President Trump held an AI summit at the White House where he and tech leaders from Elon Musk to Mark Zuckerberg agreed to self-govern their roll-out of AI.
The President has held that holding back AI will allow China to dominate us, and that includes militarily. The move appears intended to ward off any legislative efforts to limit AI. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-AR) appeared to cosign the agreement, claiming “The super intelligence providers are committed to building trust as they help us build the future.”
Trump, Tech Leaders Sign White House Accord on ‘Super Intelligence’ › American Greatness– amgreatness.com News Source
EXCERPT:
President Donald Trump and some of the world’s most prominent technology executives signed the White House Accord on Super Intelligence on Tuesday, establishing voluntary standards aimed at oversight, transparency and accountability as the industry rapidly develops advanced technology.
The agreement came the same day Trump signed an executive order officially rebranding artificial intelligence as “Super Intelligence.”
House Speaker Mike Johnson unveiled the accord outside the West Wing alongside executives including xAI’s Elon Musk, Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg, Anthropic’s Dario Amodei and Nvidia’s Jensen Huang. The announcement followed a private luncheon attended by Trump, Johnson, Cabinet officials and technology leaders.
“The super intelligence providers are committed to building trust as they help us build the future,” Johnson said, adding that the executives were prepared to “take accountability and ownership.”
Johnson described the agreement as a voluntary statement of principles establishing expectations for “robust internal controls and layers of internal and external review.” He said Congress and the White House would continue working to guide the industry’s development in a safe manner.
Trump compared the accord to a constitution and praised the executives for coming together.
“They love our country, they love the world,” Trump said. “And they came together, and they did something … it’s almost like a constitution in a way.”
An attack on a UK Airbase that also hosts American forces was stopped by British authorities. Five Islamist men were arrested and promptly released on bail. Now, the U.S. and the UK are claiming Iran is behind the attacks. Given Iran’s promise to attack British airbases, it is no surprise such a deduction was made. The President has called the UK’s handling of this attack inadequate.

An Islamist attempted to hijack a plane and fly it into Israel. He was the co-pilot of a FlyDubai flight. He stabbed his co-pilot multiple times but was detained by Israelis while the plane was still in a nose-dive. The media reported this as a dispute between the two pilots, protecting the “Islam is the religion of peace” narrative. It has since come out he was an Islamist intending on murdering Israelis by crashing their plane in Israel.

All but one of Minnesota’s U.S. district justices received a judicial misconduct complaint from the Department of Justice. AG Todd Blanche filed the complaints after the justices allegedly violated ethical standards by talking about ongoing immigration cases with the press.
Blanche declared, “Seven federal judges in the District of Minnesota talked to the New York Times about cases, some of which are on-going, in a manner that the Department of Justice views as a clear violation of their ethical duties. Their conduct has undermined public confidence in an impartial judiciary in Minnesota.”

The Department of Justice filed a complaint of judicial misconduct against Hon. Patrick J. Schiltz, Hon. John R. Tunheim, and Anonymous District Judges at the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota.
On September 17, 2026, the paper published an article titled Trump’s Minnesota Surge Threatened Democracy, Judge Warns. The article explains that Judge Patrick Schiltz of the District of Minnesota sat for a 90-minute interview. Six other “members of Minnesota’s federal bench” also “agreed to speak to the New York Times about last winter’s tumult.” This included “six of the seven judges who held active status in Minnesota last winter.”

The Senate voted 53-47 along party lines, leaving the “Stop Insider Trading Act” seven votes short of the 60 needed to advance.
The House had previously approved the legislation with support from Republicans and 13 Democrats. Wednesday’s Senate vote effectively ends the measure’s chances of reaching President Donald Trump’s desk before the Nov. 3 midterm elections.
While the legislation sought to prohibit lawmakers from trading individual stocks, Democratic opposition centered largely on Republicans’ inclusion of a voter ID provision.
Republicans have separately sought passage of the SAVE America Act, legislation that would establish voter identification requirements. Democratic opposition has prevented that measure from advancing, prompting Republicans to attach voter ID provisions to other legislation.
The Senate vote puts Democrats on record opposing a measure that combined two priorities Republicans have promoted ahead of the midterms: restricting congressional stock trading and strengthening identification requirements for voting.
The House’s passage of the legislation, including votes from 13 Democrats, demonstrated some bipartisan support for banning congressional stock trading. But the addition of the voter ID provision helped ensure the legislation could not secure the Democratic votes necessary to overcome the Senate’s 60-vote threshold.
Inside Jack Smith’s Trump dragnet– www.theblaze.com News Source
EXCERPT:
Jack Smith, the Biden regime’s former special counsel, is back in the news with his testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday. The Oversight Project has uncovered new records that don’t focus on the settled question of why Smith used federal power to target political enemies, but instead on how he was able to do it.
Understanding the “how” is more important at this stage. We all know why the weaponization of the Biden years happened. It happened because they wanted to extinguish a political movement so that people from around the country could never truly shake up Washington, D.C., again.
For those who believe Smith’s investigation crossed the line from legitimate law enforcement into political targeting, that broader reach is the central issue.
We also know why it can happen again if Democrats take back power.
In Democrats’ minds, they have unfinished business. They regard Donald Trump and his supporters as too great a threat to stop short the next time. That makes it essential to understand how the weaponization of government happened, how it could happen again, and what reforms are needed now to prevent a repeat.
Instead, systemic reform has largely fallen by the wayside, replaced by political declarations that government weaponization has been solved once and for all.
With few signs of meaningful accountability, the need for concrete action is urgent.
January 6 gave Democrats the justification they needed to discard restraint and use the powers of federal law enforcement against their political opponents. That effort did not stop with President Trump. It extended to his supporters, especially those who challenged the conduct of the 2020 election or became prominent figures in the broader America First movement.
Rubio Says ‘Foreign Actor’ Was Behind Thwarted Plot Near U.S.-Used Air Base in Britain › American Greatness– amgreatness.com News Source
EXCERPT:
Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Monday that a “foreign actor” was involved in a thwarted plot near a British military base used by U.S. forces, warning that threats against American interests will carry consequences.
“What happened, what almost happened, what could have happened in the U.K. over the weekend is a very serious situation,” Rubio told Fox News’ “Hannity.” “It’s one that clearly involves the hands of a foreign actor.”
Rubio declined to identify the foreign actor but pointed to Iran as an example of a country that has threatened American interests around the world.
“We’re going to always take that very seriously,” Rubio said. “There will be repercussions for that, if it ever were to happen or even attempted.”
British police arrested five men early Sunday after authorities were alerted to three large white vans parked near RAF Fairford in western England. The base is operated by Britain’s Royal Air Force and used by the U.S. military.
All five suspects, British nationals in their early 20s from London, were released on bail Monday as authorities continued investigating whether people acting on behalf of a foreign state were involved.
President Donald Trump said Monday that the incident “might be” connected to Iran and criticized the decision to release the suspects.

DeSantis, Florida Cabinet designate more than 90 groups as terrorist organizations
Gov. Ron DeSantis and the Florida Cabinet on Tuesday voted to designate more than 90 groups as terrorist organizations, and a legal challenge is already in the works seeking to block the move.
With little comment from the state panel and no public testimony, the Cabinet voted to apply domestic or foreign terrorist designations to a series of groups, including the Council on American-Islamic Relations, the Muslim Brotherhood and antifa.
The designations will also apply to more than 90 organizations already listed as foreign terrorist organizations by the U.S. government, including the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua, two Mexican drug cartels and Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
Under a new law, HB 1471, that took effect July 1, CAIR filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Florida in Tallahassee, contending that DeSantis is violating the First Amendment and the due process clause of the 14th Amendment.
Hina Shamsi, director of the ACLU National Security Project, said attorneys intend to file a motion Thursday on behalf of CAIR-Florida seeking a preliminary injunction against the designation.
“There is nowhere in that notice any allegation or evidence that CAIR has engaged in any violent or dangerous act in violation of Florida or U.S. law,” Shamsi said Tuesday outside the Cabinet meeting. “And that’s the first requirement for something as serious as this.”
British Intelligence Accuses China Of Spying On UK’s AI Research– dailycaller.com News Source
EXCERPT:
British security officials warned that a Chinese research body is funding academic work that aids Beijing’s spy agency.
Britain’s MI5 security service on Wednesday named the China General Technology Research Institute (CGTRI) as a funder of work by more than 100 academics based in the UK, including artificial intelligence research, according to an espionage alert the agency published. The service said CGTRI is closely tied to China’s civilian spy agency — the Ministry of State Security (MSS) — and exists mainly to bankroll research that sharpens that agency’s technical tools.
“MI5 has identified that the primary purpose of CGTRI is to fund academic research that directly improves MSS technical capability for espionage,” the alert stated in part.
U.K. academics have contributed to CGTRI-funded projects on AI, cybersecurity, covert communications systems and steganography, according to the MI5 alert. The agency said some universities and researchers likely did not know CGTRI’s link to Chinese intelligence when they took the money, Reuters reported.

James Talarico Refused to Support Bill to Stop Infanticide– www.lifenews.com News Source
EXCERPT:
Texas Senate candidate James Talarico refused to support a 2019 Texas bill that would stop infanticide.
He refused to vote for legislation that required doctors to give life-saving medical care to infants born alive after an abortion, a measure pro-life lawmakers said was necessary to stop infanticide.
Talarico, then representing Round Rock and now the Democrat nominee for U.S. Senate, recorded his vote as “present, not voting” on House Bill 16, the Texas Born-Alive Infant Protection Act. He did not vote yes to mandate that physicians treat a child who survives an abortion the same way they would treat any other infant born at the same gestational age.
Texas Right to Life gave Talarico a 0 percent pro-life score for the 86th Legislative Session. The group cited his present-not-voting stance on the born-alive bill and his opposition to expanding the state’s Alternatives to Abortion program.
The born-alive bill, authored by Rep. Jeff Leach, R-Plano, created criminal and civil penalties for doctors who withhold appropriate care. A physician who failed to act after a failed abortion could face a third-degree felony punishable by two to 10 years in prison and a civil fine of at least $100,000. Gov. Greg Abbott signed the measure, and it took effect Sept. 1, 2019.
Traditional Catholics Silenced Under Leo XIV’s Call for Unity– www.lifesitenews.com News Source
EXCERPT:
Pope Leo XIV speaks of unity, inclusion, and love. But traditional Catholics are being locked out of churches, denied access to relics, and excluded from pilgrimages. This Faith & Reason examines the inconsistency between calls for inclusion and the treatment of the SSPX and faithful attached to the Traditional Latin Mass, including the denial of access to relics during a pilgrimage in Ontario.
The discussion turns to President Trump’s decision to limit certain media organizations’ access to the White House, contrasted with a guest’s account of a Catholic journalist allegedly threatened with exclusion from Vatican events under Pope Francis. The hosts criticize mainstream media and its role in shaping public opinion, arguing that the same outlets demanding transparency are often complicit in suppressing inconvenient truths.
Leo’s references to liberty, equality, fraternity, and love are examined in relation to God and Catholic teaching—not as values independent of faith. The historical and religious implications of the French Revolution are discussed.
The pattern is clear: unity is demanded from traditional Catholics, but not extended to them. The question is whether the faithful will recognize the double standard—or continue to be silenced by calls for “inclusion” that exclude them.

“Tafoya does extremely well with men and Flanagan is losing every age group other than the youngest of voters.”
The Minnesota Senate race between Republican Michele Tafoya and Democrat Peggy Flanagan remains a closely contested battle. Multiple consecutive polls have shown the candidates just points apart from each other, within the margin of error.
A recent InsiderAdvantage poll of 1,200 likely voters conducted September 28-29 found Flanagan leading Tafoya 46 percent to 45 percent, a one-point difference within the poll’s 2.95 percentage-point margin of error.
“This survey is unusual in that it goes against many of the trends we are seeing in other Senate contests. It appears that the decrease in popularity of Governor Tim Walz, combined with the growing evidence of fraud in the state are taking a toll on the DFL nominee,” InsiderAdvantage pollster Matt Towery said in a memo about the poll.
“Tafoya does extremely well with men and Flanagan is losing every age group other than the youngest of voters, who in the poll have a significant ‘enthusiasm about voting’ gap versus other age groups who are more enthusiastic,” Towery added.

School has ended DEI research projects, spokesperson says
The University of Missouri is investigating a professor after he was secretly recorded admitting that diversity, equity, and inclusion activities persist at the university.
In a video released by the watchdog group Accuracy in Media, MU Sociology Department Chair Wayne Brekhus discussed the department’s continued DEI involvement despite state restrictions.
“Lots of us do DEI types of research and things like that. I do things with identities and inequalities and used to do a lot of LGBTQ research and things like that,” Brekhus told an undercover investigator.
Asked about the state lawmakers’ anti-DEI directives, Brekhus said they “haven’t hit the curriculum.”
He also described ways institutions have been able to bypass Missouri’s DEI restrictions.
“Usually what places did is, like, they changed the name or they put them under a different umbrella to make it less visible that it was DEI or things like that,” he said.
“It was mostly cosmetic, but in some cases that also meant, you know, if you’re folding it under another umbrella that isn’t explicitly listed as DEI, sometimes that means you’re cutting staff or you’re making it less visible to the students. So, like, those sorts of things have happened really everywhere,” he said.
Blackburn Sues Jack Smith Over ‘Unlawful’ Phone Record Seizure– thefederalist.com News Source
EXCERPT:
Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., filed a lawsuit against former Special Counsel Jack Smith on Wednesday over his “unlawful” seizure of her cell phone records during his Arctic Frost lawfare against Donald Trump. The suit also challenges the legality of Smith’s appointment as special counsel.
“Through his Arctic Frost witch hunt that targeted conservatives across America and even the President of the United States, Jack Smith perpetrated one of the worst abuses of government power in our nation’s history,” Blackburn said in a statement. “This lawsuit is solely about holding Mr. Smith accountable and ensuring that our nation’s justice system can never again be weaponized against the American people.”
Represented by the New Civil Liberties Alliance (NCLA), Blackburn alleged that, while serving as special counsel, Smith violated her “constitutional and civil rights” by subpoenaing her cell phone toll records as part of his Arctic Frost inquiry. Smith sought and acquired a nondisclosure order from a federal court, “while withholding from the presiding judge the material fact that the subpoena sought the records of a sitting U.S. Senator,” according to NCLA. This NDO prevented Blackburn’s cell phone carrier from notifying her that Smith had subpoenaed her records.
California’s public campuses must offer abortions. None advertise prenatal care.– www.thecollegefix.com News Source
EXCERPT:
Every public California university is required by law to provide abortions in their student health centers, but only three provide ultrasounds and none advertise comprehensive prenatal care on campus, a College Fix analysis found.
A number of campuses do offer non-medical resources, such as family study rooms, for pregnant and parenting students. However, the medical services for pregnant students appear limited primarily to abortions.
For the analysis, The College Fix looked at the student health center websites at 33 University of California and California State University campuses. The Fix compared the medical services they provide for pregnant students.
Three campuses, UC Santa Barbara, UC Davis, and Chico State, advertise ultrasounds available for pregnant students. However, none of the 33 campus health centers offer comprehensive prenatal care in-house, according to their websites.
At one campus, Cal State Long Beach, the Student Health Services told The College Fix via email that it “is happy to assist students in connecting with appropriate outside providers” when asked about prenatal care.

DOJ Announces Federal Indictments Against 10 Foreign Nationals Accused of Illegal Voting in Minnesota and Judicial Misconduct Complaint– amgreatness.com News Source EXCERPT:
The Department of Justice on Wednesday announced federal indictments against ten foreign nationals accused of illegally registering and voting in Minnesota elections, while also filing a judicial misconduct complaint against nearly the entire federal bench in the deep blue state.
Attorney General Todd Blanche said a federal grand jury returned the indictments alleging nine counts of illegal voting by an alien and nine counts of falsely claiming U.S. citizenship to register to vote.
“Today’s charges allege that ten foreign nationals committed voter fraud in Minnesota, one voting illegally as recently as this August’s primary,” said AG Blanche. “The law is clear, only American citizens may vote in American elections, and enforcing this law is fundamental to our democracy. That should not be a partisan concept.”
During a press conference with Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin, Blanche said the defendants illegally Voted in the November 2022 and 2024 General Election and as recently as the August 2026 Primary Election.
The defendants come from Liberia, Lithuania, Ghana, Germany, Bosnia, Brazil, Canada, and South Africa. Notably, one defendant, Joshua Frederick Kofi Edzie, is accused of voting illegally in the August 2026 primary.
Blanche told reporters that since President Trump returned to office, the Justice Department has prosecuted more than 90 people with voter related offenses, including 50 aliens in just the past five weeks. He added that there are currently hundreds of voter fraud cases being investigated across the country. Blanche contrasted that with the merely 13 cases that were investigated during the Biden years.
“That’s much different from what we’re doing,” Blanche said. “We’re focused on accountability and restoring trust in our elections.”
Blanche also announced that the Justice Department just filed the judicial misconduct complaint with 8th Circuit Court of Appeals, accusing all but one of the Minnesota judges of violating various judicial canons, including speaking to the media during active lawsuits.
“Specifically, the former chief judge spoke on the record to the New York Times about the immigration [enforcement] surge late last year and early this year in Minneapolis,” Blanche told reporters.
The AG was referring to Judge Patrick Schiltz, the former chief judge of the U.S. District Court for Minnesota, who gave a 90-minute interview to the Timesin which he described the administration’s handling of Operation Metro Surge as a “grave threat to the rule of law.”
Six other members of Minnesota’s federal bench also agreed to speak with the Times, Blanche said, accusing them of violating their ethical duties.
The Justice Department argues that the Times article demonstrated that the judges had an animosity toward the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), undermining the impartiality of the federal court in Minnesota.
“These judges should be ordered to recuse from any matters involving DHS because the public reasonably questions their impartiality in cases involving immigration,” said Deputy Attorney General Trent McCotter and Associate Attorney General Stanley Woodward in the formal complaint.
DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin emphasized that the Trump administration will not allow the votes of American citizens to be cancelled out by illegal votes.
“Our message to aliens who vote in American elections is clear: we will find you, arrest you, and you will face the consequences, including criminal charges and deportation,” Mullin stated. “Under President Trump’s leadership, this administration will never allow the votes of American citizens to be cancelled out by non-citizens illegally voting in our elections. Only American citizens should be electing American leaders.”
The defendants and their charges include:

REPORT: Sensitive Data Of FBI Agents Stolen In Hack– trendingpoliticsnews.com News Source

The hacking group known as ShinyHunters is claiming that had obtained sensitive personnel information associated with Federal Bureau of Investigation employees and job applicants.
The group said the data was taken from systems linked to the FBI’s jobs portal and related services. According to a report from ABC News, which reviewed sample records, portions of the material appeared consistent with public records and other available information.
The FBI said it was investigating the claims and had not publicly confirmed the full scope of any intrusion or the origin of all of the material.
“We have compromised the FBI,” the group wrote in a message addressed to FBI Director Kash Patel and Cyber Division official Brett Leatherman. “We hold very sensitive data on almost ALL FBI Agents and individuals who filed an application with the FBI for a job.”
The group further stated that the operation was a response to a May 2026 FBI public advisory describing ShinyHunters’ methods and advising targets not to pay. It demanded that the FBI “correct or simply REMOVE” the advisory within a week.
In addition, the group said the effort was “not financially motivated and claimed to have taken two to three terabytes of data. They later stated that the material covered tens of thousands of current and former personnel and applicants.

Just ahead of the midterms, President Donald Trump’s approval rating hit an all-time low at just 32%. This is according to the latest Reuters/Ipsos Poll. Coming as they do just before the midterms, this does not bode well for the GOP ticket.
Poll: Trump’s Approval Rating Drops to New Low as Midterms Loom– www.breitbart.com News Source
EXCERPT:
President Donald Trump’s approval rating has fallen to a new low in another poll as the midterms are just weeks away.
Surveying 1,277 likely voters with a margin of error of +/- 3 percentage points, the latest Reuters/Ipsos poll found that the president’s overall approval stands at 32 percent. Even among Republicans, the president’s approval saw a significant drop in the week from 82 percent to 73 percent — a drop from 86 percent in January of this year and 91 percent following the inauguration in January 2025.
The president’s approval among Republicans has been steadily declining since the Iran conflict began, with recent polling showing a drop among his base even on economic issues. Since January, Republican support for Trump’s handling of the economy has dropped to 56 percent while Republican support for his handling of the cost of living has dropped to 44 percent.
“For really his entire political career, the president has enjoyed very strong support among the Republican Party and among his base, and that’s still true today, but it’s a bit less true,” Alec Tyson, senior vice president and lead pollster at Ipsos Public Affairs, told the Hill.
“Those are striking numbers,” Tyson added, “Numbers that we hadn’t seen until recent weeks here in our Ipsos polling.”
Approval ratings for the president as the midterms loom have ranged from as high as 39 percent to as low as 29 percent. According to Fox News, Republican performance in the coming midterms will hinge on several factors, most specifically inflation and base enthusiasm:
Democrats last week heavily criticized Trump and Republicans after the president argued that fuel costs were “a very inexpensive price to pay for what we’ve done,” as he pointed to the attacks on Iran’s nuclear facilities.
Meanwhile, the latest Fox News poll indicated that by a wide margin, the Democrats are considered the party that would better handle inflation.
But when asked about the overall economy, recent national surveys from Reuters/Ipsos and NBC News had the GOP and Democrats all knotted up on which party would better handle the issue.
The EU is ordering AI agents like ChatGPT to enforce its recently enacted (and now in-effect) Online Censorship laws. These laws protect favored classes like Muslims, homosexuals, and people of color from “offensive” language. They also penalize positive expressions of unfavored classes like Christians, heterosexuals, and whites.
EU Orders ChatGPT, Reddit, Roblox to Enforce Sweeping Online Censorship Rules– slaynews.com News Source
EXCERPT:
Unelected European Union bureaucrats are tightening their grip on American technology platforms, ordering ChatGPT, Reddit, and Roblox to comply with the bloc’s sweeping online speech regulations or risk crippling financial penalties.
The European Commission has officially designated ChatGPT as a “Very Large Online Search Engine” (VLOSE) under the EU’s controversial Digital Services Act (DSA).
Reddit and Roblox have meanwhile been classified as “Very Large Online Platforms” (VLOPs).
The designations place all three American services under the DSA’s most stringent regulatory regime.
The companies now have until January 2027 to comply with additional requirements governing how they assess, monitor, and mitigate what EU regulators classify as “systemic risks.”
Those requirements extend beyond material that is actually illegal.
Under the DSA, regulators can also scrutinize lawful information they determine contributes to broader “systemic risks,” including content deemed “misleading,” “deceptive,” or “disinformation.”
That sweeping authority has fueled warnings that Brussels has created a censorship mechanism capable of pressuring American companies to suppress perfectly legal speech.
Theordore DeBlasio was awarded $670,000 in his lawsuit against New Jersey’s Essex County. He sued the county after he was fired for refusing to get the Covid-19 vaccine. He applied for a religious exemption, but the county refused his appeal. While he was being denied a religious exemption, Muslims in the county were not.
Another Incredible Win Against the Covid Tyrants: New Jersey Jury Delivers Unanimous 8–0 Verdict for Christian Groundskeeper Fired Over a Religious Exemption — Awarded $671,000– www.thegatewaypundit.com News Source
EXCERPT:
A New Jersey jury just delivered a message that the Democrat machine in Essex County did not want to hear.
On Friday, an Essex County jury returned a unanimous 8–0 verdict for Theodore “Teddy” DeBlasio, a longtime groundskeeper at Essex County Hospital Center who was fired after the county denied his religious exemption from the COVID-19 vaccine mandate.
The panel awarded him more than $670,000 for economic and emotional harm. Attorneys’ fees are still to come. Punitive damages are next.
Attorney John D. Coyle of Coyle Law Group called it New Jersey’s first jury verdict in a COVID-19 religious exemption case.
DeBlasio, raised Catholic and now a Christian, objected to taking a shot tested or developed using aborted fetal cell lines. That is a sincerely held religious belief millions of Americans share. Essex County treated it like a punchline.
According to trial evidence cited by Coyle Law Group, in February 2022 the county denied every religious exemption request submitted by Christian and Catholic employees, and approved every request submitted by Muslim employees.
Bessent: Iran’s Economy Will Have ‘Nothing Left to Trade’ in Two Weeks– www.breitbart.com News Source
EXCERPT:
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent warned Sunday that Iran will have “nothing left to trade for anything” within roughly two weeks as its remaining oil reaches China, arguing that the Trump administration’s economic campaign has brought Tehran “to its knees” and is driving the regime to seek a deal.
Bessent said only about 15 million barrels of Iranian oil remain on the water as the United States maintains its blockade of Iranian exports, leaving Tehran close to exhausting one of its remaining major sources of revenue.
“I am confident, given that there are only 15 million more barrels of Iranian oil on the water, that Iran will have nothing left to trade for anything,” Bessent told Fox News’s Larry Kudlow on Sunday Morning Futures.
Bessent put the remaining window at roughly two weeks.
“Probably within the next two weeks, they are going to make their final deliveries of oil to China, and then they will have nothing,” he said. “It is an empty set, and I believe they are feeling the pressure here and that’s why they want a deal.”
Bessent’s assessment comes as President Donald Trump has rejected Tehran’s latest proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz while signaling that negotiations could continue this week, saying Iran is now seeking terms Washington might have accepted before the war.
“They want to make a deal, but it is not the deal that I want to make,” Trump told Axios on Sunday. “It is what we would have maybe agreed to a year ago. They overplayed their hand.”
Lame-duck TN lawmaker throws kitchen sink at Trump with 26 articles of impeachment | The Post Millennial– thepostmillennial.com News Source
EXCERPT:
Democratic Tennessee Representative Steve Cohen introduced over two dozen articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump this week. The move comes after the House rejected a separate impeachment resolution earlier this month.
Cohen’s 26 articles cover a broad range of allegations, ranging from Trump’s immigration policies to use of military force, to election rhetoric. The first article accuses Trump of “undermining democracy” by promoting doubt in US elections, while another accuses him of abusing his power by waging war in Iran without congressional approval. A separate article focuses on Trump’s deployment of military forces against US cities to combat unruly political agitators and crime.
“Trump is clearly the most impeachable President our country has ever endured. His continued presence in office is a danger to our democracy,” Cohen claimed in a press release. “That the sycophantic Republican majority in Congress is derelict in its duty does not mean that I must abandon my responsibilities. I took an independent oath to support and defend the Constitution. That commitment compels me to introduce this resolution today. When historians write about this period, and our constituents ask who stood up to President Trump’s lawlessness, this resolution is the answer.”
The effort comes less than two weeks after the House rejected an impeachment attempt brought forward by Representative Al Green. Green’s effort was narrower, focusing on Trump’s immigration policies and accusing him of abusing presidential authority after the killings of several civilians by federal agents.
It remains to be seen how Democrats will decide to move forward with impeachment attempts against Trump. The House voted to table Green’s resolution, and Democratic leaders did not endorse the effort.
U.S. Ambassador David Purdue Says Trump Offered To Sell U.S. Weapons To Chinese President Xi Jinping During Meeting– wltreport.com News Source
EXCERPT:
U.S. Ambassador to China David Perdue gave some inside details on President Trump’s recent meetings with Chinese President Xi Jinping.
Perdue, in a recent interview with Fox News, shared that President Trump offered the Chinese President to buy U.S. weapons.
The former Senator from Georgia, however, did not reveal what Xi Jinping said in response to Trump’s offer.
Mediaite provided quotes from Ambassador David Perdue:
President Donald Trump asked Chinese leader Xi Jinping if he would like to buy American weapons during the communist politician’s three day trip to the States last week, according to U.S. Ambassador to China David Purdue.
The ambassador shared the surprising news during an interview on Fox News Sunday with anchor Shannon Bream.
“President Trump continues to say, ‘Hey, we sell arms to other people around the world.’ He actually asked President Xi if he would like to buy some, at one point,” Purdue said.
The comment came as he defended Trump’s relationship with Taiwan, with Purdue arguing Trump has “already sold 50% more arms to Taiwan than any other president since 1979.”
He said Trump’s support for an independent Taiwan should not be questioned, before saying the president is always in deal-making mode, even when it comes to potentially selling arms to America’s biggest rival.
Here’s the moment Perdue made the comments:

ICE: Arrests of Illegal Immigrants, ‘Collaterals’ Will Continue– legalinsurrection.com News Source
EXCERPT:
ICE officers can still arrest illegal immigrants without additional criminal histories, including during operations targeting someone else. The Trump administration says that has not changed.
President Donald Trump told Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin that anyone in the country illegally remains “on the table” for arrest and deportation. ICE field offices also received new guidance reaffirming that authority.
“I’ve spoken on the phone with President Trump and nine ICE & DHS sources about this today. Here’s what I’ve learned.
Yes, this verbal guidance did go out to ICE offices across the country last night. I’ve spoken with ICE agents who received it & were shocked & frustrated by it. It’s unclear who it started with. However, I’m told it’s erroneous, was some type of “miscommunication” during conversations about prioritizing “worst first”, and there is no change in immigration enforcement policy. President Trump tells me anyone in the country illegally remains “on the table” for ICE arrest & deportation. I’m also told new guidance went out to ICE field offices tonight to reaffirm this and that yes, arrests of illegal aliens and “collaterals” without additional criminal history will continue. ICE sources confirm to me they received the new guidance.
I’m not really sure what happened here – but everyone is on the same page, including President Trump, in telling me that his immigration enforcement agenda isn’t scaling back.”
