President Donald Trump on Monday called for Disney and ABC to fire late-night host Jimmy Kimmel after he said First Lady Melania Trump had “a glow like an expectant widow” in a monologue that preceded a shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump wrote: “Wow, Jimmy Kimmel, who is in no way funny as attested to by his terrible Television Ratings, made a statement on his Show that is really shocking. He showed a fake video of the First Lady, Melania, and our son, Barron, like they were actually sitting in his studio, listening to him speak, which they weren’t, and never would be. He then stated, ‘Our First Lady, Melania, is here. Look at Melania, so beautiful. Mrs. Trump, you have a glow like an expectant widow.’ A day later a lunatic tried entering the ballroom of the White House Correspondents Dinner, loaded up with a shotgun, handgun, and many knives. He was there for a very obvious and sinister reason.”

“I appreciate that so many people are incensed by Kimmel’s despicable call to violence, and normally would not be responsive to anything that he said but, this is something far beyond the pale. Jimmy Kimmel should be immediately fired by Disney and ABC. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP,” the president said.

What, if anything, was left of Norah O’Donnell’s credibility went up in flames on Sunday when the 60 Minutes correspondent repeated an alleged would-be assassin’s baseless accusations against President Donald Trump without hesitation.

Cole Allen, the 31-year-old armed man who allegedly stormed a Secret Service checkpoint at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, where Trump, members of his administration, and thousands of guests were wined and dined, was not shy in his manifesto about hoping to murder the president and his cabinet.

“I am no longer willing to permit a pedophile, rapist, and traitor to coat my hands with his crimes,” Allen reportedly wrote.

In her sit-down with Trump just one day after the latest assassination attempt, O’Donnell repeated the line with a straight face.

“What’s your reaction to that?” O’Donnell said, after remarking that the manifesto was a “stunning thing to read.”

It didn’t take long for the White House and its MAGA allies to try to use the attempted shooting at the White House Correspondents Dinner to push all sorts of items on their agenda.

The one that has gotten the most attention is the call for the White House ballroom to be built, even though the project is illegal and has nothing to do with the incident at a private event on private property.

House Oversight Committee Chair Rep. James Comer (R-KY) demanded that the DHS be funded in a post on X, even though the Secret Service was funded last year as a part of Trump’s tax cuts for the rich that Comer voted for.

One can easily see why Trump would want a distraction at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. I’m not saying I know what happened, just it’s the kinda thing someone who looks this horrific politically would want.

Trump’s numbers aren’t just bad. I worked in polling a while, I’ve never seen numbers like some of these. Famed strategist Joe Trippi has been running national campaigns since 1979, and had a one-sentence verdict: “I have not seen anything like this in the entire time I’ve been doing this.” Trump’s approval with independents is 27%—a number not seen since Nixon was resigning.

He’s down to 70% with Republicans. Tucker, MTG, Megyn–they may be FOS, but if they’re headed where the wind’s blowing, many MAGA nuts are taking the same ride. Latino support’s moving away from Trump at a pace veteran strategist Mike Madrid–an expert on this demo–says he’s never seen before. We’re favored in places like Alaska right now.

The incident occurred on October 28 outside the ICE detention facility in Durango, Colorado.

A Colorado district attorney has filed third-degree assault and criminal mischief charges against a US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officer stemming from an anti-ICE protest outside a federal immigration facility in October of last year. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) described the charges as “unlawful,” saying they were filed as a “political stunt.”

Democratic District Attorney Sean P. Murray for the Sixth District of Colorado announced the two-count indictment in a Tuesday press release, identifying the Border Patrol agent as Nicholas Rice. The incident occurred on October 28 outside the ICE detention facility in Durango, Colorado, during which Rice was responding to a hostile anti-ICE protest following the apprehension of a man who was arrested while taking his children to school. The subject was later released by ICE after agents wrongly identified him, an official said.

Video evidence shows the alleged victim, Anne Francesca Stagi, putting a phone up to Rice’s face before he allegedly knocked it out of her hand. Stagi then appears to make physical contact with the officer as he began to walk away, grabbing his shoulder. Rice turned around, grabbed Stagi with other federal agents, and brought her to the ground.

Beijing slammed on Monday an EU plan aimed to bolster the bloc’s industries against fierce competition from China, vowing countermeasures if it is enacted.

The EU unveiled in March new “Made in Europe” rules for companies trying to access public funds in strategic sectors including cars, green tech and steel, obliging firms to meet minimum thresholds for EU-made parts.

The proposal, held up for months by wrangling over the measures, is a key part of a European Union drive to regain its competitive edge, reduce its industrial decline and stave off hundreds of thousands of job losses.

Beijing’s commerce ministry said on Monday that it had submitted comments to the European Commission on Friday, expressing China’s “serious concerns” regarding the act it called “systemic discrimination“.

WASHINGTON — The latest U.S. military strike on a boat accused of ferrying drugs in the eastern Pacific Ocean killed three people Sunday, according to a social media post by U.S. Southern Command.

The Trump administration’s campaign of blowing up alleged drug-trafficking vessels in Latin American waters has gone on since early September and killed at least 186 people in total. Other strikes have taken place in the Caribbean Sea.

The military has not provided evidence that any of the vessels were carrying drugs.

After Sunday’s attack, Southern Command posted a video on X showing a boat moving swiftly in the water before a explosion left it in flames. It repeated previous statements by saying it had targeted the alleged drug traffickers along known smuggling routes.

The attacks began as the U.S. built up its largest military presence in the region in generations and came months ahead of the raid in January that captured then-Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro. He was brought to New York to face drug trafficking charges and has pleaded not guilty.

ABC late night host Jimmy Kimmel is facing criticism for joking about President Donald Trump’s impending death just days before a would-be assassin attempted to assassinate him and senior cabinet officials. The latest shooting marked the third serious attempt on Trump’s life in under two years.

On Thursday’s installment of Jimmy Kimmel Live, the titular host held a mock White House Correspondents’ dinner ahead of the actual event, which was set to take place at the Washington Hilton Hotel on Saturday night. Saturday’s event was notable, as it marked the first time Trump had been in attendance across either of his terms in the White House.

Kimmel explained that he was stepping in because President Donald Trump had declined to have a comedian perform, describing the president as “a delicate snowflake with the thinnest fat skin of any human being ever” and “a trembling drama queen who’s scared of comedy.”

Republican infighting between two important constituencies — the agriculture sector and the MAHA coalition — is threatening passage of a bill leaders are counting on to help woo rural voters ahead of the midterms.

House GOP leaders hope this week to advance a long-stalled farm bill that would secure a slew of industry and rural investments. They see a political incentive to move quickly now to shore up farm country support in advance of the November elections, plus heed calls from President Donald Trump to “PASS THE FARM BILL, NOW!”

The farm bill traditionally comes to the floor with bipartisan support. But House Democrats this time are largely opposed to the package because it does not reverse the massive cuts to the country’s largest food aid program enacted by last year’s GOP megabill. That’s putting extra under pressure on Republicans to see it over the finish line amid intraparty disagreements over provisions related to pesticides, livestock laws and ethanol sales.

US President Donald Trump sparked health fears after a mysterious ‘bulge’ was spotted during a recent interview. The 79-year-old had been appearing on 60 Minutes with Norah O’Donnell to discuss the dramatic security scare at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, where an armed suspect attempted to breach a checkpoint outside the venue.

However, while the conversation focused on the attempted attack, attention quickly shifted online to a still image from the broadcast. The photo, which shows Mr Trump seated during the interview, has been widely circulated on social media, with users pointing to what they described as an ‘unusual protrusion beneath his suit’. The image has garnered significant traction on X, prompting a flurry of adult nappy allegations. One user wrote: “That’s a giant diaper he’s got on,” while another asked: “What is going on with his rump? Very unnatural.” A third added: “Colostomy bag? Full Depends? God only knows…” Others highlighted additional details, with one commenting: “That’s what happens when you’re on a McDonald’s diet and have incontinence.”

The media elites are traumatized by the events at the White House Correspondents Dinner, and they will not stop talking about it. The problem is that they were never in any real danger, unlike people in the United States who experience real gun violence in cities, towns, schools, churches, restaurants, grocery stores, movie theaters, concerts, dance clubs, neighborhoods, and their own homes every single day all across the country.

It has been less than a day since a gunman tried to enter the White House Correspondents Dinner, and even though, according to administration officials, the gunman’s manifesto said that he wanted to kill administration officials, the American people aren’t interested in the story.

If you spend five minutes on any form of social media, you’ll soon learn that the consensus reaction is people claiming the gunman was staged, MAGAs who think a White House ballroom will solve everything, and some version of the sentiment that the American people have already seen this movie twice before, and they are bored.

The Israeli government announced on Monday that this June, “the Dead Sea becomes Pride Land, the biggest LGBTQ+ festival ever in the Middle East,” adding that “Pride rises at the lowest place on earth.”

This celebration of degeneracy and non-straight lifestyle choices — set to take place near what is believed to be the site of Sodom, the city razed by God because of its brazen sexual corruption — will run 24 hours a day from June 1 to June 4.

‘You won’t see this anywhere else in the region.’

According the Jerusalem Post, the non-straight festival will raise a city in the desert featuring parties, a central performance arena, art complexes, “relaxation” areas, and “family-friendly areas with children’s activities.”

“This is not just another festival; it’s the biggest thing we’ve done here,” Aaron Cohen, the main producer behind “Pride Land,” told the Post. “It’s an experience that lives 24/7, from quiet visits to nights of Pride, with a living envelope of music and people.”

The lust for blood on the part of left-wing America has been called out after Saturday’s attempted assassination of President Donald Trump.

Cole Allen, 31, armed with multiple firearms and knives, made his way into the Washington Hilton where the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner was being held Saturday, and wounded a Secret Service agent before he was arrested. A manifesto written by Allen later revealed his intent to murder Trump and other top Trump administration officials.

Journalist Libby Emmons posted on X that the assasination attempt was the embodiment of some leftist babble that took place recently in an interview published by The New York Times.

“3 days before WHCA attack on Trump, NYT celebrated far-leftist Hasan Piker who called for ‘capitalist blood’ to be spilled,” Emmons wrote.

It’s becoming a pattern: A possible threat to President Donald Trump’s life. Calls from both sides to turn down the temperature. And then, a pivot.

Republicans on Sunday rushed to turn the shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner into a campaign cudgel, accusing Democrats of opening the door to political violence with “dangerous and inflammatory rhetoric” against the president. And they’re leveraging the attempted security breach to try and break the congressional stalemate over Department of Homeland Security funding.

Less than 24 hours after calling on Americans to “resolve our differences,” Trump said in an interview with CBS’ “60 Minutes” that “I do think that the hate speech of the Democrats … is very dangerous.” Republican National Committee Chair Joe Gruters cast Saturday’s incident as “the inevitable result of a radicalized left that has normalized political violence.”

“They can get along,” he said.

“But it’s like neighbours who have a rough little kid living in the neighbourhood who keeps throwing rocks at everybody’s window.

“And if the kid will quit throwing rocks, the neighbours can get along and start actually working together.”

East Village residents who overwhelmingly backed New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani are now trying to block one of his administration’s key moves, suing to stop a building in their neighborhood from being turned into a temporary homeless shelter.

The lawsuit, filed Monday in New York City Supreme Court, highlights growing pushback from within Mamdani’s own base as his policies begin to hit close to home.

The backlash quickly drew ridicule from conservatives, who pointed to the political whiplash. Sen. Ted Cruz summed it up in a brief post: “Oops.”

The left has tried to put Donald Trump in prison for the last decade. So far, they have not succeeded, but it’s not for a lack of trying. They’ve used every dirty trick in the book to try to eliminate their most hated political opponent. It seems like every day we find out new disturbing details about the left’s various plots to discredit and jail the president of the United States.

In Trump 2.0, they’ve become even more desperate, and they no longer limit themselves to hounding the president and his closest associates. Now, anyone who supports the president or carries out orders he issues as the lawful chief executive could find himself a target for left-wing vengeance and reprisal.

And that’s exactly what billionaire Tom Steyer, the current lead Democrat candidate for the governorship of California, the nation’s largest state, plans to do to ICE agents who dutifully carry out our nation’s immigration laws if he wins. Steyer presents his plan in no uncertain moral terms: ICE is evil because it carries out its duty, and its agents must be given no legal quarter in California.

The US Embassy said the killed US officials were “supporting Chihuahua state authorities’ efforts to combat cartel operations.”

Two Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) officers were killed in Mexico over the weekend while returning from an operation targeting Cartel-affiliated drug labs in the northern state of Chihuahua. They died in a vehicle crash along with two Mexican investigators, who were also involved in the operation, authorities said.

The circumstances surround the crash are under investigation, according to CNN. This comes as President Trump has repeatedly stated his intention to dismantle the Cartels, pressuring Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum to crack down on their drug labs. The US Embassy said that the killed US officials were “supporting Chihuahua state authorities’ efforts to combat cartel operations.”

President Sheinbaum claimed during a Tuesday press conference that her administration was “not aware of any direct work or coordination” between the state of Chihuahua and the US Embassy in Mexico. She added that Mexico does not permit joint operations with foreign governments and that work is limited to intelligence sharing.
