Trump’s Justice Department is making the chain of command pretty clear. Todd Blanche won’t promise independence from the president, while the administration eases scrutiny on shell companies and redirects fraud enforcement toward smaller targets. Meanwhile, the Trump family’s crypto empire pushes deeper into banking and AI — and Truth Social’s latest money-making scheme is raising fresh legal questions.

From sailors pushed to the brink aboard an overstretched Navy to a depleted drone fleet and mysterious attacks on fishing boats near the Galápagos, America’s war machine is showing serious cracks. And now, reporting points to a covert CIA operation behind those strikes. So we’re asking: Is the CIA open for business?

Primary night shook up both parties, with incumbents falling, progressives scoring wins, and Trump-backed candidates taking some major hits. Meanwhile, the bigger fight is over the election itself. A federal judge blocked Trump’s mail-in voting restrictions as Trump openly floats using emergency powers to influence the midterms and DHS ramps up its voter-fraud crusade. The battle over who votes—and who controls the rules—is just getting started.

Jared Kushner’s luxury resort plans in Albania are running into some very inconvenient problems — including disputed land, a suspected gangster, and a newly revealed letter raising fresh questions about how the deal came together. We break down the fight over one of Albania’s most valuable stretches of coastline, the characters standing in Kushner’s way, and why this latest Trump-family business venture is starting to look a lot messier than the glossy renderings suggest.

Trump’s foreign policy is losing ground on every front. Netanyahu rejects his Gaza plan, Iran keeps the Strait of Hormuz shut while forcing Washington back toward the negotiating table, and the Pentagon is scrambling to replenish weapons depleted by the war. For all the talk of strength and leverage, America suddenly looks like it’s reacting—not dictating.

Lisa Murkowski may be a no, but Bill Cassidy just gave Todd Blanche the lifeline he needed. After weeks of uncertainty, the vote count finally appears to be there for Blanche’s Attorney General confirmation. We break down the last-minute Senate maneuvering before August recess, then turn to Trump’s newest executive orders targeting birthright citizenship and so-called “birth tourism” — another major constitutional fight headed straight for the courts.

The campaign against Anthony Fauci is no longer just about relitigating COVID — it’s about sending a message to scientists who dare step into public service. With Senate Republicans pushing contempt charges, threatening jail, digging through Fauci’s phone and private writings, the political hunt has entered a new phase. We break down the effort to turn Fauci into a villain, what his private diary actually reveals, and why the real casualty of this crusade may be America’s willingness to put scie...

The Democratic Party’s internal war is heating up. Abdul El-Sayed’s Michigan primary win signals growing momentum for the party’s populist wing, while House Democrats gamble on Trump-won districts in their fight for Congress. Meanwhile, Trump turns on Big Oil, spirals over the Reflecting Pool prosecution, threatens Jeanine Pirro, demands changes to his brand-new helipad, and faces Republican resistance to Todd Blanche’s nomination for attorney general.

These cameras don’t just read license plates—they track where you go, store your movements, falsely accuse innocent people, and give rogue cops a nationwide stalking tool. As misuse spreads and communities push back, our message is simple: flock those Flock cams.

The Trump administration insists its controversial $1.8 billion IRS settlement fund is dead—but Republicans still can’t seem to say that clearly. We break down Todd Blanche’s written assurances to GOP senators, the evasive answers on Capitol Hill, and Capital One’s claim that money-laundering concerns helped drive the underlying lawsuit. Then, we examine how some of America’s most powerful law firms went from resisting Trump’s pressure campaign to bending the knee—using Paul Weiss as a case stu...

As the U.S.-Iran war expands, the American people still aren’t getting the full story. Pentagon records appear to undercount U.S. troop deaths, lawmakers are demanding answers from Pete Hegseth, and Congress remains divided over whether Trump can continue the war without its approval. Meanwhile, Iran rejects another cease-fire proposal, suspected Russian involvement raises new questions, and the Houthis open yet another front in a conflict with no clear end in sight.

Today, we look at how the Trump family’s money-making operation is becoming more sophisticated. From the president buying stocks and then promoting the companies on Truth Social, to Wall Street firms paying for faster access to his posts, political influence is now being packaged and sold in real time. We also examine Donald Trump Jr.’s investment fund, its eye-popping returns, and the billions in federal funding flowing to companies it has backed—while House Republicans attach a watered-down st...
