There are so many stories making up the mosaic of national/international news that we can’t cover them all every week. The biggest stories now seem to be: Israel and Iran, the Trump presidency (lawfare and judges), immigration (migrants and illegals), wars, weaponization of government (the deep state) against Trump and conservatives, our nation’s debt, massive inflation, climate change controversy and related expenses of government, industry attempting to address these issues, the Chinese threat, national security, abortion, taxpayer cuts, Ukraine peace, and hatred and violence against Christians. Here are just a few:

Trump Signs Order Labeling Antifa ‘Domestic Terrorist Organization’
President Trump on Monday signed an order designating the anti-fascist movement antifa as a domestic terrorist organization, following through on a pledge in the wake of the killing of Charlie Kirk to crack down on left-wing groups.
The order designates antifa as a “domestic terrorist organization.” It gives government agencies a broad mandate to investigate any operations conducted by antifa or for any operation where an antifa member “provided material support.”
The order alleges antifa uses “illegal means to organize and execute a campaign of violence and terrorism nationwide” to accomplish its goals of overthrowing the government and law enforcement.

Trump Blasts United Nations For ‘Funding An Assault On Western Countries And Borders’ With Mass Migration
The United Nations is “funding an assault on Western countries,” President Donald Trump said to the U.N. annual convention on Tuesday. In his address, the president accused weak western nations of destroying their own countries through mass migration with the U.N. playing a central role.
“The number one political issue of our time [is] the crisis of uncontrolled migration,” he exclaimed. “Your countries are being ruined,” he added. “The United Nations is funding an assault on western countries and their borders. The president then laid out the material support that the United Nations gave to these invading illegals who flooded the border by the hundreds of millions all across the world.
“In 2024, the U.N. budgeted $372 million in cash assistance to support… migrants journeying into the United States,” the president said from the podium. “The U.N. also provided food, shelter, transportation, and debit cards to illegal aliens on the way to infiltrate our southern border.”
“What took place is totally unacceptable. The U.N. is supposed to stop invasions, not create them and not finance them,” he continued. “In the United States we reject the idea that mass numbers of people from foreign lands can be permitted to travel halfway around the world, trample our borders, violate our sovereignty, cause unmitigated crime, and deplete our social safety nets. We have reasserted that America belongs to the American people. And I encourage all countries to take their own stance in defense of their citizens, as well.”

Turning Point USA Holds First College Event Since Charlie Kirk’s Death
Nonprofit organization Turning Point USA held a campus event at the University of Minnesota on Sept. 22, its first since the assassination of founder Charlie Kirk.
The event at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities had been scheduled before Kirk’s death on Sept. 10. It proceeded as planned just a day after his memorial service was held at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. Conservative commentator Michael Knowles, who hosted the event, left an empty chair on stage for Kirk, draped with a white T-shirt featuring the word “freedom” and a white cap with “47” written on it.
“This event was originally supposed to be a conversation between me and Charlie,” he told the crowd. “Now, it will be a conversation about Charlie. It will be a conversation about his life, and what his assassination means for our country.” Chris Gaffrey, college enterprise director at Turning Point USA, said on X that the event opened with “the entire crowd standing together, hand over heart, singing God Bless the USA.” He also shared a clip capturing the scene at the university.
(Editor’s Note: The University of Minnesota Northrop Auditorium event drew 2,000; with people lining up one-and-one-half hours before it began. The “American Comeback” tour’s next scheduled stop was Sept. 24 at Virginia Tech featuring journalist Megyn Kelly and Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin. The Sept. 30 campus tour is at Utah State University featuring podcaster Alex Clark, Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah), Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ), former Congressman Jason Chaffetz, and Utah Gov. Spencer Cox.)

FBI: Dallas Sniper Who Attacked ICE Facility Had ‘Anti-ICE’ ‘Ideological Motive’
FBI Director Kash Patel reported that the man who shot at an ICE facility in Dallas on Wednesday morning had an “idealogical {sic} motive.” At least one of the bullets loaded in a clip had “Anti-ICE” marked on the shell casing.
Director Patel said the man fired several rounds at the Dallas Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility Wednesday morning. Patel said the man killed one person and wounded several others (none of them ICE agents). He then took his own life as agents approached his rooftop location.

Pregnant Liberals Post TikToks Of Themselves Popping Tylenol Pills To Mock RFK Jr. And Trump’s Warning About The Drug…Then This Old Tweet From Tylenol Emerges
Pregnant leftists took to TikTok taking Tylenol capsules on video to mock Trump and RFK Jr’s warning about the drug acetaminophen use during pregnancy and adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes, including later diagnosis for ADHD and autism.
Then, on Wednesday, a 2017 tweet from Tylenol’s X account started going viral saying exactly what Team Trump was warning about. “We actually don’t recommend using any of our products while pregnant,” the tweet reads.
(Editor’s Note: See Sept. 22 news brief written for Gateway Pundit by Cristina Laila. It was later reported that one of the ladies overdosed on Tylenol, causing her liver to fail–killing herself and baby because of her hatred for President Trump and his cabinet. Now her husband is without a wife and child.)

Trump Plans Mass Firings Of Bureaucrats If Dems Shut Down Government
The White House has already instructed federal agencies to plan for mass firings if Democrats shut down the government. The shutdown deadline is September 30.
The Republicans offered an easy-peasy clean continuing resolution, which essentially says the government will carry on spending like it has for the next seven weeks. For his part, President Trump was so disgusted with the Democrat Party’s demands he canceled a meeting with top Democrats. He then detailed their demands:…free healthcare for Illegal Aliens (A monumental cost!), force Taxpayers to fund Transgender surgery for minors, have dead people on the Medicaid roles, allow Illegal Alien Criminals to steal Billions of Dollars in American Taxpayer Benefits, try to force our Country to again open our Borders to Criminals and to the World, allow men to play in women’s sports, and essentially create Transgender operations for everybody.

Inspired by Erika Kirk, Tim Allen Makes Powerful Statement About Forgiving The Man Who Killed His Father
When Erika Kirk spoke the words on the man who killed her husband: “That man… that young man… I forgive him.” That moment deeply affected me. I have struggled for over 60 years to forgive the man who killed my Dad. I will say those words now as I type: “ I forgive the man who killed my father.”
Former “Home Improvement” star Tim Allen, who is now on “Shifting Gears.” Allen said it moved him to do something that he hasn’t been able to do for over 60 years. Allen’s father was killed in a car accident by a drunk driver when Allen was 11 years old.
Allen was touched by Erika Kirk’s actions. Then, more were inspired by Allen’s post on X, with many speaking of their efforts to forgive others for what they may have done that harmed their lives. His post has now had millions of views.

FBI ‘Secretly Deployed’ 274 Plainclothes Agents To U.S. Capitol On January 6
A report says the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) deployed 274 plainclothes agents to the U.S. Capitol when the January 6, 2021, protests erupted. “Scores of FBI agents and personnel – many from the bureau’s premier Washington field office (WFO) – sent anonymous complaints to the after-action team detailing how agents were sent into an unsafe scenario without proper safety equipment or the ability to identify themselves readily as armed officers to other police agencies, the report obtained by Just the News shows,” the article continued:
The most persistent complaint was that the bureau during the James Comey and Chris Wray era had become infected with political biases and liberal ideology that treated the protesters from the summer 2020 Black Lives Matter riots far differently than those arrested in the aftermath of the Jan. 6 episode.
“The FBI should make clear to its personnel and the public that, despite its obvious political bias, it ultimately still takes its mission and priorities seriously,” one employee wrote in a stinging review. “It should equally and aggressively investigate criminal activity regardless of the offenders’ perceived race, political affiliations, or motivations; and it should equally and aggressively protect all Americans regardless of perceived race, political affiliations, or motivations.”

DA Alvin Bragg Lets Violent Pro-Abortion Activist Walk Free After Brutal, On-Camera Assault On Pro-Life Woman
In yet another glaring example of the radical left’s two-tiered justice system, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has dismissed all charges against Brianna J. Rivers, the unhinged pro-abortion extremist who viciously assaulted pro-life activist Savannah Craven Antao on camera back in April. What started as a felony assault charge was downgraded to a mere misdemeanor and then quietly dropped entirely, leaving victims of leftist violence without recourse while criminals roam free.
Savannah Craven Antao, a courageous advocate for the unborn with the pro-life organization Live Action, was out in the streets of Harlem on April 3, 2025, conducting peaceful street interviews for her eye-opening video project titled “What Does Planned Parenthood Do? Perception vs. Reality?” Her mission was simple: to expose the grim truths about America’s largest abortion mill and spark honest conversations about the sanctity of life.
Things escalated when Rivers shockingly declared that we should “kill all the kids in foster care.” Without warning, Rivers launched a savage attack, punching Savannah in the face twice and gearing up for more. Henry (Savannah’s husband) heroically stepped in, shielding his wife from further harm and calling 911. Savannah was rushed to the hospital, where she received stitches.
Despite indisputable video evidence, hospital records, over $3,000 in medical bills, and Rivers’ ongoing public mockery of her crime, Bragg’s office simply let the case die. Worse still, Savannah revealed that the prosecutor assigned to her case wasn’t even a licensed attorney—just a law school graduate operating under a student practice rule meant for minor offenses, not violent felonies. Bragg’s team failed to communicate with Savannah or her lawyers, ignored their calls, and ultimately allowed the case to be dismissed on “speedy trial” grounds.
