The protest-to-riot pipeline: How leftist networks mobilized and funded LA unrest

By Hudson Crozier | Daily Caller Well-funded activists and a coordinated social media campaign helped spark the pro-illegal migrant protests on Friday that descended into days of rioting in Los Angeles. Left-wing groups posted calls to action with a location to gather on Friday in unison after the arrest of a local Service Employees International Union (SEIU) leader on Friday. The subsequent uprising echoed scenes of the Black Lives Matter riots of 2020, which brought activists such as professional “legal observers” into the streets during a wave of protests that led to fires, looting, vandalism and deaths across the country as the organization’s leaders enriched themselves. Protests continued in a coordinated fashion through Monday, with some unident...

Antiquities Act rebalanced: DOJ says President Trump has authority to cancel national monument designations

By Matthew Brown | Associated Press via Denver Gazette BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) — Lawyers for President Donald Trump's administration say he has the authority to abolish national monuments meant to protect historical and archaeological sites across broad landscapes, including two in California created by his predecessor at the request of Native American tribes. Colorado has nine national monuments, which include Canyons of the Ancients National Monument, Chimney Rock National Monument, Colorado National Monument, Browns Canyon National Monument, Camp Hale-Continental Divide National Monument, Dinosaur National Monument, Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument, Hovenweep National Monument, and Yucca House National Monument. A Justice Department legal opinion released Tuesday disavowed...

99.8% of job growth under Trump was private sector—Biden’s includes 25% government jobs

By Thomas Stevenson | Post Millennial Only around 75% of jobs added under Biden's last two years in office were added to the private sector. Under President Donald Trump's first few months in office during his second term, 99.8 percent of all job growth was in the private sector, in comparison to around 75 percent in the last two years of the Biden administration. In a press release, the White House touted the jobs numbers, saying, "Since President Trump took office, 99.8% of job gains have been in the private sector. During the final two years of the Biden Administration, one in four jobs created were in government," or 25 percent of job growth.  The jobs report for the month of May saw 139,000 jobs added to the economy, surpassing expectations from the Dow Jones as some have ...

HHS terminating $750M for Moderna’s mRNA-based bird flu vaccines amid safety concerns

By Alec Schemmel | Fox News The decision follows HHS's removal of COVID vaccines from federal vaccine recommendations for children and pregnant women President Donald Trump's Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is terminating awards totaling more than $750 million dollars that were provided to pharmaceutical manufacturer Moderna to help facilitate its production of mRNA-based bird flu vaccines.  During President Joe Biden's final week in office, his administration awarded $590 million to Moderna to help speed up its production of mRNA-based vaccines. The $590 million award followed a separate $176 million award Biden gave to Moderna earlier last year for mRNA vaccine technology. Messenger RNA vaccines are a newer type of vaccine technology, which w...

“Failure to Warn”: Senate report uncovers vaccine risk cover-up under Biden

By Julia Varnier | The National News Desk (TNND) — A new report from the Senate Homeland Security Committee accuses federal health agencies of failing to adequately warn the public about potential side effects of the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines, particularly the risk of myocarditis in young men. The report suggests that the Biden administration downplayed these risks to avoid increasing vaccine hesitancy. Dr. Jordan Vaughn, President of the Microvascular Research Foundation, testified on Capitol Hill Wednesday, during the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations' first hearing about the negative side effects of the COVID-19 vaccine, criticizing the decision by public health officials in 2021 not to issue a Health Alert Network message when increased risks from the COVID-19 vaccine be...

Trump’s VA slashes massive Biden-era backlog of veteran claims

By Hudson Crozier | Daily Caller The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is making record-breaking progress in processing a backlog of veteran disability claims that mounted under former President Joe Biden, the agency told the Daily Caller News Foundation. The VA brought unresolved claims down from 264,717 to 198,378 — or by approximately 25% — since President Donald Trump returned to office, the VA told the DCNF. Trump’s VA has also hit the highest daily and monthly processing rates in the agency’s history while reversing a 24% increase in the backlog that occurred under Biden, the VA said in a statement. “Under President Trump, VA’s claims processing productivity is the highest it has ever been, and we will continue working overtime on behalf of Veterans until the backlog is at...

How the Biden FBI let an ISIS acolyte slip right past them

By Eireann Van Natta | Daily Caller A political agenda combined with a lack of information on the New Orleans terrorist likely culminated in Shamsud-Din Jabbar escaping the FBI’s radar, former agents told the Caller. The terrorist who allegedly plowed a truck into a crowd on New Years pledged allegiance to ISIS, reportedly possessed an ISIS flag, and even traveled to Egypt — yet no action was taken by the FBI for months. Jabbar was identified by authorities as the driver of the Ford pickup truck that rammed through a crowd on Bourbon Street in New Orleans last Wednesday morning, killing 15 people. He was subsequently killed by police in a shootout. READ THE FULL STORY AT THE DAILY CALLER

Biden admin working to effectively ban cigarettes in 11th hour proposal a ‘gift’ to cartels, expert says

By Emma Colton  | Fox News The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is moving forward with a regulatory rule in the final days of the Biden administration that would effectively ban cigarettes currently on the market in favor of products with lower nicotine levels, which could end up boosting business for cartels operating on the black market, an expert tells Fox News Digital. "Biden's ban is a gift with a bow and balloons to organized crime cartels with it, whether it's cartels, Chinese organized crime, or Russian mafia. It's going to keep America smoking, and it's going to make the streets more violent," Rich Marianos, former assistant director of the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the current chair of the Tobacco Law Enforcement...

Speaker Johnson orders entire Biden team to preserve and retain records, documents

By Matthew Boyle | Breitbart House Speaker Mike Johnson on Tuesday ordered the entire administration of President Joe Biden to preserve all records and communications in the waning days of the outgoing Democrat administration as former President Donald Trump’s team prepares to take over. Johnson, Breitbart News has learned exclusively, has sent letters to all 18 federal Departments ordering them to retain and preserve documents. This could become an explosive storyline if outgoing Biden administration officials attempt to delete or destroy documents that shed light on some of the radical policies they pursued or scandals with regard to censorship or other major storylines of the past four years, such as the deadly withdrawal from Afghanistan or the wide open border. If anyone is caug...
