California Advances Controversial ‘Stop
Nick Shirley Act’
Posted By: ConservativeYankee, 5/28/2026 7:42:19 AM
California Assembly Bill 2624, dubbed by critics the “Stop Nick Shirley Act,” passed the California Assembly on Tuesday, raising concerns among opponents that undercover journalism and fraud investigations could be restricted—including investigations conducted by independent journalist Nick Shirley. Shirley, who uncovered hundreds of millions of dollars of daycare fraud in Minnesota and hospice fraud in California, took to X to share his thoughts on the vote. According to the bill’s text, AB 2624 would “prohibit a person from posting on the internet the personal information or image of a designated immigration support services provider, employee, or volunteer, or other individuals residing at the same home address.”

The June 2024 presidential debate between then-President Joe Biden (D) and then-GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump was inarguably one of the most consequential events in American political history, largely because it proved to the American people beyond a shadow of a doubt that the occupant of the Oval Office was unwell. As we all know, it led to Biden withdrawing from the presidential race three weeks later after essentially being forced out by his fellow Democrats. It was a reckoning of sorts for the Democrat Party, the Biden-Harris administration, and the mainstream media, all of whom played starring roles in the deliberate years-long cover-up of Biden's decline,
The Communist Twelver Shi’ite mayor of New York City, Zohran Mamdani, made a major announcement on Tuesday: he is beginning to implement the Marxist seizure of property in New York City.
He did not, of course, state that in so many words. As Marxists always do, he couched his plans in the language of social justice, claiming that he was striking out against bad landlords and providing an opportunity for all New Yorkers to live in decent, fairly-priced housing. And as is always the case with Marxist promises, Mamdani’s big announcement was an obvious and flagrant lie to cover up for his seizure of private property, not so much

Republican Tennessee Rep. Tim Burchett is calling for the return of hanging as a federal execution method in response to one of the most depraved crimes in recent memory: the months-long torture, rape, and murder of 19-year-old Isabella Stroupe in Charlotte, North Carolina.
In a viral X post on Sunday, Burchett directly quoted a detailed account of Stroupe’s horrific death and asserted, “I have a bill to bring back hanging. Let’s see if all the tough talk by Congress holds up. Support the Drop Act.” Stroupe, 19, was found dead in an east Charlotte apartment in early May. According to court affidavits and police reports, she had been bound to
O’Keefe Media Group has released a new undercover report revealing that Sean Hudson, who is the Washington Nationals’ Director of Community Relations, admits to discrimination against starting pitcher Trevor Williams because of his Catholic faith, digitally surveilling fans who attend Nationals Park, and having a communist agenda.
Talking about Williams, Hudson stated that “he is very Catholic,” noting that the Los Angeles Dodgers featured a drag group that was anti-Catholic during a Pride Night they hosted. The group, which calls itself “Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence,” was criticized after wearing nun costumes and performing on a crucifix. Baseball stadiums should be a place where everyone feels welcomed, like 100%.
Where’s the beef? Not in Texas — at least, not as much as it used to be.
Texas barbecue joints are shutting their doors across the Lone Star State as sky-high beef prices turn brisket — once the centerpiece of a blue-collar meal — into a luxury item that many customers can no longer afford.
From Houston suburbs to rural smokehouses, pitmasters say soaring wholesale beef costs, inflation and shrinking customer traffic are crushing margins and forcing some of the state’s most celebrated BBQ institutions out of business.
Sharia’s Growing Influence on U.S. Finance

One of the areas where Sharia law appears to be making inroads into American society is through the U.S. financial system.
Under Sharia, or Islamic, law, charging interest (“riba”) on loans or earning interest on deposits is forbidden for even observant Muslims living in America, a strange anachronism in a country where interest- and credit-based finance is a cornerstone of the economy.
According to Sharia-compliant fatwas, or rulings, recently issued by the Fiqh Council of North America, Muslims are prohibited even from investing in the stocks of any companies whose interest-based debt exceeds 30% of their market capitalization, or whose interest-based deposits exceed 30% of the market cap of their total equity.
Non-whites are set to become the majority for the first time in the US by 2050, a situation mirrored in up to 16 states — including New York, New Jersey and Connecticut, according to new census data.
The expected transformation reflects astonishing demographic changes projected to sweep across America by between 2040 and 2050, fueled by international and internal migration, as well as falling birthrates, the US Census Bureau figures show.
In 1980, the US was 80% white, but that figure is expected to drop to 47% by 2050 and 44% by 2060. At the state level, some of the shifts are even more striking.
For years, Democrats and their allies in the media swore Joe Biden was sharp as a tack, fully capable, and absolutely fine. Then came the June 2024 debate, and that story collapsed in real time before millions of viewers. The fallout was so bad that Biden's own party forced him off the ticket. He dropped out, spent the rest of his term below the radar, and has spent his post-presidency trying to rehabilitate his image. Now, that effort has taken a new and telling turn. Biden filed a lawsuit Tuesday in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia seeking to block the Justice Department from releasing roughly

As we reported. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton won the Republican primary for the Senate seat against Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX).
Cornyn has held the seat for 23 years. President Donald Trump endorsed Paxton, and in the end, Paxton prevailed, winning by 27 percentage points. Unlike Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA), Cornyn's concession was classy. He said he would do what he could to support the Republican ticket and Paxton. Meanwhile, Paxton said he would support Trump's SAVE America Act, one of Trump's biggest priorities to ensure election security.
Trump praised Paxton and Cornyn. He also had a new nickname for Paxton's opponent, Democrat James Talarico. Once you see it,

Americans traveling in Africa who are diagnosed with or suspected of having Ebola will not be brought back to the U.S. for treatment, according to a new report.
The current plan responding to the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo calls for a facility to be set up in Kenya where Americans could be put in quarantine, according to The Wall Street Journal. The report cited sources it did not name.
The outlet said the facility will target “Americans who are exposed to or at high risk of testing positive for the virus in the region, as well as Americans who test positive.” Members of the U.S. Public Health Service

A federal district judge has been disciplined for having extramarital sex with a law enforcement officer inside the judge's chambers during business hours, according to several news reports.
A special committee for the Eleventh Circuit on Friday found the judge, who isn’t named, "demonstrated a gross lack of judgment." Clerks could overhear the intercourse taking place, which was "extremely uncomfortable and troubling" for them, according to Bloomberg Law.
The affair exposed the judge to risks of extortion since his or her spouse wasn't aware of the affair.

U.S-based health aid organization is warning that the outbreak of the deadly Ebola disease in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda is spreading faster than responders can contain it.

Cases are now spreading to larger regional hubs, including the major city of Goma and Uganda's capital, Kampala.
The outbreak has resulted in over 900 suspected cases and at least 223 deaths so far.

Who’s Behind the War on Data Centers?

For many years the Soviet Union, and then Russia, financed the environmental movement in the United States. Their purpose was to suppress American production of oil and gas, and they succeeded to a considerable degree, to their own great benefit. Today, we are in the midst of another kind of race with Communist China–the race to develop superior systems of artificial intelligence. The Chinese Communist Party knows that if it wins this race, it will contribute greatly to its dreams of world domination, while if it loses, China, with its rapidly shrinking population, could be on the way to the garbage dump of history. So the stakes are enormous.
What does it say about the Democrats that they have to spend an inordinate amount of time trying to "normalize" their candidates?
