A former federal prosecutor was taken aback on Monday by a jury's "staggering new rebuke" of one of President Donald Trump's hand-picked prosecutors.

Last week, a federal jury acquitted a 33-year-old man named Jacob Winkler after Trump's Department of Justice charged him with crimes stemming from shining a green laser at the presidential helicopter last year. The case was brought by former Fox News host Jeanine Pirro, who currently serves as the U.S. Attorney for Washington, D.C., and the jury deliberated for just 35 minutes, according to reports.

A major decision was handed down on Monday that will make it harder for Democrats to hold the Trump administration accountable for conditions inside Immigration and Customs Enforcement facilities, according to a new report.

U.S. District Court Judge Jia M. Cobb declined to block a new Department of Homeland Security policy that limits when Congressional lawmakers can visit ICE facilities, The Denver Post reported. The new rules require lawmakers to give at least 7 days' notice before visits. Democrats like Reps. Jason Crow (D-CO) and Joe Neguse (D-CO) have challenged the rules in court.

The family of a man in St. Paul, Minnesota, who President Donald Trump's immigration agents detained on a snowy day while he was wearing only his underwear, spoke out on Monday and categorically denied many of the claims the administration made about the incident.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents raided the home of ChongLy Scott Thao on Sunday and detained Thao and two other individuals with whom he lives. After they were released, Department of Homeland Security spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin posted a lengthy statement on X saying ICE officers had targeted two sex offenders at the residence, both of whom remain at large.

Former GOP strategist Rick Wilson unleashed a scathing attack Monday on Donald Trump, calling the former president a threat to American democracy itself, and making the case for forcible removal if Trump doesn't willingly leave.

In a fiery piece titled "Declaration of Independence From The Mad King," Wilson ripped into Trump for treating the presidency as a "personal franchise" designed for revenge, profit, and self-protection. The political operative pulled no punches, accusing Trump of replacing law with loyalty and governance with grievance.

Right-wing podcaster Katie Miller was roundly mocked on Monday after she attempted to chide one of President Donald Trump's biggest rivals on social media, according to a new report.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom's office announced that he will travel to Davos, a popular conference for the world's economic elites, and tell the crowd what he thinks of Trump. Newsom and Trump have squabbled in the past over Trump's attempts to federalize the state's National Guard troops and his administration's immigration policies.

It appears President Donald Trump has been able to keep one of his most odious campaign promises, according to one analyst.

In 2024, Trump made major promises to bring down the cost of living for Americans and to release the FBI's investigation files into disgraced financier and convicted sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein. However, neither of those promises has been kept, according to a new article from Nathalie Baptiste, a senior reporter on HuffPost's national desk.

Fans of President Donald Trump's MAGA movement fumed on Monday after a former CNN host accused them of reinforcing 'white supremacy."

Former CNN host Don Lemon discussed MAGA's response to a Sunday morning protest at a church in St. Paul, Minnesota, during a podcast interview on Monday, where he described the movement's response as "entitled" and said that it stems from a "white supremacy" belief that America was founded as a white, Christian nation.

President Donald Trump melted down in a Truth Social post on Monday over claims that his ex-fixer was "coerced" into providing testimony against him.

Michael Cohen, the former counsel for The Trump Organization, testified against Trump in New York Attorney General Letitia James' civil fraud case, which ended with Trump being charged with 34 felonies. In a Substack essay published Friday, Cohen claimed the government pressured him to provide "information and testimony that would satisfy the government’s desire to build the cases against and secure a judgment and convictions against President Trump."

Ex-CNN host Don Lemon didn't hold back on Monday when discussing the latest "intimidation tactic" President Donald Trump is trying to use against him.

Lemon discussed Trump's response to a protest he attended at a church in St. Paul on Sunday morning during an interview on the IHIP News podcast. Lemon was one of dozens of protesters who entered Cities Church in St. Paul church, whose pastor is allegedly the local Immigration and Customs Enforcement field officer, and shouted "ICE out!"

President Donald Trump amplified a call for a former CNN host to be sentenced to 40 years in prison for attending a protest at a church in Minneapolis on Sunday.

Don Lemon, who hosted CNN's "Don Lemon Tonight" from 2014 to 2022, attended a protest on Sunday morning organized by anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement activists at Cities Church in St. Paul, whose pastor, David Easterwood, appears to also lead the agency's local field office.

President Donald Trump is stuck in an immigration enforcement nightmare with no good options in sight, according to a political analyst.

Anti-ICE protests are escalating, with protesters even storming a Minnesota church service over a pastor's alleged ICE connections, while activists elsewhere attacked a conservative influencer and blocked the arrest of a suspected child predator. The administration is not amused, noted Rachel Bade, author of The Inner Circle newsletter. And Trump faces a "lose-lose situation" when it comes to the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
