NEWARK, NJ - What in the world are these mysterious drones that have been flying over New Jersey the past couple weeks? Or, at least, we believe they’re drones. Nobody has really gone up there to confirm, and no one has brought one down to take a look at these things. Instead, for some bizarre reason, we’ve just been letting them fly around up there, causing a ruckus in the news and most government officials to simply shrug their shoulders. Are they new government technology, drones from a foreign adversary, a hobbyist project, or are they UFOs and UAPs?

Let’s start with what might probably be the easiest explanation. Most officials who have looked into the matter have stated these drones are not a hobbyist project. Given the scale of these objects, the numbers of them, and the sophistication of the technology they seem to display, if this were to be some sort of side project by a drone enthusiast, then this particular person (or group) would have to be wealthy or, at least, very well-funded. Sure, I could purchase a good-quality commercial drone for a few hundred dollars, but that’s not what we’re talking about here. These particular drones appear to be about six feet in diameter and contain a technology that eludes radar detection and is making it difficult for officials to track. The couple times police helicopters have gone up to take a look, the drones have turned off their lights and have seemingly disappeared into the night sky. However, to this point, these craft have only been witnessed over New Jersey which indicates a local point of origin. Could this be a billionaire’s practical joke? Click here to read more.

 

LANSING, Mich - Democrats in Lansing on Wednesday rammed a raft of anti-gun measures through two separate House committees.

Collectively, House Bills 6183, 6184 and 6185 would eliminate the firearm industry’s civil liability protections. It would also allow civil actions against firearm industry members for “contributing to a public nuisance” by manufacturing and distributing products or failing to implement “reasonable controls.”

On Wednesday, the Michigan House Committee on Judiciary voted 8-5 along party lines in favor of the three measures. The measures are part of a series of anti-gun bills Lansing Democrats filed in their last days holding majorities in the House and Senate.

State Rep. Andrew Fink, R-Adams Township, and other Republicans opposed the push as an attack on the firearm industry and a way to hinder lawful gun ownership.

“This legislation effectively suggests that a manufacturer of a product that Michigan citizens have a constitutional right to use, keep, and own could be held liable for the proper functioning of said product,” Fink said in a statement. “This would be like a car manufacturer being sued for a vehicle being used to intentionally harm another individual. The driver should be responsible for that crime, not the manufacturer. In this case, if a firearm is used for the purpose of committing a crime, it appears to me that this legislation would allow the attorney general or citizen to file an injunction against the manufacturer.” Click here to read more.

 

DEL RIO, TX - The Biden administration is using its final weeks to haul a massive amount of border wall materials away from the southern border to be sold off in a government auction, an apparent effort to hinder President-elect Donald Trump’s effort to secure the border, The Daily Wire has learned.

Videos obtained exclusively by The Daily Wire from a U.S. Customs and Border Patrol agent show unused sections of the wall being hauled away on the back of flatbed trucks from a section of the border just south of Tucson, a hotspot for illegal crossings during the Biden administration. The agent estimates that up to half a mile per day of unused border wall is being moved.

“They are taking it from three stations: Nogales, Tucson, and Three Points,” the border patrol agent, who was granted anonymity to speak freely, told The Daily Wire. “The goal is to move all of it off the border before Christmas.” Click here to read more.

 

WASHINGTON D.C. - Twenty-six confidential human sources (CHS) cooperating with the FBI were in Washington, D.C. on Jan. 6, 2021, in connection to the Capitol riot, a report from the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) revealed Thursday.

The CHSs, who were not undercover employees, provided information to FBI “handling agents,” the report states. FBI field offices tasked three of the sources to “report on domestic terrorism subjects” in Washington, D.C. on Jan. 6.

The OIG noted that none of the CHSs were authorized to enter restricted areas — including the U.S. Capitol — or violate the law. Four sources, however, were inside the Capitol during the riot, and 13 entered a security perimeter around the building.

“None of the CHSs who entered the Capitol or a restricted area has been prosecuted to date,” the report states.

One CHS was reimbursed for travel on Jan. 6 and the inauguration, according to the report. The CHS was not tasked with attending the electoral certification, the OIG noted. Click here to read more.

 

OLYMPIA, Wash. — Washington state's governing body for high school athletics announced Tuesday it is considering forming a separate division for transgender athletes to compete in.

The Washington Interscholastic Activities Association (WIAA) currently allows high schoolers in the state to compete in sports based on gender identity. However, a proposed policy amendment would require athletic programs to be offered separately for a boys' division, a girls' division and an "open" division.

Any athletes who wish to compete based on their gender identity would be required to participate in the "open" division, according to the proposal. Eligibility for the "open" division would also include athletes "in the process of transition that have undertaken medical changes," the proposal says.

A separate proposed amendment would also require participation in girls' sports to be limited to students whose biological sex is female. The amendment, modeled after guidance in Alaska, acknowledges such a move may spark legal challenges due to some interpreting the policy as "discriminatory."

However, the language asserts the proposed change "emphasizes inclusivity" and still encourages transgender students to participate in athletics. Click here to read more.

No, keeping it real after hours tonight

Katie and I are both not feeling well so there will be no after hours show tonight.

News bias?

This morning, the Trump administration announced that one of the top MS 13 gang members was arrested on the East Coast of the United States. Fox News is the only network to lead with this during the 9 a.m. hour.  The other networks lead with old news.

NASHVILLE, TN - The final police report on Nashville’s deadly Covenant School shooting, released more than two years after the attack, claims the motive of the attack was “notoriety” and makes little mention of the shooter’s radical positions on gender, race, or religious animus.

While pages from the writings of the 28-year-old woman who murdered three children and three adults at The Covenant School in March 2023 demonstrate that she was fixated on gender ideology and “white privilege,” police say that she was primarily motivated by a desire for notoriety. Investigators said that neither her documented hatred of Christianity or affluent white people played a role in her targeting of The Covenant School, a Presbyterian school in a wealthy area of Nashville.

“Regarding why she selected The Covenant, many have speculated [the shooter] selected this location for racial, religious, or economic motives,” the report said. “It is certainly true she raged over these topics at times in her writings. But none of those motives impacted her decision to attack The Covenant.” Click here to read more.

 

WASHINGTON D.C. - A researcher who argued that infant mortality is higher for black newborns with white doctors because of racial bias omitted a variable from the paper that “undermines the narrative,” according to the researcher’s internal notes.

The study forms a keystone of the racial concordance field, which hypothesizes patients are better served by medical providers of the same race, and has served as a rationale for affirmative action. It faces new questions just as universities moveto defund their Diversity, Equity and Inclusion programs or face legal action.

The August 2020 study in the prestigious Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) concluded that the gap in mortality rates between black newborns and white newborns declines by 58% if the black newborns are under the care of black physicians. A possible driver of the phenomenon could include a “spontaneous bias” by white physicians toward the babies, the researchers wrote.

 

MARYSVILLE, Calif. — Marysville’s police chief called on state lawmakers to “wake up” after a convicted felon and sex offender killed a Marysville police officer last week while law enforcement cracked down on a suspected Northern California drug ring with ties to Mexico.

“We’re not going to stop giving up the fight to take (fentanyl) off our streets and make the community safer,” Police Chief Christian Sachs told reporters Monday. “And maybe I shouldn’t say this, but I’ll be completely transparent with you, this starts in our Legislature, and the broken system.”

Officer Osmar Rodarte, 30, was shot Wednesday morning while executing a search warrant at an Olivehurst home as part of a SWAT unit. He died soon after at Adventist Health and Rideout hospital in Marysville.

The search was part of a years-long effort by local, state and federal agencies investigatinga group of family members suspected of transporting potentially thousands of pounds of drugs from Mexico into California, supplying street-level dealers in Northern California, authorities said.

A Colorado bill would consider “deadnaming” or “misgendering” forms of “coercive control” in custody cases.

The bill’s summary says that “a court shall consider deadnaming, misgendering, or threatening to publish material related to an individual’s gender-affirming health-care services as types of coercive control. A court shall consider reports of coercive control when determining the allocation of parental responsibilities in accordance with the best interests of the child.”

“Coercive control” is defined in the bill as a “pattern of threatening, humiliating, or intimidating actions, including assaults or other abuse, that is used to harm, punish, or frighten an individual.” Coercive control includes anything that “takes away the individual’s liberty or freedom and strips away the individual’s sense of self, including the individual’s bodily integrity and human rights.”

The legislation notes that “deadnaming or misgendering” are considered means of coercive control and further states that no school dress codes may be based on gender. Click here to read more.

 

NEW JERSEY - A proposed ordinance in Summit, New Jersey has sparked backlash over concerns that it would effectively criminalize homelessness.

The proposal would fine or jail individuals for sleeping, camping, or storing personal items in public spaces, even though the city only reports a small unhoused population.

What we know:

Summit city officials are considering an ordinance that would ban sleeping, camping, or storing personal belongings in public spaces. The measure was introduced at a recent city council meeting. If passed, violators could face fines of up to $2,000 or up to 90 days in jail.

Although Summit has a reported unhoused population of around five individuals, the city has already formed a dedicated task force and allocated resources to address the issue.

The proposal follows a U.S. Supreme Court decision upholding an Oregon law that allows cities to ban homeless people from using blankets, pillows, or cardboard boxes for shelter. Click here to read more.

WASHINGTON D.C. - BlackRock CEO Larry Fink, historically a supporter of green energy initiatives, acknowledged that wind and solar alone “can’t reliably keep the lights on” without “major breakthroughs in storage” and wrote that it’s necessary to be “clear-eyed about our energy mix” in his annual chairman’s letter to investors on Monday.

Fink supported the transition to green energy in the past and heads BlackRock, the world’s largest asset management company, which has pushedfor Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance (ESG). Fink said in 2023 that he would no longer use the term ESG due to its political connotation, though he’s “not ashamed” of the term and believes in “conscious capitalism.” Fink praised nuclear power and raised doubts Monday regarding the reliability of solar and wind energy alone due to storage issues in his annual chairman’s letter. “We need energy pragmatism. That starts with fixing the slow, broken permitting processes in the U.S. and Europe. But it also means being clear-eyed about our energy mix,” Fink wrote in the letter. Click here to read more.

 

WASHINGTON — The most recent border crossing numbers from the U.S. government show the lowest monthly total ever recorded.

In March, the Border Patrol data shows that around 7,180 southwest border crossings were recorded.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials said it's a dramatic drop compared to the monthly average of 155,000 from the previous four years. Daily southwest border apprehensions also fell to around 230 per day, a number CBP officials said is one that the United States has never seen before.

In the Trump administrations report released Tuesday, CBP noted that the Biden administration experienced 5,100 crossings in a day.

CBP added that last month's border crossings in the southwest mark a "pivotal achievement in our nation’s border security efforts." Click here to read more.

 

SALT LAKE CITY - Utah is now the first state to ban fluoride in public drinking water, despite widespread opposition from dentists and national health organizations.

Fluoride in public drinking water has benefits and drawbacks. Positives include reduced tooth decay, especially in children, as it strengthens enamel and prevents cavities—supported by decades of public health data.

It’s cost-effective, benefiting communities broadly. Negatives involve potential overexposure, leading to dental fluorosis (mild tooth discoloration) or, in rare cases, skeletal issues.

Some argue it’s an ethical concern, mass-medicating without consent. While deemed safe by major health bodies like the CDC, debate persists over necessity and individual choice. Click here to read more.

 

ATHENS, Mich. – A tragic summer day in August of 2024 ended with the death of a three-year-old boy left strapped in a car seat in a hot SUV with the windows rolled up for over eight hours. His father, 36-year-old Chad Martin of Athens, has avoided immediate jail time so far.

Martin was sentenced Thursday, March 27th in Kalamazoo County Circuit Court to nine months in jail and three years of probation for the death of his son, who was discovered lifeless in the backseat of Martin’s vehicle on August 13, 2024 after temperatures outside of the vehicle had climbed above 80 degrees.

But in a controversial move, the Kalamazoo County Circuit Court judge delayed Martin’s jail time until a status hearing in December. According to WWMT-TV, the decision will hinge on Martin’s progress while on probation, leaving open the possibility that he may never serve a day behind bars. Click here to read more.

 

FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich. - As a home burned early Tuesday morning, sending deep black clouds of smoke into the sky, four Farmington Hills police officers kicked their way into the home to rescue 8 people from the inferno – putting their own lives at risk.

During a press conference Tuesday afternoon, Farmington Hills Police Chief John Piggot and Fire Chief John Unruh spoke about the fire and the bravery of the officers to rush in. Piggott said there's no doubt in his mind that their actions save people's lives.

"Failure to act is going to result in people dying and that's where you're proud that all the training and all their instincts went to this, like their instincts were to save lives. And, you know, when when you watch the video for the first time and you see the officer running up to that front door and without hesitation, kick the door and go straight in. And there wasn't any hesitation," PIggot said.

The 8 people rescued from inside the home are expected to be okay. Three of the four officers are hospitalized with breathing issues after inhaling the black smoke. Click here to read more.
