Looks like the Epstein files are still a sore subject for Trump.

Donald Trump on Tuesday flipped off an autoworker during an appearance at a Ford plant in Dearborn, Michigan, dropping an F-bomb during the interaction for good measure.

Trump threw the bird after a worker in the crowd called him a “pedophile protector,” presumably a reference to the president’s relationship with the late sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein ― and his efforts to prevent the release of Justice Department files regarding Epstein in its possession.

Video of the incident obtained by TMZ shows Trump standing high on a walkway above the factory floor Tuesday in a full-length black peacoat.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said in a statement there was "no basis" for an investigation. The statement comes as new polling shows over half of Americans say the shooting was unjustified.

Justice Department officials said on Jan. 13 there is "no basis" for an investigation into the killing of Renee Nicole Good, the mother of three whose fatal shooting by an immigration enforcement agent sparked protests across the country.

"There is currently no basis for a criminal civil rights investigation," Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said in a statement referring to Good.

The 37-year-old was fatally shot on Jan. 7 in Minneapolis, Minnesota by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent Jonathan Ross, when she moved her car forward near the ICE agent. Her death has inspired widespread protests against the Trump administration’s militarized use of the Department of Homeland Security.

A social media post from the Department of Labor is attracting criticism for appearing to echo a Nazi-era slogan from the early 20th century.

The department posted to X on Jan. 10, "One Homeland. One People. One Heritage. Remember who you are, American."

Dozens of users commented and reposted, expressing alarm and outrage over what they called an alarming echo of what the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum describes as one of the central slogans used by Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party. That slogan is, "One People, One Realm, One Leader."

Adam Tooze, a British historian and author who has written about the Third Reich and Nazi Germany, said on social media that the phrase is from a "white nationalist anthem."

These two things are the same

The head of Iran’s judiciary signaled Wednesday there would be fast trials and executions ahead for those detained in nationwide protests despite a warning from Donald Trump.

The comments from Iran’s judiciary chief Gholamhossein Mohseni-Ejei come as activists had warned hangings of those detained could come soon.

Already, a bloody security force crackdown on the demonstrations has killed at least 2,571, the U.S.-based Human Rights Activists News Agency reported. That figure dwarfs the death toll from any other round of protest or unrest in Iran in decades and recalls the chaos surrounding the country’s 1979 Islamic Revolution.

Food prices surged 0.7% in December—the largest monthly increase in more than three years—as Americans heading into 2026 face sticker shock at the grocery store with beef, coffee, and produce prices climbing sharply. The data, released today by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, puts renewed pressure on the Trump administration to deliver on campaign promises to lower everyday costs.

A week after the Senate rebuffed Trump's military action in Venezuela, the fate of a rare war powers resolution remains in doubt, as a handful of Republicans face pressure to walk it back. Senators will have to make a choice on Wednesday when the chamber considers final votes on the resolution to block Trump’s ability to use military force again in Venezuela without Congressional approval.

When the Senate voted on Jan. 8 to move forward with the resolution, that procedural vote passed 52-47, with five Republicans joining all Senate Democrats. It was a clear rebuke of Trump’s action in Venezuela, which he authorized without giving advance notice to the members of the Senate Armed Services committee. In the intervening days, Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio have worked the phones to try to convince some of those Republicans to back off the resolution when it comes up for a final vote.

By late Tuesday, the question of whether the Senate would follow through on the resolution was in doubt. Even if the legislation passes the Senate, it is unlikely to become law, as it would still need to be approved by the Republican-controlled House and signed by Trump.

The leadership of the nearly 100-member Congressional Progressive Caucus said Tuesday that it will "oppose all funding" for US immigration enforcement in any upcoming government appropriations bills without substantial reforms, a position laid out as federal agents unleashed by President Donald Trump continued to terrorize communities across the country.

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), deputy chair of the CPC, said during a press conference alongside other caucus members that "demanding accountability is not radical." Omar represents the district where 37-year-old Renee Good was shot and killed by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent Jonathan Ross last week.

"Calling for systematic reforms is not extreme," Omar continued. "This is the bare minimum required to restore safety and justice back to our communities."

Omar, a frequent target of Trump's bigotry, said the CPC's official position is to "oppose all funding for immigration enforcement in any appropriation bills until meaningful reforms are enacted to end militarized policing practices."

"We cannot and we should not continue to fund agencies that operate with impunity, that escalate violence, and that undermine the very freedoms this country claims to uphold," the congresswoman said. "ICE has no place in terrorizing Minneapolis or any American community."

The CPC's press conference marked an intensification of a fight over Department of Homeland Security (DHS) funding that erupted in the wake of Good's killing in Minneapolis last week. ICE, which is part of DHS, currently has a larger budget than that of a dozen national militaries, thanks to a massive infusion of funding approved by congressional Republicans and Donald Trump last summer.

NBC News reported Tuesday that "Democratic opposition has already frozen a DHS measure that was slated to be added to an appropriations package getting a Senate vote this week."

"Congress may have to fall back on a stopgap bill to prevent a funding lapse for DHS," the outlet added. "That’s where things get trickier for Democrats. If House Republicans pass a continuing resolution on their own, which would keep DHS running on autopilot, Senate Democrats would again have to choose between accepting it and forcing a partial shutdown."

Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D-Conn.), the top Democratic appropriator in the House, said Tuesday that she does "not support increasing funding for ICE" and is "looking at policy riders in the homeland security funding bill to rein in ICE."

"ICE is terrorizing our communities, and I have called on masked, armed ICE agents to leave our towns," DeLauro added.

An Economist/YouGov poll released this week found that, for the first time, more Americans support abolishing ICE entirely (46%) than oppose it (43%). Democratic support for abolishing ICE is currently at 77%, according to the survey.

In an appearance on MS NOW, Omar said that "we want this terror to stop."

"People are angry. People are frustrated. They're confused. They don't understand why this chaos is necessary," said Omar. "And they certainly do not want this level of militarized ICE and border agents just roaming the streets, harassing and terrorizing their neighbors."

The president of Oglala Sioux Tribe in South Dakota on Tuesday called for the immediate release of tribal members who were detained at a homeless encampment by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Minnesota last week.

Three of the four Oglala Sioux Tribe members who were arrested in Minneapolis on Friday have been transferred to an ICE facility at Fort Snelling, President Frank Star Comes Out said in a statement released with a memorandum sent to federal immigration authorities.

“The Oglala Sioux Tribe’s memorandum makes clear that ‘tribal citizens are not aliens’ and are ‘categorically outside immigration jurisdiction,’” Star Comes Out said. “Enrolled tribal members are citizens of the United States by statute and citizens of the Oglala Sioux Nation by treaty.”
