Feds Bust 95 Illegal Alien Truckers In Arizona, Most Had California Licenses

URGENT: CLICK TO FIGHT BACK AGAINST THE LEFT!

(DC Pundit) – If you needed any more evidence that California’s policies are creating problems well beyond its own borders, here it is, rolling down the highway at 70 miles per hour in an 80,000-pound rig.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection ran a targeted operation in the Yuma Sector between Aug. 10 and Aug. 14, and when the dust settled, agents had arrested 95 illegal alien truck drivers. Every single one of them was carrying a state-issued commercial driver’s license. Seventy-six of those licenses, that’s 80% for anyone keeping score, were issued by California. Six more came from New York, with the remainder spread across a handful of other states.

The Department of Homeland Security made sure to highlight that California figure, announcing it would continue working to get illegal truckers off American roads. Acting Chief Patrol Agent Dustin Caudle said the operation was aimed at protecting the public from “unlicensed or untrained drivers” as well as from smuggling networks operating in the region.

And the haul didn’t stop at truck drivers. Agents also broke up two separate human smuggling events, taking four smugglers and 17 smuggled migrants into custody. They seized 74 pounds of methamphetamine and 169 pounds of marijuana. In total, 143 suspects from 18 countries were arrested across the broader operation.

Let that sink in. One operation. One sector. Five days. One hundred and forty-three arrests spanning nearly twenty countries.

Commercial driver’s licenses are supposed to certify that the holder has passed rigorous federal and state testing for operating heavy trucks. What they don’t certify, particularly when issued by states like California, is whether the holder is legally present in the United States. Handing out professional credentials without verifying legal status isn’t compassion, it’s negligence.

DHS has not yet disclosed how many of the 95 drivers will face prosecution, deportation, or both. Their individual criminal histories were also not included in the initial public accounting, which means the full picture could look considerably worse once those records surface.

President Trump has floated a straightforward solution to the illegal trucker problem, replace them with American veterans who have served this country and deserve a shot at good-paying jobs in the transportation industry. It’s the kind of common-sense proposal that puts Americans first, which is precisely why the left can’t stand it.

Meanwhile, California will presumably keep doing what California does: issuing licenses, asking no inconvenient questions, and letting the rest of us deal with the fallout.

Maxine Waters BLASTS The ‘White Media’ — Accuses Them Of Trying To Tear Democrats Apart For Ratings (VIDEO)

0

URGENT: CLICK TO FIGHT BACK AGAINST THE LEFT!

(DC Pundit) – If you ever need a reminder of why Americans have lost faith in their elected officials, just wait for Rep. Maxine Waters to open her mouth. It won’t take long.

The California Democrat, who has somehow managed to hold onto her congressional seat since 1991 despite a greatest hits reel of unhinged statements, recently told supporters that Democrats are doing “pretty good” heading into the midterms. Fine, whatever. But then she did what Maxine Waters does best: she made it weird.

Waters decided to warn her followers that tensions between mainstream Democrats and the hard-left DSA crowd are being manufactured, and naturally, she knows exactly who’s to blame.

“Some of the media, mostly the white media, are interested in a fight in order to get their ratings up,” Waters declared.

This is a sitting member of the United States Congress, someone entrusted with representing her constituents and crafting legislation, blaming internal Democratic Party chaos on “white media.” Not failed policies. Not a radical progressive wing that has dragged the party so far left it’s practically fallen off the map. Nope. White media. For the ratings.

The outlets apparently obsessing over Democrat infighting? That would be places like CNN and MSNBC, two networks that would sooner run a ticker tape parade for the Democratic Party than do anything to damage it. The idea that they’re stirring up trouble to juice their numbers at the Democrats’ expense is the kind of logic that only makes sense if you’ve completely abandoned logic altogether.

Waters has built an entire career on this kind of race-baiting grievance theater, and her constituents in California’s 43rd district keep sending her back to Washington to do it some more. Truly a testament to the power of low expectations.

The real story here isn’t media conspiracies, it’s that the Democrat Party is genuinely fracturing between its establishment wing and a socialist base that wants to blow the whole thing up and start over.

But rather than confront the actual problem, Waters reaches for the oldest and laziest card in the deck.

Is there a single Democrat in Washington who can go ten minutes without turning everything into a racial grievance? Asking for roughly half the country.

The fact that this woman is not only still in Congress but also running for reelection should tell you everything you need to know about the state of the modern Democratic Party.

YOU CAN’T MAKE THIS UP: California Wants To Force Companies To Disclose Their ‘Historic Links To Slavery’

URGENT: CLICK TO FIGHT BACK AGAINST THE LEFT!

(DC Pundit) – If you were wondering whether California’s leadership had finally hit rock bottom, wonder no more. They just ordered a shovel.

The Golden State has spent years perfecting the art of driving businesses away. Crushing tax rates, suffocating regulations, and Governor Gavin Newsom’s heavy-handed COVID lockdown policies sent companies fleeing to Texas, Florida, and anywhere else that doesn’t treat job creators like the enemy. The exodus has been well-documented and frankly embarrassing for a state that once led the nation in economic dynamism.

So naturally, Sacramento’s response is to double down.

California is now moving forward with legislation that would force companies to dig through their historical records and disclose any ties to slavery. Assembly Bill 2599 would require businesses with more than $100 million in annual worldwide sales to search their records for evidence that they, their predecessors, or subsidiaries bought or sold enslaved people, or provided financial support for those transactions, including through insurance or loans.

Here’s the part that really deserves a moment of quiet reflection: California was never a slave state. It entered the Union in 1850 as a free state. So the state’s lawmakers are demanding that companies excavate 19th century corporate genealogy to answer for an institution that California itself never legally practiced.

You genuinely cannot make this up.

The bill is already drawing pushback from the insurance industry, which argues it largely repeats an earlier California law already requiring insurers to disclose past policies issued to slaveholders covering the death or injury of enslaved people. New York Life Insurance Company, Aetna Life Insurance Company, and American International Group, known as AIG, were among the companies that previously disclosed ties to enslaved people and slaveholders under that earlier measure.

So the state already has a law doing a version of this. Their solution? More law.

Meanwhile, the businesses still stubbornly hanging on in California are watching this unfold and quietly updating their relocation spreadsheets. Between the taxes, the regulations, the crime, the homelessness crisis, and now mandatory corporate ancestry investigations, the cost-benefit analysis of staying in California gets harder to justify with each passing legislative session.

Newsom, for his part, appears completely uninterested in addressing any of the root causes pushing companies out. No serious tax reform. No meaningful regulatory relief. Just more compliance burdens stacked on top of the ones that already exist.

At some point, Sacramento has to reckon with the reality that you cannot punish your way to prosperity. Businesses are not going to stay in a state that treats them as piggy banks and political props, and no amount of historical disclosure requirements is going to change that math.

Will whoever’s left in California when the last business finally bolts please remember to hit the lights on the way out?

VIDEO: New York Gov. Kathy Hochul Wears Hijab While Addressing Group Of Muslim Men

URGENT: CLICK TO FIGHT BACK AGAINST THE LEFT!

(DC Pundit) – New York Governor Kathy Hochul made headlines recently after video surfaced of her sporting a hijab while addressing a predominantly male Muslim audience in New York City. The footage, circulating widely online, shows the Democratic governor draped in a black headscarf during a visit publicized by the Islamic Center of New York.

“I want to thank His Excellency Mr. [Tareq] Albanai,” Hochul says in the clip, before extending gratitude to an imam and other officials associated with the organization.

In Islamic culture, the hijab is traditionally worn as a sign of “modesty,” meant to shield a woman’s body from the gaze of men. Which raises an obvious question, is Hochul genuinely embracing the tradition, or is this another calculated photo op from a politician who has never met a demographic she wouldn’t pander to?

This isn’t Hochul’s first rodeo with Islamic head coverings. In July 2025, she wore a headscarf while attending the funeral of slain Muslim NYPD Officer Didarul Islam. When Sen. Ted Cruz raised an eyebrow at the decision, Hochul fired back.

“I wore a headscarf to honor a fallen Muslim NYPD officer at his funeral. Respecting a grieving family’s faith is ‘wut’ leaders and anyone with basic decency would do,” she said.

She has previously recognized World Hijab Day, going so far as to praise women who wear the hijab, including those forced to wear it, as feminist advocates. Democratic lawmakers in New York have similarly championed the observance as a tool to combat supposed discrimination against Muslim women.

The left has spent decades positioning itself as the defender of women’s rights and bodily autonomy. Yet when it comes to a garment that, in many parts of the world, women are compelled to wear under threat of punishment, suddenly it becomes a symbol of empowerment worth celebrating. The mental gymnastics required to hold both of those positions simultaneously is impressive.

Hochul has made her priorities clear. Whether those priorities align with the values of everyday New Yorkers, particularly women who believe true freedom means never being told what to wear, is a conversation worth having.

EVIL: MOTHER SPARED PRISON After Stabbing Her Two Sons And Submerging Them In A Bathtub

URGENT: CLICK TO FIGHT BACK AGAINST THE LEFT!

(DC Pundit) – A Bronx mother who stabbed her 3-year-old and 11-month-old sons and submerged their bodies in a bathtub walked out of Bronx Criminal Court Monday without a single day of prison time, and New Yorkers are left to make sense of that.

Dimone Fleming, now 26, was found not criminally responsible for the November 26, 2022 killings of her two boys. Judge Audrey Stone accepted the insanity plea, with both prosecutors and the defense agreeing that Fleming was in a state of psychosis when she committed the murders. She could be held in a psychiatric facility, for months, or years, if doctors continue to assess her as dangerous. She could also eventually walk free.

Welcome to New York City justice, 2026 edition.

Fleming was originally charged with first-degree murder. According to court records cited by The New York Times, she stabbed both boys multiple times, placed them in the bathtub, covered their bodies with clothing and a sheet, left the faucet running, and left a stove burning. A shelter employee called 911 after water and smoke began pouring from the apartment.

Responding officers found Fleming partially naked, behaving erratically, and holding a children’s book upside down. They transported her to a hospital for psychiatric evaluation but initially failed to locate the children after being told they were with their father. Fleming’s then-boyfriend, Columbus Canada, later entered the apartment and discovered both boys unresponsive in the bathtub. Neighbors reportedly heard him screaming for help as he carried the children into the hallway. Both were rushed to a hospital and pronounced dead.

Dr. Eric Goldsmith, a psychiatrist retained by the prosecution, concluded Fleming was “grossly psychotic and out of touch with reality” — hallucinating, convinced the world was ending, and believing a spirit had entered her body. Defense-retained doctors reached the same conclusion, claiming Fleming believed she was protecting or “cleansing” her children.

Prior to the killings, Fleming had received treatment for anxiety and depression, was diagnosed with major depressive disorder, was prescribed psychiatric medication she did not take as directed, and was reportedly using marijuana daily, which doctors said worsened her condition.

Unlike the high-profile Lindsay Clancy case, this case was resolved with barely a whisper of national attention.

Bronx Assistant District Attorney Tiffany Wichman told the court: “Prosecuting mothers does not and cannot prevent these crimes from happening, but public discourse might.”

Fleming’s attorney praised prosecutors for sidestepping a murder trial altogether.

Two little boys are dead. Their father found them in a bathtub. And the system calls this justice.

Fleming returns to court September 18 for further evaluation. She is not in prison. She is not free. And those two boys are still gone.

Fake News CNN Makes Stunning Mistake, Uses Photo Of Vegas Impersonator While Reporting Dolly Parton’s Death (VIDEO)

URGENT: CLICK TO FIGHT BACK AGAINST THE LEFT!

(DC Pundit) – CNN has issued an apology after the network aired a photo of a Las Vegas Dolly Parton impersonator during a tribute segment following the country legend’s death.

The blunder unfolded during a broadcast of Laura Coates Live, roughly 12 hours after Parton’s passing. Instead of pulling one of the countless iconic images of the beloved singer, and there are hundreds of millions of moments to choose from, CNN’s crack research team somehow landed on a photo of 58-year-old Kelly Vohnn, a well-known Parton tribute performer based in Las Vegas. The internet, predictably, was not amused.

“We regret the error and apologize to the Parton family,” CNN said in a brief statement.

Vohnn, who learned of her accidental television debut the hard way, told the California Post that her phone lit up immediately. “I started getting all these texts in from friends saying that I was on CNN, and I couldn’t believe it,” she said. “I was already heartbroken at losing Dolly because of how much she has given to me as a woman and an artist. But then to see these images of me on screen was just weird.”

She didn’t hold back in assessing the network’s competence either. “Somebody at CNN really messed up and didn’t do their research,” Vohnn said. “I felt so sorry and apologetic for Dolly, because over her career there are so many wonderful images and moments that they could have chosen from — and CNN just picked something not appropriate. To be clear, I have never represented myself as being Dolly ever in my life. I have always been known as a tribute act for her and many other stars.”

Parton’s representatives confirmed that the American icon passed away following a brief battle with cancer at the Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center, surrounded by loved ones. “Our beloved Dolly Parton spent her life and career bringing joy, laughter, hope and integrity into everything she touched,” her reps said. “Her unmatched generosity reached the lives of countless people whom she would never meet, yet she was always there to offer a helping hand.”

The statement also highlighted her extraordinary philanthropic legacy, hundreds of millions of books donated through her Imagination Library, and funding for research that helped produce a life-saving vaccine used worldwide.

Her passing was announced via video by nephew Bryan Seaver, who had served as her head of security for over two decades. “As her head of security for more than two decades, a role my father, Larry, held before me, I have imagined the heaviness of this moment but haven’t truly felt it until now,” he said.

Parton’s health had become a concern in fall 2025, when she was forced to cancel a six-show December residency at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas.

As for CNN, anyone with half a brain and a functioning set of eyes could tell at a glance that the woman in that photo was not the real Dolly Parton. This is the kind of embarrassing, sloppy journalism that has become standard operating procedure over at CNN. Par for the course from a network that has spent years hemorrhaging credibility.

Police Storm Apartment of Ilhan Omar’s Son, Firearms And Ammunition Seized

URGENT: CLICK TO FIGHT BACK AGAINST THE LEFT!

(DC Pundit) – Police in Minneapolis executed a search warrant Tuesday night at the apartment shared by Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar’s son, Adnan, recovering firearms and ammunition. The congresswoman’s roommate, 22-year-old Abdulrahman Abdi, was arrested earlier that same day on a weapons charge and booked into the Hennepin County Jail.

Multiple law enforcement sources confirmed the overnight search targeted the Minneapolis residence where Omar’s son lives. In response to questions about what took place at the apartment, the Minneapolis Police Department confirmed another man, who is not the Congresswoman’s son, was arrested earlier in the day. Abdulrahman Abdi was booked into the Hennepin County Jail on a weapons charge.

The sequence started with a traffic stop. Officers cited Abdi for driving after his license was canceled and failing to provide proof of insurance. He was released at the scene while the vehicle was impounded. During that process, a firearm was discovered. Police later located Abdi and took him into custody without incident.

Omar’s son has not been charged or implicated in any wrongdoing. Still, the optics are hard to ignore for a progressive Democrat who has long pushed strict gun control measures and regularly lectures Americans about the dangers of firearms. When the roommate of a Squad member’s adult son ends up with weapons recovered from their shared apartment, the usual media silence is predictable. Conservatives notice these things even when the networks do not.

Abdi’s record includes multiple prior convictions, mostly traffic-related. Reports indicate at least ten previous brushes with the law. Minnesota law prohibits certain individuals with felony records from possessing firearms, adding another layer to the weapons charge.

Ilhan Omar has built a political brand on progressive purity tests, open-borders rhetoric, and skepticism toward law enforcement. Moments like this tend to undercut the narrative. This latest episode in Minneapolis fits a familiar pattern: the rules that progressive politicians demand for everyone else somehow look different closer to home.

Armed Man Arrested At Trump’s Golf Course Had 200 Pages Of Info, Including Melania Trump’s Schedule (VIDEO)

0

URGENT: CLICK TO FIGHT BACK AGAINST THE LEFT!

(DC Pundit) – An armed man arrested Aug. 2 at President Donald Trump’s California golf course allegedly carried first lady Melania Trump’s schedule along with detailed information about U.S. Secret Service personnel, according to reports.

Jeanine John Taele, 38, had more than 200 pages of writings that included schedules for the first lady and members of the president’s USSS detail, The Associated Press reported, citing information revealed during a Los Angeles County court hearing Wednesday. The New York Post reported that prosecutors said Taele had seven notebooks containing 208 pages of drawings and sketches of Trump National Golf Club Los Angeles in Rancho Palos Verdes, lists of USSS schedules, details about individual security personnel and copies of Melania Trump’s schedule.

Los Angeles County Judge John Lonergan Jr. called the allegations “alarming” during Wednesday’s hearing. “This case itself is alarming in this day and age with the violence that is creeping into our everyday lives, especially with our partisanship in the political environment” ahead of the midterms, Lonergan said.

It’s a good thing this man was caught. This could have ended very badly. President Trump has already survived multiple attempts on his life, and the idea that someone showed up at his golf course armed with the first lady’s schedule and Secret Service personnel details is the kind of threat that keeps security teams awake at night. The notebooks full of sketches of the club and lists of agents’ schedules do not suggest a casual visitor. They suggest someone who had done his homework.

Conservatives have watched for years as political violence and rhetoric have grown more heated, particularly when directed at Trump and those around him. The judge’s own words about partisanship and the violence creeping into everyday life capture the atmosphere many on the right have been pointing out while much of the media treats such incidents as isolated curiosities rather than part of a pattern. Melania Trump, as first lady, should not have to worry about her private schedule ending up in the hands of an armed individual casing the president’s golf course.

The fact that authorities stopped this before anything worse happened is a credit to the Secret Service and local law enforcement. Still, the recovery of more than 200 pages of detailed writings, including the first lady’s schedule and specific information on security personnel, underscores just how close these situations can come. With midterms approaching and the political temperature remaining high, cases like this serve as a reminder that the threats against the Trump family are real and ongoing.

Hillary Clinton Defends The Democratic Party’s Shift To Socialism As “Healthy” (VIDEO)

0

URGENT: CLICK TO FIGHT BACK AGAINST THE LEFT!

(DC Pundit) – Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has once again shown her talent for reading the room among Democrats, this time by declaring the party’s lurch toward radical socialism a positive development. Speaking Monday in a conversation with the Hamptons Institute, Clinton labeled the current “experiment” within the Democratic Party as “healthy.”

“The Democratic Party right now is, I think, going through a kind of experiment, like who can actually respond particularly to young people’s very real concerns about where they are at this point in their lives and what kind of future do they have for themselves? I think that is healthy,” she said.

Clinton, ever eager to stay in step with the latest leftward shift, delivered these remarks as democratic socialist candidates continue challenging establishment Democrats in primaries across the country. The moderator had asked her about the party’s future amid what was described as a “major upheaval between center-left and democratic socialists.”

How exactly is embracing a failed ideology healthy? Socialism has a long track record of producing shortages, economic stagnation, and misery wherever it has been tried seriously. From the Soviet Union to modern examples that left-wing activists prefer not to discuss, the results speak for themselves. Yet Clinton frames the rise of candidates pushing these ideas as a thoughtful response to young voters’ anxieties.

This is classic Clinton: always positioning herself as attuned to the newest trend inside the party, even when that trend involves recycling economic theories that history has repeatedly rejected. Plenty of Democrats have rushed to associate themselves with the socialist wing to appear relevant. Clinton’s version simply adds a veneer of elder-statesman wisdom to the same impulse.

Her comments arrive as the Democratic Party continues searching for ways to connect with younger voters while its more extreme elements gain ground. Calling that process “healthy” may play well in certain circles, but it does little to address the practical failures of the policies those candidates promote. Conservatives watching this spectacle are left wondering how much further left the party must go before someone in its leadership finally notices the pattern.

Clinton’s assessment may satisfy progressive activists, but it offers no serious answer to the question of whether repeating the mistakes of the past somehow becomes wise simply because it appeals to a particular demographic.
