    The Western Journal/MSN ^ | 10/01/2025 | Joe Saunders
    On the first day of a federal government shutdown, New York City is finding out how expensive its commitment to leftist principles of "diversity, equity, and inclusion" is going to be under President Donald Trump's administration. Russ Vought, the White House Office of Management and Budget director, took to social media on Wednesday to announce the administration has frozen federal funding for two major transportation projects in the Big Apple. And even in New York City, $18 billion is a lot of money. Russ Vought (on X) @russvought Roughly $18 billion in New York City infrastructure projects have been put...

    Cracks are starting to form in the Senate Democratic caucus over whether to hold the line against a seven-week clean government funding stopgap passed by the House, according to Democratic sources who say a threat by President Trump to lay off thousands of federal workers is changing the Democratic political calculus on a shutdown. Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (N.Y.), who faces a potential primary challenge from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) in 2028, has made it clear he won’t vote for the House-passed GOP stopgap, but centrists in his caucus are looking for a way to avoid a catastrophic shutdown....
  • Obama Presidential Center deposits just $1M into $470M reserve fund aimed to protect taxpayers

    Fox News ^ | 9/27/25 | Michael Dorgan
    When the Obama Foundation snagged a sweetheart deal to build its beleaguered Obama Presidential Center on a Chicago public park, it pledged to create a $470 million reserve fund to spare taxpayers should the project ever go belly up. But new tax filings show the foundation has only deposited $1 million into the fund and has not added to it in years, with critics saying the empty promise could potentially leave Chicagoans on the hook for hundreds of millions of dollars. Under its agreement with the city, the foundation was required to create the fund, known as an endowment, in...

    NBC ^ | 9/26/25 | Lawrence Hurley
    WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Friday handed another win to the Trump administration by allowing it to withhold $4 billion in spending on foreign aid that was appropriated by Congress. A federal judge had previously ruled that the administration would have to spend the funds by the end of the month, but the Supreme Court's decision puts that on hold. The brief order noted that the government has made a "sufficient showing" that the groups that sued were barred from bringing the lawsuit in question under a law called the Impoundment Control Act. The court, which has a 6-3...

    FOX News contributor Mollie Hemingway told FOX News host Martha MacCallum that people need to take the powerful, well-funded interests more seriously following the assassination of Charlie Kirk. MARTHA MACCALLUM, FOX NEWS HOST: Charlie Kirk, known for vibrant debates and his willingness to exchange ideas with anyone doing so across college campuses and even here on "The Story." CHARLIE KIRK: The MAGA doctrine that he has started is only going to continue to grow. Philosophically, I believe he has changed the Republican Party for the better, ending the endless wars, renegotiating trade deals, challenging entrenched corporate interests and giving a...

    Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, wants the House to form a select committee on “The money, influence, and power behind the radical left’s assault on America and the rule of law.” “In the wake of numerous attacks on our way of life, the destruction of the rule of law, and the murder of innocent Americans, prominent and unknown alike, we must take every step to follow the money and uncover the force behind the NGOs, donors, media, public officials, and all entities driving this coordinated attack,” Roy said Thursday in a press release.

    In a bombshell development that has rocked the political landscape, federal investigators have uncovered financial transactions linking Tyler Robinson, the confessed assassin of conservative firebrand Charlie Kirk, to the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA). According to sources familiar with the ongoing probe, Robinson received multiple wire transfers from DSA-affiliated accounts in the months leading up to the fatal shooting in Orem, Utah. The funds, totaling over $50,000, were funneled through shell organizations ostensibly for "community organizing" efforts but appear to have directly supported Robinson's logistics, including travel and weapon acquisition. Prominent DSA members, including Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) and New...

    Charlie Kirk’s assassination was a terrorist attack meant to discourage the conservative movement. Even before authorities had suspected sniper Tyler Robinson in custody, we knew it was likely the work of a radicalized mind brainwashed by far-left extremist rhetoric so vile that he thought it was okay to kill someone. Where does this radicalization come from? Follow the money.Conservative Mike Cernovich was correct in his Wednesday X post calling for a congressional investigation into the funding of far-left extremism. Our political climate is not an accident. Provocative leftist ideologies pushed with guerrilla marketing are used to manipulate weak minds. Influence...

    President Donald Trump suggested on Friday his administration will pursue federal charges against billionaire Democratic donor George Soros, part of a long history of threatening his political opponents with criminal proceedings. “We’re going to look into Soros,” Trump said on “Fox & Friends,” “because I think it’s a RICO case against him and other people.” “Because this is more than like protests,” Trump added. “This is real agitation. This is riots on the street. And we’re going to look into it.” Trump previously floated charging Soros and his son under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act in August on...

    PBS informed 34 staffers Thursday they were being laid off as part of a broader downsizing effort that's resulted in 100 jobs being cut in recent months. The cuts were triggered in part by the Trump administration’s rescission package, which slashed over $1 billion in federal funding for public broadcasting. "Due to the loss of federal funding, PBS eliminated close to 100 positions over the last several months, including 34 valued PBS staff members notified yesterday their employment is ending.

    There are times when reading a list of projects funded by the United States federal government sounds more like parody than reality. The Department of Government Efficiency — unlike Congress, it seems — is still working hard every day to identify and eliminate waste and fraud from the federal government funded by our taxpayer dollars. And this week’s update included some profoundly idiotic programs and grants that were, until now, recipients of our hard-earned cash. DOGE normally releases a contracts update on X on Fridays highlighting some of the stupidest agency contracts that it has discovered in the last week,...

Despite the U.S. government's saying that it will prevent waste and ensure tax money is used properly, it will have a profound impact on international research collaboration, particularly for African researchers, institutions, and communities, writes Juanita Williams for allAfrica.

    A Texas judge ruled Friday against Beto O’Rourke and his nonprofit in a case brought by state Attorney General Ken Paxton, who accused them of illegally raising funds to support Democratic lawmakers fleeing the state to block GOP redistricting legislation. Tarrant County District Judge Megan Fahey handed down a temporary restraining order Friday evening against O'Rourke, a former congressman and Democratic presidential candidate, and his group, Powered by People, over alleged "unlawful fundraising practices" tied to efforts to support Texas Democrats who fled the state — including funding air travel, lodging, logistics and daily fines.

    President Donald Trump’s administration is considering a move, called a “pocket rescission,” that would effectively rescind federal funding and potentially bypass congressional approval, Office of Management and Budget Director Russ Vought said on July 27.The strategy occurs when a president submits a rescission proposal under the Impoundment Control Act—requesting Congress to cancel previously appropriated funds—within 45 days of the end of the fiscal year, Sept. 30. The funds are withheld during the 45-day congressional review period, and if Congress doesn’t act before the fiscal year ends, the funds expire.When a rescission request is made outside of the fiscal year-end window,...
