Dems Storm ICE Prison Holding Alleged Killers, Gangsters and Child Predators, Make Demands

Three members of Congress stormed through the gates of a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility in New Jersey on Friday, demanding they be allowed to conduct an “oversight visit.”

Reps. Rob Menendez Jr., Bonnie Watson Coleman and LaMonica McIver, all New Jersey Democrats, entered ICE’s Delaney Hall detention facility in Newark and were held up inside the first checkpoint, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin told Fox News.

“These members of Congress storming into a detention facility goes beyond bizarre political stunt and puts the safety of our law enforcement agents and the detainees at risk,” a DHS statement to Fox News said. “Members of Congress are not above the law and cannot illegally break into detention facilities. Had these members requested a tour, we would have facilitated a tour of the facility. This is an evolving situation.”

Newark Mayor Ras Baraka was arrested at the scene for trespassing, authorities said.

“The Mayor of Newark, Ras Baraka, committed trespass and ignored multiple warnings from Homeland Security Investigations to remove himself from the ICE detention center in Newark, New Jersey this afternoon,” Habba wrote on X. “He has willingly chosen to disregard the law. That will not stand in this state. He has been taken into custody. NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW.”

WATCH: Female Fencer and Trans-Supporting USA Fencing Head Face Off at Heated DOGE Hearing

The battle over women’s sports came to a head for women’s fencing on Wednesday in a heated congressional hearing where female fencer Stephanie Turner took questions alongside USA Fencing Chairman Damien Lehfeldt, who doubled down on allowing trans-identifying men.

Lehfeldt was subpoenaed to appear before the House Oversight Committee’s DOGE subcommittee for the hearing titled, “Unfair Play: Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports.”

Turner was disqualified from a Maryland tournament in March for taking a knee and refusing to compete against a trans-identifying male opponent. She ultimately stepped away from fencing altogether.

“It took me nearly three years to get up the courage to come out publicly,” Turner told lawmakers at the hearing. “That knee I took in protest was a cry for help and an act of desperation.”

Turner also explained how biological sex impacts performance in fencing, reminding lawmakers that it is a “combat sport.”

Microsoft Bans Employees From Using ‘Chinese Propaganda’ Chatbot

Microsoft has banned employees from using DeepSeek — the viral Chinese chatbot it worries is a purveyor of “propaganda” — company President Brad Smith told senators Thursday.

He testified that the app is blocked across all Microsoft devices and stripped from the Windows Store because engineers fear it funnels employee data to Chinese servers and pushes CCP-friendly answers. Smith’s disclosure to the Senate Commerce Committee vaults Microsoft to the front of a widening effort to keep DeepSeek off American — especially government and corporate — devices.

“At Microsoft we don’t allow our employees to use the DeepSeek app,” Smith testified, warning of “data going back to China” and answers shaded by “Chinese propaganda.”

Smith said engineers dissected DeepSeek’s open-source R1 model after it went viral in January and “changed the code … to remove the harmful side effects” after putting it through stress tests designed to catch security gaps and weed out propaganda before listing it on Azure’s cloud marketplace. DeepSeek did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.

The hearing underscored Washington’s growing unease over Beijing-linked AI tools that operate beyond U.S. export controls yet harvest American data. DeepSeek rocketed to the top of Apple’s and Google’s app charts this winter by offering ChatGPT Plus-level performance for free. At the same time, DeepSeek admits it “directly collects, processes and stores your Personal Data in the People’s Republic of China.” (Read more from “Microsoft Bans Employees From Using ‘Chinese Propaganda’ Chatbot” HERE)

RFK Jumps to Defense of New Trump Nominee That Surprisingly Angered MAHA Supporters

Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. leapt to the defense of President Donald Trump’s new Surgeon General pick Dr. Casey Means on Thursday after she faced mounting scrutiny from all sides of the political spectrum.

Means, who Trump tapped Wednesday after pulling his previous surgeon general nomination, is a Stanford Medical School-educated doctor and sibling of fierce Kennedy ally Calley Means.

But Means is facing a swell of scrutiny for, among other things, leaving her medical residency early.

Means left her residency at Oregon Health & Science University in her fifth year, becoming disillusioned with the medical system’s reflexive impulse to medicate, she explained in the book she co-wrote with Calley Means, “Good Energy.”

“It was increasingly becoming clear to me that although I was surrounded by practitioners who got into medicine to help patients, the reality is that every institution that impacts health – from medical schools to insurance companies to hospitals to pharma companies – makes money on ‘managing’ disease, not curing patients,” she wrote.

White House Responds to Anti-Trump Ideology Expressed by New Pope

When Robert Prevost, a Chicago archbishop for the Catholic church, this week was picked to be the new pope, Leo XIV, President Donald Trump wished him well.

“Congratulations to Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost, who was just named Pope. It is such an honor to realize that he is the first American Pope,” Trump said on his Truth Social account.

“What excitement, and what a Great Honor for our Country. I look forward to meeting Pope Leo XIV. It will be a very meaningful moment!” he said.

Then surfaced social media statements from Prevost, while a cardinal, that adopted an anti-Trump, pro-illegal immigration agenda. The statements specifically targeted the current White House administration with condemnation.

So the White House responded to that, too.

“The president made his reaction to Pope Leo’s announcement yesterday he is very proud to have an American Pope,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said during her briefing. “It’s a great thing…and we’re praying for him.” (Read more from “White House Responds to Anti-Trump Ideology Expressed by New Pope” HERE)

LGBTQ Bar Raided by Swarm of Cops, and Trump Is Getting Blamed for It

The LGBTQ community is furious over a police raid against a gay bar in Pittsburgh, and some are linking it to the rhetoric coming out of the Trump administration.

Witnesses said nearly two dozen police officers raided the P Town bar on Baum Blvd. on Friday at about 11:30 p.m. The surprise inspection from the Nuisance Bar Task Force included officers from the city health department, the local fire department, and state police.

One report said that the officers arrived during a rendition of “Bohemian Rhapsody” by local drag queen Blade Matthews, and they had to wait several minutes until the performance was over to order the attendees out of the bar. . .

A writer at the Canary news website linked the raid to the policies of the Trump administration.

“As the government fans the flames of a culture war, both police and members of the public are emboldened in persecuting and vilifying queer people,” the article read.

“Historically, queer people are over-policed in public spaces, be it bars, bathrooms, or otherwise. States are emboldening bigots with their own bigoted legislation — we cannot allow it to happen,” the article continued.

Is Your Job Killing You? All the Ways Overworking Can Destroy Your Health — and What You Can Do About It

Burning the midnight oil may fatten your paycheck, but your health could be paying the price.

In 2024, Gallup found that the average full-time worker in the US clocked 42.9 hours a week. But millions are logging far more, and the toll is greater than just burnout.

At one Midwestern investment bank, junior employees were allegedly forced to endure grueling 20-hour days — a grind so extreme it sent at least two to the hospital, including one with a failed pancreas.

They’re not alone. In recent years, several cases have emerged in which employees died after being pushed to work 100 hours a week or more, a troubling trend that’s prompted some companies to rethink their breakneck expectations.

Just last year, a 35-year-old Bank of America investment banker named Leo Lukenas III died of a blood clot while job-hunting, bogged down by the stress of his 100+ hour weeks.

The Post consulted seven health experts to find out what spending 60, 70 or even 80+ hours a week behind your desk can do to your body if you’re not careful. Spoiler alert: It’s not pretty.

New Audio Reveals Planned Parenthoods Hand Out Cross-Sex Hormones To Kids Like Candy

Planned Parenthood facilities across the United States agreed to help someone they believed to be a teenager obtain cross-sex hormones, audio released by Live Action alleges.

The undercover investigator, disguised as a gender-confused 16-year-old girl, called several Planned Parenthood locations across New York and Minnesota to inquire about getting a testosterone prescription after she “just decided last week” that she wanted to lean into transgenderism.

All of the facilities agreed over the phone to help the alleged teen book an “initial appointment” and secure the prescription, despite her age, hesitancy about including her mom in the process, and lack of proof that she had received gender-related counseling or therapy.

The Planned Parenthood in Mankato, Minnesota, confirmed that the caller, despite claiming to be under 18 years old, was still “good to be seen here.”

“You’re okay to do it for minors?” the investigator asked another Planned Parenthood in Little Canada, Minnesota.

“Yes,” the Planned Parenthood employee confirmed. “You can legally get hormones under 18.” (Read more from “New Audio Reveals Planned Parenthoods Hand Out Cross-Sex Hormones To Kids Like Candy” HERE)

Trump Announces U.K. Trade Deal Hours After Media Predict Failure

When President Donald Trump announced tariffs on most countries, the propaganda press reported that he was dangerously offending allied nations like the United Kingdom. The sky was falling. It would be a disaster!

And while they doubted much good would come of Trump’s strategy to renegotiate U.S. trade agreements, the media complained it was taking him too long to show any results. As if countries benefiting from trade deals that have been in place for decades would be willing to ink new deals in a matter of weeks.

CNN’s Senior Business Editor Olesya Dmitracova wrote this week that there was a new trade deal between the United Kingdom and India but still no deal from Trump.

“For weeks, Trump has said that at least one trade deal is imminent with one of the dozens of countries in active negotiations with the United States to avoid his punishing tariffs — with India among the most likely to reach such an agreement first,” Dmitracova wrote. “The prospect of an agreement with any one major trading partner has boosted confidence in US financial markets and raised hopes that the world may avoid the worst impacts of America’s tariffs. But so far, no deal has emerged. Instead, it’s the United Kingdom that has secured a trade deal with India.”

Former Biden mouthpiece Jen Psaki mocked Trump on CNN for not yet having a deal. (Read more from “Trump Announces U.K. Trade Deal Hours After Media Predict Failure” HERE)

Attorney Says New Lawfare Trial Opens the Door to Criminalizing ‘Spirituality’ in America

The wellness company OneTaste is currently on trial for the sham charge of “Forced Labor Conspiracy,” a desperate case built during the peak hysteria of the #MeToo movement. This lawfare campaign, brought to us by the Biden regime holdovers in the Eastern District of New York, claims that consenting adults who willingly joined a spiritual wellness community were somehow transformed into makeshift slaves.

This case should have never made it to trial. It’s propped up by a disgraceful cocktail of fake evidence, paid witnesses, FBI misconduct, propaganda media and Netflix documentaries, and political bias. From day one, this has been about punishing beliefs and scoring #MeToo points, not proving or punishing actual crimes.

Lead prosecutor Assistant US Attorney Kaitlin Farrell made that painfully clear in court when she basically admitted what this case is really about. In her recent remarks, Farrell revealed that the OneTaste prosecution is built on criminalizing thoughts and beliefs, not actual actions. Here are her chilling words:

I think, as your Honor understands, our theory of the case is that the defendants put some the testifying witnesses, our victims, in psychological distress and also taught them concepts that taught them basically to consent to everything and to be willing to engage in certain sexual activities that even at the time they would have viewed as something they wouldn’t consent to, but they did so because they were taught this was a philosophy or a religious practice that was good for them, and if they continued to do it they would reach enlightenment.

Let’s break this down: if you hold a spiritual or personal belief and actually live by it, the US government thinks that might be a crime. That’s not justice; that’s straight-up Marxist-style control. The OneTaste case isn’t about proving force or fraud. It’s about turning unconventional beliefs into “coercion” and rewriting consent to fit some state-approved script.

So, if the DOJ can twist spiritual or alternative beliefs into thought crimes, it sets the stage for something much bigger, doesn’t it? What happens when traditional religious practices come under fire? Church discipline, Christian counseling, Jewish or Muslim teachings—all of it could be on the chopping block. This isn’t just a trial. It’s the start of a very dangerous precedent.

That’s exactly why former Trump administration attorney James Lawrence is speaking out. James is based in North Carolina and served as deputy general counsel at HHS and later as general counsel at the FDA under President Trump. He also successfully litigated the first lawsuit against Twitter on behalf of New York Times journalist Alex Berenson. Now he’s sounding the alarm, warning that what these lawfare prosecutors are doing in the OneTaste case could reshape religious freedom in America. In a recent memo, he fired back at the lead prosecutor’s attempt to criminalize “thought crimes” and explained how that move could put people of faith directly in the government’s crosshairs.
