The president was mocked on Thursday, May 1, after taking to Truth Social with a bizarre rant about World War II, as he called for Americans to celebrate the end of the war on May 8 — which marked the official surrender of all German military operations in 1945 — despite the United States’ battles continuing until September 2 of that year, when Japan officially surrendered.
“Many of our allies and friends are celebrating May 8th as Victory Day, but we did more than any other country, by far, in producing a victorious result on World War II. I am hereby renaming May 8th as Victory Day for World War II and November 11th as Victory Day for World War I,” Trump wrote via his social media platform, ignoring the fact that November 11 is Veterans Day — which honors those who served in the United States Armed Forces.
‘Moron’ Donald Trump Blasted for Announcing WWII Victory Day on Wrong Date and for Trying to Rename Veterans Day
Donald Trump is quite literally trying to rewrite history. The president was mocked on Thursday, May 1, after taking to Truth Social with a bizarre rant about World War II, as he called for Americans to celebrate the end of the war on May 8 — which marked the official surrender of all German military operations in 1945 — despite the United States’…
Tim Parlatore is a personal attorney and top adviser to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. At the same time, he’s suing the Navy and defending private clients against the U.S. government.
Parlatore, who represented Donald Trump in a criminal case two years ago and rejoined the Navy Reserve in March to aid Hegseth, was recently tapped to coordinate the leak investigation that led to chaos at the Pentagon. The probe was publicly tied to the firings of top advisers and preceded further revelations that Hegseth was careless with classified information. Parlatore was also reportedly in the Signal group with Hegseth’s wife and brother in which the Defense secretary shared details of a strike on Yemen.
Hegseth attorney’s dual roles trip conflict of interest alarms
Tim Parlatore’s close relationship with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth — while representing legal clients facing off against the department — is drawing scrutiny.
According to a former adviser to ex-House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH), Donald Trump will end up paying the price for derailing a U.S. economy that was on the upswing when he took office.
Appearing on MSNBC with host Chris Jansing, GOP insider Brendan Buck hammered the president over his trade war and stated he will have to live with the consequences of the financial instability his tariffs have created.
With Jansing pointing to the new jobs report that shows unemployment stalled at 4.2 percent, she asked her guest, “I wonder if we’re going to see the president taking credit for this in the economy, right after claiming it’s actually Joe Biden’s economy?”
“Yeah, well, the White House already put out a paper declaring a jobs boom today,” the amused Buck replied before quipping, “So yeah, of course. When the GDP numbers go down it’s Joe Biden’s economy. When jobs numbers look good, it’s Trump’s economy.”
Turning serious, he continued, “Look, I think this shows two things. One, as we discussed, Donald Trump inherited an economy that was ready to take off; he didn’t have to do a whole lot to have a really solid economic legacy. But he’s completely botched it through this trade policy.”

Fears of being detained are in overdrive, even if the Trump administration insists that they’re overblown.
Jeff Joseph, a 53-year-old immigration attorney in Colorado, has recently started taking precautions while traveling abroad that, at another time, he would have considered a little paranoid. He leaves his phone at home. Instead, he carries a “burner’’—a device scrubbed of his contact list and communications—in case U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers send him to secondary inspection or seize his electronics when he returns home. Joseph told me his knowledge of immigration law has left him with less confidence, not more, about the risks of crossing U.S. borders during the second Trump administration.
“Among immigration lawyers who are well versed in this, and who know what happens in secondary, there’s a level of anxiety and panic that we’ve never seen before,” said Joseph, the president-elect of the American Immigration Lawyers Association. “Myself included.”

Immigration attorneys also note Trump has curbed CBP officers’ ability to allow the entry of migrants or visitors using an authority known as “parole.” So travelers who do not qualify for admission to the United States are more likely to be handed over to ICE for detention and deportation. Although U.S. citizens cannot be denied entry to the United States, all other categories of noncitizens—even, in some cases, legal permanent residents with green cards—are at risk of being denied entry or deemed inadmissible by a CBP officer.
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney slapped down Donald Trump in a meeting at the White House, indicating Canada is “not for sale”. President Trump and Prime Minister Carney met for the first time in person in the Oval Office today (Tuesday) after the US leader had previously said he would like to make Canada the “51st state”.
However, as the pair sat down in chairs in front of the assembled media, Mr Carney said “some places are never for sale”, adding that: “It won’t be for sale ever”. Before the meeting Mr Trump had taken to the unusual step of posting on social media, raging that the US didn’t need “anything” from Canada in the context of Canadian imports of lumber, cars and electricity.
King Donald pretends he won’t discuss making Canada our 51st state:
Mr Trump said, “It takes two to tango,” when asked about Canada becoming part of the United States, but that “we’re not going to be discussing that unless someone wants to discuss it”.
But then the buffoon rambles on:
President Trump then listed benefits he believed Canadians would receive by ceding their sovereignty, but Mr Carney held firm on the matter.
The Canadian Prime Minister, and former Governor of the Bank of England, replied: “As you know from real estate, there are some places that are never for sale, we’re sitting in one now…it’s not for sale. It won’t be for sale.”
However, even as the conversation moved on, Mr Trump couldn’t resist quipping: “Never say never.”
Donald Trump slapped down by Mark Carney – ‘Canada is not for sale’
Donald Trump is meeting Mark Carney at the White House.
US officials have argued the traffic stop in November 2022, during which Abrego Garcia was not detained, supports their claims that Abrego Garcia was a member of MS-13 and involved in human trafficking. The stop resulted in no charges, and there was no mention of human trafficking in the parts of the redacted report that have been made available.
Yet the 2022 traffic stop now could play into the ongoing political debate and legal standoff over Abrego Garcia, who is still in El Salvador while a federal judge demands answers and more evidence from the Trump administration.
So far in the ongoing court proceeding over his custody, his attorneys have said that the US in his 2019 immigration proceedings offered little reason to believe Abrego Garcia was tied to a gang, other than the fact he wore a Chicago Bulls hat and that a confidential informant provided a tip to authorities.
…
“There is no known link or association between him and the MS-13 gang,” his lawyers told the federal judge last month.
In a statement provided to CNN regarding the bodycam footage, Abrego Garcia’s attorney Simon Sandoval-Moshenberg said, his client “has been denied the most basic protections of due process—no phone call to his lawyer, no call to his wife or child, and no opportunity to be heard.”
Sandoval-Moshenberg added that “I see no evidence of a crime in this footage. But the point is not the traffic stop — it’s that Mr. Abrego Garcia deserves his day in court. Bring him back to the United States, return him before the same immigration judge who heard his case in 2019, and let him speak for himself.”
…
Earlier, a spokesperson for the Tennessee Highway Patrol told CNN that Abrego Garcia was flagged to federal law enforcement, “who made the decision not to detain him.”
According to a Department of Homeland Security statement released last month about the incident, federal officials released Abrego Garcia with a warning for driving with an expired license.
And today Trump’s minions are desperately grasping at straws to deport anyone and everyone they can so as to increase their deportation counts.

California Attorney General Rob Bonta is demanding state detention centers make “significant improvements” to comply with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention standards.
That’s after a new 165-page report from the Department of Justice released Monday found that all of the state’s six privately-operated immigration detention facilities are failing to meet basic requirements for mental health care, medical recordkeeping, and suicide prevention. The report also found excessive use of force, discipline against detainees and use of solitary confinement.

The refurbished prison would house ‘America’s most ruthless and violent offenders’, US president says
Donald Trump has ordered the US Bureau of Prisons to reopen and expand Alcatraz, the notorious former prison off the coast of San Francisco.
In a message posted on Truth Social, his online platform, on Sunday night, the US president announced his plan to turn the small island into symbol of law and order, to deter “vicious” criminals whom he called the “dregs of society”.
“For too long, America has been plagued by vicious, violent, and repeat criminal offenders, the dregs of society, who will never contribute anything other than misery and suffering,” Mr Trump wrote.
“When we were a more serious nation, in times past, we did not hesitate to lock up the most dangerous criminals, and keep them far away from anyone they could harm. That’s the way it’s supposed to be.
“That is why, today, I am directing the Bureau of Prisons, together with the Department of Justice, FBI, and Homeland Security, to reopen a substantially enlarged and rebuilt ALCATRAZ, to house America’s most ruthless and violent offenders.”
He added: “The reopening of ALCATRAZ will serve as a symbol of Law, Order, and JUSTICE.”

Last month Jihun Han, chief of staff to the US secretary of labor, Lori Chavez-DeRemer, sent a staff-wide email warning they could face criminal charges for speaking to journalists about agency business.
“All of the core aspects of working life can no longer be assumed, because the Department of Labor was chronically underfunded for a long time, and eliminating half the staff, or whatever their goals are, will cause it to be absolutely dysfunctional,” the BLS employee said. “I think it’s catastrophic.”
Paranoid, anyone?
Ever heard of the First Amendment?
Mass resignations at labor department threaten workers in US and overseas, warn staff – as more cuts loom
A “catastrophic” exodus of thousands of employees from the US Department of Labor threatens “all of the core aspects of working life”, insiders have warned, amid fears that the Trump administration will further slash the agency’s operations. The federal agency has already lost about 20% of its workforce, according to employees, as nearly 2,700 staff took retirement, early retirement, deferred resignation buyouts or “fork in the road” departures…
Donald Trump signed an executive order yesterday establishing a “religious liberty commission” at the Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate and present strategies to eliminate “threats to domestic religious liberty.” During his comments on the order, Trump said that he doesn’t know if there’s a separation of church and state and that we should “forget about that for one time.”
