BREAKING – Supreme Court Says Trump CANNOT Be Prosecuted For Official Acts.

The United States Supreme Court ruled Monday that former President Donald J. Trump cannot be prosecuted for official acts he ordered while in office. “The President therefore may not be prosecuted for exercising his core constitutional powers, and he is  entitled, at a minimum, to a presumptive immunity from prosecution for all his official acts,” Chief Justice John Roberts wrote for the majority in a six to three decision.

According to the majority opinion, the Court of Appeals for the D. C. Circuit’s prior ruling that Trump is not protected by presidential immunity is vacated. Chief Justice Roberts ordered the case remanded back to the lower court for additional proceedings instructed by the ruling.

“In dividing official from unofficial conduct, courts may not inquire into the President’s motives,” Roberts wrote. He continued: “Such an inquiry would risk exposing even the most obvious instances of official conduct to judicial examination on the mere allegation of improper purpose, thereby intruding on the Article II interests that immunity seeks to protect.”

The Chief Justice added further instruction for the appeals court: “Nor may courts deem an action unofficial merely because it allegedly violates a generally applicable law.”

The ruling now places the burden on Biden Department of Justice (DOJ) special counsel Jack Smith to prove that former President Trump‘s challenge to the 2020 presidential election results was outside his official capacity as the nation’s chief executive. Further, the Supreme Court ruled that Trump’s alleged personal motivations do not determine whether he acted in an official capacity or not.

Trump: Epstein Files ‘Made Up By Comey, Obama, and Biden.’

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: President Donald J. Trump said that the ‘Epstein Files’ are a Democrat hoax while fielding questions outside the White House on Tuesday.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: President Trump, Attorney General Pam Bondi, and deceased pedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Tuesday, July 15, 2025.

💬KEY QUOTE: “I would say, that you know, these files were made up by Comey, they were made up by Obama, they were made up by Biden.” — President Trump

🎯IMPACT: Trump’s approval rating has taken a hit after Bondi and the DOJ released a memo on July 7 stating that Jeffrey Epstein had no “client list” and that no foul play was involved in his death.

IN FULL

President Donald J. Trump, leaving the White House en route to an artificial intelligence (AI) summit in Pittsburgh, briefly took questions from the press pool, stating that the ‘Epstein Files’ are a hoax made up by Democrats. The Department of Justice (DOJ) has come under public criticism, especially from Trump’s America First base, for its handling of documents related to the deceased pedophile financier’s alleged sexual blackmail ring.

“She’s given us just a very quick briefing, and in terms of the credibility of the different things they’ve seen,” President Trump said regarding U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi‘s handling of the situation. He continued: “I would say that, you know, these files were made up by [former FBI Director James] Comey, they were made up by [Barack] Obama, they were made up by [Joe] Biden.”

“And we went through years of that, with the Russia-Russia-hoax, with all of the different things we had to go through, we’ve gone through years of it. But she’s handled it very well, and it’s going to be up to her. Whatever she thinks is credible, she should release.”


Notably, Trump’s approval rating has taken a hit after Bondi and the DOJ released a memo on July 7 stating that deceased pedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein had no “client list” and that no foul play was involved in his death. The memo contradicted Bondi’s statement earlier this year that such a client list was “sitting on [her] desk.”

The National Pulse reported on Monday that Lara Trump, the President’s daughter-in-law and former Republican National Committee (RNC) co-chairwoman, said she expects that more information related to Epstein’s criminal activities will be released, offering reassurance to those who believe the Trump administration is not revealing the full story.

DOGE Cancels Billions in Federal Contracts.

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) announced it has terminated federal contracts worth up to $2.8 billion, including $407 million in savings from 230 contracts cut last week.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: DOGE, established by President Donald J. Trump, along with various federal agencies such as the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Department of Labor (DOL).

📍WHEN & WHERE: Updates were shared on July 12 via DOGE’s social media and website, with actions spanning across federal agencies nationwide.

🎯IMPACT: DOGE claims its initiatives have saved $190 billion to date, equating to $1,180 per taxpayer, while the Senate debates additional spending cuts.

IN FULL

The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has revealed a significant initiative to cut federal spending, announcing that it has terminated contracts totaling as much as $2.8 billion. According to DOGE’s latest update, published on July 12, a total of 230 contracts were eliminated just last week, generating $407 million in savings.

Among the contracts recently canceled were a U.S. Department of Agriculture project described as a “Mexico sustainable landscapes consultant” and a Treasury Department program involving “mentoring, evaluation, learning specialist services in Haiti.” DOGE posted screenshots of the project descriptions on its official social media platforms to highlight examples of what it deemed unnecessary expenditures.

According to information provided on DOGE’s website, its ongoing work has resulted in estimated savings of approximately $190 billion since its inception. This figure translates to an average of $1,180 saved per taxpayer. The agency’s public database reports that around 11,700 federal contracts and 15,500 grants have been terminated to date, each category contributing roughly $44 billion in cuts. However, there have been some questions as to how legitimate some of these savings were during the period when Elon Musk fronted the agency.

As DOGE continues its cost-cutting mission, broader fiscal policy is also in focus. The U.S. Senate is preparing to vote on a proposed package of spending reductions, which includes a rescission of $9.4 billion from programs related to public broadcasting and foreign aid. President Donald J. Trump has voiced strong support for the plan, particularly targeting taxpayer funding for public media outlets.

“It is very important that all Republicans adhere to my Recissions Bill and, in particular, DEFUND THE CORPORATION FOR PUBLIC BROADCASTING (PBS and NPR), which is worse than CNN & MSDNC put together,” Trump posted on Truth Social. He has warned GOP lawmakers that failure to support the bill may cost them his endorsement.

Despite changes in leadership, including Musk‘s departure in May, who previously served as a special government employee and spokesman for the initiative, DOGE remains active.

Senator Puts Forward Bill to Halt Birthright Citizenship for ‘Anchor Babies.’

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: Senator Tom Cotton has introduced legislation to end birthright citizenship for the U.S.-born children of illegal aliens.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Senator Tom Cotton, President Donald J. Trump, Judge Joseph Laplante, and legal scholars.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The legislation was introduced on Tuesday, July 15, 2025, in the United States Senate.

💬KEY QUOTE: “There is no constitutional right for illegal aliens to cross the border to gain citizenship for their children,” said Senator Tom Cotton.

🎯IMPACT: The legislation seeks to address illegal immigration and align with Trump’s America First agenda by clarifying the scope of birthright citizenship.

IN FULL

Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) has introduced the Constitutional Citizenship Clarification Act, a bill that would end birthright citizenship for children born in the United States to illegal aliens. The legislation, introduced on Tuesday, would amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to ensure that such children are not automatically granted American citizenship.

The bill also targets the children of foreign terrorists and spies, ensuring they are not rewarded with birthright citizenship. Cotton stated, “There is no constitutional right for illegal aliens to cross the border to gain citizenship for their children. Granting birthright citizenship to illegal aliens has contributed to the highest levels of illegal immigration in history. Fixing this will help reduce the damage from Joe Biden’s catastrophic border crisis.”

Notably, the legislation supports a key part of President Donald J. Trump’s immigration agenda. The America First leader has already sought to end birthright citizenship through an Executive Order. However, that order was blocked last week by U.S. District Court Judge Joseph Laplante, who certified a class action lawsuit against the policy.

Under the law prior to Trump’s executive order, anchor babies—as they are often called—are granted citizenship despite their parents having no substantial ties to the United States. Once these children reach adulthood, they can sponsor their parents and other relatives for green cards, effectively anchoring their families in the U.S. for generations. According to the Center for Immigration Studies, an estimated 225,000 to 250,000 anchor babies were born to illegal alien parents in 2023, representing about seven percent of all births in the country that year.

While the Supreme Court has never explicitly ruled that the U.S.-born children of illegal aliens must be granted birthright citizenship, the practice does benefit from long-standing precedent, meaning legal challenges against birthright citizenship could face an uphill battle. Nevertheless, many legal scholars argue that the Citizenship Clause of the 14th Amendment does not mandate birthright citizenship for these children, as they are not subject to U.S. jurisdiction under the original understanding of the amendment.

Senate Moves Forward on Trump Cuts to Foreign Aid, NPR, and PBS.

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: The Senate is preparing to act on a White House request to rescind $9.4 billion in funding for foreign aid and government-funded broadcasting.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD), Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME), Sen. Mike Rounds (R-SD), and President Donald J. Trump, among others.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The Senate could move forward as soon as Tuesday, with a Friday deadline looming for congressional action.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Very important that all Republicans adhere to my Recissions Bill,” said President Trump on Truth Social.

🎯IMPACT: The proposal could cut foreign aid, public broadcasting funding, and programs like PEPFAR.

IN FULL

The Senate is set to move forward on a White House request to claw back $9.4 billion in funding for international aid and public broadcasting. The rescissions package, requested in June, seeks to cancel previously approved funds, including $8.3 billion for USAID and $1.1 billion for public broadcasting entities like NPR and PBS. The White House has criticized these entities for spreading “radical, woke propaganda disguised as ‘news.'” The House of Representatives already approved the package last month, despite opposition from all Democrats and four Republicans.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) indicated that procedural votes could begin Tuesday afternoon, though some Republicans remain on the fence regarding specific cuts. Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) has voiced strong objections to targeting the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). The Maine Republican argues that cutting PEPFAR would harm global health efforts, including maternal and child health programs. “I can’t imagine why we would want to terminate that program,” she said.

Other concerns have been raised about the impact on rural communities. Sen. Mike Rounds (R-SD) highlighted the importance of public broadcasting for Native American tribes and rural areas, stating that Senate Republicans are working to ensure funding for these stations is preserved. “We’re proposing changes,” Rounds said, emphasizing the need to protect local radio systems in states like South Dakota, North Dakota, Montana, and Alaska.

Conversely, President Donald J. Trump has urged Republicans to support the rescissions package, warning that those who do not back the proposal “will not have my support or Endorsement.” Meanwhile, Democrats, led by Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), have criticized the effort as “absurd” and accused Republicans of undermining bipartisan deals for partisan purposes.

With the Friday deadline approaching, Senate Republicans face a narrow majority to pass the package. Amendments to the proposal could require further approval from the House, adding to the time constraints. Thune expressed hope for progress, stating, “I’m hoping that as we get on that bill we can see some savings achieved that will complement the things we already accomplished in reconciliation.”

WATCH: Farage Reacts to Thousands of Afghans Being Imported in Secret.

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: Reform Party leader Nigel Farage has reacted to news of a secret scheme to relocate thousands of Afghans to the United Kingdom, concealed from the public for years by a so-called superinjunction.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: The British government, the Conservative (Tory) Party, the Labour Party, and Nigel Farage.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Farage discussed the scandal on July 15. The secret relocation efforts have been ongoing since 2023.

💬KEY QUOTE: “The Afghan scandal has broken. Extraordinary that a British government put a superinjunction on all the British media that lasted over two years to cover up a story of incompetence, dishonesty, and a threat to our own national security.” – Nigel Farage

🎯IMPACT: The operation has taken the cost of importing Afghans to Britain to an estimated £7 billion (~$9.4 billion), with concerns over national security and public safety.

IN FULL

Nigel Farage has reacted to the massive scandal involving the British government secretly importing thousands of Afghans to the United Kingdom, hidden from the public until now by a so-called superinjunction that gagged the British press.

The plan, initiated in 2023, aimed to bring around 25,000 Afghans to Britain, as a result of the Ministry of Defence (MOD) accidentally leaking the details of people who had applied for relocation the previous year. Notably, many of these Afghans were unvetted, or had their applications rejected—but the government decided they should be imported anyway, due to the leak potentially putting them in danger. Among those relocated were migrants with criminal backgrounds, raising serious security concerns.

“The Afghan scandal has broken. Extraordinary that a British government put a superinjunction on all the British media that lasted over two years to cover up a story of incompetence, dishonest, and a threat to our own national security,” Farage said in a video statement published on X.

“An email missent published the names of 100,000 people in Afghanistan… Many of them had helped us during that 20-year war there; others were known to us for, frankly, just being bad people… Amongst the number that have come are convicted sex offenders—I am not, I promise you, making any of this up—and the total cost of the operation’s been a staggering £7 billion,” he continued.

“Of those that came, none of them were included in the immigration figures. There has been a total veil of secrecy put upon this by the last Conservative government, and, frankly, carried on until now by the current Labour government. The numbers are off the charts, the cost is beyond comprehension, and the threat to women walking the streets of this country, frankly, is incalculable,” he added.

Notably, Afghans have the highest sex offending rate per capita of any nationality in the United Kingdom, being over 22 times more likely to be convicted than British nationals.

The British government has long sought to keep the public in the dark about Afghan relocations, refusing, for instance, to disclose how many Afghans evacuated to Britain in the immediate aftermath of the Taliban takeover in Kabul were on watchlists, on the grounds that it might cause discrimination.

California Professor Arrested for Attacking ICE Agents with Tear Gas.

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: A California professor was arrested for allegedly throwing a tear gas canister at U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents during a raid on a cannabis farm suspected of forced labor and trafficking violations.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Jonathan Anthony Caravello, a math professor at California State University Channel Islands, ICE agents, federal law enforcement, and protesters.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The raid occurred last week at Glass House Farms in Ventura County, California. Caravello appeared in court on Monday.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Professor Jonathan Caravello was not ‘kidnapped’ by federal agents. He was arrested for throwing a tear gas canister at law enforcement.” – U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli

🎯IMPACT: Over 350 illegal aliens were arrested, and 14 children were rescued from potential forced labor and trafficking. Violent clashes erupted during the raid.

IN FULL

Jonathan Anthony Caravello, a professor at California State University Channel Islands, was arrested by federal agents during a raid at Glass House Farms in Ventura County, California. The raid led to the arrest of more than 350 illegal aliens, with allegations of forced labor, exploitation, and trafficking violations involving 14 children.

According to U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli, Caravello was charged with a violation of 18 USC 111 for assaulting, resisting, or impeding a federal officer. A number of far-left activists attempted to claim that federal agents had “kidnapped” Caravello; however, Essayli revealed that the professor was arrested for throwing a tear gas canister at law enforcement.

“Professor Jonathan Caravello was not ‘kidnapped’ by federal agents. He was arrested for throwing a tear gas canister at law enforcement,” Essayli said. Caravello appeared in court on Monday and was released on a $15,000 bond.

The California Faculty Association (CFA) labor union defended Caravello, stating, “Jonathan is a deeply committed educator and mentor who showed up for their students and immigrant communities—and for that, they were targeted.”

Bodycam footage reportedly showed Caravello throwing a tear gas canister at agents and resisting arrest. He later returned to the scene in different clothes and was identified as the alleged canister thrower. The affidavit also accuses him of using a megaphone with siren sounds to disrupt the ICE operation.

The raid, which is believed to be the second-largest single-state U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) worksite operation in history, saw violent clashes between ICE agents and approximately 500 protesters. Some protesters waved Mexican flags, and one individual allegedly fired a handgun toward agents. Federal law enforcement used tear gas to disperse the crowd.

Immigration authorities are now analyzing the criminal histories of the 319 detained illegal aliens, while the rescued children, primarily from Mexico and Honduras, are in care.

Secret $9bn Unvetted Migrant Deal Revealed, With 24,000+ Offered Asylum.

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: A major data breach involving the personal details of Afghans who applied to relocate to the United Kingdom was leaked, leading to the creation of a secret relocation scheme for around 24,000 largely unvetted migrants. Some reports indicate the numbers could swell to over 100,000 if they are allowed to bring their relatives through so-called “family reunification” chain migration.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: The British Ministry of Defence (MOD), Defence Secretary John Healey, and Afghans affected by the breach.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The breach occurred in February 2022, with its existence kept secret via a so-called “superinjunction” gagging the press.

💬KEY QUOTE: “The superinjunction had the effect of completely shutting down the ordinary mechanisms of accountability which operate in a democracy.” – Mr Justice Chamberlain

🎯IMPACT: The secret scheme has relocated 4,500 Afghans to the United Kingdom so far, with many either poorly vetted or previously rejected for relocation. Another 17,000 Afghans affected by the breach have been invited via a separate scheme, with 14,000 already in the country or in transit.

IN FULL

Thousands of Afghans have been relocated to the United Kingdom under a secret government scheme following a significant data breach in February 2022, which exposed the personal details of Afghans who applied to travel to Britain. The breach occurred when a Ministry of Defence (MOD) official mistakenly e-mailed a spreadsheet containing sensitive information “outside of authorised government systems,” according to Defence Secretary John Healey.

The leaked information included names, contact details, and family information of Afghans who applied for the Afghan Relocations and Assistance Policy (ARAP) scheme, intended to help those at risk from the Taliban after the group’s takeover of Afghanistan in August 2021. The government had the courts impose a so-called superinjunction, or “gagging order,” to prevent the press from reporting the breach or the scheme to relocate Afghans impacted by it to Britain. The order was only lifted on Tuesday by High Court Judge Mr Justice Chamberlain.

The secret relocation scheme, called the Afghan Relocation Route, has so far cost £400m and is projected to cost an additional £400m to £450m (~$536m to $603m), raising the total cost of Afghan relocations to an estimated £7 billion (~$9.4 billion) over five years. It has facilitated the relocation of 4,500 Afghans to Britain so far. Of another 17,000 Afghans impacted by the breach, 14,000 have been brought to the country or are in transit under a separate scheme.

Some reports indicate the relocated Afghans will be eligible to import their relatives through “family reunification” chain migration, swelling the influx to 100,000-150,000.

Defence Secretary Healey offered a “sincere apology” for the data breach and described it as a “serious departmental error.” Notably, many of the Afghans brought to Britain under the scheme are poorly vetted or previously had their applications rejected, with the leak of their information being the only reason they are considered eligible for relocation.

In his ruling, Mr Justice Chamberlain expressed concern over the superinjunction that covered up the fiasco, stating that it created a “scrutiny vacuum” and undermined democratic accountability. He added, “The superinjunction had the effect of completely shutting down the ordinary mechanisms of accountability which operate in a democracy.” The government, under both the incumbent Labour Party and the previously governing Conservatives (Tories), had fought a two-year legal battle to try to keep the press gag in place.

The MOD has declined to confirm whether anyone has been fired or otherwise sanctioned over the scandal, with the Metropolitan Police confirming it will not ask prosecutors to bring any charges.

Big Tech Just Made a Half-Billion-Dollar Commitment to U.S. Rare Earth Minerals.

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: A $500 million investment in the Mountain Pass, California, rare earth minerals mine has been announced by Apple.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Apple, MP Materials, and the Trump administration.

📍WHEN & WHERE: July 15, 2025, in Mountain Pass, California.

💬KEY QUOTE: “This is a huge win for the President, who has the foresight to make this issue a priority.” — Senior White House official

🎯IMPACT: The agreement is a significant victory for President Donald J. Trump’s America First agenda and could signal Apple is inching away from China.

IN FULL

President Donald J. Trump has scored another major win for his America First agenda, with Apple announcing it is set to commit $500 million to developing the United States’ only current rare earth minerals mine in Mountain Pass, California, operated by MP Materials. The deal also signifies a significant commitment by the U.S. technology sector toward developing domestic supply chains, with other major Silicon Valley players expected to follow Apple’s lead.

Apple’s move comes after the company has been subject to extensive criticism over its business ties to China. Apple has been accused of investing tens of billions of dollars in developing a high-tech workforce for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

The agreement will also see Apple invest in two new recycling facilities at MP Materials’ Mountain Pass facility. These facilities will allow rare earth minerals to be re-extracted from electronics and reused in Apple products. One senior White House official told the media, “This is a huge win for the President, who has the foresight to make this issue a priority.”

Meanwhile, the Trump administration has also cleared the way for new rare earth mineral mining operations to commence. Last week, U.S. Energy Secretary Christopher Wright was in Ranchester, Wyoming, to celebrate the opening of the country’s first new rare earth mineral mine in 70 years, which will soon be operational. The Book Mine, operated by Ramaco Resources, is being billed as a key part of the continued decoupling of the U.S. from China.

Dem DA Won’t Charge Trans Sex Predator Who Tried to Abduct a Child.

A left-wing Colorado District Attorney (DA) plans to drop charges against a transgender sex offender accused of trying to abduct a child from an elementary school.

The details: Solomon Galligan, 33, a registered sex offender, was caught on surveillance video entering the playground at Black Forest Hills Elementary in Aurora in April 2024.

  • The creep tried to snatch a young child but tripped and took off running. He was later found by police.

Incompetent: After a court-ordered evaluation, Galligan was diagnosed with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder and found mentally incompetent to stand trial.

  • Galligan will instead be sent to a mental health treatment facility.

Back up: Galligan was previously placed on the sex offender registry after being convicted of non-consensual sexual contact. He’s been in and out of jail for 12 years.

Did I mention he’s trans too? Galligan began hormone treatments in 2011 and publicly identified as transgender.

Backlash: DA Amy Padden, a Democrat, has faced fierce backlash for her decision to let Galligan skirt jail time.

  • Aurora City Councilwoman Danielle Jurinsky, a Republican, is leading a recall effort, saying her “progressive attitude will not be tolerated.”

The last word goes to Solomon’s own niece, who told reporters: “This has been like the fourth time… How the hell did he get released?”

Lara Trump Says More Epstein Documents WILL Be Released.

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: Lara Trump said more disclosures on Epstein are expected and that the President is paying close attention to concerns from supporters.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Lara Trump, President Donald Trump, Attorney General Pam Bondi, podcast host Benny Johnson

📍WHEN & WHERE: United States, July 2025

💬KEY QUOTE: “He knows people are upset. And I do believe we’ll be seeing more soon.” – Lara Trump

🎯IMPACT: The comments are intended to calm calls for action as public scrutiny intensifies over Epstein-related secrecy and the Justice Department’s response.

IN FULL

Lara Trump, the daughter-in-law of President Donald J. Trump and former Republican National Committee (RNC) co-chairwoman, said Monday that more information related to deceased pedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein’s criminal activities will be released, offering reassurance to those who believe the Trump administration is not revealing the full story.

Lara Trump told podcaster Benny Johnson that President Trump is aware of the frustrations voiced by many of his supporters and Americans generally, acknowledging, “There needs to be more transparency. I think that will happen. I know this is important to the President. He is frustrated.”

“He is going to want to set things right. I believe there will be more coming, and anything they are able to release, they will try to get out. They hear it and understand it,” she continued.

“To anyone worked up out there, there is no plot to keep this information away. I’m sure we will know down the line,” she added.

The comments come amid backlash against Attorney General Pam Bondi, responsible for the Department of Justice (DOJ), which recently released dubious video footage from the jail where Epstein is supposed to have committed suicide and a memo claiming no “client list” for him exists. This is despite the fact that Bondi had claimed a client list was “on [her] desk” just a few short months ago.

America First stalwarts such as WarRoom host Stephen K. Bannon believe President Trump should appoint a special prosecutor to handle the Epstein case, with the DOJ and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) having lost the public’s trust.
