ICE official may have blown court challenge with Fox interview: legal expert

A California court issued a temporary restraining order on United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on Friday as part of a lawsuit alleging that it is racially profiling people it arrests for deportation. Now, one official in President Donald Trump's administration may have jeopardized that case.

Speaking on Fox News Monday, ICE Deputy Director Madison Sheahan said, "I think we all know that criminals tend to hang out with criminals. And so as we start to build a case, we're gonna be going after everyone that's around them, because these criminals tend to hang out with like-minded people who also happen to be criminals."

'Haven't the foggiest idea': Trump's new 'weird tantrum' baffles MSNBC analyst

President Donald Trump has realized that the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking case saga is tearing apart the MAGA base — so he is trying to tamp down the conspiracy theories with a new — even more bizarre — one, Steve Benen wrote in an analysis for MSNBC.

For years, the Trump base has believed — with the encouragement of Trump himself and many people like Kash Patel who are now at the highest ranks of his law enforcement operation — that the FBI was sitting on a hidden "client list" detailing the deceased financier's ties to liberal celebrities and politicians who were presumably in on his trafficking operation. But the Justice Department's announcement this month that the case is closed and the "list" does not exist has led to many in MAGA world calling for Attorney General Pam Bondi's termination, which Trump is trying to stave off.

Trump now pushing story that's too 'nutso' even for his base: analyst

President Donald Trump's devoted fanbase is accustomed to believing whatever he tells them, even blatantly false hoaxes — but he's finally told them something that they can't accept as true, wrote Michael Tomasky for The New Republic in an analysis published on Monday.

Specifically, Trump and those in his inner circle have done a complete 180 on the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking case, spending years asserting that there was some big conspiracy to protect scores of rich and powerful people who were supposedly implicated in a "client list." Only for Attorney General Pam Bondi to clarify there is no "client list" and Epstein's death in jail was indeed a suicide, which has kicked off fury from MAGA world and calls for Trump's law enforcement team to resign — even as Trump himself begs his base to let it go.
