Lawyers for Donald Trump are asking a New York judge to lift a gag order on the former president ahead of a scheduled debate with President Joe Biden.
Trump attorneys Todd Blanche and Emil Bove wrote to Judge Juan Merchan Tuesday and asked him to remove the order. Merchan blocked Trump from speaking freely and publicly about witnesses, prosecutors, and others before Trump&#8217;s trial concluded last week.
The attorneys argued that since the trial concluded, there is no longer a good reason for “continued restrictions on the First Amendment rights of President Trump,” according to <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2024/06/04/trump-trial-judge-gag-order-00161641">POLITICO</a>. Trump needs flexibility to respond to public statements from his campaign opponent, President Joe Biden, and trial witnesses, attorney Michael Cohen, and porn actress Stormy Daniels, the attorneys argued.
With the first presidential debate scheduled for June 27, Trump must also be able to address the case, the verdict, and its consequences without being stifled by the gag order, the attorneys’ letter said.
“The defense does not concede that there was ever a valid basis for the gag order and reserves the right to challenge the irreparable First Amendment harms caused by the order,” Trump’s attorneys wrote in the letter, according to <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-gag-order-new-york-trial-hush-money/">CBS News</a>.
Blanche has previously stated that he understood the gag order to expire at the end of the trial, which concluded last week with a Manhattan jury finding Trump guilty on 34 felony accounts over hush money payments to Daniels in 2016. Trump has continued to speak in public as if the gag order is still in effect, however, as Blanche said, he would go to Merchan for clarification.
“It’s a little bit of the theater of the absurd at this point, right? Michael Cohen is no longer a witness in this trial,” Blanche <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2024/06/04/trump-trial-judge-gag-order-00161641">said</a>. “The trial is over. The same thing with all the other witnesses. So, we’ll see. I don’t mean that in any way as being disrespectful of the judge and the process. I just want to be careful and understand when it no longer applies.”

Merchan imposed the gag order on Trump on March 26. Since then, the New York judge has charged Trump with violating it 10 times and fined the former president $10,000. Merchan also threatened Trump with jail time if he continued to make statements that Merchan found to be in violation of his order.
Trump is scheduled to be <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/judge-sets-trump-sentencing-date-four-days-before-gop-convention">sentenced</a> in the case on July 11, just four days before the GOP convention.

Trump Attorneys Ask Judge To Lift Gag Order Ahead Of Presidential Debate

Lee Zeldin, the head of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), got into heated exchanges with Senate Democrats on Wednesday over his efforts to save taxpayer dollars at the agency.
Zeldin testified in front of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee on Wednesday and clashed with Democrats on the committee over his efforts to cut waste, fraud, and abuse.
Rhode Island Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse argued with Zeldin about cuts to the agency. Whitehouse along with other Democratic senators accused the administrator of lying about cuts constituting waste, fraud, or abuse.
A frustrated Zeldin eventually told the senator that the Trump administration is “not going to waste dollars just because you insist on EPA lighting taxpayer dollars on fire.”
“The American taxpayers, they put President Trump in office because of people like you. They have Republicans in charge of the House and Senate because of people like you, because you don&#8217;t care about 99% of this story,” Zeldin said. “You don&#8217;t want me to go through the list of all the evidence of waste and abuse. You don’t care about conflicts of interest. You don’t care about unqualified recipients.”

Sen. Ed Markey of Massachusetts repeatedly asked Zeldin to provide a list of “waste, fraud, and abuse,” but interrupted the administrator before he could run through a list of what his staff had found.
“Are you willing to admit here today, Mr. Administrator, that you don&#8217;t have any evidence of waste, fraud, and abuse?” Markey asked.
Zeldin repeatedly said he would be “happy to go through the list.” But Zeldin failed to get more than a few words into his list of waste, fraud, and abuse before the Massachusetts Democrat was “reclaiming” time and talking over the administrator.
“You want to declare there&#8217;s no evidence, but you don&#8217;t want me to go through the list,” Zeldin said.
Markey’s time expired before Zeldin could meaningfully discuss the cuts he has made to the Environmental Protection Agency.
“Never anything but malarkey from the mouth of Ed Markey. The American public is DONE with this double talk, dishonest hackery from these Congressional Democrats,” Zeldin posted on X.

In a back-and-forth with California Sen. Adam Schiff, Zeldin took issue with the senator’s characterization of his leadership at the EPA and called Schiff “an aspiring fiction writer.”
“With that wind-up, by the way, I understand you&#8217;re an aspiring fiction writer. I see why,” said Zeldin.
Schiff responded: “Well, I understand your view that you can cut half of the agency and it won&#8217;t affect people&#8217;s health or their water or their air. That, to me, is a big fiction, Mr. Zeldin.”
Schiff’s time expired as he continued to lecture Zeldin. The agency administrator shot back at Schiff later on X: “Aspiring fiction writer @SenAdamSchiff got sad today that I called out a bunch more of his lies. The next time he says something truthful will be the first.”

Zeldin Torches Democrats Over EPA Reforms: ‘You Don’t Care About 99% Of This Story’

Prosecutors have charged Elias Rodriguez with federal and local counts related to a terror attack in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday evening.
Rodriguez, 31, allegedly shot and killed Israeli Yaron Lischinsky, 30, and American Sarah Lynn Milgrim, 26, outside an event for Jewish professionals at the Capital Jewish Museum. The victims were soon to be engaged and were members of the Israeli Embassy staff.
The suspect will face three federal counts: murder of foreign officials, causing the death of a person through the use of a firearm, and discharge of a firearm during a crime of violence. He has also been charged with two counts of first degree murder, according to an FBI affidavit.
Rodriguez admitted to killing the young couple to police, according to the FBI.
“[Rodriguez] spontaneously stated on scene to MPD, ‘I did it for Palestine, I did it for Gaza, I am unarmed.’ [Rodriguez] was holding a red scarf identified by one witness as a ‘Kaffiyeh.’ As MPD officers were escorting [Rodriguez] from the Museum, he shouted ‘Free Palestine,’” the affidavit says.
Rodriguez walked past the couple and several others before turning around, pulling a gun from his waistband, and shooting Lischinsky and Milgrim in their backs, the affidavit says. Milgrim attempted to crawl away before she was shot several more times.
“Once the decedents fell to the ground, [Rodriguez] is captured on the video advancing closer to the decedents, leaning over with them with his arm extended, and firing several more times. As [Milgrim] attempted to crawl away from [Rodriguez], he followed behind her and fired again. After a brief moment, [Rodriguez] appeared to reload his firearm. At the same time, [Milgrim] sat up. Once he reloaded, [Rodriguez] fired several times at [Milgrim],” the affidavit says.

Interim U.S. Attorney for the District of Washington Jeanine Pirro <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/video/6373255823112" target="_blank" rel="noopener">condemned</a> the shooting as a “horrific crime” and said that more charges against Rodriguez may be coming.
“Violence against anyone based on their religion is an act of cowardice. It is not the act of a hero. It is the kind of case that we will vigorously pursue,” Pirro said at a Thursday press conference. “Antisemitism will not be tolerated, especially in the nation’s capital. We are going to continue to investigate this as a hate crime and a crime of terrorism and we will add additional charges as the evidence warrants.”

Charges Revealed In D.C. Terror Attack; Shooter ‘Did It For Palestine,’ FBI Says

The Trump administration revoked Harvard’s ability to enroll foreign students on Thursday as the government and elite university feud over antisemetic incidents on campus.
The Department of Homeland Security notified the university in a letter that its participation in the Student and Exchange Visitor Program had been revoked. The move against the university’s foreign exchange program came after days of negotiations over a government request for Harvard records, according to <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/22/us/politics/trump-harvard-international-students.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The New York Times</a>.
“This administration is holding Harvard accountable for fostering violence, antisemitism, and coordinating with the Chinese Communist Party on its campus,” Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said in a post on X. “It is a privilege, not a right, for universities to enroll foreign students and benefit from their higher tuition payments to help pad their multibillion-dollar endowments. Harvard had plenty of opportunity to do the right thing. It refused.”
“They have lost their Student and Exchange Visitor Program certification as a result of their failure to adhere to the law,” she continued. “Let this serve as a warning to all universities and academic institutions across the country.”

The letter bluntly lists the infractions that the Trump administration says Harvard has committed to lose its certification to receive foreign students.
“As a result of your refusal to comply with multiple requests to provide the Department of Homeland Security pertinent information while perpetuating an unsafe campus environment that is hostile to Jewish students, promotes pro-Hamas sympathies, and employs racist ‘diversity, equity, and inclusion’ policies, you have lost this privilege,” the letter says.
Last month, Noem <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2025/04/17/us/harvard-letter-signed.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">requested</a> information from Harvard on foreign students. The administration asked for information that the university has that shows if any student with a visa committed “illegal activity” or “dangerous or violent activity” and whether or not that activity took place on campus, according to a letter from Noem to Harvard.
Homeland Security also requested information on what disciplinary action Harvard has taken “as a result of [visa holders] making threats to other students or populations or participating in protests.”
Harvard rebuffed the requests despite warnings from the Trump administration that its certification to accept foreign students could be revoked. The Trump administration has previously stripped billions in taxpayer-funded grants to the university over its handling of antisemitism on campus.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio <a href="https://time.com/7287253/rubio-state-department-visas-revoked/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> in Senate testimony this week that the Trump administration has likely revoked thousands of visas from foreign students who have disrupted campus or expressed solidarity with terror groups.
“I don&#8217;t know the latest count, but we probably have more to do,” said Rubio. “We&#8217;re going to continue to revoke the visas of people who are here as guests and are disrupting our higher education facilities.”

Trump’s Latest Barb In War With Harvard: No More Foreign Students

Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota dismissed a reporter on Thursday after she was asked to comment on what FBI officials are calling a terror attack in Washington, D.C.
A gunman shot and killed Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Lynn Milgrim, both members of the Israeli Embassy staff, on Wednesday evening outside the Capital Jewish Museum. Lischinsky and Milgrim, who were soon to be engaged, were at the museum to attend a Jewish conference of the American Jewish Committee.
“I’m going to go for now,” Omar said after being approached outside the Capitol Building by a reporter asking about the killings.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt condemned Omar&#8217;s reaction to the attack during a press briefing on Thursday.
&#8220;It&#8217;s despicable and, frankly, we have seen a rise in antisemitic protests, of pro-Hamas protests, of terrorist sympathizers.

Omar condemned the violence in a <a href="https://x.com/IlhanMN/status/1925586718482149519" target="_blank" rel="noopener">post</a> on X: “I am appalled by the deadly shooting at the Capital Jewish Museum last night.

Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa&#8217;ar identified the victims. Sa’ar called the tragedy “a horrific terrorist attack,” according to <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/US/2-shot-fbi-field-office-washington-dc/story?id=122059162" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ABC News</a>.
“This is the direct result of toxic anti-Semitic incitement against Israel and Jews around the world that has been going on since the October 7th massacre,” Sa’ar said. “I have been worried for the past few months that something like this would happen. And it did.”
Omar has been embroiled in controversy over comments regarding terrorism before. In 2021, she earned a rebuke from then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) for appearing to equate the United States and Israel with terror groups.

I asked Secretary Blinken where people are supposed to go for justice.”
Pelosi <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/jun/10/ilhan-omar-democrats-harassment-silencing-israel-hamas-taliban" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> Omar was “drawing false equivalencies.”
“Drawing false equivalencies between democracies like the US and Israel and groups that engage in terrorism like Hamas and the Taliban foments prejudice and undermines progress toward a future of peace and security for all,” Pelosi said in a joint statement with other Democratic leaders.
In March 2019, Omar spoke at a Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) banquet and referred to the 9/11 terror attack as “some people did something.”
“Here’s the truth,” <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/omar-defends-comments-after-criticism-9-11-mourner-n1054666" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> Omar. “For far too long we have lived with the discomfort of being a second-class citizen and, frankly, I’m tired of it, and every single Muslim in this country should be tired of it. CAIR was founded after 9/11 because they recognized that some people did something and that all of us were starting to lose access to our civil liberties.” CAIR was <a href="https://www.cair.com/about_cair/cair-at-a-glance/">founded</a> in 1994, not in response to 9/11, contrary to Omar&#8217;s claims. 
At the time, Nicholas Haros Jr., who lost his mother on 9/11, took offense to Omar’s characterization.
“Today I am here to respond to you, exactly who did what to whom,” said Haros. “We know who and what was done, there&#8217;s no uncertainty about that.”

‘I’m Going To Go For Now’: Ilhan Omar Blows Off Questions On D.C. Terror Attack

The Trump administration is cracking down on blue state abuses of federal environmental legislation that impedes the White House&#8217;s push for American energy dominance.
The Environmental Protection Agency plans to issue a memo on Thursday clarifying the authority of state and tribal governments under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act. In recent years, states like New York and Washington have invoked that section to kill major fossil fuel projects, despite those states’ high energy prices.
“Under the last Administration, certain states attempted to leverage the Clean Water Act to undercut projects that would boost national and regional development and unleash American energy resources,” EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin said in a statement. “With this memorandum, EPA is reinforcing the limits on Clean Water Act section 401 certification to support energy, critical mineral, and infrastructure projects that are key to economic growth and Power the Great American Comeback.”
Under Section 401, state and tribal governments may <a href="https://www.epa.gov/cwa-401/overview-cwa-section-401-certification" target="_blank" rel="noopener">block</a> “any activity that may result in any discharge into waters of the United States,” according to the EPA’s website. The law was designed to give local officials authority to step in if federally-permitted activities threatened water quality.
In 2020, the Trump EPA restricted the use of Section 401 authority. The move roiled blue states, and a coalition of 19 attorneys general joined together to <a href="https://www.mass.gov/news/ag-healey-sues-trump-administration-over-illegal-attack-on-clean-water-act" target="_blank" rel="noopener">sue</a> the administration over the rule change. The Biden administration <a href="https://www.instituteforenergyresearch.org/regulation/epa-reverses-another-trump-administration-rule/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reversed</a> the Trump rules in 2022.
Now, the Trump administration is reinstating its 2020 guidance in an effort to stop state-level Democrats from using the law to block key fossil fuel projects, such as pipelines and coal shipping terminals.
According to the Trump administration, Democrats have expanded use of the rule beyond its statutory role. In 2017, several states <a href="https://dailycaller.com/2018/08/16/coal-crow-tribe-washington-regulations/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">blocked</a> construction of a series of massive coal export terminals, the Millennium Bulk Terminals, in southwestern Washington.
In a <a href="https://ecology.wa.gov/getattachment/8349469b-a94f-492b-acca-d8277e1ad237/MBTL-Denial.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">letter</a> denying the project approval, Washington State officials said they lacked “reasonable assurance” under Section 401 that mitigation efforts would offset damage done to wetlands and waterways. State officials also cited the State Environmental Policy Act to claim “diesel emissions” from trains, “adverse impacts to vehicle traffic,” and “[t]rain-related noise levels” were among other reasons why the project should be killed.
Former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo (D), who is currently running for mayor of New York City, blocked multiple pipeline projects during his tenure using Section 401. Cuomo blocked the Northern Access Pipeline in 2017, the Northeast Supply Enhancement Pipeline in 2018, and the Constitution Pipeline in 2019.
While natural gas pipeline projects were being blocked, New York has <a href="https://www.naturalgasintel.com/news/thousands-awaiting-natural-gas-service-in-new-york-amid-squeezed-supplies/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">suffered</a> under threats of shortages because of squeezed pipeline capacity. In January, the North American Electric Reliability Corp. <a href="https://www.nerc.com/news/Pages/Statement-on-NPCC-Northeast-GasElectric-System-Study.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> New York’s energy infrastructure is under “severe threats to reliability” because of its lack of extra pipeline capacity in the event of severe weather.
New York Governor Kathy Hochul (D) continued Cuomo’s stance against natural gas pipelines, blocking the Northern Access Pipeline again in 2024 after it had received approval from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. While the state’s top Democrats have continued to kill pipeline projects, New York energy prices have remained some of the <a href="https://www.electricchoice.com/electricity-prices-by-state/#:~:text=The%20average%20electric%20rate%20across,to%2042.34%20cents%20per%20kWh." target="_blank" rel="noopener">highest</a> in the country.

EXCLUSIVE: Trump EPA Cracks Down On Blue State Threats To American Energy Dominance

The Israeli military has likely killed the leader of Hamas in Gaza, Mohammed Sinwar, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said at a press conference on Wednesday.
Sinwar took over leadership of the terror group in Gaza after Israel killed his brother, Yahya Sinwar, in October. Mohammed is <a href="https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/408532" target="_blank" rel="noopener">believed</a> to have been killed in one of hundreds of airstrikes that Israel’s air force carried out in Gaza over the weekend, according to the Israel National News. 
⁠”We eliminated tens of thousands of terrorists,” said Netanyahu, according to <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/International/israels-netanyahu-hamas-leader-mohammed-sinwar-killed/story?id=122044336" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ABC News</a>. “We eliminated the leaders of the murderers Deif, Haniyeh, Yahya Sinwar and it appears we also eliminated Mohammed Sinwar,” he said, referencing other top targets in the terror group.
“Our forces are seizing more and more territory in Gaza. At the end of the move, all areas of the Strip will be under Israeli security control,” he continued. “I am ready to end the war on clear terms that will ensure Israel&#8217;s security – all the hostages returned home, Hamas lays down its weapons, its leadership is overthrown, Gaza is completely demilitarized and the Trump plan is implemented.”
“Anyone who calls on us to stop the war before these goals are achieved is calling on us to leave Hamas in power,” he said.
Israel has launched a new military operation, “Operation Gideon’s Chariots.” The Israeli military said it struck over 670 Hamas targets in Gaza over the weekend, eliminating weapon storages and underground Hamas infrastructure, as well as killing dozens of terrorists.
Defense Minister Israel Katz <a href="https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/408532" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told</a> lawmakers in the Knesset on Sunday that, at the time, evidence suggested that Sinwar was killed alongside ten aides and Mohammed Shabana, the commander of Hamas&#8217;s Rafah Brigade. 
Israeli officials said the latest military operation has seemingly forced Hamas back to the negotiating table, though talks so far have been short of a “breakthrough.”
&#8220;There are intense talks in Doha, but there is no breakthrough. We are much more optimistic than we were last week, but it is unclear if there will be a deal,” an Israeli official told <a href="https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/408546" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the Israel National News</a> on Sunday.
