ICE agents arrested more criminal illegal aliens over the Memorial Day period and days after, including men convicted or charged in cases involving murder, child sexual abuse, sexual battery, robbery, burglary, drug trafficking, and violent assault. From DHS …
Despite all the cheating, corruption, and influencing, America is still a representative republic, as is the failed city of Los Angeles. Sure, Democrats might own the public unions, use NGOs as slush funds, benefit from billion-dollar super PACs known as Hollywood and the news media, and win the wink-wink mail-in voting.
Still, though, when all is said and done, even those individual union members, the NGO employees, and those who work in media and entertainment get to choose what kind of city they want to live in — and today we will find out.

Former first lady Jill Biden defended her husband, former President Joe Biden, as a presidential candidate on Tuesday, saying she believes he would have defeated President Donald Trump if he were the final nominee in 2024.
“I believe he would have beat Donald Trump in that election,” Jill Biden said in a Tuesday morning interview on MSNow‘s Morning Joe.
Transgender troops can remain in the US military, but the armed services can continue to block their enlistment, an appeals court ruled on Monday in a split decision with potentially significant consequences for the Trump administration’s anti-diversity agenda.
The divided, majority opinion by a three-judge panel of the US court of appeals for Washington DC is expected to be challenged by the government. And the case is ultimately likely to reach the US supreme court.
The ruling was held from going into immediate effect, allowing the administration time to ask the full appeals court to hear the case.
Gov. Gavin Newsom and other state Democrats bragged that they had set the state standard for protecting illegal alien criminals by not only refusing to cooperate at the state level, but actually banning and even penalizing any local law enforcement cooperation with federal immigration authorities.
Pete Hegseth has told America’s allies in Asia they cannot “freeload” on defence and must increase spending to counter China’s military build-up.
The US defence secretary said the United States would no longer subsidise their allies, echoing Donald Trump’s message to Nato leaders to shoulder more of the military burden and reduce reliance on Washington.
The Pentagon chief told a security conference in Singapore: “The era of the United States subsidising the defence of wealthy nations is over.”
Stories about corporations, businesses, and just plain people fleeing the squalor, overregulation, crime, lawlessness, lawfare, taxation, and Democrat arrogant stupidity of blue states and cities are common these days. New York’s Governor Kathy Hochul, among those who have insulted and told businesses, and the wealthy in general, they don’t belong in her state unless they’re as leftist as she is, was recently whacked upside the head by economic reality. Having chased much of New York’s tax base out of the state, Hochul recently began to beg them to come back so they could be taxed into penury yet again. Amazingly, they’re not taking Hochul up on her generous offer.
The eyes of the world were on President Donald J. Trump and Chairman of Everything Xi Jinping at their high-profile summit in Beijing earlier this month. But behind the sunny scenes of cheering children and marching soldiers, China’s economic mischief continued in the shadows.
White House science advisor Michael Kratsios has accused China of “industrial scale” theft of U.S. artificial-intelligence technology. In an April 23 memorandum, he added: “There is nothing innovative about systematically extracting and copying the innovations of American industry, and there is nothing open about supposedly open models that are derived from acts of malicious exploitation.”
There are a lot of stories about Cuba floating around right now. Some are MSM outlets acting like they have a scoop on something that’s been happening or rumored to be happening for months. Some are simply absurd and probably not true. Most aren’t actually verified by the Donald Trump administration and come from anonymous sources. I’m not even going to bother with those today. I saw this happen in the final months before we captured Nicolás Maduro in Venezuela. Most of these reporters and media outlets didn’t even care about these countries until they became newsworthy, and once they do become hot topics, they’ll publish just about anything to get clicks. I can’t do that.
In a Sunday morning letter to Prime Minister Mark Carney, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is calling for an emergency parliamentary debate to address the state of Canada’s economy.
“You promised you would deliver the fastest-growing economy in the G7. You delivered the only recession in the G7,” wrote the Official Opposition leader.
On Friday, a report from Statistics Canada showed the country’s economy contracted slightly for the second quarter in a row — meeting the technical definition of a recession.
The US, UK and Australia say they will develop underwater drone technology to protect undersea cables and boost defence, under their military alliance known as Aukus.
The uncrewed undersea vehicle (UUV) technology is expected to be ready by next year. While the project’s total cost was not stated, UK Defence Secretary John Healey said his nation would contribute £150m ($201m).
The announcement, made by the countries’ defence ministers at a security summit in Singapore, follows claims of slow progress in Aukus’s projects.
I bet Carney has something cooking with China!
Everyman L.A. Mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt is “controversial” according to the press. “Controversial” is a press code word for “Democrats don’t like him, but can’t give actual reasons why because they would sound stupid.”
Why don’t Democrats like Spencer Pratt? Because he’s standing up for normal things, and the political system in L.A., as dominated by Democrats and their satraps for decades, has made a point of not delivering those normal things.
Thousands of people around the world have received Canadian citizenship certificates as a result of a change late last year to federal law.
Half of them Americans, CBC News has learned.
In the first three months since the change, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) issued proof of citizenship certificates to 4,075 people under citizenship by descent provisions in Bill C-3.
On May 7, 2026, a local court in Wood County, Ohio, handed down a sentence that should have turned the national immigration debate upside down.
Instead, it was treated like a standard piece of local police blotter grime. Anthony Emmanuel Labrador-Sierra, a 25-year-old Venezuelan national, got four to six years in state prison and a mandatory quarter-century on the Tier II sex offender registry for pandering sexually oriented material involving a minor.
A new report from TD Economics warns that Canada is losing its highest-skilled workers, entrepreneurs, and STEM graduates to the United States through a slow, largely invisible syphoning—calling the phenomenon a “silent brain drain.” The crisis, it argues, is less about who Canada can attract than who it fails to keep.
Much of the outflow never registers in Statistics Canada’s emigration data because it occurs through U.S. employer-sponsored work visas—temporary and semi-permanent pathways that conventional brain drain metrics simply don’t capture. Of the partial data Statistics Canada was able to retrieve, the agency determined that, in 2023, 18,590 Canadian residents emigrated to the U.S. permanently, with 30 percent of those people not being born in Canada.
