Three hundred thousand. That is the figure the federal government now uses to describe the unaccompanied migrant children that the Biden administration’s Department of Health and Human Services lost track of or handed to unvetted sponsors between January 2021 and December 2024. Three hundred thousand children is not a statistic. It is the population of Anaheim. It is larger than Pittsburgh, larger than Cincinnati, larger than St. Louis. It is a city of children, and the United States government cannot tell you where most of them are tonight.

The cabinet secretary who presided over that disappearance is now asking Californians to make him their next governor.

Discovering fraud isn’t victory. It’s the bare minimum. In California, Attorney General Rob Bonta announced charges against 21 suspects in a $267 million Medi-Cal hospice fraud ring. Shell companies used stolen identities to bill taxpayers for end-of-life care that never happened—no patients, no services, just straight cash grabs.

Days earlier, federal agents arrested eight more in a separate $50 million scheme running sham hospices across Los Angeles. Feds have now suspended 447 hospices and 23 home health outfits over an estimated $600 million in Medicare rip-offs. Ground zero is LA County, where hundreds of these operations trigger every red flag in the book.

The Dominican Sisters of Hawthorne, a 125-year-old Catholic religious order, filed a federal lawsuit on April 7, 2026, challenging New York's LGBTQ Long-Term Care Facility Residents' Bill of Rights, signed by Gov. Kathy Hochul in November 2023.

The sisters operate Rosary Hill Home, a 42-bed facility in Hawthorne, New York, providing free terminal cancer care to those who cannot afford it — accepting no insurance or government funds.

New York's law requires nursing homes to assign rooms and grant bathroom access based on gender identity, use preferred pronouns, conduct biennial gender ideology staff training, and post anti-discrimination notices — all under threat of criminal penalties.

Non-compliance can result in fines starting at $2,000 per violation, escalating to $5,000 for repeat violations, with "willful violations" carrying fines up to $10,000 and up to one year in prison.

Over a four-year period, the New York State Department of Health received zero complaints against Rosary Hill Home, compared to more than 55,000 complaints against other nursing facilities statewide.

The state's law includes a religious exemption for facilities operated by the Church of Christ, Scientist, but provides no such protection for Catholic or other religious organizations.

The Catholic Benefits Association sought a religious exemption from the state on March 5, 2026; no response was received, prompting the lawsuit.

The sisters' lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, argues the law violates the First and Fourteenth Amendments.

The order was founded in 1900 by Mother Mary Alphonsa Lathrop, daughter of author Nathaniel Hawthorne; Pope Francis declared her venerable in March 2024.

Senator Thom Tillis has publicly declared he will block any attorney general nominee who fails his personal “red line” on January 6, effectively holding the Trump administration’s justice agenda hostage.

As a senior member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Tillis wields outsized influence over confirmations for judges, prosecutors, and top law-enforcement officials at the precise moment the Department of Justice must be restored to impartiality.

His previous veto of Ed Martin as U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia—solely because Martin defended January 6 defendants—demonstrates a pattern of prioritizing a partisan narrative over the president’s constitutional authority.

Senate committee assignments are controlled by each party’s conference; the Republican leadership can reassign Tillis immediately through the Conference or steering committee without needing a full floor vote.

Because Tillis has already announced his retirement at the end of this Congress, removal carries minimal long-term electoral fallout for him and clears the path for a more reliable conservative replacement on the committee.

Potential blowback includes predictable media hysteria labeling the move a “purge,” but the real risk of inaction is continued obstruction of nominees essential to ending the weaponization of federal law enforcement.

Party discipline on key committees is not radical; it is standard practice when a member repeatedly places personal ideology above the mandate voters delivered in 2024.

Removing Tillis would send an unmistakable signal: the Senate GOP will not tolerate internal roadblocks to the restoration of equal justice under law.

Democrats have spent years warning that voter ID laws amount to a new era of voter suppression — a modern-day Jim Crow designed to disenfranchise minority communities. But a viral moment from a black church in Alabama is raising some uncomfortable questions about that narrative.

Representative Shomari Figures, a Democrat, recently stood before a Black congregation and posed a pointed question: how many of you do not have a driver's license? He likely expected the moment to underscore the supposed burden that voter ID requirements place on Black Americans. Instead, not a single hand went up.

There is an old adage in politics, roughly translated from the language of hardball to plain English, that you don't spend ammunition on a target that isn't a threat. By that measure, the American left has just handed JD Vance the most sincere endorsement a political figure can receive: they are terrified of him, and they want you to hate him before you've had the chance to decide for yourself.

The coordinated campaign to define the Vice President is now fully underway, and its architects aren't even bothering to disguise the strategy. Democrat operative Lis Smith — the same consultant who helped Pete Buttigieg transform himself from the mayor of South Bend into a national commodity — put the game plan on the table without apology: the left must begin defining Vance "not in 2027, not in 2028 — but today."

A new report indicates President Donald Trump is expected to endorse Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton in the Republican Senate primary runoff against incumbent Sen. John Cornyn.

The May 26 runoff follows a March 3 primary in which neither candidate reached 50 percent, with Cornyn edging Paxton by a slim margin and Rep. Wesley Hunt taking third.

Over half of GOP primary voters supported candidates other than Cornyn, signaling significant dissatisfaction with the longtime senator.

Paxton received strong grassroots applause at CPAC in Dallas this week, reinforcing his position as the preferred choice among the base.

Trump met positively with Paxton last week and has privately acknowledged that the MAGA base stands firmly with the attorney general.

Establishment support for Cornyn appears to be waning, with limited financial backing from key Senate committees.

The endorsement decision remains tied in part to progress on Trump’s legislative priorities, including elements of the SAVE Act.

Paxton has made clear he will not exit the race regardless of Trump’s choice, stating he owes it to the people of Texas to continue fighting.

It can be extremely challenging to convince a modern leftist that their ideas are wrong. Even trying to get them to acknowledge that the borders are more secure today is often met with challenges in the "way" the border has been secured, which invariably turns the conversation towards ICE and deportations. Their cognitive dissonance is strong.

There is a path to wake many Democrats up, particular Black- and Hispanic-American Democrats. The contradictions between being of the Christian faith and adhering to Democrat political doctrine are clear and demonstrable. If we can't get people to wake up to the inefficacy of Democrat policies, perhaps making them understand that they cannot in good faith be a Christian and Democrat at the same time. This is what happened in Detroit this week.
