Masked leftist agitators vandalize Rep. Angela Rigas’ home over anti-illegal immigration bills
A large group of leftist agitators — including several wearing masks — converged on state Rep. Angela Rigas’ home Saturday in an apparent attempt to intimidate her over pieces of legislation they don’t like.
Rigas, R-Caledonia, an America First Republican and chair of the House Oversight Subcommittee on Weaponization of Government, posted several photos on social media, and shared other pictures and videos exclusively with The Midwesterner.
“Today, far left extremist protestors unlawfully trespassed on my property in an attempt to intimidate and harass me for co-sponsoring a package of bills aimed at cracking down on illegal immigration,” Rigas wrote on Facebook.
“When extremists don’t get their way, this is the kind of abhorrent behavior they resort to, and I will NOT cave to their insane demands. I will ALWAYS prioritize the safety of American citizens over dangerous illegal criminals!” Click here to read more.

Newsom Signs Law Allowing Abortion Drug to Be Distributed Anonymously and Nationally
When Notre Dame des Victoires Catholic school celebrated its 100th anniversary last year, a famous former student taped a video presentation in honor of that moment. This was California Gov. Gavin Newsom.
In a press release about its anniversary, the school said: “Located in the heart of downtown San Francisco, NDV remains dedicated to its mission of providing an academically rigorous Catholic education while fostering a deep appreciation of French language and culture, and also inspiring service to the local community.”
In his video, Newsom recalled the uniform he wore at this school, the haircut he had, and the prayer they said to start the school day.
“I’m honored to have my voice—the voice of so many others—in wishing all of you a very happy hundred years,” Newsom said. “Of course, it does feel maybe like a hundred years ago that my mom would dress me up in that little sailor outfit, had a perfect—I’m talking about perfect—bowl cut, like perfectly straight bowl-cut hair.” Click here to read more.

Concerning Air Traffic Controller Shortage Emerging, Transportation Secretary Says
U.S. airports reported more than 20 incidents of air traffic controller shortages on Saturday, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said, in the latest sign of the government shutdown’s impact.

The Trump administration has warned that flight disruptions will increase as controllers miss their first full paycheck on Tuesday.
