Senator Adam Schiff faces a new federal investigation after a whistleblower claims he leaked classified intelligence from the House Intelligence Committee to the press. Judge Jeanine Pirro, U.S. District Attorney for Washington, D.C., announced she will personally oversee the case, adding scrutiny to Schiff’s past public statements about Donald Trump.
President Trump has invoked the Home Rule Act to take federal control of the Washington, D.C., police department, citing violent crime. DEA Administrator Terry Cole will lead the Metropolitan Police, assisted by the D.C. National Guard (without arrest powers). Trump pledged to remove homeless encampments and restore safety. Federal control can last 30 days without congressional approval.
Trump nominated Heritage Foundation economist Dr. E.J. Antoni to lead the Bureau of Labor Statistics, replacing Biden appointee Erika McEntarfer, whom he accused of inflating jobs data to aid Kamala Harris’s 2024 campaign. Antoni has criticized the Biden-Harris record, saying job growth benefited foreign-born workers while native-born employment fell.
In redistricting battles, Texas Governor Greg Abbott threatened to eliminate up to 10 Democratic House districts if California moves to redraw maps in favor of Democrats. California, New York, and Illinois may adjust maps to offset GOP gains, while Florida, Missouri, and Indiana could follow Texas’s lead.
A New York federal judge denied the DOJ’s request to unseal grand jury transcripts from the Ghislaine Maxwell–Jeffrey Epstein investigation, calling the motion “disingenuous” and citing a lack of significant new information. The ruling rebuffs President Trump’s push for transparency in the case.
Internationally, Trump extended the U.S.-China tariff truce for 90 days, maintaining current rates (55% U.S. tariffs on most Chinese goods, 10% on U.S. goods) to allow further trade negotiations. Without the extension, tariffs could have soared to 145%.
In Ukraine, Vice President J.D. Vance said the U.S. is working to arrange a meeting between Trump, Russian President Vladimir Putin, and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to seek peace. Vance stressed ending U.S. funding for the war and urged greater European involvement.
Domestically, the Trump administration is weighing reclassifying cannabis from Schedule I to Schedule III, recognizing potential medical uses while noting mental health risks tied to high-potency strains. Trump said a decision could come within weeks.
These developments underscore the administration’s aggressive posture on law enforcement, economic policy, and foreign affairs, while also highlighting deep partisan divides over crime, redistricting, transparency, and drug reform.

WOW. Many thought we’d never see this day… Tulsi Gabbard, now head of the DNI, has just declassified 114 pages of documents tied to the Obama administration’s Russia investigation — now being called #Obamagate. In today’s LIVE show, Trish Regan reports that Tulsi is demanding criminal indictments.
Meanwhile, the Department of Homeland Security is firing back, holding a press conference to call out sanctuary cities like Los Angeles and Chicago for refusing to follow federal law.
And it’s not a good weekend for Rep. Adam Schiff. Documents just surfaced — shared by President Trump — showing Schiff listed his Maryland property as his primary residence while serving as a Congressman for California. That’s the same type of mortgage fraud Letitia James is being accused of.
Speaking of Letitia… the New York Attorney General is reportedly under DOJ investigation and could face serious legal trouble. Voters are turning on her fast — is her time in office coming to an end?
PLUS — the real reason why Stephen Colbert’s time at CBS came to an end.

Canelle was a six-month-old female chimpanzee when her mother was killed by poachers. Alone in the vast equatorial forest, she wouldn’t have survived without the pygmies who found her and then took her to a specialist refuge. That was where she encountered Patricia Leschaeve.
On the banks of the Sanaga River, Canelle’s long apprenticeship began. Over five years, Patricia gradually taught her to become autonomous and live as part of a society, as her mother would have. In the course of the time they shared together, a strong bond formed between Patricia and Cannelle. But the return to life in the wild as part of a troop of chimpanzees is inevitable, and the separation was always going to be delicate.
Over five years, the filmmakers captured Canelle’s incredible story. Following the entire rehabilitation process until her return to the wild, this documentary shows the poignant mutual attachment between a chimpanzee and its adoptive mother.
