An ICE agent scanned the wrong license plate, chased the wrong man, and ended up shooting Julio Sosa-Celis through his own front door. DHS’s first story: Sosa-Celis attacked agents with a broom and snow shovel. City surveillance video proved that was false — the whole struggle lasted about 12 seconds. DHS admitted its agents gave “untruthful” sworn testimony. Charges against Sosa-Celis were dropped with prejudice.

The agent, Christian Castro, is now charged with 4 counts of assault + falsely reporting a crime. He fled to Texas.

Greg Abbott is refusing to extradite him. Minnesota’s AG just sued Abbott to force it.

A Republican governor is actively shielding a federal agent from facing trial for shooting an innocent man and lying about it under oath.

Texas, you have a job to do in November. And then justice can finally be delivered.

Learning absolutely nothing since his motorcade tore up the reflecting pool, Trump rides in the Beast across the racetrack they built through Independence Avenue.

I am so tired of him treating our nation’s capital like his own personal fucking playground.

It was only five months ago that China averted disaster by rejecting contaminated beef from Argentina.

On March 19, 2026, Chinese authorities turned away a 22-ton shipment after detecting chloramphenicol.

With serial-lying psychopath Trump as president, God help us.

So Rudy Giuliani and his sordid sex life will now come to court. Rudy allegedly had Noelle Dunphy working off the books for an alleged 1 million dollar salary. According to Dunphy, she faced continuous sexual demands, was forced to perform sex acts against her will, forced to work in minimal clothing or even nude during video calls, and faced constant sexist, racist, and anti semitic remarks. All while not getting paid.

This trial will not be for the faint of heart. Sounds like Rudy may have created his own sex slave. America’s former mayor may be nothing but a pervert, and an Epstein client. However, it may shine a light on the depravity of those who surround Trump.

She’s a doctor. She suffered a heart attack.

But she’s Palestinian and wrote something on social media Apartheid Israel didn’t like ….

So now she’s being tortured & starved in the most well-documented network of rape dungeons on earth, operated by Israel.

And another one...

A Lutheran church leader and seminary student in Indiana is now facing a FELONY child-molesting charge involving a 2-MONTH-OLD BABY.

Josiah Junkin, 27, was booked into the Allen County Jail on August 20.
According to court records, Junkin admitted molesting the infant in 2024 while changing her diaper.

A man who spoke with Junkin told police that Junkin described FOUR separate incidents involving the baby.

Investigators also obtained photos of pages from Junkin’s journal from a sex-addiction recovery program, where he indicated that his sexual behavior put him at risk of arrest and that his fantasies included molestation and rape.

Junkin wasn’t just a random church attendee.

He was a Lutheran vicar, a student at Concordia Theological Seminary Fort Wayne, and had served at Faith Lutheran Church in La Crosse, Wisconsin, while also helping with a church plant in Viroqua.

Police say he declined an interview but told them he would turn himself in if they got a warrant.

They did.

He did.

But maybe “protect the children” should start with making damn sure the people being trained to lead churches are safe around an actual BABY!

Wonder why Hegseth fired senior staffers at Stars and Stripes? It’s because of reporting like this:

“Nearly six months after the U.S. Navy evacuated 1,300 family members from Bahrain at the start of the Iran war, officials are saying the evacuees cannot return for the foreseeable future and should find new homes elsewhere. The evacuation has left families in limbo and forced military officials to improvise solutions for support programs that were never designed to sustain a displacement lasting this long. Some evacuees say they have spent tens of thousands of dollars out of pocket for basic living expenses. Others are sleeping on the floors of temporary housing, while their cars and furniture are stranded in Bahrain or aboard ships unable to leave the region.”

Jewish surgeon Dr. Mark Perlmutter, who stars in the new documentary American Doctor, calls Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer “prostitutes for the Israeli lobby.”

He says srael’s influence over Washington is so extensive that “the United States Congress building is the most occupied territory by Israel.”

“It’s not the West Bank. It’s not Gaza. It’s the U.S. Congress.”

🚨BREAKING: An ICE/Border Patrol agent approached a U.S. citizen at a gas station, in Lake Worth, Florida, demanded his ID, and when the U.S. citizen asked why? …

The agent’s said, “Because you’re an immigrant.”

Except that is not how the Constitution works.

In the video, the U.S. citizen is standing at a gas station when an agent walks up and says, “Let me see your ID.”

The man asks a completely reasonable question, “Why?”

The agent responds, “Because you’re an immigrant.”

And before the man has even been identified, the agents grab his hands and puts him in handcuffs.

People standing around immediately start questioning what is happening…asking the agents how they can arrest someone when they haven’t even identified who he is…

But the agents ignore them and walk the man to their vehicle.

The Fourth Amendment protects people from unreasonable searches and seizures. The Supreme Court has held that roving Border Patrol agents need reasonable suspicion, based on specific circumstances, to stop someone and question them about immigration status. And apparent ethnicity, by itself, is not enough.

So, what was the actual legal basis for demanding this man show his ID?

Because if the answer is literally… “because you’re an immigrant,” that should piss off every American.

You should not have to prove you’re a U.S. citizen before the government decides it has the right to put you in handcuffs.

And this is just another reminder that constitutional rights don’t mean anything if federal agents can violate them, over and over again, with no accountability.

FYI when Larry Ellison donates to the IDF, a foreign army, he gets to deduct that from his US taxes. In other words, he stiffs the United States to fund a foreign nation's army. What do you call that?
