Investigation into Democrat Ilhan Omar’s Husband May Reach to Somalia, Kenya, and the United Arab Emirates

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) wants officials to look abroad regarding Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D-MN) husband, Tim Mynett, and his failed business ventures.

Comer wants the House Ethics Committee investigation to look at countries such as Somalia, Kenya, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE), the New York Post reported Saturday.

The news comes after Omar’s net worth increased from $51,000 to $30 million in one year with the surge of wealth linked to two of Mynett’s businesses. However, Omar has said people were falsely claiming she was worth millions and pointed the finger at conservatives who she said were unfairly targeting her, per Breitbart News.

According to the Post, “Mynett’s investment firm Rose Lake Capital wanted to build solar panels in Africa and his main business partner received a $10,699 air ticket to Dubai after talks about a deal there.”

The outlet continued:

Comer’s committee initially spearheaded the probe and in a Feb. 5 letter to Mynett, demanded he turn over “all documents and communications” by anyone affiliated with either Rose Lake Capital LLC or his failed California winery eStCru LLC related to travel “to the United Arab Emirates, Somalia or Kenya, or travel undertaken to solicit business connected to those countries. This includes the dates of travel, the individuals who traveled, and the stated purpose of each trip.”

The deadline for Mynett to respond is Thursday.

Woman Sparks Major Uproar After Bragging About Calling Child Protective Services On High School Students Who Attended a TPUSA Gathering

A woman has admitted to a disgusting act of outright and wicked censorship regarding conservative high school students, sparking a massive national outrage.

A nosy leftist community leader in Calvert County, Maryland, named Nancy Krause spoke at the Calvert County Board of Education meeting on February 12, 2026 where she made a startling admission: she had notified Child Protective Services due to her supposed safety concerns over a December 2025 Turning Point USA gathering.

Krause also claimed she was concerned about potential conflicts of interest among board members who reportedly spoke at the event.

NANCY: In December of 2025, Turning Point USA hosted an event marketed to high school students with food and beverages advertised as an incentive for attendance.

While community building opportunities for students are important, this event raises serious concerns related to student safety, parental rights and governance oversight. Adults and legal guardians were not permitted to attend the event.

Excluding parents and guardians from a student-focused event creates a lack of transparency and undermines established best practices for youth safety.

I’m also concerned about a potential conflict of interest involving board of education members who served as guests and spoke at this event.

Students are widely recognized as a vulnerable population, they are in critical developmental stages, and especially susceptible to influence.

All Board of Education members in this room are mandated reporters under state law, as I am. Based on the circumstances surrounding this event, a report was made to Child Protective Services.

A student who spoke before Krause said his group placed restrictions on the event after receiving “hate” online.

This included barring access for adults they did not know who were not volunteers or parents of attendees.

He also revealed that all students who attended had parental permission.

As of this writing, no action has been taken against Krause for her censorious move.

Krause’s action sparked an uproar among conservatives on social media.

EXPOSED: EU’s Desperate Push to Ram Ukraine Into the Bloc by 2027 — Ignoring Treaties, Crushing Sovereignty, and Setting Up for Epic Failure Just Like the Russian Assets Fiasco!

In a brazen display of bureaucratic overreach that’s straight out of a globalist nightmare, the European Union’s elite are hell-bent on forcing Ukraine’s accession by 2027, trampling on treaties, national sovereignty, and common sense.

It’s the same rigged game we saw with the attempted confiscation of Russian assets – all hype, no substance, and destined to crash and burn. Spoiler: It ain’t happening, folks.

Let’s break it down. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is demanding a fixed 2027 deadline for EU membership as part of any peace deal with Russia, claiming it’ll lock Ukraine away from Moscow’s grip.

He’s pushing hard, saying Ukraine will be “technically ready” by then and warning that without it, Russia will sabotage the process.

Rather tellingly, when Zelensky addresses his European partners who are generously funding him, he never asks; he demands. As if the world owed him something. He did the same with his previous financial backers: the Americans.

Sounds bold, right? But reality check: The EU’s own treaties and rules scream “impossible.” The Copenhagen criteria – those ironclad requirements on rule of law, human rights, and economic stability – take years, if not decades, to meet.

No shortcuts, no exceptions. Yet here we are, with Brussels hatching wild schemes like “partial membership” or “reverse enlargement” to jam Ukraine in early, reforms be damned.

The Balts are psychologically at war

Germany, the EU’s economic powerhouse, isn’t buying it. Chancellor Friedrich Merz slammed the door shut, declaring Ukraine’s 2027 entry “out of the question” and “not possible.” He insisted on full compliance with the criteria, a process that drags on even in peacetime. No fast-track for Kyiv, period.

Belgium’s Prime Minister Bart De Wever? He’s even more blunt. De Wever diagnosed the Baltic states as “psychologically at war with Russia,” willing to drag the entire continent into their paranoia.

He’s already proven his spine by torpedoing EU plans to loot frozen Russian assets for Ukraine aid, forcing a humiliating backdown.

Luxembourg Foreign Minister Xavier Bettel straight-up told Zelensky to stop issuing ultimatums, reminding him that EU rules aren’t optional. “Don’t give ultimatums – it’s not in your interest,” Bettel said, echoing what sane leaders across Europe are thinking.

Despite these massive red flags, the EU Commission under Ursula von der Leyen is pulling every dirty trick.

They’re floating “unprecedented” plans for gradual integration, like giving Ukraine early access to membership perks without full reforms.

The zealots in the Baltic states – Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania – are leading the charge, obsessed with poking the Russian bear at any cost.

As De Wever nailed it, they’re ready to “do anything, absolutely anything” to impose their worldview on Europe. Outlets like Politico, partially bankrolled by EU cash, are spinning this as a done deal.

Their “5 steps to get Ukraine into the EU in 2027” reads like propaganda, claiming the only real hurdle is, of course, Hungary – that “fascist” holdout, Viktor Orbán.

Ah, Hungary – the lone wolf standing against the globalist tide. Orbán blasted the 2027 plan as an “open declaration of war” against his country, vowing no Hungarian parliament will approve it “in the next 100 years.”

This whole circus mirrors the Russian assets debacle to a T. Remember how the EU hyped confiscating $300 billion in frozen Russian funds to rebuild Ukraine? They pushed hard, ignoring legal risks and Russian retaliation threats.

But Belgium balked, fearing lawsuits and economic blowback, forcing a watered-down “indefinite freeze” instead of outright seizure. Billions in “reparation loans” got floated, but the grand plan fizzled amid vetoes and reality checks.

Same script here: Overpromising, underdelivering, and trampling treaties in the name of “rule of law.” Hypocrisy much? Why the madness?

Simple – the Baltic bloc’s worldvision is infecting Brussels, desperate to yank Europe into endless conflict. Russia, Russia, Russia. But the world ain’t buying it anymore.

This fantasy will flop harder than the assets grab. The EU’s bureaucratic Quasimodo is exposed – bloated, corrupt, and out of touch.

How Free Markets Should Work

The call for government intervention into market pricing is ancient. This call was resisted politically in the West until the decade before World War I began. After that war ended in 1918, the West saw the triumph of the isms: Communism, Fascism, National Socialism, Fabianism, and the smaller isms that arose in the wake of the larger isms.

Calls for government intervention into the price system have multiplied. Hazlitt’s book dealt with lots of these calls. But these calls have played second fiddle in the West to three government-bankrupting ideas: government pensions, government health care for the aged, and military empire. Europe is further along the path to bankruptcy because of the first two programs, along with government health care for the whole population. The United States has specialized in war since 1946.

Because of the price-disrupting effects of central banking and fractional reserve banking—both of which are government-licensed monopolies—the state’s interventions in these closely related sectors of the economy have subsidized the allocation of capital away from what consumers would have chosen, had politically favored special-interest groups not been furnished with fiat money. The economy of the world is now addicted to monetary inflation. Among modern economists, Austrian School economic analysis alone focuses on these disrupting effects. This outlook is not known by the public, and it is rejected by academic economists.

Teachers Union and School Districts SUE Trump Administration Over ICE

Two Minnesota school districts and the state’s largest teachers union have filed a federal lawsuit against the Trump administration, challenging a new immigration enforcement policy that allows federal agents to operate at or near schools and bus stops. 

The complaint, filed February 4 in the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota, names the Department of Homeland Security, Secretary Kristi Noem, and subagencies including U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement as defendants.

The plaintiffs—Fridley Public Schools, Duluth Public Schools, and Education Minnesota—argue that the administration’s decision to rescind a decades-old “sensitive locations” policy has disrupted school operations across the Twin Cities region. 

They contend that enforcement activity near school grounds has reduced attendance, forced districts to expand remote learning, and diverted administrative resources.

The lawsuit seeks to reinstate restrictions that previously limited immigration enforcement at schools absent exigent circumstances or supervisory approval.

The policy change at the center of the dispute occurred in January 2025, when DHS formally revoked prior guidance that discouraged immigration arrests at schools, churches, and similar locations.

The updated directive replaced categorical restrictions with officer discretion, stating that federal agents would rely on “common sense” rather than bright-line prohibitions. 

DHS defended the move as necessary to prevent criminals from exploiting geographic safe havens to avoid apprehension.

The litigation follows “Operation Metro Surge,” a high-profile federal enforcement initiative in the Minneapolis–St. Paul metropolitan area.

As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, the operation deployed thousands of agents to address what officials described as a backlog of criminal and fraud-related investigations. 

Just days after the lawsuit, thousands of high school students across the country—including students in several Minnesota districts involved in the litigation—staged walkouts to protest ICE and call for the agency’s abolition.

Videos circulated rapidly on social media, showing coordinated demonstrations framed as acts of civic resistance. 

In some districts, students who had walked out to protest immigration enforcement are now enrolled in systems suing the very agency responsible for carrying it out.

Immigration law is written by Congress and enforced by the executive branch. The prior “sensitive locations” guidance was an internal policy, not a statute.

Its rescission does not eliminate constitutional protections, judicial warrants, or due process. Instead, it restores operational flexibility to agents tasked with enforcing federal law.

Democrats maintain that enforcement presence near schools generates fear that undermines educational stability. District officials point to funding formulas tied to attendance and argue that declines in enrollment threaten budgets.

The complaint alleges that DHS failed to provide sufficient justification for abandoning the prior policy and violated administrative rulemaking procedures under the Administrative Procedure Act.

Rand Paul Introduces Bill to Strip Vaccine Manufacturers of Nationwide Liability Immunity

On Wednesday, U.S. Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) introduced federal legislation that would dismantle the long-standing liability protections shielding vaccine manufacturers from civil lawsuits in the United States.

CDC data confirm millions of injury reports submitted following vaccination, though an HHS–Harvard Pilgrim analysis concluded the agency’s vaccine tracking system captures fewer than 1% of adverse events.

The bill, S.3853, formally titled “A bill to amend the Public Health Service Act to end the liability shield for vaccine manufacturers, and for other purposes,” was introduced on February 11, 2026, and referred to the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP).

The measure is cosponsored by Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT).

If enacted, the legislation would amend federal law to remove legal protections that have insulated vaccine manufacturers from product-liability lawsuits since 1986.

The Legal Structure Targeted

The liability shield stems from the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986, which created the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (NVICP).

Under that framework, individuals claiming vaccine-related injury must generally pursue claims through a federal compensation system rather than through traditional civil litigation.

Manufacturers are broadly protected from design-defect claims and most tort actions in state courts.

The legal architecture was justified at the time as necessary to prevent vaccine market collapse amid rising lawsuits.

S.3853 would directly amend the Public Health Service Act to eliminate those protections.

Although the full statutory text has not yet been published, the bill’s title makes clear that its purpose is not procedural reform but termination of the federal liability shield itself.

Meta Considers Timed Face Recognition Launch to Exploit Distracted Society

Meta is weighing whether to add face recognition to its camera-equipped smart glasses, and The New York Times obtained an internal company document that reveals more than just the plan itself.

It reveals how Meta thinks about when to launch it: “during a dynamic political environment where many civil society groups that we would expect to attack us would have their resources focused on other concerns.”

Read that plainly: Meta wants to release a mass biometric surveillance product while the people most likely to fight it are too distracted to respond.

The technology would scan the face of every person who enters the glasses’ field of view, building a faceprint to match against a database. Every passerby. Every stranger on the subway. Every person who happens to walk through the frame of someone else’s device. None of them consented. Most of them won’t even know they were captured.

Faceprints are among the most sensitive data a company can collect. Unlike a password, a face cannot be changed after a breach. Once collected, this data enables mass surveillance, fuels discrimination, and creates a permanent identification trail attached to a person’s physical movement through the world.

Putting that capability into wearable glasses carried by ordinary people in ordinary places moves it off servers and into every room, street, and gathering that people enter.

Meta ran this experiment before and lost.

The company shut down (only kind of) its photo face-scanning tool in November 2021, simultaneously announcing it would delete (if you believe them) over a billion stored face templates. That retreat came after years of mounting legal exposure that produced a very expensive record.

In July 2019, Facebook settled a Federal Trade Commission investigation for $5 billion. The allegations included that the company’s face recognition settings were confusing and deceptive, and the settlement required the company to obtain consent before running face recognition on users going forward.

Less than two years later, Meta agreed to pay $650 million to settle a class action brought by Illinois residents under that state’s biometric privacy law. Then, in July 2024, it settled with Texas for $1.4 billion over the same defunct system. Nearly $7 billion across three settlements, all tied to face recognition practices the company ultimately abandoned.

Texas public schools under investigation for supporting student walkouts, ICE protests

Several Texas public schools are under state investigation for supporting thousands of student walkouts to protest federal immigration enforcement.

Many have either been taken over by the state or have planned school closures. Gov. Greg Abbott has called for schools that facilitate protests to be stripped of state funding.

Initial protests and walkouts occurred on Jan. 30 as part of a coordinated national movement disrupting classroom teaching with some students getting injured and lost. More than 10 days later, students are still protesting.

On Tuesday, dozens of students from the Houston Academy for International Studies walked out of school, chanting, “ICE off our streets.” It’s part of Houston ISD, which the state took over two years ago for failing grades, The Center Square reported. Last week, in Fort Bend ISD, a Kuwaiti student joined protests chanting, “There’s no human illegal on stolen land,” a common chant among Houston area protesters, The Houston Chronicle reported.

Dallas ISD students also walked out of class on Tuesday, chanting, “No Trump, no ICE, no fascists on our streets. “Dallas Police and Dallas ISD officers stood by,” KERA News reported.

Student protests continue after the Texas Education Agency issued guidance stating, “schools risk losing daily attendance funding if they allow or encourage students to walk out of class. Teachers that facilitate walk outs will be subject to investigation and sanction including licensure revocation. School systems that facilitate walkouts will be subject to investigation and sanction, including either the appointment of a monitor, conservator or board of managers.”

Yale University SUSPENDS Prof. David Gelernter After Trump DOJ Exposes His Ties to Jeffrey Epstein

Yale University has removed longtime computer science professor David Gelernter from teaching duties after newly released Department of Justice documents tied him to disgraced financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, years after Epstein had already pleaded guilty to soliciting prostitution from a minor.

The bombshell revelations emerged from the massive January 2026 DOJ document dump made possible under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, signed into law by President Donald Trump in November 2025, which forced the federal government to release millions of pages of Epstein-related communications.

Among the millions of pages published were years of email correspondence between Gelernter and Jeffrey Epstein, spanning 2009 to 2015.

In one message from October 2011, years after Epstein’s conviction in Florida for soliciting a minor, the professor recommended a Yale undergraduate for a position to Epstein, describing her unambiguously in terms of looks as “a v small good-looking blonde.”

Gelernter defended the note to Yale administration as keeping “the potential boss’s habits in mind,” but university officials found the explanation unacceptable and removed him from teaching duties pending review.

In a defiantly unapologetic email to Yale Dean Jeffrey Brock, which Gelernter subsequently leaked to the Yale Daily News, he defended the description.

$1.2 Billion Suspicious Epstein Transactions? Wyden Demands Investigation After JP Morgan Failed To Report For Years

Now that we’re making progress on Epstein – after President Trump and Mike Johnson were forced to cave under overwhelming pressure for DOJ disclosure – a logical next step is to look into who was funding the notorious sex-trafficker. 

On Thursday morning, Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR) called for an investigation into whether JPMorgan Chase deliberately concealed suspicious transactions by Epstein. 

You really just need to look at Exhibit A in Wyden’s memo (dated Wednesday) based on unsealed court records: the number of transactions flagged as suspicious between 2002 – 2016, vs. a flurry of almost $1.3 billion in suspicious transactions that the bank scrambled to file right after Epstein died in jail awaiting trial. 

Wyden writes: 

The unsealed court records include copies of SARs that JPMC filed on Epstein’s accounts between 2002 and 2019. Between 2002 and 2016, JPMC filed 7 SARs flagging only $4.3 million in suspicious transactions from Epstein’s accounts.¹ Only after Epstein was arrested on federal sex trafficking charges did JPMC report the full extent of Epstein’s suspicious financial activity. In August and September of 2019, JPMC filed two SARs flagging more than 5,000 suspicious wire transfers moving approximately $1.3 billion in and out of Epstein’s accounts.² This is the strongest evidence yet that JPMC should face an investigation for failure to appropriately monitor and report Epstein’s financial activity.

According to internal bank emails, JPMorgan may have held off on filing the SARs (suspicious activity reports) because it wanted “to continue working with Epstein,” who was a great source of referrals despite firing him as a client in 2013, the report found.

The bank said in late October that “it was flagging about 4,700 transactions, totaling more than $1 billion, because they were potentially related to reports of human trafficking involving Mr. Epstein. It also mentioned Mr. Epstein’s wire transfers to Russian banks and sensitivities around “his relationships with two U.S. presidents.” Mr. Epstein at times was close with President Trump and former President Bill Clinton,” according to the NYT.

Wyden said in a statement that it was “clear that JPMorgan Chase ought to face criminal investigation for the way it enabled Epstein’s horrific crimes,” and that both Congress and the DOJ should investigate the bank – which has repeatedly issued statements of regret for working with Epstein, and claims it did all it could with the information it had at the time.

“The second the government finally made public the sex trafficking details in 2019 — information they clearly had for years — we identified for law enforcement a range of Epstein’s past transactions intended to assist with the investigation,” said bank spokeswoman Patricia Wexler on Thursday. 

Will Wyden actually follow the money?
