A federal judge in New Hampshire on Thursday ruled the state’s 2024 law requiring first-time voters in the state to provide proof of U.S. citizenship when registering to vote is unconstitutional. The ruling by U.S. District Court Judge Samantha Elliott on HB 1569 is being viewed as a strong rebuke of the Republican-backed policy, considered by voting rights advocates to be one of the nation’s most restrictive laws regarding U.S. citizenship and the right to vote. “New Hampshire’s interest in election integrity cannot justify the burden on New Hampshire voters based on the evidence in this case,” said Elliott in...

A survey has found that over seven in ten people in France believe that crime is “out of control”, with fears that the country is sliding towards a “Mexinization” in which public authority is destroyed. According to a poll this week from CSA for Le Journal du Dimanche, 72 percent of French people believe that crime is out of control. This belief is firmest among supporters of the center-right Républicains at 92 percent, followed by 83 percent of National Rally, and 62 percent of supporters of President Emmanuel Macron’s neo-liberal bloc. The sentiment was also held by a majority of...

Between the falling birth rates, chain migration, anchor babies, and the planned demographic changes by our social engineers, non-whites will be the majority by 2050 or sooner if Democrats get back into office. They would open the borders again. There is no reason to think otherwise. If you think they will be nice to white people, you are sadly mistaken. For some reason, Democrats decided white people can’t have their own country. Possibly, it’s because they see them all as future Democrats they can manipulate due to their neediness.

Democrat congressmen made a series of wild statements during a visit to an immigration detention facility in New Jersey where radical leftists have been protesting and rioting for days. Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) and Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) turned up at Delaney Hall in Newark on Wednesday to demand entry and speak to aliens being held inside the facility by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, citing police, said on social media that [the truck driver] Dong, a native of China, does not speak English. NTSB board member Tom Chapman revealed few new details but said the bus was moving at a high rate of speed. “It seems fairly clear that if there was any braking there wasn’t much, because of the speed and severity of the collision,” Chapman said. [The Tragic Result] A family of four from Massachusetts who were killed when a bus crashed into multiple vehicles in Virginia were traveling to a wedding with a carload of homemade desserts...

The establishment political consensus has long held that it’s impossible to rein in illegal immigration until Congress passes “comprehensive immigration reform.” The Congressional Budget Office has recently made clear that all it really takes is a president willing to enforce federal immigration laws, as he is constitutionally required to do.The CBO recently revised its estimates concerning the number of illegal aliens entering or leaving the United States. More than a year ago, just before Inauguration Day, the CBO estimated that a net 1.1 million “other foreign nationals”—those lacking “a legal immigration status”—would be added to the U.S. population in 2025....

New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill is calling on the Trump administration to shut down a Newark ICE detention facility that has been rocked by violent protests over the past week. The demand comes after New Jersey's Department of Health said it was allegedly denied "full access" to Delaney Hall to investigate allegations of unsanitary conditions and abuse of detainees being held at the facility on immigration charges. "As I’ve said repeatedly, refusing to provide full access raises serious questions about what ICE is trying to hide from public view," Sherill, a Democrat, said in a statement. "New Jersey believes in...

The driver of a bus involved in a deadly Virginia crash that killed five people doesn’t speak English, authorities said, according to US Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy who called it “unacceptable.” Five people were killed and dozens were injured when the driver of an E&P Travel bus heading from New York to North Carolina failed to slow down near a work zone and slammed into several cars on Interstate 95 in Stafford County, the Virginia State Police said.

The scene outside Delaney Hall detention center turned chaotic again Friday night with more clashes between anti-ICE protesters and agents – despite New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill’s attempt to establish a “peaceful” protest zone. The mob throughout the evening continued their vile chants and ignored orders from police to disperse or face arrests as law enforcement used tear gas and pepper spray to restrain the unruly crowd, according to footage. “Kill yourself, quit your job, quit your job,” the rabble-rousers chanted at one point. “F—k ICE,” they barked, labeling federal officers as “murderers.” ICE agents were seen reaching into crowds...

Since Florida launched its immigration enforcement effort, Operation Tidal Wave, in February, nearly 25,000 arrests have been made statewide. “Florida will continue to use every available resource to identify dangerous individuals, support federal immigration enforcement and keep our citizens safe,” Gov.

The program is...

A deranged illegal migrant, deported from the U.S. three times, is accused in the triple murder of an infant and two other women after California’s controversial state sanctuary law obstructed federal authorities who sought to deport him, The California Post has learned.

(The Center Square) — A federal judge has overturned a New Hampshire law that required unregistered voters to provide proof of citizenship to cast ballots in state elections. The ruling late Thursday by U.S. District Court judge Samantha Elliott sided with the American Civil Liberties Union and other groups who sued to block the law, saying the requirement for new voters to provide a birth certificate or valid U.S. passport to cast a ballot on election day was unconstitutional. “New Hampshire’s interest in election integrity cannot justify the burden on New Hampshire voters based on the evidence in this case,"...

They don’t call it censorship anymore. They call it protection. Protection for communities. Protection for organizations. Protection from “threats.” The language is softer now, more strategic, designed to pass scrutiny without triggering it. But behind California’s AB 2624, the intent is harder to ignore: if you document the wrong thing, in the wrong place, involving the wrong people, the state may decide you shouldn’t be allowed to show it at all. And this time, they’re not going after institutions. They’re going after the individuals who don’t need one. In Sacramento, that effort now has a bill number. AB 2624. According...
