AJ Kern, who ran for congress herself, joined Liz Collin on her podcast to talk about the shocking details in documents related to Rep. Omar's personal history and immigration status. Rep. Omar has repeatedly "claimed that she became a citizen at the age of 17," Kern explained. However, based on public records, Kern said it seems as though Rep. Omar "was actually 18 in the year 2000, when her father became eligible to apply for citizenship." After requesting and reviewing official documents, Kern believes that Rep. Omar "actually wasn't a minor when her father could apply for naturalization. It kind...

Attorney Dr. David Feinwachs joined Liz Collin on her podcast. He is former general counsel of the Minnesota Hospital Association. He was fired for asking too many questions after four HMOs in Minnesota were making an extraordinary amount of money from the state Medicaid program. The federal government has put Minnesota on notice: fix the fraud or lose the federal funds. Dr. Feinwachs said a recent filing from the feds is a “bombshell” and could lead to severe consequences for Gov. Tim Walz and his administration. How this was made

🚨🇺🇸 AMERICAN FENTANYL DEATHS COLLAPSE AFTER YEARS OF EXPLOSION After more than a decade of nonstop increases, monthly fentanyl deaths are now plunging. At the peak, over 6,000 Americans were dying every month. Now the number has dropped to around 2,700. That didn’t happen by accident. Border enforcement tightened. Drug seizures surged. Pressure on cartels increased. Trump warned this would happen years ago. The data is clear. Source: @endwokeness

A TIME FOR EVERYTHING There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens: A time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot, A time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build, A time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance, A time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing, A time...

BREAKING - The Secret Service are finally taking threats from leftists encouraging violence online seriously, as they showed up at the home of prominent leftist agitator Jamie Bonkiewicz after she called for Press Sec Karoline Leavitt to be killed on television. Now arrest her.

Earlier this month, Mayor Zohran Mamdani faced controversy for his appointment of advisor Cea Weaver to run the Mayor’s Office to Protect Tenants. Weaver, X users and the media soon discovered, had made several social-media posts asserting that homeownership was “racist” and “a weapon of white supremacy,” and calling for policies to “impoverish the white middle class.” I dislike the attitudes expressed in these posts. I even think they’re racist. But it’s easy to treat them as aberrant. In fact, at the time they were made—the late 2010s—those attitudes were culturally dominant.Such instinctual, casual anti-white statements reinforced the active institutional...

If you recall, in 2022, a convoy of Canadian truckers blocked traffic in Ottawa to protest the ongoing Covid mandates of the totalitarian Canadian government: Mandates that were crushing their homes, families, and finances. The Canadian government, led by former PM Justin Trudeau, responded with force, declaring the assembly dangerous. Here were a few of the "terrorizing" scenes from the truckers that probably scared Trudeau senseless. Faced with cheerful singing and inflatable bouncy houses, Trudeau had no choice. He invoked emergency powers to freeze the bank accounts of the truckers, ensuring they couldn't pay their bills or feed their families....

The president also ruled out the bank’s CEO, Jamie Dimon, as a possible pick for Fed chair.President Donald Trump announced Saturday that he will be suing the investment banking company JPMorgan Chase within “the next two weeks” for allegedly “DEBANKING” him after the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol insurrection. Trump has claimed that the investment bank closed or restricted his accounts following the riot, effectively cutting him off from longstanding banking relationships. He has framed the action as politically motivated retaliation, arguing banks acted under pressure from the Biden administration. Trump has increasingly folded this into a broader narrative of “debanking”...

Democrat state Sen. Ghazala Hashmi became the new lieutenant governor of Virginia on Saturday, taking the oath of office as she placed her left hand on the Quran. In video footage posted on social media, Hashmi was seen being instructed to place her left hand on the Quran and to raise her right hand. Hashmi defeated radio host John Reid in Virginia’s election in November 2025. As Breitbart News’s Hannah Knudsen reported, during the campaign Reid “identified himself as someone who has ‘very strong principles,'” while Hashmi “appealed to her status as a diverse candidate.”:
