They were all Sitting Ducks at Butler

Final Report on Secret Service Failures at Butler Was Released and the Agency Is Out of Excuses

Secret Service Missed 102 Radio Warnings From Local Law Enforcement Before Thomas Crooks Opened Fire

The Department of Homeland Security's Office of Inspector General spent nearly two years investigating the assassination attempt on President Trump. The report is a 64-page record of failure at every level.

Local law enforcement transmitted 102 radio warnings about an increasingly urgent search for a suspicious person. The Secret Service never heard them.

Not because the transmissions didn't happen. Because the Secret Service set up its communications room 257 yards away from local law enforcement, in a completely separate location, with no shared radio channel.

While police were broadcasting alerts, Secret Service agents were receiving only five phone calls and three text messages. By the time the warnings became urgent enough to cut through the bureaucratic wall, Thomas Crooks had already fired eight rounds.

The Green New Scam

Trump Revokes Obama/Biden “Green” Restrictions on Appliances in Big Win for Consumers

For years, the progressive left has been quietly waging war inside your home. Not with protests or picket signs, but with regulations — creeping, suffocating rules that dictate which stove you can cook on, which dryer you can tumble your clothes in, and which lightbulb you’re allowed to screw into your own lamp.

Washington bureaucrats who couldn’t manage a lemonade stand decided they knew better than you about how to run your household.

It started under Obama, accelerated under Biden, and if the green radicals had their way, your gas stove would already be in a landfill, and your dryer would need three cycles to finish a single load of towels.

But elections have consequences — and this time, the consequences are good news for every American who’s sick of the government treating their kitchen like a climate experiment.

The Obama and Biden administrations weaponized the Energy Policy and Conservation Act to impose ever-tighter efficiency mandates that drove up prices and stripped functionality from everyday appliances.

Biden went further in 2021 and 2024, gutting Trump’s original 2020 consumer protections by making safeguards non-binding and removing key procedural requirements.

Now Trump is back, and he’s not just restoring the old rules — he’s fortifying them against the next progressive president who decides your refrigerator is a threat to the planet.

A Career Built on Failed Impeachments Ended in a Landslide

In Congress for over 20 years...opponent got 69.4% of vote

Voters Fired Al Green From Congress and He Just Told Reporters What Makes Him Proud

This week, video journalist Nicholas Ballasy pressed Green on what still fills him with pride as the country prepares to mark 250 years of independence.

Green did not mention the Founding Fathers. He did not mention the flag, the Constitution, or the 250 years of history Americans are celebrating this weekend.
"I am very proud to tell you that impeachment is an option to remove a reckless, ruthless, lawless president," Green said. "I'm proud to know that that exists."
Green is not some backbencher venting on his way out the door. He is the same congressman who filed impeachment articles against Trump in June 2025 over the strikes on Iran's nuclear sites, only to watch the House table it 344 to 79 with 128 of his own Democrats voting against him.

He tried again in December 2025, forcing a privileged floor vote accusing Trump of being "an abuser of presidential power." That one died too, tabled 237 to 140, with 47 Democrats too embarrassed to even vote against tabling it and 23 Democrats joining every Republican to kill it outright.

Green has now failed to impeach Trump at least five separate times since Trump retook office.

Sunset 7-6-26

From behind George Washington’s desk, Zohran Mamdani lectured America about patriotism while speaking the language of the Red-Green coalition: grievance, inversion, resentment, and ideological conquest dressed up as love.

What would Washington say? He would say America was built by dangerous men — disciplined men, faithful men, family men — tempered by fear of God, love of liberty, and a willingness to risk everything against empire.

Our destiny was never written by the state. It was written by Providence and defended by patriots.

At 250 years, America deserves gratitude, reverence, and courage, not socialist sermonizing. [Luthmann]

Summer fun in Newport Beach

Newport Beach July 4 Chaos: Grocery Store Destroyed, Bars and Beaches Closed

Newport Beach, California, saw a rough end to the Fourth of July weekend after a crowd on the peninsula reportedly turned a holiday night into a scene of disorder.

According to the report, non-residents visiting the area were involved in brawls, looting, and damage to a local grocery store. What should have been a night of fireworks, beach crowds, and summer fun instead became a mess for residents, business owners, and local workers stuck dealing with the fallout.

The Newport Beach peninsula is a popular spot on July 4. That is no surprise. People pack the beaches, bars, restaurants, and boardwalk areas every year. But when crowds get out of control, it can shift fast from busy to dangerous. That appears to be what happened Saturday night, based on the description of the scene.

The report said a grocery store was destroyed during the unrest. Bars and beaches were also closed as officials and businesses tried to get the situation under control. For local business owners, that kind of chaos is not just a headache.

It means damage, lost revenue, cleanup costs, and staff being put in a bad spot on one of the busiest weekends of the year.

Historian Ken Burns Says America Has Endured Worse Divisions

Historian Ken Burns used the July Fourth holiday weekend to deliver an unexpectedly optimistic message

He argued that America’s current political divisions are neither unique nor insurmountable despite the nation’s deeply polarized climate

Speaking with MS NOW’s Jonathan Capehart during a special marking the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, Burns urged Americans to view today’s challenges through the broader sweep of U.S. history and warned against what he called “narcissistic Chicken Little” thinking about the country’s future.

When asked what gives him the greatest hope for America’s future, Burns looked to the nation’s past, arguing that some of its darkest and most divisive chapters ultimately demonstrate its resilience.

“We were way more divided during the Revolution, way more divided during the Civil War, way more divided in the period after the Civil War, Reconstruction, way more divided during Vietnam,” Burns said.

He argued that Americans too often view the present as the nation’s darkest period, overlooking the far deeper crises the country has endured throughout its history.

“I think we have to stop the kind of narcissistic Chicken Little, ‘Oh, this is the worst time ever,'” Burns said.

A stranded soccer fan meets the real America

Tearful German World Cup Supporter Appears on Live TV After Anti-American Panic Collapses

German soccer fan Sebastian Kraus came to the United States for the 2026 World Cup with a head full of fear, and that fear came from the usual media doom machine that loves to sell America as a crime scene with stadium lights.

He told NBC 10 Boston he had been nervous about traveling here because of the constant talk about shootings, criminals, and danger. Then he and his group got stranded, and a New England man named Bob, along with his family, stepped in and offered them a ride to their hotel. No drama. No lecture. Just plain American decency.

That simple act hit Kraus so hard that he later said he watched the goodbye video with Bob about 40 times and cried every time. Funny how a little kindness can do what a thousand gloomy talking points never could.

He says he fell in love with the country.

Is the Supreme Court Compromised by Deep State Cronyism?

ICYMI: Chief Justice Roberts Is Good Pals with Trump-Hating Deep State Leader Norm Eisen

Vacationed at His Palace in Czech Republic for a Week

In a bombshell revelation that’s sending shockwaves through conservative circles, it turns out Chief Justice John Roberts has been rubbing elbows with none other than Norm Eisen—the radical leftist operative who’s spent years orchestrating lawfare campaigns against President Donald Trump, his close advisers, and his allies.

According to a previous report from Revolver News, Roberts didn’t just bump into Eisen at a D.C. cocktail party.

No, these two are apparently such “good pals” that Roberts jetted off to the Czech Republic for a week-long sleepover at Eisen’s lavish 150-room palace.

It’s straight from the mouth of Norm Eisen himself—the very same man who practically wrote the Deep State’s instruction manual on how to destabilize political opponents via color revolutions, lawfare, and weaponized legal warfare against President Trump.

According to Eisen, during an interview with Pantsuit Politics LLC, Chief Justice Roberts is a longtime friend who joined him overseas to work “on American and European rule-of-law issues.”

Norm Eisen has been involved in multiple lawsuits against Donald Trump. From 2019 to 2020, Eisen served as the special counsel to the House Judiciary Committee for the impeachment and trial of President Trump.

Main Runway at Palm Beach International Airport to be rehabilitated

PBIA run­way project may add to delays

Flight delays at Palm Beach Inter­na­tional Air­port, already among the worst in the coun­try, could worsen in the com­ing months.

The Palm Beach County Depart­ment of Air­ports is pre­par­ing to rehab­il­it­ate the air­port’s 10,000-foot primary com­mer­cial run­way, known as 10 L. The $27 mil­lion project will require overnight clos­ures later this year and a com­plete shut­down for six months in 2027, accord­ing to air­port offi­cials.

The first phase of the work will res­ult in the clos­ure of Run­way 10L from 10 p.m. through 6 a.m. Monday to Fri­day from Octo­ber 2026 to Janu­ary 2027. Then, from Feb­ru­ary through July 2027, the 10L run­way would be closed all day. All air­craft would use the smal­ler 7,000-foot cross­wind run­way.

“Wow” was the reac­tion of Nancy Pul­lam, a mem­ber of the Cit­izens’ Com­mit­tee on Air­port Noise. She and other mem­bers were briefed on the upcom­ing work dur­ing a recent meet­ing with air­port staff mem­bers.

“Oh Lordy,” said another mem­ber. Air­port Dir­ector Laura Beebe said some car­ri­ers may need to adjust their sched­ules dur­ing the first phase because flights will not be able to take off or land after 11 p.m. on weeknights. Once the main run­way is closed in 2027, car­ri­ers may have to reduce the load on their planes because the sec­ond­ary run­way is much shorter than the main one.

Palm Beach International Airport (PBI) is officially rebranding to President Donald J. Trump International Airport. The name change takes effect on July 9, 2026. Flight codes and booking systems will transition from PBI to DJT on August 18, 2026. Until then, travelers should continue using PBI.

The Oliver Wolcott story is the kind of July Fourth history Americans should still teach without apology.

In 1776, patriots in New York tore down a 4,000-pound statue of King George III, a monument to British empire dressed up as Roman grandeur.

Oliver Wolcott saw something better than symbolism. He saw ammunition. The King’s lead was hauled to Connecticut, melted down by Wolcott’s family and neighbors, and turned into more than 42,000 musket balls for the Continental Army.

That is the American Revolution in one image: tyranny toppled, melted, molded, and fired back. [Peter Navarro]

Good Night, Patriots!

Mayor Mandami defends Illegals and condems our Government

NYC Mayor Mamdani marks Independence Day by defending illegal immigrants as ICE arrests convicted criminals

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani chose the Fourth of July to deliver an Independence Day address focused not on the nation's founding or the men and women who defend it, but on the plight of illegal immigrants facing enforcement by Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

The speech landed just days after the Department of Homeland Security published a detailed press release listing ICE arrests of illegal aliens convicted of child sex offenses, manslaughter, drug trafficking, and other serious crimes.

The contrast could hardly be sharper. While Mamdani described ICE agents as a menace to neighborhoods, DHS was naming the people those agents had just pulled off American streets, and the crimes that put them there.

In his address, as Breitbart reported, Mamdani cast immigration enforcement in stark terms, describing agents carrying out federal law as an occupying force:
  • "We see masked agents terrorizing our streets, eating food cooked by our undocumented neighbors before spiriting them away in unmarked vans."
  • He went further, framing resistance to ICE operations as an expression of patriotism: "We see America each time neighbors link arms with neighbors without asking how long they have lived here or what papers they have as ICE invades our neighborhood."
  • And he characterized supporters of immigration enforcement as motivated by bigotry: "America, they will tell you, belongs only to those with the right accent or the right shade of skin. The rest of us, they insist, should be grateful for merely being allowed to visit. How small they are, how weak, how unoriginal."
The Mayor who hates America

DHS Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis offered a pointed rebuttal to the kind of framing Mamdani employed. Her statement addressed the arrests directly:

"Yesterday, ICE arrested murderers, pedophiles, sexual predators, drug traffickers, and other criminal illegal aliens convicted of heinous crimes. Thanks to President Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill, ICE is supercharged with 12,000 new law enforcement officers to remove the worst of the worst from American communities.

Nearly 70 percent of ICE arrests are of illegal aliens charged or convicted of a crime in the U.S."

Political Witchhunt in Louisiana

Louisiana Supreme Court halts criminal case against AG Liz Murrill, citing 'extraordinary' procedural failures

The Louisiana Supreme Court stepped in Friday to freeze the criminal prosecution of Attorney General Liz Murrill, just one day after a New Orleans grand jury handed up a 16-count indictment accusing the state's top law enforcement officer of intimidation and malfeasance. The court's stay order did not hold back: the indictment, it said, "appears to turn the law on its head."

The speed alone is striking. A grand jury indicts a sitting attorney general on Thursday. By Friday, the state's highest court has halted the case, found the defendant is likely to win dismissal, and identified what it called "extraordinary procedural defects and improprieties" in the way the charges were brought.

That timeline raises a question worth asking plainly: Was this prosecution built to hold up in court, or was it built to make a political point?

The charges against Murrill, Louisiana's first female attorney general and a Republican, arose from a dispute over the restructuring of a New Orleans court clerk position.

Earlier this year, the state legislature abolished the elected criminal court clerk office in New Orleans and merged it with another clerk role. Months later, Calvin Duncan, whose murder conviction was vacated after more than 28 years in prison, won election to the now-abolished position.

Illegals/Traffickers arrested

Eleven illegal immigrants from Venezuela and Colombia indicted in multi-state sex trafficking, drug, and firearms case

Federal prosecutors have charged eleven Venezuelan and Colombian nationals in a sweeping, 30-count indictment alleging the sex trafficking of a minor, drug trafficking, and illegal firearms trafficking across at least four states.

Ten of the eleven defendants were arrested Tuesday in coordinated law enforcement operations spanning Ohio, Tennessee, North Carolina, and Florida. One defendant remains at large, with a listed residence in Mexico.

The case, announced by the Department of Justice, lays out an alleged criminal network that operated across state lines, trafficking at least nine firearms, selling ecstasy, and, most disturbingly, conspiring to sex traffic a girl between the ages of 14 and 18 along with an adult woman in central Ohio.

Ten of the eleven defendants are currently in the United States illegally. That fact alone should sharpen the focus for anyone still debating whether the federal government has an obligation to know who is inside this country and what they are doing here.

FBI Director Kash Patel announced Operation New Dawn after federal authorities arrested more than 300 suspects in a sweeping 60-day crackdown across the Chicago area.

The historic operation also recovered 24 children, many reported kidnapped or missing, as President Trump’s law enforcement team vows to keep pressure on violent criminal networks.

Patel said the operation marked a major show of force against crime in one of America’s biggest cities. He described it as a “whole-of-government approach” under President Trump’s leadership.
