An iconic and beautiful moment of patriotism occurred last night after a pro-Hamas protest was broken up at City College New York (CCNY) by New York City’s finest.
As the New York Post reported, the New York Police Department ripped down the ghastly Palestinian banner atop the CCNY’s flag pole and replaced it with the one flag all patriotic Americans pledge allegiance to: Old Glory.
Video footage shared by NYPD Deputy Commissioner Kaz Daughtry shows the police officers tearing down the unwanted flag of terrorists before throwing it to the ground like a piece of trash.
The officers then raised Old Glory in its place during a ceremony while Daughtry gave a speech.
“An incredible scene and proud moment as we have assisted in restoring order on campus, culminating in raising Old Glory once again on their campus flagpole,” Daughtry wrote.
The New York Post reported the Palestinian flag had been flying at CCNY since agitators raised it last week after setting up an encampment at the school.
Before the gorgeous incident, the NYPD had to contend with a mob of anti-Israel agitators who refused to disperse after being given a Tuesday night deadline to do so.

Barack Obama trashed President Trump during an appearance on the “Smartless” podcast with Joe Biden and Bill Clinton.
“I have been surprised that there haven’t been guardrails inside the Republican Party. Trump didn’t surprise me,” Barack Obama told host Jason Bateman.
“I mean, he comes from New York. There’s nobody in New York who does business with him or lend him money. He’s not considered a serious guy here,” Obama, the former community organizer who has created nothing in his life added.
Obama said he was surprised Trump was elected.
“But, so I was surprised he was elected, but I wasn’t surprised in terms of his behavior. I did expect, and I suspect Bill and Joe, you’d agree with this, that there would be some folks in the Republican Party who would say, no, you can’t go that far. You can’t start praising Putin and saying that his intelligence is better than the US intelligence agencies,” he said.
In 2020 Trump absolutely crushed Obama’s numbers with the most votes of any incumbent in US history. Trump received about 74 million votes in the 2020 presidential election. Obama received about 66 million votes in 2012 (and that’s with fraudulent ballots) so he can take a seat.
Obama trashed Trump and millions of his supporters (more than half the country).

The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is yet another college campus flashpoint for radical leftist Hamas cheerleaders.
On Tuesday, a group of heroic UNC fraternity brothers protected a fallen American flag from a pro-Hamas mob despite a violent onslaught from the radicals.
Early Tuesday morning, UNC administrators shared a statement from Interim Chancellor Lee Roberts and Provost Chris Clemens advising protesters to leave the area and remove tents, tables, and other items by 6 a.m. or face arrest and other consequences ranging from suspension from campus to potentially “expulsion from the university, which may prevent students from graduating.”
Police confirmed approximately 30 anti-Israel demonstrators were detained for refusing to leave the encampment.
UNC Students for Justice in Palestine organized a walkout in protest of the students who were taken into custody.
According to KVIA News, during the walkout, protesters tore down barricades and took down the American flag situated on the quad, and a Palestinian flag was raised in its place.
Chancellor Roberts personally returned with police to replace the American flag while protestors threw bottles, rocks, and water at them and yelled obscenities.
When the protestors attempted to remove the flag again, the Greek community stepped up to protect it while they sang the National Anthem.
They made sure the flag never touched the ground despite the barrage of objects thrown at them and the violent rhetoric shouted at them by the unhinged activists.
According to one student, they stood protecting the flag for more than an hour.
UNC student Guillermo Estrada shared what happened.
“Today was a sad yet empowering day at Chapel Hill. When I walked to class, I saw the Palestinian flag raised on our quad flag pole, and was immediately upset at the act that these ‘protestors’ had made. I cannot say I am fully educated on the Israel/Palestine conflict, but it upset me that my country’s flag was disrespected in order to advocate for another. Shortly after, Chancellor Roberts came with police officers to hang the flag once again. They were met with profanity, middle fingers, thrown bottles, rocks, and water.”
“When the flag was raised once again, the greek community began singing the National anthem. As the Chancellor left, the quad erupted into chaos as protestors began removing the flag once again, preparing to destroy it.”
“My fraternity brother and others ran over to hold it up, in order for it not to touch the ground. People began throwing water bottles at us, rocks, sticks, calling us profane names. We stood for an hour defending the flag so many fight to protect.”
“My parents started a new life in the United States, a country that has helped them flourish and raise two kids. I grew up in a Military community and saw first hand the sacrifices they make. I will not stand for the disrespect these “protestors” cause for the sake of another country. My LDOC will be memorable in knowing that my fraternity brothers and others fought to keep the flag up. But it was also be memorable in knowing that so many yearn to disrespect it.”

On January 6th, Ramey did not make physical contact with Law Enforcement, was not violent, and did not break anything. Yet he was found guilty of assault. He is appealing the sentence based on the lack of evidence brought by the prosecution, false testimonies by government witnesses, and the misrepresentation of evidence by the prosecution.
Before the sentence was even handed down, he was held for nearly two years pre-trial in deplorable conditions.
The Gateway Pundit reported in August that Barry was stabbed in the face for watching Tucker Carlson. Additionally, in a letter to TGP, he sounded the alarm on the abuse he and other J6 defendants are enduring from bigoted correction officers.
Barry’s fiance, Desiree, is working to shed light on what is happening to him and other J6ers.
She recently wrote to The Gateway Pundit to share the mistreatment facing Barry and other J6 political prisoners.
I’m writing this hoping to bring under the microscope two damaging issues with J6ers currently in DOJ/BOP custody and them being labeled behind the scenes, which is affecting their treatment and where they are permitted to serve time.
We already know J6ers are not being treated very well, but it’s even worse than we thought! As I tell the story of my fiancé Barry Ramey, know it’s not a unique story because it’s happening to all the men and women who are serving time for anything related to January 6th.
First, the BOP has wrongfully labeled, not only Barry but a very large portion of J6ers, with the label known as ‘Greatest Severity”.
What does this mean?
It’s a label that they code as a great threat to the community at large. It also means that, with this label, J6er’s eligibility for serving time in a Federal Prison Camp (which is the safest option available for serving incarcerated prison time) is eliminated due to the way the BOP score calculates the label, regardless of whether they, like Barry, have no criminal past.
Yet, sitting in Federal Prison Camps, as we speak, are bank robbers, people who have committed violent crimes, and others convicted of terrible things. How is it that these people are allowed to serve time in Prison Camps, and J6 patriots are being designated with a label that places them in higher security prisons that hold convicted rapists, murderers, gang members, and others with a recurrent history of convictions?
Their justification for this “Greatest Severity” label, as was told to Barry, is that it is not their charges but “their conduct” on January 6th. However, they are attempting to justify this egregious overreach by lumping together all the things that happened or even didn’t happen the entire day of January 6th into one report and applying all of it to J6ers, even if it had nothing to do with them, their charges, their location, etc.
As an example, when reading Barry’s Pre-Sentencing report, it mentions the following things that have nothing to do with Barry.
1. Property damage and vandalism is listed. Barry never damaged or vandalized anything.
2. The Breach inside the capital is listed. Barry never went inside.
3. The initial breach is listed in detail as if Barry had been there even though by time stamp, they say that Barry arrived 20 minutes after that had occurred.
4. The conduct of another J6er, Ryan Samsel, is listed. Barry was nowhere around Mr. Samsel and didn’t even know him at that time. So, what does one thing have to do with the other? It doesn’t. I would guess Mr. Samsel’s report is riddled with misstatements and untruths, to no fault of his own, as well.
5. The entirely false statement claiming Barry threatened an FBI agent investigating his case, despite the fact those charges were dropped after it came to light that it didn’t happen and the prosecution withheld evidence that proved Barry’s innocence on this issue.
So, when you, or anyone in the Federal prison system, read the Pre-Sentencing reports for J6ers, it leads the reader to believe that their conduct was far worse than it was, as shown by the above things that either have nothing to do with Barry or were false accusations. But they are in the report as if they are true. And that is wrong.
The Second horrific and wrong label (and what many believe to be illegal) placed on not only Barry but so many J6ers by the DOJ / BOP is “terrorist.” There is a division of the BOP that focuses on “counter-terrorism.” What seems to be their focus now is to monitor J6ers and take things they say out of context and punish them with more time while under DOJ/BOP custody.
And this has been done in the shadows!
They even told Barry they were monitoring MY social media accounts. I was not at the Capitol on January 6th nor have I even been accused of this. I am a private citizen. I’m not under BOP custody. So, why would the counter-terrorism unit under the BOP monitor MY social media?
Let’s not forget that this DOJ will not even call cartels or Iranian-backed proxy groups “terrorists,” but they are labeling J6ers this way. This is so dangerous! Call me naïve, but I believe there are still some good people left in the DOJ/BOP.
But as Edmund Burke said, “All it takes for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.” This inappropriate torquing of the system behind the scenes causes one to ponder if it’s J6ers now, what next? If doing nothing paves the way for evil to triumph, what then?
Barry may have been charged with two assaults (the 2nd which never happened) and while he is in the process of appeal while serving a five-year sentence, the story that doesn’t get told is the level of provocation that day. And some are saying entrapment.
Imagine being among the crowd on January 6th, peacefully singing the National Anthem like Barry was, only to be erratically barraged by tear gas, concussion grenades, rubber bullets, and witnessing a man get shot through his cheek with munitions!
Was Barry wrong for reacting? He’ll be the first to tell you he wishes he could have done things differently that day.
Should Barry or any J6er be labeled a terrorist?
No! You’ll never catch Barry at a college campus yelling, “Death to Israel or Death to America.” That’s what terrorists yell!
Barry is a good man who stands for the triumph of America, not the triumph of evil.
With thanks,
Desiree (aka Osprey Sensei) Fiancée to J6er Barry Ramey
Michigan Senator Jim Runstead (R) is one of only a few good men in Michigan’s dirty, rotten legislature.
MI Senator Jim Runstead
The sad truth is that the majority-Democrat legislature is mostly filled with self-promoters, deal cutters, and parasites indebted to the three witches at the top of the food chain: the Lockdown Queen of America, FBI kidnap victim and CCP cheerleader, Democrat Governor Gretchen Whitmer, Democrat Attorney General Dana Nessel, who frequently uses lawfare to punish her political enemies and the dirtiest Democrat Secretary of State in America, Jocelyn Benson.
If Senator Jim Runstead’s assessment of a bill that was passed in the Democrat-majority Senate today is accurate, it sure looks like MI SOS Jocelyn Benson, who’s been working overtime to manufacture new ways to cheat in the upcoming 2024 election, owes her Democrat friends in the Senate a big favor.
MI Senator Jim Runstead (R)
By 11 pm on the eve of the 2020 election, Michigan residents went to bed fully believing that with President Trump’s massive lead, there was no way Joe Biden could beat him, but on the day after the election, hundreds of thousands of votes mysteriously appeared in the wee hours of the morning. The votes were almost all for Joe Biden, and almost none were for President Trump. Leftist judges in Michigan refused to hear multiple lawsuits that were filed with claims of voter fraud. Spineless Republicans like Rep. Matt Hall, who sat on the House Oversight Committee, and Senator Ed McBroom, Chair of the Senate Oversight Committee, brushed the testimony of dozens of poll challengers and even election workers under the rug for the sake of unity with the Democrat minority and moved on to the next deal they needed to cut to stay in power.
Senator Jim Runstead was one of a handful of lawmakers willing to listen to Michigan citizens’ concerns about what everyone knew deep down was a fraudulent election.
On Tuesday, Senator Runstead took to Twitter to warn Michigan about the new bill that should infuriate every American, considering Michigan is a must-win state for President Trump in 2024.
Michigan Democrats are terrified Biden will implode and drag them down. So today they bet the bank and went all out to codify election fraud into state statute with SB 603.
Today, they smashed through this gigantic pile of election-fraud-enabling legislation today with Democrat-only votes.
SB603 Repeals the current law, which gives bipartisan county Boards of Canvassers the authority to investigate fraud and other wrongdoing, including ballot tampering during recounts.
With the passage of their (election-fraud-enabling) Bill, there will be no future route for requesting a recount if you believe there was fraud.
Under their corruption bill, candidates will be prohibited from requesting a recount if they suspect fraud, and is designed to stop investigations of election fraud by the Board of Canvassers.
This disgusting bill will now permit clerks to recount ballots even if seals are broken on ballot containers and was essentially written by the Secretary of State, who was reversed multiple times by our Supreme Court for her illegal election decisions.
The bill changes the standard for a candidate or party to petition for a recount of election results from alleging there has been a “mistake or fraud” in the process to now only permitting alleging there has been an “error.”
So even if the candidate or Party is absolutely convinced there was fraud, this cannot be alleged or investigated.
To boot, this Democrat’s bill makes it tougher to do a recount by doubling the recount petition fees and making it a felony for ‘interfering’ with a recount without any clear definition of what that means to open up more “LAWFARE.”
If passed as is, the language is changed to prohibit a recount, investigation, or audit of the conduct of an election when fraud is alleged to only a determination of the number of votes cast for one candidate or another or a ballot question.
Lastly, the bill says a recount could not assess the qualification of the voters participating in an election or the manner in which ballots are applied for or issued to voters.
Wow, isn’t that a doozy? If illegals, or dead people, or those not registered in Michigan are voting, we cannot “assess the qualification of those voters or the manner in which those ballots were applied for and issued to these voters.”
Yep, the Democrats have completely thrown off the mask with this terrible bill attempting to win at any cost-our Republic… be damned.
Watch MI Senator Jim Runstead (R) explain the shocking, pro-election fraud bill that was just passed by the Democrat Senate majority in Michigan:

This isn’t the first time Democrat lawmakers in Michigan, with zero regard for their constituents, have passed legislation that will make it easier to cheat in future elections. As long as Democrats have the majority (after 40 long years of being in the minority in the “blue” state of Michigan), there will be even more radical legislation passed, and most of it will not only shock Michigan residents but will shock the nation. The question is, will there be more brave Republicans like Senator Runstead and members of the MI House Freedom Caucus who are willing to fight back?
Just when you think Biden’s America can’t get any worse.
Jeff Bolle, a 60-year-old high school counselor and football coach from Milwaukee, lost his battle with bile duct cancer after his chemotherapy treatment was halted due to a critical shortage of the drug cisplatin, The Daily Mail reported.
His death was not just a loss to those who knew him but also a stark example of the dire consequences of the ongoing drug shortage crisis in the United States.
Jeff Bolle, a dedicated coach and educator, had been battling a grapefruit-sized tumor located near his liver, diagnosed in October 2022. Despite undergoing surgery and four rounds of chemotherapy, Bolle needed additional treatments to eliminate the remaining cancer cells. However, his treatment was cut short when his healthcare providers ran out of cisplatin, the chemotherapy drug critical to his treatment plan.
The shortage of cisplatin is part of a broader national crisis affecting a wide range of essential medications, including drugs for diabetes, infections, and other cancers.
A recent survey revealed alarming statistics: 72% of the nation’s 29 largest cancer centers reported a shortage of carboplatin, and 59% noted a cisplatin shortage. These shortages are severely impacting patient care, with hundreds of thousands of individuals unable to receive necessary treatments.
U.S. drug shortages have reached a peak with 323 medicines in short supply, marking the highest level since the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists started monitoring in 2001, according to Axios.
“During the first quarter of 2024, ASHP and our partner, the University of Utah Drug Information Service, tracked 323 active shortages. This is an all-time high, surpassing the previous record of 320 shortages in 2014,” the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (ASHP) said in a statement.
“All drug classes are vulnerable to shortages. Some of the most worrying shortages involve generic sterile injectable medications, including cancer chemotherapy drugs and emergency medications stored in hospital crash carts and procedural areas. Ongoing national shortages of therapies for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder also remain a serious challenge for clinicians and patients,” it added.
After platinum is mined, it is turned into cisplatin in India at Intas Pharmaceuticals, before it is filled and finished at FDA-approved sites in Europe and the US. It is in these stages of development that the sticking points resulting in shortages occurred.
Intas Pharmaceuticals has run into problems with the FDA over the years and was shuttered after a surprise inspection of one of its sprawling plants last year uncovered quality control issues.
Staff were also found to have thrown acid on key documents in an effort to obscure them from regulators. The manufacturing shutdown set off a supply shock in February.
The FDA has resorted to opening import channels with China to bring in the crucial drugs, a temporary fix.
Supplies of other drugs have been affected by similar supply chain issues, as well as natural disasters.

The Bahamas are mostly known as a resort or cruise destination, only 90 miles to the right of Miami. Not well known is that the Bahamas have become one of the key locations for Chinese Communist Party Adventurism in the Americas as China exploits a disinterested U.S. Government and State Department. When I was in the Bahamas in late 2019, I went out of my way to talk to locals and see what was on their mind. There were two common themes: The first was that the Chinese Communists were thugs. The second one was, where are the Americans? In late 2023 I spent a number of days in Panama with Michael Yon and Ann Vandersteel to understand the extent of Chinese mischief in Panama. Funny – asking a Panamanian on the street would get almost an identical response to the Bahamians five years earlier.
In January of this year, the State Department put out an alert that rattled the islands and peeled back the illusion of conch soup restaurants, carefree citizens, and peaceful resorts. The State Department Alert was a “Level II Alert” on increased violence and murders in the Bahamas. In the first 24 days of January 2024, 18 murders occurred. So what is going on? When a U.S. Government Inspector General was appointed for Ukraine, suddenly Haiti collapsed (again) into unprecedented violence. It was no coincidence. Haiti is an international focal point for money laundering and human trafficking and business picked up with a sudden higher-level scrutiny of Ukraine. Haiti is only a short boat ride a few hours from the Bahamas. The Bahamas has become ungoverned space and as violence grips the islands, the clear winner is obvious: China
A murder of a former Member of Parliament
The violence is now targeting members of the ruling elite of the Bahamas. On March 29, 2024, former member of Parliament, Don Saunders was gunned down while at a Restaurant in Gambier Village, nine miles to the west of the capitol city of Nassau and just above the international airport. After being shot, he was robbed of the keys to his car and the killers drove off in his car. Mr. Saunders was the deputy of the Free National Movement Party, the minority party in the Bahamian Parliament and the center right party. The FNM Party is the group most active and vocal in challenging the Chinese domination of the Island. This was the 35th homicide in the Bahamas in 2024.
This murder has rocked the Bahamas. The party stance of the FNM while Chinese interests dominate the large archipelago of islands, that has a population of just over 400,000, is hard to overlook. Gun ownership in the Bahamas is the highest in the Caribbean and owning a weapon is regulated but allowed. According to the Royal Bahama Police, 90% of the weapons confiscated come from Florida. As a branch and sequel to Fast and Furious in Mexico, the Biden Team seems to be enabling lawsuits by neighboring countries including the Bahamas against American gun makers as a proxy war against the American Second Amendment. The mass violence and collapse of society in Haiti is only a few hours by boat away from the southern end of the Bahamas, so guns and bad people from Haiti enabling the growing chaos in the Bahamas should not be overlooked.
China’s dominating presence
China is ever presentin theresort industry and infrastructure projects like thegift of a $30M grant to build a national stadium. The largesse of such gifts is overpowering to the small population of the Bahamas and the ruling Progressive Liberal Party. Huawei is the leading provider of information technology and networks to the Bahamas. Essentially the entire island is networked by Huawei up to the Internet Access Points at the undersea cable coming from Miami.
Where Huawei goes so does the Chinese capability to monitor, a job that the newly established Chinese Cyberspace Force will prioritize with their footprint in the Bahamas, a short undersea cable ride to the National Access Point of the Americas in downtown Miami. China is leading the multi-billion-dollar development of the Baha Mar Resort, which is years behind schedule, but also includes the British Hilton Colonial Hotel in downtown Nassau, across the street from the American Embassy. The Chinese overpowering presence and exclusion of Bahamian citizens from much of the infrastructure work does not endear the Chinese to much of the Bahamian population.
Where are the Americans?
While General Laura Richardson, the Commander of Southern Command in Miami has warned repeatedly of the Chinese control of the Bahamas, U.S. State Department has apparently missed the memo. There is no U.S. Ambassador to the Bahamas, only the lesser position of “Chargé D’Affaires” which translated means, America does not care enough about the Bahamas to have a real Ambassador. The Foreign Service Officer encumbering this neutered position is Jason Crosby who has a most unusual and atypical background, coming from the Diplomatic Security Service Office. Jason should know better and should 24/7 be driving China out of the Bahamas.
The U.S. Navy has a large and sensitive facility in the Bahamas used for submarine training and research. The ones and zeros of all the data from this facility transit the Huawei IT pipes as they travel to Miami. With the growing alarm over Volt Typhoon, the Chinese cyber-attacks on American critical infrastructure, creating a non-Chinese IT backbone for the Bahamas including the rip and replace of Huawei is intuitive. The average Bahamian gets it and asks, “where are the Americans?”. That is a great question and one more reason November 2024 is so important.
3 years ago, Sheriff Clarke of Wisconsin asked the Fractal team to review the Wisconsin voter rolls – and the result was the Fractal Election Management application finding anomalies that cannot be found with current relational database.
The Fractal team is not a political activist organization – we are high tech guys – who saw a problem and offered a solution.
The team, and the 26 state groups with whom we worked, recognized cleaning voter rolls was a losing proposition for 2024 – not enough time, too few phantoms taken off, massive government resistance, RNC inaction.
Cleaning voter rolls is a fundraising technique for national “non-partisan” voter integrity groups. It’s perfect – almost nobody is taken off, the problem remains, dopey donors write checks.
Fractal shows, in multiple videos on the Omega4America site – vast voter roll anomalies in place for over 20 years! Fractal showed thousands of voters at illegitimate addresses – FOR DECADES!
The Fractal ecosystem recognized delivering free, fair, transparent elections – is a fight against a multi-headed – hydra monster.
That monster includes contribution fraud groups and Dark Money NGOs operating under the cover of massive, interconnected financial networks – hidden in plain sight.
Harnessing the power of Fractal quantum technology, the team delivered the FEC Contribution System – identifying every contribution, from every person or group to every Federal level candidate – for the last 50 years.
With one click, there is total transparency – across 680,000,000 (six hundred eighty million) records.
For the first time, any contribution in the FEC database is visible, from a phone. State databases followed.
When we delivered the FEC database, we recognized many “contributions in kind” flowed in a river – below the surface with NGOs (non-governmental orgs), 501 Cs, grants, foundations – funding lawfare, voter drives, even making illegal contributions.
Working with insightful voter integrity groups in California, Wisconsin, Texas – we delivered the Fractal Dark Money Tracking System.
The system, as the short demo below shows, connects NGOs, 501Cs, hundreds of thousands of other organizations who are the central nervous system of the Left.
The first week the system was available, we hit paydirt in a major swing state.
Working with the election integrity team, we identified one of their largest “voter registration” organizations, is directly financed by a Chinese NGO.
Following that success, we downloaded the information for most of the major Leftist NGOs in the state, and within minutes we were able to make hundreds of connections.
The system connects an NGO Dark Money entity – through any common attribute – employee, director, money flow out, money flow in, common address, near address, phone, and other attributes.
The results are so interconnected, artificial intelligence queries were brought in to trace money across connections.
The intricacy of these networks is simply breathtaking.
In the video below, one click shows the second level connections from just one NGO.
The numbers of connections run into the hundreds of thousands – most delivering Leftist money to Leftist causes – in every state.
Because every fractal in the Fractal quantum system can communicate with every other fractal, the Fractal Election Management applications are fully integrated with the Dark Money system – immediately.
Teams using the Fractal Election Management app will now have access to the Dark Money Tracking System.
Several election integrity groups are actively using the system to challenge the tax status of some of these groups where their records show they are receiving money from illegitimate sources or in other cases where they are spending money on prohibited activities.
The video is of ONE organization – when you see how large its network is – just imagine what we are finding looking at hundreds of thousands of such Dark Money groups.

President Trump delivers a statement to America outside the courtroom in his latest NYC lawfare trial. Democrats and Joe Biden hope to take Trump down with bogus lawsuits before the 2024 election.
The following remarks on the Left’s lawfare are adapted from a keynote address I was asked to give at “A Seat at the Table,” an annual gathering of influential New Jersey conservatives, in Somerset on April 30th.
I’ve been asked to talk about how the Left has politicized and weaponized our justice system against both Donald Trump and ordinary Americans who still believe in fundamental Constitution protections, like the right to speak freely, the right to defend yourself, and perhaps most important of all, due process of law.
America is currently experiencing an all-out attack by the Left on its Constitution, institutions, and core identity. Nowadays, the Enemy is not a distant, overseas threat, like the Soviet Union was during the Cold War. It is a homegrown contagion, one that has infected virtually every aspect of modern American society.
In many ways, it has also infiltrated and subverted the Right, most of all the Republican Party, which remains anemic in the face of radical Left-wing opposition towards Donald Trump and the Make America Great Again Movement.
I have been down at the courthouse for pretty much every day since Alvin Bragg’s show trial started two weeks ago now against Donald Trump. To date, no Republican has appeared before the courthouse to protest this shameful miscarriage of justice, the worst of its kind ever in our history.
That is because never before has a major party leader in Joe Biden weaponized the justice system to persecute his biggest political adversary, who happens to be leading in every poll to become the next president, in Donald Trump. At least never in America – until now.
Very few Republicans have even condemned Bragg, Letitia James, and Judge Merchan in public statements through the media. Fewer still have gone one step further and acted – through subpoenas, investigations, congressional hearings, even filing an ethics complaint – against them.
To the extent any opposition has been demonstrated by the Right at all, it has largely been driven through the grassroots, via alternative news outlets like War Room and Laura Loomer’s on the ground investigative journalism. There is very little institutional support, in my judgment, by the Right or its mainstream outlets like Fox News and talk radio, against this mockery of the rule of law taking place in Alvin Bragg’s courtroom.
Meanwhile, President Trump has been forced off the campaign trail and into this kangaroo court. He has been gagged from being able to speak or criticize the proceedings – even though virtually every aspect about this trial is unprecedented and, if allowed to run apace, will do irreversible damage to the rule of law in this country.
Usually, for a criminal trial, the prosecution asserts some crime, and it is required to prove the elements of the crime in court before a jury of the defendants’ peers. This has not happened. First, the jury pool comes from uber liberal Manhattan, which voted for Biden over Trump 9 to 1. Second, to date Bragg’s prosecutors have not only failed to prove a crime, but they have also not even been able to come up with an alleged crime in the courtroom.
Does anyone here even know what is being prosecuted in the courthouse? The news media would have you think it’s some sort of election fraud based on a hush money payment about Stormy Daniels. But none of that has been true. Bragg and his prosecutors have not even made reference to a statute or law, criminal or civil, on which to ground his theory of fraud.
Indeed, Bragg has not said there was fraud in the first place. He won’t even go there, even though his prosecutors have created the impression in the minds of jurors, and the public, that somewhere, somehow, at some point fraud was committed. His prosecutors haven’t yet even talked about Stormy Daniels. They have been talking about Karen McDougall! Why? To create doubt and confusion in the minds of jurors – even though basic rules of evidence should prohibit the prosecution from doing just that!
Bragg hides the ball and thus leaves the rest of us scratching our heads to answer the who, what, when, where, and why the fraud occurred. His prosecutors can create rules on the fly because they receive absolutely no pushback. Not from any Republican in the New York State delegation. Not from any Republican in Congress; not from anyone, really, in a meaningful position of power, other than President Trump and his supporters.
The main reason for this is that hush money payments, under both federal and state law, no matter how salacious, are perfectly legal. Always has been, always will be. But let’s assume, for the sake of argument, that they are not lawful. In order to prove fraud, the prosecutor would still have to show a lie was committed against the public – and resulting damages.
Again, no fraud alleged. No statute cited. No crime asserted. They have repeatedly mentioned election fraud, but that’s a federal crime, and this is state court. Even so, however, the falsified documents that have so far been discussed on direct and cross examination were signed in 2017 and 2018, well after the 2016 presidential election took place! After Donald Trump had won already! So how, tell me, can election fraud take place after a presidential election?
Let’s just assume, to play devil’s advocate, that their theory of fraud somehow makes sense. We’ll give them the benefit of the doubt. What are the damages? To plead fraud, successfully, you must prove, beyond a reasonable doubt, which is the highest evidentiary standard (since this is after all, allegedly a criminal trial), that damages occurred.
It would seem, reading between the lines, that Alvin Bragg and Letitia James’ theory of damages is that President Trump won the 2016 election. They are still upset over that victory and have surmised that Trump winning constitutes damages because they are whiney and jealous crybabies.
What I just spelled out here, and there is much more to this case that I have omitted, is how the rule of law is being destroyed in real time. The prosecution accuses you of a crime you did not commit; they force you into court and browbeat the jury into believing that something must have happened – after all, why else would you be in court?
Never mind the fact that the facts don’t add up, nor is there any law on the books that can be cited for a crime. What is being done in Letitia James’ courtroom makes the Soviet show trials look legitimate by comparison.
If the rule of law is destroyed, if the Constitution no longer applies, we are a nation in ruin. Total anarchy and disorder. If you’ve been to Manhattan in recent months, you can see that anarchy playing out on the streets: our legitimate President is being politically persecuted, against his will, in a courthouse – at the behest of a rogue district attorney, attorney general, and prosecutor’s office that is ultimately receiving its marching orders from Joe Biden and Merrick Garland.
Riots at college campuses, including Columbia and NYU, which, by the way, are home to two of the most prestigious law schools in the country – in other words, the incubators of our future lawyers, judges, district attorneys, and politicians – have been ransacked by anti-American agitators with loyalties to other countries, not the United States or our Constitution.
In fact, the students – and their professors – hate everything this country stands for: they don’t understand the country, for one; but they also don’t even care to understand our traditions and values in the first place.
Instead, they demonize our history in one fell swoop. They call our Founding Fathers racist, and blanket label all white people – especially white men – as evil racists, who have committed the greatest injustices in human history. We have an obligation to take those words seriously.
One, because those are the values of our future leaders – and those values will continue to infiltrate every institution in our society – including how laws are written and applied – unless put to brutal and resounding stop. Two, because they really believe it – and words, beliefs, equate to real world action. Not just in the realm of politics, but in every aspect of public life.
Why have Americans allowed this to occur? It’s one thing to be conquered by an enemy. But it’s another thing entirely to be conquered by an enemy without doing anything to prevent it from happening. Conservatives in this country have in large part been kowtowed into silence. Many of them are deeply, deeply confused about their priorities and convictions.
Their inability to speak up in support of President Trump and recognize the much greater significance his political movement represents – for the future of this country, and Western civilization, more broadly – speaks to a total lack of conviction and failure to grasp the stark realities of our present crisis.
Anyone who fails to grasp these basic facts is patently unqualified for any position of authority in society today. Period. That includes everything from local school boards all the way up to President of the United States. It is not an exaggeration to say the fate of Western civilization hinges on the outcome of this November’s election.
What does Western civilization mean? It means preserving our Anglo-American heritage; it means preserving Christianity and the Church as the moral bedrock of our society. Morality must come from somewhere. If it doesn’t come from the Church or the Bible, it will relapse to where it came from in pre-civilized times: brute force.
This is how the Left operates now, and it permeates also how they govern, how they adjudicate criminal trials, and how they assemble on the streets.
Get in line or get rolled over. That axiom governs Left wing politics today. The Right must be a strong counterforce against that moral code. That means getting onto their level, and meeting them with an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. If they prosecute our leaders, we prosecute their leaders. If they impeach and indict our President, we must do the same.
Better yet, we should be several steps ahead of the curve – and browbeat them into submission, before they drive us – and our society – off the cliff. If we don’t act, at some point the government will come to your door and force you to house illegal aliens against your will, or be placed on a public registrar for owning a firearm, waving the American flag, or refusing a vaccine. That is already happening.
You won’t even get to own your property anymore, including your house. If you negotiated your mortgage with a lending company, you are now on the hook for potentially hundreds of millions of dollars – depending on how some vindictive attorney general or judge evaluates your assets if they don’t like your politics.
That might sound crazy, but that is exactly the precedent being set in New York by Letitia James. Unless you are prepared to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to hire lawyers to defend yourself in court, your property rights are no longer guaranteed. You don’t own what you think you possess if you have views that go against the Regime.
And silence isn’t good enough either, because in the Left’s moral framework, silence is violence. So, you can’t just remain silent anymore about your support for President Trump, that itself would be considered suspect. You must actively preach your religious devotion to Black Lives Matter and the cult of LGBTism – and your piety will be judged accordingly based on whether someone like Letitia James thinks you’re being sincere.
But if you’re white, no matter how liberal, you probably will be screwed, regardless of all the virtue signaling you proclaim – real or feigned. Since that is the price you must pay for the sins of your ancestors. For the woke Left, nothing short of a complete and total overthrow of Western society – our Constitutional government, rule of law, and every tradition we hold dear – will satisfy their jealous rage.
What is the solution to this madness? As a society, we must reclaim the conviction that comes with the moral certitude of knowing we’re right and our political enemies are wrong. That conviction ultimately traces its origins to God. Full stop.
But if we lack the conviction to stand up for our heritage – if we allow the Left to take down statues of men like Christopher Columbus and Thomas Jefferson with impunity and capitulate to the Left’s moral framing that our Constitutional form of government was founded by racist slaveholders, then we will have lost the game. If we believe, as they do, that the men who designed our Constitution were gravely immoral, what authority do we have to defend the fruits of their creation – property rights, due process of law, individual freedoms – which, no matter how noble, can never be defended against the injustice of their daily practices?
Even more relevant, if we cannot stand behind President Trump as he faces political persecution by a weaponized justice department in the courthouses, we will have abandoned every claim we have to preserve our country and our freedom.
At no other point in American history has the outcome of a presidential election been so pivotal for determining the fate of not just America, but the world. Not in 1980 at the height of the Cold War with Ronald Reagan; not in 1940 at the peak of World War II with Franklin Roosevelt; not even in 1860, at the outbreak of the Civil War, with Abraham Lincoln.
The silver lining of all this is that the momentum is behind Trump, and he is poised to win – in a big, big way this election cycle. We cannot accept defeat; victory is our only choice. We must take back our country from the Left that is cannibalizing it by the day with their policies and toxic creeds.
But even with Trump’s victory – and we still have a long way to go before securing that victory – our work will have only just begun. It is thus incumbent upon each and every one of us to continue this fight, day in and day out, knocking on doors, spreading the message, showing our support in public, vetting elected officials who truly align with our America First values.
That is the duty of every single one of us in this room – for that is the only way true justice will return in this country; not in the law courts, which have been sabotaged by radical Left wing judges and juries, but in the court of public opinion – where reasonable people still exist, which will once again elevate President Trump to his rightful place in the Oval Office this November. Only then will the rebirth of justice – and freedom – become a possibility again. And then we can begin the first steps of the arduous work needed to restore America back to its former greatness.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) and Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) will hold a press conference this morning to discuss Democrat Leader Hakeem Jeffries’s (D-NY) “endorsement” of Mike Johnson and how Johnson’s support from the Democrat party will affect a Motion to Vacate the chair and remove Johnson as Speaker.
Mike Johnson’s betrayal of Republican voters saved him the Speakership as his Democrat friends decided to come to his rescue.
Recall that Greene filed and announced a Motion to Vacate the chair and remove Mike Johnson as Speaker after the House passed a $1.2 trillion spending bill with more support from Democrats than Republicans. The vote – 286 to 134 – had 185 Democrats and 101 Republicans voting ‘yay.’ It was later passed by the Democrat-controlled Senate. The Gateway Pundit reported that Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) recently announced he will co-sponsor Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Motion to Vacate the Chair and remove Mike Johnson as Speaker of the House over his ongoing support for Ukraine as our southern border remains wide open. Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ) later added his name to the list of Republican co-sponsors following the passage of another $61 billion to Ukraine earlier this month.
Now that the GOP only has a one-vote majority in the House thanks to the selfish early resignations by Kevin McCarthy (RINO-CA), Ken Buck (RINO-CO), and Mike Gallagher (RINO-WI) along with the stupid ousting of George Santos (R-NY), Johnson needs only to appeal to the Democrats and overwhelming majority of RINOs within the Republican conference.
Marjorie Taylor Greene announced the press conference yesterday, slamming Johnson as “the Democrat speaker of the House.”

Thomas Massie also slammed Johnson as “the uniparty Speaker” and signaled they will further discuss their Motion to Vacate.

As The Gateway Pundit reported on Tuesday, House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), Democratic Whip Katherine Clark (D-MA), and Democratic Caucus Chair Pete Aguilar (D-CA), following a House Democratic Caucus Meeting, formally announced their collective decision to save their comrade and oppose Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s motion to vacate the chair, currently held by RINO Speaker Mike Johnson.
This comes after Johnson sold out to the Democrats' agenda and cut a deal with them in passing three bills to hand out $95 Billion in “foreign aid” to Ukraine, Israel, Gaza, and other non-U.S.-involved conflict zones around the world. Of the $95 Billion, $61 Billion was allocated for Ukraine.
The handout to Ukraine was sold to the American people as a “loan.” However, as The Gateway Pundit reported, the package Johnson announced Wednesday includes terms that will allow the President to cancel 50% of Ukraine’s debt after November 15, 2024, and the remaining 50% after January 1, 2024. No wonder Joe Biden came out “strongly” in support of the package, urging the House and Senate to pass it.
Nahla, the wife of noted terrorists Sami Al-Arian, is pictured at the pro-Hamas campus encampment at Columbia University this week.
On Tuesday night, CBS News New York reporter Ali Bauman tweeted that the wife of a known terrorist was protesting at Columbian University campus.
Ali Bauman, in a now-deleted post, reported that New York City Hall sources notified her that the wife of the known terrorist was seen at the Columbia University protests.
NYPD Deputy Commissioner of Intelligence and Counterterrorism Rebecca Weiner has clarified that the wife of a man convicted of terrorism, previously thought to be involved in last night’s protests, was not actually part of the events.
She explained that the woman was present on the Columbia campus last week and stated, “We have no evidence of any criminal wrongdoing on her part.”
The Gateway Pundit confirmed this report on Tuesday.
Nahla Al-Najar, the wife of deported terroristSami Al-Arian, was pictured at the protests.
Sami Al-Arian proudly tweeted out her picture at the Columbia University anti-Israel encampment on Friday April 26.
Sami Al-Arian was indicted in February 2003 on 17 counts under the Patriot Act. A jury acquitted him on 8 counts and deadlocked on the remaining 9 counts. He later struck a plea bargain and admitted to one of the remaining charges in exchange for being released and deported. He was deported to Turkey on February 4, 2015.
Al-Arian was accused of aiding terrorists. In February 2003, he was charged with racketeering for Palestine Islamic Jihad (PIJ).
Jabs linked to side effects such as ‘Alzheimer’s and ‘Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease’
Dr. Joseph Mercola, an expert on natural health remedies and avowed critic of the government-mandated COVID shots that were imposed on the American public during the pandemic, now is warning about the evidence of a link between those mRNA shots and dementia.
At his Mercola.com website, he discusses his research and research by others into the links, often devastating, that are being confirmed between the COVID shots that so many governments and corporations demanded citizens take, and some very bad health outcomes.
Among those is dementia, and related mental issues.
“According to mounting data, one of the more serious side effects of the COVID mRNA jabs appears to be dementia, and worse yet, this previously untransmissible disease may now be ‘contagious,’ transmissible by way of prions,” he warned.
“In my 2021 interview with Stephanie Seneff, Ph.D., she explained why she suspected the COVID shots may eventually result in an avalanche of neurological prion-based diseases such as Alzheimer’s. She also published a paper detailing those mechanisms in the May 10, 2021, issue of the International Journal of Vaccine Theory.”
He noted in that paper she wrote, “A paper published by J. Bart Classen (2021) proposed that the spike protein in the mRNA vaccines could cause prion-like diseases, in part through its ability to bind to many known proteins and induce their misfolding into potential prions. Idrees and Kumar (2021) have proposed that the spike protein’s S1 component is prone to act as a functional amyloid and form toxic aggregates … and can ultimately lead to neurodegeneration.”
Mercola explained, “The take-home from Seneff’s paper is that the COVID shots, offered to hundreds of millions of people, are instruction sets for your body to make a toxic protein that will eventually wind up concentrated in your spleen, from where prion-like protein instructions will be sent out, leading to neurodegenerative diseases.”
Mercola’s life work had included his wellness clinic in Illinois, through which he began exploring the world of natural medicine.
He’s worked with patients on ailments including rheumatoid arthritis, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, allergies, autism and ADD.
The medical industry pays him a perhaps back-handed compliment when it accuses him of spreading “disinformation” during the COVID pandemic because he expressed doubts about the mRNA treatments that were in some situations forced on unwilling recipients and his advocacy for alternative treatments.
Of course, many of those alternatives, condemned by the pharmaceutical-industrial complex during the pandemic, now are known to provide benefits.
Mercola’s article notes the evidence now confirms a side effect of the mRNA jobs “could be dementia, and the prions that cause it may be contagious.”
“Frameshifting, as we now know occurs in the COVID shots, can induce prion production and lead to neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD),” he explained.
His warning is some clinical trials and “observational studies” that suggest the safety of the shots “are biased,” and those conclusions “massively overstated.”
He said “prions” are “proteinaceous infectious particle” and are known to cause “Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in humans, bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE or ‘mad cow disease’) in cattle, and chronic wasting disease in deer and elk.”
Key characteristics include “the formation of holes in the brain giving it a sponge-like appearance, and failure to induce an inflammatory response.”
“In short, prions are infectious agents composed entirely of a protein material that can fold in multiple, structurally distinct ways, at least one of which is transmissible to other prion proteins, leading to a disease that is similar to viral infections but without nucleic acids,” he explained.
“According to the prion disease model, the infectious properties of prions are due to the ability of the abnormal protein to convert the normal version of the protein into the misfolded form, thereby setting off a chain reaction that progressively damages the nervous system,” he said.
He noted that on top of Seneff’s theory, there now is, from 2022, tech entrepreneur Sid Belzberg’s writings about the neurological side effects of the jabs.
His site, within months, had gotten 15,000 hits and gathered 60 reports from people who got the jab and suffered neurological deficits shortly thereafter, including six cases of diagnosed CJD.
Belzberg noted CJD normally affects one in a million.
“To get 6 cases you would need 6,000,000 hits to the site assuming everyone reports. The chances of getting 1 case in 15,000 hits is 1 in 66.”
And his report noted Dr. Kevin McCairn, a British neuroscientist, has suggested the those affected prions “are infectious and can be transmitted from one person to another.”
Mercola noted Dr. David Cartland has posted 13 scientific papers linking the COVID jabs to prion diseases and that he, too, expects an “epidemic” of prion problems.
Mercola noted a recent study in the journal Vaccine about the side effects of COBID jabs and “it confirms what I and many other alternative news sources have been saying all along, namely that the mRNA jabs are the most dangerous medical products to ever hit the market.”
Other known side effects include increased risk of myocarditis, pericarditis, blood clots and Guillain-Barre syndrome.
Mercola said, “Based on data from across the world, it’s beyond clear that the COVID shots are the most dangerous drugs ever deployed. If you already got one or more COVID jabs and are now reconsidering, you’d be wise to avoid all vaccines from here on, as you need to end the assault on your body. Even if you haven’t experienced any obvious side effects, your health may still be impacted long-term, so don’t take any more shots.”
If there already are side effects, “Two remedies shown to bind to and facilitate the removal of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein are hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin. I don’t know if these drugs will work on off-target proteins and nanolipid accumulation as well, but it probably wouldn’t hurt to try.”
NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg confirmed that Ukraine will become a member of NATO. This announcement was made during his visit to Kyiv to discuss the ongoing conflict and future support from the alliance with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
The NATO chief acknowledged delays in support that have had severe repercussions on the battlefield, emphasizing that although Ukraine has been outgunned, it is not too late for them to prevail with increased support on the way.
Stoltenberg revealed that following President Zelenskyy’s appeal at the recent NATO-Ukraine Council meeting, NATO members, including the United States, the UK, Germany, and the Netherlands, have pledged to intensify their support, with the US providing a new aid package worth over $60 billion, thanks to the Democrats and their comrade Mike Johnson, along with other RINOS.
The two leaders also discussed preparations for the upcoming NATO Summit in July, where plans for a greater NATO role in coordinating security assistance and training for Ukraine will be unveiled.
“I believe we also need a major, multi-year financial commitment to sustain our support. Moscow must understand: they cannot win. And they cannot wait us out,” Stoltenberg added.
Addressing Ukraine’s potential membership, Stoltenberg stated, “Ukraine’s rightful place is in NATO. Ukraine will become a member of NATO. The work we are undertaking now puts you on an irreversible path towards NATO membership, so that when the time is right, Ukraine can become a NATO member straightaway.”
While Ukraine’s ultimate NATO membership is seen as “inevitable,” the country currently faces challenges in meeting the full set of NATO membership criteria due to the ongoing conflict with Russia.
However, NATO and its members are actively engaged in discussions and negotiations to address these issues and potentially accelerate Ukraine’s path to membership. At the 2023 Vilnius summit, NATO decided that Ukraine could join the alliance without first completing a Membership Action Plan.
Earlier this month, Elon Musk cautioned that pushing for Ukraine’s NATO membership could lead the world towards a “nuclear apocalypse,” citing the 1983 film ‘The Day After’ as a grim reminder of the potential consequences.
Meanwhile, a Russian Security Council official warned last year that Ukraine’s admission into NATO could inevitably lead to a World War III scenario, echoing President Vladimir Putin’s warning against “nuclear blackmail” from the West.
Just last month, on March 2, 2024, Putin warned the West during his annual “The State of Russia” speech.
Obviously, the Biden regime ignored this warning.
Putin noted that while accusing Russia of plans to attack NATO allies in Europe, Western allies were “selecting targets for striking our territory” and “talking about the possibility of sending a NATO contingent to Ukraine.”
“We remember the fate of those who sent their troop contingents to the territory of our country,” the Russian leader said in an apparent allusion to the failed invasions by Napoleon and Hitler. “Now the consequences for the potential invaders will be far more tragic.”
In a two-hour speech before an audience of lawmakers and top officials, Putin cast Western leaders as reckless and irresponsible and declared that the West should keep in mind that “we also have the weapons that can strike targets on their territory, and what they are now suggesting and scaring the world with, all that raises the real threat of a nuclear conflict that will mean the destruction of our civilization.”
House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) on Tuesday launched an investigation into the Biden DOJ’s coordination with Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s politicized prosecution of President Trump.
Bragg’s top prosecutor Matthew Colangelo previously worked in the Justice Department (Biden appointee) and is a lifelong left-wing activist.
Mike Davis, a former law clerk for Justice Gorsuch, said the Biden Justice Department is engaging in a criminal conspiracy to violate Trump’s civil rights.
“The lawfare happening to President Trump across the country is coordinated by President Biden, who sent Matthew Colangelo to New York to be his henchman and ensure Trump would not receive a fair trial,” Mike Davis said.

Recall that Colangelo lied during his opening statement last week and claimed Trump “orchestrated a criminal scheme to corrupt the 2016 presidential election” when he paid porn star Stormy Daniels to keep quiet about their alleged affair.
Trump has denied the affair.
“The defendant, Donald Trump, orchestrated a criminal scheme to corrupt the 2016 presidential election. Then he covered up that criminal conspiracy by lying in his New York business records over and over and over again,” prosecutor Matthew Colangelo – a former top Biden DOJ appointee – told jurors last week, according to AP.
Chairman Jordan specifically called out Matthew Colangelo in his letter to US Attorney General Merrick Garland.
“The Committee on the Judiciary is conducting oversight of politically motivated prosecutions by state and local officials. Since last year, popularly elected prosecutors—who campaigned for office on the promise of prosecuting President Trump—engaged in an unprecedented abuse of prosecutorial authority: the indictment of a former President of the United States and current leading candidate for that office. New York County District Attorney (DANY) Alvin Bragg is engaged in one such politicized prosecution, which is being led in part by Matthew B. Colangelo, a former senior Justice Department official. Accordingly, given the perception that the Justice Department is assisting in Bragg’s politicized prosecution, we write to request information and documents related to Mr. Colangelo’s employment,” Jim Jordan wrote in a letter obtained by The Gateway Pundit.
Chairman Jordan said Colangelo’s recent employment history with the DOJ “demonstrates his obsession with investigating a person rather that prosecuting a crime.”
“Mr. Colangelo’s recent employment history demonstrates his obsession with investigating a person rather than prosecuting a crime. At the New York Attorney General’s Office, Mr. Colangelo ran investigations into President Trump, leading ‘a wave of state litigation against Trump administration policies.’ On January 20, 2021, the first day of the Biden Administration, Mr. Colangelo began serving as the Acting Associate Attorney General—the number three official in your department. Upon the confirmation of Associate Attorney General Vanita Gupta, Mr. Colangelo then served as the Principal Deputy Associate Attorney General. In December 2022, Bragg ‘beefed up [his] office’ by hiring Mr. Colangelo to fill the void left by the departure of politicized line prosecutors Mark Pomerantz and Carey Dunne. Bragg hired Mr. Colangelo to ‘jump-start’ his office’s investigation of President Trump, reportedly due to Mr. Colangelo’s ‘history of taking on Donald J. Trump and his family business.’ Mr. Colangelo is now a lead prosecutor in President Trump’s trial.
Jim Jordan requested documents and communications to be provided to his Committee by May 14:
1. All documents and communications for the period of January 2021 to December 2022 between or among Mr. Colangelo and any employee, agent, or representative of the New York County District Attorney’s Office, the Fulton County District Attorney’s Office, the New York Attorney General’s Office, or the Department of Justice’s Special Counsel’s Office, referring or relating to:
a. President Donald J. Trump;
b. The Trump Organization; or
c. Any other entity owned, controlled by, or associated with President Donald J. Trump;
2. All personnel files related to Mr. Colangelo’s hiring, employment, and termination at
the Department of Justice, including all documents and communications with the
Office of Presidential Personnel about Mr. Colangelo’s hiring;
3. All documents and communications between or among the Justice Department and the New York County District Attorney’s Office referring or relating to the prosecution of President Donald J. Trump;
4. All documents and communications referring or relating to Michael Cohen’s conviction in United States v. Cohen, No. 18-cr-602 (S.D.N.Y. 2018), including any decisional or pre-decisional memoranda relating to the case; and
5. All documents and communications referring or relating to Michael Cohen’s conviction in United States v. Cohen, No. 18-cr-850 (S.D.N.Y. 2018).
Internal data from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has uncovered that hundreds of thousands of migrants have been flown into over 45 U.S. cities through the Biden regime’s Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans (CHNV) mass parole program.
On January 5, 2023, the Biden regime unveiled a plan to provide ‘safe and orderly pathways to the United States’ for up to 30,000 individuals monthly from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela.
Known as the CHNV program—short for Processes for Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans—it grants eligible people from these nations who have a U.S. sponsor and pass a background check the opportunity to live and work in the U.S. legally for two years under ‘humanitarian parole.’
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that the Biden regime has been operating secret charter flights to transport illegal immigrants from foreign airports to various U.S. cities. This covert operation has been ongoing amidst an unprecedented influx of illegal aliens across the southern border.
The Center for Immigration Studies (CIS), a think tank known for advocating tighter immigration controls, reported that these obscure flights have facilitated the entry of approximately 320,000 illegal aliens into at least 43 different airports in the US. These figures were disclosed for the period ranging from January through December 2023.
In a recent Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit, lawyers for CBP refused to reveal details about the program, citing potential national security vulnerabilities, according to the Daily Mail.
The news outlet reported:
The administration first said it would not reveal which airports the undocumented aliens were transported, citing a ‘law enforcement exception’ in the refusal to hand over information.
But new information from CIS lawsuit reveals the locations were not disclosed due to fear ‘bad actors’ would inflict harm on public safety or the information would create law enforcement vulnerabilities.
CBP lawyers wrote that revealing the airports would ‘reveal information about the relative number of individuals arriving, and thus resources expended at particular airports.’
That would in turn reveal ‘operational vulnerabilities that could be exploited by bad actors altering their patterns of conduct, adopting new methods of operation, and taking other countermeasures.’
21 Republican-led states, spearheaded by Texas, filed a lawsuit against the Biden regime.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has implemented a new visa program under the guise of preventing unlawful border crossings between ports of entry, allowing up to 360,000 individuals annually from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela to be “paroled” into the United States for two years or more, with eligibility for work authorization, bypassing Congressional legislation.
The DHS’s parole authority is highly restricted by Congress, intended for use only in urgent humanitarian cases or for significant public benefit on a case-by-case basis. The new parole program, however, enables advance authorization for entry into the U.S. without any legal basis.
The established parole program does not comply with the legal requirements of being case-specific, addressing urgent humanitarian needs, or providing significant public benefit. Instead, it essentially creates a new visa program for hundreds of thousands of individuals without any legal right to enter the U.S., contradicting Congressional mandates.
In creating this unauthorized program, DHS neglected to follow the required notice-and-comment rulemaking process under the Administrative Procedure Act, opting instead for unilateral action to admit numerous individuals without legal entry rights.
Plaintiff States, including Texas, Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Florida, Idaho, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee, Utah, West Virginia, and Wyoming, claim substantial and irreparable harm due to DHS’s misuse of its parole authority, leading to the potential influx of hundreds of thousands more individuals into their jurisdictions.
DHS is accused of lacking the authority to admit over a third of a million illegal aliens into the U.S. annually as proposed by this program.
The document urges the court to prohibit, declare illegal, and nullify DHS’s unauthorized parole program.
However, U.S. District Court Judge Drew Tipton rejected the lawsuit on the grounds that the states failed to demonstrate any direct injury caused by the program.
The regime’s decision to allow such a significant number of individuals to enter the U.S. by air each month is seen as part of a broader strategy to “mitigate” the surging numbers of illegal aliens crossing the border, Reuters reported.
Now… Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin disclosed DHS data showing that a significant portion of these migrants, about 80%, were flown into Florida, targeting cities such as Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, Orlando, and Tampa. This data, obtained by the House Committee on Homeland Security through a DHS subpoena, shines a light on the breadth and scale of the operation.
During the eight-month period from January to August 2023, nearly 200,000 illegal immigrants were flown into the U.S., with the following cities receiving the highest numbers:
Miami, FL: 91,821
Ft. Lauderdale, FL: 60,461
New York City, NY: 14,827
Houston, TX: 7,923
Orlando, FL: 6,043
Los Angeles, CA: 3,271
Tampa, FL: 3,237
Dallas, TX: 2,256
San Francisco, CA: 2,052
Atlanta, GA: 1,796
In total, Florida received 161,562 out of the 199,986 illegal migrants flown into various states under a program initiated by the Biden regime, accounting for 80% of the total.

The subpoena response also indicated a staggering backlog of 1.6 million applicants waiting for DHS approval to fly to the U.S. under the parole program as of October 2023, according to Melugin.
DHS’s own response to the subpoena acknowledged that individuals paroled into the U.S. are, by definition, inadmissible, including those under CHNV processes.
Melugin added, CBP data confirms that at least 404,000 migrants have entered the U.S. via the CHNV program, with numbers from specific countries as follows:
154,000 Haitians
95,000 Venezuelans
84,000 Cubans
69,000 Nicaraguans

Senior Advisor to President Trump and Founder of America First Legal Stephen Miller weighed in and wrote, “Biden is flying illegals en masse into swing states before voting begins while, at the same time, his DOJ battles against voter ID and his party (successfully) opposes citizenship verification to vote. If this isn’t a criminal conspiracy to interfere in US elections, nothing is.”
Joe Hoft previously reported on how Illegals are being registered to vote in Florida. This is likely the case in many other states.
The path non-citizens who cross our border illegally take to get on voter rolls in Florida is as follows. There are some loopholes and practices that allow this to happen:
Cross the US border illegally
Get arrested and get immigration court or asylum application paperwork
Use immigration court or asylum application paperwork to get a Florida driver’s license, state ID (per s 322.08), or a social security number
Sign up for Florida food or medical assistance using the same immigration court or asylum paperwork.
An illegal will then receive a solicitation to register to vote in the mail from the government because they signed up for assistance. Just fill out and mail in the voter registration application provided with the solicitation letter (per interpretation of s 97.058). A solicitation letter from The Department of Children and Family Services to a person that appears to be a non-citizen based on a public records search is attached. The Spanish version is what was mailed.
Register to vote using your driver license or social security number. If you have neither, just check the box for no ID. No one checks to see if you are a citizen. They just check to see you checked the box on the application saying you are a citizen (per interpretation of s 98.045).
Vote. If you get caught plead plausible deniability or entrapment because you were solicited by the government to register to vote.
Here is the solicitation letter from Florida noted above:

A demonstration by pro-Hamas supporters at Columbia University turned violent on Tuesday after Columbia University authorized the city to deploy officers onto the campus amid escalating tensions.
As the situation intensified, the university administration issued a “shelter in place” directive to students, citing “heightened activity on the Morningside campus.” The alert advised students to remain indoors for their safety, warning that failure to comply could lead to disciplinary actions.
The NYPD issued a directive to all non-essential personnel, including students not involved in the protests, to vacate the campus area. “The operation at Columbia University has commenced,” announced an NYPD spokesperson.
“All credentialed media members are to meet with DCPI personnel at West 114th Street and Broadway. Anyone remaining in the area without authorization will be escorted from the premises.”
According to WKCR radio, NYPD officers used tear gas on pro-Hamas protesters at Columbia University.

‘A return to common sense and an overdue recognition that women’s well-being and safety matter’
The transgender agenda, the belief that men can simply say they are women and they are women, has hit headwinds with a new decision by the National Health Service in the United Kingdom.
A report in the Telegraph explains that the organization that serves the health care concerns of millions has proposed a definition change that states sex is a matter of biology.
The report noted that’s a “landmark shift against gender ideology.”
The change means, among other things, that men who claim to be women now are banned from women-only wards, and women have the right to request a female physician for intimate care.
The changes are coming as part of an update to the organization’s constitution that is required to be reviewed every 10 years, and last was done in 2015.
Women’s groups for years had expressed concern that the service had fallen victim to “gender ideology” promoters. It was only a few years ago that NHS guidance said transgender individuals could be placed in single-sex wards based on what they claimed to be.
But now the new constitution change states: “We are defining sex as biological sex.”
The women’s groups said the move is a “return to common sense and an overdue recognition that women’s wellbeing and safety matter.”
There have been battles in the United Kingdom, like in the United States, over the ideology that sex is changeable as a man or woman desires. However, being male or female is embedded in the human body down to the DNA level and doesn’t change, despite whatever chemicals may be administered or what mutilating surgeries done.
In the U.S., Joe Biden has adopted the agenda as one of the major goals for his term as president, and has been busy rewriting rules and regulations to promote his beliefs.
The report explained, “The proposed changes will also see discrimination requirements updated, with the word gender replaced with sex.”
And it noted, “The document also places a duty on health providers to use ‘clear terms’ to communicate and take account of biological differences. It follows pledges from ministers to stop NHS trusts using terms like ‘chestfeeding’ and ‘people who give birth.'”
Maya Forstater, chief executive of Sex Matters, told the Telegraph, “It is excellent news that the NHS constitution is being revised to put ‘sex’ in its rightful place – at the heart of principle 1, which sets out that the NHS must treat everyone with equality and respect for their human rights. The confusion between ‘sex’ and ‘gender’ in official policies like the NHS constitution is what has enabled women’s rights to be trampled over in the name of transgender identities.”
Just the News noted that the NHS constitution is what sets out the principles and values of the service, and rights of patients and staff.

Watch my interview with OAN.
Recently I went on One America News to talk about the World Economic Forum agenda.
At the annual WEF meeting in Davos this year, Klaus Scwhab said that they were the “trustees of the future”.
Meanwhile, another speaker at Davos wanted to label farming and fishing as “ecocide”.
Yet another speaker at the WEF talked about how it was important to have digital ID so that they could track who has been vaccinated.
All of this was going on, yet almost nothing about it on the mainstream media.
So I am speaking out about it.

Did you know that Bill Gates has donated a whopping $1.27 BILLION towards funding the UN Agenda 2030 “global goals”?
You see, the UN Agenda 2030 and the WEF agenda is pretty similar. But perhaps the Agenda 2030 is even more worrisome as this is an agreement that many countries have already signed on to!
A large sum of the money that was donated is going towards GLOBAL DIGITAL ID.
Have you ever wondered why you never heard anything about that in the mainstream media?
Well, Bill Gates has also donated $319 million to the mainstream media, including millions to the BBC.

Surging anti-Semitism at elite private universities has captured the media spotlight and Congressional attention, but escalating anti-Israel protests at our nation’s premiere public universities should be of even greater concern because they are taxpayer and government-supported.
Should Jewish children be afraid to walk freely on a college campus in America in 2024 over fears of being targeted by large groups of individuals calling for the genocide of Jews?
Imagine how it must feel to be a young Jewish student who is forced to walk through these protesters, many of them fellow students whom they sit next to in class, who are either fueled by their hatred for Jews or have no idea what they’re protesting, as they openly call for the elimination of the Jewish state of Israel.
Philip Klein of the National Review explains what it means when protesters are shouting the phrase “Free Palestine from the river to the sea” or “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” may seem innocuous to those unfamiliar with the geography of the region, but in reality, it represents calls for genocide against Jews.
Those of us who follow these issues closely have recoiled whenever we hear the phrase chanted at rallies around the world, or, as was the case last night, projected in massive letters on the library of my alma mater, George Washington University. We may take it for granted that everybody else understands why these words are so alarming. But it strikes me that, to the unacquainted, saying, “Free Palestine from the river to the sea” may seem like an innocent call for people to be free. How could that be objectionable?
Well, the issue is that “from the river to the sea” refers to the entire area in between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea — an area that encompasses not just territories captured by Israel in 1967 during the Six-Day War, but the entirety of Israel. Referring to that entire area as “Palestine” is not a call to end the occupation, to create a two-state solution, or even to return Israel to the borders that existed before 1967. It is a call for the elimination of Israel in its entirety. Israel is home to nearly half of the world’s Jewish population. The only way you can eliminate Israel and turn that whole area into Palestine is by killing millions of Jews.
There is simply no way of getting around the fact that anybody who utters the phrase “Free Palestine from the river to the sea” is advocating genocide.

Let’s examine how great life is for Jewish students at the top 18 colleges and universities in America for “The Best Jewish Life” in the final months of their 2024 academic year:
1) University of Maryland, College Park — 34/34
Pro-Palestinian/Hamas protesters at the Univ. of Maryland are camping out in College Park “for Gaza.” As part of their list of “demands” of the university, the protesters claim the university must denounce the “genocide” in Gaza but don’t ask the university to denounce the violent terror attacks on innocent Israelis by Hamas on Oct. 7, 2023, or the recent rocket and drone attacks by Iran against Israel. The protester’s list of so-called “demands” of the university also includes protecting “Black and brown” students as well as the ridiculous demand to have police removed from campus.

Protesters on the New York University campus are seen chanting, “From the river to the sea, Palestine will soon be free!” The genocidal chant, for anyone who doesn’t know, is calling for the elimination of the Jewish state, as it references the land between the Jordan River, on the border of eastern Israel, and the Mediterranean Sea to the west. It was first used in the 1960s by Syrian leader Hafez al-Assad, the father of the country’s current dictator, who said: “We shall only accept war and the restoration of the usurped land … to oust you, aggressors, and throw you into the sea for good.”

Hamas is a radical Islamist movement which aspires to impose Islamic law. Hamas is the Arabic acronym for “Islamic Resistance Movement” and was founded in 1987, during the early days of the Palestinian Intifada against the Israeli occupation of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. The fundamentalist Islamic group won the 2006 elections by an absolute majority and expelled Fatah, the organization that formed the founding core of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO). And since 2007 — two years after the Israeli withdrawal from Gaza — it has been the de facto ruler of the Gaza Strip.
The 2017 constitution of Hamas, the Iran-funded, unofficial government of the unofficial state of Palestine, states: “Hamas rejects any alternative to the full and complete liberation of Palestine, from the river to the sea.”

T-11) University of Michigan — 28.50/34
Recently, these flyers were reportedly being spread around the U of M campus:
The first flyer talks about the struggle for the liberation of Palestine and warns, “The Third Intifada is beginning,” and warns there is no more time for arguing with zionists or appealing to their liberal-fascist associates.”
The second flyer, which talks about revolutionaries in the United States, boldly proclaims: Freedom for Palestine means Death to America
This video was taken on the U of M campus two days ago. Pro-Hamas protesters shout, “We are all Palestinians! We are thousands, we are millions!” The students at U of M will be graduating this weekend.
On March 26, The ADL (Anti-Defamation League) wrote a strongly worded letter to the University of Michigan President Santa Ono, where they expressed their “deep concern in response to two troubling incidents reported to
ADL.” The left-leaning group, who gave over $14K to Joe Biden’s presidential campaign, wrote, “These episodes are just the latest in a string of unanswered incidents of antisemitism on the University of Michigan’s Ann Arbor campus, with Jewish students and faculty feeling harassed, threatened and fearful for their safety and wellbeing.”
ADL blasted the University of Michigan over reports of how students and their guests were prevented from celebrating their successful academic achievements of the Honors Convocation at Hill Auditorium by Anti-Israel protestors, calling the actions of the protestors “appalling” and accusing U of M of sitting back and allowing the open hostility toward the Jewish students to happen. “It is astonishing that hundreds of students and their parents were prevented from being honored and celebrated because of disturbances caused by anti-Israel hatred.” They continued, “We are trying to understand why the University appears to have allowed the demonstrators to shut down the event rather than having security remove those disrupting the event from the premises.”
The ADL asked U of M why one of their students, Salma Hamamy, who was recently given the Martin Luther King Jr. award, has not been arrested or charged for writing, “Until my last breath I will utter death to every single individual who
supports the Zionist state. Death and more. Death and worse!” on her Instagram account.
“Clearly, your Administration understands the severity of these threats as according to the email the Vice Provost for University Life sent on the evening of March 24, the University “increased security patrols on and around campus” in response to this threat. Yet it appears that no further action has been taken, and Ms. Hamamy is still part of the campus community. We assure you that calling for the death of Jews does not “depend on the context.” In their letter to the president, the ADL asked if Hamany’s “vile and inciting hate speech” has been referred “to the FBI for criminal investigation.
The ADL assured President Ono that the “two incidents are not outliers” and that students at U of M have “in some instances led by SAFE UMich – stormed the administration building, run for student government on platforms of intense anti-Zionism, and disrupted classes by marching through the Ross Business School multiple times. And those are just a few examples of very public behavior. We have not even discussed the personal attacks aimed
at Jewish students themselves.
The lax response by the university is in stark contrast to the proclamation of its credo, published on its website, to “build a safe and respectful community.” Students, parents, alumni, taxpayers, and concerned citizens have complained that their communications to the university have fallen on deaf ears.

The protesters draped a banner after taking over the building that read “Intifada,” which means uprising.
Columbia officials now advise members to avoid the main campus because of the protest.
According to CNN, about 200 people barricaded the doors, and about a dozen people are inside the building.

The University of Michigan heralded as the Ivy of the Midwest, is among the largest and most prestigious public universities to have effectively ceded control of its campus to an increasingly menacing mob. Demonstrators there, as at Columbia, NYU and other colleges, have set up a tent encampment on the Diag, the central intersection of the Ann Arbor campus.
A “surveillance network” that exposes antisemitism on social media shared images of propaganda that are reportedly being shared on the campus of the Univerisity of Michigan:
NOW: “Death to America”
A Convergence of Marxism and Radical Islam
Startling pamphlets distributed at the University of Michigan @UMich equate “Free Palestine” with calls for American genocide.
Only last month, following a blanket death threat to Israel-supporting students on campus and the defacement of the local Hillel chapter with swastikas, protestors disrupted and shut down the spring Honors convocation ceremony. Now facing rising tensions on campus and trying to head off the cancellation of the May 4 commencement in its iconic Big House stadium, UM just released its commencement policy:
“The University of Michigan does not attempt to prevent peaceful protests or other speech protected under the First Amendment. Many ceremonies will have a designated area for protests outside the venue. Our goal is to limit substantial disruption, ensure safety, and support a successful and celebratory event worthy of the achievements of our extraordinary graduates.”
After an initial wave of disruptive demonstrations and subsequent abrupt termination of the honors convocation, the UM administration disclosed that it was considering a “disruptive activity” policy that provided for the suspension and expulsion of students, which was found to violate the policy. UM’s leadership has yet to move forward with implementing any visible, substantive changes.
“We all must understand that, while protest is valued and protected, disruptions are not,” UM President Santo Ono wrote in a letter to the community following the shutdown of the honors convocation. “One group’s right to protest does not supersede the right of others to participate in a joyous event.”
“It was painful for everyone who had gathered, and especially so for members of our Jewish community,” Ono added.
There is no doubt a growing climate of fear for Jewish students on campus. Many news accounts have detailed the intimidation, harassment, and violent rhetoric spiraling out of control at UM. Just this year alone, two federal complaints have been filed against UM for violating the civil rights of Jewish students under Title VI protections. The Anti-Defamation League gave the university a failing grade for its unwillingness to enforce policy safeguarding the security and well-being of Jewish students on campus and in the classroom.
No Arrests For Hateful Hamamy…
Salma Hamamy, a senior and president of SAFE (Students Allied for Freedom & Equality, an offshoot of SJP – Students for Justice in Palestine) posted on her Instagram (which has since been deleted), “Until my last breath, I will utter death to every single individual who supports the Zionist State, Death and more. Death and worse.”
Hamamy appears to have deleted her post, but a post showing her leading students in a chant demanding the University of Michigan divest from Israel can be seen here, as the students shout at President Santa Ono:

According to a top official at U of M, Salma Hamamy has not been investigated for hate crimes by the FBI. The university has not revoked the radical student’s Martin Luther King award, and she is still enrolled as a student at U of M. To date, Ms. Hamamy has not been arrested for hate speech.
“Ono, Ono, you can’t hide! You are funding genocide!” the protesters chant as they fill the hallways of a University of Michigan building.
The University of Michigan is among the top five public universities with the largest Jewish enrollments, with an estimated 6,500 Jewish students, or nearly 15 percent of its total undergrad and graduate population. Those students come not just from Michigan but from all over the country, seeking the reputed educational and career cache of this top-tier university.
Several of its buildings, its world-class medical center, cardiovascular center, and academic departments are emblazoned with the names of Jewish alum and donors from suburban Detroit and elsewhere across the nation.
Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning
Regarded as the country’s foremost public research institution, the university is also among the leading recipients of federal grant monies. According to a 2022 recap, the University reports it was ranked No.1 in research volume among US public universities for 11 consecutive years. The total value of UM research expenditures exceeded $1.86 billion in Fiscal Year 2023, with more than $1 billion or 56% of its total research volume coming from the federal government, its single largest sponsor of this activity.
The university’s operations as a public state university are also bankrolled to the tune of $357 million by Michigan taxpayers.
Boasting the country’s second-largest alumni network amongst all public and private universities, UM’s endowment was valued at $17.9 billion as of June 30, 2023, ranking it third among all public universities.
The university’s largest single donor is New York real estate magnate Stephen Ross, founder and chair of Related Companies. A graduate of the U of M’s undergraduate business school, which now bears his name, the billionaire has given, in aggregate, close to half a billion dollars. Unlike his heavy-hitting counterparts at other colleges and universities engulfed in anti-Semitic furor, Ross has yet to publicly speak out and demand the university take decisive action to check the spiraling Jew-hatred on campus.

Just days ago, Robert Kraft, owner of the New England Patriots and a graduate of Columbia, announced that he is withholding his giving to Columbia until the climate there is safe for Jewish students.
Former Columbia Univestity donor and New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft.
Kraft pulled support for his alma mater because of the antisemitic violence and protests on campus, wrote in the newspaper that the focus of the demonstrations should shed light on what professors have taught those students.
“Today, the attention and visuals surrounding the hateful protests taking place on Columbia’s campus have been focused on the students, but the students have been taught and empowered by faculty more focused on politics than they are on education,” Kraft wrote.
“These are not the professors I had who exemplified the fundamental principles underpinning the mission of higher education in the United States.”
He added, “I do not recognize my alma mater.”
Kraft wrote to his astonishment over the signs on campus which read, “Go Back to Poland,” and chants of “Kill all the Jews” and “October 7th 10,000 more times.”
“The Columbia I loved is no longer a place I know,” he added in the New York Post.
Similarly, hedge fund billionaire Bill Ackman withdrew his support from his alma mater, Harvard University, in the wake of anti-Israel and anti-Semitic protests on campus.

Ross’s silence is even more notable because his giving far eclipses the donations of his peers and because he has been involved in Jewish philanthropy. Ross is also the owner of the Miami Dolphins and is the nephew of the late Max Fischer, a Detroit industrialist and icon in the Michigan Jewish community.
Recently, protestors entered the eponymously named Ross School of Business, disrupting classes and making it impossible for students to concentrate on their lectures. No action has been taken against the disrupters to date, even though one professor had to cancel class.
The University of Michigan is governed by its Board of Regents, 3 of whom are Jewish – Ron Weiser, Jordan Acker, and Mark Bernstein. None of them has been vociferously outspoken against the violent rhetoric and militant anti-Semitism on campus and in the classroom.

In March, the CSG (Central Student Government) elected “Shut It Down” on a BDS platform to a majority position. Shut It Down professes to “take decisive action to disrupt the status quo.” They also profess that “we will halt CSG activity and funding disbursal until the University of Michigan divests (from Israel). We will Shut It Down!”
Watch the video of small children joining in the hateful protest against Israel on the University of Michigan campus. A young girl can be seen chanting, “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free!” into a megaphone.
Given UM’s status as the nation’s top-government-funded public research institution and its tolerance of an alarmingly hostile and hate-inciting environment on campus, the actions, or lack thereof, of its administration warrant Congressional scrutiny. Congress needs to haul in the university’s leadership team and hold their feet to the fires of anti-semitism they are fanning by failing to reassert authority over the campus.
The U of M Hillel Rabbi David Rosen has written a letter to the Jewish U of M students after he went to administration and asked for a large “Infitata” banner calling for violence against Jews that is hanging from one of the buildings on campus. U of M officials refused to remove it.
From the U of M Hillel rabbi:
Dear Jewish Wolverines,
I hope that everyone has had an inspirational start to Passover. On campus, Hillel supported more than 1,000 students participating in seders – some at our building and ones students hosted in their apartments. As we come out of the first days of Passover, I wanted to send you an update about where things are on campus.
Like on many campuses, there’s an encampment of about 20 tents on the Diag. Blocking one of the entrances to the Diag is a giant banner that reads “LONG LIVE THE INTIFADA”.
As you may know, the Intifada was a violent uprising that included terrorists bombing buses, pizza parlors, and Passover Seders. Before Passover began, I told the University that a sign calling for violence against Jews has no place on campus and must be removed immediately. The banner remains. And it’s more than this sign: students have consistently been sharing with us their concern about language used on signs and in chants that call for violence against Jews. This is not about free speech. This is intimidation and harassment.
I would hope that such hate would not be tolerated anywhere, especially at the University of Michigan — a place of learning and free inquiry open to all and funded by taxpayers from across the state. Make no mistake: this is dangerous language calling for violence. As we discussed at our Seder tables earlier this week, the Jewish people have endured so much more over the millennia. But when we sense a canary in the coal mine, we know that we must act. Messages of hate must not be tolerated. The University must intervene, enforce its own policies, and take down signs that call for violence.
Finals have begun. Finals are stressful enough in a typical year, and this has been far from a typical year. If you are a parent, friend, or loved one of a Jewish student at Michigan, call them, check in, ask how they are doing, listen, and let them know that they are loved. Let them know that Hillel is here for them. Our building remains open for those looking for a safe and quiet place to study, schmooze, eat Kosher for Passover snacks, and get support. And tomorrow, we will be hosting our final Shabbat of the semester, yet another time for the community to come together, proud to be Jewish.
There is a long, proud history of Jewish students at the University of Michigan. For nearly 100 years Michigan Hillel has been here to cultivate and support a thriving Jewish community. We are determined that Michigan must remain a great place to be a Jewish student.
Go blue.
This piece was co-written by me and two of my very dear Jewish friends, Linda Brenners and Sue Kahn. A special thank you to both of them, who have been friends of mine for over a decade and, most of all, friends of Israel forever.

The World Health Organization is urging the U.S. and 193 other governments to commit next month to a new global treaty to prevent and manage future pandemics. Current estimates suggest over $31 billion per year will be needed to fund its obligations, a cost most lower income countries cannot afford. But that isn’t the only reason to oppose it. Validating this treaty is a vote for the disastrous policies of the Covid years. Rather than taking time for deep reflection and serious reform, those pushing the pandemic treaty are set on ignoring and institutionalizing the WHO’s mistakes.
From the Spring of 2020, many experts warned that the panic begun in Wuhan’s unprecedented lockdown would cause wide-ranging damage—and indeed they did. School closures deprived a generation of children—especially poor children—of access to basic education. Businesses were shuttered. Vaccine and mask mandates made public health an authoritarian exercise of power devoid of science. Border quarantines promulgated the idea that the rest of the world is unclean.
But few experts care to seriously dissect these errors. How many schools of public health—in America or Europe—held serious debates during the Covid response, or since? Very few.
Opposing the treaty is a signal to the WHO and global health community that they cannot whitewash these mistakes. Next time, we need to ensure a better balance between trade-offs, evidence-based policies, and democratic rights. Such a view seeks to restore the WHO’s own definition of health into pandemic response: “a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.”
Yet the governing philosophy of the WHO emergency program is the exact opposite. Its leaders chastise the world to “move faster’ and “do more.” Bill Gates, the agency’s single largest private donor, is convinced lockdown benefits vastly outweighed their harms. He’s wrong.
Read through the current draft of the treaty itself and you will find a whole section dedicated to “fighting misinformation.” There is no section focused on preventing harm. Those speaking out about these dangers have been subjected to harsh censorship. Once esteemed professionals were summarily fired for describing the reality of what was happening. The authors of the anti-lockdown Great Barrington Declaration—professors at Stanford, Harvard, and Oxford—were subject to a “devastating takedown” at the hands of Dr. Fauci and top scientific bureaucrats at the National Institutes of Health and the WHO.
Public health came to resemble the police, and those pushing the new WHO treaty want to go further. It calls for more mandates, more vaccine passports, and more censorship—our new global health “Lockdown Doctrine.”
Proponents of the treaty would have you believe that it is merely a tool that countries can use to guide future pandemic response efforts, that it cannot trump national sovereignty or be used to force failed policies on entire populations. But the lifeblood of international treaties is not in the dried ink. Treaties are constantly ignored. Nonetheless, they do one thing very well: they create an illusion of consensus, signaling to those with power and influence. These priorities are then filtered down into national laws and plans where they can do tremendous damage.
How can national governments seriously endorse an international agreement when their own domestic Covid evaluations are ongoing? The UK Covid Inquiry is set to end in 2026. Australia’s commission is ongoing. Italy and Ireland have only recently announced them. Most have none planned.
The rush needs to slow down. The U.S. should avoid signing until a thorough, bipartisan review of WHO’s Covid pandemic management is accomplished. Until then, a vote for a pandemic treaty is a vote against real, positive change.

On Tuesday, House Speaker Mike Johnson announced he is expanding the investigations into antisemitism exploding on college campuses across several committees.
Johnson said at a Tuesday press conference, “Antisemitism is a virus, and because the administration and woke university presidents aren’t stepping in, we’re seeing it spread.”
He added that “nearly every committee here has a role to play in these efforts to stop the madness that has ensued.”
Since January, House Education and the Workforce Congresswoman Chair Virginia Foxx (R-N.C.) has launched multiple antisemitism investigations into Rutgers University, the University of California, Berkeley, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Columbia University, the University of Pennsylvania, and Harvard University.
At the press conference, Foxx announced an additional antisemitism hearing scheduled for next month to include Yale, UCLA, and the University of Michigan.
Foxx did not hold back when addressing the disgusting weakness shown by college administrators across the county by allowing radicals to take over their campuses.
“We have a clear message for mealy-mouthed, spineless college leaders: Congress will not tolerate your dereliction of your duty to your Jewish students,” Foxx said.
Adding, “American universities are officially put on notice that we have come to take our universities back…College is not a park for play-acting juveniles or a battleground for radical activists. Everyone affiliated with these universities will receive a healthy dose of reality – actions have consequences.”

“We have a clear message for mealy-mouthed, spineless college leaders: Congress will not tolerate your dereliction of your duty to your Jewish students.”

A Columbia University protest leader was caught in a cycle of contradictions when reporters questioned the logic behind the protestors’ demands for food and water after they had unlawfully taken over Hamilton Hall.
The protest escalated dramatically overnight, with the group smashing windows and forcefully entering the building. The Hamas supporters fortified their position by barricading doors and covering windows, effectively taking control of the academic building.
The occupation began around half past midnight following a standoff on the university’s academic lawn, where protesters had set up roughly 120 tents. The move to storm Hamilton Hall, a central location used by university deans, came shortly after the university administration took action to suspend those refusing to dismantle their encampment.
A Columbia facilities worker recounted the harrowing experience of being held against his will by the protesters. “They held me hostage,” the worker disclosed to the Columbia Spectator after being released.
The protesters have laid out clear demands: for Columbia University to divest from Israel, increase transparency regarding their financial affiliations, and grant amnesty to all students involved in the prolonged demonstrations, Fox News reported.
Protestors are now demanding that the university provide them with food and water, essential supplies they were cut off from due to their own barricades. They argue that their basic needs should be met despite their aggressive actions.
A reporter challenged the protest leader, asking why the university should cater to the needs of those who unlawfully occupied its property.
“Why should the university be obligated to provide food to people who’ve taken over a building?” the reporter asked.
The leader’s response was a mix of entitlement and confusion, first asserting an obligation due to paid meal plans, then scrambling to clarify the nature of their requests for “basic humanitarian aid.”
The conversation became increasingly muddled as the reporter pointed out the self-inflicted nature of the situation, with the protest leader contradicting earlier statements by saying they were not asking for direct provision but rather non-interference with outside aid – a commitment they sought from the university.
Protest Leader: “Well, first of all, we’re saying that they’re obligated to provide food to students who pay for a meal plan here.”
Reporter: “But you mentioned that there was a request that food and water be brought in.”
Protest Leader: “Unless I misunderstood. To allow it to be brought in. I guess it’s ultimately a question of what community and obligation Columbia feels it has to its students. Do you want students to die of dehydration and starvation or get severely ill, even if they disagree with you? If the answer is no, then you should allow basic… I mean, it’s crazy to say because we’re on an Ivy League campus, but this is basic humanitarian aid we’re asking for. Could people please have a glass of water?”
Reporter: “Don’t they have water? But they did put themselves in that very deliberately in that situation and in that position. So it seems like you’re saying, ‘We want to be revolutionaries. We want to take up this building. Now, would you please bring us food and water?'”
Protest Leader: “Nobody’s asking them to bring anything. We’re asking them to not violently stop us from bringing in basic humanitarian aid.”
As the dialogue continued, the leader’s position became less clear, with them admitting uncertainty over whether attempts to deliver food had been made or prevented, revealing cracks in the protesters’ front.
Second reporter: They’re stopping the delivery of food?
Protest Leader: We are looking for a commitment from them that they will not stop it.
Second reporter: But they haven’t stopped it yet?
Protest Leader: Well… I don’t… I am not… I don’t know to what extent it has been attempted, but we’re looking for a commitment.
Investigative reporter Jordan Schachtel was able to identify the Pro-Hamas spokesperson.
“I did a quick search and found that this lady, who refused to reveal her name, is named Johannah King-Slutzky. She is a paid instructor & PhD candidate at Columbia studying “theories of the imagination & poetry as interpreted through a Marxian lens.” No, I’m not making this up,” Schachtel wrote on X.

New Gen 47 PAC, a new political action committee, seeks to use popular culture and is in talks with A-list celebrities to focus on turning out low-propensity voters in swing states and purple suburban counties for President Trump and conservative candidates this November.
The group was founded by LJ Fino, President of First Class Records, and PR consultant Alex Fahmy. It can be recalled that LJ Fino had a hand in producing hit #1 songs, such as “Justice for All” featuring Donald Trump and the J6 Choir and Kari Lake’s “81 Million Votes my Ass,” as Mailman Media’s Head of Recorded Music Operations. Fino’s First Class Records label has also produced music by Lara Trump.
Under New Gen 47, Fino and Fahmy plan to hold concerts and music events with famous musicians to rally voters for Donald Trump and other conservatives in November.
Their first event will be held sometime in June, and the group will hold more concert-style events with A-list entertainers, soon to be announced. The Gateway Pundit has knowledge of some of the entertainers New Gen 47 is currently in talks with, and it’s something to look forward to!
Fino told The Gateway Pundit, “NEW GEN 47 is a Hybrid PAC that combines popular culture with politics. We will be focusing on reminding the electorate which Presidential candidate benefits all Americans from all walks of life, and that candidate is President Donald J. Trump.”
He continued, “President Trump signed the Bi-Partisan Music Modernization Act into law, which helped songwriters, musicians, performers, and creatives receive fair compensation for their work in the arts and changed copyright law to better reflect the digital era of music. It is incredibly hard for me to fathom why people continue to vote for a candidate who has repeatedly lied and made racist remarks throughout his long career in politics and signed the 1994 Crime Bill, which unfairly treated minority individuals and resulted in the mass incarceration of a group of Americans whom President Biden and his party claim to support.”
“President Trump also signed legislation in 2018 that provided more than 360 million dollars in funding to Historically Black Colleges and Universities as part of his efforts to expand opportunities for minorities in higher education,” Fino added.
“You can ask yourself the age-old question, ‘Are you better off today than you were four years ago?’ and no one can genuinely say ‘Yes,’ with the exception of Hunter Biden.”
co-founder Alex Fahmy had similar comments, telling The Gateway Pundit, “Over 60% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck thanks to Joe Biden’s ‘Bidenomics.’ This election is between putting America First with President Trump or continuing to put America Last with Joe Biden.”
“Joe Biden is rolling out the red carpet for illegal immigrants, and people are waking up to it. Our tax dollars are paying for visa gift cards, plane tickets, free healthcare, and housing for illegal immigrants.”
Welcome to NEW GEN 47, where the pulse of the future beats with the rhythm of change.
We’re not just a Hybrid PAC; we’re a movement fueled by the energy of a new generation. We’re on a mission to ignite a revolution in politics—one that resonates with the youth of today.
Our goal is crystal clear: to secure another term for Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election, pitting his vision against the status quo. But we’re not just about politics as usual. We’re about rewriting the script, infusing pop culture into the MAGA Movement, and embracing the diverse voices that make up our nation.
At NEW GEN 47, we believe that politicians are the new celebrities, and by harnessing the power of pop culture, we’re opening doors to Independent and disengaged voters like never before. Our mission is multi-faceted: to educate, energize, and empower young voters aged 18-39, particularly in Florida and Key Swing States. We’re not just registering voters; we’re sparking conversations, building bridges, and amplifying President Trump’s agenda through social media and direct outreach.
But we can’t do it alone. We’re forging partnerships with community leaders, Trump-endorsed politicians and candidates, educational institutions, celebrities, influencers, and businesses—because change is a team sport, and together, we’re unstoppable.
So, if you’re ready to be part of something bigger than politics as usual, if you’re ready to make your voice heard and your vote count, then join us at NEW GEN 47. Together, let’s shape the future, one election at a time.
You can support New Gen 47’s mission to turn out voters for President Trump here!
We are currently seeing a shift in pop culture, with former and current Hollywood stars waking up to the reality of the Democrat party. While Biden tries to bribe porn creators on Only Fans to push his propaganda, more and more well-known actors, comedians, and musicians are realizing Trump is the answer to this country’s problems.
As The Gateway Pundit recently reported, comic legend Jerry Seinfeld calls out the joy-killers in the far-left for ruining comedy with political correctness.
It can be recalled that Lil Wayne also endorsed Trump for President in 2020, and with the way things are going in Biden’s America, he’s likely not changed his mind!
Last week, rapper Afroman came out with a parody of his 2000 hit song “Because I Got High.” His incredible new song, “Hunter Got High,” produced by Baste Records, makes fun of Hunter Biden for his drug usage, scandalous laptop, d*ck pics, prostitutes, and foreign business dealings with China and Ukraine. Listen here:
“Hollywood is melting right now,” said Fahmy, pointing to Biden's recent New York fundraiser with former Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, Stephen Colbert, Lizzo, and other Hollywood stars, which raised a record $25 million, which President Trump shattered at his fundraiser about a week later, setting a new $50 million record.

Last month the Third US Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that mail-in ballots with no dates cannot be counted by Pennsylvania election officials.
Democrats use this tactic frequently to add more ballots to their candidate’s totals following election day.
“Mailed ballots that arrive on time but in envelopes without dates handwritten by Pennsylvania voters or with incorrect dates should not be counted, a three-judge panel of the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled Wednesday. Their 2-1 decision strikes down a lower court ruling.” NPR reported last month.
“The main legal issue surrounding what are often called “undated ballots” is whether not tallying them violates the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which says a person’s right to vote cannot be denied for “an error or omission” that is “not material” in determining voting eligibility.” NPR reported.
Democrat lawyers requested an en banc review (a decision from the court’s entire slate of judges) and the appeals court ruled against them.
In a 9-4 vote, the Third Circuit Court of Appeals on Tuesday denied a request for en banc review to reconsider whether the date requirement for mail-in ballots is enforceable in Pennsylvania.
Tuesday’s decision will likely send the fight to the US Supreme Court.
JUST IN: On a 9-4 vote, 3rd Circuit denies en banc review in PA case about whether date requirement for absentee ballots is enforceable Doc: https://t.co/IDYaXq2Wwg 3rd Cir Panel held 2-1 last month it is enforceable under federal law https://t.co/3RI6p96Nuo
The Democrats used mail-in ballots to steal Pennsylvania for Joe Biden in 2020.
Recall that in 2020 the Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruled that mail-in/ballots with no dates or handwritten names/addresses on the outer envelopes can be counted.
In 2020 Trump’s legal team argued that the General Assembly set forth in the Election Code the requirements for how a qualified elector can cast a mail-in or absentee ballot.
A voter is required to “fill out, date, and sign” the declaration on the outside envelope the Trump campaign argued (citing 25 P.S. §§ 3146.6(a) and 3150.16(a)).
The Trump campaign argued that the Pennsylvania Supreme Court has repeatedly ruled that the requirements of the sections of Election Code impose mandatory obligations that the ballots cast falling short of these requirements cannot be counted.
The Philadelphia Board actually argued that the Election Code set forth by the General Assembly does not require them to set aside “timely-filed ballots” for “merely missing handwritten names, street addresses, and/or dates on the signed voter declaration.”
The Pennsylvania Supreme Court shot down the Trump campaign’s argument and said voters failing to fill out their name/address and date on the envelope is just a “technical violation” of the Election Code and does not “warrant the wholesale disenfranchisement of thousands of Pennsylvania voters.”
In October 2020, the US Supreme Court declined to block a Pennsylvania state court ruling that allowed mail-in ballots to be counted even if they arrive days after Election Day.

Here we go.
The Biden Regime is considering ‘welcoming’ so-called ‘refugees’ from Gaza into the United States.
According to internal federal documents obtained by CBS News, the Biden Regime is considering resettling Palestinians who have family members in the US.
Egypt doesn’t even want to take in refugees from Gaza!
The US will work with Egypt to resettle Palestinian refugees who have escaped there.
The Biden administration is considering bringing certain Palestinians to the U.S. as refugees, a move that would offer a permanent safe haven to some of those fleeing war-torn Gaza, according to internal federal government documents obtained by CBS News.
In recent weeks, the documents show, senior officials across several federal U.S. agencies have discussed the practicality of different options to resettle Palestinians from Gaza who have immediate family members who are American citizens or permanent residents.
One of those proposals involves using the decades-old United States Refugee Admissions Program to welcome Palestinians with U.S. ties who have managed to escape Gaza and enter neighboring Egypt, according to the inter-agency planning documents.
Top U.S. officials have also discussed getting additional Palestinians out of Gaza and processing them as refugees if they have American relatives, the documents show. The plans would require coordination with Egypt, which has so far refused to welcome large numbers of people from Gaza.
This is as Hamas supporters are violently taking over universities and demanding colleges stop doing business with companies with ties to Israel.
As TGP contributor Ben Wetmore reported last week, part of the $9 billion in relief being sent to the Palestinians of the Gaza Strip, claims a former Congressman who sat for years on the Foreign Affairs Committee, is secret funding for massive Palestinian resettlement in America and Canada.
Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ) last week said that the billions being sent to Gaza are suspicious in that the funds seem disconnected from the reality of a true humanitarian mission. The funds are legally worded in such a way as to give the Biden Regime the ability to do whatever it wants with the money.
I’m pouring through the pages of the three supplemental funding bills. Don’t buy what they are selling. Came across this on page 11:
‘‘International Disaster Assistance’’, $5,655,000,000, to remain available until expended, to address humanitarian needs, and
‘‘Migration and… pic.twitter.com/lhkoXVuZWp
As TGP’s Ben Wetmore noted, Congressman Steve Stockman said the Biden Regime and Deep State are planning a massive resettlement of Palestinians to the West.
“The $9 billion in relief aid wasn’t meant to actually help the Palestinians who need it,” Stockman said. “They structured it as ‘humanitarian aid’ because legally, that definition is so broad that they can repurpose the aid however they want. It’s a classic Congressional con game with this funding. It’s part of the billions and trillions spent every year by the deep state to accomplish its goals, and most of it is right out in the open.”
“They are going to use this money to resettle Palestinians in America, using this pier, the same way the militant left used Muslim refugees from Syria to colonize Europe.”
Recently, CPAC was held in Budapest, Hungary, and among the many prestigious speakers, one took the stage by storm. Eva Vlaardingerbroek, known for her work during the Dutch farmer protest, declared the Great Replacement conspiracy a REALITY — to the cheers and applause of an approving crowd. Most of the world is waking up to this fact — so why does the establishment still treat it as an evil and harmful conspiracy theory?
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu responded strongly to reports that the International Criminal Court (ICC) may soon issue arrest warrants for him and other senior officials.
The ICC, based in The Hague, is said to be nearing the decision to issue warrants for Netanyahu and other high-ranking figures in the Israeli government. The allegations are tied to events that took place during the Israeli-Hamas conflict.
Despite Israel’s non-membership and non-recognition of the court, the Palestinian territories were admitted as a member state in 2015, allowing the court potential jurisdiction over alleged war crimes committed by both Hamas and Israeli forces in Gaza.
ICC Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan previously stated that the court has the “authority” to investigate any such crimes, with the intention to hold accountable those found to be in violation of international law.
In a fiery statement, Prime Minister Netanyahu condemned the ICC’s potential move, framing it as a gross misjudgment and a threat to Israel’s national security.
“The International Criminal Court in The Hague is contemplating issuing arrest warrants against senior Israeli government and military officials as war criminals,” said Netanyahu in a video released Tuesday.
“This would be an outrage of historic proportions. International bodies like the ICC arose in the wake of the Holocaust committed against the Jewish people. They were set up to prevent such horrors, to prevent future genocides. Yet now, the international court is trying to put Israel in the dark.”
“It’s trying to put us in the dark as we defend ourselves against genocidal terrorists and regimes Iran, of course, that openly works to destroy the one and only Jewish state.”
Highlighting the ethical conduct of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), Netanyahu praised their efforts to minimize civilian casualties, a task complicated by Hamas’s alleged use of human shields.
“Branding Israel’s leaders and soldiers as war criminals will pour jet fuel on the fires of anti-Semitism, those fires that are already raging on the campuses of America and across capitals around the world. It will also be the first time that a democratic country, fighting for its life according to the rules of war, is itself accused of war crimes.
“The Israeli army, the IDF, is one of the most moral militaries in the world. It takes endless measures to prevent civilian casualties, measures that no other army takes. It does so while fighting a terrorist enemy which uses its own civilians as human shields. You know the truth. Hamas places its weapons, its terrorists, in hospitals, schools, mosques, and throughout civilian areas. They do this in order to win immunity and to maximize civilian casualties.”
The Prime Minister also highlighted Israel’s ongoing humanitarian efforts in Gaza, contrasting them with Hamas’s claimed disregard for Palestinian lives and misuse of humanitarian aid.
Netanyahu’s response was clear in its rejection of the ICC’s jurisdiction over Israeli actions and its insinuation that Israel’s self-defense measures could be equated with war crimes.
He stressed Israel’s robust legal system, capable of investigating any violations, and dismissed the ICC’s actions to paralyze Israel’s defensive capabilities rather than seeking justice.
“The government and people of Israel reject outright this grave threat to our security, this grave threat to our very existence. I want to assure you that no ICC action will impact Israel’s iron-clad determination to achieve the goals of our war with Hamas terrorists. We will destroy Hamas’s military and governing capabilities in Gaza. We will release all our hostages, and we will ensure that Gaza never poses a threat to Israel again.”
The Prime Minister concluded his statement by calling upon the international community, particularly the leaders of democratic nations, to oppose the ICC’s “outrageous assault” on Israel’s right to self-defense.
He urged allies to stand with Israel in their confrontation with “the barbarians of Hamas and Iran,” and in the broader effort to establish global peace.
An emergency slide that fell off a Boeing 767 passenger aircraft shortly after taking flight last week was discovered two days later outside the home of a lawyer whose firm is currently suing Boeing over manufacturing safety issues.
Attorney Jake Bissell-Linsk, whose firm is currently suing Boeing due to one of its planes losing a door plug during a flight in January, discovered the emergency slide from Delta Airlines Flight 520 washed ashore on some rocks outside his oceanfront home in New York City.
In a statement to the New York Post, Bissel-Linsk shared, “I didn’t want to touch it, but I got close enough to get a close look at it.”
Shortly after Bissell-Linsk made the discovery, a crew of Delta workers were called out to remove the emergency slide from the rocks.
LOOK:
The Missing emergency escape slide that fell off Delta Air Lines Boeing 767-300 aircraft (N176DN) on 27 April, have been found, as it washed up in front of house of lawyer whose firm is suing Boeing.
Bissell-Linsk is a partner at Labaton Keller Sucharow, which has filed a suit against Boeing, alleging the plane manufacturing company made false statements about safety on Alaska Airlines flight 1282 after its door plug blew out.
An emergency slide that fell off of a Delta passenger jet shortly after take-off last week reportedly turned up two days later outside the home of a lawyer whose firm is coincidently suing the Boeing plane manufacturer over safety issues.
Jake Bissell-Linsk, whose firm filed suit against Boeing after one of its planes lost a door plug mid-air back in January, said he discovered the deflated slide washed up outside his oceanfront home near New York City’s John F. Kennedy International Airport on Sunday.
“I didn’t want to touch it but I got close enough to get a close look at it,” he told The New York Post of the bizarre discovery along the shore of Belle Harbor, Queens.
Photos taken by Katie McFadden, managing editor of the local weekly Rockaway Times newspaper, show the yellow and gray slide material flopped upon some rocks before it was carried away by workers. Bissell-Linsk told the Post that it took about 10 minutes for them to haul it away.
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, the FAA temporarily ordered Boeing 737 Max jets to be grounded after the door plug blew out on Alaska Airlines Flight 1282.
Xinhua, Chinese state media, ran the headline, “U.S. police brutality against student protesters exposes hypocrisy on free speech.” The article begins with, “As the world watches in horror at the footage of U.S. police viciously suppressing student protests.” Chinese state media is providing daily coverage of the protests, painting the US as authoritarian and the police as evil. Many of the articles have the number of arrests in the title, such as “Over 100 arrested at UT-Austin amid pro-Palestinian protest.”
In light of the fact that there are no First Amendment freedoms in China, it is ironic that Beijing is outraged that “Peaceful student demonstrators were framed by armed police and U.S. media as ‘perpetrators’ deserving ‘crackdown.’” Peaceful student demonstrators would be quickly subdued and shipped off to camps in China or killed, as happened at Tiananmen Square.
China was publishing these articles while Secretary of State Antony Blinken was in Beijing, but he raised no objection. Even US politicians and business leaders are succumbing to China’s will, either wittingly or unwittingly.
This all has the feel of the US-USSR Cold War and the Vietnam era when liberals were protesting in favor of the Vietcong and the Khmer Rouge. The difference was that during the Vietnam War, the government was largely in favor of America.
The blocs of the new Cold War are China-Russia-Iran vs. the US and the West. However, in addition to proxy armies like Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis, Beijing is weakening our country from within. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) subsidizes the companies making fentanyl precursor chemicals and exporting them to Mexican drug cartels. By doing so, the PRC is killing 150 Americans a day, physically destroying the nation.
China is also using media campaigns, disinformation, online campaigns, and indoctrination to undermine the West from the inside. Amplifying liberal narratives about drug legalization or decriminalization, China is able to convince Americans that drugs and overdoses are normal. The liberal solution of handing out free Narcan is a good example of reducing deaths while failing to address the fact that a large swath of the population is destroying themselves slowly.
The climate agenda is another narrative Beijing encourages the left to push. China is happy to see Europe and the US adopt green restrictions, which make their products more expensive, while China, the world’s largest consumer of coal, continues to increase emissions year on year, so they can undercut the world’s exports. An added bonus is that by getting the rest of the world to stop using coal, China gets coal at a discount. Additionally, China manufactures solar panels and EV batteries, which are too polluting to produce in Europe. So, by pushing the climate agenda, China makes a market for their own exports.
Beijing follows around behind Washington, playing the role of “the friend of the friendless.” After the US pulled out of Afghanistan, Beijing accepted the credentials of the Taliban’s ambassador. Afghanistan is sitting on about a trillion dollars’ worth of rare earth minerals, and China is likely to be the country that gets to extract them.
By supporting Iran, which in turn supports the Houthis, China is disrupting global shipping. Coincidentally, the Houthis have agreed not to attack Russian and Chinese ships. Global shipping is getting more expensive, while China’s shipping remains cheap.
Blocs are forming globally, and at the same time, a fifth column is growing within Europe, Canada, and the US among the liberal left. The pro-Palestine protester, woke mobs, and leftist outrage are all promoted and amplified through social media accounts tied to Beijing and Moscow to incite discontent and division.
Among all of the many ironies is the concept of Queers for Palestine, given that homosexuality is outlawed in many Muslim-majority countries and may even be punished with the death penalty. The fact that China and Russia are posing as friends to the Muslim world, despite Putin’s two wars in Chechnya and crackdowns in Dagestan, as well as the USSR’s invasion of Afghanistan, and don’t forget China’s genocide of the Uyghurs in Xinjiang.
Another irony is that the same liberal women who believe they have the right to kill a baby because “my body, my rules” are protesting in favor of a system where they would have no rights at all. Additionally, Muslims are also against abortion, which is illegal in many Muslim countries. Even the way that many of the female protesters are dressed, or the fact that they are outside without a male member of their family, would land them in sharia jail in some Muslim countries. And of course, protesting against the government would be prohibited in those countries as well.
China didn’t mastermind every strife and debate in America; however, Beijing is watching closely. It utilizes social media and other forms of influence to latch onto, promote, or amplify those issues that work best for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
As for the Middle East, Beijing has normalized relations with the PLO. They are poised to recognize whatever government emerges in Gaza, and at this point, it suits Beijing to align with Iran and just have Israel and the US out of the way. By undermining the US, weakening our people and our unity, by encouraging us to fight amongst ourselves, Beijing is getting the heavy lifting out of the way before the shooting starts.
But if the propaganda campaigns are successful, and it certainly seems that they will be, indoctrinated Americans, Europeans, and Canadians will give Beijing everything they want, without a shot being fired.
Four Florida teens, including a high school football star, were killed in a high-speed chase earlier this month after allegedly stealing a vehicle.
WLBT reported Saturday that the April 20 pursuit started with a Honda CRV that was reported stolen out of Gainesville and ended in the Waldo area. A license plate reader had detected the alleged theft hours later.
A deputy followed the stolen vehicle while waiting for backup to arrive. Once backup officers arrived to help, they tried to pull the SUV over, but it slowed down and then sped off.
“We confirmed with the Gainesville Police Department that they still had that car entered as stolen, and the officer waited until he had three backup units with him before he initiated the traffic stop,” Bradford County Sheriff’s Chief Deputy Brad Smith said. “They did start to pull over on the shoulder of the road, but before they came to a complete stop, they accelerated again, and that is when the chase was on.”
WLBT revealed that Bradford County deputies reached speeds of 111 mph during the chase, but they were unable to match the speed of the SUV. Police officials said deputies pulled back, and a Florida Highway Patrol trooper continued the chase.
The trooper was able to ram the vehicle and used a PIT maneuver. This caused the SUV to roll over and slam into a cement pole.
Here are some photos showing the aftermath of the ugly wreck.

Authorities revealed two of the teenagers occupying the SUV wore ankle monitors, and three had active warrants for their arrests.
Two teens were pronounced dead on the scene, while the other two perished at the hospital. All of those killed in the crash were between the ages of 14 and 16.
The Main Street Daily News identified two of the deceased youths as Newberry High School students, Jabril Cheevers and Lawrence McClendon Jr. The latter was a star sophomore defensive back for the football team.

Ed Johnson, Newbury’s head football coach, mourned the loss of one of his top players.
Lawrence was a great kid to be around and have in our program. As a football player, he was competitive, talented, and relentless, with a knack for making big plays.
He will be truly missed by everyone in the Panther football family.
Fox News correspondent Lawrence Jones interviewed an anti-Israel protester on live television, resulting in an exchange that ended abruptly when the protester could not respond to factual challenges.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that the ‘Islamo-Communist revolution’ occurring on college campuses advanced further overnight with the takeover of Hamilton Hall at Columbia University in New York City.
Dozens of Hamas supporters, who have been staging an ‘occupy’ protest against Israel and the United States, smashed windows and stormed the building, apparently unimpeded by law enforcement, while hundreds more gathered outside to secure the entrances.
During a live broadcast, Fox News correspondent Lawrence Jones encountered a protester just outside the university premises, initiating a dialogue that would soon reveal the tension between facts and narrative.
Lawrence Jones: "What do you feel about them taking over the building right now?"
Protester: "I think that their cause is a just cause, and I hope that the administration really hears their demands. I think they're just demands."
Lawrence Jones: "Do you feel like it was right to hold three of the janitor workers hostage inside of the building?"
Protester: "I think that's a really false narrative."
Lawrence Jones: "That's what the janitors are saying, that they weren't allowed to leave."
Protester: "I think that that's a really false narrative."
Lawrence Jones: "Even if the janitors are saying that, you're saying that that's not true."
Protester: "I think that it's a really false narrative that the students took anyone hostage."
Fox News reported that facility workers at Columbia University were held hostage by anti-Israel protesters after a group of anarchists entered an academic building on the campus and barricaded the doors.
Despite the protester's insistence on dismissing these claims, Lawrence pressed on with questions regarding the safety of Jewish students on campus.
Lawrence Jones: "How do you feel about some of the Jewish students saying that they don't feel safe here on campus?"
Protester: "I think that this is also a really false narrative that's being promoted."
The protester became visibly agitated when Lawrence mentioned specific incidents that occurred on October 7th, including serious allegations of assault.
Lawrence Jones: "Do you think October 7th, the fact that happened, is a false narrative? Do you believe that some of the women were raped?"
Protester: "My colleague just came back."
Lawrence Jones: "This is what happened."
Protester: "Can you get out of my face, please?"
Jones later described to the studio anchors the typical pattern observed at these protests, noting, "This is what you see at these protests. Once you get into the nitty-gritty of what happened on October the seventh, they deny what happened."
Lawrence Jones later relayed to Fox News anchors that these denials are part of a broader pattern of rejection of documented events, even those verified by independent investigations and UN reports.
This pattern, according to Jones, represents a troubling trend of disbelief and denial among American supporters of the movement, distancing them from the reality of the situations being protested and from broader public discourse.
The short interview revealed a typical pattern observed in leftist behavior.
It showed a common reaction among many leftists when faced with facts that contradict their beliefs. Instead of engaging in reasoned debate and civil discourse, they often resort to denial, refuse to engage, or worse, intimidate and slander you.
Joe Biden on Tuesday departed the White House en route to Delaware for a closed-door campaign event.
This is after Biden hid from the public all day Sunday and Monday.
A giant entourage of aides and staffers surrounded Joe Biden as he shuffled across the South Lawn amid reports he can no longer walk solo.
The White House introduced a ‘special routine’ for when Joe Biden departs and returns to the White House on Marine One.
According to a report from Axios, Biden’s advisors are concerned that his stiffened gait is highlighting his old age and feeble state.
Biden’s aides rushed to hide his stiffened gait as he shuffled across the South Lawn. They also acted as human shields to prevent Biden from answering any questions from the press.
WATCH:
HAPPENING NOW: President Biden leaves for a campaign event in Wilmington, Delaware.
He appears to use his aides and staffers as a shield to prevent him from answering any questions from the press.
As the world reels from the years of Biden’s ineptitude and incompetence in handling world events, having inflamed the Russia-Ukraine war, mishandled various other crises causing untold death and devastation in contrast to President Trump’s years of global peace from 2017-2021, critics point out that Biden’s administration has turned a completely blind eye to the ongoing genocide of Christians in Nigeria where a reported 100,000 have been brutally murdered.
Nigeria: Several Christians were recently killed when Fulani Islamists attacked them in Bokkos, Plateau State.

Last month, Missouri Senator Josh Hawley, along with Senators Braun (R-IN) and Rubio (R-FL) sent a letter to the Biden State Department demanding an explanation for their inaction on this humanitarian crisis, noting that the State Department could better use available diplomatic tools to fight the ongoing genocide.
Said Senator Hawley: “You must not stand idly by while Nigerian Christians continue to be murdered for their faith. We urge you to immediately use the tools at your disposal and re-designate Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern. We will continue to conduct oversight and hold the Biden Administration accountable until you fulfill your obligation under the law.”
The killings over the past year are part of a long-standing war against Christians, dating back to 2009 when Boko Haram started its murderous campaign in Africa’s most populous nation.
Former Congressman Steve Stockman (R-TX), who was considered for an Ambassadorship in the Trump Administration and spent years on the Foreign Affairs Committee in the U.S. House, said this to the Gateway Pundit about the layered dimensions of the crisis in Nigeria and the left-wing response to bizarrely blame it all on global warming:
“One reason for this genocide is that the radical Muslims hate and want to rid Nigeria of Christians, as shown in the 299 murdered over Christmas 2023 in Plateau State. A second reason is that the corruption seeps into the highest ranks of generals, etc., who steal and don’t defend the Christians. A third reason seems to be that different parts of Nigeria, such as Plateau State, are rich in minerals and the Fulani Muslim militants want to take these resources for themselves. Yet the U.S. government and the U.N. excuse a lot of these murders and land grabbing, saying it’s all from ‘climate change.'”
The conflict, experts say, worsened after Muslim leaders took over Nigeria.
Goodluck had won the Presidency in 2011 against Buhari by a margin of 59% to 32%. In 2015, Goodluck lost the rematch to Buhari by a vote of 45%-54%. Later studies indicated irregularities in the election where votes in regions supporting Goodluck may have been suppressed by being invalidated at a higher than normal rate.
Reports also claim that tens of thousands of homes, 18,500+ Christian places of worship, 1000 religious shrines and 2,500 Christian education centers have been destroyed. Over 59,000 square kilometers of land that belonged to native Christians and non-Muslims were taken over and their inhabitants expelled.
Nigeria has 218.5 million inhabitants, the African country is located on the Gulf of Guinea.
Former Congressman Stockman said, “This genocide was funded with State Department dollars that went into the 2015 election, because Obama’s deep state didn’t want a Christian leader of a major African nation. Obama’s legacy after meddling in Nigerian elections is a mountain of dead black Christians.”

Radical far-left New York Judge Juan Merchan on Tuesday fined President Trump $9,000 for speaking out in his own defense and violating his gag order in the ongoing lawfare trial in New York City.
Merchan also threatened President Trump with jail if he continued to publicly defend himself in the case.
The judge gave Trump ‘permission’ to attend his son Barron’s high school graduation ceremony on May 17 in Palm Beach, Florida.
“The judge presiding over the NY v. Trump trial in Manhattan granted former President Trump permission on Tuesday to attend his son’s high school graduation in Florida next month.” Fox News reported. “I don’t think the May 17 date is a problem,” Judge Juan Merchan told the court Tuesday morning of Barron Trump’s graduation date.
After refusing to recuse himself, Judge Juan Merchan earlier this month threatened to put President Trump in jail if he didn’t show up for trial.
Earlier this month President Trump asked the judge if he could skip the trial to attend his son Barron’s graduation.
Judge Merchan said that the decision “really depends on if we are on time and where we are in the trial.”
After major backlash the judge gave Trump ‘permission’ to attend his own son’s high school graduation.
Far-left pro-Gaza radicals desecrate and vandalize the George Washington Statue at GW University in Washington, DC
Young radical leftists vandalized the George Washington statue at George Washington University in Washington DC on Monday.
The historic campus is nestled between the White House, the Kennedy Center, and a number of federal and international agencies.
Clay Travis posted this video. Notice the writing on the base of the statue.
These people HATE the Jews and HATE America.
The main campus quad statue of George Washington has been defaced by anti-Israel protesters. GW’s student population is nearly 30% Jewish. The woke virus is toxic and must be defeated or the country will be destroyed. These are the stakes. pic.twitter.com/TuhkmilJwG
Protesters at George Washington University in D.C. have defaced their own campus and vandalized the statue of the school’s namesake and America’s founder, George Washington.
Fox News sent a camera crew to the campus to document the damage caused by recent ‘pro-Palestine’ protests over the past few days.
A reporter walked through the encampment, expressing shock at the extent of the damage and the disregard for the campus’s historical significance.
“The signature statue here, George Washington himself, has been draped in a Palestine flag and also the kaffiyeh, which is a traditional headdress, a black and white headdress that’s worn by Palestinians.”
As the reporter approached the monument, it became clear that the vandals had done more than just drape the flag.
“This is George Washington, the statue here. Graffitied, covered in stickers.”
“Genocidal”
“Warmonger”
George Washington University was founded in 1821 through an Act of Congress signed by then-President James Monroe. The university was named after George Washington, who had advocated for a national university in the U.S. to educate future leaders of the country.
It’s truly amazing how the evil, biased, wickedly Marxist, mainstream media covers up for Biden’s crimes.
Before I get to the tragic story of a young NYC firefighter…let’s go through some other horrible tragic results of Biden’s policies that the media has blacked out and covered up.
Can you believe President Trump attended the wake of a hero police officer in New York City and met with his grieving widow…and on the exact same day Biden was in New York to attend a glamorous fundraiser…and never bothered to contact the widow, or attend the wake…and never even found the time to send his condolences?
But after saying nothing about a hero cop being murdered, leaving behind a grieving widow and baby boy…Biden did manage days later to issue a statement of condolences to the family of murderer O.J. Simpson.
The media said nothing about Biden’s reckless disregard for a dead hero.
Can you imagine if the roles were reversed? What if President Trump attended a $25 million political fundraiser in NYC and ignored the death of a national hero? What would the media say? It would have been a national media firestorm. The media would have said “Trump values money over human lives. Trump has abdicated the role of national leader.”
How is it possible this wasn’t a national scandal of epic proportions for Joe Biden?
Or take the national outrage only days ago about Republican Governor Kristi Noem’s new book. She brags openly in her book about killing a young dog 20 years ago, because the puppy was wild, untrainable, and killing chickens.
Now let me say, I was angry and outraged too. I’ve been a dog lover for my entire life. Dogs are man’s best friends. Like millions of Americans, my dogs are treated like family. This was a terrible thing for Governor Noem to admit in a nation where 2/3rds of all households own a dog.
Yet what she admitted to doing to one dog 20 years ago is NOTHING compared to what Joe Biden did to dogs more recently.
I’ll bet 90% of Americans don’t know what Joe did. He left our hero military dogs to die an agonizing death on the tarmac in Afghanistan during our military retreat. Over 200 of them. Beautiful, precious, hero German Shepherds- who guarded our military heroes and saved countless lives. Man’s best friends.
They were abandoned on the airport tarmac in cages in 110 degree heat. Biden would not allow the dogs on the cargo planes rushing to leave Afghanistan.
Did you know this?
Can you imagine how agonizing their deaths were? They all either died from heat, no water, starvation, or shot dead by the radical Islamic terrorist Taliban (who hate dogs).
If dog lovers hate Kristi Noem, what about Biden? Why didn’t PETA or the ASPCA call Biden a mass dog killer? If Trump did it, they would have.
If you love dogs, Biden is the most evil, callous politician in US history.
And yet, no one in the media said a thing. A complete blackout. A coverup like Hunter Biden’s laptop.
Now we come to the most recent story of what Biden’s policies do to Americans.
In New York City, Derek Floyd- a 36 year old hero Marine veteran and firefighter- died of cardiac arrest just months after being terminated from the FDNY, because they needed to cut spending to pay for illegal aliens.
This is a national disgrace. It should be the biggest media firestorm in America. We just left a hero behind. This man served 3 tours as a Marine in the Middle East. Then he came home and became a firefighter. He was an American hero.
Democrats like Joe Biden (and his boss Obama), Kamala Harris (the border czar who has never been to the border), DHS Chief Alejandro Mayorkas, and New York City Mayor Eric Adams all conspired to abandon this hero. These open borders Democrats value and prioritize illegal alien foreign invaders over the lives and well-being of American citizens.
This is TREASON to the highest degree.
This Marine and firefighter surely died of a broken heart. He died because he could no longer do the job he loved. He died because his family saw him unemployed. He died because he felt abandoned. He died because he saw how Democrats valued illegal aliens over a Marine hero.
And he died short of a pension and death benefits, leaving his wife and two young children destitute.
We are all now second-class citizens. Criminals; people who scream “Death to America” at rallies across America; Jew-haters; and terrorists are all valued by Biden and his traitorous communist cabal higher than you and me.
Where is the national media coverage of this tragic story? Why isn’t Biden to blame? Why isn’t the entire Democrat Party to blame? They opened the border and welcomed millions in. The cost of that is bankrupting America. It certainly contributed to the death of this hero firefighter.
But did Biden and Democrats contribute to his death TWICE?
Remember Biden chose to mandate the Covid vaccine- specifically to First Responders. First Responders like Derek Floyd are dying in huge numbers of heart attacks and strokes- only since the vaccine. Yes, Trump supports the vaccine. But he never mandated it, and never will. No firefighter like Derek Floyd would have ever been forced to take it. But in Biden’s America and deep blue Democrat New York, all firefighters were forced to take the jab, or lose their jobs.
Did it contribute to Derek Floyd’s heart attack death? He’s not alone- we are seeing an epidemic of excess death. The media should be demanding an investigation of why so many cops, firefighters and military personnel are dying of heart attacks at a young age- only since Biden mandated the vaccine.
So, where is the media?
They are in all these cases (and many more) covering up the truth that would destroy Biden and the Democrat Party forever.

Fox News on Tuesday removed a six-part Hunter Biden miniseries from its streaming platform, after his attorneys threatened to sue the right-wing network over the incendiary and at-times sexually explicit program about his legal troubles.
The removal is a swift response from the conservative media juggernaut, whose spokespeople were defending the material as recently as Tuesday morning.
“This program was produced in and has been available since 2022,” a Fox News Media spokesperson said in a statement. “We are reviewing the concerns that have just been raised and – out of an abundance of caution in the interim – have taken it down.”
The program, titled “The Trial of Hunter Biden,” was an offering on the Fox Nation digital streaming network. It was also promoted on Fox News, the cable TV channel.
Fox News earlier Tuesday hit back after Hunter Biden threatened a ‘revenge porn’ defamation suit.
“Hunter Biden’s legal team wrote that they anticipate “imminent” litigation against Fox News and requested that prominent Fox News hosts, including Sean Hannity, Jesse Watters and Maria Bartiromo, preserve documentation.” Axios reported.
The lawsuit alleges “conspiracy and subsequent actions to defame Mr. Biden and paint him in a false light, the unlicensed commercial exploitation of his image, name, and likeness, and the unlawful publication of hacked intimate images of him.”
Hunter’s attorneys demanded Fox News remove the “intimate images of Mr. Biden depicting him in the nude as well as engaged in sex acts,” from all of their platforms claiming the images were “hacked, stolen, and/or manipulated digital material.”
The images from Hunter’s laptop from hell were not hacked or stolen. He abandoned his laptop at a Delaware computer repair shop.
Fox News called its reporting on Hunter Biden and the salacious contents from his laptop from hell “Constitutionally protected coverage.”
Per CNN: In response to the lawsuit threats, a Fox News Media spokesperson defended the network’s “constitutionally protected coverage” of Hunter Biden, a “public figure who has been the subject of investigations by both the Department of Justice and Congress.”
“Consistent with the First Amendment, Fox News has accurately covered these highly publicized events as well as the subsequent indictment of an FBI informant who was the source of certain claims made about Mr. Biden,” the spokesperson said in the statement, CNN reported.
There’s more!
Hunter Biden’s lawyers attacked Fox News for reporting on the Joe Biden-Burisma-Ukraine-bribery allegations.
Joe Biden’s DOJ indicted FBI informant Alexander Smirnov on charges he made false statements to the feds.
Hunter’s lawyers are now claiming Fox News should retract its reporting on the indicted FBI informant’s claims Joe Biden bribed Burisma’s owner and Ukrainian oligarch Mykola Zlovchesky.
Five West Virginia middle school students have been banned from future track and field competitions after refusing to compete against a transgender athlete. The incident has now drawn the attention of state Attorney General Patrick Morrisey, who is seeking intervention from the US Supreme Court for the second time.
The controversy centers around the “Save Women’s Sports Act” (House Bill 2917), which was challenged on April 16th after a lawsuit was filed on behalf of Becky Pepper-Johnson, a 13-year-old transgender (biological male) middle school track athlete.
The lawsuit argued that the law, by restricting transgender students from participating in sports teams that align with their gender identity, violates both the Equal Protection Clause and Title IX, which is aimed at preventing sex-based discrimination in education.
In his ruling, Judge Toby Heytens wrote, “Offering B.P.J. a ‘choice’ between not participating in sports and participating only on boys teams is no real choice at all. The defendants cannot expect that B.P.J. will countermand her social transition, her medical treatment, and all the work she has done with her schools, teachers, and coaches for nearly half her life by introducing herself to teammates, coaches, and even opponents as a boy.”

During the 2024 Harrison County Middle School Championships, held on April 18th, the five students, all from Lincoln Middle School, opted not to participate in the shot-put competition in protest against competing with Becky Pepper-Jackson, The Gateway Pundit previously reported.
Pepper-Jackson, the transgender student at the heart of the original lawsuit, had been granted the right to compete by the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals just days prior.
The girls made their stance clear by stepping into the shot-put circle, only to step out, thereby forfeiting their turns. This act of protest was repeated during the discus event, which Pepper-Jackson ultimately won.
WATCH:
FIVE middle school female athletes in West Virginia refuse to throw shot put against male, Becky Pepper-Jackson.
This comes just 2 days after the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals blocked the WV law that says you must compete in the category that matches your sex.
West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey, who is also a gubernatorial candidate, expressed support for the protesting students. He emphasized that their action was a peaceful demonstration against the federal court’s decision, which they believe undermines the integrity of women’s sports.
“At its core, this is a matter of common sense,” Mr. Morrisey said Wednesday at a press conference. “You can’t fairly ask a girl or a woman to compete against a biological male. It’s not right, and it’s just plain wrong, and West Virginia parents know this.”
Morrisey has filed an amicus brief backing the students after they were banned from future events and announced plans to urge the Supreme Court to review the state’s regulations concerning transgender student-athletes.
“I will do everything in my power to defend these brave young girls. This is just wrong. We must stand for what’s right and oppose these radical trans policies,” Morrisey said on Monday.
“What does it mean to fight and win? We announced this week that we are taking our fight to protect girls’ sports all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court. That is what fighting means. And I know we will win this fight,” Morrisey wrote on X.
What does it mean to fight and win?
We announced this week that we are taking our fight to protect girls’ sports all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court.
That is what fighting means. And I know we will win this fight.
Joe Biden’s DOJ/FBI is hunting down pro-life, conservative grandmas while ignoring Antifa and BLM militants and the radical Hamas supporters shutting down and terrorizing college campuses.
Under Biden, the DOJ weaponized the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act, a 1994 law that prohibits interfering with anyone obtaining or providing “reproductive health services,” as a punishment for the Supreme Court’s reversal of Roe v. Wade in June 2022.
After the Supreme Court ruling, Biden formed the DOJ-led Reproductive Rights Task Force to enforce the act.
According to The Epoch Times, The FACE Act has now been used 130 times against pro-life individuals but only used three times against pro-abortion protesters.
In 2020, a group of pro-life activists entered an abortion clinic in Washington DC and ‘blocked’ women from seeking abortions.
The DOJ said the group entered the facility and blocked access using their bodies, furniture, chains, and ropes and live-streamed their activity on social media, which, according to the DOJ, is a felony conspiracy.
In September 2023, Lauren Handy, 28, of Alexandria, Virginia; John Hinshaw, 67, of Levittown, New York; Heather Idoni, 61, of Linden, Michigan; William Goodman, 52, of Bronx, New York; and Herb Geraghty, 25, of Pittsburgh were found guilty of conspiring to blockade access to the clinic.
Idoni, a mother of 15, including 10 boys she and her husband adopted from Ukraine, is facing a sentence of up to 50 years in federal prison and over $1 million in fines for her participation in pro-life protests in Washington, D.C., Michigan, and Tennessee.
Sentencing for Idoni and the other pro-lifers in the Washington D.C. case will take place in mid-May.
Idoni recently spoke with LifeSiteNews and shared the abuses she alleges she has faced while incarcerated.
Heather Idoni, a defendant in the Washington, D.C., FACE (Freedom to Access Clinic Entrances) Act trials, told LifeSiteNews that she has been subjected to 22 days of solitary confinement. In an exclusive interview, she said that she received this punishment for sharing food with fellow prisoners. Idoni alleged that she was allowed to walk outside her cell only for two hours in the middle of the night each day and that the lights of her cell were continually kept on. Idoni has been in prison since she was convicted last autumn.
Cal Zastro, a fellow pro-life advocate who has also been convicted of violating the FACE Act, told LifeSiteNews that “when Idoni was brought into the courtroom for a trial in Nashville, the U.S. marshal had the middle-aged woman shackled at the wrists, waist, and feet as if she were a dangerous criminal.”
Zastro said that, upon entering the courtroom, the shocked judge ordered the shackles removed. Initially the marshal agreed to remove the shackles from only one wrist to allow Idoni freedom to write, a concession necessary for her to take notes, as she was then representing herself in court. Only at the insistence of the indignant judge were the shackles of both wrists finally removed, although the marshal left the bars around her waist and feet.

President Trump on Tuesday slammed Jack Smith in remarks outside of a courthouse in New York City.
Trump went after Jack Smith in a Truth Social post on Saturday night after bombshell documents revealed the Biden DOJ coordinated with the National Archives (NARA).
“Wow! It looks like Deranged Jack Smith, a sick PSYCHO, got caught. BIG “STUFF!” See story in Rob Schmitt opening on NEWSMAX. AMAZING — MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
Trump continued his attack against Special Counsel Jack Smith on Tuesday morning in remarks outside the New York State courthouse.
“You probably saw last night that Jack Smith got caught with his hand in the cookie jar. It was released late last night and it’s a big story,” Trump said. “The documents case is a hoax, created by them for election interference purposes. That one looks like it’s going asunder.”
Trump continued, “The whole thing is a hoax. All of them are hoaxes, including the civil cases. They’re controlled by the White House, they’re controlled by Democrat judges and prosecutors… and the people are getting it.”
“The public has figured it out because the poll numbers are the highest they’ve ever been,” he added.

The day before Jack Smith indicted Trump in the classified documents case last June, NARA’s general counsel Gary Stern was at the Biden White House and met with Joe Biden’s White House lawyer Richard Sauber.

A man allegedly murdered another man at a bus stop near the Las Vegas Strip, eating his victim’s face in the process, according to documents the 8 News Now Investigators obtained.
Colin Czech, 29, faces a charge of open murder.
Just before 5 a.m. Sunday, a person called police about a man who reportedly tackled another man to the ground on Las Vegas Boulevard near Charleston Boulevard, documents said. About 45 minutes later, another person called police, saying a man was on top of another man at a bus stop “eating” the other man’s face.
Officers responded, finding Czech kneeling next to the victim with “biological matter in his hair, mouth and on his clothing,” documents said. Czech reportedly told officers the victim had attacked him.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries Speaker Mike Johnson
House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), Democratic Whip Katherine Clark (D-MA), and Democratic Caucus Chair Pete Aguilar (D-CA), following a House Democratic Caucus Meeting, have formally announced their collective decision to save their comrade and oppose Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s motion to vacate the chair, currently held by RINO Speaker Mike Johnson.
The Gateway Pundit reported last month that Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) filed a motion to vacate the chair and remove Mike Johnson as House Speaker thanks to his actions over the House Omnibus bill, which will fund the government until September 30.
“Mike Johnson has made a complete departure of who he is and what he stands for, and to the point where people are literally asking, is he blackmailed? What is wrong with him because he’s completely disconnected with what we want?” Greene asked during an appearance on Tucker Carlson’s show.
“I just told Mike Johnson in conference that I’m cosponsoring the Motion to Vacate that was introduced by Rep. MTG. He should pre-announce his resignation (as Boehner did), so we can pick a new Speaker without ever being without a GOP Speaker,” Massie wrote.
The Gateway Pundit also reported that Gosar became the third Republican, joining Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) and Thomas Massie (R-KY), to support a Motion to Vacate the Chair and remove Mike Johnson as House Speaker.
“Nearly 11 million illegal aliens have crossed our southern border in the past three years. My congressional district in Arizona, ground zero for the invasion, is getting pummeled by the surge of lawbreakers. These illegal aliens have brought violent crime, deadly drugs, human trafficking and are depleting resources and services meant for U.S. citizens. In fact, every state has become a border state. Communities across the country are being ravaged, families are being destroyed and Americans in need are being ignored,” Gosar said in response to Mike Johnson’s latest anti-American foreign aid package.
Johnson has sold out his countrymen for the Biblical equivalent of thirty pieces of silver. The House of Representatives, under Johnson’s leadership and his comrades, passed two “America last” legislations this month.
Firstly, the House approved an extension of Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), a measure initially enacted following the September 11, 2001, attacks, in a 273 to 147 vote. This provision allows for the warrantless surveillance of American citizens, a move that has raised concerns about privacy and civil liberties.
An amendment proposed by Rep. Andy Biggs, which sought to impose a requirement for the FBI to obtain a warrant before conducting surveillance on Americans under FISA, ended in a 212-212 tie vote, leading to Speaker Mike Johnson casting the tie-breaking vote against the amendment.
The second major legislative action under Speaker Johnson involved the passing of three bills aimed at providing financial aid to Ukraine, Israel, Gaza, and other regions engaged in conflicts outside U.S. borders.
The package Johnson announced Wednesday includes terms that will allow the President to cancel 50% of Ukraine’s debt after November 15, 2024, and the remaining 50% after January 1, 2024. It’s no wonder why Joe Biden came out “strongly” in support of the package, urging the House and Senate to pass it.
The Pentagon confirmed on Wednesday that the US secretly sent long-range Army Tactical Missile System to Ukraine as part of the $61 billion dollar package passed by Democrats, RINOs, Speaker Johnson and signed by Joe Biden.
Now, Democrats are protecting their own people.
In a joint statement House Democrat Leaders said, “At this moment, upon completion of our national security work, the time has come to turn the page on this chapter of Pro-Putin Republican obstruction. We will vote to table Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Motion to Vacate the Chair. If she invokes the motion, it will not succeed.”
For months, House Republicans irresponsibly delayed critical security assistance to our democratic allies in Ukraine, Israel and the Indo-Pacific, while simultaneously blocking humanitarian assistance to civilians in harm’s way in places like Gaza, Haiti and the Sudan. Thanks to a bipartisan coalition of Democrats and Republicans, led by President Biden, we were finally able to meet the national security needs of the American people.
From the very beginning of this Congress, House Democrats have put people over politics and found bipartisan common ground with traditional Republicans in order to deliver real results. At the same time, House Democrats have aggressively pushed back against MAGA extremism.
We will continue to do just that.
At this moment, upon completion of our national security work, the time has come to turn the page on this chapter of Pro-Putin Republican obstruction. We will vote to table Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Motion to Vacate the Chair. If she invokes the motion, it will not succeed.

Vaccine manufacturer AstraZeneca has finally admitted in Court that its COVID-19 vaccine could result in life-threatening blood clots.
Cambridge-based AstraZeneca… acknowledged in a legal document submitted to the High Court in February that its vaccine ‘can, in very rare cases, cause TTS’.
TTS is short for thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome – a medical condition where a person suffers blood clots along with a low platelet count. Platelets typically help the blood to clot.
The admission by AstraZeneca is the first of its kind.
The question now is – if you got the vaccine, what can you do about it?
Dr. Peter McCullough has been one of the leading experts on treating long COVID and the health impacts from COVID-19 vaccines. Since very early on in this process, Nattokinase has shown great potential in treating some of the most serious side effects of both.
According to Dr. McCullough, the threat of micro blood clotting is serious for those impacted by long COVID and the vaccine:
Post-acute sequelae after SARS-CoV-2 infection (long COVID) and after COVID-19 vaccination are characterized by micro blood clotting . The work ofScheim et al suggests the majority of syndromes in both cases are due to Spike protein mediated hemagglutination and then the development of small clots that serve the major organs in the body.Xi et aldemonstrated increased risk for microclots visualized in retinal arteries and veins in the COVID-19 vaccinated.
Nattokinase, from the Japanese fermented food natto, is a protease with fibrinolytic activity that can thus degrade conventional blood clots. In some cases, however, including in Long COVID, fibrinogen can polymerise into an anomalous amyloid form to create clots that are resistant to normal fibrinolysis and that we refer to as fibrinaloid microclots. These can be detected with the fluorogenic stain thioflavin T. We describe an automated microscopic technique for the quantification of fibrinaloid microdot formation, which also allows the kinetics of their formation and aggregation to be recorded. We also here show that recombinant nattokinase is effective at degrading the fibrinaloid microclots in vitro. This adds to the otherwise largely anecdotal evidence, that we review, that nattokinase might be anticipated to have value as part of therapeutic treatments for individuals with Long COVID and related disorders that involve fibrinaloid microclots.
Dr. McCullough treats hundreds of patients in his clinic with a wide range post-vaccine and long COVID symptoms.
Says Dr. McCullough:
“Far and away the most common question I get from those who took one of the COVID-19 vaccines is: ‘how do I get this out of my body?’… At three and one half years into the pandemic and two and a half years into the COVID-19 vaccine debacle, myself and my clinic partners formulated a baseline regimen upon which additional drugs or agents can be added.
A SIMPLE SOLUTION
Dr. McCullough continues,
“We searched the literature for all available sources of evidence for products that can aid the human body in breaking down and catabolizing the Spike protein. We found nattokinase, which additionally has fibrinolytic properties which are advantageous in the prothrombotic milieu induced by the persistent Spike protein…
Out of all the available therapies I have used in my practice and among all the proposed detoxification agents, I believe nattokinase and related peptides hold the greatest promise for patients at this time.”
This ground-breaking discovery catalyzed Dr. McCullough to design The Wellness Company’s Spike Support Formula containing nattokinase. To-date, tens of thousands of people have tried Spike Support and the results have been nothing short of miraculous:
Feeling so much better! I decided to try Spike Support after talking with a friend that recommended this product. I had 2 Covid shots because my husband has degenerative heart condition and our doctor said to get the shots. He had no side effects but I ended up with an erratic racing heart beat and had problem with ringing ears, tasting and smelling, even though I never had Covid. I have taken this product for 2 months now and noticed a difference in lots of things. No more racing heart beat, I’m smelling and tasting things better and my anxiety has subsided. – Audrey H.
Worked for me: I have taken three of the mRNA vaxxes – I’ll never take another one again. The skin on my hands peeled after the 3rd vax, especially around my nails, to the point where I had deep, bleeding, incredibly painful fissures and cracks… I am sure the vax is what caused my skin problems as well – I’d never had this before being vaxxed. Bought the Spike Support as a desperate measure. Noticed about three weeks after I started taking Spike Support, the peeling, cracks and fissures around my fingertips, and under and around my nails have not only stopped but healed up. My hands are 95% better now. I am sure the Spike Support is what stopped it. – Barbara B.
Spike protein recovery: This product has tremendously help me on recovering my heath and I highly recommend this product anyone that has long Covid or in the vaccine. – Estela M.

LeBron James is once again facing controversy for his in-game tactics.
Last night, during the Laker’s playoff game against the Denver Nuggets, LeBron James attempted to scare a Nuggets fan sitting courtside.
The incident occurred in the third quarter after James received his third foul.
Clearly frustrated about the call, LeBron walks to the opposite end of the court and confronts a female fan who reportedly calls him a crybaby for disagreeing with the referee’s call.
As the woman confronted LeBron, the Lakers star then pretended like he was going to go after her, attempting to intimidate the woman physically.
Over the years, LeBron James would have heard courtside fans call him all sorts of names, but we haven’t seen him respond to them all that often. During the third quarter of Game 5 between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Denver Nuggets, though, a woman could be seen yelling something at James and he decided to scare her in response.
She definitely was not expecting him to react and flinched. An account on X posted a video that showed that James allegedly was complaining about the officials calling a foul on him at that point, and it was what led to the woman calling him a crybaby.
LeBron James: “They (refs) are f***ing horrible. They are f***ing horrible.”
‘Sadly, American culture is increasingly hostile’ to faith
Long have reports of the persecution of Christians highlighted China and Pakistan, multiple Islamic nations in Africa, those hotbeds of hate for Christians in the Middle East.
But now it’s the “West” that is being called out.
A report at the Washington Stand explains that now international religious freedom organizations “are monitoring religious freedom conditions in the United States … and it’s easy to see why.”
Arielle Del Turco, of the Center for Religious Liberty at the Family Research Council, added, to the publication, “Sadly, American culture is increasingly hostile to traditional Christian beliefs.”
Two recent situations both have developed in the leftist state of Colorado, run now by Democrats in the governor’s office, state House and state Senate. There bureaucrats first accused Masterpiece Cakeshop owner Jack Phillips of discrimination because he wouldn’t promote same-sex marriages with his cake artistry, and then they demanded a web designer promote same-sex weddings if she provided any wedding services.
In both cases the principals are Christians who refused state demands they violate their faith, and in both cases the state was summarily slapped down by the U.S. Supreme Court. However, the state still maintains the so-called “anti-discrimination” agenda under which the two were charged.
Del Turco told the Stand, “To a large extent, we can all intuit that by browsing through a streaming service or scrolling on social media. But these cultural shifts are also having real-work impacts for Christians in America who simply want to go about their lives while staying true to their faith.”
She pointed out, “When Christian couples are denied a foster care license because their faith is at odds with gender ideology or fifth graders are prevented from starting an interfaith prayer club at school, these are critical reminders that religious freedom isn’t something we can take for granted — it must be defended. Thankfully, the U.S. still has strong legal protections in most cases and religious freedom is the victor in court more often than not. However, cultural support for religious freedom is in peril and we must be intentional about fostering that.”
A report from the FRC’s Center for Religious Liberty just months ago, called “Free to Believe? The Intensifying Intolerance Toward Christians in the West,” documented 168 incidents of anti-Christian hate or discrimination in recent years – including 33 in 2023.
Many happened during the wildly out-of-synch government lockdowns during COVID.
That report found, “As the mainstream culture moves further and further away from a Christian worldview, Christian beliefs that contradict progressive secular values are increasingly denounced by the culture and wrongly portrayed as being hateful or bigoted.”
Tony Perkins, chief of the FRC, said in the Stand report, “It is shocking to see Western countries — the same ones we think of as free and open societies — take authoritarian measures against Christians simply trying to live out their faith.”
He warned “hostility” to Christians – which was what the Supreme Court found Colorado had exhibited – “is clearly and steadily rising in the West.”
Also, there have been a flood of reports in recent years of vandalism, fire-bombing or more at Christian churches whose congregations are unwilling to endorse Joe Biden’s radical abortion and transgender ideologies.
The report noted even the FBI, through a field office, “compiled and circulated a memo detailing plans to spy on Catholics who attend the Tridentine Mass, the form of the Mass most common prior to 1969.”
The report explained there also are increasing attacks on Christians across Europe.
TIME magazine has released a major cover story preparing its readers for Trump’s return to the White House.
In a long-form interview with the former president, journalist Eric Cortellessa establishes Trump’s key failing in his first term in office; he didn’t go far enough.
According to Cortellessa, Trump is planning his retribution through a series of policies, including a mass deportation campaign, gutting the deep state, and pardoning those involved in the January 6th protests.
#BREAKING: Trump Featured on @TIME Magazine Cover Following Recent Interview:
Trump: “Biden has done so many things so badly. And I’m not even talking the overt crime. I’m talking about the border, allowing all of the death and destruction at the border” pic.twitter.com/R5KueKkQv0
The article, which is filled with the typical left-wing falsehoods, states:
What emerged in two interviews with Trump, and conversations with more than a dozen of his closest advisers and confidants, were the outlines of an imperial presidency that would reshape America and its role in the world.
To carry out a deportation operation designed to remove more than 11 million people from the country, Trump told me, he would be willing to build migrant detention camps and deploy the U.S. military, both at the border and inland. He would let red states monitor women’s pregnancies and prosecute those who violate abortion bans. He would, at his personal discretion, withhold funds appropriated by Congress, according to top advisers. He would be willing to fire a U.S. Attorney who doesn’t carry out his order to prosecute someone, breaking with a tradition of independent law enforcement that dates from America’s founding.
He is weighing pardons for every one of his supporters accused of attacking the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, more than 800 of whom have pleaded guilty or been convicted by a jury. He might not come to the aid of an attacked ally in Europe or Asia if he felt that country wasn’t paying enough for its own defense. He would gut the U.S. civil service, deploy the National Guard to American cities as he sees fit, close the White House pandemic-preparedness office, and staff his Administration with acolytes who back his false assertion that the 2020 election was stolen.
Fearing a backlash from Democrats, TIME also published a separate article outlining their decision to present Trump in such a positive light:
Interviewing political leaders has been a staple of TIME’s journalism for decades, as we report on the most influential people in the world and bring those insights to our readers and viewers. With six months to go until the U.S Presidential election, we want our coverage of this campaign to be of service to our readers, and to help the world and American voters understand what the candidates would do if elected.
Today, Donald Trump is in a better position to win the White House than at any point in the previous two campaigns. TIME’s Eric Cortellessa, who covers the Trump campaign, interviewed the former President twice in April to hear from Trump himself what a second term would look like.
Trump was TIME’s Person of the Year in 2016, while the magazine has previously acknowledged that there was a conspiracy to remove him from office back in 2020. If he can overcome the Democratic election fraud, he may reprise that accolade in 2024.
Residents in Louisiana’s Democrat-run capital city have won a historic battle to secede and create their own city following a lengthy court battle.
As the New York Times reported, the Louisiana Supreme Court cleared the way on Friday for a group of mostly-white, affluent residents of Baton Rouge to secede and form the new city of St. George. This is the first city incorporated in the Pelican State in almost two decades.
In the 4-3 ruling, the justices found that lower courts were wrong in blocking St George’s creation over concerns of its financial viability.
Andrew Murrell, one of the leaders of the St. George movement, released the following statement after the Louisiana Supreme Court’s decision.
This is the culmination of citizens exercising their constitutional rights. We voted and we won.
Whether you are for or you are against St. George, now is your opportunity, a historic opportunity, to create a city from the beginning, from the ground up. It’s your ideas, it’s your policies, it’s your way of life and now you can come together and put those out there and have someone accountable to you.
Now, we begin the process of delivering on our promises of a better city. We welcome both our friends and foes to the table to create St. George.
The Times reported that in 2015, supporters failed to collect enough signatures to bring their proposal up for a vote but prevailed in 2019 before a lengthy court battle stalled the initiative.
The New York Post notes that Sharon Weston Broome, the mayor-president who leads the combined Baton Rouge and East Baton Rouge Parish governments, previously sued the St. George organizers. She whined that the secession would suck more than $48 million in yearly tax revenue from the local government.
St. George will be Louisiana’s sixth largest city in terms of population, with nearly 100,000 people.
St. George will likely be a GOP stronghold as well, given its heavily white population. In 2020, white Louisianans supported President Trump by a 77%–22% margin while blacks supported Joe Biden by 88%–10%.
While Broome committed to serving the residents of St. George following the vote, others fumed. The local NAACP released a statement slamming the new town and warning the development would negatively impact Baton Rouge’s education system and “community representation.”
The St. George plan poses significant risks to our education system, threatens the continuity of critical programs, and challenges community representation. The creation of a new municipality introduces considerable uncertainty around funding allocation for our schools, jeopardizing the cornerstone of our community’s future: education.
The cost of gasoline is once again surging across the U.S. as the Biden regime continues its war on energy independence.
Bloomberg reports that with only six months to go until the all-important presidential election, Biden’s efforts to lower the cost at the pump are in “jeopardy.”
The report states:
The calculus is getting tricky for Biden before an election in which the rising cost of living is expected to figure prominently in voting decisions. History has shown that the fortunes of US presidents are closely tied to prices at the pump, even though they have little control over the oil market in the short term. As violence roils the Middle East, US gasoline prices have surged 18% this year—and the summer driving season hasn’t started.
The Biden administration is just pathologically allergic to anything that would increase oil prices, and they have telegraphed that over and over again,” says Jim Lucier, managing director at Capital Alpha Partners, a research group in Washington. But, he adds, there’s not much the president can really do about it: “Biden is in a box on this question.”
Yet despite the political benefit of bringing costs down, Biden has only sought to exacerbate the problem in recent months through his support of the climate change hoax.
According to an analysis by The Center Square, Biden has taken at least 200 different actions to undermine America’s access to energy resources. These include shutting down the Keystone XL Pipeline, canceling exploration to various oil reserves and imposing burdensome regulations across the entire sector.
Meanwhile, a recent study by Moody’s Analytics found that high gas prices could cost Joe Biden re-election as ordinary people feel the financial pain of his leftist policies.
“Biden gets a small tailwind from the year-over-year decline in gasoline prices, but the expected late-2024 increase erodes much of the benefit,” Moody’s wrote. “Having said this, forecasting oil prices is especially difficult, and if prices move up much more than anticipated, the damage to Biden’s re-election bid will quickly mount.”
I have been trying to offer short and focused updates on the war in Ukraine, but now it seems impossible, since the amount of activity in so many parts of the 600-mile long frontline is simply dizzying.
So I will try here to pack as much information as possible to show just how close to collapse are Kiev’s defenses in Donetsk region.
Report by the New York Times says Russian Federation troops liberated 12 settlements in just the last week of offensive in the Donbas.
Much like Ukrainian forces are retreating and taking up new defensive lines, so does the MSM, that is abandoning some propaganda narratives and taking up others further behind in their fake triumphalism.
Some of the media reports now hear ‘military bloggers on both sides’, and not just the ‘Ukrainian Military PR lie machine’.
And much of the distressing news for Kiev is coming from their own forces on the ground, tired of pretending.
For instance, Swiss paper Blick (behind a paywall) brings the unvarnished opinions of frontline Ukrainian officers:
“’The Russians will capture Donbass by October, then the conflict will freeze, and we will have to negotiate with Putin’, predicts Sergei, an officer of the brigade located in Chasov Yar.”

“Russia has consolidated recent battlefield gains in the east of Ukraine, and is attempting to break through Ukrainian defensive lines before a long-awaited package of US military assistance arrives at the frontline.”
Russians have expanded a narrow corridor around the rural settlement of Ocheretyne. The fighting there followed a rare surprise Russian attack, because with the present-day ISR capabilities one side is always able to know the other’s movements.

“According to the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), the Kremlin is seeking to exploit a window of opportunity before US assistance is delivered. Moscow has been bringing in reinforcements and has a threefold advantage in some sectors. Its recent tactical gains suggest an ambitious plan to encircle the Ukrainian garrison cities of Sloviansk and Kramatorsk in a summer offensive. Whether it will succeed is unclear. Russia is unlikely to overwhelm Ukrainian defences, the ISW said last week.”
Ukrainian service personnel complain that they are completely outgunned. Russian warplanes able to operate freely close to the frontline. Ukraine has fewer tanks and armored vehicles.
Russian Armed Forces are trying to disrupt the supply of American weapons to Ukraine, with Bloomberg reporting that strikes are increasingly focusing on military installations and logistics.
“’The Russian military is rapidly moving forward in the eastern direction, while exhausted Ukrainian troops wait for desperately needed American weapons’, the article says.”
The Russian armed forces struck a major railroad hub in the settlement of Borovaya, the Kharkov region, where Ukrainian forces were distributing servicemen, equipment, and ammunition to the frontlines.

Besides targeting power and railroad infrastructure, Russians are targeting foreign fighters. Sunday, Russian drones hit a hotel in the southern port city of Mykolaiv, targeting ‘English-speaking mercenaries’.
A reconnaissance UAV also discovered a temporary deployment point for foreign mercenaries of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in Kharkov.
Russian Telegram channels: “Additional reconnaissance revealed that there were more than 150 mercenaries in two buildings. A high-precision missile strike was carried out at the coordinates of the buildings, as a result of which 40 mercenaries from central and western Europe were instantly demobilized, and more than 55 were injured of varying degrees of severity.
Even ‘the butcher’ now has to concede the repeated defeats.
“Ukraine’s commander-in-chief has said the situation on the frontline has worsened in the face of multiple Russian attacks. Oleksandr Syrsky said Ukrainian forces had withdrawn from positions in the eastern Donetsk region.
[…] ‘The situation at the front has worsened’, Gen Syrsky said in a post on the Telegram messaging service on Sunday.”
Advancing forces made further gains in multiple locations along the eastern front in Ukraine.
“One of Russia’s main efforts is in the Donetsk region. Ukraine’s DeepState monitoring group, which updates daily changes in frontline positions, shows Russian forces pushing forward in eight different locations along 20-25 kms of frontline in one 24-hour period.
[…] Elsewhere, about 180kms (112 miles) to the north, Russia’s forces have also achieved their first successes in almost three months along that part of the frontline that cuts into Kharkov region.
With withdrawals and losses accumulating, military bloggers such as Myroshnykov and the DeepState site have both taken aim at official Ukrainian communications, accusing the [Ukrainian] armed forces of increasingly unrealistic updates from the battlefield.”
Watch: enormous cemetery of Ukrainian forces in Sumy region.
Syrsky acknowledged that Ukraine’s overall situation had deteriorated.
“’The situation at the front has escalated. Trying to seize the strategic initiative and break through the front line, the enemy has concentrated its main efforts in several directions, creating a significant advantage in forces and in means’, he added.”
Russia’s stepped-up tempo may be a precursor to a major offensive attempt later this spring.
Also, a Ukrainian soldier from the Nazi Azov battalion offered a frank analysis of the country’s war effort.
“’No one is willing to join the Armed Forces of Ukraine nowadays’, said the soldier, identified as ‘Niko’, to a local news outlet. The soldier continues to fight on despite having lost one of his legs in combat, insisting that there is no one to replace him.
[…] The soldier added that ‘literally no one’ is willing to go to Ukraine’s front lines.
[…] Fighting-age Ukrainians “do whatever they come up with” to try to escape the draft the soldier added, including “swimming across the Tisa River and drowning themselves in there.” Some 22 Ukrainians have reportedly died attempting to cross the river separating Ukraine from Romania.”
It is estimated that 1.5 million men of military age are currently in hiding across Ukraine. Ukrainian military personnel are also increasingly deserting, with over 100,000 deserters on the run.

“Russia has been rearming faster than the West, has a larger army than before the invasion and has a population several times larger than Ukraine which is trying to draft more men into its army.
Russia says it will achieve all its aims in what it calls the ‘special military operation’ in Ukraine, parts of which Moscow now says it considers to be Russian territory.”
While I’m trying not to talk about the multiple conquests by the Russian forces, one simply can’t be avoided: Russian sources report that after heavy fighting, the settlement of Rabotyno was returned under full control of the Russian Armed Forces. This is the same settlement Ukrainians captured during the failed summer counteroffensive in 2023.
Ukrainian military analyst: “Judging by the footage, the Russians captured most of the village of Rabotyno, which was taken during the summer counter-offensive of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. They hung their flag on a building in the northern part of the village.”

Judge Juan Merchan, a Democrat donor, is presiding over President Donald Trump’s case in New York. (@MSNBC / Twitter)
Radical far-left New York Judge Juan Merchan fined President Donald Trump $9,000 for speaking out in his own defense and violating his gag order in the ongoing lawfare trial in New York City.
Merchan also threatened President Trump with jailing if he continues to publicly defend himself in the case.
The prosecution has yet to define a crime in this latest lawfare case supported by the Biden regime.
Trump is not allowed to speak out in his defense.
But the liberal mainstream media willingly pushed the regime narrative day after day describing the case to the American public in an ongoing string of lies.
‘
America is now a banana republic thanks to the bitter, vile Marxist Democrats.
Judge Juan Merchan found Donald Trump in contempt on Tuesday for violating a gag order nine times, imposing $1,000 fines for each violation.
Manhattan prosecutors had asked the judge to hold Trump in contempt for alleged violations of the order barring him from speaking out against witnesses, jurors, and others.
Under state law, Merchan could fine Trump up to $1,000 or jail him for up to 30 days. The state asked the judge to fine Trump and instruct him to take down offending posts. Notably, the prosecutor in court last week said Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office wasn’t yet asking for incarceration and argued that Trump seemed to be angling for that.
Prosecutors raised the former president’s posts on social media and his campaign website as violating Merchan’s order. One of the allegedly offending posts was one in which Trump purportedly quoted Fox News host Jesse Watters as saying, “They are catching undercover Liberal Activists lying to the Judge in order to get on the Trump Jury.”
Last week, a contentious vote took place in the Massachusetts House of Representatives where a bill aimed at prioritizing U.S. military veterans for shelter assistance over illegal immigrants was defeated.
The bill, known as “Homeless Veterans Prioritization for Shelter Assistance,” was rejected with a vote of 27-129. The majority of Democrats opposed the bill, while all 25 House Republicans, along with two Democrats, supported it.
The Amendment 698, introduced by Republican Minority Leader Bradley Jones as part of House Bill 4600, was intended to give homeless veterans preferential access to the state’s emergency housing assistance program,
Despite the support from Republicans and a small faction of Democrats, the bill was heavily criticized by other Democrats as a political maneuver.
The Democrats believe that migrants who come across the border illegally deserve more treatment than veterans, who have literally put their lives on the line for our country.
The opposition from Democrats was partly based on the argument that non-English speaking illegal immigrants require more substantial support due to language barriers.
“They have the advantage of speaking the language, most of our military folks. So this folks that we’re really working on may not have that. So it’s going to be really difficult for them to say, ‘Yes, I used to be an electrician in my country. I’m just using mine, which is Somalia.’ But that might not really fall into our laws that we have in this country,” said one of the state representatives.

DISGUSTING!
House Democrats Reject Giving Massachusetts Homeless Veterans Preference Over Migrants in Shelter System
Amendment 698, homeless veterans prioritization for shelter assistance, was rejected on a 27-129 roll call vote.
Gov. Maura Healey had previously said the state lacks the space, services, and funding to provide shelter for more than 7,500 families, according to Newsweek. Massachusetts has spent nearly $1 billion on state-run shelters for families and migrants, the Boston Globe reported.
Rep. Gerard Cassidy, the Democrat co-chair of the Joint Committee on Veterans and Federal Affairs told the Fall River Reporter the bill was a political ploy and a bill for veterans will be coming out in May.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, who has moved migrants from his state to the Bay State, called the vote “insanity.”
“It must end,” Abbott said on X, formerly known as twitter. “Illegal immigrants should not be prioritized over our veterans who served our country.”
House Democrats in Massachusetts also voted down a bill that would install a three-month residency requirement for family shelter, prioritizing state residents on a waitlist, the Fall River Reporter said.
Assistant Majority Leader Alice Pesich, a Democrat, told the Fall River Reporter that no families, whether they are new to the state or not, are being put out on the street.
Over recent years, there has been an increase in the number of illegal immigrants in Massachusetts.
According to Pew Research Center, in 2021, there were 220,000 undocumented workers in Massachusetts, which is about 5.5% of the state’s workforce. This means that undocumented residents accounted for 4.3% of the population in 2021, which is an estimated gain of 120,000 undocumented residents since 2010.
El Salvador’s President Nayyib Bukele stunned members of his cabinet on Monday but announcing plans to investigate them all for corruption.
In a public meeting broadcasted on the X platform, Bukele asks his Attorney General to investigate the entire executive branch:
As you can all see everyone here is part of the executive branch except for one person, the Attorney General, who is not part of the executive branch. He is here for a simple reason, I want to ask him in public to investigate everyone sitting here. Retroactively and into the future. I imagine there should be no problem with that.
Someone once asked me, are you not afraid of death? I said, of course, no one wants to die. I don’t want to die. But I am going to die one day like everyone, it is something you cannot escape. 100 years from now, none of us here will still be alive… but if there is one thing I fear and that is leaving a bad legacy.
I won’t be the president that didn’t steal but was surrounded by criminals. I want to be remembered as the president who didn’t steal and who didn’t let anyone else steal. And the one who put whoever did steal in prison. There are a couple who are already there.
Such measures are typical of Bukele, who since taking office in 2019 has launched a brutal yet successful crackdown against corruption and the country’s violent drug gangs.
Back in February, Bukele gave a speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) where he urged attendees to keep up the fight against globalism.
“If you want globalism to die here too, you must be willing to unapologetically fight against everything and everyone that stands for it,” he explained. “Fight for your freedoms, fight for your rights.”
A critical incident has been declared near a Tube station in northeast London after reports a man wielding a sword attacked members of the public and police officers. The man crashed a vehicle into a house in Thurlow Gardens, before reportedly stabbing a number of people, police said.
The 36-year-old was alleged to have attacked members of the public and two police officers before eventually being arrested. The Metropolitan Police were alerted to the incident shortly before 7am this morning.
Fire and rescue crews as well as a number of ambulances were also dispatched to the scene. London Ambulance Service said they treated five people at the scene, and took all five to hospital.
Reports, footage and eyewitness accounts of the attack circulated across social media:
Four people stabbed and slashed by a man carrying a samurai sword in Hainault station in Redbridge Essex this morning.
Some reports are saying the attacker is 15 years old.
4 people severely injured or killed at Hainault station, where a 15 year old wielding a machete has attacked and maybe killed 4 civillians #london#hainault#essex#morning
The man’s motivations for carrying out the attack remain unclear. Meanwhile, British Home Secretary James Cleverly asked people not to discuss the incident online until further information is obtained.
“I am being regularly updated about the incident at Hainault Station this morning,” he wrote on the X platform. “My thoughts are with those who have been affected & thank you to the emergency responders I would urge people not to speculate or share footage online and provide relevant information to the police.”
Two female suspects were arrested at the scene including a 17-year-old.
Officer Joshua Eyer passed away on Monday night from his injuries after being shot in the line of duty while assisting other officers with the apprehension of a suspect.
Officer Joshua Eyer
According to police there was a second shooter. The Daily Mail reported: 'When [officers] approached Hughes they were met by gunfire and returned the gunfire, striking Hughes, who was found deceased in a yard', Jennings said.
Officers received 'additional gunfire' from within the residence, but it is not yet clear whose bullets struck which officers, and how many cops were hit overall.
The Charlotte police released a statement last night.
Charlotte, N.C. – (Monday, April 29, 2024) – On Monday, April 29, 2024, an armed suspect opened fire on law enforcement officers in the 5000 block of Galway Drive in the North Tryon Division. Four Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department officers were shot, one of which succumbed to his injuries. Additionally, four officers from the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force were shot, three of which succumbed to their injuries.
On Monday, April 29, 2024, around 1:30 p.m., the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force, comprised of officers from multiple agencies, was conducting an investigation in the North Tryon Division at a home in the 5000 block of Galway Drive. The preliminary investigation indicates officers were attempting to serve active felony warrants on a male subject. As officers approached, the male subject discharged his firearm striking multiple officers. These officers requested immediate response from other officers. As officers responded, the gunfire continued, striking additional officers.
In total, eight officers were struck during the gunfire. The officers were rushed to area hospitals. Three task force officers were pronounced deceased at the hospital. One of the injured CMPD Officers, Joshua Eyer, a 6-year veteran, fought for his life for several hours before succumbing to his injuries.
The male suspect exited the residence on Galway Drive with a firearm. Law enforcement officers perceived an imminent deadly threat and fired their service weapons striking the suspect in the front yard of the residence.
The CMPD’s Special Weapons and Tactics Team (SWAT) began negotiations with other occupants in the house. Two females exited the residence and were transported to the Law Enforcement Center (LEC) in Uptown (601 E. Trade St.) to be interviewed by detectives.
Upon securing the scene, the suspect was pronounced deceased at the residence. The deceased suspect has been identified as Terry Clark Hughes, Jr, 39. Mr. Hughes was wanted for Possession of a Firearm by Felon and Felony Flee to Elude (2 counts) out of Lincoln County, North Carolina.
The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department, The U.S. Marshals Office, North Carolina Department of Adult Correction, CMPD's Crime Scene Investigations, CMPD’s Operations Command, Victim Services, N.C. State Highway Patrol, Mecklenburg County Sheriff’s Office, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, U.S. Attorney’s Office, Mecklenburg County District Attorney's Homicide Prosecution Team, MEDIC and the Charlotte Fire Department all responded to the scene.
The investigation is being conducted by CMPD’s Homicide Unit. This is an active and ongoing investigation. As is standard procedure with any officer involved shooting, the CMPD’s Internal Affairs Bureau will conduct a separate but parallel investigation.
As additional information develops, it will be released by the CMPD’s Public Affairs Office. For additional information in reference to this case, please refer to the report: 20240429-1333-00.

“Make sure those you follow talk about the surveillance, because everyone who is in the game knows. Make them either damage the machine by saying it, or reveal they are part of it by staying silent.

Over at Texas Arcane’s Substack, in a paid post for subscribers, he details how they nearly got him with the Beam, and it appears a MRSA attack as well. Obviously, I am glad Tex made it. I would add two things to this. One, I just had some joker who appeared to be wearing a latex old-guy mask, walk by and appear to smear something on my mailbox handle. There are transdermal carriers like DMSO which make it tricky, as you can touch something and get drugged or contaminated. I was not playing to that level before, obviously now I am aware. So things are accelerating, those who are active against this thing will want to be super paranoid, as it appears we are still accelerating as we head toward November.
The second thing, and this is important – try to get free of the beam, at least while you sleep, even if you do not feel it. I began getting some kind of harsh vibration targeting a spot inside my head, and so I worked to minimize all exposure to anything I could, desperately. In the process, I have seen my energy increase, and minor health complaints abate, even as I am being hit by an all-over thing on my house during the day, and my sleep is shit due to the measures I am taking. For the past few years, I think I was getting a beaming beyond the vibrations, probably all night at a low enough level I did not explicitly feel it, which was degrading me. They probably designed their surveillance tech to do that, so they can claim they were just doing surveillance, while at the same time they are draining you.
I would bet even when he does not feel it, Tex is being degraded too.
If you are a target of this thing, I now think the procedure, first and foremost, is to get some measure of physical degradation on you to advance their position relative to you, before they begin doing anything else. You will not feel it, beyond a sense of exhaustion, a diminished ability to put on muscle, and maybe a headache here and there when you get up. It is a very powerful tech advantage, and I am guessing we will find it was rolled out a lot more than we thought, all throughout the country. I will bet a lot of people are getting it, just to prevent them from spreading their wings, and taking off and getting clear of the rat race. They want everyone dying on that treadmill for them.
Peter Li, our chief technical officer, was the victim of a 2006 attack.
Three Asian thugs broke into his humble home in suburban Atlanta. They tied him up, blindfolded him, and wrapped his head in a quilt before slashing him with a knife and beating him.
Peter passed out and almost died.
This attack took place shortly after The Epoch Times broke a major story on how the Chinese communist regime illegally harvests the organs of prisoners of faith in China for profit…
It is a dangerous world. You should be a little dangerous too given what is coming. This country is not getting freer.
Rand Paul and Tommy Tuberville stood aside and did not show up to vote against the Ukraine aid package. I think Trump said to let it pass so when Ukraine falls, it will be fully blamed on Biden. But the truth is, we should be launching the war to free the nation, not giving our enemies everything and hoping Trump will not be defeated by the rigging in the fall. Just reveal the surveillance and start the festivities.
Protesters call for Islamic state in Germany: ‘Caliphate is the solution.’ I wonder if they are thinking of trying a repeat of WWII, and asking Americans to ship their guns to Europe, to support our people over there in the coming war. As I recall, the Brits took all our guns, and as soon as they didn’t need them, they dumped them all in the Channel.

Evidence Shows that Rep. Adam Schiff, who is running for US Senate in California, has committed election fraud, has ineligibly voted, and/or committed mortgage fraud.
One year ago, in April 2023, we reported that an ethics complaint was filed against corrupt US Rep. Adam Schiff. Today, we can report that Schiff’s corrupt and even criminal acts involve much more.
US Congressman Adam Schiff from California is in deep trouble. An ethics complaint has been filed against Schiff by a concerned citizen alleging that Schiff has committed election and voter fraud claiming he was both a citizen of California and Maryland.
A concerned citizen from the state of California uncovered what is believed to be crimes committed by Adam Schiff.
In 2000 Schiff was elected to Congress and has served as a US House member from the state of California ever since. Schiff reportedly purchased a home in Maryland with his wife in 2003 stating they would occupy this home for 12 consecutive months as their “primary residence”. Despite this claim, Schiff continued to vote in California.
Schiff refinanced his home in 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2013 claiming the Maryland home was his primary residence. In 2009, a House Ethics investigation claimed that Schiff did this and Schiff claimed it was an error and he repaid the exempt taxes to the state of Maryland.
A fellow member of Congress was charged with criminal counts for doing the same thing, Steven Watkins, of Oklahoma.
In addition, the amount of the home mortgage has remained basically the same this entire time. Congress should look into this as well.
When asked about his residence in Maryland a couple of months ago while on the campaign trail running for US Senate in California, Schiff called it a "non-issue." He added that his primary residence was in California and neglected to mention that he had repeatedly claimed his Maryland home was his primary residence.
It turns out that there is much, much more to this story.
Maryland Code §7-401 defines mortgage fraud as “(d)any action made by a person with the intent to defraud that involves (1) knowingly making any deliberate misstatement, misrepresentation, or omission during the mortgage lending process with the intent that the misstatement, misrepresentation, or omission relied on by a mortgage lender, borrower, or any other party to the mortgage lending process;” or “(6) filing or causing to be filed in the land records in the county where a residential real property is located, any document relating to a mortgage loan that the person knows to contain a deliberate misstatement, misrepresentation, or omission”.
Adam Schiff, despite claiming to live and represent the people in the state of California, filed and reaffirmed through refinancing documents, his primary residence at 8204 Windsor View Terrace, Potomac Maryland, 28054. Adam Schiff’s on the record acknowledgement of the mortgage document filings (primary residence in Maryland) during a House Ethics hearing via claim of a “mistake” evidences acknowledgement of mortgage fraud.
Schiff received better rates on his mortgage on the Maryland property by claiming it was his primary residence as opposed to his secondary residence.
At the same time that Schiff claimed his property in Maryland was his primary residence, he must have claimed that he was a resident of California to run for the US House in California.
False Registration
The Heritage Foundation has an excellent piece describing election integrity where it defines various types of "voter fraud". False registrations are a type of voter fraud. "Voting under fraudulent voter registrations that either use a phony name and a real or fake address or claim residence in a particular jurisdiction where the registered voter does not actually live and is not entitled to vote."
Adam and Eve Schiff sold their California home at 425 Amhurst Dr, Burbank CA in May of 2003 just prior to the purchase of their “primary residence” at 8204 Windsor View Terrace, Potomac Maryland, 28054 in June of 2003. In 2009, around the same time as a House Ethics hearing pertaining to the Maryland residence, Adam and Eve Schiff purchased the condominium at 250 N First St #427, Burbank CA, 95102, subsequently registering to vote in California at that address. It is important to note that the condominium is 650 sqft, has 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom. It is also of note that Adam and Eve Schiff had two minor children of approximately middle school age at the time of purchase.
California Elections Code §2022 “If a person moves to another state with the intention of making it his or her domicile, the voter loses his or her domicile in this state”. California Elections Code §2026 “The domicile of a Member of the Legislature or a Representative in Congress of the United States shall be conclusively presumed to be at the residence address indicated on that person's currently filed affidavit of registration”. Adam and Eve Schiff, having sold their home in California in 2003 and subsequently purchasing a home in Maryland as their primary residence, remained voters in California despite being non-residents from 2003 until 2009, the date in which they purchased the Condominium at 250 N First St #427, Burbank CA, 95102. California Domicile records pertaining to change in voter registration are absent / could not be located, implying voter registration fraud between 2003 and 2009.
In order to qualify as a candidate to represent California in the US House of Representatives (and/or Senate), one must be 25 years of age, a US Citizen, and a Resident in the state of California. For election years 2004, 2006, and 2008, Adam Schiff was not a resident of the State of California, evidenced by the 2003 sale of his home at 425 Amhurst Dr, Burbank CA and subsequent purchase of “Primary Residence” at 8204 Winsor View Terrace, Potomac Maryland, 28054. California Election Code §349(a) “’residence’ for voting purposes means a person’s domicile (b) The domicile of a person is that place in which his or her habitation is fixed, wherein the person has the intention of remaining, and to which, whenever he or she is absent, the person has the intention of returning. At a given time, a person may have only one domicile”. Adam Schiff, knowingly and willfully registering as a candidate while being a resident of Maryland would constitute a violation subject to California Election Code §18203 “[a]ny person who files or submits for filing a nomination paper or declaration of candidacy knowing that it or any part of it has been made falsely is punishable by a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars ($1,000) or by imprisonment. . .”. Further, Adam and Eve Schiff remained registered voters in California despite being residents of Maryland from 2003. CA Elec Code §18560(a) [a person] “Not being entitled to vote at an election, fraudulently votes or fraudulently attempts to vote at that election” is subject to imprisonment pursuant to subdivision (h) of Section 1170 of the Penal Code for 16 months or two or three years, or in a county jail not exceeding one year.
Ineligible Voting
Heritage describes ineligible voting as follows:
Illegal registration and voting by individuals who are not U.S. citizens, are convicted felons, or are otherwise not eligible to vote.
The report below states:
It has been understood that Adam Schiff and Eve Schiff, as residents of Maryland, have been voting absentee in California. CA Elec Code §18578 “Any person who applies for, or who votes or attempts to vote, a vote by mail ballot by fraudulently signing the name of a fictitious person, or of a regularly qualified voter, or of a person who is not qualified to vote, is guilty of a felony punishable by imprisonment pursuant to subdivision (h) of Section 1170 of the Penal Code for 16 months or two or three years, by a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars ($1,000), or by both that fine and imprisonment.”
Monroe County District Attorney Sandra Doorley publicly apologized this Monday following a heated exchange with a police officer during a traffic stop that escalated into a contentious moment caught on camera.
In the video, which has since gone viral, Doorley can be seen attempting to use her official position to circumvent standard traffic enforcement procedures.
The incident, which was recorded by an officer’s body camera, occurred on Phillips Road in the Town of Webster, as previously reported by The Gateway Pundit.
Doorley was documented driving at a speed of 55 miles per hour in a 35 mile-per-hour zone. Instead of stopping immediately, the DA continued to her home, with the officer in pursuit, lights and siren activated.
The footage made public by the Town of Webster Police Department shows an arrogant Doorley who, at various points during the interaction, abused her power and tried to bully an officer, suggesting her position as District Attorney could influence the outcome of the traffic stop.
Watch the short version here:
NEW: DA Sandra Doorley, who fled from police because she thought she should get special treatment, has reportedly deleted her X account because you all were too mean to her.
Remarkable!
‘Corrupt Karen’ has fled social media just like she fled the cop after going viral for… pic.twitter.com/VndaXrl8p5
Following widespread criticism and a call for accountability, Doorley addressed the public with a statement and a video in which she expressed remorse and the importance of adhering to the law.
In her statement, Doorley acknowledged her lapse in judgment, stating:
“On Monday, April 22, 2024, I was driving home following a busy day at work. I admit that I was not paying attention to my speed on Phillips Road in the Town of Webster. Less than half a mile from my neighborhood, I noticed a Webster Police car behind me. Once I realized that the intention of the car was to pull me over, I called the Webster Police Chief to inform him that I was not a threat and that I would speak to the Officer at my house down the street. The Webster Police Officer followed me to my house and issued me a speeding ticket for my speed of 55mph in a 35mph zone. I acknowledged that I was speeding and I accepted the ticket.
By 1:00PM the following day, I pled guilty and sent the ticket to the Webster Town Court because I believe in accepting responsibility for my actions and had no intention of using my position to receive a benefit. Nobody, including your District Attorney, is above the rule of law, even traffic laws. Anybody who knows me understands without a doubt that I have dedicated my entire 33 year career to the safety of this community. My work to ensure the safety and respect of law enforcement is well proven time and time again. I stand by my work and stand by my commitment to the public safety of Monroe County.”
In her video apology on Monday, Doorley cited stress from work as a factor for her non-cooperative behavior, including dealing with multiple homicide cases and a personal health scare within her family.
“Last Monday, I failed you and the standards that I hold myself to. And for that, I am so sorry. What I did was wrong. No excuses. I take full responsibility for my actions. I fell short of the values I’ve held for my entire 33-year career. I didn’t treat this officer with the respect that he deserved. All police officers deserve respect. I am truly and sincerely sorry.”
“I had just come from work. I was dealing with three homicides that occurred over the weekend. I watched a video where an innocent cab driver was executed, and I was still reeling from a frightening medical concern that my husband received that afternoon.”
“But we all had bad days and stress, and it was wrong for me to take it out on an officer who was simply doing his job. While I previously apologized to him, I will say it again. I’m sorry. Police already have a tough job, and that day I made this officer’s job harder. To the community, I owe you full transparency.”
In terms of rectifying her mistake, Doorley outlined several steps she is taking to ensure accountability.
“Here’s what I’m doing to hold myself accountable. First, I already pled guilty to the speeding ticket, and I will willingly pay the fine.”
“Next, I’m referring the entire matter to a district attorney from another county for review and will fully cooperate with that investigation. I am going to self-report this incident to the grievance committee, and I will cooperate with their investigation. Finally, if one of my assistant district attorneys had acted this way, I would have disciplined them, so I’m disciplining myself. I will take ethics training to remind myself that professionalism matters. I’ve been humbled by my own stupidity, and I am fully to blame. I will make this right. I ask for your forgiveness,” she concluded.
Panic in the media is real. The propagandists are terrified.
MSNBC anchor Nicolle Wallace expressed deep concerns during a recent broadcast, suggesting that her position at the network—and the state of the White House Correspondents’ Dinner—could be in jeopardy if former President Donald Trump were to be re-elected.
This revelation comes as President Trump takes to Truth Social to lambaste Joe Biden over his “disastrous” performance at the recent White House Correspondents’ Dinner.
Trump, who skipped all Correspondents’ Dinners during his presidency, didn’t hold back in his critique: “The White House Correspondents’ Dinner was really bad. Colin Jost BOMBED, and Crooked Joe was an absolute disaster! Doesn’t get much worse than this!”
Wallace appeared visibly shaken by the implications of a Trump return to the Oval Office. On her MSNBC show, Wallace voiced concerns that not only her role but also the White House Correspondents’ Dinner and the broader institution of a free press could be under threat, which is an absolute exaggeration.
Freedom of the press has come under greater attack under the Biden regime, with increased levels of censorship and fact-checking compared to the Trump presidency.
“Depending on what happens in November, this time next year, I might not be sitting here,” Wallace said.
“There might not be a White House Correspondents Dinner or a free press. While our democracy wouldn’t exactly fall apart immediately without it, the real threat looms larger: A candidate with outward disdain, not just for a free press but for all of our freedoms. And for the rule of law itself.”

At least they're starting to come to terms with it. Acceptance is the last stage of grief so I'm proud of these little propagandists for admitting it's over. MSM is, in fact, dead and it's just time to move on.
A deceased newborn baby girl was found wrapped in a towel and dumped in a University of Tampa trash bin on Sunday.
The infant’s mother has been located and is now hospitalized, but her name has not been released to the public.
It is unclear what condition the baby’s body was in or her cause of death.
The case remains under investigation and no charges have been made public as of Tuesday evening.
“The loss of a child is always a tragedy,” said Chief Bercaw in a press release from the Tampa Police Department. “As our department actively investigates this incident, we want all expectant mothers to know there are resources available.”
Florida has a Safe Haven Law in which parents can anonymously surrender their infants within seven days of their birth. The deadline is being extended to 30 days beginning on July 1.
The Tampa Police Department press release added, “Florida has a Safe Haven Law, which allows parents to anonymously surrender an unharmed newborn infant seven days old or younger to any Fire Station, EMS station, or hospital staffed by full-time emergency medical technicians, paramedics, or firefighters. There will be no questions asked, and no charges will be filed for surrendering a newborn under the Safe Haven Law unless the infant has signs of abuse or neglect.”
Those seeking to surrender a baby can call the National Safe Haven Alliance Hotline at 888.510.BABY (2229) to be guided to the nearest safe drop location.
Joe Biden has been a disaster for the American economy and you can tell that people know this because it’s being reflected in the polls.
A new CBS News poll finds that half of voters in swing states believe the economy is worse under Biden.
Almost everything Biden has done from day one has hurt the economy and the buying power of working people. From the moment he shut down the Keystone Pipeline, he has repeatedly made decisions that affected the economy in negative ways.
CBS Poll: Half of Swing State Voters Say Economy Got Worse Under Biden
About half of voters in swing states Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Michigan believe the economy got worse under President Joe Biden’s management, a CBS News poll found Sunday.
With the economy ranked as the top 2024 issue, Biden’s poor marks in the three key swing states are terrible news for the president’s reelection hopes.
Seven states, (Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, and North Carolina) will decide the president, longtime Democrat adviser Doug Sosnik wrote in the New York Times. If Trump wins one or more of Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin, Biden’s chances of obtaining 270 electoral votes become narrower, he said.
Recent polling shows former President Donald Trump leads in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
Below is the share of voters who say the economy became worse under Biden, CBS News reported:

The Islamo-Communist revolution taking place on college campuses took another step forward overnight with the takeover of Hamilton Hall at Columbia University in New York City. Dozens of Hamas supporters who have been staging a campus ‘occupy protest’ against Israel and the United States smashed windows and stormed the building apparently unimpeded by law enforcement while hundreds more gathered outside the building to secure the entrances.
The action by the protesters took place 56 years to the day, April 30, 1968, when police forced an end to a week-long student occupation of Hamilton Hall. Since then, Hamilton Hall has been the sight of protest actions, such as a 1985 protest calling for divestment from South Africa.
April 30, 1968 Police arrest 86 students occupying Hamilton Hall—out of 700 arrests made as negotiations broke down. Faculty linked arms to protect students

Taking over Hamilton Hall as done in 1968, Columbia students unfurl a banner that reads "Hind's Hall," in reference to Hind Rajab, a six-year-old girl killed by Israeli forces. Hundreds of students cheer as the banner is revealed, erupting into chants to "Free Palestine." pic.twitter.com/Oi8WgdZmqf
BREAKING: Dozens of protesters occupied Hamilton Hall in the early hours of Tuesday morning, moving metal gates to barricade the doors, blocking entrances with wooden tables and chairs, and zip-tying doors shut.https://t.co/2m3Y0Urplj
— Columbia Daily Spectator (@ColumbiaSpec) April 30, 2024
At around 1:28 a.m., protesters draped a Palestinian flag from a window on the third floor. Minutes later, protesters used newspapers to cover the windows on the doors. Protesters unfurled a banner from the leftmost side of Hamilton, reading “Gaza Calls Columbia Falls,” at around 1:38 a.m.
From the Hamilton balcony, protesters unfurled another banner at around 1:40 a.m., reading “Hind’s Hall.” The name refers to Hind Rajab, a six-year-old Palestinian who was killed by the Israeli military in Gaza on Jan. 29.
“We will honor all the martyrs, all the parents, mothers, fathers,” protesters chanted. “We will honor all the martyrs, all the children, sons, and daughters.”
The protesters on the balcony led several call-and-response chants with those gathered outside the building. Protesters chanted “Columbia, you will see, Palestine is almost free” and “This building is now liberated.”
Following the chants, the protesters announced that they would occupy Hamilton until “Columbia meets every one of our demands.”
At around 1:56 a.m., protesters draped another banner from the top of the building’s facade that read “Intifada.”
Protesters began chanting “no divestment, no commencement” at around 2:23 a.m. Minutes later, protesters unfurled a fourth banner which read “Student Intifada” from a Hamilton window facing the Sundial.
UPDATE: Press release by the occupiers, “Resistance is justified in the movement for liberation”:
Joe Scarborough and Mika of MSNBC’s ‘Morning Joe’ had a recent meltdown over the insane protests happening on college campuses, because they’re worried that these displays are going to help elect Trump.
They might have a point. People are sick and tired of the left’s behavior and have noticed that the left riots whether Democrats win or not. If they’re going to behave this way no matter the outcome, they will be ignored and more people will back Trump for the economic benefits to the country.
Joe talks about the many similarities to 1968, when the Democrats lost big.
Oh Noes! Joe Scarborough Frets That Ongoing Pro-Hamas Demonstrations Will ‘Elect Donald Trump!’
Is Joe concerned about Jewish students at Columbia University who are afraid to leave their apartments? Is he concerned about the potential for violence? Is he worried about the disruption of classes?
Nope, none of the above.
What really worries Scarborough is that the failure of left-wing university administrators to quell the demonstrations might lead to the election of the Devil’s spawn —Donald Trump — in November.
Oh, the humanity!
Mika kicked off the festivities on Monday’s edition of “Morning Joe.”
Ahead, the latest on the protests over Gaza that are spreading to more and more college campuses.
And, we’re going to have an exclusive, first look at Forbes’ list of the new Ivies, universities who are poised to replace the elite institutions, in part because of their handling of the protest. It is a much bigger story…
And I’ve got to say, just the absolute weakness of the administration, the cowardice of the administration, and, unfortunately, on these elite colleges, having people that are now running these elite colleges on faculty boards that, that, that burned down college campuses in the 1960s, that were responsible for the election in part of Richard Nixon in 1968 because of the chaos on college campuses, because of the chaos in Chicago.

Virginia Commonwealth University has become the latest epicenter of violent protests, as pro-Hamas supporters occupied parts of the campus, leading to a tense standoff with riot police. Authorities issued a shelter-in-place order for all students.
The confrontation began Monday morning when a group of student protesters established what they called a “Liberation Zone” outside the James Branch Cabell Library on VCU’s Monroe Park campus. The group displayed Palestinian flags and chanted “Free Palestine,” demanding an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and calling for VCU to sever all financial ties with Israel.
As the day progressed, tents were erected, and protesters fortified their position by forming a barrier around the zone.
As the day progressed, the situation intensified with pro-Hamas supporters occupying the library and courtyard. Police responded by deploying tear gas and pepper spray after protesters hurled objects at officers.
Social media posts showed tense standoffs between law enforcement and demonstrators, with the latter demanding that VCU disclose and divest any financial ties to Israel and protect pro-Palestinian speech on campus.

The evening saw the police making multiple arrests and a trash truck arriving to clear the makeshift encampments. Despite the police’s efforts to disperse the crowd, chants continued, and the number of demonstrators reportedly grew.
“Officers have moved into position and disassembled the makeshift barricade. Pepper spray has been deployed and protesters threw bottles and other projectiles at officers.”

George Stephanopoulos, the former Bill Clinton staffer who is somehow now the political director of ABC News, opened his Sunday show this week with a mini rant about how abnormal the 2024 election is and how supposedly abnormal Trump is as a candidate.
To prove his point, George cites all of the sham investigations, court cases and flimsy allegations that Democrats have made against Trump.
He inadvertently admitted that all of the things Democrats are doing to Trump is not normal.
And remember, this is a guy who made a career off of covering up scandals for Bill Clinton.
Liberal Media Scream: Could you cry more, George Stephanopoulos?
For years, George Stephanopoulos ran block and worse for former President Bill Clinton. First, it was Gennifer Flowers, and then Travelgate and Whitewater. Multiple other scandals followed.
His boss got away with most and didn’t face the music until he was finally impeached for lying about the Monica Lewinsky sex scandal.
But on Sunday, in an editorial to lead off his ABC Sunday talk show, the former Clinton spokesman ripped into former President Donald Trump, who is facing several court cases for what some legal analysts see as political attacks. That every move Trump makes is hit by the media or added to his legal troubles isn’t enough for Stephanopoulos.
Instead, and the reason he’s our feature for this week’s Liberal Media Scream, he wants Trump treated differently, claiming that the former president has pushed the nation to the brink of civil war despite now being the candidate most people want to win in November, according to CNN.

The Satanic Temple (TST) has announced plans to deploy its ministers as chaplains in public schools across the state following the House’s recent legislation.
Senate Bill 36, which permits the presence of volunteer chaplains within educational institutions, has passed the House and now awaits Senate approval.
Oklahoma, currently under Republican control in both the legislative and executive branches, might see the bill enacted as soon as November 1 if it passes the Senate.
The proposed bill stipulates rigorous checks for those aspiring to be school chaplains. Background checks are mandatory and individuals with a history as registered sex offenders or felony convictions are disqualified from the role. Additionally, any form of child abuse, negligence, or conduct deemed morally questionable can result in termination, KTUL reported.
Tulsa World reported that SB 36 would permit districts to hire chaplains, whether paid or volunteer. These requirements include an endorsement from a “faith group” confirming that the individual is:
A minister, rabbi, priest, imam, lay leader, or similar functionary of the faith group;
Qualified morally, intellectually, and emotionally to serve as a chaplain; and
Sensitive to religious pluralism and able to provide for the free exercise of religion by all students.
Representative Kevin West, R-Moore, who sponsored the bill in the House, likens the role of school chaplains to those serving in military or emergency services, emphasizing the potential for chaplains to assist with personal struggles related to peer pressure, family, and emotional distress.
“A lot of the topics that chaplains wind up talking to people about are peer pressure, family issues, anger, grief, and loss,” West said, according to Tulsa World. “Teachers are tested at the same level of stress and anxiety as first responders. One thing that’s missing that’s available to first responders? A chaplain.”
TST has seized this opportunity to promote “religious plurality and community service.”
“While we would prefer states to invest in professional counselors over unlicensed religious support for students, we are prepared to adapt to these legislative conditions,” said Rachel Chambliss, TST’s Executive Director of Operations.
“We are committed to offering compassionate guidance to students who come to us so that we can help make positive changes in their lives by listening to their needs and providing support.
According to Chambliss, having TST Ministers in the state’s school system would aid in equal religious representation.
Opponents argued that trained counselors and psychologists are a better solution, if that is the goal.
They said SB 36, at best, will have minimal impact. At worst, said Rep. Mickey Dollens, D-Oklahoma City, it is an attempt to further insert “Christian nationalism, Dominionism, the New Apostolic Reformation and the Seven Mountain Tenants” into public schools.
At a more basic level, opponents were concerned that bringing in a chaplain from one faith or faction would lead to community quarrels and create legal liabilities.
There was also some concern about the effect on faith.
“The quickest way to kill and erode the value of religious faith in Oklahoma is to cloak it in the coercive power of the state,” said Rep. John Waldron, D-Tulsa.
“History tells us that when you give the power of the state to religion you degrade them both,” he said.
Former President Donald Trump has confirmed a reconciliation meeting with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, indicating a potential alliance in their efforts for the ‘Make America Great Again’ movement.
The Gateway Pundit reported the two political heavyweights, who have been at odds since a fiercely contested Republican primary, met for several hours on Sunday.
According to a post by Trump on Truth Social, the meeting took place at the scenic Shell Bay Club in Hollywood, Florida, facilitated by Steve Witkoff, a mutual friend and influential real estate broker.
Trump expressed satisfaction with the meeting, noting, “I am very happy to have the full and enthusiastic support of Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida. We had a great meeting yesterday. The conversation mostly concerned how we would work closely together to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN.”
Trump also highlighted the ongoing success of Florida under DeSantis’s leadership, emphasizing his appreciation for DeSantis’s commitment to the country’s future.

This meeting is the first known reconciliation since the end of the primaries, where both parties engaged in personal attacks, creating a rift within the Republican Party. In January, after withdrawing from the race, DeSantis endorsed Trump, but the relationship remained strained until this latest development.
The gathering was a strategic move orchestrated by allies of both Trump and DeSantis, who are keen to mend fences. Steve Witkoff played a crucial role in bridging the gap between the two figures, which could mark a new chapter in the GOP landscape.
Despite previous acrimony, the meeting was reportedly amicable, with DeSantis agreeing to support Trump’s campaign, which is currently trailing behind Joe Biden in fundraising efforts. Trump’s team is optimistic that DeSantis will not only endorse Trump but also actively participate in fundraising activities for the upcoming campaign.
This alliance has reignited speculation about DeSantis potentially being considered for the vice-presidential slot on Trump’s ticket. Although Trump had previously acknowledged DeSantis as a potential running mate, many of Trump’s staff and supporters still harbor resentment towards the Florida Governor for turning his back on Trump.
Furthermore, DeSantis had explicitly rejected the idea of being a vice-presidential candidate, reaffirming this stance in an interview on ‘Your World with Neil Cavuto.’
What is clear from Trump’s enthusiastic social media post is that both leaders are looking to the future, with Trump teasing, “November 5th is a BIG DAY!!!”
A massive 78 percent majority of Americans believe social media companies have too much political power.
The Pew Research Center survey released on Monday revealed that the issue concerns both sides of the aisle, with 84 percent of Republicans and 74 percent of Democrats concerned about these companies’ influence.
The pollsters found that “Republicans and independents who lean toward the Republican Party (84%) are more likely than Democrats and Democratic leaners (74%) to think these companies have too much political power.”
The report adds, “While Republicans’ opinions have changed little since 2020, this view has grown more common among Democrats over the past four years: 74% of Democrats believe social media companies have too much power and influence in politics, up from 63% in 2020.”
Just 16 percent of Americans believe social media companies have the right amount of influence, and four percent said they have too little.
Additionally, “Americans are far more likely to say social media has a negative rather than positive impact on the country. Roughly two-thirds (64%) think social media has a mostly negative effect on the way things are going in the country today.”
Only 10 percent of respondents said that social media has a mostly positive impact on society.
“Majorities in both political parties see social media’s impact on the country negatively, though Republicans remain more wary than Democrats (71% vs. 59%). That said, a growing number of Democrats believe these platforms have a mostly bad impact on the country, rising to 59% in our current survey, up from 53% in 2020.”
Most surveyed said they believe social media platforms censor people based on political bias.
“Roughly eight-in-ten U.S. adults (83%) say it’s very or somewhat likely that these platforms intentionally censor political viewpoints they find objectionable, up from 77% in 2022. Just 17% in the current survey think this is not likely the case.”
The poll found that over ninety percent of Republicans believe social media platforms censor people based on politics.
Majorities in both parties believe political censorship is likely occurring on social media, but more Republicans hold this view. Fully 93% of Republicans say it’s likely that social media sites intentionally censor political viewpoints that they find objectionable, including 66% who say that this is very likely happening.
By comparison, 74% of Democrats think this is likely occurring, with 25% saying there’s a strong possibility this is occurring.
The pollsters surveyed 10,133 U.S. adults from February 7-11, 2024.
It seems that the never-ending British soap opera regarding the flights of migrants to Rwanda is about to end, and the deportations are set to begin.
UK’s Home Office reportedly launched a major operation to detain asylum seekers across the UK today (29) – a date that’s weeks earlier than expected – in preparation for their deportation to migrant camps in Rwanda.
Asylum seekers who turn up at immigration service offices or bail appointments will be held, and migrants will also be picked up nationwide in a surprise two-week operation.
“Detainees will be immediately transferred to detention centers, which have already been prepared for the operation, and held until they are put on planes to Rwanda. Some will be put on the first flight due to take off this summer.
The Home Office said ratification of the prime minister’s Safety of Rwanda Act meant ‘the government is entering the final phase of operationalizing this landmark policy to tackle illegal migration and stop the boats’.
It added: ‘At some stage inevitably this will include detaining people in preparation for the first flight, which is set to take off to Rwanda in 10 to 12 weeks. It would be inappropriate to comment further on operational activity.”
PM Rishi Sunak has endlessly repeated that he was focused on ‘stopping the boats’, determined to get the Rwanda plan going.
“Speaking on Monday before the Lords and Commons sat through the night to pass the safety of Rwanda (asylum and immigration) bill, Sunak said: ‘To detain people while we prepare to remove them, we’ve increased detention spaces to 2,200.
‘To quickly process claims, we’ve got 200 trained, dedicated caseworkers ready and waiting. To deal with any legal cases quickly and decisively, the judiciary have made available 25 courtrooms and identified 150 judges who could provide over 5,000 sitting days’.”
The first deportation flight to Rwanda will take off in June, after MPs and peers last week finally passed the Safety of Rwanda Bill. It was known after ministers let documents lying around in Downing Street for the press to see which contained the date.
Meanwhile, Irish deputy PM has said people are crossing from Northern Ireland because they fear being sent to east Africa.
“The UK will not take back asylum seekers who have crossed into Ireland as the Rwanda deportation scheme gets going, Rishi Sunak has said.”
The prime minister said the UK was ‘not interested’ in accepting people back from Ireland.
“‘We’re not going to accept returns from the EU via Ireland when the EU doesn’t accept returns back to France where illegal migrants are coming from’, he told ITV. ‘Of course we’re not going to do that’.”
The standoff developed after the Irish government announced that it plans emergency legislation ‘to allow it to return asylum seekers to the UK’.
“Mr Sunak has argued any increased flow of people into Ireland shows his Rwanda policy is working.
The UK government is paying £500m to fund more border patrols to prevent small boat crossings to the UK, and a new detention centre in France, following a new deal between the two countries in 2022.”
Customs and Border Protection arrested a Mexican national at the Peace Bridge border crossing in New York after finding child pornography in his belongings.
CBP agents encountered Marco Barajas Barron, 52, at the Port of Buffalo crossing on April 26.
In a press release about the arrest, CBP explained that Barron “was operating a commercial vehicle and was refused entry to Canada after a wrong turn. Upon arriving at the CBP primary inspection area, the driver was escorted to secondary for further inspection.”
“During the secondary inspection, CBP officers verified the identity of the driver and discovered additional information indicating suspected illegal activity,” the press release continued. “Further investigation revealed that Barajas Barron possessed child pornographic material.”

It is unclear what medium the material was on or how agents discovered it.
“Our CBP officers are among the best at identifying nefarious actors as part of their border security mission,” said Buffalo Port Director Gaetano Cordone. “We continue to successfully collaborate with our local law enforcement partners to keep our communities safe.”
The driver and suspected child pornographic material were turned over to the Buffalo Police Department after being processed by CBP.
The spat between the city and the Girl Scout and her mom began when the code enforcement officer asked the mom, Erica Fairbanks McCarroll, if she had the landowner’s permission to sell from the city’s Pine Avenue spot and park a vehicle in a driveway there.
Puzzled, Fairbanks McCarroll didn’t answer the officer’s question because the spot where she parked was in the driveway of her parents.
Nonetheless, the officer snapped photographs of their sales activity between March 13 and 15 to prove that Emma McCarroll had set up the stand, and mom had parked illegally in the driveway, which straddled the public sidewalk on Pine Avenue.
“I personally don’t think she ever understood that I was related to the Fairbanks, my parents who own the driveway,” Fairbanks McCarroll told the paper.
Pinedale Mayor Matt Murdock told the paper that the mother was told to move and had refused to do so.
“Sometimes I just think that government can be unreasonable,” Emma McCarroll said. “It wasn’t reasonable to be fined $400 for selling cookies in front on my grandparent’s property.”
A federal appeals court on Monday ruled West Virginia and North Carolina must pay for transgender healthcare.
The Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled 8-6 “in the case involving coverage of gender-affirming care by North Carolina’s state employee health plan and the coverage of gender-affirming surgery by West Virginia Medicaid.”
The case is likely headed to the US Supreme Court.
West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey vowed to take the fight to the Supreme Court.
“Decisions like this one, from a court dominated by Obama and Biden-appointees, cannot stand: we’ll take this to the Supreme Court and win,” Patrick Morrisey said.

West Virginia and North Carolina’s refusal to cover certain health care for transgender people with government-sponsored insurance is discriminatory, a federal appeals court ruled Monday in a case likely headed to the U.S. Supreme Court.
The Richmond-based 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled 8-6 in the case involving coverage of gender-affirming care by North Carolina’s state employee health plan and the coverage of gender-affirming surgery by West Virginia Medicaid.
“The coverage exclusions facially discriminate on the basis of sex and gender identity, and are not substantially related to an important government interest,” Judge Roger Gregory, first appointed by former President Bill Clinton and re-appointed by former President George W. Bush, wrote in the majority opinion.
The ruling follows a decision earlier this month by 4th Circuit judges that West Virginia’s transgender sports ban violates the rights of a teen athlete under Title IX, the federal civil rights law that prohibits sex-based discrimination in schools.
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi snapped at MSNBC’s Katy Tur after she was fact-checked in real time about Trump’s jobs numbers.
Pelosi falsely claimed Joe Biden created 9 million jobs. This is a bold lie.
“Joe Biden created 9 million jobs in his term in office,” Pelosi said wagging her finger. “Donald Trump has the worst record of job loss of any president. So we just have to make sure people know!”
“That was a global pandemic,” Katy Tur said.
Pelosi flipped out.
“He had the worst record of any president! We’ve had other concerns in our country! If you want to be an apologist for Donald Trump that may be your role, but it ain’t mine!”
Katy Tur interrupted: “I don’t think that anyone can accuse me of that!”

Democrat officials forced businesses to close down during the Covid pandemic in 2020.
Millions of people going back to work after the pandemic ended is not job creation.
Joe Biden hasn’t created any jobs for American citizens. All jobs recovered post-Covid under Joe Biden went to foreign-born workers – including illegal aliens!.
Per the Center for Immigration Studies: All employment growth has gone to the foreign-born. 183,000 fewer U.S.-born Americans are working than in 2019, before Covid. Yet, the number of immigrants (legal and illegal) working is up 2.9 million over 2019.

Mayor Tiffany Henyard of Dolton, Illinois, speaks to President Joe Biden. (Tiffany Henyard / Instagram screen shot)
The law firm representing America’s “Worst Mayor,” Tiffany Henyard, and the Village of Dolton in a slew of lawsuits is asking to withdraw from those cases.
The Gateway Pundit reported that Dolton, Illinois, Mayor Tiffany Henyard is under FBI investigation for abusing her power after she shut down businesses that didn’t donate to her campaign.
According to Dolton citizens, Henyard uses local police to target businesses that don’t contribute to her.
She has also been accused of stealing charitable funds and even using taxpayer dollars for personal use.
On Saturday night, FOX 32 broke the news that the FBI has dropped a new round of subpoenas in its ongoing grand jury investigation into allegations of corruption.
The Del Galdo Law Group said it is not being paid, so it will stop appearing in federal and state court and defending Dolton and Henyard in the 22 different lawsuits.
In a letter to Henyard and trustees, the law firm said the village is facing millions of dollars in judgments from earlier cases and could potentially be on the hook for millions more in the current lawsuits.
The firm also added that the village is quickly approaching the point of becoming uninsurable.
Watch:
A May 2023 taxpayer-funded trip to Las Vegas that resulted in allegations of serious misconduct and claims that Henyard retaliated against an aide and a police officer who reported alleged sexual misconduct on the part of a village trustee, is also part of the investigation.
In March, Henyard reportedly vetoed an investigation, unanimously approved by The Dolton Village Board, into allegations that she misused funds for lavish expenses and a costly $1 million security detail.
A group of Dolton trustees recently hired failed former Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot, who let her city burn with rampant crime and violence, to investigate Henyard for a hefty $400 an-hour fee.
Judge Thomas Fink last Monday declared a mistrial after an Arizona jury was unable to reach a unanimous verdict in the murder trial for Arizona rancher George Alan Kelly.
Jurors deliberated a couple of weeks ago and were unable to reach a verdict. Deliberations continued pn the following Friday and after more than 7 hours the jury sent a note to the judge and informed him they could not reach a verdict.
Far-left protestors posted up outside of the court in Nogales demanded a retrial.

Kelly, 75, was arrested for killing Gabriel Cuen-Butimea, on his Arizona ranch in Kino Springs just outside of Nogales, Mexico on January 30, 2023.
According to reports, Gabriel Cuen-Butimea has a history of illegally crossing into the United States and multiple deportations.
According to the defense lawyers, Mr. Kelly fired warning shots after he saw a group of men dressed in camouflaged clothing point an AK-47 right at him.
The rancher later discovered the deceased illegal alien, who is likely a cartel smuggler, when he went to go check on his horse.
The bullet that killed Gabriel Cuen-Butimea was never recovered so authorities were never able to conduct a ballistics test to see if it matched George Kelly’s AK-47.
Kelly’s defense attorneys argued cartel bandits shot and killed Gabriel Cuen-Butimea and robbed him.
Will Biden’s corrupt Justice Department come after George Kelly now that the Santa Cruz County Attorney decided not to pursue the case with a new trial?
An Arkansas teacher has been arrested for allegedly sexually assaulting a 15-year-old boy she met at the Arkansas church long frequented by former President Bill Clinton.
As the New York Post reported Monday, 26-year-old Reagan Gray was apprehended earlier this month after it was learned she had allegedly been assaulting the minor boy since 2020 while volunteering for the student ministry at the Immanuel Baptist Church in Little Rock.
THV11 reported the child’s parents uncovered several text messages on their child’s phone at the time and told Gray to leave him alone. The parents next reported Gray to the senior pastor of Immanuel Baptist Church.
The outlet also revealed the church’s head pastor confronted Gray about the messages between her and the boy. She claimed the relationship was not physical.
But Gray returned and began volunteering in the ministry once again shortly after being dismissed. Moreover, contact between her and the boy resumed, according to THV11.
Authorities got involved in February upon learning this information. They interviewed the head pastor of Immanuel Baptist Church that month, who said Gray admitted to him during a counseling session last fall that her relationship with the minor back in 2020 was sexual.
During his interviews with federal agents, the 15-year-old allegedly revealed Gray had given him oral sex but they didn’t have intercourse because she wanted him to “stay pure,” according to the Post.
The boy said that Gray received his phone number through the group chat for the church’s music program. Gray also allegedly sent nude photos of herself to the minor daily and wanted nude images of him sent back to her.
Gray was charged with a single felony count of sexual assault on a teenager between September 2020 and May 2021. She was released on $20,000 bail after turning herself into Little Rock police on Wednesday.
The church leader stepped down from his position earlier this month after being criticized over his handling of the alleged sexual abuse.
Gray currently works at Sylvan Hills Middle School but has been on administrative leave since February 12, 2024.
Clinton’s ties to Immanuel Baptist Church run deep. He not only attended the church regularly but also noted how pivotal it was in preparing him for the presidency, as the LA Times notes in a 1993 article.
“Were it not for this church, I believe it would be virtually impossible that I would be going to Washington next week as president,” Clinton told congregants then. “And I am absolutely certain I would be less prepared for the job.”

Globalist poster boy, former Rothschild banker, French President Emmanuel Macron is on a crusade, warmongering for better poll numbers, and if he has to threaten the use of France’s nuclear arsenal in the process, so be it.
In the run-up to June, where there will be at once a European Election and the Olympic Summer Games in Paris, Macron seems to be shying away from his numerous domestic problems and focusing on a deranged foreign policy where he envisions France to be a major planetary force that it has long ceased to be.
Trailing the conservative opposition in all polls badly, Macron took the ultimate grandstanding step of putting France’s nuclear weapons should ‘on the table.’
‘Le Petit Roi’ was interviewed by a group of newspapers on Sunday and drew heavy fire from political opponents.
“In an interview set up by EBRA, a group of French eastern regional newspapers, he said a ‘credible European defense’ should go beyond the protection already offered by NATO.
‘That may mean deploying anti-missile shields, but we need to be sure that they block all missiles and deter the use of nuclear weapons’, he said.”
France’s doctrine on Nuclear weapons is only to use them ‘when the country’s vital interests are threatened.’
Macron now says he was ‘open’ to giving a more ‘European dimension’ to these vital interests.
“‘I’m in favour of opening this debate, which must therefore include missile defense, long-range weapons and nuclear weapons for those who have them or who have American nuclear weapons on their soil’, he said.”
His nuclear warmongering drew heavy criticism from opponents both on the right and the left.
“‘Macron is becoming a national danger!’, far-right European lawmaker Thierry Mariani wrote on social media platform X. ‘#We can’t wait for June 9th to give him a clear signal that his policies are over!’ Mariani, a member of France’s Rassemblement National (RN) headed by Marine Le Pen, added in a reference to the approaching EU parliamentary elections.”
Macron summarized his thoughts by saying that France is ‘ready to contribute more to the defense of Europe’ – a.k.a. he needs to have more relevance at all costs.
“‘Let us put it all on the table and see what really protects us in a credible manner’, he added. Paris will ‘maintain its specificity but is ready to contribute more to the defense of Europe’.
[…] Far-left French lawmaker Bastien Lachaud said France’s nuclear deterrent ‘cannot be shared’.
“‘Under the guise of defending European soil, Macron wants to liquidate France’s strategic autonomy’, Lachaud said.”
The federal government warned employers that if they don’t use workers’ preferred pronouns or stop them from using bathrooms that align with their ‘gender identity’ they will face punishment.
The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) on Monday updated its guidance on workplace harassment to cover transgender, non-binary and other LGBTQ workers.
The Democrat-led EEOC voted 2-3 on Friday to update its guidance.
Employers can find themselves in court if they do not follow the new anti-bias laws and fail to adhere to the EEOC guidelines.
The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission on Monday said employers refusing to use transgender workers’ preferred pronouns and barring them from using bathrooms that match their gender identity amounts to unlawful workplace harassment under federal anti-discrimination law.
The EEOC updated its enforcement guidance, opens new tab on workplace harassment for the first time in 25 years, including to reflect a landmark U.S. Supreme Court ruling that anti-bias laws cover LGBTQ workers, after an earlier attempt stalled during the Trump administration.
The commission in the new guidance also addressed the rise of remote work and said that discriminating against employees based on their decisions to have abortions or use contraception is a form of sex discrimination.
The guidance is not legally binding, but lays out a blueprint for how the EEOC will enforce anti-bias laws and can be cited in court to back up legal arguments.
The Gateway Pundit reported on a new poll from CNN that shows Donald Trump holding an impressive six-point lead over Joe Biden in the 2024 presidential race.
Even more encouraging for Trump is that with the presence of third-party candidates, he leads Biden by a staggering nine points.
Trump’s support in the poll among registered voters holds steady at 49% in a head-to-head matchup against Biden, the same as in CNN’s last national poll on the race in January, while Biden’s stands at 43%, not significantly different from January’s 45%.
Looking back, 55% of all Americans now say they see Trump’s presidency as a success, while 44% see it as a failure. In a January 2021 poll taken just before Trump left office and days after the January 6 attack on the US Capitol, 55% considered his time as president a failure.
James Carville did not take the news well.
In a clip on X, taken from a longer video shared to Politicon, Carville had strong words for young voters if Donald Trump wins.
“If they get ahold, there will be no government left, no rights left, you will live under a theocracy, you’ll end up with Christian Nationalism. But that’s all right you little f’ing 26-year-old, you don’t feel like the election is important.”

The push for “meat alternatives” have been ramping up on multiple fronts. First, it was the plant-based “meat” that appeased the vegan population. Then, they started their attempts to normalize insect “meat” as a protein replacement. Now, they’re assuming the production of lab-grown “meat” will be accepted by the general population — and they may be right.
One shelf-stable beef company refuses to allow any “meat alternatives” in their stocks.
“The powers-that-be are on a trajectory to mandate lab-grown ‘meat’ as the status quo in America and abroad,” said Jason Nelson, co-founder of Prepper Beef. “We will fight them as they push against transparency at the state and national levels and we will fight even harder when they try mandates similar to the Covid jabs.”
Nelson, a veteran of both the U.S. Army and U.S. Marine Corps, left the military in 2021 due to Covid-19 vaccine mandates. He launched his company less than a year later in anticipation of what we’re seeing today in the American food industry.
Prepper Beef uses only all-American, mRNA-free cattle in their premium long-term storage beef. They don’t sell “beef crumbles” or scraps like most prepper food companies. They sell Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and Sirloin. Use promo code “tgp15” at checkout for 15% off.
“We’ll rebuke lab-grown ‘meat’ even when it’s mandated, but it’s important that everyone starts pushing back now,” Nelson said. “They’re already laying the groundwork in some states to keep people from even knowing they’re eating lab-grown ‘meat.’ We need to tell our representatives we demand to know what we’re eating.”
The usual suspects are behind the push for lab-grown “meat” in America and abroad, including Bill Gates and BlackRock who are bankrolling several companies in the burgeoning industry. The World Economic Forum and Council for Inclusive Capitalism have signaled their support to replace beef from cattle altogether for the sake of climate change.
In Spain, the world’s largest meat processing company is spearheading the push to make lab-grown meat available everywhere. According to Lance D Johnson from Natural News:
There are plans to scale up mass production of artificial meat lines. The news broke at the annual meeting of the Wyoming Stockgrowers Association. The world’s largest artificial meat plant is about to be constructed in San Sabastian, Spain. Brazil-based JBS S.A. is working with Bio Tech Foods to get the new venture up and running by mid-2024. The Spanish Institute for Foreign Trade will be tasked with researching and cultivating new cell lines to produce a new line of artificial meats.
In a press release, JBS confirmed that Bio Tech Foods will conduct “research on cell lines, cultured media and biomaterials for their correct bioprocessing to enable the production of cultivated meat.” The cultivated meat is referred to as “investMEAT.” JBS says the new line “will allow a highly efficient cultivated meat production line, which will solve the challenges of current technology linked to scalability.”
“We started our company to give Americans access to real food long-term,” Nelson said. “Our beef is shelf-stable for at least a decade or two, which will hopefully buy us all enough time to bring sanity back to our nation.”

Ministers from the Group of Seven (G7) nations have agreed to eliminate all coal-fired power plants by 2035.
The countries that are members of the Group of Seven (G7) are Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States, as well as the European Union.
This declaration was made by Andrew Bowie, a UK minister at the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, during an interview in Turing, Italy.
“We do have an agreement to phase out coal in the first half of the 2030s,” Bowie said.
“This is, by the way, a historic agreement, something that we weren’t able to achieve at COP28 in Dubai last year.”
“So, to have the G7 nations come around the table to send that signal to the world – that we, the advanced economies of the world are committed to phasing out coal by the early 2030s – is quite incredible,” he added.
Italian diplomatic sources said a technical deal had been reached.
The accord will be included in the G7 energy ministers’ final communique to be released on Tuesday at the end of a two-day meeting in Turin.
One source told Reuters earlier that diplomats from the G7 nations – Italy, the United States, Britain, France, Germany, Canada and Japan – discussed the issue until late on Sunday, before the start of the ministerial gathering.
The agreement marks a significant step in the direction indicated last year by the COP28 United Nations climate summit for a transition away from fossil fuels, of which coal is the most polluting.
It helps accelerate the shift of investments from coal to clean technology in particular in Japan and more broadly in the whole Asian coal economy, including China and India,” Luca Bergamaschi, co-founding member of Italian climate change think-tank ECCO, said on X.
Since the Strategic Energy Dialogue in 2021, UK and US have cooperated on finding ways to achieve our energy ambitions

China has the most coal-fired power plants in the world with 1,142 operational plants, and the highest installed capacity of coal power plants with 1,108.91 gigawatts. It is also the largest climate polluter in the world.
India has the second-most coal power plants, with approximately 285 active plants, and the United States has 240 active plants.
However, this agreement will not impact China and India, as they are not members of the G7.
Last week, the Biden regime introduced new regulations to lower emissions from power plants. The rules mandate that coal and new natural gas facilities capture or reduce 90% of their climate pollutants by 2032.
“The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced a suite of final rules to reduce pollution from fossil fuel-fired power plants in order to protect all communities from pollution and improve public health without disrupting the delivery of reliable electricity. These rules, finalized under separate authorities including the Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, and Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, will significantly reduce climate, air, water, and land pollution from the power sector, delivering on the Biden-Harris Administration’s commitment to protect public health, advance environmental justice, and confront the climate crisis,” according to the press release.
“EPA is proud to make good on the Biden-Harris Administration’s vision to tackle climate change and to protect all communities from pollution in our air, water, and in our neighborhoods,” said EPA Administrator Michael S. Regan.
“This year, the United States is projected to build more new electric generation capacity than we have in two decades – and 96 percent of that will be clean,” said Biden’s National Climate Advisor Ali Zaidi.
“President Biden’s leadership has not only sparked an unprecedented expansion in clean electricity generation, his leadership has also launched an American manufacturing renaissance. America is now a magnet for private investment, with hundreds of billions of dollars committed and 270,000 new clean energy jobs created. This is how we win the future, by harnessing new technologies to grow our economy, deliver environmental justice, and save the planet for future generations.”
“No one is building new coal plants because they can’t rely on it,” Biden said on Friday in north San Diego county. “Even if they have all the coal guaranteed for the rest of the existence of the plant.”
“So it’s going to become a wind generation,” Biden added. “And all they’re doing is, it’s going to save them a hell of a lot of money and using the same transmission line that they transmitted the coal-fired electric on. We’re going to be shutting these plants down all across America and having wind and solar power.”
The White House (or whoever is really in charge) went into damage control mode after Joe Biden let the truth slip.
Biden shutting down coal plants will impact voters in Pennsylvania, North Carolina, West Virginia, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, Colorado and others.
Democrat West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin blasted Joe Biden and called his comments “outrageous and divorced from reality.”
The White House scrambled to clean up on aisle Joe Biden after he vowed to shut down coal plants.
“The President’s remarks yesterday have been twisted to suggest a meaning that was not intended; he regrets it if anyone hearing these remarks took offense. The President was commenting on a fact of economics and technology: as it has been from its earliest days as an energy superpower, America is once again in the midst of an energy transition,” Karine Jean-Pierre said.

The law requires public schools to show school children a “high-quality, computer-generated animation or high-definition ultrasound” of unborn babies as they develop in the womb.
According to Life Site, “family life curriculum is required by Tennessee law in all counties where the teen birth rate exceeds 19.5 per 1,000 females between the ages of 15 and 19, which amount to 78 of the state’s 95 counties, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).”
On March 18, 2024, The Tennessee State House adopted amendments #1 and #2 and passed House Bill 2435 which states:
AMENDMENT #1 rewrites the bill to, instead, enact the Baby Olivia Act, which requires a family life curriculum that directly or indirectly addresses human growth, human development, or human sexuality to include the presentation of a high-quality, computer-generated animation or high-definition ultrasound of at least three minutes in duration that shows the development of the brain, heart, sex organs, and other vital organs in early fetal development, such as “Meet Baby Olivia,” a high-quality, computer-generated animation developed by Live Action that shows the process of fertilization and the stages of human development inside the uterus.
AMENDMENT #2 deletes the requirement that the development of “sex organs” be included in the computer-generated animation or high-definition ultrasound of at least three minutes.
The law cites the computer-animated “Baby Olivia” video by Live Action, which depicts fertilization and fetal development from conception, as an example of an animation that would meet the law’s requirements. The video has been viewed almost 7 million times on YouTube.
Live Action founder and president Lila Rose shared the news on X along with the powerful Baby Olivia video, “BREAKING: The Baby Olivia Act has been signed into law in Tennessee. This law ensures that over 1 million TN public school students will be taught scientifically accurate information about when life begins using world-class educational materials like Live Action’s Baby Olivia.
“TN joins North Dakota in leading the way in human development education in schools. Watch what students across the nation will see below.”

The video goes on to depict milestone events of early fetal development with vivid computer animation, including the emergence of a detectable heartbeat at 22 days from conception, and recordable brain activity at six weeks from fertilization.
“[Baby Olivia] can bring her hands together at 7 ½ weeks, and separate fingers and toes emerge. She can also begin to hiccup,” the video explains.
Live Action has verified that the video accurately depicts fetal development, citingthe review and certification of “leading OBGYNs and medical professionals” including Dr. David Bolender, who has a PhD in Cell Biology, Neurobiology & Anatomy, and Michelle Cretella, MD, Executive Director of the American College of Pediatricians. The information in the video was derived from the Endowment for Human Development, a bioethics nonprofit.

FBI agents spread docuements from Mar-a-Lago on the floor during their raid on President Trump’s home.
President Trump shared last week that he believes the FBI stole his will. The FBI also stole 1,800 other items that were not documents that belonged to President Trump. This was not lawful or necessary.
It is also widely known at this point that Joe Biden who ordered the FBI access to Trump’s documents at Mar-a-Lago and President Trump’s personal belongings.
On pages 2-3 of the ruling Judge Cannon revealed that it was JOE BIDEN who ordered the FBI access to the Mar-a-Lago documents and President Trump’s personal belongings.
This was despite the Biden regime insisting they had nothing to do with the raid.
In September 2022, Joe Hoft at The Gateway Pundit reported that Chris Wray’s FBI created a fake crime scene at Trump’s home by adding their own documents to the scene and doctoring at least one photo. (more here).
The FBI created the crime scene, inserted their own documents, and then photoshopped the document. At the bottom of the photo provided to the court there is the number 2A, indicating that this was a crime scene photo as well as a type of tape measure across the bottom of the photo. The corrupt FBI threw the photos on the floor themselves. They staged this.
We know this because the containers were right next door. The documents would have been placed on a table had the FBI wanted to take a picture of the documents. Showing them as scattered across the floor is for show to indicate they were found this way, a lie we explain below. Also, the cabinets are right next to the documents, which is likely where they were stored. They weren’t stored on the floor.
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, Biden’s corrupt FBI’s raid on Mar-a-Lago was all a set-up. We reported this when it happened. Now we have more evidence.
It was all another set up from our totally corrupt DOJ and FBI.
In November 2022, we reported at TGP that the FBI set up President Trump and inserted documents at the Mar-a-Lago raid.
1. We know that the FBI wanted to make this look like a crime scene.
We know this because at the bottom of the photo provided to the court there is the number 2A, indicating that this was a crime scene photo as well as a type of tape measure across the bottom of the photo. The corrupt FBI threw the photos on the floor themselves. They staged this.
We know this because the containers were right next door. The documents would have been placed on a table had the FBI wanted to take a picture of the documents. Showing them as scattered across the floor is for show to indicate they were found this way, a lie we explain below. Also, the cabinets are right next to the documents, which is likely where they were stored. They weren’t stored on the floor.
2. The FBI inserted documents into the photo.
The cover sheets in the above photo that were red, yellow, and brown were inserted by the FBI. They are the FBI’s cover sheets. We know this for various reasons. The Trump White House did not need these cover sheets in the documents they held because they had their own cover sheets.
If you look closely at the photo above, the document right above the 2A is folded back. The papers are stapled together as they should be. If you look at that batch you see there already was a cover sheet on that document. It says “Please store in…”. That is the real cover sheet.
The red, yellow, and brown cover sheets were inserted. If you look closely at the yellow cover sheets, they are paper clipped to the documents. The documents would have been stapled. They are paperclipped because they were inserted by the FBI.
Also, the front cover sheet in brown, showing SCI, says the following wording:
Handling, storage, reproduction, and distribution of the attached document must be in accordance with the applicable executive orders statutes and agency implementing regulations.
This document was inserted. The FBI inserted this to indicate that the “agency implementing regulations” – i.e. the DOJ – is involved in the maintenance of these records but this is not the case. The President has the right to documents that are his. They are his property and an inserted document saying something different is simply not true.
3. The photo was altered or photoshopped after it was taken (i.e. the FBI was tampering with evidence).
Throughout the picture there are sections in white. It would be proper for the FBI to take pictures of the crime scene and then add paper to cover up the classified info and then take photos to cover up any classified information. However, we know that these white sections are redactions to the photo.
At the end of the article we reported that this was a crime scene but the FBI and DOJ were the criminals.
This past weekend Judge Cannon redacted documents previously concealed to the American public.
The unredacted documents prove the raid on Mar-a-Lago was all a set up as we previously reported.
Julie Kelly reported on X that an entire pallet full of boxes that was held by GSA was later dumped at Mar-a-Lago. These boxes contained the papers with “classified markings.”
it was all a set-up.
So an entire pallet full of boxes that had been held by GSA somewhere outside of DC is dumped at Mar-a-Lago. Apparently these are the boxes that ended up containing papers with “classified markings.”
I will double check indictment but I don’t recall this event in the timeline: pic.twitter.com/H08oh4gkjI
…the federal government potentially shipped boxes of classified information from government storage to Trump at Mar-a-Lago, then charged him for possessing it, then rescinded his clearance after charging him?
AstraZeneca has admitted for the first time in a recent court document filing that its COVID-19 vaccine can cause rare side effects.
Pharmaceutical giant AstraZeneca admitted in court documents, as part of a class action lawsuit filed against them, that its COVID-19 vaccine can cause thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome, or TTS for short.
TTS is a rare medical condition when a person suffers from blood clots together with a low platelet count.
Currently, AstraZeneca is facing a massive class action suit by individuals who claim the AstraZeneca vaccine caused serious injuries or resulted in the death of a family member.
AstraZeneca has admitted for the first time in court documents that its Covid vaccine can cause a rare side effect, in an apparent about-turn that could pave the way for a multi-million pound legal payout https://t.co/OpkWtytjrv
AstraZeneca has admitted for the first time in court documents that its Covid vaccine can cause a rare side effect, in an apparent about-turn that could pave the way for a multi-million pound legal payout.
The pharmaceutical giant is being sued in a class action over claims that its vaccine, developed with the University of Oxford, caused death and serious injury in dozens of cases.
Lawyers argue the vaccine produced a side effect which has had a devastating effect on a small number of families.
The first case was lodged last year by Jamie Scott, a father of two, who was left with a permanent brain injury after developing a blood clot and a bleed on the brain that has prevented him from working after he received the vaccine in April 2021. The hospital called his wife three times to tell her that her husband was going to die.
AstraZeneca is contesting the claims but has accepted, in a legal document submitted to the High Court in February, that its Covid vaccine “can, in very rare cases, cause TTS”.

In March 2021, several countries worldwide suspended issuing AstraZeneca’s vaccine due to its link to blood clots.
Last week, The Gateway Pundit reported that a coroner determined that 32-year-old British doctor, Dr. Stephen Wright, died from a cerebral blood clot caused by a reaction to the AstraZeneca vaccine.
Hunter Biden launched a war against Fox News with a defamation lawsuit.
“Hunter Biden’s legal team wrote that they anticipate “imminent” litigation against Fox News and requested that prominent Fox News hosts, including Sean Hannity, Jesse Watters and Maria Bartiromo, preserve documentation.” Axios reported.
The lawsuit alleges “conspiracy and subsequent actions to defame Mr. Biden and paint him in a false light, the unlicensed commercial exploitation of his image, name, and likeness, and the unlawful publication of hacked intimate images of him.”
Lawyers for Hunter Biden plan to sue Fox News “imminently,” according to a letter sent to the network and obtained by NBC News.
The letter, dated April 23, puts the Fox News Channel and Fox News Digital on notice for litigation claims arising from the network’s alleged “conspiracy and subsequent actions to defame Mr. Biden and paint him in a false light, the unlicensed commercial exploitation of his image, name, and likeness, and the unlawful publication of hacked intimate images of him.”
Biden has hired attorney Mark Geragos and his firm to represent him in the Fox litigation efforts. The letter is the second outreach to Fox this month. An earlier letter was hand-delivered to Fox’s counsel two weeks ago, and the network asked for more time to respond, according to a source familiar with Biden’s legal efforts. The network has not yet responded to the letter sent April 23, which included a Friday evening, April 26, deadline to respond, according to Geragos. The letter is signed by Tina Glandian, a partner at Geragos & Geragos working on the case.
The government is giving voter registration forms to non-citizen ‘refugees.’
According to South Carolina state representative and congressional candidate Adam Morgan, the state government is including voter registration forms in packets at the Social Security Office in Spartanburg, South Carolina.
“Is the Federal Gov giving voter registration forms to non-citizens?” Adam Morgan said on X.
“Yes, at least in SC. A refugee sent us this form that was given to her in a packet at the Social Security Office in Spartanburg. She asked “Why are they giving these to non-citizens?”” he said.
Attached to Adam Morgan’s post was a photo of the voter registration form included in the welcome packet for refugees.
Is the Federal Gov giving voter registration forms to non-citizens?
Yes, at least in SC. A refugee sent us this form that was given to her in a packet at the Social Security Office in Spartanburg. She asked “Why are they giving these to non-citizens?”
According to Rep. Adam Morgan, the refugee’s relative “mailed the forms back and criticized the office for distributing them to people they knew were non-citizens.”
“A few weeks later the refugees received more voter registration forms in the mail,” Rep. Morgan said.
“None of this is by accident,” he said.
But the story gets worse. Her relative mailed the forms back and criticized the office for distributing them to people they knew were non-citizens.
A few weeks later the refugees received more voter registration forms in the mail.
Morgan wrote in an update, “after calling the agencies and all parties involved, it appears the form was given by the STATE gov (SC Medicaid Office). The refugee confused the offices. We are set to pass a bill prohibiting non-citizens from voting in SC elections! Stop this nonsense in your state!”

Earlier this year Kamala Harris met with “voting rights leaders” at the White House to announce new ways the Biden regime will help register people to vote in 2024.
The Biden regime also announced plans to pay college kids to register voters.
The Democratic plan includes a call to reinforce the Voting Rights Act of 1965, which has been weakened by recent Supreme Court decisions. Harris also is announcing new strategies that federal agencies will use to encourage millions of Americans to vote in November.
The Department of Health and Human Services will email voter registration information to every person — more than 20 million last year — who signs up for health insurance through the Affordable Care Act.
Signage highlighting Vote.gov will now be visible to the 6 million people who visit the Social Security Administration’s more than 1,200 offices each year.
The Department of Interior will display Vote.gov signage in national park entrances and visitor centers across the country.
Voter registration information is now available in nearly 20 languages, including Chinese, Arabic and Navajo — up from just English and Spanish when President Biden and Harris were elected in 2020.
There’s one thing that most unbelievers – especially Muslim terrorists – don’t quite get about Christians: if you kill a holy man, you turn him into a martyr, and his word will echo through centuries.
And if you don’t kill him, he comes back much stronger in the love of Christ.
Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel, carrying a gold cross and sporting a white eye patch, returned triumphantly to the pulpit on Orthodox Palm Sunday – of all days – and delivered a fiery sermon, calling out Prime Minister Anthony Albanese in an impassioned defense of freedom of speech and religion.
“I say to our beloved, the Australian government, and our beloved Prime Minister, the honorable Mr. Albanese, I believe in one thing and that is the integrity and the identity of the human being. This human identity, this human integrity, is a God-given gift, no one else. Every human being has the right to their freedom of speech and freedom of religion.”
Bishop Emmanuel said all religions – Buddhists, Hindus, Muslims, and Atheists – had the right to express their beliefs.
“Also the Christians have the right to express their beliefs, and for us to say, that free speech is dangerous, that free speech cannot be possible in a democratic country, I’m yet to fathom this. I’m yet to fathom this. We should be able as civilized human beings, as intellectuals, we should be able to criticize, to speak, and maybe, at some certain times, we may sound, or we may come across offensive to some degree, but we should be able to say, ‘I should not worry for my life to be exposed to threat or to be taken away’. A non Christian can criticize my faith, can attack my faith. I will say one thing, ‘may God forgive you, and may God bless you.”
He said it is unacceptable to state that freedom of speech ‘is causing dramas and dilemmas’ and that it should be censored. He asked: ‘Then where is democracy?’
“Then, where is humanity, where is integrity, where are the morals, where are the ethics, where are the principles, where are the values which the Western world, more so, have been fighting for human rights, which is the value of the human.”
After a 16-year-old Muslim terrorist stabbed the bishop during a live-streamed sermon, the video of the attack quickly spread online.
Australian eSafety commissioner Julie Inman Grant ordered social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, to take down posts commenting on the attack.
X has stated it will challenge the take-down order.
The recent attacks in Australia are a horrific assault on free society. Our condolences go out to those who have been affected, and we stand with the Australian people in calling for those responsible to be brought to justice.

Bishop Emmanuel: “May this holy and blessed day, the day of Hosanna, Palm Sunday according to the [Orthodox] church calendar, may the Lord Jesus bless every Christian who is celebrating Palm Sunday today, and those who have celebrated it earlier.” he said to his congregation.
He said ‘love never fails’: “This is our Christian faith, but above all this is our Christ, who is all. And always taught to love one another, because God is love, and the Lord Jesus, he is God, revealed in the flesh, period. He taught us to love everyone, without any differentiation. This will never change.”
The Bishop also delivered a message to his attacker, forgiving him, showing the power of Christianity in real time, to all the world to hear.
“I’ll say it again, this young man who did this act, almost two weeks ago, I say to you, ‘my dear, you are my son and you will always be my son’. I will always pray for you, I will always wish you nothing but the best.”
As the June European Elections approach, all countries see a flurry of maneuvering by the political forces in order to get the best possible outcome.
In Italy, Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has officially joined as a candidate, announcing it on the stage of the programmatic conference of her ‘Brothers of Italy’ party.
Meloni will run in the European elections to boost support for her party, but she will not take up a seat if elected.
“‘We want to do in Europe what we did in Italy… create a majority that brings together the centre-right forces and send the left into opposition’, Meloni told cheering party faithful at a party conference in the coastal city of Pescara to set out EU policies and launch the campaign.”
While Meloni called for Italy to leave the eurozone when she was in opposition, she has followed a pro-European line in office, particularly on foreign policy matters such as Ukraine and the Middle East.
“Her party is Italy’s most popular with 27% of support, according to recent polls, ahead of the opposition Democratic Party (PD) on around 20% and the left-leaning 5-Star Movement on 16%.
Meloni will be the first name on the ballot for Brothers of Italy in all five of Italy’s constituencies for the EU election, but pledged she would not use ‘a single minute’ of her time as prime minister to campaign.”
“On stage, Meloni recalled the previous European electoral challenges, of 2014 when the party did not reach the quorum of 4 percent and those of 2019 when it reached 6.5 percent. ‘In six years we have increased by two percent, in the last three we have reached 26.5 percent’, said Meloni. ‘I don’t remember this story as a rhetorical exercise of self-satisfaction and self-celebration, I say it to remind myself and all of us that what we have earned is not something we have acquired forever, we must continue to deserve it’. added Meloni.”
Meloni claims to have put Italy at the centre of Europe and international politics, and credited herself for the agreements with Tunisia and Egypt for the management of migrants.
“There was no shortage of criticism of the European Green Deal and the ‘bureaucrats locked in a glass palace’. Meloni claimed the obligation to advance the energy class to be achieved in a few years and on electric cars he reiterated that Europe must stop, ‘it must leave it up to research, the market and companies to develop the cleanest technologies and the Member States, also based on their social model, to decide how to achieve those objectives’, said Meloni and added: ‘Because while we save the environment, we also want to save the thousands of businesses and the thousands of jobs’.”
Her ‘Brothers of Italy’ party elected six deputies in the last European Parliament, but according to the recent Ipsos poll, could obtain up to 24 seats in the next elections.
A devastating tornado struck south China during the weekend, killing five people, injuring dozens, and damaging more than 140 factory buildings in the industrial city of Guangzhou.
“The China Meteorological Administration said the tornado struck about 3 p.m. [on Saturday] in the Baiyun district of Guangzhou, a sprawling metropolis and manufacturing center near Hong Kong.
Videos posted online showed a mid-afternoon sky darkened by storm clouds and debris swirling up into the air.
Authorities said that another 33 people were injured and 141 factory buildings were damaged, the official Xinhua News Agency said.”
The severe weather was prefaced with heavy a hailstorm, some bigger than golf balls, that damaged cars and buildings.
“As businesses and residents began cleaning debris, the images showed block upon block of devastation in the hardest-hit areas with a few clusters of buildings standing amid the destruction, a truck overturned on its side and cars crushed by rubble. The sheet metal roofs on some buildings were torn off.”
“Guangdong, China’s most populous province, is home to 127 million people and thousands of factories that power the nation’s export sector.
Aerial photos posted by Chinese state media on Sunday showed the tornado had caused wide devastation in parts of the city. The images showed block upon block of damage in the hardest-hit areas with a few clusters of buildings standing amid the destruction.”

Many Americans are concerned that over 150 of their fellow citizens overdose on fentanyl every day, but do they ever stop to think about how this shift to fentanyl negatively affects the lives of opium and cocaine growers in Latin America? This seems to be the question being asked by human rights groups, and as always, the blame and the cost are put on the United States.
Fentanyl makes better business sense for the Mexican cartels compared to opium. It can be easily manufactured using chemicals sourced from China. Highly potent and compact, fentanyl is easy to transport and distribute. Unlike opium, its production is not affected by weather conditions, making it a more reliable option. Additionally, fentanyl labs can avoid detection and eradication efforts, unlike poppy farms, which are easily spotted by authorities using drones.
The decrease in demand for opium has resulted in a drastic drop in prices. Opium, which previously fetched $64 an ounce, is now trading for $9.60 an ounce. According to a Guatemalan poppy grower interviewed by the New York Times, “Poppies used to help a lot of people make ends meet.” The report further states, “Now.. the steep decline in poppy prices inflicted so much economic pain that ‘before the money runs out, people depart for the United States.’”
Apparently, the price of coca leaves used to manufacture cocaine is also declining, affecting 200,000 Colombian households that depend on the drug to make a living. Rights groups are focused on these people, missing the larger point that Latin American governments should be taking care of their people and that they should never have reached a point where a large percentage of the population is dependent on the drug trade.
According to the Congressional Research Service, “criminality related to drug trafficking has replaced political and regional conflicts as the primary source of citizen insecurity in the Americas.” Now, a drop in drug prices is adding to the hardship.
Across Latin America, governments fail to address their own economic and social problems or curb crime, often blaming the US instead. Some advocate for the legalization of hard drugs, mistakenly believing it will solve all their issues. They argue that drug legalization in the US will lower prices, weakening cartels and reducing violence in Latin America.
Meanwhile, from Mexico to Colombia, corruption among law enforcement, courts, and politicians is facilitating the drug trade. Legalizing drugs in the US or Latin America will not resolve these countries’ issues.
Even with the decline in drug prices, opium continues to be cultivated in the poorest, mountainous region of Guatemala, where mature plants are processed into gum. This gum is then transported across the border to Mexico, where cartels refine it into heroin for distribution in the United States. And the US continues funding drug eradication programs because local governments are either unable or unwilling to control the cartels.
Since the 1970s, the US has allocated billions of dollars to Latin American governments to combat drug production and smuggling. American taxpayers fund the provision of weapons, training, equipment, and vehicles to local security forces. In Guatemala alone, the US is granting $10 to $20 million annually in aid to the military and law enforcement. With this funding, Guatemala succeeded in eradicating 7 acres of opium farms in 2023, down from over 2,000 acres in 2017.
The US was also financing aerial spraying of herbicides in drug-growing regions. However, human rights groups sent a letter to President Biden, urging him to cease funding these programs. They argued that such actions convey “a message of cruelty and callousness with which the United States should no longer be associated.”
The villagers in Guatemala are complaining that spraying and other eradication efforts are stripping away their livelihoods. Lucky for them, Guatemala still acts as a transit country for cocaine smuggled from the Andes and for fentanyl precursor chemicals from China. Given that the US is footing the bill for everything else, it’s surprising that no one has suggested having the US finance a retraining program for displaced opium farmers, teaching them to smuggle other drugs into the United States.
And to think – It was not that long ago that if you said anything negative about George Soros you were labeled an “anti-Semite” by the mainstream media!
And here he is funding the Jew-hatred in America.
But that’s not all. American students and their families are also paying for the anti-Israel protests on college campuses across the country.
FOX News reporter William La Jeunesse reported this on Monday morning.
William La Jeunesse: At least $1.3 million came from two liberal foundations, the Rockefeller Brothers and George Soros. But there are many other Democrat-led dark money groups that funnel money outside the IRS reporting structure that pay for talking points, posters, recruiting, activists who go campus to campus to organize these protests, but even universities bankroll anti-Israel groups through the student activity fee…
…These protest groups go by different names. The largest, Students for Justice in Palestine, receives funds, among others, from a liberal New York foundation called Westpack, as well as activity fees charged to each student by their university, according to the Watchdog Group NGO Monitor. Yet none of these universities would tell us how much student money is given to pro-Palestinian groups.
The fact that universities now are hiding or giving excuses for not providing that information when they absolutely have to know what that status is. It’s something that is very much, I say, counter to democratic processes.
Another group, the US Campaign for Palestinian Rights, claims to have led 43 protests or demonstrations last year. It provides banners and signs, salaries and stipends to hire fellows and activists who go campus to campus running campaigns demanding the US cut ties with Israel. Among their fellows, Malakafana, who disrupted a private dinner at UC Berkeley, and Craig Burkhead-Morton, who, according to the Yale Daily News, was arrested for truspensing. Another is Nida Laffy, who spoke Wednesday at a University of Texas protest US, and previously had been detained for blocking a Biden motorcade in Dallas, according to the Palestinian youth movement. The Campaign for Palestinian Rights reported 1.3 million in revenue in 2022, much of it coming from the Rockefeller Brothers Fund and George Soros, Open Society Foundation.
Comic legend Jerry Seinfeld calls out the joy-killers in the far-left for ruining comedy.
The “Seinfeld” star joined New Yorker’s Radio Hour podcast and shared that, while people continue to crave comic relief, they can’t find it on television.
Seinfeld shared, “Nothing really affects comedy. People always need it. They need it so badly and they don’t get it.”
“It used to be that you’d go home at the end of the day, most people would go, ‘Oh, ’Cheers’ is on. Oh, ‘M.A.S.H.’ is on. Oh, ‘Mary Tyler Moore ’ is on, ‘All in the Family’ is on.’ You just expected [there will] be some funny stuff we can watch on TV tonight.”
“Well, guess what? Where is it? Where is it? This is the result of the extreme left and P.C. crap and people worrying so much about offending other people.”
“When you write a script and it goes into four or five different hands, committees, groups…’ here’s our thought about this joke’ well that’s the end of your comedy.”
“They move the gates, like in skiing. Culture – the gates are moving. Your job is to be agile and clever enough that wherever they put the gates, I’m going to make the gate.”
Watch:
Jerry Seinfeld on how the Left destroyed comedy. One problem with the humorless activists in the camps, and in the media, is that they can’t stand to hear anyone else laugh, least of all at them! pic.twitter.com/VV8FKvHNfg
The Supreme Court’s denial of Navarro’s request follows his second ask to the nation’s highest court to set him free while he challenges his conviction.
By default, Navarro’s first emergency request to stay out of prison while appealing the conviction went to Chief Justice John Roberts.
Roberts, who acted on the request alone, said in March that he would not pause Navarro’s four-month prison sentence as his appeal moves forward, forcing the onetime Trump adviser to report to a federal prison in Miami on March 19.
Navarro then renewed his motion to Justice Neil Gorsuch. As the court typically does to avoid repeated efforts, Gorsuch referred the matter to the full court for a vote. Navarro’s request was again denied.
The decision means that Navarro will likely serve his four-month prison term before arguing the appeal of his conviction before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.
Last month Peter Navarro reported to prison for his 4-month sentence. He is the first high-ranking Trump aide to be imprisoned by the Biden Regime.
A federal appeals court previously denied Navarro’s request to remain out of jail.
The three-judge panel – all Obama appointees – included Judges Patricia Millett, Cornelia Pillard and Robert Wilkins.
“[T]he argument presupposes that privilege has actually been invoked in this case in some manner by the President,” the judges wrote in a two-page order, according to Politico. “That did not happen here.”
In September former Trump advisor Dr. Peter Navarro, 74, was convicted of criminal contempt of Congress for refusing to comply with a subpoena in Liz Cheney’s January 6 investigation.
Navarro did not comply with the subpoena because he said Trump told him to assert executive privilege.
Biden’s DOJ has abused Dr. Navarro throughout the entire process.
According to Navarro, the feds put him in leg irons and threw him in a cell last year.
A beloved New York City firefighter and veteran passed away due to a heart attack after city officials fired him to help provide funding to care for illegal aliens. Now, his family is broke.
The New York Post reported Sunday that 36-year-old Derek Floyd suffered cardiac arrest and died on April 15. This was four months after the city canned him as part of a larger effort to trim staff and fund services for the tens of thousands of illegals invading the Big Apple.
The outlet reports NYC is aiming to cut the FDNY budget by $74 million by the end of 2025 to make way for even more spending on illegal aliens.
The Post reveals Floyd was dismissed weeks before Christmas. He had been a firefighter for four years and was one of roughly ten Fire Department employees on “long-term duty.”
Long-term duty means a firefighter was either injured on the job and given office work or is out sick for an extended period. Floyd was working in the chaplain’s office after suffering an earlier heart attack in 2019 while in the Fire Academy.
To make matters even worse, Floyd was just shy of vesting additional medical benefits for his family and more than $600,000 worth of death benefits when he was canned, leaving his family with nothing.
“If Derek would have stayed on, he would have had a life insurance policy with the FDNY,” Christine said. “That would have helped out financially because right now, it’s really bad. I’m honestly swimming in a lot of debt.” Floyd’s 34-year-old widow, Cristine, told The Post.
“I think it definitely took a toll once they let him go,” she added. “He always tried to, like, stay positive about it, and he wasn’t really angry.
After Floyd was terminated, he found a job with a nonprofit that helps veterans. The pay, however, was far less than what he made while working for the FDNY.
Moreover, he had limited benefits and the hours prevented him from spending time with his children.
Uniformed Firefighter Association president Andrew Ansbro blasted Derek’s firing in an interview with the Post, noting how unnecessary it was considering the FDNY is already understaffed.
“What disturbs me the most is that the FDNY is understaffed by hundreds of firefighters. Terminating Floyd was absolutely unnecessary,” Ansbro said.
“He had an important job, and the FDNY actually needed him in that unit,” Ansbro continued. “He was terminated so the department could prove that they were making cuts. He deserved better.”
In addition to his loyal service as an FDNY employee, Floyd served three tours of duty in the Middle East with the Marines.
He is survived by Christine and their two children, a 6-year-old boy and a 2-year-old girl.
The Post notes that donations to help the Floyds in their time of need can be made to the “New York Firefighters Foundation” and sent by mail addressed to FF Derek Floyd C/O UFA – NYFFinc 204 E. 23rd St., New York, NY 10010.
California Governor Gavin Newsom asked social media users to help design a new $1 coin to honor the state’s innovations on Thursday, and it unsurprisingly blew up in his face.
As Gateway Pundit readers know, the Golden State is suffering from various maladies under Newsom’s watch. These include a severe homelessness epidemic, skyrocketing crime, unaffordable taxes, and high electricity costs.
This has led to a mass exodus of businesses and residents. But Newsom, for some reason, thought social media users would lavish California with praise instead.
Calling all members of the Tortured Coin Designers Department…
CA is getting its own $1 coin to honor innovation, slated to be issued in 2026 – and we need your help!
What is a CA innovation you’d like to see featured on the coin? Send ideas to: coinsubmissions@gov.ca.gov pic.twitter.com/oOdw4qICtZ
Newsom probably wishes he never clicked “publish” because the replies he received were universally negative. Many of these focused on the filthy streets, Californians leaving for greener pastures, and even Newsom’s tyrannical COVID-19 pandemic policies.
Conservative attorney and Republican Party official Harmeet Dhillon joined Tucson radio host Garret Lewis’ Afternoon Addiction last week to discuss the latest election interference lawfare against Republicans in Arizona.
Dhillon represents GOP Arizona State Senator Jake Hoffman in fighting the bogus charges brought against 18 individuals by radical left Attorney General Kris Mayes, who stole the 2022 election by 280 votes from Trump Endorsed Abe Hamadeh.
Hamadeh also discussed the sham charges against Trump electors and his ongoing lawsuit contesting the fraudulent election in an exclusive interview with The Gateway Pundit last week.
The Gateway Pundit reported that the still questionably elected Kris Mayes announced felony charges against 18 Trump allies and alternative electors last Wednesday afternoon for the non-crime of questioning the 2020 election and casting electoral votes for Trump. She defended her witch hunt and the curious timing of the indictment – just months before the 2024 general election.
However, the alleged crime is perfectly legal and has legal precedent.
By December 1960, it was clear Kennedy had won. Only Hawaii’s result remained in doubt.Nixon had prevailed by just 140 votes, according to the initial results, which were certified by the governor.A recount was underway on Dec. 19, 1960, when presidential electors across the nation were required by law to meet and cast their ballots.
Nixon’s Hawaii electors met and cast their three votes in an official ceremony. But nearby, Kennedy’s three elector nominees gathered and signed their own certificates, delivering them to Washington as though Kennedy had won the state.
As was done in Hawaii, Arizona's Trump electors met and cast their votes in case of a successful legal challenge while lawsuits challenging the stolen 2020 election were still ongoing. "That's a protected First Amendment activity by these citizens," said Dhillon.
Recall that the Arizona Attorney General at the time, Mark Brnovich, released a report on his investigation in April 2022, stating that “between 100,000 and 200,000 ballots were transported without a proper chain of custody,” and individuals would be prosecuted for election fraud. However, the weak, lethargic AG never followed through.
Even the election officials in Maricopa County, which accounts for roughly 60% of Arizona's voters, knew the election was rigged with dead voters, ballot harvesting, and shady machine software and admitted that the County’s in-house audit of the 2020 election was “bulsh*t.” Former Maricopa County Supervisor Steve Chucri previously stated that his colleagues lied because they were too scared to do a real audit in conversations while the Arizona 2020 election audit was ongoing.
President Trump was also named in the indictment “Unindicted Coconspirator-1” because he made a phone call about the ballot counting to former governor Doug Ducey.
The charges include nine counts of conspiracy, fraudulent schemes and artifices, fraudulent schemes and practices, and forgery. “Defendants and unindicted coconspirators schemed to prevent the lawful transfer of the presidency to keep Unindicted Coconspirator 1 in office against the will of Arizona’s voters,” the indictment falsely alleges.
"It sure sounds like the timing of this prosecution was specifically for purposes of trying to affect, in a positive way, Democrats' chances, certainly with respect to the primary in Arizona that's coming up in weeks and with the general election," Dhillon told Garret Lewis.
She continued, "All the information that they needed to bring this frivolous and politically based indictment has been in the hands of these prosecutors in different states, thanks to the January 6 committee investigation in the House and thanks to the likely coordination of all of this between special counsel and the Biden administration literally for years."
Mayes said the quiet part out loud before announcing the grand jury indictment in the latest election interference lawfare, declaring, “We absolutely have to get President Biden reelected.” This means shutting down the so-called election deniers when they shut down the voting centers, remove Republican observers from the counting rooms, and thousands of Joe Biden ballots magically appear.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, even the Associated Press admits, “Charges against Trump’s 2020 ‘fake electors’ are expected to deter a repeat this year.”
Full interview below:
Lewis: Joining me now because there were 11 people indicted yesterday, one of them is Senator Jake Hoffman. His attorney, Harmeet Dhillon joins me now. What's your reaction to the fact that Kris Mayes admitted on national TV that she'll do, I guess, whatever it takes to get Joe Biden reelected and look at what happened to Jake?
Dhillon: Yeah, well, my reaction is, who's doing the election rigging here? Is it President Trump, or is it President Biden? Because it sure sounds like the timing of this prosecution was specifically for purposes of trying to affect, in a positive way, Democrats' chances, certainly with respect to the primary in Arizona that's coming up in weeks and with the general election because, frankly, all the information that they needed to bring this frivolous and politically based indictment has been in the hands of these prosecutors in different states, thanks to the January 6 committee investigation in the House and thanks to the likely coordination of all of this between special counsel and the Biden administration literally for years. So, the fact that they're bringing this almost four years after the fact is clearly an example of election rigging by the Democrats.
Lewis: To me, it just shows how scared they are because they know what is about to happen, and they can't stop it. Is there anything here at all? All I know is these 11 people signed a piece of paper, that's what they did. They signed a piece of paper, and I don't believe it's illegal. There have been alternate electors that have been used in the 1800s to settle an election, so is there anything here that is actually illegal?
Dhillon: There have been alternative electors used in the 1960s by the Democratic Party. It was suggested in the 2020 election by Democrat activists, including Van Jones and Larry Lessig, to do it in Pennsylvania in the very election for which these citizens got indicted for their work in Arizona. So, you know, briefly, the facts are that they signed as alternate electors to preserve the opportunity in the event that ongoing litigation in Arizona, like there was ongoing litigation in other states where people have been indicted: Nevada, Michigan, and Georgia. In the event to preserve the opportunity, in the event of a successful outcome in court. That's all. That's a protected First Amendment activity by these citizens, and to indict them for that is really outrageous. It will not stand, but the point of the Democrats here is simply to throw sand in the gears of this election.
Lewis: Yeah, it's just to scare people, I think, from ever, you know, wanting to actually say, ‘Hey, maybe something's not right here’ or ‘We're gonna do something about this.’ This is pure tyranny. So, where do you go from here? What is the next step? Is this going to be just challenged, do you have to go to a trial, what happens?
Dhillon: The next step typically in a criminal proceeding is, first of all, they have to serve everybody. And, you know, they just dumped these on the media yesterday, and eventually, they'll serve people. And then, there's typically a threshold process of motions to dismiss the indictment on various grounds, and boy, are there plenty of grounds in this case? So, I don't want to tip our hand, but we'll be doing motion practice like every other defense counsel, I'm sure. And then if there's still a case left after we hopefully, you know, destroy it, if there's still any case left after that, then there'll be a discovery process where the government's obligation is to turn over to the defense all the evidence they have in support of these ridiculous charges. But just to give you a couple of examples, they're being prosecuted for conspiracy, fraud, and forgery.Fraud, throughout the United States and in the western speaking world, requires that somebody had acted in reliance and detriment on the actions that are complained of. Nothing happened here. These people signed a piece of paper. Nobody acted in reliance on the actions in order to change the outcome of an election. The United States Congress did not vote differently. Nobody voted differently as a result of this alternative electors blink. Forgery requires a guilty conscience and intention to fool somebody with your forged document. Again, the Trump campaign and everybody involved here was very out in the open and transparent that these were alternate electors, a contingent plan in the event of a positive outcome in court. Period, full stop. No forgery, no fall, no fraud. And then conspiracy is simply a mush that lazy prosecutors use to try to tie things and people together. This is absolutely laughable and frankly shocked me as a lawyer that a so-called Attorney General, who, by the way, I think is not the legitimate Attorney General of Arizona, concocted. So, we feel very strongly about this. Jake is a great client, he is a public servant in your state, and we are looking forward to going to court to clear him of the fake charges.
A Democrat lawmaker in California has introduced a bill to ban “excessive homework.”
California State Assemblymember Pilar Schiavo introduced the Healthy Homework Act (AB 2999) to “make homework more supportive and less stressful.”
The Healthy Homework Act (AB 2999) Advances!
With local control and input from teachers, students, and parents, #AB2999 aims to create supportive, equitable homework policies for our kids’ mental and physical health. Let’s make homework more supportive and less stressful! pic.twitter.com/4JawwuztZ0
— Assemblymember Pilar Schiavo (@AsmPilarSchiavo) April 24, 2024
Schiavo was clearly going for “cool mom” points, as her daughter is a sixth-grade student who finds homework “exhausting.”
“Homework is exhausting. It’s overwhelming, ” Schiavo’s daughter, Sofia Johnson, told Fox 40. “It’s depressing that my whole day- from when I wake up to when I go to bed- is nearly all taken up with schoolwork.”
Fox 40 explains, “AB 2999 would not ban homework, however, the proposal would mandate local school boards and educational agencies to establish homework policies that consider impacts on students’ physical and mental health all with input from parents, teachers, and students themselves.”
“I think this is going to make a huge impact for students,” Schiavo told the station. “The times have changed and our homework policies don’t always change with the times, so we need to make sure we are addressing issues that are effective and also don’t harm kids.”
Schiavo claimed that easing up kids’ workloads will help their mental health.
“If it’s such a source of stress for kids, and we know taking stress off kids’ plates will make a difference in their mental health, this is something that can practically impact kids’ mental health overnight,” Schiavo added.
The bill has unanimously passed the assembly education committee with no opposition.
The International Criminal Court (ICC) is reportedly on the verge of issuing arrest warrants for several senior Israeli government officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, over allegations connected to the Israeli-Hamas conflict, according to insights from five anonymous Israeli and foreign officials cited by the New York Times.
The officials, speaking on the condition of anonymity, suggested that the ICC is also considering similar actions against leaders of Hamas. The potential charges may relate to hindering the delivery of humanitarian aid to Gaza and what has been described as a disproportionate response to the Hamas-led attacks on October 7.
The Israeli officials have expressed concern about the implications of such cases, with fears mounting that Prime Minister Netanyahu might be directly named in the warrants. Specific charges against Hamas leaders have not been clarified.
The Israeli government is actively seeking to counteract the ICC’s possible actions.
Spearheaded by the National Security Council and with the involvement of the Foreign Ministry, Israel is leaving no stone unturned, an Israeli diplomat told The Times of Israel.
IDF international spokesman Nadav Shoshani conducted an uncommon Shabbat briefing for international journalists, highlighting Israel’s support for a temporary humanitarian pier off Gaza’s coast, aimed at mitigating the ICC’s potential actions.
Reports indicate that the United States is engaged in a diplomatic bid to halt the ICC’s progress.
The official confirmed earlier reports from Hebrew-language media that the United States was part of a last-ditch diplomatic effort to prevent the ICC from moving forward.
Writing for the Walla news site, analyst Ben Caspit said Netanyahu was “under unusual stress” over the prospect of an arrest warrant against him and other Israelis by the United Nations tribunal in The Hague, which would constitute a major deterioration in Israel’s international status.
Netanyahu was leading a “nonstop push over the telephone” to prevent an arrest warrant, focused especially on the administration of US President Joe Biden, Caspit reported.
Haaretz analyst Amos Harel reported that the Israeli government was working under the assumption that the ICC’s prosecutor, Karim Khan, may this week issue warrants for the arrest of Netanyahu, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi.
Amid the reports, Foreign Minister Israel Katz said Sunday that Israel “expects the court to refrain” from issuing arrest warrants.
“There is nothing more twisted than trying to prevent Israel from defending itself against a murderous enemy that openly calls for the destruction of Israel,” said Katz in a statement. “If the orders are issued, they will harm the commanders and soldiers of the IDF and give a boost to the terrorist organization Hamas and the radical Islamic axis led by Iran against which we are fighting.”
Katz stressed that Israel adheres to “all the laws of war,” and instructed Israel’s diplomatic missions around the world to prepare for a severe wave of antisemitism if the ICC issues arrest warrants.
Netanyahu has stated that any decisions by the ICC will not deter Israel’s defense strategies but will set a dangerous precedent affecting not just Israeli soldiers but also the broader geopolitical landscape.
“Under my leadership, Israel will never accept any attempt by the ICC to undermine its inherent right of self-defense,” Netanyahu wrote on X.
“The threat to seize the soldiers and officials of the Middle East’s only democracy and the world’s only Jewish state is outrageous. We will not bow to it. Israel will continue to wage to victory our just war against genocidal terrorists and we will never stop defending ourselves.”
“While the ICC will not affect Israel’s actions, it would set a dangerous precedent that threatens the soldiers and officials of all democracies fighting savage terrorism and wanton aggression.”
Under my leadership, Israel will never accept any attempt by the ICC to undermine its inherent right of self-defense.
The threat to seize the soldiers and officials of the Middle East’s only democracy and the world’s only Jewish state is outrageous. We will not bow to it.

Israel is not a member of the court, based in The Hague, and does not recognise its jurisdiction, but the Palestinian territories were admitted as a member state in 2015.
ICC Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan said in October the court had jurisdiction over any potential war crimes carried out by Hamas fighters in Israel and by Israelis in the Gaza Strip.
Khan has said his team is actively investigating any crimes allegedly committed in Gaza and that those who are in breach of the law will be held accountable.

With 124 permanent members, the ICC can prosecute individuals for war crimes, crimes against humanity, genocide and aggression.
The case at the ICC is separate from the genocide case launched against Israel at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) also based in The Hague.
The ICJ, also known as the World Court, is a United Nations court that deals with disputes between states while the ICC is a treaty-based criminal court focusing on individual criminal responsibility for war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide.
Billionaire Tesla and SpaceX founder Elon Musk responded to the news on Sunday that the United States is considering a decade-long security agreement to deliver support to Ukraine, calling it “insane” and labeling Ukraine’s war with Russia “The forever war.”
Per David Sacks, co-host of the All In podcast, “Zelensky announces that Ukraine is working on a security agreement with the U.S. that will fix levels of support for the next 10 years. The $61 billion was just the beginning.The next two U.S. presidents won’t be able to switch it off.”
Elon musk relied to his post on X, saying, “This is insane. The forever war.”
The Gateway Pundit reported on Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s video announcement on Sunday, where he explained that Ukraine and the United States are currently in discussions about a new security agreement and “working on fixing specific levels of support for this year and for the next ten years.”
“Glory to Ukraine!” Zelensky declared to conclude his message.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) also reacted, predicting, "after all the Ukrainian men have been slaughtered, next they will put American troops on the ground" and declaring that Johnson's "days as Speaker are numbered."
Recall that Greene filed and announced a Motion to Vacate the chair and remove Mike Johnson as Speaker after the House passed a $1.2 trillion spending bill with more support from Democrats than Republicans. The vote – 286 to 134 – had 185 Democrats and 101 Republicans voting ‘yay.’ It was later passed by the Democrat-controlled Senate. The Gateway Pundit reported that Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) recently announced he will co-sponsor Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Motion to Vacate the Chair and remove Mike Johnson as Speaker of the House over his ongoing support for Ukraine as our southern border remains wide open. Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ) later added his name to the list of Republican co-sponsors following the passage of another $61 billion to Ukraine earlier this month.
However, The Gateway Pundit reported on Monday that Johnson's Democrat friends plan to come to his rescue after he sold out and rammed their agenda through the House.
Zelenskyy's announcement comes just after Johnson and Schumer passed three bills to hand out $95 Billion in “foreign aid” to Ukraine, Israel, Gaza, and other non-U.S.-involved conflict zones around the world. Of the $95 Billion, over $61 Billion was allocated for Ukraine.
The handout to Ukraine was sold to the American people as a “loan.” However, as The Gateway Pundit reported, the package Johnson announced Wednesday includes terms that will allow the President to cancel 50% of Ukraine’s debt after November 15, 2024, and the remaining 50% after January 1, 2024. It’s no wonder Joe Biden came out “strongly” in support of the package, urging the House and Senate to pass it.
This means after President Trump wins the 2024 election, as expected, Joe Biden can cancel 50% of Ukraine’s debt before his term ends in January. However, if Biden and the Democrats pull off another stolen election, they can forgive 100% of Ukraine’s debt a little over one year later. This isn’t a loan. It’s a handout.
Likewise, a ten-year agreement with Ukraine could abdicate any authority Trump has to end the funding.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) revealed that only $44 to $47 billion–40%–of the $113 billion that the United States has handed out to Ukraine is lethal aid.” So what was the other 66 to $69 billion for?” Roy asked on Bannon’s War Room. Ten more years of this...
Two bills from the latest handout package, the Indo-Pacific Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024 and the Ukraine Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024, both passed the House with more support from Democrats than Republicans. All 112 “Nay” votes on a bill to send $60 billion to Ukraine came from Republicans, with101 Republicans voting “AYE” with 210 Democrats. Every single Democrat voted in favor of sending additional taxpayer money to secure a foreign border, more than doubling the number of Republican votes in favor.
Speaker Johnson arrogantly declared himself a “wartime speaker” before announcing the massive foreign aid package to fund multiple countries oceans away — but not the United States. The United States is not even at war with anyone!
Additionally, The Gateway Pundit reported that the Pentagon confirmed last Wednesday that the US secretly sent long-range Army Tactical Missile Systems to Ukraine as part of the $61 billion dollar package passed by Democrats, RINOs, Speaker Johnson and signed by Joe Biden.
Obviously, Americans did not know about these long-range missiles being part of the $61 billion deal. Did Mike Johnson know about this? Did the RINOs? Why did they hide this from American taxpayers? Why would they send these offensive weapons to war-torn Ukraine? Steve Bannon on Saturday told Ben Harnwell he is “very disturbed about Johnson,” calling the latest move a “criminal conspiracy.”
TENET reporter Taylor Hansen is held back by security at the Utah GOP Convention when he tried to ask Governor Cox a few questions.
The Utah Republican Party State Convention was held Saturday in Salt Lake City.
The theme this year appeared to be TAKE BACK YOUR RED STATE.
During introductions on Saturday woke Governor Spencer Cox was LOUDLY BOOED by the Republican crowd. Cox is famous for introducing himself with his pronouns when speaking to school children.
Challenger Phil Lyman was cheered enthusiastically by the same Utah crowd.
Phil Lyman later picked up 67% of the convention votes to defeat sitting Governor Spencer Cox!
Loudly booed, @GovCox loses Utah’s GOP Convention with @phil_lyman receiving 67.54% of the vote!
Nate Lyman was thrilled with the win telling supporters, “I am proud to announce that I have won Utah’s Republican State Nominating Convention in my campaign for Governor. I am beyond grateful for the unwavering support that I have received. I mean it from the bottom of my heart when I say we could not have done this without committed grassroots patriots across the state. Our victory tonight gives us the momentum we need going into the June 25th primary election. Together, we can ensure Better Roads Ahead for Utah. Thank you again for your support today.”

Eva Vlaardinbroek exposes the end game of the globalist elites and their Great Replacement Theory at CPACHungary in April 2024.
CPAC Hungary was held this weekend in Budapest, Hungary.
The conference was attended by conservatives from though out the continent and America.
The unexpected highlight of the weekend conference may have been the riveting speech by the beautiful Eva Vlaardingerbroek.
Eva did not hold back in her defense of Christian Europe and the current assault by the globalist left to destroy our civilization.
Here is the transcript from Eva Vlaardingerbroek’s CPAC speech.
Eva Vlaardingerbroek: Hello, Hungary. Hello, Budapest. Hello, fellow Europeans and American friends. Thank you so much for having me. Allow me to skip from Mathies for a moment and dive right into a subject that is not so cheerful, but very, very necessary to discuss. Let me walk you through the past seven days in Europe.
This week in Stockholm, three Three elderly women in their 70s were stabbed in broad daylight on the streets. In London, four people were stabbed in a time span of just 42 hours. In Paris, hundreds of Afghan migrants took to the street to riot. And – also in France, yet another church was burned down to the ground. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is just a few incidents in just a couple of days on our beautiful continent. But we all know that these incidents aren’t incidents anymore. If there’s one thing that’s for sure is that we know, and our governments also know, that there is a link between mass migration and crime.
In a Dutch city of Dordrecht, something interesting happened the other day. They announced, and this is a small city in the Netherlands, in my home country, that a new asylum center will be put in that little town. And what did the municipality do? They said, We are going to offer citizens who live in the vicinity of this center, a thousand euros to take extra safety measures. Our new reality in Europe consists of frequent rapes, stabbings, killings, murders, shootings, even beheadings. But let me be clear about one thing. This did not used to happen before. This is a newly imported problem.
Samuel P. Huntington predicted this over 25 years ago when he wrote, and I quote, In the new world of mass migration, the most pervasive, important, and dangerous conflict will not be between the social classes. They will not be between the rich and the poor. They will be between peoples belonging to different cultural entities. Tribal wars and ethnic conflicts will occur within civilizations. Well, boy, was he right? And the worst part is, we as a society seem to have become indifferent to it. When another white boy or a white girl dies at the hand of an immigrant, We might shake our head, we might let out a sigh, we might even get angry for a minute or two, and then we go on with our lives. We offer the family thoughts and prayers, but nothing ever changes.
Ladies and gentlemen, what does that say about us? This is the response of a society that has already given up, a society that has already accepted its defeat. But is this true? Have we given up? Do we really accept the new reality that our globalist leaders have in mind for us? I know one thing for sure, and that is that if nothing changes, if we don’t start to seriously fight for our continent, for our religion, for our people, our countries, then this time that we live in will go down in history as the in which Western nations no longer had to get invaded by hostile armies in order to be conquered. This time will then go down in history as the period in which the invader was actively invited in by a corrupt elite. And not only did this corrupt elite invite the enemy in, they made the native population pay for it, too.
Everyone who has eyes can see it. The native, white, Christian, European population is being replaced at an ever-accelerating rate. Let me back this up for you with some statistics from my home country. Let’s take Amsterdam, the capital. Amsterdam currently consists of 56% migrants. The Hague, 58% migrants. Rotterdam, almost 60% migrants. Of course, most of these immigrants come from non-Christian, non-western, African and Middle Eastern countries. Conclusion, the Dutch population is already outnumbered in the majority of our cities. But let’s look onwards. London, 54% migrants. Again, conclusion, native population outnumbered. Brussels, color me shocked, 70% migrants. Conclusion, native population, majorly outnumbered. Other Europeans will, of course, follow suit soon if they haven’t already.
I’m going to draw the forbidden conclusion here. The great replacement theory is no longer a theory, it’s reality. What’s interesting about replacement is that the establishment will either deny its existence or when they admit to it, they say that it’s a good thing that the native European population is soon no longer a majority on its own continent. Dutch national disgrace, and dubbed Climate Pope, Frantz Timmermans, already stated in 2015 that diversity is humanity’s destiny, and that Europe will be diverse.
And of course, by now, I think we all know what they mean with the word diversity. It means less white people, less of you. Imagine this in an Asian or an African country. Imagine their leaders rejoicing in the fact that their people will soon no longer be a majority in their own country. Absolutely unthinkable, unimaginable. Reasonable. So what in the world is wrong with our leaders? The underlying sentiment of what they say is always the same. Our establishment claims that white people are evil and that Our history is somehow fundamentally different from that of others. Consciously or unconsciously, they have sucked up the lies and the anti-white dogmas of the neo-Marxist critical race theory.
That’s what the totalitarians in Brussels are trying to force you, the Hungarian people, a sovereign nation, to accept immigrants despite the fact that the population has said no, and so has the government. But make no mistake, the majority of the Dutch people haven’t asked for this either. Just like Brussels is forcing Hungary to accept these words of immigrants, they are doing the same now, even in the smallest of towns in the Netherlands. No part may remain remain Dutch in the traditional sense of the word. No part of Europe may remain European. It’s not difficult to understand why. If the old Europe still exists in certain places, then people will be able to compare the new Europe to the old, and news flash, they will prefer the old. That’s why the Eurocrats hate Hungary so much.
And their message is clear. Our way of life, our Christian religion, our nations, they have to go without exception. Their vision of the future is the neoliberal, unrecognizable Europe, where every city becomes like Brussels. Ugly, dirty, unsafe, zero social cohesion, where the buildings are constantly under construction and they never, ever seem to finish. Even when they do, the end result is ugly or somehow than what they started with. What are we left with? A permanent state of isolation, confusion, and disorientation. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the New World Order.
So what’s the antidote? A strong Christian Europe of sovereign Nation States. That’s why we need to outright reject the lie that nationalism causes war. It’s not nationalism or national sovereignty that causes war. It’s expansionism. Where in Europe do we find that nowadays? In one place and one place only, Brussels. Isn’t it funny how the same people who erode our national sovereignty and love to do it, give it all up to the Eurocrats there, that those people are now telling us that we need to spend billions and billions of euros on the national sovereignty of Ukraine? It’s a joke, honestly, and it’s a pretty sick, expensive, and dangerous joke.
During a recent interview, I got asked by an interviewer, Do you think that you ever go too far? Do you think that you’re ever too radical? I thought about it for a second and I said, No, I don’t think I go too far. Truth be told, ladies and gentlemen, I think we in Europe do not go far enough. I think that if we really think about the organized structural attack on our civilization, that we don’t do enough. Do we do enough to stop the attack on our families, on our continent, on our countries, on our religion. When we hear about another murder, another stabbing of a young innocent child, do we do enough? When we know that our national sovereignty has been given up in last than a century to Brussels, Do we do enough? When we hear that Christian kids in Germany are now converting to Islam to fit in, do we do enough? I don’t think so. The Totalitarian Institute of the European Union needs to come down. Let me be clear, I don’t believe in reforms. When the foundation of your institution is rotten, and that is the case in Brussels, you can rebuild the house on top of it all you want, but it’s still going to crumble.
So the only answer is the Tower of Babel needs to be destroyed. Ladies and gentlemen, we are the daughters and sons of the greatest nations on Earth. And we need to ask ourselves, what has happened to us? Where do we come from? And more importantly, where are we going? Our elites have declared a war on us, and now it is time for us to put on the full armor of God, fight back, and win. Thank you so much.

“The problem with “Great Replacement Theory” is that it fails to address the foundational issue of low birth rates.
Record low birth rates are leading to population collapse in Europe and even faster population collapse in most of Asia. Immigration is low in Asia, so there is no “replacement” going on, the countries are simply shrinking away.
If this doesn’t turn around, then any countries on Earth with low birth rates will become empty of people and fall into ruin, like the remains we see of the many long dead civilizations.”

Eva’s speech already has 36.7 million views in less than 48 hours.
This speech is the reason why the Biden administration and Western elites are so desperate to control speech. They can’t allow the people to have access to free thoughts and differing ideas. Because the elites are leading Western civilization to ruin. It appears that was their plan all along.
In a recent bombshell interview with YouTube creator “The Real Dana,” Judge Joe Brown unleashed a torrent of criticism against several high-profile individuals, including John Legend, Fani Willis, Barack Obama, and Joe Biden, whom he referred to as a “lowdown scummy bastard.”
Brown’s remarks came after Legend publicly supported Biden and called President Donald Trump “racist.”
Judge Brown held nothing back as he traced the issues within the American criminal justice system and its impact on black communities back to legislative actions that he attributed to Biden and other lawmakers in past decades.
“Most of what is wrong with the criminal justice system in the United States of America, this trickled down from the federal level to the state level that negatively impacts blacks and other minorities, was started off in 1979, 1981, 1983, 1987, 1991, and 1994, thanks to Joe Biden, Stennis, Eastland, and Byrd ” Brown said.
“And you can thank them for some of the problems with American criminal law, as they negatively impact black folk. This mess about all of these people in jail, first offenders for one rock, you can thank Joe Biden for with his mess about crack, even though it seems to have settled into his household quite heavily,” Brown added.
Judge Brown went on to recount a meeting he claimed to have witnessed where Biden allegedly made racist comments about Black people, adding that these attitudes were reflected in Biden’s legislative actions over the years.
“I heard the low-down, scummy bastard say it in front of me. It was in Dover, Delaware. He was on the podium. He said, ‘Negroes are animals, and they turn the streets into jungles, and they need to be put in zoos where they are safe and can be observed.’ He said, ‘Negro children are animals, and they turn schools into zoos. And I don’t want my children going to a school with Negroes, and it turned into a zoo.’ I heard him say that. I saw him when he said it. He’s a liar,” said Brown.
“He had to withdraw from the presidential campaign in 1988 because he lied about his academic career. He got found out early for having plagiarized some things that caused his expulsion from an academic institution. He’s a piece of urban trailer park trash who’s had nothing but government jobs his entire life and has turned out not to be a very rich man because of the bribes, the extortion, and the downright payoffs he has gotten under the table illegally,” Brown added.
Beyond his criticism of Biden, Brown also took aim at Fani Willis, suggesting her actions were politically motivated and part of a “witch hunt” against Trump. He implied that the investigation into Trump’s handling of classified documents was an attempt to shield Biden and Obama from incrimination based on evidence found on a laptop belonging to Biden’s son, Hunter Biden.
Brown’s diatribe did not spare Barack Obama or John Legend, whom Brown dismissed as being unqualified to speak on political matters due to a lack of relevant background. He also chastised the public for what he believes is a misinterpretation of Biden’s track record on race-related issues.
“Every damn thing I’ve seen about Biden, for the last 50 years, I have been hearing making one racist remark after another,” Brown added, expressing his disapproval of Biden’s past policies and comments.
Judge Brown concluded his heated commentary by praising Donald Trump and addressing the broader political landscape and the tactics used to engage black voters, expressing disdain for what he views as pandering and insincere strategies.
“You’re getting a singer [John Legend] coming on. He’s got a right under the First Amendment to express his opinion. So do these clowns, including the one-third of the cast that were trannies who were dancing half-naked on the strip poles. They’ve got their right to do that as a form of expression, but that is insulting the black folk that they should be persuaded by it.”
“The unemployment rate for black folk was the lowest it’s been since 1968 under Donald Trump. The earning capacity of black folk was the highest it’s been since 1968 under Trump. The greatest amount of money, percentage-wise of the national budget and in actual dollars, devoted to HBCUs since 1968 under the Johnson administration was under Donald Trump. And it goes on. He endorsed the platinum plan that Ice Cube, who had made some study of the situation, was trying to work out with him.”
“But in spite of that, we’ve got this character who is a disaster, getting up there and trying to get us to accept this with his grin on his face when it is a complete lie. It’s a propagandistic fabrication, and it is insulting to insinuate that we are foolish enough to buy that.”
For the time being, additional military aid has been approved to Ukraine. At the next possible opportunity though, there should be a move by Congress, or a new Administration to apply control measures to this aid to bring it in alignment with how U.S. military aid is normally applied.
The Ukraine War should be looked at as the first of several regional conflicts implemented against American under the “No Limits” agreement between Xi and Putin to topple America. But at the same time, there are serious and fact-based concerns with money laundering, fraud, and corruption in Ukraine.
Russia is the major tributary state of China in the Chinese Communist Party’s move to defeat America. Russia should be looked at as neither friend, nor enemy – instead they are a totalitarian regime with nuclear weapons, that has chosen to align itself with China.
There was a period when world history could have been changed and a historic rapprochement with Russia established. That was the 1990s, when Russia was teetering on the verge of collapse.
For some inexplicable reason, Secretary of State Madeline Albright and company in the Clinton Administration chose to bravely step forward and kick Russia in the teeth when Russia was on its knees. So unfortunately, that ship has sailed, and Russia is on the Chinese Team and China intends to topple America through Unrestricted Warfare.
Appointing a dedicated Inspector General to oversee Ukraine Aid
The role of the Inspector Generals (IGs) in U.S. Departments and Agencies is very important. Not well understood is that IGs often are armed, badged, and have arrest authority. One reason for this is that when investigating malfeasance, even darker and capital misdeeds may be uncovered. In Iraq and Afghanistan, there were robust IG efforts that uncovered multiple instances of grotesque fraud, waste, and abuse.
An IG has now been appointed for Ukraine. That is good news. This happened last fall in October 2023. It is interesting that once the appointment of a part time IG for Ukraine happened, Haiti suddenly performed assigned duties flawlessly and re-collapsed.
Haiti is where the Clinton’s learned the art of money laundering, but by the Obama-Biden era, the realization was that Haiti did not scale. This is why the Obama-Biden Team started seeking larger scale opportunities like Panama, Malta, and Cyprus.
In the early days of the Russian invasion in 2014, the Obama Team couldn’t have cared less about Ukraine – until they realized the vast scale of money laundering opportunities. Then they were suddenly all in.
The current arrangement is that the DOD IG is dual hatted as the Ukraine IG. This unacceptable – Ukraine needs a dedicated IG. In my efforts on election integrity, I’ve become far more learned on IG-like capabilities within the states.
I’ve been a bit shocked – most states have a nascent IG function, if any at all – most often it’s an additional duty buried in the State Patrol. More States should have a far larger and more robust IG operation.
Securing the Southern Border
The unwillingness of Congress to assign equal or greater importance of securing the Southern, and now Northern Border is insulting to most Americans. If the American homeland border was secure, there would be far greater willingness of the American people to consider condition-based support for Ukraine.
10,000 Americans a month are now dying from Fentanyl made in Mexico, by the Cartels, under Chinese supervision, with 100% of the formulary components coming from China. Almost all Fentanyl comes across the Southern Border.
120,000 dead Americans a year is greater than all the American combat deaths from forty years of combat in Vietnam combined with the entire War on Terror. Everyone reading this likely knows a friend or family affected by Fentanyl.
New York, Philadelphia, and San Francisco now have large No-Go zones due to the Fentanyl Apocalypse. In addition, the flood across the border consists of multiple Brigades of Chinese Special Operators who immediately converge on high cash operations like “legal cannabis”, massage parlors, casinos, abortion clinics, and similar ventures.
Globalists and Deep Staters want Government Digital Currency so they can control society and behavior – but they like the carve out and will maintain these high cash operation exceptions that can be locally-skimmed and used as mini-Ukraines and mini-Haitis for tactical de-stabilization activities (such as the “Palestinian” Protests).
Accelerate the expansion of the American Industrial Base
Jake has never run anything except his mouth and wouldn’t know an assembly line from a hole in the ground. Newsflash to Sullivan, the Defense Industrial Base would gladly churn out more weapons to replenish American stocks and actually give the Taiwanese the arms they’ve already paid for – if a contract was signed.
The reality is that the negotiation of contracts is significantly lagging. No one expands production without signed contracts. We don’t need a forever war defense industrial complex, but we do need the world’s best Arsenal of Democracy 2.0 to build up American readiness so that a greater worldwide conflict with China and Chinese proxies is deterred.
We just blew $1B worth of ordnance defending Israel against Iran, the second biggest Chinese proxy, which worked well and was worth the investment. The game is on, and the stakes are mortal in the world showdown with China. But unchecked largess flowing to Ukraine is not helpful to American interests and condition-based aid must be resolved at the earliest possible moment. PS – another condition of the aid – full revelation of the extent and role of Government provocateurs in J6 and nullification of all J6 prosecutions.
“I don’t regret anything I said… I haven’t taken anything I said then back."
Mitch McConnell stands by remarks that former President Trump is "practically and morally responsible for provoking the events of January 6" and should potentially be held "criminally responsible" pic.twitter.com/UvUz9GvjkG
It is widely known at this time that President Trump called for 10,000 to 20,000 National Guard troops to the US Capitol two days before the January 6 protests.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi turned them down. DC Mayor Muriel Bowser also turned them down!
Earlier this month National Guard whistleblowers testified before Congress that NOT ONLY was the National Guard turned away by Nancy Pelosi before January 6, but the National Guard was ready to be deployed on January 6th but the Pentagon delayed their orders until HOURS AFTer the violence started.
Mitch McConnell knows this yet he lied again about President Trump's actions on January 6, 2021.
Now you know why he is referred to here as a POS.
McConnell is determined to screw Trump in the 2024 election just like his pal Paul Ryan did in 2018.

Rep. Mike Johnson (R-LA) led the House Republican Caucus in prayer after he was elected as their candidate for U.S. House Speaker.
Mike Johnson’s betrayal of Republican voters may have saved him the Speakership as his Democrat colleagues plan to come to his rescue amidst a threat of Motion to Vacate by America First Republicans in the House.
Now that the GOP only has a one-vote majority in the House thanks to the selfish early resignations by Kevin McCarthy (RINO-CA), Ken Buck (RINO-CO), and Mike Gallagher (RINO-WI) along with the stupid ousting of George Santos (R-NY), Johnson needs only to appeal to the Democrats and overwhelming majority of RINOs within the Republican conference.
The news that Democrats are backing Johnson comes as Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) recently announced he will co-sponsor Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Motion to Vacate the Chair and remove Mike Johnson as Speaker of the House over his ongoing support for Ukraine as our southern border remains wide open.
Greene filed and announced her motion after the House passed a $1.2 trillion spending bill with more support from Democrats than Republicans. The vote – 286 to 134 – had 185 Democrats and 101 Republicans voting ‘yay.’ It was later passed by the Democrat-controlled Senate.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Johnson recently cut a deal with Democrats in passing three bills to hand out $95 Billion in “foreign aid” to Ukraine, Israel, Gaza, and other non-U.S.-involved conflict zones around the world. Of the $95 Billion, $61 Billion was allocated for Ukraine.
Rep. Andy Biggs said last week, “The Speaker actually put together a coalition with Democrats to get the Ukraine funding that was $65 billion or so.” Prior to this and the passage of $95 billion in aid, The Gateway Pundit reported that Johnson was negotiating with the Biden regime to introduce a substantial funding package for foreign conflicts and whip up opposition from the Democrats to a Motion to Vacate against him.
The handout to Ukraine was sold to the American people as a “loan.” However, as The Gateway Pundit reported, the package Johnson announced Wednesday includes terms that will allow the President to cancel 50% of Ukraine’s debt after November 15, 2024, and the remaining 50% after January 1, 2024. No wonder Joe Biden came out “strongly” in support of the package, urging the House and Senate to pass it.
This means after President Trump wins the 2024 election, as expected, Joe Biden can cancel 50% of Ukraine’s debt before his term ends in January. However, if Biden and the Democrats pull off another stolen election, they can forgive 100% of Ukraine’s debt a little over one year later. This isn’t a loan. It’s a handout. It was a total surrender on the part of Mike Johnson.
Additionally, as The Gateway Pundit reported, Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) revealed that only $44 to $47 billion–40%–of the $113 billion that the United States has handed out to Ukraine is lethal aid.” So what was the other 66 to $69 billion for?” Roy asked on Bannon’s War Room.
Two bills from the latest handout package, the Indo-Pacific Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024 and the Ukraine Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024, both passed the House with more support from Democrats than Republicans. This comes after Republicans under Mike Johnson’s leadership gave up a $1.2 trillion spending bill, also with more support from Democrats than Republicans, and reauthorization for warrantless searches of Americans under FISA Section 702.
All 112 “Nay” votes on a bill to send $60 billion to Ukraine came from Republicans, with101 Republicans voting “AYE” with 210 Democrats. Every single Democrat voted in favor of sending additional taxpayer money to secure a foreign border, more than doubling the number of Republican votes in favor.
Speaker Johnson arrogantly declared himself a “wartime speaker” before announcing the massive foreign aid package to fund multiple countries oceans away — but not the United States. The United States is not even at war with anyone!
In a more recent development, the Pentagon confirmed on Wednesday that the U.S. secretly sent long-range Army Tactical Missile Systems to Ukraine as part of the $61 billion dollar package passed by Democrats, RINOs, and Speaker Johnson and signed by Joe Biden.
Steve Bannon on Saturday told Ben Harnwell he is “very disturbed about Johnson,” calling the latest move a “criminal conspiracy.”
Then, on Sunday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced that the U.S. and Ukraine are “working on fixing specific levels of support for this year and for the next ten years,” seemingly taking away President Trump’s power to do anything once passed.
A centrist House Democrat said Sunday there is "no way" his colleagues will allow Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) to remove House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.).
Why it matters: Greene has not ruled out forcing a vote on her motion to vacate against Johnson when the House returns to session on Monday.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) has also suggested Democrats would likely save the speaker.
What he's saying: Asked on MSNBC's "The Weekend" how Democrats feel about Greene's motion to vacate, Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.) said "obviously we'll wait for Leader Jeffries to figure out that solution."
Several hundred pro-Hamas students, angered by an attempted arrest of a protester by police, rioted at George Washington University overnight, located a few blocks west of the White House in Washington, D.C. The students tore down barricades that had blocked off an earlier attempted ‘occupy’ protest on campus grounds at University Yard (U-Yard). The students retook U-Yard, erecting tents and planting Palestinian flags on the pile of barricades. A Palestinian flag and keffiyeh draped on a statue of our nation’s first President George Washington at the start of the protest several days ago were still desecrating America’s founding father.
The protest is part of an attempt to foment communist revolution in the U.S., using college campuses as a focal point, with an alliance of terrorist supporting communists and Islamists.
GWU had cleared the ‘occupy’ protest at U-Yard several days ago and was allowing only about twenty protesters to remain. The D.C. government refused to help, reportedly fearing bad optics. D.C. allowed the protesters to take over a city street in front of the campus area for the weekend. Like magic, dozens of tents looking just the ones at other campus protests sprung up on H Street.
Before the riot, GWU had sent out a statement to alumni Sunday night explaining their handling of the protest:

Late Sunday night, campus police officers were prevented by the protesters from arresting one of the activists. A riot ensued where the barricades were torn down.

A transgender biological male is playing Snow White’s Evil Queen at Walt Disney World Resort’s Wilderness Lodge in Florida.

The father spoke to the Disney news site That Park Place, which broke the news that a man is playing a female character.
The upset parent explained, “While we were waiting for the desserts to come out we received our invitation to meet the Evil Queen which we were really looking forward to. Keep in mind we’ve had other meet and greets with other Villains and they are truly the best character experiences that we’ve ever had so we had high hopes for the Evil Queen leading up.”
“So we all walked over towards the Evil Queen area and while my kids and wife were interacting with the character I was doing some video and took a few pictures from about 10 feet away then handed my iPhone over to the cast member to take some pics for me so I could get in the picture. It was kind of loud inside so I couldn’t really hear what the character was saying until I got face to face (typical conversation distance of a few feet) and then it hit me that the Evil Queen without a doubt had a man’s voice.”
The father explained that when he returned to the table he complained to his waiter about the Evil Queen being a man dressed in drag.
“The waiter immediately said he was going to get a manager and he looked panicked…” the father explained. “At first I said I wanted to formally complain about the Evil Queen being a man and that I felt very disrespected by Disney because this is not the sort of thing my family values and they didn’t give us any type of notice that this sort of thing was even a possibility.”
He explained to the manager that they are a conservative Christian family and are spending $8,000 on the current trip. The manager, however, never once apologized.
“At one point the manager stated ‘I can assure you that she is a woman.’ She went even further, trying to shame me, informing me that ‘she’ was so excited to get the part as the Evil Queen,” the father recalled. “For a brief moment I thought ‘oh… maybe I’m wrong’ but then I realized that I was just being gaslighted. I politely told the manager that ‘I know what you are doing and that I do not appreciate the fact that you are trying to be funny and disingenuous.’ So since the manager doubled down I also doubled down and asked ‘is the Evil Queen a biological male?’ The manager’s reply was, ‘I’m sorry sir, I cannot answer that.'”
It appears that the Evil Queen has been portrayed by a man for at least the last several months, as there are multiple videos featuring him on YouTube.
Last year, Disney faced a similar scandal by allowing men to wear dresses and greet children at Bibbidy Bobbidi Boutique Dress Shop.
The high-priced shop takes children through getting princess-ready, complete with “magic mirrors” and a salon where they can get their hair and makeup done after selecting the perfect princess dress to wear while they visit the theme park.
Makeovers at the boutique are limited to children ages 3 to 12.
In previous years, little girls and their parents were met at the door by one of the “fairy godmothers in training,” usually a young woman who helped them decide on their perfect princess makeover.
Now, they appear to be being met by drag queens.
Disney has men dressed as women, wearing dresses greeting children at some of their attractions.
In a video posted to Twitter at the end of May, a mustached man in heavy makeup is seen introducing himself to a child as one of the fairy godmother’s apprentices.

In 2022, Inside the Magic reported, “Boutique Cast Members were formerly called ‘Fairy Godmothers in Training’ but will now be called ‘Fairy Godmother’s Apprentices,’ according to an update on Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World Resort’s websites.”
The report added, “This change is more gender inclusive and will allow Cast Members who don’t identify as female to participate in magical Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique makeovers.”
Altman dons a red Minnie Mouse print dress, big red bow, and a white petticoat before putting his hair in two high buns to simulate the children’s character’s ears.
“I literally look like Minnie Mouse!” Altman declares.
The transgender influencer has 717,000 followers on the platform and frequently makes videos where he is dressed up as a young girl, including a recent one where he is skipping around in fairy wings.
Former White House senior advisor Stephen Miller has warned that Joe Biden should hope that the Supreme Court rules in favor of Donald Trump’s request for presidential immunity.
In an interview on Newsmax, Miller argued that while Biden may be hoping that the Supreme Court rules against Trump’s request, he would benefit from a precedent of presidential immunity in case of his own prosecution for crimes committed while in office.
“If they say there’s no immunity for official acts, the moment Joe Biden leaves office, every single red city and red state DA in the country can charge him for financial crimes related to illegal student loan bailouts, can charge him for war crimes related to deaths of service members overseas, can charge him for human trafficking, human smuggling and by the way, more election interference than you can even count,” said Miller, who currently runs the America First Legal Foundation.
A clip of the interview was shared by Donald Trump on his Truth Social platform.
His comments come as the Supreme Court continues to hear arguments about Trump’s presidential immunity claim, which if upheld would bring an end to the lawfare campaign led by Special Prosecutor Jack Smith.
Trump’s lawyers have argued that no president in America history has ever faced criminal prosecution, underscoring the blatantly political nature of the Democrat’s lawfare campaign.
“In 234 years of American history, no president ever faced criminal prosecution for his official acts. Until 19 days ago, no court had ever addressed whether immunity from such prosecution exists,” they wrote in last month’s filing.
“To this day, no appellate court has addressed it. The question stands among the most complex, intricate, and momentous issues that this Court will be called on to decide.”
Chaos erupted in Michigan at Tuesday’s Ottawa County board meeting after Satanic Temple minister ‘Luis Cypher’ delivered a Satanic invocation at the April 23rd meeting. You can watch the entire meeting here, where the Satanist invocation is from 4:02-7:20.
The Republican-led board recently changed its policies to allow pastors to deliver the invocation instead of Commissioners.
The Satanic Temple signed up and gave an invocation. The meeting descended into chaos in the lobby as people chanted, “We love Jesus!”

Chaos erupted at the Ottawa County board meeting in Michigan when a member of the Satanic Church delivered an invocation to start the gathering.
A man by the name of Luis Cypher, a minister of the Satanic Temple of West Michigan, gave a speech on Tuesday reiterating the importance of separating church and state, one of the main principles of the organization.
But the massive crowd descended into protest as people chanted and sang hymns such as ‘Amazing Grace,’ put signs on the wall that said, ‘God always, Satan never’ and ‘Satan has no rights.’
One man yelled, ‘hail Satan,’ while others yelled, ‘we love Jesus.’
The exchanges remained verbal and did not escalate to physical violence.
Christians showed up in force to counter the forces of what they described as evil. Christians handed out cookies to the assembled group with a sticker referencing John 3:16 from the Bible, which says, “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”

Hundreds of Christians showed up to counter what ended up being a half dozen Satanists. One such Christian was Rachel Atwood, who is also running to be an Ottawa County Commissioner, who told the Gateway Pundit: “The forces of darkness and evil are active in politics and they want to win. They want to win so they can promote DEI, abortion, among other things. More Christians need to get involved right now because our opponents are literal Satanists and atheist leftists LARPing as Satanists.”
The packed crowd inside the lobby of the Ottawa County building for the meeting with the Satanist invocation. Most of those in the crowd identified as Christians.
Many Christians privately noted that the Satanists did not appear to be sincerely worshipping the Devil, but just atheistic left-wing trolls.
And anti-Israel protesters mobbed DC elites as they made their way to the White House Correspondents Dinner.

Ford is losing a staggering amount on every electric vehicle (EV) it sold in the first quarter of 2024, underlining the financially unsustainable nature of the industry.
The company reported a loss of $1.3 billion in its electric vehicle division in the first quarter results, equivalent to $132,000 for each of the 10,000 EVs it sold in the past three months.
Ford, like most automakers, has announced plans to shift from traditional gas-powered vehicles to EVs in coming years. But it is the only traditional automaker to break out results of its retail EV sales. And the results it reported Wednesday show another sign of the profit pressures on the EV business at Ford and other automakers.
The EV unit, which Ford calls Model e, sold 10,000 vehicles in the quarter, down 20% from the number it sold a year earlier. And its revenue plunged 84% to about $100 million, which Ford attributed mostly to price cuts for EVs across the industry. That resulted in the $1.3 billion loss before interest and taxes (EBIT), and the massive per-vehicle loss in the Model e unit.
The losses go far beyond the cost of building and selling those 10,000 cars, according to Ford. Instead the losses include hundreds of millions being spent on research and development of the next generation of EVs for Ford. Those investments are years away from paying off.
Ford, meanwhile, is far from the only EV manufacuter feeling the pain at the moment. Even the most popular brands such as Elon Musk’s Tesla have seen a marked decline in sales, forcing the company to lay off 10 percent of its global workforce.
The news will come as a further blow to the Biden regime, which remains determined to force the transition to EVs despite the lack of clear scientific evidence about the economic and environmental benefits of doing so.
However, The New York Times recently reported that the Biden regime was giving up on many of its EV production targets as part of an election year “concession” to automakers and labor unions.
As a star of the legendary HBO series ‘The Sopranos’, Drea de Matteo got a legion of fans all around America and the world, playing an Italian-American young woman involved in the fatally dangerous world of the New Jersey mafia.
When the show was over, real life de Matteo had to face real life threats that could be just as deadly.
A couple of months ago, it arose that she had to resort to opening a very successful ‘OnlyFans’ account to keep herself and her family above water in the midst of a deep financial crisis.
What many people did not know is that she was driven to such financial dire straits because she was blacklisted in Hollywood. The reason? She would not take the COVID Vaxx. That’s pretty based, right?
“Sopranos actress Drea de Matteo has praised OnlyFans for ‘saving her life’ after her refusal to have the COVID vaccine cost her acting gigs and left her with just $10 in her bank account.
[…] ‘God knows ideologies were pushed forward in the last three years [that] have not helped society’.”
Now, it arises that she is putting herself out there, and saying the things that need to be said, with a kind of courage that we came to expect from her, a much different character than our favorite fictional heroine.
Emmy-winning de Matteo told Donald Trump Jr. in an interview for his podcast ‘Triggered’ that many prominent celebrities like herself ‘are against Biden’s agenda but are afraid to speak out’.
“De Matteo, who rose to fame in HBO’s ‘The Sopranos’, spoke with former President Trump’s son on a recent episode of his ‘Triggered’ podcast. De Matteo has a history of slamming cancel culture, even starting a streetwear brand called ‘Ultrafree’ that helps ‘promote free speech’.”
De Matteo spoke about how she has changed her opinions on certain issues such as illegal immigration, and that while she previously voted for Biden based on sympathy for illegal immigrants, the chaos at the border has changed her mind. After showing off a cap from her friends’ company, Sloppy Tease, that read ‘Close the border you moron’, they discussed the mass illegal immigration of able-bodied, fighting-age men. ‘I just don’t know that they’re here to support the American people’, de Matteo said.”
Trump Jr. asked de Matteo if she had noticed other Hollywood actors who also question modern leftist policy, but don’t quite have the same guts as her.
She considers herself a liberal, but said she has been against modern far-left trends for a long time.
She decided to speak up about it only recently. She said she wanted to fight but felt she didn’t think she ‘the voice and the balls’.
But for her, everything changed once she ‘got thrown to the wolves’, which may or not be a reference to her refusal to take the untested, unsafe COVID injection.
“Once I was out there, I was like, ‘I’m out here, what am I going to do? I’m out of my cage.’ Like, I may as well just, you know, do what I got to do.”
She thanked the support from her boyfriend, God, and her children.
“They believe in what we believe in, which is freedom and unity the right way, not unity the way this administration was trying to push. That was bullshit.”
She slammed the Biden administration hard for taking every social agenda and using it to further their administration, and ‘doing nothing but divide people’.
“‘This administration has just been hammering all of these things’, she argued, ‘and people in Hollywood are petrified. What, are you going to speak out against race, and sex, and all of that stuff? People are afraid to have those conversations.”
“I’m just so liberal that I’m a conservative at this point.”

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, after speaking with Democrat House Leader Hakeem Jeffries, announced on Sunday the U.S. and Ukraine are “working on fixing specific levels of support for this year and for the next ten years.”
This will likely supersede President Trump’s authority on the matter if passed.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Congress recently passed three bills to hand out $95 Billion in “foreign aid” to Ukraine, Israel, Gaza, and other non-U.S.-involved conflict zones around the world. Of the $95 Billion, over $60 Billion was allocated for Ukraine.
The handout to Ukraine was sold to the American people as a “loan.” However, as The Gateway Pundit reported, the package Johnson announced Wednesday includes terms that will allow the President to cancel 50% of Ukraine’s debt after November 15, 2024, and the remaining 50% after January 1, 2024. It’s no wonder Joe Biden came out “strongly” in support of the package, urging the House and Senate to pass it.
This means after President Trump wins the 2024 election, as expected, Joe Biden can cancel 50% of Ukraine’s debt before his term ends in January. However, if Biden and the Democrats pull off another stolen election, they can forgive 100% of Ukraine’s debt a little over one year later. This isn’t a loan. It’s a handout.
Additionally, as The Gateway Pundit reported, Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) revealed that only $44 to $47 billion–40%–of the $113 billion that the United States has handed out to Ukraine is lethal aid.” So what was the other 66 to $69 billion for?” Roy asked on Bannon’s War Room.
Two bills from the latest handout package, the Indo-Pacific Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024 and the Ukraine Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024, both passed the House with more support from Democrats than Republicans. This comes after Republicans under Mike Johnson’s leadership gave up a $1.2 trillion spending bill, also with more support from Democrats than Republicans, and reauthorization for warrantless searches of Americans under FISA Section 702.
All 112 “Nay” votes on a bill to send $60 billion to Ukraine came from Republicans, with101 Republicans voting “AYE” with 210 Democrats. Every single Democrat voted in favor of sending additional taxpayer money to secure a foreign border, more than doubling the number of Republican votes in favor.
Speaker Johnson arrogantly declared himself a “wartime speaker” before announcing the massive foreign aid package to fund multiple countries oceans away — but not the United States. The United States is not even at war with anyone!
In a more recent development, the Pentagon confirmed on Wednesday that the US secretly sent long-range Army Tactical Missile System to Ukraine as part of the $61 billion dollar package passed by Democrats, RINOs, Speaker Johnson and signed by Joe Biden.
Obviously, Americans did not know about these long-range missiles being part of the $61 billion deal. Did Mike Johnson know about this? Did the RINOs? Why did they hide this from American taxpayers? Why would they send these offensive weapons to war-torn Ukraine?
In an X post this past Thursday, Zelenskyy said, “I spoke with @SpeakerJohnsonto express my sincere gratitude for his leadership that ensured true bipartisan support for aid to Ukraine. I specifically highlighted the inclusion of long-range ATACMS systems in the bill, which are greatly needed on the battlefield.”
Steve Bannon on Saturday told Ben Harnwell he is “very disturbed about Johnson,” calling the latest move a “criminal conspiracy.”
Zelenskyy followed up on the money this morning, announcing that "Ukraine and the United States, are currently working on a bilateral security agreement," and they are "working on fixing specific levels of support for this year and for the next ten years."
This comes after Zelenskyy announced that he invited Johnson and Jeffries to visit Ukraine:

Per David Sacks, co-host of the All In podcast, "Zelensky announces that Ukraine is working on a security agreement with the U.S. that will fix levels of support for the next 10 years. The $61 billion was just the beginning. The next two U.S. presidents won’t be able to switch it off."
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene on Sunday responded to the news on X, saying,
Permanent funding for Ukraine is exactly what they want and Mike Johnson will give it to them. Peace is not an option for them because it doesn’t fit the government appropriations war business and economic model, which is vile and disgusting. They’re plan is keep funding the proxy war with Russia in Ukraine and when that doesn’t work, after all the Ukrainian men have been slaughtered, next they will put American troops on the ground. Johnson will do whatever Biden/Schumer want in order to keep the Speaker’s gavel in his hand, but he has completely sold out the Republican voters who gave us the majority. His days as Speaker are numbered.
Permanent funding for Ukraine is exactly what they want and Mike Johnson will give it to them.

Zelenskyy gave the following speech in a video posted Sunday to YouTube by the Office of the President of Ukraine with the title "In June the Path to a Just Peace Can Begin."
Watch below:
Zelensky: I wish you health, fellow Ukrainians!
We are not losing a single day for Ukraine – I have just spoken with Hakeem Jeffries, the leader of the Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives. I thanked him and all the congressmen for their support of our country and personal leadership in advancing a new package of assistance to Ukraine. We are interacting with our partners at all levels to achieve the level of efficiency in assistance that is needed not only to hold our positions, but also to disrupt Russia's war plans. We are still waiting for the supplies promised to Ukraine – we expect exactly the volume and content of supplies that can change the situation on the battlefield in the interests of Ukraine. And it is important that every agreement we have reached is implemented – everything that will yield practical results on the battlefield and boost the morale of everyone on the frontline. In a conversation with Mr. Jeffries, I emphasized the need for Patriot systems, they are needed as soon as possible.
Also, our teams, Ukraine and the United States, are currently working on a bilateral security agreement, and we are already working on a specific text. Our goal is to make this agreement the strongest of all. We are discussing the specific foundations of our security and cooperation. We are also working on fixing specific levels of support for this year and for the next ten years, including armed support, financial, political, and joint arms production. The agreement should be truly exemplary and reflect the strength of American leadership. I am grateful to both our team and the team of the American side for the progress in drafting the agreement.
Next week there will be quite a lot of international communication, both public and non-public. We remember what this year should bring us in the political sense, in particular the result with the European Union. Ukraine has fulfilled all the necessary conditions for the actual start of accession negotiations, and now it is up to the EU side to fulfill its obligations.
We continue preparations for the first inaugural Peace Summit in June, and our team, along with the teams of our key partners, is working to make the Summit truly global. We can say for sure that all continents will be represented – different parts of the world, different views on global development. But all of them share the same recognition that the UN Charter and basic international conventions are binding documents for every country in the world, including a country like Russia, where madness prevails. The world majority must force Russia into peace – and it can do this. It is in June that the path to a just peace can begin.
We are also preparing for the NATO Summit to be held this summer. A strong political signal is needed – the Alliance should not be afraid of its own strength or shy away from its own foundations – every country that shares common values and is willing to actually defend them deserves an invitation to join the Alliance.
And our unwavering gratitude to the warriors – to all the Defense and Security Forces of Ukraine, to each and every one of them at the front, at combat posts, on combat missions. Kharkiv region, Donetsk direction, all the southern directions. I am grateful to every soldier and commander who is doing everything to destroy the occupiers – this is needed the most.
According to the results of the week, the warriors of the 57th and 58th separate motorized infantry brigades, as well as the warriors of the 35th separate marine brigade deserve special gratitude. I would also like to mention our border guards, both those who are fighting on the frontline alongside everyone else, and those who are protecting our border communities and destroying Russian subversive groups. Special gratitude goes to all the servicemen of the Dozor special forces unit of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine. Also, to the warriors of the Revenge brigade – and I would like to thank Staff Sergeant Oleksandr Meteyko, Senior Sergeants Serhiy Nesterenko and Sviatoslav Ihnatiuk for their special results. The Steel Frontier brigade – Staff Sergeant Ivan Koval, Sergeant Vitaliy Mykytenko, and Senior Soldier Yevhen Kolesnik. Well done! Chernihiv and Volyn border guard detachments – Senior Soldiers Mykhailo Danyliuk and Mykhailo Myndiuk, Sergeants Yuriy Romashyn and Mykhailo Sereda, and Senior Sergeant Roman Novyk. Sumy border guard detachment – Soldier Andriy Krut and Staff Sergeant Yuriy Popkov particularly distinguished themselves... I also thank all the soldiers of our Kharkiv detachment, especially Senior Soldiers Denys Shevchenko and Volodymyr Shevtsov, and Major Andriy Kuchynskyi. I am proud of you all, warriors!
I am grateful to everyone who is with Ukraine, who is in Ukraine and for whom Ukraine is the only home on Earth.
Humza Yousaf, the First Minister of Scotland, will resign his position imminently, according to a report from The Times of London.
Yousaf, who leads the far-left, pro-independence Scottish National Party (SNP), had previously pledged to fight on after his government collapsed but has now acknowledged that there is no way forward.
Humza Yousaf is preparing to quit as Scotland’s first minister after coming to the conclusion that his position is no longer tenable. Senior SNP figures have been told the nationalist leader decided over the weekend that there is no way for him to survive this week’s vote of no confidence and he may stand down on Monday.
It comes as Yousaf struggles to put together a coalition of MSPs that would keep him in office after he sacked the Scottish Greens from government. A close friend said: “Humza knows what’s best for the country and the party. He is first party activist and a party man, and that’s why he knows it’s time for someone else.”
A British Pakistani and practising Muslim, Yousaf notoriously gave a speech back in 2020 at the height of the Black Lives Matter riots where he complained about the number of white people in positions of power.
Just last month, he approved legislation implementing new “hate speech” laws intended to crack down on free speech and conservative opposition to progressive ideology. The move later backfired when thousands of people flooded the hate crime tip lines with reports of his own anti-white speech.
Having voted to remain part of the United Kingdom in 2014, Scotland remains subject to the British parliament. However, its government maintains autonomy on various policy issues ranging from healthcare to education as part of a devolution agreement signed by former Prime Minister David Cameron.
The Arizona Republican Party is now the second state Republican Party to pass a ‘Ban the Jab’ resolution and declare COVID-19 injections biological and technological weapons.
Patriot, Dan Schultz, of PrecinctStrategy.com submitted the ‘Ban the Jab’ resolution that the Republican Party of Arizona. The Arizona GOP voted today and passed the resolution with approximately 96% of the vote.
The resolution declares the COVID-19 injections to be biological and technological weapons and calls on the Governor to prohibit their distribution and the Attorney General to confiscate the vials and conduct a forensic analysis of their contents.
In addition to being an attorney, Dan Schultz is a former West Point graduate and former U.S. Army counterintelligence and human intelligence officer.
Mr. Schultz advocates the Precinct Strategy, which seeks to wrestle control of the Republican Party back to the people. Previously, Dan Schultz submitted the ‘Ban the Jab’ resolution to the Maricopa County GOP.
On Saturday January 13th, the Maricopa County GOP passed the resolution with 87.4% of the vote! A total 1494 votes were cast, 1306 in favor, 188 against. Maricopa County is the largest Republican County in the nation.
The first ‘Ban the Jab’ resolution was authored by psychotherapist, Dr. Joseph Sansone, in February of 2023.
To date, approximately 10 Florida Republican County Parties have passed ‘Ban the Jab’ resolutions declaring Covid 19 injections biological and technological weapons, also calling on the Governor to prohibit their distribution and the Attorney General to confiscate the vials and conduct a forensic analysis.
Previously, the Arizona GOP was scheduled to vote on the resolution on January 27th, however, other business and debates caused delays to prevent getting to the vote.
Attorney Dan Schultz was persistent and reintroduced the resolution that was approved by the state’s resolution committee by a vote of 13-0.
Arizona is considered an important state in politics and passage of this resolution will help build support for prohibiting biological warfare against Americans and civilian populations at large.
The text of the resolution submitted by Dan Schultz follows:
Arizona ‘Ban the Jab’ Resolution:
Whereas:
Strong and credible evidence shows Covid 19 and Covid 19 injections are biological and technological weapons, and Pfizer’s clinical data revealed 1,223 deaths, 42,000 adverse cases, 158,000 adverse incidents, and approximately 1,000 side effects, and an enormous number of people have died and or have been permanently disabled after having been injected by the Covid 19 injections, and strong and credible evidence from Sweden exists that Covid mRNA shots alter human DNA, and government agencies, media, and tech companies, and other corporations have committed enormous fraud by claiming Covid injections are safe and effective, and The Florida Department of Health has called for a halt to the mRNA injections, and continued experimentation on humans and denial of informed consent are violations of the Nuremberg Code and therefore constitute crimes against humanity,
Resolved:
On behalf of the preservation of the human race, the 2024 Arizona Republican Party Presidential Nominating Convention Delegates call upon Governor Hobbs and the state legislature to prohibit the sale and distribution of Covid injections and all mRNA injections in Arizona, and for the Arizona Attorney General to immediately seize all Covid injections and mRNA injections in Arizona and perform a forensic analysis on these so-called “vaccines.”
An Arkansas woman has pleaded guilty to charges related to stealing body parts from corpses and listing them for sale on Facebook.
Candace Chapman Scott, 37, was working at a mortuary when she stole at least 24 boxes of human body parts from medical school cadavers.
On Thursday, Scott pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit mail fraud and one count of interstate transportation of stolen property.
The charges stemmed from Scott selling 24 boxes of human remains to Jeremy Pauley of Pennsylvania for $11,000. The body parts included fetuses, brains, hearts, lungs, genitalia, large pieces of skin, and more.
Scott reportedly sold Pauley the fetus at a discount, saying, “he’s not in great shape.”
According to a report from The Mirror, Pauley has “previously pleaded guilty to charges related to the theft and sale of body parts from both the Arkansas mortuary and Harvard Medical School.”
The report continues:
The connection between Scott and Pauley was reportedly established through a Facebook group focused on “oddities.” Scott was employed at Arkansas Central Mortuary Services, where her responsibilities included transporting, cremating, and embalming remains.
Prosecutors allege that she exploited her position to facilitate the illegal transactions. The University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences in Little Rock has confirmed that the medical school sent cadaver remains to the mortuary, intended for student examination.
According to prosecutors, Scott approached Pauley in October 2021 and began offering to sell him remains from the medical school that the mortuary was supposed to cremate and return. The indictment alleges Scott wrote to Pauley in her first Facebook message: “Just out of curiosity, would you know anyone in the market for a fully in tact, embalmed brain?”
Scott is facing up to 10 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000 for transporting stolen property and up to 20 years and a fine for the mail fraud charge, according to the report.

The Biden regime is all smoke and mirrors.
OnlyFans content creator Farha Khalidi has made waves after claiming on a podcast that she created “political propaganda” ads for the Biden regime on TikTok.
During the interview with political science researcher Richard Hanania on his podcast, Khalidi opened up about her entry into the world of online revenue through TikTok and OnlyFans.
“So you were in school — you were still in college when you started as a TikTok person, right? Or did you start OnlyFans when you were in school, too?” Hanania asked.
“No, I started TikTok, like, the spring semester of my senior year and I was like, ‘F—k, I finally have to start applying for law school,’ and then, like, you know, female privilege: ‘life so easy for a woman.’ Obviously, I lucked out. No, I’m just kidding.”
“[But] I lucked out and then TikTok was basically full-time for me. Like, I was taking ads by the time I graduated college from, like, the Biden administration, Planned Parenthood and, like, dating apps and stuff. So it was, like, fully financially sustaining me,” Khalidi said.
When Hanania pressed Khalidi about her claim of making money from the Biden regime, she openly admitted to creating “political propaganda” content.
“Yeah, I was doing full-on political propaganda,” Khalidi stated during the podcast.
Khalidi recounted being approached to promote then-Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, highlighting her identity as a “brown person” following her nomination to the high court by Biden.
“Yeah, honestly. The funny thing is they’re, like, ‘Do not disclose this as an ad’ because they [were], like, ‘Technically, it’s not a product, so you don’t have to disclose it’s an ad.’ Because I think they just wanted, like, some edgy girl of color to just tell people — like when they nominated Ketanji Brown Jackson, they’re, like, ‘Can you say ‘as a person of color,’ you know, that you feel ‘reflected?’”
“It’s, like, a White woman emailing this and she’s giving me this script. And I’m, like, ‘No,’ and she’s like, ‘Please,’ and I’m like, ‘No.’ I’ll talk about the news of it, but I’m not gonna be like — I’m not gonna have a White person tell me to be, like, ‘This is how I feel as a person of color.’ It’s just so — I think that black-pilled me slightly on political propaganda,” she added.
Despite these claims, Khalidi later clarified that a third-party media company was the conduit through which the Biden administration operated.
It’s ironic that a recipient of 81 million votes has to pay people for support.

How many influencers did the Biden administration pay to push their propaganda?
TikTok influencer and de facto Biden spokesperson Harry Sisson was also paid to promote the administration’s messaging.
According to recently uncovered Federal Election Commission data, the Democratic National Committee / DNC Services Corp made payments totalling $210,000 to a social media talent management agency called Palette Media.
Palette Media manages over 60 social media influencers across various platforms including many of the young “activists” with the liberal organization “genzforchange.” This agency also represents two of the largest democratic social media content creators on tiktok, Harry Sisson and Chris Mowrey.
Democrat Senator Tim Kaine was on NBCs “Meet the Press” with moderator Kristen Welker on Sunday to discuss the chaos on college campuses.
“He (Speaker Mike Johnson) said that the National Guard should be called in. Is that something you would support?” Welker asked Senator Kaine.
“I think that would be a very, very bad idea. I think there are other ways, using campus security, but also again, offering students more opportunity to have dialogue that is civil and constructive where people hear one another,” Kaine said.

Although civility is always preferrable, the agitators on many of these college campuses pose a threat to people’s safety in addition to interrupting the learning process.

“Do you think the Biden administration, the President has a role to play in this moment in addressing what we are seeing on these college campuses,” Welker asked.
“People have a right to protest and make their views known and almost you know overwhelming percentages of people do that peacefully. But there are those that intimidate and harass others,” Kaine continued.
“Hold up some examples of colleges in the country and I think there are a number of them, where discussions about difficult topics, like Israel and Gaza are happening but happening in a way that really can be a model where people can express their points of view,” Kaine said regarding Biden administration’s role.

Update: Matthew Lathers was fatally shot by an officer.
Three Kenner, Louisiana police officers were shot in a standoff with a suspect who shot two other people on Sunday.
The wounded officers were taken to a hospital. They are in stable condition.
The two victims are in critical condition.
According to NOLA.com, officers got into a standoff with 31-year-old Matthew Lathers.
Lathers was wanted for attempted murder and armed robbery. He critically injured a man in a shooting on Tuesday in Kenner. According to WVUE, Lathers has a long rap sheet and was convicted of armed robbery back in 2012.
Police had been searching for Lathers since Tuesday after he shot a 56-year-old man. According to NOLA, police received a call around 9:45 am on Sunday where they had a standoff with Lathers.
The SWAT team was on the scene at the home on Farm Avenue and Kenner Avenue. Neighbors heard flashbangs and several exchanges of gunfire.
Update: Lathers was fatally shot by a Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office Deputy according to ABC News.
Three Louisiana police officers were wounded by gunfire Sunday in a standoff with a man suspected of shooting three other people in the past week, authorities said.
The injured officers were taken to a hospital after being shot Sunday morning at a home in Kenner, about 15 miles (24 kilometers) west of New Orleans, Kenner Police Chief Keith Conley said. Their conditions were not immediately known.
SWAT team officers were still outside the home Sunday afternoon, The Times-Picayune/The New Orleans Advocate reported. No arrests had been announced.
Joe Biden is officially the least popular president in 70 years, with an approval rating of just 38.7 percent, according to a Gallup Poll released Friday.
No first-term president in the poll’s history has been reelected with an approval rating this low.
“With about six months remaining before Election Day, Biden stands in a weaker position than any prior incumbent,” the pollsters determined.
Biden’s challenger for the White House, former President Donald Trump, had a 46.8 percent approval rating at the same point in his presidency.
Approval ratings at this point in their presidencies for the last 70 years were as follows:
Dwight D. Eisenhower (1956): 73.2%
Ronald Reagan (1984): 54.5%
Richard Nixon (1972): 53.7%
Bill Clinton (1996): 53.0%
George W. Bush (2004): 51.0%
Jimmy Carter (1980): 47.7%
Donald Trump (2020): 46.8%
Barack Obama (2012): 45.9%
George H.W. Bush (1992): 41.8%
Joe Biden (2024): 38.7%
Even Nixon and Carter had higher ratings than Biden, with 53.7% and 47.7%, respectively, and Eisenhower had the highest rating at 72.3%, according to the poll.
The results of Gallup’s presidential approval polls, which the organization has compiled since the presidency of Dwight D. Eisenhower began in 1952, have been strongly predictive of re-election success.
Historically, every incumbent in the past seven decades with an approval rating above 50% has won a second term. Only Barack Obama bucked the trend: his 2012 victory came despite a middling 46% approval six months ahead of that year’s general election.
No first-term president in Gallup’s history has returned to the White House with approval numbers as low as Biden’s — whose results this quarter ranked among the worst of the post-World War II era, in the bottom 12% of all presidential quarters going back to 1945.
Gallup surveyed 1,001 Americans from April 1 to April 22. The results have a 4-point margin of error.
As the White House Correspondents’ dinner featured another unfunny comedy act, a disastrous speech by the so-called leader of the free world, and that so-called leader enjoying his dinner like an Alzheimer’s patient at the nursing home, take a moment to remember last year’s annual event, Joe Biden laughed hysterically at Americans struggling to afford everyday goods.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Saturday Night Live star Colin Jost was the designated “comedian” for the White House Correspondent’s Association dinner on Saturday. After “roasting” Trump and Biden with a series of tame and not-particularly-funny quips, Jost launched into an emotional tirade about his late grandfather, he began slobbering over Biden’s supposed “decency.”
Biden later slurred as he openly joked about spearheading prosecutions against his main political opponent Donald Trump. Such decency!
In 2022, former Daily Show host Trevor Noah hosted a similarly pathetic comedy performance, and Biden, during his speech that year, called President Trump “a horrible plague.”
Noah: I think ever since you’ve come into office, things are really looking up. Gas is up, rent is up, food is up, everything.
The DC elites, journalists, and Joe Biden roared at the not-particularly-funny joke while Americans suffered Bidenflation under Bidenomics.
It was true that everything was — and still is — going up under Joe Biden, but one thing continues going downhill fast: Biden’s mental health.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Joe Biden Saturday evening stayed up past his bedtime to deliver remarks at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner with Hollywood elitists.
Biden struggled to eat his food. He isn’t used to eating solid food and feeding himself. Saturday night’s dinner was different than his usual pureed food spoon-fed to him.
He appeared confused as he pushed the salad around on his plate and got distracted by a dinner roll. Biden struggled to break the bread roll and barely got his fork to his mouth.
He also smeared Trump and repeated the debunked “bloodbath” hoax.
President Trump later savaged Joe Biden in a Truth Social post over the disastrous speech:
A Kenyan immigrant who is set to be the new mayor of Derry City, in Northern Ireland previously called Irish patriots who oppose mass immigration “terrorists.”
SDLP councillor Lilian Seenoi-Barr, an outspoken socialist, was nominated to be Derry City’s next mayor.
A selection convention scheduled for Monday evening was canceled after Lilian Seenoi-Barr was nominated for mayor. The party bypassed a vote and went straight to nominate the new mayor.
Lilian Seenoi-Barr has contempt for Irish citizens who oppose mass immigration from Africa and the Middle East.
WATCH:
I want everyone to meet the new mayor of Derry that was nominated by Sinn Fein.
She believes anyone opposing mass immigration into Ireland is part of a “organised terrorist group”
Derry and Strabane is set to make history by having the North’s first black mayor, Derry Now can reveal.
Derry Now understands that SDLP councillor Lilian Seenoi-Barr has gained the party’s nomination to replace current incumbent Patricia Logue as the city and district’s in June.
Cllr Seenoi-Barr was first co-opted to Derry and Strabane District Council in 2021. She was subsequently elected in the 2023 local elections.
Derry Now understands that a selection convention was due to take place on Monday evening. However the meeting has since been cancelled as the party’s management committee has opted to nominate Cllr Seenoi-Barr for mayor instead of taking it to a vote among the party’s 300 members.
Two other candidates were in the running to become the SDLP’s pick for mayor, they were councillors Shauna Cusack and Jason Barr.
This is not the first time Seenoi-Barr made the headlines for calling Irish natives terrorists.
In November, five people, including children, were stabbed near a school in Dublin, Ireland, by a deranged madman.
Three children and two adults were taken to a nearby hospital with stab wounds. One child was severely injured.
It was later discovered a migrant from Algeria was behind the vicious knife attack on children.
Irish citizens rioted in the streets after this latest horrific attack by an immigrant.
Irish Socialist Councillor Lillian Seenoi-Barr spoke to the BBC following the brutal stabbing attack.
Councillor Lillian Seenoi-Barr: I’ve been speaking to so many leaders since Friday. In fact, I haven’t had good sleep because we’ve just been discussing the same issues. People are very fearful. They are terrified of even thinking they will walk on the street. Not just in Dublin, across Ireland right now. They know that there’s a voice note circulating on social media calling for people to harm them, killing every immigrant in this country. It is very unsettling. Everyone is living on edge right now and we need to do something about it. We cannot continue ignoring that this is a small minority of far right. It is an organized terrorist group of people who want to harm immigrants in this country and we have to take action now! We can’t keep on calling them a small, dangerous group of people because it is an organized group of people who are radicalizing young people and encouraging them to go and harm others who are just living peacefully, who wants to live a peaceful life in this country.
She said nothing about the children being stabbed. Not one word.
It appears the long-running feud between America’s top two Republicans has thawed.
As The Washington Post reported President Donald Trump and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis met privately for several hours Sunday morning in Miami. Trump and DeSantis had not spoken since the end of the Republican primary, a bitter contest in which both men launched biting attacks at each other, which were often personal.
As Gateway Pundit readers know, DeSantis endorsed Trump the day he left the race in January.
Allies of both men brokered the meeting in hopes of a potential peace between the two. According to the Post, the meeting was the brainchild of prominent Florida real estate broker Steve Witkoff, an ally of both Trump and DeSantis.
Witkoff contacted Trump and asked him to meet with the Florida governor.
Both Trump and DeSantis spoke on friendly terms, according to the Post’s sources, and DeSantis agreed to help the 45th President. Trump’s team is hopeful such assistance will include the Florida governor helping raise money for the campaign, which is lagging behind Biden in fundraising.
The meeting will also produce renewed speculation that Trump is looking at tapping DeSantis as his running mate. Trump previously suggested that the Florida governor was on the list of people he was considering.
This seems like a long shot considering a good number of Trump’s staff still despise Ron DeSantis. After initial calm, DeSantis stirred up a hornet’s nest again in February when he slammed Trump’s campaign team in a private call with his supporters.
“I think he’s got people in his inner circle who were part of our orbit years ago that we fired, and I think some of that is they just have an ax to grind,” DeSantis said.
Chris LaCivita, a top aide to Trump, responded by calling DeSantis a “sad little man.”
But stranger things have happened. Back in 1960, John F. Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson saw the political benefits of joining forces despite loathing each other. This partnership proved decisive in Kennedy’s controversial win over Richard Nixon in the 1960 Presidential election.
Regardless of who Trump picks as VP, helping him out is also in DeSantis’s interest because the Florda governor is widely expected to seek the 2028 GOP nomination for President in what will be a wide-open field. Avoiding Trump’s bad side is crucial because no politician has proven to be a better assassin in primaries than the Donald.
Los Angeles Lakers Star LeBron James has once again allowed his emotions to get the best of him on the court.
During the Lakers’ latest playoff game against the Denver Nuggets, LeBron James exploded at his head coach, Darvin Ham, for refusing to challenge a referee’s call.
In the fourth quarter, while the Lakers were up by 15, James became irate when his head coach, Darvin Ham, did not challenge a ref’s call that claimed Lebron knocked the ball out of the game.
After coach Ham refused to challenge the call, LeBron jumped up and down and screamed at his head coach and bench players.
WATCH:
LeBron James was IRATE that Darvin Ham didn’t challenge this out of bounds call
The Los Angeles Lakers’ Game 4 win over the Denver Nuggets on Saturday night wasn’t without drama.
Usually, that drama takes the form of the Lakers blowing a double-digit lead as they have for the last three consecutive series matchups against the Nuggets. Yet Game 4 was different, not only because the Lakers held onto their lead for the win, but because Los Angeles star LeBron James had one of his biggest on-court blowups of the year.
Early in the fourth quarter with the Lakers up 15, James was visibly outraged after the Lakers chose not to challenge an out-of-bounds call. The officials ruled that James touched the ball last, though slow-motion replays revealed that the ball indeed went off of Nuggets’ Kentavious Caldwell-Pope.
James unsuccessfully pleaded with his coaches to challenge the call and was seen furiously shouting at the Lakers bench and even stomping on the court.
The Lakers ended up defeating the Denver Nuggets 119 to 118.
The Nuggets still lead the series 3 to 1.
This isn’t the first time in the series that LeBron has let his temper flare.
On Monday night, James abruptly left a press conference after voicing his frustrations about the refs calling the playoff game.
Actor Drew Barrymore (left) and Kamala Harris (right)
Kamala Harris, in an interview about her experience in the White House over the last three years with actor Drew Barrymore, where she opened up on her infamous cackle and noted that “apparently, some people love to talk about the way I laugh.”
“Oh, yes. I love your laugh!” cried Barrymore in a weird tone.
Harris continued, “I think it’s really important for us to remind each other and our younger ones, don’t be confined to other people’s perception about what this looks like and how you should act in order to be, right?” Because it doesn’t matter how a Vice President of the United States acts, right?
Vice President Harris opened up about criticism over her laugh in an upcoming interview.
Harris, in an interview with “The Drew Barrymore Show” that will air Monday, acknowledged that people often like to make fun of public figures when they trip or fall, and then mentioned the talk about how she laughs.
“You were asking me earlier about what it means to be, like, the first woman. And, you know, it’s funny, because people still got to get used to this, right?” Harris said in the clip, obtained by Mediaite.
“Let me tell you something,” Harris told host Drew Barrymore. “I have my mother’s laugh. And I grew up around a bunch of women in particular who laugh from the belly.”
It is unclear if they discussed Joe Biden’s memory lapses and how it is comparable to Barrymore’s ’50 First Dates’ film.
Watch below:
Harris: You were asking me earlier about what it means to be like the first woman. And, you know, it’s funny because people still gotta get used to this, right?. My staff, for example, sometimes they’ll show me some things that just amuse me. Like Apparently, some people love to talk about the way I laugh
Barrymore: Oh, yes. I love your laugh!
Harris: Well, let me just tell you something I have my mother’s laugh, and I grew up around a bunch of women in particular who laugh from the belly. They laughed [emphasis]. They would sit around the kitchen, drinking their coffee, telling big stories with big laughs. You know im never gonna be, hehehe, That’s just I’m not that person! And I think it’s really important for us to remind each other and our younger ones, don’t be confined to other people’s perception about what this looks like and how you should act in order to be, right? It’s really important. It’s important
Barrymore: I love your laugh, and I love that message!
The 45th President’s son discussed a few topics which included Biden’s inability to draw a crowd.
“So with all the power of Air Force One and with all the power of the Executive Branch, Biden can’t have anybody show up, yet my father is drawing these massive crowds,” Eric Trump said.
He also discussed the chaos in the US with protests from extremist groups.
“We’ve become an embarrassment to the entire world. We’re getting ripped off. Wars are breaking out all over the place, protests are happening. You have people in this country who are chanting ‘death to America’, ‘death to America’ in the United States of America,” Eric Trump continued.
Eric Trump also discussed President Trump’s tireless effort to campaign while also having to be in court.
“He will be going to what, Michigan and Wisconsin on the one day off?” Maria Bartiromo asked.
“That’s right he’s going all over the place and his stamina Maria, I’ve never seen anything like it in my life, I’ve just never seen it. He’ll be in trial all day long relentlessly being attacked by a corrupt judge, you know who’s literally family is apparently profiting off of this whole thing. Only to step out and go do events at bodegas, and wake up and speak to union workers, and go to Michigan and go to Pennsylvania, and go to Ohio and go to all the other swing states. The guy is really a remarkable human being,” Eric Trump continued.
President Trump savaged Joe Biden over his disastrous White House Correspondents’ Dinner speech.
“The White House Correspondents’ Dinner was really bad. Colin Jost BOMBED, and Crooked Joe was an absolute disaster! Doesn’t get much worse than this!” Trump said on Truth Social.

Tony Navarrete confronted by January 6 defendant Micajah Jackson and citizen journalist Kyle Clifton while walking out of court in October 2023
Former Democratic State Senator Tony Navarrete was sentenced on Friday to one year in prison after being charged with seven felony counts involving sexual misconduct with his two young nephews.
35-year-old Navarette, a “rising star” in the Arizona Democrat party, was arrested and charged with a felony described as “knowingly engaging in intercourse or oral sex with a minor.”
Tony Navarrete (left) with Vice President Kamala Harris (right)
Navarette also has ties to State Rep. Athena Salman and Sen. Juan Mendez, Democrat colleagues who helped him draft a bill requiring all Arizona schools to teach sexual education instruction starting in Kindergarten. The failed attempt by Democrats would require schools to begin sexual education instruction with students as young as four years old. Navarrete’s friend and Illegitimate Governor, Katie Hobbs, also sponsored similar legislationwhile serving in the Arizona Senate.
More recently, in 2023, Hobbs vetoed a bill that would make it illegal to film or facilitate sexually explicit acts in government buildings and classrooms months after a teacher in Arizona was fired for shooting a porno in her classroom and posting it to OnlyFans.
Navarrete reportedly, in a recorded phone call monitored by police, “acknowledged touching the victim’s penis and performing oral sex on the youth multiple times over several years,” according to Maricopa County Superior Court documents. However, Mitchell’s office failed to convict Navarrete after a mistrial despite the recorded admission of guilt. A retrial has been ordered for February 12, and Navarrete faces seven counts involving pedophilia.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, RINO Maricopa County Attorney Rachel Mitchell’s office failed to convict Navarrete after a mistrial despite a recorded admission of guilt. A retrial was ordered for February 12, 2024.
However, his attorneys announced in court on Friday that they intend to appeal the conviction.
During sentencing, a Maricopa County Superior Court judge ordered one year in prison followed by 10 years of supervised release for his single count of child sex crime. He is also now required to register as a sex offender.
Earlier this year, a jury deemed Navarrete not guilty on one count of molestation of a child and sexual conduct with a minor but declared Navarrete guilty on a separate charge of sexual conduct with a minor.
A mistrial was declared in Oct. 2023, when jurors at the time were split on a decision about the allegations against Navarrete. The former Democratic politician was arrested in 2019 and indicted in 2021 on seven child sex crime charges.
Court documents at the time stated Navarrete sexually touched the victim multiple times over a few years. Navarrete reportedly apologized to the victim and regretted his actions in a phone call recorded by police.
Judge Aileen Cannon unsealed an unredacted version of the FBI’s affidavit used to obtain a Mar-a-Lago search warrant.
In August 2022 the Biden Justice Department released a highly redacted Trump raid affidavit.
Media organizations asked to unseal the affidavit in support of the search warrant.
Only a redacted version was previously unsealed.
Last year Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart approved new aspects of the Trump Mar-a-Lago search warrant to be unsealed, however “the government agreed that a redacted version of the Response could be unsealed without compromising legitimate governmental interests,” Bruce Reinhart wrote in his order on motion to unseal.
The newly unredacted documents reveal how the Biden Regime shifted the investigation from classified documents to an Espionage Act case.
In the unredacted version, the unidentified FBI Special Agent says he received training at Quantico specific to “counterintelligence and espionage investigations.”
Jack Smith indicted Trump on 37 federal counts in Miami last June for lawfully storing presidential records at his Mar-a-Lago estate which Secret Service agents protected.
Trump was charged with 31 counts under the Espionage Act of willful retention of national defense information and 6 other process crimes stemming from his conversations with his lawyer.
Happy Unredaction Sunday!
Unsealed filings in classified docs include FBI affidavit to get search warrant to raid Mar-a-Lago. (Left is most recent publicly available affidavit that I’m aware of)
This is how DOJ shifted investigation from classified docs to Espionage Act case: pic.twitter.com/ecOpt15Zjq
However, we now know that at least two pallets of boxes were sent to Virginia before they ended up at Mar-a-Lago.
These were the boxes that ended up having documents with “classified markings” on them. The boxes were dumped outside of DC in Virginia and then ended up at Mar-a-Lago.
This was a total setup.
According to the unredacted affidavit, the FBI wanted the dimensions of Melania’s personal suite at Mar-a-Lago in the ‘Owner’s Quarters.’
Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) and US Senate Candidate Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) ride camels on trip to Qatar paid for by US-Qatar Business Council
On Sunday, news broke that Joe Biden’s brother, Jim Biden, used his ties to the former Vice President to do business with terrorist-supporting regime Qatar and foreign investors to finance Americore Health LLC.
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, the House Oversight Committee’s investigation into the Biden family’s corruption uncovered a $200,000 direct payment to Joe Biden that they claimed was a “loan repayment.” However, there were no IRS records or loan documents to prove it.
In 2018, Jim Biden received $600,000 in ‘loans’ from Americore Health LLC, a failing/bankrupt rural hospital operator. According to bankruptcy documents, Jim Biden received the loans “based upon representations that his last name Biden could open doors and that he could obtain a large investment from the Middle East based on his political connections.”
On March 1, 2018, Americore Health LLC wired a $200,000 payment to Jim and Sara Biden’s personal bank account. On that very same day, Jim Biden then wrote a $200,000 check to Joe Biden, AKA, “The Big Guy.”
Jim Biden wrote the check to Joe Biden as a so-called “loan repayment.” Does Joe Biden have documents proving he lent his brother such a large sum of money? “What were the terms?” Comer asked.
Prior to this, Biden was reportedly embarking on raising money for Americore while seeking "investment funding" from sources in the Middle East.
Around the time, Qatar was reportedly cut off and financially blockaded by neighboring countries, led by Saudi Arabia, citing the country's support for terrorism. Per Politico, "In response, the country’s rulers began showering well-connected Westerners with gifts and financial benefits, sometimes in the form of investment funding" to strengthen ties in the United States and Europe.
The Gateway Pundit reported that Democrat Senator Bob Menendez of New Jersey and his wife were indicted on charges of bribery and corruption after developments that he was also a beneficiary of Qatar's efforts to expand their influence in the US.
Similarly, it was discovered that Matthew Graves, the lawless Biden-appointed US Attorney for the District of Columbia, represented terrorist-supporting regime Qatar and foreign banks financing terrorists.
Biden's family, the Democrats, and Biden's thugs are all in bed with foreign adversaries.
Presentations to potential investors for Americore described Jim Biden as the “Brother and Campaign Finance Chair of former Vice President Joe Biden.” Dubai is another reported source of money handled by Biden and his partners.
New details about Jim Biden’s foreign fundraising efforts are spilling out in a Kentucky bankruptcy court, where recent testimony indicates that President Joe Biden’s brother partnered with Qatari government officials in his quest to find money for U.S. health care ventures.
The sworn testimony by fund manager Michael Lewitt, a former business partner of Jim Biden’s, attests that two companies that facilitated the efforts were part-owned by “members of the Qatari government.”
Public records and emails obtained by POLITICO offer a window on fundraising efforts in which Jim Biden invoked his ties to older brother and sought workarounds to restrictions on international money movements. Transactions related to the efforts are also at the heart of a recently-settled fraud case brought by the SEC and are being scrutinized as part of a federal criminal investigation in South Florida.
Jim Biden suggested to congressional investigators in February that his fundraising efforts stalled for lack of viable projects to back. But the previously unreported testimony by fund manager Michael Lewitt about the ownership of the two companies — the Platinum Group USA and Obermeyer Engineering Consulting — indicates that Jim Biden forged closer ties to Qatar’s government than previously understood.
Cherie Currie, former lead vocalist of the iconic 1970s rock band The Runaways, has delivered a vehement condemnation of the Democratic Party and former President Barack Obama.
The former rock vocalist took to her social media to vent her frustrations, from economic issues to foreign policy, and even accused the party of fostering racial division.
“It used to be punk, R&R to vote Democrat. I fell for it,” Currie wrote on X.
“But when your party demands you live in fear, squalor, beyond your means by just buying groceries, gasoline, disrespecting our veterans, our police, our elderly, supporting criminals, chaos, riots, Hamas, failing Israel, demeaning us at every turn! Hurting our children! Wasting our money. Ineptitude with every policy! Lies and more lies… NO MORE! The Democrat Party can kiss my ass. They don’t give a damn. That’s true. Voting Dem used to be cool. But now, it just makes you a fool,” she added.

Currie’s fiery tirade didn’t stop there. She went on to criticize the party’s methods and messaging: “And ohhh are they the master of disguise! They lie and lie! They’ll take it up the rear for a single vote! Despicable sub humans.”
She continued by targeting Barack Obama specifically, questioning his leadership and accusing him of worsening racial tensions in the United States.
“Obama LIED. He was a terrible president, and I VOTED FOR HIM! But only once. Never in my wildest dreams did I think that man could create racism and devolve us as a nation. He did that. He’s a liar. A mistake! We are in this racist hellhole thanks to him!”
One user responded to her post, highlighting a shift in political perspectives: “The tables turned. What the Democratic Party is today, 80’s democrats would have condemned. Trump had much to do with identifying the crooks, or ‘The Swamp.’ That inflamed the liars. What a mess! Lol”
To which Currie replied, “A mess is an understatement at this point! But I’m with ya!!”
Alan Dershowitz: George Soros is funding the violent anti-Isreal protests at US campuses.
Law Professor and author Alan Dershowitz joined Maria Bartiromo on Sunday Morning Futures this morning.
Professor Dershowitz blamed George Soros and the Rockefeller brothers for funding the unprecedented, radical anti-Semitic protests on college campuses across the country.
Maria Bartiromo: What are the groups, funding the chaos? Many of these people are showing up with the same tent, same outfits. Someone’s funding it. I want to know who you think is behind it? You just heard Carlos Jimenez talking about the Chinese Communist Party, which oftentimes the CCP jumps on our political conversations and tries to create discord in America.
Alan Dershowitz: There’s no question about that, and Russia does, too. There’s no question that they’re organizations funded by George Soros and the Rockefeller Brothers. Take, for example, an organization called Jewish Voice for Peace. It has been behind many of these demonstrations. They’re not Jewish, and they don’t want peace. It’s a fake organization. It’s an old-line group of communists and anarchists that want to overthrow the United States government. These are people who support Iran. These are people who support China. These are people who support America’s enemies. They are funding much of this, as well as some Arab countries that are funding some of this.
But these organizations are funded by George Soros and other organizations that help fund these academic and turn these useful idiots into protesters and eventually into terrorists. That’s what terrifies me because I know I saw it. What happened to Kathy Boudin? She became a murderer. Then she was released from prison. Guess what happened to her? She was hired to teach students at Columbia University. She probably taught some of these people who are now demonstrating against America, down with America, death to America. Cathy Boudin and others who were terrorists, who stole from the protesters, became terrorists, then became teachers of future protesters.
This is a much deeper problem than what’s going on at Columbia University.
It’s true. George Soros funds the radical leftist group Jewish Voice for Peace that is promoting the Jew hatred on the American streets.
And to think – It was not that long ago that if you said anything negative about George Soros you were labeled an “anti-Semite” by the mainstream media!
— “These sheets feel so soft and smooth when you slide into bed! They start off cool- which I love since I bought these for my camper bed! They do warm up to cozy but not hot during the night which I really love on cold fall nights.”
— “These sheets are the nicest I’ve ever owned. They are so soft and comfortable and fit my large extra mattress with a foam topper perfectly”
— “I purchased 2 sets of Giza dream sheets. I’m sold! The sheets are so comfortable & I love how they feel. So much I’m going to purchase 2 more sets. Another good thing the fitted sheet stays tucked under the mattress. Deep pockets. I promise you will love these sheets!!!”
“He was gonna get his laptop fixed, but Hunter Got High…”
Rapper Afroman released a new record on Friday making fun of Hunter Biden for his drug usage, scandalous laptop, d*ck pics, prostitutes, and foreign business dealings with China and Ukraine.
Baste Records, which bills itself as “the counter culture to cancel culture,” produced the new song. The group has previously produced conservative-leaning music with Chad Prather, Five Times August, Hi-Rez, and Rachel Holt.
Matt Azrieli, founder of Baste Records, told The Gateway Pundit, “Great fun to work with Afroman and his excellent team! Liberal hypocrisy has been ripping apart American society since LBJ’s “Great Society” initiatives. America is the greatest country on earth BECAUSE we endeavor to treat all as equals under the law. No exceptions!”
Afroman reprised his 2000 hit song, “Because I Got High,” with a new version making fun of Hunter Biden.
Baste Records posted on X on Friday about Afroman’s new song, “Hunter Got High,”sharing a link to the full video on YouTube.
Beyond the Hunter Biden laptop, Afroman’s new song also takes jabs at alleged influence peddling by the Biden family, as well the Secret Service confirming that cocaine was found at the White House last summer and subsequently closing that probe without naming a culprit.
Afroman also mocks Hunter Biden’s art career, which has come under fire by House Republicans raising conflict of interest concerns between wealthy buyers and the White House.
The song also references Biden’s scandal at the White House, where cocaine was found in the West Wing. This left many speculating that it was Hunter’s bag of blow. However, the Secret Service apparently could not identify a suspect.
“The White House got shut down, we all know why… Hunter got High, Hunter got High, Hunter got High,” sings Afroman.
Afroman also caught some negative attention in a hit piece from Consequence of Sound, who opined that Hunter Biden’s hilarious scandals are “not only unfunny, but somehow manage to make a catchy tune no longer catchy.” They further attack the song saying it’s “hollow, and reeks of the same stiffness that makes nearly all conservative humor unbearable.”
Released via Baste Records (a “conservative music company” making its “first venture into political satire” with the single), “Hunter Got High” is, to be frank, lame. Selling itself as letting “everyone know that even Afroman is fed up with the way the Democrats are running the country,” it sees Afroman switch out the lyrics to his 2001 stoner masterpiece with tired references to the younger Biden’s many scandals and conspiracies, which are not only unfunny, but somehow manage to make a catchy tune no longer catchy.
“He was gonna get his laptop fixed, but Hunter got high/ He wasn’t gonna show all those dick pics, but then he got high,” the song starts, before packing more lazy, overdone jabs into a very long-feeling four minutes. The only fun part of the whole track, honestly, are the final lines, where Afroman briefly references his own recent drama with law enforcement.
“Hunter Got High,” though, is just hollow, and reeks of the same stiffness that makes nearly all conservative humor unbearable. Even if Afroman has complaints about the Biden administration — and surely there are few Americans with none — trying to superimpose a Hunter Biden-themed right-wing anthem onto a 20-year-old, already-waning-in-relevancy song feels out of touch at best and like a spineless attempt to grift some cash off anti-human political forces at worst. (And if you thought the track is bad, just wait until you get a look at its companion music video.)
Richard Philip Brothers (Monroe County Sheriff’s Office)
Eff around and find out.
A 63-year-old leftist from Syracuse, New York, has been arrested in Florida after being accused of keying a pickup truck with a “Let’s Go Brandon” sticker that provoked his ire.
Richard Philip Brothers was arrested on March 26, 2024, after he was caught on camera keying a green Toyota Tundra in the parking lot of a Winn-Dixie supermarket in Monroe County, Florida. The incident occurred two days prior, on March 24.
According to the police report obtained by The Gateway Pundit, “Richard Brothers knowingly and intentionally used a key to scrape the paint on the victim’s vehicle. Richard admitted he did this on purpose because he saw a “Lets go Brandon” bumper sticker on the victim’s vehicle and he did not like it. Richard’s actions require the truck to be repainted which will cost approximately $3,000 to $6,000.”
Brothers was identified via security footage that captured him deliberately scratching the truck after noticing the sticker.
“I was able to identify Richard through my investigation and contacted Richard on his cell phone. Richard primarily lives in New York but owns a vacation house in Summerland Key where he agreed to meet with me. I arrived at Richard’s house and asked him if he knew what this was about, to which he said no,” Officer Lane said on his police report.
Police: “Do you remember what you did when you walked out of Wenn-Dixie to the green Toyota Tundra? What did you do to it?”
Brothers: “I scratched it.”
Police: “Why? Was it the bumper sticker? Because they’ve got a ton of security footage there, man. Okay, so I see you walking behind it, and you look over at it, and she’s got a sticker that says, ‘Let’s Go Brandon,” or something.”
Brothers: “I guess it infuriated me.”
Police: “Was that it? That’s the only reason you did it. You don’t know who owns the truck or anything?”
Brothers: “Yeah, that’s the only reason I did it.”
Police: “Mr. Brothers, here’s the unfortunate news. She wants to press charges, so I have to take you to jail, sir… It costs about 6,000. It’s a felony. When you damage someone’s property over $1,000, it’s a felony. Normally, I would get a warrant for you, but since it’s a felony and it just happened two days ago, I don’t need a warrant.”
In Florida, criminal mischief resulting in damage of 1,000 or more is classified as a third-degree felony. This can carry a sentence of up to five years in prison and a 5,000 fine, along with the obligation for the offender to provide restitution to the victim.
The owner of the truck that was keyed has decided to press charges, resulting in the swift arrest of Brothers without the need for an arrest warrant, due to the recent and severe nature of the crime. He was jailed overnight. Brothers’ wife did not appear happy about the situation. She became very angry at Richard for doing this.
Richard was arrested and transported to Key West Jail. The preliminary hearing for this case is scheduled for April 30, 2024, where Brothers will face Judge Mark Wilson in a pretrial hearing to address the charges.
President Trump joined Greg Kelly on Newsmax last Thursday to discuss the Democrats’ ongoing lawfare against him and past statements that if he were President, Hillary Clinton would be in jail.
It can be recalled that during an October 2016 debate in St. Louis, Hillary tried to zing Trump, saying, “It’s just awfully good that someone with the temperament of Donald Trump is not in charge of the law in this country,” and he brought the house down with an epic one-liner: “Because you’d be in jail.”
Trump did not follow through with putting Hillary in jail or weaponizing the justice system against his opponents. “I thought it would be a terrible thing for our country,” Trump said in his interview with Kelly.
“They don’t care, these people are radical lunatics, they don’t care,” Trump continued in reference to Joe Biden and the Democrats who have persecuted President Trump and thousands of innocent, peaceful January 6 prisoners.
Trump added, “They have to be very careful with what they’re doing because it comes back to bite.”
The Democrats and Joe Biden, of course, lied about what Trump said and shared a selectively edited clip, claiming, “Trump says Americans who oppose him should ‘be careful’ because his Project 2025 agenda will send the Justice Department after them if he wins.”
Sound familiar?

Trump is currently facing 88 criminal counts brought on by four of Biden’s thugs in different jurisdictions ahead of the 2024 election.
Similarly, Kamala Harris gaslit the American people in a video message earlier this year, claiming that “Donald Trump is an existential threat to our democracy and our most fundamental freedoms” and he “took rights and liberties from the American people.” This is all coming from the same regime that stole an election, took away our nation’s borders, pushed vaccine mandates on the American people, destroyed the economy, persecuted Trump supporters, and is trying to imprison the leading Presidential candidate in 2024.
Kelly: I think you locked up the election with that moment, but you didn't follow through on that. Yet they are trying to put you in jail. Now my question is you were asked about that. You said, Look, these are good people. I don't want to hurt them. And I kind of thought that was a very honorable thing to say. What happens if you become president again regarding them and the rest?
Trump: Well, let me tell you, I didn't want to. I thought it would be a terrible thing. And there were opportunities, obviously, and good, strong control. Everything was good, but I did not want to, and I thought it would be a terrible thing for our country. They don't care, these people are radical lunatics, they don't care. And they have to be very careful with what they're doing because it comes back to bite, and you're right about it. I had plenty — that would have been a horrible thing to do, I thought, but they don't mind doing it. And talking president, not you know, the wife of Bill Clinton would not have been, would not have been a nice thing to do. But I felt that way. I really did. I felt that way, and she was a quite nasty. And by the way, to this day she talks about the election, the election, nobody goes after her. They go after conservative Republicans, they go after Christians. I mean, it's gonna be a lot different out there. And I tell the Republicans, I think I'm having an impact, a big impact. I tell them you better start fighting because, you know, you're not gonna have anything left if you don’t, and we have some great people. You know that. They're on your show a lot. We have some great Republicans but they're realizing they're gonna have to get tougher, and they will.
Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has vowed to file a lawsuit challenging the TikTok ban on “constitutional grounds.”
Joe Biden signed legislation into law on Wednesday that gives ByteDance, which is based in China, nine months to sell or be banned.
In a post on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, Kennedy wrote, “I’m going to file a lawsuit challenging the TikTok ban on Constitutional grounds.”
“Don’t be fooled — the TikTok ban is not about China harvesting your data. That’s a smoke screen. Intelligence agencies from lots of countries, especially ours, are harvesting your data from everywhere all the time,” Kennedy continued. “TikTok isn’t even majority Chinese-owned, and the company agreed to put its data behind a U.S. firewall. The Biden administration rejected that deal.”
I’m going to file a lawsuit challenging the TikTok ban on Constitutional grounds.
Don’t be fooled — the TikTok ban is not about China harvesting your data. That’s a smoke screen. Intelligence agencies from lots of countries, especially ours, are harvesting your data from…
— Robert F. Kennedy Jr (@RobertKennedyJr) April 26, 2024
Kennedy added, “Congress and the administration don’t understand that TikTok is an entrepreneurial platform for thousands of American young people. They want to screw them over just so they can pretend to be tough on China.”
The post concluded, “The TikTok ban is yet another example of how neither political party has any compunctions about sacrificing your freedoms, rights, and choices when it serves their political interests.”
Former President Donald Trump has also opposed the legislation, writing on Truth Social, “Just so everyone knows, especially the young people, Crooked Joe Biden is responsible for banning TikTok.”
The Republican nominee said that Biden is the one pushing for the ban in order to “help his friends over at Facebook become richer and more dominant.”
“He is the one pushing it to close, and doing it to help his friends over at Facebook become richer and more dominant, and able to continue to fight, perhaps illegally, the Republican Party,” Trump continued.
Trump also asserted that the TikTok ban is “ELECTION INTERFERENCE.”
“It’s called ELECTION INTERFERENCE!” Trump exclaimed. “Young people, and lots of others, must remember this on November 5th, ELECTION DAY, when they vote! They also must remember, more importantly, that he is destroying our Country, and is A MAJOR THREAT TO DEMOCRACY!”
ByteDance has repeatedly said they are unwilling to sell and will also challenge the ban in court.
A New Jersey college canceled a “drag queen story hour” scheduled for “Bring your child to work” day after faculty complained.
Drag queen “Harmonica Sunbeam” had been booked months in advance to read to staff members’ children at Brookdale Community College, but was removed from the schedule the night before the event.
“I did ask why, but I did not receive an answer,” the drag queen told NJ.com. “This had been planned for quite some time so I was shocked that it was canceled the night before.”
At a recent performance, the drag queen dressed in a sheer nun outfit mocking the Christian faith.
“We sing songs, they do some activities,” the adult performer said. “We were just going to be coloring and some picture taking if anybody wanted to take pictures.”
Laura Oncea, a Brookdale Community College spokeswoman, told the outlet that the act was canceled “to respect differing views of its staff.”
“Bring Your Child to Work Day was a success at Brookdale Community College, where employees and their children engaged and enjoyed our stigma-free, diverse, and inclusive campus atmosphere,” Oncea said in a statement.
“As an inclusive community, we understand and respect that parents have the right to decide when and how they want their children to explore diverse ideas. While the Drag Queen read-along was intended to promote inclusivity and acceptance, we recognize and acknowledge the diverse viewpoints within our workforce and have opted to respect the comfort levels of all involved,” the statement continued.
Trump Endorsed Arizona Senate candidate Kari Lake released a new campaign ad this weekend, where she exposes how Democrat Congressman Ruben Gallego abandoned his family for a DC lobbyist.
Lake is expected to face Gallego in the November General Election.
Her new ad takes a shot at Gallego’s personal life, exposing his rotten divorce from Mayor Kate Gallego in 2016. “Just imagine you’re nine months pregnant. Your baby’s name is picked out. The nursery is ready. And then your husband leaves you, and files for divorce,” the video says.
It continues, “He divorced his wife when she was nine months pregnant. And then he shacked up with a DC lobbyist and left his son fatherless” and slams the move as “disgraceful.”
Sources further told The Gateway Pundit, “He left [Kate Gallego] days before she gave birth. It was so bad that her parents had to relocate overnight to help her give birth and take care of the baby. They moved hundreds of miles to Phoenix to help her.”
Per the Daily Caller, “Gallego’s wife, Sydney Barron, is a lobbyist for the National Association of Realtors. Gallego has reportedly supported bills pushed by her, according to the Washington Free Beacon.”
“Ruben Gallego is already a deadbeat dad. Arizona doesn’t need a deadbeat senator,” the video concludes.
This is almost like Gallego’s stance on abortion, which would allow a woman to abandon a baby all the way up until birth, just as he did with his nine-month-pregnant wife.
The new ad, exposing Gallego’s messy divorce and poor family values, comes as Kari Lake is under fire from Gallego and the Democrats’ leftist media goons for her views on abortion, which Gallego claims are extreme and align with a nationwide total ban on abortion.
However, similar to President Trump’s policy on abortion, Lake said she believes the individual states should be allowed to make abortion policy, but she will “do everything she can to help women choose life.” Lake, the only mother in the race, says she believes “life is priceless, and that having children is the greatest blessing any woman can ever experience.”
In the Senate, “Kari’s focus will be on ensuring that young women facing the challenges of motherhood have all the support they need to choose life, including quality pre-natal care, parenting classes, and financial support where necessary,” reads her official policy.

Lake released the following video message on her stance regarding abortion:
Watch Lake’s new ad below:
Just imagine you’re nine months pregnant. Your baby’s name is picked out. The nursery is ready. And then your husband leaves you, and files for divorce. Who could do o that? Ruben Gallego did. He divorced his wife when she was nine months pregnant. And then he shacked up with a DC lobbyist and left his son fatherless. It’s disgraceful. Ruben Gallego is already a deadbeat dad. Arizona doesn’t need a deadbeat senator. I’m Kari Lake and I approve this message.
Trump’s support in the poll among registered voters holds steady at 49% in a head-to-head matchup against Biden, the same as in CNN’s last national poll on the race in January, while Biden’s stands at 43%, not significantly different from January’s 45%.
Looking back, 55% of all Americans now say they see Trump’s presidency as a success, while 44% see it as a failure. In a January 2021 poll taken just before Trump left office and days after the January 6 attack on the US Capitol, 55% considered his time as president a failure.
Other positive findings include 55 percent of voters saying his presidency was a success, while 61 percent see Joe Biden’s presidency as a failure:
Among all voters, when independent candidates Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Cornel West and Green Party candidate Jill Stein are included in the matchup, Trump holds 42% to Biden’s 33%, with Kennedy at 16%, West at 4% and Stein at 3%. Kennedy draws 13% each from supporters of Biden and Trump in the initial two-way matchup.
Assessing Biden’s time in office so far, 61% say his presidency thus far has been a failure, while 39% say it’s been a success. That’s narrowly worse than the 57% who called the first year of his administration a failure in January 2022, with 41% calling it a success.
Although polling data is notoriously unreliable, the findings may be an indication that Trump’s campaign is once again beginning to pick up steam.
Meanwhile, a Bloomberg/Morning Consult swing state poll this week found that Trump leads Biden in seven key swing states, while Biden maintains a two-point lead in Michigan.
A New Mexico grandmother is speaking out after audio has emerged showing the moment she gave a career criminal a painful lesson for breaking into her home.
As KRQE reported Thursday, 45-year-old Albuquerque resident Anissa Tinnin was enjoying the evening watching the Taylor Swift Eras Tour movie with her 4-year-old granddaughter last month when she came face to face with a career criminal, who was identified as 32-year-old Joseph Rivera, running away from police.
“We had our popcorn and M&M’s, dancing and singing along, when our lives were about to suddenly change,” she wrote on Facebook.
Anissa Tinnin speaks to KRQE about her ordeal.
Tinnen managed to chase Rivera away from her residence at first, but he broke in a second time and threatened to harm her and her granddaughter.
“I jumped over this couch, and we met there by the front door. That’s when he grabbed me and was upset and said to give him my keys. He said he didn’t want to go to jail. He did threaten to hurt my granddaughter and me,” Tinnin told KRQE.
Tinnin said she tried to obtain more information from the suspect, but he had no interest in the conversation. She then looked for her keys as she dialed 911.
Rivera then grabbed her key fob and attempted to break into her car. He then made his way back toward the house after failing to do so.
KRQE obtained the audio of the 911 call, which they played during their interview with Tinnin. During the call, Tinnin reveals to the dispatcher that the thug broke into her house and tried to take her car. She begs for assistance.
Listen and watch:
Tinnin (crying on the phone): “This guy came into my house and tried to take my car. Please help me.”
She then turns to her sobbing granddaughter and tells her to be “brave” and to stay in the bedroom.
Tinnin: “I need you to be really brave right now. I got to go. Stay right here in the bedroom.”
“It’s okay, baby.” “It’s okay. It’s okay.”
Tinnin next grabbed her gun to check if the suspect had left, but he hadn’t yet. Rivera can be heard banging on the door before kicking it in.
She shoots him after an initial warning, leaving him shocked.
Tinnin: “Get back. Get back. I have a gun. Get back. Get back. I will f**king shoot you.”
(Gunfire)
Dispatcher: “What did you do?”
Rivera: “Why did you shoot me?”
Tinnin: “Because you’re in my f****** house!”
The grandmother then renders aid to the wounded thug but warns him that if he tries anything sinister, she will shoot him again.
Tinnin: “I will give you water, but if you f**king hurt me, I’m going to shoot you again.”
Tinnin then begs the dispatcher for help and demands to know why the police have not arrived yet.
Tinnin: “This is not happening… where are the police?”
A few minutes later, the police finally arrived to drag Rivera out of the house.
Following the incident, Rivera was charged with burglary, attempting to commit a felony, and auto theft. He previously had five previous felony convictions for other burglaries and auto thefts.

Tinnin told KRQE that she wanted the district attorney to throw the book at Rivera. “I would like for him to be held to the fullest extent,” she said. “I absolutely do not want the District Attorney’s Office giving him a plea deal. He belongs in jail.”
Tinnin also told the outlet she felt God helped protect her family throughout the ordeal.
“I do believe we had a guardian angel here with us, and I do firmly believe that God was watching over us,” said Tinnin.

TikTok’s parent company, ByteDance, has announced that they have no plans to sell — which would allow the popular social media platform to continue operating in the United States.
Joe Biden signed legislation into law on Wednesday that gives ByteDance, which is based in China, nine months to sell or be banned.
“Foreign media reports that ByteDance is exploring the sale of TikTok are untrue,” ByteDance said in a statement on Toutiao, a news aggregation app that it owns, according to a report from CNN. “ByteDance doesn’t have any plan to sell TikTok,” it said.
Even if TikTok were purchased in the U.S., it likely would be different from the app users use today because Chinese export rules would regulate whether the algorithm could be transferred, and the TikTok algorithm has been a key factor to its popularity among users.
The other route for TikTok to remain active in the U.S. is through a successful court case. TikTok announced Wednesday, immediately after Biden signed the law, that it would challenge it in court.
TikTok has already argued the law is “unconstitutional.”
“This unconstitutional law is a TikTok ban, and we will challenge it in court,” the social media platform said in a statement. “We believe the facts and the law are clearly on our side, and we will ultimately prevail.”
The statement added that TikTok has “invested billions of dollars to keep U.S. data safe and our platform free from outside influence and manipulation.”
“This ban would devastate seven million businesses and silence 170 million Americans,” the company continued. “As we continue to challenge this unconstitutional ban, we will continue investing and innovating to ensure TikTok remains a space where Americans of all walks of life can safely come to share their experiences, find joy, and be inspired.”
The Biden campaign has said that it is remaining active on TikTok despite claiming the app is a national security risk.
Former President Donald Trump has blasted Biden for the legislation, writing on Truth Social, “Just so everyone knows, especially the young people, Crooked Joe Biden is responsible for banning TikTok.”
The Republican nominee said that Biden is the one pushing for the ban in order to “help his friends over at Facebook become richer and more dominant.”
“He is the one pushing it to close, and doing it to help his friends over at Facebook become richer and more dominant, and able to continue to fight, perhaps illegally, the Republican Party,” Trump continued.
Trump also asserted that the TikTok ban is “ELECTION INTERFERENCE.”
“It’s called ELECTION INTERFERENCE!” Trump exclaimed. “Young people, and lots of others, must remember this on November 5th, ELECTION DAY, when they vote! They also must remember, more importantly, that he is destroying our Country, and is A MAJOR THREAT TO DEMOCRACY!”

High unemployment plus high inflation equals stagflation. This is Bidenomics in action.
The White House and mainstream media can spin the unemployment numbers any way they want, but spin doesn’t change the reality; things are bad. The official unemployment rate is 3.8%, up from 3.5% last year. Meanwhile, under Biden, as much as 25% of the jobs created are government jobs. That is at least double what it should be for a free-market, capitalist country. Despite this boom in taxpayer-funded government job creation, employment fell again last month by 50,000 jobs. This year, about 1.8 million full-time jobs have disappeared.
Ironically, the workforce participation rate has been falling under Biden. This means that even though a greater percentage of the population has decided to give up and no longer look for a job, there still aren’t enough jobs for those who want to work.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2023 ended with 4.2 million Americans reporting that they were working part-time jobs for economic reasons, which was an increase of 333,000 from the previous year. This includes people whose hours have been cut from full-time to part-time. The jobs report showed that the number of part-time jobs is growing, while the number of full-time jobs is decreasing.
The US Bureau of Labor Statistics defines employment as any individual aged 16 or older who has worked as a paid employee for at least one hour per week. Consequently, the number of unemployed individuals wouldn’t change if someone who previously held a full-time job with benefits, earning $124,000 annually, transitioned to working just a single hour per week at a fast-food establishment for $7.25 an hour without benefits. Following this logic, the White House could claim it created a job when a single part-time position is added to the economy.
Bidenomics has magically transformed full-time jobs into part-time jobs and private sector jobs into public sector jobs. And that will not grow the economy or make people’s lives better.
Another achievement of Bidenomics is inflation. Biden was able to grow that number much higher than Trump ever did. During the four years of the Trump administration, the highest average inflation rate was 2.4%, which occurred in 2018, and the lowest was in 2020 when inflation dropped to 1.2%. Biden scored a high of 8% in 2022 and is currently running at about 3.5%.
While 2024 so far has been better than 2023, which hit an average of 4.1% inflation. At the same time, inflation has been rising month on month. So, we may get back to 4% at some point soon.
The reason why the Trump economy was so amazing is that he had low inflation, low unemployment, and low interest rates—a trifecta that is almost impossible to achieve. Normally, a high inflation rate results in a low unemployment rate and vice versa. So, the government has to balance between job creation and inflation, and the Federal Reserve regulates inflation by raising or lowering the interest rates. However, Trump was able to deliver low unemployment and low inflation while keeping interest rates below 1%.
As of last month, the Federal Funds Rate was at a 23-year high of 5.25% to 5.5%. At that rate, it is no wonder that job creation is low; however, there should be no inflation. But even with this decade’s high interest rate, inflation is rising and employment is falling. And this condition matches the definition of stagflation.
The reason why stagflation is such a scary monster is that it defies most of the tools the Fed has in its arsenal to regulate the economy. The Fed can raise interest rates to fight inflation, but that will cause unemployment to rise. Alternatively, the Fed can cut interest rates to create jobs, but that will cause inflation to rise.
In an election year, a sitting president may want to cut interest rates in order to create the illusion of growth, and this is exactly what Democrats are calling for. In fact, even the Fed has said it might cut interest rates if that would give Biden a boost for the election.
Nearly all countries around the world have some type of central bank. Many of them are government-owned, while others are private. The US Fed is not owned by the government. As such, it is meant to be independent of government influence, making monetary policy decisions based on mathematical and economic models, irrespective of politics. However, this year, the Fed has admitted that they may change US monetary policy to influence the election. Not only would this be a violation of the public trust, but it would also be detrimental to the economy.
The Federal Reserve Chairman who played a key role in curbing the stagflation of the 1970s was Paul Volcker. And the way he did it was by aggressively raising interest rates, which peaked at 20%. The high interest rates caused a great deal of hardship, but that is what it took to tame 10 years of high inflation and high unemployment.
If the Fed cuts interest rates to help Biden in the election, we could be looking at several more years of skyrocketing inflation and rising unemployment.
The long-awaited return to normal has started in America.
Google swiftly fired 28 employees who occupied their boss’s office in protest against a corporate contract with Israel. Educational institutions such as Vanderbilt University and Columbia Universityhave suspended or expelled student protesters who occupied buildings and spaces illegally. Pomona College, American University, and the University of Georgia have similarly suspended student activists for causing disruptions.
American institutions are no longer willing to put up with selfish, entitled, and unrealistic direct actions. That is a good thing. The nation went crazy in 2020 and has taken four years to regrow a backbone against the tiny, vocal minority trying to upend American values and our daily lives.
The rule of law, respect for authority, tolerance of difference, and civil behavior are all core American values that higher education has thrown away and our national institutions are now scrambling to reclaim. Institutions’ experiment with placating activist intolerance is over.
These disciplinary measures are the first step in a long road back to sanity. The path will have roadblocks, and quite literally did on April 15 when protesters across the country used their bodies to blockade airports, bridges, and highways. But at least America now appears oriented in the correct direction.
The greatest evidence for this trend comes from Claire Shipman, the board of trustees co-chair at Columbia University, who testified before the House Committee on Education & the Workforce hearing on antisemitism on that campus. Shipman’s April 17 testimony made clear that universities are overrun with antisemitic protests because they have lost their ways as institutions of learning and are now incubators for anti-American revolutionaries.
Shipman’s vision for a better Columbia thoroughly rejects the prevailing attitudes in 2020 that tasked higher education to create the next generation of politically active social justice warriors. Like a butterfly shedding its cocoon that kept it ignorant of what was always there, Shipman’s attitude can serve as a roadmap for universities to restore their founding values, de-politicize their curriculum, and narrow their focus to academic rigor and excellence.
A return to basics will benefit American institutions on and off campus because these virtues are the necessary ingredients for robust liberal educations that foster intellectual curiosity, civil debate, and respect for humanity. The students occupying their campuses in pitched tents possess none of these characteristics. Their jeers, physical attacks, and calls for death project a future America devoid of our core values.
The last four years set American society and education back a generation. But hope is not lost. Some businesses and universities have found their authority to assert civility and tolerance.
Google moved past its problematic employees much faster than Netflix did in 2021 when a hoard of LGBTQ workers walked out in protest of a Dave Chapelle special. This semester, university presidents are more decisive than in November 2023, when the University of Michigan tolerated more than 200 anti-Israel student protesters who occupied an administrative building.
Yale University warned its protesters that they would face consequences for occupying campus and promptly arrested over 40 students. Columbia University is an exception to this trend. Its president, Minouche Shafik, is a deer in headlights too afraid to move against Jew-haters as the campus anti-Semites continue to occupy the Manhattan campus. The trendline resembles Yale’s actions more than Columbia’s inaction.
Swift removals and firings are good for business, whether that business is software technology or higher learning. Zero tolerance for disruptive political actions also benefits workers and students focused on learning new skills and getting ahead.
Productivity grinds to a halt when Americans cannot use their highways, airports, offices, and classrooms. Americans cannot succeed when we cannot utilize our resources to the greatest potential.
We all deserve life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness free from those who would ruin our days to satisfy their selfish causes. But our inalienable rights will become unattainable rights if universities — which shepherd undergraduates into the real world — fail to instill the right values in students. Higher education getting its act together will pay dividends for our economy, communities, and society.

Palestinian athletes will be given the opportunity to compete at the 2024 Olympic Games without having to qualify.
Thomas Bach, head of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), confirmed that six to eight Palestinian athletes will be invited to participate in the Paris Games. Qualification events are currently ongoing.
“Whave made the clear commitment that even if no [Palestinian] athlete would qualify on the field of play… then the NOC [National Olympic Committee] of Palestine would benefit from invitations, like other national Olympic Committees who do not have a qualified athlete,” Bach said in an interview with Agence France-Presse.
Bach added that the International Olympic Committee (IOC) had always “supported in many different ways the athletes to allow them to take part in qualifications and to continue their training.”
His comments come as Israel comes under increasing pressure from around the world to ease its offensive against the Islamist group Hamas, which has led to the deaths of tens of thousands of Palestinian civilians.
Meanwhile, French President Emmanuel Macron has ordered that Russian athletes will be allowed to compete at the games, although only under a neutral banner. They must also have never publicly supported Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and have no links to the country’s military or security services.
“The situation between Israel and Palestine is completely different,” Bach added. “From day one, we expressed how horrified we were, first on the seventh of October and then about the war and its horrifying consequences. We have always been very clear, as we have been with the Russian invasion in Ukraine.”
Dozens of predominantly Muslim men have been sentenced to a combined total of 346 years for sexually abusing girls in Yorkshire, England.
In a press release on Saturday, West Yorkshire Police confirmed that 25 men had been sentenced for various sexual related crimes:
Dozens of men who sexually abused young girls in Kirklees have been jailed for a combined 346 years following a major police investigation. Sentencing took place at Leeds Crown Court yesterday ( April 26 ) for the latest men convicted as part of Operation Tourway, a multi-year investigation into the non-recent sexual exploitation of young girls in North Kirklees.
Asif Ali (53) from Batley, Mohammed Tausif Hanif (39) from Dewsbury, Ali Shah (38) from Dewsbury, Moshin Nadat (38) from Heckmondwike, Sarfraz Miraf (38) from Dewsbury, Mohammed Nazam Nasser (38) from Batley and Amir Ali Hussain (45) from Batley were all sentenced for multiple offences.
…
An eighth man was also made subject of a hospital order following a finding of the facts at court. Their conviction means 25 men have so far been sentenced for their roles in the rape, sexual abuse and trafficking of eight then young girls in North Kirklees between 1999 and 2012.
One of the men convicted received a sentence in excess of 30 years during the trials, most of which were protected by reporting restrictions to ensure those involved could be tried fairly. Now, with the lifting of restrictions, 24 men brought to court so far can be named and full details of their sentences disclosed.
Operation Tourway is merely the latest case of predominantly Muslim men found guilty of heinous sex crimes against young girls, often on an endemic scale.
The most notorious of these cases was Rotherham grooming gangs scandal, where around 1,400 children were abused by gangs of British-Pakistani men, between 1997 and 2013.
Although some of the culprits were eventually convicted, many also evaded justice after police refused to act on reports of sexual abuse over fears they would be labelled as racist.

The US House of Representatives passed legislation to allow the transfer of seized Russian assets to Ukraine.
According to CNN – The measure approved by the House on April 20 will enable the executive branch to seize immobilized Russian assets and use them to help Ukraine’s defense and recovery efforts.
In response to the move by US lawmakers Russia confiscated $439 million from JPMorgan, the largest US Bank.
Amidst the geopolitical chess game following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, a Russian court has decisively ruled in favor of state-owned VTB Bank, sanctioning the seizure of a staggering $439.5 million from JPMorgan Chase.
This action targets the funds previously frozen by the American financial giant under U.S. sanctions, highlighting a severe clash between international legal actions and national banking operations.
The directive issued by a St. Petersburg arbitration court not only captures JPMorgan’s cash reserves in Russia but also extends its grip to both movable and immovable assets of the bank, including significant shares in its Russian subsidiaries.
The court’s decision emerges from a lawsuit initiated by VTB aiming to recover the frozen funds, alleging that JPMorgan’s planned exit from Russia exacerbates the financial strife. The next discussion in this legal tangle is scheduled for July 17, promising further developments in this high-stakes financial drama.
Earlier this week Barb Turpin wrote The Gateway Pundit to share the very sad news that her son Dominic Pezzola was recently diagnosed with cancer while serving time in prison.
Barb blames the medical neglect Dominic endured since being held in prison.
Barb wrote this:
I’m hoping you will post an update on Gateway Pundit about my son now having Cancer because of the medical neglect in All of the facilities he’s been in. Dominic was on Doctors care before January 6th and was diagnosed with Barrettes Esophagus which is an erosion of the esophagus. He was put on very strong medication to prevent it from becoming cancer and he needs to get an upper GI test every 1-2 years.
Dominic was denied his medication each time he was moved and had to fight to get it. He suffered many times since his incarceration because he didn’t get his medication. He was promised several times he was going to get the upper GI test but to this day hasn’t. Dominic wants to get the word out ASAP about this because he’s not the only one going thru the medical neglect as we all know. My son being diagnosed with Cancer could have been prevented. We don’t know yet if it is Esophagus Cancer, what stage or what will be the recommended treatment as of now. They said he won’t be sent to the hospital to find out those answers for at least four weeks.
Jim, I’m devastated, heartbroken and extremely worried for my son. After all it’s the Bureau of Prisons system that is responsible for this neglect and diagnosis. How can we have faith that they will do what’s right and HOW will he get the care he needs. If you want to speak with me about this I’m always available.
Thank you and God Bless

J6 political prisoner Dominic Pezzola with his children.
Dominic also sent this epic statement from prison.
Statement from Dominic Pezzola, April 2024, after he was diagnosed with cancer.
Jenn Baker wrote more about Dominic’s situation at Condemned USA Substack.
Unfortunately, because the BOP limits the inmates to 500 minutes of phone calls per month, Dominic, with only ten minutes left for the month, will be sitting alone with this diagnosis for the next six days until his minutes refill. This has been a very trying time for the Pezzola family. They welcome all the support and the love given to them from the American people and thank you for sticking by them.
FCI Butner has been in the spotlight as just one of the many prisons that have become dilapidated and should be shut down. The amount of black mold, asbestos, and decay these prison buildings have are beyond inhabitable. The kitchen at FCI Butner has fallen in on itself. The conditions of the kitchen make it impossible for the prison to be sure they are providing food that is safe and in line with Food Safety Practices.
This is only one instance of what is happening with the walls of this particular prison, and the treatment of Dominic Pezzola is just the tip of the iceberg.
There’s an online petition to address questions of the condition of the prison to the NC Health Department. If you are interested in helping with this, go to:
One would be hard-pressed to describe US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken as competent of effective, but in fairness he is mostly given impossible missions and often sees his work undone by the chaotic Joe Biden administration from hell.
We don’t need a thousand words to establish that, because Blinken himself has told us everything we need to know by his facial expressions here, after he worked hard to set up a bilateral summit between Joe Biden and China’s Xi Jinping, only to see his effort trashed in a second by the ‘self-propelled grandpa’:
The trip seemed doomed from the start, and indeed it began in a humiliating fashion: when leaving his plane in Shanghai, Antony Blinken was greeted without a red carpet, and met by Shanghai Party Committee and Politburo member Chen Jining – a very low level local official.
This is the diplomatic equivalent of a slap in the face – protocol dictates the head of the State Department should be met by the Minister of Foreign Affairs – but things were about to get even worse.
Watch: Blinken arrives in Shanghai: no red carpet, low-level official receives him.
Blinken soldiered on, and the meeting with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi want as badly as one would expect, with the Chinese diplomat openly displaying the adversarial tone of the meeting, saying that the US ‘should not interfere in China’s domestic affairs or suppress its development’, nor should it cross China’s ‘red lines’.
“China’s demands are consistent. It always advocates mutual respect for core interests. The United States should not interfere in China’s internal affairs, should not suppress China’s development, and should not cross Beijing’s red lines regarding China’s sovereignty, security and development interests,” Wang said as quoted by China Central Television (CCTV).
China’s legitimate rights to development are being constantly suppressed and its core interests are being challenged, the Chinese Foreign Minister emphasized.
Wang said China-US relations are facing various obstacles, ‘with negative factors that continue to grow and accumulate’.
Blinken, of course, presented his own list of grievances, stating that the United States is ready to take new measures and impose sanctions against China against the background of the situation in Ukraine.
“If China does not take measures to solve this problem, the US will do it [impose sanctions].”
Of course, Blinken could not convince China to stop helping Russia, or achieve any progress in the bilateral relations.
He said Russia is using Chinese products to build up its military industry.
“Beijing will not be able to achieve improved relations with Europe by supporting the greatest threat to European security since the end of the Cold War.”
The meeting with Xi Jinping was the most embarrassing moment of the trip, when the Chinese leader was caught on camera impatiently asking an aide: ‘When will he leave?’
‘This evening’, an official answered.
The footage goes on to show Blinken entering the room and trotting towards Xi, who extends his arm the least amount possible, in a clear body language sign of control of the situation, and of lack of respect and appreciation towards the US diplomat.
To top it off, Blinken’s departure from China was even more melancholic: NO OFFICIAL CHINESE REPRESENTATIVES attended, and he was seen off by the U.S. Ambassador to China Nicholas Burns.
Medical professionals are beginning to take a closer look at the potential adverse effects of COVID-19 vaccines, particularly following a series of health complications among younger adults.
Florencia Tarque, a 29-year-old Director of International Recruiting at Puulse Marketing, has come forward with a personal health crisis that her cardiologists suggest may be linked to her COVID-19 vaccination.
“Attention: Cardiologists are now saying my heart problem is more than likely a result of the COVID vaccine,” she wrote on Facebook.
Tarque, an athlete who has maintained a lifestyle centered around wellness, experienced a shocking medical scare earlier this month when she was admitted to the hospital after three electrocardiograms (EKGs) indicated signs of a heart attack.
Despite the alarming EKG results, an angiogram performed urgently revealed no blockages, leaving both Tarque and her medical team baffled. It was later determined that she had developed myopericarditis, an inflammation of the heart muscle and surrounding tissue.
The image above shows the wrist of Florencia Tarque following her angiogram procedure. Tarque describes the process as painful, having been awake throughout. (Credit: Florencia Tarque/Facebook)
Tarque expressed her frustration and anger in a series of social media posts, particularly emphasizing the mandatory nature of the vaccination for her job and travel commitments.
“I’m angry because tons of 20-something-year-old athletes now have heart problems,” she said, reflecting a concern that has been echoed in various communities across the globe.
In a follow-up post, Tarque disclosed that an MRI confirmed she had indeed suffered a heart attack, despite the lack of coronary blockages or other typical indicators of such an event.
“Angiogram showed no blockage or coronary problem the day I had my heart attack. Three EKGs showed heart attack. Week later my MRI confirmed heart attack,” she said.
“29 years old, played sports my whole life. No health issues. WTF,” she wrote, encapsulating her shock and disbelief.
There are many similar cases to Tarque. Functional medicine practitioner Jon Mitchell commented, “I have many clients who have had a lot of random health stuff pop up after getting the shot. Autoimmune, clotting throughout the body, brain abnormalities, cardiac issues, iron deficiency, etc. Some docs are acknowledging it, but very few are speaking up. It’s infuriating.”
The majority of the so-called healthcare experts continue to assert the benefits of COVID-19 vaccines in preventing severe illness, hospitalization, and death due to the virus far outweigh the risks of side effects.
Saturday Night Live star Colin Jost was the designated “comedian” for the White House Correspondent’s Association dinner on Saturday and there were no prizes for guessing his political views.
After “roasting” Trump and Biden with a series of tame and not particularly funny quips, Jost launched into an emotional tirade about his late grandfather where he praised the president’s supposed “decency.”
“My grandfather, a Staten Island firefighter, voted for you, Mr. President,” said Jost. “He voted for you and the reason that he voted for you is because you’re a decent man. My grandpa voted for decency and decency is why we’re all here tonight.”
“Decency is how we’re able to be here tonight,” he continued. “Decency is how we’re able to make jokes about each other and one of us doesn’t go to prison after — we go to the Newsmax after-party.”
Biden, meanwhile, used his remarks at the dinner to implore the media to support his campaign.
“I’m sincerely not asking you to take sides, but asking you to rise up to the seriousness of the moment,” he told the audience.
Here is Biden’s message for the press corps: “I’m sincerely not asking you to take sides, but asking you to rise up to the seriousness of the moment.” pic.twitter.com/9zyShUFbPk
The 81-year-old also joked about spearheading the political persecution of Donald Trump.
“I had a great stretch since the State of the Union,” Biden slurred. “But Donald has had a few tough days lately. You might call it stormy weather. What the hell.”
Women will be forced to compete against men. And women will be forced to accept men on their sports teams.
Women and young girls will be forced to share locker rooms and bathrooms based on gender identity rather than biological sex.
Young girls everywhere will be subject to the type of sexual exposure allegedly faced by the female athletes forced to share a locker room with trans swimmer Lia Thomas.
Preferred pronouns are also now mandated, and even the single use of the “wrong” pronoun can require discipline.
And, as May Mailman, Director of Independent Women’s Law Center, notes, Title IX is not a college law. This will impact girls as young as those in the Headstart program, geared to children from three to five years old, those in daycare, and those in Kindergarten through 12th grade.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis had strong words for Biden and his attack on women, “We will not comply.”
“Florida rejects Joe Biden’s attempt to rewrite Title IX. We will not comply, and we will fight back.”
“We are not going to let Joe Biden try to inject men into women’s activities.”
“We are not going to let Joe Biden undermine the rights of parents. And we are not going to let Joe Biden abuse his Constitutional authority to try to impose these policies on us here in Florida. We stand with opportunities, we are not going to let Biden get away with it.”
“We will not comply.”
Watch:
Florida’s response to Joe Biden trying to inject gender ideology into education, undermining opportunities for girls and women, violating parents’ rights, and abusing his constitutional authority:
Earlier this week, the anti-Israel mob vowed to ‘shut down’ the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, which is happening tonight. We reported on their plans.
Well, the mob kept their word. They showed up and they are making a total nuisance of themselves as usual.
Of course, the people they’re harassing are beltway journalists, so this is a bit entertaining.
Chants of ‘shame on you’ greet guests at White House correspondents’ dinner shadowed by war in Gaza
An election-year roast of President Joe Biden before journalists, celebrities and politicians at the annual White House correspondents’ dinner Saturday butted up against growing public discord over the Israel-Hamas war, with protests outside the event condemning both Biden’s handling of the conflict and the Western news’ media coverage of it.
In previous years, Biden, like most of his predecessors, has used the glitzy annual White House Correspondents’ Association gala to needle media coverage of his administration and jab at political rivals, notably Republican rival Donald Trump.
With hundreds of protesters rallying against the war in Gaza outside the event and concerns over the conflict and humanitarian crisis in Gaza and the perils for journalists covering the conflict, the war hung over this year’s event.
“Shame on you!” protesters draped in the traditional Palestinian keffiyeh cloth shouted, running after men in tuxedos and suits and women in long dresses who were holding clutch purses as guests hurried inside for the dinner.
See the videos below:
Terrorist sympathizers stage a massive protest outside the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, complete with a “die-in” and the unfurling of a huge Palestinian flag from a hotel window.
Biden struggled to eat his food. He isn’t used to eating solid food and feeding himself. Saturday night’s dinner was different than his usual pureed food spoon-fed to him.
He appeared confused as he pushed the salad around on his plate and got distracted by a dinner roll. Biden struggled to break the bread roll and barely got his fork to his mouth.

In case you were wondering what all these campus protests are really all about, this should answer any remaining questions.
During an anti-Israel campus protest at George Washington University this weekend, a speaker said ‘We must have a revolution so we can have a socialist reconstruction of the United States of America.’
That’s the quiet part out loud right there. Do you think this is what the founders of George Washington University had in mind for their school?

Demonstrations at GW University campus over Israel-Hamas war enter 3rd day
Pro-Palestinian student protests on and in front of George Washington University’s University Yard entered their third day on Saturday with no sign of slowing down.
While many protesters have abandoned the encampment on the yard, WTOP’s Linh Bui saw 15 tents in the new H Street encampment and over 50 protesters waking up on the street Saturday morning.
The Hatchet, the GW University student newspaper, reported that the number of demonstrators outside the yard swelled to somewhere between 200 and 250 around 11 p.m. Friday night on H Street, but dwindled to around 100 in the early morning hours on Saturday.
Most protesters, mix of students and nonstudents, moved onto the street and surrounding area Friday afternoon — taking their bags and tents with them — after university workers put up metal fencing around University Yard. The student news source reported that there were far less demonstrators in the original encampment as of Saturday morning.
This is Occupy Wall Street all over again, they’re just using the conflict in the Middle East as a cover cause.
Joe Biden Saturday evening stayed up past his bedtime to deliver remarks at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner with Hollywood elitists.
Biden openly joked about spearheading prosecutions against his main political opponent Donald Trump.
President Trump is currently spending his days in a court in Manhattan because a crooked Soros DA brought bogus charges related to ‘hush payments’ made to porn star Stormy Daniels.
Biden’s DOJ also indicted Trump on more than 40 felony charges.
Of course, Joe Biden knows he can’t win unless he cheats. He is free to travel around and slur through campaign speeches at small venues while Trump is tied up in court.
This is by design.
“I had a great stretch since the State of the Union,” Biden slurred. “But Donald has had a few tough days lately. You might call it stormy weather. What the hell,” Biden said.

April Board Meeting Comments on Title IX (Screenshot: Superintendent Ryan Walters/Facebook)
Oklahoma State Superintendent of Public Instruction Ryan Walters condemned President Joe Biden’s recent rewrite of Title IX, labeling it as “radical and illegal” and a direct assault on the rights of states, families, and specifically young women and girls.
The Biden regime proudly announced that women will be forced to allow men in their locker rooms and bathrooms with a new 1577-page Title IX ruling.
Women will be forced to compete against men and women will be forced to accept men on their sports teams.
And, as May Mailman, Director of Independent Women’s Law Center, notes, Title IX is not a college law. This will impact girls as young as those in the Headstart program, geared to children from three to five-years old, those in daycare, and those in Kindergarten through 12th grade.
Young girls everywhere will be subject to the type of sexual exposure allegedly faced by the female athletes forced to share a locker room with trans swimmer Lia Thomas.
Preferred pronouns are also now mandated, and even the single use of the “wrong” pronoun can require discipline.
Title IX is now a thing of the past.
The new rules cement protections for L.G.B.T.Q. students under federal law. Additionally, it reverses Trump-era policies, including one that protects women by dictating how schools should respond to cases of alleged sexual misconduct in K-12 schools and college campuses.
Walters made it clear that Oklahoma does not intend to comply with the unconstitutional federal mandate.
“President Biden deciding to rewrite Title IX is one of the most radical and illegal moves we’ve ever seen from the federal government. It’s an attack on our states. It’s an attack on our families. And it’s an attack on our young women and girls. We will not stand for this in Oklahoma,” said Ryan Walters, Oklahoma State Superintendent of Public Instruction.
“We are pursuing all actions to oppose this illegal and unconstitutional move by the Biden administration. We have already instructed our districts to not comply with this illegal rule change for president Biden. We will not allow boys in the girls restrooms. We will not put boys in girls sports as a coach and as a parent. I’ve watched young girls work to learn the lessons that come along with playing sports.”
“They have been able to show leadership. They have been able to dedicate so much of their life to learning those lessons that come from hard work, that come from teamwork, that come from competition. And to see the federal government try to erase girl sports is disgusting.”
Governors and state education leaders in Florida, Louisiana, Montana, and South Carolina have also instructed school districts to ignore the rule and have indicated possible legal actions, per Education Week.
“We’ve already heard back from a lot of districts that are very pleased that we stood in front of them in this dictate from the federal government. We’re very proud of our districts that are holding the line, and we will never allow Joe Biden to control our schools and indoctrinate our kids.”
“Our young girls deserve these experiences, and they shouldn’t have them ripped away from some activists in Washington, D.C., who want to use the power of the federal government to impose radical gender theory on our state. I will continue to keep you all updated as we continue to move swiftly and aggressively against this overreach.”
A freight train at the New Mexico-Arizona state line caught fire on Friday after derailing. The I-40 highway next to the fire was closed in both directions, affecting trucks that use that route for the transportation of goods. Vehicles were being directed to alternate routes.
According to the New Mexico State Police, they told CBS that the fire was still burning on Saturday morning.
The train contained 35 cars in total with 6 of them that were transporting propane, which is highly flammable. Early footage of the wreckage and fire were from drivers who were passing by.
A freight train carrying fuel derailed and caught fire Friday near the Arizona-New Mexico state line, forcing the closure of an interstate highway that serves as a key trucking route.
As of Saturday morning, the fire was still burning, a public information officer for the New Mexico State Police told CBS News.
About 35 of the cars carrying “mixed freight” had derailed, officials said Saturday. Six of those cars contained propane.
“No injuries were reported in the midday train wreck near Lupton, Arizona. BNSF Railway spokesperson Lena Kent said company personnel were on site working to clear the wreckage. Kent said the cause of the derailment is under investigation,” CBS News reported.
A truck stop and people that lived nearby were evacuated as a precaution. Wind conditions were carrying heavy smoke while firefighters were responding to the emergency. Fire crews were also using air monitoring and other logistics to help monitor the fire. Passenger train Amtrak had to cancel some of their routes as a result of the freight train derailment.
Even with alternate routes, the closure of the I-40 also caused a major backup for approximately 10 miles.
Emory University economics professor Caroline Fohlin went viral this week with video of her arrest as police cleared an illegal campus ‘occupy’ protest by Hamas supporters Thursday in Atlanta, Georgia. The shocking video of the female professor being forcibly taken to the ground by a police officer who needed a second officer to control the resisting Fohlin and then her hitting her head on the sidewalk was reposted and viewed millions of times worldwide.
Fohlin was one of two professors arrested at the protest Thursday. The other was Noëlle McAfee, the chair of Emory’s philosophy department.
Emory University economics professor Caroline Fohlin, official photo.Screen image from arrest of Emory University professor Caroline Fohlin for allegedly assaulting a police officer during a campus protest, via Atlanta News First/YouTube, April 25, 2024.
Fohlin appeared in court on Friday where she was freed on $50 bond. Fohlin’s attorney Gregory Clement issued a statement Friday after her release stating she was not a protester and denying the charges against her, reported the Atlanta Journal-Constitution (scroll down) (excerpt):
All 23 people arrested at Thursday’s protest at Emory have been released from the Dekalb County Jail, records show.
Defendants were released on bond by 6:25 p.m., with all of them except two being released on signature bonds, which are cashless bonds usually used for minor or nonviolent offenses. Bonds were granted to the defendants Friday in magistrate court.
Among the first to be released Friday afternoon was Emory economics professor Caroline Fohlin, who is a tenured professor at the university. Fohlin was granted a $50 bond on a charge of simple battery against a police officer and disorderly conduct. Her arrest was caught on camera and went viral on social media.
“Caroline Fohlin was not a protester at Emory on April 25,” her attorney Gregory Clement said. “She emerged from her office, concerned only about the treatment of students on the quad. She looks forward to vigorously defending the accusations against her in court.”
Video clip of Fohlin admitting to hitting a police officer, “I impulsively hit him on the head very lightly to get his attention and they grabbed me and threw me to the ground and arrested me.”
Longer video posted by Atlanta News First of the arrest and Fohlin’s on camera admission. Fohlin said she was concerned for the safety of a protester who was being arrested, claiming she saw the officer’s knee on his neck and was trying get the officer’s attention. Fohlin asked the person recording her detention to call her husband John to help her.
Noëlle McAfee, the chair of the Emory Philosophy Department, spoke to 11Alive’s Brittany Kleinpeter about her arrest that, in the last 24 hours, has been broadcast worldwide.
She said she first saw a young protester thrown to the ground by officers, who were “pummeling them, just pummeling and pummeling.”
“The mother in me said ‘stop. Stop.’ And I made sure to stand four feet away from them, standing still, nonconfrontational, I said, ‘stop’ — one of the cops stood up and got right in front of me and said, ‘Ma’am, you need to step back, you need to step back,'” McAfee, a professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences, said. “And I was watching them pummel somebody, I said, ‘no.’ And they arrested me.”
Noelle McAfee, chair of Emory University’s philosophy department, said she’s been concerned for the past year about Emory “clamping down on student dissent and spaces for expressing their ideas.” McAfee was detained after a Thursday protest and ticketed, but she was not booked into the DeKalb County jail.
She said the reaction to recent demonstrations by the university delegitimized and dismissed student voices, noting the characterization that protestors were outside actors and antisemitic.
“Calling in the Atlanta police is escalating things. Those are the true outside agitators,” she said.
A small peaceful, protest was reportedly held Saturday at Emory with no arrests.
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (WISH) — At least 33 people were arrested during a Thursday rally at Indiana University’s Dunn Meadow in support of Palestine, law enforcement agencies tell News 8.
The people were arrested for having structures, including tents, at their protest. IU said this violates a university policy and directed News 8 to this link.
Dunn Meadow is designated as a gathering spot for “expression on all subjects,” according to a policy listed under the Office of the Provost.
“The protest started Thursday morning in Dunn Meadow, a park which happens to be across the street from Chabad House of Bloomington, a resource for Jewish people on the campus,” WISHTV 8 reported.
Although the First Amendment to the United States Constitution protects free speech, a gathering that is not peaceful does not fall under its confines.
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.” First Amendment to the US Constitution.
Numerous riots and chaos have been spreading to many college campuses. Cal Poly Humboldt shut down its campus on Friday after pro-Hamas agitators took over the college president’s office.
Columbia University, with its Hamas agitators, has become so dangerous that in-person classes were canceled this past Monday. The campus has become very unsafe for Jewish students.
This is the current climate of college education. Chaos and calls for violence have replaced learning and critical thinking.
Feds on parade: Patriot Front members march in Charleston, West Virginia.
It must be another FBI freshman pledge weekend.
The Patriot Front “white supremacist” group went marching in Charleston, West Virginia this weekend.
They found a drummer for this weekend’s march and they were chanting something but it was hard to understand.
So these a$$holes from Patriot Front just marched through our beautiful town. While I support their 1st amendment right to PEACEFUL assembly…I also support our right to flip them off! pic.twitter.com/v1pox3xpEx
FEDS? The Patriot Front holds itself out as a supremacist organization but most believe it to be a honeypot organized and funded by the Feds to entrap disgruntled Americans. The group (100 strong) marched through Charleston WV. Strangely there was no police presence. pic.twitter.com/zt0lKOnmsM
This sounds about right: You know they’re feds because the mainstream media has absolutely no interest in outing them.
How can you be sure they are Feds?

Wyoming Governor Mark Gordon recently vetoed an amendment to the Secretary of State’s election procedures manual that would require proof of state residency to vote.
According to Wyoming Secretary of State Chuck Gray, “The law would also “provide uniformity and clarity concerning providing evidence of U.S. citizenship when registering to vote.”
The Secretary of State said the Governor’s veto will make it “easier for illegal aliens and non-residents to illegally vote” and called the move “deeply disturbing” in a statement.
Gray slammed the Governor in an X post, saying, “With his veto of our proposed rules, Gov. Gordon is now enabling Biden and the most radical leftists in America who are trying to help illegal immigrants vote in our elections.”
This comes as Biden’s historic open border crisis rages on and flyers instructing illegal immigrants to vote for Joe Biden in the forthcoming U.S. election have been reportedly distributed at a non-governmental organization (NGO) in Mexico, according to an investigation by The Oversight Project, a watchdog initiative linked to the Heritage Foundation.
As The Gateway Pundit recently reported, Arizona’s lawless Governor, Katie Hobbs, who was installed by a rigged election, vetoed a similar law earlier this week in a state that’s at the forefront of Biden’s open border. Hobbs vetoed the legislation, claiming it “creates additional, unnecessary barriers for individuals registering to vote.”
Likewise, Governor Gordon claimed this law would create "voter confusion and inadvertent disenfranchisement."
In a letter to Gray, Gordon said, “I do not believe it is within the scope of authority delegated to the Secretary of State by law.” Gray, however, says this is untrue as “Wyoming statute not only allows for the rule, but actually calls for it.
"W.S. 22-1- 102(a)(xxvii) expressly defines the registration process as requiring ‘verification of the name and voter information of a qualified elector.’"
RNC election attorney Christina Bobb responded to Gray's statement on X, "What the heck is the Wyoming Governor doing?!"
Wyoming Secretary of State Chuck Gray released the following statement on the Governor's veto on April 12:
Secretary Gray Expresses Disagreement with Governor’s Veto of Rules to Require Proof of Wyoming Residency to Vote
CHEYENNE, WY – On April 12, 2024, Governor Mark Gordon vetoed amendments to Chapter 2 of the Secretary of State’s Election Procedures that would have required acceptable identification for proof of identity, including proof of Wyoming residency, when registering to vote in Wyoming, as well as to provide uniformity and clarity concerning providing evidence of U.S. citizenship when registering to vote.
“Wyoming elections should be decided by Wyomingites, NOT illegal immigrants,” Secretary of State Chuck Gray said. “Governor Gordon’s veto makes it easier for illegal aliens and non-residents to illegally vote, which is deeply disturbing.”
“Wyoming statute not only allows for the rule, but actually calls for it. W.S. 22-1- 102(a)(xxvii) expressly defines the registration process as requiring ‘verification of the name and voter information of a qualified elector.’ The rule provided for a process to verify an individual’s attestation that they are a resident of Wyoming. And it also fulfilled the statutory requirement that no person would be allowed to register to vote if their identification contains any indication that they are not a U.S. citizen.”
“I am especially troubled by the Governor’s adoption of the radical left’s argument that Wyoming has no real cases of voter fraud to address. As I indicated during our meeting with the Governor, our office has worked with county clerks on this very issue just last year, cancelling a registration of an illegal alien in Campbell County who illegally voted in the 2020 election. Every vote by an illegal alien disenfranchises the vote of Wyoming residents. These rules were a commonsense solution to stopping voter fraud in Wyoming.”
“These rules undertook a thorough vetting process, and received overwhelming support from the people of Wyoming during the public comment period. They should have been signed. I will continue to fight for election integrity measures to protect and improve our elections.”
District Attorney Sandra Doorley is at the center of controversy following a traffic stop where she appeared to leverage her status as Monroe County’s DA to evade law enforcement procedures.
The incident, captured on an officer’s body-worn camera, shows Doorley dismissing the reason for the stop and insinuating her legal authority would nullify the traffic violation.
Doorley was recorded going 55 mph in a 35 mph zone on Monday evening on Phillips Road. Instead of pulling over, Doorley continued driving to her residence on Fallen Leaf Terrace, about a mile away, while an officer followed with active lights and siren.
The video, released by the Town of Webster, depicts a defiant Doorley who, at several points during the encounter, reminded the officers of her position.
Doorley argued she had been on a call with Webster Police Chief Dennis Kohlmeier to assure the police officer she was not a threat. However, the video shows her using her phone to demand Kohlmeier convince the officer to leave her be.
The encounter escalated when Doorley refused to provide her ID, instead handing the officer her phone with Kohlmeier on the line.
“Listen, I know the law better than you. Would you just leave? Would you just leave me alone?”
“I don’t really care. I don’t really care. You know what? If you give me a traffic ticket, that’s fine. I’m the one who prosecutes it.”
“I’m going to prosecute myself,” Doorley said. “Do you know what I’ll do with the ticket?” She then laughed.
Police: So why didn’t you just stop like you’re supposed to?
Doorley: Because I didn’t feel like stopping on Philip’s Road.
Police: That’s not your choice.
Doorley: Well, I made it my choice.
Police: Okay. Now you made it a bigger deal than it needed to be.
Doorley: It’s a really bigger deal when people start coming, it becomes a much bigger deal.
Police: Well, you caused that, Sandra. What do you want us to do? Not do our job because it’s you? You broke another law because of that, right? You should know better… That’s an arrestable offense, Sandra. You know this.
WATCH:
NEW: New York District Attorney Sandra Doorley runs from the police after an officer tried pulling her over, says she should get special treatment because she is the DA.
Doorley issued a statement committing to the rule of law and expressing her intention to accept responsibility for her actions. She claimed to have pled guilty and submitted the ticket to Webster Town Court.
“On Monday, April 22, 2024, I was driving home following a busy day at work. I admit that I was not paying attention to my speed on Phillips Road in the Town of Webster. Less than half a mile from my neighborhood, I noticed a Webster Police car behind me. Once I realized that the intention of the car was to pull me over, I called the Webster Police Chief to inform him that I was not a threat and that I would speak to the Officer at my house down the street. The Webster Police Officer followed me to my house and issued me a speeding ticket for my speed of 55mph in a 35mph zone. I acknowledged that I was speeding and I accepted the ticket. By 1:00PM the following day, I pled guilty and sent the ticket to the Webster Town Court because I believe in accepting responsibility for my actions and had no intention of using my position to receive a benefit. Nobody, including your District Attorney, is above the rule of law, even traffic laws. Anybody who knows me understands without a doubt that I have dedicated my entire 33 year career to the safety of this community. My work to ensure the safety and respect of law enforcement is well proven time and time again. I stand by my work and stand by my commitment to the public safety of Monroe County.”
Before switching to the GOP in 2015, Doorley was a member of the Democratic Party.
Katie Hobbs (left), former Governor RINO Doug Ducey (right)
Katie Hobbs on Tuesday vetoed Senate Bill 1414 which would have increased penalties for repeat offenders of Arizona’s organized retail theft law.
The legislation would deem that “a person who is convicted of a third or subsequent violation of organized retail theft with the intent to resell or trade the stolen merchandise to be sentenced as a category two repetitive offender,” as opposed to current law, which classifies repeat offenders as a category one repetitive offender “for the second and subsequent offenses.” Category two offenders receive harsher sentences.
Hobbs wrote in a veto letter, “Today, I vetoed Senate Bill 1414. I have signed Sen. Gowan’s bill SB1411 establishing an Organized Retail Theft Task Force in the Attorney General’s office that will be critical to adequately and appropriately combat this issue. Their first report is due July 1, 2025 and I look forward to reviewing their policy recommendations and working together to find balanced policies for this matter.”
However, the bill she signed into law only establishes a task force in the Attorney General’s office. It does nothing to punish repeat offenders like SB1414.
Requires a person who is convicted of a third or subsequent violation of organized retail theft with the intent to resell or trade the stolen merchandise to be sentenced as a category two repetitive offender.
Background
Current statute classifies a person who is convicted of multiple felony offenses that were not committed on the same occasion, but that are either consolidated for trial purposes or are not historical prior felony convictions, as a first time felony offender for the first offense and a category one repetitive offender for the second and subsequent offenses. A person who is at least 18 years of age or who has been tried as an adult must be sentenced as: 1) a category two repetitive offender if the person stands convicted of a felony and has one historical prior felony conviction; or 2) a category three repetitive offender if the person stands convicted of a felony and has two or more historical prior felony convictions (A.R.S. § 13-703).
A person commits organized retail theft if the person acting alone or in conjunction with another person: 1) removes merchandise from a retail establishment without paying the purchase price with the intent to resell or trade the merchandise for money or other value; or 2) uses an artifice, instrument, container, device or other article to facilitate the removal of merchandise from a retail establishment without paying the purchase price. Organized retail theft is a class 4 felony (A.R.S. § 13-1819).
A category two repetitive offender who is convicted of organized retail theft carries a presumptive imprisonment sentence of 4.5 years and an aggravated imprisonment sentence of 7.5 years. The fine for a felony may be up to $150,000 (A.R.S. §§ 13-703 and 13-801).
There is no anticipated fiscal impact to the state General Fund associated with this legislation.
Provisions
Requires a person who is convicted of a third or subsequent violation of organized retail theft with the intent to resell or trade the stolen merchandise to be sentenced as a category two repetitive offender.
Becomes effective on the general effective date.
This is one of the ten measures Katie Hobbs rejected on Tuesday alone. As The Gateway Pundit reported, Hobbs vetoed several common-sense bills on Tuesday, including SB2581, which would require proof of residency to vote in Arizona elections; SB1129, which would protect homeowners by allowing them to remove an unlawful occupant or a “squatter” from their property; and SB1182, which would have protected girls’ showers from biological males in public K-12 schools.
Per Axios, Hobbs vetoed a total of 143 bills last year. As of Tuesday, she has vetoed 195 bills since taking office last January, shattering Democrat Janet Napolitano’s previous record of 181 vetoes during an entire four-year term.
Other bills the governor rejected Tuesday include:
— SB 1340 prohibiting the investment of public funds in any state-owned or company domiciled within a “foreign adversary’’ as determined by the U.S. Secretary of Commerce under federal law. That includes China, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Russia and Venezuelan politician Nicolas Maduro. It also would bar putting money into a bank that has a principal place of business in a foreign adversary.
— SB 1060 which would have given candidates for federal office the ability to send an observer to watch the ballot-counting process. That is now limited to those designated by political parties.
— HB 2328 would have allowed mobile food vendors to set up on private property in residential areas, something now prohibited. Rep. Kevin Payne, R-Peoria, said it included safeguards, including requiring the permission of the property owner who would have to remain at the site.
At one point Biden said he considered jumping off a bridge after his wife Neilia and daughter Naomi were killed in a car accident in 1972.
“I used to sit there and think to myself, I think I’ll take out a bottle of Scotch,” Biden told Howard Stern.
“I actually thought about you know, you don’t have to be crazy to commit suicide. If you’ve been at the top of a mountain you think it’s never going to be there again,” he said.
“And just a brief moment, I thought maybe I just go to the Delaware Memorial Bridge and jump… but I had two kids,” he added.
AUDIO:
NEW: President Biden says he once considered driving to the Delaware Memorial Bridge and jumping off it to k*ll himself.
Biden said he considered su*cide after the death of his wife and daughter during an interview with Howard Stern.
In a previous version of this story, Biden told CNN’s Gloria Borger that he took out a bottle of gin after his wife and daughter died.
“I thought about it, not doing it. I thought about what it would be like just to go to the Delaware Memorial Bridge and just jump off and end it all,” Biden told Gloria Borger in 2020.
“I don’t drink at all. I’ve never had a drink in my life, but I remember taking out a fifth of, I think it was gin, and put it on the kitchen table. But I couldn’t even make myself take a drink. What saved me was really my boys,” Biden said to Gloria Borger.
Former President Donald Trump blasted Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in a series of Truth Social Friday night posts.
Trump said he would even “take Biden” over RFK and accused him of being a Democrat plant.
“RFK Jr. is a Democrat ‘Plant,’ a Radical Left Liberal who’s been put in place in order to help Crooked Joe Biden, the Worst President in the History of the United States, get Re-Elected,” Trump began.
“A Vote for Junior’ would essentially be a WASTED PROTEST VOTE, that could swing either way, but would only swing against the Democrats if Republicans knew the true story about him. Junior’ is totally Anti-Gun, an Extreme Environmentalist who makes the Green New Scammers look Conservative, a Big Time Taxer and Open Border Advocate, and Anti-Military/Vet…”
Trump said that the “radicalized” Kennedy family would “never allow him to be a Republican,” and that his primary funder is his vice presidential candidate that “nobody ever heard of.”
In a third post, Trump wrote, “I lived with RFK Jr. in New York and watched him convince Governor Cuomo to make Environmental moves that were outright NASTY. Upstate New York was not allowed to drill or frack as Ohio, Pennsylvania, and others ripped off New York Energy. Because of this, prices have skyrocketed all over that part of the Country, but especially Upstate New York and New England. Their Energy Costs are the highest in the U.S., with the exception of California, run by Gavin Newscum, the Worst Governor in the State’s History.”
In the ultimate slam, Trumo concluded by saying, “I’d even take Biden over Junior’, because our Country would last a year or two longer prior to collapse – But it would be dead either way. His Views on Vaccines are FAKE, as is everything else about his Candidacy. Let the Democrats have RFK Jr. They deserve him!”
Kennedy responded to Trump in a post on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, by challenging him to a debate.
When frightened men take to social media they risk descending into vitriol, which makes them sound unhinged. President Trump’s rant against me is a barely coherent barrage of wild and inaccurate claims that should best be resolved in the American tradition of presidential debate.…
— Robert F. Kennedy Jr (@RobertKennedyJr) April 27, 2024
“Instead of lobbing poisonous bombs from the safety of his bunker, let’s hear President Trump defend his record to me mano-a-mano by respectful, congenial debate,” Kennedy wrote.
Whitmer was chosen to announce the Detroit Lions fourth-round pick, confirming that the event had set an all-time attendance record.
“It has been a historic week in the great city of Detroit,” Whitmer said. “We have shown the world what the Motor City is all about. It is my honor to announce that the 2024 NFL Draft has now broken the all-time record. 700,000 and counting. So, thank you NFL fans and thank you Detroit.”

Such a reception does not bode particularly well for Whitmer’s future political ambitions, with many liberal commentators touting her as a future presidential candidate.
Despite positioning herself as a supposed centrist, Whitmer was notorious for her fascistic approach to COVID pandemics and has actively pushed far-left ideas such as Critical Race Theory across Michigan’s schools.
Tennessee Governor Bill Lee signed legislation on Friday allowing teachers and staff to carry handguns on school grounds.
The bill, HB 1202/SB 1325, applies to K-12 public school campuses and is effective immediately.
“What’s important is that we give districts tools and the option to use a tool that will keep their children safe,” Lee told reporters before signing the bill into law.
“There are folks across the state who disagree on the way forward, but we all agree that we should keep our kids safe.”
According to a report from the Associated Press, “The bill would bar disclosing which employees are carrying guns beyond school administrators and police, including to parents of students and even other teachers. A principal, school district and law enforcement agency would have to agree to let staff carry guns.”
Employees wanting to carry a weapon must pass a background check and psychiatric evaluation. Additionally, they must complete 40 hours of basic training for school policing and 40 hours of Peace Officer’s Standards and Training.
The bill had prompted massive protests at the state capital, including a dramatic “die in” demonstration.

As they were being removed, spectators chanted:
“Vote them out!”
“No more silence, end gun violence!”
“What do we want? Gun control! When do we want it? Now!”
Those who support the legislation have argued that the bill will considerably help rural areas with limited police capabilities.
Republican Sen. Ken Yager had argued, “It’s time that we look at the facts of the bill, that we are not trying to shoot a student, but protect a student from an active shooter whose sole purpose is to get into that school and kill people.”
Some college campuses that have reached their limit with Hamas agitators are taking action to remove tents and anti-Israel flags. Among the allies to the police at ASU was a group of local guys helping with the clean up.
As these guys were helping the police, you could hear the agitators complaining and harassing them.
“We’ve got the white frat boys throwing away protester’s belongings and we’ve got the pigs in brown doing nothing,” an anti-Israel agitator shouted.

Earlier in the day, the police at the ASU campus were tearing down tents that were involved with the unruly Hamas agitators. They were met with anti-Israel chants with some words difficult to understand since they were shouting.
TEMPE, AZ — Nearly 70 people were arrested early Saturday morning amid a pro-Palestinian protest at Arizona State University that started Friday over the Israel-Hamas conflict.
ASU confirmed the arrests Saturday morning, saying the group set up an unauthorized encampment in violation of university policy.
“Rogue cops get out of the way we know you’re Israel’s (incoherent word),” agitators shouted.

ASU also turned on the sprinklers in the field to try and deter the agitators. They responded by putting items or bags over them to prevent them from getting sprayed.
One student was hitting a plastic container with a stick while they were chanting. They made reference to liberation, but they were difficult to understand since they were shouting. A good portion of them were wearing masks either to avoid being seen or an obsession with Covid virtue signaling.

The White House Correspondents Association Dinner being held Saturday night is a D.C. institution first held in 1921 that awards reporters and raises scholarship money for journalism students. In recent decades the dinner has become a monster weekend bash for the media and the government officials they cover. Pre and after dinner parties and brunches bookend the dinner that has come to be known as the Nerd Prom. Media outlets vie with each other to get the best celebrity and government guests for their tables.
The dinner is traditionally attended by the president (since 1924)–who is roasted by a comedian (except Obama) and then makes his own speech written by joke writers. However that tradition was broken when President Trump refused to play the fool to the assembled government and media conspirators conniving to drive him from office. Trump did not attend the dinner once in the four years of his presidency, becoming the first president who did not attend at least one dinner. (Trump famously attended the 2011 dinner where Obama torched him, making some think that provided motivation for his 2016 presidential run. Video at end of article.)
Joe Biden addresses the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner, April 29, 2023, screen image via C-SPAN.
This year’s dinner will be attended by senior Trump campaign advisor Chris LaCivita, according to People magazine which published a list of celebrity guests for the dinner. LaCivita is a guest of CNN, as is senior Biden campaign official Mike Donilon.
NBC’s table is stocked with senior Biden officials: Jeff Zients, White House chief of staff; Alejandro Mayorkas, secretary of Homeland Security; Janet Yellen, secretary of the Treasury; Bill Burns, CIA director; Ben LaBolt, White House communications director; Lisa Monaco, U.S. deputy attorney general.
But now, with Trump routinely leading Joe Biden in polling about six months from election day, the Democratic Party sent a press release to reporters this week warning this could be the “last” Correspondents’ Dinner if Trump is elected (hint, hint.)
Democrat rapid response director Alex Floyd posted, “NEW: @DNCWarRoom hopes everyone has a good time this weekend, because if Donald Trump wins in November, this Saturday could also be known as the *last* White House Correspondents’ Dinner. (But we’ll make sure that does not happen).”
NEW: @DNCWarRoom hopes everyone has a good time this weekend, because if Donald Trump wins in November, this Saturday could also be known as the *last* White House Correspondents’ Dinner.
Happy White House Correspondents’ Dinner! (And We’ll Make Sure It’s Not the Last)
APRIL 25, 2024
Ahead of the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, DNC Rapid Response Director Alex Floyd released the following statement:
“We hope everyone has a good time this weekend, because if Donald Trump wins in November, this Saturday could also be known as the last White House Correspondents’ Dinner. To state the obvious: Trump is a thin-skinned narcissist who – despite spending seemingly every waking moment glued to his seat consuming cable news – is constantly attacking the free press and unable to handle a little good-natured ribbing. He skipped the White House Correspondents’ Dinner every single year he was in office because of his deep-seated insecurities and pathetic desperation to be liked by the same people he rails against – and that was before he outright banned members of his administration from attending at all. Fun and jokes aside this weekend, Saturday is also a reminder of what’s at stake with an angry, vengeful Trump on the ballot. He may be a punchline, but he is also a sad, vindictive wannabe authoritarian who shows no respect for the First Amendment – or the Fourth Estate.”
The press release then went on to list Trump bashing media reports to remind reporters suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome what life was like for them under a Trump presidency.
Trump is too thin-skinned and insecure to handle a little teasing…

Politico: “[Trump] returned to scathing attacks on the news media just one week after a gunman killed five journalists at a Maryland newspaper. He derided the press as ‘fake news,’ ‘bad people’ and ‘so damn dishonest.’ ‘They’re fake,’ he said, pointing at the press area in the arena. ‘These are really bad people.’”
Associated Press: “Trump says media is ‘Enemy of the People’ after shooting, bomb plot”
New York Times: “In urging the crowd to vote for Representative Greg Gianforte, who is running for re-election and who was sentenced to anger management classes and community service for assaulting a reporter last spring, Mr. Trump jokingly warned the crowd to ‘never wrestle him.’ ‘I had heard he body-slammed a reporter,’ Mr. Trump said, noting that he was initially concerned that Mr. Gianforte would lose in a special election last May. ‘I said, ‘Wait a minute. I know Montana pretty well; I think it might help him.’ And it did.’ ‘Anybody that can do a body-slam,’ the president added, ‘that’s my kind of guy.’”
Reports like those above tend to create more Trump voters, even if they drive the likes of Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski to early morning fits of rage.
Note: Starting in 1999 and running straight through the early 2010s, this writer protested liberal media bias outside the dinner with the FReepers from Free Republic. Our gathering, while direct and passionate, will likely be looked back on with relief after Hamas supporting communists and Islamists protest this year’s dinner.
That’s so cool you remembered me and that story. Thanks for jogging my memory. Great having drinks with you guys that night as I typed out the story in the bar, as I recall. I’m surprised that story survived, as THR purged a lot of my old (and best!) stories a while ago.
The Pentagon confirmed on Wednesday that the US secretly sent long-range Army Tactical Missile System to Ukraine as part of the $61 billion dollar package passed by Democrats, RINOs, Speaker Johnson and signed by Joe Biden.
Mike Johnson, RINOs and Democrats obviously are hoping that the War in Ukraine escalates and expands.
These warmongers have no desire for peace. ABC News reported:
The missiles, also known as ATACMS, have a maximum range of 186 miles. Ukraine first used them over the past week, two U.S. officials said.
In October, America provided Ukraine with mid-range versions of the ATACMS, which have a minimum range of 43 miles. But Ukraine continued to press the Biden administration to provide longer-range versions.
The White House’s national security adviser, Jake Sullivan, told reporters on Wednesday afternoon that in February, President Joe Biden directed his team to provide Ukraine with a “significant” number of ATACMS missiles for use inside Ukrainian territory — against Russian invaders.
On Saturday, Steve Bannon and Ben Harnwell discussed this explosive revelation.
Obviously, Americans did not know about these long-range missiles being part of the $61 billion deal. Did Mike Johnson know about this? Did the RINOs? Why did they hide this from American taxpayers? Why would they send these offensive weapons to war-torn Ukraine?
This puts the spotlight on Mike Johnson: What did he know and when did he know it?
Steve Bannon: Ben, I’m very disturbed about Johnson and what he knew and when he knew it about this criminal conspiracy, this report of Jordan. Folks, this is going to blow up over the weekend on Monday. Just work with us on this. It’s got to blow up. But I got another problem about this. I got another very big problem, Harnwell, that only you can help me out with. They’re now saying, and the Biden’s bragging about it, that we gave secretly without notification of guidance, we secretly gave the long-range missiles to the Zelinskyy regime, unbeknownst to the American people, but that can launch and go into Russia.
So the American people are now in a… Actually, we’re now driving a war, a physical kinetic war with the Russian people. We gave long-range missiles silently. Now, my question is, did Johnson know that? Was he briefed on that? If he was briefed on that, why didn’t he tell anybody before we had this vote? And if he wasn’t briefed on it, why was “Polly Pockets?” Why was this information held back from “Polly Pockets?” Get me up to date on this because they’re trying to drive the American people to be in a shooting war with the Russian people.
Ben Harnwell: Steve, good morning to you. Well, this is exactly the question. What did Speaker Mike Johnson know, and when did he know it before signing off this $61 billion? This is a fundamental question.
We’re talking about the ATACMs missiles here, which have a range of around 300 kilometers and can attack deep into Russian territory. This, of course, is against the official administration, the public administration policy. The public Biden administration policy is that they are encouraging the Ukrainian government to use the munitions and armaments and Patriot defense missiles solely in a defensive capacity. The public position of the Biden administration is that they are not encouraging the Kyiv regime to attack Russia inside Russian territory. This is Absolutely important here – with America’s European partners here. And of course, bringing alongside the American people to support the administration, support which, of course, is dropping by the month.
So the question here for the Speaker is to say what he knew and when he knew it, because as I see it, there are two possibilities here. Either he’s been used as a by the Biden administration, or he knew that the administration was giving these long-range missiles to Ukraine before the $61 billion…
I wonder if this made it into the briefing things that Mike Johnson was apparently had access to before having his road to Damascus moment and swiveling on a dime and saying he’s now going to support the 61 billion.
…Did he know? Then did he know before before he U-turned on this? That the Biden administration is perfectly aware of the fact that the administration realizes that Kyiv doesn’t have a plan on to win this war. So you ask yourself, what is this all about? – What is this all about? Why is this $61 billion so important? And why did Mike Johnson support it? Because this war in Ukraine needs to stay on two legs until November.
Steve, I’ve said this before. This is what it’s about. It’s about stopping Trump. It doesn’t matter how many young Ukrainians they’re going to now be drafting in from Europe, sending them to the front line to die. This war cannot to be allowed to implode before November.
Mike Johnson needs to come clean – What did he know and when did he know it?
And, why did he hide this from the American people?
Cara Castronuova, the former kickboxer and investigative journalist, who has waged a campaign for Senate in New York against the Uniparty, will be going to court on Monday again to contest New York’s signature requirement procedures. Castronuova’s case raises serious equal protection and due process issues about the integrity of the electoral process.
In a case that parallels President Trump’s own criminal trial currently underway in lower Manhattan, a political persecution carried out by Alvin Bragg, Letitia James, and Joe Biden’s Department of Justice, Castronuova’s case implicates similar issues and many of the same key players.
“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”
There is nothing the establishment uniparty fears more than candidates they cannot control. Candidates that have their own moral compass.
If the party did not nominate & back you, you owe them nothing and they know it.… pic.twitter.com/xXsqcTPhR2
Of course, much like with Trump’s case, “Big Tish” James is actively working in the background – aided and abetted by State GOP Chairman, Ed Cox, who serves as controlled opposition for James’ weaponized system of justice scheme. Cox, nor any of his lackeys in the New York State Republican delegation in Congress, have yet rallied in support of President Trump by appearing in person at the courthouse to condemn the injustices committed there at the behest of the State Uniparty.
Castronuova, by sharp contrast, showed her face and helped rally Trump supporters on the ground last week at the commencement of the trial right outside the courthouse. She has unabashedly stood in the 45th President’s corner since day one and continues to do so – putting virtually everything on the line, including her livelihood and reputation, to stand on principle.
Her support for President Trump and the political persecution being waged against him is emboldened by her own court proceedings and lawsuits against the State Uniparty, which are as hostile if not even more so, against her for shining a light on their corruption – and taking their archaic ways to task.
In New York, the Party controls the entire candidate selection process. They handpick a Uniparty shill, like Mike Sapraicone, who does not have to waste time, energy, or money to collect signatures himself. They bully county party chairs to get everyone in line with the party agenda at a closed-door convention. What happens at the party convention is not made public.
They do everything behind the scenes, stealthily operating like the corrupt party bosses at the height of the Tammany Hall days of yore, making deals in proverbial “smoke filled rooms.” They actively select against candidates, like Cara, who are America First in disposition, and unwaveringly loyal to President Trump – and unafraid to advocate for the hot-button issues, like election integrity and the weaponized system of justice, that galvanize his base.
New York State is quickly being driven to hell – by policies endorsed by far-left Democrats in Albany, which drives the party leftward, as Republicans are kowtowed into submission. The State’s only chance of reversing these trends is by electing bold leaders like Castronuova, who follow in President Trump’s footsteps by not just pledging to drain the swamp on the campaign trail but putting real skin in the game to prove their bona-fides.
A natural born fighter who has overcome great challenges in life – she lost both her parents at a very young age – Castronuova is no stranger to adversity. She understands what it takes to go against the tide and take on trenchant power structures directly.
While she faces a mountain of opposition, she has also galvanized the MAGA grassroots across the State – a noble message that has resonated with Republican leaders in Albany. She has received the support from Mayor Giuliani and former Congressman Santos, who both have in their own ways butted heads with the Uniparty and faced very real personal and financial costs for doing so.
She has also electrified hundreds of thousands of disenchanted New Yorkers, of all ideological and partisan affiliations – belonging to every demographic, across all regions of the State.
In her cause they see their own plight and disenfranchisement – and her campaign, above anyone else’s in recent decades, has rekindled some hope for turning New York State around.
President Trump believes New York can be in play this November, a bold prediction that has been roused by his court appearances and recent public events across the city in recent weeks.
His pathway to victory would be made much easier, however, if he were supported on the ballot by true America First candidates like Cara Castronuova, who have been unreservedly loyal to President Trump since the moment he descended the golden escalator at Trump Tower in 2015.
Only those with real skin in the game can best take on the Uniparty – Albany is as corrupt as Washington, and its swamp needs to be drained just as badly.
That is why Castronuova’s lawsuit is so important – it is a cause that is much bigger than her own bid for the Senate. It represents perhaps the last chance of reversing the fortune of New York, once the greatest state in the union, which in recent years has been under siege by subversive, radical left wing forces – and a weak Republican opposition party, that has enabled those radical policies to take place.
It is time for a revival, and that is why it is imperative that Castronuova gets placed on the ballot. She is the only one who can expose the Uniparty, take down their hand-selected puppet candidate in Mike Sapraicone, and have a chance of sending a Republican to the Senate for the first time in decades this November – when she goes against Kirsten Gillibrand.
New York union members greet Trump in Manhattan ahead of DA Alvin Bragg’s political witch hunt trial
The Trump campaign is apparently now using the viral video of a New York construction worker telling Joe Biden “F*ck you” in a news interview to respond to media inquiries about Biden’s support from union leaders.
They should make it a commercial.
CBS published a story on Friday highlighting that “nearly all the major labor unions have endorsed Mr. Biden,” but “labor leaders still anticipate a significant portion of organized labor could support Trump.” Many union members are expressing their frustration over the rising cost of living and inflation across the country, and liberal members say they’re “worried” about Biden’s chances in November.
Per the report, “Asked for comment, the campaign shared twovideos of union members voicing support for Trump after he visited a construction site in New York City ahead of his ongoing hush money trial, with one worker saying he’d tell Mr. Biden ‘f**k you.'”
As The Gateway Pundit recently reported, President Trump visited construction workers at the site of the 1,388-foot-tall JP Morgan office building going up at 270 Park Avenue in New York City Thursday morning before heading to court. Trump was well received by a large crowd of workers and others who heard about the early morning (6:30 a.m.) campaign stop.
Among those was a construction worker who told a reporter he is “not at all surprised” by the high level of support for President Trump in Manhattan, and “It’s turning. It’s Trump’s turn again.” When asked, “What’s your message to Joe Biden,” without hesitating, the construction worker gave the perfect response: “F*ck you!”
Joe Biden recently complained about seeing Trump signs with “F*** Biden” and routinely getting flipped off by children when he travels the country:
The Gateway Pundit reported that President Trump is narrowing in on Joe Biden even in the most liberal areas of the country due to his strong record on jobs and the economy. Meanwhile, with Bidenomics inflation rose to 3.7% in the first quarter while GDP dropped faster than expected in the first quarter of 2024 – squeezing consumers who are already strapped in the Biden economy.
In New York, Trump is expected to be the first President since 1988 to end the Democrats’ streak of winning by double digits in every presidential election, and maybe even the winner, according to new polling data.
New York union leader Bobby Bartels shared results from a poll he put out in his union, telling Fox, “President Trump is leading Joe Biden three to one on my presidential poll out of my 9,000 members right now.”
Maybe New York will tell Joe Biden, "F*ck you" this November.
Trump also leads Joe Biden in six of the seven key swing states that are expected to determine the 2024 Presidential Election, with 70% of poll respondents saying the United States economy is on the "wrong track." Additionally, 51% say they trust Trump more on the economy, while just 36% say Biden.
Despite the president's many union endorsements, labor leaders still anticipate a significant portion of organized labor could support Trump.
Labor members on Wednesday said they think the rematch between Mr. Biden and Trump will be "extremely" close, and that they've heard fellow union members in their communities express irritation about lingering inflation and the rising cost of living.
But the Trump campaign says voters' frustration with the economy means that Mr. Biden's labor union endorsements won't translate into unified support for Mr. Biden.
Asked for comment, the campaign shared twovideos of union members voicing support for Trump after he visited a construction site in New York City ahead of his ongoing hush money trial, with one worker saying he'd tell Mr. Biden "f**k you."
Trump national campaign spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt further told the outlet, "While Joe Biden receives endorsements from the union bosses who automatically support Democrats every election cycle, President Trump is proud to be whole-heartedly supported by the hardworking laborers who serve as the backbone of these unions."
Newly unsealed transcripts of a witness interview with a DOJ prosecutor further prove Trump was set up.
Judge Aileen Cannon ordered documents unsealed in Jack Smith’s classified documents case against Trump.
An unidentified witness told DOJ prosecutor Michael Thakur that after the Trump Administration ended, the General Services Administration (GSA) stored six pallets of boxes in Virginia. They eventually contacted Trump’s team and told them to come pick up the boxes.
These were the boxes that ended up having documents with “classified markings” on them. The boxes were dumped outside of DC in Virginia and then ended up at Mar-a-Lago.
This was a total setup.
So an entire pallet full of boxes that had been held by GSA somewhere outside of DC is dumped at Mar-a-Lago. Apparently these are the boxes that ended up containing papers with "classified markings."
I will double check indictment but I don't recall this event in the timeline: pic.twitter.com/H08oh4gkjI
Last year Tim Parlatore, an attorney for Trump, said GSA quickly packed up boxes at the end of Trump’s presidency and shipped them to Florida.
“When President Trump left office, there was little time to prepare for the outgoing transition from the presidency. Unlike his three predecessors, each of whom had over four years to prepare for their departure upon completion of their second term, President Trump had a much shorter time to wind up his administration,” Trump attorney Tim Parlatore wrote in a letter to the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence last April.
“White House staffers and General Service Administration (‘GSA’) employees quickly packed everything into boxes and shipped them to Florida. This was a stark change from the standard preparations made by GSA and National Archives and Records Administration (‘NARA’) for prior administrations.”
Machine gun-toting agents raided Mar-a-Lago in August 2022 and seized boxes of classified documents that were stored in a locker room.
A few months later US Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed Jack Smith as special counsel to investigate the classified documents stored at Mar-a-Lago.
Jack Smith indicted Trump on 37 federal counts in Miami last June for lawfully storing presidential records at his Mar-a-Lago estate which was protected by Secret Service agents.
Trump was charged with 31 counts under the Espionage Act of willful retention of national defense information and 6 other process crimes stemming from his conversations with his lawyer.
The House Judiciary Committee released a report on Thursday on Soros-funded Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg’s “unprecedented” multi-year investigation into former President Donald J. Trump after Bragg campaigned as the best candidate to go after the president.
The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office “allowed political motivations and animus to infect its prosecutorial discretion,” the House Judiciary Committee argued in a report Thursday, saying charges were brought against former President Trump employed a “dangerously low threshold” to prosecute “political opponents.”
The GOP-led committee released a 300-page report Thursday, exclusively obtained by Fox News Digital, titled “An Anatomy of a Political Prosecution: The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office Vendetta Against President Donald J. Trump.”
“The DANY has been investigating President Trump since at least 2018, searching for any legal theory on which to bring charges,” the report states. “These charges are normally misdemeanors subject to a two-year statute of limitations, but Bragg used a novel and untested legal theory—previously declined by federal prosecutors—to bootstrap the misdemeanor allegations as a felony, which extended the statute of limitations to five years, by alleging that records were falsified to conceal a second crime.”
Prosecutors revealed during the criminal trial this week that the alleged “second crime” was a violation of a New York law called “conspiracy to promote or prevent election.” Prosecutors will try to prove that the alleged conspiracy was to conceal a conspiracy to unlawfully promote his candidacy.
The report on Bragg’s investigation further references Mark Pomerantz’s influence on the case, including his “politicized reliance on convicted perjurer Michael Cohen” and his “personal animus towards and obsession with President Trump.”
Promerantz is a former senior prosecutor on the Manhattan DA’s team investigating Trump, who in 2022 resigned in protest after District Attorney Alvin Bragg ended the investigation and went on to write a book on the topic. In the book, he claims the investigation “developed evidence convincing us that Donald Trump had committed serious crimes.” Pomerantz resigned after Bragg, just weeks into his first term in office, decided not to seek an indictment of Trump at that time.
However, per the report, “Shortly after President Trump announced his White House run, the DANY pivoted back to what Pomerantz frequently referred to as the ‘zombie’ case that originated nearly five years ago.” The committee says the decision likely came after Bragg noticed “the acclaim that New York Attorney General Letitia James received from Democrats for bringing a civil action against President Trump, his children, and the Trump Organization.” This also came as Bragg was nearing the end of his first year in office after he made the campaign promise to get Trump. The report continues, “Bragg noted that he hoped ‘driving down gun violence and the population at Rikers while pushing ahead on the Trump investigation . . . [would] ‘neutralize’ the noise around him.’”
As The Gateway Pundit reported Bragg has raised nearly $1 Million since making good on his campaign promises to indict Trump.
The Judiciary Committee says that the attention and political benefits acquired by Bragg indicting President Trump has "led to copycat indictments by other politically motivated, popularly elected local prosecutors," in reference to Fulton County DA Fani Willis' RICO indictment against Trump and 18 co-defendants. "If state or local prosecutors like Bragg and Willis are allowed to engage in politically motivated prosecutions of former or current U.S. Presidents for personal acts, this could have a profound impact on how Presidents choose to exercise their official duties while in office."
The Committee concludes its report suggesting legislation to address politically motivated prosecutors, including Rep. Russell Fry's H.R. 2553, the No More Political Prosecutions Act, and Rep. Andy Biggs' H.R. 2582, the No Federal Funds for Political Prosecutions Act.
House Judiciary Committee released a summary of their 300-page report on X:
#ICYMI: Judiciary Republicans Release 300 Page Report on the Manhattan District Attorney's Office's Political Vendetta Against President Donald J. Trump
As revealed in former Special Assistant District Attorney Mark Pomerantz's self-serving book, People vs. Trump: An Insider's Account, since at least 2018, the DANY has weaponized the criminal justice system, scouring every aspect of President Trump's personal life and business affairs in the hopes of finding some legal basis—however far-fetched, novel, or convoluted—to bring charges against him. When one legal theory would not pan out, instead of discontinuing its politically motivated investigation, the DANY simply pivoted to a new theory, constantly searching for a crime prosecute President Trump. Pomerantz's book was part of a public pressure campaign to force District Attorney Alvin Bragg into action.
In April 2023, District Attorney Bragg succumbed to Pomerantz's pressure campaign, charging President Trump with 34 felony counts using a novel and untested legal theory that bootstrapped misdemeanor allegations as a felony. The timing and basis for the DANY's prosecution of President Trump provide a clear inference that Bragg is motivated by political calculations. The facts at the center of Bragg's political prosecution had not changed since 2018 and no new witnesses had emerged. Federal prosecutors already declined to pursue the case, and Bragg's predecessor Cyrus Vance also waved off the case. Bragg, too, was initially reluctant to bring the case. The only intervening factor, it appears, was President Trump's announcement that he would be a candidate for President in 2024.
In addition to the novel and untested legal theory, Bragg's case relies heavily on the testimony of his star witness, Michael Cohen—a convicted perjurer with a demonstrable prejudice against President Trump. Cohen has been convicted of lying to Congress and DANY prosecutors were rightly concerned about his serious credibility problems.
Against the backdrop of District Attorney Bragg's decision to find any reason to prosecute President Trump are Bragg's actions to institute pro-crime, anti-victim policies that allowed violent crime to surge by 23 percent during his first year as DA and created a dangerous community for New York City residents.
The fundamental mission of any prosecutor's office is to uphold the rule of law. And one of the hallmarks of this mission is to ensure that justice is blind—applied fairly and equally. Bragg's politically motivated prosecution of President Trump threatens to destroy this notion of blind justice by using the criminal justice system to attack an individual he disagrees with politically, and, in turn, erodes the confidence of the American people.
Last week, The Gateway Pundit reported that the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office, led by Soros-backed district attorney George Gascon, is being accused of dropping the charges against Eugene Yu, the CEO of Konnech and a China-born naturalized citizen to the United States, due to political motivations.
Yu was accused of, among other things, sending Personal Identifying Information (PII) of voters and poll workers to Chinese-owned companies. In China, all stored data is accessible by the government.
Nate Cain, the founder of the company Cain and Associates and tasked with assisting in the investigation of Konnech, joined Why We Vote last night to discuss his findings. Cain revealed that he was required to sign a non-disclosure agreement that would give the LA DA’s Office authority to order Cain to destroy or hand over evidence. Fortunately, Cain amended the contract authorizing him to inform other law enforcement authorities, including federal agencies. He also added a stipulation that if he was not paid, the NDA would be voided.
You can watch the full interview with Nate Cain here (Konnech information begins around the 27:10 mark).
Do you want to know how they get away with subverting our elections and election laws??
The case in Los Angeles County was not brought directly by George Gascon, but rather his Deputy District Attorney, Eric Neff. Neff was a “Grade II Deputy District Attorney” in the “Public Integrity Division”, which handles public corruption in Los Angeles County. Neff has since filed a Tort claim, a precursor to a civil lawsuit, as published by Margot Cleveland and The Federalist.
“In or about October 2020, Mr. Eugene Yu, who owned and operated Konnech Inc., a Michigan-based company, submitted a sole-source contract for the software services of “PollChief” with the County of Los Angeles. According to the contract…”PollChief” was asserted to be a “high-performance election management software that organizes the administration of elections.” The contract was for a maximum of $2,909,500 over five years, which was a significant increase over the previous $200,000 contract also with Konnech.
As part of that contract, Konnech gained access to the PII of election workers and was entrusted with protecting that information with “strict contractual requirements”. Neff claims that Konnech “misled Los Angeles County into believing that Konnech had implemented security procedures to safeguard PII”. DA Gascon “alleged evidence that showed Konnech used third-party contractors based in China” thus “fail[ing] to abide by security procedures to protect such data”.
Neff recognized this breach of contract and began to gather more evidence against Yu. On October 4th, 2022, a search warrant in Michigan was executed and Yu was arrested. According to Neff, “It was immediately clear that Konnech’s deception of LA County with regards to its practices with poll worker information was even worse than initially feared. Konnech was sending sensitive PII data to Chinese-owned and operated third-party contractors through Chinese-owned and operated messaging applications.
On October 6th, two days after the warrant was executed, President Trump Truthed “Go George, Go”. Neff claims that “from this point onward, despite the criminal case against Mr. Yu, DA Gascon and President Trump are connected which is devastating to DA Gascon’s political career.”
Over the next six days, from October 6th thru October 12th, Neff’s “entire chain of command” would “thoroughly” review the evidence against Yu, including “four management-level prosecutors” and “the highest ranking non-elected prosecutor in the office”, Chief Deputy District Attorney Sharon Woo. They all approved of the filing.
Through a series of moves, DA Gascon “through his subordinate chain-of-command” made Neff the second chair on the case and brought in DDA Grade III Luke Sisak from Cyber Crimes to supervise Neff in the prosecution.
From the Tort Claim:
“On November 10, 2022, prior to the demurrer hearing in court, Mr. Sisak met with Mr. Neff and informed him that management from the DA’s Office had ordered the case be dismissed. Neff verbally complained to Mr. Sisak that there was no legal basis for the dismissal and that no one informed him of the dismissal prior to that morning. More importantly, Mr. Neff objected to the dismissal because he had reasonable cause to believe that his participation in the dismissal was against the law. It was a politically based dismissal not in furtherance of justice.”
Neff claimed that under Penal Code section 1386, “neither the Attorney General nor the district attorney can discontinue or abandon a prosecution for a public offense” without permission of the Court. Neff, once again, claimed that the dismissal was for DA Gascon’s political gain.
When Neff brought these concerns to his superiors, claiming political motivations in the dismissal, he was placed on administrative leave pending an internal investigation. In March 2024, a year and a half later, Neff was notified that no disciplinary action would be taken against him. He was demoted from “prosecuting political corruption” to a “less desirable” assignment in the Welfare Fraud Unit. Neff called it “an assignment commonly known in the DA’s Office to punish prosecutors where DDAs are not favored by management.”
Eugene Yu has since fled the country but not before the LA County DA’s office paid him $5 million for “violating his rights”. According to NBC Los Angeles:
Attorneys for Konnech and its owner, Eugene Yu, said they were happy for their client, and said his business was devastated as a result of the public accusations.
“The Los Angeles DA’s arrest of Mr. Yu based on utterly false charges — charges the DA dropped 5 weeks later — and the resulting publicity cost Mr. Yu his life savings and Konnech over 50 percent of its customers,” said Yu’s attorney, Dean Z. Pamphilis.
“Now, just four months after we sued on behalf of Mr. Yu and Konnech, Los Angeles County has agreed to settle the lawsuit, paying $5 million and agreeing to publicly proclaim Mr. Yu’s innocence,” he said in an email to NBCLA.
“Mr. Yu is extremely pleased that his innocence has now been publicly confirmed, and he and Konnech look forward to start to recover from the significant losses which they suffered.”
Last night, Nate Cain, founder of Cain & Associates, joined the Why We Vote podcast to discuss the work they performed assisting the Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office in executing the search warrant against Konnech and Eugene Yu.
Cain & Associates, including CEO Harry Haury, were tasked by the LA DA’s Bureau of Investigations to provide “specialized Highly Adaptable Cybersecurity Services (HACS)” including cyber-forensics, live capture, search, find & recovery, data examination/analysis, network enumeration & security, and advanced persistent threat analysis of foreign adversaries.
According to Cain’s findings, “Yu obtained a patent from the US Patent Office for Konnech’s voting equipment.” Yu’s patent partners are Jun Yu Zhejiang and Guojun Shao, both from China. Cain stated, “This red flag had yellow stars all over it. Our government ignored it and, in the LA County District Attorney’s [Office], George Gascon’s case, he covered it up.”
In the much-hyped Summer 2023 offensive, Ukrainian troops repeatedly failed to breach the formidable Russian defensive fortifications of the ‘Surovikin Line’, despite hundreds of billions of western military aid in money and equipment.
Kiev’s assaults faced seemingly impenetrable minefields, multi-layered trenches, dragon teeth and anti-tank ditches, and left a mountain of destroyed tanks and armored cars as a testimony for the new realities of war.
Today, drones, artillery and missiles, coupled with new ‘eyes in the sky’ IRS capabilities (Intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance) have made offensive actions muh more difficult than in the past.
As the Ukrainian offensive efforts wound down, Russia took the initiat5ive fully leveraging its superior firepower and better trained and equipped troops, and by using a ‘death by a thousand cuts’ strategy, kept nibbling at the 600 mile-long frontline, keeping the badly outmaneuvered Ukrainians always in a rush to scramble reinforcements to and fro.
The result, in these last four months, have been quite different than in Kiev’s case, and the localities conquered by the Russian Federation forces have now amounted to well over a dozen cities and villages.
The news of the advances are so rapid and chaotic that I asked social platform X’s AI chatbot Grok to help me with a comprehensive (but not exhaustive list). What follows is Grok’s initial list edited and complemented by me:
Avdiivka: after Russian forces seized this key Donbas city, they rapidly followed up with several nearby villages: Severnoye, Sjeverne, Lastochkyne, Stepove, Orlivka and Berdychi.
Pervomaiske, Donetsk region – Russian forces announced the capture of this village after a year and a half effort.
Semenivka – Russian forces captured this Donetsk village.
Kiselivka – Russian forces have captured part of this Kherson Oblast village.
Novokalinovo – Russian troops are advancing in this Donetsk area, with successes reported in the center of the village.
Otscheretyne – Moscow forces captured most of this Donetsk town, northwest of Adviivka.
Pervomaiske and Vodyaine – These areas in Donetsk were reported to be fully occupied by Russian forces after a year of fighting.
I understand that to some, this above enumeration may come across as a meaningless list of foreign-sounding names, but one cannot escape the understanding: it’s a lot of places.
The list above (once again, not exhaustive) shows that all localities, with the exception of southern Kiselivka in the Kherson Oblast, were concentrated in the Donetsk Oblast (region).
Donetsk is undoubtedly the main immediate objective of the Russian special military operation, because Donetsk and the already conquered Luhansk were the two Russian majority, former Ukrainian breakaway regions that ignited this whole situation.
While the Russian Federation forces have imposed a overwhelming pace to their advances, so far we haven’t seen a complete breakdown of the Ukrainian lines as many feared.
But the seriousness of the problem Kiev faces can be understood by the fact that two Ukrainian sources – including former President Volodymyr Zelensky advisor Oleksi Arestovytch – have revealed that OVER 100K TROOPS have deserted their positions and are unaccounted for.
Now, a report comes from the battle for Oscheretyne: a ‘blunder’ by Ukrainian troops allowed the Russians to capture large parts of the settlement unopposed.
“Russian troops were able to take most of Ocheretyne, northwest of Avdiivka in eastern Ukraine, after an apparent rotational error involving Ukraine’s elite 47th Mechanized Brigade and its 115th Mechanized Brigade.
The 47th Mechanized Brigade was due to be relieved by the 115th along the front line just east of Ocheretyne.
But as the 47th pulled back, Russia’s 30th Motor Rifle Brigade attacked, taking advantage of a gap left by the pending arrival of the 115th.”
The commander of the 47th, Mykola Melnyk, famous for losing a leg during the summer offensive, wrote a rather shocking account on Facebook: the Business Insider translation is “The drastic advancement of the Russians became possible because certain units just fucked off.”
Automatic translation is a bit more tame:
“The Russians entered the outskirts of Oscheretyne yesterday. The rapid advance of the Russians became possible due to the fact that certain unitssimply lost their positions. I hope they will be disbanded and retrained as attack fighters.”
[That is shocking because it’s the military equivalent wishing them death by putting them on the most dangerous position.]
Russians flags fly over Avdeevka.
Melnyk also touches on a fundamental problem for Kiev: there are no troop rotations. They are just expected to fight until they die.
“The holes that ended up are plugged by those who were planned to be taken to recovery, so 47 OMBr is back in action. Another month and it will be a year without rotation.”
A spokesperson for the 115th Brigade denied the allegations. “The unit did not abandon its position,” he said, according to the Financial Times.
Needless to say, this ugly mudslinging between Ukrainian military units is indicative of the dangerous collapsing morale.
Russian flag flies over Artemovsk (Bakhmut).
In our coverage here of the battle for the key Donbas town of Chasov Yar, we reported about how some elite Azov Nazi units now have rebelled and sometimes do not obey orders:
“But while the fierce Ukrainian defenders have been reinforced with artillery and drones, and electronic warfare devices, as per a Reuters report, the striking feature of this battle is the fact that Nazi Azov brigades seem to be ‘sitting this one out.’
The experience from previous sieges apparently has made the most ideological Ukrainian forces weary of defending ‘to the end’ localities that they deem un-defendable.
“Information has emerged that Azov, the menace of all the ‘Moskals’, has again refused to sacrifice itself for European values. […] in Ukraine, those who made the mess are now pushing forward the gray masses, who were driven against their will, while they themselves prefer to save themselves for future political feats.”
“However, not everyone faces threats like ‘pincers’, ‘cauldrons’, and other blockades. The 3rd brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces (formerly known as “Azov”) is one such example. These nimble soldiers have already departed from Chasov Yar in advance, drawing from their experiences in Mariupol and honing their skills in Avdeevka.”
Besides the 3rd Assault Brigade AZOV refusing to go to Chasov Yar, the 67th Mechanized Brigade (‘right sector unit’) refused orders and left Chasov Yar and reportedly will be dissolved.”
While the new US military aid package will diminish the firepower disparity against Kiev in the short run, and the new mobilization laws will diminish the dire lack of ‘human resources’ in the long run, the collapsing morale of the troops seems to have no antidote in sight.
Joe Biden offered his praise and thanks to a group of wounded warriors at the White House earlier this week — but had his back to them for his entire speech until Jill Biden turned him around.
The bizarre gaffe occurred on Wednesday as Jill Biden launched the Wounded Warrior Project’s annual Soldier Ride from the White House lawn.
Joe Biden tells wounded warriors they are the spine of America after Jill helps him find the wounded warriors.
The confused president walked to the opposite side of the stage from the veterans, kept his back to them, and declared that they are the “spine of America.”
Biden said he had just signed a bill that “all the wounded warriors and warriors care about, we just finally THANK GOD provided Ukraine with the money they need.”
“You are the spine of America,” Biden said before an awkwardly long pause. “That’s not an exaggeration. I really mean it. You’re the backbone. You’re the spine. You’re the reason we are the nation we are. You’re the best America has to offer. God love you all.”
Jill Biden finally turned him around and directed him toward the people he was supposed to be speaking to.
Biden said he had to leave because “Jill’s going to kick me in the rear end if I don’t get out of here and finish my job.”
Cal Poly Humboldt, located on the coast in Arcata, about 280 miles north of San Francisco, shut down its campus on Friday after pro-Hamas/Communist activists took over President Tom Jackson’s office and set up an ‘occupy zone.’ One of the buildings was renamed “Intifada Hall” by the terrorist supporters. The school will be closed through May 10 with classes held online. Humboldt, which is a Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI), reports it has 5,858 undergraduate students with fulltime tuition and fees for the year costing $7,864.
The office of Cal Poly Humboldt President Tom Jackson was vandalized by Hamas supporters who occupied Siemens Hall, screen image via Ryan Burns/YouTube, April 27, 2024.
The school has acknowledged outside actors are in involved, saying, in a statement Wednesday (scroll down to April 24 at link), “There are unidentified non-students with unknown intentions, in Siemens Hall. This creates an unpredictable environment. In addition, all entrances to the building are barricaded, creating a fire hazard. Adding to health and safety concerns, many toilets are no longer working.”
The San Francisco Chronicle reported Saturday about 100 tents are spread around the occupied campus, “UPDATE: About 100 tents covered the lawns adjoining Siemens Hall and extended across the Cal Poly Humboldt campus Saturday as Pro-Palestinian demonstrators protest in defiance of the university’s orders to leave Friday evening.”

Videos posted online show the takeover of the campus by pro-Hamas activists using Antifa tactics like using ‘riot shields’ to defend against police actions. Earlier in the week there were violent clashes with police on campus. (Police withdrew after battling the activists for several minutes.)
Video posted Saturday by “Stu” shows the aftermath of the takeover of the Siemens Hall administration building housing the president’s office. Property destruction, trash and graffiti–lots of graffiti, “BREAKING: A look inside “Intifada Hall” at Cal Poly Humboldt. Students have “occupied and barricaded” two buildings and have encamped around them.”

Cal Poly Humboldt issued statements Friday closing the campus and offering amnesty from arrest and mitigation of disciplinary action for those who left by 4 p.m. The statements were posted on the school’s “Emergency” page.
Campus Closed Through the End of the Semester, Remote Instruction and Work Continue
April 26, 2024 – 12:30pm
Campus is now closed through May 10, and work and academic instruction will be remote as individuals continue to occupy Siemens Hall and Nelson Hall East. More details to follow about campus operations and remote work.
The occupation of Siemens Hall and Nelson Hall East is causing ongoing inability to open other campus facilities. Since Monday night, protestors have attempted several times to break into multiple locked buildings with the intention of either locking themselves in, vandalizing, or stealing equipment. Vandalism and theft have continued across campus.
Campus Offers Chance to Leave Buildings with No Immediate Arrest
April 26, 2024 – 2:10pm
As part of an ongoing and urgent effort to protect life and safety in the ongoing crisis of occupied buildings, Cal Poly Humboldt is offering any of those currently in the buildings the opportunity to leave with a guarantee of no immediate arrest. This does not, however, eliminate University conduct-related sanctions or legal implications.
Those who walk out peacefully by the deadline will not be immediately arrested and will be able to leave campus without being arrested. In addition, voluntarily departing in this way will be considered as a mitigating factor in University conduct processes and may reduce the severity of sanctions imposed.
This offer is open until 4 p.m., Friday, April 26. (Later extended to 5 p.m.)
The offer applies to both students and non-students who are currently occupying buildings and illegally camping around them.
The individuals inside the buildings were told about this opportunity earlier today. They are also being notified by email and other communications channels.
A number of individuals have continued to occupy Siemens Hall since Monday, and have made efforts to occupy other buildings on campus. While the situation is largely stabilized, there is continuing destruction of property and other lawlessness in the central part of campus. This has caused complex operational challenges that require the closure of other facilities on campus. The occupation is having a negative impact on other students, who are trying to complete classes at the end of the semester
The Cal Poly Humboldt campus is closed through the remainder of the semester, and work and instruction continue to be remote.
The school responded earlier Friday to the pro-Hamas activists’ list of demands which can be read at the “Emergency” page. The school would not commit to total amnesty:
4. Drop charges against and halt the harassment of student organizers by law enforcement.
University policy and conduct violations will follow established procedures, and there will be consequences for actions that violate policy or law. However, students who elect to evacuate the building and support efforts to clear the building will have their actions considered as a mitigating factor within those processes.
Background on Cal Poly Humboldt via Wikipedia (excerpt):
California State Polytechnic University, Humboldt (Cal Poly Humboldt or Humboldt[Note 1][7]) is a public university in Arcata, California. It is one of three polytechnic universities in the California State University (CSU) system and the northernmost campus in the system.
The main campus, situated hillside at the edge of a coast redwood forest, overlooks Arcata, much of Humboldt Bay, and the Pacific Ocean. The college town setting on the California North Coast, 8 miles (13 km) north of Eureka, 279 miles (449 km) north of San Francisco, and 654 miles (1053 km) north of Los Angeles is notable for its natural beauty. It is the most westerly four-year university in the contiguous United States. Humboldt is a Hispanic-serving institution (HSI).
The university is divided into three colleges: the College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences; the College of Natural Resources and Sciences; and the College of Professional Studies.[6] It offers 58 bachelor’s degree programs, 14 master’s degree programs, 76 minors, and 4 credential programs.[3] Cal Poly Humboldt does not offer doctoral degrees.
The wave of pro-Hamas protests is being orchestrated by a global anti-Western Civilization alliance of Communists and Islamists. While issue is Gaza, as the saying goes, ‘the issue is never the issue, the issue is the revolution.’

When Genesis Gold Group was first started, co-founder Jonathan Rose knew two things were necessary in order to thrive in the extremely competitive precious metals industry:
First, he knew they wouldn’t repeat the same deceptive marketing tactics “Big Gold” companies use to entice customers.
Second, he knew they needed spiritual guidance if they were going to succeed in reaching Americans who want their life’s savings protected from the tumultuous markets.
“If we are going to live up to our namesake, we have to be truly driven by Biblical principles… not only as individuals but as a company,” Rose said.
Millions of Americans have grown increasingly concerned about the trajectory of our nation. It made sense for Genesis Gold Group to launch by combining over 50-years of experience in gold and silver with proper guidance from faith leaders.
This is why Director of Philanthropy David Holland, was one of the first people they hired.
“As a minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, I firmly believe good stewardship of a believer’s resources is important and a foundation for a close walk with Him,” Holland said. “It is not difficult to see, based on the lack of biblical values in both our government and financial system, that we are swiftly heading into unstable times.”
The challenges aren’t just coming from the economy or government. The precious metals industry itself is rife with “Big Gold” companies who are willing to use sketchy marketing tactics and over-the-top sales pressure to get Americans into overpriced products.
Self-directed IRAs backed by physical precious metals are becoming more popular for mature Americans who are concerned about inflation, unsustainable debt, the ongoing banking crisis, and “woke” ESG funds filling their retirement portfolios.
The challenge, as Rose noted, is that the vast majority of self-directed IRA products being pushed by “Big Gold” are not built with the customers’ best interests in mind.
“The process appears to be the same from one gold company to another but there’s a huge gap between how secular gold companies do business versus how we do it,” Rose said. “We guide our clients to back their retirement accounts with metals that are priced right and have the greatest opportunity for growth. Most gold companies look only at their own margins when filling their customers’ depositories.”
To change the industry, and thereby change the way Americans protect their retirement, Genesis Gold Group refuses to participate in the effective but deceptive marketing tactic of offering “free” silver with “qualified” purchases. It’s a gimmick through which gold companies overcharge for the metals their customers buy, then give them what essentially turns out to be a small rebate in the form of “free” silver.
The silver being offered isn’t actually free. It’s simply baked into the exuberant margins “Big Gold” companies charge for their precious metals products.
“We believe in two things,” Rose said. “We serve God and we serve our customers. We may not be willing to buy a paid recommendation from a Fox News host or former popular politician, but our real world customer testimonials tell the true story of Genesis Gold Group.”
Here are some of the things customers are saying about Genesis:
“With the downward turn in the market, I have been wanting to transfer my IRA to gold/precious metals. I am so happy that I came across Genesis Gold Group. They made the process seamless . . . They have knowledge, care, and patience with newbies, like me. They kept me informed along the way and reached out several times to see if I had any questions or concerns. I highly recommend them to anyone interested in investing in precious metals.”
“They made it so easy to transfer part of the funds out of my company 401K to set up a precious metals IRA. Everyone I’ve dealt with there is friendly and knowledgeable.”
“The people at Genesis Gold Group have been very helpful to get my 401k from stocks and bonds to silver coins on deposit. They are patient and explained each step and answered my numerous questions along the way.”
Hearing from customers drives Rose and his team to continue to believe in their mission.
“We hope we can change the industry, which is busy taking advantage of Americans without taking the time to appreciate the consequences,” Rose said. “But even if we can’t change other gold companies, we can definitely change the lives of people who put their trust in our services. Knowing that is more than enough for us to keep fighting the good fight.”

Four Vietnamese nationals have been arrested in England for running Facebook advertisements for a human smuggling operation.
The National Crime Agency says that the group would collect people brought to England on small boats and bring them to an address in Croydon.
On Monday, police arrested a 23-year-old woman and 64 and 34-year-old men for “suspicion of assisting unlawful immigration.” A 25-year-old man was also arrested for “people smuggling and drug offenses,” according to a report from Sky News.
The report explains, “In Paris, 12 people have also been arrested as part of the investigation into the group accused of sharing posts aimed at the Vietnamese community, advertising illegal crossings and charging those willing to make the trip thousands of pounds.”
“The older man arrested in London is thought to have acted as a driver, collecting migrants who arrived on small boats and on at least one occasion bringing them back to the Croydon address, the National Crime Agency (NCA) said,” the report continues. “He will now face extradition proceedings while the others were charged and appeared at Croydon Magistrates Court on Tuesday, they added.”
Home Secretary James Cleverly said in a statement, “We are using every possible lever at our disposal to crack down on people smugglers and break their supply chains.”
“Just last week, we signed a new agreement with Vietnam, strengthening our cooperation on illegal migration,” Cleverly added. “Together with law enforcement agencies such as the NCA, our French partners, and other countries like Vietnam, we are committed to dismantling the criminal gangs who are trying to turn a profit by abusing our borders.”
Disgraced film producer Harvey Weinstein was hospitalized this Saturday following his transfer back to Rikers Island jail.
The 72-year-old is undergoing a series of medical tests ahead of his scheduled court appearance next week.
His attorney, Arthur Aidala, spoke to the Associated Press about his client’s deteriorating health.
Weinstein was initially examined at Rikers but was moved to Bellevue Hospital in Manhattan for a more comprehensive evaluation.
“They examined him and sent him to Bellevue. It seems like he needs a lot of help, physically. He’s got a lot of problems. He’s getting all kinds of tests. He’s somewhat of a train wreck health wise,” Aidala said.
“Harvey is in the hands of NYC Department of Corrections and NYC H+H/Correctional Health Services and is having his medical needs tended to by DOCS and CHS,” Craig Rothfeld, Weinstein’s prison consultant and authorized DOCS representative, told Fox News Digital in a statement. “We are grateful for how smoothly they handled his eventual return to Bellevue’s prison ward.”
Weinstein’s representative, Juda Engelmayer, told Fox News Digital that Weinstein returned to Rikers Island on Saturday morning.
“At the same time, we‘re cautiously optimistic and are prepared to go to trial, if it comes to that,” Engelmayer added. “There are fewer charges now and the deck isn’t going to be illegally stacked against him. While we all enjoy the same rights when it comes to our justice system, a defendant has an additional right to due process. We are glad the Appeals Court judges saw it that way.”
Weinstein’s return to Rikers comes after his 2020 rape conviction was overturned by a panel of mostly female judges in New York’s high court in a narrow 4-3 decision on Thursday, as reported by The Gateway Pundit.
Weinstein, who was convicted of sexual assault and rape, was serving a 23-year sentence at Mohawk Correctional Facility. His convictions included the forcible performance of oral sex on a television and film production assistant in 2006 and the third-degree rape of an aspiring actress in 2013.
His legal battle took an unexpected turn when the New York Court of Appeals, in a narrow 4-3 verdict on Thursday, overturned his 2020 rape conviction. The court highlighted several instances of judicial error, specifically pointing out the testimony of women regarding uncharged sexual acts, deeming it improperly admitted and irrelevant to the case at hand.
“We conclude that the trial court erroneously admitted testimony of uncharged, alleged prior sexual acts against persons other than the complainants of the underlying crimes,” the court’s 4-3 decision said, according to AP. “The remedy for these egregious errors is a new trial.”
Despite the reversal of the New York conviction, Weinstein continues to serve time for subsequent convictions in Los Angeles for rape, although he has signaled intentions to challenge that verdict too, according to NBC.
The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office has expressed its determination to re-try the case, emphasizing its commitment to the cause of sexual assault survivors.
“We will leverage every resource within our power to re-try this case,” declared the office on Thursday, reaffirming its dedication to prioritizing the experiences and wellbeing of survivors in their pursuit of justice.
An illegal alien in Florida was arrested on Thursday by the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Department for double murder. He allegedly stabbed his girlfriend and her 4-year-old daughter to death.
Investigators believe that Angel Gabriel Cuz-Choc, 31, was here illegally from Guatemala.
DOVER, Fla. — Less than 24 hours after a brutal double homicide in Dover, the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office said Thursday it has arrested a suspect.
According to Sheriff Chad Chronister, 31-year-old Angel Gabriel Cuz-Choc has been taken into custody and will be charged. Investigators believe Cuz-Choc relocated to Hillsborough County from Guatemala within the last year.
Investigators are still working to identify the adult female victim and the young child. Chronister confirmed the young victim is a little girl who looks to be 4 or 5 years old.
“Our main concern was to identify him and find out how he entered our country. We learned with working with our partners in Homeland Security, he did enter this country unlawfully,” Hillsborough County Sheriff said.

The Biden administration has demonstrated that they have no intention of taking illegal immigration seriously.
In March, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas was on CBSs “Face the Nation,” and would not say that Laken Riley’s murderer should have been deported.
“Should this man have been deported?” Brennen asked Mayorkas.
“One individual is responsible for the murder, and that is the murderer,” Mayorkas responded.

Earlier this week, 11 Presidential electors in Arizona from the 2020 Election were indicted after a grand jury. The Gateway Pundit reported on this weaponization of the “attorney general” in Arizona. This is in addition to the criminal cases being brought in Georgia and Michigan, but also the lesser-known criminal and civil cases in Nevada, New Mexico, Pennsylvania, and a settlement in Wisconsin.
It is worth noting that while it seems easy to bring charges against these electors, it was infinitely more difficult to litigate the election claims themselves. Most cases were dismissed on procedural grounds rather than merit. See a list of lawsuits and their outcomes here.
Kris Mayes “won” the Attorney General race against Republican Abe Hamadeh by 280 votes, despite a major discrepancy in Maricopa County that disproportionately impacted predominantly Republican precincts when the Ballot-On-Demand printers printed 19″ ballots on 20″ paper. This caused massive delays as voters tried to feed ballots through the tabulators over and over as the machines rejected them. In addition to voters being forced to place their ballots in “Door #3” to (hopefully) be properly counted later in the evening, lines also began to wrap around buildings and parking lots filled up as delays began to surpass an hour to cast a ballot. Many voters attested that they had to leave because they had other obligations and couldn’t wait in an hours-long line to vote.

In July 2023, The Gateway Pundit published an article about lawfare being used against the alternate electors in the states with contested elections, specifically Georgia, as those electors were the ones being indicted at the time. The article originally was to focus around the declaration of Professor Todd Zywicki, the George Mason Foundation Professor of Law at the Antonin Scalia Law School at George Mason University. Zywicki is a well-accomplished legal scholar with several published academic papers specifically on laws governing presidential elections and transitions.
However, there were at least two articles from Mockingbird Media outlets that reinforced the position Professor Zywicki was taking regarding sending an alternate slate of electors in a contested election. One was from CNN, before the days-long counting process ensued and Biden ‘prevailed’. Around the same time we all went to bed on November 3rd with President Trump in a commanding lead in Pennsylvania (Trump up by 600,000 votes, or 11 points), Georgia (Trump up by 117,000 votes), and Michigan (Trump up by 6 points in Michigan at 4:50am, according to NPR).
In a November 4th, 2020 article, CNN’s Van Jones and Lawrences Lessig tried to show that Biden “still has a path to victory” and stated that:
The key – and this is the critical fact for 2020 as well – is that the Democratic slate [of electors] had also met on December 19 [1960], and had also cast their ballots in the manner specified by the Constitution. When they voted, no one knew whether their votes would matter. But at least someone recognized that the only way their votes could matter was if they were cast on the day that Congress had set.
“Although the three Democratic electors in Hawaii took the same action — signing false certificates — it does not appear they ever faced similar scrutiny, in part because of what happened next. Namely, that Hawaii’s recount ultimately did reverse the state’s election outcome.“
I guess ‘criminality’ is ‘outcome-determinative’.
However, this is where it gets interesting. Politico went on to write:
One crucial feature of the 1960 episode is that a state court weighed in on Jan. 4, 1961, two days before Nixon (then vice-president) oversaw the electoral vote count.
In that case, Judge Ronald Jamieson agreed that the certified Kennedy electors were legitimate. But, more significantly, Jamieson said it was important that those electors met and gathered on Dec. 19, 1960, as prescribed by the Electoral Count Act.
Rather than suggest the Democratic electors committed fraud, the judge pointed to their meeting as a key step that preserved their ability to be counted after the recount showed Kennedy had actually won the state.
The highlighted portions would unequivocally suggest that President Trump’s electors were justified in their actions based on past precedent. However, those highlighted portions no longer exist in the current form of the Politico article that can be found here. But the internet is forever and those quotes remain on the Wayback Machine archives that can be found here.
Sometime in the month following The Gateway Pundit publishing this piece that cited the above quote specifically, as well as Professor Zywicki’s expert declaration, Politico edited their article to remove (or edit) the highlighted segments.
At the bottom of the article, they write:
CORRECTION: An earlier version of this story incorrectly indicated that Jamieson acknowledged the unofficial slate of Democratic electors when he ruled that Kennedy had prevailed in the recount. He made no mention of the “contingent” slate in his ruling or judgment. The story also gave the incorrect date of Jamieson’s ruling. It was Dec. 30, 1960.
Updating the story was also an opportunity to add a whole range of new primary source documents from 1960 that we obtained from NARA. They include Hawaii judge, Ronald Jamieson’s actual ruling and findings.
And then posted this screenshot, purportedly of the judgement from Judge Ronald B. Jamieson:
Politico also removed the last sentence The Gateway Pundit cited (“Rather than suggest the Democratic electors committed fraud…”) despite a strikingly similar citation being made in the Atlanta Journal Constitution and credited to Holly Pierson, counsel for defendant David Shafer and others:
“Rather than suggest the uncertified Democratic electors had committed crimes, Judge Jamieson hailed them as heroes, describing their meeting as a critically important step that preserved their ability for their presidential ballots to be counted after the Democrats prevailed in their election contest and the Governor certified the Democratic contingent presidential electors as having been elected,” Pierson and Gillen said.
The above-referenced quote comes from a letter that was sent to Fulton County DA Fani Willis’s office on March 26th, 2023 from Holly Pierson, counsel for David Shafer. In the letter, in a footnote on page 4, it states:
In so holding, Judge Ronald Jamieson specifically noted that it was important that the uncertified Democrat presidential electors had met on Dec. 19, 1960, as prescribed by the Electoral Count Act, to cast their ballots. Rather than suggest the uncertified Democratic electors had committed crimes, Judge Jamieson hailed them as heroes, describing their meeting as a critically important step that preserved their ability for their presidential ballots to be counted after the Democrats prevailed in their election contest and the Governor certified the Democratic contingent presidential electors as having been elected.
We’ve reached out to Pierson as well as Professor Zywicki for more information regarding the footnote from the letter to DA Willis.
Either way, the declaration (below) from Prof. Zywicki in and of itself is a thorough explanation to the necessity of sending alternate electors in a contested election, especially electors that claim they are alternates, as was done in 2020. He also points out that Democrats did the same thing on December 14th, 2020 in the contested Presidential Election of Bush v. Gore.
An unidentified man carries a sign echoing the Nazi plan to eradicate Jews. Image: @zach_kessel/X
An unidentified anti-Israel protester was photographed at George Washington University (GWU) with a sign calling for the “final solution,” echoing the Nazi plan to exterminate all Jews.
The man was seen carrying a large Palestinian flag with a sign using the verbiage of Adolf Hitler to describe his plans for the “annihilation of the Jews” as anti-Israel protesters on Thursday occupied GWU’s campus.
The school said Friday that the remaining protesters “and any who attempt to join them are trespassing on private property and violating university regulations.”
“We are aware that individuals who are not GW students have joined the protest, and we have taken steps to restrict access to University Yard,” said the uni.
“We continue to work with the [Metropolitan Police Department] to ensure the safety and security of our campus.
“We are aware that individuals who are not GW students have joined the protest, and we have taken steps to restrict access to University Yard.
“We will pursue disciplinary actions against the GW students involved in these unauthorized demonstrations that continue to disrupt university operations.”, which is working with police said.”
In the wake of October 7, the exponential rise in antisemitic violence, incitement, intimidation, and harassment on and around campuses in the United States is not the product of spontaneous protests of individuals. Rather, they are tightly coordinated and well-funded by a network of radical and often antisemitic non-governmental organizations (NGOs), including Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP), Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP), Within Our Lifetime, US Campaign for Palestinian Rights, and Samidoun. Under the guise of human rights and justice, these NGOs work to undermine the economic, military and other ties between US and Israel, and to besiege and divide the US Jewish community.
All of these groups have supported and justified the October 7th massacre, as well as other attacks. Many of the NGOs in the network are directly linked to designated Palestinian terror organizations.
Texas grid operator ERCOT (Electric Reliability Council of Texas) on Friday warned of a possible emergency next week due to deficient reserves.
ERCOT manages electric power to more than 26 million Texas customers and represents 90% of the state’s electric load, according to the company.
In this ERCOT Trending Topic, we explain the purpose of a Control-Room-issued Advance Action Notice (AAN) and what this notice means for Market Participants and grid operations: https://t.co/NdJmggMhoPpic.twitter.com/eS6PfrzWAo
“The Texas electrical grid operator warned of a possible emergency early next week because of a potential shortfall of power reserves.” – Bloomberg reported.
“The Electric Reliability Council of Texas said Friday the grid may have deficient reserves from April 29 at 7 p.m. Central time through May 1 at 9 p.m. Ercot may delay or cancel planned power-plant outages and may need to shore up available supplies by about 2,800 megawatts.” Bloomberg reported.
Millions of Texans suffered blackouts partly due to the frozen wind turbines.
Three years later and Texas still hasn’t moved away from ‘green’ energy sources to avoid power outages due to deficient reserves or because of frozen wind turbines.
Another Joe Biden foreign policy disaster is in the works.
Joe Biden already turned over the Bagram Airbase in Afghanistan to Taliban terrorists in September 2021.
Biden abandoned Afghanistan’s Bagram Airfield after nearly 20 years in July by shutting off the electricity and slipping away in the night without notifying the base’s Afghan commander, who discovered the Americans’ secret departure more than two hours after they left.
The Taliban quickly took control of Bagram Air Base, which is only 30 miles north of Kabul, on August 15th and released thousands of terrorists held at its prison. The Americans and Afghans left the Taliban military equipment, uniforms, rations and even sports drinks.
The ISIS suicide bomber who murdered 13 US servicemen and women and 169 Afghans was released by the Taliban from the Bagram Base prison in July.
ISIS suicide bomber Abdul Rehman was incarcerated at the Bagram prison for the past four years until he was set free by the Taliban terrorists.
Last week we learned about Joe Biden’s latest foreign policy disaster. The situation in Niger could top the Afghanistan withdrawal – if that is possible.
Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) totally embarrassed the US Army Secretary and exposed Joe Biden’s latest foreign policy catastrophe during questioning this week in the US House of Representatives’ Armed Services Committee hearing.
Gaetz exposed the latest Biden foreign policy failure – this time in Niger, Africa.
US troops are trapped in the country allegedly without water and medicine. The Army was likely hiding this to protect itself from embarrassment. Deployed Americans are in limbo and unable to do their jobs and the Biden State Department is completely outmaneuvered once again.
US Army Secretary Christine Wormuth, a potential DEI hire, was stunned and speechless when Matt Gaetz confronted her about the trapped US soldiers in Niger a country in tremendous turmoil.
It now appears the US has a trade offer from the military junta in Niger. The Russian-backed military junta in Niger will release the 1,000 US soldiers trapped at the base in exchange for the keys to the $100 million American airbase in the country.
WAR: Niger’s Russian-backed military junta has agreed to release 1,000 US troops it was effectively holding hostage in exchange for Biden’s agreement to turn over our $100M airbase to Niger and Russian forces. The US media will barely mention this humiliation today. pic.twitter.com/UpmnsMMI2g
How is it possible that the Biden regime could be so inept?
How is it possible that the US military could be so incompetent?
Should Americans expect more from our Billion dollar investment into the military industrial complex?
Now Chad is forcing a majority of US troops out of the country.

The Biden-Obama regime is destroying US credibility around the world.
This report is unbelievable. The US is no longer respected under Joe Biden.
The AP reported:
The United States will pull the majority of its troops from Chad and Niger as it works to restore key agreements governing what role there might be there for the American military and its counterterrorism operations, the Pentagon said Thursday.
Both African countries have been integral to the U.S. military’s efforts to counter violent extremist organizations across the Sahel region, but Niger’s ruling junta ended an agreement last month that allows U.S. troops to operate in the West African country. In recent days, neighboring Chad also has questioned whether an existing agreement covered the U.S. troops operating there.
The U.S. will relocate most of the approximately 100 forces it has deployed in Chad for now, Pentagon press secretary Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder said Thursday at a press briefing.
“As talks continue with Chadian officials, U.S. AFRICOM is currently planning to reposition some U.S. military forces from Chad, some portions of which were already scheduled to depart. This is a temporary step as part of the ongoing review of our security cooperation, which will resume after Chad’s May 6th presidential election," Ryder said.
In Niger, the majority of the 1,000 U.S. personnel assigned there also are expected to depart, Ryder said.
U.S. and Nigerien officials were expected to meet Thursday in Niger's capital, Niamey, “to initiate discussions on an orderly and responsible withdrawal of U.S. forces," the State Department said in a statement late Wednesday. Follow-up meetings between senior Pentagon and Niger officials are expected next week “to coordinate the withdrawal process in a transparent manner and with mutual respect,” Ryder said.
Interesting information from the African reporter on RT.
The American Exodus: US withdraws troops from Chad
‘They simply want to be part of current protest movements’
There are hundreds, no thousands, of university-age students participating now in the anti-Israel protests on campuses across the nation.
Most of them have little idea of the reason for their protests, according to longtime liberal lawyer Alan Dershowitz.
He said they’re “useful idiots” to those who have a more nefarious motive behind the protests and the violence.
But the threat is that they are being groomed for future terrorists.
Dershowitz, the Felix Frankfurther Professor of Law, emeritus at Harvard, wrote in a column at the Gatestone Institute, where he is a fellow, that those protesters include university, high school and even middle school students.
They are protesting Israel, the U.S., and Jews.
“Some of the signs say ‘pro-Palestine,’ ‘ceasefire now’ and ‘end the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.’ But these benign statements hide a far more malignant agenda, the end of Israel as the nation-state of the Jewish people, the end of America as the world’s leading power and the end of democracy and the free market economy. Even if there were a unilateral ceasefire, accompanied by massive humanitarian assistance to the people of Gaza, many of these protests would continue, because Gaza is merely an excuse for a much wider agenda: to destroy Israel and destroy America,” he warned.
New York protesters, he pointed out, recently called to repeat the atrocities of Hamas’ attack on Israeli civilians on Oct. 7, “a thousand times.”
“There were shouts of ‘We are Hamas,’ ‘Death to America,’ ‘Burn Tel Aviv to the ground,’ ‘Israel go to hell’ and ‘Jews to back to Poland.’ The chant of ‘from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free’ is pervasive. Free of what? Free of Jews,” he said.
Nobody, he said, has been caught with a sign calling for a two-state peace solution.
The calls for “revolution” actually bypass the Middle East issues and aim directly at America, he said.
“As in the 1960s, many of these students are being groomed to be the terrorists of the future – in the manner of Kathy Boudin and Bernardine Dohrn back then – and, in the United States, a fifth column, the aim of which is taking down America,” he said.
The are four players in the protests: Arabs and Muslims who hate Israel and Jews, “old line radicals,” anarchists and America-haters, organizers who handle money and organize violence, and then those “useful idiots.”
They have “little or no knowledge of the substantive issues. They simply want to be part of current protest movements, which are popular on campuses and among many of their peers. It is this last group that is most troubling, because many of its members are good and decent people who are being led into dangerous territory by their elders.”
He said, “That these useful idiots are young does not make them less dangerous. Young students were instrumental in bringing to power tyrants such as Hitler, Stalin, Castro, Pol Pot and Mao.”
He conceded that because they’re young, they still can change ideologies. But he said consequences should accrue to those who are violent.
Those should include “arrest and prosecution – for physically intimidating, blocking and harassing Jews or any minorities. Such actions are not protected by the First Amendment, university disciplinary rules, or employers after graduation.”
Tucker Carlson recently spoke with Justin Haskins, a senior fellow at the Heartland Institute, to discuss the findings from a recent poll showing that one in five voters admitted to breaking the law regarding voting practices in the 2020 election.
As The Gateway Pundit’s Brian Lupo previously reported, the poll conducted by The Heartland Institute and Rasmussen Reports “found one in five voters who cast mail-in ballots during the 2020 presidential election admit to participating in at least one kind of voter fraud.”
Keep in mind that 43% of 2020 voters cast ballots by mail. There were approximately 155M ballots cast in the 2020 Presidential Election. 43% of that would mean over 66M voted by mail.
The poll consisted of 1,085 likely voters. Republicans made up 33% of those polled, while 36% and 31% were Democrats and “other,” respectively. When broken down by age, 32% were 18-39, 46% were 40-64, and 22% were 65 or older:
“One in five” of 66M would amount to potentially over 13.33M ballots that were illegally cast. But 2020 was “the safest and most secure election in history.”
Additionally, The Gateway Pundit reported on the phony mail-in ballot signatures on 2022 ballots after receiving access to likely fraudulent 2022 ballot envelopes and historical signatures through a legal public records request. See the obviously fake signatures here.
According to the results of the poll:
17% of mail-in voters admit that in 2020 they voted in a state where they are “no longer a permanent resident”
21% of mail-in voters admitted that they filled out a ballot for a friend or family member
17% of mail-in voters said they signed a ballot for a friend or family member “with or without his or her permission”
8% of likely voters say they were offered “pay” or a “reward” for voting in 2020.
10% of respondents – not just those who voted by mail – claimed that they know “a friend, family member, co-worker, or other acquaintance who has admitted…that he or she cast a mail-in ballot in 2020 in a state other than his or her state of permanent residence.”
"About one in five mail-in ballots in the last election was fraudulent, handing Biden the presidency. We know this because the people who committed the fraud have admitted it in a new poll," said Tucker in the caption of his latest episode.
Watch below:
Tucker: It's now apparently a criminal offense, a felony in this country, to suggest the 2020 presidential campaign was not on the level. That crime appears to form the basis of one of Donald Trump's pending indictments. But actually, it's worth denying the legitimacy of that election because it was not fair. Critical information was withheld from voters through censorship and yes by the government. That is a fact. It's also a fact that Mark Zuckerberg spent $400 million to control voting in various places around the country and affect the outcome. That's not legitimate. It was also conducted in many places through electronic voting machines, and no country should ever use electronic voting machines because, fundamentally, they cannot be trusted. Why would you trust them? But then there's the question of outright cheating, voter fraud. Was there voter fraud? Well, we know there was some, but was it widespread? That is a hard allegation to prove, though, of course, many people believe there was widespread fraud. Well, now it turns out we know for a fact that there was, and in fact, it can be proven with a poll. Just ask people, did you personally commit voter fraud? Well, that has just been done. And the answer is a huge percentage of people asked in the poll admitted, “yes. I committed voter fraud.” It's remarkable. Justin Haskins is a senior fellow at the Heartland Institute. He joins us now with details. Justin, thanks so much for coming on. If you could just start by giving us the results, the shocking results of this poll, and we'll go from there.
Haskins: It was pretty straightforward. We asked people a series of questions. The first of which is or one of the first questions was, did you vote in the 2020 election? And did you vote with an absentee ballot? And if they answered yes to both of those questions, then we asked a bunch of questions related to voter fraud. We didn't tell them that we were asking did you commit voter fraud. We just asked them about various behaviors. So, for example, we asked people, did you vote in a state where you're no longer a legal resident? That's a pretty straightforward question. If you're not a permanent resident of a state, you can't vote there. 17% of people, nearly one in five, said yes, they did do that. We asked people, did you fill out a ballot for someone else on their behalf? That's also illegal. You're not allowed to fill out someone else's ballot. 21% of people said yes to that question. We asked if people forged the signature of a friend or family member on their behalf with or without their permission. We actually put that in the poll question. And 17% of people said yes to that. So, all told, it's at least, and I say at least, one in five mail-in ballots involve some kind of fraudulent activity, but we didn't just stop there. We also asked everyone whether they voted via mail-in ballot or not, so in-person voting as well, do you know anyone who personally, in your personal life, a friend, a family member, an acquaintance, or someone from work, has anyone ever admitted to you that they did one of these kinds of forms of voter fraud and 10% and 11% -- e asked two different questions on that — said yes, people admitted to me that they committed voter fraud.
About one in five mail-in ballots in the last election was fraudulent, handing Biden the presidency. We know this because the people who committed the fraud have admitted it in a new poll. pic.twitter.com/fxHL9hT4sw
Florida GOP Rep. Bill Posey on Friday abruptly announced he will be retiring from Congress at the end of the year.
The 76-year-old was first elected to represent Florida’s 8th Congressional District in 2008.
“It has been the greatest honor of Katie’s and my life to represent you in Congress,” Bill Posey said in a statement. “And, polls suggest that because of YOUR support, I could remain in the job forever, and we were looking forward to another spirited campaign for a final term in office. However, earlier this week circumstances beyond my control now require me to suspect my re-election campaign.”
“I will continue to devote all possible resources to continue representing you through the end of my current term, helping President Donald Trump return to the oval office, and supporting former Florida Senate President Mike Haridopolos, in whom I have the greatest trust and confidence, to take up my battles against the swamp and replace me as your Congressman,” he said.
Bill Posey endorsed Mike Haridopolos to replace his seat.
“For many years, Mike has served as my Congressional Finance Committee Chairman, while I have mentored him to replace me,” Posey said. “Mike was, and remains, my first choice to represent you, me, and our district in Congress.”
Last week GOP Rep. Jake LaTurner (KS) announced he won’t seek reelection in November. He was first elected to the House of Representatives in 2020.
According to Axios, more Republican lawmakers are expected to announce retirements in the next few weeks.
More than 23 House Republicans have announced they will not seek reelection in 2024.
Last month RINO Representative Mike Gallagher (WI) announced he would exit the House in mid-April.
Following the resignation of Mike Gallagher, Kevin McCarthy, Bill Johnson, Ken Buck and the ousting of George Santos, the Republicans are left with a one-seat majority!
