Texas Rep Warns of “Judicial Tyranny” Blocking Trump Agenda

By George Caldwell | The Daily Signal Republican Rep. Brandon Gill of Texas says judges overruling President Donald Trump’s agenda amounts to “judicial tyranny.” Now, Gill is calling on Congress to end the judicial overreach via impeachment. “One of the biggest problems in the country right now is judicial tyranny,” Gill told The Daily Signal’s Tony Kinnett on “The Tony Kinnett Cast.” “It’s judges who are taking off their robes and acting as if they’re political operatives … active members of the Democrat party who are there to do the Democrats’ bidding.” Gill criticized James “Jeb” Boasberg in particular, the President Barack Obama-appointed chief judge of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia.

Teen’s Suicide Highlights Rising Sextortion Crisis Targeting American Teens

By: Chadwick Moore | New York Post The afternoon that 15-year-old Bryce Tate was sextorted started off as a perfectly normal Thursday. The Cross Lanes, W. Va., sophomore came home from the gym on Nov. 6, scarfed down a plate of tacos prepared by his mom, then went outside to shoot hoops. At 4:37 p.m., he received a text message from a strange number. Three hours later, Bryce was found in his dad’s man cave — dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. “They say it’s suicide, but in my book it is 100% murder,” Bryce’s father, Adam Tate, told The Post. “They’re godless demons, in my opinion. Just cowards, awful individuals, worse than criminals.” READ THE FULL ARTICLE AT THE NEW YORK POST

Boulder Climate Case Risks Imposing Local Agendas on the Entire Nation

By Christopher Mills | Commentary, The Federalist This week, the U.S. Supreme Court should consider a basic constitutional reality: county officials from Boulder, Colorado, cannot force their preferred climate policies on the rest of the nation. Obvious as it seems, that is what’s at stake in Suncor Energy Inc. v. Boulder County, a climate change case the court will weigh for review on Dec. 12. Like the other thirty-odd copycat climate lawsuits filed by states and localities from Honolulu to my hometown of Charleston, Boulder’s suit weaponizes tort law to try to transform state courts into vehicles for deploying sweeping climate mandates. If Boulder gets its way, the casualties won’t be confined to the energy companies it endeavors to bankrupt; American consumers an...

Forecast Shows Home Prices Falling in Much of the South and West in 2026

By Mary Cunningham | CBS News It's still a tough time to get a foothold in the housing market, with homes sitting near record values and mortgage rates parked well above 6%. But the tide could turn in 2026, with property prices forecast to dip in 22 of the largest 100 U.S. cities and mortgage rates expected to ease slightly, according to a new analysis from Realtor.com. The real estate market is expected to move in a more "buyer-friendly" direction next year, leading to the "most balanced housing market" since the pandemic, meaning that neither sellers nor buyers are likely to have the upper hand in negotiations, said Jake Krimmel, a senior economist at Realtor.com. Mortgage rates are expected to dip to an average of 6.3% next year, a slight drop from 2025's ...

Justices Take Key Immigration Case on Trump Order Limiting Birthright Citizenship

By Jack Birle | The Washington Examiner The Supreme Court announced Friday that it will hear arguments in a case challenging President Donald Trump‘s executive order on birthright citizenship later this term. In an order released Friday afternoon, the justices said they would take up for review Trump v. Barbara, a case originally brought in a federal court in New Hampshire by a group of people whose children could be affected by the order. The Justice Department filed petitions to the high court to hear the Barbara case and Trump v. Washington, a challenge brought by Democrat-led states, in September, arguing the justices should rule on the legality of the order. “The government has a compelling interest in en...

Fake Identities Still Approved for Obamacare Subsidies, Watchdog Warns of Systemic Failures

By Nicholas Ballasy | Just the News "We were able to get subsidized insurance for fake enrollees. We also found some issues with enrollees' Social Security numbers that could indicate identity fraud. The program's fraud risks were last assessed in 2018, even though the program and its risks have since evolved,” the GAO reported A newly released report from the Government Accountability Office reveals that “fraud risks in the advance premium tax credit (APTC) persist,” despite earlier warnings and reforms.  The APTC is a “subsidy that the government pays to insurance companies to make premiums more affordable for eligible Americans under the Affordable Care Act.” CMS paid nearly $124 billion in APTC in 2024 alone, covering about 19.5 million enrolle...

Tina Peters Requests Presidential Pardon as New Evidence Bolsters Her Claims

By A.L. Goodwin | Guest Contributor, Rocky Mountain Voice On December 6, 2025, former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters formally submitted an application for a Presidential Pardon to President Donald J. Trump. Her legal team describes the request as both a matter of justice and national security, pointing to newly released evidence and expanding federal investigations that directly corroborate Peters’ original claims. Attorney John Case, who represents Peters, summarized the urgency: “The President has authority under the U.S. Constitution to pardon Tina Peters. Colorado officials continue to persecute Tina in state prison, where her health has deteriorated. The courts refuse to allow Tina release on bond while the Colorado Court of Appeals considers her appeal. So, Tina h...

Behind closed doors: Gender doctors admit they are ‘winging it’ with minors

By Leor Sapir | The Free Press In footage obtained exclusively by The Free Press, gender doctors acknowledge they perform life-altering procedures on vulnerable youth with no supportive evidence—and they are proud of it. At their conferences, closed to outsiders and the press, the gender clinicians allowed themselves to speak freely. They spoke about the boys who said they wanted to be girls and the girls who felt they were meant to be boys, and the medical and surgical interventions that would make them appear as the opposite sex. The clinicians also discussed new procedures for a new type of patient—some of them adolescents—who wanted to be made to look as if they had no sex at all. In one of the videos, obtained exclusively by The Free Press, from the 2021 conf...

Media Frenzy Over Hegseth Exposed as Another Political Operation

By: M.D. Kittle | Commentary, The Federalist ‘And for their next act? – They want him tried for war crimes …They intend to prosecute another political opponent,’ said Sen. Schmitt. Garbage in, garbage out.  GIGO, as computer geeks commonly call it, is the principle that if a system receives inadequate or bad data, the results will surely be flawed.  Same goes with news reporting.  The garbage leaks that went into the Washington Post’s latest “Get Trump” hoax was so bad that even the Trump Derangement Syndrome-suffering New York Times could smell the stink. As my colleague Brianna Lyman wrote this week, the Post’s Alex Horton and Ellen Nakashima claimed Secretary of War Pete Hegseth “gave a spoken directive” to...
