Tulsi Gabbard Declassifies Biden Admin Documents, Exposes Weaponization of Intelligence Against Americans

Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard’s task force, charged with carrying out President Donald Trump’s executive orders related to the intelligence community (IC), is interviewing “whistleblowers” who could expose Russian collusion hoaxers, analyzing previous election processes to investigate vulnerabilities, and more as part of the administration’s goal to maximize transparency.

The Director’s Initiatives Group (DIG), established by Gabbard in April, was launched with the mission of “rebuilding trust in the IC,” starting with “investigating weaponization, rooting out deep-seeded politicization, exposing unauthorized disclosures of classified intelligence, and declassifying information that serves a public interest.”

“The DIG is also leading assessments of IC structure, resourcing, and personnel to improve efficiency and eliminate wasteful spending,” Gabbard’s office said at the time. Click here to read more.

Meteorologists Say the National Weather Service Did Its Job in Texas

At least 27 people, including nine children, are dead in central Texas after flash floods struck suddenly on the morning of the Fourth of July holiday. After a storm in which a month’s worth of rain fell in some regions in just a few hours, officials say they rescued more than 850 people from the floods over Friday and Saturday. A number of people were still missing as of Saturday afternoon, including 27 young campers from a Christian girls’ camp on the banks of the Guadalupe River.

Some local and state officials have said that insufficient forecasts from the National Weather Service caught the region off guard. That claim has been amplified by pundits across social media, who say that cuts to the NWS and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, its parent organization, inevitably led to the failure in Texas.

But meteorologists who spoke to WIRED say that the NWS accurately predicted the risk of flooding in Texas and could not have foreseen the extreme severity of the storm. What’s more, they say that what the NWS did forecast this week underscores the need to sustain funding to the crucial agency. Click here to read more.

 

Illinois nurse shortage fix is blocked by unions

Special interests again succeeded in keeping Illinois one of the few states that has not joined the Nurse Licensure Compact – a proven solution to health care staffing challenges and greater freedom for nurses wanting to practice in Illinois.

Nurses need just one license to practice in any state that is a member of the compact. Illinois requires nurses to take a test in the state and obtain a license that only allows them to practice in Illinois – leaving patients with fewer options and longer waits, plus leaving nurses with fewer career options and heavier workloads.

House Bill 1706, sponsored by state Rep. Yolonda Morris, D-Chicago, a certified nurse assistant, would have added Illinois to the Nurse Licensure Compact. It failed to make it out of committee for a full House vote this past legislative session, facing opposition from Illinois nursing unions that see the compact as a threat to their power.

Joining the compact would help solve Illinois’ ongoing nurse shortage. The state has faced this problem for over a decade, in part because of high attrition rates in pre-nursing academic programs. The Health & Medicine Policy Research Group stated the COVID-19 pandemic intensified the situation, as nurses’ increased workload led to burnout, mental health strains and higher resignation rates.

Texas Pediatrician Fired After Saying ‘MAGA’ Flood Victims Got ‘What They Voted For’

The Texas pediatrician who mocked Trump voters after violent Texas floods, posting that victims deserve to “get what they voted for,” no longer works for her pediatric group.

Over the weekend, Dr. Christina B. Propst , who had been employed by Blue Fish Pediatrics, posted on Facebook in a now-deleted message that she wished for the safety only of people who didn’t vote for MAGA.

“May all visitors, children, non-MAGA voters and pets be safe and dry,” she posted under Facebook user name, Chris Tina. “Kerr County MAGA voted to gut FEMA. They deny climate change. May they get what they voted for. Bless their hearts.”

At least 80 people, including 28 children, have been declared dead from the raging flood that struck Central Texas on July 4. 10 girls from the all-girls Camp Mystic are still missing. “Two sisters, 13-year-old Blair and 11-year-old Brooke Harber, were killed in the Texas Hill Country floods and found with rosaries and their ‘hands locked together,’ their family said.” Newsweek reported.

Doctor saves Little League umpire’s life after he collapses during game

LOS ANGELES (KCAL/KCBS) - A doctor in the stands at a Little League baseball game helped resuscitate an umpire after he collapsed from a heart attack.

Little League umpire Jeff Hiserodt is still in a lot of pain as he stands on the baseball field in the Ladera Heights neighborhood where his heart stopped beating.

“I feel like I got hit with a baseball bat, and I lost the fight,” Hiserodt said. “I don’t think everybody gets to revisit the spot that they die.”\

The moment the umpire collapsed near home plate during a game was caught on camera. He was having a heart attack. Within seconds, his colleagues and kids surrounded him. He had no pulse, so they yelled out to the people in the bleachers for help.

Jen Poole, a palliative care doctor at Cedars-Sinai, was sitting in the stands when she heard the pleas for help. Resuscitating strangers isn’t exactly her specialty, but she rushed in to help anyway.

“The adrenaline’s going. Your heart’s going. You’re second guessing if you’re doing the right thing, but you just know you have to help,” Poole said. Click here to read more.

BREAKING: Charges Dropped Against Michigan Duck Rescue Founders After DNR Case Collapses

The legal battle between the Michigan Department of Natural Resources and the Michigan Duck Rescue and Sanctuary has come to an end. with all charges dismissed against the couple who run the operation.

Matthew and Teresa Lyson, founders of the Salem Township sanctuary, had faced six criminal charges each after state officials accused them of keeping and caring for waterfowl without proper permits. This week, the Washtenaw County Prosecutor’s Office dismissed the cases in their entirety, following months of public scrutiny and growing political pressure.

“This is great news,” Lyson told Keeping It Real. “All charges against me and Teresa are 100 percent gone. It’s a done deal, and we get to start new.”

Background of the Case

The Michigan Duck Rescue and Sanctuary has operated for nearly two decades, caring for injured or abandoned ducks, geese, and other waterfowl — many of which suffer from “angel wing,” a deformity often caused by people feeding them improper food. The Lysons say their work ...

School board bans clapping....seriously

ALPENA, Mich. — A new rule banning applause and other displays of emotion at Alpena Public Schools board meetings has sparked pushback from community members who say the policy infringes on their free speech rights.

The board recently adopted a policy prohibiting clapping, cheering, booing, or any demonstrations from audience members during meetings. Board President Eric Lawson said the restriction is meant to prevent disruptions and maintain order.

“We’re doing our best to show respect to you all and make sure you have adequate time for your comments,” Lawson said during a recent meeting. “Please show the board a little respect as well.”

Not everyone in attendance agreed. Several residents voiced frustration, including one woman who argued that clapping constitutes symbolic speech protected under the First Amendment.

“Clapping is a universal symbolic action that typically expresses approval,” she said. “Up until one week ago, clapping was a regular occurrence at these ...

Jocelyn Benson brags about stifling DOJ’s pursuit of election integrity

Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson made a special video to assure Michiganders she’ll never let anyone review her Qualified Voter File to ensure elections are as “secure and accurate” as she claims.

The video message centers on a request from the U.S. Department of Justice for information on Michigan’s bloated voter rolls and illegal votes cast in 2024, one of dozens of requests to states that align with President Donald Trump’s executive order “Preserving and Protecting the Integrity of American Elections.”

Benson is framing the July request, along with a DOJ lawsuit, as a “power grab” with nefarious intentions as she prepares to run her own campaign for governor in 2026, while preying on fears about government access to voters’ “sensitive personal data.”

“The United States Justice Department is trying to get me, Michigan’s chief election officer, to turn over your Social Security number, driver’s license number, and voting information,” Benson said in the video. “I told them they can’t have it.” Click here to read more.

 

‘Indoctrination’: MSU Forces Future Teachers To Take Class Rooted In Black Lives Matter

Students at Michigan State University hoping to become the educators of the next generation are forced to take a race-centered course that follows “the guiding principles of the Black Lives Matter” movement and requires students to read from a book condemning “whiteness.”

Course materials obtained by the young America’s Foundation group on MSU’s campus and shared with The Daily Wire show that one class for future teachers pushes leftist theories on race. The introductory three-credit class, “TE 101: Social Foundations of Justice and Equity in Education,” is required for all Secondary Education majors at MSU and is typically taken before their junior year. TE 101’s course description states that it emphasizes “racial justice, equity, and social identity markers.”

The syllabus for TE 101 states that the class is “committed to the Guiding Principles of the Black Lives Matter Movement, Learning for Justice’s Social Justice Standards, and the principles of the Abolitionist Teaching Network.” Click here to read more.

Nebraska’s cruel crackdown threatens vital care for adults with developmental disabilities

Injustice is lurking around the quiet corners of Lincoln, Nebraska. The Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) is threatening to strip away the proven and personalized care of adults with developmental disabilities, by dismantling the programs that gave them independence and hope.

For nearly two decades, Integrated Life Choices (ILC) has been a lifeline for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Founded in 2006 by Joshua Midgett and William Arrants, the organization was built upon one mission: To empower their clients to live independently and make a difference in their respective communities.

COO Justin Solomon explains ILC’s mission as “helping adults with developmental disabilities live in their community each and every day.” In practice, ILC operates facilities that are essentially group homes, where their adult clients live together with round-the-clock staff. Justin describes it as a sort of “adult foster care where someone with disability is living in a home with another person and they kind of share the life of that person and their family.” Click here to read more.

Court Rules that Minnesota Horse Teacher is Able to Continue Teaching in Important First Amendment Win

ARLINGTON, Va.—The United States District Court of Minnesota has granted victory to equine massage teacher Leda Mox of Becker, Minnesota in her case on whether teaching is protected under the First Amendment. The ruling follows a previous ruling where the court denied a motion to dismiss by the Commissioner of the Minnesota Office of Higher Education stating the “Commissioner has not provided (and could not appropriately provide at this stage) any evidence,” that the law requiring her to be licensed “advances at least important governmental interests and does not burden substantially more speech than is necessary.” Leda is represented by the Institute for Justice (IJ), a public interest law firm.

“This ruling is another victory for Leda, for teachers everywhere, and most importantly for the First Amendment,” said IJ Senior Attorney Jeffrey Redfern. “The right to free speech shall not be infringed. Teaching is speech, and is protected under the Constitution.” Click here to read more.

Whitmer whiffs at real auto jobs numbers, again

Gov. Gretchen Whitmer claimed that she’s secured 36,000 auto jobs through subsidies and private jobs announcements since 2019, but the data says otherwise.

In an Oct. 14 news release, Whitmer celebrated an announced investment from Big Three automaker Stellantis.

“Since I took office, we’ve worked across the aisle to win every possible auto project, securing more than 36,000 auto jobs. Thanks to partners like Stellantis and our massive network of auto suppliers, we will continue to dominate the auto industry and bring supply chains home even as we face national economic uncertainty. “We don’t care what you drive—gas, diesel, hybrid, or electric—as long as it’s made in Michigan. Together, let’s keep bringing manufacturing home, growing the middle class, and putting the world on wheels.” Click here to read more.

 

SNAP Beneficiaries Steal Groceries, Threaten Riots as Benefits Lapse

Left-wing TikTokers are shamelessly promoting rioting and stealing as the pause of food stamps, or the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), looms due to the government shutdown.

A man fuming over an apparent increase in loss prevention employees at Walmart took to social media to call on others to join him in holding down and fighting security to “help people steal.”

“It just became ‘Help People Steal’ November. It just became ‘Help People Live’ November,” the man ranted in a video. “People deserve to eat, I dont give a fuck about Walmart’s profit margins. I personally will hold back a security guard. I will fight back a security guard if they try to stop someone from stealing food they need to fucking live.” Click here to read more.

In Explosive Report, Virginia AG Exposes Failures of Soros-Funded Prosecutor

It’s no secret that billionaire George Soros has helped install rogue prosecutors in the Old Dominion, sending more than $1.1 million to elect Parisa Dehghani-Tafti in Arlington, more than $300,000 to Ramin Fatehi in Norfolk, and almost $750,000 to Steve Descano in Fairfax.

But a new report from Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares shows how one of those prosecutors has undermined Virginia’s justice system and failed to protect victims’ rights in Fairfax County.

In a devastating August 2025 investigative report, Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares detailed several of the so-called “reforms” pushed by Fairfax County Commonwealth’s Attorney Steve Descano. Click here to read more.

DeSantis directs H-1B visa crackdown, announces $33 million in DEI grants canceled or repurposed

TAMPA, Fla. – Gov. Ron DeSantis on Wednesday directed the Florida Board of Governors to end the use of H-1B work visas in the state university system, saying that the visas are being abused to hire foreign workers for jobs that should go to qualified Americans.

The governor announced the policy change alongside the results of a state audit revealing the cancellation or repurposing of millions of dollars in diversity, equity, and inclusion, or DEI-related, grants across Florida’s public universities.

DeSantis said that Florida institutions would no longer be permitted to use the H-1B visa program to hire specialized foreign labor. He argued that the practice undermines American workers and graduates. Click here to read more.
