Russia continued its air strikes on Ukraine overnight, hours after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said he had a "very constructive" phone call with Donald Trump's negotiating team following three days of talks in Florida. Early on Sunday the mayor of Kremenchuk, a major industrial hub in central Ukraine, said the city had been repeatedly struck in a "massive" attack. No deaths have been confirmed so far.

President Trump is the true heir to Ronald Reagan when it comes to championing the former president's policy of "peace through strength," Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said Saturday. Mr. Hegseth, in a major speech to the Reagan National Defense Forum, also defended the Trump administration's deadly missile strikes on alleged drug-trafficking vessels, including a controversial secondary attack Sept. 2 that Mr. Hegseth said killed two "narco-terrorists."

A U.S. Coast Guard ship seized more than 20,000 pounds of cocaine from a single ship this week, making the largest at-sea interdiction in nearly 20 years, officials said. The Coast Guard said the crew of the Munro, a cutter that patrols the Pacific and is based in Alameda, California, made the seizure during "counter-narcotics operations" in the Eastern Pacific. The incident was part of Operation Pacific Viper, an effort by the Trump Administration to stop the flow of illicit drugs through the Pacific Ocean.

from 21st Century Wire: The Islander writes… As it became known following five hours of tense negotiations with the American delegation inside the Kremlin’s stone walls, one issue, unsurprisingly remained a gaping wound, the territorial question. And Washington, true to form, came with its recycled 28 point plan. Dusting off pages from the 28-point “Trump Plan,” […]

(Daily Caller News Foundation) — Hoover Institution Senior Fellow Victor Davis Hanson said Friday on Fox Business that Democratic Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz faces serious political fallout as public frustration mounts over the state’s massive Somali-linked welfare fraud schemes. Walz defended his handling of the state’s sprawling Somali-linked welfare fraud scandal on Sunday, saying Minnesota “attracts criminals” while insisting his administration should get credit for the prosecutions rather than blame for the more than $1 billion stolen.

Federal charging documents reveal the January 6th pipe bomber began purchasing bomb-making materials in June 2020, coinciding with the George Floyd riots and anti-police hysteria—a timeline that exposes the true motivation behind this attack on our democracy. Critical Timeline Reveals True Motivation The federal charging documents paint a damning picture of premeditation that began long before January 6th ever entered public discourse. According to the seven-page criminal complaint affidavit, the suspect made his first pipe purchase on June 1, 2020, followed by kitchen timers on June 3, additional pipes on June 8, end caps on June 20, and safety glasses in July. This wasn’t random collecting—this was a man with a specific plan driven by the radical leftist messaging dominating that summer. Did You Know: The FBI held a meeting with the George Floyd medical examiner before he released the autopsy of Floyd's body The original autopsy showed that Floyd had no physical evidence of asphyxiation pic.twitter.com/KRl58Nuq5l — Jack Posobiec (@JackPosobiec) August 20, 2024 Summer of Riots Sparked Deadly Planning The timing is no coincidence. June 2020 marked the height of Black Lives Matter riots following George Floyd’s death, with burning police precincts, corporate virtue signaling, and wall-to-wall media coverage portraying America as systemically racist. The charging documents show the suspect had been casually purchasing bomb components since October 2019, but the concentrated buying spree began precisely when leftist politicians and media figures were calling police murderers and demanding defunding. This represents a clear radicalization moment that the mainstream media refuses to acknowledge. Methodical Bomb Construction Process Federal investigators tracked the suspect through credit card purchases, cell phone data, and license plate readers, creating an airtight case. The affidavit details how each component met the legal threshold for weapons charges and describes video surveillance capturing the suspect’s movements near the Capitol. Remarkably, the document reveals continued purchases of incendiary device components even after January 6th, suggesting ongoing terrorist intentions. The thorough investigation spanned multiple pages covering everything from the suspect’s height measurements in surveillance footage to precise store locations and timestamps. Biden Administration’s Deliberate Cover-Up The most disturbing aspect isn’t the crime itself—it’s the Biden FBI’s refusal to pursue justice for American patriots. For years, this administration weaponized federal law enforcement against January 6th protesters while deliberately ignoring the pipe bomber who actually threatened lives. The evidence was overwhelming: detailed purchase records, surveillance footage, cell tower data, and physical evidence. Yet Biden’s politicized Justice Department chose to protect a narrative rather than prosecute a terrorist whose actions were likely inspired by their own anti-American rhetoric and policies.
