The Trump administration is pushing for a legal agreement that would task a federal judge with supervising Columbia University, which is fighting to restore federal funding, according to a published report. The Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday the federal government’s antisemitism task force wants to resolve its dispute with Columbia through a settlement known as a “consent decree.” A consent decree may be used to ensure Columbia follows through on changes negotiated with the federal government. If college administrators break such an agreement, which is legally binding, the university may have to pay a fine or face other penalties....

FIRST ON FOX: Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly of Arizona, who ditched his Tesla last month, refused to label recent violence at Tesla dealerships in protest of Elon Musk’s DOGE efforts as "domestic terrorism," a term that has been used by Republicans and the Justice Department. "Certainly vandalism and it's a crime," Kelly told Fox News Digital when asked if the violence at Tesla dealerships in response to DOGE amounted to terrorism. "It's a significant crime, especially if you're going to firebomb a car or vandalize somebody's vehicle or even key somebody's vehicle. They shouldn't be doing it. And these should...

An Arizona woman claimed she was boxed in on a busy highway and beaten up by another driver who targeted her for driving a Tesla. The 61-year-old woman, who goes by Susan, told Arizona's Family that she driving was along Route 66 in Flagstaff on March 18 when another vehicle started chasing her. Shocking footage of the attack showed the green car pulling up next to Susan's Tesla, then swerving in front to box her in. The driver of the green car approached Susan while she was still at the wheel, then allegedly started attacking her. 'I started to say,...

VIDEOThe left is doing themselves no favors by putting themselves out there, apparently every Saturday, for the "Tesla Takedowns." All it does is further expose themselves to the public as mental cases as you can see in the compendium of videos from their March 29 protests against mental health. Despite the trip down Derangement Lane, this video ends on an upbeat note with a video clip from a normal person.

Shouts rang out last Saturday at the Tesla dealership on Tyco Road in Tysons, as they have across the country since late February when fiery #TeslaTakedown protests started targeting Tesla founder Elon Musk for his work in the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE.“Recall Elon!” “People over profits!”A man shouted into a bullhorn: “Tell me what democracy looks like.”The crowd responded, “This is what democracy looks like.”But as the man juggled an anti-Elon sign, his bullhorn and a script with pre-written chants, the Tyco Road protest, its organizers, and its participants revealed a broader story about the #TeslaTakedown events popping...

The Republican Party of New Mexico's headquarters in Albuquerque was intentionally set on fire in an act of arson and vandalized with a spray-painted phrase "ICE=KKK." Why It Matters During his 2024 campaign, President Donald Trump promised mass deportations of undocumented and criminal migrants, a policy that has been shown to be popular among voters across the political spectrum, before and after the election. However, the administration has faced backlash for invoking the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, allowing the administration to deport noncitizens without the opportunity for a hearing before an immigration or federal court judge, and for revoking...

"Who is funding and organizing all these paid protests?" Musk posted to X early Sunday morning, accompanied by a video clip of podcast host Joe Rogan discussing left-wing protests in recent days. A "Tesla Takedown" movement formed in recent days, with more than 200 protests planned on Saturday in the U.S., and another few hundred planned protests in Canada and Europe as part of the "global day of action."

Mexico City (AFP) – US President Donald Trump’s anti-woke and anti-migrant policies have convinced hordes of Americans to either move to, or stay put in, neighbouring Mexico. Americans have long been lured to Mexico by its weather, culture and lower cost of living. Now some of the US citizens heading south of the border say they have another reason: President Donald Trump. Discrimination, the erosion of civil rights, government cutbacks, polarising rhetoric and Trump's war on "woke" are among the motivations these new expats give for not wanting to live in the United States. Four Americans told AFP about why...

All over the United States, Leftist groups (commies undercover) are protesting at Tesla dealerships. Why? They don't like Elon Musk because he's helping the climate with his cars and he is helping save taxpayers money. What a monster. MANY TWEETS AT LINK........................... This particular protest is happening in the backyard of Conservative firebrand and media personality Dana Loesch. Apparently, this is a staged protest. This is the least surprising news all day. Please share all the footage! All the conservatives in the area should meet up. Even one is one too many, honestly. Actually, the people paying them should be...

My headline above paraphrases somewhat the insane position of Congressman Dan Goldman (D-New York), but so slightly that I think I can be forgiven. In a tweet posted earlier this week, Goldman’s reaction to a new federal task force aimed at investigating and catching the terrorists who have been firebombing Tesla dealerships and vandalizing Tesla cars was as follows: This is the political weaponization of the DOJ. Trump uses his official authority to defend his benefactor Elon Musk. The FBI then creates a task force to use our law enforcement to “crack down” on adversaries of Musk’s. Where are the...

The incident, which took place earlier this week, led to an investigation that ultimately identified the suspect.
