Joe Biden's FBI under Director Christopher Wray knew Brian Cole was the January 6 pipe bomber back in April, 2921, but for some reason chose not to take him into custody or charge him with crimes. Brian Cole, 30, of Woodbridge, Virginia, was taken into custody last Thursday and charged with use of an explosive device and attempted malicious destruction by means of explosive materials. Cole admitted to investigators that he planted pipe bombs at the RNC and DNC headquarters on January 5, the night before the Capitol riot.
Just like his genders, this Delaware Democrat likes his commemoration days both ways.
Rep. Sarah McBride, the country’s first transgender U.S. representative, used Sunday’s anniversary of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor that killed more than 2,000 Americans to promote a video celebrating Delaware’s status as the first state to ratify the Constitution.
It was trite, it was chatty, and it was a slap in the face to the country’s history, its military, and to the dwindling number of survivors of the attack that brought the United States into World War II. Check it out here, complete with Rep. McBride’s little joke about “identity.”
A woke Vermont school district hoisted a Somali flag on Friday, as Democrats around the country defend Somali migrants amid President Trump’s immigration crackdown and a growing fraud scandal in Minnesota’s Somali community.
“We are raising the Somali flag this week in honor of our Somali youth and families in Winooski and Vermont,” the Winooski School District posted to Facebook. “On Monday, we will be gathering to celebrate together and to learn more about our civil rights.” The Winooski School District told OutKick the Somali flag was raised on one of its three flagpoles. The American flag is on the highest mast, in accordance with the United States Flag Code,

The Department of Homeland Security has rolled out a new searchable website allowing Americans to see the names and faces of the “worst of the worst” criminal illegal aliens arrested across all 50 states since the start of the Trump administration.
Now, Americans from Springfield, Ohio, to San Diego to Boston can learn the identities of some of the illegal aliens Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents have detained in their community, and what convictions or criminal charges those individuals face.
“This new Worst of the Worst webpage allows every American to see for themselves the criminal illegal aliens that we are arresting, what crimes they committed,
Tensions between China and Japan escalated again over the weekend after two Chinese J-15 fighter jets allegedly aimed their radars at Japanese F-15 fighter jets near Okinawa, prompting Tokyo to lodge a formal protest against Beijing, with Canberra supporting Japan.
Japan’s Ministry of Defense said the episodes occurred on Saturday in international airspace southeast of Okinawa. The ministry said no Japanese aircraft were damaged and that the Chinese jets did not enter Japan’s territorial airspace.
Japanese Defense Minister Shinjiro Koizumi said on Sunday the radar illumination was a “dangerous act that exceeded the scope necessary for the safe flight of the aircraft.” Speaking alongside Australian Deputy Defense
Immigration Gone Wild
replies
It is hard now even for Democrats to defend illegal immigration, given that the Biden administration allowed in more than 10 million entrants. Among them were an estimated 500,000 criminals. No one believes that was wise or should ever be repeated. Worse, the message went out that there would be few, if any, deportations and no real ICE kinetic activity beyond the border. The world’s poor, sick, both law-abiding and criminal, young and old, understood that anyone could now enter the U.S. at will. Deterrence and legality were lost.

President Trump demanded an apology from “60 Minutes” over its misleading Hunter Biden laptop coverage and fumed about outgoing GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s combative interview with CBS’ Lesley Stahl in which she hinted that Republican colleagues mock him behind his back, calling her a “traitor” in an epic Truth Social rant.
“The only reason Marjorie ‘Traitor’ Brown (Green turns Brown under stress!) went BAD is that she was JILTED by the President of the United States (Certainly not the first time she has been jilted!),” Trump wrote Monday morning after the “60 Minutes” interview aired.
T]wo leaders have reshaped the strategic map with a clarity rarely seen in this era: United States President Donald J. Trump and United Arab Emirates President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan (MBZ).
MBZ's long-term project is not ideological and not transactional. It is developmental. His vision of governance is anchored in four pillars: modernity, competence, coexistence, and scientific advancement.
This is why the UAE has become a regional pioneer in space exploration, renewable energy, and peaceful nuclear development. It is why the country became the third in the world — after the United States and China — to invest at scale in artificial intelligence,
President Trump is expected on Monday to announce a $12 billion aid package for American farmers, moving to support a sector that's been hurt by tariffs and a U.S. trade war with China.
A senior administration official told CBS News that Mr. Trump will unveil the plan during a White House event, with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins expected to join Mr. Trump and several farmers at the announcement.
Roughly $11 billion of the government assistance is set aside for the Department of Agriculture's Farmer Bridge Assistance program, which the White House has said will offer one-time payments to farmers for row crops.

Happy Monday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. Anzaspwer felt that taquitos were a perversion of the purity of minimalist ideals.
Gosh, it seems like just last week that I was lamenting the grandstanding antics of one of the members of Congress from my home state. (This is where I wish I had come up with my good friend Stephen Green's "Editor's Note" bit; it's so much fun.) I believe that it was also last week that I wrote something about questioning why I always end up in places where I am not a good fit politically.
Following three days of negotiations in Florida (Thur, Fri, Sat) between President Trump emissaries Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, and Ukraine emissaries Rustem Umierov and Andrii Hnatov, the group then held a 2-hour phone call with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
No substantial progress was reported. However, military officials Umierov and Hnatov then flew to meet Zelenskyy in London where French President Emmanuel Macron, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz are assembled to discuss alternatives to ending the conflict.
President Joe Biden was warned by advisers that his immigration plans could lead to “chaos” at the US border — but he ignored them, a newly uncovered memo reveals.
His team doled out the advice to Biden when he was still campaigning against President Trump back in 2020, the New York Times reported.
“A potential surge could create chaos and a humanitarian crisis, overwhelm processing capacities and imperil the agenda of the new administration,” Biden’s advisers wrote.
The memo warned that a huge influx was possible given Biden’s approach, a backlog from the Trump administration, and COVID hardships.
Brazilian Senator Flavio Bolsonaro, son of jailed former President Jair Bolsonaro, announced this weekend that he would run for president in the 2026 election – but would step down from the campaign should his father be freed and allowed to run for a second term.
The younger Bolsonaro confirmed on social media on Friday that he would run for president with his father’s blessing, ending a period of uncertainty for Brazilian conservatives given multiple prominent potential candidates, including Flavio’s stepmother Michelle Bolsonaro and the conservative Governor Tarcísio de Freitas of Sao Paulo. Senator Bolsonaro asserted that he had discussed the presidential election with his father and that the former president had
This weekend, London officially turned on it’s Christmas tree lights… Revealing once again the most tired looking pathetic tree and decorations on the planet. The London Mayor Sadiq Khan was there, pretending to be impressed by a display into which less effort has gone than than your Dad’s half baked effort in the early 1980’s with 20 year old stuff scraped together from out of the attic. OK, we get it, it’s a “traditional” spruce from Norway. They’ve been sending one since 1947. But can they not send a better one? And get some better lights on it? Of course the replies are closed. We all know why.
Former House Rep. Colin Allred, D-Texas, is dropping out of the Lone Star State's Senate race, he announced on Monday. Allred's announcement comes as rumors swirl about progressive Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, potentially entering the fray as soon as late Monday afternoon.

Pete Hegseth “runs around on a stage talking about lethality and warrior ethos and killing people. … That’s not the message that needs to come from the Secretary of Defense,” complained Sen. Mark Kelly last week.The message, especially coming from a former Navy captain, is so bizarre it borders on satire. Nations have had organized armies since recorded history started around 3000 B.C. And, in the words of the late, great Rush Limbaugh, the whole point of having a military is to kill people and break things, even if that military is exclusively employed for defensive purposes.[snip] But Kelly’s message is more than just a dumb comment.

Mayor Eric Adams panned Mayor-Elect Mamdani’s plans to end police sweeps of homeless camps as “idealism colliding with realism” – and said the young upstart was going to have to get serious about governing soon.
“I appreciate the idealistic view he has of life because you need that as a mayor,” Adams told ABC7 in a Sunday interview at Gracie Mansion.
“But the realism is — imagine if we said that you are allowed to sleep on the streets of our city in tents and encampments with 230,000 people coming to our city,” he said. “You know what that would look like?

The exchange erupted over President Trump’s newly announced full pardon of former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández.
On November 28, 2025, President Trump announced he would grant a full and complete pardon to former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández, who was convicted in U.S. court on drug-trafficking and firearms charges.
Hernández, extradited in 2022 and sentenced to 45 years in federal prison, has long argued that the Biden DOJ politically targeted him using the coerced testimony of cartel members tied to Honduras’s radical leftist Libre Party.
The Trump administration will sweep Minneapolis seeking criminal illegal aliens after rampant fraud in Minnesota, White House Border Czar Tom Homan told CNN.
The interview follows Somalis in Minnesota taking $14 million from a program meant to help kids with autism.
CNN’s Dana Bash: “I’ve talked to several state and local officials who have said that the number of Somali immigrants that are living in the U.S. illegally [in Minneapolis] is very small… And this is about scaring people more than it is about arresting criminals.”
Border Czar Tom Homan: “Well, we just started…

Tucker Carlson has announced he is buying property in Qatar while denying ever taking money from the Gulf state.
The former Fox News host made the admission when he interviewed Qatari Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani at the Doha Forum on Sunday.
'I have been criticized as being a tool of Qatar, and I just want to say - which you already know - which is I have never taken anything from your country and don't plan to,' Carlson told the world leader. 'I am am, however, tomorrow buying a place in Qatar,' he then revealed.

Attorney Gregory Joseph has filed a Petition for Postconviction Relief seeking to vacate the 2021 second-degree murder conviction of former Minneapolis Department Officer Derek Chauvin related to the death of pseudo-saint George Floyd. (News of which you certainly missed because, despite its sensational assertions, it was largely swept under the rug by legacy media.)
Why now? As counsel expresses in a 71-page memorandum accompanying the petition, in the vain hope (to somewhat give away the conclusion here) that “removed from the hysteria of the day,” a court “can finally look at the facts

Obamacare subsidies are a tangled web of fraud, according to a new report from the General Accounting Office.
The report said insurance companies collected $94 million for people who were dead, one piece of what the Congressional Budget Office estimates to be $27 billion in annual Obamacare fraud, according to the National Pulse.
The GAO report said 58,000 Social Security numbers linked to advanced premium tax credits matched numbers in the Social Security death data. More than 7,000 individuals were found to have died before their coverage even began. In one case, one Social Security number was used to receive 125 insurance policies covering 26,000 days — the equivalent

Report Finds replies
The Council of American-Islamic Relations's (CAIR) political advocacy arm, CAIR Action, is operating "without the licenses, registrations, or legal authority required in any of the 22 states where it raises money or conducts political activity," an investigation shared with the Washington Free Beacon states. According to a watchdog group, CAIR's nationwide political machine has systematically evaded state and federal regulators in what may amount to an illicit fundraising scheme.
CAIR Action is incorporated in Washington, D.C., where it steers a nationwide political operation that solicits donations, endorses candidates, organizes voter influence campaigns, and maintains the infrastructure that powers its massive advocacy network. But CAIR Action "never obtained the Basic Business License
