Illegal Aliens In New York Spark School Protests
Across the country, states and cities are dealing with an influx of thousands of illegal immigrants who have entered the country in recent weeks. On Tuesday morning, in Williamsburg, a neighborhood of New York City, students and parents protested both in favor of and against the use of a local school’s gymnasium to house the migrants. Children could be seen holding signs saying, “We need recess!” and chanting.

Mark Houck Testifies Before Congress
Mark Houck, the Catholic father of 7 — whose house was raided by the FBI back in September — spoke before the House Judiciary Committee today on Capitol Hill.

IRS Whistleblower’s Team Getting Kicked From Hunter Biden Probe, Lawyers Say
The IRS <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/irs-whistleblowers-team-getting-kicked-from-hunter-biden-probe-lawyers-say" target="_blank" rel="noopener">agent</a> who alleges the criminal investigation into <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/hunter-biden">Hunter Biden</a> has been corrupted by lies and politics is being pulled from the inquiry in a possible act of retaliation. 
The attorneys informed Congress on Monday that their whistleblower client was told that “he and his entire investigative team” were pulled from the IRS investigation into Hunter Biden’s finances. They said that this change allegedly came at the request of the Department of Justice. Attorneys Mark Lytle and Tristan Leavitt called the move “clearly retaliatory and may also constitute obstruction of a congressional inquiry.”
