Now that Stephen Colbert is finally off the air, we will have time to focus on one of the other late-night mental cases, Jimmy Kimmel.

Kimmel is in the news today because according to reports on social media, Kimmel’s sister-in-law bullied a neighborhood grocery store in California for selling cookies that had ‘Vote Pratt’ written on them with icing.

What is wrong with this family?

Who loses their mind over cookies with a non-offensive political message written on them?

Can you even imagine being triggered over this?

Outrage as Jimmy Kimmel’s sister-in-law accused of threatening LA bakery over ‘Vote Pratt’ cookies

Los Angeles residents and business owners are fuming over claims that the sister-in-law of lefty late-night host Jimmy Kimmel bullied a longtime grocer for selling pro-Spencer Pratt cookies.

Carly Kimmel, Jimmy’s sister-in-law, was accused in a viral social media post of complaining about the Pratt-themed sweets sold at Vicente Foods, a 78-year-old grocery store in Brentwood.

The popular LA fashion and lifestyle boutique Kitson — which counts stars Paris Hilton, Kate Beckinsale, Angelina Jolie and Janet Jackson among its clientele — said that it “spoke to a reliable source” who confirmed the complaint came from Carly.

It also posted photos of the cookies, as well an image of Carly’s own Instagram account.

“Attacking a small business seems to run in the family,” the post read. “It’s worth noting that the last two cases involving bakeries and freedom of speech ended with the bakeries winning in the Supreme Court. Go on Carly’s Instagram and tell her how you feel.”

Carly is the wife of the late-night host’s brother, Jonathan, who worked on Jimmy Kimmel’s show for years.

Who does this?

President Trump invited the family of Sheridan Gorman, the Loyola University freshman who was murdered by an illegal alien in Chicago earlier this year, to speak at his Suffern, New York, rally on Friday about their tragic loss. 

Gorman’s mother and father shared the stage with her sister and another young woman, both of whom were holding pictures of Sheridan Gorman. Both parents questioned how local leaders could let this happen to their young daughter and why the fight to protect American citizens “belongs to only one party.”

The 18-year-old girl was shot and killed near campus in Chicago, Illinois,  by a 25-year-old illegal alien who entered the US under the Biden Regime, was later arrested, and then released from local custody under Chicago’s sanctuary city policies. The masked illegal approached a group of students walking in Rogers Park and opened fire with his gun, killing Gorman.

“She was gunned down by an illegal alien monster in cold blood,” Trump told the crowd at Rockland Community College.

“This savage animal, who stole Sheridan’s life, entered illegally from Venezuela and was released into our country by Crooked Joe Biden, and that whole Biden administration of thieves and criminals. He was then arrested and released again by Dumocrat Governor JP Pritzker, a terrible governor, has no idea what’s going on in the sanctuary city of Chicago. Sanctuary cities protect criminals. They’re a sanctuary for criminals, not for people like you, like us.”

Breaking into tears, Jessica Gorman, the mother of the slain teen, thanked President Trump and lawmakers for fighting to protect American citizens from the illegal alien thugs terrorizing American communities, then eviscerated the leadership in Chicago for giving refuge to Sheridan’s murderer.

“Mother’s Day was just two weeks ago. For most mothers, it meant flowers and cards and phone calls, or children coming home. For me, it was heartache and tears because on March 19, my beautiful daughter, Sheridan Grace Gorman, was murdered in cold blood,” Jessica told the crowd, fighting through tears.

Her daughter “was walking on a pier in Chicago with her friends, just a few blocks from her campus. They were hoping to see the northern lights over the Chicago City night line,” she said.

“Her life was stolen by a man who should have never been in this country, a man who should have never been set free in that community. And every step, the system had a chance to stop him, and at every step it failed. And my daughter paid for those failures with her life,” Jessica continued before calling for Americans to take action and “support leaders and policies that protect your child and mine.”

“No mother should ever have to wonder if her child called out for her in her final moments. No mother should ever have to imagine her baby lying alone and bleeding on the cold pavement, and no family should ever have to bury a child because public officials failed to put innocent American lives first,” she said.

Sheridan’s father, Tom Gorman, also shared the heartbreaking story of what the illegal alien monster did to his family. “I’m a husband who had to hold his wife on Mother’s Day when she asked the question no mother should ever have to ask. Through tears, Jess looked at Maddie and me and asked, ‘Am I still the mother of two?’”

“No mother should ever have to ask that question, and no father should ever have to answer it,” he continued, slamming the failed policies that left their daughter’s life  in the hands of “someone who should not have been here and should not be free.”

“Protecting our people is not politics. It is the first responsibility of government,” he said, pleading with the crowd to choose “leaders who enforce our laws, secure our borders, cooperate with law enforcement, and put innocent American families first.”

“We will spend the rest of our lives fighting so that someone else’s daughter can,” Tom said in closing.

Following the speeches from the Gorman family, Trump condemned New York’s new budget plan that will “obstruct federal immigration enforcement and keep this a deadly sanctuary state,” he said. The President added that his choice for New York Governor, Bruce Blakeman, will reverse the lawless policy “very quickly.”

He then vowed to “abolish deadly sanctuary cities in New York and across the nation once and for all.”

Transcript:

Jessica Gorman: Thank you, Mr. President. I have to say, you are just so funny. My family has laughed more, smiled more, than we have in the past hour, than we have since march 19. It’s been such a gift. Thank you.

Hi, sorry. We prepared some words, but firstly I just want to thank President Trump and Michael Lawler and all of the legislators that believe and protect and are champions for our American children. My name is Jessica Gorman, and Mother’s Day was just two weeks ago. For most mothers, it meant flowers and cards and phone calls, or children coming home. For me, it was heartache and tears because on march 19, my beautiful daughter, Sheridan Grace Gorman, was murdered in cold blood.

She was walking on a pier in Chicago with her friends, just a few blocks from her campus. They were hoping to see the northern lights over the Chicago City night line. Sheridan never got to see those lights. Instead, her life was stolen by a man who should have never been in this country, a man who should have never been set free in that community. And every step, the system had a chance to stop him, and at every step it failed. And my daughter paid for those failures with her life.

No mother should ever have to wonder if her child called out for her in her final moments. No mother should ever have to imagine her baby lying alone and bleeding on the cold pavement, and no family should ever have to bury a child because public officials failed to put innocent American lives first.

To the mothers of New York, to the mothers of Chicago, Rockland County, and our own beloved Westchester County, and all across this nation, who have reached out, who have cried with us and prayed for us and stood with us, I just want to thank you from the bottom of every piece of my broken heart. I see you, I hear you, and I need you to please hear me. Remember Sheridan’s face, remember her light, remember the life she should have lived. And then stand with us, not only in grief but in action.

Forget political party, vote with your heart, support leaders like President Trump, like Michael Lawler. Please, please support leaders and policies that protect your child and mine because a city and a state or a country that does not protect its children has lost its way, and together we must be brave enough to demand that it find its way back. Thank you.

Tom Gorman: My name is Tom Gorman. I’m not a politician, I’m not a public speaker. I’m a father of whose daughter was murdered by an illegal immigrant. I’m a husband who had to hold his wife on Mother’s Day when she asked the question no mother should ever have to ask. Through tears, Jess looked at Maddie and me and asked, “Am I still the mother of two?”

There’s no answer big enough for that pain, no words, no comfort, no way to give back what was stolen from our family. All I could do was hold her and tell her the truth: “Yes, Jess, you’re still the mother of two because Sheridan will always be our daughter.” No mother should ever have to ask that question, and no father should ever have to answer it.

This is what failed policies have done to our family. We did not just lose Sheridan, we lost our peace, we lost our future, we lost the life that we knew, and no family should have to become experts in immigration failures, release policies, warrants, sanctuary laws, enforcement breakdowns, because their daughter was killed by someone who should not have been here and should not be free.

Let me be clear about one thing: we support legal immigration. Legal immigration has made America stronger. We all know families, neighbors, coworkers, and friends who have come and done it the right way, followed the law, they worked hard, built businesses, raised families, and made this country better. That is America at its best. But illegal immigration is different, criminal illegal immigration is different. Borders matter, laws matter, enforcement matters, and above all, American families matter.

We are deeply grateful to President Trump and to Congressman Mike Lawler for comforting our family, saying Sheridan’s name and fighting for policies that put the safety of American children and the citizens first. But I do not understand why this is a fight that belongs to only one party. Protecting our people is not politics. It is the first responsibility of government.

So, do not just feel sorry for us. Instead, remember Sheridan’s name and stand with us. Demand leaders who enforce our laws, secure our borders, cooperate with law enforcement, and put innocent American families first. Sheridan should have come home, and because she did not, we will spend the rest of our lives fighting so that someone else’s daughter can. Parents out there, give your kids a big hug, tell them how much you love them. Thank you very much.

A new report by the New York Post has revealed that First Daughter Ivanka Trump was targeted in an assassination plot by a terrorist trained by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).

Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood Al-Saadi, who was arrested on May 15 in Turkey and has since been extradited to the United States on charges of orchestrating terror attacks in the United States and Europe, reportedly pledged to assassinate Ivanka Trump.

Before his arrest, Al-Saadi reportedly obtained a blueprint of Ivanka’s Florida home and told those close to him he was going to kill the First Daughter in response to President Trump’s drone strike on former Iranian military general Qasem Soleimani.

Per The New York Post:

First Daughter Ivanka Trump was targeted for assassination by an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) trained terrorist in a twisted plot to avenge the president taking out his mentor, The Post has learned.

Recently captured Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood Al-Saadi, 32, made a “pledge” to kill Ivanka and even had a blueprint of her Florida home, sources claimed.

The Iraqi national was allegedly targeting President Donald Trump’s family in response to the killing of Iranian military chief Qasem Soleimani in a US drone strike in Baghdad six years ago.

“After Qasem was killed, he [Al-Saadi] went around telling people ‘we need to kill Ivanka to burn down the house of Trump the way he burned down our house,’” Entifadh Qanbar, a former deputy military attaché in the Iraqi embassy in Washington told The Post.

“We heard that he had a plan of Ivanka’s house in Florida,” Qanbar added. A second source also confirmed Al-Saadi’s plot to kill Ivanka.

Here’s the map Al-Saadi posted on his X account:

The DOJ, in a press release last week, shared that Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood Al-Saadi was a senior member of Kata’ib Hizballah, a U.S.-designated foreign terrorist organization (FTO).

Per the DOJ:

The Justice Department announced today the arrest of Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood Al-Saadi, an Iraqi national and senior member of Kata’ib Hizballah, a U.S. designated foreign terrorist organization (FTO). Al-Saadi was charged by complaint with six counts of terrorism-related offenses for his activities as an operative of Kata’ib Hizballah and Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), including his involvement in nearly 20 attacks and attempted attacks throughout Europe and the United States.

“As alleged, Al-Saadi coordinated a wave of attacks across Europe, including bombings, arson, and assaults targeting American communities and interests,” said Assistant Attorney General for National Security John A. Eisenberg. “The complaint further alleges that Al-Saadi discussed attacking locations in New York, California, and Arizona and presented a serious threat to our national security. We will continue to work closely with international partners to hold terrorists accountable in U.S. courts.”

Few outside of the FBI have heard of Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood al-Saadi, but they say he’s behind a series of attacks – including in the UK

The Guardian reported that a complaint unsealed in a federal court in Manhattan on Friday morning revealed Al-Saadi is being accused of orchestrating the shooting that occurred outside the U.S. Consulate in Toronto back in March.

He’s also being charged with organizing the recent stabbing of two Jewish men in London in April.

Argentina’s President Javier Milei cut government spending, reduced crime, lowered inflation, and improved the lives of Argentines. He is a Trump ally, and globalists oppose him for it. Consequently, they have rewritten history and forgotten that the Treasury’s Exchange Stabilization Fund President Trump used in Argentina has existed for decades.

Media outlets and Democratic lawmakers have claimed that President Trump set up an illegal slush fund in Argentina using taxpayer money. In reality, the mechanism in question, the Exchange Stabilization Fund (ESF), has existed since 1934, has been used by presidents of both parties for decades, and does not allow any American politician to personally benefit from its funds.

On October 9, 2025, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced a $20 billion currency swap with Argentina’s central bank. The Treasury agreed to purchase up to $20 billion in pesos from Argentina in exchange for U.S. dollars, using resources from the Exchange Stabilization Fund (ESF). By the end of October 2025, Argentina had drawn $2.5 billion through the swap line.

The transaction was a loan, not a gift. Argentina was the debtor, and the United States was the creditor. Argentina subsequently repaid the full amount, and Treasury Secretary Bessent later announced that the deal generated tens of millions of dollars in profit for the United States.

The Exchange Stabilization Fund (ESF) is an emergency reserve fund of the U.S. Treasury created by Congress through the Gold Reserve Act of 1934 and made permanent under the Bretton Woods Agreements Act of 1945. The Treasury Secretary can use it, without prior congressional approval, to support foreign governments, work with the IMF, and stabilize financial markets.

The ESF is subject to oversight. Treasury reports its activities to Congress monthly and to the public quarterly through the Federal Reserve. Foreign-government loan agreements must also be reported under the Case-Zablocki Act.

No taxpayer funds have been appropriated to the ESF since its initial $2 billion capitalization in 1934. The fund has remained self-financing through investment earnings and financial operations.

Since 1936, the ESF has participated in more than 100 credit operations with foreign governments. Argentina received seven ESF loans totaling $2.4 billion between 1982 and the early 1990s, all of which were repaid. Mexico received eleven loans totaling $40 billion, and Brazil received eight totaling $7.6 billion.

Countries receiving ESF support under President Ronald Reagan included Jamaica, the Philippines, Ecuador, Nigeria, Yugoslavia, Venezuela, Bolivia, Poland, Guyana, Honduras, Hungary, Costa Rica, Romania, Panama, and Peru.

The best-known ESF operation was the Clinton administration’s 1995 Mexico intervention, structured as a $20 billion currency swap after Congress rejected direct aid. Mexico borrowed $12 billion, repaid it in full, and the United States earned roughly $500 million in profit.

Although the Obama and Biden administrations did not use the ESF for sovereign loans, both relied heavily on the Federal Reserve’s parallel swap-line system. During the 2008 financial crisis, the Federal Reserve extended swap lines to 14 central banks, with outstanding drawings peaking above $580 billion. Those arrangements became permanent in 2013. During the COVID-19 pandemic, swap-line usage peaked at roughly $470 billion in May 2020, with most funds going to the European Central Bank and the Bank of Japan.

The 2025 Argentina agreement was the first new ESF foreign-government operation since Uruguay’s 2002 stabilization package, but it used the same legal authority and financial mechanism employed by prior administrations of both parties.

The underlying legal authority, mechanism, and purpose of Federal Reserve swap lines and ESF swap lines are functionally similar. In both cases, the programs have historically been used to support U.S. allies and strategically important partners. One of the media claims is that Trump is using the money to prop up an ally. However, the United States has never used either mechanism to support an adversarial government.

The U.S. tends to provide financial assistance to allied nations rather than those that hate us. Somehow, the press and the Democrats forgot this and decided that Trump and Argentina’s President Javier Milei having a good relationship was a smoking gun.

The New York Times framed the deal as “staking taxpayer money” on a risky bet and implied conflicts of interest through Bessent’s Wall Street associations. However, this criticism makes little sense because every country-to-country financial agreement is, by definition, funded from public accounts. The United States routinely extends loans to countries facing financial crises, and repayment risk is inherent in sovereign lending.

NPR called the ESF ‘essentially the Treasury Department’s private slush fund.’ However, the Peterson Institute for International Economics concluded that ‘the present-day ESF in no way resembles a slush fund.’ A slush fund is money used secretly for corrupt personal benefit. The ESF was created by Congress, operates under statutory legal authority, and has been reported to Congress monthly since the 1970s.

MSNBC stated that Americans were “on the hook” for $20 billion. However, “on the hook” implies debt, but America did not borrow money from Argentina. The United States extended a loan to Argentina, which Argentina was obligated to repay and ultimately did repay, with profit to the United States.

Democrats in Congress, including Congressman Josh Gottheimer and Representative Nydia Velázquez, called the deal a misuse of taxpayer money and criticized the lack of publicly disclosed repayment terms. Both claims fail the historical test.

The ESF statute, 31 U.S.C. § 5302, has never required public disclosure of specific loan terms. That has been standard practice in ESF operations since the 1930s. ESF agreements have historically contained limited public detail to allow faster execution. The only statutory requirement is written presidential notification to Congress for loans extending beyond six months.

The Washington Monthly called Javier Milei “a strong man in the mold of Viktor Orbán.” Milei ran in a free and fair election, won democratically, and has governed through legal and legislative means. Comparing him to another leader the media dislikes proves nothing negative about Milei.

Since taking office in December 2023, Milei’s administration has eliminated Argentina’s budget deficit for the first time in 123 years. The country moved from a primary deficit of roughly 3 percent of GDP in 2023 to a 2 percent surplus in 2024 after cutting primary spending by 32 percent. Inflation fell from 211.4 percent in 2023 to 43.5 percent by mid-2025, while monthly CPI dropped to 1.5 percent in May 2025, the lowest level in five years.

After contracting 1.3 percent in 2024, Argentina’s economy grew 4.4 percent in 2025, driven by private consumption, exports, and investment growth. Poverty, which initially rose during the adjustment period, later declined from 53 percent in the first half of 2024 to 31.6 percent by the first half of 2025, the lowest level since 2018. Moody’s upgraded Argentina’s sovereign credit rating, citing Milei’s “effective and forceful policy adjustments,” and the IMF stated that the government had exceeded expectations.

Crime also declined under Milei. Argentina’s homicide rate fell to 3.7 per 100,000 people in 2025, down 5.6 percent from the previous year and down 17 percent over two years, giving the country the lowest murder rate in Latin America and the Caribbean for the second consecutive year. In Rosario, Argentina’s most violent city, murders dropped 72 percent through October 2024 compared to the same period in 2023.

Globalist leaders never forgave Javier Milei for calling Europe a socialist “nanny state.” By definition, a nanny state is one that expects free money and defense while doing little to improve its own situation.

A handful of world leaders, including President Trump, El Salvador’s Nayib Bukele, and Javier Milei, have demonstrated that arresting criminals and cutting government spending can cause short-term pain followed by long-term improvements in the quality of life for average citizens. Globalists are calling for their removal from office and their incarceration.

Students are still believed to be trapped under the rubble as frantic rescue efforts continue.

Let me just say that if today’s Ukrainian attack on the college dorm in Russian-conquered Luhansk had been perpetrated by Moscow forces, you would be hearing about it in all news shows, non-stop, all day long.

Over 80 young people were in the dorm at the time of the drone attack.

So far, 6 students are reported dead and more than 35 wounded, many seriously. There are reportedly still people trapped in the rubble, as the rescue efforts continue.

All day long, the bloody MSM erected a wall of silence around this alleged war crime, until Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered his military ‘to prepare options to retaliate against Ukraine’.

At least 4 people are dead as a result of the Ukrainian attack on a college dormitory in Starobelsk.

Due to the threat of a second attack, search and rescue operations have been suspended.

Reuters reported:

“Putin said the attack had struck the dorm in Starobilsk in Luhansk, a Russian-controlled region in eastern Ukraine. He said Kiev’s military must have known what it was targeting.

[…] ‘There are no military facilities, intelligence service facilities, or related services in the vicinity. Therefore, there ⁠is absolutely no basis for claiming that the munitions struck the building as a result of our air defense or electronic warfare systems. The ​strike was not accidental; it came in three waves, with 16 drones targeting the same location’, Putin told officials.”

Putin ordered the Russian military to develop options for retaliation.

RT reported:

“Here’s what Putin also said about the attack: 

• Fifteen people are still listed as missing; The strike ‘was not accidental’ and came in three waves, with 16 drones sent to the same target.
• Kiev needs ‘crimes’ like the dormitory strike to distract from its “catastrophic” situation at the front and then blame Russia for the consequences.
• Western aid to Ukraine is being regularly ‘stolen’ and forced mobilization sees people ‘caught on the streets like stray dogs and thrown to the front’.
• Putin urged Ukrainian soldiers not to carry out ‘criminal orders’ from what he called an “illegitimate, corrupt junta in Kiev’.”

‘We understand making statements is not enough, the Ministry of Defense will also be making its RESPONSE’
