The new CIA assessment released this week is nothing short of a bombshell—a long-overdue confirmation of what conservative media has been saying for years: The Obama administration, with the eager help of its top intelligence brass, orchestrated an unprecedented operation to cripple Donald Trump’s presidency before it even began. This isn’t some fevered speculation or partisan rumor.
The CIA’s own review lays out, in damning detail, how former CIA Director John Brennan, former DNI James Clapper, and former FBI Director James Comey took “unusual” and direct control over the infamous Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) that became the cornerstone of the Russia collusion hoax.

Hackers working on behalf of the Iranian government are likely to target industrial control systems used at water treatment plants and other critical infrastructure to retaliate against recent military strikes by Israel and the US, federal government agencies are warning. One cybersecurity company says many US-based targets aren't adequately protected against the threat.
“Based on the current geopolitical environment, Iranian-affiliated cyber actors may target US devices and networks for near-term cyber operations,” an advisory jointly published by the The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, FBI, Department of Defense Cyber Crime Center, and the National Security Agency stated.

Representative Maxwell Frost (D-FL) said Tuesday on MSNBC’s “The Briefing” that President Donald Trump’s “big, beautiful” domestic policy package passed by the Senate has at least 20 Republican Representatives who are currently no votes.
Frost said, “We’re hearing that there’s about 20 Republicans could be a little bit more –”
Host Jen Psaki said, “Twenty.”
Frost continued, “Twenty Republicans that as of now are no.”
Psaki said, “They can only lose three.”
Frost said, “They can only, they can lose 3 or 4 and it’s done, and Massie — he’s already one of them. So there’s three more to go. We hear this about roughly

Have you noticed that liberals are still clinging to the delusion that Republican voters are turning on Donald J. Trump? These claims have been floating around for weeks, and yet, the simple truth of the matter is that this is just a fantasy. The latest data blows that narrative to pieces—and even CNN was forced to admit it.
CNN anchor Sara Sidner brought in chief data analyst Harry Enten to break down the numbers, and what he revealed left no room for doubt.
“We’re going to look at the 'strongly approved' numbers. So, this isn’t just Republicans who like Donald Trump. This is Republicans who love Donald Trump

President Donald Trump’s determined use of the Alien Enemies Act to enable fast-track deportations is likely to get approved by a three-judge appeals court panel, say media reports.
Under the headline, “Appeals court seems likely to back Trump’s deportations under wartime law,’ the Washington Post wrote:
“Can you give me a Supreme Court case that says a federal court can countermand the chief executive on a decision in an armed conflict?” Judge Andrew S. Oldham challenged Lee Gelernt

Chalk up another win for team commonsense after 82-year-old Julie Jaman won a $65,000 settlement because she refused to be quiet about a man being in her women’s locker room and was subsequently banned from using her local YMCA pool in Washington.
In a statement from the Center for American Liberty, the non-profit group that defends the civil liberties of Americans, said Jaman’s settlement was a “major victory for free speech and civil liberties.”
“Julie Jaman has reached a $65,000 settlement in her lawsuit against the City of Port Townsend and the Olympic Peninsula YMCA after being permanently banned

When he's not assisting with taking out Iran's nuclear capabilities, revoking visas from those who support terrorism, or helping the president broker peace in Africa, he's looking after your tax dollars.
"The era of government-sanctioned inefficiency is OVER. From now on, our foreign assistance programs will be accountable to the American taxpayer," Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced on X today. The post was accompanied by a lengthy Substack essay called "Make Foreign Aid Great Again."
It appears that USAID is officially dead.

The ambush and deaths of those Idaho firefighters, responding to the brush fire, were pretty heartbreaking to cover this past Sunday night. For those who live in the area, it had to be a frightening experience, for not only was there an apparent homicidal lunatic roaming their remote area, but it also looked as if there might be an uncontrolled fire rampaging through their neighborhoods thanks to him.
...Canfield Mountain, a popular hiking and biking area just outside Coeur d’Alene, became a war zone on Sunday. Its thick vegetation and complex trail system presented both tactical challenges and vulnerabilities for those responding to the emergency.

Paramount Global has reached a settlement with Donald Trump in his lawsuit against CBS News, clearing a path for the media company’s long-delayed merger with Skydance Media.
The settlement, announced at close to midnight Tuesday on the East Coast, calls for Paramount to pay $16 million. Notably, it does not involve a formal apology by the company over its handling of a 60 Minutes interview. Trump sued CBS News and its parent company, Paramount, for $20 billion over the promotion of the interview last fall with former Vice President Kamala Harris, Trump’s opponent in the presidential election.

President Donald Trump revoked sanctions on Syria Monday in an executive order, a month after he met with Syria’s interim President, Ahmed al-Sharaa, in Saudi Arabia.
Trump’s order lifts sanctions on Syria, although sanctions on former dictator “Bashar al-Assad, his associates, human rights abusers, drug traffickers, persons linked to chemical weapons activities, ISIS or its affiliates, and Iranian proxies” are still in effect, according to a fact sheet from the White House.
The White House notes in its fact sheet that the move is to support Syria’s “path to stability and peace.” Secretary of State Marco Rubio is tasked with evaluating “suspending sanctions, either in whole or in part

Harvard University violated federal civil rights law by failing to protect Jewish and Israeli students, the Trump administration found after an investigation by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The administration is now threatening to cut off all funding to the university if action is not taken to address the violation.
HHS’ Office for Civil Rights (OCR) found Harvard to be in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, which prohibits discrimination based on race and ethnicity. The university has been a “willful participant in anti-Semitic harassment of Jewish students, faculty, and staff,” the agency wrote in a letter to Harvard president Alan Garber. “Failure to institute
