The sheriff of Laramie County, Wyoming, just sent a loud and clear warning to illegal immigrants in his county: “Truck around and find out.” Sheriff Brian Kozak said his office conducted “a three-day operation called ‘Truck Around and Find Out'” that led to 177 vehicle stops, nabbing 32 illegal immigrants along major interstates in the Cowboy State. Those illegal immigrants have since been turned over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). “I really want to thank the truck drivers who are out there doing it right. I especially want to thank the truck drivers that were honking at our deputies, waving at them, stopping, thanking our deputies for helping them keep their industry safe and our roadways safe in Laramie County,” Kozak said in a recent Instagram video. “So hopefully now the word is out, this is not the county that you want to truck around and find out. And when I say truck around, I mean drive a truck undocumented, unlicensed, and unsafe,” he said. The operation focused on commercial trucks and cars driving recklessly near them. Deputies also issued 51 citations overall. “Our traffic unit, which I have three full-time deputies assigned to traffic enforcement, they are looking for these violations every day,” Kozak told the Cowboy State Daily Friday. “And they seem to be bringing in either unlicensed or undocumented truck drivers every other day.” “So, it’s a continuing thing for us,” he said.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Laramie County Sheriff (@laramiecountysheriff) Similar operations have been done along major highways in Indiana, Oklahoma, Texas, and California, where hundreds of illegal immigrant truckers have been pulled off the roads. The issue earned national attention after Harjinder Singh, an illegal immigrant from India, allegedly killed three people after making an illegal U-turn on a Florida interstate in August. Singh had received a California commercial driver’s license after crossing the southern border illegally in 2018. He later failed his commercial driver’s license test ten times in two months before he received it, Fox News previously reported. Singh’s fatal crash is part of a larger string of devastating collisions caused by illegal immigrant truckers. The issue will also be spotlighted at a House Homeland Security Subcommittee on Oversight, Investigations, and Accountability hearing on Wednesday that will feature the sheriff from the county where Singh’s crash occurred, The Daily Wire first reported. “We’re seeing in Wyoming and throughout the country, these big trucks are causing crashes and people are dying,” Kozak told the Cowboy State Daily.

Former President Bill Clinton faced multiple questions surrounding a Jeffrey Epstein-related photo that showed him soaking in a hot tub with an unknown woman. During his four-and-a-half-hour deposition before the House Oversight Committee last week, Clinton was handed the hot tub photo. The woman’s face was redacted in the Justice Department’s Epstein files dump. The former president, who took dozens of trips with Epstein in the early 2000s, said that the photo was taken in Brunei, a small country in Southeast Asia. Clinton testified that he does not remember who the woman in the photo is. “I had forgotten that there was anybody in the hot tub,” Clinton told lawmakers, adding, “I don’t know who that is.” Asked if he engaged in any sexual activity with the woman in the photo, Clinton responded, “No.” Image via Justice Department Clinton said the hot tub was in the same area as a large pool where other people were swimming when the photo was taken. Asked if anyone in the pool area was a minor, Clinton said, “No.” He also said that he believes a Secret Service agent was “at the other end of the pool.” Another photo released by the Justice Department shows Clinton swimming in the pool with Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell and a woman whose face was redacted. Clinton said the pool area was not public and was on a hotel floor next to multiple suites where the former president and his team were staying on invitation from the sultan of Brunei. Clinton testified that he swam in the pool and enjoyed the hot tub for a brief time late at night before going to bed. “I swam around, I sat in the hot tub for five minutes or whatever it was, and I got up and went to bed,” he said. Image via Justice Department Clinton joined Epstein on the financier’s infamous airplane at least 26 times. Many of the trips were part of Clinton’s global AIDS initiative, according to the former president. Clinton testified that he took his final flight on Epstein’s “Lolita Express” in 2003, five years before Epstein pleaded guilty to soliciting a child for prostitution. Asked why he stopped traveling with the well-connected financier, Clinton said that after his AIDS initiative “picked up steam,” he began receiving offers from other people he “knew better” and “really cared about the work” who wanted to help with transportation. “I thought Mr. Epstein was an interesting man, but I didn’t think he was really interested in what I was doing,” he added. Clinton said he had an agreement with Epstein. The late financier would provide the private jet for transportation. On those trips, Clinton said he would chat with Epstein about politics and economics. “He never asked me anything untoward,” Clinton said of Epstein. “It’s just I thought I had done what I promised, what I promised to do, and he had done what he promised to do. And I’ve always, over the years, with donors, tried not to overstay my welcome.” Clinton said he first learned of Epstein’s sex crimes in 2008 when he pleaded guilty. “There’s nothing that I saw when I was around him that made me realize he was trafficking women,” the former president added. Watch Clinton’s full deposition:

Vice President JD Vance said Monday that the U.S. military has “much greater capacity” to destroy Iran’s nuclear program if necessary.  Speaking with Fox News host Jesse Watters, Vance said that President Donald Trump would take every necessary action to ensure that Iran could not get a nuclear weapon. He said that the operation launched in June 2025 to take out multiple Iranian nuclear facilities damaged its ability to build nuclear weapons in the short term, but that the president wanted to block Iran’s capability for the long term.  “We have a lot of capacity here,” Vance said. “Obviously, I’m not going to reveal classified information here on air, but the President of the United States knows what we’re able to do. He knows that we have much greater capacity to inflict damage on the Iranian nuclear program.” “So I think the president has made it very clear that the United States has a lot of optionality here,” Vance added.  Trump has estimated the operation could last four to five weeks, but has said it could continue longer to permanently eliminate Iran’s capacity to have a nuclear weapon.  “We could go for a little bit longer, we could go for a lot longer, but I think the president just wants to make it clear to the Iranians and to the world that he is not going to rest until he accomplishes that all-important objective of ensuring that Iran can’t have a nuclear weapon,” he said.  Vance, a former Marine who fought in Iraq, has been critical of previous American interventions in the Middle East. Watters asked whether the conflict with Iran could turn into another Iraq or Afghanistan.  “There’s just no way that Donald Trump is gonna allow this country to get into a multi-year conflict with no clear end in sight and no clear objective. 
What is different about President Trump, and it’s frankly different about both Republicans and Democrats of the past, is that he’s not going to let this country go to war unless there’s a clearly defined objective,” Vance said. “He’s defined that objective as Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon and has to commit long-term to never trying to rebuild the nuclear capability.”

Former President Bill Clinton walked back remarks he made under oath that appeared to suggest Illinois Democrat Gov. JB Pritzker accompanied him on one of the flights he took aboard convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein’s private plane.  Clinton mentioned Pritzker when asked who typically accompanied him on flights he took on Epstein’s plane, according to a video released Monday by the House Oversight Committee. After the clip circulated on social media, Clinton’s spokesman asserted that the former president did not mean to say that Pritzker flew on Epstein’s plane.  “President Clinton was simply giving an example of the many people he traveled with to see the Clinton Foundation’s work. Governor Pritzker joined a Clinton Foundation trip in 2008,” said Clinton spokesman Angel Urena. “Not on Epstein’s plane. Not with Epstein. Not with Maxwell.” During his deposition, Rep. Glenn Grothman (R-WI) asked who Clinton “normally” brought with him on those flights. Clinton said he “brought people who work with me, especially people who would have to follow up on the fundraising, or people who were involved” in his work.  “I had the Secret Service with me. And then on occasion, I had people who had volunteered to help us and wanted to see what we’re doing,” Clinton added. “For example, I think it was on one of these trips, I think that I had my first trip for the man who’s now the governor of Illinois, JB Pritzker and his wife, they gave me, they helped me get started.” A clip circulating on social media, shared by RNC Research, highlighted the exchange. Bill Clinton says he brought JB Pritzker on pedophile Jeffrey Epstein’s plane: “I think that I had my first trip for the man who’s now the Governor of Illinois, JB Pritzker and his wife.” pic.twitter.com/p6GtSbpgGX — RNC Research (@RNCResearch) March 3, 2026 Pritzker campaign spokesman Alex Gough told The Daily Wire that the governor traveled with Clinton twice, but said the travel was not on Epstein’s plane.  “Governor Pritzker was asked to travel with President Clinton on two trips, once in 2008 and once in 2013. Neither utilized Jeffrey Epstein’s aircraft, nor was he accompanied by that man or Ghislaine Maxwell,” he said. “We understand that the GOP is desperate to deflect from the heinous accusations against President Trump in the Epstein Files, but this is a particularly weak effort to assign blame where there is none.” Gough did not provide a comment on whether Pritzker had ever had any other interactions with Epstein.  The governor’s cousin, Thomas Pritzker, announced last month that he was stepping down from his executive position at the Hyatt hotel corporation over his ties to Epstein and Maxwell.  “Good stewardship also means protecting Hyatt, particularly in the context of my association with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell which I deeply regret. I exercised terrible judgment in maintaining contact with them, and there is no excuse for failing to distance myself sooner,” Thomas Pritzker said in a news release. “I condemn the actions and the harm caused by Epstein and Maxwell and I feel deep sorrow for the pain they inflicted on their victims.”

Long before George Washington, America’s first government handed the title “president” to men most Americans have never heard of—a fact that challenges everything we’re told about our founding leadership. The Forgotten Presidents Before Washington Decades before the United States ratified the Constitution, the fledgling nation operated under the Articles of Confederation. This framework, ratified in 1781, established a weak national government known as the Confederation Congress. Remarkably, this Congress selected a “president” for one-year terms to preside over its sessions and carry out administrative duties. The very first to hold this title was Samuel Huntington, who presided as the Articles took effect. Several others followed, but their roles were largely ceremonial, lacking the executive authority and public recognition associated with the presidency after 1789. Limited Power Under the Articles of Confederation The presidents under the Articles of Confederation wielded almost no independent power. Unlike the presidency created by the U.S. Constitution, these early figures were essentially chairmen of Congress—unable to enforce laws, command the military, or act as a national spokesman. Their authority was strictly confined to overseeing meetings and handling correspondence. This structure reflected the Founders’ fear of centralized authority, a reaction against the tyranny they had experienced under British rule. The result was a government nearly paralyzed by its own limitations, unable to effectively address national crises or defend American interests abroad. The Shift to a Strong Executive: Why the Constitution Was Needed By the mid-1780s, the weaknesses of the Articles became painfully clear. The inability of these early “presidents” to act decisively led to economic turmoil, internal unrest, and a government nearly powerless to secure the nation’s borders or regulate commerce. Calls grew for a new constitution that would provide for a strong, accountable executive. When the Constitution was ratified in 1788, it established the office of President of the United States, granting explicit powers over the military, foreign policy, and law enforcement. George Washington was unanimously elected the first constitutional president in 1789, ushering in a new era of federal authority—and setting the foundation for the executive powers that are fiercely debated and defended by conservatives today. Conservative Lessons From America’s First “Presidents” This overlooked history is more than a trivia question—it is a warning about the dangers of weak government and the importance of clear constitutional limits. The failed experiment of the Articles of Confederation showed how a lack of executive power can cripple a nation. Yet, the Founders also avoided giving unchecked authority to one person, insisting on constitutional checks and balances. Today’s conservatives can draw lessons from this balance: we must defend the Constitution, guard against overreach, and remember that America’s greatness depends on both strong leadership and limited government. The evolution from powerless chairmen to a constitutionally bound president remains a powerful reminder of the wisdom—and the caution—embedded in America’s founding ideals.
