The Department of Justice (DOJ) reportedly opened a criminal investigation Wednesday into New York City hotels operating as migrant shelters, focusing on their funding and management, according to multiple outlets. A copy of a federal subpoena obtained by The New York Times and the New York Post, sent to Manhattan’s Hotel Chandler, reportedly shows prosecutors requesting testimony and evidence related to the migrant shelter program concerning an unspecified “alleged violation” of federal immigration law. Prosecutors also requested a full list of migrants currently residing at the hotel, including their nationality, dates of birth and identification numbers, according to the Times.

Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley on Friday sent a letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel, revealing that the bureau allegedly obtained the cellphones of President Donald Trump and his former Vice President Mike Pence.

protected whistleblower disclosures from Grassley and Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations Chairman Ron Johnson, and was part of the FBI's Arctic
Frost investigation.
“Sunshine is the best disinfectant,” the chairmen wrote to Bondi and Patel. “The American people deserve to know the complete extent of the corruption within the DOJ and FBI that led to the investigation into President Trump.

Democratic Party rising star Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, argued that Americans need illegal immigrants because they do the work that the college-educated in this country won't do.
Crockett reportedly made the comments while speaking at the South by Southwest (SXSW) festival on March 8.
In a video clip that went viral on Friday, Crockett made the point that Americans don't send their kids to college in the hope that they'll end up picking crops and cleaning hotel rooms, but that's what illegal immigrants do.
"How many of you are sending your kids t
to college?" Crockett asked the crowd.
The Trump administration has ejected South African Ambassador Ebrahim Rasool out of the country, declaring him persona non grata after he gave a lecture claiming that President Donald Trump is a white supremacist leader.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced Rasool’s expulsion via X on Friday afternoon.
Rubio linked to a Breitbart News article that reported on a lecture Rasool had given Friday morning to a South African think tank, in which he had claimed that Trump was leading a global white supremacist movement.
President Donald Trump’s campaign to end diversity, equity and inclusion programs nationwide is now targeting more than 50 universities for alleged racial discrimination.
According to a news release from the U.S. Education Department, the investigations come one month after the agency issued a memo warning America’s schools and colleges that they could lose federal money over "race-based preferences" in admissions, scholarships or any aspect of student life.
Trump and other critics of DEI programs say they exclude white and Asian American students.
Republican Florida Sens. Rick Scott and Ashley Mood introduced a bill on Friday proposing the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) headquarters, currently in Washington, be moved to Florida.
Titled Consolidating Aerospace Programs Efficiently at Canaveral (CAPE Canaveral) Act, the legislation would relocate the NASA headquarters to Florida’s Space Coast in Brevard County. The region houses the Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.
Scott’s office called Florida “a common sense choice” for the new headquarters.
“There’s no better place for NASA’s headquarters than Florida’s Space Coast, where our nation’s brightest minds innovate and help America reach for the stars,” Scott said in a statement.
Several House Democrats have privately called on Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) to launch a primary challenge against Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer after he backed a Republican-led funding bill to avert a government shutdown.
Even centrist Democrats are outraged by Schumer’s decision, with some "so mad" that they are "ready to write checks for AOC for Senate," according to a Democratic lawmaker who spoke with Ocasio-Cortez at House Democrats’ annual policy retreat Thursday evening, CNN reported.
The Navy is offering sailors and U.S. Marines who identify as transgender voluntary honorable discharges in order to comply with new restrictions on gender identity, according to a memo released on Thursday.
The memo, issued by Acting Navy Secretary Terence Emmert, gives those impacted until Mar. 28 to voluntarily accept the offer or face “involuntary separation.” The memo’s provisions cover Navy sailors, U.S. Marines, U.S. Naval Academy and Naval Reserve Officers Training Crops (NROTC) midshipmen.
“The Department of the Navy (DON) recognizes two sexes: male and female. An individual’s sex is immutable, unchanging during a person’s life,” the memo reads. “Individuals who have a current diagnosis or history of, or exhibit symptoms
A Democratic member of Congress has emerged as a vocal defender of the status quo at the National Institutes of Health and is the son of scientists connected to the embattled government agency.
Rep. Jake Auchincloss of Massachusetts expressed opposition to the Trump administration’s cuts at the NIH at a House Energy and Commerce Committee markup on Feb. 25, arguing “curiosity-driven peer reviewed basic research is not meant to pass the politicians’ test.”
But Auchincloss may have a conflict of interest: his parents. Auchincloss’s father, Hugh Auchincloss, was an aide to National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Anthony Fauci for 16 years. No run-of-the-mill bureaucrat, the senior Auchincloss steered
A Border Patrol helicopter flew overhead in a sight Russell Johnson said was a rarity over his ranch until President Donald Trump returned to the White House.
Johnson says he would like to see an even greater Border Patrol presence along New Mexico’s border with Mexico, but agents “have at least some presence on the border, [and] it’s just so reassuring that maybe this issue is actually going to get tackled,” Johnson told The Daily Signal as he drove his truck over the dirt roads on his ranch.
Just up the hill, a Border Patrol agent sat in his marked vehicle, stationed to overlook the last remaining
When it comes to targeting wasteful, ineffective, and questionable government spending, the Trump administration is not just focused on personnel costs and expensive subscriptions to Politico. It has also shown a desire to tackle the mandatory government spending that comprises the majority (and a growing share) of the federal budget.
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) recently released a proposed rule relating to the Obamacare Exchanges. (A summary is available here.) In some cases, the rule, which needs to go through a formal notice-and-comment period before taking effect, restores policies from the first Trump administration that the Biden interregnum undid. Other policies in the rule attempt to tackle
A coalition of House GOP lawmakers is gearing up to introduce legislation preventing Chinese nationals from obtaining U.S. student visas, according to a new report.
On Wednesday, Fox News revealed that Rep. Riley Moore, R-W.Va., is preparing to file the Stop Chinese Communist Prying by Vindicating Intellectual Safeguards in Academia Act, or the “Stop CCP VISAs Act,” later this week. The legislation, according to the outlet, is intended to block what the congressman contended is Beijing’s “exploitation” of America’s student visa program to undermine U.S. interests.
A copy of the measure obtained by Fox stipulates that, “An alien who is a national of the People’s Republic of China may not be issued

Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) insists President Trump is trying to start a civil war in this country and indicated it would take incredible restraint from the left not to fight back.
Waters, speaking at a Democrat retreat in Northern Virginia, made repeated assertions that Trump is gearing up for war.
She kicked off the unhinged commentary by telling reporters the administration's efforts to reign in fraud, waste, and abuse in the federal government would leave seniors suffering and "homeless people ... on the street."
“And so when that happens, what does Trump expect?"

A key aide to former President Joe Biden may have exceeded their authority by liberally using an autopen to sign official documents, according to two former White House sources, as President Trump’s aides have set up “far more restrictive” rules governing the use of the mechanical device.
A document obtained by The Post outlines the narrow set of circumstances in which Trump’s signature can be affixed to documents, following controversy this week kicked off by a Heritage Foundation analysis of Biden signatures on various records, including last-minute pardons.
A small group of officials under both Biden and Trump have been delegated the power to get documents “signed” robotically,

The Internal Revenue Service ordered most of its approximately 20,000 customer service employees back to the office this week, ending a long era of hybrid and remote work. There was just one problem: The IRS didn’t have enough desks to seat them all. And so, many customer service workers learned Sunday that they would not have to return to the office on Monday, after all. The Return to Office (RTO) mandate has been postponed until further notice, union leaders said Wednesday. In the end, the IRS and its employee union evidently agreed that the back-to-office order might lead to long
Relatives of Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett residing in multiple households received pizza deliveries from an unknown person over the past weekend.
David Williams, Barrett's brother-in-law, told the Charleston Police Department that some households related to Barrett received the unusual delivery, according to an incident report obtained by Newsweek. Amanda Coney Williams, Barrett's sister and David's wife, was also the subject of a bomb threat sent to an employee of the Charleston County Sheriff's Office on Saturday.
Schumer Blinks (AOC Upset)

I think we all knew this was coming. As Ed pointed out a few hours ago, Schumer had already signaled he was caving by lunchtime today. So this afternoon he made it official in another speech.
"Republican rejection leads us to a decision, and it's not really a decision it's a Hobson's choice," Schumer said. He continued, "Either proceed with the bill before us or risk Donald Trump throwing America into the chaos of a shutdown. This is my view is no choice at all.
"While the CR bill is very bad, the potential for a shutdown has consequences for America that are much, much worse."
US President Donald Trump has threatened a 200% tariff on any alcohol coming to the US from the European Union (EU) in the latest twist of an escalating trade war. The threat is a response to the EU's plans for a 50% tax on imports of US-produced whiskey as part of its retaliation to Trump's tariffs on all steel and aluminium imports to the US. The US president called for the immediate removal of the EU's "nasty" tariff on US whiskey, calling the bloc "hostile and abusive" and "formed for the sole purpose of taking advantage of the United States".

on X — And Murder?— to Their Terror Tactics 13 replies
At least five well-known conservatives with large followings on Elon Musk's X social media platform were "swatted" overnight. These attempts by unknowns to get conservatives killed in a hail of law enforcement gunfire appear to be part of an organized effort to affect politics by acts of violence. That is the textbook definition of terrorism, and it appears to be organized.
That's dark enough, but things could be worse than that.
Add to the swattings the attempted take over of Trump Tower, and in February, an aborted take over the Trump Hotel in Las Vegas, the organized Tesla dealership attacks, and the strange and frightening attacks

It's rather amazing that anyone thought the Bud Light/Dylan Mulvaney promotional deal was anything but inauthentic - not to mention bone-headed and stupid - but now a former Bud Light executive has spoken up, with some insider's insight into just how hare-brained this whole thing was.
“The problem with the Bud Light-Dylan Mulvaney partnership was they just were not an authentic partnership at all,” Anson Frericks told Fox News Digital. “They were catering to a lot of those special interests.”
Frericks began his career at Anheuser-Busch in 2011 and was with the company for over a decade. He told Fox News Digital he realized
Democrats are so soft. They're been throwing fits for the past ten years over President Donald Trump, and they've ramped up the mania since he got back into office.
But it looks like some of them just can't take it anymore.
MSNBC made Rachel Maddow commit to being on five days a week for the first 100 days of Trump's term, when she had perviously had only been doing once a week. But host Lawrence O'Donnell said to her that he hadn't made the same commitment, and he was "exhausted" already.
"I know you've pledged to cover and be here for the first hundred days of the Trump presidency," he said.
