Hampe's bail was set to $250,000. The Post Millennial's editor-at-large Andy Ngo suspected the PDX Protest Bail Fund on GoFundMe,...

The Left’s obsession with illegal immigration is getting worse, and weirder, as it strains to resist any and all attempts to enforce immigration law. The immigration raids in and around Los Angeles have resulted in more violent actions from “protesters” and more ridiculous defenses from Democratic politicians. On the latter front, Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) called President Donald Trump “scum” for a raid that resulted in “Kids running from tear gas, crying on the phone because their mother was just taken from the fields.” Weirdly, Newsom did not think to find out why nearly a dozen children were out in...

BREAKING: Tom Homan GOES OFF after a Texas officer was SH0T at by a left-wing lunatic outside an ICE facility. He is furious and says MEMBERS OF CONGRESS are fanning the flames. "We have senators, we have Congress people that compare ICE to the Nazis, to racists, and it just continues!" "The attacks on ICE are up nearly 700% now. We were talking 500% a couple weeks ago, so it continues." "The rhetoric against the men and women of ICE is skyrocketing, ESPECIALLY by members of Congress." It must stop.

The FBI has identified the protestor filmed hurling cinder blocks at law enforcement vehicles during the anti-ICE riots, and Pam Bondi warns he and others will be hunted down. The suspect, who has so far only been named as 'Reyes', has been added to the bureau's most wanted list after a $50,000 reward was announced for information leading to the suspect's arrest and conviction.

The brute was photographed wearing a green and orange Los Angeles Lakers cap...

California Governor Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass could both face federal charges over their response to ICE raids in the city, President Trump’s border czar Tom Homan has warned. As violence tore apart sections of downtown LA, Compton and the suburb of Paramount, the administration has accused the Golden State Dems of fueling tensions, which exploded in riots on Saturday. “Someone is going to lose their life,” Homan warned, speaking to NBC News. He said that he has not ruled out asking the Department of Justice to prosecute the elected officials for allegedly having a role in...

National Guard troops arrived in L.A. on Sunday morning at the request of the Trump administration after confrontations between protesters and immigration agents carrying out raids of local businesses.National Guard deployed to Los Angeles at immigration raid protests The immigration raid protests began this weekend as demonstrators chanted “ICE go home” and “No justice, no peace.” Some protesters yelled at deputies, and a series of flash-bang grenades was deployed.

Michael Mann, a prominent climate scientist and professor at the University of Pennsylvania, sparked controversy on May 23, 2025, by posting on the Bluesky social media platform: “If Trump doesn’t comply, we’re in second amendment territory.” The statement was made in response to a report on a federal judge’s ruling that blocked President Trump’s executive order to dismantle the Department of Education, appearing to suggest people take up arms to overthrow or assassinate the America First leader. The May 22 injunction froze the administration’s plan to eliminate the department, which included terminating around 1,300 employees. Mann’s post—interpreted by many as...

Washington, D.C. – In a bombshell report released Tuesday, the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence accused the FBI of deliberately downplaying the politically motivated 2017 shooting that nearly killed House Majority Leader Steve Scalise and injured several others. The shooter, James Hodgkinson, was a far-left extremist who opened fire on Republican congressmen practicing for the annual charity baseball game—but the FBI called it “suicide by cop.” That decision, the report says, wasn’t just wrong—it was dishonest. The 27-page unclassified report, compiled from more than 3,000 pages of FBI records recently turned over by new Director Kash Patel, reveals that...

Editor’s note: The subject of this story is being identified because he’s pushed radical rhetoric and has advocated for politically-motivated violence from behind a mask. The Daily Caller News Foundation does not and will not publish truly private information such as home addresses. The Daily Caller News Foundation has determined that an influential Antifa leader uses aliases to spread radical and often violent rhetoric while concealing his actual identity.

U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi said Sunday that Rep. Jasmine Crockett should “tread carefully” when voicing her opposition to Elon Musk and Tesla. Ms. Bondi said the Texas Democrat has called for “attacks on Elon Musk” to protest his role in cutting government spending as part of the Department of Government Efficiency. “She is an elected public official, so she needs to tread very carefully because nothing will happen to Elon Musk and we are going to fight to protect all of the Tesla owners throughout this country,” Ms. Bondi said on Fox News Channel.

Whenever the far left in the U.S. loses an argument — called an election — it suddenly decides it’s time to take to the streets and get violent. Now is just such a time, as America experiences a new spasm of home-grown anti-Trump, anti-Musk terrorism. It shouldn’t be tolerated. Whether it’s taking pot shots at the president, violently demonstrating in support of murderous terrorists, “swatting” people they don’t like, or destroying cars made by a person they now despise, our country once again finds extremists threatening us and our liberty. And, no surprise, it’s nearly all from the far left...

Columbia University’s radical protest leaders, including Khalil, aren’t just anti-Israel — they want America to fall and are taking steps to make it happen. Senate Judiciary Committee Democrats are demanding the release of Columbia University student and pro-Hamas protester Mahmoud Khalil. While House Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) is accusing the Trump administration of “authoritarianism,” the Democrats are about to be embarrassed. Khalil is a leader of Columbia University Apartheid Divest, one of more than 150 pro-terrorism groups I identified in my comprehensive study for the Capital Research Center, “Marching Toward Violence: The Domestic Anti-Israeli Protest Movement.”...

On Thursday’s “Alex Marlow Show,” Republican Liberty Caucus National Secretary Jessico Bowman talked about anti-Tesla violence and terrorism. Bowman said, “It’s definitely organized at a broader level. There is a website up that people can go visit that’s out there today, and I’ve actually posted this on my X account, I’ve shared some of these events, but they’re coordinating it with people locally across…not just the Indivisible groups, really, but, like, multiple groups and individuals that are, like, posting these events where people show up and they already have, like, pre-printed graphics…signs and stickers and things like you mentioned that...

Five conservative influencers have been swatted in recent days, as Democrats ramp up their invectives against President Donald Trump and DOGE chief Elon Musk amid their work to downsize the government and eliminate waste, fraud and abuse. Swatting is a form of domestic terrorism where someone makes a false report to emergency services, often targeting a political opponent, leading to a police Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) team or other law enforcement response at the victim’s location. The malicious tactic can and has led to fatalities. The victims this week include Info Wars reporter Chase Geiser, conservative radio talk show...

Minnesota attorney general Keith Ellison, the former congressman from Minnesota who gave us examples of how to treat women, has tweeted that the "Bernie Bros," that rabid group of Bernie Sanders–supporters that seem like a branch of Antifa, has tweeted that, no, they are merely passionate and as gentle as he: "I have never seen @BernieSanders supporters being unusually mean or rude," Ellison tweeted. "Can someone send me an example of a 'Bernie Bro' being bad. Also, are we holding all candidates responsible for the behavior of some of their supporters? Waiting to hear." Like most Democrats, progressives, and liberals,...

North Salt Lake, Utah – An unhinged Reddit user who regularly calls for the gunshot murder of Elon Musk, President Donald Trump, and other so-called “nazis” has been identified as an IT administrator for a local middle school. Thanks to a credible tip, counter-extremist researchers with the Justice Report can name 39-year-old Mason David Luxenberg, aka “MasonL87,” as the man behind a series of death threats aimed at the United States Federal government. Luxenberg—an IT professional currently working in close proximity to children at Sunset Ridge Middle School in West Jordan, Utah— would be one of several users pushing the...
