| “Immigrants
soon find their place in urban
life, they soon adopt, externally, town manners and opinions, but for a
long time they remain foreign to civic thought. One cannot make a
social philosophy one’s own as easily as a new costume. . . More

seeming citizens within – those who are citizens in gesture,

in thought.” —Ludwig von Mises, Socialism: An Economic and Sociological Analysis, p. 38 (1922) |

U.S. Strategy Has Left Iran’s Infrastructure Vulnerable, Says Military Historian Victor David Hanson Christina Park Rejecting claims that the U.S. is trapped in a "quagmire" with Iran, historian Victor Davis Hanson predicted Thursday that President Donald Trump will systematically cripple Tehran’s infrastructure before shifting the burden of securing the Strait of Hormuz to oil-dependent European and Asian allies. “He’s going to respond disproportionately,” Hanson, a senior fellow in military history at the Hoover Institution at Stanford and professor emeritus of classics at California State University, Fresno, said on the John Solomon Reports podcast.  Voting, California Style Roger D. McGrath Whether intentional or not, the process of voting in California from registration to the final delivery of the ballot is highly vulnerable to fraud. At several different steps in the process, a dishonest sort can easily take advantage of it. If a security firm reviewed California’s system, it would conclude it’s beyond repair and should be scrapped. To legally register to vote in California, one must be a U.S. citizen and a California resident. Looks good thus far. However, you may register – and vote – in a language other than English and demand all materials in Spanish, Chinese, Hindi, Japanese, Khmer, Korean, Tagalog, Thai, or Vietnamese. This seems strange considering that, with a few exceptions, to become a naturalized citizen, one must pass an English proficiency test. It gets worse. |

 Tributes Pour in for Sen. Lindsey Graham from President Donald Trump, DC, and the World Jennifer Oliver O'Connell Graham served in the U.S. House of Representatives for eight years before being elected to the United States Senate, where he served for 23 years. Graham even ran for president during that period. So, reaction has been pouring in from a multitude of corners, from the President of the United States to world leaders, to media figures whom he interacted with on a regular basis up until the time of his death. |

| The Venezuelan Earthquakes Exposed Something – and It Wasn't Just Shoddy Infrastructure Sarah Anderson When we first captured Nicolás Maduro, Marco Rubio made two things clear. The first was that "interim president" Delcy Rodríguez is not the endgame. We all knew she was just as corrupt as Maduro and was merely the Trump administration's pragmatic little puppet, who will do everything they tell her to so she can save her own head. The second was that there was a very specific three-point plan for the country. First, stabilize. Make sure the country doesn't break out into some kind of civil war. Second, recover. Get the country's oil flowing again so it can have an economy. Third, hold elections and transition to a real democracy... The Wall Street Journal actually has a great article suggesting that the reason why they're turning help away, particularly in the hardest hit area of La Guaira, is that it's "ground zero" for drug trafficking, money laundering, and other regime-linked smuggling. Remember, Maduro's "government" was basically a cartel. |

| An Illustrated History of the Muslim Brotherhood Democrats, CAIR and Hamas – Oh My! Doug Ross In an interview on August 12, 2025, with Sid Rosenberg on "Sid and Friends in the Morning," Secretary of State Marco Rubio confirmed that the administration is "in the works" on designating the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization. What’s the background of this statement? The Muslim Brotherhood frequently made headlines during the Obama administration, whether because of its brief takeover of the Egyptian government, its invitation to the White House, or its shadowy ties to longtime Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin. Throughout his presidency, Barack Obama refused to use the word "terror", let alone "Islamic terrorism", when it comes to describing the unceasing series of attacks launched at the behest of a fanatical ideology. |

| Mamdani's Immigrant Neighborhood Map Snubs Little Italy, Sparks Italian-American Fury; Also Jewish (of course) and Irish New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani's office released an official guide titled "New York City Immigrant Enclaves" that spotlights 30 neighborhoods across the five boroughs, and somehow left Little Italy off the list. The omission has drawn sharp public criticism from Italian-American leaders who say the city erased one of Manhattan's most recognizable immigrant communities while making room for dozens of others. The map, produced by the NYC Mayor's Office of Immigrant Affairs, includes Koreatown in Manhattan, Little Pakistan in Brooklyn, Little Yemen in the Bronx, and Little Odessa, among others. It also features Little Palestine, Little Bhod-Tibet, Little Guyana, Little Mexico, and Little Dominican Republic. | |
| Mamdani Fiscal Crisis Claim Doesn’t Deter Proposed 18.2% Pay Raise for Himself, City Council The Big Apple’s budget woes may have proved free buses a bust, but they weren’t enough to deter the mayor’s personally appointed commission from proposing a massive boon for Hizzoner. Legislative malfeasance has continued to prime apathy amongst the makers, ushering in a 2026 primary season rife with socialist victories for the all too giddy takers. Before the new crop of commies seek wins in the fall, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D) was previewing how empty promises will likely play out as a recommended 18.2% raise was introduced for his personal enrichment. | |
| Ro Khanna Says The Quiet Part Out Loud About His ‘Billionaire’ Tax I & I Editorial Board  It
took less time than we would have imagined, but proponents of the
“billionaire wealth tax” have already given the game away. Anyone who
knows any history about taxes knows that the left always uses “tax the

Sutton observed in another context, that’s where the money is. But we
were surprised to see Rep. Ro Khanna admit as much, even before he and
his socialist pals get their coveted wealth tax on the boards. | |
| DOJ Warns State Officials They Can Be Prosecuted If They Let Noncitizens – Vote Wants State Plan Within 5 Days The Justice Department's top election enforcement official has sent a pointed warning to all 50 states that election administrators can be criminally prosecuted if they knowingly allow noncitizens to vote in the upcoming 2026 election. Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon sent the letters Tuesday after the U.S. government conducted reviews that found tens of thousands of noncitizens have made it onto state voter rolls, and DOJ prosecuted a handful of foreigners who voted in federal elections illegally, including an Australian citizen earlier this week. Dhillon's letters give states five days to explain how they will comply with federal voter eligibility laws and identify what steps they will take to maintain “clean voter lists" that remove noncitizens before Election Day.  Key GOP Lawmaker Seeks Vote to Restrict Birthright Citizenship As Trump Weighs Second SCOTUS Appeal Rep. Glenn Grothman, R-Wis., is co-sponsoring the Birthright Citizenship Act which, by amending the Immigration and Nationality Act, restricts birthright citizenship to children born to parents who are “(1) a U.S. citizen or national, (2) a lawful permanent resident residing in the United States, or (3) a non-U.S. national (alien under federal law) with a lawful immigration status who is performing active service in the Armed Forces.” Grothman stated he hopes Speaker Mike Johnson will bring the bill to the House floor for a vote “as early as July.” |

The ruling comes after the Justice Department sued multiple states over the issue, including California, Kansas, New Jersey and Texas. Portions of the Texas Education Code previously allowed illegal migrants to receive the discounted tuition price as long as they reside in the state. |

| Michigan Democrat Abdul El-Sayed Pressed on 'Physician' Claim Without a Valid Medical License Abdul El-Sayed, the Democratic frontrunner in Michigan's 2026 Senate primary, found himself in an uncomfortable exchange this week when an interviewer from his own side of the aisle challenged him on whether he misrepresented himself by calling himself a physician, despite holding no current medical license in either Michigan or New York. The confrontation came during a Wednesday interview with Zeteo founder Mehdi Hasan, who pressed El-Sayed directly on the credential question and on his push to delay releasing his tax returns until after the August 4 Democratic primary. El-Sayed's responses did little to settle either issue. |

| Can Britain’s Next Prime Minister Escape the Net Zero Trap? Diana Furchtgott-Roth Britain is suffering from disruptions in both weather and politics as a heat wave grips a country where only four percent of homes have air conditioning... But today’s disruptions could be useful if Sir Keir’s resignation opened a window for Britain to reset its energy policy. Mr. Burnham, dubbed the King of the North, has already signaled that he wants affordable power and British jobs, especially in Britain’s north... Britain pays 42 cents per kilowatt-hour for electricity. Germany, Europe’s other great champion of the green transition, pays 43 cents. The United States, which has no national Net Zero law, pays 20 cents, less than half ... The Brits are paying a Net Zero surcharge on every unit of electricity they consume. |

| U.S. Oil Dominance Keeps Growing Despite Lower Prices Julianne Geiger While much of the world spent 2025 debating peak oil, the United States was busy setting another production record. New data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration showed that U.S. crude oil production, including lease condensate, averaged a record 13.6 million barrels per day last year, extending America’s run as the world’s largest crude producer. That streak began in 2018, when the United States overtook Russia. Since then, shale has done what shale does best: annoy OPEC, defy forecasts, and keep pumping. | |

"This is another major win for America and another sign that the Trump administration’s economic agenda is delivering results," a Trump administration official told Fox News Digital.

Evan Brune I have a love-hate relationship with Mel Gibson’s film, “The Patriot.” On the one hand, it’s a highly entertaining movie about a topic virtually untouched by Hollywood. On the other, the movie is so replete with historical inaccuracies that one viewing is enough to send even the moderately educated history enthusiast into violent, mouth-frothing convulsions. |

| Wisconsin Election Commission Tells DOJ It’s Not Responsible for Keeping Noncitizens Off Voter Rolls Wisconsin’s election managers are reminding everyone that non-citizens are not allowed to vote in the state. But the state’s Election Commission is stopping short of promising to work with the Trump Administration to make sure they don’t. The Justice Department this week sent a letter to all 50 states that promises to prosecute any election manager who “who knowingly retains noncitizens on the state’s [voter list] or facilitates noncitizens in receiving and casting ballots could be subject to criminal liability." |

| FTC Chairman Announces Settlement with John Deere to Let Farmers Fix Their Own Equipment Again President Trump, restoring sanity little bits at a time. This time for American farmers. Yes, that's right. Like many companies these days, John Deere has created a complex and expensive system where owners must rely on them for repairs to the machines they purchase. But the "Right to Repair" movement is gaining steam. For the next decade, Deere will be required to give farmers and independent repair shops "the same equipment repair resources, including applicable software capabilities" as its stealerships -- err, dealerships. |

| U.S. Teens Underestimate Risks of Fentanyl Use U.S. teens are seriously underestimating how lethal the synthetic opioid fentanyl can be, a new study says. More than half of American eighth-graders don't think it's dangerous to experiment with fentanyl, researchers reported July 7 in JAMA Network Open. In reality, fentanyl is involved in at least 3 out of 4 teen overdose deaths, researchers said. “The majority of eighth-grade students (52%) did not see great risk in trying fentanyl once or twice,” wrote the team led by Richard Meich, a research professor at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. |

| Trump Launches Crackdown on Teachers Accused of Sexual Abuse, California Could Lose $50M; Ivy Leaguer Caught Using DEI The Trump administration is launching a nationwide crackdown on schools accused of shielding sexually abusive teachers – and California could lose $50 million in federal funding for failing to protect students, The California Post has learned. Secretary of Education Linda McMahon is expected to send letters to school districts nationwide Friday reminding them of their obligations under federal law to promptly investigate allegations of sexual abuse and harassment and prevent educators accused of abusing students from quietly moving to other schools, which is colloquially known as “passing the trash.”... Earlier this week, McMahon warned Harvard administrators that she was considering dropping the “hammer” on the Ivy League university over diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives that may run afoul of federal law. |

We Forgotten What Made Her Free? Adam Dooley As America celebrates her 250th birthday, citizens across our nation will gather beneath fireworks, wave flags, and remember the extraordinary events that gave birth to the United States.

| 10 Questions Every
Democrat Must Now Be Made to Answer I & I Editorial Board With the rapid takeover of their party by the Democratic Socialists of America underway, it’s time for every Democrat to answer for what the DSA believes in. As the City Journal’s Stu Smith reported, the DSA has adopted a new platform that is, incredibly enough, even more radical than its previous one. Although it still hasn’t been published on its website, an advance version, which Smith obtained, is straight-up Marxism, declaring “the entire global system of capital” as its enemy and promising to “build a new society from the ground up.” We doubt that many Democrats – much less the general public – have a clue what the DSA actually stands for. |

The committee included Benjamin Franklin (Pennsylvania), Thomas Jefferson (Virginia), John Adams (Massachusetts), Roger Sherman (Connecticut), and Robert Livingston (New York). The youngest among them, the 33-year-old Jefferson, a master wordsmith, was chosen to compose the draft at the insistence of John Adams. Our Founders were flawed men, but what they Declared was not.  |

Law-Breaking Leftist Nonprofits to Face Prosecution, Asset Seizures Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is pointedly warning leftist nonprofits engaged in fraud, violence, improper politics, foreign collusion or terrorism that they could face penalties far more severe than just losing their tax-exempt status, including criminal prosecutions of their officers and trustees and the forfeiture of their financial assets. "Nonprofit status is a privilege," Bessent said Friday night in a wide-ranging interview... "It is a privilege, the right to be exempt from paying taxes, being able to take donations that are tax-deductible, and have private citizens apply that against their taxes. "We believe that there are many organizations who are violating this privilege," he added. |

Dan Goldman of New York, an arch-Trump hater, could befall them. Goldman’s obnoxious showboating hatred of Trump and championing of neo-socialist agendas offered no defense against the Jacobins’ antisemitism and hatred of Israel. A number of Jewish Democrat candidates, like wannabe California congressman Scott Wiener, are backing off from Israel and now join the “genocide!” mob. Wiener hopes that the throng will reward his new anti-Israel position by overlooking the now inconvenient fact that to the anti-Semitic Democrat base he is still Jewish. |

Sarah Anderson We already know that Joe Biden tried to turn our border into a free-for-all and treated narcos with kid gloves, but now, we're learning it's even worse than we imagined. According to a new report out by the Associated Press, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration "permitted hundreds of thousands of fentanyl pills to hit the streets of New Mexico between 2023 and 2025." Essentially, the agency knowingly allowed the drug to hit U.S. communities, so it could focus on going after bigger fish. Agents and experts, however, said the tactic amounted to a gamble with public safety that potentially imperiled communities… |

Champion of Heat Deaths Maarten Boudry Here is a trivia question: which continent suffers the most heat-related deaths per capita? By a wide margin, the dubious prize goes to… Europe. In case you feel geographically confused: no, the equator does not run through Brussels. Thanks to its northern latitude, Europe in fact endures fewer heat days than almost any other inhabited region on Earth. How, then, can it hold the record for heat mortality? The real explanation comes down to two letters Europe stubbornly refuses to learn: A/C. Across the continent, only about a fifth of homes have air conditioning, against nearly 90 percent in the United States and more than 90 percent in Japan. |
And as DJT reminded all, the U.S. is responsible for the invention of A/C. |

"The Commission finds that the Respondent, due to an error in processing certificate envelope labels, issued duplicate ballots to electors in violation of Wis. Stat. § 6.86(1)(ar)," the memo states. The memo is part of a challenge filed with the Elections Commission from the Brown County Republican Party...

Where has been the outcry against presenting Islam as a religion of peace? It was simply accepted as such in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary. |

In a 6-3 opinion, the high court determined that neither Idaho nor West Virginia had violated the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment with their bans, as well as that Title IX allowed states to separate sports teams on the basis of biological sex. |

MSG’s Reputation. Science Is Finally Clearing Its Name. You've probably seen signs posted in various restaurant windows proclaiming "No MSG." Well, it must be bad for you, right? Otherwise, why would they put in the effort to let customers know? For decades, those three little letters, MSG, have struck unearned fear into the hearts of hungry people everywhere. But have you ever wondered why? Monosodium glutamate, or MSG, has gotten a bad rap for decades. It's associated with headaches and excessive sodium intake. But if you've ever happily devoured a bag of nacho cheese tortilla chips or a savory bowl of mushroom soup – guess what? You've eaten monosodium glutamate. And you're still here. |

After Calling for Action Against ‘Zionist’ Employees Seattle Colleges District is reviewing a longtime Seattle Central College professor after he reportedly sent an email to a faculty listserv stating that the school should not employ Israelis. David Quintero, a tenured Spanish language and literature professor, has taught at Seattle Central College in Seattle, Washington, for decades. The email attributed to Quintero described “Zionist Israeli dual-citizens” as “racist genocidal rapist killers” and called on Human Resources to take action against Zionist employees. |

| 'In' Means 'In,' and
'Temporary' Means 'Temporary' Nate Jackson In Mullin v. Al Otro Lado, the justices ruled 6-3 that the definition of “in” means “in.” That’s a tongue-in-cheek way of saying the issue at hand is where asylum seekers are located when they apply. Trump’s Remain in Mexico policy says they cannot come in until they’ve been approved, and his administration has worked to keep migrants away from the border in the first place. Specifically, the Immigration and Nationality Act stipulates that asylum is available to someone who “arrives in the United States,” and if a migrant is in Mexico trying to cross the border, he is not, in fact, in the United States. |

| How One Leftist Group
Prevents Corporate Employees from Supporting Conservative Nonprofits Tyler O'Neil Corporate generosity platforms such as Benevity act as middlemen, connecting employers such as AT&T, Coca-Cola, McDonald’s, and Starbucks to a host of nonprofits. But these middleman platforms often refuse to partner with mainstream conservative or Christian nonprofits, because yet another third party – the Southern Poverty Law Center – puts those nonprofits on a “hate map” with chapters of the Ku Klux Klan. The SPLC, which gained its reputation by suing Klan groups into bankruptcy, now stands accused of funneling money to Klan members, propping up the hate threat in order to raise money by claiming to oppose it. |

It seems like only yesterday that PJ Media's own Matt Margolis pronounced the Democrat Party "dead" after three far-left candidates "endorsed by socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani swept their targeted congressional primaries" against their traditional Democrat opponents. Gordillo is here to tell you that not only is the Democrat Party dead, but he and his DSA comrades wear its skinsuit. |

separate children from their families at the border,” said De Lauro,
telling Mullin that “3,900 children were separated from their
families.” Mullin interrupted by saying, “450,000 kids were
lost during the Biden administration and you didn’t say a word about it.” |

| Supreme Court Upholds Trump Move to
Deport Temporary Protected Migrants Cole Harrison The American immigration system hasn’t been undermined by some dramatic legislative betrayal. It’s been eroded by something far more mundane: nobody in Washington ever bothers to turn off a program once it’s switched on. “Temporary” humanitarian protections get renewed and extended so many times that the word loses all meaning. Meanwhile, lower courts swoop in to block every enforcement action that crosses their bench, substituting their own policy preferences for the actual text of federal law. Here’s the result. Hundreds of thousands of foreign nationals have spent over a decade living under “emergency” protections that were never designed to last more than 18 months. |

| Another One! Colombia Does the
RIGHT Thing. Now On to Brazil. Sarah Anderson As I've been reporting, Colombia had presidential elections last month, and on Sunday, there was a run-off between the Donald Trump-like right-winger, Abelardo de la Espriella (aka El Tigre), and current president Gustavo Petro's hand-picked socialist successor, Iván Cepeda. Well, we can say that another country in Latin America has taken a swing to the right because El Tigre won narrowly, though I'm willing to bet Petro and his folks were up to some funny business. I just don't buy that nearly half the country voted for the commie... or, at least, half of the 63.6% of people who showed up to the polls in Colombia and beyond. For what it's worth, Colombian expats who live in North America and Europe overwhelmingly voted for de la Espriella. |

| Report: No Federal Building Meets 60% Occupancy Standard Required by Law to Stay Open The bipartisan Public Buildings Reform Board’s analysis of General Services Administration data noted that just 275,336 of roughly 2 million federal employees nationwide worked in their offices after the law took effect, costing American taxpayers $1.34 billion a year. That includes all federal agencies, except those for the judicial branch and the Department of Defense, which did not report their numbers. The USE IT Act, which took full effect in July 2025, directs federal agencies to restaff their underused office space within 12 months or else get rid of it. |

| Making Nuclear Great Again Thomas Gallatin  Inexpensive,
readily available electricity is critical for America’s future if we
hope to continue technological development into the age of artificial
intelligence now upon us... The AI boom, which depends on massive
energy-gobbling data centers, can, in some ways, be credited with
waking up the tech world to the fact that renewables simply won’t cut
it. At the same time, the solution to the supposed green dream of
saving the planet would have been to lean into nuclear power, which,
for disingenuous reasons, leftists eschewed. Thankfully, President
Donald Trump recognized the foolishness of the Biden administration’s
green energy policies, which were exposed as little more than a
slush-fund scheme for Democrats and their buddies. The president’s goal
is to see 10 new large nuclear power plants built and operating by
2030, with the aim of quadrupling the nation’s nuclear power
production, equating to 400 gigawatts of power by 2050. |

| Freedom
of Furnaces: One More Reason to Celebrate America’s 250th Freedom of furnaces may not be on the minds of most Americans as we gear up for the nation’s 250th Anniversary, but thanks to a recent Supreme Court decision rejecting bad furnace regulations, it is one more thing we can all be thankful for. The story begins with the Biden administration and its climate agenda, which was every bit as sweeping as it was extreme. It even reached into our basements in the form of new Department of Energy efficiency standards for residential furnaces that discouraged some natural gas models in favor of electric heat. The agency put forth these standards despite conceding that natural gas costs only a third of what electricity costs per unit of energy... It is now up to the DC Circuit to heed the high court’s order and permanently strike down a furnace rule that is both bad law and bad policy. |

| EV Epitaph Eric Peters Yesterday, I spent another half-hour of my life waiting to get a partial charge at a commercial “fast” charger. I spent a total of about an hour (two roughly 30 minute sessions) waiting to get some charge back into the EV during the week I had it to test drive. If I owned this EV – which ostensibly accepts charge more quickly than some other-brand EVs – I’d be spending about four hours each month, probably, waiting for it to recover some charge. An EV takes much longer to recover a full charge – even at a “fast” charger. If you want a full charge, the wait will be much longer than half an hour, which is the time it took to recover enough charge to drive the Hyundai another 50-70 miles or so. This is not usually explained to people by the people trying to sell people on EVs. |

spend $$$? The Newsoms show the way! It is no secret Democrats/Socialists love spending money — as long as it isn't their own. If any are new to the grift and need a little guidance they should look no further than to California's Gavin and Jennifer Siebel Newsom. Gavin's obvious ambition to be president of the USofA has brought close scrutiny to his and his wife's use of other people's money. The New York/California Post have some recent articles exposing their lavish and wasteful spending. Here are some selected (I guess the new buzz is "curated"), highly edited examples: |

| Antifa Violence Gets the Justice It
Deserves Group Leader Sentenced to 100 years in Prison Emmy Griffin The wheels of justice move slowly, but they do move. Almost one year ago, on the 4th of July, Antifa members attacked an ICE facility in Alvarado, Texas. Their purpose wasn’t to protest but to cause deadly destruction. They vandalized cars and shot fireworks outside the facility to lure and ambush those working inside. The ploy worked, and one law enforcement officer arriving on the scene, Police Lieutenant Thomas Gross, was shot and seriously injured. Media coverage at the time was minimal, as usual, because stories like this conflict not only with The Narrative™ but with the rhetorical permission structure for leftist violence. CBS had sparse coverage, while other outlets like ABC and NBC did not cover the story at all. |

Episode of TDS Thomas Gallatin With an algae bloom turning the newly renovated Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool green and chunks of blue paint floating in the water, President Donald Trump declared that the pool had been vandalized. In the age of Trump Derangement Syndrome, that does seem to be the likeliest explanation. As of Saturday evening, five people had been arrested and accused of vandalism, headlined by 67-year-old David Carter Hearn, a three-time U.S. Olympian. For his part, Hearn claims complete innocence, saying he was merely reaching into the water to collect a piece of the floating blue paint when he was arrested. We’ll see what the evidence shows. |

| Supreme Court Strikes Down ‘Vampire
Rule’ in Major Win for Gun Rights Drew Berkemeyer The Supreme Court handed gun-rights advocates a major victory Thursday, striking down Hawaii’s controversial “vampire rule” that effectively banned lawful concealed carry on most private property unless owners explicitly granted permission. In a 6-3 decision split along ideological lines, the court ruled that Hawaii’s law violated the Second Amendment, with Justice Samuel Alito writing for the conservative majority... The law was dubbed the “vampire rule” by Second Amendment advocates based on classic lore that describes how vampires only enter someone’s home if they’re invited. |

National Carry Push Gets SCOTUS Boost As Hawaii’s Rule Is Knocked Down Just days after President Donald Trump told a Pennsylvania crowd that his administration is “working on” national right-to-carry legislation, the Supreme Court delivered a major Second Amendment victory to enhance Trump's record on protecting gun rights. In a 6-3 decision in Wolford v. Lopez on Thursday, the highest court in the nation ruled that Hawaii’s law requiring express property-owner permission for licensed concealed carry on private land open to the public violates the Constitution. The gun ban, a blue state tactic to skirt a previous Supreme Court decision, applied to venues like gas stations, restaurants, malls, and other highly frequented places of business. |

During a Senate hearing testimony, Postmaster General David Steiner defended the administration’s position, saying the U.S. Postal Service was not being politicized and that compliance with the proposed requirements would determine whether ballots are processed. The USPS – which, let’s remember, is a federal agency – would require states to submit their absentee voter lists before processing a single ballot. Steiner called it the “manifest.” No manifest, no mail |

The exchange came as lawmakers examined waste, fraud and abuse in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), a roughly $100 billion program that serves more than 40 million Americans. During the hearing, Republicans argued lax oversight had enabled misuse of taxpayer dollars, while Democrats warned against restricting benefits for eligible families. |

| Iran Deal Can Work If We
Hit Them Every Time They Break It Victor Davis Hanson There’s a lot of confusion, controversy, and disagreement about the latest phase of the Iran war. Remember, we bombed kinetically 38 to 40 days, then we had 60 days of negotiation, then here we are in mid-June, in which [President] Donald Trump has announced yet another time there is going to be a peace deal coming with a 60-day period for all the elements of the deal to be enacted. [W]hat this deal then hinges on – because there’s no history of Iran ever keeping their word or following any agreement, explicit or implicit – is the willingness to keep maybe one carrier group in the region to ensure that the strait stays open, that the missiles are not launched against our allies, and of course, the enriched uranium is turned over. And if we’re willing to do that and hit them hard every time they break it, then it might eventually work. |

| Gavin Newsom Says He's Being
Investigated by Department of Justice: 'Donald Trump Is Coming After Me' Josh Koehn, Josh Christenson But a source familiar with the matter told The Post that the Newsom administration is facing multiple investigations, touching on accusations of public corruption that stretch back at least a year into himself, wife Jennifer Siebel Newsom, as well as former and even current staff. The U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Eastern District of California is also specifically probing allegations brought forward by California whistleblowers regarding Newsom’s wife’s taxes as well as his former chief of staff, Dana Williamson, and potentially some current staff, the source said. While Claiming to Fight Corruption, Newsom Solicited $340M from Special Interests for Allies While California Gov. Gavin Newsom makes himself the face of the opposition to alleged corruption, he has directed over $340 million to political projects, including his wife’s nonprofit, under the controversial system of "behested payments" since he first ran for statewide office in 2011... The practice is legal under California law, but critics have warned that the policy opens the door for potential corruption. “The whole concept of behested payments is disgusting,” Steve Hilton, a Republican candidate for governor in California, told the California Post earlier this year. “It’s literally corruption in plain sight. You can be certain that, as governor, I will not be engaging in this corrupt practice and I will do everything in my power to ban it.” Gavin Newsom Using State Resources for Legal Defense California Post Editorial Board Gavin Newsom is presumed innocent. He hasn’t even been charged with anything yet – though he claimed earlier this week that federal agents have been questioning his relatives and associates. Newsom is entitled to a vigorous defense. And this week, he wrote to the US Department of Justice (DOJ), demanding that it provide any information about political motivations for the investigation, under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). There’s just one thing wrong, however: The governor’s demand came on his official letterhead, with a request for DOJ to reply directly to an email address tied to the governor’s office. Why is the governor using state resources for his personal defense? And if he is, isn’t that the very essence of corruption? |

| DC Police Lieutenant Celebrated As First Gay Union Boss Accused of Soliciting Underage Boy A veteran Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officer and former head of a D.C. police union has been arrested in what authorities described as a "disturbing" child exploitation case, MPD told Fox News Digital. Lt. Matthew Mahl, 47, who previously made history as the first openly gay chairman of the police union, allegedly exchanged text messages with an undercover Maryland detective posing as a 15-year-old boy, according to charging documents. The allegations mark a stunning fall for the longtime law enforcement officer. |

By contrast, the steep rise in anti-Christian hate crimes, meticulously tracked by the Observatory on Intolerance and Discrimination Against Christians in Europe, has gone largely unreported. |

250,000 British Girls Were Victimized by Pakistani Rape Gangs streiff | Red State Tuesday, British Member of Parliament Rupert Lowe, the leader of the Restore Britain party (sorry to say, at this point I think it is more accurate to look at Nigel Farage and his Reform Party as controlled opposition rather than a real choice), released a report that probably ensures that British politics won't be quite the same. His 219-page "The Rape Gang Inquiry Report" unmasks the concerted effort by British officials to cover up the systematic rape of British girls in their early teens, if that, intimidate the girls into refusing to press charges, and protect the feral Pakistani gangs who preyed on them. |

| “Trump
Won”: Vance Fires Back as MLB Punishes Players for Bible Verses on Pride Night Cole Harrison For years now, major American institutions – sports leagues, big corporations, even branches of the military – have quietly signed up as foot soldiers in a progressive cultural campaign. The message to Christians and traditionalists has been loud and clear: keep your beliefs to yourself, wear the approved symbols, and don’t you dare dissent publicly. Anyone who broke ranks got the treatment – professional retaliation dressed up as “policy enforcement.” But something cracked in 2024. The election wasn’t just a political shift. It was tens of millions of Americans saying they were finished being bullied into ideological submission. They chose leaders who wouldn’t bow to corporate groupthink. And this week, one of those leaders reminded everybody what that mandate actually sounds like. |

| Our Campuses Are Corrupt – And Higher Education Is Due for Its Comeuppance Glenn H. Reynolds One industry in America pumps out toxic waste day and night, but suffers no penalty for the damage it causes. It operates at enormous public and private expense, sucking up hundreds of billions of dollars in government money. Its toxic bilge poisons much of society, but those who complain about it are often dismissed as ignorant or bigoted. Its product is largely free of state and federal regulation. That industry is higher education. |

| State Department Finds
‘Birth Tourism’ Networks Around the World Exploiting the U.S. Catherine Salgado The U.S. State Department has uncovered sophisticated and dangerous “birth tourism” networks from West Africa, Europe, and North Africa exploiting our current unconstitutional “birthright citizenship” system. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is one of the biggest abusers of our idiotic “birthright citizenship” system, but plenty of other bad actors around the world cash in as well. Contrary to the original understanding of the Fourteenth Amendment, America now says any child born on our soil is automatically a citizen, even if his parents just flew into or walked into the country. Unsurprisingly, this has for years encouraged abuses. |

| Freezing Crypto and
Dropping Missiles: The Inside Story of How Trump Got Iran to Bend Amanda Head Under President Donald Trump, Iran has endured a debilitating escalation by the U.S. in the last 72 hours, and two strategies in particular tightened the screws enough to bring the Persian nation closer than ever to waving the white flag. On June 9 and 10, the U.S. conducted fresh "self-defense" strikes on Iranian air defenses, radar, surveillance, communications and military sites near the Strait of Hormuz. The escalation, involving Tomahawk missiles, aircraft, and naval assets, followed Iran’s downing of a U.S. Apache helicopter and came amid stalled talks over a potential peace deal. Equally crushing for Iran's Islamic regime was action by the U.S. Treasury Department, under Secretary Scott Bessent, targeting Iran’s cryptocurrency networks to enforce pre-existing sanctions and starve the regime of revenue. |

250: Trump Makes DC Beautiful and Safe Michael Swartz It turns out cleaning up crime wasn’t the only thing President Donald Trump wanted to take care of in our nation’s capital. Last August, Trump declared “Liberation Day” in the capital, promising that “we’re going to take our capital back” from criminal activity. Over the subsequent months, his approach has worked so well that crime in Washington, DC, is down – even from the phony numbers that led to the firing of several members of the police department. The cleanup hasn’t stopped there, though. We all know that Trump demanded a fix to the Reflecting Pool in front of the Washington Monument. Now, instead of algae-crusted gunk thanks to an ill-advised “fix” back in the Barack Obama days, the pool’s “American blue” lining provides the perfect backdrop for photogenic views as it has been refilled in recent days – just in time for the semiquincentennial celebration.  |

Senator Backs Criminal Illegal Aliens, Claims They Are His ‘North Star’ There was a time in this country when elected officials grasped a simple truth: you work for the people who sent you to Washington. The voters. The taxpayers. The families are scraping by, trying to keep their neighborhoods safe and pass something worthwhile on to their grandchildren. That arrangement between citizen and representative wasn’t controversial. It was the whole point of the job. Something has rotted in the Democrat Party, though, and the latest mess in Newark, New Jersey, has stripped away whatever thin veneer remained. Immigration enforcement is now the villain. People who broke federal law to enter this country are now the protected class. |

| Beliefs Matter: New Study Shows Widening Mental Health Gap Between Conservatives and Liberals Glenn T. Stanton Decades of research literature establishes that political liberals have poorer mental health and are less happy than political conservatives. Scholars are unclear why, as Columbia University’s magazine reported in 2023, “American adults who identify as politically liberal have long reported lower levels of happiness and psychological well-being than conservatives.” But scholars working from the Universities of Florida and Toronto contend, based on four different studies, this disparity could be because conservatives demonstrate a more positive outlook on life and greater personal agency, religiosity, moral clarity and self-worth than their liberal counterparts – all qualities which are associated with greater mental health, happiness and flexibility. |

They may still be caterwauling about "disenfranchising" black voters in the Supreme Court's Callais decision, but when it comes to the raw exercise of power, they feel no compunction about breaking up black-majority districts to make red districts in blue states more competitive for the Democrats. |

It’s not new. It’s not clever. And yet, every cycle, someone tries it again, banking on the hope that voters won’t bother reading the fine print. The fine print, in Washington, is called an FEC filing. This time around, the con artist in question didn’t even bother to hide his tracks well. Federal campaign finance documents have blown the doors off one of the most brazen cases of political double-dealing in recent memory – and it’s happening in a Senate race that could determine control of the chamber. |

According to the FBI, the domains were being used by Chinese agents to identify and recruit former and current U.S. officials who held access to classified information. The operation represents yet another example of Communist China’s relentless efforts to infiltrate American institutions and steal our national secrets. |

China’s Invasion Force Rod D. Martin  The
key to stopping a war with China – an actual World War III – is
demonstrating to the CCP that it cannot succeed. On Wednesday, Taiwan
moved a long way toward showing it can kill a Chinese invasion force.
For the first time, Taiwan fired its new American HIMARS rockets from
the side of the island China would have to invade: the western coast,
near the Dajia River estuary in Taichung, along the shore most likely
to face a Chinese amphibious assault. Taiwan used advanced weapons to
simulate killing the landing force in the water, on the beaches, and
before it can build mass ashore. Donald Trump is arming Taiwan for
exactly that fight. |

It’s ‘A Legitimate Question’ Whether Judges Should Defy Emergency SCOTUS Orders Brianna Lyman U.S. District Judge Richard Gergel of the District of South Carolina was interviewing Jackson at the American Law Institute earlier this month when he said: “I have found, as a district judge, it mystifying at times, where an emergency docket decision of maybe just two or three pages, appears to countermand longstanding Supreme Court precedent. Are we to apply the brief, the short stay decision, or denial of stay? Or are we to follow 50 years of precedent? It’s a perplexing thing to do.” Jackson said it is “absolutely a legitimate question and a legitimate concern.” Jackson’s comments are especially insane given that there is nothing new about lower courts being bound by the Supreme Court’s guidance (including an emergency order). But this wasn’t the only time Jackson was seemingly unaware how the court she sits on works. |

Judge Christopher Cooper's wife, Amy Jeffress, a former Obama-era Justice Department attorney turned top lawyer for Trump critics, encouraged her husband to reject Trump's Kennedy Center renovation plans and remove his name from the building. |

In substantially similar lawsuits filed the same day in the Western District of Pennsylvania, James Copenhaver and David Dutch are alleging they were "shot and severely and grievously wounded" due to the "negligence, recklessness and/or carelessness" of the U.S. Secret Service and/or the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).  |

| Shocking Jury Selection Scandal: Prosecutors Dismiss Brothers Over Race Confession Wyatt Porter Prosecutors in a high-profile trial dismissed multiple Black potential jurors after they admitted race would prevent them from delivering a fair verdict. The shocking confessions exposed a justice system collapsing under the weight of identity politics and social activism. During jury selection for the Karmelo Anthony trial, one Black juror candidly stated he couldn’t determine a verdict fairly. Another potential juror went even further with a jaw-dropping admission. “I don’t know if I feel right putting a brother in jail,” the potential juror said. For decades, conservatives warned that obsessive focus on race would poison every institution it touched. Now courtrooms face the consequences as activists prioritize tribal loyalty over truth. |

| Trump Draws the Line with NBC
Interview – Delivers the Perfect Line  Noah
StantonPicture this: the President of the United States, sitting inside a Wisconsin barn while rain pounds the metal roof so hard it keeps interrupting the interview. Across from him, NBC’s Kristen Welker, pressing question after question for nearly an hour. I’ll be honest – most presidents won’t give hostile outlets fifteen minutes. Trump gave her fifty. And by the end of it, he delivered a line that every American deserves to hear in full context. Only NBC would arrange a presidential interview in a barn during a rainstorm and then act shocked when things got stormy. Trump engaged on all of it. He didn’t dodge, didn’t deflect, didn’t cut it short. Then the conversation turned to California, and the whole thing came apart. SEE THE FOLLOWING ARTICLE |

New results released Saturday show Pratt’s advantage over Raman shrinking to just 7,494 votes, down from more than 20,000 a day earlier. Roughly 78% of the ballots had been counted as of Saturday. |

| Michigan Voters Say They’re Sick of
Mass Muslim Migration Steve Cortes When polled, Michigan voters express their disapproval of the masses of Third World migrants in the United States. In fact, by a stunning 6-to-1 margin, Michigan voters believe the state welcomes too many Islamic immigrants. For decades, ever since the disastrous Hart-Celler Immigration Act of 1965, America has invited in masses of migrants from the Third World, mostly based simply on family ties rather than skills, alignment with our values, and love of America. Now, new polling from the American heartland shows that voters have had enough and want to prioritize existing American citizens and fully assimilate the record number of immigrants already here. |

Gorgon Jr. announced. According to the criminal complaint, Vincent Munster, a citizen of the Netherlands, 53, is the Chief of the Virus Ecology Section, Laboratory of Virology at the Rocky Mountain Laboratory in Hamilton, Montana. Claude Kwe, a citizen of Cameroon, 38, is a research fellow in Munster’s section. The work of both men is focused on “emerging viral pathogens” and how those pathogens “cross the species barrier.” They work at a Biosafety Level 4 laboratory, which employs the highest level of biosafety precautions for scientific research of known and potential human pathogens. |

About His Military Service Maryland Gov. Wes Moore is facing fresh allegations of having exaggerated his military experience, after a yearlong Spotlight on Maryland investigation yielded “no documentary evidence” to support his claim of having “led soldiers into combat in Afghanistan.” In a May 2022 post on X, Moore wrote, “When I was an Army captain and led soldiers into combat in Afghanistan, we lived by a simple principle: Leave no one behind.” ... It wasn’t the first time Moore had made such a claim. According to the Sun, “Military records reviewed by Spotlight show no evidence that Moore, a lieutenant assigned as a brigade headquarters staff officer, experienced firefights in Afghanistan as his public narrative conveys.” |

Lopez found the charge to be void after Cox filed a motion claiming the charges were “unconstitutional” due to “vagueness.” Policies put in place by the Arlington County Board and the Arlington School Board allowed him and others to enter and use bathrooms and locker rooms based on their gender identity, rather than their sex.

Eastwood retired so quietly that I didn't even notice until his
birthday came around this weekend, and for the first time in my
lifetime – almost my parents' lifetimes for that matter – that there
isn't a Clint Eastwood movie in production. The Hollywood legend turned
96 on Sunday, making him more than a third as old as the Republic
itself. He was born in 1930, just as the Great Depression was really
getting going. His first screen appearance was an uncredited role in
1955's Revenge of the Creature, the quickie
sequel The Creature From the Black Lagoon.
Small parts on TV and movies followed, until his starring role as Rowdy

| Mr. President, Give the
Iranian Regime Nothing I & I Editorial Board If President Donald Trump is considering handing over billions to the terrorists of Tehran and leaving them in control of the Strait of Hormuz, as some news dispatches have indicated, he will have committed a blunder. The only choice they should be offered is to give up everything or lose it all to the almighty forces of the U.S. and Israeli militaries. If not, the Iranian threat will never be eliminated, only weakened for a time before returning to its demonic affairs, leaving a mess for someone else to clean up. Because Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had the courage to do what should have been done more than 45 years ago, the regime is staggering, and no lifeline should be tossed its way. |

| Where Are the Moderate
Muslims? David Strom It's not exactly true that no moderate Muslims stand up against the calls to terror and radicalism of the extremists. The UAE, for instance, will no longer fund students to study in London out of fear that the students will come back radicalized. But they are particularly rare, and especially so in Western countries, where most Muslims remain silent about the radicals, and where an awful lot of the worst extremists are quite open about their plans to bring down Western societies and Islamize them. The Palestinians, who are the new hot group of "victims" in the West, are notably excluded from settling in Muslim countries, which want nothing to do with them. |

| Should U.S. ‘Go for Iran’s Jugular’ Instead
of Seeking End to Conflict? Texas Hughes  Iran
is a theocratic monarchy controlled by a single Islamic mullah, titled
ayatollah. There are also 80+ other high mullahs who elect that leader,
though they basically select a son of the previous ayatollah. Iran’s
center of gravity is the ayatollah and the higher level mullahs, plus
all the other Iranian mullahs to a lesser degree. Shia Islam is a
hostile, brutal, fanatic version of Islam that sees any and all methods
of conquering humanity as tools to achieve Allah’s will. Iran’s
terrorist tactics and zeal for nuclear bombs on their missiles is
obedience to Allah’s will. Therefore, we must inflict a horrific,
humiliating defeat on Iran’s mullahs to end, for hopefully many
decades, their power in Iran. |

The New Car Dealers Association reports that registrations of new EVs in California in the first quarter of this year were 40% below Q1 2025.

Controversial Candidates Could Risk Dem Midterm Advantage Steven Richards Polls show that Democrats have an advantage heading into the midterm elections, spurred by the president's high disapproval rating and frustration with the Republican Party, but there is a risk. Some Democratic candidates cannot stop saying controversial things that voters may consider beyond the fringe... Yet, instead of capitalizing on this massive advantage, the party is struggling to maintain discipline, with a series of controversial candidates, shocking comments, and integrity questions threatening to undermine their momentum. One of the most extreme examples of this trend is in Texas, where a Democratic House candidate says she wants to imprison “American Zionists” in a repurposed immigration center. |

Voters. That's the Real Crisis Scott W. Rasmussen What would you want to happen if your preferred candidate lost a close election, but their campaign believed it could cheat its way to victory? Like the overwhelming majority of Americans, you’d likely accept the results. A survey conducted by the Napolitan Institute, which I founded, revealed that just 7% of voters would want their side to cheat to win. That number is hardly encouraging, but it remains a fringe view. Among a group we identify as the "Elite One Percent," however, 35% would rather see their team cheat than lose. This highly influential class is defined by postgraduate degrees, incomes above $150,000 and residence in densely populated urban areas. |

| Willingness to Circumvent Will of
Voters, Even by Cheating, Most Pervasive Among Dem Elites Just the News staff In the wake of several close elections and a few Republican upsets, Democratic Party elites are increasingly embracing rhetoric that suggests a growing contempt for the will of the voters and an eagerness to circumvent the democratic process to beat the opposition party. The redistricting wars have resulted in Republicans gaining a modest advantage in the upcoming race for control of the House, and legal setbacks to Democratic countermeasures have resulted in pivotal political leaders voicing their frustrations in increasingly provocative ways. |

| Left’s Election Fraud Denials
Crumble As DOJ Exposes Two-Decade-Long California Cheating Scheme Despite evidence to the contrary, liberal voting activists have spent years minimizing cheating concerns and portraying those who want to investigate such problems as “election deniers.” But the Justice Department, FBI and Homeland Security are now systematically exposing electoral fraud from noncitizen voting to ballot-box-stuffing schemes that are turning the table in epic fashion. The latest strike came Monday when a longtime voting activist in California reached a deal with federal prosecutors to admit to illegally paying homeless people to sign election petitions and paying people to register to vote in a two-decade scheme … |

| Democrat Candidate Drops Out of Race After He's Caught Red-Handed on Camera Home security cameras have become the great equalizers of our age. Max Morley, a former public school teacher and Kentucky Education Association union board member – you know, the kind of résumé that’s supposed to signal integrity – was door-knocking in the district when he approached one voter’s home. He rang the bell, knocked, waited. And then he reached into the mailbox to remove his opponent’s campaign flyer. The homeowner’s security camera captured every frame. |

 Jeffries Tries to Define What Is/Is
Not Acceptable anti-Semitism in Democrat Party Darleen Click Democratic House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries suddenly realizes that all the open flirting with anti-Semitism that the Left has engaged with the past 15 or so years may have crossed a line with a certain Texas Democrat. He is spinning excuses like Hunter Biden trying to avoid child support. And, of course, blame it all on the Republicans … Jeffries never names the candidate nor the party she’s a part of. If you’ve been reading along, you know Victory Girls introduced you to the lovely Maureen Galindo on May 20th. |
Why is any un-acceptable for the party of the KKK? |
| Platner Doesn't Apologize to Purple
Heart Recipient, Voters When Confronted on Post Mocking Soldier Democratic Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner declined to apologize both to voters and a Purple Heart recipient when asked by Fox News Digital about a deleted Reddit post where he said the wounded soldier "didn’t deserve to live." Platner did not respond at first when asked outside a market near his home whether he regrets making the post, which Fox News Digital reported earlier this week showed him mocking a video of Pfc. Ted Daniels taken during a clash with Taliban fighters in 2012 that ended in Daniels being shot four times and being awarded a Purple Heart. |

| Surprise Arrest During Trump's
Border Crackdown Opens Door to Cuba-Shaking Raul Castro Indictment A few weeks into President Donald Trump's second term, his crackdown on illegal immigration netted an unexpected yield: a former Cuban fighter pilot who had been allowed into the United States under President Joe Biden and was trying to get permanent residency... For 30 years, Cuban exiles in America and their representatives in Congress, like Reps. Mario Diaz-Balart and Carlos Gimenez, R-Fla., have pressured DOJ to seek charges such as conspiracy to kill Americans, destruction of aircraft, and murder against the 94-year-old Castro, his late brother Fidel, and others in connection with the shooting down of the Hermanos a la Rescate ("Brothers to the Rescue") humanitarian aircraft in 1996, which killed three American citizens and one legal permanent U.S. resident. Prosecutors and FBI agents for years demurred because they lacked key evidence or access to conspirators, and eventually, Fidel Castro, the island’s communist revolutionary leader who was given a great deal of leeway by Obama and Biden, died. DOJ Indicts Raul Castro in Connection to 1996 Attack on Aircraft in Which 3 U.S. Citizens Were Killed Jerry Dunleavy The unsealed indictment against Raul -- the second revolutionary leader of Communist Cuba following the stepping down and then death of his brother Fidel -- was obtained in April but made public Wednesday after the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Southern District of Florida charged him and other co-conspirators in connection with the attack. The charges include conspiracy to kill U.S. nationals, the destruction of aircraft and four counts of murder. The aircraft were humanitarian supply-and-rescue planes flown by Brothers to the Rescue (BTTR) over international waters near Cuba. |

| Left’s DISGUSTING Attack on
Resigning Trump Official Exposes Their True Character Wyatt Porter Democrats and their media allies are catching heat for their shameful response to Tulsi Gabbard’s resignation as Director of National Intelligence. The former congresswoman and combat veteran stepped down to care for her husband, Abraham, who was just diagnosed with an extremely rare form of bone cancer. Instead of showing an ounce of compassion, leftist politicians and cable news pundits immediately attacked her. Tony Kinnett, national correspondent for The Daily Signal, didn’t mince words when he appeared on Fox & Friends Weekend. |

| MSNBC Panel Accidentally Discovers The Declaration of Independence on Live TV In what may be the most MSNBC moment ever committed on live television, a panel recently found itself spiraling over Speaker Mike Johnson declaring that our rights do not come from government but from God. Katy Tur asked, with apparent sincerity, whether Johnson was somehow "putting God above the Declaration of Independence." Imagine accidentally discovering the premise of the Declaration of Independence on live television. That's why this is so tough to parody. The founding document of our country literally states our rights come from our "Creator." |

Assassination by IRGC Terrorist in Twisted Plot to Avenge President Taking Out His Mentor First Daughter Ivanka Trump was targeted for assassination by an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) trained terrorist in a twisted plot to avenge the president taking out his mentor, The Post has learned. Recently captured Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood Al-Saadi, 32, made a “pledge” to kill Ivanka and even had a blueprint of her Florida home, sources claimed. The Iraqi national was allegedly targeting President Donald Trump’s family in response to the killing of Iranian military chief Qasem Soleimani in a U.S. drone strike in Baghdad six years ago. |

| MA City Votes to Disable Gunshot
Detection System Just One Week After Major "Active-Shooter Event" in Order to Shield Blacks, Migrants from Cops A slew of liberal activists descended upon the Cambridge City Council in recent weeks to get the city to disable its gunshot detection devices, which help police pinpoint where gunshots are coming from to better respond to shootings. Police Commissioner Pauline Wells begged the council on Monday not to deactivate the devices, citing multiple recent cases where lives have been saved due to the system, but to no avail. |

| Focusing on Gun Control Rather Than
Criminal Control Forces Armed Citizens to Act in Self-Defense Massachusetts has among the most restrictive gun control laws in the country. The Bay State is one of an exceedingly small group of states, along with Illinois, to require a license to merely own any type of firearm. Long terrible on Second Amendment rights, in 2024 the state enacted Chapter 135, a 116-page bill that overhauled state gun laws to further attack law-abiding gun owners. On May 11, a suspect opened fire on a prominent street in Cambridge at around 12:30 p.m. Video of the incident went viral, showing the suspect seeming to shoot vehicles at random. Reports indicate that the individual fired 50 to 60 shots, striking more than a dozen vehicles and severely wounding two drivers. As with so many crimes, the suspect was stopped by…good guys with guns. |

| San Diego Mosque Shooters Hated
Basically Everyone, Possible Manifesto Shows Online writings linked to the gunmen in Monday’s deadly California mosque shooting show broad hatred for humanity that crossed political lines. Now-deceased teenage suspects Cain Clark and Caleb Velasquez wished death upon non-whites and women and described the right and left as beholden to malicious Jewish influence, according to a 75-page screed obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation that law enforcement sources said they are reviewing in comments to media outlets. Muslim Security Guard Killed By Neo-Nazis Made Facebook Posts Admiring Hitler, Blasting Jews Two people who hated Jews killed another guy who hates Jews. What a world. Amir Abu Abbas is a Muslim man in Sacramento who was friends with Amin Abdullah, the security guard who was just killed by two neo-Nazi teens while protecting the Islamic Center of San Diego. The two teens, Cain Clark and Caleb Vasquez, wrote a manifesto where they blamed the Jews for the majority of the world's problems. They named that manifesto "The New Crusade: Sons of Tarrant" in honor of Brenton Tarrant, the neo-Nazi who shot up a New Zealand mosque in 2019, killing 51 people. |

| Senators Call for Nationwide
Campaign to Identify Chinese Components in Critical U.S. Infrastructure A pair of senators are making a bipartisan argument for launching a nationwide campaign to identify Chinese components in vulnerable critical infrastructure across the United States, especially in the U.S. maritime industry after unusual components were found in port cranes imported from China. “What would happen if they shut down our electrical grid tomorrow? What would happen … if they shut down our ports tomorrow? Right? If we're buying Chinese products or we are allowing their infrastructure to be part of ours, they're going to have the ability to do that,” Scott said on the Just the News, No Noise TV show. |

Accepted Over $100,000 from Donors with Ties to Chinese Communist Party The most dangerous enemies don’t storm the gates – they’re invited through the front door. For decades, the Chinese Communist Party has understood that influence isn’t seized; it’s purchased, one campaign contribution at a time. While Americans worry about foreign threats abroad, a quieter invasion has been unfolding in statehouses and city councils across the nation. California State Treasurer Fiona Ma – the Democratic frontrunner in the state’s 2026 lieutenant governor race – has accepted more than $100,000 in campaign contributions from donors with documented ties to the Chinese Communist Party and its intelligence apparatus. |

| Rep. Chip Roy Introduces
Legislation to Ban Foreign Adversaries from Buying American Homes The legislation, titled The Ban Chinese Communist and Islamist Home Ownership Act, would ban all purchases of such housing and require the divestment of all current residential ownership by adversarial foreign owners. “American homes belong to American families – not the Chinese Communist Party, foreign Islamists or our geopolitical foes. While Americans struggle to afford housing, hostile regimes are buying up our land and neighborhoods,” Mr. Roy said. “This bill slams the door on foreign adversaries owning American housing and forces them to sell what they already control. We’re putting America’s homes back in American hands.” |

Consumers are unlikely to see any of that money... By law, refunds go only to the businesses that paid the tariffs at import, not to consumers who absorbed the costs through higher retail prices. |

Lest you thought that the worst thing about that despicable machination was simply that Virginia Republican voters would be disenfranchised, read on and be enlightened. the Democrats who greedily gerrymandered Old Dominion saw the state as merely a stepping stone from which they could foist a veritable freak show of far-left operatives onto the entire country.

| Another One: Teen Suspect Tied to
12 Attacks in Chaotic Austin Shooting Spree Identified As Illegal Alien The 17-year-old suspect accused of launching a random shooting spree across Austin has been identified as an illegal immigrant, prosecutors revealed Tuesday. Cristian Mondragon-Fajardo is one of three suspects who allegedly carried out 12 separate shootings across the city over the weekend, leaving three people injured and another victim in critical condition. The two other suspects, ages 15 and 16, have not been publicly identified due to their age. The development comes after a retired Austin police officer blasted the city’s left-leaning leadership, accusing the city council of embracing policies that weakened law enforcement before the violent rampage, including the stripping of key tools used by police. |

| Eli Lilly Says Next-Generation
Weight Loss Drug Clears Crucial Obesity Trial The results bring Lilly one step closer to filing for approval of the weekly injection, called retatrutide, which works differently from existing shots and pills from both Lilly and Novo Nordisk. It also appears to be more effective than those options. The highest dose of retatrutide helped patients lose 28.3% of their weight – or 70.3 pounds – on average over 80 weeks, compared with 2.2% with placebo, when evaluating only patients who stayed on the drug. |

| Convicted Child Sex Offender on the
Run After California Judge Released Him on Bail Jon Brenner This is the state that watched homelessness devour its sidewalks and called it compassion, that downgraded retail theft and acted surprised when storefronts boarded up, where open-air drug markets operate with something close to official permission while law-abiding citizens lock their doors and wonder what happened to the place they used to love. But even by California standards, what happened in El Dorado County last summer should stop you cold. A 51-year-old man named Carl Cacconie was convicted of six felony counts of lewd and lascivious acts on an 11-year-old girl. Six counts. A child. A jury heard the evidence, weighed it, and delivered a guilty verdict. He faced 18 years in prison. And then Judge Michael McLaughlin – a registered Democrat appointed by Governor Jerry Brown – set bail at $1 million and let a convicted child predator walk out of the courthouse. Cacconie posted bond. And he vanished. |

| Female Dems Revolt Against Women's
History Museum Over Biological Sex Language Democrats sought to defeat the bill after Republicans limited the institution to biological women and excluded transgender individuals. The measure came up short in a vote of 204-216 after a handful of conservative GOP lawmakers joined Democrats in tanking the legislation that would secure a site for the forthcoming Smithsonian American Women's History Museum on the grounds of the Mall. The defecting Republicans objected to the measure over concerns about whether a women's history museum was necessary and because the bill did not include protections against left-wing content from appearing in the institution," a source familiar told Fox News Digital. |

Across Spectrum, Expanding Masters Education and Trade Jobs Access President Donald Trump's Department of Education is approaching skill and education access at two different levels, the post-graduate level and in the critical skilled trades, according to Education Secretary Linda McMahon. On Monday, McMahon spotlighted a critical U.S. workforce challenge: for every five skilled trades workers retiring, only about two are entering the field. Without intervention, the nation could face a shortfall of roughly 2.1 million jobs by 2030. Under McMahon's leadership and the direction of President Donald Trump, the newly implemented Workforce Pell Grant program is a direct response, aiming to train Americans quickly for high-demand, high-wage careers. |

| Law School Accreditor ABA Moves to
End DEI to Protect Its Monopoly Under Threat from Trump, State Courts As red states expand accreditation options for their law schools and the Trump administration pushes to dismantle the legal field's politically progressive flavor of racial discrimination, the American Bar Association is taking decisive action to stanch the bleeding before its federal monopoly over who can become a lawyer is rendered toothless or ended altogether. The ABA Accreditation Council has given final approval to repealing Standard 206 [among others], which demands law schools "demonstrate by concrete action" their commitment to diversity and inclusion in admissions and hiring by "gender, race, and ethnicity," regardless of whether a "constitutional provision or statute" purportedly prohibits such preferences. |
