While Ohio taxpayers are being told to accept daycare fraud as merely “the cost of doing business,” a stunning new report has surfaced that raises serious questions about who has been operating inside the state’s taxpayer-funded welfare ecosystem and how far those connections now extend onto the global stage.

Activists Linked to George Soros Are Training Jurors So They Can Help ‘Marginalized’ Defendants

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/01/activists-linked-george-soros-training-jurors-can-help/

A judicial activist group linked to George Soros’ activist groups is coming under scrutiny for what they call “juror teach-in” sessions to protect “those with marginalized identities.”

Free DC, a Washington-based group which describes itself as a “fiscally sponsored special project” of a progressive nonprofit called Community Change and Community Change Action, will be hosting a Jan. 12 training session which, from its description, sounds suspiciously close to a primer on jury nullification.

The session is being co-hosted with another progressive group, Harriet’s Wildest Dreams.

“We’ll discuss what it really means to serve on a jury and how we can use that role to protect our people especially those with marginalized identities who are disproportionately targeted by the criminal legal system,” the event description reads.

“Jury duty is not just a civic responsibility; it’s a powerful tool for ensuring fairness and justice. As community members, our participation in juries is vital to safeguarding the rights of those who are most vulnerable to systemic biases.

“By serving on a jury, we can influence outcomes and help create a more equitable legal process.”

As of Thursday, the session is “open to everyone,” although that may change given the attention the event has suddenly received.

As the New York Post reported, Free DC’s funding can be traced back to several large progressive philanthropies, including Soros’ Open Society Foundations.

The OSF’s $20 million donation to Free DC initially came under scrutiny in August when the group took an active role in fighting President Donald Trump’s deployment of National Guard troops in the nation’s capital after several high-profile violent crimes. Continue…

WATCH: Leftist German Streamer Kunshikitty Sets Out To Prove That New Year’s Eve in Cologne Is Perfectly Safe for a Single Woman – Gets Repeatedly Attacked on Camera!

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/01/watch-leftist-german-streamer-kunshikitty-sets-prove-that/

No surprises, except for the adventurous young woman who was proven wrong in a painful way.

Almost everyone recognizes, by now, how the suicidal policies of unchecked mass migration have frayed the European nations’ social fabric, and submitted women and children to a torrent of crime and abuse that only in the future will people have the real, catastrophic dimension.

But still, many young women let their leftism blind them to the obvious realities of life.

Case in point, a German Twitch streamer called Kunshikitty wanted to demonstrate, in Cologne, that women can safely walk through the cheerful ‘groups of men’ during the New Year’s Eve ‘celebrations.’

The young woman, who has over 220,000 followers, was hit by what some described as ‘Knallerbsen bang snaps’ during her broadcast on December 31.

The clips gained millions of views with calls for deportations, as normal people were quick to make the obvious link of the incident to the reality of the rampant migrant violence, referencing Cologne’s 2015 assaults. Continue…

SHOCK VIDEO: Jack Smith Says Trump Did NOT Have First Amendment Right to Say 2020 Election Was Fraudulent in Newly-Released Deposition

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/01/shock-jack-smith-says-trump-did-not-have/

House Judiciary Republicans on Wednesday released a transcript and video of Jack Smith’s closed-door testimony to Congress.

Former Special Counsel Jack Smith appeared on Capitol Hill last month for a closed-door testimony before the House Judiciary Committee.

Republican lawmakers called Jack Smith to testify over his “partisan and politically motivated” Trump prosecutions.

Jack Smith was appointed as Special Counsel in 2022 by Joe Biden’s Attorney General Merrick Garland to investigate Trump just one day after Trump announced his 2024 bid for the White House.

In June 2023, Jack Smith indicted Trump on 37 federal counts in Miami for lawfully storing presidential records at his Mar-a-Lago estate, which was protected by Secret Service agents.

In a separate case in Washington DC, Jack Smith indicted Trump on four counts: Conspiracy to defraud the United States, conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding, obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding, and conspiracy against rights.

Jack Smith defended his inquisition in an opening statement to congressional investigators. Continue…

LAWLESS KINGDOM: Intruder Breaks TWICE Into the Grounds of Prince William’s London Residence

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/01/lawless-kingdom-intruder-breaks-twice-grounds-prince-williams/

The future King’s London residence has been invaded twice.

The law-and-order situation in the United Kingdom keeps deteriorating, as two-tier policing and mistaken priorities leave the British people hostage to the criminal elements in the society.

And not even the protected Royal Family is immune to the consequences of this security breakdown.

In the days leading up to Christmas, an intruder was able to twice penetrate the grounds of the official London residence of Prince William and Princess Kate.

As we can see in a previous TGP report from last June (at the end of this post) this is by no means the first time this happens.

The Telegraph reported: Continue…

"Locked & Loaded": Trump Says US Will Intervene If Iran Kills Protesters

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/trump-says-us-will-intervene-if-iran-kills-protesters-adding-fuel-irans-protest-fire

President Trump has just become the first sitting US President to explicitly warn that the United States stands ready to directly intervene in Iran if Tehran authorities begin killing peaceful protesters, as he wrote Friday that Washington "will come to their rescue".

In a brief early morning post on Truth Social, he wrote: "We are locked and loaded and ready to go." He gave no further details what course of action this might take, but it's a pretty clear and provocative message to Iranian leadership - or comes very close to saying something akin to the 'Ayatollah must go'.

Trump's full message is as follows: "If Iran shots [sic] and violently kills peaceful protesters, which is their custom, the United States of America will come to their rescue."

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei did respond in very short fashion, with a senior aide from his office saying Trump should "be careful" if he intervened, warning of unleashing more chaos in the region. Continue…

Fighting Breaks Out On Saudi Border In Oil-Rich Yemen Region

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/fighting-breaks-out-saudi-border-oil-rich-yemen-region

Yemen continues to be a major headache and security risk for the Saudis, and rare fighting has emerged just on the kingdom's border. Looming over the crisis is the deepening rift between Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) members Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.

Saudi warplanes carried out fresh airstrikes on sites near the Saudi-Yemeni border in Yemen's Hadramout province on Friday, as clashes erupted between forces loyal to the Saudi-backed provincial governor and fighters affiliated with the separatist Southern Transitional Council (STC).

The STC has for years called the secession of a proposed federal "State of South Arabia" from the rest of the country, and is backed in this current conflict by the UAE. Continue…

RFK Jr. Stops Requiring Doctors To Report Patient Vaccine Status

https://www.zerohedge.com/medical/rfk-jr-stops-requiring-doctors-report-patient-vaccine-status

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has stopped mandating health care providers report the immunization status of patients.

Kennedy decided to stop requiring doctors to list vaccinations children have received, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) said in a Dec. 30, 2025, letter to state health officials.

Doctors participating in Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program were previously required to report how many children received specific vaccines by their second birthday, and other shots by the time they turn 14 years old.

Kennedy also eliminated a requirement that doctors report the immunization status of pregnant women, according to the notice.

“Government bureaucracies should never coerce doctors or families into accepting vaccines or penalize physicians for respecting patient choice. That practice ends now,” Kennedy, head of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), of which CMS is a part, said in a post on X. “Under the Trump administration, HHS will protect informed consent, respect religious liberty, and uphold medical freedom.”

Federal law requires that doctors report certain measures while caring for the approximately 78 million people on Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, and that states convey that data to CMS. The reporting was voluntary when first implemented. It began being mandated in fiscal year 2024.

CMS did not respond to a request for comment. In the letter, the agency noted that Kennedy has authority under the law to make changes to the required measures “to improve and strengthen” the reporting requirements, and that pursuant to that authority, CMS was removing the immunization reporting requirements.

Russia responds to ‘terrorist attacks’ by Kiev – MOD

https://www.rt.com/russia/630341-strike-ukraine-drone-energy/

The Russian military has conducted one large-scale and six group strikes against drone production facilities, energy infrastructure, and other military-related targets inside Ukraine over the past week, the Defense Ministry in Moscow has said.

The bombardment was in response to “Ukraine’s terrorist attacks on civilian targets in Russia,” the ministry said in a statement on Friday.

High-precision munitions, including Kinzhal hypersonic missiles, were utilized during the strikes, it added.

The targets of the Russian attacks included production facilities for Ukrainian long-range drones and the sites from where they are being launched, the statement read.

Other enterprises of the country’s defense industrial complex and the energy infrastructure that powers them were hit as well, it said.

The attacks were also aimed at transportation and port infrastructure used by Kiev’s forces, arms and fuel depots, and temporary deployment sites of Ukrainian military units and foreign mercenaries, according to the ministry. Continue…

Meta (Facebook) says you asked for this (did you?)

https://breaking-news.ca/meta-facebook-says-you-asked-for-this-did-you/

Did you know that Meta has been walking around Ottawa saying that you and countless other Canadian parents are begging for your elected Member of Parliament to pass digital “safety laws”?

Proposed laws that would mandate you to verify your identity every time you want to download an app to your smartphone or your child’s iPad?

Meta’s federal government lobbyists and their very own Policy Director for Canada, Rachel Curran, have done just that.

This foreign-owned, American big tech corporation has been waving around a statistic claiming that “83% of parents” support mandatory age verification at the App Store level.

But as I dug into the details, I uncovered the truth they aren’t telling you:

1. There is no way to check if Meta polled actual “Canadians”. The fine print shows they didn’t survey a broad group of citizens. Instead, they surveyed 2,533 “Canadian residents” on an online panel back in October. There is no clear definition of who Meta considered to be a “Canadian resident”.

1. Meta paid for the survey themselves. They were directly funding the result they wanted to see so they could point to you as the person who wanted legislation to implement digital age-verification checks.

Without having access to review the data and questions they asked for yourself, it is easy to assume Meta could have just bought the answer they wanted so they could use us as an excuse to rewrite our laws.

So this leads me to ask you: Did you ask Facebook to parent your children?

Because I know they certainly didn’t ask me. And I have a sneaking feeling Meta did not ask you either.

Sign the petition and let Rachel Curran and her bosses at Meta you to stop using you as an excuse to push for digital surveillance upon you, your kids, and your friends.

Meta is betting you haven’t notice.

They are betting big time that if they say “parents want this” enough times, your elected Member of Parliament will be suckered into believing them over you.

With your help, let’s boldly set the record straight.

P.S. Rachel Curran and her Meta colleagues are walking the halls of power right now saying, “You want this.” Let’s flood her inbox with the truth: You never asked for mass surveillance.

Pilots accuse labour minister of eroding right to strike with bans

https://www.westernstandard.news/news/pilots-accuse-labour-minister-of-eroding-right-to-strike-with-bans/70025

Canada’s largest pilots’ union is accusing Labour Minister Patty Hajdu of undermining constitutional rights by routinely shutting down lawful strikes, warning that federal intervention has become so common it is warping the collective bargaining system.

Blacklock's Reporter says in a submission to the Commons human resources committee, the Air Line Pilots Association International said the government’s growing reliance on strike bans has changed employer behaviour and weakened negotiations across federally regulated sectors.

“Government intervention to end labour disputes in the federal sector has now become commonplace,” wrote the association, which represents 13,500 Canadian pilots.

“As a result, employers now expect the government to intervene and are no longer interested in bargaining in good faith.”

The committee is examining cabinet’s unprecedented use of Section 107 of the Canada Labour Code, a provision that allows the labour minister to take any steps deemed necessary to “maintain or secure industrial peace.” Hajdu and her predecessor invoked the clause eight times over a 15-month period to end strikes and impose binding arbitration.
