The Supreme Court Steps Up

Original Article

We have been following the cases that address the president’s control over the executive branch under Article II of the Constitution. By statute, Congress has tried to limit the president’s powers, most notably by establishing “independent” agencies that are not fully under the president’s control. The constitutionality of such agencies has always been doubtful, but in Humphrey’s Executor v. United States, 295 U. S. 602 (1935), the Court upheld the law that said the president can remove a commissioner of the Federal Trade Commission only for cause.

The question is, is the USA two or three leftist, progressive, socialist Democrat future nominated and confirmed Justices away from a civil war?

Article II. States that “Executive power shall be vested in a President of the United States “. Does that automatically mean ALL power shall be vested? It would seem so. Otherwise separation of powers is meaningless. But the Thrre Witches seem to disagree.

Liberalism is anti Constitutional. The Constitution establishes ONE Chief Executive, the President. Further, the other branches of government have no say in the running of the Executive branch outside what is established in the Constitution. For example, the SCOTUS can make a decision that disagrees with the President. However, if the President decides to do it anyway, the court has NO power of enforcement. In addition, the Congress has no ability to make laws that impact Executive authority, even if the President at the time signs it. Why? Because the Constitution defines the President's authority and only a Constitutional amendment could change that. The only way to impact a President's authority is through removal via impeachment and conviction at trial. So who do liberals think that the courts should function as they wish? Because they have gotten away with it for decades until Trump shifted the courts to the Right and then confronted the Left's actions. The change the Left decries is one back to Constitutional government, which blocks all the illegal, anti Constitutional actions they need to use to take over the government. Trump is using the restoration of law and Presidential power to deconstruct liberalism and it is killing them.

Google to reinstate YouTube accounts banned

WASHINGTON — Google announced Tuesday it was going to reinstate YouTube accounts banned for posting then-controversial content related to the COVID-19 pandemic, according to a letter its attorneys sent to a House panel. Users, including FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino, White House counterterrorism chief Sebastian Gorka and “War Room” podcast host Steve Bannon, had all been permanently removed from the site in recent years. Those channels once flagged for “repeated violations of COVID-19” and “elections integrity” policies adhered to by Google will now be “no longer in effect,” according to a letter reviewed by The Post from Alphabet’s chief counsel to the House Judiciary Committee.

Secret Service Discovers 'Massive Hidden

Just as the United Nations was preparing to begin its annual general assembly, which will be headlined by President Donald Trump on Tuesday, the United States Secret Service discovered a "massive hidden telecom network" in New York, with startling implications. According to reports, the now-dismantled system included over 300 servers and 100,000 fake SIM cards that could have been used to overwhelm the 911 network and disable large portions of the city's cell tower network. The dismantled system consisted of over 300 SIM servers and more than 100,000 SIM cards spread within a 35-mile radius of the United Nations headquarters. Investigators say the network could have blacked out

Disney: Welcome back, Jimmy Kimmel! Sinclair: Not so fast ... The return of Jimmy Kimmel will not be a universal experience, it appears. Not long after Disney announced that they would restart his Jimmy Kimmel Live! tomorrow night, one of ABC's largest affiliate groups balked. Sinclair Broadcasting announced that they would run news programming in that slot instead: Can they do that? CBS brought on a media expert who claimed that pre-empting the show could cause a breach of contract for their network affiliation. Left unspoken, though, is who that would harm the most -- the network, or the affiliates?

President Trump signed an executive order Monday designating the shadowy, left-wing group Antifa a “domestic terrorist organization,” according to the White House. The order comes after Trump teased slapping a terror label on the radical “anti-fascist” group last week. “I hereby designate Antifa as a ‘domestic terrorist organization,’” read the president’s order. “All relevant executive departments and agencies shall utilize all applicable authorities to investigate, disrupt, and dismantle any and all illegal operations – especially those involving terrorist actions — conducted by Antifa or any person claiming to act on behalf of Antifa, or for which Antifa or any person claiming to act on behalf of Antifa provided material support,

As time continues to pass following the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk, the left is doing everything it can to obfuscate the motive of the killer. The reason for that is obvious. Tyler Robinson's ideology was not ambiguous. It was not a confusing hodgepodge of random conspiratorial positions. Why he pulled the trigger is not some grand mystery. Robinson, who is now facing capital murder charges, is a left-winger with a furry fetish and a trans-identifying boyfriend. He thought Kirk was a "fascist" who spread "hate" and thus was irredeemable. It was a political killing carried out by a person who believed he had a license to shoot

Sinclair Broadcast Group abruptly cancelled plans to air a Charlie Kirk tribute last week after the company’s local ABC affiliates received multiple violent threats — forcing the firm to move the program to YouTube just minutes before it was scheduled to begin, The Post has learned. The Baltimore-based local TV giant, which owns more than 40 ABC affiliates, yanked the Charlie Kirk tribute late Friday after it was alerted to “local threats directed at specific local ABC stations resulting from [the] ABC suspension” of late-night host Jimmy Kimmel, a source close to the situation told The Post.

The Supreme Court cleared the way for Donald Trump to fire the sole Democrat on the Federal Trade Commission, raising doubt about a long-standing precedent that has limited the president’s power over independent agencies. In its ruling, the high court set the question of whether Trump could fire the commissioners for oral arguments in December, and whether a 1935 decision, Humphrey’s Executor vs. United States, should be overruled. The court also granted a stay that will allow Trump to dismiss the commissioner in the meantime.

For months, Democrats and their allies in the media have been clinging to the idea that Donald Trump’s underwater approval ratings would somehow guarantee them a triumphant showing in the upcoming midterms. But on Monday, CNN’s own numbers-cruncher threw cold water on that narrative, reminding viewers that Trump’s poll numbers don’t magically translate into Democratic victories. CNN anchor Kate Bolduan asked Chief Data Analyst Harry Enten what the data really shows about where things stand politically. And boy, Enten didn’t sugarcoat things at all for the Democrats.

Every time I write something about our current entanglement with Venezuela lately, something else explodes just after we publish it. Sometimes literally. On Friday, I gave a little update on, among other things, how many cartel boats out of the South American country that our military has blown up and then walked away from my computer for the day, only for President Donald Trump to announce via social media that we got another one. This time, we killed three narco-terrorists.
Conflict in aftermath of Kirk killing 4 replies

 There are two epic battles going on in the wake of the assassination of Charlie Kirk. One is the battle to define Kirk. The other is the battle to define his killer. There are significant voices trying to portray Kirk as a hateful, divisive figure. At the same time, there are voices trying to portray Kirk’s alleged assassin, Tyler Robinson, as a confused, apolitical young man. In simplest terms, the point for both is to absolve Kirk’s political adversaries — Democrats, the Left, progressives, antifa, trans warriors, furries, whatever — of complicity in Kirk’s death. If Kirk was divisive and hateful,

There is a saying that exactly fits the reactions of the right and the left to Charlie Kirk's memorial service: one screen, but two movies. Over 100 million people tuned in to see at least some portion of the memorial service, and many millions more will watch clips from various speeches or the commentary around the event. A hundred thousand people, more or less, were inside the building, and tens of thousands were at the site of the event and couldn't get a seat inside. Two planeloads of White House officials attended, including the President and Vice President, both of whom spoke. The vast majority of the content focused

Death Penalty for Kirk Assassin? Bad Idea 36 replies
Posted by FlyRight 9/23/2025 4:45:22 AM Post Reply
I am not opposed to using the death penalty for specific heinous crimes. Certainly, it was warranted for Timothy McVeigh, and Charlie Kirk’s killing was indeed heinous. However, the alleged assassin is Tyler Robinson and that gives me pause, because there are thousands of Tylers out there ready to make him a martyr. This hate-filled, deluded, brainwashed community has been groomed deliberately by a Machiavellian academia since the 1960s. There was a time when public education institutions were staffed with unbiased professors and educated their students with genuine facts and encouraged independent thought. That was back then.

The Jerusalem Post reports Thunberg, who joined a previous run at the Israeli naval blockade around Gaza in June, appeared on the Global Sumud Flotilla’s website as part of its leadership committee. At least, that was until last Sunday. Now that posting has been removed. Before setting sail earlier this month, Thunberg said: “This project is part of a global uprising of people standing up…

AOC Becomes De Facto House Minority Leader 21 replies

Before last Friday’s House vote on a symbolic resolution condemning the assassination of Charlie Kirk and all forms of political violence while honoring his life, the purported leaders of the Democratic Caucus informed its members that they would support the measure. Yet, in a truly vile floor speech prior to the vote, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y) called the resolution “reckless” and claimed Kirk’s “rhetoric and beliefs were ignorant, uneducated, and sought to disenfranchise millions of Americans.” In the end, less than half of the Democrats voted for the resolution. The rest stood with AOC.

The grandson of John F. Kennedy is mulling a run for Congress in Manhattan, and he may have “a shot” at winning the Democratic primary next year, according to political observers. Jack Schlossberg, 32, is best known for his online trolling of various prominent people and unhinged social media posts. He has impersonated First Lady Melania Trump and frequently rails against his cousin, Robert Kennedy Jr, the Secretary of Health and Human Services. At one point he imitated RFK Jr.’s spasmodic dysphonia, which sometimes makes it difficult for him to speak. He is said to be eyeing Democratic Rep. Jerry Nadler’s seat on the Upper West Side

France and Saudi Arabia hope to use this year’s gathering of world leaders at the United Nations General Assembly and the increasingly horrific war in the Gaza Strip to inject new urgency into the quest for a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Those efforts include a new road map for eventual Palestinian statehood in territories Israel seized in the 1967 Mideast war, and moves by several Western countries to join a global majority in recognizing such a state before it has been established. Britain, Canada and Australia formally recognized a Palestinian state on Sunday, joining nearly 150 countries that have already done so,
