Illegal Immigrant Beheads Hotel Manager, Trump Responds.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: A hotel manager in Dallas, Texas, Chandra Nagamallaiah, was brutally murdered by an illegal alien.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: The victim, Chandra Nagamallaiah, the perpetrator—an illegal alien from Cuba, and President Donald J. Trump.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The murder took place in Dallas, Texas.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Rest assured, the time for being soft on these Illegal Immigrant Criminals is OVER under my watch!” – Donald Trump

🎯IMPACT: The killing has redoubled calls for stricter immigration enforcement.

IN FULL

President Donald J. Trump has condemned the brutal killing of an Indian hotel manager, Chandra Mouli Nagamallaiah, in Dallas, allegedly by a Cuban illegal immigrant. Nagamallaiah, 50, was reportedly attacked with a machete by his co-worker, Yordanis Cobos-Martinez, and decapitated following an argument over a broken washing machine.

On Truth Social, President Trump wrote, “This individual was previously arrested for terrible crimes, including child sex abuse, grand theft auto, and false imprisonment, but was released back into our Homeland under incompetent Joe Biden because Cuba did not want such an evil person in their Country.”

“Rest assured, the time for being soft on these Illegal Immigrant Criminals is OVER under my watch!” he added, stating that Cobos-Martinez will be charged with first-degree murder.

The murder occurred in front of the victim’s wife and child at the Downtown Suites Motel, where both men worked.

According to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the accused had a final order of removal and was previously held at a detention facility in Dallas before being released in January when Cuban authorities refused repatriation due to his criminal background.

The case has sparked renewed attention to the broader issue of criminal illegal aliens. In recent months, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has ramped up arrests of illegals with serious criminal records. The Trump administration has struck deals with third countries, such as Swaziland, to take migrants like Cobos-Martinez who cannot easily be deported to their home countries.

IN FULL

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) apprehended two men accused of placing an incendiary device under a FOX 13 Salt Lake City news vehicle in Magna, Utah, on Friday. The device, planted 47 miles from the site of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk’s assassination at Utah Valley University in Orem, failed to detonate after being ignited, and was discovered beneath the vehicle.

Unified Fire Authority Investigations officer Jeffrey David Nelson stated in an affidavit, “Due to the nature of the device and its placement, this incident constituted a significant threat to public safety.”

The suspects, Adeeb Nasir, 58, and Adil Justice Ahmed Nasir, 31, were detained in Salt Lake County Jail on Sunday without bail. They face charges including terrorism threats, possession of weapons of mass destruction, aggravated arson, and possession of explosive devices. Court records indicate that Adeeb Nasir is a Pakistani immigrant with U.S. citizenship who sometimes uses the alias “Eddie Nash.”

A raid on the suspects’ home on Saturday uncovered additional evidence, including firearms, explosives, illegal narcotics, and related paraphernalia, beyond the scope of the initial warrant. Court orders confirmed that neither suspect was legally permitted to possess firearms due to prior drug use.

FOX 13 Station Manager Leona Wood said the station is “working closely with law enforcement and our risk management team, with the safety of our employees as our top priority.”

Farage’s Reform Party Scores Major Parliamentary Defection.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: Conservative (Tory) Party Member of Parliament (MP) Danny Kruger has defected to Nigel Farage’s Reform Party, becoming the first sitting Tory MP to do so since the last election.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Danny Kruger, Nigel Farage.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Announced during a press conference; Kruger represents the East Wiltshire constituency (electoral district) in the House of Commons.

💬KEY QUOTE: “The Conservatives are over.” – Danny Kruger

🎯IMPACT: Kruger’s move signals further fractures within the Conservative Party as Farage’s party supplants it on the British right.

IN FULL

Conservative (Tory) Party Member of Parliament (MP) Danny Kruger has become the first sitting Tory MP to defect to Nigel Farage’s Reform Party since the 2024 election. Kruger, who has represented the East Wiltshire constituency (electoral district) in the House of Commons since 2019, was previously a political secretary to former Prime Minister Boris Johnson, and a member of current Tory leader Kemi Badenoch’s shadow work and pensions team.

Speaking at a press conference alongside Reform leader Nigel Farage, Kruger declared, “The Conservatives are over.” The centuries-old right-establishment party governed from 2010 to mid-2024, earning its biggest parliamentary majority since Margaret Thatcher in 2019—only to see a dramatic collapse in support in the 2024 general election amid record-breaking mass migration.

Speaking to Farage in 2023, before the Conservatives had been ousted, President Donald J. Trump told Farage they “really weren’t staying conservative… they were literally going far left,” adding: “It never made sense.”

Kruger said that he had been “honored” to join Reform’s efforts to prepare for government and expressed his hope that Farage would become Prime Minister. He said of his former party, “The rule of our time in office was failure. Bigger government, social decline, lower wages, higher taxes, and less of what ordinary people actually wanted.” He described the Conservative Party as “divided” with a “toxic brand.”

Kruger is the second Conservative MP to join Reform, following Lee Anderson, who had the Conservative whip withdrawn from him ahead of the 2024 election for saying that Islamists had “got control of [London Mayor Sadiq] Khan and they’ve got control of London, and they’ve got control of [Labour Party leader Sir Keir] Starmer as well.”

Library of Congress Names Kamala Harris Donor America’s New Poet Laureate.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: The Library of Congress has named Arthur Sze as the new U.S. Poet Laureate, succeeding Ada Limón. However, Sze could face resistance as the poet has a long history of contributing to Democrat campaigns, including Kamala Harris’s 2024 presidential run.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Arthur Sze, acting Librarian Robert Randolph Newlen, President Donald J. Trump, and Kamala Harris.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The announcement was made Monday, with Sze’s term beginning this fall at the Library of Congress.

💬KEY QUOTE: “I think it was the opportunity to give something back to poetry, to something that I’ve spent my life doing.” – Arthur Sze

🎯IMPACT: Sze’s appointment comes during a turbulent time for the Library, with the former Librarian Carla Hayden having been removed earlier this year for using the office to push a radical and partisan leftist agenda.

IN FULL

The Library of Congress has named Arthur Sze—the first Poet Laureate of Santa Fe, New Mexico, and professor emeritus at the Institute of American Indian Arts—as the next U.S. Poet Laureate. However, the move will likely draw a swift reaction from the Trump White House and its allies, as Sze is a longtime Democrat donor, contributing to Kamala Harris‘s failed 2024 presidential campaign against President Donald J. Trump. In addition, Sze has contributed to the Joe Biden campaign, Raphael Warnock’s U.S. campaign in Georgia, the Democratic National Committee (DNC), the Barack Obama campaign, and John Kerry’s 2004 challenge to then-President George W. Bush.

Federal Election Commission (FEC) records show an extensive history of Sze contributing to Democrat candidates, making his appointment under a Republican administration an oddity. The appointment is especially strange in light of President Trump’s dismissal of the Librarian of Congress earlier this year. Carla Hayden was removed from her position after it was revealed she had used the office to push a radical and partisan leftist agenda. Currently, Robert Randolph Newlen—a long-time official with the Library of Congress—is serving as acting Librarian.

Sze, 74, will serve a one-year term starting this fall, taking over from Ada Limón, who held the position for three years. A son of Chinese immigrants, Sze says he accepted the position as an opportunity to give back to the art form that has defined much of his life. “So many people have helped me along the way. Poetry has just helped me grow so much, in every way,” he said.

In addition to his original poetry, Sze is known for his translations of Chinese poetry, which he credits with helping him develop his craft. As Poet Laureate, Sze will serve as a literary ambassador, tasked with raising national awareness and appreciation for poetry.

Trump Considers National Emergency Declaration in Clash with DC Mayor.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: President Donald J. Trump criticized Washington, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser and threatened to declare a national emergency over crime in the city.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Donald Trump, Mayor Muriel Bowser, the National Guard, and the Metropolitan Police Department.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Washington, D.C., with Trump’s remarks posted on Truth Social on Monday.

💬KEY QUOTE: “If I allowed this to happen, CRIME would come roaring back. To the people and businesses of Washington, D.C., DON’T WORRY, I AM WITH YOU, AND WON’T ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN. I’ll call a National Emergency, and Federalize, if necessary!!!” – Donald Trump

🎯IMPACT: Crime statistics decreased during the federal law enforcement surge, but protests and debates over federal intervention remain ongoing.

IN FULL

President Donald J. Trump has warned of a potential national emergency declaration in Washington, D.C., criticizing Mayor Muriel Bowser’s approach to crime and immigration enforcement. In a post on Truth Social, Trump claimed his previous deployment of the National Guard had significantly reduced crime in the capital, but he warned that ceasing cooperation with ICE could reverse those gains.

“The Federal Government, under my auspices as President of the United States of America, has stepped into the complete criminal mess that was Washington, D.C., our Nation’s Capital,” Trump wrote. He further stated that D.C. went from being “one of the most dangerous and murder-ridden cities in the U.S.A.” to “one of the safest – In just a few weeks.”

Trump’s remarks follow the expiration of his 30-day emergency declaration, during which federal law enforcement, including the National Guard, was deployed in the city. The White House shared data indicating over 2,100 arrests during the deployment period, with violent crime reportedly down 39 percent compared to last year. Homicides dropped by 53 percent, and carjackings saw an 87 percent decrease, according to Metropolitan Police Department figures.

Mayor Bowser, who initially supported the federal intervention, highlighted the importance of the surge in reducing crime. “We know that when carjackings go down, when use of guns goes down, when homicide or robbery go down, neighborhoods feel safer and are safer,” she said during a press conference on August 27. However, she has not yet responded to Trump’s latest comments.

Protests erupted earlier this month against the deployment of federal law enforcement, with demonstrators opposing what they described as an overreach of federal authority. Trump, however, has maintained that his actions were necessary to “re-establish law, order, and public safety” in the capital.

Utah Governor: Charlie Kirk’s Assassin Had Trans Partner, Was Steeped in ‘Leftist Ideology.’

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin, Tyler Robinson, had ties to a transgender partner and leftist ideology, according to Utah Governor Spencer Cox (R).

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Charlie Kirk, Tyler Robinson, Spencer Cox, and Robinson’s transgender partner.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Kirk was killed on Wednesday during an American Comeback Tour event on the Utah Valley University campus. Details about Robinson were disclosed in interviews on Sunday.

💬KEY QUOTE: “There clearly was a leftist ideology with this—with this assassin.” – Spencer Cox

🎯IMPACT: Kirk’s assassination has intensified debates on the dangers of transgenderism, political violence, and far-left extremism.

IN FULL

Utah Governor Spencer Cox (R) stated on Sunday that Tyler Robinson, accused of assassinating Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk last week, was romantically involved with a transgender partner and held leftist ideological views. Cox shared these details during an interview on CNN’s State of the Union.

“Yes, I can confirm that,” Cox responded when questioned about Robinson’s relationship with a transgender. He added, “The roommate was a romantic partner, a male transitioning to a female. This partner has been incredibly cooperative, had no idea that this was happening, and is working with investigators right now.”

Cox further explained that Robinson, a 22-year-old expected to face charges on Tuesday, appeared to embrace leftist beliefs, according to statements from his family and friends. “There clearly was a leftist ideology with this—with this assassin,” Cox said. He cautioned that it remains uncertain whether the transition of Robinson’s partner was a motivating factor.

Turning Point USA has scheduled a memorial service for Kirk on September 21 in a football stadium near Phoenix, Arizona, with President Donald J. Trump confirming his attendance.

Trump Admin Backs Condemnation of Israel’s Qatar Strike at UN Security Council.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: The United Nations Security Council (UNSC) condemned an Israeli strike on a residential compound in Doha, Qatar, targeting senior Hamas members.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Israel, Hamas, the United Nations Security Council, Qatari Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-Thani, and U.S. officials.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The strike occurred in Doha, Qatar, with an emergency meeting convened in New York at the United Nations (UN) headquarters.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Israel, led by blusterous extremists, has gone beyond any borders, any limitations when it comes to behaviour.” – Qatari Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-Thani.

🎯IMPACT: The statement marks a rare unanimous decision by the Security Council, including U.S. backing, and raises questions about fraying U.S.-Israel relations.

IN FULL

The United Nations Security Council (UNSC) unanimously condemned an Israeli strike on a residential compound in Doha, Qatar that targeted senior Hamas figures. The council’s statement—supported by all 15 members, including the United States, did not explicitly name Israel, but made clear its objections to the strike.

In an emergency session, Qatar’s Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al‑Thani said, “Israel, led by blusterous extremists, has gone beyond any borders, any limitations when it comes to behaviour. We are unable to predict what Israel will do.” He warned the assault forced the international community “before a test.”

Israel’s envoy, Danny Danon, defended the bombing. saying, “This strike sends a message that should echo across this chamber. There is no sanctuary for terrorists, not in Gaza, not in Tehran, not in Doha.”

Hamas reported that its negotiating team survived the strike but said five people were killed, including the son of its chief negotiator, Khalil al‑Hayya. A Qatari security officer was also among the dead.

President Donald J. Trump criticized the attack, saying, “Unilaterally bombing inside Qatar, a sovereign nation and close ally of the United States, that is working very hard, and bravely taking risks with us to broker peace, does not advance Israel or America’s goals.”

Notably, Qatar hosts a large U.S. military base, and recently struck a trade and investment deal with President Trump, with many suggesting that Israel conducting such a strike on the Gulf state’s capital regardless undermines American interests.

State Legislature Approves Trump-Endorsed GOP Redistricting Plan.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: The Missouri state legislature passed a redistricting plan that could add another Republican-leaning House seat.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Missouri lawmakers, Republican Gov. Mike Kehoe, President Donald J. Trump, and Missouri Democratic Rep. Emanuel Cleaver.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The plan was passed on Friday in Missouri and awaits the governor’s signature.

💬KEY QUOTE: “A new, much fairer, and much improved, Congressional Map, has now overwhelmingly passed both Chambers of the Missouri Legislature.” – Donald Trump

🎯IMPACT: The new map could shift Missouri to seven Republican-leaning districts and one Democratic-leaning district, potentially strengthening the GOP in the House of Representatives.

IN FULL

Missouri lawmakers have approved a new congressional redistricting plan that could shift the state’s political arithmetic further in favor of Republicans. The state senate passed the plan on Friday, sending it to Republican Governor Mike Kehoe, who has already signaled his intention to sign it into law. The state house had approved the measure earlier in the week.

The newly drawn map would divide the Kansas City area in a way that makes Democratic Representative Emanuel Cleaver’s district more conservative-leaning. If enacted, the changes would alter Missouri’s congressional makeup from the current six Republican-leaning and two Democrat-leaning districts to a seven-to-one split.

President Donald J. Trump has endorsed the Missouri plan, applauding lawmakers on Truth Social. He wrote that the new map “will, hopefully, give us an additional Seat in Congress” and help send another “MAGA Republican to Congress.”

“A new, much fairer, and much improved, Congressional Map, has now overwhelmingly passed both Chambers of the Missouri Legislature,” he added.

Missouri’s redistricting push follows similar efforts in other key states. In Texas, Republican Governor Greg Abbott recently signed a bill that increases the number of GOP-leaning districts from 25 to 30 out of 38, cutting five Democratic-leaning seats in the process. In California, Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom has proposed shifting redistricting powers away from the state’s independent commission and placing them under legislative control in retaliation for the Texan redistricting move.

However, Newsom’s scheme has been met with public backlash, with a recent poll showing nearly two-thirds of Californians oppose it.

Secret Service Agent Suspended for Cheering Charlie Kirk’s Assassination.

PULSE POINTS

❓WHAT HAPPENED: A Secret Service agent has reportedly been suspended after mocking the assassination of Charlie Kirk,

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Charlie Kirk, Agent Anthony Pough, and the U.S. Secret Service (USSS).

📍WHEN & WHERE: Plough made his comments on September 10; he was reportedly suspended on September 12.

💬KEY QUOTE: “[I]f you are Mourning this guy .. [sic] delete me. He spewed hatred and racism on his show.” – Anthony Pough

🎯IMPACT: Pough is just one of many people losing their jobs as a result of glorifying the death of Kirk on social media.

IN FULL

A U.S. Secret Service (USSS) agent has been suspended and may soon be fired after mocking the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, who was shot and killed on September 10. Pough had blamed “karma” for Kirk’s murder saying, “[I]f you are Mourning this guy .. [sic] delete me. He spewed hatred and racism on his show.”

Pough added, “At the end of the day, you answer to GOD and speak things into existence. You can only circumvent karma, she doesn’t leave.”

He also had a history of opposing Trump administration initiatives, including the ban on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies, saying, “DEI stops NEPOTISM.”

In the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination at Utah Valley University, several public figures have faced backlash for comments accused of mocking or minimizing his death. A video emerged showing Representative Ilhan Omar (D‑MN) and former MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan laughing as they criticized Kirk’s past statements immediately following his killing.

Meanwhile, MSNBC terminated political analyst Matthew Dowd after he appeared to suggest that Kirk had, through his political style and rhetoric, invited “hateful action” against himself. Dowd later apologized, stating he never intended to imply Kirk was to blame for his murder.

The Pentagon has issued a “zero tolerance” directive for military personnel and Department of War civilians, warning that any celebration or mockery of Kirk’s assassination is strictly forbidden.
