A president who reshaped the Supreme Court with three of his own appointees sat in the White House today and told them — before they've ruled — that their decision would be a disgrace. The birthright citizenship ruling, expected in June, will determine whether children born on American soil to immigrant parents are automatically US citizens. The court hasn't spoken. Trump already has.

President Trump pardoned over 1,500 January 6th rioters. One of them, Andrew Paul Johnson, went on to molest two children after his release. Johnson told one of his victims he expected to receive $10 million as a January 6er — and promised them a cut to buy their silence. At a Senate hearing yesterday, Senator Van Hollen asked Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche one question: would Johnson be eligible for a payout from Trump's $1.8 billion fund? Blanche called the question a lie. Van Hollen was reading from a sworn police affidavit. Blanche never said no.

When the White House announced plans for a new East Wing ballroom in July 2025, the justification was straightforward — the building couldn't host world leaders without erecting a tent outside. The project was described as privately funded, estimated at $200 million. Today, President Trump called the roof a drone court. Between that announcement and today: the cost doubled, the US military began constructing a fortified underground complex beneath it, a bomb shelter was added, missile-resistant columns went in, and Senate Republicans requested an additional $1 billion in taxpayer funding for security upgrades. A defense contractor with $33 billion in federal contracts donated over $10 million to the project. The ballroom hasn't changed. The explanation has.

A video posted by far-right Israeli minister Itamar Ben-Gvir is drawing outrage after showing pro-Palestine activists being aggressively handled by Israeli forces following the interception of a Gaza-bound aid flotilla. The footage shows activists shoved to the ground, dragged across a port, zip-tied, and forced to kneel as armed officers restrain them. One woman shouting “Free Palestine” is grabbed and pushed face-first to the ground while screams are heard in the background.

Bill Cassidy spent five years paying the price for voting to convict Donald Trump at his impeachment trial. On Saturday, Republican voters in Louisiana ended his Senate career in one of the most decisive primary defeats of this cycle. His opponent's only distinguishing qualification was a Trump endorsement. Four days later, Cassidy walked onto the Senate floor and voted against Trump's war powers — helping advance a resolution that had failed seven times before. The party made its verdict clear on Saturday. Cassidy made his on Tuesday.

A new order bars the US government from auditing President Donald Trump, his elder sons, or the Trump Organization—permanently. Critics say it kills a pending $100M IRS case, creates a taxpayer-funded compensation pool tied to Jan. 6 defendants, and removes oversight entirely. Senators Elizabeth Warren and Chris Murphy are demanding answers, calling it unprecedented corruption and a direct attack on equal enforcement of tax law.

What was supposed to be a quick errand turned into an animal cruelty arrest in Lady Lake, Florida. A woman left her puppy locked inside a parked car at a shopping center on May 16 while she went inside — no air conditioning, direct sunlight, temperatures climbing well above 110 degrees inside the vehicle. Bodycam footage captured by officers tells the rest of the story. The puppy survived. Her owner is in custody.

Five months before the Iran war began, the Trump administration's own national security strategy described Iran's military capabilities as significantly degraded. Today, that is the exact same phrase the Pentagon used to describe what the war achieved. In a House Armed Services Committee hearing, Congressman Moulton pressed Admiral Cooper directly — if Iran was already degraded before the first bomb dropped, what exactly justified starting the war? Cooper had no answer. Fourteen Americans are dead. Twenty-nine billion dollars spent. Gas is at $4.50. And the administration still cannot explain what changed.
