SPRINGFIELD, OH - Haitian migrants are reportedly self-deporting from Springfield, Ohio, and fleeing to sanctuary jurisdictions such as Chicago, Illinois, and New York City, New York.

Springfield, a city of 50,000 that lies between Columbus and Dayton, garnered national attention months ago when President-elect Donald Trump and Vice President-elect JD Vance noted that the community had been inundated with thousands of Haitian migrants as a result of President Joe Biden’s immigration policies.

Many of the 10,000 to 20,000 Haitian migrants who arrived in Springfield over the last few years are in the United States on Temporary Protected Status (TPS), a quasi-amnesty program. Others were awarded parole after being released into the United States at the southern border.

As Breitbart News reported in September, the arrival of thousands of Haitians has driven up housing costs in Springfield, created more welfare dependency, and coincided with a surge in car crashes that police and firefighters must respond to.

With Trump and Vance’s election victory this month, Haitian migrants have told CBS News and The Guardian that they plan to flee to sanctuary jurisdictions like Chicago and New York City.

CHICAGO, IL - In Denver, where “New to Country” students jumped by nearly 5,000 last year, school board members are vowing to fight President-elect Donald Trump’s plan to deport illegal immigrants.

Denver Public School board member Scott Esserman told those who attended a Nov. 7 work session that it’s the “responsibility” of public school officials to shield families in the country illegally from federal immigration officials, KMGH reports.

“If you are a student who is undocumented or a family who is undocumented, we will take care of you,” Esserman said. “That is our responsibility; we’re here to do that. I think it’s important that you hear that.”

Esserman detailed how the district absorbed 4,763 New to Country students who enrolled during the 2023-24 school year, with state lawmakers approving an additional $24 million statewide to compensate schools for the influx.

The 4,763 students dwindled to 3,941 by the end of the 2023-24 school year, and another 20% dropped off before the start of 2024-25 in September. Click here to read more.

 

Enoch Burke, a schoolteacher at Wilson’s Hospital School in Ireland, lost his job and is now sitting in an Irish jail for refusing to compromise his biblical beliefs. That’s what it looks like when you value your faith in God more than the ways of the world.

The Anglican-affiliated school put Burke on leave in 2022 “for refusing to call a boy by the pronouns ‘they/them.’” The boy was—presumably—a singular entity. They/them are plural pronouns. Burke could refuse to call the confused lad they/them on the rock-solid argument that it violates the rules of grammar. Left unchecked, such violations will render the language incoherent. 

Burke promptly returned to his classroom to teach “despite administrators getting a court injunction to stop him from coming on campus.”

The next thing you know, Burke was arrested. He defended himself in court saying, “I am here today because I said I would not call a boy a girl. Transgenderism is against my Christian belief. It is contrary to the scriptures, contrary to the ethos of the Church of Ireland and of my school.” Click here to read more.

 

Parents have slammed Netflix's new animated film for 'normalizing' divorce which that believe is not appropriate for children.

Spellbound is an hour and 49 minute flick starring Rachel Zegler, Nicole Kidman, Javier Bardem, John Lithgow, Jenifer Lewis and Jordan Fisher.

As the film starts, tenacious teen princess Ellian (voiced Zegler) is desperately seeking a cure for the mysterious spell that has transformed her parents, Queen Ellsmere (Kidman) and King Solon (Bardem). 

To make matters worse, she must hide the whole mess from the oblivious citizens of Lumbria.

When the secret gets out, and panic spreads throughout the kingdom, Ellian is forced on a dangerous quest to undo the curse.

But even if she succeeds, she soon learns that her family may never go back to the way it once was. Click here to read more.

 

KANSAS CITY, MO - Four in 10 Americans are actively doing more good deeds before the end of 2024, says a new survey of 2,000 Americans.

It revealed that 43% are using the end of the year to boost the amount of giving this year, increasing their good deeds, volunteering more, or donating.

Commissioned by Avocado Green Mattress and conducted by Talker Research ahead of Giving Tuesday, the poll revealed younger generations reported doing more good throughout the year than older generations reported.

59% of Gen Z and millennial respondents agreed that they are doing more good as we approach 2025, to make up for the rest of the year, compared to 37% of Gen X and baby boomers agreeing.

Of the Gen X and baby boomers surveyed, 47% said they did as much good as they wanted to within their community this year.

Results also revealed that one-fifth (19%) of younger generations gave themselves an “A” for the amount of good they’ve done so far in 2024 — versus 10% of older respondents. Click here to read more.

Mayor wants to raise Chicago’s rental tax to 20%

While Mayor Brandon Johnson wants to raise what’s often called the “cloud tax,” the charge in fact applies to a broad range of rented products.

Johnson proposes increasing Chicago’s Personal Property Lease Tax to 20%, up from 15%, a move that a majority of aldermen said in a letter dated Nov. 10 they won’t support.

The tax applies to all personal property rented within Chicago city limits and rented outside the city but used within. That includes tangible assets like construction equipment and intangible goods like digital software services.

The city’s municipal code defines taxable personal property broadly as “any and all property other than real property,” with real property generally being real estate, including land and permanent structures. Click here to read more.

New Dem Congressman Suggests America Is Just As Bad As Iran

An incoming Democrat congressman repeatedly refused to say whether he considered the Islamic Republic of Iran an enemy of the United States during a CNN interview.

New Jersey Democratic Rep.-elect Adam Hamawy, a U.S. Army veteran, observant Muslim, and outspoken critic of Israel, won his race last Tuesday in the state’s deep-blue 12th Congressional District.

Appearing on CNN’s The Situation Room, Hamawy was repeatedly pressed by co-host Pamela Brown about his views on the Iranian regime after calling for the United States to end all military funding to Israel.

“Do you see Iran as the adversary?” Brown asked.

“We pushed them into a fight,” Hamawy insisted. “I think we both have to step back and ask: Is this helping either one of us?” Click here to read more.

 

United Airlines attempted hijacker is twice-deported illegal immigrant from Honduras, says DHS

Immigration officials said the man who tried to hijack a United Airlines flight Monday and claimed to have a bomb is a Honduran national who has been deported twice.

The Department of Homeland Security said Rony Alexander Gomez-Alberto, 34, crossed into Texas in 2011 and into New Mexico in 2014, but was quickly caught and removed both times.

That changed when Mr. Gomez-Alberto hopped the border into California in 2019. A judge allowed him to be released into the country as his immigration case played out in court, Homeland Security said. Click here to read more.

 

Surprise House passage of veterans bill sparks ‘trickery’ accusation

The House floor is frozen as Republicans and Democrats trade accusations about a controversial veterans bill that unexpectedly passed by voice vote Wednesday afternoon.

Republicans say Democrats simply neglected to ask for a roll-call vote, allowing the Take Care of America’s Veterans Act to immediately move to the Senate.

But a top Democrat accused GOP leaders of “trickery” in passing the bill, which had previously been pulled from the floor back in July due to bipartisan opposition.

A controversial provision in the bill would expand benefits for some individuals by paying for it with cuts to some future disability claims — something Democrats have largely opposed. Click here to read more.

Before and after: A look at Whitmer’s legacy

By most metrics, Michiganders have fared poorly under Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s policies. From the economy to education, the state has experienced significant declines in economic growth and education while seeing energy prices, gas taxes, and car insurance costs increase at higher rates than in neighboring states.

Whitmer took office in January 2019. The state increased its poverty rate from 13% in 2019, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, to 13.4% in 2024, with 1.3 million living below the poverty line.

The state has acknowledged this weak performance. “Michigan’s poverty rate was 13.4 percent in 2024, not statistically different from the 13.5 percent reported in 2023,” the Michigan Center for Data and Analytics reported in 2025. “During this time, the national poverty rate experienced a statistically significant decline, from 12.5 percent in 2023 to 12.1 percent in 2024. In 2024, the poverty rate in the United States, unlike Michigan, appears to have dropped below levels in 2019 prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.” Click here to read more.


 

We can’t wait for a blackout to fix Michigan’s power problem

What happened the last time you flipped a light switch? The lights came on, right?

One of the electricity grid managers responsible for keeping the lights on has an urgent message: Current and future demand for electricity will eclipse our ability to generate power. This could lead to “catastrophic failure.” Michigan policymakers should take note.

PJM is the country’s oldest and largest regional transmission organization. It coordinates the movement of electricity for 67 million people across 13 states and the District of Columbia. Most of Michigan is served by a different regional grid operator, but PJM’s warning illustrates the problem facing electric grids across the country.

Getting electricity to your home involves many actors, including generators, regulators and utilities. It also involves a complex system of power plants, transmission lines and storage. Click here to read more.

ACLU files lawsuit to prevent voter-approved girls’ sports initiative from becoming law

ACLU-WA and Pacifica Law Group filed a lawsuit to prevent IL-638 from going into effect. Voters approved the initiative last week by 11 points.

If the law is not struck down or put on hold by a judge, it will go into effect Dec. 3. The measure will mean all girls who want to play on a team designated for girls only must prove their sex assigned at birth, as part of a routine sports physical, via reproductive anatomy, genetic makeup, or normal endogenously produced testosterone levels.

“Every girl in Washington state deserves a safe place to play sports,” Diane Bedwell, co-chair of No Hate in WA State, said election night. Click here to read more.

 

Islamist Pilots Pose ‘Insider Threat,’ Warn Security Experts

When the Federal Aviation Administration reinforced cockpit doors after the 9/11 hijackings, it turned flight decks into fortresses to lock out terrorists. But what if a terrorist is already inside?

That question has new urgency following the harrowing Sept. 30 attack aboard a FlyDubai flight in which a Muslim extremist (Islamist) pilot was forcefully stopped by a heroic pilot and brave passengers from crashing a plane bound for Israel.

Former aviation security officials say the FAA needs to reassess threats inside cockpits and the measures intended to counter them. They say this review is especially urgent because the agency has made insider threats to the cockpit more likely by recently forcing airlines to add a secondary barrier to the cockpit in the form of a metal gate on new planes.

Communist Getaways On Whose Dime? What Democratic Socialists Must Hand Over

Florida Republican Attorney General James Uthmeier issued a subpoena to the Democratic Socialists of America on Tuesday, demanding records as his office investigates whether the group accepted money or other support from foreign adversaries, including Cuba and China.

Uthmeier said the inquiry focuses on foreign contributions tied to DSA delegations and travel fundraising, as well as whether the organization complied with Florida’s fundraising laws. The subpoena was issued under Florida’s Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act.

“Floridians who give to organizations operating in our state have a right to know where that money comes from, and how it is used,” Uthmeier said in a video. Click here to read more.

Some ways new Michigan leadership can encourage more housing

Demand for housing in Michigan has outstripped supply and led to higher prices. The solution to this is simple: Build more. But it is difficult because of government and market obstacles.

And despite massive government subsidies for more apartments, housing construction has barely budged for years. And we don’t build nearly as much as we did even in the 1990s.

The government isn’t particularly good at knowing how much or what types of housing needs to be built. But the market is good at it. It is unfortunate that so many rules and regulations have arisen that make it effectively illegal even to build much of the housing people in Michigan are currently living in.

Judge denies motion to dismiss charges against Lindsay Clancy

The judge in the Lindsay Clancy case on Monday denied three motions that were argued last week.

Clancy is the Duxbury, Massachusetts, woman accused of killing her three children. Her trial ended in a hung jury in September.

Judge William Sullivan denied Clancy’s motion to dismiss the case against her on double-jeopardy grounds.

The judge found there was a “manifest necessity” for the mistrial because the jury remained deadlocked after extensive deliberations. He said questioning the holdout juror about his doubts or the substance of deliberations risked intruding into jury deliberations and coercing a verdict. Click here to read more.

Pritzker could unlock over $2 billion for Illinois students by opting into federal tax credit program

Illinois taxpayers could direct more than $2 billion in donated money to students in the state if Gov. J.B. Pritzker opts Illinois into the Federal Scholarship Tax Credit program.

The program, also known as the Education Freedom Tax Credit, provides a 1:1 tax credit for qualified donations to scholarship-granting organizations. Students in both public and private schools can use the money for education expenses such as tutoring, services for students with disabilities, tuition or school fees and books or supplies.

The U.S. Treasury Department recently confirmed that married taxpayers filing jointly can get the tax credit for up to $3,400 annually in donations while individual filers can get the credit for up to $1,700 annually.

An analysis from the Democrats for Education Reform says it’s plausible that 30% of eligible Illinois taxpayers could donate the full allowed amount. That could raise $2,087,575,860 for students. Click here to read more.

 

New Details Suggest Joe Biden’s Mental Collapse Was Even Worse Than Previously Known

Former President Joe Biden reportedly forgot that longtime Senate colleague Bob Dole had died and, on another occasion, appeared to believe his late son Beau was still alive, according to an updated edition of Original Sin, the book by Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson detailing Biden’s decline.

Biden reportedly forgot Dole’s death despite delivering “a nationally televised, roughly eighteen-minute eulogy for him at the Washington National Cathedral in December 2021.”

“On another occasion, Biden seemed to think his son Beau, who died in 2015, was still alive and fighting cancer,” the authors write.

The updated edition includes new reporting that was not included in the book’s original May 2025 release. Click here to read more.

 

Erika Kirk’s Message For Dave Chappelle After His Chilling Remark About Charlie’s Assassination

Erika Kirk has posted a response to Dave Chappelle’s viral comments about her husband’s assassination.

“To see leftist podcasters, comedians, and commentators laugh about political assassination as though it’s entertainment and the destruction of a human life is a punchline, is beyond disgusting,” the grieving widow shared on X.

“My husband, Charlie Kirk, was killed in an act of political violence, something our two children and I will live with every day for the rest of our lives. A culture that laughs at assassination is one of profound moral decay. It threatens the very foundation of our country and the principles that hold our democracy together.”

“You do not have to agree with someone’s politics to recognize the value of their life. This should not be so hard,” Kirk continued. Click here to read more.
