In the opening three months of President Trump’s ambitious “flood the zone” second term, we have witnessed activist federal courts issue a tsunami of national injunctions against the executive branch. Rep. Bob Onder, R-Mo., recently described the third branch’s overzealous blocking of Trump’s executive orders as a “judicial coup d’etat.” [Snip] Over the Easter Weekend, a courage-deficient, seven-justice Supreme Court issued what dissenting Justice Samuel Alito described as a “middle of the night” ruling temporarily blocking the Trump administration from deporting Venezuelan illegal immigrants under the Alien Enemies Act of 1798.
In 2018, Eugenio Scalfari reported the words that Bergoglio supposedly confided to him about his vision of the afterlife: “Sinful souls are not punished: those who repent obtain God’s forgiveness and join the ranks of souls who contemplate him, but those who do not repent and cannot therefore be forgiven disappear. There is no hell, sinful souls simply disappear”. These heretical ravings are directly opposed to the Catholic Faith, which teaches us that there is a particular Judgment for everyone, which Bergoglio could not escape. His soul has therefore not disappeared, nor has it dissolved: he will have to account for the crimes he has committed,...

The top Democrat on the Senate Homeland Security Committee demanded answers from the Trump administration over potentially stranded American travelers once REAL ID requirements take effect May 7.

Time to stamp out the post office

Better buy your “Forever” stamps now, because the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) has announced another price increase. [Snip] I recently sent a book from one major East Coast city to another. ...by media mail, the cheapest rate. ...it took 11 days. ...the book sat in the originating post office for a week before moving. [Snip] A major contributor to the rising prices of stamps is the postal service’s obligation to its retirees. ...“The (USPS) faces substantial pension obligations, with unfunded liabilities totaling $409 billion against just $290 billion in assets. This is largely due to a system where USPS is responsible for its own retirement funding,...

In Mississippi, state auditor Shad White,...has been hard at work against state government bloat, and what he has found is enlightening.

Lorain’s industrial roots date back to the hulking steel mills,...American Ship Building Co. at the mouth of the Black River, Thew Shovel,...Ford Motor Co.'s Lorain Assembly Plant and countless other industries that employed hundreds of thousands of International City residents throughout the years. Many of those former industrial sites remain vacant brownfields today, or await a second life in redevelopment--something Khanna hopes to spur through modern manufacturing.
There is a cancer in America’s military ranks, and it must be expunged before it’s too late. That cancer lies in uniformed service members’ widespread rejection of the uniquely American concept of civilian control of the military and disregard for the absolute necessity that America’s military officers remain apolitical in the face of the constitutional will of the electorate. Recent events reveal this cancer,... [Snip] I have heard from some anti-Trump officers that it is acceptable for them to challenge Trump and be “disloyal” to him on political matters... [Snip] The trends we are seeing feel dangerously close to an embrace of 1970s South American-style military juntas.

When President Donald Trump honored the Christian celebration of Holy Week before Easter, he took a striking stand against the spiritual atrophy consuming much of Western civilization. Meanwhile, the United Kingdom’s leaders celebrated a pagan holiday instead of Palm Sunday. [Snip] But in the United Kingdom, King Charles III--the head of the Church of England, and “defender of the faith”--apparently failed to even issue a statement for Holy Week or Palm Sunday, according to a search of his social media pages... [Snip] While King Charles III neglected Christianity, Trump asked for God to pour out the blessings of divine providence upon America.
Donald Trump Jr. and Lara Trump have reached a deal with Salem Media that will make the pair of Trump family members a major part of the company’s strategic growth and content offerings moving forward, the network announced on Monday. [Snip]
Trump Jr. will become a key stakeholder of Salem and a strategic force behind its future,... [Snip] Trump Jr. in a statement of his own said Salem is “positioned to become the home for fearless, unapologetic conservative content,” while Lara Trump said she “believes in what Salem is building, and I’m proud to contribute content that speaks truth without apology and builds real cultural influence.”
President Donald Trump issued a Palm Sunday message at the start of Holy Week renewing his administration's promise "to defend the Christian faith in our schools, military, workplaces, hospitals, and halls of government." [Snip] "As we focus on Christ’s redeeming sacrifice, we look to His love, humility, and obedience--even in life’s most difficult and uncertain moments,"... "This week, we pray for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon our beloved Nation. ...that America will remain a beacon of faith, hope, and freedom for the entire world, and we pray to achieve a future that reflects the truth, beauty, and goodness of Christ’s eternal kingdom in Heaven."
President Donald Trump signed a memorandum authorizing a “military mission for sealing the southern border of the United States and repelling invasions,” giving the U.S. military the ability to occupy public land along the border in order to secure it. [Snip] Invoking a day-one proclamation from Trump declaring a national emergency at the southern border, the memo says the Secretary of the Interior must “provide for” the Defense Department’s “utilization of public lands,” specifically including “portions of the Roosevelt Reservation”--a strip of land that reaches from California to Texas designated for border security in 1907. The directive excludes Federal Indian Reservations.

We Have No Idea Where This War Will Go

After days of publicly mulling whether to join Israel in its military campaign against Iran, President Trump directed the U.S. military on Saturday to execute a complex attack on three of the nation’s nuclear sites with several American warplanes and submarines. Hours later, Mr. Trump declared the mission a “spectacular military success,” saying during a national address from the White House that U.S. forces had “completely and totally obliterated,” Iran’s nuclear program. “There’s no military in the world that could have done what we did tonight, not even close,” he said, standing in front of Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
Jasmine Crockett’s latest tone-deaf outrage proves once again that some Democrats care more about political posturing than national security. Instead of applauding President Donald Trump’s decisive strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities, a move that will protect American lives and interests, Crockett is mad that Trump didn’t “holla” at her first to ask for permission.
Just hours after President Trump accomplished what no other leader dared—crippling Iran’s nuclear program—Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) took to social media in a tirade, fuming that the president didn’t ask for her “permission” to carry out the strike. She failed to acknowledge that the mission was deliberately kept under tight wraps, known only to a select group
President Trump caught the world off-guard Saturday by bombing three Iranian nuclear sites — after his apparently strategic deception indicating that such strikes weren’t imminent and trickery with the deployment of US Air Force B-2 bombers.
Trump said Thursday he would make a decision in the “next two weeks” to allow more time for negotiations, giving the sense of reprieve amid fevered speculation he might join Israel’s airstrikes.
“Based on the fact that there’s a substantial chance of negotiations that may or may not take place with Iran in the near future, I will make my decision whether or not to go within the next two weeks,”
Democrats in Washington are again talking impeachment. Politicians and pundits are expressing outrage over President Donald Trump attacking Iran without a prior authorization of Congress. It is the Claude Rains School of Constitutional Law where politicians are "shocked, shocked" that Trump is using the authority that they accepted in Democratic predecessors. Fourteen years ago this week, I was in court litigating that very issue when President Barack Obama attacked Libya. Most Democrats supported or were silent on the action.

Iran’s parliament has voted to close the Strait of Hormuz, the vital shipping channel through which around 20% of the world’s daily oil flows.
The move, which could block $1 billion in oil shipments per day, is likely to send oil prices soaring.
It will come into effect pending a final decision by Iran’s Supreme Council. The Supreme Council’s decision must be made by tonight, according to Iran’s state-run Press TV.

Iran has launched its first salvo of ballistic missiles at Israel after the US military conducted airstrikes at three key Iranian nuclear facilities in the early hours of Sunday, marking a dramatic escalation in the West Asian conflict.
Iran’s state media said more than 30 ballistic missiles had been fired as sirens rang across parts of Israel, while explosions were heard in Jerusalem. The Israeli Army said it was working to intercept missiles from Iran. Israel had closed its airspace after the US strikes on Iran.
The US used six B-2 bombers to drop a dozen “bunker buster” bombs on the Fordow nuclear site in Iran, a US official told CNN.
Navy submarines fired 30 TLAM cruise missiles at two other sites, Natanz and Isfahan, and a B2 dropped two bunker busters on Natanz, the official said.
The specifics of the strikes were earlier reported by The New York Times.
“Bunker buster”: The GBU-57A/B Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP) bomb, known as a “bunker buster,” is a 30,000-pound bomb with 6,000 pounds of explosives.
The MOP was designed for “reaching and destroying our adversaries’ weapons of mass destruction located in well-protected

On Sunday morning Russia's former president and current deputy chairman of the country's Security Council Dmitry Medvedev issued his reaction to the major US overnight strike on Iran's nuclear facilities, giving what's essentially the view of where things stand from the Kremlin.
Medvedev in a ten-point list of reactions characterized the attacks as ultimately ineffective, and that it will blow back on America and Israel in a way opposite than intended, especially as Tehran will now only push harder for a nuke, and allied countries might now simply be willing to supply them to the Iranians, he described.

Think about this for a second, and I mean that: Is there anything good Democrats have added to your life? I’m not talking about “Democrats” ever – Thomas Jefferson having existed is obviously an easy net-plus for everyone’s life – but the current crop of Democrats who exist in Washington, DC, and pretty much anywhere else. The answer is no.
AOC has no legislative accomplishments, and neither do any of the other members of the goon squad sniffing around her throne. A Hakeem Jeffries speech would not pass as a proof of life video. Nancy Pelosi may be legally dead.
The United States, the Middle East and world oil markets are bracing for Iran’s response after President Donald Trump launched punishing strikes on Iranian nuclear energy sites overnight, plunging the region into an unprecedented new phase of a decades-old conflict.
The U.S. struck Iranian nuclear facilities, including the key Fordo site, with 14 GBU-57s, 30,000-pound “bunker buster bombs,” according to the U.S. military. It was the first time the United States has directly bombed the Islamic Republic. The next 48 hours are of particular concern,
Former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev has claimed that a number of countries are now prepared to supply Iran with nuclear warheads following the recent American airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities. In a series of posts on X, Medvedev said the US operation-targeting sites in Isfahan, Natanz, and Fordow - had not only failed to achieve its objective but had, in fact, produced the opposite result. Meanwhile, Iran sought support from Russia, with Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stating that he would travel to Moscow to hold talks with President Vladimir Putin.
