State Department cuts off billions of
dollars in funding to Iranian regime
Posted By: FlyRight, 4/28/2026 4:39:21 PM
The State Department said Tuesday it is "taking action" against dozens of entities and individuals behind Iran’s covert financial network, thereby cutting off billions of dollars to the Iranian regime. The actions are part of the United States' maximum pressure campaign against Iran in the midst of the conflict in the Middle East. The U.S. and Israel launched an attack on Iran in February, which killed multiple Iranian leaders. The State Department said it is taking action against 35 individuals and entities helping Iran, including banking networks that enable the transfer of tens of billions of dollars to help Iran evade sanctions.

Republicans see a clear win in Wednesday’s Supreme Court decision striking down Louisiana’s congressional maps and that victory could keep them in control of the House after November’s election.
The Supreme Court, in a major decision, struck down Louisiana’s majority-black House district and weakened the Voting Rights Act, giving Republicans a chance to rewrite the congressional maps, particularly in Southern states.
As a result, Republican-led states could eliminate black and Latino electoral districts. And some strategists are arguing it’s time for the party to get aggressive to keep the House in control and protect President Trump’s agenda.
Some black lawmakers are already worried they’ll be a target in this year’s election.
Former Democrat Rep. Barney Frank in Hospice

Former Democrat Rep. Barney Frank has entered hospice care.
Barney Frank, 86, is in hospice care at his home in Maine, where he resides with his husband. Frank is suffering from congestive heart failure.
Barney Frank was one of the Democrat Reps who authored the Dodd-Frank bill, which was put in place after the 2008 bank crash.
The government arguably caused the failure and then turned around and put in a massive amount of regulations in response to the failure. The Dodd-Frank bill put enormous strain on smaller banks, and eventually, some of the regulations were rolled back.
Ironically, Barney Frank sat on the board of Signature Bank,
Republicans took a bold stand against the radical left’s sacred cow: the so-called Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act. The hearing exposed how the Biden DOJ weaponized this law as a club to smash pro-life Americans while turning a blind eye to violent attacks on pregnancy resource centers and churches.
Freshman Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX) delivered one of the most uncomfortable moments for the abortion lobby in recent memory.
Gill directly confronted Jessica Waters, Assistant Professor of Justice, Law & Criminology and a vocal advocate for abortion access, asking which BARBARIC abortion method she preferred.
In the wake of the latest attempt by garbage leftist idiots to murder President Donald Trump, prominent leftists are deflecting, descending into nearly psychotic redirection, or trying to shift the blame to Trump himself, even after promising to wage war on the president and joking about watching his wife become a widow. Impotent, mindless, and based in fantasy, leftist culture is a violent and childish culture, sowing ruin but pretending innocence. The Law of Merited Impossibility is undefeated as a concept: We absolutely didn’t try to kill you, and you deserve our efforts to kill you. The old Babylon Bee joke headline still lands: “Trump Indicted For Inciting Assassination Attempt.”

Two people have been indicted on federal charges related to the attack on TPUSA reporter Savanah Hernandez.
TPUSA reporter Savanah Hernandez was brutally assaulted earlier this month at the Whipple ICE facility in Minneapolis.
“I am extremely grateful to the DOJ and FBI for how swiftly they handled this case. I have been assaulted by violent left wing activists multiple times and there has never been a response, so to see the FBI and the justice system utilized to fight back against left wing violence is extremely appreciated,” Savanah Hernandez said in a statement to The Gateway Pundit.
First Lady Melania Trump’s supporters are organizing a grassroots boycott of advertisers for ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! amid a report saying that Disney is “ready to pull” the plug following the left-wing TV host’s comments fantasizing about President Donald Trump’s death just days before the third documented assassination attempt on his life. Kimmel is facing intense backlash from scores of fed-up Melania Trump fans after he called the First Lady an “expectant widow” before a gunman attempted to assassinate President Trump at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner on Saturday evening.
Farage: My Home Was Firebombed
4 replies
Arsonists targeted Nigel Farage by pushing a firebomb through the letterbox of his home, the Reform Party leader has revealed. The Mail has more.
Farage, 62, said the petrol bomb fortunately burnt out before causing any significant damage during the incident last year.
He has labelled the event as an “outright arson attempt”.
Farage recalled how the attack, which came at the start of 2025, occurred while he was not inside the property – with the politician discovering the damage only when he opened his front door.
Police have investigated, but as yet no suspects have been identified.
For a liberal democracy with an educated population, we’re in a curious position: everybody is talking about something nobody knows anything about! I’m referring to digital ID and the fact the Government hasn’t put its plans in writing. As a result, most of the discussion is highly speculative: a mixture of hopes – ‘it’s nothing to worry about’ – and fears – ‘it’s a digital prison’.
Yet the digital ID consultation, which runs until May 5th, contains significant pieces of information which, along with insights from experts giving evidence to the Home Affairs Parliamentary Committee, forms a clear picture of the Government’s intentions.
Last Tuesday, Taiwanese President Lai Ching-te, planning a visit to Taiwan’s sole African ally Eswatini, was abruptly informed that Seychelles, Madagascar, and Mauritius would deny overflight rights to his aircraft. The trip was then canceled — an unprecedented humiliation and major diplomatic setback for Taiwan.
Everybody knows that Beijing was behind this latest stunt. What gives this episode its deeper strategic meaning, however, is its proximity to another major political development: the high-profile visit to China by Cheng Li-wen, chair of Taiwan’s opposition Kuomintang (KMT) party. During her trip, Cheng met with Chinese Communist Party leader Xi Jinping in a summit ...

ederal grand jury in North Carolina on Tuesday indicted former FBI Director James Comey on charges related to his posting of a photo of shells on a beach with the inscription "86-47" that prosecutors alleged was a threat to President Donald Trump.
The charges will be unveiled at a DOJ news conference at 4 p.m. ET, officials said.
It is expected that one of the charges will fall under a statute that prohibits a person from "knowingly and willfully deposits for conveyance in the mail or for a delivery from any post office —
A federal judge in Maryland has sided with a group of immigrants from countries flagged for terror risks and national security threats, blocking USCIS from pausing their green card applications.
U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland, Judge George L. Russell III, an Obama appointee, issued a sweeping preliminary injunction on Friday, blocking USCIS Director Joseph B. Edlow from enforcing two key Policy Memoranda (PM-602-0192 and PM-602-0194) that placed adjudicatory holds on green card (Form I-485) applications from nationals of dozens of “Countries of Identified Concern.”

Woke Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., lashed out at a LindellTV reporter when pressed about massive discrepancies in her congressional financial disclosure forms, which once listed her net worth as high as $30 million before an amended filing reduced it to under $95,000.
In a hallway exchange captured on video, the reporter reminded Omar that she had previously called her “stupid” for asking about the filing and asked how she could make “such a big mistake,” prompting Omar to reply, “I still think you’re stupid for asking me anything.”
When the journalist pressed for an explanation for LindellTV’s audience and “the American people,” Omar snapped, “I don’t want to tell you jack s—t.
In a skit last Thursday, ABC’s late-night host Jimmy Kimmel pretended to be the host of the White House Correspondents’ Dinner and remarked of Melania Trump, “You have a glow like an expectant widow.” Given that President Trump had already survived two assassination attempts, it was tasteless even at the time. But the remark aged even more poorly when a third aspiring assassin crashed the actual event days later.In a rare statement, the understandably shaken first lady condemned Kimmel, saying, “His monologue about my family isn’t comedy — his words are corrosive and deepens the political sickness within America.”
The indictment of Dr. Anthony Fauci’s former adviser David Morens Tuesday revived calls for the Justice Department to prosecute Fauci himself for allegedly lying to Congress about funding risky research in China before the COVID-19 pandemic.
Just two weeks remain before the five-year legal deadline on May 11 to indict Fauci for denying under oath that he funded “gain of function” experiments that modified bat coronaviruses in the same city where the pandemic started.
Morens, 78, was charged with one count of conspiracy, two counts of destruction, alteration, or falsification of records in federal investigations and two counts of concealment, removal,

has ‘completed demolition’ of Voting

The Supreme Court’s liberal justices called their colleagues’ decision clawing back race-based redistricting on Wednesday a “now-completed demolition” of the Voting Rights Act.
In a 48-page dissent, Justice Elena Kagan held up the landmark 1965 law as helpful to the nation’s progress on racial discrimination.
“At this last stage, the Court’s gutting of Section 2 puts that achievement in peril,” Kagan wrote.
“I dissent because Congress elected otherwise,” she continued. “I dissent because the Court betrays its duty to faithfully implement the great statute Congress wrote. I dissent because the Court’s decision will set back the foundational right Congress granted of racial equality in electoral opportunity. I dissent.”
I spent many years in the corporate world, working on big projects of one sort or another. On any such big project, it seems that there was almost always one person who spent every day for the months (or years) that the work went on with his/her feet up on the desk, smoking and joking, and never joining in the work. But when the work was done, the project closed out, the final audits done, when it was time for a celebratory champagne, cake, and photograph session, this person was always first in line for the champagne and cake, and at the front of all the photographs.
Former Rep. Barney Frank, a liberal icon who was a key architect of the landmark Wall Street regulations Democrats enacted in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis, has entered hospice care at his home in Maine. And as one of his last acts, he is preparing to release a book repudiating his party’s left flank. A champion of liberal causes during his 32 years representing Massachusetts in the House, Frank says progressive Democrats have “embraced an agenda that goes beyond what’s politically acceptable.” “Until we separate ourselves from that agenda, we don’t win,” he said in an interview Tuesday.
Sure, it's not antisemitism. It's a political statement against Bibi Netanyahu or something.
A benefit concert for the victims of the Bondi Beach massacre in Australia has been canceled because the choir that was scheduled to sing refused to share the stage with a Jewish choir group.
You can't make this up. Surprised to find an action like this from the cultural elite? I'm not.

In lighter news, the internet was abuzz during the recent White House visit from King Charles III and Queen Camilla of the United Kingdom. Why? Cameras caught the U.S. president getting a little handsy with his wife, Melania. [Tweet]
Of course, it’s not standard protocol for any president to pat his wife’s behind in the middle of an official state visit, in full view of the media and the world, but remember: This is President Donald Trump. He breaks rules like this, and people often love him or hate him for it, and he seems to relish every minute of it.
The Federal Reserve is reported to be historically apolitical, meaning all considerations are absent of politics. However, no individual Federal Reserve Chairman has been more overtly political than Jerome Powell.
Today, after announcing yet again the Fed will not lower interest rates, Chairman Jerome Powell announced he will not leave the board of the federal reserve even after his term has expired and he is replaced by recently advanced Kevin Warsh. Powell said he plans to maintain a “low profile” as a governor, but it will be the first time since 1948 that a Federal Reserve Chairman has stayed on the board at the end of their chairmanship.
