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...

The recording, obtained by The Cougar Chronicle, features Venna Anne and Ashton Hirschi, both identified as POPAI leaders, speaking during a meeting earlier this month. 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...

On Veterans Day 2025, I went on a road trip through central Indiana to visit the graves of several veterans of the American Revolutionary War. The sites I found -- and the stories behind them -- completely amazed me. There's so much hidden history tucked away in small roadside cemeteries across the country. Come along for this unforgettable Revolutionary War road trip! Note: for those concerned about the flag that was knocked over- I straightened up the gravesites prior to leaving, as I always do. I found George Washington's Drummer & other Revolutionary War Graves | Journey With Murphy |...

America's Treasure Chest just cracked open a little wider. On Wednesday, The United States' Geological Survey (USGS) announced a new assessment of resources on Alaska's vast North Slope, indicating another 3 trillion cubic feet (TCFG) of technically recoverable natural gas. That is, by current usage, about three years worth of American supply. It's also another reason to get Alaska's natural gas pipeline completed. The USGS first announced the find on X. World-class science. Extraordinary energy potential. @USGS estimates 96 trillion cubic feet of undiscovered natural gas on Alaska’s North Slope. Interior science is helping reveal the resources that could power...

Join me on a journey through historic Philadelphia as I visit the final resting places of seven signers of the Declaration of Independence -- the men who put their names on one of the most important documents in American history. Along the way, I'll explore the lives, sacrifices, and stories behind these remarkable Founding Fathers and the places where they were laid to rest. I'll also visit the grave of Betsy Ross, whose story has become deeply intertwined with the American Revolution, as well as the graves of two other signers of the U.S. Constitution. From churchyards tucked away in...

Barack Obama is like a firefighter parachuted in by the Democratic Party at times of crisis to put out fires. So when he weighed in on Sunday on the federal investigation of Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar over potential allegations of immigration fraud and financial offenses, you just knew that the party is seriously worried about the national implications if she were to be indicted and potentially denaturalized and deported. Railing against the “appalling” investigation, Obama claimed Omar was “a law-abiding elected official” targeted because she “has dared to criticize the president,” and we should all be “outraged” about the weaponization...

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) on Wednesday called allegations that she married her brother “insane” – but didn’t entirely close the door to the possibility of being related to her ex-husband. “Not to my knowledge,” Omar responded, when asked by MS NOW’s Chris Hayes if there was any “weird kernel of truth” to the claim that she wed her brother. The decade-old allegations that Omar and her ex, Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, got hitched in a failed effort to get him a green card originated on a “Somali blog,” and spread when “right-wing conspiracy theorists” latched onto it, Omar explained in...

Two Marines, one still serving, are taking the Pentagon to federal court after a massive breach exposed the private records of more than three million service members, veterans, and their families. Social Security numbers. Military job details. Birth dates. All of it sitting unencrypted on a vulnerable server for months. The Pentagon fixed the vulnerability nine months after officials found it, and after unauthorized users first got in. The men and women who served this country had every reason to trust their government with that data. That trust deserved better than sensitive files left exposed for most of a year....

WASHINGTON — “Squad” Rep. Ilhan Omar demonstrated “countless signals of deception” in her video message to supporters asking for donations, a body language expert assessed. Omar’s (D-Minn.) video message posted late Tuesday marked the first time she addressed the public on camera since the raid of her DC home last week and the revelation of a probe into her citizenship status by the feds. “It’s a nervous smile, and her eyes are not smiling, so it’s not genuine,” Florida-based body language expert Lillian Glass told The Post about Omar’s appearance in the video. “The lips curve downward; the raising [of...

A New York City native became an ISIS bride at just 18 — and is now the first woman to face trial in the US as an alleged member of the ruthless terror group. Halima Salman, now 27, has been painted by Brooklyn federal prosecutors as an ISIS-trained machine gun-toting wannabe killer, showing footage of the young woman wielding an AK-47 assault rifle in her terrorist husband’s Syria home. “The evidence shows that the defendant received training from a violent, brutal, terrorist organization, an organization responsible for violent attacks all over the world,” Assistant US Attorney Amanda Shami told the...

Trump on Tuesday night touted the amount of settlement money his administration has already provided and appeared to urge attendees to get out and vote to keep Congress in GOP control so that additional settlement money can be provided. =================================================================== The first Camp Lejeune water-contamination case will go to trial Oct. 26, with the Justice Department using a questionable expert to argue that the water didn’t cause illnesses at the military base.
