WATCH: Bernie Sanders: 'You Think I'm
Going to Be Sitting in a Waiting Line
at United?'

Sen. Bernie Sanders (D-Vt.) appeared on Fox News on Wednesday for an interview with anchor Bret Baier on "Special Report," and I have to say that if anyone who watched that still supports this man, you need to have your head examined. Sanders, of course, has been "fighting oligarchy" with his pal Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), aka AOC, but the problem is that a) most people don't know even what "oligarchy" is and b) Sanders reportedly spent $221,000 on private jets so he could attend those "Fighting Oligarchy" rallies.

Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) told off a reporter from The Washington Post on Thursday when she asked him a question about President Donald Trump’s plan to accept a luxury jet from Qatar.
“Can I get your reaction to Trump doubling down on accepting the $400 million jet from Qatar,” the reporter asked.
“I have zero issue with it,” he answered.
“You have zero issue with it? Do you think it raises ethics concerns or national security concerns?”
“If you’ve ever been to New York and saw the Statue of Liberty, that was a gift too,” he responded.
After the tragic mid-air military helicopter/commercial plane collision that took place near Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport in late January, the mainstream media and Democrats immediately jumped to blame President Donald Trump for the crash and the 67 people who perished, though he had barely been in office for a week.
Every airliner incident since then, they've continued to bang the "blame Trump" drum, with Sen. Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), for instance, pointing to Trump after the terrifying crash of the Delta jet that happened in mid-February at Toronto's Pearson Airport.
Schumer blamed the Trump administration's "layoffs" of what he described as "FAA safety specialists."
As we reported, the Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, fired two officials on the National Intelligence Council: Mike Collins, the acting chair of the National Intelligence Council, and his deputy, Maria Langan-Riekhof, according to senior intelligence officials.
Gabbard also moved the agency under her office so she could block any "politicization of intelligence."
The execrable former CIA head John Brennan had a meltdown when he was asked by MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace about the situation. Look at how angry he is and the wild blinking. "This whole thing just makes me livid," he ranted.
At a Senate hearing this week, Sen. Patty Murray (D-Wash.) attempted to confront Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. over the consequences of recent federal staffing cuts. Murray specifically used the story of one of her constituents who is battling stage-four cancer. But when Kennedy offered a direct path to help the woman, Murray seemed more interested in scoring political points than actually solving the problem — if the problem is even real.
Murray opened with an emotional anecdote:
It’s hard to believe that the college baseball season is already starting to wind down. We’re at the last weekend of the regular season, but postseason excitement is around the corner. Conference tournaments, regionals, super-regionals, and the College World Series will make the next five or six weeks fun.
I don’t know what kind of postseason Grand Canyon University is in for at 30-22 overall and 13-8 in Western Athletic Conference play. But one player is getting attention for his selfless actions off the field.
Senior infielder Eli Paton is batting .281 on the season and has hit nine homers, but he’s giving back
It’s been exactly one year since Joe Biden threw down the gauntlet and challenged Donald Trump to a debate. What a difference a year makes.
At the time, the Biden campaign tried to spin it as a bold, calculated move: sidestepping the traditional Presidential Debates Commission, offering instead two debates on the candidates' own terms. They wanted one in June and another in September. The left-wing media acted like this was a genius play. In reality, was the beginning of the end.
Back then, Biden’s handlers insisted their candidate was sharp and ready to go. It was, to be honest, bizarre. Biden’s public appearances were dumpster fires.
Nearly two dozen Tren de Aragua gangbangers in an ICE detention center in Texas have barricaded themselves and threatened to take hostages in a major uprising — days after migrants spelled out “SOS” in the prison yard.
Members of the Venezuelan gang threatened to hold ICE officers captive and injure them on April 26 as they barricaded the doors of their unit with their cots, covered surveillance cameras, blocked windows, and flooded the unit by clogging the toilets, according to the Department of Homeland Security.
The takeover attempt lasted “several hours,” with the detainees ignoring the orders of ICE agents.
Capitol Police on Wednesday appeared to remove Ben & Jerry’s co-founder Ben Cohen from the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions’ (HELP) hearing with Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Anti-Israel protesters disrupted Kennedy’s opening statement before the committee, in which footage showed Cohen standing up and being removed by police. Cohen spoke at a pro-Palestine press conference with Democrat Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib outside of the U.S. Capitol ahead of the hearing.
“You’re killing poor kids in Gaza and paying for it by cutting Medicaid for kids here,” Cohen said, according to an X post that he reposted himself.
So-called “influencers” are being accused of threatening the white African refugees in social media posts that are going viral for all the wrong reasons.
Apparently, it’s cool to be xenophobic again as long as the people fleeing oppression are white. At least, that’s what one might glean from the videos that have been coming out since President Donald Trump made it his administration’s priority to “promote the resettlement of Afrikaner refugees escaping government-sponsored race-based discrimination, including racially discriminatory property confiscation.”
But America may not be any safer than the violence they are fleeing if these people have their way.
Watch:
Venomous Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Mississippi) took a snarky shot at Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem during a congressional hearing on Wednesday.
Noem has been busy in her role as head of the DHS, and apparently that has rubbed some the wrong way. Thompson noted her various appearances and “costume changes” during a hearing.
Watch: [Tweet, video]
“Whatever got you here Secretary Noem, I’m glad you found time among your many photo ops and costume changes to testify about why President Trump is seeking more taxpayer dollars, and what plan to do with that money if you get it,”
Rep. Delia Ramirez (D-IL), the daughter of an illegal migrant, used a hearing today to berate Homeland Security chief Kristi Noem and demand her resignation.
“In my state, let me be clear, you are not welcome,” Ramirez told Noem before demanding her resignation. “You have betrayed the sacred fundamentals of your oath, and I believe to my core that you are not fit to hold the office,” she claimed. “And I again, to your face, demand your immediate resignation, and I put and place it on the record for all of us to see.”
Rodriquez’s mother was pregnant with her when she arrived in the United States.
Democrat Rep. Summer Lee (D-PA) is slated to introduce a reparations resolution this week, as she believes it is a “moral and legal obligation” for Americans.
The resolution itself involves the U.S. spending “trillions” on reparations for black Americans. The resolution points to Jim Crow laws as part of the justification for the use of U.S. tax dollars going toward this effort.
“This is a moment in time where societies are shaped [and] new societies are built. We should be the ones who are shaping it,” Lee said, enraged that President Donald Trump ended many diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) measures with the “stroke of a pen.”

South African refugees in clash with Trump administration 35 replies
The Episcopal Church’s migration service said it will refuse the Trump administration's request to help resettle dozens of White South Africans granted refugee status by the federal government. In a statement, Presiding Bishop Sean Rowe said the Episcopal Migration Ministries will instead terminate its partnership with the government. The announcement came shortly before 59 South Africans arrived in the United States.
"In light of our church’s steadfast commitment to racial justice and reconciliation and our historic ties with the Anglican Church of Southern Africa, we are not able to take this step," Rowe said of the government's request that the church help resettle the South African citizens.

Over the years, numerous studies, speeches and books have focused on a phenomenon known as self-sabotage. The subjects are highly successful people who throw it all away by behaving recklessly when they get to the top of the heap. Think Bill Clinton with Monica Lewinsky. Overconfidence, boredom and a notorious quest for power are among the reasons commonly identified as explanations for the destructive cycle.
Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin hinted Monday that he’s preparing to roll back one car feature that every driver “hates.”
“Start/stop technology: where your car dies at every red light so companies get a climate participation trophy,” Zeldin tweeted Monday in a post that has since racked up more than 8 million views.
“EPA approved it, and everyone hates it, so we’re fixing it.”
The feature kills internal combustion engines at red lights and has been touted by proponents for being able to conserve fuel and cut down on pollution.
Critics have questioned whether the feature can wear down the car’s battery or engine more quickly.

California Governor Gavin Newsom said Wednesday he wants the state to stop enrolling more low-income illegal immigrants in a state-funded health care program, beginning next year.
Under Newsom’s plan, the state would not end coverage for illegal immigrants who are already enrolled in Medi-Cal, the state’s Medicaid program. However, the state would begin charging adults with “unsatisfactory immigrant status” a monthly premium of $100 beginning in 2027.
Newsom’s announcement comes after the governor previously said in March he was not considering rolling back health benefits for low-income illegal immigrants, even as the state contended with a $6.2 billion Medicaid shortfall.
Walmart to Raise Prices Because of Tariffs

Walmart said Thursday it plans to raise prices on some goods beginning later this month, in response to President Trump’s tariffs.
“We will do our best to keep our prices as low as possible but given the magnitude of the tariffs, even at the reduced levels announced this week, we aren’t able to absorb all the pressure given the reality of narrow retail margins,” Walmart CEO Doug McMillon is expected to say during a Thursday earnings call, according to prepared remarks obtained by several media outlets.
The U.S. and China agreed earlier this week to lower their respective reciprocal tariffs for 90 days as they look to end a bruising trade war
Senator Tim Kaine (D-VA) said Wednesday on CNN’s “News Central” that he is advancing legislation that would force the Trump administration to produce a human rights report on El Salvador that would result in “serious consequences” if violations were found.
Kaine said, “We just want the administration to follow the law and so there is a privileged motion, which means even a single senator can file it and you’ll be guaranteed a vote that will require the administration within 30 days to produce a human rights report on El Salvador, including the conditions of the prison to which American residents are being sent
New Beard, Same Buttigieg

I wish I could locate the Twitter wit who said, during the Biden administration, that "Pete Buttigieg is so bad at being Secretary of Transportation that people actually know the name of the Secretary of Transportation." (Snip) Nothing seems to stand in the way of the unaccomplished former Indiana mayor taking another stab at his party's presidential nomination — and he's so serious about rebranding himself that he's even grown a beard.
The beard jokes write themselves, but I'm not here to take cheap shots at Buttigieg; I'm here to take high-class, data-rich cheap shots.

The case of around 50 white Afrikaner refugees from South Africa has turned the political discourse upside down. After years of never finding a migrant they didn't approve of, Democrats and their press allies are suddenly greatly offended that President Donald Trump would dare grant asylum to a statistically insignificant number of people.
On CNN, former Obama campaign official and current analyst Ashley Allison went on a racist rant, proclaiming they should go back to "Germany" if they don't like the "law of the land" of being persecuted financially and physically. Notably, Afrikaners, who migrated to South Africa some 400 years ago, aren't from Germany,
In a wide-ranging speech in the Bundestag, the German Chancellor outlined his new government's priorities, including a plan to revive Germany's struggling economy and transform it once again into a "growth locomotive." What you need to know
Germany's new chancellor, Friedrich Merz, is introducing his government's agenda to lawmakers in Germany's parliament, the Bundestag.
Elected in a historic second-round vote, he aims for swift action on growth, migration, and defense. He has also described his cabinet's lack of federal experience as a "great opportunity" for real change.
One of the most embarrassing members of Congress got completely schooled by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. after she tried to blame him for the spread of measles across the country.
As TGP readers know, the corporate media has trumpeted the number of measles cases spreading across America to smear the Trump Administration, particularly RFK Jr.
These hacks see the rise of this infamous childhood disease as an opportunity to discredit the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) agenda and create a new so-called scandal within the Trump Administration.
There are currently about 1,100 cases of the highly contagious disease in America, mostly from unvaccinated individuals
