If someone was very vocal on the internet and found and is in possession of a pinhole camera that was drilled into his wall from outside, what would be his best course of action? Should they contact the local police and risk the entire event "disappearing". Immediately go public by giving the device to local news channels? Lawyer up? Asking for a friend.
The Department of Justice subpoenaed the personal phone records of House Judiciary Committee chairman Jim Jordan in 2022, seeking the Ohio Republican's phone data covering a more than two-year period. The subpoena, obtained by Fox News Digital, shows a federal prosecutor who later worked on special counsel Jack Smith's Jan. 6 investigation ordered Verizon to hand over the phone data, also known as toll records, reaching back to Jan. 1, 2020. The request appears to be the most expansive yet of the publicly known subpoenas targeting senators and current and former House members during Arctic Frost, the investigation that led to Smith bringing election-related charges against President Donald Trump.
In 2019, Feeding Our Future received $3.4 million in federal funding disbursed by the state. In the months after the Covid-19 pandemic began, however, the nonprofit rapidly increased its number of sponsored sites.

Following President Joe Biden's chaotic 2021 withdrawal from Afghanistan, a group of individuals sought to make an unannounced trip to the Taliban-run country to extract Americans who were stranded inside. One of those people involved in the unofficial mission was Rep. Cory Mills, an Army veteran and a then-congressional candidate.
En route to Afghanistan, Mills and the rest of the group he was with stopped in Tbilisi, Georgia. One night while awaiting to continue their rescue mission, Mills was caught with sex workers, a source with direct knowledge of the incident and two sources briefed on the matter told NOTUS. All three sources were granted anonymity to discuss the sensitive nature of the mission and to avoid retribution from Mills.
The U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify the swastika, an emblem of fascism and white supremacy inextricably linked to the murder of millions of Jews and that more than 400,000 U.S. troops died fighting against in World War II, as a hate symbol, according to a new policy that takes effect next month. Instead, the Coast Guard will classify the Nazi-era insignia as "potentially divisive" under its new guidelines. The new policy, set to take effect Dec. 15, similarly downgrades the definition of nooses and the Confederate flag, though display of the latter remains banned, according to documents reviewed by The Washington Post.

A freshman member of Congress dumped up to $130,000 worth of stock in providers that serve Medicaid beneficiaries in the week before voting for President Donald Trump's tax cut megabill that slashed over $1 trillion from the public health program, NBC News reported on Thursday. According to the report, Rep. Rob Bresnahan (R-PA), who has rapidly become one of the most frequent stock traders on Capitol Hill, "offloaded up to $130,000 worth of stock in Centene, Elevance Health, UnitedHealth and CVS Health on May 15, the periodic transaction reports he filed with the House clerk in June show. Taken together, those four companies oversee roughly half of all Medicaid managed care organizations, according to KFF, a health policy research organization."
Jimmy Kimmel's wife, Molly McNearney, has alienated herself from her Trump supporting relatives who send her "truly insane" replies to her emails, underscoring the depth of the divide and the futility of her efforts to sway their opinions.
