More than 100 criminal cases at Boston Municipal Court have been dismissed as Massachusetts defendants go without lawyers in the wake of an attorney work stoppage.
Virtually all bar advocates — private lawyers hired by the state to represent people who can't afford an attorney — are no longer accepting district court cases due to a pay dispute with the state. The Lavallee Protocol mandates that defendants who do not have attorneys within 45 days are to have the cases against them dismissed without prejudice. "The case dismissals today, with many more expected in coming days and weeks, present a clear and continuing threat to public safety ...
Authorities in Bermuda said Tuesday that they arrested four U.S. cruise ship passengers accused of drug possession.
Police said in a statement that the suspects had a “significant quantity of illegal drugs” including cannabis and carfentanil, which experts say is 100 times more potent than fentanyl and is used to tranquilize elephants.
“This seizure may have prevented a potential tragedy,” said acting Detective Superintendent Derricka Burns.
The suspects also were accused of possessing vape pens and suspected THC gummies.
Bermuda police said security officers aboard a Carnival cruise ship had detained the suspects.
California’s new $20-per-hour minimum wage for fast food workers has resulted in a significant decline in employment in that sector, leading to 18,000 fewer jobs than would have been the case otherwise.
That’s according to a new paper released by the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) this month, which said:
We analyze the effect of California’s $20 fast food minimum wage, which was enacted in September 2023 and went into effect in April 2024, on employment in the fast food sector. In unadjusted data from the Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages, we find that employment in California’s fast food sector declined by 2.7 percent
An appeals court has overturned a New Jersey sanctuary law that attempted to ban state and local agencies, as well as private contractors, from partnering with the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to detain illegal aliens in detention centers.
On Tuesday, the Third Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that New Jersey’s law, known as AB 5207, “interferes with the federal government’s core power to enforce immigration laws” by banning state and local agencies and private contractors from working with ICE to operate detention centers for illegal aliens.
“New Jersey is on the wrong side of that line. It dislikes some of the federal government’s immigration tools,
A little boy in Newaygo County, Michigan, was pulled back from the brink of death on Saturday thanks to the quick action of a state trooper.
After a call came in about the four-year-old not breathing after he was found face down in water, Michigan State Police (MSP) Trooper Casey Deater arrived at the scene on East 88th Street, WWMT reported on Tuesday.
During a recent interview, Deater told WWJ the child was pulled out of the water near a dock and “I just remember running as fast as I could” with a device used for CPR. [Tweets]
The trooper said the child was unresponsive,
The Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents have arrested an illegal alien with a lengthy rap sheet, totaling 21 prior criminal convictions.
On Tuesday, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officials announced the arrest of several illegal aliens, including 52-year-old Federico Fong-Nunez of Mexico.
Fong-Nunez has been convicted of 21 different crimes in Boulder, Colorado, including burglary, aggravated assault, and felony menacing.
“President Trump and Secretary Noem have unleashed ICE to target the worst of the worst. Our brave law enforcement is facing an 830% increase in assaults against them and yet they continue to arrest violent criminals and drug traffickers every single day,”
The US Senate on Tuesday voted 52-48 to advance Emil Bove’s confirmation to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals.
Toxic RINO Lisa Murkowski joined the Democrats and vote ‘no.’
The full floor vote will happen this week. A simple majority vote is needed to confirm Bove. [Tweet]
Politico reported:
Senate Republicans cleared a key procedural hurdle to advance Emil Bove’s confirmation to a seat on the Third Circuit.
The Senate voted 50-48 Tuesday afternoon to proceed with Bove’s nomination,
US Attorney General Pam Bondi promptly fired Alina Habba’s replacement after a group of district court judges voted to oust Habba as interim US Attorney of New Jersey.
A group of federal judges on Tuesday declined to extend Alina Habba’s term as interim US Attorney of New Jersey after Democrat Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries launched a pressure campaign to oust her.
Alina Habba’s term as interim US Attorney expires on Friday at 11:59 pm.
Hakeem Jeffries called on federal district court judges appointed by Obama and Biden to remove Alina Habba over her decision to indict Rep. LaMonica McIver.
President Donald Trump announced Tuesday he had reached a settlement with CBS and Paramount triggered by a 60 Minutes interview with Vice President Kamala Harris. 'We have just achieved a BIG AND IMPORTANT WIN in our Historic Lawsuit against 60 Minutes, CBS, and Paramount,' Trump wrote on Truth Social. 'Just like ABC and George Slopadopoulos, CBS and its Corporate Owners knew that they defrauded the American People, and were desperate to settle.' Trump said that Paramount/CBS/60 Minutes paid $16 million in the settlement and anticipated an additional $20 million from the new owners of CBS in advertising, PSAs or similar programming.
Here's a common tactic of the legacy media: Find an activist with credentials in a field they haven't worked with in years, someone with a laundry list of made-up grievances, someone fundamentally bitter and angry, and have them speculate on some personal aspect of a person they've never met or spoken with.
Case in point: CNN recently trotted out a Dr. Chris Pernell, a left-wing activist who hasn't practiced medicine since her residency, to remote-diagnose President Trump's chronic venous insufficiency. It should come as no surprise that she immediately started crying the president's doom.
The Justice Department recently acknowledged that it is conducting a criminal investigation of both former CIA Director John Brennan and former FBI Director James Comey. The current CIA director, John Ratcliffe, made a criminal referral to the DOJ concerning Brennan. Many believe that referral involves perjury on Brennan’s part when testifying before Congress or during Special Counsel John Durham’s inquiry.
The precise criminal offenses concerning Comey are not clear at this point. But there was certainly plenty of malfeasance and misfeasance by both these agency heads starting with the inception of the Russia collusion fiasco.
On Friday, a local newspaper in Allentown, PA, published a story making a salacious claim against the Trump administration. According to "family members," ICE had arrested and roughed up their 82-year-old grandfather, a legal asylum holder, before deporting him to Guatemala.
The Morning Call claimed that Luis Leon was trying to replace his lost green card at a local USCIS office when the Chilean national was deported to the wrong country, where he ended up in a hospital recovering from pneumonia. Further, the family said Leon's wife was kept in custody, in terrible conditions, for 10 hours before being released.
Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) vowed that President Trump’s threats to primary him will “backfire tremendously” and ultimately lead to Republicans losing their House majority in the 2026 midterms.
“Well, they’ve spent $1.8 million against me so far in my congressional district. I think it has had very little effect, but they are trying to beat up on me to keep everyone else in line here and I think it is not working. I think what’s going to happen, this will be a referendum on whether the executive branch controls the legislative branch,” Massie said during a Tuesday interview with NBC News.
A shocking report from FOX 11 Los Angeles concluded that not a single dollar raised for victims of the California wildfires this year actually went to the victims.
According to FOX 11, over $100 million was raised for families in Southern California who lost everything in the wildfires. Many families left their homes with the clothes on their backs and a few belongings. After the fires subsided and they returned to their properties, all that was left was rubble.
Journalist Sue Pascoe lost her home in the fires. One of her readers, who also lost their home,
As President Donald Trump continues to carry out his mass deportation of illegal aliens, new jobs for native born Americans are increasing and wages are going up.
"Wages for everyday Americans continue to rise, with real average hourly earnings up by nearly 4% over the past year — far higher than economists’ expectations. Since President Trump took office, real disposable personal income has risen at a 7.5% annualized pace — more than three times the pace than the final year of the Biden Administration," the White House released last month. "Native-born American workers now account for ALL job gains
Let’s be honest here: The Democratic Party is a train wreck, and famed party strategist James Carville is screaming it from the rooftops. I’ve given him a lot of flak for torching his credibility by confidently predicting a Kamala Harris victory—but credit where it’s due; this time, he’s not wrong.
In a scathing New York Times op-ed, Carville called his party a “cracked-out clown car”—and let’s face it, he hit the nail on the head. The Democrats are bleeding voters, hemorrhaging credibility, and spiraling into irrelevance with no clear leader or message. Carville’s attempt to patch this sinking ship is bold but delusional, and it’s a perfect snapshot of a party
It’s always amusing to me who Democrats view as being their “star” at any given moment. That the person the party has chosen to elevate changes daily tells you just how screwed they know they are. As such, I figured I’d highlight who they’re flying as a test candidate from time to time, as they pop up like a cold sore on a hooker. This week it’s Secretary Mayor Pete Buttigieg.
That Pete Buttigieg was ever a serious candidate, let alone the winner of the 2020 Iowa Caucuses, is a testament to the power of identity politics in the Democratic Party.
The largest employer in the United States isn't a Fortune 100 company like Alphabet, Amazon or Apple. It's the federal government − and that's a problem.
Thankfully, President Donald Trump continues to slash bureaucratic bloat. On July 11, the administration sent layoff notices to more than 1,300 State Department workers, and three days later, the Supreme Court allowed Trump
to move forward with plans to gut the Department of Education.
That's bad news for government employees, but great for taxpayers, especially given the Education Department's expense − $268 billion in the last fiscal year − and its lack of effectiveness.

Key Russia Hoax Claim replies
Top officials working on an intelligence community analysis about Russia’s interference in the 2016 election were overruled by CIA Director John Brennan, according to records exclusively reviewed by The Federalist. The records are related to ongoing criminal investigations into Brennan and other top intelligence officials for their roles in launching the Russia collusion hoax.
The dispute was over the “key judgment” in a January 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) that Russia had interfered in the election specifically because Putin and the Russian government “aspired to help President-elect Trump’s election chances.”
The senior intelligence officials pointed out the lack of evidence to substantiate
Bernice King, the youngest daughter of the late Martin Luther King Jr., weighed in on President Trump’s decision to release hundreds of thousands of documents related to her father’s assassination, while urging them to unveil the files tied to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein.
King’s message came on Monday, shortly after Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard published over 230,000 pages of information related to King’s death in 1968, including details about the FBI’s investigation, memos about the case and the manhunt of shooter James Earl Ray.
“Now, do the Epstein files,” she wrote on social platform X, attaching a photo of her father giving a side-eye expression.
The Trump administration is not going to sit silently by as ICE agents are doxed and endangered by radical leftist activists.
Activists continue to dox Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers online, with some radicals even developing websites and platforms to dox many agents and their families quickly. ICESpy is one such site that allows people to upload photos of individuals and assess if they match ICE agents’ profiles on LinkedIn. The personal information allows activists to target certain individuals and their families as part of the ongoing Democrat domestic terrorism.
ICE posted on X, “Run a website doxing and endangering ICE officers and their families? The law’s coming for you.

WASHINGTON — A federal judiciary panel — mainly made up of judges picked by Presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden — voted not to extend Alina Habba as President Trump’sNew Jersey US attorney, effectively ending her three-month fight for confirmation.
Habba, who had served as the Garden State’s top prosecutor since March 24, had just 120 days to serve before her interim term expired at midnight July 22.
In the absence of Senate confirmation, the Garden State’s 17 federal judges could have voted to extend her tenure.
It has been just shy of ten weeks since a mob of anti-Israel activists stormed the campus library at Columbia University. They took over an upstairs reading room the week before finals and did a bunch of chanting, including "from the river to the sea" in Arabic. But, for once, campus safety did something pretty smart. They announced that anyone could leave by presenting a valid student ID. Anyone who refused to present ID would be arrested. The activists didn't like this because it meant they would all be identified and could be subject to accountability. So
Nigel Farage has said violent UK offenders could be jailed overseas under his plans to cut crime by half. The Reform UK leader named El Salvador as a likely destination, though he said he has not held conversations with officials there and "multiple" partners would be considered. El Salvador is home to a notorious mega-prison, the Terrorism Confinement Center (CECOT). "It is quite astonishing that to keep a prisoner in a British prison it costs nearly £52,000 a year. "You could send a child Eton for that price. "So we can send some of our worst violent criminals overseas to serve their terms ..."
Reform UK leader Nigel Farage has proposed sending some prisoners overseas to serve their sentences, as part of a raft of measures he says would create around 30,000 prison places and cost £17.4bn. Speaking at an event in London, he also announced plans to build five prisons, return foreign prisoners to their country of origin, and recruit 30,000 police officers. Farage said the UK was "facing nothing short of societal collapse" and that a Reform government would halve crime in five years. He said crime costed the British economy £170bn,

Ozzy Osbourne, the lead singer of Black Sabbath, died Tuesday. He was 76.
"It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning," the family said in a statement to BBC. "He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time."
Osbourne recently performed his final concert with the band in Birmingham, England.
Ozzy Osbourne, the legendary Prince of Darkness and one of heavy metal’s most iconic stars, has died. He was 76.
He died “surrounded by love,” his family said in a statement to The Sun on Tuesday. “It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning. He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time. Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and Louis.”

President Donald Trump announced on Monday that British-Swedish drugmaker AstraZeneca will be investing $50 billion in the United States by 2030. This is just one of many significant investments from pharmaceutical companies, with many companies reacting to Trump's threat of imposing a 200% tariff on imported drugs. The investment will expand research and development and cell therapy manufacturing, with a new drug manufacturing facility being built in Virginia. AstraZeneca will also improve its clinical trial network within the United States and support investments in novel medicines.
Something remarkable is unfolding across America.
The once-unquestioned reverence for expert opinion — from polished T.V. pundits to Ivy League data wizards — is crumbling.
Despite all the doomsaying, this collapse might just be the healthiest thing to have happened in public life for generations on end.
What, exactly, is taking place? A lot of things.
Americans’ trust in scientists has declined since April 2020, dropping from 87% to 73% by Fall 2023, particularly among Republicans.
Stephen Colbert wants you to believe he's some kind of martyred truth-teller, canceled by the evil corporate overlords for daring to speak truth to power about Donald Trump.
He’s not.
It's a compelling narrative, if you're the type who still thinks late-night comedy hosts are brave crusaders rather than overpaid establishment mouthpieces. But, rather than accept reality, he’s leaning into the preferred narrative that he’s being silenced and that it’s President Trump’s fault.

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard suggested last week that intelligence was "manufactured and politicized" by the most powerful people in the Obama administration in 2016 and Americans will finally learn the truth, but legacy media outlets didn’t take the announcement particularly seriously. (Snip) MSNBC, meanwhile, spent more time downplaying Gabbard's report and similarly suggested Republicans are using it to distract from unflattering news. "The latest distraction comes from the national intelligence director, Tulsi Gabbard, who put out a baseless report Friday accusing the Obama administration of manufacturing intelligence that laid the groundwork for the FBI’s Russia probe into Trump," MSNBC’s Ayman Mohyeldin said.
Ukrainian lawmakers have approved a tightening of restrictions on two crucial anti-corruption agencies, heightening concerns over the country's commitment to rooting out deep-seated graft.
A total of 263 deputies in the 450-seat Verkhovna Rada voted in favor of a law that limits the independence of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) and the Specialized Anticorruption Prosecutor's Office (SAPO).
The law, brought forward by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's the Servant of the People Party, makes the Prosecutor-General the de facto head of SAPO, effectively stripping the agency's chief of their authority.
It also allows the Prosecutor-General to unilaterally close cases involving top officials and lets the Prosecutor General reassign

The response to Tulsi Gabbard’s weekend airstrike against the deep state’s attempt to walk away from RussiaGate has started to take shape. Leading in this effort is Andrew C. McCarthy, the last figure of any substance at the once august but now decrepit (and diehard NeverTrump) National Review. In “RussiaGate Re-revisited: Gabbard Urges DOJ to Prosecute Obama Official,” McCarthy argues that:
All the material that Gabbard released was already well-known (thanks in large part to one Andrew C. McCarthy).
That there was too Russian interference in the 2016 election.
Therefore, RussiaGate was for real and Obama and goons get a free pass.
On Monday’s broadcast of NewsNation’s “Cuomo,” acting ICE Director Todd Lyons said that many of the agency’s worksite enforcement actions have been going to locations with potential human trafficking, child exploitation or other crimes and “We want to go ahead and exploit those American businesses that are illegally taking credit off the men and women that they have working for them. We are going after the businesses as well.” Lyons said, “We hear all the time, from the left and the right, hey, we’ll support you if you have a criminal warrant, search warrant signed by a judge.
Happy Tuesday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. Sperzmiort felt that Charo's early acoustic work was best enjoyed on cassette and with a thrice-chilled Bartles & Jaymes cooler.Way back in the first week of 2023 — long before the 2024 Republican primary slog got underway — I wrote that I wanted President Trump to go scorched-earth if he got a second term in office. We were only two years into the Joe Biden nightmare and I needed something positive to focus on to keep myself from ending up as a functionally alcoholic groomer in a Tijuana Donkey Show.
Ivy League schools are disgusting cesspools of indoctrination. They are rotten down to the roots. Invasive ivy is pervasive; many of the Ivy League professors are abrasive. They both have to go.
Yet Harvard, the epitome of effete education, has the unmitigated gall to plead with some judge to block the Trump administration from withholding federal funds.
Inside the ivy-covered buildings, the audacity of all-American optimism is usurped by soul-destroying ideology recycled from the compost heap of history. Ivy also thrives in compost, weaving its insidious way up the outside of their buildings. English Ivy is a particularly nasty variant;
Death of Legacy Media?
replies
Are we watching the death of the legacy media? These media companies are losing money by the bushelful. It’s unsustainable — as Stephen Colbert just learned. His show was reportedly losing $40 million per year. That’s an insane amount of money to lose on a single stand-up comedy/talk show. He reportedly had 200 people working on his staff. How does that compare to other evening shows in the comedy/talk space? Well, Greg Gutfeld’s evening comedy/talk show has… 12, including 2 cameramen. That’s right. Just twelve people work behind the scenes to put a far superior product on the screen.
Among the climatically correct, nothing is more scandalous than describing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions as beneficial. You can be blacklisted from public forums, professional networking sites, and even be removed from your tenured university position as an accomplished scientist.
Nonetheless, the truth is this: CO2 is fundamental to the photosynthetic process by which plants make food for themselves -- and ultimately for us. Furthermore, the increase in atmospheric CO2 from industrial activity in the past century has helped vegetation over most of the planet to flourish. Also benefiting plants has been the relative warmth of recent decades.
Among the beneficiaries are fruit plants, whose sensitivity to cold is well established.
A Department of Justice employee claims she was fired after feds discovered her husband had developed an anti-ICE phone app. Carolyn Feinstein, who is married to ICEBlock developer Joshua Aaron, said she was unfairly removed from her post in 'retribution' against her partner's work. The ICEBlock app sets out warning signals to users when ICE agents are within a five-mile radius of their location, allowing targets to flee. After Aaron was exposed online for creating the app, Feinstein said she was terminated from her post as a forensic accountant after almost a decade working for the DoJ. 'This was retribution.
California Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom asked nonprofits to donate at least $610,000 to groups that call for defunding or abolishing law enforcement since 2023 before distancing himself from such stances. Immigrant Defenders Law Center (IDLC) and Immigrant Legal Defense (ILD) received $500,000 in 2023 and $110,000 in 2025, respectively, at Newsom’s request, according to state records first reported by The Washington Free Beacon. IDLC has advocated for defunding the police and worked to free illegal immigrants detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), while ILD “prioritizes abolishing immigration detention and reimagining the U.S. immigration system entirely,” the group’s website says.
Everyone hates James Comey.
Conservatives hate him for his role in the Russian collusion hoax, but also that absurd “86/47” social media post. In that ridiculous tale, Comey claims he saw some shells arranged that way while walking on the beach. The man has increasingly become more unhinged since he was fired by Donald Trump, almost ten years ago.
Democrats hate Comey for shedding light on the Hillary Clinton email scandal, wherein the former secretary of state used an unsecured email server for all official government business—a big no-no

President Donald Trump took to Truth Social to demand the elimination of cashless bail, saying the policy has failed and is endangering public safety.
“Crime in American Cities started to significantly rise when they went to CASHLESS BAIL,” President Trump posted on Monday. “The WORST criminals are flooding our streets and endangering even our great law enforcement officers. It is a complete disaster, and must be ended, IMMEDIATELY!”
Trump’s message echoes concerns he has voiced repeatedly on the campaign trail. At a Bronx rally in May of last year, Trump decried “radical left pro-crime policies” that he said have “destroyed” cities like New York.
