- Trump Warns Of ‘Massive Armada’ On Its Way To Iran: ‘We’re Watching Them Very Closely’
AP Photo/Evan Vucci President Donald Trump said U.S. naval forces were on their way to Iran, telling reporters on Thursday that he hoped the administration “won’t have to use” the “massive fleet” headed to the Middle East. Trump spoke to the press aboard Air Force One as he returned to Washington from the World Economic Forum in Davos. At the summit, Trump signaled he would accept Iranian rulers’ invitation to talk, after stepping back from his threats of a military response if demonstrators in recent widespread protests were killed. “Where do things stand with Iran?” a reporter asked the president. “The U.S. has got sizable military assets.” The president claimed that while U.S. ships were en route, their presence was meant as a precautionary measure. “We’re watching Iran. We’re watching Iran,” said Trump. “You know, we have a lot of ships going that direction just in case.” He continued: We have a big… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.44 mins ago - TikTok Strikes Deal To Split Off an American Version, Ending Long Legal Saga

AP Photo/Julia Demaree Nikhinson President Donald Trump demanded on Thursday that Rep. Ilhan Omar (R-MN) be investigated for “Political Crimes,” whatever those are. Trump and Omar have been waging a feud that recently hit a fever pitch as the president has sent 3,000 immigration agents to Minnesota, especially in Minneapolis, which Omar represents. The president has seized on a series of fraud scandals in Minnesota’s social services system, particularly those involving Somali Americans. On Thursday, Trump again targeted Omar, a Somali immigrant, saying she should be investigated because her net worth has risen dramatically since she arrived in Congress in 2019. “Congresswoman Ilhan Omar is worth over $30 Million Dollars,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “There is no way such wealth could have been accumulated, legally, while being paid the salary of a politician. She should be investigated for Financial and Political Crimes, and that investigation should start, NOW!” In… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.1 hour ago - CNN’s Elie Honig Says ‘Of Course’ Jack Smith Thought About the Election While Prosecuting Trum...
Elie Honig, CNN’s senior legal analyst, pulled no punches on Thursday during former Special Counsel Jack Smith’s testimony before the House — arguing that Smith’s timeline for prosecuting Donald Trump was clearly motivated by the 2024 presidential election. “We only have a moment here, but the timing—Jack Smith’s timing—and you’ve talked a lot about this, Ellie, and this was something he was being pressed on: how quickly he wanted to try the president,” said anchor Brianna Keilar, kicking off the exchange. “First of all, that moment where the member of Congress addressed and blamed the police officers was an outrage, ridiculous, and an embarrassment, and I think undermined the points they were trying to make. To your question, Brianna, the last congressman we saw brought up the fact that Jack Smith demanded a trial date four months out, five months out, in a case involving 13 million pages… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.1 hour ago - ‘Americans Should be Terrified’: Senate Dem Sounds the Alarm On ICE Breaking ‘Down Doors’ Wi...
Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) sounded the alarm during a CNN interview on Thursday about ICE entering the homes of Americans without warrants, following new reporting from the Associated Press on a leaked Homeland Security memo allowing them to do so. Anchor Sara Sidner began the interview, asking, “And we just got this new information overnight. The Associated Press was the first to report that ICE is changing its policy. And it is now allowing its agents to forcibly enter homes without a warrant, and I just want to be clear, based solely on a more narrow administrative warrant to arrest someone on a final order of removal. Do you think this sharp turn from ICE’s policy and from normal policing tactics is a violation of the Constitution’s Fourth Amendment?” “It is a blatant, craven violation of the Fourth Amendment, a bedrock protection for people in the privacy of… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago - Senior FBI Official Describes ‘Surreal’ Call Where Kash Patel Dictated Social Media Strategy Rig...
Francis Chung/POLITICO via AP Images In the immediate aftermath of the Charlie Kirk assassination in September, FBI Director Kash Patel prioritized social media strategy over the bureau’s response to the killing, according to a senior FBI official. On Thursday, The New York Times published accounts of Patel’s tenure from 45 people who either currently work at the FBI or left during President Donald Trump’s second term. “Beginning with Trump’s selection of Patel, our sources narrated the events that most troubled them over the last year,” the Times stated. “Many details of what we learned are reported here for the first time.” Kirk, the conservative activist and founder of TPUSA, was shot and killed while speaking at Utah Valley University on Sept. 10. In an unusual move for an FBI director, Patel traveled to the crime scene that day. Previously, it had been reported that Patel refused to get off the… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago
