The Department of Justice (DOJ) has found another jihad-loving traitor embedded in our federal government. The Yemeni Houthis are a designated foreign terrorist organization, and the Department of Energy (DOE) employee was trying to provide material support and resources to that terrorist organization. The Trump administration finally caught him, and he is set to appear Friday in court.Based on his name, Ashton Hamed Ellaboudy, the DOE employee is — surprise, surprise — a Muslim. Amazing how we never seem to come upon devout Jews and Christians who are supporting devout Jewish or Christian terror groups. ... When is the last time — if ever — an Orthodox Jew or traditional Catholic or Evangelical pastor hijacked a plane, blew up a building, or threw Molotov cocktails while screaming about Jesus? ...... “As alleged, a U.S. government employee traveled overseas and used his specialized expertise in an attempt to aid the Houthis, a designated Foreign Terrorist Organization backed by Iran,” explained Assistant Attorney General for National Security John A. Eisenberg. “Additionally, Ellaboudy acquired materials for the construction of explosive material and drones capable of delivering these explosives. These allegations are so deeply disturbing that they almost defy imagination.”
Lindsay Clancy’s lawyer lost his fourth attempt to get the murder charges his accused killer mom client faces thrown out Thursday.Judge William Sullivan denied a motion by Clancy’s lawyer, Kevin Reddington, to have her found not guilty on all three first-degree murder charges after the high-profile case ended in a mistrial on Sept. 4.Reddington, 75, argued the motion in court Tuesday, questioning the evidence that the 36-year-old mom strangled her three young kids with exercise bands.“Where is the evidence that she did this?” he asked the court, before insisting, “This entire case is based on speculation.”But Sullivan ruled in a decision Thursday that prosecutors had presented sufficient evidence at trial of Clancy’s alleged crimes and therefore he couldn’t drop the charges.“There was evidence introduced, both physical and circumstantial, that would permit a rational trier of fact to find beyond a reasonable doubt the elements of the charge of murder,” the judge declared.
Gov. Kathy Hochul has directed New York Attorney General Letitia James to take over the criminal investigation into accusations that a former Cornell University student was gang raped by several frat brothers at the Ivy League school in 2024.Hochul appointed James special prosecutor of the case after she said she lost faith in Tompkins County District Attorney Matthew Van Houten’s investigation into the stomach-turning allegations when new reporting revealed discrepancies in what the DA said the survivor originally reported.“Newly released information continues to raise serious questions about the investigation conducted by the Cornell Police Department and the decision by the Tompkins County District Attorney not to prosecute an alleged sexual assault on Cornell University’s campus in October 2024,” the governor said in a statement Thursday evening.
What the so-called "Cornell 7" case needed was a serious investigator who would carefully sort through the conflicting claims, including claims made by the alleged victim which seem to contradict some of her own statements. What it got instead was Gov. Kathy Hochul and DA Letitia James, both of whom have clearly already made up their minds about the case.Gov. Hochul, in appointing James to investigate, made it clear that no investigation was really necessary because she already knows what happened.QuoteThe Cornell rape accuser was "failed" by people obligated to protect her, including police and the prosecutor, New York Governor Kathy Hochul said at a news conference on Friday.A visibly outraged Hochul blasted Cornell University Police, the Tompkins County District Attorney and the state's rape laws before introducing Attorney General Letitia James as special prosecutor in the controversial caseJames told a packed news conference at the governors office that this is now "an active criminal investigation." She pledged a full and fair investigation..."I am deeply disturbed by Cornell University's police and how they handled this," Hochul said. She said sending a "partial record" to the district attorney was a failure..."In what world would the police learn from the victim that she had been literally been gang raped" and that she believed "100%" she had been raped and not elevate those allegations, Hochul said.

Attorneys with the Justice Department filed a notice Wednesday with a federal judge in California citing a ruling that blocked a Glock ban in Connecticut.The DOJ filed suit in federal court to invalidate California’s “Unsafe Handgun Act” and Glock ban in July after Democratic California Attorney General Rob Bonta refused to discuss a possible settlement with Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon, arguing the measures violated the state’s residents’ Second Amendment rights. After a federal judge in Connecticut placed a similar ban on Glocks on ice, attorneys with the Civil Rights Division’s Second Amendment Section updated United States District Judge Monica Ramirez Almadani, a Biden appointee in the Central District of California, about the situation.
A Department of Justice investigation found that the University of California, Los Angeles School of Law has illegally discriminated based on race in admissions, the Daily Caller News Foundation first learned.The DOJ’s Civil Rights Division is alleging that UCLA Law discriminated against white and Asian students in granting admission to its 2023, 2024 and 2025 incoming classes. UCLA Law’s alleged discriminatory conduct violates Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and also the U.S. Supreme Court’s 2023 decision in Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard, which prohibited racial discrimination in admissions, according to the Department.“Like many of its peer institutions, UCLA Law School runs a two-tiered admissions system whose academic bar for acceptance shifts up or down depending on the color of your skin,” Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon told the DCNF in a statement. “The use of race as a thumb on the scale that helps or disadvantages any student is illegal.”...The Department’s probe found that UCLA Law’s application includes personal statements and essay prompts intended to extract information about race. Additionally, UCLA Law’s admissions staff told prospective applicants how to reveal their race in these sections of the application during certain race-based recruitment efforts, according to the DOJ.
