US Rep. Ilhan Omar’s close ties to the $1 billion welfare scam in her Minnesota congressional district are being uncovered.
Omar (D-Minn.) held parties at one of the key restaurants named in the fraud, knew one of its now-convicted owners, and one of her own staffers has also been convicted — both for stealing millions.
Venezuelan president’s blanket amnesty demand for top officials is deal-breaker for Washington
Venezuela’s president asked to keep $200m of his private wealth, amnesty for his officials and safe harbour in a friendly country as part of a deal with Donald Trump to step down and flee, sources said.
Those familiar with a phone call between the two leaders told The Telegraph that the plan fell apart owing to Nicolas Maduro’s demands for a blanket amnesty for as many as 100 top officials.
During the 15-minute call, the two leaders also disagreed on how to set up a transitional government and on the location Mr Maduro would flee to from Venezuela.
A man has been arrested in the Jan. 6, 2021, pipe bomb case, and is expected to appear in court later Thursday, according to a person familiar with the development who was granted anonymity to discuss the sensitive case.
No arrests had previously been reported in connection with pipe bombs discovered outside the headquarters of the Democratic and Republican National Committees on the same day as the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection. The bombs, which the FBI has described as “viable” but did not detonate, were believed to be planted the day before.
Update – Suspect ID’d
The suspect arrested for planting pipe bombs outside the Republican and Democratic National Committees ahead of the Jan. 6, 2021, riots has been identified as Brian Cole of Virginia, sources confirmed to The Post.
They got the pipe bomber! Per NBC, he’s been identified as Brian Cole.

LIKE him or loathe him, question his inconsistencies and his many other flaws, but in my view Donald Trump’s response to the shooting of two members of the West Virginia National Guard in Washington DC by an Afghan migrant was spot on.
There was none of the pussyfooting ‘my thoughts are with . . .’ etc. Without equivocation, he immediately branded the shooting ‘an act of evil, an act of hatred and an act of terror’, adding: ‘It was a crime against our entire nation.’
Kristie Noem tweeted, “I am recommending a full travel ban on every damn country that’s been flooding our nation with killers, leeches, and entitlement junkies.”
Good thing for Congress that it isn’t a country.
US President Donald J. Trump’s condemnation of Venezuela’s illegal leader Nicolás Maduro includes his regime’s facilitation of trafficking illegal drugs into the United States. The leader of Venezuela’s democratic opposition, Nobel Peace Prize laureate Maria Corrina Machado, has accused Maduro of being chief of a criminal narcotics organization, Cartel de los Soles (“Cartel of the Suns”). US military forces have destroyed several speedboats laden with cocaine and other illegal drugs leaving Venezuelan ports.
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services decided to freeze pending immigration requests from 19 countries that the Trump administration deems “high risk” for national security reasons after an Afghan national critically shot two National Guard members in Washington, D.C., last week.
In a four-page memo issued Tuesday, the immigration and naturalization agency said all benefit applications filed by foreign nationals from 19 high-risk countries, including Afghanistan, are placed on hold until further notice. All asylum applications, regardless of the applicant’s country of nationality, are also paused indefinitely.
Under pressure from the Trump administration, Mexico turned over 55 cartel leaders in a pair of cloak-and-dagger missions
MEXICO CITY—Dozens of Mexico’s most dangerous prisoners, cuffed hand and foot, boarded army jets under heavy guard this year, a rogue’s gallery of cartel leaders responsible for smuggling tons of heroin, fentanyl, cocaine and methamphetamine to insatiable U.S. buyers.
The men were rousted from prisons, where money and corruption provided them with weapons, cocaine, booze, women and phones to run their lucrative underworld empires from behind bars, coordinating drug shipments as well as ordering killings and kidnappings, U.S. and Mexican officials said.
The prisoners had no idea of their destination.
A Pakistani immigrant and University of Delaware student was arrested with a cache of guns, ammunition and body armor, and a manifesto allegedly explaining plans to “kill all” and achieve “martyrdom” with a mass shooting on the school’s campus.
Luqmaan Khan, 25, was arrested just before midnight on Nov. 24 after cops found him in his pickup truck in a park after hours, and decided to search the car when he began acting suspiciously.
Few slogans in American politics have been repeated as often—or accepted as readily—as the claim that “immigrants do the jobs Americans won’t do.” It is invoked to justify immigration policy, defend wage structures, and explain labor shortages. Yet the statement is misleading. Americans will do those jobs if survival demands it. Immigrants will avoid them if survival does not. The issue is not nationality or culture, but incentives and human nature.
The phrase suggests that American workers are lazy or entitled, unwilling to engage in hard labor, while immigrants are uniquely industrious. But history shows otherwise. Americans have long worked in agriculture, construction, hospitality, and service industries—the very jobs now said to be abandoned. What has changed is not willingness but the incentive structure.
When Kamala Harris joined the Jihad Defense League.
On December 2, 2015, Syed Farook came to work at the Inland Regional Center in San Bernardino, California, and after a morning meeting slipped out the door. Shortly before 11, Farook returned in a black SUV with wife Tashfeen Malik, and as a first-hand account from the Policing Institute notes, “out of the blue, multiple popping sounds crackled outside.” The black-clad Muslims barged into a room where a holiday party was in progress and began shooting.
Donald Trump has unleashed ICE raids to target Somalian illegal immigrants in Minnesota following the deadly shooting of two National Guard troops in DC.
Strike teams, made up of DHS agents and other federal officers, will be deployed in the Minneapolis–Saint Paul, Twin Cities region, sources confirmed on Tuesday.
Around 100 officers across the US have been deployed in the new crackdown which comes after the president clashed with Minnesota Governor Tim Walz.
Trump goes no holds barred on Somalia: Somalians are third world garbage who do "nothing but BITCH."
He calls Ilhan & her friends garbage who come from "hell", & all they do is bitch & complain.
"Let them go back to where they came from and fix it!"🔥

A billion-dollar scandal in Minnesota has solved the puzzle of why Kamala Harris picked Tim Walz as her running mate. It wasn’t because she was drunk (although she was). It wasn’t because he is the only national politician who is dumber than she (although he is). It wasn’t because he is a Chairman Xi-approved communist (although he is).
Latin American immigrants and their descendants are assimilating to the majority culture.
The 2024 presidential election confirmed a political phenomenon that has been building for years: Hispanics are no longer a reliable Democratic constituency. Donald Trump won 48 percent of the Hispanic vote, just three points shy of Kamala Harris’s share. Perhaps even more striking, he carried 51 percent of foreign-born, naturalized Hispanic immigrants—a direct rebuke to the assumption that immigrants instinctively side with the Left.
Another day, another massive story of blue-state political malfeasance hidden by the Elitist Media nightly news. This time, there is not a peep about the exploding welfare scandal currently engulfing the state of Minnesota- which directly implicates some of its senior most elected leaders.
