    This is one of those stories you sort of hear about a couple of weeks before, and maybe forget about unless some little nugget of information comes along that makes you want to dig a little deeper into it. Which is exactly what happened to me this morning.I do recall maybe even commenting on X when the first word about this broke. The big story was the raid on Glenn Valley Foods in Omaha, Nebraska, about two weeks ago. It wasn't so much the raid itself, but the number of illegals that they rounded up, which caught people's attention at...

    Congress issued subpoenas Tuesday to compel testimony from two ActBlue witnesses, significantly escalating a probe into whether the massive online fund-raising platform allowed itself to be misused by foreigners to route improper donations to Democrats in the 2024 election. The subpoenas issued by House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, House Oversight Chairman James Comer and House Administration Chairman Bryan Steil require the two witnesses, former ActBlue Vice President of Customer Service Alyssa Twomey and a senior workflow specialist, to appear for testimony by July 15. Both witnesses were offered a chance to voluntarily submit to transcribed interviews, but their lawyer...

    The New York City mayor's race is this way by design. The polls showing that Zohran Mamdani, a socialist and Muslim terror supporter who only became a citizenship in 2018, could become the mayor of New York City, where his compatriots murdered thousands of Americans, may or may not be true, but there’s no reason why they wouldn’t be. Mamdani is up against Cuomo, a repulsive and widely hated figure that opponents of the Muslim socialist are only getting behind because the alternative is even worse, and then Mayor Eric Adams, whom much of the city probably right believes is...

    U.S. Secretary of Energy Chris Wright is slamming the Biden administration for what he calls an “absolutely infuriating” last-minute spending spree, revealing that more than $90 billion in green energy loans were pushed through by the Department of Energy’s Loan Programs Office in the weeks between President Donald Trump’s 2024 reelection and his January inauguration. In an interview with Breitbart News Washington Bureau Chief Matt Boyle, Wright detailed the results of a newly completed review of the Department of Energy’s Loan Programs Office, revealing that “more than $90 billion in loans were closed or committed in the 76 days between...

    The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) is irredeemable and must be eliminated through legislation. Failure to do so leaves the door open for future administrations to reinvigorate it and reintroduce destructive ideas and agendas into U.S. foreign policy. The idea of “development” has become too obtuse and colonized by progressives to keep the agency limited in scope beyond the Trump administration.

    Groups like this fixate on the number of individuals with health insurance coverage, regardless of whether those individuals engage in fraud.The left is ignoring potential fraud to pursue its own ideological objectives.That’s the shorter version of a series of analyses regarding the House-passed reconciliation bill released in recent days by the Kaiser Family Foundation. The organization, and other leftist groups like it, fixate solely on the number of individuals with health insurance coverage — regardless of whether those individuals engage in fraud, or even whether those individuals belong in this country.The Kaiser analyses create state-by-state breakdowns of projected changes in...

    The EU cloaks supranational tax increases in green.On the hunt for fresh sources of cash, the European Commission has zeroed in on households and motorists. A planned expansion of the EU’s carbon pricing scheme to include home heating and transportation fuels is set to plug Brussels’ gaping budget deficit — at the expense of its citizens. What we are witnessing is a fiscal smash-and-grab dressed up in green. Starting in 2027, private homes, small businesses, and passenger vehicles will be folded into a second emissions trading system (ETS2), placing them under the strict control of EU-level cap-and-trade mechanisms. This bureaucratic...

    American Greatness. ^ | June 21, 2025 | Stephen Soukup
    California can’t build housing or railroads on time or on budget—and thanks to a bloated, value-driven bureaucracy, neither can the rest of America. Just over two months ago, the Rand Corporation released a study on the cost of producing multi-family housing in three states: California, Colorado, and Texas. The results were paradoxically shocking, yet utterly predictable. California, it turns out, is a ridiculous place, run by ridiculous people, with ridiculous regulations. Or, as the folks at Rand put it, “The average market-rate apartment in California is roughly two and a half times the cost of a similar apartment constructed in...

    South Africa can expect roughly 44% of its population (28.7 million) on social grants, relying on only 12% (7.4 million) taxpayers. This imbalance between the number of grant recipients and taxpayers highlights a significant concern for the nation’s fiscal health, as nearly half of South Africa’s 64 million people depend on social assistance. The South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) data for 2023/24 underlines the scale of reliance, which includes a range of grants for elderly people, children, disabled individuals, and others in need. Moreover, 9 million individuals receive the Social Relief of Distress (SRD) grant, initially introduced in 2020...

    Rep. Abe Hamadeh (R-AZ) sent a letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi on Tuesday, asking the DOJ to investigate “credible claims” of election security violations involving the Arizona-based ballot printing firm, Runbeck Election Services. Runbeck provides ballot printing and mail-in ballot services in 31 states and 54% of the nation’s voters, according to its website. The Gateway Pundit has reported extensively on this shady private entity, which was founded by leftists and transports and scans Maricopa County mail-in ballots with no oversight or chain of custody before they are processed and counted by the County. As revealed in Trump-Endorsed former...

    The fire aid concert raised over a $100 Million, but where did all the money go? Jimmy Dore went to the the Annenberg Foundation who are in charge of the funds, to find out more. After repeated emails, phone calls, etc with no replies, they eventually heard from Barbara Chen of Annenberg. Turns out most of the money went into the pockets of NGO’s, etc with just 30% going to the actual victims of the fire. Anyone surprised? Nope. This is LA after all.

I was pushed and pulled, struggled to maintain my balance. I was forced to the ground — first on my knees and...

    Dozens of criminal illegal aliens were arrested on June 10 at an Omaha, Nebraska, food plant. All were using the stolen identities of Americans to lend legitimacy to their employment standing. The Department of Homeland Security put the number of those arrested at "approximately 70." All were detained during an Immigration and Customs Enforcement raid at a Green Valley Foods plant. ICE agents, carrying warrants, entered the facility to begin making arrests following a months-long investigative effort. Mark Zito leads the regional Homeland Security Investigations office involved in the case. He said some people in the area have offered misguided...

    FBI Director Kash Patel turned over agency documents on Monday to Congress about an alleged Chinese plot to use fake drivers licenses for securing fraudulent mail-in ballots during the 2020 election. Perhaps even more shockingly, or maybe not so shockingly, that same report had been submitted to American intelligence agencies back in August 2020, before it was “suddenly recalled with little explanation,”... Patel informed the public on Monday about the alleged plot and announced that he turned over the documents to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, a Republican from Iowa. The FBI has located documents which detail alarming allegations...
