The Justice Department, under leadership appointed by the Trump administration, has asked for information about potentially thousands of FBI employees across the country who were involved in work related to investigations stemming from the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol and a Hamas-related case filed last year in New York. According an email sent to the FBI workforce late Friday, and obtained by ABC News, the requested information is to be provided by Tuesday afternoon to the office of the acting Deputy Attorney General, Emil Bove, whose office will then conduct a review to determine if any "personnel...

A report from ABC7 in Chicago reported that a magistrate judge ordered the release of a Venezuelan man who was arrested in a targeted enforcement operation over the weekend. Over the weekend, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) officers, along with other federal agencies, carried out a targeted enforcement operation, Breitbart News reported. The actions were overseen by top officials of the Trump administration, including Border Czar Tom Homan. According to the report from ABC7, law enforcement officials placed Edward Martinez-Cermeno, 24, into custody on Sunday for illegally entering the United States near Eagle Pass, Texas...

A charitable analysis of ABC, NBC, and CBS’s Friday evening and Saturday morning broadcasts would find that the six shows combined to give the 52nd annual March for Life in Washington, D.C., a measly 48 seconds of coverage. Neither ABC’s Saturday edition of Good Morning America, NBC’s Today, nor CBS Saturday Morning acknowledged the rally’s existence, meaning all the coverage came on Friday evening. NBC Nightly News also skipped the rally altogether, giving NBC zero combined seconds. Still, zero seconds is somehow an improvement for NBC because last year, not only did they omit the March for Life, they actively...

Legal service providers help individuals navigate immigration court proceedings. The Department of Justice, under new leadership following the inauguration of Donald Trump, has told legal service providers who receive federal funding to stop providing legal orientation and other work intended to support immigrants at immigration courts. In a memo obtained by ABC News, the DOJ ordered all such legal providers on Wednesday to "stop work immediately" in those areas. "This email is to send you notification to stop work immediately pursuant to the Executive Order on the following task orders," the memo said. The programs listed in the memo include...

The ABC, CBS and NBC evening news networks completely ignored new damning data that bookended Bidenomics as arguably the dumbest set of economic policies the U.S. experienced in its history. So much for all the media kerfuffle about how President Donald Trump was inheriting a Biden economy in tip-top shape. The Wall Street Journal reported January 16 that “Mortgage rates rose above 7% for the first time since mid-2024, an early setback for a housing market that is coming off two consecutive years of poor sales.” The data on the 30-year fixed mortgage, which was released January 16 by Freddie...

ABC News Chicago broadcasted tips to illegal foreigners on how to evade ICE. ICE is looking for criminals and terrorists. They are aiding and abetting illegal criminal migrants. The host in the clip below said ICE is targeting schools and churches when they are targeting foreign criminals. After preying on people’s sympathies, ABC News shifted to Gov. Pritzker, complaining that ICE was looking for 2,000 illegal foreigners to begin with. He knows they are likely criminals.

Wednesday on ABC’s “The View” co-host Joy Behar told Washington, D.C. Episcopal Bishop Mariann Budde that she was “more fearlessness than anyone in Congress right now.” Tuesday at the National Prayer Service, Budde said, “I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender children in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives. And the people, the people who pick our crops and clean our office buildings who labor in poultry farms and meatpacking plants who wash the dishes after we eat in restaurants...

The new chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, Republican Brendan Carr, will reverse the 11th hour decision by the former Democrat chair to reject three complaints against major media outlets, sources tell Newsmax. With days left in her term under the Biden administration, Chair Jessica Rosenworcel, a Democrat, last week announced she was dismissing four pending petitions and complaints before the FCC that she believed sought "to curtail freedom of the press." Three of the petitions related to coverage of the presidential campaign while one was a complaint about Fox News Channel. Carr, appointed Monday by President Donald Trump, plans...

President Donald Trump offered a scathing rebuke of his predecessor's term while laying out the immediate actions he plans to take on the first day of his second term in office, saying in his inauguration remarks, "America's decline is over." Trump whiplashed between painting a dire picture of the country under the Biden administration while proclaiming himself as a "peacemaker and unifier" and that the "Golden Age" of the country is beginning. He also referenced his personal legal battles and historic political comeback to the White House during his nearly 30-minute remarks after taking the oath of office in the...

Friday on ABC’s “The View,” Joy Behar told her co-hosts that the 2024 presidential election was “not normal” and President-elect Donald Trump was not a normal person. Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin said, “So I have no problem with Michelle Obama not going. I think it’s critical that all former presidents and vice presidents attend. I think it signals to the world that despite a very tumultuous political season that America moves forward and we’re going to have a safe and secure transfer of power despite Donald Trump in 2020 and what he did after January 6th but as spouse she...

Climate change has played a major role in the unprecedented wildfires that are raging through Southern California. Five wildfires -- the Palisades, Eaton, Hurst, Woodley and Lidia fires -- were burning through Ventura and Los Angeles counties on Wednesday. At least five people have been killed and several others injured by the disaster, according to officials.

David Muir’s Firefighter Barbie outfit wasn’t the first or most obvious indication that the institution he represents is fake news There’s nothing surprising about the fact that ABC’s resident Captain Hammer wannabe uses clothespins to nip the waist of his perfectly clean firefighter jacket like a department store mannequin — or that he would take the time to do so while reporting on devastating fires in Los Angeles. What’s surprising is that anyone would expect any different from David Muir. If this is the first you’re hearing of clothespin-gate, just watch this: People do all kinds of things on television...

David Muir, who? It appears George Stephanopoulos has a new rival to look out for at ABC. Stephanopoulos’ political drama with President-elect Donald Trump has followed him into the new year and sources tell us his colleague — and “This Week with George Stephanopoulos” co-host — Jonathan Karl, “wants George gone,” so that he can sweep in and take over the Sunday morning news show. “He wants the show, and he sees [ABC’s Trump settlement] as an opportunity,” a source told us about Karl’s ambition to move into Stephanopoulos’ spot. While Stephanopoulos’ name is on the show, he shares hosting...

The only man to lead both the FBI and the CIA urged caution to senators who might vote to confirm former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard as director of national intelligence and Kash Patel to lead the FBI, according to a letter sent to senators this week. "I am deeply concerned about the potential nominations of Mr. Kash Patel to lead the FBI and the inclusion of Former Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard as DNI in intelligence roles," William Webster, who led the FBI during the Carter and Reagan administrations and the CIA after that, said in a letter to senators on Thursday. Webster...

"Dear Bob, Nice fake news network you have there. It would be a shame if anything were to happen to it. Love, Brendan." That isn't quite what incoming FCC chair Brendan Carr wrote to Disney CEO Bob Iger this week, but it was pretty dang close. Carr has served on the Federal Communications Commission since 2017 and is President-elect Donald Trump's choice to serve as chairman next year. And he's taking no gruff from Disney-owned ABC News, which just agreed to pay $15 million in damages (and another million in legal fees) for defaming Trump during a "This Week" segment...

Former Democratic National Committee chairman Howard Dean appeared on MSNBC's "All in" to predict that "Trump will attack free speech. America will be done for as we know it. His vicious assault on ABC's George Stephanopoulos for calling him a rapist showed the kind of complete disregard for freedom of speech one would expect from an enemy of our democracy." Host Ari Melber asked "wasn't Stephanopoulos' claim that Trump was a convicted rapist slander? I believe the jury in the case specifically rejected the rape claim. Wasn't misstating this fact a deliberate lie? Should journalists be permitted to broadcast lies...

On Monday, former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich, who remains a loyal and respected ally within President Donald Trump’s orbit – posted a statement on X urging the President-elect to sue Gov. JB Pritzker for defamation after the Democratic governor repeatedly referred to Trump as an “adjudicated rapist.” Last Friday, ABC News agreed to a multi-million dollar settlement and agreed to contribute $15 million to President Trump’s presidential foundation and museum to settle a defamation lawsuit filed by Trump and his legal team against the network. Seizing on the opportunity – and continuing a more than 5-year feud with Pritzker, Blagojevich...

Stephanopoulos was repeatedly warned by his producer not to use the word “rape” in that interview, but then Stephanopulous used the word “rape” TEN times in that interview. Stephanopoulos was so determined to destroy Trump out of pure hatred no matter the consequences. Despite the fact that Trump had never even met E Jeane Carroll in his life and the jury clearly found Trump NOT GUILTY of rape only for the “judge” to declare he must be guilty of rape somehow. Lets not forget than Carroll couldn't even correctly give the year it happened and the dress she claimed she...

As President-elect Donald Trump's comments tanking House Speaker Mike Johnson's short-term government funding bill sent House Republicans into a tailspin Wednesday night, Senate Republicans were left to try to make sense of the remaining pieces. Congress must act to fund the government by midnight on Friday or risk a shutdown. With the House back at the drawing board, the clock is ticking. The nature of government funding bills means that the Senate is usually in a wait-and-see posture until the House acts. That's particularly true this time around, where Johnson has to wrangle his slim House majority into passing legislation...
