U.S. civil rights groups are warning that an executive order signed by President Donald Trump on Monday lays the groundwork for reinstatement of a ban on travelers from predominantly Muslim or Arab countries. The American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC) said the new order relied on the same statutory authority used to justify Trump's 2017 travel ban and offered even "wider latitude to use ideological exclusion to deny visa requests and remove individuals" who had already entered the country. It unveiled a new 24-hour hotline

The Pentagon announced the Department of Defense will provide military airlift support to support the DHS in deporting detained illegal aliens.

Social media users have pointed out that the Democrat was left out of the search engine's results when people looked for 'US presidents in order.' It showed Barack Obama and both of Trump's terms - but nothing for Biden, who served between 2021 and 2025.

This is fabulous - way to go!!!

President Donald Trump was so busy on his first day in office that it’s been a challenge to cover everything that he did. The best way to know which are the best ones to discuss is to look at the way Democrats are reacting to them. His pardon of J6 prisoners was a big one; they’re really up in arms about that. Another one was his executive order ending birthright citizenship for children born to illegal immigrants in the Now, Democrat attorneys general from 22 states

President Donald Trump’s recent executive order targeting electric vehicle charging infrastructure funding could have significant implications for Elon Musk’s Tesla, which has benefited from these programs in the past. TechCrunch reports that in direct move against the EV industry, President Donald Trump has signed an executive order declaring that “All agencies shall immediately pause the disbursement of funds” from programs created by the Inflation Reduction Act and Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.

Former U.S. Marine Daniel Penny accepted Vice President-elect J.D. Vance’s invitation Friday to be his personal guest at the upcoming Army-Navy game over the weekend. A jury found Penny not guilty of criminally negligent homicide on Monday relating to the death of Jordan Neely, a 30-year-old homeless man, who the now-former defendant held in a chokehold to protect surrounding passengers on a New York City subway in May 2023. Vance praised Penny for his “courage” and criticized Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who prosecuted the former Marine, for attempting to “ruin [Penny’s] life for having a backbone” in a Friday post on X.

A sobering report by the Public Building Reforms Board paints a grim picture of federal employees’ blatant disregard for duty. The report found that 94% of federal workers do not show up in person regularly, highlighting the poor service delivery and complacency in government offices. The Department of Energy, the Agency for Global Media, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture topped the list of absentee/ absconders with abysmal occupancy rates of 0%, 2%, and 6%, respectively. The Department of Veterans Affairs (7%), the Environmental Protection Agency (8%), the Department of Labor (9%), and the Nuclear Regulation Commission (9%) followed closely with their appalling numbers. Federal agencies with the highest office occupancy rates include

The Texas General Land Office is offering President-elect Donald Trump a 1,400-acre Starr County ranch as a site to build detention centers for his promised mass deportations of undocumented immigrants, according to a letter the office sent him Tuesday. Land Commissioner Dawn Buckingham said in the Tuesday letter that her office is “fully prepared” to enter an agreement with any federal agencies involved in deporting individuals from the country “to allow a facility to be built for the processing, detention, and coordination of the largest deportation of violent criminals in the nation’s history.” The state recently bought the land along the U.S.-Mexico border in the Rio Grande Valley and

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) suggested in a recent interview that the DOJ staff is worried it will become a “law firm” for President-elect Trump during his second stint in the White House. His claim came shortly after Trump tapped former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi to lead the DOJ following former Rep. Matt Gaetz’s (R-Fla.) withdrawal from consideration. “So, she’s really presiding over the bureaucracy,” Raskin, the ranking member of the House Oversight Committee, told MSNBC’s “Alex Wagner Tonight” in an interview Thursday. “That is where she will be the key transmission belt between Donald Trump’s orders and then making the bureaucracy move.”

Former FBI Director Andrew McCabe said the bureau would be endangered if Kash Patel, a former aide to President-elect Trump, is nominated and confirmed to lead the agency. “No part of the FBI’s mission is safe with Kash Patel in any position of leadership in the FBI, and certainly not in the Deputy Director’s job,” McCabe told CNN’s Kaitlan Collins on Thursday evening, adding that “The scope of authority is enormous.” “If you enter into that position with nothing more than a desire to disrupt and destroy the organization, there is a lot of damage someone like Kash Patel could do,” he said.
