ICE agents stormed the islands of Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard and arrested 40 illegal immigrants - but a blue state governor slammed the effort as 'disturbing.' Immigration agents successfully apprehended at least one MS-13 gang member and one child sex offender during the bust, according Boston acting Field Office Director Patricia Hyde. 'ICE and our federal partners made a strong stand for prioritizing public safety by arresting and removing illegal aliens from our New England neighborhoods,' she said. 'Operations like this highlight the strong alliances that ICE shares with our fellow law enforcement partners.' Even White House press secretary Karoline...

LOS ANGELES — Mayor Karen Bass is catching heat for her claims that new homes are springing up across the Pacific Palisades just months after wildfires leveled the neighborhood. “Karen Bass is full of crap,” Pacific Palisades resident Sara Trepanier, a physician and single mom of four who lost her home to the devastating blaze in January, told The Post Tuesday. Trepanier’s candid words come just a day after Bass proclaimed on X that “homes are under construction throughout the Palisades,” lauding her efforts to “cut red tape” on building permits and “get families home.

Israel News Pulse @israelnewspulse Hamas Kill 5 Gazan Civilians Who Stormed Aid Warehouse in Gaza. Earlier today, hundreds of Gaza residents broke into a large warehouse in central Gaza, used by Hamas to stockpile vast amounts of food, including sacks of flour. The warehouse had been storing supplies that had not been distributed to civilians for months. In response, Hamas opened fire on the civilians, killing five of them on the spot. IDF Arabic Spokesperson Lt. Col. Avichay Adraee released footage of the incident and harshly condemned Hamas: “For months, Hamas tried to spread the lie of famine, only to...

As questions swirl about Joe Biden’s cognitive state and absentee leadership, new scrutiny is falling on the use of the presidential autopen by Biden’s staffers, an automated signature device that has been used to sign executive orders and potentially even pardons. These staffers, if these reports are accurate, could have engaged in multiple ongoing felonies. House Oversight Chair Jim Comer (R-KY) has said legislative subpoenas are being sent out, but what crimes could they be pursuing? And something many are asking online: will anyone ever be charged with any crimes? Nearly all of Biden’s official signatures were done with the...

WASHINGTON — U.S. Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) told Breitbart News exclusively that the neocons have lost the hearts and minds of the American public who are firmly with President Donald Trump’s America First vision on foreign policy, but that they are still very powerful behind the scenes in the swamp in Washington and trying to secretly “undermine” the president’s push for peace worldwide. “I think in the first term, one of the most remarkable achievements, and it really wasn’t so much anticipated, was the Abraham Accords,” Paul told Breitbart News. “A lot of that was Jared [Kushner], but also President...

On May 18, the WNBA released a statement announcing an investigation into alleged fan misconduct that occurred during the May 17 game between the Chicago Sky and the Indiana Fever, which took place in Indiana's Gainbridge Fieldhouse arena. Front Office Sports' Annie Costabile reposted the WNBA's initial statement and added, "Sources with knowledge of the situation say this statement is in response to allegations of racial comments directed at Angel Reese by fan(s) in the crowd." When asked about this investigation after her team's May 20 practice, Angel Reese said, "There's no place for this... the women in this league,...

Belga News Agency reports that modern construction work beneath the Brusselsestraat in Leuven unearthed a rare and remarkably well-preserved Roman wooden water pipe, which the city council has described as a "unique and exceptional find." The conduit was located about 13 feet beneath the level of the modern city street. Extending between 65 and 100 feet long, the pipeline was constructed from hollow tree trunks measuring around six feet each. While similar features have been found in other Belgian cities such as Tienen and Tongeren, they have typically been very badly decayed. Archaeologists believe that the pipe was installed sometime...

US President Donald Trump has appeared to set a two-week deadline for Vladimir Putin, threatening a different response if the Russian counterpart was still stringing him along. As the Kremlin escalated its attacks on Ukraine, Trump was asked in the Oval Office on Wednesday if he thought Putin wanted to end the war. "I can't tell you that, but I'll let you know in about two weeks," Trump told reporters, the latest amid a string of critical public remarks made by Trump about Putin. Since Sunday, Trump has written multiple posts on social media saying that Putin has gone "absolutely...

The last living grandson of the 10th U.S. President John Tyler has died at 96 years old — the end of a link to a bygone era of American history.

A widely used antidepressant drug could help the immune system fight cancer, according to a new research study. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or SSRIs, significantly enhanced the ability of T cells to fight cancer and suppressed tumor growth across a range of cancer types in both mouse and human tumor models found. Yang and her team first began investigating serotonin's role in fighting cancer after noticing that immune cells isolated from tumors had higher levels of serotonin-regulating molecules. The researchers tested SSRIs in mouse and human tumor models representing melanoma, breast, prostate, colon and bladder cancer. They found that SSRI...

A study has uncovered a surprising link between diet, intestinal microbes and the efficacy of cancer therapy. The study could help explain why drugs known as PI3 kinase (PI3K) inhibitors—which disrupt an abnormally activated biochemical signaling pathway that spurs cancer cell proliferation—haven't led to consistent, durable cancer control in patients with solid tumors. The Rabinowitz lab and others have shown that ketogenic diets dramatically enhance responses to cancer drugs in preclinical mouse models of cancer. Such diets are rich in fat and very low in carbohydrates like starch and sugar, and their enhancement of therapeutic responses was thought to be...

Investigators report that one in four hypersensitivity pneumonitis cases in their interstitial lung disease registry could be traced back to mold inside patients' homes, identifying chronic exposure to residential mold as a potential source of severe immune-mediated lung condition. Household exposure has been associated with a range of illnesses, including asthma, chronic rhinosinusitis, and allergic bronchopulmonary mycosis. Physicians are often unable to connect residential environments with patient symptoms, in part due to limited diagnostic tools. Without clear exposure histories or validated testing methods, the role of mold in respiratory disease remains easy to miss. In the study, researchers retrospectively examined...

As former first lady Michelle Obama tells it, it’s not easy being married to a famous man, describing people "spilling water" on her while trying to reach her husband. Both Obama and her guest, OB-GYN Dr. Sharon Malone, who joined the podcast that Obama co-hosts with her brother, "IMO with Michelle Obama & Craig Robinson," discussed the challenges of being married to famous men on Wednesday. Malone’s husband is former Attorney General Eric Holder, who was the 82nd attorney general of the United States from 2009 to 2015 under former President Barack Obama. Michelle Obama recounted the first time she...

Ed Martin has a plan to end the criminal weaponization of the federal government and to hold accountable those who wielded it, he explained on The Alex Marlow Show. Martin is barely a week into his new position as Associate Deputy Attorney General, but he already has an aggressive yet straightforward three-step plan to deliver on President Donald Trump’s charge to root out government corruption and hold the corrupt accountable. The first step is perhaps the simplest. “Tell the truth,” Martin told Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow, promising to call out those who have weaponized the government against the American people....

Marilyn Howard Ellman, the youngest daughter of The Three Stooges star Curly Howard, died May 6 in Simi Valley of heart failure, her son Bradley Server told The Hollywood Reporter. She was 86. With her parents divorced and her father often on the road at the height of his career in the early 1940s, Ellman only got to visit him maybe two weekends a month, her son noted. Later, she would spend time with him in the hospital after he had suffered a series of strokes, one of which forced him to leave The Three Stooges in 1946. “My mom...

ORLANDO, Fla. - A Maryland woman has been arrested and charged with child abuse after allegedly striking a boy aboard a plane at Orlando Sanford Airport, authorities said. Kristy Crampton, 46, of Hagerstown, Maryland, allegedly hit the child after he called her "fat" and "Miss Piggy" on a flight home from Disney World on Memorial Day, according to a Sanford Airport Police report. Witnesses told police that Crampton struck the boy and slammed his head against a window following a verbal argument. One witness described the incident as abuse, stating the "woman was not correcting the child, she was abusing...

A huge portion of a glacier in the Swiss Alps has broken off from the mountainside, sending rock, mud and ice crashing onto the village of Blatten. Authorities have been warning of a potential collapse of the Birch glacier for weeks now as cracks appeared in the ice. Earlier this month, villagers and livestock were evacuated from Blatten, which sits in the valley below the glacier and is home to around 300 people. Webcam and drone images from 28 May show enormous plumes of dust billowing into the Alpine valley as the glacier collapsed, with a huge wave of mud...
