Virginia Senate President Pro Tempore Louise Lucas, a Democrat, was arrested by federal agents on Thursday on a litany of felony charges.
Fox News’ Bill Melugin posted about the arrest on X, writing, “BREAKING UPDATE: Virginia’s Democratic Senate President Pro Tempore Louise Lucas has been arrested by the Feds and is now in federal custody. She is charged w/ with Drug Trafficking, Money Laundering, Fraud, and Firearms Charge. DOJ press conference imminent.”
Foster noted, however, that the riots were undeniably “immigrant-dependent,” using at least the language and the symbols of Islamist politics and flying in some cases the Palestinian flag as well as the colors of North African countries, including Algeria and Morocco.
This foreign presence was no coincidence. Leftist organizers clearly intended to weaponize migrant resentment from the outset.
...and somehow we are supposed to believe they are the ones protecting democracy.
On tape they lay out a list of "redlines," and invoking the Insurrection Act against "peaceful" protesters is one of the most discussed… and as she lays it out, they shopped the idea around to governors who don't even have to sign anything, all a governor has to do is refuse federal troops and let the network do the rest...
And the very same morning the Washington Post runs a story about a small group of current and former Defense Department officials quietly advising governors, election officials and lawmakers in 10 states on how to prepare for the Trump administration "interfering" in the midterms, rehearsing what to do if a federal agent asks for access to ballots or machines...
The ubiquitous presence of the ‘Palestinian’ flag at riots from New York City to Milan isn’t an expression of solidarity: it’s a statement of genocidal intent for every country where it’s flown.
Its colors represent the historic Islamic caliphates which once ethnically cleansed the Middle East.
Every place in the world is just a few million Muslims away from becoming another Israel.
And Israel is a symbol of what the mobs intend to do to Europe and every nation they invade...
"The prime example that conservatives will impose on a conversation about Medicare for All will be ‘well, what do we do with the undocumented person who comes to this country and wants to get gender reassignment surgery on Medicare for All?'" he adds.
He goes on to accuse those opposing transgender treatments for illegal aliens of being guilty of "the original sin of racism," a common anti-American trope among far-left extremists.
In its investigation of the case, the Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division and Equal Employment Opportunity Commission found that Instacart gave preference to holders of temporary employment visas over American workers.
Specifically, the DOJ explained, Instacart "created additional burdens on U.S. workers to apply for job opportunities by requiring that applications be physically mailed for positions advertised as part of PERM recruitment."
It wanted broader control over health information, and newly released internal documents show former Surgeon General Vivek Murthy's office was actively strategizing how to make it happen. The documents Protect the Public's Trust obtained through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) date back to 2021, when the Biden administration was already pushing Facebook and other technology companies to remove content it labeled misinformation.
"May be worth emphasizing that you don’t just see this as a COVID-related issue (i.e., it’s health and medical misinformation, not just COVID-related misinformation). More broadly, it gets at the issue of how social media impacts people, especially young people."
Even the ones from wealthy families, who went to the best schools, who were dealt every good card.
Always the same trap.
I don't think it's stupidity.
I think it's a mechanism.
And a mechanism can be taken apart, piece by piece.
A. The observation: everything the state touches becomes unaffordable...
B. The mechanism: why it's systematic. When the state subsidizes demand without freeing supply, prices rise. Every time...
C. Suffering demands a culprit...
D. Whoever tells the story picks the villain...
E. One lens, a thousand causes...
F. The perfect inversion. Here's the irony. Capitalism is the force that drove down the price of almost everything it touched. The state is the force that blew up the price of almost everything it captured. And young people blame the first for the crimes of the second...
Bukele threatens that El Salvador will eradicate the Haitian gangs if they hurt the kidnapped men:
“To the gang leaders and gang members holding our four compatriots hostage in Haiti:
...We have a single objective: to bring our four compatriots back home alive, without any harm.
However, I want you, the gang leaders, to understand one thing very clearly: today's attack is nothing compared to what is coming if we do not get all four hostages back alive.
And do not take our word for empty threats.
We have already finished with the gangs in El Salvador, and we can finish with you too.
We still have time to avoid this.
Return our four compatriots to us alive, without any harm, and everything will go back to how it was before the kidnapping.
In either case, Omar could well lose her naturalized citizenship. But those are apparently not even legal niceties to Obama — a former constitutional law professor, for heaven’s sake — since he doesn’t even consider them worth mentioning.
Even worse is the hectoring-lecturing tone he takes about an administration targeting political opponents — when his own White House spent eight years doing exactly that.
