A statue of Christopher Columbus has been erected outside of an ornate federal office building on the White House grounds — the latest sign of the Trump administration’s efforts to reshape cultural and historical representations across the nation’s capital.

The installation of the statue — which is a replica of one toppled in Baltimore during racial justice protests in 2020 — occurred over the weekend outside of the Eisenhower Executive Office Building. It comes as the Trump administration pushes forward with its efforts to bring back statues that were removed in the wake of the protests.

President Donald Trump, in a letter published by the Conference of Presidents of Major Italian American Organizations, praised the group for its “incredible generosity” in bringing the statue to Washington after the original was “torn down by anti-American rioters.”

Many statues of Columbus, an Italian often falsely credited as the first overseas explorer to discover America, were taken down at the height of the demonstrations over George Floyd’s murder in 2020. Columbus has long been a contentious figure in history for his treatment of Indigenous communities and for his role ushering in European colonization in the Americas.

The White House said it’s “proud” to honor Columbus. “As we celebrate our Nation’s 250th anniversary of independence, the White House is proud to honor Christopher Columbus’s legendary life and legacy with a well-deserved statue on the White House grounds,” spokesman Davis Ingle said in a statement to CNN on Monday.

“President Trump has rightly hailed Christopher Columbus as ‘the original American hero, a giant of Western civilization, and one of the most gallant and visionary men to ever walk the face of the earth.’ In this White House, Christopher Columbus is a hero, and President Trump will ensure he’s honored as such for generations to come.”


The 13-foot statue recently installed on the White House campus is a copy of a work that was wrenched down from its pedestal and thrown into Baltimore’s harbor in 2020. While it stands across from the Smithsonian’s Renwick Gallery and near the White House building, it’s not accessible for close public viewing and is blocked off by rows of fences.

The new work contains pieces of the statue that were retrieved from the Baltimore Harbor, according to a release from the Conference of Presidents of Major Italian American Organizations, which worked with the White House to bring the statue to Washington in celebration of Italian American culture and the United States’ 250th anniversary.

“Columbus statues have long stood as symbols of pride and cultural identity for more than 18 million Americans of Italian descent,” the group’s president, Basil Russo, said in a news release. “For over a century, Columbus’s legacy helped Italian immigrants navigate prejudice and hardship, serving as a source of unity and belonging as they built new lives in this country.”

“Christopher Columbus was the original American hero and one of the most gallant and visionary men to ever walk the face of the Earth,” Trump said in his letter, adding Columbus’ voyage in 1492 “carried thousands of years of wisdom, philosophy, reason, and culture across the Atlantic into the Americas.”

The installation builds on Trump’s push to bring back statues that were removed in the wake of the Floyd protests. Across the country, controversial statues — especially Confederate monuments — were removed after the mass demonstrations in 2020.


So far, the Trump administration has reinstalled a statue of Confederate officer Albert Pike in Washington, DC, and announced plans to return a Confederate memorial to Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia.

Piers Morgan walks off live interview after explosive clash with influencer: 'You're a f---ing idiot'

TV host Piers Morgan has walked off a live interview on his own show amid an explosive clash with internet personality and Netflix documentary subject Harrison Sullivan, who's also known as HSTikkyTokky.

Amid a wider Piers Morgan Uncensored talk show discussion about Sullivan's appearance in the new documentary Louis Theroux: Inside the Manosphere, the pair engaged in a heated fight, with the 60-year-old host growing increasingly frustrated over 24-year-old Sullivan's volatile accusations against him during the chat.

In a partial clip of the wider interview that's currently circulating on social media, Morgan asked Sullivan, "I'm curious why you don't think disowning a child for being gay is homophobic?" with regard to Sullivan's participation in the documentary that examines internet culture surrounding toxic masculinity and its impact on the digital landscape

"What I do with my children is up to me," Sullivan replied, before telling Morgan: "I don't agree with you going to Epstein's island."

Morgan emphatically denies any illegal involvement with Jeffrey Epstein — a convicted sex offender who died in prison in 2019 — despite telling Sullivan that he believes his name appears 27 times in files released by the Justice Department and related to Epstein's dealings.

"I've never been to Epstein Island. Just to be clear, Harrison, let's be calm. Just to be clear," Morgan said. He later told Sullivan, "Do you want to keep doing this? You'll make yourself look very stupid," before telling the guest that he only met Epstein's currently incarcerated associate, Ghislaine Maxwell, once — very briefly — in his entire life.

"I say this very respectfully. I don't think you're very well informed about things like that, or you wouldn't go there," Morgan said, as Sullivan continued to question Morgan's involvement

"You're making yourself look an even bigger idiot than you did on the Netflix show," Morgan added, while Sullivan pressed on, telling Morgan, "To people like you, sir. I don't mind that. You make yourself look like an idiot every single day."


Sullivan then pulled up a 2022 Instagram photo of Morgan's wife Celia Walden lounging by the pool and said Walden "wants to get used like a toy by a big Black man who's cleaning her car." He then alleged that Morgan had an issue with him because the TV host projected such an image onto him: "Because I'm the big Black man that shagged your wife while you are on holiday?" he asked.

Morgan can then be seen gathering his papers and dismissing Sullivan, getting up from his desk and walking away from the interview while muttering, "Let's just end this" and "I'm not doing this. Sorry, guys. It's pointless."

Following the interview, Sullivan shared the moment to his personal Instagram account, writing, "Piers Morgan… cucked off his own show. Just like his cucked by his Mrs on the daily. Silly old man."

The United States Department of Justice has filed a civil complaint seeking to revoke the citizenship of a Nigerian, Emmanuel Oluwatosin Kazeem, over his role in a large-scale identity theft and tax fraud scheme.

According to a press release issued by the department on Thursday, Kazeem orchestrated a massive identity theft and tax fraud scheme that targeted over 259,000 victims and attempted to steal more than $91 million from the US Internal Revenue Service.

The complaint, filed on Wednesday in the US District Court in Baltimore, Maryland, seeks to revoke Kazeem’s American citizenship, which the government alleges he obtained through fraud and concealment of his crimes.

Kazeem was convicted in 2017 on 19 counts of mail and wire fraud, aggravated identity theft, and conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud, and was sentenced to 15 years in prison.

He served only six years before then-President Joe Biden commuted his sentence in December 2024 alongside nearly 1,500 others who had been serving under house arrest following early prison releases during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The DOJ’s Civil Division Assistant Attorney General, Brett Shumate, said the Trump administration would not allow wrongdoers to retain citizenship they were never entitled to.

The Trump Administration will not permit wrongdoers to retain the U.S. citizenship that they were never entitled to in the first place. U.S. Citizenship is a privilege, and we will continue to ask courts to revoke a status that was obtained through fraud and deceit.”

According to the press release, the denaturalisation complaint alleges that Kazeem’s fraudulent activities which were carried out both before and after his naturalisation, disqualified him from lawfully obtaining citizenship.

The complaint further alleges that he had earlier entered a sham marriage to secure permanent resident status before marrying a second woman, a conduct that independently disqualified him from naturalisation.

The fraud scheme came to light in May 2013 when, according to the DOJ, “a victim in Medford, Oregon, notified the IRS that false federal and Oregon state tax returns were filed electronically using her and her husband’s personal identifying information.”

An IRS investigation led to search warrants executed at residences in Illinois, Maryland, and Georgia, as well as numerous email and instant messenger accounts used by Kazeem and his co-conspirators.

The press release stated that agents seized “approximately 150 prepaid debit cards and $50,000 in money orders” at a Chicago property, and more than 50 electronic devices, 40 money orders exceeding $29,000, $14,000 in cash, and prepaid debit cards containing over $12,000 in fraudulent tax refunds at properties in Maryland and Georgia.

The search warrants, according to the DOJ, “helped agents identify Kazeem as the leader and mastermind of the scheme.”

Investigators found that the scheme resulted in the conspirators possessing stolen personal identifying information of more than 259,000 victims.

The DOJ said Kazeem “purchased more than 91,000 identities from a Vietnamese hacker that originated from an Oregon company’s private database”, a firm that provided pre-employment and volunteer background checks for thousands of clients.

Kazeem divided the stolen identities into batches and distributed them to co-conspirators, including his younger brother, Michael Oluwasegun Kazeem.

The press release said Kazeem “trained and directed his co-conspirators…to use stolen PII to obtain thousands of electronic filing PINs to bypass IRS authentication procedures.”

They acquired over 19,500 electronic filing PINs and gained unauthorised access to thousands of taxpayers’ financial transcripts during the course of the conspiracy.

In total, Kazeem was linked to 10,139 fraudulent federal tax returns seeking over $91 million in refunds, of which more than $11.6 million was successfully obtained.

The DOJ said “at least 2,000 wire transfers totalling over $2.1 million dollars were sent to Nigeria,” with over 700 transfers worth more than $690,000 directly linked to Kazeem.

He used the proceeds to make a nearly $200,000 down payment on a newly constructed house and to purchase a $175,000 townhouse, both in Maryland

His average monthly credit card payment between 2012 and 2015 exceeded $8,300.

He also reportedly attempted to invest the funds in the development of what the DOJ described as “a $6 million dollar, 4-star hotel in Lagos, Nigeria.”

One day before his arrest in May 2015, Kazeem transferred the townhouse to his sister in Nigeria for $10 and added her to the deed of his Maryland home for the same amount.

He was sentenced on 20 June 2018 and ordered to pay more than $12 million in restitution.

His criminal conviction followed a joint investigation by IRS Criminal Investigation, the US Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General, and the FBI.
