Rep. Greg Casar thought he had a great gotcha question for Secretary Kennedy. It didn’t work out well. Casar: Have you met with, again, have you met with any of the 1.4 million people who have lost their health insurance just this last year from dropping off of Obamacare. Have you sat down and talked to those folks about the fact they won’t have their health insurance? Kennedy: They’re almost all illegal immigrants. I wonder if Democrats have met with any of the 14 million Americans who lost their private health insurance policies thanks to Obamacare? Democrat Rep. Greg Casar: “Have you met with any of the 1.4 million people who have lost their health insurance just this last year?” RFK Jr.: “They’re almost all illegal immigrants.” BOOMpic.twitter.com/Y8RqjqJmaB — Libs of TikTok (@libsoftiktok) April 17, 2026 The post Almost All the 1.4M People Who Lost Health Insurance Were Here Illegally appeared first on www.independentsentinel.com.

Incredibly biased left-wing, very left-wing ‘journalist’ Christiane Amanpour claims she was a major in the army without ever being in the army. She thinks a press pass is a dog tag, and somehow she became a major. That’s not a joke. Amanpour wrote in a post, “I recall my dog tag in the first Gulf War had the rank of major… the very same rank [as Secretary Hegseth]. Just sayin’.” It’s all in her mind, but don’t worry, Christiane, we will make you the first fake major in the Clown World Army. She is our first fake major in our fake army. Who made her a major? here we have Christiane Amanpour randomly claiming to have been a major in the U.S. military https://t.co/nOOlXQDslD pic.twitter.com/SiRD0wspOq — Jerry Dunleavy IV (@JerryDunleavy) April 17, 2026 Grok said she was not in the army and was not a major. She is a nothing. This is a case of Stolen Valor. Christiane is the golden hack of the left. I don’t really know why Amanpour said it other than that she was dehumanizing Secretary Hegseth. Jerry Dunleavy wrote: I am told Amanpour may have been referencing a press ID she was given during the Gulf War, which listed the fake administrative rank of “major” for access purposes, which is actually more insane, becuz she is comparing that to U.S. troops who actually achieve the rank of major… Amanpour is just being her usual nasty self. On second thought, we don’t want her in Clown World.

Ruben Gallego was a close friend of Eric Swalwell’s. They hung around together, and his claim that he knew nothing of Swalwell’s abuse of women comes into question. That brings us to Rep. Luna. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna has referred Sen. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) to the Senate Ethics Committee due to troubling allegations. And there is purportedly a woman coming forward about Gallego. Reportedly, the Senate is investigating. Rep. Luna on CBS News: “There is a woman that allegedly is coming forward with attorneys, wants to go on record about an incident that occurred between the two of them at the same time, and the event with sexual nature, allegedly.” “I have confirmed with Senator John Thune’s chief of staff, as well as they’re linking us to their ethics that they are investigating, and we are sending all appropriate information directly to them now.” “That’s not just that. There’s also two apparently issues of campaign finance violations.” “Again, look, I am one member of Congress, but I’m not going to be like some of my colleagues that waited forever in a day to bring this information forward. I think that if this is happening, that it needs to be dealt with!” MUST WATCH VIDEO: A nervous looking Sen. Ruben Gallego (D-Arizona) DENIES any involvement or presence in the now infamous video of Eric Swalwell on a bed.

Giuliani (@RudyGiuliani) April 16, 2026 Trafficked Sex? Rep. Luna told Major Garrett that the Senate “has its own trash to take out,” meaning Ruben Gallego. She noted that there was a sexual incident with the two of them and Swalwell. There is a possibility that it could involve people who were trafficked. It is information that must be investigated. Mr. Gallego could be completely innocent or not. Also, there are questions about campaign finance violations. Allegedly, they used campaign cash for Ruben’s wedding. I don’t know what evidence they think they have of any of this. It will have to be investigated, but let’s clean house if it’s true. Let’s also investigate the slush fund congressmen use to pay off women, or whoever, for NDAs, with tax dollars. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) is accusing Sen. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) of misconduct, telling CBS News’ Major Garrett on Thursday that her office has provided Senate Majority Leader Thune’s staff with allegations related to Gallego that are “sexual in nature.” A Gallego spokesperson… pic.twitter.com/bv0XgrANEi — CBS News (@CBSNews) April 17, 2026 Gallego said that he heard Swalwell was “flirty.” Sen.

Last June, Premier Giorgia Meloni’s government authorized the entry of 500,000 foreign workers for the next three-year period, 2026 to 2028. This is an increase over the current three-year period, when it greenlit 450,000 entries. The new quotas were agreed upon during a cabinet meeting. In a press statement from the Prime Minister’s office, the government underlined that they believe these additional migrant workers are “indispensable for the national economic and productive system and not otherwise available.” The Italian government is now poised to approve the next multi-year immigration quota decree, or Decreto Flussi, which will authorize 497,550 new work-visa places for non-EU nationals between 2026 and 2028. A draft seen by national daily La Sicilia allocates 164,850 slots in 2026, 165,850 in 2027, and 166,850 in 2028, split between seasonal employees, long-term hires, highly-qualified staff, and domestic caregivers. Compared with the previous three-year plan, the figures mark an 11 percent increase and would bring to almost one million the number of legal labor entries approved during Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s first term. Unemployment in Italy is 6%. I don’t think they need immigrants. However, they have a population of nearly 59 million, which is shrinking. The EU claims it has to import foreigners to support elderly citizens, and has apparently convinced many of their citizens this is a necessity. She said she wouldn’t do this: Before the election, Giorgia Meloni called importing 500k legal immigrants over three years a “planned invasion,” swearing she’d never do it. She also said she would be a great friend of the U.S. and Israel. Now, she’s signed a decree admitting exactly 500k immigrants into Italy… pic.twitter.com/6gegGNrzfX — Dr. Maalouf ‏ (@realMaalouf) April 17, 2026 Prime Minister Meloni also canceled the defense contract with Israel when it came due.

President Trump told CBS News in a phone interview that Iran has “agreed to everything” and will work with the U.S. to remove its enriched uranium. He insisted that doing so would not involve U.S. ground troops. But when asked who would retrieve it, he would only say “our people.” “No. No troops,” he said. “We’ll go down and get it with them, and then we’ll take it. We’ll be getting it together because by that time, we’ll have an agreement, and there’s no need for fighting when there’s an agreement. Nice, right? That’s better. We would have done it the other way if we had to.” The president said the material would then be brought to the U.S. “Our people, together with the Iranians, are going to work together to go get it. And then we’ll take it to the United States,” he said. The president also said Iran has agreed to stop backing proxy terrorist groups, like Hezbollah and Hamas. When asked when he would be announcing the deal, Mr. Trump said the two sides are meeting this weekend and that the U.S. would continue its blockade “until we get it done.” Although Axios reported that the Trump administration was discussing the possibility of releasing $20 billion in frozen Iranian assets in exchange for its nuclear stockpile, the president denied it: “No, we are not paying 10 cents.” Here Comes Starmer and Macron UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced that the UK will lead a defensive military mission with France in the Strait of Hormuz to ensure it remains open.
