On Monday’s broadcast of Bloomberg’s “Balance of Power,” Rep. Christian Menefee (D-TX), who was sworn in on Monday evening, discussed ICE and said he backs “fully abolishing the agency. I think you have to rip it down to the studs.” And “I want to abolish it. I think you rip it down to the studs, and when it comes back, it shouldn’t be ICE anymore.”

Co-host Joe Mathieu asked, “Well, let’s get real about what should happen. You said at your victory party that it’s time to tear ICE up from the roots. Is that abolishing the agency or reforming it?”

Menefee answered, “I support fully abolishing the agency. I think you have to rip it down to the studs.”

Do you recall Ed Martin? He was anticipated to be the next United States Attorney for the District of Columbia, until Senator Thom Tillis (R-NC) derailed his full-time nomination; he had been serving in an interim capacity until May 2025. But he wasn’t gone for long; he was named a pardon attorney and helmed the weaponization task force inside the Trump Justice Department. He was the point of the lance on the ongoing probe into former President Biden’s use of the autopen.

Traitorous Senate Republicans joined Democrats to keep funding the U.S. African Development Foundation, even after the agency’s own leadership acknowledged corruption and DOGE flagged it for fraud.

“The USADF Director of Financial Management’s fraudulent acts betrayed the trust of the American people,” said Acting Assistant Inspector General for Investigations Sean M. Bottary. “As the Inspector General with continued oversight jurisdiction over U.S.-funded foreign assistance, we will utilize our global investigative reach to aggressively detect and disrupt those who defraud taxpayer dollars programmed overseas.”

Wait, the Minneapolis Police Are Giving the Go-Ahead for These Insane Anti-ICE Checkpoints?– townhall.com

Minneapolis is a warzone. It’s been that way since an ICE agent shot Renee Good on January 7, after she rammed into him with her car. On January 24, Alex Pretti was shot by Border Patrol agents—both people were interfering with police actions, and their reckless actions got them killed. They weren’t executed. They were morons who did the equivalent of looking down the barrel of a loaded gun.

Still, the left-wing lynch mobs, most of them exclusively white crusty boomers and shrill progressive women, have done everything they could to disrupt ICE raids. They have an elaborate system of encrypted chats that coordinate unlawful interference operations to enforce federal immigration law. They’re psychos. And now, we have these checkpoints. These clowns block cars to run a search on people’s license plates.

In a step toward accountability, a grand jury indicted former CNN host Don Lemon over his involvement in a leftist-led storming of a Minnesota church earlier this month. The indictment led to Lemon’s arrest at the hands of federal authorities on Friday morning.

“At my direction, early this morning federal agents arrested Don Lemon, Trahern Jeen Crews, Georgia Fort, and Jamael Lydell Lundy, in connection with the coordinated attack on Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota,” Attorney General Pam Bondi announced in an X post.

Lemon’s attorney Abbe Lowell also confirmed the arrest of his client. In a statement, Lowell claimed that Lemon was detained Thursday evening while covering the Grammy Awards in Los Angeles, California and that his “constitutionally protected” conduct in the aforementioned church storming “was no different than what he has always done” as a media figure.

U.S. District Judge Katherine M. Menendez, a Biden appointee, stated in her decision that the plaintiffs had not met their burden to justify the extraordinary remedy of halting the operation based on the Tenth Amendment. She emphasized that the court was not making a final determination on the merits or commenting on the wisdom of the operation, but focused solely on the request for immediate relief.

Elon Musk is once again opening his checkbook to influence American politics, pouring millions into Republican efforts to hold Congress in the 2026 midterm elections, according to new campaign finance disclosures reported by both Newsmax and Politico, despite flirting with the idea of creating a third party last year. 

Politico reported that Musk “poured $10 million into two major Republican super PACs at the end of last year,” splitting the donations evenly between the Congressional Leadership Fund and the Senate Leadership Fund, “two groups that aim to help the GOP keep control of Congress this year.” The Tesla and SpaceX CEO gave $5 million to each group in December, marking his second round of contributions to both super PACs during the current election cycle.

“It was Musk’s second round of donations to both groups this cycle, having previously given in June,” Politico noted, adding that those earlier donations came “amid his feud with Trump.”

(LifeSiteNews) — President Donald Trump made countless parents, teachers, and school officials happy this past Wednesday when he issued an inspiring proclamation celebrating National School Choice Week.

Published on January 28, the declaration not only commemorates the 250th anniversary of American independence but also reaffirms the core principle that parents, not school bureaucrats or far left activists, have the natural right to shape their children’s destinies.

National School Choice Week was started in the early 2010s to raise awareness for parental choice in education. It runs from January 25-31. Homeschooling, charter schools, voucher programs, education savings accounts, and other individualized initiatives are some of the goals of the movement, which has grown from a grassroots to a nationwide community.

“What bothers me most about the City of Seattle is the failure to accept responsibility,” said attorney Evan Oshan, representing the Mays Estate.

A King County jury has found the City of Seattle negligent and liable for the 2020 death of 16-year-old Antonio Mays Jr., who was fatally shot in the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone (CHAZ), also known as the Capitol Hill Organized Protest (CHOP). The verdict, delivered three-plus weeks after a month-long trial at the King County Courthouse presided over by Judge O’Donnell, stems from a wrongful death lawsuit filed by the Mays Estate accusing the city of negligence in its handling of the zone, which protesters occupied for three weeks amid nationwide unrest following George Floyd’s death.

Transgender Who Threatened Rep. Mace Now Hit with Attempted Murder Charges– www.newsbusters.org

A biologically-male transgender member of the domestic terrorist group Antifa – who was not prosecuted when he posted an implicit death threat against South Carolina Republican Rep. Nancy Mace last May – is now in a women’s prison in Oregon and facing charges of attempted murder.

“This blood is on the hands of every prosecutor who looked at this threat and looked away. I pray for the safety of the women he’s housed with,” Rep. Mace said in a statement Wednesday, reacting to the news and recounting the death threat made against her by “a transgender named ‘Rem Heathen’ whose real name is Michael Richard Fadich, the Antifa violent extremist”:

“In May 2025, Fadich posted a graphic on Instagram depicting a gun pointed directly at Rep. Mace’s face. The message was unmistakable: he wanted her dead.

“The Office of Rep. Mace reported this threat. Prosecutors did nothing. Now, eight months later, he is charged with attempted murder after allegedly shooting someone in Portland just last month. A man is in the hospital because the system failed to stop a violent extremist when it had the chance.”

In a brief video clip that resurfaced on Saturday and quickly went viral, Boston’s far-left Mayor Michelle Wu summed up what no doubt many of her fellow leftists take to be axiomatically true. If it even came close to being implemented, it would destroy the United States utterly, but after all, what do leftists care about preserving what they think of as a racist, imperialist entity existing on stolen land? And so as far as they’re concerned, the destruction of the nation wouldn’t be a bug, but a feature.

As Slay News previously reported, the millions of pages released Friday include emails in which Epstein makes salacious claims that Gates begged him to obtain antibiotics so he could secretly dose his wife to conceal sexually transmitted diseases he allegedly contracted from “Russian girls.”

According to the DOJ-released files, Epstein discussed helping Gates obtain drugs “in order to deal with consequences of sex with Russian girls,” as well as facilitating illicit relationships with married women.
