Former President Bill Clinton took a trip to Oklahoma City on Saturday morning to attend a ceremony remembering the lives lost at the deadly Oklahoma City bombing.
While speaking at the ceremony, Clinton shared, “I still remember as if it were 30 minutes ago, coming here with Hillary to that memorial service and saying: ‘You have lost too much, but you have not lost everything. You have certainly not lost America, and we will be with you for as many tomorrows as it takes.”
He added, “I do think we’ve kept that commitment.”
The deadly Oklahoma City bombing occurred on April 19, 1995, after a truck bomb exploded at the
If a sitting member of the United States House of Representatives and third generation member of a political dynasty taking a selfie and posing with double thumbs up while dressed in his business casual in front of stripped down inmates in a foreign country as part of a PR campaign for a controversial and legally suspect American policy to send more individuals there sounds wrong, it is because it is.
Rep. Riley Moore, R-W.Va., took a trip away from his 2nd Congressional District of West Virginia and his Washington, D.C. office to El Salvador to get what is becoming a highly-sought photo-op for GOP members these days.
Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker says public safety is under attack by the Trump administration.
The governor spoke Thursday at a news conference intended to highlight violence intervention efforts on Chicago’s Far South Side.
“Public safety is under attack by the Trump administration. Over the past few months, the White House has dissolved the Office of Gun Violence Prevention, they’ve threatened dramatic cuts to ATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives), they’ve repealed the policy of zero tolerance for rogue gun dealers. They’re making it easier for guns to flow into our communities and harder for us to fight back,” Pritzker said.

MSNBC anchor Symone Sanders claimed on Saturday that the deportation of Salvadoran citizen and suspected MS-13 gang member Kilmar Abrego-Garcia was just one step on the road toward President Donald Trump’s administration deporting black American citizens.
Sanders began with an article written for The Nation earlier in the week — in which the author had suggested the deportation of criminal aliens, designated terrorists, and gang members effectively heralded the fall of democracy in the United States — and argued that “people of color and vulnerable communities … are next in line.”
Democratic figures and even the former first family’s aides are saying that former President Biden needs to stay out of politics, according to a new report from “The Hill.”
The outlet’s senior political correspondent, Amie Parnes, spoke to former first lady Jill Biden’s communications director Michael LaRosa, who stated that Biden’s staff needs to steer him away from the spotlight because the party is not interested in seeing him.
“If they had advisers who had their hand on the pulse of the Democratic Party or national politics, they would have understood the intense level of anger or indifference to them that remains inside our party and isn’t going away anytime soon,”
President Donald Trump’s Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has established a dedicated tip line for whistleblowers to report cases of chemical and surgical sex change procedures performed on minors.
To enforce Trump’s executive order “Protecting Children From Chemical and Surgical Mutilation,” the new tip line allows individuals to report concerns related to the administration of puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and sex change surgeries on children.
“HHS is committed to protecting whistleblowers to the full extent of the law,” a department’s explainer about the tip line said.
SCOTUS Could Sell Our Nation Out This Summer

The Supreme Court has temporarily halted deportations of alien criminals (Tren de Aragua) from Texas. Only Justices Alito and Thomas dissented. Hopefully, we have nothing to worry about. However, if the court demands trials for each of these illegal aliens, it’s over for the US. Perhaps, they may only object to sending them to the El Salvador prison.
Tren de Aragua had no foothold in the US before 2021, and now they do. They are in most major cities and beyond. We must get them out of here.
We cannot afford the time or expense to provide each person with a taxpayer-funded trial. The country
Ordinary Americans deserve reparations for the establishment’s hugely destructive and decades-long immigration policy, presidential adviser Stephen Miller told a TV interviewer on Saturday.
“We all deserve reparations for what has been stolen from us,” Miller told Newsmax TV. “It is a tragedy that defies our ability to even describe it.”
Miller explained the case after he was told that Democrat Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse had suggested that Americans pay reparations to Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the deported illegal migrant from El Salvador who is credibly charged with being a wife-beating, human trafficking member of the murderous MS-13 gang.
This year’s White House Easter Egg roll on the South Lawn will feature events sponsored by some major corporations, including Amazon, Meta, Youtube.
Amazon is sponsoring the reading nook offered to guests, while Meta plans to offer an AI-Powered experience and photo opportunities in addition to Youtube’s Bunny Hop Stage according to a Friday release.
First lady Melania Trump, Attorney General Pam Bondi, Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins, Secretary of Labor Lori Chavez-DeRemer and White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt are each slated to read to children in attendance.
Monday’s event will also feature performances from the United States’ Marine, Army, Navy and Air Force Bands.
The Heritage Foundation has compiled a searchable Classical Schools Database featuring nearly 900 schools across the United States that say they are “committed to offering a classical liberal arts education to their students.”
The guide allows parents to search by state, city, county, and ZIP code for their ideal school from 894 options. It also allows them to input the child’s grade level, whether the school is private or charter, and whether the school is five days a week or operates on a nontraditional schedule.
Parents can even choose the religious denomination (choices include Anglican, Baptist, Catholic, Jewish, and Orthodox, among others).

Bill Clinton called on Americans to put aside “whose resentments matter most” and issued a defense of government employees as he returned to Oklahoma City on Saturday for a remembrance service for the 30th anniversary of the deadliest homegrown terrorist attack in US history.
“If our lives are going to be dominated by efforts to dominate people we disagree with, we’re going to put the 250-year-old march toward a more perfect union at risk,” he said. “None of us would ever get much done. Believe me, we’ve all got something to be mad about."

Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced this past week that he’s commissioning a series of studies to investigate potential environmental causes for autism, and underscored how the rate of autism, including severe autism, is continuing to increase.
Speaking specifically of severe cases of autism, RFK Jr. noted that some children may never grow up to play baseball or even use the bathroom by themselves.
Some Democrat politicians, like Sen. Elizabeth Warren (MA) and Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker, criticized Kennedy for allegedly standing against people with autism. RFK, however, was met with support from family members of Americans who suffer from severe autism.

Biased Against Democrats: ‘That’s
What’s Killing Us’(VIDEO) 36 replies
Rep. James Clyburn of South Carolina has said that Democrats have a winning message but that mainstream media is biased against them.
In an appearance on MSNBC, Clyburn explained that Democrats main problem is that they are unable to share their winning message with the rest of the country because the mainstream media is unwilling to amplify it.
He explained.
I think the message that’s coming from the Democratic Party is a good message. The problem we’ve got, honestly, is that we have to depend upon the media to deliver it.
Rep. Jamie Raskin threatened foreign leaders who “facilitated authoritarianism in our country” by currying favor with President Trump on issues like deportation — saying that Democrats will not “look kindly” on his supporters when they “come back to power.”
Referencing El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele specifically, Raskin (D-Md.), 62, suggested that Dems should keep score of foreign leaders who brownnose Trump, 78, during his second term.
“Implicit in it should be the idea that if and when we come back to power — and we will — we are not going to look kindly upon people who … facilitated authoritarianism in our country,” Raskin told “Pod Save America” host Tommy Vietor
Is it Time to Ignore the Judiciary?

It seems clear to me that the broad scope and speed of the administration’s actions have knocked the sense out of the media, the Democrats and, alas, the judiciary. They cannot seem to process the swift and expansive range of change without making themselves look ridiculous.

I could describe many examples but the easiest most complete one is that of the gang banger, wife beating, human trafficking suspect Salvadorean citizen who illegally crossed out borders and resided here. You know who I mean -- the thug the press describes as a “Maryland Man.”
So the nation is transfixed -- or at least Democrats and the news media --
Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that his recent trip to El Salvador was not about defending Kilmar Abrego Garcia but about defending the due process.
Partial transcript as follows:
JONATHAN KARL: As you know, the president himself has been attacking you by pointing out some of the aspects of Abrego Garcia’s record, including the fact that his wife had an order of protection against him in 2021, and — and alleged some pretty serious allegations of abuse, and even that that he had — he had detained her. Are you concerned about your defense of somebody
After many years in the wilderness, Ann Coulter is finally back on Team Trump.
The conservative commentator and columnist appeared on C-SPAN this weekend where she answered calls from the public about her views on the current administration.
When asked by the host her initial thoughts, Coulter described it as the “most wonderful 100 days in U.S. history,” adding that she “can’t believe how great Trump is.”
She explained:
You know, I campaigned with Trump when he was running in 2016. He did ask for a copy of my book, Adios America. A lot of the immigration stuff came from that. Huge fan.
The Pentagon is in “total chaos” and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is unlikely to remain in his role, according to its former top spokesperson, who painted a scene of dysfunction, backstabbing and continuous missteps at the highest levels of the department.
“The building is in disarray under Hegseth’s leadership,” John Ullyot wrote Sunday in a POLITICO Magazine opinion piece. “The dysfunction is now a major distraction for the president — who deserves better from his senior leadership.”
Ullyot, who resigned from the Pentagon last week, described a department in collapse. He accused Hegseth’s team of “falsehoods”
President AOC? Yes, it’s a real possibility.

Sunday is a “clearing the spindle” day, and one of the things on my spindle has been Nate Silver’s prediction last week that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, aka AOC, is currently the most likely person to be the Democrat party’s 2028 presidential candidate. Frankly, I think he’s right. She’s telegenic, has name recognition, and manages to make the same politics that killed tens of millions of people in the 20th century seem user-friendly. She’s also Bernie Sanders’ anointed heir, and he missed the nomination in 2016 and 2020 only because the Democrat party panicked.
Last week, Nate Silver, while acknowledging that it’s early days yet, said he still thinks that it’s possible
Last month, in Fremont County, Colorado, a mostly rural county southwest of Colorado Springs, two Fremont County detectives noted a van passing them without dimming headlights and so turned and initiated a traffic stop - and what they found was an eye-opener: Around 180,000 rounds of .30 caliber and 7.62mm rifle ammunition, packed in cases in the van.
Two Mexican nationals in the U.S. on nonimmigrant visas were arrested during a traffic stop in Colorado last month while transporting 180,000 rounds of ammunition, authorities said Wednesday.
Caesar Ramon Martinez Solis, 41, and Humberto Ivan Amador Gavira, 24, both of Mexico, were pulled over in Canon City
Hillary Clinton is once again drawing criticism for her controversial stance on immigration, this time defending an accused MS-13 member who was deported without trial. The former Secretary of State and 2016 Democratic presidential candidate has come under fire for her remarks, in which she prioritized the so-called “rights” of illegal immigrants over the safety of American citizens. This latest defense of a known gang member only adds to the growing concern among many Americans that the political elite are more focused on protecting criminals than securing the safety of law-abiding citizens.
In a social media post, Clinton called on “Americans of conscience”
A San Francisco-based drag queen group is facing backlash after its Easter performance, which mocked Jesus and Christianity, was marketed to children. The controversial show, held during the Easter weekend, featured performances that some critics argue crossed a line by making light of sacred Christian symbols and beliefs. Despite the growing outrage, the group has defended its performance, claiming it was meant to be an inclusive celebration of creativity and self-expression. However, the performance was marketed to a young audience during one of Christianity’s most sacred holidays.

Many Floridians have had bizarre encounters with alligators — but this one might take the cake.
A Sunshine State resident took to Reddit to share their frightening experience with two creepy reptiles that came up to their home’s front door, which was all captured on the family’s Ring camera.
The footage shows two enormous alligators dilly-dallying around the home’s front porch.
When one of the alligators saw that no one was coming to the door to welcome them into their home, they lingered a little bit longer before growing impatient.

A Democrat judge in New Mexico resigned from his bench last month after immigration agents arrested an alleged Tren de Aragua gang member living in his home. The illegal alien entered the U.S. in Eagle Pass, Texas, before being released on an immigration parole due to overcrowding. He eventually moved to New Mexico.
Federal prosecutors in the District of New Mexico allege that 23-year-old Cristhian Ortega-Lopez was illegally in possession of a firearm and has ties to the hyperviolent Venezuelan gang, Tren de Aragua. Earlier this year, President Donald Trump and the U.S. State Department declared the gang to be a foreign terrorist organization.
