    FBI, LAPD bust violent Mexican Mafia-linked gang: The era of cartels is over, Kash Patel says
    EXCLUSIVE: Federal and local law enforcement officers arrested 14 suspected leaders of the Rancho San Pedro gang Tuesday in Los Angeles, capping a yearslong investigation into what the FBI called one of the most violent street crews in Southern California and a known arm of the Mexican Mafia.FBI Director Kash Patel told Fox News Digital the bust marks a turning point in the fight against cartel-linked gangs."The era of cartels operating freely in America is over," Patel said. "Every day, the FBI and our partners are dismantling violent networks at the source, stripping their resources, taking criminals off the streets and saving American lives."The FBI's Los Angeles Field Office said agents executed 16 search warrants across San Pedro and nearby communities with help from the LAPD, Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) and the California Department of Justice.ALLEGED GANG LEADER OFFERED BOUNTY TO KILL IMMIGRATION OFFICER, FEDERAL OFFICIALS SAYThe case began in Los Angeles and targeted the gangs leadership, seizing weapons, narcotics and records from homes and meeting spots.Investigators said the probe uncovered links between Rancho San Pedro, the Sinaloa Cartel and the 13th Street gang groups allegedly working together to distribute methamphetamine, fentanyl and heroin throughout Southern California.Officials said the takedown hit a gang with roughly 500 members spread across six cliques that pay "taxes" to Mexican Mafia bosses in state prisons.FBIS NEW YORK BOSS PUTS GANGS ON NOTICE IN AOCS CRIME-RIDDLED 'RED-LIGHT' DISTRICT"This action will cause a significant setback to Rancho San Pedro and their Mexican Mafia overlords and lead to safer streets for San Pedro residents," said FBI Los Angeles Assistant Director Akil Davis.Davis said the arrests dismantled "the command structure" of the gang.LAPD Chief Jim McDonnell praised Harbor Division detectives for building the case "step by step."The federal complaint charges 13 defendants under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act and a 14th as a felon in possession. Prosecutors say the crew trafficked meth, fentanyl, heroin, cocaine and PCP while stockpiling guns to enforce orders.Agents also served warrants at affiliated gang locations across the South Bay, as they pursued cartel supply lines tied to the Sinaloa network.Acting U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli said the case shows "the power of partnerships," and California Attorney General Rob Bonta said the raids "took illegal weapons and dangerous drugs off our streets."CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPRancho San Pedro, founded in the 1970s, mirrors the Mexican Mafias prison-based hierarchy and punishes disloyalty with assaults or executions, according to the complaint.If convicted, most defendants face life in federal prison.All 14 were due in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles on Tuesday. Officials said more arrests could follow as the investigation continues.

    MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell roasts CNN's Jake Tapper over Trump text message 'so-called interview'
    MSNBC hostLawrence ODonnellroasted CNNs Jake Tapper on Monday in a rare instance of mainstream anchors shooting inside the tent.Tapper on Sunday touted an "exclusive interview with President Donald Trump" that was conducted through text messaging. CNNs "State of the Union" anchor asked Trump about Hamas response to his ceasefire proposal, if Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is on board and the government shutdown, but ODonnellsuggested Tapper was either duped by White House staffers or simply conducted lazy journalism."CNN presented a so-called interview that they cant even prove was Donald Trump. They called it breaking news, they called it an exclusive, new interview with President Trump. Thats what they called it, before the interviewer said this," ODonnellsaid before playing video of Tapper saying Trump answered his questions via "text."TAPPER ADMITS FEELING 'HUMILITY' ABOUT PAST BIDEN COVERAGE AS LIBERALS DISPARAGE NEW BOOK"What? You gave him the questions in writing? So now, instead of letting Trump hide behind a phone call, where we can at least know that its him talking, Donald Trump gets to hide behind the black screen of texting? We actually have no idea who texted the replies in that so-called interview," ODonnell said.The MSNBC host said "CNN is unable to prove" it was actually Trump responding."CNN has not revealed how long it took to get a reply to each of the five written questions that apparently got replies from someone," ODonnell said.ODonnell continued to belittle Tapper, suggesting "slow-pitch softball" questions were lobbed at the president. The MSNBC host was particularly bothered when Tapper asked, "How do you think the government shutdown is going to end?"ODonnell said Tapper received the "empty answer" he "deserved," and scolded his liberal media peer for not revealing which questions Trump failed to respond to.JAKE TAPPER'S CNN SHOW HITS LOWEST RATINGS SINCE 2015 DESPITE NEW BIDEN BOOK BUZZ, INTENSE PUBLICITY TOUR"What could be more relevant in reporting an exchange than that is supposed to be with the President of the United States, then, including the questions he refused to answer? We have no idea," ODonnell said.O'Donnell suggested Trump is suffering from mental decline and accused Tapper of helping out the White House communications staff."When the history of Donald Trumps mental decline is written, it will no doubt include that so-called interview yesterday as a turning point in Donald Trumps White House dealing with the challenge of Donald Trump trying to answer questions during this period of obvious mental decline for Donald Trump," ODonnell said."Donald Trump was allowed to become, by CNN, the first president in history to get questions in writing for an interview, questions that he could take home and then Donald Trump was allowed to take -- we dont know how much time to reply to those questions," he continued. "We do know CNN is still waiting for some of them."CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTUREODonnell wasnt finished firing his ire at Tapper and said "this particular interviewer" would be "outraged" if former President Biden had ever answered questions via text message."This particular interviewer wrote an entire book condemning Joe Biden because he didnt like the way Joe Biden answered questions. He thought Joe Biden wasnt up to the job of answering questions as a presidential candidate, particularly in the presidential debate," ODonnell said, referring to Tapper and Axios reporter Alex Thompson's book, "Original Sin: President Bidens Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again."ODonnell even believes Tapper could have set a dangerous precedent."In the Sunday morning interview business, and it is a business, every time they lower their standards for Donald Trump, that becomes the new standard," ODonnell said.A CNN spokesperson defended Tapper."Jake Tapper is a journalist CNN journalists will always take any opportunity to ask questions of those in power and share what we learn with our audience," the spokesperson told Fox News Digital.Tapper said Tuesday on The Bulwark podcast he casually texted Trump and didnt expect to be lauded for the "achievement.""I would much prefer to be doing an interview with him in person, on-camera, but he has not given me an interview since that one in June 2016," Tapper said.Tapper also read the questions that Trump failed to respond to, which included thoughts about Hamas, Obamacare subsidies and whether he would commit to an interview.The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

    HarperCollins UK apologizes to Melania Trump, removes claims about her from book following legal threat
    HarperCollins UK issued an apology to First Lady Melania Trump after it published "unverified claims" about her in a book."HarperCollins UK recently published a book by Andrew Lownie titled Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York. We have, in consultation with the author, removed passages of the book that referenced unverified claims about the First Lady of the United States Melania Trump," HarperCollins UK wrote in a statement Tuesday."Copies of the book that include those references are being permanently removed from distribution. HarperCollins UK apologizes to the First Lady," the statement added.Melania Trump shared the statement, which was first posted on HarperCollins UK's X account, to her nearly 4 million X followers. FIRST LADY MELANIA TRUMP PUTS HUNTER BIDEN ON $1B NOTICE OVER 'FALSE, DEFAMATORY' EPSTEIN COMMENTSThe book, which focuses on Prince Andrew, examines the disgraced royal's ties to the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Lownie alleged that Epstein introduced Donald Trump to Melania. Representatives for the first lady rejected the claim, pointing to her own book which states she met her husband at New York City's Kit Kat Club in 1998 and was not introduced to him by Epstein.Melania Trump's team has taken swift action towards those who've promoted the false claim. Back in July, The Daily Beast retracted an article it had published based on comments made by Michael Wolff, who echoed the fabricated Epstein connection. The outlet later issued an apology.DAILY BEAST APOLOGIZES TO MELANIA TRUMP OVER RETRACTED EPSTEIN ALLEGATIONS ARTICLE"The Daily Beast recently published a story headlined Melania Trump Very Involved in Epstein Scandal: Author based on an interview with Michael Wolff. Upon reflection, we have determined that the article did not meet our standards and has therefore been removed from our platforms," The Daily Beast said in a statement last month."In response to a letter from the first ladys attorneys, The Daily Beast has also removed a portion of an episode of The Daily Beast Podcast titled Trumps Epstein Scandal Cant Stop Wont Stop referencing the first lady," the statement continued. "The first lady points to her bestselling book Melania as the definitive account of her life story. We apologize to the first lady and our readers." Veteran Democratic strategist James Carville repeated the claim on his own podcast and similarly issued a retraction and an apology."In last week's podcast episode, we spoke with Judd Legum," Carville said. "After the episode, we received a letter from Melania Trump's lawyer. He took issue with our title of one of those YouTube videos from that episode and a couple of comments I made about the first lady. We took a look at what they complained about, and we took down the video and edited out those comments from the episode. I also take back these statements and apologize."Attorneys for Melania Trump also sent a $1 billion legal threat against Hunter Biden after he made the claim as a guest on Channel 5 with Andrew Callaghan. Biden dismissed the threat and refused to apologize.CLICK HERE FOR THE LATEST MEDIA AND CULTURE NEWSCLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP
