IN POLITICAL NEWS 1) Unable to come to a settlement with the nutjobs running Iran,https://www.theepochtimes.com/world/ President Trump imposed a blockade on the Strait of Hormuz. Remember, this hurts us ZERO, but really hurts the Euros and the ChiCom. Check out this report of a massive fleet of empty oil tankers heading for the U.S. to pick up oil. https://x.com/MarioNawfal/status/2042747418073034790 Right before shutting it down entirely, Trump ordered the U.S. Navy to clear mines in the Strait. https://blackmon.substack.com/p/hormuz-update-us-navy-clearing-mines It seems the Iranians actually forgot where they put the mines. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/10/us/politics/iran-mines-strait.html What's good for the goose . . . anyone remember when...

That’s the thing about the corporate media… There is no lie they will not invent and then gleefully spread if it damages Donald Trump. To them, the ends justify the means. To them, if the means further the cause — whether it’s lying about the pope or advocating for gender-affirming child mutilation — they see the means as moral because the authoritarian progressive cause is moral.

🚨 ABC, CBS & NBC: Total Blackout Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (D-FL) just got hit with 25 ethics violations by the House Ethics Committee. She’s accused of stealing $5 million in FEMA disaster relief funds — money meant for hurricane & COVID victims — then laundering it through her campaign and spending on personal luxuries like a diamond ring. She faces up to 53 years in prison. George Santos got wall-to-wall coverage for weeks. This Democrat? Zero seconds on ABC, CBS, or NBC evening news. NewsBusters confirmed the total media blackout. The media isn’t biased. They’re complicit. #MediaBias #TwoTieredJustice #CherfilusMcCormick

CNN staffers are freaking out after learning that their left-leaning network’s owner Warner Bros. Discovery will be acquired by Paramount Skydance — even as insiders confirmed that the new owners plan to take a more politically centrist approach to news, The Post has learned. Top talent and low-level producers alike are apoplectic that CNN is being acquired by Paramount Skydance, the media giant that scooped up CBS last year – and which subsequently tapped 41-year-old newshound Bari Weiss to root out liberal bias at the network. Now, CNN staffers are so panicked that the network’s president Mark Thompson was forced...
