A new cellphone video released by Alpha News appears to show the perspective of an ICE agent involved in the fatal shooting of a woman in Minneapolis on Wednesday. Department of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement sent to Newsweek, "This footage corroborates what DHS has stated all along—that this individual was impeding law enforcement and weaponized her vehicle in an attempt to kill or cause bodily harm to federal law enforcement. The officer was in fear of his own life, the lives of his fellow officers and acted in self-defense. The American people can watch...

The same party that brought you the “Maryland Dad” narrative for Kilmar Abrego Garcia now wants to sell you the narrative of the innocent “Minnesota Mom" for Renee Nicole Good. Good is not a MS-13 gang member or a human trafficker like Abrego Garcia, but she’s not the scared and confused mom who just happened to find herself caught up in an ICE operation that she didn't understand and panicked. According to a new report, she was “an anti-ICE ‘warrior’ and was part of a group of activists who worked to ‘document and resist’ the federal immigration crackdown in Minnesota.”(snip)...

The left's "Minneapolis mom" narrative is fading fast as more information about Renee Nicole Good, the woman shot and killed Wednesday after she used her vehicle as a weapon against federal law enforcement officers, comes to light. Far from being a new-in-town gentle soul, Good was reportedly a rabidly anti-Trump radical who had been trained as an "ICE Watch warrior," and presumably knew what she was doing when she behaved aggressively toward the officers. Democrats and their leftist foot soldiers have spent the last day tying themselves into knots trying to cast blame for Good's death on the ICE agent...

A Wisconsin man accused of killing his parents and stealing their money to fund a plan to assassinate President Donald Trump is set to enter a plea deal resolving the case Thursday. Nikita Casap, 18, is expected to agree to the deal during a morning hearing in Waukesha County Circuit Court in suburban Milwaukee. He goes into the hearing facing multiple charges, including two homicide counts, two counts of hiding a corpse and theft, with a trial scheduled to begin March 2. Online court records did not list the terms of the plea agreement. Harm Venhuizen, a spokesperson for the...

A woman was arrested live on camera in Grand Rapids, Michigan, while talking to a local newscast about protesting the U.S. government’s sudden takeover of Venezuela. Jessica Plichta helped Grand Rapids Opponents of War organize the turnout Saturday, which inspired dozens of locals to march through snowy city streets. But in a bizarre turn of events, Plichta’s decision to exercise her First Amendment rights ended when local authorities handcuffed her on the sidewalk while she was live on air. “We have to apply pressure at all points that we can, this is not just a foreign issue,” Plichta said before...

Backdrop On October 31, 2025, Pastor Gary McKibben and I conducted a livestream titled Per Aspera Ad Astra—Latin for “through hardship to the stars”—a phrase famously embraced by Jack Parsons, one of the godfathers of America’s early space program. In that discussion, we traced the modern rocketry enterprise back to Parsons and his notorious, explosion-prone circle of engineers at Caltech and JPL, sometimes nicknamed the “Suicide Squad.” Yet Parsons’s obsession extended far beyond propulsion and pyrotechnics. By the mid-1940s, he was deeply immersed in the ritual occultism of Aleister Crowley and Crowley’s system of Thelema, attempting to merge technological ascent...

Video shows the moment the unidentified woman suddenly changed her tune and begged for mercy after being stopped... The woman ran a red light, nearly struck a school bus and wove through traffic as she tried to box in ICE vehicles with her car,... 'Please, give me a warning. I have kids,' she begged as officers informed...

The mother of Joshua Jahn — the sniper who killed two migrants in a shooting at a Dallas immigration facility — had posted a series of anti-gun rants on Facebook aimed at Republican lawmakers just a few years ago. Sharon Jahn lashed out at Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and GOP senators Ted Cruz and John Cornyn over their support for the Second Amendment in resurfaced Facebook posts from May 2022. “Governor Abbott, Senator Cornyn and Senator Cruz how does it make you feel that your action to open up gun laws is responsible for the killing of 21 more people?”...

The headline to Tuesday’s screed in Variety by Michael Schneider, the Hollywood-based entertainment mag’s executive editor for TV, was as subtle as a Michael Bay movie: “As Fascism Takes Hold in the U.S.,How Will — and Should — the TV Landscape Depict Our Real-Life Horrors?” Schneider railed against living in a world “where our rights are continually under attack, our speech threatened, our healthcare slashed, our standing on the world stage destroyed, a secret police in ICE now roaming the streets and violently arresting people without just cause, military forces are being moved into our cities because they don’t support...

There was a video that made the rounds a few days ago, and I can’t get it out of my mind. In some ways, it’s a garden-variety video of a crazy lady. What makes it memorable is that it’s being framed as the quintessential “leftist Karen.” That raises an interesting question: Does leftism make women crazy, or are crazy women drawn to leftism? The question sounds simple, but it actually has serious implications for American society. The video shows a woman chasing after a man because he violated her standards by having a purebred dog, from which she inferred that...

Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., spoke to Fox News Digital about the Federal Reserve, noting that he would support abolishing it if the nation stops deficit spending. "There is no more powerful and secretive organization than the Federal Reserve" ...

With each passing week, Chief Justice John Roberts and his Republican-friendly colleagues bestow never-before-enjoyed authorities upon the Trump Administration. The plan seems to be — if we grant the president everything he dreams of, maybe he’ll leave the high court unmolested. The republic may fall but we’ll still have the cool robes and life tenure. John Roberts is becoming the Neville Chamberlain of post-democratic government in America. Recent steps by the Supreme Court have allowed the executive branch to decimate the Department of Education, summarily fire tens of thousands of other civil servants, permit “third country removals” to notoriously dangerous...

This comes after the DNC invested $20 million into her youth engagement campaign targeting young male voters—a campaign that has, to date, produced little to no measurable results.

VIDEOLove is in the air again! Why? Because Maryland Man" aka Kilmar Abrego Garcia is being brought back to the States to face a host of charges including human trafficking and murder. Such a wonderful guy which is why the Liberal Pink Hat Lady is now chock full of renewed love for her beloved as you can see. Meanwhile, the beaten up wife of "Maryland Man" is most likely praying fervently to Our Lady of Guadalupe that he is NEVER allowed out of prison ever again.

Kamala Harris left an audience baffled as she laughed and talked about Playboy magazine covers. The former vice president also launched into a confusing 'word salad' after being asked about the importance of humility. Her bizarre comments were made on Sunday during a question and answer session at the Australian Real Estate Conference, where she shared a 'funny' story about her mother. Harris sat on stage with real estate industry veteran John McGrath for over an hour and recalled that her mother was very focused on women's reproductive health, which included sharing her thoughts about 'fibroids' and 'hormones.' She said:...

A former housing official recently made a shocking allegation that, if true, will prove the most wasteful and arguably sinister government expenditure of all. Catherine Austin Fitts, who served as the assistant secretary of Housing and Urban Development for Housing between 1989 and 1990, appeared on former Fox News host Tucker Carlson’s podcast last Tuesday to claim that the United States government has spent a whopping $21 TRILLION over several years building an underground city for the wealthiest and most powerful in the country. To help back up her allegation, the 74-year-old Fitts cited a report released by Michigan State...

A former housing official who worked under President George H. W. Bush has made an astonishing claim that the U.S. government spent years funneling money into the creation of a secret underground “city” where the rich and powerful can shelter in the event of a “near-extinction event.” Catherine Austin Fitts, who served as the assistant secretary of Housing and Urban Development for Housing between 1989 and 1990, made the shocking allegations during an appearance on former Fox News host Tucker Carlson’s podcast, although there is no concrete evidence to support her claims. Fitts, 74, who is originally from Philadelphia, cited...

LONDON (Reuters) - Leonardo da Vinci's drawings of machines are uncannily similar to Chinese originals and were undoubtedly derived from them, a British amateur historian says in a newly-published book. Gavin Menzies sparked headlines across the globe in 2002 with the claim that Chinese sailors reached America 70 years before Christopher Columbus. Now he says a Chinese fleet brought encyclopedias of technology undiscovered by the West to Italy in 1434, laying the foundation for the engineering marvels such as flying machines later drawn by Italian polymath Leonardo.
