The conservative network’s legal analyst Jonathan Turley surprisingly pushed back on Trump border czar Tom Homan’s suggestion that Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez could face prosecution for hosting a webinar on immigrants’ legal rights, calling his threat “baseless” and “an assault on free speech rights.”

Turley, a longtime defender of Donald Trump whom the president has regularly cited as a favorite legal expert, offered up his somewhat shocking defense of Ocasio-Cortez as Homan has spent days raging about her efforts to make undocumented migrants aware of their rights amid the Trump administration’s mass deportation raids.

The progressive lawmaker’s webinar, part of her “Know Your Rights” campaign, provides “important information” to immigrants about their legal rights during interactions with ICE officers.

This includes invoking the Fifth Amendment, refusing to share personal information and asking for an attorney if detained.

The Trump administration has fired several hundred Federal Aviation Administration employees as Americans reel from a series of plane crashes in recent weeks.

Probationary employees – that is, those who were hired less than a year ago – were fired via email on Friday, according to a statement from David Spero, president of the Professional Aviation Safety Specialists union.

The firings came just days before a Delta Airlines flight crashed at the Toronto Pearson International Airport, flipping over onto its roof as it attempted to land.

At least 18 people were taken to the hospital after the Monday afternoon crash, including two adults and one child with critical injuries.

Astonishingly, everyone on board survived.

There will be more of Trump and Musk on Sean Hannity’s show again tonight.

A 20-year-old college student who voted for the president told Fox News co-host Jessica Tarlov he was frustrated with the level of chaos in the new administration just two weeks into the president’s term.

Tarlov, a liberal co-host of The Five, revealed on her podcast Raging Moderates last week that the “college student from the Midwest” said the new Trump administration was not what he was anticipating.

The head of the New York University (NYU) College Republicans has resigned after calling Donald Trump’s youngest son an “oddity on campus.”

Kaya Walker described NYU freshman Barron Trump to Vanity Fair last week as “sort of like an oddity on campus,” adding “he goes to class, he goes home.”

She also told the magazine that one of her professors joked that the first son “doesn’t really belong here,” referring to the school’s historically liberal politics.

Elon Musk’s non-official advisory body has said that it found $4.7 trillion in untraceable Treasury payments that were missing a critical tracking code.

The Hollywood actor has riled Donald Trump supporters on Sunday with the return of his MAGA-touting hillbilly character on Saturday Night Live (SNL).

The sketch originally aired in a 2016 episode.

For the part, Hanks wore a red “Make America Great Again” hat in addition to a flannel shirt and T-shirt with a bald eagle on it.

Trump’s pro-crypto stance includes pledges to implement crypto-friendly policies, aiming to attract investment and innovation in the sector.

However, his embrace extends beyond policy, with the Trump name now attached to a crypto token and other crypto-themed products.

Here’s an overview of e-coin exploits.
