Why Dems’ Rage Doesn’t Matter
Posted By: ladydawgfan, 5/15/2025 3:07:36 PM
What happened in Congress this week wasn’t oversight—it was an embarrassment. It was a living, breathing, live-streamed example of why Americans are fed up with the political class, and why the people are rallying around leaders who actually fight for them. You’d think when a sitting Cabinet Secretary shows up to testify before Congress—especially one fighting for better healthcare access—you might get a serious, substantive conversation. But you’d be wrong. Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. showed up prepared to discuss budgets, programs, and patient care. Instead, he was met with a political drive-by by Sen. Patty Murray,

East trip, Dems admit 0 replies
ABU DHABI — President Trump’s show-stopping trip to the Middle East — complete with lavish welcomes, diplomatic breakthroughs and business deals worth an estimated $2 trillion — have left even Democrats favorably comparing him to former President Joe Biden, whose fading cognitive abilities and lack of “stamina” are being blamed for preventing similar accomplishments.
“It’s amazing what can be accomplished when the president isn’t f–king brain dead,” a senior congressional Democratic aide told The Post Thursday.
“This whole Middle East trip shows [that] for a lot of these negotiations, you do really need somebody who has that energy and level-headedness,” one high-ranking Biden White House aide confided.
The Secret Service is investigating after ex-FBI Director James Comey posted an Instagram photo of seashells arranged to make the numbers "86 47" — a message that White House officials swiftly condemned as an attempt to put out a "hit" against the 47th president.
Comey later deleted the post after online backlash from government officials, lawmakers and President Donald Trump’s son. Trump has faced two assassination attempts — one of which resulted in him being shot and a bystander being killed — in the past year.
The post including the alleged "hit" showed the numbers in question etched into the sand at a beach using seashells.
First daughter Tiffany Trump, 31, and her husband, Michael Boulos, welcomed a baby boy on Thursday.
“Welcome to the world our sweet baby boy, Alexander Trump Boulos. We love you beyond words! Thank you for coming into our lives!” Tiffany Trump posted to X, along with a photo of the infant’s foot. [Tweet]
Tiffany Trump is the daughter of President Donald Trump and his ex-wife Marla Maples. Tiffany’s baby boy is President Trump’s 11th grandchild.
Throughout her pregnancy, Tiffany often posted pictures of her baby bump.
“We are so excited to meet our baby boy soon!” she posted to X on April 9.
New Jersey rocker Bruce Springsteen, who campaigned for Kamala Harris in 2024 and for every Democrat presidential nominee since John Kerry, had an epic show-long meltdown at the opening concert for his European tour in Manchester, England, Wednesday night over President Donald Trump’s triumphant return to the presidency.
Springsteen called Trump and his administration, “corrupt, incompetent and treasonous,” and an “unfit president and a rogue government,” among many criticisms.
Not a word by Springsteen about Trump working to bring good paying blue collar jobs back to America for the people whom Springsteen has made a career out of channeling their economic woes,
Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-NJ), during a Wednesday House Appropriations Committee hearing, used her time for questioning Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to stick it to whitey and the Trump Administration in a nasty race-baiting rant.
Coleman is one of the three Democratic congressmembers who stormed the Delaney Hall Detention Center in New Jersey last week.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, ICE bodycam footage that was released over the weekend shows Rep. LaMonica McIver verbally abusing and physically assaulting federal agents at the ICE facility in Newark, New Jersey. Rep. Bob Menendez and Newark Mayor Ras Baraka were also involved in the lawlessness.
On Wednesday, she got defiant once again

Did former FBI Director James Comey call for the assassination of President Trump?
James Comey posted a cryptic message to his Instagram account on Thursday spelled out in seashells: “86 47”
“Cool shell formation on my beach walk,” Comey said in his caption. [Instagram]
Some interpreted Comey’s cryptic message as a serious threat. [Tweets]
It is no secret that James Comey despises President Trump.
Comey was fired as FBI Director by Trump in 2017 while he was leading an investigation into the president during his first term.
Shortly after the firing, it was revealed that James Comey penned several memos stemming from nine confidential conversations he had with President Trump.
During Supreme Court oral arguments in the Trump v. CASA, Washington, and New Jersey cases, Justice Clarence Thomas delivered a surgical takedown of the legal rationale for nationwide injunctions, using just one line.
The case centers around whether lower courts can issue sweeping injunctions that block federal policies nationwide, even when only a handful of plaintiffs are before the court. Representing the United States, Solicitor General D. John Sauer argued that such broad orders violate established legal norms and Supreme Court precedent.
“We believe that the best reading of that is what you said in Trump against Hawaii,
Ed Martin, the new DOJ pardon attorney and head of the Weaponization Working Group, isn’t wasting time. This week, he announced a review of the shady “autopen” pardons Joe Biden’s team rushed through in its final days. “These deserve some scrutiny,” he said.
That’s an understatement. As PJ Media has previously reported, Biden’s White House frequently used an autopen to sign executive orders and pardons, which raised serious doubts as to whether Biden was even involved in the process.
In March, the Oversight Project dropped a bombshell memo detailing 32 instances where the Biden White House used an autopen to sign off on clemency warrants —

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.

South African refugees in clash with Trump administration 36 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.
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.”
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.
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.
Walmart to Raise Prices Because of Tariffs
23 replies
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
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.

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
On Wednesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “AC360,” Episcopal Church Presiding Bishop Sean Rowe defended the church’s migration service refusing to resettle new migrants from South Africa and stated that “if you look at this decision, this is really about people who have jumped the line.”
Rowe said, “[L]ook at the thousands of people fleeing war and violence, people who are waking up dead around the world, people who have helped our military that are being left in camps on a daily basis while white Afrikaners have been fast-tracked. You’re right. It is about need. And if you look at this decision, this is really about people who have jumped the line.
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.
