The U.S. State Department has suspended all visa releases for individuals from Gaza after investigative journalist Laura Loomer exposed shocking footage of Palestinian “refugees” being quietly brought into the United States, allegedly under the guise of humanitarian visas.
Loomer posted video evidence on X showing Palestinian nationals claiming to be “refugees” arriving in U.S. airports, including San Francisco, Houston, Texas, St. Louis, Missouri, and Ohio.
According to her report, these individuals were assisted by a group called Heal Palestine.
Loomer wrote on X:
“Despite the US saying we are not accepting Palestinian “refugees” into the United States under the Trump administration, I have obtained video footage of Palestinians who claim to be refugees from Gaza coming into the United States via San Francisco and Houston, Texas this month. The Palestinians traveled from Gaza to the US with the help of a group called “Heal Palestine”.
How did Palestinians get Visas under the Trump administration to get into the United States? Did @StateDept approve this? How did they get out of Gaza? Is @SecRubio aware of this?
Who from the State Department is assisting “Heal Palestine”?
Why are any Islamic invaders coming into the US under the Trump admin?
Who approved the visas? How many more are being given visas to come into the US, and why are @GavinNewsom @GregAbbott_TX harboring Palestinian “refugees” in California and Texas?
This is a national security threat. We didn’t vote for more Islamic immigration into the United States.
Who signed off on these visas? They should be fired.”

The group facilitating the entries, Heal Palestine, describes itself as a nonpolitical, nonreligious U.S.-registered nonprofit founded in 2024 to deliver “urgent relief and long-term support” to Palestinians.

According to investigative X user Data Republican, Heal Palestine filed a 990-N (meant for charities under $50K in revenue) while receiving grants well over that threshold.
According to Data Republican:
“Heal Palestine (the group who is posting about welcoming Gaza refugees) has EIN 882454707 and filed a 990N for the year 2023. Yet, 990Ns are for charities with revenues under 50K and I found multiple instances of 50K+ grants.
Heal Palestine’s board is full of technocrats … but perhaps most telling is that there is a Mohanned Awad on the board who is publicly declared as bringing “UAE connections to HEAL’s Board.”
Steve Sosebee, the founder of Heal Palestine, also founded the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund (PCRF). They too got an enormous cash influx boost starting in 2023.”

. @bullfrog35 found out that PCRF (Sosebee’s other charity) was funded by Holy Land Foundation, the same one implicated as a terrorist organization and Hamas funding. https://t.co/76w5e8glNo

Data Republican added:
“Today, the arrival of Palestinian refugees in the United States made social media rounds, and it was discovered to be the efforts of an organization called Heal Palestine.
Heal Palestine is led by Steve Sosebee, the same individual who previously partnered with the now-dismantled Holy Land Foundation (HLF), a U.S.-based charity founded by the Muslim Brotherhood shut down after being convicted of funneling millions of dollars to Hamas.
Sosebee was part of HLF’s fundraising operation.
His role: transport injured Palestinian children to the U.S. for care — explicitly picked to elicit sympathy.
HLF’s role: handle donor outreach, press, and scheduling.
The arrangement: HLF took 60% of the donations; Sosebee took 40%.
This was a coordinated financial pipeline to Hamas, a partnership between a U.S. nonprofit and the Muslim Brotherhood’s American fundraising arm.
That was approximately twenty years ago and Sosebee somehow avoided DoJ scrutiny in the Holy Land Foundation case. And now the optics of these Palestinian refugees arriving in the USA are identical.
So, to whom is that 60% going to this time?”

Florida State Rep. Randy Fine blasted the revelations uncovered by Loomer:
“I am troubled by reporting uncovered by Laura Loomer that indicates that Gazans are being allowed into the United States. If true, this is absolutely unacceptable.
My office will be working with the relevant authorities to confirm the truth, understand how it happened, and seek immediate expulsion.”

Loomer confirmed she has already spoken directly with Fine, and that Senator Tom Cotton’s office is also investigating how these visas were granted.
After Loomer’s footage went viral and congressional pressure mounted, the State Department released a statement:
“All visitor visas for individuals from Gaza are being stopped while we conduct a full and thorough review of the process and procedures used to issue a small number of temporary medical-humanitarian visas in recent days.”
Thank you, @marcorubio! This is fantastic leadership on your part.
I appreciate you addressing this crisis in record speed.
Thank you for prioritizing the safety of US citizens. https://t.co/HpOQ6ilvgX

“They Are Guilty of Crimes Against Humanity!” – Stephen Miller GOES OFF on Corrupt California Democrat Governor “Newscum” and LA Mayor Karen Bass (VIDEO)

Trump White House Advisor Stephen Miller absolutely torched California’s crooked Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom and corrupt Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass during an appearance on Fox News on Saturday evening.
LA Mayor Karen Bass fumed this week as Border Patrol Agents arrived outside of Newsom’s press conference on the Democrats’ plan to eliminate five GOP House seats.
Bass was angry that federal agents were arresting her favorite ‘constituents’ – illegal alien criminals.

Stephen Miller accused Newsom and Karen Bass of facilitating child trafficking.
“They are guilty of crimes against humanity for their facilitating child trafficking sex trafficking! They think this is a game. They think this is a joke. This is life and death!” Miller said. “The mayor of Los Angeles and the governor of California run the largest sanctuary city and the largest sanctuary state in America. They refused to turn over tens of thousands of serial criminal illegal aliens to ICE — they get cut loose. They can go on to commit crimes like assaults, armed robbery, home invasion and murder – the most unimaginable, egregious crimes you can think of.”
“All of that blood, all of that suffering, all of that heartache squarely on the soul and conscience of California’s governor and the mayor of Los Angeles,” he said.
“When you meet with the families as you have, whose loved ones have been raped and killed and slaughtered by criminal illegal aliens have no right to be in this country – what Newscum is doing, what Bass is doing – are unforgivable,” he added.
“And God bless the ICE agents, Border Patrol Agents – doing this mission on behalf of the orders of President Trump to make America safe for our citizens,” Stephen Miller said.

NEW: Trump Reportedly Pushing for a Trilateral Summit With Putin and Zelensky Next Friday, August 22

Trump and Putin in Anchorage, Alaska: peace process at a rapid pace – Wiki Commons.
Long gone are the days when it seemed impossible that Trump and Putin (and Zelensky) would meet.
In the aftermath of the US-Russia Alaska Summit, the peace process continues at a rapid pace.
We learned today that Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelensky will go to DC to meet with Donald J. Trump, possible accompanied by some European leaders.
But a report also arises today that Trump is pushing for a trilateral meeting with Zelensky and Russia’s Putin.
President Trump wants to arrange a trilateral summit with Putin and Zelensky as soon as next Friday, August 22, two sources with knowledge said. @DavidLawler10 and me write for @axioshttps://t.co/gJWI1nd4JY

Axios reported:
“Trump will meet Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Monday in Washington. He also told European leaders in a post-summit call that he wants to arrange a trilateral summit with Putin and Zelensky as soon as next Friday, the sources said. But based on Putin’s conditions, a major breakthrough appears unlikely.
Trump also invited the European leaders on the call to join Monday’s White House meeting, the sources said.
Trump and his special envoy Steve Witkoff briefed Zelensky and the leaders of the U.K., France, Germany, Italy, Finland, NATO and the European Commission on Putin’s positions last night on their flight back to Washington.”
Putin has deescalated slightly his territotial demands.

“They said Putin had demanded that Ukraine cede two of the four regions to which Russia has laid claim (Donetsk and Luhansk), and freeze the front lines in the other two (Kherson and Zaporizhzhia). Russia controls nearly all of Luhansk, but only about three-quarters of Donetsk.”
Putin was apparently also willing to negotiate the areas in Ukraine’s Sumy and Kharkiv regions that Russian forces have conquered.

“These are Criminals who Support Crime” – Trump Responds to Democrats Paying Protestors to Fight DC Crime Crackdown

President Trump highlighted on Friday recent reports that the Democrats are paying protestors to mobilize against his “attack on crime,” as leftists attempt to fight against his federalization of DC police and federal use of agents and troops on the streets.
“These are criminals who support crime,” the President stated. “They [Democrats] are unelectable!”
President Trump announced on Monday that he is taking federal control over Washington, DC’s Metropolitan Police Department and authorizing the use of National Guard troops to solve the “public safety emergency” in the nation’s capital.
Prior to his announcement in the White House press briefing room, Trump signed two executive actions, including an executive order to invoke powers under section 740 of the DC Home Rule Act and a Presidential memorandum directing the Secretary of Defense to utilize National Guard troops to clean up DC and authorize state governors to send their National Guard troops.
He further sent statutorily required letters to the DC Mayor and necessary congressional committees. Section 740 requires the President to notify committee chairmen and the mayor in order to federalize the Metropolitan police for more than forty-eight hours.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Crowds on Demand CEO Adam Swart said this week that his company has seen a 400% increase in demand for recruited protesters from May to July 2025 compared to the same period last year.
Crowds on Demand is the “largest protest company in the country,” Swart has explained, noting that they specialize in corporate publicity and celebrity publicity.
“We’re probably best known for political advocacy group publicity, that is, creating crowds of peaceful, enthusiastic demonstrators to turn out in favor of a particular cause or in opposition to one.”
Last month, Swart also revealed that he was offered $20 million to provide paid protesters for nationwide anti-Trump protests.

However, Swart has turned down some contracts, saying, "I just don't think it's effective," and "it's going to make us all look bad."
He has also shared concerns that some in the crowd will become violent.
President Trump responded to the news on Friday:
It’s just been found that the Democrats are buying protestors in order to fight my attack on crime. These are criminals who support crime. They are unelectable!
