CNN reporter Katelyn Polantz revealed on Monday that former FBI Director James Comey appears to be using President Donald Trump's own words against him in court.

Comey's lawyers filed a motion to dismiss Trump's prosecution against Comey because it is a "selective or vindictive prosecution," according to Polantz. In layman's terms, that means the prosecuting team is retaliating against a defendant, which courts have held is a violation of due process rights.

President Donald Trump got the all-clear from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit to deploy the Oregon National Guard to protect the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Facility in Portland — at least for the time being, while litigation continues over the matter.

The ruling was issued by a three-judge panel that included two of Trump's own appointees, Judges Ryan Nelson and Bridget Bade — overriding the decision to block the deployment made by District Judge Karin Immergut, herself a Trump appointee.

President Donald Trump's video that dumps feces on America while wearing a crown has drawn criticism since it was posted, but even MSNBC host Katy Tur is commenting that there's no comparison.

Since the shooting death of Charlie Kirk, Republican officials and activists have complained that calling out neo-Nazis, white supremacists or fascism is what is contributing to the violence against the GOP.

The Trump administration’s sweeping purge of government content that conflicts with its far-right ideological and policy project has extended to Federal Trade Commission blog posts warning about the threat that burgeoning artificial intelligence technology poses to US consumers.

Wired reported Monday that the Trump administration has, without explanation, deleted AI-related articles published by the FTC during antitrust trailblazer Lina Khan’s tenure as chair of the agency. The headlines of two of the removed posts were “Consumers Are Voicing Concerns About AI” and “AI and the Risk of Consumer Harm.”

Singer Kenny Loggins has demanded the immediate removal of his greatest hit "Danger Zone" from President Donald Trump's AI video depicting him dropping fecal matter on "No Kings" protesters, according to Variety.

Following the massive protests on Saturday, which saw an estimated 7 to 10 million protesters, the president shared a video depicting him in a fighter jet dropping what appeared to be feces on protesters to the tune of one of Loggins' greatest hits.

When President Donald Trump mass pardoned nearly all of the Jan. 6 defendants, he set in motion further legal questions about the restitution some judges ordered to be paid. But it's a little all over the place when it comes to the former defendants having their restitution dismissed.

CBS News reporter Scott MacFarlane provided a Monday update about former Rep. George Santos (R-NY) having nearly $400,000 in restitution dismissed.

Veteran Rich Osthoff was defrauded by ex-Rep. George Santos who, he claimed, set up a GoFundMe for his dying dog — and then pocketed the cash. Watching President Donald Trump free the disgraced congressman Friday has left him furious.

Speaking to MSNBC on Monday, Osthoff said he was "sick to my stomach" after hearing about Santos' commutation. "For the president of the United States to stick me in the gut with a knife, and every other veteran and every other military member gets a knife to the gut."

New Jersey U.S. Attorney Alina Habba is in court Monday to appeal a lower-court decision that she she's in the position illegitimately as she has never been confirmed by the Senate.

Politico reported last month that there are a number of examples of U.S. attorneys who have not been confirmed, besides Habba.

President Donald Trump insulted Australian Ambassador to the U.S. Kevin Rudd to his face during a meeting with the country's Prime Minister Anthony Albanese.

During a Monday appearance with Albanese at the White House, a reporter asked Trump if he was concerned with "things the ambassador said about you in the past."

While meeting with Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese Monday at the White House, President Donald Trump chided a reporter for apparently bumping into a mirror with a camera.

“You gotta watch that! You're not allowed to break that, that mirror is 400 years old!” Trump said as the White House reporters crammed into the room ahead of the president’s meeting with Albanese.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt defended answering a reporter's serious question about why President Donald Trump chose Budapest to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin by saying, "Your mom did."

In a Monday post to X, Leavitt confirmed that she had the interaction with HuffPo's S.V. Date after he pointed out that Budapest was a controversial choice because it was the country where Russia promised in 1994 not to attack Ukraine.
