DOJ Report: ‘Radical’ Biden Administration Worked to ‘Punish’ Christians Living by Their Beliefs

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former President Joe Biden’s (D) administration targeted Christians who held traditional values, according to findings in a U.S. Department of Justice Task Force report.

The Task Force to Eradicate Anti-Christian Bias shared its findings Thursday in a lengthy report detailing how the Biden administration pursued such ends, according to the New York Post.

The DOJ’s press release said the report detailed Biden’s “radical efforts to punish Christians” through prosecutions, policies, and practices that demonstrated “anti-Christian bias.”

A DOJ press release quoted acting attorney general and chair of the task force Todd Blanche:

No American should live in fear that the federal government will punish them for their faith. As our report lays out, the Biden Administration’s actions devastated the lives of many Christian Americans. That devastation ended with President Trump. The Department of Justice will continue to expose bad actors who targeted Christians and work tirelessly to restore religious liberty for all Americans of faith.

Democrat Senate Candidate Deletes X Posts After Report Exposed Her Trashing State She Is Seeking To Represent

/0 Comments/in , /by

Democratic Michigan state Sen. Mallory McMorrow wiped thousands of posts Wednesday after her social media history of trashing “Middle America” gained national attention.

McMorrow and former Wayne County health director Abdul El-Sayed were virtually tied in an Emerson College poll taken in early April before CNN reporter Andrew Kaczynski noted that 6,000 posts, including all of them prior to 2020, had vanished from McMorrow’s X account. The New York Post first reported on McMorrow’s posts in April 2025.

“I had a dream that the US amicably broke off into The Ring (coasts+Can+Mex+parts Mich/Tex) and Middle America,” McMorrow posted in December 2016, shortly after President Donald Trump won his first term.

McMorrow also took shots at the state she is aiming to represent, at one point rooting for Notre Dame over the University of Michigan in a post, according to the New York Post. Another post, since deleted, featured McMorrow expressing a dislike of snow and using the hashtag #NYCtoLA.

McMorrow vaulted to national prominence in 2022 when she gave a speech on the floor of the Michigan Senate attacking Republicans for their opposition to child sex changes, opposition to abortion and other social conservative positions. The speech went viral and was praised by longtime Democratic strategist James Carville.

Market Analysts Say Our Political System is Hopelessly Corrupt, Call Out Billions in Obvious Insider Trading

/5 Comments/in , , /by

Four suspiciously-timed trades on the oil futures market have analysts and traders outraged — calling out corruption in the industry or, even worse, data leaks at the highest level.

The oil wagers — ranging from $400 million to nearly $1 billion — dwarf other recent insider trading scandals over suspiciously-timed bets placed on platforms Polymarket and Kalshi regarding outcomes of US military action.

“We’re all, like, f—k this s—t! It’s outrageous what’s going on. This corruption is how you end up like Venezuela,” oil market analyst Paul Sankey told The Post.

“It’s simple corruption. It’s not a free market. If the Democrats were clean, they’d call it out. But all the politicians have their snouts in the trough of insider trading,” the seasoned oilman said.

Sankey, a former Wall Streeter now president of Sankey Research, recalls trips to Washington 20 years ago, when all the lawmakers “dressed like geography teachers.” Now they’re flashing Rolexes and $4,000 suits.

“It’s so unsubtle. There’s a sense of corruption around all of Washington, including the Democrats, led by the Nancy Pelosi [stock] tracker,” he added, referring to a novel online tool that follows the historically strong stock market trades of the former House Speaker.

Supreme Court Unanimously Sides With New Jersey Crisis Pregnancy Center Against Dems’ Bid to Get Donor List

/0 Comments/in , /by

By New York Post. The Supreme Court unanimously allowed a New Jersey-based crisis pregnancy center to fight a Garden State subpoena demanding access to its donor information.

The lower courts had dismissed First Choice Women’s Resource Centers’ lawsuit, buying New Jersey’s assertion that the plaintiffs could not sue to quash the subpoena due to the fact that the state needed a court order to enforce it.

The justices disagreed, with conservative Neil Gorsuch writing on behalf of his colleagues: “An official demand for private donor information is enough to discourage reasonable individuals from associating with a group.

“It is enough to discourage groups from expressing dissident views. A government that chooses to make private donor information public may make the damage worse.”

The Supreme Court’s decision does not end the investigation by the New Jersey attorney general’s office into the crisis pregnancy center, but merely allows the lawsuit by First Choice to proceed.

Supreme Court tosses Louisiana House map in major Voting Rights Act win for GOP ahead of midterms

By New York Post. The Supreme Court struck down Louisiana’s congressional map Wednesday, finding the Pelican State unconstitutionally added a second majority-black House district in a major decision that is likely to pave the way for Republicans to make major redistricting gains across southern states.

Louisiana had been forced by a federal judge to create a second majority-black district in 2024 to comply with Section 2 of the 1965 Voting Rights Act (VRA), which restricts states from diluting minority votes.

The Trump administration and state officials challenged the new map, arguing it was a racial gerrymander in violation of the 14th Amendment, which guarantees all citizens equal protection under the law.

The high court agreed, with all six conservative justices voting to get rid of the 2024 boundaries.

However, the majority opinion by Justice Samuel Alito stopped short of finding Section 2 of the VRA unconstitutional, as many activists had feared. (Read more from “Supreme Court tosses Louisiana House map in major Voting Rights Act win for GOP ahead of midterms” HERE)

$65B Lithium Mother Lode Hidden Beneath Appalachian Mountains Could Supply US with Power for Centuries

/0 Comments/in , , /by

We may no longer need to rely on foreign batteries to power our electronics. Geologists have announced that the Appalachian Mountains could be hiding a sprawling multibillion-dollar cache of lithium that could last the US hundreds of years.

“This research shows that the Appalachians contain enough lithium to help meet the nation’s growing needs,” declared US Geological Survey Director Ned Mamula in a statement.

According to a map by the institution, this East Coast mountain range houses around 2.5 metric tons of this battery precursor, most of which is concentrated in the Carolinas, Maine and New Hampshire. Total value: around $64.4B dollars.

Per Bloomberg, the US imports nearly half of its consumption of lithium, which powers lithium-ion batteries that are used for everything from iPhones to vehicles and even aerospace alloys.

With this recent mineral motherlode, USGS officials estimate that we could supply 1.6 million grid-scale batteries — enough to power 130 million electric vehicles or supply 180 billion laptops for a collective thousands of years of global use.

Couple and Daughter Hit with Federal Charges for Assaulting Turning Point USA Reporter

/0 Comments/in , /by

A Minnesota couple — including a dad who fancied himself “the voice of a generation” — and their daughter were hit with federal charges for allegedly assaulting a Turning Point USA reporter at an anti-ICE protest earlier this month.

Christopher Ostroushko, 51; Deyanna Ostroushko, 46; and daughter Paige Ostroushko, 20, were indicted for the assault of TPUSA reporter Savanah Hernandez outside of the Bishop Henry Whipple Federal Building in Fort Snelling, the US Department of Justice announced on Wednesday.

Horrifying video from the April 11 anti-ICE rally outside the Whipple building captured Christopher Ostroushko suddenly shoving Hernandez, 29, with both hands to the ground, while yelling, “Don’t f–king touch my daughter!”

The enraged dad’s assault came after a female protester was seen punching Hernandez in the face, knocking her clean off her feet and into a fence behind her, and before another woman tackled her to the pavement once again, according to the footage.

Hernandez previously told The Post that she was tasked with filming protest activity — and did so untouched until she was identified by “a mob” of “left-wingers” for her work with the organization co-founded by assassinated conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

US Seeks to Deploy $15M ‘Dark Eagle’ Hypersonic Missile for the First Time Against Iran: Report

/0 Comments/in , /by

The US military is reportedly considering sending its long-range hypersonic missile to the Middle East — to possibly strike ballistic-missile launchers embedded in Iran.

The request, which was made by US Central Command, justified the deployment of a hypersonic missile, arguing that the Iranian regime has moved its launchers out of range of the Precision Strike missile, which can hit targets more than 300 miles away, a person with direct knowledge told Bloomberg.

If given the green light, the move would mark the first time the US has deployed a hypersonic missile, which has not yet been declared fully operational.

The request has not been made public, and the US and Iran have had a tenuous cease-fire in place since April 8. President Trump, however, has repeatedly threatened to reignite the Iran war with renewed military action as talks toward a peace deal remain at an impasse

The Army’s Long-Range Hypersonic Weapon, known as Dark Eagle, has a reported range of 1,725 miles and is specifically made for “long range conventional precision strike capability” against “time-sensitive and heavily defended targets,” according to the Library of Congress.

Federal Appeals Court Rejects Trump’s Challenge to E. Jean Carroll Defamation Verdict

/0 Comments/in , /by

A New York federal appeals court rejected President Trump’s challenge to relitigate the verdict in writer E. Jean Carroll’s successful defamation suit against him.

In 2024, prior to the presidential election, a jury awarded writer E. Jean Carroll $83 million in damages after she argued he defamed her with statements he made in refuting her allegations of him sexually assaulting her in a Bergdorf Goodman dressing room in the early-1990s. The president has repeatedly denied the allegations and has “tried unsuccessfully to substitute the United States as a defendant and to raise a claim of presidential immunity,” per ABC News.

A separate jury in an earlier trial awarded Carroll $5 million in damages after holding Trump liable for defamation and sexual abuse. The 2nd Circuit previously rejected each of Trump’s appellate efforts in that case.

On Wednesday, the 2nd U.S. Court of Appeals ruled that the president had raised his arguments too late.

“The fact of the matter is that no other defendant would be permitted to move to substitute the United States in his place, fifteen months after trial and the entry of judgment against him,” Judge Denny Chin wrote. “The Court appropriately declined to convene en banc to revisit this issue.” (Read more from “Federal Appeals Court Rejects Trump’s Challenge to E.

Federal Judge Rules Against Trump Admin Efforts to Verify Arizona Voter Data

/0 Comments/in , /by

A federal judge on Tuesday ruled that the Trump administration cannot obtain Arizona’s voter registration list as the administration seeks to ensure election integrity across the nation.

Judge Susan Brnovich of the U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona on Tuesday said that the state’s voter registration list is not subject to requests from the U.S. Attorney General.

Brnovich, a Trump appointed-judge, dismissed the case with prejudice because an amended complaint would be “legally futile.”

The dismissal follows after after judges have ruled against the Justice Department’s attempted to obtain at least 30 states and the District of Columbia’s constituents date of birth, address, driver’s license numbers, and partial Social Security numbers.

The Trump administration seeks the data to ensure states are complying with federal election laws and to check the citizenship status of individuals on the voter rolls. (Read more from “Federal Judge Rules Against Trump Admin Efforts to Verify Arizona Voter Data” HERE)

Minneapolis: FBI Raids Childcare Facilities Linked to Somali Fraud

/4 Comments/in , /by

More than 20 locations in Minneapolis were raided Tuesday as federal authorities crack down on alleged fraud linked to Somali-owned businesses in the Democrat-run state.

The targets included childcare facilities that were registered with the state but allegedly billing for care they did not provide, Fox News reported Tuesday.

Video footage shows officers exiting one of the facilities:

Sources informed the outlet two of the raids happened at Quality Learning Center and Baby Halimo Child Care which are located in Minneapolis. The ironically misspelled “Quality Learing Center” drew much attention when it was featured in citizen journalist Nick Shirley’s investigation highlighting the alleged fraud, per Breitbart News.

In December, Shirley claimed he and his team uncovered more than $110,000,000 in a single day when they visited Minneapolis to investigate. Shirley’s video showed numerous childcare facilities that were vacant or non-operational storefronts, and some were occupied by Somalis who refused to answer his questions.
