A peaceful protest was held on Detroit Road in Avon Thursday evening as part of the “Good Trouble” protests happening around the United States. Protesters held signs that read “End corruption, end cruelty,” “Come together in peace,” among other sentiments while chanting, “Hey ho, Donald Trump has got to go.” Local party organizations including the Lorain County Democratic party hosted similar protests throughout the county.

Many Americans think President Donald Trump is being dismissive of the Jeffrey Epstein controversy. That he’s simply being cavalier. I don't read it that way. I think he’s (Snip) He has racked up amazing, unprecedented policy accomplishments and Epstein is taking all the wind out of it--not just to his detriment, but ultimately to ours. (Snip) But now people who have doggedly supported him even through tougher times are turning on him and piling on with the opportunistic Democrats who heretofore haven't given two shakes about any of this.

Investigative reporter Paul Sperry has uncovered an interesting fact about leftist mayoral candidate, Zohran Mamdani: BREAKING: Alex Soros has funneled $24 mil to the NYC mayoral campaign of Muslim Zohran Mamdani thru his fundraising arm Working Families, which means Soros' wife HUMA ABEDIN, whose parents are Muslim Brotherhood, "will control the mayor of NY," a lawyer investigating Abedin told me (Snip)
Now the Soros plan is to take mayoralties, the better to finish off cities in ways district attorneys and secretaries of state cannot. Yet they present this boob as an independent. He's a puppet on some strings.
A Muslim physician threatened to kill a Jewish congressman from Ohio, and that’s only one small part of what he did. The victim, Rep. Max Miller (R-Ohio), says that it was a “bizarre” incident, (Snip) “I’m on the freeway. I have somebody who has cut me off, who is flipping me off, who is showing me a Palestinian flag, and is yelling to kill me.” (Snip) Yet there is no chance whatsoever that Islamic antisemitism will be discussed at the trial of Feras Hamdan. His behavior will be treated as a one-off instance of a man losing control and endangering himself and someone else,
If it were me, and I’d just won a large judgment based on my claim that I experienced forceful sexual assault in a department store dressing room by an aggressive and powerful man who towers over me, an experience that caused me severe trauma after the event, I wouldn’t write a book capitalizing on one of my attackers most iconic catchprases, and I certainly wouldn’t be tweeting about him nonstop, nearly thirty years after the act at the center of my lawsuit.
CORRECTION: The mandate starting a 90-day clock for Trump to appeal the appeals court decision from last year was issued Thursday night. The appeals court last year had upheld a jury’s verdict finding Trump liable of sexually abusing and defaming writer E. Jean Carroll. An earlier story included incorrect information. - A federal appeals court on Thursday formally closed out President Trump’s appeal of a jury’s verdict finding him liable of sexually abusing and defaming writer E. Jean Carroll.
The mandate starts the 90-day clock for Trump to appeal the case to the Supreme Court.
President Donald Trump addressed the nation on Saturday night, shortly after announcing that the United States had launched strikes on three major Iranian nuclear enrichment facilities—Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan.(Snip) However, what quickly drew attention online was JD Vance’s visibly “confused” expression, which soon became the subject of memes and social media speculation. (Snip) Another wrote, “Vance doesn't look happy at all.”
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. [Snip] "Following the recommendations of the 9/11 Commission, Congress passed, and then-President George W. Bush signed, the REAL ID Act of 2005,...

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,...

'political reasons' 32 replies
Sen. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., and Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., said the public "deserves to know" whether CBS’s decision to cancel "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" on Thursday was politically motivated. "Just finished taping with Stephen Colbert who announced his show was cancelled. If Paramount and CBS ended the Late Show for political reasons, the public deserves to know. And deserves better," Schiff wrote. (Snip) Warren added, "CBS canceled Colbert’s show just Three Days after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery. America deserves to know if
On Thursday’s broadcast of CNBC’s “Squawk Box,” Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) said that the government grocery store plan from New York City mayoral candidate Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani (D) is “a new and fresh plan for New York City. But it’s been tried in other cities around the country and has had some real successes.”
Warren stated that Mamdani “said, we’ve got a problem with entire food deserts where people can’t get access to grocery stores. He said, I’d like to take a look at whether or not we can have some kind of — like we do on military bases — you have some kind of support from the city government
Six days before polls closed in the New York City mayoral primary, and hours after former Mayor Michael Bloomberg injected an extra $5 million into former Gov. Andrew Cuomo's mayoral PAC, a group of Muslim Americans began mobilizing nationwide. A few donors told ABC News they knew they couldn't match Cuomo's donors, but believed a small jolt might give Zohran Mamdani a final push in the Democratic primary. After Mamdani's upset victory over the presumed favorite, Cuomo, some of those who supported Mamdani told ABC News they felt their contributions toward his victory could forecast a rise in a larger
Alan Dershowitz, a renowned constitutional lawyer and former counsel for Jeffrey Epstein, who has been a thorn in the side of the party he votes for when it comes to all things Trump, is spilling his guts about Epstein. So let's dig through the entrails and see what he is talking about. Dershowitz claims that there is no list, which makes sense. My mother used to play the daily numbers with a bookie while working in a factory back in the 1980s. She once asked the bookie why he doesn't write down the numbers. He told her a written list could send him to jail,
With a new president in charge and the Department of Justice not looking to give Democrats anymore passes, Sen. Adam Schiff's chickens may finally be coming home to roost.
As RedState reported back in 2023, the senator claimed a Maryland home as his "primary residence" on a federally-insured loan document. By doing so, he secured a lower mortgage rate. The problem? He's a politician from Burbank, CA, who would not have been eligible to hold the elected offices he held from 2003-2025 if his primary residence were in another state. So one way or the other, it looks like Schiff lied.
The fake hit pieces by the Murdoch Family tabloids never seem to stop.
As Cristina Laila reported earlier, The Wall Street Journal published a hit piece on President Trump on Thursday night involving Jeffrey Epstein.
President Trump responded to the disgusting hit piece moments ago on Truth Social.
President Trump: The Wall Street Journal, and Rupert Murdoch, personally, were warned directly by President Donald J. Trump that the supposed letter they printed by President Trump to Epstein was a FAKE and, if they print it, they will be sued. Mr. Murdoch stated that he would take care of it but, obviously, did not have the power to do so.
Fox News Digital has uncovered damning evidence that the Obama administration deliberately “manufactured and politicized intelligence” to push the now-debunked Russia election interference narrative, despite contradictory assessments from within the intelligence community itself.According to newly declassified documents that Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard released Friday, there’s “overwhelming evidence” that Barack Obama and his national security inner circle went to work immediately after Donald Trump’s stunning 2016 victory over Hillary Clinton. Their goal? Lay the foundation for the Trump-Russia hoax that would consume the nation for years. This wasn’t a matter of bad judgment; it was a calculated operation to delegitimize Trump’s presidency before it even began.

President Donald Trump says that if the violent Immigration and Customs Enforcement riots happening across the country are discovered to have central organizers or professional backing he would designate them foreign or domestic terror organizations, similar to what he did with Mexican cartels in February.
"I would do that, and in a minute," Trump told Just the News, No Noise television show Wednesday. I would do that."
Officially designating an organization as a terrorist group in the U.S. criminalizes providing material support, freezes assets, and restricts travel for members and supporters under laws such as the PATRIOT Act.
California’s High-Speed Boondoggle
17 replies
Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy has terminated the remaining $4 billion of unspent federal funds for California’s beleaguered high-speed rail project. The move is well justified.
In 2008, California voters approved a ballot measure that would allow the state to issue up to $9.95 billion in bonds to support an ambitious plan to build a high-speed rail system. But the state has not lived up to the promises made to its own voters who approved the measure and to the federal government. When it was sold to Californians 16 years ago, state rail officials presented a business plan that envisioned a sprawling 800-mile
The Wall Street Journal’s editorial board sent a straightforward message to President Donald Trump on Wednesday.
In recent weeks, Trump has mulled over the idea of firing Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, railing against the head of the central bank that he has continued to criticize for holding interest rates at a relatively high level. According to reports, Trump on Tuesday had asked a group of House Republicans whether he should act on his threat, going as far as to pen a letter for his ousting — despite Powell being appointed by the president during his first term, and his stint wrapping up next year.But on Wednesday, the president dismissed plans

PBS and NPR face an uncertain future after the Senate voted to slash funding to the public broadcasters — leading the heads of both companies to make dire warnings about looming changes.
NPR CEO Katherine Maher gathered rattled staffers Thursday for a closed-door meeting at their Washington DC, office, shortly after the early-morning vote by the GOP-controlled Senate clawed back roughly $9 billion in spending for foreign aid, NPR and PBS.
The House has until Friday to seal their fate and send it to President Trump‘s desk, who is expected to sign the legislation.
Comments:
Empathy and compassion are at play with this issue for corn farmers as well as the health and well-being of consumers. Farming has high risks due to uncertain weather conditions and growth of crops; consumers are at risk with potentially serious health problems due to a variety of food additives such as high fructose corn syrup. Studies have indicated “HFCS can contribute to heart disease, diabetes, fatty liver disease and dyslipidemia, an abnormal level of cholesterol and other fats in the blood; ... a universal threat ...accumulating as visceral fat around organs.” Hopefully, RFKJr via HHS will intervene.
