When asked about the allegations laid forth in the documents released, Gates said they weren’t true.
Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has spoken out after the Department of Justice released a massive number of documents in the case of disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein, in which Epstein claimed that Gates had wanted to get antibiotics to give to his then-wife without her noticing, and that Gates had allegedly gotten STDs from “Russian girls.”
The occupation comes days after anti-Israel and Antifa activists were allowed back on campus after causing over $1 million in damage to a brand new engineering building during another occupation.
Hundreds of anti-ICE protesters occupied Gerberding Hall at the University of Washington on Friday, just days after anti-Israel and Antifa activists were allowed back on campus for the first time since a suspension nine months ago for causing over $1 million in damage to a brand new engineering building during a violent occupation.
Democrat Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) is facing sharp criticism after appearing to suggest that Americans could be justified in shooting masked U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents during enforcement operations.
Nadler made the remarks during a House Judiciary Committee hearing, according to The New York Post.
The anti-Trump lawmaker was condemning federal immigration enforcement and describing ICE officers as “masked hoodlums.”
“What is really the major problem in this country today is the fascism in our streets,” Nadler said.
The dramatic family story Maryland Gov. Wes Moore often tells on the campaign trail has helped power his rise as a national Democratic figure. But according to reporting by Andrew Kerr of the Washington Free Beacon, the tale does not hold up against historical records.
Moore, widely viewed as a potential 2028 Democratic presidential candidate, frequently recounts how his grandfather fled South Carolina as a child in the 1920s after the Ku Klux Klan targeted the family. Moore says his great-grandfather, a Black minister, enraged the Klan with sermons condemning racism, forcing the family to escape Charleston in the dead of night to avoid a lynching before resettling in Jamaica.
It is a gripping narrative Moore has repeated for years, including during his successful 2022 run for governor. He first told the story in a 2014 memoir and has since framed it as a defining example of American injustice and perseverance.
Students on the left have actually gotten worse since the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
The College Fix reports:
Ohio U. TPUSA students face gun threat, harassment during tabling event
Ohio University’s Turning Point USA chapter experienced threats and harassment on Monday, both online and on campus, during a tabling event.
“We set up a table outside of the Baker Student Center on campus and had the intention of having a successful activism event,” a chapter member said, according to TPUSA HQ.
“We had numerous hostile encounters, including people yelling at us from cars, mocking Charlie getting shot in the neck while walking by, people stating that ‘Charlie had it coming,’ etc.,” the student said.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced that there have been a horrifying 182 vehicular assaults on federal immigration officers since Donald Trump took office on Jan. 20, 2025.
The DOJ and multiple states have filed notices to appeal a federal court ruling in the Google Search antitrust case that imposed limited restrictions on the internet giant’s conquest of the search and AI market. The verdict was so friendly to Google that one analyst called it “a home run for the status quo.”
Bloomberg reports that the DOJ and a coalition of states announced Tuesday they will appeal a September 2025 federal court decision that is widely considered to be the best case scenario for Big Tech following a landmark antitrust case. The appeal targets a ruling by US District Judge Amit Mehta that allowed the tech giant to avoid major structural changes despite being found guilty of operating an illegal monopoly in the search market.
A bombshell undercover recording has exposed what critics are calling a deliberate federal cover-up of massive Somali daycare fraud in Minnesota, with an FBI agent admitting that no one will ever be arrested despite billions in taxpayer dollars being looted.
On Tuesday, the O’Keefe Media Group (OMG) released undercover footage showing FBI agent Justin Devine telling a covert reporter that investigations into Somali-run daycare fraud schemes in Minnesota will quietly die without charges.
“I don’t think anybody [daycare fraud criminals] would ever go to prison,” Devine said, referring directly to investigative reporting by independent journalist Nick Shirley, whose work has exposed widespread fraud across Minneapolis.
I’ve got bad news for conservative readers: The Democrats have every meaningful advantage for the 2026 midterms. According to the betting markets, there’s nearly an 80% probability the Dems will win control of the House of Representatives.
And honestly? That number is too low. (I’m guessing there’s a percentage of conservative gamblers who’re betting with their hearts, not their heads.)
It’ll probably hit the mid-90s by Sept.
Which means, the GOP would be wise to expedite its legislation ASAP and then pull up the ladder well before the end of the term, because once the Dems control the House, the gig is up. That’s the end of President Donald Trump’s legislative legacy.
And his final two years as president will be spent dodging subpoenas, battling with congressional committees, and being impeached (probably more than once). Get ready for two long years of government shutdowns and grandstanding gridlock.
The Dems aren’t even being coy about what they’re planning. This NBC News story ran yesterday evening:
Facing the threat of being held in contempt of Congress, Bill and Hillary Clinton agreed Tuesday to testify before the House Oversight Committee about convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Democrats now say Republicans have established a precedent when it co
Border czar Tom Homan has announced that the Trump administration will immediately reduce the number of federal immigration agents in Minnesota by roughly 26%, citing “unprecedented cooperation” from local officials.
Homan held a press conference in Minneapolis on Wednesday morning to provide an update on Operation Metro Surge, which has been met with unrest from some community members, leading to numerous anti-immigration enforcement protests.
A Portland mother is going viral on social media after she admitted she would rather commit a murder-suicide with her and her kids than have them taken into custody by ICE.
According to Taviquinn, “If it comes down to me taking out myself and my kids versus us being taken and harmed by ICE, death would be easier out.”
According to Right Angle News Network, CPS has been notified of the situation.
There are so many disturbing things about this video.
Firstly, we can almost be certain that she and her kids are American citizens. This means she truly believes ICE is targeting random Americans and “kidnapping” them off the street. She’s not only naive, but she’s delusional enough to believe those lies.
Las Vegas Police and the FBI raided a illegal Chinese biological lab running out of a Las Vegas home on January 31, collecting more than 1,000 samples. Several people allegedly became sick after being exposed to the laboratory in the home’s garage, 8 News Now reported.
“Initial search of the residence on Sugar Springs identified a bio-safety hood, a bio-safety sticker, a centrifuge, multiple refrigerators, red-brown unknown liquids in gallon-sized containers and refrigerated vials with unknown liquids,” said Christopher Delzotto, FBI Special Agent in Charge at the Las Vegas office.
On Monday, the samples were reportedly loaded onto an FBI aircraft to be transported to the National Bioforensic Analysis Center in Maryland for testing.
When the left gets called out for their nonsense, they always seem to resort to the same insult: racism. It does not matter who is asking the question or the fact that it has nothing to do with race; if they can’t answer it, they have no choice but to resort to insults. This is why Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott accused a reporter of being racist after he questioned why his taxpayer-funded SUV cost $163,495.
You don’t need to be a car enthusiast to know that the average cost of an SUV is nowhere near that price. This is why it’s more than sensible to ask why so much funds were spent on a car.
According to Fox 5:
Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott’s taxpayer-funded SUV is the most expensive executive vehicle in Maryland, outpacing every other top elected leader by tens of thousands of dollars, according to records obtained by Spotlight on Maryland.
The Democrats keep doubling down on their inflammatory anti-ICE rhetoric, repeatedly calling the men and women tasked with enforcing our duly-enacted laws the Gestapo and Nazis. They do this to gin up anger among their base, which leads to the insanity we see in Minneapolis.
Police raided a house in northeast Las Vegas on Saturday managed by Ori Solomon, an Israeli national currently in the U.S. on an E-2 visa, and owned by Jia Bei Zhu, the criminally charged Chinese national linked to a secret biolab discovered in Reedley, California, in late 2022.
Inside Zhu’s Vegas property on Sugar Springs Drive, law enforcement agents found a “possible biological laboratory” complete with a “bio-safety hood, a bio-safety sticker, a centrifuge, multiple refrigerators, red-brown unknown liquids in gallon-sized containers, and refrigerated vials with unknown liquids,” according to Christopher Delzotto, FBI special agent in charge at the bureau’s Las Vegas office.
Today, the Nebraska Legislature failed to advance LB 669 by two votes after pro-choice senators filibustered the bill and blocked common-sense protections for women facing trafficking and forced abortions.
LB 669, introduced by Senator Tanya Storer and prioritized by Senator Dan Lonowski, sought to strengthen Nebraska’s informed consent laws by requiring abortion providers to screen for coercion, domestic violence, and human trafficking before performing an abortion. The legislation also ensured women were informed of available resources, provided access to national hotlines, and given an opportunity to make a confidential phone call, if they choose.
Fulton County officials filed a motion in a Georgia court to reclaim election records seized by federal agents in January at a Georgia election office.
The motion filed by county officials under seal in a federal court in Georgia on Wednesday seeks the return of the election records taken by agents at a warehouse in Fulton County, according to The Washington Post.

The Washington Post announced on Wednesday that it is laying off hundreds of its employees, which marks one of the newspaper’s deepest workforce cuts in its history.
This development is part of a broader trend as legacy media outlets are rapidly losing viewers and readers.
From CNN:
Executive Editor Matt Murray and human resources chief Wayne Connell sent an email to staffers Wednesday morning instructing employees to “stay home today” but attend an 8:30 a.m. ET meeting via Zoom during which the Washington Post’s leadership will announce “significant actions across the company.”
Those actions include shutting down almost the entire Sports section, closing the Books section and cancelling the daily Post Reports podcast, sources at the newspaper said.
One of the most severe cuts comes in the form of a “restructuring” of the Post’s Metro desk, which covers D.C., Maryland and Virginia.
FIRST ON THE DAILY SIGNAL—Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will celebrate one year of the Make America Healthy Again movement in a speech on Monday.
The event, hosted by The Heritage Foundation and MAHA Action, “will highlight key actions taken during his first year, reflect on lessons learned in rebuilding public trust, and look ahead to remaining priorities.”
Kennedy and Heritage President Kevin Roberts will have a conversation followed by a “panel of leaders engaged in restoring American wellness across policy, legal action, and coalition building.”
I’m having a hard time wrapping my head around the opposition to programs that recognize bright, eager-to-learn kids and place them in special classes where they can excel and achieve great things.
Yes, the opposition is based on the fact that more white and Asian kids qualify for the special instruction than black kids, but instead of penalizing the “special” kids, why not work harder to uplift the black kids? It appears to me that no one in school districts that cite “white privilege” for why fewer black kids end up in these accelerated classes ever comes up with ideas to raise black kids up instead of holding other kids back.
Probably too much work.
New York’s Democratic Socialist Party Mayor Zohran Mamdani thinks that these special programs that elevate some kids over others based on talent and gifts are an abomination and need to end. Catering to the lowest common denominator in education, the workplace, and government is how socialists keep everything nice and equal — equally mediocre, at least.
(The Washington Stand) — In progressive America, the Democratic Party’s litmus test for public service is transgender ideology. And not just casual support, nor a general affirmation of “LGBTQ+ rights.” Those who wish to participate in the system must embrace every last jot and tittle of the transgender agenda, specifically.
For those who prefer to side with the truth, even members of other favored minority groups had better look out, lest the door hit them on the way out.
The latest casualty to this ideological intolerance is Glenna Goldis, a lawyer in the New York attorney general’s office, who was fired in late January for telling the truth about the lack of evidence for carrying out gender transition procedures on minors.
The Canadian government-run euthanasia system has crossed another chilling threshold after Canada’s socialized healthcare system euthanized a disabled man because he was experiencing “loneliness.”
A disabled man in his 60s was put to death under Canada’s expanding Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) regime after citing loneliness and social isolation as the primary reasons for wanting to die.
The alarming case was revealed in a 2025 report from Ontario’s MAiD Death Review Committee (OMDRC).
The man, identified only as Mr. B, lived with cerebral palsy and used a wheelchair.
Car ownership used to come with an unspoken assumption: You bought the vehicle, and it was yours to maintain, repair, and service in any way you saw fit. That assumption is quietly eroding. And one of the clearest signs doesn’t involve software updates or subscription features.
It involves a screw.
Tasks once considered routine — such as clearing fault codes or accessing safety systems — now often require dealer-level credentials or paid subscriptions.
America, glimpse your future. If we continue down the path of islamization as the UK and Europe, this is the inevitability. Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Zohran Mamdani … this is next. Nothing is static, everything is fluid. It’s advances and this direction leads only one way – to hell.
In Birmingham, a convicted terrorist with a documented history of jihadist violence, criminality, and incendiary Islamist rhetoric is now standing for local office, presenting himself as a “unifier.” Shahid Butt, jailed for his role in an armed terror plot and openly advocating violence, religious segregation, and confrontation with “disbelievers,” is being normalized as a legitimate political actor. This is what a fading civilization looks like: one afraid to name its enemies, willing to rebrand extremism as activism, and mistaking intimidation for representation. Nothing is static; everything moves. And when societies refuse to draw lines, the direction of travel is unmistakable—and downward.
Protests over two immigration enforcement-involved shootings have highlighted the agitators organizing against federal agents on the ground in Minnesota, and the organization Comunidades Organizando el Poder y la Accíon Latina, or COPAL Education Fund, is a major player.
COPAL describes itself as a group that works “to improve the quality of life of Latine families.” It also hosts a hotline for people to call when spotting Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents at work. The group also set up the Immigrant Defense Network, which trains “legal observers” to watch and report ICE.
The Department of Justice made about 3 million pages worth of documents relating to sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein available on Friday.
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said that the latest tranche of documents was winnowed from about 6 million due to personally identifying information of victims, medical files, child pornography images, and any images showing death or abuse, according to ABC News.
The documents released under the Epstein Files Transparency Act include 2,000 videos and 180,000 images.
“We comply with the act, and there is no ‘protect President Trump.’ We didn’t protect or not protect anybody,” Blanche said.
The inevitability of a Hamas-supporting mayor…..
Dan Sohail repeatedly rammed his vehicle into the entrance of Chabad Lubavitch World Headquarters on 770 Eastern Parkway in Brooklyn, New York. He almly exited his vehicle before being arrested.
The U.S. Department of Education found the California Department of Education (CDE) in violation of federal family rights law on Wednesday for facilitating the gender “transition” of children and hiding it from their parents.
California pressured school districts across the state to violate the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), a student privacy and parental rights law, by forcing them to conceal student records from parents about their child’s so-called “gender transition,” according to a senior department official detailing the results of an investigation Wednesday.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) says Democrats are ready to defeat a Republican bill intended to fortify election security against fraudulent voting.
The Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act passed the House of Representatives in July and awaits approval from the Senate before heading to the president’s desk, but Democrats hope to derail its trip.
Former President Bill Clinton and his failed presidential candidate wife, Hillary Clinton, have agreed to testify before Congress after being threatened with contempt charges.
The Clintons previously issued a defiant statement accusing the administration of using the apparatus of government to punish their political enemies, but they changed their tune Monday.
‘The former President and former Secretary of State will be there. They look forward to setting a precedent that applies to everyone.’
