Not only did local California cities and counties ignore tjousands of ICE detainers, they also used taxpayer funds for legal aid to protect felons from deportation, as I reported for the California @CityJournal team.

Reporters are rightly focused on the midterms right now -- but the DAO Awards for Investigative Journalism are right around the corner -- coming up Nov. 19! 2026 Finalist for the top prize (and a runner-up for last year's) @MegEBrock went 🎙️ On Background with us to talk about her in-depth piece revealing Biden’s clandestine plan to trans child welfare. Brock paintakingly FOIA'ed documents to get the goods. @HDaofeng @NJC_YAF GREAT reporting here - TAKE A LISTEN:
🚨A reporter pried a 78-page document out of the federal government. It revealed a $20 million Biden plan to rewire the child welfare system around transgender ideology, and it was already running. GAI fellow and investigative journalist @susancrabtree alongside GAI Vice President @Eric_Eggers talk with The Daily Wire's @MegEBrock about what she found: A five-year plan to make foster and adoptive care "affirming" Parents labeled abusers for affirming a child's sex Agencies screening kids as young as three A Biden "speed dating" event for trans activists Chapters: (0:00) The plan and the $20M grant (3:14) Parents called abusers (9:12) Screening three-year-olds (14:36) The "mental injury" letter (24:55) The "speed dating" event

Becerra allowed 10 mins for 9 questions - @ZavalaA was right to accept whatever time offered and did all she could with it, but why such a tight frame?? It’s not like Becerra is out there holding rallies and working the talk show circuit.
Xavier Becerra’s team gave us about 10 minutes for our interview. Instead of asking about campaign promises if elected Governor, I asked him how he’ll handle 9 key issues he’d face in the first year. You can watch the Full interview here: kcra.com/article/xavier-bece…

Hey @SecretService, you guys should IMMEDIATELY track down this man who was just on Fox INSIDE Trump's rally wearing a "DEATH" shirt, comparing the rally to the "JONESTOWN MASSACRE" This dude is CLEARLY unstable. Trump is set to speak in SC at 12:30pm ET
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The Death logo is that of the metal band "Death" en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_(me…

Did Peltola’s campaign really think they would get away with such an obvious and ridiculous decoy plan?

Wow. Sad state of affairs when you have to repeatedly polygraph top brass.
🚨 BREAKING OVERNIGHT: SecWar Pete Hegseth has FIRED Lt. Gen. Brett Sylvia after he reportedly FAILED three polygraphs about leaking classified information to the press GOOD RIDDANCE TO ALL LEAKERS! 👋🏻 He's now under investigation over LEAKS about the Iran war, the Russia-Ukraine war and more, and the case has been referred to the DOJ Sylvia purportedly got around the Pentagon's escort rules for reporters by meeting journalists outside the building Hegseth made the right move for our country!

NEW: Multiple federal law enforcement sources tell @FoxNews that the man who was shot and killed by an off-duty FBI agent in Chicago last night was a Venezuelan illegal alien who was seen shooting into a homeless encampment. Per sources, the FBI agent was driving alone when he saw 27-year-old OSCAR D. CORRALES shooting at people in the encampment, and the agent stopped and shot CORRALES, killing him. Fox is told CORRALES was previously caught and released at the southern border by the Biden administration in October 2023, and he has a previous arrest in California in which he was released from custody with an ICE detainer ignored. nbcchicago.com/news/local/ou…

Even the top Democratic consultant in California (who super-gerrymandered the state in Prop 50) is giving props to @SteveHiltonx for the refugee ad. Meanwhile, where’s Becerra?

EXCLUSIVE: California has launched a new program delivering free luxury food boxes to welfare recipients—including organic produce, fresh-caught salmon, and Amy's prepared meals. It's like free Instacart for welfare queens.

Hmmmm.
Rick! You are the one who got me to run against Karen Bass in the first place! Last year, I hit you up & said I had to run for either Governor or Mayor, but I didn't want to run against you out of respect, so I asked what I should do: you said "GO AFTER BASS" Direct quote.

WOW. The FBI raided Swalwell's home? No, it's the Beverly Hills mansion where he lived for a while with billionaire benefactor Stephen Cloobeck, who backed his campaign for governor. Swalwell's actual address has long been in question.

I've uncovered why LADWP water rates are skyrocketing. LADWP's supplier said water conservation was too successful, leading water use/revenue to collapse— justifying a 40% rate hike. They asked us to save water, so we did. But we saved too much, so they're spiking our rates.
An independent, non-city-affiliated audit of Los Angeles Department of Water and Power rates has been ordered by Mayor Karen Bass, her office says. ktla.com/news/local-news/ind…

NEW in @RCPolitics: El Sayed is trying to convince voters that he loves America, has disavowed the Muslim Brotherhood, and is no longer associated with Hasan Piker, who has said America deserved 9/11. But he also has defended questionable immigration circumstances surrounding Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar’s naturalization process. “When [Trump] goes after Congresswoman Omar, when he goes after me, he’s going after that idea of America,” he stated. On Tuesday night, Omar was scheduled to campaign with Piker at a sold-out event in Minneapolis. FULL STORY in the link below:
