Outside Groups Say Trump Administration Has Disrupted $177 Billion in Federal Grants › American Greatness– amgreatness.com
News Source
EXCERPT:
The Trump administration has canceled, frozen or delayed as much as $177 billion in federal grants since President Donald Trump began his second term, according to an analysis released Wednesday by two outside groups tracking the administration’s spending decisions.
The Lost Funds database, created by the States United Democracy Center and Grant Witness, says funding disruptions have reached all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Health, nutrition, environmental programs and disaster relief account for some of the largest categories identified by the groups.
California, Texas, New York, Illinois and North Carolina had the largest amounts of funding affected, according to the tracker. Individual grants cited by researchers include maternal health funding in Michigan, education research in Mississippi and assistance for minority farmers in Iowa.
The groups said the $177 billion figure amounts to nearly 10 percent of federal discretionary spending, although the database includes grants that were delayed or frozen in addition to those that were terminated.
The findings come as Trump has pursued an aggressive effort to reshape federal spending and redirect government priorities. Some funding decisions have faced legal challenges, and courts have blocked certain grant cancellations. Other lawsuits remain pending.
EXCLUSIVE: DHS Cracks Down On Immigration Attorneys Who File ‘Meritless’ Asylum Claims– dailycaller.com
News Source
EXCERPT:
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is cracking down on immigration attorneys who file what the agency calls “meritless” and fraudulent asylum claims, according to a letter obtained exclusively by the Daily Caller.
A letter from DHS General Counsel James Percival to the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) argues that the immigration court system is facing a massive backlog, with nearly 3.5 million cases and 2.3 million asylum claims pending as of July 2026.
DHS attributes much of the backlog to what it calls “meritless asylum claims,” arguing that such claims can delay deportation and allow migrants to remain in the U.S. while their cases are pending.
The letter says claims involving generalized gang violence, domestic violence, economic hardship, and other country conditions often fail to meet the legal standard for asylum.
We have been abundantly clear—if immigration attorneys commit fraud for their clients, the attorneys will be fined. This week, we issued a fine notice to Suraj Raj Singh totaling over $470,000. This attorney filed 118 fraudulent documents. Before President Trump came along,…

Federal Judge Refers Philadelphia’s Soros DA Larry Krasner to DOJ Over Possible Criminal Conduct › American Greatness– amgreatness.com
News Source
EXCERPT:
A federal judge has referred Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner and one of his top deputies to federal prosecutors for investigation, citing evidence of possible perjury, obstruction of justice, false statements and conspiracy stemming from the handling of a convicted murderer’s appeal.
U.S. District Judge Paul S. Diamond on Tuesday also disqualified Krasner and Assistant District Attorney Matthew Stiegler, chief of the office’s Conviction Integrity Unit, from further involvement in the case of Dennis Johnson. Johnson was convicted of second-degree murder in 2009 in connection with the 2007 killing of Kenyatta Smith.
Diamond’s 40-page memorandum followed hearings examining how Krasner’s office handled Johnson’s effort to overturn his conviction. The judge said testimony indicated Krasner and Stiegler may have pressured prosecutors to present a false account to the court while attempting to protect the district attorney’s office and Stiegler.
“I have thus reluctantly concluded that Philadelphia’s highest law enforcement official and one of his top assistants may have violated the law,” Diamond wrote.
According to court documents, prosecutors within Krasner’s office recommended referring the Johnson matter to the Pennsylvania Attorney General’s Office because of potential conflicts involving Stiegler. Krasner rejected that approach, saying he needed to remain involved to “protect the office.” Diamond also said Krasner warned employees of “consequences” if they alerted the court to the conflict.
No criminal charges have been filed against Krasner or Stiegler. The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania has not said whether it will pursue an investigation.

DOJ Goes After Berkeley For Discrimination Vs. White Applicants– thefederalist.com

EXCERPT:
On Sept. 9, federal investigators concluded that the University of California, Berkeley School of Law broke the law. Not some obscure regulation buried in an agency handbook. Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the same statute Berkeley’s own professors teach first-year students. The joint finding from the Justice Department and the Department of Education says Berkeley Law discriminated against Asian and white applicants in the entering classes of 2024 and 2025, after the Supreme Court restricted race-conscious admissions.
In 2022, Berkeley Dean Erwin Chemerinsky told the New Yorker that colleges would have to “find ways to achieve diversity that can’t be documented as violating the Constitution.” That’s a law school dean telling colleagues to dodge a ruling without leaving fingerprints.
A quick refresher on constitutional law: In 2023 in Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard, the Supreme Court ruled that Harvard’s and the University of North Carolina’s race-conscious admissions programs violated the Equal Protection Clause, and by extension Title VI, which bars any federally funded institution from discriminating on the ground of race, color, or national origin. The court left room for schools to weigh how race shaped an applicant’s personal story, but not to use race itself, or a stand-in for it, as a plus factor. Berkeley’s own numbers show which side of that line it landed on.
BREAKING: Board votes to close Kennedy Center after federal judge bars Trump’s name from facade | The Post Millennial– thepostmillennial.com

EXCERPT:
The Kennedy Center is verging on bankruptcy.
The board of the Kennedy Center voted on Tuesday to close the storied performing arts space due to their “dire financial position.” The vote came as a federal judge said that President Donald Trump’s name could not be added to the building. Trump pressed for the move in order to aid him in fundraising for the structure.
A recent ceiling collapse emphasized the concerns Trump noted about the building when he initially said, upon coming into office, that the Kennedy Center should be closed so renovations could be done. The plan was to add Trump’s name to the building, calling it the Trump Kennedy Center, and to close for two years to make upgrades to the buidling facade and structure.
The board has voted repeatedly to close the building only to have their decisions held up in the courts. This Tuesday vote marks the third time the board has said that the building must close. Former board member Rep. Joyce Beatty of Ohio brought the issue before a federal court, saying that the board needed more due diligence before shutting down.
The legal fights against the board of the Kennedy Center and against Trump and his proposed rennovations is part of the incessant battle of Democrats against any Trump initiative. They were angry that a Joel Shapiro statue was removed from the grounds of the Kennedy Center and returned to his foundation. They have been in and out of court to try to stop the construction of ballroom at the White House that is already underway.

EXCERPT:
California Governor Gavin Newsom has revealed that he will not run for president in 2028 if fellow Californian former Vice President Kamala Harris decides to run. He had been widely rumored to be interested in the position.
Speaking with CNN’s Jake Tapper, Newsom, who is one of a few Democrats being floated to run for the presidency, said of Harris, “I don’t know if she runs, but we’ll see.” He later added, “I wouldn’t run if she ran.”
Tapper asked, “If she runs, you will not?”
“Of course not,” Newsom replied. “Why would I? I wouldn’t do that to her … I wouldn’t waste everyone’s time. Who needs that?”
“First of all, electorally, it’s a gift from God for everybody else. They can enjoy the hell out of it. Mutually assured destruction. It serves no greater good,” Newsom said.
Tapper shot back, “She had a shot and you’ve never run and she’s run twice.” Harris ran in 2020 seeking the Democrat Party’s nomination for president. During her brief stint in the primaries, she gained some 3% of the vote. She ran again in 2024 but only when her boss, President Joe Biden, was forced out of the race due to apparent age-related mental decline and endorsed her in his stead.
“Yeah, I mean that’d be the approach to the campaign certainly,” Newsom said. “That’d be the case you’d make. A pretty good one actually. That’s objectively true.”

Vance announced Monday that the government is barring 870,000 people from getting future federal loans because they are suspected of defrauding the government during the pandemic. They accounted for nearly $50 billion in bogus small business loans, officials said. Letters will be mailed out starting this week notifying them they’re banned. “If you screwed the American taxpayer, the federal government is now going to say you’re cut off,” Mr. Vance said at an appearance in Kansas City, flanked by Attorney General Todd Blanche, FBI Director Kash Patel and Small Business Administration Administrator Kelly Loeffler…. Mr. Vance, who was tapped to lead President Trump’s task force on combating fraud, also called upon Democrats to join the fraud fight. “Congressional Democrats have been so captured by far-left advocacy groups that they can’t even participate in something as common sense as protecting the American taxpayer’s money,” he said. “We can’t allow it to be normalized that the American people get stolen from by fraudsters.” (Washington Times).

People who get paid to work with words should probably know how to use them.
But a Wisconsin journalist reporting on a near-fatal crash involving a Republican candidate for governor proved just how bad things can go wrong when her social media posts about the incident turned into a story that caught more eyes than the crash itself probably would have — and roasted her in the process.
And she has herself and her profession to blame.
First the facts: U.S. Rep. Tom Tiffany, a conservative Republican, a GOP congressman since 2020 since 2020 and now his party’s nominee for governor, was aboard a private plane that was forced to make an emergency landing about 9 p.m. Saturday in Lake Wausau, about 100 miles east of Green Bay, according to CBS News.
Tiffany and the pilot were the only two on board the plane. They managed to swim to a shallow point in the lake, where they were able to stand until a boat picked them up, the network reported.
Both men needed stitches from cuts incurred during the crash, but were otherwise fine, according to CBS.
So far so good: A story that could have been a tragedy — a plane crash and a double drowning — turned out to have a happy ending.

RIO DE JANEIRO — Brazil’s Supreme Court is in the throes of an unprecedented crisis. Sessions are being canceled. Justices are overruling one another’s decisions. And suspicions of graft, political bias and police interference loom over several of its members ahead of the country’s presidential election in October.
The justices at the heart of the crisis are perceived as being at opposing ends of Brazil’s polarized political spectrum. Next month, incumbent Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva is expected to face off with Sen. Flávio Bolsonaro, the son of former President Jair Bolsonaro, in what is likely to be a close election, as it was four years ago.
The court is set to meet Tuesday to discuss whether one of the justices should be investigated for corruption.

The chaos gripping the court stems from the collapse of Banco Master, a mid-sized bank worth up to $16 billion in assets, which was shut down last November after a sprawling investigation into a fraud scheme involving billions of reais.

Sometimes things just don’t make sense. Especially when someone like Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) is concerned.
She’s been a controversial figure in the past, especially when it came to her “Somalia first” statements that she’s made – something that doesn’t reflect well on someone of her stature. But it’s her most recent case surrounding a mysterious increase in funds that I feel needs a bit more attention – especially considering the result.
See, there was a financial disclosure with Omar’s personal records a while back, indicating that her and her husband’s assets were between $6 million and $30 million. That’s a far cry from the salary of $174,000 that she makes with her current position.
Many believed that she was taking advantage of local Minnesota businesses with this – myself included. After all, a huge increase in cash like that doesn’t just appear magically. So, yes, I fully supported the investigation into the case, because we deserve answers.
But apparently the Office of Congressional Conduct felt that there was no wrongdoing. Last month, it noted that any misconduct charges against Omar were cleared. “From day one, we have been clear: the Congresswoman is not a millionaire.” This is in spite of the statistics that previously told us otherwise.
And the reason for the mistake? Get this. Her husband’s accountant reportedly listed gross business values for firms such as Rose Lake Capital without subtracting liabilities.

EXCERPT:
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and New York Attorney General Letitia James are suing President Donald Trump’s administration over its effort to expand federal authority to deny visas and green cards to immigrants who are likely to rely on taxpayer-funded public benefits.
The lawsuit targets the Trump administration’s expansion of the “public charge” rule, which allows immigration officials to consider whether an applicant is likely to depend on government assistance when deciding whether to approve a visa or permanent residency application.
The administration is seeking to broaden the benefits considered under the rule, with the changes scheduled to take effect September 18.
Mamdani argued Monday that the policy would intimidate immigrants into abandoning government benefits.
“If you are a citizen, or an individual seeking humanitarian relief like asylum, these changes will not affect you,” Mamdani said during a press conference.
“The new public charge rule not only sweeps aside more than a century of established law, it is intentionally vague as a means of creating uncertainty and fear to isolate immigrant New Yorkers.
