We’ve known for years that Anthony Fauci’s agency helped fund research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, and that the COVID-19 likely came from a lab there. Thanks to the work of Daily Caller News Foundation Reporter Emily Kopp, we now know that USAID was in on the action too, in a way we never could’ve imagined. She joins Daily Caller Editor-in-Chief Dylan Housman on today’s Rebelcast to break it down.

Multiple Churchgoers Gunned Down after Suspect Shoots State Trooper in Wild Rampage

/1 Comment/in , , /by

A suspect went on a shooting rampage in Kentucky on Sunday, injuring a state trooper before moving to a church and shooting four people, leaving two dead.

Lexington Police Department Chief Lawrence Weathers said the spree started just before noon when a state trooper pulled the suspect over for a license plate reader alert. The suspect opened fire, injuring the trooper. It happened on Terminal Drive just outside Blue Grass Airport, but was unrelated to the airport.

“There were some people en route to the airport, and they got out and assisted the trooper,” Weathers said. “I appreciate them for getting out and doing what they did.”

The trooper was in stable condition and receiving medical treatment, police said.

After shooting the trooper, the suspect took off and carjacked a vehicle, Weathers said. No one was hurt in the carjacking.

Police then utilized the department’s Air Support Unit and Real-Time Intelligence Center to track the suspect to Richmond Road Baptist Church in Lexington. (Read more from “Multiple Churchgoers Gunned Down after Suspect Shoots State Trooper in Wild Rampage” HERE)

/1 Comment/in , , /by

Video posted to Facebook appears to show a woman plow through anti-ICE protesters Saturday in New Jersey, injuring three, and is now facing charges, according to police.

The videos shows a gray SUV slowly approach a crowd of protesters marching against ICE raids when a one protester approaches the driver. The woman behind the wheel, Linda Roglen, then begins to proceed and the protester falls to the ground while others gather around to stop the car. Roglen then rolls up her window and drive through the crowd and leaves the scene.

Roglen has been charged with careless driving, reckless driving, leaving the scene of an accident and four counts of assault with a car resulting in bodily injury, according to the New York Post. Several protesters suffered injuries and one was taken to the hospital, News 12 reported.

The protest was organized by a group called “United Against Fear,” according to the New York Post. Several witnesses described the scene, with one man saying “I don’t know what they said, but they just say something to each other and he spits in her face.” “I was scared though, honestly, like for those people. Because you never know, man. Something like that, you could die. That’s scary,” the man added.

Top Trump Officials Admit They’re Pissed At How The Epstein Story Was Handled

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Top administration officials admitted to the Daily Caller that they are upset with the way the investigation into the Jeffrey Epstein files was handled and explained some of the missteps made along the way.

Coming off the July 4 holiday weekend on Sunday night, Axios published a memo from the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) announcing that their investigation found no evidence that convicted sex offender and disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein maintained a “client list” or was murdered. It was an abrupt shock to the president’s base, especially after Attorney General Pam Bondi previously acknowledged that she was reviewing a “client list” and a group of MAGA social media influencers received a “Phase 1” binder of the Epstein files.

Administration officials say they are frustrated and feel like the DOJ dropped the ball by over representing how much evidence they had to take down Epstein’s alleged child trafficking ring.

“You can arrest all the drug leaders and cartel leaders, but people want closure on this case, and the Attorney General must find a better way to reconcile that,” one official told the Caller about the public response to Sunday’s announcement.

Senior administration officials also expressed confusion to the Caller on whether the Epstein case was truly “closed” after the memo went out. One source said the memo from the DOJ read like the case was closed, but noted that there are still sealed documents in various ongoing cases.

FBI Director Kash Patel Responds to Controversy Surrounding Epstein Files

/1 Comment/in , , /by

Director of the FBI Kash Patel broke his silence on Saturday over the controversy surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein files, asserting that related “conspiracy theories just aren’t true.”

The Department of Justice (DOJ) recently announced there was no evidence to prove that Epstein had a client list, had blackmailed powerful people, or had been murdered. The revelations have come under fire from some politicos and others online who suggest government officials are not revealing the full trust or misled the public with past statements.

Additionally, it’s been rumored that Patel, along with FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino, do not want to work with Attorney General Pam Bondi and were considering leaving if she remains at her post.

“The conspiracy theories just aren’t true, never have been,” Patel said Saturday on X. “It’s an honor to serve the President of the United States [Donald Trump] — and I’ll continue to do so for as long as he calls on me.”

Patel has said numerous times publicly that he believes Epstein committed suicide in the Metropolitan Detention Center. (Read more from “FBI Director Kash Patel Responds to Controversy Surrounding Epstein Files” HERE)

Shooter Attacked Border Agents Hours After Dems Said Their Voters Want ‘Blood’

/0 Comments/in , , /by

In a Monday article published by Axios, Democrat leaders told the outlet their supporters want more from them, including blood, to fight against Trump’s illegal immigration efforts. That same day, a man with a rifle and tactical gear shot at Border Patrol agents and local law enforcement in McAllen, Texas, resulting in a police officer being injured and the shooter being killed, according to Fox News.

“Our own base is telling us that what we’re doing is not good enough … [that] there needs to be blood to grab the attention of the press and the public,” one anonymous House Democrat told Axios. The congressman said that “grassroots” supporters are telling lawmakers that when they enter ICE facilities, they need to be “willing to get shot.”

Axios reported that more than two dozen Democrat representatives who spoke to publication are seeing more anger from constituents over the Democrats “not doing enough to counter President Trump’s agenda.” It has even “morphed into a disregard for American institutions, political traditions and even the rule of law,” according to Axios.

“What I have seen is a demand that we get ourselves arrested intentionally or allow ourselves to be victims of violence, and … a lot of times that’s coming from economically very secure white people,” another anonymous House Democrat told Axios.

In recent months, multiple Democrat politicians have come under fire for their behavior undermining the Trump administration’s immigration policies.

DHS: City Council Candidate Calls for Shooting ICE Agents

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) reported that a San Antonio City Council candidate called for the shooting of ICE agents on the streets of Los Angeles. The threat by the self-described Democrat political consultant comes as ICE agents are increasingly assaulted, and a Border Patrol station in Texas came under attack from a gunman.

DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin posted on social media that San Antonio City Council Candidate Matthew Gauna called for the killing of ICE agents in Los Angeles. “I wanna see a few dead ICE agents Los Angeles! Don’t let me down.”

McLaughlin called the threat “depraved.”

The post by Gauna was subsequently removed, but not before others on X grabbed screenshots of the threat calling for the assassination of ICE agents.

1-Year-Old Girl Mauled to Death by Family’s Pit Bull, Police Say

/0 Comments/in , , /by

An Ohio couple is grieving the “unimaginable tragedy” of the death of their 1-year-old daughter after their pit bull unexpectedly attacked her, according to police.

Tuscarawas County Sheriff Orvis L. Campbell said that deputies were called out on a report of a dog attack at a home on Lake Road in Dover Township on July 2 at about 6 p.m.

Campbell said an emergency dispatcher received an initial call where nothing could be heard and then received a second call moments later from the mother, who said her child had been killed.

When deputies arrived at the residence, they found the child with bites to her face and neck. She was declared dead at the scene.

The mother told officers that she was picking up clothing in a laundry basket with her daughter next to her when the dog suddenly attacked. Deputies said they observed defensive wounds on the woman, who tried to save her daughter.

“It was about as terrible of [an] ordeal as we’ve come across in a long time,” Campbell said.

New Jersey Native on First Rescue Mission With Coast Guard Helps Save 165 Texas Flood Victims: ‘American Hero’

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A Coast Guard rescue swimmer is already being hailed as an “American hero” after his very first mission — helping to save the lives of 165 Texas flash-flood victims.

“This is what it’s all about, right? Like, this is why we do the job,” said Scott Ruskan, 26, a New Jersey native and former KPMG accountant, to The Post after his work in central Texas.

“This is why we take those risks all time. This is why like Coast Guard men and women, are risking their lives every day,” said Petty Officer Ruskan — who was in charge of triage at Camp Mystic, the Christian girls’ summer camp that saw some of the worst of the flooding.

Raised in Oxford, NJ, Ruskan enlisted in the US Coast Guard in 2021, and after completing basic training, went to Aviation Survival Technician school in Petaluma, Calif., before being stationed in Corpus Christi, Texas.

He had been on call since November after completing all of his training, familiarizing himself with the Coast Guard’s iconic MH-65 helicopter and enrolling in additional rescue swimming classes as he waited to be called into action.
