President Trump Reacts to Supreme Court’s Decision to Block Missouri’s GOP-Favored Congressional Map
September 27, 2026
President Trump on Sunday morning reacted to the Supreme Court’s decision to block Missouri’s new Congressional map ahead of the midterm elections.
The US Supreme Court on Friday evening once again blocked Missouri from using its new, GOP-favored map.
This is the third time the Supreme Court blocked Missouri’s new map.
Last year, the Missouri House of Representatives, controlled by Republicans, passed a sweeping new congressional map that would reduce Democrat representation to just one seat.
However, the Missouri Supreme Court threw out the state’s new map that eliminated one Democrat seat.
Missouri took the fight to the federal courts and the Supreme Court twice blocked the new map.
On Monday, the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals said Missouri’s current plan to use the old map (2022) that favored the Democrats for this year’s midterms violates the Constitution.
The three-judge panel included: Judges Loken (George H W Bush), David Stras (Trump) and Justin D Smith (Trump).
“This Court holds that Missouri’s current plan to use the 2022 map in the November 2026 general election violates the Constitution. Only use of the 2025 map complies with the Constitution and federal law. We affirm the district court1 and remand for entry of a permanent injunction,” the panel for the appeals court wrote.
On Friday evening, the high court blocked the Eighth Circuit Court’s order. There was no dissent.
The Supreme Court cited its previous concerns about changing the Congressional map after voting had already begun.
On Sunday, President Trump blasted the Supreme Court for overruling judges who came to the ‘correct decisions.’
Full statement from President Trump:
The Supreme Court of the United States will just not let Missouri have an Election Victory.
They continuously, three times now, overrule Judges who came to the correct decisions. Thank you to the Governor, and all of the Great People of Missouri, who are fighting so hard for Fairness and Election Security.
Such tremendous Spirit and Love of our Country. I won Missouri BIG, all three times, and I couldn’t be more proud of doing so. A great place — I love you all! President DONALD J. TRUMP
POPE MANIA: Leo XIV Brings 800,000 People to Champs Elysées – In Lourdes Sanctuary, He Again Condemns Euthanasia and Assisted Suicide, Calls for the ‘Defense of the Weakest’ (VIDEOS)

Saint Peter’s successor, a pilgrim, defender of the family and of the weakest.
The historic visit of Pope Leo XIV to France continued yesterday with two massive events: between 800,000 and a million people congregated in an open-air mass in Paris’s Place de la Concorde – with the crowd lining all the way up the Champs-Élysées.
For many, it was the high point of the four-day tour.
It is impossible to overstate what we are seeing today in Paris
1 million people are attending Pope Leo XIV’s Mass
They are lining the entire length of the Champs Elysee to the Arc de Triomphe and chanting the name of the head of the Catholic Church
“In his sermon to the city, he warned against ‘material goods’, ‘immediate gratification’ and ‘the countless little idols that promise the Moon but leave our hearts empty’.
He also told the thousands of young people present: ‘You are the Church today. How wonderful it is to see your enthusiasm, your dynamism, your commitment and the joy within Christian communities’, the Pope said before paying tribute to ‘this beautiful country, France’.”
The streets of Paris have become one giant open-air confessional as thousands of people—between 800,000 and 1 million—fill the Champs-Élysées for Mass with the Pope this Saturday, September 27.
Many knelt on the Champs-Élysées to pray during the hour-and-a-half-long service.
“’From this beautiful city of Paris, I pray fervently that the living water of the Holy Spirit may pour out over the whole of France’.”
“Do not keep your faith in Jesus Christ to yourselves. Rather, let it overflow.”
Pope Leo delivers a powerful message to 800,000 people at an outdoor mass in Paris, urging the massive crowd to showcase their faith and spread it to the rest of the world.
“The Pope spared a thought for families, praising those who, ‘despite the many difficulties on a daily basis, persevere courageously in your mission. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the good that is being accomplished through you’, he added.”
One absence that greatly improved the event was outgoing French President Emmanuel Macron.
But emotions were to run even higher as Leo later visited the Sanctuary of Lourdes.

“Pope Leo XIV doubled down on his opposition to euthanasia and medically assisted dying during a visit Sunday to Lourdes, the French Catholic shrine associated with miraculous cures and now also a place of healing for survivors of clergy sexual abuse.
Leo denounced the ‘current trends that seek to redefine the value of human life in illness, suffering and old age’, during a Mass on the Lourdes prairie before some 150,000 people, many of them in wheelchairs. ‘Here, no one is turned away due to their frailty’, Leo said in his homily.”

France: Algerian ‘Teacher’ Arrested Over Alleged Rape and Sexual Assaults of Children Aged 3–5 at a Paris Catholic Nursery; 20 Complaints Filed
September 27, 2026
Paris – France, via Bonjour Paris
A 31-year-old Algerian national has been indicted and jailed pending trial over allegations of rape, sexual assault and violence against 22 children at a private Catholic nursery school in Paris.
According to reports from the French and wider pan-European press, accusations involve boys and girls born between 2020 and 2022, some barely old enough to explain clearly what had allegedly happened to them.
The suspect, identified in French reports as Yasser G., worked for Cap English and delivered introductory English lessons at École Saint-Laurent in Paris’s 10th arrondissement. He taught small groups during roughly 30-minute sessions and was reportedly left alone with the children without their regular classroom teacher present.
Paris prosecutors say the 22 children interviewed described alleged shouting, insults, blows, intimate touching and acts of sexual penetration. Those claims remain allegations to be tested by an investigating judge, but their scale has transformed what began with one family’s complaint into a major child-protection case.
The alarm began with the parents of a three-and-a-half-year-old girl who said their daughter described the instructor as “mean” and told them he had touched her intimate parts. Her family alerted the school through its École Directe system on May 11, weeks before police received the formal complaint.
What happened next has left parents furious. Families say management initially treated the information as “mixed” and questioned groups of children itself rather than immediately removing the instructor and leaving interviews to specialists trained to handle possible sexual abuse.
The instructor continued having access to pupils after that first warning. On May 22, the school director even contacted parents about expanding Cap English lessons to Wednesdays, and the children subsequently spent about three additional hours with him before the academic year ended.
The first family finally filed its formal complaint on June 22 and informed Saint-Laurent the next day. Cap English then suspended the instructor, while the school notified prosecutors and later announced psychological assistance for affected families.
Cap English insists it acted as soon as the school formally notified the company. It also says the legally required checks carried out when the instructor was recruited revealed nothing that prevented him from working with children.
Yet the case raises an uncomfortable question about what those safeguards actually accomplish when an outside contractor can repeatedly enter a nursery classroom and be left alone with children as young as three. A screening system that satisfies paperwork requirements but fails to prevent abuse, if the allegations are proved, offers little consolation to families afterward.
Investigators did not arrest the instructor during the summer while specialists undertook the lengthy process of interviewing young children. Reports say that before his eventual arrest, he had already obtained another job at a management school for the new academic year.
Police detained him on September 22, and he appeared before a judge two days later. Prosecutors secured his placement in pre-trial detention while an examining magistrate now oversees the investigation.
Parents have directed some of their fiercest criticism at Saint-Laurent’s leadership. One mother said families had initially been asked to remain silent so as not to interfere with investigators, but described management’s communication as “catastrophic from the start” and said the affair had to become public.
Another father spoke of “stress” and “anxiety” and said it was horrifying that someone could allegedly operate on what he called an “industrial” scale. A mother who attended a school meeting said parents became angry when officials continued describing the information as uncertain, arguing that a child of that age does not simply invent such allegations.
Lawyers representing several families are now examining whether institutional negligence compounded the alleged criminal conduct. Attorney Antonin Gravelin-Rodriguez said the affair had not been handled internally as it should have been and pledged scrutiny of institutional failures and responsibility.
The fact that the alleged abuse occurred inside a Catholic nursery school has sharpened the sense of betrayal among families who expected unusually strong supervision and a clear duty to protect vulnerable children. The Diocese of Paris had not responded to the press inquiries cited in the material provided, while school management initially declined further comment.
The suspect’s Algerian nationality has inevitably pushed the affair into France’s bitter argument over mass immigration, assimilation and the standards applied to people entrusted with children. That nationality is a documented fact in this case, but the available reporting does not establish his immigration route, length of residence, citizenship history or whether immigration authorities ever had grounds to exclude or remove him.
France does have a broader and worsening problem with recorded sexual violence against minors. Interior Ministry data show 132,300 victims of recorded sexual violence in 2025, including 76,200 minors, while the overall number of recorded sexual-violence victims rose 8% from the previous year.
11 staff members are accused of sexual assaults and rapes at the Saint-Dominique nursery school, in the 7th arrondissement of Paris, France.

The Interior Ministry’s 2025 crime assessment specifically notes disproportionate involvement of foreign nationals in some property offenses, but its published summary does not support converting this individual nursery-school case into a general claim that foreigners as a group are responsible for sexual violence against French children.
The National Rally has nevertheless made drastically tighter immigration enforcement a central part of its political program. In March 2026 the party celebrated tougher European return rules as a major step against illegal immigration, arguing that European governments had tolerated migration policies for years that RN says weakened national control over who enters and remains on the continent.
Marine Le Pen has for years connected her immigration agenda with security, assimilation and the protection of women and families, calling for sharply reduced immigration, stronger national borders and the expulsion of foreign offenders. Those are longstanding RN political arguments rather than conclusions established by the Saint-Laurent investigation, but cases involving foreign suspects predictably intensify the debate the party has built much of its identity around.
(VIDEO) Trump Confirms Foiled Attack on UK’s RAF Fairford Base
September 27, 2026
President Trump responded to reports of a foiled terrorist attack at the UK’s Royal Air Force Fairford base, where US bombers and troops are currently stationed.
The base has been used by US forces to execute the bombing campaign against Iran.
According to the Telegraph, counterterrorism police are currently investigating whether Iran was behind the plot.
Trump commended the work with Britain to stop the plot, saying that the suspects were under surveillance “for a long time.”
“The arrest in the UK was fantastic. Working with Britain, it was an amazing job. We had them under investigation,” Trump told reporters on Sunday, confirming the reports.
“They were looking to do big damage to our port, and working with the British worked out great.”
“It may have been Scotland Yard. I don’t know. We worked with a lot of them. We had them under view for a long time, and we got them,” he added.
WATCH:
As The Gateway Pundit reported earlier, British police made several arrests in connection with the plot.
Five suspects were photographed in British police detention after their suspicious vans, which were suspected of carrying chemicals and explosives, were reported traveling toward the air base.
Aerial footage captured by a news helicopter shows an explosive ordnance disposal robot operating near what is believed to be the vans used by the suspected terrorists.
University of Chicago Staff Backs Off Attempt to Cancel Campus Event With Red-Pilled YouTuber Tim Pool

Tim Pool is a popular YouTube personality who has become increasingly red-pilled in the age of Trump. He now frequently claims that the left is a cult.
Pool is set to give a talk at the University of Chicago in October and some people on the staff were trying to get the event canceled. They have since thought better of it and have backed off.
This is typical of the left. They routinely try to silence anyone who tries to speak on college campuses if the speaker is perceived to be anywhere to the right of Bernie Sanders.
U. Chicago reverses, won’t cancel ‘controversial’ Tim Pool event
University of Chicago staff backed down on a plan to cancel a “controversial” event with commentator Tim Pool, scheduled for Oct. 9.
Just weeks after being named the best school for free speech by the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression, the college told organizers the event would need to be canceled.
The cancellation attempt follows the school’s long history of denying a Turning Point USA chapter, despite the school’s professed commitment to free speech.
The Chicago Thinker reports:
In an obtained email exchange, and only with the description of the event given and knowledge of it being booked by UChicago TPUSA, [the Institute for the Study of Ancient Cultures] told Thinker organizers that their event “might be, as the terminology goes “controversial,” and therefore could not occur in Breasted Hall on October 9th due to controversial events allegedly requiring an infeasible heightened security arrangement where ISAC would close its museum gallery. ISAC further says they should have been informed about the event’s “controversial” nature earlier. ISAC asked no questions about the “controversial” nature of events in their Event Request Form, or in subsequent email exchanges with Thinker organizers to book the venue.
In the video below, Tim Pool explains why he believes the left is a cult.
Has the Democrat Party become a cult?
They had Trump. They had RFK. They had Tulsi. They had Elon. They ran them all out.
