President Donald Trump reportedly convinced Reps. Anna Paulina Luna of Florida and Tim Burchett of Tennessee to drop their demand that the SAVE Act be included in legislation to reopen the government.
The House voted Tuesday to end the government shutdown — 217 to 214 — with 21 Republicans voting against the package and 21 Democrats voting for it.
Luna and Burchett both voted against the legislation, but voted in favor of the rule that allowed it to be considered by the whole House.
Trump signed the measure Tuesday afternoon.
This may surprise you, but Democrat thought leader Jasmine Crockett is spreading an invalid truth about border patrol. I know, right? Next, I’ll say that rain is wet. What’s different between this lie and every other lie that Democrats and the media (but I repeat myself) in the name of open borders is that her story has been debunked since 2021. Remember the border patrol agent “whipping” a Haitian migrant?
This is a good story to have in your back pocket since 98.6% of the anti-ICE stories coming from the media and the democrat party (but I repeat myself) always wind up being bullplop once facts and evidence crack in. Which says nothing of the unintentional comedy of Democrats thinking Haiti is a sh*thole now after claiming it was a beautiful Island paradise when Trump called it a sh*thole.
Chinese nationals, with the support of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), are engaging in a massive Handmaid’s Tale-style scheme of using U.S. surrogates to carry and give birth to children who are then granted birthright citizenship, bestselling investigative journalist and Breitbart News Senior Contributor Peter Schweizer reveals in his new book, The Invisible Coup: How American Elites and Foreign Powers Use Immigration as a Weapon.
Historian raises concerns about universities teaching ‘victim’-focused, revisionist history
Philadelphia’s largest universities have been mostly quiet about plans to celebrate America’s 250th anniversary on July 4, although University of Pennsylvania has announced some classes and projects.
Drexel and Temple universities also have a few loosely connected exhibits and conferences, but none responded to The Fix‘s requests for comment about their plans.
Meanwhile, a historian who spoke with The College Fix raised concerns about universities portraying America’s first year as a country
“The evidence that were obtained did provide us with DNA evidence in relation to items used during the commission of the crime, and then they were compared to Mr. Robinson.”
Agent Dave Hall with the Utah State Bureau of Investigation was called to the stand in the courtroom of Judge Tony Graf on Tuesday. Tyler Robinson’s defense attorney’s argued for the disqualification of the entire Utah County prosecutors’ office in the Charlie Kirk murder case.
Hall took the stand and was first questioned by prosecutors before being cross examined by Kathryn Nester.
Leftist parenting has reached a new low. The children of these deranged activists were already being subjected to indoctrination through their race and gender dogma, but now they are quite literally being brought into the streets to participate in riotous behavior.
Beginning on Saturday, footage of children attending riots in Portland, Oregon, began circulating on social media platform X.
Some look no older than 10 in the footage as one girl deals with effects of tear gas, telling a rioter, “Its burning.”
Dragging 7-year-olds to felony riots and calling it “raising awareness.” Peak liberal parenting.
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.
British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has admitted that he was aware that his mentor and former Ambassador to the United States, Lord Mandelson, had a relationship with convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein, but claimed that he was misled over the extent of the ties.
Taking to the dispatch box on Wednesday afternoon as he fights for his political life, Prime Minister Starmer attempted to shift blame for the disastrous decision to appoint veteran former Tony Blair spin doctor Lord Peter ‘Prince of Darkness’ Mandelson as his ambassador to Washington.
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
Prince Andrew’s fall from royalty continues.
Prince Andrew, now referred to as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor after his royal title was revoked, is leaving his royal residence after new details from the latest Epstein Files revealed he had a closer relationship with Epstein than he has led the public to believe.
One of the most disturbing release in the drop were photos of Andrew hunched over a woman lying on the floor.
Take a look at the photos here:
Prince Andrew’s Fresh Pics Are Absolutely Damning
Prince Andrew crouched over a woman on the floor, big grin, zero shame.
These fresh Epstein file photos just surfaced and they’re brutal.
How are you going to spin your way out of this one now, Andrew?

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.
