A Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) contractor allegedly told an elderly disabled veteran homeowner last month that in order to receive assistance, he would need to remove his Trump signs from his yard, because the agency considers Trump supporters to be “domestic terrorists.”
House and Accountability Committee Chairman James Comer asserted on Tuesday that a whistleblower told his staff that the encounter between the FEMA contractor and the disabled veteran’s family happened in October following Hurricanes Helene and Milton.
“My staff just made contact with a new whistleblower who provided a credible account that a FEMA contractor visited the home of an elderly disabled veteran’s family around October 10,” Comer posted on X. “While there, he recommended that the family remove Trump campaign materials and signs from their house and yard, stating that his FEMA supervisors view Trump supporters as domestic terrorists.”
Comer added that the elderly homeowners were “so frightened by this and afraid that they would not recover their loss” that they complied and removed the signs. Regardless, FEMA did not return to their residence.

Let’s face it, our shameless media loves to act like they’re the champions of truth, but we all know they’re not. Quite the contrary. Chanel Rion’s explosive new video reveals something very different about the “White House Correspondents Association” (WHCA). According to Rion, this group has been running the show inside the White House like a criminal cartel, illegally infiltrating federal property and controlling who gets access to the President.
And Rion didn’t just call them out—she actually exposed how far they went to silence her. From vandalizing her workspace and cutting her Internet cables to shoving her into a corner during briefings, the WHCA made it clear they’ll do anything to protect their control and the narrative. And they don’t just harass people—they decide which outlets get into the Oval Office or travel with the President. Let that sink in: a nonprofit is dictating what happens on federal property and how the American people receive this filtered info.
But thankfully, Chanel isn’t backing down. She’s founded the National White House Correspondents Association to fight back and give independent media a real voice.
George Behizy:
Former White House Correspondent Chanel Rion released a video exposing how the “White House Correspondents Association” illegally infiltrated the White House and operates like a criminal cartel.
“WHCA members left nasty grounds on my desk, vandalized my workspace, blocked me in the briefing room, roped me off in the corner, cursed me on live TV, cut my Internet cables, taped up my wooden chair.”
“The WHCA dictates who sits inside the briefing room. They decide which outlets go into the Oval Office or travel with the President… So here we have a 501(c) controlling the activities on federal property.” -@ChanelRion
Rion founded a competing organization called the “National White House Correspondents Association” @NationalWHCA
and wants to use it to empower relevant journalists and independent media.
We can’t afford another four years of fake news reporters harassing and screaming at President Trump’s team in the name of truth-seeking. At this point, some 𝕏 personalities are far more relevant than the entire MSM. It’s time for change.
The truth is, fake news reporters screaming and yelling at President Trump’s team don’t serve the American people one bit. It’s time for change. Independent voices are the future, and Chanel Rion is leading the charge.
And this couldn’t come at a better time. President Trump just won his election, thanks in large part to independent and alternative media. No one understands how dangerous the US legacy media is better than Trump, so hopefully, his new administration will embrace this shift and give independent media a real, strong voice. That would be a total game-changer and put the legacy media that much closer to the grave—they’ve already got one foot in, as we speak.
The media’s collapse is real.

Below is my column in the New York Post on the effort of Alvin Bragg to suspend the criminal case against President-Elect Donald Trump for almost five years. It would be a terrible choice for the court and for the country.
Here is the column:
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg pushed Tuesday to create a new constitutional creature: the layaway president.
It was once common for stores to hold expensive items that you really wanted but could not make the payment.
So they were tagged and kept on the shelf until you were ready to redeem your item.
For Bragg, that leaves Donald Trump tagged until 2029.
In a filing before Manhattan Justice Juan Merchan, Bragg suggested that the court should stay the pending criminal case and defer any sentencing “until after the end of defendant’s upcoming presidential term.”
That would allow a city prosecutor to put a leash on a sitting president for four years.
Trump would govern by the grace of this local judge and district attorney.
In the meantime, pundits and politicians could portray the president as free on a type of work release program.
The suggestion is appalling to most of the people in the country, including the majority of voters who voted for Trump.
Vice President Kamala Harris and Democrats ran on this and other cases in the election.
The result was arguably the largest jury decision in history.
That being said, I do not believe that the mere election of a president negates jury verdicts on 34 criminal counts.
But ample reasons exist to overturn those verdicts or to dismiss this case.
For example, after the verdict, the Supreme Court rendered its immunity decision barring the use of certain evidence against a president.
Some of the evidence used in the Manhattan case likely fell within one of the protected categories.
The prosecutors not only elicited testimony from Trump aides in the White House but then doubled down on the significance of that evidence in their closing arguments.
Merchan could declare that the court cannot rule out the impact of such testimony on the final verdict.
Even if Merchan, as expected, does not dismiss the case on the basis for the immunity decision, the trial was rife with reversible error.
This was a raw exercise of lawfare and Merchan did little to ensure fairness toward the defendant.
Yet none of those errors can be likely addressed until Merchan reaches final decisions on the motion to dismiss as well as the sentencing question.
While that will mean that Trump could, upon possible sentencing, formally become a convicted felon, the matter can then be finally pried out of the hands of Merchan and taken to higher courts for review.
The worst possible option is the one suggested by Bragg, who would adopt the popular persona of Trump’s turnkey.
The President would be seen by many as governing on a type of conditional status from one of the most politically compromised prosecutors in the country.
For Bragg and other Trump opponents, that may be far more satisfying than a sentencing now given the unlikelihood of any jail component.
After the years and millions spent on the case, it would be the ultimate buzz kill to have Trump sentenced to some fine or other non-carceral penalty.
Many Democrats want to have Trump govern with an asterisk of a “President pending sentencing.”
Instead, Trump would govern with the clock ticking toward a sentencing date.
It is a dangerous precedent. Such pending sentences can have a coercive impact on a president in dealing with given officials, including a state governor who might be willing to pardon a president.
