Jack Smith team tracked Trump defense lawyers’ calls by monitoring his chief of staff’s phone…
The latest memos, released by the White House Government Transparency Task Force on Monday, show FBI agents assigned to Smith’s team in a probe codenamed Plasmic Echo used a dragnet of data gathering tactics in the midst of the 2024 election to monitor phone calls, social media, political endorsements and other constitutionally protected activities in the name of determining whether Trump broke any laws when he brought classified documents to Mar-a-Lago after his first term.

LA’s ‘mansion tax’ backfires spectacularly as thousands of homes and jobs vanish…
A damning new report says the tax, officially known as United to House LA, or ULA — has had a negative impact on the city’s high-end and multi-family real estate markets and collected less than half what it was expected to generate to tackle the city’s housing crisis.
LA’s “ mansion tax,” sold to Angelenos as a way to tax the rich and boost housing, has instead blocked the building of 9,100 homes, wiped out 16,650 full-time construction jobs and cost $452 million in revenue.
The Stop Insider Trading Act Passed the House. Then Democrats Killed It.
Earlier this year, I wrote an opinion piece for The Daily Signal after Heritage Action issued support for the Stop Insider Trading Act as the bill gained steam on Capitol Hill.
