The sister of deranged Dallas ICE sniper Joshua Jahn, who killed one migrant detainee and wounded two others Wednesday, has a long criminal history — including one charge that mirrors her brother’s rap sheet. Kioko Jahn, 27, has been arrested three times in Collin County and is believed to have racked up numerous other run-ins with the law across Texas since 2017, according to online records. Jahn was first cuffed on April 4, 2019, and charged with misdemeanor assault, an offense she seemingly pleaded guilty to seven months later in exchange for an unspecified probation term, court records show. The...

As RedState’s Nick Arama reported Tuesday, President Donald Trump’s visit to the United Nations was marred by several “technical malfunctions.” An escalator stopped suddenly as he and First Lady Melania stepped on it, almost causing them to be pitched forward onto their faces, then his teleprompter suddenly wasn’t working, and then the sound in the auditorium was turned off so nobody without an earpiece could hear what he was saying. Hmm. That’s an awful lot of coincidences, especially considering that there were reports that U.N. staffers had "joked" beforehand about stopping the escalators and elevators so Trump would have to...

The Genocide Lie: Why the Accusation Against Israel Collapses Under Scrutiny. In the months since "Palestine" regime Hamas’s October 7 attacks, there has been a full-force campaign to frame Israel’s counteroffensive in Gaza as a supposed "genocide." The charge is not only false—it is an outrageous distortion of both international law and moral truth. The accusation dishonors the real victims of genocide, manipulates suffering for political purposes, and, worst of all, shields the genocidal intentions of Hamas behind a false moral equivalence. Simple introduction: The war launched in retaliation to Hamas's October 7, 2023, attack that massacred over 1,200 Israelis...

A conservative activist group’s unannounced visit to Tennessee State University ignited a debate over free speech and safety on campus. Members of Fearless Debates said they had come to TSU to “create conversation and discourse.” The NAACP Nashville chapter countered that the group’s goal was to provoke and demean students at the historically Black university.... Fearless Debates described itself as part of the “Fearless Tour,” a grassroots effort inspired by the late conservative commentator Charlie Kirk. On its website, the group said it was “bringing honest conversation and open debate back to America’s college campuses.”... The NAACP Nashville chapter called...

---SNIP--- Once again, the motive does not appear to be much of a mystery here. A person shot up an ICE facility in the midst of intense anti-ICE rhetoric from both the press and Democratic Party politicians. It would make no sense for a right-winger to be behind this attack, even if we didn't have the shell casings with the messages. That reality has caused the left to sink into disgusting levels of cope, as they desperately try to deflect from yet more violence committed by ideological allies.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan became the latest world leader to be humiliated by Donald Trump after he was stopped on the streets of New York to make way for the US President's motorcade. It comes a day after France's Emmanuel Macron was humbled by the city's cops after they stopped him and forced him to wait on the street so that Trump's police escort could get through.... Erdoğan appeared visibly annoyed as he left the UN headquarters ...

The two current teammates in the lawsuit, seniors Alyssa McPherson and Hadeel...

The challenge to the Gun Free School Zone (GFSZ) case from Billings, Montana, involving Gabriel Metcalf, has an interesting twist. The judges in the case asked the attorneys on both sides to present briefs addressing the impact on the case from Rehaif v. United States, 2019. Rehaif established a precedent that, in order to be found guilty, the defendant had to know he belonged to a category that was barred from possessing a firearm, as that was one of the elements of the crime. As mentioned in previous articles, local officials repeatedly told Gabriel Metcalf he was not violating the...

The White House budget office is instructing federal agencies to prepare reduction-in-force plans for mass firings during a possible government shutdown, specifically targeting employees who work for programs that are not legally required to continue. The Office of Management and Budget move to permanently reduce the government workforce if there is a shutdown, outlined in a memo shared with POLITICO ahead of release to agencies tonight, escalates the stakes of a potential shutdown next week. In the memo, OMB told agencies to identify programs, projects and activities where discretionary funding will lapse on Oct. 1 and no alternative funding source...

EXCLUSIVE: In the wake of Charlie Kirk's Sept. 10 assassination allegedly at the hands of a left-wing ideologue, a leftist gun club with ties to political violence posted recruiting flyers at Georgetown University with references to Kirk's death. "Hey fascist! Catch!" says a red flyer from the John Brown Gun Club posted on Georgetown's campus. The phrase is a nod to the same slogan which was allegedly written on a shell casing by Tyler Robinson, who stands accused of murdering Kirk at a Turning Point USA event at Utah Valley University. "The only political group that celebrates when Nazis die,"...

More Americans believe Republicans have “a better plan” than Democrats when it comes to handling several key issues — including the economy, immigration, crime, gun control and political extremism, according to a new poll. The Reuters/Ipsos survey, released Wednesday, asked more than 1,000 US adults, “Which party has the better plan?” and found the GOP vision was favored over the Democrat approach in seven out of 11 policy areas. Republicans received their highest marks on crime and immigration, topping Democrats by 20 percentage points and 18 percentage points, respectively. The GOP also held a double-digit advantage over Dems on how...

@gc22gc BANNON: Lutnick is a blowhard. Worst performance of a sec of commerce. Nothing but phony numbers in the Oval. We’ve got 12M STEM-qualified Americans with no jobs. Send the foreign students and H1Bs home. Those jobs belong to American citizens, Hispanic, black, white, Asian, Muslim. If you want earlier families, earlier marriages, real opportunity, then stop crushing the next generation and give them the jobs.

Federal officials are making an example of a Santa Monica man arrested this week for allegedly doxxing and harassing an ICE attorney, with the architect of Los Angeles’ and Chicago’s raids warning any copycats. Gregory Curcio faces up to five years in prison if convicted, after the Justice Department said he allegedly published private or identifying information about an ICE attorney "with malicious intent."... Bill Essayli, the Trump-appointed U.S. Attorney for Central California, took the message one step further. Essayli said Curcio’s arrest proves why ICE agents must be allowed to shield their identity, which now conflicts with a recently-passed...
