We Must Not Become a Nation of Paid Informants

Why Invite a Measure of Suspicion Into Ordinary American Relationships?

America Must Not Become a Nation of Paid Informants.

America was built on trust. Take that away, and what do we have left?

Business is built on trust. Commerce is built on trust. Our relationships with family, friends, neighbors, employees, and business associates depend on trust.

It gives us confidence to shake hands, make investments, extend credit, and open doors for one another.

Without trust, there is no confidence. Without confidence, there is little motivation to do business. And without commerce, our economy cannot thrive. 

That is why President Donald Trump’s newly announced $25 million fraud whistleblower initiative troubles this writer so deeply.

The program offers rewards of up to $30,000 for information leading to qualifying fraud convictions or significant enforcement actions.

I fully support the president’s determination to eliminate fraud.

Those stealing taxpayer dollars must be investigated, prosecuted, and held accountable.

Elon Musk Promises Sweet, Sweet Revenge on Democrats Who Plan to 'Come After' Him

Back in the glory days of DOGE, Elon Musk used to joke that he was "Public Enemy no. 2" behind President Trump, the obvious primary target of the Left. Musk has, of course, left his gig with the Trump administration to focus on flying cars and rocket ships, but he apparently still remains a serious threat to Democrats.

And those Democrats are more than happy to let him know that they plan to go after him if they take back the majority in the House. The "Dem gavels," warns Politico, will be "coming for Elon Musk."

Politico wrote Tuesday that "Democrats have long eyed investigating the world’s richest man and the GOP’s top donor," and that "senior members are mulling how a range of panels could target Musk and a huge swath of his businesses."

Musk's biggest infractions are that he took a blowtorch to the Democrat slush fund known as USAID and is currently pouring hundreds of millions of dollars into Republican campaigns for the midterms, but it sounds like House Democrats are cooking up reasons to investigate him. 

For instance, some Democrat House members say they plan to look into reports that Musk recently throttled Starlink access to the Ukraine military.

Rep. Pramila Jayapal (WA-07) wants to know “What happens when one guy gets a giant contract from the government and then uses it to do something that shuts down communication in a war that has been extremely important to the United States to support Ukraine?”

TAIPEI, Taiwan—China is increasing espionage against Taiwan, while ramping up disinformation campaigns and cyberattacks that intend to interfere with next month’s local elections, according to Taiwan’s top intelligence agency.

In a report submitted to parliament this week, Taiwan’s National Security Bureau detailed the security threats facing Taiwan.

The submission came ahead of a legislative hearing on Oct. 22, at which the bureau’s chief, Tsai Ming-yen, is scheduled to appear before the legislature’s Foreign Affairs and National Defense Committee.

China has used intelligence operatives and online networks to infiltrate Taiwan’s military and government agencies, the bureau said.

Todd Blanche tells ‘Pod Force One’ Ilhan Omar will be given one right Trump was denied during indictments

Embattled Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) is allowed to speak freely about the federal immigration fraud investigation against her – a privilege President Trump was not afforded during his legal woes, Attorney General Todd Blanche noted on the latest episode of “Pod Force One.”

Blanche, who served as Trump’s personal lawyer when the president faced four criminal indictments during his 2024 campaign, couldn’t discuss the details of the ongoing case against Omar but drew a contrast between the Minnesota Democrat’s treatment and the various gag orders imposed on Trump.

 “To the extent that [Omar’s] commented on it, one of the things that she said is that we’re not going to keep her quiet, right? We’re not trying to keep her quiet,” Blanche told “Pod Force One” host Miranda Devine

“There’s no effort by the Department of Justice, unlike the last Department of Justice that worked very hard to keep President Trump quiet by getting gag orders and the like – that’s not what we’re doing,” the attorney general added.

Former Special Counsel Jack Smith asked judges to place gag orders on Trump in the election interference and classified documents cases.

Trump Warns Kansans: US Will Burn Like France If Democrats Win

VIDEO
Tuesday, 20 October 2026 06:29 AM EDT

President Donald Trump on Monday used violent unrest in France as an argument against Democrats in his battle to defend a Kansas Senate seat long held by Republicans but in danger of falling.

Trump's rally on behalf of Republican incumbent Sen. Roger Marshall was his latest foray into conservative states where Republican candidates are on defense due to voter frustrations over the Iran war and rising prices.

"I love you Kansas, but I'm here for a guy named Roger Marshall," Trump said.

Could France’s Crisis Happen in America?

The consequences of Europe’s failed assimilation

10/20/2026|Updated: 10/20/2026

This is a lightly edited transcript of an Oct. 19 segment of the “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words” podcast.

In the news right now, it’s rioting in France, rioting in Belgium, rioting in Italy, rioting in Albania, with other countries experiencing threats to riot. Who are these people? Well, they’re supposedly students that are angry that their classrooms or their education is not competitive or it’s subpar.

They’re socialists that are driving the unrest, but especially they’re immigrants. And let me just say at the outset, it’s very common among the Left in the West, in Europe, Canada, the United States to immediately bash anybody who criticizes immigration. But the Left is the party that created this problem because most people who are centrist or independents or on the right approve of immigration with a qualifier.

It has to be legal. It has to be diverse from all over the world, not just from Africa ...

Pollster Allocco to Newsmax: GOP Will Win Texas, Michigan

By Newsmax Wires | Monday, 19 October 2026 10:13 PM EDT


Polling expert Patrick Allocco told Newsmax on Monday that Republicans will win closely contested U.S. Senate races in Texas and Michigan next month despite polls showing Democrats with narrow leads in both states.

Allocco, founder of the Zoose Political Index, told "Finnerty" that his voter turnout model favors Republican Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton over Democrat James Talarico and former Rep. Mike Rogers over Democrat Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan.

"Our historic voter turnout model gives Republicans an 85% probability of holding Texas. Talarico may have raised a lot of money, but he needs substantial Republican crossover votes to win," he said.

The U.S. State Department on Oct. 19 added a risk label to its travel advisory for China, warning Americans living in or traveling to the country that they could be detained without credible evidence.

“The Department of State has determined that Americans are at serious risk of wrongful detention in China,” a spokesperson told The Epoch Times in a statement.

The newly included “D” label in the State Department’s travel advisory for mainland China came as Beijing continues to hold two U.S. citizens who Washington said were detained on wrongful charges.

President Donald Trump announced a new Department of Agriculture program offering $8 billion to farmers during harvest season, as rising diesel costs strain operations nationwide.

“And when the Republicans win, we will pass even more funding for our farmers,” Trump told a standing-room-only crowd of thousands during a rally in the Heartland Credit Union Arena in Park City, just north of Wichita, Kansas.

The Harvest Fuel Relief program will use a formula to determine losses and offset increased diesel costs, with calculations similar to those used in the established Farmer Bridge Assistance program, according to a statement from the Department of Agriculture.
