Unfortunately, this isn't even a little bit surprising. The Zero was running a totally corrupt Chicago style operation.

Over the past week, prominent Democrats and left-wing pundits have openly promised that once they are back in power, they will do what it takes to ensure Republicans never obtain power again — while punishing those who have been in power. And while Democrats are openly sketching out their plans for a permanent, one-party realignment, Republicans are busy passing meaningless resolutions condemning socialism. On Monday leftist agitator George Conway told The Bulwark, “There has to be kind of a Reconstruction Era.

On Monday, the Supreme Court will hear oral argument in Trump v. Slaughter — a case that at its simplest level concerns whether the president had the power to fire Rebecca Slaughter, a member of the Federal Trade Commission. The case, however, actually presents a much more profound issue concerning separation of powers and executive authority under Article II, and whether the Supreme Court should reverse the near century-old precedent of Humphrey’s Executor. Starting, though, at the simplest level: In March of 2025, President Trump notified Slaughter that he had removed her “from the Federal Trade Commission, effective immediately,” because her “continued service on the FTC is inconsistent with [the

WASHINGTON — The FBI made an arrest on Thursday in its nearly 5-year-old investigation into who placed pipe bombs in Washington on the eve of the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol, a law enforcement official told The Associated Press. The arrest marks the first time investigators have settled on a suspect in an act that had long vexed law enforcement, spawned a multitude of conspiracy theories and remained an enduring mystery in the shadow of the dark chapter of American history that is the violent Capitol siege.

The same corporate media and “expert” class that cheered censorship and did their best to “fact-check” dissent out of the discussion during the peak of Covid panic are on edge after a top U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) official pledged to revamp the vaccine approval process. His commitment to reform comes on the heels of an unreleased report that found children died after receiving the Covid jab. In a recent five-page memo to staff at the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER), the center director and FDA Chief Medical Officer Vinay Prasad committed to acknowledging “for the first time” that Covid shots “have killed American children.”

The Treasury Department is investigating claims that Minnesota taxpayer funds were stolen by fraudulent nonprofits and rerouted to the Al-Shabaab terrorist group in Somalia, according to Secretary Scott Bessent on Dec. 1. Bessent made the announcement on the social media platform X just days after President Donald Trump eliminated temporary deportation protections for Somalis living in Minnesota. Trump, in his announcement on Nov. 21, also called Minnesota a “hub of fraudulent money laundering activity” and accused Democratic Gov. Tim Walz of failing to deter such crimes in the state.

During the roughly hour-long hearing, the justices heard arguments in Urias-Orellana v. Bondi. The case centers around Salvadoran national Humberto Urias-Orellana, who fled his home country and illegally entered the United States with his family in 2021 after reportedly enduring targeted violence in El Salvador.As summarized by Oyez, upon entering America, the illegal alien and his family were charged by the Department of Homeland Security “with removability for illegal entry,” which prompted them to apply for asylum “based on persecution of their family group.” Urias-Orellana also sought “protection” under the

TOKYO, Dec 5 - American actor and playwright Jeremy O. Harris, known for the Tony-nominated "Slave Play", was arrested last month at an airport in Japan on suspicion of attempting to smuggle illegal drugs into the country, local authorities said late on Thursday. Harris, 36, was stopped on November 16 at Naha Airport on Okinawa island after a customs officer discovered 0.78 grams of crystal containing the synthetic narcotic MDMA in his tote bag, an Okinawa Regional Customs spokesperson said. He was immediately arrested on suspicion of violating Japan's Narcotics and Psychotropics Control Act. Local customs officials filed a criminal accusation with the regional prosecutor's office on Thursday to

Afghanistan’s Taliban made a 13-year-old carry out a public execution in front of thousands of onlookers, shooting a man who had killed more than a dozen members of the boy’s family. An estimated 80,000 people gathered at a sports stadium in the southeastern province of Khost to witness the horrific spectacle, condemned by the UN as “inhuman and cruel”. The convicted murderer, called Mangal, and two others had been found guilty of killing 13 members of the teenager’s family, including several children and women. The killer was sentenced to ‘Qisas’ - a retaliation punishment under Sharia law similar to the Biblical principle of ‘an eye for an eye’. The Supreme Court said

The arrest of Brian Cole Jr. on Thursday in connection with the J6 pipe bombing incident is a huge story. But make no mistake, this story is about to be memory-holed by the mainstream media… and fast. Federal authorities arrested 30-year-old Brian Cole Jr. of Virginia for allegedly planting pipe bombs outside the RNC and DNC headquarters on the night of January 5, 2021. For four years, Biden’s FBI failed to break the case while the pipe bombs were used as political ammunition against Trump supporters. As PJ Media previously reported, Cole’s arrest did not result from new tips or a brave new witness suddenly emerging from the shadows; it was because

"The admiral confirmed that there had not been a kill them all order and that there was not an order to grant no quarter," Rep.

The inspector general responsible for scrutinizing U.S. reconstruction efforts in Afghanistan has detailed the billions of dollars wasted by the U.S. government during the 20-year war in the country and concluded that the arsenal of U.S.-provided weaponry that was left behind now forms the "core" of the Taliban's own military machine. . . . The report said the Pentagon has concluded that the U.S. left behind weaponry worth at least $7.1 billion -- weapons now in the hands of the Taliban -- and that the U.S. government also continued to send $3.47 billion in humanitarian and development assistance to Afghanistan after the Taliban takeover.

Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani vowed Thursday to stop clearing homeless encampments throughout the Big Apple — ending a signature initiative pushed by the Adams administration since taking office. The Democratic Socialist flatly told reporters at an unrelated press conference in Manhattan that he would stop all sweeps of makeshift settlements come the new year when he is sworn in as mayor. “If you are not connecting homeless New Yorkers to the housing that they so desperately need, then you cannot deem anything you’re doing to be a success,” Mamdani said of the Adams policy, which has faced criticism for not getting those homeless people into permanent homes after the sweeps.

This week a Washington Post puff piece leaped to the defense of the progressive district attorneys propelled into office by the campaign cash of billionaire George Soros, portraying these prosecutors as well-meaning reformers besieged by racist Republicans. But while Soros’ left-wing fans thrill to the way his funding has fundamentally transformed criminal justice across America, here’s what they won’t acknowledge: The results have been disastrous. Through both direct and indirect donations, Soros has poured money into a staggering number of DA races across the country. By 2023, progressive prosecutors had jurisdiction over at least 20% of the US population,
