Incensed that he isn't getting obedience from President Trump regarding his several orders related to the deportation of more than 200 members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua, Federal District Court Judge James Boasberg pointed out "my term of office is for life. Mr. Trump's is only for four years. I can easily outlast him. If he doesn't comply with my orders I can hold him in contempt. I can fine him. I can order him held in jail until he complies. He can't win this battle with me." US Attorney General Pam Bondi pointed out that "Judge Boasberg's...

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) let one rip—verbally—during a speech in Colorado on Friday, and the internet isn’t letting her live it down.While alongside Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) for their “Fighting Oligarchy: Where We Go From Here” tour, AOC attempted to rally the crowd by saying, “We need a Democratic Party that fights harder for us.”Instead, she blurted out, “We need a Democratic Party that farts harder for us.”

Excuse me if this is not something that should be posted but by chance since I am curious. Does anyone know of how to apply for positions in the Trump administration. Kind of curious on how one could contribute if so inclined.

DNC chair Ken Martin railed against GOP at church town hall billed as a discussion about Medicaid A Pennsylvania priest admonished an audience of Democratic Party leaders at a town hall at his church on Thursday, saying he was misled about an event billed as a discussion about Medicaid that turned into a Democratic "stump speech." DNC chairman Ken Martin, Rep. Jamie Raskin (D., Md.), and other Democrats appeared at a "People's Town Hall" event held at the Episcopal Cathedral Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem, Pa., located in the district of freshman Republican Rep. Ryan Mackenzie. Though the event...

Former Clinton pollster Mark Penn said Friday on Fox News that crucial voter groups are fleeing the Democratic Party. The Democratic Party’s favorability rating plummeted to a new low of 29%, according to a CNN/SSRS poll conducted from March 6-9. During an appearance on “Hannity,” Penn said he was shocked at the current state of the Democratic Party and said he’s never seen its rating this low in decades. “I’ve never seen anything like this in over 40 years of polling. The Democratic Party ratings have collapsed from a 47% favorable down to 29, 27 in some of these polls,...

Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) recently exposed a scandal revealing federal employees stealing millions of taxpayer dollars to purchase luxury cars, jewelry, and vacations. The story broke on The Daily Wire on March 19, 2025, and reveals more than a decade of corruption from the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service (FMCS), originally established to mediate disputes between unions and businesses, eventually devolved into a haven of unchecked extravagance and nepotism. Investigations into FMCS corruption date back to the early 2010s during the Obama administration; despite disclosures of lawlessness, significant action never happened due to political inaction and a...

The U.S. Agency for International Development coordinated closely with a State Department program to block what it considered “misinformation,” “disinformation,” and “malinformation,” according to newly released government documents. America First Legal, a conservative legal group, obtained more than 200 pages from the State Department through a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit about the Global Engagement Center, or GEC. The documents also show the controversial Global Engagement Center—which a congressional report concluded was federally-funded censorship—has cooperated with private journalism organizations. During the COVID-19 pandemic, spanning the last year of the first Trump administration and early years of the Biden administration, the...

A George Soros-backed activist group has called on Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer to step down from leading the party in the chamber. Schumer has been facing backlash from his own coalition for allowing the advance of a Republican bill to fund the federal government, including from Indivisible, an activist network that has taken over $7.6 million from Soros’ Open Society Foundation since 2017. The co-executive director of Indivisible, Ezra Levin, said that Schumer was leading “the charge to wave the white flag of surrender.” “The passage of this dangerous Republican funding bill is a travesty. The ongoing administrative coup...

Liberal TV host Bill Maher is reportedly going to visit the White House to meet President Trump. This is kind of amazing. Maher has had Trump Derangement Syndrome for years, although, to his credit, he has been a little bit better in recent months than he was during Trump’s first term. The big meeting is apparently being arranged by Kid Rock, who is a Trump supporter and has repeatedly appeared on Maher’s show. Who knows? This could end up turning Maher around. President Trump has a great record of changing people’s minds when they get a chance to meet him...

A federal judge on Thursday barred DOGE from accessing social security systems. US District Judge Ellen Hollander, an Obama appointee, said DOGE’s workers are on a “fishing expedition.” “The DOGE Team is essentially engaged in a fishing expedition at SSA, in search of a fraud epidemic, based on little more than suspicion. It has launched a search for the proverbial needle in the haystack, without any concrete knowledge that the needle is actually in the haystack,” Judge Hollander wrote. Far-left organizations like AFL-CIO, the American Federation of Teachers and other plaintiffs sued the Social Security Administration, Elon Musk, DOGE and...

Sen. Bernie Sanders and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has embarked on a multi-state tour in what appears to be the most recent and organized effort to unify the Democratic Party against the Trump administration. Ocasio-Cortez, a New York Democrat, and Sanders, a Vermont Independent and former Democratic presidential candidate, stopped in Nevada on Thursday and will be in Colorado and Arizona on Friday. The tour is part of Sanders’ “Fighting Oligarchy: What's Next” tour, in which the senator essentially argues the U.S. is headed toward an Oligarchy government as President Trump continues to fill his cabinet and other top-level posts with...

In Teen Vogue’s special issue cover story, the estranged 20-year-old daughter of Elon Musk talks about the “cartoonishly evil” Trump administration and being a young trans woman today. In many ways, Vivian Jenna Wilson is a lot like any other 20-year-old girl. The Los Angeles native spends hours a day on Discord with her friends; loves reading, RuPaul’s Drag Race, and Chappell Roan; and she runs late — two full hours late, to be specific, for our scheduled Zoom meeting. Also like many 20-year-olds, she has a complicated relationship with her father. But not everybody’s dad is the richest man...

Article II, Section 2, Clause 1: The President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States, when called into the actual Service of the United States; he may require the Opinion, in writing, of the principal Officer in each of the executive Departments, upon any Subject relating to the Duties of their respective Offices, and he shall have Power to grant Reprieves and Pardons for Offences against the United States, except in Cases of Impeachment.

The newly declassified JFK file revealed that former CIA counterintelligence chief James Angleton testified under oath in an executive session before the Church Committee in 1975 about deep intelligence ties between the United States and Israel. The testimony, given in a top-secret executive session, was part of the Senate Select Committee’s broader investigation into intelligence operations. Though much of the session was focused on Cold War espionage and Soviet defections, one line of questioning zeroed in on allegations that U.S. intelligence may have assisted Israel’s covert nuclear program. Angleton, who served from the agency’s founding until late 1974, confirmed a...

So, according to this must-read thread below: The Peace Institute, a sinister US government agency that was just raided by DOGE and the FBI, was in cahoots with radical activists who have instigated recent campus uprisings. Anarchist protest toolkits “created and used” by “Beautiful Trouble” and cohorts including Lisa Fithian, “a lifelong advocate for violent protests, abolishing the police, dismantling the state [and who] guided Columbia University students to break into its building” were shared on USIP’s website as models for “change” and “peace.”

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced in Helsinki that Russia must surrender all territory it gained since 2014. Of course, this is an impossible request. Russia is winning the war, and it has no desire to relinquish control of Crimea or the Russian-speaking provinces it now controls. Two months ago, the Trump White House knew that peace would not be possible as long as Zelensky was in charge. The man does not want peace. Catturd has it right, and the Trump administration knew this weeks ago—no peace in Ukraine until Zelensky is gone. It’s clear now that President Trump feels more...

As previously reported, DOGE official Jeremy Lewin took a senior leadership position at USAID as a radical judge ruled Elon Musk and DOGE likely violated the US Constitution when it shut down the agency. On Tuesday Theodore Chuang, an Obama appointee, ordered Elon Musk and DOGE to reinstate all of USAID’s functionality. The lawsuit was brought by current and former USAID workers. Judge Chuang said DOGE’s decision to shut down USAID violated the Constitution’s Appointments Clause and the Separation of Powers. The plaintiffs argued that Elon Musk is operating with unchecked power since he is not Senate-confirmed — and that...
