State investigators in New Mexico have finally begun combing through the sprawling ranch once owned by disgraced financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein — a move that should have happened many years ago. On Monday, agents from the New Mexico Department of Justice joined local sheriff’s deputies to search the remote high-desert property known as Zorro Ranch. The 30,000-square-foot compound sits on thousands of acres outside Santa Fe and has long been cited by Epstein victims as a site of abuse and trafficking. Yet despite those claims, the property was never thoroughly examined after Epstein’s 2019 arrest and death…

Just three days after announcing his campaign for Congress in Nevada’s 2nd Congressional District, retired Air Force Lt. Col. David Flippo has quickly emerged as a rallying point for the MAGA and populist wing of the Republican Party, earning a wave of endorsements from major grassroots organizations and conservative leaders nationwide. In just three days, Flippo secured endorsements from Turning Point Action, Moms for America, the Oil and Gas Workers Association, and Veterans for America First, along with support from prominent conservative figures including Congressman Paul Gosar, Congressman Trent Kelly, former Congressman Allen West, and Sheriff Joe Arpaio. The rapid…
Former Nevada State Senator James Settelmeyer has entered the Republican primary for Nevada’s 2nd Congressional District, but his record in Carson City reads less like that of a conservative and more like that of a Mitt Romney-style Republican who repeatedly sided with Democrats when it mattered most. Settelmeyer, a rancher from Gardnerville and longtime fixture in Nevada politics, is already attempting to position himself as the “local” candidate in the race. What his campaign announcement does not mention is a legislative voting history packed with support for policies pushed by Democrats, unions, and progressive activists. One of the most alarming…
The Justice Department has escalated its election-integrity campaign, filing lawsuits against Utah, Oklahoma, Kentucky, West Virginia, and New Jersey after officials in those states declined to provide full voter-registration records requested under the Civil Rights Act of 1960. The law authorizes federal inspection of election records to ensure compliance with voting protections. Attorney General Pam Bondi said the lawsuits aim to restore public trust in elections by confirming voter rolls are accurate and free of ineligible registrations. Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon argued some state leaders “prefer litigation over transparency,” maintaining the federal government has a legal duty to…
Paramount Skydance’s agreement to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery — valued at roughly $110 billion — has ended a high-stakes bidding war with Netflix and reshaped the media landscape. The streaming giant declined to match the higher offer, saying the transaction had become “no longer financially attractive.” The merger consolidates major brands including HBO and CNN under a traditional studio structure rather than a tech-platform expansion model many analysts expected. Industry observers say the outcome reflects a broader shift toward profitability and scale discipline after years of aggressive streaming expansion. But beyond business strategy, the failed bid has revived long-running political…
Degenerate Minnesota state Rep. Leigh Finke, a mentally ill transgender, is facing sharp criticism after suggesting laws requiring age verification on adult websites could block minors from accessing material she described as “educational” for LGBTQ youth. Finke made the comments during a Minnesota House Commerce Finance and Policy Committee hearing on legislation introduced by Ben Bakeberg. The proposal, H.F. 1434, would require websites in which at least 25% of pages contain pornography to verify users are 18 or older before granting access. While acknowledging the bill’s goal of protecting minors from harmful material, Finke argued attorneys general could use such…
Donald Trump signed a proclamation designating Feb. 22 as “National Angel Family Day” during a White House ceremony Monday attended by relatives of people killed in crimes committed by individuals in the country illegally. The event brought together several so-called “angel families,” a term used by advocacy groups to describe relatives of victims of such crimes. Participants shared personal accounts and urged stronger border enforcement policies. “We’re gathered here today for a truly solemn occasion,” Trump said in remarks from the White House, describing the families’ losses as preventable and linking the deaths to immigration policies of the previous administration.…
World Liberty Financial, the digital-asset venture backed by the Trump family, said its flagship stablecoin demonstrated resilience this week after what the company described as a coordinated attempt to destabilize the asset and undermine confidence in the project. The token, USD1, briefly slipped below its one-dollar peg Monday before quickly returning to parity, according to market data tracked by CoinGecko. Stablecoins are engineered to maintain a fixed value against the U.S. dollar, making any temporary deviation a key stress test of underlying reserves and liquidity systems. World Liberty Financial — co-founded by Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump alongside partners…
A growing national movement for medical freedom is gaining momentum as state lawmakers consider rolling back long-standing school vaccine mandates — a push that restores parental authority and ends government coercion in family health decisions. Allies of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. have formed a coalition of more than a dozen advocacy groups aimed at repealing state laws requiring children to receive certain vaccinations before attending day care or public school. The Medical Freedom Act Coalition argues the issue is not opposition to medicine itself, but opposition to one-size-fits-all mandates imposed by government bureaucracies. “Ultimately, the…
Federal officials are emphasizing public safety and officer protection as the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) uses lawful investigative tools to address escalating tensions surrounding immigration enforcement operations. According to reporting confirmed by multiple technology companies, DHS has issued administrative subpoenas seeking identifying information connected to certain anonymous online accounts that track or publicize the locations of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) personnel. The requests — sent to major platforms including Google, Meta, Reddit, and Discord — are part of what officials describe as a broader effort to prevent harassment, interference, or potential violence directed at federal agents carrying…
