For Minors

A group of 19 Democrat-led states and Washington, D.C., filed a lawsuit against the Trump Administration over a declaration that aims to restrict gender transition treatment for minors. The lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services; its Secretary, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.; and its inspector general comes after the declaration issued last week described treatments such as puberty blockers, hormone treatments and gender surgeries as unsafe and ineffective for children experiencing gender dysphoria. The declaration also warned doctors they could be excluded from federal health programs, including Medicare and Medicaid, if they provide these treatments to minors.

For Ballots, Now Trump Conservatives Are

Look for wild vote fluctuations for days after polls close. Counteroffensives include an executive order by President Trump followed by a challenge to Mississippi's counting process that has not reached the U.S. Supreme Court. Ohio's legislature voted to require all its ballots to arrive on election night to be tallied. With constant pressure from liberal activists, some states now dispatch mail-in ballots 45-60 days before Election Day and allow the counting of such absentee ballots as many as three weeks afterward, creating an election trimester that causes vote tallies to wildly fluctuate days after polls close and increasingly erodes American's trust.
Today, the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) announced a multi-tiered operation targeting more than 100 Money Service Businesses (MSBs) operating along the southwest border. These MSBs -- which provide financial services outside of a formal bank -- are being examined for potential non-compliance with regulations designed to detect money laundering and combat illicit finance. (snip) "At President Trump's direction, the Treasury Department is utilizing all tools to stop terrorist cartels, drug traffickers, and human smugglers" said Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent.

Despite constant criticism from his detractors, Trump appears emboldened in his second term to persevere on issues he campaigned on (snip.) As President Trump prepares to ramp up his immigration crackdown next year, his second term has proven to be a case study in doubling down on hallmark agenda items like immigration, tariffs and eradicating DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) initiatives from government. On the three issues on which he's received some of the most ardent and aggressive pushback, Trump has doubled down in ways that go beyond even his first term.

After last week's near unanimous approval by San Francisco's Board of Supervisors (our 11-member city council) to establish a "fund" to accept and distribute so-called Reparations to qualified city residents, will Mayor Lurie veto it? (snip) Make no mistake, this figure goes far beyond a 7-figure payout. The 100-point Reparations proposal includes the highly-publicized $5 million lump-sum payments to eligible black adults, and adds annual income supplements to match the area median income for 250 years. It also features comprehensive black debt forgiveness, prioritizes housing assistance, and provides targeted programs in black education and black health. (snip)
On March 23, President Trump revoked the security clearances of several Biden administration officials and others, including Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and Hillary Clinton.(snip) One of the people whose security clearance was revoked is attorney Mark Zaid.(snip) In May, Zaid sued the Trump administration, with ABC describing Zaid as a "whistleblower attorney" who claimed his security clearance was revoked for "improper political retribution." In response to that suit, White House spokesman Harrison Fields said, "The decision to grant any individual access to the nation's secrets is a sensitive judgment call entrusted to the President (snip) and reviewing the President's clearance decisions falls well beyond the judiciary's authority." Now, a radical Leftist judge has ruled that President Trump cannot revoke Zaid's security clearance.
Somali fraud scheme not limited to Minnesota: Missouri State Treasurer Vivek Malek is imposing new requirements that remittance payment businesses ensure that customers are lawfully in the U.S. before they can send money to foreign countries. He hopes other states will follow suit. (snip) Malek said his research showed that more than $200 billion leaves the United States annually through remittances, with Mexico alone receiving $52 billion. Some sizable portion of that involves illegal immigrants, most of whom crossed the border during the Biden years.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Amy Potter said the government failed to sufficiently justify the change in FEMA's Emergency Management Performance Grant program, which supports disaster readiness efforts, including training and staffing. (snip) The administration said in October that states need to recount their population figures and remove individuals who have been deported as a condition of funding, but a group of Democrat-led states sued over the new requirement last month.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture has intervened in the Potter Valley Hydroelectric Project proceedings currently being considered by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). (snip) If the plan goes through as proposed it will devastate hundreds of family farms and wipe out more than a century of agricultural tradition in in Potter Valley," said USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins. (snip) If those dams are removed (snip) more than 600,000 northern California residents, including hundreds of family farms, will lose a century-old water supply. State policymakers support these efforts. The Governor has openly boasted about removing dams across California to please environmental activists.
In a tough blow for the Trump administration, the U.S. Supreme Court shot down a bid by President Trump to deploy the National Guard to Chicago. (snip) In its order the majority claimed that, "At this preliminary stage, the Government has failed to identify a source of authority that would allow the military to execute the laws in Illinois." It further argued that Trump "has not invoked a statute that provides an exception to the Posse Comitatus Act," and that, "Instead he relies on inherent constitutional authority that (snip) allows him to use the military to protect federal personnel and property."

In an interview with Harrison Berger, formerly of Drop Site News (which received $250,000 from George Soros), Tucker Carlson claimed that the recent TPUSA poll showing that a majority of attendees thought that “Radical Islam” was the greatest threat to America was really an Israeli “op”.
“I don’t know anyone in the United States in the last 24 years who’s been killed by radical Islam.” Tucker Carlson claimed. He argued that, “I believe in measuring reality a little more empirically” meaning that since, presumably Tucker didn’t know them personally, they don’t matter and don’t exist.
Newsguard will note for their information filtering system, that Mayor Jacob Frey did not directly say residents of the region will start killing ICE agents. However, Mayor Frey did say if the ICE deportation operations continue, ICE agents are likely to be killed. The obvious question is, ‘who will do the killing, Jacob‘?
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey have built the illegal alien powder-keg while both have financially benefitted from the subsequent Somali community fraud, then together they blame the presence of federal law enforcement -Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)- agents for striking the match.

The Obama Library Is Ugly for a Reason

I've written before about the problems with the Obama Presidential Center in Chicago.
In October, people mocked Barack Obama's post about the library. Obama said it would be a "hub for change" for people to "get inspired." The pomposity of it all. (X) (X) Like everything having to do with Obama, it started at one price — $500 million — but then the cost of it ballooned. Now it's at $830 million. Sounds like the Affordable Care Act that was never affordable.
As I noted, it has to be one of the ugliest buildings I've ever seen. It reminds me of the dismal gray buildings of the Soviet Union

Minnesota Lt. Gov. and U.S. Senate candidate Peggy Flanagan was seen on a Somali TV station wearing a hijab at a mall, as a widespread fraud scandal implicating some Somalis plagues the state.
"The Somali community is part of the fabric of the state of Minnesota," Flanagan said, looking into the camera.
“The Dems are the ones who worked with Epstein, not the Republicans,” Trump said. “Release all of their names, embarrass them, and get back to helping our Country!”
This is a reversal from earlier this week, when Trump actually defended Bill Clinton and decried the exposure of “other people that innocently met Jeffrey Epstein years ago.”
While taking questions from reporters at Mar-a-Lago on Monday, Trump told reporters that he’s “always gotten along with Bill Clinton.” Trump added, “I hate to see photos come out of him, but this is what the Democrats, mostly Democrats, and a couple of bad Republicans, are asking for.”
New York City’s mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani has lined up a slate of familiar names to Hollywood for his inaugural committee, with a massive New Year’s Day block party planned to be held by City Hall. As is tradition, Mamdani will be sworn in as mayor in Times Square, just minutes after the ball has dropped to welcome the new year. Sen. Bernie Sanders and New York attorney general Letitia James will swear him in. (Snip) Mamdani, of course, is Hollywood royalty himself. As the son of filmmaker Mira Nair, he has been surrounded by the trappings of the entertainment business
The California DMV is facing a lawsuit brought on behalf of nearly 20,000 immigrant truckers over the state’s plans to revoke their commercial drivers’ licenses (CDLs).
The Asian Law Caucus and the Sikh Coalition, along with the law firm Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP, filed the lawsuit on Tuesday in an effort to stop the California DMV from canceling the CDLs, which the complaint says would “result in mass work stoppages” starting Jan 5, 2026.
“This class-action lawsuit is brought on behalf of the Jakara Movement and five commercial drivers who have been deprived of their rights and livelihoods,” a joint statement from the Asian Law Caucus and Sikh Coalition said.
The third-ranking leader in the House of Representatives, who also happens to hail from Minnesota, demanded answers from Gov. Tim Walz after a YouTuber tried to confront employees of an alleged daycare center that had misspelled signage and no signs of activity outside but reportedly received $4 million in state funds. The video went viral this week amid the burgeoning scandal enveloping the Walz administration that notably included at least $1 billion lost to alleged social services fraud largely tied to the Somali community in the Twin Cities.
The CEO of the Obama Foundation offered an inside look at the former president's controversial presidential library, addressing lingering concerns over its design.
The monumental project in Chicago is all compiled on a 20-acre campus filled with parks, playgrounds, and the 225-foot 'eye-sore' museum tower.
The CEO of the Obama Foundation, Valerie Jarrett, told CBS News Chicago that they are excited to open their doors next June.
Despite her enthusiasm, locals have raised concerns about its appearance.
However, the CEO explained how this investment and project will demonstrate how diversity can 'better represent the community in which we're located and be a national model for how you can be inclusive and have a world-class

As Hillary Clinton closed in on the presidential nomination in the spring of 2016, FBI field officers advised colleagues at headquarters to press her on the foreign donations flowing to the Clinton Foundation while she steered American foreign policy and whether she had used the charity as a campaign piggy bank.
But the FBI HQ in Washington — a city in which the former secretary of state and first lady wields enormous influence — let the trail go cold.
FBI New York Assistant Director in Charge Diego Rodriguez advised agents in Washington to ask Clinton several questions about the foundation, which are reproduced in full in documents released

It's Democrat state AG's that are implementing the full craziness of the Democrat agenda in their lawsuits and they get away with it because the regime media ignores them. The RNC should keep track of these lawsuits on 80-20 issues, force them into public view, and use them to pound the Democrat Party every day.
