The Colorado Republican Party has pledged to move to a “pure caucus system” if the decision of the Centennial State’s Democrat-dominated Supreme Court to remove Donald Trump from the GOP primary ballot is not overturned.
The Colorado GOP was responding to a video statement by GOP candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, who pledged to withdraw from the state primary if Trump was not allowed to run.

“You won’t have to because we will withdraw from the Primary as a Party and convert to a pure caucus system if this is allowed to stand,” the Colorado GOP responded through its X account.
On Monday, the Colorado Supreme Court ruled in favor of six plaintiffs, backed by the George Soros-funded CREW organization, who said Trump should be removed from the ballot for having “engaged in insurrection or rebellion,” per the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, Section 3.
Despite every Colorado justice being appointed by a Democrat governor, many members of the court seemed hesitant to intervene against Trump so brazenly, with the decision split 4-3.
Initially, Denver District Court Judge Sarah Wallace had decided against keeping Trump off the ballot, although she did rule the 45th President had incited Jan 6.
Trump, who had not been convicted insurrection or any other Jan 6 offense, is appealing the Colorado ruling to the Supreme Court of the United States.
You won't have to because we will withdraw from the Primary as a Party and convert to a pure caucus system if this is allowed to stand.

📍 Where & When: The attack occurred on Sunday, June 1, in Boulder, Colorado, with Trump addressing it publicly on Monday.
💬 Key Quote: “Yesterday’s horrific attack in Boulder, Colorado, WILL NOT BE TOLERATED in the United States of America,” Trump stated.
⚠️ Impact: The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is investigating the attack as an “act of terror,” and the suspect faces federal hate crime charges. President Trump is pointing to the attack as further evidence that the deportation of illegal immigrants is a national security matter.
IN FULL:
President Donald J. Trump responded Monday to an anti-Semitic attack on a Jewish community demonstration demanding the release of the remaining Israeli hostages held by Hamas in Gaza. The attack in Boulder, Colorado, left eight people injured and is being investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) as an “act of terror.”
Noting that the alleged attacker, Mohamed Sabry Soliman, is an Egyptian illegal alien, the America First leader said the incident was further evidence for the need to deport dangerous and criminal illegal immigrants from the country.
“Yesterday’s horrific attack in Boulder, Colorado, WILL NOT BE TOLERATED in the United States of America,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Acts of Terrorism will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the Law. This is yet another example of why we must keep our Borders SECURE, and deport Illegal, Anti-American Radicals from our Homeland. My heart goes out to the victims of this terrible tragedy, and the Great People of Boulder, Colorado!”
Soliman, an Egyptian national who overstayed a tourist visa in 2023, allegedly used a “makeshift flamethrower” on the attack’s victims, while shouting “Free Palestine!” The demonstration was aimed at raising awareness about the remaining hostages held by Hamas. On Monday, the Department of Justice (DOJ) filed an affidavit that revealed Soliman will face federal hate crime charges along with other criminal counts.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) confirmed Monday that Soliman is in the U.S. illegally. His B2 visa expired under Joe Biden in February 2023, and his work permit, issued after applying for asylum in 2022, expired in March. Soliman has been unlawfully present in the country since that time, officials said.

❓What Happened: A study by the University of Münster reveals that nearly 20 percent of Muslim migrants in Germany may be susceptible to radicalisation.

📍 Where & When: Germany, study results released last week; border policy changes implemented in May 2025.
💬 Key Quote: Sarah Demmrich stated, “With the emotional state of resentment, we were able to uncover a new and even strong factor in radicalisation.”
⚠️ Impact: The findings suggest up to one million individuals could be vulnerable to radicalisation, amidst tightened border controls and migration policy reforms in Germany.
IN FULL:
A new study conducted by the University of Münster’s Research Centre for Islamic Theology has found that nearly 20 percent of Muslim migrants in Germany could be vulnerable to radicalisation. The survey, which included almost 1,900 participants with a migration background, highlighted strong anti-Western and anti-Semitic sentiments, as well as resentment toward German politics and societal norms.
The term “migration background” in Germany refers to both first-generation migrants and their descendants. With over 5.5 million Muslims in this category nationwide, the findings suggest that up to one million individuals could be at risk of radicalisation. Researchers also noted that a third of those identified as vulnerable expressed support for violence in response to perceived injustices against Muslims. Additionally, many respondents viewed Islamic Sharia law as superior to German law and expressed a desire for Islam to be the dominant political authority in Germany.
Sarah Demmrich, a religious psychologist involved in the study, explained to German outlet NOZ that “resentment” was identified as a significant factor in the radicalisation process. The researchers found that the clash between Germany’s more liberal Western cultural norms and the strict religious beliefs of Muslim migrants is a primary driver of the sort of resentment that fuels radicalization. “The capacity for criticism within Islam must be strengthened in order to promote reflective debates on religious and social issues,” Demmrich contends.
This research comes as Germany implements somewhat stricter migration controls under newly elected Chancellor Friedrich Merz. Merz has rescinded the open-border policies introduced by former Chancellor Angela Merkel, a fellow member of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) party, in 2015. Under the new rules, illegal migrants, except for children and pregnant women, are being turned away at Germany’s borders. Merz has also initiated measures to deport Syrian migrants following the collapse of Bashar al-Assad’s regime last year.
Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt has announced a significant expansion of border enforcement, increasing personnel by 3,000 to a total of 14,000 officers. Speaking on the new measures, Dobrindt stated, “We want to take stronger steps against illegal immigration… The numbers remain significantly too high.”
Merz has defended the policy shift, asserting that the European Union (EU) must send a clear message to deter illegal immigration and disrupt smuggling networks. Recent attacks in Germany, including a fatal stabbing in Bavaria last December, have intensified public focus on migration and security issues.

📍 Where & When: Miller was arrested in Serbia and was indicted on May 29.
💬 Key Quote: “The defendants allegedly plotted to harass and interfere with an individual who criticised the actions of the People’s Republic of China while exercising their constitutionally protected free speech rights within the United States of America. The same individuals are also charged with trying to obtain and export sensitive U.S. military technology to China.” — Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino.
⚠️ Impact: Miller and Cui face up to 40 years in prison.
IN FULL:
A Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) sting has led to the arrest of a 63-year-old British businessman, accused of trying to acquire military equipment for Communist China. John Miller was arrested in Serbia and faces being extradited to the United States after conversing with undercover FBI agents and trying to purchase sensitive military equipment from them.
According to court documents filed at the Eastern District Court of Wisconsin, Miller, a recruiter from Kent, England, reportedly tried to purchase military hardware in the United States on behalf of China’s People’s Liberation Army (PLA).
Among the hardware Miller tried to purchase for the PLA were missile launchers, small Black Hornet micro drones, and air defence radar systems. He also attempted to secure National Security Agency (NSA) approved devices for secure communications.
According to the FBI, Miller was in contact with a Chinese national named Cui Guangha, who lives in the U.S. Both men face up to 40 years in prison. The FBI also states that Miller told undercover agents that the Chinese intended to reverse engineer the hardware and, at one point, called President Xi Jinping the “boss.”
Miller and Cui are also accused of staging a protest during a visit to the U.S. by Taiwan’s president and of harassing a Chinese-American anti-CCP artist, which included putting tracking devices on the artist’s vehicle and trying to stop them from protesting a visit from President Xi in San Francisco in 2023.
“The defendants allegedly plotted to harass and interfere with an individual who criticised the actions of the People’s Republic of China while exercising their constitutionally protected free speech rights within the United States of America. The same individuals are also charged with trying to obtain and export sensitive U.S. military technology to China,” Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino said.
❓What Happened: Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director Kash Patel is remaking the bureau from the inside out, purging entrenched bureaucrats, reviving stalled investigations, and imposing long-overdue discipline on an agency many Americans see as corrupted beyond recognition.

🧾Key Quote: “The Director and I will have most of our incoming reform teams in place by next week,” Bongino announced.
⚠️Fallout: Critics complain of lost institutional memory, but supporters say the deep state is finally being dismantled.
📌Significance: Patel’s efforts reflect the America First movement’s demand to defang the FBI’s politicized machinery, restore public trust, and refocus the bureau on real threats to national security.
IN FULL:
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is undergoing its most radical transformation in decades under Director Kash Patel. Nominated by President Donald J. Trump, Patel has been rapidly expelling entrenched operatives and retooling the bureau’s mission around law enforcement, not political activism.
In his book Government Gangsters, Patel declared that the FBI’s leadership had become so compromised that it posed a threat to the American people, calling for “drastic measures.” Now, those measures are being implemented: Polygraph tests are being administered across the bureau to plug leaks to the anti-Trump media. Top agents tied to politically charged investigations—many of whom stonewalled oversight or clashed with Trump-era initiatives—have been demoted, reassigned, or retired altogether. Deputy Director Dan Bongino states new leadership teams are nearly fully installed, with more changes imminent.
While Patel’s critics claim the changes are robbing the law enforcement agency of institutional memory, his supporters say achieving a fundamental shift is the reform’s primary purpose. Years of scandal—targeting Catholic parishes, surveilling parents at school board meetings, burying the Hunter Biden laptop story, and promoting Russiagate disinformation—left the bureau unmoored from its core mission.
The Washington field office’s public corruption squad—once the engine behind investigations targeting Trump and his allies—has been disbanded. Field offices nationwide are seeing leadership turnover, with new blood brought in to re-center the FBI on law enforcement. To fill key posts, Patel is bypassing the usual ladder-climbing bureaucracy, promoting from outside the agency and the broader D.C. bubble, even bringing back retired agents to run critical divisions.
Notably, the FBI is also revisiting unresolved investigations that have lingered without explanation under previous leadership. For instance, Bongino confirmed the bureau is re-examining a 2022 Supreme Court leak, the unsolved pipe bombs from January 6, and the infamous bag of cocaine found in the Biden White House.
Behind the scenes, some agents and analysts are retiring rather than adapt to the new accountability standards. One of Patel’s most controversial but effective tools has been the expanded use of polygraphs to identify leakers and root out political operatives embedded in the agency. Critics, including former FBI staff, say this breaks from precedent. Supporters call it long-overdue discipline for an agency that spent years leaking to CNN and ignoring real crimes to pursue partisan politics.

❓What Happened: Federal spending records show U.S. taxpayers will fund nearly $1 million in June alone for congressional travel to Ukraine, with millions more allocated for State Department staff and logistics.

⚠️Fallout: The spending raises concerns that Americans are footing the bill for congressional junkets that promote prolonged involvement in Ukraine’s war—while the conflict escalates dangerously, including a Ukrainian strike on Russian nuclear bombers.
📌Significance: The revelation fuels growing criticism that Congress is using taxpayer money to stage foreign trips supporting forever wars abroad, even as experts warn of rising nuclear risk.
IN FULL:
U.S federal government spending data reveals that the contracts to provide accommodations, transportation, and security for Congressional delegations traveling to Ukraine will cost American taxpayers nearly $1 million, at least, in the month of June. According to USASpending.gov—the federal government’s official website for tracking expenditure—the U.S Department of State entered into two contracts with an entity called International-Business Center Tov, a for-profit company that provides logistical and accommodation services for American lawmakers and other government officials.
In addition to the two contracts to source accommodations, transportation, and security for U.S. congressional delegations, the State Department will pay out at least another $4 million to International-Business Center Tov to source housing and provide other logistical services for its employees and other federal agency staff stationed in Ukraine. In 2024, the U.S. federal government paid out $7.3 million to the company, with $3.6 million paid in 2023. Meanwhile, a total of $5.2 million will be paid to International-Business Center Tov in 2025.
While it is routine for the State Department to contract with companies to source housing, hotel accommodations, transportation, and security for its overseas staff and official U.S. government delegations, the spending does raise concerns that taxpayer dollars are essentially subsidizing efforts by some members of Congress who wish to prolong Ukraine’s war with Russia. Congressional delegations (CODELs) are often sent to countries to conduct oversight of treaty obligations and U.S. government facilities; however, travel to Ukraine has been used by lawmakers like Senators Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) to actively push for continued war and additional American military aid.
Notably, both Graham and Blumenthal traveled to Ukraine on May 31 to meet with the country’s president, Volodymyr Zelensky, and other government and military officials. The next day, Ukraine launched an unprecedented drone strike operation targeting four military airbases deep inside Russia, reportedly damaging nuclear-capable strategic bombers and nuclear early warning aircraft. While Ukraine’s daring military operation appears to have been a success, experts warn it could significantly escalate Russia’s willingness to deploy nuclear weapons.

🧾Key Quote: “This decision is wrong. It revives a blasphemy law that Parliament repealed,” said Robert Jenrick, Shadow Justice Secretary.
⚠️Fallout: Coskun’s conviction under the Public Order Act for “religiously aggravated disorderly conduct” drew sharp criticism from civil liberties groups and sparked plans for a legal appeal, potentially reaching the European Court of Human Rights.
📌Significance: The case underscores growing concerns over free speech in the United Kingdom, where critics argue religious sensitivities are being prioritized over basic protest rights—particularly when it comes to Islam.
IN FULL:
A British court has found 50-year-old atheist Hamit Coskun guilty of a “religiously aggravated public order offence” after he publicly burned a copy of the Quran during a political protest in central London. Coskun, an Armenian-Kurdish asylum seeker who fled Turkey citing persecution, was convicted on Monday at Westminster Magistrates’ Court after a one-day trial.
The February 13 demonstration took place outside the Turkish consulate in Knightsbridge, where Coskun shouted “Islam is religion of terrorism” and “F**k Islam” while holding the burning Islamic text over his head. Moments later, he was violently attacked by a passerby who appeared to slash at him with a blade and kicked him to the ground. That man is due to stand trial in 2027.
Despite claims from the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) that Coskun was not prosecuted for destroying the book in itself, but for the “disorderly” nature of burning the book, the case has reignited a fierce debate over whether the United Kingdom is reintroducing blasphemy laws by stealth. Initially, Coskun was charged with harassing the “religious institution of Islam,” with the charges being revised after public outcry.
Judge John McGarva acknowledged flaws in the original CPS charge, which referred to Islam “as if it was a person,” but upheld the revised charge. He rejected arguments from Coskun’s defense team that his protest was aimed at criticizing a religion, not its followers, and therefore protected speech.
“You don’t distinguish between the two,” McGarva insisted during sentencing. “I find you have a deep-seated hatred of Islam and its followers.”
Coskun was fined £240 (~$325) and is currently in hiding.
The Free Speech Union (FSU) and the National Secular Society (NSS), both of which funded Coskun’s defense, condemned the ruling and announced plans to appeal. “This is deeply disappointing,” the FSU said in a statement. “Religious tolerance doesn’t require non-believers to respect the blasphemy codes of believers.”
Robert Jenrick, Shadow Justice Secretary and former immigration minister, said the court’s decision “revives a blasphemy law that Parliament repealed,” adding: “Free speech is under threat. I have no confidence in Two-Tier Keir [Starmer] to defend the rights of the public to criticise all religions.”
The United Kingdom repealed its last formal blasphemy statutes in 2008, but recent prosecutions under the Public Order Act—particularly those involving Islam—have alarmed critics who argue religious protections are being selectively enforced.
Coskun, who had fled Turkey under President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s Islamist regime, testified that his protest was a direct response to government oppression in his home country. His lawyer, Katy Thorne KC, said the ruling effectively criminalizes any public burning of a religious book, regardless of motive or message, warning that it “chills the right of citizens to criticise religion.”
The FSU has pledged to appeal the ruling all the way to the European Court of Human Rights if necessary.

💬 Key Quote: “The ‘office’ of our operation on Russian territory was located right next to the FSB of Russia in one of their regions,” boasted Zelensky.
⚠️ Impact: Ukraine estimates $7 billion in damage to Russian aviation assets, while Russia reports multiple aircraft fires but claims all attacks were repelled.
IN FULL:
Ukraine has claimed responsibility for its largest long-range drone strike against Russia since their conflict began, targeting four military airbases deep inside Russia and reportedly damaging nuclear-capable strategic bombers and nuclear early warning aircraft. The operation, dubbed “Spider’s Web,” was carried out by Ukraine’s SBU security service and involved 117 drones, according to President Volodymyr Zelensky.
The strikes, which Ukraine says took a year and a half to prepare, used drones smuggled into Russia and concealed in wooden cabins mounted on civilian trucks. These mobile launch platforms were positioned near Russian airbases, and the drones were deployed remotely. Among the targeted sites were airbases in the Irkutsk, Murmansk, Ryazan, and Ivanovo regions, with some locations thousands of miles from Ukraine.
Zelensky described the operation as “absolutely brilliant,” boasting that “the ‘office’ of our operation on Russian territory was located right next to the [Federal Security Service] of Russia in one of their regions.” He said that all Ukrainian personnel involved in the operation were safely evacuated before the strikes. The SBU estimates the damage to Russian aviation at approximately $7 billion, though these claims remain unverified.

Russia’s defense ministry acknowledged attacks on airbases in five regions, labeling them “terrorist acts.” While it claimed all attacks on military sites in Ivanovo, Ryazan, and Amur regions were repelled, it admitted that several aircraft caught fire in Murmansk and Irkutsk. Russian authorities claim that some suspects connected to the attacks have been detained.
Irkutsk Governor Igor Kobzev confirmed that drones were launched from a truck in the region, adding that the launch site had been secured. Russian media similarly reported that drones emerged from vehicles, with footage showing them flying out of a Kamaz truck near a petrol station.
Meanwhile, Ukraine reported a massive Russian drone and missile assault on its own territory, claiming to have neutralized 385 aerial targets out of 472 launched. This marks one of the largest single Russian drone offensives to date.
Experts warn that the “Pearl Harbor” moment could significantly escalate Russia’s willingness to deploy nuclear weapons. Dr. Stephen Hall, a lecturer at Bath University, noted that Russia’s 2024 nuclear doctrine notes that attacks on military infrastructure within Russia, which disrupt nuclear response actions, could be met with a nuclear response.

🧾Key Quote: ICE sources say the operation was launched in direct response to Massachusetts and Boston’s sanctuary policies, which have obstructed ICE enforcement and led to increased collateral arrests.
⚠️Fallout: Of those arrested, 790 had criminal convictions or pending charges, while 277 had final deportation orders; local jurisdictions refused cooperation, and activists reportedly interfere with arrests on a near-daily basis.
📌Significance: The operation exposes the dangerous consequences of sanctuary policies, as ICE is forced to apprehend violent criminals on the streets rather than in jails—putting public safety and agents at greater risk.
IN FULL:
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has executed its most expansive enforcement operation to date, arresting 1,461 illegal aliens across Massachusetts during a month-long sweep dubbed “Operation Patriot.” Agency sources confirmed that the operation, which concluded on Saturday, specifically targeted the state due to its aggressive sanctuary city policies—particularly those in Boston, where ICE detainers have been systematically ignored.
Of those arrested, 790 individuals had criminal convictions or open charges, while 277 had final deportation orders that had not been carried out due to a lack of local cooperation. Hundreds had previously been released from custody by sanctuary jurisdictions despite active ICE detainers.
The scale and complexity of the mission surpassed Operation Tidal Wave, which took place in Florida and previously held the record for the largest ICE enforcement action with 1,120 arrests.
“ICE has repeatedly warned that sanctuary policies will lead to collateral arrests,” a source said, referencing the fact that agents are often forced to arrest not just the primary target but others illegally present at the scene. The agency has stressed that such policies force enforcement into public neighborhoods rather than allowing for controlled transfers at local jails.
FOX News embedded with one of the 19 ICE teams operating across the state last Thursday. In just a few hours, agents arrested an international murderer, two child rapists—one of whom was living adjacent to a playground—a fentanyl trafficker, an adult rapist, and a child sexual assaulter. All of them had been residing freely within Massachusetts communities.

💬 Key Quote: “My Poland is a Poland without illegal migrants… where, instead of integration centers, there are deportation centers.” — Nawrocki.
⚠️ Impact: Nawrocki’s presidency will strengthen Poland’s conservatives, despite losing control of the legislature in late 2023, and challenge the agenda of the EU and Prime Minister Tusk, a former President of the European Council.
IN FULL:
Karol Nawrocki, the Law and Justice (PiS) Party-aligned center right candidate in the Polish presidential elections, has defeated Warsaw mayor Rafał Trzaskowski, aligned with Prime Minister Donald Tusk’s globalist government. Nawrocki, 42, defeated Trzaskowski, 53, 50.89 to 49.11 percent. Trzaskowski prematurely declared victory after initial exit polls projected he would win the contest, only for late polls to reverse the candidates’ fortunes.
Nawrocki’s triumph is a body blow to Prime Minister Tusk, a former European Union (EU) president, who ousted Law and Justice at the head of an unwieldy coalition of globalist and left-wing parties in legislative elections at the end of 2023. Despite this victory, Tusk’s freedom of action had been limited by the outgoing conservative president, Andrzej Duda, wielding veto and pardon powers. Now, with another conservative candidate replacing Duda, the presidency will continue to constrain Tusk’s government for the remainder of its term.
Nawrocki is a colorful character. As a younger man, he participated in a prearranged brawl in a forest—which he described as “noble combat”—between two roughly 70-strong groups of soccer hooligans. He also pursued a career as a boxer, winning national tournaments, before switching career paths and earning a doctorate as a historian.
Currently, he is President of the Institute of National Remembrance and Commission for the Prosecution of Crimes Against the Polish Nation, commemorating and investigating the crimes of the former Nazi and Communist occupation regimes. Contrary to insinuations from politicians such as Tusk that he is a Kremlin stooge, Nawrocki has had a Russian arrest warrant issued against him for his role in demolishing Soviet monuments in Poland.
Trzaskowski is unlikely to make another bid for the presidency now, with his failed run against Nawrocki following a failed attempt to unseat Duda, who is term-limited, in 2020.

📍 Where & When: United States; Gallup poll released Thursday, May 29, 2025.
⚠️ Impact: The poll reflects a growing partisan divide on gay marriage and related moral issues, with implications for future legal challenges and cultural debates.
IN FULL:
Support among Republicans for same-sex marriage has dropped sharply over the past three years, according to a new Gallup poll released Thursday. The survey found that just 41 percent of GOP voters now back the legalization of gay marriage, a significant decline from 55 percent in 2021 and 2022.
In contrast, 88 percent of Democrats expressed approval for same-sex marriage, marking a 47-point gap between the two parties—the largest divide recorded since Gallup began polling on the issue in 1996. Among independents, 76 percent voiced support for gay marriage.
Historical data from Gallup shows that in 1996, only 16 percent of Republicans, 33 percent of Democrats, and 32 percent of independents supported the legalization of same-sex unions.
The new poll also highlighted differences in moral perceptions of gay and lesbian relationships. While 86 percent of Democrats said such relationships are morally acceptable, only 38 percent of Republicans agreed—a sharp drop from 56 percent in 2022. Among Americans who attend religious services weekly, 33 percent found same-sex marriage morally acceptable, with only 24 percent deeming gay and lesbian relationships socially acceptable.
The issue of same-sex marriage has also been revisited in legal debates. Justice Clarence Thomas, in his concurring opinion in the 2022 Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision, called for reconsideration of substantive due process precedents, including Obergefell v. Hodges, the 2015 case that established a constitutional right to gay marriage.
Thomas argued that the legal principle of substantive due process, which has been used to protect unenumerated rights like privacy and same-sex marriage, lacks constitutional grounding. He described it as “an oxymoron that lack[s] any basis in the Constitution,” and emphasized that such decisions should be revisited to determine whether other constitutional provisions might support the rights they claim to protect.
“Substantive due process exalts judges at the expense of the People from whom they derive their authority,” Thomas wrote, adding that it has led to “constitutionally unmoored policy judgments.”
