3 days agoCenter Right

New York’s socialist mayor, Zohran Mamdani, promises to spend $22 billion over the next five years building 200,000 new “affordable” homes and “preserving” another 200,000. Time will tell if he meets that goal even as he sets higher minimum wages for construction workers. But an even larger transfer of wealth is embedded in the mayor’s […]

New Melania-Epstein claims emerge from ex of Trump envoy: report

Former Brazilian model Amanda Ungaro made explosive claims about first lady Melania Trump over the weekend, tying her to the Jeffrey Epstein scandal, according to a new report. In a since-deleted post on X, Ungaro claimed that Melania Trump was one of Epstein's escorts, and that is how she was introduced to her husband, President Donald Trump, the Daily Beast reported. Ungaro shared a WhatsApp recording on X in which she accused her former partner, Paolo Zampolli, one of Trump's appointees to the Kennedy Center's Board of Trustees, of lying about introducing the Trumps in 1998, the report added. “Let’s tell the public you never were the one introducing Melania to Trump. It was Jeffrey Epstein, as she was [an] escort of Jeffrey Epstein. That’s how she met Donald Trump,” Ungaro said in the recording, posted around 11 p.m. Sunday. “And I know, because I was with you [for] 20 years and you always told me it was not you—it was Jeffrey Epstein,” she added.Ungaro's claims are at odds with statements Melania Trump made during her seemingly impromptu press conference in April about her relationship with Epstein. Melania forcefully denied being introduced to Trump through Epstein or having any involvement in his crimes during the press conference. “I am not Epstein’s victim," Melania Trump said at the time. "Epstein did not introduce me to Donald Trump. I met my husband, by chance, at a New York City party in 1998. This initial encounter with my husband is documented in detail in my book, 'Melania.'”Zampolli told the Daily Beast that Ungaro's claims are a "disgrace" and made him concerned for her mental health.Ungaro's claims also surfaced at a time when she is embroiled in a custody battle with Zampolli. She accused her former partner of using his influence to have her arrested by immigration agents last year, according to the report.

'Violent agitator' savagely bit ICE agent during riots in New Jersey, says DHS

A savage attack on an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer has led to the arrest of a "violent agitator" as described by the Dept. of Homeland Security. Photos posted by DHS Sec. Markwayne Mullin showed the bleeding bite mark left on the forearm of the agent, who was allegedly attacked during rioting at an ICE facility in Newark, New Jersey. 'Anyone who assaults a law enforcement officer will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.' "Last night, a violent rioter savagely kicked and bit ICE law enforcement officers outside of Delaney Hall. Today, this violent agitator is being charged," wrote Mullin on social media Friday. Anti-ICE protesters claim that detainees at the ICE facility at Delaney Hall are being held under improper conditions and that some are responding with a hunger strike. Mullin has denied the allegations and claimed that the hunger strike is actually based on demands from detainees that they be fed food from their respective ethnic origins. "There was only a handful of individuals that was refusing to eat because they want their ethnic right food," he said from the White House. "Well, they can go back to their country and get whatever food they want. ... This isn't Holiday Inn."A statement from the DHS indicated that five of the six arrested on Friday in relation to the anti-ICE violence were alleged agitators from outside New Jersey. The agency cited this as evidence that the demonstrations were a "coordinated campaign of violence" against federal agents. "Our ICE law enforcement officers are facing an 8,000% increase in death threats and a 1,300% increase in assaults against them," the agency added. "This violence against law enforcement must end." In another incident from the Delaney Hall center, an agitator was recorded on video Wednesday screaming that he would kill the wife and children of an ICE agent. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said agents were actively seeking to identify and arrest the man for the alleged death threat against a federal agent.

Markwayne Mullin X post There are about 300 detainees being held at the privately run Newark ICE facility that holds about 1,000 beds. The detainees also have access to digital tablets with online connection. "The Trump Administration will ALWAYS stand with our federal law enforcement officers," Mullin added. "Anyone who assaults a law enforcement officer will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law."Like Blaze News?
