An Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer suffered a severe laceration to his mouth and burns to his face after a criminal illegal alien assaulted him with a metal coffee cup during an enforcement operation in Houston, Texas, Monday. The laceration resulted in 13 stitches on and above the officer’s lip.

ICE agents have arrested more than 1,500 criminal aliens, gang members, foreign fugitives and immigration offenders in the Houston area over a ten-day period.

Walter Leonel Perez Rodriguez, a violent criminal illegal alien from El Salvador, allegedly attacked the Houston ICE officer while he was being apprehended.

Rodriguez, according to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), had previously been convicted of numerous charges, including sexual assault of a child under 17 –years-old, multiple DUIs, child fondling, and illegally re-entering the United States.

It has been a rough couple of weeks for those claiming that Trump is abandoning Taiwan. The administration continues to show its commitment to the self-governed island. Recent examples include President Trump’s “Taiwan is Taiwan” remark, his warning regarding the “consequences” of attempting to take Taiwan, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth raising concerns about China’s actions around the island to China’s Minister of National Defense, and meetings between Taiwanese and U.S. officials at the APEC summit.

US Attorney General Pam Bondi on Tuesday said during the Arctic Frost investigation, investigators found that Special Counsel Jack Smith seized President Trump’s government-issued phone.

Jack Smith also subpoenaed President Trump’s personal records.

Full statement from Pam Bondi:

During the Arctic Frost Investigation, we found that Special Counsel seized President Trump’s government-issued phone.

This means the Biden Administration turned over President Trump’s phone to Special Counsel—an UNPRECEDENTED action.

In addition, Special Counsel subpoenaed all of President Trump’s PERSONAL phone records.

We can never again allow this kind of government weaponization in America.

I submitted these new documents to our partners on Capitol Hill. I commend our team at the FBI for working diligently to expose this.

The statement sought by CBS News and provided by the Department of Homeland Security completely undermined the report on a Chicago ICE arrest that ran on the Evening News. But the network ran the report nonetheless, burying the DHS’s statement at the end of the report.

Here is that report in its entirety, as aired on the CBS Evening News on Wednesday, November 5th, 2025:

MAURICE DuBOIS: There is outrage in Chicago tonight following a federal immigration arrest at a day care center.

JOHN DICKERSON: While witnesses say it was a chaotic scene, officials say the day care was not the primary target. Ash-har Quraishi has the story.

ASH-HAR QURAISHI: This video captured the moment ICE agents dragged a pre-K teacher out of a day care center on Chicago’s North Side. She can be seen pleading with the agents as she is pushed up against a waiting sedan. At one point, she shouts in Spanish, “I have papers.”

MIKE QUIGLEY: ICE agents followed a teacher into the facility without a warrant and abducted her in front of her students. This woman is a trusted, loved member of her community. With a work permit.

QURAISHI: Officials identified the woman as Diana Galeano, a Colombian national in the country since 2023 and seeking asylum. Children, teachers, and parents inside of the time of the arrest said they were traumatized by what they saw.

After 36 days of Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer’s (D-NY) historic federal government shutdown, Democrats are quietly scrambling to find a way out.

It comes as divisions within the Democrat ranks and a growing backlash from unpaid workers are complicating any move to end the standoff.

The shutdown, which entered record-breaking territory Tuesday night, has now surpassed the 2019 mark to become the longest in U.S. history.

Despite public frustration and mounting economic fallout, Democrats have continued to block Republican efforts to reopen the government.

Inside the Senate, Democratic Party leaders huddled behind closed doors for nearly three hours.

During the meeting, Democrats were debating possible off-ramps, including a vote on Obamacare subsidies and attaching spending bills to an extended continuing resolution (CR) that could run into December or January.

College alleges the public school system wants it to abandon its ‘religiously based hiring practices’

Moody Bible Institute, an evangelical Protestant college in Illinois, filed a lawsuit Tuesday alleging the Chicago public school system is discriminating against its student teachers because of its Christian mission.

“Chicago desperately needs more teachers to fill hundreds of vacancies, but public school administrators are putting personal agendas ahead of the needs of families,” Alliance Defending Freedom attorney Jeremiah Galus stated in a news release. The conservative legal organization is representing the college.

The school district declined to comment on the lawsuit when contacted Wednesday.

“Chicago Public Schools (CPS) remains committed to ensuring the safety and well-being of its students. In accordance with District policy, CPS does not comment on matters involving pending litigation,” spokesperson Evan Moore stated in an email to The College Fix.

He abandoned the vehicle and set fire to it before trying to escape, Brechkoff said.

“No one has died, and we are hoping that the injured will recover,” he said, according to GB News.

COVID Is Beginning to Surge Globally. Here’s What We Know

Limited COVID surveillance data are hampering vaccination and health strategies, researchers say

SARS-CoV-2 infections have been rising in the past month — global cases increased by more than 19,000 last month compared with the previous month, according to data posted on the World Health Organization (WHO) COVID-19 dashboard.

But the real number of infections is much higher than that, researchers say, because countries are less focused on collecting data on the infection now than they were during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Surveillance is happening but it’s at a much lower level than it used to be. We don’t have a complete picture of virus circulation of the variants that are out there,” says Maria Van Kerkhove, interim director of the department of epidemic and pandemic management at the WHO in Geneva, Switzerland. “I think there’s a collective amnesia right now about COVID-19,” she adds.

A Democrat congressman has been accused of distorting the facts about the arrest of an illegal alien at a daycare facility in Chicago.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has accused Democrat Rep. Mike Quigley (D-IL) of lying about the circumstances of the arrest.

According to Breitbart, Quigley falsely claimed that ICE agents arrested an innocent “preschool teacher.”

However, Quigley failed to mention that the “teacher” is a foreign national who had entered the country illegally.

Quigley provoked outrage from leftists on social media by claiming that ICE stormed into the school and “abducted a preschool teacher without a warrant – in front of children.”

  • University of Chicago Professor Eman Abdelhadi faces charges of aggravated battery against a police officer during her participation in protests at an ICE detention facility.
  • Abdelhadi was arrested in October and then released on bail. She is scheduled back in court later this month.
  • She has a history of contentious statements about her university and political figures, including telling the late Vice President Dick Cheney to ‘rest in hell.’

University of Chicago Professor Eman Abdelhadi is scheduled to be back in court Nov. 21 after she was charged by the state of Illinois with aggravated battery against a police officer in October.

Her arrest and charges stem from the sociology professor’s involvement in weeks-long protests outside an ICE detention facility in Broadview, Illinois. She is charged with two felony counts of aggravated battery allegedly against a police officer, as well as two misdemeanor counts of obstructing the peace.

UMD student government passes resolution to ban IDF members from speaking on campus– www.thecollegefix.com

The student government at the University of Maryland passed a resolution Wednesday that seeks to ban Israel Defense Forces members from speaking on campus.

“The resolution came after a pro-Israel student group hosted IDF soldiers, which protesters disrupted by calling them ‘baby killers’ and comparing the IDF to the KKK,” the Jewish Journal reported.

According to the Diamondback student newspaper, the resolution — which passed unanimously — urges administrators “to condemn the hosting of the soldiers and change university policy so that student organizations and academic departments will not be able to host speakers who have been found, or are being actively investigated for genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity or systematic human rights violations.”

The resolution is non-binding, meaning it only represents the opinions of the student government and is not enforcable.

The crux of the controversy centers on an event held Oct. 21 by Students Supporting Israel featuring three guest speakers, Israel Defense Forces soldiers, who shared “their experiences fighting for Israel before and after October 7, and their advice for us college students on standing up against antisemitism and anti-Zionism every day,” according to the group.

The event prompted a protest, during which four students, including two student journalists, were detained by police for an hour, the Diamondback reported; according to campus police: “Four people were in the hallway causing a disruption. This disruption included screaming, holding signs and recording their actions.”

Trump Is Not To Blame For Democrats Electing Violent Extremists– thefederalist.com

While liberal America is justifiably triumphant about Tuesday night’s election results, a lot of professionals are quietly worried about extremism infecting the party. Certainly, electing a mayor of New York who’s an unfortunate hellbroth of communism, Islamism, and “defund the police,” is not someone you want defining your party nationally.

And then there’s the problem of Jay Jones, the Attorney General-elect of Virginia, who won handily despite being caught sending text messages wishing death on a Republican colleagues’ kids — and this wasn’t some flippant message. After he did this, he called up his colleague on the phone to further argue his point about needing to watch kids die in order to make political progress. He also appears to have deceived the state and faked community service hours as part of a punishment for being caught driving 116 mph.

Despite this, no notable national Democrat called for Jones to withdraw from the race. Virginia gubernatorial candidate Abigail Spanberger refused withdraw her endorsement of Jones, and Virginia Senator and former vice-presidential candidate Tim Kaine also continued to support him.

There’s a familiar air of disillusionment the morning following any election; some cheer, others curse, and many retreat into silence.

But what happened this week wasn’t shocking, and anybody who thought otherwise wasn’t paying attention to the map, the math, or the mood of the country.

Two deep-blue states and one purple state leaned where they always lean. All three painted in predictable hues — Virginia, New Jersey, and New York City, along with California tightening its grip on redistricting — while Texas passed every constitutional amendment in the methodical order listed on the docket.

There was nothing revolutionary or accidental; it was just yet another reminder that America rarely turns on a dime.

That’s the thing about republics: they bend slowly. They don’t change course because of one election night’s chatter, which is precisely what many Americans have forgotten.

Archaeologists have uncovered evidence of a ritual-based site that may have been built long before the rise of Maya rulers

Finding the oldest Maya site ever documented was only the beginning of archaeologist Takeshi Inomata’s discoveries. After locating the Aguada Fénix site buried in the jungle of southern Mexico in 2017, Inomata and his team began digging downward and uncovered a massive cross-shaped pit.

Inside the pit were pigments of blue azurite to the north, green malachite to the east and yellow ochre to the south, as well as marine shells interspersed with axe-shaped clay offerings to the west, says Inomata, a researcher at the University of Arizona. Later the team realized that the cross-shaped pit was aligned with giant canals that extended toward the four cardinal directions.

The cross and the canals, Inomata says, form a cosmogram—a monumental map of the universe etched into the landscape. Cosmograms were used by Mesoamerican civilizations to represent their understanding and cultural relationship with the cosmos. Inomata says that his and his colleagues’ findings, published on Wednesday in Science Advances, challenge long-held assumptions about the social order of the ancient Maya and the reasons behind their architectural achievements.

An American man and his teenage son died last month after they were swarmed by wasps while ziplining at an adventure camp in Laos and stung many dozens of times, a hospital official said Thursday.

Dan Owen, the director of an international school in neighboring Vietnam, and his son Cooper were attacked by the insects on Oct. 15 at the Green Jungle Park, as they were descending from a tree at the end of the zip line.

The camp is located outside the city of Luang Prabang, a popular tourist site in the Southeast Asian nation that was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1995.

The two were taken to a local clinic and then transported to Luang Prabang Provincial Hospital where they arrived in critical condition, said Jorvue Yianouchongteng, the emergency room physician who received them.

“The son was unconscious and passed away after half an hour, while the father was conscious and passed away about three hours later,” he told The Associated Press. “We tried our best to save them but we couldn’t.”

Britain calls it safety. It is censorship | Social Media– www.aljazeera.com

The United Kingdom’s Online Safety Act was meant to keep children safe. Instead, it is keeping the public uninformed. Within days of the law taking effect in late July 2025, X (formerly Twitter) started hiding videos of Israel’s atrocities in Gaza from UK timelines behind content warnings and age barriers. A law sold as safeguarding has become one of the most effective censorship tools Britain has ever built. What is unfolding is no accident. It is the result of legislation that weaponises child-protection rhetoric to normalise censorship, identity verification and online surveillance.

The roots of Britain’s online censorship crisis go back almost a decade, to MindGeek, now rebranded as Aylo, the scandal-ridden company behind Pornhub. This tax-dodging, exploitative porn empire worked closely with the UK government to develop an age-verification system called AgeID, a plan that would have effectively handed Aylo a monopoly over legal adult content by making smaller competitors pay or perish. Public backlash killed AgeID in 2019, but the idea survived. Once one democracy entertained the notion that access to online content should be gated by identity checks, the precedent was set. The Digital Economy Act 2017 laid the groundwork, and the Online Safety Act 2023 made it law. Today, several European Union states, including France and Germany, are exploring similar legislation, each cloaked in the same rhetoric of “protecting children”. This is not conspiracy; it is the natural convergence of corporate capture and state control, wrapped in the moral language of child safety.

BBC upholds complaint against Martine Croxall over ‘pregnant people’ change | BBC– www.theguardian.com

The BBC has upheld a complaint against the newsreader Martine Croxall after she changed the term “pregnant people” to “women” and raised her eyebrows during a news channel broadcast in the summer.

The corporation said its executive complaints unit (ECU) had upheld 20 complaints about the broadcast. It said Croxall’s facial expression “laid it open to the interpretation that it indicated a particular viewpoint in the controversies currently surrounding trans identity”.

Under the BBC’s impartiality rules, news presenters are not permitted to express views on controversial topics. Croxall and the editorial team involved have been spoken to about the item.

Croxall received praise and criticism over the incident when when a clip of it went viral online. JK Rowling, who has made her gender critical beliefs clear, said Croxall was her “new favourite BBC presenter”.

Croxall had been introducing a news story about research on the groups most at risk during heatwaves. It was based on a study and news release by the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.

“Malcolm Mistry, who was involved in the research, says that the aged, pregnant people … women … and those with pre-existing health conditions need to take precautions,” she said.

The “No Kings” movement started last June with a series of protests opposing what the organizers say are the corrupt and authoritarian policies of President Trump. The most recent event occurred on October 18, when supporters claimed that more than seven million people participated in over 2,700 events across all 50 states.

Like any president, Trump has made some mistakes, but calling him a “king” is absurd. Kings are not elected, and Trump ran for office three times, winning twice.

In fact, when it comes to tyranny, the fingers should really be pointed at the leftists in the “No Kings” crowd.

Let’s start with Trump’s predecessor, Joe Biden, and his cronies. As Victor Davis Hanson points out, in 2021, Biden’s DOJ and FBI raided former President Trump’s home. They found only 102 classified documents among approximately 14,000 seized, yet still indicted him. However, there was no SWAT raid on Biden’s multiple repositories of illegally removed classified documents.

LEESBURG, VIRGINIA — When Winsome Earle-Sears’s campaign bus caught fire on a Virginia highway days before the election, it offered a fitting metaphor for a gubernatorial bid that never found its footing and ultimately went up in flames.

Earle-Sears, the Republican lieutenant governor who once made history as the first Black woman elected in Virginia, lost to Democrat Abigail Spanberger by nearly fifteen points on Tuesday. Earle-Sears’s blowout even stunned veteran operatives accustomed to Virginia’s blue tilt. What began as an attempt to extend Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s (R-VA) conservative blueprint ended in disarray, undone by weak fundraising, muddled messaging, and a candidate critics say never fully engaged the grind of a modern statewide campaign.

Virginia Republican strategist Brian Kirwin said Earle-Sears faced “the wind in her face the entire time,” noting that off-year elections typically punish the party in the White House. But he said her problems went far beyond the political environment. “Her campaign was pretty haphazard,” he said. “She ran a social-issues campaign on transgenders and bathrooms when everybody in the world is screaming [about the] economy.”

Democrats in Congress have fought against every bill that would ensure only U.S. citizens vote in U.S. elections. They voted against the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act in the House, and they’ve chloroformed it in the Senate. They’ve sued to stop President Donald Trump’s executive order requiring documentary proof of citizenship when registering to vote.

Why would Democrats and left-wing activists fight so hard and spend so much money trying to kill a basic election safeguard that the vast majority of Americans support?

They want noncitizens to vote in U.S. elections. And, as always, they’re willing to game the system to get what they want.
