Frank Rose Fought Back
(WASHINGTON, D.C.) – Frank A. Rose was trusted with America’s nuclear arsenal. Cleared by the FBI. Confirmed by the Senate. Appointed by President Biden. Then, almost overnight, he was politically erased. No interview. No formal charges. No hearing. Just a 3:00 a.m. phone call and a forced retirement. Now Rose is fighting back in federal…

Luthmann Op-Ed: Laline’s Blame Trump Farce Amid NY-11 Power Grab
Staten Island is under siege — not from Trump, but from Democrats using race-based lawfare to dismantle NY-11. In his latest column, Brian Laline tells readers to “blame Trump” for a judicial gerrymander orchestrated by Marc Elias and rubber-stamped by a Hochul-aligned judge. The scheme would split Staten Island in half and attach it to…

New York Courts Judicial Pinball
New York’s courts are playing judicial pinball with Richard Luthmann’s politically explosive collections case.

A Gem Amidst the Rot
New York’s judiciary is rotting in plain sight. Political hacks wear robes. Ethics cops run cover. Voters get carved up, litigants get abused, and accountability never comes. Judges like Juan Merchan, Jeffrey Pearlman, Judy McMahon, and Ronald Castorina Jr. turned the bench into a shield for power, not a forum for justice. Oversight chief Robert…

Brian Laline’s Subversion Narrative Exposed
For 50 years, Brian Laline played the role of neutral newsman. This week, the mask finally slipped.

It wasn’t journalism. It was propaganda. This piece dismantles Laline’s fear…
