Watch: "All we're doing, frankly, is trying to make the situation a little bit more fair," says VP on redistricting.

"Democrats have gerrymandered their states really aggressively. We think there are opportunities to push back against that, and that's really all we're doing."

This is only a prediction, but if it is the strategy being used, it's GENIUS.

Governor Wes Moore of Maryland has asked, in a rather nasty and provocative tone, that I “walk the streets of Maryland” with him. I assume he is talking about out of control, crime ridden, Baltimore? As President, I would much prefer that he clean up this Crime disaster before I go there for a “walk.” Wes Moore’s record on Crime is a very bad one, unless he fudges his figures on crime like many of the other “Blue States” are doing. But if Wes Moore needs help, like Gavin Newscum did in L.A., I will send in the “troops,” which is being done in nearby DC, and quickly clean up the Crime. After only one week, there is NO CRIME AND NO MURDER IN DC! When it is like that in Baltimore, I will proudly “walk the streets” with the failing, because of Crime, Governor of Maryland. P.S. Baltimore is ranked the 4th WORST CITY IN THE NATION IN CRIME & MURDER. Stop talking and get to work, Wes. I’ll then see you on the streets!!! Also, I gave Wes Moore a lot of money to fix his demolished bridge. I will now have to rethink that decision??? Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! President DJT

BREAKING: Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson is now implying his people will rise up against “tyranny” via riots and unrest against President Trump’s administration if he sends troops to Chicago to lower the crime rate.

"Crime has dropped over 35% in the nation's capital in ten days because of what Donald J. Trump has done," says VP on Making D.C. Safe Again.

"It's not mission accomplished. When you make such big progress in a matter of a week and a half, I think you step on the gas."

VP JD Vance: "The President has been very clear. There are not going to be [American] boots on the ground in Ukraine."

Sergeant Michael D. Russell, Cleveland District Investigations, has retired from the Ohio State Highway Patrol after 35 years of service. Well done Brother.

Did Wes Moore, the Governor of Maryland, lie about getting a Bronze Star?

Under President Trump, we are securing expanded U.S. market access to the EU, increasing trade and investment, and unleashing the full potential of American industry to ALL markets. A tremendous win for the U.S. economy and the American worker. Promises made, promises kept.

Undersheriff Finley’s Life-Saving Actions

[Norman, OK] - Yesterday, in the parking lot of the Cleveland County Courthouse, Undersheriff Michael Finley’s quick response helped save a life.

Around 1:28 p.m., Cleveland County employees found a woman unresponsive in the driver’s seat of a vehicle with the engine running. Undersheriff Finley, who noticed the commotion and gathering of people, decided to investigate.

He rendered aid with multiple sternum rubs; however, the individual showed little response.

Undersheriff Finley administered three doses of Narcan before medical personnel arrived. Shortly after receiving the third Narcan dose, the woman later identified as Tiffany Swayngim, became responsive and was transported by EMS to Norman Regional HealthPlex.

The Cleveland County Sheriff’s Office commends Undersheriff Finley for his professionalism and swift action in a critical moment. His dedication reflects the mission of our office: to courageously protect and compassionately serve.

The Los Angeles Police Department’s Force Investigation Division is investigating an Officer-Involved Shooting that occurred in 77th Street Division.

On July 10, 2025, around 6:20 p.m., 77th Street Division Gang Enforcement Detail uniformed officers were in the area of Crenshaw Boulevard south of Hyde Park Boulevard when they observed a male suspect, later identified as 63-year-old James Tullous, exit a parked vehicle armed with a handgun. Tullous proceeded onto the sidewalk and became involved in a physical altercation with a male victim.

As officers exited their vehicle to intervene, Tullous fired one round from his handgun, and an Officer-Involved Shooting occurred. Tullous was struck by gunfire and fell to the ground. Officers rendered medical aid until the arrival of the Los Angeles Fire Department, who pronounced him deceased.

Force Investigation Division investigators determined that the encounter began with a verbal altercation, during which Tullous fired a round at the victim. The victim involved in the altercation before the OIS was not injured.

No officers or other community members were injured during this incident.

A semi-automatic handgun was recovered at the scene and booked as evidence.
