U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz told Cuba's foreign minister to "back up" Tuesday after the Cuban diplomat approached the podium and interrupted his remarks on the floor of the U.N. General Assembly. "Well, we know. We know where it went. And today we are here to share it to the world," Waltz said as he accused Cuba's government of enriching its leaders while its people suffered. As the Cuban delegation sought to interrupt his remarks, Waltz fired back. "I know you don't like to hear this," Waltz said. "This is America, my friend. This is the United Nations. This isn't your communist dictatorship. You cannot silence me."

Amid an ongoing federal criminal probe, Rep. Ilhan Omar , D-Minn., who sources say is actually named Ilhan Nur Said Elmi, sent a menacing message on her public social media.

She attached a video of herself and her husband, Tim Mynett, walking on a dock over a lake with vibrant fall foliage in the background. The pair posed, smiled and appeared to chat as they serenely strolled across the dock, looking fondly at each other as the lawmaker running for reelection held a coffee. It ended with a montage of images from their walk. But a loud Somali hip-hop song accompanying the video told a much different story.

An Obama-appointed New York federal judge ruled Monday that the Trump Justice Department unlawfully fired former FBI Director James Comey's daughter Maurene, rejecting the administration's sweeping claim of executive authority and warning that its argument threatened the nation's constitutional balance of power. The Justice Department acknowledged in court filings that Comey's firing was not for-cause and was not based on her performance, but argued that the attorney general had the authority to remove her under Article II of the Constitution. "Defendants’ argument that [Constitution] Article II bars Congress from regulating the removal of AUSAs (assistant U.S. attorneys) flies in the face of nearly two centuries of Supreme Court precedent," Judge Jesse Furman wrote, adding that accepting the administration's argument would "unsettle the very equilibrium established by this nation's constitutional system." TRUMP’S FIRING POWER FACES TWIN SUPR...
