Migrant Arrested Ahead of LA Riots Shot Up a High School Graduation Party.

PULSE POINTS:

❓What Happened: U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested Cuong Chanh Phan, a 49-year-old illegal alien from Vietnam linked to a 1994 high school party shooting, ahead of the pro-illegal immigrant riots in Los Angeles, California.

👥 Who’s Involved: Cuong Chanh Phan, ICE, Governor Gavin Newsom (D), Mayor Karen Bass (D), and Phan’s victims.

📍 Where & When: Phan’s arrest occurred on June 7, 2025, as part of a wave of detentions that triggered a violent response from illegal aliens and their supporters. The shooting took place in San Marino, California, in 1994.

💬 Key Quote: “This criminal illegal alien is who Governor Newsom, Mayor Bass and the rioters in Los Angeles are trying to protect over U.S. citizens,” said the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

⚠️ Impact: Phan’s arrest exposes lax immigration enforcement under Democrat leaders, reinforcing Trump’s America First push to prioritize citizen safety over illegal migrant protection.

IN FULL:

One of the illegal aliens detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) ahead of the ongoing anti-ICE riots in Los Angeles, Cuong Chanh Phan, is linked to a 1994 mass shooting at a high school graduation party that left two teenagers dead, including a minor. The 49-year-old Vietnamese migrant “and his gang member associates” opened fire on the party in San Marino, California, after previously being asked to leave, according to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), leaving 18-year-old Dennis Buan and 15-year-old David Hang dead and seven others wounded.

“This criminal illegal alien is who Governor [Gavin] Newsom, Mayor [Karen] Bass and the rioters in Los Angeles are trying to protect over U.S. citizens,” the DHS said in a statement published to social media.

Phan’s decades-long presence in the U.S. without legal status underscores what critics call a failure of immigration enforcement under Democrat leadership. President Donald J. Trump’s America First agenda emphasizes securing the national borders and mass deportations to protect citizens from criminal illegal aliens. The case of Phan, who has evaded deportation for 31 years, underlines the consequences of lax immigration enforcement, with stronger measures enjoying broad support among the American public.

LAPD Chief: Migrant Riots ‘Escalating,’ ‘Increasingly Worse and More Violent.’

PULSE POINTS:

❓What Happened: Pro-illegal immigrant riots in Los Angeles, California, have escalated, with protesters using violent tactics against law enforcement.

👥 Who’s Involved: Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD), U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, protesters, President Donald J. Trump, and Democratic officials, including Governor Gavin Newsom, Mayor Karen Bass, and Senator Adam Schiff.

📍 Where & When: Los Angeles, California; riots began over the weekend.

💬 Key Quote: “This violence that I’ve seen is disgusting, it’s escalated now since the beginning of this incident,” said LAPD Chief Jim McDonnell.

⚠️ Impact: Dozens of arrests have been made, and tensions have risen as National Guardsmen have been deployed to address the violence.

IN FULL:

Violence in Los Angeles stemming from pro-illegal immigrant protests has intensified, according to Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) Chief Jim McDonnell. Speaking during a press conference, McDonnell described the escalating aggression, which includes protesters shooting commercial-grade fireworks at officers.

“This violence that I’ve seen is disgusting, it’s escalated now since the beginning of this incident,” McDonnell said. “Tonight we had individuals out there shooting commercial-grade fireworks at our officers, that can kill you,” he warned. McDonnell added that the LAPD has adjusted its tactics in an effort to detain those responsible and hold them accountable.

The riots, which began over the weekend, have seen demonstrators tearing up sidewalks, throwing rocks at law enforcement vehicles, and setting fire to California Highway Patrol cars. Over 40 arrests were made on Friday alone as Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents conducted immigration raids and search warrants.

McDonnell expressed qualified support for ICE, describing them as a “fellow law enforcement agency” with a clear mission. “To the people who are not happy with the fact that ICE is in the community doing what ICE does—I respect ICE for being a fellow law enforcement agency,” he said.

When asked about President Donald J. Trump’s decision to deploy 2,000 National Guardsmen to address the unrest, McDonnell acknowledged that his department would typically exhaust other options before involving the National Guard. However, he admitted that the situation may require reassessment, saying, “Looking at tonight, this thing has gotten out of control.”

The deployment of National Guardsmen has drawn criticism from prominent Democrats, including California Governor Gavin Newsom, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, and Senator Adam Schiff, who called the move “unprecedented.” Former Vice President Kamala Harris also complained about Trump sending troops to take on the riots, characterizing the deployment as “a dangerous escalation.” However, the America First leader’s supporters say the alternative is allowing the mob to dictate ICE operations.

Porn Boss Pleads Guilty to Sex Trafficking Charges.

PULSE POINTS:

❓What Happened: Michael James Pratt, the founder of the defunct porn website GirlsDoPorn, pleaded guilty to sex trafficking after years on the run.

👥 Who’s Involved: Pratt, his co-conspirators, and hundreds of women, many of them teenagers.

📍 Where & When: Operating out of San Diego from 2012 to 2019; Pratt fled in 2019, was arrested in Spain in 2022, and was extradited to the U.S. in 2024.

💬 Key Quote: “Pratt made ‘millions of dollars’ off the adult content,” according to the Department of Justice (DOJ).

⚠️ Impact: Pratt faces life in prison; his co-conspirators have also received significant sentences.

IN FULL:

Michael James Pratt, the founder of the now-defunct GirlsDoPorn website, has pleaded guilty to sex trafficking charges in San Diego, the Department of Justice (DOJ) has confirmed. Pratt, 42, admitted to orchestrating a scheme that lured hundreds of women, many of them teenagers, into performing in pornographic videos under false pretenses.

Pratt and his associates operated the scheme from 2012 to 2019, targeting young women through deceptive advertisements for modeling opportunities. Victims were reportedly promised that the videos would remain private and inaccessible in the United States. However, according to prosecutors, the content was uploaded online, garnering millions of views and generating over $17 million in revenue for Pratt.

In 2019, Pratt fled the United States and evaded law enforcement for over three years before being apprehended in Spain in December 2022. He was extradited to the U.S. in March 2024.

Court documents reveal that Pratt and his team employed coercive tactics to force the women to participate. Victims who expressed a desire to withdraw were allegedly threatened with lawsuits, canceled travel arrangements, or the public release of their videos.

One victim, an 18-year-old, responded to a Craigslist ad for “Bubblegum Casting” and was assured that her video would only be shared with private clients in Australia. Despite these assurances, the video was posted online nine months later, and her pleas for its removal were ignored.

Pratt’s co-conspirators have also faced justice. Co-founder Matthew Isaac Wolfe was sentenced to 14 years in prison earlier this year, while Ruben Andre Garcia, a male performer in the videos, received a 20-year sentence in 2021. Cameraman Theodore Gyi was sentenced to four years in 2022, and office manager Valorie Moser awaits sentencing later in 2025.

Pratt is scheduled for sentencing on September 8, 2025, and faces the possibility of life imprisonment for his role in the trafficking operation.

The case comes as other major pornography sites have also faced accusations of sex trafficking and worse. Pornhub, one of the largest porn websites online, has been accused of profiting from sex trafficking. The site’s parent group, Aylo Holdings S.A.R.L., has admitted to receiving payments from criminal actors who coerced women into sex acts and posted the videos without their permission.

ICE Captures Illegal Alien Attempting to Join ISIS After Biden Released Him.

PULSE POINTS:

❓What Happened: A Colombian illegal alien, released into the U.S. under the former Biden regime, attempted to join the Islamic State and has been arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

👥 Who’s Involved: The 35-year-old Colombian illegal alien, ICE, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and the Department of Justice (DOJ).

📍 Where & When: Entered the U.S. in Lukeville, Arizona on July 14, 2024; arrested in the Boston area on May 22, 2025.

💬 Key Quote: “This Colombian alien entered the country illegally and was released under the Biden administration. He went on to engage with an ISIS recruiter.” — ICE spokesman.

⚠️ Impact: The arrest highlights concerns about the Biden government’s handling of border security and the threat posed by migrants with potential ties to terrorism.

IN FULL:

A Colombian illegal immigrant, released into the United States under the former Biden regime, has been apprehended by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) after attempting to join the Islamic State (ISIS) terrorist group. The arrest was part of a broader operation targeting illegal aliens in the Boston area, according to officials.

The 35-year-old man entered the U.S. illegally via Lukeville, Arizona, on July 14, 2024. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) initially detained him due to a lack of valid documentation, placing him in removal proceedings. However, he was later released into the country’s interior.

In May 2025, ICE was informed by the Department of Justice (DOJ) that the individual had been in contact with a social media account reportedly facilitating travel and combat training for ISIS recruits. The account had requested videos of the man pledging allegiance to the terrorist organization.

On May 22, 2025, ICE and the FBI arrested the suspect in the Boston area during “Operation Patriot,” a larger initiative that resulted in nearly 1,500 arrests. An ICE spokesman commented on the case, stating, “This Colombian alien entered the country illegally and was released under the Biden administration. He went on to engage with an ISIS recruiter.”

This development follows the recent apprehension of a suspected al-Qaeda member in Philadelphia. This Tajikistan-born Russian citizen entered the U.S. in 2023 and was similarly released into the country. More recently, an Egyptian illegal alien was involved in a firebombing attack against a pro-Israel demonstration in Colorado.

Former Border Patrol Chief Aaron Heitke previously testified about a surge in “significant interest aliens” (SIAs)—individuals with potential terrorism ties—entering the U.S. under the Biden regime. Heitke revealed that the San Diego sector saw SIA arrests skyrocket from an annual average of 10-15 to over 100 in 2022, with even higher numbers in subsequent years. He also alleged that the administration barred him from publicly discussing the issue.

Concerns have been raised about the administration’s policies, with Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard reporting earlier this year that hundreds of individuals with ties to terrorist organizations had been paroled into the U.S.

BREAKING: AG Alleges Democrat Darling Kilmar Abrego Garcia Is Pedophile Who Trafficked Children, Narcotics, Firearms.

Deported Salvadoran illegal immigrant Kilmar Abrego Garcia, now returning to the United States to face criminal charges, has been accused of human trafficking, drug smuggling, gun running, and abusing women and children by Attorney General Pam Bondi, citing grand jury findings.

Abrego Garcia, who became a darling of the Democratic Party and segments of the media after he was deported to his native El Salvador despite a judge staying his removal to that country, was presented to the public as a hardworking father and “Maryland man” by his supporters, who demanded his return to the U.S. It subsequently emerged he was previously arrested on suspicion of human trafficking, and that his wife had filed a protective order against him for violent abuse.

Now, the authorities will be returning Abrego Garcia to the U.S.—because law enforcement has uncovered evidence of his long-term involvement in serious criminal activity. Among the “disturbing facts” that have emerged about the Salvadoran, per AG Bondi, are allegations he “traded the innocence of minor children for profit” by trafficking them. Co-conspirators allege he “abused undocumented alien females… who were under his control while transporting them,” and that he “solicited nude photographs and videos of a minor [and] played a role in the murder of a rival gang member’s mother.”

He is also alleged to be linked to a smuggling ring responsible for the deaths of 50 migrants being transported in a tractor-trailer that overturned in Mexico, among other offenses.

Bondi anticipates that, if convicted, Abrego Garcia will be deported from the U.S. after serving his sentence.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia Returning to U.S. — to Face Criminal Charges.

PULSE POINTS:

❓What Happened: Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a deported Salvadoran illegal alien, is being returned to the U.S. to face criminal charges related to alleged human trafficking.

👥 Who’s Involved: Abrego Garcia, the Trump administration, Democratic Senator Chris Van Hollen, and alleged MS-13 affiliates.

📍 Where & When: Abrego Garcia was deported to El Salvador months ago; he is now returning to face charges in the U.S.

⚠️ Impact: The case has become a political flashpoint, with Democrats criticizing the illegal immigrant’s initial deportation and advocating for his return.

IN FULL:

A Salvadoran illegal alien who was deported by the Trump administration is being brought back to the United States to face criminal charges for his alleged involvement in human trafficking operations, according to reports.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia is accused of participating in a years-long scheme to smuggle illegal immigrants into Texas, including aliens reportedly linked to the violent MS-13 gang. He faces two criminal charges related to these allegations.

Abrego Garcia was deported to El Salvador earlier this year and detained in the country’s high-security mega-prison, CECOT, despite being subject to a withholding order that was meant to prevent his removal to the government. The Trump administration previously maintained that it lacked the legal authority to reverse his deportation, with Abrego Garcia being a Salvadoran citizen on Salvadoran territory.

Senator Chris Van Hollen, a Democrat from Maryland, took the unusual step of traveling to El Salvador to meet with Abrego Garcia to advocate for him in person. Van Hollen and other Democrats have used the case to criticize the deportation and immigration policies of the Trump administration, characterizing him as an innocent “Maryland man.”

The National Pulse has previously reported how Abrego Garcia was accused of violent abuse by his wife and arrested on suspicion of human trafficking.

Patel: CCP Orchestrating Fentanyl Crisis to ‘Take Out Generations of Young Men and Women’ in America.

PULSE POINTS:

❓ What Happened: Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director Kash Patel accused the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) of using fentanyl to target American youth, describing it as a deliberate strategy to weaken the U.S. during an interview on The Joe Rogan Experience.

👥 Who’s Involved: Kash Patel, the FBI, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), and America’s Five Eyes partners.

📍 Where & When: Patel spoke on The Joe Rogan Experience, with the interview airing on June 6, 2025.

💬 Key Quote: “The Chinese… have used [fentanyl] as a directed approach… to take out generations of young men and women,” Patel said.

⚠️ Impact: Patel’s accusations highlight Trump’s America First focus on national security and intensifying efforts to combat the CCP’s role in the fentanyl crisis, killing over 100,000 Americans annually.

IN FULL:

Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director Kash Patel, speaking on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast, accused the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) of orchestrating the fentanyl crisis to undermine American youth. “The Chinese… have used [fentanyl] as a directed approach because we are their adversary,” Patel said, warning that the CCP aims to “take out generations of young men and women” who could otherwise become soldiers, police officers, and so on. He called it a “long-term plan” to weaken the U.S.

Patel detailed the FBI’s “massive enterprise to go after fentanyl precursor companies in mainland China,” where “the fentanyl precursors, the stuff you need to make fentanyl, comes from.” He noted, “They’ve got hundreds of companies… shipping this stuff out into the world.”

He said China had restricted exports of one fentanyl precursor, but “there’s 14 others they’re still shipping” to cartels in Mexico, India, and Vancouver, Canada, bypassing U.S. security.

Patel cited over 100,000 annual U.S. overdose deaths as a “tier one” national security threat, highlighting the CCP’s seemingly selective targeting of Americans. “You don’t hear fentanyl deaths in China… India… England, Australia, New Zealand, or… Canada,” he noted, saying the FBI is now working with Five Eyes partners Britain, Australia, Canada, and New Zealand and orchestrating sanctions on Chinese firms to disrupt supply chains.

Patel slammed the former Joe Biden government for ignoring this “national security crisis” in favor of obsessing over climate change and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). He pledged, “We will not have kids dying of fentanyl overdoses in our streets” under the Trump administration, vowing to intensify efforts against the CCP’s role in the epidemic.

Murder Charges Filed in Shooting of Israeli Embassy Staff at D.C. Jewish Museum.

PULSE POINTS:

❓What Happened: A man opened fire outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C., killing two Israeli Embassy staff members. The suspect has now been charged with murder.

👥 Who’s Involved: The suspect, Elias Rodriguez, 30, from Chicago, and the victims, Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Lynn Milgrim, both Israeli Embassy employees.

📍 Where & When: The shooting occurred near the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday night.

💬 Key Quote: “This is a horrific crime, and these crimes are not going to be tolerated by me and my office.” — U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro.

⚠️ Impact: The attack is being investigated as a hate crime and an act of terrorism, with heightened security measures now in place around the area.

IN FULL:

A Chicago man has been charged with two counts of first-degree murder and other crimes following the fatal shooting of two Israeli Embassy staff members outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C. Elias Rodriguez, 30, is accused of targeting Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Lynn Milgrim, a young couple employed by the Israeli Embassy, as they left an event.

Authorities say Rodriguez approached a group of four people outside the museum before opening fire with a 9mm handgun, striking Lischinsky and Milgrim multiple times. According to charging documents, Rodriguez allegedly fired additional rounds at Milgrim after she attempted to sit up. Lischinsky was pronounced dead at the scene, while Milgrim succumbed to her injuries shortly after being transported by emergency services.

The shooting is being investigated as a hate crime and an act of terrorism. U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro stated during a press briefing, “This is a horrific crime, and these crimes are not going to be tolerated by me and my office.”

Rodriguez, who allegedly declared his actions were “for Palestine” and “for Gaza,” was apprehended at the scene after surrendering to law enforcement. He reportedly purchased a ticket to the museum event hours before the attack and had flown to Washington, D.C., from Chicago on May 20 with the firearm in checked luggage.

Court documents indicate Rodriguez legally purchased the handgun in Illinois in March 2020. Investigators recovered 21 spent shell casings, a firearm magazine, and the gun used in the attack.

Rodriguez appeared in court on Thursday, where he was informed of the potential penalties if convicted, including life imprisonment or the death penalty. A preliminary hearing is scheduled for June 18, and Rodriguez remains in custody.

Last month, it was revealed that Rodriquez’s father was invited by Congressman Jesús ‘Chuy’ García (D-IL) to attend President Donald J. Trump‘s Congressional address on March 4. Eric Rodriguez was hailed as an “outspoken advocate against attacks on veterans’ services and the rights of unionized federal employees.”

Harvard Law Review Accused of Witness Intimidation Amid Investigation Into Anti-White Discrimination.

PULSE POINTS:

❓What Happened: The Harvard Law Review is under federal investigation for racial discrimination and alleged retaliation against a student editor.

👥 Who’s Involved: Harvard Law Review, a student editor, the Department of Justice (DOJ), attorney Jason Torchinsky.

📍 Where & When: Harvard University, ongoing as of 2025.

💬 Key Quote: “If you know someone is a witness in a federal investigation, and you try to intimidate them into stopping cooperation with the government, that in itself is its own offense,” said Jason Torchinsky.

⚠️ Impact: Potentially deepening legal troubles for the Harvard Law Review.

IN FULL:

The Harvard Law Review is facing multiple federal investigations over allegations of racial discrimination and actions that could amount to witness intimidation. Despite being under a federal document retention order as part of a Department of Justice (DOJ) investigation, the law journal allegedly retaliated against a student editor who leaked files to the Washington Free Beaconand demanded that the documents be destroyed.

Notably, the Harvard Law Review faces numerous allegations of discriminatory behavior in its selection of editors and other staff. Internal memos and messages show that the law journal emphasized race and other diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) factors in the selection process, leading to discriminatory practices against white applicants. Consequently, the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) launched formal investigations into the publication.

After receiving notice of the investigations, the Harvard Law Review was ordered to retain all documents and other relevant materials. Additionally, the publication was told that student editor Daniel Wasserman was cooperating with the government investigation. However, a week later, Wasserman was ordered by the journal to return or destroy any materials he had shared with media outlets. Notably, Wasserman was the source of leaked files published by the Washington Free Beacon.

Additionally, the journal issued a formal reprimand in Wasserman’s law review file, which likely constitutes illegal retaliation as the student editor was named by the federal government as a cooperating witness. Jason Torchinsky, a former Justice Department official, described such behavior as likely illegal, stating, “If you know someone is a witness in a federal investigation, and you try to intimidate them into stopping cooperation with the government, that in itself is its own offense.”

While technically separate from Harvard University, the Harvard Law Review has a long-standing presence on campus and is considered a significant stepping stone for students with high ambitions in the legal field. A number of U.S. Supreme Court Justices once served as editors during their time at Harvard Law School.

Convicted Pedo Avoids Prison Twice Because He’s Trans.

PULSE POINTS:

❓What Happened: A transgender pedophile has managed to avoid prison twice despite violating the initial terms of his release because he is transgender.

👥 Who’s Involved: Convicted pedophile Peter Selby, Judge Robert Adams.

📍 Where & When: Selby was initially convicted for child abuse material in 2022, was arrested for violating the terms of his release in 2023, and was let go yet again on June 3.

💬 Key Quote: Selby would “undoubtedly be at risk of physical or sexual assault in custody because of [his] presentation in a male prison,” claimed Judge Adams.

⚠️ Impact: The case is just the latest to see a transgender pedophile avoid prison in England, while people who posted “hate” on social media remain behind bars.

IN FULL:

A convicted pedophile has managed to escape imprisonment twice despite possessing over 125,000 child sex abuse images and videos and breaching a sexual harm prevention order, because of his transgender identity. A British judge initially convicted 71-year-old Peter Selby in 2022, sentencing him to just 14 months in prison, despite the maximum sentence being up to 10 years, suspended for two years.

According to the judge in the case, Selby risked harm behind bars and would be safer living in his local community with some restrictions placed on his behaviour. Selby was placed on the sex offenders register, according to the news website Reduxx, and was restricted from downloading VPN software, which could hide his Internet usage. These restrictions were to last at least 10 years.

However, just months later, in 2023, Selby was visited by local police, who found that he had already violated the restrictions placed on him as a condition for his release by downloading VPN software. During an appearance at Newcastle Crown Court on June 3, Selby claimed to have been unaware of downloading the software.

While the police found no additional child sex abuse material (CSAM), the downloading of the VPN was a clear breach of the terms of his release. Judge Robert Adams acknowledged that Selby had violated the agreement, saying it was in place to make it more difficult for Selby to re-offend.

Judge Adams did not activate Selby’s suspended sentence and put him in prison, however, saying that Selby would “undoubtedly be at risk of physical or sexual assault in custody because of [his] presentation in a male prison.” Instead, Selby was given another 10-month suspended sentence and a paltry fine equivalent to $135.

Transgender pedophiles have avoided jail in the United Kingdom before, including a case in 2023 in which a man who dresses as a woman was caught with dozens of CSAM images. Due to his transgender identity, the court could not decide to put him in a men’s or women’s prison and eventually let him go with an order to attend 30 days of rehabilitation, pay victim surcharges, and be added to the sex offender register.

The two cases are a stark contrast to that of Lucy Connolly, a woman sentenced to over two years in prison for a social media post during the Southport anti-mass migration riots last year, merely for saying she would not care if migrant hotels were set on fire.
