President Donald Trump’s United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is reportedly setting out an ambitious plan to strip citizenship from naturalized Americans who are found to have fraudulently secured the legal status. The denaturalization plan, detailed in The New York Times, will be spearheaded by USCIS Director Joe Edlow and focus on referring 100 to 200 denaturalization cases every month to the agency’s Office of Immigration Litigation. “If the cases are successful, it would represent a massive escalation of denaturalization in the modern era, experts said. By comparison, between 2017 and this year to date, there had been just...

The Trump administration’s focus on immigration enforcement across the country is alleviating the heavy burden of illegals diverting public services, as school systems are reporting significant drops in enrollment after having been overrun with countless migrants, many of whom do not speak English. “One of the victims of Biden’s open border polices was America’s students whose schools became overcrowded[;] teachers, aides and resources, including for disabled students, were diverted to the millions of illegal aliens the Biden Administration flooded into our country,” Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs Tricia McLaughlin told The Federalist. “President Trump is...

* When politics consumes every waking hour, something closer to home is usually being avoided. * Activism becomes dangerous when it replaces responsibility instead of living alongside it. * Rage aimed outward often masks chaos that no one wants to confront inward. * You can scream about saving the country and still fail to notice your own family falling apart. * Obsession is not conviction, and it doesn’t make anyone a better parent. ================================================================= BRIEFING Jett here. Politics didn’t just get louder over the last decade; it got uglier, meaner, and way more personal. But when Trump came down that...

Since January 2025, over 250 attorneys—roughly 70%—have left, been reassigned, or accepted deferred resignation offers from the U.S. Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division, signaling an unprecedented weakening of the agency responsible for enforcing federal civil rights law. This mass exodus follows the appointment of Trump ally Harmeet Dhillon, who has refocused the division’s priorities toward conservative causes such as voter fraud investigations and curbing transgender rights, while sidelining traditional civil rights enforcement in areas like housing discrimination, education, and police oversight. Entire sections, including Voting Rights and Title VI enforcement, have been reduced to fewer than five attorneys—or none...

Some members of Congress are up in arms over a briefing by a senior administration lawyer who told them the Trump administration had no intention of adhering to the War Powers Resolution regarding the ongoing interdiction campaign against Venezuelan drug cartels. According to the Washington Post, T. Elliot Gaiser, head of the Trump administration’s Office of Legal Counsel, said the administration did not believe the strikes met the definition of hostilities under the law and did not intend to seek an extension of the deadline nor Congress’s approval of ongoing action.Heads popped. “The administration appears to be blowing through the...

Bukele is now a verb. To ‘Bukele’ something is to fix a problem that liberals say is ‘too complicated’ by simply ignoring their long-winded excuses and just doing the obvious. It is named after the leader of El Salvador, Nayib Bukele, who has turned a country that was once dubbed the murder capital of the world into one of the safest. Meanwhile, Britain, once Europe’s most orderly nation, is mired in rape gangs, knife crime, and shoplifting. The UK doesn’t need Bukele-style mega-prisons, but it certainly needs his clarity. The problem is that our elites in Westminster have mastered the...

While President Trump is working overtime to keep America safe and undo the disaster Joe Biden left behind when he opened our borders. Biden flung open the floodgates and let millions of illegals pour into this country, many with serious criminal records. We’ve all seen the headlines: violent crimes, repeat offenders, and senseless tragedies that could have been prevented. One of the biggest obstacles President Trump is facing is the Democrats. Activist immigration judges, to be exact. These activist judges are working just as hard to keep illegals in the country as Trump’s administration has been working to get them...

Donald Trump is our first Old Testament president.Where critics view him as a self-absorbed tyrant bent on settling personal scores, he is more akin to the stern Yahweh of the Hebrew Bible who punishes wrongdoers to restore order to a broken world.His quest for retribution is less a small-minded push to vanquish his enemies than a (small-“c”) catholic program to hold bad actors accountable for misdeeds that sends a larger message about acceptable conduct.His simple message: Behave!Trump is not a god – he’s never even played one on TV. Because he’s a fallible human being in a complex world, his...

A State Department contractor stole thousands of pages of “TOP SECRET” classified documents and met with Beijing officials. Ashley Tellis, an expert on India and South Asian affairs, removed the top secret documents from secure locations and met with Chinese officials. The classified documents were located in Tellis’s Virginia home during a raid. “On Sept. 25, he allegedly printed U.S. Air Force documents concerning military aircraft capabilities. Federal prosecutors allege that he met with Chinese government officials multiple times over the past several years,” Fox News reported. Prosecutors said in September 2022 that Tellis brought a manila envelope with him...

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) announced on October 10 that the administration had approved nearly $4.5 billion for hundreds of miles of “smart wall” along the southern border... ...The agencies awarded 10 contracts in late September, adding nearly 400 miles of new security technology and 230 miles of “smart wall,” according to the release.

President Trump on Friday said the ongoing layoffs of furloughed federal workers amid the government shutdown will be “Democrat-oriented.” “And it will be Democrat-oriented, because we figure, you know, they started this thing,” he said in the Oval Office about the firings and shutdown. “It’ll be a lot.” The administration offered no specifics on which agencies or how many people would be affected when it announced the layoffs earlier Friday. But at least 4,100 government employees were already laid off. Here is The Hill’s list of agencies affected so far. The Senate voted against the House GOP bill to open...

BREAKING: President Trump ON THE SPOT orders Secretary Marco Rubio to designate Antifa as a FOREIGN terrorist organization "It's what I'd like to do. Everybody agree? Let's get it done. OK, Marco? We'll take care of it."

Lawyers have a notoriously bad (and often well-earned) reputation. But one thing you have to hand them is this: If there's a loophole, they'll find it. Such appears to be the case with those advising the Trump administration as it navigates the bevy of lawsuits filed in an effort to #ResistWeMuch its efforts to enforce immigration law and restore law and order to a number of blue cities and states. As Jennifer Oliver O'Connell reported, on Saturday, an Oregon district court judge issued a temporary restraining order blocking the administration's deployment of 200 National Guard troops to Portland, Oregon. n...

The Constitution doesn’t give the president explicit authority over election law.President Trump said late Saturday that he would issue an executive order to require voter identification for all U.S. elections, a continuation of his efforts to overhaul the nation’s election laws, which he has long attacked and falsely blamed for his 2020 election loss.In a post on Truth Social, Mr. Trump said, “Voter I.D. Must Be Part of Every Single Vote. NO EXCEPTIONS! I Will Be Doing An Executive Order To That End!!!” He did not provide further...

The software company founded by billionaire Peter Thiel has enabled his buddy, President Donald Trump, to conduct hardcore AI lawfare beyond its previous bounds. Those bounds appear to now include the Federal Reserve Board after Trump told its Governor Lisa Cook she was fired earlier this week. The hit was achieved with - snip - Bill Pulte, who seized a chance to make a mark for himself when President Trump appointed him to the usually low-profile position of director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA). Pulte took his first big step toward becoming his own man back in May,...

President Trump revealed during a Friday White House statement that after federal troops "clean up" Washington, D.C., Chicago is "next," followed by New York City. PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: Chicago's a mess. You have an incompetent mayor, grossly incompetent, and we'll straighten that one out probably next. That'll be our next one after this. And it won't even be tough, and the people in Chicago, Mr. Vice President, are screaming for us to come. They're wearing red hats just like this one, but they're wearing red hats.

We’re having a News Conference tomorrow in the White House. I’m going to make our Capital safer and more beautiful than it ever was before. The Homeless have to move out, IMMEDIATELY.
