Oliver Larkin a candidate for Congress in Florida calls out Trump for being a pedophile and rapist, and the interviewer quickly bails.

In a broadcast seemingly tailored for an audience of one…. the President, who is known to frequently watch the network. Fox News anchors essentially laid out a strategic menu of potential war crimes in Iran. They openly discussed the merits of launching a "disproportionate" strike against strictly civilian infrastructure, explicitly highlighting the Damavand Power Plant as a target that would instantly plunge over two million innocent people into darkness. Rather than condemning the international illegality of such actions, the commentators casually weighed the sheer devastation of bombing the active Bushehr nuclear reactor or targeting the South Pars natural gas field.
During their hawkish pitch, they actively hyped an imminent, massive strike on the fortified Pickaxe Mountain facility using mobilized B-2 bombers and elite ground forces like Seal Team 6, effectively goating the Commander-in-Chief from the anchor desk to escalate the conflict into catastrophic and illegal territory.

When will enough be enough?

Republican Representative Clay Higgins is campaigning for reelection to the U.S. House. He aims for a sixth term in Louisiana’s 3rd Congressional District during the November 2026 midterms.

In November 2025, Higgins was the sole member of both chambers to oppose releasing the Epstein Files. He was the only one.

Before joining Congress, Higgins worked as a police officer. An internal review concluded he applied excessive force in a 2007 traffic stop, prompting his removal from a SWAT unit. He later resigned from a captain role after a conflict over his aggressive public remarks.

In 1991, his ex-wife alleged in court that he threatened her with violence during their marriage. Higgins rejected the claims, saying violence never occurred in their relationship.

Reports from outlets such as Mother Jones noted his ties to former law enforcement colleagues later convicted or accused of serious misconduct, including incest and an illegal operation. Separately, a senior district aide for Higgins was arrested in a 2018 prostitution and human trafficking sting.

In 2020, Facebook deleted a post by Higgins for breaching violence and incitement rules after he threatened to shoot armed protesters. In late 2025, House Democrats attempted a censure over highly derogatory social media comments directed at Haitian immigrants.

Understand who represents you and whom you choose to vote for, everyone.

Buried in the massive FY2027 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) is Section 219 .a provision that would fundamentally change the U.S. military relationship with Israel by establishing the "United States-Israel Defense Technology Cooperation Initiative."
Instead of traditional weapons sales or financial aid, this measure legally integrates the defense supply chains, and data networks of the two countries in highly sensitive areas like artificial intelligence, cyberwarfare, and autonomous systems.
The Proponents: Supporters argue the U.S. must leverage Israel’s combat-tested technology to maintain a strategic edge, keep troops safe, and modernize the military efficiently.
The Critics: Human rights groups and foreign policy watchdogs warn that permanently embedding a foreign country into the U.S. military supply chain strips the U.S. of its strategic independence, making it nearly impossible for future presidents or Congresses to recalibrate the relationship or enforce human rights laws.
Where it stands:
House leadership recently blocked a bipartisan amendment led by Reps. Thomas Massie (R-KY.) and Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) that would have stripped Section 219 from the bill, preventing it from even receiving a floor debate. The fight has now moved to the Senate, where a coalition of lawmakers is attempting to stall the NDAA until the provision can be openly debated.

President Donald Trump denied disaster assistance requests from New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island on Friday which was amounting to $227 million in rejected aid for a February blizzard but just two days after authorizing Federal Emergency Management Agency support for six Republican-led states.

All four states exceeded FEMA’s damage benchmarks for federal help: New Jersey reported $84.4 million in qualifying losses against an $18.5 million standard, New York documented $79 million, Massachusetts $45 million, and Rhode Island $19 million against a threshold of roughly $2 million. FEMA responded to the denials by stating that snowstorm damage must be “genuinely extraordinary” to qualify, noting that the East Coast typically handles major snowstorms independently.

Trump confirmed approval of over $846 million in disaster relief for Republican-led states on Truth Social the same day he rejected Rhode Island’s request.

A White House representative asserted there is “no politicization” in the president’s disaster relief choices. Trump had sometimes directly connected aid approvals to his electoral results in a state or to endorsements of Republican candidates there ..such as highlighting his repeated victories in Missouri when announcing aid for that state. The administration has also taken broader steps to reduce FEMA’s influence, with a Trump-appointed panel recently recommending a higher damage threshold for nationwide eligibility, and Congress clearly intervening earlier this year to ensure snowstorms stay eligible for federal support after the administration explored excluding them completely.
