Los Angeles County considers creating
ICE-free zones
Posted By: ConservativeYankee, 1/13/2026 7:39:27 PM
Los Angeles County is considering designating ICE-free zones as a response to the Trump administration’s crackdown on illegal immigration. The proposal comes from Los Angeles County Supervisors Lindsey Horvath and Hilda Solis, who sit on a board that governs the county. The plan is for an ordinance to be drafted and brought before the board in 30 days. Speaking during Tuesday’s Board of Supervisors meeting, Horvath said, “Our federal government is killing its own citizens” in broad daylight and in front of witnesses and cameras. "People have been shot; people have been killed; families have been shattered,” said Horvath.

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.

A Maryland Democratic legislator is proposing a measure to prevent U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers hired during the second Trump administration from joining state police.
The measure by Delegate Adrian Boafo is titled the ICE Breaker Act of 2026 and will be introduced when the General Assembly returns for the new session next week, according to local NBC affiliate News4.
“Everywhere I go in my district, folks are asking, what are we going to do about ICE?” Boafo said. “There’s only so much the state can do, but you know what I could do? Make sure that those ICE officers never have a job here in the state of Maryland.

Federal prosecutors have charged a Maryland man with orchestrating a years-long theft scheme inside the U.S. House of Representatives, alleging he stole hundreds of government-issued cell phones and sold them for personal profit.
The findings of this case were revealed by the Department of Justice on Monday.
Christopher Southerland, 43, of Glen Burnie, was arrested Friday after a federal indictment was unsealed in U.S. District Court, according to U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro. Authorities said the stolen devices were worth more than $150,000.
According to the indictment, Southerland worked as a system administrator for the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure from April 2020 through July 2023.
Democrats who have supported efforts to ban stock trading by members of Congress are frustrated by a new Republican-led bill that they say comes up short. But at least one has already signed on to support it.
“If the choice in front of us is either do nothing or do something to rein in the corruption around here, then I’m willing to work with anybody to make progress,” Rep. Josh Riley said.
Riley, who represents a swing district in New York, said while he’s also backing legislation “that goes a lot farther,” he won’t let the “perfect be the enemy of the good.”
“I think we should force everybody to divest their stocks.
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.

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.

A Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, government agency is promoting an upcoming class by local leftist groups on “civil disobedience” from its social media accounts.
The city’s Commission on Human Relations (CHR) reposted a joint announcement on Saturday advertising the event by the Pittsburgh chapters of Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) and the 50501 Movement on Instagram and X.
The three-hour Tuesday evening talk will feature an unnamed “practitioner and trainer with extensive experience” and civil rights lawyer Mike Healey, according to the posts.
As U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents surged into Minneapolis, Minnesota, one local McDonald’s made a public display against the upholding of federal immigration law.
The Daily Wire posted an image of the sign, which was captioned “NO ICE ACCESS IN THIS BUSINESS,” to social media platform X on Thursday afternoon.
The sign was clear that it was intended as a “NOTICE TO ALL LAW ENFORCEMENT & IMMIGRATION AGENTS.” “This is a private business,” it said.
“You are not permitted to enter non-public areas of this business (including offices, break rooms, storage areas, and staff-only areas) without a valid JUDICIAL WARRANT signed by a judge or magistrate.”
The Trump administration has canceled the Biden administration’s rules forcing banks to ignore immigration status for loan applications.
On Monday, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and the Justice Department eliminated the Biden guidelines that ordered lenders not to consider immigration status when evaluating loan and credit applications, a rule that had major implications for mortgages, credit cards, and auto loans, Bloomberg reported.
The Biden administration maintained that considering immigration status would violate anti-racism laws that ensure equal and fair lending practices.
The Biden era rules were intended to help anchor illegal and temporary visa workers into Americans’ communities, for example, by providing funds for homes, autos, and apartment leases.

Two Republican lawmakers demanded Monday that the National Institutes of Health halt more than $3 million in taxpayer funding for “sketchy” research on live bats involving “experimental infection studies” with “SARS-related coronaviruses” like the one that sparked the COVID-19 pandemic.
Sen. Joni Ernst (R-Iowa) and Rep. Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.) called on NIH Director Dr. Jay Bhattacharya to “immediately … stop this batty research,” which was prompted by the since-debarred nonprofit EcoHealth Alliance and spurred on by former NIH officials Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Francis Collins, per a letter exclusively obtained by The Post.

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent was told over the weekend that a new Nick Shirley video being released soon - maybe even as early as Monday — is "ten times worse" than the "Quality Learing Center" daycare scam. In Shirley's previous video, he and his source, David Hoch, who has been investigating this billion-dollar-plus scam for years, discovered multiple daycare centers in one building without children in them for years. And this is where Hoch says is the heart of the ongoing continuing criminal enterprise.
Hoch says the new video will show that most of these companies are Somali-owned, and his and Shirley's visit to these companies found zero companies.

"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.

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."
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).
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."
State Representative Gabby Salinas (D-Memphis) introduced a bill last week that seeks to interfere with the operations of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in Tennessee.
House Bill (HB) 1482 would prevent ICE agents from using areas such as public parking lots, vacant lots, public garages, public schools, and religious institution property as a “staging area.”
The bill defines a “staging area” as an “area that is used to assemble, mobilize, and deploy vehicles, equipment, or materials, and related personnel.”
“No child or person should fear being abducted or risk having their family ripped apart when they leave their home,” Salinas said on Facebook. “We are losing friends, neighbors,
Federal investigators have no plans to charge the ICE agent involved in the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good, and the Justice Department won't open a civil rights investigation into the incident from last week in Minneapolis.
The agent fired three shots after Good, 37, accelerated her SUV while he was in front of the car during an immigration enforcement operation that Good and other anti-ICE activists were attempting to obstruct.
The FBI took over the case from local authorities, and continues to review his conduct and physical evidence, including his service weapon. However, sources close to the investigation say the likelihood of criminal charges has decreased, though the decision isn't final.

(snip)The president’s saying he’s now considering taking military action inside Iran, do you want the U.S. to get involved like that?” Bolduan asked Fetterman. “Sure, absolutely. And now, if it continues to make more sense, absolutely. I think I was the only Democrat that fully supported our strike of their Iranian nuclear facilities last year. And now, by then, without those kinds of strikes, Iran could have acquired a nuclear bomb,” the Keystone State senator responded. Key national security officials with the Trump administration—
State Representative Aftyn Behn (D-Nashville) announced on Monday that she will not run for Congress in 2026, citing the “unimaginable toll” her special election campaign took on her health last year.
Behn made the announcement less than two months following her December 2 concession speech following her loss to U.S. Representative Matt Van Epps (R-TN-07), when she suggested she may challenge the newly elected Republican during the 2026 midterm elections. Both candidates ran last year to fill the seat vacated by former U.S. Representative Mark Green upon his retirement.
“Running for this race was really tough, and after much consideration, I’ve decided to run only for reelection to my State House seat,”
