President Donald Trump's nominee to be assistant secretary of state for international organizations reportedly deleted thousands of inflammatory posts that praised Jan. 6 rioters and called for the execution of American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten.

In a report on Thursday, CNN said that Jeremy Carl's posts were uncovered even though he deleted them from X and asked for them to be removed from the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine.

An unusual directive demanding all U.S. generals and admirals report to Washington, D.C. for a meeting is raising alarm, according to a report.

The order, which comes from Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, "applies to all senior officers with the rank of brigadier general or above, or their Navy equivalent, serving in command positions and their top enlisted advisers."

Conservative activist Gabriel Nadales, a former antifa associate, admitted that he was not paid while working with the anti-fascist movement despite President Donald Trump's suggestion that a network of left-leaning groups provided funding.

During a Thursday interview on Real America's Voice, Nadales threw cold water on the president's claim that antifa was a terrorist "organization."

President Donald Trump's most popular cabinet official has been plummeting in public approval as he takes aim at a broadly accepted policy.

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will conduct a new review of abortion pills, the latest move taking aim at health care matters that has included vaccine mandates and Tylenol use by pregnant women that Americans had come to take for granted as uncontroversial.

The latest episode of South Park took aim at Federal Communications Commission Chair Brendan Carr in the wake of the short-lived ousting of comedian Jimmy Kimmel last week, an event Carr helped facilitate. It sparked right-wing fury online, with many commenters suggesting the episode could lead to real-world violence.

“This is the same garbage rhetoric that got Charlie Kirk killed!” wrote X user “Armitas,” a self-described “Christian conservative” with close to 2,000 followers, including Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY), in response to the episode. “What are you thinking????”

With polling showing support for Donald Trump in freefall, young Trump voters were pressed by the New York Times to give the embattled president a report card after eight months on the job.

While not condemnatory, they were far from glowing. The Times held a focus group with 11 young adults between the ages of 28 and 33, focusing on the direction of the country under Trump. He was described as being “reckless” by one participant, while another, identified as a Republican from Georgia, stating, “The way that he’s been handling things recently, dictatorship.”

Nearly two years into the war in Gaza, a Florida Republican proposes to ban state agencies from mentioning the West Bank, the Israeli-occupied Palestinian territory, and enforce “Judea and Samaria” as the official name for the Middle Eastern battleground.

Rep. Chase Tramont, a Port Orange Republican, introduced HB 31 Tuesday in hopes of replacing the “West Bank” phrase with the biblical name for the regions north and south of Jerusalem and widely used by right-wing Israelis to describe the Jordan River territory.

Public high schools in Oklahoma are being ordered to partner with Turning Point USA, the right-wing group founded by activist Charlie Kirk — and threatened with being stripped of their accreditation if they don’t comply.

Ryan Walters, the state’s superintendent of public instruction, released a video address on Tuesday saying that “every Oklahoma high school will have a Turning Point USA chapter.”

Attorney General Pam Bondi has been feuding internally with the top two officials at the FBI over their shared handling of the Jeffrey Epstein matter that's continuing to hound President Donald Trump.

Bondi has faced months of criticism for refusing to release new information about the late sex offender's case, which inflamed the president's MAGA base and remains a lingering political issue for the president, and the Wall Street Journal reported on infighting over the issue at the top levels of government.

While the Environmental Protection Agency has touted tens of millions of dollars in savings under the direction of the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, newly-obtained emails paint a very different story, and one that EPA leadership privately admitted was less favorable than they were saying in public.

Lee Zeldin, President Donald Trump’s pick to head the EPA during his second term, proudly bragged on social media in February that with DOGE’s help, he had cancelled $67 million in “wasteful [diversity, equity and inclusion] and environmental justice grants.” And yet, according to internal emails obtained and reported on by Notus, internal discussions show that the agency was well aware the figures were inaccurate.

While news about the Department of Government Efficiency has disappeared from the headlines, as the White House deals with the Jeffrey Epstein files scandal and a looming government shutdown, the damage the Elon Musk-inspired agency did is not getting better.

According to a new report from the New York Times, the damage done to the Social Security Administration is extensive and deep, with offices woefully understaffed, calls going unanswered and remaining employees barely hanging on.

President Donald Trump doesn't understand the intense public interest in his former associate Jeffrey Epstein's sex crimes, and he's furious that his administration officials and outside allies have been unable to make the issue go away.

The issue exploded back into the public consciousness in July after the Department of Justice and FBI announced no further evidence about the case would be released despite Trump's campaign promises to expose others involved in the sex trafficking network.

CNN hit back at a conservative guest Wednesday as it met his accusations that left-wing rhetoric was sparking violent incidents with a brutal supercut of President Donald Trump's most incendiary attacks.

During a heated debate on CNN NewsNight, guest Ben Ferguson specifically referenced the assassination of Charlie Kirk and attacks on ICE facilities. Ferguson criticized Democratic leaders like Gavin Newsom for describing ICE agents as "authoritarian" and potentially inciting further violence.
