Congressional Democrats — who were hoping to blast Republicans over budget cuts — instead took incoming from their exasperated constituents when they traveled home to host town halls. In Arizona, Sens. Ruben Gallego and Mark Kelly were confronted at a joint forum Monday by an attendee demanding to know if they “would support removing” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer. In Oregon, an audience member told Sen. Ron Wyden and Rep. Janelle Bynum on Sunday that he is “so pissed off right now at the leadership in the United States Senate that they are not willing to step up and fight.”...

Most people worry about their bike or car being stolen — not their home. But that’s exactly what happened to D’Andrea Turner when squatters took over her Phoenix home and sold it without her knowledge. “It feels so surreal,” Turner shared in an interview with ABC 15 Arizona. “I feel like I’m in the Twilight Zone. Really, I didn’t even think something like this could happen.” But it did. After Turner’s ex-husband, Keith — a long-haul trucker — left the house unattended for a period of time, two strangers, Aaron Polmanteer and Lledera Hollen, forced their way in. Once inside,...

President Donald Trump ordered the dismantling of news agency Voice of America, the U.S.'s state-funded media outlet that Trump has railed against for promoting biased media reports.

Trump signed an executive order on Friday that commands the dismantling of seven government offices, including the United States Agency for Global Media, which is the parent company of Voice of America (VOA) and Radio Free...

PHOENIX — On the night of March 13, 1997, thousands of Arizonans looked up and saw something they couldn’t explain—a massive, V-shaped formation of lights hovering in the sky. Twenty-eight years later, the Phoenix Lights remain one of the most infamous UFO sightings in U.S. history, fueling speculation, debate, and ongoing scientific curiosity. Among those who witnessed the phenomenon firsthand was Dr. Lynne Kitei, a former medical professional who was so profoundly impacted that she left her career in medicine to study the lights full-time.

War hero and triple-amputee Brian Kolfage sits in prison for daring to build a Southern Border wall when Congress would not. The SDNY targeted and imprisoned him – the same SDNY that is withholding Epstein files from AG Bondi. Brian Kolfage may die in prison after being convicted on false charges pushed by the corrupt SDNY in a corrupt New York court overseen by corrupt Obama judge, Analisa Torres. Brian did nothing wrong. The judge prevented evidence that would exonerate him from being shared in the court and he was convicted by a biased New York jury that didn’t give...

Senator Mark Kelly (D-AZ) said Friday on MSNBC’s “Chris Jansing Reports” that President Donald Trump’s Oval Office meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was an “utter mess” that “makes us look weak.” Kelly said, “What a complete and utter mess.

Chris we are a superpower. Our power is our military, our economy, our diplomatic corps, our professionalism. This was not professional. We don’t gain anything...

A federal appeals court struck down provisions in two Arizona voting laws that sought to increase proof-of-citizenship requirements for voter registration, saying this week that parts of the law amounted to “voter suppression.” The decision by the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, based in San Francisco, upholds the findings of a lower court that blocked the 2022 Arizona laws signed by then-Gov. Doug Ducey, a Republican. It also sent one of the laws back to the district court to reconsider whether it was enacted with the intention to discriminate. "We’re glad that the 9th Circuit sees these laws for...

Less than three years before Elon Musk tapped him to take part in a sweeping overhaul of the US government, Edward Coristine, then 17, was the subject of a heated dispute between two executives at the Arizona-based cybersecurity firm where he was an intern. At issue was whether to allow Coristine to keep his job even though he was suspected of leaking proprietary information to a competitor. “You’re willing to risk our entire network to a 17-year-old?” one frustrated executive asked the company’s CEO in 2022. “Are you for real right now?” In a recording of the call, reviewed by...

Sen. Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.) and his brother, Scott Kelly, both retired astronauts, on Friday called out tech billionaire Elon Musk over his attacks on an astronaut on his social platform X. “Hey @ElonMusk, when you finally get the nerve to climb into a rocket ship, come talk to the three of us,” the Arizona lawmaker wrote on X in response to Musk’s post calling Danish astronaut Andreas Mogensen “an idiot.” Scott Kelly defended Mogensen after Musk attacked him for challenging his remarks on a recent Fox News interview alongside President Trump.

Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs on Tuesday vetoed a bill to speed up Arizona’s vote-counting process by requiring in-person mail-in ballot drop-offs to be completed before Election Day. Under the new law, voters would still be allowed to send in their ballot or deliver their ballot to the County Recorder’s office by 7 pm on election day, but early in-person drop-offs in ballot drop boxes must be completed by 7 pm on Friday before election day. It can be recalled that Katie Hobbs stole her election for Governor from Trump-Endorsed Kari Lake when 60% of voting machines failed on election day,...

New York -- When a suspicious video of ballots being ripped up in Pennsylvania gained attention on social media last October, federal agencies responded quickly and called it out as Russian disinformation. On Election Day in November, bomb threats to polling places in numerous states caused relatively few disruptions to voting. It’s one of the many scenarios covered by the nation’s cybersecurity agency in its outreach to state and local officials.The Trump administration’s downsizing and disbanding of federal agencies has hit efforts that improve election security and monitor foreign influence. That could create gaps for America’s enemies to exploit the...

Over the weekend, an Obama-appointed judge issued a temporary injunction blocking the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) from accessing sensitive Treasury Department data. While the media frames this as a limited restriction on political appointees and special government employees, the reality appears far more sweeping. Judge Paul Engelmayer’s ruling explicitly bars all political appointees—including Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent—from Treasury payment records and financial systems, restricting access to career civil servants (essentially the Deep State) within the Bureau of Fiscal Services. This unprecedented move effectively prevents the Treasury secretary from overseeing his own department’s financial data, raising serious concerns about executive...

Christina Marie Chapman, a 48-year-old woman from Litchfield Park, Arizona, has pleaded guilty in federal court for her role in a scheme that funneled millions of dollars to North Korea. Over the course of three years, Chapman and her co-conspirators helped overseas IT workers pretend to be U.S. citizens so they could illegally secure remote IT jobs in the United States. The scheme involved more than 300 American companies, including some of the nation’s largest corporations. The fraudulent operation, which ran from October 2020 to October 2023, generated over $17 million in revenue. According to prosecutors, Chapman and her team...
