    “It is my opinion that the Bondi order is unlawful, and that you are not legally obligated to follow it,” DC Attorney General Brian Schwalb wrote The District of Columbia on Friday morning sued the Trump administration over Attorney General Pam Bondi's appointment of an emergency commissioner for the city's police department.The suit appeared inevitable since Bondi made the announcement Thursday afternoon, as part of President Trump's initiative to send federal agents to the nation's capitol to curb violent crime, and top D.C. officials challenged Bondi's move last night.DC Attorney General Brian Schwalb said in the lawsuit that Trump...

    Axios ^ | August 15, 2025 | Andrew Solender
    Why it matters: The measure is an extreme long-shot, but it is a show of strong Democratic opposition to a move that many in the party say amounts to a chilling and unprecedented power-grab.Axios was first to report on Wednesday that Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), the ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, planned to introduce a measure terminating the crime emergency.Driving the news: Raskin is introducing the resolution along with Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-D.C.), House Oversight Committee ranking member Robert Garcia (D-Calif.), and Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.).The legislation would end the "crime emergency" that Trump declared under...

    A North Carolina Republican has a theory about why Democrats oppose a bill requiring state and local government agencies to detain people wanted by federal immigration officials. Republicans in the GOP-controlled General Assembly hope to enact the bill, known as the "North Carolina Border Protection Act", after Democratic Gov. Josh Stein vetoed it in June. They overrode Stein’s veto in the state Senate; the House of Representatives has yet to vote on an override. State Rep. John Blust, a Guilford County Republican, said during the bill’s June 4 House debate that Democrats benefit from having a large population of people...

    MIAMI (AP) — A federal judge on Thursday ordered a temporary halt to construction at an immigration detention center — built in the middle of the Florida Everglades and dubbed “Alligator Alcatraz” — as attorneys argue whether it violates environmental laws. The facility can continue to operate and hold detainees for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, but workers will be barred from adding any new filling, paving or infrastructure for the next 14 days. U.S. District Judge Kathleen Williams issued the ruling during a hearing and said she will issue a written order later Thursday. Environmental groups and the Miccosukee...

    Known for the eponymous reptiles that inhabit the nearby swamps, the migrant detention center dubbed "Alligator Alcatraz" faces the possibility of being shut down over concerns about some of the area's lesser-known inhabitants -- the Everglades' bats, panthers, and storks.A federal judge on Wednesday is set to hold an evidentiary hearing over whether to block operations at the controversial facility because construction of the site allegedly bypassed federally required environmental impact studies.The hearing -- at which federal, state, and tribal officials are expected to testify -- comes amid heightened scrutiny of the facility, which was once touted as a "one-stop...

    WASHINGTON – Today, the Justice Department published a list of states, cities, and counties identified as having policies, laws, or regulations that impede enforcement of federal immigration laws.“Sanctuary policies impede law enforcement and put American citizens at risk by design,” said Attorney General Pamela Bondi. “The Department of Justice will continue bringing litigation against sanctuary jurisdictions and work closely with the Department of Homeland Security to eradicate these harmful policies around the country.”On April 28, 2025, President Trump signed Executive Order 14287: Protecting American Communities from Criminal Aliens.

    *** A coalition of 20 attorneys general, led by New York AG Letitia James and California Attorney General Rob Bonta announced the lawsuit Monday, arguing that the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s demand that states turn over personal information about SNAP recipients dating back five years, violates privacy laws. SNAP is a federally-funded, state-administered program that provides billions of dollars in food benefits to tens of millions of low-income individuals and families in the United States. The new USDA demands, released last week, require states to provide a list of individuals who have applied or are currently receiving SNAP benefits, in...

    The US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) crackdown has been very noticeable under Donald Trump’s second term. Naturally with an immigrant population of 15.8% of the total population there has been massive pushback in the US against the deportations. One such person in this crusade has been Angelica Vargas. Not only does she track ICE movementsin her area, but has also set up a GoFundMe page seeking help…

Jeb Boasberg is not giving up. Undeterred by recent smackdowns by the Supreme Court and the D.C. appellate court, Boasberg, the Obama-appointed chief judge of the D.C. district court, is preparing to mete out some sort of punishment against the Trump administration for allegedly defying one of his court orders back in March. During a hearing last week in the ACLU’s lawsuit related to the Alien Enemies Act, President Trump’s...

    The Steele Dossier wasn’t just dirty politics — it was state-sponsored election interference. For eight years, Americans were told that Donald Trump was a Kremlin asset. That Russia rigged the 2016 election in his favor. That collusion wasn’t just a conspiracy — it was fact. It was all a lie. Thanks to newly declassified documents released by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, we now know who really colluded with Russian disinformation: Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. They funded it. They laundered it through the FBI and CIA. They embedded it into official intelligence reports. And they used it to...

    Michigan has joined four other states who have introduced legislation to ban Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents from wearing masks, with the Wolverine state calling for jail time for violators. Democrats in California, New York, Massachusetts and Pennsylvania also have introduced similar bills as part of an attempt by those lawmakers to “increase transparency and limit the agency’s expanded powers” under President Donald Trump, Newsweek reported this week. As Breitbart News has reported, federal authorities say ICE officers have been wearing plain clothes and using masks during raids to hinder their identification they or their families won’t be targeted...

    Anaheim will direct $250,000 to an assistance fund created to help families affected by the recent surge in federal immigration enforcement that will give grants for rent, utilities and other household expenses. Last month, the city partnered with the nonprofit Anaheim Community Foundation to launch Anaheim Contigo, which accepts donations from the community to fund emergency assistance grants for families affected by the sweeps. The $250,000 in new money for Anaheim Contigo, approved by a split 5-2 City Council on Tuesday, July 15, would significantly bolster the fund, which had received $35,000 in donations to date. ...

Newsom reposted a video of the raid, calling President Donald Trump the “real scum” for enforcing the law. U.S. Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Rodney Scott alleged that the farm had been found employing not only illegal aliens, but also “juveniles.”

    A federal judge has written a tentative decision that sides with the anti-American ACLU’s plaintiffs and will block Trump’s Department of Homeland Security agents from raiding Home Depots, car washes and other places in the Los Angeles area (7 counties in the Central District of California) unless they have reasonable suspicion that there is a violation of immigration laws. According to Fox News, US District Judge Maame Ewusi-Mensah Frimpong, a Biden appointee, has written a tentative decision and it is still subject to change. The judge wrote her tentative ruling as leftists attack ICE agents during an immigration raid at...

    Current and former USAID and State Department officials are using their expertise in undermining authoritarian regimes abroad against President Donald Trump and his agenda at home, according to a new report Monday. The Trump administration is still in the process of terminating thousands of United States Agency for International Development (USAID) workers by September as the agency restructures to fall in line with the president's "America First" policy. NOTUS reporter Jose Pagliery reported, however, that "Some of the democracy-building experts President Donald Trump fired this year from the U.S. Agency for International Development and the State Department are now reapplying...

Former intelligence staffers with USAID and the State Department believe they can astroturf an uprising to overthrow Trump, hindering his ability to splinter their network even further. Many were laid off during the early months of his administration when the U.S. Department of Government Efficiency was largely unfettered in firing vast swaths of the federal bureaucracy. The “future of democracy” is on the line,...
