Text messages released by the Senate Judiciary Committee show two former federal prosecutors discussing desires to prosecute nuns during investigations of the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol. Joseph Cooney and Molly Gaston, career prosecutors at the Justice Department rather than political appointees, played a role in prosecuting President Donald Trump during former President Joe Biden’s administration. Both were fired shortly after Trump became president a second time and are legal partners at Gaston & Cooney PLLC. Cooney is running for Congress in Virginia.

May they both spend eternity in an Catholic elementary school taught by nuns armed with rulers.

This is the reason the phrase "Our government at work" has such a negative connotation.

So much for the much ballyhooed (by the likes of Bill Barr, et al)) "career professional" federal employees who are suppose to be non-partisan and just do their jobs regardless of the Administration.

Someone needs to explain to the nuns that their pope sides with the leftists.

Believe me, #5, they know. Traditional, habit wearing nuns that love the Latin Mass are the first to be harassed and even ousted from their convents if their property is deemed valuable. To understand the spiritual war going on in the Catholic Church, read Infiltration by Taylor Marshall. Fatima, Akita, and the Vision of Leo XIII.

Religious hatred and intolerance is strong with the so-called compassion crowd. Being a staunch Protestant, I haven’t ever been bothered by nuns’ habits one bit.

That quote should be running in every campaign against every Democrat. After all, it's not likely any disavowed such a statement and many likely were very supportive of the agenda.

Most lawyers in the Federal government are excepted service which means they have fewer protections than career civil servants. It is easier to fire them, although they do have appeal rights. I say fire these two and deal with the consequences later. They'll be off the payroll for several years while their case winds through the process.

I went to a fund raiser for the catholic Nuns that used to teach school in mu neighborhood, a society that My Great Aunt was in and a big part of, None of these Nuns wore the habit and it appeared more like a gathering of lesbians than anything else. IMO when they stopped wearing the habits they lost respect and their values changed. A system that used to teach i catholic schools is now teaching in Africa, and most of the catholic schools now have closd and those that are open have lay teachers. Public schools have taken most of the students.

In November, the Utah Third District Court struck down the congressional map crafted by the Republican-led state legislature, labeling it an unconstitutional “gerrymander” and replacing it with a map drawn by left-wing plaintiffs.

A bill that would allow recipients of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, to buy hot rotisserie chicken is one step closer to becoming law. On Thursday, the U.S. House voted 384-35 in support of an amendment to the Farm Bill, which would modify the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 to law to allow the purchase of hot rotisserie chicken for SNAP beneficiaries. U.S. Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., introduced bipartisan legislation labeled the “Hot Rotisserie Chicken Act,” in the Senate a week ago

The IRS asked these churches for detailed information about their operations, not just about the alleged violations,” the task force wrote.

The California Supreme Court officially disbarred President Donald Trump’s former attorney, John Eastman, last week over his work assisting Trump to dispute the 2020 election results. Eastman merely provided options for Trump to consider in a legal memo — some of which would have resulted in Joe Biden winning the election — and drafted and filed a brief for him in the election challenge Texas v. Pennsylvania. In contrast, none of the attorneys involved in the 2000 election challenge representing Al Gore over “hanging chads” in Florida were disciplined.

Cook has made a great financial success of Apple, indeed, but many conservatives also remember how he oversaw implementation of a woke agenda. Recently, this has been particularly obvious on Apple News, as Media Research Center found. Apple News went on a 100-day streak of no right-leaning media through the start of February, and proved the most radical major online news aggregator again in March.

New York leaders are desperately trying to stop billionaire bigwigs from hightailing out of the Big Apple with their cash, businesses and thousands of jobs — as fears mount that Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s policies will accelerate the Empire State’s nation-leading loss of wealth.

Rep. Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., made the remarks during a recent Seattle briefing following a congressional delegation trip to Cuba, where she discussed the island’s worsening fuel shortages and U.S. policy toward the communist regime. "I was in conversations with the ambassadors from Mexico and some other places … trying to figure out how to get oil there," Jayapal said during the briefing, calling the situation on the island "a crisis beyond imagination."

The South Carolina House voted last night to open the door for redistricting in a special session a week from now. The measure still has to pass the South Carolina Senate; however, with the Indiana outcome at the forefront of their political future, the redistricting is more than likely. As a consequence, South Carolina Democrat James Clyburn is potentially going to lose his gerrymandered seat in congress. Given Clyburn’s stature as one of the key architects of the DNC ballot harvesting and election counting fraud via the AME Church network, Democrats are apoplectic.

Both have stomach-turning smirks that cement their place in the despicable hall of fame.

According to the Lynnwood Times, Councilwoman Isabel Mata made the remarks during the May 4 City Council meeting while discussing the city’s flag display policies. “To me, a pride flag is way more relatable than an American flag. I would not raise an American flag at my house because I just, I wouldn't. I wasn't even born here.

Earlier this week, we editorialized about the Great Green Grift of the climate hustlers who line their own pockets as well as those of their co-conspirators. Today we dig into the science, which has been repeatedly abused, often abandoned and artfully prostituted to support the global warming racket. The United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has long been treated as always having the first and last word on global warming. Google’s artificial intelligence says it’s “widely regarded as the world’s leading authority on climate science, providing essential, peer-reviewed assessments that inform international policy.”

Barack Obama appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert Monday night and had the audacity — the actual audacity — to lecture America about presidents misusing the Justice Department. And he did it with a straight face. Obama told Colbert that presidents shouldn't be able to weaponize the DOJ against their enemies. "The White House shouldn't be able to direct the attorney general to go around prosecuting whoever," Obama said. "The idea is that the attorney general is the people's lawyer. It's not the president's consigliere." Just let that sit for a second. The man who appointed Eric Holder as attorney general — the same Eric Holder who publicly called himself

It started with an undeniably creepy, stalky video starring New York City's dashing young communist mayor, Zohran Kwame Mamdani. The mayor posted the video on Tax Day, April 15. In it, he announced the creation of a so-called pied-à-terre tax — a tax on luxury second homes within city limits. That was the commie part of the video; the creepy, stalky part was that he chose to film it in front of a building that houses a penthouse belonging to one individual billionaire. Mamdani called the man out by name — Ken Griffin, founder and co-owner of the Citadel hedge fund and securities empire — and stoked envy by disclosing
