DOJ Opens Investigation Into Portland Police After Weeks Of Violent Rioting– trendingpoliticsnews.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

The U.S. Justice Department is opening an investigation into the Portland Police Bureau’s “questionable” practice surrounding weeks of sustained attacks and violent rioting targeting federal buildings and agents in the city.

The news was announced just hours after conservative journalist Nick Sortor was arrested by Portland Police after he was surrounded by a mob of far-left rioters, some of whom damaged his equipment and ultimately assaulted him. Despite the circumstances of the attack, Sortor was taken into custody and charged with disorderly conduct.

Just a day before, on-the-ground reporter Katie Daviscourt — who has consistently documented far-left and Antifa violence in Portland, Seattle and other cities — was assaulted with a metal poll. The incident was captured on camera, though the perpetrator was not arrested despite the fact that an officer was standing just feet away.

The Portland Police Bureau confirmed that one of its “dialogue liaison officers,” sworn officers tasked with “hold[ing] a safe space” for protesters, lost track of the suspect. The DLO followed the woman, who was described as a white female with a large septum nose piercing wearing a black mask and carrying a backpack, trying to talk to her to “hear her side of the story,” according to a news release from the department.

J.B. Pritzker Cries “Trump’s Invasion”, Gavin Newsom Warns “America Is on the Brink of Martial Law”, After President Trump Orders Texas National Guard Troops to Chicago and Portland | The Gateway Pundit– www.thegatewaypundit.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

President Donald Trump on Sunday ordered the deployment of four hundred Texas National Guard troops, with the consent of Gov. Greg Abbott (R), to Illinois and Oregon to protect ICE agents and federal facilities under violent siege by Antifa and other leftist terrorists in Chicago and Portland.

The orders federalize about 2,000 Texas National Guard under Northern Command, authorizing their deployment to “Illinois, Oregon and other locations throughout the United States,” with an initial deployment of 400 troops to Portland and Chicago.

The move follows Trump ordering California National Guard troops to Portland after a federal judge on Saturday blocked Trump from deploying the Oregon National Guard. Oregon, California and Portland went to court Sunday night to fight the new California orders.

California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) flipped out earlier Sunday when he learned Trump, who had already federalized the state guard to protect Los Angeles in June, sent California National Guard troops to Portland, calling the orders “appalling” and “un-American.”

California’s Vague ‘Hate Speech’ Bill Would Censor Conservatives– thefederalist.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

California lawmakers are once again leading the charge — not toward progress, but toward repression. Their latest move, Senate Bill 771 (SB-771), is being packaged as a bold stand against “hate” on social media. In reality, it’s a direct assault on the free expression and constitutionally protected speech of ministries, minority groups, and faith-based organizations.

The bill would force Big Tech to remove content that could be interpreted as “harassment” or “intimidation” based on race, gender identity, sexual orientation, and more — or face financially devastating lawsuits.

If Gov. Gavin Newsom signs this bill into law as expected, it will become one of the most dangerous speech-restricting laws in the country. Cloaked in the language of civil rights, SB-771 is built to punish dissent from progressive orthodoxy.

The target is anyone who dares to speak publicly about values or perspectives that conflict with the state’s ever-expanding list of protected identities. In practice, this means community groups sharing discussions on traditional family structures, cultural views on gender roles, or advocacy for certain social issues may find themselves silenced — not by law enforcement, but by tech giants eager to avoid legal risk.

UK Government Advances Plan to Mandate Digital ID for All Children– slaynews.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

The British government is quietly pushing through legislation that critics warn will expand cradle-to-grave surveillance, override parental rights, and lay the foundation for a dystopian control grid targeting children.

Branded the “Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill,” the measure is being sold to the public as a way to “safeguard” children and improve welfare.

In reality, the bill aligns seamlessly with the government’s digital ID agenda and globalist goals that have nothing to do with protecting children.

Introduced in December 2024, the legislation has already passed three readings in the House of Commons and is now before the House of Lords.

While marketed as a children’s welfare initiative, it contains sweeping provisions to expand government data collection, force compliance monitoring, and entrench state authority over education and child-rearing.

Newsom to Pull Funding from Schools Who Agree Not to Racially Discriminate Under Trump’s New Plan– www.westernjournal.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom issued an ultimatum on Thursday to universities in the state, warning them that entering an agreement with the Trump administration will put them directly at odds with the governor.

After the White House proposed a deal to nine universities promising that compliance with the administration’s agenda could grant them priority treatment in funding decisions, Newsom issued a harsh warning to any “sell-out universities” that might accept it.

The offer in Trump’s “Compact for Academic Excellence in Higher Education” asks schools to stop racially discriminating in admissions and hiring decisions and commit to institutional neutrality and upholding free speech. Newsom said any school that complies with the federal government will “lose billions in state funding” instead.

“If any California University signs this radical agreement, they’ll lose billions in state funding — including Cal Grants — instantly,” Newsom said in a press release. “California will not bankroll schools that sell out their students, professors, researchers, and surrender academic freedom.”

Mathematicians Discover Prime Number Pattern in Fractal Chaos– www.scientificamerican.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

Prime numbers are sometimes called math’s “atoms” because they can be divided by only themselves and 1. For two millennia, mathematicians have wondered if the prime numbers are truly random, or if some unknown pattern underlies their ordering. Recently number theorists have proposed several surprising conjectures on prime patterns—in particular, probabilistic patterns that show up in large groups of the mathematical atoms.

The patterns in the primes trace back to an 1859 hypothesis involving the legendary Riemann zeta function. Mathematician Bernhard Riemann derived a function that counts the number of primes up to a number x. It includes three main ingredients: a smooth estimate, a set of corrective terms coming from the Riemann zeta function, and a small error term.

Much has been written about the Riemann zeta function, but the most important thing to know is that it provides a correction to the smooth estimate. To do so, it takes on a wavy pattern, sometimes raising the count, sometimes lowering it. These corrective oscillations are determined by the locations of the zeros of the Riemann zeta function. In fact, the celebrated Riemann hypothesis claims that all such zeros lie on a “critical line” where the real part equals 12.

Excerpt:

President Donald Trump on Sunday deployed 300 California National Guard personnel to Portland, Oregon, a longtime hotbed of left-wing extremism where violent riots targeting federal buildings and facilities have persisted for months. The move comes after a federal judge in Oregon attempted to block the president from taking federal control of the Oregon national guard in order to deploy 200 troops.

The news was shared by an irate California Governor Gavin Newsom, who lost a court case earlier this year when California Attorney General Rob Bonta attempted to block the president from doing the same with the state’s national guard in order to quell several days of sustained unrest. The California deployment is ongoing at the discretion of War Secretary Pete Hegseth.

“After a federal court blocked his attempt to federalize the Oregon National Guard, Donald Trump is deploying 300 California National Guard personnel into Oregon. They are on their way there now,” Newsom announced in an X post.

The governor added that the state will be challenging the deployment in court, calling it “authoritarian.”

Excerpt:

Syria held its first parliamentary election on Sunday, nearly a year after a surprise rebellion toppled longtime President Bashar al-Assad in December.

Security forces were deployed around polling stations nationwide. Electoral college members entered polling booths to fill our their ballots, which were then placed in a sealed box until they were pulled out and counted in front of candidates, journalists and observers from the Syrian bar association.

The election however did not feature a direct vote by Syrian citizens.

The new People’s Assembly features 210 seats, 40 less than under al-Assad. Members of the new assembly will also serve two-and-a-half year terms.

Incumbent President Ahmed al-Sharaa will appoint 70 members to the assembly, the remaining 140 will be voted on by subcommittees, overseen by 11-person Supreme Committees, who were appointed by al-Sharaa.

Officials say this election was not a direct vote as they lacked “reliable census data” after millions of people were displaced by 14-years of brutal civil war.

And I wish that it happened. And I would take it back if I could.” He didn’t begin his apology tour until he got caught.

Jones wants to be the top cop in Virginia who enforces the law in a nonpartisan manner, yet his personal beliefs are that people with whom he politically disagrees are worthy of “bullets” and so is their family. Apologies were not offered to the family he joked was deserving of murder until after the expose was published

It was revealed this week by National Review that Jones is a man who revels in politically motivated violence. In 2022, he sent texts to a colleague in which he joked about shooting former VA House Speaker Todd Gilbert.

Excerpt:

 

Ben Johnston, COO of small business lender Kapitus, said US businesses are grappling with tariffs that raise costs on imported goods, potentially making domestic manufacturing more competitive long term. But in the short term, those tariffs risk driving up inflation and disrupting global supply chains, threatening jobs across the manufacturing, wholesale, and retail sectors.

AI is also beginning to displace workers, especially in white-collar jobs. Companies are currently investing heavily in AI technologies that can analyze data and quickly make decisions that once could only be made by humans, Johnston said.

Companies are using AI to gather and analyze data from the web, internal systems, and third parties — tasks once done only by humans — mainly in white-collar roles like analytics and underwriting. And as robotics advance, AI could soon take on physical tasks in blue-collar jobs like driving, factory work, and even home healthcare, Johnston noted.

CAIR defends Muslims who graffitied Texas Church, claims it was protected speech | The Post Millennial– thepostmillennial.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

“We can and should condemn the vandalism of a house of worship without criminalizing speech.”

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has argued that prosecutors drop charges against three Muslims accused of vandalizing a Texas church, arguing the act was political expression protected by the First Amendment.

In 2024, three individuals were charged in connection with graffiti spray-painted on the wall of a non-denominational church in Euless, Texas. The act of vandalism was carried out after the church raised an Israeli flag following Hamas’ October 7, 2023, terrorist attack on Israel. The phrase “F*** Israel” was painted on the walls of the church along with pro-Palestinian stickers, all of which were captured on the church’s security cameras.

Three suspects, identified as Raqunaq Alam, Asfsheen Khan, and Julia Venzor, were initially charged with felony criminal mischief, but the charges were later increased to a third-degree felony hate crime because they targeted a church.

The White House has announced that it will be looking into the case of a child killer who was freed from prison after less than a decade in prison. Ronald Exantus, 42, stabbed an entire family in 2015, killing a 6-year-old boy. Today, he is walking free after being released 13 years early.

“I can confirm the White House is looking into this. It’s wholly unacceptable for a child killer to walk free after just several years in prison,” White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said on X in response to a video about the case.

Logan Tipton, 6, was repeatedly slashed in the head by Exantus on the night of December 7, 2015, after the intruder broke into their home. When Dean Tipton confronted the killer, he was stabbed and then tossed 10-15 feet by Exantus. The daughter in the family, Dakota, described the crimes.

“He stabbed me in the back. And then stomped on my head,” she said. “And I remember waking up across the room, not where I was at, and I looked and he was killing Logan and Logan was screaming.” Exantus was sentenced to 20 years in prison in 2018 on only assault charges as the jury found him not guilty of murder, citing insanity. On October 1, he was released on parole because of good behavior and educational credit.

Trump Says Israel Stopped Bombing Gaza To Give Peace Deal A ‘Chance To Be Completed’– dailycaller.com

President Donald Trump noted Israel has “temporarily stopped the bombing” to “give the Hostage release and Peace Deal a chance to be completed” in a Truth Social post Saturday.

Trump urged Israel to stop bombing Gaza on Friday as he gave Hamas an ultimatum to accept the terms of a peace deal by Sunday at 6 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. The terrorist group tentatively agreed to release the remaining hostages and relinquish power with certain conditions, though Trump urged Hamas Saturday to “move quickly” or “all bets will be off.”

“I appreciate that Israel has temporarily stopped the bombing in order to give the Hostage release and Peace Deal a chance to be completed,” Trump wrote. “Hamas must move quickly, or else all bets will be off. I will not tolerate delay, which many think will happen, or any outcome where Gaza poses a threat again. Let’s get this done, FAST. Everyone will be treated fairly!”

Hamas said there could be an agreement to relinquish its power and release the remaining hostages, though it also noted that other terms of the peace deal would need further discussion and to be in accordance with a “unanimous Palestinian stance,” multiple outlets reported Friday.

“If this LAST CHANCE agreement is not reached, all HELL, like no one has ever seen before, will break out against Hamas,” Trump wrote Friday.

The Times’ Reporting on Trump’s Circle Draws Accusations of Bias– dailycaller.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

The New York Times’ September 26 article on Steve Witkoff and his son Alex reads less like a work of investigative reporting and more like a hit job crafted to create smoke where no fire exists. Written by Debra Kamin with Bradley Hope, the story alleged that while Steve Witkoff served as a U.S. envoy in cease-fire talks, his son pitched a Gulf investment fund to sovereign wealth groups in Qatar and beyond. The framing suggested impropriety. The facts, however, did not.

Attorneys for the Witkoffs quickly filed a formal complaint to the Times standards editor, outlining what they called “severe violations” of the paper’s own ethical handbook. The letter documented how the story expanded allegations beyond what was presented to the family in advance, truncating denials and ignoring verifiable evidence about prior financings. One of the clearest examples was Kamin’s pre-publication inquiry, which mentioned Qatar and Saudi Arabia. The published piece, however, added the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait, nations never raised beforehand, and denied the Witkoffs the opportunity to respond.

The complaint also noted how the story misstated key facts: a $615 million Park Lane loan described as if Witkoff were personally on the hook (it was non-recourse debt), claims that he “escaped financially unscathed” while investors lost hundreds of millions, and financing described as Qatar-backed that was in reality an insurance vehicle unrelated to QIA. “This is not journalism,” the family’s attorney wrote, “it is the deliberate construction of a narrative in defiance of verifiable facts.”

Another high-ranking prosecutor in the Eastern District of Virginia has been fired.

Last month, President Trump fired Erik Siebert as the US Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia because he refused to bring charges against Letitia James, Comey, Schiff, and others.

Shortly after Siebert’s firing, Lindsey Halligan, the new Acting US Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, indicted former FBI Director James Comey. However, the night before Lindsey Halligan indicted Comey, Deep State prosecutors in the EDVA, leaked a memo in an effort to defend Comey. “Two sources familiar with the matter tell me prosecutors in the EDVA US attorney’s office presented newly sworn US attorney Lindsey Halligan with a memo explaining why charges should not be brought against James Comey, because there isn’t enough evidence to establish probable cause a crime was committed, let alone enough to convince a jury to convict him,” MSNBC’s Ken Dilanian said.

Of course, the memo, pressure, and leaks didn’t stop Lindsey Halligan from indicting James Comey.

Trump Should Start Raiding Antifa Terror Cells– thefederalist.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

Soon after the assassination of Charlie Kirk at the hands of a deranged leftist, President Donald Trump took the long-overdue step of designating Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization.

As part of that order, Trump declared, “All relevant executive departments and agencies shall utilize all applicable authorities to investigate, disrupt, and dismantle any and all illegal operations — especially those involving terrorist actions — conducted by Antifa.”

In a show of defiance against the new order, Antifa thugs assaulted a federal building in Eugene, Oregon, pounding on doors and harassing employees. Law enforcement dispersed the group and detained five of the besiegers. While the initial response was decisive, it was ultimately a reaction to an Antifa offensive, not a proactive measure against the organization.

The leftist media love to pretend that Antifa is just an “idea” that has no real structure, logistics, or national leadership, but the protests, riots, and attacks over the last few years have proven without a doubt that Antifa is both highly organized and coordinated. In the wake of the violent attacks on conservatives by left-wing radicals over the last month, it’s past time for the Trump administration to take decisive action and crush the Antifa cells embedded across the country.

The United States has dealt with mass left-wing violence before, perhaps most famously in the late 1960s and early ’70s when radical groups like the Weather Underground and the Black Liberation Army unleashed a wave of terror and murder. But many of the perpetrators of that violence ended up being rewarded for their wanton destruction and disregard for human life. Weather Underground co-founders Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn became distinguished professors and helped launch Barack Obama’s political career, while Assata Shakur, though she spent decades in exile in Cuba after her escape from prison, became a leftist icon in the same vein as Che Guevara.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) is expressing the belief that Republicans will cave to Democrats, attributing that prediction to “public sentiment.”

He didn’t mention, however, that it was the Democrats who shut down the government for political purposes.

“Public sentiment. At the end of the day, the public knows that Donald Trump and Republicans have shut the federal government down and that they’re continuing to engage in the chaos and the cruelty and the corruption that we’ve seen from this administration, from day one of the presidency,” Jeffries replied.

“Again, this is, this is the first week of their shutdown, but we’ve had months of chaos and cruelty unleashed on the American people, and the American people are paying close attention, and they know that it was Donald Trump and Republicans who have shut the government down,” he claimed, despite the fact that some Democrats have openly admitted that they shut down the government to fight for healthcare for illegal immigrants.

Federal Requirement for Proof of Citizenship to Vote Could Arrive– www.dailysignal.com

Election integrity advocates are pushing the U.S. Election Assistance Commission to require documented proof of citizenship for federal voter registration forms.

More than 15,700 people have made public comments, mostly in support of the rule. The public comment period closes on Oct. 20. America First Legal, a conservative government watchdog, filed the petition with the EAC in July.

“There have been important documented cases of noncitizens registered to vote and of noncitizens voting,” James Rogers, senior counsel to America First Legal, told The Daily Signal.

“Thousands have been taken off the voter rolls,” Rogers continued. “But some states don’t check. In most states it’s not a robust system, but an honor system or pinky swear. You check a box yes or no if you are a citizen. If someone were going to illegally vote, they wouldn’t think twice about lying on a form.”

The federal voter registration form is a baseline that states are required to have under the 1993 National Voter Registration Act, though most states also have their own registration forms. If adopted, the rule would apply to the federal form.

NBC reported:

The Supreme Court on Friday paved the way for the Trump administration to revoke temporary legal status for up to 600,000 Venezuelan immigrants, meaning some could ultimately be deported.

The court granted an emergency request filed by the Trump administration seeking to block a judge’s ruling that said Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem failed to follow the correct process in revoking Temporary Protected Status for Venezuelans.

The Supreme Court, which has a 6-3 conservative majority, in May granted an earlier emergency request filed by the Trump administration in the same case.

The latest filing came after California-based U.S. District Judge Edward Chen on Sept. 5 again ruled against the administration, this time in the form of a final decision rather than a preliminary one.
