White House Bars AP Journalist Over “Gulf Of America” Naming Dispute, Media Freedom Concerns Rise
The White House denied an Associated Press reporter access to a key event after AP refused to adopt Trump's executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico as the "Gulf of America." The barring comes amid broader tensions between the Trump administration and media organizations, with federal funding for press subscriptions now under scrutiny.
AP condemned the move as a violation of press freedom, while the White House defended its stance.

During a fiery White House press briefing, Fox News correspondent Alexandria Hoff pressed Trump Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt with a provocative question: “Does the president see himself as a king?” Hoff was referencing the upcoming “No Kings Day” protest planned for Trump’s birthday military parade, aimed at criticizing ICE raids and authoritarian optics. Leavitt, unfazed, dismissed the premise as “absurd” and reaffirmed Trump’s respect for the Constitution. She also slammed Democrats for politicizing American symbols and defended the parade as a “celebration of freedom, not royalty.”

California labor leader David Huerta was arrested during an anti-ICE protest and charged with “conspiracy to impede an officer.” Released on a $50,000 bond, Huerta, who represents over 750,000 workers through SEIU, reaffirmed his call for nonviolent resistance. His arrest during a federal immigration raid has ignited outrage, with SEIU President April Verrett warning of broader threats to democracy. Local protests escalated into unrest as Trump’s immigration crackdown deepens tensions in Los Angeles. Governor Newsom now faces direct threats from the White House after challenging ICE publicly.

As Los Angeles erupts in chaos over Trump’s immigration enforcement crackdown, the White House has deployed 700 U.S. Marines and 2,000 additional National Guard troops to the city — all without California Governor Gavin Newsom’s consent. The dramatic military surge, aimed at quelling violent protests and protecting federal property, has ignited a fierce legal and political battle. Governor Newsom and Attorney General Rob Bonta have launched a lawsuit against what they call a “dictatorial overreach,” accusing Trump of violating state sovereignty.

Elon Musk has stepped down from leading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), handing the reins to conservative policy strategist Russell Vought. A key Trump ally, Vought is best known for shaping Project 2025 and pushing aggressive spending cuts and federal downsizing. He aims to revive Trump’s Schedule F and slash budgets at agencies like USAID and NPR. Musk, who reportedly wants to focus on Tesla and SpaceX, had worked closely with Vought during DOGE’s early days. Critics warn Vought's Christian nationalist leanings and military spending cuts may spark major backlash.

Elon Musk's departure from the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) marks a significant shift in the Trump administration's cost-cutting agenda. Musk, who served as a special government employee, stepped down after reaching the 130-day service limit. His exit follows criticism of the administration's "One Big Beautiful Bill," which Musk argued would increase the federal deficit, countering DOGE's objectives.
During his tenure, Musk aimed to reduce federal spending by $2 trillion but managed to cut approximately $150 billion. His efforts included auditing government credit cards, canceling leases on underutilized federal buildings, and restructuring agencies like USAID and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
