2-Year-Old Crosses Border Alone Seeking Parents in U.S., Heartbreaking Video From Texas DPS Shows

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Texas Department of Public Safety shared heartbreaking videos on Sunday showing dozens of unaccompanied children who had recently crossed the southern border into the United States.

Among the group of 60 children was a 2-year-old girl who told law enforcement officers that she had journeyed alone and was hoping to be reunited with her parents in the U.S. In the video, the child clutched a piece of paper, which she extended toward the officers. Inscribed on the note was a name and phone number.

An officer asked the child, “Did you come by yourself?” . . .

“How old are you?” the officer inquired.

The child held up a couple of fingers and responded, “Two.”

Trump Returns to Golfing Regularly Months After Assassination Attempt on Course

/1 Comment/in , /by

President-elect Donald Trump has been hitting the golf course regularly since his big 2024 win — proudly riding around in a golf cart and greeting club members and their families just months after an assassin attempted to take his life on the same West Palm Beach, Fla., course.

The 45th president had taken a break from golfing in the final stretch of his campaign as he was traveling — and after would-be assassin Ryan Wesley Routh nearly fired on him during a Sept. 15 round at the Trump International Golf Club.

But following his blowout victory against Vice President Kamala Harris, Trump has hit the course in regular fashion, with one source saying he likes to go out “every lunchtime.”

Trump, wearing a MAGA hat and a red quarter-zip sweater, was spotted taking pictures and inviting a member’s kid to sit in his golf cart over the weekend.

“Oh, I love that girl. I love that hair. I want her hair. Can I buy your hair? I’ll pay you millions for it,” Trump said, before stopping and inviting her onto the cart. (Read more from “Trump Returns to Golfing Regularly Months After Assassination Attempt on Course” HERE)

Pentagon: Mysterious Drones Spotted Near Key U.S. Military Sites in England

/2 Comments/in , /by

Mysterious drones were spotted last week near three military bases in England that are used by American forces, Pentagon officials said Sunday, the latest in a string of troubling incidents involving unidentified craft flying around sensitive U.S. military sites.

U.S. Air Forces Europe said the drones were seen last week near the bases RAF Lakenheath, RAF Mildenhall and RAF Feltwell. U.S. Air Force personnel operate out of each location and the American detachments there are a key piece of U.S. combat capabilities in Europe.

The revelations come just days after the Defense Department revealed in a major report that strange drones were seen flying over U.S. nuclear infrastructure, weapons and launch sites at least 18 times between May 2023 and June 1 of this year. Earlier this year, an unexplained drone swarm also flew over Langley Air Force Base in Virginia.

Pentagon officials offered little detail on the nature of the drones seen in England last week. The U.S. military monitored the objects after they were spotted, officials said, though they offered no explanation of who may have been behind the incursions or what their intentions were.

“To protect operational security, we do not discuss our specific force protection measures but retain the right to protect the installation,” the Air Force said in its statement. “We continue to monitor our airspace and are working with host-nation authorities and mission partners to ensure the safety of base personnel, facilities and assets.” (Read more from “Pentagon: Mysterious Drones Spotted Near Key U.S. Military Sites in England” HERE)

/0 Comments/in , /by

President-elect Donald Trump met with NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte at Mar-a-Lago as the organization fears a shakeup following his victory.

The meeting, first revealed in a statement late on Saturday, took place on Friday. The statement said that the two “discussed the range of global security issues facing the Alliance.”

“The Secretary General and his team also met with Congressman Mike Waltz and members of the President-elect’s national security team,” it added.

In a post on X after the meeting, Rep. Mike Waltz (R-FL) echoed Trump’s line on the organization following his 2016 campaign.

“A strong NATO that restores deterrence and peace requires all member nations to do their part commensurate with their economic strength!” he said.

Blinken in Deep Water After State Dept. Hosts Therapy Sessions Post-Trump Win

/2 Comments/in , /by

After President-elect Donald Trump won the election, the Biden-Harris State Department is under fire for hosting in-house therapy sessions for employees. A Free Beacon report found that outgoing Secretary of State Antony Blinken spent federal money on at least two sessions, which a source described as a “cry session” for people to deal with Vice President Kamala Harris’ loss.

In a letter to Blinken, Republican Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) expressed concern that the State Department was coddling its employees even though their preferred candidate did not win the election.

“I am concerned that the Department is catering to federal employees who are personally devastated by the normal functioning of American democracy through the provision of government-funded mental health counseling because Kamala Harris was not elected President of the United States,” the letter stated.

Issa found that the Biden-Harris agency sent an agency-wide email to employees, offering an “insightful webinar where we delve into effective stress management techniques to help you navigate these challenging times.” (Read more from “Blinken in Deep Water After State Dept.

Democrats Ramp Up Their Criticism of Tulsi Gabbard

/2 Comments/in , /by

Now that former congressman Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) is no longer a threat to Democrats, they are on to the next one in President-elect Donald Trump’s cabinet.

On Sunday, Democrat Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) warned viewers on CNN that former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI) is “compromised” and is like a “Russian asset.”

Host Dana Bash asked Duckworth, who served with Gabbard in the House, what she thought of the former Democrat, accusing her of promoting Russian propaganda.

“Well, I think she’s compromised,” Duckworth began. “I think by going to Syria and basically um, backing you know, a brutal dictator there. I mean Russian controlled media called her a Russian asset. So I do think that we have a real deep concern whether or not she’s a compromised person.”

She claimed that the U.S. Intelligence community has identified Gabbard of having “troubling relationships with America’s foes,” accusing her of not being able to pass a background check. (Read more from “Democrats Ramp Up Their Criticism of Tulsi Gabbard” HERE)

Oregon DMV Busted Allowing People of ‘Unknown Citizenship’ to Register to Vote

/1 Comment/in , /by

The Oregon Department of Motor Vehicles has directed its employees to process the voter registration of those with “unknown citizenship” status, simply requiring that they claim eligibility, The Federalist has learned.

“If you don’t prove that you’re not a U.S. citizen, then you will be asked if you want to self-attest to being a citizen, and they will assist you with registering to vote,” Republican state Rep. Ed Diehl told The Federalist.

Early last month, Democrat Gov. Tina Kotek paused Oregon’s “motor voter” program as the state began a cursory investigation into how the system had registered more than 1,500 potential noncitizens to vote, as The Federalist previously reported.

In response to this discovery, Diehl met with state DMV leaders on Oct. 21. He said the DMV has reverted to only registering voters with a form that relies on attestation to prove citizenship.

“I​​nstead of being optional — a side track basically for voter registration — it’s right now the only way,” Diehl said. (Read more from “Oregon DMV Busted Allowing People of ‘Unknown Citizenship’ to Register to Vote” HERE)

‘The Judges Know It’s A Political Thing’: Michigan Court Pauses Peaceful Pro-Lifers’ Sentencing Until Trump Admin Starts

/0 Comments/in , /by

Justin Phillips says he and several other pro-life advocates sat in front of the doors of an abortion mill in Sterling Heights, Michigan on August 27, 2020, delaying a pregnant woman from entering the facility for about an hour.

For that hour of sitting, Phillips faces the prospect of over a decade in federal prison, as his attorney and others familiar with the case have confirmed. But for Phillips and others across the country charged with violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act, hope was sparked this week that President-Elect Donald Trump could quell the zeal of the Department of Justice (DOJ) which has in recent years been actively targeting pro-lifers engaging peacefully with women outside of abortion mills.

The FACE Act was enacted under President Bill Clinton in 1994. The law prohibits interfering with anyone seeking, obtaining, or providing so-called “reproductive health services.”

Phillips and others have been awaiting sentencing in their case, but in a status conference this week, U.S. District Judge Matthew F. Leitman in Michigan’s Eastern District told attorneys to stand down.

In an order released Wednesday, Leitman paused all briefings on post-trial motions until further notice and pushed the next status conference to March 24, 2025, at the latest — well after Trump’s inauguration.

Donald Trump’s Ally Rejects Putin Negotiation Plan

/0 Comments/in , /by

South Dakota Senator Mike Rounds has dismissed calls for a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine, suggesting Russian President Vladimir Putin could not be trusted to honor such an agreement.

“As much as I would like to believe we can negotiate with a tyrant, I suspect we may be deceiving ourselves,” Rounds said in reference to Putin at the Halifax Security Forum on Friday.

“Do you believe that this tyrant, if you offer him a part of a free country, do you think he’s gonna stop?” Rounds said.

“I wish I could say there’s an easy way out, there’s not.” (Read more from “Donald Trump’s Ally Rejects Putin Negotiation Plan” HERE)

Most Democrats Aren’t Motivated to Oppose Donald Trump: New Poll

/0 Comments/in , /by

Most Democrats are not motivated to oppose President-elect Donald Trump as he prepares to take office, despite half saying they feel “scared” about what he will do as the country’s leader, according to a post-election poll published on Sunday.

Earlier this month, Democrats took a loss as Trump secured the popular vote and 312 Electoral College votes to win a second term in the White House, beating out Democratic nominee Vice President Kamala Harris.

Over the past few weeks, Trump has begun his transition back to the Oval Office, having previously served as the 45th president. He is the second U.S. president to take office again in a nonconsecutive term, the first being President Grover Cleveland.

Down the ballot, the Republican Party retained their majority in the House of Representatives, and flipped the Senate, gaining control with 53 seats. (Read more from “Most Democrats Aren’t Motivated to Oppose Donald Trump: New Poll” HERE)
