DOJ cracks down on noncitizen voter rolls under Trump’s election integrity order

By Ashley Oliver , David Spunt | Fox News Civil Rights Division seeks voter registration data with emphasis on identifying noncitizens on rolls Attorney General Pam Bondi has directed Department of Justice (DOJ) officials to probe election practices throughout the country as part of the Trump administration's efforts to crack down on federal election laws. The DOJ's Civil Rights Division is largely leading the effort, which has involved seeking information from states about their election practices and voter registration lists, sometimes known as "voter rolls," and placing an emphasis on identifying any noncitizens on them.  "Election integrity starts with clean voter rolls. That's the foundation for secure elections," a DOJ source told Fox News. "There's been a culture of...

President Trump’s DOJ launches nationwide voter roll investigation ahead of midterm elections

By Jim Hoft | The Gateway Pundit President Trump’s Department of Justice has officially launched a sweeping nationwide investigation into bloated and corrupted voter rolls across the United States. According to Fox News’ Aishah Hasnie, the effort comes directly from a March executive order signed by President Trump, tasking Attorney General Pam Bondi and the DOJ with coordinating with state attorneys general to investigate and prosecute illegal voter registrations — including felons, dead voters, and foreign nationals. On March 25, 2025, President Trump signed Executive Order 14248, titled “Preserving and Protecting the Integrity of American Elections.” The order directed Attorney General Pam Bondi to coordinate with state attorneys general and election officials to i...

TOTH: Trump Finds His Perfect Wingman in Susie Wiles

By Michael Toth | Commentary, The Hill Like President Trump or not, his second term is going much better for him than his first was. This time eight years ago, his presidency was in disarray, reeling from the Russiagate probe and the Senate’s rejection of ObamaCare repeal. That’s night and day from the current administration’s early victories from the tax-and-spending megabill, immigration and universal injunctions. Even European leaders and Ivy League universities are now heeding Trump’s demands. The president’s approval ratings are 5 percentage points higher now than at the same time in his first term, according to the RealClearPolitics aggregate poll. Pundits have credited White House chief of staff Susie Wiles for the new administration’s winning streak. But less has been w...

Trump ‘Very Unhappy’ With Putin, Signals Ukraine Policy Pivot

By Nicholas Ballasy | Just the News Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Saturday described his most recent conversation with President Donald Trump as the "most productive" to date. "Regarding the conversation with the president of the United States, which took place a day earlier, it was probably the best conversation we have had during this whole time, the most productive," Zelenskiy said in a video address, according to Reuters. Trump said he was "very unhappy" after his recent conversation with Russian President Putin. Trump also said Putin does not want to work toward a ceasefire deal. He added that Ukraine is "being hit pretty hard" and will likely need Patriot missiles for defense. Russia shot down four Ukrainian drones on Saturday, according to the city's ma...

House passes ‘one big, beautiful bill’ in massive win for Trump

By Daniel Chaitin | Daily Wire In a significant victory for President Donald Trump, the Republican-led House early Thursday morning passed what the president has championed as the “one big, beautiful bill,” with enough Republican holdouts coming around to support the comprehensive tax and budget package. Trump met with House Republicans two days in a row as they hashed out last-minute changes to win over members from high-tax blue states who wanted a higher state and local tax (SALT) deduction cap and fiscal hawks who demanded more spending cuts. The final vote, a close 215-214, followed back-to-back all-night sessions in the Rules Committee and on the House floor. “We planned and we worked and we locked arms together as a team. And we have delivered this against all odds,” House ...

Gabel: Why I have no beef with President Trump’s beef tariffs

By Rachel Gabel | Commentary, Colorado Politics President Donald Trump’s tariffs should be on the radar of every agriculture producer in the U.S. Our country is not only the top producer of beef at 12.1 million metric tons annually, but also the top importer of beef, consuming 12.7 metric tons annually. There are hundreds of other ag commodities that rely on trade, of course, but beef is on my radar. One of the countries at the top of the beef tariff list is Australia, which is one of the countries that imports no American beef, a result of a 2003 restriction following a North American outbreak of bovine spongiform encephalopathy, or mad cow disease. Our country, however, imports $4.8 billion in Australian beef annually, making the U.S. Australia’s largest beef market. Japan, Mexi...

Appeals court rejects Trump bid to pause federal funding freeze ruling

By Jack Birle | Washington Examiner A federal appeals court rejected the Trump administration‘s efforts to pause federal aid through an Office of Management and Budget memorandum Wednesday, upholding a lower court’s ruling. The Trump administration attempted to pursue a blanket pause of federal aid disbursements pending a review of the various spending items in January, but the order was blocked by a federal circuit court after several lawsuits, including one by more than a dozen state attorneys general. Despite the Trump administration rescinding the memo, the court still pushed forward with haulting the blanket pause. READ THE FULL STORY AT WASHINGTON EXAMINER

President Trump calls Colorado Capitol portrait ‘distorted,’ blames Gov. Polis

By Heather Willard | Fox 31 News DENVER (KDVR) — President Donald Trump took to Truth Social on Sunday to disparage a portrait of himself that has hung in the Colorado Capitol since 2019.

Trump’s victory lap at DOJ

By Julie Kelly | Substack On March 14, 2024, I was in the media room at the federal courthouse in Fort Pierce, Florida. District Court Judge Aileen Cannon at the time was presiding over a hearing on two motions filed by defense lawyers representing Donald Trump and his co-defendants seeking to dismiss the classified documents indictment handed down by then Special Counsel Jack Smith in June 2023. My report on the proceedings is here. Trump’s defense lawyers, Todd Blanche and Emil Bove, were in the courtroom that day representing the president. They were simultaneously defending Trump in the case brought by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg; it was a fraught time as the president also faced a separate federal criminal indictment in Washington related to January 6. (Those proc...
