Frank Luntz tries to bait Trump voters
over 401K and not a single hand goes up

Pollster Frank Luntz inspired mockery after trying to bait Trump voters into expressing displeasure over their retirement accounts. As Americans adjust to the effects of President Donald Trump’s tariffs, it’s clear that some are more focused on the big picture instead of the temporary pain. Luntz learned this firsthand when he questioned 15 supporters of the president about their 401(k) accounts. Watch: [video] “I need to ask you an issue that no one’s brought up and has crashed your 401(k)s, most of you, the tariffs,” Luntz said. “The stock market is way down.” “It needed a correction,” said Sarina from New York. “Oh, so you support it?” a visibly surprised Luntz asked,

An Iraqi man was the first immigrant the U.S. deported to Rwanda in a new supposed Trump administration arrangement.
The U.S. deported Omar Abdulsattar Ameen earlier this month, after he lived in the U.S. since at least 2014, when he was granted refugee status, Reuters reported Thursday.
The Handbasket, an independent news outlet, broke the story after publishing a U.S. State Department cable detailing the new deportation program.
Under the supposed agreement, Rwanda would serve as a “Third Party Nation” receiving immigrants whom the U.S. couldn’t deport to their home countries.
Ameen was the first to be deported in this new agreement, but at least 10 more immigrants are expected to go
New details about the fatal helicopter-plane crash near DC’s Reagan Airport reveal the female pilot was repeatedly ignored warnings from her male co-pilot to turn away but she flew right into the passenger jet.
An American Airlines flight carrying approximately 64 souls collided with a Blackhawk helicopter near Washington D.C. Reagan National Airport (DCA) in late January.
All 64 passengers in the jet were killed.
The three pilots in the Blackhawk helicopter also died in the explosive crash.
A preliminary FAA report indicated that staffing at the DCA Air Traffic Control tower was “not normal” at the time of the helicopter-plane collision.
According to NBC News, at the time of the collision,
In Colorado Springs, early Sunday Morning, Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) officers swooped down on an "underground nightclub," seizing drugs, weapons, and at least 100 illegal aliens. It's unclear what an "underground nightclub" is, but it's a safe bet it didn't have a liquor license.
There were over 200 people in the club at the time of the raid.
More than 100 people reported to be in the country illegally were detained in a raid at a nightclub early Sunday morning, according to Drug Enforcement Administration officials.
The Rocky Mountain division of the DEA reported the multi-agency enforcement operation on X around 4 a.m.
Democrats seem to think the way to go after the Trump administration is to attack their moves regarding illegal aliens. But that's one of the areas where he has the most approval. Instead, it's Democrats attaching themselves to 80/20 issues on the 20 side, as they're doing in the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia and the arrest of the judge in Wisconsin for allegedly helping an illegal alien evade ICE agents.
Now there's another case that's making the media rounds. You may have seen the headlines blaring about a two-year-old American citizen being deported. The judge in the case raised questions about "due process" --
With President Donald Trump making the deportation of illegal immigrants a priority on Day One, Democrats have been relentless in trying to undercut his policies on deportations by way of the courts as well as the court of public opinion.
In recent weeks, in particular, the left, their activist groups, and the mainstream media have all hammered Trump over the deportation of illegal immigrant Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an alleged MS-13 member who was deported to his home country of El Salvador back in March.
Because Abrego Garcia has been incorrectly described as a "wrongly deported Maryland man," Democrats have made him their poster child for opposition to Trump's deportation policies.
President Trump attended the funeral of Pope Francis, who passed away last week at the age of 88. The Holy Father had been in ill health. Yet, the media is attacking the president for his choice of suit; supposedly, it was supposed to be dark or black. Whatever the case, the ‘fashion faux pas’ spread like a brushfire (via NYT):
President Trump, it seems, is fully committed to going his own way when it comes to international relations — even during the funeral of a pope.
On Saturday, as he joined other world leaders to pay his respects to Pope Francis,
I'm not really sure if Donald Trump is the luckiest man on earth, is blessed by Divine Providence, or is an unparalleled political genius. I suspect the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia demonstrates a combination of all three.
Think about this: Democratic political leaders, political strategists and social media influencers have made a cause célèbres of an alleged wife-beating, suspected human trafficking, illegal alien judicially-determined MS-13 gang member that the Trump administration deported back to his home country of El Salvador, but whom Democrats demand be returned to the United States.
Let that sink in.
Judges Behaving Like Criminals

They didn’t “make a mistake.”
They didn’t “misunderstand the law.”
They didn’t “exercise poor judgment.”
No—New Mexico Judge Joel M. Cano, Massachusetts Judge Shelley Richmond, and Wisconsin Judge Hannah Dugan made conscious, deliberate, and premeditated decisions to aid criminals, obstruct law enforcement, and desecrate the very system they were sworn to uphold.
In just a few days' time, these three black-robed offenders committed what can only be described as acts of judicial treason against the American people.
And make no mistake: holding them fully accountable isn’t merely an option—it’s an absolute necessity.
Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) just can’t help himself. Instead of addressing legitimate concerns about sexually explicit books being made available to kids in school libraries, he’s back to doing what he does best: deflecting and blaming Republicans. Weighing in on the Mahmoud v. Taylor Supreme Court case, Schiff absurdly claimed that it’s the GOP turning “LGBT or trans youth” into a political issue.
It’s the same tired playbook we’ve seen from the Left time and time again: Parents raise valid concerns about their children being exposed to sexually explicit material in public schools and libraries, and the response from Democrats is to smear them as bigots.
The typically euphemistic language of politics is increasingly being replaced by profanity as the midterms loom and Democrat candidates are dropping F-bombs and other expletives in their ads and appearances.
The trend is not limited to campaigning. Certain words such as “ass” and “pi***d,” previously unheard for decades in the stodgy Capitol, are making their appearance in speeches on the floors of Congress.
One lawmaker, Texas Democrat Jasmine Crockett, has drawn extensive media coverage as she’s forged a reputation using the kind of language one expects to hear in the mean streets. [Video]
One lexicography expert says the trend is born out of frustration.
Representative Jamie Raskin (D-MD) claimed Friday on MSNBC’s “The Rachel Maddow Show” that Trump administration officials could be arrested for “interfering with a legal proceeding” or “kidnapping.”
Raskin said, “I regard it very much within the prism of what we’ve been dealing with over the last month, which is an intense assault on judicial independence. They have been disobeying federal court orders systematically. They have incurred criminal contempt findings in the courtroom of Judge Boasberg, a conservative Republican, a judge. They have been demanding the impeachment of judges who rule against the lawlessness of the Trump administration. There are now more than 90 preliminary injunctions and temporary restraining orders
Is It Time To Ignore the Courts?

The U.S. Constitution is a political masterpiece. The ideas of limited government enshrined therein, with its system of checks and balances, its federalist structure, and its Bill of Rights, is responsible for more freedom and prosperity, not just in America but worldwide, than any other document other than the Bible.
The Constitution only had two glaring flaws. The first was the reluctant tolerance of slavery, which was eventually corrected by the 13th Amendment (and a civil war). The second was a lack of restraint on the powers of the judiciary. There are mechanisms for the legislative and executive branches to check each other, but nothing with which to check the judiciary

Biden’s Decline: ‘We Should Have Done Better’ 33 replies
While accepting an award at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner on Saturday, Axios reporter Alex Thompson acknowledged that he and other members of the mainstream media failed to properly report on President Biden’s declining mental acuity.
“Being truth tellers also means telling the truth about ourselves,” Thompson said as he accepted the Aldo Beckman Award for Overall Excellence in White House Coverage. “We, myself included, missed a lot of this story.”
“President Biden’s decline and its cover-up by the people around him is a reminder that every White House, regardless of party, is capable of deception,” he added.
“Some people trust us less because of it,”
On Monday, a House Democrat introduced seven articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump, kicking off a bid that has virtually no chance of succeeding in the Republican-led Congress.
The impeachment resolution from Rep. Shri Thanedar (D-MI) accuses Trump of “high crimes and misdemeanors” over alleged constitutional violations related to taxpayer funds, deportations, tariffs, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) effort led by Elon Musk, retaliation against the press, and others.
“Donald Trump has repeatedly demonstrated that he is unfit to serve as President and represents a clear and present danger to our nation’s constitution and our democracy,” Thanedar said
Former first lady Michelle Obama voiced deep concerns about what’s happening to migrants under President Trump’s aggressive deportation policy, railing against its impact on her home city of Chicago.
During a conversation about race and fear, the former first lady acknowledged that she has a pretty protected lifestyle, while fretting that everyday people living outside her bubble might be suffering.
“In this current climate, for me it’s what’s happening to immigrants,” Obama, 61, told “On Purpose with Jay Shetty” during a podcast episode that dropped Monday when asked her most “recent test of fear.”
“It’s not the fear for myself anymore,”

“Deranged” doesn’t even begin to cover the LGBTQ++ qweirdos anymore.
According to a new item by Reduxx journalist Amy Hamm, a diaper-wearing pervert has just won a years-long court battle to force his health insurance provider to cover the cost of a very “unique” surgery: he’s keeping his penis, but he’s adding a fake “neo-vagina” between his male appendage and his…waste hole.
I’m assuming that means he’s lopping off his testes? Blech, who knows.
With the average cost of a new car edging toward the $50,000 mark, affordable, basic transportation is becoming increasingly difficult for many Americans.
Slate, a new EV startup backed by Jeff Bezos, believes its new $25,000 pickup truck, which could cost less than $20,000 with tax credits, could help change that, its CEO, Chris Barman, told Business Insider.
"There's a massive population of people out there when it comes to safe, reliable, affordable transportation; there just really aren't many alternatives for them," Barman said in an interview ahead of the unveiling of the new EV this week.

Illinois Democrat Governor J.B. Pritzker, apparently beginning his quest for the 2028 Democratic presidential nomination, called for “mass protests” and “destruction” in an evident attempt to outflank any other prospective candidate in rhetoric targeting the Trump administration.
An average of recent polls of prospective 2028 Democratic presidential candidates found that former Vice President Kamala Harris led with 27.1%, followed by former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg at 16.1%, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) at 12.9%, New Jersey Senator Cory Booker at 8.6%, and California Governor Gavin Newsom at 7.9%. Pritzker ranked 10th with 3.2%.
Speaking at the New Hampshire Democratic Party’s McIntyre-Shaheen 100 Club Dinner on Sunday, Pritzker bellowed, “Never before
In the latest episode of “Political Theater on the Hill,” House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) and Sen.

It is expected to take up the budget bill during the upcoming session, which is why Jeffries and Booker are giving this particular performance. From ABC News.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), during a ridiculous "sit-in" on the steps of the Capitol, invoked Civil War-era rhetoric to portray Democrats as "patriots" and the Republican party as "traitors."
Jeffries' controversial comments came during a staged protest on the steps of Congress, where he was initially joined by Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ/Sparta) and then accompanied by several other Democrats and their colleagues. This was by design, an attempt to make their "sit-in" appear to be an organic swelling of support—impressive in their own minds, much like Booker's fake 25-hour filibuster. Rev. William Barber joined the exercise in futility. He discussed putting “principles over party," triggering Jeffries to
A liberal Minnesota prosecutor receiving backlash for letting a Tesla vandal off easy is now pushing to reduce “racial disparities” in sentencing.
Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty’s office will consider a defendant’s “racial identity” when weighing potential plea deals starting Monday, KARE 11 reported. Moriarty drew criticism days earlier after declining to prosecute an employee in Democratic Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s administration who keyed six Tesla vehicles and caused more than $21,000 in damage.
“While racial identity and age are not appropriate grounds for departures [from the Minnesota Sentencing Guidelines], proposed resolutions should consider the person charged as a whole person, including their racial identity and age,” a memo
An Illinois state legislator is pushing to move the United States Department of Agriculture out of Washington D.C., and into the heart of farm country.
State Rep. Regan Deering, R-Decatur, has introduced House Resolution 177 urging President Donald Trump and the U.S. Congress to begin the process of relocating the USDA from Washington, D.C., to central Illinois.
Deering emphasized that crops don’t grow in a swamp, they grow in the fertile plains of central Illinois. She added that it's time the government relocated the USDA to a place where people are focused on planting crops, not just pushing paper.
“Bloomington and Decatur are home to major agribusiness giants like Archer-Daniels-Midland, Gromiant, Gromark and

Former Vice President Kamala Harris wants to propel herself back into the national political conversation, as former aides are teasing an upcoming major speech criticizing President Donald Trump. The failed presidential candidate will deliver the keynote speech at the Emerge 20th anniversary gala at the Palace Hotel in San Francisco on Wednesday at 10 p.m. ET.
The speech will be live-streamed, according to the organizer Emerge, a Democratic group that recruits and trains women to run for public office. It's a major fundraiser as tickets cost up to $50,000 for a sponsor. But the group is also charging $25 per virtual watch. Harris is expected to deliver a 'call to action,'
Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-Va.) announced Monday that he will step out of the top Democratic seat on the powerful Oversight and Government Reform Committee, citing the return of the esophagus cancer he’s been battling since late last year.
Connolly said he will also be leaving Congress at the end of the term, his ninth serving Northern Virginia in the House.
“The sun is setting on my time in public service, and this will be my last term in Congress. I will be stepping back as Ranking Member of the Oversight Committee soon,” Connolly said in a statement addressing his constituents.
