The proposal to rename Palm Beach County County Airport to Trump International Airport could generate millions in revenue for Trump. It would be the first and only such airport naming deal and would allow Trump to indirectly profit from licensing fees.

Less than 24 hours after Denver Mayor Mike Johnston publicly pushed back on a U.S. Department of Justice demand to repeal the city's longstanding ban on assault weapons, the DOJ followed through with its threat to take the matter to court. On Tuesday, the DOJ filed a lawsuit in federal court alleging that Denver's longstanding ban on assault style weapons unconstitutionally bans certain constitutionally protected semi-automatic rifles and infringes on the "Second Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens to keep and bear arms in common use for lawful purposes," according to a statement from the agency.

Writing for The Hill on Tuesday, Racicot ripped into Congress for being asleep at the wheel as Trump and his Defense Department committed acts that amounted to "war crimes," including the launch of "without provocation, 55 military air strikes on vessels navigating the high seas, killing at least 174 civilians with four survivors and 11 missing and presumed dead." Those strikes, he wrote, have so far seen "no legitimate congressional oversight," and things only got worse when Trump opted to start a war with Iran. "Fast forward to the invasion of and use of armed force against Iran. The same pattern is replicated," Racicot wrote. "There was no cognizable provocation or imminent threat to the U.S. No genuine oversight provided by Congress. No justification for the use of lethal force in self-defense. All amid the potential prosecution of rank-and-file service members for carrying out the orders of a commander in chief who has never been a member of the armed forces himself." Read more

IDF General Avi Bluth proudly stated the IDF is killing Palestinians at levels "not seen since 1967," where he also defended looser rules of engagement allowing IDF troops to fire at unarmed Palestinians.

"In three years, we have killed 1,500 terrorists," he said, referring to Palestinians.

President Donald Trump's voters stunned a political analyst on Monday after they accused the president of staging another "false flag" attack. Nine voters who voted for Trump at least twice told The Bulwark that they believe Trump may have staged the shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner. Some noted that the circumstances of the shooting seem implausible, given the level of security that follows the president.
"The White House Counsel's Office is giving private briefings to the administration's political appointees on how to best prepare for congressional oversight as staff begin to brace for the likelihood of significant Democratic victories in the November midterm elections," the Washington Post reports.
OpEd: When Secretary Pete Hegseth announced in February that the Defense Department would sever ties with Harvard University, he framed the move as an act of ideological hygiene. Harvard, he suggested, is an incubator of "woke" narratives awash in liberal orthodoxy with faculty that "squelch anyone who challenges their leftist political leanings." Later, the Secretary formally added 13 more institutions to the department's list of "canceled" educational relationships, accusing each of "sacrificing freedom of expression for the suffocating confines of leftist ideology." The ironies and contradictions in the Secretary's logic to purge the military of elite education, respectfully, demand serious discussion.
