Announces Congressional Run
Posted By: ConservativeYankee, 4/22/2025 7:58:48 PM
A former FBI analyst who resigned over FBI Director Kash Patel and President Donald Trump announced he was running for Congress on Tuesday. John Sullivan is challenging New York Republican Rep. Michael Lawler for New York’s 17th Congressional District. “For 17 years, I served in secret, protecting us from threats like Russia, foreign terrorists and drug cartels, and eventually the insurrectionists who stormed our Capitol,” Sullivan wrote online. “Now, I’m stepping out of the shadows to run for Congress.”

It’s been six weeks since I set out with a goal to make myself healthy again.
Inspired by Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement, I took it upon myself to stop eating the high-processed, seed oil-laden diet I had been scarfing down and record the results of embracing a whole foods diet and healthy lifestyle.
Now that I’m halfway through the process, I’m here to share what I’ve learned. A brief reminder of the task at hand: I set out to completely eliminate anything antithetical to MAHA from my diet and lifestyle. That means no seed oils, nothing processed,
Editor’s note: This is the third installment of a six-part series by pollster Brent Buchanan on the politics of the American South. Last week, Buchanan explored the shifting priorities of minority voters in the South — and why Democrats shouldn’t take those voters for granted. This week, he breaks down the unique features, and critical importance, of the Southern suburbs.
We hope you enjoy.
Few things embody American culture and consumerism better than the suburbs.
Both a subject of generational aspiration and comedic ridicule, America’s suburbs remain a bridge to a nostalgic past and the ideal archetype of the “American Dream,” where

Colony Ridge, Could Sprout More Illegal

Colony Ridge’s defense lawyer and a land developer lobbying group teamed up to draft legislation that would exempt Texas developments like Colony Ridge from certain consumer protection regulations, communications obtained exclusively by The Daily Wire reveal.
A House bill and its companion bill in the Senate would carve out an exemption in mortgage origination laws for Texas residential real estate developers, threatening to embolden developments like Colony Ridge that cater to illegal aliens and foreign nationals. The legislation has already passed through the House Committee on Pensions, Investments, and Financial Services but is still under consideration in the Senate’s Business and Commerce Committee.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s brother has been forced to shut down viral rumors that he is embroiled in a fentanyl trafficking ring — warning, “Don’t make me sue.”
Gabriel Ocasio-Cortez, 32, took to TikTok to publicly deny the allegation after a woman blasted out the false claim online earlier this week.
The original clip, which wrongly identified him as Matthew, zeroed in on a fake news article that declared that the New York Democratic congresswoman’s brother had become embroiled in drug trafficking.
“I’m the brother. My name’s not Matthew. I have no idea why they’re posting this,” he said after the video started spreading on social media.
The Interior Department is helping to increase oil production in the newly renamed Gulf of America by 100,000 barrels per day under a new policy following President Trump’s executive order aimed at “Unleashing American Energy,” The Post can reveal.
Interior Secretary Doug Burgum announced that all offshore oil drilling in the Gulf will now be able to tap multiple reservoirs at the same time — and at far higher pressure levels than previously allowed — to immediately boost output by around 10%.
The department cited a September 2023 study from the University of Texas, which found that over the next 30 years,
North Carolina is still reeling from the massive damage caused by Hurricane Helene last fall. While the cleanup and rebuilding has been slow and steady, there is still a ton of work to do.
One group that has stepped in to lend their tremendous building skills is the Amish community. There are currently thousands of Amish people, mainly from Pennsylvania, who are helping to rebuild in the western part of the state, where the most damage is.
The national media has completely ignored this amazing contribution from the Amish. These people deserve praise for their help.
Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker has ordered state agencies to review and potentially boycott business with El Salvador due to its role in detaining Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
A statement from the Democrat indicates he believes this is a strong stance in support of due process for an alleged MS-13 member and suspected human trafficker.
“The United States Constitution guarantees due process. We are witnessing Donald Trump erode our fundamental Constitutional rights in real time, and we must fight to restore the balance of power,” Pritzker said.
“The State of Illinois will stand up for the Rule of Law and do everything in our power (to) stop the Trump
25-year-old former Army intelligence analyst Korbein Schultz was sentenced to 84 months in federal prison for conspiring to hand over America’s most closely guarded military secrets to a hostile foreign power: Communist China.
The disgraced soldier from Wills Point, Texas, pleaded guilty in August 2024 to transmitting sensitive defense intelligence, unlawfully exporting classified material, and accepting bribes — all in the service of a foreign adversary.
“This defendant swore an oath to defend the United States — instead, he betrayed it for a payout and put America’s military and service members at risk,” said Attorney General Pamela Bondi in a statement.
Alex Soros, the heir to multibillionaire Democratic megadonor George Soros, in an interview mocked the founders of Facebook and Uber for having "really believed their own b---" and groaned at the mention of a climate group that his family has bankrolled for years.
Facebook and Uber founders are "a bunch of nice Jewish boys who kind of gamed the system and, 'Oh, let's not become doctors, lawyers; I'm helping the world by putting taxis out of business,'" Alex Soros, who is Jewish, told New York magazine as he sat in an Uber en route to a museum exhibition in New York.
Unlike Soros, who now oversees his father's $20 billion political empire,
As part of President Trump’s Operation Take Back America, a team of Border Patrol agents arrested ten illegal aliens in Pomona, California, on Tuesday. Nine of the illegal aliens arrested were found outside a Home Depot store. The arrests that sparked a protest by an immigrants rights group included one illegal alien convicted of a weapons charge and child abuse with serious bodily injury.
A small group of protesters appeared within hours at the Pomona Home Depot site, carrying signs that read, “ICE Out of Pomona.” The National Day Laborer Organizing Network (NDLON) posted a video on social media showing a small group of protestors chanting anti-ICE slogans.
Hundreds of Indian and Chinese college-graduate migrants in the United States have been fired from white-collar jobs in California, Washington, DC, and elsewhere,
But the migrants are pushing back with lawyers, complaints in the Indian media, and pleas to Indian-origin members of Congress.
Some are losing their jobs at Apple and the Federal National Mortgage Association, commonly known as Fannie Mae.
More are losing jobs because the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency has deleted their visas or their names from a federal database — dubbed SEVIS — that allows migrants to get work permits after enrolling in U.S. colleges. Their entries and work permits are being deleted from SEVIS

A Chicago Police Department recruit is reportedly accused of having crack cocaine in his pocket during a training exercise.
CWB Chicago said it reviewed an internal report that said the discovery happened on Monday during a narcotics arrest training scenario.
When one recruit reportedly found real crack cocaine while searching another recruit’s pocket, the suspect had an interesting explanation after being confronted about the substance’s presence.
The outlet said a trainer gave the recruit a baggie with blue stars on it that held simulated heroin, then another recruit was instructed to perform a search:
While searching the subject’s cargo pants, the recruit conducting the search found a

The O’Keefe Media Group on Wednesday released undercover video of a Defense Department Branch Chief attacking President Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
Nicolas Turza, a Department of Defense Branch Chief, called President Trump “illegitimate” and vowed to “resist him, everything he does.”
Turza also attacked Hegseth and said the 44-year-old is “insanely young” and unfit to lead.
“The same guy who tried to overthrow an election is just, like, truly setting us down a path of dictatorship.

Michelle Obama is finally revealing why she missed President Trump’s inauguration in January.
The former first lady broke down the “hard” decision on the latest episode of her and brother Craig Robinson’s “IMO” podcast.
She called her headline-making choice the “right” one despite public “ridicule” while chatting with Taraji P. Henson.
The 61-year-old explained that she “basically tricked” herself into not attending the ceremony by making sure she did not “have anything to wear.” Obama recalled, “I was like, if I’m not going to do this thing, I’ve got to tell my team. I don’t even want to have a dress ready, right?”
Joy Behar said she fears that Pope Francis will be replaced by “some conservative guy” on Tuesday’s episode of ABC’s The View, during which the show’s co-hosts used the pope’s death as an opportunity to complain about U.S. politics.
After The View co-host Sunny Hostin said she hopes the late pope will be replaced by someone similar to him, Joy Behar replied, “I wonder, though, because there might be a backlash against how good he was, and how much humility he had compared to some of the leaders in this world right now.”
When now-Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson stated in her confirmation hearing that she couldn't define what a "woman" is, that probably should have been treated as a bit of a red flag. That would have required the Senate to have any sense of shame, though, and we all know that's long been in short supply. Since joining the Supreme Court, Jackson has become perhaps the most reliable left-wing vote on the court. There is no level of partisanship she won't stoop to in order to defend a Democrat viewpoint, and that was on display again in recent oral arguments surrounding parental rights.
Texas Democrat Representative Jasmine Crockett stated during an interview with late-night host Jimmy Kimmel that she would “absolutely” take on a head-to-head IQ test against President Donald Trump.
On Tuesday, Crockett (D-Texas) told Kimmel in an airing of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” that she would go toe-to-toe with the 47th president in order to prove that she has a high IQ.
“He also called you low IQ, I’m sure you’re aware of that. Would you be willing to take an IQ test publicly head-to-head against the President of the United States?” Kimmel asked Crockett.
“Absolutely!” Crockett responded.
Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) announced Wednesday that he will not seek re-election in 2026, saying he would “pass the torch” to up-and-coming leaders in his party.
The no. 2 Democrat in the Senate posted a video message on X explaining his decision to step down after having served five terms — “longer than anyone elected to the Senate” in Illinois’ history.
“The decision of whether to run for re-election has not been easy. I truly love the job of being a United States senator,” Durbin said. “But in my heart, I know it’s time to pass the torch.”
A former senior adviser to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth who lost his job last week amid an investigation into press leaks from the Pentagon — pointed the finger in a different direction during an interview with former Fox News host Tucker Carlson.
Dan Caldwell, who has been placed on “administrative leave,” told Carlson in the interview released Monday that the Pentagon is rife with opponents of President Donald Trump and his administration’s goals. Those are where the leaks are coming from, he said.
But there’s a “less obvious place” that’s a possibility, he suggested. And he named one name that shocked viewers
Conservative Christians have flooded social media with support for Cardinal Robert Sarah to succeed the late Pope Francis because of his strong traditionalist stands on sexuality and church doctrine as well as his opposition to mass immigration and Islamism.
Why It Matters
The rising profile of the African cardinal, 79, comes at a time of ideological division within Catholicism, as the Church grapples with questions of modernity, sexual identity, and religious pluralism, and also as more right wing political movements in Europe and elsewhere have challenged what they see as the orthodoxy of a liberal global elite.
Unlike Pope Francis—who often leaned into progressive stances on social justice and inclusion—
Jack Schlossberg—grandson of former President John F. Kennedy—lashed out on social media Monday morning, accusing Vice President J.D. Vance of “killing the pope” just hours after the Vatican announced the death of Pope Francis.
The accusation comes after Pope Francis’s passing, ending his 12-year tenure as head of the Roman Catholic Church.
Vance, a Catholic convert since 2019, had a brief private meeting with the pontiff at Casa Santa Marta on Easter Sunday.
The meeting lasted about 15–17 minutes, during which they exchanged Easter greetings.
A group of Democratic congressional reps traveled to Louisiana to visit Mahmoud Khalil and Rümeysa Öztürk in a pair of federal detention centers on Tuesday as both face potential removal from the United States.
Five lawmakers — including Rep. Troy Carter, of Louisiana; Rep. Bennie Thompson, of Mississippi; and Reps. Ayanna Pressley, Jim McGovern and Sen. Ed Markey, all of Massachusetts — stopped by a federal Immigration of Customs Enforcement facility in Jena to see Khalil and then traveled to Basile, where Öztürk is detained, CNN reported.
A Democrat in the House of Representatives' progressive "Squad" is arguing that the Trump administration could soon jail people in the U.S. for a variety of non-criminal reasons, seemingly regardless of their legal status.
Rep. Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., made the comments after visiting college students Rumeysa Ozturk and Mahmoud Khalil. Both are being held at an Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility after being accused of espousing pro-Hamas beliefs. Neither are U.S. citizens, though both are in the country legally; Khalil is a legal permanent resident, and Ozturk is on a student visa.
David Hogg, the name synonymous with gun control theatrics, now holds a position of power as vice chair of the Democratic National Committee (DNC). But does he have any idea what he's doing? His latest move suggests that the answer is a resounding "no." Instead of building the party, Hogg decided to launch a $20 million campaign to primary sitting Democrats in blue districts. You read that right. This dumb kid got himself elected as vice chair and now wants to spend millions to start a civil war within his own party.“We don't want to pick unnecessary fights, but we're willing to do that if our approval rating continues
