Judicial Coup: Radical Leftist Judges Wage All-Out War Against President Trump and the Nation — 129 Legal Challenges Filed in Two Months, MORE THAN ALL US PRESIDENTS COMBINED!

Maniacal DC Obama Judges Beryll Howell and her running dog James Boasberg – a picture of pure liberal insanity.

Since returning to the White House on January 20, 2025, President Donald J. Trump has been met with an unprecedented onslaught of legal challenges from far-left activist judges and groups determined to sabotage his second term in power.

Appearing on The War Room with Steve Bannon, Josh Hammer, Senior Counsel for the Article III Project, recently warned that what America is witnessing is not just judicial activism—it’s an outright judicial insurrection.

This is similar to how the communist left attacked President Trump using a cadre of radical activist judges his first time in office. Except today, they have super-charged the process.

Not even two months in office, these radical extremist judges continue to coordinate their efforts and wreak havoc on the Trump administration and the United States.

So far, the Supreme Court has failed to shut down the lawlessness of these far-left activists.

In fact, on Tuesday we saw Chief Justice John Roberts siding with these radical communists and lecturing President Trump on his response to this complete lawlessness.

Democrats and their radical communist judges are tearing apart the country, and Roberts is attacking President Trump! What is going on?

Attorney Josh Hammer: “Let me just lay the scene briefly here. What we’re seeing is not just judicial activism, Steve. I used the words very carefully there. I mean, this is a full-on judicial insurrection, going back to the very first days of this administration in power.

By the way, those of us with a long enough memory to remember the first Trump administration. This is nothing new.

The first Trump administration from 2017 to 2021, faced, by my count, I believe, it was 65 so-called nationwide injunctions, which, by the way, is more than the first 44 presidents of the United States combined, literally in all of American history, faced there.

They basically picked up in January, just last month, as if they hadn’t lost a beat over the past four years. Whether it’s a judge in Washington State or Ohio or Washington DC or Florida, or Hawaii, the notion that you can issue a TRO, a temporary restraining order, and thereby try to bring a federal executive branch policy and executive order to halt. It’s completely anathema. It’s bat-crap crazy. That’s not how the separation of powers works.”

Activist Judge Chutkan ruled last week that state attorneys general can access information about DOGE employees working to cut waste and fraud in government. Chutkan put a target on the backs of these genius kids so violent leftists could pursue them on the streets of America. What a horrible woman!

Crazed America-hating Judge Beryl Howell blocked President Trump from banning far-left law firm Perkins Coie from all government business and buildings. Perkins Coie was central in the scam to take down President Trump his first term in office with their Russia-Putin hoax.

Today alone 4 federal judges ordered:
a) Elon Musk to reinstate USAID workers;
b) Trump to state disclose when/where flights left w/ terrorists;
c) reinstatement of transgender to military;
d) reinstatement of Dep’t of Education grants.

And Judge James Boasberg is ordering President Trump to bring planeloads of murderers, rapists and gang members back into the United States. His hatred for America is now out in the open for all to see!

Josh Hammer noted that the first Trump administration, from 2017 to 2021 faced 65 nationwide injunctions.

President Trump, in less than two months, has faced 129 legal challenges by activist judges. Only two cases are closed.

The full list of 129 legal challenges is included on the Just Security website.

US News is also tracking the lawsuits against the Trump administration.

According to Elon Musk’s Grok AI:

Historical analysis suggests that fewer than 10 presidents before Trump faced direct, personal legal challenges.
A conservative estimate, accounting for documented cases and likely unreported minor lawsuits, might place the total number of legal challenges—broadly defined as lawsuits, impeachment efforts, or significant court disputes—against all pre-Trump presidents at around 20 to 30 over 227 years (1789–2017). This figure is speculative, as no definitive tally exists, and it pales in comparison to Trump’s legal entanglements.

The far-left judicial insurrectionists and institutions have already filed 129 legal challenges against President Trump less than two months into his second term. This is more than twice as many legal challenges that he went through during his first full term.

It is obvious that this is a coordinated attack by the far-left to destroy Trump’s all-star administration and the nation.

And, Chief Justice Roberts is lecturing President Trump?

Greg Gutfeld had it right Tuesday when he told Roberts to “Shut the eff up!”

Hilaria Baldwin Emasculates ‘Beta’ Husband Alec Baldwin on the Red Carpet: ‘When I’m Talking, You’re Not Talking’

Screenshot

Hilaria Baldwin, infamous for her fake Spanish accent, publicly berated her husband, Alec Baldwin, during an interview at the reopening of Planet Hollywood Times Square in New York City.

The couple, who were promoting their new reality show, The Baldwins, were in the middle of an interview with ExtraTV when Alec tried to lighten the mood with a joke.

Asked about a second season of their show, he quipped that it should be called The Hilaria Show. But instead of laughing, Hilaria immediately shut him down.

Reporter: We want more of this. Season 2—do we know anything?

Alec Baldwin: The Hilaria show.

Hilaria Baldwin: No. I think we’re going to see. We’re going to see how it feels to have it be out there.

Alec Baldwin: It’s going to be great. You’re a winner.

Hilaria Baldwin: Oh my God. When I’m talking, you’re not talking.

Alec Baldwin: I’m sorry.

Alec Baldwin: No, when I’m talking, you’re not talking. This is why—yes, we’ll have to just cut him out of the show. I think this is a really raw show, and it’s very real, and we took a lot of chances. I think that we’ll see where it leads us. We’ll see what it feels like to have it be out there, and then we’ll see if people like it. That’s another thing too.

After being scolded like a baby, Alec stepped away to speak with someone off-camera.

Alec eventually slinked back into the frame, trying to salvage some dignity.

As the interview continued, Alec attempted to flatter his wife—”I’m just captivated by your beauty. You’re so beautiful” —seemed to do little to lighten the mood.

At one point, she even threatened to walk out of the interview.

The reporter, trying to steer the conversation back on track, asked Hilaria for her take on motherhood.

Reporter: You’ve spent your career in Hollywood, but I have to know—because we are loving the show, by the way, and loving getting to know your family—is it harder to memorize scripts or be yourself on unscripted television?

Alec Baldwin: Oh, it’s so hard. It’s so hard.

Reporter: What makes it so hard?

Alec Baldwin: It’s a good question. I think it’s because you don’t want it to be dull. If you showed the way our life really is, you’d get it after an hour—it’s the same thing a lot. Not just the two of us in our life, but with the kids. We like routine. It’s good for the kids to have a routine. She, as a mother, is very good at keeping them on a routine. But you feel the desire to make it more silly than it might be.

Hilaria Baldwin: I have to say that every… I don’t think you make it more silly than it is. I actually feel…

Alec Baldwin: I’ve tried. Oh, you didn’t get that on the show?

Hilaria Baldwin: No. We just cut all that part out.

Alec Baldwin: Cut me out.

Hilaria Baldwin: When you’re trying to make it silly, we cut it. No, I think that every day, because we like routine, and I think anybody who’s a parent knows that routine is king. Or queen. Routine is key. We’ll just say king and queen at the same time. It’s essential.  But I think that us trying to… every day…

Alec Baldwin: What’s the word for “essential” in Spanish?

Hilaria Baldwin: Essential… Oh my God. You’re distracting me right now.

Alec Baldwin: Sorry.

Hilaria Baldwin: Now you’re just doing that. Why are you distracting me?

Alec Baldwin: I’m just captivated by your beauty. You’re so beautiful.

Hilaria Baldwin: Yeah, you’re just distracting me.

Alec Baldwin: It’s so beautiful.

Hilaria Baldwin: Oh my God, stop. You’re annoying me. Stop. It’s not cute. He’s distracting me. I’m going to walk out of this interview.

Reporter: I need the motherhood notes.

Hilaria Baldwin: No. Okay, go back. Let me go back. It’s all about routine. It’s all about routine. Every day, we strive to be boring, and then unboring things happen to us, as they do with seven children.

Second Batch of JFK Assassination Files Released by National Archives

The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) has released a second batch of documents related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

This follows President Donald Trump’s January 23, 2025, executive order requiring the full declassification of all remaining records concerning the assassinations of both JFK and his brother, Robert F. Kennedy.

The latest release includes more than 31,400 pages across 1,059 PDF files, adding to the initial batch made on Wednesday evening, which contained 32,000 pages spanning 1,123 PDF files.

These files, part of the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection, are accessible online at the National Archives (JFK Release 2025) or in person at the National Archives at College Park, Maryland.

“Per DNI, there are still more docs being uploaded to archives website. They are scanning and uploading in real time. ALL documents can be viewed in person at the [National Archives] facility in College Park, Maryland if you don’t want to wait for them to be uploaded online. Please share this if you see people asking,” Rep. Anna Paulina wrote.

According to Luna, “The file I am particularly interested is a CIA IG report from whistleblowers alleging that the CIA hid information from Congress ref JFK assassination as it implicated them (shortly after the assassination). We were given this as a tip and there is actually a document we are currently tracking down.”

DNI Tulsi Gabbard also released the following statement following the release of first batch:

President Donald J. Trump promised maximum transparency and a commitment to rebuild the trust of the American people in the Intelligence Community (IC) and federal agencies. Part of that promise was to fully release previously-classified records related to the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy, Senator Robert F. Kennedy, and the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

President Trump’s Executive Order 14176 stated, “the continued redaction and withholding of information from records pertaining to the assassination of JFK is not consistent with the public interest and the release of these records is long overdue.” The President announced that these records should be released without redactions on Tuesday, March 18.

Upon receiving the President’s decision, Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard immediately sent out a directive across the IC conveying his directive to provide all unredacted records within the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection to the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) for immediate release.

Starting today, the records will be available to access either online at archives.gov/fjfk, or in person, via hard copy or on analog media formats, accessible to the American people at National Archives at College Park, MD. Records that are currently only available for in-person viewing are being digitized and will be uploaded to the archives.gov/jfk repository in the coming days. DNI Gabbard will post updates on X (@DNIGabbard) and Truth Social (@DN/TulsiGabbard) as the files are released. The files will also be available on the White House’s website.

This release consists of approximately 80,000 pages of previously-classified records that will be published with no redactions. Additional documents withheld under court seal or for grand jury secrecy, and records subject to section 6103 of the Internal Revenue Code, must be unsealed before release. NARA is working with the Department of Justice to expedite the unsealing of these records. Grand juries from many years ago have already seen them, so most of this information is already out, but regardless of this, this information will be immediately released upon the direction of the Court.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Anti-Israel Activist Mahmoud Khalil Breaks His Silence — Declares Himself a ‘Political Prisoner’ and Whines Over Conditions at ICE Facility

By: Ben Kew
Mahmoud Khalil / Breakthrough News / Screenshot

The Palestinian activist and organizer of the pro-Hamas protests at Columbia University, Mahmoud Khalil, has declared himself a “political prisoner.”

In his first remarks since he was detained with a view to revoking his permanent residency, Khalil also complained about the “cold mornings” he was experiencing at his ICE detention facility in Louisiana.

“I am a political prisoner,” he said in a statement circulating online.

“I am writing to you from a detention facility in Louisiana where I wake to cold mornings and spend long days bearing witness to the quiet injustices underway against a great many people precluded from the protections of the law.”

Khalil added that the Trump administration “is targeting me as part of a broader strategy to suppress dissent” and warned that all “visa-holders, green-card carriers and citizens alike will all be targeted for their political beliefs.”

He continued:

My arrest was a direct consequence of exercising my right to free speech as I advocated for a free Palestine and an end to the genocide in Gaza, which resumed in full force Monday night.

With January’s ceasefire now broken, parents in Gaza are once again cradling too-small shrouds, and families are forced to weigh starvation and displacement against bombs. It is our moral imperative to persist in the struggle for their complete freedom.

Who has the right to have rights? It is certainly not the humans crowded into the cells here. It isn’t the Senegalese man I met who has been deprived of his liberty for a year, his legal situation in limbo and his family an ocean away.

It isn’t the 21-year-old detainee I met, who stepped foot in this country at age nine, only to be deported without so much as a hearing.”

Justice escapes the contours of this nation’s immigration facilities.

As a graduate student at Columbia University, Khalil helped organize the notorious anti-Israel protests that heavily disrupted life on campus and threatened the safety of Jewish students.

During one of his protests at Barnard College, fellow activists distributed pamphlets sourced from the “Hamas media office,” directly linking the demonstration to Hamas propaganda. 

Wow. Read this full letter from Mahmoud Khalil. “I have always believed that my duty is not only to liberate myself from the oppressor, but also to liberate my oppressors from their hatred and fear.” pic.twitter.com/CfhGd5gdSw

— Sarah Lazare (@sarahlazare) March 18, 2025

Hamas is designed as a terrorist organization by the U.S. State Department.

However, there are other questions surrounding Khalil’s background.

Earlier today, The Gateway Pundit revealed how Mahmoud may have links to both American and British intelligence agencies, even holding a security clearance from the latter.

Khalil eventually moved to New York City in 2022 on a student visa to attend the Columbia University’s School of International and Public Affairs (SIPA).

BREAKING BIG: Is Mahmoud Khalil a British Spook? He Worked at British Embassy in Beirut – Had Security Clearance – Attended Columbia University’s SIPA School – Linked to CIA

Whatever his motives, the good news is he won’t be America’s problem much longer.

Column: CBS News Paints Trump As Worse Than Venezuelan Gangs

In the moral battle between President Donald Trump and the violent Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua, the media have chosen a side. The foreign gangsters are less morally questionable than the president. The Trump administration sent a plane stuffed with alleged Tren de Aragua members to El Salvador, which is apparently more of a crime than whatever the gangsters did in America. There are legal issues here. An Obama-appointed federal judge tried to order Trump not to send the plane. The administration didn’t release their names or their offenses, so some may not be gangsters. The flight can be debated. But in today’s media, the first objective is to present Trump as a malignant actor. The tone of his coverage should be all-negative, all the time. There’s nothing resembling an “achievement” on immigration. On CBS Mornings Plus, co-host Adriana Diaz weirdly touted an upcoming segment to explain what “the Trump administration’s move to deport hundreds of Venezuelan immigrants using a law from 1798 could mean for you today.” It sounded like Whoopi Goldberg claiming on The View that any of us could be deported for being on the wrong side of Trump. Then came this false labeling. Diaz opened a segment this way: “Joining us now to break it all down is Katherine Yon Ebright, a lawyer with the non-partisan Brennan Center for Justice. Her work focuses specifically on wartime powers and the constitutional separation of powers.” To be blunt, this is a lie. This leftist group may be tax-exempt, but it’s not nonpartisan. Take a look at the Open Secrets website for campaign contributions by employees of the Brennan Center for Justice. It lists hundreds of contributions -- but only to liberal PACs and to Democrats, including Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama for President. Four Brennan Center staffers donated to Kamala’s presidential campaign last year. You can also tell this is a Democrat episode on CBS when Diaz compared Trump’s flight of gangsters and their legal justification under a 1798 law to “the internment of 31,000 non-citizens of Japanese, German, and Italian descent after the bombings of Pearl Harbor.” CBS mentioned Ronald Reagan apologized for it as a regrettable episode of “racial prejudice,’ but they didn’t mention the president at that time was their Democrat hero Franklin Roosevelt. “Nonpartisan” Ebright played the same game: “[T]he internment of 31,000 non-citizens without due process and based principally on their ancestry was a shameful moment in American history. And so reviving the Alien Enemies Act to target new ethnic groups today is, frankly, un-American and it shows that we haven’t learned from the mistakes of our past.” So FDR was “un-American”? It’s weird when the Left calls things “un-American,” since they generally hate nationalism and patriotism in all its forms. Any border enforcement against illegal aliens (even violent criminals) is “targeting ethnic groups,” as if it's just like FDR interning actual American citizens. The only balancing note was co-host Tony Dokoupil acknowledging these gangsters committed some crimes in America. He noted officials said the gangsters trade immigration paperwork and hide their gang affiliation: “So within the law, what can this government do to take care of the very real threat of violence without trampling on the civil liberties that you’re concerned about?” The Left touts the “civil liberties” of illegal immigrants as if they were uniformly sympathetic Trump victims. When some of these people commit violent crimes – and the raped and/or murdered people lose their civil liberties -- networks like CBS ignore or downplay them, because that would feel like positive coverage for Trump, and that cannot be allowed.

Members of City Council in Fort Myers, Florida CRY During Meeting About Cooperating With ICE (VIDEO)

The city council in Fort Myers, Florida recently held a meeting to discuss cooperating with ICE on illegal immigration, with specific regard to the community’s police force.

WINK News reported:

The agreement would grant Fort Myers police officers the authority to question individuals they suspect of being in the U.S. illegally and process them for immigration violations if arrested for a crime.

Officers would also be able to make arrests without a warrant if they believe someone is violating immigration laws and might escape before a warrant can be obtained.

The vote failed, by a 3-3 tie, but the people on the council who opposed working with ICE actually cried and held hands in the meeting.

America needs strong leaders right now. These are not strong people, this is pathetic. Watch:

Video of the Fort Myers City Council meeting where they did not approve their officers to have an agreement with ICE is even more insane because the members who voted against it started crying, holding hands:

The Florida Phoenix reports that this issue is far from resolved:

Florida AG threatens Fort Myers city council with removal if they don’t cooperate with ICE

Attorney General James Uthmeier is threatening three Fort Myers city council members with removal from office after they refused Monday to deputize police officers to participate in immigration enforcement.

Uthmeier, who became the attorney general a month ago, warned the council that Gov. Ron DeSantis could remove them from office if they didn’t allow the city police to question people about their immigration status and detain those subject to deportation.

After hours of public testimony and debate, the city council of the Southwest Florida city voted a 3-3 deadlock Monday, stopping city police from entering into an agreement with the federal government to cooperate in immigration enforcement efforts…

“Failure to correct the Council’s actions will result in the enforcement of all applicable civil and criminal penalties, including but not limited to being held in contempt, declaratory or injunctive relief, and removal from office by the Governor,” Uthmeier wrote in the letter he sent to the council Tuesday.

This is not a council on a college campus, these people are in charge of a city. They ought to start acting like it.

Network Coverage of Tesla Terror Attacks Is Mixed, at Best

You can tell which news stories best advance the left’s narrative, by the similarities in how they are covered among the networks. There is a sameness and fluidity to the stories, which often touch the same points. On inconvenient, counternarrative stories you often get disjointed coverage- mixed at best and often reluctant. Case in point, coverage of the rash of violent attacks against Tesla vehicles and service centers. Coverage was mixed across the networks. The most thorough report, shown below in its entirety, comes via the NBC Nightly News (click “expand” to view transcript). LESTER HOLT: Fiery scenes in Las Vegas and Kansas City, Missouri overnight as Tesla vehicles were set on fire. It appears to be the latest in a string of vandalism attacks against the company. Here’s NBC’s Liz Kreutz. LIZ KREUTZ: Tonight, authorities investigating what they are calling a targeted attack on a Tesla repair center in Las Vegas.This dramatic video showing multiple cars in flames. According to authorities, the suspected arson occurred early this morning. When police arrived, they found five vehicles set on fire or damaged, and the word “resist" spray-painted on the front of the business. LAW ENFORCEMENT SPOKESPERSON: We believe the suspect approached the business wearing all black clothing, and he used what appeared to be molotov cocktails and a firearm to conduct his attack. KREUTZ: Just hours before in Kansas City, two Tesla Cybertrucks set ablaze at a dealership there. Tonight the FBI stepping in to help local police investigate both incidents. SPENCER EVANS: To those who might think that something like this is justifiable or potentially even admirable, we want to let you know it's a federal crime. We will come after you. KREUTZ: While authorities say the identities of the suspects and the motivation behind the attacks are still unknown, it comes amid at least 16 reports of vandalism to Tesla vehicles and dealerships across the country, as people nationwide protest Tesla CEO Elon Musk and his prominent role in the Trump administration. PROTESTER: We are out here because we are defending democracy. KREUTZ: President Trump sending a warning to those who vandalize Tesla property: DONALD TRUMP: If you do it to Tesla, and you do it to any company, we are going to catch you and you are going to go through hell. KREUTZ: Tesla's stock seeing a sharp drop, down more than 40% this year. Tonight, Musk reposting the video from Las Vegas, calling the incident “terrorism.” And Lester, here in Vegas authorities have blocked off the street as they continue the investigation. They’re working to figure out who owns these vehicles. Because it is a repair shop, it is likely that many are owned by people, individuals, and not the company. Lester. HOLT: All right. Liz Kreutz tonight, thank you. NBC covered everything. The attacks in size and scope, the likely motivation behind the same, and a broad scope of incidents across multiple cities. There was no ambiguity in how NBC covered the Tesla attacks. Even if correspondent Liz Kreutz was uncomfortable pulling the trigger on the term “terrorism”, only using the word when citing Tesla CEO Elon Musk, it was made clear to viewers that this was the likely motivation behind the attacks.  While imperfect and shunted off the A-block, NBC at least delivered a full report. In contrast, CBS and ABC did their level best to avoid reporting on the matter, relegating the story to tiny briefs devoid of most or all context.   Here’s a transcript of CBS’s 24-second brief: MAURICE DuBOIS: Police in Las Vegas are searching for whoever targeted a Tesla repair shop. At least five vehicles were shot at or set on fire. A growing number of Teslas have been vandalized nationwide, apparently, to protest Elon Musk's involvement in the Trump administration. Tesla stock fell more than 5% today. Forbes says Tesla’s now been replaced by SpaceX as Musk’s most valuable company. On the one hand, there is a mention of a potential political motive behind the attacks- the basis for a terror charge. But anchor Maurice DuBois also threw in a non-related mention of Tesla’s stock price. But the worst clearly was ABC’s report- which did not get into a motive at all.  DAVID MUIR: Tonight, the FBI and ATF are investigating possible arson attacks targeting Teslas and Cybertrucks in multiple states. Police say five Teslas were damaged in a targeted attack at a Tesla collision center- these pictures from Las Vegas. A suspect seen in surveillance throwing Molotov cocktails at two Teslas and firing a gun into several others. Federal authorities also investigating likely arson- this is Kansas City, Missouri right here, two Cybertrucks set on fire at a Tesla dealership.  David Muir avoided any mention of Elon Musk or his role within the administration, or DOGE or anything else as a potential motive. The lack of mention or hint at terrorism is tantamount to apologia for domestic terrorism.  PBS News Hour had nothing on the Tesla vandalism. Because terror attacks against Elon Musk are counternarrative, the media had no hymnal from which to sing in unison. Left to their own devices, coverage was spotty. Reasonable people may infer that coverage would be (D)ifferent if the partisan affiliations were inverted.

Chuck Schumer Scolded by the Harridans of ‘The View’ for Caving on Continuing Resolution Bill (VIDEO)

People on the left are absolutely furious that some Democrats, including Senator Chuck Schumer, voted for the continuing resolution bill that keeps the government open.

Many people don’t even know or care what’s in the bill, they just see this as a win for Trump which fills them with rage. They believe everything must be resisted, no matter the outcome.

Schumer went on The View today and was subjected to the ire of the hosts who accused him of caving to Trump.

NewsBusters has details:

On Tuesday, the liberal ladies of ABC’s The View finally got their highly anticipated chance to rage and vent at Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) for leading nine other Democrats to vote for the Republican Continuing Resolution to avoid a government shutdown. Their reactions ranged from simply asking “why” to questioning his ability to lead and suggesting he should “step aside” as a leader of the party and make way for younger radicals…

Faux conservative Alyssa Farah Griffin, who boasted about voting for Vice President Kamala Harris, came at Schumer from the left and pressed him on leaving Democratic leadership to get out of the way of up and coming radicals. She even cited his behind-the-scenes work to get former President Biden to drop out of the 2024 presidential race.

“There seems to be a disconnect between the younger generation and some of the newly elected Democrats and yours,” she prefaced. “Do you believe that the party has confidence in you to continue to serve as its leader, and as somebody who was influential in helping Biden’s decision to step aside, do you think it might be for you too?”

The outrage directed at Schumer from co-host Sunny Hostin took on a more personal tone, especially after she lamented: “And it gives me no pleasure to say this to you because we are friends, but I think you caved.”

Sunny Hostin was particularly accusatory.

Elon Musk Confirms That He Offered to Return Astronauts Sooner But Was Turned Down by Biden Admin ‘For Political Reasons’ (VIDEO)

Elon Musk appeared on the Sean Hannity show tonight and confirmed that he could have returned the stranded astronauts before today and that SpaceX made the offer to the Biden administration but was turned down for reasons which were political.

This is nothing short of amazing. The people in the Biden administration were so petty that they put their political ambitions ahead of the lives of these people. How is this not already a national scandal?

In the clip below, Sean Hannity prefaces his question by stressing that this should not be a moment for politics, but that he wants clarification. Musk says, “We definitely offered to return the astronauts earlier, there’s no question about that. The astronauts were only supposed to be there for eight days and they’ve been there for ten months. So obviously that doesn’t make sense, SpaceX could have brought the astronauts back after a few months at most and we made that offer to the Biden administration. It was rejected for political reasons and that’s just a fact.”

BREAKING: Corrupt Obama Judge Chutkan Temporarily Blocks Lee Zeldin From Clawing Back $20 Billion From Biden EPA Slush Fund

Judge Tanya Chutkan

A federal judge on Tuesday evening temporarily blocked EPA Chief Lee Zeldin from clawing back $20 billion from the Biden EPA’s slush fund.

Judge Tanya Chutkan, an Obama appointee, ruled that Lee Zeldin cannot claw back the money currently being sheltered at Citibank for 8 different ‘green’ nonprofits.

The $20 billion sitting at Citibank will not be restored to the 8 nonprofits yet.

Judge Chutkan’s TRO temporarily stopped Lee Zeldin from reclaiming the funds.

“When the court asked EPA to proffer evidence justifying its decision given the terms of the agreement, its only response was to refer to the termination letter, which gave no legal justification for the termination,” the judge wrote.

EPA Chief Lee Zeldin last Tuesday said he notified the eight recipients of the $20 billion from the Biden EPA’s slush fund that their grants have been terminated.

“It is my commitment to President Trump, Congress, and you, that EPA will be an exceptional steward of your tax dollars. I’ll have it no other way!” Lee Zeldin said.

Lee Zeldin previously clawed back the $20 billion in grants under the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF) and Citibank agreed to freezing the funds earmarked for the eight nonprofits.

According to AP, the money was awarded to “Coalition for Green Capital, Climate United Fund, Power Forward Communities, Opportunity Finance Network, Inclusiv and the Justice Climate Fund.”

Last week Zeldin said he notified the nonprofits that their grants have been terminated.

Update: @EPA just notified 8 recipients of $20 BILLION in Biden EPA “gold bars” that their grants have been TERMINATED!

It is my commitment to President Trump, Congress, and you, that EPA will be an exceptional steward of your tax dollars. I’ll have it no other way! pic.twitter.com/PjJ5WOlaY1

— Lee Zeldin (@epaleezeldin) March 11, 2025

Last month Lee Zeldin provided an update to the money wasted on Biden’s watch in response to undercover video posted by Project Veritas in December.

As previously reported, an EPA advisor was exposed in a Project Veritas undercover video admitting that the agency rushed to allocate billions of taxpayer dollars to climate change initiatives just before President Donald Trump’s inauguration.

Zeldin said the $20 billion was “awarded to just 8 entities that were then responsible for doling out your money to NGOs and others at their discretion with far less transparency. Just under $7 billion was sent to one entity called the Climate United Fund.”

WATCH:

The Biden EPA tossed $20 billion of “gold bars off the Titanic”.

President Donald Trump ordered the release of approximately 1,123 PDF files of previously classified documents related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, fulfilling a long-standing promise to declassify all remaining records.

These files, part of the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection, are accessible online at the National Archives (JFK Release 2025) or in person at the National Archives at College Park, Maryland.

Internet sleuths and researchers have been combing through these files, uncovering what they believe are significant revelations.

The Pentagon’s War on Wasted Dollars

This story originally was published by Real Clear Wire

By Wilson Beaver , Anna Gustafson
Real Clear Wire

So far, Elon Musk’s DOGE has swept through government agencies like USAID, brushing off cobwebs and uncovering skeletons as it goes. Now, DOGE is set to enter a much bigger agency whose shortfalls demand reform: the Department of Defense (DoD).

Long criticized for its budget woes, the DoD has recently faced accusations of overspending, underspending, and even simple misspending – criticisms which are all well founded. In fact, the DoD consistently mismanages its budget, a fact that’s led it to fail all of its last seven audits.

To address these issues, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth recently announced that he would work with DOGE to conduct a DoD-wide budget review. Already, this initiative has revealed $80 million in wasteful spending, including $1.9 million in “DEI transformation and training” and $3.5 million in “Defense HR Support for DEI.”

While the Pentagon is notoriously resistant to change, additional pressure from DOGE and the administration could finally force the reforms needed to modernize the American military, refocus on warfighting capabilities, and rid the Pentagon of absurd budget line items.

But DOGE’s mission isn’t just to slash budgets: it’s also to restore efficiency. Specifically, DOGE’s role is to ensure the federal government makes the most effective use possible of American taxpayer dollars.

Fundamentally, the DoD exists to ensure America’s warfighting capability—a task DOGE has no intention of obstructing. And even as the DoD’s mission grows more and more urgent, Pentagon dollars continue to be misused, a flaw that cries for immediate correction.

Hegseth recently announced he’d be implementing a DoD budget “cut” of 8%, or about $50 billion. Rather than simply imposing strict cuts, this plan seeks to “refocus… and reinvest… existing funds” to build a more lethal fighting force, restore “warrior ethos,” and reestablish global deterrence.

This shift is essential at a time when our arsenal is severely depleted and outdated and we lack the ships and planes to deter China from launching an attack in the Indo-Pacific. To fix this, Secretary Hegseth should prioritize reinvesting funding cuts into procurement and, specifically, into the construction of new of ships, planes, and munitions.

Hegseth should also divert dollars from personnel – a category that accounts for almost a quarter of the DoD’s budget.

Already, he and Musk have announced plans to reduce the civilian workforce by between 5% to 8%, a cut that will save the DoD between $9 and $14.5 billion. So far, he’s implemented this plan via a hiring freeze and the firing of probational employees and recent hires.

Many  have sought to villainize the Pentagon’s budget purge. Yet those in national security should recognize the need to cut defense budget waste, especially given recent developments on the international stage.

There, China continues to rapidly modernize its military to challenge U.S. dominance, while Russia persists in its aggression in Eastern Europe. North Korea still pursues its ever-growing nuclear ambitions (and strengthens its support for Russia), while Iran maintains its destabilizing influence in the Middle East.

These various actors all share one common feature: a vicious antipathy toward the United States.

The burden falls on the Pentagon and the DoD to protect the American people. DOGE represents a historic opportunity for the DoD to further this mission by rethinking how it organizes, supports, and employs its people. The goal isn’t to cut corners—it’s to reinvest in the capacity and capability of America’s warfighting force.

In a world of rising global threats, America cannot afford inefficiency. The Pentagon must embrace DOGE’s mission to break free from outdated bureaucracy and inefficient spending. Only then will the DoD be able to enhance American warfighting capability and ensure our security and prosperity.
