Sixteen people including three women, were arrested in the operation. Six of the males are in the U.S. illegally, Bondi said.

'I Hope You Die': Antifa Tries to Intimidate

Old Woman Leaving TPUSA Rally and Democrats

We're constantly told that "MAGA" — a catch-all term for conservatives at this point — are the most dangerous threat to the United States of America, with constant references to January 6, yet even as right-leaning Americans prove to be the most peaceful of all, the left continues to demonstrate that it's willing to threaten, intimidate, and do violence if they can get away with it.
Antifa is one of those organizations that consistently proves the left to be national antagonists, because they not only do all the foot-soldier work of the left, the left stays absolutely quiet about them, including in this instance.
Joe Biden's decision (or was it the autopen's decision?) to build an improvised pier to shuttle supplies to Gaza - effectively supplying Hamas - was a stupid idea to begin with. It was an attempt to curry favor with anti-Israel elements in the Democratic party, in American academia, and the international community by appearing to look even-handed; it was intended to succor innocent Gazans, although we saw time and again how aid intended for Gazans was confiscated by Hamas.
Now we learn that more than 60 American service members were injured in the building of this boondoggle.
The Jeffrey Epstein saga may be years in the unfolding. There are hundreds of people involved, perps and victims; some very fancy folks have been implicated, and there is the matter of protecting the victims' privacy to take into account. But the public also has a right to know what happened, and the Epstein files should be released as soon as the victims' considerations are taken into account.
In a press briefing published on C-SPAN, Attorney General Pam Bondi stated that the FBI is reviewing those files now.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is back on Capitol Hill Wednesday for more testimony before the House. Today, it's the Financial Services Committee, which includes Maxine Waters (D-CA).
The stated purpose of Wednesday's hearing is "The Annual Testimony of the Secretary of the Treasury on the State of the International Financial System," which sounds rather formal and serious in nature. It doesn't seem that it would lend itself to the all-too-frequent displays of nastiness by congressional Democrats at anyone associated with the Trump administration, but that didn't stop Waters from turning the opportunity for a cordial exchange with Bessent into one that was decidedly mean-spirited on her part,
Back in 2017, Democrats aggressively and hyperbolically opposed the Trump-GOP tax reform law. They lied about many of its components, framing it as a nightmarish 'Armageddon' that would decimate federal revenues, lining the pockets of billionaires and corporate fat cats while harming virtually everyone else. In reality, the new tax law cut taxes across every single income group, benefiting tens of millions of families and individuals. It helped businesses large and small, resulting in hiring and investments that helped the US economy take off. Unemployment plunged to the lowest levels ever recorded for various demographic groups. Wages finally surged, after years of stagnation.
The FBI and Justice Department on Wednesday announced the arrests of over 200 child sex predators in “Operation Restore Justice.”
During a press conference, FBI Director Kash Patel and Attorney General Pam Bondi discussed the recent arrests.
“If you harm our children, you will be given no sanctuary. There is no place we will not come to hunt you down. There is no place we will not look for you. And there is no cage we will not put you in should you do harm to our children,” Patel declared.
The prioritization of this administration and General Bondi has made it abundantly clear to child predators,
Jill Biden Lands a New Gig

Former first lady Jill Biden landed a new gig at a California-based think tank following her departure from public life.
The Milken Institute announced late last month that it launched a new women’s health network and Biden would serve as its chair.
“A renowned champion for women’s health, Dr. Biden will play an important role in galvanizing participation, collaboration, and shared action in the Women’s Health Network to improve women’s health and wellbeing,” the statement announcing the initiative said. “This appointment follows Dr. Biden’s leadership on the White House Initiative on Women’s Health Research, a first-of-its-kind effort that fundamentally changed how our nation approaches and funds research on women’s health.”
A federal judge in New York has become the second to rule against President Donald Trump’s invocation of the Alien Enemies Act to deport illegal immigrants.
This comes after a Trump-appointed judge in Texas issued a similar ruling.
US District Judge Alvin K. Hellerstein issued a preliminary injunction against the use of the Alien Enemies Act (AEA) to remove Venezuelan migrants suspected of being gang members without due process. The judge found that Trump’s move exceeded his statutory authority. “The Presidential Proclamation, in mandating removal without due process, contradicts the AEA.”
The court further argued that the government cannot deprive citizens or noncitizens of liberty without a proper hearing.

In his very first interview since handing his 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue housekeys to Donald Trump, the Old Man Winter of American politics, Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. — a.k.a. “one of America’s most consequential presidents” — had an awful lot to say about America, Europe, democracy, and the future of humanity.
And if you strained really hard, you could almost hear him.
Often speaking in a shaky, muffled whisper, the ex-president met with BBC reporter Nick Robinson earlier today. The date coincided with the 80th anniversary of VE Day, but most of the conversation centered around Biden’s critique of the current president, Donald Trump.
Spoiler: Biden ain’t a fan.
Another black-robed tyrant has usurped President Trump’s lawful immigration authorities in a fit of anger and arrogance.
As the Associated Press reported, U.S. District Judge Jamal Whitehead, a Biden judge from Seattle, on Monday ordered the Trump administration to admit around 12,000 refugees into America under a court order partially barring the president’s attempts to suspend the nation’s refugee admissions program. At the same time, he ignored the possibility that these refugees could pose a threat to America.
“This Court will not entertain the Government’s result-oriented rewriting of a judicial order that clearly says what it says,”
Hyrum Baquedano-Rodriguez, 26, an illegal from Honduras, had charges, including home invasion and child abduction, dropped in the blue city of Fairfax, Virginia, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has announced he is now in their custody.
According to Fox News, “Fairfax County police arrested Baquedano-Rodriguez on Nov. 9, 2021, and charged him with three counts of indecent liberties, including exposing genitals to a child and indecent exposure.”
After local authorities dropped a series of his charges, ICE stepped in and arrested Baquedano-Rodriguez, who is now in custody pending removal.

Michelle Obama says she’s back in therapy as she begins her “transition” to the “next phase” of her life.
I’m not kidding; that’s exactly what People magazine is reporting.
According to the article, during a recent appearance on Jay Shetty’s "On Purpose" podcast, Obama opened up about her current focus on mental health. She revealed that after years in the spotlight — including eight in the White House as first lady — she’s now turning to therapy to help guide her through this personal transition.
“At this phase of my life, I’m in therapy right now because I’m transitioning, you know?” Michelle said, according to the magazine. “I’m 60 years old,
Trump’s plan for Alcatraz is absolute genius

Donald Trump has announced that he’s reopening Alcatraz as a federal prison for the worst of the worst in America. I couldn’t be more delighted, because it’s a wonderful idea at both practical and symbolic levels.
Trump made the announcement on Truth Social:It’s to be hoped that many of the new residents will be the same Tren de Aragua and MS-13 terrorists that the leftists insist remain on American soil.
The media grimly reported the news, although they hastened to add that it won’t be easy to turn the old site into a modern prison. AP is representative of this approach to reporting:
With so much going on these days — on multiple fronts — it's difficult to keep up with it all. On Tuesday alone, there were multiple cabinet secretaries testifying before Congress, President Donald Trump made multiple appearances, commenting on everything from trade to FIFA, the Houthis cried "Uncle!", and India and Pakistan appear primed to bust out into an all-out war.[Snip] But looking back over some of the key moments, one was particularly jaw-dropping: According to Bessent, over one-third of the 1.5 billion payments issued by the Treasury Department in the past year cannot be traced back to a corresponding appropriation. That's 500 million payments (not dollars

Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett of Texas appeared to hint that college graduates should be ready to “use a chair” as a weapon during a Sunday commencement address.
Crockett gave the advice to seniors graduating from Tougaloo College, a historically black college located in Jackson, Mississippi, during a roughly 20-minute speech posted on her YouTube page, according to WTJV.com. Crockett told the graduates that they should be ready to use the chairs on people who tell them they “don’t belong.” “There are going to be people that tell you that you don’t belong, and I am here to tell you over and over and over that you absolutely belong,” Crockett said.
Some cities have canceled or severely downplayed Cinco de Mayo events for fear of ICE raids and deportations.
Speaking with CNN on Monday, Chicago resident Hector Escobar, president of the Casa Puebla and Cermak Road Chamber of Commerce, said that people in his community are “very scared” of gathering in public with some even considering going back to Mexico.
“Our people are very scared,” he said. “Honestly, they’re saying they don’t want to go to work. They have to go to work because they have to feed their families. So, if they both were working, now one person is working.”
Newly elected Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney told President Donald Trump that Canada is “not for sale” during a meeting in the Oval Office on Tuesday.
Asked by a reporter about his repeated suggestions that Canada could become the United States’s 51st state, Trump said, “I still believe that, but … it takes two to tango.”
Trump suggested there would be a “lot of advantages” if Canada were to join the U.S., including a “massive tax cut” for Canadians.
“I’m a real estate developer at heart,” he said. “When you get rid of that artificially drawn line

Three GOP members of Congress are demanding answers as to why Judge James Boasberg, Chief Justice of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, keeps getting assigned to cases having to do with President Donald Trump.
Representatives Jim Jordan (R-OH), Darrell Issa (R-CA) and Chip Roy (R-TX) have sent a letter seeking answers to Angela D. Caesar, the Clerk of the Court for the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.
(snip)At issue is whether Boasberg is being assigned to Trump cases on a random basis or not.

The Supreme Court lifted a lower-court judge’s ruling that paused the administration’s ban on mentally unstable people who were uncertain of their gender. The DEI judges (Latino, Lesbian and Black) dissented.
Previously, President Trump stopped allowing transvestites to participate in military service for obvious ‘mission critical’ reasons. A lower court said that was unconstitutional and blocked the ban. The Supreme Court has ruled 6-3 that stopping psychologically unstable trans-identifying people, was within the scope of authority of the commander in chief.O(snip)a lower-court judge’s ruling that had paused the administration’s ban, concluding it was likely unconstitutional and based on distortions of limited research on the subject.
The pharmaceutical industry estimates President Donald Trump’s new drug pricing proposal could cost drug companies as much as $1 trillion over a decade, its largest trade group is telling members of Congress.
The idea, first floated last week by the White House as a way to help pay for the president’s tax cut plan, blindsided the pharmaceutical industry and has prompted a furious lobbying campaign. Specifically, the White House asked House Republicans to tie prices for medicines in the Medicaid program to lower prices foreign countries pay,
As President Donald Trump dismantles the deep state, angry Democrats desperately defend their Jan.6, 2021 Capitol riot narrative but beam with pride that they locked up so many Americans.
Mike Romano, a former federal prosecutor at the Department of Justice (DOJ) Public Integrity Section, testified last week at a hearing rehashing Jan. 6, saying he is “proud” of the prosecutions he handled, that imprisoned people present at the Capitol.“Thanks to the work of our team, the Justice Department charged more than 1,500 people with crimes and obtained criminal convictions against almost 1,300 people,” Romano said. “We ensured that the rioters would face accountability, no matter how short-lived.
