Trump to send thousands of migrants to Gitmo after Biden considered doing exactly the same thing

By Jason Hopkins | Daily Caller President Donald Trump ordered his administration to send tens of thousands of illegal migrants to Guantanamo Bay to help aid in his large-scale detention and deportation operation. For more than two decades, the Cuba-based Guantanamo Bay Naval Base has been used to hold suspected terrorists. While speaking at a ceremony for the signing of the Laken Riley Act, the president revealed that he would also be ordering the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Department of Defense (DoD) to construct a facility at the base to hold as many as 30,000 illegal migrants in an area distinct from where suspected terrorists are currently detained. This is not the first time the U.S. has utilized Guantanamo Bay for migrant detention. The Clinton administra...

Trump birthright citizenship order leaves loophole allowing ‘birth tourism’ method used by Chinese nationals

By Katelynn Richardson | Daily Caller One loophole in President Donald Trump’s executive order banning birthright citizenship could permit Chinese nationals, along with other non-citizens, to continue obtaining U.S. citizenship for their children. The order’s language leaves room for the growing international surrogacy industry — which allows intended parents from across the word to hire an American woman to carry their child to term — to continue operating as the newest means of “birth tourism.” According to the most recent data from the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM), foreign nationals went through 4,713 “gestational carrier cycles” — or attempts to implant an embryo — in 2020, up from 2,758 in 2014. Chinese nationals make up the highest percentage of users, a...

By John Oyewale | Daily Caller The Senate confirmed Republican South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem as the Secretary of Homeland Security (DHS) Saturday. “The yeas are 59, the nays are 34.

Noem, 53, becomes the eighth DHS Secretary. Her confirmation hearing was held Jan. 17. She will take over from Acting Secretary Benjamine Huffman, who was serving as a placeholder pending Noem’s confirmation. READ THE FULL STORY AT THE DAILY CALLER

DOJ pledges to end ‘weaponization’ of FACE act, drop three ongoing cases

By Robert McGreevy | Daily Caller The Department of Justice (DOJ) pledged to end the federal government’s weaponization of the law, instructing the Civil Rights Division to dismiss with prejudice three FACE Act cases that targeted pro-life protesters, according to a memorandum obtained by the Daily Caller. The DOJ under former President Joe Biden used the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act to prosecute a relatively large number of pro-life protesters. The 1994 law prohibits “violent, threatening, damaging, and obstructive conduct intended to injure, intimidate, or interfere with the right to seek, obtain or provide reproductive health services.” The majority of the pro-life protesters Biden’s DOJ prosecuted under the FACE Act were nonviolent. “Even though more than 1...

Authorities remove retired General Mark Milley’s portrait from Pentagon 10 days after its unveiling

By Frances Floresca | Daily Caller The Pentagon has removed a portrait of Mark Milley, a retired Army general and former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, only 10 days after it was unveiled. This move was made just after President Donald Trump’s inauguration. A Pentagon spokesperson confirmed to the Daily Caller that the portrait had been removed but deferred comment to the White House.

Anti-Trump Inauguration Day protests in Washington, D.C., fail to deliver

By Hudson Crozier | Daily Caller Left-wing groups opposing Donald Trump’s second presidency had plans to “fight back” with thousands of protesters in Washington, D.C. on Monday — but that’s not what happened. The Act Now to Stop War and End Racism (ANSWER) Coalition and the People’s Forum, who were behind anti-Israel riots last summer in the nation’s capital, organized Inauguration Day rallies that led local law enforcement to expect around 10,000 people across the town, starting at Malcolm X Park. The Daily Caller News Foundation, however, observed a different scene: a crowd of dozens standing in the snow, a pile of unused megaphones, and complaints about the icy weather. “We are here on a day that is so cold that they decided to put the inauguration indoors,” one speaker said at...

Senate passes Laken Riley act after Trump’s inauguration

By Henry Rodgers | Daily Caller The U.S. Senate voted Monday to pass the Laken Riley Act, just hours after President Donald Trump was sworn in. The bill would require federal immigration authorities to detain illegal migrants who commit theft-related crimes in the U.S. The legislation would also allow states to sue the Department of Homeland Security for harm caused to their residents because of illegal immigration. The bill passed in a 64-35 vote. Only 12 Democrats voted in favor of the bill. READ THE FULL STORY AT THE DAILY CALLER

White: Here are Trump’s options for dealing with an imminent nuclear threat that’s festered under Biden

By Wallace White | Commentary, Daily Caller Iran has largely been left unchecked by the Biden administration in its goal to become a nuclear power, presenting President-elect Donald Trump with a significant foreign policy challenge that has few easy solutions. Iran, with its current stockpiles, can make a nuclear weapon with 60% enriched uranium in just one week, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said in a November bulletin. The president-elect will have to choose a path quickly upon assuming office, such as renegotiating a deal to halt or slow Iran’s progress, military intervention or re-tooling sanctions that have so far been ineffective. “The United States needs another Middle East war like it needs a hole in the head,” Justin Logan, director of defense and foreign ...

Powell: In Meta culture shift, Zuckerberg brings UFC president Dana White onto board

By Andrew Powell | Commentary, The Daily Caller It’s way too early to tell if we can ever trust the Zuck, but this is a good start. We’re all aware of who Mark Zuckerberg is, we’re all aware of what Facebook is, two names that we’ve all been screwed over by at least once ever since Donald Trump won the 2016 presidential election. It didn’t matter if you were far to the right or just a little bit to the right, you’d get knocked for anything that went against the left-wing agenda. Facebook turned into a blatant echo chamber! But ever since Trump won the 2024 election — and honestly, you could say it’s been happening well before that — the culture has been shifting. And Monday brought us another example of that, as Zuckerberg has added three new members to the board of dire...

Biden confirms he is considering preemptively pardoning Anthony Fauci

By Reagan Reese | Daily Caller President Joe Biden confirmed in an interview with USA Today that he is considering preemptive pardons for Dr. Anthony Fauci and former Republican Rep. Liz Cheney. Following Biden’s decision to pardon his son Hunter (after months of insisting he would not do so), Politico reported that the president was considering pardoning those he thinks President-elect Donald Trump may target, including Fauci, Cheney and Democratic California Sen. Adam Schiff. Biden told USA Today that he has not made a decision on whether or not he will pardon them in his last 12 days in office and that it depends on who Trump appoints to his cabinet. “Well, a little bit of it depends on who he puts in what positions. If in fact, he … here’s how … I was very straightforward with...
