TMZ Is Coming for Congress — and Washington
Is Nervous

TMZ is one of those celebrity gossip and listicle sites that I suspect readers around here probably scroll right past, even though it's almost as old as the original blogosphere that eventually helped launch PJ Media. I suspect that's about to change. Bigly. Currently owned by Fox Entertainment (part of the Disney über-conglomerate, not the news network), TMZ seems a bit long in the tooth. Aside from the occasional scandal big enough to get people clicking, the site is far from the unstoppable clickbait machine it was 15 or even just 10 years ago. Social media serves up the celebrity dish so much faster. In its heyday, readers could count

Former US Attorney General Pam Bondi spoke out after being fired from her perch as the head of the Justice Department and teased her new private sector role, where she will “continue fighting for President Trump.”
“Leading President Trump’s historic and highly successful efforts to make America safer and more secure has been the honor of a lifetime, and easily the most consequential first year of the Department of Justice in American history,” she posted on X.
“I remain eternally grateful for the trust that President Trump placed in me to Make America Safe Again.” Trump’s decision to axe Bondi came weeks after making the first cabinet-level firing of his administration,
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.

Two 11-year-olds who were briefly held by a Maryland sheriff’s office on Tuesday for breaking into multiple cars were set free without any charges.
The Harford County Sheriff’s Office confirmed to the Daily Caller News Foundation that the twins had been detained before being released to their mother due to their age. The two told sheriff’s deputies they wanted to take a car to “drive around” and had previously been caught breaking into cars as nine-year-olds, Shore News reported.
“We had two 11-year-old brothers out attempting to steal a car,” HCSO Maj. Lee Dunbar told CBS Baltimore. “Can you just imagine that if they would have gotten into those cars
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.
“The market is going to come back
Virginia Senate candidate Mark Moran announced Thursday that he is leaving the Democratic Party and continuing his run as an independent, the Daily Caller News Foundation has exclusively confirmed.
Moran is challenging three-term incumbent Democrat Sen. Mark Warner in the general election, who he says epitomizes the entrenched status quo he is running to disrupt. The now-independent candidate made his announcement in a video first shared with the DCNF, recorded outside the same historic Richmond, VA church where Founding Father Patrick Henry delivered his 1775 “Give me liberty or give me death!” speech. The 34-year-old former investment banker and reality TV candidate also unveiled a series of policy proposals
Twenty-one years have passed since that April 2 in 2005 when, at 9:37 p.m., Pope John Paul II returned to the Father’s House. It’s been 21 years since the end of one of the longest pontificates in the history of the church and of the life of a pope who changed the world.
Today, I am reminded of his unceasing commitment, his powerful gestures, and his words: “Do not be afraid: open, indeed open wide the doors to Christ!”
St. John Paul II was the pontiff of records and the man who led the church into the new millennium. Born Karol Józef Wojtyla in Poland on May 18, 1920,
The president of the Islamic Society of Milwaukee has been detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, the organization said in a statement. The Islamic Society of Milwaukee said ICE agents followed Salah Sarsour on Monday as he left his home, surrounded his vehicle, and took him into custody.
The organization said Sarsour was taken to an ICE facility in Broadview, Illinois before being transferred to a detention center in Indiana. The Islamic Society of Milwaukee said Salah Sarsour has been a legal resident of the Milwaukee community for over 32 years, and is a lawful permanent resident, whose wife and all six children are citizens.
During oral arguments at the Supreme Court on Wednesday, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson made her case for why the children of foreign tourists ought to qualify for birthright American citizenship if they are born in the United States while their parents are on vacation.
The case, known as Trump v. Barbara, will decide whether or not President Donald Trump’s executive order to end birthright citizenship for the U.S.-born children of illegal aliens and foreign tourists, often referred to as “anchor babies,” is constitutional.
During an exchange with the ACLU’s Cecillia Wang, who is arguing that the order is unconstitutional, Jackson seemingly made a case for why birthright citizenship should extend to foreigners
A local television news anchor in Alabama sparked outrage online for signing off a recent newscast by quoting the founder of an Islamic fundamentalist group blamed for inspiring some of the world’s most lethal terrorist organizations.
Ashonti Ford, 38, was wrapping up her 6 p.m. broadcast this past Thursday on Birmingham’s ABC 33/40 WBMA-LD when she cited a quote attributed to the late Hassan al-Banna, the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood.
“Before we go, a quote from the founder of the Islamic Brotherhood: ‘The quieter you become, the more you’re able to hear,’” she said as she closed the March 26 newscast on the Sinclair-owned station.
California gubernatorial hopeful Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., took at least six trips to Doha backed by Qatar-linked sponsors from 2020 through 2024, extending a pattern of foreign-funded travel that previously drew criticism, according to House filings reviewed by Fox News Digital. The disclosures show Swalwell returned to Qatar repeatedly over multiple years, even after he was slammed for taking an $84,000 trip with a few other lawmakers to the Gulf emirate in 2021 sponsored by the U.S.-Qatar Business Council. In addition to that trip, filings from the House of Representatives clerk show Swalwell also went to Doha in 2020, twice in 2022, once in 2023 and once in 2024,
Newly resurfaced videos reveal Republican Louisiana Rep. Julia Letlow promised to create a diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) office at the university where she worked and ensure more “women of color” were hired into leadership roles.
Letlow publicly claims to oppose “woke ideology,” and has been endorsed by President Donald Trump in her primary Senate race against incumbent Bill Cassidy. However, a 2020 video shows Letlow participating in a panel interview as a semifinalist for the University of Louisiana, Monroe’s presidential search, where she detailed plans to lead diversity measures and ensure more women, especially ‘women of color,’ would be hired for senior leadership roles.

President Donald Trump says he is reconsidering America’s membership of NATO after not a single member heeded his call for aid in securing the Middle East from Iranian threats, he told a British newspaper.
It was “actually hard to believe” the hard refusals of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO’s) European members, that the instinct to rally to the flag of a fellow member when called wasn’t reflexive, U.S. President Donald Trump has told The Daily Telegraph.
Pam Bondi Fired

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.
Top Iranian officials denied President Trump’s claim that the regime begged for a cease-fire deal on Wednesday, insisting that Tehran is committed to winning the war.
A spokesperson for the office of Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian rejected Trump’s post on Truth Social claiming that Tehran had reached out to Washington for a peace deal.
“The stance of the Islamic Republic of Iran regarding the defense of the homeland against the onslaught of the forces of evil and the conditions for ending the imposed war has undergone no change, and there is no regard whatsoever for the delusions and lies of the criminal aggressors,” Seyyed Mehdi Tabatabaei wrote on X.
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson (D) claims President Donald Trump’s administration is committing “assaults against immigrants” less than 10 days after 18-year-old Sheridan Gorman was murdered in the Windy City, allegedly at the hands of an illegal alien released into the United States by the Biden administration.
During a “No Kings” protest in Chicago, Illinois, over the weekend, Johnson told MS NOW in an interview that Americans must fight the Trump administration on immigration.
“We have to end the assaults against immigrants,” Johnson said, among other things.
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."
No, you didn’t read that headline wrong. The Austrian President has officially gone off the rails.

Legal Status of Migrants Who Used CBP

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,
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.
ABC News was out of control with their dangerous conspiracy theories Tuesday morning. In an attempt to gaslight their viewers into thinking President Trump was preparing to do something horrific against America, they pretended that the White House didn’t already have a bunker underneath it. They blatantly claimed the one reportedly being built under the new ballroom was being designed for him to hold onto power and control the country after he would refuse to leave office.
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi floated the possibility on Tuesday that Republicans might try to hack into election systems to change the outcome of the 2026 midterm elections.
That’s rich coming from a leader in the Democratic Party who chastised the GOP for questioning the integrity of the 2020 presidential election.
You’ll recall that Democratic election officials in 2020, without the approval of their state legislatures, made all kinds of last-minute election rule and procedural changes regarding mail-in ballots and due dates, among other matters, in key swing states like Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin,

Strike ‘Entombed’ Iran Uranium Deep
Underground, Avoiding High‑Risk Ground Op 13 replies
The recent massive U.S. strike near Iran’s central city of Isfahan likely sought to render Tehran’s remaining highly enriched uranium stockpile inaccessible by burying it deep underground — a strategy that would negate the need for a prolonged and risky U.S. ground operation to extract the material, according to an Israeli military analyst writing Tuesday.
Writing in Ynet on Tuesday, Israeli military analyst Ron Ben-Yishai — a veteran Yediot Ahronot correspondent and Israel Prize recipient — assessed that the strike reflects a deliberate U.S. effort to neutralize Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile by entombing it beneath rock, soil, and collapsed tunnel infrastructure rather than attempting to remove it by force.
