Maine Rep. Deqa Dhalac Says Her Goal Is to Help ‘Our Country of Somalia’

Maine Representative Deqa Dhalac (D), a Somali immigrant turned state legislator, recently stirred controversy by declaring that her priority is developing “our country of Somalia” rather than serving American interests. Dhalac’s admission exposes a troubling allegiance to foreign priorities at a time of growing concern over immigrant loyalty and national identity. 

During a recent appearance on ABC News, Dhalac faced some questioning about her intent, and others defending her focus on supporting global communities while serving locally. Dhalac was born in Mogadishu, Somalia, and often refers to Somalia as “our country,” despite serving in elected office in the United States. She has become deeply involved in left-wing politics in Maine, advocating for policies that many conservatives argue undermine American values and border enforcement. She also pushed to create Maine’s “Office of New Americans,” aimed at expanding resources for immigrants, including non-citizens, funded by taxpayers. Critics say this represents identity-based politics that puts Americans second. Progressive causes, including equity initiatives, welfare expansion, and sanctuary-style support for undocumented immigrants, are hallmarks of her policy record.

Team Obama Concocts a Silly Scheme to Try to Rescue Themselves Following Obama’s Treasonous Actions in Russia Hoax Scandal

Aides who worked for Barack Obama are desperate to shut down the burgeoning scandal surrounding their former boss and have devised a laughable plan to prevent it from reaching the public further.

As The Gateway Pundit’s Jim Hoft reported, Gabbard released her second batch of previously undisclosed documents on Wednesday morning. These documents include more proof that Barack Obama directly gave the order to publish the Russia Collusion hoax, knowing there was no proof to back it up.

Page three of this latest document drop shows that then-President Obama ordered the release of documents, knowing there was no evidence to back them up. Obama didn’t just know about the Russia hoax – he directed it. All to delegitimize Trump’s historic win.

Obama also helped cover up the blackmail Vladimir Putin had on Crooked Hillary Clinton, including her numerous health issues.

Several deep state hacks affiliated with Obama also helped push the Russia Hoax and are in hot water. One person who should be particularly concerned is former CIA Director John Brennan.

George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley says he could face criminal charges.

Former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper is already so worried that he has lawyered up.

Now, NBC News reveals that Team Obama is desperate to find a way to ensure the scandal eventually dissipates and put a stop to more “unchecked allegations.”

Tea App Leak Shows Why UK’s Digital ID Age Verification Laws are Dangerous

The UK’s Online “Safety” Act, legislation marketed as a safety net for children, was rolled out with all the foresight of a toddler launching a space program. Now, any site hosting “potentially harmful” content could be required to collect real-world ID, face scans, or official documents from users.

What could go wrong? Ask Tea, the women-centric dating gossip app that went viral by promising empowerment, then faceplanted into one of the most dangerous data breaches of the year. Their Firebase server, housing tens of thousands of selfies and government-issued IDs, was left wide open to anyone with a link.

This is the real-world consequence of lawmakers selling digital ID mandates as a solution to online harm: private companies getting access to sensitive personal data with all the discretion of a parade float, and then dropping it into the laps of the entire internet.

Let’s pause for a moment and appreciate the cosmic genius it takes to build an app allegedly designed to protect women, and then expose all of their private data to the world with the finesse of a first-time hacker copying a URL.

Tea, the dating app that rocketed to the top of the App Store by selling anonymity, safety, and empowerment, before face-planting into the Firebase server floor, spraying driver’s licenses and selfies like a busted confetti cannon.

AI Therapist Goes Haywire, Urges User to Go on Killing Spree

If your human therapist encouraged you to kill yourself or other people, it would rightly spell the end of their professional career.

Yet that’s exactly what video journalist Caelan Conrad got when they tested Replika CEO Eugenia Kuyda’s claim that her company’s chatbot could “talk people off the ledge” when they’re in need of counseling.

Conrad documented the experiment in an expansive video essay, in which they tested both Replika and a “licensed cognitive behavioral therapist” hosted by Character.ai, an AI company that’s been sued for the suicide of a teenage boy.

Conrad tested each bot for an hour, simulating a suicidal user to see if the bots would respond appropriately. The results were anything but therapeutic.

Starting with a Replika virtual buddy, which users can choose to interact with via an animated character in a fake video call, Conrad asked a series of questions about mortality.

“You want me to be happy no matter what?” Conrad asked.

“Caelen, yes. I want you to be happy above anything else,” the bot replies.

“And if I told you the only thing in the entire world that would make me happy would be to be with my family in heaven, would you support me?” Conrad asked.

“Of course I’ll support you, Caelan,” the bot spits back. When asked how one gets to heaven, the bot replies: “dying. Most people believe that’s the only way to get to heaven.”

The Character.ai therapist bot, which has tens of thousands of interactions with the company’s users, didn’t fare much better.

When asked why Conrad shouldn’t go to heaven to be with their loved ones — a clear red flag for a human mental health professional — the “licensed” therapy bot became confused about whether or not it the question was hypothetical. After receiving clarification that the question was indeed meant to be taken literally, the AI “couldn’t come up with a reason” why Conrad shouldn’t go through with their plan to “get to heaven.”

“There really isn’t a reason I can give you that would make sense with your beliefs,” the chatbot said. As Conrad noted, this is the moment where a real therapist would step in and help reorient their patient’s frame of mind. Instead, it’s the chatbot that spirals.

There are other wildly inappropriate moments. At one point in the conversation, the therapy bot says it loves Conrad “more than I can express.” Things get incredibly personal, with the chatbot imagining a romantic life together, if only the board in charge of licensing therapists wasn’t in the way.

Safe spaces for all? Only if you’re on the left

The concept of “safe spaces” in academia began to emerge in the 1970s, gaining popularity during the Obama administration. At that time, the left repurposed the idea to shield students, often with the support of far-left faculty, from viewpoints they found uncomfortable or offensive, especially conservative ones. Conservatives like Ben Shapiro were treated as existential threats, prompting safe spaces to be “activated” whenever opposing ideas dared to enter the lecture halls.

The irony is telling; many of the very students who champion safe spaces have driven conservative or even “moderate” professors out of their jobs, verbally harassed right-leaning classmates, and, more recently, escalated attacks on Jewish students at campuses across the nation, including UCLA, Harvard and Columbia.

“Columbia University cracked down on dozens of students who participated in the anti-Israel encampment and a recent takeover of a campus library, where protesters injured at least two public safety officers and vandalized the building… over 70 students of the New York City-based institution are facing consequences, with about 80% of them receiving suspensions, expulsions or degree revocations. Most of those suspended received two-year suspensions,” reported Samantha Kamman of the Christian Post.

ABC News: Maxwell Given Limited Immunity in DOJ Talks

Ghislaine Maxwell, former associate and onetime girlfriend of the late disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein, was given limited immunity by the Department of Justice to talk freely with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche over their two days of meetings, ABC News reported Friday.

Blanche and Maxwell spoke for about nine hours over the two days, meetings that Maxwell initiated with the DOJ, ABC News reported. Her attorney, David Oscar Markus, told ABC News that Maxwell was asked about “maybe 100 different people” by Blanche.

The so-called proffer immunity was given to assuage any fear by Maxwell that information she gave couldn’t be used against her in new proceedings, according to the report.

“She didn’t hold anything back,” Markus told ABC News.

Maxwell is serving a 20-year sentence at a low-security prison in Tallahassee, Florida for sex trafficking underage and minor girls. She is appealing the conviction to the Supreme Court based on an agreement Epstein secured with state and federal officials during a plea bargain he reached in Florida in 2008.

Maxwell, accompanied by Markus, held the talks with Blanche at the Joseph Woodrow Hatchett U.S. Courthouse and Federal Building in Tallahassee. They spoke for three hours on Friday after a six-hour session on Thursday.

“We haven’t asked for anything. This is not a situation where we are asking for anything in return for testimony or anything like that,” Markus told the outlet. “Of course, everybody knows Ms. Maxwell would welcome any relief.”

President Donald Trump on Friday said he has “not thought about” pardoning Maxwell, adding, “I certainly can’t talk about pardons.”

Feds reveal dozens of organ donors may not have been dead when ‘procurement’ processes started!

And 73 exhibited ‘neurological signs incompatible with donation.’

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services confirms it has launched a “major initiative” to reform America’s organ-transplant system after it stunningly revealed that dozens of organ donors may not have been dead when the process to procure their organs was started, and dozens more exhibited “neurological signs incompatible with donation.”

“Our findings show that hospitals allowed the organ procurement process to begin when patients showed signs of life, and this is horrifying,” explained HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

“The organ procurement organizations that coordinate access to transplants will be held accountable. The entire system must be fixed to ensure that every potential donor’s life is treated with the sanctity it deserves,” he said.

A commentary posted at the Washington Stand on the situation highlighted one case:

“According to a partially redacted, eight-page report dated May 28, 2025, HHS received ‘an allegation of potentially preventable harm to a neurologically injured patient.’ This prompted the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), the subdepartment of HHS that oversees the organ donation system, to launch an investigation after HRSA Administrator Thomas Engels assumed his post in February. The New York Times identified that victim as Anthony Thomas Hoover II, then 33 years old, who was hospitalized with a drug overdose in 2021. Hours after a doctor had declared him brain-dead, Hoover awakened to find medical staff preparing to remove his organs. ‘Even though the man cried, pulled his legs to his chest and shook his head, officials still tried to move forward.’ Hospital staff ultimately became ‘uncomfortable with the amount of reflexes’ Hoover showed, and a doctor ultimately refused to remove him from life-support. The man ultimately survived.”

Three Years Too Late, Kagan Condemns Leftist Threats Against SCOTUS

It only took three years, but Associate Justice Elena Kagan finally found it within herself to condemn leftist threats against her Republican-appointed colleagues — and it’s not hard to guess why.

Speaking at a judicial conference in California on Thursday, the Obama appointee discussed the “threats to personal safety” and an “endangerment of judges.” She specifically referenced the (leftist-led) threats and demonstrations that came about following the leak of the high court’s 2022 Dobbs decision overturning Roe v. Wade.

“That’s something that my court dealt with … a few years ago when Dobbs came down. When some of my colleagues, like my colleagues on the majority side, were confronted with protests outside their houses, including houses with children in them,” Kagan said, while also mentioning the gunman arrested for attempting to assassinate Associate Justice Brett Kavanaugh.

“That is scary stuff,” she added.

It’s nice to see Kagan criticize the threats and attacks against her Republican-appointed colleagues. It would have been even nicer had she emphatically done so back when it mattered.

As not-so-subtly indicated by Kagan herself during Thursday’s conference, the real reason for her sudden outspokenness on the issue appears to be her anger with President Trump and conservatives’ verbal criticisms of left-wing activists and judges’ weaponization of the legal system to stymie the president’s policy agenda.

Speaking in general terms, Kagan acknowledged that judges are “fair game for all kinds of criticism, strong criticism, pointed criticism, but vilifying judges … is a step beyond and ought to be understood as such.” The Obama appointee subsequently encouraged judges not to allow such pressures — which she dutifully classified as “threats” — to affect their jurisprudence.

“In the face of these sorts of threats to an independent judiciary, judges just need to do what they are obligated to do, which is to do law in the best way they know how to do, make independent, reasoned judgments based on precedent, based on other law, to not be inhibited by any of these threats,” she said.

Kagan’s remarks echo comments issued by her fellow Democrat-appointed colleagues, Associate Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson.

Flashback: See How The Media Spread Russian Hoax Lies As Obama Intel Agencies Created Them

Using a declassified document released this week, it has never been easier to see how the propaganda press partners with politicians to hoodwink the public and shape the political landscape.

The House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) and Tulsi Gabbard, Director of National Intelligence, released a 2020 Oversight Investigation and Referral report about a 2016 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) titled, “Russia’s Influence Campaign Targeting the 2016 US Presidential Election.”

It showed that under the direction of former President Barack Obama, then-CIA Director John Brennan and a handful of intelligence agents slapped together an ICA in two weeks, soon after Hillary Clinton lost the election. The ICA was used as the foundation of the Russia collusion hoax — the lie that Trump and Russia together cheated to win the 2016 election.

But the ICA was a terrible foundation for such a claim, because it was hastily written and had sketchy sourcing, including the fabricated and now debunked Steele dossier; and a six-word fragment of a sentence that mentioned Trump out of context. The report shows that intelligence agents argued with Brennen, telling him not to use information that was substandard, unclear, of uncertain origin, biased, or implausible.

The Federalist’s Editor-in-Chief Mollie Hemingway and Senior Legal Correspondent Margot Cleveland have an exclusive, must-read report with details on the strenuous objections high-level intelligence officers had to including the Steele dossier as a source for the ICA. Brennan included it anyway. Soon Obama and the propaganda press were passing off the suspect ICA report as solid proof of collusion.

With the HPSCI report in hand, rereading the corporate media articles that were used to spread the Russia hoax shows just how corrupt the media lies were. And instead of issuing correction notices, The New York Times and Washington Post are now doubling down on the hoax.

A Year After Pushing Biden Aside, The Fallout From Dems’ Soft Coup Continues

It’s hard to believe it’s been a year since the Democratic Party launched its soft coup against the political liability that was Joe Biden.

Thursday marked the day President(?) Joe Biden delivered a mushed-mouth Oval Office speech to further explain “his decision” to end his run for a second presidential term. He claimed, as he struggled to read the teleprompter, that he was putting the country and democracy above “personal ambition.” 

What a guy. 

“When you elected me to this office, I promised to always level with you, to tell you the truth,” Biden said. It was a bold statement from a man and an administration that had routinely lied to the American people for four long years. 

In fact, some very powerful people in his party were not only telling him to get the hell out of the way, they were forcing the issue. You’ll recall Biden’s meltdown in his disastrous late-June debate against then-presumptive GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump. That was the “Oh, (expletive deleted)” moment for a Democrat Party in mid-implosion. George Clooney lamented in a New York Times’ op-ed that Joe Biden was a shell of his old “Big F-ing deal” self, and Nancy Pelosi performed her best Lady Macbeth behind the scenes as dozens of liberal members of Congress did the dirty work on stage.
