Reports claim former President Donald J. Trump is no longer planning to visit Springfield, Ohio, despite having pledged to do so at a rally last week, after Ohio Governor Mike DeWine (R) told local media a visit would “put a strain on the community.” Republican-in-name-only (RINO) state and local officials have been running covering for Haitian migrants in the city, denying reports by residents—repeated by Trump—that they have been harming animals and generally lowering the small city’s standard of living.
According to Newsweek, “two sources familiar with the matter have said Trump is not expected to visit the city in the near future.” At a rally in Long Island on September 18, the former president had announced his intention to visit Springfield within two weeks.

Governor DeWine previously said that Trump’s criticism of the influx of a reported 20,000 Haitians into Springfield was “very hurtful for these men and women who work very, very hard.” He also pressured state lawmakers to bend election rules to ensure that Biden would make the state’s ballots despite failing to follow the relevant laws.
Trump’s running mate, Senator J.D. Vance (R-OH), has also been critical of the situation in Springfield and reports his office has received reports of Haitians harming animals. Additionally, Vance has criticized the corporate media for taking official denials of such abuse at face value, asking at an Indiana rally recently, “Did you ever think about listening to people speak their truth instead of listening to some bureaucrat and assuming that everything they tell you is true?”

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Moussa Kadri, the defendant; Hamit Coskun, the protester and victim; Judge Adam Hiddleston; prosecutors; defense lawyer Greg Unwin; the Turkish consulate in London.
📍WHEN & WHERE: Attack in Rutland Gardens, Knightsbridge, West London; sentencing at Southwark Crown Court.
💬KEY QUOTE: “Use of blades is a curse on our community.” – Judge Adam Hiddleston
🎯IMPACT: Kadri’s suspended sentence further increases the sense of a two-tier justice in the United Kingdom, contrasting sharply with the draconian prison terms handed down to social media users and non-violent protesters who have expressed negative sentiments about immigration and Islam in recent months.
IN FULL
A Muslim man who attacked a protester for burning the Koran outside the Turkish consulate in London, England, has been spared prison, prompting renewed debate over the consistency of policing and sentencing in Britain. Moussa Kadri, who slashed protester Hamit Coskun with a knife after he burned the Islamic holy book, received a 20-week prison sentence suspended for 18 months at Southwark Crown Court. He must also complete 150 hours of unpaid work and 10 days of rehabilitation.
The court heard that Coskun, during a protest in Knightsbridge, West London, shouted, “F**k Islam,” “Islam is religion of terrorism,” and “Koran is burning,” while holding a flaming Koran. Kadri angrily confronted him, calling him a “f**king idiot” and threatening, “I’m going to kill you” before slashing him with a knife. As Coskun stumbled to the ground, Kadri spat on and kicked him. He later told police: “Burning the Koran? It’s my religion, you don’t burn the Koran. I protect my religion.”
Judge Adam Hiddleston called Kadri’s actions “disgraceful” and added, “Use of blades is a curse on our community,” but stressed the emotional nature of his reaction by way of justification for it. Kadri’s defense lawyer, Greg Unwin, had said the act was a spontaneous reaction to what Kadri saw as a deeply offensive attack on his faith.
Notably, the victim was also prosecuted and convicted of “religiously aggravated disorderly conduct,” with prosecutors initially citing harassment of the “religious institution of Islam”—effectively a blasphemy charge.
The sentence comes at a time when other cases involving hostility toward Islam have resulted in much harsher outcomes. In a recent case, Nathan Poole was jailed for 30 months after shouting “Who the f**k is Allah?” during an anti-immigration protest outside a mosque in Stoke-on-Trent. Judge Richard McConaghy said the chants were clearly motivated by hostility towards Islam, and that the mosque setting amplified the offense.
These contrasting outcomes have fueled accusations of two-tier policing and sentencing in the United Kingdom. Critics point to a 2024 incident where police were filmed asking a group of armed Muslim men to leave their weapons at a mosque to avoid arrest, while anti-immigration protesters were being aggressively confronted and arrested by riot squads.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Dr. Amal Bose, Catherine Hudson, Charlotte Wilmot, Marek Grabianowski, Xowi Mwimbi, Hernando Puno, Dr. Aloaye Foy-Yamah, the Natioanl Health Service (NHS), and Lancashire Police.
📍WHEN & WHERE: Allegations first surfaced in 2018 at Blackpool Victoria Hospital, with subsequent trials and investigations continuing through 2025.
💬KEY QUOTE: “Transparency and openness are incredibly important when healthcare professionals are dealing with patients.” – Christian Beadell
🎯IMPACT: The investigation has led to multiple convictions, ongoing scrutiny, and leadership changes at the hospital.
IN FULL
England’s Blackpool Victoria Hospital is at the center of a major scandal following the conviction of multiple staff members for serious misconduct and criminal behavior. The police investigation, known as Operation Bermuda, was launched by Lancashire Police after disturbing reports emerged from the National Health Service (NHS) hospital’s stroke unit. Allegations include patient neglect, abuse, and a toxic workplace culture that allowed inappropriate behavior to go unchecked.
Among those jailed is Dr. Amal Bose, a former consultant convicted of molesting female colleagues. His actions, revealed during trials at Preston Crown Court, are said to reflect a broader culture of misconduct within the hospital. Staff members were also accused of sedating difficult patients, not for medical reasons, but to make their shifts easier.
The case has expanded to include investigations into corporate manslaughter and violations of the Health and Safety at Work Act. Several leadership figures within the hospital trust have since been replaced, and the trust is now cooperating fully with ongoing inquiries.
The investigation has also uncovered a number of patient deaths under suspicious circumstances. One particularly tragic case involves Valerie Kneale, a grandmother whose death was linked to a violent sexual assault. Despite extensive police efforts, justice has not yet been served in her case, which remains classified as an unlawful killing.
Christian Beadell of Fletchers Solicitors, who represents several affected families, has called for greater scrutiny of healthcare practices, stating the need for “transparency and accountability in healthcare.” He emphasized the hope that this case will lead to meaningful changes not only at Blackpool Victoria but across other NHS Trusts.
The scandal comes amid broader concerns about the state of the National Health Service. Recent reports have exposed multiple failures across NHS institutions. In one instance, York and Scarborough Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust admitted to mistakenly amputating the wrong limbs of six patients over a three-year period.
In another controversial decision, NHS England removed proposed age restrictions on gender identity services, allowing children as young as toddlers to be referred for psychological evaluation.

💬KEY QUOTE: “I don’t think there is anything I can say or do that will ever be big enough to repair the harm that I’ve done.” – Nicole Mitchell.
🎯IMPACT: Mitchell’s conviction leaves her suburban district without representation until a special election in November, potentially affecting the narrow Democrat majority in the state Senate.
IN FULL
Nicole Mitchell, a former Minnesota Democrat state senator and ally of Governor Tim Walz (D), was sentenced to six months in jail for breaking into her estranged stepmother’s home in Detroit Lakes. The incident occurred in April 2024, and Mitchell was convicted of first-degree burglary and possession of burglary tools. She will serve her sentence on work release in Ramsey County, where she lives, beginning October 8.
Mitchell, 51, admitted to the court, “I don’t think there is anything I can say or do that will ever be big enough to repair the harm that I’ve done.” The judge allowed her to serve the 180-day sentence on work release and stayed a 21-month prison term contingent on her compliance with probation. Under Minnesota law, she could be released in four months.
Prosecutor Brian McDonald criticized the decision to let Mitchell serve her sentence outside Becker County, calling it “preferential treatment.” He also noted her refusal to resign from the Senate until a week after her conviction. Mitchell represented a suburban district in the closely divided Senate, often casting decisive votes.
Body camera footage played during the trial showed Mitchell in the basement of her stepmother’s home dressed in black with a flashlight covered by a sock. She reportedly told police, “Clearly, I’m not good at this,” and admitted, “I know I did something bad.”
Carol Mitchell, the victim, stated in court, “Fear has moved in with me to stay. How could I ever trust Nicole again?” Gov. Walz has scheduled a special election for November 4 to fill Mitchell’s seat, as well as the seat of a Republican senator who passed away.

❓WHAT HAPPENED: A new audit revealed Maryland’s foster care system failed to perform background checks, resulting in children being placed in homes with sex offenders and a convicted murderer being hired for child care in hotels.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Issues spanned several years, with the 2025 audit highlighting incidents through 2023 and 2024 in Maryland.
💬KEY QUOTE: “The audit of Maryland’s Social Services is absolutely abhorrent and reads like criminal negligence,” said Delegate Kathy Szeliga.
🎯IMPACT: The audit uncovered systemic failures, including unvetted foster homes, misuse of funds, and noncompliance with federal standards, risking children’s safety and costing Maryland millions in penalties.
IN FULL
An audit of Maryland‘s foster care programs has found the system failed to perform adequate background checks, resulting in at least 10 children being placed to live in homes with registered sex offenders. The review also found that foster children were placed with a convicted murderer who was paid to provide “one-on-one” care for the children in hotels.
The audit, conducted by the Democrat-run Maryland General Assembly’s Department of Legislative Services, found systemic problems in the foster care system, with an estimated 38 percent of children placed in foster homes failing to attend school despite state records showing otherwise.
In one instance, uncovered by investigators, state officials claimed to have reviewed a group foster home in 2023, but did not take note of an employee convicted of sexual assault on a minor in 2014. Three months later, the individual allegedly transported foster children for inappropriate activity and was subsequently charged with crimes involving children under his care. The Maryland Department of Human Services’ Social Services Administration (SSA) failed to document any corrective action following the incident.
Maryland Delegate Kathy Szeliga (R) condemned the findings, stating, “The audit of Maryland’s Social Services is absolutely abhorrent and reads like criminal negligence. The 72-page report reveals shocking recklessness in the care of foster children.” She called for immediate accountability, saying, “Governor Wes Moore must immediately fire someone. The buck stops with [Maryland Department of Human Services Secretary Rafael Lopez] or the Executive Director of the Social Services Administration, Dr. Alger Studstill, Jr.”
Auditors revealed that county agencies often failed to perform background checks, and the SSA rubber-stamped their paperwork without verification. One contractor providing one-on-one services employed a convicted murderer, and hundreds of children were placed in unlicensed hotel settings at exorbitant daily costs. Additionally, the SSA failed to recover $34.5 million in overpayments to foster care providers and did not ensure that children received required medical and dental exams.
The audit also highlighted the agency’s failure to comply with federal standards, resulting in a $700,000 fine in 2024. Many of these issues had been identified previously, but promised reforms were not implemented. In response, the SSA acknowledged regulatory shortcomings and claimed to have taken action in cases involving children living with sex offenders.

💬KEY QUOTE: “In a very competitive top 10 Durham has climbed two places in a year, which is a significant achievement,” said Helen Davies, editor of The Times and The Sunday Times Good University Guide.
🎯IMPACT: LSE retained first place, Durham University was named University of the Year, and regional universities were highlighted for their performance, with Oxford and Cambridge falling to joint fourth.
IN FULL
For the first time in 32 years, the University of Oxford and the University of Cambridge have been pushed out of the top three rankings in The Times and The Sunday Times Good University Guide 2026. The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) retained the top spot for the second consecutive year, while the University of St Andrews ranked second, and Durham University climbed to third. Notably, this comes as the once-prestigious “Oxbridge” has been infected with woke ideology, with Oxford accepting incoming Oxford Union president George Abaraonye, who celebrated the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, despite poor grades, likely to meet racial diversity quotas.
Durham University was named University of the Year 2026 after improving its position from fifth place last year. Helen Davies, editor of the guide, noted that Durham’s rise was driven by “improvements in teaching quality and student experience,” which contributed to its significant achievement in surpassing Oxford and Cambridge.
The guide, which has been published annually since 1993, evaluates universities based on various factors, including teaching quality, student satisfaction, research output, sustainability, and graduate prospects. This year, the rankings highlighted regional universities, with LSE recognized as the top institution in London and Durham leading in the North and North East.
Professor Karen O’Brien, vice-chancellor of Durham University, celebrated the accolade, stating, “Durham is an outstanding place to study. We ensure that every student can grow and thrive here. Our loyal, engaged alumni are a testament to the impressive career prospects that await our graduates.”
Meanwhile, LSE also received awards for Academic Performance and Russell Group University of the Year, further solidifying its position as a leading institution.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Ongoing investigations, with letters sent to organizations such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.
💬KEY QUOTE: “At a minimum, Americans deserve to fully know if their hard-earned savings are being used in a progressive playbook.” – James Comer
🎯IMPACT: The investigation could lead to new legislation protecting Americans’ investments and greater transparency in corporate practices.
IN FULL
The House Oversight Committee, chaired by Representative James Comer (R-KY), is broadening its investigation into potential discrimination by insurance companies and financial institutions against individuals and entities with right-leaning political views. The probe also examines whether retirees’ pension accounts are being used to fund progressive policies without their consent.
In a letter to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, Comer stated, “The Committee on Oversight and Government Reform is investigating improper restrictions on access to capital and capital markets of individuals and entities based on political viewpoints or involvement in certain industries (such as cryptocurrency, energy, and firearms).” He noted that whistleblowers have reported having their insurance policies canceled for holding widely-held political positions or operating businesses disfavored by progressive activists.
Comer also addressed Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, acting as commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), about the use of proxy proposals and activism targeting corporate boards by activists pursuing political agendas. He questioned whether these practices violate fiduciary duties and called for transparency regarding how investment managers and pension fund managers handle Americans’ savings.
The investigation has also drawn attention to large asset management firms like BlackRock, which Comer accused of prioritizing green energy initiatives and other progressive policies over profitability. BlackRock responded in a public statement, saying, “We are bound to adhere to [our clients’] investment guidelines and objectives. We do not dictate particular investment strategies.”
Additionally, the committee is investigating whether companies are rebranding diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) initiatives to circumvent President Donald J. Trump’s Executive Order banning such practices. Comer emphasized the importance of transparency, stating, “At a minimum, Americans deserve to fully know if their hard-earned savings are being used in a progressive playbook.”

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: President Donald J. Trump, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), and Congress.
📍WHEN & WHERE: Tuesday morning via Truth Social; the meeting was set for the Oval Office this week.
💬KEY QUOTE: “After reviewing the details of the unserious and ridiculous demands being made by the Minority Radical Left Democrats in return for their Votes to keep our thriving Country open, I have decided that no meeting with their Congressional Leaders could possibly be productive.” – Donald Trump.
🎯IMPACT: Heightened risk of a government shutdown, as both funding proposals failed in the Senate last week, potentially leading to a funding lapse at the end of the month.
IN FULL
President Donald J. Trump has thrown cold water on speculation that he would meet with Congressional Democratic leaders this week to negotiate a government funding compromise and avert a government shutdown beginning October 1. Early Tuesday, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) appeared to confirm they would meet with President Trump in the Oval Office later this week. However, the America First leader has dismissed the possibility of a meeting, writing in a post on Truth Social that Democrats must “become realistic” about their legislative demands.
“After reviewing the details of the unserious and ridiculous demands being made by the Minority Radical Left Democrats in return for their Votes to keep our thriving Country open, I have decided that no meeting with their Congressional Leaders could possibly be productive,” President Trump wrote. “They are threatening to shut down the Government of the United States unless they can have over $1 Trillion Dollars in new spending to continue free healthcare for Illegal Aliens (A monumental cost!), force Taxpayers to fund Transgender surgery for minors, have dead people on the Medicaid roles, allow Illegal Alien Criminals to steal Billions of Dollars in American Taxpayer Benefits, try to force our Country to again open our Borders to Criminals and to the World, allow men to play in women’s sports, and essentially create Transgender operations for everybody.”
“They are trying to eliminate the popular $50 Billion Dollar Rural and Vulnerable Hospital Fund, which was passed with only Republican Votes, and proudly signed into Law by ME,” Trump declared, adding: “The Democrats in Congress seem to have totally lost their way. They obviously have no idea what it means to put America First or to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! All Congressional Democrats want to do is enact Radical Left Policies that nobody voted for.”
Late last week, House Republicans passed a mostly clean continuing resolution, which would keep the government funded until November 21. The only notable provision added was funding for increased security for lawmakers in response to the assassination of Turning Point USA (TPUSA) founder Charlie Kirk. The House funding bill fell short of overcoming a Senate filibuster late Friday.
Senate Democrats countered with their own proposal that would fund the government until October 31. However, it contained additional new spending provisions and measures that would repeal portions of the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” passed earlier this year.

IN FULL
Former MSNBC and ESPN host turned iHeart Radio podcaster Keith Olbermann is on his second day of an unhinged social media tirade, targeting members of the Trump administration and threatening other prominent Republican figures. Late Monday, Olbermann kicked off his rant by threatening Republican strategist and CNN commentator Scott Jennings before continuing his attacks on Tuesday.
“You’re next motherf**ker,” the former MSNBC host wrote in a now-deleted post on X (formerly Twitter) directed at Jennings. “But keep mugging for the camera.”
The remarks were widely interpreted as a violent threat, especially in light of the continued violent political rhetoric espoused by Democrats and far-left figures following the assassination of Turning Point USA (TPUSA) founder Charlie Kirk.
After initial pushback, Olbermann attempted to walk back the threat, saying, “Now we get the fascists off real tv. That’d mean your career is next, Jennings. Send a tape to Real America’s Voice.”
After leveling his threat against Jennings, Olbermann’s social media meltdown continued on Tuesday, with the far-left podcaster writing, “Ladies and gentlemen, [Marco Rubio], political prostitute.” The post appears to be in reference to Secretary of State Marco Rubio‘s attendance at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) alongside President Donald J. Trump. Next, Olbermann railed against White House Border Czar Tom Homan, posting to X, “Homan literally has the word ‘ho’ in his name.”
The temporary suspension of late-night comedy host Jimmy Kimmel by ABC’s parent company Disney appears to have been the impetus for Olbermann’s meltdown. However, Kimmel’s reinstatement on Monday does not seem to have satiated the far-left commentator.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Bannon spoke exclusively to The National Pulse.
💬KEY QUOTE: “Google Oligarchs Go F**k Yourself—Our Mission is to Destroy You.” – Stephen K. Bannon.
🎯IMPACT: Bannon’s remarks underscore the ongoing tension between the Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement and Big Tech, despite its escalating attempts to appease President Donald J. Trump and his supporters.
IN FULL
WarRoom host and former Trump White House Chief Strategist Stephen K. Bannon has shown little desire for reconciliation with Google and holding company Alphabet after the tech giant announced it would allow conservative creators, banned during the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2020 election for voicing skepticism about the narrative and policies around the virus and the legitimacy of Joe Biden’s win, to return to their platforms.
In an exclusive interview with The National Pulse, Bannon did not hold back, stating, “Google Oligarchs Go Fuck Yourself—Our Mission is to Destroy You.”
The WarRoom host is one of many America First and conservative leaders removed from YouTube for political speech, alongside Dan Bongino, now the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Deputy Director, and Sebastian ‘Seb’ Gorka, now the Deputy Assistant to the President of the United States.
“Reflecting the Company’s commitment to free expression, YouTube will provide an opportunity for all creators to rejoin the platform if the company terminated their channels for repeated violations of COVID-19 and elections integrity policies that are no longer in effect,” Google wrote to the House Judiciary Committee, which had pressed the tech giant over its censorship regime.
Bannon is one of many MAGA voices who believe Big Tech, which has at least somewhat rolled back its deplatforming and partisan “fact-checks” in recent months, is merely attempting to appease the Trump administration to avoid a regulatory clampdown, with no real change of heart behind its policy shift.
Notably, Google is claiming it was pressured into acting as a censor by the Democrats when they wielded political power, saying, “Senior Biden Administration officials, including White House officials, conducted repeated and sustained outreach to Alphabet and pressed the Company regarding certain user-generated content related to the COVID-19 pandemic that did not violate its policies.”

💬KEY QUOTE: “The evidence has shown one thing and one thing only—the defendant wanted Donald Trump dead.” – Assistant U.S. Attorney Christopher Browne
🎯IMPACT: Routh faces life in prison.
IN FULL
UPDATE: 02:50 PM EST — Routh attempted to kill himself by stabbing a pen into his neck as the verdicts were being announced. However, as with his attempt on President Trump’s life, he appears to have been unsuccessful, with four U.S. Marshals restraining him, dragging him from the courtroom, and returning him in shackles.
Original report continues below…
Ryan Routh, 59, has been found guilty of all charges related to the attempted assassination of Donald J. Trump. The Ukrainian recruiter was charged last year after federal prosecutors accused him of attempting to assassinate the then-presidential candidate at his West Palm Beach golf course in Florida.
Routh had pleaded not guilty to the charges, which included five federal offenses. He had set up a sniper’s nest in a bush, and President Trump came within firing range before Routh was spotted by a Secret Service agent.
Agents later found a GoPro, two backpacks, a loaded SKS-style rifle with a scope, and other equipment in the nest.
During the trial, Assistant U.S. Attorney Christopher Browne emphasized to the jury that the evidence clearly indicated Routh’s intent to kill Trump. “This was not a publicity stunt,” Browne stated, adding that Routh “almost got away” with his plan.
Routh, representing himself, attempted to argue that he committed no crime as he never fired a shot. However, his rambling, 42-minute closing argument, which featured references to Ukraine, was shut down by Judge Aileen Cannon for being off-topic.
Previously, Routh faced charges for possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and possession of a firearm with an obliterated serial number, carrying potential penalties of up to 20 years in prison and substantial fines.
