OBAMA JUDGE PROTECTS PORTLAND’S BIASED POLICING: Rules Trump DOJ Acted in “Bad Faith” and with “Unclean Hands” for Demanding Records on Anti-Conservative Discrimination at ICE Protests

An Obama-appointed federal judge has handed Portland’s far-left political machine a major legal victory, denying the Trump Justice Department’s attempt to obtain police body-camera footage and internal records tied to allegations of anti-conservative viewpoint discrimination.

U.S. District Judge Michael H. Simon rejected the Justice Department’s motion to compel Portland officials to turn over evidence connected to protests outside the city’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility.

Simon accused the DOJ of acting in “bad faith and with unclean hands” and claimed the department’s request appeared intended to intimidate the Portland Police Bureau.

“The Court finds by clear and convincing evidence that the United States has brought this motion in bad faith and with unclean hands,” Simon wrote in his July 24 opinion. He added that the purported reasons for the nearly 30 document requests were “pretext.”

The extraordinary ruling effectively shields Portland officials from having to comply with the DOJ’s 29 demands for body-camera footage, police reports, complaints, internal communications, and other records—at least through this motion under Portland’s longstanding police-reform settlement.

The Gateway Pundit previously reported that Dhillon sent a scathing letter to Portland City Attorney Robert Taylor and Police Chief Bob Day following the controversial arrest of conservative journalist Nick Sortor.

Sortor was arrested outside Portland’s ICE facility in October 2025 after he said Antifa terrorists shoved him into a flower bed, damaged his camera, and threw punches at him.

YOU’RE FIRED! Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation Boots Leftist Staff Attorney After Profane Anti-ICE Meltdown — Vowed to Make Agents’ Lives “F**king Miserable”

The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI) has fired a staff attorney after she posted a profanity-laced anti-ICE tirade.

Shannon Desherow, the leftist Assistant General Counsel at the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation, has been FIRED after posting an expletive-filled TikTok tirade in which she refused to cooperate with ICE, claimed the agency has “no authority and no jurisdiction over U.S. citizens,” and urged Americans to “make their lives f—ing miserable.”

OSBI confirmed the termination to Fox News after completing an internal investigation.

“Once we were made aware of her social media post, we opened an internal investigation,” an OSBI spokesperson said.

“Upon completion of the internal investigation, she was terminated. Since this is a personnel matter, we are unable to further comment at this time.”

Desherow’s unhinged video, which first exploded after Libs of TikTok amplified it in early July, captured the radical attorney ranting from what appeared to be her car:

“Conservatives really think they’re doing something when they say, ‘Just comply’ when it comes to ICE and United States citizens… why the f— would I comply with someone who has no jurisdiction over me… ICE has no authority and no jurisdiction over U.S. citizens. So why the f— would I comply with an order given to me at gunpoint by somebody who has no f—ing authority to make that order? I’m not going to. That’s the f—ing thing.”

Crazy Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson Now Pushing for Reparations Over ICE Raids 

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson must be suffering from low approval ratings because he is pushing for reparations again. This time, it’s not over slavery but about people from parts of the city that were subjected to ICE raids.

Of course, there is absolutely no money for this. The city of Chicago is broke, but Johnson has no intention of ever actually delivering on this anyway.

Johnson is simply trying to curry favor with an electorate which can’t stand him.

Townhall reports:

The city of Chicago is billions of dollars in debt, including $36 billion in pension debt. The Chicago Public School district also has a budget deficit of more than $700 million. Despite these very dire fiscal parameters, Mayor Brandon Johnson wants to spend more taxpayer money to give reparations to areas where ICE conducted immigration enforcement raids.

“I believe the most relevant ballot referendum question around receiving reparations for communities that experienced that hardship, and whether that was on the west side of Chicago or the black man being placed in an illegal chokehold or long guns being stuck into the faces of women and children, zip-tied and thrown into vehicles. Kidnapped, shot at. I mean, police officers, tear gas, right?” Johnson said. “So the updated policy in the spirit of my executive order, there’s greater alignment to create a pathway to accountability.”

ICE Arrests Illegal Previously Deported FIVE TIMES After Explicit Texts Sent to ICE Agent He Thought Was a 14-Year-Old Girl

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) announced the arrest of an illegal caught up in a sting operation.

Federico Pascual-Jimenez, from Mexico, thought he was sending sexually explicit text messages to a 14-year-old girl.

It was, in fact, an ICE agent.

In his texts, Pascual-Jimenez said he thought “age doesn’t matter.”

ICE announced on X, “.@ICEgov has ARRESTED a criminal illegal PEDOPHILE.”

“Federico Pascual-Jimenez, from Mexico, believed he was sending text messages to a 14-year-old girl who was actually an ICE agent. Pascual-Jimenez sent sexually explicit texts and said he thought ‘age doesn’t matter.’”

“This sicko’s criminal history includes a conviction for DUI, and he has been deported 5 TIMES in the past.”

“ICE is working with officials in South Dakota to ensure he is NEVER released into our streets again.”

Propaganda Press Hides Anti-ICE Motive Behind Latest Act Of Left-Wing Violence

n the latest example of anti-ICE violent extremism, a 43-year-old leftist rioter allegedly set a fire outside a federal building in Manhattan that houses offices for Immigration and Customs Enforcement and federal immigration courts. The suspect reportedly also set off fireworks in the Monday attack and had multiple pellet guns, a machete, three knives, and two axes. But you wouldn’t necessarily know that this violent attack was motivated by anti-ICE sentiment if you happened to skim some of the headlines from the propaganda press.

Andrew Arrabaca is a former U.S. Army Patriot missile systems mechanic, and according to Fox 5, he came to the federal building “armed with six incendiary devices, commercial-grade fireworks, a bucket of suspected gasoline, two axes, a hammer, a machete, three knives and airsoft pellet guns/rifles.” Video captured an individual alleged to be Arrabac pouring liquid outside the entrance to the building Monday morning before setting off fireworks to ignite flames in an attack authorities say was “driven by opposition to federal immigration enforcement.”

“He came armed with bad intentions, looking to injure people and harm people,” Assistant Director in Charge of the FBI’s New York Field Office James Barnacle said, according to Fox 5. “He is an anti-American, anti-government extremist. We know that from what he said post-arrest, and we know that from the actions he tried to take.”

This is all crucial context to the attack, yet the propaganda press purposely obfuscated these details.

Pix 11’s Mira Wassef and James Ford headlined their piece: “Armed man accused of setting off fireworks outside 26 Federal Plaza in NYC: FBI.” The “reporters” did acknowledge the anti-ICE motive in the lede, writing, “An armed man with an anti-ICE agenda was arrested for allegedly setting off fireworks near a federal immigration building in Lower Manhattan Monday morning, authorities said.”

But if Pix 11 knew enough to identify the suspect’s anti-ICE agenda in the first sentence of its story, there was no justification for omitting it from the headline (especially when the motive is central to understanding the attack) — unless of course the outlet wanted to downplay anti-ICE violence because it would hurt the left’s crusade to end immigration enforcement.

Democrats Nominate Anti-ICE Candidate Accused of Mortgage Fraud and Throwing a Bottle at a Woman for Maine Senate Race

Democrats in Maine have selected former state Senate President Troy Jackson as their nominee for the Senate seat currently held by Republican Susan Collins.

Jackson supports abolishing ICE, Medicare for All, and expanding the Supreme Court.

The new candidate will replace Graham Platner, who withdrew from the race amid sexual misconduct allegations.

Jackson secured overwhelming support in county delegate elections over the weekend, winning majorities in nearly every county.

This gives him a commanding lead heading into the Democratic nominating convention scheduled for July 25.

Several rivals, including Secretary of State Shenna Bellows and former state CDC director Nirav Shah, have already dropped out and endorsed Jackson.

Jackson, a logger from Allagash, previously served as Senate President from 2018 to 2024.

He ran unsuccessfully for governor and has long been aligned with progressive causes, including labor unions.

An ethics complaint was filed against him in 2023 regarding a 2019 home purchase in Augusta using an FHA loan.

Jackson allegedly signed documents stating the Augusta property would be his primary residence but continued to claim Allagash as his residence for legislative and other purposes.

The politician claimed he “never really read” the mortgage documents and relied on his broker.

The Maine Ethics Commission reviewed complaints but did not pursue further action.

Additionally, the group Progressive Victory has warned that Jackson once threw a bottle at a female colleague, describing the incident as an “open secret” in Maine politics.

This NBC News Headline About the Anti-ICE Bombing of a Federal Building in NYC Must be Seen to be Believed

If you spend any time on social media, you will see people sometimes say that you don’t hate the media enough. This story is an example of why people say that.

As the Gateway Pundit reported earlier today, an individual deployed an explosive device outside 26 Federal Plaza in New York City. The person was caught and it was immediately apparent that this individual is virulently anti-ICE.

Here’s how NBC News framed the story. This is a headline for the ages:

Fireworks.

This is why no one likes the media. This is why no one trusts the media.

CBS News did something similar. Take a look:

Everyone knows why they do this. It’s to protect leftists.

ICE agents resume nationwide traffic stops, now required to wear body cameras

United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is now requiring its officers to wear at least one body camera during vehicle stops, according to White House Border Czar Tom Homan.

The requirement follows the White House’s confirmation on Thursday that ICE vehicle stops will continue after ICE temporarily suspended their most non-urgent vehicle stops, which President Donald Trump overruled the next day.

Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed that Trump and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Markwayne Mullin are fully aligned on using traffic stops as a key tool for ICE deportation operations.

“They exonerate more law enforcement than they convict, and I want officers to wear body cameras because I want the American people to see what the ⁠officers saw when they took that action,” Homan said on a Sunday episode of Fox & Friends.

“Vehicle stops are a necessary tool that ICE agents need in order to continue their deportation campaign of the worst of the worst illegal alien criminals from our country,” Leavitt said. “With respect to body cameras, I know there’s been some questions about that in recent days. Over half of all ICE field offices now do have body cameras.”

Leavitt attributed delays in equipping ICE agents with body cameras to the earlier Democrat-led DHS funding shutdown.

Anti-ICE walkout exposes how school district ‘failed’ parents, risked student safety: ‘Broken my trust’

Internal emails, messages and memos from Arizona’s Flagstaff Unified School District (FUSD) reveal that staff allegedly breached security protocol and violated several school policies by facilitating a student walkout to protest U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) earlier this year, according to America First Legal.

Hundreds of Flagstaff high school and middle school students walked out of class to protest ICE on Jan. 28. The protest came amid national controversy over the deaths of anti-ICE activists Renee Good and Alex Pretti in Minnesota. Immediately after the walkout, many parents, citing safety concerns, expressed outrage that they were not notified that their children had been allowed to leave school premises without their consent. One parent who said they had children under the age of 12 said the “district failed us as parents.”

Documents obtained by America First Legal, a conservative watchdog group, reveal that FUSD officials knew about the walkout days in advance and also coordinated with students. The documents, which were reviewed by Fox News Digital, were obtained by America First Legal through a lawsuit forcing FUSD to comply with its public records request for records related to the walkout.

Screenshots from a district staff text group show faculty coordinating during the walkout. One staff member texted, “We have 75 plus students staged outside of fhs [Flagstaff High School] getting ready to walk.” In the same message, the staff member wrote, “Looks like we have some members of the public joining.”

Kamala Harris’s Ridiculous Post on ICE Shootings Blows Up in Her Face When Americans Hit Her with This Devastating Reminder

Kamala Harris emerged from hiding on Tuesday to smear ICE agents following the recent shooting, only for her move to backfire after social media users issued her a very damning reminder.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, a driver in Biddeford, Maine, reportedly attempted to run over ICE agents on Monday during a targeted enforcement operation, forcing the agents to fire their weapons in self-defense. The suspect was killed.

A family friend told Maine’s Total Coverage on Tuesday that the man killed was Joan Sebastian Guerrero. He is a 26-year-old migrant originally from Colombia who leaves behind a wife, a 3-year-old child, and a sister.

This came after another migrant, Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, was fatally shot in Texas after ramming an ICE vehicle, ignoring commands, and trying to run over an agent last week.

Harris later added her brain-dead take on the matter. She repeated the sob stories circulated by her fellow Democrat cronies and leftist media outlets about the Guerrero merely being an ‘innocent’ father who was ‘murdered’ by ICE agents while his little daughter watched in her pajamas.

“Joan Sebastian Guerrero should still be alive,” Harris wrote on X. “This is the second time in a week that ICE agents have killed someone who — by their own admission — was not the subject of their operation.”
