The News Trump Buried

A bank dropped ICE. A judge saved thousands of votes. And that’s not even all of it.

Donald Trump spent two years building his World Cup moment. Fighter jets overhead. Face on the big screen. FIFA even moved its offices into Trump Tower. Then he walked onto the field for the trophy ceremony, and the stadium—Spain and Argentina fans alike—met him with a wall of boos.

All that money, and the boos still won. While he soaked that in on the world stage, back home the losses piled up.

BIG TECH IS LOSING TO TOWNS OVER WATER

Big Tech is losing data center fights in the places you’d least expect—and losing them fast.

In Patterson, California, the ground is literally sinking from years of overpumping—people there already ration water. So when word spread that a developer wanted a data center that would guzzle millions of gallons a day, Patterson didn’t wait. The City Council voted 4-0 Thursday for an emergency moratorium—before a single application was even filed.

“We put you guys as a priority,” Councilmember Carlos Roque told the packed room. “We listen and we understand your concerns.”

Patterson wasn’t alone. That same week, St. Charles County, Missouri, froze new data centers as well. Walton County, Florida, banned them for good. AI can’t run without water. These towns won’t give it up.

TRUMP’S OWN FRAUD HUNTER JUST BLEW UP HIS LIE

Trump spent 26 minutes at the White House Thursday night lying about foreign powers stealing our elections. ABC, CNN, and NBC wouldn’t even air it live. Minutes later, his own hand-picked fraud detector torched the whole thing.

John Solomon leads the regime’s task force assigned to dig up “proof” of election fraud. Asked whether any votes were changed in 2020, he admitted: “The intelligence community has zero evidence that a foreign power flipped the vote in 2020, ‘22 or ‘24.” Zero foreign fraud—direct from the man Trump put in charge of finding it.

Pressed on whether former President Joe Biden really won, Solomon stammered, “I’m still researching”—and staffers hustled him out of the room. For the record: Biden won. That’s not in question anywhere but in Trump’s head.

Trump’s voter suppression scheme is all built on this one big lie. Proof of citizenship, ID at the ballot box, mail-in voting gutted—all to stop a “crime” the regime’s own investigator just admitted he can’t find. Because it didn’t happen.

KANSAS JUDGE SAVED TENS OF THOUSANDS OF VOTES

Kansas Republicans wrote a law built to throw out valid ballots. Gov. Laura Kelly vetoed it, warning it would disenfranchise voters. But the GOP overrode her and passed it anyway.

This week, a judge threw it all out.

The law was cruel and simple: any mail ballot arriving after 7 pm on Election Day got tossed. Gone—even if the postmark proved you sent it on time, or if the post office was the one running late. On Thursday, Douglas County Judge Carl Folsom III blocked it statewide.

In November 2024 alone, this law would’ve thrown out more than 2,100 real ballots. In one March election under the rule, one in 30 mail votes got rejected.

And the hypocrisy is immeasurable. The Republican now fighting to kill the three-day grace period, AG Kris Kobach, is the same person who championed it back in 2017.

The state’s primary is only weeks away. And for now, every ballot still counts.

THEY MADE A BANK WALK AWAY FROM ICE

For anyone who doubts the power of resistance, share this story with them.

Citizens Bank—one of the biggest banks in America—quietly financed the two largest companies running ICE detention camps for years: GEO Group and CoreCivic. According to the coalition that fought to stop it, Citizens helped the two companies access roughly $2.5 billion—even as most other major banks had already headed for the exits.

People responded by organizing and pushing back hard. The De-ICE Citizens Bank Coalition—churches, synagogues, unions, and everyday customers—started pulling their money out. The Greater Boston Interfaith Organization yanked millions. Montclair and Jersey City, New Jersey, both voted to withdraw their funds.

On Friday, Citizens Bank caved and announced it’s cutting ties with both companies. The bank swears politics had nothing to do with it—just “changed commercial circumstances.”

The De-ICE coalition called it what it is: a victory for people who refused to let a bank finance human suffering. Months of pressure, millions pulled, then Citizens suddenly walks.

Call it what you want. It worked.

They didn’t outspend anyone—they out-organized them. Enough people closed their accounts at once that one of the biggest banks in America gave in.

That’s the one thing the regime can’t buy its way out of: people who won’t quit. It’s what this whole operation runs on. Readers—not a corporation, not a billionaire—fund every investigation we run and every fight we pick. That support has turned into more than 794,000 letters to Congress since November 2024, and reporting that reaches millions every day.
