Federal authorities are showing they won't tolerate taxpayer dollars being stolen or misused. The crackdown on fraud and preferential treatment for illegal aliens is just getting started. | Check out all the latest developments and more below! | | | | | ✈️ Trump Calls for Netanyahu to be Pardoned
President Trump renewed his call for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to receive a pardon while standing alongside the prime minister at Mar-a-Lago. Trump told reporters Netanyahu is a wartime prime minister and a hero, saying it would be very hard not to grant a pardon for corruption charges Netanyahu is fighting in an ongoing trial. Trump claimed he spoke with Israeli President Isaac Herzog, who told him a pardon was on its way, but Herzog's office quickly denied that any decision had been made. Herzog's office said the Israeli president had not communicated with Trump since November when Trump formally requested a pardon for Netanyahu on his behalf. Trump's November letter to Herzog called Netanyahu's trial a political, unjustified prosecution and urged Herzog to let Netanyahu unite Israel by pardoning him and ending the lawfare. | ⚖️ Trump Sues Virginia Over Migrant Tuition Benefits
The Department of Justice filed suit against Virginia over a state law providing illegal migrants with in-state tuition and state financial assistance for colleges and universities. The DOJ argues that federal law prohibits states from providing aliens who are not lawfully present with any postsecondary education benefit that is denied to U.S. citizens. Virginia's law classifies illegal aliens as state residents under certain conditions, making them eligible for reduced in-state tuition while U.S. citizens from other states must pay higher out-of-state rates. The Trump administration previously filed similar lawsuits against Texas, Kentucky, Oklahoma, Illinois, and California, with Texas, Kentucky, and Oklahoma agreeing to end in-state tuition for illegal aliens. The Department of Education announced earlier it would end taxpayer subsidization of career, technical, and adult education programs for illegal immigrants, rescinding Clinton-era standards that violated federal law. | 🔥 Trump Supports Growing Iran Protests
Anti-regime protests spread across Iran entering a third consecutive day as President Trump and administration officials voiced support for demonstrators. Trump pointed to Iran's economic collapse and long-standing public discontent, noting that every time Iranians form protest groups, the regime starts shooting people, describing Iran's leadership as vicious. U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz declared that the people of Iran want freedom and that Washington stands with Iranians in the streets as they protest a radical regime that has brought them economic downturn and war. The Iranian rial collapsed to roughly 1.45 million per U.S. dollar on the open market, triggering strikes and demonstrations centered on Tehran's Grand Bazaar that spread to other major cities. Opposition reports described widespread strikes and student protests across Tehran and multiple provincial cities, with videos showing chants in support of Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi and protests forcing security forces to retreat from Tehran's Jomhouri Street. | 💬 Trump Kennedy Center Rebrand Sparks Cancellations
Multiple performers canceled upcoming shows at the Kennedy Center following the White House announcement that President Trump's name would be added to the performing arts institution. The Cookers, a jazz septet, canceled two New Year's Eve shows at the Kennedy Center's Terrace Theater, citing jazz's history of freedom of thought and expression in their withdrawal statement. Doug Varone and Dancers also unveiled plans that the New York dance company would no longer perform in shows originally scheduled for April. Kennedy Center President Richard Grenell said the canceling artists were booked under the previous far left leadership, arguing their actions prove the previous team was more concerned about booking political activists rather than artists willing to perform for everyone regardless of political beliefs. The Kennedy Center's board voted unanimously to rename the institution the "Trump–Kennedy Center" with Trump's name added to the exterior and the website header updated accordingly. |

| | | | | | 🔔 Trump Crackdown on Minnesota Fraud 🔔 | President Trump's administration is freezing federal child care payments to Minnesota following mounting evidence of massive fraud by Somali-owned daycare centers. Jim O'Neil, deputy secretary at the Department of Health and Human Services, declared in an X video that the administration is committed to holding bad actors accountable and that anyone involved in defrauding the American people should expect prosecution. | The freeze aims to force legitimate operators in Minnesota to demand state investigations into the apparently widespread fraud hidden within the state's Somali immigrant community. Alex Abrams, assistant secretary at the Administration for Children and Families, revealed that his office provides Minnesota $185 million annually in child care funds meant to help 19,000 American children, including toddlers and infants. Abrams said he spoke directly with Minnesota's Child Care Services director, who could not confirm with confidence whether fraud allegations were isolated or stretched statewide. | Independent journalist Nick Shirley's viral video showing empty daycare centers triggered national attention to the scandal. Shirley's reporting documented facilities supposedly serving dozens of children but appearing completely vacant during business hours. The notorious Quality "Learing" Center in Minneapolis became a focal point after Shirley's investigation showed the facility had misspelled "learning" on its sign and appeared to have no children present despite claiming to serve 99 kids. | After the video went viral with over 127 million views, the facility was suddenly bustling with children, with one local resident telling reporters they had never seen kids go in there until that day. The daycare's 26-year-old manager, Ibrahim Ali, blamed the spelling error on a graphic designer and claimed Shirley visited before opening hours, though the facility lists its hours as 2:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. and Shirley's visit occurred within those times. | The Trump administration activated its "Defend the Spend" accounting system for all child care payments across America, requiring justification receipts and photo evidence before payments are made. O'Neil sent a demand letter to Governor Tim Walz requiring a full 360-degree review of daycare centers, including attendance records, licenses, complaints, investigations, and inspections. | Attorney General Pam Bondi announced that 85 Somalian nationals have been charged in the ongoing fraud investigation, with more than 60 already found guilty in court, and warned that more prosecutions are coming. FBI Director Kash Patel stated the agency had surged personnel and investigative resources to Minnesota to dismantle large-scale fraud schemes exploiting federal programs even before public conversation escalated online. | The administration's actions have exposed how Democrats suppressed public recognition of mass fraud by their political allies for years until citizen journalists brought the truth to light. The freeze sends an unmistakable message to other states: federal authorities will no longer tolerate taxpayer money being stolen through fraudulent operations protected by political correctness. Legitimate child care operators and American families are the victims of this fraud, losing dollars that should have gone to actual childcare services. The scandal reveals the consequences of mass migration policies that created ethnic enclaves where corrupt practices can flourish away from proper oversight. | | | | | | 🍟 Quick Bite News 🍟 | ✈️ Mali and Burkina Faso issued simultaneous bans on American citizens in response to the Trump administration's December 16 expansion of travel restrictions to more than 20 countries. Both West African nations are currently ruled by military juntas that came to power amidst rising violence from Islamist terrorist groups and have deepened relationships with Russia, which has pledged assistance in fighting rebels. Both governments cited the principle of reciprocity, with Mali's Ministry of Foreign Affairs stating it will apply the same conditions and requirements to U.S. nationals as those imposed on Malian citizens. | 💰 More than 700 rural hospitals are at risk of closure as Trump's "big beautiful bill" seeks to strengthen rural healthcare providers facing chronic financial challenges that threaten their ability to serve communities. Rural hospitals struggle with limited patient volumes, lower reimbursement rates, and difficulty recruiting medical staff compared to urban facilities. The legislation aims to provide targeted support and resources to prevent widespread closures that would leave rural Americans traveling hours for critical medical services. | 🏛 New York Governor Kathy Hochul reached an agreement with the state legislature to sign an assisted suicide bill, making New York one of the latest states to legalize physician-assisted death. The Democratic governor's decision follows extended negotiations with state lawmakers over provisions in the controversial end-of-life legislation. New York joins approximately a dozen other states that have legalized some form of medical aid in dying for terminally ill patients. | 💬 Elon Musk dubbed Minnesota Governor Tim Walz "Traitor Tim" on X amid federal investigations into widespread fraud in the state's social services system. The SpaceX CEO's comment responded to a social media post noting that Walz raised taxes, burned through billions in state surplus, and now faces scrutiny over multiple fraud schemes targeting Medicaid and federally funded children's nutrition programs. Federal authorities have charged 85 Somalian nationals in the ongoing investigation, with more than 60 already found guilty in court. | 🎬 George Clooney called Trump a "big goofball" when discussing the president's pre-political career in entertainment and business. The Hollywood actor made the remarks while reflecting on Trump's transition from celebrity businessman to political figure. France has granted citizenship to Clooney and his wife, the human rights lawyer Amal, according to government decrees issued over the weekend. | God bless,
