Will This Atlantic Hit Piece Be the Final Straw?
Posted By: Hazymac, 4/19/2026 10:03:50 AM
The Atlantic has a well-documented history of publishing fake hit pieces about President Donald Trump and his administration, and one wonders how many more hoaxes they can run before they get in real trouble. Its latest effort targeting FBI Director Kash Patel may be its most reckless yet — and this time, the bureau is fighting back with lawyers. The piece, written by reporters Sarah Fitzpatrick and Jonathan Lemire, claims that on Friday, April 10, Patel struggled to log into an internal FBI computer system while wrapping up his workday. He quickly became convinced that he had been locked out, and he panicked,

First, the good news: We’ve juuuust about reached the point where we won’t have to talk about Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens anymore. They’ve unmasked themselves as lying, bigoted click-whores.
Carlson’s career was longer; Owens’ was shorter. But for a brief, flickering moment in the 2010s, both were considered credible, trustworthy journalists and/or mainstream conservative “influencers.” Turning Pont USA and The Daily Wire boosted Owens; Carlson was the beneficiary of the (exceptionally) well-oiled NewsCorp PR machine.
And then… they weren’t.
Conservative audiences are a fiercely loyal breed. We instinctively protect our favorites from the liberal mob — because history has taught us

This Tuesday, President Trump will be reading 2 Chronicles 7:11–22 from the Oval Office as part of “America Reads the Bible,” a weeklong event commemorating 250 years of the Bible in America. The event features 500 participants reading Scripture, from Genesis to Revelation. It’s an amazing endeavor that the nation is ripe for, because I believe that a revival has already begun.
We are long past due for the kind of revival that sees thousands of people pouring into the streets, filling stadiums, and banging down church doors to praise their God.
But it won’t just be about singing and praying; it will be a fight for survival
If you’ve ever wanted to know what the height of cringe could look like, we now have an answer. There’s a long list of excruciating moments in the annals of politics and theater, but this one instantly goes to the top of the all-time list.
As we all know, socialist and Marxist philosophies have failed everywhere they’ve been tried, and millions of people are dead as a result.
But that didn’t stop former President Barack Obama and democrat socialist NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani from reveling in the movement’s historical murderous history; in fact, they’re positively giddy about it. Try not to feel queasy as the USSR wannabe Mamdani
On Saturday’s broadcast of MS NOW’s “The Weekend,” Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) said that Iran was “essentially pushed into saying, we’re going to take control of” the Strait of Hormuz “and we’re going to now use economic risk as our substitute for military strength.”
Jayapal said that there is a “massive amount of chaos that everybody across the world is looking at, because, obviously, most of the oil — 20% of the oil flows through that Strait. So, it doesn’t just affect folks at home. And I know, in my home state, gas prices are now at $7. … And so, it is really causing enormous havoc. And prices are
The video about the two gay dads and their baby, who keeps saying “maa-maa-maa,” isn’t bad for the reason people say it is—namely, that the baby desperately wants mommy, not daddy—although it’s still bad. However, when it comes to all the moral wrongs of surrogate parenting, there’s actually an even more disturbing video out there.
Two points, before getting to the gay dads and their “maa-maa-maa” baby, one factual and one anecdotal.
The factual point is that “maa-maa-maa” is the first sound almost all babies make. That’s why so many cultures have that sound in their preferred word for what a child calls its mother.
Whether spoken with an American, English, Spanish, Italian,
Repeal the 17th Amendment

The Seventeenth Amendment was ratified in 1913, during the height of the Progressive Era. Reformers argued that state legislatures had become hopelessly deadlocked and corrupt. Between 1885 and 1912, legislatures deadlocked seventy-one times over Senate selections, leaving at least seventeen seats vacant for entire sessions or longer. States went unrepresented in Washington, while lawmakers wasted months on partisan warfare.
Scandals amplified the outrage. In Montana, copper baron William A. Clark admitted to spending the equivalent of millions in today’s dollars to buy his seat; the Senate refused to seat him. In Illinois, Senator William Lorimer was expelled in 1912 after evidence showed that four state legislators
Amidst the ongoing conflict in Iran, a major political event took place in the United States on April 16, 2026, that deserves more attention and scrutiny than the mainstream media will likely devote to it. The event to which I refer to is the victory of Analilia Mejia in the New Jersey special election for congressional district 11.
Mejia’s decisive win in the seat formerly held by New Jersey governor Mikie Sherrill should send political shockwaves because I think it is more than fair to say that she will likely be perhaps the most socialistic member of Congress.
When asked if she would join “The Squad” shortly before the election,

I do like to follow up and keep you all on top of where things stand with some of the previous stories I've covered. Sometimes, it's true, there's not much to write about because whatever happened happened and then they lie there like a dead bug until they shrivel and go away of their own accord.
In other cases, there can be happier resolutions, which is always cheerful news, but those are admittedly rare.
Most wind up in the slow-rolling disaster column, and man - that does seem to be the case with the Biden administration's $1.6B push to electrify city transit fleets.

It was quite a week. The Democrats decided they needed to get rid of a candidate in the crowded field for Governor of California, and the fall guy was Eric Swalwell. It turned out that the Democrats and their reporters had known all along that Swalwell was a sexual predator, but until now it wasn’t opportune to mention it.
President Trump posted an AI-generated image of himself as Jesus, or maybe just as a doctor, healing someone. That prompted howls of outrage from the people who are always howling in outrage, and an extraordinary outpouring of memes showing Trump and others as Jesus, or just as healers.
Speaking of Jesus,
As some readers might be able to identify, I’m getting less and less inclined to be gracious toward the third-world individuals with subhuman levels of intelligence, and a culture to match. Having just returned from a beautiful trip around the U.K. with my two sons last month, I take particular umbrage with all-too-common instances like this, because where else but Europe, by virtue of its location and history, can you find longstanding examples of Western greatness and heritage?

LEESBURG, Fla. - The Lake County Sheriff's Office is looking for a man who they say attempted to shoot a dog that was attacking a woman. Instead, the person of interest shot the dog's owner, killing him, deputies said.
Now, deputies are searching for the man, who they say ran away from the area after the shooting, officials said.
Schools in the area are placed on lockdown due to the police activity.
What we know:
The shooting reportedly happened around a homeless camp, on April 17 near Griffin Road and Tally Box Road, in Leesburg.
According to LCSO, a woman was reportedly being attacked by a large dog. A man, later identified as

Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar blamed an accounting “discrepancy” for errors in a financial disclosure that listed her net worth at up to $30 million – while doubling down that she is not a millionaire, a report said. The lefty “Squad” lawmaker – facing fraud probe calls from President Trump – insisted the initial figures in a disclosure filed last May were completely off-base, as an amended filing now shows shared assets with her husband of up to just $95,000, according to The Wall Street Journal. “The amended disclosure confirms what we’ve said all along: The congresswoman is not a millionaire,” her spokesperson, Jacklyn Rogers, told the outlet.
Ten House Republicans joined Democrats on Thursday evening to keep roughly 350,000 Haitian nationals in the United States on Temporary Protected Status (TPS) despite the Trump administration seeking to end the quasi-amnesty. The House passed the measure, led by Reps. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) and Laura Gillen (D-NY), after advancing the bill through a discharge petition maneuver, with help from half a dozen Republicans. Essentially, the bill would keep about 350,000 Haitians in the U.S. via TPS just as President Donald Trump fights in the Supreme Court to end the quasi-amnesty.
The 10 House Republicans who joined Democrats to defy the Trump administration and move the bill to the Senate are:
Everything about California Governor Gavin Newsom is fake. Even the numbers on his book sales.
His new book is being touted by his allies as a best seller, but the main reason it’s selling so well is because his own political action committee has spent upwards of $1.5 million buying thousands of copies of it.
That’s one way to get on the New York Times best seller list. It’s not honest, but it’ll probably work.
Not a single thing about this man is genuine. Newsom PAC bought thousands of memoir copies about his hardships, juicing sales

The office of Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., is saying that the figures on a previously filed financial disclosure that showed a net worth of up to $30 million were due to an accounting error and don't reflect her actual financial situation with her husband Tim Mynett.
The original disclosure prompted criticism and calls from some GOP critics for further investigation.
Since then, Omar submitted an amended filing showing much lower assets of about $18,000 and $95,000.
According to her office, the discrepancy was the result of incorrect valuations from financial professionals tied to her husband’s business interests, including a venture capital firm and a winery in California.
CAIRO — The standoff over the Strait of Hormuz quickly escalated again Saturday as Iran reversed its reopening of the crucial waterway and fired on ships attempting to pass, in retaliation after the United States pressed ahead with its blockade choking off Iranian ports.
Confusion over the strait, through which roughly one-fifth of the world’s oil passes, threatened to deepen the energy crisis roiling the global economy and push the two countries toward renewed conflict. The ceasefire between them is due to run out by mid-next week, and Pakistani mediators were working to put together a new round of direct negotiations to keep the truce going.

Earlier this year, the U.S. Justice Department asked two Senate committees to provide transcripts and records of contacts with former CIA Director John Brennan regarding the now-discredited Russia collusion allegations, signaling there was an active investigation into whether the former spy boss had misled or obstructed Congress. The letters gave a hard deadline of Feb. 23 for compliance.
Two months later, the body run by Republican Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., has not complied, slowing a key angle of a grand jury investigation based in Fort Pierce, Fla., into whether Obama and Biden-era government officials engaged in a conspiracy —

Rep. Ilhan Omar has dramatically revised financial disclosures that previously showed multimillion-dollar assets, now claiming the figures were the result of an “accounting error.”
The far-left Somali Democrat, who regularly demands that lawmakers raise taxes on the super-rich, had reported assets between $6 million and $30 million in a prior filing.
Yet according to The Wall Street Journal, an amended disclosure now places total assets at just $18,004 to $95,000.

There are numerous headlines like the one above out there Friday, so I won’t pick on one particular outlet. There are longer ones like “European Leaders Welcome Hormuz Reopening and Push for Permanent Navigation Security.” Why did this make me chuckle? Because of course they’re pleased — and they had nothing to do with it.
But don’t worry, they’re going to have meetings about the situation very soon: I can barely contain my excitement. And Macron has “demands”:

Trump administration officials agreed on Monday to allow the “pride” flag at the Stonewall National Monument in New York City to fly once more.
The change comes after the Trump administration had removed the flag earlier this year, a move which immediately sparked legal challenges from LGBT activist groups.
The Department of the Interior had directed the National Park Service to remove the controversial flag, contending that non-agency flags could not be officially flown, according to a report from CBS News.
But the policy provoked a lawsuit against Interior Secretary Doug Burgum, the National Park Service, and other defendants.

Embattled New York Attorney General Letitia James on Friday repeatedly refused to tell The Post why she won’t release her tax returns like other top Democrats in the state did earlier in the week.
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Gov. Kathy Hochul have made income tax returns available for review by reporters, but James is refusing to do so — even as she fights back allegations she falsified information on mortgage applications.
The Empire State’s AG bizarrely claimed that the decision to release her own tax return was up to her staff.
“They will make that determination,” a perturbed James repeatedly told The Post
