Rep. Melanie Stansbury (D-NM) is demanding answers regarding a disturbing tip received by the FBI in 2016 that includes allegations of the “sexual exploitation of a minor” involving President Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein.

“Why are folks not asking more questions about this FBI complaint in the Epstein Files?” Stansbury wrote early Saturday morning in a social media post on X, alongside a link to an FBI tip that was published last month by the Justice Department.

“I would not want to be in the Oval Office right now.”

That came from one Donald Trump insider on Friday after the Supreme Court delivered what a former Trump official called a “stunning defeat” to the president’s ability to levy tariffs, just days before his State of the Union address which is already under a cloud.

President Donald Trump issued a not-so-subtle message to members of his own party late Friday night, firing off an angry post on Truth Social after a Supreme Court ruling dealt his MAGA tariff agenda a devastating blow.

In the post, Trump appeared to target conservatives who sided with the majority opinion, including two justices he personally appointed to the high court, Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett.

CNN anchor Abby Phillip repeatedly sparred Friday night with a conservative podcast host during a tense debate over presidential tariff powers following the White House’s devastating Supreme Court loss.

The argument ignited when Anthony Esposito, who co-hosts the “Policy & Profits” podcast, dismissed the court’s conclusion that tariffs function as taxes.

The Justice Department said Friday that a newly appointed interim U.S. attorney in Virginia was fired just hours after federal judges selected him to lead the influential office, triggering a fresh clash between the judiciary and the Trump administration.

According to CNN, judges in the Eastern District of Virginia unanimously appointed veteran defense attorney James Hundley to serve as interim U.S. attorney after Trump loyalist Lindsey Halligan was forced out last month.

The Trump-Kennedy Center was hit by what officials described as a “calculated, malicious attack” Friday after a toxic substance was poured across its outdoor ice rink, forcing the cancellation of a scheduled performance, according to Fox News.

A center official said a dark brown-black substance was deliberately spread across the ice surface, severely damaging the outdoor rink. Images from the scene show a large section of the ice covered with the substance, and a plastic gallon-size jug left behind.

A legal scholar on Friday zeroed in on Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s dissent in the Supreme Court’s sweeping tariff ruling, saying it stood out not just for its shaky legal footing but for how closely it mirrored the government’s arguments.

In an interview on CNN, NYU law professor Ryan Goodman said he was struck by Kavanaugh’s role in the three-justice dissent – and by how the majority responded to it.

A legal scholar and former Pentagon official warned Friday that President Donald Trump’s attacks on the Supreme Court following his tariff defeat could send a troubling signal across the court system.

Appearing on CNN, NYU professor Ryan Goodman, a former Department of Defense special counsel, said Trump’s rhetoric toward the justices in the aftermath of his sweeping loss at the high court was “very disturbing and unfair.”

An irate President Donald Trump wasn't finished blasting the Supreme Court over his tariff loss, unleashing yet another fiery tirade on Truth Social, expressing his fury at two of his own Supreme Court appointees for what he characterized as a courtroom betrayal.

Trump took direct aim at right-wing Justices Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett, claiming they sided against Republicans in a decision he views as catastrophic.

President Donald Trump lashed out again Friday evening at members of the Supreme Court who voted against his tariff policy, calling their decision "ridiculous" and vowing to work around the loss.

The Supreme Court struck down Trump’s sweeping emergency tariffs in a 6–3 decision authored by conservative Chief Justice John Roberts. The justices held that the underlying statute does not clearly authorize such broad unilateral tariff powers, marking a major rebuke of a signature second-term economic policy.

President Donald Trump made it official on Friday night, signing into effect a revised version of his global tariff regime mere hours after the Supreme Court invalidated his use of emergency economic powers.

Trump made the announcement on his Truth Social platform.

The Supreme Court’s sweeping decision invalidating most of President Donald Trump’s tariffs is more than a legal defeat – it’s a warning sign for the long-term viability of Trumpism itself, according to a new analysis in The New Republic.

Trump’s devastating Supreme Court loss – backed by two of his hand-picked justices – signals that the foundations of his populist nationalist agenda are beginning to crack, wrote columnist Greg Sargent.

Republican leaders are facing a new political dilemma – thanks to the Supreme Court’s devastating blow to President Donald Trump’s tariff agenda.

The ruling means any future votes on tariffs "will no longer be symbolic" as Congress will now be forced to decide whether to restore the president’s signature policy through legislation, according to Axios.
