Chaos erupted at an ICE detention facility in Portland, Oregon after hundreds of protesters attempted to storm holding cells. Demonstrators were seen being tackled to the ground as officers deployed smoke bombs and tear gas to try and control the crowd yesterday. Dramatic footage posted on X by independent journalist Katie Daviscourt shows flares lighting up the night sky, as protesters clash with officers in riot gear who appeared to fire rubber bullets into the crowd. The demonstration occurred on the 28th day that protesters have been occupying the ICE facility. The mayhem Friday broke out just hours after the President signed his so-called 'big, beautiful bill' into law

To the officers protecting a federal facility and doing their jobs, Use lethal ammunition and German Shepard "crowd control" dogs against the violent protestors. Don't forget the powerful water hoses. The stacked-up pile of "smelly" carcasses in the Rose City should permeate into the sunny skies. Priceless. MAGA.

The powers at be should not mess around, should deploy more than enough law enforcement personnel to surround those Antifa criminals, arrest them, identify them, and criminally prosecute all who have violated the law.

There was no “carnage” at the planned “die in” as headlined at the Mail. If this riot occurred in Gaza or Syria or Iran real atrocities would have occurred.

Nothing speaks to a rowdy crowd quite like guards carrying those belt-fed shotguns used in prisons. It's LONG past due for the almost useless FBI/DOJ to come forth with indictments naming the leftist billionaires who fund and promote Antifa and other violent anti-American organizations in Europe and U.S., and arrest them and treat them like the insurrectionist scum they truly are.

I love it when the Brits try to explain US politics to Americans. The phrase ‘brutal Medicaid cuts’ is a false liberal talking point repeated by ignorant people who haven’t looked at the bill and don’t know what’s in it. The deportation sob stories all end up having a back story that isn’t quite so appealing. The Daily Mail writers aren’t allowed to criticize their own politicians. They would be arrested.

As lawmakers begin crafting the 12 annual appropriations bills to fund the federal government in fiscal year 2026, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., has implied that his party will refuse to cooperate in the process if Republicans revoke billions in funding from previous years. The Senate is set to vote on a rescissions package that narrowly passed the House in June and would cancel already appropriated federal funds for public broadcasting and some foreign aid programs. Republicans only need a majority vote for the legislation to pass. The Rescissions Act of 2025, compiled by the Office of Management and Budget, requests the cancellation of federal spending deemed wasteful

The Austin firefighters union will decide Tuesday whether to initiate a no-confidence vote against Fire Chief Joel Baker for allegedly waiting to send local firefighters to Kerr County to help with flood response. “We are disgusted with our fire chief,” the Austin Firefighters Association said in a Monday post on its Facebook page. “He needs to be held accountable and fired for his disgraceful dereliction of duty.” Association President Bob Nicks told the American-Statesman the Fire Department denied an informal request from the state for help on July 2 ahead of a storm that ended up killing at least 84 people. Another request on July 3 was also denied.

Here in North America, the United States and Canada are both fortunate in having an abundance of rich farmlands. Drive through northern Indiana, through the dairy country of Wisconsin, the wheatfields of Kansas, or the vast grazing lands of the Great Plains, all the way north to Alberta, and you'll see the great agricultural country that could feed the entire world. These are the fruited plains and the amber waves of grain that Katharine Lee Bates was writing about in "America the Beautiful." On Tuesday, Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins announced a new federal initiative to protect those lands—and keep the lands in the United States in American hands.

The I.R.S. said on Monday that churches and other houses of worship can endorse political candidates to their congregations, carving out an exemption in a decades-old ban on political activity by tax-exempt nonprofits. The agency made that statement in a court filing intended to settle a lawsuit filed by two Texas churches and an association of Christian broadcasters. The plaintiffs that sued the I.R.S. had previously asked a federal court in Texas to create an even broader exemption(snip).The agency said that if a house of worship endorsed a candidate to its congregants, the I.R.S. would view that not as campaigning but as a private matter, like “a family discussion concerning candidates.”

Flyers warning immigrants to "self-deport" are being distributed to immigrants at immigration courts including those in Phoenix. The flyers are generated by the U.S. Department of Justice, which oversees the nation's immigration court system, including immigration judges. The flyers, written in English and Spanish, are part of a broader effort by the Trump administration to pressure undocumented immigrants to self-deport amid recent ICE arrests at immigration courts and an expanding immigration crackdown and mass deportation agenda. Immigrant advocates say the flyers, titled "Message to Illegal Aliens: A Warning to Self-Deport," contain misleading information

The move is part of President Donald Trump’s efforts to curb illegal immigration and remove those already in the country. "It is clear that the Government of Honduras has taken all of the necessary steps to overcome the impacts of Hurricane Mitch, almost 27 years ago,” Noem added.

There will be no exceptions to this policy. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post Sunday evening. The threat comes after members of the BRICS group issued a declaration on Sunday condemning the U.S. increase in tariffs, as well as the strikes on Iran — all without mentioning Trump by name.

A high-altitude plateau on the Big Island is the only place in Hawaii where thousands of ground forces can practice firing live munitions. It’s also a place many Native Hawaiians consider the spiritual heart of the island. The U.S. military wants to keep training at this spot, called Pohakuloa, so it’s ready to quickly send troops to Asia and the Pacific. Its importance to the U.S. is only growing as China becomes more assertive, particularly regarding Taiwan. But the Army’s lease for state lands beneath a key part of the training range expires in 2029.

Jeffrey Epstein did not maintain a “client list,” the Justice Department acknowledged Monday as it said no more files related to the wealthy financier’s sex trafficking investigation would be made public despite promises from Attorney General Pam Bondi that had raised the expectations of conservative influencers and conspiracy theorists.The acknowledgment that the well-connected Epstein did not have a list of clients to whom underage girls were trafficked represents a public walk-back of a theory that the Trump administration had helped promote, with Bondi suggesting in a Fox News interview earlier this year that such a document was “sitting on my desk” for review.

None of us ever would have heard of Jeffrey Epstein had the government not brought him up. It was the government that brought charges against him. The government told us that he was “the most prolific child sex trafficker in history.” The government said he was “with intelligence.” The government cut him a sweetheart deal. The government was taken to court by “John Doe” over what the government called “client lists.” The government courts made a ruling about the “client lists” not being released. Senator Dick Durbin blocked the release of the “client list” in the legislative branch of the government. The government said it had “client lists” on its desk.

Remember this moment in 2019 when Democrats were asked to raise their hands if they supported treating border crossing as a civil issue aka decriminalize the border. Nearly ever hand went up. In retrospect, some Democrats are realizing this may have been a big mistake. Six years later, the party remains haunted by that tableau. It stands both as a vivid demonstration of a leftward policy shift on immigration that many prominent Democratic lawmakers and strategists now say they deeply regret, and as a marker of how sharply the country was moving in the other direction.

Why do voters keep electing Democrats responsible for so much urban decline and decay? What will break the left’s stranglehold on our once great cities? Is the situation simply hopeless?
