The fight against euthanasia reached a new level yesterday, as Fox News published an article that blows the lid off the sinister nature of the industry.

Reporter Asra Nomani has just published an investigative report detailing the predatory-like behavior of what she calls “Assisted Suicide Inc.”

“A Fox Digital investigation reveals … opponents of euthanasia face a multimillion-dollar global lobby that could be called Assisted Suicide Inc., a sprawling network changing laws worldwide, developing euthanasia services for funeral parlors, selling ‘suicide pods,’ promoting ‘suicide tourism’ and even training ‘doulas for death,’” she writes.

Reflecting on her recent sentencing of over a year’s house arrest for her role in the 2022 Freedom Convoy, Tamara Lich laid bare the fact that when all is said in done seven years of her life will have been spent in a government-imposed “lockdown” in one form or another.

Last Friday on X, Lich wrote, “I did the math this morning.”

“Between the ‘pandemic,’ our bail conditions, and now our sentence, @ChrisBarber1975 and I will have been in lockdown, in one form or another, for a total of seven years by the time we complete our sentences,” she noted.

Last week as well, Lich launched what she called her “house arrest” podcast, with her fellow co-leader of the Freedom Convoy Chris Barber. The pair spent over an hour talking about their recent sentence, as well as the state of affairs in Canada.

In Ian Fleming’s 1959 James Bond novel Goldfinger, he wrote, “Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. The third time it’s enemy action.”

When it comes to NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, we’ve now got him linked to two anti-gay figures. Is that, as Fleming said, a coincidence? Or part of a larger pattern?

Two weeks ago, we learned that Mamdani is acquainted with Rebecca Kadaga, the Ugandan politician who supported legislation that would imprison gays in Uganda for life. Mamdani denied knowing Kadaga, but the New York Post revealed she’s got ties to his family, who own a massive compound in the African nation.

Now we’re learning Mamdani’s imam pal, Siraj Wahhaj, is also anti-gay.

Hamas has rejected disarmament and security control surrender under President Donald Trump’s 20-point peace plan, following the October 9, 2025, ceasefire in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, which ended two years of conflict and released the last Israeli hostages. Saudi Arabia, with UAE and Bahrain, warned the U.S. administration of withholding $50 billion in reconstruction aid if Hamas retains arms or power, criticizing Qatar and Turkey’s mediation for emboldening the group. Gulf states propose a neutral Western-led mission for demilitarization to ensure lasting stability.

Zohran Mamdani’s campaign for New York City mayor just hit another bump in the road, and this one might actually matter to Democratic voters. The socialist darling who’s been cruising toward what looks like a likely victory next month now finds himself tied to a second figure with a history of virulent anti-gay rhetoric.

While his terror-tied associations might not ruffle too many feathers among the city’s Democratic base, homophobia could be a different story entirely.

Earlier this month, the New York Post revealed that Mamdani “flashed a beaming smile in a cringeworthy photo with a top Ugandan official who pushed harsh anti-LGBT policies — that included life imprisonment for gay people.”

Uruguay, once a conservative pillar in Latin America, has crossed a tragic threshold. Its Senate has voted to legalize euthanasia, turning the nation’s medical profession into an instrument of state-sanctioned death. After eight years of debate and multiple legislative battles, the upper house approved the so-called “Dignified Death.” The law allows doctors to end the lives of patients who claim to suffer “unbearable pain” from incurable conditions.

Uruguay has abandoned life.

On October 15, 2025, Uruguay’s Senate voted 20 to 11 to legalize euthanasia. This followed a 64 to 29 vote by the Chamber of Representatives on August 13, 2025. With those two votes, Uruguay’s legislature handed doctors the legal authority to kill. The left-wing government of President Yamandú Orsi celebrates this as a milestone. They cheer it as progress. What they have approved is death, on demand, wrapped in official procedure and sold as compassion.

Supporters call it compassion, but it’s not. It’s surrender. They claim it protects choice, but it erases conscience. By declaring death a form of medical care, Uruguay has chosen elimination over treatment, and despair over dignity. This isn’t progress. It’s a complete moral collapse.

ICE agents arrested a Chicago area police officer Thursday, accusing him of living illegally in the United States for over a decade.

According to the Department of Homeland Security, Hanover Park Police Officer Radule Bojovic overstayed a B-2 tourist visa that required him to depart the U.S. on March 31, 2015. “Over a decade later, he was still illegally in the U.S.,” DHS stated in a press release. Hanover Park is a suburb of Chicago with a population of over 37,000 people.

The Passaic County Board of Elections is under fire — and possibly heading to court — after rejecting a push from local Republicans to beef up ballot security and speed up vote counting ahead of the November 4 general election.

The Passaic County Republican Organization had called for tighter oversight of ballots, including installing security cameras inside ballot storage rooms, setting up a two-party lock system to control access, and posting a sheriff’s officer on-site 24 hours a day for added protection.

GOP officials also demanded the county start opening and canvassing mail-in ballots five days before Election Day, a procedure they say is already being used successfully in other New Jersey counties.

President Donald Trump has worked ardently to bring an end to the war between Russia and Ukraine — a war that has resulted in millions of casualties and transformed much of Eastern Ukraine into drone-netted wasteland.

Fresh off brokering a tenuous ceasefire in Gaza and speaking with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Trump hosted Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at the White House on Friday.

‘They should stop where they are. Let both claim Victory, let History decide!’

At least 34 arrests, ranging from terroristic threats to assault, were made during what some are calling the “mostly peaceful” nationwide “No Kings” protests Saturday, reports say.

Millions of demonstrators filled the streets of major U.S. cities to protest President Donald Trump and his administration, according to multiple reports. Most of the violence broke out near Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facilities, a frequent target for left-wing unrest and threats since midsummer.

David Cox of New York was charged Friday night with making terroristic threats and threatening mass harm after allegedly telling a gas station employee he planned to firebomb ICE agents at the protest, ABC 7 News reported.

Local college ‘adult education manager’: ‘You gotta grab a gun! ICE agents gotta get shot and wiped out!’

There certainly was no shortage of … entertaining progressive activists at this past Saturday’s various “No Kings” rallies. However, two particular activists arguably went way overboard.

At a Chicago-area rally, elementary school teacher Lucy Martinez was caught on video mockingly making a gesture akin to being shot in the neck, mimicking how Charlie Kirk was assassinated. The Daily Mail reports Martinez’s antics ultimately led to Nathan Hale Elementary School shutting down its website and social media presence.

“These barbaric monsters who committed these crimes against innocent children should NEVER have been in our country in the first place.”

US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents on Monday arrested illegal immigrants throughout the country who they described as “worst of the worst.” These are men who have been convicted for sex crimes against children and other serious counts but have still been resiging in the US, despite their illegal status.

Among those arrested by ICE are Mariano Yanez-Conejo, of Mexico; Humberto Perez-Vasquez, of Guatemala; Jose Rigoberto Lopez-Aguilar, of El Salvador; Rafael Penaloza-Cabrera, of Mexico; and Jose Ortiz-Jacobo, of Mexico. Each of these have been convicted of vile behavior against children.

Democrats have sworn up and down for years that we didn’t need legislation like the SAVE Act to clean up our voter rolls. “It’s already against the law for illegal immigrants to vote,” they argued.

They also insisted illegal immigrants weren’t voting in elections.

But that thing that never happens happened again.

The Pennsylvania House Judiciary Committee votes on a package of six bills Wednesday that will make it possible for pregnant Pennsylvania women to kill their unborn babies up to birth. It will also turn Pennsylvania into an abortion tourism destination, allowing women from states with stronger pro-life rules to kill their babies in Pennsylvania with no legal entanglements.

Currently Pennsylvania bans abortion after 24 weeks (six months), though even then state law makes an exception “when the pregnancy poses a serious health risk or threatens the life” of the mother.

The main legislation is HB 1957, which aims to amend the Pennsylvania Constitution, making abortion a state constitutional right. HB 1957 would have to be approved by voters on a statewide ballot, and the committee hearing is the first step in that long process to amend the state constitution. First it must be approved in committee, then it moves to the House. The Pennsylvania House has a slight Democrat majority over Republicans, 102-101, so there is a good chance the constitutional amendment (and the entire six-bill package) will be approved by the committee and could pass the House.

A young man who filmed a video threatening ICE agents and then tried to lie his way out of it is about to learn the hard way that there are consequences.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, teenage-looking individuals went on TikTok last week. They decided to piggyback off reports of bounties that have been issued against ICE agents trying to enforce our immigration laws.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries apparently thinks taking a stand for federal employees and service members means calling a bill that does exactly that, a “political ploy.”

Senate Majority Leader John Thune placed the Shutdown Fairness Act on the calendar, and it should come up for a vote as the shutdown enters its fourth week. The measure would provide backpay and ongoing wages to military servicemembers and essential federal workers who have not been furloughed. Seems like something Democrats should jump on because they claim to support our troops and federal workers. But a reporter asked him whether he would encourage his Democratic colleagues to support the legislation, Jeffries dismissed the bill as inadequate.

“It’s my understanding that that is not a comprehensive bill that actually is designed to reopen the government, while at the same time, addressing the issues that need to be confronted on behalf of the American people, which include lowering the high cost of living and decisively addressing the Republican healthcare crisis,” Jeffries said. The minority leader’s response signals that Democrats remain dug in on their demands for a broader package that includes extensions of Affordable Care Act tax credits, which are set to expire at the end of the year.

The flyer concluded, “should we fail to observe the aforementioned demands within the allotted time, the disorder will be without parallel in modern times.”

During the No Kings protest in Ann Arbor, Michigan, a flyer was passed out that included demands such as dismantling ICE and the Supreme Court. The flyer stated that if the demands are not met, “disorder will be without parallel in modern times.”

The flyer stated at the top in all caps, “everything comes to a head. We draw up the terms. We arrange the time and the date. Your people. And our people. We have demands. In no uncertain terms, the following conditions must be met, or hostilities will continue, and they will escalate.”

Former FBI Director James Comey, whose visceral hatred of President Donald Trump remains palpable, now has the unmitigated gall to ask a federal judge to dismiss the Justice Department’s case against him because of, as his legal team claims, “vindictiveness” and Trump’s “personal animus” against him.

Comey was indicted on September 25 on charges of making a false statement and obstruction of Congress. Specifically, the charges are for allegedly lying to Congress during a 2020 Senate hearing focused on the FBI’s investigation into the 2016 Trump campaign’s contacts with Russia.

Pretty rich, huh? Comey’s personal animus against Trump is legendary. During his legal pursuit of the president, the disgraced former FBI head took lawfare to a whole new level.

House Majority Leader Steve Scalise put Sen. Jon Ossoff on blast at a press conference Tuesday, accusing him and fellow Senate Democrats of refusing to reopen the government as a campaign fundraising tool and out of fear of their base of support.

“It truly is fear, fear of their own party’s base that has driven the Democrats, especially in the Senate, to shut down the government,” Scalise, R-La., told reporters. “It’s a calculated decision, and the continued votes, including yesterday, to keep the government shut down, has been a direct result of the fear Democrats continue to have of their own party’s base.”

In Boulder, Colorado, women can abort their child into the third trimester of pregnancy.

RISE Collective, an abortion clinic, opened its doors in October and is offering late-term abortions up to 34 weeks’ gestation, just six weeks shy of the average delivery time.

“At RISE Collective, we believe that any reason you have for needing abortion care is yours—and it is the right one,” the facility’s promotional video states.

RISE, standing for Reproductive Health, Inclusive Care, Support, and Empowerment, opens after abortionist and founder of Boulder Abortion Clinic Dr. Warren Hern retired earlier this year. The late-term abortion clinic operated for more than 50 years before closing its doors. Now, former Boulder Abortion Clinic staff work at RISE Collective.

No Kings protesters in Broadview, Illinois, were seen over the weekend celebrating a child smacking and stabbing a piñata depicting President Donald Trump — a move Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) said is how “assassination culture takes root.”

The protesters were outside of an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in Broadview. According to reports, a man offered a stick to protesters to bash the piñata.

“Sir, do you want to swing?” he asked, trying to find someone in the crowd willing to hit the figurine.

Finally, a child took the stick and can be seen in the video smacking and stabbing the Trump piñata.

FIRST ON THE DAILY SIGNAL—Every day the Democrat government shutdown drags on, it becomes more difficult for President Donald Trump’s Environmental Protection Agency to maintain certain critical operations, a spokesperson told The Daily Signal.

“The Trump EPA is committed to protecting the environment and ensuring America has the cleanest air, land, and water in the world while growing our economy, but Democrats are content to allow our funding to run out,” a spokesperson said. “They are preventing us from securing funding needed to continue these important programs and impeding our ability to deliver clean air, land, and water for Americans.”

While the Dems are out there pretending that the shutdown has everything to do with Republicans and nothing to do with them, the evidence speaks loud and clear. This is why Speaker Mike Johnson said what everyone already knows to be true.

According to Johnson, the Dems are terrified of their “radical base,” which is why they are keeping the government shut down. That tells you all you need to know about the left’s priorities — which is that they don’t intend to represent you.

The reason the government is shut down is that they are demanding free healthcare for illegal aliens — despite their claims otherwise. So, if they are horrified at upsetting people, it would go without saying that the radical base they are beholden to might not be what you would call a “legal citizen.”

According to NJ Media:

Johnson opened the news conference just after 10 a.m. Tuesday, saying the U.S. is now in “Day 21 of the Democrat shutdown.”

“It’s now three weeks since the Democrats decided to shut down the federal government,” Johnson said. “And yet again, Senate Democrats voted to prolong the pain and keep the government closed.

“So far what this shutdown has caused to the people of this country is really unconscionable and the U.S. economy has now lost hundreds of billions of dollars. We have federal workers who are desperate for pay and uncertain the they will get their next paycheck.”

In my Oct. 2 article for The Federalist, I detailed a chilling 2,500 percent spike in indexed internet content pairing “Trump” with “fascist” over the past 10 years, with the biggest surge happening since mid-2024. This spike in dangerous rhetoric is evidence of a left-wing effort to dehumanize conservatives as existential threats.

From Hillary Clinton likening Trump’s rallies to Nazi gatherings to Kamala Harris branding him a “fascist” threat to democracy, the language has poisoned discourse and, as we’ve seen, inspired real-world harm — including assassination attempts on Trump and the recent murder of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk by a radical immersed in anti-Trump echo chambers.

The trend of the late night hosts devolving from comedians into DNC talking heads continued on Monday as they gushed over the weekend’s No Kings protestors. According to them, the size of the crowds should discredit the idea they were actually quite radical.

On The Late Show, CBS’s Stephen Colbert excitedly wondered, “Do you feel that? Do you feel the vibe? It’s electric in here. You can feel the energy in this room because these folks are still high from the No Kings rally this weekend. That was beautiful! It’s a beautiful sight to see. On Saturday, 7 million people turned out in over 2,700 events in all 50 states.”

  • Missouri Senator Eric Schmitt criticized elite universities for using the H-1B visa program to hire staff for their Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) offices, arguing that these positions do not meet the criteria of ‘specialty occupations’ meant to fill skills gaps in the American workforce.
  • Prominent universities like Dartmouth, Carnegie Mellon, and Yale have applied for H-1B visas for various DEI roles, raising concerns about the appropriateness of such hires under the visa’s intended purpose.
  • Experts, including National Association of Scholars’ editor Jared Gould, supported Schmitt’s view by stating that DEI roles are bureaucratic and not technical, and should not qualify for H-1B visas, which are intended for high-skill occupations.
