Shutting Down the 'Fourth Branch'
Posted By: Hazymac, 12/12/2025 9:15:09 AM
During the oral argument over Trump v. Slaughter at the Supreme Court, Justice Elena Kagan got seriously exercised. “You’re asking us to destroy the structure of government!” Trump’s solicitor general, John Sauer, wisely declined to respond. She went on. “Where else have we so fundamentally altered the structure of government?” Indeed. The 1934 Humphrey’s Executor case did exactly that as the New Deal got into high gear during FDR’s reign. The Constitution defines three, not four, branches of government. Article I defines all the bits and pieces about the legislative branch. In particular, Section 8 lists the things that Congress is allowed to do. Section 9 lists a potful of things

A whistleblower claims that the Somali migrant community in Ohio is also involved in the same sort of massive social services funding fraud being uncovered day-by-day in Minnesota.
Ohio attorney Mehek Cooke says that the same sort of theft of public funding seen in Minnesota has been occurring in the Buckeye State for more than a decade, Fox News reports.
Cooke also accuses Ohio doctors of “rubber stamping” the fraud by failing to do any due diligence on those who are filing for aid.
“They’re just rubberstamping a lot of these. And then that same individual, a week later, that’s supposed to be bedridden, is all over social media,

charges as prosecutors detail disturbing allegations 2 replies
Fired Michigan football coach Sherrone Moore was arraigned in court Friday on stalking and home invasion charges days after his shocking dismissal from the Wolverines program over allegations that he had an inappropriate relationship with a staff member.
The Washtenaw County Prosecutor's Office announced the charges shortly before Moore was due to be arraigned in court. According to prosecutors, he faces a felony charge of home invasion in the third degree and two misdemeanor charges of stalking and breaking and entering without the owner’s permission. Both misdemeanor charges are classified as relating to a "domestic relationship."
During Moore’s hearing, the former football coach appeared via video conference.
In a Friday morning appearance on Fox News' Fox & Friends, Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard said the Biden administration had let more than 2,000 Afghan nationals with terrorism ties into the United States in the wake of the 2021 botched Afghanistan withdrawal. The startling number was revealed just weeks after two members of the West Virginia National Guard guarding the streets of Washington, D.C., were ambushed – one died of her injuries and the other is still in the hospital recovering – by an Afghan man who was brought to the U.S. as part of Biden's Operation Allies Welcome program. According to DNI Gabbard, however, many
With all due respect to William F. Buckley and Barry Goldwater, the modern age of American conservatism began with the presidency of Ronald Wilson Reagan, a.k.a. Ronaldus Magnus. From 1980 through the end of the decade, Reaganism and conservatism were one and the same.
But the first age of conservative broadcast media didn’t begin until 1987, with the formal abolishment of the Fairness Doctrine (one of the government’s most absurdly oxymoronic titles). Finally freed of “equal time” inequality, conservative voices suddenly found a home on the airwaves, reaching — and influencing — millions of Americans.
And its flagship format was talk radio.

Rachel Maddow has a hilarious excuse for why Kamala Harris comes across as so vapid in public: she's actually sharp and incisive behind closed doors—we just don't get to see it when the cameras are rolling.
Sure, Rachel. Sure.
Maddow, now hosting on MS NOW (the rebranded MSNBC), recently appeared on the At Our Table podcast with former DNC Chair Jaime Harrison. At one point during the interview, the conversation turned to Kamala and her nationwide book tour promoting 107 Days. What followed was Maddow's attempt to explain away Kamala’s consistently horrible public appearances by insisting there's a secret, superior version of the former vice president that only a select few
It's been interesting to watch how the intensifying throes of Trump Derangement Syndrome manifest themselves in various Democrats. Even more interesting is the fact that they see these symptoms as features, not bugs.
Sad, sad little creatures.
The Democrats and their flying monkeys in the mainstream media have made it clear that their plan to win back voters who abandoned them last year involves only resistance to President Trump. No policy. No coherent sales pitches. Just tantrums.
I should clarify: The Democrats aren't offering any policy ideas to attract American citizens who vote. They're working overtime crafting policy designed to make the lives of

Democrats have chosen to make “affordability” their theme for the 2026 midterm elections. This is ironic, since the big jump in the cost of living, around 10%, happened during the Biden administration and was the direct result of Biden administration policies. Nothing much has happened since Donald Trump took office 11 months ago; price increases have been modest, in keeping with historic levels. Some prices, like gasoline, have fallen. The problem is the big decline in the purchasing power of the dollar that we saw under Joe Biden.
Energy prices are a key element in the cost of living, since they affect the price of everything else.
Happy Friday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. (Snip) It is impossible to avoid mocking the Democrats these days. Yes, they're infuriating, but, in their most clown car-ish moments, it's important to make fun of them. The Dem clown car has a bunch of buffoonish cartoon characters pouring out of it here in 2025. When I read about them during the work days, it's as if every news source has turned into a satire site.
So much of what the United States went through when the desiccated husk of Joe Biden was playing president had a surreal, dystopian hellscape quality to it. One of the more nightmarish things we had to endure
Ms. Omar regrets nothing
12 replies
In the Cole Porter song, “Miss Otis Regrets” she’s unable to lunch today because she murdered her unfaithful lover and is about to be lynched. She’s sorry she has to stand up her date. By contrast, Ms. Omar regrets nothing because she married her brother and still has the fact-checkers standing by her. She’s not apologizing to anyone for anything.
Rather, she’s gloating. In her memoir (written with Rebecca Paley), Omar writes of me and others who have been on her case: “It didn’t work. Despite all their efforts, I kept rising. Ironically, I don’t know if I would have the widespread support I do today if I hadn’t been messed
Is “Jingle Bells” Racist?

One’s first impulse is to say: of course! Everything that Americans like is racist.
More specifically, defrocked MSNBC host Joy Reid is alleging that the song “Jingle Bells” is racist:
In the video she shared to her 1.3 million Instagram followers, a man in a Christmas sweater and Santa hat stands on the streets of Medford, Massachusetts near a plaque [that] marks the site where James Lord Pierpont is believed to have penned the song in 1850.
He takes off his hat disapprovingly and scowls at the plaque, the video caption reading “this is where a racist Confederate soldier wrote ‘Jingle Bells’ to make fun of black people, and has its origins

Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) said President Donald Trump does not “understand what it is to be an American,” boasting of his family’s military service and saying he feels “bad” for Trump’s supporters in an interview with Jim Acosta.
Speaking with the ex-CNN host during a Wednesday virtual appearance on the Jim Acosta Show, Kelly went on a rant calling Trump’s presidency a “travesty for this country.” “I don’t think Donald Trump has read the Constitution. I think he’s ignorant to it,” the left-wing senator said. “He’s ignorant to a lot. I don’t think he understands that this is the foundation of our democracy.”

What Somalis Have Done for Minnesota
27 replies
“Somali Immigrants Are Revitalizing Main Street America,” NBC News claimed. A barrage of similar stories hailed Somalis and other Muslim migrants for ‘transforming’ Middle America.
After President Trump’s criticism of Somali abuse, triggered by reporting of massive $1B plus frauds conducted by the David Horowitz Freedom Center and other conservative media outlets, the media has rushed out more of these same stories about Somali accomplishments.
But let’s look at some of the facts.
Somalis are the second largest foreign-born population in Minnesota after Mexicans. 42% of Somalis fall below the poverty line. This is far worse than the 21% poverty rate for African-Americans or any Christian African immigrant population -
Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson has a college sophomore’s understanding of the Constitution.
That is no exaggeration. In fact, it might understate the case. I have taught college sophomores whose knowledge of the Constitution’s basic principles far exceeds that of Jackson.
During oral arguments Monday in a case involving fired Federal Trade Commissioner Rebecca Slaughter, Jackson peddled two grotesque lies, one of which showcased her own unconstitutional doctrine regarding so-called “experts” in the federal bureaucracy.
President Trump Grants Tina Peters Pardon
23 replies
President Trump on Thursday granted Tina Peters a full pardon. Tina, a Gold Star Mother who is in poor health, is now serving nine years in a Colorado state prison for challenging the 2020 elections. The left wants her dead. Tina Peters has been found guilty on state charges and is serving time in a state prison, so the presidential pardon will not result in her immediate release. Last week, a magistrate judge dismissed Tina Peter’s habeas corpus petition seeking an early release from prison.
President Trump’s close friend, former schoolmate, and attorney, Peter Ticktin, recently wrote in a letter that Tina Peters has been attacked three times by other inmates.
Who Made Life In The U.S. Unaffordable?

The Democrats have decided that “affordability” is the issue that will win the next election cycle. Are they daft? The most unaffordable states and cities in the country are Democrat strongholds.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, the Democrat from New York, one of the least affordable states in the country, has told party leaders they need “to adopt a laser focus on the affordability crisis,” says Axios.
Politico noted that the “Democrats are gearing up to hammer the GOP on the issue,” then quickly jumped in to help, declaring that the “Republicans have an affordability problem.”
Will the Democrat strategy work? Not if voters get the facts,
An electric school bus burst into flames in Los Angeles on Wednesday morning, prompting a massive emergency response and shutting down a stretch of the 210 Freeway in Sylmar, authorities said.
The fire was reported around 9:20 a.m. at 11460 W. Foothill Blvd., directly under the 210 Freeway overpass in the San Fernando Valley, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department. Sky5 was over the scene as heavy flames and thick black smoke poured from the fully involved bus.
No children were on board at the time of the fire, officials said. The driver, whose age and gender have not been released, was transported to a local hospital for minor smoke inhalation.
Border Czar Tom Homan confirmed Tuesday that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is investigating allegations that Rep. Ilhan Omar’ (D-Minn.) married her brother, presumably to help him obtain US citizenship through the fraudulent marriage.
“We’re pulling the records, we’re pulling the files! We’re looking at it,” Homan told Newsmax host Rob Schmitt. “I’m running that down this week.”
The allegations were first reported by Minnesota-based investigative journalist David Steinberg in PJ Media in 2018.
As the story goes, about 35 years ago, eight-year-old Ilhan and her family fled war-torn Somalia to Kenya’s Dadaab refugee camps, where she lived from 1991 until 1995.

Anyone who has been anticipating an announcement from the U.S. military about potential permanent fallout for former servicemembers or intelligence agency staffers over the release of that "illegal orders" video by six now-national Democrat lawmakers could be one step closer to hearing some news. As many RedState readers know, among the lawmakers was Arizona's senior senator, Mark Kelly, and it was Kelly whom the Pentagon singled out for a review for "serious allegations of misconduct.” Secretary of War Pete Hegseth ordered the Navy through a memorandum in late Nov. to take a long look into it, and submit a report with their findings/recommended actions.
Rep. Haley Stevens (D-MI), who is running for Senate, filed articles of impeachment on Wednesday against Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., saying he has turned “his back on science.” Today, I formally introduced articles of impeachment against Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. RFK Jr. has turned his back on science and the safety of the American people. Michiganders cannot take another day of his chaos,” the Michigan Democrat wrote in a statement.
Andrew Nixon, a spokesman for HHS, dismissed the articles of impeachment as a political ploy.
“Secretary Kennedy remains focused on the work of improving Americans’ health and lowering costs, not on partisan political stunts,” Nixon said.
