Inside the Left-Wing Operation to ‘Train’
Judges About Climate Change: Free Trips

Fuel a Secret Judge Recruitment Operation

A dark money group of left-wing environmental activists has been quietly "training" judges overseeing climate-related lawsuits, hosting them at multi-day, all-expenses-paid seminars in locales like Napa Valley and Palm Beach. Judges who attend these luxury retreats—where they are subject to indoctrination—are not required to report them in ethics disclosures. At the "Judicial Leaders in Climate Science" seminars, representatives of the activist group, the Climate Judiciary Project, present to the judges contested claims on climate and other environmental issues as settled, scientific fact. Judges who attend the seminars are also expected to make a year-long commitment to participate in CJP events, take online classes, and, perhaps most importantly, help identify and recruit

This seems counterproductive. If they went on horseback to these places and lived off the land then that would be a statement. However, I am sure they are all going to the airports in 16 ft long limos and flying first class while eating endangered species.

If judges are stupid enough to believe in Climate Change, it's no wonder we get so many goofy decisions and violent murderers are released on the sidewalk before the ink on their arrest record is dry.

Be nice if there were junkets like this for judges to train them in the U.S. Constitution and the limits of their power. You might throw in a little actual climate science so they'd know what a scam the global warming claptrap it.

Rather than members of the environmentalist cult, they would do better to read Milankovitch’s study the orbital cycles and their effects on the earth’s climate. Anyone familiar with food chains would know that reducing CO2 is not a good idea. They all depend on plants

When George Soros spends millions of dollars to elect soft-on-crime prosecutors in many of the United States’ biggest cities, much of that money ends up in the hands of a single Manhattan-based communications firm that’s boosted prosecutors’ campaigns. Campaign finance records reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon show that the PACs Soros uses to fund left-wing DA campaigns have steered millions of dollars to BerlinRosen, a PR firm that "happens to be the largest expenditure item for nearly all Soros DA campaign spending," according to the Law Enforcement Legal Defense Fund. Led by former New York Senate Democratic campaign operatives Valerie Berlin and Jonathan Rosen, the firm’s clients have included

The Department of Justice charged a Virginia man Friday for allegedly selling a stolen firearm to the ISIS-inspired Old Dominion University shooter after authorities previously caught him illegally purchasing firearms during the Biden administration but declined to prosecute. Authorities say 36-year-old Mohamed Jalloh walked into a classroom at the Virginia campus, asked if it was an ROTC class, and then began shooting, killing an instructor and injuring two students. Federal prosecutors charged 32-year-old Kenya Chapman with dealing in firearms without a license in connection with the March 12 shooting and with three counts of making false statements during firearm purchases, according to a Justice Department press release.

Last year, while the media was busy crying over Trump’s America First immigration policies, his admin was quietly making a really clever structural change to the way immigration courts operate… and oddly enough, nobody’s really talking about this. Instead of sitting around pontificating and debating policy until the cows come home, President Trump made a move to change the entire system… and a year later, we can see that it’s working. But last year the left absolutely flipped out. Reports started circulating that the Trump administration planned to deploy hundreds of military lawyers, known as JAG officers, to serve as immigration judges through the Department of Justice. Left-wingers instantly began warning

Democrats in both chambers of Congress are plotting potential investigations into companies, colleges, and even law firms that worked with the Trump administration, according to a report. Axios reported that Democrats are in the early stages of planning to use their subpoena power if they take power after the 2026 midterm elections. Sens. Adam Schiff (D-CA), Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), and Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), all of whom serve on the Senate Judiciary Committee, have been involved in the preliminary discussions, according to Axios.

The Trump EPA is moving to rescind Biden-era regulations that cracked down on the health industry’s use of ethylene oxide, a colorless gas used to sterilize 95 percent of all surgical kits and 50 percent of all medical devices used in the United States, the Washington Free Beacon has learned. The agency will issue a proposal on Friday to restore more-attainable restrictions on ethylene oxide that had been in place for decades. If finalized, it would scrap rules the Biden EPA issued in 2024 that forced the nation’s nearly 100 highly specialized medical sterilization facilities to slash ethylene oxide emissions by more than 90 percent—something that would have required them

“Islam is largely alien to American history—it certainly didn’t come into the United States on the Mayflower,” freshman Rep. Brandon Gill (R-Tex.) observed last month. Gill continued: “It’s something that we deliberately imported as a matter of immigration policy into our country.” Quite right. But who, exactly, is the “we” who implemented such a reckless—indeed, suicidal—act of mass cultural importation? It’s a frustratingly difficult question—and one we ought to be asking, especially in light of recent events. For two years after the Hamas pogrom of Oct. 7, 2023, keffiyeh-clad Muslim students did their best Hitler Youth impressions on American university campuses, clamoring to eliminate the State of Israel and “globalize the intifada”

An imam told worshippers at a Twin Cities mosque that Muslims are the “replacement” for those who once held positions of privilege in America, declaring during a sermon that “this is our moment.” Imam Abdul Malik delivered the remarks on Jan. 23 at the Dar Al-Farooq Islamic Center in Bloomington, where he urged Muslims in Minnesota to seek positions of influence across American institutions — including mayor, police chief, congressional leadership and even the presidency. “Those that are in opposition to Islam, they’re watching the growth and the development of the Muslim community, and it scares them. You know why? Not because you’re a threat. No,”

The Army is offering a fat reward for the capture of two thieves who stole drones from a base — amid fears of a possible Iranian drone strike on US soil. The Army Criminal Investigation Division is offering a $5,000 reward for info leading to the arrest of the thieves who lifted the drones from Kentucky’s Fort Campbell in November. The drones were stolen between Nov. 21 and 24, but officials didn’t reveal when they were discovered missing. The drones were Skydio X10D systems — light, long-range quadcopters used for aerial surveillance and reconnaissance.

The program will allow Big Apple travelers to shuttle via air transport from places like Manhattan to the local airports for the price of a luxury car service — after the Trump administration on Monday named New York and several other cities to be part of the air taxi tests. The Port Authority will partner with several aerospace companies to run the three-year test — in which helicopter-like air vehicles will ferry users from short runways and heliports to places such as

In January 2017, Omar began her two-year term as a member of the Minnesota House of Representatives.

Now that the Virginia General Assembly has passed what it calls “assault weapon ban” legislation, all that’s needed is for Gov. Abigail Spanberger to sign it into law, which is all but a given. Once signed, Senate Bill 749 will likely take effect as soon as July 1, 2026. The law will ban the sale, import, manufacture, purchase, and transfer of what it describes as “assault firearms,” and it will treat high-capacity magazines that can hold 15 rounds or more in the same way. It will make any violations of the law a “Class 1 misdemeanor,” which could mean up to a year in jail and a $2,500

James “God is Non-binary” Talarico believes white males have a greater responsibility to love trans kids. Rep. Talarico (D-TX) is the Democrat nominee for the United States Senate. Let me just state right here and right now that people who “love trans kids” do not — as Talarico constantly does — advocate for queering, sexualizing, chemically sterilizing, and performing irreversible “gender affirming” mutilations on them. The bottom line is this: James Transarico is a full-blown monster deliberately perverting the Christian faith to obtain power. I’ve never seen anything like this guy. He’s a demon with a baby face.

How Gov Shapiro became a squatter and

Poet Robert Frost once said that "good fences make good neighbors." He apparently never met Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, who is being sued by his neighbors for effectively squatting on their land and then seizing it to install a fence along his $830,500 private residence in suburban Philadelphia. The litigation is likely to put Shapiro in a much different light for many who think of him as a 2028 contender. The irony of the case is crushing. Shapiro opposed Trump's plan to build a wall along the southern border, declaring that he would sue before a dime of Pennsylvania money went to pay for it. He apparently adopted

Travelers nationwide are dealing with lengthy security line backups at airports due to the partial government shutdown affecting the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and, in turn, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). As the shutdown continues, the TSA is increasingly facing staffing shortages that have led to long lines at airport security checkpoints. Unfortunately, it sounds like those staffing issues are only getting worse. “Travelers are facing TSA lines of up to nearly three hours long at some major airports, causing missed flights and massive delays during peak travel,” the DHS said in a statement.

George Soros’s Open Society Foundations is funding the slavery reparations campaign against Britain. The Telegraph has the story. The Open Society Foundations (OSF), established by Hungarian investor George Soros and now led by his son, Alex Soros, has donated vast sums from its $23 billion (£17.2 billion) endowment to progressive causes. The foundation has provided hundreds of thousands of dollars to groups seeking to claim reparations from Britain for slavery and colonialism. The OSF helped to found a joint Caribbean and African campaign, and supported organisations that are now considering international litigation that could heap pressure on the British Government.

President Trump's Justice Department has been looking with a narrowed gaze at Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell. Following the president's eyes, they were specifically interested in the costly renovations of the Fed's offices. To that end, as part of an investigation being carried out by the DOJ, a grand jury has subpoenaed records having to do with those renovations. On Friday, we learned that a federal judge has quashed those subpoenas, and you'll never guess who it was.Well, what do you know.
