The man who authorities say sat with a rifle in the trees where Donald Trump was golfing earlier this month in West Palm Beach, Florida, previously wrote a letter stating “this was an assassination attempt on Donald Trump,” according to a new filing Monday by federal prosecutors.... One letter, addressed to “The World” said: “... I will offer $150,000 to whomever can complete the job.” Prosecutors say Routh was in the area of Trump’s golf course and the former president’s Mar-a-Lago residence across multiple days in the month before he was arrested and had a Google search of how to...

A Pakistani citizen residing in Canada, Muhammad Shahzeb Khan, 20, also known as Shahzeb Jadoon, was arrested on Sept. 4 in Canada in connection with a complaint filed in the Southern District of New York. Khan was charged with attempting to provide material support and resources to a designated foreign terrorist organization (FTO), the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS). “The defendant is alleged to have planned a terrorist attack in New York City around October 7th of this year with the stated goal of slaughtering, in the name of ISIS, as many Jewish people as possible,” said Attorney...

In today’s world, there are 193 countries in the UN. The large majority of those countries will vote consistently against the United States on measures that come before the General Assembly. Then again, the international system that counts is not the UN, but rather the U.S.-led commercial and legal order of alliances and trade. Almost all of the 193 UN member countries participate willingly in that system, to their great benefit. They may oppose the U.S. on many issues, and they may have disputes with their immediate neighbors, but they don’t make themselves constant troublemakers threatening to disrupt world peace...

With Huawei’s CCP ties, the claim is that elections could be manipulated remotely—and that a shutdown of this site allegedly disrupted attempts to interfere in 2024.December 29, 2025

Law enforcement officials cautioned that they had not yet determined a motive for the Pacific Northwest arson fires. But the messages have heightened the sensitivity of the investigation. Investigators responding to arson fires at two ballot boxes in the Pacific Northwest this week found devices at both scenes marked with the words “Free Gaza,” according to two law enforcement officials. Investigators are trying to determine if the perpetrator was actually a pro-Palestinian activist or someone using that prominent cause to sow discord, one of the officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity because the investigation was ongoing. But the message...

There is a cynical reason why Democrat leaders keep illegal aliens in the country. It is not for humanitarian reasons. The net effect of increases in both legal and illegal immigration in the 2020 Census shifted 17 House seats and 17 Electoral College votes. It resulted in a net gain of 14 seats in blue states. Ten seats shifted from red states and four from battleground states. It’s partly due to districts with high percentages of noncitizens who lean heavily Democrat. “Of the 24 districts where one in five adults is not an American citizen, twenty were won by a...

Vice President Kamala Harris was slammed on X after she she posted a message saying that the will of the Venezuelan people must be respected as the opposition had been claiming irregularities after incumbent president Nicholas Maduro was declared the winner.

Alex_Vzla @at_tvzla10h What do you know about the 2024 Venezuelan presidential election? (video posted December 2025)

Venezuelan authorities and pro-government armed groups have committed widespread abuses since the July 28, 2024 presidential elections that officials said Nicolás Maduro had won, despite substantial evidence to the contrary. The Venezuelan government has killed, tortured, detained, and forcefully disappeared people seeking democratic change and many others have fled the country. Governments should support accountability efforts for grave human rights violations in Venezuela, call on Venezuelan authorities to release people arbitrarily detained, disclose the whereabouts of those subjected to enforced disappearances, and expand access to international protection for Venezuelans fleeing repression. (Washington, DC) – Venezuelan authorities and pro-government armed groups...

Mark Block uncovered unauthorized ActBlue donations made in his name. The alias “Bernie Kane” was used to spoof conservative donors. Smurfing breaks large donations into small ones to avoid detection. ActBlue does not require ID verification for small-dollar donors. Watchdogs warn these loopholes could distort real campaign momentum. In 2023, Republican strategist Mark Block was surprised to receive a phone call alleging he had donated to Bernie Sanders. He initially dismissed it as an error but then saw proof. Small-dollar donations had been processed through ActBlue using his name and address, despite the fact that he had never contributed.

This is what you call bad timing. A Somali-born day-care owner recently announced he is running for state legislature in Minnesota — where his community and business field have been engulfed in an explosive billion-dollar fraud scandal. Abdi Daisane, who is not accused in the up to $9 billion web of alleged fraud, announced Christmas Eve that he plans to take another shot at the statehouse in the 2026 midterm elections after he was defeated by the Republican incumbent in 2024. He also suffered a failed City Council bid in 2016. Daisane has said he opened his day-care business, Blooming...

VIDEORemember when Steve Cortes switched from supporting Trump to endorsing Ron DeSantis? Poor Steve soon learned he made a bad decision and we can actually pinpoint the EXACT MOMENT in February 2023 when he had that realization. It was while the unhinged betrayer of James O'Keefe who caused the destruction of Project Veritas, Matt Tyrmand, shot his mouth off like a deranged loon about how horrible he condidered Trump to be. And at that moment you can read via the sudden dramatic change on Steve Cortes' face what a drastic mistake he realized he made.ANYTHING involving that Toxic Dirtbag Matt...

US President Donald Trump has warned Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro to step down or risk potential American military action, a report says. Tensions between Washington and Caracas have surged after US President Donald Trump warned Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro that refusal to step down voluntarily could trigger the use of American military force. According to a Wall Street Journal report, Trump delivered a stark ultimatum during a hotline call on 22 November, telling Maduro he could take the “easy way or hard way," offering safe passage to a friendly capital or face direct US action. Trump’s warning coincided with a...

Former President Barack Obama was not pleased that former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris the day after President Joe Biden dropped out of the presidential race.In his new book Retribution, ABC News' Jonathan Karl provided new details on what had been widely known - that Obama didn't want a quick coronation of Harris, but rather 'a process' to determine who would become the Democratic nominee. The Daily Mail obtained an advanced copy. Obama called Pelosi shortly after her endorsement of Harris became public. 'The Obamas were not happy,' a Pelosi confidant told Karl. 'This...

President Donald Trump notched a legal victory Friday in his lawsuit against Iowa pollster J. Ann Selzer and The Des Moines Register, and the case will now land in Iowa State Court after an appeals court sided with the president and ruled a lower court had overstepped. Trump’s legal team, which has accused the defendants of "brazen election interference" with their final 2024 Iowa presidential poll that showed him trailing Democrat Kamala Harris, originally requested the case be moved to Iowa State Court in May after the defendants "removed" the case to federal court. A federal judge denied the request...

When we think of whom to thank for Donald Trump’s 2024 election victory, we should not forget to mention Joe Biden’s press secretary.

Former Biden White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre unleashed on the Democratic Party in an excerpt from her new memoir, explaining why she decided to become an independent after years as a party flack. In the excerpt, Jean-Pierre detailed the phone call in which then-President Joe Biden told the White House team that he was dropping out of the race, Newsweek reported. "Biden seemed to be totally at peace with his decision, but I was stunned, my feelings a blur. I was angry and sad. I was enraged and heartbroken that this man had given more than 50 years of...

Speaking during an interview on ABC’s “The View,” Vice President Kamala Harris announced that she had a “mole” inside Fox News channel, a friend who has fed her insider information from Fox News, including on election night. The news came as she discussed finding out she failed on election night, but could hint at big problems for Fox News moving forward. For reference, former Vice President and failed 2024 presidential candidate Kamala Harris’s claims on the matter came when she appeared on “The View” on Tuesday, September 23. As she discussed finding out that she was going to lose, she...

When people such as Vivek Ramaswamy, a candidate for the Republican Party nomination in the 2024 US presidential election, call for decreasing aid to Israel, they are actually sending a message of support to the mullahs in Tehran and their proxies, Hamas and PIJ, as well as the Iran-funded Hezbollah terrorist militia in Lebanon and to nations that would like to see Israel and America "out of the way."For Israel's enemies, statements such as "cutting aid" are a sign that America is about to throw Israel under the bus, paving the way for them to proceed with their plan to...
