WASHINGTON, D.C. — Secretary of War Pete Hegseth awoke Tuesday morning with a brutal hangover, only to be seized with terror by the sight of British Redcoats standing on the White House lawn.

A House Judiciary subcommittee is scrutinizing the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act to determine if the Biden‑Harris administration has used the federal law to target pro‑life advocates.

“As we just saw with the Department of Justice’s recent indictment against the Southern Poverty Law Center, important work is being done to hold left‑wing activist networks accountable—especially those increasingly operating as de facto partners of the federal government to undermine the rule of law,” Rep. Chip Roy, R‑Texas, told The Daily Signal.

“Nowhere have we seen this more than with the Biden‑Harris administration’s weaponization of the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act, where enforcement was driven by extremist abortion networks to go after pro‑life Americans.”

During Tuesday’s meeting of the Subcommittee on the Constitution and Limited Government—titled “From Tool to Weapon: The FACE Act and the Dangers of Federalizing Criminal Law”—pro‑life activists who were prosecuted under the law, along with policy experts, testified that the legislation has been distorted by federal officials to restrict First Amendment rights and prosecute peaceful protesters.

“This hearing aims to expose these leftist groups and the constitutional implications of over‑federalizing criminal law,” Roy, the subcommittee chairman, said.

Democrats on the panel disputed those claims. Ranking Member Mary Gay Scanlon, D‑Pa., said Congress enacted the FACE Act in 1994 to protect abortion providers from violent attacks.

“Eliminating the FACE Act is a right‑wing priority drawn directly from the Project 2025 manifesto,” Scanlon said. “The facts stay the same: We continue to see criminal obstruction, threats, intimidation, and violence against abortion providers and the women seeking those services. The FACE Act is needed now as much as it’s ever been.”

Rep. Jamie Raskin, D‑Md., compared anti‑abortion activists arrested under the FACE Act to the “politically motivated” Jan. 6 protesters.

Witnesses challenged that characterization, including pro‑life activist Eva Edl, who testified that she was imprisoned under the Biden‑Harris administration for protesting outside abortion clinics. Edl said she was “counseling mothers” rather than threatening clinic staff.

“In my case, I was only charged with a first‑offense misdemeanor in Tennessee, but in Michigan I was convicted of two separate violations of FACE, faced up to 13 years in prison, and up to $300,000 in fines,” Edl said. “I am before you today to plead with our government to repeal the FACE Act, because it is targeting people who want to do right.”

“I plead with our government to stop the killing and go back to the foundational principles our forefathers built this country on—that all human life has equal value before God,” she added.

Roger Severino, vice president of economic and domestic policy at The Heritage Foundation and former director of the Office of Civil Rights at the Department of Health and Human Services, told the committee that the FACE Act is the “poster child of over‑criminalization.”

“Under our constitutional system, the federal government has only enumerated powers—it only has the authority explicitly given to it by the people in the Constitution,” Severino said.

Addressing Raskin’s claim that courts have upheld FACE Act prosecutions under the commerce clause, Severino said Congress has used the clause as a “catch‑all” to justify federal involvement in nearly every aspect of American life.

“We have delegated far too much authority to federal bureaucrats,” Severino said. “That discretion has given them unchecked power, which has been abused with the FACE Act and other cases.”

WASHINGTON, D.C. — A heated dispute broke out on Capitol Hill on Tuesday as President Donald Trump and Congresswoman Ilhan Omar clashed over whether the correct title of the Apostle Paul's epistle was "Two Corinthians" or "Eleven Corinthians."

The Trump administration is slowly chipping away at discounted tuition for illegal immigrants at public colleges and universities throughout the United States but there is a lot of work to be done since most of the 22 states (and the District of Columbia) that offered the pricey benefit when the president got elected to his second term continue to do so. The cost to American taxpayers is astounding, over a billion dollars annually, according to legislation (Put American Students First Act) introduced earlier this year by a U.S. senator to prevent any alien who is unlawfully admitted for permanent residence from obtaining in-state tuition rates at public institutions of higher education. If it passes the measure will take effect nationwide, though in the meantime the Department of Justice (DOJ) is working on the issue with legal challenges that have been largely ignored or, in some cases, defeated in court.

The agency has sued eight states that give illegal aliens special tuition rates, but only half of them have taken the lawsuits seriously enough to make changes. Texas, Oklahoma and Kentucky were the first to rescind the benefit under federal pressure and just a few days ago Nebraska reached an agreement with the administration to finally end a policy that for over two decades has subsidized the public education of illegal immigrants. Under a consent decree filed this week, Nebraska will permanently end laws that provide in-state tuition and financial assistance for illegal aliens. The agreement will resolve the DOJ’s claims that the state unconstitutionally discriminates against American citizens in favor of illegal aliens. “Specifically, Nebraska’s challenged laws grant reduced tuition to illegal aliens over U.S. citizens, which not only violates federal law but also incentivizes illegal immigration and rewards illegal immigrants with scholarship benefits that U.S. citizens are not eligible for,” the DOJ writes in a statement announcing the consent decree this week. In the press release Associate Attorney General Stanley Woodward encourages all states to follow Nebraska’s “commonsense correction” of a policy that gave preferential treatment to illegal aliens over American citizens.

The reality is that most states that provide illegal immigrants with discounted tuition are flipping the finger at the administration. Violators include Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Hawaii, Illinois, Kansas, Maryland, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Utah, Vermont, Virginia and Washington. California, Oregon, Washington, Colorado and Illinois have disregarded DOJ lawsuits and last month a judge dismissed the agency’s case against Minnesota ruling that the state’s public universities can continue to offer in-state tuition and scholarships to immigrants in the country without legal status. Illinois has not only ignored the administration’s suit filed last fall, but also passed a special law making undocumented students eligible for state and local financial aid, including grants, scholarships and stipends, as of January 2026. The measure includes the same benefits for transgender students who are disqualified for failing to register for selective service.

A 30-year-old federal law known as the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 prohibits giving illegal aliens discounted in-state tuition at public colleges and universities unless the same rates are also offered to out-of-state American students. For years, and in some cases decades, states have violated the law with no consequences. In the Nebraska complaint filed earlier this month, federal prosecutors write that awarding illegal aliens discounted tuition is preferential treatment squarely prohibited and preempted by Congress. Furthermore, the court filing says federal laws mandate that “an alien who is not lawfully present in the United States shall not be eligible on the basis of residence within a State . . . for any postsecondary education benefit unless a citizen or national of the United States is eligible for such a benefit . . . without regard to whether the citizen or national is such a resident.” In direct conflict with federal law, over a dozen states continue to reward illegal aliens with discounted in-state tuition rates based on residence within that state, while explicitly denying eligibility for resident tuition rates to American citizens who are not residents. While it is encouraging to see the Trump administration working to get violators to comply, most are not and American taxpayers keep paying the price.

On Nov. 5, 2009, U.S. Army Maj. Nidal Hasan shouted, “Allahu Akbar.” He then opened fire at Fort Hood, murdering 13 people and wounding dozens.

Hasan’s jihadist ties were clear. He had business cards identifying him as “SoA” (Soldier of Allah), emails with al-Qaeda cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, and an explicitly Islamist ideology. He even had a presentation defending suicide bombings under Islamic law.

But the Obama administration concluded the massacre was simply generic “workplace violence.”

On April 25, 2026, Caltech-educated “Teacher of the Month” Cole Tomas Allen tried to breach security at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, opening fire outside the ballroom where President Donald Trump and top officials were gathered.

Allen left behind an explicit anti-Trump manifesto in which he called himself the “Friendly Federal Assassin,” railed against Trump administration policies, and listed targets connected to the administration. He had previously posted numerous anti-Trump sentiments online.

The motive eluded President Barack Obama, who took to social media to offer the usual meaningless boilerplate about condemning all violence while saying that “we don’t yet have the details about the motives.”

Allen has been charged with attempting to assassinate the president.

This denial of obvious ideological motivation is a familiar playbook—once used for radical Islamic terrorism, now repurposed for radical left violence. False equivalence and moral evasion replace any sober analysis.

Recall Obama’s 2015 National Prayer Breakfast remarks, where he warned against getting on our “high horse” about ISIS and equated its barbarism to the Crusades, the Inquisition, American slavery, and Jim Crow—straining to dilute the unique threat of Islamic terrorism by dragging in distant and even revisionist history.

But left-wing terrorism, like Islamic terrorism before it, isn’t a “both sides” problem. The pattern has escalated over the past decade amid the left’s dehumanization of Trump and MAGA as threats to democracy.

It wasn’t a Republican who nearly killed Rep. Steve Scalise, R-La., at the 2017 congressional baseball practice. It wasn’t a Republican who slaughtered six—including three 9-year-old children—at Nashville’s Covenant Christian School in 2023. It wasn’t a Republican who attacked a Minneapolis Catholic church in 2025, murdering two children with anti-Christian and “kill Trump” rage. And it wasn’t a MAGA supporter who assassinated Charlie Kirk in 2025, as late-night television host Jimmy Kimmel falsely and irresponsibly claimed.

What these attackers all shared is that they were radicalized leftists whose manifestos and digital footprints echoed core Democrat talking points.

Allen’s attack marks the third attempt on Trump’s life in less than two years, following the 2024 golf course incident in West Palm Beach and the 2024 Pennsylvania rally shooting, when a bullet grazed Trump’s ear and firefighter Corey Comperatore heroically died. No president has faced this many credible assassination attempts in such a short time.

Unlike jihadist attacks, which often appear random with mass murder as the primary objective, these radicalized Democrats target conservatives, MAGA, and Republicans with specificity.

Prominent Democrats offered the same deflection after Kirk’s assassination as they have since the most recent attempt on Trump’s life. They have made generic condemnations, vague platitudes, and a complete refusal to confront the obvious ideological radicalization that produced his killer.

Thus far, the only thing more predictable than violence carried out by indoctrinated leftists against MAGA targets is the Left’s ability to move on instantly while taking zero accountability—no introspection, no self-examination, no acknowledgment of the toxic rhetoric and dehumanization that fuel the violence.

When will such accountability arrive?

After Kirk’s assassination, I expected a national reckoning with the spiritual and cultural rot producing these terrorists. I even wrote a book about it, “For Christ and Country: The Martyrdom of Charlie Kirk.” But I was naïve to have such high expectations.

Not only did no reckoning come, it was actively suppressed. I experienced some part of this when Amazon refused to offer a Kindle version and has repeatedly blocked physical sales, telling customers it could not ship the book to their addresses.

As I argue in my book, the modern Left rejected God and the Judeo-Christian foundations of this nation, replacing them with government power, identity politics, and moral relativism. This created a gaping spiritual vacuum filled with rage, envy, and hatred. These can turn teachers, engineers, and even “Teacher of the Year” award winners into assassins.

Recently the Southern Poverty Law Center has been exposed for manufacturing and funding hatred. My book explains how the Anti-Defamation League has worked to cover up left-wing violence and falsely insists that America’s real problem is right-wing extremism.

The denial, false equivalence, and refusal to name the ideology driving this violence only fuels more violenceand makes the next attack inevitable.

This isn’t random. It is the direct and predictable result of a worldview that treats conservatives, Christians, and American patriots as existential enemies who must be eliminated.

The only thing all these killers have in common is that they were radicalized by the Left. It is well past time for an honest conversation. America desperately needs to reckon with the pathological ideas that are fueling violence. Lives depend on it.
