Republican Texas Rep. Wesley Hunt took part in embedding divisive racial and gender ideology into a Texas health center, despite rallying against diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies during his time in office. Hunt served on the board of Harris Center for Mental Health and Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities from January 2019 to March 2021, during which time he took part in multiple votes to approve contracts and funding for pro-DEI and gender ideology groups, as well as the hiring of a “queer, disabled Latin x” individual.

Ah, the Daily Caller has entered the Texas US Senate Primary race..... is it likely that Hunt has changed his position over time? Rino Senator Cornyn, extreme woke right Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, and Congressman Hunt are the marquee candidates along with John Andefope, Anna Bender, 2020 retread Virgil Bierschwale, Sara Canady, and Gulrez "Gus" Khan We will know a lot more on the evening of March 3rd who survives, and if there is a runoff

Cornyn and Paxton have too much baggage and Hunt was relatively clean. They had to dirty him up before the primary. I think he would be far more effective than the other 2 since he would have fewer distractions from the MSM/Democrat cabal.

This indicates that Hunt has a chance to make it into a run-off. He has been moving up in the polls. If he were to make it to a run-off, he stands a good chance of knocking off Paxton or Cornyn. Reports from some grassroots people here in Texas is that Cornyn is looking old and that Paxton will continue to have personal issues that are unappealing to Texas voters despite his good record of fighting the Feds in court. I am inclined to vote for Hunt, going for a younger gun and a veteran. I would also note that Hunt is a natural born citizen. even in the most restrictive definition, and can be elevated to a national level if he proves to be an effective, charismatic leader.

Virginia Democrats in the state’s House of Delegates introduced a resolution on Tuesday that would establish a task force to investigate the Virginia Military Institute and determine if the historic military college should continue to receive funding. The move is the latest of Virginia Democrats’ efforts to reinvigorate Diversity, Equity and Inclusion policy in the state after much of the DEI mandates and policies were revoked after President Donald Trump was elected in 2024. "This takes away from VMI, takes away from its mission," Virginia Republican Congressman Rob Wittman told Fox News Digital. "I think that it's harmful to the Commonwealth of Virginia, harmful to VMI as an institution,

Austin, we have a problem. Even as many in Texas are pushing back against the rising presence of Islamic Supremacist organizations and hate groups trying to spread their hateful views and calls for the conquest and mass murder of non-Muslims, Austin is welcoming them in. Fresh off declaring January to be ‘Muslim Heritage Month’, the city of Austin, Texas also decided to declare Jan 22nd, “CAIR-Austin” day after the local chapter of the Muslim Brotherhood organization (a violent Islamist movement originally funded by Nazi Germany) whose national organization celebrated the Hamas massacres of Oct 7 and was named an unindicted co-conspirator in a Hamas funding trial.

Federal officials say a Minneapolis kennel employee targeted a CBP detection dog with an anti‑ICE message, marking a new escalation in the city’s hostility toward immigration enforcement. Federal sources report that the message was discovered during a routine welfare check on the K‑9, which was temporarily housed at the facility while supporting federal enforcement operations in the region. Officials say the act wasn’t an accident or a joke, but a deliberate expression of the growing anti‑ICE sentiment that has increasingly spilled over into harassment of personnel, equipment, and now even the animals assigned to protect them.

This is some radical swag. A Muslim nonprofit that’s raked in over $260,000 in taxpayer dough and has ties to Mayor Zohran Mamdani hosted a pop-up fundraiser featuring a twisted array of trinkets promoting Hamas and other US-designated terror groups. During the Muslim American Society’s Jan. 18 support-Sudan event at its Brooklyn youth center, vendors peddled key chains, stickers, pins and other tchotchkes in support of Hamas, Hezbollah and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. Other items at the event, called Thrift4Sudan, featured reverential images of late terrorist leaders Hassan Nasrallah of Hezbollah and Yahya Sinwar of Hamas, and a masked figure resembling

The mass, coordinated anti-ICE protests and walk-outs across the country on Friday—many of them coordinated by organized labor—are the latest sign that unions and left-wing activist groups view resistance to ICE and immigration enforcement as their best opportunity in years to rekindle the rage and rioting that marked the Black Lives Matter movement in 2020. That was the year when, in the name of George Floyd, Black Lives Matter rioters torched a Minneapolis police precinct, smashed in storefronts in Los Angeles, and launched fireworks inside a Seattle Starbucks in addition to violent and sometimes deadly unrest in other large cities such as Atlanta, Milwaukee, and Portland. Roughly five years later,

A federal jury found an alleged gangbanger not guilty of placing a high-priced bounty on one of the biggest faces of the Trump administration’s illegal immigration crackdown. Juan Espinoza Martinez, a Mexican national living unlawfully in the United States, was found not guilty on Thursday of placing a $10,000 hit on Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino. The illegal alien’s defense team argued during the two-day trial that he was not actually a member of the notorious Latin Kings gang and that his statements about the Bovino bounty were just him “re-sharing neighborhood gossip.” “Leftist judges and juries are empowering violent insurrection

California Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom announced Friday that the Golden State will remain a part of the World Health Organization's network, even though the Trump administration just completed the United States' withdrawal from the WHO. Newsom made the announcement after meeting with WHO Director-General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, this week. The governor said California is now the first and only state to join WHO's Global Outbreak Alert & Response Network, which is tasked with rapidly detecting, verifying, assessing, and responding to emerging public health threats.

General Motors has announced that production of the newly updated 2027 Chevrolet Bolt EV will end after approximately 18 months to make way for a gas-powered Buick crossover at its Kansas manufacturing facility. Inside EVs reports that General Motors has confirmed plans to discontinue production of the heavily updated 2027 Chevrolet Bolt electric vehicle after a limited production run of about one and a half years. The decision will allow the automaker to repurpose its Fairfax, Kansas, factory for manufacturing the Buick Envision, a gas-powered crossover currently built in China that will be reshored to the United States. A Chevrolet spokesperson confirmed the move, stating that when
Despite Trump’s efforts, airline DEI

Three million Americans will board a plane today assuming the pilot earned that seat through merit. They shouldn’t. For decades, airlines have subordinated safety to diversity quotas. President Donald Trump rightly recognized this danger: Early on, he ordered the Federal Aviation Administration and Department of Transportation to rescind all DEI initiatives and return to merit-based hiring and promotions. But the FAA can, and must, do more. Federal law makes it illegal to run an airline “without an air carrier operating certificate.” These certificates must “contain terms necessary to ensure safety” and can be revoked if the “public interest” requires it. So the government has leverage. And the stakes are sky-high.

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has started raising money for a legal defense fund after the Department of Justice subpoenaed Walz, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, and with others for allegedly conspiring to impede law enforcement. This also comes as there has been massive fallout from a fraud scandal that has plagued Minnesota. In a message sent out to supporters, Walz said, “Tim Walz here.

For years now, Americans have been told that birthright citizenship is settled law. They’ve been convinced it’s untouchable and obvious. If you’re born on American soil, you’re automatically a U.S. citizen, end of discussion. And if you questioned that idea, it wasn’t just discouraged; you were branded some kind of unconstitutional traitor. This has been the ruse designed to keep this sham going. And as you likely know, President Trump is trying to put an end to this farce. The moment he signed the executive order ending birthright citizenship, the left rushed to court with lawsuits already locked and loaded. So now, the fight over what actually makes someone an American

Mexican officials, all the way up to the presidency, have openly embraced mass migration as a form of accelerating the “reconquista,” the term used to describe the reconquest of U.S. territory that previously belonged to Mexico. This is just one of the meticulously documented revelations in bestselling author and Breitbart News Senior Contributor Peter Schweizer’s new book, The Invisible Coup: How American Elites and Foreign Powers Use Immigration as a Weapon. Radical leftist former Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, commonly known as AMLO, and his protege and current Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum have both publicly embraced the concept of reconquista

This week, the New York Times published an article called "Americans Are Turning Against Gay People," and if you're wondering whether the paper has completely lost touch with reality, the answer is yes. The piece opens with some gushing about a show I’ve never even heard of — and I suspect you haven’t, either — called Heated Rivalry, featuring gay hockey players, suggesting that its success proves "acceptance of queer love continues to grow." The authors, Tessa Charlesworth and Eli Finkel, lament that this is not the case. "We wish we could share that optimism,"

As millions of people braced for a massive winter storm to hit two-thirds of the country, grocery store shelves in the South, Midwest and Northeast started to look a little bare. Two essentials everyone seems to stock up on ahead of winter weather, bread and milk, were hit especially hard. But why do people gravitate to those two items in particular? Milk could go bad if you lose power, after all, and bread isn’t exactly a strong source of nutrition. Accuweather reports the idea of buying milk and bread before a winter storm dates back to the Great Blizzard of 1978, which hit New England.

When Renee Good drove her car into an ICE agent earlier this month, the left tried to gaslight us into believing she was just some innocent bystander who was just at the wrong place, that she’d just dropped her son off at school and wasn’t supposed to be there. That narrative fell apart fast. Good, we soon learned, was a trained anti-ICE agitator who was absolutely there to obstruct law enforcement. Now we're watching the same playbook unfold with 37-year-old Alex Pretti, the armed agitator shot dead by Border Patrol agents on Saturday in Minneapolis while confronting agents. The talking points are already circulating.

The Colorado parents of a man killed Saturday morning by a U.S. Border Patrol officer in Minneapolis said they told their son recently to be careful when protesting. Family members say Alex Jeffrey Pretti, 37, was an intensive care nurse at a Department of Veterans Affairs hospital who cared deeply about people and was upset by President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown in his city. He had participated in protests following the killing of Renee Good, who was originally from Colorado, by a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer on Jan. 7.

Former senior financial security analyst Helen McCaw sent a letter to the UK’s central bank urging the institution to prepare for the economic impact of little green men, the Times of London reported. If such a disclosure comes from the White House, Cambridge-educated McCaw projected in her letter, the revelation send shockwaves through financial markets and the banking system — and inspire general unrest amongst Earthlings.

Accountability is coming” to Minnesota, Attorney General Pam Bondi declared as Democrats try to shift public attention away from large-scale government fraud and towards the chaos they have created in Minneapolis. The promise comes after an ICE officer shot a person dead during a Saturday street scuffle while Democrat-allied activists were trying to disrupt a federal law enforcement action. The shooting prompted Democrats to escalate their claims of murder by ICE and their demands that ICE leave the city amid the expanding federal investigation into what many Republicans say is statewide, migrant-enabled, Democratic-backed taxpayer fraud.

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has gone underground, reportedly hiding out in a bunker out of fear of being wiped out by US airstrikes — as the USS Abraham Lincoln steams toward the Persian Gulf. The 86-year-old supreme leader has moved to a fortified shelter in Tehran connected to a series of elaborate underground tunnels after senior military officials warned of the increasing likelihood of an imminent US attack, Iran International reported, according to the Jerusalem Post. Khamenei has left his youngest son Masoud Khamenei, 53, in charge of running the day-to-day management of the Islamic Republic, the Jerusalem Post reported.

In just one sentence, the Minneapolis police chief tacitly endorsed violence against federal immigration officers, and made it clear why the violence continues to escalate without police interference. President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance partly blamed Minnesota authorities and police after an armed and violent protester ended up getting killed in a struggle with Border Patrol yesterday. After all, Minnesota Democrats are totally on the side of the criminal illegal aliens and rioters, and local police refuse to back up the feds. It seems Trump and Vance were even more right than we realized, based on shocking comments from Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara.
