Police Apprehend Suspects Linked To DOGE Staffer Beating

2

A former staffer from President Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) — affectionately known by insiders as “Big Balls” — was the target of a violent attempted carjacking early Sunday morning in the heart of the nation’s capital.

Edward Coristine, a 19-year-old software engineer and one of the standout young voices behind Trump’s government-cutting initiative, was ambushed around 3 a.m. in the Logan Circle neighborhood — a once-proud district now plagued by rising crime and emboldened youth gangs.

According to police, a pack of teens approached Coristine and his girlfriend near their vehicle. The thugs made threats about stealing the car before Coristine — in true America First fashion — pushed his girlfriend to safety and prepared to defend himself.

The mob attacked him until law enforcement officers, thankfully patrolling nearby, intervened. The suspects scattered, but two 15-year-old males were later apprehended and charged with unarmed carjacking.

This disturbing incident is yet another example of what happens when Democrat-run cities allow lawlessness to fester

Trump on Tuesday called for the District of Columbia to change its laws to allow for teenagers 14 and older to be prosecuted as adults and face lengthy prison sentences.

He shared on Truth Social a graphic image of the bloodied former DOGE employee, but did not name Coristine, and included a lengthy message attacking violent crime in Washington. Trump blamed the city’s crime on local “youths,” who he said were not fearful of consequences.

“They are not afraid of Law Enforcement because they know nothing ever happens to them, but it’s going to happen now!” the president wrote. “The Law in D.C. must be changed to prosecute these ‘minors’ as adults, and lock them up for a long time, starting at age 14. The most recent victim was beaten mercilessly by local thugs.”

“Washington, D.C., must be safe, clean, and beautiful for all Americans and, importantly, for the World to see,” Trump added. “If D.C. doesn’t get its act together, and quickly, we will have no choice but to take Federal control of the City, and run this City how it should be run, and put criminals on notice that they’re not going to get away with it anymore.”

Trump Reroutes Motorcade Due To ‘Suspicious Object’ In Florida

    On Sunday, President Trump’s motorcade was rerouted after a “suspicious object” was found at Palm Beach International Airport (PBI).

    The Hill reported that the U.S. Secret Service (USSS) discovered the object during advance sweeps at the president’s usual airport in Florida, prompting the motorcade to take a different route than usual to get to the airport, taking a circular route around town.

    “During advance sweeps of PBI Airport, a suspicious object was discovered by USSS. A further investigation was warranted and the presidential motorcade route was adjusted accordingly,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement.

    Police officers on motorcycles were traveling alongside the president’s motorcade. Air Force One parked on the opposite side of the airport from where it usually is located. The lights outside the plane were off when the motorcade arrived.

    Senior Diplomat Fired Over Trump Remarks

      New Zealand’s most senior diplomat to the U.K. was fired after seeming to question President Donald Trump’s understanding of history and his handling of Russia. 

      Phil Goff, who was serving as New Zealand’s high commissioner to the U.K., apparently tried to draw a contrast between Winston Churchill’s handling of Nazi Germany and Trump’s approach to Russia. 

      The New Zealand official said he was re-reading a famous Churchill speech from 1938 in which the British leader blasts then-Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain’s decision to sign the Munich Agreement with Adolf Hitler. 

      “President Trump has restored the bust of Churchill to the Oval Office. But do you think he really understands history?,” Goff asked Finnish Foreign Minister Elina Valtonen, referencing the bust seen during President Trump’s heated exchange with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

      Valtonen seemed uncomfortable with the question, saying she would “limit” herself in her response. Rather than saying anything about Trump, the Finnish official said many of Churchill’s remarks were “timeless.”

      When speaking with media, New Zealand Foreign Minister Winston Peters, who fired Goff, called the diplomat’s question “deeply disappointing.” He also said that it made “his position as high commissioner to London untenable.”

      Peters called Goff’s firing “one of the most difficult” things he has had to do in his career. He also said that had the former high commissioner made the statement about any other nation, he would have been “forced to act,” implying that the firing was not because Goff specifically insulted Trump. 

      “When you’re in that position, you represent the views of the government and the policies of the day – you’re not able to free-think, you are the face of New Zealand,” Peters told the press on Thursday.

      Notorious Criminal Speaks Out Ahead Of Trump Hush Money Trial

        1

        On Tuesday, MSNBC’s Ari Melber interviewed incarcerated convicted felon Michael Avenatti to get his thoughts on former President Donald Trump’s fast-approaching New York criminal hush money trial.

        Avenatti, a disbarred attorney, is currently serving 19 years for extortion, fraud, obstruction, and identity theft. Some of those charges stem from his theft of proceeds from a book by his former client, Stormy Daniels. 

        The former president faces 34 charges linked to hush money payments made by his ex-fixer to porn actress Stormy Daniels to cover up an alleged affair ahead of the 2016 election. He has pleaded not guilty.

        Trump is scheduled to head to trial in his New York criminal case on April 15.

        Mediaite has more:

        “Michael, have you been in touch with D.A. Bragg’s office?” Melber asked. “And what specifically in evidence or logic do you think is wrong with this case?”

        “I’m going to decline to answer as to whether I’ve been in touch with either the defense or the D.A.s office,” Avenatti replied. “But let me say this in response to the second part of your question. You know, I think the case has a lot of problems. Now that– I don’t mean to suggest that means that Trump will not be convicted because I think he will be convicted because number one, he’s a criminal defendant in our society. I don’t believe criminal defendants generally get a fair shake.”

        Avenatti then echoed attorneys for Trump, who have unsuccessfully attempted to secure a change of venue. He said:

        I don’t think that he can get a fair trial in New York. And to the people who claim that in fact, he can get a fair trial in New York with a New York jury, I would ask them, if they were to go to sleep tonight and wake up tomorrow and find out that the case had been moved to Mississippi or Alabama, would they still think the trial was going to be fair?

        And I think if they were being honest, they would answer no. So, I don’t think he can get a fair trial in New York.

        On Monday, a judge in New York denied a request for a delay in his hush money trial. Trump’s attorneys argued for the trial to be relocated from Manhattan and postponed as they pursue the matter. 

        Trump’s attorneys argued for the trial to be relocated from Manhattan and postponed as they pursue the matter. His attorneys argued that Manhattan, a well-known liberal bastion, was not an appropriate location for the Republican president’s case. They requested a change of venue to Staten Island, the only borough in New York City that Trump won in both 2016 and 2020.

        Trump Teases ‘Huge Announcement’ Ahead Of Middle East Visit

          Something big is coming…

          On Tuesday, President Trump hinted that he would soon make a “very big” announcement.

          Trump’s teasing comes days before his planned visit to Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Qatar. 

          “We’re going to have a very, very big announcement to make, like as big as it gets,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office, where he is meeting with Canada’s new Prime Minister Mark Carney. “And I won’t tell you on what … and it’s very positive.”

          “It is really, really positive. And that announcement will be made either Thursday or Friday or Monday before we leave,” Trump added. “But it’ll be one of the most important announcements that have been made in many years about a certain subject, very important subject. So you’ll all be here.” 

          After that, the president asked Carney if he’d like to say a few words. 

          “I’m on the edge of my seat,” Carney said, drawing laughter from the press before thanking Trump for his “hospitality” and “leadership.” 

          Trump announced that the Houthis in Yemen “don’t want to fight” any longer and agreed to stop its attacks on shipping lanes in the beginning of the meeting. In turn, the president said, the U.S. would stop its bombardment of the Iran-backed terror group. The U.S. has been launching daily airstrikes on Yemen since March 15 to defend the freedom of navigation.

          The Houthis claimed responsibility for a missile that struck near the main terminal of Israel’s international airport outside Tel Aviv over the weekend. 

          In the Oval Office, Trump did not say whether the forthcoming announcement was related to the Israel-Hamas war. 

          The president went on to discuss trade relations with Canada, the impact of the 145% tariff on China, prompting major automobile and tech companies to invest in onshoring in the U.S., as well as the prospect of the U.S. one day obtaining control of Canada. 

          The president then circled back to clarify that the announcement would not necessarily be related to that subject.

          “We’re going to have a great announcement. And I’m not necessarily saying it’s on trade,” Trump said. “We’re going to have a great announcement over the next few days. Announcement that will be, so, so incredible, so positive. And I’m not saying… I don’t want you to think it’s necessarily on trade.”

          Democrat Senators Back Trump’s Penny Plan

            4

            Multiple Democrat Senators have openly supported President Trump’s proposal to stop producing new pennies.

            Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-Nev.) came out in support of Trump’s latest proposal on Tuesday, calling it a “common sense move.” 

            Over the weekend, Trump announced that he “instructed my Secretary of the US Treasury to stop producing new pennies.”

            “For far too long, the United States has minted pennies which literally cost us more than 2 cents,” the president wrote on Truth Social. 

            “Let’s rip the waste out of our great nation’s budget, even if it’s a penny at a time.”

            Rosen took to X on Tuesday, writing, “I’m not afraid to embrace a good idea when it comes from the other side of the aisle, and I agree with President Trump on this.”

            “Eliminating the penny is a common sense move that’ll save taxpayer dollars,” she said. 

            She isn’t the only Democrat who has come out in support of Trump’s idea. 

            “As well as saving taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars, there are major environmental benefits to eliminating the penny. This is a great move,” Gov. Jared Polis (D-Colo.) said of the president’s plan. 

            Kimmel Targets Trump During Critics Choice Awards Acceptance Speech

            0

            Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel used his acceptance speech at Sunday’s Critics Choice Awards to take another swipe at President Donald Trump after his ABC program won Best Talk Show, continuing a yearslong feud that has made Trump a frequent target of Kimmel’s monologues.

            “A FIFA Peace Prize would have been better, but this is nice, too,” Kimmel joked from the stage, referencing FIFA President Gianni Infantino’s decision to award Trump the first-ever FIFA Peace Prize in early December. “Most of all, I want to thank our president, Donald Jennifer Trump, without whom we would be going home empty-handed tonight.”

            Kimmel went on to mock Trump directly, adding, “Thank you, Mr. President, for all the many ridiculous things you do each and every day. It’s been a banner couple of weeks, and we can’t wait to get back on the air tomorrow night to talk about them.”

            Trump and Kimmel have clashed publicly for nearly a decade, with the comedian routinely criticizing Trump’s policies, personality, and supporters on his show. Trump, in turn, has repeatedly dismissed Kimmel as a partisan entertainer and “ratings-challenged” host who uses political outrage to stay relevant.

            Kimmel’s remarks came after a turbulent year for his show. In September 2025, ABC briefly suspended Kimmel following controversial comments he made about conservative activist Charlie Kirk. The suspension sparked backlash from free-speech advocates on the right, who argued the network selectively enforces standards when conservatives are involved. Kimmel returned to the air just days later.

            During his acceptance speech, Kimmel thanked his wife, his producers, and members of the entertainment industry who supported him during the suspension.

            “Thanks to all the writers and actors and producers and union members, many of you who are in this room, who supported us, who really stepped forward and reminded us that we do not take free speech for granted in this city or in this country,” Kimmel said. “Your actions were important. We appreciate that.”

            Critics have noted the irony of Kimmel invoking free speech while routinely advocating for deplatforming or censorship of conservative voices.

            Kimmel also reflected on the year during his final episode of 2025, growing emotional as he thanked viewers for their loyalty.

            “It has been a hard year. We’ve had some lows. We’ve had some highs — for me, maybe more than any year of my life, but all of us,” he said through tears. “This year you literally pulled us out of a hole, and we cannot thank you enough personally, professionally…”

            Even in his closing message, Kimmel appeared unable to resist another jab at Trump and his supporters.

            “There is still much more good in this country than bad,” he told viewers, “and we hope that you will bear with us during this extended psychotic episode that we’re in the middle of.”

            President Trump has not publicly responded to Kimmel’s latest remarks, though allies have frequently criticized Hollywood figures for using award shows as political soapboxes while claiming to speak for “the country.”

            CNN Reporter Stunned By Turnout At Trump’s Rally In The Bronx

              9

              Democrats don’t like the look of this…

              CNN reporter Kristen Holmes was on the ground at former President Donald Trump’s rally in the Bronx on Thursday and couldn’t help but say she was stunned by the turnout in the deep blue community.

               During the rally, Trump was joined on stage at one point by rappers “Sheff G” and “Sleepy Hallow,” who both endorsed him, and some Bronx residents expressed their surprise that a presidential candidate would hold a rally in their neighborhood.

              While describing the rally to CNN host Anderson Cooper, Holmes said Trump had attracted “a bigger crowd than I think Democrats would like to see, particularly given this is one of the bluest counties in the entire country.”

              Holmes added that Trump’s event in the Bronx didn’t just pull in people from miles away who travel to the former president’s campaign rallies.

              “One of the things that was interesting to me is that the Trump campaign said that they were going to micro-target to get people from the community to come to this rally. I wasn’t sure what to expect, I’ve gone to a lot of these rallies across the country, and there are often people who travel hundreds of miles to see Donald Trump and they’re not necessarily part of the community. However, one of the things that I found was that there were a lot of people here that were actually from the Bronx,” Holmes reported.

              Diddy Boasts Of Potential Trump Pardon As Conviction Fallout Mounts

                1

                Disgraced hip-hop mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs, now serving time at FCI Fort Dix, is reportedly bragging to fellow inmates that a presidential pardon from Donald Trump is on the horizon.

                According to TMZ, Combs has been telling other convicts he expects to walk free early next year — and has even promised to “take care of them” once he’s back on the outside.

                When asked earlier this year about the possibility of a pardon, President Trump told Fox News’ Peter Doocy he’d be open to reviewing the case.

                “He used to really like me a lot, but I think when I ran for politics, that relationship busted up,” Trump said. “If I think somebody was mistreated, whether they like me or don’t like me, it wouldn’t have any impact on me.”

                Combs’s troubles stem from a sensational trial last month that pulled back the curtain on his decadent and abusive lifestyle. Jurors heard shocking testimony about drug-fueled “freak-offs” — private sex parties where women were allegedly coerced and mistreated.

                While Combs managed to avoid conviction on the more serious racketeering and sex-trafficking charges, he was found guilty of two counts of transporting women for prostitution under the federal Mann Act. The 55-year-old was sentenced to four years and two months in prison, fined $500,000, and ordered to complete five years of supervised release.

                The embattled music mogul isn’t done facing justice yet. He’s still staring down multiple civil suits accusing him of rape, assault, and human trafficking, painting an even darker picture of an entertainment empire built on exploitation and excess.

                While Democrats and their media allies once celebrated Combs as a cultural icon and political activist, his downfall now stands as a reminder that Hollywood and celebrity politics often mask deep corruption.
