Oregon election officials are set to begin removing hundreds of thousands of inactive voters from the state's registration rolls (snip) after years of inaction, mounting public pressure, and lawsuits against the state in recent months.

(snip) [O]regon paused removals in 2017. (snip) "[I]'s astounding that they haven't been removing anybody from the voter force in almost a decade because this is very basic 101 level election administration," said Jason Snead, executive director of the Honest Elections Project.

Similarities Between Medicaid Fraud In

Minnesota and Maine are two different states, but have a lot in common when it comes to Medicare fraud. Steve Robinson, an independent journalist and editor of the Maine Wire (snip) pointed out some of the incredible similarities (snip.) "we find (snip) home care LLCs and go knock on the door and nobody's home (snip) and we'll find that they've also got LLCs in Minnesota (snip.) "These are really the same. It's one organization (snip.) I think that the government of Somalia is backing this as a nation-building project to increase the flow of remittance money into the country," he said.
Americans who remember how an incident in Minneapolis six yeas ago plunged the whole country into a summer of rioting -- then years of elevated criminal violence -- should think carefully about where the protests over the death of Renee Good are leading. Like the killing of George Floyd, Good's tragedy is being exploited for a political purpose with the radical activists (snip) demanding an end to (snip) not only the agency, ICE, but the enforcement of the nation's democratically enacted immigration laws. It's the protesters veto, an assertion by activists of a right to cancel laws they don't like.
President Trumps said Tuesday that he's preparing to halt federal funding to sanctuary cities and states on Feb. 1 -- potentially yanking billions in revenue in response to laws barring cooperation with immigration agents. "Starting February 1, we're not making any payments to sanctuary cities or states having sanctuary cities because they do everything possible to protect criminals at the expense of American citizens," Trump said during a speech in Detroit. "It breeds fraud and crime and all of the other problems that come. So we're not making any payment to anybody that supports sanctuary cities.
The Trump administration is ending Temporary Protected Status (DPS) for Somalia, affecting several thousand Somalis currently living in the U.S. and several hundred living in Minnesota under the protection. Somali migrants with TPS will be required to leave the country by March 17. "Temporary means temporary," DHS Secretary Kristi Noem told Fox News Digital in a statement. "Country conditions in Somalia have improved to the point that it no longer meets the law's requirements for Temporary protected Status." "Further, allowing Somali nationals to remain temporarily in the United States is contrary to our national interests," Noem added. "We are putting Americans first.

Former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said in a statement posted on X that they do not plan to appear for their scheduled depositions this week. "Every person has to decide when they have seen or had enough and are ready to fight for this country, its principles and it's principles, no matter the consequences, the Clintons wrote in a 8-page letter. "For us, now is that time." (snip) [Congressman James] Comer said Tuesday morning, "We will move next week in the House Oversight Committee . . . to hold Bill Clinton in contempt of Congress."
Amid ongoing investigations into public fraud in Minnesota Republicans are preparing a bill to make such schemes deportable offenses and appear willing to even explore denaturalization. (snip) Speaking on the "John Solomon Reports" podcast this week, Rep. Buddy Carter, R-GA, touted the importance of a planned bill to make convicted fraudsters of foreign origins eligible for deportation and denaturalization. Sen. Marsha Blackburn has sponsored the bill in the upper chamber. (snip) It remains unclear whether the legislation will secure enough support to overcome the Senate filibuster and become law.
The Minnesota ICE Watch group of which slain Minneapolis protester Renee Good was a member shared a detailed manual providing instructions on fighting police officers to free arrested radicals from their grasp, comparing each "de-arrest" to a "micro-intifada." (snip) The manual -- which says on the front cover it was published in the Spring of 2024 --outlines four tactics for interfering with arresting officers, such as the best kind of grip to use while yanking someone in custody out of their hands, or even suggestions for "pushing and pulling an officer" off an arrestee.
Ibrahima Diop, the finance boss at Minneapolis Public Schools (MPS), has been placed on administrative leave, Alpha News has learned. Alpha News has reported extensively on Diop and questionable contracts with Frontier Transportation Services, hired by MPS to transport Homeless and Highly Mobile (HHM) students in passenger vans. Additionally, another transportation company under contract with the district was filmed dropping children off at the now-closed Quality "Learing" [sic.] Center -- a moment many believe was staged to make the site appear active. MEISA Transportation Services were recorded outside of the Minneapolis daycare made famous in a Nick Shirley video for misspelling the word "learning."
If you had a bad case of political whiplash following the events of Tuesday and Wednesday, you're not alone. Usually it takes weeks if not months or Democrats and the media to put the full measure of their hypocrisy on display; this week, it took less than 24 hours. (snip) Representative Mike Levin, a Democrat from California, in an ironic harbinger of things to come the very next day, gave a heartfelt plea asking his colleagues to honor the officers who stood between "democracy and chaos" hat afternoon. (snip) But just hours later, those same Democrats once again took the side of "chaos" (snip.)

An FBI supervisor who openly opposed Donald Trump on social media played a crucial role in igniting the controversial Arctic Frost probe, pressing to add the former president as a formal subject of the investigation and circulating articles from liberal activists and leftwing news sources to make his case (snip.) Special Agent Timothy Thibault, who left his role as the assistant agent in charge of its Washington Field Office in August 2022 after his anti-Trump social posts became public, organized the initial electronic communication that authorized the Arctic frost probe.

The Washington National Opera (WNO) is taking its final bow and leaving the Trump-Kennedy Center in what one WNO director called the “takeover” of the institution by President Donald Trump.
“Today, the Washington National Opera announced its decision to seek an amicable early termination of its affiliation agreement with the Kennedy Center and resume operations as a fully independent nonprofit entity,” the opera said in a statement to the New York Times.
The company said its board of trustees voted to move all its upcoming performances out of the center’s 2,364-seat Opera House. They intend to find new locations in Washington, DC, but no leases have yet been signed.

"Dilbert" creator Scott Adams died Tuesday at the age of 68 after a battle with prostate cancer.
Reports broke Monday that Adams had entered hospice care and was declining at a rapid pace. As of press time, his X account was broadcasting a live video of his friends mourning his death.
Adams was most well-known for his cartoon comic strip "Dilbert", but later became a successful podcaster, hosting "Coffee with Scott Adams." He was a vocal supporter of President Donald Trump.
Prior to his death, Adams embraced Christianity.
Faith leaders, union representatives and community members are calling for a Day of Truth and Freedom on Friday, Jan. 23 — urging all Minnesotans not to go to work, school or go shopping in response to Operation Metro Surge. Organizers held a news conference Tuesday morning outside of the Hennepin County Government Center in downtown Minneapolis to announce the statewide day of mourning and action. It comes amid ongoing tensions over the federal law enforcement surge in Minnesota that escalated after ICE officer Jonathan Ross fatally shot 37-year-old Minneapolis resident Renee Good last week. Auxiliary Minister JaNaé Bates Imari of
I don’t think anyone would confuse Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson with a sharp legal mind. She often comes across as the poster child for what’s wrong with DEI hires. On Tuesday, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Little v. Hecox, a case that will likely decide whether laws barring biological males from competing on girls’ sports teams are constitutional. Given that Jackson famously admitted during her confirmation hearings that she didn’t know what a woman was — because, as she put it, she’s “not a biologist” — you knew she was bound to be a real spectacle.
The O’Keefe Media Group on Tuesday released video of a Secret Service agent assigned to JD Vance leaking sensitive information to an undercover reporter.
The agent at the center of O’Keefe’s latest sting, Tomas Escotto, is a Biden holdover and has only been a US citizen since 2018.
Escotto told the O’Keefe Media Group undercover reporter details about how Vance is surrounded and revealed advanced security procedures.
The Secret Service agent also revealed Vance’s future travel plans and sent images from Air Force Two while he was traveling with Vance.

Former Vice President Kamala Harris is upgrading her Los Angeles real estate portfolio, trading one celebrity-soaked neighborhood for another.
Harris and her husband Doug Emhoff recently dropped a little over $8 million ($8.15 million) on a 4,000-square-foot, four-bedroom, six-bathroom home in Point Dume, a neighborhood in Malibu that’s home to a who’s who of both Hollywood and — more recently — Silicon Valley power players, the California Post has learned. In recent weeks several Point Dume residents have spotted Emhoff strolling through the neighborhood which rests on a 63-acre promontory perched above one of California’s most famous and exclusive beaches known as Little Dume.
Access to Little Dume, which boasts
President Donald Trump said last week that he was “immediately taking steps to ban large institutional investors from buying more single-family homes” and “will be calling on Congress to codify” the proposal. His advisers need to show him why that’s a bad idea.
Trump promised to “discuss this topic, including further housing and affordability proposals, and more, at my speech in Davos in two weeks.” So there is time to present clear arguments that should convince him to quietly drop the plan.
If we had an audience with the president, we’d first remind him that the government in a free country has no authority to determine who
Social media has become a driver of information, among many other things, but it’s also provided the single greatest argument toward ending women’s suffrage. I’m sorry, but white, crusty, liberal women have killed the case for the 19th Amendment. Should there be a complete and total shutdown of women’s voting rights until we can figure out what’s going on? Maybe. Look, we know what’s going on, to be honest. We killed their hopes of a Hillary Clinton presidency and obliterated Kamala Harris’ shoddy, inept, and overall shambolic 2024 campaign.

Have you ever “taken to the streets” over any issue? Marched in a protest? Chanted whatever some weirdo ordered you to repeat? Maybe, but probably not. The only protests or marches I’ve ever attended were one against war a friend wanted to go to and he didn’t want to drive to DC alone (plus, I’d never been to DC at that point), one I got extra credit for in college involving newspaper strike, and one that was an annual even to “protest” pot laws because we went to meet chicks and get stoned in a crowd – mostly the novelty of it (which is now common).
