NOTUS - Treasonous. Corrupt. That’s how Bruce Springsteen described Donald Trump last night at his sold-out tour finale at Nationals Park in D.C., before belting out the stratospheric hit “War” first made popular as an anti-war protest song by Black singer and songwriter Edwin Starr. Later, he called the war with Iran “incompetent, unwise and illegal.”
“Let ’em hear you at the fucking White House,” Springsteen, coined “the Boss” by his fans, said as he led an “ICE out now” chant almost four miles away from 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. for America’s boss.
HedlineUSA - A group of 35 little-known former federal judges gained national attention Wednesday after filing a petition urging a federal court to reopen President Donald Trump’s case against the IRS — seemingly in a bid to cancel a $1.776 billion settlement fund.
The now-settled lawsuit paved the way for the creation of a $1.776 billion restitution fund intended for victims of federal government weaponization. Democrats quickly attacked the arrangement, claiming without evidence that the fund would primarily benefit Trump allies.
The former federal judges echoed those attacks in their filing, purporting that Trump and his administration deceived the court and that the fund would ultimately be administered by a commission “effectively controlled” by Trump.
Washington Post - Trump administration officials have pressed the office responsible for printing the nation’s money to design a $250 bill featuring the president’s portrait, according to four current and former employees, in what would be the first appearance of a living person on U.S. currency in more than 150 years.
Carroll, a former magazine writer, accused Trump of sexually assaulting her in a New York department store in the mid-1990s. She was awarded $5 million in damages in 2023 by a jury that found Trump liable for sexually abusing her. The following year, Carroll won an $83 million civil judgment in a defamation case. Trump has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing and said he didn’t even know Carroll. The president is seeking Supreme Court intervention in both cases. The White House referred questions about the probe to the DOJ...The DOJ probe is the latest move by the Trump administration to target the president’s perceived political foes, including multiple attempts by the DOJ to prosecute former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James.
