Federal sweep flags issues in 44% of targeted Minneapolis-area immigration interviews

By Hannah Nightingale | The Post Millennial Officers found evidence of "fraud, non-compliance, or public safety or national security concerns in 275 cases—44 percent of cases interviewed." A recent sweeping investigation undertaken by multiple federal agencies in the Minnesota cities of Minneapolis and St Paul, as well as surrounding areas, in September has revealed that nearly 50 percent of immigrants interviewed as part of the sweep committed some form of immigration fraud.  The US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), in collaboration with US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the FBI, conducted Operation Twin Shield between September 19 and 28. The effort was described as "the first of its kind targeted surge of fraud detection and d...

Trump Team Backs Coal With $625M Plan to Secure Cheap Reliable Power

By Stephen Sorace | Fox Business Programs aim to modernize plants, bring cheaper power to rural communities and extend coal plant lifespans. The Trump administration announced on Monday a $625 million investment to boost America’s coal industry, a plan that aims to keep coal plants open, lower energy costs and enable the U.S. to win the global race for dominance in artificial intelligence. U.S. Energy Secretary Christopher Wright made the announcement of expanded programs to help the coal industry on FOX Business’ "Mornings with Maria," saying that the U.S. has "awesome coal reserves" that can be put to productive use. "We’re going to export more of that coal, we’re going to use it for American industry, particularly as we reindustrialize, and it’s going to continue to provide ...

Western Cattlemen Push Back on Federal Land Restrictions

By Carrie Stadheim | The Fence Post Several groups of cattle producers could be seen walking the halls of Congress and the U.S. Department of Agriculture in recent weeks. No, they weren’t lost. They were detailing some of the ways government prevents cattle producers from being profitable and identifying solutions that could help. Jack Payne, owner of Nevada Livestock Marketing, was one of five ranchers from western states to meet with U.S. Department of Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins to describe the drastically diminished cattle numbers on federal lands. Grazing is needed on rangelands to maintain plant and soil health, reduce fire danger and provide economic stability to communities, Payne said. Secretary Rollins posted on X (formerly Twitter) on Sept. 6, 2025, “Earl...

Trump closes commercial trucking loophole after deadly crashes involving illegal immigrant drivers

By Elizabeth Troutman Mitchell | The Daily Signal Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy announced a plan Friday to prevent illegal aliens from driving commercial trucks in the United States. “The process for issuing [commercial drivers’ licenses] is absolutely 100% broken,” Duffy said at a press conference. “It has become a threat to public safety, and it is a national emergency that requires action right. https://twitter.com/TheElizMitchell/status/1971572076030152982 The announcement comes after an illegal alien truck driver killed three people in a Florida traffic crash while making an illegal U-turn. He apparently was not able to understand the street signs. California had issued the commercial driver’s license. “The combination of a catastrophic failure of states t...

MSNBC’s attack on Tom Homan collapses under scrutiny

By Hans Mahncke | Commentary, The Federalist There is no evidence that Tom Homan agreed to anything improper, no evidence that he acted on behalf of anyone, and no evidence that he violated any law. After nearly a decade of hoaxes — from Russiagate to Ukraine, from impeachment sagas to the circus around Brett Kavanaugh — the American public has been conditioned to expect another “bombshell” headline every few months. Now, right on schedule, a new one has emerged. This time, the target is Tom Homan, former acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement and now the border security czar in the Trump administration. MSNBC’s Ken Dilanian and Carol Leonnig reported on Saturday that Homan had supposedly been ensnared in a sting operation run by the Biden-era Department ...

President Trump team outlines crackdown on left-wing NGOs with ties to violence after Kirk assassination

By Elizabeth Troutman Mitchell | The Daily Signal The Trump administration will only investigate left-wing groups with a provable tie to violence following the assassination of conservative leader Charlie Kirk, an administration official told The Daily Signal. The focus of investigations will be Antifa-like groups involved in the online conspiracy to assassinate Turning Point USA founder Kirk on Sept. 10, the source said. This comes after Vice President JD Vance and White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller on Monday discussed plans to “go after” leftist nongovernmental organizations due to Kirk’s killing. “We’re going to go after the NGO network that foments, facilitates, and engages in violence,” Vance said. “We are going to channel all of the anger that we hav...

JD Vance Urges Faith and Boldness in Tribute to Charlie Kirk

By Lorenzo Prieto | The Daily Signal During these dark hours after the death of Charlie Kirk, Americans need to “have faith” in the Lord and “be bold,” Vice President JD Vance said Monday while hosting a special episode of “The Charlie Kirk Show.” “On a podcast a couple of months back, Charlie was asked about how he’d want to be remembered if he died. His answer: ‘I want to be remembered for courage, for my faith. That would be the most important thing. The most important thing is my faith.’ And that was Charlie,” Vance said. “And in this dark moment for our country, I think that’s the greatest lesson any of us can take from Charlie. To have faith.” The vice president then explained that the best way to honor Kirk’s legacy is “to be bold in our pursuits,” as Kirk was in life. “...

Trump administration probes spending of Medicaid dollars on illegal immigrants in blue states

By AP News SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — The Trump administration is taking its immigration crackdown to the health care safety net, launching Medicaid spending probes in at least six Democratic-led states that provide comprehensive health coverage to poor and disabled immigrants living in the U.S. without permanent legal status. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services is scouring payments covering health care for immigrants without legal status to ensure there isn’t any waste, fraud or abuse, according to public records obtained by KFF Health News and The Associated Press. While acknowledging that states can bill the federal government for Medicaid emergency and pregnancy care for immigrants without legal status, federal officials have sent letters notifying state health agencies...

Public safety or politics? Mesa County sues Polis over sanctuary crackdown

By Jason Hopkins | Daily Caller One of Colorado’s biggest counties is taking on the state’s “unconstitutional” sanctuary law after it was used to crack down on a sheriff’s deputy who helped federal immigration authorities. The Board of Mesa County Commissioners is moving forward with its lawsuit against a Democrat-led sanctuary law that prohibits local law enforcement in Colorado from sharing personal information about a foreign national with federal immigration authorities, the Daily Caller News Foundation confirmed. The lawsuit was filed after state officials sued a Mesa County sheriff’s deputy for helping Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and effectively forced him out of the job. “The Constitution makes clear that immigration is a federal responsibility, not something ...
