A Virginia high school principal and his brother were arrested for allegedly planning to carry out a heinous attack involving firearms and explosives to kill US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced on Wednesday. John Wilson Bennett, and his brother Mark Booth Bennett, have each been charged with conspiracy to commit malicious wounding. According to DHS, the pair was overheard by Virginia state police officers on November 17 discussing alleged plans to "kill police officers and ICE agents." Additionally, Mark was allegedly overheard stating his intention to meet with like-minded individuals in Las...

Now for the feel-good story of the week: A California immigration judge wept after being abruptly fired mid-asylum hearing, making her the latest victim of the Trump administration’s deportation crackdown. Won’t someone please stop laughing and share in the tears of this victim? Shuting Chen, 41, of San Francisco, was halfway through a hearing on Friday for three Venezuelan siblings who had fled persecution and waited years for their day in court when an email labeled ‘notice of termination’ flashed onto her screen. Chen was appointed by Biden’s handlers in 2022. ‘I started to cry in my courtroom in front...

President Donald Trump obliterated a so-called “reporter” who dared to question why he holds Joe Biden responsible for allowing the Afghan terrorist, who ambushed two National Guard members in Washington, D.C., into the United States, which left a member of the West Virginia National Guard dead and another in critical condition. The exchange happened during a press gaggle that quickly turned into a masterclass in how to handle the corrupt press. The reporter had the audacity to ask: “Why do you blame the Biden administration?” As if it’s not crystal clear that Crooked Joe’s bungled withdrawal flooded our country with...

The City of Woodburn is committed to keeping our community safe while respecting the concerns of our community members," Mayor Frank Lonergan said.

We're watching another stunning and historic day in the silver market as the price has surged more than $3 and even broken through the $57 level following last night's COMEX closure and precious metals flash crash.

I am not so cynical as to believe that either the CIA or USAID figures wanted to import Islamist terrorists into the United States, but it doesn't say anything good about either agency that they don't have a track record of ferreting them out, or even exercising good judgment. Of course, it's hardly surprising that the CIA works with some very sketchy people. It's got to be part of the job description when your job is to track what sketchy people do. The same could be said of some special forces types working in primitive cultures. They have to ally...

Sympathy for the suffering that Somalis were enduring in their war-torn country in the 1990s led to the importation of thousands of them to the US. A huge number of them were relocated to Minnesota where they have since been able to elect Ilhan Omar to represent them in the US Congress. Others launched remarkably successful fraud schemes that have pilfered hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars. Welfare dependency among the Minnesota Somalis is 40%. Remittances to Somalia have amounted to billions of dollars. The ISIS- affiliated Al-Shabaab terror group taxes these remittances to fund their army. More than 20...

There were an older era of "analog" audio recordings, produced in the old "waveform", analog audio computer application program, "Audacity". They were functionally supported by a "metronome", a "click track" or a "rhythm track". With a lot of concentration and some luck, a performance could be produced that would satisfy pianists, critics and teachers. The metronome needed to be used to set the basic tempo, but if it were doubled in speed to correspond with the smallest "note" value in a piece (an eighth note in a 6/8 example piece with longer/bigger quarter notes and dotted quarter notes, a typical...

At least two people are wounded in a shooting at a mall in San Jose, California on Black Friday. “Units are currently investigating a shooting at Valley Fair Mall in West San Jose. Two victims were located and have been transported to a local hospital with gunshot wounds,” San Jose Police Department said on Friday evening. “Please avoid the area while officers investigate and work to ensure everyone’s safety,” the police said. The San Jose Police Department said it is not an active shooter situation and it appears to be an isolated incident: This shooting appears to be an isolated...

When it comes to talking to Gen Z men the right is beginning to sound a bit like the left: You can’t get ahead. The whole world is stacked against you. You’re the real victim here. Podcaster Ben Shapiro recently said as much at a recent event, when he called out conservatives for inculcating young men with a “nihilistic” worldview rather than giving them the “tough talk” they need. “I think that the right is actually weirdly feminizing young men by giving them a victimology to buy into,” Shapiro said at the Jewish Leadership Conference. “This notion that you, as...

The number has skyrocketed in recent weeks and includes at least 20 judges appointed by Trump himself.The Trump administration’s bid to systematically lock up nearly all immigrants facing deportation proceedings has led to a fierce — and mounting — rejection by courts across the country.That effort, which began with an abrupt policy change by Immigration and Customs Enforcement on July 8, has led to a tidal wave of emergency lawsuits after ICE’s targets were arrested at workplaces, courthouses or check-ins with immigration officers. Many have lived in the U.S. for years, and sometimes decades, without incident and have been pursuing...

Americans should know we already gave socialism a chance. The only reason we get to celebrate Thanksgiving with lots of food is because the Pilgrims learned (the hard way) that socialism doesn’t work. When they came to America, they first tried sharing land. Gov. William Bradford decreed that each family would get an equal share of food, no matter how much they worked. The results were disastrous. Few Pilgrims worked hard, claiming “weakness and inability,” wrote Bradford. “Much was stolen.” The same plan in Jamestown led to starvation, the death of half the population, even cannibalism. Learning from their mistakes,...

White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy Stephen Miller said Tuesday that Democrats are pushing a political strategy that he says would turn the United States “into a version of Somalia.” A City Journal report alleges that Somali-linked fraud rings have siphoned millions from Minnesota programs and funneled some of the stolen money to the Islamist terror group Al-Shabaab, according to federal counterterrorism sources. During an interview on “Jesse Watters Primetime,” Miller warned Democrats are steering the country toward what he called the “Somalification of America.” “In other words, when you see the state of Somalia, that’s what they...

Chat, how cooked are we? October's Interest payment on US debt was a record $104.4 billion.This is how empires fall. 🇺🇸 pic.twitter.com/vOhQYdFDJC— Jesse Cohen (@JesseCohenInv) November 26, 2025That's $104.4 BILLION for a single month.

“Seditionist 6” member Elissa Slotkin predicted an incident with the National Guard in DC one month ago. This is sick and looking more and more like another Deep State color revolution against the American people. The Deep State went on full attack during President Trump’s first term and manufactured a color revolution in this country to remove President Trump from office. The media, Big Tech, COVID, BLM riots, and more culminated in the stolen 2020 Election. It was planned and produced by the Deep State. It was evil, corrupt, and an attack on the people of America again. There are...

The father of the West Virginia guard member who died following Wednesday’s Washington, DC, shooting responded with two heartbreaking sentences on Thanksgiving. Gary Beckstrom, the father of 20-year-old West Virginia National Guard member Sarah Beckstrom, wrote on Facebook Thursday: “My baby girl has passed to glory. If I don’t talk to you don’t be offend [sic] this has been a horrible tragedy.” The young woman soldier had been in critical condition with gunshot wounds since the attack as doctors tried to save her life. Still hospitalized and in critical condition is 24-year-old Andrew Wolfe, who with Beckstrom was was shot...

President Donald Trump has not dismissed the possibility of deporting the family of Rahmanullah Lakanwal, the 29-year-old Afghan refugee charged with the ambush murder of a National Guard soldier near the White House. Speaking to reporters on Thanksgiving, Trump revealed his team is actively reviewing the option, stating, “Well, we’re looking at that right now,” when asked about expelling Lakanwal’s wife and five children from the U.S. Lakanwal opened fire on two unarmed West Virginia National Guard members patrolling near the White House on Wednesday as part of “Operation DC Safe and Beautiful” to curb rising crime in the capital....
