Cole: I support the SAVE Act—but we need to fix the documentation trap

By Shaina Cole | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice Living in Colorado for nearly four years, I’ve grown to love its sweeping landscapes and spirited community. But the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, passed by the House in 2024 and under Senate review in 2025, alongside the REAL ID Act’s looming May 7, 2025, deadline, has exposed a personal struggle that highlights a broader issue.  The SAVE Act demands photo ID and proof of U.S. citizenship—like a REAL ID, passport, or birth certificate—to vote in federal elections. I support its aim to ensure election integrity, but as a twice-divorced woman without my marriage certificates, I’m trapped. My Tennessee driver’s license, despite proving my name change in 2014, isn’t REAL ID-compliant, and even without the...

Black Hawk pilot Rachel Lobach ignored instructions before mid-air collision over Potomac River

By Hayden Cunningham | The Post Millennial The pilot of the Black Hawk military helicopter that collided with a passenger airplane over Washington, DC, in January ignored instructions to change course moments before the crash took place, according to a report by the New York Times. Captain Rebecca Lobach, piloting the Black Hawk, was undergoing an annual flight evaluation at the time, while her co-pilot, Chief Warrant Officer 2 Andrew Loyd Eaves, served as the flight instructor. Air traffic controllers had warned the helicopter crew about a nearby passenger airliner, and both Lobach and Eaves acknowledged the warning, opting to proceed under "visual separation.” This is a method where pilots are allowed to continue flying in the area by using their own observations rat...

How Trump sealed the border in his first 100 days

By Spencer Lindquist | Daily Wire The United States endured a never-before-seen surge in illegal immigration under President Joe Biden, watching as hordes of migrants charged border barriers and towns across the country were reshaped virtually overnight by mass migration. The issue, perhaps more than any other, propelled President Donald Trump to victory in the 2024 election. Trump pledged to end the “invasion on our southern border” throughout his campaign. And in the first 100 days of his second administration, the president has slashed border crossings to a fraction of what they were just months ago. Through a combination of policy changes, arrests and deportations, sanctions, and coordination with foreign governments, Trum...

Rep LaMalfa takes aim at Endangered Species Act: ‘Species of the week’ halting real conservation

By Maddie Biertempfel | DC News Now WASHINGTON (NEXSTAR) – Recovering animals that are nearing extinction, like the black-footed ferret, was the whole point of the 1973 Endangered Species Act but some lawmakers say it needs to be reformed. “Is the program working as designed 50 years ago?'” Rep. Doug LaMalfa (R-Calif.) asked. “No, it’s been interpreted way beyond that, where it isn’t just the species, but they want to have every ounce of possible habitat as they determine is critical habitat.” California Republican Congressman Doug LaMalfa says the law has hindered new infrastructure and doing things like controlled burns, aimed at preventing larger fires and ultimately helping habitats. “Instead, like in forestry, we end up with million-acre fires, 500,000-acre fires year afte...

Feds bust Wisconsin judge for allegedly helping illegal migrant accused of punching victim 30 times evade ICE agents

By Emily Crane and Samuel Chamberlain | New York Post A veteran Wisconsin judge was arrested Friday on charges of helping a Mexican illegal migrant evade Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in her courtroom. Judge Hannah Dugan, who has been on the Milwaukee County bench for nearly a decade, is accused of obstruction of justice and concealing Eduardo Flores-Ruiz from arrest following a pre-trial hearing last week. Dugan appeared briefly in Milwaukee federal court Friday morning before being released after prosecutors said they would not ask for her detention before trial. Her arraignment has been set for May 15. READ THE FULL STORY AT THE NEW YORK POST

Donald Trump, Scott Bessent reveal which country could be close to making trade deal

By Harold Hutchison | Daily Caller President Donald Trump and Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent said on Thursday that negotiations over a potential trade agreement with South Korea are making progress. Trump announced a 90-day pause on reciprocal tariffs via an April 9 post on Truth Social that also announced substantial increases on tariffs on Chinese exports to the United States, a week after he initially unveiled the duties on imports. Bessent said that the talks with South Korea had gone “faster” than he expected.  “Yes, I will,” Trump said when asked if he would be meeting world leaders while in Italy to attend the funeral of Pope Francis. “I would like to meet them all. That would be nice. I would like to take care of all of them. Many of them there. They all want to m...

Judge blocks Trump election order despite overwhelming American support for voter ID

By Rachel Wolf , Alec Schemmel  | Fox News A federal judge in Washington, D.C., blocked a portion of President Donald Trump’s executive order on election integrity that is popular among Americans, according to a Gallup poll. The portion of the order that Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia struck down included provisions related to requiring proof of citizenship to register to vote. Less than two weeks before the 2024 election, Gallup found that 84% of U.S. adults were in favor of requiring voters to show identification and 83% supported requiring proof of citizenship when registering for the first time.  READ THE FULL STORY AT FOX NEWS

Trump: Prepared to attack Iran ‘Willingly’ with no nuclear deal

By Charlie McCarthy  | Newsmax President Donald Trump warned that he could "very willingly" order the U.S. military to take out Iran's nuclear facilities if negotiations between the two countries fail to produce an agreement. Trump has repeatedly said Iran cannot be allowed to acquire nuclear weapons. Negotiations between Iran and the U.S. over Tehran's rapidly advancing nuclear program will return Saturday to the secluded sultanate of Oman, where experts on both sides will start hammering the technical details of any possible deal.

‘Financial and ethical misconduct’ allegations against Davos founder Klaus Schwab made public

By Simon Kent | Breitbart Manipulating research, using company funds to pay for private, in-room massages, asking junior staff to withdraw thousands of dollars for personal use, demanding senior management deliver a Nobel Peace Prize nomination. These are just some of the lurid allegations that pushed the World Economic Forum (WEF) to launch an investigation into its now departed founder, Klaus Schwab, after anonymous whistleblowers aired their concerns about the German octogenarian. The assertions – reportedly sent last week in a letter to the WEF, which organises the annual elite gathering of globalist devotees at Davos in Switzerland – accuse Schwab and his wife, Hilde, of financial and ethical misconduct.
