- ‘Do Not Invite’: Venezuela Coup Plotters Shut Out Intelligence Chief Tulsi Gabbard
AP Photo/Rebecca Blackwell Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard was reportedly in the dark about the Trump administration’s plan to invade Venezuela and depose President Nicolas Maduro. Bloomberg reported on Thursday that the White House excluded the nation’s top intelligence from discussions about the planned ouster, which was carried out on Saturday. People familiar with the situation said that Gabbard had previously opposed U.S. intervention in the South American country. “The United States needs to stay out of Venezuela,” Gabbard, then a Democratic member of Congress, tweeted in 2019. “Let the Venezuelan people determine their future. We don’t want other countries to choose our leaders–so we have to stop trying to choose theirs.” Since that time, Gabbard became a Republican and endorsed President Donald Trump in 2024. “The move to cut Gabbard out of the meetings was so well-known that some White House aides joked that the acronym of her… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.47 mins ago - Josh Hawley Tries to Make Amends After Trump Calls For His Defeat: ‘I Love the President’
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) tried to make amends with President Donald Trump on Thursday after he voted to advance a bipartisan bill that would block the Trump administration from putting troops into Venezuela again without Congressional approval. Trump attacked Hawley and the four other Republicans who voted for the bill, saying they should never win another election. “Republicans should be ashamed of the Senators that just voted with Democrats in attempting to take away our Powers to fight and defend the United States of America. Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Rand Paul, Josh Hawley, and Todd Young should never be elected to office again,” Trump raged, adding: This Vote greatly hampers American Self Defense and National Security, impeding the President’s Authority as Commander in Chief. Hawley took to social media to explain his vote, writing, “With regard to Venezuela, my read of the Constitution is that if the President feels… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.1 hour ago - New Jersey Is Latest State to Ban Student Phones in Schools

President Donald Trump speaks at his Mar-a-Lago club, Saturday, Jan. 3, 2026, in Palm Beach, Fla. (AP Photo/Alex Brandon) President Donald Trump told The New York Times this week that he wasn’t constrained by international law and that his “own morality” is the only thing by which he abides. The comments first came to light in a story published Thursday. They were made during a phone interview the day before, which touched on Trump’s incursion into Venezuela and potential military action in other countries: In that interview, Trump explained how his fluid interpretation of international law essentially means only he can limit the power he wields. The New York Times report added: Asked in a wide-ranging interview with The New York Times if there were any limits on his global powers, Mr. Trump said: “Yeah, there is one thing. My own morality. My own mind. It’s the only thing that… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago - ‘There’s Something in The Air Right Now’: CNN’s Laura Coates Inhales Pepper Spray During Liv...
CNN’s Laura Coates reported live from the middle of a Minneapolis anti-ICE protest Thursday as she said agents shot pepper spray and tear gas into the crowd. Protests have raged all day in the aftermath of the ICE-involved shooting death of 37-year-old Renee Good, who had just dropped her child off at school, according to reports. The Trump administration has claimed that Good hit the officer with her van and he discharged his weapon in self-defense. “The tension here is palpable,” Coates reported. “People are upset. They are compelled to come down here. They do not trust that there will be an independent investigation.” “We’ve got them coming out right now — The ICE agents coming down, guns drawn right now,” Coates continued. “They’re spraying something into the air right now. People are concerned. I’m going in closer right now. Here we go.” “There’s something in the air… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago - Trump Admin Reportedly Looking at $100,000 Payments For Greenlanders to Join US
