I don’t expect much from the Episcopal Church, but it still speaks volumes when a bishop refuses to condemn the invasion of a church service. Last weekend, a group of agitators invaded Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota, taking over the sanctuary, terrifying children, and chanting, “Who shut this down? We shut this down!” It wasn’t a peaceful protest. It wasn’t a demonstration. It was a horde of Vandals entering the sanctuary and coopting it for their political agenda. Such an attack reminds me more of the sack of Rome than Martin Luther King, Jr. This is not peaceful protest. This is an invasion of a sacred space. Anti-ICE agitators disrupted Cities Church in the middle of service. Warning: the agitators on the Left are serious. The man who posted this video bragged about doing this—comparing it to Jesus flipping over… pic.twitter.com/BeeIdubpwM— Tyler O'Neil (@Tyler2ONeil) January 19, 2026 It doesn’t matter that the agitators claimed one of the church’s pastors is the acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement in St. Paul. It doesn’t matter that they claimed to be opposing ICE. There isn’t even evidence of that particular pastor’s presence at this service—and that wouldn’t justify agitators harassing him there, anyway. It certainly doesn’t justify them disrupting the First Amendment rights of others in the congregation. Law enforcement has arrested at least three of the ringleaders behind this invasion, and I pray that more arrests are coming—because activists need to learn that this is unacceptable. You don’t bring your political demands into the sanctity of a church in the middle of worship. I can’t believe that message even needs to be said, but apparently, it does. Sadly, they it seems won’t be hearing it from the leadership of the Episcopal Church. Episcopal Bishop Carries Water for Church Invaders On Friday, CNN’s Audie Cornish asked Craig Loya, the Episcopal bishop of Minnesota, how he responded to concerns about the invasion of Cities Church. “People are also looking at images of a protest in a church, people going in and saying look, the pastor’s affiliated with ICE or whatever they believe, and interrupting services,” Cornish noted. “Do you think that was the right thing to do?” When presented with this question, the very least a commonsense American can say is, “No.” I would argue that Americans, in the spirit of the First Amendment, are duty-bound to say more. I would argue that American religious leaders should full-throatedly condemn the invasion of a church service in pursuit of a political agenda. This is a house of God, and the agitators sought to turn it into a raucous protest. The “right reverend” Loya did none of that, however. Instead, he carried water for the agitators, suggesting that the invasion might have been justified because ICE has been deporting illegal aliens in the Land of 10,000 Lakes. “I think part of what you’re seeing in that protest speaks to the depth of pain that people are experiencing right now in Minnesota,” the bishop said. “And the, really, desperation and longing to end what ICE is doing in our communities and to many of us and our neighbors.” Episcopal ‘Logic’ Sure, these agitators harassed innocent Christians as they sought to worship God. Sure, they coopted a church service and bragged about shutting it down. Sure, they probably violated the law by depriving their fellow Americans of their First Amendment right to exercise their religion. But, you’ve got to understand the deep trauma they experienced at the hands of ICE. They’ve been whipped up into a frenzy by the legacy media’s lies about ICE detaining a 5-year-old or any of the long list of false accusations. They’ve been radicalized by Gov. Tim Walz’s suggestion that President Donald Trump is at war with Minnesota and that ICE is an “occupation.” They just can’t stand the fact that we have laws in this country, and the horrible thought that illegal aliens who broke them—especially when those illegals have also committed other crimes—should be deported. Never mind the pastor asking the agitators to leave, and facing a classic situation of trespass. Never mind the congregants who gathered to worship, but found themselves surrounded by shouting activists. Never mind the children who are holding close to their parents as radicals shout at them in the middle of a church service. All that “pain” is apparently inconsequential to this church “leader” who does not deserve the title of “reverend.” There’s nothing “right” about his willingness to carry water for this atrocity. I’ve said it before, and I expect I’ll be saying it again many times: Thank God I left the Episcopal Church.

Vice President J.D. Vance, speaking Friday at the annual March for Life in Washington, D.C., described abortion as the modern-day equivalent of child sacrifice. And it's true. There is no getting around the fact that without the abortion, another person with dreams and talent and the ability to have children...

Two days ago, we brought you a report that Barron Trump literally saved a woman’s life in the United Kingdom when he saw her being attacked and called emergency services. That report here: Woman Tells UK Court Barron Trump Saved Her Life Now today we have the transcript of the emergency call and it will make your blood boil! Why are all of these Far-Left places like the UK or Minneapolis literally weaponized against the citizens? They treat the criminals as protected and the citizens as criminals! Check this out: Barron Trump called 999 after hearing a friend be assaulted over the phone. Below is the transcript of that call. I can already describe to you exactly what the operator looks like from this transcript, but if I tell you I will be in big, big trouble. pic.twitter.com/8VEcDC0d6g — Landeur ??????? (@Landeur) January 22, 2026 Closer look here: TEXT HERE IN CASE THAT'S HARD TO READ: OPERATOR: Okay how do you know her? BARRON: I don't think these details matter she's getting beat up but okay fine, also I met her on social media, I don't think that matters. OPERATOR: You know I can... BARRON: She's getting beat up! OPERATOR: Can you stop being rude and actually answer my questions. If you want to help the person, you'll answer my questions clearly and precisely, thank you. So how do you know her? BARRON: I met her on social media. OPERATOR: Okay. OPERATOR: Know the partners name or the person that's beating her up at all? BARRON: No. OPERATOR: And they're at home, they're not out into the street? BARRON: Correct. She's getting really badly beat up and the call was about 8 minutes ago, I don't know what could have happened by now. OPERATOR: Okay. BARRON: So, sorry for being rude. Grok confirms the call and the transcript are authentic: Emergency Call Transcript Verification The emergency call transcript shared in that X post appears to be verified as real and accurate. It was released by the UK's Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) as evidence in the ongoing trial of Matvei Rumiantsev, a 22-year-old accused of assaulting a woman in London on January 18, 2025. Key Details of the Incident Witness: Barron Trump, then 19, reportedly witnessed the alleged attack via a video call with the woman (whom he described as a friend he met on social media). Action Taken: He called the City of London Police from the US to report it. Impact: The woman testified in court that the call "helped save my life." Authenticity and Evidence Transcript Accuracy: The transcript matches the one published by official sources and media outlets, with some redactions to protect the victim's identity. Witness Statement: Barron did not testify in person but provided a witness statement via email to UK authorities. Call Handling: The call handler's tone drew some criticism in reports for accusing Barron of being "rude" amid the urgency, but the focus remains on the incident itself. Verification: No credible sources have disputed its authenticity, and it's been widely covered as factual in the context of the court proceedings. ORIGINAL REPORT: Woman Tells UK Court Barron Trump Saved Her Life A woman told a London court that Barron Trump saved her life by contacting police in the United Kingdom when he allegedly witnessed her being attacked by her ex-boyfriend on a FaceTime call, multiple outlets report. According to Metro UK, Barron Trump picked up a FaceTime call from the woman and allegedly saw Matvei Rumianstev hitting her. “It is claimed that Rumianstev, 22, was jealous of her friendship with Donald Trump’s youngest son,” the outlet stated. Barron Trump ‘saved’ friend’s life by calling cops while she was being beaten by ex-boyfriend, she says https://t.co/KPENXx2XMH pic.twitter.com/DA4ZvLMcKf — New York Post (@nypost) January 21, 2026 Metro UK shared further: Snaresbrook Crown Court heard a dramatic call in which Barron told 999 operators: ‘I just got a call from a girl I know. She’s getting beaten up’. The call to UK police was made at 2.23am on January 18 last year. After giving the woman’s address, he repeats: ‘It’s really an emergency, please. I got a call from her with a guy beating her up.’ Bodyworn footage from when police arrived was played in court, showing officers asking the woman if Rumianstev had been streaming during the alleged assault. They told her that someone in the US had been in touch, but he did not give his name. Eventually, she told them: ‘I am friends with Barron Trump, Donald Trump’s son.’ After she explains the Facetime call earlier that evening, one of the officers can then be heard telling a colleague: ‘So apparently this informant from America is likely to be Donald Trump’s son.’ He adds: ‘This female is friends with Donald Trump’s son. She was on a Facetime with him when this assault happened and he’s called us.’ The unidentified woman told the courtroom that Barron Trump “saved my life” during Rumianstev’s trial. Donald Trump's youngest son Barron saved the life of a woman by calling the police when he witnessed her being beaten up over a videocall, a court heard. https://t.co/tf9hJN4TeQ pic.twitter.com/rNRqAc3NyS — Daily Mail US (@Daily_MailUS) January 21, 2026 More from Daily Mail: The woman is then asked to call Barron back, and the American explains to officers that he could see her crying and being struck during the FaceTime call. ‘I called you guys – that was the best thing I could do. I wasn’t going to call back and threaten things to him because that would just make the situation worse,’ he told the officers. Giving evidence, the woman said: ‘He [Barron Trump] helped save my life. That call was like a sign from God at that moment.’ Rumiantsev has been charged with raping the woman on two occasions, assault, actual bodily harm and perverting the course of justice. Police attended his home in Poplar, east London, in the early hours of January 18, 2025, following two 999 calls from the alleged victim and one from Barron. The woman told officers she had been slapped, punched, kicked and strangled during the assault. While in custody, Rumiantsev tricked officers into allowing him to phone the woman, and was overheard saying words to the effect of ‘while you are sleeping in your warm bed, I’m in jail,’ Serena Gates, prosecuting, said. Eight days later, the Russian made a call from prison to a friend named Arsen, saying he had already posted him a letter that he should give to the woman, in which he pleads with her to withdraw her statement. The alleged victim withdrew her statement but later retracted this, telling police the original account was true and that Rumiantsev, a former MMA fighter, had also sexually assaulted her on two occasions. She explained that the Russian would deliberately get her so drunk that he could have sex with her without her being able to consent. She said she had asked him why he did this to her and he responded ‘you never want to do this with me so I make you drink and do this to you.’ Sasha Wass KC, defending, has suggested that her accounts of the alleged attacks were ‘untrue and fabricated’. Rumiantsev denies assault, ABH, two counts of rape, intentional strangulation and perverting the course of justice. The trial continues. How do you feel about it?

President Donald Trump renewed his call for a comprehensive criminal investigation into Minnesota Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar in a series of posts on Truth Social on Thursday.

Why is this liberal agitator 'lauded as a hero?': Greg Kelly

U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy is trying to rev up support to host an IndyCar race on the National Mall in August as part of the country’s celebration of 250 years. The only problem? Democrats are trying to pump the brakes on the idea. Fast cars and freedom sound like an all-American good time. Several backseat-driving Democrats, however, think it’s “absurd” for Congress to give the green light to an IndyCar race in D.C. when lawmakers won’t even extend health care subsidies, Punchbowl News reported. The race needs Congress to pass a bill for the event because, currently, there’s a ban on advertising on the Capitol grounds. And what do race cars have all over? Ads. A United States Department of Transportation spokesperson emphasized what the event would mean to commemorate America250. “The Grand Prix is an unprecedented opportunity to celebrate our nation’s proud racing pedigree, showcase the beauty of the National Mall, and generate millions in critical tourism revenue for the Capital. The Trump Administration is determined to make D.C. great again, and this race is another example of that commitment. We’ll keep working with our partners in Congress to outline the positive impacts it will have on the District and correct the record.” The America250 celebration is already set to have a much-anticipated live UFC event on the White House Lawn, the MLB All-Star Game in Philadelphia, and the Patriot Games in Washington, D.C. The proposed race would start at the Supreme Court and then do an entire lap around the National Mall, including the Lincoln Memorial. “Pit Row” would be set up by the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. The IndyCar Grand Prix idea has been floated to the aides of Speaker Mike Johnson, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, Senate Majority Leader John Thune, and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer. A bipartisan prix is worrisome to the Democrats, who seem to only know how to white-knuckle the steering wheel. They argue it puts a strain on the U.S. Capitol Police and the surrounding roads. Democrats also think Republicans haven’t been helpful to them, according to Punchbowl News. They aren’t too keen on this race because so far the GOP has refused to hang a plaque honoring the victims of the January 6 Capitol riot, an aide told the outlet. IndyCar told The Daily Wire that new events are something the organization welcomes. “We continue to work on new events for the NTT INDYCAR SERIES. Major East Coast markets – like Washington D.C. and several other large metro destinations – are priorities for us,” a spokesperson said. IndyCar has races scheduled for August already, but none in Washington, D.C. Per the league’s schedule, Secretary Duffy’s target date of August 21 is open. Still, it seems there might be a few pit stops before this event gets to the finish line.
