    Trump Suggests Deporting Ilhan Omar ‘Back To Somalia’

    U.S. Rep Ilhan Omar, Ayanna Pressley, Rashida Tlaib, and Cori Bush speak at the Mississippi River in Minneapolis asking for President Biden to stop Line 3 pipeline construction.

    President Donald Trump escalated his criticism of Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) in a late-night Truth Social post Sunday, tying her to allegations of widespread fraud in Minnesota and accusing her of knowing details about the case.

    Trump’s comments came as part of a broader Sunday night posting spree that also revisited his push for the U.S. to acquire Greenland and raised concerns about a proposed New York Stock Exchange-style initiative reportedly being discussed for Dallas.

    But Trump’s sharpest remarks were aimed at Omar and Minnesota’s ongoing fraud investigation, which Republicans and administration officials have repeatedly cited as an example of major waste and abuse—particularly involving pandemic-era programs.

    In his post, Trump wrote:

    There is 19 Billion Dollars in Minnesota Somalia Fraud. Fake ‘Congresswoman’ Illhan Omar, a constant complainer who hates the USA, knows everything there is to know. She should be in jail, or even a worse punishment, sent back to Somalia, considered one of the absolutely worst countries in the World. She could help to MAKE SOMALIA GREAT AGAIN!

    The post followed Trump’s earlier claims Sunday that Omar and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) were using ICE operations and immigration enforcement disputes to shift public attention away from the fraud investigation.

    Republicans Point to Long-Running Minnesota Fraud Cases

    The Minnesota fraud controversy is not new, but it has continued to draw national attention—especially as Republican lawmakers and Trump administration officials argue that weak oversight and progressive political leadership have allowed major fraud schemes to flourish.

    Much of the recent focus has centered on a long-running Justice Department investigation involving alleged fraud tied to Minnesota-based programs. Minnesota’s Somali community has also been drawn into the spotlight in recent online coverage, including viral claims about alleged daycare-related fraud spread by YouTuber Nick Shirley.

    While critics argue the community has been unfairly targeted, conservatives say the issue is not ethnicity or immigration status—but the scale of fraud and whether political leaders turned a blind eye.

    Feeding Our Future Case Still Looms Over the State

    The most widely known Minnesota fraud case remains the Feeding Our Future scandal. In 2022, under the Biden administration, federal prosecutors indicted dozens of suspects in connection with the Feeding Our Future case, an alleged $250 million scheme involving pandemic-era food aid funds.

    The case has been frequently cited by Republicans as evidence that emergency spending programs during COVID were riddled with vulnerabilities and were too easily exploited.

    Omar Background and Trump Feud Remain Flashpoints

    Omar, who arrived in the U.S. as a refugee from Somalia at the age of 12 and became a citizen in 2000, was elected to Congress in 2018 and has consistently been a target of Trump’s attacks, which she has dismissed as racist and politically motivated.

    Trump and Omar have traded public attacks for years, with Omar frequently criticizing Trump-era immigration enforcement, foreign policy, and what she describes as nationalist rhetoric. Trump, in turn, has repeatedly singled her out as a symbol of what he and many conservatives view as an increasingly radical Democratic Party.

    The renewed attention comes as Trump and Republicans continue to highlight fraud and immigration enforcement as major election-year issues

    Elon Musk’s New America Party Poses Potential Threat To GOP

    Billionaire Elon Musk announced the launch of his new political party on Saturday, but has yet to share any further details on how he plans to navigate the red tape to establish a viable alternative.

    Musk on Saturday appeared to confirm his intention to launch his “America Party,” after posting a poll to his X account the prior day asking followers whether or not he should create the new party.

    “By a factor of 2 to 1, you want a new political party and you shall have it! When it comes to bankrupting our country with waste & graft, we live in a one-party system, not a democracy,” he wrote. “Today, the America Party is formed to give you back your freedom.”

    Elon Musk’s plan to launch a new US political party could split the Republicans, Donald Trump’s allies have warned.

    Musk, who until recently was a key Trump ally, said the America Party would adopt a “laser focus” on winning a handful of Senate seats and House districts in a bid to sway key votes on legislation.

    “Given the razor-thin legislative margins, that would be enough to serve as the deciding vote on contentious laws, ensuring that they serve the true will of the people,” he posted on X.

    On Sunday, Mr Musk responded to a post about how he could “break the two-party stranglehold” by writing: “Not hard tbh [to be honest].”

    Scott Bessent, the US Treasury secretary, insisted a Musk party would pose no threat to the Trump administration.

    “Look, the principles of Doge [the Department of Government Efficiency] were very popular. I think if you looked at the polling, Elon was not,” he told CNN on Sunday, referring to the cost-cutting agency Mr Musk headed for just over four months.

    However, Laura Loomer, a leading MAGA influencer who has been seen close to Trump, warned the move could trigger Republican defections and split the party’s base.

    “I predict Tucker Carlson, Marjorie Taylor Greene and Thomas Massie will join the new ‘America Party’ to spite President Trump,” she posted on X.

    Musk said his decision to form the party stemmed from opposition to Trump’s new economic bill, which includes significant reductions to Medicaid and the removal of subsidies for electric vehicles.

    The announcement follows the revival of his public feud with Trump, who threatened to cancel the Tesla tycoon’s government contracts and deport him back to South Africa.

    Speaking with reporters ahead of a flight to Florida last Tuesday, the president was asked about whether he would consider deporting the South African mogul.

    “We’ll have to take a look,” Trump said. “We might have to put DOGE on Elon. You know what DOGE is? DOGE is the monster that might have to go back and eat Elon! Wouldn’t that be terrible?”

    Maher Sounds Alarm – Trump Could Flip Marijuana Issue On Democrats

    By

    On Friday’s Real Time with Bill Maher, the long-time cannabis advocate gave credit where credit’s due — to Donald Trump.

    Maher acknowledged Trump’s emerging strategy to reschedule marijuana from Schedule I to Schedule III. It’s not full legalization, but it’s a significant shift that would loosen federal restrictions and move the ball forward on reform.

    He didn’t mince words. “I’ve been telling Democrats for years, the Republicans are gonna steal pot from you as an issue,” Maher said, half-joking, half-dead-serious.

    WARNING: EXPLICIT LANGUAGE

    What’s notable here isn’t just the policy — it’s who’s moving on it. Trump, once again, is positioning himself as a disruptor who knows how to cut through noise and win over voters issue by issue.

    Decider offers more information on Maher’s grudging respect for Trump’s “genius” strategy:

    He drove it home with a riff on Trump’s playbook: “He’s the master at winning votes from small groups who are passionate about one issue, picking up a couple percent here, a couple there…” until Election Night turns into something like a bizarre Y-M-C-A celebration.

    And when it comes to timing, Maher confessed—with tongue in cheek—that Trump finally swung by his own camp. “Finally, he got around to me,” he teased during his “New Rules” segment—comparing his own potential shift to that of single-issue Black voters who helped Trump make gains in key cities.

    “What did you expect?” he shrugged. “He’s the master…” And amid all of this, Trump has already said he’ll have a decision on cannabis rescheduling “in the next few weeks”—a move that would send seismic ripples through the cannabis industry and potentially benefit Maher personally, since he co-owns The Woods, a West Hollywood consumption lounge.

    Maher, who still identifies as a Democrat but often breaks ranks — especially with the woke crowd — used the moment to throw up a red flag to his own party. He warned that if Democrats keep dragging their feet, Republicans could flip the script and claim an issue long seen as their turf.

    For all his usual sarcasm, Maher’s comments carried real weight: a unenthusiastic but clear nod to Trump’s political instincts — and a warning shot to Democrats who think this base-level issue is locked up.

    Shortly after officially being sworn in as 47th President of the United States, Donald Trump issued a number of priorities he plans to enact.

    Also, while delivering remarks after being sworn in the President announced plans to rename the Gulf of Mexico the “Gulf of America.”

    MAKE AMERICA SAFE AGAIN

    • President Trump will take bold action to secure our border and protect American communities. This includes ending Biden’s catch-and-release policies, reinstating Remain in Mexico, building the wall, ending asylum for illegal border crossers, cracking down on criminal sanctuaries, and enhancing vetting and screening of aliens.
    • President Trump’s deportation operation will address the record border crossings of criminal aliens under the prior administration.
    • The President is suspending refugee resettlement, after communities were forced to house large and unsustainable populations of migrants, straining community safety and resources.
    • The Armed Forces, including the National Guard, will engage in border security, which is national security, and will be deployed to the border to assist existing law enforcement personnel.
    • President Trump will begin the process of designating cartels, including the dangerous Tren de Aragua, as foreign terrorist organizations and use the Alien Enemies Act to remove them.
    • The Department of Justice will seek the death penalty as the appropriate punishment for heinous crimes against humanity, including those who kill law enforcement officers and illegal migrants who maim and murder Americans.
       

    MAKE AMERICA AFFORDABLE AND ENERGY DOMINANT AGAIN

    • The President will unleash American energy by ending Biden’s policies of climate extremism, streamlining permitting, and reviewing for rescission all regulations that impose undue burdens on energy production and use, including mining and processing of non-fuel minerals.
    • President Trump’s energy actions empower consumer choice in vehicles, showerheads, toilets, washing machines, lightbulbs and dishwashers.
    • President Trump will declare an energy emergency and use all necessary resources to build critical infrastructure.
    • President Trump’s energy policies will end leasing to massive wind farms that degrade our natural landscapes and fail to serve American energy consumers.
    • President Trump will withdraw from the Paris Climate Accord.
    • All agencies will take emergency measures to reduce the cost of living.
    • President Trump will announce the America First Trade Policy.
    • America will no longer be beholden to foreign organizations for our national tax policy, which punishes American businesses.


    DRAIN THE SWAMP

    • The President will usher a Golden Age for America by reforming and improving the government bureaucracy to work for the American people. He will freeze bureaucrat hiring except in essential areas to end the onslaught of useless and overpaid DEI activists buried into the federal workforce. He will pause burdensome and radical regulations not yet in effect that Biden announced.
    • President Trump is announcing an unprecedented slate of executive orders for rescission.
    • President Trump is planning for improved accountability of government bureaucrats. The American people deserve the highest-quality service from people who love our country. The President will also return federal workers to work, as only 6% of employees currently work in person.
    • President Trump is taking swift action to end the weaponization of government against political rivals and ordering all document retention as required by law. President Trump is also ending the unconstitutional censorship by the federal government. No longer will government employees pick and require the erasure of entirely true speech.
    • On the President’s direction, the State Department will have an America-First foreign policy.


    BRING BACK AMERICAN VALUES

    • The President will establish male and female as biological reality and protect women from radical gender ideology.
    • American landmarks will be named to appropriately honor our Nation’s history.

    Potential Cabinet Shifts As Trump Approaches One Year Back In Office

    As President Donald Trump approaches the one-year mark of his second term, the White House is preparing for the possibility of limited Cabinet adjustments — a normal process in any administration and one that officials stress is not indicative of instability.

    Unlike Trump’s first term, which saw high turnover across many departments, the president’s current Cabinet has been deliberately steady. Senior officials say this has been intentional to reinforce continuity and reliability during the administration’s first year. While internal discussions about potential future changes have occurred, the White House maintains that no decisions have been made and no changes are expected before early next year.

    White House spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt dismissed speculation about looming resignations, saying: “The cabinet is not changing no matter how much CNN wishes that it would because it thrives off drama.”

    Department of Homeland Security: Praise for Noem, Scrutiny of Lewandowski

    One of the departments that has drawn attention is the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), led by Secretary Kristi Noem. Trump has made immigration enforcement a central focus of his second-term agenda, and DHS has been central to carrying out those policies.

    Multiple sources emphasized that the president remains pleased with Noem’s leadership. A senior White House official reiterated Trump’s confidence, saying: “The President loves Kristi. He loves the job she’s doing.”

    However, internal friction has emerged around Corey Lewandowski, a longtime Trump ally who joined DHS as a special government employee with temporary status. His close working relationship with Noem has prompted speculation that the pair might eventually depart together if changes were made.

    Lewandowski, who previously helped run Trump’s 2016 campaign, has taken an active role inside the department. Sources told CNN he has directed personnel changes, overseen administrative leave requests, and pushed senior leaders to accelerate deportation-related programs. While supporters view him as an enforcer of the administration’s priorities, others within the White House believe his management style has caused tension.

    A person close to the White House noted that concerns have been raised internally: “Yes, he likes [Noem], but it has been brought to his attention that [Lewandowski] is a problem, and the agency is being mismanaged because of it.”

    The White House and DHS pushed back strongly on that interpretation. White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson highlighted DHS’s results under Trump and Noem, saying:
    “The tremendous results coming from the Department of Homeland Security … speak for themselves.”

    A DHS spokesperson added that Lewandowski “has a reputation of reprimanding officials who impede or slow down the administration and undermine the will of the American people.”

    In September, Trump met with Noem and Lewandowski to discuss DHS operations. According to two people familiar with the meeting, the conversation became tense at times — particularly between Lewandowski and the president — though Noem’s standing with Trump was not affected.

    Department of Energy: Questions Around Secretary Chris Wright

    The Department of Energy, led by former Colorado energy executive Chris Wright, is another agency where speculation has surfaced. Sources say some White House officials believe Wright has been reluctant on certain campaign-promised initiatives and that his department has faced senior-level turnover.

    Energy Department spokeswoman Taylor Rogers defended Wright’s performance, saying:
    “Secretary Wright has been working lockstep with President Trump since day one to restore America’s energy dominance.”
    She added that U.S. oil production hit a record high in July under Trump’s policies.

    Past Discussions About Other Cabinet Members

    This is not the first time internal debate about Cabinet roles has surfaced. Earlier discussions took place around Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth after an accidental sharing of sensitive information, and Trump had expressed frustration over Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard’s stance on Iran’s nuclear capabilities. Both remained in their posts.

    An upcoming Pentagon inspector general report on Hegseth’s messaging incident could renew attention but is not expected to carry formal consequences.

    Youngkin Seen as a Potential Future Administration Pick

    With Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin leaving office in January due to term limits, several Republicans close to Trump believe he may be considered for a future Cabinet position if an opening arises. Although the two men have not directly discussed a role, Youngkin has been publicly supportive of the president.

    During a call with supporters, Youngkin told Trump:
    “Mr. President, I want to thank you… I know that you will always put America first.”

    Trump returned the praise, calling Youngkin “one of the great governors in our country.”

    Sources say Youngkin would be interested in a position with an economic or business focus, while likely avoiding an immigration-first role such as DHS.

    Routine Evolution in Any Administration

    Cabinet adjustments are not unusual. During President Biden’s term, changes occurred at the Departments of Housing and Urban Development and Labor. Trump officials emphasize that any future changes would be part of routine administrative alignment, not broader turmoil.

    President Trump is fighting to make the U.S. Census citizens-only, and he needs every patriot standing with him. ADD YOUR NAME & STAND WITH TRUMP.

    Trump Declares Biden Autopen Pardons ‘Void’

    Monday morning, President Trump said he plans to void all the last-minute pardons former President Joe Biden made using autopen.

    “The ‘Pardons’ that Sleepy Joe Biden gave to the Unselect Committee of Political Thugs, and many others, are hereby declared VOID, VACANT, AND OF NO FURTHER FORCE OR EFFECT, because of the fact that they were done by Autopen,” Trump posted on Truth Social early Monday morning.

    “In other words, Joe Biden did not sign them but, more importantly, he did not know anything about them!” he said of the oldest-ever president and concerned at his age-related mental abilities at 82.

    The 47th president also alleged that the pardons were not “approved” by his predecessor.

    “The necessary Pardoning Documents were not explained to, or approved by, Biden,” he wrote. “He knew nothing about them, and the people that did may have committed a crime.”

    Trump also warned that members of the former Jan. 6 House select committee who Biden issued pardons would be “subject to investigation at the highest level.”

    “Therefore, those on the Unselect Committee, who destroyed and deleted ALL evidence obtained during their two year Witch Hunt of me, and many other innocent people, should fully understand that they are subject to investigation at the highest level,” Trump wrote Monday.

    “The fact is, they were probably responsible for the Documents that were signed on their behalf without the knowledge or consent of the Worst President in the History of our Country, Crooked Joe Biden!”

    Biden preemptively pardoned all nine members of the Jan. 6 Committee, including the two leaders — Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) and then-Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) who later pledged to vote for then-Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2025 election,

    On the last day of his presidency, Biden issued a string of 11th-hour pardons, including preemptive pardons to Former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Milley and Dr. Anthony Fauci.

    Trump was outraged after Biden issued the preemptive pardons, blasting the move as “disgraceful” and saying, “Many are guilty of MAJOR CRIMES!”

    Despite Trump’s threat, it’s unclear whether any court will take steps to void Biden’s pardons over the autopen claims.

    Last week, The New York Post reported that Missouri’s Attorney General Andrew Bailey suggested that dozens of executive orders signed by former President Biden were authorized with identical autopen signatures, and “if true, these executive orders, pardons, and all other actions are unconstitutional and legally void.”

    “I am demanding the DOJ investigate whether President Biden’s cognitive decline allowed unelected staff to push through radical policy without his knowing approval,” Bailey said.

    Republican Senator Announces Retirement News

    Utah Senator Mitt Romney is not running for re-election.

    The longtime Trump critic unveiled the surprising announcement in a statement taking jabs at President Joe Biden as well as Donald Trump.

    “I have spent my last 25 years in public service of one kind or another. At the end of another term, I’d be in my mid-eighties. Frankly, it’s time for a new generation of leaders. They’re the ones that need to make the decisions that will shape the world they will be living in,” Romney said in a statement obtained by Fox News Digital.

    “We face critical challenges—mounting national debt, climate change, and the ambitious authoritarians of Russia and China. Neither President Biden nor former President Trump are leading their party to confront them.

    “On the deficits and debt, both men refuse to address entitlements even though they represent two thirds of federal spending. Donald Trump calls global warming a hoax and President Biden offers feel-good solutions that will make no difference to the global climate.”

    “While I’m not running for re-election, I’m not retiring from the fight. I’ll be your United States Senator until January 2025. I will keep working on these and other issues and I will advance our state’s numerous priorities. I look forward to working with you and with folks across our state and nation in that endeavor,” Romney said.

    Trump Launches Super PAC Devoted To Taking Out GOP Rep

    President Donald Trump targeted Kentucky Republican Rep. Thomas Massie (Ky.) in a blistering social media post Sunday.

    After Trump’s strike on Iran was announced, Massie was among the first to attack the move as “unconstitutional” on social media, echoing what was otherwise coming mostly from Democrats or the left.

    By Gage Skidmore from Surprise, AZ, United States of America – Thomas Massie, CC BY-SA 2.0,

    On Sunday, Trump eviscerated Massie on his Truth Social app, saying the congressman is a “pathetic loser” and “not MAGA.” Then Trump upped the attack by revealing that his massive political operation has launched a new PAC with the sole purpose of Massie’s ouster in the Kentucky primary next year.

    “Actually, MAGA doesn’t want him, doesn’t know him, and doesn’t respect him,” Trump said, a claim Trump apparently means to back up, as a short time later, Axios revealed the formation of a new Super PAC under Trump’s massive political operation that’s designed specifically to get rid of Massie in the 2026 Kentucky primary.

    The Kentucky MAGA PAC will be run by top Trump advisors Tony Fabrizio and Chris LaCivita.

    “Massie’s long-time opposition to President Trump’s working family tax cuts — and really anything to do with President Trump — is coming to an end,” LaCivita said in a statement to Axios. “Thomas ‘Little Boy’ Massie will be fired.”

    More from Axios:

    Trump’s team has launched Kentucky MAGA, a super PAC devoted to defeating Massie in the May 2026 primary.

    – The organization will be run by Trump’s senior political advisers, Tony Fabrizio and Chris LaCivita.
    – LaCivita said the PAC would spend “whatever it takes” to defeat Massie.
    – Plans for taking on Massie were in the works before the congressman decided to call Trump’s attack on Iran unconstitutional, a Trump aide said.

    Behind the curtain: Trump’s operation has been talking with potential Republican challengers to Massie.
    – Aides say the goal is to rally around one Massie opponent, so that multiple rivals don’t splinter support.

    Massie and Trump have fallen out repeatedly, and in particular, the congressman has been a vocal critic of Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill.”

    GOP Senator Warns Trump Is Headed For A Midterm ‘Disaster’ After Brutal Primary Defeat

    By

    Political representation of parties making money

    A veteran Republican senator who was just driven from office by President Donald Trump’s political machine is now warning that the president may soon regret it.

    Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas), who lost his Republican Senate primary runoff to Trump-backed Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, is predicting that Republicans could face major trouble in the 2026 midterm elections — and that Trump himself will suffer the consequences.

    In an interview with The New York Times, Cornyn said he believes the president is setting himself up for what could become “the most miserable two years of his life” if Republicans lose ground in Congress next November.

    “I think November is going to be a disaster,” Cornyn told the newspaper. “He’s going to have the most miserable two years of his life in the last two years of his term.”

    The warning comes just weeks after Paxton delivered a crushing defeat to Cornyn in the Texas GOP runoff, ending the senator’s more than two-decade Senate career. Trump endorsed Paxton late in the race, helping push the controversial attorney general to victory over one of the most senior Republicans in Washington.

    Cornyn admitted he believed Trump might stay neutral in the contest.

    “I had really thought that we’d gone on so long with no endorsement that he was just going to stay out of it,” Cornyn told the Times. “But he couldn’t resist.”

    The outgoing senator also suggested Trump’s treatment of him revealed a broader problem inside today’s Republican Party.

    “If he would do that to me, he would do that to anybody,” Cornyn said. “There’s never going to be good enough for him, other than 100 percent, slavish adherence to whatever he wants.”

    Cornyn argued that such demands run counter to the constitutional role of senators, who are supposed to provide checks and balances rather than unquestioning loyalty to any president.

    The comments mark one of the sharpest public rebukes Trump has received from a longtime Republican ally. Despite occasional disagreements, Cornyn voted with Trump’s agenda at an exceptionally high rate during the president’s first term and was widely viewed as part of Senate Republican leadership’s institutional wing.

    Trump nevertheless sided with Paxton, whom he praised as a loyal supporter of both himself and the MAGA movement. Following the runoff, Trump wrote on Truth Social that Cornyn would remain his friend and that Republicans would soon see Paxton become “a fantastic, common sense Senator.”

    Cornyn was not impressed.

    “If that’s the way friends treat you, you wonder about his enemies,” he remarked.

    A Growing Republican Concern

    Cornyn’s warning reflects concerns that have quietly surfaced among some Republicans since Paxton’s victory.

    Several GOP senators and strategists argued before the runoff that replacing Cornyn with Paxton could complicate Republican efforts to hold the seat in November. Paxton carries years of political baggage, including impeachment proceedings in Texas and numerous ethics controversies that Democrats are expected to spotlight during the general election campaign.

    According to reporting from Semafor, some Republican senators privately worried that Trump’s endorsement would make the Texas race significantly more expensive and difficult to defend, forcing the GOP to divert resources from other key battlegrounds.

    TIME magazine similarly reported that establishment Republicans viewed Cornyn as a safer candidate and feared Trump’s intervention could create an opening for Democrats in a state that has remained reliably Republican for decades.

    ABC News noted that Cornyn’s loss joins a growing list of Republican officials whose conservative credentials proved insufficient after falling out of favor with Trump.

    Looking Ahead To 2026

    Cornyn’s prediction comes as both parties begin looking toward the 2026 midterms, when control of Congress will once again be on the line.

    Historically, the president’s party often loses seats during midterm elections, particularly during a second term. Should Republicans suffer significant losses in either chamber, Trump could find himself facing congressional investigations, legislative gridlock, and renewed political battles during the final two years of his presidency.

    For now, however, Trump’s grip on the Republican base remains strong enough to reshape the party even against the wishes of many of its elected leaders.

    Cornyn’s defeat may ultimately become one of the clearest examples yet of that reality.

    The question now is whether his warning about a coming Republican “disaster” proves prophetic — or whether Trump’s political dominance continues carrying the GOP through another election cycle.
