The District of Columbia is suing the Trump administration after the President deployed the National Guard inside the boundaries of the city during a crackdown on crime. Despite the good results, the lawsuit accuses the Trump administration of committing an unconstitutional “involuntary military occupation” in the nation’s capitol. The lawsuit was announced by the DC attorney general, who appears to believe that the military should not involve themselves in law enforcement at the domestic level – even if and when it appears to be highly needed. Trump’s successful crackdown on DC crime has encouraged him to prepare for incursions in…

Jimmy Kimmel is at the root of another scandal after the Center for American Rights filed an FCC complaint against ABC’s show, ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ The complaint accused the host of ‘unlawful politicking’ during the show, which is an improper way to use public airwaves that are governed by the FCC. Hosts are not exactly permitted to amplify candidates that they donate to, without disclosing the contributions. The complaint requests that the FCC investigate Jimmy Kimmel’s show and suggested that late-night hosts in general are turning too political and using their platforms irresponsibly. It’s a conflict of interest. The complaint…

Sen.

Kennedy further stated on X: “If you eat some of the radioactive frozen shrimp that foreign countries are sending to America, you may end up looking like this picture from the movie, “Alien!.” Before this, it was Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy warning people about the radioactive shrimp imports during a cabinet meeting. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) warned…

Fired MSNBC host Joy Reid pushed a theory that President Donald Trump faked his assassination attempt when he was shot at during a 2024 rally in Butler, PA. Reid was talking to Katie Phang of MeidasTouch and said the following: “He’s got these magical doctors who claimed that he was shot in the ear, but his ear, I guess, grew back… He had a Duplo bandage on one minute, no bandage the next. We can’t get a medical record from this alleged assassination. He was supposed to be shot. We have nothing. We’ve got nothing. You can’t even ask.” Phang…

Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene issued a statement condemning the ongoing coverups regarding Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged client list. She stated on X: For decades, the rich and powerful protected Jeffrey Epstein while innocent women and children lived in silence and shame. That shame does NOT belong to the victims, it belongs to every politician, bureaucrat, and elite who turned a blind eye. The FBI, DOJ, CIA, and Epstein’s estate hold the truth. It’s time for full transparency and accountability. No more cover-ups. The American people deserve answers. We owe the victims justice, healing, and the truth they were denied for…

Victims and survivors of the disgraced and deceased billionaire Jeffrey Epstein say a pardon to co-conspirator and convict Ghislaine Maxwell would be a ‘slap in the face’ to them. At least six more women have spoken out about the situation with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, and they want the government to release as much information as possible to the public – then also to rule out any chance of a pardon for Maxwell. Republican Nancy Mace was seen walking out of a meeting with some of the survivors and had tears in her eyes, ignoring the media as she…

President Donald Trump, 79, has sparked speculations after appearing with makeup on his hand for at least the second time. It looked like the color of basic foundation, but it was lighter than his skin tone making it very easily noticeable. Photographers took shots and videos even appeared online, where Internet users speculated and came up with theories as to why Trump’s hand sometimes has a blotchy patch of skin-toned makeup. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt made a remark, saying Trump does a lot of handshaking – but she never addressed the makeup directly. She said to The Independent:…

Socialist mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani received an endorsement from Bill de Blasio. The former mayor said during an interview on MSNBC’s Morning Joe: “This guy’s an old soul. I have to say that chronological age is one thing, but I truly find him to be particularly perceptive, intelligent, open… Rarely have I met someone in public life who listens so well, and I think that’s crucial.” But people on the other side of politics believe a socialist candidate becoming mayor of NYC could lead to an exodus where successful people move out of the city, going to places that would…

Secretary of State Marco Rubio has revoked and denied visas for members of the Palestinian Authority (PA) and Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO). This includes President Mahmoud Abbas, who was scheduled to speak at the upcoming United Nations General Assembly on September 9. The justification behind this is that the State Department said the PA’s failed to repudiate terrorism, specifically referencing the October 7, 2023 massacre. That attack involved armed incursions from the Gaza Strip going towards Israel where Hamas and Palestinian groups targeted people during a Jewish holiday. For further justification, the officials criticized the PA’s appeals to the ICC…
