Jeb Boasberg is not giving up.Undeterred by recent smackdowns by the Supreme Court and the D.C. appellate court, Boasberg, the Obama-appointed chief judge of the D.C. district court, is preparing to mete out some sort of punishment against the Trump administration for allegedly defying one of his court orders back in March. During a hearing last week in the ACLU’s lawsuit related to the Alien Enemies Act, President Trump’s signature deportation policy that ordered the immediate removal of illegal Venezuelans tied to Tren de Aragua, Boasberg expressed frustration that his colleagues on the D.C. appellate court are dragging out a hold on Boasberg’s contempt findings; in April, Boasberg determined “probable cause

The Israeli foreign ministry challenged the New York Times and other major mainstream media outlets to publish a photo of a starving Israeli hostage — after publishing fake images of starving Palestinian childrenAs Breitbart News reported, Hamas filmed Evyatar David, 24, being forced to dig his own grave. The video was approved for release by his family — though Hamas’s clear purpose was to create alarm and to pressure the Israeli government to accept a ceasefire on unfavorable terms.
Last weekend, many major media outlets published images falsely purporting to be of starving Palestinian children. In reality, many suffered from other maladies.
Senior Hamas political bureau member Ghazi Hamad openly credited the October 7 terrorist massacre with forcing Western nations to recognize a Palestinian state, declaring in a weekend Al Jazeera interview that “the initiative by several countries to recognize a Palestinian state is one of the fruits of October 7” while vowing that Palestinians will never surrender their weapons.
The interview, broadcast by the Qatar-based network over the weekend, featured Hamad brazenly celebrating what he characterized as the diplomatic benefits of Hamas’s brutal attack that killed over 1,200 Israelis and took hundreds hostage.

President Donald Trump is actually doing something almost all presidents have failed to do, reduce the size and scale of the federal government.The Washington Post is very concerned about the economic datapoints coming from the DC area. Including: “the Trump administration’s overhaul of the federal workforce, including the elimination of thousands of federal jobs, is being acutely felt in a national capital region.”
WaPo – In May, D.C.’s unemployment rate was 5.9 percent — the highest in more than three years. The number of federal workers turning to unemployment insurance is climbing steadily, with claims rising 64 percent between February and June — from 1,064 to 1,747.
The U.S. State Department is set to roll out a 12‑month “visa bond” pilot program requiring some foreign tourists and business travelers to post bond amounts of $5,000, $10,000, or up to $15,000 before even stepping foot in America, according to AP News.
The regulation is expected to take effect August 20, 2025, with final details published in the Federal Register 15 days beforehand, consistent with federal notice rules.
The policy promises a full refund, with interest, only if travelers exit the country on time and via designated ports. Otherwise, the bond is forfeited to the Treasury, ostensibly to offset illegal-immigration enforcement costs.

President Donald Trump spent the last few months of his 2024 campaign promising to force taxpayers to foot the bill for a procedure that routinely destroys human life. His plans to pave the way for Americans to make “more babies” by subsidizing in vitro fertilization, however, are allegedly on hold.
The Washington Post reported that as of Sunday, Trump’s White House is allegedly “backing away from proposals discussed internally to mandate IVF coverage for the roughly 50 million people on the Obamacare exchanges.”
When confronted with July’s unexpectedly small job gain, National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett questioned the job report’s accuracy and called for “a fresh set of eyes” at the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Friday’s report also included a sizable downgrade in the number of jobs created in May and June from original estimates.
“The fact is that when the data are unreliable, when they keep being revised all over the place, then there are going to be people who wonder if there’s a partisan pattern in the data,” Hassett said on “Fox News Sunday.”
Hours of negotiations in the U.S. Senate over the confirmation of President Donald Trump’s nominees collapsed late Saturday night, following a decision by the President to end talks after what he called an “egregious” demand from Senate Minority Leader Chuck SchumerIn a post on Truth Social, President Trump accused Schumer, D-N.Y., of attempting to extort over $1 billion in exchange for allowing a vote on a small number of nominees who had already received bipartisan committee support.

Below is my column in Fox.com on the release of the last declassified material on the origins of the Russian collusion investigation. After the release, former CIA Director John Brennan and former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper wrote in the New York Times insisted that they never relied on the Steele dossier. The column only reaffirmed the level of dishonesty and duplicity that marked their tenures in office. (The Times still printed this claim despite being demonstrably untrue).
The documents quote Brennan in overruling career analysts and intervening to include the dossier in the intelligence assessment

A 19-year-old former Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) staffer was beaten and bloodied by a mob of 10 minors early Sunday morning as he thwarted a carjacking attempt in the nation’s capital, according to DC police.
Edward Coristine, whose LinkedIn handle earned him the nickname “Big Balls” at DOGE, was with a woman near downtown DC when he saw the group of juveniles approach their car and “make a comment about taking the vehicle,” according to a Metropolitan Police Department incident report obtained by The Post.
“At that point, for her safety, [Coristine] pushed his significant other … into the vehicle and turned to deal with the suspects,” the dramatic report continues.
President Donald Trump's Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., dropped a bombshell on Tuesday about mRNA vaccines and how they actually prolonged the COVID-19 pandemic. Yes, really.In a video posted on X by the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services (HHS), Kennedy announced that the science has been reviewed, and it shows that the shots forced on the public by the government to supposedly stop the COVID pandemic actually helped cause the variants and caused the pandemic to go on longer.Kennedy announced that the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority, or BARDA,

Former President Barack Obama will not face charges for treason, sedition or any other crime in the wake of newly disclosed intel. Whether Obama’s actions, if true, meet the elements of a crime is, of course, one thing. But this is not the primary reason Obama has little to worry about. [Snip] Why does Obama need not fear charges? The race card.
Consider the protests after the death of George Floyd. [Snip] ...Floyd’s death triggered the largest “racial injustice” protests in American history. ...estimated 10,000 protests,...5% to 7% involving violence. Approximately 26 million people protested, 25 people...killed, 2,000 police officers...injured, and billions of dollars...
Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas), who is quickly earning a reputation for being one of the most obnoxious members of Congress, recently unleashed a torrent of foul, filthy language during a left-wing rally. All of the vitriol was aimed squarely at President Donald Trump, whom she insulted with pure venom.
Crockett was delivering an address at the MoveOn Rally in Phoenix, Ariz., where she was advocating for improved oversight on gifts given to Supreme Court justices when the verbal explosion occurred.
"Listen, Donald Trump is a piece of *, OK? We know that!" she yelled
California and New York are signaling they will move forward with plans to redraw congressional lines as Democrats look to counter the Texas GOP.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) said Monday that Democrats are pursuing a plan to put mid-decade redistricting before voters, which could be “triggered” by what happens in Texas. And New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D), appearing alongside Texas Democrats who fled to her state over the proposed maps Monday, embraced exploring “every option” to redraw congressional lines.
Sen. Adam Schiff, the man who never missed a chance to lecture America about ethics and accountability, is now the focus of a full-blown federal criminal investigation. On Tuesday, the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Maryland, hardly a bastion of right-wing activism, revealed it is actively pursuing Schiff for alleged mortgage fraud. This isn’t some garden-variety political dustup—Schiff faces accusations that he repeatedly lied about his primary residence on federally backed mortgage applications spanning over a decade, from 2009 through 2020. While representing California in Congress, Schiff allegedly listed a Maryland property as his primary address to secure.
Project Veritas on Tuesday released a bombshell story from a whistleblower alleging former US Attorney General Bill Barr along with media figure Armstrong Williams is running an illegal immigration visa fraud scheme for elites and billionaires. Patrícia Lélis, whistleblower, former Brazilian journalist at Howard Stirk Holdings, who is in hiding abroad, told Project Veritas that she was prosecuted after reporting Bill Barr and Armstrong William to the FBI. “It is way more easy to defraud the immigration system and the government more than people think. And I have proof of that because that’s what Armstrong [Williams] and [Former Attorney General] Bill Barr does,” she said.
President Trump has had enough of the out-of-control violent crime in the District of Columbia, not to mention the exceptionally soft sentences being handed to offenders, and is threatening to "federalize" the Democrat-run city if nothing is done to address the problems. This comes after a DOGE staffer was severely beaten when he came to the aid of a woman being attacked by a rampaging mob of teen boys.
Trump took to Truth Social to put Democrat Mayor Muriel Bowser and the city council on notice that something needs to be done immediately—and if they won't do it, he will.

The man who once led the now-discredited “Russiagate” investigation may no longer be mentally competent to testify, according to new reports.
Paul Sperry of RealClearInvestigations reported Tuesday that former Special Counsel Robert Mueller has lived in a memory-care facility “for the past few years.”
Sperry wrote on X, “NEW: House Oversight Committee has subpoenaed Robert Mueller to appear for a Sept. 2 deposition to provide details from an FBI investigation of Jeffrey Epstein from decades ago — even though sources tell me Mueller has been living in a memory-care facility for the past few years.”
You think Kamala Harris picking her 2024 running mate was merely a strategic political move? Think again. As recently surfaced internal memos from the Department of Homeland Security and the FBI reveal, the choice of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz sent more than a few alarm bells ringing inside U.S. counterintelligence circles.
Newly released Homeland Security group chat messages, obtained after a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit from Judicial Watch, show outright glee from agency insiders at Washington’s potential nightmare.
Watergate was a zit…while RussiaGate is CANCER.
This is a coup, insurrection and treason by Obama, Hillary and their Deep State/communist cabal- all wrapped into the biggest scandal in U.S. history.
Yet the mainstream media is once again gaslighting us at the highest levels, while whistling past the graveyard. Why? Because this is their scandal. They were in on it from the first day, as the PR wing of the Democrat Party and various communist traitors hellbent on the intentional destruction of America. We all know Obama ordered the spying on candidate Trump to help his Secretary of State Hillary Clinton win the presidency.
