LOADING ERROR LOADINGA D.C. grand jury declined to indict a man accused of assaulting a federal agent during President Donald Trump’s takeover of policing in Washington, D.C. “[The] officer’s testimony was rejected by the grand jury, presumably after reviewing the body-worn camera video,” the attorney, A.J. Like the grand juries, some judges in federal court have been leery of the cases Pirro’s office has been bringing. One of them, Judge Zia M. Faruqui, chastised the prosecutor’s office for pursuing a gun case built on what he called a blatantly illegal search that violated the Fourth Amendment. AdvertisementDefense attorneys told HuffPost this week they believed in some cases prosecutors were bringing excessive charges just to make Trump’s crime crackdown look more meaningful.

Trump’s Oval Office, though, has been the site of the most striking transformation so far. AdvertisementAn ivy plant that had adorned the Oval Office fireplace for over a half-century was replaced by lifeless objects. At top, five presidents stand in the Oval Office as Barack Obama begins his first term. Other items on the manufacturer’s website appear similar, although not identical, to moldings installed recently in the Oval Office. The staff, she pointed out, is well-practiced in transforming the Oval Office in the late January hours between one president’s departure and the next president’s arrival.

On the contrary, the people that have been installed by Secretary Kennedy are full of ideology and bias that will actually contaminate the science,” Daskalakis said.

Each spring during prom week, firefighters, actors, students and my fellow faculty members enacted this scene on the high school football field. The afternoon was intended to shock some, remind others and beg all to refrain from driving drunk on prom night. I’d like to believe nationwide drunken-driving simulations like the ones we did at my school contributed to those statistics. School boards and politicians attempt to control classroom content through gag orders on positive signage, pronouns, books and language. Teachers know a caring relationship promotes motivation, engagement and positive behavior — and that’s when learning happens.

Former ABC News reporter Terry Moran on Thursday said network news and legacy media companies are “failing the American people,” bowing to “corporate pressure” amid President Donald Trump’s second term. “They have kind of rules of what they can say and what they can’t say, what they can describe and what they can’t describe.

So the pressure’s on, very much so.”Advertisement AdvertisementAdvertisement AdvertisementHuffPost has reached out to Disney and ABC for comment.

But with the same agency now reporting continued drops in crime, his White House is eager to tout data it once derided as untrustworthy. (The White House confirmed to HuffPost it’s using MPD numbers but declined to comment.) It’s not complicated: The White House now likes D.C. crime data because the positive numbers reflect well on the president. “They have to stop issuing false crime numbers,” Trump said Tuesday at the White House. AdvertisementRepublicans in Congress, meanwhile, have continued suggesting the city’s crime data is bogus as they run their own investigation of the matter.

Another horrific shooting at a school, this time in Minneapolis, where two young children were killed and 18 others injured. This is why the news from Minneapolis shook me to my core: the perpetrator at Annunciation Catholic School was reportedly a trans woman. In 2023, when a trans man actually was responsible for a school shooting in Nashville, Tennessee, they seized the opportunity to support their baseless theory. “Today’s evil church school shooter was a trans who was likely groomed and transitioned as a teenager,” Marjorie Taylor Greene posted on X. Data from The Violence Prevention Project shows 97% of mass shootings are committed by men, with just a single trans shooter before the Annunciation attack.

“We have to remember this entire thing happened, this entire story blew up, during the Biden administration,” Vance said during an interview with USA Today. Vance said the Biden administration had four years to release any such information and failed to do so. Q: "Now that you're in power, you say that there is no Epstein client list. That prosecutor, Alex Acosta, would later serve in the Cabinet in the first Trump administration. Despite Vance’s claims, the arrest, death and outrage that followed took place during the first Trump administration – about 18 months before Biden took office.

He questioned why it was necessary for the Trump administration to sue all the judges as a means of challenging the order. Signed by Chief Maryland District Judge George L. Russell III, the order prevents the Trump administration from immediately deporting any immigrants seeking review of their detention in Maryland district court. The department has grown increasingly frustrated by rulings blocking Trump’s agenda, repeatedly accusing federal judges of improperly impeding his powers. AdvertisementAttorneys for the Maryland judges argued the lawsuit was intended to limit the power of the judiciary to review certain immigration proceedings while the Trump administration pursues a mass deportation agenda. The Trump administration later brought Abrego Garcia back to the U.S. and charged him with human smuggling in Tennessee, which his attorneys characterized as an attempt to justify his erroneous deportation.
