The president's casual cruelty to his cabinet reveals echoes of 1930s Germany, says The Daily Beast's Chief National Correspondent David Gardner.

Trump is not an ideologue. Hitler wrote Mein Kampf. Trump wrote The Art of the Deal (or his ghostwriter did). But he is an emboldened president.

Through an astonishing combination of guile, instinct, foresight, and plain luck, Trump finds himself in a position of unchallenged power in the White House.


President Donald Trump on Saturday said he is considering revoking the citizenship of one of his longtime foes -- actor and comedian Rosie O'Donnell -- something he has no clear legal pathway to do. read more

The official White House account on X released an image of Donald Trump as Superman. Now, you might think that is funny, or stupid, or witty, or maybe you have so much Trump fatigue as this point that you simply don't care. But I think it's much more than that.


One person has died from "injuries they sustained as a result of yesterday's immigration enforcement action" in California, United Farm Workers said on Friday.

Federal agents clashed with protesters during an immigration raid at a farm in Ventura, one of at least two large-scale raids in Southern California on Thursday.

"Children Left Alone After Mothers Arrested in Immigration Raids

"I Just Hope I Get My Mom Back," Says 15-Year-Old Juan Martinez, Who Is Now Caring for His Brothers, Ages 8 and 9"

Thursday morning, 15-year-old Juan Martinez received a frantic call from his mother. She told him Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents were right outside the Glass House Farms complex where she worked and would enter at any moment. "She was rushed," said Martinez. "She was panicking."

Martinez didn't know what to do. "It was really, really stressful," he said. "I couldn't drive over there. I couldn't do anything. I was helpless."

The next communication from Martinez's mother came at 11:36 a.m., close to the end of her regular 3 a.m. to 12 p.m. shift. In a hushed voice text she said she was in custody in a van and being taken to Los Angeles. She told him to take care of his brothers. "That made me cry," Martinez said.

Martinez's mother was among more than two dozen Glass House Farms employees arrested during Thursday's ICE raid on the cannabis company's properties in Carpinteria and Camarillo. An undocumented migrant from Guerrero, Mexico, she had been living and working in Southern California for 16 years and has no criminal record, Martinez said.

Martinez has not heard from her since. Meanwhile, he is doing his best to look after his two siblings, ages 8 and 9.

"I'm actually really lost right now," he said. "I don't know what to tell them because I don't want them to freak out. Because they're little, they're little kids."
