A DOJ That Still Chases ‘Russian Hackers’ Will Never Reckon With Russiagate– thefederalist.com

Blurb:

With the indictment against former FBI Director James Comey dismissed on procedural grounds, we are back at square one on accountability for the Russia collusion hoax. There are some reports that Jason Reding, the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Florida, is examining the wider conspiracy involving Comey and several other key Russiagate figures who worked to conceal that the entire operation originated with the Clinton campaign. However, we have no clear sense of where that inquiry stands or whether it is moving at all.

What we do know is that any honest reckoning with Russiagate runs straight into a structural contradiction that would have haunted any prosecution of Comey and will continue to undermine any future attempt to hold the architects of the hoax to account.

No one has confronted the central problem that it is not logically or legally coherent to allege a domestic conspiracy to invent Russian collusion. At the same time, the Department of Justice keeps prosecuting Russian nationals for allegedly interfering in the 2016 election to help Trump.

Trump to Yank SNAP Food Aid from Dem States Who Refuse to Share Data to Catch Fraudsters– www.westernjournal.com

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump’s administration warned on Tuesday that it will withhold money for administering SNAP food aid in most Democratic-controlled states unless those states provide information about people receiving the assistance.

Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins said at a Cabinet meeting Tuesday that the action is looming because those states are refusing to provide requested data, such as the names and immigration status of aid recipients. She said the cooperation is needed to root out fraud in the program.

Democratic states have sued to block the requirement, saying they verify eligibility for SNAP beneficiaries and that they never share large swaths of sensitive program data with the federal government.

While taking questions from reporters at the White House President Donald Trump reiterated his administration’s intent to pursue land-based military actions against drug trafficking networks in Venezuela.

“We’re going to start doing those strikes on land, too. You know, the land is much easier, much easier. And we know the routes they take. We know everything about them. We know where they live. We know where the bad ones live, and we’re going to start that very soon too,” the president told reporters.

The president’s comments build on similar remarks made earlier in the week and underscores an escalation from maritime interdictions to potential operations on Venezuelan soil.

U.S. Seizes Massive Sanctioned Oil Tanker Off Venezuela, Crushing Illicit Iran–Venezuela Smuggling Network– gellerreport.com

In a dramatic escalation of U.S. pressure on hostile regimes, federal forces intercepted and seized a massive crude-oil tanker off the coast of Venezuela—one of the largest ever captured. President Trump confirmed the operation from the White House, calling it a major blow to an international smuggling network that moved sanctioned oil from both Venezuela and Iran to fund foreign terrorist organizations. The FBI, Homeland Security Investigations, and the U.S. Coast Guard executed the warrant with military support, neutralizing what officials described as a “stateless vessel” deeply embedded in years of illicit energy trade. The move jolted global markets, lifting Brent crude prices, and signaled Washington’s readiness to disrupt rogue-state financing far beyond U.S. shores.

House Democrats are increasingly taking aim at Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem as they criticize the Trump administration’s hard-line immigration policies during a Thursday hearing, where lawmakers called for her impeachment and resignation multiple times.

Noem testified before the House Homeland Security Committee about worldwide threats facing the nation. Democrats took the opportunity to chastise the Cabinet secretary for leading the Department of Homeland Security in carrying out the president’s mass deportation agenda.

During her line of questioning, Rep. Delia Ramirez (D-IL) alleged that Noem misused resources appropriated by Congress, engaged in unethical behavior, made false and misleading statements to Congress, and evaded congressional oversight. The congresswoman cited these reasons to justify why Noem should exit office, either willingly or involuntarily.

A Canadian pro-assisted suicide lobby group that has charity status wants Canada’s euthanasia laws expanded to allow minors to request the grim procedure.

The group, which calls itself Dying with Dignity Canada (DWDC), says Canada’s Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) laws should be expanded and allow for “mature minors.”

The group claims that it is a “national human-rights charity” to “improve quality of dying, protect end of dying rights, and help people across Canada avoid unwanted suffering.”

DWDC says that MAiD in Canada should also apply to “mature minors” who, it claims, are suffering “grievous and irremediable medical condition.”

“It is unfair to allow a 70-year-old with terminal cancer the choice of a peaceful death but deny a 17-year-old who has been given the same prognosis and demonstrates a clear capacity to make the decision as an adult, the same choice,” the group claims.

Thirteen House Republicans broke ranks Wednesday night, siding with Democrats to move ahead on a bill aimed at gutting President Donald Trump’s executive order clamping down on federal worker unions.

The push came from Rep. Jared Golden of Maine, who used a procedural weapon known as a discharge petition to force the issue onto the floor. The maneuver lets a majority of lawmakers drag a bill forward even if leadership wants it buried.

The House voted 222-200 to start debate and set up a final vote. All 209 Democrats joined 13 Republicans to advance the measure, which faces another procedural test Thursday.

A former Planned Parenthood director who spent 17 years working at abortion clinics has come forward with harrowing accounts of women delivering fully formed babies after taking abortion pills.

She says they are told to flush the remains down the toilet, confirming the abortion procedure’s deadly toll on unborn children and its devastating physical and emotional harm to mothers.

Mayra Rodriguez, who directed Planned Parenthood clinics in Texas and New Mexico, shared her experiences in a video testimony released Thursday by the group Stop Coerced Abortion. Rodriguez, now a witness in a lawsuit against Planned Parenthood and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz accusing the state of coercing women into abortions in violation of their 14th Amendment rights and the Equal Protection Clause for unborn children, described the abortion pill regimen. She said mifepristone, followed by misoprostol, starves the unborn child to death by cutting off nutrients before inducing labor to expel the remains of the baby.

The master messenger is at it again, this time handing the GOP the 2026 midterm talking points directly. During a rally Tuesday evening in Mount Pocono, Pennsylvania, President Trump reminded both Republicans and Democrats of just how savvy a messenger he can be when energizing his base. He crushed former President Joe Biden and his administration for overseeing the runaway inflation we are still battling today. He discussed his efforts to bring higher wage jobs to American workers, not illegal aliens. He dismantled Obamacare, highlighting high costs and the trillions in taxpayer dollars given to insurance companies instead of the American people. President Trump went full MAGA.

New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani has tasked a controversial rapper who spent seven years in prison for armed robbery to serve as an adviser for his criminal justice team, according to a report from the New York Post.

Mysonne Linen, 49, will sit on the incoming mayor’s transitional “criminal legal system” committee, The Post reported. A Bronx native, Linen was found guilty of armed robbery in connection with two heists in the late 1990s.

“This is a testament to our decades of work advocating on behalf of black and brown communities and our expertise in gun violence prevention, legislative advocacy and criminal justice reform,” Linen wrote in an Instagram post last month after the position was announced. “We are building something different.”

Linen was an up-and-coming rapper when he was convicted for being part of a crew that robbed two cab drivers in The Bronx, according to a New York Daily News article from the time. His conviction came just before the release of his first studio album with Def Jam Records.

Appeals Court Affirms New York Pregnancy Centers’ Right to Share Abortion Pill Reversal– www.standingforfreedom.com

On Monday, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit ruled that New York Attorney General Letitia James cannot stop pro-life pregnancy centers within the state from speaking about abortion pill reversal (APR).ADF Senior Counsel Caroline Lindsay, who argued before the court on behalf of three pro-life pregnancy care organizations, celebrated the ruling, stating, “The court is correct to affirm that women in New York have the right to access information about safe and effective supplemental progesterone through their local pregnancy centers, regardless of what the attorney general may personally believe. The First Amendment clearly protects the right to speak and hear about this potentially life-saving option.”

The case goes back to May 2024, when James announced that she was suing Heartbeat International, a group of pro-life pregnancy care centers that provide referrals for women seeking APR, along with 11 other New York crisis pregnancy centers. James claimed that APR is unproven and unsafe and wanted to block the centers from advertising its availability or discussing it with women.

 

Rogue Judge Orders Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s Release– trendingpoliticsnews.com

A federal judge on Thursday ordered the release of Salvadoran migrant Kilmar Abrego Garcia from federal custody, delivering a sharp rebuke to the Trump administration in a case that has ricocheted across borders and courtrooms for nearly 10 months.

U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis ruled that Abrego Garcia must be freed from the ICE Moshannon Valley Processing Center in Pennsylvania, saying the administration had failed to secure the required final notice of removal that would allow him to be deported to a third country, including several African nations previously floated by federal officials.

“Since Abrego Garcia’s return from wrongful detention in El Salvador, he has been re-detained, again without lawful authority,” Xinis said in her order. “For this reason, the Court will GRANT Abrego Garcia’s Petition for immediate release from ICE custody.”

Xinis had grilled Justice Department lawyers last month during a lengthy evidentiary hearing, pushing them to prove that a final removal order existed. DOJ attorney Drew Ensign argued that a 2019 immigration judge had effectively “meant” to issue such an order. Xinis dismissed that argument outright, stating, “No such order of removal exists for Abrego Garcia.”

The Justice Department is expected to appeal, as Ensign signaled in earlier proceedings.

“So what if it’s biased?” I ask. “It’s just one website.”

“Wikipedia’s information spreads into everything online,” he replies, “ChatGPT, … Siri, Alexa. Ask a question, it is all Wikipedia.”

As a result, “a few thousand powerful editors determine what gets counted as information.”

Those editors sure hate President Donald Trump. When he put undocumented immigrants in what people called “cages” at detention centers, Wikipedia editors listed the centers under “concentration camps.”

Federal agents were forced to deploy pepper spray and other crowd control measures after a sizable mob of Somali and far-left rioters surrounded them as they conducted deportation operations in Minneapolis on Tuesday.

Immigration agents have increased their presence in the state of Minnesota after President Donald Trump moved to terminate temporary protected status provisions for millions of Somalis. Minnesota currently has the largest Somali population in the United States.

Tuesday’s disturbance occurred when a group of far-left agitators blocked federal agents with their vehicles as they checked identification in a heavily Somali neighborhood.  This tactic has been commonly used by left-wing groups seeking to block deportation efforts in the nation’s largest cities.

“Thank God so many people showed up there,” said City Council Member Jamal Osman, a Somali American who represents the neighborhood and witnessed the disturbance. “[The agents] couldn’t get out of there because people showed up with their cars and whistles.”

Federal Court Strikes Down Florida Abortion Clinic Buffer Zone– www.standingforfreedom.com

A federal appeals court has ordered Clearwater, Florida, to halt enforcement of a city ordinance that created a pedestrian buffer zone outside an abortion clinic, ruling that the measure likely violates the First Amendment.Passed in 2023, the rule created a vehicular safety zone that bars anyone from using a stretch of sidewalk within five feet of the driveway at Bread and Roses Women’s Health Center during business hours. City officials say they put the zone in place to improve patient safety and reduce traffic concerns.

Florida Preborn Rescue, Inc., along with four sidewalk counselors, had challenged the ordinance, arguing that it kept them from offering peaceful guidance on a public walkway.

Tyler Brooks, senior counsel for Thomas More Society, who represents the plaintiffs, had argued on filing the suit,

“This buffer zone is clearly discriminatory and meant to stifle pro-life speech. It was instituted by the Clearwater city council for the express purpose of limiting the speech and activities of life advocates taking place outside of the deceptively genteel looking Bread and Roses abortion facility.”

U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer once again has blocked President Donald Trump from deploying the National Guard to Los Angeles, CA.

“Six months after they first federalized the California National Guard, Defendants still retain control of approximately 300 Guardsmen, despite no evidence that execution of federal law is impeded in any way—let alone significantly,” wrote Breyer. “What’s more, Defendants have sent California Guardsmen into other states, effectively creating a national police force made up of state troops.”

California Gov. Gavin Newsom and other plaintiffs filed a motion to enjoin this conduct. The Trump administration took “the position that, after a valid initial federalization, all subsequent re federalizations are completely, and forever, unreviewable by the courts.”

The “Defendants’ position is contrary to law,” stated Breyer.

Okay, so here’s the background because this is the third time Breyer issued this ruling.

In June, Breyer ruled that Trump’s order violated the 10th Amendment and exceeded his statutory authority.

House GOPers Surrender On Obamacare Fight– thefederalist.com

Blurb:

After successfully holding strong in the face of a Democrat-led government shutdown over Obamacare, a cabal of House Republicans is now waiving the white flag on the issue.

On Thursday, nearly three dozen Democrats and Republicans introduced a proposal to extend taxpayer-funded Obamacare subsidies. As Federalist Senior Contributor Christopher Jacobs has regularly reported in these pages, these Biden-era subsidies — which are set to expire at the end of this year — have been a complete and total disaster.

Spearheaded by Reps. Josh Gottheimer, D-N.J., and Jen Kiggins, R-Va., the measure “would extend and reduce the tax credits in a two-step process, requiring two separate votes by Congress,” according to The New York Times. While the first vote “would extend the tax credits for a year with some modifications, including the addition of a new income limit,” the second vote “would implement what the group described as ‘more significant reforms,’ including potentially eliminating $0 premiums, with exceptions for need-based support.”

During a press conference introducing the proposal, Democrat-turned-Republican Jeff Van Drew laid out his best case for forcing taxpayers to keep bankrolling this broken system. The New Jersey congressman’s explanation as a self-declared “conservative” was (naturally) unconvincing.

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte issued a stern warning to the organization’s allied nations on Thursday, suggesting they stand as “Russia’s next target” after Ukraine.

Rutte delivered the sobering message that NATO countries are “already in harm’s way” during a keynote address at a Berlin event hosted by the Munich Security Conference. He equated Ukraine’s security with Europe’s security and predicted that “Russia could be ready to use military force against NATO within five years.”

“The dark forces of oppression are on the march again. I am here today to tell you where NATO stands, and what we must do to stop a war before it starts. And to do that, we need to be crystal clear about the threat. We are Russia’s next target, and we are already in harm’s way,” Rutte said.

The sentiment of Rutte’s address echoed that of his very first major address as NATO chief one year ago, in which he warned member nations that they must shift to a “wartime mindset” and be willing to hike defense spending to prevent a war with Russia. In his speech on Thursday, Rutte circled back to this message to show the efforts put toward defense spending since his initial call to arms, but warned against complacency.

Senate Democrats today blocked a Republican health plan that would defund abortion by ensuring that Obamacare subsidies are not used to fund killing babies in abortions.

Democrats blocked the Crapo Cassidy bill on a 51 to 48 vote, with 60 votes necessary for the measure to move forward for debate and a final vote.

The vote was remarkable in the sense that over 50 Republican Senators agreed to the pro-life healthcare plan that would ensure that abortions are not funded with taxpayer dollars.

Republicans are unlikely to agree to a pro-abortion healthcare plan put forward by Democrat leader Chuck Schumer. Obamacare has been responsible for funding thousands of abortions with taxpayer dollars and Republican members are not inclined to go along with continuing that abortion funding.

Republicans in Kentucky are trying to end DEI in the state’s public schools, which is an objectively good thing. However, not everyone is on that bandwagon, including Rep. Sarah Stalker.

According to Stalker, it’s a privilege to be born with white skin. Unclear what she means by that because she provided zero evidence to support her statements, but you do the math. Nonetheless, what she said is worse than you can imagine.

According to the Kentucky Lantern:

When committee members were able to question the proposal, a few Democrats voiced opposition. Rep. Sarah Stalker, D-Louisville, said that by ending DEI in education, the General Assembly would be “missing an incredible opportunity.” As a white woman, she’s had moments to reflect on her own privilege that many of her colleagues, friends, family and more do not have.

“I think we’re missing an opportunity when kids have a moment to reflect about how the color of their skin does and does not allow them to move through the world,” Stalker said. “Running to them and trying to stifle that and trying to say, ‘You shouldn’t feel bad, so we don’t want to ever expose you to something that is going to make you have to pause and have maybe some internal feelings.’ It’s a missed opportunity for some really good dialog.”
