Tonight on The Tony Kinnett Cast — live at 7PM ET on The Daily Signal's YouTube channel.
The State Department just paused visa interviews worldwide after a Biden-appointed judge struck down Rubio's 75-country immigrant visa freeze — rather than fight country-by-country, the administration is retraining every consular officer on earth. Meanwhile, the DOJ and FBI disrupted a massive Chinese state-sponsored hacking operation that breached the DOJ, NASA, the Federal Reserve, and the Senate itself, and the State Department dropped a bombshell tying Portland's Rose City Antifa directly to Hamas, the IRGC, and Hezbollah through a shared tech network.
TONIGHT'S RUNDOWN:
- Secretary Rubio pauses visa interviews worldwide for retraining after a federal judge struck down his 75-country immigrant visa freeze as unlawful — malicious compliance meets a global shutdown of the system
- The DOJ and FBI disrupt a Chinese state-sponsored hacking operation that breached NASA, the Federal Reserve, the DOJ, the Senate, and more — as a separate ransomware gang claims to have hit the ATF itself, raising questions about how deep this goes
- The Pentagon says it uncovered Afghanistan withdrawal documents stashed in safes specifically to hide them from oversight, with officials warning "the deeper we look, the more there is to look at"
- The State Department reveals Portland's Rose City Antifa used the same encrypted tech network as Hamas, the IRGC, and Hezbollah to organize attacks — Secretary Rubio sanctions the Italy-based collective behind it
- CIA Director John Ratcliffe makes a secretive, unannounced trip to Moscow to meet Russian intelligence officials — we break down what we know
- Senior Democrats scramble in lockstep to denounce Hasan Piker after his comments about Jewish Americans blow up into a full-blown party crisis
