Pam Bondi Orders FULL INVESTIGATION into Nick Sortor’s Unjust Arrest in Portland – Investigation Will Be Led By No-Nonsense Assistant AG Harmeet Dhillon

The Trump Administration is taking action following the arrest of one of the most prominent conservative journalists in America.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Portland Police arrested Sortor on Thursday night after he defended himself from Antifa thugs. The woman who attacked him was not arrested.

X user Mark Wilson shared a clip showing Sortor being led away in handcuffs. “Portland PD arrested a journalist, but none of the domestic terrorists,” he wrote.

Sortor explained to Fox News’s Bill Melugin that he was getting video of Antifa fascists crying after getting maced by federal agents. Then, the agitators swarmed him, shoved him down into a flower bed, and someone threw a punch.

Sortor responded by swinging back but missing. He then disengaged and walked over to a group of Portland PD.

The police, though, responded by arresting him and charging him with disorderly conduct.

Now, Sortor has revealed that the Portland Police are about to find out.

U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi revealed to Sortor that she has ordered a full investigation into Sortor’s ridiculous arrest. No-nonsense Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon will lead the investigation.

“BREAKING: Attorney General Pam Bondi has ORDERED a full investigation, led by Asst. AG Harmeet Dhillon, of the Portland Police Bureau, following my wrongful arrest last night, Bondi confirmed to me,” Sortor wrote.

“FAFO, @PortlandPolice,” he added.” @AGPamBondi personally called me to deliver this news, and I’m incredibly grateful to her for doing so.”

“The Trump DOJ WILL NOT allow Portland Police to continue to do the bidding of Antifa.”

Trump’s base (apart from the Zionists) is increasingly restive. Venezuela, Iran, Israel, Ukraine policies are deeply unpopular. The economy is becoming toast. How will he move to regain popularity?

Does President Trump think a new war or two can save him? Nope—his BS maneuvers bombing Iran were a joke, a fake show of strength that bought him absolutely nothing except loss of respect.

UKRAINE

His claim of concern for the waste of life in Ukraine led to no reasonable offers to end that conflict. Here is what the West did to Russia (and the US still leads the West) to provoke this war:

  1. Trashed the 2014 Maidan agreement
  2. Built up a large Ukraine army and transferred many arms to Ukraine subsequently
  3. Applied very strict sanctions on Russia
  4. Encouraged neo-Nazi elements in Ukraine to continually terrorize the Russian-speaking eastern regions, killing about 15,000 citizens
  5. Placed criminal, compromised Zelinsky (a comedian) in as President to do the West’s bidding
  6. Attempted to blow up all 4 Nordstrom pipelines that brought Russian gas to Europe, and managed to blow up 3 with 2 charges placed on one line

Well, the West, its NATO and the US have expended a huge amount of money and lives in hopes of grabbing Russia’s resources after chewing up most of the fat in their own countries. And look where it has gotten them. The crazed European leaders with open immigration, Net Zero, 15 minute cities, etc., in addition to election thefts and now sending troops to Ukraine, have destroyed their countries’ economies. And lost all shred of dignity and morality. They are desperate, cornered, and we fear where they will go from here. Will the US go with them?

ISRAEL

Meanwhile, the West encouraged Netanyahu to impose the final solution on Gaza—putting his country’s future at grave risk, encouraging antisemitism everywhere, and murdering and terrorizing millions of innocent civilians. Using the excuse of Hamas’ terrorism. But we can never forget that Israel funded Hamas or allowed Qatar to fund Hamas—it is one or the other, the facts are very clear—supposedly to keep Gaza from allying with the West Bank. But what if it was also to lay the groundwork for an October 7 excuse to empty Gaza of its 2 million inhabitants?

Why is Trump handing Israel the weapons to continue its “war” in Gaza? This is no war, it is a massacre. Simply look at the casualty figures if you disagree with me.

Trans Democrat Attacked ICE Agents. Now She’s Asking the Public for Bail Donations.

A Portland transgender activist pleaded guilty this week to felony charges after attempting to intimidate federal immigration officers with a knife and later resisting arrest. 

Despite the serious nature of the crimes, the defendant has now turned to crowdfunding to solicit donations for bail.

Julie Winters, 47, of Portland, admitted in federal court to one count of Felony Intimidation of a Federal Officer and one count of Resisting Arrest. 

According to court documents, on June 24, 2025, Winters confronted officers at the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) office in South Portland armed with a large knife. 

Prosecutors stated Winters swung the weapon back and forth in an effort to scare off officers who were attempting to engage with her. The incident was treated as a direct threat to federal law enforcement personnel.

Following the June confrontation, Winters was released on pretrial conditions. However, she violated those terms just weeks later. 

On August 20, 2025, she appeared at the Pretrial Services Office in Portland, where U.S. Marshals attempted to arrest her on a federal warrant. 

Court records show she resisted by making “forcible contact” with deputy marshals during the arrest attempt. 

The defendant was subdued and taken into custody without serious injuries reported.

China is starting to talk about AI superintelligence, and some in the U.S. are taking notice

Early last week in the Chinese tech hub of Hangzhou, a slick, larger-than-life video screen beamed out four words that would drive tech giant Alibaba’s stock to historic levels and signal a shift in China’s approach to artificial intelligence: “Roadmap to Artificial Superintelligence.”

During his 23-minute keynote address at the flagship Alibaba Cloud conference, Alibaba CEO Eddie Wu charted out a future featuring artificial general intelligence (AGI) and artificial superintelligence (ASI). These terms point to a theorized era in which AI becomes roughly as smart as humans (AGI) and then much, much smarter (ASI).

While these terms have been tossed around Silicon Valley for years, Wu’s presentation was notable: Alibaba is now the first established Chinese tech giant to explicitly invoke AGI and ASI.

“Achieving AGI — an intelligent system with general human-level cognition — now appears inevitable. Yet AGI is not the end of AI’s development, but its beginning,” Wu said. “It will march toward ASI — intelligence beyond the human, capable of self-iteration and continuous evolution.”

“ASI will drive exponential technological leaps, carrying us into an unprecedented age of intelligence,” Wu said, highlighting ASI’s ability to help cure diseases, discover cleaner sources of energy and even unlock interstellar travel.

The U.S. and China are the world’s leading AI powers, each with immense computing capabilities and top-tier researchers developing cutting-edge systems. Yet observers have framed the countries as having different approaches to AI, with perceptions that China focuses more on real-world AI applications.

For example, commentators recently argued that Beijing is currently “winning the race for AI robots” against the U.S., as China is home to much of the world’s most advanced robotics supply chains and a growing network of robotics, or embodied AI, labs.

“There’s been some commentary in Western media recently about how the U.S. is missing the point by pushing for AGI, while China is focusing solely on applications,” said Helen Toner, interim executive director of Georgetown’s Center for Security and Emerging Technology. “This is wrong.”

“Some Chinese researchers and some parts of the Chinese government have been interested in AGI and superintelligence for a long time,” Toner said, though she noted this view was primarily held by smaller startups like DeepSeek.

Seattle mayor rejects locking up repeat criminals during tense debate: ‘Maybe they’re hungry’

Seattle Democratic Mayor Bruce Harrell said during a mayoral debate Thursday night he has “no desire” to put repeat criminal defenders in jail, and he doesn’t know how to answer the question on whether the city is “too lax” on repeat offenders.

“So, let me make something very clear. I was the one that sponsored the ‘Ban the Box’ legislation when everyone opposed it because the criminal system has had a disparate impact on Black and Brown communities, let me lead with that,” Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell said in a mayoral debate Thursday night when asked a follow-up question about repeat offenders in the city.

Harrell’s “Ban the Box” proposal in 2013 prevented employers from asking about an applicant’s criminal history on applications up front. 

Harrell then said, “When this person is committing six or seven crimes, I don’t know his or her story. Maybe they were abused as a child. Maybe they’re hungry. But my remedy is to find their life story to see how we can help. First, I have no desire to put them in jail, but I need to protect you, and that’s the calibration that we have.

Three Germans arrested in Norway over drone incident

Three Germans have been arrested in Norway for allegedly launching a drone in a prohibited zone around an airport, Bild has reported. 

The outlet cited local media as saying the three men were detained on Tuesday and released shortly afterwards. It did not identify the men or the type of UAV involved in the incident near Rossvoll Airport. 

Separately, Norwegian police confirmed that a Chinese national was deported and fined 12,000 kroner ($1,200) after allegedly flying a drone near Svolvaer Airport in the north of the country. Authorities said they are continuing to investigate multiple reports of drone activity near airports, military facilities and other critical infrastructure.

The incidents come as Western Europe has been plagued by repeated drone sightings in recent weeks, forcing temporary shutdowns at several airports. In Belgium, authorities confirmed that 15 drones were detected above the Elsenborn military base in Liege Province. Munich Airport in Germany was temporarily closed on Friday after unidentified drones were reported in its airspace. Scandinavian airports have also reported incursions.

Western media and officials have suggested that Russia is behind the drone incidents. Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson claimed it is “quite probable” Moscow is responsible, although he admitted this has not been proven. European leaders have cited the incidents as justification for boosting military spending and creating a so-called “drone wall.”

New York Imposes Law Forcing Social Media to Justify Speech Policies to State Authorities

Social media companies operating in New York are now under fresh legal obligations as the state enforces the so-called “Stop Hiding Hate Act,” a new compelled speech law that forces platforms with annual revenues exceeding $100 million to hand over detailed reports on how they handle various forms of speech, including speech that is legally protected under the First Amendment.

The legislation went into effect on October 1 and has already triggered a constitutional showdown in court.

The law, officially Senate Bill S895B, demands biannual disclosures to the state Attorney General’s office.

These reports must outline how platforms define terms such as “hate speech,” “misinformation,” “harassment,” “disinformation,” and “extremism.”

Companies are also required to explain what moderation practices they apply to those categories and to provide specifics about actions taken against users and content.

Platforms that fail to comply face penalties of up to $15,000 per violation, per day. Injunctive action can also be taken against non-compliant entities.

Attorney General Letitia James declared that the law is about transparency and oversight.

“With violence and polarization on the rise, social media companies must ensure that their platforms don’t fuel hateful rhetoric and disinformation,” she said in a public statement, reinforcing her view that private companies should be accountable to the state for how they manage user expression.

“The Stop Hiding Hate Act requires social media companies to share their content moderation policies publicly and with my office to ensure that these companies are more transparent about how they are addressing harmful content on their platforms.”

Governor Kathy Hochul voiced similar sentiments, saying the legislation “builds on our efforts to improve safety online and marks an important step to increase transparency and accountability.”

TikTok censors posts about AIPAC’s influence after ownership change

TikTok has begun censoring posts that discuss the influence of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) in the United States. This change follows a recent ownership transition to billionaires aligned with Israeli interests.

The decision to censor content related to AIPAC has raised concerns among users regarding freedom of expression on the platform. The specific nature of the posts being targeted has not been detailed, but the move has sparked discussions about the implications of ownership on social media content moderation.

This development comes amid ongoing political tensions and discussions surrounding AIPAC”s role in U.S. politics. Similar situations have been observed in other contexts, including recent developments in Madagascar, where protests have erupted over political issues, as reported in recent coverage.

No further information has been provided by TikTok regarding the criteria for censorship or the potential impact on user engagement. The situation continues to evolve as users and observers monitor the platform”s policies.

GOP Congressman Calls for End to Cruel NIH Dog Testing Following More Abuse Allegations Against Fauci’s Beagle Breeder

In the wake of mounting scandal, Republican Congressman Paul Gosar is demanding that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) halt all experiments on dogs, after new abuse allegations tied to the notorious Ridglan Farms puppy mill that supplies beagles to NIH-funded labs.

Gosar’s comment came in response to a White Coat Waste post that included a disturbing photo of a “9-year-old retired female breeder beagle from the notorious Ridglan Farms” being abused in an NIH-funded experiment at the Cleveland Clinic.

The pressure comes as Ridglan Farms’ lead veterinarian had his veterinary license unanimously suspended this week by the Wisconsin Veterinary Examining Board. Ridglan also faces over 300 alleged animal health violations, a proposed $55,000 state fine, and possible criminal referral, as Gateway Pundit previously reported.

The suspension is a significant escalation in the long‑running controversy over Ridglan, a commercial beagle breeding operation that WCW has documented supplies animals directly to cruel experiments funded with tax dollars by the NIH.

WCW’s investigation has found that dozens of Ridglan beagles have already been used in painful NIH‑supported experiments—ranging from tick infestation studies at the University of Missouri to forced infections, drug injections, and viral exposure protocols. WCW has also obtained documents linking NIH-funded dog testing labs at Northwestern University, University of Chicago, Washington University-St. Louis, University of Georgia, and others to Ridglan.

In a July 2025 letter, Reps. Gosar, Marjorie Taylor Greene and others sent to the NIH requesting the cancelation of all dog and cat testing grants awarded by Dr. Fauci and an end to future funding for dog and cat testing, he cited the ongoing NIH-funded tick bite experiment on Ridglan beagles uncovered by WCW.

Democrats Are Playing Chicken With Americans’ Livelihood Because Illegal Aliens Dominate Their Policy Priorities

As the federal government shutdown stretches into its fourth day, the impasse between Republicans and Democrats shows no immediate signs of breaking. With funding lapsed since October 1, non-essential services hang in the balance, and political finger-pointing intensifies. Democrats have been receiving an unprecedented volume of blame for the “Schumer Shutdown” as some in legacy media have uncharacteristically reported some of the truth.

Richard Stern, director of the Grover M. Hermann Center for the Federal Budget at the Heritage Foundation, points to two specific pay dates that could shift the dynamics: October 10 for essential federal workers and October 15 for military personnel.

Stern explains that these deadlines carry real weight because “at the end of the day, I think they’re going to get the blame that I think they deserve,” referring to Democrats who rejected a Republican-backed temporary funding bill.

This bill aimed to keep government operations running for seven weeks while negotiations continued, but Democrats held firm on demands to extend Affordable Care Act subsidies to illegal aliens. Elaborating on this standoff, Stern describes the Democratic approach as one where they “stomp [their] feet and make a dramatic situation out of it.”

Such tactics, he argues, prioritize controversial spending items like foreign aid for transgender surgeries and abortions, increased funding for NPR and PBS, and a massive $1.5 trillion welfare program extension that would strip away anti-fraud measures and broaden eligibility to legal aliens. This perspective aligns with broader Republican criticisms that Democrats are leveraging the shutdown to push unrelated policy goals, as echoed in statements from the White House, which has launched a “shutdown clock” to track the disruption and attribute it to Democratic intransigence.

One Democratic voice capturing this resolve comes from Rep. Shri Thanedar, D-Mich., who declared, “We got to make sure Americans have the healthcare that they need, and if that means we’ve got to shut the government down, so be it.”
