Democrats are building a foundation for the obliteration of the Second Amendment. In the Heller and Bruen decisions, the Supreme Court ruled the Second Amendment acknowledges, but does not create, a fundamental, unalienable, individual right. Unalienable rights are bestowed by God; government cannot give or take them. The Court also ruled Americans may carry guns—mostly concealed handguns--wherever they go, with some exceptions such as courtrooms, jails, law enforcement facilities, and other “sensitive” areas. An equally important ruling was that guns in common use are presumptively constitutional. Those decisions made Democrat heads explode and contributed mightily to their cries of Supreme...

California Gov. Gavin Newsom said Wednesday that his administration will seek to impose a 100 percent tax on any California residents who receive money from President Donald Trump’s newly created $1.776 billion “anti-weaponization” fund. Speaking to reporters, Newsom denounced the fund as a “slush fund” and pledged to block Californians from financially benefiting from it. “Anyone from California that receives any of those funds, we want to tax 100 percent of those proceeds,” Newsom said during a press conference. “He pardoned all of those folks that were beating up cops and absolved them, providing them 1.776 billion dollars,” Newsom said....

ALBANY — Lawmakers voted to enshrine New York’s sanctuary state status into law Thursday, imposing a sweeping ban on cooperation between local law enforcement and US Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The sprawling legislative package, pushed by Gov. Kathy Hochul, not only handcuffs cops from partnering with federal immigration authorities, but also bars ICE agents from most public places like hospitals and parks, and prevents them from wearing masks. The measure, which was significantly ratcheted up from Hochul’s original proposal that largely only went after specific localities, like Nassau County, that have cooperation deals dubbed “287-g agreements” with the feds. The...

Assemblyman González claims ICE agents are ‘killers, terror instigators, and kidnappers’ California’s proposed “GTFO Act” is exactly what it sounds like: “Get the Feds Out.” Well, that’s what they claim it means. Assembly Bill 1896 by Assemblyman Mark González (D-Los Angeles), would bar ICE agents or Department of Homeland Security employees who participated in immigration enforcement during the second Trump administration from holding any public employment in California. Gonzalez claims ICE agents ignored “unlawful orders.” AB 1896 “Disqualifies individuals who engaged in immigration enforcement activity between January 20, 2025, and January 20, 2029 from holding state, county, or local public...

The Trump administration is yanking $74 million in federal highway grants from the Empire State for refusing to comply with the feds’ demand that it boot immigrant truck drivers with expired work authorizations off the roads, The Post has learned. The US Department of Transportation warned Gov. Kathy Hochul’s Department of Motor Vehicles, in a bombshell letter on Thursday, that continued non-compliance could lead Washington to withhold another $147 million in highway funding grants. “I promised the American people I would hold any state leader accountable for failing to keep them safe from unvetted, unqualified foreign drivers. I’m delivering on...

This spring, universities are hosting “UndocuGraduation” ceremonies for illegal alien students that are closed to the public and separate from traditional commencement ceremonies. Schools describe the ceremonies as “private” or “intimate,” likely out of deportation fears, requiring advance registration and only revealing the location to confirmed attendees. Many of these events are hosted by university resource centers for illegal alien students, which provide instructional guidance on how to handle interactions with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers to best avoid arrest and deportation. These centers also often provide taxpayer-funded legal services for illegal alien students. 1. University of California, San...

Seattle has become so liberal (socialist) that a glitch in their armor is so different up here.

A Long Beach mayoral candidate is drawing intense scrutiny after issuing what critics describe as a reckless and potentially dangerous call for gang involvement in opposing federal immigration enforcement. Rogelio Martinez, who is running for mayor of Long Beach, California, posted a statement urging local gang leaders to mobilize against Immigration and Customs Enforcement as part of his push to make the city “ICE free.” In the message, Martinez explicitly called on gangs to organize and appear in person at City Hall, language that opponents say amounts to an invitation for confrontation with federal authorities. “I am calling every gang...

In recent days, it has become clear that the Battle of Minneapolis is, at its core, a battle over the continued existence of sanctuary cities. During the 2024 presidential campaign, President Donald Trump promised to pursue “the worst of the worst” of illegal immigrants. As of September 30, 2024, Immigration and Customs Enforcement reported that there were 1,426,932 people who were in the country illegally and who had received a final order of deportation from an immigration judge. Many Trump supporters thought those people were the best place for Trump to begin a ramp-up of federal immigration law enforcement. After...

With some sympathy, I have been contemplating the sorry lot of anti-ICE activists in a non-sanctuary state with a government rated as the least corrupt in the nation. Braving near Minnesota temperatures, a half dozen Mesozoic creatures stood out in the latte town of Exeter Sunday morning, holding “ICE = GESTAPO” and “TRUMP = HITLER” signs. Upon the recommendation of a friend in law enforcement, I did not go join them, without identification and carrying a loaded 9 millimeter with extra magazines. In Minnesota, youthful members of Antifa and Democratic Socialists of America man the barricades, but here in New...

VIDEOAs you can see, Minnesota Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan was regularly posting on TikTok right up to the day, January 25, 2026, when she was EXPOSED as being an Administrator of the Signal chat under the not very secret code name of "Flan Southside" directing Minneapolis insurrectionists with instructions on how to IMPEDE federal law enforcement officers.

It will be very very interesting to see what, if ever, she posts on TikTok the next...
