Britain’s Home Office has managed to remove just 155 of the 29,437 illegal arrivals from last year, according to figures brought to light by the Freedom of Information Act. The UK currently has a “conservative” government, though the governing Conservative Party has governed to the center-left for the past 14 years.
Operation Vector, devised to tackle the escalating migration crisis, kicked off last week with dawn sweeps apprehending asylum seekers for transfer to immigration removal centers pending deportation to Africa. Nevertheless, Home Office legal teams are girding for anticipated legal appeals, with an internal forecast predicting up to 75 percent of migrants could be successful in judicial reviews halting their expulsion.
Last Wednesday saw a single-day record for this year, with 711 migrants crossing the Channel. Critics of the government’s handling of the situation, such as Alp Mehmet, chair of Migration Watch, labeled the 2023 removal numbers as ‘disgraceful’ and urged for stronger deterrent measures.
The Home Office emphasized its commitment to routine deportations, noting that it had removed 26,000 individuals with no legal right to remain in the UK and planning to launch Rwanda-bound flights within nine to eleven weeks.

Biden regime Special Counsel Jack Smith has acknowledged that the order of classified documents related to a case involving former President Donald Trump may have been altered after being seized by the FBI. The admission came as a response to a plea by the legal team of one of Trump’s co-defendants for a case delay due to complications in pinpointing the roots of certain documents. The FBI had seized 33 boxes of documents during a search at Mar-a-Lago in August 2022.
Previously, prosecutors had stated to U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon that these boxes were exactly as they were seized. However, they have since confessed that this is not consistent with earlier offered details. The Government stated, “There are some boxes where the order of items is not as in the associated scans.”
Trump’s defense is ready to argue that these documents were stored in chronological order in the White House when Trump received them. They believe the staff packed them up and sent them to Mar-a-Lago unknowingly of their classified nature.
“Prosecutors and investigators should never tamper with or alter evidence in their possession, including the order of documents in a box because one never knows what may become relevant or crucial to a court or jury later in a case,” Harvard Law Professor Emeritus Alan Dershowitz told Just The News.
The case revolving around Trump’s classified documents is scheduled to commence on May 20. Both parties agree that an extension might be necessary before court proceedings can start.

The far-left MeidasTouch Network – linked to Jeffrey Epstein associates as well as alleged sex trafficker P. Diddy – has bemoaned the ouster of establishment lawyer Charlie Spies after The National Pulse highlighted Spies’s history of anti-Trump activity.
Ron Filipowski, the network’s Editor-in-Chief, tweeted on Sunday morning, “Charlies Spies is out at the RNC. The last normie has left the building.
Spies was finally removed from his recently appointed Republican National Committee lead counsel position, after two months of internal fighting over the matter. The National Pulse understands that Spies was, in fact, fired upon President Donald J. Trump’s orders several weeks ago, though staffers waited until after the recent RNC Spring Forum at Mar-a-Lago to carry out his orders.
Filipowski’s accurate description of Spies as a “normie” underscores the former Bush and DeSantis lawyer’s closer political connections to the left of American politics than the MAGA right.
Spies, a personal friend of Marc Elias, was the first person to call for the U.S. government to investigate Donald Trump back in 2016. He even tweeted his congratulations to Joe Biden, and repeatedly claimed the 2020 election was free and fair, with no rigging, nor cheating.

A three-year-old girl was killed in what police have labeled an “exchange of gunfire” on Friday night in the U.S. capital of Washington, D.C. Identified as Ty’ah Settles, the child was in a car with a family member at the time of the incident. The incident occurred close to the local police station.
Preliminary investigations by the Metropolitan Police Department indicate that the child was not the intended target, said the department’s Commander, LaShay Makal, during a press briefing. As yet, neither a motive for the incident nor any suspect has been clearly known. Multiple shell casings were found between the 2200 and 2400 blocks of Hartford Street, SE.
The news follows D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser gloating to the press this week about how there had not been a murder in the city in seven days. Just last week, Bowser outright refused to meet with the family of three murdered men.

One of the oft-discussed Vice Presidential nominee picks for President Donald Trump is failing to register in The National Pulse’s straw poll of readers. Senator Marcio Rubio, mooted by the media as a top Trump pick, is currently polling at 0.8 percent amongst the MAGA faithful. The poll shows Senator J.D. Vance in with a whopping lead of 31 percent, with his closest competitor, Vivek Ramaswamy, on 15 percent.
Hot on Vivek’s heels is former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson, with 13.6 percent, followed by Florida Congressman Byron Donalds on 10.2 percent.
The list, below, is not a comprehensive list of everyone who has been floated for the position, and even excludes some National Pulse favorites in an attempt to reflect the currently 12 candidates being considered by President Trump and his operation.
Donald’s Dozen, as The National Pulse has named them, also reveals a skepticism over Senator Tom Cotton (0.6 percent) and Senator Katie Britt (0.1 percent).
Voting closes on Monday, May 6th.

Behind-the-scenes political intrigue exclusively for Pulse+ subscribers.
The left-wing media is now arguing that animals should be considered legal persons and that the “violence” of so-called “ecocide” should be a punishable offense in international law and civil and criminal codes. Writing in the far-left magazine The New Republic, Lydia Millet argues that the Supreme Court’s decision in Citizens United offers the legal precedent to enact such laws.
“Both domestically and internationally, species and ecosystems need to be endowed with legal standing to give local and native stewards the tools to save them from the depredations of industry in the short term and sustain them over the long,” writes Millet. “Accountability for the violence of what some call ‘ecocide’ should be embedded in international law and civil and criminal codes.”
“Luckily, bestowing legal standing on extra-human parties isn’t a fanciful idea,” she writes. “The U.S. Supreme Court did exactly that in the 2010 case known as Citizens United, when it declared that corporations were legal persons—a decision that hobbled American democracy but also set a neat precedent for extending legal personhood to nonhuman entities. And corporations are clearly more abstract and disembodied than animals.”
A GLOBAL MOVEMENT?
Millet also points to the fact that other nations have begun classifying nature and animals as legal persons.
“In New Zealand, a river and a rainforest have been awarded personhood; the people of Ecuador, in 2008, voted to modify their Constitution to recognize the right of nature to exist and flourish; in the United States, the Yurok tribe gave personhood to the Klamath River under tribal law in 2019; and in 2010 Pittsburgh became the first major city to recognize the rights of nature. Those rights have also been enacted into law or invoked by courts in Bolivia, Panama, and India.”
What Millet fails to address is the inevitable implications of declaring animals and natural geographic features legal persons that could have catastrophic effects on human society. Were such blanket measures enacted, hunting, fishing, and farming as we know it might all become illegal. Indeed, current efforts by the Biden regime to “protect” the environment using already available means are predicted to impact energy costs dramatically and will have dire consequences for Americans’ standard of living.
Observers may also note the inherent irony of The New Republic, which appears to publish at least one article per day in favor of the “right” to abortion, arguing that animals are entitled to legal personhood protections while actual baby persons are not.

Donald J. Trump‘s presidential campaign and the Republican National Committee (RNC) are suing the Nevada Secretary of State to prevent counting mail-in ballots received after election day. Nevada election law allows ballots received up to four days after an election to be counted.
“Nevada’s ballot receipt deadline clearly violates federal law and undermines election integrity in the state,” RNC co-chairman Michael Whatley said in a statement. He added: “[T]he RNC and our partners are suing to secure an honest election, support Nevada voters, and oppose unlawful schemes.”
“Congress has established a uniform, national day to elect members of Congress and to appoint presidential electors,” attorneys for the RNC and Trump campaign contend in their lawsuit filed with the U.S. District Court of Nevada. “Nevada effectively extends Nevada’s federal election past the Election Day established by Congress,” the lawsuit argues.
“Nevada runs some of the most secure, transparent, and accessible elections in the country,” Nevada Secretary of State Francisco Aguilar (D) said, defending the state’s mail-in voting policy. “The key for that accessibility is allowing working Nevadans to vote using the method that works best for them, including voting by mail,” Aguilar continued before adding: “Our office will not comment on ongoing litigation, but I hope the RNC is putting as much time and energy into educating voters on how to participate in elections as they put into suing the state of Nevada.”
The Nevada mail-in ballot law challenge is one of 83 election integritylawsuits the RNC has filed in 25 states ahead of November’s presidential election. Fewer than 34,000 votes separated former President Trump from JoeBiden in Nevada’s 2020 presidential election.

Following a lawsuit from conservative legal nonprofit America First Legal (AFL), the Biden government has agreed to disband the Homeland Intelligence Experts Group. The group, formed by Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, consisted of individuals from the private sector designated to give insights on the government’s intelligence and national security endeavors.
Critics contended that the board was more partisan than neutral, expressing concerns over the involvement of figures such as James Clapper, former Director of National Intelligence, and John Brennan, former CIA Director. Both had previously signed a letter questioning the truth behind the Hunter Biden laptop story.
“As a result of our lawsuit in federal court, DHS is surrendering in total to our demands: they are closing down their new partisan intelligence board featuring Clapper and Brennan — which would have been used to promote censored, unethical spying, and gross civil rights invasions of political enemies — and they are surrendering their documents, handing them over to our possession. We won. We beat Biden and DHS,” said AFL President Stephen Miller.
America First Legal, which also represented former acting Director of National Intelligence Ric Grennell in the lawsuit, found that among the political donations made by those appointed to the group, a mere one percent went to Republicans, while 98 percent favored Democrats. Filed in November, the lawsuit accused the group of violating the Federal Advisory Committee Act, citing an alleged bias, a lack of public transparency, and undue influence by the Biden regime.
Although DHS denied any violation, it has agreed to dissolve the group. As per the agreement, the Homeland Intelligence Experts Group will be wound down within 30 days, with no future meetings scheduled and no reconstitution of the group inconsistent with federal law.

Noncitizens are voting in U.S. elections despite the Bidengovernment and corporatemedia claims to the contrary — and are three times more likely to vote for the Democrats. Noncitizens are often able to register and cast ballots due to negligence by election workers or registration drives sponsored by government agencies. A series of criminal cases involving ballots cast by immigrants in North Carolina has revealed some concerning data regarding the frequency of noncitizen voting and which political party they often support.
Federal prosecutors have brought charges against 37 noncitizens who voted in North Carolina’s 2016 election. By a three-to-one ratio, these individuals supported Democrats over Republican candidates. The noncitizens cast 99 ballots in multiple elections dating back as far as 1996. Most of the noncitizen voters only participated in federal elections, with only a handful of ballots cast in local races.
According to one of the federal attorneys who handled most of the North Carolina prosecutions, election officials appeared to register noncitizens they believed would likely support Democrat candidates. In one instance, a noncitizen’s voter registration was accepted only after it became clear he intended to vote for Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election.
One of the noncitizens charged, Eloy Alberto Zayas-Berrier, has been in the United States since 1980. Zayas arrived as part of the Mariel boatlift, which saw over 100,000 Cuban nationals land on American shores. In 2016, Zayas showed up at an early voting location and presented his government-issued work permit to an election worker who allowed him to register as a Democrat and cast a ballot.
A recent incident in South Carolina saw a noncitizen receive multiple voter registration forms after filing for public assistance with the state’s Medicaid office.

Hope Hicks, a former aide to and campaign press secretary for former President Donald J. Trump, took the stand on day seven of Trump’s Manhattan-based ‘hush money’ trial. Former Biden Department of Justice attorney MatthewColangelo — who has a long history of engaging in partisan lawfare against conservatives — handled questioning for the prosecution.
Throughout the day, the prosecution probed Hicks on her relationship with various individuals in Trump‘s orbit, including business associates and campaign staff. Later, District Attorney Alvin Bragg‘s team moved on to the Trump campaign’s response to the Access Hollywood tape before then addressing the alleged Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal affairs.
The prosecution spent most of the morning establishing Hicks’s relationship with the former President, his family, and other members of his inner circle. Colangelo’s questioning focused heavily on the former press secretary’s role in the 2016 Trump presidential campaign. The prosecutor was especially interested in Hicks’s knowledge of and interactions with Michael Cohen, David Pecker, Rhona Graff, and ex-Trump Organization CFO Allen Weisselberg.
Hicks told Colangelo that former President Trump was “very involved” in the day-to-day of his 2016 presidential campaign. Colangelo next pressed her on Michael Cohen and Allen Weisselberg’s roles in the campaign and the Trump Organization. Regarding Cohen, Hicks said she wasn’t sure. “I know he was involved in a couple of the licenses deals for some of the hotel projects and maybe some of the entertainment pieces as well, like Miss Universe pageant,” the former Trump aide responded.
Colangelo next asked Hicks about Allen Weisselberg and what campaign role he played. According to Hicks, the former Trump Organization CFO mainly just assisted with the personal financial disclosure that Trump had to file ahead of the election. When asked about Trump’s relationship with Weisselberg, Hicks acknowledged, “He was a trusted person there.”
Hicks went on to testify that David Pecker and Donald Trump were indeed friends. She noted that she joined the former President for his phone calls with the tabloid newsman. When asked if she was present for the 2015 meeting between Trump and Pecker at Trump Tower, she said, “I don’t have a recollection of that.” Pecker testified last week that Hicks had been in and out of that meeting.
THE ACCESS HOLLYWOOD TAPE.
Just before the lunch break, Colangelo moved on to Hicks’s role regarding the 2016 Trump campaign’s response to the Access Hollywood tape. The infamous video, in which the former President engages in “locker room talk,” appears to be part of the prosecution’s strategy to paint Trump as someone who participates in crude and lascivious behavior.
Hicks recalled the tape being very upsetting to Trump. “He said that didn’t sound like something he would say,” she testified, adding that the former President wanted to see the actual video. She continued, stating the campaign viewed the tape as “damaging” and a “crisis.”
Colangelo pressed Hicks further on Trump’s response after viewing the tape. She responded that the former President “didn’t want to offend anybody.” However, Hicks added, “I think he felt like it was pretty standard stuff for two guys chatting with each other.”
After the tape had become public, Hicks said there were rumors of another video “that would be problematic for the campaign.” Hicks told Colangelo that she asked Michael Cohen to look into the matter. “There was no such tape, regardless, but he chased that down for me,” she said.
THE STORMY DANIELS STORY.
Following lunch, Colangelo moved on to the Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal affair accusations. At this stage, the prosecution hoped to elicit testimony suggesting Trump was concerned about how accusations would impact his campaign just days before the 2016 election. However, that is not what happened.
Hicks said the November 4, 2016, Wall Street Journal story was the first time she became aware of Karen McDougal. She acknowledged that she had heard Story Daniels’s name once before, stating that several security guards on Trump’s plane mentioned her name in 2015 while discussing attendees at a celebrity gold tournament.
After the story broke, Hicks said she reached out to Michael Cohen. “Michael sort of feigned like he didn’t know what I was talking about,” she said.
Addressing the campaign response to the Daniels and McDougal stories, Hicks said former President Trump “wanted to know the context, and he wanted to make sure that there was a denial of any kind of relationship.” She added that Trump wanted to make it “absolutely, unequivocally” clear that he never had a relationship with Daniels.
‘TRUMP MORE CONCERNED ABOUT MELANIA.’
In the most damning moment of the day for District Attorney Bragg‘s prosecution, Hicks unequivocally stated that Trump was solely concerned about how the Stormy Daniels story would impact his family — especially his wife, Melania. “He was concerned about the story. He was concerned about how it would be viewed by his wife, and he wanted me to make sure that the newspapers weren’t delivered to his residence that morning,” Hicks said.
Hicks’s statement directly undermines the prosecution’s assertion that the financial payments to Daniels and McDougal were meant to prevent negative press that would impact his campaign. However, she acknowledged that the story concerned those within the presidential campaign’s inner circle. “Everything we talked about in the context of this time period and this time frame was about whether or not there was an impact on the campaign,” Hicks told Colangelo.
Next, Trump‘s defense attorney, Emil Bove, began his cross-examination. He asked Hicks about the former President’s relationship with his wife. “President Trump really values Mrs. Trump’s opinion, and she doesn’t weigh in all the time, but when she does, it’s really meaningful to him and, you know, he really really respects what she has to say,” she responded. At this point, Hicks became very emotional and began to cry on the stand. Following a break, Bove briefly continued his cross-examination before the court adjourned for the day.
