President Trump abruptly canceled his envoys’ trip to Pakistan for peace talks with Iran.

US special envoys to the Middle East, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, were supposed to travel to Pakistan for round two of peace talks with Iran.

On Saturday, President Trump told Fox News that the trip was scuttled.

Trump told Fox that Iran can call at any time.

“We have all the cards. They can call us anytime they want,” Trump told Fox.

President Trump released a statement on his decision to cancel his envoys’ trip to Pakistan:

I just cancelled the trip of my representatives going is Islamabad, Pakistan, to meet with the Iranians. Too much time wasted on traveling, too much work! Besides which, there is tremendous infighting and confusion within their “leadership.” Nobody knows who is in charge, including them. Also, we have all the cards, they have none! If they want to talk, all they have to do is call!!! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Earlier this month, Vice President JD Vance announced no deal had been reached with Iran after a 21-hour marathon of negotiations.

Vance made the announcement during a press conference in Islamabad a couple of weeks ago.

The Vice President traveled to Pakistan to engage in historic, direct negotiations with Iran after President Trump announced a double-sided ceasefire last week.

“We’ve been at it now for 21 hours, and we’ve had a number of substantive discussions with the Iranians. That’s the good news,” Vance said.

“The bad news is that we have not reached an agreement. And I think that’s bad news for Iran much more than it’s bad news for the United States of America,” he added.

Here is the US’s ‘red line’ list according to Semafor (It is unclear if any points were agreed upon):

– End all uranium enrichment
– Dismantle all major nuclear enrichment facilities

Per a US official, the US and Iran did not reach agreement to all of the following points during talks this weekend (which are considered red lines for the US):

In a shocking new low for crime-plagued Detroit, thieves have destroyed 75 fire hydrants in just two days by stealing the valuable metal nozzles and stems for scrap.

Local officials say the theft spree is actively endangering lives, as firefighters may arrive at a fire scene and find no working hydrant within range.

Executive Fire Commissioner Chuck Simms said, “One hydrant here or there is manageable, but the problem is whoever’s doing this is doing multiple hydrants in a row. So when DFD shows up, they’re not going to have a hydrant within 600 or 900 feet, which puts people’s lives at risk.”

Each stolen hydrant part is worth roughly $600 on the scrap market, meaning the thieves could have pocketed tens of thousands of dollars in just two days while destroying the city’s emergency water supply infrastructure.

Detroit fire officials are now urgently contacting local scrapyards and urging them not to accept fire hydrant parts.

The city is also asking the public for help identifying the suspects, as the thefts have occurred in clusters across multiple neighborhoods.

Commissioner Simms emphasized that this is not a minor vandalism problem; it is a direct threat to public safety.

NEW: In just 48 hours, 75 fire hydrants in Detroit have been destroyed after thieves started stealing the metal nozzles and stems.

Local officials are now needing to tell scrapyards not to accept the stolen fire hydrant parts, which are worth about $600 each.

Firefighters rely on hydrants being spaced roughly every 500–600 feet in residential areas.

The crime-plagued city already struggles with longer response times due to budget and staffing issues.

Criminals have previously targeted everything from copper wiring on power lines and railroad tracks to manhole covers and catalytic converters, but this appears to be a new low in endangering the public for profit.

Detroit has long been among America’s most dangerous cities, with high rates of violent crime, carjackings, and property theft due to soft-on-crime policies and lenient prosecution.

Law enforcement has not yet released suspect descriptions or surveillance footage.

Fr. Larry Huber was a very popular conservative priest in the St. Louis community.

I first met Fr. Huber shortly after he was removed from his parish and placed in a new community after he refused to wear a facemask during the COVID pandemic. Father told me a group of liberal parishioners waged a campaign against him for not buying into the entire Fauci narrative on the Chinese virus that killed millions around the world.

The St. Louis Diocese like many across the country have replaced conservative leadership with more radical members who are products of the former Pope.

For several days this week I call Father Huber hoping to catch him on the phone. But I heard nothing.

Then on Friday I found out why.

Father Humber was involved in a horrible accident in Jefferson County. He was killed instantly.

What a horrible lost for the Catholic Community in Missouri.

Father Huber was also the founder of the Community for Transcendent Men.

Rest in peace, dear Father Huber!

President Donald Trump has declared that the entire 2020 presidential election should be “permanently wiped from the books” if the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) is ultimately convicted of the sweeping federal fraud charges filed against it earlier this week.

Calling the SPLC “one of the greatest political scams in American history,” Trump linked the organization’s alleged scheme directly to the 2020 race.

In a post to Truth Social on Friday, the president wrote:

The Southern Poverty Law Center, one of the greatest political scams in American History, has been charged with FRAUD. This is another Democrat Hoax, along with Act Blue, and many others. If it is true, the 2020 Presidential Election should be permanently wiped from the books and be of no further force or effect! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DJT

On Tuesday, a federal grand jury in Montgomery, Alabama, returned an 11-count indictment charging the SPLC with wire fraud, false statements to a federally insured bank, and conspiracy to commit money laundering.

According to the Department of Justice, between 2014 and 2023, the SPLC secretly funneled more than $3 million in donated funds to individuals associated with violent extremist groups, including the Ku Klux Klan, Aryan Nations, National Socialist Movement, United Klans of America, and the National Alliance.

Prosecutors allege the SPLC paid these informants and insiders to generate and stoke the very extremism the organization publicly claimed to be fighting, all to scare donors into giving more money.

The indictment highlights one particularly damning example, in which a leader of the 2017 Unite the Right protest in Charlottesville allegedly received more than $270,000 over eight years through shell organizations funded by the SPLC.

Prosecutors say an SPLC-paid informant helped coordinate transportation for attendees to the rally, which Biden later used as a key campaign point. He repeatedly cited it as the moment that convinced him to run for president, falsely claiming Trump had referred to “neo-Nazis” as “very fine people.”

“The SPLC is manufacturing racism to justify its existence,” said Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche. “Using donor money to allegedly profit off Klansmen cannot go unchecked. This Department of Justice will hold the SPLC and every other fraudulent organization operating with the same deceptive playbook accountable. No entity is above the law.”

The DOJ stated that a conviction “will result in the forfeiture of financial gains from the alleged illegal activities.”

SPLC chief officer Bryan Fair has claimed the organization was being “politically targeted” for its past use of paid confidential informants to gather intelligence on violent groups.

However, the DOJ and FBI Director Kash Patel, who previously severed the bureau’s relationship with the SPLC, calling it a “partisan smear machine,” explained that the charges are about fraud against donors, not political speech.

The 24-year-old illegal alien from India who attempted to eat a toddler’s face during a heinous random attack in a Texas park on Saturday was reported to ICE under the Biden administration for felony assault but allowed to remain in the country because federal officials decided the crime was not “egregious” enough to warrant visa revocation.

On Saturday, as The Gateway Pundit previously reported, while high on “wax,” the illegal alien, Atharva Vyas, carried out a savage, unprovoked attack on a mother and her three-year-old daughter in a San Antonio park, biting the toddler’s face, ripping out her front teeth, and jamming his thumbs into her eyes in what witnesses described as a scene straight out of a horror movie.

According to a report from the New York Post, Vyas was allegedly under the influence of “wax,” a highly concentrated form of cannabis with one dose equivalent to smoking 15-20 joints.

The toddler, little Amelia Perez; her father, Xavier Estrada; her mother, Gabriella Perez; and her grandfather, Richard Ariaza, were at the park, spending time together as a family and fishing when the attack took place.

Vyas emerged from the woods and charged at Gabriella Perez, grabbing her hair and punching her in the jaw. He then lunged at her three-year-old daughter, Amelia, pinning the toddler to the ground.

Witnesses said he bit the child’s face and mouth, tried to “eat” her face, gouged at her eyes with his thumbs, and ripped out her two front teeth.

Gabriella fought desperately to save her daughter.

“That brute was ravaging my baby!” Gabriella Perez told The Post. “She’s terrified to sleep. She’s lashing out, angry. She doesn’t understand evil like this f–king man. She’ll never be the same again.”

The New York Post reports:

Horrified witnesses surged forward, dragging the attacker off Amelia while Perez screamed for Xavier until he finally heard the commotion and raced to the scene.

Someone called 911.

Two men pulled out guns.

“I was screaming ‘Shoot him! Shoot him,’” remembered Gabriella.

The crowd finally overwhelmed the maniac, beating him until he collapsed, she said.

The sicko attempted to get up, but each time, the crowd subdued him again until San Antonio police officers arrived to find him drifting in and out of consciousness.

Vyas was arrested and booked into the Bexar County Detention Center on charges including injury to a child with intent to cause bodily injury, assault causing bodily injury, and illegal entry from a foreign nation.

“In the emergency room, the adults were all going crazy while Amelia was suffering shock. She sat eerie calm, like a statue, while the nurses and doctors worked on her poor face,” said the mother. “She didn’t make a peep, even though she was in a great deal of pain. It hadn’t hit her yet, what happened.”

The cannibal illegal alien entered the United States from India in August 2023 on an F-1 student visa.

Just three months later, in November 2023, he was arrested for felony assault on the University of Texas campus. The university contacted ICE, but the Biden administration took no action to deport him or revoke his visa, determining the offense did not meet the threshold of “egregious.”

The Trump administration finally revoked Vyas’s F-1 visa in April of last year.

On the day of the latest attack, ICE had already lodged a detainer with San Antonio police requesting he be turned over after facing local charges.

The Department of Homeland Security issued a blistering statement Friday, calling the attack “completely preventable.”

“This barbaric assault against this woman and her 3-year-old child in a park was completely preventable,” said Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis. “The Biden administration NEVER should have released this animal following his arrest for assault.”

Amelia was hospitalized with deep scratches, bite wounds, missing teeth, and severe emotional trauma. Her mother said the little girl is terrified to sleep, lashes out in anger, and clings to her constantly. The family has set up a GoFundMe to cover medical bills, dental work, therapy, and lost wages.
