The Monroe Canyon Fire saw more large fire growth yesterday with the fire pushing spots across Bear Valley Road and towards Highway 24. The 24 is a priority holding feature and crews fired off the road to keep the main fire in check.

The fire is now 55,642 acres and 7% contained. Crews will continue to hold Highway 24, with possibly more tactical firing Ops later today. Relative humidities are still sitting in the single digits with temps in the high 80s.

Thanks to the subscriber who shared these views of the Fire. On the Northern side of the fire, activity is still in very steep and rugged ground, and resources are working to build and hold containment lines in more advantageous terrain. Red Flag Warnings are once again forecast in Utah today.

The Hotshot Wake Up

Earlier today, Officers observed a white truck at 5th and Wall being operated recklessly.  Officers followed the truck and found that the truck had been reported stolen. A pursuit was initiated due to the driver failing to yield. 

Due to the reckless nature, the pursuit was terminated. 

The driver left the DLTA area and entered the Newton Area where he was involved in a traffic collision. He was subsequently arrested at the scene and transported to a local hospital due to a complaint of injury.

After treatment, he will be booked into the City Jail. The driver of the other vehicle was treated at scene by LAFD paramedics and did not sustain any major injuries.

BREAKING: A person was shot and killed this morning after trying to get onto Davis-Monthan AFB.

We’re told, “A civilian was shot and fatally injured by a member of the 355th Security Forces Squadron when the individual attempted to illegally gain access to Davis-Monthan Air Force Base at approximately 2:30 a.m.
 
The individual, a non-military civilian, failed to stop and identify themselves at the base’s main gate on Craycroft Road and was reported to be driving erratically. The suspect then crashed into the deployed vehicle barrier and reversed the vehicle. Defenders from the 355 Security Forces Squadron initiated their escalation of force protocol, employing their weapon to stop the suspect.
 
‘We certainly regret the loss of life that occurred early this morning,’ said Col Jose Cabrera, 355 Wing commander. ‘Our Defenders have a very difficult job and acted in accordance with their training and policy to ensure the security of the installation and safety of our Airmen.’
 
The incident is currently under investigation. The Air Force Office of Special Investigations Detachment 217 is the lead investigative agency.”

I was just informed that our Country’s “Jobs Numbers” are being produced by a Biden Appointee, Dr. Erika McEntarfer, the Commissioner of Labor Statistics, who faked the Jobs Numbers before the Election to try and boost Kamala’s chances of Victory. This is the same Bureau of Labor Statistics that overstated the Jobs Growth in March 2024 by approximately 818,000 and, then again, right before the 2024 Presidential Election, in August and September, by 112,000. These were Records — No one can be that wrong? We need accurate Jobs Numbers. I have directed my Team to fire this Biden Political Appointee, IMMEDIATELY. She will be replaced with someone much more competent and qualified. Important numbers like this must be fair and accurate, they can’t be manipulated for political purposes. McEntarfer said there were only 73,000 Jobs added (a shock!) but, more importantly, that a major mistake was made by them, 258,000 Jobs downward, in the prior two months. Similar things happened in the first part of the year, always to the negative. The Economy is BOOMING under “TRUMP” despite a Fed that also plays games, this time with Interest Rates, where they lowered them twice, and substantially, just before the Presidential Election, I assume in the hopes of getting “Kamala” elected – How did that work out? Jerome “Too Late” Powell should also be put “out to pasture.” Thank you for your attention to this matter!

BREAKING: A tragic shooting Friday morning shook the heart of Anaconda, Montana, where four people were reported killed at the Owl Bar on 3rd Street.

The alleged gunman, believed to be armed with an AR-15-style rifle, sparked a rapid and heavy response from law enforcement and a flood of reactions from stunned residents.

“I heard he killed four at the Owl Bar,” one person messaged. “Seven state and local police cars are circling.” Multiple witnesses and local chatter confirmed law enforcement locked down parts of the town while they attempted to locate and contain the shooter. Eyewitnesses reported sirens, street closures, and police surrounding a residence where the individual was believed to be hiding.

According to one source, “Police have the man in his house and are trying to de-escalate the situation.” Another added, “Scanner traffic says the shooter is headed to Philipsburg.”

If you are in the area:
• Do not approach police perimeters
• Avoid the vicinity of 3rd Street and Ash
• Report any relevant information to local authorities immediately

We will update this story as new information becomes available.

UPDATE: https://nbcmontana.com/news/local/casualties-reported-after-active-shooter-situation-in-anaconda

“One dead cop”…the only disgusting here is you.

It is despicable that you would use the funeral of a man who gave his life in service to his community, to try and dunk on people paying their respects.

But I guess grifters gonna grift…SMH

Candace’s advice to President Trump.

History made, again.

The numbers don’t lie—this is the most secure the border has ever been. President Donald J. Trump didn’t just manage the crisis—he obliterated it. No more excuses. No more releases. We’ve put the cartels on defense and taken our border back.

In July:

- Lowest Nationwide Encounters Ever: 24,630—down 2.4% from June and ~ 90% lower than the monthly average under the last administration.

-Lowest Border Patrol Apprehensions Nationwide: 6,177—shattering June’s all-time low.

-Lowest Southwest Border Apprehensions: 4,598—nearly 500 fewer than the daily average under the last administration, which averaged 5,110 apprehensions per day from Feb 2021–Dec 2024.

 -Lowest Daily Apprehension Average: Just 148 per day—that’s lower than the average rate of 152 apprehensions every two hours under Biden last July.

-Lowest Single-Day Apprehensions in History: 88 at the Southwest Border, 116 nationwide on July 20.
