  • Black male stabs white male. But victim uses racial slur AFTER stabbing — and Portland jury issues 'inconceivable' verdict. Mon, 08 Dec 2025 20:00:00 +0000


    A black male recently admitted in court that he stabbed a white male over the summer, but a Portland jury acquitted the black male after learning the victim uttered a racial slur — and spoke the word following the stabbing.

    Gary Edwards was charged with second-degree assault for knifing Gregory Howard Jr. on Northwest 5th Avenue in Portland's Old Town neighborhood on the morning of July 7, OregonLive reported last week.

    'Beyond inconceivable.'

    A conviction could have handed Edwards a sentence of five years and 10 months in state prison, OregonLive said.

    However, even though Edwards admitted on the witness stand to the stabbing, he said it was self-defense due to Howard's aggression, the outlet said.

    Edwards testified that Howard yelled the racist slur as soon as he saw him, the outlet reported, adding that Howard denied the claim.

    More from OregonLive:

    Transit cameras showed Edwards, a fixed-blade knife clasped at his side, approaching Howard from behind as he sat on a bench. The video has no sound, but Howard springs up and pushes Edwards as soon as he sees him. The duo scuffle against a wall for a brief moment, ending with Edwards stabbing Howard in the shoulder.

    Defense attorney Daniel Small said the most relevant evidence was recorded later when security officers heard the wounded man shouting the racist slur and captured it on their body cameras as he described the incident.

    Small added that Edwards, 43, was just approaching Howard, also 43, and offering a simple trade: his knife for cigarettes, the outlet said.

    "What other than racism could explain why Mr. Howard perceived hatred, animosity, and aggression from a complete stranger?" Small asked the jury on Oct. 30, the outlet reported.

    Prosecutor Katherine Williams countered that what Howard said after the knifing was irrelevant and that Edwards was always "in control" during the altercation, OregonLive said.

    "The defendant is not scared for his life. He didn’t retreat; he sauntered up — and he sauntered away after he stabbed someone," Williams told the jury, according to the outlet. "The defendant created the situation."

    Despite the prosecutor's argument, the jury soon acquitted Edwards, OregonLive said.

    More from the outlet:

    Edwards, who declined to comment through his attorney, spent about three months in custody before the trial, after prosecutors successfully argued he shouldn't be released.

    Their memo noted that Edwards was convicted of attempted second-degree assault in 2021 and was sentenced to three years in prison for another stabbing at the Skidmore Fountain MAX platform in May 2020. He was accused of fourth-degree assault for fighting with a clerk at Old Town's Helen's Market, but the case was dismissed in June because no public defender was available to take his case.

    Howard, meanwhile, has been arrested several times in recent years and was convicted of felony rape of a child in Washington's Kitsap County in 1997, records show. He couldn't be reached for comment.

    The New York Post's Facebook entry about the acquittal generated well over 1,000 comments — and they're the exact kinds of reactions you would expect. The following are a few of them:

    • "Always remember if you're shot or stabbed, you must give some type of positive affirmation to your attacker so you don't sound hateful," one commenter wrote. "Otherwise your attacker will be acquitted."
    • "It was probably a mostly peaceful stabbing," another user quipped.
    • "That's wild. So let me get this right ... He got attacked then said the N word, and the attacker got away with it cause he said it after he was already attacked?" another commenter asked. "That makes no sense."
    • "Beyond inconceivable," another user stated.
    • "What a funny world we live in," another commenter observed.
    • "Staying out of Portland ..." another user shared.

  • Alina Habba resigns over court ruling — but warns: 'Do not mistake compliance for surrender' Mon, 08 Dec 2025 19:45:36 +0000


    The president's former personal attorney Alina Habba has resigned from the U.S. attorney's office for New Jersey after an appeals court ruled that the administration had improperly installed her in the position.

    U.S. Attorney Pam Bondi decried the ruling and accused "politicized judges" of making Habba's position "untenable" and lauded her record of achievements.

    'Make no mistake, you can take the girl out of New Jersey, but you cannot take New Jersey out of the girl.'

    Habba released a defiant statement where she blamed judges who have become "weapons for the politicized left" for her resignation.

    "For months, these judges stopped conducting trials and entering sentences, leaving violent criminals on the streets. They joined New Jersey senators, who care more about fighting President Trump than the well being of residents which they serve," Habba wrote. "What these obstructionists misunderstood is that my loyalty is not to politics, a title, or a ZIP code. It is to this great country."

    The panel of three judges on the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said that Habba was disqualified from the position. She had been sworn in as the acting U.S. attorney for New Jersey at the end of March.

    "As a result of the Third Circuit's ruling, and to protect the stability and integrity of the office which I love, I have decided to step down in my role as the U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey," Habba continued.

    "But do not mistake compliance for surrender," she added. "This decision will not weaken the Justice Department and it will not weaken me. My fight will now stretch across the country. As we wait for further review of the courts ruling, I will continue to serve the Department of Justice as the Senior Advisor to the Attorney General for U.S. Attorneys."

    Bondi said that the Department of Justice would continue to seek further review of the ruling and install Habba back in the office if it is able to overturn the decision.

    "Make no mistake, you can take the girl out of New Jersey, but you cannot take New Jersey out of the girl," Habba concluded.

    Habba was also the target of a bizarre incident in November where a man tried to "confront her" and then destroyed property at her office, according to a statement from Bondi.

    "Any violence or threats of violence against any federal officer will not be tolerated. Period," Bondi said in a statement at the time. "This is unfortunately becoming a trend as radicals continue to attack law enforcement agents around the country."

  • 'Law enforcement isn't to prevent crime' — Jasmine Crockett makes wild claims about ICE and National Guard Mon, 08 Dec 2025 19:20:00 +0000


    Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett of Texas has some interesting ideas on how law enforcement should be utilized.

    Crockett was speaking on the "Grounded" podcast when she was asked about the presence of military vehicles in cities like Washington, D.C., and Chicago.

    'They are not trained to deal with civilians in that way.'

    Host Jon Tester wanted to hear Crockett's thoughts, asking the congresswoman if she thought it was good or bad to have military presence in those cities.

    "I think it's terrible," the politician replied. "First of all, you know, I'm like, how is it that we have a government that is hostile towards its people? Because that's what it is. I mean, we are in the midst of a hostile government takeover, and it is our government that is, like, bringing the hostility."

    Crockett prefaced her remarks, made in September but now going viral, by saying that she would need to go into "legal mode" to explain how agencies like ICE and the United States Armed Forces are being misused by the Trump administration.

    It was during that portion of her statements that Crockett made the odd claim about how local law enforcement is supposed to operate:

    "I want to be clear that, like, law enforcement isn't to prevent crime. Law enforcement solves crime. OK? That is what they are supposed to do. They are supposed to solve crimes, not necessarily, um, prevent them from happening per se."

    RELATED: Jasmine Crockett claims Republicans ‘LOVE’ her

    In addition to those views, Crockett claimed she does not believe the "average person" understands the different types of training that various law enforcement or military agencies undergo.

    "So literally ICE is not trained to go out and do what they're doing," the 44-year-old stated.

    However, not only do ICE's Enforcement and Removal operations teams train for "arrest, detention, and removal of aliens," but the American Immigration Lawyers Association even called ICE agents "among the most highly trained federal law enforcement officers in the United States" in 2018.

    Moreover, the St. Louis native said she worried about the U.S. military's "readiness" due to the Trump administration "not doing smart things" with its allies. She then cited "different training" and different missions as being the reasons why she believes ICE and the National Guard are being misused by Trump.

    RELATED: Far-left Democrat spent thousands on luxury travel, including limousines and posh hotels, filings show

    "Local law enforcement, whether it's your local municipal police, your sheriff's deputies, your state troopers, they are trained completely differently. They are the ones that are trained in investigatory work. They are the ones that are trained on how to testify in trial, how to pull a case together. Same thing with, like, your FBI, your DEA, and that kind of stuff," Crockett went on.

    The congresswoman then boldly claimed that those who signed up for the military do not have the training to deal with civilians.

    "We are taking those that signed up for the service in whatever capacity, and we are now putting them on the streets and having them with guns. They are not trained to deal with civilians in that way. That is not what they are trained to do. Like, when you sign up for any military, you are a trained killer. You are trained for war, not for going and policing our streets. All right?"

    Not only are civilian interactions common practice in training operations for U.S. military members, per official training documents, but the District of Columbia National Guard specifically trained for civilian interactions as recently as May 2024 under the Joe Biden administration.

    The training noted the D.C. National Guard as having a long history of supporting operations in D.C. and that the training would help the entity "continue to support local law enforcement agencies in the metropolitan area."

  • Illinois, Gov. Pritzker have released almost 1,800 violent illegal aliens back onto the streets in defiance of ICE, DHS says Mon, 08 Dec 2025 19:05:00 +0000


    Sanctuary politicians have apparently been ignoring orders from Immigration and Customs Enforcement for months, effectively allowing criminal illegal aliens to be released back onto the streets — and the Department of Homeland Security is not happy about it.

    The DHS reported on Monday in a press release that Democrat politicians have repeatedly defied ICE by ignoring arrest detainers.

    'We are calling on Governor Pritzker and his administration to stop this dangerous derangement and commit to honoring the ICE arrest detainers of the more than 4,000 criminal illegal aliens in Illinois' custody.'

    The press release singled out Illinois and Democratic Governor J.B. Pritzker, one of the most vocal political opponents of ICE operations under President Trump.

    The press release stated that 1,768 criminal illegal aliens have been released in Illinois alone since January 20, 2025.

    The crimes committed by these illegal aliens include homicide, assault, burglary, robbery, dangerous drug offenses, weapons offenses, and sexual offenses, according to the press release.

    There are currently 4,015 aliens in Illinois' custody, the majority of whom have committed crimes such as those listed above.

    "Governor Pritzker and his fellow Illinois sanctuary politicians are releasing murderers, pedophiles, and kidnappers back into our neighborhoods and putting American lives at risk," Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said.

    "We are calling on Governor Pritzker and his administration to stop this dangerous derangement and commit to honoring the ICE arrest detainers of the more than 4,000 criminal illegal aliens in Illinois' custody," McLaughlin continued. "It is common sense. Criminal illegal aliens should not be released back onto our streets to terrorize more innocent Americans."

    In September, ICE demanded that leaders in sanctuary states like California, New York, and Illinois cooperate with the federal agency to keep criminals off the streets.

    ICE also warned these states that it would "engage with the Department of Justice and other federal partners to pursue all appropriate measures to end their inadvisable and irresponsible obstruction of the apprehension and removal of criminal illegal aliens."

    Previously, Illinois and New York sent ICE responses that "underscored their refusal to honor ICE detainers." California did not respond, according to ICE.

    According to its website, ICE issues immigration detainers to law enforcement to ask them to hold suspects for up to 48 hours longer than their scheduled release.

    ICE issues these arrest detainers after it has already established probable cause that suspects are removable, usually on account of convictions for other crimes such as homicide, sexual assault, burglaries and robberies, and drug and human trafficking.

    ICE makes it clear that honoring arrest detainers helps guarantee safety for both the public and law enforcement officers: "When jails, prisons, or other confinement facilities agree to honor immigration detainers, ICE officers can take custody of removable aliens in a safe, controlled environment instead of at-large in the community."

    DHS' Monday press release included nine mug shots of the "worst of the worst" criminals who had previously been released in Illinois after their detainer requests were ignored by state officials.

    The criminal illegal aliens either are now in ICE custody or have been removed from the United States.

  • Meta retreats in Washington as socialist Democrat brandishes new corporate tax hikes Mon, 08 Dec 2025 18:46:37 +0000


    Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has narrowly avoided a costly disaster.

    When Meta bought the rights to more land in Bellevue, Washington, in 2020, it brought the company's potential footprint in the area up to more than 3 million square feet. After five years of expansions, subleases, and plan changes, Zuckerberg's company had to decide if it wanted to dive fully into the expansion it was offered or stay with what it had.

  • Big win: Christian student defeats school’s ‘no Bible verse’ rule Mon, 08 Dec 2025 18:09:20 +0000


    When Colorado high school senior Sophia Shumaker was offered the chance to paint a design of her choice on her senior parking spot at the school, Shumaker didn’t hesitate to include her religion.

    “I originally wanted to choose the parable from Luke 15 of the shepherd and the 99 sheep, but then I kind of altered it to a backwards fish,” Shumaker tells BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey on “Relatable.”

    “The backwards fish is kind of what people in the Bible used to draw in the dirt when they couldn’t really talk about religion and they wanted to know if the other people were Christians,” Shumaker explains.

    “It was against the rules to do Christian imagery,” she adds.


    “When she was told she couldn’t do the original design ... she decided to do the backwards fish sort of in somewhat of a protest of not being able to do the original design,” First Liberty attorney Keisha Russell chimes in.

    “They said just because of the religious imagery and the Bible verse, it probably wouldn’t get approved and stuff like that. And so, I didn’t want to go through all the hassle, and so I just changed the design completely to kind of symbolize my Christianity, but I don’t think they really knew what it was,” Shumaker says.

    When Shumaker told her mother that she had to change her design because it promoted her religion, her mother decided to reach out to First Liberty — which had taken on a very similar case in the past.

    “They said they would take our case, and then the news got involved, and then they sent the letter to my school, and within a couple days the case was over. And it got approved, and I got to repaint it,” Shumaker tells Stuckey.

    “The other different thing about this case was that throughout the district, other seniors were allowed to put religious things on their parking spaces. So, now you have this sort of inconsistent policy being applied differently, which makes the case very difficult for the school district,” Russell chimes in.

    “It’s harder for them to say, ‘Oh, we’re controlling this. This is just government speech,’ when clearly they’re not. And so, when we wrote the letter, we included all of that, and we just said, ‘Look, we’d like to resolve this amicably with a letter, but we are willing to sue you if you continue to violate her rights. And so, we’re asking you to change your policy and let Sophia paint what she wanted to paint,’” she continues.

    After the news got involved, the school “relented,” and “not only did they let Sophia repaint her spot, but they changed their entire policy” and removed the religious restrictions, Russell explains.

    “So, really, really great outcome in this case,” she adds.

  • Radicals want Usha Vance deported from US after vice president highlights problems with mass migration Mon, 08 Dec 2025 18:05:00 +0000


    Vice President JD Vance appears to have struck a nerve on the left and among foreigners with his recent comments about the fallout of mass migration. Rather than rebut Vance's claims, liberals have instead attacked his family and called for their removal from the country.

    "Mass migration is theft of the American Dream," Vance wrote in an X post on Sunday that has received a great deal of attention from Indian media outlets. "It has always been this way, and every position paper, think tank piece, and economic study suggesting otherwise is paid for by the people getting rich off the old system."

    Accompanying the vice president's comments was a video of a self-identified construction company owner in Louisiana discussing the positive impact of the Trump administration's immigration crackdown.

    'You have to send Usha, her Indian family, and your biracial kids back to India.'

    "So we've had ICE and DHS down in Louisiana for about a week now," said the 27-year-old entrepreneur who said his last name was Flores. "I'm seeing firsthand just the shockwave them boys are sending across this state. No immigrants want to go to work. None of 'em even want to ride in a truck like mine with a ladder rack on it — and it is so amazing. I've gotten more calls in the last week than I've gotten in the last three months."

    The entrepreneur suggested that the recent demand for citizen labor "just shows you how bad the problem is down here in Louisiana."

    Vance has repeatedly sounded the alarm about wage suppression and other consequences suffered by American-born citizens as a result of the mass migration enabled by previous administrations.

    At an October Turning Point USA event at the University of Mississippi, Vance noted that "thanks in part to the Biden border invasion but also thanks in part to a lot of bad immigration policy, right now, we have let in too many immigrants into the United States of America."

    The Pew Research Center indicated that as of January 2025, there were 53.3 million immigrants living in the U.S. — the largest number ever recorded. Over 15% of all U.S. residents and 19% of the U.S. labor force were immigrants.

    Vance noted that the evidence was "pretty clear" that many of the over one million migrants who legally enter the U.S. annually "are actually undercutting the wages of American workers" and that the H-1B visa has effectively allowed companies to pay a discount on what they would have paid an American citizen.

    Like his statements in October, Vance's Sunday remarks about the theft of the American dream enraged activists and interlopers.

    Among those prickled by Vance's remarks was Wajahat Ali, a former columnist at the Daily Beast and contributor to the New York Times, who recently suggested that it was futile to send antipathetic foreigners packing because they supposedly enjoy too strong a foothold in the U.S. owing to chain migration, miscegenation, and their fecundity.

    Ali, responding to Vance's "theft of the American Dream" post, wrote, "That means you have to send Usha, her Indian family, and your biracial kids back to India."

    "Let us know when [sic] buy the plane tickets," continued the son of convicted fraudsters who immigrated to the U.S. from Pakistan. "You must lead by example."

    Usha Vance — a Yale Law School graduate who served as a law clerk for Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts — is, like her three children, an American citizen born in the United States. Additionally her immigrant parents aren't a pair of low-skilled laborers who came to suppress working-class wages but are rather a high-skilled couple — a mechanical engineer father and a molecular biologist mother.

    Whatever example would be set by removing Vance's family members would have nothing to do with the point the vice president was making. Nevertheless others joined Ali in strategically lumping Vance's U.S.-born family members in with the low-skilled foreign-born horde and/or calling for their removal from the country.

    The popular U.K.-based X user @AdameMedia, for instance, wrote, "Your wife and children are stealing the American dream."

    Vance's office did not respond to Blaze News' request for comment.

  • $4,500 fee to own a car? Welcome to Virginia. Mon, 08 Dec 2025 18:00:00 +0000


    Most Americans assume that once you buy your car, pay the sales tax, register it, and keep up with routine fees, you have met your financial obligations as a vehicle owner.

    Unfortunately, that is far from reality in many parts of the country.

    Yearly taxes based on fluctuating and often overestimated valuations create financial unpredictability that families cannot plan for.

    The most glaring example right now is Virginia, where residents are dealing with a yearly tax system that feels less like responsible public policy and more like a state-sponsored shakedown.

    Number crunch

    A Virginia man recently opened his annual vehicle property tax bill to find a stunning total: some $4,500. He wasn’t being penalized for late fees, accidents, or violations. There were no repairs included. This wasn’t registration or insurance. It was simply a tax for owning vehicles he had already paid off.

    The state assigns an assessed value to each vehicle, applies a rate of $2.35 per $100 of that value, and charges the owner every single month the vehicle remains titled in his name. This is just for owning the car. Nothing more.

    What most people don’t realize is that the government is the one deciding what your vehicle is “worth” — not you, not the market, and definitely not an actual buyer.

    Market markup

    In states that impose yearly vehicle property taxes, the valuation is created by your local tax assessor or commissioner of the revenue. They rely on industry databases like NADA Guides, J.D. Power, and Black Book to determine a “fair market value,” even if that value has nothing to do with your vehicle’s real condition or current market demand.

    That means your car’s official valuation can increase even as it ages, simply because the guidebooks reflect a national trend or a temporary spike in used car prices. The state then taxes you on that number, regardless of whether you could actually sell your car for it.

    Owners can appeal these valuations, but anyone who has tried knows the process is frustrating and rarely successful. To dispute the number, you have to prove high mileage, major mechanical problems, or accident history — all while the county defends its valuation because those inflated numbers generate revenue. You can own a dented, high-mileage car and still get taxed as if it were pristine. That disconnect is part of what makes the system feel so unfair.

    Doubly taxing

    This entire setup creates a perpetual double-taxation model. When you buy a vehicle, you pay sales tax up front. Depending on the state, that can be significant. But in states like Virginia, you pay again every single year for as long as you own it. Registration fees, insurance requirements, state inspections, emissions testing, fuel taxes, and local add-on fees layer on top of that. For families with multiple drivers, or rural residents who depend on vehicles to get anywhere, these recurring charges become a major burden.

    And now, the federal government wants to add another layer.

    The House Transportation & Infrastructure Committee has introduced a proposal to impose new annual federal taxes on all registered vehicles: $200 per year for electric vehicles, $100 for hybrids, and $20 for every other passenger vehicle. These fees would apply indefinitely, regardless of driving habits, condition, income level, or vehicle necessity. The proposal is expected to raise around $7 billion per year, but even that only fills about one-third of the current shortfall in the Highway Trust Fund.

    What’s worse is that the same bill delivers an average tax cut of $278,000 over ten years to the top 0.1% of earners. Everyday Americans pay more to keep driving, while the wealthiest see the biggest benefits. This imbalance is fueling much of the outrage behind the current debate.

    Human cost

    Historically, gas taxes funded the nation’s highway system because they acted as a logical user fee. The more you drive, the more fuel you buy, and the more you contribute to maintaining the infrastructure you actually use.

    The problem is that gas taxes haven’t been adjusted for inflation since 1993. As vehicles have become more fuel-efficient, the revenue stream has fallen behind. Instead of modernizing the system or transitioning toward a fair mileage-based model tied to real road usage, policymakers have increasingly leaned on ownership-based taxes — the least fair approach of all.

    The human cost of these policies rarely gets attention. For many Americans, a vehicle isn’t a luxury; it’s the only way to get to work, take kids to school, make doctor appointments, or care for elderly relatives. Yearly taxes based on fluctuating and often overestimated valuations create financial unpredictability that families cannot plan for. They also disproportionately hurt the same people who rely on older vehicles because they can’t afford new ones.

    Return to fairness

    There are far better solutions available. Policymakers could update fuel taxes to reflect inflation, adopt a realistic and privacy-protected mileage-based approach, streamline wasteful transportation spending, and prioritize projects that genuinely improve infrastructure safety and efficiency. All of these would create a transparent model where people contribute based on actual use, not on arbitrary valuations created in government offices.

    Virginia’s situation has become a flash point because it reflects a national trend: Americans feel squeezed, and they are increasingly questioning why the government continues to charge them — year after year — for something they already own. Vehicle property taxation may look like easy revenue on paper, but it is deeply disconnected from economic reality and from what drivers need to stay mobile and financially stable.

    Ending annual vehicle taxation isn’t a radical idea. It’s a return to fairness and common sense. When you’ve already paid sales tax, kept up with registrations, and followed every rule required to drive legally, the government should not be allowed to treat your car like a permanent ATM. The pushback we are seeing now is long overdue, and lawmakers would be wise to pay attention.

  • 'Low IQ traitor': Trump torches MTG after she claims he 'directly fueled' death threats against her Mon, 08 Dec 2025 16:53:52 +0000


    President Donald Trump torched Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia on social media after her highly anticipated "60 Minutes" interview aired on Sunday.

    For years, Greene was Trump's biggest cheerleader in Congress, coming to bat for the president on nearly every political cause. Their unique alliance crumbled in November after Trump made a shocking move to withdraw his endorsement of Greene.

    'Her new views are those of a very dumb person.'

    Greene maintained that the split was due to her demand for the unconditional release of the Epstein files, while other reports suggest she wanted to pursue higher office and Trump discouraged her from doing so, leaving the Georgia Republican jaded. Greene promptly announced that she was resigning from Congress and stepping down in January.

    While Trump continues to harshly criticize his former ally, Greene has been making the rounds in various outlets with which she has been combative in the past. Her appearance on "60 Minutes" on CBS garnered even more backlash from Trump and his supporters.

    During the interview with host Lesley Stahl, Greene remarked on the increase in death threats against her and her family, saying they were "directly fueled by President Trump."

    Trump said the real reason Greene and the MAGA movement parted ways was because she was "jilted."

    "Too much work, not enough time, and her ideas are, NOW, really BAD - She sort of reminds me of a Rotten Apple!" Trump wrote in a Monday Truth Social post. "Marjorie is not AMERICA FIRST or MAGA, because nobody could have changed her views so fast, and her new views are those of a very dumb person."

    Greene's office did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Blaze News.

    Trump described Greene as "a very poorly prepared Traitor, who in her confusion made many really stupid statements" to Stahl.

    Trump went on to criticize the new ownership of the "60 Minutes" program and to demand an apology from "Trump hating" Stahl for her contentious interview with him during his first term, just before the 2020 presidential election.

    "Stahl ... still owes me an apology from when she attacked me on the show (with serious conviction!), that Hunter Biden's LAPTOP FROM HELL was produced by Russia, not Hunter himself (TOTALLY PROVEN WRONG!)," Trump wrote.

    "My real problem with the show, however, wasn't the low IQ traitor," Trump continued, referring to Greene, "it was that the new ownership of 60 Minutes, Paramount, would allow a show like this to air."

  • Can presidents fire all federal bureaucrats at will? Supreme Court to hear case with major implications Mon, 08 Dec 2025 16:16:00 +0000


    President Donald Trump's work to dismantle the administrative state has reached a tipping point that could have major implications for the future. The Supreme Court is set to hear arguments that will determine President Trump's firing power at federal agencies, specifically at the Federal Trade Commission.

    On Monday, the court will hear arguments that will challenge a 90-year-old precedent from Humphrey's Executor v. United States.

    A Supreme Court decision in President Trump's favor could rewrite the bounds of presidential power over the administrative state.

    The case before the court came after President Trump fired Federal Trade Commissioner Rebecca Slaughter over email in March. Trump did not cite any legal reasoning for Slaughter's firing, even though Humphrey's Executor states that an FTC commissioner may be fired only for "inefficiency, neglect of duty, or malfeasance in office."

    Trump has also fired employees at the National Labor Relations Board, the Merit Systems Protection Board, and the Consumer Product Safety Commission.

    Trump has been challenged on other high-profile firings in recent months, including those of Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook and a copyright official at the Library of Congress, Shira Perlmutter. They have both successfully avoided losing their positions thus far.

    Though the FTC is likely to be treated differently because of the precedent, a Supreme Court decision in President Trump's favor could rewrite the bounds of presidential power over the administrative state.

    The court currently has a 6-3 conservative majority. Three of the justices were appointed during Trump's first term.

  • 'Enemy of Europe': Liberal globalists attack Trump over recognizing 'civilizational erasure' in Europe Mon, 08 Dec 2025 15:45:00 +0000


    President Donald Trump has set about bringing the "golden age of America" into existence though appears keen also to strengthen Western civilization at large. Nations across the Atlantic have, however, proven reluctant to join the U.S. in rejecting the "false song of globalism" and in turning away the hordes of unassimilable migrants who threaten to transform their lands into places both unsafe and unrecognizable.

    The Trump administration made abundantly clear in its newly released 33-page National Security Strategy that European allies now have a choice to make: lean into their strengths and former greatness, reassert their national identities, and reject the liberal policies that have led them to relative ruin or continue down the path to "civilizational erasure" without the United States of America holding their hands.

    'We want Europe to remain European.'

    European officials and liberals on both sides of the Atlantic — including a former Obama official — have melted down over the document, attacking the Trump administration for daring to identify the threat and choice now facing Europe.

    In civilizational terms

    The administration has attempted on several occasions to give America's European allies a helmet readjustment.

    Vice President JD Vance, for instance, noted in a Feb. 14 speech at the Munich Security Conference in Europe that it is high time to "change course and take our shared civilization in a new direction."

    In addition to blasting the British and European political establishment for their ruinous mass migration polices, Vance expressed disappointment over their suppression of popular political movements, crackdown on free speech, and routine attacks on religious liberties.

    The State Department has similarly expressed concerns about the trends weakening Europe and the need for America's friends across the Atlantic to buck up and get their affairs in order.

    In a May essay shared on its Substack, the State Department suggested that the globalist liberal campaign to "usher in an era of unprecedented peace" in the wake of World War II "by overcoming the anchors of nationhood, culture, and tradition" was a colossal failure.

    "This promise lies in tatters," wrote Samuel Samson, a senior adviser for the State Department's Bureau for Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor. "What endures instead is an aggressive campaign against Western civilization itself."

    "Our relationship is too important, our history too valuable, and the international stakes too high to allow this partnership to be undermined," continued the essay. "Therefore, on both sides of the Atlantic, we must preserve the goods of our common culture, ensuring that Western civilization remains a source of virtue, freedom, and human flourishing for generations to come."

    Trump's national security strategy

    The 33-page National Security Strategy document released by the Trump administration on Friday signaled a continued break with the thinking of previous administrations on a number of matters, including on America's special relationship with Europe, which the document suggested is conditional on Europe maintaining its values and culture.

    In a section titled "Promoting European Greatness," the document notes that Europe has lost significant share of global GDP over the past 35 years largely as the result of "national and transnational regulations," "but this economic decline is eclipsed by the real and more stark prospect of civilizational erasure."

    "The larger issues facing Europe include activities of the European Union and other transnational bodies that undermine political liberty and sovereignty, migration policies that are transforming the continent and creating strife, censorship of free speech and suppression of political opposition, cratering birthrates, and loss of national identities and self-confidence," continued the strategy document. "Should present trends continue, the continent will be unrecognizable in 20 years or less."

    The Trump administration's strategy document indicated that if certain NATO members continue down their present path, they might not only cease to be recognizably European but cease to remain "reliable allies."

    Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau summarized on X that despite insisting upon transatlantic cooperation while wearing their NATO hats, "when these countries wear their EU hats, they pursue all sorts of agendas that are often utterly adverse to US interests and security — including censorship, economic suicide/climate fanaticism, open borders, disdain for national sovereignty/promotion of multilateral governance and taxation, support for Communist Cuba, etc etc. This inconsistency cannot continue."

    "Either the great nations of Europe are our partners in protecting the Western civilization that we inherited from them or they are not," continued Landau. "But we cannot pretend that we are partners while those nations allow the EU’s unelected, undemocratic, and unrepresentative bureaucracy in Brussels to pursue policies of civilizational suicide."

    With the understanding that "Europe remains strategically and culturally vital to the United States" and that the U.S. cannot "afford to write Europe off," the Trump administration emphasized its support for "genuine democracy, freedom of expression, and unapologetic celebrations of European nations’ individual character and history," and recommended its European allies get their acts together.

    Backlash from the usual suspects

    The strategy document was welcomed by many of those on both sides of the Atlantic who've read the writing on the wall and paid close attention to the various crises now destabilizing Europe.

    British-American historian Niall Ferguson noted, for instance, "However unpalatable you may find this analysis, you will struggle to find evidence to the contrary. My better-informed British and European friends whisper it softly: 'Maybe it's true.'"

    'We must stop behaving as a friend.'

    Missouri Sen. Eric Schmitt (R) wrote, "America is back to practicing a foreign policy rooted in strength, restraint, and national interest, not Wilsonian fantasy. The new National Security Strategy marks a clear return to a distinctly American tradition: Realism."

    Of course, those supportive of Europe's current path condemned the document.

    Valerie Hayer, a member of the European Parliament and president of the liberal political group Renew Europe, called the document "unacceptable and dangerous," stating that the Trump administration "has no right to question what makes the European Union, its values, its democratic choices" and no right "to attempt to impose onto our territory the xenophobic and ultra-conservative vision of the MAGA networks."

    Hayer suggested further that the National Security Strategy served as confirmation that the "Trump administration is an enemy of Europe" and that "we must stop behaving as a friend toward it."

    Shashank Joshi, an editor at the Economist, echoed Hayer, saying it was "a radical, dangerous document" and suggesting the strategy was to "Make Europe White Again."

    Brett Bruen, a former diplomat who served as director of global engagement at the Obama White House, told the Independent that the plan was a "disastrously dumb, deeply damaging document for American diplomacy."

    "It only further fuels distrust and puts more distance between Washington and the allies we most desperately need to ensure our own security and prosperity," added Bruen.

    The German foreign minister, Johann Wadephul, was reportedly also prickled by the document, stating that "we see ourselves as being able to discuss and debate these matters entirely on our own in the future, and do not need outside advice."

    In Wadephul's country, which had a birthrate of 1.35 children per woman last year, has in recent years, like other European nations, suffered an explosion in violent crime as a result of its admission of third-world migrants; has a capital city with apparent no-go zones where Jews and homosexuals cannot safely transit certain areas; and has sought to ban, vilify, disarm, debank, and criminalize the popular party that has attempted to turn things around.

  • Can conservatives reclaim pop culture? Mon, 08 Dec 2025 15:30:00 +0000


    Remember when the Duke ruled movie Westerns … studio moguls Walt Disney, Sam Goldwyn and Cecil B. DeMille called the GOP home … and the Hays Code kept movies squeaky-clean?

    Well, Hollywood took a left turn about 50 years ago and hasn't looked back.

    Both Mark Wahlberg, a star of deep Christian faith, and actor Zachary Levi are mulling production studios far from the Golden State.

    Are we finally ready for a course correction?

    Coming attractions

    We’ve already seen rebel outfits like the Daily Wire, Breitbart News, and this site's parent company produce feature films and TV shows from a non-progressive lens. Dude-bro podcasters Joe Rogan and Andrew Schulz ignored the DNC talking points during the 2024 presidential election, with some suggesting their political chats played a role in President Donald Trump’s re-election.

    Liberal late-night TV may be going the way of the eight-track tape, given current trends, while the right-leaning “Gutfeld!” outperforms Colbert and company.

    That all may be dwarfed by what’s coming next.

    David Ellison, son of billionaire Trump supporter Larry, now calls the shots at Paramount after a high-profile deal secured the purchase earlier this year. David Ellison isn’t MAGA, but he’s also not woke or eager to mock half the country.

    One of his first deals with Paramount was to secure the rights to UFC events, hardly a coastal elite move. Next June, expect an MMA battle royale on the White House lawn to celebrate the nation’s 250th birthday.

    He also purchased the Free Press and named founder Bari Weiss the head of CBS News. Weiss’ company gave conservatives a fair shake and treated the news like … news, not progressive propaganda, under her management.

    That suggests Ellison understands the culture wars and thinks appealing to the middle is a wise path forward. It explains why Paramount denounced a far-left celebrity push to boycott Israeli-themed films due to the nation’s so-called genocidal actions against Palestinians.

    That’s more MAGA than Hollywood business as usual.

    The right stuff

    Plus, a November report from Variety shared several Paramount projects with a definitive Heartland appeal, from a “Top Gun” sequel to a “Taken” variation with a cowboy spin. And then there’s the much-publicized “Rush Hour 4” sequel, spurred on reportedly by none other than President Trump himself.

    The one early flaw in Ellison’s plans? He allowed TV superstar Taylor Sheridan to flee Paramount for NBCUniversal. Sheridan’s red-state-friendly shows, from “Yellowstone” to “Landman,” have upended the TV landscape, and he’ll only grow stronger under his new deal.

    Sheridan’s emergence is another reason for right-leaning optimism. Once again, the prolific creator isn’t conservative, per se, but he’s willing to tell stories today’s Hollywood wouldn’t touch. His male characters exude a rugged, old-school masculinity that is often missing in other parts of the TV landscape.

    A Sheridan show sounds and looks different from most modern programs. A perfect case in point? Billy Bob Thornton’s character, a world-weary oil guru, eviscerates the green movement in “Landman” season one. Would a similar rant be heard on any broadcast show? HBO Max? Netflix?

    Unlikely.

    Zach attack

    More intriguing signs abound. Both Mark Wahlberg, a star of deep Christian faith, and actor Zachary Levi are mulling production studios far from the Golden State. That’s more potential disruptions to the status quo, fed by storytellers who don’t pledge allegiance to the progressive flag.

    Angel Studios, the successful TV company now making feature films, offers a fresh take on the standard Hollywood slate.

    And then there’s the current first lady. Melania Trump is the focus of a new documentary film bowing next month. She’s using her Hollywood close-up to announce a new production company called Muse Films.

    That’s following in the Obamas’ footsteps. The former first couple created Higher Ground Productions and partnered up with Netflix after leaving the White House. No matter where one stands on the Obama record, the couple knows cultural soft power matters.

    So do the Trumps.

    Retaking Hollywood

    The real X factor may be AI run wild. Conservative artists don’t have the same access to cash that liberals possess. What if a savvy libertarian could create a film via AI, post it on YouTube or Rumble, and rock the culture without breaking the bank? How might that even the culture wars in ways the modern left can’t stop?

    Conservatives still have a long, long way to go. Far-left auteur Aaron Sorkin revisits Jan. 6 in the upcoming “The Social Reckoning,” a movie sure to gin up Oscar buzz and endless fawning press coverage following its Oct. 2026 release. It is one of many projects that subscribe to a hard-left perspective.

    Take this year’s “One Battle After Another,” a morally warped love letter to anti-government violence. It’s the odds-on favorite to win the Best Picture Oscar come March. Another Oscar darling is “No Other Choice,” director Park Chan-wook's anti-capitalist screed.

    Plus, the Hollywood press will cover most right-leaning entertainment projects in a negative light, hoping to keep pop culture firmly in the hands of progressives. Remember how reporters raged against “Sound of Freedom,” a film cheering efforts to stop child sex traffickers? That movie wasn’t conservative or faith-based, but some assumed it was one or both, and that was enough for media outlets to both pounce and seize on it.

    And for every rebel documentary like “The Fall of Minneapolis,” “Am I Racist?” or “October 8,” there are dozens promoting hard-left agendas. The existing Tinseltown infrastructure nurtures and promotes left-leaning stories and storytellers.

    That won’t be easy to duplicate, let alone compete against.

    Team Ellison will face overwhelming pressure to reject right-leaning impulses from Democrat politicians, media platforms, and garden-variety progressives. It could end up easier for Ellison and company to go along with Hollywood’s liberal orthodoxy than to effect real change.

    Or Ellison could see this moment as the perfect time to perform an ideological pivot. The days of ignoring, if not insulting, half the country no longer makes business sense. It’s show business, after all.

    And at last that half of the country finally has some storytellers to call its own.

  • Repeat offender allegedly strikes again — this time beating up female doctor in hospital parking garage in unprovoked attack Mon, 08 Dec 2025 15:15:00 +0000


    A rampant repeat offender who reportedly was arrested a dozen times this year alone is accused of beating up a female doctor in a Chicago hospital parking garage elevator in an unprovoked attack.

    According to a Sunday CWB Chicago report, prosecutors said 39-year-old Sean Popps followed a 42-year-old cardiologist into the elevator in the parking garage at Northwestern Memorial Hospital’s Streeterville campus just after 1:30 p.m. Nov. 2 and began repeatedly punching her in the head as she stumbled backward and covered her face with her hands.

    Popps also was arrested seven times in 2024, again in almost every case mostly on or near the hospital grounds, the outlet said.

    A Chicago police report said the victim suffered multiple bruises, scrapes, and hematomas to her face, head, arm, and hand, the outlet reported.

    What's more, officials said she had no prior contact with Popps and that the attack was completely unprovoked, according to CWB Chicago.

    More from the outlet:

    A Northwestern security officer instantly recognized Popps from surveillance video, citing “approximately 30 plus prior incidents at the hospital where [Popps] had to be removed,” a detention petition stated. Another Northwestern officer reported having “incidents with [Popps] approximately two times a day over the last 19 months.”

    At the time of the attack, Popps was on pretrial release for allegedly trespassing at a Streeterville residential building in October and attempting to escape from the police station lockup afterward.

    CWB Chicago reported that police have arrested Popps a dozen times this year — and in almost every case for allegedly trespassing or damaging property on or near the hospital.

    Popps also was arrested seven times in 2024, again in almost every case mostly on or near the hospital grounds, the outlet said. He also was arrested at the hospital two times in 2020, twice in 2021, once in 2022, and once in 2023, CWB Chicago added.

    Judge Anthony Calabrese ordered Popps detained on a charge of aggravated battery in a public place, the outlet said. Jail records indicate his next court date is Dec. 30 and he has no bond.

  • ART? Beeple puts Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg heads on robot dogs that 'poop' $100K NFTs Mon, 08 Dec 2025 13:54:50 +0000


    A political artist says he is making a commentary on how social media platforms control what people see.

    Mike Winkelmann, who goes by the moniker Beeple, created an exhibit called "Regular Animals" that featured some of the world's most influential men as robotic dogs.

    'Zuckerberg and Elon, in particular, control a huge amount of how we see the world.'

    Visitors to Art Basel Miami Beach saw realistic masks of Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, Pablo Picasso, and Andy Warhol on robotic dogs that defecate photos. Winkelmann also added two look-alikes of himself into the mix.

    "The dogs are continuously taking pictures and ranking those pictures to find the most interesting ones," Winkelmann explained on his X page. "When it comes time to poop they are reimagined using AI according to each dog’s personality / worldview."

    According to Page Six, onlookers — who called the exhibit "freaky" and "creepy" — saw the Zuckerberg dog produce photos that look like the Metaverse, while Musk's were black and white.

    Bezos' robot reportedly did not make prints, but was included because Bezos is a person "who shapes how we see the world," Winkelmann explained. "So he needed to be in the piece."

    RELATED: Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos are racing to enclose Earth in an orbital computer factory

    The dogs — which are reminiscent of the film "Mars Attacks!" — are an attempt by Winkelmann to communicate that he parodied individuals who are controlling what the world sees.

    "It used to be that we saw the world interpreted through the eyes of artists, but now Mark Zuckerberg and Elon, in particular, control a huge amount of how we see the world," he told Page Six. "We see the world through their eyes because they control these very powerful algorithms that decide what we see. And so we wanted to kind of play with that idea."

    Beeple added, "You're increasingly seeing the world through the eyes of AI and robotics," noting that he thinks this will increasingly occur.

    The 44-year-old artist does not seem to be against the capitalistic nature of those he criticizes, however, as his robodog-produced photos are allegedly being sold to private collectors for up to $100,000 each. The photo owners will allow them to travel with the exhibit, though.

    This is not Winkelmann's first foray into politics. His video shorts, for example, have focused on issues relating to power and communication.

    RELATED: The price tag on Mark Zuckerberg's bid for 'superintelligence' will blow your mind. Will the product?

    On his website, the artist features pieces like "Transparent Machines," which is meant to portray "conflicting concepts of transparency and privacy."

    Other clips include a music video for "Manifest Destiny" by Run the Jewels, a radical political rap group, as well as commentary on the housing market collapse of 2009.

    Apart from the music video, the shorts compile vague imagery that serve as safe commentary representing widely popular viewpoints. This was reflected in an interview with Icon, in which Winkelmann said he is "not extreme" in his political views.

    "To me, it's very frustrating that we have such binary parties these days, because I’m very much in the middle."

    The artist also revealed he "voted for f**king [George W.] Bush twice, which seems dumb in retrospect," he noted.

    "I'm not sure [I'm] liberal, but it's just crazy town on that other side," he said of his politics.

  • Why the kids are not all right — and Boomers still pretend nothing’s wrong Mon, 08 Dec 2025 13:00:00 +0000


    Here’s a message Baby Boomers need to hear: The America you were born into no longer exists.

    A rising tide of young Americans are embracing socialism at a pace this country has never seen. Boomers often assume that it's about handouts. It isn't. Beneath the surface is a decades-long campaign so destructive to middle-class mobility that it threatens to push the nation toward civil conflict. The more you study it, the more coordinated it looks.

    A people dependent upon ‘gimme gimme’ socialism is an easily managed population. A demoralized middle class keeps the ruling class secure.

    In a way, it was.

    Short-term profit-maximizing globalists on Wall Street teamed up with the K Street lobbying blob to drown Americans in cheap Chinese goods while saddling them with student debt, consumer debt, and medical debt.

    Young people are being priced out of the American dream.

    My urgent message to Boomers — especially those who want to keep influence: The kids are not all right.

    The America your kids and grandkids know is not the America you knew. Most Boomers were born in the 1950s, when the country was booming — united by postwar optimism, American industrial strength, shared national institutions, Walter Cronkite on one television in every home, full-fat milkshakes, and Elvis shaking up the culture.

    Today, we live in a golden age of technological revolution. We are making remarkable advances in space travel, tech, and medicine — increasingly led by the private sector and unapologetic capitalists. But on the basics — housing, health, education — we’re failing the next generation.

    In 1955, the median homebuyer was in his late 20s. In 2025, it’s 56. A minimum-wage worker in the 1950s needed roughly seven years of pay to buy a modest home without a mortgage. Today, it’s around 27.

    In 1955, a student could pay college tuition by working a few hours a day at minimum wage. Today, that same student would need to work about six hours a day. If a kid wants Yale or any Ivy League school, he would have to work 26.4 hours a day — an impossible figure that illustrates how detached elite education has become from reality.

    Here’s a frightening divide: 93% of Boomers say political violence is never justified; 44% of Gen Z say it “sometimes” is.

    Ninety-nine percent of kids are not out for blood, but 100% of them face a massive relative disadvantage. The upward mobility Boomers took for granted has been hollowed out by globalist and left-wing policies sold as progress but experienced as decline.

    We spent trillions of American dollars on foreign wars, foreign infrastructure, and foreign elections. We borrowed recklessly. Now the dollar is frail. We allowed millions of illegal migrants to enter the country, fueling crime and pushing Americans out of jobs. Young households are buried in debt — not mortgage debt that builds equity, but consumer debt used to numb the anxiety left by a collapse in community and faith.

    Here’s the truth: The populist right and the socialist left agree on the diagnosis. Listen to the first half of Bernie Sanders’ interview with Joe Rogan in June. For an hour, Bernie describes America’s economic troubles. Most people, right or left, would nod along.

    Then comes the pivot: Socialism is the cure.

    This is the left’s great deceit. Progressives' proposed “solutions” hurt the very people they claim to help.

    Take restrictive zoning and rent regulations — blue-state staples designed to “create” affordable housing. In reality, they choke supply and drive rents higher. Or look at no-cash bail. The neighborhoods hit hardest by serially released offenders are the same minority communities progressives claim to champion. The examples pile up.

    So why do left-wing billionaires back these ideas? Simple: Socialism, communism, and their logical end point — fascism — are excellent for entrenched oligarchs. A people dependent upon “gimme gimme” socialism is an easily managed population. A demoralized middle class keeps the ruling class secure.

    There is another path.

    We must reverse the policies that got us here. Strengthen education outcomes, lower health care costs, rebuild domestic supply chains, expand American energy generation, and restore competence to the workforce.

    Boomers, if you don’t lead this shift, your influence will vanish before your next Social Security check arrives. Moderate Democrats already know the socialist tide is rising. They’re afraid to say it out loud.

    The Gen Z and Millennial voting bloc will dominate the 2028 election. They are demanding change. Moderates — in both parties — are being replaced by extremists.

    You have a choice: Allow yourselves to be absorbed into the socialist machine, or correct the mistakes of the last two decades, return power to citizens, and rebuild access to the American dream.
