Dr. Spencer Tepe, 37, and his wife, Monique Tepe, 39, were found shot to death in their home on December 30 after police conducted a welfare check.
Their two children were found in the home crying, but were not physically harmed.
Police were called to conduct a welfare check after Dr. Tepe, who was known for being punctual, failed to show up to work at Athens Dental Depot.
Athens Dental Depot owner, Dr. Mark Valrose, told 911 dispatchers that Dr. Tepe always shows up to work on time.
Later that day, Dr. Tepe and his wife, Monique, were discovered dead in their home.
New details reveal that Dr. Tepe and his wife were shot multiple times each.
Monique Tepe had bullet wounds to her arms, hands, chest, and one to the head.
Dr. Tepe had bullet wounds to his arms, torso, and also one to the head.

Vorschau ansehenYermak said to delve into occult practices.
This behavior mirrors the German Nazis’ obsession with occultism.
The Russian RT brings a story that would have had all the markings of pure Moscow propaganda, if it were not brought by a Ukrainian source with knowledge of the inner workings of the Kiev regime.
In an article written by Marina Akhmedova, a member of the presidential human rights council of Russia, we learn that former press secretary to Volodymyr Zelensky, Yulia Mendel, has made claims that sound like tabloid fantasy – but are very real.
According to Mendel, the disgraced former gray eminence Andriy Yermak, former head of the presidential office and Zelensky’s right-hand man, is alleged to seek help from witches of various stripes.
Shady occultists gathering ‘water from corpses’, burning herbs, and performing dark rituals.
He was de facto co-president of Ukraine: “Former press secretary of President Volodymyr Zelensky Yulia Mendel stated that former head of the Presidential Office Andriy Yermak is engaged in magic, and not just any kind, but with trips to the cemetery and “dead water”.
“She says she first heard whispers of this in 2019. After a briefing, a journalist did not chase the then new president for comments but repeatedly asked Yermak what he had been doing at a cemetery. He ignored the question. A year later, a minister confided to Mendel that Yermak was ‘into magic’. By 2023, someone from an “important service” told her he supposedly kept a “chest of the dead.” These were dolls made by magicians [witches] from Latin America, Israel, and Georgia. That chest, she says, was already ‘filled with the dead’. Interpret that as you wish.”
Zelensky and shady Yermak.
This world is a complete anomaly of the universe. LOL
It’s honestly unbelievable what kind of halfwits have been given the power to make decisions about anything.
“Mages collected water from corpses for Yermak”: Zelensky’s former Office chief turned out to be a… pic.twitter.com/earh4MIPiP
This is not the first time these accusations have emerged against Yermak. Read this from early December 2025:
Again, in the Akhmedova article:
“If Mendel is right, Zelensky’s circle did not even limit itself to local [witchcraft] traditions. Latin American shamanism, with its animal sacrifices and bone-and-flesh talismans, is far removed from Gogol’s Ukraine. To seek out such practices suggests obsession, not folklore.”
The author chillingly suggests that ‘Ukraine’s human losses are not simply tragic necessity [of the war], but offerings. They are sacrifices to dark forces in exchange for power’.
It would also explain ‘the Kiev elite’s almost mystical faith in victory’, and their Godless persecution of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church.
“And Zelensky? Mendel’s account leaves us with a grim image: a leader who once played a clown on television, now presiding over real tragedy, trusting not in diplomacy or realism, but in spells. A clown doll in a box of the dead.”

A Native American tribe that once owned land under leftist pop star Billie Eilish’s LA home sent a sharp message to her after she went on a rant at the Grammy Awards on Sunday.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Eilish went viral for an incredible lack of self-awareness while trying to pander to her fellow millionaires and left-wing allies.
After winning “Song of the Year,”, she committed a brutal self-own in her victory speech by stating “No one is illegal on stolen land” before going on bash immigration enforcement.
“We need to keep fighting and speaking up,” she added. “Our voices do matter.”
“F**k ICE.”
WATCH:
Eilish’s comments were brutally mocked on social media by conservatives, who called on her to return her property to the Native Americans or to house illegal aliens.
Her comments went so viral they attracted attention from prominent conservatives such as Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.
Now, The Daily Mail has revealed that the Tongva tribe confirmed that Eilish’s mansion does indeed sit on “ancestral land.”
They also did not take kindly to her virtue-signaling.
Instead, they scolded her for not contacting them regarding her property and for not referencing them specifically in her speech. Ouch.
“Eilish has not contacted our tribe directly regarding her property, we do value the instance when public figures provide visibility to the true history of this country,” a spokesperson for the tribe told the Daily Mail.
“It is our hope that in future discussions, the tribe can explicitly be referenced to ensure the public understands that the greater Los Angeles Basin remains Gabrieleno Tongva territory,” the spokesperson continued.
The Tongva tribe inhabited Los Angeles Basin, including Los Angeles County, parts of Orange County, and the islands of Santa Catalina, San Clemente, Santa Barbara, and San Nicolas for over 7,000 years.
Jill Biden’s ex-husband Bill Stevenson was charged with first-degree murder of his wife, Linda Stevenson.
Last month police swarmed Stevenson’s home after his wife died amid a domestic dispute.
Police removed several items from the Stevenson home last month.
64-year-old Linda Stevenson, wife of Jill Biden’s ex-husband Bill Stevenson, was found unresponsive after police arrived to the New Castle, Delaware, residence late Sunday night.
According to TMZ, Linda Stevenson was found dead in the living room.
TMZ obtained 911 dispatch audio, which references cardiac arrest:
#Exclusive Jill Biden's ex-husband's wife dies after Delaware cops were called for a domestic dispute, and found her unresponsive.
A Delaware man who was previously married to former First Lady Jill Biden has been arrested and charged with murder after his wife was found dead in their home late last year.
What we know:
William Stevenson, 77, is charged with first-degree murder in the death of his 64-year-old wife Linda Stevenson after a weeks-long investigation.
Linda was found unresponsive on the living room floor after officers responded to a home on the 1300 block of Idlewood Road for a domestic dispute call on December 28, 2025. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
On Monday, William was taken into custody at the same home.
Joe Abraham’s 20-year-old daughter, Katie, was killed by an illegal immigrant from Guatemala. The illegal, who is suspected of drunk driving, struck Katie at high speed while she was stopped at a red light.
The White House shared a video of Joe rebuking anti-ICE activists and Democrats for protecting illegals over the safety of Americans like his daughter, noting, “THIS IS OUR WHY.”
Joe told Fox News, “The person that killed Katie, Julio Cucul-Bol, who was using an alias, who couldn’t read or write English or Spanish, he was using a Kai Qi language, barreled into them at 80 miles an hour.”
“Katie died on the scene. He fled the scene.”
“So you hear a lot of this like, ‘Oh, you’re separating families and you’re disappearing people.'”
“Well, I was separated. Katie has been disappeared. Why is there no consideration on that for Katie?”
“When am I going to get a phone call to say, ‘Let’s go to Springfield and protest Governor Pritzker’s radical policies?'”
“He nullifies federal law. He tells Congress that immigration is their purview. He nullifies it, basically comes up with his own immigration plan, which is nothing. Clearly, it was nothing. He allows hundreds of thousands in.”
“Katie wasn’t the only victim, and he’s got nothing but silence for us.”
“Unfortunately, Renee Good in Minnesota, two seconds in, he’s in front of the mic. I don’t understand the one-sided compassion.
“Apparently, Katie does not qualify for any compassion from our governor, J. B. Pritzker.”

A harrowing discovery has been made inside the home of Nancy Guthrie, the mom of “Today” show host Savannah Guthrie, as the famed anchor has broken her silence.
Law enforcement sources informed the Los Angeles Times on Tuesday morning that blood was discovered along with signs of forced entry in Nancy’s house, which is in Catalina Hills, Arizona.
Police have not confirmed at this point whose blood it was.
“At this point, investigators believe she was taken from the home against her will, possibly [in the] middle of the night,” Pima County Sheriff’s Department spokesperson Kevin Adger to the LA Times.
“Detectives are looking into a possible kidnapping or abduction,” he added.
As The Daily Mail reported, Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos choked up and almost burst into tears Monday night when asked if he thought Nancy was still alive.
“Do you believe you are still looking for Nancy Guthrie alive at this point? That she could be held somewhere? And if so, do you believe that is local in the Tucson area, or that she’s been taken somewhere?” AZFamily host Briana Whitney asked.
An emotional Nanos stumbled on his words as he stated: “You know, we’re just not going to give up hope. We hope she’s out there somewhere.”
As The Gateway Pundit’s Cassandra MacDonald reported, Nancy Guthrie, the 84-year-old mother of NBC’s “Today” show anchor Savannah Guthrie, has been reported missing, and law enforcement described the scene they encountered at her Arizona home as “very concerning.”
Homicide detectives were sent in, which is not standard practice in a missing person case, and Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos said that the house is a crime scene.
“She did not leave on her own, we know that,” Nanos said during Sunday’s press conference.
Nancy Guthrie was last seen on Saturday night, at around 9:30 p.m., near where she lives in the Catalina Foothills.
She was reported missing on Sunday, around noon, by a relative.
Savannah Guthrie posted the following message on Instagram, where she asked for people to pray for her mother’s safe return.
“Thank you for lifting your prayers with ours for our beloved mom, our dearest Nancy, a woman of deep conviction, a good and faithful servant,” she wrote. “Raise your prayers with us and believe with us that she will be lifted by them in this very moment.”
Vorschau ansehenJean-Luc Mélenchon, leader the radical left La France Insoumise party via Wikimedia Commons
A political taboo long enforced across Europe fractured this week when French far-left leader Jean-Luc Mélenchon openly invoked the term “Great Replacement” during a municipal campaign event—language left-liberals, globalists, and pro-mass migration activists have spent years condemning as dangerous “conspiracy theory.”
Speaking in support of La France Insoumise (LFI) candidate François Piquemal, Mélenchon addressed critics on the conservative-nationalist right by declaring, “Yes, Mr. Zemmour, yes, Mr. Bayrou, there is a ‘Great Replacement.’” The remark stunned observers, given the French left’s long-standing effort to criminalize or censor the term.
Mélenchon, being the clever politician that he is, attempted to soften the impact by redefining the phrase as a matter of generational change rather than immigration. He said the “Great Replacement” simply described “a generation which comes after another,” calling it a natural process that has existed “since the dawn of time.”
Yet Mélenchon went further, explicitly linking the concept to his party’s political ambitions. He said upcoming municipal elections should demonstrate LFI’s ability to “embody the new France, that of the Great Replacement,” framing demographic transformation as an electoral asset rather than a concern.

Conservative figures immediately saw and highlighted the comments as a blatant admission. Reconquête founder Éric Zemmour said Sunday that Mélenchon had confirmed what critics have argued for years.
“He finally admits it,” Zemmour said. “La France Insoumise is the party of the Great Replacement.” Zemmour added that Mélenchon is openly staking his political future on immigrant-heavy urban districts.
National Rally president Jordan Bardella echoed the criticism, accusing Mélenchon of promoting “community fragmentation” and empowering political Islam under the banner of diversity.
Mélenchon, for his part, responded dismissively on social media, comparing demographic change to leadership succession. “Jean-Marie Le Pen was replaced by you,” he told Bardella, calling it “the mechanism of life.”
The controversy is not confined to France. Across Europe, left-wing parties that once denied demographic change are increasingly reframing it as inevitable—and desirable.
In Spain, leading figures from the radical-left Podemos party have made similar remarks. Senior Podemos politicians have spoken of Spain becoming a “plurinational” and “post-traditional” society, with some explicitly celebrating large-scale demographic transformation driven by mass immigration as a political necessity.
Last week, a video out of Spain, circulated widely online, drawing attention well beyond the country’s borders and reigniting debate over how parts of Europe’s radical left approach immigration policy. The clip has intensified claims that, for some political actors, migration is viewed not merely as a social issue but as a mechanism for long-term electoral change.
They are saying it out loud.
They want to replace citizens with foreigners so they can gain power.
Leftist Spanish MEP: “I hope for ‘replacement theory,’ I hope we can sweep this country of fascists and racists with immigrants.”pic.twitter.com/lIU7kNy3JT
One prominent Podemos figure previously described mass migration as essential to building a “new Spain,” remarks widely interpreted by critics as endorsing population replacement while dismissing native cultural continuity as obsolete.
The video features Irene Montero, a senior figure in Spain’s far-left Podemos, a former equality minister, and a current member of the European Parliament (MEP), speaking at a public event. In her remarks, Montero said she hoped immigration would help “sweep this country of fascists and racists,” language that critics say suggests an intent to reshape the electorate through demographic transformation.
After spreading on X, the footage quickly went viral, amassing more than five million views and becoming a flashpoint in wider European political discussion.
Like Mélenchon, Spain’s radical left has attempted to rebrand these statements as inclusive or progressive, while continuing to label critics as extremists or conspiracists.
The shift reflects a broader European trend: denial has given way to normalization. What was once dismissed outright is now being reinterpreted, repackaged, and integrated into campaign messaging—especially in urban districts transformed by decades of mass immigration.
For years, the phrase “Great Replacement” was treated as radioactive across Western politics. Journalists, academics, and politicians insisted demographic change was either imaginary or irrelevant. Now, leading figures on the left are openly discussing and celebrating it—while attempting to control the narrative.
Newly elected Democrat Governor Abigail Spanberger is poised to release a savage illegal alien convicted of brutally murdering his own infant sister, and she has no intention of handing him over to federal immigration authorities for deportation.
The monster in question is Alvaro Mejia-Ayala, a 21-year-old (now 22) Salvadoran national who, in September 2025, wrapped a charging cord around the neck of his helpless 8-month-old baby sister in Loudoun County.
The infant was found unresponsive, the white cable still constricting her tiny throat. Despite desperate medical efforts, she succumbed to her injuries days later, her young life extinguished in a fit of incomprehensible violence.
Court documents reveal the horror: Mejia-Ayala allegedly told a friend he was “playing” with his sister and “may have killed her” before fleeing the scene.
Police arrested him shortly after, charging him with strangulation — and later, murder — as the baby’s condition deteriorated and she passed away.
During a Fox News segment with Kayleigh McEnany, DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin described what she called a direct consequence of Virginia’s sanctuary-style policies following the transition away from cooperation with federal immigration enforcement.
Kayleigh McEnany: To get these immigrants out of the prisons—it is safer for everyone than street operations. So it seems like Spanberger… what, she didn’t get the memo?
Tricia McLaughlin: I guess she didn’t get the memo, because we had a great partnership with Glenn Youngkin and his team on the ground there to make sure that when these criminal illegal aliens who are in the jails, in their custody, once they serve their time, that we are notified and they can be turned over to ICE to be released back into their own country.
But, Kayleigh, I want to give you one example—and your viewers one example—of a direct response to this. There is an illegal alien that we arrested from El Salvador in September of last year. He was arrested for strangling, with an electric cord, his eight-month-old sister. Oh my goodness—she was killed.
Because of these policies—because of these new sanctuary city policies out of Virginia—once this individual serves his time, he will go back onto Virginia’s streets because we’re not allowed to be notified. That is absolutely heinous, and Virginians are going to be a lot less safe because of this policy.
Kayleigh McEnany: Tricia, that is insane, what you just told me. And I saw on your Twitter feed that in New York—this is just likewise insane—6,947 illegal aliens with criminal records were just let out onto the streets of New York, right behind me.
Tricia McLaughlin: That’s exactly right. And we saw the same out of Minneapolis, which, of course, we’re trying to solve for. I’m so glad that Tom Homan is on the ground there, trying to make what are really common-sense deals, because all we’re asking for is state and local cooperation.
I mean, just a couple more of these individuals that we’ve picked up off the street in the last few days, Kayleigh, out of Minneapolis: an individual from Laos, convicted of rape and sexual assault; an individual from Vietnam, convicted of sexual assault, homicide, and negligent manslaughter; another from Laos, convicted of homicide.
These are the people who’ve been walking around Minneapolis with impunity for the last few years, and who ICE—because we’re not allowed into those jails—has had to flood the zone to get these individuals out of the country. That’s what we’re doing in Minneapolis. That’s what we’re going to be doing in New York with those sanctuary city policies.
INSANE! Dem Gov. Abigail Spanberger is about to RELEASE this illegal alien monster who strangled his 8-month-old baby sister with a charging cord, WITHOUT handing him over to ICE!

Vorschau ansehenElon Musk doubles-down, calls out Mark Kelly for putting Urkaine before the US.
Under the direction of France’s globalist President Macron, French authorities escalated their confrontation with American tech entrepreneur Elon Musk this week, launching high-profile raids of X’s offices in Paris and summoning Musk himself for what prosecutors termed a “voluntary interview.”
The move marks a dramatic intensification of France’s long-running effort to rein in the America-based free-speech platform.
According to the Paris public prosecutor’s office, the operation was carried out by French cybercrime units with assistance from Europol, targeting the French premises of X. Authorities claim the investigation centers on whether X’s algorithm improperly influenced French political discourse.
Summonses were issued to Musk and former X CEO Linda Yaccarino, calling them to Paris in April 2026 to answer questions related to the probe. Yaccarino, who stepped down last year, is listed alongside Musk as a manager during the period under review.
The investigation was formally opened in January 2025 following complaints filed by French political figures aligned with President Emmanuel Macron’s globalist government. Chief among them was MP Éric Bothorel, who accused X of allowing too much ideological diversity and objected to Musk’s direct involvement in platform governance.
To critics of the French government, of which there is no shortage, that complaint alone revealed the true nature of the case—not criminal enforcement, but political retaliation.
Under Musk’s ownership, X has dismantled many of the vague content controls that once favored left-wing establishment narratives across Europe.
French prosecutors later broadened their inquiry, citing concerns related to X’s AI chatbot Grok, including claims it produced offensive or false content. Musk’s company responded by correcting errors, removing disputed posts, and publicly documenting its moderation actions—steps critics say would have been praised had they come from a European firm.
France’s legal framework, which criminalizes certain forms of speech, has long clashed with America’s First Amendment traditions. That tension now sits at the heart of the transatlantic standoff, as Paris seeks to apply its speech codes to a American-owned platform operating globally.
The timing has also raised eyebrows. The raid comes as right-wing, national-conservative, and anti-globalist parties continue gaining ground across Europe, often using X as a primary channel to bypass legacy media. For Macron’s government, controlling the digital battlefield is increasingly viewed as a political necessity.
Officials close to the investigation insist the probe is purely legal, yet the rhetoric surrounding it suggests otherwise. The Paris prosecutor’s office openly framed the case as ensuring X’s “compliance” with French law—language critics say sounds like ideological enforcement.
X’s leadership has rejected the allegations outright, calling the investigation “politically motivated” and warning that it risks setting a dangerous precedent for state-directed censorship. The company maintains it enforces clear, public rules while protecting open debate.
Washington has also weighed in. American officials previously warned that aggressive European enforcement against American tech firms could trigger retaliation, particularly if free expression is curtailed under the guise of digital regulation.
The European Union has separately launched its own inquiries into X, part of a broader regulatory push that disproportionately targets American platforms while leaving state-aligned European media largely untouched.
Macron’s government, already weakened by public backlash over immigration, economic stagnation, and unabashed top-down governance, now appears determined to silence platforms that refuse to follow the approved script. X’s openness has made it a focal point for dissent the French establishment no longer controls.

Federal agents with the FBI and the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department executed a dramatic early-morning raid on a residential property in northeast Las Vegas this weekend after investigators uncovered what appears to be a fully operational illegal biological laboratory inside a private home.
Refrigerators containing unknown liquids and vials of suspected biological material were found inside the residence, prompting an aggressive response from HazMat teams, SWAT units, and FBI specialists due to the potential threat presented by the materials, The Hill reported.
At least one individual was taken into custody in connection with the Las Vegas raid, identified by local officials as a 55-year-old property manager, Ori Solomon.
He is currently booked on felony charges linked to the improper disposal of hazardous waste, though investigators continue to determine the full scope of charges that may arise.
Property records reveal that the Las Vegas home is owned by “David Destiny Discovery, LLC,” according to The Sun.
If that name sounds familiar, it should. It is a shell company registered to Jia Bei Zhu (also known as David He), the very same Chinese national who ran the illegal Reedley, California biolab exposed in 2023.
Zhu, a fugitive from Canada with deep ties to the Chinese government, is currently in federal custody.
The FBI has taken the lead in analyzing the more than 1,000 samples collected from the scene, with evidence transported to federal laboratories for further testing.
Sheriff’s officials report that investigators are proceeding “methodically” to identify the substances and determine whether criminal activity involving biological agents is at play.
Rep. Kevin Kiley (R-CA) is already sounding the alarm, demanding immediate hearings.
“An illegal bio lab was just raided in Vegas. It is directly linked to the secret Chinese lab found in California in 2023, which was oozing with E. Coli, HIV, and Malaria. Congress must pass our bill to find these illegal labs and shut them all down,” Kiley wrote on X.

As The Gateway Pundit reported in 2023, an illegal bio lab was discovered in a believed-to-be vacant building in Reedley, California in Fresno County on March 3.
City code enforcement stumbled upon the building in December 2022 when they discovered a garden hose running up into the building through a hole in the wall. In March, they obtained a warrant to inspect the property, and in April, the Fresno County Department of Public Health ordered an inspection of the facility.
Investigators inspected the building that contained the lab in July and found a room used to make COVID-19 tests and pregnancy tests. They also found over 35 freezers and refrigeration units that contained “thousands of bodily fluids, serums, tissues, and other medical items.”
The company alleged to be running the lab, Prestige BioTech, is based out of Nevada and is the successor to Universal Meditech, Inc (UMI). In Dec. 2022, the FDA announced a recall over 56,000 “Skippack Medical Lab” Rapid Anti-Gen COVID-19 tests distributed by UMI to California and Texas.
Another representative of Prestige BioTech, David He, dodged questions regarding accountability and ownership of the company and whether or not they were properly disposing of the hundreds of dead mice. Prestige would not confirm if the biologics contained in the lab were theirs.
Prestige BioTech was able to operate 35 freezers and refrigeration devices without anyone questioning the electrical draw that would be required for a building that “was supposed to be vacant,” according to City Manager Nicole Zieba. When investigators entered the building on July 5th, however, the power to the refrigerators and freezers “was lost” but the biological samples were still frozen.
Court documents show that “48 containers (appx. 44 gallons per container) full of biological material and medical waste” were removed on one day followed by another 31 the next day for a total of 75 containers full of biological material and medical waste.
According to court documents reported by NBC News, “the other addresses provided for identified authorized agents were either empty offices or addresses in China that could not be verified.”
Recent findings indicate that Prestige Biotech, officially registered in Nevada, lacked authorization to operate in California.
City of Reedley code enforcement officials engaged with Xiuqin Yao, identified as the President of Prestige Biotech in emails and legal documents. Yao disclosed that the company was the primary creditor of Universal Meditech (UMI), Inc., a company that filed for bankruptcy. UMI had moved from Fresno to a warehouse in Reedley after an electrical fire and subsequently ceased operations. NBC News reports that Prestige Biotech was not only a creditor to UMI but was also named as its successor in legal filings.
A once-high-ranking executive at a major Chicago safety-net hospital has been taken into custody in Serbia, nearly two years after federal authorities accused him of orchestrating one of the biggest alleged COVID-19 fraud schemes in U.S. history.
Anosh Ahmed, the former chief financial officer of Loretto Hospital, was arrested in Belgrade on Nov. 30, 2025, according to court filings.
Ahmed, who fled the United States after facing initial fraud charges, now remains in Serbian custody as federal prosecutors prepare a formal extradition request.

JUST IN: U.S. healthcare exec Anosh Ahmed arrested in Serbia for $300 million Covid fraud scheme pic.twitter.com/NYgjIJvWUB
Per the latest court filing, the United States government first received notice of Ahmed’s arrest in Serbia on Nov. 30, 2025. Shortly after learning of his arrest, the American government told the eastern European country it intended to seek extradition and submitted a formal “extradition package” on Jan. 23.
U.S. officials said they learned on Dec. 30, 2025, that a Serbian court denied Ahmed’s petition to be released to a Belgrade hotel and ordered him to remain in Serbian custody.
As of now, Ahmed’s trial date is set for July 2026, though that’s subject to a pending request by Ahmed’s attorney to push the trial to September 2026, according to the filing.
Ahmed has been accused of orchestrating a “single, widespread scheme to submit more than $800 million in false claims to the United States Health Resources and Services Administration for reimbursement of COVID-19 testing of uninsured individuals,” the filing stated. The scheme unfolded from June 2021 through March 2022, according to the filing, which was submitted by the office of U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois Andrew Boutros.
As part of the scheme, Ahmed and others are accused of accessing personal data of more than 150,000 patients to get reimbursement for COVID-19 tests that were never administered.
Ahmed also came under controversy in the early days of the pandemic when vaccinations first began rolling out on a limited basis. Back in 2021, Ahmed and other Loretto Hospital execs held vaccination events at high-end locations, including watch dealers and Trump Tower in Chicago. That runs in contrast to Loretto’s mission as a safety-net hospital.
Another day, another socialist millionaire in Congress.
It turns out Ilhan Omar isn’t the only member of the far-left “Squad” getting rich while denouncing capitalism. New reports reveal that Massachusetts Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley has seen her family’s net worth explode since entering the swamp in 2018.
According to a bombshell report from Fox News, highlighted by Kayleigh McEnany and David Asman, the “anti-capitalist” Squad member has gone from a negative net worth when she was elected to holding assets worth up to $8 MILLION today.
Back in 2018, when Pressley first ran for Congress, her financial disclosures showed a negative net worth of around -$12,500 to modest figures, with limited assets.
Fast-forward to her 2024 disclosures (filed in 2025), and the picture is dramatically different: Pressley now reports assets valued between $1 million and $8 million, including a luxurious Martha’s Vineyard rental property worth up to $5 million and multiple Boston rental properties valued up to $1 million each.
In 2019, she only reported one Boston property. How does a congressional salary of $174,000 account for this massive windfall?
A key piece of the puzzle points directly to her husband, Conan Harris.
Just three days before Pressley was sworn into Congress in January 2019, Harris resigned from his $92,500-a-year position as a senior public safety adviser in then-Mayor Martin Walsh’s Boston City Hall administration.
He immediately launched his own consulting firm, Conan Harris & Associates.
Ethics experts raised red flags at the time, warning that the timing could create the appearance of profiting off Pressley’s rising political profile.
Harris, a convicted felon who served 10 years in prison for drug trafficking before turning his life around, cited the need for “professional flexibility” to support his wife’s career.
Yet his income reportedly tripled and more, reaching up to $350,000 by 2021 and even higher in subsequent years through consulting gigs with nonprofits, businesses, and organizations tied to government initiatives.
Pressley’s disclosures show the couple pulling in significant rental income, up to $350,000 in one recent year from property sales and rents, including from that posh Martha’s Vineyard home purchased in 2023.
While Pressley postures as a champion of the working class and demands rent relief for tenants, she’s quietly become a major landlord reaping capitalist profits.

Miami Mayor Eileen Higgins, the city’s first Democrat mayor in nearly three decades, openly declared her intention to hamstring cooperation with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and severely limit local enforcement of federal immigration laws, a move that will turn Miami into a sanctuary city by stealth.
Higgins, who defeated Trump-endorsed candidate Emilio Gonzalez, is wasting no time pushing a dangerous, open-borders agenda.
Speaking on “Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan” on CBS News Sunday, Higgins acknowledged that Miami is currently complying with Florida’s state-mandated cooperation with ICE, but made clear she intends to furl out that cooperation to the bare minimum.
Margaret Brennan: Mayor Higgins, nearly 7% of Florida is undocumented, according to you. In Miami, the police cooperate with ICE. But you, during your campaign, were very critical of that decision to cooperate. Can you change the policy without the governor being on board?
Mayor Eileen Higgins: The governor issued a requirement that local municipalities cooperate with ICE, and many municipalities, including the City of Miami, before I became mayor, signed that agreement. It is very difficult to unwind. It would take a vote of our city commission to do so.
So obviously, as mayor, I intend to comply with the law. And so what we have done in our 1,500-person police department is we have trained three individuals—should ICE call—who are able to answer that call and work with them. Obviously, we’re going to comply with the law, but we are not going to help beyond that.
Because in my community, in South Florida, we are the most affected. ICE and its tactics have been in my community for over a year. They have been causing great fear and terror among our residents. I cannot go anywhere without meeting someone—my brother, my uncle, my sister—“Alligator Alcatraz.” No sabemos dónde está. We don’t know where they have been taken. And that has been going on for months.
It is inhumane. It is cruel. I’m a Catholic. We can barely grapple with the lack of humanity around all this. And then what we have—very differently from any other community in Miami-Dade County, which we are part of—is that approximately 15% of our population has TPS.
So you’re talking Temporary Protected Status. You’re talking about between 250,000 and 300,000 individuals who have slowly but surely, as they’ve lost status, become overnight “illegals” in the eyes of the federal government.
And this enforcement in our Nicaraguan community, our Hondureño community, our Venezuelan community, has driven many people into hiding. Children are not going to school, and obviously ICE is deporting them.
Tuesday night, we face a very dire situation. Our Haitian community loses its access to TPS at midnight. Twenty percent of TPS recipients with Haitian status are in health care. On Wednesday, we are talking about nursing homes, home health care aides, hospitals, nurses, physician assistants—all of them are going to be out of a job when they wake up on Wednesday morning.
Margaret Brennan: Because their legal pathway and status are going to be revoked, and suddenly they become…
Mayor Eileen Higgins: —unnecessarily. Haiti is not safe. Venezuela is not safe. TPS should be extended immediately for Venezuelans. It was erased with a stroke of a pen. It could be put in place with a stroke of a pen.
TPS for Haitian immigrants should absolutely, positively be extended. Our economy is at stake, and our humanity is at stake.

Democrats love to brag about a win, but their human Ponzi scheme might be nearing a collapse.
They cling to isolated election results like life rafts, using them to convince themselves and others that all is well.
Even as Democrats celebrated a surprise state special election victory in Texas over the weekend, a far less friendly reality surfaced on far-left CNN.
That reality check came from Harry Enten, the network’s chief data analyst, who advised his Democratic viewers against reading too much into that and other recent victories.
Such wins might be comforting but are misleading, as presidential election years are the ones that see the major turnout.
“In politics, we often lose sight of the long term because we’re so focused in on the short term,” Enten said Sunday, while homing in on population trends.
CNN’s Harry Enten warns Democrats about a “blue state depression” that could make the math harder for them after 2030. pic.twitter.com/Ax2M0e2ih2
Those trends, he warned, should alarm Democrats and encourage Republicans because Americans are leaving blue states and moving to red ones.
Enten pointed out that the states experiencing the largest population gains since the 2020 Census are Texas, Florida, North Carolina, Georgia, and Arizona – all states that were carried by President Donald Trump in 2024.
At the same time, he noted what he described as a “blue state depression.”
That decline is driven mostly by residents fleeing Democratic strongholds like California, New York, Illinois, New Jersey, and Massachusetts – all states carried by Kamala Harris.
Apparently, productive residents leave when taxes are suffocating, crime is tolerated, housing is unattainable, and leaders are openly hostile to the actual people funding the system.
Why would anyone stay in a place that treats them like a problem when there are alternatives?
A Californian can move to Texas or Florida and immediately stop paying higher taxes to support bloated bureaucracies and failed social experiments.
Voters in Minnesota and other “blue wall” states are reaching similar conclusions as they watch their leaders’ priorities in the post-COVID era.
And according to Enten, the consequences go well beyond state politics. He explained that if current population trends hold through 2030, Democrats would lose seven seats in the U.S. House due to reapportionment.
Republican states would gain seven.
Then Enten made a point Democrats don’t want to hear.
Applying current population estimates to the Electoral College — in which a state’s number of votes depends on its number of representatives in the House and Senate — he explained that the traditional Democratic strategy no longer works.
Even if Democrats carried their base states plus Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, that path would fall short.
Under those estimates, Democrats would reach only 263 electoral votes, which is below the 270 needed to win.
The “blue wall,” as Enten showed, is no longer enough.
Democrats might be crazy, but those at the top aren’t as stupid as the party’s street thugs and understand this.
That is why their reaction to Trump’s immigration enforcement is so hysterical. Their long-term strategy is set.
They want to continue to replace lost residents with immigrants. Legal or illegal, the key is ensuring they are all counted in the next Census at least once.
People with the means to leave blue states are doing so in large numbers, and so Democrats rely on incoming numbers to stave off a collapse.
Years of failed leadership are finally catching up with them, and like with any Ponzi scheme, they constantly need new capital invested to stay afloat.
In this case, the capital is foreign nationals, and as long as enough of them keep coming, Democrats can afford to write the check for those leaving.

A Democratic member of Congress who was caught texting Jeffrey Epstein during a House hearing has had even more connections to Epstein exposed in the latest Epstein files document dump.
According to a series of 2014 emails, which came several years after Epstein’s Florida conviction on sex crimes, Democratic Delegate from the U.S. Virgin Islands Stacey Plaskett arranged to visit Epstein’s island, according to political news outlet NOTUS.
“Will you be able to meet with Jeffrey on his island on Monday Aug. 18th at 11 am?” an Epstein assistant asked Plaskett.
Plaskett was noted in the files touching base with Epstein again in 2017.
Epstein assistant Lesley Groff scheduled a “phone date” between Epstein and Plaskett.
In 2016, Groff wrote Plaskett that “Jeffrey has tried for you a few times on your cell but has been unsuccessful” and urged her to call him.
“Thanks. Spoke with him,” Plaskett responded five minutes later.
The newly released files showed Plaskett contacting Epstein to secure campaign donations in 2017 and 2018.
In September 2018, Plaskett texted Epstein, writing, “I know you’re tremendously busy. Thanks so much for taking time and sharing ideas and thoughts. I appreciate your support and hope I’m not presumptuous to consider you a friend,” according to the New York Post.
“Privileged to be called friend [sic],” he replied.
On May 13, 2019, Epstein wished Plaskett a happy birthday. She asked how he knew the date.
“You told me when you were in my office,” Epstein replied. She then reponed to him that, “You’re good.”
Epstein replied, “No I’m bad, but I’m thoughtful.”
The Washington Post reported last year that during a February 2019 hearing, Epstein texted Plaskett, writing “Great outfit”
“You look great,” he texted at 10:22 a.m. “Thanks!” she said in reply.
The Post said one minute after Plaskett was on TV making chewing motions, Epstein asked her, “Are you chewing[?]”
“Not any more,” she replied. “Chewing interior of my mouth. Bad habit from middle school”
One minute after Plaskett finished questioning former Trump attorney Michael Cohen at the hearing, Epstein wrote her, saying, “Good work.”
In November, the House held a vote on censuring Plaskett, but it failed.
“No one who turns to a convicted predator for input on how to conduct official business, especially in a congressional hearing, should sit on the Intelligence Committee or any committee, for that matter. This is about restoring trust in an institution that desperately needs it,” Republican Rep. Ralph Norman of South Carolina said in introducing his motion to censure Plaskett, according to Newsweek.
Vorschau ansehenTulsi Gabbard was seen outside the Fulton County Elections warehouse last week during the raid by federal agents.
After Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard was photographed in Fulton County during the execution of a search warrant for 2020 election evidence, several members of Congress began to call into question DNI Gabbard’s authority to be involved.
Senator Mark Warner, vice chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, “sharply criticized” the presence of the DNI in Fulton County. According to NBC News:
Warner said there were only two explanations for national intelligence director’s trip: either Gabbard believed the case had a link to foreign intelligence, and she failed to abide by her legal obligation to inform congressional committees about it, or she was tarnishing the nonpartisan reputation of the intelligence agencies with a “domestic political stunt designed to legitimize conspiracy theories that undermine our democracy.”
“Either scenario,” Warner added, “represents a serious breach of trust and a dereliction of duty to the solemn office which she holds.”
According to The Democracy Docket, David Becker, the founder of the Center for Election Innovation and Research (CEIR), told reporters last week:
“The Office of the Director of National Intelligence has no domestic responsibilities. There is no reason for the director of national intelligence to be in any kind of voting site. She has neither the authority nor the competence to assess anything in that voting site. And so it’s incredibly troubling to see something like that.”
CEIR received over $65 million in “Zuckerbucks” during the 2020 election. Becker is also the co-founder of the Electronic Registration and Information Center, a non-profit that has been tasked with maintaining voter rolls for more than a dozen states.
DNI Gabbard posted on Monday evening that, "Contrary to the blatantly false and slanderous accusations being made against me by Members of Congress and their friends in the propaganda media, the Office of Director of National Intelligence has and will continue to take action under my statutory authorities to secure our nation and ensure the integrity of our elections," followed by screen shots of a letter to Congress.

"My presence was requested by the President and executed under my broad statutory authority to coordinate, integrate, and analyze intelligence related to election security, including counterintelligence (CI), foreign and other malign influence and cybersecurity. The FBI's intelligence/Counterintelligence divisions are one of the 18 elements that I oversee," Gabbard wrote.
"In twelve FBI Field Offices across the country, including the Atlanta Field Office, the senior FBI official (Assistant Director in Charge or Special Agent in Charge) is dual-hatted as my Domestic DNI-Representative. The Domestic DNI-Rep program was established in 2011 through a Memorandum of Understanding between the ODNI and the FBI."
DNI Gabbard said that the ODNI's Office of General Counsel found her actions "to be consistent and well within my statutory authorities as the Director of National Intelligence."
The letter than provides answers to questions raised assumedly by Congress:
Election Security is a National Security Issue
In response, DNI Gabbard states that, "The President and his Administration are committed to safeguarding the integrity of U.S. elections to ensure that neither foreign nor domestic powers undermine the American people's right to determine who our elected leaders are."
"As I publicly highlighted on 10 April 2025, ODNI has been actively reviewing intelligence reporting and assessments on election integrity since I took office," Gabbard writes. "As part of the National Counterintelligence and Security Center's responsibility to lead, manage, and coordinate counterintelligence matters related to elections security, NCSC personnel travelled with me to Fulton County to support this effort." She mentions that they were not present for the execution of the warrant.
The Director of National Intelligence has Broad Authority to Coordinate, Integrate, and Analyze Intelligence Related to Election Security.
DNI Gabbard states that, "To preserve the integrity of our elections, we must understand whether there has been foreign or other malign interference in our elections" and whether vulnerabilities exist for possible future exploitation.
Citing Section 102A of the National Security Act of 1947, Gabbard claims she "robust authority to coordinate and integrate national intelligence," including having "access to all national intelligence (consistent with other law), as well as the authority to establish objectives, priorities, and guidance for the IC to ensure timely and effective collection, processing, analysis and dissemination of national intelligence."
Further, "Section 6508 of the National Defense Authorization Act of 2020 provides for the designation of a National Counterintelligence Officer within the NCSC to lead, manage, and coordinate CI matters related to election security."
Gabbard also invokes Executive Order 13848, originally signed by President Trump in September 2018 and extended by Joe Biden in September 2022. This Executive Order "tasked DNI with assessing foreign interference after every federal election."
ODNI Will Not Irresponsibly Share Incomplete Intelligence Assessments Concerning Foreign or Malign Interference in U.S. Elections
"As I publicly stated on 10 April 2025, there is information and intelligence reporting suggesting that electronic voting systems being used in the United States have long been vulnerable to exploitation that could result in enabling determined actors to manipulate the results of the votes being cast with the intent to change the outcome of an election," Gabbard wrote.
She wrote that, "Searching through intelligence holdings and conducting assessments with analytic rigor and excellence is an arduous and often time-consuming process," but ensures that the process makes a work product that is "independent of political considerations and based on all available sources."
Lastly, DNI Gabbard ends by citing Section 501(a)(2) of the National Security Act of 1947, specifically that the President does not need to obtain Congressional approval before initiating a significant intelligence activity and that Gabbard is not aware of the contents of the warrant or evidence of probable cause because the search warrant was issued "under seal."
Video posted by Real America’s Voice reporter Brian Glenn shows a mob of Hays Consolidated School District students in the Austin, Texas suburb of Kyle, savagely beating a man Glenn reported to be a teacher during an anti-ICE class walkout protest on campus Monday. (UPDATE: Glenn has retracted his report the man is a teacher, more at end of article.)
The video shows the man being swarmed by boys and girls who beat on him, chase him to his pickup truck, throw things at him and scream vile insults.
One person in the mob was wearing a black shirt with the message, “Kill Your Local Pedophile.” Another, apparently a fellow teacher who tried intervene, was wearing a black shirt with the message, “Choose Kindness Always.”

Statement Regarding Hays CISD Student Protests
Today students from Hays CISD campuses staged protests by walking out of classes and their respective school buildings. These protests were not condoned by the district, nor did the district enable the behavior. The district must recognize the right of students who did not protest to have disruption-free environments and protected classroom instruction time. Students who chose to participate in the walkouts did so on their own accord and classes continued for students who did not participate.
Skipping Class Not Allowed in Hays CISD
Leaving class without permission or skipping class is against the rules in Hays CISD. Additionally, the district has policies and procedures in place that govern when campuses can be used for non-school activities. Many of these rules were violated by those who chose to protest. Accordingly, students who left campus without permission during the school day will receive unexcused absences and face other potential, applicable disciplinary action.
Safety is Priority
In addition to protecting instruction time, safety is a paramount consideration for students while at school. Teachers and campus administrators who were not teaching class at the time of the protests did monitor the protestors while they were on campus in an effort to preserve order and security. It is the district’s understanding that local law enforcement officers assisted in monitoring protesting students who chose to march off of district property – also to make sure students remained safe.
Hays CISD Does Not Participate in Political Activity
As a governmental entity that serves tens of thousands of citizens with a vast array of political opinions and views; Hays CISD recognizes that the district belongs to everyone and consistently maintains neutrality in matters that are politically charged. The district does this because it is required by law, but also because it is the right thing to do. While individuals within the system retain a right to their own beliefs on their own time; as an entity, the district does not take a stand. It is important to note that the hardworking and professional campus and district staff and administrators in Hays CISD recognize this. They are tasked with many difficult things in their profession, including – from time to time – addressing student protests. These dedicated staff members are not politicians. They have no need for and don’t seek votes or campaign contributions; nor are they ever up for election.
Freedom of Expression
Though the district takes a strong stance on the integrity of the instructional day, it is not void of understanding the current climate in the country and can respect that some students may feel compelled to exercise their constitutional rights to free speech and expression. Sometimes, individuals feel so motivated to express their views that, upon weighing the potential consequences of breaking the rules, they are willing to accept the ramifications of their actions. In a precedent setting 1969 Supreme Court decision (Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District), the court recognized that students in public schools retain their First Amendment rights concluding, “It can hardly be argued that either students or teachers shed their constitutional rights to freedom of speech or expression at the schoolhouse gate.”
The district hopes that all students, regardless of their positions on the issues or choices whether to participate in the protests, will use this as a learning opportunity to better understand their rights and freedoms, and the responsibilities that accompany them.
The Kyle Police Department said there were two arrests made during the protest, but not apparently involving the attack on the teacher:
This afternoon, we were made aware of student-led walkouts taking place at multiple Hays CISD campuses. Approximately 500 students made their way to the downtown area. Our officers were present on the scene to monitor traffic and pedestrian safety.
During the demonstration, officers observed a minor in possession of alcohol, resulting in the arrest of two juveniles.
One juvenile was charged with assault on a public servant, resisting arrest, interfering with public duties, consumption, and possession of alcohol by a minor. The other juvenile was charged with resisting arrest and interfering with public duties. Additional charges may be forthcoming.
We are aware of concerns that these arrests were related to the walkout activity; however, we would like to clarify that they are unrelated.
This afternoon at about 1:30pm, the Buda Police Department was notified by a Hays County Sheriff’s Office School Resource Officer at Moe and Gene Johnson High School in Buda that students were conducting a “walk out” protest on RM967.
Law Enforcement personnel with the Buda Police Department, Hays County Sheriff’s Office, and Hays County Constable’s Office, PCT. 5 responded to the area in order to provide safety and security for pedestrians and motorists. Buda officers responded to traffic issues and minor vehicle accidents in the area.
Just before 3:00pm, Buda officers were dispatched to the intersection of RM967 and FM1626 for a fight in progress. Upon arrival, officers were notified that a female juvenile on the sidewalk and an adult male in a vehicle were engaged in a verbal argument. The argument escalated into a physical altercation involving multiple people. Both primary parties involved were identified and the situation remains under investigation. No arrests have been made at this time.
Buda Police were notified that students from Moe and Gene Johnson High School were holding a protest at RM 967.

Note: The man in the video has yet to be officially identified as a teacher. Brian Glenn, who said he was told the man is a teacher, has not reported otherwise since his initial reporting.
A reader forwarded a Reddit video post claiming the man was the aggressor.

President Donald Trump announced on Monday that the United States and India reached a trade agreement, which will lower the tariff rate on goods coming into the U.S. to 18 percent.
In exchange, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has agreed that his country will stop buying Russian oil and will make a $500 billion investment in various U.S. industries and products.
CNN reported that the 18 percent tariff is down from 50 percent, which had included a 25 percent reciprocal tariff that Trump put in place in August to encourage India to stop buying Russian oil.
“It was an Honor to speak with Prime Minister Modi, of India, this morning,” Trump posted Monday on Truth Social. “He is one of my greatest friends and, a Powerful and Respected Leader of his Country. We spoke about many things, including Trade, and ending the War with Russia and Ukraine. He agreed to stop buying Russian Oil, and to buy much more from the United States and, potentially, Venezuela.”
The president argued that taking oil revenue away from Moscow will help end the Russia-Ukraine war sooner.
Trump continued, “Out of friendship and respect for Prime Minister Modi and, as per his request, effective immediately, we agreed to a Trade Deal between the United States and India, whereby the United States will charge a reduced Reciprocal Tariff, lowering it from 25% to 18%.”
“They will likewise move forward to reduce their Tariffs and Non Tariff Barriers against the United States, to ZERO. The Prime Minister also committed to ‘BUY AMERICAN,’ at a much higher level, in addition to over $500 BILLION DOLLARS of U.S. Energy, Technology, Agricultural, Coal, and many other products,” the president wrote.
— Commentary Donald J. Trump Posts From Truth Social (@TrumpDailyPosts) February 2, 2026
Modi responded to Trump’s decision, “Wonderful to speak with my dear friend President Trump today. Delighted that Made in India products will now have a reduced tariff of 18%. Big thanks to President Trump on behalf of the 1.4 billion people of India for this wonderful announcement.”
“When two large economies and the world’s largest democracies work together, it benefits our people and unlocks immense opportunities for mutually beneficial cooperation,” the prime minister added.
“President Trump’s leadership is vital for global peace, stability, and prosperity. India fully supports his efforts for peace,” Modi said.
Wonderful to speak with my dear friend President Trump today. Delighted that Made in India products will now have a reduced tariff of 18%. Big thanks to President Trump on behalf of the 1.4 billion people of India for this wonderful announcement.
CNN reported that India has been the second largest purchaser of Russian oil behind China, with Turkey a distant third.
In December 2025, China purchased 47 percent of Russia’s oil exports compared to India’s 38 percent. Turkey and the European Union bought at 6 percent each, according to the Center for Research on Energy and Clean Air.
There is a trade imbalance between the U.S. and India: the U.S. imported $95.5 billion in goods from India and exported $42 billion to India in 2025 as of November, according to the Census Bureau.
CNN noted, “Among the top goods the US imported from India last year are computers and other electronics, such as phones, pharmaceuticals, apparel and chemicals. Jewelry prices in the United States have risen in recent months in part because of tariffs on India. Meanwhile, India’s top imports from the US were oil, gas, airplanes and airplane parts.”
Amy Hariani, an international trade lawyer and adviser on U.S.–India commercial relations, said in an e-mail to Politico regarding the agreement, “The tariff reduction from 25% to 18% matters, but the bigger story is that two major democracies worked through real differences and chose economic alignment in a complex geopolitical environment.”
She added, “Credit is due to President Trump and Prime Minister Modi for providing political direction, and to officials like [U.S. Trade Representative] Jamieson Greer and their teams who tirelessly saw this through.”
Rep. Anna Paulina Luna revealed that Senate leadership is moving toward nuking the so-called “Zombie Filibuster” and restoring an old-school standing filibuster to advance the SAVE America Act, legislation that requires proof of U.S. citizenship to vote.
According to Luna, John Thune signaled after a meeting with Donald Trump that the Senate is prepared to bring the SAVE Act to the floor without the modern, abuse-ridden 60-vote blockade.
Under a standing filibuster, senators who want to delay a bill must actually stand, speak, and debate. Once debate ends, only 50 votes are needed for passage.
That’s how the filibuster was supposed to work, before Washington elites turned it into a “zombie” rule that lets senators kill bills without even showing up.
Luna:Based on our discussion right now, we’re moving toward it. Also, we got assurances on the standing filibuster, which is highly important. I don’t know if you guys remember when I was talking about inherent content— a lot of people didn’t know what that was.
The standing filibuster is an old-school parliamentary procedure, but it’s a way to break through what we consider traditional norms to get voter ID passed. I think it’s brilliant that they came up with it, and that’s exactly why we’ve had these discussions and are very happy with the outcome. There should be a standing filibuster announced soon, and I would actually reach out to Senator Thune’s office to ask him about that, because they have different goals…

The SAVE America Act would require proof of U.S. citizenship to vote in federal elections — a position backed by overwhelming public support.
Despite that, Democrats have threatened to shut down the government rather than allow a vote.
Senate Democrat Leader Chuck Schumer has openly warned he will force an “extended government shutdown” if the SAVE Act reaches the Senate floor.
“I have said it before and I’ll say it again, the SAVE Act would impose Jim Crow type laws to the entire country and is dead on arrival in the Senate. It is a poison pill that will kill any legislation that it is attached to. If House Republicans add the SAVE Act to the bipartisan appropriations package it will lead to another prolonged Trump government shutdown,” Schumer said.
BREAKING: Chuck Schumer just announced he will FORCE an “extended government shutdown” if the SAVE Act—requiring proof of citizenship to vote—comes to the Senate
Dems KNOW they will NEVER win an election again if only citizens vote.
“We need to get the Government open, and I hope all Republicans and Democrats will join me in supporting this Bill, and send it to my desk WITHOUT DELAY,” Trump said.
“There can be NO CHANGES at this time… but we cannot have another long, pointless, and destructive Shutdown that will hurt our Country so badly.”
House Speaker Mike Johnson echoed confidence that Republicans will move the funding bill forward, saying, “We’ll get it done by tomorrow.”
As pressure mounts, 35 Members of Congress have formally demanded that Mitch McConnell stop blocking the SAVE Act from advancing out of the Senate Rules Committee.
Rep. Brandon Gill summed it up bluntly on X:
“83% of Americans want proof of citizenship to vote, yet the Senate has done nothing for 300 days. The House did its job. The Senate needs to do theirs.”
I just sent a letter to Mitch McConnell asking his committee to stop stalling the SAVE Act.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche fired Ed Martin as Chief of the Justice Department’s Weaponization Working Group, according to investigative reporter Paul Sperry.
Last May President Trump tapped Ed Martin to be the US Pardon Attorney after RINO Senator Tillis derailed his nomination for DC US Attorney. He was also named by Trump to serve as the Justice Department’s Director of the Weaponization Working Group.
On Monday it was reported that Ed Martin was removed from his role as Chief of Weaponization at the DOJ.
A DOJ spokesperson said Ed Martin is still at the Department as the Pardon Attorney.
DAG Blanche reportedly removed Ed Martin and ended the Weaponization Working Group on New Year’s Eve.

News of Todd Blanche’s reported firing of Ed Martin comes after rumors about a rift between the two.
Last year it was reported by the liberal media that Todd Blanche was overseeing a probe into Ed Martin’s conduct related to the Adam Schiff mortgage fraud investigation.
It was later reported that Ed Martin was not under investigation.
President Trump on Monday slammed Grammys host Trevor Noah and doubled down on his threat to sue him for falsely accusing him of being a pedophile and partying with Jeffrey Epstein, Bill Clinton, and underage girls.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Noah attacked Trump on Sunday during the annual Grammy Award ceremony, saying that he hung out on Epstein Island with Bill Clinton.
President Trump responded on Sunday night, trashing the entire ceremony, which was heavily anti-ICE and anti-Trump, and threatening to sue the “poor, pathetic, talentless, dope of an M.C.,” Trevor Noah, for his comments about Trump on Epstein Island.
Trump on Monday confirmed his plans to sue Noah, calling him “terrible” and a “lightweight.” He said, “I thought he did a terrible job at the Grammys. I thought the whole Grammys was terrible,” slamming the Grammy award ceremony as “not watchable.”
“He was a lousy host. I’d say, not as bad as Jimmy Kimmel, but pretty close,” Trump added.
He further called out Bill Clinton and Bill Gates, who were deeply embedded in Epstein’s sex trafficking ring. Then, he noted that Epstein was working with “sleazebag” Michael Wolff, whom he also plans to sue for “conspiring with Epstein to do harm to me.” As The Gateway Pundit reported, Wolff, infamous for his error-riddled “Fire and Fury” book that painted a sensationalized and widely debunked portrait of Trump’s White House, encouraged convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein to blackmail then-presidential candidate Donald Trump during the 2016 election cycle, according to newly released emails.
“The Democrats are pushing it, and the problem is that it’s turning out to be the Democrats that were with and conspired with Epstein. So, I think you’re probably going to see a little pullback from them, but think of it, they were working together to try and help me lose the election. But this is the Oval Office, so I guess that didn’t work out too well,” Trump said.
WATCH:
Reporter: Are you going to sue Trevor Noah? Last night in a post, you alluded that something could become—
Trump: Yeah, well, he said that, he said that I spent time on Jeffrey’s, Jeffrey Epstein’s, Island. I didn’t, I mean, he’s a lightweight. This guy, he’s a terrible— I think he’s terrible. I thought he did a terrible job at the Grammys. I thought the whole Grammys was terrible. I watched part of it. It’s not watchable.
But he was a lousy host. I’d say, not as bad as Jimmy Kimmel, but pretty close. And no, he made a statement about me and Jeffrey Epstein. I had nothing to do with that. I have nothing to do with Jeffrey Epstein. And in fact, if you look at the DOJ, they announced, you know, they released 3 million pages. It’s like, this is all they’re supposed to be doing. And frankly, the DOJ, I think, should just say, “we have other things to do,” because that whole thing has turned out, I mean, other than Bill Clinton and, you know, Bill Gates and lots of people that have— there are a lot of questions about it, but nothing on me.
But it was even sort of better than that because they found that Jeffrey Epstein and this sleazebag writer named Michael Wolff were conspiring against Donald Trump to lose the election. So, Epstein was conspiring with a writer for me to lose the election. So, right there, you know that I had nothing to do with this guy, but yeah, it’s a terrible thing, the amount of time that’s being wasted.
You know, when Epstein was alive, like 10 years ago, nobody cared about him, but they’re only doing it, but now it’s really hitting back on them because Bill Clinton is such a big part of it. The Democrats are pushing it, and the problem is that it’s turning out to be the Democrats that were with and conspired with Epstein. So, I think you’re probably going to see a little pullback from them, but think of it, they were working together to try and help me lose the election. But this is the Oval Office, so I guess that didn’t work out too well.
Throughout the night at the Grammys, Americans were lectured by woke Hollywood stars about how awful ICE is.
Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny, the anti-Trump, America-hating 2026 Super Bowl halftime act, followed the lead of his owners and also used his acceptance speech to trash ICE.
The lovefest honeymoon for radical socialist NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani appears to already be over after just a month in office.
As New York tries to recover from a record storm, the streets are still a mess a week later, and celebrities in the city are taking to social media to blast the mayor.
Actor Michael Rapaport took to Instagram and shared a video of the still towering mounds of dirty snow.
” A week after the snowstorm and this is what we got Zoron the Shoveler! Filthy black snow, garbage soup, ice rinks on every corner, cars buried like fossils.”
Even actress Debra Messing, who has made no secret of her far-left views, slammed the city’s failure under Mamdani’s leadership.
“Sitting in a taxi trying to get to an appointment,” she shared on X. “Should take 20 minutes, we are at an hour and ten minutes and counting. The streets are a disaster. It hasn’t snowed in 5 days and the streets still haven’t been cleared. Poor ambulance sitting in aessentially a parking lot with sirens going. I’m praying for the person needing emergency care.”
“I’ve lived here for 15 years (this go around) and this has never happened. The plows have always worked around the clock to get the city back to working.”
“I wonder what happened?”
“Hang in there New Yorkers.”

If Mamdani thinks the failure to plow the city is a minor blip that will be forgotten, he might want to take a look at what happened to former Chicago Mayor Michael Bilandic. His failure to lead during the blizzard of ’79 cost him the election.
Primary challenger Jane Byrne capitalized on his failure to address the anger and, after winning the primary, she replaced Bilandic as mayor.
“Bilandic’s blizzard” is a cautionary tale in Chicago politics, and subsequent mayors since have treated snow removal as a high-stakes priority to avoid a similar fate.
Mamdani also faced criticism over the weekend for his slow pace in fulfilling his campaign promises. Protestors swarmed outside Gracie Mansion, the official mayoral residence in Carl Schurz Park, and shared their disappointment.
Protesters shouted through a megaphone, “We was with you, Zohran! We voted for you, Zohran! We advocated for you, Zohran!” He continued, “You ain’t did nothing but get up in there and lie to us! You lied, Zohran! Shame, Zohran!”
