Virginia lost a Legend this weekend with the passing of Martinsville Sheriff Steve Draper.
"Sheriff Draper’s service to Martinsville began in 1973, when he first joined the Martinsville Sheriff’s Office. What began as a career in public service became a lifetime of dedication to this office, this community, and the people he was honored to serve.
In 1993, he ran for the Office of Sheriff and was elected by the citizens of Martinsville. He took office in 1994 and went on to serve as Sheriff for more than three decades, becoming known as the longest-serving Sheriff in the Commonwealth of Virginia. His extraordinary tenure reflected not only his devotion to public service, but also the tremendous trust the citizens of Martinsville placed in him throughout the years.
For more than half a century, Sheriff Draper dedicated his life to this community. He witnessed generations grow, worked alongside generations of employees, and served countless citizens throughout his career. To many, he was the Sheriff they had known for most, if not all, of their lives.
To the men and women of the Martinsville Sheriff’s Office, he was more than our Sheriff. He was a leader, mentor, colleague, and friend. His presence was a constant within this office, and his guidance, character, and commitment helped shape the Martinsville Sheriff’s Office into what it is today."
Rest Easy Brother. Prayers for his family of blue and blood.🙏🏻

Our Kentucky State Police work hard every day to keep Kentuckians safe, and Trooper Blaine Miller showed that commitment and helped save the lives of four family members after a bad car crash on I-65. His bravery and quick action made a difference, and I was proud to honor him.

🚨Police officers Zullo, Miller, Cari, and Spaulding were serving their small community of East Haven, Connecticut.
After Obama was elected (and threw open our borders), illegal immigrants started flooding into town. These four officers discovered thousands of these illegal immigrants were using forged documents to obtain license plates, fake car insurance cards, and even fake driver’s licenses.
So these officers did their jobs—enforcing the law and making hundreds of arrests.
Every single person arrested for their involvement in this crime ring was an illegal immigrant — including dozens of suspects with rap sheets a mile long.
So Obama’s DOJ showed up—not to thank these four officers for their hard work in breaking up this crime ring and getting dangerous criminals off the streets...
...the Obama DOJ accused them of racism and launched a political witch hunt, charging all four men with federal crimes for doing their jobs.
Not only that, they launched a vicious smear campaign in the media, painting the officers as hateful monsters.
They were sent to prison.
They lost everything.
Now they're telling their stories—and seeking justice: A pardon from President Trump.
President Trump should pardon the East Haven Four – not as an act of mercy, but as an act of justice.
A pardon cannot undo the harm caused by the Obama DOJ's political persecution—but it can redeem them in the eyes of the law and restore their good names.

Vice President JD Vance on the WHFraudTF's crackdown on fraud in the trucking industry:
"We know that trucking is one of the best sources of employment for non college educated men. It was bad for people's jobs, but it also made our streets and our highways a lot less safe."

GAVIN NEWSOM WANTS TO BE PRESIDENT, and California lawmakers are moving a bill toward his desk that would add TWO Islamic holidays to the state’s official holiday list after the Assembly passed it by an insane 64 TO 1 vote.
AB 2017 would recognize Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha as state holidays and allow public schools to close for them under specified agreements. It also allows schools to hold exercises celebrating the meaning and significance of the Islamic holidays.
And California lawmakers are barely even pretending this is controversial.
SIXTY-FOUR TO ONE.
The bill is now moving through the Senate, putting Newsom closer to a decision that could follow him straight onto the national stage as he positions himself for 2028.
California voters have already seen what Gavin Newsom does with power.
The rest of America should be watching VERY closely.

UPDATE: As of this evening, recovery operations have been completed for a 46-year-old male near Crystal Rapids along the Colorado River. The Coconino County Medical Examiner's Office is currently onsite. There is no additional information to share at this…
GRAND CANYON UPDATE: Two people are dead and about 15 remain missing following major flash flooding in Grand Canyon National Park over the weekend, according to park officials.
The National Park Service said the body of a 46-year-old man was recovered Sunday evening near Crystal Rapids on the Colorado River. A second body has since been recovered.
Search, evacuation and response efforts continue as crews work to account for people who may have been in Bright Angel Canyon and the Phantom Ranch area when flooding hit Saturday afternoon.
Officials are asking anyone with information about hikers or backpackers who were in the area, including along the North Kaibab Trail, at Bright Angel Campground or in “the Box” north of Phantom Ranch, to contact the National Park Service.
The number of people believed to be missing could change as officials continue accounting for visitors. The storm moved through the area Saturday at 2:30 in the afternoon.
PHOTO: Remnants of stone bridge pylons remain along Bright Angel Creek following a flash flood that destroyed the footbridge on August 29. The flooding caused significant damage to infrastructure throughout the canyon.

Please, praying for the Scott County sheriff's deputy who was seriously injured in the line of duty Saturday night.🙏🏻
A Scott County Indiana sheriff's deputy was airlifted to a Kentucky hospital after suffering serious injuries in a crash while pursuing a reckless motorcyclist who fled from an attempted traffic stop.

NEW: The Florida Bar has rejected a request to investigate DHS General Counsel James Percival for his social media posts criticizing liberal federal judges for their rulings against DHS.
The bar writes that it: “does not investigate or prosecute sitting officers appointed under the U.S. Constitution while they are in office”, because doing so would “encroach on the authority of the federal government concerning these officials.”

The Virginia State Police mourns the passing of retired Superintendent Colonel William F. Corvello, who passed away the evening of Aug. 28, 2026, surrounded by family and loved ones.
Colonel Corvello lived a life dedicated to service. He enlisted in the United States Marine Corps in 1951, serving in Korea with the 1st Marine Division, 7th Marine Regiment. Following his military service, he began what would become a remarkable 37-year career with the Virginia State Police in August 1955.
After graduating with the 28th Basic Session in March 1956, Colonel Corvello served as a trooper and steadily rose through the ranks of the Department. His career took him across the Commonwealth and into numerous leadership positions before he was appointed Superintendent of the Virginia State Police in March 1990. He led the Department until his retirement in August 1992, exactly 37 years after first joining VSP.
His commitment to public service did not end with his retirement. Colonel Corvello later answered the call to serve as Chief of Police for the City of Newport News and twice as Interim Chief of Police for the City of Portsmouth, continuing to lend his experience and leadership to Virginia’s law enforcement community.
