Police have arrested a suspect nearly four months after a New Jersey Republican councilwoman was gunned down in her car as she was nearing her home. Rashid Ali Bynum, 28, was arrested and charged in the murder of 30-year-old Eunice Dwumfour, who was shot and killed on the evening of February 1. Dwumfour and Bynum knew each other from working together at Champions Royal Assembly, a Nigeria-based prosperity gospel church in Newark, police said, according to ABC 7. “This was a very complex, extensive case with painstaking police work every single moment until today and it will continue after today,”...

For the first time in the U.S., an identical twin has been convicted of a crime based on DNA analysis. The breakthrough came from Parabon Nanolabs, who’s scientists used deep whole genome sequencing to identify extremely rare “somatic mutations” that differentiated Russell Marubbio and his twin, John. The results were admitted as evidence in court, making last week’s conviction of Russell in the 1987 rape of a 50-year-old woman a landmark case. Case background On Dec. 19, 1987, the victim, a 50-year-old woman, was working as a clerk at a gas station in Woodbridge, Va. She left the store to...

Abigail Spanberger, the Democrat running for governor of Virginia this fall, has chosen as her running mate, a state senator named Ghazala Hashmi, a Muslim with a history of bashing Virginia voters as racists. If you live in Virginia, prepare to hear a lot more about race if these two Democrats win. It will seem like old times. It’s also worth noting that Hashmi helped kill legislation that would allow parents to know if their child identified as transgender while at school.

Democratic Senator Tim Kaine from Virginia, in a hearing on Wednesday, told the room: The notion that rights don't come from laws, and don't come from the government, but come from the Creator... That's what the Iranian government believes... So the statement that our rights do not come from our laws or our governments is extremely troubling.

Two opposing political groups stood on Jackson Middle School’s lawn. One group, decked out in rainbow colors, sporting bright pink socks, sea-green hair, and trans flags, held their signs up in the air, presenting them both to the cars passing by and to the conservative group behind them. But the group behind them, in the process of holding a press conference on the lawn, was not there to oppose transgender ideology. They were there to hold the Fairfax County School Board accountable during an ongoing investigation by the Virginia State Police. The investigation began when Walter Curt, an independent investigative...

There are two interesting items in the 1776 Constitution for the State of Virginia. The first one is in the second paragraph and it reads as follows: Whereas George the Third, King of Great Britain and Ireland, and Elector of Hanover, heretofore intrusted with the exercise of the Kingly Office in this Government, hath endeavoured to pervert the same into a detestable and insupportable Tyranny; by putting his negative on laws the most wholesome and necessary for the publick good;"Putting his negative" What this means is a veto. This would upset anybody. The people of Virginia want to do something,...

It was 230 years ago Sunday that Robert Carter III, the patriarch of one of the wealthiest families in Virginia, quietly walked into a Northumberland County courthouse and delivered an airtight legal document announcing his intention to free, or manumit, more than 500 slaves. He titled it the “deed of gift.” It was, by far, experts say, the largest liberation of Black people before President Abraham Lincoln signed the District of Columbia Emancipation Act and Emancipation Proclamation more than seven decades later. On September 5, 1791, when Carter delivered his deed, slavery was an institution, a key engine of the...

Conservative activist Scott Presler is sounding the alarm for Republicans, warning that unless the party immediately changes its strategy, November could bring devastating losses. In a late-night video, Presler said he wasn’t trying to spread doom and gloom, but reality. “I’m not here to bring you a happy video. I’m here to give you a dose of reality,” he began. "I'm here to tell you, Republicans are gonna lose everything this November unless we change things and quickly." Presler pointed to three key battlegrounds—Virginia, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania—where Republicans are in danger of losing everything. “You’re gonna lose the governorship...

George Mason University’s efforts to diversify its workforce violate a civil rights law intended to end segregation, according to the Trump administration.Following a roughly six-week-long investigation of GMU’s hiring practices, the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights (OCR) has found that the Northern Virginia-based university violated Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits discrimination based on race in public education.To resolve the alleged violation, the department has proposed an agreement that would require Mason President Gregory Washington to issue a statement and “personal apology … for promoting unlawful discriminatory practices in hiring, promotion, and...

The Gateway Pundit reported on this story: The radical madness in Loudoun County, Virginia, just hit a new low. Loudoun County Public Schools (LCPS) has decided to SUSPEND two boys at Stone Bridge High School, not because they misbehaved, not because they broke the law, but...

It's time, Mr. President. In fact, it's the perfect time; there's likely not going to be a better one. Yes, you have your reasons for hesitating to endorse Winsome Earle-Sears for governor in Virginia; it's understandable that you might not want to put your personal seal of approval on a candidate who didn't have your back in 2022 when you announced you were running for a second term. Politics is an ugly game, and there are few who've experienced that more keenly than you. But, that was then, and this is now. This past week—and Thursday night in Arlington, in...

A liberal protester targeting Virginia Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears with a racist sign has gone viral and caused confusion over her intentions. Earle-Sears, the Republican nominee in the 2025 Virginia gubernatorial election, attended an Arlington County School Board meeting where she spoke out against a policy that allows transgender students to use girls’ locker rooms and bathrooms. The meeting occurred as a result of a threat by the Department of Education to cut off federal funding from the school district over its bathroom policy. A transgender rights rally was held outside the meeting in support of the school district’s policy....

Liberal media bias and hypocrisy are on full display in Virginia. Winsome Earle-Sears, the current lieutenant governor of Virginia, is the Republican nominee for governor. It’s impossible to find a starker compare-and-contrast between the media and cultural “elites”’ treatment of Earle-Sears and Stacey Abrams, who shares key similarities with Earle-Sears. Both are black women from battleground states (Abrams from Georgia), who earned their respective party’s nomination for governor in America’s South. The difference: Abrams is a Democrat, and thus worthy of expansive, fawning media coverage—though Abrams checks fewer of the Left’s prized identity boxes than Earle-Sears, a Jamaican immigrant. The...

Fox News’ resident leftist Jessica Tarlov has once again embarrassed herself, this time rushing to defend an illegal alien on social media before being forced to delete her tweet in disgrace. The Gateway Pundit previously reported that D.C. police tackled an illegal alien on the National Mall after he tried to flee. Video captured him shouting in Spanish, “Please! I’m not a criminal. I work here! I want to be with my family!” Without missing a beat, Tarlov rushed to X to blast Trump’s law-and-order approach. She wrote: “This doesn’t make D.C. safer. It’ll just make people not come to...

Two teenage boys have been suspended from a Virginia high school for sexual harassment after confronting a transgender student about their presence in the male locker room.
