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.

Yes, you did, and how many trials were held? How many people were deceived and walked through doors held open by the capitol police? How many FBI agents encouraged the crowd and how many criminals manned the lying J6 committee? Where is the murderer, Lieutenant Michael Leroy Byrd? The democrats put their worst specimens on that committee for a reason and they performed like good little weasels.

Why hasn't the new DOJ or FBI brought Michael Byrd in for questioning? Like, why did you shoot a lady who was no threat to you. Or anyone else in the area.

Here's the BIG problem. If these same prosecutors we doing the same job with the same zeal in the summer of 2020, there may have been some balance in their concept of "justice". But they DID NOT! The 2020 riots did enormous damage and the governments did almost nothing about it. The J6 gatherings, comparatively, did almost nothing. Yet, the J6 crowd HAD TO BE PROSECUTED!!! When these "Justice" Department people want credit for one sided justice, it has a really bad smell to it. I'm sorry their self images are taking a hit but they did what they did and they don't deserve a pat on the back for being the Gestapo. Further, it is VERY worrisome that at this point, KNOWING how made up many of the charges were and the criminal way in which people were incarcerated, that they don't want to admit that their actions were excessive. They STILL don't get it. Pride over their actions is NOT a winning story. If we really want justice from the Justice Department, I doubt these people could deliver it. And the costs to the people they PERSECUTED far outweighs their butt hurt at not being "appreciated".

Former prosecutor Sarah Levine is crying because people who committed misdemeanors were pardoned and are no longer locked up? A prosecutor's job is to do justice not to notch convictions and prison sentences on their belts.

Former President Joe Biden’s failed floating Gaza pier plan left 62 US personnel injured, one service member dead and caused at least $31 million in damage to military equipment, according to a scathing Pentagon watchdog report that found the Army and Navy failed to properly plan, train for, prepare for and coordinate the mission. The project, which Biden announced during his 2024 State of the Union address amid mounting protests on the left over Israel’s war against Hamas, sought to deliver humanitarian aid to the terrorist-controlled enclave —

$373M in DEI Funding at U.S. Universities

Educayshun has become mere propaganda at hundreds of American schools and universities. In fact, Defending Education has identified a staggering $373 million in DEI funding since 2016 across more than a hundred institutions of higher learning. Defending Ed investigated 130 colleges and universities across 44 states and Washington, D.C. to date, identifying 281 diversity, equity, and inclusion funds (DEI). These include scholarships and programs based around race and sexual “identity.” Defending Ed warned that, while many universities and colleges have now officially ended DEI programs under Trump administration pressure, in many cases, the programs have simply been renamed or gone underground for the time being.

Chef Geoff’s, a small chain owned by O’Donnell’s spouse Geoff Tracy, was among the handful of eateries targeted by the feds on Tuesday, FOX5 reported.

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:

Virginia Republicans are splintering over GOP Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s call for the party’s lieutenant-governor nominee to step aside — after the hopeful was accused of posting gay porn on Tumblr. Youngkin asked embattled candidate John Reid, a radio host in the Richmond area, to withdraw as the nominee upon learning of the images of naked men posted on an account using Reid’s Instagram handle last month. Reid has denied the account is his and refused to step aside — leaving party faithful scrambling to unify about six months out from the state’s bellwether 2025 off-year election. “That’s not my account,” Reid insisted after the scandal was unearthed by the Richmonder.

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,

But the Trump Administration has initiated one of the largest and most urgent federal law enforcement responses in history.

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,
