Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has been enjoying himself lately, taking jabs at Elon Musk and Tesla while rallying with disgruntled leftist supporters.

She ruled that agencies do not possess limitless power to push a President’s agenda, nor can they indefinitely obstruct statutes passed by previous Congresses. The Trump administration argued that it retained the authority to pause funding to redirect resources toward more appropriate projects. They contended that the Rhode Island judge…

Neighbors quickly noticed changes at the Anthony residence, including a brand-new car with a fresh paper tag parked in the driveway.…

A federal watchdog has dug up nearly $400 million in fraudulent unemployment payments since 2020. Most of this fraud has been traced back to California, New York, and Massachusetts, states led by Democrats. From the total, $305 million came from these three states, as reported by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). What’s even more alarming is that California alone was responsible for a whopping 68% of unemployment benefits given to parolees with questionable records during the Biden administration. This revelation was highlighted by Ned Ryun, who pointed out the motivations behind these fraudulent acts in Democrat-run states. “305 million…

U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis of Maryland had initially ordered the government to bring Abrego Garcia back from a notorious prison in El Salvador. Abrego Garcia, who entered the U.S. illegally around 2011, had been living in Maryland with his wife, a U.S. citizen. He has three children, all U.S. citizens too, and his attorneys claim he…
