President Trump once again called on Republican Senators to end the filibuster amid ongoing gridlock and partial government shutdown.

The Senate very early Friday morning, after a marathon session, unanimously approved a voice-vote package to fund the Department of Homeland Security, except for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and key parts of Customs and Border Protection.

Democrats flat-out refused to support full funding without gutting immigration raids and deportation operations.

Instead of fighting for the full funding, Thune and the Senate GOP folded in the dead of night, when no one was watching.

The House of Representatives late Friday night passed a short-term DHS funding bill.

The House voted 213-203 to fully fund the Department of Homeland Security for 8 weeks.

However, the bill is likely dead on arrival in the Senate because it won’t get the 60 votes needed to pass the measure.

The SAVE America Act is still stalled in the Senate.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune and others have floated passing the SAVE America Act through reconciliation which only requires 51 votes.

This requires approval from the Senate Parliamentarian and she would immediately slash the SAVE America Act from the reconciliation package because it is not a budgetary item.

The only option is to nuke the filibuster and pass bills with 51 votes in the Senate.

The president once again called on Senators to nuke the filibuster.

Trump said it is time to expose the Republican Senators who stand in the way.

“It is time for the Senate Filibuster to END. Those weak and ineffective Republicans Senators that stand in the way of this should be exposed to the public. The Democrats are CRAZY!” Trump said in a Truth Social post.

Jose Medina-Medina, the Venezuelan illegal alien who shot and killed 18-year-old Loyola University student Sheridan Gorman earlier this month, is unable to read or write and has severe brain damage, according to his attorney.

Not only is he a criminal who was released back onto the street after a prior arrest, but he’s mentally incompetent.

This is the “best and brightest” who Biden and the Left want to flood our country with.

The teen was shot and killed near campus in Chicago, Illinois, over the weekend by the 25-year-old illegal alien who entered the US under the Biden Regime and was later arrested, then released from local custody under Chicago’s sanctuary city policies.

According to Illinois Governor JB Pritzker, whose policies allowed this violent killer to roam free, however, Trump is to blame for Gorman’s death. As The Gateway Pundit reported, Pritzker credited “a failure to have comprehensive immigration reform” and “a failure of the president to follow his own edict to go after the worst of the worst” for the murder.

During a court hearing on Friday, Medina, who is charged with one count of first-degree murder, one count of attempted first-degree murder, one count of aggravated unlawful possession of a weapon, and three counts of aggravated discharge of a firearm, reportedly became “sick off camera” and closed his eyes several times.

His public defender, Julie Koehler, told the court that he grew up in Venezuela and attended school only until he was seven years old. He is completely illiterate.

As a teenager, he was allegedly shot in the head during a 2018 robbery while living in Colombia, and he now has brain damage, stunted development, and memory problems.

He also allegedly contracted tuberculosis in a migrant shelter after he illegally entered the United States, the attorney said.

Kholer is requesting that he remain in detention pending trial in order to evade a detainer and pending arrest from ICE upon his release. She claims that he could be deported to a third country “without the benefit of due process.”

The victim’s family said in a statement that “nothing said in that courtroom” changes the reality they face of losing a young daughter. They further questioned, “How does something like this happen in a place where a young woman should have been safe?” noting, “That is not a political question. It is a human one.”

 She was 18 years old. She was exactly where she was supposed to be—living her life, surrounded by friends, doing something entirely normal. There was nothing reckless, nothing unusual, nothing that should have placed her in danger. And yet, she is gone. That is the reality we are forced to confront. And nothing said in that courtroom changes it.

What we heard today forces a broader question that cannot be ignored: How does something like this happen in a place where a young woman should have been safe?

That is not a political question. It is a human one. Because if we allow ourselves to accept this as inevitable—as something that simply happens—then we are accepting a world where young people cannot safely live their lives in the most ordinary ways. That is a standard no family should be asked to accept.

Today on Stinchfield, we expose one of the biggest deceptions in modern finance. The elites, the media, and the so called experts keep telling you Tesla is just a car company.

That’s the lie.

Because Tesla isn’t battling Ford or GM. It’s going head to head with Silicon Valley power players like Google, Apple, and Microsoft. And in some of the most important arenas of the future, it’s winning.

Think about it.  Tesla is building real world artificial intelligence, not just chatbots. Its full self driving system is collecting billions of miles of data, training AI in ways Big Tech can’t replicate in the physical world.

While Silicon Valley talks about the future, Tesla is deploying it.

Robotics. Autonomous systems. A nationwide energy infrastructure that challenges the grip of global power companies. This is not an automaker. This is a vertically integrated tech empire with its own data, its own hardware, and its own distribution.

And that terrifies the establishment.

Because Tesla doesn’t play by their rules. It doesn’t rely on ad dollars, it doesn’t bow to legacy media, and it doesn’t answer to the same gatekeepers controlling Big Tech.
Which is exactly why they keep trying to box it in as “just a car company.”

Joining me is Tyler Herriage of Vertical Research Advisors.  We break down why Tesla may be the most important technology company in America today. From the race to full self driving cars, to humanoid robots that could replace entire workforces, to an energy grid revolution that puts America back in charge.

This isn’t just innovation. This is American dominance.

So ask yourself this.

Is Tesla the next American tech superpower hiding in plain sight?
Or has Wall Street already missed it because they’re too busy protecting the old guard?
