During a raid in Los Angeles, California, known as one of the nation’s most enthusiastic sanctuary jurisdictions, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents arrested what they are calling the “worst of the worst” criminal illegal aliens. While California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass (D) continue to side with rioters taking to the city streets to oppose the enforcement of federal immigration laws, ICE agents have continued arresting convicted criminal illegal aliens. “These heinous criminals, including child abusers and pedophiles, are some of the illegal aliens arrested yesterday in Los Angeles,” Department of Homeland Security (DHS)...

A prominent Staten Island pediatrician accused of mowing down a dad and his 6-year-old daughter before leaving the scene of a January crash paid a $300 fine to make it all go away. Dr. Sam Leuzzi, 66, of Middletown, N.J., cut a plea deal with the Staten Island District Attorney’s office this month where he receives no prison time — just a fine and community service, court records show. But the pain lingers for Guy Seth and daughter Zoey, who both suffered traumatic brain injuries, and Malgorzata (Gosia) Seth, the wife and mom who became their caretaker. Dr. Sam Leuzzi...

GREENSBORO, N.C. — The man accused of pointing a rifle into the golf course where former President Donald Trump was playing last weekend, was known in his hometown as something of a bad actor. “Weird” is how one of Ryan Routh’s former neighbors in Greensboro described him. She told reporters he once had a horse in his house and that he also kept guns. A man, who like the first neighbor asked not to be identified for fear of being associated with Routh, says he didn’t know the 58 year old well but got a similar vibe. “I mean, [he]...

Martin County Sheriff's Office via AP ========================================================= Fox News has reported that the alleged suspect in the second Trump assassination attempt is Ryan Wesley Routh, as we reported earlier. He allegedly aimed a rifle through the fence on the golf course where Trump was. He was about 300-500 yards away. Law enforcement claimed he had an AK-47 with a scope and a Go-Pro camera at the fence. He also had a bag with ceramic plates. The Secret Service fired at him and he fled in a black SUV. A citizen saw him and took a picture of his license which...

After an 80-year-old man was struck by an ATV while putting up a Trump sign in his yard in Michigan on Sunday, a 22-year-old called authorities saying he was involved, then killed himself, officials said.

Traumatic footage show a transgender murder suspect running over a victim twice with a Dodge Challenger in suburban Houston - before kissing and stabbing his limp body. Law enforcement sources close to the case said the footage was some of the most horrifying they've seen in their careers, and culminated with the victim's death. The incident on Woodridge Square Drive on May 3 happened in broad daylight - with 20-year-old Karon Fisher seen careening toward Steven Anderson, 64, as he walked to retrieve some mail. Hit first and run over again as Fisher backed up, Anderson is seen looking back...

At least six Salt Lake County women share a disturbing reality: prosecutors believe they were intentionally hit by a man in a white car while they were walking outside. KSL is aware of at least two other eerily similar hit-and-run incidents involving women and a suspect in a white car, but those remain under investigation. On March 25, Salt Lake County prosecutors filed several felony charges – including six counts of attempted murder – against 26-year-old Anh Duy Pham. The charges represent four hit-and-run incidents investigators have linked to Pham and involve a total of six victims.

More than one in every ten fatal crashes in California is a hit-and-run, according to a new study involving federal traffic data. The research, commissioned by Suzuki Law Offices, looked at National Highway Traffic Safety Administration figures between 2017 and 2021.

That’s the highest total number of fatal hit-and-runs in the nation and significantly above the national rate of 6.33%, the data showed.

A woman accused of killing an NYPD cop in a drunken hit-run didn’t bat an eye as she was found guilty on all charges Tuesday — while the officer’s widow burst into tears. Jessica Beauvais, 32, of Long Island was convicted of aggravated manslaughter in the second degree along with vehicular manslaughter in the second degree and leaving the scene of an incident without reporting it in the 2021 horror that killed NYPD Officer Anastasios Tsakos on the Long Island Expressway.

Yet, there was one incident I came across during research for the book where Joe had the opportunity to show empathy for a family that suffered the same fate as he did all those decades ago, but instead he decided to cover for one his corrupt brothers. I document several instances in the book of where Frank Biden used his connection to his famous and powerful money to make ill-gotten cash, but the most shocking Frank Biden story involved a hit-and-run car crash. In July of 1999, Frank Biden let a young friend named Jason Turton drive his Jaguar to...

Jan. 11 was a typical day for Isaac VanWasshenova, a trash collector for Waste Management. The 35-year-old from Barnesville, Ohio, got in a truck at the depot and headed to the streets of Mt. Lebanon. While picking up trash, he looked forward to seeing people he knew and talking with the children who sometimes ran outside to see him. “I always want to do my job 100%, but I also want to be kind to people,” he said recently. “You never know what people are going through. If they need something, I tell them, ‘Just ask.’” About an hour into...

The man busted for the hit-and-run crash that killed five young women getting ready for a wedding in Minnesota is the son of a fiery Black Lives Matter protest leader-turned-politician — who was ultimately booted by the Democrats over his shocking history of domestic violence arrests. Derrick Thompson, 27 — the son of ex-state rep. John Thompson — was busted on suspicion of murder Monday over the horrifying caught-on-camera crash that killed Sabiriin Ali, 17, Sahra Gesaade, 20, Salma Abdikadir, 20, Sagal Hersi, 19, and Siham Adam, 19. He already has a long history of convictions — including a felony...

For years I’ve been sounding the alarm about an impending social, cultural, and spiritual crisis, and for years critics have compared me to Chicken Little, discounting my warnings as the ravings of a hysterical, religious fundamentalist. Well, it’s a little late for that now.

Gun-control is extremist rhetoric and murderously dangerous. Look at the facts and it seems gun-control Democrats really want more of us to die. This is what happens when we're disarmed.
