Fox News Media Vice President, Jason Hermes, has been fired after he was caught bragging about spending thousands of dollars at strip clubs on the Fox Corporate card.

The O’Keefe Media Group on Tuesday released undercover video of a Fox News Media VP bragging about spending money at strip clubs and charging it to Fox Corporate cards.

Jason Hermes bragged to an undercover OMG journalist that he can just walk into a strip club and spend thousands of dollars on a Fox corporate credit card.

“You could take this [Fox Credit Card], walk into a strip club, literally, and spend $4,000…on Fox! Go into your corporate manager, and they would sign it and pay it off…it’s still like that.“We would just…lie on the [Fox] expense reports—no one’s gonna f***ing say a word to me,” he said.

“It’s the best job, because I’m a celebrity around all of it, but no one knows me. It’s like winning the lottery,” he said.

Per O’Keefe Media Group:

Jason Hermes, the Vice President of Content Sales and Partnerships for Fox Weather under Fox News Media, admitted to lying on the company’s expense reports and using company funds to cover strip club expenses.

Hermes was caught bragging to our undercover journalist that he oversees approximately $90 million worth of business a year for the company, which makes him “…a celebrity around all of it, but no one knows me.”

Lying on an expense report, such as disguising strip club charges, directly violates Fox Media’s Standards of Business Conduct, which require “accurate and complete” information.

These apparent false entries are rolled into budgets, audits, and corporate filings, making company disclosures misleading instead of “full, fair, and accurate.” Because Fox requires employees to record truthful data, Hermes is in clear violation of this policy, which can constitute financial misconduct.

These possible false expense reports made by Hermes may also violate the Federal U.S. Tax Code 274, which states that “no deduction shall be allowed for an activity generally considered to constitute entertainment, amusement, or recreation.”

Hegseth Blasts Democrat Lawmaker For Calling Iran Conflict a “Quagmire” (VIDEO)

Hearing session with Hon. Hegseth speaking, surrounded by attentive audience members in a formal setting.

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth on Wednesday appeared before the House Armed Services Committee with General Dan Caine, Chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, to testify on the ongoing Iran conflict.

The US and Israel launched a joint attack on Iran at the end of February.

“The biggest adversary we face at this point are the reckless, feckless and defeatist words of congressional Democrats and some Republicans,” Hegseth said in his opening statement.

Pete Hegseth went off on Democrat Rep Garamendi (CA) for calling the Iran conflict a quagmire.

“I watched you call this a “quagmire” on CNN this morning,” Hegseth said.

“My generation served in a quagmire in Iraq and Afghanistan. Years and years of nebulous missions and utopian nation building that led us to nothing,” Hegseth said.

“The way you stain the troops when you tell them this two months in, Congressman, you should know better. Shame on you, calling this a quagmire two months in,” he added.

Hegseth also blasted the Obama-era Iran nuke deal during his statement to lawmakers.

“It gave them a bunch of money up front. The future, the fund you talked about, negotiated deals funded, allowed them to fund their proxies and spread. Hamas and Hezbollah all around the region, build up nuclear capability,” he said.

“President Trump has been clear-eyed,” he said.

“You have to stare down this kind of enemy, who’s hellbent on getting a nuclear weapon, and get them to at the point where they’re at the table giving it up in a way that ensures they’ll never have it,” he said.

London has become very dangerous for Jews.

Under the rule of the leftist Labour party, the United Kingdom has devolved into a society where Muslim extremists roam around raping, maiming, and killing, while failing Prime Minister Keir Starmer only has empty words and no action.

In yet another shocking criminal incident, two Jewish men were stabbed by a Muslim extremist in front of a Synagogue in London.

Images show the attacker targeting the men without provocation.

Watch: Jewish man stabbed in North London.

Watch: Second Attack targeting member of Jewish community.

The 45-year-old man detained was brutally kicked by police while refusing to let go of the knife, and is now arrested on suspicion of attempted murder.

Police said that the man has ‘a history of serious violence and mental health issues’.

Watch: Policemen kick the mand who refuses to let go of the knife.

In the latest development, an Iran-linked terrorist group claimed responsibility for the stabbings in Golders Green.

The Telegraph reported:

“Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamiyya (HAYI), an Islamist group believed to have ties to the Iranian regime, has taken credit on Telegram for the stabbing of two men on Wednesday morning.

The two Jewish victims, one in his 70s and one in his 30s, were treated at the scene for stab wounds and taken to hospital in a stable condition, according to the Metropolitan Police.

Counter-terror police are now leading an investigation into the incident, which marks an escalation in recent attacks on the Jewish community in north London.”

US Indicts Mexican Governor of Sinaloa on Drug Trafficking and Weapons Charges

The US indicted the Mexican Governor of Sinaloa and nine other current and former Mexican officials on drug trafficking and weapons charges.

US prosectors allege the defendants conspired with the Sinaloa cartel to import narcotics into the United States in exchange for political support and bribes.

“The Sinaloa Cartel is a ruthless criminal organization that has flooded this community with dangerous drugs for decades,” said U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton.

“As the indictment lays bare, the Sinaloa Cartel, and other drug trafficking organizations like it, would not operate as freely or successfully without corrupt politicians and law enforcement officials on their payroll. The support of corrupt foreign officials for deadly trafficking of drugs must end. Let these charges send a clear message to all officials around the globe who work with narco-traffickers: no matter your title or position, we are committed to bringing you to justice.”

Per the DOJ:

According to the allegations contained in the Indictment, other court filings, and statements made during court proceedings:[1]

The Sinaloa Cartel (the “Cartel”) is one of the most violent criminal organizations in the world and has transformed the Mexican State of Sinaloa into the geographic epicenter of the global narcotics trade.

From its home base in Sinaloa, the Cartel has worked with criminal elements around the world—cocaine producers and distributors in Colombia and Venezuela, drug traffickers and corrupt politicians throughout Central and South America, and precursor chemical manufacturers in China and elsewhere—to distribute massive quantities of narcotics into the United States and inflict severe damage on communities throughout this country. The Cartel has also carried out rampant violence, including thousands of murders, throughout Mexico and elsewhere around the world, including in the United States.

To protect and grow this drug trafficking empire, the Cartel has allegedly partnered with corrupt politicians and law enforcement officials, including the defendants, who have abused their authority in support of the Cartel, exposed and subjected victims to threats and violence, and sold out their offices in exchange for massive bribes.

Indeed, certain police officials in Mexico, including, as alleged, certain of the defendants, have directly participated in the Cartel’s violence and retribution, including by murdering enemies of the Cartel and kidnapping individuals in Mexico suspected of cooperating with U.S. law enforcement in this investigation.

The defendants charged in this Indictment are current and former government or law enforcement officials in Sinaloa. As alleged, each of the defendants has participated in a corrupt and violent drug trafficking conspiracy with the Cartel to import massive amounts of fentanyl, heroin, cocaine, and methamphetamine from Mexico into the United States.

The defendants have played a variety of essential roles for the Cartel: among other things, the defendants have allegedly shielded Cartel leaders from investigation, arrest, and prosecution; caused sensitive law enforcement and military information to be provided to members of the Cartel and allied drug traffickers to assist the Cartel’s criminal activities; directed members of state and local law enforcement agencies, such as the Sinaloa State Police, the Investigative Police for the Sinaloa State Attorney General’s Office, and the Culiacan Municipal Police, to protect drug loads stored in and transiting through Mexico to the United States; and allowed brutal drug-related violence to be committed by members of the Cartel without consequence. In exchange, the defendants have collectively received millions of dollars in drug money from the Cartel.

As alleged, the defendants have been most closely aligned with the faction of the Cartel run by the sons of Joaquin Archivaldo Guzman Loera, a/k/a “El Chapo,” the Cartel’s notorious former leader, who are themselves known collectively as the “Chapitos.” The defendants have operated at all levels of government and law enforcement in Sinaloa and each abused their positions of trust and authority to help facilitate the Chapitos’ operations. For example, ROCHA MOYA was elected Governor of Sinaloa, a position he has held since on or about November 1, 2021, after the Chapitos allegedly helped him get elected by, among other things, kidnapping and intimidating his rivals. In exchange, both before and after he became Governor, ROCHA MOYA allegedly attended meetings with the Chapitos, at which he promised to protect the Chapitos as they distributed massive quantities of drugs to the United States and, as Governor, ROCHA MOYA has allowed the Chapitos to operate with impunity in Sinaloa.

Similarly, the other defendants have directly and repeatedly helped the Chapitos in exchange for massive drug-fueled bribes. For example, ZAAVEDRA, who is the Deputy Attorney General for the Sinaloa State Attorney General’s Office, has received approximately $11,000 U.S. dollars each month from the Chapitos and, in exchange, has protected Chapitos members from arrest and informed the Chapitos of planned U.S.-backed law enforcement operations.

Certain of the defendants are also alleged to have themselves directly participated in the Cartel’s campaign of violence and retribution. For example, MILLAN, a high-level commander in the Culiacan Municipal Police, allegedly received more than approximately $1,600 U.S. dollars each month from the Chapitos. In exchange, MILLAN gave the Chapitos unfettered access to the Culiacan Municipal Police and used officers from the police force to help the Chapitos maintain their control over Culiacan, including through arrests, kidnappings, and murder.

In or about October 2023, MILLAN allegedly helped the Chapitos kidnap a DEA confidential source and the source’s relative, who the Chapitos then had tortured and killed, because the source was suspected of providing information to the Government in connection with this investigation.

Justice Samuel Alito Humiliates Leftist Lawyer With One Brilliant Question After He Asserts That Trump Ended TPS For Migrants For Racial Reasons (AUDIO)

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito effectively destroyed the argument against barring the executive branch from terminating TPS for migrants with one question, and humiliated an attorney arguing for the migrants.

On Wednesday, the Supreme Court heard arguments on whether the Trump administration could end temporary protected status (TPS) for Haitian and Syrian migrants. Leftist judges in two separate cases previously ruled that the Administration’s efforts to end TPS for these migrants was unconstitutional.

As Fox News notes, the Supreme Court agreed last month to review the two cases, and granted what’s called “certiorari before judgment.” This refers to reviewing the case on its merits before federal appeals courts can review lower district rulings.

Geoffrey Pipoly, the attorney for the Haitian migrants, claimed during Wednesday’s hearing that the sole reason the Trump administration ended TPS was due to racial prejudice against immigrants of color.

Alito, though, quickly blew up Pipoly’s race-baiting argument and sent him scrambling with a brilliant inquiry: Do you think groups of people such as Turks, Syrians, and Greeks are all non-white?

A stuttering Pipoly admitted that Syrians were actually considered white under State Department rules, thus inadvertently conceding his own argument.

Then, he claimed that most Americans would not consider Syrians white if you polled them and reiterated this crazy, non-legal assertion after Alito followed up.

Alito proceeded to ask again about Turks and Greeks. Pipoly responded by saying he did not know.

When asked about Italians and Spaniards, Pipoly claimed they were not considered white over a century ago which caused Alito to quip, “You have a really broad definition of who’s white and who’s not white.”

How embarrassing for Pipoly.

LISTEN:

ALITO: Isn’t it the case that TPS was terminated for quite a list of countries? And (while) none of those is a Nordic country, but when you say they’re all non-white, that’s the distinguishing characteristic?

PIPOLY: That is the distinguishing characteristic that the district court held. But I would emphasize Justice Alito that…

ALITO: But you think that if you put Syrians, Turks, Greeks, and other people who live around the Mediterranean in a lineup, do you think you could say that these people are all non-white?

PIPOLY: I understand that Syrians may be classified as white for the purposes of the State Department or, uh, under certain government programs. But race is, uh, I think, uh, uh, you’d have to poll the public (chuckling) to know what they think the race of a Syrian is. I certainly think they’re not white…

ALITO: Poll the American people to ask if they think Syrians are white?

PIPOLY: I, I, wouldn’t think that most would, Justice Alito.

ALITO: Really? How about Turks?

PIPOLY: I haven’t considered what racial component I would sort Turks into.

ALITO: How about Greeks?

PIPOLY: I don’t know the answer to that either.

ALITO: How about southern Italians?

(laughter)

PIPOLY: Certainly 120 years ago when we had our last wave of European immigration Italians were not considered white so I think things have evolved over time…

ALITO: How about Spaniards?

PIPOLY: Same answer. I think about 120 years ago they were not considered white.

ALITO: You have a really broad definition of who’s white and who’s not white. Again, I don’t like dividing the people of the world into these groups.

Georgia Primaries Under Way: Check Out the Fulton County Democrat Party’s INSANE Ballot Questions!

Board of Registration and Elections meeting in progress, featuring members discussing agenda items at a conference table on November 7, 2025.

Board of Registration and Elections meeting in progress, featuring members discussing agenda items at a conference table on November 7, 2025.
Fulton County Board of Registration and Elections meeting – November 7, 2025

 

Early voting has begun in Georgia for the 2026 mid-term election and will run through May 15, culminating in Election Day on May 19.

As voters head to the polls, or receive their mail-in ballots to fill out, Fulton County residents who chose a Democrat ballot will be subjected to some unusual questions with highly partisan language.

On the primary ballot, the state and county parties are afforded the opportunity to ask questions of their constituents, often having to do with policy suggestions.  For example, the Republican ballot in this primary includes the following questions:

Table of Georgia Republican Party questions addressing election integrity, judicial reforms, education, energy independence, and immigration policies.

Fulton County Republican Party survey questions about immigration laws, tax issues, election integrity, and local political engagement.

 

In stark contrast to policy-driven questions with minimal partisan spin, the Democrat party ballot in Fulton County asks some concerning questions.

For instance, the county party’s questions reference the January 28th FBI search warrant to obtain Fulton County election records from the 2020 election.  This search warrant was signed off by a federal magistrate.

The question asks, “On January 28th, 2026, the FBI raided the Fulton County elections office and took your personal data.  Do you think they should have your personal voter data?” 

The question is bizarre, as the records were obtained through a lawful search warrant and consist of data that is currently held by local and state government.  Much of the seized documents consists of information provided to each of the political parties during an election cycle and to citizens via Open Records requests to provide transparency and accountability.

Many of those records, however, were not provided via Open Records requests with explanations such as they do not exist or have been destroyed.  These include records used for basic accountability such as poll open and close tapes, complete serialized equipment lists, and batch tally sheets, among numerous other records.

Another question asks, “Are you aware a sitting Republican Fulton County…Commissioner served as a witness, alongside other 2020 election conspiracy theorists, on the affidavit the FBI used to steal your private election information?”

The commissioner referenced in the question is Bridget Thorne, a Georgia Tech graduate, software engineer, and a nine-year veteran poll manager who worked the 2020 election in Fulton County.  She testified before a state senate committee following the 2020 election and has filed sworn affidavits raising her concerns.

In November 2022, she was elected by Fulton County residents to serve on the Board of Commissioners and has been an opposition member to the Board’s majority.

Her testimony was part of the probable cause affidavit used to secure a lawfully obtained search warrant.  It was not  “used” by the FBI “to steal…private election information,” as alleged in the ballot question.

Thorne had previously disclosed that an ACLU clerk assigned to her precinct, as was done throughout Fulton County, had access to Georgia’s ENET software via their personal laptop computer:

 

Another question asks, Should known 2020 election deniers sit on the Fulton County Board of Registration and Elections?”

The Fulton County Board of Registration and Elections (BRE) consists of five members.  “Two members shall be appointed” from each of the two political parties receiving the largest and second largest number of votes in the previous election.  The last member is appointed by the Fulton County Board of Commissioners.

The BRE is currently missing a Republican member, as the Board of Commissioners has refused to seat one of the Republican Party nominees.  Julie Adams was seated, despite a bizarre ruling from the Georgia Court of Appeals giving the Board discretion to choose whether to seat a party’s nominee.

Table of questions from Georgia's State and County Democratic Party addressing political ethics, taxation, and election integrity issues.

Georgia’s Holly Kesler joined the Badlands Daily podcast to discuss the primary ballot issues:

Trump GOES OFF on James Comey Following Indictment and Arrest (VIDEO)

Donald Trump speaks during a meeting in the Oval Office, with U.S. flags and framed photos in the background.

President Trump on Wednesday went off on James Comey after the former FBI Director was indicted and under arrest at an Alexandria, Virginia, courthouse.

On Tuesday, a grand jury in the Eastern District of North Carolina indicted James Comey on two felony counts related to his Trump assassination Instagram post.

“Cool shell formation on my beach walk,” Comey said in his caption in May 2025.

’86 47′ is a threat to ‘eliminate/kill’ the 47th president (Trump).

James Comey is facing up to 20 years in prison after he was indicted on two felony counts:

COUNT ONE: Knowingly and willfully make a threat to take the life of, and to inflict bodily harm upon, the President of the United States;

COUNT TWO: knowingly and willfully did transmit in interstate and foreign commerce a communication that contained a threat to kill the President, Donald J. Trump

President Trump went off on James Comey during remarks to reporter in the Oval Office.

“Do you really think he was endangering your life or threatening your life with that post?” CNN’s Kaitlin Collins asked Trump.

“The mobster says to one of his wonderful associates, 86 of them, that means kill them!” Trump said.

“I think of it as a mob term. People think of it as something having to do with disappearing, but the mob uses that term to say when they want to kill somebody, they say 86 the son of a gun!”

“He’s a very dirty cop. He cheated on the elections. He tried to help Hillary Clinton, as you know. He dismissed a lot of things that he should have proceeded with!”

“He’s a dirty cop. He’s a crooked man,” Trump said.
