FAUX now airing Cabinet Meeting.
Nobody likes a bad picture or painting of themselves, but the one in Colorado, in the State Capitol, put up by the Governor, along with all other Presidents, was purposefully distorted to a level that even I, perhaps, have never seen before. The artist also did President Obama, and he looks wonderful, but the one on me is truly the worst. She must have lost her talent as she got older. In any event, I would much prefer not having a picture than having this one, but many people from Colorado have called and written to complain. In fact, they are actually angry about it! I am speaking on their behalf to the Radical Left Governor, Jared Polis, who is extremely weak on Crime, in particular with respect to Tren de Aragua, which practically took over Aurora (Donât worry, we saved it!), to take it down. Jared should be ashamed of himself!
Hee hee ... I wonder who this “artist” is.
Name and shame...internet, do your thing! đ
Here's her 0bammy pic ... I don't think it does him any justice ... looks like his dad, Frank (Marshall Davis) ....
And, looky, here at her portrait of W ... I just think she lacks talent ... he looks like a cross between Teddy R and FDR ...
I think you are right, Jane.
Sarah needs to stick to landscapes.
Would like to get navymom’s opinion of her work.
Since âJudgeâ Reyes is now a top military planner, she/they can report to Fort Benning at 0600 to instruct our Army Rangers on how to execute High Value Target RaidsâŠafter that, Commander Reyes can dispatch to Fort Bragg to train our Green Berets on counterinsurgency warfare. https://t.co/CNrl252Irsâ Pete Hegseth (@PeteHegseth) March 22, 2025

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump
It is with great pleasure that I am announcing Alina Habba, Esq., who is currently serving as Counselor to the President, and has represented me for a long time, will be our interim U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey, her Home State, effective immediately!
Alina will lead with the same diligence and conviction that has defined her career, and she will fight tirelessly to secure a Legal System that is both âFair and Justâ for the wonderful people of New Jersey.
Additionally, John Giordano, who has done a terrific job as the interim U.S. Attorney in New Jersey, will now be nominated as the new Ambassador to Namibia!
Congratulations to Alina and John!
US Treasury Sec Bessent: On April 2nd, we are going to produce a list of other countries' tariffs, and we are going to go to them and say, here's where we think the tariff levels are, non-tariff barriers, currency manipulation...

LOLOLOL!! Too sad, but funny and true.
NO MORE WIKIPEDIA FOR ME! đ đ đ
Wikipedia trashes Hegseth, Patel, Gabbard, censors their pages after Trump nominations: report
EXCERPT:
Four years ago, Wikipedia co-founder Larry Sanger launched a competing service called Encylosphere, on the grounds that the crowdsourced encyclopedia he created with Jimmy Wales had been so captured by the political left that its entry on socialism “completely ignores any conservative, libertarian, or critical treatment of the subject.”
While Sanger’s identity recently changed from “skeptical philosopher” to Christian, Wikipedia’s identity remains the same as ever, according to a longtime conservative critic’s review of its edits to pages for President Trump’s appointees after their nominations.
The Media Research Center’s report on ideologically suggestive makeovers to pages for Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, FBI Director Kash Patel, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and Office of Management and Budget Director Russell Vought found that Wikipedia editors piled on the dirt and, for Hegseth, stripped out the accomplishments
Wikipedia created “entirely new negative sections,” revamped their “Personal Life” sections, changed “the characterization of incidents described” and beefed up “existing coverage of controversial material/events,” the report states.
By contrast, editors greenlit 116 edits to the recession page, “apparently to avoid embarrassing the Biden-Harris administration with clear evidence of their Bidenomics disaster,” and “allowed consultants connected to Hunter Biden” to alter his page, MRC claims.
The nonprofit Wikimedia Foundation, which runs Wikipedia, did not answer queries for its response to MRC’s report and explanation of the edits’ propriety.

The News of Today is the History of Tomorrow
NOTE: Today is my last day with Stanley. He goes to the vet for his appointment with the Rainbow Bridge tomorrow. He’s in pain much of the time with bad arthritis, cannot walk but a couple of steps without falling over, is partially blind and has doggie dementia. He has been a pain in the neck on the one hand and my best friend on the other. We used to walk miles together. One time he climbed up into our olive tree and tore it to shreds, convinced something was in there. When we moved from Ohio, where we had a patio deck with a giant green yard, he used to shoot out the door and leap into the yard. We forgot he didn’t know we had a pool at the new Arizona house and was he surprised! Lova ya, Stan. You’ll always be my doggie.
IN POLITICAL NEWS
1) I love this. The White House canceled security clearances for a whole gaggle of douchenipples, including Cankles, Liz Cheney, Alvin Bragg, Cackles, Veeta Vita Vindman, and the whole Rutabaga family. Trump also rescinded an executive order against the law firm of Paul Weiss after the lawyers offered $40 million in free legal services for everyone, including conservatives. I’d make it contingent upon court wins, jail releases, or reductions of sentence.
2) For now an appeals court has reinstated 25,000 federal probationary employees. As I said in my substack last week, stall, stall, stall. The longer they are unemployed, the less likely they will ever get their jobs back. If the positions must be filled, MAGA people are available. Then see if the judge still wans those jobs filled.
3) DOJ has a criminal investigation into the leaker of the Venezuelan gang info to the New York Slimes.
4) President Trump cut funding to seven Australian universities, leading to the obvious question, why are we funding any foreign university?
5) There is strong support for Elon Musk and DOGE cuts to the federal gubment.
6) No, President Trump is not sharing ChiCom war plans with Musk.
7) Rutabaga’s DOE secretary, Jennifer Granholm, hid a study that showed LNG was good for the planet.
8) About that big AOC Dinobernie rally? First it was provable by cell phone data that it was 1/3 smaller than claimed, but more important, 84% of those who attended had already gone to other Dinobernie/pro-Hamas/Black Looters Matter rallies. Astroturfed all the way.
9) A Soros-backed couple of chadpumper dicknipples are funding the attack on Teslas. And they should be in jail. In Sudan.
10) Who has been saying this? It is now estimated that the data demand for power (AI) will triple in the next three years, accounting for 12% of all US, energy. This is Civil War #3 for the DemoKKKrats, as they will have a fight between the techhies and the greens. Solar and wind ain’t gonna do it. Try nukes.
11) Kash Patel plans to cut up to 1,000 ATF agents. No tears here.
12) Shipwreckedcrew argues that Trump has chosen more extreme “negotiating” positions with the judges, in which he will likely win, but it will be a longer process than if he had run with less ambitious objectives.
IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS
13) Trump is working to revoke legal status and work permits for hundreds of thousands of migrants that Rutabaga illegally flew in.
14) Porky Pritzker’s Illinois budget is fighting out the DemoKKKrat Civil War #2 namely having to cut bennies for illegals.
15) DHS has revoked the legal status of 538,000 people.
IN CULTURAL NEWS
16) Columbia University, which is swimming in endowment money, will nevertheless institute a raft of measures designed to eliminate DEI and keep the federal spigot turned on. Dartmouth too. This led Politico to say universities were “caving to Trump with “stunning speed and scope.” What Politico won’t admit is that the glutenous institutions all have massive endowments, but are still terrified of losing federal money. A Columbia friend says half its revenue is the feds.
IN ECONOMIC NEWS
17) The U.S. has licensed a new deepwater liquified natural gas port complex.
18) Trade-ins of Teslas have reached new highs as people are afraid of being harassed, attacked, or have their vehicles terrorized. As David Blackmon notes, the company is indeed under siege, but still stands atop the EV heap, especially if ChiCom EVs are kept out.
19) Trump’s tariffs cause another U.S. automaker to return to the U.S..
IN INTERNATIONAL NEWS
20 The United Arab Emirates has committed to investing $1.6 trillion in the U.S. in the next 10 years. By my count, Trump has gotten foreign and domestic pledges of nearly $10 trillion in investment so far.
21) A peer-reviewed AI report on “climate change” shows little role played by humans and a lot played by the sun, and find claims by the Michael Manns of the world overhyped.
22) Venezuela has reached a deal with the U.S. to resume deportation flights.
23) Iceland’s Minister of Children quit after admitting to having a baby with a 16-year old.
24) Big companies are purging references to net-zero and re-writing their websites as this insanity finally ends.
25) It must just be something in the Huns’ character, as the German intel chief says the Uke War should go on another five years.
IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS
26) Boxer George Foreman died at age 76. Nice guy.
27) Kudos to Lizzo, who has lost over 60 pounds (she says) without Ozempic. She actually is an attractive woman but still has another 60 to go-—then there is the loose skin problem. But still, good job.
IN CHINA VIRUS NEWS
28) A North Carolina Supreme Court decision opens the door for parents to sue schools and health officials for the China Virus vax side effects and intrusions into civil liberty.
AND FINALLY . . .
29) Since we opened with Stanley, my doggie, I guess it’s appropriate to finish with this story: “Dogs who Shot their Owners.” Stan never did that to me. He knows where the safety is. By the way, if you want a good, hearwarming dog movie (and book), “The Art of Racing in the Rain” will do it.
đMust give props and kudos to Steve Bannon for even alerting us about a Cabinet Meeting today!!!

Preventing Abuses of the Legal System and the Federal Court
MEMORANDUM FOR THE ATTORNEY GENERAL
THE SECRETARY OF HOMELAND SECURITY
SUBJECT: Preventing Abuses of the Legal System and the Federal Court
Lawyers and law firms that engage in actions that violate the laws of the United States or rules governing attorney conduct must be efficiently and effectively held accountable. Accountability is especially important when misconduct by lawyers and law firms threatens our national security, homeland security, public safety, or election integrity.
Recent examples of grossly unethical misconduct are far too common. For instance, in 2016, Marc Elias, founder and chair of Elias Law Group LLP, was deeply involved in the creation of a false âdossierâ by a foreign national designed to provide a fraudulent basis for Federal law enforcement to investigate a Presidential candidate in order to alter the outcome of the Presidential election. Elias also intentionally sought to conceal the role of his client â failed Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton â in the dossier.
The immigration system â where rampant fraud and meritless claims have supplanted the constitutional and lawful bases upon which the President exercises core powers under Article II of the United States Constitution â is likewise replete with examples of unscrupulous behavior by attorneys and law firms. For instance, the immigration bar, and powerful Big Law pro bono practices, frequently coach clients to conceal their past or lie about their circumstances when asserting their asylum claims, all in an attempt to circumvent immigration policies enacted to protect our national security and deceive the immigration authorities and courts into granting them undeserved relief. Gathering the necessary information to refute these fraudulent claims imposes an enormous burden on the Federal Government. And this fraud in turn undermines the integrity of our immigration laws and the legal profession more broadly â to say nothing of the undeniable, tragic consequences of the resulting mass illegal immigration, whether in terms of heinous crimes against innocent victims like Laken Riley, Jocelyn Nungaray, or Rachel Morin, or the enormous drain on taxpayer resources intended for Americans.
Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11 prohibits attorneys from engaging in certain unethical conduct in Federal courts. Attorneys must not present legal filings âfor improper purpose[s],â including âto harass, cause unnecessary delay, or needlessly increase the cost of litigation.â FRCP 11(b)(1). Attorneys must ensure that legal arguments are âwarranted by existing law or by a nonfrivolous argument for extending, modifying, or reversing existing law or for establishing new law.â FRCP 11(b)(2). And attorneys must ensure that their statements about facts are âreasonably basedâ on evidentiary support, or a belief that such evidence actually exists. FRCP 11(b)(3)-(b)(4). When these commands are violated, opposing parties are authorized to file a motion for sanctions. FRCP 11(c). The text of the rule specifically addresses and provides for sanctions for attorneys and their firms as well as for recalcitrant parties given the solemn obligation that attorneys have to respect the rule of law and uphold our Nationâs legal system with integrity. Furthermore, Rule 3.1 of the Model Rules of Professional Conduct provides that, âA lawyer shall not bring or defend a proceeding, or assert or controvert an issue therein, unless there is a basis in law and fact for doing so that is not frivolous, which includes a good faith argument for an extension, modification or reversal of existing law.â
Unfortunately, far too many attorneys and law firms have long ignored these requirements when litigating against the Federal Government or in pursuing baseless partisan attacks. To address these concerns, I hereby direct the Attorney General to seek sanctions against attorneys and law firms who engage in frivolous, unreasonable, and vexatious litigation against the United States or in matters before executive departments and agencies of the United States.
I further direct the Attorney General and the Secretary of Homeland Security to prioritize enforcement of their respective regulations governing attorney conduct and discipline. See, e.g., 8 C.F.R. 292.1 et seq.; 8 C.F.R. 1003.101 et seq.; 8 C.F.R. 1292.19.
I further direct the Attorney General to take all appropriate action to refer for disciplinary action any attorney whose conduct in Federal court or before any component of the Federal Government appears to violate professional conduct rules, including rules governing meritorious claims and contentions, and particularly in cases that implicate national security, homeland security, public safety, or election integrity. In complying with this directive, the Attorney General shall consider the ethical duties that law partners have when supervising junior attorneys, including imputing the ethical misconduct of junior attorneys to partners or the law firm when appropriate.
I further direct that, when the Attorney General determines that conduct by an attorney or law firm in litigation against the Federal Government warrants seeking sanctions or other disciplinary action, the Attorney General shall, in consultation with any relevant senior executive official, recommend to the President, through the Assistant to the President for Domestic Policy, additional steps that may be taken, including reassessment of security clearances held by the attorney or termination of any Federal contract for which the relevant attorney or law firm has been hired to perform services.
I further direct the Attorney General, in consultation with any relevant senior executive official, to review conduct by attorneys or their law firms in litigation against the Federal Government over the last 8 years. If the Attorney General identifies misconduct that may warrant additional action, such as filing frivolous litigation or engaging in fraudulent practices, the Attorney General is directed to recommend to the President, through the Assistant to the President for Domestic Policy, additional steps that may be taken, including reassessment of security clearances held by the attorney, termination of any contract for which the relevant attorney or law firm has been hired to perform services, or any other appropriate actions.
Law firms and individual attorneys have a great power, and obligation, to serve the rule of law, justice, and order. The Attorney General, alongside the Counsel to the President, shall report to the President periodically on improvements by firms to capture this hopeful vision.
>>>Yesterday, Real Clear Politics published a similar Memorandum from Our POTUS. I caught this one on Newsmax
