Today’s Big Story…

Ed Martin, the new DOJ pardon attorney and head of its Weaponization Working Group, revealed he’s been investigating controversial “autopen” pardons from Biden’s final days since his time as interim U.S. attorney for D.C. and has concluded the identity of three culprits.

He said the probe has been ongoing for weeks, involves members of the Biden family, some individuals have retained lawyers, and a whistleblower has come forward with serious claims. Ed Martin told journalist Mark Halperin that the high-level Democratic whistleblower recently claimed three key individuals profited by controlling access to Biden’s presidential autopen. When asked for names, Martin cautiously described them as key White House "gatekeepers."

And then he named the gatekeepers: Ron Klain, Biden's former White House chief of staff; former senior Biden adviser Anita Dunn; and former President Barack Obama's former personal attorney, Robert Bauer.

Another Big Story…

President Trump responded on Truth Social after two Israeli embassy staffers were fatally shot near the Capital Jewish Museum in D.C. this week.

"These horrible D.C. killings, based obviously on antisemitism, must end, NOW!" Trump wrote on Truth Social. "Hatred and Radicalism have no place in the USA. Condolences to the families of the victims. So sad that such things as this can happen! God Bless You ALL!"

Israel’s Foreign Ministry named the victims as Yaron Lischinsky, 30, and Sarah Lynn Milgrim, 26. Ambassador Yechiel Leiter said Lischinsky had just bought an engagement ring and planned to propose to Milgrim in Jerusalem next week.

A pro-Palestinian suspect, Elias Rodriguez, is in custody. The 31-year-old Chicago man is believed to have acted alone, though it’s been confirmed he is linked to the far-left, pro-Palestine Party for Socialism and Liberation. While in custody, Rodriguez could be heard chanting “Free Palestine!” DHS and the FBI are actively investigating and working to gather more details in the coming days.

The Administration…

• Interim U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro announced murder and felony firearms charges against Elias Rodriguez over the killing of the two Israeli embassy workers.

• DHS is ending Harvard University’s student visa program, citing “pro-terrorist conduct” at campus protests and the school’s refusal to provide behavioral records of visa holders.

• A Cygnal survey found that 45.6% of likely 2026 voters support the deportation of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, viewing him as a criminal and MS-13 member, while only 38.8% believe he’s a “Maryland man” who should be allowed to return to the U.S.

• The Pentagon is deploying 1,115 more active-duty troops to the U.S.-Mexico border, raising the total number of service members stationed there to nearly 10,000.

• The Supreme Court’s conservative majority granted a temporary win to President Trump, allowing his removal of two independent agency heads without cause. In a 6-3 decision, the Court paused a lower ruling that said firing Cathy Harris (Merit Systems Protection Board) and Gwynne Wilcox (National Labor Relations Board) was likely illegal.

• HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. released a report from the Trump-established Make America Healthy Again Commission, identifying four key causes behind the chronic disease crisis affecting about 40% of U.S. children. The report targets rising rates of obesity, autism, cancer, mental health issues, and allergies.

• Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins announced at a MAHA event that the Trump administration is making history by approving waivers to remove junk food from food stamp programs. She signed the first in Nebraska with Gov. Jim Pillen and has approved waivers for Indiana and Iowa, with more on the way.

• Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney praised President Trump’s “Golden Dome” missile shield announcement but stopped short of requesting coverage for Canada or offering funding support.

• The $500 billion Stargate Project, a major AI initiative backed by OpenAI, SoftBank, Oracle, and MGX, has launched its first international phase in the UAE. Announced by President Trump, the project aims to build a global network of advanced AI data centers. Stargate UAE will be built in Abu Dhabi and is set to begin operations in 2026.

• “Dilbert” creator Scott Adams revealed that President Trump called him after he announced his terminal cancer diagnosis. On his show, Adams said he initially ignored the unfamiliar Florida number, only to later see the voicemail transcription start with, “This is your favorite president,” realizing he had accidentally sent Trump to voicemail.

Vice President…

JD Vance criticized dating apps during a New York Times podcast, calling them more harmful than widely recognized. He raised broader concerns about the social impact of AI and tech, particularly on young people's dating habits.

"I think part of it is technology has just for some reason made it harder for young men and young women to communicate with each other in the same way," said Vance. "Our young men and women just aren’t dating, and if they’re not dating, they’re not getting married, they’re not starting families."

Congress…

The Resistance…

1. The far-left, pro-Palestine Party for Socialism and Liberation—known for organizing BLM and anti-Israel protests—is distancing itself from gunman Elias Rodriguez after he confessed to killing two Israeli embassy workers.

2. Billionaire Alex Soros is facing backlash for condemning the killing of two Israeli embassy staffers while funding anti-Israel groups through his Open Society Foundation.

3. A federal judge blocked the Trump administration from firing thousands of Education Department workers, calling it a covert attempt to dismantle the agency without Congress. Judge Myong Joun, who was born in South Korea, claims the move disrupts services for students and families.

4. A federal judge blocked Trump’s attempt to fire two Democratic members of the Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board. Trump had dismissed all three Democrats on the five-member board, prompting a lawsuit. Judge Reggie Walton ruled that such firings would undermine the board’s function.

5. Federal prosecutors in Texas secured convictions for 60 illegal aliens who pleaded guilty to newly applied charges. The move follows a recent setback in prosecuting trespassers at a new National Defense Area in New Mexico.

6. Colorado Democrats have passed Senate Bill 276, which limits cooperation with ICE and eases restrictions for illegal aliens. The bill blocks state and local agencies from sharing immigration info, restricts federal access to schools and hospitals, and expands access to in-state tuition and driver’s licenses.

7. Disney CEO Bob Iger and ABC News President Almin Karamehmedovic reportedly asked the co-hosts of The View to tone down their political rhetoric. The suggestion wasn’t taken seriously, and the hosts have continued their criticisms of President Trump.

8. MSNBC host Katy Tur questioned why Elon Musk, the world’s richest man and most famous South African, attended an Oval Office meeting with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa and President Trump. Tur suggested Trump ambushed Ramaphosa and seemed baffled by Musk’s presence.

9. The FTC is investigating Media Matters over alleged coordination with other watchdog groups to organize advertiser boycotts of X, as claimed by Elon Musk. A civil investigative demand shows the agency is seeking all related documents tied to Musk’s 2023 lawsuit, which accuses Media Matters of trying to harm X’s ad relationships.

10. The Biden administration’s Department of Education used the little-known Schedule A hiring process to bypass standard merit-based hiring and bring in nearly 200 attorneys while advancing controversial, radical policies.

11. A new Senate report from Sen. Ron Johnson alleges U.S. health officials knew about myocarditis risks from COVID-19 vaccines but downplayed them and delayed informing the public. Johnson, who chairs the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, subpoenaed HHS for related records.
