Interior Secretary Doug Burgum Blasts
Establishment Media Obsession with Reflecting
Pool Fixes
Posted By: ladydawgfan, 5/29/2026 5:44:55 PM
Interior Secretary Doug Burgum is blasting the establishment media over its obsession with the Trump administration’s fixes of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool on the National Mall. The Trump administration is working to revive the capital ahead of America’s 250th anniversary, and that includes restoring monuments, fountains, and making the Reflecting Pool beautiful again. However, several establishment media outlets have been critical. The Washington Post, for example, has an entire article devoted to picking apart the shade of blue chosen for the bottom of the pool, running to a “color consultant” who believes the shade will look “very dismal.” The New York Times has also targeted these improvements,

Texas Democrat Senate Hopeful James Talarico

Refers to Women as ‘Neighbors with a Uterus’ 19 replies
Texas state Rep. James Talarico, the Democrat running against Republican state Attorney General Ken Paxton in the U.S. Senate race, has referred to women as “neighbors with a uterus” on more than one occasion.
The Democrat used the expression while lamenting Roe v. Wade being overturned, which brought the issue of abortion back to the state level.
“Every one of our neighbors with a uterus became property of the state,” he claimed.
In another clip, the Democrat talks about how “neighbors with a uterus” should be able to “control their own body” – leftist code for murdering their unborn child without repercussions.
Kavankumar Patel, an illegal migrant from India, has been sentenced to a ten-year prison term for participating in a child sex-trafficking ring in Omaha, Nebraska, the Department of Justice announced.
The 27-year-old native of Gujarat, India, was convicted on two counts of sex trafficking of a minor, and handed a ten-year sentence with no chance for parole, the DOJ said in a press release.
The DOJ added that he will be deported immediately upon completion of his sentence.
Police in Omaha had initially been contacted over a case of theft that Patel was allegedly involved in, but upon investigating that case, police realized that there was something more sinister going on.

James Talarico, the Democrat freak who’s running for U.S. Senate in Texas and loves trans kids, claims that lots of Republicans are secretly supporting his campaign. Uh huh. Sure they are.
This is the sort of desperate, utter baloney that is usually reserved for later in the campaign cycle. Remember White Dudes for Kamala Harris? How did that work out?
Talarico’s act is already wearing thin. He basically uses Christianity to support far left ideas. In case you haven’t noticed, the only time he ever brings up his faith or his religious beliefs is to defend something the radical left believes.
This bit about Republican voters secretly supporting him is simply not believable.
Nithya Raman is a member of the Los Angeles city council who is running for mayor on the far left. She wants to be the Zohran Mamdani of LA.
That’s not even an exaggeration, by the way. She has the same political philosophy as Mamdani, is supported by all the same types of people, and like Mamdani, she was born outside of the United States but feels completely entitled to run one of our biggest cities.
Recently, some activists set up a homeless encampment outside of her house. They were trying to make a point about her support for occupy-style tent encampments. She had the nerve to be offended by this.
In an explosive exchange with Will Cain, Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche delivered the clearest message yet from the Trump Department of Justice: political accountability is meaningless when billions in taxpayer dollars meant for children’s lunches and elderly medical care have been looted.
Real accountability means arrests, prosecutions, and jail time and no one, including sitting or former Democrat politicians, is immune.
Will Cain laid it out plainly while discussing Tim Walz dropping out of the governor’s race:
An ICE agent charged in the nonfatal shooting of a Venezuelan migrant was arrested in Texas on Friday morning.
Earlier this month, Soros-funded prosecutor Mary Moriarty charged an ICE agent with the nonfatal shooting of a Venezuelan migrant she claimed was legally in the United States.
Moriarty charged the agent, identified as Christian Castro, with four counts of second-degree assault and one count of falsely reporting a crime.
In January, ICE agents were involved in a shooting in Minneapolis as Governor Walz claimed federal agents are “going door-to-door ordering people to point out where their neighbors of color live.”
Some states may coddle and protect illegal aliens, and some state governors may even seek to hide illegal aliens from federal immigration authorities. Not so in Ron DeSantis's Florida. A recent sweep of the Sunshine State's highways by Florida law enforcement has resulted in the roundup of a reported 249 illegal aliens, who are being handed over to federal authorities for, we presume, repatriation. In any case, that's 249 illegal aliens caught.
Law enforcement officers from across Florida are teaming up on increasingly coordinated and successful efforts to arrest illegal immigrants along the state’s roadsides.
Lest we forget just how bad, how feckless, how incompetent and, yes, how anathema to America's founding principles and the best interests of the citizens the Biden administration was, now there's this: Allegations have surfaced that the Biden-Harris administration may have slipped millions of dollars to non-governmental organizations (NGOs) with ties to terrorist groups. Taxpayer dollars, mind you, sent to anti-Israel and pro-terrorist groups, (Snip) Did we need a better justification for President Trump slamming the door shut on USAID? Here we are.
Once again, women's rights to safety and privacy are being dismissed at the behest of transgender ideology, even in elementary school restrooms.
Kerri and Luis Rivera, the parents of a third grade girl at Rochester Memorial School in Massachusetts, filed a formal Title IX complaint on sexual harassment grounds following several incidents with a biological male student in the women's bathroom. [Tweets]
The complaint, filed by Massachusetts Liberty Legal Center, alleges that the male student entered the bathroom and looked under the stall, asking, "Whose feet are those?" When the girl did not respond, the male student allegedly peered through the crack between the stall and wall,
An Alabama judge was indefinitely suspended after the state’s Judicial Inquiry Commission filed a 120-page complaint against her listing a series of allegations, including making racist remarks about white people.
Jefferson County Probate Judge Yashiba G. Blanchard, a black woman, is under scrutiny due to issues with how she has conducted herself in court and with her coworkers. The complaint outlines a long list of allegations.
The complaint alleges that Blanchard directed a racist remark at Chief Clerk Amanda Reid, who is white. Shortly after taking office, a new staff member told the judge she enjoyed working with the clerk. Blanchard replied, “Oh, I forgot you all like kissing white ass.”

A lesbian minister in Nantucket, Massachusetts, is canceling her church’s annual Fourth of July celebrations in an act of political protest apparently against the country’s — as well as her own congregation’s — “whiteness.”
Rev. Erin Splaine announced to her community Thursday that the Second Congregational Meeting House Society, Unitarian Universalist church would be canceling its customary July 4th celebrations, which include a public reading of the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights. "We came to this decision in large measure because of the recent gutting of the 1965 Voting Rights Act by the Supreme Court,” Splaine wrote in a letter to the Nantucket Current. She was referring to
Democrats are shaking their heads in disbelief at the timing of Jill Biden’s memoir and her change in tone about Joe Biden’s disastrous debate performance.
The party would rather talk about the high cost of living and increased gas prices under President Trump, Democrats told The Post, rather than relive the debate around Joe Biden’s cognitive health.
“We need this as much as we need a hole in the head,” Jim Manley, a Democratic strategist who worked in the Senate for years, said. Jill Biden’s confessional about her concerns over the former president’s health is dropping as the party fights to win control of Congress in November.

On Memorial Day, Minnesota Democrat officials, including Gov. Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, dumped the troops and headed to the eyesore known as ‘George Floyd Square’, an epicenter of the BLM riots, to groove along with the ‘Brass Resistance Band’ and a DJ in honor of the fallen violent criminal who had died of a drug overdose while resisting arrest.
“Today, we remember George Floyd,” Mayor Frey tweeted. “The weight of what happened is still with our city six years later – and the responsibility to keep moving forward together is too. I know we can keep building a Minneapolis that is safer, more accountable, and more worthy
Two Minnesota fraudsters allegedly swindled more than $21 million in funding earmarked for autism services through two bogus companies and then spent it lavishly on overseas property, officials said.
Shamso Ahmed Hassan, 55, and Hanaan Mursal Yusuf, 25, whose mugshots were released on Wednesday, made off like bandits by submitting millions of dollars in fake claims to Minnesota’s Early Intensive Development and Behavioral Intervention Program [EIDBI] between May 2020 and December 2024, authorities said.
The pair enrolled two companies co-owned by Hassan — Smart Therapy Center LLC and Star Autism Center LLC —

Congress after judge orders his name removed

President Trump declared Friday that he has “no interest in continuing” to oversee operations and renovations at the Kennedy Center – and will move to transfer those responsibilities to Congress – after a federal judge ordered his name to be removed from the performing arts venue.
District Judge Christopher Cooper ruled that within 14 days all physical signage bearing Trump’s name must be removed from the building and all references to a “Trump Kennedy Center” must be eliminated from official materials, in response to a lawsuit by Rep. Joyce Beatty (D-Ohio), who is an ex-officio member of the institution’s board.
CBS News Editor-in-Chief continues draining the woke swamp at the long-compromised Sunday news program, 60 Minutes.
The Gateway Pundit has documented for years how ’60 Minutes’ repeatedly targeted conservatives and President Trump with one-sided hit pieces while giving Democrats and their allies soft-glove treatment.
The show’s credibility collapsed further after the disastrous Kamala Harris interview that triggered a major lawsuit and exposed its activist bent.
Bari Weiss, who famously walked away from The New York Times over its radical leftward lurch and cancel culture, is now applying the same standards at CBS.

The federal judge who ruled Friday that it is unlawful for President Donald Trump to add his name to the Kennedy Center is the husband of former President Joe Biden’s personal attorney.
U.S. District Judge Christopher R. Cooper, who is married to Joe Biden’s personal attorney Amy Jeffress, ruled that President Trump can’t legally add his name to the Kennedy Center, effectively blocking the performing arts venue’s updated moniker — the Trump Kennedy Center, court documents show. Cooper also blocked the administration’s plans for a two-year closure so the center can undergo significant renovations.
According to Judge Cooper, Trump’s name cannot be added as the law that established the center “makes crystal
There is a bizarre controversy out of the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit, where a federal judge has been reprimanded for engaging in repeated, loud sexual encounters during office hours in chambers with a police officer. (snip) Ironically, among the clues about the judge’s identity, the order mentions that the judge attended the “victory party for a District Attorney” in 2024, the night before “the judge’s summer interns’ first day.” The Georgia primary was on May 21, 2024, and the date coincides with the victory party for Fani Willis,

According to court records, I have two children. Because I’m so gosh-darn manly, both my children are boys. (‘Cause that’s how genetics works.) Therefore, I’ve never had to give my kids “the talk” — but I have plenty of friends and relatives with adolescent girls, so I know how “the talk” goes:
“Honey, sit down. It’s time you learned the truth. You have to be careful out there, because boys your age are only after… one thing. It’s all they care about!”
Yeah: That one thing is raising children.
It’s one of the strangest, most unexpected evolutions in modern politics. Almost no one saw it coming: Gen Z men and Gen Z women
A Virginia high school graduation descended into chaos when a spectator rushed the stage and attacked a student who was walking to receive his diploma.
Evan J. Williams Jr., 20, was arrested Thursday and charged with disorderly conduct and damage to private property in connection with the brawl that broke out during John Marshall High School’s graduation ceremony at Virginia Commonwealth University, according to police.
A 12-second viral video of the violence posted on Facebook shows the moment several attendees began to fight on the students’ special day in front of shocked family members just before 11 a.m. Wednesday at the school’s Siegel Center.
