Senate gears up for what could be ‘explosive’ confirmation hearing for Kash Patel

By Samantha-Jo Roth | Washington Examiner Senators on both sides of the aisle are preparing for the confirmation hearing for Kash Patel, President Donald Trump’s nominee to lead the FBI, a critical test for the 44-year-old lawyer who is seen as one of the most controversial Cabinet nominees. Patel will appear before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday, Jan. 30. The MAGA loyalist will be in the hot seat and will be pressed on the more controversial elements of his background, such as his deeply polarizing views about gutting the agency he wants to lead and what critics call an “enemies list” of Patel’s opponents.  Prior to his nomination, Patel flirted with unproven conspiracy theories, including QAnon, made calls to shut down the FBI headq...

Dr. Phil films as ICE targets migrants in Chicago

By Richard Pollina | Washington Examiner Dr. Phil McGraw embedded with US immigration enforcement officers during deportation raids on Sunday — quizzing a convicted child sex offender who smugly tried to brush off being in the country illegally. The TV host joined border czar Tom Homan in Chicago Sunday night when they took into custody Sam Seda, a Thai national who openly admitted he was not a citizen. “This is an example of sanctuary cities, right,” Homan told the host as they quizzed the cuffed migrant, one of 270 “high-value targets” they were seeking in the Windy City under President Trump’s new policy.

Score one for Trump’s tariff threat tactic, as Colombia caves on deportation flights

By Jamie McIntyre | Washington Examiner A short-lived standoff with the government of Colombia over the acceptance of U.S. military flights carrying deported immigrants ended last night after President Donald Trump threatened the South American country with visa restrictions and initial 25% tariffs before Colombian President Gustavo Petro caved. “The government of Colombia has agreed to all of President Trump’s terms, including the unrestricted acceptance of all illegal aliens from Colombia returned from the United States, including on U.S. military aircraft, without limitation or delay,” the White House said in a statement from press secretary Karoline Leavitt, who noted the tariff will be held “in reserve” while the visa restrictions would remain “until the...

L.A. caves to Trump, local residents: Pacific Palisades to reopen immediately

By Joel B. Pollak | Breitbart Los Angeles County authorities announced Sunday evening at a mayor with L.A. Mayor Karen Bass that the Pacific Palisades will be completely reopened to residents in daylight hours on Monday, January 27 — far ahead of schedule. Two days before, at a roundtable at a local fire station on Friday, Bass had told President Donald Trump that it was unsafe for residents to return. After residents at the meeting objected, Bass relented and said they could return “within a week.” Trump replied: “That’s a long time, a week. I’ll be honest, to me, everyone standing in front of their house, they want to go to work and they’re not allowed to do it. … They’re safe. They’re safe. You know what? They’re not safe. They’re not safe now. They’re going to be much safer. A...
