AT&T has quietly expanded its foreign workforce while securing a multimillion-dollar federal contract intended to bolster U.S. national security infrastructure. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security awarded AT&T a 10-year, $146 million contract last year to maintain and expand emergency communications systems such as the Government Emergency Telecommunications Service and Wireless Priority Service, according to a September 2024 company press release. The award extends AT&T’s long-running partnership with DHS into next-generation 5G networks. At the same time, federal immigration data shows the telecom giant has continued to rely on foreign labor. According to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) H-1B Data Hub, 388 H-1B workers were approved

war to 9/11 6 replies
Zohran Mamdani’s father Mahmood — a prominent leftist in his own right — penned a book in the wake of the terrorist attacks of 9/11 where he argued that there was a “moral equivalence” between the United States and al-Qaeda, compared the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan to the terrorist destruction of the World Trade Center, blamed the U.S. for 9/11 and al-Qaeda, and much more. Mahmood Mamdani is a longtime tenured Columbia University professor, where the school says he "specializes in the study of colonialism, anti-colonialism, and decolonization."
An even more potent replacement for fentanyl is emerging in the United States, and experts say China is behind its rise.
Nitazenes, a class of synthetic opioids that can be up to 43 times stronger than fentanyl, were first developed in the 1950s as a painkiller, but their extreme addictiveness led drugmakers to keep them off the shelves. Now, their black market presence is increasing. The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) logged zero reported nitazene discoveries from 2005 to 2019. Since then, the agency has logged nearly 7,000 such reports and linked the drugs to roughly 2,000 deaths.
An Indian man who was in the United States illegally is in custody after a stabbing that took place aboard an airliner on Saturday.
Praneeth Kumar Usiripalli, 28, is charged with one count of assault with a dangerous weapon with intent to do bodily harm while traveling on an aircraft in the special aircraft jurisdiction of the United States, according to a Department of Justice news release.
The incident took place aboard a Lufthansa flight from Chicago that had been scheduled to land in Frankfurt, Germany. The incident took place while the plane was over the Atlantic, according to MassNewsLive.
TOKYO — President Trump announced Toyota has promised $10 billion in investments toward new manufacturing plants in the US — urging people to “go out and buy a Toyota” in a wide-ranging speech to sailors aboard the USS George Washington Tuesday in Tokyo Bay.
Trump, who is making trade and economic deals a top goal of his three-nation regional tour, said that Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi told him earlier in the day that the world’s largest car company would pour funds into American manufacturing plants.
The attorneys general of 24 states filed a brief with the U.S. Supreme Court supporting the Trump administration’s attempt to stop the invasion-through-legal-loophole of “birthright citizenship.”
Attorneys general Jonathan Skrmetti, R-Tenn., and Brenna Bird, R-Iowa, led the charge alongside nearly every Republican state attorney general in the country with the 37-page brief asking the nation’s high court to side with the Trump administration’s argument that the 14th Amendment clearly does not allow for any person born on American soil to automatically become an American citizen.
India’s government is drafting a bill to expand and accelerate the already huge migration of Indians into jobs throughout the developed world, including white collar careers in the Fortune 500.
The “Overseas Mobility Bill” will help the Indian government train its young people amid recommendations from foreign companies, negotiate labor deals with foreign governments, and help bind overseas Indians to their home countries, according to the English-language Deccan Herald newspaper, which adds:
[Training] young Indians in the future of jobs overseas, negotiating better working conditions for [Indian] workers, and opening new pathways for [Indian] migration will be crucial. The law should empower young Indian migrants to strengthen their leverage and
In September 2017, a photograph surfaced on social media showing activist Linda Sarsour kneeling on a Brooklyn sidewalk beside campaign volunteers for City Council candidate Khader El-Yateem.
Among them was a young organizer named Zohran Mamdani.
That image, posted on El-Yateem’s campaign page, marked the beginning of a political collaboration that would soon extend far beyond a local election. Eight years later, Mamdani — now 34 — is positioned to seek the mayoralty of New York City.
His ascent, according to a Fox News Digital investigation, is the result of a coordinated network of political and religious organizations that have advanced candidates sharing socialist and Islamist ideologies.
One aspect of the government shutdown that probably wasn’t anticipated by Chuck Schumer and other Democrats, is that it has revealed to the public just how many people receive food stamps. Years ago, when the program was still called ‘food stamps’ it was seen as something that struggling families might use temporarily to get through a hard time. Then it was re-branded as the ‘SNAP’ program and destigmatized. People were encouraged to enroll. Now there are many more people using the program, many who probably don’t even really need it. The longer the shutdown goes on, the more reports there are about this and it’s stunning to taxpayers
Let the wailing and gnashing of teeth begin.
Within the first two weeks of the ongoing government shutdown, agency heads reportedly sent permanent layoff notices to about 4,000 federal employees under the guidance of Director of the Office of Management and Budget Russ Vought. But compared to the private sector, this is a proverbial drop in the bucket.
The partial lapse in government funding has dragged on for 27 days now as Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and 44 other senators continue to block the “clean” government funding measure that the House passed in September. As a result of the funding lapse, Vought says that 10,000 federal employees could ultimately
A group of left-wing congresswomen enjoyed some fun in the sun during a glitzy junket to the U.S. Virgin Islands in June—with donors picking up the check—records reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon show.
Among the attendees of the "Women's Retreat Weekend" at the Westin St. Thomas Beach were OG squad members like Reps. Ilhan Omar (D., Minn.) and Ayanna Pressley (D., Mass.), as well as rising progressive stars like Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D., Texas). A flyer for the event also shows Reps. Yvette Clarke (D., N.Y.), Valerie Foushee (D., N.C.), Lucy McBath (D., Ga.), and Emilia Sykes (D., Ohio) as attendees, though representatives for Foushee told

Collierville, TN 12 replies
For two generations, Bob’s family didn’t just work for FedEx; they were a part of the Collierville community that the company built. His father, a Collierville native, retired as a respected FedEx pilot. Bob followed him into the company, securing a white-collar technical role and the promise of the same stable, prosperous life in the town Parade magazine once named “Best Main Street” in America.
He remembers a different Collierville. A town of just over 10,000, where kids left their bikes unlocked outside the gas station and a trip to the store always meant running into someone you knew. “It was the type of community where…

Joe Biden emerged from hiding on Sunday night to deliver a Trump-bashing speech that once again illustrates just how tone-deaf he and his handlers are with reality.
As ABC News reported, 82-year-old Biden was speaking publicly for the first time since completing a round of radiation therapy for an aggressive form of prostate cancer.
The former White House occupier was present to receive a lifetime achievement award for inspired leadership from the Edward M. Kennedy Institute in Boston.
Biden soon turned his speech into a Trump-bashing session, implying the president was a dictator.

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates now says climate change “will not lead to humanity’s demise,” despite having spent years fearmongering over rising global temperatures.
Gates authored a surprising blog post on Monday advocating for climate activists to move away from the “doomsday outlook” they have spent years peddling.
“Although climate change will have serious consequences — particularly for people in the poorest countries — it will not lead to humanity’s demise,” wrote Gates, who has spent billions of dollars on climate-related initiatives. “People will be able to live and thrive in most places on Earth for the foreseeable future.”
Gavin Newsom has said a lot of ridiculous things over the years, but his latest claim takes the cake; saying he was a “young street hustler” who survived on mac & cheese and Wonder Bread might be his dumbest line yet. And fear not, the internet is coming for him hard.You almost have to admire Gavin Newsom’s commitment to absolute delusion. The man’s been handed everything his entire life. Talk about coming into the world with a silver spoon in your mouth. This guy was born into San Francisco high society, connected to the Getty family, practically raised on private jets and trust funds, and now he’s trying to convince
At least nineteen people were shot, three of them fatally, over the course of the past weekend in Democrat-run Chicago.
Breitbart News reported at least 11 people were shot Friday into Saturday night alone, and one of those shooting victims succumbed to his wounds.
By Monday, CBS News noted the tally of wounded reached at least 16 and at least two additional shooting fatalities had occurred.
The first of the two additional shooting fatalities occurred “in the 4100 block of West Jackson Boulevard” at 3:10 p.m. on Saturday. A 23-year-old man was inside a vehicle when someone shot him in the chest, killing him.

The problem with deals made with terrorist groups is that they are generally pathological liars and oftentimes aren’t interested in “peace” at all; they just want a chance to regroup.
Under the Trump-brokered deal, Hamas was supposed to return all the Israeli hostages, yet they have not fully complied. Now Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has accused the group of violating the ceasefire by shooting at Israel Defense Forces (IDF) troops in Gaza, and he’s vowing retribution:
"Following the security consultations, Prime Minister Netanyahu instructed the military echelon to carry out immediate and powerful strikes in the Gaza Strip," Netanyahu's office said Tuesday.

Executive Power as President Declined,
House Report Finds 15 replies
Top Biden administration officials misused executive authority and took actions without then-President Joe Biden’s authorization as his mental acuity declined, a House investigation found.
President Biden’s inner circle hid the extent of his mental decline from the American people and exercised executive authority by abusing the presidential autopen and taking advantage of a lax chain-of-command, according to a report released Tuesday by the House Oversight Committee.
Congress is barreling toward a critical deadline for extending the enhanced ObamaCare subsidies at the heart of the government shutdown, and it may already be too late to shield the public from sticker shock with open-enrollment window shopping underway.
If somehow there is a deal done ahead of Nov.1, which looks unlikely, states and the federal government may still have time to incorporate the enhanced subsidies into their prices. But Republicans have made it clear that there will need to be changes to the tax credits before they even entertain an extension.
Springsteen’ Movie Bombs All over the World

Here in America, the Springsteen biopic opened to a truly dreadful $9.1 million. With billions more customers available overseas and Springsteen’s status as a global superstar, you’d think that’s where the money is.Nope.
The movie only scooped up another $7 million internationally, which means that its overall global take was a measly $16 million.
How bad is that?Well, box office analysts believed the worst it would do just here in America was $15 million, and it ended up only barely topping the domestic worst-case scenario all over the world.
Is this a case of “Go woke, go broke?”
Well, as I wrote on Sunday,
The House Oversight and Reform Committee has released a 100-page report [pdf HERE] highlighting how people around Joe Biden hid information about his cognitive incapacity and worked around the issue using his autopen signature to authorize presidential actions.
The House committee has released the video and transcript of all the witnesses questioned during their investigation [SEE HERE] to support their contention and referral to the Dept of Justice for a criminal investigation of the events.
