    President And First Lady Call On ABC News To Fire Jimmy Kimmel

    First Lady Melania Trump is demanding consequences for late-night host Jimmy Kimmel after what she called “hateful” rhetoric—just days before a terrifying security breach at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.

    Kimmel sparked outrage last week during a parody segment in which he mocked the Trumps, referring to the first lady as “an expectant widow” while joking about their marriage.

    “Our first lady, Melania, is here. Look at Melania, so beautiful. Mrs. Trump, you have a glow like an expectant widow,” Kimmel said.

    The remark drew fierce backlash after a suspected would-be assassin attempted to storm the Correspondents’ Dinner on Saturday. Authorities say 31-year-old Cole Allen of Torrance, California, rushed a Secret Service checkpoint at the Washington Hilton armed with multiple weapons and opened fire, wounding an agent before being taken into custody.

    In the aftermath, Melania Trump took to X with a blistering response.

    “Kimmel’s hateful and violent rhetoric is intended to divide our country. His monologue about my family isn’t comedy—his words are corrosive and deepens the political sickness within America,” she wrote.

    “People like Kimmel shouldn’t have the opportunity to enter our homes each evening to spread hate. A coward, Kimmel hides behind ABC because he knows the network will keep running cover to protect him. Enough is enough,” the first lady continued. “It is time for ABC to take a stand. How many times will ABC’s leadership enable Kimmel’s atrocious behavior at the expense of our community.”

    President Donald Trump echoed the call, demanding immediate action from the network.

    “Wow, Jimmy Kimmel, who is in no way funny as attested to by his terrible Television Ratings, made a statement on his Show that is really shocking,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

    “He then stated, ‘Our First Lady, Melania, is here… you have a glow like an expectant widow.’ A day later a lunatic tried entering the ballroom of the White House Correspondents Dinner, loaded up with a shotgun, handgun, and many knives. He was there for a very obvious and sinister reason,” Trump continued.

    “I appreciate that so many people are incensed by Kimmel’s despicable call to violence… this is something far beyond the pale. Jimmy Kimmel should be immediately fired by Disney and ABC.”

    Kimmel, however, pushed back during his Monday night monologue, insisting the joke was harmless.

    “It was a very light roast joke about the fact that he’s almost 80 and she’s younger than I am. It was not by any stretch of the definition a call to assassination. And they know that,” he said.

    While expressing sympathy for those shaken by the incident, Kimmel rejected any suggestion his comments played a role.

    “I am sorry that you and the president and everyone in that room on Saturday went through that. I really am,” he said. “Because no one got killed doesn’t mean it wasn’t traumatic and scary… But do you want us to believe that a joke I made three days before this dinner had any effect on anything that happened?”

    He added, “I’ve been very vocal for many years speaking out against gun violence… and I think a great place to start to dial that back would be to have a conversation with your husband about it.”

    Despite the backlash, ABC appears unmoved.

    A network source told Page Six that executives are standing by their late-night host and have no plans to discipline him.

    “It’s back to taping per usual. They’re moving on,” the insider said.

    Kimmel has faced controversy before. Last year, ABC parent company Disney briefly suspended “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” after comments related to the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk triggered outrage and drew scrutiny from FCC Chairman Brendan Carr, who called the remarks “some of the sickest conduct.”

    Kimmel later returned to air, saying he never intended to make light of the tragedy.

    For now, despite renewed calls for his removal, it appears Kimmel’s job is safe—leaving critics fuming and the broader debate over media rhetoric once again front and center.

    WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump has intensified his ongoing feud with conservative commentator Candace Owens by sharing a doctored TIME magazine-style cover portraying her as “Vile Person of the Year,” along with fresh personal insults.

    The image, posted on Trump’s social media platform, depicted Owens on a mocked-up TIME cover — a format often used for satire or political messaging — and labeled her with the inflammatory title. Trump also referred to Owens as “low IQ” in accompanying remarks.

    As Mediaite reports:

    “Candace Owens’ stock, which was never very high, has fallen a long way,” wrote Trump. “Her attack on the First Lady of France is despicable. I believe, in this case, without verification, she is an extremely Low IQ individual!”

    The attached image was clearly meant to show Owens in an unflattering light, with raised exposure and a black-and-white filter. Along with the title “Vile Person of the Year,” other text on the cover reads, “Candace Owens lies, lies, lies,” “uses rich white men,” “0% fact check ratio on all credible fact checking sites,” and “protects sex offenders!”

    On April 9, Trump posted on Truth Social:

    I know why Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and Alex Jones have all been fighting me for years, especially by the fact that they think it is wonderful for Iran, the Number One State Sponsor of Terror, to have a Nuclear Weapon — Because they have one thing in common, Low IQs. They’re stupid people, they know it, their families know it, and everyone else knows it, too!

    Owens reacted on X with a cutting remark, writing, “It may be time to put Grandpa up in a home.”

    The post drew swift attention across political and media circles, with reactions ranging from criticism of the rhetoric to concerns about political distractions as major issues dominate the lead-up to the midterm election.

    Leak Reveals Trump Planning ‘Mic-Drop’ Showdown With Media At WHCA Dinner

    WASHINGTON — A leaked report indicates President Donald Trump is preparing a high-profile confrontation with the press at this weekend’s White House Correspondents’ Association dinner, signaling a return to direct engagement after years of boycotting the event.

    According to the report, Trump plans to deliver a sharply critical speech targeting media outlets he believes have treated his administration unfairly — particularly coverage of the ongoing Iran conflict — before making a quick exit from the event.

    Planned ‘Mic-Drop’ Moment

    Sources familiar with the plan say Trump intends to use the traditionally lighthearted dinner as a platform for a more combative message, aimed at what he has frequently described as hostile or biased coverage.

    The strategy reportedly includes:

    • Direct criticism of specific outlets
    • A short, pointed address rather than a traditional speech
    • Leaving immediately afterward — before awards and entertainment begin

    That approach would break with longstanding tradition, where presidents typically remain for the full program and participate in a comedic back-and-forth with the press.

    Timing and Optics

    The reported plan comes as tensions between the administration and the media remain elevated, particularly over coverage of military operations involving Iran.

    Trump has long accused broad swaths of the press of unfair reporting, while journalists have defended their coverage as part of standard scrutiny of government actions.

    His expected appearance would mark his first attendance at the annual dinner as president after previously skipping it during both terms.

    Breaking With Tradition

    The WHCA dinner has historically served as a symbolic — if sometimes tense — moment of interaction between the presidency and the press corps.

    In recent years, the event has evolved:

    • Comedians, once a staple, have been replaced or scaled back
    • The tone has shifted away from direct political roasting
    • Attendance by presidents has become less consistent

    This year’s program reportedly features a mentalist rather than a comedian, reflecting efforts to avoid controversy tied to past appearances.

    Political Context

    The planned speech also carries broader political implications.

    A direct confrontation with the media — especially in a high-visibility setting — could energize supporters who view press coverage as adversarial, while further straining relations with journalists already at odds with the administration.

    What Comes Next

    It remains unclear whether Trump will follow through exactly as outlined in the leaked plan.

    But if he does, the dinner could shift from a ceremonial event into a high-stakes political moment — one likely to reverberate beyond a single evening in Washington.

    DeSantis Mentioned As Possible Trump Supreme Court Nominee

    President Donald Trump has told confidants that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is angling for a role in the Trump administration, describing the governor as “begging” for consideration, according to a report from Axios.

    Trump, speaking privately, claimed DeSantis specifically sought the position of attorney general. One person familiar with the conversation said Trump put it bluntly: “Ron was begging me to be AG.”

    Private meeting sparks speculation

    The remarks followed a private lunch between the two Republicans at Trump National Doral Golf Club in Miami roughly a week earlier. Multiple sources briefed on the meeting said the discussion went beyond casual politics and touched on DeSantis’ future after leaving the governor’s office.

    DeSantis is term-limited and set to step down in January 2027, which makes his next move one of the more open questions in Republican politics.

    Not everyone close to the conversation agrees with Trump’s characterization. One source described the exchange as broader and less defined.

    “There was a conversation at that lunch,” the person said. “I don’t think AG is real. But he’s gonna be looking for work and Trump likes him.”

    Competing accounts of DeSantis’ interests

    Other accounts suggest DeSantis has different ambitions.

    According to Axios, a source familiar with his thinking said the governor has little interest in serving as attorney general. Instead, two roles stand out: secretary of defense or a future seat on the U.S. Supreme Court.

    “DeSantis is 100% not interested in the AG job,” the source said. “But he would be interested in two things: War secretary or Supreme Court, which would be his dream job.”

    The same source pointed to DeSantis’ long-standing admiration for Justice Clarence Thomas, noting the two “almost have a father-son relationship.” DeSantis has frequently cited Thomas as a model for constitutional interpretation and has publicly defended him amid criticism from the left.

    From rivals to allies

    The behind-the-scenes discussions reflect a shift in the relationship between Trump and DeSantis.

    The two were rivals during the 2024 Republican presidential primary, where tensions often played out in public. That dynamic changed after DeSantis exited the race and endorsed Trump. Since then, both camps have signaled a more cooperative approach.

    DeSantis’ office pushed back on the idea that he is lobbying for a specific job, emphasizing instead that the governor “enjoys a great relationship with President Trump.”

    Trump, for his part, has said publicly he would consider bringing DeSantis into his administration once the governor leaves office, though no formal offer has been made.

    What comes next

    Any path forward remains uncertain.

    A Supreme Court appointment would depend on a vacancy, something no administration can guarantee. A Defense Department role would require changes in current leadership. And while DeSantis has not ruled out another presidential run, joining an administration could offer a different route to stay relevant on national policy.

    For now, the conversations appear informal and fluid. But with DeSantis’ term winding down and Trump continuing to shape his political team, the question of where the Florida governor lands is unlikely to fade anytime soon.

    ‘Tormented’ Tucker Carlson Apologizes For ‘Misleading’ Viewers On Trump

    Conservative commentator Tucker Carlson said he is “sorry” for misleading viewers about President Donald Trump, acknowledging in Monday’s episode of his podcast that his past support helped shape public perception.

    Speaking on “The Tucker Carlson Show” alongside his brother, Buckley Swanson Peck Carlson, he said he feels “tormented” by his past backing of Trump and accepted some responsibility for helping elevate him politically.

    “I want to say I’m sorry for misleading people,” Carlson said, adding that the impact of those decisions will weigh on him “for a long time.”

    Carlson also reflected on what he described as missed warning signs, saying that he and others who supported Trump are “implicated” in the current political landscape.

    WATCH:

    The remarks come amid a growing public rift between Carlson and Trump, with the president increasingly criticizing the commentator in a series of social media posts.

    Carlson, once one of Trump’s most prominent media allies, has become more critical in recent months, particularly over foreign policy decisions and messaging.

    As Mediaite reports:

    Trump has repeatedly lashed out at Carlson in recent months in response to his former ally becoming increasingly critical of the Trump administration – most notably its handling of the Epstein files and the president’s war against Iran.

    This month, the president called Carlson “a Low IQ person,” “stupid,” and “highly overrated” in several Truth Social rants attacking him, as well as other former allies, including Megyn Kelly, Alex Jones, and Candace Owens.

    Responding to Trump’s attacks this month, Carlson remarked, “I’ve always liked Trump and still feel sorry for him, as I do for all slaves… He’s hemmed in by other forces. He can’t make his own decisions. It’s awful to watch.”

    Carlson’s son Buckley Carlson – who shares the same name as his uncle – left his job as Vice President JD Vance’s deputy press secretary last week following Trump’s repeated attacks against his father.

    Monday’s apology follows earlier revelations from legal proceedings indicating Carlson had privately expressed skepticism about Trump even while publicly supporting him.

    The remarks have drawn mixed reactions across the political spectrum.

    Some critics view the apology as an acknowledgment of the influence prominent media figures can have on public opinion. Others have questioned the timing, given Carlson’s long-standing role in shaping conservative discourse.

    It remains unclear whether the comments signal a lasting shift in Carlson’s political stance or a temporary break, similar to the waning support he showed toward the end of Trump’s first term.

    The episode underscores continuing divisions within conservative media and the broader political movement surrounding Trump, as the administration’s attention remains focused on international developments.

    FBI Director Kash Patel Sues The Atlantic For $250M

    WASHINGTON — FBI Director Kash Patel has filed a $250 million defamation lawsuit against The Atlantic and one of its reporters, accusing the publication of running what he describes as a “malicious” and false report about his conduct in office.

    The lawsuit, filed Monday in federal court in Washington, D.C., centers on a weekend article that alleged Patel engaged in excessive drinking, erratic behavior, and unexplained absences while leading the FBI.

    Patel has denied the allegations, calling them “categorically false” and claiming the article relied heavily on anonymous sources with political bias.

    In the complaint, Patel’s legal team argues that The Atlantic knowingly published false information or acted with reckless disregard for the truth — a standard known as “actual malice,” which public figures must prove in defamation cases.

    His attorneys also say the outlet was warned prior to publication that the claims were untrue but proceeded anyway.

    The Atlantic report cited multiple unnamed sources who claimed Patel’s alleged behavior raised concerns inside the FBI and Justice Department.

    Among the allegations:

    • Frequent intoxication
    • Missed or rescheduled meetings
    • Periods of being unreachable during critical moments

    The magazine’s article, titled “The FBI Director Is MIA,” cited more than two dozen anonymous sources who described a series of troubling incidents.

    According to the report, Patel is alleged to have engaged in “conspicuous inebriation” at high-profile clubs in Washington, D.C. and Las Vegas. Officials cited in the article also claimed Patel, 46, has had “unexplained absences” and has frequently delayed or rescheduled meetings and briefings following what were described as “alcohol-fueled nights.”

    In one instance, the report states Patel was so unresponsive behind locked doors that his security detail requested “breaching equipment” — typically used by SWAT teams — to gain entry and check on his condition.

    The article also described an episode in which Patel reportedly believed he had been fired after being unable to log into his FBI computer system, later discovering the issue was due to a technical error.

    Fox News continues:

    The lawsuit states The Atlantic, and its staff writer, Sarah Fitzpatrick, must be held “accountable for a sweeping, malicious, and defamatory hit piece published on April 17, 2026.”

    It continued, “Defendants are of course free to criticize the leadership of the FBI, but they crossed the legal line by publishing an article replete with false and obviously fabricated allegations designed to destroy Director Patel’s reputation and drive him from office.”

    Fitzpatrick reported, among other claims, that Patel has been difficult to wake up by his security team on multiple occasions because he was seemingly intoxicated.

    Patel vowed over the weekend to sue The Atlantic for the story. He told Fox News Digital, “The Atlantic’s story is a lie. They were given the truth before they published, and they chose to print falsehoods anyway. I took this job to protect the American people and this FBI has delivered the most prolific reduction in crime in US history. Fake news won’t report it, and their toxicity will never erode nor stop our mission.”

    The Atlantic and Fitzpatrick have defended the article, saying it was based on extensive reporting and multiple sources.

    Judge Dismisses Trump’s Wall Street Journal Defamation Suit

    A federal judge on Monday dismissed President Trump’s defamation lawsuit against The Wall Street Journal over a report detailing a letter Trump allegedly sent to disgraced sex offender Jeffrey Epstein for his 50th birthday.

    Trump has denied writing the letter and claims it was fabricated. But U.S. District Judge Darrin Gayles ruled that the president failed to meet the high legal standard required for public figures to pursue defamation claims—specifically, showing “actual malice.”

    “The Complaint comes nowhere close to this standard. Quite the opposite,” Gayles wrote.

    Gayles, who sits on the federal bench in Miami and was appointed by former President Obama, said Trump may attempt to amend and refile the lawsuit.

    The suit stems from a July filing after The Wall Street Journal published a report about a 2003 letter Trump allegedly sent to Epstein. The letter reportedly included several lines of text “framed by the outline of a naked woman” and ended with the message, “Happy Birthday — and may every day be another wonderful secret.”

    Trump has said he warned the Journal the letter was fake before publication and argued the outlet should have known the story was false. The Journal has stood by its reporting.

    In his ruling, Gayles emphasized that the court was not deciding whether Trump actually wrote the letter.

    “Because the Court finds that the Complaint fails to adequately allege actual malice, it declines to address these issues at this juncture,” Gayles wrote. “Moreover, whether President Trump was the author of the Letter or Epstein’s friend are questions of fact that cannot be determined at this stage of the litigation.”

    The judge also noted that even if Trump had successfully alleged actual malice, his claims for special damages would still fail.

    A spokesperson for Trump’s legal team said the president plans to continue pursuing the case.

    “President Trump will follow Judge Gayles’s ruling and guidance to refile this powerhouse lawsuit against the Wall Street Journal and all of the other Defendants,” the spokesperson said in a statement. “The President will continue to hold accountable those who traffic in Fake News to mislead the American People.”

    The lawsuit names The Wall Street Journal, the two reporters who wrote the story, News Corp, its CEO, Dow Jones, and Rupert Murdoch as defendants.

    The case comes amid renewed attention on Epstein and his past associations. Trump has denied any wrongdoing related to Epstein and has said the two had a falling out years ago.

    Last week, First Lady Melania Trump also addressed the issue from the White House, denying any connection to Epstein and claiming she was being defamed.

    “The individuals lying about me are devoid of ethical standards, humility and respect,” she said from the Grand Foyer. “I do not object to their ignorance, but rather I reject their mean-spirited attempts to defame my reputation.”

    Megyn Kelly Calls U.S.-Iran Ceasefire ‘Surrender’ In Blistering Interview

    Conservative media personality and former Fox News host Megyn Kelly sharply criticized President Donald Trump’s handling of the recent U.S.–Iran conflict, describing the resulting ceasefire as resembling a “surrender” by the United States—even as she acknowledged supporting the decision to end the fighting.

    Speaking in an interview on Piers Morgan Uncensored, Kelly offered a blunt assessment of the agreement reached between the Trump administration and Iranian officials, a two-week ceasefire brokered with the help of Pakistani mediators.

    “You got to say, the deal sounds very much like surrender on our part, which I’m in favor of. I mean, great. This needed to end, ugly, or any other way, it needed to end. It was folly to begin with. It was folly throughout. It remains folly,” Kelly told Morgan.

    The ceasefire came shortly before a deadline Trump imposed for Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global shipping route. Despite the pause in hostilities, Trump warned that U.S. forces would remain positioned in and around Iran and could carry out further strikes if Tehran failed to comply with a broader agreement.

    Yet Kelly’s critique extended far beyond the ceasefire itself. In a wide-ranging and at times blistering exchange with Morgan, she questioned how the conflict began and why Trump embraced it in the first place—pointing in particular to the influence of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

    “What led Trump, what, at 79 years old, to sit in there in that situation room when Bibi Netanyahu was seated as an equal?” she asked. “Trump didn’t even sit at the head of the table. Trump sat at the side of the tables and Bibi was across from him as an equal in the American situation room. What led him to sit there and buy what that guy was selling hook, line, and sinker when every other president was able to see through that liar? What was it?”

    Kelly cited reporting from journalist Maggie Haberman and co-author Jonathan Swan, which described internal skepticism from top U.S. officials—including CIA Director John Ratcliffe, Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Dan Caine, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio—about intelligence presented by Netanyahu.

    “Because he was told the next day by our own top advisers, from the chairman of the Joint Chiefs to the secretary of state to the vice president, that these are lies and that these objectives are not going to be attainable. Don’t believe him!” Kelly said.

    She acknowledged that limited military gains may have been possible but rejected the broader claims made by Trump about the outcome of the conflict.

    “We might be able to wipe out the Ayatollah, not regime change, Ayatollah. And we might be able to decimate some portion of their missiles and their military. OK, that’s true,” she said. “But the goals as stated by Trump when we did pull the trigger. We’re all over the board into this moment.”

    Kelly was especially critical of Trump’s assertion that the U.S. had achieved regime change in Iran.

    “He’s pushing the BS claim that we effected regime change. No, we didn’t! It’s the same regime, just different players. There isn’t somebody more moderate in there at all. We have no reason to believe that.”

    Instead, she argued, the outcome may have strengthened more hardline elements within Iran.

    “In fact, it looks like the Iranian Revolutionary Guard is in control now, which is far more radical. And the fatwa that had allegedly been issued by the Ayatollah on developing nukes is gone.”

    She added that Iran now appears to hold increased leverage, both economically and strategically.

    “Iran is more powerful economically. It controls the Strait and now is demanding the lifting of all sanctions against it.”

    Kelly also criticized what she described as Trump’s shifting position on a proposed 10-point plan to resolve the conflict.

    “And what Trump did with that 10-point plan was go from Monday saying, no, not good, to Tuesday saying, very workable. We can do it as a means of saving face to bail off of his insane threats about annihilating an entire civilization.”

    Her frustration extended to Trump’s rhetoric more broadly, including social media posts in which he referenced extreme military action.

    “I don’t know about you, but I am sick of this s—! I’m just — I’m sick of it. Can’t he just behave like a normal human? I mean, honestly, like the president — ‘3D chess’ — just shut up,” she said on her podcast. “F—ing shut up about that s—! You don’t threaten to wipe out an entire civilization. We’re talking about civilians, just casually in a social media post.”

    Ultimately, Kelly placed responsibility for the conflict on a combination of external influence and presidential decision-making.

    “So I don’t know how we got here, Piers. I’d like to know just as much as anybody else, but all I can think in my head, based on what I’ve read in the paper, is we got her thanks to Bibi Netanyahu, Lindsey Graham, and Mark Levin.”

    “And ultimately, President Trump, that’s not to take agency away from the president, who was bamboozled. I don’t know why he was too weak to say no. He was too gullible to see through the lies.”

    “One way or another, he allowed himself to be pushed into this insane conflict.”

    White House Press Sec. Reveals How Trump Gave Her The Role

    Karoline Leavitt didn’t get a formal sit-down, a public rollout, or even much buildup before landing one of the most visible jobs in Washington.

    Instead, she got a casual aside on a phone call.

    Speaking Thursday night at a Turning Point USA event at George Washington University, the White House press secretary recounted how President Donald Trump informed her she would take on the role — in what she described as “the most anti-climatic thing ever.”

    “About a week after the election, we were on the phone about something, the president and me, just chit-chatting,” Leavitt said.

    “And it was the most anti-climatic thing ever. He goes, ‘Oh, by the way, you know, you’re going to be the White House press secretary, right?’”

    Her response: “Oh, okay.”

    Trump quickly moved on.

    “And he said, ‘So about that other thing, what do you think about that? What should we do? What should we say?’”

    “That was it. That’s how I got the job,” she said.

    Leavitt emphasized there was “no pomp and circumstance,” calling the moment “true Donald Trump fashion” and noting that “there really wasn’t a process.”

    At the time, she had been working as a spokesperson on Trump’s 2024 campaign after losing her congressional bid in New Hampshire.

    “I thought, I hope I’ll get a job. I don’t know if I will,” she said.

    Leavitt, who gave birth to her son in July 2024, is currently nine months pregnant with a daughter — adding another layer of intensity to a role she says began with little more than an offhand comment.

    Political Strategist Says Democrats Will Target Trump’s Family After Midterms

    By

    Veteran Democratic strategist James Carville is escalating his rhetoric against President Donald Trump, warning that Democrats will aggressively target not just the president—but his family—if they win back power in the 2026 midterms.

    In a new video this week, Carville predicted sweeping GOP losses in November, framing the expected outcome as a political knockout that would leave Trump exposed to a wave of investigations.

    “Let’s talk about your future, your post-November future,” Carville said, anticipating widespread defeat of Trump and the GOP. “The Democrats are going to investigate you to no end.”

    “They’re going to start going after you. Then they’re going to start figuring out where all the money stolen is,” he continued. “Then they’re going to go after your stupid jacka– kids and their spouses and all the other bulls— that you see, and they’re going to investigate the s— out of you.”

    The comments build on a broader—and increasingly aggressive—set of predictions from Carville, who has repeatedly argued that Democrats are poised for major midterm gains. Across multiple recent appearances, he has claimed Republicans are heading toward significant losses, citing voter frustration over inflation, dissatisfaction with Trump’s leadership, and fallout from the administration’s handling of the Iran conflict.

    Carville has gone even further, suggesting those losses could trigger a chain reaction inside Washington: Democratic control of Congress, immediate impeachment proceedings, and a flood of investigations into Trump’s finances, conduct in office, and inner circle.

    Trump himself has warned that a Democratic victory would lead to exactly that scenario, arguing that impeachment and investigations would follow quickly if Republicans lose control of the House or Senate.

    Carville, however, is not just predicting investigations—he is openly embracing them. He has previously urged Democrats to center their messaging on accountability, including proposals for commissions to examine alleged “war profiteering” tied to the Iran conflict, which he has called a “catastrophe of the first order” and a “racket war.”

    In his latest remarks, Carville also raised the possibility that Trump could face scrutiny beyond U.S. borders.

    “When it comes to the stuff you’re doing in Iran, I got to tell you, you’re getting really, really, really close to war crimes here. You’re probably going to cross the line,” Carville warned. “And the one thing that Democrats are going to insist on in the 2028 election is that if you’re indicted by the international courts and I think it’s in Hog or Hague or somewhere in the Netherlands, we’re not going to protect your a–, not gonna protect you.”

    He added that Trump’s political support could quickly erode—even within his own party—if Republicans suffer major defeats.

    “You know who’s going to turn on you?” Carville asked. “What’s left of the Republican senators.”

    Carville has repeatedly floated a dramatic endgame: that the mounting pressure—from investigations, impeachment threats, and political isolation—could ultimately push Trump to resign early and seek a pardon from Vice President JD Vance. Still, he has argued that even a presidential pardon would not shield Trump from state-level or international legal exposure.

    “I got news for you, dude. You’re done,” he said. “And we’re going to enjoy watching your downfall. Thank you very much.”

    The White House quickly fired back. In a statement to Fox News Digital, a spokesperson said, “James Carville is a stone-cold loser who clearly suffers from a severe and debilitating case of Trump Derangement Syndrome that has rotted his peanut-sized brain.”

    Carville’s latest comments are consistent with his long track record of blunt—and often controversial—political predictions. In recent years, he has repeatedly forecast Trump’s political collapse, including predicting a Democratic victory in 2024 and even suggesting Trump’s second administration would “collapse in 30 days.”

    Now, with the 2026 midterms approaching, Carville is once again making a high-stakes call—this time not just about electoral outcomes, but about what he believes will be an aggressive, wide-ranging effort to investigate Trump, his family, and those closest to him if Democrats take back power.
