Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry announced on Tuesday that he would deploy 350 National Guard troops to New Orleans. “These citizen soldiers will help ensure safety during the busiest season in the city. We owe them all a debt of gratitude for their commitment to our State and Nation,” Landry said. “I also want to thank President @realDonaldTrump and @SecWar Hegseth for putting Americans and their safety first,” he added. “We know how to make cities safe, and the National Guard complements cities that are having high crime problems,” Landry said during an appearance on Fox News. “Look at what the president’s done in Washington, D.C. When he wanted to send the National Guard into Washington, D.C., Louisiana was one of the first to raise his hand and say, our troops will go there and help you. And the city is so much better,” he continued. Check it out: BREAKING: Today I am announcing 350 National Guard troops will be deployed to New Orleans.

Louisiana National Guard officials said service members will begin to provide help to law enforcement in New Orleans shortly after Christmas. The guard will assist with security in the New Orleans French Quarter for New Year’s Eve, the Sugar Bowl, and during Mardi Gras events. New Orleans witnessed a mass casualty attack this past New Year’s Day, which resulted in 15 deaths, including the perpetrator, and 57 others sustaining injuries. Driver Plows Through Crowded New Year’s Celebration In New Orleans, K*lling At Least 10 And Injuring Dozens More from Axios: That attack, which was quickly followed by New Orleans hosting the Super Bowl and the city's Mardi Gras festivities, prompted a weeks-long similar deployment. With the return of the Jan. 1 Sugar Bowl and the arrest of a New Iberia man whom the FBI said was planning a New Orleans attack, authorities have asked federal approval on an increased security rating, Fox 8 reports. Still, local leaders have been quick to note that violent crime rates remain significantly down. New Orleans' murder rate, for example, is on track this year to be at its lowest since the 1970s. In a shift from similar deployments elsewhere, Landry proactively requested that National Guard troops be used in Louisiana to back up local enforcement.

The Justice Department filed a lawsuit against Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker and Attorney General Kwame Raoul over a state law aimed at restricting federal immigration enforcement. According to CBS News, the Illinois Bivens Act (HB 1312) “bans civil immigration arrests at courthouses, and allows people to file civil lawsuits if they believe federal agents have violated their constitutional rights.” The DOJ said the state law threatens the safety of federal officers. The Department of Justice filed a lawsuit against Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker over new state laws aimed at protecting immigrants at courthouses, hospitals and day cares. https://t.co/snBhcx6U0T — The Washington Times (@WashTimes) December 23, 2025 CBS News shared further: In signing the act on Tuesday, Dec. 9, Pritzker said the state was “protecting people and institutions that belong here in Illinois.” “Dropping your kid off at day care, going to the doctor, or attending your classes should not be a life-altering task,” Pritzker said in part in a news release. “Illinois — in the face of cruelty and intimidation — has chosen solidarity and support.” Thousands of people were arrested and detained by U.S. Immigration Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection agents during two and a half months of heightened enforcement action the Trump administration dubbed Operation Midway Blitz. Pritzker is using a newly formed commission to document laws broken by federal agents during the operation. The goal, state officials said, is holding federal agents accountable for their actions — even if it happens years down the road. “The Department of Justice will steadfastly protect law enforcement from unconstitutional state laws like Illinois’ that threaten massive punitive liability and compromise the safety of our officers,” said Assistant Attorney General Brett A. Shumate of the Justice Department’s Civil Division. “Unfortunately, Illinois politicians prefer to attack law enforcement with lawsuits and punitive damages rather than support ICE’s Criminal Alien Program, which prioritizes the safe removal of dangerous criminal aliens like murderers, child rapists, and other serious offenders,” said U.S. Attorney Steven D. Weinhoeft for the Southern District of Illinois. “Courthouse arrests are only necessary in the first place because Illinois refuses to honor federal detainers at the jails and prisons, instead preferring to release criminals back into our communities,” Weinhoeft continued. The Hill has more: A spokesperson for Pritzker pushed back on the suggestion that the state is releasing criminals into local communities. “Governor Pritzker has always said that if someone commits a violent crime and is in the country illegally, then they do not belong in Illinois and need to be held accountable,” the spokesperson said in a statement to The Hill. “However, the Trump Administration’s masked agents are not targeting the ‘worst of the worst’ — they are harassing and detaining law-abiding U.S. citizens and Black and Brown people at daycares, hospitals, and courthouses,” the spokesperson continued. “This new law reflects our belief that no one is above the law, regardless of their position or authority. Unlike the Trump Administration, Illinois is protecting Constitutional rights in our state.” Raoul’s office said the attorney general is reviewing the complaint.

Rudy Giuliani’s life and career were DESTROYED over his claims that Georgia was stolen from Trump in the 2020 election. But now this week news has come out that Fulton County has now admitted to illegally counting 315,000 ballots. That report here if you missed it: BREAKING: Fulton County Admits It ILLEGALLY CERTIFIED 315,000+ Ballots In 2020 Election! And now that we have this admission, I've been dying to hear from Rudy Giuliani, how about you? I've been dying to hear him finally respond, and respond he did! He did not hold anything back, watch here: TRANSCRIPT: Speaker 1: In the meantime, Mayor, what so what was your reaction when you first heard that, uh, you know, over 315,000 votes in Fulton County, uh, lacked the required poll signatures, poll worker signatures necessary- Speaker 2: Well, if 315,000 votes were pulled out of Fulton County because they were illegal, as they should have been, Trump would have won the election by about 40,000 votes, maybe 50,000 votes. So I really do expect now that the people that attacked me over Georgia will come and kiss my feet. Nothing less is acceptable. Uh, I told you that, I told you that that was screwed up. And I am right, it was screwed up. I told you that he won that state. And when the president said to the slimy secretary of state, "You can't, you can't find me 11,000 votes?" He's talking about a potential couple of hundred thousand here. Remember, the votes in Fulton County were like- 3 to one for, uh, for him. So what so if you just take those votes out- Speaker 1: Right. Speaker 2: You deprive him of about, oh gosh, about 145,000 votes I think. Speaker 1: Right. Speaker 2: And then he goes under by- he loses by 135,000 and Trump wins Georgia. Now, you still have to win another state. But it isn't like there weren't the same problems elsewhere, which they very arrogantly dismiss by saying- Even the Wall Street Journal and The Post arrogantly dismiss it as saying, "The president deceitfully said that the election was rigged." Wrongfully suggested- Speaker 1: They lie. Speaker 2: That the election was rigged. They got to get that "wrongfully" out of there. That's an opinion, boys- a reality. The reality is- that you can now say with a certitude even beyond a reasonable doubt that Georgia, that Georgia voted for Trump. Backup here if needed: Rudy Giuliani reacts to the recent news that there were 315,000 votes illegally counted in Fulton County, GA during the 2020 election. “I really do expect now that the people who attacked me over Georgia will come and kiss my feet. Nothing less is acceptable.” Don’t hold… pic.twitter.com/zKmbIOvqWK — TheStormHasArrived (@TheStormRedux) December 23, 2025 Rudy deserves to have every last cent they stole from him repaid and his life restored because I guess it turns out he was right!

Why does Lindsey Graham so strongly support the War in Ukraine? Perhaps because it’s making him filthy rich! I want to be clear, I am not making the allegation that Lindsey Graham has done anything wrong, but former CIA officer Larry Johnson is. He laid it all out on Stinchfield Tonight.

I actually—there will be news coming out in the next couple of months about how he has profited financially off of money that came out of Ukraine, laundered through Latvia, and made a way into his bank account. And we’re talking significant amounts of money. Right. Department of Justice is looking at it. All right. Those are serious allegations leveled by former CIA officer Larry Johnson. We shall see. We will monitor and bring you updates as we have them. Everyone is innocent until proven guilty, but if this ends up being true people are going to absolutely roast Lindsey Graham on a spit! Didn’t Q say something about that? “They won’t be able to walk down the streets” I think was the Q quote. Is that time coming soon? We shall see.

EU leaders tried to leverage frozen Russian state assets to fund a €210 billion financing package for Ukraine — despite the plan ultimately falling through.
