Trump on the $100 bill? A measure by a Texas congressman proposes it, in a removal of a Founding Father

By Brian Porter | Rocky Mountain Voice U.S. Rep. Brandon Gill, R-Flower Mound, Texas, the son-in-law to conservative filmmaker Dinesh D'Souza, has authored a measure which would place President Donald J. Trump on the $100 bill, removing a Founding Father of America. The Golden Age Act of 2025 was introduced Monday, proposing to remove Benjamin Franklin from any $100 currency note printed after Dec. 31, 2028. “President Trump could be enjoying his golden years golfing and spending time with his family. Instead, he took a bullet for this country and is now working overtime to secure our border, fix our uneven trade relationship with the rest of the world, make America energy independent again, and put America first by ending useless foreign aid,” Gill writes in a press release suppo...

President Trump announces arrest of alleged Abbey Gate bombing terrorist

By Thomas Stevenson | The Post Millennial On Tuesday, President Donald Trump announced that the United States has arrested the terrorist allegedly responsible for the Abbey Gate bombing during the Afghanistan withdrawal that claimed the lives of 13 US service members.  "America is once again standing strong against the forces of radical Islamic terrorism," Trump said. "Three and a half years ago, ISIS terrorists killed 13 American service members and countless others in the Abbey Gate bombing during the disastrous and incompetent withdrawal from Afghanistan. Not that they were withdrawing. It was the way they withdrew, perhaps the most embarrassing moment in the history of our country. Tonight, I am pleased to announce that we have just apprehended the top terrorist responsible...

Google begs Trump DOJ to reverse course on breaking up monopoly after antitrust trial

By Lucas Nolan | Breitbart Google is asking the Trump administration’s Justice Department to reconsider its push to break up the search giant, arguing that such a move could harm U.S. national security and the economy. Bloomberg reports that representatives from Google met with officials from the DOJ last week, urging them to take a less aggressive approach in their ongoing antitrust case against the company. The search engine giant is currently facing potential remedies that could force it to sell its Chrome web browser and make significant changes to its business practices, including ending billions of dollars in exclusivity payments to companies like Apple. Google’s argument centers around the potential impact on national security and the economy if the company were to be brok...

SCOTUS rules on nearly $2 billion in frozen USAID payments

By Breanne Deppisch  | Fox News The Supreme Court on Wednesday denied the Trump administration's request to block a lower court's order for the administration to pay nearly $2 billion in foreign aid money, delivering a near-term reprieve to international aid groups and contractors seeking payment for previously completed projects. In a 5-4 ruling, the justices said that the Feb. 26 deadline imposed by a lower court for the Trump administration to pay the funds had already expired, and directed the case back to the district court to clarify any additional details on payment. "Given that the deadline in the challenged order has now passed, and in light of the ongoing preliminary injunction proceedings, the District Court should clarify what obligations the Government must ...

‘Who’s that who sat next to Gabe Evans at Trump’s speech?’ It was the mother of a Northern Colorado fentanyl victim

By Brian Porter | Rocky Mountain Voice If you tuned in to President Donald J. Trump's Address to the Nation on Tuesday, March 4, during a joint session of Congress, you might have gotten a glimpse of a number of lawmakers. One could be U.S. Rep. Gabe Evans, the representative from Colorado's 8th District. And seated next to him, you ask? That was Liz Hardy, who in the early hours of Jan. 1, 2022, tragically lost her middle daughter, Brooke. She consumed half of a counterfeit pill laced with a lethal amount of fentanyl. Brooke attempted to call 911 but could not give an address or reason for her call, and soon died. “One time, half a pill, and life for our family changed forever," Liz Hardy said. "If it were not for our faith in Christ, knowing we will see Brooke again one day, ...

By Brian Porter | Rocky Mountain Voice The national spotlight will shine brightly on Denver and Mayor Mike Johnston's sanctuary city policies during the U.S. House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform today. He's among American mayors who will appear in front of the Committee. Across the dias will be Committee member U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert and Committee waiver U.S. Rep.
