The defense team for an illegal alien accused of killing 27-year-old Washington State Trooper Christopher Gadd last year failed to get the case thrown out. The defense claimed prosecutors had colluded with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in violation of Washington’s sanctuary state law.
In March 2024, 34-year-old illegal alien Raul Benitez Santana of Mexico, who had had several run-ins with the law, was arrested and charged with vehicular homicide in connection with Gadd’s death.
Prosecutors claim that Santana, while driving high and drunk, crashed into Gadd, who was on the shoulder of an interstate in Snohomish County, killing him. Gadd left behind his wife Cammryn and their young daughter.

Americans celebrating Memorial Day by hitting the road will likely be paying the cheapest gas prices since 2003.
GasBuddy, a fuel savings platform, said Tuesday that it forecasts the national average price of gasoline to be $3.08 per gallon on Memorial Day. That would make it the cheapest since 2021 in nominal terms. After adjusting for inflation, it would be the lowest since 2003.
This is not expected to be short-lived. Prices of gasoline are expected to average around $3.02 per gallon between Memorial Day and Labor Day, with prices falling below three dollars on some days.

RedState editor Bob Hoge reported Monday on “Guardian Angel,” the brainchild of U.S. Attorney for Los Angeles Bill Essayli, who was hand-picked by President Donald Trump from the California Assembly for just this type of action and oversight. Under Guardian Angel, Essayli has organized a federal task force made up of ICE, FBI, HSI, DEA, and ATF. The combined agencies work from an office in Downtown L.A., and they do a daily scan of criminal databases that contain fingerprint identification to isolate illegal aliens jailed throughout Southern California who have previously been deported from the U.S.

During the campaign and since his inauguration, President Trump has promised the construction of a Golden Dome missile and drone defense system to cover the continental United States. On Tuesday, the president, flanked by Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and Space Force General Michael Guetlein, announced details of what will comprise the Golden Dome as well as the implementation plan.

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) beclowned himself once again after criticizing President Donald Trump for prosecuting a Democratic lawmaker for allegedly assaulting ICE agents at a detention facility.
Swalwell’s outrage is centered on a recent announcement from US Attorney Alina Habba that she intends to prosecute Rep. LaMonica McIver over the fracas that occurred at Delaney Hall earlier this month.
In a whiny post on X, Swalwell said that Trump crossed a “RED LINE” and that Democrats “must take whatever we’ve done before to show dissent and go ONE RUNG HIGHER,” whatever that means. He then threatened Habba, telling her to “save your bul****t documents

What a remarkable coincidence that Joe Biden’s wranglers discovered he had cancer right in the middle of the revelations about how he was totally senile and everyone around him, including his very real doctor wife, covered it up. Yeah, right. His puppet masters knew, even if that human rutabaga didn’t. Stage IV prostate cancer doesn’t sneak up on you. It’s easy to detect. I know my PSA. It’s .07. I got it tested a couple of weeks ago. I get it tested every year. Weird that I have better medical care than the President of the United States, right? But you don’t believe that. And I don’t believe that.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has ordered the Pentagon to launch an investigation into former President Joe Biden’s botched military withdrawal from Afghanistan.
Hegseth released a memo on Tuesday noting that “President Biden’s administration led a chaotic withdrawal of U.S. military and embassy officials from Afghanistan that led to the deaths of 13 U.S. Service members and 170 civilians in a suicide bombing at the Kabul International Airport’s Abbey Gate.
The defense secretary further explained, “The Department of Defense has an obligation, both to the American people and to the warfighters who sacrificed their youth in Afghanistan, to get to the facts.
