Tom Homan arrived in Minneapolis at President Trump’s request on January 29, 2026, promising practical action amid deadly clashes and saying “a lot of progress” had been made while coordinating with state leaders to restore order. Border Czar Tom Homan stepped into Minneapolis late Monday, answering a direct request from President Trump to help calm volatile streets after the deaths of two protesters during clashes with federal agents. He quickly met with Gov. Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison to sort out access and operations. The mission landed squarely on enforcement and coordination rather than ceremony. Homan told reporters…

A grand jury has indicted former CNN host Don Lemon over his role in a leftist-led storming of a Minnesota church, and federal agents arrested him Friday morning. The indictment marks a rare move toward holding a prominent media figure to account for alleged participation in violent political activity, and federal authorities carried out an early morning arrest. “At my direction, early this morning federal agents arrested Don Lemon, Trahern […]” appears in reporting tied to the enforcement action, and that line remains part of the public record. This is not simply a newsroom controversy; it has moved into the…

The Justice Department, led by Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon, has moved to intervene in a lawsuit claiming UCLA’s medical school used race as a factor in selecting students, and the action has renewed debate over race-conscious admissions policies. The Department of Justice filed to intervene this week in a case accusing the University of California, Los Angeles medical school of using race to pick applicants. The suit centers on allegations that race played a deciding role in admissions, a charge that strikes at the heart of merit-based selection. Republican voices see the intervention as a necessary…

October 7 changed the conversation by stripping away excuse and obfuscation, leaving clear moral stakes and immediate human consequences that demand honest response and steady resolve. October 7 offers something rare: moral clarity without instruction, faith without propaganda, and testimony without shame. The images and stories that followed were not polished talking points. They were raw proof that some events force a country to choose what it stands for in plain terms. The day exposed how fast nuance can become cover for indecision. People who had long debated strategy or posture suddenly found themselves facing real victims who needed help…

Democrats are using immigration as a central political strategy, arguing that large-scale inflows reshape the electorate and sustain their national power, and that debate now centers on policy, rule of law, and the consequences for communities and sovereignty. For years the debate over immigration has been framed as a humanitarian issue, but the political reality is more blunt and practical. “Democrats have recognized that their very survival as a national political party rests upon importing millions of foreigners into the United States.” That claim fuels a broader argument about incentives and party strategy rather than a simple debate about compassion.…

This piece examines legal consequences tied to a new penalty scheme and how those penalties could affect people, law enforcement, and everyday Second Amendment considerations. The language in question is concise and severe: “Violators could face up to 12 months in prison and a restriction on ownership or possession of any and all firearms for three years.” That single line carries a lot of practical weight for anyone who handles firearms, whether intentionally or by mistake. It is worth looking at the real-world effects of such penalties beyond the rhetoric. A 12-month potential jail term signals that this is treated…

A person was shot and is in critical condition following a shooting that involved Border Patrol near the U.S.-Mexico border in Arizona on Tuesday. The incident immediately sharpened debates over border security, law enforcement conduct, and the need for clear facts. Officials confirmed the shooting occurred near the U.S.-Mexico border in Arizona on Tuesday and that one person was left in critical condition after the encounter with Border Patrol. Local law enforcement is involved and federal authorities typically review any use-of-force incidents involving Border Patrol agents. At this point, details are limited and investigators say determining what happened will take…

A legal fight over a state rule on organization names has turned into a First Amendment contest, raising questions about political speech, government power, and how far Illinois can go in policing what groups may call themselves. “A group of Democrats opposed to gender ideology has filed a First Amendment challenge to an Illinois law that prohibits the organization from using “Democrat” in its incorporated title witho” The short, odd sentence above is part of the record and it shows how narrowly the dispute began: a named term in an organization’s title bumped up against a state rule. At its…

Sen. Angus King has refused to back a six-bill funding package because it includes Department of Homeland Security funding, raising the real possibility of a partial government shutdown by Friday as Senate Democrats stand united against the measure. Sen. Angus King (I-Maine) announced on CBS’s Face the Nation that he cannot support the current six-bill funding package because it contains DHS funding. His opposition, combined with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer’s declaration that Senate Democrats will not back the legislation, increases the chance of a partial shutdown before the weekend. The House is not scheduled to return to Washington until…
