This absolutely had to be my last one for the night.
As you may - or may not - have known, it's been a couple of busy days for the president and our glorious First Lady.
From ducking madmen and comforting an angry and concerned nation on Saturday night... ...to rearranging Norah O'Donnell's derriere... ...President Trump has scarcely had a moment to chill out. Not that he'd want one.
And then, today? Chuck and Camilla stopped in for a visit. And it was everything British royalty could appreciate from their American cousins for their first state visit
The troops looked gorgeous.

Sure, it's not antisemitism. It's a political statement against Bibi Netanyahu or something.
A benefit concert for the victims of the Bondi Beach massacre in Australia has been canceled because the choir that was scheduled to sing refused to share the stage with a Jewish choir group.
You can't make this up. Surprised to find an action like this from the cultural elite? I'm not.
A choral concert fundraiser for the victims of the Bondi Beach terror attack at a Jewish event in Sydney has been canceled after local Greek singers opposed singing alongside their Jewish counterparts

As we reported, King Charles is visiting the United States.
He spoke to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday.
He also met with President Donald Trump, as Trump gave a speech on how "In recent years, we've often heard it said that America is merely an idea," but that it was much more than that; that "the cause of freedom did not simply appear as an intellectual invention of 1776," and that the American founding was based on struggle, sweat, blood, and sacrifice to have the freedom we enjoy today. I think this was likely a retort to one of Joe Biden's classic lines

US President Donald Trump has instructed aides to prepare for an extended blockade of Iran, The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday.
Citing US officials, the report said that in recent meetings, Trump opted to continue squeezing Iran’s economy and oil exports by preventing shipping to and from its ports.
He assessed that his other options—resume bombing or walk away from the conflict—carried more risk than maintaining the blockade, officials added, the report said.
The US and Israel launched a joint offensive against Iran on Feb. 28, prompting Tehran to respond with strikes on what it described as US interests across the region, many of them in Gulf countries.

New York City's self-described democratic socialist mayor, Zohran Mamdani, has made history, just not the kind worth bragging about. Barely months into office, he has blown past a statutory budget deadline for the first time since 2015, declared a fiscal crisis of "historic magnitude," and responded to a $5.4 billion budget gap the way any good socialist would: by asking someone else to pay for it.
Mamdani and City Council Speaker Julie Menin appeared together at City Hall on Tuesday to announce they would delay the executive budget, originally due May 1, until May 12 while lobbying Albany to bail out a city

Yesterday the Department of Justice unsealed an indictment of David Morens, who was a Senior Adviser to Anthony Fauci during the covid era. The indictment includes allegations against two co-conspirators, who have been identified as Dr. Peter Daszak, the president of EcoHealth Alliance, and Dr. Gerald Keusch, an associate director of Boston University’s National Emerging Infectious Disease Laboratory Institute. EcoHealth Alliance is the nonprofit that got grant money from the National Institutes of Health and passed it on to the Wuhan Institute of Virology to do research on coronaviruses

Today the FBI executed twenty-two search warrants around the metropolitan Twin Cities in its continued investigation of the massiive public-programs fraud committed by an almost exclusively Somali cast of perpetrators. The United States Attorney will present the evidence to a federal grand jury and secure indictments in due course. In the Feeding Our Future case, the time between the searches and the first indictments ran some nine months.
The FBI conducted the searches today on a panoply of daycare centers (thank you, Nick Shirley), autism providers, and perhaps other businesses receiving funds under one or another of Minnesota’s fourteen waivered Medicaid programs. These programs have been looted by fraudsters

On Tuesday afternoon, CNN and MS NOW swooned over King Charles III’s speech to a Joint Session of Congress, choosing not to focus on the historical lessons and shared values that kept the West alive (although its current state is debatable), but on the moments regarding climate change, checks and balances, NATO, and Ukraine to name a few the left has declared outright jabs at President Trump. The two networks trumpeted Charles as a “headmaster” delivering an “extremely political” but “vivid” “masterclass” with a set of values “in complete opposition” that were “batted for” embattled Labour Prime Minister Keir Starmer. CNN led the way in its proverbial weak knees

Virginia Democrats are running out of runway.
The Supreme Court of Virginia has denied Attorney General Jay Jones's motion to stay an injunction issued by a Tazewell Circuit Court judge. The injunction blocks certification of the redistricting referendum results and throws the party's carefully engineered power grab into serious legal jeopardy.
Certification was scheduled for Friday. With the stay denied, that deadline is now in doubt, and the ripple effects could reach all the way to the August primary elections. Virginia law requires the Department of Elections to move voters into new districts before any primary can proceed — a process that takes several weeks.

Texas’ newly redrawn congressional map is officially cleared for use, after the U.S. Supreme Court formally overturned a lower court’s ruling Monday.
In November, the high court allowed the map to be used temporarily. Monday’s ruling maintains that status quo, ensuring the new lines will be used for the 2026 midterms. The ruling ends, for now, the lengthy legal battle over Texas’ efforts to add as many as five more Republican seats to the U.S. House.
Texas took up this unusual mid-decade redistricting effort over the summer, after President Donald Trump pushed the state to help shore up the GOP’s narrow majority

The North Carolina State Board of Elections has identified over 30,000 dead people’s names on their voter rolls in the latest illustration of exactly why Republicans are right to push election integrity reforms.
Justice Department Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon highlighted the exposure of the 34,000 deceased voters’ names. She has been leading the federal charge on trying to pressure states into investigating and cleaning their voter rolls, and is currently fighting dozens of leftist states in court for their data. The new North Carolina data is just one more vindication of the Trump administration’s argument that our elections

I’m a professional political writer: PJ Media pays me to analyze politics, culture, news, and entertainment. Our business relationship isn’t complicated: I write it, and PJ Media publishes it.
But it’s a high-risk job on all sides. When you opine about controversial topics like race, gender, public policy, and war, you’ll inevitably offend someone. (And not always deliberately!)
Question: If I write something that millions of PJ Media readers find offensive, disgusting, and gross, whose fault is it?
Maybe it’s the audience’s fault. If you guys misinterpreted what I wrote, then I’m blameless. Hey, that’s on you people. Can’t blame me for the misinterpretations of others. Right?
Wrong!
It’s my fault.
