Democratic Socialists Unveil Platform Targeting Presidency Supreme Court and Free Markets

By: Skye Graham | The Federalist DSA candidates are currently surging in America, winning major elections across the country.

The Democratic Socialists of America is a far-left organization that appeals to the struggle of the working class while pushing far-left candidates. The organization has recently unveiled a new platform that would destroy the American system and radically remake it. DSA candidates are currently surging in America, winning major elections across the country.

Former HHS Official Says Hundreds of Thousands of Migrant Children Remain Unaccounted For

By Romas P.S. Moore | Center for Immigration Studies New information revealing the scale of the Biden administration’s shockingly negligent handling of unaccompanied alien children (UACs) was divulged by former senior Health and Human Services (HHS) appointee John Fabbricatore in a presentation at the Heritage Foundation last week. Roughly 540,000 unaccompanied minors were apprehended after crossing illegally during the Biden administration. About 448,000 were released to sponsors. According to one Department of Homeland Security investigation, 233,000 were subsequently unaccounted for, with the government uncertain of their whereabouts. Fabbricatore said that HHS did not know the whereabouts of 291,000 children it had released from custody. Fabbricatore help...

Colorado ICE Detention Capacity Set to Nearly Double Under New Federal Contract

By: Nico Brambila | Colorado Politics The federal government has signed a five-year contract with private prison company GEO Group that will effectively double Colorado’s immigration detention capacity to about 2,700 beds. Signed July 9, the contract comes a year after the Trump administration told Colorado’s congressional delegation it planned to reopen the shuttered Hudson Correctional Facility as an immigration detention center. The deal is worth up to $528.6 million, federal contracting records show. Located about 30 miles northeast of Denver in Weld County, the Hudson Correctional Facility is a medium-security prison that closed a decade ago. The prison is operated by the GEO Group, while the Highlands REIT Inc. — a real estate investment firm — owns it....

Colorado College Awards Credit for Progressive Activism Internships

By Mike Krause | Complete Colorado COLORADO SPRINGS—Colorado College is putting a price tag on political activism — or rather, waiving it for its own students — by offering academic credit to undergraduates who spend the summer, among other offerings, working to “shut down immigration detention centers.” The Colorado Springs-based private liberal arts school’s “Social Action Institute” runs a summer internship pairing students with left-of-center advocacy groups from June 11 through July 28. One of the three tracks offered lets students assist attorneys representing immigration detainees while simultaneously doing “advocacy and organizing work” toward closing the facilities where those same clients are held.  Students earn .25 credits towards graduation fo...

Trump Team Launches Major Investigation Into Foreign Labor Visa Fraud

By: Hannah Bates | The Federalist The Trump administration started a major investigation into H-1B and PERM foreign labor visas, the Labor Department’s Inspector General Anthony P. D’Esposito announced Wednesday. The investigation aims to take the “most aggressive action against foreign labor fraud by an Inspector General this administration” to further President Trump’s goal to end foreign violence on American soil and return jobs to the American people, D’Esposito told Fox Business. D’Esposito, who is leading the investigation, stated that the department has already begun “issu[ing] dozens of subpoenas.” He also noted that there are “whistleblowers talking about some of the biggest companies” who have abused H1-B and PERM (Permanent Labor Certification) vis...

Davis Blasts Supreme Court Birthright Ruling Calling it a Betrayal of the Constitution

By Mike Davis | Commentary, Fox News Roberts and Barrett joined three liberal justices to block Trump's executive order under the 14th Amendment. The Supreme Court just delivered its most disastrous ruling in generations in Trump v. Barbara. Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Amy Coney Barrett joined the three liberal justices to block President Donald Trump's executive order and hand over birthright citizenship to the children of tens of millions of illegal aliens and birth tourists from China and other enemy nations. The majority ruled that the 14th Amendment, which was passed after the Civil War to give former slaves equal rights, mandates citizenship to nearly anyone born on U.S. soil, even if they entered illegally, even if they’re a foreigner who hates...

Nick Shirley’s message to Colorado: Follow the money. Knock on the doors.

By Jen Schumann | Rocky Mountain Voice Nick Shirley spent Saturday night walking the Freedom Fest audience through the questions that have taken him from hotels near Denver International Airport to empty daycare centers in Minnesota and apartment complexes in Aurora. Interviewed by Jeff Hunt, co-host of the Jeff and Bill Show on Denver's 710 KNUS, Shirley spent less time talking about what he uncovered than how he uncovered it. Colorado was one of the first places he looked Long before a Minnesota daycare investigation made him nationally known, Shirley found himself in Colorado after repeatedly hearing migrants at the southern border mention the same destination. Denver. He came to look.  "You guys are from Latin America? It's cold in Denver," he remembered asking....

Supreme Court Has Spoken But Constitutional Debate is Far From Over on Birthright Citizenship

By: John C. Eastman | Commentary. The Federalist Lincoln believed self-government requires citizens and their representatives to continue reasoning together about the meaning of the Constitution, even after courts have spoken. The Supreme Court has spoken. Now what? That question has confronted the nation before. In 1857, the Supreme Court believed it had settled one of the most consequential constitutional controversies in American history. In Dred Scott v. Sandford, Chief Justice Roger Taney declared that persons of African descent could never become citizens of the United States and that Congress lacked authority to prohibit slavery in the territories. Many believed the court had spoken the final constitutional word. Abraham Lincoln disagreed. His admi...

High Court Blocks Trump Plan To Restrict Birthright Citizenship

By: Jacob Wheeler | The Daily Wire "The Framers of the Fourteenth Amendment extended that promise to 'every free-born person in this land,'" Roberts wrote. The U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday permanently blocked President Donald Trump’s executive order seeking to restrict birthright citizenship, dealing a significant blow to his immigration agenda and preventing a sweeping overhaul of who qualifies for U.S. citizenship. In a landmark ruling authored by Chief Justice John Roberts, the Supreme Court held that children born in the United States to parents unlawfully or temporarily present are “subject to the jurisdiction” of the United States and are citizens at birth under the Fourteenth Amendment’s Citizenship Clause. “Citizenship, then and now, was the right ...
