The Rutherford County Library Board in Tennessee fired its top librarian for refusing to move LBGTQ books out of the children’s section. The board voted 8-3 Monday to fire library system director Luanne James after she said she would not move more than 100 LGBTQ books from the children to the adult’s section, The Associated Press reported. The board voted earlier this month to move the books, saying they cause “gender confusion” for young children, especially those going through puberty. “Follow the law,” a Rutherford County school board member said when speaking in favor of moving the books “Protect the children. Hold the line.”

The United Nations Security Council (UNSC) is likely to hold a vote or vote on a resolution on the Strait of Hormuz as early as Friday, April 3.
"The proposed resolution will authorize member states to use "all necessary and appropriate means of defense in the Strait of Hormuz and surrounding waters, including in the territorial waters of coastal states within or bordering the Strait of Hormuz," said Bahraini Foreign Minister Abdullatif bin Rashid Al Zayani on Thursday, quoted by Antara via Sputnik-RIA Novosti.
According to him, the effort is to secure transit routes and prevent attempts to close, block, or disrupt international navigation through the Strait of Hormuz.
US Army Chief of Staff Gen. Randy George is retiring “effective immediately,” a Pentagon official announced Thursday amid reports War Secretary Pete Hegseth asked the high-ranking military officer to step down.
“The Department of War is grateful for General George’s decades of service to our nation,” Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell wrote on X.
“We wish him well in his retirement,” he added. George, 61, was nominated by former President Joe Biden and confirmed by the Senate for the Army chief of staff post in 2023. The Army chief of staff typically serves a four-year term.
Hegseth reportedly wanted someone in the role who would implement the vision he and President Trump

Were Grandma and Grandpa Nazis?
11 replies
Now, more than 80 years after the end of the Nazi dictatorship, anyone can click through millions of index cards in the US National Archives without registering, and search for the names of their own grandparents and great-grandparents. The data contains information on 6.6 million Germans who were members of the National Socialist German Workers' Party (NSDAP) until 1945, stored on more than 5,000 digitized microfilm reels.
But the records are incomplete: According to the German Historical Museum, in 1945 "one in five adult Germans was one of a total of 8.5 million party members" and thus, at least on paper, supported the fascist regime.

files release 32 replies
Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., is threatening legal action against the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) as it reportedly considers releasing potentially damaging files just weeks before he faces voters in California’s wide-open gubernatorial race. Lawyers for Swalwell sent a cease-and-desist letter to FBI Director Kash Patel, warning the bureau would violate federal privacy law if it moves ahead with releasing records regarding the congressman’s decade-old relationship with a suspected Chinese spy named Christine "Fang Fang" Fang.
"[Y]our attempt to release the file is a transparent attempt to smear him and undermine his campaign for Governor of California," Swalwell’s attorneys
An African nation is calling for Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., to be extradited after Vice President JD Vance claimed during an interview that the lawmaker committed immigration fraud. The Republic of Somaliland, a partially recognized state in the Horn of Africa, reacted in a post on X to the claim that Vance made in a podcast interview with conservative commentator Benny Johnson.
"Deportation? Please you’re just sending the princess back to her kingdom. Extradition? Say the word …" the post read.

tampons in men’s bathrooms amid state
deficit: 'Nonsense' 15 replies
Maryland Del. Kathy Szeliga, R-Baltimore County, is calling out Maryland Democrats for backing a bill that would stock tampons in men’s bathrooms in state-owned buildings — an idea she says is emblematic of Annapolis’ misplaced priorities. Szeliga said that after she was made aware of HB 941, she took to the House floor to question which public buildings would be impacted. In particular, she wanted to know if the state's professional sports facilities, such as where the Ravens and Orioles play, would be impacted. During her remarks, the GOP Maryland lawmaker also questioned language in the bill ordering "appropriately sized tampons"
On March 17, Ilya Remeslo, a blogger, lawyer and former member of the Public Chamber of the Russian Federation, posted a sensational "manifesto" entitled "Five reasons why I stopped supporting Vladimir Putin" on his Telegram channel. He said the war against Ukraine was "failing" and also criticized online censorship and the lack of freedom of speech.
Remeslo went on to argue that the Russian president had been in power for too long and was apparently planning to "remain on the throne for at least 150 years." He also described Putin's press conferences as a "circus" and concluded by saying that he was not a legitimate president: "Putin must resign
Democrats who want to defund ICE aren’t getting away with the political hostage-taking they’re using to do it.
They’re trying to hold the Transportation Security Administration’s funding hostage until their demands for weakening Immigration and Customs Enforcement are met.
That means they’re also subjecting millions of air travelers to added anxiety, and worse, as security-line wait times stretch into hours.
Useful idiots visit Cuba, right on time
4 replies
Leftists from around the world descended on Cuba over the weekend for a “humanitarian” trip aimed at protesting the United States’ oil blockade, and they played the role of useful idiots perfectly. Nothing says solidarity like going to an impoverished country and staying at a five-star hotel.
Hundreds of delegates from dozens of countries brought several tons of food, medicine and other supplies to the island, which is struggling through an energy crisis. The best way to help the Cuban people, of course, would be to free them from a dictatorship that has failed to meet their needs for more than half a century. Yet the roster of attendees was more
President Trump is clear: Long-standing threats like the one emanating from the Iranian regime cannot be managed indefinitely. At some point, they must be confronted directly. That moment has arrived.
The region is under attack. Missiles and drones are targeting infrastructure, economies, and civilian life.
But this is not a story of a region breaking. It is a story of a region proving the resilience of what it has built.
Because what is being tested right now is not just security. It is the economic and strategic model the Gulf has spent years, and in some cases decades, building. And under pressure, it is holding up remarkably well.
So Prince William is a good Anglican after all. He has told the Times, through an aide, of his commitment to the Church, on the eve of attending the installation of the new Archbishop of Canterbury. But does he consider himself a Christian believer? The statement awkwardly dances around that question. It leaves the impression that he does not really consider himself a Christian, but knows that he must keep this semi-veiled. The statement is difficult to analyse because the words are not quite his. They come from an aide; he presumably signed them off, but there is an air of vagueness and deniability in such a not-quite-statement.

No, you didn’t read that headline wrong. The Austrian President has officially gone off the rails.
This guy just gave us a glimpse into how the messed up globalist mind works when it finally stops pretending to be sane. Globalist leaders spent years flooding Europe with failed “refugees welcome” policies that have destroyed communities, crushed national identity, erased traditions, and helped turn once-safe countries into places filled with soaring violent crime. And the far-left leaders behind this madness still haven’t learned a single thing. In fact, they’ve actually become more unhinged, arrogant, and totally absurd. Which brings us to the latest gem from Europe’s ruling class.
Pam Bondi Fired
23 replies
President Donald Trump reportedly has already fired Attorney General Pam Bondi, according to two sources familiar with the matter who spoke with Fox News Digital.
Bondi met with Trump in the Oval Office Wednesday night ahead of his speech to the nation on the war in Iran, where she reportedly was informed of her ouster, according to two sources familiar with the meeting.
Migration advocates claim that “millions” of U.S.-born children, youths, and adults could have their citizenship cancelled if the Supreme Court allows President Donald Trump’s Executive Order barring citizenship for the new children of illegal migrants to stand. Thousands of American babies [born after January 20, 2025] will immediately lose their citizenship,” ACLU Legal Director Cecillia Wang told the nine justices on Wednesday morning. “And if you credit the government’s theory, the citizenship of millions of Americans past, present … could be called into question.”
President Donald Trump on Wednesday night delivered an address to the nation that achieved the legacy media headlines he needed to be displayed for the American people and made an unequivocal America-first declaration that the issues surrounding the Strait of Hormuz are not America's problem.
"We produce more oil and gas than Saudi Arabia and Russia combined," Trump said in a prime-time White House address. "And we're in great shape for the future. The U.S. imports almost no oil through the Hormuz Strait and won't be taking any in the future. We don't need it."
On Thursday, we learned that President Donald Trump fired Pam Bondi as attorney general, making her the second Cabinet member he's axed in less than a month. Trump's official send-off was gracious, but the question remains: Why did he fire her?[snip] According to a report from the Daily Mail, the reason Trump gave Bondi the axe is that he believes Bondi tipped off Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) about the FBI's plans to release documents tied to his decade-old relationship with a suspected Chinese spy.[snip]"The White House wasn't pleased she was intervening due to her personal friendship with Swalwell."

federal judge has ruled that the Trump administration unlawfully pulled the plug on nearly a million asylum-seekers who were temporarily allowed to live in the U.S. thanks to the Biden-era CBP One app.
Fox News reports that the app was used by then-President Joe Biden’s administration beginning in 2023 to allow migrants to schedule appointments with immigration officials with many of the migrants being paroled into the U.S. for up to two years.
On Tuesday, U.S. District Court Judge Allison Burroughs invalidated the Trump administration’s decision to end the immigration parole status of migrants who entered the country under the Biden-era CBP Home policy.In her ruling, Burroughs wrote,
Major automakers unveiled new electric vehicles at the New York Auto Show on Wednesday, despite lagging consumer demand and a sharp downturn in sales after Washington eliminated a $7,500 EV tax credit.
Kia said it would begin selling its lower-priced EV3 in the United States later this year, while Subaru offered a new three-row EV named the “Getaway” that can seat seven.
The Japanese automaker’s family EV SUV will go on sale later this year or next year, its fourth EV model in the US market. Automakers are facing a tougher US EV market but higher gasoline prices in recent weeks have spurred fresh interest.

Should California codify Islamic religious observances into state-recognized holidays in the United States?
As a nation, the essence of who we are as a People is rooted in our Judeo-Christian values and principles, dating back to the Magna Carta. This shared moral vocabulary has shaped Western thinking since America’s founding. Why, then, would any State in the Union formally endorse or incorporate into our educational and other public institutions a religious doctrine with practices antithetical to the belief system?
AB 2017, introduced by Progressive Democrats Assemblyman Matt Haney and Senator Aisha Wahab, proposes adding Eid al-Fitr (Festival of Breaking the Fast) and Eid al-Adha (Festival of Sacrifice) to California’s recognized holidays.

President Trump has said he is strongly considering pulling out of Nato, prompting Keir Starmer to announce a fresh move towards closer ties with Europe and the unwinding of Brexit. The Mail has more.
Keir Starmer signalled a fresh push to unwind Brexit today as Donald Trump ramped up his abuse of Britain.
The President said the UK “doesn’t even have a navy” as he accused Keir Starmer of only caring about building “windmills”.
He also dismissed Nato as a “paper tiger” and said America leaving the military alliance was now “beyond reconsideration”.
But at a Downing Street press conference, Sir Keir swiped that Iran is “not our war”
Carville: Trump Will Be ‘Impeached in 2027’

[WARNING: Adult Language]
Wednesday on the “Politicon” podcast Democratic strategist James Carville predicted President Donald Trump will get impeached in 2027.
Carville said, “You know who’s gonna turn on you? What’s left of the Republican senators. There may be 43 to 45 of them left. Now the House is gonna vote to impeach you. You’re gonna be impeached in 2027. These senators can’t stand you. These Republican senators, they can’t stand you. They have to be there because of their politics, back in their states, but it’s gonna be apparent to them that you’re a loser. You’re a losing * bet. You’re going to see all this come around
A Colorado court of appeals on Thursday overturned the nine-year sentence handed down to Tina Peters, the Mesa County clerk who was found guilty of election tampering after she granted an unauthorized man access into the county’s election system in an effort to find proof of fraud in the 2020 presidential election.
While the three-judge panel upheld Peters’s conviction, it overturned her nine-year sentence because it was “based in part on improper consideration of her exercise of her right to free speech.”
The panel found the judge who sentenced Peters violated her rights

Michael Goodwin, writing at the New York Post, made a claim remarkable for its simple clarity: “The Democratic Party We Once Knew Is Dead.” You and I can readily agree with Goodwin, but the party is certainly not dead and gone. What has it become?
Victor Davis Hanson provides the answer:
There is no Democratic Party. There’s a Socialist Party. But it’s a very weird Socialist Party. It’s a ... [pyramid] with a lot of very wealthy, globalized elites that run things at the top. Nothing in the middle of the pyramid. And then an expansive big base of poor people, of immigrants.
