The family of a man fatally shot by an ICE officer in Houston is calling for the release of all body camera and surveillance video from the incident.
Federal officials say Lorenzo Salgado Araujo tried to ram an officer with his vehicle after a traffic stop Tuesday morning. His family disputes that account and says they want the public to see the evidence for themselves.
Relatives describe Salgado Araujo as a hardworking father who had lived in the United States for decades and was pursuing legal work authorization. Civil rights groups are also calling for transparency in the investigation.
A federal judge has ruled that E. Jean Carroll can collect the nearly $5.8 million that has been held in escrow since a jury found President Donald Trump liable for sexually abusing and defaming her.
The decision follows the U.S. Supreme Court's refusal to overturn the 2023 civil verdict, allowing the judgment to move forward. Trump's attorneys sought to block the release of the funds but were unsuccessful.
Trump has continued to deny Carroll's allegations, maintains he did not know her, and has argued the case was politically motivated.
President Donald Trump announced that the United States will allow Ukraine to manufacture Patriot air defense systems under license, marking a significant shift in U.S. policy toward Kyiv's defense capabilities.
Speaking at the NATO summit in Turkey, Trump praised alliance members for increasing defense spending and met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Trump said he remains optimistic that a negotiated end to the war in Ukraine is still possible.
NATO leaders also pledged an additional $80 billion in military support for Ukraine as the alliance reaffirmed its commitment to the country's defense.
President Trump's proposed 250-foot triumphal arch in Washington is moving closer to approval.
Staff with the National Capital Planning Commission are recommending preliminary approval for the project, while calling for minor design changes to comply with federal building height rules.
The proposal now goes before the full commission for consideration.
Prosecutors in the Charlie Kirk murder case plan to play edited audio recordings of police interviews with the defendant's roommate during a preliminary hearing in Utah.
Defense attorneys for Tyler Robinson argued the recordings should not be played publicly, saying jurors could interpret the statements as a confession and jeopardize Robinson's right to a fair trial.
Robinson is charged with aggravated murder in the September 2025 killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University. He has not entered a plea, and the hearing will determine whether there is enough evidence for the case to proceed to trial.
The Erin Molan Show | Episode 191
Jackson Hinkle, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Sneako, Zohran Mamdani, Donald Trump, American military recruitment, and Candace Owens’ latest Charlie Kirk conspiracy.
In this episode, I explain why Jackson Hinkle’s appearance at the Ayatollah’s funeral says everything about the sickness of anti-Western influencers, why any public respect shown to Iran’s regime only helps legitimize evil, and why the chants of “Death to America” should remind everyone exactly who the West is dealing with.
I also look at Sneako finally saying the quiet part out loud, what Zohran Mamdani’s rise says about America’s political future, why Trump is calling out communism in the Democratic Party without apology, and why military recruitment under Trump tells a very different story from the Biden years.
And finally, Candace Owens is back with another Charlie Kirk murder conspiracy — and somehow, this one may be even worse than the rest.

In this video, Larry Elder and Brandon Tatum delve into the preliminary hearing of the trial involving the alleged assassination of Charlie Kirk. Brandon Tatum, invited by the Kirk family, shares his observations from attending the hearing. He discusses the strong evidence against the accused, including a confession, video evidence, DNA, and an interaction during a traffic stop. The accused, Tyler Robinson, turned himself in and is accompanied by about 13 supporters in court, who appear to believe in his guilt. Robinson's demeanor is described as indifferent, smirking, and seemingly lacking remorse. The discussion also touches on the death penalty in different states, with a focus on Arizona and Utah, and the emotional toll the trial takes on Erica Kirk, Charlie Kirk's widow.
WASHINGTON, July 8 (Reuters) - Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner of Maine suspended his campaign on Wednesday following a string of controversies, including an accusation of sexual assault, that have plunged one of the most competitive races in the 2026 midterm elections into turmoil.
The suspension by the former U.S. Marine and oysterman, in a video posted on social media, is likely to complicate Democrats' efforts to win control of the Senate in the November 3 elections. Republicans currently hold a 53-47 majority.
The race in Maine, considered one of the Democrats' best pickup opportunities, will now focus on how the Democrats go about choosing a replacement candidate to take on incumbent Republican Senator Susan Collins.
Many Democrats had already questioned Platner's fitness for office before Politico reported on Monday that a woman accused him of forcing her to have sex with him nearly five years ago. CNN followed with a report that the woman accused him of entering her home without permission and raping her while he was intoxicated. Platner flatly denied the allegations.
On Tuesday, the Washington Post reported that a former girlfriend of Platner's said he repeatedly removed condoms during sex without her consent, an allegation that Platner's campaign called "categorically false and politically motivated."
Democratic leaders and Senator Bernie Sanders have called on Platner to withdraw from the race. Prominent members of Congress rescinded their endorsements of him and leaders of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee said they would withhold funding from the race if Platner remained on the ballot.
The departure may signal the end of Platner's rapid political rise, as he tapped into a current of progressive politics by promoting a universal national healthcare system and working-class themes while directing criticism at billionaires and concentrated wealth.
Platner has faced a series of other controversies, including offensive Reddit posts he apologized for and a now-covered tattoo that resembled a Nazi symbol. The Wall Street Journal reported that Platner's wife, Amy Gertner, had told the campaign her husband sent sexually explicit texts to several women early in their marriage. In a video message, Gertner said the two had a "great marriage."
Platner has acknowledged poor behavior in the past and asked for forgiveness, saying he struggled with alcohol abuse and mental health issues after military deployments in Iraq and Afghanistan.
In a shocking turn of events, a prominent politician's campaign is facing a major scandal, but is it really about his behavior or something more sinister? This episode delves into the allegations against him and the surprising reactions from his party and the media.
The speaker breaks down the pattern of behavior within the Democrat Party, where men in power are often given a free pass for their actions, as long as they align with the party's policies. He cites several high-profile examples, including Bill Clinton, Joe Biden, and Eric Swalwell, who have all been accused of abuse and harassment. The speaker argues that the party's response to these allegations is not about the men's behavior, but about their policies and the potential consequences of their actions.
The episode also explores the media's role in covering up these scandals, with the speaker pointing out that the New York Times and other outlets have been complicit in downplaying the severity of the allegations. He also discusses the recent allegations against Graham Plattner, a politician who has been accused of rape and harassment by multiple women. The speaker argues that the party's reaction to these allegations is not about holding Plattner accountable, but about protecting their own interests and maintaining power.
If you're interested in learning more about this story and the speaker's analysis, tune in to this episode to hear his thoughts on the Democrat Party's handling of these scandals and the implications for the country.
