“Capital punishment presents moral questions that philosophers, theologians, and statesmen have grappled with for millennia,” wrote Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia in a 2015 concurring opinion, so the Constitution’s Framers “handled it the same way they handled many other controversial issues: they left it to the People to decide.” Advertisement The late conservative legal titan adduced the Fifth Amendment’s guarantee that no person shall be “deprived of life … without due process of law” to offer a proclamation so intuitive that any middle schooler ought to grasp it: “It is impossible to…

DHS Chief Markwayne Mullin went off on CBS’s Margaret during an appearance on CBS’s “Face the Nation” for attacking ICE agents who pursued and shot a criminal alien in New York City.

The United States might join Saudi attacks against the Yemen-based Houthi terrorist group following fresh fighting between the two sides, said President Donald Trump on Saturday.When asked about the possibility of U.S. forces joining in the Houthi–Saudi conflict following an attack on the King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, Trump told reporters at the White House: “We just found out about the recent attack. So we’ll make a decision. We move very quickly.”The president was also asked about whether the Houthi airport attack on Saturday would change his previously announced U.S. posture around not attacking Iran before the midterm elections…
Raiders rookie Fernando Mendoza, the 2026 No. 1 overall pick and former Heisman-winning Indiana quarterback, made his regular-season NFL debut Sunday in Las Vegas’ 45–17 loss to New England. Entering with just over six minutes left and the game out of reach, he completed 6 of 8 passes for 48 yards, opening with five straight completions but falling short on a fourth-down run near the Patriots’ goal line. Veteran Kirk Cousins had taken every Raiders offensive snap before the game, and Mendoza’s brief appearance did not signal a change in the team’s quarterback plans. Mendoza is expected to continue developing…

Actress Sydney Sweeney released another provocative advertisement Sunday, doubling down on her viral campaign for sports prediction platform Novig.In the new ad, Sweeney appears wearing only white underwear bearing the company’s logo, using two footballs to cover her chest. She opens with a joke about people tracking the color of her underwear, saying, “There are grown men making spreadsheets to bet on what color underwear I’m wearing.” The ad promotes Novig’s “Just Sports” campaign, which distinguishes the platform from competitors such as Kalshi and Polymarket by focusing exclusively on sports-related prediction markets.

DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin was on “Fox News Sunday” with host Shannon Bream to talk about ICE operations. Secretary Mullin explained that his agency is simply enforcing the laws that Congress made. Leftist sanctuary politicians have been critical of ICE operations, yet they ignore the victims, including law enforcement officers that have repeatedly been attacked. A news clip was shown of New York Governor Kathy Hochul criticizing ICE for shooting into a vehicle, even though an illegal alien was endangering the lives of the law enforcement officers who were pursuing him. “Let’s start with that case, Oscar Belgal, the shooting…

DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin appears on CNN to reject the false premise established by Narrative Engineer Jake Tapper. Unfortunately for the constantly furrowed brow host, the facts of the events do not align with the attempted narrative. The result ends with a conversation about the delicate sensibilities of the illegal alien with a long felony record. This one is worth watching. Good job by Secretary Mullin: [embedded content] .
Leftists zeroed in on U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers Saturday, boxing them into a parking lot in Salem, Oregon. The officers were conducting targeted enforcement operations in the area when the incident happened near a Walgreens in the lot on Lancaster Drive, the Post Millennial’s Katie Daviscourt reported. “Anti-ICE ‘rapid response’ networks mobilized to disrupt operations.

Sunday on MS NOW’s “Connect,” New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani said U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) should cease all operations in New York City. Mamdani said, “We are talking about a federal agency that shot at a moving vehicle in broad daylight while its agents were wearing construction vests, using long guns, and left New Yorkers in terror. That is, as you’ve said, the same experience that so many have had anywhere across this country whenever it comes to ICE.” He continued, “I think that what they have shown, time and again, is that they view the law…
Last week, military judge Lt. Col. Michael Schrama, ruled that the US government failed to establish that Mustafa al-Hawsawi, an alleged facilitator of the 9/11 attacks, gave voluntary confessions to the FBI in January 2007, after more than 3 years in CIA custody. Hawsawi allegedly provided money and logistical support to the alleged 9/11 hijackers. After he was captured in 2003, he was sent to a CIA black site where he was subjected to torture. Hawsawi was sodomized and raped through an unnecessary rectal exam that left him with permanent damage. Prosecutors asserted that the confessions made to the FBI…
As conflicts proliferate globally, the Russia-Ukraine war appears to serve as a lesson for the U.S. about economical and efficient warfare. A fireside chat about drone warfare hosted by the nonprofit, Razom for Ukraine and attended by the DCNF featured exhibitions regarding procurement, training, and even the use of shotguns as an anti-drone measure. “When you are talking about drones, you are implicitly talking about electronic warfare, detonation protocols, the use of AI, and procurement systems,” Razom for Ukraine’s advocacy director, Daniel Balson, told the DCNF. “These are all pieces of a much greater puzzle that when assembled effectively, allows…

In what can only be described as inevitable, according to a Campus Reform report, “A record-low share of Americans say a college education is ‘very important” We have reported extensively at The Gateway Pundit on the many documented bias incidents and biased professors on campus. Now, people are coming to the inevitable conclusion that college is a waste. “A recent Gallup poll found that 31% of U.S. adults now view college as “very important,” which is down from 70% in 2013 and below the 36% Gallup recorded when it first asked the question in 1978.” Costly schools that indoctrinate instead of educate…

On Thursday afternoon ICE agents in NYC shot and wounded a 28 year old man, who DHS called, “a criminal illegal alien from the Dominican Republic” as he attempted to flee, by reportedly accelerating his car at the agents, while a five year old boy was in the back seat. As expected, before knowing the facts the leftist media trashed ICE, as was the case on CNN’s NewsNight with Abby Phillip. Near the top of her show, Phillip did tell viewers, “DHS says that the man is a longtime criminal, here illegally with ties to gangs.” She then added, “And…

James Talarico We now know where James Talarico really was when he disappeared for two weeks from the campaign trail. His excuse was that he was suffering from the flu, but it appears he was suffering from a breakdown of sorts. Talarico just vanished out of thin air after a September 28 fundraiser with TDS-infected actor Robert DeNiro and allies of NYC Mayor Zohran Mandani in New York. He was also raising money from the gay Human Rights Campaign in New York. Talarico finally resurfaced on Friday, October 9, at the ACL music festival in Austin, Texas, the Gateway Pundit…
On Friday’s The Moment, MS NOW host Katy Tur gave a commentary complaining about President Donald Trump’s recent statement calling out Somali-linked violence in Minnesota. As she led a discussion about the President’s words, she and MS NOW contributor Peter Baker both acted completely oblivious to what the President was likely referring to.This comes as their network has blatantly ignored both Somali gang violence in the state as well as the arrest of a Somali American who was allegedly planning a mass killing at the Mall of America.Tur began by showing clip of Trump’s presidential announcement speech from 2015 in…
In the Maricao State Forest on the western end of Puerto Rico, a biologist encountered a flock of parrots in a panic. Raúl Correa of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service followed the chaotic squawks and found a young bird in the grips of a red-tailed boa (Boa constrictor). The snake had trapped a juvenile Puerto Rican parrot (Amazona vittata) on a bamboo stalk. Correa quickly sliced the bamboo, causing the snake to lose its grip and release the bird. USFWS observed the parrot after the incident to ensure it didn’t suffer any lingering injuries. Just a day later, the…

As of 2022, the US had nearly 1,000 gas-fired plants, which was already more than the next nine countries combined. Under returning president Donald Trump, the country’s embrace of high-carbon power has only accelerated, as energy developers abandon environmentally-friendly projects like off-shore wind farms in favor of more noxious gas- and coal-powered facilities. As if our rapidly warming world wasn’t being choked by enough smog, the AI boom is now adding even more fuel to…

As an able-bodied Christian, it’s actually quite easy for me to say that I’m opposed to assisted suicide. God made us in His image, giving us dignity and beauty. Why would I ever want to see that snuffed out early — or more alarmingly, why would I ever want the government to decide when to snuff us out early? But, again, I’m relatively healthy, a few extra pounds around the waist notwithstanding. Assisted suicide laws are something of an abstraction to me. There is nothing abstract about those laws for Jason J. McGuire, president and CEO of the Christian and…
Iran rejected Washington’s response to its seven-condition plan to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, calling it insufficient and saying key issues remain unclear. Security chief Mohsen Rezaei said Tehran would not reopen the waterway or negotiate until its conditions were met, and that Iran was no longer responding to the United States, though the two sides remained in contact through intermediaries including Qatar. The plan could restore normal maritime passage within seven days; reported conditions include lifting the naval blockade and oil sanctions and observing a ceasefire. Disagreement over the terms and sequence of steps is prolonging uncertainty around a…
