Trump’s top Wall Street cop shoots down
Biden-era climate rules for US firms
Posted By: ConservativeYankee, 5/29/2026 5:35:27 PM
President Trump’s top Wall Street cop moved Friday to kill a sweeping Biden-era climate rule that would force US firms to report on global warming risks and their own greenhouse gas emissions. Paul Atkins, the chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission, blasted the climate change disclosure regulation as growth-strangling red tape that “exceeded our authority.” “We need to stick to our knitting. Let the Environmental Protection Agency do their job and we stick to our job,” he said in an interview with Fox Business, casting the move as part of President Trump’s deregulation agenda that he vowed would “make IPOs great again.”

Maine Republican gubernatorial candidate Jonathan Bush explained that voters in Maine are “sick to death” of Maine’s Democrat Gov. Janet Mills, who is term-limited.
While speaking with Breitbart News Saturday host Matthew Boyle, Bush noted that while people think the state is “irretrievably blue,” the state is actually purple, and turning red.
“Maine is purple, and coming red this time around. We’ve changed governor’s mansions every eight years for the last eighty years. Everybody in Maine is sick to death of the current governor, who is term-limited. But everybody running on the Democratic side is in her administration,” Bush said.

President Trump received a largely clean bill of health at his annual physical at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, including a "normal" score of 30 out of 30 on his cognitive assessment, according to a White House memo attributed to his physician, undermining liberal speculation of a President Biden-like mental decline.
Physician to the President Sean Barbabella's May 29 memo, which unlike his memo for Trump's annual physical in April 2025 does not appear to have been posted on the White House website, only noted two deficiencies.
The president has "slight lower leg swelling," which has "improved" from last year when he was diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency, and
The 119th Congress has taken roughly 16 breaks from Capitol Hill thus far despite a record-long shutdown and a war with Iran.
The House and Senate followed through with their recesses during historically rocky times, including when the longest government shutdown in history took place in the Fall of 2025, lasting 43 days. During that time, Speaker Mike Johnson extended district work periods and the House did not return for regular votes, while the Senate took short breaks that prolonged the shutdown.
Throughout the shutdown, the Senate reconvened for votes during the first week of October and continued meeting into November to negotiate on continuing resolutions.

market under bill aimed at Chinese automaker ownership 6 replies
Mercedes-Benz could find itself shut out of the U.S. auto market — banned from making or selling new vehicles in the country — under legislation making its way through Congress.
New bipartisan legislation aimed at limiting Chinese involvement in the U.S. auto market may sweep in Mercedes-Benz unless the bill is changed or the German automaker’s largest shareholder sells its stake. The bill, the Motor Vehicle Modernization Act of 2026, would prohibit automakers that have “any direct or indirect equity interest by a foreign-adversary government,” such as China, from importing, selling or manufacturing vehicles for sale in the U.S.
Mercedes-Benz’s largest individual shareholder is the state-owned Chinese automaker BAIC,
Democrats and liberal media seem to be constantly taking issue with anything President Donald Trump does, regardless of the merits of his actions.
But they've now truly jumped the shark with their Trump Derangement Syndrome when they're objecting to Trump cleaning up fountains and monuments around Washington, D.C. Our sister site Townhall reported on some of the interesting reaction.
Here's the account that used to be the Kamala Harris Headquarters account, terming things like spending on the Reflecting Pool, Trump "vanity projects."
The Department of Housing and Urban Development on Friday launched an investigation into Multnomah County, Oregon, over the county's race-based homelessness programs, writing in a letter to county officials that the programs likely violate the Fair Housing Act.
The move comes after the Washington Free Beacon reported that Multnomah County, which includes most of Portland, awards more points for "requesting culturally responsive services" than for being "homeless 12+ months" in its allocation scheme for housing services. Individuals must reach a certain cutoff on the points-based index in order to qualify for supportive housing. The county also sets aside "culturally specific" apartments for the "BIPOC community," part of a broader package
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
The White House this week launched a public database showing where illegal aliens are being arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), another move by the Trump administration to expand transparency around the issue of illegal immigration.
The website, aliens.gov, plays on themes around extraterrestrial life but ultimately unveils a map of the United States with the number of arrests in each area, the national origins of such illegal aliens, their criminal convictions, and whether they have gang affiliations.
The map covers high-arrest areas like Dallas, Texas, where, since President Trump took office for his second term, more than 17,000 illegal aliens have been arrested, as well as low-arrest areas like

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.

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.

Following an O’Keefe Media Group undercover report, Sean Hudson, the Director of Community Relations for the Washington Nationals in Washington, DC, has been let go. Hudson had initially been placed on leave in the aftermath of the video.
Sources told The Athletic on Friday, three days after the undercover video was released, that he had been let go. In the video, Hudson was heard admitting to discriminating against starting pitcher Trevor Williams due to his Catholic beliefs and the digital surveillance of fans who visit the stadium.
Hudson said regarding Williams, "The Dodgers had a group out to the stadium who were drag queens who sometimes dressed up as nuns.

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.

Career anti-Trump agitator Bruce Springsteen will be there to add his crying left-wing protests ahead of the mid-terms.
So too fellow travelers Foo Fighters, Dave Matthews, Joan Baez, Brittany Howard of Alabama Shakes, Jack Black and others will come together for Morello’s festival.

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.
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 —

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.

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.
