There has been a lot of discussion about who was running the Biden administration against the backdrop of numerous revelations about his cognitive incapacity while in office. However, one key point keeps being overlooked about the DOJ during his tenure.Merrick Garland was not selected to be Joe Biden’s Attorney General because the crew in control of the events wanted Merrick Garland as Attorney General. Garland was removed from his position as DC Circuit Court Justice in order to make room for Ketanji Brown-Jackson to take Garland’s place, get Senate confirmed and then await the resignation of Supreme Court Justice Stephen...

As the west was seemingly spinning off its axis of common sense, it was the relief of a lifetime when Donald Trump prevailed in 2024. Suddenly the world that had been turned on its head was going to be set right again. We were going to have an actual border again. Men weren’t going to be allowed to play in women’s sports. Freedom of speech was going to be a thing again. DEI was going to be fading in the rear-view mirror rather than a roadblock to merit and success. On most of these things the President has been rock...

Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib’s Post: Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib. Writer, Advocate, Analyst - Atlantic Council. Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib @afalkhatib: Please die, it's great for us! In a conversation with a “pro-Palestine” individual that I hope one day soon will be available for the whole world to see, the person said the quiet part out loud: dead & maimed Palestinians in Gaza are excellent content on social media to help delegitimize Israel and make this cause popular. When I pushed back and said that this is just what Sinwar & Hamas wanted and have long promoted, the individual said well, it’s tragic and...

Danon: UN accusation of genocide ‘without evidence’.Israeli Ambassador Danny Danon slammed the U.N.’s chief of humanitarian affairs for making baseless claims about the IDF’s war against Hamas.JNS Staff.(May 17, 2025 / JNS)“To weaponize the word ‘genocide’ against Israel is not just distortion—it is the desecration and subversion of a term with unique force and weight,” the Israeli diplomat said.Those who use the term seek to “demonize” their targets, Danon remarked.On Thursday, Reuters reported that a new U.S.-backed humanitarian group, the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), is set to begin operations in the Gaza Strip by the end of May.The group aims...

There is a high probability that the small battery in your smartphone contains lithium from Chilean deposits, Indonesian nickel, as well as cobalt mined in Congolese mines controlled by the Chinese and employing local children. Critical minerals and rare earth metals have today become the central point of geopolitical rivalry between powers, because whoever controls critical minerals controls the future. "You can't produce clean energy without dirty extractive industry." These words from the director of advanced magnet lab perfectly capture the paradox of our times. On one hand we talk about decarbonization and green transformation' on the other we need...

President Trump went there! Trump posted a video titled, “The Video Hillary Clinton Does Not Want You to See” that documented just some of the mysterious ‘suicides’ linked to the Clinton Crime family. The video touched on the deaths of John F. Kennedy Jr., DNC staffer Seth Rich, Clinton White House Counsel Vince Foster, Clinton White House intern Mary Mahoney, and others connected to the Clintons. In July 1999, Hillary Clinton’s senate rival and front-runner for NY senate seat John F. Kennedy Jr. died in a plane crash. Mary Mahoney was a Clinton White House intern who could have been...

Political commentator Chris Cillizza says "polls showing that only a third of registered Democrats are optimistic about their Party strike me as very problematic. This is especially troublesome compared to polls showing that 55% of Republicans are optimistic about their Party. With most of the media attempting to paint the Republicans as an existential threat to democracy I find it remarkable that its partisans can be so optimistic. Not only are most Democrats lacking optimism, they also use words like liberal, weak, and corrupt to describe how their standard bearers are perceived by the general public." House Minority Leader Rep....

VIDEOPoor Jake Tapper is about to face a BRUTAL week hyping his new book "Original Sin" about the coverup of Joe Biden's mental decline. Too bad for Tapper that he was at the forefront of the media coverup with plenty of video clips to prove it. So what to do? Well, apparently Tapper must have thought that his waaaay too late FACT CHECK in the affirmative of a statement by President Trump that there was a coverup of Biden's mental decline would serve as his shield to protect him from the upcoming attacks on his credibility. FACT CHECK: Won't Work!...

David Hogg is a 25-year-old political activist and, for now, vice chair of the Democratic National Committee. A survivor of the 2018 mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, Hogg first drew national attention for speaking out vigorously in favor of gun control. He has since become an all-purpose progressive campaigner. He is controversial, even among Democratic circles, because he has clashed with the party's establishment. He previously pledged to spend $20 million to primary members of his own party, though he insisted that he would only target Democrats who reside in safe districts. His thinking...

Though a federal grand jury has indicted Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Hannah Dugan for obstructing the apprehension and arrest of illegal immigrant Eduardo Flores-Ruiz by federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) personnel she says she is "confident I will beat the rap because the US Supreme Court has just ruled that judges have a universal right to block the enforcement of laws they don't like." "Trump thinks his election to the presidency is a mandate from the people to enforce the nation's immigration laws," Dugan said. "But I don't. Presidents come and go and are term limited. Judges are...
