A father threw his eight-month-old son against a wall during a fit brought on by an NBA videogame. Jalin White, 20, admitted to the act last week, in the wake of his child abuse arrest. The now-hospitalized youngster is not expected to live, meaning White may soon be charged with homicide. What predated the fit of rage made it even more disturbing - with cops revealing it was a game of 2K that set him off. Down two points in the fourth quarter, the defendant became frustrated while holding the baby, a criminal plaint states - describing how the dad...

Ilhan Omar uses expletive against pro-Israel protesters. Minnesota lawmaker uses expletive in response to pro-Israel protesters on Capitol Hill who called her out for her refusal to condemn Hamas and demanded that she “go to Gaza.”

While everyone is excited by President-elect Trump that he would like to see a national concealed carry reciprocity bill passed, let us remember that this is not how we make laws, rather it is Congress' job. Washington Gun Law President, William Kirk, discusses the good news as there is already a piece of legislation, sponsored by Thomas Massie, which would do exactly that. And now that the GOP is in control why not get this bill passed into law?

Rep. Josh Schriver @JoshuaSchriver Around 3:30 PM, I dropped by the Michigan Elections Department to download the 11/14/24 Qualified Voter File. As a Michigan Lawmaker, I need this right now to inform an Election Law I’m drafting. I learned they’ve been gone since 11/4/24. No one knows when they’ll be back?

On December 9 and 10, 2016, the New York Times and the Washington Post independently reported that anonymous senior intelligence officials had told them that, based on intercepted communications, the intelligence agencies agreed that Russia had hacked the Democratic National Committee to help Donald Trump win the election. Their evidence was the fact of their access to U.S communications intelligence. A flood of subsequent stories also cited allegations by “senior intelligence officials” that “intercepted communications” and “intercepted calls” showed that “members of Donald J. Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign and other Trump associates had repeated contacts with senior Russian intelligence officials...

Bucks County commissioners voted to count ballots lacking proper signatures, violating a Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruling earlier this year. The three-member board voted two to one to count these illegal ballots in the Senate race recount. “I think we all know that precedent by a court doesn't matter anymore in this country, and people violate laws anytime they want,” Diane Marseglia said. “So for me, if I violate this law, it's because I want a court to pay attention to it.” Board chairman Robert Harviie, Jr., joined Marseglia in voting to accept the ballots that voters signed in one section...

Admitting to breaking the law just before Donald Trump takes over the Department of Justice is a choice, and it was one made by two Pennsylvania election officials in Bucks County, PA. In a shocking video, Democrat Commissioner Diane Marseglia can heard proclaiming that she's going to purposefully ignore multiple court rulings to count illegal votes. At the center of this is a contentious Senate race in which Republican Dave McCormick defeated Democrat incumbent Sen. Bob Casey. Yet, Democrats in Pennsylvania continue to try to manufacture votes to flip the result. If you want to know what rigging an election...

The Brief A shadow cabinet is a team from the opposition party – in this case, the Democrats – that mirrors Cabinet members in the incoming ruling party, i.e. Republicans. It’s the standard in the UK and Canada, but could it work in the U.S.? With Donald Trump taking back the White House, a Democratic congressman is calling for America to borrow from the British and appoint a shadow cabinet to "fight back" against Trump’s agenda. Rep. Wiley Nickel, D-North Carolina, first shared his thoughts on a shadow cabinet in an op-ed published in The Washington Post. In an interview...

The key figure in a Justice Department investigation into sex trafficking allegations involving Matt Gaetz told the House Ethics Committee that the former congressman had sex with her when she was 17 years old, according to a report. The woman, who is now in her 20s, was subpoenaed by the ethics panel over the summer and testified that Gaetz had sex with her when she was a minor and still in high school, ABC News reported on Thursday. The Florida Republican vehemently denied the allegations. “These allegations are invented and would constitute false testimony to Congress,” Gaetz said in a...

The public murder of Matt Gaetz begins. In 2020, it was first reported that popular MAGA Rep. Matt Gaetz was involved in a sex-trafficking scandal. The bogus allegation arose in 2020 and was pushed continuously by the far-left mainstream media. Months later, in February 2023, the Merrick Garland Department of Justice decided not to charge Matt Gaetz in the sensationalized sex-scandal probe. The investigation originally stemmed from allegations that Rep. Gaetz was had a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old girl. The DOJ investigated the accusations but decided against pressing charges....

Frank Sinatra is an icon. He left such a massive imprint on the world of music and movies that there's no doubt life would be very different had he never gone into the entertainment business. Sinatra also had a major impact on many restaurants and food companies, essentially catapulting them into the spotlight merely by eating at an establishment or carrying a drink onstage with him.
