MacArthur Park is not a war zone. It is a playground, a picnic spot, a community spot. But you wouldn’t know that looking at it now. Why send armed agents to terrorize a community?

(The Lion) — A well-regarded education watchdog has published a raft of alarming resolutions adopted by the National Education Association at its latest national assembly. They include a measure that encourages resistance of federal immigration enforcement and another that mandates labeling President Donald Trump a fascist in all union materials. Senior Fellow at the American Culture Project Corey DeAngelis obtained a copy of the NEA’s recently passed resolutions and posted them to X. “I just received a copy of the National Education Association’s resolutions that they passed at their annual convention,” said DeAngelis. “They kept them private this year.” It’s...

Current and former USAID and State Department officials are using their expertise in undermining authoritarian regimes abroad against President Donald Trump and his agenda at home, according to a new report Monday. The Trump administration is still in the process of terminating thousands of United States Agency for International Development (USAID) workers by September as the agency restructures to fall in line with the president's "America First" policy.

Disgruntled current and former federal employees are teaming up to to unleash a “color revolution” against President Trump using the same tactics they have employed to sow distrust in overseas governments, according to a new report. Former intelligence staffers with USAID and the State Department believe they can astroturf an uprising to overthrow Trump, hindering his ability to splinter their network even further. Many were laid off during the early months of his administration when the U.S. Department of Government Efficiency was largely unfettered in firing vast swaths of the federal bureaucracy. The “future of democracy” is on the line,...

Contrary to widespread perception, magistrate judges wield extraordinary power despite having no constitutional standing under Article III... As the legal wrangling continues over a magistrate judge’s decision to release accused human trafficker Kilmar Abrego Garcia from federal custody, it’s worth taking a closer look not just at the role of Magistrate Judge Barbara Holmes in this case, but at the broader system of magistrate judges across the country. Contrary to widespread perception, reinforced by misleading media coverage, these judges wield extraordinary power despite having no constitutional standing under Article III. Garcia is an illegal immigrant from El Salvador who was...

The administration has been trying to deport the...

Democratic election lawyer Marc Elias has lost his bid to thwart a Kansas law banning foreign actors from funneling money into state-level ballot initiatives. In May, the Elias Law Group, the eponymous law firm of the election attorney, jointly filed a federal lawsuit challenging the ban, enacted as H.B. 2106, on behalf of the foreign-funded Kansans for Constitutional Freedom. This week, an Obama-appointed judge issued a scathing ruling rejecting the plaintiff’s request for a preliminary injunction “premised on an unconstitutional overbreadth theory.” H.B. 2106, which amends the state’s Campaign Finance Act, prohibits donations from foreign nationals in support or defeat...

President Donald Trump and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem discussed the matter with reporters at the grand opening of a Florida detention facility known as “Alligator Alcatraz.” A reporter brought up border czar Tom Homan’s assertion that CNN should be prosecuted for essentially promoting the app to its readers. “We're working with the Department of Justice to see if we can prosecute them for that, because what they're...

A federal judge on Tuesday blocked the Trump administration from moving forward with plans to overhaul the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services by reorganizing several of its agencies and substantially cutting their workforce. U.S. District Judge Melissa DuBose in Providence, Rhode Island, issued an injunction at the behest of a group of Democratic-led states who challenged a plan HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr announced in March to consolidate agencies and fire 10,000 of the department’s employees. The layoffs, in addition to earlier buyout offers and firings of probationary employees, reduced the number of full-time HHS employees to...

Unreal. CNN is now promoting an app which tracks the movement of ICE agents to warn illegals. ICE agents face a 500% increase in assault and threats. CNN knows exactly what they’re doing.
