With the ascension of newly minted Gov. Abigail Spanberger, Democrats in the Virginia Legislature have lost no time in introducing a bill that, if enacted, would officially codify racism in the Old Dominion.

These legislators must have missed the day in school when we learned about the Civil War.

In any event, for those who may not be “in the know” when it comes to government contracting, governments consume goods and services, just as any other firm or institution does. This includes the relatively simple services like landscaping or janitorial needs, to the more specialized, like IT hardware and cybersecurity consulting.

Washington bill would require universities to provide abortion pills

Washington could soon join a handful of states that require public colleges and universities to offer abortion pills on campus.

Lawmakers in the state House listened to testimonies for and against Senate Bill 5826 during a hearing Thursday, The News Tribune reports.

An illegal alien and suspected human smuggler allegedly used his vehicle as a weapon while fleeing from federal immigration agents in southern California.

William Eduardo Moran Carballo, a Salvadoran national with a lengthy rap sheet who has been living unlawfully in the United States, rammed his vehicle into Customs and Border Protection agents during an operation Wednesday morning in Compton, California, according to the Department of Homeland Security.

The incident marks just the latest example of criminals weaponizing their vehicles against federal law enforcement.

Police have yet to identify the pro-Palestinian vandals who caused $7K worth of damage to the home of University of Washington’s former president, according to police reports obtained by The College Fix through a public records request.

The Fix recently obtained the police report and notes for Seattle’s investigation into the November 14, 2024 attack on Ana Mari Cauce’s home and car. This attack followed a similar pro-Palestinian vandalism at the university’s mansion, which is available for use by the school’s president on October 28, 2024.  Cauce retired last summer.

The vandals spray painted the front of her house and her car, then slashed three of her tires. They left messages including “FREE PALESTINE” and “ANA MARI COMPLICIT IN GENOCIDE,” among other pro-Palestinian messages,” The Fix previously reported.

“The movement will continue to apply pressure to Ana Mari until UW cuts ties with war profiteers such as Boeing, and divests from the Zionist entity,” one message also stated, referring to Israel. President Cauce supported a ceasefire in Gaza but opposed Israeli divestment, according to Fox 13.

If you need any more evidence as to why the work our ICE and Border Patrol heroes are doing is so important, here it is.

A 26-year-old illegal alien has been arrested in Bulloch County, Georgia for raping an 11-year-old girl in front of her 10-year-old sister.

Kenneth Moreno Guzman allegedly broke into the family’s mobile home at night, then held the two young children at knife-point while he raped the older sister.

Sadly, we’re seeing a lot of reports about ICE and border patrol agents being denied service at places like Minneapolis Hilton Hotel locations – ostensibly over “public safety concerns,” as RedState previously reported.

There’s even one report from independent journalist Cam Higby about a Speedway gas station in Minnesota, where Border Patrol Commander at Large Greg Bovino was allegedly denied service by a man claiming to be a gas station attendant. As of this writing, Speedway has not confirmed if the man was or is an actual employee. But the video shows the scene very active with triggered anti-ICE agitators, and the man was seen trailing Bovino with a cellphone camera in hand in front of the store and near the gas pumps.

Hotels and gas stations are one thing. But hospitals, too? That’s a claim that has surfaced related to an incident in New York involving NYPD detectives who reportedly went to a Brooklyn hospital after one of them sustained an injury while trying to apprehend a suspect.

A federal judge has shut down an effort by two anti-Trump House lawmakers to force the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) to immediately release all remaining files related to Jeffrey Epstein, ruling that the court lacks jurisdiction to intervene.

On Wednesday, U.S. District Judge Paul Engelmayer issued a seven-page decision rejecting a request from Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) and Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) to participate in the closed criminal case of Ghislaine Maxwell as amici curiae, or “friends of the court.”

Khanna and Massie had asked Engelmayer to appoint a special master to oversee the DOJ’s compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act (EFTA), a law they authored and that was signed by President Donald Trump last year.

In his final hours as New Jersey governor, Democrat Phil Murphy issued 97 pardons and 51 commutations.

Among Murphy’s more controversial recipients of clemency was Harris Jacobs, the killer son of Democratic fundraiser and Atlantic City powerbroker Joe Jacobs. Jacobs is a friend of Murphy who raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for the failed 2024 Senate campaign of the then-governor’s wife, Tammy Murphy.

‘When politics pervades justice, the rule of law becomes subordinate to influence and power.’

Orlando Fraga — a Cuban who moved to the United States in 1980 in pursuit of a better life — was fatally struck by a vehicle when walking along Atlantic Avenue on Sept. 4, 2022.

Well, as expected when the progressive Democrats took full control of Richmond, they quickly passed legislation last week that will place an unlimited abortion clause in the Virginia Constitution.

The Constitutional Amendment on abortion will now go to a statewide vote in November and if passed, Virginia would join states like New York, California and Vermont where their extreme abortion laws are enshrined in their constitutions.

Planned Parenthood and other left-wing, pro-abortion groups will now spend millions to influence voters in Virginia to support this drastic change to our constitution. We Must Fight Back!

Israeli historian Yuval Noah Harari couched a chilling prediction within a warning at the World Economic Forum (WEF) meeting in Davos, Switzerland: Artificial Intelligence (AI) will soon control not only most of the world’s legal, education, and healthcare systems, “AI will take over religion.” 

“This is particularly true of religions based on books, like Islam, Christianity, and Judaism,” the homosexual atheist claimed.  

“Anything made of words will be taken over by AI,” said Harari, so, “What happens to a religion of the book when the greatest expert on the holy book is an AI?”

Washington could soon join a handful of states that require public colleges and universities to offer abortion pills on campus.

Lawmakers in the state House listened to testimonies for and against Senate Bill 5826 during a hearing Thursday, The News Tribune reports.

The bill, sponsored by state Sen. T’wina Nobles, D-Fircrest, would require higher education institutions with a health center to offer abortion pills on campus. Institutions without a health center would be required to provide referrals to abortion facilities.

All public colleges and universities also would be required to create a webpage with information about abortion, prenatal care, and other “reproductive health” services.

Rep. John James, a Michigan Republican running for governor, has launched a new ad tying the fate of Trump’s second term and the America First agenda to James’ home state of Michigan.

On Thursday, James released an ad titled “Impeached,” claiming that Michigan, with its open U.S. Senate seat and four competitive House races, is “ground zero” in the fight to keep Congress under Republican control.

Recent polling indicates that James holds a commanding lead in the Republican primary and a slight edge in the general election in November.

The ad suggests that if Congress falls into the hands of the Democrats after the 2026 midterms, Trump will be “impeached” and his “Cabinet dragged before hearings led by AOC and Rashida Tlaib,” referring to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and Rep. Tlaib (D-Mich.).

In the ad, James, currently a Michigan congressman who has “backed President Trump every time,” makes the pitch to MAGA Michiganders that his election to be their next governor is vital to protecting Trump and his ability to continue implementing his policies: “If you care about President Trump, you must stand up for John James.”

Republicans are bleeding support among independent voters ahead of November’s midterm elections, according to new polling.

An Emerson College Polling national survey released Thursday found that congressional Democrats have a 22-point advantage over Republicans (50% to 28%) with independent voters. With roughly 90% of likely Republican and Democratic voters planning to support their party’s respective congressional candidates in 2026, according to Emerson College Polling executive director Spencer Kimball, independents are likely to have outsized influence over November’s elections.

The more you pull the thread on the chaos and corruption currently overtaking Minnesota, the more you see clearly the ways that the Democrat Party is both the beast and the feeder of the beast.

Take, for instance, Jamael Lundy. Lundy is a top aide to Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty; he serves as her intergovernmental affairs coordinator, which means his job is to interact with local, state, and federal officials. Lundy also runs a company called, “Homes for Homies Property Management LLC,” which claims to “provid[e] affordable housing for those struggling with credit and criminal backgrounds.”

Oh, and Lundy is married to St. Paul City Council member Anika Bowie. He’s got the perfect progressive resume, including stints with Minnesota House Rep. Carlos Mariani (D), the Democrat House Caucus Campaign, Democrat Rep. Betty McCollum (MN-04), and the state teachers’ union.

Khamenei today: “We broke the back of the rioters. The day of the successful crackdown will be remembered as a day of celebration for years to come.”

He has become so emboldened that he is shamelessly calling the massacre of tens of thousands of Iranians a “celebration.”

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is speaking like a man who believes he has won. As nationwide protests subside and U.S. threats go unenforced, Iran’s supreme leader has openly branded the mass killing of protesters a “celebration,” boasting that the regime “broke the back of the rioters.” His rhetoric reflects an emboldened regime claiming victory, shifting blame for its own atrocities onto the United States, and signaling to Iranians—and the world—that terror, not restraint, remains the Islamic Republic’s chosen instrument of rule.

A psychotherapist has explained Donald Trump’s recent controversial actions are driven by his need for stimulation, visibility and control of narrative rather than institutional restraint

A psychotherapist has exposed the grim motivation behind Donald Trump’s series of erratic actions throughout his presidency.

In recent weeks, he’s said Norway are responsible for him not winning the Nobel Peace Prize, overseen a major US military operation capturing Venezuela’s president, and unveiled proposals for a government-enforced ban preventing college football matches clashing with the annual Army-Navy fixture.

“I have a responsibility, not only as a journalist but as an American, to tell the truth, and to abide by the promises of the Constitution,” said then-CNN prime-time anchor Don Lemon on his responsibilities as a journalist.

“If you’re going to be in the business of news and telling people the truth, you’ve got to be honest. You’ve got to have the same rules for yourself as you do for everyone else,” Lemon also once said.

“I don’t consider myself a celebrity. I’m just a journalist,” is another great Lemon line.

STRASBOURG, France: EU chief Ursula von der Leyen warned on Wednesday (Jan 21) that the 27-nation bloc must move faster to boost its economy and defences, faced with a new world order defined by “raw power”.

Addressing the European Parliament, von der Leyen said Europe had to toughen up to influence the world around it – while warning the United States that strife between “allies” over Greenland would only embolden rivals of the West.

“The shift in the international order is not only seismic, but it is permanent,” she told lawmakers, citing the “volatile situation” around Greenland, but also Russia’s relentless bombing of Ukraine and tensions from the Middle East to the Indo-Pacific.

Breitbart News senior contributor and author of The Invisible Coup: How American Elites and Foreign Powers Use Immigration as a Weapon Peter Schweizer talked about China on FNC’s “The Ingraham Angle” on Tuesday.

Schweizer said, “They have effectively bought off large portions of America’s elites … the problem is that these elites are either overlooking or ignoring the central fact of the U.S.-China relationship which is, China’s goal … is not about getting a better deal or maybe capturing a larger share of the market. Sure they want that, and they want the political leverage over the United States. What they really are engaging in is civilizational warfare.”

The total number of people who have been poisoned to death by euthanasia has increased by almost 48% since 2022, the first full year after its legalization.Euthanasia was legalized in Spain in March 2021. Euthanasia is an act whereby a person who is deemed eligible is intentionally poisoned to death by a medical practitioner.

The White House notified reporters that Donald Trump would be speaking at the press briefing to discuss his accomplishments during the first year of his second administration.

Any other president might have issued a statement or gathered reporters for a press conference. Trump spent nearly two hours torturing the world with his broken and depleted mind.

This is a sample of what Trump showed the world as he read from a book to reporters and held up made up wanted posters of immigrants:

These are rough characters. These are all criminal, illegal aliens. Set. In many cases, they’re murderers, they’re drug lords, drug dealers. They’re the mentally insane. There’s some of them who are brutal killers. They’re mentally insane. They’re killers, but they’re insane. These are just in Minnesota and California.

It’s worse. In other states it’s worse. No, Minnesota, the crime is incredible. The financial crimes are incredible. And the problem is because of the agitators and insurrectionists, whatever you want, troublemakers, but they’re paid agitators and insurrectionists. Nobody talks about the fact that $19 billion at a minimum is missing in Minnesota, given to a large degree by Somalians.

Former Attorney General Eric Holder spoke at the National Action Network event for Martin Luther King Jr. Day on Monday and said that there is a concerted effort to re-segregate America.

In a move that is not a shock to anyone except for those who were psyopped into believing Gov. Abigail Spanberger, D-Va., was a “moderate,” Democrats are poised to make life a little easier for rapists and murderers.

Spanberger was sworn into office on Saturday, and radical Democrats control both houses of Virginia’s General Assembly. Legislative proposals have been streaming in, many of which aim to ban guns, rig elections, disenfranchise Virginians, kill unborn babies, and tax just about everything under the sun.

Humans are using more water than Earth can support, with many water sources already damaged beyond repair, a report from the United Nations found

Humans use more water than the planet can support, entering an era of “global water bankruptcy,” a new report from the United Nations warns. Almost 75 percent of the world’s population now lives in countries that are experiencing significant water insecurity, according to the report.

Rivers, lakes, wetlands and other water sources are already “damaged beyond realistic prospects of full recovery,” the report states.

The report compares the situation to a bank account going into the red: humans are using more water than our planet can produce and using more water that is stored in sources such as glaciers, wetlands and aquifers.

I really do try to write about other issues. But the awfulness keeps on coming.

Yesterday, I called attention to the Canadian bioethicist who claimed that lethal jabs are no different than hip replacements. Today, I came across an awful story out of Australia in which Tony Lewis, age 71 and experiencing Motor Neurone Disease — what we call ALS or Lou Gehrig’s disease — has asked for euthanasia because he was denied sufficient financial support for his disability. From the Hello Care report:

A Queensland man with Motor Neurone Disease has chosen to access voluntary assisted dying after being denied support through the National Disability Insurance Scheme because of his age, reigniting concerns about Australia’s two-tier approach to disability and aged care.

Tony Lewis is 71. Diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease last year, he falls outside the eligibility criteria for the NDIS, which excludes people diagnosed after the age of 65. Instead, he must rely on the aged care system, where funding levels and response times are widely acknowledged as inadequate for fast progressing neurological conditions.

The videos coming out of Minneapolis, of Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers apprehending illegal immigrants in the streets while having to fight off aggressive and sometimes violent anti-ICE activists, are the predictable result of a Democrat strategy that amounts to nullification.

I mean nullification in the historical sense, like the Nullification Crisis of 1832 when South Carolina declared federal tariffs to be null and void within the boundaries of the state, and President Andrew Jackson threatened to send in the U.S. Army to enforce federal law.
