Armed Citizen Who Engaged In-N-Out Shooter Is a Caregiver, Healthcare Worker

AWR Hawkins3 Aug 2026

The armed citizen who pulled a pistol and engaged the In-N-Out shooter Saturday in Twin Falls, Idaho is a healthcare worker who serves as the caregiver for his brother, according to the Idaho Stateman.

The citizen, 35-year-old Jordan Salinas, arrived at the In-N-Out after a morning of horseback riding with his girlfriend. Upon pulling up to the restaurant he saw people fleeing and thought, at first, it might be a kitchen fire. Then he heard gunshots ringing out.

Salinas had an FN Five-Seven pistol with a suppressor in a chest rig and he drew the gun and engaged the shooter.

He described his response as “automatic” and “mechanical,” noting that he has trained and worked at responding to such a scenario for years.

The New York Post noted that Salinas approached the moment with a mental framework of “Observe, Orient, Decide, Act.”

Salinas told the Statesman that the shooter “did not like it when bullets started firing both ways.”

Breitbart News reported that there were two good guys with guns who engaged the shooter, Salinas and an off-duty police officer who has not yet been identified.

KARK quoted Twin Falls Police Chief Matthew Hicks saying, “We believe their actions helped drive the suspect away from the scene, preventing further casualties. We want to take a moment and commend the actions of the off-duty officer and the citizen, and their heroic action to stop this incident.”

Fully pardoned Fauci took the Fifth to protect someone else. 1/3

JUL 30, 2026

On June 3, 2022, the FBI arrested Peter Navarro, a former Trump White House trade adviser and economic official, at Washington’s Reagan National Airport forthe high and hideous crime of ignoring a congressional subpoena from the House January 6 Committee. The FBI handcuffed him. A grand jury indicted him and a court convicted him. Trump later pardoned him.

On October 12, 2011, the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee subpoena-ed Attorney General Eric Holder for JusticeDepartment documents and communications related to Operation Fast and Furious, which gave rifles to Mexican drug cartels.

Holder ignored the subpoena. The House voted 255–67 to hold him in criminal contempt of Congress—the first time a sitting Cabinet member faced such a charge. But President Obama asserted executive privilege over the remaining documents and the Justice Department declined to prosecute Holder.

So the rule of law is Democrat presidents can go after political enemies, while protecting lawbreaking Cabinet officials from facing justice. Republican presidents face dealing with passive-aggressive Republican Congresses whose members would rather be in the minority than actually do the work of a majority Congress.

Which leads to Wednesday’s Senate committee hearing—chaired by Senator Rand Paul—into the trillion-dollar covid catastrophe caused by Tony Fauci, whom Reagan brought to Washington to find a cure for AIDS. Over the course of 40 years, Fauci built a bureaucratic empire and ingratiated himself among the politicians, celebrities and press gaggles of DC. Barbra Streisand had him on speed dial. (People. People who need fascists are the ugliest people in the world.)

Fauci never did find that cure—despite torturing beagles such as having Tunisian sandflies bite them and cutting off their vocal cords, a debarking, a cordectomy. But he retired to a pension larger than a presidential salary and pocketed all sorts of deals including a $5 million book advance for a book that sold less than 100,000 copies.

Rand Paul is no dummy. He knew that Fauci is a liar who would never talk under oatheven with the prosecutorial immunity of a presidential pardon—regardless of who actually signed it.

On Saturday, the senator released 1,100 pages of a diary—an Internet log of Fauci’s activities that was spread over 11 servers.The entries were the equivalent of a transgender mass murderer’s manifesto.

On Tuesday, Senator Josh Hawley got to tell Fauci to his face what conservatives think of him,“Yeah, well, silence is admission. And here’s the real thing—at the end of the day, it wasn’t just about the money, really, was it?

“It was really about a power trip. I mean, through all of this, you wanted to be the most famous scientist in the world. You were so focused on getting every award and every drop of cash that you could, all because you wanted to be on TV.

“You wanted to be the sun god of science. You wanted to be the guy who was in charge of it all. You wanted to lambaste Trump. You wanted to make sure that nobody else stole your spotlight. YOU wanted to be the GUY.

“You had time to sit for InStyle magazine. Here’s what you were doing with your time. You could sit for InStyle magazine, but you can’t answer questions for the American people!You could sit for InStyle magazine, but you’re here taking the Fifth!

“You could sit for InStyle magazine and get a MILLION BUCKS in cash awards, but now the cat’s got your tongue. I bet he does!

“I’ll tell you what, here’s my conclusion from all of this.This was really all about you the whole time. Somewhere along the way, you lost your way. You may have been a good public servant at one time, I don’t know.

“What I can tell you from reading your emails now, from looking atwhat you did, how you used your employees, somewhere along the line, it became all about you. You became a narcissist and a megalomaniac and a liar, and you’ve lied to the American people, and you’ve lied to this body! And you’ve disgraced your profession by doing it.”

“You called yourself the most famous scientist in the world—you’ve done more to harm science than anybody in my lifetime. And I hope you’ll go home and write that in your diary.”

Hawley spoke truth to power like Lindsey Graham defending Kavanaugh, who attended the senator’s funeral.

Liz Wheeler gave the best summary of the situation:

We were… right.

• Social distancing was a hoax

• Masks were a joke

• Lockdowns were worthless

• mRNA jabs were dangerous

• Case fatality rate was low

• Ivermectin worked

• Hydroxychloroquine also worked

• Remdesivir was a killer

• COVID came from the Wuhan lab

• Fauci funded it

Fauci lied about it all.

Fauci lied to profit himself.

Fauci abused YOU to bolster his ego, money, and power.

Put the despicable villain in prison.

Congratulations, conservatives. You were right. It doesn’t get your grandmother back so you can give her a decent funeral. It doesn’t bring the business you poured your life into back after losing it in a lockdown. It doesn’t get you credibility.Being right feels like a consolation prize six years later.

Fauci won’t go to prison for any of this.

But his contempt of Congress—his refusal to answer any questions despite having immunity from federal prosecution—should land him in jail because the Fifth Amendment should not apply to someone who received a pre-emptive pardon.

Lawyers can argue the fine points of a blanket pardon,but what struck me was Fauci refused to answer any questions at all, which should establish that he showed a contempt for Congress that is unacceptable. Senator Paul called it an obstruction of a congressional investigation. That sounds extremely serious.Whether John Thune—a euphemism for lifer Senate bots—has Rand Paul’s back is another matter.

My take is Fauci was not worried about being prosecuted but rather he was maintaining Omertà, the code of silence to protect his accomplices. By accepting the pardon, Fauci admitted committing crimes. Someone helped him. Now he is protecting them.

Finally, President Trump weighed in on the hearing.

REPORTER: “Dr. Fauci invoked the Fifth Amendment more than 100 times today. Do you think Dr. Fauci should face repercussions for this?”

TRUMP: “Well, I watched the whole thing today, but more importantly, I inherited Fauci. He was here from the 1980s, so I had him for a period of time, and I disagreed with him on a lot.

“I would have had to close down the whole country if I listened to him. I went the federalist way, which is basically to let the governors decide. Generally speaking, the Republican governors did very well.

“The Democrat governors did not do very well.

“But Fauci wanted to have nobody wearing masks, if you remember, and then everybody had to wear five masks, as many masks as you can get. I mean, he made a lot of mistakes.”

Was he working for Obama and on his orders to destroy Trump? Omertà!

Nick Shirley Went to Ceuta, Spain

August 3, 2026 | Sundance |

The young man who boosted the public perception surrounding welfare, HHS and Medicare fraud in Minnesota, has travelled to Ceuta, Spain,to see for himself what exactly is going on.

There are various claims about causation and accusations surrounding the horde of 60,000 young male migrants who have swamped the city and created chaos. However, Mr Shirley asks them directlywhy they came and in general they say they just want a better life with the opportunity to reach mainland Spain. It seems like the average age is 14 to 17-years old.

One of the interesting notes is with the Spanish man who helped to escort and guide Shirley. At 14:50 when asked why Spanish politicians allow the border crisis and mass illegal migration, the man answers, in essence, 3rd world dictators have more absolute power than 1st world democracies. As a consequence, far-left ideologues who rise as leaders in politics see a greater value in having a subservient population for them to rule. Leftists don’t succeed in true democracies, so they need to create the new version of democracy where they can devolve the social structures of the nation and gain.
