    Posing as a TV reporter clad with body armor, Gov. JB Pritzker on Thursday mocked the Trump administrative narrative that National Guard troops are needed to quell chaos in “war-torn Chicago” in a bit for ABC’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” “This is JB Pritzker, reporting from war-torn Chicago. As you can see, there’s utter mayhem and chaos on the ground. It’s quite disturbing,” he says on a downtown Chicago bridge. “The Milwaukee Brewers have come in to attack our Chicago Cubs. “We’ve seen people being forced to eat hot dogs with ketchup on them, and our deep dish pizza, well, has...

    Comey, who pleaded not guilty at his arraignment Wednesday, was indicted last month on charges of making a false statement and obstruction related to 2020 testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee -- but Justice Department officials have privately expressed that the case could quickly unravel under the scrutiny of a federal judge and defense lawyers. Daniel Richman -- a law professor who prosecutors allege Comey authorized to leak information to the press -- told investigators that the former FBI director instructed him not to engage with the media on at least two occasions and unequivocally said Comey never authorized him...

    WASHINGTON - The White House released a list of nearly 30 elected officials -- all of them Democrats -- who the Trump administration said incited violence against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents throughout the U.S. The White House named the following elected officials on the list, as well as quoted each of them: Gov. Tim Walz smeared ICE as the “modern-day Gestapo. Gov. Gavin Newsom likened ICE to “secret police,” calling them “authoritarian” and proclaiming a “right to push back.” Gov. JB Pritzker claimed the country is becoming “Nazi Germany” because ICE is “grabbing people off the street and...

    Behar: "It's funny, under Obama and Biden it was working. All of a sudden it's not working. Gee, what happened?!" ... Cohost Ana Navarro claimed that Trump had only gotten reelected in 2024 because he’d been out of office for four years, and in that time, people “had forgotten how bad Trump was. I think it meant a lot to people in 2020 when Joe Biden was first running because we were just surviving that first Trump term.”

    “This is misery,” Letterman, 78, said during a panel at the annual event, per Variety. “I feel bad about this.” “We see where this is all going, correct?” he continued. “It’s managed media. And it’s no good. It’s silly. It’s ridiculous. And you can’t go around firing somebody because you’re fearful or trying to suck up to an authoritarian criminal administration in the Oval Office. That’s just not how this works.” “In the world of somebody who is an authoritarian, maybe a dictatorship, sooner or later, everyone is going to be touched,” Letterman added.

    President Donald Trump is expected to fire the U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia after investigators were unable to find incriminating evidence of mortgage fraud against New York Attorney General Letitia James, according to sources. Federal prosecutors in Virginia had uncovered no clear evidence to prove that James had knowingly committed mortgage fraud when she purchased a home in the state in 2023, ABC News first reported earlier this week, but Trump officials pushed U.S. Attorney Erik Siebert to nevertheless bring criminal charges against her, according to sources.

    BREAKING: The FCC Chairman is threatening immediate action against Jimmy Kimmel, ABC, and Disney for deliberately misleading the public by claiming Charlie Kirk’s assassin was a MAGA Conservative. Chairman Brendan Carr calls Kimmel’s malicious lies are “truly sick” and says they should result in Kimmel's immediate suspension and may lead to ABC losing its broadcast license. Chairman Carr confirms the agency has a “strong case” to hold Kimmel, ABC, and Disney accountable for spreading dangerous, politically motivated misinformation. "This is a very, very serious issue right now for Disney. We can do this the easy way or the hard way....

    ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel insinuated Turning Point USA co-founder Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin was a member of the "MAGA gang" while mocking President Donald Trump’s response to his death during his show Monday night. The "Jimmy Kimmel Live" host brought up the matter during his monologue and claimed right-wing critics were hitting "new lows" trying to frame the suspect, 22-year-old Utah native Tyler Robinson, as someone who wasn’t "MAGA." "We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything...

    Left-wing late-night host Jimmy Kimmel has attacked President Donald Trump for mourning the assassination of Charlie Kirk like “how a four-year-old mourns a goldfish.” Kimmel showed his sneering disregard for the president’s empathy during his show on Monday night, alleging Republicans and Trump “are doing everything they can to score political points” from the tragedy. He further made clear his belief Trump and his supporters are somehow “desperately trying to characterize the kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them.”

    Staff at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention tell ABC News the agency has descended into turmoil as senior officials offer their resignations over the Trump administration's effort to oust the agency's new director. A dozen CDC staffers, speaking on the condition of anonymity, described the mood inside the agency to ABC News, including some who said Thursday that the last 24 hours have left them questioning how much longer they should remain in their roles amid fears that the agency is, in the words of one staffer, "changing from a trusted scientific organization to a personal dictatorship" run...

    As the Trump administration looks to increase the number of deportations of undocumented immigrants, a new battle has opened inside the nation's immigration courts. Immigration judges and lawyers are being targeted for following established procedures. ... The fear intensified in March when President Donald Trump issued an executive order that accused immigration lawyers of coaching their clients to lie in asylum petitions. The president then directed the U.S. Attorney General to identify misconduct "such as filing frivolous litigation or engaging in fraudulent practices" and sanction attorneys who "violate professional conduct rules." ... There's been an ongoing purge of immigration judges...

    ABC’s lead Sunday morning anchor is not letting facts get in the way of a political narrative, even after losing a $16 million lawsuit to President Trump and when bodies from a tragedy are still warm. As The Gateway Pundit reported, at least 51 innocent souls in Kerr County, Texas, were killed over the fourth of July weekend by flooding from the Guadalupe River. The victims included 14 children at Camp Mystic, an all-girls Christian summer camp. Many other children who were at Camp Mystic have gone missing and are still unaccounted for. Trump has signed a “Major Disaster Declaration”...

    ABC News’ senior national correspondent Terry Moran went off on a late-night screed against top White House adviser Stephen Miller along with President on social media — drawing scathing backlash from the Trump administration. Moran, who landed an interview with the president in April, blasted Miller, the White House deputy chief of staff for policy, as a man “richly endowed with the capacity for hatred.”z “The thing about Stephen Miller is not that he is the brains behind Trumpism. Yes, he is one of the people who conceptualizes the impulses of the Trumpist movement and translates them into policy. But...

    As we reported, Jim Comey posted a threatening message to President Trump that someone, probably him or his family, created with seashells in the sand. He said it was interesting, and he just happened upon it. Comey deleted after significant backlash, claiming he didn’t know what it meant. Comey, a former FBI director no less, didn’t take it down until Kash Patel, the new FBI director, said he was under investigation. President Donald Trump lashed out Friday against ex-FBI Director James Comey over the Instagram post. ABC fake news said “top Trump officials claimed was a threat.” Can you imagine...

The gift is expected to be announced next week, when Trump...

    President Trump humiliated ABC’s Terry Moran by revealing why he picked him for “the break of a lifetime” in getting to interview him on his 100th day in office. The commander in chief put the senior national correspondent in his place during a tense exchange in which Moran challenged him about suspected MS-13 tattoos on deported illegal immigrant Kilmar Abrego Garcia. “Hey, they’re giving you the big break of a lifetime, you know you’re doing the interview,” Trump said. “I picked you because frankly, I never heard of you.

    Election denier and MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell continues to refuse to pay more than $50,000 in sanctions he has been ordered to pay to voting software company Smartmatic over "frivolous" election claims. "I'm in ruins," a teary Lindell said through a Zoom screen in a motion hearing in the U.S. District Court in Washington on Wednesday, pleading to Judge Carl Nichols to allow him to wait until after the final judgement comes out to make any payment in the case, which he has already lost. Last month, Smartmatic filed a motion to hold Lindell in contempt, alleging the MyPillow CEO...

    Ana Navarro told her co-hosts Thursday on ABC’s “The View” that President Donald Trump “should be in a padded room.” Navarro said, “Look, you know, if they’re saying that this was all strategic, then he is a sadist because what kind of government leader puts his people through this kind of distress and sadness and anxiety for a week just for giggles? His supporters always say that he plays fourth-dimensional chess. I think he should be in a padded room playing with his own drool.” She continued, “The things he does are just simply lunacy, and we’re not out of...
