Donald Trump’s use of FCC chair Brendan Carr to rid himself of major network critics is turning into a “game of chicken” where he doesn’t seem to understand that he has more to lose, according to an analyst.

During an appearance on MSNBC with host Anna Cabrera, Deadline Hollywood editor Dominic Patten claimed there is still an ongoing debate among execs at ABC/Disney about when to bring popular host Jimmy Kimmel back and if they did the right thing by putting his show on “indefinite” hiatus.

President Donald Trump received a harsh rebuke Friday after a federal judge struck down his $15 billion lawsuit against the New York Times for defamation, granting the president exactly 28 days to amend his complaint or abandon it entirely.

“A complaint is not a megaphone for public relations or a podium for a passionate oration at a political rally or the functional equivalent of the Hyde Park Speakers’ Corner,” wrote Middle District of Florida Judge Steven Merryday in his ruling Friday.

Republican pollster Christine Matthews believes she has discovered a potential game-changing demographic for the 2026 midterms: women who wear weighted vests.

Matthews, president of Bellwether Research, told Politico that a new faction of swing voters has emerged after observing large numbers of women sporting the latest wellness trend in suburban areas.

Multiple legal experts are expressing alarm at a new report that US President Donald Trump is planning to fire a federal prosecutor for failing to bring criminal charges against New York Attorney General Letitia James.

ABC News reported on Thursday night that Trump planned to fire Erik Siebert, the US attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, because he could not find sufficient evidence to conclude that James had committed mortgage fraud when she bought a home in the state in 2023.

The New York Times accused Trump of wielding some ugly free speech to bury the First Amendment rights of others.

“Trump and his aides tell … a false [story]. They claim that political violence comes mostly from the left. … In fact, multiple data sources show that neither side has a monopoly on political violence, but it is more likely to come from the right,” the Times reported Friday.

Nearly 600 nonprofits, labor unions, charitable organizations, and advocacy groups in the United States have issued an open letter directed at the administration of President Donald Trump that calls for an end to the exploitation of Charlie Kirk’s recent murder by saying it is both “un-American and wrong to use this act of violence as a pretext for weaponizing the government to threaten” groups, individuals, or “any class of people” in the wake of a lone crime which they had nothing to do with and have condemned unequivocally.

In the days following Kirk’s assassination in Utah, allegedly carried out by a lone gunman identified as Tyler Robinson, whose exact political ideology and motivations remain murky, Trump himself and many of his top lieutenants in the executive branch—including Vice President JD Vance, White House advisor Stephen Miller, and Attorney General Pam Bondi—have sought to blame what they characterize as the broad “radical left” for the violent attack.
