A bunch of UNC fraternity brothers went viral – for a good reason – this week when they saved an American flag by preventing it from touching the ground.
Now they are being recognized in a new Trump ad.
American needs more young men like these students, willing to step up and defend America from the radical left.
RedState reports:
Trump Releases Soaring Campaign Ad Honoring UNC Frat Brothers Who Protected Flag
Former president Donald Trump released a rousing campaign ad Saturday on his Truth Social account featuring the UNC fraternity brothers and others across the nation who stood up against the radical pro-Hamas protesters on their campuses.
Despite what it can seem like when you turn on the news, not all college students are anti-Israel and supporters of terrorists—in fact, there’s a whole bunch of them who don’t like what’s going on either.
Trump has been paying attention, and his new spot shows video clips of many of these events set to soaring music. “While campuses struggle to get control of their students, at UNC-Chapel Hill, they are bringing order back,” the video begins.
In the ad, we see the violent pro-Hamas mobs across the country, but then we cut to students like the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill frat brothers who protected the American flag at their campus’ demonstration. The brothers from the Pi Kappa Phi fraternity are now famous, and country star John Rich has announced he will play a concert for them to honor their patriotism…

Massachusetts Democrat Governor Maura Healey has just approved hundreds of millions in new spending for illegal immigrants, even as people are fleeing the state for greener pastures.
Massachusetts is a sanctuary state where homeless migrants must be housed, no matter how badly it works out for citizens.
The state is spending an insane amount of money on people who entered the country illegally.
Townhall reports:
Democrat Massachusetts Gov. Approves $400 Million In Freebies for Illegal Immigrants
Despite residents fleeing Massachusetts, Democrat Gov. Maura Healey (D-MA) signed a bill welcoming hundreds more of illegal immigrants into her state.
Healey signed the state budget this week that includes an additional $426 million to house illegal aliens in correspondence to the state’s “right to shelter” law that requires the government to put illegal immigrants and homeless people into homes.
The Democrat governor’s move comes as Boston declared a state of emergency after it exhausted its resources last year due to the massive influx of illegal immigrants coming to the sanctuary state.
According to a report, Massachusetts currently has more than one million illegal aliens residing in the state. It is expected to cost taxpayers over one billion dollars by 2025 to house them.
This number doesn’t include the 14,000 illegal Haitian immigrants Massachusetts has funded since 2022. CBS News noted that there are more than 3,500 illegal immigrants just in the state’s shelter system— which has been at capacity for months.
It’s like American citizens are the last consideration.
Is Governor Healy going to kick out more black Americans from their community centers to accommodate illegal aliens??

During his opening monologue on Thursday night, Greg Gutfeld mocked Democrats and the city of New York for their sham case against Trump as only he can.
Greg spared no one, from Stormy Daniels to Michael Cohen and Joe Biden.
He made the point that New York City can’t keep violent criminals in jail but want to lock up Trump for talking about his case, while all the Trump-haters are allowed to say whatever they want.
Partial transcript via FOX News:
On Tuesday, Judge Merchan held Donald Trump in contempt of court and fined him $9,000 for violating a gag order. Trump should have reached into his wallet, grabbed the $9,000 in cash and thrown it at the judge and said: “Here, go bang Stormy Daniels eight times.”
It’s funny: A city that can’t keep violent felons in jail wants to lock up a president for talking. Their priorities are more out-of-whack than a morning show hosted by people who hate each other.
Meanwhile, Judge Merchan’s daughter… a progressive political hack, is sending out solicitations invoking the Trump trial, raising millions for her clients. Among them: Adam Schiff, lead prosecutor in Trump’s first impeachment, who will hopefully use the money for a neck transplant. So Trump’s not allowed to talk. How did he react? Is the gag order unique? Unconstitutional? Corrupt?
Now let’s have a look at the people the judge hasn’t silenced, like Stormy Daniels. Usually when she opens her mouth, it only affects five dudes in a motel room with a camcorder. But these days, Stormy’s not taking things lying down.

You have undoubtedly heard the classic song ‘Hello Muddah, Hello Fadduh (A Letter from Camp)’ by Allan Sherman.
The song has now been updated to reflect the radical, anti-Israel protests on college campuses.
This is fantastic.
Lyrics via Twitter/X:
Hello Muddah, hello Faddah
I have joined Camp Intifada
Camp is very instigating
And they say the quad sprinkler will soon stop rainingThe tuition is so pricey
To attend a Poison Ivy
You remember Ilhan’s daughter
She’s now homeless for defending Jewish slaughterAll the comrades hate the Zios
Who lack pronouns in their bios
And we want to charm the Houthis
So we hold hands and chant ‘Death to the Yahudis’I’ve made new friends who are less white
And my Hebrew is now left-right
And when Jew kids, start to roll in
We demand that they all go back home to PolandLet me stay, oh Muddah, Faddah
Globalize the Intifada
Don’t bring me back to the suburbs;
Cancel my tuition for next yearLet me stay, I’ll proudly wear my Keffiyeh
And loudly shout “Death to America”
I know everything to say
I’ve been here one whole dayDearest father, darling mother
I’ll stay one way, or another
You paid thousands to this college
So our camp could make the janitor a hostageWait a minute, cops are coming
We’re uprising, they are stunning
Kindly send some food and water
Mother, father, I’m expelled from your alma mater

Jared Bernstein, an economic adviser to Joe Biden, was recently interviewed for a new documentary film and struggled to explain the relationship between the government and the money supply.
The clip is below and it’s really painful to watch.
The Washington Free Beacon reports:
WATCH: Biden’s Economic Adviser Tries and Fails To Explain How Money Works
A viral clip of an interview with President Joe Biden’s economic adviser Jared Bernstein shows the official struggling to explain why the U.S. government chooses to borrow money when it can just print more.
“The government definitely prints money, and it definitely lends that money … by selling bonds. Is that what they do? They sell bonds, yeah, they sell bonds. Right? Since they sell bonds, and people buy the bonds and lend them the money,” Bernstein, chair of the Council of Economic Advisers, said when asked why the federal government borrows currency it can print.
“I guess I’m just, I can’t really, I don’t get it. I don’t know what they’re talking about,” the economic adviser to Biden added. “Like, ’cause it’s like the government clearly prints money; it does it all the time. And it clearly borrows. Otherwise we wouldn’t be having [this] conversation. So I don’t think there’s anything confusing there.”

Lefty actor Mark Hamill made an appearance at the White House press briefing today for some reason. He apparently had just met with Joe Biden, again, who knows why?
If you’ve spent any time on Twitter/X, you know that Mark Hamill is more famous for his hatred of Trump than for his role as Luke Skywalker in the Star Wars movies.
His attempt to make Joe Biden look cool was beyond cringe.
The Hill reports:
Mark Hamill calls Biden ‘Joe-B-Wan Kenobi’ in White House press room appearance
Mark Hamill says the force is with President Biden — the actor made a surprise visit Friday to the White House briefing room and offered a “Star Wars”-inspired nickname for the commander in chief.
“How many of you had ‘Mark Hamill will lead the press briefing’ on your bingo cards?” Hamill, sporting a pair of sunglasses, told reporters at the top of the White House’s press briefing.
“I just got to meet the president, and he gave me these aviator glasses,” added Hamill, known for his role as Luke Skywalker.
Asked about his Oval Office visit with Biden, Hamill said, “I called him ‘Mr. President.’ He said, ‘You can call me Joe.’”
Then Hamill quipped, “I said, ‘Can I call you Joe-B-Wan Kenobi?” offering a Biden-inspired play on the name of the famed Jedi master character in the intergalactic franchise.
Touting Biden’s legislative accomplishments, Hamill exclaimed, “I want to say, once again, how grateful I am, and that just shows you that one person can be so influential and so positive in our lives.”
Do Democrats really think this is going to help Biden?

A new poll from Kaplan Strategies shows Donald Trump leading Joe Biden by 15 points in Michigan, a state that Biden won in 2020.
Is this poll an outlier? Other polls have shown Trump with an edge in Michigan, but not by this much.
Either way, this has got to strike fear in the hearts of Democrats.
RedState reported:
Race to the White House: Trump Is Trouncing Biden by 15-Points in This Key State That Went Blue in 2020
Six months ahead of the November election, former President Donald Trump is leading Democrat incumbent Joe Biden by a whopping 15 points in Michigan, a key swing state. According to a Kaplan Strategies survey, the former president polled 51 percent to 36 percent in the battleground state. The margin of error for the survey was plus/minus 3.5 percentage points.
The pollster reports Trump’s success is rooted in maintaining the stability of his favorability ratio, writing:
Key to Trump’s dominance in our poll has been his campaign’s ability to stabilize his favorable to unfavorable ratio to a degree better than Joe Biden has.
Abortion remains a major issue, with no consensus on how many weeks abortion should be legalized through, indicating that this issue is best served at the state level.
Other polls have also shown varying results for Michigan. An Emerson College/The Hill poll released earlier this week indicated Biden trailing Trump marginally in Michigan (44 percent to 45 percent), while a Bloomberg News and Morning Consult poll suggested Biden ahead of Trump (47 percent to 45 percent). However, Trump was polling ahead of Biden in six other key swing states, according to the latter poll, and was leasing in all the swing states in the Emerson poll.
This is pretty amazing if it’s accurate.
Kaplan had Michigan Trump +10 48/38 and Wisconsin +2 41/39 in late February.
Wisconsin now Trump +10 48/38. Trump's share jumped 7 points.
Michigan now Trump +15, 51/36 and Trump gained 3 share.
AZ and PA seem new. Kaplan's been doing a lot of GOP primary polling this cycle. https://t.co/0OpGuGp10d pic.twitter.com/uVAr3KHV8S

The country of Iran has apparently offered scholarships to any college protesters who have been expelled over their anti-Israel protests.
We should hope that at least some of these students take them up on the offer.
George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley had some fun with this, noting that it could represent a real opportunity for these students to learn something about the world.
Come for the Education, Stay for the Amputation: Iran Offers Free Scholarships to U.S. Students
Now this could truly be educational. Students protesting on our campuses have been offered free scholarships at Shiraz University in Fars. So, while Northwestern has reached a settlement with protesters to give scholarships to Palestinian students and positions to Palestinian faculty, U.S. protesters can now go to Iran for their education.
Mohammad Moazzeni, head of Shiraz University told media that “students and even professors who have been expelled or threatened with expulsion can continue their studies at Shiraz University and I think that other universities in Shiraz as well as Fars Province are also prepared [to provide the conditions].”
This could be the single most transformative educational experience of their lives. Of course, Iran is better known for floggings than free speech.
Iran is particularly prone to such contradictions like executing homosexuals while denying that there are any homosexuals in Iran or objecting to the treatment of protesters in the West while jailing, beating and killing protesters.
Warning: vegan meals are not available at Iranian protests. Instead, it has ordered the arrest and killing of writers and artists while holding such fun events as a cartoon competition on the Holocaust.
The students who are carrying around signs that say ‘queers for Palestine’ might be in for a rude awakening in Iran.
Feminist students might also get quite a wake up call.

A bunch of partiers on a boat in Florida were recently caught on camera dumping cans of garbage overboard, directly into the ocean. The trash wasn’t bagged, so as the boat speeded forward, the dumping caused a whole field of floating debris.
The good news is that these people were busted. No arrests were made in connection to the garbage dumping, but they got lots of hours of community service.
You have to wonder what these people were thinking.
FOX News reports:
Boozy Boca Bash partiers dump heaps of garbage into Atlantic as over a dozen arrested in annual aquatic rave
Boca Bashers put on a disgusting show when they dumped bins of trash off a boat after a wild, boozy weekend.
The co-eds raced into the Atlantic Ocean from Lake Boca, through south Florida’s iconic Boca Raton Inlet, where a YouTuber caught them on camera dumping full drums of empty bottles and garbage into the water.
The viral video captured the trail of floating debris after the party seekers zoomed off in their boat. An overhead drone pointed at the front of the boat recorded them waving and laughing.
“It just really infuriates you to see someone trash the ocean like that,” a local boater, Rodrigo Samsing, told Fox affiliate WSVN after seeing the video. “You know, nobody else on the boat tried to stop them. Everybody was just celebrating.”
Boca Bash isn’t connected to the city of Boca Raton. Because it’s on the water, it falls under the jurisdiction of the state. In this case, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) is the lead agency.

Joe Rogan recently had Tulsi Gabbard on his podcast and part of their discussion was about the madness we are seeing on college campuses today.
Rogan pointed out that many colleges and universities have become little more than progressive indoctrination centers and referred to them as ‘cult camps.’
He also pointed out that the ideology these students are getting from these schools is spreading out and infiltrating nearly every aspect of our lives.
Real Clear Politics provides a transcript:
JOE ROGAN: With the open borders, you have all these people funneling into the country and then you have an erosion of confidence in our entire system because people are very aware of that. The more people are let out of jail after committing violent crimes, the more people who are aware of that. If you look at the whole picture that is in play now, particularly with the open borders and giving people plane tickets and flying them to all these different cities.
If I was going to try to destroy the country, that’s how I would do it. If I was going to try to destroy the country, I would radicalize the kids, give them the stupidest ideas, and run them in their head. Boys can be girls. Girls can be boys. Boys can compete against girls in sports if they think they are a girl. “Queers for Palestine.” Death to the Jews. Yell it out, unironically on campuses.
Have the presidents of those colleges and universities defend it, which was wild, with cameras on them!…
It shows how they live in a bubble and don’t interact with the real world, and when they did thew shock was probably horrifying to realize how most people feel about what they said. “It’s not harassment unless it’s actionable?” Like, what are you saying? You’re saying you have to kill Jews and then it is harassment? Isn’t that a little late?…
I think we are sending our kids to cult camps. They get indoctrinated into this… That’s supposed to be Harvard? That’s supposed to be the smartest people amongst us?

Rep. Byron Donalds, a Republican from Florida, was at one of the campus protests at George Washington University this week, when a man accused him of being a ‘race traitor’ and of being an ‘Uncle Tom.’
Nothing triggers a leftist like a black Republican.
Isn’t it great when leftists openly identify themselves as idiotic bigots?
RedState reported:
Valid comparisons between these demonstrations and the Antifa/Black Lives Matter-led riots from 2020 and the Occupy Wall Street encampments from 2011 have also been made, with Soros funding connections also being alleged – and confirmed.
It is perhaps with all of that in mind that Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) dunked an unhinged agitator during a tour of the George Washington University pro-Hamas encampment on Wednesday with an implied question about the man’s age. Here’s how the exchange went down:
“How much is AIPAC paying you, you bastard?” the man sneered as Donalds brushed the remark off, the footage shows.
“How much is AIPAC paying you, you race-traitor,” the man added, prompting a head-turn from Donalds, 45, and groans from some in the crowd surrounding the lawmaker.
“Outside agitators aren’t allowed. You’re working for a foreign entity, you bastard,” the man went on as he was motioned away.
The “peaceful protester” also called Donalds the derogatory racial slur “Uncle Tom.” Donalds looked at the guy momentarily before insinuating that it was him who was the “outside agitator,” not Donalds.
“That guy’s really old to be in college,” Donalds replied, before resuming what he was saying elsewhere to other students and reporters.

Democrats are reportedly in a panic over the Gaza protests because they think the images of campus takeovers are pushing Americans to the right.
They have good reasons to be panicked. Trump is already leading in almost every swing state and one of the reasons is because the country is sick and tired of the antics of the radical left.
Joe Biden’s total silence and lack of action is only going to make things worse for them.
Axios reported:
Democrats enter panic mode as Gaza protests erupt
House and Senate Democrats’ anxiety is spiking as pro-Palestinian protests on college campuses around the country kick into overdrive.
Why it matters: The protests are fueling a volatile political dynamic sparked by the Oct. 7 attack and the Israel-Hamas war just as the 2024 election comes into view.
- “The longer they continue, and the worse that they get, the worse it’s going to be for the election overall,” one House Democrat told Axios.
- The demonstrations, the lawmaker warned, are “bringing out [the public’s] most conservative side.”
Driving the news: In the last 24 hours, protests on college campuses from New York to California have escalated in severity…
What they’re saying: Rep. Annie Kuster (D-N.H.), chair of the center-left New Democrat Coalition acknowledged many Democrats “have been, kind of, holding back” on weighing in on the protests.
Rick Moran comments at PJ Media:
Democrats are in full hand-wringing mode over the anti-Israel protests on campus. The louder the protesters scream about “Free Palestine,” the more nervous the Democrats become.
They know that there aren’t many potential Donald Trump voters yelling antisemitic epithets at Jewish students from “Gaza Liberation Zones.” These were Joe Biden voters in 2020 and may yet be again. In fact, as close a race as the 2024 presidential race is going to be. Biden is going to need these antisemites to win.
As much as Democrats want to sympathize with the pro-Hamas protesters, they know they have to walk a fine line.
The Democrats created this monster, but they can’t control it and they can’t survive without it.
It’s a perfect storm for them.

The Associated Press thinks this is still about the conflict in Gaza:
Violence erupts on campuses as protesters and counter-protesters clash over the war in Gaza
Counter-protesters “forcefully” attacked a pro-Palestinian encampment at UCLA early Wednesday, the university’s chancellor said, and activists clashed with police officers who destroyed their tents at the University of Wisconsin in Madison, part of a series of escalating violence on some college campuses over the war in Gaza.
UCLA administrators and campus police delayed intervening and calling for law enforcement backup in the brawl on the Los Angeles campus, prompting widespread condemnation from Muslim students to the city’s mayor to California Gov. Gavin Newsom.
The counter-protesters, some of whom carried Israeli flags, threw traffic cones and chairs, released pepper spray, and pulled down the barricade surrounding the encampment. University officials said 15 people were injured in the confrontation, including one person who was hospitalized.
The chaotic scenes unfolded Wednesday after police burst into a building occupied by anti-war protesters at Columbia University on Tuesday night, breaking up a demonstration that had paralyzed the school.

Left wing late night host Stephen Colbert used his platform this week to defend the campus protests where Jewish students are being threatened, harassed and even assaulted.
Colbert has no choice in this matter because he knows that Democrats can’t win without the support of their radical base.
He even tried to compare these protests to the campus protests during the Vietnam War. Does anyone remember Vietnam War protests that singled out Jewish people?
Besides, this isn’t about war, this is a call for a socialist revolution. They have admitted that.

Stephen Colbert Defends Anti-Israel Campus Protesters After Trump Praises NYPD Response
CBS’ late-night comedian Stephen Colbert defended the anti-Israel protesters who have taken over university campuses across the country after former President Donald Trump praised police in New York for their response to protesters at Columbia University.
On Tuesday’s show, Stephen Colbert said the public should support the protesters “as long as they are peaceful.” But Colbert didn’t mention that in some cases, protesters have behaved violently. At Columbia, students smashed through windows and doors to occupy Hamilton Hall.
At some schools, demonstrators have blocked other students from attending class. At George Washington University, one protester was seen with a sign saying “Final Solution” — a reference to the Nazi’s extermination of Jews.
Colbert bypassed these incidences during Tuesday’s segment.
Colbert tries to make this about the First Amendment and free speech. Taking over and occupying a campus is not free speech.
Here’s the video if you care to watch:

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.
Breitbart News reports:
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:
– Wisconsin: 48 percent
– Pennsylvania: 50 percent
– Michigan: 50 percent

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.

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.

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.
The Washington Examiner reports:
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.

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.
ABC News reports:
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:

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?

Funny how the media is overlooking that. These are just protests, we’re told.
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.

The last time we checked in on Joe Biden’s planned ban on menthol cigarettes, he was considering postponing the effort because his campaign and Democrats are worried about angering black voters.
Now it pretty much confirmed that Biden is not going to try to put the ban in effect before the election, proving once and for all that all they really care about is votes.
If Biden wins in November, this ban will take effect in the months that follow and you can take that to the bank.
FOX News reports:
Biden admin abruptly delays plan to ban menthol cigarettes amid widespread opposition
The Biden administration abruptly announced Friday that it will delay regulations banning menthol cigarettes amid widespread opposition to the proposal.
In a statement, Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Xavier Becerra said his agency would not move to finalize the regulations and pointed to opposition from civil rights activists. Since they were first proposed by the HHS’ Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the regulations have sparked a contentious debate between health advocates and civil liberties and business groups.
“This rule has garnered historic attention and the public comment period has yielded an immense amount of feedback, including from various elements of the civil rights and criminal justice movement,” Becerra said in a statement. “It’s clear that there are still more conversations to have, and that will take significantly more time.”…
Groups representing minorities, like the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement and the nonprofit National Action Network — the latter of which was founded by civil rights leader the Rev. Al Sharpton — argued that banning menthol cigarettes while not restricting non-menthol cigarettes “puts a microscope on minority communities.”
Don’t white people smoke menthol cigarettes, too? Isn’t it a bit racist for the Biden administration to assume that this issue only affects black people?

Fortunately no major injuries were reported but two people were taken to the hospital with minor injuries, according to Omaha Police Chief Todd Schmaderer.
The Omaha Fire Department will be conducting detailed searches of the neighborhoods hit throughout the night Friday. Chief Bossman said crews are facing several obstacles including power lines down, gas leaks, unstable structures and trees down.
“We understand the impact of this event on our community.” Bossman said. “We understand numerous families are going to be devastated by the destruction of their property.”

If you want to know how insane the student protests of Israel have gotten on some college campuses, look no further than Columbia Student Khymani James.
James is the reported leader of the encampment at the far left school and was recently caught on camera saying some pretty shocking and potentially violent things. He has since tried to backtrack on these comments but they are out there for all to see.
One has to wonder at this point, what someone has to do in order to get expelled from Columbia.
The Daily Wire reported:
‘Zionists Don’t Deserve To Live’: Meet The Leader Of Columbia University’s Anti-Israel Encampment
One of the most vocal student activists leading the anti-Israel Gaza Solidarity Encampment at Columbia University, Khymani James, openly stated in an live-stream of an official university inquiry in January that “Zionists don’t deserve to live.”
James, who states in the hearing that he goes by “he/she/they” pronouns, live-streamed his meeting with Columbia’s Center for Student Success and Intervention, where he doubled down on an Instagram post that sparked the report. In the report, which he reads aloud at the start of the meeting, James warned Zionists who may want to “meet up and fight” and that he “fights to kill.”
“Do you see why that’s problematic in any way?” a Columbia employee asked James during the hearing, to which he responded: “No.”
James, a junior and spokesperson of the Columbia University Apartheid Divest group, has been the visible face of the protests that have garnered national attention. He appears to still be a student at the university, and has been one of the key organizers of the encampment.
Watch the two clips below:

Joe Biden and Obama are going to hold a fundraising event in June with liberal Hollywood celebrities, their most loyal constituency.
George Clooney and Julia Roberts are reportedly in talks to appear at the event.
Democrats are trying to repeat the success they had with a fundraiser in New York City featuring Stephen Colbert and other celebs.
Axios reports:
Scoop: Biden, Obama aiming for glitzy fundraiser in L.A.
The Biden campaign is in talks with former President Obama about appearing with President Biden at a star-studded Los Angeles fundraiser in mid-June, according to people familiar with the plan.
- George Clooney and Jeffrey Katzenberg are being lined up as hosts, the sources said.
Why it matters: It’s set to be the Hollywood sequel — currently with just two presidents — of the “three presidents” show in New York City that featured Biden, Obama and former President Clinton last month.
- That event brought in $26 million for Biden’s re-election effort, setting a fundraising record for Democrats in a single evening, according to Biden aides.
- Given Katzenberg’s role as a co-chair of Biden’s campaign — and his deep connections in the movie industry — Democrats are optimistic that the Biden-Obama appearance, plus a smattering of stars, will lead another historic fundraising haul.
- Other big names, including Julia Roberts, also might attend, according to people familiar with the matter.
This is so predictable.

Joe Biden and the Democrat party get special treatment from about 99 percent of the media but apparently, it still isn’t enough.
People at the Biden White House are angry at the New York Times for not being loyal enough. They actually think that the incredibly liberal newspaper is too biased against them and too nice to Trump.
This claim is positively delusional. The media bends over backwards to not report negative news about Biden while demonizing Trump constantly.
What this really shows is that people in the Biden camp are sensitive and scared.
NewsBusters has details:
The comical tale of liberal eating themselves began with a seemingly innocuous mix-up between a Times reporter not on the White House beat being unaware with how to attribute quotes from a junior White House press aide becoming a hissy fit that resulted in the Times temporarily being kicked off the administration’s “‘tier one’ email list for background information about various briefings and other materials”.
“Biden’s closest aides had come to see the Times as arrogant, intent on setting its own rules and unwilling to give Biden his due. Inside the paper’s D.C. bureau, the punitive response seemed to typify a press operation that was overly sensitive and determined to control coverage of the president,” Stokols explained.
Stokols further summarized his tome as based on “interviews with two dozen people on both sides” about “the relationship between the Democratic president and the country’s newspaper of record — for years the epitome of a liberal press in the eyes of conservatives” that’s become “remarkably tense, beset by misunderstandings, grudges and a general lack of trust.”
Not surprisingly, Team Biden must think they’re owed Obama-like snuff pieces seeing as how, in their mind, The Times has “fall[en] short in a make-or-break moment for American democracy, stubbornly refusing to adjust its coverage” away from “impartial neutrality, often blurring the asymmetries between former President Donald Trump and Biden when it comes to their perceived flaws” when America itself is at stake.
Again, this is delusional thinking. If we had an honest media, Biden would be ten points lower in the polls.

FOX News went into a diner in Pennsylvania this morning and spoke to a group of veterans, including a man who served in WWII.
The vets were asked specifically about the anti-Israel and anti-American protests happening on college campuses. All of the men that they spoke to registered absolute disgust with what’s happening.
One vet wondered why law enforcement is being forced to allow it to happen in some places. Another vet suggests deportations.

Veterans disgusted by anti-Israel protests, flag-burning: ‘Disgrace’ to America
A group of U.S. military veterans shared their disgust over the wave of anti-Israel protests spreading across college campuses.
“They’re a disgrace to the United States of America. Burning flags, talking against the country. They’re not happy here? Deport them like anybody else if they’re not an American. It’s a shame and a disgrace,” a World War II veteran named George said on “Fox & Friends” Thursday.
“These veterans died and got injured and everything else, so they could protest against the United States of America and burn flags and everything else. Total disgrace.”
After protests rocked Columbia and Yale campuses, demonstrations broke out at the University of Texas-Austin and the University of Southern California Wednesday…
“They’re all nasty, nasty people. They’ve got nothing better to do with their lives than to say that. It’s so disgusting,” another veteran told Lawrence Jones at the Eagle Diner in Warminster, Pa., about 30 miles north of Philadelphia.

Comedian and actor Jon Lovitz appeared on the Jesse Watters show last night and called out his fellow entertainers and celebrities for not speaking up about the antisemitism we see unfolding on college campuses.
Lovitz suggests that just like many years ago, some people can’t quite believe what is happening. He tells an interesting story about Jews in Germany before the Holocaust and the dangers of not speaking out.
He also talks about two specific students he knows who are dealing with this and what they’ve been forced to go through.
Real Clear Politics provides a partial transcript:
JON LOVITZ: I don’t know. I think people who are Jewish like myself are naïve and thought there’s not all of his antisemitism. I think it’s always been there, it’s just coming out. But what you kind of set about, you know, you respect everybody. Whatever their religion, race, you respect everybody. That’s what Judaism there religion is about, and I still think people have a right to protest peacefully. Normally you would get a permit and they get a place to protest. I don’t know why they are allowed to do it on the school. And I don’t know how people that aren’t students are camping out in the middle of the school. Is in that trespassing? I don’t understand.
JESSE WATTERS: What I don’t understand is you have the president of the United States, the white house, they won’t even touch this. Would you expect more from the leadership in this country?
LOVITZ: Yeah. I think anyone doing this against anybody like this should stop it. I mean preventing students from going to class, it’s ridiculous. It happened to a friend of mine. I was speaking to her this morning. She has one kid at Duke and another at Cornell. At Duke months ago they started doing a protest. They said no you can’t do that here and they’ve had no problems sense. Cornell did not and they’ve had all of these problems. Her daughter could not go to class, take a test, the teacher would not respond to her and she had trouble retaking it. Finally got to. But it’s bad. And I don’t know why — people say why are you speaking up? Why aren’t other people who are way bigger names not saying anything quake my answer is, I don’t know. I think they are either afraid, afraid they will lose — hurt their business, but I feel like it’s so bad how can you not say something? You have to.
Watch the video below:
One of the reasons people are afraid to speak out is because so much of this is tied to politics. Liberals don’t want to cross the far left.

The White House Correspondents’ Dinner or ‘Nerd Prom’ is happening this weekend on Saturday night. This is the night where a bunch of DC and NYC journalists get together with Democrats and make fun of Republicans for a few hours.
According to new reports, the anti-Israel mob is also planning to attend the event, which could be very interesting.
Most of the journalists who will be attending are ideologically aligned with the protesters, so there shouldn’t be any problems, right?
The Washington Examiner reports:
Pro-Palestinian protests aim to ‘shut down’ Biden, journalist ‘Nerd Prom’
Pro-Palestinian groups and journalists are readying a rally to shut down the annual White House Correspondents’ Association dinner Saturday at the Washington Hilton over the Biden administration’s handling of the Gaza-Hamas crisis.
“Shut down the White House Correspondents’ Dinner,” one group, the Party for Socialism and Liberation, said in an online message. They are calling for protesters to gather down the street from the hotel two hours before the glitzy dinner begins.
Another group, the Committee to Protect Journalists, is urging a boycott by White House reporters who suspend their arms-length relationship with Biden aides for a night of elbow rubbing at the so-called “nerd prom.”
“The White House Correspondents’ Dinner is an embodiment of media manipulation, trading journalistic ethics for access. For journalists to fraternize at an event with President Biden and Vice President Harris would be to normalize, sanitize, and whitewash the administration’s role in genocide,” said the committee.

FOX News political analyst Gianno Caldwell is from Chicago and says that people in the city have had it with the influx of illegal immigrants and are very serious about voting for Trump in November.
Caldwell says that he is in regular communication with other Chicagoans and that there are enough of these voters to turn Illinois red in the 2024 election.

Chicago native says residents livid over liberal mayor’s new migrant funding, ready to vote for Trump
Chicago residents are furious at Mayor Brandon Johnson and the city council for approving a $70 million proposal to bolster the city’s sanctuary city resources, and some think the outrage could favor Republicans in November.
Fox News political analyst Gianno Caldwell, who grew up in the Windy City, argued that residents will be voting for President Trump in droves during “The Faulkner Focus,” stemming from their anger over the city prioritizing migrants over their citizens.
“They are doing the right thing by saying we’re coming directly for your seats, including you, Mayor Brandon Johnson,” Caldwell told host Harris Faulkner on Tuesday. “[Johnson’s] message to Chicagoans has been quite clear. Get on the back of the bus. Now that’s everybody, but especially those Black voters who are the reason he’s mayor today. Get on the back of the bus.”
“These voters in Chicago… I speak to a lot of them pretty regularly. Pretty weekly. They’re serious about voting for Trump. They’re serious about handing the election in Illinois to Donald Trump, as you only need 20% of Cook County, which is within Chicago,” he continued.

The Daily Show co-hosts Jordan Klepper and Ronny Chien devoted an extended segment on Tuesday’s episode to Biden’s recent speech to the United Steelworkers Union in Pittsburgh. In his speech, Biden claimed that his uncle, Ambrose Finnegan, was shot down near Papua New Guinea during World War II and that his body was never recovered because “there were a lot of cannibals” in New Guinea at the time.
Even left-wing news outlets including New York magazine and the Associated Press have cast doubt on Biden’s tale…

A video that has gone viral on social media shows a student protester at New York University who seems confused about why she is even there.
As often happens in a moment like this, young progressives will flock to a protest or cause without understanding all of the details. They just know that their friends on the left are doing it and therefore it must be a good cause.
This is so telling about this entire movement.

Woman’s Reason for Joining Pro-Palestinian Protest Goes Viral
A woman’s reasoning for joining a pro-Palestinian protest at New York University (NYU) has gone viral on social media this week.
On Wednesday, former New York City Mayor and lawyer to former President Donald Trump, Rudy Giuliani shared a video on X, formerly Twitter, showcasing an interview with a pro-Palestinian protester.
In the video, the individual is asked about the goal of protesters at NYU, to which the person responded, “I think the goal is showing our support for Palestine and demanding that NYU stops.”
“I honestly don’t know all of what NYU is doing … I really don’t know,” the individual says.
As the video continues, the individual is seen speaking to another fellow protester and asking if she is aware of why they are protesting.
“I wish I was more educated,” the second protester is heard saying.
Here’s the video:

An anti-Israel mob formed in front of the New York home of Senator Chuck Schumer tonight and the protesters were arrested almost immediately.
Funny how quickly arrests can be made in a case like this depending on who is being threatened.
Jewish students don’t get this kind of swift protection. Neither do conservative Supreme Court justices.
Breitbart News reports:
Hundreds of anti-Israel protesters gathered outside of Sen. Chuck Schumer’s (D-NY) home in Brooklyn, calling for the United States to “stop arming Israel.”
Video footage posted to X showed what appeared to be hundreds of protesters gathered in the street outside of Schumer’s home for a “Seder in the Streets” on the second day of the Passover Jewish holiday.
A seder is a Passover holiday meal, which includes songs, stories, reading, and eating special foods, along with other traditions. For those who live in Israel, it is held on the first night of Passover, but for those outside of Israel, it is held on the first two nights of Passover…
Officers from the New York Police Department were captured on video telling protesters outside of Schumer’s home that they were “blocking vehicular traffic” and would be arrested for disorderly conduct if they did not “move and get onto the sidewalk.”
Here’s a clip of the protest:

George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley has been one of the most outspoken legal critics of the New York court case that Trump is dealing with right now.
During an appearance on FOX News today, Turley called the case an embarrassment, saying that he agrees with Trump.
He said that he can’t even believe that they went forward with the case they have.
Transcript via Real Clear Politics:
JONATHAN TURLEY: If you polled people and ask if Trump was responsible for the bubonic plague, we would end up with the same 35%. We have these hard numbers on either end of the poll when it comes to Trump. They don’t move no matter what the subject is.
What is clear is in this case, Trump is right. This is an embarrassment. The fact that we are actually talking about this case being presented in a New York courtroom leaves me in utter disbelief.
The arguments today did in fact capture all the problems here. You had this misdemeanor under state law that had run out, this is going back related to the 2016 election. They zapped it back into life by alleging that there was a campaign finance violation under the federal laws that doesn’t exist. The Department of Justice doesn’t view it this way.
On top of that, you got these tough factual issues that were laid out well by the Trump team. Saying someone else designated this as a legal expense. He was actually paid far in excess of this because this was a legal account.

The city of Santa Monica in California is constructing a new apartment building for the homeless, which sounds smart, until you find out that the cost is going to be one million per unit.
How can the cost run this high? Are they going to be luxury units? Or is it possible that lots of people have their hands out in this project and are getting wealthy in the process?
The cost just doesn’t make sense.
Breitbart News reports:
Santa Monica to Construct $1M Per Unit Apartment Building for Homeless
Santa Monica, California, is preparing to construct an apartment building for the homeless that would cost roughly $1 million per unit.
The apartment building, which will be built in Santa Monica and will be home to “122 apartments” and two levels of underground parking, will cost more than $123 million, according to the website for the City of Santa Monica.
A second design concept on the website found that the project could cost even more, totaling more than $200 million for 196 apartments.
“Moving forward in bringing affordable and permanent supportive housing to city-owned land is a key step in our strategy to fulfill our Housing Element requirement,” Santa Monica Mayor Phil Brock said in a statement. “I look forward to the next steps and ultimately seeing families move into these new homes and thrive.”
Construction on the apartment building would not begin until 2028, with the project estimated to be completed for residents to move in by 2030, according to the city’s website.
So not only is the project ridiculously expensive, it’s going to take years to complete.
The city of Santa Monica has approved a new apartment complex for the homeless that will cost a staggering $1 million per unit. The $123 million project will include just 122 units. It was approved days after an audit found California spent $24 billion to tackle homelessness…

For months now, colleges and universities across the country have been allowing antisemitic demonstrations to take place on campus. Over the last week, however, things have gotten really bad, particularly at Columbia, Yale, NYU and other elite schools.
The rhetoric at these events is disturbing and hateful. Campus activists somehow think they’re on the right side of the issue, even though they are supporting Hamas, a terror group.
It has gotten so bad at some schools that Jewish students don’t feel safe and are leaving campus.
Republicans in the Senate are now warning these schools that they could lose their federal funding if this doesn’t end.
Townhall reports:
Senators Deliver Message to Biden on Schools Allowing ‘Pro-Terrorist Mobs’
The disgusting displays of at-times violent antisemitism that began at Columbia University and spread to several other schools in recent days are a testament to what’s wrong with leftist-dominated higher education. After years of unconstitutional attempts to block conservative speakers from their campuses in the name of fragile leftist students’ safety, they now have little if any concern that those same intellectually weak leftists are calling for Israel to be eliminated and Jews to be murdered.
Now, more than 25 members of the United States Senate led by Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) are demanding that schools allowing, tolerating, or encouraging such shocking and often unlawful displays of anti-Jew and anti-Israel hate face accountability and a loss of taxpayer funds. The letter was also signed by Senators Lindsey Graham (R-SC), John Barrasso (R-WY), Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), Katie Boyd Britt (R-AL), Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV), John Cornyn (R-TX), Kevin Cramer (R-ND), Mike Crapo (R-ID), Ted Cruz (R-TX), Steve Daines (R-MT), Joni Ernst (R-IA), Chuck Grassley (R-IA), Josh Hawley (R-MO), John Hoeven (R-ND), Ron Johnson (R-WI), John Kennedy (R-LA), James Lankford (R-OK), Mitch McConnell (R-KY), Jerry Moran (R-KS), Pete Ricketts (R-NE), Jim Risch (R-ID), Marco Rubio (R-FL), Rick Scott (R-FL), Dan Sullivan (R-AK), John Thune (R-SD), and Thom Tillis (R-NC).

Saturday Night Live has not been funny in years, but a 2015 sketch is going viral on social media for implying that going to a liberal college is like joining the ISIS terror group.
People are identifying with the sketch in light of the pro-Hamas demonstrations taking place at Columbia University, Yale, and many other elite schools.
SNL probably couldn’t even make this sketch today because it would offend too many people in their fan base.
Newsweek reports:
SNL Sketch Goes Viral Amid Columbia Protests: ‘Predicted the Future’
A 2015 Saturday Night Live sketch about ISIS has gone viral after it was posted by a Rabbi who said it “predicted the future”, and commenters have linked it to the ongoing tension at Columbia University in New York City.
Classes have been canceled at the university as a pro-Palestinian protest encampment on the campus refuses to budge, despite police arresting more than 100 people on Thursday…
In the sketch, guest host Dakota Johnson plays a student being dropped off at a bus terminal to head to college for the first time by her dad (Taran Killam). She assures him not to worry about her because some friends were coming to pick her up.
A pickup truck then rolls up behind them bearing the flags of terrorist group ISIS, and men in army fatigues wielding machine guns and bazookas riding in the back.
“Looks like your ride’s here,” Killam says, adding, “you be careful.” Johnson leans down to the window and says, “dad it’s just ISIS.”

The city of Denver, Colorado is collapsing under the weight of its new population of illegal border crossers.
The mayor just cut police funding by $8 million in order to keep catering to illegals, but it’s just not enough according to one illegal immigrant advocacy group.
Apparently, six months of free housing and food is insulting. How about nothing then? Is that an option?
FOX News reports:
Denver migrant advocates say six months of free rent, food not enough: ‘A slap in the face’ and ‘offensive’
Migrants and an advocacy group in Denver decried the city’s new Asylum Seekers Program that offers six months of free housing, calling it “insufficient” and “offensive” despite the mayor cutting the city’s emergency budget to accommodate the migrant surge.
The sanctuary city has been struggling to stretch its limited resources to support the growing number of migrants making their way to Denver. More than 40,000 migrants have found their way to the city since December 2022, more per capita than any other U.S. city – at a total cost of around $68 million, the New York Post reported.
Last week, Denver Mayor Mike Johnston announced that his city’s migrant program would now provide what he called “a long-term, sustainable response” to address the migrant “crisis” locally. The program will offer six months of free housing, food assistance, workforce training and more to the roughly 1,000 migrants currently in the city’s shelter system as they wait for authorization to work, according to the New York Post. Due to the federal asylum seeker law, it can take up to 180 days to obtain working authorization.
It’s like we’re living in bizarro world.

Hollywood as we knew it for years is pretty much dead.
Box office sales are often disappointing as fewer and fewer people are willing to pay high ticket prices for the woke and preachy crap that keeps getting churned out in the name of entertainment.
David Mamet, one of the few openly conservative people in the entertainment industry has had enough, and called out Hollywood over this at a recent book festival.
The Los Angeles Times reports:
David Mamet slams Hollywood’s ‘garbage’ DEI initiatives. ‘It’s fascist totalitarianism’
David Mamet is not done lambasting the liberal establishment in Hollywood.
“DEI is garbage,” said the Pulitzer Prize-winning author to a packed house at the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books. “It’s fascist totalitarianism.”
The playwright and director did not shy away from his trademark expletives or controversy as he spoke about his tell-all memoir, “Everywhere an Oink Oink,” with Times deputy entertainment editor Matt Brennan at USC’s Newman Recital Hall.
His book, published in the fall, details his last 40 years in the moviemaking business and falling out of grace as his politics shifted him from a progressive “red diaper baby” of two communist Jewish parents raised on the South Side of Chicago to a present-day Trump-loving conservative…
“The [film industry] has little business improving everybody’s racial understanding as does the fire department,” Mamet said to a few loud laughs in the crowd. He argued that his colleagues are better off selling popcorn than trying to improve representation for women, queer talent and other marginalized groups.
He is not wrong.

National Public Radio has been in the news quite a bit lately. A longtime employee blew the whistle on how the organization went fully left-wing activist after Trump won in 2016. For that, he was suspended and then quit.
Then their newest CEO was exposed as a liberal wingnut, as if we couldn’t have guessed that.
Now Trump and others are calling for them to be defunded and that’s a good thing because their lunacy keeps being shown to be worse than anyone even knew.
A twitter user with a good eye was recently looking at their archives and realized that they have placed a ‘trigger warning’ on the Declaration of Independence. Yes, really.
NewsBusters reports:
Hopelessly Woke NPR Places Trigger Warning on Declaration of Independence
The hopeless wokeness of tax-funded National Public Radio has been confirmed by NPR senior business editor Uri Berliner, who started shockwaves with his Free Press essay “I’ve Been at NPR for 25 Years. Here’s How We Lost America’s Trust” providing chapter and verse of how NPR had been take over fully by the left, and as a result blowing several major stories like Russiagate, the Hunter Biden laptop, and dismissing the coronavirus lab leak theory. For his whistleblowing efforts, the veteran journalist Berliner was suspended from NPR for five days before resigning…
One example of anti-American wokeness is the “editor’s note” NPR staff felt obliged to place on archived stories about its on-air reading every Independence Day of the Declaration of Independence in full, an honorable tradition apparently now consigned to the ash-heap of history.
Yes, one of America’s founding documents now requires a trigger warning, in the view of partially government funded radio (hat tip: Masks are bad, actually on X):
Editor’s note on July 8, 2022: This story quotes the U.S. Declaration of Independence — a document that contains offensive language about Native Americans, including a racial slur.
NPR’s embrace of absolute wokeness is best symbolized by their decision to end the tradition of reading the Declaration of Independence on the Fourth of July. Archived versions now have this trigger warning: https://t.co/5vEZvcN5F3 pic.twitter.com/LTPCq1eyz0

Joe Biden’s effort to buy the votes of young Americans by ‘forgiving’ student loan debt – something the U.S. Supreme Court told him he couldn’t do – is benefiting wealthy families, not the needy and downtrodden as Democrats would have you believe.
This is maddening.

— Karol Markowicz (@karol) April 19, 2024
From the Free Press:
Biden continues paying off successful young voters: Sorry, I mean “forgiving student debt.” Biden this week paid off another $7.4 billion in student loans, making his total student loan cancellation something like $153 billion. And by cancellation, I mean tax dollars were used to make the ledger go to zero.
How much exactly? From Penn Wharton’s analysis: “We estimate that President Biden’s recently announced ‘New Plans’ to provide relief to student borrowers will cost $84 billion, in addition to the $475 billion that we previously estimated for President Biden’s SAVE plan.” But that goes to really needy people, right? Well, actually, at least 750,000 of those households are “making over $312,000 in average household income.”
Meanwhile, to anyone who questions this allocation of resources, the White House answer is to shame them from official White House accounts by listing how much in pandemic loans were forgiven for House Republicans who own individual small business, which is weird because the reason businesses needed pandemic relief was because the White House banned them from operating. It’s a trap! And the only answer is to pay off every Media Studies PhD student’s loan. Colleges, for their part, are now charging up to $100,000 a year. Yes, literally. And since that’s ultimately going to be paid for by the taxpayers, why work to make it less expensive? Why cut corners when you need to remodel the cafeteria?
This is such blatant corruption.
Joe Biden is robbing from plumbers, electricians, and millions of hard working Americans to pay off the mountains of debt from folks who make over $300,000 a year.

Remember last year, when it was leaked that the left was trying to ban gas stoves and people like Chuck Schumer condescendingly insisted that no one is coming for your gas stove?
That was a lie. They are coming for your gas stove.
A climate change group called the ‘Gas Leaks Action Campaign’ has serious financial backing and is working with prominent liberal Democrats in the House and Senate.
FOX News reports:
Left-wing climate group with shady backing takes prominent role against gas stoves
A secretive climate activist group with significant financial backing is quietly taking on a more prominent role advocating against natural, gas-powered appliances, like stoves.
The Gas Leaks Action Campaign — which appears to have been first established in late 2021 or early 2022 — recently launched a $1 million ad campaign warning of the dangers posed by natural gas, the largest-ever effort of its kind. The group states on its website that natural gas harms the environment, pollutes the air inside homes and makes stoves “constantly at risk of explosion.”
The group has also spearheaded a campaign against the American Gas Association (AGA), the nation’s leading industry group representing natural gas providers. At a Washington, D.C. event earlier this month, Gas Leaks hosted Sens. Ed Markey, D-Mass., and Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., along with several environmental groups like the Sierra Club to blast the AGA’s lobbying activities.
“Instead of turning off the tap on fossil fuels, our country has been flooding the market with gas and, unless we do something, we are all going to drown,” said Markey, who is an original sponsor of the Green New Deal.
It’s so funny how they assured us all that this wasn’t happening, and yet, here we are.

Massachusetts Transportation Secretary Monica Tibbits-Nutt is trying to find new ways to generate revenue for the state. Taxpayers are apparently not already being squeezed hard enough in the state.
During a meeting with a liberal group this week, she described her efforts and vowed to chase new revenue aggressively.
It’s disturbing to hear a state leader talking in this way, frankly suggesting that she is going after ‘everybody who has money.’
The Commonwealth Beacon reported:
The secretary promised to be aggressive in pursuing change even in the face of strong opposition. To buttress that point, she said she will not spend any time making decisions with the goal of hanging on to her job. She also said Gov. Maura Healey has her back. “This governor likes fights. She does. She loves to fight,” Tibbits-Nutt said, according to a video of her talk on the Walk Massachusetts website.
The secretary is heading a task force charged with coming up with a new funding model for transportation by the end of the year. Many insiders are openly skeptical the task force can reach consensus on a package that can make it through the Legislature, but Tibbits-Nutt said the group will be focused on getting results. She also ticked off several revenue initiatives she is interested in.
“This [task force] is actually different because we’re not censoring it,” she said. “I’m going to talk about tolling. I’m going to talk about charging TNCs [transportation network companies like Uber and Lyft] more. I’m going to talk about potentially charging more for package deliveries, charging more for payroll tax — basically going after everybody who has money. And when I’m talking tolling, I’m talking at the borders. I’m not talking within Massachusetts.”

No one wants Kamala Harris to run for president, or to take over for Joe Biden, recent focus groups in Arizona and California have confirmed.
Who could possibly listen to that wretched laugh or listen to her incomprehensible word salads for four years.
This confirms something that the Democrats have been struggling with for months now. Harris is even less popular than Joe Biden. This is why she can’t ride in to their rescue in the 2024 election.
FOX News reports:
Focus group of voters offer ‘brutal’ take of VP Harris: Not ‘someone I want running my country’
Multiple voter focus groups in Arizona have weighed in on Vice President Harris ahead of the November election, and their responses reinforced the notion that she’s an unpopular candidate, according to a report in The Los Angeles Times.
Days after Harris spoke in Arizona on April 12, the political group “Republican Voters Against Trump” invited the outlet to view videos of interviews with three different voter focus groups: one of former Trump 2016 voters who voted for Biden in 2020, one of Black voters who are disappointed with Biden, and another of “California Democrats.”
The Times reported the crossover voters’ views, stating, “Their assessments were brutal. If she is helping Biden, you don’t see it. She rubs me the wrong way. She was picked because she is a demographic. The big things she had, she failed.”…
The other two groups, while less antagonistic towards Harris, were not complimentary of her. “In a focus group of Black voters who were disappointed with Biden, none raised their hand in support of Harris, with one participant calling her ‘the bad news bear,’” the report noted.
This woman, who does an amazing impression of Harris, imagined what an Oval Office address from her might sound like.

On Monday, radical left-wing anti-Israel protesters shut down the iconic Golden Gate Bridge in California for hours.
We are now learning that these people were released by authorities with no charges.
It’s a good thing these people weren’t Trump supporters or pro-life people peacefully praying outside an abortion clinic, or they might be in real trouble.
The New York Post reports:
Anti-Israel protesters who blocked Golden Gate Bridge for hours released without charges
More than two dozen anti-Israel protesters who snarled traffic on San Francisco’s iconic Golden Gate Bridge were freed from jail Tuesday — because the city’s top prosecutor doesn’t have enough evidence to charge them.
District Attorney Brooke Jenkins urged drivers delayed by the hours-long gridlock to contact police so they can “be alleged as a victim” — and so she can build a case against the 26 activists who blocked cars on the bridge Monday, according to CBS News.
Jenkins said she was sending the case back to the California Highway Patrol “for further investigation” into possible false imprisonment charges.
She said drivers, some of whom sat stranded on the span for more than four hours, should get in touch with the CHP so they can seek restitution, according to the SF Gate.
“Anyone who was falsely imprisoned on the Golden Gate Bridge on April 15, 2024, is urged to contact the California Highway Patrol,” Jenkins said in a press conference Tuesday.

Democrat party propagandist Stephen Colbert is going to broadcast the Late Show directly from the Democrat National Convention this summer.
Of course, this makes perfect sense, since Colbert hosted a big, glitzy fundraiser for Biden a few weeks ago.
Do you remember when the Late Show was for the entertainment of all Americans and not just Democrats?
Breitbart News reports:
Stephen Colbert to Broadcast ‘Late Show’ from Chicago During Democratic National Convention
CBS has announced that Stephen Colbert will host his Late Night show from Chicago as the city plays host to the Democratic National Convention and will broadcast from the Auditorium Theatre in the Loop from August 19 to the 22nd.
Colbert and CBS picked the Democrats’ convention to serve as the very first time Colbert is taking his show on the road, the Chicago Tribune reported.
“Sweet home!” Colbert said as he announced the move during his broadcast on Wednesday. “Some may know, I lived in Chicago for 11 years and it holds a special place in my heart, and not just because of all the Polish sausage that’s still lodged in my aorta.

Dr. Ben Carson recently attended an event at Texas A&M University for Turning Point USA. At one point, a woman in the audience took to the microphone and explained how Dr. Carson saved her life when she was a baby.
They then approached each other and hugged to the sound of applause from the audience.
It’s such an amazing moment. Dr. Carson doesn’t get nearly as much admiration as he deserves.
The College Fix reported:
‘Miracle:’ Turning Point event adult attendee thanks Dr. Carson for saving her life as a baby
A married woman with kids thanked Dr. Ben Carson at a Texas A&M university event last night for saving her life decades earlier.
Dr. Carson, a former pediatric neurosurgeon at Johns Hopkins Children’s Center who later served in the Trump administration as the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, spoke at the Turning Point USA event.
“God truly had his hands in this miracle,” Sara Bowker said. She was born with craniosynostosis, a condition where the skull improperly fuses together, according to Bowker.
“You gave me the opportunity to graduate high school, college, and start graduate school, play competitive sports, get married, have children,” Bowker said. “So while none of this was related to politics, I just wanted to say thank you.”

The 2024 election feels very different than the 2020 election and we see examples of changing attitudes every day.
Addison Smith of Newsmax recently spoke to a black voter in Philadelphia, a famously blue city, who explained why the country needs to reelect Trump in 2024.
Trump is making huge gains with minority voters in this election cycle and this voter does a great job of explaining why this is happening. No one has confidence in Joe Biden’s ability to lead the country.
RedState has details:
Smith also spoke with a guy who broke it down in terms that would resonate with everyone on Thursday in Philadelphia. He pointed out how they were having the event there for Biden and that there were a lot of Americans “struggling,” but Biden was helping illegal aliens, “When are you going to help American people?” he asked.
The voter then went into something that isn’t said enough now in media: that Biden made us “look weak” with his failed withdrawal from Afghanistan. “Now people don’t take us serious,” he said. “They look at us like a joke.”
“On top of that, you’re not mentally capable of running the country, bro,” he said to Biden.
He was asked by the Newsmax reporter, “Who is?”
“Trump,” the voter declared. “He’s quick to push buttons, but that’s what we need. We need a hard fist for this country…Biden, he’s going through Alzheimer’s; he’s a joke. Trump? He don’t play around, man; he gets things done. You see action, man. We don’t need that POS in the office.” He then apologized for cursing.
“We need Trump back because he got things done, and we see results,” the man exclaimed.

Actor and American patriot Jon Voight has released a new video in which he makes a strong case for reelecting Donald Trump in 2024.
Voight is one of those rare Hollywood celebrities who lives openly as a conservative and Trump supporter. He has publicly supported Trump for years now.
In the video, Voight addresses many of the issues that are top concerns for voters this year.
Breitbart News has a partial transcript:
“Bring back what was lost,” Voight said in a two-minute video posted to his X social media account. “We must bring back the safety of this great country. We must bring back our greatest achievements that once were blooming.
“My friends of all colors, all religions, all nations, we must remember [this] truth: one love, under God. This life is full of injustice, this land of Israel is in danger, the land of the free, the USA, is in danger.
“Let us all come together and make these countries safe again. We must stop this war. We must stop this darkness. This negative plague that is lingering. How? Vote, for the only president that can save these countries once and for all.
“Let all nations bloom, let them shine. My friends, the only way, President Donald J. Trump. He and only he can take this hardship and turn it into a magnificent triumph. He can wipe out this swamp and bring glory, bring justice. And he will help save Israel and warn these enemies that they will pay the price of their injustice, for their disgraceful actions.”
Voight added, “Justice will prevail, and peace for all nations will come to be” should Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee, get elected in November.

Cities around the country are dealing with a homelessness problem that has exploded in recent years. In Los Angeles, California, the problem is severe, with thousands upon thousands of people living in tents on sidewalks.
Democrat Mayor Karen Bass has an idea for solving the city’s problem. She wants wealthy residents to buy housing for the homeless. Good luck with that.
Does she really think that Hollywood liberals like Rob Reiner are going to put their money where there mouths are? Unlikely.
Townhall reported:
Here’s How One Democrat Mayor Wants to ‘Solve’ Homelessness
On Monday, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass (D) urged wealthy constituents to buy housing for homeless people in the city.
Bass made the remarks as she announced the LA4LA Campaign, which is aimed at creating housing for the city’s growing homeless population. According to the Los Angeles Times, over 45,000 homeless people live in the city…
So far, Bass’ Inside Safe program has moved over 21,000 homeless people into temporary housing, according to her website. In her remarks, Bass announced the new initiative and asked “the most fortunate” to help fund housing for the homeless.
“We are asking the most fortunate Angelenos to participate in this effort, with personal, private sector and philanthropic funds – to help us acquire more properties, lower the cost of capital and speed up housing,” Bass explained. “This is the mission of our new capital campaign, LA4LA.”…
“LA4LA can be a sea change for Los Angeles – an unprecedented partnership to confront this emergency,” Bass continued. “An example of disrupting the status quo to build a new system to save lives.”

Los Angeles is pretty much doomed at this point.

On August 26, 2021, Islamic terrorist Abdul Rehman killed 173 Afghans and 13 Americans at the Kabul Airport.
The Gateway Pundit reported in September 2021 that the terrorist was released from prison at Bagram Air Base after Joe Biden abandoned the airfield in the middle of the night.
Abdul Rehman al-logri
Joe 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.
Story claims Kabul airport bomber was an Afghan IS-K member who planned an attack in New Delhi. CIA detected threat in 2017, notified RAW. RAW nabbed him, gave him to US which sent him to Bagram. Taliban released him and he kills 169 Afghans/13 US soldiers https://t.co/X1VZqzmVrr

Firstpost reported:
The Islamic State suicide bomber who killed at least 169 Afghan civilians and 13 United States soldiers outside Kabul airport last month was incarcerated in Afghanistan’s notorious Bagram prison for the past four years, thanks to Indian efforts, Firstpost has learnt through credible intelligence sources.
Senior Indian intelligence sources familiar with the case have told Firstpost that he was handed over to the United States’ Central Intelligence Agency by the Research and Analysis Wing in September 2017. However, the jihadist walked free on 15 August along with thousands of other dangerous terrorists held in the high-security prison, taking advantage of the chaos that ensued in the aftermath of the United State’s hurried exit and the Taliban’s swift takeover of the entire country.
Identified as Abdul Rehman, the jihadist was a former student of an engineering college in India and hailed from Afghanistan’s Logar province. He was the son of an Afghan merchant who frequently visited India for business.
His arrest had led to the termination of a plot by the Islamic State of Khurasan Province (IS-K) — the Islamic State’s regional wing in Afghanistan — to stage suicide bombings in New Delhi and other cities across the region, probably on the behest of Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence Directorate (ISI).
Sawt al-Hind mentions that Abdur Rehman al-Logari was arrested 5 years ago in India before he could carry out a suicide attack in Delhi (to avenge Kashmir) and deported to Afghanistan. He did not go home and struck Kabul airport. https://t.co/PGUxDkyvjf

It has now been confirmed that the suicide bomber who killed 13 U.S. service members in 2021 during Biden’s disastrous withdrawal had been released from an Afghan prison as the confusion unfolded.
The Afghan withdrawal happened early in Biden’s presidency and his poll numbers have never fully recovered. The incident may have also had something to do with the military’s ongoing struggle to find new recruits.
Following the withdrawal, Biden famously turned his back to the press and the American people at one point, a gesture he has repeated many times since.
The Washington Free Beacon released this confirmation on Wednesday – more than two years after Gateway Pundit’s original reporting.
Biden Admin Confirms Afghan Suicide Bomber Was Freed From Prison Abandoned During US Withdrawal
The Biden administration on Monday confirmed that the Afghan suicide bomber who killed more than a dozen U.S. service members at the Kabul airport in 2021 had been freed from a prison abandoned during the U.S. military’s withdrawal from Afghanistan.
House Foreign Affairs Committee chairman Michael McCaul (R., Texas) in a Monday statement said a Defense Department report revealed that the suicide bomber who detonated an explosive belt at the airport’s Abbey Gate and killed 13 U.S. service members and injured 45 more in August 2021 was “Abdul Rahman al-Logari, an ISIS-K terrorist who was freed from the Bagram prison by the Taliban.”
American troops had left the Bagram Airfield just weeks before the Abbey Gate bombing, as part of the Biden administration’s Afghanistan withdrawal. Afghan officials said the American troops abandoned Bagram, Afghanistan’s largest airfield, after nearly 20 years without even notifying the base’s new Afghan commander.
McCaul in his Monday statement denounced congressional Democrats, arguing that the American public would have known what happened at the Kabul airport much sooner had the Democrats “fulfilled their constitutional obligations and conducted oversight.”
After the suicide bombing, Biden somehow managed to make things look even worse.
Remember when Joe Biden looked at his watch during a memorial service for the 13 US service members he got kįlled in Kabul in 2021 during his botched withdrawal from Afghanistan?
America certainly does.

ESPN host Stephen A. Smith recently went off on the Democrats in a rant about all of the lawfare that they’re waging against Trump.
This is not the first time that Smith has gone off like this. Just last month, he tore into Democrats over similar issues.
Smith suggested that all this does is prove that Democrats don’t believe they can beat Trump on the issues. He also suggests that it proves Trump’s claims about election interference.
FOX News reports:
Stephen A. Smith calls liberals cowards for lawfare against Trump: ‘Scared you can’t beat him’
ESPN host Stephen A. Smith called out liberals directly for pursuing criminal trials against former President Trump, saying that they’re “scared” they “can’t beat him on the issues.”…
“It’s much ado about nothing,” Smith said on the podcast. “To my liberal friends out there, all you’re doing is showing that you’re scared you can’t beat him on the issues and the merits.”…
“That’s why he keeps saying they can’t beat me at the election, at the polls. This is the only way they can do it,” he said.
Smith also gave a warning about where this strategy will lead, especially if Trump is never put in jail, predicting there will “never be peace in this country” as a result.
“And if you don’t put him in jail, and he still goes from being the presumptive GOP nominee to the official GOP nominee, and he goes to the polls, even though he was going to whine about winning and being rigged again, you have given more fodder to that argument, which means we’ll never have peace in this country.”

In the 2024 election, there will be a very large pool of voters who pulled the lever for Biden in 2020 but will now be voting for Trump. Biden regret is real and it could help Trump tremendously in November.
One such person is a writer named Sasha Stone. She has been completely red-pilled and she is very good at explaining why.
She sees what Democrats and the media are doing with perfect clarity. She also understands how leftist minds work because she was one until fairly recently. No anymore.
She writes at Substack:
The Lawfare made me a Trump supporter
Six years ago, I stood a few feet away from Joe Biden at a fundraiser and was certain he was the only person who could save this country from Donald Trump in 2020.
However, by the end of the election, I would leave the Democratic Party for good. I saw them as corrupt, too powerful, and dangerous to the very democracy they now claim they want to protect.
Now, I wake up every morning in a panic that our last best hope of ending the monopoly of power on the Left rests on the imperfect shoulders of Donald Trump.
So I guess that finally makes me a Trump supporter.
It was a long, slow slide that started with simply humanizing Trump and the MAGA movement and believe me, just that alone upset my friends and family. They’re evil, they believe, because that’s what the media tells them every second of every day…
I spent a lot of time saying, “I’m not a Trump supporter, but…” I said it so much I began to feel like a coward for saying it. Trump is no better or worse than any politician in America. But we’ve never lived through an entire oligopoly scaring people against a former and half the country.
Her column is worth reading in full.
Make no mistake, there are lots of people across the country who feel the same way she does, even if many of them keep quiet about it.

Denver’s Democrat mayor, Mike Johnston, has cut funding to the city’s police department by $8 million in order to take care of people who entered the country illegally.
This is not the first time Johnston has done this. He was already making cuts to city services back in February for the same reason.
So the influx of illegal aliens makes the city less safe and then the mayor cuts funding to the police making the city even less safe.
What could possibly go wrong?
FOX News reports:
Blue city mayor defunds police force by more than $8 million to aid migrants
A Democrat-controlled city announced $45 million in funding for programs to help deal with the skyrocketing number of migrant arrivals it is facing, resulting in over $8 million in budget cuts for the police department.
Denver Mayor Mike Johnston announced last week a package of $45.9 million to fully fund programs for “newcomers” for 2024 and avoid worst-case scenarios projected by the city. That’s in addition to $44 million in spending already secured for the program through previous budget moves.
Spending on migrants in the city skyrocketed last year from $2 million a month in August to $15 million in December. In January, migrant numbers peaked at around 5,000 in shelters but have since dropped to around 1,000, according to official figures.
“After more than a year of facing this crisis together, Denver finally has a sustainable plan for treating our newcomers with dignity while avoiding the worst cuts to city services,” Johnston said.
The mayor’s office says it will avoid layoffs or furloughs of employees, but there will still be cuts to find the extra $45.9 million in funding. The mayor’s office will see its budget cut by nearly 10%.
Taxpayers in Denver should be outraged.
HAPPENING NOW: The Democrat Mayor of Denver has found enough money to pay for the migrants, and all he had to do was cut the police and firefighters budget. He now has a total of $90 million for migrants in 2024, after cutting $8 million from police and $2.5 million from… pic.twitter.com/XomU557gXw

From the Washington Free Beacon:
Left-Wing Dark Money Behemoth Behind Bail Fund for ‘Free Palestine’ Bridge Blockers
Scores of “Free Palestine” protesters across the United States took to the streets Monday to block major airports, highways, and bridges. Those who are arrested will receive bail money and legal support from a left-wing dark money behemoth funded by George Soros, an online fundraising page shows.
The protests, which took place in dozens of U.S. cities including San Francisco, Chicago, New York City, and Philadelphia, were organized by A15 Action, a newly formed group that worked to “coordinate a multi-city economic blockade on April 15 in solidarity with Palestine.” The group’s website directs users to a “bail and legal defense fund” hosted through ActBlue, the Democratic Party’s online fundraising juggernaut.
Those who donate to the fund, the ActBlue page says, are sending money to the Community Justice Exchange, which provides “money bail, court fees and fines” and other legal services to “community-based organizations … that contest the current operation and function of the criminal legal and immigration detention systems.” The exchange is a project of the Tides Center, a left-wing dark money network funded by Soros and other liberal billionaires.

John Legend claimed that Donald Trump is ‘benefiting’ from the two-tiered justice system, during an interview with former Joe Biden spokeswoman Jen Psaki on her propaganda MSNBC show.
This is a glimpse into the deranged mind of a TDS afflicted liberal celebrity.
Legend justifies this by noting that Trump has access to lawyers who are delaying trials. He fails to note that the trials are all completely political and are being brought against Trump just because he is Trump.
The Washington Examiner reported:
Musician John Legend claims Trump is benefiting from ‘two-tiered’ justice system
Musician John Legend rebuked claims from former President Donald Trump, arguing that he has benefited from a “two-tiered” system of justice amid his multitude of legal battles.
Trump, the presumptive presidential nominee of the Republican Party, is facing dozens of indictments and multiple legal battles while campaigning for his race to the White House, with his hush money trial starting this week. Legend, a critic of Trump, argued the former president is part of a two-tiered justice system but that it is one from which he is benefiting.
“He is getting way more concessions than the average criminal defendant would get,” Legend said in an upcoming interview with MSNBC’s Jen Psaki. “He’s getting delays, he’s got access to all kinds of lawyers that are filing this and filing that, delaying every trial, and most people don’t have access to that kind of lawyering, don’t have access to the kind of concessions that the justice system will provide to you if you can afford it.”

Left wing activist and filmmaker Michael Moore thinks Biden is going to blow it for Democrats in 2024 like Hillary did in 2016.
According to Moore, millions of Michigan liberals are going to sit out the election over Biden’s handling of the Israel/Hamas conflict. He reminded MSNBC that Hillary lost Michigan in 2016 by a pretty small margin and he sees history repeating itself.
He may have a point. There have been multiple reports about all of the ‘uncommitted’ votes in the Michigan primary over this issue. Also, remember that Michael Moore was one of the few people on the left who understood Trump’s appeal in 2016.

Michael Moore warns Biden he’ll lose like Hillary did in 2016 over support for Israel
Liberal activist and filmmaker Michael Moore warned President Biden on Monday that he would lose to Donald Trump like Hillary Clinton did over his support for Israel, because voters would stay home in protest.
Moore said during his podcast, “Rumble with Michael Moore,” that Clinton lost “by two votes per precinct” in 2016. He addressed Biden and said, “that’s what’s going to happen to you.”
“President Biden, you could end this now. You know it’s wrong, I know you know it’s wrong. I know I sound like a broken record and I know you know you’re going to lose this election, in part because too many people are going to stay home,” Moore said. “They’re not going to vote for Trump. They’re not going to switch their vote from Trump to you, no, that is not how this is going to play out. As what happened with Hillary in Michigan, she lost by two votes per precinct. Two for the whole state. Two! And that’s what’s going to happen to you.”
Moore argued young people didn’t want war and told the president they were “sick” of what Biden’s been doing.

SPD is Closely Monitoring Conflict Between Israel and Iran
The Seattle Police Department is closely monitoring the conflict between Israel and Iran and are working with local and federal agencies to ensure the safety of Seattle community members.
As a precaution, we will proactively increase patrols around infrastructures and sensitive areas. SPD’s Community liaisons are working with community leaders as a prevention measure. Currently there are no specific or credible threats.
As always SPD is committed to the safety of Seattle community members.

A neighborhood in New York City has been turned into an open-air market where illegal immigrants are selling goods, many of them stolen, and prostitution is common.
Locals are complaining and the police try to move the illegal vendors out but they’re replaced by others within minutes after the cops leave.
New York City is being transformed into a country within a country, with its own set of rules and regulations.
The New York Post reports:
NYC block turned into illicit open-air market for migrant crooks, prostitution: ‘It’s relentless’
A stretch of Jackson Heights has deteriorated into an illegal migrant shopping district — an unchecked, open-air market where everything from women to stolen goods can be had, The Post has learned.
Roosevelt Avenue near 91st Street is littered daily with migrant vendors hawking goods they ripped off from shopkeepers just steps away, while prostitutes proposition passersby at all hours — and frustrated merchants and residents say they’re helpless to do anything about it.
“It’s relentless,” said Milton Reyes, who manages Mi Farmacia pharmacy on the avenue. “You should see it on Saturdays. It’s so heavy, you can’t even step onto the sidewalk. There are a lot of doctors’ offices right around here and my customers don’t even want to get dropped off.
“I’m not faulting the police,” Reyes added. “They will come by and they will pick up a few of them. But as soon as the police car pulls away, they start moving back. Twenty minutes later, they’re all set up again like nothing happened.”
The problem has been allowed to get to the point where they can’t control it now.

George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley appeared on FOX News on Monday and explained why Trump is not likely to get a fair trial in New York.
The trial has entered the jury selection phase and this is key, according to Turley. He suggests that even if the court tries to find jurors who don’t dislike Trump, that Trump haters will lie just to get on the jury.
The people who are going after Trump know this. In fact, they’re probably counting on it.
Transcript via Real Clear Politics:
JONATHAN TURLEY: Well, the more cases against Trump, the less justice we receive as a people. You know, the opponents of Trump would have been far better off with just one case, the Mar-a-Lago case. That’s based on real law, real precedent, and one can disagree with the interpretations. But it’s not a reach in the sense of this case.
This case is, creating something, it’s creating a criminal code just for Trump. You know, you have a misdemeanor whose time has expired, the statute limitations ran out, and it was revived in this rather curious way. He’s effectively arguing that Trump was filing false business records through his counsel to hide a federal crime. But it isn’t a federal crime, this wasn’t a campaign contribution.
None of that appears to matter. And that’s why a lot of us are looking at this and recoiling. This is not how the law is supposed to be. New Yorkers appear to like it this way. They elected James, who ran on bagging Trump for anything, didn’t even mention what. And they now are lionizing this district attorney putting together what many consider to be an absurd indictment…
The problem is that courts don’t feel comfortable asking who did you vote for, and so they are working around the edges to try to show bias. The most important thing here is to try to isolate the worst of the jurors, those are jurors who just desperately want to be on this jury, many people will want to be and are prepared to lie to do so. What the defense counsel has is not their veracity on these forms but their names. Even though we won’t see them, defense counsel can look at social media and see if they are lying.

There have been multiple polls in recent months that show Trump leading Joe Biden in the swing states and those polls are making Democrats very nervous, but another new poll has some Democrats much more worried.
This poll has to do with voter identification. Democrats have had a strong advantage on this for years but that has changed.
The split between Americans who identify as Democrat vs. Republican is now almost perfectly even.
Nick Arama reports at RedState:
Fascinating Poll Shows Another Major Voter Shift That Brings Good News for GOP
Since the 90s, when Republicans last had a lead in voter identification, there had been a shift toward people identifying as Democrats until there were 5 percent more voters identifying as Democrats than Republicans in 2020.
But now there appears to have been a shift back toward the right, according to a just-released Pew Research Center analysis comparing the numbers for the last twenty years until 2023.
However, the Pew results from 2023 reveal a significant shift in party affiliation this cycle, reporting that 49% of voters identify as Democrat or leaning Democrat, while 48% identify as Republican or leaning Republican.
Additionally, about 33% of respondents said they identify as being conservative or moderate in 2023, while the other side of the aisle only sees 23% identifying as liberal Democrats or leaning liberal.
That means Democrats had been five points up and now it’s almost even, and now more identifying as conservative than liberal as well.
Take a look at the breakdown below:

Tonight, as Iran launches attacks on Israel, it is important to remember that exactly one month ago the Biden administration granted new sanctions relief to Iran that gave the country access to billions.
The move was criticized by Republicans and downplayed by Democrats and the liberal media.
It’s just another reminder that Biden has a habit of making the exact wrong decision on foreign policy every single time.
FOX News reported in March:
US frees up billions in sanctions relief to Iran as Tehran proxies wreak havoc in region
White House national security advisor John Kirby on Friday said the funds from a sanction waiver extended this week by the Biden administration to permit Iraq to purchase energy from Iran will not go to its “mullahs.”
“None of this money goes to the mullahs. None of this money goes into Tehran. The sanctions relief that is provided actually goes to vendors that provide humanitarian assistance to the Iranian people,” he told Fox News White House correspondent Jacqui Heinrich, during a Friday press briefing. “Not only do the Iraqi people not suffer because of this, the Iranian people aren’t going to suffer because of this.”
“That allows for Iraq to be able to work its way off of Iranian energy so that they can keep the lights on,” Kirby said.
The Biden administration on Thursday came under criticism after it again extended a sanction waiver despite repeated pushback from those concerned that Iran could misuse the funds.
This is all connected.
Donald Trump had Iran broke.
Joe Biden gave the Iran Regime hundreds of billions of dollars in sanctions relief, credit and cash.
Iran is now attacking Israel with Joe Biden’s money.
— Richard Grenell (@RichardGrenell) April 13, 2024
Let’s not forget Joe Biden signed off on a sanction’s waiver giving Iran access to $10 billion in cold hard cash in foreign banks. He signed off on the waiver on March 13, a full 6 weeks after an Iranian-backed drone attack killed 3 American soldiers.

Democrats in the Senate are pushing a multi-billion dollar bailout for struggling theater companies across the country and one of the companies that would benefit is New York’s Public Theater which staged a production of Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar in 2017 that portrayed the central character as Trump. The play features the assassination of the title character.
Many of these companies are struggling because they and their supporters embraced the harshest Covid policies. They also alienated many former supporters by going fully woke.
In other words, many of these companies deserve to fail and will do so in time, whether they get a bailout now or not.
Breitbart News reports:
Failing Theaters Would Receive $5 Billion Taxpayer-Funded Bailout under Democrat Plan
Non-profit theater companies across the country would receive a $5 billion taxpayer-funded bailout under a new plan being promoted by a group of Democrats in the Senate. The proposed bailout comes as prominent stages are facing unprecedented financial crises following their embrace of woke identity politics, which has alienated audiences and donors.
Among the companies poised to receive the new federal dollars would be New York’s Public Theater, which staged the gruesome stabbing death of President Donald Trump in its infamous 2017 production of Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar.
Sen. Peter Welch (D-VT) is leading the way with the legislation, which is called the Supporting Theater and the Arts to Galvanize the Economy (STAGE) Act of 2024….
New York’s Public Theater, which recently laid off nearly 20 percent of its staff, staged the assassination of President Donald Trump in its 2017 Central Park production of Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar. The staging shocked many audience members and led to the cancellation of some corporate sponsorships, including Bank of America and Delta.

New York City has a serious and growing problem with empty office space. Between rising crime, high taxes, and the crazy rules of the pandemic a few years ago, people have fled the city in huge numbers.
Now the city is home to a record number of empty office buildings. The lack of revenue from these properties has got to be hurting the city’s bottom line and the policies of the current mayor are not helping.
Who would want to spend millions of dollars to open a new office in Manhattan right now?
The New York Post reports:
Manhattan offices set new record high for emptiness
Big Apple office buildings have never been so empty.
While the peak era of remote work may feel long ago in the past, the number of vacant offices in Manhattan just hit a new record.
The borough’s office availability rate -– or, how much of that market is currently unfilled — hit 18.1% in the first quarter of 2024, the highest rate ever recorded. That’s according to a recent report by investment management company Colliers, Crain’s first reported.
In contrast, that number, which includes currently empty offices and those that will be empty in the very near future, was just 10% back in March 2020. The majority of the 8% vacancy increase that has occurred since then happened between 2020 and 2022.
Still, the rate has gone up even in the past 12 months, when it was 17.1%, and even last quarter, when it was 17.9%.
Townhall has more:
As we noted last summer, it’s not just the banks who are on the hook—we have individuals and pension funds that have invested in commercial real estate through what has been dubbed “alternative investment” opportunities. With inflation and interest rates chipping away at the worth of these assets and the possibility of loans being called, our country is barreling toward a situation where a Troubled Asset Relief Program will be needed to stop the bleeding.
How soon before NYC is looking for a bailout due to the crash of the commercial real estate market?

Earlier this week, an editor for National Public Radio went on the record exposing the extreme political bias of the taxpayer funded network.
He claimed that after the 2016 election, that the outlet went full-activist and did whatever they could to damage Trump and his presidency. They obviously pushed the Russia collusion hoax and refused to report on the Hunter Biden laptop story.
Someone must have shared the story with Trump, because he is now calling for an end to public funding for National Public Radio.
Breitbart News reports:
Donald Trump Demands ‘No More’ NPR Taxpayer Funding After Editor Unveils Network Bias
“NO MORE” tax dollars should fund NPR after a senior editor unveiled several examples of blatant network bias, former President Donald Trump said.
NPR employs 87 registered Democrats in editorial positions but zero Republicans in the same positions in its Washington, DC, headquarters, NPR Senior Editor Uri Berliner reported Tuesday in a scathing essay.
Berliner, who leans left, said he opposed many of the left-wing and perhaps false narratives NPR spun about the coronavirus “lab leak theory,” Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), the “Don’t Say Gay” bill, Hunter Biden’s laptop, former President Donald Trump, and the 2016 Russia hoax.
“NO MORE FUNDING FOR NPR, A TOTAL SCAM! EDITOR SAID THEY HAVE NO REPUBLICANS, AND IS ONLY USED TO ‘DAMAGE TRUMP,’” Trump wrote Wednesday on Truth Social. “THEY ARE A LIBERAL DISINFORMATION MACHINE. NOT ONE DOLLAR!!!”

A recent guest on the Dr. Phil show was there to argue in favor of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies and things did not go well for her.
Dr. Phil pointed out that what she is arguing for is equality of outcomes, which just doesn’t work. He correctly pointed out to her that what she is talking about is essentially Marxism.
Dr. Phil nailed this. Equality of outcomes is communism and it has failed everywhere it has been tried throughout history.
Transcript via the Vigilant FOX:

Some people are taller looking over that fence. They can’t both play in the NBA. You can’t create equality of outcome. What gives a DEI program the right to come in and try and alter the nature of things to create equality of outcome? That’s been tried. That didn’t work. That was called Marxism.”

This story sounds like something out of a movie but it is all too real.
Three men set out to fish on a small skiff. They were headed from one small island to an even smaller one in Micronesia, but they ended up crashing on yet another small island called Pikelot, that looks like the setting for a story like Robinson Crusoe.
The men were able to live on coconuts and well water but they finally used palm fronds to spell out ‘HELP’ on the beach and were rescued.
Stars and Stripes reports:
3 stranded men were down to coconuts and a dead battery before Pacific rescue
Three men rescued this week from a remote atoll in the Pacific were subsisting on coconuts and well water when a U.S. Navy plane spotted their plea for help Sunday, a Coast Guard spokeswoman said.
The three, all in their 40s, had set out March 31 from Polowat Atoll, Micronesia, in a 20-foot skiff with an outboard motor for Pikelot Atoll, a 31-acre, uninhabited speck in a vast ocean, according to a Coast Guard news release Wednesday. The men were not identified by the Coast Guard.
“Their initial goal was to fish around Pikelot, but the skiff was damaged when they approached the island due to the swells surging on the island and surrounding shoal,” Chief Warrant Officer Sara Muir of Coast Guard Forces Micronesia, Sector Guam told Stars and Stripes by email Thursday. “They were originally going to meet up with another family from Satawal [Atoll] at Pikelot. The Satawal family ended up not going due to weather and sea conditions.”
On Saturday a woman “reported her three uncles had not returned from Pikelot Atoll,” approximately 115 miles northwest of Polowat Atoll, both part the Federated States of Micronesia, according to the Coast Guard.

Lawmakers in Tennessee have passed a new bill which would require the teaching of gun safety courses in public schools. It now heads to the desk of the governor.
This would be a major win for the Second Amendment and the people of Tennessee. If it passes into law, it could also become a model for other states.
This would also be considered a win by conservatives who are tired of seeing public schools increasingly focus on ‘woke’ social justice content instead of the basics.
FOX News reported:
Public school students in this state could soon be required to take gun safety courses
The Tennessee state legislature passed a bill, which is now headed to the governor’s desk, requiring public schools to teach “age-appropriate and grade-appropriate” gun safety courses to students starting next year.
“We see this proposed legislation as a critical step in averting firearm related accidents while fostering greater awareness and responsibility among gun owners,” the bill’s sponsor, Rep. Chris Todd, a Republican, said in a February hearing.
The Tennessee Senate passed HB 2882 in a 24-3 vote on Thursday after the bill made its way through the House in February. If signed by Gov. Bill Lee, the courses will begin in the 2025-2026 school year.
The gun safety classes would be taught primarily through videos and online resources and would teach things like firearm storage, school safety, and how to avoid getting hurt if a student finds a gun and to immediately notify an adult if a gun is found. The bill stipulates the lessons will “not include the use or presence of live ammunition, live fire, or live firearms.”
Tennessee Democrats are outraged, naturally.

In 2020, Donald Trump made significant gains among black voters. In 2024, the numbers are even greater.
According to a new Wall Street Journal poll, Trump’s support among black men and women has doubled since 2020.
Many people are attributing these gains to the crisis at the southern border, which is now seriously impacting American cities across the country, as well as inflation and the Biden economy.

WSJ Poll: Donald Trump Nearly Doubles Support Among Black Men and Women Since 2020
Thirty percent of black men and 11 percent of black women intend to vote for former President Donald Trump in 2024, Wall Street Journal polling found Thursday, which is a significant increase from 2020 data.
Losing black support would be a blow to President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign.
Only 12 percent of black men voted for Trump in 2020, voting data shows. There is no compatible 2020 polling for black men.

A large new homeless encampment in the city of Minneapolis is causing distress for locals who are now begging the city to shut it down.
There has been an explosion at the camp, a stabbing, and other problems. People who live nearby are telling local media that they’re terrified.
Minneapolis has never seemed to fully recover after the George Floyd riots. It seems like a city stuck in decline.
FOX News reports:
Minneapolis residents urge city to shut down neighborhood homeless encampment after explosion, stabbing
Residents of a Minneapolis neighborhood have asked city leaders to shut down a recently installed homeless encampment following a series of concerning incidents, including an explosion.
Phillip West neighbors and the Minneapolis police said the homeless encampment was set up on March 27 on the 2900 block of Fifth Avenue South, according to 5 Eyewitness News.
“We’re scared out of our minds. I’ve had people on my porch at 2 a.m. and there’s needles on the ground,” one resident, who asked to remain anonymous, said. “There’s broken glass everywhere, and we have a ton of kids that live on this block.”
The neighbor also told the outlet that residents had sent a letter to Mayor Jacob Frey, Minneapolis Police Department (MPD) Chief Brian O’Hara and the City Council asking them to take action.
Since the encampment was set up almost two weeks ago, there have allegedly been over a dozen calls to the location, including a drug overdose, a stabbing and an explosion.
Here’s a local video report:

For almost three years now, people on the right have been calling the crisis on the southern border an invasion. It’s difficult to see it as anything else.
When thousands of people, mostly military aged men, are crossing your border on a daily basis, what else could you call it?
Liberals have resisted the use of the term ‘invasion’ for the most part, until now.
The Washington Examiner reports:
Warning signs: Democrats call border a ‘crisis’ and ‘invasion’
A majority of Democrats have joined with Republicans and independents in decrying the Biden border crisis, adding to the building pressure on the White House to fix its three years of immigration blundering.
Just one day after revealing data showing that people believe the immigration disaster is President Joe Biden’s way of building a “permanent majority” of liberal voters for the Democratic Party, Rasmussen Reports said most voting groups agree the situation is at a crisis stage.
By a margin of 69%-22%, likely voters believe the open borders that have allowed in record numbers of illegal immigrants are a crisis. That includes 51% of Democrats, 63% of black people, 65% of women, and 64% of younger voters.
Nearly as many see it as an “invasion,” by a 64%-33% margin. That includes 46% of Democrats, 66% of black people, 60% of women, and 62% of younger voters.

Joe Biden and Kamala Harris think that support from LGBT voters is going to win them the day in November. While it is true that a majority of LGBT voters support Democrats, they are still a minority in the United States.
The fact that the Biden Harris campaign is talking about this speaks volumes. They are doing this because they are losing support from other parts of their coalition. Black voters, Latino voters and young voters are all drifting away from them.
This is a way for Democrats to brag about one part of their base that still seems steady.

President Biden and Vice President Harris’ re-election campaign has announced a new push to win over a group of voters that it claims is “a force to be reckoned with.” The initiative comes just seven months ahead of the president’s rematch with the presumptive Republican nominee, former President Donald Trump.
As Biden seeks to win another term in the White House despite facing historic low approval ratings, Team Biden-Harris announced the launch of “Out for Biden-Harris.” The campaign describes the program as a national effort to mobilize LGBTQ+ voters and community members across the country.
In a statement, Biden-Harris 2024 campaign manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez said, “LGBTQ+ voters are a force to be reckoned with.”
“They were critical to our victory in 2020, and they will be critical to winning again this November,” Chavez Rodriguez added. “That’s why we’re thrilled to launch Out for Biden-Harris, which will harness the LGBTQ+ community’s organizing prowess to reelect President Biden and Vice President Harris this November.”
Like everything Biden does, this could backfire.
Watching Democrats play another round of "Intersectional Olympics" with the most dysfunctional Admin in recent history? No thanks. “No administration has done more” to damage the public image of LGBT people than the clowns running the Biden-Harris Administration. #LGBTrump https://t.co/h1S8gyatmA

Even with this push, Biden and Harris will not win every vote in the LGBT community. There are plenty of LGBT people who support Trump.

Whoopi Goldberg recently said on The View that Republicans want to bring back slavery.
This is a vicious lie that is meant to sow fear and also betrays Whoopi’s ignorance of American history. The Republican party was founded to end slavery in the United States, which was supported by Democrats. Why would Republicans want to bring back something that they fought to end?
This is just like when Biden famously said to black voters that Mitt Romney wants to ‘put y’all back in chains.’
This is all the left has now. Telling lies to scare people into voting Democrat.
Breitbart News reports:
Whoopi Goldberg: Republicans Want to ‘Bring Slavery Back’
Whoopi Goldberg told her co-hosts Wednesday on ABC’s “The View” that some Republicans would like to “bring slavery back” during the panel discussion of the Arizona Supreme Court’s ruling reinstating an 1864 abortion ban.
Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin said, “I believe a lot of elected Republicans are completely out of step with the sentiment of the country because we’ve seen in Kansas, a very red state, Ohio, and Kentucky that Republicans turned out to protect access to abortion so this is a big win for Democrats I believe in the election.”
Goldberg said, “Take a look at the things that they’re rolling back. Remember I said ages ago, you know, in their minds they want to bring slavery back. They’re okay with it because you see things change — now one of the good things about the Supreme Court is you can fight to make sure you make stuff better. You don’t generally fight to make stuff worse.”
Here’s the video:

Cities across the country are dealing with an exploding problem of homelessness, but places like Los Angeles and San Francisco in California are among the worst.
In a shocking turn of events, an audit has found that California has spent $24 billion on homeless programs yet the problem persists and in some places is getting worse.
Would California have seen better improvements if they just gave this money directly to homeless people? Could the outcome have been any worse?
The Washington Examiner reports:
An audit in California found that the state spent $24 billion on homelessness over the past five years, but the state did not accurately track if the funds actually improved the problem.
The state has spent roughly $24 billion on initiatives to address homelessness, and the audit analyzed a combined $13.7 billion that went to five programs across the state from 2018-23. Despite the money being spent on 30 homelessness and housing programs, the audit found that California does not have reliable data to see why the situation did not improve in cities across the state.
“This report concludes that the state must do more to assess the cost-effectiveness of its homelessness programs,” State Auditor Grant Parks wrote in a letter to Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) and lawmakers.
Democratic state Sen. Dave Cortese requested the audit in 2022 after he toured a homeless encampment that had been cleared. He said results from the audit found a “data desert,” which found a continuous cycle with many experiencing homelessness placed in interim housing. Of those people, only 13% found a permanent home and 44% became homeless again.
How many people working for the state became wealthy off of these homeless programs?
In it, state auditors found that homeless numbers jumped 53% in the last decade with an estimated 180,000 people unhoused in California, despite the spending of more than $20 billion to stop it. https://t.co/R19ozBFHcn

This is a scandal. The state has spent billions on homelessness, and it's worse. Also, outcomes literally mean everything when it comes to homeless services, and unsurprisingly, they have no data. A full independent audit must be done. Now. @GavinNewsom https://t.co/RZUhruH9sK

Remember Cornel West? He is still running for president in 2024 as an independent.
West has just announced his choice of running mate. He picked a college professor from California named Melina Abdullah. She is a radical BLM activist, so this is a perfect fit.
West and Abdullah may not get many votes, but they won’t be taking anything away from Trump, that’s for sure.
Politico reports:
Cornel West chooses Black Lives Matter activist Melina Abdullah as his vice president
Cornel West tapped university professor and prominent Black Lives Matter activist Melina Abdullah to be his running mate on his long-shot presidential bid.
Abdullah has never run for political office before and is the former chair of the Pan-African Studies Department at California State University, Los Angeles.
“I wanted to run with someone who would put a smile on the face of Fannie Lou Hamer and Martin Luther King Jr. from the grave,” West said.
He announced his pick on Wednesday’s episode of the Tavis Smiley Radio Show on KBLA radio.
West is running as an independent candidate and faces significant challenges in his campaign for the White House. West’s fundraising has lagged behind his opponents, raising less than $1 million since launching his bid last summer.
Democrats are worried about West for the same reason they’re worried about RFK:
Democrats were swift to criticize West’s announcement. “Despite Cornel West announcing a running mate, our view remains the same: only two candidates have a path to 270 electoral votes, President Biden and Donald Trump,” said DNC spokesperson Matt Corridoni. “The stakes are high, and we know this is going to be a close election — that’s why a vote for any third party candidate is a vote for Donald Trump.”
It’ll be fascinating to see where this ticket picks up votes.
Cornel West for President 2024 is honored to welcome Dr. Melina Abdullah, professor, organizer, activist, a beacon of wisdom and justice, as our Vice Presidential candidate. Together, we’re crafting a future where justice and love lead the way.

Now that Republicans are moving forward in an effort to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, Democrats have adopted a very different view of the subject.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said this week that impeachment shouldn’t be used to settle policy disagreements.
That will be big news to President Trump and his supporters. What changed?
The Washington Times reports:
Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer said Tuesday that Democrats will move to derail an impeachment trial for Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, saying the charges against him are bogus.
Mr. Schumer did not say exactly what method Democrats will use, but other senators said it could involve either tabling or moving to dismiss the case, which could be done through a majority vote.
Republicans decried the expected move that would be the first time in history the Senate shirked a duty to conduct a trial after the House impeached an official.
But Mr. Schumer said he considers the case against Mr. Mayorkas to be illegitimate, and he seemed confident of having the votes to succeed.
“We’re going to try and resolve this issue as quickly as possible,” Mr. Schumer, New York Democrat, told reporters. “Impeachment should never be used to settle policy disagreements.”

It has been widely reported that there were chants of ‘death to America’ at a recent event in Michigan. It’s the sort of thing we’re used to hearing from Iran but not in our own country.
During The Five on FOX News this week, Greg Gutfeld talked about this issue and where he sees this going. He suggests that the problem is going to get worse as left-leaning cities will be come mini-Gazas throughout the country.
He also asks why we are putting up with it.
Transcript via Real Clear Politics:
I get the impression with the “Death To America” stuff that we are on a slow roll toward our own little Gazas. These little islands of unrest in the country. These were places that were sacrificed to leftism. Leftisms, where laws were discarded. Identity and division became the currency. Look at Minneapolis since George Floyd. It’s never been the same. It’s all these enclaves.
We were supposed to be a melting pot. But that requires melting. And instead what we are seeing is a hardening. It is a hardening. And we are always accused of xenophobia if we exalt our country’s awesomeness or make fun of another country’s customs. Fair enough. I get it. But it’s a two-way street. If you come here and reject assimilation, free speech, cooperation with people different than you.
Those are our values and if you reject them, you are xenophobic, you are anti-American. It’s not illegal, I guess. But why are we respecting it and why are we encouraging it? Leftism encourages this sort of behavior. It’s time for the adults to enter the room and basically change the conversation or these cities are gone.

National Public Radio is a liberal organization. Everyone knows this. What you may not know is that after Trump won the 2016 election, they went from liberal to full-on activist with a mission to damage Trump as much as possible.
They pushed the Russia collusion hoax and latched onto Rep. Adam Schiff, giving him another platform to push his lies.
They also famously refused to cover the Hunter Biden laptop story, calling it a non-news story.
One insider has come forward to tell all.
From the Free Press:
Like many unfortunate things, the rise of advocacy took off with Donald Trump. As in many newsrooms, his election in 2016 was greeted at NPR with a mixture of disbelief, anger, and despair. (Just to note, I eagerly voted against Trump twice but felt we were obliged to cover him fairly.) But what began as tough, straightforward coverage of a belligerent, truth-impaired president veered toward efforts to damage or topple Trump’s presidency.
Persistent rumors that the Trump campaign colluded with Russia over the election became the catnip that drove reporting. At NPR, we hitched our wagon to Trump’s most visible antagonist, Representative Adam Schiff.
Schiff, who was the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, became NPR’s guiding hand, its ever-present muse. By my count, NPR hosts interviewed Schiff 25 times about Trump and Russia. During many of those conversations, Schiff alluded to purported evidence of collusion. The Schiff talking points became the drumbeat of NPR news reports.

Certain groups are already calling for the Francis Scott Key Bridge, claiming that Key is a racist figure.
This was predicted by people on social media the instant the bridge collapsed. Lots of people were saying that Democrats would want to rename it for Rep. Elijah Cummings, but that’s not who is being floated as a replacement name.
The left just can’t help themselves in a situation like this. Any time they see an opening, they feel compelled to move.
FOX News reports:
African American groups call for ditching ‘racist’ Francis Scott Key, naming new bridge after late congressman
A coalition of African American groups in Maryland is pushing for Baltimore’s Francis Scott Key Bridge to be renamed once reconstructed over what they say is racism connected to Key’s legacy.
The Caucus of African American Leaders of Anne Arundel County recently voted unanimously to call for changing the names of two bridges in Maryland, including the Key Bridge, and will lobby Democratic Gov. Wes Moore and the state’s Democrat-controlled General Assembly on the proposal, the Baltimore Banner first reported Tuesday. The bridge collapsed in late March when a cargo ship struck a support beam.
The coalition includes groups such as an NAACP chapter and the National Coalition of 100 Black Women, which wants the replacement bridge to be renamed in honor of the late Rep. Parren Mitchell, the first African American elected to the U.S. House from the state of Maryland. Mitchell was also a civil rights pioneer as the first Black graduate student admitted to the University of Maryland.
When asked about the proposal, Moore told Fox News Digital that he remains “laser-focused on providing closure to these families, clearing the channel, and rebuilding the bridge.”
Lots of people saw this coming.
I called that they’d want to rename the Key Bridge the morning of.

Former DNC chairwoman Donna Brazile appeared on ABC News This Week on Sunday and complained that when Joe Biden speaks nobody listens.
That’s not completely true, of course. Lots of people listen when he lies about his personal history, or when he says completely stupid things about domestic and foreign policy.
What many people do not do, is take him seriously or pay attention to his opinions. Maybe that’s what Brazile really meant.
FOX News reports:
Ex-DNC chair Donna Brazile frets ‘nobody listens’ when Biden talks
Former DNC Chair Donna Brazile expressed frustration with the media coverage of President Biden on ABC’s “This Week” on Sunday, complaining that no one “listens” to the president when he speaks.
Brazile’s blunt remarks came during a discussion on the U.S. policy toward Israel, in which she was asked if Biden needed to be more upfront with Americans about the war in Gaza.
“Absolutely. Not just in Israel, Ukraine. We are a superpower. He is the Commander In Chief. Absolutely, he should speak out more,” she urged, before seeming to take a swipe at the media.
“Also we should cover what he’s saying because often when he speaks, nobody listens.”
Brazile’s comments follow several reports detailing the White House’s frustrations with media reports on Biden’s age and cognitive abilities.

If you turned on the TV on Monday afternoon, you couldn’t escape the media coverage of the solar eclipse. Pretty much every news network was covering it for hours. It was a hot topic for most of the day.
Knowing that this would happen, the Trump campaign put out a hilarious eclipse themed ad. You can watch it below.
The ad was obviously meant to be funny, but the liberal media cannot admit that, so they’re pretending to not get the joke.
Here’s the ad:

Townhall reported on the ridiculous media reactions:
Media Reaction to Trump’s Solar Eclipse Ad Is Something Else
All too predictably, mainstream outlets rife with joyless libs responded by attacking the ad as “bizarre” and saying Trump’s was “plunging the US into darkness.” In short, the feigned or real obtuseness of their takes betray the fact that there’s still nothing Trump could do that wouldn’t draw liberals’ outrage.
From TIME’s report:
In a new and bizarre campaign ad, Donald Trump’s head takes the place of the moon and blocks out the sun in a nod to Monday’s solar eclipse.
After getting the talking points/marching orders, The Independent joined the pile-on and also used “bizarre” to describe the ad:
On Sunday night, Mr Trump posted a bizarre campaign ad on Truth Social where his own head takes on the role of the moon – blocking out the sun and plunging America into total darkness.

Stores throughout greater San Francisco have been closing for months. Major retailers have ditched the city, as well as pharmacies and grocery stores. All mainly due to crime and theft.
Now lawmakers in the city want to allow residents to sue grocery stores for closing.
This is completely backwards. The city could stop all of the theft tomorrow if they wanted to by simply enforcing the law. Then the stores wouldn’t close in the first place. But that would entail admitting that the left’s policies are wrong and don’t work, so they’re going after the stores.
The New York Post reports:
San Francisco lawmakers want to let city residents sue grocery stores that close
A pair of progressive San Francisco lawmakers are pushing a bill that would allow residents in the crime-ravaged city to sue grocery stores that close up shop if they don’t give six months’ notice.
The proposal by San Francisco Board of Supervisors members Dean Preston and Aaron Peskin would require business to either find a successor grocer or work out a plan with residents in the neighborhood to ensure the availability of supermarket options.
The Grocery Protection Act – which is based on a proposal the board approved in 1984 that was vetoed by then-San Francisco Mayor Dianne Feinstein — comes amid a rash of retail theft fueled by the city’s drug and homelessness crisis that has led to several business closures.
Whole Foods closed its Market Street location last year after there were 568 emergency calls lodged in a 13-month period due to incidents such as vagrants throwing food, yelling, fighting and attempting to defecate on the floor, according to the New York Times. At least 14 arrests were made at the location.
This video shows some of the major retailers who have left the city in recent months. It’s amazing that the city allowed this to happen.

It has been maddening over the last several months to watch as colleges and universities indulge mobs of radical, anti-Israel students defending the terrorists of Hamas. Many schools, even in the Ivy League, have also tolerated disgusting displays of antisemitism.
Not at Pomona College in California, however.
Some of these students decided to invade a campus building where they didn’t belong and the school president made it clear that she wasn’t playing around. She warned the students to leave and ultimately suspended them and had them arrested.
FOX News reported:
California college president cracks down on protesting pro-Palestinian students: ‘Immediate suspension’
After a pro-Palestinian protest erupted at a California college on Friday, the president cracked down, saying that the students would be “subject to immediate suspension.”
President Gabrielle Starr of Pomona College in Claremont, California, addressed the campus community after she said a group of protesters refused to identify themselves to Campus Safety and Student Affairs staff and verbally harassed staff, including using an anti-black racial slur when speaking to an administrator.
“Any participants in today’s events on the SCC lawn or in Alexander Hall, who turn out to be Pomona students, are subject to immediate suspension,” Starr wrote in a letter to students on Friday evening.
“Students from the other Claremont Colleges will be banned from Pomona’s campus and subject to discipline on their own campuses. All individual participants not part of The Claremont Colleges community are hereby banned from campus immediately,” Starr said.
Watch the videos in this tweet, especially the one on the left.
When Pomona College students (and possibly others) rushed into an administrative building last night, President Gabi Starr told them they had 10 minutes to leave.
Then she suspended them and had them arrested.

It has been fascinating to watch over the last few years as the media, which spent four years relentlessly hammering Trump for anything and everything, does everything it can to protect Biden from even the slightest criticisms.
There are even times when the media spin gets so overstretched that they forget themselves and say something so outrageously untrue that it borders on comedy.
In this case, USA Today is making the bizarre claim that Biden has ‘clamped down’ on unauthorized border crossings. He has? When?
FOX News reports:
Social media users confused by USA Today claim that Biden has ‘clamped down on unauthorized border crossings’
Social media users this weekend were baffled by USA Today claiming that President Biden has “clamped down” on illegal immigration, blasting the outlet for making the claim in a recent piece about Biden’s visit to the site of the Baltimore bridge collapse.
The outlet published a report on Biden’s speech at the site of the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse on Friday, where he grieved for the six immigrant workers who died after a cargo ship struck the bridge and triggered the destruction.
In addition to noting that Biden used the opportunity to urge “Congress to take swift action to approve funding to rebuild the bridge,” the piece also mentioned the president taking action on illegal immigration to America.
It stated, “Biden, who has clamped down on unauthorized border crossings, steered clear of mentioning the victims’ status in the country, instead focusing on their contribution to their community.”

With the single exception of Greg Gutfeld, all of the late night ‘entertainment’ hosts now come off as consultants for the Democrat party. Colbert and the rest regularly host guests like Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders.
One new development is that some of these hosts are now using their shows to advise Biden and other world leaders on foreign policy, specifically when it comes to the conflict between Israel and Hamas. Naturally, the hosts are taking the position of the far left.
When did these hosts start to believe that they were this important?
The Hill reports:
Colbert’s message to Netanyahu after World Central Kitchen deaths: ‘Consider ending the war’
Stephen Colbert is calling on Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to end the country’s war with Hamas, making an impassioned plea following the deaths of six World Central Kitchen workers and a translator in Gaza.
“One of our self-imposed mandates is that, if we can, we talk about what everybody’s talking about. And today, what everybody’s talking about is something that’s pretty hard to talk about: Israel and Gaza,” Colbert said on Wednesday’s “The Late Show.”
“Since Hamas attacked Israel on Oct. 7, the world has seen the horrible, inhuman cost of this conflict. And there is passionate disagreement in this country about what is the best way for Israelis and Palestinians to achieve a peaceful and prosperous future,” Colbert said.
“But I hope there’s one thing we can all agree on: Human beings should have food and water.”
Seth Meyers also recently waded into this debate.
Breitbart News reported:
Seth Meyers Panics: Biden Risks Losing to Trump without Ceasefire in Gaza
NBC’s late-night host Seth Meyers is panicking over the prospect of a Trump victory in November, saying that President Joe Biden’s failure to make good on his promise of a ceasefire in Gaza is alienating Democrats in key swing states.
Seth Meyers noted that Biden made that very promise during an appearance on Late Night in February — and that there’s still no ceasefire.
“[Voters] are understandably upset Biden keeps claiming he’s frustrated with Netanyahu’s handling of the war, while simultaneously sending more weapons to support that war against the wishes of a majority of Americans,” Meyers said on Wednesday’s show.
Meyers gives the game away here. This is all about the election.
Colbert, Meyers, and lots of other people on the left are terrified that anti-Israel leftists are going to punish Biden and hand the election to Trump.

Donald Trump is closing in on Joe Biden in blue New Jersey, according to new polling from Emerson College and The Hill. The race is within single digits.
Democrats will lose their minds if Trump takes Michigan, Wisconsin or Pennsylvania, but that will be nothing compared to the absolute meltdown we will see if Trump takes New Jersey.
Months ago, the Trump campaign said that they were going to make a serious play for New York and New Jersey. It looks like it will be worth their time to do some campaigning there.
Breitbart News reports:
Poll: Donald Trump Within Single-Digits of Joe Biden in Blue New Jersey
Former President Donald Trump is within single digits of President Joe Biden in blue New Jersey, the latest survey from Emerson College Polling/PIX11/the Hill found.
The survey asked respondents, “In a hypothetical 2024 Presidential match-up between Joe Biden and Donald Trump, who would you vote for at this time?”
Less than a majority, 46 percent, said they would vote for Biden, followed by 39 percent who said they would support Trump. This puts Biden’s lead in the single digits in New Jersey — a difference of seven percentage points between the two. Another 15 percent remained undecided.
Biden’s lead shrinks even further when third-party candidates are thrown into the mix. In that scenario, 41 percent support Biden, followed by 36 percent who support Trump — a difference of five percentage points.
See the breakdown below:
New Jersey GE: Emerson/The Hill
Biden 46% (+7)
Trump 39%

Biden 41% (+5)
Trump 36%
RFK Jr 8%
West 1%
Stein 1%

Some people seem very convinced about Trump’s chances in New Jersey.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again:
President Trump WILL win New Jersey.
Our grassroots group, the America First Republicans of NJ, have held 15 Rallies across the state for The President so far, and have drawn big crowds every time.
We will continue…and W IN! pic.twitter.com/xp0EizjR3d

Democrats are ‘freaked out’ over the possibility that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will take votes away from Joe Biden and ultimately help Trump win the 2024 election, according to a new report from NBC News.
Dems are terrified of a repeat of the 2016 election, where Green party candidate Jill Stein took votes away from Hillary Clinton in states like Wisconsin.
Isn’t that just democracy? Don’t Democrats care about democracy? That’s what they’ve been telling the country for five or more years now.
From NBC News:
‘Freaked out’ Democrats mobilize to stop RFK Jr. from cutting into Biden
In fall 2016, a Hillary Clinton staffer stationed in the Upper Midwest got a call from the campaign’s headquarters in Brooklyn telling him to delete a joke he had tweeted about then-Green Party nominee Jill Stein…
This year, though, Democrats have adopted a radically different strategy on independent and third-party candidates. They’re waging an open war on the likes of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., whom they view as mortal threats to President Joe Biden’s re-election.
There are brand new super PACs — plural — devoted to crushing third-party candidates. Democratic National Committee mobile billboards troll Kennedy at events. And party donors are funding legal efforts to try to keep him off the ballot…
“Everyone thinks this is going to be decided on the head of a pin, so people are freaked out like never before,” said one senior Democrat, granted anonymity to speak candidly.
Democrats have grown increasingly alarmed by Kennedy’s strength in polls, especially since he named Silicon Valley philanthropist Nicole Shanahan as his running mate. Not only could she fund the cash-strapped campaign, but her selection and the way the campaign introduced her signaled that Kennedy is positioning himself more on the left in the 2024 campaign.
RFK recently appeared on the Jesse Watters’ show and commented on what the Democrats are doing.

The United Nations has selected a new ‘youth adviser’ named Ayisha Siddaqa. She is openly socialist and Marxist and blames climate change on capitalism and white men.
In other words, she is a perfect fit for the UN.
Siddaqa is from Pakistan. Has she ever examined the pollution created by her neighboring nation of India?
The New York Post reports:
UN adviser says the ‘white man has brought life as we know it to the verge of extinction’: ‘Racial harmony is fallacy’
A United Nations youth climate adviser has a history of social media posts that call for the destruction of capitalism, claim “terrorism” is used as a Western smear to justify its imperialism and attack White people for purportedly fueling humanity’s extinction vis-à-vis the climate crisis.
The United Nations’ Secretary-General António Guterres personally selected Pakistani-American Ayisha Siddiqa as one of his advisers to help “accelerat[e] the implementation of his climate action agenda,” a 2023 UN announcement stated. Siddiqa was a Time Woman of the Year in 2023 who has co-founded two youth climate activist organizations…
Siddiqa attributes a simple cause to climate change – White people.
In March 2021, she posted, “[T]he white man has brought life as we know it, to the verge of extinction.”
“The white man sits at the highest level of power in the world, the same way he has killed, looted and abused black and brown people for profit so has he the earth,” she posted in May 2022…
“We’re allowing White people to have too much space,” she said. “[W]hite people have absolutely no prerogative or authority to lead the movement.”
So she is openly racist?
Meet Ayisha Siddiqa (@Ayishas12), a climate adviser for the UN. She claims the "white man" and "capitalism" are responsible for bringing life to "the verge of extinction" and calls white men k*llers, looters, and abusers.
Her account is filled with hateful anti-white posts.… pic.twitter.com/jSbkVnW7KN

The Biden administration has been floating a ban on menthol cigarettes for months. Now they are apparently thinking of putting off the ban until after the election because they are worried about losing the support of black voters, although that is already happening.
It’s just one more reminder that this administration, and Democrats on the whole, care only about politics and retaining power. Everything they say and do is motivated by poll numbers and who they can manipulate into voting for them.
Not only that, but isn’t it a little bit racist to assume that only black people smoke menthol cigarettes?
The Washington Examiner reports:
Biden delays menthol ban amid 2024 concerns over black support
A two-year-old proposal to ban menthol cigarettes may be delayed until after the 2024 election as President Joe Biden weighs a move that could risk eroding his support within the black community.
The Food and Drug Administration first proposed banning menthols and flavored cigars in April 2022 but has since missed two deadlines for finalizing the rule, the second of which expired at the end of March.
“The FDA remains committed to issuing the tobacco product standards for menthol in cigarettes and characterizing flavors in cigars as expeditiously as possible,” the agency said in a statement, noting that the process is in its final stage. “As we’ve made clear, these product standards remain at the top of our priorities.”
But some observers say other priorities are behind the delay, namely the lack of support for the idea as the election sharpens into view.
It’s such a cynical and purely political move.
