Britain’s new Labour government will begin the process of reversing Brexit with a deal to partially restore the so-called Free Movement migration regime, with European Union (EU) citizens under 30 becoming free to work, study, and volunteer in the United Kingdom for up to three years. In practice, the Free Movement of Labor in the EU is not only for workers. For instance, judges ruled EU migrants could not be deported for turning up and becoming beggars.
“If we are serious about resetting relations with the EU, then we need to be prepared to give them some of the things that they want,” said a Labour government source. Britain has already repeatedly given way to EU demands on British payments into the EU budget, EU access to British fisheries, continued EU control over Northern Ireland, and more.

“We do not need to do anything,” gloated another EU source, saying they “see the current arrangements”—negotiated to the EU’s advantage, largely by anti-Brexit former prime minister Theresa May—as “quite satisfactory.”
“Our understanding is that it is the UK which wants to benefit from some closer relationships. Here we, as is standard with any trading partner, have some well-known offensive interests in terms of gaining in return,” they threatened. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, an anti-Brexit politician who lobbied for a redo of the first Brexit referendum, is unlikely to drive a hard bargain with the EU despite claiming he will not try to return Britain to the bloc’s control.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The firing was announced in a letter to Cook, following a criminal referral dated August 15, 2025.
💬KEY QUOTE: “The American people must be able to have full confidence in the honesty of the members entrusted with setting policy and overseeing the Federal Reserve.” – Donald Trump
🎯IMPACT: The decision raises questions about the integrity and trustworthiness of financial regulators.
IN FULL
President Trump has taken decisive action by removing Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook from her position. This move comes after Bill Pulte exposed Cook for alleged mortgage fraud, leading to a criminal referral.
Lisa Cook, who was appointed by President Biden in 2022, is accused of making false statements on mortgage agreements. Specifically, she is alleged to have signed documents for two properties, each claiming to be her primary residence for the coming year, which is deemed impossible.
In a letter addressed to Cook, President Trump cited his constitutional authority and the Federal Reserve Act to justify her removal. He emphasized the necessity for integrity and honesty in financial regulators, particularly those involved in setting interest rates and overseeing banks.
The allegations against Cook include signing a document for a property in Michigan, followed by another for a property in Georgia, both within a two-week period. This conduct has been described as deceitful and potentially criminal, casting doubt on her competence and trustworthiness.
The Federal Reserve plays a critical role in the U.S. economy, and the integrity of its members is paramount. President Trump’s decision underscores the importance of maintaining public confidence in the institution’s leadership.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: President Donald J. Trump, Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA), and Democratic senators opposing nominees.
📍WHEN & WHERE: August 25, during an Oval Office signing ceremony at the White House.
💬KEY QUOTE: “Blue slips make it impossible for me as President to appoint a judge or a U.S. attorney because they have a gentlemen’s agreement that’s about 100 years old.” – Donald Trump
🎯IMPACT: The lawsuit aims to challenge a Senate tradition that has delayed the confirmation of Trump’s judicial and prosecutorial nominees.
IN FULL
President Donald J. Trump told reporters in the Oval Office on August 25 that he plans to file a lawsuit over the Senate’s long-standing “blue slip” tradition, a procedural custom that allows home-state senators to block certain judicial and prosecutorial nominees in the areas they represent. The century-old practice, used by the Senate Judiciary Committee, often stalls the nomination process when one or both home-state senators decline to return their blue slips, a signal of approval for moving forward with the nominee.
The America First leader made the announcement at the White House, where he signed an executive order targeting cashless bail policies. “We’re also going to be filing a lawsuit on blue slipping,” Trump said. “You know, blue slips make it impossible for me as president to appoint a judge or a U.S. attorney because they have a gentlemen’s agreement that’s about 100 years old.”
Trump’s frustration with the Senate’s slow pace in confirming his nominees has been mounting, especially in light of recent judicial setbacks. U.S. District Judge James Boasberg, who currently serves as the chief judge of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, has issued multiple rulings in recent months that have thwarted important elements of the Trump administration’s agenda. Boasberg notably ruled against key executive actions on immigration enforcement and environmental deregulation, decisions that the White House has sharply criticized as judicial overreach.
President Trump recently had to withdraw his nominee for U.S. Attorney for New Jersey, Alina Habba, after both Democratic senators from the state withheld their blue slips, effectively blocking her confirmation.
Trump also took aim at Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) over the weekend for refusing to discard the blue slip tradition and push through his nominees. “Chuck Grassley should allow strong Republican candidates to ascend to these very vital and powerful roles, and tell the Democrats, as they often tell us, to go to HELL!” he posted on Truth Social.
❓WHAT HAPPENED: The Protect Our Communities from DUIs Act seeks to amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to make noncitizens convicted of or admitting to driving under the influence offenses deportable.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: The bill was introduced by Representative Barry Moore (R-AL) and has Senate sponsorship from Senator Bill Hagerty (R-TN), with support from multiple Republican senators.
📍WHEN & WHERE: Initially introduced in January, the bill passed the House in June and is now under Senate consideration.
💬KEY QUOTE: “A DUI could get green card holders deported, even from ten years ago! If it becomes law, anyone who is not a U.S. citizen—be they green card holders, international students, or H-1B workers—could become inadmissible [for citizenship] and deportable for having a DUI on record,” complained immigration attorney Joseph Tsang.
🎯IMPACT: The bill could affect green card holders, foreign students, and visa holders with past DUI records, potentially making them inadmissible for citizenship and deportable.
IN FULL
The Protect Our Communities from DUIs Act could revise the Immigration and Nationality Act to classify noncitizens, regardless of immigration status, as potentially deportable if they are convicted of or admit to driving under the influence (DUI)-related offenses. This provision would apply to illegal immigrants, lawful permanent residents, and green card holders.
Initially introduced in the House in January by Representative Barry Moore (R-AL) as H.R.6976, the legislation now awaits consideration in the Senate after passing the House in June. Senator Bill Hagerty (R-TN) introduced a companion version in the Senate, with backing from several Republican senators, including Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), Katie Britt (R-AL), and Tom Cotton (R-AR). Its sponsors frame the bill as a public safety initiative to deter DUI offenses among noncitizens and enhance immigration enforcement.
Supporters argue the measure strengthens the standards of moral character required for U.S. citizenship. Immigration advocates disagree, with immigration attorney Joseph Tsang complaining, “A DUI could get green card holders deported, even from ten years ago! If it becomes law, anyone who is not a U.S. citizen—be they green card holders, international students, or H-1B workers—could become inadmissible and deportable for having a DUI on record.”
The proposed law would broaden the grounds for inadmissibility to include not only convictions but also admissions to DUI-related conduct. Additionally, it would apply regardless of whether the DUI is considered a misdemeanor or felony under state, federal, or local laws.
The legislation has received support from the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB), which cited U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) data showing more than 43,000 noncitizens were arrested on DUI charges between 2018 and 2023.
The new act comes amid a case of an Indian truck driver who killed three people in Florida this month when trying to make a U-turn on a busy highway. It was later revealed that the Indian was allowed to remain in the United States by the former Biden regime and was granted a commercial driving license by Governor Gavin Newsom‘s California government despite being an illegal alien.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Ghislaine Maxwell, Bill and Hillary Clinton, Chelsea Clinton, and Clinton aide Doug Band.
📍WHEN & WHERE: The 2013 Clinton Global Initiative conference, four years after sexual abuse claims against Maxwell became public.
🎯IMPACT: The report raises further questions about the Clintons’ ties to Maxwell.
IN FULL
Ghislaine Maxwell, who is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for sex trafficking, was honored in 2013 at the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) conference for her work in ocean conservation, despite sexual abuse allegations against her already being public at the time. Maxwell received a complimentary invitation to the event, which reportedly required approval from either Bill or Hillary Clinton. This occurred four years after Virginia Roberts Giuffre publicly accused Maxwell of recruiting and grooming her for abuse by Jeffrey Epstein. Maxwell had also been subpoenaed in 2009 as she left a previous CGI event, and attended Chelsea Clinton’s 2010 wedding.
A Clinton spokesman said that Maxwell’s invitation was one of over 600 complimentary tickets approved at the staff level for that year’s CGI. “As we have consistently said, the Clintons know nothing about Jeffrey Epstein’s terrible crimes,” the spokesman claimed. Despite this, internal communications reveal that longtime Clinton aide Doug Band had previously directed staff to bar Maxwell from all Clinton-related events, suggesting personal intervention by the Clintons to honor her in 2013.
Band also said that Chelsea Clinton maintained a relationship with Maxwell because of her “access to yachts and homes.”
Maxwell has long defended Bill Clinton’s ties to Epstein, claiming his travel on Epstein’s private plane was related to humanitarian work. Flight logs show Clinton flew with Epstein 26 times, but Maxwell described it as “one journey.” She also denied that Clinton ever received massages during those trips.
Earlier this month, the Department of Justice released transcripts and audio recordings from a two-day interview with Maxwell, conducted under limited immunity. Following the interview, she was transferred to a minimum-security facility in Texas. During the sessions, Maxwell addressed her interactions with President Donald J. Trump, stating, “I never witnessed the President in any inappropriate setting in any way. The President was never inappropriate with anybody. In the times that I was with him, he was a gentleman in all respects.”
She said Trump and Epstein were “friendly, like people are in social settings,” adding, “I don’t think they were close friends.”

❓WHAT HAPPENED: A far-left federal judge appointed by Barack Obama blocked President Donald J. Trump’s efforts to cut funding to sanctuary cities.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The ruling was issued Friday, impacting over 30 cities, including Los Angeles, Baltimore, and Chicago.
🎯IMPACT: Sanctuary jurisdictions remain protected from losing federal funds, but the Trump administration is expected to appeal the decision.
IN FULL
A far-left San Francisco judge, appointed to the bench by former President Barack Obama, ruled on Friday that the Trump administration cannot cut federal funding from dozens of cities and counties that have been designated as “sanctuaries” for illegal immigrants. Judge William Orrick—in the U.S. District Court Northern District of California—extended a preliminary injunction blocking the administration from withholding federal money or placing specific immigration-related conditions on grant programs.
The ruling protects more than 30 sanctuary jurisdictions, including major cities such as Los Angeles, Baltimore, Boston, and Chicago. Orrick also blocked the administration from placing similar immigration-related conditions on two grant programs. According to Orrick, Trump’s actions to withhold funding from these jurisdictions constitute unconstitutional coercion.
In January, Trump signed an Executive Order titled “Protecting the American People Against Invasion,” which cut off federal funding to sanctuary jurisdictions. The order directed the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to ensure that these jurisdictions do not receive federal money and to pursue lawful actions against jurisdictions that interfere with federal law enforcement.
Judge Orrick, in his order expanding the number of cities protected by the injunction, acknowledges his underlying ruling is currently under appeal. Additionally, some legal scholars suggest the injunction—due to its application outside the U.S. District Court Northern District of California—violates a recent Supreme Court ruling limiting injunctions to their originating jurisdiction and only allowing for broader orders in the case of class action lawsuits.
Notably, Orrick issued a similar ruling on defunding sanctuary cities during Trump’s first term.
Meanwhile, the Trump administration has also taken legal action against cities with sanctuary policies. In June, the DOJ sued Los Angeles, claiming its policies barring city resources from aiding immigration enforcement violated federal law. A month later, the DOJ filed a similar suit against New York City.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The federal directive was issued on July 1, and the crosswalk removal took place in Orlando, Florida, last week.
💬KEY QUOTE: “We will not allow our state roads to be commandeered for political purposes.” – Ron DeSantis
🎯IMPACT: The decision sparked criticism from local Democrat officials and far-left activists, while gaining support from many Floridians.
IN FULL
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) has ordered the removal of a rainbow-colored crosswalk in Orlando, in compliance with new federal regulations. On July 1, 2025, U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy announced new federal standards requiring “consistent and recognizable traffic control devices, including crosswalk and intersection markings, and orderly use of the right‑of‑way that is kept free from distractions.” All state governors were ordered to ensure compliance with the public safety regulations.
The move by DeSantis has enraged far-left activists and Florida Democrats, who claim the removal of the rainbow-colored crosswalk is an attack on gay rights. Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer (D) called the removal “callous” and “a cruel political act,” adding, “This crosswalk not only enhanced safety and visibility for the large number of pedestrians visiting the memorial, it also served as a visual reminder of Orlando’s commitment to honor the 49 lives taken,” referring to the victims of a jihadist mass shooting at Pulse nightclub in 2016.
Meanwhile, State Senator Carlos Guillermo Smith (D) argued, “They did this in the middle of the night because they were scared of the resistance, because they know what they did was wrong.”
Despite the histrionic Democrat complaints, the state transportation agency has been notifying cities around Florida that they must remove rainbow-colored crosswalks and intersections or face the withholding of transportation funds.
Gov. DeSantis defended his decision, stating, “We will not allow our state roads to be commandeered for political purposes.” Some activists later rechalked the rainbow colors onto the crosswalk as a form of protest.

💬KEY QUOTE: “We’re gonna allow it. It’s very important. 600,000 students. It’s very important.” — President Trump
🎯IMPACT: If implemented, the new student visa level would be more than double the number of Chinese nationals that were allowed to study in the United States during the 2023/2024 academic year, which stood at an estimated 277,398.
IN FULL
President Donald J. Trump appeared to reverse course on his administration’s emphasis on increased scrutiny of Chinese students seeking to study in the United States on Monday. Speaking with the press in the Oval Office—along with South Korean President Lee Jae Myung—Trump suggested the federal government will grant visas to 600,000 Chinese students. This would more than double the number of Chinese nationals that were allowed to study in the United States during the 2023/2024 academic year, which stood at an estimated 277,398.
“It’s a very important relationship; we’re going to get along good with China. I hear so many stories about [how] we’re not gonna allow their students. No, we’re gonna allow their students to come in,” President Trump said, to the bewilderment of many of his MAGA supporters.
He added: “We’re gonna allow it. It’s very important. 600,000 students. It’s very important.”
JUST IN: President Trump says the United States is going to continue to allow 600,000 Chinese students to study at American colleges.
“I hear so many stories about we’re not gonna allow their students. No, we’re gonna allow their students to come in…”
In late May, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced that the State Department would begin revoking visas for Chinese students studying at American universities. Almost immediately after the policy was announced, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) Ministry of Foreign Affairs declared the decision was “discriminatory.”
In a video statement posted to X (formerly Twitter), Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokeswoman Mao Ning dismissed the mounting national security concerns posed by Chinese nationals at U.S. academic institutions, who have been tied to espionage and subversive activities in a number of cases.
Compounding the confusion around President Trump’s statement that the United States will now double the number of student visas held by Chinese nationals is the recent announcement that the administration will be undertaking a review of all 55 million visas held by foreigners, both inside and outside the country.
In addition, Secretary of State Rubio revealed that the State Department has revoked an estimated 6,000 student visas as of August 18.

Journalist Katie Couric has attacked the Kennedy Center, where President Donald J. Trump has assumed control as chairman, as a “disgrace” on social media. Couric, 68, focused her bizarre outburst on an Instagram post featuring smiling young staffers at the Kennedy Center’s “Opera in the Outfield” event, saying, “This is so sad. I grew up going to the Kennedy Center… What they’ve done to it is a disgrace.”
Richard “Ric” Grenell, acting president and executive director of the Kennedy Center, responded directly: “We didn’t cancel a single show. Your team couldn’t perform for Republicans. They cancelled. It is this exact intolerance that we fight against.” He added, “Everyone is welcome to the Kennedy Center… even you!”
The National Pulse Editor-in-Chief Raheem Kassam, whoattended the “Opera in the Outfield” event, also responded to Couric, saying, “It’s a disgrace that you’re trying to hurt this institution now, simply because you have different political ideas from the people running it. It reveals your wafer-thin concern for the arts, and your petulance and disdain for the will of the people.”
Thanks to @RichardGrenell, @romadaravi, and the @kencen team for inviting me to see Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess at Nationals Park in Washington, D.C., this weekend.
Notably, the Kennedy Center had been struggling under the Biden government, which Trump attributed to infiltration by “woke” ideologues pushing ideological programming. Under the leadership of the America First leader and Grenell, it has put on many highly successful events, with Trump promising major renovations to bring it “back to the absolute TOP LEVEL of luxury, glamour, and entertainment.”
Congressional allies of Trump have introduced legislation to rename parts of the Kennedy Center. One proposal seeks to name the Opera House after First Lady Melania Trump, while another, the “Make Entertainment Great Again Act,” aims to rename the entire venue as the “Donald J. Trump Center for Performing Arts.”

IN FULL
Snoop Dogg has shared his discomfort about taking his grandson to the movies after being “blindsided” by homosexuality in Disney‘s animated film Lightyear. Speaking on the It’s Giving podcast, the rapper recalled how the 2022 Pixar spinoff left him struggling to answer his grandson’s questions about the female character Alisha Hawthorne, who is depicted as having a wife and a child who is their biological offspring.
“What you see is what you see, and they’re putting it everywhere,” Snoop stated. He described his grandson’s confusion during the movie, asking, “Papa Snoop? How she have a baby with a woman? She’s a woman!” The rapper admitted he was caught off guard, saying, “I didn’t come in for this s**t. I just came to watch the goddamn movie.”
Snoop Dogg says he’s “scared to go to the movies’” after taking his grandson to watch the new Toy Story spin-off “Lightyear” which featured a same-sex couple sharing a kiss:
Snoop expressed concerns about introducing LGBTQ+ relationships to young audiences, saying, “These are kids. We have to show that at this age? They’re going to ask questions. I don’t have the answer.” The film, which features Alisha Hawthorne marrying her partner and raising a child, includes Disney’s first same-sex kiss, a scene that was initially cut but later reinstated after production employee backlash.
The rapper’s remarks have sparked criticism from liberals online, with one writing, “Being afraid of gay parents in movies is crazy.” Liberal lobbying for Snoop to be removed from his scheduled performance at the Australian Football League’s Grand Final has also emerged.
Despite his near-universal celebrity status, Snoop Dogg has a history of skepticism and opposition to the radical LGBTQ+ agenda, especially concerning transgenderism. The grandfather of eight has previously faced backlash for referring to Bruce Jenner—who now calls himself Caitlyn—as a “science project.”
Notably, in recent months, a number of countries have begun reconsidering invasive hormone replacement and gender reassignment surgery and procedure access for minors. President Donald J. Trump has moved aggressively against such practices in the United States.

London’s Metropolitan Police reported 140 arrests on the first day of the Notting Hill Carnival, held on Sunday. The arrests involved offenses such as assaults on police officers, sexual crimes, drug dealing, robbery, and weapon possession. Arrests are up 40 percent compared to the 104 arrests recorded on the first day of the previous year’s Carnival, despite preemptive arrests, the use of facial recognition technology, and other measures designed to tamp down lawlessness.
The Notting Hill Carnival, a multi-day street festival celebrating Afro-Caribbeanculture since 1966, draws approximately one million visitors each year. However, it has faced growing scrutiny due to its endemic violence. Calls to relocate or cancel the event have intensified following incidents like the murders of chef Mussie Imnetu and mother Cher Maximen at last year’s Carnival.
Police data from Sunday detailed 15 arrests for assaults on officers, including one officer hospitalized, 21 for possessing offensive weapons, 25 for cannabis possession, 19 for intent to supply drugs, and four for sexual offenses. While police leaders often defend the Carnival festival, the Met’s rank and file members are known to despise it, with the police union-like Metropolitan Police Federation long calling for its cancellation.
In a proactive move, the Metropolitan Police arrested over 100 high-risk individuals before the Carnival started this year. Additionally, 21 people were recalled to prison, and 266 others were barred from attending through bail or probation orders.
The family of Cher Maximen, fatally stabbed in front of her daughter at last year’s Carnival, proposed moving the event to a park to curb violence.
