God forgive me, I was one of the millions

Here's what the new film DOESN'T tell you

Millions of young men once wanted to be Bob Dylan. God forgive me, I was one of them. [SNIP] But the film misses the true importance of the folk superstar Pete Seeger and of Suze Rotolo, though it spends a lot of time on the way they helped the young Dylan to fame. Seeger, later famous for his liberal ‘peace’ songs, had at one time belonged to the tiny, ultra-Stalinist US Communist Party. He wasn’t quite as keen on peace in those days. When most sensible people were very much in favour of fighting the Nazis, in from 1939 to early 1941, Seeger had been a sort of pacifist.

Outrage as ABC7 Chicago broadcasts report

telling illegal migrants how to avoid
ICE capture 4 replies
Social media users are venting their rage over a recent ABC7 Chicago broadcast, where the news outlet interviewed locals who were telling illegal migrants how to avoid being captured by federal authorities. [SNIP] Viewers were quick to express their outrage over the station's decision to broadcast the anti-ICE advisory.
'Imagine if Chicago had an unbiased media that served the interests of the public not the interests of the WOKE Democrats who it carries water for,' one user wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
A top Republican is working to slash government-funded advertising 'propaganda' like mascots, comic books, snuggies and stuffed animals that cost taxpayers nearly $2 billion annually.
Senate DOGE Caucus Chair Joni Ernst, R-Iowa, has reintroduced a measure to restrict federal funds being used for public relations gimmicks.
Her Stop Wasteful Advertising by the Government (SWAG) Act seeks to end unnecessary advertising initiatives on fidget spinners, koozies, clothes and other trinkets.
It is part of Donald Trump and Elon Musk's plan to slash trillions in wasteful spending.
Eighteen Republican state attorneys general led by Ohio’s Dave Yost want the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to review the federal government’s list of countries whose migrants are admitted to the United States under the Temporary Protected Status program.
“This program has been applied too loosely, allowing noncitizens to live here indefinitely, even after it’s safe for them to return home,” said a statement from Yost, who is weighing a run for Ohio governor. “Congress made these designations temporary for a reason – they were never supposed to last 20-plus years.”
Seven-year-old electric vehicle startup Canoo has filed for bankruptcy and will "cease operations immediately." The company is liquidating its assets in a Chapter 7 proceeding in the Delaware Bankruptcy Court. [SNIP] Canoo is the latest EV startup to go bankrupt after merging with a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) as a shortcut to going public. Electric Last Mile Solutions was the first in June 2022. But since then, Fisker, Lordstown Motors, Proterra, Lion Electric, and Arrival all filed for different levels of bankruptcy protection in their various home countries.

President Donald Trump's Department of Government Efficiency is looking into stopping production of the penny to save taxpayers money.
In a post on X Tuesday night, the Elon Musk-run group pointed out that a penny now costs three cents to make - triple its value.
That cost taxpayers a whopping $179 million in fiscal year 2023, the post said.
DOGE has been tasked with coming up with recommendations on how to cut federal spending.
It's unclear if it would advise permanently killing off the penny, or just halting or trimming the penny's production.
Federal immigration agents have started rounding up illegal immigrants in the Denver area, following through on a campaign promise by the Trump Administration to deport migrants who have broken the law, DailyMail.com can exclusively reveal.
Arrests began on Monday, when President Donald Trump took the oath of office, and have spread throughout the state.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, in the Rocky Mountain state has been detaining migrants with pending criminals cases, police sources confirmed.
'ICE agents are doing their job-- the job they should have been doing for the last four years,' former Colorado Immigration Enforcement director John Fabbricatore told DailyMail.com.
Ohio AG joins three other states in lawsuit

to keep certain immigrants out of census counts 4 replies
Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost has joined Ohio with three other states in a federal lawsuit seeking to keep certain immigrants from being counted in the U.S. Census including those in the country illegally and those with temporary visas.
The case was filed in U.S. District Court on Jan. 17 and also includes the attorneys general from Louisiana, West Virginia and Kansas. [SNIP] “Including illegal aliens in the apportionment base is inconsistent with the text of the Fourteenth Amendment because illegal aliens and nonimmigrant aliens are not inhabitants of the states,” the attorneys general stated.
Goodbye catch-and-release, hello catch-and-deport.
Migrants who are caught illegally crossing the US border will no longer be set free in the US while they await their immigration hearings. Instead, they’ll be taken into custody until they can be deported, Homeland Security sources told The Post. Border Patrol agents were given the edict by the Trump administration on President Trump’s first full day in office Tuesday. It represents a seismic shift from the “catch-and-release” open border days of the Biden administration, during which around 8 million illegal immigrants flooded into the country.
Donald Trump quickly made good on his pledge to sever diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies in the federal government as he is set to fire all DEI hires by tomorrow.
The new Trump administration sent a letter to all heads and acting heads of government agencies on Tuesday, informing them all federal employees in DEI roles must be placed on paid leave by 5pm Wednesday.
All DEI offices in federal agencies are also being shuttered in the move, which comes after Trump signed an anti-DEI executive order in front of a cheering crowd at his inauguration on Monday.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams said Joe Biden's shocking response to his demands that the White House do something about the migrant crisis was to 'be a good Democrat, Eric.'
The embattled mayor claimed Biden's reaction to the crisis wreaking havoc on his city was just one of many reasons the Democrat Party 'left me and it left working class people' in an interview with Tucker Carlson.
[SNIP] 'We have Venezuelan gang leaders that were coming to the city creating crimes,' Adams said, which led to his asking Biden for help the condescending answer he received.
Former President Joe Biden, just hours before he left office, issued a flurry of preemptive pardons for his political allies — including retired Gen. Mark Milley, Dr. Anthony Fauci, and members of the J6 Committee — but skipped one for Ukraine impeachment hoaxer Alexander Vindman.
Vindman’s wife, Rachel Vindman, took to Bluesky to whine about being left off the pardon list.
“Whatever happens to my family, know this: No pardons were offered or discussed. I cannot begin to describe the level of betrayal and hurt I feel,” she posted.

Far-left Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) is urging civil disobedience against Donald Trump’s slew of executive orders.
Since taking office on Monday, Trump has signed a slew of executive orders targeting everything from immigration and the border all the way through to ending DEI and dismantling the deep state.
In one of her regular live stream videos in which she lays out the roadmap to a socialist America, the New York Congresswoman urged people to simply ignore or disobey executive orders signed by the president.
She explained:
Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) claimed Thursday on MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports” that President Donald Trump had “legitimized” political violence against Democrats.
When asked about the J6 pardons, Murphy said, “I mean, let’s let’s really talk about who he let out of prison this week, who walked out of prison. The guy walked out of prison this week that pepper sprayed multiple officers to the point where one had a heart attack, he let out of jail this week. People who were beating police officers over the head with poles he let out of jail. Someone who said when he arrived in Washington that day there will be blood.
Former Vice President Kamala Harris is still trying to process her election loss to Donald Trump. And she's seeking counsel from the only source who can vaguely relate to the humiliation — Hillary Clinton.
While the two share the struggle of coming to terms with spectacular defeats in their own rights, it's clear Harris, at least, is still eyeing a political future. Perhaps even the presidency.
On that, there is little surprise. Reports have already surfaced indicating Harris has been actively instructing her advisers and allies to keep her political options open. That includes the possibility of a 2028 presidential run or a bid for the governorship in California in 2026.
It looks like the woke bishop who tried and failed to humiliate President Trump has some explaining to do.
Bishop Marianne Budde made headlines when she went on a gaslighting LGBTQ diatribe at the National Prayer Service on Tuesday.
President Trump and First Lady Melania along with J.D. Vance, wife Usha, and family members were in attendance and graciously stomached the lecture from Budde.
Now it seems, there’s more to the story, according to Townhall columnist and “Minnesota GOP hype man” Dustin Grage.
“This chick was at St. John’s Episcopal Church in Minneapolis for almost two decades,” Grage said on X. “Guess who was in charge of the planning for inauguration? Senator Amy Klobuchar.
As you know, President Trump kept one of his biggest promises: he pardoned all the January 6th political prisoners on day one. That’s the good news. The bad news is that reports suggest that some of these prisoners still haven’t been released, despite the fact that a presidential pardon is absolute and immediate.(snip)Now, more rumors are swirling. This time, we’re hearing unconfirmed reports that DC jail guards—suspected of abusing and beating January 6th prisoners—are in full-blown panic mode. According to the rumors, these terrified guards are worried their actions against J6 American citizens will come to light and force them to face justice.

Karine Jean-Pierre Blames Racism for Her Failures 18 replies
In perhaps the most shocking, least expected twist of the last decade, Karine Jean-Pierre, the first "black, queer, immigrant" to hold the role of White House press secretary, has figured out why she faced so much criticism on the job. You didn't guess it because it's a move that no one could have foreseen, but she's...playing the race card.
Vanity Fair is out with a new profile of Jean-Pierre (written by Jean-Pierre herself) because I guess they think Americans are dying for more information on the worst press secretary in presidential history. In it, she claims she faced unique hardships because of her race, sexual orientation, and immigration history.

first Republican to oppose a Trump Cabinet pick 18 replies
Sen. Lisa Murkowski announced Thursday that she will vote against confirming Pete Hegseth to lead the Pentagon, becoming the first Republican to oppose one of President Donald Trump’s Cabinet picks ahead of a crucial test vote.
Murkowski, of Alaska, said in a lengthy statement that allegations of excessive drinking and aggressive actions toward women, which Hegseth has denied, show that his behaviors “starkly contrast” with what is expected of the U.S. military. She also noted his past statements that women should not fill military combat roles.
“I remain concerned about the message that confirming Mr. Hegseth sends to women currently serving and those aspiring to join,” Murkowski wrote on social media.
Things may not be as rosy behind the scenes as Kamala Harris tried to project while watching President Donald Trump be sworn in on Monday. Sitting next to her husband, the former vice president put on a good face, but according to a new report, Doug Emhoff is now drawing ire.
As RedState reported, Emhoff was at the center of multiple scandals during the ill-fated Harris campaign. Those include him committing adultery and getting his family's nanny pregnant as well as heavily corroborated allegation that he slapped an ex-girlfriend in public while drunk. Notably, Harris refused to address either situation, and Emhoff himself never denied either of them,
Former CIA Director John Brennan whined Tuesday about President Trump pulling security clearances for 51 ex-intelligence officials including him — all of whom claimed in an infamous letter that The Post’s bombshell scoop on Hunter Biden’s laptop emails in 2020 was part of a “Russian information operation.” “He misrepresented the facts in that executive order because it said that we had suggested that the Hunter Biden laptop story was Russian disinformation,” Brennan griped to MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell.
For the first time in history, a male actor has been nominated for the “Best Actress” Oscar for this year’s annual Academy Awards.
“Emilia Pérez” star Karla Sofía Gascón is a man who claims to be a “transgender woman.”
When the Academy Awards committee announced the nominees on Thursday morning, he became the first man in history to be nominated for a women’s Oscar.
Pardoned former Proud Boy leader Enrique Tarrio flew into his home city of Miami Wednesday harboring a message of revenge in his heart for those who had him jailed over the storming of the Capitol.
Tarrio, 40, was emotionally reunited with 60-year-old mother Zuny at the international airport after President Trump made his release along with other January 6 convicts one of his first executive order actions on assuming office.
But after being let out of a medium-security federal prison in Pollock, Louisiana, the far-right activist went on arch conspiracy theorist Alex Jones's Infowars podcast and vowed payback to the January 6 Committee –

New York State has 670,000 residents who are illegal migrants – including 42,300 undocumented restaurant employees and 48,500 undocumented construction workers, an eye-opening report released Thursday said.
The report from the liberal-leaning Fiscal Policy Institute revealed an underground economy of migrant workers in the Empire State, where 1.8 million residents are non-citizens that may also include green card holders.
In total, there are 4.5 million foreign-born residents of the state, the report said. (Photo)
The data in the report — released as President Trump vows a crackdown on illegal immigration — revealed:
