Portland's police chief literally cried on camera while confirming that federal agents were right—the people they detained are Tren de Aragua gang members. One's a convicted criminal, the other runs a prostitution ring online, and together they tried to ram a truck into CBP officers. Yet instead of backing law enforcement, we get tears and politicians calling ICE "state-sponsored terrorism."Meanwhile, a Portland cop gets reassigned for stating the obvious truth to unhinged protesters: "Sometimes criminals get shot when they break the law." He's punished for reality while city leaders rally behind violent Venezuelan gang members with final deportation orders. One cop speaks common sense, loses his assignment. Career criminals assault federal agents, become victims.When did defending actual criminals over law enforcement become the default? Why are mayors crying over gang members instead of supporting officers doing their jobs? Is anyone else tired of backwards priorities that put taxpayers and communities last?

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this Friday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan covers the escalating confrontation between Minnesota Democrats and federal immigration authorities, growing unrest tied to anti-ICE activism, new economic signals from the White House, rising global pressure on Iran and China, and a look at medical and technology developments heading into the weekend. Minnesota Democrats Escalate Against ICE: Minnesota media outlets and national Democrats are facing backlash after doxxing the ICE officer involved in the fatal shooting of activist Renee Good. DHS officials warn the move could put officers and their families in danger, echoing past incidents in Los Angeles where officers faced threats and harassment. Vice President JD Vance defended the ICE agent, stating that video and medical evidence clearly show the officer acted in self-defense after being struck by Good's vehicle. Radicalization and Anti-ICE Networks Exposed: Reporting reveals that Good was radicalized through a charter school that prioritizes political activism and later trained with a group called ICE Watch, which teaches tactics to obstruct immigration raids. Bryan explains how activists are instructed to use vehicles, barricades, and incendiary materials to block officers, behavior he says amounts to organized domestic extremism rather than peaceful protest. ICE Operations Expand Nationwide: President Trump is sending an additional 100 ICE officers to Minneapolis, bringing total deployments there to roughly 2,000. In Portland, Oregon, two Venezuelan migrants affiliated with the Tren de Aragua gang were shot after allegedly attempting to run over an ICE officer during a traffic stop tied to a prostitution investigation. Democratic leaders condemned ICE actions in both cities, while the administration argues officers are responding to lethal threats. California Loses Federal Transportation Funding: The Trump administration is withholding 160 million dollars from California after audits found that roughly one quarter of the state's commercial driver licenses were issued unlawfully, including to foreign-born drivers who cannot read or speak English. Advocacy groups representing migrant truckers sued to block the revocations, and Governor Gavin Newsom sided with them, prompting federal retaliation. Bryan warns that unsafe licensing practices have already contributed to deadly accidents nationwide. Trump Seeks Massive Military Expansion: President Trump is proposing a $1.5 trillion defense budget, up from $900 billion currently. He argues the increase is necessary for future conflicts and could be funded through tariffs. Budget analysts warn the move could add nearly $6 trillion to the national debt over a decade, raising questions about sustainability and congressional approval. Economic Signals Show Mixed Progress: Layoffs fell in December, trade deficits shrank to their lowest levels since 2009, and the White House announced plans to purchase $200 billion in mortgage bonds to lower interest rates. Federal employment continues to decline as agencies shrink outside of DHS. Bryan notes the strategy appears to be working so far, but court rulings on tariffs could complicate the outlook. Global Pressure Builds on Iran and China: Protests are spreading across Iran, including strikes at critical oil facilities, prompting a violent crackdown by regime forces. President Trump warned that further bloodshed could trigger U.S. intervention. Meanwhile, China is tightening its grip on rare earth exports, cutting off Japan and reminding the world that Beijing will weaponize supply chains whenever it chooses. Health and Technology Updates: New research suggests that certain cancer patients may need to reconsider high glutamine diets during treatment, while UK studies confirm that stopping GLP one weight loss drugs leads to rapid weight regain. Bryan closes with optimism about new lightweight exoskeletons showcased at CES, which may help older adults and injured individuals regain mobility and independence.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: January 9 2026 Wright Report, Renee Good ICE shooting Minneapolis, JD Vance self defense statement, ICE Watch activist training, Tren de Aragua Portland ICE shooting, California CDL audit funding withheld, Gavin Newsom migrant truck licenses, Trump defense budget one point five trillion, tariff Supreme Court ruling risk, Iran protests oil strike crackdown, China rare earth export squeeze Japan, CES exoskeleton mobility technology

Overnight, the conflict escalated. Federal agents are targeted in Portland and Minneapolis, ICE officers are injured, and political leaders and media outlets rush to defend the attackers while demonizing law enforcement. This episode exposes what the hosts call a classic Marxist guerrilla war, playing out in real time on American streets—complete with political intimidation, media cover-ups, and massive financial corruption tied to illegal networks. From ICE agents being rammed by vehicles to hundreds of millions of dollars in cash leaving U.S. airports, the pieces are finally coming together. ⚠️

Overnight, the political conflict escalated into what looks and feels like a guerrilla war on U.S. soil. Federal agents are shot at in Portland, ICE is told to stand down, and shocking new data reveals hundreds of millions of dollars in cash leaving America through one airport. From armed encounters with alleged foreign gang members to governors invoking Civil War imagery, this episode exposes the money, power, and ideology driving today's chaos—and why history may be repeating itself. ⚠️

The Department of Homeland Security identified the two people shot in Portland on Thursday, saying they are “suspected Tren de Aragua gang associates”.U.S. military forces boarded an oil tanker in an early morning operation in the Caribbean Sea on Friday, the third such action this week, the U.S. Southern Command announced in a statement.

President Trump meets with top oil executives at the White House today, discussing a possible return to Venezuela to rebuild its oil infrastructure. This comes as the U.S. has seized a fifth sanctioned oil tanker with links to Venezuela in the Caribbean, as others attempt to evade U.S. law enforcement.New footage of Wednesday's shooting by an ICE agent in Minnesota appears to show that the officer was struck by the protester's vehicle. Meanwhile, federal immigration officers shot and wounded two people in a vehicle in Portland on Thursday. According to the Department of Homeland Security, the driver attempted to run agents over during a targeted vehicle stop. DHS says the two individuals are affiliates of Tren de Aragua, which the U.S. has designated a foreign terrorist organization.Protests against the Iranian regime continue across Iran. Fires were seen burning in the capital alongside the latest demonstrations. Internet and phone lines were cut nationwide as the protests began. The Human Rights Activists News Agency says the death toll has now risen to 62.

Two people were injured in a shooting involving a federal agent in Portland, Oregon, on Thursday, according to authorities. The Department of Homeland Security said the shooting occurred while Border Patrol agents were conducting a "targeted" stop on a vehicle carrying two people allegedly affiliated with the Tren de Aragua gang. The passenger was the target, DHS said.

Le président vénézuélien Nicolás Maduro a plaidé non coupable des accusations de narcoterrorisme portées contre lui par les États-Unis après son arrestation et son transfert à New York. M. Maduro est inculpé de quatre chefs d'accusation, dont complot en vue d'importer de la cocaïne et possession de mitrailleuses et autres armes prohibées. Il réfute ces accusations et affirme être toujours le président du Venezuela. L'accusation soutient que le président vénézuélien dirigeait un réseau de trafic de cocaïne lié aux cartels mexicains, aux FARC colombiennes et au cartel vénézuélien Tren de Aragua.

No “Estadão Analisa” desta terça-feira, 06, Carlos Andreazza comenta sobre a captura do presidente da Venezuela, o ditador Nicolás Maduro, e a esposa, Cilia Flores, na madrugada do sábado, 3 de janeiro, pelos Estados Unidos numa ação militar jamais vista no continente americano. A Venezuela informou que os bombardeios atingiram também a população civil. Ao menos quatro localidades venezuelanas teriam sido atacadas por militares americanos: além da capital Caracas, foram alvejadas La Guaira, Miranda e Aragua. No dia anterior, Maduro tinha afirmado estar pronto para negociar com os Estados Unidos sobre combate a narcotráfico.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this Special War Brief edition of The Wright Report, Bryan delivers an exclusive breakdown of the stunning U.S. operation that captured Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro, examines the legal and strategic fallout of the mission, and warns that while the snatch was flawless, what comes next may be far more dangerous. Operation Absolute Resolve Captures Maduro: U.S. Special Forces and the CIA executed a high-risk overnight raid in Caracas, capturing Nicolás Maduro and his wife from a fortified military base and flying them to New York to face federal drug trafficking charges. The operation involved more than 150 U.S. aircraft, cyber tools that disabled air defenses and electricity, and months of CIA recruitment inside Maduro's inner circle. One U.S. helicopter took fire and one soldier was lightly injured, but the mission succeeded without American fatalities. Legal Gray Zone and Regime Change Risks: Bryan explains the central legal question now facing the Trump administration. If the operation is treated strictly as a law enforcement action, it likely falls within presidential authority. But Trump's own comments about controlling Venezuelan oil, gold, and governance blur that line and raise questions about whether this was de facto regime change, which could require congressional approval. The uncertainty is already complicating Maduro's prosecution and U.S. credibility abroad. Who Runs Venezuela Now: Despite Maduro's removal, his vice president Delcy Rodríguez remains in power and is openly defying Washington, claiming Maduro is still the legitimate leader. Bryan warns that the United States may be attempting a "puppet strategy" rather than a clean transition, relying on hardline Marxists who still control militias, gangs, and narco networks like Tren de Aragua. This creates a volatile mix of criminal, ideological, and guerrilla threats inside a country larger than Texas. Global Shockwaves and Warnings: China reacted with fury and signaled that America's action could justify similar operations against Taiwan. Democrats condemned the raid as unlawful despite years of calling for Maduro's removal. Trump and Secretary Rubio warned that Cuba, Colombia, Mexico, and even Greenland should take note. Bryan cautions that while the operation showcased American intelligence and military excellence, it also exposed U.S. vulnerabilities to retaliation through minerals, sabotage networks, and proxy violence at home. Best Case vs. Worst Case: Best case, the U.S. secures energy access, stabilizes Venezuela, and sends millions of migrants home. Worst case, Venezuela descends into chaos, guerrilla warfare erupts, Tren de Aragua launches attacks inside the United States, and China or Russia escalate through economic or covert retaliation. Bryan concludes that capturing Maduro may prove to be the easiest part of a long and dangerous chapter now unfolding.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Operation Absolute Resolve Maduro capture, CIA Special Forces Caracas raid, Maduro drug trafficking SDNY, Trump Venezuela oil gold control, Delcy Rodríguez power struggle, Tren de Aragua retaliation risk, China Taiwan snatch precedent, Cuba Colombia Mexico warnings, regime change legal authority, Venezuela best case worst case scenario

No primeiro “Estadão Analisa” do ano Carlos Andreazza comenta sobre a captura do presidente da Venezuela, o ditador Nicolás Maduro, e a esposa, Cilia Flores, na madrugada do sábado, 3 de janeiro, pelos Estados Unidos numa ação militar jamais vista no continente americano. A Venezuela informou que os bombardeios atingiram também a população civil. Ao menos quatro localidades venezuelanas teriam sido atacadas por militares americanos: além da capital Caracas, foram alvejadas La Guaira, Miranda e Aragua. No dia anterior, Maduro tinha afirmado estar pronto para negociar com os Estados Unidos sobre combate a narcotráfico. Trump recrudescia cada vez mais o cerco à Venezuela nos dias anteriores ao ataque. A Casa Branca havia aplicado sanções a empresas e frotas ligadas ao setor petrolífero do país sulaemericano. E o governo americano vinha destruindo barcos supostamente ligados ao narcotráfico no Caribe e em território venezuelano. A operação para prender Maduro foi deflagrada na madrugada de sábado.

El año 2025 cierra con un tiempo estable y frío, con nieblas en Galicia y las mesetas. Políticamente, José Luis Ávalos y Koldo García pasan la Nochevieja en prisión por corrupción.

Hey there, listeners, buckle up because the Supreme Court's shadow docket has been on fire these past few days, handing President Donald Trump and his administration a string of high-stakes wins in battles over everything from the National Guard to passports and federal spending. Just eight days ago, on December 23, 2025, the Court ruled in Trump v. Illinois, siding against the administration's bid to federalize and deploy the National Guard in Illinois without state consent. Justice Brett Kavanaugh wrote a concurrence, while Justices Samuel Alito and Neil Gorsuch dissented, arguing the move was essential for national security amid rising unrest in Chicago. The Brennan Center's Supreme Court Shadow Docket Tracker notes this as one of only five losses for the administration since January, out of 25 emergency decisions, with most favoring Trump at least partially and often with minimal explanation.But don't let that one setback fool you—the Court has been overwhelmingly pro-administration lately. On November 6, the justices greenlit the State Department's policy refusing passports that reflect transgender applicants' gender identity for a certified class of plaintiffs, overruling lower courts in a terse order. Justices Ketanji Brown Jackson, Sonia Sotomayor, and Elena Kagan dissented sharply, warning it tramples civil rights. This fits a pattern: back on October 3 in Noem v. National TPS Alliance, the Court forced the government to release congressionally appropriated foreign aid funds, with Justice Kagan's dissent, joined by Sotomayor and Jackson, blasting it as executive overreach. Earlier, September 22's Trump v. Slaughter let the administration dodge discovery demands from Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington over DOGE Service materials under the Freedom of Information Act.Rewind a bit further into this whirlwind year, and the shadow docket explodes with immigration clashes. In Noem v. Doe on May 30, the Court allowed Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem to revoke parole en masse for half a million noncitizens from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela, skipping individual reviews—Justice Jackson dissented alongside Sotomayor. April's Trump v. J.G.G. permitted deportations of alleged Tren de Aragua gang members under the Alien Enemies Act, despite dissents from Sotomayor, Kagan, Jackson, and even partial pushback from Amy Coney Barrett. A.A.R.P. v. Trump on April 19 blocked removals of Venezuelan nationals, a rare check, with Kavanaugh concurring and Alito dissenting.Civil service purges? Check: McMahon v. New York on July 14 okayed firing Department of Education employees, while Trump v. Boyle upheld Trump's power to boot Consumer Product Safety Commission members without cause. Even LGBTQ+ rights took hits, like United States v. Shilling in May letting the Defense Department terminate transgender service members. Lawfare's Trump Administration Litigation Tracker highlights ongoing suits, including a coalition of nonprofits and cities challenging the suspension of November 2025 SNAP benefits—a case that echoes lower court fights like District of Rhode Island's order to fully fund them.Since Inauguration Day, the Supreme Court's emergency docket—mostly Department of Justice filings—has tilted 20-to-5 toward Trump, per SCOTUSblog and Shadow Docket Watch data. Justices Alito, Thomas, Gorsuch, and Kavanaugh often push back against blocks, while the liberal trio fights rearguard actions. As 2025 wraps, two applications still pend, promising more drama.Thanks for tuning in, listeners—come back next week for more.

In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan covers the first confirmed U.S. ground strike inside Venezuela, escalating threats between Washington and Tehran, high-stakes peace negotiations over Ukraine, and a wide-ranging listener Q&A that spans Africa, Europe, and promising medical breakthroughs. U.S. Destroys Venezuelan Port Facility: President Trump confirmed that U.S. forces destroyed a port facility used by the Maduro regime to load drug trafficking boats. Reporting from Axios and CNN indicates the strike targeted land-based infrastructure, marking a major escalation beyond maritime interdictions. Bryan explains that the CIA and U.S. Special Forces were almost certainly involved and that the attack was meant to signal to Maduro that Washington has deep intelligence access and is prepared to keep striking unless a deal is reached. Risks of Retaliation and Global Entanglement: Bryan warns that a cornered Maduro may turn to sabotage operations inside the United States using narco gangs like Tren de Aragua. He also outlines less likely but more dangerous scenarios involving Chinese or Russian support, noting that Venezuela owes Beijing roughly $70 billion. Bryan argues Trump likely holds the advantage, but the situation remains volatile. Trump Threatens New Strikes on Iran: Following talks with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, President Trump said additional U.S. airstrikes are possible if Iran advances its nuclear or ballistic missile programs. For the first time, Washington appears equally focused on Iran's missile capabilities, aligning more closely with Israel's long held concerns. Iran's president responded by declaring a full-scale war with the United States and Israel. Iranian Assassination Plot Uncovered: The FBI is investigating an Iranian Quds Force team allegedly operating inside the United States to kidnap or assassinate American officials, including President Trump. Bryan connects the threat to mounting unrest inside Iran, where currency collapse, water shortages, and street protests are pushing the regime toward desperation. Ukraine Seeks Long-Term U.S. Security Guarantees: President Zelenskyy asked for a fifty-year American security guarantee as part of any peace deal with Russia. Trump countered with an offer of fifteen years. Bryan explains why such guarantees could entangle the United States in future wars and spark backlash from Trump's America First base, especially if paired with new conflicts in Iran and Venezuela. Listener Questions and Medical Good News: Bryan answers listener questions on Somaliland, European cultural decline, and why Israel's recognition of Somaliland has ignited regional tensions. He closes with encouraging medical updates on multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, and diabetes, highlighting research that links oral health, cellular energy balance, and natural sunlight exposure to improved outcomes.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Venezuela port strike CIA Special Forces, Maduro narco boats Tren de Aragua, Trump Iran missile nuclear threats, Iranian assassination plot Quds Force FBI, Ukraine peace talks security guarantee, Zelenskyy Trump fifteen years, Somaliland Israel recognition Horn of Africa, Europe cultural decline cousin marriage, MS oral bacteria research, NAD Alzheimer's study, sunlight diabetes glucose control

La première intervention terrestre des États-Unis au Venezuela a eu lieu la semaine dernière. Donald Trump l'a révélée dans une interview diffusée à la radio, vendredi 26 décembre. Lundi 29 décembre, il a donné quelques détails : c'est un quai situé sur la côte vénézuélienne, qui servait à des trafiquants de drogue à charger des bateaux, qui a été détruit. CNN et le New York Times affirment que c'est la CIA qui a mené la frappe, sans doute mercredi selon le quotidien. Selon ces médias, une frappe de drone a anéanti une installation portuaire utilisée par le gang Tren de Aragua et a fait aucun mort. Cette opération est avant tout symbolique, explique l'une des sources anonymes citées par CNN, car il y a énormément d'installations portuaires de ce genre au Venezuela. D'ailleurs, l'affaire n'a fait grand bruit dans le pays. Mais pour le New York Times, cette frappe marque « le début d'une phase plus agressive dans la campagne que mène l'administration Trump contre le gouvernement Maduro ». Elle « pourrait accroître considérablement les tensions entre les États-Unis et le président vénézuélien », acquiesce CNN. Comment JD Vance a réussi à convaincre Elon Musk de ne pas créer de parti politique Souvenez-vous, c'était au printemps dernier : la fin de la bromance entre Donald Trump et Elon Musk, les insultes par réseaux sociaux interposés et cette promesse du milliardaire de créer un troisième parti politique qui suscite des inquiétudes au sein du camp MAGA. Le Washington Post raconte comment en coulisses, JD Vance, qui a peur pour les mid-terms, fait tout pour que Musk renonce à son projet. Il demande leur aide aux proches d'Elon Musk, promet de soutenir son candidat à la tête de la Nasa... Et ça marche ! Aujourd'hui, Donald Trump et Elon Musk sont à nouveau en bons termes, écrit le quotidien. Une trêve toutefois fragile, relève encore le journal qui met en garde Donald Trump et JD Vance qui aimerait compter sur Elon Musk pour la présidentielle de 2028 : quand le milliardaire soutient financièrement quelqu'un, il attend beaucoup en retour. Il aime « accaparer l'attention et veut orienter la politique selon sa propre vision du monde », écrit le Washington Post. À lire aussiDonald Trump dit que les États-Unis ont détruit un quai lié, selon lui, au narcotrafic au Venezuela Hausse « historique » du salaire minimum en Colombie En Colombie, la décision du président d'augmenter de plus de 23% le salaire minimum à partir de jeudi 1er janvier, provoque des réactions, pas seulement positives. « C'est un jour de fête pour les travailleurs et les classes populaires », s'est réjoui hier la Centrale unitaire des Travailleurs, rapporte El Tiempo. Les syndicats qui avaient demandé une hausse de 16%, ne s'attendaient pas à une telle augmentation. Mais ce cadeau de Noël passe mal auprès des patrons, prévient El Espectador  qui dans un article, se propose de décrypter « le bon, le mauvais et le laid » de cette décision. « Lo bueno, lo malo y lo feo » en espagnol, un jeu de mots car c'est aussi la traduction du film «  Le bon, la brute et le truand ». Avec cette augmentation bien supérieure à l'inflation, le président espère relancer l'économie, explique le quotidien. Mais attention, préviennent les chefs d'entreprises et des experts, c'est surtout l'inflation et les dépenses publiques qui risquent de s'emballer. La méthode employée par Gustavo Petro fait aussi débat. Le président a pris cette décision tout seul, ce que dénonce l'Association des entrepreneurs de Colombie. Il « a créé le concept de "revenu minimum vital", sans une discussion large, ouverte et démocratique », rapporte El Tiempo. Comme le souligne El Espectador, à quelques mois de la présidentielle, l'opposition y voit « un calcul électoral ».   Haïti : accusations d'une ONG contre la police Gazette Haïti se fait l'écho d'une lettre envoyée par le Réseau national de défense des droits humains (RNDDH) à l'Inspection générale de la police, dans lequel cette ONG dénonce la « connivence » entre des membres des forces de l'ordre et trois gangs dans l'Artibonite. Au moins sept agents « sont accusés d'avoir vendu des munitions et des armes, ainsi que de fournir des informations stratégiques de la Police nationale d'Haïti (PNH) aux groupes criminels lors des opérations policières », de les former et de gérer avec eux des « postes de rançonnement », explique le journal. Des membres des gangs auraient même infiltré les forces de l'ordre déployées dans l'Artibonite. Le Réseau national de défense des droits humains demande une enquête et des sanctions. Comment lutter contre la corruption en Haïti En Haïti, la plateforme Ensemble contre la corruption a présenté sa feuille de route sous l'égide du programme des Nations Unies pour le développement (Pnud). Ce document est le fruit de plusieurs mois de travail avec de nombreux acteurs de la société civile et des représentants d'institutions publiques telles que le ministère de l'Économie et l'Unité de lutte contre la corruption. Cette feuille de route contient une vingtaine de propositions que détaille Edouard Plautre, le secrétaire exécutif d'Ensemble contre la corruption qu'a interrogé Romain Lemaresquier. Du progrès dans la préservation des iguanes des Galapagos L'archipel des Galapagos a beau être isolé dans le Pacifique, à 1000 kilomètres du continent, il n'est pas à l'abri des trafiquants d'espèces protégées. Il a beaucoup été question ces dernières années, de vols de bébés tortues géantes, mais la contrebande touche aussi les iguanes terrestres et marins. Il y a quelques semaines, la vingtième réunion de la Convention sur le commerce international des espèces menacées de faune et flore sauvages (Cites) qui s'est déroulée en Ouzbékistan, a débouché sur une bonne nouvelle pour les défenseurs des iguanes des Galapagos. Ces animaux ont été déplacés de l'appendice 2 à l'appendice 1. Leur commerce est, donc, désormais interdit, sauf pour des fins scientifiques.

Donald Trump sigue atacando supuestas narcolanchas en el Caribe y en el Pacífico. Acusa a sus ocupantes de ser “narcoterroristas” del Tren de Aragua, una banda criminal venezolana que nació en la cárcel deTocorón y se ha expandido por América Latina. Sin embargo, la periodista que mejor conoce el Tren de Aragua duda de que las víctimas pertenecieran a él. Ronna Rísquez, autora de El Tren de Aragua: la banda que revolucionó el crimen organizado en América Latina, nos cuenta en este episodio cuánto hay de mito y cuánto de realidad en torno a esta banda venezolana.

David Dayen, executive editor for the American Prospect joins Sam and Emma to discuss the Prospect's affordability project. In the Fun Half: Trump is asked about releasing the full "double tap" video, something he previously said he would do, and snaps at the reporter, calling her obnoxious and insisting he never made that promise. The Chicago apartment building that was raided by a fully militarized ICE unit—only for agents to find none of the alleged Tren de Aragua members—is now evicting all tenants after being declared a firetrap.

CAFE stands for “Corporate Average Fuel Economy.” An easy definition, via the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, is a regulation: …[on] how far our vehicles must travel on a gallon of fuel. NHTSA sets CAFE standards for passenger cars and for light trucks (collectively, light-duty vehicles), and separately sets fuel consumption standards for medium- and heavy-duty trucks and engines. NHTSA also regulates the fuel-economy window stickers on new vehicles. Ending these regulations is part of complying with Trump’s “Unleashing American Energy” Executive Order and the [Transportation] Secretary's “Fixing the CAFE Program” Memorandum, according to the department’s homepage. On Wednesday, the president rattled off the investments in the United States that the auto companies have made since Trump 47 began in January. In one case, he cracked up the room by joking that they could do better than the billions of dollars they are promising: Trump added that it’s part of getting rid of more of the “Green New Scam,” too. https://twitter.com/townhallcom/status/1996322694099345577?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1996322694099345577%7Ctwgr%5E31d2137f89d95733dae2dffe91ce3f002937e448%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fredstate.com%2Fbeccalower%2F2025%2F12%2F03%2Fwatch-trump-signing-car-industry-eo-ending-burdensome-biden-regulations-n2196786 https://twitter.com/townhallcom/status/1996325044260085885?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1996325044260085885%7Ctwgr%5E31d2137f89d95733dae2dffe91ce3f002937e448%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fredstate.com%2Fbeccalower%2F2025%2F12%2F03%2Fwatch-trump-signing-car-industry-eo-ending-burdensome-biden-regulations-n2196786 Source: redstate.com https://twitter.com/WallStreetMav/status/1996587083012378947?s=20 https://twitter.com/profstonge/status/1996583802559136057?s=20 https://twitter.com/unusual_whales/status/1996582009460732232?s=20   to a seasonally adjusted 191,000, the lowest level since September 2022, with expectations of 220,000. https://twitter.com/WallStreetMav/status/1996431168883900552?s=20   fourth consecutive month-over-month decline.

The Dingley Tariff Act of 1897, which was the centerpiece of President William McKinley’s domestic economic policy. He believed in protectionism (using high tariffs to protect American industries and workers from foreign competition). Just like President Trump. Between 1897–1901 the United States had just become the wealthiest and highest-output economy on EARTH, surpassing the United Kingdom as the world's #1 manufacturing nation and #1 economy in total GDP By 1900 U.S. industrial production was roughly equal to that of Britain, Germany, and France COMBINED. Taxation without representation is unconstitutional and ILLEGAL. We, The People are now finally coming to grips with the illusions that have been installed around us our entire lives. Who is the FED?

Assistant U.S. Attorney Blasts Los Angeles County After It Votes to Ban ICE Agents from Wearing Masks Los Angeles County's far-left Board of Supervisors voted Tuesday to advance an unprecedented ordinance that would ban law enforcement officers, including federal immigration agents, from wearing masks while working in unincorporated areas of the county. The proposal passed 4-0, with only Supervisor Kathryn Barger abstaining. A final vote is scheduled for next week, and the ordinance would take effect in January 2026, according to the LA Times. Legal experts say federal immigration agents would not be required to follow a county mask ban. The county's top lawyer, Dawyn Harrison, has said she suspects the federal government will likely argue that the county law violates the Constitution, which states that federal law takes precedence over conflicting local statutes.  https://twitter.com/USAttyEssayli/status/1996040656733814854?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1996040656733814854%7Ctwgr%5E71ecedc2cdf5f5bfec40c6e10a4a461e8ffa25fd%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thegatewaypundit.com%2F2025%2F12%2Fassistant-u-s-attorney-blasts-los-angeles-county%2F   by the media and local politicians.

The “war on narco-terrorists” that Secretary Hegseth is bragging about is being run on a legal foundation poured years before Trump ever touched the Oval Office desk. Obama normalized the presidential kill list. He campaigned in 2008 promising rule of law, transparency, and restraint. He delivered a tenfold increase in drone strikes; a White House “Terror Tuesday” meeting where officials literally flipped through PowerPoint slides picking who lived or died; and a legal doctrine allowing the president to kill U.S. citizens without trial, notice, or judicial review. That doctrine – once unthinkable – is now standard operating procedure. Obama's Director of National Intelligence openly admitted in 2010 that the administration was targeting Americans based on vague criteria like whether a citizen was “involved” in a group “trying to attack us.” That’s not evidence… that’s vibes. When civil-liberties groups sued to force the government to explain the legal basis, Obama declared the entire matter a state secret. Meaning: the president could now kill you, and no court was allowed to ask why. The judiciary rubber-stamped it. Both parties embraced it. And the public largely applauded it. Then came the Awlaki killings. Obama ordered the drone assassination of: •⁠ ⁠Anwar al-Awlaki, an American cleric •⁠ ⁠Samir Khan, an American citizen standing next to him •⁠ ⁠Awlaki's 16-year-old son, killed two weeks later at a café The White House smeared the kid as a “21-year-old terrorist.” The next week a birth certificate proved he was a Colorado teenager with zero ties to extremism. The administration shrugged. Obama famously told aides: “Turns out I'm really good at killing people.” And Washington – media, political class, and voters – rewarded him. Fast-forward to 2025. Trump isn't inventing anything new in Venezuela. He's using the exact precedents Obama left behind: Unreviewable executive kill authority, expanded definitions of “enemy combatant,” secret memos. No congressional oversight, no geographic limits, zero court supervision. Obama created the kill switch. Trump just slammed it. If you cheered the drone program when your guy was doing it, you already endorsed what’s happening now. If you let the government redefine due process as “whatever we decide in secret,” you already consented to the next president weaponizing that power. And if you normalize extrajudicial force abroad, eventually it comes home. Obama built the architecture. Trump moved in. And Venezuela is learning what happens when a precedent meets a president with fewer brakes  EU corruption scandal could take down von der Leyen – Politico A corruption probe into former EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini has thrown European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen's position into jeopardy, with opponents preparing to turn the affair into a fresh push to remove her, Politico reported on Wednesday, citing officials in the bloc. Mogherini, who served as the EU's top diplomat from 2014 to 2019 and is now rector of the College of Europe, was detained on Tuesday. She was formally accused by the European Public Prosecutor's Office of procurement fraud, corruption, conflict of interest, and breaches of professional secrecy over an EU-funded diplomatic academy program. In the wake of the scandal, von der Leyen “is facing the starkest challenge to the EU's accountability in a generation,” with her rivals renewing calls for a new no-confidence vote, Politico reported. source:rt.com NATO Members Commit More Than $1 Billion to Purchase U.S. Weapons for Ukraine NATO officials from Canada, Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, and Poland pledged hundreds of millions more in U.S.-made weapons under the Prioritised Ukraine Requirements List (PURL) scheme, Ukrainian media reported. Amid Russian gains on the battlefield, they insist Ukraine must be armed “to keep the fight going.” The alliance offered these commitments while being accused of attempting to sabotage peace talks. Canada, Germany, Norway, the Netherlands, Poland, and the U.K. all announced new contributions, pushing the total put toward U.S.-made weapons bound for Ukraine toward $5 billion this year alone. These newly allocated funds come at a time when many European governments, increasingly unpopular at home, are cutting domestic programs and warning of budget shortfalls. Source: thegatewaypundit.com Leaked Transcript of EU Conference Call with Zelenskyy Highlights Fear of Trump Securing Peace for Ukraine Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was in Paris talking to Emmanuel Macron last weekend while Rubio, Witkoff and Kushner were meeting with Ukraine officials in Florida.  This telephone call is reported to have taken place the following day, on Monday. French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte, Finnish President Alexander Stubb, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy together with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre and European Council President António Costa held a conference call. A transcript of the call was leaked to Spiegel, a German news outlet. According to the narrative the assembled group of EU leaders were discussing how the Trump administration was going to betray Ukraine in order to get a peace deal with Russia. The gist of the narrative sounds accurate, though some of the EU leaders are denying the specifics of the wording used. The EU is very worried President Trump may formulate a peace agreement then present the final terms to Ukraine without the EU being involved in the construct of the details. The EU is opposed to any peaceful end to the conflict, because the EU and NATO have positioned their collective economies to only benefit if the military spending continues; they are backstopping their spending with the confiscated Russian assets.   Source: theconservativetreehouse.com   Medical/False Flags https://twitter.com/disclosetv/status/1996567491334803864?s=20 [DS] Agenda https://twitter.com/WallStreetApes/status/1996550058809188740?s=20   “Ilhan and this group, they spent a lot of money” “So, the people that work for Ilhan (0mar) are actually counting the ballots, counting the vote?” “They (Ilhan Omar’s campaign staffers) become a manager, in the precinct too.” Somalians who don't speak English are also told out how to vote “They walk with you to the booth and then they vote.

Ilhan Omar and individuals later charged or convicted in Minnesota's billion-dollar pandemic-meal fraud. Omar's 2018 victory party was held at Safari Restaurant, co-owned by Salim Ahmed Said, now found guilty of pocketing more than $12 million in fraudulent reimbursements after reportedly serving “phantom” meals. A member of Omar's campaign staff has also been convicted in the same broader scheme. Critics note Omar publicly praised the program that later enabled the fraud, and that she maintained ties with several of the participants. Prosecutors say Minnesota's COVID-era meal programs operated with almost no verification, allowing widespread abuse through Feeding Our Future and affiliated entities.

It is on purpose. It is a feature, not a bug,” Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet J. Dhillon told the Just the News, No Noise television show on Wednesday night. “And the goal is to cram as many people on there and make voters who are not particularly engaged, make it easy for someone else to help them fill out their ballot and return it for them when they didn’t care enough to do it themselves,” she added. “What we can do at the federal government level is ensure that our federal election laws are observed, and that includes each state’s requirement to keep clean voter rolls,” she added. “That is a fundamental basic.” Dhillon spoke one day after her division filed lawsuits against six Democrat-run states — Maryland, Delaware, Rhode Island, New Mexico, Washington state and Vermont — seeking to compel them to turn over to the DOJ their voter rolls to be inspected for abnormalities, outdated names or noncompliant names. She also struck a deal last week with North Carolina to force it to review and fix over 100,000 voters’ names on rolls in that battleground state that were added without complying with state law. Dhillon said her office is now on track to force through litigation, settlement or voluntary efforts at least 26 states to clean up voter rolls. “We’re now in litigation with 14 states. So the six yesterday included Maryland, Delaware, Rhode Island, New Mexico, Washington State and Vermont. That adds to eight we already had going,” she said.

Tara kicks off the morning with one of the funniest wildlife stories you'll ever hear — a masked raccoon who broke into a Virginia liquor store, got absolutely schnockered, and passed out next to the toilet.

With gunboats parked in the Caribbean, fast boats blown up, and the White House threatening to invade, we unpick some of the narratives surrounding Venezuela's regime — and its gangs. Is the Tren de Aragua really exporting fentanyl to the US? Is Nicolas Maduro the head of a global narcotics trafficking organization? And is the Cartel of the Suns actually a thing? Featuring guest interviews and footage from a famous 1993 bust, we dive into the past, present — and uncertain future — of one of DC's longest-standing regional feuds, and ask: is it truly all about drugs?
