Fired Jan. 6 prosecutor plans to sue Trump administration
A fired federal prosecutor said Wednesday he is planning to sue the Trump administration over his alleged wrongful termination. Mike Gordon, a former assistant U.S. attorney, said he was removed without warning or cause after prosecuting dozens of Jan. 6 rioters. President Trump pardoned many people convicted of crimes related to Jan. 6 after taking office. He has also sought to overhaul the Department of Justice, arguing it was politicized under Democratic administrations. But critics say his administration's actions have politicized DOJ, and Gordon said his dismissal was unjust. 'I pursued cases against January 6 rioters, because what they did, not because who they supported,' Gordon told WFLA, a Nexstar affiliate. 'Because they assaulted police officers, not because who they voted for,' he added. Gordon lost his Tampa based job with the Middle District of Florida after receiving a letter from Attorney General Pam Bondi citing the power of the president outlined in Article II of the Constitution. 'The law requires that the government cannot fire a federal prosecutor without first giving warning and then giving a justification, a reason, merit-based reason for firing,' Gordon said in an interview with WFLA. 'They didn't do any of that with me,' he added. Lowell & Associates has agreed to represent Gordon as a plaintiff in the lawsuit and said additional former DOJ employees will join a legal battle set to be filed later this week. The Justice Department did not immediately respond to The Hill's request for comment on the matter. 'When that independence is compromised, justice itself is at risk. This case isn't about one prosecutor's career, but the integrity of our legal system,' Abbe David Lowell of Lowell & Associates told WFLA. 'Mike Gordon was a distinguished prosecutor whose public service included convicting violent gang members, Jan. 6 rioters who stormed the Capitol and fraudsters who preyed on people with disabilities. He followed the law, not politics, and was fired for it.'

Masked teens kick down front doors to fire realistic fake guns in alarming internet challenge: ‘Not a joke'
Terrifying video shows masked teens kicking in doors to fire terrifying-looking fake guns — part of a sick social media challenge police fear 'could end in tragedy.' Chilling security camera footage shows five teens creeping around Riverview in Florida just after 10:30 p.m. Friday, taking part in the 'door kick challenge,' according to the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office. 'Two of the juveniles approached a residence, and one of the juveniles, wearing a ski mask, kicked the front door and fired an airsoft gun before fleeing,' the sheriff's office said. 3 A teenager approached the door in a ski mask, kicked it in and fired the toy gun. Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office Such a prank 'could end in tragedy,' the department said — a warning echoed by local residents. 'This is Florida,' a local who only gave the first name Amy told WFLA. 'We're allowed to carry, we're allowed to protect ourselves, our homes, our property, our children, our pets. 3 The five teens were walking around a neighborhood in Riverside, Florida. Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office 'It's not a joke,' she continued. 'It may be lighthearted and funny to look back on your TikTok videos, sending it to your buddies on Worldstar, whatever. 'Unfortunately, it's going to end up really bad for someone one day,' she said. 3 Police said the teens were partaking in the one of the latest internet challenges. Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office Locals called the clout-chasing exploits a 'terrifying situation' — and some were wary to even open their doors to reporters, according to WFLA. Amy said she returned to her home Friday night and found a group of juveniles hanging outside 'I got out [and] asked them if there was anything I could assist them with,' she said. 'They told me to mind my own business.' The situation escalated when the youths 'started to get more derogatory with me,' Amy said — forcing her to call the cops. She said she wants teenagers to understand the prank could quickly turn into a potentially 'life or death' situation. 'Your mom's not going to want to cry at your eulogy about it, so think next time,' she added.

Key West man jailed on charges of illegal child and animal abuse material
A Key West bartender is behind bars on charges involving child exploitation and animal abuse, according to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. Jorge Tyler Perez, 28, is charged with one count of possession of child sexual abuse material and 14 counts of engaging in sexual activities involving animals — all third-degree felonies. The arrest follows a statewide FDLE initiative targeting individuals who exploit children and share abusive content online. The investigation began in November 2024 after the National Center for Missing and Endangered Children issued a cybertip indicating a Snapchat user had uploaded child sexual abuse material. Agents later identified the user as Perez and discovered he 'also uploaded videos of bestiality.' On Friday, FDLE agents executed a search warrant and seized an electronic device for analysis. Perez was arrested and booked into the Monroe County Jail. The Key West Police Department and Homeland Security Investigations assisted with the case, which is being prosecuted by the Office of the State Attorney for Florida's 16th Judicial Circuit. Authorities say the investigation remains active and ongoing. Perez is set to be arraigned on Aug. 1.
