Feeding Our Future boss Aimee Bock called an all-hands meeting and told her accomplices to stop “flaunting” their wealth as a federal investigation zeroed in on their alleged fraud, FBI Special Agent Jared Kary told a jury Thursday.
Kary took the stand for a second day as he explained how he helped uncover Bock’s alleged facilitation of a scheme to defraud the federal government of $250 million in child nutrition funds.
On trial with Bock is Salim Said, who co-owned Safari Restaurant in Minneapolis and ASA Limited, which operated a food site out of a deli in St. Paul.
Quickly, just for clarity. Narrative engineers from Reuters News Agency are kicking up dust about Elon Musk firing a dozen members of the U.S. Digital Services Office. However, what Reuters does not say is that the “USDS” is the agency vehicle that was renamed “DOGE” during the Trump Executive Order [SEE HERE].
That’s right, Musk fired the preexisting staff within his own agency. (snip) Now see Section Three DOGE Structure (emphasis mine): “Sec. 3. DOGE Structure. (a) Reorganization and Renaming of the United States Digital Service. The United States Digital Service is hereby publicly renamed as the United States DOGE Service (USDS)
The U.S. Internal Revenue Service is preparing to fire thousands of workers in the coming days, a move that could squeeze resources at the tax-collecting agency during the critical tax-filing season, )snip)
Officials from the Office of Personnel Management, which oversees federal hiring, ordered all agencies on Thursday to dismiss their probationary employees, workers who are newer to their positions and do not enjoy full job protections.

The opening sentence of Article II of the U.S. Constitution is straightforward and grants one person, the president, broad powers: “The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America.” Nineteen rebellious states are now attempting to usurp that executive power, which the Constitution vests solely in the president. (snip)New York’s anti-Trump Attorney General Letitia James and 18 other rogue state AGs, in concert with low-level New York federal Judge Paul Engelmayer, have tried to usurp this executive power by prohibiting Trump and Bessent from effectively reviewing Treasury records to eradicate waste and fraud in federal spending.
Well, well, well—looks like Revolver was right again. While other conservative outlets turned a blind eye to NewsGuard or, some even played along with their “media literacy” scam, we were out in front, boldly calling them out for exactly what they were—a tool of the regime, designed to blacklist and silence conservative media under the phony guise of fact-checking. So, how were we right? Well, as we speak, Microsoft, one of their biggest backers, is now scrambling to distance itself from the fake fact-checking group. Also, this probably won’t come as a shock, but the infamous USAID was also backing NewsGuard.
there’s one thing that has sent the Dems into a full-blown meltdown, it’s DOGE investigating waste and fraud. And now, we’re getting a crystal-clear picture of how Dems have managed to keep their wildly unpopular agenda alive—by treating government programs like their own personal piggy bank. (snip)
And nowhere is the panic more obvious than in the dark, hooded eyes of Maxine Waters, who has suddenly crawled back into the spotlight after four years of blissful silence. Mad Max is so spooked by Elon and DOGE exposing fraud that she accidentally let the cat out of the bag—giving Americans a front-row seat to what a cornered criminal really sounds like.

Marco Rubio is stone cold focused (perf). JD Vance is personable and pragmatic. Zelenskyy is deferring and at the very end the Ukrainian officials exhibit the attitude they are known for within Eastern Europe. Perhaps Americans don’t know (snip), but the scope of corruption within the Ukrainian government is so well known, most Eastern Europeans view current Ukranian govt officials as mere financial beneficiaries to the indulgences of war.
U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi launched legal action this week against three top New York officials, including Gov. Kathy Hochul and the state's AG Letitia James, over their so-called "sanctuary" policies that shield illegal aliens from federal deportation operations.According to the 16-page complaint naming Hochul, James, and Commissioner Mark Schroeder of the state's Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) as defendants, they are accused of impeding federal immigration enforcement's ability to arrest and deport violent criminals, thereby endangering the lives of law-abiding Americans.

A federal judge on Feb. 14 rejected an emergency bid by eight inspectors general fired by the Trump administration to have their jobs restored.

Tone deaf and powerless, Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee ran out of stall tactics and finally had to submit to a vote Thursday on the confirmation of President Donald Trump’s FBI director nominee, Kash Patel.
“We have a pretty good idea of what the outcome will be today, and I am appalled that my Republican colleagues are prepared to confirm a man so publicly hostile to the agency, its people, its goals, its mission, that he intends to lead,” Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., said.
Yes Dick, we all did. Last week. When Democrats delayed the vote for a week, and again Thursday morning when Democrats forced

In a clear display of political bias, celebrities recently canceled multiple performances at the Kennedy Center in protest of President Donald Trump. Once celebrated for its commitment to artistic expression, this arts institution has allowed partisan politics to shape its programming decisions. Trump’s shakeup, in which he ousted 18 members of the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts board and replaced them with a Trump-aligned majority, has made left-wing crybabies spiral into a black hole and flee the Washington, D.C. institution.
A bombshell report has exposed that more than $151 million meant to feed soldiers at 11 of the Army’s largest bases was repurposed for undisclosed uses.
This revelation, first reported by Steve Beynon of Military.com, comes as junior enlisted soldiers struggle to access nutritious food on base, with some being forced to survive on substandard meals.
The funds in question are deducted directly from service members’ Basic Allowance for Subsistence (BAS), a monthly $460 allotment meant to cover food costs for soldiers living in barracks.
Would this explain a few things? You bet! As for me, though, I prefer Hanlon's Razor in these moments.
James Carville made some news last night on a podcast with Al Hunt, lamenting the inability of Democrats to organize any effective opposition to Donald Trump. Trump's flood-the-zone strategy for the first weeks back in the Oval Office has Democrats floundering, even someone as experienced as Carville. "We're getting overwhelmed," he told Hunt, and "it's all too incomprehensible."

Federal District Judge Tanya Chutkan is poised to issue a temporary restraining order that would block nearly everyone in the Trump administration from accessing any data produced by any federal agency or dismissing any federal or contract workers. The order comes in response to a suit filed by 13 states — New Mexico, Arizona, Michigan, California, Connecticut, Hawaii, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nevada, Oregon, Vermont, and Washington — claiming "that President Trump has violated the Appointments Clause of the United States Constitution by creating a new federal Department without Congressional approval and by granting Musk sweeping powers over the entire federal government without seeking the advice and consent of the Senate."
New York Attorney General Letitia James appeared outside of federal court in New York City on Friday to talk about a lawsuit that she and others Democrat attorneys general had filed against the Trump administration in regard to the actions of DOGE and access to information. James is trying to stand in the way of DOGE's effort to root out fraud, waste, and abuse. During her remarks, she spewed a bunch of things that weren't true. She claimed Elon Musk was a "private individual" who "no one elected," and "no one has allowed to have access" to this information.

Democratic Party strategist James Carville admitted that the pace at which President Trump is fulfilling his executive duties is throwing his party off balance.
In the latest episode of the “Politics War Room” podcast, Carville lamented how Democratic lawmakers are floundering in trying to stop the president’s second term agenda.
“We’re getting overwhelmed,” he told podcast co-host Al Hunt.
“Things that we thought that would kill a political career, would be poisonous for whatever reason, this guy keeps chugging along.”

Former Special Counsel Jack Smith received $140,000 in pro bono legal services from high-profile DC firm Covington and Burling last month, shortly before he resigned from the Justice Department.
The legal services were labeled as a ‘gift’ on Jack Smith’s financial disclosure obtained by Politico.

The Gaza strip is still home to “hundreds of miles” of Hamas terror tunnels — and it could take years to eliminate them and vanquish the terrorist organization, Israel’s consul-general revealed to The Post. “It will take time,” Ofir Akunis said during a sitdown this week. “We can stop [the war] after Hamas is not there — maybe it will take another year or two years.”
“It took six years, six years for the Western world, to defeat Germany,’ Akunis noted. Should hostilities resume, the war would “look different” than the last 15 months of fighting, Akunis said, declining to elaborate.
TEL AVIV — In a ceremony surrounded by masked Palestinian militants and rubble from the Gaza war, Hamas released three Israeli hostages holding U.S., Russian and Argentinian citizenships on Saturday.
It was the sixth group of hostages freed as part of a fragile ceasefire deal that nearly collapsed this week between the Palestinian militant group and Israel. In exchange for the released hostages, Palestinian authorities expect Israel to release 369 Palestinian prisoners and detainees.
The three male civilian hostages released are Sagui Dekel-Chen, a 36-year-old dual U.S.-Israeli citizen, Alexander Trupanov, a 29-year-old dual Russian-Israeli citizen, and Yair Horn, a 46-year-old dual Argentinian-Israeli.
