A member of Congress has confirmed she will be referring mayors of four “sanctuary” cities across America, Boston, Chicago, Denver and New York, for criminal investigation for their policies that prioritize illegal aliens over citizens.

A report from the Hill revealed U.S. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, R-Fla., informed the mayors during a hearing before the House Oversight and Accountability Committee.

It’s because of the sanctuary policies they practice in their cities, protecting illegal aliens, even criminal illegal aliens.

“To me after this line of questioning, it’s very clear that these policies that you have all implicated are active and alive and well in your cities are in direct violation with Title 8, U.S.C. § 1324 and is a federal offense,” Luna charged.

That federal law bars bringing in and harboring illegal aliens.

Her agenda is part of the Trump administration’s “aggressive” approach to those locations that protect illegal aliens, the report said.

Attorney General Pam Bondi already has sued Chicago, alleging the city has obstructed the federal government from enforcing immigration laws. Additionally, Bondi issued a memo last month saying sanctuary cities will not have access to federal funding from the DOJ.

President Donald Trump did not mince words Wednesday as he issued a scathing “last warning” to Hamas terrorists still holding hostages taken on Oct. 7, 2023.

“‘Shalom Hamas’ means Hello and Goodbye – You can choose,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

“Release all of the Hostages now, not later, and immediately return all of the dead bodies of the people you murdered, or it is OVER for you. Only sick and twisted people keep bodies, and you are sick and twisted!

“I am sending Israel everything it needs to finish the job, not a single Hamas member will be safe if you don’t do as I say.

“I have just met with your former Hostages whose lives you have destroyed. This is your last warning!

“For the leadership, now is the time to leave Gaza, while you still have a chance. Also, to the People of Gaza: A beautiful Future awaits, but not if you hold Hostages. If you do, you are DEAD! Make a SMART decision.

“RELEASE THE HOSTAGES NOW, OR THERE WILL BE HELL TO PAY LATER!

“DONALD J. TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.”

Following his campaign promise to “seal the border on Day 1,” President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Jan. 22 to “suspend the physical entry of aliens engaged in an invasion of the United States through the southern border.”

Then calling upon the U.S. military to help fulfill his promise, over 9,000 U.S. troops were deployed at the southern border. But on March 1, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth also ordered the deployment of a Stryker Brigade Combat Team and General Support Aviation Battalion to the southwestern border of the United States. According to Chief Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell, these forces will “reinforce and expand current border security operations to seal the border and protect the territorial integrity of the United States.”

Each Stryker Brigade Combat Team is a mechanized infantry force comprising approximately 4,400 soldiers. The aviation component of the deployment will bring about 650 additional personnel to the region, along with UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters for command and medical evacuation, and CH-47 Chinooks for heavy lifting.

“These forces,” said Parnell, “will arrive in the coming weeks, and their deployment underscores the department’s unwavering dedication to working alongside the Department of Homeland Security to secure our southern border and maintain the sovereignty, territorial integrity and security of the United States under President Trump’s leadership.”

WorldNetDaily spoke to Ben Varlese, a global security expert and former Stryker brigade sniper. He described each variant of the eight-wheeled armored vehicle as “phenomenal,” noting a number of different variants, ranging from mortar carriers to reconnaissance or infantry carrier vehicles.

Close-up view of the M1126 Stryker and its capabilities:

Most standard Strykers, he told WorldNetDaily, house a crew of 11, to include a driver, vehicle commander and two fire teams. “While I don’t think we’re calling for fire, mortars or artillery quite yet at the southern border,” he noted, “the Stryker is definitely a force multiplier.”

While operating from Forward Operating Base Marez in Mosul, Iraq in 2004-2005, Varlese was able to experience the tremendous value of the armored fighting vehicle. “A lot of the terrain was very similar to the southwest U.S.,” he said, explaining, “they offer great mobility platforms for not only desert-type environments, but also for urban operations.”

What’s more, he told WND, “It’s a big green beast, and there’s no denying what it is or what it’s capable of doing. Its presence alone is a passive deterrent.”

With regard to its capabilities, said Varlese, “They often have a free mounted weapon system like a 50-caliber machine gun, Mk 19 (pronounced Mark 19) 40-mm automatic grenade launcher, or a videogame-like Remote Weapon System.” Additionally, some also feature the long-range advanced scout surveillance system, or LRASSS, with standard or thermal viewing. And according to Varlese, “You could read somebody’s name tape from a kilometer away.”

“Remarkably, they’re really quiet, too,” he added. “We used to be able to pretty much park right in front of somebody’s front door, and they didn’t even know we were there until they heard the clank of the ramp dropping.” Should these Strykers ever be used for conducting raids, the quietness feature is a big benefit.

WASHINGTON – President Trump spoke with the big three automakers Wednesday and agreed to waive tariffs on their imports for one month, so tariffs for the carmakers will begin at the same time as the reciprocal tariffs when foreign nations will be charged by America the same as what they charge for American imports, a plan beginning on April 2.

First reported by Bloomberg, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed the waiver while reading a statement from the president.

“The automakers asked for this meeting,” she told the media, “And the president was happy to do it.”

This news comes are reports circulate indicating President Trump may back down as soon as Wednesday on the recently implemented 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico. It is widely charged by Democrats that those tariffs will wreak short-term economic havoc on American consumers’ wallets.

President Trump’s statement – as read out by the press secretary – reads as follows:

We spoke with the big three auto dealers. We are going to give a one-month exemption on any autos coming through USMCA. Reciprocal tariffs will still go into effect on April second. But at the request of the companies associated with USMCA, the president is giving them an exemption for one month so they are not at an economic disadvantage.

Leavitt further confirmed, as promised by Trump, that the architect of the Abbey Gate bombing had arrived in Washington. Mohammad Sharifullah killed 13 U.S. service members during the Biden administration’s botched withdrawal of Afghanistan.

The briefing also highlighted the success of Tuesday night’s joint address to Congress. Leavitt prominently displayed a CBS/Yougov poll that indicated 76% of viewers approved of the president’s speech in the House chamber. Furthermore, a CNN poll showed a combined 69% viewed the content of the address positively.

Of course, plenty of time also was also devoted to lambasting Democrats’ childish behavior, which included loudly jeering and storming out mid-speech. The press secretary called it “absolutely disgraceful.”

A proposal in Colorado’s leftist legislature is moving “deadnaming” to an extreme.

That’s the offense, to LGBT promoters, of calling someone by their name when they have chosen another name as part of their agenda for transgenderism.

Actually, according to the science, being male or female is embedded into the human body down to the DNA level and doesn’t change, no matter the chemical or surgical “treatments” that may be employed.

However, a transgender person’s decision to adopt a different name is recognized by many jurisdictions and using the old name, “deadnaming,” actually is an offense in some of those locations.

Now a report in Westword explains how Colorado is planning to take the fight against “deadnaming” to an extreme.

It would demand “accurate” references to a person on a death certificate.

The report explained, “Before Laura MacWaters transitioned, she spent years worrying about what would happen after she died. Would anyone ever know her for the woman she was? How would she be remembered? Would her identity and existence remain invisible forever? Today, MacWaters is proudly out as a transgender woman, but a concern remains: Will her identity be accurately reflected on her death certificate?”

The report noted that Coloradans already can change their birth certificate, driver’s license and state ID to match what they claim to be. That is a male like MacWaters can change “male” references to “female.”

The new plan would also allow a death certificate to identify a person by their gender ideology.

“When a person’s gender identity is stripped from them in their vital records, it is more than a clerical error. It is an act of erasure, a denial of who they are and of their legacy,” MacWaters claimed.

“This bill ensures that the respect we fight for in life will not disappear the moment we pass. I have seen how easy it is for trans people, especially older trans people, to have their identity questioned, dismissed, erased. …I’ve seen the pain of those who feared they would be misgendered, even in death.”

The plan already has been adopted by the state House Health & Human Services Committee.

The move comes in a national discourse for which President Donald Trump has explained the federal government recognizes only male and female.

Agenda promoters claim that they are being targeted because their documents are reflecting now their “sex they were assigned at birth.”

A Democrat in the House, Kyle Brown, said, it’s important to “promote dignity and accuracy in our vital records,” in sponsoring the bill that would mislabel men as women and women as men on their demand.

The report said, “The law would add a field to death certificate forms for a deceased individual’s gender, but it would also keep the current sex field. Sex generally refers to biological characteristics such as chromosomes and genital anatomy. Gender refers to an individual’s social and personal identity, which for some people differs from the sex they were assigned at birth.”

Problems that it would create, however, including that it would compel people to give an answer that they don’t believe.

Paul Saurini told lawmakers in a hearing he lost custody of his child because he referred to her as his daughter, which she is. But she “identifies” as a boy.

“Beyond family members, Republican Representative Brandi Bradley argued the bill violates the rights of funeral directors who file the certificate of death with the state, though the deceased person’s next-of-kin is the one responsible for providing the gender identity information,” the report said.

Democrats in the state insist that “knowingly and willingly” failing to provide the “correct” gender identity of a deceased person would be a crime and offenders should be jailed.

(JNS) — The Israeli and U.S. Air Forces this week conducted a significant joint military exercise over the Mediterranean Sea, in their first collaboration on this scale in two years.

Dozens of fighter jets, strategic B-52 bombers and refueling aircraft participated, simulating coordinated strikes on shared targets, Israel’s Kan News public broadcaster reported on Tuesday.

The drill comes as foreign reports suggest Israel is urging the United States to take joint action against Iran’s nuclear program. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz emphasized collaboration with Washington to prevent Tehran from obtaining nuclear weapons. Meanwhile, Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar warned that diplomatic efforts are faltering, leaving military action as a possibility.

The U.S. Department of Justice has revealed it will review the prosecution by the leftists in the state of Colorado of former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters, “on charges she helped an unauthorized person” access the local voting system in 2021, according to a new report.

Colorado Public Radio said the DOJ has filed documents entering the case against Tina Peters, who was accused by officials in the Democrat-run state of attempting to influence a public servant, impersonation and conspiracy.

The Republican was convicted and given several years in prison in her case that developed only months before Jenna Griswold, the Democrat secretary of state in Colorado, allowed lists of election systems passwords to be posted online.

Griswold then apparently schemed to conceal her actions.

WorldNetDaily has reported on the case, where she fiddled with those passwords, after scheming with all Democrats on the state Supreme Court to try to take President Donald Trump off the state’s 2024 ballot.

The U.S. Supreme Court blocked her agenda with a scolding.

Griswold also “played an integral role” in the case against Peters.

But prosecutors gave Griswold a pass on her actions.

The new report explains the DOJ confirmed it is reviewing the Peters case.

And while the federal agency cannot overturn a state conviction, it is true that Peters’ appeal of her case now has been moved into federal court.

The report explained a court filing by Yaakov Roth, an acting assistant attorney general, said the DOJ is evaluating the Peters case based on an executive order signed by President Donald Trump and it will focus on “whether the case was ‘oriented more toward inflicting political pain than toward pursuing actual justice or legitimate governmental objectives.’”

Roth said, “Parallel to these proceedings and Ms. Peters’ direct appeal, the Department of Justice is reviewing cases across the nation for abuses of the criminal justice process.”

It’s part of Trump’s order “Ending the Weaponization of the Federal Government,” the report said.

In that scenario, under the Joe Biden administration, multiple court cases were brought that had the appearance of being based on politics. At the apex of the agenda was the lawfare against Trump, where multiple Democrat prosecutors launched multiple felony charges against Trump, trying to keep him from the presidency in 2024.

One of those cases, now dropped, included felony counts against Trump for his handling of government documents after his first presidency.

But at the same time, prosecutors gave Joe Biden a pass after classified documents from when he was only a vice president were found concealed in the garage at his home and at various offices he had used.

CPR claims that Peters has become a “celebrity” in the world of “those who embrace Trump’s lies that he lost the 2020 election due to fraud.”

However, the facts that have been uncovered have confirmed at least two undue influences on that election result. One was Mark Zuckerberg’s decision to hand out $400 million plus to mostly leftist elections officials who often used it to recruit voters in Democrat districts. Never before in American election history had such a sum of money been used to influence an election outcome.

The second factor was the FBI’s decision to interfere in the voting when it falsely claimed that Biden family scandals uncovered in a laptop abandoned by Hunter Biden were Russian disinformation when in fact they were all true. The FBIi told media outlets to suppress the information, and a subsequent polling showed that action alone likely gave the presidency to Biden.

The political ideology used against Peters appeared during her sentencing to nine years behind bars, when Judge Matthew Barrett alleged, “You’re a charlatan who used, and is still using, your prior position in office to peddle a snake oil that’s been proven to be junk time and time again.”

During her trial her lawyers pointed out that the trial court refused to allow presentation of evidence regarding allegations about her county’s voting machines.

The CPR report claimed that the DOJ’s interest in a political prosecution amounted to “a new stage in the administration’s effort to use the federal government to promote the president’s political interests.”

Peters’ lawyer, John Case, said, “Tina was targeted because she executed her duty under federal law to preserve election data that the secretary of state deleted from every other Colorado county. We welcome the federal investigation.”

WND reported only weeks ago that an appeals court threw out a “contempt” finding also announced against Peters by a judge because there was no evidence to support the allegation by the retired judge, Paul Dunkelman.
