The Department of Justice is probing Elon Musk’s rocket company SpaceX over whether the company discriminates against non-U.S. citizens in its hiring, according to court documents filed on Thursday. The Justice Department’s Immigrant and Employee Rights division received a complaint of employment discrimination from a non-U.S. citizen, who alleged that SpaceX discriminated against him based on his citizenship status.
The Republican Party will invite former President Donald Trump to address its Spring meeting, which also serves as a gathering for high-dollar donors and potential 2024 presidential candidates. The meeting, hosted by the Republican National Committee, will be held in Palm Beach, Fla., April 9-11, Politico reported.Trump is camped out at his Mar-a-Lago residency as he plots his post-presidency moves and prepares his defense in his upcoming impeachment trial. He has yet to make a public appearance since he left the White House on January 20th but he has made trips from his Palm Beach club to his Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach.
University of Wisconsin-Madison's police chief has banned officers from using "Thin Blue Line" imagery while on duty. Chief Kristen Roman informed officers of the ban in a Jan. 15 email that was made public this week. The department faced criticism in November over a photo posted to its Twitter account that showed a "Thin Blue Line" flag displayed at the police department's office. The "Thin Blue Line" flag, which resembles an American flag but has a blue stripe, is a sign of support for law enforcement but has also come to signal opposition to the racial justice movement and a
Former FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmith was sentenced to probation on Friday for altering an email about former Trump aide Carter Page’s relationship with the CIA.District Court Judge James Boasberg ordered Clinesmith to receive 12 months of probation and perform 400 hours of community service, a sentence far more lenient than the three to six months in prison sought by John Durham, the U.S. Attorney for Connecticut.
Clinesmith, who was an assistant general counsel in the FBI’s cyber law branch, pleaded guilty on Aug. 19, 2020 to altering a June 2017 email he received from a CIA employee regarding Page.
On Tuesday, six days into Joe Biden’s administration, it became clear why Susan Rice, hitherto a foreign-policy specialist, was named director of the Domestic Policy Council. Rice — unconfirmable for a Cabinet post after her unembarrassed Sunday-show lying about the Benghazi terrorist attack — ventured into the White House press room to preview Biden’s “equity” initiative.With one possible exception, the specific policies announced were less important than the word “equity,” invoked 19 times by Rice and nine by Biden. Ending federal private prison contracts and combating “xenophobia” against Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders are small potatoes
A pair of lawmakers from Ohio want to set aside a day to honor former President Trump.The proposal from two Republican state legislators would make June 14 every year President Donald Trump Day in the Buckeye State, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer.Representatives Jon Cross and Reggie Stoltzfus made the request to their fellow lawmakers via an email on Friday, asking them to co-sponsor a bill “to celebrate one of the greatest presidents in American history.”“Let’s show the 3,154,834 Ohio voters who cast their ballot to re-elect Donald J.

New York City this week said it will join a growing list of U.S. cities banning natural gas hookups in new buildings. New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said on Thursday as part of his State of the City address that New York will "ban new fossil fuel connections in new construction by at least 2030." That follows moves to ban new hookups by several cities in California, including Berkeley and San Francisco, and in the U.S. Northeast as part of a local movement away from fossil fuels and toward cleaner forms of energy to stop global warming.
“Who cares [where they died]? They died!” That’s how New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo callously responded Friday to questions about a damning state attorney general report that revealed how his administration withheld the total number of nursing home residents who died of COVID-19. During his first remarks on the spiraling controversy, Cuomo claimed, “If you look at New York state, we have a lower percentage of deaths in nursing homes than other states.”(Snip) Cuomo repeatedly tried to blame officials from the administration of former President Donald Trump, specifically citing former Department of Health and Human Services spokesman Michael Caputo,
The Black Lives Matter movement has been nominated for the 2021 Nobel peace prize for the way its call for systemic change has spread around the world.
In his nomination papers, the Norwegian MP Petter Eide said the movement had forced countries outside the US to grapple with racism within their own societies. “I find that one of the key challenges we have seen in America, but also in Europe and Asia, is the kind of increasing conflict based on inequality,” Eide said. “Black Lives Matter has become a very important worldwide movement to fight racial injustice. “They have had a tremendous achievement

Journalists generally assess our politics through the same lens as Democratic operatives, which assumes Democrats are the good guys and Republicans are not. For some in the corporate media, that’s not so much a conscious partisan calculation as it is the consequence of their shared cultural leftism.This is a key driving force behind our national discord. A better lens generally assumes politicians are the bad guys, whether they’re friendly to the press, progressive, Christian, rich, poor, or whatever. That’s not only more accurate, it’s more fair and more constructive for the so-called fourth estate, which exists to hold powerful people accountable on a nonpartisan basis. When journalists

Former Trump campaign pollster John McLaughlin said that the effort to cancel former President Donald Trump is backfiring and will likely embolden the former president’s voter bases.
“It’s backfiring,” John McLaughlin told Newsmax on Thursday. “What they’re doing on impeachment, people see it is unfair, unconstitutional, going against the president.”
McLaughlin said that Americans are more concerned with the CCP virus and other issues.
The effort to convict Trump in an impeachment trial suffered a grave setback after 45 Republican senators voted against holding the trial, meaning that it’s unlikely there will be enough votes to convict the former president.
The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency said Thursday that it has paused publication of a final rule that would require banks to do business with companies such as oil drillers and gun manufacturers that they might otherwise choose to avoid because of perceived reputational risk.

Rep. Lauren Boebert, Colorado Republican, mocked school shooting survivor David Hogg on social media Thursday, sparking condemnation and fresh calls from her removal from Congress. Mr. Hogg, a survivor of the deadly 2017 mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, started the Twitter spat in a posting he made on the platform earlier Thursday evening. Reacting to reports about new fencing being considered around the U.S. Capitol, Mr. Hogg said the proposed security measure would not stop “the real threats” posed by some Republicans remaining in office.(Snip) “Give your keyboard a rest, child,” Ms. Bobert, 34, replied to Mr. Hogg, 20.
The would-be pipe bomber of the Democratic and Republican National Committees’ headquarters planted the devices at the Washington, DC, buildings the night before the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, the FBI said Friday.
In a wanted flyer, the FBI said it obtained new information about the bomber, writing the agency now believes the would-be terrorist planted the bombs between 7:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. on Jan. 5. The bombs were found the following day before they detonated, but law enforcement authorities have said they believe the bombs were viable—and could have exploded at the downtown buildings.

Earlier, in October, 2020, Bridges, a convert to Islam, came into contact with an FBI online covert employee (OCE) posing as a Muslim supporter of and in contact with the Islamic State. In their communiques, Bridges made clear that his allegiance was to Islam and jihad, not America and its soldiers.
Small investors outsmarted the smart money, and the war between the Reddit traders and hedge funds seems to have made an indelible mark on Wall Street. Big investors or hedge funds, who hold short positions in individual stocks, saw some of these positions come under siege from a large cohort of small investors, many of whom use a Reddit forum. The idea of a short is that the holder of the position makes money if the stock price goes down, but if it goes higher, investors have to buy the stock themselves, and all that activity can make the price

Growing evidence of advance planning and coordination of the Jan. 6 storming of the Capitol undermines claims that the rioters were responding spontaneously to former President Trump's speech to supporters about a mile and a half away, according to legal and intelligence experts.
As Senate Democrats mull their options for convicting or censuring Trump and banning him from future public office for allegedly inciting insurrection, experts said their incitement case against him was dealt a severe blow this week when federal prosecutors charged three men in the Capitol attack, alleging their communication and coordination dated back to November.
The last remaining nuclear-arms treaty between the U.S. and Russia is on track for a five-year extension. President Joe Biden and Russian President Vladimir Putin agreed to extend so-called New START in their first exchange since Biden took office on Jan. 20.

He wasn’t alone, as policy makers across the political spectrum have called for improvements.(Snip)The text of the treaty gives Biden, as president, the authority to extend the treaty without seeking approval from Congress. Putin needed approval from Russia’s parliament, which he received on Jan. 27.

Kevin Clinesmith, who admitted altering an email so the government could continue to wiretap campaign adviser Carter Page, received far less than the prison sentence the government had recommended. Clinesmith was also sentenced to 400 hours of community service. Special counsel John Durham sought six months in prison for Clinesmith, saying he acted out of “political or personal bias” against former President Trump. Defense attorneys had asked to spare Clinesmith from prison,

A watchdog group called out House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for a very profitable Tesla stock deal shortly before the Biden administration released plans to make the federal automobile fleet electric. Last month, Paul Pelosi, a wealthy venture capitalist and husband of the California Democrat, bought up to $1 million of Tesla stock when the price was roughly $640.34 a share. The price had shot up to $838 a share by Thursday on the NASDAQ exchange.(Snip)

ODESSA, Texas - The top elected official of the largest U.S. oil and gas producing state on Thursday pledged to fight President Joe Biden’s executive orders that he claimed would undercut Texas energy production.
In a case of dueling executive orders, Texas Governor Greg Abbott authorized state agencies to bring legal challenges Biden’s policies. Biden on Wednesday unveiled a series of actions to combat climate change, including pausing new oil and gas leases on federal land and cutting fossil fuel subsidies.
“When it comes to threats to your jobs, you have a governor who has your back,” he told workers at an oilfield service firm where he signed his order.

Here’s former Republican Majority Leader McConnell on the floor of the Senate proclaiming, “The mob was fed lies. They were provoked by the president and other powerful people.” And then comes Republican House leader Kevin McCarthy on the House floor: “The president bears responsibility for Wednesday’s attack on Congress by mob rioters.” Then he suggested censure of Trump instead of a second impeachment. The Democrats never turn on their own. For decades they praised as “the lion of the Senate” a drunk who abandoned a young woman to drown at the bottom of a pond.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s use of inciteful rhetoric shows no signs of abatement, as the California Democrat who previously referred to then-President Donald Trump as a “domestic enemy” called Republican lawmakers the “enemy within.” The reason for this egregious slander is because some GOP lawmakers want to carry a firearm — see Second Amendment.Continuing to exploit the storming of the U.S. Capitol earlier this month with extreme hyperbole — it wasn’t an attempt to overthrow government — for maximum political value, Democrats are working hard to demonize and dehumanize the GOP.“I do believe, and I have said this all along, that we will probably need a
President Joe Biden’s allies inside and outside the administration are hitting back at The New York Times over a Wednesday editorial calling on him to work with Congress.The Times editorial board knocked Biden for pushing his agenda through dozens of executive actions in the days following his inauguration rather than wheeling and dealing with lawmakers in Congress. The Times pointed out that everything Biden does solely through executive authority can be undone by the next person to sit in the Oval Office.The editorial board, in a piece titled “Ease Up on the Executive Actions, Joe,” writes:
Johnson & Johnson's Covid-19 single-shot vaccine was shown to be 66% effective in preventing moderate and severe disease in a global Phase 3 trial, but 85% efficacy against severe disease, the company announced Friday.
The vaccine was 72% effective against moderate and severe disease in the US, the company said.
It's a striking difference from vaccines from Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna, and it may give pause to people uncertain about which vaccine to get or when they can get one. The vaccines already on the market in the US are about 95% effective overall against symptomatic Covid-19, with perhaps even higher efficacy against severe cases.
EL PASO, Texas -- Former El Paso Democratic congressman Beto O'Rourke said in a radio interview that he is contemplating a run for governor of Texas next year against Republican incumbent Greg Abbott.

President Biden wasted no time releasing a flurry of executive orders and legislative proposals. Some of them may be helpful in addressing the economic challenges imposed by the coronavirus pandemic. But others would almost certainly “cancel” his effort to create jobs, grow the economy and promote equity.
Canceling jobs: the minimum wage increase. In his pandemic relief proposal, Biden is pushing a $15/hour federal minimum wage, more than twice the current rate of $7.25.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, of the 80.4 million U.S. workers who were paid on an hourly basis in 2017, 542,000 – generally younger and low-skilled workers –
In the flurry of President Joe Biden’s executive orders was one that was almost entirely overlooked but could easily end up having the biggest impact.
The order also seems harmless enough, going by the seemingly innocent title “Modernizing Regulatory Review.” Except this order isn’t about modernizing regulations. It’s about unleashing the regulatory state with a ferocity never before seen in this country.
Biden’s order – which didn’t get released to the press until late in the evening of his first day – aims to effectively toss the cost-benefit analysis that for many decades has served as at least a modest brake on

Two Democrat lawmakers introduced a bill on Thursday, dubbed the “Vote at Home Act,” to expand “Oregon-style” mail-in voting nationwide, contending that the move is necessary to “make real progress” in the country.The bill, introduced by Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR) and Rep. Earl Blumenauer (D-OR), is designed to “fight voter suppression” as detailed by Wyden’s press release. The measure would “massively expand vote-at-home ballot access, provide voters with pre-paid ballot envelopes and enact automatic voter registration.”The lawmakers point to the unprecedented number of Americans who voted by mail in the 2020 presidential election — a move Democrats vehemently pushed.

Of all the executive orders that newly elected Joe Biden swiftly enacted, nothing is more indicative of his anti-American animus and radical left-wing influence than his revoking Trump's "1776 Commission" to promote "patriotic education." The 1776 Commission to Create a Patriotic History Curriculum is in direct contrast to the "1619 Project," which reflects a decidedly anti-American, factually incorrect, and blatantly biased program currently being pushed through the U.S. education system.The mission of the 1776 Commission is "to defend the legacy of America's founding, the virtue of America's heroes, and the nobility of the American character." But the left continues the mendacious onslaught of falsehoods about America.
