President Trump has an ace up in his sleeve as Democrats push the federal government toward a shutdown.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, the US Senate on Friday rejected two measures to fund the government as a shutdown loomed. Both measures needed 60 votes to pass.
The Senate rejected a Trump-backed House-passed stopgap bill 44-48 and blocked a Democrat version 47-45. The Trump-backed stopgap bill would have funded the government until November 21.
Following the vote, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries blamed Republicans and Trump for the looming shutdown.
They also demanded a meeting with Trump, who told them to pound sand.
Now, a twist emerges. If the Democrats succeed in their obstruction, the Trump Adminstration will likely start firing federal employees working on any program not funded by another law.
Once the shutdown ends and funding is reinstated, agencies across the federal goverment will only keep the bare minimum number employees to operate.
In other words, America will be getting a much-needed downsizing of government thanks to mass layoffs.
The memo from the White House Office of Management and Budget directs agencies to consider firing employees working on any program that is not funded by another law, such as Republicans’ One Big Beautiful Bill Act enacted in July, and which does not align with the president’s priorities.
Once government funding is reinstated after a shutdown, agencies should revise their plans to keep only the smallest number of employees necessary to legally operate.
Leftist Gun Club Displays Flyer at Georgetown University Using Violent Rhetoric Mirroring Charlie Kirk’s Killer: ‘Hey fascist! Catch!’
September 25, 2025
“Hey fascist! Catch!” says a red flyer from the John Brown Gun Club posted on Georgetown’s campus.
The phrase is a nod to the same slogan which was allegedly written on a shell casing by Tyler Robinson, who stands accused of murdering Kirk at a Turning Point USA event at Utah Valley University.
“The only political group that celebrates when Nazis die,” the advertisement says.
It is adorned with a QR code linking to a page that says, “We’re building a community that’s done with ceremonial resistance and strongly worded letters. If you want to make a real change in your community, let us know below.”
Andrew Kolvet, TPUSA Spokesman and Executive Producer of The Charlie Kirk Show, shared a picture of the flyer on X.
Education Secretary Linda McMahon responded to the disturbing discovery saying, “I am aware of the appalling posters that were displayed on Georgetown’s campus today.”
“At a moment like this, Georgetown has to determine what it stands for as an institution. ED officials have spoken to Georgetown administrators, who made the decision to remove the flyers. Campus police are investigating the incident and will deploy resources to protect students as necessary.”
“Allowing violent rhetoric to fester on our nation’s campuses without consequences is dangerous. It must be condemned by institutional leaders.”
“I am grateful to those who spoke out against this and made noise about the posters on campus – you made a difference. There is power in speaking up to reveal these hateful ideologies that have incited deadly violence. Keep fighting for good!”

Shooter Tyler Robinson and his transgender partner, Lance Twiggs, are tied to Armed Queers SLC, which deleted its social media accounts immediately after the killing. Federal investigators are also probing Benjamin Song, the ex-Marine accused of leading the July ICE detention center attack, who connected the Elm Fork John Brown Gun Club to both Armed Queers SLC and broader Antifa networks. Evidence of joint workshops, cross-state coordination, and BLM collaborations underscores how these radical factions trained, organized, and operated together.
Federal investigators expanded their probe beyond Tyler Robinson and Lance Twiggs to examine Armed Queers Salt Lake City (AQSLC), a group that promoted “queer resistance” events. On September 10, 2025, the day Charlie Kirk was assassinated, AQSLC deleted its Instagram account, erasing firearms training content. One archived clip showed a member declaring: “If we’re terrorists, we’re proud terrorists.”
Investigators also uncovered that AQSLC co-hosted workshops with the Elm Fork John Brown Gun Club (EFJBGC), a radical anti-police organization in Texas, with joint events advertised in posts dating back to 2023.
Will Jim Comey’s Son-in-Law in the DOJ Try to Prevent Comey from Being Arrested?
September 25, 2025
Is Jim Comey’s Son-in-Law in the DOJ Trying to Prevent Comey from Being Arrested?
Many people knew that Jim Comey had a daughter in the DOJ who was recently fired, but very few know that he also has a son-in-law in the DOJ.
We reported previously that Jim Comey’s son-in-law, Troy Edwards, was a prosecutor on the Oath Keepers Jan 6 trial where Biden’s corrupt DOJ claimed based on bogus evidence that the Oath Keepers intended to commit an insurrection on Jan 6.
Federal prosecutor Troy Edwards said that by responding to Rhodes’ call to action following the 2020 election, the defendants accepted an “invitation to sedition”.
But defense lawyer Angela Halim argued that there was no concrete plan to disrupt proceedings and that Oath Keepers were in Washington that day to provide security, not to stop the government from carrying out its duties.
The problem with Edwards prosecuting Jan 6ers was that he had a material conflict of interest. Troy Edwards is the son-in-law of James Comey who hates President Trump and the Jan 6ers and was involved in the Russia collusion attempted coup. Edwards should have recused himself as a result but he obviously didn’t.
When it was reported that prosecutors of Jan 6 cases were let go by the DOJ we reported that Edwards was likely included with this group, but this is not the case.
As of early March this year Comey’s son-in-law, Troy Edwards, was still at the DOJ and was part of the prosecution in the huge case surrounding Abbey Gate.
The DOJ released this statement in early March this year about a terrorist who was captured related to this event ):
“This evil ISIS-K terrorist orchestrated the brutal murder of 13 heroic service members,” said Attorney General Pamela Bondi. “Under President Trump’s strong leadership on the world stage, this Department of Justice will ensure that terrorists like Mohammad Sharifullah have no safe haven, no second chances, and no worse enemy than the United States of America.”
“The lethal attack that killed 13 American service members and Afghan civilians during the U.S. troop withdrawal from Afghanistan was an act of terrorism,” said FBI Director Kash Patel. “ISIS-K brazenly claimed responsibility for the carnage. Now thanks to the assistance of the FBI, Department of Justice, and the CIA, we have secured Sharifullah’s apprehension and transport to the U.S. to face American justice. The FBI will never forget the loss of these American heroes, we will continue to hunt down those who viciously murdered our warriors, we will find all responsible and bring them to justice.”
“The charges announced today carry an unmistakable message: the commitment of the United States to hold accountable all who facilitate and carry out acts of terror against us will never waver,” said U.S. Attorney Erik S Siebert for the Eastern District of Virginia. “Our message to those who have been impacted by these horrific crimes is that you are not forgotten. We will continue to pursue justice no matter how long or how far it takes us.”
On Aug. 26, 2021, American and other Coalition military forces were conducting an evacuation operation at Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul, Afghanistan. Abbey Gate was the main entry point for the operation. Thousands of civilians were at Abbey Gate for evacuation.
At approximately 5:36 p.m., ISIS-K member Abdul Rahman al-Logari detonated a body-worn suicide bomb at Abbey Gate, killing 13 U.S. military service members and approximately 160 civilians….
…Assistant U.S. Attorneys Michael P. Ben’Ary and Troy A. Edwards, Jr., for the Eastern District of Virginia and Trial Attorneys Alicia Cook, Charles Kovats, and Ryan White for the Department of Justice’s National Security Division are prosecuting the case.
What isn’t shared in this press release is that it was reported that those in charge at Abbey Gate on the day of the terrorist attack told all to stand down and not prevent the truck from approaching. Some believe that this would have prevented the death of American soldiers and others on that day.
If you know the real story about how the terrorist attack at the Abbey Gate went down, then you know that attack was launched by people within our own government.
There’s a reason the sniper team with the bomber in sight was not given permission to fire.

Yesterday it was reported across the Internet that James Comey was going to be arrested for his crimes related to the attempted coup of the Trump Administration. This effort began during the Obama Administration and Jim Comey, then Head of the FBI, was in the middle of it.
Later in the day it was reported that prosecutors in the Eastern District of Virginia provided a memo to the new US Attorney there regarding why charges should not be brought.
Two sources familiar with the matter tell me prosecutors in the EDVA US attorney‘s office presented newly sworn US attorney Lindsey Halligan with a memo explaining why charges should not be brought against James Comey, because there isn’t enough evidence to establish probable cause a crime was committed, let alone enough to convince a jury to convict him.
Justice Department guidelines say a case should not be brought unless prosecutors believe it’s more likely than not that they can win a conviction beyond a reasonable doubt.
This detail was first reported by ABC News. EDVA declined to comment.
Two sources familiar with the matter tell me prosecutors in the EDVA US attorney‘s office presented newly sworn US attorney Lindsey Halligan with a memo explaining why charges should not be brought against James Comey, because there isn’t enough evidence to establish probable…
Is Jim Comey’s son-in-law one of the prosecutors behind this memo? Is he connected in any way? Why has the DOJ allowed Comey’s son-in-law remain at the DOJ? Isn’t he conflicted in all things due to his relationship with his father-in-law who was fired from the top spot at the FBI and who is finally reportedly soon to be arrested?
Someone please let Pam Bondi, Kash Patel and the new US Attorney in the Eastern District, Lindsey Halligan, know that there is a mole in their midst and it’s Jim Comey’s son-in-law.
Senate Leader John Thune ‘Very Concerned’ About Trump’s Comments on Autism — Urges People to Trust The ‘Experts’ (VIDEO)
September 25, 2025
Senate Majority Leader John Thune has said he is “very concerned” about President Trump’s recent comments on a potential link between autism and Tylenol use during pregnancy.
On Monday evening, President Trump said that the Department of Health and Human Services had discovered a link between the two things and that women should “limit Tylenol use during pregnancy unless medically necessary.”
“It’s turning out that we understood a lot more than a lot of people who studied autism,” Trump said of the scientific establishment.
The comments predictably sent the scientific and media elites into meltdown, who continue to insist that we should all just “trust the experts.”
BREAKING: President Trump just announced a link between TYLENOL and AUTISM — especially when taken during pregnancy
FDA is now recommending pregnant women don’t take Tylenol except in cases of extremely high fevers
During an interview with CNN’s Dana Bash, Thune was asked about Trump’s remarks.
“How worried are you, sir, that RFK Jr. and the president will actually, with what they’ve said, adversely impact the health of American women and their babies?” Bash asked.
He responded:
I’m obviously very concerned about that. I am a father and a grandfather and just have, as of about seven months ago, a newborn grandson.
So, obviously pregnant moms is something I have a very high level of interest in, and I do — I agree, I think that science ought to guide these discussions, these conversations, and our decision making around our health.
There are studies out there that they reference. But again, I think there are an awful lot of people in the medical community who come to a different conclusion about the use of Tylenol.
And so, I think that — obviously my view is we ought to be very guarded in making broad assertions and make sure that they are well grounded in science and medicine, and where we’re taking the consultation advice of experts in the field and ensuring that these things are all well documented.
ICE Shooting: Left Wing Violence Organized on Social Media Supported by Mainstream Media
September 25, 2025

The leftists strike again, shooting up an ICE facility while the media narrative of the “dangerous right-wing Christian conservative” slips further from reality.
On September 24, a gunman opened fire from a rooftop on the Dallas Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) field office, killing one detainee and critically wounding two others before taking his own life.
The shooter, identified as 29-year-old Joshua Jahn, left behind an unused bullet inscribed with “ANTI-ICE,” pointing clearly to an ideological motive.
This was not the first threat against the Dallas facility. Just last month, Bratton Dean Wilkinson was arrested after claiming to have a bomb in his backpack and showing what he called a detonator.
He was charged with making terroristic threats. The Dallas shooting also marked the third attack on a Department of Homeland Security facility in Texas this year.
The attack followed the September 10 assassination of outspoken Christian Charlie Kirk, another act linked to left-wing extremism.
President Trump and administration officials squarely blamed “Radical Left Democrats” for inciting anti-ICE hatred.
Trump recently designated Antifa a terrorist organization and vowed to issue an executive order to dismantle domestic terrorism networks.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem confirmed the attack targeted ICE, while FBI officials described it as “targeted violence.”
Noem condemned the shooting, calling it “a vile attack motivated by hatred for ICE,” and said her prayers were with the victims’ families and the men and women of the agency.
She blamed anti-ICE rhetoric in politics and the media for fueling violence, stressing that DHS had warned for months that such language could lead to bloodshed. “This shooting must serve as a wake-up call to the far-left that their rhetoric about ICE has consequences,” she said.
Noem pointed to repeated comparisons of ICE officers to the Nazi Gestapo, secret police, and slave patrols, warning that such language endangers lives.
She emphasized that ICE agents are “fathers and mothers, sons and daughters” who work daily to keep communities safe and, like anyone else, want to return home to their families. She concluded that the violence and dehumanization of officers who are simply enforcing the law must end.
Much of the anti-ICE rhetoric is fueled by mainstream media, which have called ICE “Gestapo” and often frame deportation arrests as mistakes even when the facts prove they were justified.
Some outlets have even claimed that deportees are U.S. citizens, which is categorically false.
This hatred is then amplified on TikTok and other social media platforms, where open calls to violence are allowed to remain, while statements like “there are only two genders” can get someone banned for so-called “microaggressions,” “word violence,” or some other made-up term.
A new report from Narravance, Escalating Anti-ICE Rhetoric and Real-World Threat Convergence, warns that this online propaganda is increasingly translating into real-world violence against federal law enforcement.
The analysis found a 700% spike in assaults on officers and a rise in ambush-style attacks on ICE facilities since early 2025.
The report highlights activist websites that publish ICE agents’ personal data, sometimes using facial recognition tools, and viral TikTok trends like #CuteWinterBoots that disguise calls for flash mob-style disruptions at ICE locations.
It cites the violent protests in Los Angeles and the July 4 ambush on a Texas detention center, where 10 armed suspects attacked and wounded an officer, as examples of digital activism escalating into physical violence.
Narravance concludes that online outrage is now a frequent precursor to physical attacks on ICE. TikTok has become a major platform for this incitement, with users openly posting instructions to kill agents.
One user, belal_donq, uploaded a video urging followers to “shoot at ICE agents on sight,” claiming they arrived in masks and unmarked vehicles and insisting, “You have every right to shoot at them” and “You might as well shoot them on sight and have your day in court.” The video was only taken down after Fox News contacted the user.
Coordinated messaging campaigns have also appeared across TikTok, with large creators releasing nearly identical anti-ICE scripts such as, “Being undocumented is like jaywalking,” while pressuring others by saying, “If influencers don’t speak up… you’re a bad person.” Some campaigns, like the #CuteWinterBoots trend, disguised calls for flash mob-style disruptions around ICE facilities as fashion content.
Beyond TikTok, activist-run websites have been doxing Ice agents, publishing their personal data, sometimes enhanced with facial recognition tools and crowd-sourced imagery. A Colombian influencer, Tatiana Martinez, became notorious for doxxing ICE agents’ live locations on her TikTok account before being arrested by ICE during a livestream.
Townhall reports that left-wing groups are paying social media influencers to spread coordinated anti-ICE propaganda, particularly targeting young audiences.
Some influencers were even offered money to join protests like the “No Kings” demonstrations, where they pushed messages portraying undocumented immigration as harmless while vilifying ICE. Many posts used identical scripts, pointing to centralized coordination.
Links have been found between these social media campaigns, violent protests, and NGOs. Organizations such as the Southern Poverty Law Center, ACLU, the American Humanist Association, and Activate America have all played a role in perpetuating this violence.
Senator Josh Hawley has launched an investigation, demanding records from the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights to uncover funding and planning behind the demonstrations.
He warned of potential criminal referrals if the groups fail to comply, emphasizing that the unrest appeared organized rather than spontaneous.
