La Linea: The Mexican Cartel Controlling the El Paso-Juarez Metropolitan Area

A recent cartel operation sent drones from Mexico into the United States, triggering a national security alert that temporarily shut down the airspace around El Paso, Texas, and Santa Teresa, New Mexico.

While the Department of War disabled the drones, Breitbart Texas reported, it remains unclear how large the drones were or if the cartel aircraft were moving drugs, being used for surveillance, or carrying improvised explosive devices, a tactic that has become prevalent in Mexico.

El Paso is directly north of Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua, a city with various criminal organizations present, which remains largely under the control of La Línea, a former faction of the Juárez Cartel that has since become the dominant criminal organization on the Mexican side of the border.

Jasmine Crockett Shows Just How Low Democrats Are Willing to Go to Attack Trump

Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett (TX-30) slammed President Donald Trump and Republican lawmakers over the handling of the Epstein Files. But, as always, there’s a problem.

Crockett posted a video on Monday in which she addressed reporters about the matter. She referred to recent reports suggesting that Epstein’s accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell, would refuse to give answers to Congress about Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operation unless she received clemency. 

“Basically, Ghislaine was like, I’m not going to participate, but we’re not going to stop,” Crockett said. “There were those that thought we would stop when we were able to get the discharge petition done. There were those that thought we were going to stop when it didn’t seem like we had the votes once we finally got that done.”

The lawmaker said the Trump administration violated a law passed in December compelling the White House to release all of the files pertaining to Epstein and his possible collaborators. It released the last tranche of the files last week.

“Now that they have violated the law because this is actually in law, we are not stopping. So I want people to understand that House US Democrats, we are going to be on their as**s. That’s just the reality,” she said.

The reporter asked Crockett what her message would be to President Trump. “Same thing,” she answered. “We’re going to be on his a**. I mean, it is so… I don’t really know where we are in this country. Why are we even having this conversation? The United States has fallen apart right now, partially because he’s going out and randomly allowing for the killings of people in the middle of the street.”

Juvenile detention center supervision officer arrested on child sexual assault charges, LCSO says

A juvenile supervision officer at a juvenile detention center has been arrested and charged with sexual assault of a child, according to the Llano County Sheriff’s Office.

Deputies with LCSO’s Criminal Investigations Division obtained multiple arrest warrants for Justice Malachi Johnson on Jan. 28. He’s also charged with indecency with a child by sexual contact. Both charges are second degree felonies.

According to a press release, LCSO discovered Johnson’s employment at the Hays County Juvenile Detention Center during their investigation. The department coordinated with the Hays County Sheriff’s Office to arrest Johnson. He was booked in the Hays County Jail and released several days later, online jail records show.

Further details were not immediately available, and it’s unclear whether the alleged assault happened in Llano County.

“The protection of our children is paramount, and the Llano County Sheriff’s Office remains committed to thoroughly investigating allegations of crimes against children and holding offenders accountable,” the sheriff’s office said in a statement.

Democratic firebrand Jasmine Crockett embarrassingly deletes multiple errors on her campaign website

Texas Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett was caught with multiple errors on her campaign site before her team scrambled to correct them. 

The 44-year-old Democratic firebrand, who launched her Senate campaign two months ago, shared her stance on critical social issues in the state – but the content didn’t appear to be proofread before it was published. 

On the site, under the slogan ‘Crockett Texas Tough’, a bulleted list displayed the liberal’s ‘priorities’. 

In the initial mention of insurance companies helping citizens with mental health issues, Crockett’s team seemingly forgot to delete ‘write out your bullet point here’,  the placeholder statement that appears when building a website. 

Before edits were made, senior CNN reporter Edward-Isaac Dovere spotted the error. 

‘Requiring all major insurance providers to include full mental healthcare coverage, including prescription medications and therapiesWrite out your bullet points here. Anything from a sentence to a paragraph works,’ the line originally read. 

The bullet point has since been shortened to: ‘Requiring all major insurance providers to include full mental healthcare coverage, including prescription medications and therapies.’ 

Online users also uncovered that her campaign added a bullet point praising her work on gun control in the Social Security section of her website. That error has since been amended.

LAUGHABLE: Jasmine Crockett Tells MSNOW That Republicans Will ‘Absolutely’ Vote for Her in a General Election

Far left Rep. Jasmine Crockett recently appeared on MSNOW and told host Michael Steele that Republican voters in Texas will ‘absolutely’ vote for her because she’s genuine or something.

Crockett has raised her national profile over the last year through her willingness to go on TV and say incredibly stupid things, but it’s unlikely that she would win over Republican voters in a general election.

It’s also funny how no one at MSNOW even challenges her on any of this.

Breitbart News has details:

Co-host Michael Steele said, “Do you think Republicans, when you get to a general election, can be convinced that you are the representative they need in Washington?”

Crockett said, “Oh, absolutely. Now, Michael, you can maybe talk about this a little bit more because I think the Democrats have a perception of what Republicans want. And I think that, you know, what the real is. I think that Republicans aren’t looking for somebody that is Republican lite. They can just go and get the real thing. What they want is somebody that they know who they are. So I have text messages from Republicans that have made it clear that if there is a certain person that ends up making it through, they are absolutely voting for me because they know who I am.”

She added, “And so that’s why we can understand. When Republicans went out and voted for a less than perfect candidate in Donald Trump, they don’t seek perfection, whereas Democrats typically do.

You’re Gonna Laugh Your Head Off When You Find Out Why Jasmine Crockett’s Opponent Is In Trouble

The Texas Democratic Senate primary race took a bizarre turn when a TikTok influencer claimed one of the candidates made a racist remark about former Rep. Colin Allred, who had dropped out of the race.

Morgan Thompson, a black political TikTok personality, dropped a bombshell allegation on Sunday. She claimed she had a private conversation with state Rep. James Talarico, who is running neck and neck with U.S. Rep. Jasmine Crockett for the Democratic Party’s nomination.

During the conversation, Talarico insulted Allred, allegedly telling her that he “signed up to run against a mediocre black man, not a formidable, intelligent black woman,” referring to Allred and Crockett respectively.

Thompson said she previously backed Talarico before Crockett entered the race in December. She had requested the meeting with Talarico to express her concerns over his association with Democratic strategist James Carville, who has told the party on several occasions that they need to abandon their reliance on woke identity politics.

Scuba school told instructors they were allowed to KILL two students a year, shocking lawsuit from family of girl, 12, who died there alleges

A scuba school told its instructors they were allowed to kill two students a year, according to a lawsuit filed by heartbroken parents whose daughter died while taking lessons there. 

The astonishing claim comes after 12-year-old Dylan Harrison tragically drowned on August 16, 2025, while attending a class at The Scuba Ranch in Terrell, Texas, about 40 minutes outside of Dallas. 

Harrison, who was also known as ‘Dillie Picklez’ by her loved ones, was eager to get her National Association of Underwater Instructors (NAUI) Open Water diving certification so she could join her family members in the underwater activity. 

But sadly, her dreams never came true after she vanished during her training class that summer day. She was found dead about 45ft underwater, approximately 35ft away from the platform. 

Now, a new lawsuit filed on January 30 by Harrison’s mother and father, Heather and Mitchell, detailed the disturbing guidelines the scuba school owner told his employees before being entrusted with students in the water. 

Joseph Johnson, the owner of Scubatoys, a dive and certification shop that the family was using for Harrison, was ‘seen bragging to a roomful of Scubatoys Instructors’ that two students were allowed to die each year and the business would ‘still be fine,’ the documents allege. 

The unearthed footage, filmed in 2017 by an employee, captured a worker telling Johnson not to take lawsuits lightly. 

Stunningly, Johnson appeared to have very little compassion over the statement, shrugging and telling his workers: ‘All I know is we’ve killed what, four people, five people, and we’ve never even done a deposition.

One Glance at Jasmine Crockett’s Website Tells You Everything You Need to Know About Her Senate Campaign

Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett’s (TX-33) campaign website tells you everything you need to know about her bid to become Texas’ next senator.

And what it tells you is almost nothing.

Over the past decade, we have seen a weird trend in which people pretend to run for office without actually trying to win to gain notoriety and fame. I’ve learned to spot such performative politicking, and one red flag is how their campaign websites are set up.

If you head over to Crockett’s campaign website, you will see how little there is to her candidacy. Her home page features a statement from the lawmaker explaining that she is running because she believes “Texas deserves a Senator who will be an independent voice for all 30 million Texans — not a rubber stamp or party line vote for Donald Trump.”

Okay, fine. That’s what you’d expect from a Democratic candidate. When you click on her “About” page, you are treated to a quick overview of her political career and learn that she is “a battle-tested fighter for the people” who has “gone toe-to-toe with Trump, Abbott, and Paxton.”

She promises that she “will fight hard for you and your loved ones and get Texas back on track.”

The question is: How?

That’s where the red flag is. There is absolutely no mention of policy on her website. No idea of what legislation she will introduce. Zilch. Nada. Nothing.

Texas Democrat Running for U.S. Senate Under Fire for Allegedly Making Racist Comment About Black Colleague

James Talarico is a Democrat rep. in Texas who is running for U.S. Senate, but he is not the only one vying for that nomination.

Jasmine Crockett is running for it as well, and so is another black Democrat named Colin Allred.

Talarico may have already nuked his campaign, because he allegedly made some questionable comments about Allred. Isn’t it funny when Democrats succumb to their own attack tactics?

FOX 4 in Texas reports:

Colin Allred blasts Senate hopeful James Talarico over alleged ‘mediocre’ comment

A dispute over alleged racial comments could impact voter preferences in the upcoming Democratic Senate primary.

On Monday afternoon, former congressman Colin Allred blasted Senate candidate James Talarico for comments the senate hopeful reportedly said about his Black former political opponent.

“I understand that James Talarico had the temerity and audacity to say to a Black woman that he had signed up to run against a mediocre black man, meaning me,” Allred said in a social media video.

“This man should not be our nominee for Senate. I was not going to get involved in this race, but don’t come for me unless I send for you, OK James? And keep my name out of your mouth.”

“This man should not be our nominee for Senate. I was not going to get involved in this race, but don’t come for me unless I send for you, OK James? And keep my name out of your mouth.”

TikTok influencer Morgan Thompson laid out the claims from a private conversation she had with Talarico last month, saying he told her he signed up to run against “a mediocre Black man,” referring to Allred, and “not a formidable, intelligent Black woman” referring to his current opponent, Jasmine Crockett.

Private Jet That Crashed in Maine Was Registered to Anti-ICE Lawyers Spending Millions to Elect Democrats in Texas

The private jet that crashed during takeoff from Bangor International Airport in Maine on Sunday evening is registered to prominent anti-ICE lawyers who were spending tens of millions of dollars to elect Democrats in the upcoming Texas primaries.

The crash resulted in seven fatalities and one serious injury.

The jet was registered to Arnold & Itkin Trial Lawyers, known for its aggressive litigation and leftist political activism, including substantial financial support for Democrat causes, particularly those opposing strict immigration enforcement and Republican policies in Texas.

The victims’ names have not been released at this time, but early reports indicate that people associated with the firm were on board.
