On Tuesday Senator Chuck Grassley released new information from declassified documents that reveal the FBI blocked an investigation into the allegations that the Chinese Communist Party manufactured thousands of fake driver’s licenses and shipped them to the US in a scheme to help Joe Biden win the election by fraudulent mail-in votes. The FBI hid the investigation in order to protect dirty FBI Director Chris Wray who had lied to Congress about the election. Senator Chuck Grassley reported this earlier today.

President Donald Trump’s administration plans to deport Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a country that’s not his native El Salvador after he’s released from jail in Tennessee, a federal prosecutor told a federal judge in Maryland on Thursday. Justice Department attorney Jonathan Guynn said the removal proceedings would be to a “third country.” But the prosecutor also said there are “no imminent plans” to deport Abrego Garcia and the U.S. government would comply with all court orders. Guynn acknowledged the government’s plans during a hastily planned conference call with Abrego Garcia’s attorneys and U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis in Greenbelt, Maryland....

BOISE – Governor Brad Little and other members of the Board of Examiners approved a request Tuesday to tap up to $300,000 from the Governor’s emergency fund to support the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in transporting hundreds of dangerous illegal alien criminals out of Idaho jails. The action follows the Governor’s announcement earlier this month that the Idaho State Police (ISP) entered into an agreement with ICE under the 287(g) program. In a letter Governor Little sent to ISP Colonel Bill Gardiner in May requesting transportation cost estimates, Governor Little said, “An untold number of illegal immigrants poured...

A radicalized operative—Alexander R. Wick, 38, of Portland, nonbinary activist, ANTIFA recruiter, and CEO of a far-left climate tech front company, Cascadia Carbon Inc.—was arrested for attempting to detonate an improvised explosive device (IED) on Interstate 5, one of the nation’s most critical highways. This wasn’t a spontaneous act. This was an orchestrated act of domestic sabotage tied directly to the radical Left’s foot soldiers—trained, funded, and protected by the same global elite who are panicking under the leadership of President Donald J. Trump, now restored as Commander-in-Chief after defeating Biden in the rigged 2024 election. Let’s break it...

A Mexican national who federal prosecutors say illegally reentered the United States three times was sentenced to nearly a decade behind bars on drug charges. Anastacio Santiago Chaparro, 41, was found by police with a backpack that they say contained 10 kilos of cocaine that he was planning to sell. Chaparro, aka Arnoldo Urquidez, was previously charged in the United States with assault and re-entered the country twice before his most recent arrest.

The dad of a young union worker and socialist activist arrested by the FBI for handing out face shields to dozens of LA rioters said his son isn’t a criminal — but slammed him for supplying the anti-ICE riots, and leading the feds to bust down the door of their family home. Francisco Orellana’s reaction to seeing his son Alejandro “Alex” Orellana driving a truck loaded with supplies for protesters was: “What the f--- are you doing?” The elder Orellana, a US citizen who moved to the US in the 1970s, told The Post the feds handcuffed the whole family...

A man in the midst of an armed robbery and carjacking spree was shot dead when he confronted a concealed carry license holder in Humboldt Park on Tuesday night. Chicago police have not publicly identified the deceased criminal, but Cook County Medical Examiner records show he was 18 years old. Investigators found a recently carjacked Toyota at the shooting scene, along with robbery proceeds that had just been taken from two women in a nearby armed robbery, leading them to conclude that the concealed carry holder ended a robbery spree in progress. Just 18 minutes before the shooting, around 10:30...

Federal immigration authorities said some of the migrants arrested in the Los Angeles area last week had criminal histories that included assault and drug offenses. Nearly 45 people were arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement on Friday alone, as officers swept through several locations, including two Home Depot stores, a store in the fashion district and a doughnut shop, prompting protests that continued through the weekend against immigration enforcement operations in which officers raided businesses to arrest workers. The weeklong tally of migrant arrests in the city surpassed 100. One man has already been sent back to Mexico after being...

Democratic Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass faced backlash on social media Friday, including from members of the Trump administration, for pushing back on Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids targeting illegal immigrants in her city. "This morning, we received reports of federal immigration enforcement actions in multiple locations in Los Angeles," Bass said in a statement on Friday. "As Mayor of a proud city of immigrants, who contribute to our city in so many ways, I am deeply angered by what has taken place. These tactics sow terror in our communities and disrupt basic principles of safety in our city. My...

Fox News has uncovered that almost every pardon and act of clemency Biden signed for over 1,500 criminals during his final weeks in office was via autopen. These included preemptive pardons for several members of his family, Anthony Fauci, and General Mark Milley. But Biden made an exception for the man he once called “the smartest guy I know”: his only surviving son, Hunter. In the document below, you can see Joe Biden’s crooked-looking signature. As TGP’s Kristinn Taylor previously reported, Joe Biden granted his son Hunter Biden a blanket pardon in the federal gun and tax cases against him...

Maxine Waters' campaign has agreed to pay a $68,000 fine after an investigation found it violated multiple election rules.The Federal Election Commission (FEC) said the longtime House lawmaker's 2020 campaign committee, Citizens for Waters, ran afoul of several campaign finance laws in a tranche of documents released Friday.The FEC accused Citizens for Waters of "failing to accurately report receipts and disbursements in calendar year 2020," "knowingly accepting excessive contributions" and "making prohibited cash disbursements," according to one document that appears to be a legally binding agreement that allows both parties to avoid going to court.

California Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters’ congressional campaign has been fined $68,000 for violating several federal campaign finance laws during her 2020 reelection bid.

During this year's SEC Spring Meetings, league commissioner Greg Sankey announced that fines for field stormings will be much more...

The Trump administration “unquestionably” violated a court order when it put eight migrants with violent criminal convictions onto a flight to South Sudan, a Biden-nominated federal judge ruled Wednesday. US District Judge Brian Murphy, who was nominated to the seat by former President Joe Biden in 2024, slammed the White House for failing to provide the men with adequate due process when ordering them on a flight bound to the African nation, of which only one of them is actually from. “The department actions in this case are unquestionably in violation of this court’s order,” the judge said in an...

During Monday’s broadcast of CNN’s “NewsNight,” network contributor Scott Jennings took on liberal author Charles Blow, who insisted the Trump administration’s enforcement of immigration law was devoid of due process, and therefore was unconstitutional. Partial transcript as follows: PHILLIP: You’re describing illegal immigration, which has been around for a long time, as an invasion, which is fine for you if you want to do that, but why is that unusual that there’s a process to go through to deport people? I mean, that’s actually just how the system works. JENNINGS: Do you know how long it takes for this process,...
