John Seaman's new dossier, which claims documentary evidence, is lighting a political fuse, alleging a coordinated effort stretching from Barack Obama’s White House to foreign actors in Ukraine.
All are aimed at shaping U.S. elections and kneecapping Donald Trump before and during his presidency.
The report claims a pattern: revived investigations, leaked opposition material, buried evidence, and a narrative machine that drove impeachment and public perception.
Names like Joe Biden, intelligence officials, and Ukrainian operatives surface repeatedly. Whether proven or disputed, the allegations cut to the core of election integrity—and raise serious questions about who was really pulling the strings. [Richard Luthmann]
Mamdani's promised $1.7 billion in budget cuts collapses to just $200 million in actual savings
Mayor Zohran Mamdani's administration released a list of proposed budget savings on Wednesday totaling $200 million. The problem: he promised $1.7 billion.
That means City Hall has publicly accounted for roughly 12 cents of every dollar it pledged to cut from a bloated $127 billion proposed budget, with a $5.4 billion deficit bearing down on New York City taxpayers.
The list itself tells you everything you need to know about how seriously this administration takes fiscal discipline.
Among the highlighted savings: a $20,000 Slack messaging subscription at the Taxi and Limousine Commission. A $133,000 software change at NYC Emergency Management. The Economic Development Corporation will save $626,000 by bringing marketing in-house.
This is what passes for budgetary courage at City Hall.
Vance declares White House will pursue Ilhan Omar over alleged immigration fraud
Vice President J.D. Vance said Friday that the White House "definitely" believes Rep. Ilhan Omar committed immigration fraud and that administration officials are actively working to determine how to build a legal case against the Minnesota Democrat.
The remarks, made on "The Benny Johnson Show," mark the most direct public statement yet from a sitting vice president on allegations that have trailed Omar for years.
Vance told Johnson he had recently spoken with White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller about the matter and that the two are exploring what legal remedies exist.
The comments arrived the same day the vice president's new anti-fraud task force convened for the first time, a body specifically charged with cracking down on social-services fraud across the country, with a particular focus on Minnesota.
The vice president did not announce a specific legal action or filing. But the language he used left little room for ambiguity about the administration's intentions, as the Daily Caller reported.
Former Democrat Senator Kyrsten Sinema faces alienation of affection lawsuit after admitting affair with married bodyguard
Former Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema admitted in court filings that she carried on a romantic and sexual relationship with a married member of her security detail while still serving in Congress, and now his estranged wife wants her to pay for it.
Heather Ammel, the wife of Sinema's former bodyguard Matthew Ammel, has sued the ex-senator under North Carolina's alienation of affection law, accusing Sinema of "intentional and malicious interference" in the Ammels' marriage. The complaint seeks at least $25,000 in compensatory damages plus punitive damages, Fox News Digital reported.
North Carolina is one of just six states that still recognize alienation of affection claims, a legal cause of action rooted in the 19th century that allows a jilted spouse to sue the person they blame for destroying a marriage.
And the facts alleged in this complaint read less like a dry legal filing and more like a soap opera set against a backdrop of Dom Pérignon, Taylor Swift concerts, encrypted messaging apps, and psychedelic drugs.
New Rule Could Pay Tipsters 10-30% to Expose Fraud and Drain the Taxpayer Swamp
On March 30, 2026, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent delivered another powerful blow against the federal fraud machine — and this time, he’s turning everyday Americans into paid fraud fighters.
FinCEN — the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network — proposed a new rule that will reward whistleblowers with 10% to 30% of penalties collected in successful enforcement actions, provided those penalties exceed $1 million. The targets are clear: Bank Secrecy Act violations, sanctions evasion, and large-scale fraud schemes that have been looting taxpayer dollars for far too long.
And here’s the best part for every working American: these rewards will come directly from the fines and penalties recovered — not from new taxes on honest citizens. The fraudsters and money launderers get to foot the bill for their own exposure.
Tips can be submitted confidentially through the dedicated whistleblower portal at fincen.gov/whistleblower. No need to go public, no risk of retaliation — just deliver the facts and let FinCEN investigators take it from there.
The response has already been overwhelming. Since the whistleblower portal launched, over 700 leads have poured in. Banks are stepping up too, filing 20% more suspicious activity reports as scrutiny intensifies.
'No Kings' rallies erupt into violence in Portland, Los Angeles, and Dallas as protests spread nationwide
Thousands of anti-Trump demonstrators filled streets across the country Saturday under the banner of "No Kings", and in at least three cities, the marches turned violent, with protesters hurling cement blocks at federal agents, clashing with police, and forcing officers into riot gear.
Near Mar-a-Lago, the scene took a different kind of turn when vulgar female protesters lifted their shirts outside the president's Florida residence in what the Post described as a lewd display directed at the president's residence. Whatever political message that was meant to convey, it is unlikely to persuade anyone who was not already persuaded.
The protests, organized against the Trump administration, stretched from Portland, Oregon, to New York City. But the sharpest confrontations played out in Los Angeles, where Department of Homeland Security agents deployed tear gas after demonstrators attacked them outside a federal detention facility.
hey also played out in Portland, where evening demonstrations spiraled out of control; and in Dallas, where police had to physically separate opposing groups, the New York Post reported.
The pattern is now familiar. Protests marketed as democratic expression devolve into targeted aggression against federal law enforcement, and the officials tasked with keeping order in blue cities are slow to intervene, unable to intervene, or unwilling to try.
Florida just dropped a legislative hammer, and the message is unmistakable: no more gray zones when it comes to terror-linked organizations.
With Governor Ron DeSantis poised to sign sweeping anti-terror bills, lawmakers are moving to codify what a federal court temporarily blocked.
The clash traces back to Executive Order 25-244 and a sharp rebuke from U.S. District Judge Mark E. Walker, who halted enforcement after challenges from Council on American-Islamic Relations and allied groups.
Now, Tallahassee is rewriting the rules—tightening procedures, raising penalties, and daring critics to stop them.
Once signed, Florida will have a clear, fact-based tool to cut off public support for groups supportive of or engaged in terrorist activity – exactly as the Executive Order intended. [Luthmann]
Kevin Hermening spent 444 days blindfolded, handcuffed, and sleeping on a bare box spring inside revolutionary Iran. He was 20 years old. A Marine sergeant. One of more than 50 Americans seized during the 1979 Iranian hostage crisis. He watched a fellow captive get beaten. He prayed for deliverance.
More than four decades later, Hermening says President Donald Trump finally did what no president before him was willing to do.
Speaking with Fox News Radio's Dave Anthony, Hermening offered a clear verdict on Operation Epic Fury, the joint U.S.-Israeli campaign that followed the Feb. 28 strikes resulting in the death of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei:
"I do believe that the president absolutely did the right thing for the first time in more than 40 years. In this case, to deny the Iranian regime in their pursuit of nuclear weapons."
For more than 40 years. That sentence carries decades of failed diplomacy, abandoned leverage, and strategic cowardice. Multiple administrations talked. They sanctioned. They negotiated frameworks that Iran violated before the ink dried. They sent pallets of cash. They looked away while centrifuges spun.
FBI Director Kash Patel has reportedly ordered agents to prepare decade old investigative files about Rep. Eric Swalwell and a suspected Chinese intelligence operative known as Fang Fang for public release. The files come from an inquiry that did not produce criminal charges.
Still, Patel is pushing fast redactions and a near immediate disclosure of those records to the public. That kind of move is unusual from the FBI but tells you how serious the director is about transparency in this matter.
What the Files Allegedly Contain
Reports say the intelligence community compiled a classified dossier describing how Fang Fang operated as a donor and bundler for Democrats and how she allegedly had an intimate relationship with Swalwell. Some media outlets have claimed the files include explicit details about the relationship.
Officials who have seen portions of the material have described it as politically explosive, even if it did not lead to charges at the time.
Why Release Matters Now
Releasing the files would let the public see what the FBI and intelligence community knew and when they knew it. Conservatives argue this is about accountability and about ensuring lawmakers with possible foreign entanglements did not retain access to sensitive national security information.
Critics worry releasing raw investigative material could unfairly smear people before full vetting. Both points deserve attention, but transparency tends to build trust while secrecy breeds suspicion.
The investigation in question occurred between 2011 and 2015, during which time the FBI was led by Robert Mueller (until September 2013) and then James Comey.
'Malicious purposes': Democrat elections volunteer arrested for stealing sensitive computer equipment ahead of race barely won by Democrat in Trump's home district
PALM BEACH, Florida – A Democrat elections volunteer in Palm Beach County has been arrested for allegedly stealing an encrypted access key and sensitive computer equipment ahead of last week's special election in which a Democrat won by 800 votes in the district including President Donald Trump's home at Mar-a-Lago.
John Panicci, 59, of Lake Worth, Florida, was taken into custody Saturday evening, accused of taking sensitive computer equipment and other supplies on March 19, just five days before the March 24 special election.
WPBF-TV in West Palm Beach reports: "Sheriff's office detectives determined that on March 19, the Supervisor of Elections Office conducted a training session for volunteers assisting with the election scheduled for March 24. During the session, Panicci stole an encrypted access key from a voter registration terminal.
Panicci is listed as a registered Democrat in Palm Beach County on state voter records, with an active registration dating to 2001.
And Lake Worth Crazies were a part of it this past Saturday
There they go again. Or, there they went again. Another day of stomping their feet like toddlers and screaming at the sky, from one end of their Astroturfed nation to the other. "No Kings!" they wailed for hours on Saturday, without any actual justification or moral authority whatsoever.
The Left just so desperately wants you to believe that Donald Trump is some kind of authoritarian ruler because he uses executive orders, enforces immigration law, challenges election fraud, and makes national security decisions they may disagree with.
In their world, doing the job of president, which includes actually exercising executive authority, is “tyranny” when Trump does it. Securing the border? King. Reining in federal agencies? King. Ordering strikes against terrorist regime? King. The standard is: if Trump does it and they don’t like it, it’s dictatorship. [Strictly Speaking] says maybe we should examine this a moment:
For eight years, Barack Obama bragged about governing with a “pen and a phone” when Congress wouldn’t comply with his edicts.
Joe Biden erased hundreds of billions in student debt with a signature, in defiance of the Supreme Court. He signed dozens of executive orders in his first week of stolen office and unilaterally ordered the removal of physical barriers at the border to allow his personally-endorsed invasion of the U.S. homeland. He pushed unconstitutional vaccine mandates through agencies affecting tens of millions of American without congressional authorization. No Kings rallies? Zero.
Bill Clinton launched the Kosovo bombing without congressional approval. He even announced to the nation's voters.
One more point: Trump just took out two actual dictators, and the Left berated him for it. [Bob Frantz]
Iran ‘Laying Traps’ And ‘Building Up Defenses’ On Kharg Island
Preparing For US Ground Attack
Iran has recently bolstered its defenses around Kharg Island, anticipating a possible U.S. move to seize the key oil export hub, CNN reported this week. The island is vital to Iran’s economy, handling roughly 90% of its crude shipments, and has become a focal point in escalating tensions.
The Trump administration has explored the option of sending U.S. forces to take control of the island as leverage to pressure Iran into reopening the Strait of Hormuz. But military officials caution that such an operation would carry serious risks.
Iran has reinforced the island with additional air defense systems, including portable missiles, and has planted mines along likely landing zones.
There is also growing skepticism among U.S. allies and policymakers about whether capturing the island would achieve its broader objective. Even if successful, it may not resolve the wider dispute over energy flows and could instead intensify the conflict.
An Israeli source warned that U.S. troops could face attacks from drones and shoulder-fired missiles if they attempt a landing. Some analysts suggest that targeting Iran’s oil exports through a naval blockade could be a less risky alternative to putting troops on the ground.
You remember the great slogan boom of the last decade: Black Lives Matter, Blue Lives Matter, All Lives Matter, to name just three. America practically turned into a Mad Libs society of moral urgency.
In such a spirit, let’s add one more: “Elections Matter.”
For leftist activists, the idea of voting eligibility has somehow become oppressive in a country where you need a government-issued ID to board a plane, buy a six pack, and purchase Sudafed at a drug store. Yet, verifying who is elected president is somehow a human rights violation.
It is a beguiling double standard: bureaucracy for beer is fine, but bureaucracy for ballots is tyranny. [Greg Maresca]
Jayapal Calls for Reparations to Illegal Immigrants
What Rep. Jayapal Actually Proposed:
Washington Democrat Rep. Pramila Jayapal told reporters she wants “some form of reparation” paid to people who entered the country illegally and who she says were traumatized by ICE enforcement actions during the Trump era, and she said the officers involved should be held accountable and possibly prosecuted.
That is a bold ask that would use taxpayer dollars to compensate noncitizens for harms tied to immigration enforcement rather than focusing on border security or legal remedies.
Why This Matters to Everyday Taxpayers:
Americans should care because reparations mean money and policy choices, and paying people who broke our immigration laws raises simple questions about fairness and incentives.
Voters fund schools, roads and law enforcement, not cash settlements that could encourage more illegal entry or divert resources from citizens and legal residents with needs such as public safety, veterans services and infrastructure upkeep.
Illegals, who broke our laws entering our country because they were afraid of ICE that was doing its lawful job? Have you ever heard of anything more insane other than reparations to decendents of slaves?
Adam Carolla didn’t hold back. He ripped into liberal hypocrisy on immigration and crime. He did it plain and loud. Short sentences. No fluff.
Carolla’s point is simple. Some deaths get headlines. Others don’t. He says that’s not an accident. It’s a political choice. He argues Democrats protect policies that let violent illegal immigrants remain in the country. Then they act like the victims don’t matter when those policies lead to murder.
He used a recent Chicago killing as an example. A college student was shot. Carolla says the political class looked the other way. Meanwhile, they make big shows for other cases that fit their narrative.
Here are his words from the partial transcript:
“They either don’t acknowledge it at all or they kind of are dismissive of it, which is what they have to do because it’s their policy that got this person k*lled.”
If you haven’t seen this clip yet, stop what you’re doing and watch it—because it’s the kind of courtroom meltdown that makes you wonder whether we’re living in a legal system or a late-night comedy sketch gone off the rails.
What starts as a routine hearing in Oklahoma turns into a full-blown spectacle, complete with shouting, defiance, and a judge who’s clearly had enough.
This isn’t just viral—it’s unforgettable. And while some will try to spin it, excuse it, or politicize it, most people are watching the same thing and thinking one word: chaos. [Andy Ngo]
