Los Angeles Democratic Mayor Karen Bass expressed disappointment and concern Friday with Hispanics joining Border Patrol – arguing they’re only doing it for the paycheck. “Well, in a way, I think it’s sad,” Bass said of a CNN report on Border Patrol’s new recruits, many of which are Hispanic. “I think that those Border Patrol agents are going to have a difficult time when they’re out in the field and they see what actually happens in real life separate from their training,” the mayor told “The Situation Room” host Wolf Blitzer. The report Bass was asked to respond to included...

Florida Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick was slapped with a savage community note on X after a $109,000, 3-carat yellow diamond ring she’s accused of buying with ill-gotten FEMA funds was conspicuously edited out of a photo. Eagle-eyed X sleuths noticed the pricey, square-cut bauble was missing from a Christmas post from the South Florida Democrat, which bore her official congressional portrait — and a naked left ring finger. “This portrait of Rep. Cherfilus-McCormick has been altered to remove a ring off of her left hand that she bought using $109K of stolen FEMA funds,” the community note said. The three-term congresswoman,...

Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director Kash Patel confirmed that the agency will be shutting down the J. Edgar Hoover Building in Washington, DC, “permanently.” In a post on X, Patel explained that initially, there had been a plan to build a “new headquarters that wouldn’t open until 2035” for almost $5 billion.

I usually dont post video news from YouTube, but this was just too much for me to ignore. You have to watch to believe what this independent investigative journalist uncovered. Just unbelievable. This young man and an offical looking older man holding hard data on printouts go to building after building in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Inside there are 4,5,6 daycare centers that advertise hundreds of children but the place is empty save for 2 or 3 Somalian women. Same thing for medical treatment centers. Its an obvious cover up. This video should be used as evidence in congressional committee hearings. Note...
