Another week is in the books. Here’s a sample of what was presented as Jim brought you another week of stories for you to ponder from a Christian perspective:
–A 16 year old suspect killed 3 children and a teacher before being fatally shot by a witness at an elementary school in Bend, Oregon.
–Last Friday, bomb threats were phoned in to two Brooklyn Jewish day schools just minutes apart according to the N.Y.P.D., however, they were later determined to be hoaxes.
–Staffers for Representative Ilhan Omar reportedly assisted her in changing her birth date on official records shortly after she began her first term in the U.S. House according to a New York Post report.
–Jeanine Pirro, U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, has confirmed that her office has opened an investigation into Omar’s finances, separate from the immigration related investigation currently being carried out by the Department of Justice and the Department of Homeland Security.
–One of the largest fraud scandals in Minnesota may involve the family of Ilhan Omar. Omar’s sister used the address of a woman who was business partners with several major convicts in the Feeding our Futures scandal, a Daily Wire investigation found.
–Multiple relatives of Ilhan Omar received grand jury subpoenas, part of the ongoing criminal investigation into her family’s history for evidence of possible fraud and false statements in their immigration paperwork.
–President Donald Trump’s administration is looking to build a case to strip Omar of her citizenship.
–The FBI is investigating mail containing unknown substances sent to the Senate and state election authorities this week, ahead of the mid-term elections.
–Illinois Democratic Representative Delia Ramirez raised a few eyebrows on Tuesday when she decided to intensify her anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement rhetoric. Calling it the “Reimagining Safety Act,” her office said that her latest legislation is intended to dismantle the Department of Homeland Security, abolish ICE, and create the Department of Community Safety.
–The U.S. Department of Homeland Security and U.S. Customs and Border Protection today announced preliminary fiscal year 2026 data showcasing a 95% drop in southwest border apprehensions compared to the Biden administration, alongside the lowest annual encounters in American history, as well as the first ever fiscal year with zero border patrol releases.
