In less than a week, the U.S. attorney in Miami supervising the probe of Obama-Biden era government weaponization secured indictments against Cuban communist dictator Raul Castro and an alleged money launderer for Venezuelan strongarm man Nicolas Maduro. But it was Jason Reding Quinones’ indictment against one of his own former federal prosecutors for trying to steal a sealed, classified report from Jack Smith’s investigation of President Donald Trump that may have sent the loudest shockwaves through government.

Everyone’s angry with Donald Trump. It’s true that things are getting ragged with just over five months left until the midterms. The president’s agenda is being stymied in the courts and in Congress by bloody-minded Democrat obstructionism, and by a handful of lily-livered naysayers in his own bare-majority party. His poll numbers are as bad as they’ve ever been, apart from a rough patch in the aftermath of Jan. 6, 2021. The war with Iran has hit gas prices and exacerbated the cost of living. It may be heading to some sort of deal, but cheerleaders are thin on the ground.

We've got a positive update on the story out of Orange County, California, regarding that leaking chemical tank, thankfully: On Saturday, a leaking chemical tank prompted the evacuation of tens of thousands of people in Orange County, California. The evacuated area encompasses parts of six Los Angeles metro area cities, and the incident may well lead to the tank melting down in a thermal runaway. Fortunately it appears that failure, rather than explosion, is the more likely option, although neither is what you would call "good."

Political commentator Scott Jennings gave the Iran debate a much-needed dose of plain English after he received a briefing from a senior Trump administration official. Jennings' central point was simple: President Donald Trump used force when force became necessary, then paused further strikes when diplomacy had a chance to save lives. Trump's critics have spent years calling him reckless, impulsive, and incapable of restraint. Now he's showing patience, and many of those same voices still can't bring themselves to admit what sits in front of them. Trump has said talks with Iran remain active, but he has also warned his team not to rush into a weak agreement.

Socialist New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is touting his dreams for universal child care and announcing programs for children as young as 2 years old. I want to also shout outs to something that we did a few days earlier, which is make an announcement that we are extending 100,000 offers of pre-k and 3k to New Yorkers across the five boroughs,” Mamdani said. This was part of our announcement that we were adding 2,000 new 3k seats. Now, as part of these invitations that we are sending out to children across the city to be a part of this program to their parents,

suicide attacker blew up an explosives-filled vehicle near a railway track as a passenger train traveled through the southwestern Pakistani city of Quetta on Sunday, killing at least 23 people and wounding more than 70 others, according to local reports. The banned separatist group known as the Baloch Liberation Army (BLA), which seeks independence from Pakistan’s central government, claimed responsibility for the attack in a statement. The explosion caused two train cars to derail and catch fire, according to videos shared online. The attack struck an area typically occupied by security forces and it severely damaged nearby buildings.

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., applauded President Trump for making the Abraham Accords part of Iran negotiations to end war. Trump encouraged more Arab nations to join the Abraham Accords on Sunday, including Iran. "If in fact as a result of these negotiations to end the Iranian conflict, our Arab and Muslim allies in the region agreed to join the Abraham Accords, it would make this agreement one of the most consequential in the history of the Middle East. Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Pakistan joining the Abraham Accords would be beyond transformative for the region and world. It is a brilliant move by President Trump." Graham wrote on X.

Iran has reportedly agreed to give up its stockpile of enriched uranium as part of the deal announced by President Trump Saturday. Tehran has agreed to a statement pledging to relinquish its cache of highly enriched uranium — believed to be enough to build 11 nuclear bombs — the New York Times reported, citing two American officials. The disposal of the highly enriched uranium, which Trump refers to as “nuclear dust” was a major sticking point in negotiations between the United States and the Islamic Republic. While Iran fought to address the status of its nuclear stockpile after an agreement to end the war had been reached,

In the wake of several close elections and a few Republican upsets, Democratic Party elites are increasingly embracing rhetoric that suggests a growing contempt for the will of the voters and an eagerness to circumvent the democratic process to beat the opposition party. The redistricting wars have resulted in Republicans gaining a modest advantage in the upcoming race for control of the House, and legal setbacks to Democratic countermeasures have resulted in pivotal political leaders voicing their frustrations in increasingly provocative ways.

The Daily Signal’s Mehek Cooke sits down with House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, for a wide-ranging conversation on the Southern Poverty Law Center, the Justice Department, the “Arctic Frost” investigation of Republicans by the administration of President Joe Biden, and the larger questions facing voters heading into the midterms. The discussion begins with a central question: Who gets to define hate and extremism in America, and what happens when powerful institutions use public trust as political cover?

Law enforcement authorities are responding to shots that were fired near the White House grounds, FBI Director Kash Patel said. Journalists working there Saturday reported hearing a series of gunshots and were told to seek shelter inside the press briefing room, where U.S. Secret Service officers prevented them from leaving. There were no immediate reports of any injuries. On X, Secret Service said it was “aware of reports of shots fired near 17th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue NW” — one block from the White House — and was “working to corroborate the information with personnel on the ground.”

Two Chinese nationals in Virginia face federal money-laundering conspiracy charges connected to two of the world’s most notorious and dangerous Mexican drug cartels, federal prosecutors announced Friday. Ruhan Zhen and Hongce Wu have been charged by the Department of Justice, accusing the pair of conspiring to launder money in connection with transnational criminal organizations, including the Sinaloa and Jalisco New Generation cartels. Both groups have been designated as foreign terrorist organizations by the Trump administration.
