One of the NFL’s top executives said that he’s so “embarrassed” by America that he stays holed up in his hotel room when he travels abroad, a prime example of the league’s slide into left-wing politics. In recent remarks during a panel discussion at the Stimson Center, a foreign affairs think tank in Washington, D.C., NFL Executive Vice President of Football Operations Troy Vincent discussed the league and the 2028 Olympics, which are set to be held in Los Angeles, and the “global reputation” of America, admitting that he “stays in his hotel” while overseas.

A dangerous precedent may have been set in the Emerald City after a Mexican national on trial for four alleged felonies against federal agents was acquitted of all charges. Efforts across the country to restore national sovereignty through mass deportations have been met with the typical wailing and gnashing of teeth common among leftists, but also dramatic upticks in violence against federal immigration officers. Amid attempts to paint an anti-U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (D) activist as a victim after she was fatally shot while driving her vehicle at a federal official, a Seattle jury acquitted an illegal alien who’d…
A Biden-appointed judge ruled Friday that immigration agents in Minneapolis may not arrest or deploy tear gas against so-called “peaceful protesters.” The 80-page ruling by U.S. District Judge Katherine Menendez specifically targeted the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers who’ve been deployed to Minneapolis for “Operation Metro Surge.” Said officers are barred from “using pepper-spray or similar nonlethal munitions and crowd dispersal tools against persons who are engaging in peaceful and unobstructive protest activity,” Menendez ruled. Menendez, who was appointed by then-President Joe Biden in 2021, also decreed that said officers may not stop vehicles that are following them…
Illustration by Tag Hartman-Simkins / Futurism. Source: Jen Golbeck / SOPA Images / LightRocket via Getty Images It’s no secret that the US military budget is the largest in the world, and indeed one of the largest in the history of human civilization. Over the summer, for example, Donald Trump proposed a $1.01 trillion national defense budget to pay for things like hypersonic missiles, warships, and his laughable Golden Dome. Another dubious purchase by the Defense Department? A strange little gun rumored to cause Havana syndrome. First, a little background. “Havana syndrome” is a term given to the widely disputed…
President Donald Trump has just presented his «Great Healthcare Plan,» a proposal aimed at transforming the healthcare system by replacing federal subsidies to insurance companies with direct payments to citizens, allowing them to purchase their own medical coverage and drastically reduce costs. The announcement comes amid the expiration of enhanced subsidies under the Affordable Care Act (ACA, or Obamacare), which has led to average premium increases of more than 100% for millions of enrollees in 2026.

Already a poster child for the foreign ingrates who have overrun Minneapolis, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) continues to make the case for why she has no place in Congress, let alone America, a country she obviously despises. On Friday, the Somalia-born “Squad” member was joined by another foreign interloper, Rep. Pramila Jayapal (R-Wash.) and other Democrats at a hearing in the Twin Cities, the scene of a tense standoff over the federal government’s ability to enforce federal immigration policy by deporting criminal illegal aliens. At one point during an angry diatribe about Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), the hijab-clad lawmaker…
A House committee’s decision to advance an ethics probe on South Carolina Rep. Nancy Mace (R) came swiftly on the heels of her own failed effort to uncover alleged marriage fraud by a peer. The death of an anti-U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement activist, and the subsequent violent protests, may have been enough for leftists to steer away from rampant fraud uncovered in Minnesota, but the investigations continued all the same. Included in the effort, Mace had found her own effort to subpoena Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D) immigration records squashed by the House Oversight Committee, only for an active…
House Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said Thursday he plans to push for restoring federal funding cut by the Department of Government Efficiency, known as DOGE, and indicated he would support increasing funding beyond previous levels for some programs. Schumer made the remarks when asked whether he would work to replenish funding for the Department of Housing and Urban Development during a forum hosted by the Center for American Progress. His comments come as Congress continues negotiations over federal spending levels for fiscal year 2026 and as debate continues over spending reductions advanced by Republicans through DOGE.

A federal judge has ordered the Los Angeles Police Department to immediately stop using certain non-lethal projectile weapons for crowd control, ruling that officers violated a long-standing court injunction during protests tied to immigration enforcement actions in 2025. U.S. District Judge Consuelo B. Marshall issued the ruling Thursday, finding that the LAPD improperly deployed 40mm and 37mm projectile launchers against demonstrators who did not pose an immediate threat of physical harm. The decision came from the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California and holds the city of Los Angeles in civil contempt. Trump’s Sovereign Wealth Fund: What…

(Money Metals News Service) On a recent episode of the Money Metals podcast, host Mike Maharrey sat down with veteran market technician J. Michael Oliver, commonly referred to as simply Michael Oliver, to unpack why he believes silver is breaking out of a half-century “box” and entering a radically new price regime.Oliver, who entered the futures business in April 1975 and later developed his proprietary Momentum Structural Analysis (MSA), argued that the current move in monetary metals isn’t a normal bull market.

KYIV, Ukraine (AP) – A Ukrainian delegation arrived in the United States for talks Saturday on a U.S.-led diplomatic push to end the nearly 4-year-old war as Russian attacks again took aim at Ukraine’s power grid, cutting electricity and heating in freezing temperatures.

Scientists are still learning how spending prolonged periods of time in the microgravity of space can affect astronauts’ health. The environment has been shown to accelerate bone density loss and the destruction of blood cells, put pressure on the eyes that can cause vision problems, andcause many more health conditions — an especially pertinent topic as NASA is in the process of evacuating an astronaut from the International Space Station due to an unspecified health crisis. The human brain, which is suspended in clear cerebrospinal fluid inside the skull, can also be impacted by the effects of microgravity — in…
The Chief Constable of West Midlands Police has been able to walk away with his full pension intact amid a roaring scandal encompassing the banning of Israeli football fans from a British city, a blur of A.I. hallucinations, alleged Islamic extremism, and threats of anti-Semitic violence.

Both Friday editions of ABC’s World News Tonight and CBS Evening News highlighted a Minnesota family that got caught in the chaos that ensued on Wednesday after an ICE officer shot a Venezuelan illegal immigrant in the leg after he fled a traffic stop. However, both shows omitted the detail that the man fled only to eventually join in with two other men—one of whom had a snow shovel—and attack the pursuing agent. ABC reporter Matt Rivers was highlighting the case of the Jackson family, who were returning home from their oldest son’s basketball game when he declared, “On Wednesday,…

You know the third episode of “30 Rock,” where Tina Fey becomes disturbed by her singledom after almost choking to death on her frozen dinner, alone in her apartment? That same fear is motivating a hot new app trending in China. Available for a one-time payment of the equivalent of $1.15 in US dollars, the app — with the evocative name of “Are You Dead?” — is basically a large countdown timer that you have to reset regularly, and which alerts an emergency contact if you let the time run out.

During an interview with Bloomberg on Friday, House Minority Whip Rep. Katherine Clark (D-MA) responded to a question on shutting down the government over ICE by stating that “We have had one approach around these government budgets, and that is negotiate and imploring our Republican colleagues to come to the table and negotiate with us. And we saw what happened back in the Fall” with the shutdown over Affordable Care Act credits and she hopes Republicans won’t choose to shut things down. Clark said, “We have had one approach around these government budgets, and that is negotiate and imploring our…
On Friday’s “CNN News Central,” House Democratic Caucus Chair Rep.

Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) for heavy campaign spending on luxury travel amid potential 2026 Senate ambitions against Sen. John Cornyn, noting, “She’s not spending an awful lot of time in Texas.” Additionally, Smith highlighted her absence from her home state, sarcastically adding she’s “living high on the hog” with designer brands and expensive hotel stays.

In an absolutely massive announcement on X, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz announced that the Trump Administration has discovered massive amounts of Medicaid fraud all over America, with blue states illegally allowing illegal aliens to access the program, and so the Trump Administration is yanking funding. In fact, he revealed that hundreds of millions of dollars of funding are being yanked away from California alone. As background, the Trump Administration has worked tirelessly to try and boot illegal aliens off of the welfare programs that they have long been infamous for accessing, and as part…
President Trump is done playing games with the sanctuary jurisdictions that continue to reject his orders and instead protect illegal aliens from federal immigration authorities. As such, he is not only stripping all sanctuary jurisdictions of all their funding starting on February 1, but is considering invoking the Insurrection Act to crack down on Minneapolis. For reference, Minneapolis has effectively become ground zero for anti-ICE sentiment in America, as officers have been targeted in protests and attacks as it floods into the city to try to deal with the massive problem of not just illegal aliens protected by the state,…
Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) defended controversial Democrat Rep. Stacey Plaskett against a censure resolution for texting Jeffrey Epstein during a 2019 congressional hearing, downplaying it as “taking a phone call from her constituent, Jeffrey Epstein, in the middle of a hearing.” Continuing, he minimized the event, claiming “And of course, I don’t think there’s any rule here against taking phone calls in a hearing,” framing the GOP effort as a bid for headlines. When the clip went viral on social media, users were enraged. Starting his absurd statement, Raskin said, “Well, they want to give them another headline, which is…
A viral post on social media platform X has revealed that the issue of daycare fraud connected with Somali immigrants is not isolated to the state of Minnesota, but is far more widespread across the country than originally thought. Conservative commentator Benny Johnson stated in his post on the topic that there are a total of 5,000 childcare facilities located in Washington state. He then stated that 500 of these centers are run by Somalis and have no physical addresses, no posted hours of operation, and feature subsidy participation.

Ohio Rep. Josh Williams (R-Sylvania Twp.), introduced a new bill in the Ohio Statehouse, going on to say that a group of “citizen journalists” and viral social media videos have discovered fraud within the Buckeye State’s daycare system that the government has failed to uncover.

Totally making a fool of herself, Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) announced her Senate candidacy in an emotional speech where she faked tears to underline her point. In her comments, she claimed she “never intended” to run but felt compelled by poll trends showing strong support in both primary and general elections. Continuing her absurd allegations, she insisted the current moment is “life or death,” “all or nothing,” and a crossroads to protect progress on Social Security, Medicare, voting rights, and personal freedoms from being “wiped away.” Starting her absurd comments, Crockett said, “I’ll hit the ground running, because I’m already…
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt pulled absolutely no punches when sounding off on a reporter’s characterization of what Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has done as “reckless”, a comment with which Leavitt took a great degree of issue and which she used to skewer the reporter as a left-wing hack. For reference, the reporter involved was Niall Stanage, a White House columnist for The Hill. Stanage’s question was provoked by Trump Administration officials like Department of Homeland Security Kristi Noem insisting that the immigration agencies have done “everything correctly”. Stanage tried to attack that characterization by pointing to the…

Blake Neff, a producer for The Charlie Kirk Show, said escalating resistance to federal immigration enforcement represents what he described as the most significant test facing the Trump administration, warning that efforts to obstruct Immigration and Customs Enforcement could effectively nullify federal immigration law if left unchecked. In comments addressing recent confrontations involving ICE, Neff focused on actions and rhetoric from progressive prosecutors and state officials, singling out Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner for what he described as explicit threats against federal officers. “Larry Krasner, notorious, Soros backed prosecutor in Philly, notoriously, loves to not prosecute all manner of crimes,…
Political commentator Scott Jennings sharply criticized Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, State Rep. Bobby Champion, and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey following a violent confrontation involving an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent during a federal operation in Minneapolis, accusing state and local leaders of fueling hostility toward federal law enforcement.

Trump’s Sovereign…
Sen. Marsha Blackburn said government fraud and improper payments are draining hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars annually, citing Government Accountability Office estimates that she said reveal a systemic failure across federal programs nationwide. In remarks focused on federal spending oversight, Blackburn said the scope of fraud extends far beyond any single state and represents a nationwide problem affecting virtually every major entitlement program. “We know that this issue goes far from Minnesota and into every corner of the country and the Government Accountability Office and this report, I think, is significant,” Blackburn said. Trump’s Sovereign Wealth Fund: What Could…
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt criticized Democrat governors and mayors for what she described as deliberate obstruction of cooperation between state, local, and federal law enforcement, arguing that political opposition to President Donald Trump is undermining public safety in multiple states. In remarks addressing ongoing clashes surrounding immigration enforcement, Leavitt said decisions about invoking extraordinary federal authority ultimately rest with the President, but emphasized that existing law provides options if violence and obstruction continue. “That’s only a question, frankly, Reagan, the President, can answer,” Leavitt said. “But the Insurrection Act is a tool at the President’s disposal. As you…
