NEW: I asked Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) if he stands by his comment on the Senate floor last week that “nobody in the country respects ICE & Border Patrol”, and if he really believes that?

“ICE and Border Patrol, as I have said, need reform, I stand by that,” Schumer said.

“Do you believe that nobody respects them though?” I countered.

No response.

Earlier today in the Arabian Sea, U.S. Marines from the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit boarded M/V Blue Star III, a commercial ship suspected of attempting to transit to Iran in violation of the U.S. blockade of Iranian ports. U.S. forces released the vessel after conducting a search and confirming the ship’s voyage would not include an Iranian port call.

American forces continue to operate and enforce the blockade across the Middle East. So far, 39 vessels have been redirected to ensure compliance.

Praying for the civilian response officer who was shot in the line of duty this afternoon.🙏🏻

Texas: Fort Worth police flooded a neighborhood in North Fort Worth early Tuesday afternoon after officers reported a shots-fired incident.

Police chief Eddie Garcia said they are searching for a male suspect in the area, possibly on foot and possibly armed. 

Garcia said the civilian response unit (CRU) was responding to a burglary report on North Juliet Lane when a person across the street started shooting with a rifle, hitting a CRU officer in the eye.

CRU officers are not police police officers and are not armed. They respond to scenes to collect evidence and write police reports, tasks that a sworn police officer does not necessarily need to complete. They do not respond when a suspect is on the scene or likely to return, according to FWPD's website. 

When police officers responded, they exchanged gunfire with the suspect before he took off running to the west. Garcia said it was not clear if the suspect was hit.

The area around the Summerfield subdivision near Basswood Boulevard and North Riverside Drive is blocked off while police search for the suspect. Police are advising the public to avoid the area and anyone who is there should stay inside.

The CRU officer is at JPS Hospital, awake and talking. Fort Worth Mayor Mattie Parker confirmed to CBS News Texas' Jack Fink that he is "miraculously doing well."

Where Your Dues Are Going. The Receipts.
If you’re a law enforcement officer in California, especially a deputy in LA County, you need to understand where your union dues have actually been going for the last decade.

I’m a medically retired police officer. I’ve watched our profession degrade for years. Through The Resiliency Project, the nonprofit I founded, my team & I hear the stories every day from cops across the country. The damage & exhaustion is real. The betrayal is real.

For years I’ve said that nothing kills the spirit of a law enforcement officer more than betrayal. I ran for State Assembly in 2024 not because I had political ambition, but because our profession & state have declined so significantly that politics was the only avenue I had left to fight for what was right. My family left California. My friends left California. My wife & I stayed to raise our children here.

That campaign opened my eyes. I went through the endorsement process at multiple police unions & POAs. I sat across the table from the consultants & lobbyists, what insiders call the “Third House.” I saw the hometown rules. I saw how these organizations forecast electability, how alignments are brokered between special interest groups & how the entire system operates more like a business than a fair political system.

I’ve been attacked & had my character impugned by the very people & organizations I’ve spoken out against, because I’ve spoken truth to power. The truth is the only thing we have left in a world of deception.

“Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them.” — Ephesians 5:11

There are great police associations & unions doing right by their members. There are also unions whose own filings tell a story their members have never heard.

This post is not an indictment of any one person. It is an exposé on how establishment police unions historically operate, where we are today & how those choices have degraded our profession.
After my campaign I started a small business built to make positive change. That’s why I’m proud to serve as the spokesman for a union actually fighting for its members.

What you’re about to see is the result of six months of research into ALADS and PPOA, the two bargaining unions at LASD. Every dollar cited is in a public FPPC filing.

Verify everything yourself:
🔗 FPPC.ca.gov
🔗 Cal-Access.sos.ca.gov
🔗 PowerSearch.sos.ca.gov
🔗 LA County RRCC: rrcc.lacounty.gov/camp

Every claim sourced. The men & women of this profession deserve to know. The pipeline runs deeper than what you see in this video.
