Bodycam Footage Exposes Drunk Democrat Assistant AG Screaming At Cops — Watch The Officer Instantly Shut Her Down

(DC Pundit) – Another day, another Democrat caught on camera proving they believe the law applies only to the little people. This time, it was Special Assistant Attorney General Devon Hogan Flanagan of Rhode Island, a Democrat appointee, who decided to add “public embarrassment” to her résumé.

On Thursday night, Hogan was arrested in Newport after she and a friend, Veronica Hannan, refused to leave the popular Clarke Cooke House restaurant. According to the Newport Police Department, officers were dispatched around 9:51 p.m. on August 14 following multiple complaints about the pair’s behavior. What followed was a meltdown that would make a Real Housewife blush.

Bodycam footage shows Hogan repeatedly screaming “I’M AN AG” at officers, eleven times in total, as if her title was a magic spell that would make the handcuffs disappear. Spoiler: it didn’t. In fact, her attempt to bully law enforcement backfired when one officer, clearly unimpressed, shot back with the line of the night: “Good for you. I don’t give a sh*t.” That’s the kind of straight talk most Americans wish they heard more often from people in power.

But Hogan wasn’t finished. She threatened the officers, declaring, “Buddy, you’re gonna regret this,” before trying to squeeze in one last “I’M AN A—” just as police shut the cruiser door in her face. Let’s just say the ending wasn’t exactly cinematic, it was pathetic.

Meanwhile, Hogan’s partner-in-chaos, Veronica Hannan, went full Tasmanian devil. Police reports state that Hannan slipped out of her handcuffs, kicked, screamed, growled, and hissed at officers. Nothing says “respectable night out” quite like acting possessed in front of half the city.

The whole episode is just another reminder of the arrogance so many Democrat officials and their associates display when confronted with the idea that they might actually have to follow the same rules as everyone else. While everyday Americans are expected to abide by the law or face consequences, too many Democrat insiders seem to think their title or political connections grant them immunity.

Devon Hogan Flanagan’s spectacular implosion wasn’t just embarrassing for her personally, it reflects poorly on the Rhode Island Attorney General’s office as a whole. After all, if one of their own top aides can’t respect police officers in a public setting, why should citizens believe that office is serious about enforcing the law fairly?

At the end of the day, Newport’s officers deserve credit for keeping their cool in the face of insults, threats, and outright bizarre behavior. Instead of bowing to political pressure or intimidation, they treated Hogan and Hannan like what they were in that moment—unruly individuals breaking the law. That’s how it should always be.

Democrats love to preach about “accountability,” but as this case proves, accountability often seems to be reserved only for their political opponents. When one of their own gets caught behaving badly, they expect special treatment. Thankfully, Rhode Island police didn’t play along.

And judging by that now-viral bodycam footage, the American people aren’t buying it either.

High School Boys Suspended For Daring To Ask Why A ‘Trans Male’ (Female) Student Was In The Boys’ Locker Room (VIDEO)

(DC Pundit) – Loudoun County Public Schools (LCPS) has now suspended two boys at Stone Bridge High School. Their crime? Not bullying, not fighting, not cheating on a test, but daring to ask why a girl was in the boys’ locker room.

According to 7News, LCPS launched a full Title IX investigation against the boys after they were seen on video asking the obvious question: “Why is there a girl in the boys’ locker room?” Except the boys didn’t record the video. It was filmed by the female student who identifies as male — a direct violation of LCPS policy. Instead of disciplining the actual rule-breaker, the school decided the boys were the problem and brought the hammer down on them.

The school’s Title IX Office ruled the boys guilty of “sexual harassment” and “sex-based discrimination.” Guilty, for speaking out loud what every rational student was probably thinking. Their punishment? A 10-day suspension, a no-contact order with the female student, forced meetings with administrators, and a permanent mark on their academic records that could easily tank their college applications. Nothing says “fairness” quite like ruining teenagers’ futures for stating reality.

This isn’t happening in isolation. Loudoun County is one of five Virginia school districts — alongside Fairfax, Prince William, Alexandria City, and Arlington — that the U.S. Department of Education flagged for being in violation of Title IX. In other words, the same system supposedly designed to protect students from discrimination is now being weaponized to silence anyone who refuses to play along with gender ideology theater.

Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights Division Harmeet Dhillon weighed in on X.

Parents in Loudoun County have been fighting these battles for years. From the school board’s cover-up of sexual assaults in bathrooms, to the push for radical curriculum, the district has become a poster child for everything wrong with left-wing school bureaucracies. Instead of protecting kids, they protect ideology. Instead of holding students accountable for breaking rules, they punish those who dare question the nonsense.

And here’s the kicker: the boys’ so-called “discrimination” boils down to pointing out reality. If that’s considered harassment in today’s schools, then every parent should be alarmed about what kind of Orwellian system their children are stuck in.

At the end of the day, LCPS isn’t just suspending students — they’re suspending common sense. And that should concern every parent in America.

BREAKING VIDEO: Assassination Plot Against President Trump Foiled – Jeanine Pirro Announces Arrest

0

(DC Pundit) – On Monday, U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro announced the arrest of a woman who had traveled from New York to Washington, D.C. with one chilling goal: assassinate President Donald Trump.

According to the Department of Justice, 50-year-old Nathalie Rose Jones now faces federal charges including threatening to take the life of, kidnap, or inflict bodily harm upon the President of the United States. She is also accused of transmitting interstate threats online, specifically communications suggesting kidnapping and physical harm.

“She was working to have [Trump] eliminated. She’s now in custody, she will be prosecuted to the fullest extent to the law,” Pirro declared, leaving no room for doubt about how seriously this case is being handled.

***********

The U.S. Attorney’s Office for D.C. provided information in a press release: “Nathalie Rose Jones, 50, of Lafayette, Indiana, was arrested in the District of Columbia on Saturday, August 16, and charged in connection with making a series of threats on social media in which she threatened to kill President Trump, announced U.S. Attorney Jeanine Ferris Pirro.”

This case highlights two realities that conservatives have been warning about for years. First, the dangerous rhetoric from the left that paints Trump and his supporters as existential threats has consequences. You can’t scream for years that the sitting President is a dictator, a fascist, and a danger to humanity without expecting unstable individuals to take those words to heart. Second, the justice system must act swiftly and without hesitation when the safety of the President of the United States is threatened. Thankfully, in this case, it did.

President Trump, as we all know, is no stranger to hostility, politically or otherwise. From the Russia hoax to endless indictments, to a media that treats him as public enemy number one, the man has endured more attempts to take him down than most leaders in modern history. And yet, here he is—re-elected, back in the White House, and still driving his critics mad enough that some resort to violence or threats.

Nathalie Rose Jones is now facing serious federal charges, and Pirro has made it clear the government intends to prosecute vigorously. Good. Because if there’s one thing that must never be tolerated in America, it’s political violence.

The bottom line? You don’t have to like President Trump. But threatening his life is not “resistance.” It’s a crime. And in this case, justice is already on the move.

FLORIDA HORROR: Illegal Alien Truck Driver Slaughters 3 In Deadly Crash (VIDEO)

(DC Pundit) – Three innocent Americans are dead this week because an illegal alien truck driver made a reckless and illegal U-turn on a Florida highway. It’s yet another grim reminder of what happens when weak border policies collide with real life.

The driver, Harjinder Singh, entered the U.S. illegally in 2018 by crossing through Mexico. Instead of being sent back, he managed to settle in the Democrat-run sanctuary state of California, where he somehow obtained a commercial driver’s license. Yes, the same California that bends over backwards to give illegal aliens privileges most law-abiding citizens struggle to get. The result? Singh was behind the wheel of an 18-wheeler on Florida’s Turnpike near Fort Pierce this week — and three people paid the ultimate price for it.

According to authorities, Singh made an illegal U-turn across the highway, cutting directly into the path of a minivan. The violent collision destroyed the vehicle and killed three people inside. Dashcam footage from the aftermath shows Singh strolling away from the wreckage looking disturbingly calm, as if three lives hadn’t just been wiped out by his reckless decision. No panic. No emotion. Just casual indifference.

***********

The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles announced that Singh has been arrested and charged with three counts of vehicular homicide. Dave Kerner, the agency’s executive director, made it clear what comes next: “At the conclusion of his state charges, he will be deported.” Frankly, deportation is the bare minimum.

On Saturday, the Florida Highway Patrol confirmed that Singh entered the country illegally, adding another painful detail to a story that should anger every single American. A man who had no right to be here was given the ability to drive a semi-truck legally — thanks to sanctuary state policies — and now loved ones are grieving three people who should still be alive today.

When Democrats boast about protecting “undocumented immigrants,” what they’re really protecting is the next Harjinder Singh. The next criminal who never should have been in the United States in the first place.

Let’s be clear: no amount of spin can explain away the fact that sanctuary policies enabled this tragedy. Without them, Singh would not have had a CDL, and three Americans would not be dead. Yet Democrats continue pretending there’s no downside to ignoring immigration law. Tell that to the families in Florida who now have empty chairs at the dinner table.

Florida officials deserve credit for making it clear Singh will be held accountable and removed from this country once the state’s case is done. But accountability after the fact is not justice for the lives already lost. The real justice would have been preventing this man from being on the road in the first place.

Trump Torches Democrats For Paying DC Protesters: “These Are Criminals Who Support Crime”

0

(DC Pundit) – President Trump has decided enough is enough in Washington, D.C. On Monday, he announced that he is taking federal control of the Metropolitan Police Department and deploying National Guard troops to restore law and order in the nation’s capital. According to the President, the city’s spiraling crime crisis has reached a “public safety emergency,” and waiting for local leadership to get serious about the problem is no longer an option.

Before stepping to the podium in the White House briefing room, Trump signed two executive actions: one invoking Section 740 of the D.C. Home Rule Act, which allows him to federalize the city’s police force, and another directing the Secretary of Defense to authorize National Guard troops to help stabilize the city. State governors are also cleared to send in their own Guard units if needed.

The move was accompanied by the required paperwork: official notifications to Mayor Muriel Bowser and key congressional committees, which Section 740 requires if federal control is extended beyond forty-eight hours. In short: the President is doing things by the book, even as critics accuse him of going too far.

But let’s be honest, crime in D.C. has gotten completely out of control. Carjackings, assaults, and open-air drug markets are now as common in some neighborhoods as coffee shops. Tourists aren’t just dodging potholes; they’re dodging muggers and bullets. And yet, the city’s Democrat leaders seem more concerned with “equity” task forces than stopping criminals in their tracks.

According to reports, Democrats and their allies are literally paying protesters. Yes, you read that right — paying people to oppose a crackdown on crime. Because nothing says “public safety” like organized mobs yelling at police officers for doing their jobs.

Adam Swart, CEO of the protest-for-hire firm Crowds on Demand, admitted this week that demand for recruited demonstrators is through the roof — up 400% from May to July compared to last year. His company bills itself as the nation’s “largest protest company,” specializing in everything from corporate publicity stunts to “political advocacy group publicity.”

“We’re probably best known for political advocacy group publicity, that is, creating crowds of peaceful, enthusiastic demonstrators to turn out in favor of a particular cause or in opposition to one,” Swart said. “Peaceful and enthusiastic,” of course, until they’re not. Even Swart himself has admitted concern that some of these hired protesters could become violent.

Last month, he revealed that someone even offered his company $20 million to organize nationwide anti-Trump demonstrations. Twenty million dollars just to scream at the sky, Democrats sure know how to waste money when they’re not spending yours.

President Trump isn’t mincing words about this bizarre reality. “These are criminals who support crime,” he said flatly of the Democrat-backed protesters. “They [Democrats] are unelectable!”

The President’s blunt assessment cuts to the heart of the issue. At a time when Washington residents are living in fear of crime, Democrats aren’t backing the people, they’re backing chaos. Instead of standing with police officers or families who just want safe streets, they’re literally funding outrage against the very effort to restore order.

And this, of course, is the same party that lectures America about “defending democracy.” The irony practically writes itself.

For now, Trump is pressing forward with his plan to restore safety to D.C. And if the critics don’t like it, maybe they should try explaining to the victims of crime why protests against policing matter more than protecting their lives.

James Comey Melts Down, Claims Taylor Swift Helps Him Survive Trump (VIDEO)

(DC Pundit) – Former FBI Director James Comey has discovered a new coping mechanism for his Trump obsession: Taylor Swift. Yes, the man who once oversaw the most powerful law enforcement agency in the United States now turns to the pop icon beloved by millions of teenagers. Swift’s music, apparently, is what helps him navigate the trauma of Donald J. Trump.

In a five-minute rant posted on his Substack, Comey unloaded on the president and the Republican Party. “Now, don’t get me wrong—we have our jerks, millions of them, you may have noticed. In particular, there’s a stunning coarseness and ugliness in the Republican Party today. It’s upsetting, but it’s also a minority of America. On the whole, we aren’t like that, and we don’t like that,” Comey said.

Of course, the irony is thick here. A man who botched the Clinton email investigation and presided over the FBI during its most politically weaponized era thinks he’s the authority on “jerks.” His lack of self-awareness is rivaled only by his new habit of holding up Taylor Swift as a model for political resilience.

Comey continued: “I think that’s a big part of the reason so few Americans support Donald Trump when they have to see him up close, and why Republicans are so worried about what’s coming for them next year. And to be clear, I am not an advocate for weakness. Of course, we need to stand up to jerks and defend what matters. But I think we have to try to do that without becoming like them, which is what makes me think about Taylor Swift. She’s made clear that she sees Donald Trump for what he is. And last year, she urged Americans not to make the serious mistake of electing him.”

You almost have to admire the comedy of it all. A former top cop of the nation, once tasked with taking down terrorists and organized crime, now finds his guiding light in the woman who wrote Shake It Off.

Comey also criticized President Trump’s commentary on Swift: “Of course, we’re now living with the consequences of that mistake. But while our elderly, makeup-covered President is posting about whether Taylor Swift is still hot and declaring that he can’t stand her, what’s she doing? Living her best life, producing great music, and—as she urged all of us to do during the podcast—not giving the jerks power over her mind.”

This is the same Comey who insists that America doesn’t like “coarseness,” yet his entire statement drips with snark directed at the president. But, hey, as long as Taylor Swift is still cutting albums, apparently everything will be fine.

He continued with what reads like a mashup of a Hallmark card and a teenage diary entry: “She said something about dealing with internet trolls that stuck with me: Think of your energy as if it’s expensive. Think of it as a luxury item. Not everyone can afford it. I really enjoy reading Arthur Brooks, who writes columns about happiness in The Atlantic. I don’t know if he’s a Swiftie, but last week he wrote about research on the way that being rude or snarky actually hurts the rude person … Thank you, Taylor Swift. Keep the faith.”

Comey’s five-minute therapy session might have entertained his followers, but for conservatives, it’s yet another reminder of why President Trump remains such a threat to the Washington establishment. If a seasoned bureaucrat like Comey is clinging to Taylor Swift lyrics just to make it through another Trump term, then maybe Trump is doing something right.

VIDEO: NFL Team Pushes Woke Agenda With Male Cheerleaders

(DC Pundit) – The Minnesota Vikings are taking a bold, and some would say baffling, step into the world of “progressive cheerleading” by prominently featuring two male performers, Louie and Blaize, on their official team website and social media channels. Both men are listed as part of the 2025–2026 Vikings cheerleading squad and appear repeatedly in official lineup photos, Instagram posts, and team-promoted clips.

The team has even positioned Louie and Blaize as central performers, rather than merely supporting stunts or lifts, which is the usual role men have had in NFL cheer squads. “The next generation of cheer has arrived!” the Vikings proudly declared in one video clip.

Fans, predictably, were less than thrilled. Social media lit up with reactions ranging from bemusement to outright outrage. “Thank god I’m an Eagles fan,” one user snarked. Another fumed, “More dudes in women’s spaces.” One particularly candid fan wrote, “You never tire of trying to force us to pretend that this is a product people want.” Another added a cherry-on-top: “This is why the Vikings have no Super Bowls.”

The backlash is part of a growing trend where consumers are expressing frustration with corporations and organizations pushing leftist agendas, often at the expense of what their customers actually want. Brands that ignore this push for inclusivity at the cost of consumer preference have suffered consequences.

Some companies, however, have navigated the cultural tightrope more carefully. Take American Eagle, for example. Fans rewarded the brand for featuring Sydney Sweeney in its marketing campaigns—a move widely interpreted as a nod to mainstream appeal rather than a wink to wokeness. On the flip side, Disney’s live-action “Snow White” remake and Bud Light’s Dylan Mulvaney partnership became cautionary tales for companies ignoring their audience’s preferences in favor of ideological messaging.

The Vikings’ decision to promote male cheerleaders as central performers may be another example of this misstep. While inclusivity in athletics is one thing, insisting fans embrace changes to a long-established tradition without regard to their expectations appears to be a recipe for disaster.

Whether this is a glimpse into the future of NFL cheerleading or simply a marketing experiment gone awry, the message is clear: fans are watching and they are not afraid to call out what they see as unnecessary social engineering.

CAUGHT ON VIDEO: Michigan Democrat Busted In Late Night Ballot Stuffing Scheme

(DC Pundit) – It seems like every election cycle brings us another “nothing to see here” moment from Democrats caught up in questionable ballot practices. And once again, Michigan is in the spotlight.

A newly released surveillance video — the second one in just days — appears to show Hamtramck City Councilman Abu Musa, a Democrat from Wayne County, participating in what looks an awful lot like late-night ballot stuffing right before the August primary. Apparently, democracy runs on midnight drop-offs and stuffed envelopes.

Click on Detroit obtained more than 800 hours of surveillance footage through a FOIA request, and buried inside that mountain of tape were two eye-opening clips that are now front and center in Michigan politics.

***********

***********

In the first video, a black pickup truck rolls up to Hamtramck City Hall in the dead of night. Inside, three men can be seen. In the backseat? What appears to be none other than Councilman Musa himself. While he sits there, the driver aggressively shoves bundled absentee ballots into the dropbox like he’s trying to beat a personal record.

If that wasn’t enough, a second video captured only four days later shows Musa again — this time in the passenger seat of a different vehicle. He can be seen handing over three large stacks of ballots to the driver, who dutifully deposits them into the dropbox. For voters who actually believe in fair elections, it’s a sight that makes your stomach turn.

Michigan State Police have confirmed that both clips are now part of an ongoing criminal investigation. Authorities are compiling evidence for possible referral to prosecutors. So yes, there is more to this than “Republican conspiracy theories” — there’s video, and police are taking it seriously.

Click on Detroit explained: “The incidents occurred shortly before the primary election, where Musa emerged as the top contender for City Council, receiving 1,129 votes. These revelations come amid heightened scrutiny of electoral practices in Hamtramck. Two other city council members were recently charged with election fraud related to the 2023 race, involving similar allegations of bundled ballot submissions.”

In other words, this isn’t an isolated case. It’s starting to look like stuffing ballot boxes in Hamtramck might be a tradition.

Musa, for his part, hasn’t exactly raced to hold a press conference to deny the allegations. Maybe he’s busy rehearsing his “I was just along for the ride” defense. But voters in Michigan should be asking themselves a simple question: why do these suspicious “ballot dumps” always seem to benefit Democrats?

This is exactly why President Trump has been right all along about election integrity. When you have Democrats caught on tape with bundles of ballots, and city officials under investigation for fraud, it’s not “misinformation” — it’s evidence.

If the roles were reversed, and a Republican councilman had been filmed doing the same thing, CNN would have breaking news banners running for a week straight, Hollywood celebrities would be screaming and Democrats would be calling for jail time before the investigation even started.

Instead, we’ll likely hear the usual excuses: “taken out of context,” “nothing illegal happened,” or the old classic — “Republicans are just trying to suppress the vote.” But voters watching those clips know what they saw.

At the end of the day, trust in elections is the bedrock of our republic. When people witness ballot-stuffing videos with their own eyes, that trust erodes. And when the same party keeps popping up in these scandals, it’s not paranoia, it’s a pattern.

Xi Jinping Says China Won’t Invade Taiwan As Long As Trump Is President

(DC Pundit) – President Trump has always had a knack for getting straight answers from world leaders, answers no one else seems able to extract. His latest revelation? Chinese President Xi Jinping told him point-blank that China will not invade Taiwan so long as Trump sits in the Oval Office. That’s peace through strength, and apparently, peace through Trump.

The President made the comments during a Fox News “Special Report” interview Friday, just before his planned sit-down in Alaska with Russian President Vladimir Putin to address Moscow’s ongoing war in Ukraine. Trump didn’t mince words when asked about the possibility of a Chinese invasion. “I will tell you, you know, you have a very similar thing with President Xi of China and Taiwan, but I don’t believe there’s any way it’s going to happen as long as I’m here. We’ll see,” he said.

***********

That confidence didn’t come out of thin air. Trump explained that Xi had been remarkably clear with him about the situation: “He told me, ‘I will never do it as long as you’re president.’ President Xi told me that, and I said, ‘Well, I appreciate that,’ but he also said, ‘But I am very patient, and China is very patient.’” Leave it to Trump to get the world’s most powerful communist leader to give him a personal assurance, something no bureaucrat in Washington could dream of pulling off.

Trump didn’t specify the exact timing of Xi’s comments, but the two leaders spoke by telephone in June during Trump’s second term, marking their first confirmed call of the year. In April, Trump also mentioned having received a call from Xi, though he didn’t disclose when it took place. Either way, it’s safe to say the Chinese leader knows exactly where Trump stands, and it isn’t on the side of weakness.

For decades, China has claimed Taiwan as its own territory, insisting it must eventually be “reunified” with the mainland — by force if necessary. Taiwan, meanwhile, flatly rejects Beijing’s claims and continues to govern itself as a free and democratic nation. The situation is a powder keg, and it doesn’t help that Beijing seems to be growing more aggressive by the year. Yet, apparently, not aggressive enough to test Trump. Funny how that works.

Naturally, the Chinese Embassy in Washington wasn’t thrilled about Trump’s comments being aired. On Friday, embassy spokesperson Liu Pengyu once again insisted that Taiwan remains “the most important and sensitive issue” in U.S.-China relations. Liu went on to lecture America: “The U.S. government should adhere to the one-China principle and the three U.S.-China joint communiqués, handle Taiwan-related issues prudently, and earnestly safeguard China-U.S. relations and peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait.”

Of course, Beijing conveniently ignores the fact that Washington is Taiwan’s main source of defensive weapons and its most reliable international partner. While the U.S., like most countries, doesn’t formally recognize Taiwan diplomatically, America’s commitment to the island has been strong for decades. The message has always been simple: Taiwan is not alone.

Here’s the difference: under Trump, that message actually carried weight. Xi Jinping himself admitted it. The very same China that has spent years rattling sabers over Taiwan was suddenly patient, suddenly cautious, suddenly unwilling to make a move while Trump was president. That’s not a coincidence, that’s deterrence.

It’s worth asking: would Xi have said the same thing to Joe Biden? Judging by Biden’s track record of confusion and international blunders, probably not. Leaders like Xi and Putin can smell weakness from a mile away, and it emboldens them. Trump, on the other hand, makes them think twice. Sometimes all it takes is knowing the man in the White House means what he says.

Taiwan, for now, remains safe — and the world has a very patient, very cautious Xi Jinping to thank for that. Or maybe, just maybe, they should thank the man who made him say it out loud.

Disgusting! Georgia Daycare Worker Charged Just Days Ago With Savagely Beating Boy — And She’s Already Free On Bond (VIDEO)

(DC Pundit) – A Georgia daycare has found itself at the center of a nightmare scenario for parents after a worker allegedly beat a one-year-old boy on his very first day at Little Blessings Child Care in Bainbridge.

Fifty-four-year-old Yvette Thurston was arrested Monday and charged with first-degree aggravated battery along with three counts of felony child abuse after authorities say she brutally attacked Clay Weeks. Photos shared on social media show the little boy with a black eye and cuts across his face.

Surveillance footage from inside the facility reportedly captured the attack, but authorities haven’t released it to the public. And honestly, most people probably couldn’t stomach watching it if they did.

Here’s the part that will make your blood boil: Thurston’s bond was set at just $44,000. She’s already walked out of Decatur County Jail. Think about that for a second—a grown adult allegedly beats a defenseless child, and before the week is out, she’s back on the street. Americans have watched criminals get a slap on the wrist far too often, but when it involves a child, it’s downright intolerable.

For years, Democrats have preached endlessly about protecting children, yet their soft-on-crime policies continue to make stories like this possible. If someone can allegedly pummel a one-year-old and bond out almost instantly, what message does that send?

Parents entrust their kids to daycare centers believing they’re in safe, professional hands. But the truth is, families can only depend on accountability and justice if the system is willing to enforce it.

If we can’t even guarantee safety for a one-year-old in daycare, then something is very, very wrong.
