By Louis Casiano Bryan Kohberger, the man convicted of fatally stabbing four University of Idaho students, is asking a court to disqualify the judge in his case and has asked for a change of venue as he attempts to take back his guilty plea.  Motions for both requests were filed Thursday by Kohberger’s new court-appointed attorney, Gregory Rauch. The move came after Kohberger was convicted of first-degree murder.  Kohberger has since claimed he is innocent and has blamed his defense team for leading him to make a false confession.  The motions are asking for Fourth Judicial District Judge Steven Hippler to be disqualified for Kohberger’s post-conviction court proceedings and for the hearings to be moved out of Ada County. The motion to disqualify Hippler questions his impartiality.  “This motion does not rest upon one adverse ruling, one harsh statement, or the mere fact that the judge who presided over Bryan Kohberger’s criminal case has been assigned to his...

By Kyle N. A. Becker We hear an awful lot about “the 1 percent” in American politics. Usually, that means billionaires, Wall Street executives and people with private jets. But there is another 1 percent that arguably deserves a lot more attention from policymakers: the tiny share of habitual offenders responsible for a wildly disproportionate amount of violent crime. A study circulating again this week provides a striking illustration. Researchers examining the entire Swedish population born between 1958 and 1980 — nearly 2.4 million people — found that roughly 1 percent of the population accounted for 63 percent of all violent-crime convictions recorded between 1973 and 2004. The persistent-offender group was defined as people with at least three violent convictions. That study was published more than a decade ago, involved Sweden rather than the United States, and measured convictions rather than every crime actually committed. So it shouldn't simply be transplanted into an...

By Chris Donaldson Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has awarded a $16.7 million contract for 6,000 pairs of electric shock gloves following reports that the agency would equip officers with “conductive distraction and de-escalation devices” for use in carrying out their duties. A notice posted to a federal database on Thursday says that the agency entered into the no-bid contract with Kentucky-based Compliant Technologies LLC, which manufactures the devices known as G.L.O.V.E., or Generated Low Output Voltage Emitter. According to CBS News , “the device operates as a conventional patrol glove until an officer activates its ‘electrical mode.’ Once activated, the device must make direct contact with a person’s skin to deliver a painful shock designed to force compliance.”  ICE JUST SIGNED THE CONTRACT 6,000 pairs of electric shock gloves are now on order. They will be deployed against illegal alien resisters AND rioters who obstruct ICE operations. Letiti...

By Ari Hoffman A Mexican national who received protection from deportation under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program has been sentenced to federal prison after authorities said he trafficked firearms and acquired more than 120 guns in Oregon. Vincente Cortes Quiroz, 37, was sentenced Thursday to 18 months in federal prison followed by three years of supervised release, according to the US Attorney’s Office for the District of Oregon . The federal court docket confirms Quiroz was scheduled for sentencing Thursday before US District Judge Adrienne Nelson in Portland. Mister Potatohead appointed the judge in 2023. A federal judge has sentenced an illegal alien from Mexico to 18 months in prison for trafficking over 70 firearms in Oregon. Vincente Cortes Quiroz, 37, was a DACA recipient, selling his illicit firearm supply to criminals. pic.twitter.com/Wj9gO5GLgG — Katie Daviscourt 📸 (@KatieDaviscourt) August 28, 2026 According to federal prosecutors , investigators di...

By Kyle N. A. Becker The National Football League is bringing back "Woke" messages on end zones and helmets. Front Office Sports confirmed that the NFL is again pushing the race-shaming practices. The NFL will again place anti-racism messages across playing fields and player helmets in 2026, Front Office Sports has learned. It will be the seventh straight season the Shield has been out front on social justice messaging. The strategy dates back to 2020, when the killing of George Floyd by a white police officer ignited a long hot summer of protests and social unrest. “Can confirm that we are continuing with both the end zone stencils and helmet decals this season,” an NFL spokeswoman told FOS in a statement. This would be the seventh year in a row of the NFL scolding its audience with Woke messaging, as if broadcasting insipid statements about racism is going to stop a Klan rally. Those Klan rallies mostly stopped themselves, after the SPLC funding got cut off. The NFL w...

By James Cirrone President Donald Trump on Friday signed an executive order to establish the U.S. Space Academy. Trump said the location of the academy was yet to be determined but compared its significance to that of the United States Military Academy in West Point, N.Y., and the United States Coast Guard Academy in New London, Connecticut. The U.S. Space Academy will be for students looking to enter the U.S. Space Force, a new branch of the military Trump created during his first term. The president said it will also serve NASA and the civilian spaceflight industry. "We're going to have an academy for what the people in this room love the most. That's exciting. That's really exciting. And I'm going to be choosing a location very shortly," Trump said during remarks at NASA's Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas . The other purpose of the event was to award the four Artemis II astronauts with the Congressional Space Medal of Ho...

By Kurt Schlichter Just what the hell are the Canadians thinking? Do they think that if they cry enough, America’s going to roll over? We’re now in another trade war with them, and the Canadians are whining, and the Democrats — who never side with America — are whining right along with them. It’s about time to be done with the country that is touted as America’s best buddy but is actually tied for its most annoying next-door neighbor. They cry that America is being mean because it’s looking out for its own interests. How dare America expect Canada to pull its weight on its own defense? How dare America not want to perpetuate unfair and unbalanced tariff and trade rules in perpetuity? And how dare America not recognize the moral superiority of a country that, if it were a stereotype, would be a fugly, sexually dysfunctional wine woman with a “Hate Has No Home Here” sign on the front lawn of the condo it shares with five cats, all named after characters in "Twilight." Ame...

Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan’s new defense pact is already attracting interest from Bangladesh, Egypt, and Iran. But expansion could reshape regional security, alliances, and power balances. By GIORGIA VALENTE Less than three weeks after Saudi Arabia , Turkey , and Pakistan signed the Mecca Joint Defense Agreement, attention is shifting from the pact’s collective defense pledge to a more consequential question: Who else might join it? Bangladesh has publicly expressed interest, Egypt says it is studying the prospect, and Iran, arguably the most consequential possible addition, has found itself at the center of conflicting reports. An Iranian parliamentary media official said Tehran had received an invitation, but the Foreign Ministry later said no official invitation had been delivered. The uncertainty is significant because enlargement could determine whether the Aug. 7 agreement remains a trilateral security arrangement linking three major Muslim powers or dev...
