Viewers may have to do a little hunting or channel-surfing if they want to watch tonight’s controversial address to the nation from President Donald Trump. ABC and NBC will opt to stream Trump’s speech at 9 pm EST on their streaming platforms, rather than carry it live on their networks. ABC says that it will broadcast a special report when the speech concludes. “ABC News will run President Trump’s speech on ABC News Live and ABC News Radio with comprehensive, anchored coverage,” an ABC News spokesperson says. “We will also cover the speech in our regular network newscasts and, as...

Former CNN host and independent journalist Don Lemon claimed in a new interview that he’s “serious” about possibly running for president in the 2028 election — and insisted he’d be a “really good” commander-in-chief. Lemon made the eyebrow-raising declaration on “Can’t Be Censored” podcast hosted by Karman Wong and Travis Dhanraj, insisting that everyone wants to know if he has White House aspirations. “Do you have political ambition? Is that true?” Dhanraj asked on Wednesday’s show. “No, but people keep asking me if I’m running for president,” Lemon answered. “And I don’t know. I might. I’m serious. I don’t know....

A discharged Marine running for a seat in the House of Representatives in Florida has come under fire for a deranged social media video in which he called President Trump “the anti-Christ” who “must be killed.” William Upham wore his uniform in the disturbing, nearly seven-minute attack video despite having been medically discharged from the US Marine Corps last May. “I’ve reached a turning point in my campaign. Why? I’ve come to the realization that our country is broken. We are led by a president who’s the enemy of God, and President Trump will never bring us together like God...

Former Democratic state Rep. Bakari Sellers of South Carolina said Friday that “a more aggressive approach” was needed to “remove” President Donald Trump and his supporters. Trump came under fire over a deleted video restating his claims about the 2020 election that included two seconds of a derogatory meme aimed at former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama. Sellers told former CNN host Don Lemon during an episode of “The Don Lemon Show” that a president willing to take “corrective action” against the “MAGA movement” would be needed. “Like this is a little bit controversial with my...

NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani just signed a defiant executive order to ban ICE from city property. Invoking the Quran and calling federal enforcement an "abuse of power," Mamdani is drawing a line in the sand against the Trump administration.

PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — A federal judge has ordered a temporary restraining order restricting the ability of federal agents at the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement office in Portland from using tear gas and other chemical munitions at people unless there is an imminent threat of physical harm, according to court documents filed on Tuesday afternoon.“In a well-functioning constitutional democratic republic, free speech, courageous newsgathering, and nonviolent protest are all permitted, respected, and even celebrated. In an authoritarian regime, that is not the case. Our nation is now at a crossroads,” U.S. District Judge Michael H. Simon wrote.Meanwhile, U.S. Sen....

JUST IN: Democrat Rep. Jerry Nadler appears to suggest American citizens would be justified in shooting masked ICE agents. "What is really the major problem in this country today is the fascism in our streets." "The attacks on American citizens by masked hoodlums. If you were attacked by a masked person, you might think you were being kidnapped. You'd be justified in shooting the person to protect yourself."

A Long Beach mayoral candidate is drawing intense scrutiny after issuing what critics describe as a reckless and potentially dangerous call for gang involvement in opposing federal immigration enforcement. Rogelio Martinez, who is running for mayor of Long Beach, California, posted a statement urging local gang leaders to mobilize against Immigration and Customs Enforcement as part of his push to make the city “ICE free.” In the message, Martinez explicitly called on gangs to organize and appear in person at City Hall, language that opponents say amounts to an invitation for confrontation with federal authorities. “I am calling every gang...

Philadelphia’s top prosecutor, a George Soros-backed district attorney, is facing scrutiny and backlash after vowing to "hunt" down federal immigration agents as city leaders move to curb ICE operations. Speaking during a morning event outside City Hall tied to newly unveiled "ICE OUT" legislation, District Attorney Larry Krasner sharply criticized Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers. "This is a small bunch of wannabe Nazis. That’s what they are," Krasner said. "In a country of 350 million, we outnumber them. If we have to hunt you down the way they hunted down Nazis for decades, we will find your identities. We will...

As President Trump’s promised mass deportations gain steam, radicals are spiraling into outright calls for violence against those enforcing America’s borders. In a shocking video clip, anti-Trump operative Rick Wilson demanded the execution of Stephen Miller, the architect behind the administration’s tough immigration policies. Wilson’s meltdown comes amid backlash over recent ICE actions, including two fatal encounters that have fueled leftist outrage. But while open-borders advocates cry foul, the reality exposes their organized efforts to sabotage law enforcement and shield illegal aliens from accountability. In a recent video, Wilson rails against Miller for labeling the agitator who was killed in...

“Barack Obama has made a rare political statement to condemn Donald Trump's administration over the fatal shootings of two US citizens by immigration officers in Minnesota. 'The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy,' the former president wrote on X in the wake of the most recent horror on Sunday. 'It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.'”

Former President Bill Clinton accused the Trump administration of lying to the American people about the shootings that have taken place in Minneapolis at the hands of federal immigration officers. In a statement Sunday, the Democratic former president fiercely condemned the “horrible scenes” in Minneapolis “that I never thought would take place in America.”

Federal agents shot and killed a 37-year-old man in Minneapolis on Saturday morning, less than three weeks after an ICE agent fatally shot Renee Good and amid an ongoing surge in immigration enforcement action across the city. U.S. District Court Judge Eric Tostrud granted a temporary restraining order against the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Saturday, barring the department from altering or destroying evidence connected to Pretti's killing. Alex Jeffrey Pretti, an ICU nurse who worked at the Minneapolis VA hospital, was identified as the man killed by a Border Patrol agent. The Department of Homeland Security said the agent...

Mayor Mamdani on Saturday accused ICE of terrorizing cities nationwide after federal agents shot and killed an armed 37-year-old anti-ICE protestor in Minneapolis. “As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today,” Mamdani said on X in his latest attack on the agency. “ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.”

On Friday’s episode of ABC’s The View, fill-in moderator Joy Behar admitted that she needed therapy to deal with her Trump Derangement Syndrome. And during the Tuesday episode of The View’s Behind the Table podcast, Behar proved just how severe her TDS actually was. According to her, ICE was just like the Nazi Gestapo rounding people up for extermination. She also claimed that America was “at war” with NATO and President Trump wanted to launch a war against Minnesota. The first step in trying to fix one’s self was to admit you had a problem. Behar admitted that she was...

Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes suggested in a recent interview with local Arizona 12 News that people would be justified in shooting masked ICE agents in Arizona, even presenting a legal argument for doing so.

Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes wildly suggested that residents can open fire on masked ICE agents if they feel their life is in danger under the state’s self-defense laws. The Democrat, in a sit-down with 12 News anchor Brahm Resnik, warned that Arizona’s “Stand Your Ground” law, which allows citizens to use deadly force if they believe they’re in imminent danger, could become a “recipe for disaster” if protesters clash with immigration officers. “It’s kind of a recipe for disaster because you have these masked federal officers with very little identification, sometimes no identification, wearing plain clothes and masks,” Mayes...

Summary UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer says Donald Trump's remarks about British troops in Afghanistan are "insulting and frankly appalling" "If I had misspoken in that way - or said those words - I would certainly apologise," he says. The US president's comments have sparked outrage among UK veterans and politicians. The UK was among several allies to join the US in Afghanistan from 2001, after it invoked Nato's collective security clause following the 9/11 terror attacks - 457 British service personnel were killed in the conflict Corporal Andy Reid, who served in Afghanistan, tells the BBC Trump's claim is...
