Gabbard Targets Impeachment Origins With DOJ Criminal Referral

By John Solomon and Misty Severi | Just The News "ODNI can confirm a criminal referral was sent to DOJ related to one or more former employees of the Intelligence Community and their role in the 2019 impeachment of President Trump," an ODNI spokesperson told Just The News. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard on Wednesday referred the 2019 Ukraine impeachment whistleblower against Donald Trump, as well as the former intelligence community inspector general, for criminal investigation by the Justice Department, officials told Just The News.  The criminal referrals were sent to the Justice Department just four days after Gabbard declassified intelligence that the CIA analyst who filed against Trump that prompted the impeachment had misled the inves...

Pro Life Groups Push DOJ To To Back State Authority On Abortion Drugs

By Maisey Jefferson | The Federalist Dozens of pro-life groups sent a letter to U.S. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche on Monday urging him to protect women and babies from deadly chemical abortion and “reverse the DOJ’s harmful stance of siding with the abortion drug industry.” The 78 signees, led by Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America, noted that “pro-life states cannot meaningfully enforce their laws when FDA is siding with mail-order abortionists and DOJ is siding with abortion drug manufacturers.” Under the Biden administration, the FDA removed common-sense restrictions around mifepristone, such as requiring an in-person doctor’s visit before obtaining a prescription. The administration also ultimately leveraged the Covid-19 pan...

Federal Immigration Law Remains Untested Against Sanctuary Policies

By Just the News Contributor | Just the News DOJ has recently signaled interest in using the law – § 1324 – more aggressively. But as of early 2026, no prosecution of a sheriff or comparable official for detainer noncompliance has gone forward. A federal law on the books makes it a crime to harbor or transport an illegal alien – punishable by up to a decade in prison. But the Justice Department has never used the law against the local officials and organizations most visibly defying federal immigration enforcement, despite years of escalating conflict over “sanctuary” policies. Across the country, cities, counties and states have adopted measures that limit cooperation with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Under so-called "sanctuary" policies, local law enforceme...

DOJ Targets ActBlue Allegations As Election Integrity Concerns Grow

By Scott McClallen | Townhall Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche suggested that the Department of Justice is investigating ActBlue after a New York Times report said that ActBlue might have lied to Congress about vetting foreign donations.  Blanche told TV show host Jesse Waters: "That's a priority of this administration and this DOJ. It's something that a lot of people have been worried about it for a very long time. You can rest assured that it includes the Department of Justice and it includes me." https://twitter.com/EricLDaugh/status/2039864164244492298?s=20 READ THE FULL ARTICLE AT TOWNHALL

Federal Judge Rejects DOJ Challenge to Colorado Sanctuary Laws

By: The Associated Press | Denver7 The lawsuit claimed the state and its most populous city passed “sanctuary laws” violating the Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution. DENVER (AP) — A federal judge on Tuesday threw out a U.S. Department of Justice lawsuit accusing Colorado and Denver of interfering with the enforcement of immigration laws. The lawsuit claimed the state and its most populous city passed “sanctuary laws” violating the Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution. At issue were four state laws and two Denver laws that limit the use of resources for immigration enforcement and protect the rights and personal information of immigrants. U.S. District Judge Gordon P. Gallagher said the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in a 1997 case that the fede...

Vance Leads Push To Crack Down On $250 Billion In Federal Fraud

By Breccan F. Thies | The Federalist The task force has a wide range of activity that it considers fraud. The Trump administration’s efforts to attack government fraud are beginning in earnest, with a memo directing the first steps for the President’s Task Force to Eliminate Fraud, which the government says accounts for $250 billion in losses every year. “Every year, hardworking Americans pay taxes to fund a vast benefits system for citizens in need. These benefits programs are laudable and are a testament to the generosity of the American people,” the memo to task force members from Vice President J.D. Vance and Federal Trade Commission Chairman (FTC) Andrew N. Ferguson, who serves as the task force’s vice chair, states. “Unfortunately, these programs have b...

Nexstar Tegna Merger Could Reshape Denver Journalism And Cut Off Local Voices

By Nicole Vap | The Colorado Sun Combining newsleaders 9News and Fox31 already has triggered a lawsuit and concerned experts — and not just because of what might happen to Kyle Clark. 9News started its run as the top-rated TV station in the Denver television market back in the late-1970s, and for decades each newscast ended with video of regular people holding up their index fingers to remind viewers (and competitors) who was No. 1. The tradition fizzled out in the early 2000s, but current viewers might have noticed a new ending to the 9News newscast in the past few days, one that spells out a monumental change to the station and the Denver television market. A new copyright statement now flashes across the screen at the end of 9News broadcasts, marking the station’s...

Multiple FBI Counterintelligence Probes Targeted Trump Allies Over Nearly A Decade

By: Staff | Commentary, Revolver News We all watched as the Biden regime used federal law enforcement as a political weapon against American citizens. But nobody was targeted and harassed more than President Trump, both while he was a private citizen and the President of the United States. The bizarre and creepy investigations into his campaign and his allies went way, way beyond any normal oversight and crossed into North Korean territory. And now a new report is breaking the internet by revealing more juicy details on just how far the Deep State went to stop President Trump. According to this report, which was reviewed by investigators and members of Congress, the FBI ran several counterintelligence operations over nearly a decade targeting Trump and people on his te...

Nearly 100 Cartel Figures Handed Over to US After Terror Designation By Trump Administration

By Chris Nesi | New York Post Mexico has quietly shipped nearly 100 suspected cartel drug traffickers to the US to stand trial after President Trump branded the groups foreign terrorist organizations last year — and pressured the Mexican government to cooperate. The suspects include the brother of Nemesio “El Mencho” Oseguera Cervantes — the brutal Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG) leader who was killed by the Mexican army on Sunday. The Justice Department said many of the 92 defendants released to the Americans had US extradition requests that were not honored during the Biden administration. “As President Trump has made clear, cartels are terrorist groups, and this Department of Justice is devoted to destroying cartels and transnati...

Colorado firm Zynex forfeits nearly $100M as former executives face federal charges

By Shaina Cole | Contributing Writer, Rocky Mountain Voice An Englewood medical device company has agreed to pay millions and walk away from nearly 100 million dollars in unpaid claims after a federal investigation into its TRICARE billing practices. This week, the U.S. Department of Justice announced that Zynex, Inc. entered into a criminal Non-Prosecution Agreement. Prosecutors said the company submitted claims for medical supplies “in quantities that exceeded physician orders” and, in some instances, were “not medically necessary.” At the same time, a federal grand jury indictment charging former CEO Thomas Sandgaard and former Chief Operating Officer Anna Lucsok was unsealed. The company secured a deal. Its former executives now face criminal charges ...
