As part of ongoing efforts to crack down on fraud, the Trump administration is yanking nearly a billion dollars in funding from a Democrat-run homeless program in Los Angeles, CA. The Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority’s (LAHSA) federal funding has been officially cut off after investigations revealed that the agency misspent millions of dollars and did not properly account for its spending. Fox News was the first to report: A top Trump agency is cutting off funding to the Los Angeles agency responsible for coordinating billions in homelessness spending after accusing it of “obvious fraud,” “wanton mismanagement” and repeated failures to safeguard taxpayer dollars, Fox News Digital has learned. The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), part of the White House fraud task force led by Vice President JD Vance, is immediately suspending the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority’s (LAHSA) federal funding while HUD’s inspector general investigates potential offenses by the agency and its leadership, according to a letter sent to LAHSA’s board Chair Wendy Greuel and CEO Gita O’Neill, which was obtained and reviewed by Fox News Digital. The letter detailed conflicts of interest, financial mismanagement, fraud, lack of oversight and more from the homelessness agency, which has faced efforts by the city and county to take it over. LAHSA receives funding at the city, county, state and federal level, with the group getting nearly $1 billion from just the federal government since 2021, according to HUD. This clip from Fox News dove deeper:   BREAKING: The Trump administration is officially DEFUNDING TENS OF MILLIONS of dollars from Los Angeles Democrats’ HOMELESS program after rampant fraud, abuse and waste LONG OVERDUE! The fraud is crashing down! “They just were informed within the last hour that they are losing these tens of millions of dollars. They’ve gotten almost over a billion dollars since 2021 and federal taxpayer funding.” “This is a huge blow to this L.A. homeless authority.” Of course, Democrats are outraged. They are blasting the Trump administration’s move as a “politically-motivated attack” — not an effort to stop U.S. taxpayer money from being used for fraud! The New York Times has more on the Democrats’ response: LAHSA is receiving $69 million, about 8 percent of its overall budget, from the federal government this fiscal year, which ends June 30. Historically, the agency has relied more on the city and county governments of Los Angeles for its funding. President Trump was already critical of the ways local agencies have long funded homelessness services. He plans to shift funding away from a “housing first” approach that prioritizes shelter, and wants to require people to enter drug treatment or find work as a condition of receiving a place to stay. There has been widespread criticism of LAHSA’s spending, even from those who believe in its philosophical approach. LAHSA officials said in a statement that they were making recommended changes to “modernize our financial systems” and that they were exploring options to contest the federal decision. The agency has 30 days to request a hearing to persuade federal officials to reverse course, according to the letter. Los Angeles leaders said that the decision to pull tens of millions of dollars in federal funding entirely — rather than redirect it to other agencies — was just the latest politically motivated attack on a region that has been targeted by the president. “This stunt is for publicity, not for results,” said Lindsey Horvath, a member of the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors, who has led its homelessness committee. “I have been calling for change and accountability at LAHSA, but if this administration desires accountability, too, they should work with L.A. County.” Mayor Karen Bass’s office said in a statement that the funding cuts would lead to dire consequences. “Ultimately people will lose their lives,” her office said. What do you think? Are you supportive of the Trump administration cutting off funding to this fraudulent homelessness program? What are your thoughts?

The Supreme Court just issued a unanimous ruling, and the case behind it has everything: Twitter, Saudi dissidents, federal prosecutors, and a fake invoice. The decision came down June 11, 2026, in Abouammo v. United States, No. 25-5146. Justice Elena Kagan wrote for a 9-0 Court, reversing the Ninth Circuit and sending the case back. Legal reporter Katie Buehler summed up the ruling this way: BREAKING: A 9-0 Supreme Court *maintains* limits on the government's discretion over where to bring prosecutions, tossing a former Twitter/X employee’s California conviction for emailing false documents to FBI agents from Washington. #SCOTUS https://t.co/AH3umsmyZr pic.twitter.com/gIgvj6PuR5 — Katie Buehler (@bykatiebuehler) June 11, 2026 The defendant is Ahmad Abouammo, a former Twitter employee accused of giving confidential information about Saudi dissidents to a high-level Saudi official. According to the Court, the Saudi official wired Abouammo $300,000. Later, after Abouammo had left Twitter and moved to Seattle, FBI agents interviewed him at his home. The case was ugly. The legal question was narrower: where was the government allowed to try the false-record charge? The Supreme Court laid out the case this way: This case presents the question whether a defendant charged with violating 18 U.S.C. §1519—which makes it a crime to knowingly falsify a document with the intent to obstruct a federal investigation—must be tried in the district where the falsification occurred, or whether he may alternatively be tried in the district where the federal investigation was located. While employed by Twitter at its San Francisco office, petitioner Ahmad Abouammo provided confidential information to a high-level Saudi official about Saudi dissidents posting on the company’s platform. In exchange, the official wired Abouammo $300,000. Around the same time, Abouammo left Twitter and relocated to Seattle, where he started a social-media consulting business. Two San Francisco-based FBI agents, who were investigating unauthorized disclosures of Twitter account information, later flew to Seattle to interview Abouammo at his home. During the interview, Abouammo denied giving the Saudi official confidential information, claiming that the payments were for consulting work. When the agents asked for supporting documentation, Abouammo went upstairs, created a fake invoice, and emailed it to one of the agents. Back in San Francisco, the agents discovered from the emailed document’s date-and-time metadata what Abouammo had just done. Held: A defendant charged with violating §1519 must be tried in the district where the falsification occurred; he cannot be tried in a different district where the investigation was located because no “conduct constituting the offense” happened there. That is the heart of the ruling. The government charged the false-record count in the Northern District of California. Abouammo argued it belonged in the Western District of Washington because the alleged falsification happened in Seattle. The Supreme Court agreed with him on that venue question. For readers who do not live inside legal filings, venue is not a technicality when the Constitution says it twice. Article III says criminal trials are to be held in the state where the crimes were committed. The Sixth Amendment protects the right to a jury from the state and district where the crime was committed. In plain English, prosecutors do not get to pick a preferred courtroom just because the case is politically sensitive, embarrassing, or tied to foreign influence. That is the part that makes the unanimous ruling land. The Court did not bless what Abouammo allegedly did. It did not declare him innocent. It did something more basic: it reminded the government that even an unsympathetic defendant gets the protections the Constitution actually gives him. And when all nine justices agree on that, federal prosecutors across the country have to pay attention. This is a Guest Post from our friends over at WLTReport. View the original article here.

It looks like the war with Iran is nearing a swift and final end! From the Oval Office, President Trump just announced that a “great settlement” has been reached with Iran. Next, Vice President JD Vance will likely travel to Europe, where the deal could be signed as soon as this weekend. Watch this: BREAKING: PRESIDENT TRUMP SAYS IRAN WAR IS SETTLED, signing may take place in EUROPE to make it official Pray for peace! "A big day. I know you'll never be satisfied, but that's okay.

Probably have a signing maybe in Europe, and it’s a great thing.” “Stock market’s up 1,000 points. That means they like the deal! Oil’s dropped, it will start coming down EVEN LOWER than it was before!” President Trump’s announcement of a deal comes after he called off planned strikes on Iran earlier today.

Here’s a helpful breakdown of everything we know about the settlement with Iran so far: President Trump’s announced deal with Iran (as of June 11, 2026): Status: Trump stated that discussions reached Iran’s highest leadership level (Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei), with final points and concepts approved by “all parties.” He believes Khamenei has approved it. Key Actions: Trump canceled scheduled U.S. strikes/bombings on Iran. Naval blockade remains in effect until the deal is finalized. U.S. strikes on Iran were called off due to progress on the peace deal. Main Provisions (per Trump’s statements): Opens the Strait of Hormuz. Lifts the U.S. blockade on Iranian ports. Description: Trump called it a “very strong memorandum of understanding” — somewhat conceptual but expected to be completed soon. A time and place for signing will be announced shortly. Context: Follows recent U.S. strikes, Iranian missile/drone activity, and regional tensions. Other involved parties reportedly include Israel, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Turkey, Pakistan, and several Gulf/Arab states. Note: Iranian officials/sources have issued warnings and some denials of active talks, indicating the deal remains in early/fragile stages. In the clearest sign that this is the real deal, President Trump signaled that the new Iranian Supreme leader has personally approved the terms. Here’s a clip of what he told reporters in the Oval Office: JUST IN: President Trump says he is "VERY CONFIDENT" that this deal WILL go through, and the Supreme Leader of Iran has PERSONALLY approved it The US naval blockade will IMMEDIATELY be lifted as soon as the peace agreement is signed.

They’ve agreed to that.” “They will not only not have, they will not purchase, develop in any way, shape or form a nuclear weapon. They will NOT have a nuclear weapon.” “It’ll be SOON. Maybe this weekend!” “Oil prices dropping like a rock…” Sounds wonderful, doesn’t it? After months of Panicans and the media’s fear-mongering, we could see gas prices plunge to a historic low once this deal is finalized. The markets are already reacting to the news of an impending deal, per The New York Post: US stocks roared back Thursday as President Trump called off impending strikes on Iran – allowing chip stocks to rebound following intense declines over the past few weeks. The Dow Jones Industrial Average soared 929 points, or 1.9%, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq rose 1.8% and 2.5%, respectively. “Based on the fact that discussions with the Islamic Republic of Iran have been brought to the highest level of Iranian leadership and approved, I have, as President of the United States of America, cancelled the scheduled strikes and bombings against Iran this evening,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post. He added that discussions have been “approved by all parties involved, including the United States, Israel, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Turkey, Pakistan, Bahrain, Kuwait, Jordan, Egypt, and others.” The president on Thursday told The Post that the long-awaited agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and begin nuclear negotiations with Tehran is “pretty much all wrapped up.” Brent crude oil prices fell 2.9% to $90.38 a barrel, while West Texas Intermediate dipped 2.6% to $87.71 a barrel. National average gasoline prices, which lag oil prices by a few weeks, hit $4.13 a gallon on Thursday, according to AAA – down from a week ago but still nearly 40% higher than pre-war prices. We’ll continue to bring you the latest updates on the peace progress with Iran… It’s not over until it’s over. But it truly looks like this may be it, folks. Iran is out of leverage. They have no other options, at this point. So, buckle up and get ready for cheap gas!

New York’s socialist mayor sailed into office on a far-left message that, among other things, denounced the Trump administration’s efforts to enforce immigration laws. But now that he’s in office, Zohran Mamdani is starting to realize the real-world limitations of his supposedly utopian agenda. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin put him in his place during a recent interview. As Breitbart reported, he was responding to Mamdani’s claims that ICE raids are “cruel” and border czar Tom Homan’s subsequent assertion that New York “is not cooperating” with immigration officers: MULLIN: He’ absolutely correct. First of all, Mamdani is a socialist communist that I have zero respect for. He’s running a great city by allowing lawless activity to continue to run rampant on the streets. President Trump ran on the fact that he’s going to restore law back in American cities, even in sanctuary cities. I have said this multiple times. I don’t care if it’s a red state or a blue state. We’re going to protect the homeland and what happens in these sanctuary cities, like what Mamdani is running, is that the criminals go to the safe haven in New York City, but they disperse throughout other parts of the city or the state and other parts of the country and continue this criminal activity. So we’re are going to go where the heart of the crime is. Listen, 98% of the American people — President Trump states this fact all the time — 98% of the American people are law abiding citizens. It’s the 2% that runs rampant and destroys our cities and our towns and our communities. And what we’re doing is we are going after the worst of the worst no matter where they’re at and that’s including in New York and Mamdani can’t do a thing about it because we’re going to enforce laws, not pick and choose which laws we are going to enforce like he chooses. Here’s a clip of Mullin’s remarks about the NYC mayor: DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin on Mamdani: "He and I don't get along. It's shameful. And hopefully people in New York will wise up and get a true leader in there in a few years." pic.twitter.com/LpguUKl85l — Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) June 11, 2026 Meanwhile, here’s what Mamdani has been up to: Mayor Zohran Mamdani hosted a Pride party at NYC Town Hall, where he announced a $15 MILLION investment into "gender affirming care," aka genital mutilations.

And it’s coming,” Homan said during an appearance on Fox News’ “Fox & Friends.” He added, “I just reviewed an operational plan. I’m not going to tell you exactly when it’s going to happen, but it’s coming.” Here’s a flashback to what Homan had to say about Mamdani several months ago: What are your thoughts?

President Trump said he would consider running Washington D.C., on a “federal basis” if a ‘Mamdani-style’ candidate wins the city’s mayoral election. “Mr. President, here in Washington D.C., there is a Democratic primary for mayor. One of the two leading candidates, Janeese Lewis George, is running a Zohran Mamdani campaign focused on socialist policies. How would you feel if she emerges victorious in next Tuesday’s race?” Gray Television’s Jon Decker asked. “I wouldn’t like it,” Trump responded. “Maybe we take back Washington, run it on the federal basis. We won’t put up with it. We’re not going to lose our businesses,” he added. Watch below: Q: There's a crazy socialist running for mayor of Washington, D.C. What if she wins?@POTUS: "I wouldn't like it — and maybe we take back Washington, run it on the federal basis. We won't put up with it.

Voters on June 16 will decide D.C.’s first new mayor in 12 years, with mail-in ballots already being cast. Trump talk dominated much of the NBC4 forum, seen as the contest’s final marquee stage in the tight contest. Janeese Lewis George tried to portray Kenyan McDuffie as soft on Trump, arguing his campaign had taken donations from supporters of the president, amounting to “tens of thousands of dollars” after a public match. To which McDuffie, whose stump speech often deploys the phrase “my fight is with Donald Trump,” shot back, saying “99.9%” of his donors are Democrats. “She’s engaging in a campaign of disinformation that is as Trump-like as you can get.” On the flip side, McDuffie claimed Lewis George is soft on crime, claiming her record on the D.C. Council backing progressive policing measures would make the city less safe. “By the way, Washington now is a safe, beautiful place,” Trump said. “People are coming, restaurants are thriving. The restaurants were all closing, closed. Nobody wanted — now you can’t get restaurant space, You can’t get in,” Trump continued. “We have a thriving community, we got rid of crime. We’re 92% down on crime, think of it. We will be close to 100% pretty soon. You always have some whack job someplace, but we will be close to 100%. Washington is thriving,” he added.

She’s skeptical of Trump’s efforts to make D.C. beautiful again. “Trump is not necessarily the safest actor in all of this,” Sampath said. “He does so much of this haphazardly,” she added, pointing to other projects like the proposed 250-foot triumphal arch. “There’s no such thing as free lunch with a relationship with the president of the United States,” Sampath said. “While you want to immediately go toward praising his accomplishments, I just don’t think it comes for free. I think there’s always some kind of a caveat.” The fountain at Meridian Hill Park, known to locals as Malcolm X Park, shut off in 2019, just four years into Bowser’s tenure. Vincent “VO” Orange, who’s spent nearly 15 years in D.C. politics, said “it felt like a gut punch” when the fountain was turned off. Orange, the former president of D.C.’s Chamber of Commerce and at-large council member, acknowledged the effort requires maintenance and funding to keep projects alive. But he’s “all in” for future endeavors. Police reform has also roiled the race — particularly in light of Trump’s push to crack down on crime. There’s general consensus an MPD shakeup is coming. Interim Chief Jeffery Carroll is likely on the way out no matter who wins the race. In a forum this month, zero of the six participating candidates raised their hand when asked if they would keep Carroll in the post.
