El-Sayed, who is running for Senate in Michigan, set off the controversy after appearing to make a pointed reference to the second lady's Indian heritage while firing back at Vance.
The remark immediately ignited accusations that El-Sayed had crossed a line by targeting a politician's spouse - with critics branding him a “Racist Creep” and questioning how he would treat women if elected to Congress.Daily Mail

Federal District Judge Indira Talwani said the U.S. Postal Service violated a nationwide injunction by issuing President Donald Trump‘s mail-ballot rule for the November election, but declined to impose additional relief that would prevent its scheduled publication.
“Defendants cannot contend that they misunderstood the scope of the court’s order”, Talwani, an appointee of former President Barack Obama, wrote in her five-page ruling.
“Accordingly, despite the Defendants’ protestations that ‘The United States takes its obligation to comply with court orders very seriously’, the court finds that Defendants violated the preliminary injunction in this case.”
The existing injunction continues to prohibit USPS from enforcing the requirements for the November 3 election or rejecting ballot mail that does not meet the administration’s standards.Washington Examiner

While well-intentioned, President Trump’s plan to temporarily permit more foreign beef imports into America without paying higher tariffs will only exacerbate the long-term stock shortage in the cattle industry, and it will directly lead to higher long-term beef prices.
Beef is a very cyclical industry, largely driven by the fact that it takes nine months to create a new calf, and another year or two (at a minimum) to bring it to market and process it.
Because of the difficulty of predicting demand that far out, plus the difficulty of matching supply to that demand, we end up with big swings in prices in every five-to-10-year cycle.
Right now, we are at the price peak in the cycle. The only way to bring prices back down is to increase the supply, and that can only happen when farmers choose to retain cows to breed and grow the stock instead of selling them today. This is called heifer retention.
Instead of looking for short-term Band-Aids to mask the beef price problem heading into the midterms, the administration should instead focus on ways to incentivize heifer retention in order to increase long-term cattle supply.

News that the national debt has risen above $40 trillion resonates like a ringing bell. It registers that America is 16 times deeper in its fiscal hole than it was when this was a chronic ailment back in the late 1980s.
Dispatches from Wall Street to Fleet Street, written in early 1989, when the $2.6 trillion debt and related alarm over the $155 billion annual budget deficit were causing ructions between President George H.W. Bush and Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan.
International markets are rattled by global events. That was made clear by the Aug. 18 widespread global selloff of U.S. Treasury securities, raising 30-year yields to roughly 5.34%, the highest level since 2007.
There are several causes for the rising investor anxiety. This includes renewed conflict in the Middle East, along with a continued guessing game about the Federal Reserve’s intentions regarding interest rates.
Primarily, though, America’s bleak fiscal situation is quelling investor confidence. The U.S. Treasury bond selloff coincided with the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office’s release of statistics that the national debt is about to cross the $40 trillion threshold.

New York City’s Democratic Socialists of America co-chair of New York City’s Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) has railed against the wealthy and championed the working class — while living in a roughly $1.4 million Brooklyn home purchased and renovated by his parents.
“I am shocked, just shocked that the co-chair of the New York Socialist party lives like a king in [the] $1 million+ home his parents bought for him in cool Bed-Stuy”, former New York State Senate candidate Maria Danzillo wrote. “Who would have ever guessed that a [New York City DSA] gentrifier doesn’t have to worry about paying rent or any of the other mundane problems actual working class people have to contend with?”
“Exactly the kind of ‘greed’ the DSA rails against on a daily basis”, New York City Councilwoman Vickie Paladino says.

President Donald Trump took a shot at Democratic Georgia Senator Jon Ossoff for comments he made about the president’s travel with administration staff and the White House ballroom project.
At a rally this weekend, while criticizing the president’s policies in the war with Iran and behavior in office, Ossoff made a swipe at Natalie Harp, the president’s assistant who is almost always traveling with Trump and is often seen just feet away from him at most public outings.Washington Examiner

“Meet the Depressed” Featured Host Kristen Welker Doing What She Often Does and Does Best: running crisis communications operations for beleaguered Democrats. This week’s beneficiary of her services is Democratic Socialist Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed.
The Free Beacon reported on visible evidence of El-Sayed’s true ideological leanings, on the bookshelf that he sought to hide from voters:
A bookshelf in Abdul El-Sayed's living room—which he sought to conceal from a documentary film crew in 2018—contained works by an unindicted co-conspirator of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, a member of an Islamic group that sought to establish a Sharia-governed state, and a Muslim cleric whose writings have influenced al Qaeda and other major terrorist groups.
The living room bookshelf came into frame as El-Sayed—now the Michigan Democratic Senate nominee—showed off his wedding pictures during a scene in How to Fix a Primary, a documentary about his failed 2018 gubernatorial bid.
During the scene, El-Sayed was filmed pointing to his bookshelf as he asked the filmmakers to “not get these things in the shot” because he wanted to “keep the shot secular”.
But the filmmakers ultimately provided a close-up shot of the bookshelf, which contained a copy of the Quran and about three dozen texts analyzing various aspects of the Muslim faith, several by Islamic extremists.

This Is Simply Not To Be Believed. The FBI has told a federal court that, at a rate of 500 pages a month, processing 2 million pages of records from the “Hidden Room” at FBI Headquarters would take approximately 158 years.
“The Room” — now dubbed the “Burn Bag Room” — holds over 2 million pages of records, according to the FBI’s own filing. Then-Deputy Director Bongino said in May 2025 that some of the records were found stashed “In Bags”.
In the filing, Judicial Watch asked the court to allow it to question the FBI, through a limited deposition, about its handling of the records — including who discovered the room and when, who had access to it, its security classification, how records ended up stored in file cabinets, safes, boxes, and burn bags, what the FBI has done to bring them under standard records management, and whether the records were ever searched in response to other FOIA requests.
In its response, FBI reports that it has yet to access a safe believed to contain records. The agency also alleges that “it will take approximately 158 years to process at a rate of 500 pages a month”.

Adding to the polling industry’s growing list of problems is a company that has admitted to releasing fake polls as a “Social Experiment” to see what kind of impact the misinformation could have.
The problem is this is exactly what many skeptics think normal pollsters are up to when the polls miss in key races, as they have done recently in Michigan and Wisconsin: releasing bogus data to shape political narratives to the benefit of their preferred candidates.

According to the Department of Justice (DOJ), Dr. David Morens pleaded guilty to a conspiracy charge “To Commit Offenses And To Defraud The United States”.
Morens was indicted by federal prosecutors in April and previously served as a senior advisor to Fauci — the now-former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) — from 2006-2022.
In summarizing the guilty plea, the DOJ said that Morens and two co-conspirators “conspired” during the COVID outbreak to defraud America after the National Institutes of Health (NIH) “terminated the grant, Understanding the Risk of Bat Coronavirus Emergence, based on allegations” that the Covid-19 virus originated from the Wuhan Institute of Virology in Wuhan, China.The Federalist

The White House Transparency Task Force during the Obama Administration dropped the new documents under the title “Rusty Thumbs”, another moniker given to the woman whose real name is Christine Fang.
Fang, who fled to China in 2015 as the FBI closed in, spent years cozying up to rising California Democrats, helping bundle donations for Swalwell's 2014 re-election campaign and even placing an intern in his congressional office.
“Fang Fang” was obvious with her flirtations with Swalwell, as according to a staffer, she once bragged to Swalwell that “She Was Not Wearing Any Underwear”.
Swalwell's attorney, Sara Azari, said everything released by the White House was old news.Daily Mail
The newly declassified investigation files also show that the FBI had initially tried to recruit the infamous Fang Fang as a source that could share information on Chinese influence operations targeting public officials in the United States.
When allegations of Rep. Eric Swalwell’s relationship with a woman suspected of ties to Chinese intelligence first surfaced in 2020, then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was briefed on the FBI’s findings.
The public now knows the bureau had evidence at the time that the woman, Fang Fang, had potentially compromised Swalwell with sex, foreign interns and illicit donations, but Pelosi and Democrats still refused to remove the lawmaker from the powerful House Intelligence Committee.Just The News

While speaking on The Fifth Column podcast, former ABC News correspondent Terry Moran recounted an experience in early 2021 when a story he did about COVID-19’s origins was influenced by a legal review overseen by Fauci.
“We talked to molecular biologists, we talked to people in the Trump administration, people who had been in the Trump administration, we broke a little news that that lab had been funded by the Chinese military”, Moran said while describing the story, which was about the possibility that COVID-19 originated from a laboratory rather than an animal market.Washington Examiner/YouTube
Newly released email shows that on May 27, 2021, Dr. Janet Woodcock, then-acting Commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration, wrote to Fauci and Dr. Francis Collins regarding reports she says she received directly from individuals, including “healthcare professionals”, of adverse events after COVID-19 vaccination.
“The email we are releasing coincides with monthly data runs by Dr. Szarfman using a new algorithm showing dozens of safety signals including sudden cardiac death, pulmonary infarction (which Dr. Fauci suffered in June 2021), cerebral artery occlusion, basal ganglia stroke, agonal rhythm, and Bell’s palsy.”Just The News

Trump administration border czar Tom Homan defended reports that Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents may soon be equipped with shock gloves that would be use to de-escalate a situation.
According to the Associated Press, The defense comes after reports surfaced that the agency plans to spend up to $20 million to purchase the “conducive distraction and de-escalation devices”.
The devices are manufactured by Compliant Technologies LLC in Kentucky. The company calls them “G.L.O.V.E.”, which stands for “Generated Low Output Voltage Emitter”.
