DAILY CALLER NEWS FOUNDATION—The Trump administration is making it much more difficult for foreign nationals who display anti-American behavior to live and work in the U.S.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will begin screening foreign national applicants for anti-American behavior when they apply for certain immigration benefits, according to a policy update from the agency. Posting anti-American rhetoric online, voicing solidarity with terrorist groups, or expressing antisemitic language would be deemed an “overwhelmingly negative” factor for migrants hoping to upgrade their status.

“America’s benefits should not be given to those who despise the country and promote anti-American ideologies,” USCIS spokesman Matthew Tragesser said in a public statement.

The National Park Service has fired a California ranger who draped a massive transgender pride flag across Yosemite’s iconic El Capitan rock formation earlier this year.

The National Park ranger was identified as Shannon “SJ” Joslin, 35, a wildlife biologist who “identifies” as “non-binary” and uses “they/them” pronouns.

She announced on Instagram Monday that the park dismissed her “for practicing my First Amendment right.”

Joslin admitted to raising the 55-foot by 35-foot flag in May but insisted the action was done while off duty as a private citizen.

Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt (R) signed a bill on Tuesday ending funding for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in higher education.

While Stitt signed SB 796 in May, he ceremonially signed the bill while joined by U.S. Secretary of Education Linda McMahon. McMahon joined Stitt for a visit and literacy roundtable at a public charter school called Dove Science Academy as part of her “Returning Education to the States” 50-State Tour.

“Oklahoma is proving the value of returning education to the states, with schools that emphasize literacy and equip students with what they need to succeed in the workforce,” McMahon said in a statement.

Excerpt:

The retailer, which operates nearly 2,000 stores nationwide, has blamed consumer spending amid economic uncertainty and tariffs.

Target announced Wednesday that longtime Chief Executive Brian Cornell will step down next year, as the retailer deals with sales declines and stacking controversies from both sides of the political aisle. Chief Operating Officer Michael Fiddelke has been named as his successor, reports CNN.

Cornell took over in 2014 and was credited with bringing life to the brand a decade ago, but has struggled in recent years as Target faced drops in revenues in the post-pandemic economy. In the first quarter of 2025, sales fell more sharply, and executives have warned that the downward trend is likely to continue through the end of the year.

The Fifth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Tuesday ruled that the structure of the National Labor Relations Board is likely unlawful and blocked the NLRB from pursuing cases against SpaceX, pipeline operator Energy Transfer, and Aunt Bertha, which operates a social services search engine, pending the outcome of their lawsuits.

The ruling came from a three-judge panel, two of whom were appointed by Trump and one by G. H. W. Bush.

At issue was the NLRB’s enabling legislation that allegedly prevents the president from firing either NLRB members or the administrative law judges employed by the NLRB.

Excerpt:

After five far-left Northern Virginia school districts refused to stop forcing “transgender” policies on their students, the U.S. Department of Education is proceeding with suspending or terminating federal funding.

The Education Department announced Tuesday that the five Washington, D.C.-suburb districts — Alexandria City, Arlington County, Fairfax County, Loudoun County, and Prince William County — would be placed on “high-risk status,” meaning they will be forced to pay education expenses up front, and the federal government will only reimburse them.

More than $50 million in grant funding, including formula, discretionary, and impact aid grants, will be under the reimbursement status, meaning the districts will have to prove that federal dollars are being spent consistently with federal law in order to get federal funding.

U.S. Deploys Warships to Venezuela in Trump’s Cartel Crackdown– townhall.com

The United States has deployed three Aegis guided-missile destroyers to the coast of Venezuela, amid President Trump’s push to pressure Latin American drug cartels.

The USS Gravely, the USS Jason Dunham, and the USS Sampson are set to arrive shortly, according to a U.S. official who was not authorized to comment and spoke Tuesday on the condition of anonymity to the Associated Press. They confirmed that U.S. military assets are being sent to the region for counter-narcotics operations and that the destroyers would be deployed “over the course of several months.”

The move comes as President Trump pushes to use the U.S. military against the cartels he blames for flooding American communities with fentanyl and fueling violence in American cities – both through illegal immigration, cross-border drug trafficking, as well as other long-established smuggling networks across land and sea – that Washington has previously failed to completely counter.

Washington, D.C. is proving the left’s excuses on crime are nothing but lies. With President Trump and federal authorities taking control, crime in the nation’s capital is finally being crushed. When leaders have the will and the common sense to act, the streets can be cleaned up fast.

These cities should be embarrassed—humiliated—that it took Trump and his team to show what’s possible when you stop coddling criminals and start protecting citizens.

CNN Would Rather Talk About Slavery… and a Lefty MAGA Supporter Exposed Why That’s the Case– townhall.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

President Trump said something about the Smithsonian and being too focused on slavery, which you know would trigger a meltdown among those in the liberal media. The legacy press can now whine about his posts and ignore the ongoing peace talks to end the war in Ukraine—a story that likely drove up the blood pressures in newsrooms since everyone knows Trump is a lock for the Nobel Peace Prize if he pulls this off. Meanwhile, Trump continues to gash the media for being biased and unhinged. He’s also trying to reset the academic direction regarding this nation’s history, which is too focused on highlighting the sins of the past to handcuff progress. Liberals would rather trap us perpetually in 1877 to feed their victimhood fetish and their obsession with trashing America.

 

CNN did just that last night, having a lengthy segment on slavery, Trump’s remarks, and other silliness. We don’t need to do this: Slavery was our original sin, our republic collapsed because of it, we fought a civil war, and it’s gone. That’s the point. It’s no longer allowed, prohibited forever by the 13th Amendment. It remains our bloodiest war, but also our most moral. And we became a better country for it in the long run, obviously. But the Left would rather obsess about race and white supremacy, which isn’t an accident.

Lefty MAGA supporter Batya Ugar-Sargon ripped the guts out of the segment, noting that in 2012, white progressives became addicted to anything relating to race, slavery, and white supremacy, which was magnified by the liberal media. It was a surreal moment:

Meanwhile, Scott Jennings offered a take that not even liberals on the panel could reject. And no, Trump is not saying slavery wasn’t bad or never happened. It’s the ‘Great Awokening’ that he’s combating, but the Left is too stupid to realize that.

The directive, detailed in a letter from the Department’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR), was in response to “pervasive and repugnant race-based preferences” that have turned America’s schools into indoctrination camps.

President Donald Trump first reinstated an expanded version of the Reagan-era policy on January 24, 2025, establishing rigorous oversight to ensure that no organization receiving taxpayer dollars is able to violate the policy.

If you want to know why the media shills for Hamas, rewatch this segment on CNN with Josh Rogin and Scott Jennings. The Gaza war was the topic, since Israel announced they were going in to destroy the rest of the terror group and occupy the rest of the strip.

Rogin then went on some cockamamie analysis about how Israel wants to prolong the war, the suffering, and said that if occupying Gaza would destroy Hamas, it would’ve worked by now. It hasn’t. My man, its last stronghold has been untouched by Israeli forces. They still have an enclave of control. Jennings rightly said that Hamas doesn’t want a ceasefire, and they don’t want to release the hostages. Nothing can happen until Hamas is gone, to which Rogin said, “Hamas is part of Palestinian society in all ways and forms. So, you can’t completely eliminate it.”

Harry looked at polling data in light of Donald Trump’s common sense Washington DC reform and Democrats finding a new 80-20 issue to be on the wrong side of. Though this one is more of a 91-9 issue.

These numbers are before Trump’s DC takeover, but of note:

  • Trump has a fourteen point swing in how he handles crime
  • There is a TWENTY-SEVEN point gap between Trump and The People Who Controlled Joe Biden
  • Republicans lead Democrats by sixteen points when it comes to handling crime

SAN ANTONIO, Texas — In another sign of woke-fatigue, a weekend Pro-Hamas protest organized by the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL) only managed to draw about a dozen supporters in Texas’ second-largest city. The Saturday afternoon protest above the city’s famous riverwalk garnered little attention from the hundreds of tourists visiting the Alamo city’s famous nearby attractions.

Despite having a population of nearly 1.5 million residents in San Antonio to draw from, the protest advertised on social media by the local PSL chapter failed to attract hardly any socialist activists. The event was billed as an emergency protest to stop the starvation in Gaza and to call for an end to all U.S. aid to Israel.

Well, it indeed happened, as Legal Insurrection‘s own Leslie Eastman explained at the time:

Unfortunately, the woke and those who bitterly cling to “body positivity” and victimhood are incredibly unhappy. The elite media refers to the ads as “controversial” as they promote the hysterical and nonsensical takes on the AE campaign.
