Thanks in part to holdups on Trump U.S. attorney confirmations by Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA), charges filed by Trump appointed U.S. attorney Linda Halligan against DNC operatives have been dismissed. U.S. District Judge Cameron McGowan Currie dismissed the charges against former FBI Director James Comey and current Fulton County Attorney General Leticia James.
The Judge ruled the Halligan was inappropriately appointed and thus has no authority to file charges before a U.S. court. Since the judge dismissed the charges, they can be brought again. Grassley held up the confirmation of Lindsey Halligan using a Senate traditional rule called the “blue slip,” which allows a home-state Senator to hold up any confirmations of their constituents for any reason.
Legal Expert Jonathan Turley Explains Why Comey and James Are Not Out of the Woods Yet, Despite Cases Being Dismissed – Western Journal
George Washington University Law School professor Jonathan Turley made clear on Monday why former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James are not out of legal jeopardy yet.
Earlier in the day, U.S. District Judge Cameron McGowan Currie, a Bill Clinton appointee, ruled that Interim U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan was incorrectly appointed, and therefore, the indictments brought by her office against Comey and James were “defective.”
“All actions flowing from Ms. Halligan’s defective appointment … constitute unlawful exercises of executive power and must be set aside,” the judge wrote.
Islamist Socialist Zohran Mamdani has chosen a police abolitionist author to be on his transition team. Alex Vitale, who wrote the book “The End of Policing,” will be working on “community safety issues.” This follows his meeting with President Trump in the oval office where they exchanged mostly substance-less jabs with one another.
After a Jewish synagogue was harassed by a group shouting “Death to the IDF,” Mamdani blamed the victims for holding an event that offended the anti-Israel activists. His recent reiteration that he would honor “international law” over U.S. law leaves some to question whether he will try to arrest Jews wanted by the antisemitic “World Court.”

A tagline on the listing for his book states that it’s the “best-selling bible of the movement to defund the police.”
Socialist New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani has just brought on an advisor whose work includes the writing of the book, “The End of Policing.” The staffer will be on Mamdani’s transition team and working on “community safety issues.”
Alex Vitale, whose X bio states the words “putting abolition into practice” and touts his book “The End of Policing” in his bio, wrote on X, “I’m excited to announce that I have been asked to join the Mamdani Transition Team to work on community safety issues. A New Era for NYC.”
NEW: Mamdani Suggests He Will Disobey U.S. Legal System: ‘City Of International Law’– trendingpoliticsnews.com
Incoming New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani doubled down on his promise to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on an international arrest warrant that is not recognized in U.S. law, setting up a potential act of rebellion against federal authority.
The mayor-elect, a self-styled socialist, has repeatedly pledged that if elected mayor, he would direct the New York Police Department (NYPD) to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu should he visit the city. Mamdani has claimed that he has an obligation to do so in order to adhere to “international law,” particularly by honoring an International Criminal Court (ICC) warrant against Netanyahu stemming from the conflict in Gaza.
Hennepin County Judge Sarah West overruled a Minnesota jury after they found Abdifatah Yusuf guilty on fraud and racketeering charges. He was charged with committing $7.2 million in Medicaid fraud. The judge said the jury “erred” in its judgment. Because a jury originally found him guilty, the prosecutor can appeal the verdict.
One juror. Ben Walfoort, the jury’s foreman, told KARE 11, “It was not a difficult decision whatsoever. The deliberation took probably four hours at most. Based off of the state’s evidence that was presented, it was beyond a reasonable doubt.”
Judge Tosses Conviction Of Somali Who Ripped Off Minnesota Taxpayers – Daily Caller
A Hennepin County, Minnesota, judge set aside a jury’s guilty verdict in a $7.2 million Medicaid fraud case Monday, leaving jurors shocked.
Hennepin County Judge Sarah West ruled that the jury erred when it found Abdifatah Yusuf guilty on fraud and racketeering charges, KARE 11 reported. Stunned jurors told the Minneapolis-area TV station they didn’t have much difficulty during deliberations.
The U.S. House has passed a bill to repeal a provision included in the continuing resolution that ended the historic government shutdown. The bill is NOT addressing the provision that makes most of the CBD industry illegal. The bill removes the permission for Federal employees who were victims of Operation Arctic Frost to sue the Federal government.
The operation, run by DNC attorney Jack Smith, spied on mostly Republicans’ phone records, including its top leadership, including Marco Rubio. The bill required a two-thirds yes vote to pass, which it did. Seven members, three Republicans and four Democrats, chose not to vote at all. It must now pass the Senate, which is not a guarantee as of right now.
The House has passed a bill to repeal a provision in the government shutdown-ending continuing resolution that allowed lawmakers surveilled by the federal government to seek damages.
The House passed the bill to repeal the funding bill provision that would permit U.S. senators to sue the government for “$500,000 or the amount of actual damages” if the government has subpoenaed or seized their data without notification by a vote of 426 to 0. Two hundred and sixteen Republicans and 210 Democrats voted to strip the provision from the stopgap measure.
The wanna-be world czar Bill Gates signaled to the world that the climate change hoax jig was up after admitting “The doomsday outlook is causing much of the climate community to focus too much on near-term emissions goals, and it’s diverting resources from the most effective things we should be doing to improve life in a warming world. The biggest problems are poverty and disease, just as they always have been.”
This signals a potential shift in globalist strategy from promising to save the world from human greed and the brown people from the white devil, they’re going to go back to the basics, economic class. President Trump wasn’t letting Gates surrender so gently, however.
He quipped back, “I (WE!) just won the War on the Climate Change Hoax. Bill Gates has finally admitted that he was completely WRONG on the issue,” he added. “It took courage to do so, and for that we are all grateful. MAGA!!!”
President Donald Trump said opponents of the “climate change hoax” had won the struggle after Bill Gates said supporters should pivot their efforts.
Gates has been a longtime proponent of policies to fight climate change, but on Monday he took a far more moderate tone that accepted the survivability of slightly higher global temperatures.
‘Bill Gates has finally admitted that he was completely WRONG on the issue.’
“I (WE!) just won the War on the Climate Change Hoax,” the president wrote on his Truth Social account.
“Bill Gates has finally admitted that he was completely WRONG on the issue,” he added. “It took courage to do so, and for that we are all grateful. MAGA!!!”
For the 13th time, the U.S. Senate has failed to reach the 60 votes needed to pass the continuing budget resolution that would re-open the government. The vote was 55-45, with two Democrats breaking ranks and voting for the CR while one Republican voted against the CR. Getting a clear picture of the differences between the two is near impossible, with AI tools doing little more than carrying DNC talking points.
From the White House: FACT: Democrats’ proposal would result in nearly $200 billion spent on healthcare for illegal immigrants and other non-citizens over the next decade — enough to fund the entire Children’s Health Insurance Program.
While the DNC CLAIMS it’s not defending illegal aliens from losing healthcare coverage, Republicans insist they do. The language used by the DNC and its illegal campaign advertisers (with Reuters doing the most offensive work) is intentionally obtuse beyond defiantly declaring the DNC doesn’t want to fund illegal aliens. For now, MIA’s stance is the evidence points to the DNC wanting to fund illegal alien healthcare, or worse, destabilize America for the Progmerican revolution to grow.
Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) is breaking ranks, saying to his own party, “As a committed Democrat, I’m dismayed my party is playing chicken with the food security of 42M Americans. I reject a political gamble that exposes a vulnerable constituency to widespread deprivation and chaos.”
This tactic appears, more and more, about causing “widespread… chaos” for the intentional of revolution than anything else. Read why the DNC should be declared a terrorist organization on pg. 2, remembering the American left STILL exists and should NOT be caught up in the judgement to come for the leaders of the Progmerican left.
Your taxpayer dollars and mine were paying for a special makeup artist at the U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM) — that is, until DOGE got involved.
The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) cut contracts with a ceiling value of around $17 billion altogether over the last three weeks. It seems as if the waste and fraud in our federal government is endless, and DOGE has to wade through an absolute mountain of corrupt insanity as it tries to restore fiscal responsibility to the government.
Former President Barack Obama and California Governor Gavin Newsom are urging Californians to vote in favor of Proposition 50, a ballot measure that would replace the state’s independent redistricting system with a legislature-approved map projected to eliminate several Republican-held congressional districts.
On Tuesday, California Governor Gavin Newsom posted on X, “Listen to @barackobama,” sharing a new video featuring former President Barack Obama encouraging voters to support Proposition 50 in the state’s November 4 special election.
In the video, Obama says:
“California, the whole nation is counting on you. Democracy is on the ballot November 4. Republicans want to steal enough seats in Congress to rig the next election and wield unchecked power for two more years. With Prop 50, you can stop Republicans in their tracks. Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, which preserves Independent Redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide. Return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.”
The ad marks Obama’s latest effort to promote Gov. Newsom’s redistricting plan, which would replace California’s independent redistricting commission — created by voters in 2008 — with a partisan-drawn map. According to previous Breitbart News reports, the proposal would reduce Republican-held seats in California’s congressional delegation from nine to five, even though roughly 40 percent of voters supported Republican candidates in the 2024 election.
Obama has described Newsom’s proposal as a “reasoned and measured approach,” writing on X in August, “Over the long term, we shouldn’t have political gerrymandering in America, just a fair fight between Republicans and Democrats based on who’s got better ideas. But since Texas is taking direction from a partisan White House and gerrymandering in the middle of a decade to try and maintain the House despite their unpopular policies, I have tremendous respect for how Governor Newsom has approached this. He’s put forward a smart, measured approach in California, designed to address a very particular problem at a very particular moment in time.”
At a fundraiser on Martha’s Vineyard, Obama praised the initiative further, saying, “We’re only going to do it if and when Texas and/or other Republican states begin to pull these maneuvers. Otherwise, this doesn’t go into effect.”
California Republicans have sued to stop Newsom’s plan, calling it unconstitutional and arguing it violates the 30-day public notice requirement for legislation. The California Supreme Court, however, ruled in August that the plan could proceed, allowing the governor to use a “gut and amend” tactic to fast-track the measure through the legislature.
The special election — estimated to cost $250 million — will ask voters to approve the new map and amend the state constitution to permit mid-decade redistricting. The Democratic National Committee has launched bilingual outreach campaigns in support of Prop 50 focusing on Latino voters, while major donors including billionaire Tom Steyer have funded multimillion-dollar ad campaigns promoting the initiative.
Polls indicate that a majority of Californians still favor retaining the state’s independent redistricting commission. A UC Berkeley–Politico survey found that 64 percent of voters prefer the current system, compared to 36 percent who support the governor’s proposed changes.
California’s redistricting fight is part of a broader national battle following Texas’s new “One Big Beautiful Map” which adds five Republican-leaning districts. Obama and former Attorney General Eric Holder, through the National Democratic Redistricting Committee, have pledged to counter GOP-led redistricting efforts, characterizing them as “an existential threat to our democracy.”

Major CBS, ABC, PBS Shows Silent on Jay Jones Scandal
from thefederalist.com
Over the course of the five days after the controversy broke, major CBS, ABC, and PBS broadcast shows refused to discuss Democrat Jay Jones’ violent text messages in which he fantasized about assassinating a political opponent, a new analysis revealed.
NBC alone dedicated a mere 63 seconds to the Virginia attorney general candidates’ texts, Media Research Center’s study of major NBC, ABC, CBS, and PBS segments revealed. The analysis included the shows ABC World News Tonight, CBS Evening News, NBC Nightly News, ABC’s Good Morning America, CBS Mornings, CBS Saturday Morning, CBS Sunday Morning, NBC Today, NBC Sunday Today, ABC’s This Week, NBC’s Meet the Press, CBS’s Face the Nation, and PBS’s NewsHour. MRC analyzed the programs from Friday, the day the National Review broke the story about Jones’ messages, through Tuesday morning.
National Review revealed messages Jones sent to a former colleague in 2022 in which he said, “Put Gilbert in the crew with the two worst people you know and he receives both bullets every time.” The hypothetical Jones proposed put Gilbert on par with Hitler and Pol Pot.
Suspect’s Bible Used to Spark Palisades Fire — But Newsom and Bass Will Have Hell to Pay
from pjmedia.com
Since the catastrophic Los Angeles firestorm destroyed 6,800 houses and businesses in the Pacific Palisades, inquisitive people in L.A. have wondered if a fire that firefighters allegedly put out a week before continued to smolder underground only to kick up on January 7 when it was breathed back into life by Santa Ana winds. According to the U.S. Attorney in Central California, Bill Essayli, investigators looking into what sparked the fire, the answer to that question is yes, but there are other considerations, which we’ll get to in a moment.
The alleged arsonist is believed to have set his family Bible on fire to spark the flames, admitting months later that he “Burned the Bible I had literally.”
Indeed, he admitted to ChatGPT: “I am 28 years old. And… I basically… This just happened. Maybe like… I don’t know, maybe like 3 months ago or something. Like, the realization of all this. I literally burnt the Bible that I had. It felt amazing. I felt so liberated.” About the same time he wrote to a family member that he had, “Burned the Bible I had literally.”
Thune on board for shutdown solution that would pass appropriations bills one by one
from www.washingtonexaminer.com
Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) is eying a proposal to end the government shutdown as the gridlock in Washington, D.C., enters its ninth day.
Thune is “ready” to use Congress’s appropriations process to open the government. It’s an arduous process lawmakers seek to use every year to pass 12 sweeping appropriations bills that provide government funding to different priorities, including defense, education, and healthcare.
Under Thune’s plan, he could wield his power as majority leader to bring a single appropriation bill to the floor one at a time if it has already been passed by the House, such as the defense package, according to Axios.
“We’re prepared to do that,” Thune told the outlet. “[But] that takes consent. We got to find out if the Dems are going to let us do anything while the government is shut down.”
Key Senate Democrats signaled they were on board with the idea, but argued it wouldn’t substantially change anything in terms of the government shutdown.
“There’s nothing holding [Thune] back from doing that,” Senate Appropriations Ranking Member Patty Murray (D-WA) said. “[But] that does not change where we are right now in the CR….we still have to negotiate with the House. The President has to sign it, so it’s a long way from anywhere.”
Judge Frees Chicago Protesters Charged with Ramming CBP Vehicle, Pending Trial
from www.newsbusters.org
On Tuesday, a judge released pending trial the two suspects arrested for ramming and boxing in a vehicle driven by a U.S. Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) agent in Chicago on Saturday, saying they were not a flight risk and could be trusted to appear in court.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Heather McShain was the judge who presided over the detention hearing, Judge McShain said, given that both are U.S. citizens and lifelong residents of Chicago with no criminal history, they can be released on bond, pending trial, WGN Chicago reports.
Marimar Martinez – reportedly armed with a semi-automatic weapon – and Anthony Ian Santos Ruiz were participating in a protest against federal immigration law enforcement in the city when they allegedly rammed the CBP vehicle and attempted to box it in.
According to the criminal complaint filed in U.S. District Court in Chicago, Martinez and Ruiz used their vehicles to strike the vehicle containing three CBP agents Saturday morning near the intersection of West 39th Street and South Kedzie Avenue on Chicago’s Southwest Side….
Fifty-two years ago, I found myself in a beautiful corner of central France as a camp counselor to twelve 8- and 9-year-old boys. Four were Algerian, and eight were French. I can still remember some of their names and faces: Kamal, Mohammed, Mustapha, Pierre, Michel, Nicholas, and Jean-Paul. It was a learning experience as well as a memorable one.
The camp lasted a month. I worked six days a week with one day off. On my day off, I would trek many kilometers to a small village called Le Chambon-sur-Lignon.
There, I enjoyed the peace and quiet of life away from twelve very active garçons (“boys”). I especially enjoyed several cups of robust café au lait, drunk leisurely with a croissant or a croque monsieur sandwich. While walking through the village or sitting at the café, I enjoyed observing the villagers. People-watching is one of my favorite pastimes. At the time, I was unaware that I was among a very special group of heroes and heroines.

A man was arrested with 200 “viable” explosives on Sunday. His target was a Catholic Mass known to be routinely attended by SCOTUS justices. Police found a manifesto expressing hatred for Christians, the Supreme Court, Jews and ICE.
It would have added to the 500+ attacks on churches since Roe v. Wade was overturned.
Within earshot of this arrest, the transgender would-be assassin of Justice Kavanaugh got leniency from a Biden-appointed judge. The judge, Deborah Boardman, sentenced the assassin to just eight years instead of the 30 recommended. The primary consideration was that the assassin identifies as transgender.
All this week, the public has witnessed astonishing behavior from authorities in Portland and Illinois. Violent members of Antifa in Portland commit crimes in plain view of police officers with impunity. Worse, they assault conservative reporters and police choose to arrest or blame the reporters.
You won’t see any pearl-clutching in coastal media newsrooms about the First Amendment implications of police arresting reporters who have been physically assaulted. They simply don’t count as “real” reporters. Also, “Antifa is just an idea,” they say.

Former Democrat Rep. Katie Porter hopes to replace term-limited California Governor Gavin Newsom but she almost stormed out of an interview when challenged on exactly how she intends to lure the Golden State’s Donald Trump voters to her side.
The Independent reports newly released footage of the California gubernatorial aspirant shows her getting testy and threatening to flee an interview as she grows increasingly flustered when pushed to detail her exact plans.
Followup questions left Porter looking a little pained and discombobulated as she clearly felt her interviewer be held beneath contempt for daring to challenge her.
The angry exchange came last month with journalist Julie Watts of CBS News California Investigates. It quickly went south when the reporter asked the former representative about her prospects of luring Republicans.
“What do you say to the 40 percent of California voters, who you’ll need in order to win, who voted for [President Donald] Trump?” Watts asked Porter.

David Harsanyi recently sounded the alarm in the New York Post that “Gen Z’s casual anti-Semitism is growing.” His warning has some merit, but it also reveals blind spots about the political context he prefers not to acknowledge.
Harsanyi isn’t wrong that ugly anti-Zionist and anti-Semitic rhetoric has surfaced in parts of the populist right. Plenty of very online commentators have insinuated — and in some instances insisted — that Charlie Kirk’s assassination was tied to Israel. Conspiracy theory claims circulate online that Jewish billionaires control conservative media, bribing or blackmailing Republicans into supporting Benjamin Netanyahu in Gaza no matter the cost.
Gen Z has broken old taboos. That’s healthy. But if Zoomers want to be taken seriously, they must separate legitimate criticism of US policy from adolescent conspiracy theories.
This is an “ugly turn,” but it didn’t appear out of thin air. Once the neoconservative gatekeepers lost their grip, a wider debate on the right was inevitable.
For decades, particular outlets and movement foundations policed what conservatives were allowed to say. That censorship has collapsed in the internet era, for better and worse.
I welcome the broader discussion on the right. It was overdue. But the opening comes with a price: young voices saying stupid and reckless things. Then again, establishment conservatives have spent years saying reckless things of their own. My own anthology of commentaries catalogs four decades of such elite nonsense — much of which never saw daylight in “respectable” venues such as National Review, Commentary, or the Wall Street Journal.

Suddenly Democrats who have long turned a blind eye to corruption within the Department of Justice (DOJ) are now worried about its weaponization.
Their timing could not be more disingenuous; it came during a hearing Tuesday, less than 24 hours after clear evidence that former President Joe “Autopen” Biden used the FBI to spy on Republicans. Documents show the FBI obtained cell phone records of eight Republican senators and a U.S. Representative for Jan. 4-8, 2021, as part of the “Arctic Frost” investigation. Arctic Frost eventually became Special Counsel Jack Smith‘s elector lawfare case against Trump.
The Federalist’s Shawn Fleetwood reported the following lawmakers were targeted: Rep. Mike Kelly, R-Penn; and Republican senators Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, Bill Hagerty and Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee, Josh Hawley of Missouri, Dan Sullivan of Alaska, Tommy Tuberville of Alabama, Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, and Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming. Some of these Republicans were in the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing Tuesday when Democrats had their great awakening while they were collecting testimony from Attorney General Pam Bondi.
President Donald Trump “embodies” weaponization, crowed Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn.
Sen. Chris Coons, D-Del., said he is “gravely concerned” about what will happen when Trump, “demands” Bondi prosecute individuals he views as “opponents or enemies.”
Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Ark., acknowledged that Democrats are now concerned about targeting political enemies.
Key Takeaways
- Weber State University canceled its Unity Conference due to concerns over compliance with a new state law restricting discussions on diversity, equity, and inclusion topics outside of academic settings.
- The cancellation sparked backlash over free speech and led to an alternative event, ‘Unity Conference: Uncensored version.’
- The Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression criticized the university for overinterpreting the law and limiting faculty speech.
Weber State University’s annual Unity Conference was recently canceled by administrators over concerns that its content would violate a new anti-diversity, equity and inclusion law in the state.
The irony? This year’s theme was on censorship.
The decision ignited a firestorm of debate about free speech and academic freedom — and prompted scholars to host an alternative event titled “Unity Conference: Uncensored version.”
… On Sunday, the police arrested a man outside of the Cathedral of St. Matthew the Apostle in Washington, DC, hours before the annual Red Mass held for Supreme Court justices to mark the start of their term.
Well, guess what: “During his arrest, Louis Geri threatened to ignite explosives and handed authorities pages of his notebook that, according to court records, expressed animosity toward the Catholic Church, Supreme Court justices, members of the Jewish faith and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.”
According to The Washington Post, the court papers allege Louis Geri, 41, of Arizona and New Jersey, warned the cops, “You might want to stay back and call the federales, I have explosives.”
Just wow:
The officer called over a sergeant with the bomb squad, court records show, who told Geri he had to move because there was an event. Geri — 41, of Vineland, New Jersey — said he knew about the event and continued to insist he had bombs.
“Do you want me to throw one out, I’ll test one out on the streets? I have a hundred-plus of them,” he told the sergeant, according to court records. “If you just step back, I’ll take out that tree. No one will get hurt, there will just be a hole where that tree used to be.”
When officers told Geri they were going to forcefully remove him if he did not leave, court documents show he responded by telling police that “several of your people are gonna die from one of these.”
WINCHESTER, Virginia—The one thing that has been consistent in covering Virginia’s off-year statewide elections since as far back as the year Republicans George Allen and Jim Gilmore ran for governor and attorney general, respectively, in 1993 is that the races really don’t start moving until September.
And when they do, they move fast.
Allen began that summer trailing badly in his race against Democrat Mary Sue Terry. Early polling showed her earning 56% support of Virginia’s voters to Allen’s 27%.
By September of that year, Allen had cut Terry’s lead from 18 percentage points to 6, according to the Mason-Dixon polling at that time that showed him trailing her 46%-40%.
Gilmore, who was running against Democrat Bill Dolan for attorney general, had also moved into a close race against Dolan.
Allen won by a whopping 58% of the vote to Terry’s 41%, marking the first time a Republican had won a statewide election since 1977. Gilmore defeated Dolan by 10 percentage points.
But let’s not hide behind claims that the lyrics that were released were simply being misconstrued. Not when you have a history of talking smack to those cops during an arrest for obstruction in 2023. Not when you warned fans against “insulting transgender people” during the height of the Bud Light controversy. And not when you scolded them for using expletives to insult Joe Biden.

She was prepared for them, but they were not prepared for her.
The aerobic freakout has begun inside the liberal media over the new owners of CBS News appointing “anti-woke” Bari Weiss to the new post of “Editor In Chief.” None of the CBS veterans want a new boss with a new ideology. They like pretending they don’t have an ideology. They call themselves courageously “independent.”
Paramount Chief Executive David Ellison wants to put CBS News firmly in the middle: “We want CBS to speak to that 70 percent of the audience that would really define themselves as center-left to center-right.”
In her initial memo to employees, Weiss stated several principles that are absolute anathema inside CBS: “Journalism that holds both American political parties to equal scrutiny,” and “Journalism that embraces a wide spectrum of views and voices so that the audience can contend with the best arguments on all sides of a debate.”
The anonymous leakers are already on fire. Jeremy Barr of The Guardian spread the early spurts: “CBS News veterans I’ve talked to are encouraging Bari Weiss to not mess with the Golden Goose(s) of 60 Minutes and CBS News Sunday Morning.”

If this were any other state (except for maybe New York), Katie Porter’s performance here would be detrimental to her gubernatorial aspirations. But because it’s California where Democrats could murder your mother in front of you and still get elected just so long as they aren’t Republican, she may have picked up 5% on the polls.
Not familiar with Rep. Katie Porter? She’s special:
She’s running in the Democrat primary to succeed Gavin Newscum as California governor. Newscum is attempting to subvert democracy with a scam to gerrymander California’s congressional districts even more gerrymandered than they already are, leaving 40+% of Republican Californians with only 9% of the congressional seats.
A question asked of all the candidates is if they agree with Newscum’s scheme, and if they care about the 40% of the state they are running to represent. Porter had her talking point prepared, but when the reporter followed up, she had her meltdown.

Feds Investigating Democrats After 250 Blank Ballots Are Found In Amazon Package– trendingpoliticsnews.com
Source Link
Excerpt:
State and federal authorities in Maine are investigating a jaw-dropping case of 250 blank ballots that were delivered to a voter in an Amazon box.
The inexplicable oversight is casting a pall over the office of Shenna Bellows, the Democratic secretary of state who last year attempted to keep President Donald Trump off Maine’s presidential ballot. Authorities were made aware after the ballots were reported missing by the town of Ellsworth, and a resident later called to report that her unanticipated Amazon delivery contained them.
The box appeared to have been opened and retaped when it arrived, the woman told investigators.
“Safe and secure elections are my top priority. As soon as we became aware of allegations of ballots being received outside of the appropriate chain of custody, I immediately initiated an investigation through my Secretary of State’s law enforcement division. Law enforcement is working diligently to determine who is responsible, and they will be held accountable. We will not stop until we have answers,” Bellows said in a statement to ABC News.
“This year, it seems that there may have been attempts to interrupt the distribution of ballots and ballot materials,” Bellows said later at a press conference.
“I have full confidence that law enforcement will determine who is responsible, and any bad actor will be held accountable,” she added.
White House debates pulling back pay from furloughed workers– www.washingtonexaminer.com
Source Link
Excerpt:
The White House is scrutinizing ways to keep federal workers who were furloughed during the government shutdown from receiving back pay.
The Trump administration is eyeing a memo from the Office of Management and Budget that asserts there is a loophole in a 2019 federal law seeking to ensure government workers are guaranteed retroactive compensation for time off during shutdowns, an administration official confirmed to the Washington Examiner.
The development comes as President Donald Trump and Republican leadership in the House and Senate seek to increase pressure on Democrats to pass a “clean” continuing resolution to reopen the government. If the White House acts on OMB’s recommendation, the Trump administration will say Democrats are to blame for as many as 750,000 federal workers being denied retroactive pay due to accusations that the opposition triggered the move by thwarting the CR’s passage.
The memo from OMB Director Russell Vought’s office argues that an amendment made to the Government Employee Fair Treatment Act nine days after the law’s original signing changes the interpretation of the back pay protections for furloughed workers, according to Axios. Rather than workers automatically getting back pay under GEFTA, Congress would have to get involved in funding retroactive salaries, under OMB’s interpretation of the law.

Excerpt:
The arraignment of former FBI Director James Comey was moved up to Wednesday morning at 10 am ET for ‘security reasons.’
“The arraignment of Defendant James B. Comey, Jr. shall begin promptly at 10:00 a.m. on Wednesday, October 8,2025, in Courtroom 600 on the Sixth Floor of the Albert V. Bryan United States Courthouse,” the judge wrote in a 2-page order.
“Because there are multiple previously-scheduled matters that are expected to draw large numbers of people to the courthouse at the same time as the arraignment, and because it is necessary to ensure the security of the Court, the parties, and the public, it is hereby ordered that Defendant is summoned to appear for arraignment before this Court on Wednesday, October 8, 2025, at 10 am.,” the judge said.
Comey was originally set to be arraigned this Thursday morning after he was indicted by a grand jury in the Eastern District of Virginia last month.
His case was assigned to US District Judge Michael Nachmanoff, a Biden appointee.
