Bovino made these remarks during an appearance on “Fox News Live.” He emphasized that federal agents have never deployed tear gas against peaceful protesters, underscoring the distinction between peaceful gatherings and violent confrontations. “We always support the First…

At the center of this controversy, Walz’s calls for peace during heightened protests against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) have drawn scrutiny. In a post on social media, Walz urged President Donald Trump to “turn the temperature down,” a phrase many perceived as hypocritical given his earlier inflammatory statements.

Michael Cohen’s recent revelations highlight a troubling dynamic in the relationship between politics and legal prosecution in New York. As the former personal attorney to President Donald Trump, Cohen describes himself as a pawn in a high-stakes game orchestrated by New York state Democrats. His claims portray both Letitia James, the state attorney general, and Alvin Bragg, the Manhattan district attorney, as figures who exploited their offices for political gain. Cohen insists that his cooperation with investigations starting in 2019 stemmed from a desire to reduce his prison sentence after pleading guilty to various charges. He felt pressured to provide…
Jesse Kelly’s recent commentary on “The First” provides a stark assessment of the Democrat Party’s perspective on immigration enforcement, particularly regarding U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). He highlights a troubling disconnect between the party’s voter base and its political leaders, which he attributes to a pervasive ideological influence that permeates various aspects of American culture. Kelly cites a poll indicating that approximately 70 percent of Democrat voters favor abolishing ICE. He argues that such overwhelming support signifies a shift in the party’s core identity. “When you get to a point with any political party in any country, on any…
Virginia’s new governor, Abigail Spanberger, wasted no time making her mark in the governor’s office. On her first day, she implemented a sanctuary state policy by signing numerous executive orders, including one that ended local police cooperation with federal immigration authorities. This abrupt shift signifies a marked change in the state’s approach to immigration enforcement, reversing the previous administration’s directives. Spanberger’s executive order rescinded a program initiated by former Governor Glenn Youngkin that required state police to enforce federal immigration detainer requests. Under Youngkin, the program allowed state officers to collaborate with ICE to apprehend illegal immigrants. In stark contrast,…
A significant decision came from the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, affirming the rights of a Christian ministry in Washington state to maintain its hiring practices. The Yakima Union Gospel Mission, a homeless shelter, focuses on serving the community while requiring its employees to share its beliefs regarding biblical marriage and sexuality. This principle was put to the test against a Washington state law that imposed heavy penalties for hiring individuals aligned with the ministry’s religious convictions. The legal battle, backed by the Alliance Defending Freedom, highlighted the tension between state laws aimed at preventing discrimination based on sexual orientation…
Joe Abraham’s poignant opinion piece highlights a tragic disparity in the public and media response to violent crimes involving illegal immigrants. He poses a striking question: Why is there an outpouring of grief and activism following the death of Renee Good, while his own daughter, Katie Abraham, is largely forgotten? Katie lost her life on January 19, 2025, in a horrific incident that saw her car struck from behind by Julio Cucul Bol, an illegal immigrant driving under the influence. She was just 20 years old. Abraham’s visceral recollection of that day is painful. He recalls how first responders had…

In the interview with CBS…
Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon has taken a firm stand on securing the integrity of American elections, revealing troubling actions by several states that are reportedly withholding crucial Social Security number (SSN) data linked to voter registrations. On Saturday, Dhillon announced the Department of Justice’s intent to sue these states for transparency and to combat potential voter fraud. “The government provides SSNs for voter registration verification. Any SOS hiding behind ‘protect your privacy’ claims is faking and doesn’t care about election integrity,” she stated in a post on X, accompanied by a video offering more insights. Dhillon emphasized the irony…

Winsome Earle-Sears in November sets the stage for a shift in leadership and policy direction.

The recent examination of archaeological findings at Caesarea Maritima sheds light on the historical presence of significant biblical figures, particularly Jesus Christ and Pontius Pilate. Grounded in eyewitness accounts and reinforced by tangible evidence, these discoveries substantiate the belief that Jesus walked the earth, faced crucifixion, and rose again. Excavation efforts at this ancient coastal city have brought to light remnants of its infrastructure and artifacts crucial to understanding early Christianity.

U.S. Border Patrol Commander Gregory Bovino has raised serious concerns about the rising violence from leftist groups in Minneapolis. These groups are not just directing their anger at law enforcement; they are also targeting innocent civilians. According to Bovino, people driving trucks and SUVs are being followed by protestors who mistakenly believe their vehicles belong to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) or the Border Patrol. “If they even think you’re law enforcement, then you’re getting it also,” he stated. This warning reflects a troubling trend where violence and harassment extend beyond intended targets, impacting ordinary Americans. During an exclusive interview…
National Guard troops have been deployed in Minneapolis, driving through the streets in Humvees as unrest grows over Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids. This isn’t just a local response; it is part of a larger narrative about law enforcement and national authority amid escalating tensions. President Trump has made it clear that he is willing to act decisively. He recently stated, “If the corrupt politicians of Minnesota don’t obey the law and stop the professional agitators and insurrectionists from attacking the patriots of ICE, I will institute the Insurrection Act.” His statement underscores a point of frustration: the belief…
PETA has caught attention once again, but this time for making dubious claims about animal experimentation funded by U.S. taxpayer dollars. On a recent Friday, the organization launched a website boldly declaring, “Your Tax Dollars Fund Russian Experiments on Cats—Tell NIH No More!” Accompanying this announcement on social media, PETA denounced a researcher named Tatiana Deliagina, accusing her of inflicting severe pain on cats and rabbits in foreign labs. However, a closer look at the facts reveals a different story. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has not funded any cat experiments in Russia for the last three years. This…

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney’s recent comments signal a significant shift in Canada’s foreign policy, revealing much about the current political climate. Carney’s decision to distance Canada from the United States is apparent, especially as he reaches out to China for partnership. This move raises questions about Canada’s priorities and commitments to its NATO allies. Carney’s assertion that Canadians “are ready” to defend Greenland against U.S. intentions is particularly alarming. It hints at a willingness to confront America militarily—a suggestion that is both bold and perhaps reckless. His declaration of unwavering support for Denmark regarding Greenland positions Canada against a…
