đŸ”” Abrego Garcia Returned

Good evening. It’s Friday, June 6.

MS-13 gangbanger Kilmar Abrego Garcia entered a Tennessee courtroom in chains hours after he was returned to US soil from El Salvador to face charges of trafficking thousands of illegal immigrants — his “full-time job” for years, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Friday.

“He was a smuggler of humans and children and women” — including members of the murderous prison gang he belonged to, the AG said at a press conference announcing the federal charges.

“One hundred trips, the grand jury found, of smuggling people throughout our country,” Bondi said.

 
 

The Trump administration has recovered a cell phone and hard drives used by Dr Anthony Fauci during the Covid pandemic, the president’s FBI chief has revealed.

Speaking Thursday on the Joe Rogan Experience, FBI director Kash Patel described the discovery as ‘a great breakthrough’ in the government’s ongoing investigation into the origins of the pandemic and the federal response.

Patel said investigators had long struggled to locate the devices Fauci used while serving as chief medical advisor to the White House — records that could shed light on key decisions surrounding lockdowns, mask mandates, and ties between Fauci’s former agency and the Wuhan laboratory central to the lab leak theory.

FBI Director Kash Patel told Joe Rogan on Friday that his house had been “swatted.”

“As director of the FBI I have a responsibility, I’m not just gonna bring a case because somebody hurt me
. Sh*t. My house just got swatted yesterday,” Kash said during an appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience podcast.

Swatting is the criminal practice of calling law enforcement, particularly Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) team, to someone’s house in order to harass or intimidate them.

The Supreme Court on Friday allowed members of the Trump administration’s Department of Government Efficiency to access Social Security Administration data.

The conservative-majority court, with its three liberal justices objecting, granted an emergency application filed by the Trump administration asking the justices to lift an injunction issued by a federal judge in Maryland.

The unsigned order said that members of the DOGE team assigned to the Social Security Administration should have “access to the agency records in question in order for those members to do their work.”

The State Department is discussing allocating $500 million for funding of the U.S. and Israel backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) that has been delivering food to Palestinians in Gaza in recent weeks, a U.S. official and a source with direct knowledge told Axios.

If the U.S. goes ahead with this massive funding, it will become the biggest donor to the foundation and will de facto “own” the operation.

While such a move will increase the U.S. credibility in asking other countries to donate money to the foundation, it would also draw the U.S. deeper into active involvement in the Gaza war and make it more responsible for the humanitarian situation in the enclave.

President Trump celebrated a “big win” Friday as a federal appeals court ruled that his administration can ban the Associated Press from entering the Oval Office and other restricted areas amid its ongoing legal spat with the outlet over the Gulf of America.

The White House can now restrict the wire service from the Oval Office, Mar-a-Lago and Air Force One, per a split 2-1 ruling by the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia.

“Big WIN over AP today,” Trump posted on Truth Social.

The Trump administration is preparing to cancel a large swath of federal funding for California, an effort that could begin as soon as Friday, according to multiple sources.

Agencies are being told to start identifying grants the administration can withhold from California. Sources said the administration is specifically considering a full termination of federal grant funding for the University of California and California State University systems.

“No taxpayer should be forced to fund the demise of our country,” White House spokesman Kush Desai said in a statement Friday afternoon, criticizing California for its energy, immigration and other policies. “No final decisions, however, on any potential future action by the Administration have been made, and any discussion suggesting otherwise should be considered pure speculation.”

Olympic gymnastics champion Simone Biles picked a fight with former collegiate swimmer Riley Gaines on Friday — over a boy who led his high school’s girls’ softball team to a state championship — but it was Gaines who stuck the landing.

Gaines raised the topic by sharing a photo of the championship team, noting that the Minnesota State High School League had turned off the comments feature on the post: “To be expected when your star player is a boy.”

Biles went on the attack then, delivering personal insults and saying, “You’re truly sick, all of this campaigning because you lost a race. Straight up sore loser. You should be uplifting the trans community and perhaps finding a way to make sports inclusive OR creating a new avenue where trans feel safe in sports. Maybe a transgender category IN ALL sports!! But instead 
 You bully them 
 One things for sure is no one in sports is safe with you around!!!!!”
