Never fear: Phil Murphy, defender of the downtrodden, is here! Embattled New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy recently suggested he and his taxpayer-funded security detail may have thwarted Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents from arresting illegal immigrants congregating near his $10 million Middletown mansion. “There was a time when ICE was just randomly showing up on street corners and apprehending … brothers and sisters from the immigrant community,” Murphy said in press conference held a day after President Trump’s election victory. He claimed he caught wind of a neighborhood that was “at-risk” of an immigration enforcement sweep, and that he put...

And Bonta, a former state lawmaker who has served as California attorney general since 2021, says he will run for re-election next year rather than launch a gubernatorial campaign, putting to rest speculation about his next political moves. "Kamala Harris would be a great governor," Bonta said in an interview with Politico. "I would support her if she ran. I’ve always supported her in everything she’s done.

President Trump will sign an executive order Wednesday delivering on a key campaign promise to ban transgender athletes from girls’ and women’s sports, a directive that will also extend to trans athletes visiting the U.S. from abroad, a White House official said.

Sanctuary policies are those followed by towns, cities, counties, states, and other jurisdictions that restrict most forms of cooperation with federal immigration authorities. While jurisdictions are not compelled by federal law to participate in federal immigration enforcement activities, federal law (8 USC § 1373) prohibits them from actively obstructing enforcement of federal law. In addition, sanctuary policies may violate the supremacy clause of the United States Constitution (Article VI, Clause 2) and the 10th Amendment.Most importantly, sanctuary policies place the public at risk by preventing the federal authorities from locating, arresting, and prosecuting criminal aliens. The result is that...

Their project is called Deep (not The Deep) and the site was chosen after a global search for the perfect location to build and test underwater accommodation, which the project founders say will enable them to establish a “permanent human presence” under the sea from 2027. The 20-hectare (50-acre) site in Gloucestershire was once a limestone quarry that was flooded in the 1990s and used by a dive school until 2022. Now, it is being transformed into a state-of-the-art facility that will feature accommodation units, a training school and a platform for mini submersibles to take people down to living...

Former Secretary of Defense Mark Esper has become the latest ex-official from President Trump’s first term to lose their security detail, according to a report. The Pentagon revoked Esper’s taxpayer-funded security detail on Tuesday night, CBS News reported on Wednesday. Esper’s security detail had been provided by the Department of Defense as a result of threats he’s received from Iran since the 2020 US airstrike that killed Iranian Gen. Qasem Soleimani. The Pentagon did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment. Esper, 60, served as Trump’s secretary of the Army from November 2017 to July 2019, before he...

A version of the H5N1 bird flu virus that killed a person in Louisiana and severely sickened a teenager in Canada has now been detected in dairy herds in Nevada. The version, known as D1.1, is circulating in wild birds around the nation — causing massive die-offs in places such as Chicago, upstate New York and Ohio. The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service confirmed the finding Wednesday. It’s different from the version circulating in dairy cows, which has caused only relatively mild illness in humans, although it has killed scores of domestic and wild cats....

We are here to fight back,” said Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.), at a large rally Tuesday at the Treasury Department headquarters. Department headquarters.

The Obama administration created the United States Digital Service to be a uniquely nimble organization. Elon Musk is exploiting that feature to test the limits of U.S. law. When Barack Obama created the United States Digital Service in 2014, it was meant to disrupt the arcane tech processes that had led to catastrophes like the original HealthCare.gov rollout. A team of young, private sector workers had been able to come in and fix the site — why couldn’t they be deployed throughout the government to modernize an arcane tech infrastructure? The launch of USDS was met with deep skepticism from...

Today, the U.S. Department of Justice under President Trump and his nominated Attorney General Pam Bondi announced that they are closing the investigation with no charges being brought. Insiders tell the Gateway Pundit that even a month ago, the Department of Justice was still trying to find a way to indict anyone left in the case, including O’Keefe, as the corrupt DOJ prosecutors were on their way out due to the incoming Trump administration. O’Keefe left Project Veritas, the organization he founded, in February 2023 after a conflict with his handpicked board of directors. The board members all later resigned...
