Judge Who's Screwing Around With Trump's
Deportation Flights 5 replies
Well, Attorney General Pam Bondi isn’t going to discuss further the details regarding the deportation flights of Tren de Aragua members, a Venezuelan gang that the Trump administration has designated a foreign terror group. Judge James Boasberg, however, wanted to know the classified details regarding this operation.(snip) the Justice Department informed the courts that they’re invoking the State Secrets Act. (snip)Here is the fatal flaw with DC Obama Judge Jeb Boasberg's order:
Even if these designated foreign terrorists are entitled to individual court review before their deportation, which is disputed, the DC court is not the proper court.
Judge Boasberg did not, and does not, have the power
The Supreme Court has granted President Donald Trump’s request to halt the reinstatement of millions of dollars in Department of Education grants that the government targeted over concerns about diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs.
Chief Justice John Roberts would have denied the administration’s request for relief, according to a court document. Justice Elena Kagan issued a dissent, as did Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, whose dissent was joined by Justice Sonia Sotomayor.
This is a breaking story and will be updated.

Emmanuel Macron is a lame-duck president without a parliamentary majority. He has turned France is another EU-corrupted government - stopping free and fair elections by use of the courts()snip) Macron is evil - he arranged for this court verdict by choosing a close ally as the judge of Le Pen’s court case. Marine Le Pen, who heads the National Rally (RN) party was convicted of embezzlement and barred from running for public office for five years, sentenced to four years in prison, with two years suspended and two under house arrest, and was fined €100,000 ($108,000).
Macron’s judges took claimed finance violations and turned it into a criminal complaint to

After you finish this blog, you’ll be asking the million-dollar question: Why is Chief Justice John Roberts hanging out with the Deep State’s #1 color revolution architect? out the left’s favorite “Republican” has some very interesting buddies.(snip)
According to Norm Eisen—the man who practically wrote the Deep State’s playbook on color revolutions, all things anti-Trump, and lawfare in the US—he and Chief Justice John Roberts are not only good pals, but they even spent a week together in the Czech Republic. According to Norm, the two BFFs were there working on “American rule of law” issues.Hmm…
Norm was so proud of this that he actually bragged about the trip

Only in the twisted world of the DC Swamp could something called the “Institute of Peace” be caught deleting a terabyte of financial data to cover up their crimes. And thanks to Elon Musk and his DOGE team, the truth is coming out anyway—because these criminal bozos were dumb enough to think they could erase their tracks with a delete button. (snipp) these geniuses tried to wipe clean a massive amount of financial data—one full terabyte—in a last-ditch attempt to hide their crimes. But their tech illiteracy gave them away.(snip) “They deleted a terabyte of financial data to cover their crimes, but they don’t understand technology, so we recovered it.”
As the Deep State Intelligence Apparatus continues its long-standing position in opposition to President Trump, perhaps the Trump administration finally hit back at one of the lead elements.General Timothy Haugh has been fired from his position as Director of the National Security Agency (NSA) on Friday. Additionally, his deputy Wendy Noble has been removed from the NSA and reassigned. No explanations yet made. (snip)Director Haugh recently met with Elon Musk and DOGE Team.

Measles Propaganda

In the currently ongoing outbreak, there have been about 572 measles cases in Ontario, Canada. This is a significantly larger outbreak than the currently hyped one in Texas, which has about 422 cases. The mainstream media has almost completely ignored the Ontario outbreak - their reporting has only focused on the Texas outbreak.
Ontario's top public health official Dr. Kieran Moore does not recommend mandatory vaccination and says the standard public health measures to limit the spread are working. This is a very reasonable response, yet when Sec. Kennedy says something similar; he is viciously attacked.(snip)
another example of the liberal media/pharma machine harassing Sec. Kennedy and Pres. Trump.
New chat logs released by the House Judiciary Committee this week show the extraordinary lengths the FBI went to behind the scenes to shut down any discussion of Hunter Biden’s laptop in October 2020 after the New York Post broke the story.
The conversations, withheld by the FBI under Director Chris Wray, show that senior leadership issued an internal “gag order” on the laptop.
The FBI had been in possession of the abandoned MacBook Pro for 10 months by that stage, after computer repair shop owner John Paul Mac Isaac handed it over and warned of the potential crimes and national security concerns he had found.
The de minimis loophole comes from back in the 1930s. The idea back then was, say you went on a vacation to Paris, you shouldn’t have to file customs paperwork or pay taxes if you decided to ship some little Eiffel Tower statues to your friends back home.
Congress in 2015 then raised the de minimis threshold from $200 to $800. However, the e-commerce world exploded, and Chinese companies began using the de minimis loophole to ship cheap goods (ex. Temu and Shein) into the USA direct to consumers without paying any customs duty.
Attorney General Pamela Bondi announced on March 31 that she is directing the Department of Justice (DOJ) to end its lawsuit against the state of Georgia over its 2021 election law, Senate Bill 202, reversing a high-profile challenge originally brought under the Biden administration.
In June 2021, the DOJ under the Biden administration alleged that Georgia lawmakers enacted Senate Bill 202 with the intent to suppress the votes of black Georgians. The DOJ had cited violations of the Voting Rights Act in its complaint and accused state officials of racial discrimination in election policy.

Wall Street’s bloodbath spilled over into a second day on Friday as the Dow Jones Industrial Average plummeted by more than 2,200 points after China unveiled stiff retaliatory taxes to President Trump’s tariffs.
The Dow tanked 2,231 points — a day after suffering a 1,679-point drop, its previous worst session since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. The two-day selloff wiped out $6.4 trillion in market value.
The attorney for Karmelo Anthony, the 17-year-old accused of murdering football star Austin Metcalf at a Texas track meet, insists he doesn’t have “any reason” to think the killing “wasn’t in self defense” — and will request the teen’s bond be lowered from $1,000,000.[snip]
he was charged with fatally stabbing Metcalf, also 17, and leaving him to die in his twin brother’s arms during the athletic event in Frisco Wednesday morning.
After briefly meeting with the teenager for the first time on Friday afternoon, Anthony’s attorney Deric Walpole told NBC Dallas-Fort Worth that at this point in time he believes his client acted in self defense

Democratic strategist James Carville in a Friday video demanded a “reckoning” for entities that have collaborated with President Donald Trump’s administration.
Carville alluded to France during World War II when some women faced humiliation, including head-shaving, for allegedly collaborating with Nazis. The strategist, with an empty or near-empty wine glass on his nightstand, said he does not believe Trump “collaborators” should be assaulted but said they must at least face an “intellectual reckoning.”
Thousands of protesters gathered for various so-called “Hands Off!” rallies throughout the United States to protest President Donald Trump and Elon Musk.
A video posted to X by ABC News showed “thousands of protesters” who had “flooded the streets” in Boston, Massachusetts, as part of a “Hands Off!” Rally. Breitbart News’s Sean Moran previously reported that protesters were slated to gather across the nation on Saturday for the “Hands Off!” rallies to tell Trump and Musk to take their “Hands Off!” people’s healthcare, Social Security, “civil rights,” and their freedom and education.

Primary Poll, Signaling Shift in Democratic Power 19 replies
In a stunning revelation, a new poll shows Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) leading Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) by double digits in a hypothetical head-to-head New York primary matchup. This surprising shift in the political landscape highlights the growing power of the far-left faction within the Democratic Party as Ocasio-Cortez continues to build her base among younger, more progressive voters. Schumer, long seen as the establishment figure in New York and national politics, now faces a growing challenge from within his own party, signaling that even the most entrenched political figures could be vulnerable.
Two of the most divisive politicians in recent American history emerged from hiding this week to play Monday morning quarterback against President Trump, and the Trump White House was not pleased in the slightest.
As ABC News reported, Barack Obama and Kamala Harris launched cheap shots the president in separate speeches on Thursday over his imposition of reciprocal tariffs and ‘attacking’ American values.
“Look, I don’t think what we just witnessed in terms of economic policy and tariffs is going to be good for America, but that’s a specific policy.
Barack Obama has called on US citizens, colleges and law firms to resist Donald Trump’s political agenda – and warned Americans to prepare to “possibly sacrifice” in support of democratic values.
“It has been easy during most of our lifetimes to say you are a progressive or say you are for social justice or say you’re for free speech and not have to pay a price for it,” Obama said during a speech at Hamilton College in Clinton, New York, on Thursday.

Barack Obama made a shockingly honest admission about the state of his marriage to Michelle Obama.
“I was in a deep deficit with my wife,” Barack, 63, told Hamilton College President Steven Tepper in a conversation Thursday, according to the Daily Beast.
“So I have been trying to dig myself out of that hole by doing occasionally fun things.”
The former president of the United States has previously suggested that his back-to-back terms in office from 2009 to 2017 took a toll on his relationship with the former first lady.
A single Republican senator — Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) — voted against the nomination of Harmeet Dhillon to serve as assistant attorney general, veering away from the rest of her GOP colleagues who voted in favor.
After her nomination in December, lawmakers finally held a formal vote Thursday and Dhillon was approved in a 52-45 vote. However, Murkowski opposed the nomination and sided with Democrats. President Donald Trump announced in December the nomination of Dhillon to work as Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights at the U.S. Department of Justice.
Former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms (D) is preparing to launch a 2026 gubernatorial bid in Georgia, according to a Friday report from the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Bottoms served as a city council member and spent three years in the White House as a senior adviser during the Biden administration. She was also a close confidante of former Vice President Kamala Harris throughout her 2024 presidential campaign.
Jaguar Land Rover will pause shipments of its Britain-made cars to the United States for a month, it said on Saturday, as it considers how to mitigate the cost of President Donald Trump's 25% tariff.

"As we work to address the new trading terms with our business partners, we are taking some short-term actions, including a shipment pause in April, as we develop our mid- to longer-term plans," JLR said in an emailed statement.
