Colbert, Buttigieg Worry About 'The Soul
of our Nation' After Trump Speech
Posted By: Imright, 3/5/2025 12:47:11 PM
CBS’s Stephen Colbert stayed up for a live show on what turned out to be Wednesday morning after President Donald Trump’s address to Congress. Colbert spent his monologue praising Rep. Al Green for getting kicked out of the House chamber and attacking Trump on everything from transgender issues to shipbuilding. Later, he would welcome former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg to wonder, “Where is the soul of our nation headed?” Democrats have long used Trump’s speeches as a chance to engage in eye-roll-inducing theatrics, but Colbert was a big fan of Green,

On Wednesday, Rep. Melanie Stansbury (D-NM) provided yet another example of her desire to score cheap political points through childish stunts rather than focusing on America’s safety.
During a House Oversight Committee hearing on sanctuary cities, Stansbury launched a profanity-filled tired rather than asking poignant questions of the failed Mayors of sanctuary cities testifying before the committee.
According to Stansbury, President Trump’s efforts to remove child rapists, murderers, and other violent illegals from our streets is “absolute bulls***.”
We've been covering how extremely anti-Trump Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) has been, especially recently, throwing out all sorts of accusations about President Donald Trump. Just when it seems she couldn't go any further, she comes up with a worse comment. Democrats' performative tricks weren't merely limited to the outbursts in the chamber on Tuesday night when Trump gave a speech before a joint session of Congress. Crockett did her own event, "24-Hour State of the People Marathon," meant to counter Trump's speech. It was then that she made some rather noteworthy remarks about Trump, immigration, and black people.
On Tuesday, President Trump gave his first major speech to a joint session of Congress, and it was a big deal. One thing in particular, though, had ears perking up all across the Great Land - you could almost hear them. That thing was the president's announcement of an intended natural gas pipeline, from the North Slope to the Kenai Peninsula town of Nikiski.
And it will be a huge, beautiful pipeline:
“My administration is working on a gigantic natural gas pipeline in Alaska, among the largest in the world, where Japan, South Korea and other nations want to be
The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has cancelled the lease for the Obama Presidential Library in Chicago, according to reports.
DOGE included the library, which is currently in Chicago’s Hoffman Estates, in its extensive list of federal lease terminations. However, the library was already scheduled to closed and move to a new location, so the termination of the lease may not have any meaningful or major impacts.
According to Fox News:
The DOGE website did not provide a timetable for the closures, although a NARA spokesperson told Fox News Digital the Hoffman Estates library was scheduled to close in late Fiscal Year (FY) 2025 and move to College Park
You love to see it.
President Trump on Thursday stripped security clearances of the employees at DNC law firm Perkins Coie.
Recall that Hillary Clinton and the DNC paid law firm Perkins Coie more than $1 million to hire oppo research firm Fusion GPS to peddle the bogus ‘Trump-Russia’ dossier during the 2016 election.
Former British spy Christopher Steele compiled over a dozen memos alleging the Russians had blackmail on Trump and that his associates were conspiring with the Kremlin to win the 2016 election.
The busy moon season continues unabated, as the second US spacecraft will attempt to land on the moon in less than a week.
The privately built robotic lander, Athena, was developed by Intuitive Machines. It was launched on Feb. 26 and has been approaching the moon for the past week.
Space.com reported:
“At roughly the size of a dishwasher, the six-legged craft aims to touch down at a site in the moon’s south polar region, then spend a week looking for the possible presence of water ice below the lunar surface.
The more we look back on the shenanigans of the now-thankfully-departed Biden administration, the more it seems like the Energizer Bunny on crack: It just keeps getting dumber, and dumber, and dumber.Case in point: In the name of "green energy," the Biden administration shoveled $3 billion in taxpayer money as a "loan" into a solar panel company called Sunnova Energy. Now that company is going bankrupt - and that's not even the worst part.
Sunnova Energy said on Monday that its current finances are "not sufficient to meet obligations and fund operations for a period of at least one year from the date we issue

Cairo—The Hamas militant group on Thursday brushed off President Donald Trump’s latest threat and reiterated that it will only free the remaining Israeli hostages in exchange for a lasting ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.
Hamas accused Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of trying to back out of the ceasefire agreement they reached in January. The agreement calls for negotiations over a second phase in which the hostages would be released in exchange for more Palestinian prisoners, a permanent ceasefire and an Israeli withdrawal from Gaza.
Hamas spokesman Abdel-Latif al-Qanoua said the “best path to free the remaining Israeli hostages” is through negotiations on that phase, which were supposed to begin

President Donald Trump's speech to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday night was one for the ages. The day after, many political pundits commented that they believed this was Trump's best speech and one of the best political speeches ever given. Democrats attempted to smear Trump's address with a vast array of childish and petty shenanigans. When those didn't work, all semblance of any humanity collectively escaped them as many of Trump's guests were introduced and their stories told. For all of their virtue signaling by wearing pink, yellow and blue, or black, Donald Trump made Democrats reveal who they really are.
On March 4, 2025, President Donald J. Trump stood before a fractious Congress and a watching nation to deliver not just a speech, but a historic call: America’s renewal is at hand. His 99-minute address to the Joint Session — a marathon of ambition and unapologetic nationalism — marked the bold opening salvo of a second term that promises to reshape the Republic. For conservatives, this was a manifesto of reclaimed sovereignty, a rejection of globalist malaise, and a blueprint for a civilization poised to reclaim its dynamism. Yet as the dust settles, we must weigh this vision’s brilliance against its burdens, for the path to greatness
A CNN fact-check of President Trump’s speech to a Joint Session of Congress on Tuesday, claiming that the President made up a finding that $8 million was spent to give mice transgender treatments, has been retracted after the White House provided proof of the claim.
The dishonest fact-checkers got caught lying again.
President Trump, while delivering his Joint Address to Congress on Tuesday, outlined some examples of waste fraud and abuse discovered by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), including “$8 million for making mice transgender.”
“We found hundreds of billions of dollars of fraud,
FIVE Reasons to Defund 'Public' Broadcasting
12 replies
Now that Republicans have control of Congress and the White House and Trump’s “government efficiency” czars are looking hard at slicing the funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB), it bears repeating: “public broadcasting” is not serving the public. It serves a narrow slice of America, an audience of wealthy liberal elites.
A recent survey of NPR listeners found only 11 percent described themselves as very or somewhat conservative, 21 percent as middle of the road, and 67 percent of listeners said they were very or somewhat liberal. Those people should pay for all of it.

On Wednesday morning, in a 5-4 emergency decision, the Supreme Court upheld a decision from U.S. District Judge Amir Ali that essentially says that Donald Trump can't withhold $2 billion in USAID money from existing contractors. Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Amy Coney Barrett sided with the three liberal members of the court. Justices Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas, Neil Gorsuch, and Brett Kavanaugh voted in favor of Trump, with Justice Alito writing the lengthy dissent that begins with: Does a single district-court judge who likely lacks jurisdiction have the unchecked power to compel the Government of the United States to pay out (and probably lose forever) 2 billion taxpayer
Crying poor.
Hunter Biden has asked a federal judge to drop the laptop hacking lawsuit he slapped against a former Trump White House aide — because he’s “millions of dollars” in debt, “exacerbated” by losing a home in the Los Angeles wildfires, court filings show.
The embattled former first son, 55, blamed the recent fires, as well as dwindling sales from his artwork and memoir, for him being plagued by “significant debt” keeping him from “litigating this case” against Garrett Ziegler, according to a motion filed in federal court in California on Wednesday.
During Donald Trump's big speech on Tuesday night, the Democrats proved more than ever that they hate this country and do not wish to see it succeed. They refused to clap for common sense things like lowering taxes and removing dangerous criminals from the streets. Even worse, they failed to applaud for everyone from the mothers of young girls who were brutally murdered to foster dads and foster children. But one of the most disgusting moments of the evening came when they refused to acknowledge a young boy with brain cancer for something that was about as far from partisan as you can get.
Billionaire Elon Musk polled users of his social media platform X about how they want to approach ending daylight saving time (DST). Musk asked..., "If daylight savings [sic] time is canceled, do you prefer" an hour earlier or an hour later. [Snip] Moving to DST permanently or remaining on standard time permanently would require an act of Congress, even as 18 states have enacted laws that would provide for permanent DST if Congress allows such a change, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. [Snip] The American Academy of Sleep Medicine issued a recommendation in 2020 that the U.S. transition to a year-round fixed time,
Former Georgia Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams said Wednesday on CNN’s “News Central” that President Donald Trump is a “petty tyrant’ surrounded by “complicit flunkies.”
Abrams said, “I have a podcast called ‘Assembly Required’ and we have been having this conversation for the last six weeks and we have to do all of the above. We have to call out Donald Trump on his lies. We have to point out that an unelected oligarch is doing his best to steal America from its people in Elon Musk.”
She added, “We have a complicit Congress that is allowing him to fire thousands of people
Actress Mia Farrow just dropped a new theory about the survivability of Democracy in America. This time saying she’ll be surprised if we make it to Labor Day.
“If we have 6 months of democracy left i’ll be surprised,” actress Mia Farrow said in Bluesky, adding “Im guessing 3-4 months – unless we do something.” [BlSky]
What that “something” is, Farrow didn’t explain to her 200,000 followers.
Farrow’s wild theory came just as President Donald Trump was delivering his primetime address to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday.
She also revealed new nicknames for the president and took shots at the Republicans cheering him on during his speech.
If you watched Trump’s speech to a joint session of Congress Tuesday evening, you know that Democrats behaved like children, and Rep. Al Green (D-Texas) was so disruptive that House Speaker Mike Johnson had him forcibly removed from the chamber.
Speaking to reporters after the incident, Green doubled down on his disruptive behavior and, of course, defended his childish actions.
“The president said he had a mandate, and I was making it clear to the president that he has no mandate to cut Medicaid,” Green said. “I have people who are very fearful. These are poor people, and they have only Medicaid in their lives
The Biden presidency might have been the greatest con job ever perpetrated on the American people. A shocking investigation by the Heritage Foundation's Oversight Project has revealed that virtually every document bearing Joe Biden's signature during his presidency was signed by an autopen — except for one.
What makes this revelation particularly damning is that the only document confirmed to have Biden's actual signature was his letter announcing his withdrawal from the 2024 presidential race. Let that sink in for a moment.
Remember when House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) revealed his discussion with Biden when Biden couldn't recall signing the executive order halting LNG exports?

During the final months of the Biden administration, the National Institutes of Health awarded $28 million to a mysterious venture-backed company called Vaccine Company Inc., a biomedical firm founded in 2022 whose chief financial officer happens to be one of former president Joe Biden’s top COVID advisers.
To Sen. Joni Ernst (R., Iowa), the September 2024 grant from the NIH’s Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health doesn’t pass the smell test. Vaccine Company has left virtually no public footprint showing what it has done with the taxpayer funds, which the Biden administration doled out to a seemingly random post office box in Bethesda, Maryland. Ernst urged Health and Human Services

As a lifelong Democrat, I never imagined I would watch my own party embarrass itself so thoroughly — and so publicly — as it did during Tuesday’s joint session of Congress.
From obnoxious booing to childish protest signs to a sitting member of Congress having to be physically removed from the chamber, Democrats turned what should have been a solemn, dignified event into a bad reality show.
And for what? To go viral on TikTok? To book a slot on MSNBC to brag about their “resistance”?
Nothing was more disgraceful than when my colleagues refused to stand or clap when 13-year-old DJ Daniel, a brain-cancer survivor, was made an honorary Secret Service agent.
