President Donald Trump took to Truth Social to demand the elimination of cashless bail, saying the policy has failed and is endangering public safety. “Crime in American Cities started to significantly rise when they went to CASHLESS BAIL,” President Trump posted on Monday. “The WORST criminals are flooding our streets and endangering even our great law enforcement officers. It is a complete disaster, and must be ended, IMMEDIATELY!” Trump’s message echoes concerns he has voiced repeatedly on the campaign trail. At a Bronx rally in May of last year, Trump decried “radical left pro-crime policies” that he said have “destroyed”…
House Republicans have lost control of the floor over their Jeffrey Epstein blow-up, and they’re struggling to chart a path out of the crisis. GOP leaders are talking with Trump administration officials, searching for ways to appease Republicans members incensed over the lack of public information and Speaker Mike Johnson’s handling of the matter broadly. House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, as he headed into a House GOP Conference meeting Tuesday morning, said in a brief interview that Republican leaders and others are now trying to “expedite” the administration’s release of information over the August recess. “I think a lot of…

Guest post by Rachel Alexander. This article originally appeared on Townhall and was republished with permission. Every now and then, a movie that combines heart and brains comes along, capturing the essence of the era. For MAGA conservatives, that film this year is guaranteed to be Potluck Teacher. It’s a bit reminiscent of God’s Not Dead, but goes beyond religion and delves into MAGA themes that most faith-based films do not expand into. Potluck Teacher is a brilliant and powerful faith-based drama that explores how Gen Z young people are navigating a harrowing landscape of destroyed families, schools hostile to religious faith, and a…

KYIV, Ukraine (AP) – Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Tuesday renewed his offer to meet with Russian leader Vladimir Putin and negotiate an end to the war in Ukraine, but hopes of any progress were low as delegations from both governments prepared to hold a third round of direct talks. Russian forces, meanwhile, pounded four Ukrainian cities in nighttime attacks that officials said killed a child. Putin has spurned Zelenskyy’s previous offers of a face-to-face meeting to end Europe’s biggest conflict since World War II. But the Ukrainian leader insists that lower-level delegations like the ones expected for talks in…
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said Tuesday that he sees no reason for Fed chairman Jerome Powell to step down immediately. “There’s nothing that tells me that he should step down right now,” Bessent said during an interview with Maria Bartiromo on Fox Business. “His term ends in May. If he wants to see that through, I think he should. If he wants to leave early, I think he should.” Bessent has called for the Fed to launch a comprehensive internal review of the Federal Reserve, warning that “mission creep” has drawn the central bank into the realm of politics and…
Self-deportations of illegal aliens have ramped up significantly since President Donald Trump’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) began prioritizing a cost-effective departure program, new agency data reveal. In March, the Trump administration relaunched a Customs and Border Protection (CBP) mobile app to be used by illegal aliens looking to self-deport from the United States rather than wait for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents to detain them. Paired with the self-deportation app are the Trump administration’s financial incentives for illegal aliens — offering to pay for one-way flights back to their home countries and giving away $1,000 bonuses to illegals who…
