Justice is supposed to be blind—not complicit. If the federal allegations are accurate, Judge Hannah Dugan didn’t just turn a blind eye to a fugitive in her courtroom—she opened the back door and showed him the way out. In doing so, Judge Dugan broke faith with the law, the victims of the case before her, and the judiciary itself. She allegedly transformed her courtroom into an escape hatch for a fugitive—not a forum for justice—endangering not only the integrity of her office but also the safety of law enforcement officers, innocent bystanders, and even the very defendant she abetted in...

Hayden's firing comes as President Trump has been purging federal officials deemed to have gone against his agenda Democratic leaders erupted late Thursday after it was reported that President Trump had abruptly fired Librarian of Congress Carla Hayden. Hayden was notified of her firing in an email late Thursday from the White House's Presidential Personnel Office, according to an email seen by The Associated Press. "Carla," the email reportedly began. "On behalf of President Donald J. Trump, I am writing to inform you that your position as the Librarian of Congress is terminated effective immediately. Thank you for your service."...

The MoS found first-hand testimonies of atrocities inflicted on the Baka, an indigenous people once known as pygmies, to stop them entering forests where they have foraged, fished, hunted and found medicines for millennia. One woman told of being raped by an armed guard while clinging to her newborn baby. And a teenage boy claimed he was groomed for paid sex by another guard.

Why pick the first American Pope now? Robert Prevost was made Pope Leo XIV as a counterweight to President Trump. There’s been little ambiguity about the new pope’s politics and less about the overall agenda. Pope Francis had all but rigged the process to assure another radical successor.

Wild video captured the disgusting moment an enraged woman spat on failed Trump nominee lawyer Ed Martin in the middle of a TV interview. The sick ordeal unfolded as Martin was speaking to Newsmax on Thursday about President Trump’s decision to withdraw his nomination to serve as the top federal prosecutor for Washington, DC, instead picking Fox News’ Jeanine Pirro. Martin was mid-sentence when the unidentified woman suddenly appeared while walking a dog and started waving her finger in his face. . You are Ed Martin,” she could be heard saying aggressively. She then hurled abuse at him before launching...

“‘When you give to the poor, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving will be in secret; and your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you’” (Matthew 6:3–4). When you give as Jesus directs—lovingly, unpretentiously, and with no concern for public recognition—“your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you.” In other words, if you remember, God forgets; and if you forget, God still remembers. You should simply try to meet every need you can and leave the bookkeeping to Him. This kind...

Minnesota has been in the news a lot in recent years, and not in a good way. This essay is a wistful look back at the decline of a once great state. I moved to Minnesota in 1975, partially inspired by the famous Time Magazine cover featuring Governor Wendall Anderson holding up a caught walleye, touting the “Good Life in Minnesota.” I came for the good life and the in-state college summer school rates offered by the University of Minnesota. I ended up getting a job in Minneapolis, putting down roots, getting married, having three kids, eventually owning three businesses...

It aims to ensure that everyone had access to skills that would help them benefit from the digital economy, and Mr. Trump slammed it as “unconstitutional.” “No more work handouts based on race! The Digital Equity Program is a RACIST and ILLEGAL $2.5 BILLION DOLLAR giveaway,” he wrote. “I am ending this IMMEDIATELY and saving Taxpayers BILLIONS OF DOLLARS!”

Qatar has been a threat to our national security since at least 1986. Their inroads into the U.S. have been subtle and persistent, which doesn’t make them any less dangerous, and the penetration is primarily into our education system: Foreign donors have given as much to U.S. universities in the last four years as they did in the previous 40, according to a new report by the Network Contagion Research Institute shared exclusively with The Free Press. The study shows an explosion in overseas funding for American schools between 2021 and 2024, with nearly $29 billion in foreign money donated...

Another sign of the incredible spiritual movement shaping America just kicked off this Saturday. Thousands of people stood on the shores of Huntington Beach in California and got baptized for the “world to know” that they had decided to fully commit their lives to Jesus Christ. Following last year’s record-breaking launch, Baptize California kicked off its outreach to bring more churches together across the state for the “largest synchronized baptism” event in U.S. history.

New eye-popping data shows what is not often cited in the nation's labor force. Fresh numbers reveal that unemployment for Black workers this year is steadily rising, especially for Black women. A disturbing trend was identified in the latest information from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). Among other findings, the report disclosed that the jobless rate for Black women rose to 6.1% in April, a full percentage point surge from 5.1%...... "The unusual nature of this increase in Black women’s unemployment is a testament to and a direct result of the anti-DEI and anti-Black focus of the new...

New York State Attorney General Letitia James was heckled by a Trump supporter at a community hearing where she claimed the freshly opened federal criminal probe into her alleged mortgage fraud is “baseless.” James was interrupted at a community impact hearing in Westchester on Thursday night, just hours after the Trump administration opened a formal criminal probe into James over the alleged mortgage fraud involving her Brooklyn and Virginia properties. “Apologize to Donald Trump for wasting millions of dollars in the state of New York,” the MAGA booster shouted from the audience. The interruption was met with a chorus of...

As a rule of thumb, whenever a government or similarly powerful institution says that something is true, it is best to assume the exact opposite until the facts of the matter are firmly hammered down. “Conspiracy theories” frequently prove to be partially or wholly accurate in the long run. People who dissent from popular “narratives” tend to be months — or even years — ahead of the corporate news talking heads when it comes to “breaking news.” Because “conspiracy theorists” are often far ahead of the news cycle, some people rightly refer to them as “Fact Hoarders” (hat tip to...

Variations on the classic Merlin and King Arthur legends span hundreds, if not thousands, of retellings. Many are documented within handwritten medieval manuscripts dating back over a millenia—but some editions are far rarer than others. For example, less than 40 copies are known to exist of a once-popular sequel series, the Suite Vulgate du Merlin. In 2019, researchers at the University of Cambridge discovered fragments of one more copy in their collections, tucked inside the recycled binding of a wealthy family's property record from the 16th century. But at the time of discovery, the text was impossible to read.Now after...
