Upset About Trump’s Aggressive Deportations?
Thank A Democrat
Posted By: ConservativeYankee, 5/2/2025 9:28:05 AM
Remember when all national polls said Kamala was popular? Yeah, that’s why it’s so hard to take seriously a new CNN one showing that a majority of Americans now supposedly say the Trump administration has “gone too far … when it comes to deporting immigrants living in the United States illegally.” According to the poll, 52 percent of respondents agreed the president’s crackdown on deportations has been excessive (though in what sense, the poll doesn’t say). It’s a 7-point increase from when the question was asked in February. I’m skeptical that even a quarter of Americans (as in, actual U.S. citizens, not just whoever picked up CNN’s phone call)

Israel managed to contain one of the largest wildfires in the country’s history this week without losing any structures to the blaze — unlike California, which saw tens of thousands of structures destroyed in January. As Breitbart News reported, the fires burned near Jerusalem and consumed over 5,000 acres. However, firefighters were “miraculously” able to keep the blaze from reaching homes or structures, and no one died. One engine (pictured above) was lost, and several people suffered injuries that were treated at hospitals. The conditions in both fires were very similar: high winds, dry conditions, and brush that could easily catch fire. Drivers were evacuated on major roads
The Foundation for Government Accountability (FGA) reports that Medicaid enrollment has increased by 60% since 2012, with a significant portion of this growth driven by able-bodied adults, including those earning 138% above the poverty line. This expansion has led to concerns about the program’s sustainability and whether resources are being diverted from the most vulnerable populations.
Most of the able-bodied, including those above the poverty line, don’t work. That shouldn’t surprise anyone. If they work, they will be above the poverty line and won’t collect. They’re incentivized not to work. The system needs fixing. While 41 states, including the District of Columbia, have adopted Medicaid expansion, 19 states have not.
Legendary PGA Golfer Phil Mickelson unleashed on Chuck Schumer, calling the New York Democratic senator a “traitor” to the United States of America.
On Wednesday, Mickelson reposted footage of Schumer speaking about his opposition to Republicans’ SAVE Act, a bill that would require proof of citizenship to vote, to the social media platform X.
Schumer smugly addressed Republicans in Congress, stating, “The SAVE Act is dead on arrival.” He also assured the Senate that Democrats would not be moving forward a bill that he considered “very reminiscent of Jim Crow.” Schumer believes Republicans “want to have Jim Crow spread from one end of this country to the other.”
Teresa Earnhardt – known around these parts as the ‘Wicked Witch of NASCAR' – is up to no good yet again. I swear, you can't take your eye off this woman for one second. Not one!
Late last year, Dale Earnhardt's widow made a plan to sell 400 acres of his Mooresville farm land, and turn it into an industrial park. That's right. An industrial park! Those insufferable, disgusting-looking buildings that nobody ever, ever, goes into? Those!
Anyway, the proposal was shot down at the time, which was great news for patriots – and NASCAR fans – across the country. Done deal, right? We could all move on,
70-year-old U.S. Rep. Shri Thanedar – Detroit’s Democratic millionaire-turned-U.S. congressman – is facing a primary challenge from two Black Democrats who want to restore Black representation to Detroit.
Challenging Thanedar is not just about policy differences; it’s about representation, authenticity, and a community demanding its voice back from this incumbent who won his seat in a nine-way primary in 2022 with only 28.3% of the votes. According to the Associated Press, that victory in Detroit, as well as his re-election in 2022 – in a city that is 80% Black – left the community without Black congressional representation for the first time in over 70 years.
A Justice Department pardon attorney who was recently fired claims President Donald Trump’s pardons is depriving the government of a significant sum of money, and she’s big mad about it. Liz Oyer has been active on TikTok slamming the Trump administration over the pardons — and likely the fact that the president canned her.
In a recent video, she claimed Trump “has granted pardons that have wiped out over $1 billion in debts owed by wealthy Americans.”
When you're convicted of a financial crime, like fraud or embezzlement, the law requires you to pay back the money that you stole. It's called restitution. But the president has
Inside a Virginia courthouse, three immigration agents in plainclothes — one masked — detained a man who had just had misdemeanor assault charges dismissed. They declined to show identification or a warrant to the man, and one threatened to prosecute horrified witnesses who tried to intervene, cellphone video shows. In North Carolina, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement confirmed it arrested four people at a county courthouse, according to local media reports, prompting the sheriff to express concerns about a lack of communication from the agency as well as about disruption to court proceedings. Inside a courthouse in New Hampshire, a pair of agents tackled

The Army is planning a huge military parade in June to mark its 250th anniversary that could include over 6,600 soldiers, 150 military vehicles and 50 helicopters.
The plans were first reported by The Associated Press, which obtained the planning documents dated Tuesday and Wednesday but have not been publicly released.
Army spokesman Col. Dave Butler confirmed to the wire service about the possibility of the parade.
The Army has long planned its 250th anniversary festival on the National Mall, but the parade is a new potential element.
The anniversary is June 14, which is also President Trump's birthday and Flag Day.

Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson slammed "relentless attacks" on judges, adding that they are "designed to intimidate." Jackson didn't mention President Trump by name in her comments Thursday, but said she was addressing “the elephant in the room,” likely referring to calls for impeachment of judges by him and others amid blocks on Trump's policies, Politico reported. “The attacks are not random. They seem designed to intimidate those of us who serve in this critical capacity,” Jackson said at a judges’ conference in Puerto Rico. “The threats and harassment are attacks on our democracy, on our system of government.
Goldman Sachs has scrubbed mentions of “Black” and other references to race from its official website touting a diversity initiative amid an industrywide rollback of so-called DEI programs and increasing scrutiny from the Trump administration, according to a report.
In 2021, the Wall Street giant launched the “One Million Black Women” program in which it pledged $10 billion in investments and $100 million in philanthropy specifically aimed at supporting black women.
Goldman in recent weeks has revised promotional language for its “One Million Black Women” initiative, removing explicit references to race and reframing the program in more generic economic terms, the Wall Street Journal reported.
President Trump said Republicans should start to think about expelling Democrats who file articles of impeachment against him from Congress, railing against two members who backed a recent resolution against him.
“The Democrats are really out of control. They have lost everything, especially their minds! These Radical Left Lunatics are into the ‘Impeachment thing’ again,” Trump wrote late Thursday on Truth Social. “They have already got two ‘No Name,’ little respected Congressmen, total Whackjobs both, throwing the ‘Impeachment’ of Donald J. Trump around, for about the 20th time, even though they have no idea for what I would be Impeached.”

California governor Gavin Newsom (D.) recently awarded taxpayer funds under a state antiterrorism program to a San Diego mosque that has been linked to 9/11 hijackers and whose imam defended the Hamas attack on Israel.
Newsom, considered a top 2028 presidential contender, awarded nearly $200,000 to the Islamic Center of San Diego in March as part of a program to help religious institutions and nonprofits beef up security to protect against potential terrorist attacks, according to state records. "Today more than ever, our state stands together to support our communities. Californians deserve the right to worship, love, and gather safely, without fear of violence,"

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
The first descriptor I attached to Donald Trump, back when he took the lead in the race for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination, was “empty vessel.” He was never that.

Former President Biden and Jill Biden are sitting down for their first interview together since leaving the White House, appearing next week on “The View.”
The couple is poised to join the ABC daytime talk show next Thursday to “discuss life after [Biden’s] presidency, his legacy, Democrats’ election losses, and the current political landscape,” the network said in a Thursday statement.
Biden has been slowly stepping back into the spotlight since exiting the White House following former Vice President Kamala Harris’s loss to President Trump in November.
Last month, Biden delivered his first public address after leaving office at a conference in Chicago.
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?”
As you know, it’s very difficult to be a minority in the modern United States of America. The U.S. is widely known for being among the most hostile countries in the world for anyone who is not white, for gay people, for trans people, for religious minorities, and for all women.
Except it’s not because that’s the opposite of the truth.
It is breathtaking how American citizens who enjoy the highest standard of living and the most legal freedom in the world believe they are living in an oppressive authoritarian regime. And they really do seem to believe it. Modern feminists get dolled up in Handmaid’s Tale costumes to protest the
Several cities across Italy, Portugal, and Spain are preparing for protests on June aimed at pushing back against the effects of mass tourism, despite local economies being so reliant on foreign money coming into their cities. Organizers say the demonstrations will focus on issues such as housing shortages, environmental damage, and strained public infrastructure in areas overwhelmed by visitor traffic, according to Travel and Tour World.
The movement is being coordinated by the Southern Europe Network Against Touristification, which includes activists from Venice, Lisbon, Palermo, Barcelona, and the Canary Islands. Roughly 120 representatives met in Barcelona recently to finalize the protest plans, hoping to pressure
Canada held elections on Tuesday, and in a stunning development, Justin Trudeau's Liberal Party completed the comeback. While the conservatives did make gains compared to the last decade, left-winger Mark Carney will remain prime minister, and the bill is about to come due.
After suffering under years of Trudeau's disastrous leadership, Canadians had a chance to change course. Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre, who was the odds-on favorite to win the election just a few months ago, had promised to lift his nation out of its decline, promoting personal and economic freedom.
The choice should have been clear. Instead, the voters of Canada decided that what they needed
A teacher in Maine repeatedly called for the killing of President Trump and his supporters on social media. She admitted her Superintendent “will have to fire me” over the call to violence.
JoAnna St. Germain, an English teacher at Waterville Senior High School, took to Facebook to ask the Secret Service to “take out” the president.
“The Secret Service has the perfect opportunity, if they choose to step up and take it,” she wrote.
“You are the ones with power. Coordinate. Take out every single person who supports Trump’s illegal, immoral, unconstitutional acts. Look at the sycophants and give them what they’re asking for.
The Harry Potter franchise is one of the most iconic in cinematic history. The record-setting book series stole the hearts of many on the big screen from the years 2001-2011.
A major part of its success was the cast of characters, specifically Harry, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley. Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, and Rupert Grint as Harry, Hermione, and Ron are examples of some of the best child actor casting ever in Hollywood.
Yes, Warner Bros. Discovery officially announced on April 12 that a new Max Original is in the works, rebooting the Harry Potter franchise.
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.
