Investigative journalist and author Kurt Eichenwald, a former New York Times reporter, revealed suspicions that a wrongly deported Maryland man "has already been murdered."

Eichenwald wrote about his theory on the Blue Sky social media platform on Thursday.

Three law school professors are disputing a claim from President Donald Trump's administration that information regarding immigrants sent to an El Salvador prison is classified.

In court last month, the Trump administration invoked the “state secrets” privilege when a federal judge demanded information about immigrants deported to an El Salvador prison under the Alien Enemies Act, reported CBS News.

Noted investment expert Steve Rattner had nothing but bad news for billionaire Elon Musk and Wall Street investors who have been hanging onto their shares of Tesla stock as the value of the shares keeps spiraling downward.

During an appearance on MSNBC's "Morning Joe," Rattner used enlarged charts showing a bevy of downward trends and directly linked the collapse –– dubbed "Tesla tanking" –– to Musk's highly unpopular relationship with Donald Trump.

One major concern he noted, was that, at a time when EV sales are seeing a swing upward, Tesla sales are heading in the opposite direction.

Pointing to his graphs, he began, "See here that Tesla in its early years had huge sales increases, as you would expect, very popular. One of the few makers of really good electric vehicles (EV) in the country. But beginning in 2025. its sales kind of stagnated, a combination of really two reasons. One, some competition, more competition from other people trying to get in the business, including domestic manufacturers and also the fact that people are getting their models Y and S, two of their most popular models, are getting a little bit long in the tooth, so to speak."

MSNBC "Morning Joe" co-host Mika Brzezinski went off on a brutal rant on Thursday morning aimed at the conservative media for smearing critics of Donald Trump's harsh immigration policies.

Using the abduction and shipping of Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia to an El Salvador maximum security prison without due process which has led to criticism as a springboard, the MSNBC host pointed out that criticism of Trump's policies have come from both liberals and conservatives –– including hosts on Fox News and the Wall Street Journal editorial board.

Donald Trump was up early on Thursday morning, launching a fresh attack on Fed chair Jerome Powell for ignoring his demand to lower interest rates while threatening him with termination.

In apparent reaction to reports that the European Central Bank (ECB) is poised to cut interest rates for the seventh time in a year today, the president –– reeling from criticism about his handling of the economy –– tried to shift the blame to Powell.

Coming a day after Powell instead warned about the tariff war Trump began, and stated, "Without price stability, we cannot achieve the long periods of strong labor market conditions that benefit all Americans,” hinting at no rate reduction on the horizon, Trump flipped out on Truth Social.

Early Thursday, he wrote, "The ECB is expected to cut interest rates for the 7th time, and yet, 'Too Late' Jerome Powell of the Fed, who is always TOO LATE AND WRONG, yesterday issued a report which was another, and typical, complete 'mess!'"

He then insisted that, "Oil prices are down, groceries (even eggs!) are down, and the USA is getting RICH ON TARIFFS. Too Late should have lowered Interest Rates, like the ECB, long ago, but he should certainly lower them now."

Nora Aunor, considered by many Filipinos as their country's greatest actor and singer, has died aged 71, the government and her family said Thursday.

Proclaimed a "National Artist for Film and Broadcast Arts" by the Philippines in 2022, the once child snack vendor will be honoured with a state funeral.

U.S. District Judge James Boasberg has the tools to proceed with criminal contempt charges against President Donald Trump's administration — and can also enforce a sentence if they are found guilty, a legal analyst said Wednesday.

Slate senior writer Mark Joseph Stern addressed Boasberg's ruling regarding the government's response to his court order.
