President Trump commented on the investigation into Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) on Monday, telling reporters that he has “nothing to do with it” while going off on Omar after her home was raided this morning. 

The Gateway Pundit reported earlier that the criminal fraud investigation is looking at Omar’s immigration paperwork documents, which were filled out by her late father when she was a child.

A pre-dawn raid of her home began at around 6 am this morning and continued for over four hours as agents were seen carrying boxes of evidence out of her home.

A reporter asked Trump whether he had known about the raid in advance, and he confirmed that authorities are “looking at her very carefully” before slamming the third-world Congresswoman.

“Well, I understand they’re looking at her very carefully. I’ve always found her to be totally crooked, personally, but that has nothing to do with me,” he said.

“I think she’s a terrible person, just a complainer. She comes from a country that is a non-country, and then she comes over here, and she complains about our Constitution.”

“I think she’s a terrible person, but that’s really up to the DOJ; I have nothing to do with it,” he added.

WATCH:

The probe is looking into whether she or her father lied on her citizenship application and obtained citizenship through fraudulent means.

Investigators are reportedly trying to determine whether she lied about being a minor when she obtained her citizenship via the parental path in 2000.

Eric Lewis, the man charged with killing Philadelphia Officer Shane Seiber and wounding his partner in an ambush attack on Saturday, told investigators he opened fire because the officers were white.

Lewis, 35, a Philadelphia Water Department employee, was arrested after a nearly hour-long standoff early Saturday on the 100 block of North 52nd Street.

Officers had been called just after midnight for a man with a gun on a porch.

When they arrived, Lewis walked up from across the street, according to a report from the Philadelphia Inquirer.

They asked if he lived there, and he began yelling.

A brief struggle followed.

As the officers moved to check whether he was armed, he shot them, a law enforcement source told the Inquirer.

The suspect kept firing after they were down, the source said, yelling that he had told them to get off his porch.

After SWAT pulled Lewis from a tree that he climbed as an apparent escape attempt, they found he was armed with a shotgun, a handgun, and a Glock taken from one of the wounded officers. They took him to Jefferson University Hospital.

OMG. The thug who ambushed police officers in Philadelphia just admitted he targeted them because they are WHITE

If this were reversed, it would be wall-to-wall coverage on every network as a hate crime.

Eric Lewis, who m*rdered one of the officers, JUST TOLD INVESTIGATORS: He did it because they are white

Because. They. Are. WHITE.

THIS IS INFURIATING!

Lewis has a major rap sheet, a known criminal. He saw white officers then opened fire. Because of their skin color

This is what anti-white hatred does when it’s provoked in the media for years.

Rest in peace, Officer Shane Seiber

Seiber was a 40-year-old Air Force veteran and a father of two little kids.

According to the arrest report, he said he shot the officers after they put their hands on him.

“I did what I did because they did what they did,” he said.

He also said he shot them because they were white.

He told one officer at the hospital, a black woman, that “if it was you that responded we would have just had a conversation.”

Lewis added, “They had guns, so I had every right to defend myself.”

Seiber, 40, a father of two and a 10-year veteran of the 19th District, was hit three times and died hours later at Penn Presbyterian Medical Center.

His partner, a 33-year-old father of five and nine-year veteran, was shot 12 times and remained hospitalized in critical but stable condition.

Commissioner Kevin Bethel said Seiber “fought valiantly, but he lost his life.”

Seiber leaves a wife and two children, ages 7 and 3. He had just celebrated his 10th anniversary with the department and was an Air Force veteran.

Lewis faces charges of murder, 10 counts of attempted murder, assault of a law enforcement officer, and related offenses.

He has been denied bail and a preliminary hearing is set for October 26.

A federal judge on Monday halted the Trump Administration’s renovation project at the East Potomac Golf Course.

US District Judge Ana Reyes, a Biden appointee, excoriated Trump DOJ lawyers during a hearing on Monday morning.

Uruguayan-born Judge Reyes said Trump Admin lawyers had told her that the administration would alert her if they were taking “irreversible” actions at the DC golf course.

The Trump Administration removed more than 400 trees from the East Potomac Golf Course over the weekend, and Judge Reyes flipped out.

“I’m furious,” Judge Reyes said on Monday morning.

“What has happened has cost the government all of its credibility,” Reyes added.

Judge Reyes screamed at the DOJ lawyers: “Ignorance is not an excuse!”

REYES is yelling now. “Ignorance is not an excuse” she tells DOJ after they say they weren’t aware of the details of the tree-cutting plan, despite having an inkling.

Stephen Miller blasted the crazed, foreign-born judge.

“I missed the part of the Constitutional Convention that put federal judges in charge of golf course maintenance. The Left is endlessly enraged that, after allowing DC to decay for decades, the Trump Administration is making it safe, clean and beautiful,” said Trump Deputy Chief of Staff for policy Stephen Miller.

Also, notice that leftist judges are never “enraged” when Democrats free illegal alien rapists and murderers. That kind of anger is reserved solely for improving long-neglected public golf courses.

The AP reported:

U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes on Monday ordered a 24-hour halt to tree cutting at the East Potomac Golf Course, a historic D.C. golf course that has been part of President Donald Trump’s plans to remake the city.

Reyes issued the order following a tense three-hour hearing in which she blistered the government for having deceived her with its actions over the holiday weekend.

Reyes said the 24-hour temporary order could be extended to 14 days if necessary. It was limited to one day while the government tries to find a key Trump administration official to discuss why a massive tree-cutting at the park needed to occur over the holiday weekend, with little notification to plaintiffs in a lawsuit trying to halt renovation plans or the judge.

The hearing started with a blistering 15-minute statement from Reyes, who has declined repeated motions from the plaintiffs to halt work by the administration out of concern that its strategy has seemed to be move ahead on projects despite court actions.

Legendary Metallica frontman James Hetfield shredded left-wing Hollywood arrogance during a concert in Las Vegas, delivering a fiery reality check to out-of-touch entertainers who use their massive platforms to lecture fans with political propaganda.

During the band’s October 10 show as part of its ongoing “Life Burns Faster” residency at the high-tech Sphere, Hetfield paused between songs to thank fans who had traveled and spent money to be there.

He then delivered a direct shot at other performers who treat concerts like political rallies.

“Unless you live in Vegas, you’ve come a long way to spend some time with Metallica. We’re grateful for that — your travels, the money you spend, the time it took, thanks for coming to celebrate with us,” Hetfield said, according to reports and video from the show.

“And I just gotta say, Metallica is not here, like some other entertainers, to influence you with their bullshit, okay? We are here…no bullshit…we’re here to forget about all the outside shit, okay? Metallica’s agenda is love, energy and heavy music, baby!”

The comments landed as a refreshing rejection of the growing habit among left-leaning artists to turn stages into soapboxes.

Hetfield did not name anyone specifically, but the remarks come amid recent high-profile examples of entertainers injecting politics into live shows, including Macklemore’s anti-Israel material that led to chaos on Ed Sheeran’s tour, Paramore’s Hayley Williams shouting political slogans, and leftist events like the “Power to the People” festival organized by Rage Against the Machine’s Tom Morello.

As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, Bruce Springsteen headlined the October 3 “Power to the People” festival in Maryland, where musicians and activist organizations promoted opposition to President Donald Trump.

The event featured Springsteen, Dave Matthews, and Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello. It also included anti-ICE rhetoric, pro-Palestinian chants, and political organizing efforts ahead of the midterm elections.

And Hetfield isn’t the only rock legend questioning whether audiences should be subjected to political speeches during concerts.

In July, The Gateway Pundit reported that Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger similarly argued that musicians should prioritize entertaining their audiences instead of lecturing them about politics.

Journey guitarist Jonathan Cain also blasted Springsteen for turning concerts into political rallies, urging him to concentrate on his music.

This isn’t the first time Hetfield has expressed frustration with politics invading music.

In a 2017 interview with Chilean newspaper La Tercera, Hetfield explained that he preferred keeping his political opinions private because political disagreements can divide listeners who would otherwise connect through music.

He specifically discussed how publicly supporting or opposing Trump could alienate fans who disagree with him.

And that distinction matters.

For many Americans, their money in the stock market is the nest egg. The 401(k). The IRA. Invested in fund after fund, all tied to the same Wall Street ups and downs. 

Most months you don’t think about it. Then one bad stretch hits, and you feel it in your stomach before you even open the app. 

That is concentration risk. When almost everything sits in paper markets, one rough month does not nick a small slice. It hits the retirement plan. 

Some people keep waiting for the next rebound and leave the whole basket where it is. Others want a slice that does not live only on a screen. 

Physical metal inside a retirement account 

That is where a Precious Metals IRA comes in. 

A Precious Metals IRA is a self-directed retirement account that can hold IRA-eligible physical gold and silver, not only stocks and funds. You open the account, move a portion of an existing IRA, 401(k), or other qualified plan through a rollover or transfer, then select metals held with a custodian and stored at a bullion depository. 

The goal is not to sell everything and hide under the mattress. It is to put a slice of a stock-heavy nest egg into physical metal so one rough stretch in the Dow does not hurt the whole plan the same way. 

You can also buy gold and silver directly if that fits better. Many people start with the retirement money because the money is already sitting in an old plan. 

In plain terms, the steps look like this: 

1. Open the precious metals IRA. 

2. Fund it with a rollover or transfer from an existing retirement account. 

3. Select IRA-eligible gold and silver. 

Distributions later can be cash or physical metal, subject to IRS rules. 

Who you trust matters 

Spot price is not the only question. When retirement money is on the line, who you work with matters. 

Goldco helps Americans open that kind of precious metals IRA and walk those steps. They have helped thousands of Americans place over $3 billion in gold and silver.
