When the government fails to secure unalienable rights, they no longer have authority to govern. Most of the media talk is about the FBI raid on Trump's Mar-a-Lago, another attack which will live in infamy if liberty-loving Americans have anything to say about it. The raid by the FBI is an unprecedented and audacious breach of the rule of law and political ethics. It is a transparent and partisan act of sheer hatred for Trump and for conservatives, and may possibly be the single act that heretofore turns complacent Americans on both sides of the aisle against the Democrat party...

Per capita murder rates in major U.S. cities such as Chicago, Baltimore and St. Louis are outpacing Ukraine's recorded civilian death rate from Russia's invasion. According to the United Nations Human Rights office, 5,401 civilians have been killed in Ukraine since Russia's attack began in February, although the agency said it "believes that the actual figures are considerably higher." With a population of about 41,167,300, Ukraine's civilian death rate is 13.12 per 100,000 people using official statistics from the United Nations. The murder rates for several major U.S. cities are considerably higher than Ukraine's civilian death rate. For example, Baltimore,...

...and the left is spewing all kinds of improbable conspiracy theories. After considerable public pressure, missing-in-action U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland finally addressed the media yesterday, saying he “personally approved the decision” for the FBI to execute a search warrant at President Trump's residence at Mar-a-Lago. Garland declined to provide details about the investigation, such what the documents retrieved by the FBI were. Reading from his text Garland piously intoned: "Faithful adherence to the rule of law is the bedrock principle of the Justice Department and of our democracy. Upholding the rule of law means applying the law evenly without...

The blockbuster article in the Washington Post saying President Donald Trump had "revealed highly classified information to the Russian foreign minister and ambassador in a White House meeting" didn’t just put the White House on the defensive. It also put Republican lawmakers in a tight spot. One of the members of Congress who commented after the newspaper’s revelations was Sen. James Risch, R-Idaho. According to CNN, he told reporters, "The minute the president speaks about it to someone, he has the ability to declassify anything at any time without any process." Is that accurate? Independent experts said Risch is on...

If someone in Donald Trump's circle tipped off the FBI ahead of the raid of Mar-a-Lago, that person would have to be 'very close' to the former president, according to former acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney. 'I didn't know there was a safe at Mar-a-Lago and I was the chief of staff for 15 months,' Mulvaney told CNN's New Day. The former chief of staff said that a potential informant would have to be 'really close' to the former president to know where he kept documents at Mar-a-Lago. 'This would be someone who was handling things on day to...

Donald Trump has called for the release of the search warrant in the FBI raid on his Florida resort, following reports that the search was related to classified documents regarding nuclear weapons. Late on Thursday, Trump said he would not challenge the release of the warrant, after Attorney General Merrick Garland said he would petition for the document to be unsealed. According to Garland, Trump's attorneys do have their own copies of both the warrant and the receipt for items seized in Monday's raid -- documents that are routinely provided to the target of a court-approved search. If Trump does...

Firefighters are battling a brush fire they believe started at a homeless encampment in southern California. Footage of the blaze shows large clouds of smoke billowing alongside a busy Los Angeles County freeway Thursday evening.

The fire comes as temperatures are on the rise in LA, with some areas forecast to reach triple-digit heat this weekend. California is also in the peak of its wildfire season, which meteorologists say has grown longer...
