🚨 Who arrests the Secretary of State for election fraud?

Maine: 250 blank absentee ballots turned up in a Newburgh woman’s Amazon package.

Same day, Ellsworth reported exactly 250 ballots missing from its shipment.

Secretary of State Shenna Bellows ordered an investigation involving her office, the AG, State Police, FBI, and U.S. Postal Inspection Service.

Officials say the ballots couldn’t be used and replacements were sent.

Who’s accountable when the chain of custody collapses like this?

Operation TorNado is the largest interagency takedown of dark web drug vendors and buyers to date, resulting in 354 arrests worldwide, including 132 in the United States.

Through the coordinated effort, this FBI and our partners collectively seized 5.7 metric tons of illicit drugs, including deadly fentanyl, as well as $234 million in cryptocurrency and cash.

This FBI continues to accelerate our Cyber capabilities including through our newly established Cyber Branch, evolving how we operate to meet the dynamic threat landscape presented by the dark web.

The success of the Operation TorNado makes clear that criminals cannot hide behind technology or geography – no matter where you operate, justice will find you.

Thank you to our JCODE and Homeland Security Task Force partners who continue to do elite work defending the homeland.

GOP Rep. Chip Roy GOES OFF in fiery speech to Congress: "RIGHT NOW we should pass a ban on Congressional Stock Trading. Codify border security. WHERE were Republicans the last 18 months? We are watching our country get destroyed from within."

🚨JUST IN: Iranian women are training with assault rifles, rappelling down walls and riding zip lines at a newly opened military camp in Tehran’s Azadi Square as the regime prepares volunteers for a possible U.S. ground assault.

Footage from the site shows female volunteers handling rifles and running combat drills under the nationwide Janfada (“self-sacrifice”) campaign. Iranian authorities say the program is designed to build a civilian first line of defense, combining weapons training with emergency relief and logistical support.

This is not a one-off photo op. Similar training centers have opened across Tehran and the regime claims millions have signed up for the broader mobilization drive against the United States and Israel. Public drills with women in chadors carrying Kalashnikovs are meant to signal that ordinary Iranians are being prepared for urban warfare.

The images are circulating widely. The regime is openly arming and training civilians for a ground fight it keeps warning about.

🚨 WOW! They PUNISHED HER FOR TELLING THE TRUTH.

Lorena Biassotti wore a shirt that said "XX-XY" to a Clark County school board meeting. The board president PULLED HER OFF A NATIONAL COUNCIL and called it a policy violation.

Now she and trustee Lydia Dominguez are SUING.

A woman got punished for wearing a shirt with two chromosome pairs on it. That's where the left has taken our schools.

There are two sexes, and saying so isn't hate. It's BIOLOGY.

I'm done pretending. Say it out loud.

The Justice Department refuses to release one document on the search targeting Ilhan Omar, including the basic search warrant they handed to her! Federal court just ordered hearing for next week in @JudicialWatch court battle for details on Ilhan Omar's possible crimes.

[Mark R. Levin @marklevinshow]

Agree.

How about all the Arab countries?  They’re very wealthy. They’ve far more money than Israel. Will we be holding them to the same policy?  Same standard?

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Once you understand the incentive, the reason for the behavior becomes obvious: they are importing a left-voting bloc that depends on government handouts.

A prominent example of this in America is Ilhan Omar and her Somali voting bloc in Minnesota, an area which used to be primarily Nordic-German.

Importing voters is a CERTAIN path to a single-party supermajority and has ALREADY happened at the state level in California and New York. It also explains why those states have BANNED VOTER ID in order to accelerate a permanent socialist supermajority, destroying any semblance of democracy.

We stand on the precipice of disaster, an end to America.

Defeating Islamic Jihad requires more than a modern interpretation of the Qur’an

The common Western delusion is this: that Islamic terrorism can be neutralized with reinterpretation.

That if enough “moderate” scholars reframe the Qur’an, add footnotes, emphasize allegory, or appeal to abstract spirituality, jihadism will dissolve.

But this is a fatal misunderstanding of how jihad actually functions.

Jihad is not merely about obeying the Qur’an. It is about mirroring the life of Muhammad.

This is the core problem.

In Islam, Muhammad is not just a prophet. He is the “perfect man.” His life is considered the highest model. He determines the ceiling of morality.

Muhammad waged or ordered 86 battles. He personally ordered assassinations. He oversaw the execution of over 700 Jewish men in Banu Qurayza. He promised paradise to martyrs.

That is why attempts to “reform Islam” by merely editing the Qur’an are ultimately futile.

The problem is not just the text, it is the template. The Prophet’s life, actions, and commands form a living blueprint.

Until that blueprint is revoked, jihad will continue to regenerate, in new languages, with new targets, but with the same moral justification.

I am heartbroken by the tragic violence that occurred this morning at Black Hawk Middle School in Warrenton.

My thoughts and prayers are with the two students and teacher who were injured, their families, and the entire Warren County school community during this incredibly difficult time.

As a father, I cannot imagine the fear and uncertainty these families are experiencing. No child, parent, or educator should ever have to fear for their safety at school. I have been in contact with the governor's office and DPS is currently working with local officials on the investigation.

I want to express my sincere gratitude to the law enforcement officers, first responders, teachers, and school staff who responded to this frightening situation.

Our community is hurting today. I ask everyone to join me in praying for the recovery of those injured and for the students, families, and educators affected by this tragedy.

We stand together with the Warrenton community.

This NYT hack lives in Franklin TN. A white wealthy suburb of Nashville. He ran from the “diverse” migrant camps our cities have become, which he claims make us stronger. He holds onto his elitist viewpoints and poses as culturally virtuous despite his actions - and is surely voting to destroy Tennessee in every election. This is the cancer 👇

[toddstarnes @toddstarnes]

Majority Leader John Thune's decision to adjourn the Senate for the weekend is a flat-out "f-you" to Republican voters. And his decision not to go into recess is a giant "f-you" to President Trump.

Do you realize that President Trump is the only Republican president in modern American history who has not been allowed to make recess appointments?

Richard Nixon: 41
Gerald Ford: 8
Ronald Reagan: 232
George H.W. Bush: 78
George W. Bush: 171
Donald Trump: 0

Thune and Senate Republican leadership are colluding with Democrats to stop President Trump's agenda. That's the only plausible reason for the Majority Leader's behavior. The man's integrity has now been called into question.

🚨 THE WORLD MUST NOT IGNORE THE IRGC’S NUCLEAR DANGER.

The IRGC’s military power, Iran’s advancing nuclear programme, and the growing lack of international oversight are not merely regional concerns. They represent a serious challenge to global security and the international non-proliferation system.

The IAEA is raising urgent concerns: it cannot verify the status of Iran’s highly enriched uranium stockpile or inspect a declared enrichment facility in Isfahan. This is a dangerous verification gap the world cannot afford to ignore.

@POTUS @SecRubio @RafaelGrossi @IAEAorg @NATO @vonderleyen @UN

How long will the world wait before taking meaningful action?

The IRGC must be held accountable. Nuclear transparency, unrestricted IAEA verification, and an end to the regime’s destabilizing activities must become international priorities.

NO NUCLEAR BLACKMAIL. NO IMPUNITY. NO MORE SILENCE.

A scream.

June 9, 2012. A family ranch near Shiner, Texas.

A 23-year-old father hears his little girl scream.

He runs to her.

Behind a barn, he finds her.

She is 5 years old.

And a 47-year-old ranch hand is sexually assaulting her.

The father pulls the man off his daughter.

And he beats him with his fists.

Fists.
That is all he has.

The man dies.

Now stop and look at what this young father does next.

He does not run.
He does not hide anything.

He picks up the phone.
He calls 911 himself.

Authorities later released the recording.

On it, he asks for an ambulance.

And he says this:

"This guy was raping my daughter and I beat him up and I don't know what to do."

Read that one more time.

"I don't know what to do."

That is a 23-year-old father on the phone with 911, telling the truth, asking for help.

A medical examination confirmed the girl had been assaulted.

Then the case went to a Lavaca County grand jury.

In a lot of stories I tell you, this is where the system fails.
This is where a prosecutor goes on TV.
This is where a father ends up in a cell.

Not this time.

The grand jury declined to indict him.

District Attorney Heather McMinn explained why in plain terms.
Under Texas law, deadly force is justified to stop a sexual assault.

That is the law.
On the books.
Written for exactly this.

The father's name was never released.
It was withheld to protect his little girl.

So I can't tell you his name.

I am Japanese. I have read many stories like this one, and the part that stays with me is a young father who had just done the hardest thing a man can do, and then dialed 911 and told them everything.

No lawyer story.
No cover story.
Only the truth, on a recording, for anyone to hear.

Somewhere in Texas there is a man who will never be famous for this.

There is a little girl whose name the whole country was never told.

And there is a law that stood behind a father when he needed it.

The grand jury looked at all of it.

Texas sided with the father.

The Quran permits wife-beating, lying to non-Muslims, death for Christians and Jews, child rape, and violent conquest of unbelievers.

Swearing in on a document and ideology promoting these things is incompatible with the U.S. Constitution.
