Sky News host James Morrow has torched former White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre for releasing a tell-all book and 'gaslighting' America while in her role.

Colorado attacker overstayed his visa before Biden granted him two work permits
Fox News contributor Joe Concha has commended US President Donald Trump for his travel ban and has criticised the Biden administration for granting the man who committed an antisemitic attack in Colorado two work permits. Trump has imposed a travel ban on citizens from 12 countries, including Afghanistan, Iran, and Yemen, and has announced a partial ban on several more nations. 'We saw that recently in Boulder, Colorado, where a man who overstayed his visa from Egypt then got two work permits through the Biden administration, then declared asylum, which means you can stay longer … and then carried out what looked like a re-enactment of the Holocaust,' Mr Concha told Sky News host James Morrow. 'He literally tried to light elderly Jews on fire.'

Bromance over: tensions between Trump and Musk erupt into open warfare
Washington: Tensions between Donald Trump and his former 'first buddy' Elon Musk have erupted into open warfare, with the US president suggesting Musk has a version of 'Trump derangement syndrome', and the world's richest man insisting he won the election for Trump. The friendship has crumbled swiftly since Musk officially left his White House post on Friday and proceeded to unleash a campaign against the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which extends Trump's first-term tax cuts and raises the US debt ceiling by trillions. The breakdown in the relationship, while predicted by some from the outset, is significant because of the Tesla chief's continued reach and influence and his clear desire to tank Trump's top domestic priority. 'Elon and I had a great relationship. I don't know if we will any more,' Trump told reporters in the Oval Office on Thursday (Friday AEST). 'He was here for a long time. You saw a man who was very happy when he stood behind the Oval [Office] desk ... He said wonderful things about me. He's worn the hat, 'Trump was right about everything'. And I am right about the great big beautiful bill.' Trump said he was surprised by Musk's barrage of criticism, but asserted the Tesla chief was upset because the bill cuts a Biden-era electric vehicle mandate which was a boon for his business. 'All of a sudden he had a problem, and he only developed a problem when he found out we were going to have to cut the EV mandate,' Trump said. 'I can understand that, but he knew every aspect of this bill, he knew it better than almost anybody, and he never had a problem until right after he left.
