PROVO — Nearly 10 months after Charlie Kirk was shot and killed on the campus of Utah Valley University, a preliminary hearing for the alleged gunman, Tyler Robinson, is scheduled to begin Monday. Erika Kirk, Charlie’s widow, and Kirk’s parents, Robert and Kathryn Kirk, are expected to attend the week-long hearing, marking the first time they have been in the courtroom for any of Robinson’s legal proceedings. Robinson faces 10 charges in 4th District Court, the most serious being aggravated murder, a capital offense. The Utah County Attorney’s Office says it will seek the death penalty if Robinson is convicted on that charge.

He deserves to die by gunfire, just like he did to Charlie Kirk. I sincerely hope it can be arranged.

The controversial group Patriot Front always picks very high-profile moments to crawl out from under its rock and make a big splash. You hardly see these masked guys any other time of the year, but when a big event is underway, you can always count on them showing up and giving the mainstream media the headlines it needs to remind the country, and the world, how “systemically racist” America is and how dangerous “white men” are to precious democracy.This is just one of the reasons why so many people believe Patriot Front is an “SPLC-style” stunt. It feels very well-timed and performative, and as you likely know, it’s been proven

Mamdani Is Lying About 'Capitalist Mismanagement'

Like him or despise him, New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani is a good politician. He’s young, charismatic, and has a high-wattage smile. This is why after passing a $126 billion “balanced” city budget, he can get away with saying things such as, “Socialists just solved years of Capitalist mismanagement.” He elaborated further on this theme: Throughout this process I have been reminded of the words of the Austrian economist, Friedrich Hayek, ‘if socialists understood economics, they wouldn’t be socialists,’” said Mr. Mamdani,(snip) Being that this is a pretty arrogant statement, it’s worth asking what, exactly, has Mamdani done that would allow him to pretend that passing a budget —

The Roberts Court just handed down a majority birthplace citizenship decision on the legal level of Dred Scott and Roe v. Wade. No judge who calls himself an originalist, textualist, or in any way claims dedication to American rule of law could support the 5-4 majority in Trump v. Barbara. As the dissents and much other scholarly work show plainly and definitively, the 14th Amendment simply does not say that anyone who happens to be born on U.S. soil thereby magically becomes a U.S. citizen. “Subject to the jurisdiction thereof” means “subject to the jurisdiction thereof.” It’s not legally or verbally complicated.

The funniest part of the MSNBC report about the issue is their claim that Pulte has not been in office long enough to know who the Deep State embeds are. “I have a real question of how he would know this. This isn’t a guy who is familiar with intelligence,” said the former official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, citing concerns about retaliation.(snip) {source}How could Pulte possibly know who to fire, they lament. The likelihood of former DNI Tulsi Gabbard and current CIA Director John Ratcliffe coordinating with ADNI Bill Pulte to clean house, just isn’t something all these former intelligence officials can fathom.

You may have read the article from the New York Post about the FBI enlisting a close insider to California Governor Gavin Newsom to wear a wire and record conversations within Newsom’s circle. However, did you overlay the timeline? Remember, there is no possibility this FBI wired surveillance of Gavin Newsom would take place without the DOJ being completely aware of the operation. The person in the DOJ who would be responsible for both authorizing the operation and conducting the surveillance would have been Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco.A sensitive FBI operation carrying this political consequence would never take place without the Deputy AG and Attorney General

Former Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, gives a speech outlining the mechanics of the Deep State and how the people within it operate. At around 3:30 of the presentation, Gabbard gives a specific example of the attitude of the employees on assignment to the ODNI. Obviously, I am not certain, but Tulsi seems to be describing the FBI liaison desk within the DNI as she explains how this federal government employee refuses to participate in the DNI request.

Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson said he plans to help build a third political party, claiming the country’s leaders have stopped focusing on the needs of ordinary Americans. Speaking with the Columbia Journalism Review, Carlson said he believes there should be a “good-faith effort” to create a political movement centered on improving life for Americans rather than fighting over foreign conflicts. “I’m going to help build a third party. There should be a good-faith effort to figure out what benefits the country,” Carlson said. “I mean, if you make $60,000 a year, you’re degraded.

Elaine Chao, the spouse of Republican Senator Mitch McConnell, is said to have embarked on an official visit to China merely three days following her husband's cardiac arrest. The 73 year old Chao has been wed to the 84 year old Republican lawmaker since 1993. She held the position of transportation secretary during President Donald Trump's initial term. Images appearing in media outlets allegedly depict her in discussions with Chinese Vice President Han Zheng, occurring just 72 hours after McConnell was admitted to hospital.

As the Nazis took over Germany, they were a minority party that no one really took all that seriously. Hitler was crazy, but his ramblings weren’t thought of by most Germans or the political establishment as foreshadowing. People today forget they were not a majority, as history tends to obscure reality for the sensational. Communists in Russia and China (or anywhere they destroyed, really) were a minority, too. But you should never underestimate the ability of a distinct minority to bring about massive devastation, as once radicals gain power they tend to wipe out their opposition and move quickly to consolidate control.

Surprise! Late Hollywood icon Rob Reiner's final TV role is all about skewering President Donald Trump. The "When Harry Met Sally" director, who died in December, made an unannounced posthumous appearance in the July 3 episode of Larry David's history-themed HBO sketch comedy "Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness," which is produced by former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama. At the end of the episode, Reiner played George Washington in a sketch centered on roasting Trump without ever saying his name, and Trump's least favorite late-night comic, Jimmy Kimmel, even got involved.

Fourth of July descended into mayhem across Southern California as unruly crowds overwhelmed packed-out fireworks displays, looted stores, ignited fires and saw cops charge on horseback. The worst unrest erupted in Newport Beach, where Independence Day revelers poured into Orange County, choking traffic and triggering a police response as disorder spread near the pier. Authorities ultimately shut down businesses from the Newport Pier to Pacific Coast Highway as officers moved in to restore order. Officers were swarmed by hundreds of people who hurled bottles and other debris at them before the crowd turned on one another and began fighting.

Former U.S. Comptroller General David Walker is joining the call for President Trump, Congress – and essentially all Americans – to reign in the national debt that is now nearing $40 trillion, saying its creating an inevitable collapse of the U.S. economy that will ultimately lead to a global depression. "One of the things that we clearly have to have is we need a constitutional amendment, because only a constitutional amendment can bind the Congress to return to fiscal sanity and sustainability," Walker said last week on the Just the News, No Noise TV show.

In another case of federal bureaucrats challenging elected leaders, seven employees of the Environmental Protection Agency who signed onto a public letter opposing President Donald Trump were eventually ousted. Now they’re suing to get their jobs back. The terminated employees are suing with the backing of the litigation group Democracy Forward. Democrat lawyer Marc Elias is chairman of the board for Democracy Forward, which has filed numerous lawsuits advocating for the federal bureaucracy against elected leaders. Elias is best known for election litigation for Democrats, and for his role in pushing the Trump-Russia collusion conspiracy theory.

On Saturday, Americans celebrated the 250th anniversary of our nation’s founding. Shockingly, according to a detailed new report from the White House’s Domestic Policy Council, the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of American History (NMAH) did not. The report, titled “Saving America’s Story: How Ideological Capture at the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of American History Erases Our Heritage,” was released Saturday night during America 250 commemorations. It concludes the museum has been captured by “radical, activist ideology that is fundamentally opposed to telling the noble, honest story of the great country we know and love.” Specifically, in regard to America’s 250th, the report stated:

A family paying the electric bill doesn't care how noble a subsidy sounds in Washington. They care whether the lights stay on, the furnace runs, the air conditioner works, and the bill leaves enough money for groceries. President Donald Trump's tax law set July 4, 2026, as the deadline ending federal tax credit subsidies for new wind and solar projects not already under construction. U.S. Secretary of Energy Chris Wright called the deadline the end of roughly 35 years of federal support for wind and solar, and he noted that in 2025 they comprised about 3% of total U.S. primary energy consumption.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani's speech for our nation's 250th birthday has gotten a lot of well-deserved criticism. It was pretty awful on the whole. But there was one particular part on Friday that got a lot of attention, in which he lambasted America, attacked Elon Musk, and demonized Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The swipe against Musk was particularly nasty, saying children go hungry while the world's first trillionaire (Musk) "hungers for more." In that you can see the evil of the radical left - to demonize the people who are actually achieving and whipping up envy and class warfare. But Elon Musk responded,

As we've been reporting, most Americans are all-in, celebrating and enjoying America 250. We recognize the great gift we have been given with this nation and the principles it espouses. But even as celebrations are ongoing, you see folks on the left going all-in to attack it because of their Trump hatred or their hatred of America in general. We saw the Mayor of New York City deliver an ugly speech, for example. That was taken down with pointed responses from people like Elon Musk and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. But if there was a real sign of how far the Democrats have gone off the leftist cliff,

The wife of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, Rama Duwaji, headed off for an Islamic “spiritual wellness” retreat on the Spanish resort island of Mallorca, rather than partake in America’s 250th anniversary celebration. The “Dallas-raised, Dubai-educated, Syrian-American artist,” as the New York Post described her, went to the sold-out retreat run by The Women’s Sanctuary, where the “29-year-old illustrator and ceramist is the for-profit’s ‘artist in residence’ and among the gathering’s hosts.” The “Plants Of The Quran” retreat costs $3,400 for guests to attend.
