Fall From Grapes: Winery Owned by Ilhan
Omar's Husband Folds One Year After Omar
Said It Was Worth Up to $5 Million

The California-based winery owned by Rep. Ilhan Omar's husband has folded, according to business records reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon. The move came nearly one year after the Minnesota Democrat filed a financial disclosure that listed the winery's value at up to $5 million—and roughly a week after Omar amended the disclosure to state that the winery had no value at all. The winery, eStCru, filed for termination with the California secretary of state's office on April 4, records show. The form was signed by Omar's husband Tim Mynett's business partner, former DNC adviser Will Hailer. It's a major fall from grace for the winery—at least on paper.

I hope that there are a lot of clueless investors who lost their shirts in this business but she probably somehow got taxpayer money involved in her little enterprise.

The winery "was" worth $5M, as long as taxpayer money was laundered through it.

The winery never existed. It was an office in town. No one worked there. This is money laundering, pure and simple.

The Department of Justice on Friday directed the Bureau of Prisons to expand death penalty protocols to include pentobarbital injections and firing squads as part of broader actions to strengthen the federal death penalty. "Today, the Department of Justice acted to restore its solemn duty to seek, obtain, and implement lawful capital sentences — clearing the way for the Department to carry out executions once death-sentenced inmates have exhausted their appeals," the DOJ memo obtained by Fox News read. "Among the actions taken are readopting the lethal injection protocol utilized during the first Trump Administration, expanding the protocol to include additional manners of execution such as the firing squad, and streamlining

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. — Millions more Americans might qualify for dual Canadian citizenship under a recent change to Canada’s requirements that has led to a surge in applications from its southern neighbor. For people like Zack Loud of Farmington, Minnesota, it was a surprise to learn that under a new law, Canada already considered him and his siblings citizens because their grandmother is Canadian. “My wife and I were already talking about potentially looking at jobs outside the country, but citizenship pushed Canada way up on our list,” he said. Since the new law took effect on Dec. 15, immigration lawyers in the United States and Canada say they have been overwhelmed

In 1995, ‘Adam’ Hisham Hamawy testified for the defense in the trial of Sheikh Omar Abdel Rahman: the Egyptian Islamic terror leader linked to the World Trade Center bombing. Now, Hamawy is running for Congress in New Jersey while promising to defund the military, abolish ICE, and dismantle the Department of Homeland Security. Hamawy, an Egyptian Muslim currently working as a plastic surgeon in New Jersey, has been in the news more recently for his Gaza advocacy, demanding that Israel stop its military campaign against Hamas, and in his recent interview with Hasan Piker, a Turkish social media influencer who praised the USSR and defended Hamas, the candidate accused our military of

RINO Senator John Cornyn’s team left up an old YouTube video on his official Senate channel where the Texas RINO openly pushes amnesty for illegal aliens, and it stayed there until conservatives unearthed it this week. While Cornyn pretends to be a born-again border hawk in his desperate fight to survive a MAGA primary challenge, his own Senate YouTube page was still hosting a video that proves exactly where his heart lies: open borders, amnesty, and America Last. The video, first highlighted by grassroots warrior Scott Presler, shows Cornyn advocating for policies that would reward lawbreakers with legal status. His team “forgot” to scrub it from the official record… or maybe

Last year, on the 13th anniversary of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, an unconstitutional program he had conjured into existence by executive fiat, Barack Obama was singing its praises. "DACA was an example of how we can be a nation of immigrants and a nation of laws," Obama said. "And it's an example worth remembering today, when families with similar backgrounds who just want to live, work, and support their communities, are being demonized and treated as enemies." And it’s all a lie. Since President Donald Trump returned to office, his administration has arrested nearly 300 DACA recipients nationwide — 75 of them in Texas alone,

A Virginia state senator told colleagues he understands rural America because he grew up watching “The Dukes of Hazzard.” Democratic state Sen. Lamont Bagby made the claim during a floor debate on the state’s gerrymandering amendment, according to video posted by WJLA reporter Nick Minock. Bagby pushed back on Republicans who argued Democrats have no grasp of rural life. “I grew up watching the Waltons. I grew up with Opie. I even watched the Dukes of Hazzard. I think I know a little bit about rural America,” Bagby said, apparently referencing “The Waltons” and “The Andy Griffith Show” alongside the hit CBS series. He then rattled off characters from

It has been revealed that President Trump's Acting TSA Administrator, Ha Nguyen McNeil, has a history of advocating for open borders, as well as diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies. McNeil has been leading the agency since April 2025, records show. Jack Posobiec, senior editor of Human Events, was the first to report on the matter, revealing McNeil's previous history with the Obama-Biden administration, which included reversing Trump's executive orders on border security during Joe Biden's 2020 presidential transition. McNeil, an alumnus of Obama's National Security Council, worked as the Chief Operating Officer of the Business Software Alliance (BSA) from September 2019 to April 2021. She was reportedly recruited

Many have described New York City mayor Zohran Mamdani as a terrorist-supporting communist who hates America. His defenders dispute this characterization, but the evidence keeps piling up against them. Earlier this month, Mamdani signed an "emergency" order banning large public gatherings during the World Cup, a soccer tournament held every four years. The United States is cohosting the event this summer along with Canada and Mexico—a demeaning affront to American exceptionalism. Adding insult to injury, the World Cup is taking place during what is supposed to be the glorious celebration of our 250th birthday. New York was initially planning to allow members of the public to gather in Times Square

When Hung Cao was 4 years old, the U.S. military rescued him to freedom, evacuating him and his immediate family—seven people, two suitcases—from Saigon just hours before the capital of South Vietnam fell to the communists. What was a stroke of good fortune for Cao has worked out pretty well so far for America, too. Cao has spent a lifetime since then repaying the U.S. He graduated from the Naval Academy at Annapolis and served as a Navy diver and explosive ordnance disposal officer with deployments to Iraq, Afghanistan, and Somalia, retiring from active duty in 2021 as a captain. In 2024, as a candidate for U.S. Senate from Virginia,

Joe Biden has told his absurd Charlottesville story so many times that it has become folklore. He has framed a 2017 rally in Virginia as a moral turning point and the moment that supposedly compelled him to step in and “save” the country, and run for president in 2020. Biden’s claim was emotionally effective — even if difficult to believe — which is exactly why it has been repeated so often. But the narrative is even more laughable when you juxtapose it with what the Department of Justice is now alleging.

Marty Baron, the left-wing extremist who ran the Washington Post into the “Democracy Dies in Darkness” ditch between 2013 and 2021, has finally admitted the corporate media engaged in a cover-up of former President Joe Biden’s blatantly obvious mental and physical decline. During an address at something called the Peter F. Collier Awards for Ethics in Journalism at New York University, Baron slipped this in between his attacks on President Trump: Each of us probably can point to other instances where we went astray.

What do you steal from a city that has nothing worth stealing? The answer in the failed disaster area that is Detroit is you just break down and steal the everyday infrastructure of the city. Remember all the stories about freeway lights getting stolen? The Michigan Department of Transportation says one-fifth of the lights along freeways in Metro Detroit aren’t working — and copper thieves are mainly to blame. MDOT spokesman Rob Morosi said roughly 20 percent of the lights on poles and beneath overpasses on freeways in Wayne, Oakland, Macomb and St. Clair counties are dark. The main reason for many of the outages, according to Morosi, is copper thieves

Greg Gutfeld absolutely destroyed Jessica Tarlov on The Five on Thursday, and boy did things get crazy. It was the kind of television that makes you put down your phone and actually pay attention. The two went back and forth, screaming at each other over the question of whether the American right-wing threat narrative has always been overblown, ginned up, or an outright fabrication. And boy did Gutfeld come in swinging… and he never really stopped, either. It started when Tarlov pushed back on Gutfeld's characterization of hate crime hoaxes, demanding examples.

The Southern Poverty Law Center scandal is reverberating everywhere today. We always knew the SPLC was a fraud perpetrated for the benefit of the Democratic Party, but I, for one, never imagined that it was actually funding the organizations that it excoriated. But with hindsight, it makes sense: the SPLC needed to keep alive absurd groups like the Ku Klux Klan to keep the money coming in, so that it could smear completely innocent organizations like Turning Point USA, Coral Ridge Ministries, the David Horowitz Freedom Center and the Family Research Council, which was its true purpose. This is what makes the claim of SPLC’s defenders that

Now that the Southern Poverty Law Center is being exposed, it is important to look back at some of the outrageous claims made by this group in the past. It is absolutely amazing to think that in 2015, they put Dr. Ben Carson on an ‘extremist’ list. Is ‘extremist’ one of the words that comes into your mind when you think of Carson? Perhaps when they targeted one of the most renowned and highly respected pediatric brain surgeons in the entire country in this way, it was a clue that they were not operating in good faith. They were eventually forced to take Carson off the list and then apologized…

Democrats and their ideological allies really do hate America. Earlier this week, Democrat Senator Chris Murphy highlighted a disputed news story claiming that a shadow fleet of several dozen Iranian vessels had successfully eluded the U.S. Navy’s blockade near the Strait of Hormuz. Above what appears to have been Iranian propaganda, Murphy wrote one word: “Awesome.” How much does a Democrat senator have to hate the country he putatively represents to root for a foreign enemy presently engaged in battle with the United States? Murphy’s choice to side with Iran’s Islamic terrorists over American servicemembers should surprise no-one.
