https://youtu.be/iyjetm6-puU?si=5mX53GtAGO7nGoUg WATCH: Bernie-Backed Troy Jackson Was Once a Pro-Life REPUBLICAN Following the withdrawal of scandal-ridden Graham Platner from the Maine Senatorial Race, the DSA has coalesced behind a familiar figure backed by Bernie Sanders and organized labor: former Maine Senate President Troy Jackson, as previously reported by The Gateway Pundit. His selection raises questions about how the modern left’s priorities have shifted and how economic populism has become a tool powerful enough to neutralize political positions that were once incompatible with the current progressive movement. This is because Jackson’s political career did not begin on the left.

Republican goes to war against judge Trump singled out for impeachment

After President Donald Trump singled him out for possible impeachment, a Republican lawmaker is officially going to war against Judge James Boasberg with a new bill inspired by GOP grievances against him, per a report from Bloomberg.Boasberg is a Washington D.C., federal district judge appointed by former President Barack Obama, who first drew the ire of MAGA Republicans in 2025 when he ruled against Trump's attempt to use the Alien Enemies Act as a means to carry out his mass deportation agenda. Those same Republicans later accused him, with no evidence, that he had forced his way onto a case against the Trump administration for its use of the Signal messaging app for military communications, despite the court's repeated insistence that he had been randomly assigned to the case per its standard policy.In light of his frequent rulings against the administration, Trump has called for Boasberg to be impeached, which prompted pushback from Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts. Numerous other Republicans began to echo those calls, including Sen. Eric Schmitt, a Missouri Republican, who also this week unveiled a new proposed bill, the BOASBERG Act, that would target the unfounded allegations against the judge."A Republican senator has introduced legislation that would require random case assignment in federal district courts," Bloomberg's report explained, adding later, "If passed, Schmitt’s legislation would also require district courts to publicly share their practices when it comes to the assignment of civil cases, or to say why cases can’t be randomly assigned. Anyone who attempted to 'manipulate or evade the randomized case assignment system' would face penalties, according to the bill. District judges would also be removed from a case if the Supreme Court vacates, reverses, or stays their rulings. Appeals court judges would also lose their case assignments if the Supreme Court vacated or reversed a judgment that affirmed a lower court ruling."The report continued: "Under the bill, federal appeals courts would also be subject to random assignment procedures when it comes to creating the three-judge panels that hear cases, and cases could only be reassigned in limited circumstances. Judges would also be randomly assigned when it comes to the rare three-judge courts stood up to weigh challenges to district maps. And both district and appeals courts would have to share statistics annually on judicial assignments and reassignments."“The BOASBERG Act prevents Judges from forcing their way onto cases and is an important piece of court transparency legislation that will help restore the American people’s confidence in our judiciary,” Schmitt said in a statement about the new proposal.Bloomberg also noted a segment of Schmitt's proposal, which said that it was not meant "to prevent district courts from assigning cases filed within a division to 1 or more judges." The outlet interpreted this as an effort not to target the practice of "judge shopping," wherein litigants find a way to file their suits in smaller districts where they are "all but guaranteed" to land a judge friendly to their cause, which conservatives have been accused of doing frequently in recent years.

'Surprising accusation' reveals RFK Jr's Trump days are numbered: analysis

President Donald Trump is reportedly growing frustrated with Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on a key issue, and that suggests his time in the administration is running short.The Wall Street Journal reported the president is running out of patience with Kennedy's probe into the supposed link between vaccines and autism, and MS NOW's Hayes Brown argued that may be putting the notorious vaccine skeptic on thin ice."It’s a surprising accusation, given the centrality of vaccine skepticism to Kennedy’s political brand and the Make America Healthy Again movement he is spearheading," Brown wrote. "It also cuts against the advice that the White House itself reportedly delivered earlier this year, to have HHS downplay the focus on vaccines ahead of the midterm elections."The Journal reported that Trump wants Kennedy to push federal guidelines toward fewer recommended childhood vaccinations, hoping this could eventually lower autism rates. Tensions reportedly boiled over in a mid-June Oval Office meeting, where Trump told Kennedy directly that he wasn't doing enough, and that he's grown disappointed after giving him more than a year and a half to deliver results."Despite the clear scientific consensus, the HHS department under Kennedy has already launched several new studies on vaccine safety and attempted to recommend a reduction in the number of immunization shots that children receive," Brown wrote. "But that isn’t enough for Trump, who has shown that he doesn’t care about backing his own wild claims with solid proof."The column emphasizes that no credible scientific link between vaccines and autism exists, reminding readers that the original 1998 study behind the claim was retracted in 2010 after its author was discredited, and no subsequent research has replicated its findings."Working for the federal government now requires a willingness to share in the president’s delusions," Brown wrote. "But providing evidence sufficient to convince people outside of the MAGA cult of personality, including federal judges and grand juries, has hampered efforts to deal out the vengeance that Trump has demanded."Brown compared Kennedy's predicament to FBI Director Kash Patel's struggles delivering on years of promised revelations about Jeffrey Epstein's death — claims that similarly evaporated once officials were in position to act on them, causing political damage to the administration. Trump has shown a similar pattern with unsubstantiated claims about the 2020 election."There are plenty of people in the world who are willing to say obviously untrue things in public for attention, money or both, but in private acknowledge the limits of their claims," Brown wrote. "But when Trump has decided something is true, there’s little that can shake his conviction.

US troops brace to surrender phones after deadly attack video sullied Trump: report

U.S. troops deployed to the Middle East are bracing for the seizure of their phones after a viral video of a deadly Iranian attack left President Donald Trump answering for the deaths of two soldiers, according to a new report. The top U.S. commander for the Middle East warned troops in a July 28 letter that cellphone videos shared online were helping Iran assess the damage from its own strikes, Reuters reported.In Jordan, some troops have already been told their phones will be taken in the coming days, Reuters reported.Footage posted by the open-source account OSINTtechnical on X circulated on July 17 before CENTCOM confirmed that two American service members had been killed at Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan during an Iranian missile and drone attack, Times Now reported.Reuters reported that the prospect of confiscations was already rattling families at home — writing that "the possible seizure of phones has stoked anxiety among some family members, already on edge in recent months as they read Iranian claims of deadly strikes on bases throughout the Middle East."Admiral Brad Cooper, head of CENTCOM, argued in his letter that open-source reporting was effectively doing Iran's targeting work for them."Detailed lists, descriptions, and analyses of what was hit, openly published by news outlets are essentially performing Iran's Battle Damage Assessment [a military term for evaluating strike damage] for them, free of charge," Cooper wrote, Reuters reported.A service member's Meta smart glasses recorded footage posted to Instagram showing troops evacuating to a bunker during the July 17 attack — the kind of open-source exposure, Cooper wrote, that forced Trump to defend the war publicly before the Pentagon could control the narrative.Speaking to the New York Post shortly after the attack, Trump deflected Democratic criticism by invoking prior conflicts."Have you ever asked how many people died in Vietnam? Have you ever asked how many people died in Afghanistan in one day? In one day — run by Sleepy Joe Biden," Trump said."And it's a shame, but in this case, they died because they don't want to see Iran have a nuclear weapon and they don't want to see the Middle East blown up," Trump told the Post.Russia banned smartphones for soldiers in 2019 after open-source journalists used troops' social media posts to expose secret military operations in Ukraine and Syria, the BBC reported.Cooper stopped short of ordering specific steps, and a third source told Reuters the confiscations were not yet confirmed region-wide.
