Hannah Dugan’s supporters have created a legal defense fund to fight what the group calls an “unprecedented attack on the independent judiciary by the federal government” as the judge fights charges she interfered with immigration officers. The defense fund also announced today Dugan intends to return to the Milwaukee County bench. In anticipation of that, there will be a series of restrictions on donations, including no contributions from Milwaukee County residents or any parties with matters pending before the Milwaukee County Circuit Court. Dugan’s case has drawn national attention. Ahead of her announcement, legal observers expected a legal defense fund...

Would having your brain connected to the Internet 24 hours a day be heaven, or would it be hell? Today, a very large portion of the population is seemingly glued to their phones or their computers much of the time. But soon implantable brain-computer interfaces will allow those people to stay connected to their devices all the time. Apple has partnered with a shadowy tech company known as “Synchron” to develop a “brain implant that allows users to operate digital devices by thinking”… Imagine controlling an iPhone or MacBook with nothing but thoughts. It may sound far-fetched, but Apple’s latest...

Cultural myths have always held that the left is better at comedy than the right, at least according to the left. But circular logic aside, the results of the past few years speak for themselves. The left can’t meme, and it’s falling behind in comedic talent. Case in point would be a comparison of the sheer genius of the folks of the Babylon Bee and the hapless, out-of-touch, and unfunny skits of Saturday Night Live. The first video from the Babylon Bee is of a leftist (we’re using that term instead of the other “L” word) going back in time...

James Comey's Instagram post sheds light on "The 8647 Movement" It has been exactly 9 years, 11 months, and 2 days since Donald Trump announced for president in 2015. For 9 years, 11 months, and 1 day, Democrats and their allies have slandered, conspired against, and impeached Trump. They tried to bankrupt him, steal his wealth and destroy his business empire. Perverting, even rewriting, the law, they tried to imprison him, and, yes, they even tried to assassinate him, and still the man stands -- and he's doin' deals like no man before him -- ever! That upset Big Jim...

It was a bad week for Democrats, who are already gearing up for a 2028 primary season that promises to be an even bigger shitshow than the last one. That's a really high bar, even for Democrats, but we're confident they can deliver the goods. The 2020 primary was so insane it rendered a widely heralded candidate, Kamala Harris, unelectable in the general election due to the ridiculous left-wing policies she embraced (on camera) to placate party activists. Even a competent candidate would have struggled to defend her enthusiastic support for taxpayer-funded sex-change operations for incarcerated illegal immigration. Egg prices...

Chinese government snoops - hiding behind the guise of fake consulting companies - are actively trying to recruit the thousands upon thousands of US federal employees who have been fired since President Trump took office. Cyber and information warfare experts at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD) uncovered five companies they say are part of a larger Chinese intelligence operation that posted ads on LinkedIn, Craigslist, and other smaller job boards and websites targeting former government employees on the hunt for new gigs. One Craigslist ad pitched: "Job Opportunities for Recently Laid-Off US Government Employees." It says: "We understand...

Tiago Corte de Alencar, a Seventh-day Adventist lawyer and amateur judoka, recently won a legal case allowing him to reschedule mandatory judo certification exams that conflicted with his observance of the Sabbath. The case, filed against the São Paulo Judo Federation, highlights ongoing questions around religious freedom and inclusion in sports and public life. Alencar observes the Sabbath from Friday sunset to Saturday sunset, a central belief for Seventh-day Adventists, but faced scheduling challenges as he progressed in judo. Certification exams, required to advance to higher belts, are administered by the São Paulo Judo Federation and traditionally held on Saturdays....

Down in the swamps of Washington, D.C., our Congress is said to be hard at work hammering out a budget for the coming fiscal year. With a crisis of massive deficits looming, supposedly they are going to come up with some major areas where government spending can be cut. One of the areas under consideration for significant cuts is the program formally known as the “Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program,” or SNAP, and informally known as “food stamps.” According to the latest data from the Department of Agriculture, as of February 2025 the SNAP program had some 42+ million “participation persons,”...

Washington, D.C. – In a bombshell report released Tuesday, the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence accused the FBI of deliberately downplaying the politically motivated 2017 shooting that nearly killed House Majority Leader Steve Scalise and injured several others. The shooter, James Hodgkinson, was a far-left extremist who opened fire on Republican congressmen practicing for the annual charity baseball game—but the FBI called it “suicide by cop.” That decision, the report says, wasn’t just wrong—it was dishonest. The 27-page unclassified report, compiled from more than 3,000 pages of FBI records recently turned over by new Director Kash Patel, reveals that...

Two weeks ago, Federal District Court Judge Beryl Howell permanently enjoined the Trump Administration from implementing the president’s executive order targeting the Perkins Coie law firm. Trump’s order suspended security clearances for the firm’s lawyers and barred them from federal buildings, prohibited the government from engaging the firm, and directed that it be investigated for violating civil rights laws. The order explained that these restrictions were appropriate because of Perkins Coie’s “dishonest and dangerous activity,” including hiring Fusion GPS to manufacture a false dossier to “steal an election.” As counsel to Hillary Clinton, the firm worked with Fusion GPS to...

“‘Our Father who is in heaven . . .’” (Matthew 6:9). Knowing God as our Father carries with it a definite list of spiritual privileges and benefits. First, it means we need not fear, as pagans do before their false gods or unbelievers do in their agnosticism. Second, real knowledge of God resolves uncertainties and gives us hope. A good earthly father does what it takes to protect and provide for his children; so our heavenly Father does much more to love and sustain His children (cf. Matt. 7:11; John 10:29; 14:21). Third, knowing the Father alleviates loneliness. Family, friends,...

FIRST ON FOX: Virginia Democratic gubernatorial candidate Abigail Spanberger is facing pushback from both her opponent and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) after condemning the "shocking" execution of an ICE raid at a Virginia courthouse earlier this month that netted two criminal illegal immigrants. "I think what we’ve seen most shocking, including here in Charlottesville, has been cases where people haven’t provided identification and have been in some cases masked and in plain clothes," Spanberger, a former Democratic congresswoman and former intelligence officer, told the Daily Progress last month after an ICE raid at Albemarle County Courthouse led to...

FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino issued a sharp and public condemnation of the bureau's former director, James Comey, Saturday, accusing Comey of disgracing the agency as authorities investigate Comey’s controversial "86 47" Instagram post. In a statement posted to X, Bongino said Comey’s actions are another example of failed leadership that continues to haunt the agency. "Former FBI Director James Comey brought shame to the FBI badge, yet again, this past week," Bongino wrote. "The Director and I spend an inordinate amount of time cleaning up messes left behind by former Director Comey. And his latest actions are no exception."...

The verdict is in. Joe Biden is to blame. So too are the advisers who protected him in the White House by hiding his frailties. Together they unwittingly choreographed the comeback of President Donald Trump. The country is living with the consequences, and the Democratic Party is looking for a way out of the wilderness. That, at least, is the underlying charge of books about the 2024 election. The one drawing the most attention is the newest, “Original Sin: President Biden’s Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again.” Written by CNN’s Jake Tapper and Axios’s Alex Thompson,...

Maine Gov. Janet Mills will be one of the recipients of the Human Rights Award from the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights organization. A ceremony will be held next month. Mills will receive the award because of her battle with President Donald Trump’s administration over transgender athlete inclusion in women’s and girls’ sports. "I am honored to receive this recognition named for former Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy, a heroic champion for civil rights and the rule of law that governs our nation and inspires the world," Mills said in a news release. "Throughout my career as a District Attorney,...
