https://aflegal.org/press-release/america-first-legal-supports-dhs-initiative-to-stop-the-widespread-issuance-of-work-permits-to-illegal-aliens/
America First Legal (AFL) has submitted a comment to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), in support of a proposed rule that would tighten eligibility requirements for work permits granted to certain aliens, including parolees, recipients of deferred action, and aliens released under supervision despite a final order of removal.
he proposed rule would also make clear that work authorization will not be available, absent significant countervailing public interests, for aliens who have been arrested, indicted, or convicted of a criminal act, admitted to violent or dangerous conduct, or affiliated with a gang or terrorist organization.

Specifically, AFL argues that the district court’s order makes challenges to the census virtually impossible. Congress gave a broad array of people, including U.S. Senators and U.S. Representatives, a cause of action to challenge the lawfulness of the census. Through their rulings, courts have essentially eviscerated this right to sue. AFL also argues that the “actual enumeration” contemplated by Article I, Section 2 of the U.S. Constitution ceases to have meaning due to the current methods employed by the U.S. Census Bureau and allowed by the courts.

Trump denies ‘fake news’ that he’s unhappy with Hegseth
Hegseth has been in the crosshairs of left-wing critics of his social policies in the military and of right-wing critics over his prosecution of the Iran war. The Fake News, as usual, is spreading false and completely unfounded rumors. I am extremely happy with the job that Pete Hegseth is doing,” he posted on Truth Social.

El-Sayed’s Michigan Victory: The Communist, Antisemitic Takeover of the Democrat Party Is No Longer an Aberration
Although Republicans think El-Sayed will be defeated in November I find this DSA trend solidly entrenched within the walls of the Democrat Party to be beyond alarming. It is no longer an aberration.

Democrats Boycott Explosive Senate Hearing on Muslim Brotherhood Network’s Growing Grip on America
Senator Ted Cruz: Now let’s look at the Muslim Brotherhood Network today and its influence in the United States today. In fact, just yesterday, Abdul El-Sayed, the son-in-law of a leading member of several brotherhood groups, won Michigan’s Democrat primary for US Senate. Perfect timing for this hearing. Probably explains why no Democrats are here and none intend to attend because their campaign is now openly embracing terrorist organizations waging war on America.
