Trump Vows to Sue California over Newsom’s
Redistricting Push
Posted By: Dreadnought, 8/25/2025 1:25:34 PM
President Donald Trump said Monday that his Department of Justice will be filing a lawsuit to stop California Governor Gavin Newsom’s push to redraw the state’s congressional map in a way that favors Democrats. Addressing reporters during an executive order signing ceremony in the Oval Office, Trump was asked by National Review’s Audrey Fahlberg whether his administration had any role to play in fighting back against Newsom’s push to make an end-run around California’s nonpartisan redistricting commission. “Well I think I’m going to be filing a lawsuit pretty soon and I think we’re going to be very successful in it.

It may take time, but bad governance inevitably leads to bad consequences. That's a reality Democrats have been loathe to accept, as they've continued down a black hole of awful policy, whether it be economically or culturally. The bill is coming due, though.
According to a new analysis, a "ticking timebomb" is approaching in 2030, with the electoral landscape set to shift dramatically in favor of Republicans. The year is 2032. Studying the Electoral College map, a Democratic presidential candidate can no longer plan to sweep New Hampshire, Minnesota and the “blue wall” battlegrounds of Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin and win the White House.

Barrel Bad – While the GOP Is Making
‘Massive Gains’ 2 replies
CNN's resident data guru, Harry Enten, continued to report on the Democratic party's decline, noting that voter registration numbers continue to surge for the Republican party - and the resistance is about as popular as the Cracker Barrel rebrand.
Enten discussed the matter of registration amongst the parties in four key swing states with "CNN Newsroom" anchor Jessica Dean over the weekend. His conclusion was not very flattering for a Democrat party that has suffered a perpetual onslaught of bad news since their disastrous 2024 election results.
"Look, the Democratic brand right now has about the appeal with the American voter as the Cracker Barrel rebrand has with the American consumers,"
I’m not a lawyer, but I‘ve never quite understood how burning the American flag is a “free speech” issue. Lighting a flag on fire isn’t the same as giving your opinion or writing an article—it’s an action. If I took my bedsheet and lit it on fire on Fifth Avenue, I’m pretty sure a cop would be stopping by shortly.
Donald Trump is certainly no fan of flag-burning, and on Monday, he signed an executive order banning the practice. Titled PROSECUTING BURNING OF THE AMERICAN FLAG, the order vows to restore the “sanctity” of the Stars and Stripes:
My Administration will act to restore respect and sanctity to the American Flag
In the Oval Office on Monday morning, President Donald Trump hosted the vice president, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, along with White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, among others, to sign executive orders to increase security in Washington, D.C., and to push for the elimination of cashless bail nationwide. However, during the proceedings, Trump unexpectedly turned to Hegseth and advocated for the DOD to be renamed the “Department of War,” noting, "As the Department of War, we won everything, and I think we're going to have to go back to that."

Washington — Kilmar Abrego Garcia was taken into custody Monday by immigration authorities following his release from criminal custody last week, his lawyer said.
"As he was leaving the jail in Tennessee on Friday he'd been given a notice requiring him to check in at 8 a.m. this morning," Abrego Garcia's attorney, Simon Sandoval-Moshenberg said. "The notice stated that the reason was interview — clearly that was false." Sandoval-Moshenberg said Abrego Garcia had filed a new lawsuit challenging his confinement and deportation to any country
It's beginning to look like the British people have had enough. Enough illegal immigration, enough "asylum seekers" being housed in British hotels at taxpayer expense, enough no-go zones, enough grooming gangs, enough knife attacks, enough rape. They've had enough, and this weekend just past, they sure let their government know about it.
The question is, how much good will it do?

From the Times of India,
Sikh advocacy groups estimate there are approximately 150,000 to 200,000 Sikhs working in the trucking industry, with around 90% (135,000 to 180,000) being drivers. They constitute about 18% of the total truck drivers in the US and up to 40% are based in California.
This fact was buried in the 6th paragraph of a story about that Indian-national truck driver (Harjinder Singh, billed out of Stockton, CA) accused of causing three fatalities in a minivan with his truck on the Florida Turnpike earlier this month.
France summoned U.S. Ambassador Charles Kushner on Sunday after he published a scathing open letter in the Wall Street Journal to President Emmanuel Macron, accusing the French government of failing to adequately combat rising antisemitism and warning that “public statements haranguing Israel embolden extremists.”
The diplomatic confrontation escalates tensions between Washington and Paris over France’s approach to Jewish safety and Middle East policy, with Kushner’s Wall Street Journal letter — dated Monday, August 25, but released to the press late Sunday afternoon

Of South Carolina Shooting Alert Sparks Confusion 9 replies
In a strange turn of events at the University of South Carolina, a video showing a person carrying an umbrella sparked panic, with many fearing a gunman on campus. The university even issued an alert. However, social media posts suggest the confusion arose because people mistook the umbrella for a firearm. Police later confirmed there is no evidence of an active shooter, but students and staff were asked to remain sheltered until an official all-clear is given.
OSINTdefender posted a video on X, stating, “A video allegedly shows an active shooter at the University of South Carolina in Columbia,
Midterms traditionally run against the party in power in the White House.
But some important facts explain why Democrats are freaking out over the redistricting in Texas.
We previously reported on the huge shift in party registration numbers, according to a recent analysis. When Democrats have lost 2.1 million registrations and the Republicans have gained 2.4 million over the past four years, I think you can call that a "crisis" for Democrats.
Then, too, they are cratering to historic lows in approval as well. In July, they had 19 percent approval in a Quinnipiac poll, and then hit a 35-year low
A federal judge on Friday blocked the Trump administration from cutting off federal funding to dozens of "sanctuary" cities and counties — covering several of the largest cities in the U.S. The judge had previously ruled in April that it was unconstitutional for President Trump to freeze funding for local governments that limit their cooperation with Immigration and Customs Enforcement — commonly known as sanctuary cities. That ruling applied to more than a dozen cities and counties that had sued the Trump

Calvinball! Biden’s DEI pick accuses

fellow SCOTUS justices of being in the
bag for Trump 31 replies
Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson invoked a popular comic strip in an angry dissent, accusing her colleagues of being in the bag for President Donald J. Trump.
The left-winger who was appointed by disgraced former President Joe Biden to fulfill his pledge to put a black woman on the SCOTUS has repeatedly shown that she lacks the intellect and temperament for the job with her emotional antics.
Not that another example was needed, but Jackson served it up anyway, describing the court’s latest overruling of an activist lower court judge who blocked the ending of DEI-based grants at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) as “Calvinball.”
The headline read: “If We Really Did Have a ‘Creator,’ He Certainly Wouldn’t Have Been Very intelligent.”
Say what?!
The headline -- and story -- were on a site called The Daily Galaxy, of which I know nothing. But the piece and its banner were spawned by a remark Neil deGrasse Tyson made during one of his many public talks/interviews. At one point, Tyson actually stated, “If we had a creator, I’d have to say that the creator is pretty stupid.”
Unlike Neil deGrasse Tyson Himself, of course. I mean, he’s brilliant.
Tyson also magnanimously stated: “I have no problems, if as we probe the origins of things, we bump up
President Trump went on a late-night attack against NBC and ABC News on Sunday, deriding them for what, in his view, was "biased" coverage and said he would be in favor of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) revoking their licenses. The Republican president said the news outlets had given him negative coverage on "97%" of stories. It wasn’t clear from where Trump was citing the "97%" figure. A study released earlier this year by the conservative media watchdog group, Media Research Center (MRC), found that coverage of the president’s first 100 days in office was "92% negative."
We learn the lesson as children that we are the company we keep — and this holds true for politicians seeking power over us.

One Year Ago Today I Ruined My Life

One year ago today, on August 24th, 2024, I was freshly back from three days at the Democratic National Convention. I’d worked in politics nearly half my life, starting out as an intern on Barack Obama’s campaign when I was only seventeen years old, then as a field organizer for Hillary Clinton’s campaign. Before Obama won the primary in 2008, I was an alternate delegate for Hillary in Kansas’ third congressional district, one of the youngest ever in the state of Kansas.
Representative Al Green, who has served Texas’s 9th Congressional District since 2005, will finally leave office.
The Texas Legislature, led by Republicans, passed a legal redrawing of congressional maps that effectively eliminates District 9. Green, best known not for legislation but for shouting down President Trump during his address to Congress in March 2025, will be removed from office after nearly two decades of loud, ineffective, and divisive politics.
Unsurprisingly, Rep. Al Green called the redistricting racist. But the only racial injustice here is the Democrat Party’s decades-long abuse of district lines to cling to power.

Inflation may have moderated, and the economy is showing signs of healthy growth, but the public remains deeply concerned about both, according to the latest I&I/TIPP poll.
The poll found that fully 80% of those surveyed by I&I/TIPP say they are either “very” (45%) or “somewhat” (35%) concerned about inflation. Just 17% say they are not concerned. That’s despite the fact that inflation has averaged just 2.6% this year – which is significantly lower than any year under the Biden administration – and came in lower than expected in July.
And while the economy grew a healthy 3% in the second quarter –

Videos of the nation’s capital being swept clean of homeless encampments in just one week may have Californians adding Washington, DC, to the unofficial list of top-10 U-Haul destinations.
In Los Angeles, the problem of tent encampments has persisted for almost 20 years.
They began to pop up after city officials settled an American Civil Liberties Union lawsuit in 2007 by agreeing to stop enforcing a ban on sitting, lying or sleeping on the sidewalk.
More lawsuits, settlements and court rulings led to the entire city and much of the state becoming the site of homeless encampments on sidewalks, streets, freeway embankments, overpasses, underpasses, median strips, parks, parking lots, public plazas, beaches,
