Former New York Rep. George Santos is facing an 87-month prison sentence for his part in a fraud scheme.
The Justice Department detailed its case against Santos in a 26-page letter to United States District Judge Joanna Seybert. Eastern District of New York U.S. Attorney John J. Durham, who was appointed by the Trump administration, submitted the letter.
Durham is following up on an investigation spearheaded by Biden administration EDNY attorney Breon Peace, who saw Santos plead guilty to several charges, including wire fraud and aggravated identity theft in August 2024.

Parking App Data to Find Targets, Analysis Shows 3 replies
A dark web doxxing website targeting Tesla owners and allies of Elon Musk appears to be compiled from hacked data originally stolen from a massive ParkMobile app breach in 2021, according to records obtained by a data privacy group.
The site, known as DogeQuest, first appeared in March and publishes names, home addresses, contact details, and other personal information tied to Tesla drivers and Department of Government Efficiency staff. Marketed as a hub for anti-Musk “creative expressions of protest,” the platform has been linked to real-world vandalism and remains live on the dark web. Federal investigations into DogeQuest are already underway,
Allegedly, Barack Obama was going to take a step back from meddling in politics after the 2024 election, but he spoke at Hamilton College this week, and, of course, he had to weigh in on the new Trump administration. His stunning display of historical revisionism and self-righteous indignation would be comedic if it weren't so dangerous to our republic.
"Uh, let... Imagine if I had done any of this," Obama pontificated to his adoring audience, playing his favorite game of hypotheticals while conveniently ignoring his own track record. “Let, let, let me just... I, I, I just wanna be clear about this. I- i- i- ima- imagine that...
Former White House doctor Kevin O’Connor will be among those grilled by House Republicans for hiding President Joe Biden’s cognitive decline from the American public, Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-Texas) told The Post.
“Dr. Kevin O’Connor will absolutely, positively be implicated in the cover-up of this. He is a massive, massive part,” said Jackson, a physician by trade who served in the White House Medical Unit under three presidents before being elected to Congress, where he now chairs the House Intelligence Committee’s subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations
“I guarantee you Kevin O’Connor has medical information that the American people don’t have,” Jackson went on. “He was probably putting President Biden on lots of
Former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms (D) is preparing to launch a 2026 gubernatorial bid in Georgia, according to a Friday report from the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Bottoms served as a city council member and spent three years in the White House as a senior adviser during the Biden administration. She was also a close confidante of former Vice President Kamala Harris throughout her 2024 presidential campaign.

New York defrauding Medicaid: 'Large financial scheme' 4 replies
Rep. Eric Burlison, R-Mo., a member of the House Oversight Committee and DOGE task force, is urging Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel to investigate whether New York state is defrauding Medicaid with a "large financial scheme" involving matching payments for hospitals.
"Recent evidence suggests that for nearly two decades, the State of New York has deprived Nassau University Medical Center (NUMC) of more than $1 billion in Medicaid funds," Burlison wrote in a letter to America's top two law enforcement officials on Thursday.
"The state stands accused of violating
Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Manet wrote to President Donald Trump offering to drop tariff levels certain U.S. imports and negotiate.
"Cambodia proposes to negotiate with Your Honorable’s administration at the earliest convenient time and wishes to request that your esteemed government consider postponing the above-mentioned tariff implementation," he wrote on Friday.
"I would like to inform Your Honorable President that the existing practice of Cambodia’s maximum tariff rate tops at 35%. In expression of our good faith and in spirit of strengthening our bilateral trade relations, Cambodia is committed to promote U.S. based product imports with an immediate reduction of 19 product categories from our maximum 35% tariff bound rate to 5%
The more we learn about Kamala Harris’ disastrous campaign, the more entertaining it gets. It’s also a little baffling. The core of her team was seasoned political operatives from the Obama operation who knew how to win elections. Then again, that was a different Democratic Party, one not soaked in far-left wokeism. Democrats knew how to reach voters to win elections. Now, that coalition is dead, as the youth flocked to the GOP, union workers went MAGA, and immigrant voting communities swung 23 points toward the GOP. There was no way Democrats were going to win. Neither Kamala Harris nor Joe Biden was going to beat Donald Trump.
Jaguar Land Rover will pause shipments of its Britain-made cars to the United States for a month, it said on Saturday, as it considers how to mitigate the cost of President Donald Trump's 25% tariff.
Jaguar Land Rover, which is owned by India's Tata Motors (TAMO.NS), opens new tab, confirmed the temporary export suspension after the Times newspaper reported the plan.
"As we work to address the new trading terms with our business partners, we are taking some short-term actions, including a shipment pause in April, as we develop our mid- to longer-term plans," JLR said in an emailed statement.
President Donald Trump and his team have been cracking down hard on border enforcement and on the worst illegal migrants still in the country — great.
But a longer-term fix — also of great use in speeding deportations now — requires cleaning up the mess of US “law” regarding the supposed rights of border-jumpers, as well as our obsolete asylum system.
Gridlocked not just on party lines but by ideologues and interest-group lobbying, Congress has failed for decades to update these laws; instead, activist judges and presidential decrees have created “legal” roadblocks to evicting people here illegally.
President Donald Trump‘s sweeping tariffs, announced Wednesday, have received strong support from the U.S. shrimp industry, which sees them as an opportunity for survival.
After peaking in the 1990s, the U.S. shrimp industry has faced a precipitous decline over the past 15 years. Cheaper imports of farmed shrimp, facing no import duties, have undercut U.S. wild-caught shrimp. The U.S. shrimping industry has lost half of its market value since 2021, according to the Southern Shrimp Alliance, ending the businesses of many.

The artist behind a portrait of Donald Trump in the Colorado State Capitol says her career could be in tatters now that the president has besmirched it on social media.
Sarah Boardman’s painting of the president had hung in the Denver building for six years before Trump called it “purposefully distorted” and “truly the worst” on his Truth Social platform in January, prompting state lawmakers to yank it off the wall.
Now the artist’s 41-year career “is in danger of not recovering” from the backlash, Boardman said in a statement on her website on Saturday.
Former President Obama made an appearance at Hamilton College this week and tried to take some cheap shots at the Trump administration.
He was clearly trying to echo the talking points currently being pushed by his party and the media.
For some reason, Obama thinks no one remembers anything about his presidency.
From NBC News: Former President Barack Obama said he is “deeply concerned” with some of the actions that President Donald Trump and his administration have taken and seemed to call out the Republican Party
Elie Mystal, a far-left columnist for The Nation, is so petrified of the Trump administration snatching him off the street because of his articles that he has allegedly hired security to keep him safe.
This, according to Mystal himself.
The author of the new book "Bad Law: Ten Popular Laws That Are Ruining America" appeared with Charlamagne the God on "The Breakfast Club" late last week and promptly demonstrated little to no grasp of current law.
Mystal is not an illegal immigrant (he was born in Queens, and his father was a prominent political figure in Suffolk County, New York—a legal Haitian migrant), nor does he have a student visa.
Wall Street’s bloodbath spilled over into a second day on Friday as the Dow Jones Industrial Average plummeted by more than 2,200 points after China unveiled stiff retaliatory taxes to President Trump’s tariffs.
The Dow tanked 2,231 points — a day after suffering a 1,679-point drop, its previous worst session since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. The two-day selloff wiped out $6.4 trillion in market value.
Thousands of protesters gathered for various so-called “Hands Off!” rallies throughout the United States to protest President Donald Trump and Elon Musk.
A video posted to X by ABC News showed “thousands of protesters” who had “flooded the streets” in Boston, Massachusetts, as part of a “Hands Off!” Rally. Breitbart News’s Sean Moran previously reported that protesters were slated to gather across the nation on Saturday for the “Hands Off!” rallies to tell Trump and Musk to take their “Hands Off!” people’s healthcare, Social Security, “civil rights,” and their freedom and education.
As we told you earlier Saturday, an abortion fan was arguing with a pro-life advocate who was reporting for advocacy group Live Action when the woman suddenly launched a barrage of surprise punches—right to the face—stunning the 23-year-old journalist and leaving her bloodied. The victim, Savannah Craven Antao, said she’s been getting flashbacks from the attack, which she deemed emblematic of the entire pro-choice movement.
Warning: Violent imagery. (X Video) Now the attacker has identified herself on social media as Bronx resident Brianna Rivers, and she gave an “apology” that made it sound like she wasn’t sorry in the slightest.
The attorney for Karmelo Anthony, the 17-year-old accused of murdering football star Austin Metcalf at a Texas track meet, insists he doesn’t have “any reason” to think the killing “wasn’t in self defense” — and will request the teen’s bond be lowered from $1,000,000.[snip]
he was charged with fatally stabbing Metcalf, also 17, and leaving him to die in his twin brother’s arms during the athletic event in Frisco Wednesday morning.
After briefly meeting with the teenager for the first time on Friday afternoon, Anthony’s attorney Deric Walpole told NBC Dallas-Fort Worth that at this point in time he believes his client acted in self defense
Remember during President Trump's speech to the Joint Session of Congress in early March, when Rep. Al Green (D-TX) behaved so badly that House Speaker Mike Johnson had to instruct the Sergeant at ArmsThen, he held court outside the chamber with a gaggle of reporters, who allowed him to spout nonsense about Trump and the Republicans planning to cut Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security.
When one of the journalists asked Rep. Green if that was the only reason he decided to disrupt Pres. Trump's address, the Texas Democrat used it as an excuse to share an astounding non sequitur. to kick Green out of the chamber?

Democratic strategist James Carville in a Friday video demanded a “reckoning” for entities that have collaborated with President Donald Trump’s administration.
Carville alluded to France during World War II when some women faced humiliation, including head-shaving, for allegedly collaborating with Nazis. The strategist, with an empty or near-empty wine glass on his nightstand, said he does not believe Trump “collaborators” should be assaulted but said they must at least face an “intellectual reckoning.”

Primary Poll, Signaling Shift in Democratic Power 20 replies
In a stunning revelation, a new poll shows Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) leading Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) by double digits in a hypothetical head-to-head New York primary matchup. This surprising shift in the political landscape highlights the growing power of the far-left faction within the Democratic Party as Ocasio-Cortez continues to build her base among younger, more progressive voters. Schumer, long seen as the establishment figure in New York and national politics, now faces a growing challenge from within his own party, signaling that even the most entrenched political figures could be vulnerable.
New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) signed new controls into law last week, including one that allows credit cards to track ammunition purchases.
She described the ammunition control as one that “[refines] how credit card companies track purchases at gun dealerships.”
Hochul noted, “This gives law enforcement the opportunity to find out exactly who may be stockpiling ammunition. And this is an indicator that something untoward could be happening, so it’s an important data point for us to have.” North Country Now pointed out the credit card tracking will occur via the use of a new merchant code,
