Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel announced on Thursday the arrest of a suspect in the Jan. 6 pipe bomb case after it languished for years under the Biden administration, crediting a fresh look at the case and a new team for the breakthrough.
“Today’s arrests happened because the Trump administration made it a priority,” Bondi said at a press conference. “The cold case languished for years, until Director Patel and Deputy Director Bongino came to the FBI.”
She said that no new evidence was uncovered, but that a fresh review of the case spearheaded by Bongino breathed new life into the case.
The suspect, who was named as Brian Cole Jr., will be charged with the use of explosive devices.
I received information last night that put the final pieces together for me.
I now can say with full confidence that I believe Charlie Kirk was betrayed by the leadership of Turning Point USA and some of the very people who eulogized him on stage.
Yes I will be naming names and providing evidence for my claims. And I am making a personal plea to every well-meaning person who donated to this Godforsaken organization to request a refund.
The University of Michigan is supposed to be the pride of the Midwest.
A 200-year-old college that has been dubbed a ‘Public Ivy,’ the school is steeped in tradition, pride and academic excellence. It is also the home of the Wolverines and the Big House, the largest stadium in America.
Now, the beloved school is increasingly seen as a back door for Beijing – a soft target for Chinese operatives, covert networks and alleged plots involving genetically modified parasites and crop-killing fungi.
And recent arrests show just how deep the rot may run.
On November 5, federal agents charged three Chinese nationals – Xu Bai, 28, Fengfan Zhang, 27, and Zhiyong Zhang, 30 – with conspiring to smuggle biological materials into the US while working at a University of Michigan (U-M) research lab.
They were the newest names in a disturbing string of cases involving Chinese nationals allegedly moving dangerous biological samples through campus labs under the guise of academic research.
According to the DOJ, Bai and Fengfan Zhang allegedly received multiple shipments from China between 2024 and 2025 containing ‘concealed biological materials related to round worms.’ The parasites are known to infect both humans and livestock.
The samples allegedly had ‘genetic modifications,’ according to notes in the suspect packages, and were shipped to them while they worked at U-M’s Shawn Xu laboratory, prosecutors say.
UPDATE: I feel a bit sorry for people who have not been watching Owens’ videos on the Kirk assassination, which now include a plausible French connection. She may have caught not just one big fish, but a net full of them. She is entertaining, which is no flaw but a bonus. Also, to my eye she appears to be honest and reveling in it, rather than struggling with it as Carlson seems to be. ABN
Confidence in Minnesota‘s social safety net has been shaken by fraudsters who authorities say have stolen more than $1 billion in public funds from programs meant to feed children, assist the homeless and provide autism therapy.
Over the last five years, people mostly within Somali communities have gotten rich by running companies that bill the state for millions of dollars in social services that were never actually rendered, The New York Times reported.
Federal prosecutors say of the 86 people that have been charged, 59 have been convicted so far in what they describe as three separate fraud schemes.
One central case involved the nonprofit Feeding Our Future, which claimed to serve tens of thousands of meals to low-income children during the pandemic.
Prosecutors allege most of those meals never existed, and instead, the taxpayer money went to luxury homes, cars, jewelry and real estate abroad.
‘No one will support these programs if they continue to be riddled with fraud,’ Joseph H Thompson, the federal prosecutor who took on the cases, told The Times. ‘We’re losing our way of life in Minnesota in a very real way.’
I am sure millions of American citizens, naturalized or not, would love to see her deported. Worth mentioning is there are many parasites in USA, some of whom have been here for many decades. We will never get our country back until the vast majority of parasitic gangs infesting us are busted; deported if possible but at least busted, exposed for all to see, and driven from public life and seats of power and influence.

Lev Tahor, a 200-300 member ultra-Orthodox Jewish sect founded in 1988, promotes isolationist practices and has faced U.S. federal charges since 2021 for child exploitation, including forced underage marriages and sexual abuse, per DOJ indictments and Wikipedia summaries of peer-reviewed investigations.
Lev Tahor has a documented history of international raids for child abuse allegations, including Canada’s 2014 removal of 14 children, Mexico’s 2018 rescue of two, Guatemala’s 2024 extraction of 160 minors, and Colombia’s November 2025 rescue of 17, as confirmed by Reuters, AP, and BBC reports.
WASHINGTON —Today, the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) is issuing an Alert as part of Treasury’s effort to prevent the exploitation of the U.S. financial system by illegal aliens in the United States seeking to move illicitly obtained funds. Annually over the past several years, the United States has witnessed a significant volume of cross-border funds transfers, including remittances from individuals located in the United States, and has taken multiple steps this year to highlight risks presented by cross-border financial activity.
“Money services businesses should be vigilant in identifying suspicious financial activity involving illegal aliens who present significant threats to national security and public safety,” said Under Secretary for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence John K. Hurley. “At Treasury, we will continue to protect the American people by faithfully upholding the laws of the United States.”
This Alert is consistent with Executive Order 14159, Protecting the American People Against Invasion. Money services businesses (MSBs) are generally required to file a suspicious activity report for a transaction that involves at least $2,000 and that the MSBs know, suspect, or have reason to suspect is relevant to a possible violation of law or regulation. This includes the cross-border transfer of funds derived from unlawful employment or otherwise derived from funds the MSB knows, suspects, or has reason to suspect were illicitly obtained in the United States.
Smartmatic set up its office inside Venezuela’s election commission with engineers working side by side to steal elections and defeat audits. Gary Berntsen explains how ballot images are swapped, source code is hidden, and fourteen methods of fraud are mixed so no pattern is ever found. The same engineers later moved into U.S. counties and flipped long-red districts overnight.
