Venture capitalist and supporter of President Donald Trump Peter Thiel became the latest billionaire to sell off all of his stock in the tech company Nvidia, according to new reporting Monday, sparking panic that a market “bubble” centered around artificial intelligence may burst at any moment and send the market into a downward spiral.

“Uh oh,” wrote X user “Tea M.” in response to news of Thiel’s latest stock sale. “Fun times.”

President Donald Trump's choice to lead federal prosecutions in the Southern District of Florida actually flunked out of an entry-level job in that same office several years ago.

Jason Reding Quiñones was hired as a prosecutor in 2018 and placed on drug and gun cases to gain trial experience, and while most of the office's new hires eventually get promoted to more prestigious divisions, Reding Quiñones was flushed out, sources told the Washington Post.

A newly unearthed 2019 email shows that Jeffrey Epstein was aware that President Donald Trump may have been misrepresenting the value of his assets — an allegation that would get president hit with a $454 million fraud judgment in 2024.

“Trump was a frontman for money laundering, according to Epstein,” wrote Mykhailo Golub, the general manager for the consultancy firm TLFRD, in a social media post on X Sunday. Golub shared an email unearthed in the latest release of a trove of Epstein messages last week.

The growing schism between Donald Trump and some of his most ardent supporters is the first shot in a coming war within the Republican Party as his more ambitious heirs to the MAGA throne start jockeying for position.

That was a warning that conservative columnist Matt Lewis attempted to share during an appearance on MS NOW, the new name for MSNBC, on Monday morning.

A former federal prosecutor predicted during a podcast interview on Sunday that the Department of Justice's "extraordinary" case against former FBI Director James Comey will either fall apart — or Attorney General Pam Bondi will get "completely destroyed" by the court's findings.

Last week, Trump-appointed attorney Lindsey Halligan, who is currently prosecuting Comey on two counts of obstruction of justice and lying to Congress, was ordered to turn over tapes of her interactions with grand jury members. The court's order happened at a time when experts expressed skepticism about the legality of Halligan's appointment.

President Donald Trump called on Republicans to vote to release the Jeffrey Epstein files in a long-winded Truth Social post late Sunday night.

Trump's comments come after the administration has resisted calls to release the files for months, despite Trump promising on the campaign trail to release them soon after assuming office. The House of Representatives is expected to vote on releasing the files as early as Tuesday, and the legislation's path through the Senate seems uncertain.

Hundreds of people in New York City gathered on Sunday in Union Square with calls to “Tax the Rich” as they showed their support for the progressive agenda of mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani, the democratic socialist elected earlier this month, who will take the helm of the nation’s largest city on January 1.

The “Tax the Rich — Seize Our Future” event was co-sponsored by the New York City chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America, Housing Justice For All and NYS Tenant Bloc, Jewish Voice for Peace NYC, UAW Region 9A, the Invest in Our New Coalition, and others.

President Donald Trump's attack on Rep. Thomas Massie's (R-KY) late wife incensed one analyst on Sunday, who described the attacks as "repulsive" and "grotesque."

In October, Massie announced he had remarried after his previous wife passed away in June 2024. On November 14, Trump appeared to attack Massie's late wife in a Truth Social post, saying, "Boy, that was quick," even though the wedding was about 16 months after she died.

The walls appear to be "closing in" around President Donald Trump as a bipartisan coalition of lawmakers prepares to force the president to fulfill one of the central promises from his 2024 campaign, according to one analyst.

House lawmakers are planning to vote on a discharge petition to force the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files, which Trump has spent a lot of political capital to avoid. Recently released documents painted an unsavory picture of Trump's relationship with Epstein before he ran for office, and directly undercut claims the president and Epstein's associate, Ghislaine Maxwell, have made about the case.

President Donald Trump's niece issued a startling warning on Sunday about the president as he tries to navigate the renewed pressure to release the Jeffrey Epstein files.

Next week, House lawmakers are expected to vote on a discharge petition to force the administration to release the files. The vote follows several days of leaks from House Democrats, who publicized emails and other documents that painted an unsavory picture of Trump's relationship with Epstein before Trump entered politics.

President Donald Trump's lawyers have asked the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals to pause an order prohibiting him from sending federal troops to protect immigration agents in Portland, Oregon, according to a new report.

On Sunday, the administration filed a 494-page appeal of District Judge Karin Immergut's order that found the Trump administration did not establish that the right conditions exist to justify deploying troops, reported Josh Gerstein, senior legal affairs reporter for Politico. Trump has described Portland as a "war zone," although media reports indicate the protests against Trump's deportation operations have been peaceful.

President Donald Trump made a startling claim about his administration's strikes on drug boats in international waters on Sunday while speaking to reporters at Palm Beach International Airport.

So far, the administration has conducted at least 21 strikes, killing around 90 people. The administration has claimed they are striking drug runners who are bringing drugs into the U.S., although it has provided scant evidence to support the claim. Reporting indicates that the Trump administration has also refused to arrest some survivors of the strikes, which has led experts to question the legality of the operations.

Prices have risen so high at fast food landmark McDonald's under President Donald Trump's leadership that " traffic from one of its core customer bases, low-income households, has dropped by double digits," reports the LA Times.

"The struggle of the Golden Arches — long synonymous with cheap food for the masses — reflects a larger trend upending the consumer economy and making 'affordability' a hot policy topic," writes Suhauna Hussein.
