White House Pushes Congress To Strengthen Welfare Fraud Laws After Task Force Findings

By: Breccan F. Thies | The Federalist Welfare programs were created in a ‘high trust’ America that no longer exists. THE WHITE HOUSE — Vice President J.D. Vance has been leading the charge against billions in taxpayer fraud. But to mobilize the entire federal government in combating the theft, Vance said Wednesday, Congress needs to create harsher punishments for fraudsters and force states to share data for welfare recipients. Vance hosted a roundtable with members of Congress at the White House midweek, attempting to hammer out plans for legislation to strengthen the executive branch’s ability to investigate fraud and expand prosecutors’ options to penalize Americans and illegals committing fraud. Since the start of Vance’s anti-fraud task force, the gr...

Senate Investigators Secure Fauci Government Cellphone in Expanding COVID Probe

By Mariane Angela | Breitbart A Senate committee led by Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) has obtained a forensic copy of Dr. Anthony Fauci’s cellphone. The Department of Health and Human Services handed over the device data to the Senate Homeland Security Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations. The development follows the release of Fauci’s personal journals after HHS turned them over to Congress. Johnson’s office said the cellphone dates back to Fauci’s tenure as head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. The device is now overseen by Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has long accused Fauci of protecting the pharmaceutical industry and undermining individual freedoms. READ THE FULL ARTICLE AT BREITBART

Socialist Backed Candidates Continue to Build Momentum in 2026

By: Newt Gingrich | Gingrich 360 The recent surge in endorsements by the Democratic Socialists of America for various electoral races — congressional, state, and local — is cause for concern. This year, the Democratic Socialists of America has endorsed 29 candidates for the House of Representatives. Of these, 11 have been defeated in their primaries, seven have won, and 11 are still awaiting their primaries. The importance of these endorsements lies in the positions held by some of these candidates. Here are a few examples of the candidates and their viewpoints: Melat Kiros, a former attorney, defeated 30-year incumbent Democratic Rep. Diana DeGette for Colorado’s 1st Congressional District. Endorsed by both the DSA, Denver DSA, and U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders, Kir...

Immigration Reform And Ending War Could Ease Inflation

By Steve Cortes | Commentary, The Daily Signal Housing affordability is awful, and it looks set to get worse. Unless, of course, we take corrective action, especially on immigration and war. Here’s the harsh current reality: Inflation continues to bedevil far too many Americans. Other than owners of substantial assets, wage earners have struggled in this economy for five years, ever since the profligacy of the COVID-19 panic sent prices surging. Consider the kitchen-table fallout from this inflation. Right now, mortgage rates are rising as U.S. Treasury yields climb. Bond investors worldwide demand higher yields to lend money to America, a country grappling with nearly a staggering $40 trillion in federal debt. Consequently, here is the math with ...

A union pipeline DSA built on college campuses

By Shaina Cole | Contributing Writer, Rocky Mountain Voice DSA's youth section trains students to organize on campus. What happens after graduation is its own story, one its own members describe directly. "YDSA's job is to train socialists on campus and create a pipeline into DSA," Dare Cima, a University of Louisville YDSA member, said at the organization's national conference this spring. "We should be preparing members to enter strategic sectors of the labor movement after college. That means encouraging people to become teachers, nurses, engineers, logistics workers, and preparing them to organize in those fields." More than 400 people attended that conference.  Gerica Noerdinger, cochair of YDSA's Youth Labor Committee, said more than 65 percent of them signed ple...

Biden Pardon and Fauci Fifth Amendment Fight Headed for the Courts

By Just the News Contributor | Just the News Whether Fauci was legally entitled to invoke Fifth Amendment may ultimately depend on how courts balance broad immunity conferred in Biden pardon against remaining risk of post-pardon criminal exposure. Dr. Anthony Fauci, who helped lead the country's COVID pandemic response, invoking the constitutional right against self-incrimination last week during a contentious Senate hearing on the response and the virus's origins has sparked a fierce legal – and political – debate whose origins date back to a late-1800s Supreme Court decision and that will likely be resolved in court.  Sen. Rand Paul, the Senate committee chairman, argues the constitutional privilege no longer applies because the sweeping, preemptive pardon for...

Democratic Socialism Is Communism With Better Branding

By: Cheryl K. Chumley | Commentary, The Washington Times A Reuters/Ipsos poll released Tuesday found 47% of Americans say they don’t understand what it means to be a democratic socialist. Meanwhile, a Washington Post/Ipsos poll released a few days earlier found 39% of U.S. adults would consider voting for a democratic socialist for president. For the sake of the low-information voter — and by the looks of recent polling, there are quite a few of them — let’s clarify that democratic socialism is one and the same as socialism. Moreover, socialism is one and the same as communism. And since today’s Democrat Party has ceded its political power to the democratic socialist crowd, and the Democratic Socialists of America influences, then it’s clear a vo...

America First promised fewer wars. Iran is testing that promise

By Brian Joondeph | Commentary, American Thinker Five months into the Iran conflict, supporters are asking whether America First still means fewer wars. One of President Donald Trump’s defining campaign themes was refreshingly simple: America should stop fighting endless wars. He repeated that message across three presidential campaigns. Iraq was a mistake. Afghanistan became a twenty-year quagmire. America had spent trillions of dollars, sacrificed thousands of lives, and, too often, had little to show for it beyond instability and nation-building projects that rarely fulfilled their promises. During a 2016 presidential debate, Trump called the Iraq War “a big fat mistake.” Eight years later, while campaigning for a return to the White House, he promi...

Tech Leaders Say Misinformation Is Driving Resistance to Data Centers

By Christina Park | Just the News Facing NIMBY: Industry experts and lawmakers are pushing back against "disinformation" about data centers, arguing that they are vital for American jobs and technological leadership. State lawmakers and big tech are pushing back against misinformation surrounding data centers. Once welcomed for their local economic benefits, they say these facilities now face resistance due to fear and disinformation over water and electricity consumption, complicated by a global AI race against China. “What I want to do, and what President Trump wants to do is make sure we dominate the next revolution in technology, which is of course, AI and data centers,” economist Stephen Moore told the Just the News, No Noise show at the American ...

Clinton Era Tactics Still Shape Democrat Crisis Response

By: Chris Bray | Commentary, The Federalist Delay, delay, delay, then dismiss the scandal as old news. Clinton 101. Democrats always lie the same way, so pattern recognition becomes a kind of vaccine, except that it actually creates immunity. Once you know how they do it, they can never fool you again. Unless you’re also a Democrat, in which case you were born to be fooled, and you can just go back to sucking your thumb in a basement. Back in the political Pleistocene, a slippery American president who was known as “Slick Willie” slogged through scandal after scandal, often in the company of his amoral and tone-deaf grifter wife. Perpetually embroiled in controversy because of their own behavior, this shameless couple developed a set of reliable techniques for t...
