Trump: Cashless Bail a ‘Complete Disaster,
and Must Be Ended Immediately’
Posted By: Dreadnought, 7/22/2025 12:29:09 AM
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.

SURIN, Thailand — Thai and Cambodian soldiers clashed along the border between their countries on Thursday in a major escalation that left at least 14 people dead, mostly civilians. The two sides fired small arms, artillery and rockets, and Thailand also launched airstrikes.
Fighting took place in at least six areas, Thai Defense Ministry spokesperson Surasant Kongsiri said, a day after a land mine explosion along the border wounded five Thai soldiers and led Bangkok to withdraw its ambassador from Cambodia and expel Cambodia’s envoy to Thailand.
It was a rare instance of military conflict
Jazz musician Chuck Mangione, who had one of the biggest pop-jazz instrumental crossover hits of all time with “Feels So Good” in the 1970s, died Tuesday at age 84.
The death was reported by multiple news outlets out of his native Rochester, NY. The city’s WROC-TV reported that the Bartolomeo & Perreto Funeral Home said the musician died in his sleep at home on Tuesday.
The flugelhorn and trumpet player won two Grammys, out of 14 nominations, in a career that spanned 30 albums. Beyond his musical success, the musician was also familiar to millions for his recurring role playing himself on the animated series “King of the Hill.”
Those who've been watching the legal battles unfold regarding President Donald Trump's executive order on birthright citizenship have been awaiting the next move from the lower courts, following the Supreme Court ruling on the matter at the end of June. We've since had several rulings, including a classwide certification as to individual (infant) plaintiffs, and now, a ruling on Wednesday from the 9th Circuit holding the executive order "likely" unconstitutional. How did we get here, and what comes next? On Day One of the second Trump administration, one of several executive orders signed by President Trump addressed the issue of birthright citizenship.
Founder of the World Economic Forum Klaus Schwab reportedly exhibited a pattern of misconduct during his tenure as the multinational organisation's most senior executive, according to preliminary findings of an internal investigation.
The probe was launched by the WEF board in April in response to whistleblower complaints over alleged unauthorised spending, bullying and inappropriate treatment of female staffers by 87-year-old Schwab.
It came just two days after the German economist - who denies the claims - stepped down from his role as the Forum's top executive with immediate effect after 55 years over Easter weekend.
Preliminary findings from the probe are said to have found evidence

LONDON -- Britain’s Supreme Court on Wednesday quashed the convictions of two financial market traders accused of manipulating benchmark interest rates in one of the biggest scandals to come out of the global financial crisis in 2008.
The charges against Tom Hayes, a former Citigroup and UBS trader, and Carlo Palombo, who worked for Barclays, centered around alleged efforts to influence the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate, or Libor, and its euro currency equivalent Euribor, which were used to set the interest rates on trillions of dollars of loans and other financial products around the world.
The court ruled that the convictions of Hayes and Palombo were unfair because the judges
President Donald Trump has secured a $221 million settlement with Columbia University to resolve multiple federal civil rights investigations.
The deal includes $200 million over three years for alleged discriminatory practices and $21 million to settle claims of antisemitic employment discrimination against Jewish faculty after the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas attacks in Israel.
The White House called it the largest antisemitism-related settlement in U.S. history; Columbia confirmed the dollar amounts, but did not characterize the deal that way. The agreement restores billions in federal research funding and imposes oversight through an independent monitor. Columbia has agreed to reform
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Wednesday allowed President Donald Trump to fire members of the Consumer Product Safety Commission, a federal agency Congress set up to be independent of political pressures.
The justices, granting an emergency request filed by the Trump administration, blocked a Maryland-based federal judge’s ruling that reinstated Mary Boyle, Alexander Hoehn-Saric and Richard Trumka Jr., all of whom were appointed by President Joe Biden.
Without the three members, the five-member commission would for now lack the necessary quorum to fulfill its obligation to protect consumers from defective products.

I was a kid during the Watergate hearings in 1973 and 1974, after Richard Nixon's historic landslide re-election. I wasn't too interested in politics at that point - I was 12 - but my Dad made me sit and watch all the coverage with him, admonishing me that "this is history being made." This is the same man, mind you, who a year or two later made me read Aristotle's "Organon" - then quizzed me on it afterward. But I suspect my interest in politics began with Watergate, with that historic event.
Now, we're seeing an equally historic event. And the legal wranglings are beginning: On Wednesday
A federal judge in Washington, D.C., denied an appeal to overturn an earlier judge’s ruling allowing President Trump’s White House to restrict The Associated Press’ access to certain White House spaces.
The White House banned the AP from the press pool, a rotating group of reporters covering the president’s daily activities, earlier this year over its refusal to use “Gulf of America” instead of “Gulf of Mexico” in its widely-used Stylebook.
In June, the U.S. Court of Appeals temporarily blocked, an early April order from a district court judge that allowed the AP to regain its access to key White House spaces.

WASHINGTON - U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi told President Donald Trump in May that his name appeared in Justice Department files about Jeffrey Epstein, the convicted sex offender who died in prison, the Wall Street Journal reported on Wednesday, citing senior administration officials.
Reuters was not able to immediately verify the Journal's report, which the White House condemned as "fake news." The Justice Department concluded in early July that there was not a basis to continue the Epstein probe, triggering a backlash among Trump's political base who demanded more information about wealthy and powerful people who had interacted with Epstein
French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife, Brigitte Macron, have filed a defamation lawsuit against American conservative commentator Candace Owens over claims that the French First Lady was born as a man.
The first couple of France filed a 218-page lawsuit in the U.S. state of Delaware on Wednesday against Mrs Owens and her businesses, alleging that she has financially gained from making “demonstrably false” claims about Brigitte Macron being secretly transgender.
Owens has previously stated that she would stake her “entire professional reputation on the fact that Brigitte Macron is in fact a man,” while claiming that Macron was, in fact, her brother
Federal investigators said that the man wanted for allegedly throwing rocks and explosives at law enforcement during anti-ICE riots in Los Angeles has surrendered at the border.
Authorities said that 40-year-old U.S. citizen Elpidio Reyna turned himself in at the San Ysidro port Wednesday morning after being wanted since June for the alleged violent rock-throwing incidents. Fox News' Matt Finn wrote on X about the arrest:

Barack Obama has broken his silence on calls from Donald Trump for him to be prosecuted by unequivocally rejecting his successor’s accusations that he tried to engineer a “coup” following Trump’s 2016 election victory by “manufacturing” evidence of Russian interference.
Obama’s office took the unusual step of issuing an emphatic refutation after Trump told reporters that his predecessor had “[tried] to lead a coup” against him and was guilty of “treason” over intelligence assessments suggesting that Russia had intervened to help Trump defeat Hillary Clinton in the campaign.
“Out of respect for the office of the presidency,
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard released further evidence Wednesday morning, which she claims shows the Obama administration's direct involvement in the 2016 post-presidential election Russia hoax.
Gabbard, describing the plot as the "most egregious weaponization and politicization of intelligence in American history," posted a series of lies which have, in her view, been debunked by declassifying a 2020 House Intelligence Committee report.
The report was an assessment of how the Obama administration manufactured a January 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment, which portrayed Russia as having influenced the 2016 election in favor of Donald Trump.
That assessment was "false," Gabbard writes,

On July 13, 2024, 20-year-old Thomas Crooks, before witnesses and unimpeded by law enforcement, climbed onto the roof of the American Glass Research (AGR) building at the Butler Farm Show. He was 441 feet away from the stage on which candidate Donald Trump was addressing 15,000 enthusiastic supporters. . . .These parallel reports set forth a detailed narrative of official mismanagement, disorder, incompetence, and inexplicable failures that converged to afford Crooks the clear and readily preventable opportunity to murder Trump.
Ghislaine Maxwell is assembling “new evidence” to present to the feds when she meets with them this week, her brother told The Post.
Jeffrey Epstein’s madame never gave her version of events to federal prosecutors before her 2021 trial, which resulted in a 20-year sentence for recruiting women and underage girls for Epstein to sexually abuse. She also never testified in her own defense.
“She will be putting before that court material new evidence that was not available to the defense at her 2021 trial, which would have had a significant impact on its outcome,” Ian Maxwell told The Post in an email Wednesday.
America deserves better than the degenerate propaganda machine that passes for “elite” journalism. We deserve better than the evil “cracked out clown show” the Democratic Party has become.
The New York Times and The Washington Post all but ignored DNI Tulsi Gabbard’s bombshell press conference Wednesday, at which she announced that she had sent criminal referrals to the DOJ and FBI implicating former President Barack Obama and his national security team in the “seditious conspiracy” of the Russia collusion hoax.
Paramount has wrapped up long-running negotiations that will bring the entirety of the South Park catalog to its Paramount+ streaming service, but it’s going to cost them.
The media company has agreed to pay the production company owned by South Park creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker $1.5 billion for the global streaming rights for the next five years. HBO Max previously held the streaming rights to the show. Paramount has, instead, aired South Park original films on its streaming service.
The federal government has awarded a contract to build and operate a sprawling tent camp at Fort Bliss, an Army base in Texas, to serve as an immigrant detention center.
In the Trump administration’s latest move to vastly expand space for such detention, the work would turn the base in El Paso, with more than 1 million acres and an airport, into a deportation hub with 5,000 beds. That would make it the largest immigration detention facility in the country. An official for US Immigration and Customs Enforcement said that the agency “is indeed pursuing all available options to expand bedspace capacity.
Barack Obama wants you to think he had nothing to do with the Russia collusion hoax, but that lie is unraveling fast. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has declassified a trove of documents that expose how the Obama administration faked the January 2017 intelligence report to falsely accuse Trump of colluding with Russia.
The evidence includes a 2020 House Intelligence Committee report, which confirms that despite no cyber interference from Russia, Obama pushed for a new intelligence community assessment (ICA) in late 2016 to shape a narrative that Putin was helping Trump. It was all part of a desperate attempt to undermine a duly elected president.

During an interview on CBS News on Tuesday, Rep. Joyce Beatty (D-OH) argued that economic indices on the stock market, employment, and inflation are just being made up by the Trump administration and “what they’re reporting are just numbers and we don’t know how much accuracy [there] is.”
Host and CBS News Chief Washington Correspondent Major Garrett asked, “Congresswoman, the White House says, repeatedly, and there are some numbers that back them up on this, the stock market is up, investment in this country is up, employment is up or stable, inflation is down or stable. Most of the economic indices they point to are on the upswing.
