I caught a @jacksonhewitt employee coaching illegals on how they could get up to $14,000 in tax refunds whether they’re “working or not” Perhaps figuring out who is receiving tax refunds is the next thing @elonmusk should look into 👀pic.twitter.com/1SMhP0DKZE— Savanah Hernandez (@sav_says_) March 29, 2025

EXCLUSIVE: A top DOGE leader in the Senate is trying to reel in a massive federal grant from a nonprofit focused on promoting fishing, boating and outdoors that she alleges is being used to pad executive salaries, a characterization the organization rejected. Sen. Joni Ernst, R-Iowa, and her colleagues have been scouring federal grants for appearances of waste, fraud or abuse of taxpayer funds, and came upon a $27 million grant to the Recreational Boating and Fishing Foundation (RBFF). More than $26 million of the grant had been paid out, and long-term figures showed RBFF received $164 million in funding...

U.S. President Donald Trump has once again kicked up a storm with his pursuit of Greenland [...] But Washington was interested in acquiring Greenland to mitigate threats emanating from the Arctic long before Trump came along, even offering Denmark $100 million in gold for the icy island shortly after the conclusion of World War II. That interest has only expanded in recent years as Russia and China step up their military and commercial activities in the Arctic, conduct joint military exercises, and invest in new weapon systems like hypersonic missiles. “Greenland is growing in importance as we find ourselves in...

"That's what I'm talking about. Bring that resistance!"That was self-described Republican Michael Steele on Saturday's edition of MSNBC's The Weekend, urging far-left Dem Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal to resist Donald Trump. Steele and Jayapal each claimed that they have very different views on many issues, but are united in resisting the predations of Orange Man Bad. But when's the last time anyone heard Steele forcefully express his supposedly still-Republican views on the show? His positions have been indistinguishable from those of his highly-partisan Dem co-hosts, Alicia Menendez and Symone Sanders. Speaking of the latter, Sanders repeatedly waved her handkerchief [see screencap]...

Everytown for Gun Safety is also trying to swing the Wisconsin Supreme Court race. The radical anti-gun rights group is spending $600,000 on an advertisement targeting former attorney general and Wisconsin Supreme Court candidate Brad Schimel—a staunch defender of the Second Amendment. Guess who backs them? Mega donor Michael Bloomberg. WI, please, I need you to go out and vote. We cannot afford to lose two house seats.

Cognitive dissonance is when a person grapples with unreconcilable ideas. Sometimes, it forces reality on the person; sometimes, they get more delusional. One of the virtues of being a mentally healthy person in an honest society is that you don’t have to deal with cognitive dissonance. That is, there are no moments when you are forced to accept two entirely conflicting facts or values. Instead, you have the mental freedom to work through the conflict and come out with an honest evaluation. When people lack that honesty and liberty, the only refuge is delusions and heartfelt lies to themselves. That...

“Liberal bias” or “Democrat bias” are deeply inadequate to describe the attitude among members of the mainstream media. The 'About Us' section on the Associated Press (AP) website declares the following: "Since 1846, we have been breaking news and covering the world’s biggest stories, always committed to the highest standards of accurate, unbiased journalism. We were founded as an independent news cooperative whose members are U.S. newspapers and broadcasters, steadfast in our mission to inform the world. To this day, AP remains independent, beholden only to the facts. "From delivering the news via pony express in 1846 to working with...

* * * A key component of the Trump plan to restore the separation of powers away from the deep state has been the creation of DOGE. If you haven’t yet seen it, here’s the remarkable video of Bret Baier’s interview of Musk and members of his team who are sacrificing so much to reduce federal waste and fraud and update archaic computer and accounting schemes which have made it near impossible for cabinet members and the president to see where the money allocated has been going and why. We have been living , it seems, in a make-believe world...

Lionel Racing, NASCAR’s die-cast collectible car licensee, is implementing a surcharge to its customers related to the U.S.’s recently implemented tariffs on China, an example of the policy trickling down to impact the sports industry. ... On Thursday, the company sent out notes to both retail customers as well as its wholesale business partners about implementing a new tariff surcharge as a result of the new 20% tariffs on all imports from China, which is the toy industry’s largest manufacturing hub in the world.

- Aims to counter a perceived decade-long effort to rewrite U.S. history with a distorted, ideology-driven narrative that portrays America’s founding and achievements negatively. - Seeks to restore a unified, positive historical narrative emphasizing liberty, individual rights, and progress, rejecting claims of inherent racism or oppression. - Directs the Vice President, via his role on the Smithsonian Board of Regents, to remove "improper ideology" from Smithsonian exhibits, museums, and related facilities. - Tasks the Vice President and the Office of Management and Budget to work with Congress to ensure Smithsonian funding prohibits exhibits that degrade American values or promote divisive...

Ukrainian officials and military analysts have warned that Russian forces are preparing a fresh offensive in the coming weeks, aiming to intensify pressure on Ukraine and strengthen Moscow's position in potential ceasefire negotiations. The anticipated push could lead Russian President Vladimir Putin to delay peace talks in favour of pursuing further territorial gains, Ukrainian officials said. They reiterated long-standing claims that Russia has no genuine interest in meaningful negotiations to end the war. As the spring fighting season approaches, analysts and military commanders report that the Kremlin is planning a multi-front assault across the 1,000-kilometre frontline. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy,...

Mexico City (AFP) – US President Donald Trump’s anti-woke and anti-migrant policies have convinced hordes of Americans to either move to, or stay put in, neighbouring Mexico. Americans have long been lured to Mexico by its weather, culture and lower cost of living. Now some of the US citizens heading south of the border say they have another reason: President Donald Trump. Discrimination, the erosion of civil rights, government cutbacks, polarising rhetoric and Trump's war on "woke" are among the motivations these new expats give for not wanting to live in the United States. Four Americans told AFP about why...

As Beth Brelje recently reported in The Federalist, Five of the fifteen judges sitting on the U.S. District Court of the District of Columbia were born outside the United States. All five of those foreign-born judges somehow managed to get selected to rule on controversial Trump cases. All five of those five judges had zero experience as a judge before being appointed to one of the most influential courts in the land. The recently infamous James Boasberg, chief judge of the D.C. District Court, is one of the 15 principal judges on that court. There are an additional 10 older,...

While numerous federal district court judges have issued ill-conceived restraining orders against the administration, I have long believed that it will prevail in its efforts to place control of the state in the hands of the elected executive, away from the deep state bureaucracy and its black-robed judicial allies. As the litigation of these matters proceeds, I think my belief will be justified. We will return to a constitutional republican form of government. For a day-to-day look at the progress of these multiple cases, I urge you to go to X and follow Professor Margot Cleveland who is (bless her)...

The declining U.S. birth rate, and the broader demographic shifts it contributes towards, have become a growing concern for policymakers and economists alike. Economic and demographic experts told Newsweek that the trend is one that threatens to destabilize not only the U.S. economy—potentially resulting in several percentage points being knocked off America's annual GDP growth—but global markets as well. "I think it's the single most important issue facing economies across the world, and by some distance," said James Pomeroy, a global economist at HSBC. As is the case with almost every country on earth, U.S. birth rates have been trending...
