Ending Taxpayer-Funded Lawyers for Migrants
Posted By: ConservativeYankee, 4/30/2025 3:10:30 PM
American taxpayers must continue funding attorneys for Unaccompanied Alien Children (UACs) facing deportation, United States District Judge Araceli Martinez Olguin has ruled. Olguin, born in Mexico City, Mexico, and appointed to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, has issued a nationwide injunction blocking President Donald Trump from ending taxpayer funds being used to pay for lawyers for UACs. The Trump administration had sought to get Olguin thrown off the case, revealing that she once worked as a managing attorney for one of the lead plaintiffs in the case, Community Legal Services in East Palo Alto. Attorneys for the Trump administration said Olguin’s handling of the case presents an

Elon Musk said Department of Government Efficiency staffers have no plans to take their “eye off the ball” when it comes to slashing government waste and spending as the richest man alive prepares to transition out of his role in the Trump administration.
The billionaire tech entrepreneur told Fox Host Jesse Watters that DOGE will remain a “long-term enterprise” even after his status as a special government employee ends on May 30.
“It’s a long-term enterprise because if we take our eye off the ball, the waste and fraud will come roaring back,” Musk, 53, said
The Trump administration on Thursday asked the Supreme Court to strip temporary legal protections from 350,000 Venezuelans, potentially exposing them to being deported.
The Justice Department asked the high court to put on hold a ruling from a federal judge in San Francisco that kept in place Temporary Protected Status for the Venezuelans that would have otherwise expired last month.
The status allows people already in the United States to live and work legally because their native countries are deemed unsafe for return due to natural disaster or civil strife.
A federal appeals court had earlier rejected the administration’s request.

Former presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton has sparked fresh facelift rumors after she was spotted sporting an enviably-taut visage.
The former president and secretary of state stepped out in New York City on Wednesday night after eating at Carota in the city's West Village.
Hillary, 77, looked taut faced and wrinkle free in the new pictures of the two, while Bill looked his 78 years. Bystanders cheered as they left the eatery. Her new look comes after speculation that she went under the knife before beginning her campaign for the 2016 presidency.
Journalist Edward Klein wrote in his book 'Unlikeable: The Problem with Hillary', that husband Bill had 'wanted her

to Student Charged in Assault of Israeli
Classmate: Report 11 replies
The Harvard Law Review is awarding a $65,000 fellowship meant to serve "the public interest" to Ibrahim Bharmal, the Harvard Law School student who faced criminal charges for assaulting an Israeli classmate, according to a new report.
Bharmal is one of this year's recipients of the Harvard Law Review Fellowship, Ira Stoll of The Editors reported. The program supports "recent Harvard Law School graduates"—Bharmal is set to graduate this month—with "a demonstrated interest in serving the public interest through their work and scholarship." It comes with a $65,000 stipend that funds each fellow's work "in a public-interest related role at a government agency or nonprofit organization."
Texas Dem Rep. Jasmine Crockett has been making a name for herself in recent months, but for all the wrong reasons. She mocked her home-state governor Greg Abbott’s use of a wheelchair, even though he was tragically semi-paralyzed when a tree fell on him in his 20s. She’s made racist and inflammatory remarks, even threatening Sen. Ted Cruz. She uses different accents depending on her audience. In other words, she’s “special.”
The deluded congresswoman, however, thinks she’s worthy of the top Democrat spot on the Oversight Committee, saying she’s “made for the moment.” This could set up an epic battle between far-left lawmakers, as Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez once ran for

National Public Radio (NPR) and the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) both received significantly more taxpayer funding in Fiscal Year 2023 than they had indicated on their tax returns, according to an OpenTheBooks report published Thursday.
On a tax return for the fiscal year ending in September 2023, NPR reported that it received just $40,000 from American taxpayers, which came from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CBP), a nonprofit organization that invests in public broadcasting, according to OpenTheBooks’ analysis. That amount made up just 0.04% of the $98.57 million in grants NPR received from “all parties” during that period, according to the report.
Congressional GOP lawmakers are reintroducing legislation for a savings account option meant to put fewer financial regulations on Americans. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and Rep. Diana Harshbarger, R-Tenn., will introduce the Universal Savings Account Act on Thursday.
The accounts would be similar to a Roth IRA, but there is no age minimum or other restriction to withdraw the funds without a penalty, and the growth of the funds would not be taxed.
Like a Roth IRA, the contributions themselves would face a tax, but the account could be used for any reason, not just retirement,
Some foreign truckers are reportedly quitting the industry because President Donald Trump directed deputies Monday to restart the English-language proficiency tests for foreign drivers.
One Spanish-speaking driver told CBS Miami that “it is an awful law,” and added that he has seen many truck drivers putting their trucks on sale.
“The Cuban-American community could be one of the most affected,” said a report from En.Cibercuba.com.
“It is estimated that between 20,000 and 25,000 truck drivers of Cuban origin are active in the United States, many of whom have limited proficiency in English, [and] the requirement to pass an official test could pose an additional hurdle for their job stability,”
The Justice Department accused three of the nation’s largest health insurers of paying hundreds of millions of dollars in kickbacks to brokers in exchange for steering patients into the insurers’ Medicare Advantage plans.
In a lawsuit filed in Boston federal court, the DOJ alleged that CVS Health’s Aetna, Elevance Health and Humana engaged in a vast kickback scheme with insurance brokers eHealth, GoHealth and SelectQuote from 2016 to 2021.
Medicare Advantage plans are offered by private insurers who are paid a set rate by the US government to manage healthcare for older people looking for extra benefits not covered in regular Medicare coverage.
Many Medicare beneficiaries rely on
President Trump followed through on a promise to make Ukraine pay for its military aid with the new mineral rights agreement between Washington and Kyiv, which creates a new path for the US to send weapons to the eastern European nation — without spending a single taxpayer dollar.
The agreement, inked on Wednesday after months of negotiations, created a shared investment fund to which both nations will contribute — including through oil, gas and mineral rights licenses sold in Ukraine — with the profits split 50/50.
Instead of investing money into the fund, the United States reserves the option to earn credit toward their total contribution equal to
President Donald Trump’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) carried out a first-of-its-kind sting operation across Florida by enlisting local police departments to help swiftly arrest and deport gang members and criminal illegal aliens.
Exclusive footage taken by Breitbart News gives an inside look at Operation Tidal Wave — the Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) largest single-week operation from April 21 through April 26 in the agency’s history — which utilized the 287(g) program to have local police in Florida help locate and detain illegal aliens.
Nearly 150 unauthorized workers have been accounted for among three businesses in Colorado following workplace audits, resulting in more than $8 million in fines.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said its Denver office issued a notice of intent to fine CCS Denver, Inc.; PBC Commercial Cleaning Systems, Inc.; and Green Management Denver.
The fines are a result of "widespread employment eligibility violations," ICE said.
The largest fine — $6,186,171 — went to CCS Denver after ICE discovered a 100% substantive violation rate and evidence of knowingly hiring and employing at least 87 unauthorized workers.
PBC Commercial Cleaning Systems had a 74% violation rate and at least 12 workers were hired and put to work

A high-ranking official at the U.S. State Department has pleaded guilty to stealing more than $650,000 in taxpayer money — and the media is barely covering it.
Levita Almuete Ferrer, 64, of Montgomery Village, Maryland — also known by her alias Levita Brezovic — admitted in federal court today to looting $657,347.50 from the State Department over a two-year span while working as a Senior Budget Analyst in the Office of the Chief of Protocol.
According to the DOJ, Ferrer wielded her signature authority like a blank checkbook, issuing 63 fraudulent checks between March 2022 and April 2024 — 60 to herself,
Former vice presidential nominee Gov. Tim Walz, D-Minn., continued a self-described “listening tour” across the country at a Harvard Kennedy School forum on Monday night, ruling out a 2028 presidential bid and revealing why former Vice President Kamala Harris chose him as her running mate.
Walz said Harris chose him, in part, because, “I could code talk to White guys watching football, fixing their truck” and “put them at ease.” The Minnesota governor described himself as the “permission structure” for White men from rural America to vote for Democrats.
It seems Bill Belichick’s girlfriend Jordon Hudson’s controversial actions have led to a costly setback for the North Carolina Tar Heels football program.
Despite being praised by Colin Cowherd as 73-year-old Belichick's "PR director" following a questionable CBS News Sunday Morning interview, Hudson’s behavior has had far-reaching consequences. The 24-year-old played a key role in derailing the Tar Heels' opportunity to feature in the popular NFL docuseries Hard Knocks.
Influencer Valentina Gomez probably won’t be asked to attend next year’s Texas Muslim Capitol Day.
On Tuesday, Raw Story reported that Gomez attended this year’s event, and she posted footage to social media platform X of herself taking to the podium while ripping of a hijab and addressing a crowd of Muslims.
Gomez included the caption, “Islam has no place in Texas. Help me to Congress so we can end the Islamization of America. I only fear God.” Speaking into the microphone, Gomez unleashed on the crowd, telling them that “Islam is the religion of rape, incest, and pedophilia where they bow down to a stupid rock and a false prophet.”
Pope Francis, Bishop of Rome, and head of the Roman Catholic Church died Easter Monday morning and his funeral was attended by thousands of mourners and a few faux Catholics like the Bidens and Nancy Pelosi.
Almost immediately after his death was announced, the media was swarmed with responses from Hollywood stars and other celebrities expressing their sympathy for the passing of this ‘beloved’ pontiff. Many other Catholics, conservative and fundamentalist, more likely silently thought, Ding, Dong, the pope is dead.” I, myself, do not believe that Pope Francis was an evil man,

During an interview with Fox 9 Minneapolis-St. Paul on Tuesday, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey (D) responded to a question on whether he would support actions like those taken in the case of Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan by stating that while he doesn’t know all of the details of the Dugan case, “they’re not illegal aliens. They are our neighbors. We care about them. We love them.”

Tariff Authority Fails Despite Three Republicans

Republican senators Rand Paul, Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski all voted in support of removing President Trump’s ability to impose tariffs under national security grounds. However, the overall vote failed in the Senate 49-49. The vote was mostly symbolic for the upper chamber as the House previously approved a rule to block any effort to restrict President Trump’s trade authority, and the White House would obviously veto any bill that might pass. However, the vote does showcase the Republicans who are in support of multinational corporations outsourcing jobs and manufacturing. The bill was originally created by Republican Senator Rand Paul and Democrat Senator Ron Wyden.
Nuclear energy in the United States is undergoing a revival.
FOX Business correspondent Jeff Flock, reporting Wednesday from the site of a planned Natura Resources small modular nuclear reactor in Texas, said the U.S. has a "voracious appetite for energy" that nuclear reactors can help meet.
Natura Resources, founded by Doug Robinson, is developing molten salt reactors, a type of advanced small nuclear reactor. Its molten salt research reactor at Abilene Christian University in west-central Texas is scheduled to go live in just a couple of years.
If you’re of a certain age, you remember how president Gerald Ford became the butt of national jokes for falling on a staircase. During a trip to Austria, Ford got to the bottom of the stairs exiting the airplane and tripped, falling down the last few steps. Everyone from Saturday Night Live on down to local bar comics mocked him for looking like a slapstick character out of a silent picture.
Had that been Joe Biden (and it was, during Biden’s presidency), and had the year been 2020-2024, there would have been no joking in the national press or entertainment outlets. Even noticing that Biden fell
On Wednesday’s broadcast of NewsNation’s “On Balance,” Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) argued that President Donald Trump “continued to close the border,” after President Joe Biden “used his extraordinary powers, emergency powers to close down the border and the drop in border crossings started with President Biden, dramatically.”
Host Leland Vittert said that during NewsNation’s town hall earlier in the evening, “the border almost didn’t come up because it is something that Donald Trump has solved that Joe Biden said he couldn’t do without legislation, Donald Trump did. Has that been a place that the Democrats are facing some real weakness and vulnerability?”
