The U.S. Department of State announced Saturday morning that it was stopping a visa program that allowed residents of Gaza to enter the United States for "medical-humanitarian" reasons. This comes after videos of large groups of Gazans—often decked out in "Palestinian" flags and keffiyehs associated with the terror group Hamas—arriving at airports across the nation began popping up on social media in the last few weeks. According to this State Department tweet, the program is being paused while officials review the "process and procedures" that have allowed a stream of injured children from Gaza, often accompanied by several family members, into the country.

Wild video shows a Southwest pilot doing standardized field sobriety tasks on a jetbridge before eventually being arrested.
Driving while intoxicated is bad enough, but can you imagine getting on a plane where one of the pilots has been accused of having too many beers before clocking in for work? That was the reality for one plane full of people headed to Chicago from Savannah Hilton Head Airport earlier this year, when pilot David Paul Allsop was pulled off the flight after a member of the TSA reported having seen him appear intoxicated before boarding.

Social media bid “adios amigos” as an alleged illegal alien TikToker known for doxxing ICE operations was arrested during a livestream.
Clout chasing came with consequences this week in Los Angeles when attempts to restore law and order, along with national sovereignty, reached the “find out” stage for a TikToker who’d spent too much time “f*ing around” with law enforcement. Tatiana Martinez, an influencer with the Colombian flag in her Instagram bio known for encouraging disruption of immigration enforcement, was seen being hauled out of a Tesla and taken into custody.
“The number of TikTok influencers who are here illegally would shock you,”

A suspected illegal alien was killed after darting onto a freeway to avoid contact with federal immigration officers conducting an enforcement operation at a Home Depot store in Monrovia on Thursday, according to city officials. The man was struck by a passing motorist and taken to a hospital, where he later died.
Monrovia City Manager Dylan Fiek says the man ran from the Home Depot parking lot onto the 210 Freeway and likely was fleeing to avoid detection by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in the city located 20 miles north of Los Angeles.
According to the statement, the Monrovia Police Department was notified of a possible ICE operation
Twanda Willingham is suing the city of Chicago after being shot with a pistol that had been “relinquished to Chicago police at a gun turn-in event,” according to the NRA-ILA.
FOX 32 reported Willingham was shot in August 2023 with a Glock 21 “surrendered months earlier at a Chicago Police Department gun buyback.”
Willingham subsequently filed suit against Chicago, after it was discovered the gun had allegedly “disappeared while in transit between the [location of the buy back event] and a nearby police station—just blocks apart.” [Tweet]
The NRA-ILA noted that lawsuit provided further details on the alleged movement of the gun:
A leftist columnist recently told the New York Times he believes America needs a new Constitution.
During his interview, author and contributing editor of the New Republic, Osita Nwanevu, laid out the reforms he thinks should be proposed when asked to provide the “new Constitution” he believes that nation should have, the Times reported on Thursday.
He stated:
We could start with the thing that I think most Americans think about when they think about the undemocratic nature of our system, a reform that most Americans have supported for a long time, which is dealing with the Electoral College.
Tristan Rogers, who played legacy character Robert Scorpio on ABC’s “General Hospital,” died Friday, less than one month after he made a special appearance on the soap opera. He was 79.
“The entire ‘General Hospital’ family is heartbroken to hear of Tristan Rogers’ passing,” said Frank Valentini, the show’s executive producer, in a statement. “Tristan has captivated our fans for 45 years and Port Charles will not be the same without him (or Robert Scorpio).”
Born in Melbourne, Australia, Rogers’ first foray into performing was in his early twenties and playing drums in a rock band with a group of friends. They weren’t successful so Rogers turned to commercial work
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will meet with President Donald Trump at the White House on Monday after Trump’s positive meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday.
Trump, who is looking to bring the Ukraine war to a close, took to Truth Social early Saturday morning to announce that he had spoken with Zelensky following the Putin summit in Alaska, and the understanding among all parties is that a peace deal, rather than a ceasefire, must be reached. He also revealed Zelensky is coming to Washington:
Nine Democrat officials pleaded not guilty this week to felony election-fraud charges in one of the most significant ballot-harvesting cases in recent Texas history.
The charges were brought by Attorney General Ken Paxton after a two-year investigation that uncovered what prosecutors describe as an organized scheme to manipulate mail-in ballots in rural South Texas.
Six of the defendants appeared in person at a Pearsall courtroom on Wednesday, while three others joined remotely through Zoom.
Among those charged is Juan Manuel Medina, the former chairman of the Bexar County Democrat Party. Medina’s attorney filed a motion to dismiss the charges, arguing that the prosecution is politically motivated,
For years, Senator Adam Schiff built his career accusing Republicans of corruption while pretending to be a defender of democracy.
Now he stands accused of mortgage fraud in a scandal that underscores not only his hypocrisy but the broader corruption embedded in the Democratic Party.
The Gateway Pundit first broke this story, reporting that Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) Director William Pulte referred Schiff for criminal investigation earlier this year.
In May, Pulte sent the referral to Attorney General Pam Bondi alleging that Schiff falsified bank documents and property records “in multiple instances” to secure more favorable loan terms between 2003 and 2019.
A federal judge on Friday shut down the Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) investigation into far-left Media Matters.
US District Judge Sparkle Sooknanan, a Biden appointee, issued an injunction against the FTC and blocked its investigation into Media Matters.
The judge said the Trump Administration illegally retaliated against Media Matters.
“This case presents a straightforward First Amendment violation,” judge Sparkle Sooknanan wrote.
In May, the Federal Trade Commission launched an investigation into Media Matters for America, the far left group that targets conservative media outlets and personalities to put them out of business.
Media Matters for America is funded by the top Democrat Megadonors who value their work.

Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. shut down rumors about his personal political goals, claiming it's just an effort to drive a wedge between him and President Donald Trump.
In a lengthy post on X, Kennedy addressed the rumors, stating that he wanted to make it crystal clear he has no plans to run for president in 2028 and that his loyalty lies with President Trump, the man who he said has made good on every single promise he's made to Make America Healthy Again.

"The swamp is in full panic mode," Kennedy said.

Star Wars actor Mark Hamill has revealed he planned to leave the United States when Donald Trump was re-elected as president in 2024.
The 73-year-old, known for his role as Luke Skywalker in the iconic sci-fi franchise, gave his wife Marilou Tork – whom he married in 1978 – the choice between relocating to “London or Ireland. Hamill’s wife, who worked as a dental hygienist and met Hamill while cleaning his teeth, ingeniously convinced her husband not to move countries by suggesting Trump was pushing them out of the US.
“She’s very clever. She didn’t respond right away but a week later she said, ‘I’m surprised you would
Sunday on MSNBC’s “The Weekend,” Oakland Mayor Barbara Lee said President Donald Trump is attempting to “dismantle our democracy” with his federal takeover of Washington, D.C.
Lee said, “Let me just tell you that this president is fear mongering. He wants to militarize our cities to occupy them with outside federal force and that is very dangerous. This is part of his effort to dismantle our democracy. With regard to Oakland, you know we have our strategy also similar to Mayor Scott’s on focused deterrence, our crime rates going down.”
She added, “We have a significant reduction in crime. We’re going to keep at it.

Former FBI Director James Comey confessed in a strange video Sunday that Taylor Swift has been his family’s soundtrack — and a source of life advice on handling bullies.
He also took swipes at President Donald Trump while bragging about a family "Swiftie" group chat and talking about how he blasts "Tay Tay" while mowing the lawn.
Comey opened by accusing Trump of humiliating America alongside Vladimir Putin, calling it "a bad dream you can’t wake up from."
United States District Court for the District of Columbia Chief Judge James Boasberg is well known to this audience for ordering illegal aliens to remain in the United States despite the Trump administrations clearly lawful effort to deport them under the Aliens Enemies Act. Yet, he also has an important connection to the Russiagate hoax that reveals the scope of the lawfare superstructure that is trying to dismantle MAGA, which I document in my book Breaking the Law. Just like the rest of the Russiagate conspirators, Boasberg ought to be investigated for it.

Scott Janssen’s heart was racing. He took shallow breaths. He couldn’t believe what he was seeing, but he tried to hide his shock.
It was a crisp autumn day, and Janssen was visiting Buddy, an elderly client, at his small brick home on a dead-end street in Durham, North Carolina.
Buddy had just lost May, his wife of 40 years. She was bed-ridden and had suffered from Alzheimer’s disease. Janssen, a hospice social worker, had been visiting the couple for nine months. During that time he had never heard May utter a sound and only saw her open her eyes once.
Three people were killed and eight others wounded when multiple gunman opened fire inside a Brooklyn restaurant around closing time Sunday morning.
Officers responded to calls of a shooting inside Taste of the City Lounge at 903 Franklin Avenue in the Crown Heights neighborhood just before 3:30 a.m., NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said at a press briefing.
The fatal victims were identified as three men, who were 27, 35, and an unknown age.
The eight wounded victims were transported to local hospitals. However, their conditions were not disclosed.
New York’s state Public Service Commission just OK’d big National Grid rate increases that’ll hike many upstate utility bills by $600 a year — fueling outrage Democrats will soon feel.
Downstate, Con Edison is seeking an 11.4% hike to electric bills and 13.3% gas hike — largely thanks to green-energy mandates that Gov. Kathy Hochul embraced along with the rest of the party.
The “climate agenda” is delivering pain we’ve long warned of, in New York and New Jersey.
Across the Hudson, electric bills as much as tripled this summer —
A federal district court in Philadelphia ruled against the Little Sisters of the Poor and the Trump administration on Wednesday, blocking exemptions that prevent religious groups from being required to cover birth control costs in their health plans.
Despite previous failed attempts to force the sisters to conform, the states of Pennsylvania and New Jersey sued the Trump administration — joined by intervenors Little Sisters of the Poor — over a religious exception to the Affordable Care Act’s (ACA) contraception mandate established during the first Trump admin.
Gov. Kathy Hochul threw cold water Saturday on socialist NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani’s proposal to bring government-owned-and-operated grocery stores to the Big Apple.
“I favor free enterprise,” Hochul told business leaders at a Hamptons breakfast hosted by supermarket mogul John Catsimatidis, when asked about Mamdani’s pie-in-the-sky plan.
The response drew huge applause from attendees, including Catsimatidis. The Gristedes supermarket owner later told The Post Mamdani’s plan would fail miserably, pointing to failures at a Kansas City, Mo.-owned grocery store that closed Monday after years of being a huge money pit for taxpayers and being plagued by rampant shoplifting and empty shelves.
Obama is the New Nixon

Barack Obama is the new Nixon. There, I wrote it down and my name is on it. It’s not publicly approved speech yet, but it is no longer the Thought Crime it once was. Many Americans are thinking it. And some, like me, are saying out loud.
Barack Obama is our modern Nixon figure. Worse than Nixon, actually.
Nixon was considered devious. He was presented as demon by The Washington Post and most of the rest of American journalism as the devil who had to be crushed, his followers subjected to never ending ridicule, his political party was sent on a Walk of Shame.
Susan Miller, the retired CIA spook who lied about her leadership role in the intelligence report that lit the fuse on the Russia collusion hoax bomb, has been stripped of her security clearance, according to two Trump administration officials familiar with the matter.
Miller, who served as a senior Central Intelligence Agency Officer, has long boasted about her “full clearance,” particularly while attacking President Donald Trump and his top intelligence officers for shining a light on one of the biggest political scandals in U.S. history. That clearance has now been terminated, the administration officials told The Federalist.

All eyes will be on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s scheduled visit to the White House on Monday following Trump’s Alaska summit with Russian dictator Vladimir Putin.
But Zelensky won’t be lonely—a host of European leaders are now coming to tag along. Here’s who has been announced so far:
