    Ben Schrader, Chief of the Criminal Division of the US Attorney's Office for the Middle District of Tennessee, resigned in protest after a federal grand jury indicted Kilmar Abrego Garcia for transporting undocumented migrants within the United States during the years 2016 through 2025. "This prosecution is wrong on so many levels," Schrader complained. "When US District Judge James Boasberg ordered President Trump to retrieve this man he had deported to El Salvador the Judge's intent was that he would be set free, not be indicted and prosecuted. It's just more contempt of court from Trump." "Worse still, Mr. Abrego...

    A peer-reviewed study by Charlotte Lozier Institute reviewed nearly 30,000 visits to emergency rooms by women who had undergone either a surgical or chemical abortion and found that 80% of these visits were falsely recorded as miscarriages. Those who recommend chemical abortions routinely advise women who require immediate medical assistance to lie at the emergency room. The fear is that if the true cause of the emergency were reported it would negatively impact the sale of these abortion pills. In fact, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists usually advise medical personnel to not ask women if their urgent health...

    U.S. — The LA immigration riots have come to a swift and sudden end following a decisive nuclear strike ordered by President Donald Trump. At precisely 6 AM on Tuesday, an American Northrop B-2 Spirit stealth bomber dropped a 500 kiloton atomic bomb on Downtown Los Angeles, destroying all violent rioters and also everything else. Pentagon officials described the blast as having more power than 500,000 tons of TNT or 20-30 times more powerful than the detonations in Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. Initial casualty estimates are estimated to be between 500,000 and 1,000,000 with up to 200,000 more expected...

    LOS ANGELES, CA — As has become the standard operating procedure for the military branch over the last half-century, 700 members of the United States Marines found themselves being deployed to yet another third-world country that is full of hostile foreigners. In this latest deployment to a non-English-speaking wasteland, the Marines were supremely confident that they would be able to handle the marauding hordes of foreign nationals, despite the inhospitable conditions presented by the rubble and destruction of the surroundings. "Same thing, different day," said Sergeant Heath Parsons. "We know the drill. We train and prepare until the day when...

    LOS ANGELES — As immigration riots spread across the city, local rioter and ruffian Eduardo Perez expressed regret that he could not find any houses to burn down since they all burned down in the wildfires back in January. "What are we even fighting for if there aren't any more houses to burn down?" Perez reportedly said, forlorn. "This is all because of Governor Newsom's terrible forest management!" Perez isn't alone. Social workers are reportedly stretched thin, overwhelmed by a caseload comprised almost entirely of communist arsonists without homes to arson. "I wanted to watch the city burn," lamented arsonist...

    Adams, Former Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D-NY) promised that if he is elected mayor of New York City he will "spend eight years in Washington leading the fight against Trump." While acknowledging that this campaign promise "might seem to be outside the normal scope of a mayor's job, vowing to fight Trump has been a key factor in the elections of other Democrats in New York. Democrats hate Trump more than anything. Two-thirds of the City's voters are registered Democrats. It's a winning platform." Cuomo also dismissed the chances of his rivals, saying "the typical budgets and boroughs issues that Republicans...

    LOS ANGELES, CA — According to sources, President Trump responded to fiery but mostly peaceful protests in the City of Angels by activating the mostly peaceful National Guard. Governor Gavin Newsom has called the show of mostly peaceful force by the Trump administration "uncool." "What we have are mostly peaceful migrants making their voices mostly peacefully heard by throwing Molotov cocktails and looting businesses," Newsom said. "All of which is protected by the Bill of Rights. Read the Constitution." But the situation on the ground hadn't improved much as of Monday morning. Now, a battalion of 500 mostly peaceful Marines...

    Rep. Becca Balint (D-Vt) made the strongest argument yet for why we need to increase immigration, saying "if we don't have avenues for people to come here legally we're not going to have anybody around to do the jobs Americans are not willing to do. One of the more distasteful things each of us has to do is wipe our asses. The same hand we eat with comes within a thin piece of toilet paper of contacting our own excrement. We are a rich enough country to not have to do this ourselves. In past times many of the elite...

    On CNN's "Anderson Cooper 360," political commentator Van Jones urged President Donald Trump "to take this opportunity to win his feud with Musk by punishing all of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) employees Musk left behind. Trump may be top dog right now, but he's only got a few years left to affect public policy. The much richer and younger Musk has 40 years left. Trump needs to recognize that these DOGE employees are dangerous." "You think Trump should prosecute them?" Cooper asked. "Yes. He needs to learn from the Biden Administration's lawfare against him and ramp up a...

    Despite the fact that the Covid pandemic was officially declared over as of May of 2023 and the federal funds authorized in the American Rescue Plan Act had a "use by date" of December 31, 2024, Manhattan District Judge Edgardo Ramos ruled that Education Secretary Linda McMahon cannot recover the unused funds. McMahon argued that "these funds were intended to aid schools impacted by the shutdowns imposed in 2020. The money was intended to support pandemic recovery efforts like constructing sneeze guards in classrooms, tutoring students being remotely educated, and assistance for homeless students. The schools have been open for...

    According to political analyst Nate Silver, "the problem Democrats are having attracting male voters is that they are too mentally healthy to vote for Democrats. The Cooperative Election Study survey showed that 40% of Generation Z males consider their mental health to be "very good" or "excellent." In contrast, only 20% of Generation Z females say theirs is "very good" or "excellent." The same survey found that 51% of conservatives say their mental health is excellent. Only 20% of liberals say the same. When asked whether they have "poor mental health" 45% of liberals said yes. Only 19% of conservatives...

    This week, FBI Assistant Director for Public Affairs Ben Williamson clarified the agency's new position on gay pride activities. "I've received several questions about the FBI's stance on Pride Month and what related activities FBI divisions and employees should or should not participate in," he said in an email to assistant directors and special agents. "So, I want to take the opportunity to make FBI leadership's expectations clear: There should be no official FBI actions, events, or messaging regarding Pride Month." "You are free to do whatever you want on your own time," he added. "The FBI's job as the...

    WASHINGTON, D.C. — In a merciful miracle, the Spirit of the Lord strengthened Elon one last time to push the pillars of Congress over, bringing the government crashing down. According to sources at the Capitol, the miracle occurred just in time to stop Congress's "big, beautiful" spending bill from being passed, while also causing the entire Capitol Building to violently collapse. Experts say the bill now has little chance of passage, as it is buried in rubble along with several hundred politicians. "Elon called to the Lord," said one witness. "He said, 'O Lord God, please remember me and...

    BOULDER, CO — The controversy surrounding a horrific attack over the weekend continued today, as a Colorado court ruled that Jewish victims must bake a cake for the terrorist who lit them on fire. The ruling, handed down early Monday morning after Sunday's terrorist attack in which a Muslim illegal alien from Egypt viciously burned Jewish people at a pro-Israel event, mandated that the badly burned victims of the attack bake their assailant a cake within the next 30 days or face consequences. "Refusal to bake a cake for the man who burned them would be horribly prejudiced," said District...

    The shift of young male voters to Trump in the November 2024 elections was enough to give him and other Republicans a solid victory. Rep. Jason Crow (D-Co) is heading up an effort to recruit candidates for the 2026 mid-term elections. He said "there are very real questions about the path forward. People who used to be Democrats now vote for Trump. We seem to have pushed these people away from our Party. Maybe LGBTQ, transgender support, and open borders aren't the right issues for the voters we aren't getting." "We're considering investing $20 million to develop a 'Speaking with...

    CHICAGO, IL — In an incident that brought swift condemnation from Democrats across the country, a local man was immediately arrested and charged with a hate crime for casting a shadow on a Pride crosswalk. The brazen act was allegedly perpetrated by a man later identified as Leonard Morgan, an electrician who claimed to have simply "walked by" the crosswalk on his way to a customer's house. Witnesses said Morgan's shadow could be clearly seen being cast over the crosswalk for over two seconds, which was a clear violation of the law. "There's no place in this city — or...

    Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY) assailed the Big Beautiful Bill's cuts to Medicaid as "an unfair assault on the heath of America's most vulnerable people. Millions will be denied coverage. Others will be forced to work in order to get health care. When voters find out what Republicans are doing they will vote them out of office." Rep. Erin Houchin (R-Ind) defended the legislation, saying "if you think about the four things that we're doing in Medicaid to strengthen it, you'll see that we're removing any payments that are illegal, ineligible or duplicate, and we're ensuring that able-bodied adults have a...

    MT. VERNON, VA — In a massive scandal upending centuries of historical beliefs, researchers have discovered that George Washington signed the vast majority of his orders with an auto-feather device. "After careful study and research of early American history, we've discovered a device called the 'Auto-Feather' that George Washington used to sign pretty much every one of his presidential orders," historian Fineas T. Barlow told the press. "We have even learned he used the auto-feather device to issue military orders and even to sign letters to his wife." Historians discovered the auto-feather while looking through an old storage cupboard in...
