The left’s sudden crusade for ‘Due process’ is a political smokescreen to defend mass migration

By  Brianna Lyman | The Federalist For weeks, media bombarded Americans with reports about a “Maryland father” who was mistakenly deported to a prison in El Salvador — a sympathetic figure supposedly plucked from the streets in a suburb in Baltimore. At the time it appeared the only available detail that stained Democrats’ caricature of Kilmar Abrego Garcia was his alleged involvement in MS-13. Such an allegation didn’t deter Democrats from rushing to his defense, with Maryland Sen. Chris Van Hollen going so far as to fly to El Salvador to sit down with Abrego Garcia — a surreal photo-op complete with margaritas. But as Hollen made his visit to El Salvador, new details surfaced: Abrego Garcia wasn’t just allegedly linked to MS-13 — he was also an accused wife-beater and hum...

Senators demand Obama-Era inspector general’s cooperation in probe of J6 undercover agents

By Beth Brelje | The Federalist Two prominent senators sent a letter this week to Inspector General Michael Horowitz, pressing him to fully cooperate with their investigation of undercover “confidential human sources” in the crowd at the U.S. Capitol building on Jan. 6, 2021. Horowitz, who was appointed by former President Barack Obama in 2012, has failed to respond to requests for information about confidential human sources on Jan. 6, according to Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., chairman of the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, and Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. They sent Horowitz a letter on Dec. 16, seeking more information about his Dec. 12 report on how the FBI handled its confidential human sources in advance of J6. ...

DOGE: Criminal aliens paroled by Biden took in $1.3 Million in taxpayer handouts  

By M.D. Kittle | The Federalist While the left goes about its little “Hands Off!” temper-tantrum, their leaders have forced Americans to pick up the tab in government benefits for “paroled” illegal immigrants convicted of crimes — even suspected terrorists.  The Biden administration paid out at least  $1.3 million in Medicaid, student loans, tax refunds, and other federal government benefits and payments to thousands of paroled aliens with criminal or terrorist records, according to the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). “Under the Biden administration, it was routine for [U.S.] Border Patrol to admit aliens into the United States with no legal status and minimal screening,” the government fat trimmer said Friday in an X post.  READ THE FULL STORY AT THE...

Republicans win special house elections, expanding slim majority

By Shawn Fleetwood | The Federalist Republican candidates won both special House elections in Florida on Tuesday night, expanding the party’s slim majority in the lower chamber. According to The New York Times, Republican Jimmy Patronis is projected to defeat Democrat Gay Valimont in the Sunshine State’s 1st Congressional District. Located in the Florida Panhandle, the district’s residents overwhelmingly supported President Donald Trump over former Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 election. The seat was left open following the resignation of former Rep. Matt Gaetz, who stepped down after being nominated by Trump to serve as attorney general. Gaetz ultimately withdrew his nomination to the position after facing resistance from several GOP senators reportedly opposed to his ...

21 Million Voters Can’t Provide Proof Of Citizenship — Making The SAVE Act Even More Necessary

By Brianna Lyman | The Federalist The left-wing Brennan Center for Justice claimed that more than 20 million Americans “lack ready access” to proof of citizenship documents. What’s more, the group asserted that survey data shows nearly 4 million Americans “don’t have these documents at all.” The Brennan Center apparently relied on the honor system when performing its survey, so it’s not clear that the respondents are even American citizens — as is often the case with the current voter registration system. But even if they are citizens, failing to require proof of citizenship still poses a threat to the integrity of U.S. elections. Yet the left and the propaganda press oppose the SAVE Act because they claim Americans are essentially too lazy to get their citizenship documents in order...

Trump slams ‘communist’ persecution of conservatives while speaking at DOJ

By  Logan Washburn | The Federalist The Department of Justice was persecuting Donald Trump with sham trials just last year. But today, now-President Trump spoke at the DOJ, calling out the “communist” federal persecution of conservatives. “They tried to turn America into a corrupt communist and Third World country, but in the end, the thugs failed and the truth won. Freedom won, justice won, democracy won, and above all, the American people won,” Trump said. “There could be no more heinous betrayal of American values than to use the law to terrorize the innocent and reward the wicked.” A “corrupt group of hacks and radicals” in the federal government “weaponized the vast powers of our intelligence and law enforcement agencies to try and thwart the will of the American people,” Tru...

Never forget what the lockdowners did to us

By M.D. Kittle | The Federalist, Commentary In March 2020, my aunt collapsed with a painful headache and was rushed to the hospital. We would soon learn that the headache was symptomatic of an aggressive form of brain cancer that no surgery or treatment could cure. Within six weeks we buried my beloved aunt and godmother.  Her death was swift and devastating, made all the more painful by the draconian “stay at home” orders that the state of Illinois issued. The blue state, led by the far-left Gov. J.B. Pritzker, was not alone. Lockdown madness was sweeping the nation. Among its first victims were people like my uncle, my cousins, my family — all locked out from seeing our dying loved one in the opening days of her hospitalization. My aunt’s husband of 60 years couldn’t even be a...

Department Of Education cuts staff by 50 percent

By Breccan F. Thies | The Federalist The U.S. Department of Education announced on Tuesday evening that it will be cutting its staff by about 50 percent as part of a “reduction-in-force” to start downsizing the department. In a press call, a senior department official said that of the 4,133 employees currently at the Education Department, 1,315 will be subject to the reduction-in-force — a formal governmental process. That number is on top of the 259 employees who utilized the deferred resignation program, 313 who took the voluntary separation incentive payment of $25,000, and another 63 probationary employees who were terminated in February. “Today’s reduction in force reflects the Department of Education’s commitment to efficiency, accountability, and ensuring that resources are...

Trump Admin finds Maine in violation of Civil Rights Law for allowing men in women’s sports

By  Breccan F. Thies | The Federalist The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services notified the state of Maine that it is violating Title IX civil rights law by persisting in allowing males in female sports. The letter sent to the office of Gov. Janet Mills, D-Maine, as well as the state’s attorney general office, states that Maine violated the law by continuing to allow sex-based discrimination in school programs and activities that receive federal dollars. “Maine Democrats continue to play chicken with hundreds of millions of dollars in federal funding and the future of girls’ sports in Maine is at stake,” Republican state Rep. Laurel Libby told The Federalist. “Nearly 70% of Democrats agree that biological males should not be allowed to compete against girls. As a result of...
