EXCERPT:

The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) are done hiding the ball.

Appearing on Fox News Sunday, DSA co-chair Megan Romer was handed a list of the group’s positions and asked for a simple true-or-false answer on each one. She confirmed nearly all of them without qualification. The few she hedged, she hedged only on timing.

BREAM: So we’re going to put up on the screen a few of the things that are part of your platform, and I want to ask you, just give me sort of a true or false on these. Abolish the Senate?

ROMER: True.

BREAM: Okay. Replace the presidency and Supreme Court as we now know them?

ROMER: Yep.

BREAM: Abolish ICE?

ROMER: Absolutely.

BREAM: Abolish borders and give amnesty to anyone currently in the U.S. illegally?

ROMER: As a long-term plan, yep.

BREAM: Defund the Pentagon?

ROMER: Absolutely.

BREAM: Abolish prisons, at least in large part?

ROMER: Yeah, again, as part of a long-term program, yeah.

BREAM: Okay, so no prisons. Government or public ownership of most large corporations?

ROMER: Yeah, absolutely. 

That was not a Republican’s description of the DSA platform. It came straight from the group’s co-chair.

The Trump administration announced efforts to root out U.S. citizenship naturalization fraud. The White House intends on conducting the “largest denaturalization effort ever.” The White House posted on X, “When you commit fraud during the naturalization process, you forfeit the right to keep your U.S. citizenship…”

The strategy is to use fraudulent information or incomplete information that was used in the immigration process to secure legal status as grounds for deportation….

From the Justice Department: The Department of Justice announced today that it filed denaturalization actions in various U.S. district courts against 10 individuals accused of serious offenses—including sexual abuse of a child, health care and wire fraud, immigration fraud, and conspiracy to possess with the intent to distribute cocaine. The complaints were filed over the last 30 days. Under the Immigration and Nationality Act, a naturalized U.S. citizen’s citizenship may be revoked, and certificate of naturalization canceled, if the naturalization was illegally procured or procured by concealment of a material fact or by willful misrepresentation (Justice).

Haitians Are Self-Deporting At Extreme Rates www.louderwithcrowder.com

Can anyone name one positive benefit for Americans since the tens of thousands of Haitians moved to Springfield, Ohio? No? I didn’t think so. This is why there should be nothing but celebrations over reports of 80% of them self-deporting, as this can only bring good things to the country.

Per Spectrum News:

Haitian families are leaving Ohio over the uncertainty surrounding their immigration status.

A U.S. The Supreme Court decision last month allows the Trump administration to end their Temporary Protected Status (TPS).

While it is great that SCOTUS sided on the “right side of history,” the amount of damage caused by this should not be taken lightly. Officials, both local and all the way to federal, turned a blind eye and slapped Springfield residents in the face, solely because they deemed a group of foreign nationals less fortunate. You cannot return after betrayal like this, and it is astonishing how the media is painting this as if the deportations are a bad thing for Americans.

In one of Ohio’s largest populations of Haitian immigrants in Springfield, community leaders are concerned about another challenge that could create — more vacant homes.

Houses boarded up and abandoned are a reminder of a problem Springfield has spent years trying to fix. But with uncertainty around immigration status and Haitian families moving out because of it, city leaders worry the city could face another wave of empty houses.

Gov. Greg Abbott calls for Texas Rangers to conduct investigation into deadly ICE shooting www.yahoo.com

On Wednesday, a week after Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was killed in a shooting involving a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent, the Texas Department of Public Safety Texas Rangers agreed to conduct an investigation into the incident.

According to a release from DPS, the Texas Rangers, who did not have access to the initial scene, will conduct an investigation alongside the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Department of Homeland Security.

Salgado Araujo was shot and killed the morning of July 7 after he was pursued by federal agents driving unmarked vehicles while he was taking his crew to their latest job site.

“As previously stated, for decades, it has been the standard, established practice of the Texas Rangers to investigate OIS when requested by an involved law enforcement agency – local, state or federal – or a prosecuting entity,” the statement said.

One person has been detained after a woman was injured in a shooting near a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in Aurora, Colorado, police said.

A police spokesperson told Fox News the incident happened Thursday night and left the woman with injuries that were not life-threatening. A man was detained following the shooting, which did not happen inside the facility, they added.

Andrea Loya, the executive director of Casa de Paz — a local nonprofit that helps those released from the ICE detention facility reunite with their loved ones — told The Denver Post the shooting happened after the conclusion of a weekly protest outside the building.

The Justice Department and FBI have a new communist financier in their crosshairs for alleged financial crimes: James “Fergie” Cox Chambers Jr., the estranged bad-boy heir to the Cox cable empire.

On Friday, Spanish police detained Chambers on the luxury island of Ibiza, in response to an international arrest warrant, according to sources. Chambers is allegedly wanted for money laundering and providing support to Hamas, following years of financing anti-Israel and anti-West organizations and protests. The transnational network he helped fund and support is kicking in to cast him as a victim of the Trump administration’s “fascism,” while critics are cheering the arrest as long overdue.

A spokesman for Spain’s Balearic Islands police branch, which includes Ibiza in its jurisdiction, told Fox News Digital that a U.S. citizen was arrested on charges tied to an international arrest warrant Friday under an international arrest warrant seeking his extradition to the United States. The spokesman did not confirm the identity of the citizen, but sources told Fox News Digital that the individual is Chambers.

An illegal immigrant in Biddeford, Maine has been shot dead by an U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent after he allegedly tried to run over the agent with his car.

Senator Angus King (I-Maine) said that Homeland Security  officials told him the 26-year old man had been ordered to leave the country and that he had “weaponized the vehicle.”

King and Rep. Chellie Pingree (D-Maine) told reporters they’ve learned little from federal agencies about the shooting, and said they believe the ICE agents were not equipped with body cameras.

An eye witness who drove by the scene as it was enfolding, corroborated what DHS told Sen. King.

The man told the Portland Press Herald that the driver was told multiple times to stop by an ICE agent, but instead of stopping, he put the car in drive and drove toward the officer.

“As I was approaching, you could see flashing blue lights,” the witness said. “The ICE agent was yelling and drew his weapon,” he continued. “And he kept yelling and yelling and warning the person driving—which is when the car was put into drive and was trying to hit the ICE officer—and he fired probably four shots at him.”

The race-hustling mainstream media are trying to stoke public outrage over the death of a Mexican national who was hit by a truck while running onto a highway in order to flee Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.

As a reminder, these same media stooges repeatedly ignore or downplay the countless deaths of Americans who are raped, beaten, or killed by illegal aliens.

In the latest example of the Darwin Awards, a Mexican migrant died on Tuesday while fleeing ICE officers he had encountered at a Wawa convenience store in St. Augustine, Florida.

“While running away, the 28-year-old man crossed SR-16 and was hit by a semi-truck,” according to WTLV-TV in Jacksonville. “The truck driver stopped immediately and attempted to render aid, but the man died at the scene.”

On Tuesday, the DHS was heavily criticized after telling ICE agents to halt most vehicle and traffic stops — at least for the time being.

The order came in response to two ICE-involved shootings over the past week.

We covered the full story here:

BREAKING: ICE Agents Ordered to CEASE Vehicle Stops After Recent Shootings

As you might expect, this move proved incredibly controversial.

After all, vehicle stops are one of the most effective strategies that ICE uses to detain illegal aliens.

So, when word reached President Trump, he immediately overturned it!

Kaitlyn Tracey, 33, was arrested Monday in connection with a July 3 confrontation at the Point Pleasant Beach boardwalk, where police say she approached a group of teenagers while recording them on her cellphone.

According to police, Tracey became upset over the group’s “patriotic-colored” sweatpants, including clothing displaying the words “Trump” and “ICE.” Authorities allege she slapped one juvenile female once in the body and once in the face with an open hand. The teenager was not injured, and surveillance cameras captured the interaction.

Tracey was charged with endangering the welfare of a child, simple assault, harassment, and obstruction before being lodged in the Ocean County Jail, which confirmed to Fox News that Tracey was handed over to ICE.

Tracey is a Canadian citizen who entered the United States in 2024 using a passport, according to court documents obtained by NJ.com. After her arrest, she was transferred into ICE custody and taken to the Delaney Hall immigration detention facility in Newark. Her husband, Matthew Geroni, posted to social media confirming Tracey had been taken into ICE custody, and the agency’s detainee locator also lists Tracey as being held at the facility.

An illegal immigrant from India has been sentenced to just four years and eight months in prison after pleading guilty to causing a fiery Southern California crash that killed three people and injured several others.

Jashanpreet Singh, 21, pleaded guilty Tuesday to three felony counts of vehicular manslaughter with gross negligence in connection with the October 2025 collision on Interstate 10 in San Bernardino County.

Deadly Crash Followed CDL Approval

According to investigators, Singh was driving a semitruck when he plowed into slow-moving traffic without applying the brakes.

Dashcam footage of the crash reportedly showed Singh never attempting to brake before slamming into the line of vehicles.

Three people were killed, and several others suffered injuries.

Two more people died in recent days encountering immigration authorities, which predictably means a renewed enthusiastic push by Democrats and the dying media to halt deportations altogether. The only acceptable message from the Trump administration is: Those who caused this mess don’t get a say in how to clean it up.

It’s not a good sign that Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin on Tuesday reportedly instructed law enforcement to “cease all non-urgent vehicle stops” in relation to immigration enforcement. Any action that carries the whiff of a suggestion that the problem isn’t the nearly 20 million illegal aliens in this country — allowed in by Democrats — but rather the attempt to remove them is precisely the wrong signal.

At this stage, there is no “non-urgent” deportation, whether the subject is driving, walking, swimming, or floating in a hot air balloon. If he or she is in view of an ICE agent, there should be no pause in taking the individual into custody and processing his quick removal from the U.S. Anything else is weakness. Mullin is signaling weakness, and it reflects directly on President Trump.

A new report from Human Rights Watch and the American Civil Liberties Union details the degrading and cruel conditions in ICE’s massive detention center known as Camp East Montana in El Paso.

“Human Rights Watch and the ACLU found that people detained at Camp East Montana endured conditions of confinement that amounted to enforced disappearance, cruel, degrading and inhuman treatment, excessive use of force including one extrajudicial killing, life-threatening medical neglect, barriers to legal representation, and coercive third-country removals,” the authors reported. “Together, these abuses violate fundamental protections under U.S. and international human rights law.”

Detainees detailed to researchers that were being beaten by guards, consistent denial of medical care and being prevented from contacting family members and lawyers. They also described overcrowding, unsanitary bathrooms, the lack of basic soap and hand sanitizers and living quarters that regularly flooded with dirty water and dust.

Bennie Thompson, the top Democrat on the House Homeland Security Committee, wants DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin to cancel a nearly billion dollar contract awarded last year to a company called Salus Worldwide to carry out a Trump administration program to encourage undocumented immigrants to self-deport.

But Salus, in an unusually aggressive move, is hitting back, arguing that criticism of its contract is being drummed up by larger DHS contractors that it accuses of undermining the Trump administration’s voluntary deportation efforts to pad their own profits.

DHS in May 2025 gave Salus a contract worth up to $915 million to help administer what the administration calls “Project Homecoming,” by providing free plane tickets and $1,000 payments to immigrants who sign agreements to give up legal challenges to deportation and leave the country voluntarily.

The award drew a lawsuit from CSI Aviation, a major ICE contractor, alleging that the contract was “unlawful, rushed, and noncompetitive.” It also drew scrutiny from inside DHS. One department official said the procurement was flawed and “created an appearance of favoritism toward Salus,” as Mother Jones and POGO Investigates reported.

In a letter sent Friday to Mullin, Thompson called it “incomprehensible” that DHS this May okayed a six-month extension of Salus’ contract. “You must take immediate action to stop this wasteful and corrupt spending,” the Mississippi Democrat wrote.

With confirmation hearings for Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche scheduled for this week, Blanche’s record will inevitably be in the spotlight. Among the most promising actions Blanche has taken in his current role are his recent efforts to turn up the temperature on the so-called “sanctuary” jurisdictions.

As the Trump administration seeks to carry out its mandate to enforce immigration law, one of the most recurring obstacles thus far has been the increasing presence of so-called “sanctuary” jurisdictions, where state and local authorities pledge not to cooperate with federal authorities in enforcing federal immigration laws. At best, these jurisdictions are providing no assistance to the federal government, and at worst, they are openly obstructing federal law enforcement.

Not only do these jurisdictions resist the lawful authority of the federal government on immigration, but they also continue to put Americans at risk through policies that favor criminal aliens over law-abiding Americans. For example, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz just pardoned a convicted Laotian child rapist in an unsuccessful attempt to shield him from deportation. Similarly, as recently shown by America First Legal, Virginia’s Fairfax County has continued to release illegal aliens into the community, even when these aliens are convicted of the worst kinds of crimes. These are the consequences of “sanctuary” policies everywhere they are enacted.

The Trump administration on Monday announced sweeping new banking rules aimed at cracking down on lending to illegal immigrants, requiring lenders to consider that borrowers without legal work authorization may pose “elevated credit risk,” a move that supporters say could improve housing affordability for Americans.

The rules require banks and credit unions to account for the possibility that an illegal immigrant borrower could lose his job, be unable to find lawful work, or be removed from the country before repaying a mortgage, auto loan, credit-card balance, or other debt.

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. and the National Credit Union Administration issued the joint guidance under President Donald Trump’s May executive order, “Restoring Integrity to America’s Financial System.”

As RedState reported on Monday, Democrat candidates for public office are putting lies out there that are so egregious that even Democrat-compliant mainstream media are calling them out.

For example, Abdul El-Sayed, who is the leading candidate in the Michigan Senate primary race, is finding that out the hard way, with CNN of all places publishing a report detailing how he indeed has repeatedly called for defunding the police despite what he’s said during the course of his Senate campaign, which we wrote about here. When they interviewed him about it, El-Sayed played word games and complained they were “fixated” on the word “defund” rather than the supposed larger message.

El-Sayed was also miffed when another media friendly, former MSDNC host, Mehdi Hasan, repeatedly questioned him on why he called himself a physician when he wasn’t one. Again, the agitated candidate played word games, stating that “At the end of the day, it’s not about whether or not I’m a physician or a doctor.”
