Fox News host Lara Trump defended his father-in-law's latest decision to blow up Venezuelan boat loading facilities by insisting strikes on foreign territory were "what the American people voted for."

After President Donald Trump confirmed the strike on a Venezuelan port, Lara Trump spoke Tuesday with "Fox & Friends" co-host Lawrence Jones about the attack.

Taking up the prospect that the members of Congress could file charges of inherent contempt against Attorney General Pam Bondi over her slow-walking the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files, former U.S. Attorney Joyce Vance warned she is putting her legal career at serious risk.

On her Substack platform, Vance explained that inherent contempt is an appropriate and necessary threat to make in order to get Bondi, a former Florida AG and lobbyist, to comply with the law signed by none other than Donald Trump.

A conservative columnist attempted to explain the difference between respect and fear in an open letter to President Donald Trump.

The Bulwark's Mona Charen noted a comment the president made earlier this month in an Oval Office address that touched on his longstanding obsession with being respected, but she said that Trump fundamentally misunderstood the concept.

A former federal judge laid into the Supreme Court'st conservative majority on MS NOW on Tuesday morning for allowing the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, known as ICE, to run roughshod over the Constitution.

Former judge Nancy Gertner expanded on an opinion piece she wrote for The Atlantic, where she argued, “Much of what ICE is doing is not remotely constitutional [and] the Court decisions that laid the groundwork for the agency’s lawlessness no longer stand up to basic scrutiny,” and she claimed the court is failing in its duty to rein in the out-of-control agency headed by DHS Director Kristi Noem.

Lara Trump got fully behind the idea of imposing at least one year of mandatory military service for every American during an appearance Tuesday on Fox News, comparing it favorably to Israel’s own conscription policy.

“You look at Israel, every Israeli citizen has to dedicate themselves to serving their country,” said the president's daughter in law, who was co-hosting “Fox & Friends.”

Since the Trump administration took office in January, the Social Security Administration has experienced significant deterioration following cuts by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Caseload backlogs have swelled to over 6 million, and applicants now face substantial obstacles in obtaining basic information.

According to a Washington Post report, "Long-strained customer services at Social Security have become worse by many key measures." Employees who were not terminated or resigned in response to the changes have been reassigned between departments with minimal training for their new roles, further compromising service delivery.

As the report notes, those efficiencies put in place by DOGE staffers have left the agency in “turmoil" as multiple commissioners have come and gone, leading to “record backlogs that have delayed basic services to millions of customers, according to internal agency documents and dozens of interviews.”
