Warren Buffett Says He’ll Donate $147 Billion to Leftist NGOs When He Dies.

Billionaire Warren Buffett has pledged to give away at least $147 billion to charities and NGOs following his death, tasking his children with spending the money. The 94-year-old Buffet has expressed concern about his children’s longevity, which prompted him to create a backup strategy in case they pass away before being able to give away the fortune. In a recent letter to investors, the 94-year-old stated that he has not yet named a successor in the event his children are unable to fulfill this role.

Buffett remarked candidly about the inevitability of aging, stating, “Father time always wins.” Since 2006, Buffett has been donating significant amounts annually to his children’s charities and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.

The Gates Foundation has been revealed to have engaged in researching how to manipulate people into taking future COVID-19 vaccines, as well as funding a Clinton Health Access Initiative aimed at making developing countries reliant on Chinese-made medical products.

Warren Buffett has also shown an interest in population control, attending a 2009 meeting with billionaires Bill Gates, George Soros, Ted Turner, and others to discuss slowing the global population.

Buffett is also pro-abortion, and tax records released in 2016 revealed that he had donated millions to pro-abortion groups like Planned Parenthood, enough, by some estimates, to pay for the killing of 3.6 million unborn babies.

Trump DHS Proposes Steep Hike in Immigrant Naturalization Fees.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has unveiled a proposal to significantly increase naturalization fees, potentially making citizenship less accessible for lower-income immigrants.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has proposed significant fee increases for naturalization applications, including a jump from $760 to $1,330 for paper filings and from $710 to $1,280 for online filings. The proposal also eliminates reduced fees and fee waivers for most applicants, with exceptions only for military service members.
📺 DETAIL: DHS says the changes are necessary to cover the full cost of adjudication, including expanded background checks, screening, and vetting requirements, and argues that demand for citizenship is unlikely to decline significantly despite higher fees. The proposal would also end reduced fees and most hardship-based waivers currently available to low-income immigrants. The rule has been published in the Federal Register and is open for public comment before any final decision is made.
🎯 IMPACT: The fee increases could delay or deter naturalization for hundreds of thousands of immigrants, particularly lower-income immigrants, while shifting more of the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services’ (USCIS) operating costs directly onto applicants. Notably, fewer naturalized immigrants would likely mean fewer citizens importing foreign family members through chain migration. Public comments on the proposed rule will be accepted for 60 days following its publication in the Federal Register.

Pakistani Labour Party Candidate and Brothers Sentenced for Grooming Gang Crimes.

Three Pakistani brothers, including a former Labour candidate, have been convicted of grooming gang offenses in Sheffield, England, with ringleader Amar Ilyas sentenced in absentia after fleeing to Pakistan.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Three brothers, including a former Labour Party candidate, have been convicted of grooming gang crimes in Sheffield, England.
📺 DETAIL: On Monday, brothers Amar, Kamar, and Kamran Ilyas were sentenced for grooming gang offenses in Sheffield in northern England. Amar Ilyas is a former Labour candidate and youth worker who stood for Sheffield City Council in 2016. The three were convicted for abusing five victims. Amar, the ringleader and eldest brother, was sentenced to 27 years in prison plus one year on an extended license, while his brothers received sentences of just 10 and three years for their roles in the abuse. Amar was found guilty of 20 offenses, including the rape of a 13-year-old girl, while Kamar and Kamran were also convicted of sexual offenses against young girls, including a 12-year-old. Victim impact statements describe how Amar coerced and threatened his victims, including with firearms, to gang rape them with his younger brothers. Amar was sentenced in absentia, having fled to Pakistan before his trial. The judge at Sheffield Crown Court described Amar’s escape to Pakistan as “deliberately avoiding these proceedings for no other reason than cowardice.”
💬 KEY QUOTE: “She and the other four have been heard and they have been believed.” – Mr Justice Hampton at Sheffield Crown Court, praising the bravery of the victims
🎯 IMPACT: The case raises significant questions about party selection processes and general safeguarding, considering that Amar is both a former candidate for the local council and a former social worker. This is just part of a much broader nationwide trend of largely Pakistani Muslim grooming gangs abusing thousands of girls across the country.
📺 FLASHBACK: This is not the first case of its kind. In early June this year, a boat migrant from Iran was convicted of sexually abusing children in Britain before going on the run. Sharam Muhamadi, a 21-year-old Iranian migrant who arrived in Britain via a small boat, was arrested with fellow grooming gang member Bawan Hawre, a 28-year-old Iraqi migrant. Their victims ranged from ages 12 to 16

Trump-Endorsed Candidate Secures Colombian Presidency.

Colombia has elected the Trump-backed candidate, Abelardo De La Espriella, to serve as President, continuing Latin America’s recent rightward political shift.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Abelardo De La Espriella, a Colombian presidential candidate backed by President Donald J. Trump, has won the country’s presidential election.
📺 DETAIL: De La Espriella secured 49.66 percent of the vote in the run-off election against Senator Ivan Cepeda, who secured 48.70 percent of the vote. Whereas Cepeda campaigned to continue the far-left policies of outgoing far-left President Gustavo Petro, the first left-wing president of Colombia in recent history, De La Espriella vowed to crack down on terrorists and criminal organizations while cutting taxes and expanding the country’s oil and gas sector. “I will govern for all Colombians, for those who voted for me and for those who chose the other candidate,” De La Espriella announced to supporters following the results. Similar to President Trump’s election back in 2016, De La Espriella has no prior political experience, having previously worked as a businessman and a lawyer. Over 26 million Colombians voted in the run-off election, which took place over the weekend.
🎯 IMPACT: De La Espriella’s victory reflects a broader trend across Latin America, where right-wing candidates have recently gained power in several nations. Right-wing candidates have won recently in Argentina, Bolivia, Costa Rica, Chile, Ecuador, and Paraguay, with conservative Keiko Fujimori, daughter of Alberto Fujimori, former President of Peru, also on track to win the presidency in Peru. This trend coincides with the decision of the Trump administration to slash funds given to far-left non-government organizations (NGOs) via the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). Despite his victory in the run-off election, De La Espriella faces a fragmented Congress. At present, the Petro-founded, far-left Historic Pact party holds the largest number of seats in both Colombia’s Chamber of Representatives and the Senate, albeit without an outright majority in either. Colombia’s recent election comes during a time when the country faces significant challenges with public debt and has endured over 60 years of conflict involving leftist guerrilla organizations and drug-trafficking cartels.
💬 KEY QUOTE:I will govern for all Colombians, for those who voted for me and for those who chose the other candidate.” – Abelardo De La Espriella, President-elect of Colombia
📺 FLASHBACK: In March, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) directed federal prosecutors to open criminal investigations into Gustavo Petro, Colombia’s outgoing far-left president, over alleged meetings with drug traffickers as well as allegations that he accepted campaign contributions from criminal organizations.

Five Arrested for Reflecting Pool Vandalism, Officials Confirm.

Authorities have arrested five people for allegedly vandalizing the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, as President Donald J. Trump calls for strict penalties ahead of the United States’ 250th birthday.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: At least five people have been arrested for allegedly vandalizing the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool in Washington, D.C.
📺 DETAIL: The arrests of at least five people, along with additional citations for five others, were announced on Monday. This followed comments from President Donald J. Trump on Saturday, who vowed extensive prison time for those found guilty, including a potential 10-year prison sentence for destruction of national landmarks. “Please remember that there is a 10-year prison sentence for the destruction, or even the attempted destruction, of such things — Which will be fully enforced!” the President declared on Truth Social on Monday. Trump said that vandals cut “a 300-foot-long gash” in the Pool. Following a meeting at Camp David with contractors over the weekend, the President, having conducted a personal inspection, said that chemicals were illegally introduced into the pool, causing significant damage, and that the pool would need to be drained. Trump also noted the recent vandalism of the nearby grass with the numbers “86 47,” the same numbers used in an Instagram post by former Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) James Comey last year. “The beautiful new grass field has been destroyed with a giant 86 47 chemically carved into it (Probably inspired by Dirty Cop, James Comey!),” the President posted on Truth Social.
🎯 IMPACT: The alleged vandalism comes just weeks before the United States’ 250th birthday on July 4, 2026. This story has heightened concerns about the safety and preservation of national landmarks, especially after similar acts of vandalism occurred at the National Mall in Washington, D.C., earlier this month.

Texas Grandmother Killed by ‘Autopilot’ Tesla Crashing Into Her Home.

A Tesla Model 3, claimed to be on Autopilot by its driver, crashed into a Texas home, killing a 76-year-old grandmother.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: A Tesla Model 3 crashed into a home in Katy, Texas, killing 76-year-old Martha Avila, who was inside the residence. The driver, Michael Butler, claimed the vehicle was operating on Autopilot at the time of the crash, which caused extensive damage to the home and displaced the family living there.
📺 DETAIL: Avila was airlifted to a nearby hospital but later died from her injuries. Officials said Butler showed no signs of intoxication and has been cooperating with investigators, while the Harris County Sheriff’s Office Vehicular Crimes Division continues to examine the cause of the crash. The impact caused extensive damage to the home, which has been deemed uninhabitable, displacing Avila’s daughter, her bereaved husband, and their three children. Family members said the vehicle crashed into the children’s playroom, though no children were injured. Last year, Tesla was forced to pay $329 million following another Autopilot crash that killed a young couple.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “I don’t know if it’s his fault or the car’s fault or what really happened. I’ve never seen a car go that fast.” – Jennifer Barbour, Martha Avila’s daughter
🎯 IMPACT: The tragedy has left a family grieving and displaced, with a GoFundMe campaign launched to help cover emergency expenses and funeral costs. The incident has also raised questions about the safety and reliability of Tesla’s Autopilot system, which has previously been found largely responsible for prior crash deaths.
📺 FLASHBACK: Tesla’s Autopilot system has faced criticism in the past over its role in a number of accidents, with ongoing debates about its safety and the responsibility of drivers when using the feature.

A gun battle in a Jewish neighborhood in Montreal, Canada, has left at least three dead, including a police officer and the suspect.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: A gunman in a Jewish area of Montreal’s Côte-des-Neiges neighborhood has left at least one civilian and one police officer dead, and another police officer critically injured. Police say the shooter has also been “neutralized.”
📰 DETAIL: The Monday gun battle prompted a public safety alert urging residents to stay indoors away from windows and lock their doors. Witnesses described the scene as chaotic, with parents rushing to protect their children as shots rang out.
🎯 IMPACT: The incident has left the community in shock. As of the time of publication, the motive behind the attack remains unknown or undisclosed, and the police have not released the suspect’s name or ethnic, religious, or immigration background. Canada’s Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs (CIJA) has said it is “closely monitoring the situation” and urged community members to “exercise vigilance” as they wait for more details to emerge. The civilian who was killed is reported to be a Jewish man.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “It is with immense sadness that we confirm the death of one of our police officers in the line of duty.” – Montreal police statement

Anti-ICE Agitator Hit by Car While Flying Inverted American Flag at Detention Facility.

A pro-illegal immigrant activist outside an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention center in Newark, New Jersey, was hit by a car while flying an inverted U.S. flag.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: A leftist anti-ICE activist was struck by a car outside the Delaney Hall ICE detention facility in Newark on Father’s Day as demonstrators gathered to demand the release of illegal immigrants. Video footage showed the woman, who was waving an upside-down American flag while standing in the roadway, being hit by a red Dodge Challenger before rolling off the vehicle. She appeared to avoid serious injury.
📺 DETAIL: Activist group Visible Brigade said the activist had traveled from Minnesota and did not seek medical treatment. The identity of the driver remains unconfirmed. Activists also reported that ICE agents used pepper spray during the demonstration. It drew dozens of participants carrying signs reading “Free the dads, close the camps” amid ongoing unrest at the facility, where detainees have previously staged hunger strikes over supposedly poor living conditions. Federal officials have denied claims of inhumane treatment, stating that ICE detention standards exceed those of many U.S. prisons. The facility has been the scene of repeated clashes in recent weeks, resulting in multiple arrests, including 12 people accused earlier this month of assaulting federal officers.
🎯 IMPACT: The incident is just the latest act of violence around the Delaney Hall facility, which has been a hub for Antifa extremist activity in recent weeks.

Judge Blocks DOJ’s Grand Jury Subpoenas of Tim Walz and Other Minnesota Officials.

A federal judge ruled that the Trump administration’s subpoenas targeting Minnesota officials were retaliatory and unlawful, undermining grand jurors.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: A federal judge struck down six grand jury subpoenas secured by the Trump administration against Minnesota state and local government offices, including Governor Tim Walz (D) and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey (D). U.S. District Judge Patrick Schiltz claimed the subpoenas were retaliatory and aimed at coercing cooperation with federal immigration enforcement.
📺 DETAIL: Judge Schiltz ruled that the subpoenas were a misuse of the grand jury process, intended to pressure Minnesota officials into supporting Operation Metro Surge, a federal immigration enforcement effort. The subpoenas were issued after Minnesota officials filed a lawsuit to block the operation. Judge Schiltz claims that the Department of Justice (DOJ) failed to provide legitimate investigatory justification for the subpoenas.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “Using grand jury proceedings to pressure political opponents into taking official action… is a blatantly unlawful and unethical use of the grand-jury process.” – Judge Patrick Schiltz
🎯 IMPACT: The ruling delivers a legal setback to the Trump administration’s efforts to stop state Democrats from sabotaging federal immigration enforcement through sanctuary policies and other disruptive actions. Notably, Walz and other senior Minnesota Democrats are also under pressure for their role in allegedly facilitating or covering up widespread fraud—much of it connected to the Somali community—with Vice President J.D. Vance recently referring Walz for criminal investigation following a damning House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform report.

Judge Rejects Bid by Suspect in WHCA Dinner Assassination Attempt to Disqualify Blanche and Pirro from Case.

A federal judge has ruled that acting Attorney General Todd Blanche and U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro can remain on the case of an attempted assassination of President Trump.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: A federal judge has denied a motion to disqualify acting Attorney General Todd Blanche and U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro from prosecuting Cole Allen, the suspect in an assassination attempt against President Donald J. Trump and senior officials at the White House Correspondents’ Association (WHCA) dinner in April.
📰 DETAIL: Cole Allen is accused of attempting to assassinate President Trump by storming a security checkpoint and discharging a weapon at the WHCA dinner, injuring a Secret Service agent. The defense argued for disqualification on the grounds of the officials’ presence at the event, and Pirro’s personal connection to Trump.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “In line with longstanding precedent, the Court finds that neither the officials’ dinner attendance nor their statements after the fact demonstrate a conflict of interest. Nor does Pirro’s friendship with the President,” wrote Judge Trevor McFadden.
🎯 IMPACT: The ruling allows Blanche and Pirro to continue their roles in the high-profile prosecution. Cole Allen has pleaded not guilty to the charges.
👀 FLASHBACK: This WHCA dinner episode marked the third assassination attempt against Trump, following previous attempts by Thomas Matthew Crooks in Butler, Pennsylvania, and Ryan Routh in Palm Beach, Florida. Crooks was killed by counter-snipers after wounding Trump and two supporters and killing rally attendee Corey Comperatore, and Routh was apprehended and convicted after being spotted a short distance from Trump and fleeing the scene. During his attempted escape, Routh allegedly caused a multi-car pile-up that almost killed six-year-old Mia Rosalie Monreal and left her with a devastating brain injury.

Iranian Oil Exports Climb as Peace Deal Eases Trade Restrictions.

The Islamic Republic of Iran is exporting a record amount of crude oil through the Strait of Hormuz following negotiations with the United States and an agreement to end blockades of the vital passage.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Iranian oil exports have sharply increased following the re-opening of the Strait of Hormuz. 
📺 DETAIL: The Strait of Hormuz is a vital chokepoint in the global oil trade, with approximately 20 percent of oil exports passing through it. The spike in Iranian crude oil exports follows the signing of the basic terms of a peace agreement between the United States and Iran last week. This coincided with negotiations in Switzerland on Sunday and followed a memorandum of understanding on Wednesday last week. Among other actions, the deal ended both the U.S. blockade of Iran and the Iranian blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. The deal is part of a broader attempt to bring an end to the war between the U.S. and Iran, which began in late February following U.S. and Israeli strikes on the Islamic Republic. Approximately six million barrels on three U.S.-sanctioned supertankers passing through Hormuz early Monday reportedly headed for Singapore in southeast Asia. Iranian crude oil typically transits through Singapore for delivery to China, which depends heavily on Iranian oil and has served as a key trading partner for the Islamic Republic.
🎯 IMPACT: The resumption of Iranian oil exports signals a significant economic and geopolitical shift; specifically, that normalcy may be gradually returning to the region following months of conflict. It also suggests that the Islamic Republic is using the peace agreement to boost its energy trade.
📺 FLASHBACK: Just days before the peace deal between the U.S. and Iran was scheduled to be signed in Switzerland, two Iranian tankers successfully passed through the U.S. blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, suggesting enforcement was easing. In response to news of a deal between Washington and Tehran, global oil prices fell earlier this month, relieving the inflationary pressures created by the conflict.
