In Portland, Sec. Noem will not allow Antifa domestic terrorists to slow down DHS law enforcement from removing the WORST OF THE WORST.

If you come to our country illegally and break our laws, we will hunt you down, arrest you, deport you, and you will never return.

The Trump Effect

Someone who used to work with Katie Porter sent me this clip from a train-wreck interview with her and said, “Now imagine what she’s like when there aren’t cameras around.”

If entitled Democrats would care this much about solving the homelessness on our streets, the homes still in ashes or the gas prices crushing our families. But no, throw a tantrum on TV because you do not like the question. Katie Porter is just another unhinged Democrat who would complete Gavin Newsom’s destruction of our beautiful state.

Nebraska: Bellevue police arrested a 31-year-old man they say rammed into a police cruiser, injuring one officer.

Police were called to Baker's Supermarket off S. Galvin Road Monday around 2 p.m. A store employee told police that Johnathon Burnham was suspected of stealing alcohol.

Investigators said Burnham tried to drive away, reversed and rammed into a police cruiser. The officer went to the hospital with minor injuries and has since been released.

Police said Burnham led officers on a chase into Omaha and back into Bellevue. Police executed a vehicle containment maneuver that ended the chase at Lincoln Road and Saint Andrews Road.

Officers booked Burnham into the Sarpy County jail on multiple charges, including willful reckless driving and attempted assault on a law enforcement officer with a motor vehicle.

Please join us in sending prayers and, or positive thoughts for the officer's recovery🙏🏻

Trump’s federal takeover of DC led crime incidents to drop and arrests to increase

BREAKING: Today we are announcing the arrest of  29-year-old Jonathan Rinderknecht on a criminal complaint charging him with maliciously starting what became the Palisades Fire in January.

The complaint alleges that Rinderknecht's started a fire in Pacific Palisades on New Year's Day -- a blaze that eventually turned into one of the most destructive fires in Los Angeles history, causing death and widespread destruction.

Among the evidence that was collected from his digital devices was an image he generated on ChatGPT depicting a burning city.

While we cannot undo the damage and destruction that was done, we hope his arrest and the charges against him bring some measure of justice to the victims of this horrific tragedy.

Rinderknecht's initial appearance is scheduled for today at 1:30 p.m. EDT in U.S. District Court in Orlando. Rinderknecht is presumed innocent until proven guilty.
