The Minnesota Board of Pardons on June 10 pardoned a man convicted of raping a 10-year-old girl, according to a New York Times report. The three-person state board, which includes Gov. Tim Walz, pardoned Tou Lue Vang, from Laos, a week before he was set to be deported. Vang was convicted in 2005. Vang had pleaded guilty to first-degree sexual conduct in a plea deal that prevented him from serving prison time, the NYTimes reported. The pardon means that Vang can now fight the deportation. NEW: DHS is accusing MN Gov. Tim Walz of trying to shield a Laotian illegal...

President Donald Trump responded to Tuesday’s Supreme Court’s ruling striking down his birthright citizenship executive order by appearing to back immigration legislation that would further clarify how immigrants can become citizens.In a 6-3 ruling, justices held that an executive order Trump issued on the first day of his second term violated the Constitution. The order greatly restricted the circumstances in which a baby born in the United States would automatically be granted American citizenship.The Fourteenth Amendment states, in part, “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States...

Labour has secretly dropped a ban on small-boat migrants and other illegal immigrants winning British citizenship. The extraordinary U-turn came in the wake of a legal challenge which claimed the policy was a breach of human rights laws and international refugee treaties. It means illegal migrants who win asylum here will now be able to secure British passports, three years after they were barred from doing so by the Conservatives. Under documents drawn up by Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood they now simply have to claim it was 'outside their control' that they arrived in the UK without permission. Remarkably, the...

Film critics hate it, but it is resonating with the general public. Director Uwe Boll just released a movie that is ticking off all the right people. Called Citizen Vigilante, it is an unapologetic rejection of globalism, mass migration, Islamic conquest, and “woke” leftism. The movie bashes politicians, judges, NGOs, and law enforcement agencies that have bent over backwards to excuse inexcusable crimes committed by non-Western immigrants. It unequivocally demands a return to law and order. It urges viewers to seek justice. It threatens the continuing survival of any Western government that continues to allow outsiders to prey on its...

Gunther Eagleman™ @GuntherEagleman 🚨 65% OF TPS HOLDERS ARE ON TAXPAYER WELFARE. Rep. Chip Roy just dropped the hammer: “65% of the people who come here who are on TPS status are on welfare. The President is correct to end TPS.” Temporary Protected Status? Try PERMANENT welfare magnet. Haiti TPS since the 2010 earthquake, 16 YEARS later. 91% of them entered ILLEGALLY first, then got the work permits and protection. While American families grind, pay taxes, and watch their hard-earned money subsidize households that were never supposed to stay forever. This is the exact scam the Trump administration is finally...

Wall Street Apes@WallStreetApesLeaked recording of Xavier Becerra at HHS under Biden saying he was putting illegal migrant children “in an assembly line”He clearly says the American people will be upset knowing how much Democrats were spending on children who shouldn’t even be here in America, and he’s instructing his staff to place them as quickly as they can without doing the proper checksHow is this guy not rotting in prison“This is not the way you do an assembly line”“We need to get discharges up — Every time we have to go to the Hill and explain why we're spending so...

A street corner in the South African coastal city of Durban has become a bustling scene of desperation. Thousands of migrants crowd around colorful plastic sacks, boxes and trash bags carrying what belongings they could salvage before fleeing the country. Women tuck their babies under blankets. Vendors hawk solar-powered cellphone chargers and potato chips. Portable toilets, large green water tanks and makeshift showers fashioned from gray tarps are the only sanitation available. The people in this encampment, like the handful that have popped up around the country, have been stuck out here for days, sometimes weeks, after anti-immigration activists called...

RealRobert@Real_RobNHere it is;THE CHILDREN!“The Biden-Harris child sex-trafficking administration did everything it could to make sure you knew nothing about the children.”Tens of thousands of little girls trafficked across the U.S. border were found loaded up with birth control pills—given to them because they were being raped repeatedly throughout the journey. And after arriving on American soil, between 300,000 and 500,000 children went missing.Fox News was the only one reporting on it: The rest of the mainstream media were in on it.June 23, 2026 ransomnote: In the video, the reporter says 350,000 children remain missing.

For years, Democrats told you that the border crisis wasn’t real, or that it was real, but it was a good thing. I guess the theory was that having a huge influx of immigrants meant cheap labor, which was great for everyone. It didn’t really work out that way. Not only did it cause all sorts of crime problems, but it also caused a major housing problem. Immigrants were coming into this country really, really, really fast under Joe Biden, and so available housing declined and rents went up.Of course, if you pointed this out, you were accused of peddling...

The sheer amount of roughly one million illegal migrants in Spain seeking amnesty could lead to a “collapse” of the nation’s basic services such as housing, education, or security, experts warned. Spain is presently in the final weeks of a widely-criticized mass amnesty process launched by the government of socialist Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez that aims to grant half a million illegal migrants with “legal” residence status, work permits, and other benefits. Despite the initial “half a million” estimates stated by Spanish officials in January, officials recently acknowledged that over 900,000 amnesty requests had been submitted by migrants, confirming estimates...

The sicko who raped a dead man for more than 30 minutes aboard a Manhattan subway last year will spend five years behind bars — after he sat speechless during his sentence Wednesday. Felix Rojas, 44, was slapped with prison time for the heinous assault and robbery of Jorge Gonzalez, 37, on an R train near the Whitehall Street station in April 2025. Gonzalez boarded the R train, lost consciousness and died on a bench inside the subway car nearly three hours before Rojas showed up and violated him. Rojas, of Brooklyn, first noticed Gonzalez was motionless, before deciding to...

A nationwide welfare fraud crackdown reached Massachusetts this week, as federal authorities announced the arrests of 15 people — 11 of them illegal immigrants — accused of stealing more than $1.4 million in American taxpayer-funded benefits. The defendants are accused of fraudulently obtaining benefits through programs including Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) food assistance, MassHealth, Social Security disability payments, housing assistance and unemployment benefits, according to the Department of Justice. "Alarmingly, 11 of the 15 charged defendants are suspected illegal aliens, some of whom assumed stolen identities to steal these taxpayer-funded benefits and avoid detection," Acting Assistant Attorney General Colin...

One of the individuals charged with plotting a terrorist attack against the UFC Freedom 250 event at the White House earlier this week, and the alleged ringleader of the operation, is an illegal alien, according to the Department of Homeland Security. Abraham Alvarez, a Mexican national, entered the United States as a child and later received deportation relief through former President Obama's Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program after overstaying his visa. Alvarez was arrested on Sunday by the FBI in Omaha, Nebraska. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has already lodged a detainer against him.

La Reconquista is no longer just rhetoric, but a contested network of consulates, NGOs, and advocacy groups reshaping the U.S. Southwest immigration debate. The support network includes NGOs and Mexican consulates. This is Part II of a two-part series analyzing the La Reconquista movement. It calls for the cultural, demographic, or political “reclamation” of the U.S. Southwest, which Mexico lost after the Mexican-American War. Part I discussed the movement’s origins and history, ideological core, and its organization in the U.S. This part covers the movement and Mexican consulates in the U.S., Reconquista goals and tactics employed, the movement’s ties to...

Illegal Immigrants and Foreign Fraudsters steal BILLIONS every year from the American Taxpayer. As part of my Administration’s Historic effort to end FRAUD and reverse MASS ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION, I recently signed a powerful new Executive Order, which will be led by the Treasury Department, to stop Banks, Credit Cards, and Financial Institutions from being used to facilitate Human Smuggling, Drug Trafficking, Illegal Immigration, and the Criminal Cartels who orchestrate these activities. Access to our Nation’s Financial Systems must be limited to those who have a Legal Right to be here, and who are engaged in Lawful and Legitimate Commerce. Bank...

As you are probably aware, in most circumstances and for most categories of handouts, illegal immigrants in the United States do not qualify for welfare benefits. As I’m using it here, the term “welfare” does not include Social Security or Medicare, which are not restricted by income status; but the term “welfare” does include all of the large number of what are called “means-tested” programs, which in the aggregate consume nearly $1 trillion annually of federal spending (and well over $1 trillion if state contributions are included). The biggest of the “means tested” programs are Medicaid, SNAP (“food stamps”), and...

For many millennials, the economy can feel like a game of musical chairs where previous generations already grabbed the seats, refinanced them at 3% interest and now insist there are still plenty left if younger people would just "budget better." Somewhere along the way, the American dream started feeling less like a finish line and more like one of those carnival games rigged just enough to keep people throwing money at it. That frustration spilled into Reddit's r/economy subreddit when one millennial who grew up in the 1990s posted a blunt message about the growing disconnect between younger Americans and...

A man charged in an investigation into an alleged biolab operation in Las Vegas has also been accused of illegally keeping firearms in his home, according to multiple reports citing a federal complaint. Ori Solomon, 55, the property manager of the location where the alleged laboratory was discovered, faces state charges for allegedly disposing and discharging hazardous waste, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD) said in a press conference on Monday. According to a criminal complaint reviewed by Newsweek, he is also accused of illegally keeping firearms, including a Glock handgun, after a federal search warrant was issued for...

The Trump administration on Friday announced a major expansion of its denaturalization campaign targeting foreign-born American citizens accused of fraudulently obtaining U.S. citizenship. The Justice Department unveiled denaturalization cases in federal courts across the country against roughly a dozen U.S. citizens born overseas. Officials said they had committed serious crimes or immigration fraud, or had ties to terrorism. The announcement represents a dramatic increase in the federal government's use of denaturalization, a lengthy and complicated legal procedure that has rarely been invoked by prior administrations. Between 1990 and 2017, for example, the U.S. government filed just over 300 denaturalization cases...

Trump recasts America not as an abstract creed but as a civilization rooted in a distinct people—arguing that change the people, and you change the nation itself. Here are two quotations, one from Donald Trump this week and one from Thomas Jefferson. I won’t tell you which is which. Here’s the first: “For nearly two centuries before the revolution, this land [America] was settled and forged by men and women who bore in their souls the blood and noble spirit of the British. Here on a wild and untamed continent, they set loose the ancient English love of liberty and...
