Angel Moms Patty Morin and Tammy Nobles are ripping Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) for traveling to El Salvador in an attempt to visit a deported illegal alien, accused of MS-13 gang membership and domestic violence, after ignoring the murders of their daughters in Maryland — 37-year-old Rachel Morin and 20-year-old Kayla Hamilton — both at the hands of illegal aliens. This week, Van Hollen traveled to El Salvador in the hopes of visiting 29-year-old Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an illegal alien who crossed the United States-Mexico border in 2011 and has since been accused of being an MS-13 gang member,...

The White House hosted Patty Morin, the mother of Rachel Morin, a Maryland mother murdered by an illegal immigrant. Her murderer, an illegal immigrant from El Salvador, was convicted this week. Morin talks about witnessing the trial and asks why Sen. Chris Van Hollen is spending "our tax money" to try to retrieve a different illegal immigrant deported to El Salvador. "To have a Senator from Maryland who barely acknowledged my daughter and the brutal death that she endured...use my taxpayer money to fly to El Salvador to bring back someone that's not even an American citizen," she said. "Why...

A bombshell report from the America First Policy Institute has exposed a staggering $100 million in foreign dark money laundered through the Sixteen Thirty Fund to bankroll radical ballot initiatives across 25 states. The Sixteen Thirty Fund, a notorious hub for progressive causes, has been caught funneling foreign cash into state ballot measures targeting divisive issues like abortion, election law, and drug policy. According to the America First Policy Institute: Non-citizens can influence U.S. elections and domestic policy through donations to ballot initiatives. Instead of the ballot initiative process being decided by state residents who are affected by the result,...

Woke officials in Maryland called the police when a Baltimore County high school student asked why there were no American flags on display in classrooms. Parker Jensen, a senior at Towson High School and an aspiring U.S. Marine, was suspended for seven days over the “incident.” Jensen and his family have now filed a lawsuit over the punishment, citing what he believes to be a violation of state education policy and his constitutional rights. The teen came under fire after he visited the Baltimore County Board of Education to inquire about the lack of patriotic flags in school classrooms. However,...

Talk about unintended consequences! In 2023, Maryland Democrats voted to stick it to the Catholic-Church by lifting the statute of limitations on suing for child sexual abuse after an investigative report of the Archdiocese of Baltimore showed over 600 children had been abused there since the 1940s. Now, this might have been well intentioned, but it was also a clear attempt, and a successful one, to damage the Catholic Church in Maryland. But while the lawmakers were busy high-fiving the destruction of those awful Catholics, they ended up stepping in their own trap. Much to their chagrin, they had forgotten...

On Tuesday, in a meeting of the Senate Commerce Committee, the chair of that committee, Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX), had some sharp words for the U.S. Army regarding the January 29th collision of a U.S. Army Black Hawk helicopter with an American Airlines passenger jet near Reagan National Airport. The crash killed 67 people. ... Senator Cruz warned the Army: I want to be explicit to the Army. Every one of us here supports a strong national defense, but the Army does not have at its option ignoring the United States Senate. And if there is another accident, it another...

Washington -- In New Mexico, police and prosecutors backed an effort to outlaw devices that convert pistols into machine guns. In Alabama, the governor made it a priority. Lawmakers in both states - one led by Democrats, the other by Republicans - responded this year with new laws making so-called Glock switches illegal. At least half of US states now have similar laws prohibiting the possession of such devices, a list that has grown over the past decade as law enforcement officers have found more of the tiny yet powerful devices attached to guns. States are mimicking federal law, which...

A Delta Airlines plane carrying 136 people nearly collided with a military jet Friday afternoon in a loss-of-separation incident outside the same DC airport where a mid-air collision took the lives of 67 people in January. Delta Airlines Flight 2983 departed its gate from Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport at 2:55 p.m. local time and was cleared for takeoff to Minneapolis-St. Paul around 3:15 p.m As the commercial plane headed south over the Potomac River, a group of four Northrop T38 Talon jets traveled west toward Arlington National Cemetery for a flyover. The Airbus A319 and the military jet crossed...

Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) said on Friday on MSNBC’s “Deadline” that President Donald Trump was using “secret police” to cause people to “disappear” like authoritarian regimes do. While discussing a Tufts University student Rumeysa Ozturk, 30, being detained by ICE agents, guest host Alicia Menendez said, “Let’s talk about that video that we all just watched, the tactics ICE agents use on Ozturk and then for the next 24 hours, her location being unknown even to her own lawyers.” Van Hollen said, “You’re absolutely right. look, this is a terrifying video. It was obviously terrifying for her, Miss Ozturk....

For Democrats, reaching male voters became a political necessity after last fall’s election, when young men swung significantly toward President Donald Trump. But for some — like Maryland Gov. Wes Moore — it’s also a personal goal. The first-term governor, who has spoken about his own struggles as a teenager, recently announced plans to direct his “entire administration” to find ways to help struggling boys and men. “The well-being of our young men and boys has not been a societal priority,” Moore said in an interview. “I want Maryland to be the one that is aggressive and unapologetic about being...

The Maryland Senate has approved a bill that would use money collected from insurance surcharges to fund abortions in the state. If passed, it would make Maryland the first state to use the $1 surcharge collected from insurance plans sold through the Affordable Care Act (ACA) to pay for the killing of preborn children. Senate Bill 848 was passed Monday, following a similar bill introduced by Lesley J. Lopez in the House of Delegates. Though both passed, the two bills will have to be reconciled before being sent to Governor Wes Moore’s desk to be signed into law. Though the...

President Trump said he will stop the FBI’s plan to move out of its massive downtown Washington headquarters and relocate to suburban Maryland, pledging to keep the law enforcement agency in the nation’s capital. “We’re going to stop. We’re not going to let it happen,” Mr. Trump said in remarks Friday at the Department of Justice. The president condemned the plan to build a new FBI headquarters on a 61-acre plot near the Metro station in Greenbelt. He complained that the Greenbelt location was too far from the Justice Department’s headquarters and the bureau needs to remain downtown to help...

As the Biden administration exited the White House, millions of taxpayer dollars flowed into questionable hands. According to a report from Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA), a vaccine company—barely in existence, registered to a Maryland post office box, and helmed by former Biden administration officials—was quietly handed $28 million in federal funding from the National Institutes of Health’s Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H). In a letter addressed to newly-appointed HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Ernst raised serious concerns about potential corruption, calling the massive federal payout “fishy.” “A vaccine company registered to a PO Box — and run...

Adnan Syed, whose case amassed a worldwide following of “Serial” podcast listeners, will remain free — even though his murder conviction still stands, a Baltimore judge ruled on Thursday. Judge Jennifer Schiffer agreed to reduce Syed’s sentence to time served under a relatively new state law that provides a pathway to release for people convicted of crimes committed when they were minors. The judge ruled that he will be on supervised probation for five years. “After considering the entire record, the court concludes that the Defendant is not a danger to the public and that the interests of justice will...

Representative Jamie Raskin (D-MD) said Sunday on MSNBC’s “Velshi” that President Donald Trump should be censured for calling Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) “Pocahontas” during his address to Congress. Raskin said, “It’s a fair criticism you know, we’ve stayed overwhelmingly unified through this. I think it is a valid critique that we did not have one single strategic plan going into the Donald Trump’s address on that night, whether it was boycott, walkout, sign waving, heckling interruption which is what Marjorie Taylor Greene repeatedly did to Joe Biden. Of course, Biden dealt with that like a man and just responded to...

During the final months of the Biden administration, the National Institutes of Health awarded $28 million to a mysterious venture-backed company called Vaccine Company Inc., a biomedical firm founded in 2022 whose chief financial officer happens to be one of former president Joe Biden’s top COVID advisers. To Sen. Joni Ernst (R., Iowa), the September 2024 grant from the NIH’s Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health doesn’t pass the smell test. Vaccine Company has left virtually no public footprint showing what it has done with the taxpayer funds, which the Biden administration doled out to a seemingly random post office...
