The San Rafael Police Department, California, sadly announced the death of retired Police Dog Ares. Ares was the first police dog to return to the ranks at SRPD after a decade-long hiatus of not having a K-9 program. He lives with retired Officer Melodia.

Great job by the Tarrant County Sheriff's Office, Texas.

Record-breaking Fentanyl seizure by TCSO with 350,000 M-30 Fentanyl pills taken off the streets! Deputies conducted interdiction operations and stopped a vehicle. During the stop, K-9 Armin was deployed to conduct a free-air sniff. He gave a positive alert for illegal drugs giving probable cause for deputies to further inspect the vehicle. That’s when they located 35 packages of counterfeit M-30 pills laced with Fentanyl hidden within the gas tank.

The total weight of the drugs seized was 43 kilograms with a street value of approximately $1.4 million. The driver of the vehicle was arrested and transported to the Tarrant County Jail.
Awesome job Deputy Littlejohn and K-9 Officer Armin!

Since 2019, ISP troopers have been involved in 140 crashes caused by drivers violating the Move Over Law.

Chicago: Shots fired at police hit a squad car 4 detained 23rd and Sacramento last night.

We've learned this was not a random shooting.

This was an attempted ambush of CPD.

We're told a 911 call came in requesting a CPD response at 23rd and Sacramento.

When CPD arrived, they drove past the address and a gang member stepped from the gangway to fire at Police.

A weapon was recovered, and four Latin Kings are in custody.

For everyone that is complaining about the stock market and blaming our President you obviously didn't care about your investments just 24 months ago when they were 20% LOWER than they were just on Friday April 4th. Ignorant and deranged people just need to blame something!

BREAKING: Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett just announced that over 50 countries have already reached out to begin negotiations following President Trump's new tariff policies:

"I got a report from the USDR last night that more than 50 countries have reached out to the President to begin a negotiation. But they're doing that because they understand that they bear a lot of the tariff."
