The Trump administration has pulled more than 175,000 visas from foreign nationals since the president took office, with the State Department saying the majority were revoked after holders ran into law enforcement for crimes ranging from assault to drug offenses. The department announced the milestone Monday, framing the effort as a direct enforcement of a simple principle: holding a U.S. visa carries obligations, and foreign nationals who break the law, threaten Americans, or game the immigration system will lose the privilege. Secretary of State Marco Rubio's name appeared alongside Trump's in the agency's statement pledging to keep identifying and revoking visas from those who pose a threat.

MSNBC host Joe Scarborough unloaded on Democratic leaders for letting extreme voices define their party unchallenged, warning they are repeating the same mistakes that cost them the 2024 presidential election. Scarborough used his MSNBC program to target Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's handling of questions about Wisconsin gubernatorial candidate Francesca Hong, a democratic socialist who once called for abolishing the police, prisons, and Thanksgiving. When pressed on ABC's "This Week" about her refusal to endorse Hong, Ocasio-Cortez dodged, saying only that Hong had "moved away" from many of those old positions. She then cited an unnamed New York City councilman's line: "Woke 1 was crazy." That wasn't good enough for Scarborough. He…Open

Illegal immigrants are now flying over Spain's fortified border fence into the enclave of Ceuta on paragliders supplied by people smugglers, and the Spanish government spent months denying it was happening.
