GOP reps demand removal of judge who freed violent offender before train murder

By Virginia Kruta | Daily Wire “Ms. Zarutska’s murder was not only a profound personal tragedy but also a direct result of a failure of judicial responsibility.” Ten North Carolina Republican Reps., led by Rep. Tim Moore (R-NC), called on Tuesday for the removal of Magistrate Judge Teresa Stokes, who released 14-time offender Decarlos Johnson Jr. before he murdered Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska. Moore shared a letter, signed by nine of his colleagues, in which he called on Chief Judge Roy Wiggins to begin “formal removal proceedings” against Stokes, saying that her decision to release Johnson — based solely on his written promise to return for his next court date — had been, at best, “reckless.” “Despite his history of violent and unstable behavior, Magistrate Stokes release...

Former Army Commander Warns America Still Vulnerable 24 Years After 9/11

By Rick Lynch | Commentary, The Daily Wire In order to maintain our freedoms we need a strong military. The terrorist attacks on 11 September 2001, were a wake-up call for America, and I sincerely hope it is not one we as a nation have forgotten. There are still folks out there who hate our freedoms and our way of life. We are no longer protected by oceans and geographical distance from potential enemies. We must always remember we are a nation at risk and be prepared for the next attack. I do believe in peace through strength. I was the Assistant Division Commander for the U.S. Army’s 4th Infantry Division on the 11th of September in 2001. I was in the middle of packing to head to the airport when my wife Sarah asked me to turn on the television. Those TV images are still etch...

New Bill Rolls Back Decades-Old Gun Law on Suppressors

By Brent Scher | The Daily Wire What looked like a small throw-in legislative win could pave the way for a seismic legal victory for Second Amendment advocates. Plenty of ink has been spilled on the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, the sweeping piece of budget reconciliation legislation that cuts taxes, creates “Trump accounts” for newborns, and grants an unprecedented new surge of funding in support of mass deportation and border security efforts. But one of the law’s biggest impacts may be its unfurling of a longstanding gun law that firearms enthusiasts and Second Amendment advocates have long had in their sights. The government has imposed a tax on suppressors, tools that are used to dampen the sound of a gunshot, ever since 1934, when the National Firearms Act was passed. Thank...

“Devastating trend”: High school seniors hit record-low reading levels

By Leif Le Mahieu | Daily Wire "The achievement gap between students is widening, not shrinking." The Trump administration renewed its push to return control of education to the states after new data revealed continued declines in the reading, math, and science scores of high school seniors nationwide. The National Center for Education Statistics released the “Nation’s Report Card” for 12th-grade students on Tuesday, finding that reading levels had reached new lows and math scores were the worst in 20 years. Secretary of Education Linda McMahon said that the numbers confirmed a “devastating trend” of American students testing at “historic lows.” “Despite billions in federal spending and countless well-intentioned programs, the achievement gap between students is widen...

Trump Admin Supports Nationwide Bill to Shield Children From Transgender Procedures

By Leif Le Mahieu | Daily Wire The legislation would allow kids to sue their doctors within 25 years of their 18th birthday.  The Trump administration is backing legislation that would ban doctors from performing transgender procedures on children and allow lawsuits against doctors or hospitals who greenlit such procedures.   The Justice Department said Wednesday that it had “transmitted a legislative proposal to Congress that protects and defends children from chemical and surgical mutilation under the guise of ‘gender-affirming care.’” In the press release, the DOJ said it was backing a proposal from Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) and Rep. Bob Onder (R-MO) that would protect children nationwide from transgender procedures. “The Department of Justice has h...

Trump Calls for Transparency: Pfizer Must Share Vaccine Data Immediately

By Leif Le Mahieu | Daily Wire “It is very important that the Drug Companies justify the success of their various Covid Drugs." President Donald Trump issued a Labor Day appeal for Pfizer to share its COVID-19 vaccine data with the CDC and the public immediately. Trump said on Truth Social that Pfizer had shown him impressive numbers on its COVID vaccine, but that they had not made them publicly available. His call for transparency comes after the White House fired CDC Director Susan Monarez last week following her clash with Health and Human Services Director Robert F. Kennedy Jr. over the approval of COVID vaccines.  “It is very important that the Drug Companies justify the success of their various Covid Drugs. Many people think they are a miracle that saved Mi...

Despite Executive Order Schools Still Advancing Gender Ideology

By Mairead Elordi | The Daily Wire Parents, your child’s school might be gearing up to push transgender ideology this fall. As the first day of school approaches, the pressing cultural issue that continues to rile parents and helped catapult Trump to the White House in November remains alive and well in hundreds of school districts across the country despite the president’s efforts to stamp it out. During his first weeks in office, Trump signed a pair of executive orders threatening public schools with existential federal funding cuts if they refuse to root out “gender ideology,” including erasing it from the curriculum, banning males from girls’ sports teams and locker rooms, and no longer encouraging children’s “social transitions,” which can include using new pronouns, allowing...

Full video shows attack on elderly pro‑lifers outside Planned Parenthood

By Leif Le Manieu | Daily Wire The man who avoided jail time after brutally beating two elderly pro-life advocates in Baltimore accused them of bothering “vulnerable people” seconds before attacking them, according to surveillance footage obtained by The Daily Wire. Patrick Brice, 28, was sentenced by Baltimore Judge Yvette Bryant on Thursday to just one year of home confinement and three years of probation for attacking 73-year-old Mark Crosby and 84-year-old Richard Schaefer as they stood outside Planned Parenthood doing pro-life sidewalk counseling. Crosby was left with serious injuries to his face and multiple fractures. Before attacking the elderly men, Brice engaged in a heated argument with Schaefer where he told him to “quit bothering vulnerable people.” He then ...

After decades of clashes, Trump secures Armenia–Azerbaijan peace deal

By Zach Jewell | Daily Wire "… today's great achievement is yet another testimony to your global leadership and your legacy as a statesman and a peacemaker on the world stage."

Mexican-Linked Group Pressures U.S. Banks to Lend to Illegal Immigrants

By Spencer Lindquist | The Daily Wire A far-left organization partnered with financial institutions, activist groups, and the Mexican consulate to push banks to offer mortgage loans to illegal aliens and “protect undocumented immigrants.” Rise Economy, a leftist organization formerly called the California Reinvestment Coalition, was behind a report advocating for mortgage loans to be made available to illegal aliens who obtain an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN), a financial tool that often enables illegals to obtain home and auto loans. The report indicates that the marketing and distribution of loans to illegal aliens, which The Daily Wire has documented extensively, may in part be the result of leftwing ideology and activism ra...
