Democrats chose a hill to die on—they will defend the last violent, human-trafficking Central American gangbanger escape from ICE no matter what the cost. According to documents leaked by conservative radio host Dan O’Donnell, a Department of Administration (DOA) memo dated April 18 lays out explicit steps for state workers to follow when ICE agents arrive at government buildings. Instead of cooperating with federal immigration enforcement, employees are being told to stonewall — refuse to answer questions, deny access to files, and even demand agents leave if no attorney is available. The outrageous memo directs state employees to treat federal...

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth has formally terminated the service of every member sitting on the Department of Defense’s advisory committees. Based on the information available on the website as of Thursday, the now-defunct panels included several well-known Democrats and Bush-era Republicans. Janine Davidson (Chair) – Former Under Secretary of the Navy under Obama. A staunch Democrat and longtime proponent of Obama-era military reforms, now steering Pentagon policy advice. Michèle Flournoy – Held major Pentagon roles under Clinton and Obama; often discussed as a potential Secretary of Defense under Hillary Clinton or Biden. Colin Kahl – National Security Advisor to...

The FBI has arrested former New Mexico Magistrate Judge Juan Cano and his wife Nancy Cano for allegedly harboring an illegal alien with suspected ties to Tren de Aragua, a notorious Venezuelan gang known for trafficking, extortion, and violence. The arrest comes just weeks after Cano resigned from his judicial post following a dramatic federal raid at his Doña Ana County residence, where agents apprehended Cristhian Ortega Lopez, an illegal immigrant now charged with unlawful firearm possession and gang affiliation. The Gateway Pundit was one of the first outlets to report that longtime Doña Ana County Magistrate Judge Joel Cano...

Ty Clevenger has fired off a blistering letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel, accusing the FBI of flagrantly concealing critical records about the late DNC staffer Seth Rich and the now-discredited Russia collusion narrative. In February 2024, Clevenger demanded that the FBI hand over the Seth Rich documents they continue to conceal from the public. The FBI’s refusal follows a pattern of obfuscation. For years, the agency denied even possessing Seth Rich’s laptop—until Clevenger’s legal efforts forced the FBI to admit they had it all along. Yet, the agency still refuses to disclose any metadata...

In a scathing rebuke, U.S. District Judge James Wesley Hendrix, a Trump appointee, issued a blistering court order chastising the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) for attempting to engage in an ex parte communication — a serious breach of judicial ethics — in a high-profile case involving illegal aliens detained at the Bluebonnet Detention Center.Ex parte communications are interactions where one party or their representative communicates directly with a judge or decision-maker about a pending case without notifying the other parties.

Retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, President Trump’s former National Security Advisor and a central figure in the Obama-era Crossfire Hurricane scandal, is once again turning up the heat on key players in the conservative movement, publicly demanding answers from Trump allies Pam Bondi and Kash Patel about long-promised justice.

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/04/trump-administration-faces-lawsuit-law-firm-that-secured/The law firm Susman Godfrey LLP—the same firm that secured a staggering $787.5 million defamation settlement from Fox News on behalf of Dominion Voting Systems—is now suing President Trump and nearly every major federal agency in a brazen effort to overturn a recent executive order targeting the firm for its politicized legal activism.Susman Godfrey, a Houston-based firm of leftist legal elites, filed a 66-page lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, hysterically claiming that President Trump’s Executive Order targeting their firm is an unconstitutional “retaliation” for their work defending the “integrity” of the 2020 election.The complaint...

U.S. District Judge John A. Woodcock, a Bush appointee, has sided with Maine’s far-left government, forcing the Trump administration’s Department of Agriculture to unfreeze federal funds despite the state’s open defiance of Title IX protections for women and girls. The case stems from a fiery conflict between the Trump administration and Maine’s Democrat leadership after Governor Janet Mills refused to comply with Executive Order 14201, titled “Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports,” issued by President Trump in February.

The US Air Force once made plans for a 'gay bomb' that would use chemical aphrodisiacs to make enemy soldiers 'irresistibly attractive to one another.' The bizarre plan, formulated by the military's Wright Laboratory in 1994, was part of a six-year non-lethal weapons development project costing $7.5 million that was ultimately scrapped. A three-page document obtained by the Sunshine Project, an anti-biological weapons organization, details the laboratory's proposal for a bomb 'that contained a chemical that would cause enemy soldiers to become gay.' The scientists theorized that this would make their units 'break down' because 'all their soldiers became irresistibly...

Space Force Col. Susan Meyers, commander of Pituffik Space Base in Greenland, sent out a base-wide email after a visit by Vice President J.D. Vance last month that undermined President Donald Trump’s position on the territory of Greenland as a vital national security interest being mismanaged by Denmark that would do better under the United States, according to a scoop by Military.com reporter Thomas Novelly published Thursday afternoon. “I do not presume to understand current politics, but what I do know is the concerns of the U.S. administration discussed by Vice President Vance on Friday are not reflective of Pituffik...

On Tuesday, new court documents were released that reveal would-be Trump assassin Ryan Routh was in talks to purchase a Stinger Missile to take out Trump here in the US. A Stinger missile reportedly costs from $119,000 to $120,000. A Stinger missile costs anywhere from $50,000 to $80,000 on the black market. So, where did Ryan Routh get all of his funding? The Gateway Pundit reported that the court documents reveal that Routh was communicating with someone he “believed to be a Ukrainian with access to military weapons.” The Gateway Pundit questioned at the time, “It sounds like Routh was...

As the peace negotiations face the inevitable hurdles from both the Russian and the Ukrainian sides, it’s now the Europeans that are doing their level best to derail the process. And it’s UK’s Prime Minister Keir Starmer and France’s President Emmanuel Macron who are the self-appointed ‘saboteurs-in-chief’ tasked with posturing and lecturing to the all-too-friendly MSM. Now, Starmer and Macron started to patronize US President Donald J. Trump and his team, ‘warning’ them against ‘trusting Vladimir Putin’. Besides that, they both made it clear they will not relax any sanctions on Russia as part of a ceasefire deal – effectively...

Mike Benz, the founder of the Foundation for Freedom Online, recently joined Joe Rogan on his very popular podcast The Joe Rogan Experience with over 19 million subscribers. The podcast was filmed several weeks ago but a clip from this discussion is making the rounds this week on social media. During their conversation, Mike Benz shared how Barack Obama was using money to USAID to pretend to send “aid” overseas. In actuality, Obama was laundering the taxpayer dollars and using it to train “rent-a-mobs” instead!

In a bombshell revelation that could shake the foundations of American healthcare, Elon Musk, leading the charge under President Trump’s newly minted Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), has uncovered what he describes as a staggering “$100B of taxpayer money” wasted by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). On Wednesday, Musk’s team, along with two senior veterans from the agency, has been meticulously reviewing the CMS’s payment and contracting systems, which are crucial for managing health insurance for approximately one in every four Americans, according to far-left USA Today. “CMS has two senior Agency veterans – one focused on...

On Thursday, Former Lt. US Capitol Police Officer Tarik Johnson posted an Emergency Alert on X. According to his sources on Capitol Hill, the Capitol Hill Police Chief Thomas Manger is falling asleep in meetings with officers discussing security for the 2025 inauguration ceremony. This is a serious accusation and needs to be investigated.

Listening to the leftist propaganda of the Biden era, one might think that President Trump has conveyed no substantive policy prescriptions. How about peace? Bringing home troops from foreign combat zones seems like a good policy. It is important to note that Vice President Harris, in her debate with President Trump, made the following claim: “And as of today, there is not one member of the United States Military who is in active duty in a combat zone in any war zone around the world for the first time this century.” Subsequently, many posts on X debunked this statement in...

Kamala Harris supporters across the country have been left rattled after receiving letters and postcards suggesting they will be “volunteering” to house migrant families. While Democrats have championed open borders and humanitarian migrant policies, it seems when the issue is brought to their own doorsteps—literally—enthusiasm fades. “Somebody drove around our neighborhood, jotted down all of the street addresses that had Harris signs in their yards and sent them this letter,” said Carole Laval, a Democrat voter. “To receive something like this, it’s un-American,” Laval said. “We’re exercising our right to free speech. This is not right.” “I was angry. And...
