Four more Portland Antifa riot suspects have been federally charged over the ongoing insurrection against the ICE facility. This brings the total federally charged so far to 17, devastating the numbers Antifa need to attack the building night after night. The cases are not being dropped immediately. Dozens of local Antifa riot cases have also not been dropped by the moderate DA Nathan Vasquez.

On Wednesday, a judge dismissed a petition filed by the Boulder terror attack suspect’s family, which will ultimately allow their deportation process to continue. The U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas on Wednesday dismissed a petition for the release of the family of Mohamed Sabry Soliman, who is accused of attacking a group of peaceful protesters in Boulder in June.

#ArmyOfParents #IStandWithRiley @ArmyOfParents. Who in Northern Virginia has children at @NysmithSchool for the gifted? If you do, you need to demand the resignation of the headmaster or pull your children out immediately. The rapid rise of antisemitism has emboldened antisemites, who are singing the praises of Hitler and targeting Jewish students. This is not only disgusting, but a blatant violation of civil rights. @JasonMiyaresVA MUST address this immediately and @GovernorVA MUST condemn the actions of Nysmith School. @EndAntisemetism @StandWithUs @JCRCgw @Yael4Hanover @KatzForChair @WMALDC @JulieGunlock @LarryOConnor @ChrisPlanteShow @marklevinshow @wapo @dcexaminer Quote: Marina Medvin 🇺🇸 @MarinaMedvin · Jul 1.

On Wednesday, January 18, I received an e-mail from someone identifying himself as “Ahmed.” He wrote to me that he was a “Muslim activist” and that he wanted me to come on his radio show to discuss my work, or, in his words, “to give [my] side of the story.” In doing a simple web search on his e-mail address, it turned out that this individual was none other than the Director of Communications for the Chicago chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), Ahmed Rehab. While I didn’t know his motives in contacting me, I had recalled when...

A radicalized operative—Alexander R. Wick, 38, of Portland, nonbinary activist, ANTIFA recruiter, and CEO of a far-left climate tech front company, Cascadia Carbon Inc.—was arrested for attempting to detonate an improvised explosive device (IED) on Interstate 5, one of the nation’s most critical highways. This wasn’t a spontaneous act. This was an orchestrated act of domestic sabotage tied directly to the radical Left’s foot soldiers—trained, funded, and protected by the same global elite who are panicking under the leadership of President Donald J. Trump, now restored as Commander-in-Chief after defeating Biden in the rigged 2024 election. Let’s break it...

The mullahs threatened they could awaken terrorist “sleeper cells” in the U.S. should we attack them. Well, now we have attacked them—in extraordinary fashion, no less—and multiple cities are on heightened alert for possible violent responses.What if some potential terrorists were let in by an administration that refused to police its borders or deal with illegal immigrants? That could very well be the case, because former President Joe Biden’s regime encountered thousands of Iranian nationals at the border during his term—and let over 700 of them loose.The numbers are sobering. Look at how they got worse each year as Biden...

Toll from Tehran’s terrorism and proxy attacks are a serious factors in Trump’s decision on whether to support or even join the Israeli war effort. Three years after 19 Americans died in a bombing at a Saudi Arabian apartment complex, then-President Bill Clinton sent a cable that told Iran’s president a secret that the 42nd president wasn’t even willing to tell the American public: U.S. intelligence had ample evidence that Tehran was behind the deadly Khobar Towers terror attack. “Message to President Khatami from President Clinton: The United States Government has received credible evidence that members of the Iranian Revolutionary...

For political junkies who cut their teeth on “60 Minutes,” “Meet the Press,” CNN, and Fox News, longform podcasts were a godsend. Finally freed of commercial restraints and surface-level superficialities, longform podcasts took you beyond the talking points, treating audiences to a deep dive of a topic’s intricacies. Even when the podcast host had limited knowledge of the subject matter (Joe Rogan, I’m looking at you), the benefit of the longform platform was that it facilitated an open-ended, free-floating conversation where both sides learned more about the other. But there was an important catch: It only worked when both sides...
