Florida Rep. Maxwell Alejandro Frost Assaulted at Sundance Event After Racial Remarks From Attacker

Florida Congressman Maxwell Alejandro Frost recently experienced the increasingly dangerous political climate. He was assaulted during a private event at the Sundance Film Festival after an unidentified man reportedly made racist comments and referenced President Trump’s immigration policies. According to multiple outlets, the 28-year-old attacker confronted Frost in a restroom, where he allegedly boasted about being white and later told the congressman that “Trump was going to deport” him. Frost wrote in a Jan. 24 post: " Last night, I was assaulted by a man at Sundance Festival who told me that Trump was going to deport me before he punched me in the face. He was heard screaming racist remarks as he drunkenly ran off. The individual was arrested and I am okay." Thank you to the venue security and Park City PD for assistance on this incident." Witnesses at the Creative Artists Agency (CAA) party in Utah said the man punched Frost in the face as he exited the bathroo...

New Turmoil as Trump Reassigns Leadership and Noem Scrambles Amid Fallout From Alex Pretti Killing

  The political fallout from the killing of Alex Pretti intensified as President Trump abruptly removed ICE Director Tony Bodini from the Minneapolis assignment and replaced him with longtime immigration hardliner Tom Homan . The shake‑up comes as federal and state officials continue to issue conflicting accounts of how Pretti died, deepening public distrust and fueling unrest across Minnesota. Meanwhile, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem made an urgent trip to meet with President Trump—an appearance widely interpreted as an effort to protect her job as criticism mounts over the federal response and the department’s shifting narrative. Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz has openly accused the Trump administration of misrepresenting the circumstances of Pretti’s death. While federal officials insist Pretti approached agents with a gun, multiple videos show him holding a cell phone , and footage confirms that an agent removed Pretti’s firearm only after he was already on the ground...

Statement from Mike Thurmond on Minnesota

  Mike Thurmond released the following statement on the fatal shooting today in Minnesota: What happened in Minneapolis today is deeply disturbing, and it did not happen by accident. A 37-year-old ICU nurse lost his life during an encounter with federal immigration agents carrying out policies driven by Donald Trump’s extremist agenda. This death is not an isolated incident -- it is the foreseeable result of a president who has spent years vilifying immigrants, encouraging brutality, and turning federal law enforcement into instruments of fear. Any loss of life, particularly under the color of law, is a grave matter, and this death demands the highest level of scrutiny. The aggressive enforcement culture Trump has created -- marked by mass raids, expanded federal operations, and a tolerance for excessive force -- has predictable and deadly consequences. The video circulating publicly is horrifying and raises serious questions about how and why lethal force was used. While all facts...

The United States has formally withdrawn from the World Health Organization (S with

The United States has formally withdrawn from the World Health Organization (WHO) after nearly 80 years of membership, completing a process initiated by President Trump on his first day of his second term. The administration cited what it called the WHO’s “failures” during the COVID‑19 pandemic , lack of transparency, and refusal to implement reforms as key reasons for the exit. The withdrawal became official on January 22, 2026 , following the required one‑year notice period. The move ends all U.S. funding to the WHO and leaves behind hundreds of millions of dollars in unpaid dues , according to reporting on the organization’s financial records. Officials acknowledge the departure may complicate access to global health data and weaken coordinated responses to international outbreaks. Public health experts warn the decision could undermine both global and domestic health preparedness , given the U.S. had been the WHO’s largest financial contributor.

Termination of U.S. Membership in the World Health Organization (WHO) Joint Statement by Secretary of State Rubio and Secretary of Health and Human Services Kennedy

The United States withdrew from the World Health Organization (WHO), freeing itself from its constraints, as President Trump promised on his first day in office by signing E.O. 14155. This action responds to the WHO’s failures during the COVID-19 pandemic and seeks to rectify the harm from those failures inflicted on the American people. Promises made, promises kept. Like many international organizations, the WHO abandoned its core mission and acted repeatedly against the interests of the United States. Although the United States was a founding member and the WHO’s largest financial contributor, the organization pursued a politicized, bureaucratic agenda driven by nations hostile to American interests. In doing so, the WHO obstructed the timely and accurate sharing of critical information that could have saved American lives and then concealed those failures under the pretext of acting “in the interest of public health.” Even on our way out of the organization, the WHO tarnished and tr...

WH: "Murder Rate Plunges to 125-Year Low "

  President Trump Restores Law and Order Under President Donald J. Trump’s leadership, America is safer than it has been in over a century — and  brand new data  proves it.  A new report  shows  the murder rate across the nation’s biggest cities plummeted last year to its lowest level since at least 1900, marking the biggest one-year drop in recorded history.

Senate Vote to Limit Trump's War Powers in Venezuela Fails

A narrow Senate vote halted a proposal aimed at pulling U.S. forces out of unauthorized hostilities involving Venezuela. In a 51–50 decision, the chamber upheld the Risch point of order against S.J. Res. 98, a joint resolution that sought to require the withdrawal of U.S. Armed Forces from any military engagement in or against Venezuela without explicit congressional authorization. The tie was broken by the Vice President, whose vote sustained the procedural objection and effectively blocked the resolution from advancing. Three Republican senators — Collins , Murkowski , and Paul — broke with their party to oppose the point of order, aligning with Democrats who supported allowing the resolution to proceed. Their votes underscored ongoing bipartisan concerns about the scope of executive war powers and the need for clearer congressional oversight of military actions.

ICE to Take On Maine Next

By Mona Austin The Department of Homeland Security has turned its attention to another Democratic‑led state as part of its broader immigration enforcement push, announcing that additional Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) personnel have been deployed to Maine. According to the Department of Homeland Security, "Operation Catch of the Day" has begun to "target the worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens who have terrorized communities."   Agents descended on Westbrook Maine earlier in the week, with officials stating that their focus will be on individuals they describe as the most serious offenders . Governor Janet Mills responded in a statement, saying, “I recognize that many people across Maine are fearful in the wake of ICE’s announcement that it has launched an operation in Maine, and my Administration remains in close contact with municipal officials, including in Lewiston and Portland, as well as with organizations across Maine, to monitor ICE activi...

Dr. Gladys West, GPS Pioneer Who Quietly Rewired the World, Dies at 95

  Dr. Gladys Mae West — the trailblazing mathematician whose calculations helped shape the Global Positioning System and, in turn, modern life — has died at 95. She passed away on January 17, surrounded by family, closing the chapter on a life that transformed how the world moves, navigates, and connects. Born in 1930 in rural Sutherland, Virginia, West rose from a sharecropping community during the Jim Crow era to become one of the first Black women hired as a mathematician at the Naval Surface Warfare Center in Dahlgren, Virginia. There, she developed the precise mathematical models of Earth’s shape — the geoid — that made GPS accuracy possible, laying the foundation for the navigation systems now embedded in smartphones, aviation, shipping, emergency response, and global defense. For decades, her contributions remained largely unrecognized outside scientific circles. Only later in life did she receive broader acknowledgment as one of the hidden figures of American innovation — a...

DOJ Targets Don Lemon for Anti-ICE Coverage in Minnesotta

  The DOJ has put Independent Journalist Don Lemon on notice.  Harmeet Dhillon, the Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights at the  may invoke the Ku Klux Klan Act, a Reconstruction‑era statute originally designed to address violent intimidation by white supremacist groups. The DOJ’s consideration of charges follows an incident in which a group of anti‑ICE demonstrators disrupted a Minneapolis church service on Sunday.   The Ku Klux Klan Act — formally the Enforcement Act of 1871 — prohibits conspiracies aimed at threatening or coercing individuals in ways that interfere with their constitutional rights, including the free exercise of religion. Lemon was seemingly doing notgung more than hus job when covering the incident.

Trump Proclaims MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR., FEDERAL HOLIDAY, 2026

   BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA   A PROCLAMATION        Today, we honor the noble work of the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., whose commitment to justice paved the way to the full realization of the American promise.  Inspired by the tenets enshrined in our Declaration of Independence, we proudly renew our pledge to uphold our Nation's long-cherished principles of liberty, equal justice under the law, and the God‑given dignity of the human person.      Beginning in the 1950s, Dr. King pioneered a movement that would go on to triumphantly reaffirm our national conviction that every man, woman, and child is endowed by their Creator with rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.  On August 28, 1963, he stood on the marble steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C., to unify millions of voices with his legendary articulation of an immortal truth:  The measure of a person is found n...

Trump Administration Apologizes for ICE Wrongfully Detaining College Student

  Immigration and Customs Enforcement is under scrutiny after the Trump administration admitted it wrongly deported a college student trying to visit her family, and apologized for the mistake.   Any Lucia López Belloza, a 19‑year‑old Babson College freshman, was detained at Boston Logan Airport in November as she tried to fly to Texas to surprise her family for Thanksgiving. ​Within about 48 hours she was flown to Honduras, even though a federal judge had issued an emergency order instructing the government to keep her in the U.S. for at least 72 hours. ​ The government’s apology In a Boston federal court hearing, a Justice Department lawyer said “on behalf of the government, we want to sincerely apologize,” calling it an inadvertent mistake by a single ICE officer who misunderstood the court order. ​ The officer failed to activate an alert system and did not notify ICE officials in Texas that the removal had to be halted, later admitting he wrongly believed the order no...
