Today’s Headlines: Trump is reportedly gearing up for his first big firing of Term Two — and no, it’s not Pete Hegseth or RFK Jr. The likely target is DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, because she’s not deporting people fast enough for Grandpa Joffrey. Rumor is she’ll be swapped out for Glenn Youngkin once he’s done being Virginia’s governor. Meanwhile, Alina Habba is officially out after her totally-not-real stint as U.S. attorney, Trump is still shielding Pete over that missing boat-strike video, and MTG is rebranding herself as “America First” — prompting Trump to call her a washed-up traitor. In Texas, Jasmine Crockett is in the Senate race, Colin Allred is out, and Democrats suddenly have… a plot twist. Trump and Ag Secretary Brooke Rollins dropped a $12B farm bailout to fix the tariff mess Trump created, because of course. Paramount is launching a hostile, Saudi- and Kushner-funded bid to snatch Warner Bros. Discovery away from Netflix — the messiest media custody battle imaginable. And finally, ABC renewed Jimmy Kimmel despite Trump rage-tweeting that he should be fired, even while Trump was busy giving himself a medal at the Kennedy Center Honors.
