Minnesota State Rep, Husband Assassinated, State Senator, Wife, also Shot:

UPDATE: The Minnesota State Patrol warns people not to attend anti-Trump protests planned across the state Saturday after “No Kings” flyers were found in the suspect’s vehicle.

Original story below:

A Minnesota state representative and her husband were shot and killed in a brutal attack at their home on Saturday morning. A state senator and his wife were also attacked and shot multiple times in their home about an hour before the attack on the representative.

Democrat State Representative Melissa Hortman is dead after a person allegedly wearing a police uniform shot her and her husband. The man, believed to be a police impersonator, fired on police officers who arrived at the home to conduct a safety check, CNN reported. The gunman ran back into the house and fled the scene. Police say the vehicle was a black SUV made up to look like a real police vehicle.

Hortman served as the speaker of the Minnesota House of Representatives.

The attack on Hortman followed a similar attack on Democrat State Senator John Hoffman about an hour and a half earlier.

The Minnesota Star-Tribune reported that police have recovered an alleged manifesto and said, “There was a list of individuals and the individuals that were targeted were on that list.”

Brooklyn Park, Minnesota, Police Chief Mark Bruley said, “When we did a search of the vehicle there was a manifesto that identified many lawmakers and other officials, we immediately made alerts to the state, who took action on alerting them and providing security where necessary.”

“This was not a real police officer; this was a person who was clearly impersonating a police officer wearing the trust of this badge to manipulate their way into the home,” the chief added.

A manhunt is underway for the alleged attacker. Police say the suspect is armed and dangerous.

Sec. Sean Duffy: Sanctuary Cities Won’t Get ‘a Red Cent’ to Repair Infrastructure Damaged by Rioters:

“Rogue state actors” will forfeit their Department of Transportation (DOT) funding if they do not comply with federal immigration enforcement efforts, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy warned on Monday.

"The @USDOT will NOT fund rogue state actors who refuse to cooperate with federal immigration enforcement,” Duffy said, issuing a more specific warning to the cities that are allowing rioters to destroy their infrastructure.

"And to cities that stand by while rioters destroy transportation infrastructure — don’t expect a red cent from DOT, either. Follow the law, or forfeit the funding,” he warned.

"We have what is called follow the law. We have so many states and municipalities that don’t follow the law,” Duffy said at the time. “So whether it’s DEI — discriminating against Americans — whether they give illegals driver’s licenses or they’re sanctuary cities or states, if you don’t follow the law, if you’re giving licenses to illegals, if you’re having DEI policies, we’re not going to fund your projects.”

Is Washington Preparing for War? U.S. Air Force Reportedly Sends Out Two Mysterious Encrypted Nuclear Emergency Codes:

Over the weekend, the U.S. Air Force dropped not one but two enigmatic Emergency Action Messages (EAMs).

On June 14, a 246-character encrypted code blasted across the High‑Frequency Global Communications System (HFGCS)—the same system used to transmit emergency alerts to our nuclear-capable bombers, missiles, and subs.

The very next day, June 15, another code—this time clocking in at nearly 290 characters—was broadcast .

EAMs usually top out at around 30 characters. These extended transmissions are, quite frankly, unprecedented, according to The Express. 

Emergency Action Messages (EAMs) are not casual communications—they are highly encrypted, time-sensitive directives used to convey nuclear-launch orders.

According to U.S. military doctrine, EAMs can initiate Major Attack Options (MAOs) or Limited Attack Options (LAOs), and are cryptographically secured to prevent interception or tampering.

Promise Kept: Trump Blocked Every Border Migrant in May:

Border Patrol agents did not release any illegal migrants into the United States during the month of May, a decrease from the more than 60,000 who were released into the U.S. the year before, according to a report.

The New York Post reported that while Border Patrol agents “caught 8,725” illegal aliens attempting to cross the U.S.-Mexico border in May, none of them were released into the country. This represents a 93 percent decrease from May 2024, when roughly 62,000 illegal aliens were released into the U.S. under the Biden administration.

In a statement to the outlet, acting Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Commissioner Pete Flores touted how the CBP “has received historic support” under the “leadership” of the Trump administration.

As Breitbart News reported in April, President Donald Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, revealed that millions of illegal aliens had been released into the U.S. interior intentionally under the Biden administration.

Homan questioned why the Biden administration released “people into the interior United States rather than put them into an ICE bed,” and noted that “they did it on purpose”:

"Why did they release people into the interior United States rather than put them into an ICE bed? Why not put them in an empty ICE bed, $127 a night, rather than a hotel at 500 bucks a night?” Homan posed, concluding that the Biden administration “did it on purpose” before explaining why.

“They did it on purpose, because you put them in ICE detention bed, they get a hearing in 35 days. Court records show nine out of ten people claim asylum, get order removal, they’re gone,” he said.

“But to release them and put them a hotel room at 500 bucks a night, their hearings could be 5, 7, 9 years. You pull out all appeals. And what are they hoping for then? That another Democrat administration is in power,” awarding sweeping amnesty, Homan concluded, emphasizing that the Biden administration’s moves was about future political power for Democrats.

Under the Biden administration, nearly all migrants were released as they crossed the southern border. After they were released, migrants would get jobs in order to pay off their huge smuggling debts and would also encourage the next wave of migrants to make the trek to the border. In contrast, under the Trump administration, migrants are detained and prevented from being able to pay off their smuggling debts, which discourages other migrants from also making the journey.

REPORT: Iran State Media Issues Terrifying Warning About a ‘Surprise Tonight that the World Will Remember for Centuries’:

Iranian state media has reportedly issued a cryptic and terrifying warning, declaring that “there is a surprise tonight that the world will remember for centuries,” according to a bombshell report from Saudi-based Asharq News.

Details remain scarce, but the ominous tone from Tehran signals a potential escalation that could dwarf anything we’ve seen before.

REPORT: Presidential E-4B “Doomsday Plane” Lands Near D.C. Amid Israel-Iran War:

A U.S. Air Force E‑4B “Doomsday Plane” (also called “Nightwatch” or the National Airborne Operations Center) landed at Joint Base Andrews near Washington, D.C., on Tuesday night, after flying from Barksdale AFB in Louisiana, i24News reported.

The E‑4B serves as a high-altitude, nuclear-hardened airborne command center for the U.S. President, Secretary of Defense, and Joint Chiefs.

Outfitted with EMP shielding, hardened communications, and room for dozens, it is designed to maintain continuity of government in worst-case scenarios—and stay aloft for days via in-flight refueling.

Historically, the only other publicly known occasion an E‑4B landed near Washington in response to a crisis was on September 11, 2001, following the terrorist attacks.

Though the aircraft does occasionally conduct training flights or readiness drills, the flight’s erratic path and timing — coinciding with the latest escalation between Israel and Iran — have raised eyebrows among military observers and aviation trackers.  
... its activation may reflect heightened alertness within U.S. defense infrastructure.

Trump has already reportedly approved attack on Iran but is giving the regime one last chance:

The report said he is waiting to see if Iran will negotiate on a nuke deal.

As tensions escalate in the war between Israel and Iran, President Donald Trump has already approved the decision to strike against Iran, according to a Wall Street Journal report.

The report on Wednesday cited sources close to the president and said he has withheld the final order in an effort to give Iranian officials a chance to accept negotiations on a peace deal as well as nuclear proliferation.

“I have ideas on what to do, but I haven't made a final — I like to make the final decision one second before it’s due,” said the president to reporters on Wednesday.

The report was the most recent evidence that the U.S. may jump into the fray to defend Israel, despite the warnings and threats from the Iranian regime.

Donald Trump: Iran Has ‘Within’ Two Weeks to Negotiate:

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt read a statement from Trump on Iran at the top of the press briefing a day after he said he “may” or “may not” order a strike on nuclear sites in Iran.

“Regarding the situation in Iran, I know there has been a lot of speculation amongst all of you in the media regarding the president’s decision-making and whether or not the United States will be directly involved,” she said.

“In light of that news, I have a message directly from the President … ‘Based on the fact that there’s a substantial chance of negotiations that may or may not take place with Iran in the near future, I will make my decision whether or not to go within the next two weeks,” she said.

Correspondence between the United States and Iran has continued, according to Leavitt, and any deal would be centered on no uranium enrichment and Iran not being able to produce a nuclear weapon.

Let’s be very clear: Iran has all that it needs to achieve a nuclear weapon. All they need is a decision from the supreme leader to do that, and it would take a couple of weeks to complete the production of that weapon, which would of course, pose an existential threat not just to Israel, but to the United States and to the entire world. And that is something that the entire world, including countries like Russia, is in agreement with, that Iran should not and cannot obtain a nuclear weapon.

The briefing comes hours after Trump wrote in a Truth Social post that the Wall Street Journal “has no idea what” his thoughts on Iran are, following an anonymously-sourced article from the publication claiming he authorized “attack plans” but was withholding a final order.

Iran is bombing hospitals and DJT still wants to play Lets Make a Deal.

Bibi, on the other hand, told the ayatollah We're coming after you; You're a dead man.

I think Trump is hoping that Israel will deal with the problem before he has to.

Do you remember the dream someone had from several years ago that when the rapture happened it was a holiday in the summer with fireworks going off?  Guess when two weeks from now is?  The 3th of July!  

It could be like the last attack.  The deadline expires and then the next day everything blows up on the 4th of July.
