January 6th: 1,000+ Hours of Secret January 6 Bodycam Video Released

Newly Released Jan. 6 Bodycam Shows Claim That 350 FBI Agents Were Ready to Deploy

New Jan. 6 Footage Finally Sees Daylight

Judicial Watch announced Monday that the Washington, DC, Metropolitan Police Department released more than 1,000 hours of body-worn camera footage from January 6, 2021, spread across 1,630 videos.

The release came after a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit filed in June 2024, which is another reminder that when the government says “transparency,” it often means “check back after we drag this through court.” The footage is now drawing fresh attention because one clip appears to include police radio traffic discussing a large FBI presence near the Capitol that day.

The Line That Has People Rewinding The Tape--

January 6 defendant and investigative journalist Tommy Tatum flagged a bodycam clip identified in the source material as X6039BF3H, with the key audio reportedly starting around the 12:30 mark and occurring around 5:14 p.m.

In the clip, an officer appears to say something along the lines of, “Do you have 350 FBI agents there right at this moment?” or “You got 350 FBI agents there ready to deploy.”

The background noise makes the full exchange hard to hear, so caution is fair, but the number is what has people paying attention. If police on the ground were discussing hundreds of FBI personnel being ready to deploy, that raises obvious questions about who was there, what roles they had, and why the public had to wait years to hear this audio.

Mamdani's rent freeze, tax hikes a 'one-two wealth destruction punch

Google Pioneer Who Escaped Soviet Socialism Just Took a Huge Loss Running From NYC’s Version of It

New York City's socialist mayor just froze rents on a million apartments

Google Co-Founder Sergey Brin Sells NYC Rent-Stabilized Stake at Massive Loss Amid Rent Freeze.

Now the man who fled the Soviet Union as a child has made his move. And what Sergey Brin accepted to get out of this city will stun you. Brin Got Six Cents on the Dollar and Called It a Win.

Brin's family office, Amphitheatre LLC, quietly sold its stake in a New York apartment fund late last year – a fund managed by A&E Real Estate controlling nearly 5,900 rent-stabilized units scattered across Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, and the Bronx.

He did not get his money back.

A&E bought out Brin's position for roughly six cents on every dollar of his original equity investment. On paper, his stake carried a gross property value of approximately $79 million.

He took what he could get and left. That was a man who has seen this movie before, who knows exactly how it ends, and who decided that getting out cheap was better than waiting to see if America's biggest city learns the lesson the Bronx tried to teach it fifty years ago.

Platner Drops Out

Graham Platner of Maine ends Senate Campaign

Mamdani's adviser races to Maine as Platner and allies plot leverage over furious Democrats---all in vain

Morris Katz, an adviser to New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, traveled to Sullivan, Maine, on Wednesday to huddle with Graham Platner's campaign staff at the embattled Senate nominee's home, days before a state-law deadline that will determine whether Democrats can replace Platner on the ballot at all.

Platner, an oyster farmer who won over 150,000 votes in the Democratic primary, has refused to withdraw from Maine's U.S. Senate race despite a rape allegation from a former girlfriend, public demands from his own party's biggest names, and a threat from the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee to abandon the contest entirely if he stays in.

The Wednesday gathering, which included campaign manager Ben Chin, field director Spencer Toth, digital communications consultant Ryan Aquilina, and Chin's deputy Eleni Neyland, was not a surrender session. The New York Post reported that Katz and the campaign brass were plotting how Platner could "remain a voice" in the race regardless of whether he eventually steps aside.

A source familiar with the deliberations told the Post that Katz believes Platner should leave before the Monday deadline but wants the exit to happen "on the candidate's terms."

That framing has infuriated Democrats up and down the party structure.

Trump answers Mandami From A Mountain Carved With Presidents

Zohran Mamdani Picked Washington’s Desk To Trash Founding Fathers

And Trump Answered Hours Later

Zohran Mamdani parked himself behind George Washington's own writing desk on the eve of America's 250th birthday.Then he used that desk to accuse his own country of stealing from the people who built it.

Hours later Donald Trump stood at Mount Rushmore and gave Mamdani an answer New York will not forget. New York City's socialist mayor did not choose City Hall's Governor's Room by accident. He sat down at the actual desk George Washington once used, surrounded by ten newly naturalized citizens, and used the moment to deliver a verdict on the country Washington founded.

Mamdani described masked agents "terrorizing our streets" while claiming the wealth built by ordinary workers gets hoarded by a privileged few at the top. He never mentioned Trump by name. He didn't need to.

Mamdani spent nearly fifteen minutes recasting America's founding story as a tale of exploitation, framing immigration enforcement as terror and free enterprise as theft.

The mayor who campaigned on rent freezes and city-run grocery stores turned a celebration of the country's 250th birthday into an indictment of everything that built it.

Trump responded from underneath the stone faces of Washington, Jefferson, Roosevelt, and Lincoln at Mount Rushmore. Trump warned of a "resurgence of the communist menace in our land," calling it a direct threat to the freedoms America has spent 250 years building.

He never said Mamdani's name either. He didn't have to.

Sunset 7-8-26

The DSA formula is not national magic. It is a blue-city parasite feeding inside districts the Democrat Party already made untouchable to Republicans and independents.

In these deep-blue urban seats, Election Day is theater. The real election is the primary.

Once regular Democrats built one-party fortresses, the socialists moved in, outworked them, and started taking the keys.

Claire Valdez, Darializa Avila Chevalier, Brad Lander, and the “Commie Corridor” are not proof America wants socialism. They are proof the Democrat machine trapped itself inside its own monopoly. [Richard Luthmann]

Smithsonian Institution going Woke

White House tears into ‘extreme political activism’ at National Museum of American History

The White House lashed out against the Smithsonian Institution’s leadership Monday, accusing the network that runs 21 museums of “extreme political activism” and failing to celebrate America.

A new White House report accuses leaders of the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of American History of embracing "extreme political activism" and using the nation's flagship history museum to advance what the report describes as an ideological agenda.

The 162-page report, released on July 4 by the White House Domestic Policy Council, is part of the Trump administration’s ongoing review of the Smithsonian. It is the latest move in the Trump administration’s broader push to scrutinize Smithsonian exhibits and programming that federal officials view as overly ideological or "woke."

The report argues that museum leaders have moved the institution away from historical scholarship and toward social justice advocacy, saying the museum now presents American history largely through themes of racism, oppression and inequality.

“This ideological capture has moved the Museum’s mission away from straightforward historical education and scholarship toward an extreme political activism that seeks to transform our country,” the report states.

The U.S. government heavily funds the Smithsonian Institution, providing about two-thirds of its annual budget. Federal appropriations—approved by Congress—account for more than $1 billion each year, while the remaining third comes from private donations, endowments, and retail revenue.

Democrats endorsed first and vetted later

Democrats abandon Graham Platner en masse after new sexual assault allegation rocks Maine Senate race

The most consequential blow came from party leadership. Schumer and Gillibrand issued a joint statement through the DSCC that went beyond moral disapproval and into raw political hardball:
"Graham Platner needs to immediately withdraw as the Democratic nominee for Senate and allow Maine Democrats the opportunity to choose a new candidate who can defeat Susan Collins. The DSCC will not invest in the Maine Senate race if Platner remains on the ballot."
That statement carries real weight. Without DSCC money, a Senate campaign in a competitive state is effectively dead on arrival.

The party's campaign arm didn't just ask Platner to leave. It told him the money spigot was already shut.

Andrew Gillum

Former Florida Democrat Andrew Gillum Arrested On Drug Charges In Alabama

Former Florida Democratic gubernatorial candidate Andrew Gillum was arrested last week in Alabama on multiple drug-related charges, marking the latest legal setback for the onetime rising star of the Democratic Party.

Online jail records show Gillum was taken into custody Thursday night by the Daphne Police Department in Daphne, Alabama, before being booked into the Baldwin County Jail. He faces charges of possession of dangerous drugs, possession of drug paraphernalia, and possession of marijuana.

Latest Incident Follows 2020 Miami Beach Investigation.

Gillum’s arrest comes more than six years after a widely publicized 2020 incident at a Miami Beach hotel that drew national attention. Police and paramedics responded to the Mondrian Hotel after a 911 caller reported concern that another man staying with Gillum had suffered a possible overdose. When first responders entered the room, they found Gillum and another man appearing dazed and disoriented.

Body camera footage later released by police showed several prescription pill bottles inside the room. Investigators also recovered three small bags containing methamphetamine.

Lake Worth Beach to get Parking Garage

Downtown Lake Worth to get public parking garage but lawsuit looms

(This story was updated because an earlier version contained an inaccuracy.) One of Palm Beach County's last cities with no fully public parking garage took a big step toward building one downtown on June 30, overcoming concerns over its financing and the end of free parking.

Lake Worth Beach city commissioners voted 4-1 to allow construction of the garage south of Lake Avenue, on the northwest corner of South K Street and First Avenue South. Commissioner Chris McVoy, long opposed to the project, cast the opposing vote.

The vote changed the city's zoning in the area to allow the parking garage. The K street garage will be part of the Wiener Museum of Decorative Arts campus.

The planned 95,000-square-foot, four-story garage will have 260 spaces, but once city-owned parking lots replaced by the project are taken into account, the growth in new spaces effectively shrinks to 133, according to Chen Moore and Associates, an engineering consultancy hired by the city.

Developer Anthony Wiener is contributing $1 million to the $8.5 million garage, with the city contributing the rest.

Tonight's Sky 7-7-26

New York’s affordability crisis is not caused by too much capitalism.

It is caused by scarcity, regulation, cost pressure, and a political class that thinks slogans can repeal economics.

Mamdani talks like every collectivist before him: freeze rents, mandate wages, control outcomes, punish owners, and pretend consequences will not follow. But cities run on supply chains, maintenance costs, labor costs, taxes, energy, risk, and price signals. Ignore those signals long enough, and scarcity becomes policy.

It was the same ideological speech that we hear every few decades and it always leads to the same place. Failure. [Michael Smith]

Proposed Municipal Service Taxing Unit

👮🏼‍♂️ Outcast: Bradshaw budget faces the boot

"Like a teenager who has outgrown his childhood bedroom, the $1.2 billion budget for the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office has gotten so big it may need to move out on its own.

County commissioners, frustrated by state officials claiming they squander property tax money while praising Sheriff Ric Bradshaw’s spending, are proposing a municipal service taxing unit, or MSTU, to separate the sheriff’s budget from everything else.

Why it matters: The move would sharply reduce the cost of the sheriff’s services for city residents, while increasing it for residents of unincorporated areas. It would force the sheriff to justify annual increases to residents who would see a direct impact on their pocketbooks.

What they’re saying: “It’s the county’s responsibility to fund the budget for law enforcement services,” Bradshaw said in a statement declaring no objection to the proposal. “It’s their decision which method they choose to accomplish this. I only oppose not getting properly funded.”

The county budget would still cover the sheriff’s costs to run jails, secure the courts and analyze crime data.

Expenses for patrolling unincorporated portions of the county, which total hundreds of millions of dollars, would fall to the MSTU. Residents of Palm Beach Gardens, West Palm Beach, Boca Raton and any other city with its own police force would pay for those universal services through the county tax but would get a lower county tax bill because they wouldn’t be part of the MSTU.

Those who live in the 12 cities, including Lake Worth Beach, Greenacres and Wellington, that have contracts with the sheriff’s office for law enforcement, also would not be part of the MSTU.

Lake Worth Beach Flag Law

Only One City in PBC Allows You to Display Just One American Flag

One city in Palm Beach County seems to limit residents to waving just one American flag on their property, but in a patriotically ironic twist, that law was written to override anti-flag rules.

One score and five years ago, less than two months after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, Lake Worth Beach’s elected leaders passed an ordinance stating “Every resident in the city shall have the right to display one (1) American flag in a respectful manner” in accordance with U.S. flag code.

No other city in Palm Beach County enshrines in their legal codes a number so low for their residents. No other city calls out the American flag like this.

On Nov. 6, 2001, when Lake Worth Beach was just Lake Worth and Rodney Romano was mayor and Scott Maxwell were on the commission, the city’s elected leaders unanimously passed the flag law to bar homeowners associations and condominium boards from imposing rules on their residents flying an American flag, the city’s notes from that City Commission meeting show.

That is why another part of the city’s flag law states, “Any condominium or homeowners’ association regulation or provision contrary to this section is hereby declared void as being against public policy, even if the regulation or provision was adopted before this Code provision.”

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.
