Karoline Leavitt Branded ‘Liar’ as She Shares ‘Delusional’ Trump Approval Poll

By AOL. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt faced accusations of dishonesty after posting about Donald Trump’s approval ratings on social media.

Recent months have brought unfavorable polling numbers for President Trump, with multiple surveys indicating his approval has dropped to historic lows. Earlier this week, even Fox News, a network typically favorable to the 80-year-old, broadcast a segment highlighting widespread American dissatisfaction with Trump’s performance.

The Fox News survey, conducted among 1,002 registered voters, revealed that 68% of Americans disapproved of his performance, with just 31% approving. The news follows Donald Trump giving a brutal nickname to a Fox News host after turning on him.

A separate CNN poll found that the US electorate “disapproved of him a month ago and they still disapprove of him.”

This follows predictions from an analyst who forecasted a specific date Trump might resign from the presidency due to a “lethal” challenge. (Read more from “Karoline Leavitt Branded ‘Liar’ as She Shares ‘Delusional’ Trump Approval Poll” HERE)

Ahead of midterms, Trump approval hits new low in latest polls

By USA Today. As the 2026 midterm elections approach, the economy and U.S. involvement in Iran continue to hit President Donald Trump hard when it comes to his approval rating.

According to a recent American Research Group poll, just 30% of Americans approve of the president’s job performance, a new low for Trump.

The survey, conducted June 16–20 among 1,100 respondents (plus or minus 3 percentage points), found 66% disapprove of Trump, the highest disapproval and lowest approval ever recorded by the pollster during either of his presidencies.

Among those who disapprove of Trump, economic pessimism is widespread: 82% say they expect conditions to worsen over the next year, according to the poll.

White House spokesperson Davis Ingle dismissed the findings in a statement to USA TODAY, pointing instead to Trump’s 2024 reelection victory as the “ultimate poll.” (Read more from “Ahead of midterms, Trump approval hits new low in latest polls” HERE)

Trump Reports More than $1 Billion in Crypto Income — Plus Millions in New Foreign Deals

President Trump reported a financial windfall in annual disclosure documents, including more than $1 billion in cryptocurrency income and tens of millions from new foreign real estate deals since re-entering the White House.

Trump reaped a staggering $635 million from sales of his free-floating $Trump meme coin — launched three days before he took office last January — via his company CIC Digital LLC, according to his 2025 disclosures released Tuesday.

The documents list more than $236 million in additional income from selling the WLFI cryptocurrency tokens through World Liberty Financial, the company founded by Trump, special envoy Steve Witkoff and their sons in 2024.

The files list $65.6 million from a sale of equity in World Liberty — a likely reference to the reported sale of part of the company last January to companies associated with United Arab Emirates national security adviser Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed al-Nahyan.

Trump reported a further $205 million in proceeds from stablecoin investments, including sales of holdings in Stablecoin Holdco, which is associated with World Liberty and its issuance of the USD1 stablecoin.

REPORT: Serial Killer’s Therapist Allegedly Practiced For Years Without A License, Faces Felony Charges

A serial killer’s therapist reportedly practiced clinical social work in New York for years without a license and faces felony charges, prosecutors said.

Alison Winter, serial killer Rex Heuermann’s therapist, received $60,000 in reimbursement payments for insurance claims from 2018 to 2024 without having a clinical social work license, Newsday reported, citing prosecutors. Over $50,000 was allegedly billed via Cigna. The insurance company reportedly requires masters-level clinicians who work independently to have a state license in order to be part of their network. Winter also obtained reimbursement payments via UnitedHealthcare and Medicare, according to court documents.

Winter obtained a Master’s Degree in Social Work from Adelphi University in 1999, the school told Newsday. However, a verification search of the New York State Education Department’s Office of the Professions does not generate a license for Winter under the Master Social Worker category.

Prosecutors charged Winter with grand larceny in the second degree, grand larceny in the third degree, scheme to defraud, and 14 counts of unauthorized practice of a profession, a Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office (SCDAO) spokeswoman told the Daily Caller. She was already facing the felony charges when she heard Heuermann’s confession in which he allegedly admitted to killing eight women, Newsday reported.

Trump Admin Vows Birth Tourism Crackdown After Birthright Citizenship Ruling

The Trump administration met the Supreme Court’s constitutional enshrinement of birthright citizenship with a vow to crack down on foreign birth tourism schemes.

A statement shared by the Department of Justice (DOJ) on Tuesday, hours after the court’s decision, said the department will make the prosecution of these schemes a priority across the country.

The scheme involves expecting women of foreign origin visiting the U.S., where they give birth to what is sometimes referred to as an “anchor baby” due to the child’s automatic citizenship status, which can then be exploited by the child’s family to obtain citizenship or visas.

“Birth tourism schemes exploit our immigration laws and often violate our criminal laws,” the DOJ statement said. “Actors seeking to exploit loopholes to obtain automatic citizenship for their children pose a national security threat and will be brought to justice.”

Three of Nine Supremes Believe in ‘Transgender Girls’

Three of the nine justices on the U.S. Supreme Court believe that boys can swap their legal sex to become girls by just saying so.

The endorsement of the revolutionary demands of transgenderism came from Justice Sonia Sotomayor, backed by Justice Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson, who wrote:

[Male] Respondent B. P. J. is a transgender girl who wants to live her life consistent with her gender identity.

The three judges’ acceptance of the so-called “transgender” claim is based on the progressives’ political demand that people they favor can and should be liberated from biological, intellectual, and social constraints that they dislike. In contrast, conservatives believe that civic norms and laws should manage the competitive and unchanging nature of human biology, such as biological differences that would disadvantage nearly all women in mixed-sex sports competitions.

The faith in progressive self-liberation is described in the three judges’ dissent against the court’s majority decision that recognized the legal term “sex” has been based on unchangeable biology:

The term “sex” in Title IX, the Javits Amendment, and the Title IX regulations cannot plausibly be interpreted to refer to anything other than biological sex. The ordinary meaning of the term “sex” at the time of enactment in the early 1970s was biological sex and not gender identity, particularly in the sports context

Ex-Banker Dealt Another Humiliating Legal Blow in JPMorgan ‘Sex Slave’ Lawsuit after Judge’s Demand

Chirayu Rana has finally outed himself in his salacious “sex slave” lawsuit against a JPMorgan bank boss, replacing his “John Doe” moniker for his own legal name after repeated judicial orders, court records show.

Rana was staring down a deadline to correct the lawsuit by the end of last week and use his own name after his motion to proceed anonymously was struck down in a brutal courtroom hearing by Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Dakota Ramseur.

But at the last minute, his attorney Jon Norinsberg tried to wiggle out of the order on a technicality — limiting where Rana’s name would be listed and making it harder to find the case on the antiquated but reliable New York State Courts Electronic Filing website.

Ramseur quickly filed an order the next day slapping down Norinsberg’s request.

Rana, 35, first filed his April lawsuit, which alleged that he was sexually abused by his JP Morgan manager, 37-year-old Lorna Hajdini, anonymously. (Read more from “Ex-Banker Dealt Another Humiliating Legal Blow in JPMorgan ‘Sex Slave’ Lawsuit after Judge’s Demand” HERE)

‘Imposter’ Candidate Can Appear On Ballot Ahead Of Alaska Senate Primary, State Supreme Court Rules

“Decoy Dan” can appear on Alaska’s primary ballot, according to an 11th-hour ruling that saved the campaign of a Senate candidate accused of being a political con man.

On Monday, the Alaska Supreme Court upheld a lower court’s ruling that Daniel J. Sullivan should not have been decertified by the state’s top election official, who found the “Republican” is running merely to “confuse or mislead and to thereby compromise the ballot’s fairness or neutrality.”

Sullivan, who admitted to working with a political strategist who is “a known longtime supporter of Democratic candidates,” is challenging Alaska’s incumbent senator — who happens to also be named Dan Sullivan. He also unsuccessfully sought to use the middle initial “S.” on the ballot, which would have matched Sen. Sullivan’s middle initial. He claimed that was a mistake.

“That you chose the occasion of your declaration of candidacy for U.S. Senate to seek ballot access under a name you have not used in your interactions with the [Election] Division suggests — and in combination with the additional facts I outline in this letter leads me to conclude — that you are seeking to confuse yourself with another candidate in the race, the incumbent Senator Dan Sullivan, rather than distinguish yourself from him,” Alaska Director of Elections Carol Beecher wrote last week in a stinging rebuke.

“Decoy Dan,” as his critics call him, had never been affiliated with Alaska’s GOP. That changed just two days before he filed his declaration of candidacy, the Election Division’s records show. And his campaign website, curiously, looks a lot like the senator’s, Beecher wrote. Beecher noted Dan J. Sullivan’s ties to Amber Lee, “an Alaska Democratic consultant who has previously supported [former Rep. Mary Peltola, D-Alaska],” Fox News reported.

SCOTUS Affirms Birthright Citizenship, Rejects Trump’s Executive Order

The U.S. Supreme Court voted 5-4 on Tuesday to reject President Donald Trump’s reform of the nation’s birthright citizenship policy, which now grants the huge prize of citizenship to nearly all infants born in the United States, even if the parents are illegal migrants or temporary visitors.

The long 194-page Trump v. Barbara decision says Trump’s order violates the 14th Amendment of the Constitution.

The decision was 6 to 3 against Trump, but Justice Brett Kavanaugh argued that Trump and other politicians can change the rule via legislation.

“Citizenship, then and now,” Chief Justice John Roberts wrote for the majority, “was the right to have rights — to freely participate in our political community. The Framers of the Fourteenth Amendment extended that promise to ‘every free-born person in this land.’ We keep that promise today.”

The right applies even to foreign parents who sneak across the United States borders with Canada and Mexico, or who enter as temporary workers or tourists, Roberts insisted. (Read more from “SCOTUS Affirms Birthright Citizenship, Rejects Trump’s Executive Order” HERE)

Trump, Lutnick’s Sons Stand to Gain Big Profits from Billion-Dollar Mining Deal: Report

By New York Post. The sons of President Trump and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick stand to see a big windfall after businesses tied to the families helped secure a $1.6 billion mining deal in Kazakhstan, according to a new report.

After Trump and Lutnick closed a deal for an American company called Kaz Resources to mine one of the world’s largest untapped reserves of tungsten last November, records indicate that firms tied to their sons saw financial gain from the contract, the New York Times reported.

Dominari Securities — which is housed at Trump Tower in New York and partly owned by the president’s two eldest sons, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump — had joined other investors to take a 20% stake in a company related to the project.

At the same time, Cantor Fitzgerald — an investment company controlled by Lutnick’s family and overseen by his sons Brandon and Kyle Lutnick — helped one of the investors working with Dominari raise $210 million in new capital.

The dealings have raised questions about the Trump and Lutnick families’ financial gains under deals struck during the president’s second term. . .

During the negotiations, Lutnick pushed Kazakhstan President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev to give the mining contract to Kaz Resources executive chairman Pini Althaus and his backers, writing in a letter that the Trump administration “fully supports” the company.

Trump Admin Inner Circle Secretly Trash His Sons’ Latest Grift

By The Daily Beast. Donald Trump’s sons’ financial ties to a major mining project backed by their father’s administration have apparently rankled even some within the president’s inner circle. . .

Trump administration officials involved in the deal told The Times, speaking anonymously, that they were disappointed by the involvement of the Trump family—as well as the family of Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick—in projects the government itself is helping to finance.

In September, Lutnick, 64, and Trump, 80, negotiated an agreement with Kazakhstan’s president granting a small U.S. mining company, Kaz Resources, access to Kazakhstan’s tungsten reserves, alongside approval for more than $1 billion in preliminary federal financing applications. . .

Within weeks of the September negotiations, Dominari Securities—a firm based in Trump Tower and partly owned by Don Jr. and Eric—joined with other partners to take a 20 percent stake in the mining project, The Times reports.

Around the same time, Cantor Fitzgerald, the investment firm overseen by the commerce secretary’s sons, Kyle and Brandon Lutnick, helped raise $210 million for one of the lead investors working with Dominari Securities on the deal, a type of transaction that typically generates millions of dollars in fees for the firm.

Trump Must Pony up $5M to E. Jean Carroll after SCOTUS Refuses Prez’s Appeal of Sex Abuse, Defamation Verdict

The Supreme Court on Monday declined to take up President Trump’s appeal of the initial $5 million sexual abuse and defamation verdict that followed a lawsuit by former advice columnist E. Jean Carroll.

Now Trump will have no choice but to pony up the $5 million to the 82-year-old, who has repeatedly claimed that the president sexually assaulted her in a Bergdorf Goodman fitting room during the mid-1990s.

Trump slammed the ruling and vowed to continue the fight against Carroll. A separate case between the two is working its way through the legal system.

“Surprisingly, the Supreme Court declined to ‘review’ a Fake Case brought against me by a woman I never met (Decades old celebrity photo line, standing with her husband, does not count!),” he wrote on Truth Social.

“I will continue the fight against this Weaponization and Lawfare Case against me, including the ridiculous claim of Defamation, with all of my power and strength. This Case is really against the United States of America, and all it stands for, and should never be allowed to happen to another President,” he added.

Trump’s lawyers had argued that, as president, he should not be distracted from his executive duties in order to deal with “decades-old, false allegations.” (Read more from “Trump Must Pony up $5M to E. Jean Carroll after SCOTUS Refuses Prez’s Appeal of Sex Abuse, Defamation Verdict” HERE)
