The Coup Against Sen. Fetterman Is Officially Underway
Posted By: Dreadnought, 5/3/2025 3:36:57 PM
“Kindness is the beginning of cruelty.” —Frank Herbert Three years ago, the Democratic Party nominated John Fetterman to the Senate, despite his significant health problems. It wasn’t a secret: Fetterman’s brain trauma was on full display during his horrendous debate against Dr. Mehmet Oz, where he stammered, stuttered, and (repeatedly) lost his train of thought. Fetterman won anyway, beating Oz by nearly 5% points, helping the Democrats flip the only Senate seat of the 2022 midterms, giving the Donkeys control of the Senate for the first time since 2015. It was an important election — and a Faustian bargain:

Elon Musk's Starbase Becomes Its Own City

You just cannot make some things up, and this just happens to be one of those stories.
Back in 2021, X and Tesla owner Elon Musk expressed his hope that Starbase, the home of the facility where his SpaceX shoots off rockets into Texas skies, would become its own city.
Now, it appears that's exactly what's about to happen, after an election on incorporation was held in Cameron County, Texas, on Saturday: The city at the southern tip of Texas near the Mexico border is only about 1.5 square miles (3.9 square kilometers), crisscrossed by a few roads and dappled with airstream trailers and modest midcentury homes.

Former Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva revealed that he was leaving the Democrat Party, after being a registered Democrat for more than 40 years, and joining the Republican Party.
“As of today, I’m leaving the party of paid protests, purple hair, and pronouns, and joining the party of faith, family, and freedom,” Villanueva said in a video posted to X.
Breitbart News previously reported that Villanueva, a former Democrat who was elected to serve as the sheriff of Los Angeles County in 2018, lost his re-election campaign in November 2022 to Robert Luna, the former police chief of Long Beach.
Sometimes, Trump is just playin' around.
And when he does, the left has a cow -- and then he kicks back and enjoys it.
You'd think they'd know enough not to take the bait by now ... but they don't.
So now we have this: ... which is pretty funny.
It was obviously keying off pope portraits from centuries past, such as Diego Velazquez's Pope Innocent X, circa 1650: Or Jacques-Louis David's Pope Pius VII, from 1805: It also reminds me of what his ally, President Nayyib Bukele once did, posting a pic of himself dressed in some grand and heroic costume around the time when he was trolling as

I was in the room when Warren Buffett said he would step down as CEO at the end of this year, marking the end of a remarkable tenure that has lasted nearly six decades.
The legendary investor and Berkshire Hathaway boss made the surprise announcement in the closing minutes of a nearly five-hour-long Q&A on Saturday at his company's annual meeting in Omaha.
The packed stadium was stunned into silence. The longest-serving S&P 500 CEO, who took the top job in 1970 and built Berkshire from a failing textile company into a $1 trillion company known around the world, was stepping down.
A panel of black voters spoke with CNN political analyst Van Jones and thoroughly eviscerated any theories about there being some regret when it comes to Trump supporters.
The three individuals, each defined as not supporting the President before ultimately voting for him, had little hesitation when Jones asked if they were currently having second thoughts.
Their comments show the media's coverage of 'buyer's regret' has been little more than wishcasting on their part.
Jones presented each individual with a simple 'yes or no' question: Would you vote for Trump all over again?
Washington — A federal judge ruled Friday that President Trump's executive order targeting the law firm Perkins Coie is unconstitutional and permanently blocked the administration from enforcing it.
In a 102-page decision, U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell ruled in favor of the firm and said Mr. Trump's directive that sought to punish it sent the message that "lawyers must stick to the party line, or else." "Using the powers of the federal government to target lawyers for their representation of clients and avowed progressive employment policies in an overt attempt to suppress and punish certain viewpoints, however, is contrary to the Constitution, which requires that the government respond to dissenting

Military Budget, 23 Percent Cut to Non-Defense Spending 12 replies
The Trump White House’s fiscal year 2026 budget proposal calls for boosting the U.S. military budget to $1 trillion and increasing funding on immigration enforcement, while cutting $163 billion in spending across the State Department, Department of Education, and Environmental Protection Agency, among other agencies.
The White House’s budget request raises military spending by 13 percent and Department of Homeland Security appropriations by nearly 65 percent to address defense and border security priorities, according to a White House outline of the funding request.

U.S. stocks moved sharply higher Friday following a better than expected April jobs report. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 612 points, or 1.5%. The S&P 500 gained 1.6% to extend its recent winning streak, and the Nasdaq added 1.8% following a spate of Big Tech earnings this week.
President Donald Trump took to Truth Social following the jobs report, renewing his frequent calls for Fed Chair Jerome Powell to lower interest rates. “Just like I said, and we’re only in a TRANSITION STAGE, just getting started!!!” he said. “Consumers have been waiting for years to see pricing come down. NO INFLATION, THE FED SHOULD LOWER ITS RATE!!!”
The Trump administration is reportedly feeling good after a better-than-expected April jobs report, as Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer claims this marks the beginning of a new golden age.
"With President Trump at the helm, I'm telling you, he mentioned to the American people over and over again that the golden age was coming. I will tell you, the golden age is here," the secretary said on "Varney & Co." Friday.
"This is another great jobs report, exactly what the market expected, better than expected. And I couldn't be more honored to serve under the president with these jobs numbers,"
President Donald Trump announced Friday that he will be revoking Harvard University’s tax-exempt status, a significant escalation in the administration’s ongoing campaign against the Ivy League’s crown jewel.
“We are going to be taking away Harvard’s Tax Exempt Status. It’s what they deserve!” Trump posted on Truth Social.
Trump did not offer specifics on the plan for removing Harvard’s tax exemption. Harvard is a nonprofit institution because of its educational mission, granting it access to certain tax benefits and deductions. Its endowment is $53.2 billion,
Both my parents graduated from Harvard, as did one of my siblings. At the time of his admission, my father was admitted despite his Jewish heritage because at the time, the prestigious university was as fond of admitting Jews as it is of admitting Asians today.
Harvard was WASP heaven then, and it is woke heaven now. Neither extreme is admirable, but on balance, the woke are miles worse than the WASPs. The WASPs were obsessed with protecting their social class, while the woke are convinced that the world would be a better place if only their class enemies were dead.

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) launched into a conspiracy-laden diatribe over the 2024 presidential election results, suggesting subpoena power would be necessary to discern whether foreign adversaries—with an assist from Department of Government Efficiency leader Elon Musk—stole the race for President Donald Trump. “Elon Musk has done nothing in the last five months to make me think that we shouldn’t ask questions about what the hell he was doing in 2024,” Swalwell said on a recent podcast, uncovered by Breitbart News, when asked about an alleged U.S. data leaked through Elon Musk’s Starlink services.
Michelle Obama: The Truth
20 replies
A few days ago, a clip with Michelle Obama from her podcast 'IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson' raised a few eyebrows.
Michelle says the following to an unseen individual:
"You're being a role model for dealing with a child that's transgender... That warms my heart, particularly as a black man."
Was this an inadvertent confession of what some have always claimed?
But before the word 'scandal' could be pronounced, the community notes on X revealed the facts. Michelle Obama was talking to actor Marlon Wayans, and her following is the entire question:
"And, you know, that warms my heart. Particularly as a Black man, um, you know,
Spring is in full throttle, with summer just around the corner. Around this time, events around me inevitably trigger the same two recurring questions, like clockwork, year after year after year. And the questions are these:
Why do these teenage girls' parents let them leave the house dressed like NFL cheerleaders?
Am I going to have to spend another summer weaving my car around rude bicyclists who think they own the road?
It is this second question I'm currently pondering, as I witnessed earlier in the day some poor sap driving a car, stuck behind a gaggle of inconsiderate male bicyclists (the rude ones are always men),

A California railroad executive stole public funds and built a lavish apartment inside a historic train station where he lived while working eighty hours each week.
Joseph Navarro was found guilty of using $42,000 to create his own private living space inside the Burlingame train station, 16 miles south of San Francisco, the San Mateo County District Attorney announced Thursday.
Navarro, the former deputy director at Caltrain, furnished the private pad with a bedroom, living room and gym.The 67-year-old conspired with former station manager and TASI worker Seth Worden to approve building expenses to convert a part of the historic building into a dwelling, under the guise of an office remodel.

The calls for violence are growing louder and louder by the day. The agitators are calling for the assassination of public figures and elected officials; they are calling for acts of insurrection by federal and local law enforcement.
These are actions that would very likely prompt a second civil war, but the agitators have no thought of that, or, on the few occasions when they register that possibility, seem somehow to think that their side would win.
The people making these calls for violence are, of course, all members of the "progressive" left. Jonathan Turley recently penned an interesting piece on those people.

Rowan & Martin's "Laugh-In" was regular viewing in my home, and I grew up watching the ebullient personality and quick wit of comedienne Ruth Buzzi. One of her main characters on the show was Gladys Ormphby, the spinster who used her handbag with effective accuracy. [Video] (Snip) On Friday, Buzzi's death was announced. After her long battle with Alzheimer's, the complications from the disease finally took their toll. Buzzi was 88 years old.
Buzzi died Thursday of complications from Alzheimer’s at her home near Fort Worth, Texas, her longtime rep, Mike Eisenstadt, told The Hollywood Reporter.

Three Virginia Prison Guards In Coordinated Attack 15 replies
In yet another brutal consequence of the previous administration’s lax border policies, three Virginia correctional officers were reportedly stabbed by MS-13 gang members who are in the U.S. illegally. The attack, which took place inside a state correctional facility, underscores the growing threat posed by violent foreign nationals who slip through the cracks of a broken immigration system.
On Friday, six inmates—five of them confirmed members of the violent MS-13 gang—launched a premeditated attack on three correctional officers at Wallens Ridge State Prison in Big Stone Gap, Virginia. According to the Virginia Department of Corrections (VADOC), the attackers are nationals of El Salvador and were in the United States illegally.

On Thursday, President Donald Trump signed an executive order defunding NPR and PBS — two taxpayer-subsidized “news” organizations that have consistently published propaganda.
The order proclaims that “Government funding of news media in this environment is not only outdated and unnecessary but corrosive to the appearance of journalistic independence.”
“At the very least, Americans have the right to expect that if their tax dollars fund public broadcasting at all, they fund only fair, accurate, unbiased, and nonpartisan news
Florida adults who received Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine were more likely to die following vaccination than Moderna COVID-19 recipients, according to a new preprint study that was co-authored by Florida’s top health official.
Dr. Joseph Ladapo, Florida’s surgeon general, and other researchers identified nearly 9.2 million Florida adults not living in institutions who received at least two doses of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine less than six weeks apart between Dec. 18, 2020, and Aug. 31, 2021.
They narrowed the group to nearly 1.5 million, half who received Pfizer’s vaccine and half who received Moderna’s(snip) to see which group had the higher risk for all-cause mortality, (snip) in the 12 months
An activist judge has ordered Florida to stop the enforcement of their recent law allowing misdemeanor charges for illegal aliens who enter Florida to evade immigration authorities. This is the showdown; a judge's order is about to be effectively defied by a major state official.
Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier will rebut a judge’s demand that his office order state law enforcement to halt enforcement of a state immigration law she ordered paused under suspicion of unconstitutionality.
The law allows for misdemeanor charges against illegal immigrants who enter Florida and hope to avoid federal immigration officials.
