A Brutal Rundown of CNN and MSNBC’s Biggest Hoaxes Delivered by Carl Higbie [WATCH]

/

Carl Higbie delivered a lengthy broadside against CNN, MSNBC, Politico and other major news organizations, accusing them of misleading Americans across a long list of political, cultural and public-health controversies.

Higbie’s examples ranged from the origins of COVID-19 and the Hunter Biden laptop to immigration, January 6, Donald Trump, crime statistics and media coverage of several viral incidents. Some of the cases he cited were later substantially revised or debunked, while others remain disputed or were characterized by Higbie more broadly than the available evidence supports.

“But here’s a list of things that CNN, MSNBC, and a few other leftist outlets like Politico also lied about, or made up, or misled the American people,” Higbie said.

He began with two of the most prominent disputes of the COVID era.

“You had the COVID lab leak is racist. Ah, turned out that was true. All right, and then the Hunter Biden laptop was Russian disinformation. Nope, that actually was also true,” Higbie said.

The origins of COVID-19 remain unresolved. In 2025, the CIA shifted to assessing that a research-related origin was more likely than natural transmission, but it made that judgment with “low confidence” and said both possibilities remained plausible.

The Hunter Biden laptop controversy developed differently. Federal prosecutors later introduced Hunter Biden’s laptop as evidence at his 2024 gun trial, with an FBI witness describing how investigators verified the device and its contents. Reporting organizations that later obtained copies of the data also authenticated portions of the material, though questions existed about copies circulated outside law enforcement.

Higbie also revisited the debate over gas stoves.

“Joe Biden will never ban gas stoves, and then he banned gas stoves,” he said.

That characterization is too broad.

The Biden administration did not impose a nationwide federal ban on existing gas stoves. The Consumer Product Safety Commission said in 2023 that it was not pursuing such a ban, while some states and municipalities separately adopted restrictions affecting gas appliances in new construction.

Higbie then moved rapidly through a series of high-profile stories that became flashpoints in national politics.

“Oh, you had the hands up, don’t shoot. Look at these four people right there. Yeah, it turned out Michael Brown never did that, and he actually reached for the cop’s gun,” Higbie said.

He also raised the 2020 NASCAR controversy involving Bubba Wallace.

“They said that there was a noose in a NASCAR thing. Turned out that was a choke.”

The FBI ultimately determined that the rope found in Wallace’s assigned garage stall had been there since before Wallace was assigned the stall and therefore was not placed there as a hate crime. NASCAR and the FBI nevertheless continued to describe the rope itself as a noose used to pull the garage door.

Higbie also cited the death of Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick after the January 6 riot.

“Oh, they said the policeman was killed by the January 6 protesters. Total hoax. He actually died of a heart attack a day later,” Higbie said.

The medical examiner ruled that Sicknick died of natural causes after suffering strokes, not a heart attack.

Authorities had initially investigated whether injuries or chemical exposure during the riot contributed to his death.

Another example involved Trump’s comments during an April 2020 COVID briefing.

“They said that Trump told people to drink bleach. He never said that,” Higbie said.

Trump did not tell Americans to “drink bleach.”

He did, however, publicly ask whether disinfectant could be used inside the body “by injection inside or almost a cleaning,” while discussing possible COVID treatments. He later said he had been speaking sarcastically.

Higbie also complained about media portrayals of Trump’s rhetoric, including coverage of his use of the word “bloodbath,” immigration comments, and allegations involving the military.

“There was the Alfa-Bank hoax, the time when Trump said bloodbath about an election and they tried to make it seem like he was talking about a civil war, and then they rushed to demonize him,” Higbie said.

He then turned from individual stories to his broader criticism of the press.

“They think they are the arbiter of anything real in this life,” Higbie said.

His argument was not simply that reporters sometimes make errors, but that major outlets repeatedly adopt narratives hostile to Trump and Republicans before all relevant facts are established.

That criticism also extended to government spending on media subscriptions.

“Remember when Trump axed like $8 million in paid subscriptions to places like Politico? I was dancing, dancing on their financial grave,” Higbie said. “They were just bitter about the fact that we didn’t want to send taxpayer money to subsidize some journalist company that just crapped on Republicans.”

Higbie concluded with an openly hostile assessment of much of the national press.

“I hate the majority of the press, and I am so happy for them.”

Jillian Michaels and Susan Kokinda discussed Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s campaign against Iran, with Kokinda arguing that the administration’s strategy goes far beyond sanctions inside Iran and instead focuses on cutting off the international financial networks that sustain the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and Tehran’s proxy operations.

Michaels said she had heard sharply different assessments of whether economic pressure could significantly weaken Iran’s leadership.

She contrasted skepticism from former intelligence officials with the broader financial strategy outlined by Kokinda and others.

“The way you guys have described Scott Bessent’s strategy is mind-boggling, because I’ve spoken to a lot of people, most from the CIA,” Michaels said.

“VDH, Victor Davis Hanson sees it exactly how you see it, but it’s interesting, because people who are coming from intelligence, like former, say, target experts, and they’re like, Ah, you’re never going to be able to you’re never going to be able to starve the mullahs.”

Michaels said those skeptics view Iran’s leadership as sufficiently ideologically committed to withstand extreme economic hardship.

“They’re just looking at this like they’re ideologically captured; there’s no amount of pain they can’t tolerate,” Michaels said.

“But when people like yourselves explain the strategy, it actually seems like it could work, cuz it’s not really about Iran. Can you outline this for people?”

Kokinda pointed to Bessent’s Operation Economic Outcast, which the Treasury Department formally launched in August as a government-wide campaign targeting Iran and foreign entities that provide the regime with financial support.

Treasury has since sanctioned banking, aviation, digital-asset, and proxy networks tied to Iran.

“Well, one of my favorite moments in the last couple of weeks is when Scott Bessent, who truly is the greatest Treasury Secretary since Alexander Hamilton, we haven’t had that many good ones because most of them have served Wall Street or the financial elites. This guy is serving the Republic,” Kokinda said.

That assessment of Bessent is Kokinda’s opinion. She then focused on the Treasury strategy itself.

“But he did a press conference, and he put the IRGC on notice. This was after he launched Operation Economic Outcast, right? Where we’re drying up their financial flows,” Kokinda said.

Treasury has described the objective in similar operational terms.

When Bessent launched the initiative, he said the department intended to sever Iran’s economic connections around the world and isolate the regime financially.

Subsequent actions have targeted Iranian shadow-banking networks, foreign banks, cryptocurrency infrastructure, airlines and entities accused of assisting Tehran or the IRGC.

Kokinda said Bessent’s reference to offshore assets in the British Virgin Islands was particularly significant.

“And he says to them, We know where your trust funds are in the British Virgin Islands,” Kokinda said.

She argued that the statement was meant to show Iranian officials that Treasury is looking beyond conventional banks and directly at offshore financial structures.

“Now, there are a lot of offshore havens: Hong Kong, the Isle of Man, all of the other Cayman Islands. I don’t think it was random that Scott Bessent said the British Virgin Islands,” Kokinda said.

According to Kokinda, the broader objective is to identify international systems that allow sanctioned governments, organizations and individuals to move money outside normal regulatory channels.

“Because he wanted to make very, very clear we understand how this wild west, unregulated offshore banking system, which was created directly by the City of London, starting in the 1950s, where they set up all these completely unregulated banking operations, especially in the Caribbean, in the Cayman Islands,” Kokinda said.

Her description of the origins and structure of offshore banking represents her interpretation of that history.

Treasury’s public announcements have focused more narrowly on identifying entities, individuals and financial networks accused of facilitating Iranian sanctions evasion.

Kokinda said that distinction is important because, in her view, the administration cannot succeed simply by applying pressure within Iran itself.

“He was letting not just the IRGC know, because the issue of how you end this war is not just defined by inside the borders of Iran,” she said.

Treasury has repeatedly pursued networks based outside Iran.

In recent months, its actions have targeted entities and individuals in China, Hong Kong, Russia and other jurisdictions accused of assisting Iranian weapons procurement, oil sales, transportation and financial activity.

Kokinda argued that cutting those outside connections is the central element of the strategy.

“The way you end this war is you cut off the lifelines that have been going into the IRGC, to this whole radical Islamic operation,” she said.

She then connected her argument to a much broader historical claim.

“Which you can trace back to the founding of the Muslim Brotherhood by the British in the 1920s.”

Bongino Makes a Generous ‘Art of the Deal’ for Dummies Offer to ‘Legitimate Reporters’ [WATCH]

/

Dan Bongino argued that President Donald Trump’s approach to Greenland offers a clear example of the negotiating strategy Trump has described for decades: begin with an expansive demand, create leverage and ultimately secure the strategic objective that mattered most.

Bongino said Trump’s earlier talk about acquiring Greenland should not necessarily be viewed as the final objective. Instead, he described it as an opening position designed to move the boundaries of what could eventually be negotiated.

“Here is the Donald Trump negotiating tactic. How do I know this? Because if you just read the book The Art of the Deal from Trump, who’s been doing deals his entire life in real estate and elsewhere. He talks about it all the time,” Bongino said.

“You got your pens, libs? Stake out a maximalist position. I want Greenland. We’re going to take it over. That’s not his real position. It’s almost never his real position.”

Bongino said the more realistic goal was establishing a larger and lasting American security footprint while keeping Greenland and Denmark involved in the arrangement.

“His real position is probably 50% of that: I would like a bigger footprint in Greenland with the cooperation of people in Greenland and Denmark, as well,” Bongino said.

That interpretation comes as the United States, Denmark and Greenland move to formalize a new security agreement expanding the American military presence on the Arctic island.

Reuters reported September 22 that the agreement calls for two additional U.S. military sites, at Narsarsuaq and Mestersvig, alongside the existing Pituffik Space Base. Denmark and Greenland maintain that sovereignty over Greenland is unchanged.

Bongino then cited commentary from David Brody to explain what he viewed as the mechanics behind the negotiation.

“Here’s David Brody explaining it: The Greenland deal is classic Trump 101. Start with a wild ask, we should own Greenland. Start out there to reset the window on what’s negotiable and what’s not. Get everybody freaking out, which the media always does, and then negotiate towards what you really want.”

Bongino said the desired outcome was straightforward.

“And what did he want? This is more of his Tweet, a bigger, permanent U.S. security footprint in Greenland and a way to keep China and Russia out. Done. That’s the deal.”

Trump has characterized the agreement as providing the United States with permanent control over Greenland’s security and barring American adversaries from establishing military bases or making certain sensitive investments without U.S. approval.

Danish officials have presented the agreement differently, emphasizing that Greenland’s sovereignty and self-determination remain intact and that Arctic security will remain tied to NATO.

The full legal implications of the agreement remain unclear because its final text had not yet been publicly released as of September 22.

Reuters reported that the agreement was scheduled to be finalized during meetings surrounding the United Nations General Assembly.

Bongino nevertheless argued that the progression from Trump publicly discussing ownership of Greenland to obtaining an expanded security arrangement fits the negotiating philosophy he has long associated with the president.

“He notes you can hate the style, but this is how Trump deals: Start huge, create leverage, then land the part you actually came for,” Bongino said.

The Arctic has become increasingly important to U.S. security planning as Washington watches expanding Russian and Chinese activity in the region.

The U.S. Coast Guard said this week that it continues monitoring Chinese research vessels operating near Alaska and other Arctic areas, amid concerns about possible strategic and military applications of their activities.

Bongino also took aim at news organizations that treated Trump’s earlier Greenland rhetoric as evidence that he primarily wanted to purchase or annex the territory.

“Here’s the book, liberals. Please read it. Do we have to buy complimentary copies for everyone?” Bongino said.

He then offered to send copies of Trump’s book to journalists.

“I’ll do that, guys, just so you know. If you are from the New York Times, Washington Post, and let’s throw Reuters in there, if you are a legitimate reporter and you want us to buy you a copy of The Art of the Deal, spread this on the web. We will buy you a copy and send it to you. Is that okay?”

Trump’s Masterplan the DC Swamp Doesn’t Want You to See, Revealed by Glenn Beck [WATCH]

/

Glenn Beck argued that President Donald Trump’s foreign policy moves over the past two years should be viewed as pieces of a single strategy aimed at securing the Western Hemisphere against growing Chinese and Russian influence.

Beck pointed first to Greenland, where the United States, Denmark and Greenland are set to sign a new security agreement expanding the U.S. military presence on the strategically important Arctic island.

Trump has described the agreement as giving Washington permanent security access, while Danish and Greenlandic officials have stressed that Greenland’s sovereignty and right to self-determination remain intact.

“Greenland announced that the United States now has permanent control over the security of Greenland. Denmark has agreed, Greenland has agreed. The three governments sign off on it at the United Nations this week,” Beck said.

He argued that Trump’s interest in Greenland was always primarily strategic rather than territorial.

“He never wanted the deed. He wanted the Arctic. He wanted the shipping lanes open at the top of the world and being able to say to China and Russia, Those are ours,” Beck said.

The agreement is expected to allow an expanded American military footprint and prevent non-NATO adversaries from establishing military bases on Greenland.

Beck then turned to the Panama Canal, arguing that Trump also moved quickly to reduce Chinese influence around another critical trade route.

“A Hong Kong company ran the ports on both ends of the Panama Canal, so China controlled the access between the two between the two oceans,” Beck said.

Panama’s Supreme Court ruled in January that a contract held by Panama Ports Company, a subsidiary of Hong Kong-based CK Hutchison, violated the country’s constitution.

The decision voided the company’s long-running port concession and was widely viewed as a setback for Chinese commercial influence in Panama.

“Then Panama’s own Supreme Court threw the contract out as unconstitutional; Panama seized both ports, Beijing threatened a heavy price, Panama didn’t blink. China’s out,” Beck said.

He also cited Venezuela as another piece of what he views as a larger effort to secure energy supplies in the Americas.

“In Venezuela, in January, American forces took Nicolás Maduro out of Caracas and flew him to New York to face trial. He’s in jail,” Beck said.

Reuters has reported that Maduro was removed from power earlier this year and that U.S. companies are now pursuing new energy deals in Venezuela, including negotiations involving ExxonMobil and other firms.

Beck tied those developments to political changes across South America, arguing that voters in several countries have moved toward governments emphasizing security, market-oriented economics and stronger relations with Washington.

“Argentina elected Milei. Chile just elected Kast over a communist by 16 points. In Bolivia, the socialist party that ran the country for almost 20 years won only two seats.

Ecuador stayed right, Peru went right,” Beck said.

Colombia also shifted right in 2026 with the election of Abelardo De La Espriella, who ran on a law-and-order platform and closer cooperation with the United States.

“Trump didn’t cast those votes; people cast those votes. People vote for what they see working, and for the first time in a generation the model in this hemisphere is coming from Washington instead of Havana or Caracas,” Beck said.

Beck also pointed to NATO defense spending as evidence that Trump has forced allies to assume a greater share of their security burden.

“Europe, for decades, our allies promised 2% of their economy for defense, and most of them missed it. Now NATO members have committed to 5%,” Beck said.

NATO members agreed in 2025 to a long-term target of spending 5% of GDP on defense and defense-related infrastructure by 2035, though several members remain well below that level.

Beck said the final element is economic: redirecting foreign investment toward American manufacturing and reducing dependence on overseas supply chains.

“With trade, Japan, Korea, the Gulf states, Europe, country after country have come to the table to pledge investment in American factories, trillions of dollars,” Beck said.

South Korea, for example, has agreed to a $350 billion U.S. investment package, with its first major project involving a proposed $20 billion Texas power plant.

For Beck, the individual developments should be considered together.

“Put it on the map. The Arctic in the north, the canal in the middle, the oil in the south, friendly governments from Buenos Aires to Bogotá, allies paying their own way, he’s built a fortress here in our own hemisphere,” Beck said.

He characterized the strategy as preparation for a possible period of greater global fragmentation.

“This president is preparing for something dramatic and different. I think he knows the world’s about to change, and the old world is going to go down the crapper,” Beck said.

That conclusion is Beck’s geopolitical interpretation rather than an established administration forecast.

He suggested the international system could eventually break into competing power centers, with the Western Hemisphere becoming more self-sufficient in energy, trade and security.

“I’ve never seen a president do this. You know, presidents inherit, you know, presidents manage the world they inherit. This one redrew it,” Beck said.

He acknowledged that many of the agreements and commitments remain subject to political and legislative changes.

“Now, everything’s on paper, you know, Congresses change, presidents change, Danish parliaments, all of that, they still have to vote, but if we hold what’s been built, the next 100 years are America’s to lose.”

Fake News Networks Get Steamrolled as White House Unleashes Trump TV [WATCH]

/

The White House is bypassing hostile media outlets with the launch of TRUMP TV, a 24/7 stream featuring the Trump administration’s speeches, major moments, videos, and highlights.

The new service was scheduled to go live at 7 p.m. ET Monday.

The launch comes as CNN, Politico, and MSNOW pursue a federal lawsuit over their removal from the White House press operation.

While the outlets argue that their First Amendment rights were violated, the administration is moving forward with its own direct platform.

White House social media accounts spent the day teasing the rollout.

One promotional image showed an old television set flashing the message “Something’s coming. Stay tuned,” while another AI-style clip featured a satellite truck rolling through the White House gates.

A 60-second trailer also promoted President Trump’s 2024 landslide.

The broader message was unmistakable: Americans will still have a way to watch the administration even if legacy media outlets are no longer providing the access or coverage they once did.

The official White House livestream page calls the service “Trump TV: The Essentials Station.”

Its description promises a continuously updated collection of the administration’s most prominent public appearances and video content.

“Watch the Trump Administration’s biggest moments all in one place. Top videos, major remarks, and must-see highlights streaming 24/7 and updated in real time,” the description states.

The first featured video presents Trump’s remarks at Mount Rushmore on July 3, 2026.

Viewers can access the service through the White House livestream page or download the White House application on Apple and Android mobile devices.

WATCH:

The rollout follows Trump’s decision to ban CNN, MSNOW, and Politico from the White House “effective immediately.”

The president acted after years of what he described as “constant ‘reporting’ FAKE NEWS.”

MSNOW is the rebranded MSNBC, which the source said had collapsed in the ratings.

Trump also pointed to Politico’s record $8 million government subscription during the Biden administration and raised questions about the arrangement.

“Seems like corruption to me!” Trump said while discussing the subscription.

He also warned that additional media organizations could face similar consequences.

Reporters from CNN, MSNOW, and Politico appeared at the White House on Saturday, but their hard passes had been deactivated and were confiscated.

The three outlets then filed a joint federal lawsuit on Monday seeking an order that would force the White House to restore their access.

Trump responded by noting that the outlets were demanding access to “your President, ME!”

He also called on them to return the $8 million and stop publishing what he characterized as fiction.

The lawsuit was assigned to U.S. District Judge Tim Kelly, a Trump appointee.

Trump has already said he will appeal if the ruling goes against his administration.

The president argued that outlets that “only write negatively” and rely on unnamed “sources” should not automatically receive a desk inside the White House.

His position puts the dispute over media access squarely alongside the administration’s launch of its own round-the-clock broadcast platform.

WATCH:

TRUMP TV gives the White House a channel for showcasing speeches, official remarks, major events, and selected highlights without depending on the same organizations now fighting to regain access.

The administration’s answer to the courtroom challenge is therefore arriving both through legal resistance and a new media operation.

For viewers, the service offers a centralized stream of administration content that is updated in real time.

For the excluded outlets, the launch is another reminder that the White House is prepared to reach Americans without waiting for legacy media gatekeepers to cooperate.

Grand Jury Finds Nolan Wells’ Death Consistent with Drowning, Rejects Crime and Racial Motive Claims [WATCH]

/

A Jackson County grand jury found that Nolan Wells’ death was consistent with drowning and that no evidence showed a crime or racial motive behind the 18-year-old’s disappearance and death.

The findings followed a review of autopsy evidence, witness testimony, phone data, and investigative materials.

Wells’ body was found July 6 in the water off Horn Island, two days after he vanished during a July 4 boat trip with friends.

Horn Island is 10 miles off Mississippi’s Gulf Coast.

“The Grand Jury finds that the position of, the condition of, time of discovery, and location of Mr. Wells’ body is consistent with drowning,” the report filed Friday in Jackson County stated.

The 23 grand jurors who met last week also found no evidence that a crime caused Wells’ death.

The Mississippi State Medical Examiner’s Office listed Wells’ cause and manner of death as undetermined.

That result echoed an independent autopsy conducted by Dr. Roger Mitchell, the forensic pathologist hired by Wells’ family.

The grand jury received Mitchell’s sworn testimony, a forensic examination of Wells’ cellular phone, and other materials gathered during the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office investigation.

Mitchell’s examination had been hindered because Wells’ body did not have a throat following the official postmortem.

Mitchell received “full access” to examine the college football athlete’s internal neck structures for the grand jury findings.

The report said bruising was found on the back of Wells’ head, but the injury was not fatal.

“There was bruising on the back of Mr. Wells’ head, which was not a fatal injury.

Further, the Grand Jury found no evidence of any fatal injury or organic disease to Mr. Wells’ body,” the report said.

A witness testified under oath that Wells slipped “awkwardly” from the side of a boat at about 3:30 p.m. on July 4.

The witness could not say definitively whether Wells struck his head during the fall.

Wells continued socializing after the incident and did not appear to be injured, according to the witness.

The grand jury found no other evidence explaining the bruising on the back of his head or suspected bruising on his buttocks and shoulder.

“While the Grand Jury found no other evidence to explain the bruising to the back of Mr. Wells’ head, or suspected bruising on his buttocks and shoulder, the Grand Jury cannot say without absolute certainty that this fall caused this bruising,” the report said.

WATCH:

Wells had traveled to Horn Island with friends on July 4.

His friends returned to the mainland after their boat developed a mechanical problem, but Wells chose to remain on the island.

The report said remaining behind was not unusual and called it “common for visitors” during holidays or other crowded days.

Wells’ phone returned to the mainland without him, but the grand jury noted that it was not the only phone to do so without its owner.

Wells purchased alcohol using a fake ID before his death, according to the report.

No other people over the legal drinking age gave alcohol to Wells or his friends on July 4, and investigators found no evidence that Wells took cocaine.

The grand jury also found no evidence supporting public allegations that anyone traveling to or from Horn Island committed a crime leading to Wells’ death.

The report described attacks against his friends, their families, and people traveling aboard the Triton, Palm Beach, and Tideline as “malicious” and “false.”

Wells was not the only black person on Horn Island that day, contrary to another assertion addressed by the report.

The grand jury said false claims had contributed to “misidentification, speculation, and rumors” surrounding the death.

“There is absolutely no evidence to support the allegations that Nolan’s death and disappearance were racially motivated,” District Attorney Angel Myers McIlrath said in a video statement Monday.

She accused outsiders and influencers of trying to exploit the death to divide the community and create chaos.

“Nolan’s friends loved Nolan and Nolan loved them,” McIlrath said.

“Nolan chose to stay on the island that day, and there is not a scintilla of evidence to contradict that.”

WATCH:

Ben Crump, an attorney for the Wells family, criticized the grand jury’s decision.

“This grand jury result leaves us with more questions than answers,” Crump said, adding that Wells’ family would not rest until it knew what happened to him.

Trump Election Fraud Dragnet Sweeps Up Hundreds as Officials Sweat [WATCH]

The Justice Department’s election fraud crackdown has produced more than 200 arrests and indictments involving election crimes and noncitizen voting.

Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon said the total could soon double as federal officials pursue cases across the country.

Dhillon said state and local election officials had previously been warned that they could face charges for allowing fraudulent voting activity.

“I think there are a lot of nervous election officials because I think some of them know that they’ve been looking the other way when this is happening, and we’re catching it all over the country,” she said.

Dhillon also pointed to possible developments involving New Jersey, where officials blamed a computer glitch after thousands of foreigners were registered to vote and about 400 cast ballots.

She said New Jersey was not fully cooperating with the federal inquiry.

“I’m not sure we have the correct numbers from New Jersey. They’re not really cooperating with us, and so we will get to the bottom of what happened there,” Dhillon said.

She added that the state blamed a vendor, but said she believed “there’ll be another side to that story.”

The vendor, IDEMIA, told Just the News in July that it transmits information through the New Jersey motor vehicle system.

The company said the New Jersey Department of State, Division of Elections, is ultimately responsible for validating voter information and determining eligibility.

Dhillon said her office had indicted or convicted 67 people for election-related crimes during the previous several weeks.

The Department of Homeland Security had made more than 160 arrests, according to Dhillon.

“What we care about is that non-citizens who voted in a federal election canceled out the votes of American citizens,” Dhillon said.

She said the Biden DOJ prosecuted 13 people for election-related crimes over four years, while the current Justice Department exceeded that number in one week.

WATCH:

Organizations on the left, including the Brookings Institution, Brennan Center for Justice, and American Immigration Council, have claimed noncitizen voting either does not happen or is extraordinarily rare.

Federal officials are now pointing to their growing stack of cases.

DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin told Fox News that his agency was investigating 1,620 voter fraud cases involving noncitizens and had made 151 arrests.

He also said the department was examining another 300,000 cases using state voter rolls.

“We’re scrubbing them. We’re comparing them to those that are in the country illegally, those that are legal permanent residents, and those that are citizens,” Mullin said.

He argued that every illegal ballot canceled the vote of a citizen who was legally registered.

The DOJ also announced charges against 16 people across seven states involving illegal voting, fraudulent registration, and other election offenses.

Prosecutors alleged that a Venezuelan national and DACA recipient voted nine times between 2008 and 2024, while a Mexican national falsely claimed U.S. citizenship and voted in Idaho.

Gladys Okafor, 56, a Nigerian national living in Massachusetts, was charged with illegally voting in the 2022 midterm elections and 2024 presidential election.

A conviction could bring up to one year in prison, one year of supervised release, a fine reaching $100,000, and possible deportation.

In Los Angeles, three people were charged with paying homeless people to sign petitions using stolen identities belonging to registered voters.

James Brass, 46, Courtney Price, 49, and Jateisha Herron, 33, were charged with conspiracy to commit identity fraud in furtherance of a state felony.

First assistant U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli said the alleged conduct damaged confidence in election systems and promised vigorous investigations.

The indictment followed an undercover investigation by independent journalist James O’Keefe, while Dhillon said the Los Angeles effort had expanded to additional identity theft indictments.

A Census Bureau brief published in August said more than 24,000 noncitizens voted in the 2020 general election, including 4,300 in California and 2,500 in Texas.

It reported “high confidence” that 128 million of 160 million votes were cast by U.S. citizens, leaving 32 million still to be analyzed.

The Justice Department previously sent notices to every state warning that election officials who allow noncitizens to vote could be prosecuted.

It later subpoenaed Nevada’s Democrat election chief for voter information after DHS identified potentially 16,000 foreigners on the rolls, while Nevada reported removing a net 50,130 people.

Communist Network Exposed Behind So Called Spontaneous Austin Protests Against ICE

/

Media reports portrayed a protest against Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Austin, Texas, as a gathering that quickly formed after an ICE agent shot a Venezuelan illegal alien.

A Fox News Digital investigation found that socialist and communist organizations rapidly organized, promoted, and amplified the demonstration.

The shooting occurred Sunday at about 12:56 p.m. Central Time near Anderson Square and Research Boulevard.

Authorities said an ICE officer shot Wilber Rafael Garcés Pérez, a 28-year-old Venezuelan national, during a traffic stop.

Pérez was taken to a local trauma center in serious but stable condition and later placed in federal custody.

Local officials said Austin police were not involved in the shooting, which federal authorities are investigating with assistance from the FBI.

Roughly four hours after the shooting, socialist and communist activists were at the scene.

They waved Mexican flags, circulated the incident through national and Texas social media networks, and broadcast footage of the expanding crowd and confrontations with Austin police.

The organizing network included the Democratic Socialists of America, the Freedom Road Socialist Organization and the Party for Socialism and Liberation.

The latter works closely with nonprofit groups funded by Neville Roy Singham, an American-born communist technology tycoon living in Shanghai.

Congressional lawmakers are investigating the Singham network for allegedly helping create an image of “chaos” in the United States, including through protests against ICE in Minneapolis and at the Delaney Hall detention center in Newark, New Jersey.

BreakThrough News, a communist media platform operated by BreakThrough BT Media, published a Sunday evening report from Texas with the headline, “Austin erupts in protest…” BreakThrough BT Media is a nonprofit funded by Singham.

At about 4:19 p.m., the Party for Socialism and Liberation’s national X account announced the shooting and called on Austin residents to protest.

Its Austin chapter shared a “BREAKING” graphic with the national organization and chapters in Houston, San Antonio, Dallas-Fort Worth and Waco.

By early Monday evening, about 24 hours later, that post had received 5,402 likes, 2,016 reposts and 2,391 shares or sends.

The coordinated distribution undercut the media narrative of an entirely unplanned neighborhood reaction.

At about 4:30 p.m. Sunday, the Austin chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America advertised an “Emergency Demonstration/Vigil” at 8121 Research Boulevard.

The announcement instructed supporters to attend from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.

“Join us at 8121 Research Blvd from 5-8 p.m. for a spontaneous protest and vigil against yet another instance of ICE and police violence,” the post said.

The group later published an updated location and said the demonstration would continue until 7 p.m.

The Freedom Road Socialist Organization and its Austin chapter also distributed material about the shooting.

One graphic declared, “ICE SHOOTS AN UNARMED CIVILIAN,” while another characterized the incident as part of wider “ICE violence and killings.”

Within 24 hours, the Freedom Road post had collected 620 likes, 214 reposts, and 156 shares or sends.

Videos published by the organization showed demonstrators chanting, holding signs, blocking the roadway near the shooting site and lighting fireworks.

Freedom Road openly states that it is building “a new, revolutionary, communist party” and seeking to replace capitalism through socialist revolution.

In July, the organization said it “salutes the Communist Party of China” on the 105th anniversary of its founding.

The Party for Socialism and Liberation similarly describes itself in its manifesto as a “revolutionary socialist” movement that “will open the way to communism and the end of class society.”

Its program portrays police and state institutions as instruments of capitalist rule.

The party works alongside Singham-funded organizations including the People’s Forum, BreakThrough News, CodePink and the ANSWER Coalition.

It also participates with Freedom Road in coalitions and international efforts involving Cuba and Venezuela, according to the communist publication Fight Back! News.

At 5:44 p.m., the party’s national account posted live video of the Austin crowd.

Its national and Austin Instagram accounts paired the video with Rage Against the Machine’s song, “We’ve Got to Take the Power Back.”

At 8:27 p.m., the national account published a statement demanding Pérez’s release and the ICE agent’s arrest.

An identical Instagram post distributed through Texas and national accounts had 10,600 likes, 3,616 reposts and 2,343 shares or sends by early Monday evening.

By about 5 p.m. Monday, organizers issued another call directing activists to Pearsal Detention Center, where local groups claimed ICE agents were holding Pérez.

The message demanded, “WE NEED YOU BOOTS ON THE GROUND…!!!”

Austin officials have requested transparency and an independent review, while federal authorities said the agent’s use of force remains under investigation.

The groups’ own posts, however, document how established socialist and communist networks swiftly turned the shooting into an organized political action.

Scott Bessent Lowers the Boom on Iran with Another Strong Sanctions Move [WATCH]

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the Trump administration is sharply increasing economic pressure on Iran through expanded sanctions authorities targeting aviation, maritime activity, cryptocurrency, gold and international financial institutions accused of helping Tehran move money around the world.

During an exchange with CNBC’s Joe Kernan, Bessent said Treasury had recently received additional authorities that are now being used against the Iranian government.

“I will tell you that we are pressuring them like never before and Treasury’s sanctions authorities were really emboldened after 9/11 and that’s when we were given many of the authorities that we have now,” Bessent said.

He added that Treasury had received five new authorities roughly a month earlier.

“We got five new authorities about a month ago that we’ve implemented against the Iranian regime, including on aviation, maritime, crypto, gold,” Bessent said.

One of the administration’s most aggressive new measures is aimed at preventing Iranian commercial airlines from operating internationally beginning September 23.

“On September 23rd, all the Iranian airlines, all the Iranian airlines will be shut down around the world,” Bessent said.

Bessent explained that the strategy relies on secondary sanctions and access to the U.S. financial system.

Airports, fuel suppliers, ticket sellers and other service providers that continue assisting Iranian carriers could risk being excluded from dollar-based transactions.

Reporting Monday confirmed that the administration is warning foreign companies against providing fuel, landing services or ticketing assistance to Iranian airlines.

“And how do we do that? That if they land, you cannot provide them with fuel, you cannot provide them with landing services, you cannot sell them tickets or you will be knocked out of the dollar system,” Bessent said.

The Treasury secretary said the administration is also targeting financial intermediaries that it believes have helped Iran evade sanctions.

“And what we’re seeing here, Joe is we’ve seen enablers throughout the world. We know who they are, they know who they are, and we are putting a stop to it,” Bessent said.

He then pointed to banks in Egypt, Turkey and Russia that he said had facilitated transactions benefiting Iran.

“So, we’ve had now three banks that we have sanctioned: the second-largest bank in Egypt, the Dubai branch funneled more than $1.8 billion into the regime; they will be closed down; about the 30th largest Turkish bank, same thing, they will be closed down; second largest Russian bank, their external branches doing the same thing, those branches are being closed,” Bessent said.

The administration has already sanctioned Turkey’s Golden Global Yatirim Bankasi, accusing it of helping move Iranian oil revenue and convert funds into cash and gold.

The action is part of a broader campaign designed to disrupt Tehran’s access to international finance.

Kernan then pressed Bessent on China, which remains an important part of Washington’s effort to restrict Iran’s financial and commercial networks.

“But nothing in China, and did you talk about that?” Kernan asked.

Bessent said the issue had been discussed, but indicated that the administration prefers private diplomacy in some cases rather than public confrontation.

“We did. And with many countries, having quiet behind-the-scenes discussions are better than having a public display,” Bessent said.

Bessent has recently met with senior Chinese officials as Washington raises concerns about financial ties between China and Iran.

Reuters reported that Iran and China were among the subjects Bessent planned to address in discussions with his Chinese counterpart, while more recent talks have included broader trade and security concerns.

The latest measures represent an expansion of Treasury’s campaign against Iran beyond conventional banking sanctions.

Earlier this month, Bessent said the administration was examining airlines, maritime companies and digital assets as possible targets as part of its effort to cut Tehran off from international commerce.

Bessent’s comments make clear that the administration is increasingly relying on access to the dollar system as leverage against companies and governments that continue providing financial or logistical support to Iran.

The strategy is designed not only to sanction Iranian entities directly, but also to force foreign businesses to choose between maintaining relationships with Tehran and retaining access to the U.S. financial system.

For Bessent, that pressure campaign is already moving into a more aggressive phase.

“We know who they are, they know who they are, and we are putting a stop to it,” he said.

Mike Steger argued that a sweeping political and economic realignment is taking place across the Western Hemisphere, with President Donald Trump’s administration placing energy abundance, national sovereignty and regional security at the center of a new American-led strategy.

Steger pointed first to the G20 energy meeting held in Houston, where Venezuela participated as an invited country.

Venezuela’s government confirmed that its delegation attended the September 14-16 ministerial gathering, which was formally framed around energy abundance rather than the “energy transition” terminology frequently used at international energy meetings.

“Venezuela’s participation at the G20 summit in Houston may be remembered as the final nail in the coffin, not just of the climate change delusions, but of the entire globalist cult operating in the Western Hemisphere,” Steger said.

“Trump named it the Energy Abundance Summit.”

Steger portrayed the Houston gathering as evidence that the administration is moving international energy discussions toward greater production and lower energy costs.

He also connected that shift to the Trump administration’s broader approach toward Greenland and Arctic security.

“Then he signed a deal with Greenland for total control and without time limits,” Steger said.

Trump announced an agreement involving the United States, Denmark and Greenland that would expand long-term American security access on the island.

Denmark and Greenland have stressed that the arrangement will preserve Greenland’s sovereignty, while Trump has described the agreement as guaranteeing permanent U.S. security access.

Steger argued that those developments are part of a larger strategy extending from the Arctic through Latin America.

“And while Trump was holding his major midterm convention, Rubio was consolidating the entire Western Hemisphere around one clear principle,” Steger said.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio traveled to Colombia, Ecuador and Peru earlier in September for meetings focused in part on counternarcotics cooperation, security and economic ties.

Steger said changes in Latin American politics are increasingly being driven by demands for public safety, economic development and stronger relations with Washington.

“Under the new Trump era, copying this model has become one of the fastest-growing trends in Latin American politics,” Steger said, pointing to El Salvador President Nayib Bukele’s approach to gangs and violent crime as an influence on other governments.

Steger tied that regional political movement to a broader argument about natural resources and economic development.

He said the hemisphere’s oil, natural gas, uranium, lithium, copper, farmland and freshwater reserves make it uniquely positioned to benefit from an energy-intensive growth strategy.

That argument resembles language contained in the Trump administration’s December 2025 National Security Strategy, which says the Western Hemisphere contains strategic resources the United States should develop alongside regional partners.

The document also calls for strengthening supply chains, reducing dependence on outside powers and expanding security and economic partnerships throughout the region.

“So in December of 2025, the Trump administration released its own National Security Strategy, and it said it outright,” Steger said.

“The Western Hemisphere is home to many strategic resources that America should partner with regional allies to develop, to make neighboring countries as well as our own more prosperous.”

The White House has also publicly described the administration’s regional strategy as a “Trump Corollary” to the Monroe Doctrine, saying the United States intends to resist outside powers gaining strategic influence in the hemisphere.

Steger then turned to Brazil, which he characterized as one of the remaining major obstacles to that regional transformation.

“That’s why the case of Brazil, the last remaining globalist holdout in South America, may be the next shoe to drop,” Steger said.

Brazil is approaching an October presidential election in which President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Sen. Flávio Bolsonaro are running closely in recent polling.

A BTG/Nexus survey released September 21 showed Lula at 40% and Bolsonaro at 37% in a first-round scenario, while a hypothetical second round showed 46% for Lula and 45% for Bolsonaro, within the poll’s two-point margin of error.

Steger also focused heavily on Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes and the Banco Master scandal.

“The biggest corruption scandal in decades may bring down the entire Supreme Court and President Lula with them,” Steger said.

That claim goes beyond what has been established. Brazil’s Supreme Court has been dealing with a significant institutional controversy involving Banco Master, former banker Daniel Vorcaro and allegations concerning Moraes.

The court postponed a decision on whether to open an investigation of Moraes after questions arose about his relationship with Vorcaro and a lucrative contract involving the law firm headed by Moraes’ wife. Moraes has denied wrongdoing and has characterized efforts targeting him as politically motivated.

Reuters has reported that the contract involving the firm of Moraes’ wife was worth approximately $24 million.

Other Brazilian reporting has documented allegations involving travel on aircraft associated with Vorcaro and communications between the banker and Moraes.

The Banco Master investigation has also reached political figures on multiple sides of Brazil’s political divide.

Flávio Bolsonaro himself is under investigation over allegations involving transactions connected to Vorcaro, allegations he denies.

Steger nevertheless argued that a Brazilian political shift would represent another major step in what he sees as a broader regional realignment.

“Brazil flips, then the globalist holdouts like Canada and Cuba in the Western Hemisphere are going to be mere speed bumps in Trump’s plan to rename the region the American Hemisphere,” Steger said.

He concluded that developments involving energy policy, Greenland, Latin American security and Brazil should be viewed as connected pieces of the same administration strategy rather than isolated events.

“The choice all countries face is whether they want to live in an American-led world of sovereign countries and free economies, or in a parallel one in which they are influenced by countries on the other side of the world,” Steger said.

For Steger, the direction of travel is already clear.

“It’s one agenda, being executed one country at a time, to the demise of the globalist world order.”
