Trump speaks to CBS’s Tony Doukopil in Detroit, Michigan
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt sternly warned a CBS crew last week that Trump would sue the network if it did not air a recent interview in its entirety, unedited.  
“We’ll sue your ass off,” she told them.
While President Trump was visiting Detroit, Michigan, to tour a Ford plant and deliver remarks to the Detroit Economic Club on Tuesday, he sat for a 13-minute interview with CBS anchor Tony Doukoupil, during which the President trolled Doukoupil, telling him he’d be out of a job if Kamala Harris won in 2024.
“If she got in, you probably wouldn’t have a job right now,” Trump said while explaining that he inherited a dead country and turned it into the “hottest country in the world.” “You wouldn’t have this job, you wouldn’t have this job, certainly whatever the hell they’re paying you,” he continued. “We would be Venezuela on steroids.”

After the interview, Leavitt reportedly approached the CBS team and Doukoupil with a message from the President.
“He said, ‘Make sure you guys don’t cut the tape, make sure the interview is out in full,’” Leavitt told them, to which Doukoupil replied, “Yeah, we’re doing it, yeah,” according to a side conversation caught on tape and obtained by the New York Times.
Leavitt fired back, “He said, ‘If it’s not out in full, we’ll sue your ass off,’” which was apparently not taken too seriously at first, with some members of the team thinking it was a joke.
Executive producer of CBS Evening News, Kim Harvey, responded to the threat, telling Leavitt, “Oh, great, OK!” and Doukoupil chimed in, humorously saying, “He always says that!”
But according to the report, Leavitt did not laugh.
CBS later said in a statement, “The moment we booked this interview, we made the independent decision to air it unedited and in its entirety.”
Leavitt told the New York Times, “The American people deserve to watch President Trump’s full interviews, unedited, no cuts. And guess what? The interview ran in full.”
Trump has sued several media organizations since taking office, including CBS’s former parent company, Paramount, last year, over its edited 60 Minutes interview with Kamala Harris. After the suit was settled, Paramount was sold to David Ellison’s Skydance.

Joe Allen was on War Room with Steve Bannon to discuss the Overwatch Act, which was introduced by Rep Brian Mast, Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee. The act provides Congressional oversight, and helps prevent hostile regimes from acquiring AI-enabled weapons.
Bannon warned against the CCP and said they are an enemy of the US. He clearly stated that there should be no help in any form when it comes to AI to an adversary of that caliber.
“The Chinese Communist Party is a sworn enemy of the United States,” Bannon said.
“Anything that helps the Chinese Communist Party build an ecosystem with chips, with training, with students, with money, with equity and debt. Anything that helps them with AI at all is bad, and must be stopped,” Bannon warned.
Bannon made a comparison to the Cold War explaining that the US did not help the Soviets during the late 50s into the early 60s.
“We did not help the Soviets during the height of the Cold War in the late 50s and early 60s. Spies gave them the atomic bomb, and spies gave them the hydrogen bomb,” Bannon said.
“We were not in the business of having American industry be in business with them and partners with them, and American capital, venture capital, private equity, anything, to help them finance it,” Bannon explained.
Allen explained what the Overwatch Act would involve, citing the main ideas of what it intends to do.
“Steve, the controversy surrounds the Overwatch Act. The Overwatch Act is put forward by House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Brian Mast of Florida,” Allen said.
“The bill itself basically requires the Commerce Secretary, so that would presently be Howard Lutnick, to produce a national security strategy on chip exports. That would include the AI capabilities of adversaries that would include the indigenous chip production capacity of foreign adversaries,” Allen explained.
“Any US company that wants to export to an adversary would have to submit an application to the Commerce Secretary or the Commerce Department, which would then go to Congress, and Congress would then review the application,” Allen said.
“If it was determined that the chip exports would give an advantage to a foreign adversary, they specifically name China, North Korea, Venezuela, so on and so forth, then Congress would have the power to veto the export, to block the export,” Allen continued.
“The opposition is largely based on the fear that Nvidia won’t be able to expand their market even further into China,” Allen said.

Pro-Trump independent journalist Nick Sortor was robbed of a $1,000 camera by an apparent Somali woman while filming in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on Sunday. 
Video from the incident shows a masked woman ripping the camera out of Sortor’s hand as he’s behind the wheel of his vehicle. He then jumps out of the car and chases his robber to their vehicle, before they sped off with him holding onto the door handle.
Sortor said he was dragged down the street after his hand got stuck in the car’s door handle.
“They just stole my camera,” he said after the car escaped. A man then approached him, screaming, “That’s what the f*ck you wanted, right? That’s what the f*ck you wanted, right?”
The man continued, following Sortor, screaming, “Man, listen, motherf*cker, you better get the f*ck up out of here. F*cking coward. Motherf*cker, you a coward b*tch.”
Several other leftists surrounded him and Cam Higby with their phones out, screaming at and berating them.
Sortor wrote on X,

They then DRAGGED ME DOWN THE STREET as my hand got trapped in their door handle
NOBODY bothered helping
DHS MUST RAID THIS PLACE!

This comes after Sortor was attacked last week while covering a leftist mob rioting outside an ICE facility in Minneapolis.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Sortor was also surrounded by rioters in his vehicle, which was vandalized with spray paint as leftist thugs bashed his windows in with frozen water bottles and threatened to kill him. This prompted Sortor to speed off, driving through the crowd.
“I was forced to drive away to save our lives, repeatedly warning those standing in front to GET OUT OF THE WAY,” he said in an X post. “They didn’t listen, so I had no choice but to go anyway.”
Police later detained him after rioters reported that he and colleague Cam Higby had guns.

Washed-up rocker Bruce Springsteen has launched a scathing attack on President Trump’s mass deportation agenda.
During a performance Saturday night at the Light of Day festival in New Jersey, Springsteen dedicated one of his songs to Renee Good, the woman who was killed after trying to run over an ICE agent while blocking law enforcement operations in Minneapolis.

There are now so many videos showing what happened in Minneapolis and they debunk every single leftist narrative about this shooting:

Springsteen declared:

So as we gather tonight in this beautiful display of love and care and thoughtfulness and community.
If you believe in democracy, in liberty. If you believe that truth still matters, and that it’s worth speaking out, and it’s worth fighting for. If you believe in the power of the law and that no one stands above it.
If you stand against heavily armed masked federal troops invading American cities, and using Gestapo tactics against our fellow citizens.
If you believe you don’t deserve to be murdered for exercising your American right to protest … then send a message to this President.
As the mayor of that city has said, ICE should get the fuck out of Minneapolis.
So this one is for you, and the memory of the mother of three and American citizen Renee Good.

Watch the clip below:

In an interview with the New York Times back in June, Springsteen described Trump’s presidency “an American tragedy.”
”I think that it was the combination of the deindustrialization of the country and then the incredible increase in wealth disparity that left so many people behind. It was ripe for a demagogue.”
“And while I can’t believe it was this moron that came along, he fit the bill for some people.”
Last November, a movie about Springsteen’s life turned out to be a box office dud.
The biopic, which explored his personal life and musical career, lost money against its $55 million budget.

A radical leftist thug in Minneapolis attacked a CBS reporter on Sunday while protesting outside the ICE detention facility in an incident that was captured by independent journalists on the ground in Minnesota. 
It is currently unclear what led up to the incident, but these people are clearly angry and unwell.
A large crowd formed outside the Whipple federal building, where ICE has a facility, and they were seen harassing law enforcement.
Via Border Hawk News:

Bizarrely, a confrontation ensued between one of the anti-ICE radicals and a CBS reporter.
“We’re just standing here,” the reporter told the protesters who were heckling them and screaming in their faces.
The conspiracy theorists appeared to think that the CBS reporters were somehow in on ICE operations or that they weren’t doing enough to support them.  Or, perhaps because Larry Ellison purchased CBS and the network is now viewed as more friendly to Trump, they were accusing the reporter of being pro-Trump.
Despite the ownership change, CBS is still not a Trump-friendly network by any means!
Eventually, a man shoved the reporter, and others stepped in to intervene.
Disgraced ex-CNN anchor Don Lemon, during an apparent break from joining in on the riots and illegally storming a Minneapolis church service, then emerged to quell the violent radicals,  telling one man, “They’re just doing their jobs.”
The man in a green coat responded, “But every time they do it, Don, they’re getting ready to pull some sh*t.”
“I understand your frustration. You’re free to yell at whoever you want to yell at,” Lemon told him. “You shouldn’t antagonize them. It’s not them. These guys have been working probably for CBS for their entire lives, and because over the month or two, it’s changed, that has nothing to do with them.”

Missouri Attorney General Keith Ellison fist bumps Don Lemon
Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison on Sunday described Renee Good’s death after she tried to kill an ICE agent as “beautiful” and noble during an interview with disgraced ex-CNN anchor Don Lemon. 
During his pilgrimage to Minnesota to support anti-ICE riots and report on the violent but peaceful protests, Lemon took a moment to join Ellison in glorifying a deranged leftist woman who attempted to murder a law enforcement officer.
At the scene of Renee Good’s violent assault on the agent, Ellison told Lemon that Good “lost her life trying to be vigilant on behalf of the most vulnerable members of our community.” He continued, “I think that that is beautiful.”
Lemon awkwardly responded with affirmation, “As we say in this country, right? ‘We are in pursuit of a more perfect union.’”
“A more perfect union,” Ellison agreed before offering his fist to Lemon.

Don Lemon also joined the radical left mob earlier.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Lemon joined radical leftist anti-ICE activists, who stormed Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota, on Sunday and live-streamed the disruption of the church service and harassment of Christians.
Apparently, the pastor worked for ICE, and the mob felt it appropriate to shut down the church.
“This is what the First Amendment is about, the freedom to protest,” Don Lemon said. “I’m sure people here don’t like it, but protests are not comfortable.”
Now, the Department of Justice is looking into him for “interfering with Christian worshippers.”

Chega’s Andre Ventura is one of the frontrunners.
‘Chega’ (‘Enough’) is Portugal’s answer to the Globalist policies that are destroying their country.
Six years after it was founded, a rightwing party is poised to rise to power in today’s presidential election in Portugal.
No less than 11 candidates are involved in the election, making it likely that the two top candidates will have to compete to compete in a runoff ballot next month in the likely event that no one gets over 50% of the vote.
‘Portugal needs a cleaning’: a Chega political billboard.
Associated Press reported:
“Almost 11 million people are eligible to vote in the election, with most results expected late in the day. The winner will replace President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa, who has served the limit of two five-year terms.
Among the front-runners, according to recent opinion polls, are André Ventura, the leader of the populist Chega (Enough) party. Chega’s surge in public support made it the second-largest party in Portugal’s parliament last year.”

Unsurprisingly, one of Ventura’s main targets has been unchecked mass immigration.
‘Portugal is ours’, he says.
“During the election campaign, Ventura put up billboards across the country saying, ‘This isn’t Bangladesh’ and ‘Immigrants shouldn’t be allowed to live on welfare’.”

UPDATE: While the Socialist candidate did get the first place, Ventura is still favorite. See the results:
Seguro (Socialist Party | Center-Left) – 30%
Ventura (Chega | Right) – 26.75%
Marques Mendes (PSD | Center-right): 14.26%
Cotrim (Liberal Initiative | Center-right): 12.36%
As we can see, Ventura came less than four points behind Seguro, but there are other two rightwing candidates with a combined vote total of almost 27% – and it’s widely expected that Chega will inherit most of these.

Four suspected MS-13 gang members are facing murder charges in Maryland after killing a 14-year-old boy from Washington, DC.
The corpse of Jefferson Amaya-Ayala was discovered with multiple injuries in what the medical examiner ruled as a homicide on November 3, 2025, at Indian Creek Stream Valley Park in College Park, Maryland, months after he was last seen in Washington, DC, on August 2, 2025.
The Prince George’s County Police Department said in a press release on Saturday that they believe Ayala was lured to the park and murdered on August 2.
Per ABC 7, “Investigators disclosed that Amaya-Ayala knew at least one of the suspects, and 7News confirmed through a source that the crime is linked to the MS-13 gang.”
Police identified the suspects as 18-year-old Jose Merlos-Majano, 21-year-old Alan Josai Garcia-Padilla, and 19-year-old William Cuellar Gutierrez.
A fourth suspect from Hyattsville, Maryland, remains unidentified due to his age.
“All four suspects are in custody and charged with the murder of 14-year-old Jefferson Amaya-Ayala of Washington, DC,” the release states.
Merlos-Majano is in custody in the District, awaiting extradition to Prince George’s County, and Garcia-Padilla is in Alexandria, Virginia, also pending extradition, police say. The other two are in Prince George’s County custody.
It is unclear whether or not the suspects are in the United States legally.
