Observations From the Back Row With News and Views For March 22, 2025

By Rich Kozlovich 

I save a lot of articles dealing with every issue facing mankind, and my draft file is large, so, I've created ways of saving them for reference purposes by creating gazettes, and News and Views pieces, and I will be linking them as add on pieces in order to purge my draft files and still have the ability to reference that material.   

Starting on Monday I will be posting a new daily feature called News and Views.  And while I've posted articles under that name this will be different.  It will consist of a list of linked articles I think are newsworthy, and where possible I will categorize them topically,  posting it later in the news day as most sites will be done posting their pieces by then.   

Anything posted later will be part of the next day's list.  Anything that appears on Saturday or Sunday will be linked with the Monday News and Views post.  What appears below are pieces I've been saving for quite a while, some going back a ways, and some very current, but not in chronological order.  

What's included are articles dealing with:

Abortion, Academia, Autopen, California, Celebrity Views, China, Christian Persecution, Covid, Deep State Corruption, FBI, Democrats, DOGE, Economics, Tariffs, Education, Energy, Europe, Immigration, Justice, Middle East, Race Hustlers, Russo/Ukrainian War, Transgenderism, and Voter Fraud.  

While not listed chronologically, they're all listed topically and alphabetically.  As a result, this piece is unusually long, as a Word document it would be over 30 pages, all others in the future will be much shorter.... much shorter.... as this is just a catch up piece.

Abortion
 
Oregon’s governor establishes an ‘abortion provider appreciation day’ March 11, 2025 by Olivia Murray Does this mean the progressive left has finally and totally conceded that baby murder isn’t anything but a celebration to them? More

Academia

Columbia Crumbles - Money talks, even when you have a $15 billion endowment. So Columbia has acceded to the Trump administration’s demands to get back the $400 million in federal funding that Trump revoked over the university’s anti-Semitism........

Schools nationwide are watching Columbia with alarm; many fear a demand for similar concessions. Their primary concern: without freedom to follow their intellectual curiosity, the discoveries and innovations that fuel the U.S.’s economy will decline or even grind to a halt.

Yes, the “intellectual curiosity” to vandalize buildings and beat up Jews. It’s a pity: no doubt Mahmoud Khalil was just about to discover a cure for cancer. Now Syria or Algeria will get the benefit of his intellectual curiosity and spirit of innovation....

Ivy League university webinar says science is too male, too hetero, and too fetus-centric -  The presentation by two lefties was titled, “Is Fat Female? Evolution, Feminism, and Getting the Story Right.” According to a recent article on thecollegefix.com, during a recent online event at Cornell University, feminist ‘scholars’ discussed their concerns about science being too male, too “hetero,” and too “feto-centric.” Really. ........To recap: males are bad. Straight males are worse. Babies are bad. Fat can be good.........

Shalom, Mahmoud! - If Mahmoud really wanted to be a revolutionary at Columbia, he could have done something genuinely radical—joined the College Republicans, read the collected works of P.J. O’Rourke, or written a thesis on why Adam Smith is the most unappreciated intellectual of the last 500 years.   
 
America has many traditions—apple pie, baseball, and, thanks to Columbia University, mass-producing trust-fund revolutionaries with a soft spot for Hamas. But as it turns out, supporting terrorist organizations while enjoying a cushy student life in the U.S. isn’t quite as consequence-free as our academic betters would have you believe.

Enter Mahmoud Khalil, the Columbia campus firebrand turned deportation candidate. ICE picked him up, shipped him off to Louisiana, the White House hit send on a two-word masterpiece—“Shalom, Mahmoud”—and suddenly, an entire generation of Ivy League agitators needed fainting couches and emotional support kombucha............

Send them home March 10, 2025 - It makes no sense for people, students or faculty, to come here and engage in illegal activities.  Cheers for the Trump administration. We learned yesterday that some students may going home sooner than expected. Here is the story:.....

College Can’t Punish Math Professor for Criticizing Low Academic Standards, Appeals Court Rules - Lars Jensen was nearly fired for handing out flyers about potential harm to the community from lowering the "academic level" of math classes. Oregon sows the wind, reaps the whirlwind in "staggeringly low" student proficiency. .....

Dershowitz: We Have to Go After All ‘Propaganda’ Studies Programs - On Friday’s broadcast of Newsmax TV’s “The Record,” Harvard Law Professor Emeritus Alan Dershowitz praised the Trump administration for ending $400 million in federal grants to Columbia University and stated that we have to “smash these bureaucracies, this intersectionality, and the DEI. All of this is destroying higher education.”  Dershowitz said that the Columbia move “is just the beginning. This is going to apply to Harvard and Yale and NYU and UCLA and the University of California. This is going to create a revolutionary effect on higher education and make sure that we get back to the day where colleges and universities educate instead of propagandizing. These universities today are not teaching their students how to think. They’re teaching them what to think in a propagandistic way.”..........

Trump’s defunding Columbia is great, but all academia is riddled with ideological madness March 9, 2025 by Andrea Widburg The $400 million pulled from Columbia is that it’s the first step in a journey of 1,000 miles and billions of taxpayer dollars......
 
Why a former Columbia professor is glad that the feds have yanked $400 million in funding from it March 11, 2025 by Thomas Lifson I almost cheered out loud when I read that the Trump administration has cancelled $400 million in funding for Columbia University ...........
 
Autopen 

Null and void: Autopen misstep means arrests are now on the table - Until today, the Democratic Party Deep State (DPDS) and its propaganda bureaus — once known as “news media” — have carefully avoided the Autopen scandal, because it hasn’t had any consequences that couldn’t be comfortably ignored.  But this morning, President Trump declared that all the pardons Joe Biden allegedly signed, during his final days in office, are null and void...........
 
Was Biden aware of anything? March 9, 2025 by Mike McDaniel If Joe didn’t know about those documents, if he didn’t sign them, who did?........
 
There Needs To Be An Investigation of Biden’s State of Mind  “They must now be made to testify in front of the American people.”..........
 
California
 
Schweizer: ‘Fool’s Gold’ Blows the Lid on California Corruption - If you think you know how bad things are in California, you don’t. If you think you know how corrupt the state’s leading politicians are, it’s worse than that. Sticky-fingered pols pushing woke policies have turned the Golden State into fool’s gold......
 
After blowing $9 billion on 'free' health care for illegals, California's Gov. Gavin Newsom asks for a bailout March 13, 2025 by Monica Showalter - Who didn't see this coming from ten miles away?...........
 
California tries to tear down the Castle Doctrine - That’s virtue signaling, California style. A few decades ago the movement for concealed carry began. Anti-liberty/gun cracktivists were outraged. There would be wild west gunfights everywhere! The streets would run with blood! Of course, none of that happened. More recently, the Constitutional Carry movement caught fire, and the same predictions of blazing gunplay were made and failed to materialize. More than half the states allow constitutional carry and every state allows concealed carry of some sort. No state that has adopted concealed or constitutional carry has repealed either.....

California Dems Offer Prayer to a Strange New God to Open Assembly Session -Okay, wait, I thought they worshiped Dylan Mulvaney. But if the Democrats are anything, they’re full of surprises, as we saw at the California state assembly on Friday. A Democrat assembly member offered a prayer to open the assembly session, as is the time-honored custom, but the prayer wasn’t to any deity that you’d learn about in the average world religions course, even in these latter days of American colleges and universities being reduced to little more than Antifa recruitment centers. The prayer was offered to none other than Beyoncé.

Celebrity Views

Singer Courtney Love ‘Getting British Citizenship’ Because America ‘Frightening’ Under Trump: ‘Like Cyanide Now’ - Singer Courtney Love has announced that she is soon “getting British citizenship” because she claims America is “frightening now” since President Donald Trump returned to the White House......She slammed America as “frightening now.”  “In terms of Trump, and particularly this group… it’s like emperor-core – like, [they’re] wearing million-dollar watches,”....... “It’s like cyanide now.”....... “I love London, it’s my favorite city and is the best place I’ve ever lived.............I’m left alone, there are laws here that protect me when I’m being outspoken, I like the friends I’ve made here'.......

Trump-O-Phobia Drives Some Americans to Questionable Greener Pastures Overseas Brian C. Joondeph They probably won't find this the 'solution' they think it is. More
 
My Take - Goodbye and good riddance
 

Americans Don't Want to Hear Celebrities Spew Their Political Beliefs - A new poll released this week confirms what many Americans already knew – the majority of people do not want to hear their favorite celebrities’ political opinions.  Late last year, Townhall covered how singer Taylor Swift announced on Instagram that she would be voting for Vice President Kamala Harris. Swift has over 284 million followers. But, a poll showed that more voters said that her endorsement would turn them away from voting for Harris than support her. ..............
 
Debra Winger, Joe Rogan: It’s hard out there for a Jew - Currently, we are experiencing the worst overt, monolithic Jew-hatred in American history.  One would think Jews would band together in battle against this threat.  But no — useful idiots and just plain ignoramuses have jumped to the head of the line to enhance the madness.  Has-been Jewish actress Debra Winger, of An Officer and a Gentleman and Terms of Endearment faded fame, recently exclaimed she had a debt to repay, presumably to the Jewish people. .......From the mid-1930s in Berlin, initially German Jews did not want to believe the evolving Jew-hatred emanating from the four corners of a once highly civil society.  But emanated it did, and ultimately six million Jews and others were murdered before the Nazi regime was vanquished.......
 
China 
 
How Mexico Became China’s Trojan Horse in U.S. Trade - Beijing has discovered a highly effective workaround to Trump’s tariffs that the media deliberately ignore.......The second Trump administration has refocused America’s attention on trade, tariffs, and national security—a conversation long overdue. But while pundits and policymakers wrangle over China’s economic warfare and Mexico’s growing defiance, few are paying attention to the real story hiding in plain sight..........China and Mexico aren’t just separate trade problems. They are one and the same..............
 
Active-duty soldiers indicted for disclosing sensitive government info to China - The DOJ decried the ‘persistent and increasing foreign intelligence threat facing our Army and nation.’ On Thursday, federal grand juries in the District of Oregon and the Western District of Washington handed down indictments against three individuals linked to the U.S. military.  Jian Zhao and Li Tian were both active-duty soldiers stationed at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, and the third, Ruoyu Duan, is a former soldier.........
 
The China Connection? It’s not racist to be concerned that Chinese spies are targeting vulnerable Chinese-American troops.......A dramatic illustration of how wokism is injuring US national security is currently on display in the nation’s news media. On March 7, a Portland Hoodline headline blared “Trio of U.S. Army Soldiers at Joint Base Lewis-McChord Indicted for Selling Military Secrets to Chinese Interests”..............And yet here we are with three soldiers clearly of Chinese descent accused of successful espionage by selling secret information to Chinese agents. Is it not highly notable that not one of these news posts dares raise questions about how this happened............

Report: Chinese wind turbines purchased by the West may become weapons of political coercion - German progressives remind us how slow on the uptake they are...........The German progressives, who have already been famously scolded by President Trump for their short-sighted and suicidal reliance on Russian energy—which led to a historical energy crisis—are reminding us how slow on the uptake they really are as news emerges that their dependence on hostile foreign nations for crucial infrastructure needs is once again biting them in the rear.......
 
China’s 4-Stage Strategy to Surpass the USA  If the United States is to maintain its technological lead over China, then it must step up its game.  As China stands on the threshold of competing with the United States in critical technology fields, such as A.I., biotechnology, and computing, it’s important to understand the four-stage strategy that has propelled the nation to this point.  This approach has allowed China to bypass stages of development, catching up and in some areas achieving technological dominance.........
 
Meta Attempted to Enter China by Promising Censorship - Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta went to great lengths, including developing a censorship system and potentially sharing user data, in an unsuccessful bid to bring Facebook to China, according to a whistleblower complaint..........
 
House Lawmakers Seek to Crack Down on China’s Secret Police Stations in US - ‘We should find, prosecute, and sanction any Chinese Communist Party official involved in standing up police stations on U.S. soil,’ Rep. Ashley Hinson said...........
 
The Threat of China’s Secret Police Stations on Our Soil - When you think of a local police station—not the headquarters building but a smaller neighbourhood branch—what comes to mind? Likely a few things: a sense of security that the police are nearby if trouble brews, a place to touch base with law enforcement officers, perhaps a way for police to engage in outreach with residents. Overall, a positive vibe.
 
What, then, comes to mind when you learn that the People’s Republic of China (PRC) has set up a “police station” around the corner from your house? Likely anything but the scenarios just listed.  China denies—of course!—that such places exist. But they do, in several cities across 50 nations worldwide, including at least five in Canada and four in the United States. It is unclear whether all these stations remain operational. The Canadian government finally began “investigating” them two years ago (who knows how long they had been in operation up until then). The RCMP announced in June 2023 that it had “shut down” these facilities..........

Christian Persecution
 
Butcher Christians in the Middle East and receive a VIP invite to an EU conference in Brussels - Syria’s new president is the man of the hour for European progressives.........Syria’s new head of state, Ahmed al-Sharaa, the violent Islamist—but I repeat myself—who rose to power after his forces toppled Bashar al-Assad, is the man of the hour for European progressives, as the European Commission recently extended an invitation to the interim president to attend a “donor conference” in Brussels. This is all despite the fact that under his watch, thousands of civilians, many of the Christian faith, have been slaughtered in the streets by what are reportedly, government forces............
 
Syria: The graveyard of Christianity - And the West is complicit. Syria has become a graveyard for ancient Christianity.  What was once home to some of the world’s oldest churches is now rubble — its crosses toppled, clergy hunted, and Christian families driven from their homes or slaughtered outright.  Under Bashar al-Assad’s brutal regime, Syria was no model of liberty.  But there was a fragile balance.  Christians, though never truly free, were tolerated — and even protected at times — as a stabilizing force against the rise of Islamist extremism..........
 .
Without God, There is No TRUE Respect for Human Life - Give people a good rationale for being psychopaths, for long enough, and a more psychopathic civilization just may be your fate. ..........Since my title is bound to inspire criticism that I’m a “God botherer,” I’ll preface what follows by stating that I wasn’t always the halo-adorned, floating-in-the-ether desert mystic (without the sand or heat) you behold today. I wasn’t raised with faith, and as a 12-year-old was an agnostic who’d say, “I’d never believe or disbelieve in anything there’s no proof of.” Later on I’d be rather dismissive of theists, actually, viewing them as God botherers myself, though we didn’t have that term or as many Richard Dawkins-like secularist warriors back then. I suppose we were, relatively speaking, handicapped in our exercise of supercilious anti-theism.....
 
Revisiting a Forgotten History of Christian Political Activism - A new insight regarding the Christian response to politics — from a pre-Revolutionary War pastor. Since the Obama years, pastors and church leaders have felt emboldened to promote Liberal/Leftist/Statist political points-of-view. Conservative Christians, on the other hand, have tended to assiduously stay in the lane of “Jesus only”. Don’t comment on culture. Don’t comment on politics........
 
The Law v. The Church - Putting the best interests of illegal aliens above Americans. In contrast to cultural issues like abortion, homosexuality, and same-sex marriage, leftists are once again in league with their longstanding Christian allies on immigration: The Catholic Church. Pope Francis has rejected what he calls “hatred, discrimination or exclusion” in Trump’s immigration policies, and even denounced Trump’s migrant deportation plan as a “disgrace.”  Meanwhile, relief agencies like Catholic Charities USA have long been accused of helping facilitate illegal immigration to this country...........
 
Why the Silence About the Slaughter of Christians in Syria?  - For 14 years, Syria has been engulfed in a civil war. Until three months ago, dictator Bashar al-Assad controlled the government, but he was overthrown by the Jihadist group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), an al-Qaeda affiliated terrorist organization. While Assad had many faults he did protect the Christian minority in Syria. However, as noted by commentator Tucker Carlson, as the civil war progressed, “The percentage of Christians in Syria went from ten percent to two percent.”.............
 
Covid.  
 
My Take - It turns out the bugman was right again, imagine that. Here's a link to one of my many articles on the false covid disaster that was imposed on the world. 
 
Major Autopsy Study Finds Scars in Hearts of Covid-Vaxxed - Two of Japan’s leading medical researchers have issued a warning after their major autopsy study found that people who died from a sudden cardiac arrest had multiple scars in their hearts caused by Covid mRNA “vaccines.” The study was conducted by cardiologist Dr. Tomomi Koizumi and pathologist Dr. Masao Ono of the Mito Medical Center in Higashi-Ibarakigun, Japan. They sought to identify the cause of spikes in “unexplained cardiac arrest.”..............
 
Exclusive: Dr. Mark Trozzi & Dr. Regina Watteel Expose the COVID Cover-Up—Weaponized Science, Rigged Data, and Crimes Against Humanity with Video - In an exclusive interview with RAIR Foundation, Dr. Mark Trozzi and Dr. Regina Watteel, PhD, exposed the systemic fraud and coercion that underpinned government COVID-19 policies, revealing how medical institutions weaponized pseudoscience to enforce dangerous mandates and silence dissenting experts. They detailed how an intricate web of political, corporate, and academic collusion ensured that dissent was crushed, fraudulent studies were upheld, and the public was force-fed a narrative that had no basis in reality...........

Study Warns That Adolescents With Heart Damage After Covid “Vaccine” Face Long-Term Health Challenges -  Children and young people who suffered heart damage after receiving a Covid mRNA “vaccine” are facing long-term, and possibly life-long, health issues, a new study has revealed.  A team of South Korean researchers, led by Professor Yoonsun Yoon of Korea University College of Medicine’s Department of Pediatrics, sought to investigate rising concerns over myocarditis and pericarditis following mRNA injections.  The study was conducted in conjunction with colleagues at the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency......

Japan Issues Alert as Deaths Surge Among Vaxxed Children - Leading experts in Japan have issued a global alert to call for an urgent reassessment of worldwide vaccination programs after linking a recent surge in child deaths to “vaccines.” A bombshell new study published in the Springer Nature peer-reviewed journal Discover Medicine raises the alarm over the issue after connecting several child deaths to “vaccinations.”

They Knew. They All Knew. March 17, 2025 — John Hinderaker - It is now just about universally acknowledged that the covid-19 virus escaped from the Wuhan Institute of Virology, where gain of function research was being conducted with the support of the U.S. government. This was vociferously denied for years by Western governments, apparently because they were afraid to cross the Chinese Communist Party. But it came out a few days ago that Germany knew all along that covid-19 was a lab leak.

Did COVID Nearly Start a Revolution? - Things changed quickly three years ago. Let’s revisit the tumultuous second half of 2021.  Dementia-addled President Joe Biden executed a disastrous retreat from Afghanistan in August that resulted in the killing of thirteen servicemembers.  Having spectacularly failed America’s warfighters, he transitioned quickly to the ongoing “fight against COVID.”  ......
 
Covid Redux: The Bird Flu Scare - Instead of directly targeting humans, our food is the focus for the creation and mandating of ineffective vaccines — it stands to devastate our food supply, and cause mass starvation. ..........
 
Whoops! Cori Bush's Husband Just Got Indicted by the DOJ for COVID Fraud - We haven't heard a whole lot from former Congresswoman Cori Bush (D-MO) since she left office at the end of the 118th Congress (having been defeated in the Democratic primary last August by former St. Louis County Prosecutor Wesley Bell). But that doesn't mean all's been quiet in her world...............
 
Deep State Corruption, FBI
 
 FBI Agent Who Opposed Trump’s First Term Charged for Disclosing Confidential Information - An FBI agent who opposed President Donald Trump during his first term was arrested and charged on Monday for sharing confidential information to write a memoir. The arrest of 15-year FBI veteran, Jonathan Buma, occurred at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City on Monday. He was accused of “printing about 130 files of classified FBI documents and messages and later sharing the material with associates for a book he was writing about his career at the bureau,” per Fox News...........
 
FOIA: Biden’s Army Trained Soldiers to Believe Pro-Lifers Were Terrorists and Jews Invented Terrorism - When President Trump fired several of the military’s top brass this past February, the mainstream media echoed the headlines in the usual doomsday tone we’ve all come to expect, labeling it as “unprecedented” and that it was a cause for “concern” that endangered the traditional nonpolitical role of the military. Well, based on what we uncovered, it appears a shake-up in leadership was in order.........
 
Time for the Trump DOJ and FBI to Deal the Pain- We’ve all seen those uppity federal judges presuming to tell the executive branch when it can deport enemy aliens, when it can fire useless government flunkies, and when members of the administration must stand or sit to pee. Like much of the lawfare against Donald Trump, this craziness is going to come to nothing. It’s all going to turn to ashes in their soft, girlish little hands. But here’s the thing – we control federal law enforcement right now. That means we get to set the agenda, and we need to ruthlessly and brutally use the law to defeat our enemies’ outrageous and disgraceful attacks upon patriotic Americans.....
 
FBI Turns Over Biden-era DOJ Weaponization Docs to the House Judiciary Committee -  These are the files that Democrats do not want in the hands of Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH). The chair of the House Judiciary Committee received the Biden-era Department of Justice weaponization docs from the FBI. Its contents aren’t January 6-related, but one that went underreported for years: the alleged crusade against pro-life activists. Jerry Dunleavy of Just the News has more:.......

Here Are Some of the Biggest Bombshells Uncovered by Internet Sleuths in the Newly Released JFK Files - President Donald Trump ordered the release of approximately 1,123 PDF files of previously classified documents related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, fulfilling a long-standing promise to declassify all remaining records. These files, part of the President John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection, are accessible online at the National Archives (JFK Release 2025) or in person at the National Archives at College Park, Maryland.  Internet sleuths and researchers have been combing through these files, uncovering what they believe are significant revelations.............
 
The Dems Don't Want These Docs in the Hands of Jim Jordan - These are the files that Democrats do not want in the hands of Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH). The chair of the House Judiciary Committee received the Biden-era Department of Justice weaponization docs from the FBI. Its contents aren’t January 6-related, but one that went underreported for years: the alleged crusade against pro-life activists. Jerry Dunleavy of Just the News has more:..
 
The FBI Must Investigate Itself And, Once Cleaned, Several Other Political Crimes - The Epstein and Seth Rich cases are the beginning of cleaning out the Deep State, including the rot in the FBI and DOJ, but there’s much more to do.....
 
San Francisco Pride hemorrhages corporate dollars, will ‘make do’ with tight budget March 18, 2025 by Olivia Murray Without government pressure, companies are now able to curry favor with customers, not the LGBTQ mafia.......
 
Stacey Abrams really, really, wants 'her' $2 billion from Biden's EPA slush fund  Not a whit of shame at this pork barrel scheme, just hand over the money, honey ........Is there a bigger pig at the government trough than Stacey Abrams?  After EPA chief Lee Zeldin uncovered a massive $2 billion cash haul earmarked for a coalition of five NGOs called Power Forward Communities, one of which was closely linked to Stacey Abrams, Abrams decided to sue the government to get "her" money back. No hiding from embarassment at the revelations of how pop-up NGOs were scarfing up government cash in a "gold brick" pork-barrel scheme in the wretched days after President Trump was re-elected, trying to grab as much cash as possible as they headed out the door.  In Mexico, this practice has a name: "La Piñata."............
 
Democrats
 
Joe Biden Quietly Meets with DNC Chairman in Bid to Get 'Back In': Report- Supporters of President Donald Trump aren’t used to getting good news from establishment media outlets when it comes to the Biden family. After legacy media spent four years covering for an increasingly debilitated Joe Biden rambling around the White House, conservatives have good reason to be suspicious of just about any mainstream news about the former president and his plans. But if an NBC report Friday is on point, it could be the best thing for the GOP since the results of the November election came in.........
 
Democrats May Face Their Own “Tea Party Revolt” as Approval From Their Base Dips - As approval ratings for the Democrats have hit a low point, the political party may face something of its own "Tea Party revolt" that the Republican Party faced in the 2010s, according to a report from Politico.  The report comes just as many Hollywood donors snubbed a fundraiser that was held for House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries this week, where left-wing donors feel that the party's leadership is not performing as it should to take on President Donald Trump..............
 
“It’s a Mistake”: Megadonor Who Left the Democrats Says AOC and Bernie Sanders’s Anti-Oligarchy Tour Will Backfire -  Former Democrat megadonor John Morgan told NewsNation host Chris Cuomo Thursday that Sen. Bernie Sanders’ anti-oligarchy tour featuring Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez will backfire, saying both politicians motivate President Donald Trump’s supporters. The Vermont independent launched his “Fighting Oligarchy” tour in February, with the New York Democrat set to participate at multiple rallies. Morgan, who was very critical of former Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign in 2024, argued on “CUOMO” that Democrats should step aside rather than actively and outwardly oppose the Trump administration................
 
Taxation as a Moral Question - Appearing March 18 on ABC’s The View, Senate minority leader Chuck Schumer criticized Americans who think their taxes are too high.  Channeling his inner Barack Obama (“you didn’t build that”), Schumer asserted: “Their attitude is, ‘I made my money all by myself.  How dare your government take my money from me?  I don’t want to pay taxes.  Or ‘I built my company with my bare hands.  How dare your government tell me how I should treat my customers, the land and water that I own, or my employee?’”.....
 
Democrat Dimwit Jasmine Crockett Is the Best Gift Democrats Have Given to Republicans - Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) might be one of the biggest gifts the Democratic Party has bestowed upon the GOP since AOC. Crockett has made quite a name for herself after taking office in 2023. She has been known for her grandstanding antics and pugilistic approach to political discourse. Unfortunately for her and her party, she is not nearly as good at this game as she would like..............
 
Radical Leftists, Communists, and Antisemites Declare War on The Heritage Foundation’s Project Esther - Ever heard of The Heritage Foundation’s Project Esther? It was put into play a year after the horrific slaughter by Hamas in Israel of over 1,200 innocent souls on October 7, 2023. That was followed by hellish rapes, butchery, torture, and kidnapping. According to The Heritage Foundation, the project is “named after the historic Jewish heroine who saved the Jews from genocide in ancient Persia, Project Esther provides a blueprint to counter antisemitism in the United States and ensure the security and prosperity of all Americans.”......
 
Schumer Mocks ‘Greedy’ Americans Who Want Less Taxes, Less Government Control - Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) mocked so-called “greedy” Americans for wanting to keep more of their hard-earned money and wanting less government control over their lives. During an episode on ABC’s The View on Tuesday, Schumer spoke about the recent government spending bill, which President Donald Trump recently signed. As Breitbart News previously reported, Schumer explained that he voted in favor of keeping the government open because a “Republican Senator told Democrats the plan was to ‘decimate the entire federal government.”..........
 
Democrats and Muslims: No More Middle - One can see an eerily similar phenomenon in both the Democratic Party and Islam, namely, there is no more middle countering excesses at the extremes.  Imagine a Clinton Democrat coming out of a coma just now. Before he can be taught about that “internet thing”, you ask him to summarize his political views:............

Democrats Unmask Themselves - Three examples show how the Donkey Party was never serious about its professed deepest principles.......The Democrats stand primarily for their own personal power, prestige, and wealth.  To maintain these, they’ve patched together a rogue’s gallery of supporters, forcing party leaders to navigate an array of contradictions.  These incongruities between rhetoric and action blast torpedoes straight into their brand's tattered remains.  Four obvious contradictions were on full display this week......
 
Hills to Die On: Democrats know how to pick 'em - They raise high holy stinks about the rights of terrorists, sympathizers, and criminals to stay in the country and live among us.  What is it about Democrats and their urge to inflict criminals and terrorists upon us? In their quest to Get Trump on immigration, which is probably his strongest point with the public, they've picked three migrant cause célèbres they're waving at the public, promoting them as sob stories and "threats to democracy."  And boy, do they stink......

CNN Poll Shows That Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Is Leader of the Democrat Party - You might remember that during the whirlwind of the first weeks of President Donald Trump's second term, the question began to circle: Who is the leader of the Democrat Party? Chuck Schumer? Nancy Pelosi? Extreme Hakeem Jeffries?......

Cuck Schumer Cancels Book Tour Over “Security Concerns” After Caving to Trump and Angering Democrats -  The Democratic in-fighting is getting ugly. Democratic Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (N.Y.) is being mocked and ridiculed for canceling stops on a book tour after angering Democrats, who wanted him to fight against a Republican funding bill......

Leftists are dragging us through the worst parts of their ‘Groundhog Day’ March 18, 2025 by Andrea Widburg It’s been a disaster for America as they keep repeating their personal history, only every repetition is worse, without Democrats ever learning to “get it right.” .....
 
Democrats smashed on the rocks - Polls are bearing out what we all suspect: The Democrat party is in steep decline, with no sign of a course correction.....A new NBC News poll found that a scant 7% of registered voters have a “very positive” view of the donkey assemblage. Last November, real America roared back into bloom.  Voters swarmed polling sites to give Democrats a walloping so absolute that globalists the world over dropped megalomaniacal schemes and cowered. .......
  
Britain's lamest hour March 18, 2025 by Eric Utter The ruling Labour Party is targeting English pubs in many awful ways.   Britain’s Labour Party has introduced the “Employment Rights Bill,” which, of course, is actually about limiting the rights of the vast majority in order to protect the ‘rights’ of a relative few.  Clause 18 of the ERB would amend the Equality Act to force employers to “take all reasonable steps” to cocoon their staff from “harassment” by “third parties.”......
  
How the Fate of the West is Tied to the Fate of the Jewish Nation - Janet Levy Josh Hammer’s new book, releasing today, is life-changing.  Why is Israel alone forced to justify its existence and questioned when it stands up to those who would annihilate it?  Why was a worldwide campaign of hatred that reeked of anti-Semitism unleashed on Israel when it responded to the October 7, 2023, attack, while there was no criticism of Hamas?  Why has the U.N. censured the Jewish state more times than any other nation, even China, North Korea, and Cuba combined?......
 
Leftists are dragging us through the worst parts of their ‘Groundhog Day’ March 18, 2025 by Andrea Widburg It’s been a disaster for America as they keep repeating their personal history, only every repetition is worse, without Democrats ever learning to “get it right.”.....
 
Democrats smashed on the rocks - Polls are bearing out what we all suspect: The Democrat party is in steep decline, with no sign of a course correction. ..........
 
A deplorable explains why the Dems will probably run AOC in 2028 - Still inexplicably clinging to the failed policies of the Biden years, they need another insentient puppet.  My mother was as tough as an old bar of iron. Anytime I worked up the guts to ask her, “Why”, she’d stab me in the chest with her bony finger and hiss back, “Because I said so, that’s why!” And I’d instantly plop back down into my lowly place—but at least she respected me enough to answer my question, which is more than I can say for Joe Biden......
 
Democrats Are Just the Worst People - I know, I know – Donald Trump has been no saint in his personal life. I’ve never really cared – as I’ve repeated for years, I was voting for president, not Pope (though, given how this Pope is on the border, I’d vote for Trump there too). But Democrats would not let it go. “He’s a cheater!” The party of every Kennedy until 5 months ago screamed as though no one remembered anything about history. “He’s been accused of rape!” voices screamed from the wagons still circled around Bill Clinton and his enabler Hillary. One thing is certain: the old adage is true: Democrats are always guilty of what they accuse Republicans of doing......
 
Death by Lunacy -  The West has made a fundamental and destructive error. Can it still save itself?  Over the past few days, Sunni Muslims, under the nominal command of Syria’s new leader, went on killing sprees against Alawite and Christian citizens. The last number I saw had over 700 killed. Videos show Syrian army personnel riding on some of their victims, who are forced to bark like dogs before being shot dead. People had warned that an ISIS/Al-Qaeda government led by Abu Mohammed al-Julani would go against other ethnic groups sooner or later. Israel last week emphatically expressed its support for the Druze communities in southern Syria. Julani is smart, if nothing else. He dropped his fatigues, moved to nice suits and ties, and in no time was meeting with world leaders, including the head of the UN. Will any of them hold him accountable for the actions of his soldiers? I would not bet on it......
 

DOGE and More  

Inspector General Report Backs DOGE, Reveals Unused IRS Space Wastes Millions - The Department of Government Efficiency’s cutting of Internal Revenue Service office space is consistent with the federal government’s earlier findings about excessive expenses within the tax collecting agency. The Trump administration will reportedly close more than 110 IRS offices across the country.  In June, during the Biden-Harris administration, the Treasury Department’s Inspector General for Tax Administration, or TIGTA, issued a report stating a majority of IRS offices are less than half full. ......

Massive Censorship Scheme by USAID and Global Engagement Center Gets Exposed - Today, America First Legal (AFL) released explosive new documents obtained through ongoing litigation against the U.S. Department of State’s Global Engagement Center (GEC), exposing a vast, government-backed censorship operation to silence Americans under the guise of “misinformation,” “disinformation,” and “malinformation.” The documents reveal a disturbing alliance between the GEC, the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), the British Foreign, Commonwealth, Development Office (FCDO), and media censorship organizations, all working in lock-step to manipulate public discourse, control media narratives, and suppress free speech.

'DOGE has broken into our building': Federal bureaucrats panic, call cops for 'illegal takeover' - Officials at the U.S. Institute of Peace (USIP) called police Monday in a failed effort to block personnel from Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) from entering their Washington headquarters. Former USIP officials insisted DOGE had no authority to enter the building and remove its staff, claiming the institute operates independently of executive branch control despite operating almost entirely on federal funding. USIP, established by Congress in 1984, claims its mission is to "prevent violent conflicts and broker peace deals abroad," despite the U.S. having been involved in numerous military interventions, prolonged wars and rising global instability in the decades since..........

Rubio: Tens of Billions of USAID Contracts Terminated - Secretary of State Marco Rubio has stated that around 5,200 contracts—worth tens of billions of dollars—belonging to the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) have been terminated as the Trump administration continues efforts to abolish the agency. He added that the remaining contracts, about 18 percent of the total, will now be taken over by the State Department for management.....

Kelly: Musk’s ‘Slash and Burn’ of Government Is Ruining People’s Lives -  Senator Mark Kelly (D-AZ) said Monday on MSNBC’s “The Rachel Maddow Show” that the U.S. Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) was ruining people’s lives. Maddow said, “I have to ask you if you if you have any response tonight to what the president’s top campaign donor, Mr. Musk, said about you bluntly calling you a traitor in response to you writing about your your trip to Ukraine?”.............

The remaining 17 percent mainly originated from Costa Rica and Spain, as well as Panama, Canada, Mexico, and El Salvador..........

Elon Musk Claims IP Addresses Connected to ‘Massive Cyberattack’ on X Originated in Ukraine - Elon Musk claimed that IP addresses connected to a “massive cyberattack” on X, which caused significant outages throughout Monday, originated in Ukraine.

DOGE Says Children Aged 11 and Under Were Granted $312M in Loans During Coronavirus PandemicThousands of loans worth $312 million were granted to children during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) announced Saturday.   DOGE, which is headed by Elon Musk, said it had discovered that the Small Business Administration (SBA) had granted nearly 5,600 loans for $312 million to “borrowers whose only listed owner was 11 years old or younger at the time of the loan.” The loans were granted in 2020 and 2021...........

Trump Takes Aim at Government-Funded News Agency, Starts Dismantling 'Propaganda' -  President Donald Trump took a decisive step in overhauling the Voice of America (VOA) with a new executive order, slashing its operations and putting nearly all its employees on leave.

Economics/Tariffs
 
Let American companies compete with China on 5G - The Trump administration has rolled into Washington and they’re determined to shake things up. Already Trump has fired Joe Biden’s anti-business head of the Federal Trade Commission, Lina Khan, and replaced her with the more reasonable Andrew Ferguson.  Ferguson, along with Trump picks like Pamela Bondi and Gail Slater at the Department of Justice, suggest the new administration plans to be fairer to American companies than its predecessor. This new attitude can’t come soon enough. Team Trump will soon have to make a decision that will directly impact how the United States competes with China when it comes to the technologies of tomorrow..........
 
Taxation as a Moral Question - Appearing March 18 on ABC’s The View, Senate minority leader Chuck Schumer criticized Americans who think their taxes are too high.  Channeling his inner Barack Obama (“you didn’t build that”), Schumer asserted: “Their attitude is, ‘I made my money all by myself.  How dare your government take my money from me?  I don’t want to pay taxes.  Or ‘I built my company with my bare hands.  How dare your government tell me how I should treat my customers, the land and water that I own, or my employee?’”.....
 
Europe Postpones Tariffs on U.S. Whiskey and Other Goods, Fearing a Trade War With Trump -  The European Union (EU) says it will now delay implementing tariffs against the United States, originally planned to begin at the end of March, until mid-April. While European officials claim the delay is to give more time to refine the list of U.S. products subject to the tariffs, it is widely seen as allowing more time for negotiations with U.S. President Donald J. Trump‘s White House.  Olof Gill, a spokesman for the European Commission, confirmed the delay on Thursday. “This provides additional time for discussions with the U.S. administration,” he stated...............
 
POTUS Gets Tough: European Union, ’Treats Us Terribly on Trade’…India ’One of the Highest Tariffing Nations in the World’ -  President Donald Trump told Breitbart News exclusively on Wednesday afternoon that his phone calls on Tuesday with Russian President Vladimir Putin and on Wednesday with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky were “two very good conversations.”......

Tariffs, Tariffs Everywhere: What the Latest China Tariffs on Canada Are About - The timing of the tariffs doesn’t appear to be just a coincidence.  As Canada grappled with shifting U.S. tariffs last week, China added to the pressure over the March 8 weekend, slapping new tariffs on Canadian agricultural and food products effective later this month.  But the timing of the China tariffs coming only now, several months after Canada put U.S.-matching levies on Chinese electric vehicles (EVs) and other products last October, doesn’t appear to be just a coincidence..........

The Tariff Is a Weapon - And it has short- and long-term effects, and Americans need to be conversant in all this. ....“Anyone who doesn’t take tariffs seriously is gravely mistaken — tariffs are a weapon of economic warfare.  They can have enormous consequences.”  Still, American voters are largely indifferent about  tariffs.  A survey by Quinnipiac University reported that 51 percent of respondents oppose Trump’s imposing tariffs on imports from Mexico, Canada, and China, whereas 38 percent support them.....
 
Canada, Europe bemoan the very tariffs they levy, advantages they give their own industries Such hypocrisy at the nation that bailed so many of them out in the past.  Canada and Europe, to the U.S.: “How dare you do to us what we did to you long ago! What gives you the right to do to us what we're doing to you now?!” Canada and several European nations (as well as other nations, such as China) have long placed tariffs on American goods, and/or subsidized their businesses and industries placing them at a distinct advantage over their American counterparts......

We have watched as our hard-earned tax dollars -- money taken from our paychecks, our businesses, our families -- have been siphoned off to fund endless wars, bloated bureaucracies, and foreign regimes while our own country crumbles. We have seen our elected officials, Republican and Democrat alike, become millionaires while sitting in office, amassing fortunes through lobbying, insider trading, and outright theft under the guise of “public service.”..........
 
Unleashing American Competitiveness: Trump and the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act - Unshackling private American companies from the FCPA is one step in leveling the playing field with China.  America’s Founders were students of the classics, and attempted to avoid the pitfalls of Greece and Rome in founding a republic. America’s first envoy to Russia, John Quincy Adams, also studied the classics and once remarked that to be without the works of the Roman philosopher Cicero would be akin to being without one of his own “limbs.” As a diplomat, Adams would have also known Cicero’s adage that the “sinews of war are infinite money.” The worlds of business, diplomacy, and war are closer than most generals, CEOs, or diplomats would admit. In a world that has been on the brink of World War III since 2022, the Trump administration fortunately seems to have read Cicero as well...........
 
Trump’s Timber Triumph: An America First Blueprint for Prosperity - America’s vast landscape can support timber plantations without destroying the environment. On March 1, 2025, President Donald Trump signed the “Freeing Our Forests” executive order, igniting a bold vision to vault U.S. lumber production to unprecedented heights. This is no mere policy tweak—it’s a seismic shift aligning with the America First ethos that propelled Trump back to the White House. By slashing bureaucratic shackles, targeting 95% domestic lumber self-sufficiency, and eyeing tariffs on foreign imports, Trump is reasserting American economic sovereignty. The move promises cheaper homes, robust jobs, and a rebuke to globalist trade imbalances. .........

Education
 
Weingarten: Axing Dept of Education Will Lead to Repeat of Damage from COVID School Closures We Have ‘Loneliness Crisis’ - On Thursday’s broadcast of “MSNBC Prime,” American Federation of Teachers President Randi Weingarten argued that eliminating the federal Department of Education will lead to a situation like the learning loss we saw during the coronavirus pandemic and said that we saw during COVID “kids don’t go through kindergarten more than once. They don’t go through first grade more than once. If you start cutting what we have in terms of elementary schools right now or high schools right now, how are we going to get it back?” And also stated that “We have a loneliness crisis.”........
 
Trump Signs the Order to Dismantle the Education Department - On Thursday afternoon, President Donald Trump signed an executive order to dismantle the Department of Education and return education decisions back to individual states............ Trump said ahead of the signing, "We're going to be returning education, very simply, back to the states where it belongs," adding that "Probably the cost will be half, and the education will be maybe many, many times better.".............

Closing the DoEPresident Trump has called the DoE a “big con job” -- and he’s absolutely right. It’s time to shut it down and put education back in the hands of parents and states, where it belongs.   On March 3, 2025, Linda McMahon was sworn in as the 13th Secretary of Education. The very next day, March 4, President Trump, in his address to Congress, reaffirmed his commitment to dismantling the Department of Education (DoE) as part of his ongoing efforts to return power to the states. Then, on March 5, 2025, President Trump took decisive action by signing Executive Order 14201, directing Secretary McMahon to begin the process of closing the DoE. This is a bold step that moves us closer to fulfilling a promise made to the American people............
 
Dem Gov. Walz: Axing Federal DOE Will Lead to Segregation - On Wednesday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “All In,” Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) responded to plans to eliminate the federal Department of Education by claiming that “Ruby Bridges needed to be escorted into those schools and the folks who went into Little Rock because we didn’t have an Education Department that ensured her civil rights were respected. That’s gone now.” And stated that “when Trump says it’s a bunch of bureaucrats interfering with your local schools, give local control, we’ll give you the money, it sounds pretty good. And we have not provided what that alternative looks like.”...
 
Energy  

EPA's Attempt to Roll Back Climate Regs May Come Down to One Key Legal Point. On his new role as head of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Lee Zeldin has proposed changes that would fundamentally alter government regulation of America’s energy and transportation industries—if the changes can survive legal challenges from environmental groups. ..........“We are driving a dagger straight into the heart of the climate change religion to drive down cost of living for American families, unleash American energy, bring auto jobs back to the U.S., and more,” Zeldin said in an official statement.  These changes, he said, would “roll back trillions in regulatory costs and hidden ‘taxes’ on U.S. families” and make it “more affordable to purchase a car, heat homes, and operate a business.”............

Ruling Gives EPA Green Light to Suspend Approvals for New Jersey Wind Power Project - An appeals board has upheld the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA’s) suspension of approved permits for a massive wind power venture off New Jersey’s coast in compliance with President Donald Trump’s Jan. 20 executive actions demanding an immediate freeze in offshore wind development and leasing. It could be the first of many similar remands, or reconsiderations, of issued permits in coming months as the EPA pauses wind power projects that have been permitted but haven’t started construction under the president’s directive........

Greenpeace Loses in North Dakota - A jury in North Dakota ordered the environmental group Greenpeace to pay more than $660 million to Energy Transfer and Dakota Access LLC for its role in defaming the company and inciting illegal behavior during protests against the Dakota Access Pipeline in 2016 and 2017. Energy Transfer filed the lawsuit in 2019, suing Greenpeace USA, Greenpeace International, and Greenpeace Fund.  The jury found Greenpeace USA liable for nearly $404 million, while Greenpeace Fund Inc. and Greenpeace International were each held responsible for approximately $131 million. It was the second-largest win in the history of Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher, the law firm representing the pipeline developer. In addition, it was “one of the largest and most complex civil suits” in North Dakota’s history, as reported by the North Dakota Monitor........

 $660 Million Dakota Pipeline Jury Verdict Could Put Greenpeace out of Business - Energy Transfer just won a $660 million jury verdict against Greenpeace, which is enough to put those anti-science fascists permanently out of business in America. Tee hee. Energy Transfer is the Texas-based pipeline company behind the Dakota Access Pipeline, which suffered through Greenpeace’s months long protests against the pipeline about ten years ago. The suit accused Greenpeace of defamation, trespassing, physical damages to the pipeline and equipment, and overall (and unceasing) harassment that caused expensive delays.........
Europe 
 
European Leaders Are Drafting a Plan to Replace U.S. in NATO - In the ultimate act of seeking to ‘Trump-proof’ the NATO alliance, even well into the future, Europe’s largest military powers are now drawing up plans to keep the alliance strong in case of a US exit from leadership over the next five to ten years. Informal discussions have involved the United Kingdom, France, Germany and the Nordic countries, who are envisioning a managed transfer of power and leadership reshaping the NATO bloc........ (My Take - Wow!  That'll fix us!)
 
NATO and the German straitjacket - Lord Ismay, the first Secretary General of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), reportedly observed that the purpose of the Alliance was to keep the Americans in Europe, the Russians out, and the Germans down. A majority understand what is meant by keeping the Americans in and Russians out, but few grasp the full implications of keeping the Germans down. Lord Ismay was referring to using NATO as a tool for locking Germany into a military and political straitjacket which would impose limitations on the future direction of German foreign and domestic policy.  In the minds of post-WWII policy planners, this goal was as important as keeping the Russians from rolling their tanks across the whole of the Northern European Plain......
 
Emergency Hearing in UK Steps up Legal Fight for Tommy Robinson’s Rights - An emergency hearing on behalf of Tommy Robinson could bring relief to the UK’s high-profile political prisoner. Rebel News boss, Ezra Levant will be in England to cover the case. In a statement published earlier today, Levant said, the Royal Courts of Justice in London, will hear Robinson’s barrister advocate for a judicial review into how he’s being treated.  Robinson (Stephen Lennon) has been held in solitary confinement for 140 days, which is, according to the Rebel News veteran reporter, not just illegal, it’s a kind of torture.  There is no sign Nicola Marfleet, the female governor of the high-security prison, HMP Woodhill, has any intention of stopping the state from squeezing the life out of Robinson..........
 
Europe Goes Full Totalitarian and Puts the Entire Western World at Risk - It’s happening again. Europe is once again going totalitarian and this time there’s a decidedly familiar communist stench. The outcome was predictable for many of us in the alternative media and the situation is only going to get worse in the next few years, but what does this mean for the rest of the world? With the European elites casting off their humanist masks and going outright Orwellian, what kind of chaos can we expect to unfold?  First and foremost I want to point out a key piece of irony here – For decades in the US we heard the tiresome argument that our 2nd Amendment gun rights are meaningless because they are “unnecessary in maintaining our freedoms”. Anti-gun rights activists and politicians commonly used Europe as their sterling example:........

Immigration and Deportation
 
Reclaiming Control of America’s Immigration System - In biology, the membrane defines the boundary of a cell, regulating what enters and exits to ensure the cell’s survival.  Without this boundary, the cell disintegrates.

What to Know About the Alien Enemies Act, a 1798 Law Invoked by Trump - President Donald Trump has issued a proclamation invoking the Alien Enemies Act, a 1798 law providing for deportations of noncitizens during times of war or invasion. The proclamation targets members of the Tren de Aragua (TdA) gang, which Trump links to the socialist regime in Venezuela. Trump declared TdA a foreign terrorist organization in February. The case is in legal limbo after several groups sued the administration.........

History Affirms Trump’s Right to Use the Alien Enemies Act Against Gangs -  Activists claim the move is illegal and unconstitutional, but courts have long upheld presidential power to remove foreign nationals who threaten national security. President Donald Trump on Friday issued a proclamation invoking the Alien Enemies Act to deport members of the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang. Predictably, this move drew the ire of anti-borders activists, who classified it as an attempt to circumvent due process protections for illegal aliens. Critics claimed that the legislation can be used only in times of war, but do they have a legal leg to stand on? For several significant reasons, they do not. ......

Who will stop the judges? March 19, 2025 by Silvio Canto, Jr. -We've been watching federal judges playing President or Commander in Chief. I guess that these judges, coincidentally appointed by President Obama or President Biden, have concluded that Article 2 powers apply to a presidency only if a judge in some blue island agrees with his decision.  Glenn Reynolds asserts that this is not going to end well for the judiciary. Let's check out what he wrote:
 
The Supreme Court Has Long Held That The Alien Enemies Act Gives The President Plenary Power S. David Sultzer, Andrea Widburg - Several days ago, invoking the Alien Enemies Act (“AEA”), President Trump ordered that “250 Tren de Aragua members and 23 MS-13 members wanted for alleged crimes in El Salvador” be deported. The woke left, led by the Soros minions, immediately asked Judge James Boasberg of the US District Court in DC to stop it—and amazingly, he agreed via minimalist “minute orders.” Boasberg ignored Trump’s findings and ordered that the planes carrying the deportees (already en route to El Salvador) return to the US. This grotesquely wrong decision justifies impeachment. The AEA is one of our nation’s oldest statutes, enacted in 1798, 11 years after America’s founding. Many of the same men who drafted the Constitution later drafted and approved the Act. It provides:.............
 
 The Founders Provided Remedies for a Runaway Judiciary - Recently a gaggle of rogue U.S. District Court judges have issued numerous restraining orders and opinions aimed at curtailing, and in some cases overturning, the constitutional authority of President Trump as the head of the executive branch of government. There have been a series of court orders that rival the most egregious judicial decisions in American history, virtually all of which dramatically undermine constitutional separation of powers as well the sovereignty of this nation. What the country is witnessing is the culmination of many decades of ever-expanding judicial activism and the cowardice of the Congress to exert its prerogative to rein in this runaway usurpation of political power..................
 
Fani Willis Is Going to Pay Big for Violating State Law While Prosecuting Trump - Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis just got some more horrible news. A judge has ordered her to pay over $54,000 in attorney’s fees and hand over documents her office held in violation of Georgia’s Open Records Act..........
 
Time For The American Bar Association To End its Democrat Party Bias -   ABA must become the truly professional and therefore apolitical guardian of the legal profession and the justice system. A sacred system which holds that all Americans are created equal by God and entitled to blind and truly fair justice.........
 
'A sham': Clinton judge orders thousands of fired employees to be returned to jobs -  A federal judge on Thursday said the Trump Administration's Office of Personnel Management (OPM) illegally fired thousands of probationary employees. US District Judge William Alsup, a Clinton appointee, ordered the Trump Administration to rehire thousands of fired probationary employees in six federal agencies. The judge blasted the Trump Administration and said he felt "misled by the US Government" as he ordered six federal agencies to offer reinstatement to fired probationary workers.......

Obama-Appointed Judge Orders DOGE to Disclose Plans, Personnel - Obama-appointed Judge Tanya Chutkan ordered that Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) must reveal their plans to downsize government and disclose employees’ identities.  U.S. District Judge Chutkan gave the order after 14 Democrat state attorneys general sued President Donald Trump, Musk, and DOGE, claiming that Musk is unconstitutionally wielding power. Chutkan gave Musk and DOGE three weeks to produce information, which would help her decide if she should block DOGE’s operations........
 
Here’s Where Dozens of Legal Challenges Against the Trump Admin Stand - Dozens of lawsuits have been filed against the Trump administration since day one, challenging everything from the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to executive orders on birthright citizenship and funding for institutions that provide child gender transitions. Several cases involve significant questions of executive power that are likely to be resolved ultimately by the Supreme Court. Some have already reached the justices on an emergency basis, as the administration argued lower court judges blocking aspects of President Donald Trump’s agenda were exceeding their authority..........

BREAKING: Federal Judge BLOCKS Trump from deporting Mahmoud Khalil - A federal judge has just blocked the Trump administration from deporting pro-Hamas activist Mahmoud Khalil, who they arrested over the weekend. Because there’s a challenge to his arrest, the judge says he must remain in the US to “preserve the court’s jurisdiction”. Here’s more from NBC News:...

Middle East
 
Release the video of the October 7 massacre, now -Is there anything more loathsome than watching milk-fed, trust fund, nepo-baby, no common sense, gullible, spoiled, privileged, pampered, preening, $93,417/year tuition and costs, cosplaying, interpretive dancing, vegan, gluten free, nut sensitive, Jew-hating, Jew-harassing, Jew-attacking Ivy League students occupy buildings, assault campus employees, and act out their various neuroses while clashing with police officers? (Here’s the “nut sensitive” context: The Columbia protesters’ makeshift outdoor canteen had readily available sanitizer wipes “with a sign on the bottle urging attendees to ‘keep each other safe and wipe hands after touching NUTS,” along with $12 croissants and a hot sauce stand.).............
 
Trump Promises Houthis ‘Will Be Completely Annihilated’ with or Without Iranian Support - President Donald Trump urged Iran to stop offering financial and political aid to Yemen’s Ansarullah terrorist organization on Wednesday or face the wrath of the U.S. military, predicting that, with or without Iranian help, the Houthis “will be completely annihilated!”.......

Trump’s message shakes the pillars of Khamenei’s regime - On March 17, 2025, Donald Trump issued a significant statement on his Truth Social account. This firm and threatening message explicitly holds Khamenei’s regime accountable for the actions of the Houthis in Yemen, aiming to exert direct pressure on Iran’s leadership. Trump’s statement carries several key aspects.
 
How the Fate of the West is Tied to the Fate of the Jewish Nation - Janet Levy Josh Hammer’s new book, releasing today, is life-changing.   Why is Israel alone forced to justify its existence and questioned when it stands up to those who would annihilate it?  Why was a worldwide campaign of hatred that reeked of anti-Semitism unleashed on Israel when it responded to the October 7, 2023, attack, while there was no criticism of Hamas?  Why has the U.N. censured the Jewish state more times than any other nation, even China, North Korea, and Cuba combined?.......
 
America and Israel Share The Same Enemy - While Democrats keep their eyes firmly focused on imaginary “white supremacy,” a real, dangerous, and very active enemy is lurking.  In his inaugural speech as president, Joe Biden said, “The dream of justice for all will be deferred no longer,” adding that it faced “a rise in political extremism, white supremacy, [and] domestic terrorism...” That might have been the first symptom of his dementia. “White supremacy?” Biden and I are about the same age, and here he seems to have forgotten the 1960s, with its race riots, Freedom Rides, Selma, and new civil rights legislation that truly succeeded in dramatically changing the nation..........
 
Saudi Diplomat: Trump Leading ‘New World Order’ of Peace and Cooperation - President Donald Trump is ushering in a new age of peace, stability and cooperation in the region, according to Hassan bin Youssef Yassin, a senior Saudi diplomat and advisor to King Salman bin Abdulaziz, who expressed strong support for the President’s efforts to create a “new world order” based on coexistence and cooperation, as he urged Arab nations to back his initiative as they did in the past...........
 
Trump just fired a huge warning shot over Iran’s bow If they’re smart, the mullahs will be quaking under their turbans because Trump means what he says. Things may be about to get interesting in the Middle East, and this time, it has nothing to do with Israel. Just a few hours ago, Trump published a warning to the Iranian mullahs that, unless they restrain the Houthis from firing on international shipping in the Red Sea and on American ships, they will pay a price......
 
Three things for the U.S. to understand about the Middle East - There are three things that ordinary Americans need (but often fail) to understand about the Middle East.  These three things are necessary parts of U.S. policy. Team Trump, as well as our European allies, would do well by completely adopting all three. 1. The Iranian Kraken Must Be Defeated. .....2. Muslim “Refugees” Need To Be Sent Home...... 3. Israel Deserves Our Support — And It’s A Bargain...........
 
Institutional Rot -  The major institutions built to serve the people throughout the West have failed badly. Just shy of one year from my arrival in Israel in 1992, I experienced my first Israel Independence Day. I didn’t know then that my job was to nurse a barbecue or go to the beach to watch flyovers of the Israel Air Force (IAF) and El-Al. Instead, I went to the lab.......

Transgenderism
 
‘School Officials Need to Be Prosecuted’: High School Girls Allegedly Forced to Disrobe in Front of Teen Boy- The Trump administration and politically progressive jurisdictions are playing tug-of-war with school districts on gender identity policies such as access to the opposite sex’s intimate facilities and disclosure of gender transition to parents. The American public is also getting its greatest insight into the lives of formerly gender-confused young people, while pop culture finally acknowledges a sexual-arousal condition of unknown frequency among males who identify as girls and women. Illinois’s Deerfield Public Schools District 109 is under the microscope on both sides of the Atlantic after parent Nicole Georgas (pictured above) said Thursday at a school board meeting that administrators and teachers entered the junior high girls’ locker room to force girls to change into their gym clothes after they refused to do so in the presence of a male who identifies as a girl...............
 
Whoopi Goldberg Thinks Those Opposing Men in Women’s Sports “Don’t Know Anything About” Female Anatomy - “The View” co-host Whoopi Goldberg claimed Monday that anyone opposing trans-identifying men from competing in women’s sports fails to understand basic female anatomy. Goldberg told Dylan Mulvaney, a trans-identifying male activist, that those against men competing in women’s sports are ignorant about women’s bodies and just immediately assume that female athletes are weak. Studies have proven that men are biologically stronger and carry more body mass than women, posing an unfair advantage to male athletes and a higher risk of injury for women.....
Trans Rocker Laura Jane Grace Slammed for ‘Pure Evil’ Lyrics at Bernie Sanders Rally: ‘Does Your God Have a Big Fat D*ck’ - Socialist Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders has shocked many for including a transgender punk rocker in his rally who belted out a song containing offensive lyrics that are being blasted as “pure evil.” The Sanders rally which drew about 3,500 attendees occurred in Somers, Wisconsin, on Friday where Sanders — who is working to become the face of Trump resistance — invited punker Laura Jane Grace, the transgender head of the band Against Me!, to perform for the left-wing crowd..........

So-called ‘Gender affirming’ surgery is bad for people’s happiness This was obvious to anyone with common sense, but a large study has confirmed it.  When my kids were growing up, I knew a young man who was charming, funny, sociable, and quite obviously going to be gay. Exactly no one was surprised when, at 13, he came out of the closet. All would have been well if COVID hadn’t hit when he was in college. Isolated and depressed, he signed up for therapy, ending with a therapist who informed him that he was actually a woman. (I’m sure social media algorithms, such as Chinese-run TikTok’s, helped steer him in that direction.)
 
Voter Fraud
 
The Left Says It Doesn’t Happen, but Noncitizens Voted in Iowa’s Election - The media continually say that noncitizens won’t vote in U.S. elections because the penalty is so severe — fines, prison, and potential deportation are enough of a deterrent. But hundreds of noncitizens have not been deterred from registering in Iowa, where Secretary of State Paul Pate this week said audits of Iowa’s voter registration rolls found 277 noncitizens registered to vote or actually voted.   Using data from the federal Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) program, the audit found 35 noncitizens cast ballots that were counted in the 2024 general election and five noncitizens tried to vote but their ballots were rejected, a statement from Pate’s office said. It also offered the following fine detail of what the audit found:.......
 
This 70-year-old woman is serving 9 years in prison - By Joe Fried -  Tina Peters was once the Clerk and Recorder of Mesa County, Colorado, and was in charge of county elections. Now she is serving a nine-year term in a Colorado prison. Her crime? She identified the unauthorized destruction of voter information that took place in two consecutive county elections: the November 2020 election and a local election held in early 2021. In each case, there is irrefutable evidence showing that the election database had been removed and subsequently reinstalled, minus information needed to identify the voter intent of thousands of ballots.

Peters, who is a matronly gold star mother, was concerned after three conservatives lost in a local election, despite the county having far more Republicans than Democrats. Due to a pending software update, the election database would soon be altered. For that reason, Peters asked her IT department to make a backup copy of the database. When they refused, Peters decided to take independent action. That action involved legal infractions that gave Colorado and local officials the excuse they needed to wage despicable lawfare. Here is the background......

New York’s Highest Court Blocks NYC Law Allowing Noncitizens to Vote - The State of New York Court of Appeals ruled that New York City’s law allowing noncitizens to vote violates the state’s constitution. The State of New York appellate court ruled the law unconstitutional in February 2024. The law allows “municipal voters” to vote in NYC elections: mayor, public advocate, comptroller, borough president, and city council member.   The Court agreed with the plaintiffs that the NYC law violated the New York Constitution’s Article II, section 1........
