The Biden administration rubber-stamped more than 99% of sponsor applications for unaccompanied migrant children in fiscal year 2024 — leaving kids vulnerable to rapists, gang members and murderers because of the “less stringent” vetting process, according to a memo obtained by The Post. The Department of Health and Human Services processed almost half-a-million migrant kids between 2021 and 2024 who were placed with sponsors by the Office of Refugee Resettlement — but by Biden’s final year in office virtually none of the applications from households taking in the kids were denied. In one horrific instance investigated by HHS, a 15-year-old...

Democratic efforts to revamp the Supreme Court gained momentum Thursday as an influential center-left think tank released a plan to limit justices’ terms and misconduct. Third Way’s proposal, shared first with POLITICO, highlights growing unity across the ideological spectrum in the Democratic Party for significant changes to the high court as Americans’ trust in the institution hovers at historic lows. The group says it also wants to inject ideas to overhaul the court — including legislation to set an 18-year term limit and an enforceable ethics code — into the party’s conversations leading up to the 2028 presidential race. “This...

On Wednesday’s broadcast of Bloomberg’s “Balance of Power,” Rep. Ami Bera (D-CA) said that Senate Democrats are blocking the Ratepayer Protection Act, which passed the House 417-3, because of “politics that are coming into play.” And if it were up to him, he’d forget the politics and pass the bill.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) wrote a 26-page letter to the American people on Tuesday, urging them to vote for Democrats in the midterms. “Although American politicians often win your votes through deception and false promises, as Trump did, you can change the makeup of the government if you apply the criteria for good leadership in choosing the people you vote into office,” the IRGC said. “Remove from power the evil, deceitful, and violent politicians who are responsible for America’s current state.” The IRGC then asked Americans to “take back control.” The letter referred to Trump as a tyrant...

Mike Netter@nettermike·16hFor those that still don’t understand what Benghazi was all about:🚨mSo here's the REAL story:Ambassador Stevens was sent to Benghazi to secretly retrieve US made Stinger Missiles that the State Dept had supplied to Ansar al Sharia in Libya WITHOUT Congressional oversight or permission.Sec State Hillary Clinton had brokered the Libya deal through Ambassador Stevens and a Private Arms Dealer named Marc Turi, but some of the shoulder fired Stinger Missiles ended up in Afghanistan where they were used against our own military.

Jeffrey Soros, the nephew of billionaire Democrat donor George Soros, told guests at a Monday night fundraiser that he has known Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed since 2012, when he interviewed him for a family fellowship that later helped pay for the candidate’s graduate education. The Hollywood producer, who serves as CEO of the Los Angeles Media Fund, hosted El-Sayed at his California home for the closed-door event, according to footage obtained by Fox News Digital. Organizers asked attendees not to record. Standing beside El-Sayed, Soros welcomed the room before recounting how the two met. “I just wanted to...

A spiritual leader called upon his followers to repent for eating beef and raising cattle. But he’s not a religiously observant vegetarian in India. He’s a Democrat in the big cattle state of Kansas and is running for U.S. senator. An exclusive by Fox News Monday morning reported that nominee Adam Hamilton, who for years led the largest United Methodist church in the nation, often gave “woke” sermons at odds with the state’s culture and agrarian economy. The minister is seeking to unseat one-term Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS). Kansas is the nation’s third-largest producer of beef, according to the Kansas...

I ignored the written description of filtering the other night,” Molly Gaston messaged her fellow federal prosecutor, J.P. Cooney, in the early days of the post-2020 election targeting of President Donald Trump, documents obtained exclusively by The Federalist reveal. “Me too,” Cooney replied, showing that two of the attorneys whom Jack Smith would later choose to lead the special counsel team disregarded rules when judged “not tenable.” And additional documents whistleblowers provided Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, confirm the special counsel office ignored the protocol established to protect privileged documents. Monday afternoon, in advance of Jack Smith’s Tuesday testimony before the...

Congressman Tom Suozzi is making waves for a two-sentence clip that has now gone wildly viral. The New York Democrat has been consistently inconsistent on his immigration stance for years now. But he left no political wiggle room with these two sentences, as shared by the popular RNC Research account on X. The so-called ‘moderate’ may have unintentionally nailed himself to a precise policy on the issue once and for all! Let’s begin right there, with what he actually said — shall we? Here’s the clip in question, currently standing at 7.6 million views as of the time I am...

The justice’s dissent over the SAVE voter-verification system continues her increasingly public dispute with the Court’s majority. The Supreme Court ruled on Friday that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) may use the SAVE (Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements) database for voter-verification purposes. Pursuant to an executive order issued by President Trump last March, about half of the nation’s 50 states have been accessing the database to assure that their voter rolls contain only American citizens living within their jurisdictions. In June, however, Biden-appointed District Judge Sparkle Sooknanan ruled that it was unconstitutional for the DHS to share the database...

As Minnesota’s Department of Human Services struggles to contain a sweeping fraud crisis involving taxpayer-funded programs, one of the state’s top Medicaid officials has another undertaking on his calendar: helping raise campaign cash for Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan. Dr. Nathan Chomilo serves as medical director for Minnesota’s Medicaid and MinnesotaCare programs, which are now under intense state and federal oversight amid a multibillion-dollar fraud crisis that has unfolded during the Walz-Flanagan administration. But on Oct. 1, the money on Chomilo’s agenda won’t be Medicaid dollars. It will be campaign cash for Flanagan. Chomilo is listed as one of six hosts...

Fifty-nine percent of Democrats now call themselves supporters of the Democratic Socialists of America. That’s scary because the stated goals of the DSA are not some bloated European welfare state but a radical overhaul of American society. It’s an overhaul that would eventually cost us both our economic and democratic freedoms. A new Quinnipiac poll did not sugarcoat wording to ask about “fairness” instead of socialism or whether people were “open-minded” to so-called “democratic socialist” policies. It directly asked, “On political matters, do you consider yourself a supporter of the Democratic Socialists of America, or not?” Twenty-six percent of those...

Gavin Newsom finally admits closing beaches during COVID was “insane,” and Bill Maher says he should have figured that out WHEN IT MATTERED! He adds Newsom's COVID rules were the exact OPPOSITE of what should have been done. Closing beaches was just the start: • Banned singing at church • Banned indoor church services until the Supreme Court stepped in • Shut down Bible studies in private homes until the Supreme Court blocked it • Rammed through the country's first COVID vaccine mandates for kids • Told diners to keep their masks on “in between bites” • Signed a law...

An abiding mystery of this lunatic Fourth Turning is how it came to be that the supposed intellectual elite of America was the class that so shamelessly lost its collective mind, got behind ideas that ranged from absurd to disgraceful — “Defund the Police,” “boys in the girl’s locker room,” “voter ID is unfair,” “dismantle capitalism,” “no one is illegal,” “mostly peaceful riots,” “Covid vaccine mandates” “CIA-run censorship,” — and finally decided to march under the banner of communism, history’s most floridly ruinous political program.The answer is that intellectuals are in the employ of the racketeering operation that is Washington’s...

Nick Shirley takes his viral Minnesota fraud investigation directly to Congress, describing daycares with blacked-out windows, public funding and no children visible during his visits. He says federal action followed his reporting, including a freeze on $185 million in child-care funding.

The California Supreme Court ruled that Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco violated the state's election law by ordering his deputies to seize more than 650,000 ballots tied to the Proposition 50 special election. The justices ruled unanimously in two cases against Bianco, stating that he violated the law when he seized the ballots and also ignored directives from Attorney General Rob Bonta. The court ordered Bianco to cease his investigation into election fraud claims and return the ballots to county officials. The court also said he must "refrain from further handling of the ballots except as necessary to comply with...
