A Sarasota, Florida, woman, Desiree Doreen Segari, has been sentenced to over a year in prison after calling on social media followers to murder Trump supporters, according to the Middle District of Florida’s US Attorney’s Office.

Segari will now serve 14 months in federal prison for interstate communication of a threat to injure.

Segari previously called for Trump supporters to be shot dead in a video posted to TikTok last August.

 “If we all get our guns and use our Second Amendment right … and you see somebody with a MAGA hat, ‘pew pew’ that’s what we do, that’s the way,” she told followers. 

“Put them back in their basements, make them scared again to be racist, homophobic, and terrible just awful [expletive],” and “MAGA people deserve to be terrified and scared to walk in the streets because they should know that real Americans are gonna f*cking kill them.”

The Middle District of Florida’s US Attorney’s Office announced on Monday,

Tampa, Florida – Desiree Doreen Segari (41, Sarasota) has been sentenced by U.S. District Judge Katheryn Kimball Mizell to 14 months in federal prison for interstate communication of a threat to injure. A federal jury found Segari guilty on January 13, 2026. U.S. Attorney Gregory W. Kehoe made the announcement.

Segari was indicted on September 18, 2025.

According to evidence presented at trial, on August 17, 2025, Segari posted a video on TikTok calling for MAGA supporters to be shot on sight. Segari stated, “so if we all get our guns and use our second amendment right…and you see somebody with a MAGA hat, ‘pew pew’ that’s what we do, that’s the way, it’s the only way.” While saying “pew pew,” Segari used hand gestures mimicking the firing of a gun. She further stated, “Put them back in their basements, make them scared again to be racist, homophobic, and terrible just awful [expletive],” and “MAGA people deserve to be terrified and scared to walk in the streets because they should know that real Americans are gonna [mouths expletive] kill them.” When Segari posted the video, she included a caption: “#seemagapewpewmaga starting a new trend, hope it catches on. Please spread the word. Share this video. Repost it. Use the hashtag all over the internet. Let’s go guys. It’s time to fight back in a potentially effective manner.”

The next day, Segari posted another video on TikTok, in which she stated, “See MAGA pew pew MAGA, see MAGA pew pew MAGA, see MAGA pew pew MAGA so these [expletive] know we ain’t here to play” while again using hand gestures to mimic the firing of a gun. 

This case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. It was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Michael Sinacore.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Segari was indicted in September for the terroristic video and found guilty in March of interstate communication of a threat to injure.

The US Senate on Thursday unanimously approved a resolution to withhold their pay during a government shutdown.

The resolution, adopted by voice vote, was authored by Republican Senator John Kennedy (LA).

“My resolution to stop senators’ pay during government shutdowns cleared a key procedural vote today, moving it one step closer to final passage,” Kennedy said on Wednesday afternoon ahead of the Thursday vote.

“Fair-minded Americans know senators should feel the pain of a shutdown with the American people,” Kennedy said.

Kennedy’s resolution suspends Senators’ pay during partial or full government shutdowns.

“It’s called shared sacrifice,” Kennedy said.

The Senators’ salaries will be held in an escrow account during a government shutdown, and once the shutdown is over, the lawmakers will get their money.

The resolution won’t take effect until the day after the midterm elections, Kennedy said.

The Hill reported:

The Senate on Thursday unanimously approved a resolution sponsored by Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) to suspend senators’ pay during future government shutdowns, a new rule that could give lawmakers in the upper chamber a powerful incentive not to block funding bills ahead of key deadlines.

The Senate adopted the resolution by voice vote. It will go into effect after the November midterm election so it could apply to a potential end-of-year government shutdown, but not if one occurs ahead of the Sept. 30 end of the fiscal year.

The measure directs the secretary of the Senate to withhold all salary payments to senators if a government shutdown occurs. A senator would not lose his or salary as the money would be put in an escrow account. But the money would not be available to lawmakers while the government is shut down.

The resolution defines a shutdown as the lapse in funding for one or more federal agencies or departments — which means a partial government shutdown, such as Congress’s failure to fund the Department of Homeland Security for 76 days earlier this year, would result in senators not getting paid for weeks on end.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) under President Donald Trump’s leadership delivered a refreshing dose of common-sense science Wednesday, declaring that the Andes strain of hantavirus linked to the deadly MV Hondius cruise ship outbreak remains a low public health risk to the American people.

Trump’s CDC is encouraging the roughly 17 American passengers who were aboard the vessel to simply isolate at home, no forced quarantines, no mask mandates, and no economy-crushing lockdowns.

Stat News reported:

Two doctors with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention  said on Wednesday  that the risk to Americans from the deadly hantavirus outbreak remains low, saying the agency is “engaged at every step.”

In a media briefing, they described the agency’s response, which has been criticized by some infectious disease and public health experts as taking a back seat  to the World Health Organization and other groups.

“I want to start by saying hantavirus is a known pathogen,” said David Fitter, the CDC’s incident manager for the hantavirus response. “At this moment, I want to emphasize that the risk to the general public is low. Our top priority is with the passengers who are on the ship and American communities.”

[…]

“CDC activated our emergency response in Atlanta immediately and has more than 100 staff actively working on this response. Operationally, we’ve been engaged at every step,” he said.

Those steps included providing information to American passengers on board the ship traveling from Argentina toward Antarctica and deploying a CDC team to the Canary Islands whose members spoke with each U.S. citizen about potential exposure. Two team members flew back with passengers, some to the Nebraska Biocontainment Unit and Emory University Hospital in Atlanta.

“So far, our response has followed our playbook for swift action across federal, state, and local public health. The systems and partnerships that we’ve built exist precisely for situations like this,” Fitter said. “The work isn’t always visible, sharing information with state and local health departments and coordinating guidance and monitoring. But it never stops. It’s deliberate, it’s coordinated. It’s essential to keep our community safe.”

As The Gateway Pundit has reported in recent days, the hantavirus cluster aboard the Dutch-flagged MV Hondius has claimed at least three lives, with additional cases confirmed across multiple countries.

One U.S. passenger has already tested mildly positive for the Andes strain, and another is showing mild symptoms upon returning stateside.

140 passengers began disembarking in Spain’s Canary Islands, four U.S. states are now monitoring returning travelers with zero symptoms so far, and patient zero appears to be a Dutch birdwatcher who visited a rat-infested landfill in Ushuaia, Argentina, before boarding the Antarctica-bound expedition ship.

Yet instead of hyping hysteria, President Trump’s newly appointed CDC leadership is focusing on targeted monitoring, contact tracing, and voluntary home isolation for exposed Americans, a stark contrast to the Biden-era CDC’s disastrous overreach that destroyed lives, businesses, and children’s education during the COVID debacle.

Indigenous groups win legal challenge against referendum – for now.

A liberal judge in Alberta dealt a blow to Alberta’s separatists by ruling that they can’t proceed with a petition to force a vote on a separation from Canada.

The reason stated is that the government ‘failed to meet its obligation to consult with Indigenous people’.

BREAKING: A liberal-appointed judge just blocked the democratic will of 300,000+ Albertans who signed through the Citizen Initiative Act process to put Independence on the Oct. 19 ballot.

Bloomberg reported:

“The decision from the Court of King’s Bench of Alberta is a major setback for a group seeking independence for Alberta, a western Canadian province that holds most of the country’s known oil reserves and exports millions of barrels a day of crude to the US.

A pro-independence group known as Stay Free Alberta submitted a petition earlier this month, claiming more than 301,000 signatures in favor of a referendum to break away from Canada. But the judge in the case ruled that the province’s chief electoral officer made an error in law by allowing the separatists’ petition to go forward.”

BREAKING: Danielle Smith says the court decision blocking independence is “incorrect & undemocratic” and Alberta will appeal.

Reacting to the ruling, the Alberta provincial government announced it plans to appeal the decision by the Alberta Court of King’s Bench justice.

CBC reported:

“In two decisions issued Wednesday, Justice Shaina Leonard found that Elections Alberta’s chief electoral officer Gordon McClure made an error in law to approve the second citizen initiative petition and failed to consider an earlier court decision that said separation would violate Indigenous people’s treaty rights. Leonard’s conclusion says there was an error of law, ‘rendering the [chief electoral officer]’s decision unreasonable’.

At an unrelated news conference, Premier Danielle Smith spoke about her government’s plans to appeal Leonard’s decision.

‘We think that today’s decision by the court will deny opportunity to well over 300,000 Albertans to have their petition verified by Elections Alberta’, Smith said Wednesday afternoon. ‘We think that this decision is incorrect in law and anti-democratic, and we will be appealing it as a result. “Our cabinet and caucus will, of course, be meeting in the next couple of days to discuss the full context and make some decisions after we’ve had a chance to talk it through’.”

Macomb County Clerk Anthony G. Forlini is exposing what Michigan Secretary of State and Democrat gubernatorial candidate Jocelyn Benson desperately wants to hide…

Non-citizens on her corrupt voter rolls.

While Michigan’s Secretary of State continues gaslighting the public with claims of “no evidence” of non-citizen voting, Forlini’s office just dropped more damning numbers proving the system is wide open to abuse.

Every day, more proof is revealed about illegal aliens & non-citizens on Michigan’s voter rolls @JocelynBenson lies as easily as the rest of us breathe air.

Literally every comment on her X posts are filled w/ people blaming her for corrupting Michigan’s voter rolls. pic.twitter.com/ZAdbwK9AKG

According to Macomb County Clerk Anthony Forlini’s May 13th press release, in the first quarter of 2026 alone, 198 non-U.S. citizens were summoned for jury duty and forced to self-report with green cards and other proof that they are not American citizens and ineligible to serve. Of those 198, 11 had been registered to vote in Michigan’s Qualified Voter File (QVF) at some point — and a shocking seven remain listed as ACTIVE right now.

On April 28, 2026, Forlini’s office handed this explosive data over to the Michigan Bureau of Elections.

This follows Forlini’s earlier January 2026 bombshell, where his team identified 239 non-citizens in Macomb jury pools over just four months — with 14 registered to vote, 10 still on the rolls, four who actually voted, and one who voted multiple times. The pattern is crystal clear: this is not a glitch — it’s systemic failure under Benson’s watch.

Forlini explained that he and a group of supervisors “became alarmed by the number of non-citizens asking to be dismissed from jury duty” during a meeting convened to address low juror turnout. “Approximately 40% of those who are sent notices for jury duty actually are qualified and show up,” Forlini explained. “In trying to come up with a solution, we came upon the problem of an unreasonable number of non-citizens who present their green card as an excuse to be dismissed,” he said.

Clerk Forlini, who is currently the Republican candidate for Michigan Secretary of State, called it like it is:

“It is unconscionable that this problem continues,” said Clerk Forlini. “To bring greater transparency to this issue, our office will begin posting a running tally on our website so the public can remain informed, and legislators can better understand the scope of the problem and craft reforms to prevent it from continuing.”

The Jury Pool Scandal Is Just the Tip of the Iceberg

Forlini explained the root cause:

“The jury pool is generated using the Secretary of State’s driver’s license database, which currently includes non-U.S. citizens who are ineligible for jury duty. Our staff spends a considerable amount of time verifying citizenship status for prospective jurors. There is also the possibility that individuals may inadvertently be included in the Qualified Voter File. Michigan residents deserve confidence that only eligible citizens are participating in these critical civic duties.”

Under Michigan law, non-citizens are prohibited from serving on juries and voting. Yet Benson’s broken system keeps pumping them in.

And it gets far worse.

Just yesterday, Gateway Pundit dropped an EXCLUSIVE bombshell: Six non-citizens from the DHS “Worst of the Worst Criminal Aliens” list are registered voters in Michigan — with at least two casting ballots in multiple elections. Many remain ACTIVE on the QVF even after being deported back to their home countries.

EXCLUSIVE: Stunning Report — 6 Non-Citizens on DHS “Worst of the Worst Criminal Aliens” List Are Registered Voters in Michigan — 2 Voted in Multiple Elections

These are convicted rapists, gang members, stalkers, and violent criminals — not “dreamers” — illegally on Michigan’s voter rolls while Jocelyn Benson fights the DOJ to keep the full records hidden, citing "privacy" concerns.

Jocelyn Benson's SOS office and Bureau of Elections has created a voter roll so corrupt that criminal illegal aliens can register, vote, get deported… and still stay active for future elections.

Clerks like Anthony Forlini are doing the job Benson refuses to do. His leadership — cross-checking, public tallies, and refusing to sweep it under the rug — is what real election integrity looks like.

Gateway Pundit will continue hammering this story, as we hope more counties will follow Forlini’s example, and as the pressure builds on Benson and Dana Nessel to finally clean up this mess.

Michigan deserves secure elections and fair juries — not open borders that bring illegal aliens into Michigan who are showing up on jury pool assignments for US citizens only and registering to vote and voting in our elections.
