As reported, Democrats have made impossible demands simply to keep the government going for seven weeks while Congress meets to appropriate funds. It is obvious that the far-left of the Democrat party is demanding the endless shutdown to hurt President Trump at the expense of Americans. There is no end in sight. Some in the […] The post Sen.

Authorities have arrested the man accused of threatening to kill Babylon Bee founder Seth Dillon. Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier announced the development on X, stating: “Last week, our Office of Statewide Prosecution was notified of multiple death threats made to Jewish conservative media members who live in Florida.” Following the notification, prosecutors secured an arrest warrant, which law enforcement then executed. The suspect, now in custody, faces “charges of extortion, written threats to kill, and unlawful use of a two-way communication device.” User “zionistarescum,” who authorities now identify as 28-year-old Nicholas Ray, allegedly posted a disturbing message directly threatening Dillon. You live in Houston, right? I’ve been in touch with law enforcement and they have some questions. pic.twitter.com/ApcZ0BV8Rf — Seth Dillon (@SethDillon) October 13, 2025 The Daily Wire reviewed Ray’s alleged account and uncovered disturbing posts criticizing Israel and President Trump, as well as Republican lawmakers. Ray’s arrest comes at a time plagued by a troubling surge in political violence. On Monday, Dillon published an article with the Free Press urging both sides, Right and Left, to take an introspective look at the ideology and policies they promote. Dillon launched his satirical news site in 2016 in an effort to “speak truth through humor.” The outlet grew into a major force with 2.2 million followers on Instagram and more than 5 million on X. However, the company’s rise brought conflict. Before Elon Musk purchased Twitter in 2022, the company suspended Dillon’s account over a post poking fun at USA Today’s “Woman of the Year.” Join us now during our exclusive Deal of the Decade.

Elon Musk reinstated the account seven months later when he assumed ownership of Twitter and rebranded it as X. Most recently, the Babylon Bee found itself in court arguing over a bill signed by Gavin Newsom limiting the use of “deep fake images.” After the court sided with the Babylon Bee, their attorney commented, “The court was right to rein in California’s blatant censorship. We can’t trust the government to decide what is true in our online political debates.” Senator Eric Schmitt (R-MO) announced on Tuesday that he will host a hearing on politically violent attacks to address the disturbing upward trend. This summer alone saw the murder of two Democratic Minnesota lawmakers and the assassination of Turning Point Founder Charlie Kirk. Schmitt stated, “The rise of political violence on the left is deeply disturbing and antithetical to America values, disturbs the free exercise of our constitutional rights, and is a threat to our constitutional order.”

President Donald Trump ripped the look of former President Barack Obama’s presidential library on Tuesday. A reporter asked the president about it as Trump took questions in the Oval Office. Obama’s presidential library, estimated to cost roughly $850 million, is being constructed on Chicago’s South Side and has been criticized for its bulky obelisk-like appearance. “It’s not too pretty,” said Trump. “He wanted only women and DEI to build it. Well? That’s what they got.” Trump made an example of his own experience building in Chicago and offered tips to the former president. “I built a great building in Chicago, as you know, a big, beautiful building, one of the tallest buildings in the country, and we got it built very quickly, very well, and we used the construction workers of Chicago. They’re great workers. They’re great construction people. And I suggest that you get them involved,” said Trump. “But they’re hundreds of millions of dollars over budget, and I think it stopped. I’m reading these terrible stories, but that’s the way our country was run under President Obama, too. Nobody knew it,” the president added. Join us now during our exclusive Deal of the Decade.

The “Obamalisk,” as Obama’s presidential library has come to be known, is a blocky, granite tower that expands 225-feet into the air. The structure includes a community library and an NBA-sized basketball court, designed to be an active community center as much as a favorable view of Obama’s presidency. To save space for the site’s sizable amenities, the library will not house physical copies of the records of Obama’s presidency. The physical records will be stored elsewhere in a site run by the National Archives. Digital copies of the records of Obama’s two terms in the Oval Office will be available to view, however. The decision to digitize the records and store the physical copies off-site, an unusual decision for presidential libraries, has worried some historians. Historians are also concerned that research at the site will be overseen by Obama’s private foundation, the Obama Foundation, which will have offices in the building, rather than the National Archives.

Many on the left expressed their outrage after images appeared on social media of demolition commencing at the White House to build the ballroom ordered by President Donald Trump.Among those outraged were California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D), who posted a response on social media.'Unhinged leftists and their Fake News allies are clutching their pearls over President Donald J. Trump's visionary addition of a grand, privately funded ballroom to the White House.'"Ripping apart the White House just like he's ripping apart the Constitution," Newsom said.The White House fired back via its own social media account by pointing out Newsom's hypocrisy."Your Capitol renovation is costing California taxpayers $1.1 BILLION — 4x more than the privately funded White House ballroom, which costs taxpayers NOTHING," the account wrote.The construction of the ballroom is being paid in part by $22 million from the settlement Trump reached with Alphabet, the parent company of YouTube, over its decision to suspend the president's account after the Jan. 6 rioting."It's not his house. It's your house. And he's destroying it," Hillary Clinton replied.The president's son Eric Trump replied to Clinton."The ballroom will be spectacular ... unlike your work in Haiti," he said, referring to controversy surrounding the Clinton Foundation.Others pounced to criticize the president."Trump won't pay for health care, education, or a federal government budget. But Trump will build a brand new $200 million ballroom for himself and his donors. It's clear what Trump's priorities are — and the American people are not on that list," replied Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts."Everyone knows the ballroom monstrosity he's having built is nothing more than a testament to corruption, bribery central, the new headquarters of the old swamp. Trump is destroying the White House. He's destroying America. Disgusting," responded liberal influencer Majid M. Padellan."Sometimes the symbolism feels like it's just too obvious; too much on the nose. Trump is vandalizing the White House to build his gaudy Liberace-on-steroids ballroom, using cash from his serial shakedowns of the rich and spineless," Trump critic Charlie Sykes replied.RELATED: YouTube agrees to $24.5 million settlement for 2021 suspension of Trump social media account The White House mocked the reaction in a statement that included a list of renovations made by other presidents."In the latest instance of manufactured outrage, unhinged leftists and their Fake News allies are clutching their pearls over President Donald J. Trump's visionary addition of a grand, privately funded ballroom to the White House," reads the statement, "a bold, necessary addition that echoes the storied history of improvements and additions from commanders-in-chief to keep the executive residence as a beacon of American excellence."The construction of the ballroom is being funded by the Trust for the National Mall nonprofit organization."We're putting up our own money. The government is paying for nothing. You probably hear the beautiful sound of construction to the back. You hear that sound? That's music to my ears. ... When I hear that sound it reminds me of money. In this case it reminds me of lack of money because I'm paying for it," the president said to Republicans Tuesday.Like Blaze News?
