October 2, 2026 – DOJ announces the dismantling of an international Hamas fundraising network reaching directly into America

THEY ASKED FOR GAZA AID. THE FEDS SAY THE MONEY WENT TO HAMAS.

Compassion was allegedly the bait. Hamas was the beneficiary.

Trump’s DOJ has announced the dismantling of an alleged international Hamas fundraising network reaching directly into America:

Six arrests. Three in the United States. Three in France.

Prosecutors say social media appeals promising humanitarian assistance for Gaza collected more than $1.7 MILLION—while funneling money to Hamas.

The alleged organizer, Saleem Alzaq, is described by federal authorities as a deputy battalion leader in Hamas’s military wing.

Two Louisiana brothers allegedly contributed approximately $94,000 and $11,000. A Florida man allegedly provided nearly $50,000.

Treasury says the broader network collected more than $2 MILLION for Hamas—including $1.5 million AFTER the October 7 massacre—and used charitable fronts and cryptocurrency channels.

Think about that: the suffering of civilians allegedly became a fundraising pitch for the terrorist organization helping perpetuate that suffering.

The defendants are presumed innocent. Prosecutors must prove their case.

But the principle is clear:

Protect legitimate humanitarian aid. Prosecute those who knowingly finance terrorism. Follow the money across every border it crosses.

A donation button must never become a financial lifeline for Hamas. Ever!

God bless America! 🇺🇸

October 2, 2026 – Former US Congressman sentenced to 10 years in federal prison for secretly acting as agent of Venezuelan government

Former U.S. Congressman David Rivera was sentenced today to 10 years in federal prison for secretly acting as an unregistered agent of the Venezuelan government and laundering millions of dollars connected to that work.

U.S. District Judge Melissa Damian imposed the sentence after a federal jury convicted Rivera, 61, of conspiracy to violate the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA), violating FARA, conspiracy to commit money laundering, and four counts of engaging in transactions in criminally derived property.

“Today’s sentence reinforces a simple rule: foreign influence in America cannot operate in the shadows,” said U.S. Attorney Jason A. Reding Quiñones for the Southern District of Florida. “If you act at the request, direction, or control of a foreign government and engage in covered political activity, you must comply with our disclosure laws. That can include conduct like arranging a meeting with policymakers, lobbying a government official, or promoting a foreign government’s message on social media.

“For a former Congressman from South Florida, this betrayal cuts especially deep. Rivera represented a community shaped by generations of families who fled communist oppression and came to this country seeking freedom. He knew that history. He knew what this community had endured. Yet the jury found that, for millions of dollars, he secretly used the access and relationships entrusted to him to advance the interests of the Maduro regime.

“Today’s sentence of 10 years is the consequence of that choice. In South Florida, we will aggressively enforce the laws that protect our country and our communities from covert foreign influence.”

“Today’s sentencing represents a meaningful step toward restoring public trust in the integrity of our democratic processes,” said Special Agent in Charge Brett D. Skiles of the FBI Miami Field Office. “It also demonstrates the impact of federal partners working together and combining their investigative expertise. And no attempt to conceal unlawful conduct will remain beyond the FBI’s reach.”

“This case shows that laundering illicit funds in the United States will not go unchecked,” said Acting Special Agent in Charge Charles E. Miller of the IRS Criminal Investigation (IRS-CI) Florida Field Office. “The partnership between IRS-CI and our law enforcement counterparts was vital in exposing this operation and protecting the integrity of the U.S. financial system.”

According to court records and evidence presented at trial, Rivera and co-defendant Esther Nuhfer obtained a $50 million contract with a subsidiary of Venezuela’s state-owned and state-controlled oil company, Petróleos de Venezuela, S.A. (PDVSA), to advance the interests of the Venezuelan regime in the U.S. Without registering as foreign agents as required by law, Rivera and Nuhfer lobbied U.S. officials, including then-U.S. Senator Marco Rubio and U.S. Representative Pete Sessions, and arranged meetings between U.S. policymakers and high-ranking Venezuelan officials, including then-President Nicolás Maduro and then-Foreign Minister Delcy Rodríguez. Rivera and Nuhfer used coded language in text messages to describe their activities.

The evidence at trial further showed that Rivera deposited approximately $1.5 million in proceeds from the contract to his Florida state congressional campaign account between March 2017 and August 2018, among other personnel uses. Nuhfer used approximately $455,000 in proceeds to purchase a residence in Key Colony Beach.

Nuhfer, 52, who was convicted at trial of conspiracy to violate FARA, violating FARA, conspiracy to commit money laundering, and engaging in a transaction in criminally derived property, was previously sentenced to 60 months in federal prison.

Assistant U.S. Attorneys Harold Schimkat and Roger Cruz, along with Trial Attorney David Ryan of the Justice Department’s National Security Division, are prosecuting the case.

FBI Miami and IRS-CI Florida Field Office are investigating the case. This investigation is supported by the Treasury Executive Office for Asset Forfeiture (TEOAF).

October 3, 2026 – Abdul El-Sayed top staffer quits campaign—Shares disturbing truth about “Manufactured Man”

Jordan Domingue, a top staffer who worked two of ’s campaigns has quit the Democrat’s U.S. Senate race and is now talking. What he describes is a candidate who has faked his way through public life, right down to the “physician” title. This is a lengthy article, but every American needs to understand, from an insiders perspective, how dangerous this man would be if elected to the U.S. Senate.

In a post on X, Jordan Domingue outlines his decision to defect from Abdul’s campaign after working first on his failed gubernatorial campaign and again on his current Senate campaign.

“His foreign policy was driven by a desire to invoke what seemed like misplaced revenge.”

I protected Abdul for two years, I worked as his personal assistant/executive protection lead on his campaigns. I departed two jobs early from working abroad, moved to Michigan twice, and took paycuts averaging 50,000k.

I took his lovely wife to the hospital for visits when she was pregnant. His youngest daughter called me Mr. Jorjan. I painted him an original piece of artwork for his birthday.

I was happy to do and experience all of this. For his gubernatorial run he never mentioned foreign policy. During his senate run, his foreign policy was driven by a desire to invoke what seemed like misplaced revenge.

When I finally realized he didn’t actually care about civilians and peace, everything I had previously ignored or excused made it obvious to who he was and that I was on the wrong side.

Jordan Domingue’s profile on X reads more like that of a Republican: USMC Combat Veteran – International Security Professional – Bjj Brown Belt – Lockheed – Anti DSA – Democratic Field Organizer – Rugged Individual

After leaving Abul’s campaign, Jordan Domingue became the founder of Democrats for Mike Rogers.

Domingue uses the Dems for Mike Rogers X account to expose the truth about El-Sayed’s support for Hezbollah and Hamas.

I’ll share insight as the campaign staff member who has to this day, had the most 1:1 time with him. The first person to see him in the morning and the last to see him at night. Some average of 6-7 days a week, 12-14 hr days, 50,000+ miles, hundreds of harribo halal happy colas, and so much more.

Abdul loves this Shakespeare quote, and would say it almost daily when I worked for him. “Past is prolouge.”

Though he doesn’t adhere to it, I like the question it asks. Who are we when no one is looking? Of all the opposition research on Abdul, the mount Sinai lawsuit has been the most accurate from my experience at highlighting his character. As a 30 year old leapfrogging into a job he was inexperienced for and only got thru connections, the profile in lawsuit is revealing.

Former Mount Sinai Employees Accuse Leadership of Sexism and Ageism

Now I’m far from blameless, and will reflect for years on how I let myself be captured by loyalty and personality. When he acted liked an entitled mobster to elected officials in 2017-2018, I excused it as justified outsider earning their place. When he would say one thing to one group and another thing to a different group hours later, I considered it just the norm or “strategic ambiguity” as he calls it. When his management pushed multiple staff to tears and dangerous breaking points, in addition to them I considered his stress.

I think documents like the mount Sinai lawsuit tell the story of who he is, just as the Detroit news highlights who he wants you to forget. Past is absolutely prologue.

Reminds me of the apathy he has for animals. I don’t think he hates them, but just sees them as blobs that exist. He would say this on several occasions “I have a weird relationship with animals, I don’t know what they are thinking.” I don’t know if it’s the dog that bit him as a kid or the narcissistic need to know what everyone and everything thinks of him. Overall though he is certainly not interested in them. If not for his wife, he wouldn’t have cats.

Sure he’ll post the (ready to go out of fear) endorsement video of the woman who eventually led the health department and turned it around, but even in her endorsement language, it’s clear she had to teach him the importance of issue. Local news couldn’t have found a better picture to represent the “public health” professional for this story.

A lot of people are saying he might be gay, and I think that is inaccurate. This behavior is best explained by the guy who never grew past the high school locker room. His masculinity is a performance, and he has the maturity to match it.

One of the most disrespectful and immature forms this was shown throughout my two years with him, was his love of farting. He would openly do so without warning or embarrassment as his form of stand-up comedy. To this day for him, the act of farting is easily one of the funniest things a person can do.

On the trail he likes to say he has “10 years of public service experience.” I knew that was a lie while working for him, but I also was surprised he would say it. Not because it was a lie, but because 10 years of public service work experience at 41 was embarrassing to me.

Using this as a way to credential yourself for the U.S. Senate, as someone who didn’t work a real job until 31 was deeply out of touch. I started working in lawn care everyday after school and during long summer days when I was 8 or so years old.

A point that too many democrats don’t understand as they cling to death on “affordability”, and completely misunderstand the culture wars. People who work for a living. People whose labor is taxing on their body. People who have dirt or sometimes blood under their fingernails at the end of the 12hr day.

These people don’t trust the Democratic Party. They know that gas will still be high under the Democratic Party, because of climate initiatives instead of war. They know their economic situation won’t improve. They are red voters and will stay red voters because they know at-least things won’t get weird again.

To anyone in media interviewing him. Don’t let the appearance of toughness and his slightly antagonistic filibusters bully you. After he does his stunt just get to your questions. He will fold, and transition into the victim built on grievance, which is truly all he is. Other Arabs/Muslims understand this, and put him in check all the time.

What I find frustrating though is the man wants to be a U.S. Senator, made Israel – Palestine a core part of his primary, even based the conflict as the catalyst of his motivation to run. Yet wants to now not talk about it.

A manufactured man. They even have the shot of him pretending to be “getting his kit” ( kit = weapons, plates, etc) out of the trunk. It’s meant to invoke he has worked in law enforcement or in protection industry. That isn’t the only clip or article covering another issue, in which he is using to lie as if it was law enforcement or crime related. I have a strong suspicion that this ad only stays on YouTube and doesn’t come to this platform.

It’s also interesting that the very deputies/sheriff’s office of wayne county (he doesn’t use the county in order to pretend it’s broadly statewide) that endorsed him, did so because they worked with at same county. This is how it was described to me gleefully. It wasn’t a serious endorsement meeting. They are personal friends, and it didn’t even include policy, awareness of his defund comments, philosohy on crime, and was conducted without meeting with other primary candidates. Suspiciously this support was quiet, and due to fear of leftist anti cop backlash.

Now what is motivating this drop now. One of his biggest vulnerabilities has been crime and law enforcemenf given past comments. Additionally his half sister is charged with assault on law enforcement. However more pressing is a very recent murder in Detroit that likely will cause a big conversation on crime.

A young woman in her mid 30s was stabbed to death while on her work break from a downtown chipotle. Just minutes away from city hall. The attack was random and the suspect of course is believed to have been suffering from a mental health issue. I imagine he will have a long history of crime, with a long history of being released by progressive prosecutors. Her name was Jaquoya Wix, and she had a 15 year old daughter.

Currently Abdul and other leftist are having a moment where they have to hide or lie about their support of defunding the police, ending cash bail, emptying the jails or whatever mythical elitist critical theory nonsense they came up with to crime. The very policy positions that kill members of the working class.

The economic populism of the left doesn’t understand this. I often say that it doesn’t matter if the public transit is free, if it isn’t safe to use. Leftist will in one breath say a police free – low crime future is near, while also opposing public safety technology like flock type systems or gun shot detection systems. It is in coherent, deadly, and largely pushed by people who have little to no personal concerns of public safety.

If Abdul were an honest man, he would just say he was wrong. Say he is here to listen and learn. Instead we get this weird cosplaying chamelon. I hope
@MIPOAM
(Police Officers Association of Michigan), loudly highlight this chameleon candidate.

October 3, 2 026 -Obama Judge Tanya Chutkan blocks Trump Ed Dept from naming foreign donors who dumped billions into Harvard, Columbia, and other elite campuses

A federal judge in Washington, D.C., has temporarily blocked the Trump administration from publicly releasing the names of foreign donors and contract counterparties tied to some of America’s most prominent universities.

DC US District Judge Tanya Chutkan, the Obama appointee who presided over the federal election case against President Trump, issued a temporary restraining order barring the Department of Education from releasing a list of foreign donors tied to as much as $5.2 billion in gifts and contracts reported by the schools since 2020.

The Department of Education announced in February that universities disclosed more than $5.2 billion in reportable foreign gifts and contracts during 2025 alone, involving more than 8,300 transactions. The agency said universities have reported a cumulative $67.6 billion in foreign funding since Section 117 was added to federal law in 1986.

Section 117 of the Higher Education Act already requires schools that take federal money to report foreign gifts and contracts of $250,000 or more.

The department began collecting individual donor names in 2020, during President Trump’s first term, while telling the schools the names would stay confidential.

In June 2026, the department reversed course. It has already published 92 “counterparties of concern.” Friday was supposed to be the day the rest of the list went public.

According to the New York Post, Chutkan ruled that disclosure of the information could “constitute irreparable harm.” (Read more: The Gateway Pundit, 10/3/2026) (Archive)
