  • GOP lawmaker says he will move to expel Omar

    The Hill ^ | 10/23/26 | Ford McCracken
    Rep. Randy Fine (R-Fla.) said Friday he plans to introduce a resolution to expel Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) if a federal investigation finds she broke the law. The Florida Republican is a conservative firebrand sometimes known for his controversial comments, including describing Omar as a “terrorist” in 2025, a comment House Democrats condemned as racist. Fine told The Hill’s broadcast partner NewsNation he had already reached out to the Department of Justice (DOJ) to ask for more details on the investigation into Omar. Omar’s Washington home was raided by federal immigration authorities Oct. 12 as part of a criminal investigation...

    Pennywise lives — in the sewers of Maryland. A mysterious man living in Baltimore’s sewers has allegedly been taunting and chasing kids down the street, according to an irate mother. Unique Wiggins initially didn’t believe her children when they told her a creep lurking in the sewers was bothering and harrasing them, WJZ reported. But after repeated complaints, the mom decided to investigate the subterranean nuisance. “It was a Friday, and my daughter, who is 21, called and she was panicking. And I asked, ‘What’s wrong?’ And she said, ‘Mom, I’m scared. The man told me I can’t walk right...

  • Defiant Ilhan Omar dodges questions as federal probe into sham marriage, name hits boiling point

    Rep. Ilhan Omar insisted she’ll keep voting in Minnesota as feds probe her immigration history, brushing off questions about whether the investigation could threaten her US citizenship. Omar spoke briefly after casting her ballot in Minnesota, where she’s up for reelection amid a federal immigration probe into whether she married her brother, lied about her birthday and has been living under an alias. Asked by reporters whether this would be her last time being able to vote, Omar defiantly shot back: “No, and I’ll continue to vote.” The congresswoman then hurried away from reporters and said federal officials haven’t told...

    France is on fire. Cars torched, city halls ablaze, hundreds of police officers injured, businesses looted, and the media still calls it “student protests.” It is nothing of the sort. It is a calculated campaign by organized, well-financed hard-left networks to sow anarchy across Western civilization. And according to Issues & Insights, the Democratic Socialists of America already have the playbook to bring the same chaos here. DataRepublican, the Pentagon analyst turned online investigator, has obtained thousands of transcripts and hundreds of recordings from DSA-aligned strategy sessions. The public pitch is familiar: abolish the Senate, impose term limits, dismantle constitutional...

    La Brújula Verde reports that an iron window grille has been unearthed near a Roman house at Augusta Raurica, the site of an ancient settlement on the banks of the Rhine River in northwestern Switzerland. Five bars, two crosspieces, and rings that were likely used to attach the grille to a wooden window frame were recovered. Archaeologists also found two nails. The grill had been set in a wall made of stone and mortar that has since collapsed. The building has not yet been dated. To read about previous finds from Augusta Raurica, go to "Oops!

    n January of 2023, I wrote about a story where I thought, “This might be the most absurd thing I will ever cover." Here’s the short version: The Brits are no strangers to woke insanity themselves, as the British Museum has now decided to no longer refer to wrapped-up long-dead ancient Egyptians as “mummies” because it might offend them—even though they’re no longer alive to be offended. But I was wrong; things, especially when leftists get their hands on them, can always get more ludicrous, and indeed they did at Glasgow's Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Scotland. My DNA...

    Here’s one war that should’ve started years ago: Team Trump’s drive to stamp out fraud is still ramping up, but is already saving the public billions. This week alone, federal, state and local authorities conducted a string of fresh raids and made arrests, including in New York and California, as part of a nationwide crackdown on Medicaid fraud. Homeland Security also launched a massive operation to snare illegal immigrants who fraudulently stole $40 million in food stamps, bringing the total in food-stamp fraud ID’d so far to $641 million. The feds have also destroyed more than 2,200 illegal merchant SNAP...
  • Ex-Mexican attorney general could face treason case over deaths of two US embassy officials working for CIA

    A former Mexican state attorney general could face trial for treason over accusations that he illegally launched a joint operation with the CIA without telling the federal government. The operation to dismantle a drug lab in the state of Chihuahua in northern Mexico in April drew attention after two CIA agents and two state officials died in a car accident on their way back. That raised questions about the Trump administration’s actions on Mexican soil, and outraged President Claudia Sheinbaum, who has made a strong defense of national sovereignty a centerpiece of her administration. The state district attorney, César Jáuregui,...

    Former Vice President Kamala Harris’ attempt to inspire voters at a Democratic rally in Mississippi fell flat Thursday after she was forced to repeat a confusing quote in a far-from-full high school gym. “You know, I mentor a lot of young people, and I talk to them sometimes and part of the advice I give them is, you know, never let someone else with limited ability to see your capacity be a limitation on your ambition,” Harris said at the Columbus, Miss., rally for Democratic Senate hopeful Scott Colom. The applause line received barely any reaction from the crowd, prompting...

    President Donald Trump called for U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar to immediately resign from Congress on Thursday after a federal court filing allegedly identified the Minnesota Democrat as “Ilhan Nur Said Elmi, a/k/a Ilhan Abdullahi Omar.” Speaking at a rally in Iowa, Trump seized on the allegation while discussing Omar and longstanding allegations surrounding her former marriage. “It was just revealed just a little while ago that ... her name is not Ilhan Omar, the one that she used to get elected and sworn into Congress,” Trump said. “She used a fake name to be sworn in. I assume she must...

    Federal prosecutors have identified Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., in a court filing as "Ilhan Nur Said Elmi," listing the name the Minnesota Democrat uses publicly as an alias. The name renews scrutiny of long-running claims about her past marriage. The filing, submitted Wednesday in Washington's federal court by U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro's office, refers to her as "Ilhan Nur Said Elmi, a/k/a Ilhan Abdullahi Omar." It asks a judge to keep a search warrant for Omar's home sealed until agents finish executing it, after The New York Times and other outlets sought its release. Fox News Digital first reported, citing...

    **SNIP** Agents with U.S. Homeland Security Investigations, a branch of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, searched Omar's home before dawn Oct. 12 under a sealed warrant listing conspiracy, false statements on immigration paperwork, and immigration fraud as potential crimes, a person familiar with the case told Reuters. Investigators are examining whether Omar or her late father lied about her age when she became a citizen in 2000, CNN reported. As of Thursday, Omar has denied wrongdoing and has not been charged. Dershowitz said the warrant itself tells a story. Of search warrants, he said, "usually they're issued pretty easily, but not...

    WASHINGTON — The search warrant on “Squad” Rep. Ilhan Omar hasn’t necessarily been “fully” completed, court documents in a legal fight between the feds and the media indicated. At dawn on Oct. 12, the feds executed a search warrant and raided Omar’s (D-Minn.) DC home as part of a probe into her immigration status in a stunning move less than a month out from the Nov. 3 election. To justify keeping the details of the records for the warrant under wraps from numerous media outlets, US Attorney for DC Jeanine Pirro cited concerns that it wasn’t fully completed. “[G]ood cause...

    Omar says threats against her and concerns about her children have made remaining at the residence "no longer" feasible. Rep. Ilhan Omar says she plans to move out of her Washington, D.C., home after federal agents searched the residence, citing death threats and concerns about her children's safety. In her first interview since the Oct. 12 search, the Minnesota Democrat recounted the early-morning operation during an appearance on MS NOW with host Chris Hayes. As NBC News reported, Omar said the search and safety concerns have prompted her to leave the home. "Because our address has been public and with...

During a conversation about capitalism, someone told Anne that “You just can’t get away from capitalism.” Anne replied, “No, unless we kill everybody.” Hirschi responded that they only needed to kill “some” people and initially settled on “500.” Anne then said, “You also have to kill their children and their [line of succession].” Hirschi agreed, stating, “We need to get the politicians.” When asked whether ICE agents could integrate back into society, Hirschi said, “If...

    What replaces a nation that apologizes for existing? France is burning again. This isn’t new, as France has been stacking it for decades. Civilizations rarely die when the barbarians arrive at the gate. They die when the gatekeepers forget what the gate is for. In his televised address, French President Macron asked in anguish, “How can French people do this to France?” The question assumes a shared heritage and commitment among “French” people. It implies a clear and precise answer to a prior question: Who is French, and why does it matter? The reality is that France long ago lost...
