👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Nolan R. Churan, United States Capitol Police, D.C. Metropolitan Police.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Capitol Hill, Washington, D.C., July 2025

💬KEY QUOTE: “Currently, there does not appear to be a nexus to the Congress.” – USCP

🎯IMPACT: The incident triggered a weapons investigation and raised concerns over Capitol security.

IN FULL

Capitol Police officers from the First Responders Unit discovered a suspicious vehicle parked improperly in a zone designated for Congressional staff in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday, July 16. The Subaru Outback, which had a large tricycle strapped to its roof, drew attention for lacking a valid parking permit.

Upon inspecting the vehicle, officers spotted weapons and accessories inside, including a bow and arrow, a knife, and an empty pistol holster. After running the driver’s license, police located 23-year-old Nolan R. Churan near the North Barricade of the Capitol, where he admitted to having firearms in his car.

A firearms detection K-9 from the D.C. Metropolitan Police alerted to potential ammunition or weapons, prompting a more extensive search. The U.S. Capitol Police Crime Scene Evidence Unit uncovered a rifle, a handgun, ammunition, multiple blades, including knives and axes, a halberd, a rapier sword, and a bow and arrow.

Churan now faces a series of charges, including Carrying a Pistol without a License, Carrying a Rifle without a License, Possession of a High-Capacity Ammunition Feeding Device, and Carrying a Dangerous Weapon – Sword.

The Capitol Police Threat Assessment Section is continuing to investigate to determine Churan’s intent. USCP officials released a statement noting, “Currently, there does not appear to be a nexus to the Congress.”

ICE Agent Dragged for a Block By Illegal Immigrant.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: An illegal immigrant allegedly dragged a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer with his van for an entire block during an attempted escape in Dallas, Texas.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Honduran national Jose Melgar-Rivas and ICE officers.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The incident occurred in Dallas, Texas, with details posted by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on Thursday, July 17, 2025.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Attacks on our officers will NOT be tolerated. This resulted in multiple injuries to the officer’s body and ended with Jose Melgar-Rivas in cuffs.” – ICE via a post on X.

🎯IMPACT: The officer sustained multiple injuries, and Melgar-Rivas now faces charges of assaulting a federal officer alongside his existing removal order.

IN FULL

A U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer was dragged for an entire block by a van driven by Honduran national Jose Melgar-Rivas during an attempted detention in Dallas, Texas. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) detailed the incident in a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Thursday.

According to ICE, Melgar-Rivas attempted to flee by accelerating his vehicle, dragging the officer and leaving him with severe injuries, including bruising and friction burns. The DHS highlighted the case as an example of the growing danger federal officers face, noting an 830 percent increase in assaults on ICE personnel between January 21 and July 14 compared to the same timeframe in 2024. The agency attributed this rise in part to inflammatory rhetoric from “sanctuary” politicians, which incites hostility toward ICE agents.

“Attacks on our officers will NOT be tolerated,” ICE stated on X. “This resulted in multiple injuries to the officer’s body and ended with Jose Melgar-Rivas in cuffs.”

Melgar-Rivas, who already had a final order of removal, now faces additional charges of assaulting a federal officer.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Thursday, at the Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies, Oxford, England.

💬KEY QUOTE: “This wing will house the new King Charles III Programme.” – Dr Nizami

🎯IMPACT: The event launched initiatives like the King Charles III Programme, fostering leadership, environmental discussions, and scholarships, while further cementing ties between Western and Islamic academic traditions.

IN FULL

King Charles III visited the Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies on Thursday to celebrate its 40th anniversary. The British monarch has served as its patron since 1993.

During the event, the monarch officially opened the new King Charles III Wing, named in his honour. The newly designated space will be home to the King Charles III Programme, a wide-reaching initiative aimed at fostering Islamic leadership and research on key contemporary issues.

The new programme includes a series of academic and leadership initiatives such as fellowships, support for emerging Muslim leaders, and conferences focused on environmental issues and sustainability.

During the ceremony, King Charles took part in a ribbon-cutting to formally open the new wing. The space will now serve as a central location for initiatives such as the Young Muslim Leadership Programme.

Since becoming Britain’s monarch, King Charles has shown a fondness for Islam, including handing out treats during Ramadan earlier this year. At the same time, Islamic relief banners calling on people to “Trust in Allah” went up in London.

WSJ Publishes Weird Birthday Letter It Claims Trump Sent Epstein, 22 Years Ago. Here’s What It Says…

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: A birthday album for Jeffrey Epstein’s 50th birthday included a letter purportedly from Donald Trump, which he denies writing.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, Donald Trump, and other associates like Leslie Wexner and Alan Dershowitz.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The album was prepared in 2003, before Epstein’s first arrest in 2006.

💬KEY QUOTE: “This is not me. This is a fake thing. It’s a fake Wall Street Journal story.” – Donald Trump

🎯IMPACT: The existence of the album and its contents have not been previously reported, leading to increased scrutiny of past associations.

IN FULL

Ghislaine Maxwell prepared a special birthday album for Jeffrey Epstein’s 50th birthday, which included letters from various associates, including Donald Trump. According to the Wall Street Journal, the album was created in 2003, before Epstein’s first arrest in 2006. President Trump staunchly denies writing the letter.

The leather-bound album contained various letters, poems, and greetings from businesspeople and friends, ostensibly including Donald Trump, Leslie Wexner, and Alan Dershowitz.

A letter attributed to Trump was described as bawdy, featuring typewritten text framed by a drawing of a naked woman. Trump has denied writing or drawing anything in the album, stating, “This is not me. This is a fake thing. It’s a fake Wall Street Journal story.”

The letter is said to be a scripted, imaginary conversation between the two men, and says:

“Voice Over: There must be more to life than having everything,”

Donald: Yes, there is, but I won’t tell you what it is.

Jeffrey: Nor will I, since I also know what it is. 

Donald: We have certain things in common, Jeffrey. 

Jeffrey: Yes, we do, come to think of it. 

Donald: Enigmas never age, have you noticed that? 

Jeffrey: As a matter of fact, it was clear to me the last time I saw you. 

Trump: A pal is a wonderful thing. Happy Birthday — and may every day be another wonderful secret.

The Justice Department and FBI have not commented on whether the album was part of any recent document reviews. The album included contributions from various individuals, reflecting Epstein’s network.

Epstein, who managed Wexner’s fortune, socialized with Trump and other influential figures. Despite past associations, Trump has distanced himself from Epstein, and this album adds another layer to the complex history of these relationships.

Earlier on Thursday, the Trump White House distanced itself from the idea of a special counsel to oversee the Epstein case.

VOA Employee Charged for Alleged Death Threats Against Marjorie Taylor Greene.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: A Voice of America (VOA) employee was arrested on federal charges for allegedly making death threats against Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) and her family.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Suspect Seth Jason and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Arrest took place on Thursday; threats reportedly made between October 2023 and January 2025.

💬KEY QUOTE: “No one should have to live their life looking over their shoulder every day and wondering if those threats are about to be fulfilled and about to come true.” – Acting U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro

🎯IMPACT: The arrest highlights ongoing concerns about threats to elected representatives.

IN FULL

Seth Jason, a 64-year-old resident of Edgewater, Maryland, was arrested on Thursday after being indicted on multiple federal charges. Jason is accused of making death threats against Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), her family, and her staff over the course of more than a year.

The indictment alleges that Jason repeatedly called Greene’s district offices between October 2023 and January 2025, threatening to assault and kill her and her family. He also allegedly used phone lines connected to Voice of America (VOA) headquarters in Washington, where he was employed, to issue these threats.

During a news conference, Acting U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro stressed the severity of such threats, stating, “No one should have to live their life looking over their shoulder every day and wondering if those threats are about to be fulfilled and about to come true.” She also read one of Jason’s alleged messages, which said, “I am looking forward to your book signing. We are all armed and ready to take care of you.”

Jason, who had also volunteered as a reserve officer for the Anne Arundel County Police Department since 2016, is no longer affiliated with the department. In a statement, the department clarified that its reserve officers are unarmed and have no police authority.

Capitol Police Chief Michael Sullivan referenced a recent politically motivated shooting in Minnesota, emphasizing the need to hold individuals accountable for such threats. “This has got to stop,” Sullivan said. “We are going to work very, very hard to hold you accountable if you make these threats.”

The case is just the latest example of political threats and violence against conservatives, and comes just a year after the attempted assassination of President Donald J. Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, by shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks.

Import Data Shows Foreign Producers, Not Americans, Are Bearing the Brunt of Tariffs.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: U.S. import prices have risen less than expected since tariffs were imposed, with data indicating foreign manufacturers absorbing much of the burden.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: The Bureau of Labor Statistics, foreign manufacturers, and the Trump administration.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Data released Wednesday reflects changes through June 2025, focusing on U.S. import and consumer markets.

🎯IMPACT: Tariffs have not resulted in significant price increases for American consumers, contrary to earlier predictions.

IN FULL

U.S. import prices have not spiked since President Donald J. Trump‘s imposition of tariffs, despite critics’ claims that the new trade duties would result in significant cost increases for domestic U.S. companies. Data released Wednesday by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) suggests that foreign manufacturers are absorbing a significant share of the tariff burden.

The BLS data shows that import prices increased just 0.1 percent in June, which is in line with the overall consumer price increase reported by the Department of Labor. Notably, the producer price index, which focuses on domestic prices and excludes imports, remained flat for the month. Year-over-year, import prices declined 0.2 percent, marking two consecutive months of year-over-year decreases.

While many critics argued that American consumers would bear the burden, the data shows declining import prices, suggesting that foreign producers are absorbing the costs. For example, import prices from China have dropped at an annualized rate of 3.2 percent over the past three months, indicating that Chinese exporters are cutting prices to remain competitive.

Across categories, capital goods prices rose at an annualized rate of 1.6 percent, while consumer goods excluding autos also increased at the same rate. Industrial materials and auto prices saw slight declines. Overall, import prices are up at a three-month annualized rate of 1.9 percent, consistent with the Federal Reserve‘s two percent inflation target. This is slower than the rise in domestic consumer prices, which are up at a 2.4 percent annualized rate, and producer prices, which are up at 2.8 percent.

Import prices are measured before tariffs are applied, reflecting the price paid to foreign sellers at the point of export. The slower pace of import price increases relative to domestic inflation indicates that foreign producers are absorbing tariff costs rather than passing them on to U.S. consumers. This trend is evident across major categories of imported goods, where prices have either declined or risen below the Federal Reserve’s inflation target.

White House Rules Out Special Counsel to Investigate Epstein Case.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: The White House announced there will be no special counsel appointed for the Epstein case.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: White House officials and the Department of Justice (DOJ).

📍WHEN & WHERE: The announcement was made in July 2025, in Washington, D.C.

💬KEY QUOTE: “The President would not recommend a special prosecutor in the Epstein case. That’s how he feels.” — White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt

🎯IMPACT: The decision may further a growing rift between President Trump and elements of his base over Epstein.

IN FULL

The White House has confirmed that no special counsel will be appointed to investigate the handling of deceased pedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein’s case. The announcement was made amidst growing disquiet in President Donald J. Trump’s MAGA base over the handling of the case.

Pressed on the issue directly by the media, President Trump said, “I have nothing to do with it.” Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt later confirmed, “The President would not recommend a special prosecutor in the Epstein case. That’s how he feels.”

White House representatives stated that they believe the Department of Justice (DOJ), under Attorney General Pam Bondi, is managing the situation appropriately and that a special counsel is unnecessary.

Critics of the decision argue that appointing a special counsel would ensure an independent and thorough investigation, free from potential conflicts of interest. MAGA stalwarts such as WarRoom host and former White House Chief Strategist Stephen K. Bannon argue that such a special counsel, reporting directly to the President, would restore people’s faith that the case is being taken seriously, after Attorney General Bondi appeared to deny the existence of a “client list” she previously said was “on [her] desk” and mislabeled doctored video footage from near Epstein’s cell as “raw.”

Trump has adopted an increasingly hostile stance against people pushing for accountability and transparency in the Epstein case, labelling it a Democrat “hoax” and declaring, “I don’t want their support anymore!”

NYC’s Zohran Mamdani Is Willing to Abolish Private Property.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: A video clip of the Democrats’ New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani endorsing “the abolition of private property” sparked controversy online.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Zohran Mamdani, Republican lawmakers including Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY), and social media commentators.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The undated clip went viral on social media on July 17, 2025.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Whether you call it the abolition of private property or just a statewide housing guarantee, it is preferable to what is going on right now.” – Zohran Mamdani

🎯IMPACT: The remarks drew widespread criticism, with opponents labeling Mamdani a communist and calling for his defeat in the upcoming election.

IN FULL

Zohran Mamdani, the Democrat candidate for New York City mayor, faced a wave of backlash after a video clip of him advocating for “the abolition of private property” gained traction online. The footage was initially shared by the pro-MAGA Twitter account “End Wokeness” and subsequently amplified by prominent Republicans, including Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Representative Elise Stefanik (R-NY).

In the clip, Mamdani, who is currently a New York state assemblyman, stated, “My platform is that every single person should have housing… whether you call it the abolition of private property or… just a statewide housing guarantee, it is preferable to what is going on right now.” He added that he prioritizes ensuring people have homes over adhering to the current system.

Senator Cruz responded to the clip by calling Mamdani “a communist,” while Stefanik labeled him “Commie Mamdani” and criticized Democrat New York Governor Kathy Hochul for failing to condemn Mamdani’s remarks. “This is the NY Democrat Party @KathyHochul you lead, and you have failed to condemn this dangerous insanity,” Stefanik wrote on Twitter.

Other critics, including Amy Kremer and Congressman Mike Lawler (R-NY), expressed alarm at Mamdani’s comments. Lawler described the proposal as “bat shit insane” and urged voters to reject Mamdani at the ballot box in November, while Kremer accused him of wanting to seize personal property, including homes and apartments. The New York Young Republican Club referred to Mamdani as a “thoroughbred Marxist” and a “discount Bolshevik.”

Notably, Mamdani also supports the abolition of prisons and defunding the police. Born in Uganda, he is a member of Shia Islam’s extremist “Twelver” sect, and only became a U.S. citizen in 2018.

Federal Court Upholds Ban on Critical Race Theory in Schools.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: A ban on critical race theory (CRT) in Arkansas schools has been successfully defended before the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Arkansas Attorney General Tim Griffin, a three-judge panel from the 8th Circuit, and students challenging the law.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The ruling was issued on Wednesday by the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

💬KEY QUOTE: “With its ruling today, the 8th Circuit continues to ensure that the responsibility of setting the curriculum is in the hands of democratically elected officials who, by nature, are responsive to voters.” – Tim Griffin

🎯IMPACT: The ruling vacates a prior injunction and reinforces the state’s authority to determine school curricula.

IN FULL

The State of Arkansas successfully defended its ban on critical race theory in its schools before the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. On Wednesday, a three-judge panel issued a ruling against a legal challenge brought by a group of students who contend the state ban violates their First Amendment rights.

“Since the Free Speech Clause does not give the students the right to compel the government to say something it does not wish to, they cannot show a likelihood of success,” the 8th Circuit ruling reads. Notably, there are long-standing legal precedents for schools and both the state and federal governments to limit the free speech rights of students.

The ruling was met with praise by Arkansas Attorney General Tim Griffin (R), who stated on Wednesday: “With its ruling today, the 8th Circuit continues to ensure that the responsibility of setting the curriculum is in the hands of democratically elected officials who, by nature, are responsive to voters.”

White House Discloses Medical Issue Behind Trump’s Swollen Legs.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: The White House provided a detailed report addressing speculation about President Donald J.  Trump’s health, confirming a diagnosis of chronic venous insufficiency in his legs.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: President Donald Trump, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, and the White House medical unit.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The announcement was made during a White House press briefing on Thursday, July 17, 2025.

💬KEY QUOTE: “The president remains in excellent health, which I think all of you witness on a daily basis here,” said Karoline Leavitt.

🎯IMPACT: The transparency stands in stark contrast to the Biden government’s handling of health concerns, which has fueled speculation about cover-ups.

IN FULL

The White House addressed concerns about President Donald J. Trump’s health on Thursday, confirming a diagnosis of chronic venous insufficiency in his legs. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt shared a note from the president’s physician, stating that Trump had experienced “mild swelling in his lower legs,” which was thoroughly evaluated out of an “abundance of caution.”

“I know that many in the media have been speculating about bruising on the President’s hand and also swelling in the President’s legs,” Leavitt said. “So, in the effort of transparency, the President wanted me to share a note from his physician with all of you today.”

According to the physician’s note, ultrasounds revealed chronic venous insufficiency, a benign and common condition in individuals over 70. The condition involves blood pooling in the legs and can sometimes cause varicose veins. Trump also underwent extensive bloodwork and cardiac testing, all of which showed normal results. “Importantly, there was no evidence of deep vein thrombosis or arterial disease,” Leavitt emphasized.

Leavitt also addressed photos showing bruising on Trump’s right hand, attributing it to frequent handshaking and aspirin use, which is part of a standard cardiovascular prevention regimen. “This is a well-known and benign side effect of aspirin therapy,” she noted.

The detailed disclosure stands in stark contrast to the Biden government’s handling of health concerns. Biden’s former doctor and a Jill Biden aide recently invoked the Fifth Amendment to avoid testifying in a House Oversight Committee investigation into allegations of a cover-up regarding Biden’s cognitive decline.

Such actions have fueled speculation about the legitimacy of executive decisions made during Biden’s presidency amid allegations that the octogenarian Democrat experienced cognitive decline. He was also revealed to have cancer shortly after leaving office.

Jews Fleeing ‘Tolerant’ Canada for Trump’s America.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: Jews are fleeing Canada for the United States and Israel after a surge in anti-Semitic incidents.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Jews in Canada, pro-Palestinian and pro-Hamas agitators.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Canada, over recent months.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Toronto and Montreal seem to have become the standouts in the Western world. The velocity, ferociousness, intensity of the way in which anti-Semitism has sparked and spread in Toronto and Montreal, to this day, it shocks me.” – former Canadian ambassador to Israel Vivian Bercovici.

🎯IMPACT: Growing danger for Jews could lead more to flee Canada as pro-Palestinian agitators continue to march and target Jewish businesses and religious sites.

IN FULL

After a surge of anti-Semitic incidents in Canada, some Jews claim they are relocating to the United States, while others are looking to move to Israel. From 2022 to 2024, Canada saw a 124.6 percent increase in hate incidents directed at Jews, who account for around 70 percent of the victims of religiously motivated hate crimes despite being just 0.9 percent of the Canadian population.

Political strategist Georganne Burke, a resident of Canada’s capital, Ottawa, said she is planning on moving to Florida due to the rise in anti-Semitism after living in Canada for 40 years. “People know who I am, I’m on television, I’m on radio, I’m on social media, I don’t hide. But if that’s going to mean that people are gonna feel free to threaten my life. I don’t have to live here,” she explained, also noting the rise of anti-American attitudes following President Donald J. Trump‘s reelection.

Alongside a rise in anti-Semitic incidents, Canada has seen anti-Israel, and often pro-Hamas, demonstrations take place regularly in major cities like Toronto and Montreal since the October 7 massacres of Israelis by Hamas terrorists. Protestors have sometimes targeted Jewish neighbourhoods, community centers, and synagogues.

“Toronto and Montreal seem to have become the standouts in the Western world. The velocity, ferociousness, intensity of the way in which anti-Semitism has sparked and spread in Toronto and Montreal, to this day, it shocks me,” former Canadian ambassador to Israel Vivian Bercovici said.
