They don’t call it censorship anymore. They call it protection. Protection for communities. Protection for organizations. Protection from “threats.” The language is softer now, more strategic, designed to pass scrutiny without triggering it. But behind California’s AB 2624, the intent is harder to ignore: if you document the wrong thing, in the wrong place, involving the wrong people, the state may decide you shouldn’t be allowed to show it at all. And this time, they’re not going after institutions. They’re going after the individuals who don’t need one. In Sacramento, that effort now has a bill number. AB 2624. According...

DNI Tulsi Gabbard Exposes Conspiracy Used By Congress To Impeach President Trump IC Inspector General Atkinson aggressively advanced a so-called “whistleblower’s” narrative, using a witness who co-authored the 2017 Russia Hoax, that was used as the basis for Trump’s impeachment WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard releases never-before-seen documents exposing a coordinated effort by elements within the Intelligence Community (IC), including a former Inspector General (IG), to manufacture a conspiracy that was used as the basis to impeach President Trump in 2019. During his preliminary investigation into President Trump’s July 2019 phone conversation with Ukrainian President...

It’s been a long six and a half years since the first sham impeachment of Trump, but the story isn’t over. rom the beginning, the 2019 impeachment coup against President Donald Trump was a hoax riddled with Democrat collusion and deep state deception. Newly released transcripts of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence’s closed-door interviews of then-Inspector General of the Intelligence Community (ICIG) Michael Atkinson give even more details about how intelligence officials and anti-Trump politicians worked together in an attempt to charge the sitting president with abuse of power and obstruction of Congress. The testimonies, recorded in September...

Gavin Newsom is lying about Israel to curry favor with extremists in Minneapolis, Dearborn, and New York City. And that is just one Democrat, there are many more. "Gavin Newsom bets antisemitism is the Democratic Party’s future" from the New York Post sums up the entire theme of this article. "Gavin Newsom endorsed the lie Tuesday that Israel is an 'apartheid' state — a damning sign of where the Democratic Party is headed, and how far it’s already sunk." If Newsom doesn't know that Christian and Muslim Israeli citizens can vote and be elected to the Knesset, and that Israel's...

Gov. Ron DeSantis signed legislation Monday allowing him to identify and label domestic terrorist organizations — and he said state police were already building cases against several of them. At a news conference at the University of South Florida, he said police were “working already” to apply the label to the Muslim civil rights organization Council on American-Islamic Relations, or CAIR, and the Muslim Brotherhood, an international Islamist movement…. HB 1471, passed by the Legislature last month, allows the Florida Department of Law Enforcement to identify groups as “domestic terrorists,” powers that are typically reserved for the federal government. Groups...

Democratic Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger claimed she helped bring thousands of jobs to her state — even though the companies she listed all invested in Virginia when her Republican predecessor was still in office. The governor took a victory lap Monday for a package of four bipartisan bills she signed that day, with both an X post from her government account and a news release from her office claiming the legislation brought about 3,250 new jobs and $7.1 billion in investment to her state. Reporter Nick Minock of Washington-based ABC affiliate WJLA, however, noted in a Wednesday morning X post...

RealRobert@Real_RobN·7hHere it is:King Solomon on with Captain Kirk:A senior intelligence officer with 30 years of experience confirms that the psychological operations and information warfare the intelligence community uses overseas against foreign enemies were used on American soil in an attempt to overthrow the United States government in 2016.@jsolomonReports:“I sat across from an intelligence agent — now retired, very senior. He looked me in the eye and said, ‘The truth of the matter is, we took the playbook for psychological operations and information warfare that we would use against our enemies and turned it against the American people in an attempt...

Published in the April 3 edition of the Santa Fe New Mexican. Below text from NMOGA website I grew up in Carlsbad. I went away for college, but I came back as quickly as I could. Coming home was always the goal, and I’m proud to be back. I love this state. I love its people, its landscape and its stubborn independence. The oil and gas industry I represent is made up of people just like me: New Mexicans who were born here, who raised families here, who chose to build their lives and livelihoods here. So, I’ll confess that...

The Defund the Police movement lives on in the LA City Council, only now it flies under the banner of democratic control. The council’s most left-wing members seek to transfer crime-fighting authority from law enforcement experts to the council and the city controller. These would-be police overlords might want to familiarize themselves with the agency that they aspire to run. They would learn that the LAPD sets a national standard of professionalism and restraint. According to The California Post, council members Hugo Soto-Martinez, Eunisses Hernandez, and Nithya Raman want the power to override the LAPD police chief and the civilian...

The Trump administration scored a court win on Friday as a judge ruled the administration can fast-track immigration cases. Immigration advocates sued the Trump administration last month, arguing that the asylum process should take “years” to conclude and that lawyers want “at least a year” to prepare for court hearings while applicants remain in the United States, The Daily Signal previously reported. However, U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols of the District of Columbia, a Trump appointee, said in his opinion that immigration law is clear on the timing of cases. “Immigration judges are directed to resolve cases ‘in a timely...

When intrepid young journalist Nick Shirley made his way to Minneapolis’s now notorious “Quality Learing Center,” he found not just a local scam, but also a too perfect metaphor for today’s Democratic Party. Operating behind the false front of a legitimate political party, Democrats have fashioned nothing more than a money laundering operation that exploits the anxieties of its base to empower and enrich its friends and allies. Although the seeds were planted long ago, those seeds have borne their dark fruit thanks to at least three helpful federal interventions and a major shift in newsroom zeitgeist. Exploiting migrants,...

Maine’s Secretary of State Shenna Bellows is actually running for governor on her willingness to take flagrantly unconstitutional action. Bellows is touting her removal of Trump from the ballot, an effort that led to a unanimous Supreme Court swatting down Colorado and Maine. Bellows is virtually giddy recounting her efforts to stymie democracy and prevent voters from casting their ballots for the man who ultimately won the election. Democrats have been running this year on the pledges to launch a virtual roundup of Trump officials and supporters for investigations and impeachments. New York congressional candidate George Conway is pledging to...

A vile nurse who was fired after she went on an unhinged antisemitic rant in Times Square once traveled to Iran and bashed the US as the “most criminal, evil entity on the planet.” Clad in a headscarf, Jennifer Koonings rambled about New York City’s potholes while praising the “beauty” of Iran in the July 17, 2025 clip posted to the X account of the Sobh Festival, which is organized by the Iranian state media. Koonings, 35, made the trip nearly a month after the United States bombed Iranian nuclear sites in Isfahan and Fordow. The nurse went on to...

BREAKING - Melissa Halverson, the leftist Michigan woman who made a video celebrating the possible capture and death of a downed US airman at the hands of Iran, has been fired from her position as an administrative assistant at Green Apple Pantry.

St. Paul, MINN. – From Times Square to here in Minnesota's state capital, communist and socialist activists at the nationwide "No Kings" protests escalated their anti-America campaign and openly called for a nationwide economic strike on May 1, an international communist holiday known as May Day, as key Democratic activists joined their call. At the rally here in St. Paul, organizers, speakers and activists distributed communist literature, waved flags from socialist governments and revolutionary movements, and urged demonstrators to transform the day's protests into a nationwide shutdown of work, school and commerce. By early Sunday, Press TV, the propaganda arm...

It appears that so many "elites" are making statements and publishing their financial moves (Bershire Hathaway admitting they're sittingon 400 billion in cash) in an effort to get retail customers (general public) to sell share or move their 401k accounts to cash (sell out) in order to get the market to crash. They have probably already shorted most everything and are hoping to make big bucks on the selloff. It doesn't look like it's working. So many financial pundits are screaming we're going to have a crash that the roar is deafining. However, the markets are still holding up and...

Democratic strategist James Carville got blunt about why the Democratic Party remains unpopular on Monday, telling MS NOW host Ari Melber it was because they haven't won elections. Melber noted polling published this month by CNN/SSRS that found just 28% of Americans have a favorable view of the Democratic Party, compared to 32% who have a favorable view of the Republican Party. Melber asked Carville whether this was troubling as the party looks to take back Congress in November. "No," Carville responded. "The reason that people don't like the Democratic Party is the same reason I don't like it right...

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump A big day for World Peace! Iran wants it to happen, they’ve had enough! Likewise, so has everyone else! The United States of America will be helping with the traffic buildup in the Strait of Hormuz. There will be lots of positive action! Big money will be made. Iran can start the reconstruction process. We’ll be loading up with supplies of all kinds, and just “hangin’ around” in order to make sure that everything goes well. I feel confident that it will. Just like we are experiencing in the U.S., this could be the Golden Age...

Dozens of congressional Democrats are demanding that Republicans remove President Donald Trump for his latest threat against Iran, but one lawmaker says the idea isn’t "realistic." Several congressional Democrats want to invoke the 25th Amendment, a decades-old addition to the Constitution that empowers a president’s Cabinet to remove him from office if he is unable to do the job. Some Democrats are arguing that Trump’s latest threat against Iran on Truth Social — where he declared that a "whole civilization will die tonight" unless his demands to reopen the Strait of Hormuz are met — is proof that he has...

RICHMOND, VA — Virginia's Democratic Governor Abigail Spanberger on Tuesday ignored questions on whether she would entertain calls from the Department of Homeland Security to end sanctuary policies in the state. "Governor Spanberger must end her sanctuary policies that allow these illegal aliens onto our streets and work with DHS to protect the citizens of the commonwealth," the agency said in a post to social media. Virginia — and in particular Fairfax County — has made headlines in recent weeks for a string of deadly attacks carried out by illegal aliens. Earlier this month, authorities charged 28-year-old Guatemala native Misael...
