The New Liberal Hotness: Time to Burn
It All Down
Posted By: Dreadnought, 4/30/2025 12:18:11 AM
When Democrats are in power, they style themselves Dr. Jekyll; when out of power, they are Mr. Hyde. To be sure, Democrats are not immune to protests from the far left, but in the main, we get lectures about norms and lectured by politicians like Obama that "elections have consequences." When Republicans get elected--and especially when Mr. Trump managed to make his way into office-- Democrats spend an awful lot of time explaining why assassins (Luigi Mangione), riots (George Floyd riots), vandalism (Tesla terrorism), and harassment of administration officials are all good, right, and necessary. Riots and harassment become the norms of the day.

The Tennessee Highway Patrol released body camera footage of its 2022 encounter with Kilmar Abrego-Garcia, where state troopers suspected he was involved in human trafficking.
Garcia, 29, is a Salvadorian who illegally entered the United States in 2011 and in 2019 was issued a deportation order. Two previous judges concluded that Abrego-Garcia was likely affiliated with MS-13. He was deported in March and sent to the Terrorist Confinement Center (CECOT) in El Salvador. The Tennessee Highway Patrol pulled over Abrego-Garcia on November 30, 2022.

A Donald Trump-appointed federal judge in Texas ruled that the president unlawfully invoked the Alien Enemies Act and blocked the administration from quickly deporting some alleged members of a Venezuelan gang.
US District Judge Fernando Rodriguez of the Southern District of Texas said Trump had unlawfully invoked the sweeping 18th century wartime authority to speed up some deportations. His decision means Trump cannot rely on the law to detain or deport any alleged members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua within his district.

As National Security Advisor—It's Not

Former Army Special Forces officer and Republican Florida representative Mike Waltz was removed from his post as national security advisor to President Trump Thursday. The spin from the leftist media was immediately that he was fired over his role in the “Signalgate” non-scandal—but Vice President JD Vance says that’s just not so.
Waltz was almost immediately announced as the new ambassador to the United Nations, and in an interview with Fox News’ Bret Baier, Vance said that it should be considered a “promotion,” not retribution for the Signal brouhaha.
He’s done his job, the VP said:
Trump administration National Security Advisor Mike Waltz and other staffers are out at the National Security Council, sources confirmed to Fox News.
Fox News confirmed Waltz and his deputy Alex Wong were fired Thursday.
Waltz, who previously served as a Florida congressman and as a decorated combat Green Beret, has come under fire from Democrats and critics since March, when the Atlantic magazine's editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg published a firsthand account of getting added to a Signal group chat with top national security leaders, including Waltz, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and CIA Director John Ratcliffe, while they discussed strikes against Yemen terrorists.
President Trump upset the Left on Tuesday morning by summarily dismissing three board members of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting appointed by President Biden. In response, CPB and the dismissed board members sued the Trump administration, insisting the CPB is a private corporation immune from such dismissals. This underlines the bizarre nature of the CPB, and how PBS and NPR tout it like an oxymoron: "A private corporation funded by the American people." The system is designed to be unaccountable to Congress or the president, to preserve their so-called "independence."
During an interview with ABC News on Tuesday, President Donald Trump said that he could tell El Salvador to return Kilmar Abrego Garcia but “I’m not the one making this decision. We have lawyers who don’t want to do this,” and “If I were the president that just wanted to do anything, I’d probably keep him right where he is.” But he would push El Salvador if he thought Abrego Garcia was a good person.
While discussing the Abrego Garcia case, ABC News Senior National Correspondent Terry Moran said, “You could get him back. There’s a phone on this desk,

A report that Amazon would display price increases due to tariffs on its goods — which the company has since denied — landed CEO Jeff Bezos a phone call from President Donald Trump on Tuesday, Breitbart News can confirm.
CNN White House reporter Alayna Treene, citing two senior White House officials speaking anonymously, reported that Trump personally called Amazon’s founder to confront him about the report. A source familiar verified to Breitbart News that there was a call between Trump and Bezos in the morning. Punchbowl News first reported on Amazon’s alleged plan “to showcase how much tariffs were contributing to the price of goods sold on their platform.”
During an interview with ABC News on Tuesday, President Donald Trump said that DOGE has saved a lot of money and he doesn’t think that the department has moved too quickly and without enough caution but he has had to undo some of the cuts made by the agency and “There are things that I’m considering, right now, putting back. But overall, we’ve saved hundreds of billions of dollars.”
ABC News Senior National Correspondent Terry Moran asked, “Elon Musk and DOGE, everyone knows that there’s wasteful government spending, it’s really important. But the cuts have had some serious consequences. There have been cuts to foreign aid programs that save lives

Pierre Poilievre Exits Stage Right

The stunning collapse of the Conservative Party's lead in the polls has led to this: The Liberals, having replaced Justin Trudeau with Mark Carney as their leader, are on the cusp of attaining an outright majority in the Canadian Parliament.
That sucks.
Before Trudeau bowed out of leadership and his role as Prime Minister, the Conservative Party looked set to cruise to victory. Canada was well and truly tired of the effete Trudeau, who, whether he truly is the son of Fidel Castro or not, certainly exhibited authoritarian tendencies. His antics no longer entertained, so he was rushed out the door.
The Trump administration is investigating Harvard University and the Harvard Law Review for alleged racial discrimination in violation of civil rights law.
The Departments of Education and Health and Human Services announced investigations Monday following an explosive Washington Free Beacon story last week that revealed a pattern of apparent racial discrimination at the Harvard Law Review.
The Free Beacon’s reporting — based on internal documents over a period lasting more than four years — chronicled how diversity, equity, and inclusion ideology became central to the Harvard Law Review‘s membership and to articles throughout the editorial process.

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,”

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,

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
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.”
Host Amy Hockert asked, “A lot of people read in the headlines in the last couple of weeks, the last week or so, this judge in Wisconsin who was arrested and then charged with obstructing an immigration operation at a courthouse. Would you
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

Tariff Authority Fails Despite Three Republicans
In Support 19 replies
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?”
