Sen. Hawley Revives ‘PELOSI Act’ to Crack Down on Congressional - Stock Trading Sarah Arnold
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) is again turning up the heat on Washington corruption by reintroducing the “PELOSI Act,” a bold effort to ban members of Congress and their spouses from trading individual stocks. - Sarah Arnold 
Named after former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), whose financial dealings have long raised questions, the bill directly targets the insider privilege, allowing lawmakers to profit off the markets while shaping policy.
- This week, Hawley reintroduced the Preventing Elected Leaders from Owning Securities and Investments (PELOSI) Act, which would ban members of Congress from trading or holding individual stocks.
- The senator argued that lawmakers should prioritize serving their constituents, not profiting from stock trading using insider information...
'Alarming': Democrats in leftist state now want to eliminate citizens' input to government * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh
'Alarming': Democrats in leftist state now want to eliminate citizens' input to government * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh:
"What makes this particularly alarming is the inclusion of the 'safety clause' — legislative language that declares the bill is necessary for the immediate preservation of public peace, health, or safety. The practical effect? Voters are prohibited from filing a referendum to challenge the law at the ballot box. It's an ironic — and telling — twist that a bill restricting petition rights also blocks any citizen-led challenge of its own passage."
EDITORIAL: Colorado welcomes foreign criminals | Editorials | denvergazette.com
Welcome to Colorado — the most desirable state for foreign criminals, drug dealers and human traffickers. - The Gazette editorial board
No one should be the least surprised that federal law enforcement found more than 100 suspected illegal aliens during the raid of a non-licensed Colorado Springs nightclub in the wee hours of Sunday. Equally unsurprising is that federal agents found deadly drugs, illegal guns and evidence of prostitution and human trafficking.
The detainees were not neighboring Mexicans here to frame houses and harvest crops.
The detainees were not neighboring Mexicans here to frame houses and harvest crops.

Law enforcers believe the detainees include members of the foreign prison gangs Tren de Aragua and MS-13.

Watch: Trump Refuses to Let ABC Interviewer Get Away with Shameless Lie About Deportation Law
Watch: Trump Refuses to Let ABC Interviewer Get Away with Shameless Lie About Deportation Law:
In other words, if the Constitution requires complete deference to the courts in the matter of legal interpretation, as 98 percent of Americans probably believe, then, according to Jefferson, our system of government qualifies as “suicidal.”
Thus, one can do little more than plead with readers. Share the facts about deportation law with your deceived family and friends. Show them Jefferson’s comments on a tyrannical judiciary.
There really is no other way to combat the lies of Moran and others of his ilk.

Trump's New Way of Charging Illegal Aliens for Crossing the Border Is Absolutely Genius
What do Democrats always claim when someone says it's illegal to cross the border without going through a port of entry?
The answer is that they always claim it's a civil offense, not a criminal offense, despite there being felonies associated with it.
- How do you fix that without getting Congress to change the laws, which we all know will never happen?
- You get creative.
The Justice Department has begun the first criminal prosecutions of migrants who breach a newly expanded military zone at the southern border that is patrolled by U.S. troops, threatening people with additional penalties for crossing the U.S.-Mexico border illegally.
At least 28 migrants were charged Monday with crossing into the 170-mile long “National Defense Area,” a 60-foot strip of land that stretches across the bottom of New Mexico and has effectively been turned into part of a U.S. military installation...
