‘Modern Politigencia’
It’s hard to be optimistic about any large bill set forth by Congress, especially when the know detrimental effects make one also wonder what unintended consequences may also follow. But it’s a fairly simple thing to understand that massive government spending always creates high inflation down the road. Continue reading
The Supreme Court has ruled in favor of President Donald Trump, allowing him to dismiss heads of independent agencies, including Gwynne Wilcox of the National Labor Relations Board and Cathy Harris of the Merit Systems Protection Board. The Court noted that preventing Trump from terminating these officials would impose greater burdens than those faced by Wilcox and Harris, who argued they could only be removed for cause under federal law. Chief Justice John Roberts affirmed that the decision balances the executive power vested in the presidency. Continue reading
“I look at life from Both Sides Now!” ~ Judy Collins
Federal courts have handed a series of resounding victories to the law firms fighting back against President Trump’s targeted executive orders, a sharp rebuke of his retribution campaign against them.
Three judges, appointed by presidents of both political parties, forcefully struck down orders this month aimed at limiting government contracts and access for Big Law firms Perkins Coie, WilmerHale and Jenner & Block.
The early wins underscore the legal system’s ability to withstand the Trump administration’s pressure test, and have led some in the legal community to take shots at other elite firms that struck deals with Trump to avoid punishments. Continue reading
If insulting terms for Donald Trump are your jam, Wednesday was a very good day indeed.
First, it was revealed that Wall Street investors are using the term “TACO ― Trump Always Chickens Out” to describe Trump’s economic policies and his erratic approach of announcing massive tariffs that cause the markets to plunge, only to back off a short time later, allowing them to rise back up again.
Savvy market watchers are taking advantage of “TACO” by buying beaten-down stocks, waiting for Trump to wimp out and take advantage of the inevitable rebound. Continue reading
Joe Biden wasn’t just asleep at the wheel during his term, he wasn’t even at the wheel. He was so incapacitated that he was reduced to a mere figurehead who spent most of his time at his beach house or on vacation.
For all the Democrats’ hyperbole about ‘our democracy,’ there was very little of it going on at the White House. It was an autocracy, or to be even clearer, an autopen-ocracy.
All of the documents signed using the autopen should be rendered null and void. It’s easy to see which orders were signed with the autopen because the signatures are exactly the same. It’s time to throw out those documents along with the autopen machine itself.

Have you ever had one of those jarring moments when the lyrics of a song you once jammed to as a kid suddenly hit you with grown-up clarity? Maybe it was hearing Free Bird and suddenly realizing the masses in your high school were swaying to a breakup anthem. Or perhaps at your kids’ Catholic athletic event it struck you that “if you’re into evil you’re a friend of mine” (AC/DC’s Hells Bells) might not be the best fire-up song (pun intended). One of my personal favorites was discovering the biting genius behind Bugs Bunny’s old jab, “What a maroon!” – a mispronounced moron, cloaked in Looney Tunes levity but hitting with uncanny precision.
In this age of moral preening – where every tribe, every talking head, invokes Jesus Christ as the mascot of their cause – here’s the mic drop no one saw coming: Jesus called people morons. Continue reading
“If one company or small group of people manages to develop godlike digital superintelligence, they could take over the world. At least when there’s an evil dictator, that human is going to die. But for an AI, there would be no death. It would live forever. And then you’d have an immortal dictator from which we can never escape.” ~ Elon Musk
The Deep State is not going away. It’s just being replaced.
Replaced not by a charismatic autocrat or even a shadowy bureaucracy, but by artificial intelligence (AI) – unfeeling, unaccountable, and immortal.
As we stand on the brink of a new technological order, the machinery of power is quietly shifting into the hands of algorithms. Continue reading
Instead of True Confessions, we need to begin a series of True Conspiracies. Confessions are rare, but conspiracies are plentiful, especially the ones that have come true.
We have documented nearly all of the Democrat scandals that we believe have serious merit, including the 2020 election fraud, the conspiracies surrounding COVID, the vaccine-related deaths, and the global cooling hoax of the seventies that evolved into global warming and then simply climate change. We documented the phony Trump/Russian story and noted that 15-20 million unvetted illegal immigrants crossed our ‘closed’ border, along with half a million criminals. We have become well-versed in the two-tiered justice system that the Democrats have implemented, along with the numerous federal judges who have attempted to subvert established law and create new precedents.

AI technology has been developing at an exponential rate, and it appears to be just a matter of time before we create entities that can think millions of times faster than we do and that can do almost everything better than we can. So what is going to happen when we lose control of such entities? Some AI models are already taking the initiative to teach themselves new languages, and others have learned to “lie and manipulate humans for their own advantage”. Needless to say, lying is a hostile act. If we have already created entities that are willing to lie to us, how long will it be before they are capable of taking actions that are even more harmful to us?
Nobody expects artificial intelligence to kill all of us tomorrow.
But Time Magazine did publish an article that was authored by a pioneer in the field of artificial intelligence that warned that artificial intelligence will eventually wipe all of us out.
Eliezer Yudkowsky has been a prominent researcher in the field of artificial intelligence since 2001, and he says that many researchers have concluded that if we keep going down the path that we are currently on “literally everyone on Earth will die”… Continue reading

Social Security Shock as Retired Workers Set to Get Historic Payout Starting in June
Payouts to Social Security beneficiaries are a necessity, and cover a part of the expenses of at least nine out of ten retirees, as per Gallup polls.
The average monthly benefit for each category in April was about $1,755.57.
However, due to an increase in the cost of living, the June payout will surpass $2,000 for the first time in the SSA’s history… (Continue to full article)
U.S. Genocidal Madness Has Never Ended!
How then can the US society come to terms with its past? How can it acknowledge responsibility? The late Native historian Jack Forbes always stressed that while living persons are not responsible for what their ancestors did, they are responsible for the society they live in, which is a product of that past, assuming this responsibility provides a means of survival and liberation.
Everyone and everything in the world is affected, for the most part negatively, by US dominance and intervention, often violently through direct military means or through proxies
Those of us who write about the heinous Israeli genocidal slaughter of Palestinians in Gaza, although we are most often met with blind indifference by the bulk of society, continue to expose this evil in the midst of this torturous death of innocents… (Continue to full article)
Thanks To Donald Trump, The American Dream Is Dead
Donald Trump’s so-called “voluntary deportation” program is yet another example of how he is killing the alleged “American Dream.”
There was once a time when the phrase “The American Dream” evoked images of opportunity—a place where hard work could elevate anyone, no matter their race, origin, or zip code; a melting pot of possibility. But in today’s America, that dream isn’t just fading—it’s been put on life support, and Donald Trump is hovering over it with a pillow.
With the latest rollout of Trump’s “voluntary deportation” initiative—complete with a convenient app, CBP Home, and a $1,000 travel stipend—his administration has made one thing painfully clear: the American Dream is no longer inclusive… (Continue to full article)
The U.S. Debt Crisis Is Worse Than You Think
America’s $36 trillion debt has experts on edge — here’s what’s really at stake.
Major firms are sounding the alarm on America’s growing debt problem with Moody’s recently downgrading the country’s credit rating. Brett Ewing, chief market strategist at First Franklin Financial Services, joined TheStreet to break down just how serious the problem is and what it could mean for everyday Americans.
We’re sitting around $40 trillion in debt, and we’re running close to a 7% deficit right now.
We still have a lot of room to work with to get that under control over the next decade. And there’s some major things that can be done here in the short run… (Continue to full article)
“Liberation Day” is Cancelled: Trump’s Global Tariffs Ruled Illegal
The U.S. Court of International Trade ruled that Trump did not have the authority to set unilateral tariffs
A federal court ruled that Donald Trump overstepped his authority when he attempted to set unilateral 10% tariffs on nearly all U.S. trading partners.
The U.S. Court of International Trade said that the president’s emergency powers justification for the tariffs didn’t pass muster, in a ruling issued on Wednesday. The three-judge panel objected to the Trump administration’s argument that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act granted “unbounded tariff authority” to the executive branch. In their ruling, they called for a narrow reading of the act and the powers it grants… (Continue to full article)
Goodbye to Traditional Gas Stations in the US
Walmart, Costco, and Dollar General are jumping headfirst into the fuel business in the US
Electrification may be the future, but Walmart, Costco, and Dollar General seem unfazed, they’re becoming gas giants. Wait, what? That’s right. These three major retailers are opening more gas stations. But don’t be mistaken. This isn’t an improvised move, it’s a calculated response to the slow energy transition and the need to build customer loyalty in a fiercely competitive environment.
Of course, it’s all about evolve or die. So these three giants have decided to adapt by turning their parking lots into fuelling centres, but not for electric vehicles. Walmart has already announced more than 45 new gas stations across the U.S., while Costco is extending the hours of its members-only fuel stations. Dollar General, meanwhile, is experimenting with gas stations in the southern part of the country. But weren’t we transitioning to electric? What’s going on??? (Continue to full article)
If the ends truly justify the means, who determines those ends? Is it the meanies?
If the ends justify the means, someone must determine the importance of that end or the goal. If we are willing to forgo morals, ethics, and everything we hold essential to attain that goal, then someone must have set that priority at the highest level imaginable. Transcending righteousness requires an overwhelming cause and sincere consideration before taking any action. Who decides, or are these ends whimsically eccentric? Continue reading
We do not mourn in silence now —
we speak in thunder,
for the dead who did not flee
when the hour was grave and the sky was red.
From Lexington’s frost to Kandahar’s dust,
they stood —
not for glory,
but for the man beside them
and the home they carried in their chest like a last breath.
They were farmers, welders, dreamers, sons —
mothers, lovers, daughters, friends —
and when the call came,
they became the unreturning tide
that washes freedom ashore
at a cost only the fallen truly know. Continue reading
SCOTUS Sides with Trump to Revoke Legal Status from 300k Venezuelans
Come hell or high water, President Trump is going to keep his promise to deport criminal illegal aliens out of your country and god bless him for it.
President Trump is doing everything he can to keep illegal aliens out of this country as well as put an end to Biden era programs that allowed for a mass invasion under the guise of compassion or even “legal status.”
He’s getting a little help from the high court. .. (Continue to full article)
Trump: Executive Order Will Cause Drug Prices to Fall
Trump says prescription drug prices will drop in a matter of weeks due to an executive order he signed.
The order calls on the Department of Health and Human Services, led by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., to broker lower prices for drugs.
If a deal isn’t reached, a new rule will kick in that will tie the price of what the U.S. pays for medications to lower prices paid by other countries… (Continue to full article)
More than half of Americans want to see mass roundups and deportations of undocumented immigrants
Deportation Flights to Venezuela Soar, Outpacing Previous Four-Year Total
At least 3,078 Venezuelans have been deported since January, compared to 3,256 deported over the entire 2019–2023 period under both the Trump and Biden administrations
In just four months, the Trump administration has deported more Venezuelans than during the previous four years combined, according to a new report.
The surge comes as President Donald Trump intensifies immigration enforcement, including the removal of women and children – despite claims that deportations are targeting those with criminal records. According to Venezuelan nonprofit Votoscopio, which tracks repatriation flights, 273 women and 29 children are among the recent deportees… (Continue to full article)
Democrats Push to Strip Trump of Power Over U.S. Marshals as Judges Face Threats
Amid a surge in threats against federal judges, Senate Democrats will formally introduce legislation Thursday to transfer control of the U.S. Marshals Service to the court system itself.
The legislation specifies that the presidential administration would lose its authority over the Marshals. The law enforcement agency is currently part of the Department of Justice, and among other things, it is tasked with protecting federal judges, courthouses and court workers.
Sen. Cory Booker, a New Jersey Democrat who is leading the effort, said the change would help insulate U.S. Marshals from possible interference and politicization by the Trump administration… (Continue to full article)

Lina Maria Orovio-Hernandez allegedly lived under a stolen identity for 20 years, illegally voting and obtaining $400,000 in US benefits
Lina Maria Orovio-Hernandez, 59, also obtained welfare benefits, a REAL ID and eight other state ID’s, the Justice Department said.
Orovio-Hernandez allegedly used the stolen identity to submit a fraudulent voter registration in January 2023, and cast a ballot in last year’s presidential election, prosecutors said. She was captured on surveillance camera at a bank wearing an “I voted” sticker on Nov. 5, 2024, Election Day, according to court documents… (Continue to full article)
Trump Wins Multiple Manufacturing Deals
Trump has announced significant foreign and domestic investments totaling nearly $9 trillion since he took office. Many of the investments reportedly originate from prior announcements, causing critics to express concern about their accuracy. Trump asserted that the commitments demonstrate the success of his economic policies, which have focused on lower taxes, tariffs, energy expansion, and advancements in artificial intelligence.
Trump said, “I think we probably have close to $9 trillion of investments coming into this country.” He added, “If you look at other presidents, there’s never been anything like that.” (Continue to full article)
Svante Myrick recently attacked President Trump’s work for religious freedom, as well as our organization’s work on judicial nominations at the American Family Association Action’s Center for Judicial Renewal.
Our standard for evaluating future federal judges is simple: we seek judges “with the best long-term, demonstrable record of commitment to the constitutional role of judges, which is to decide cases according to the original meaning of the Constitution and legislative texts, and to never legislate from the bench.” Continue reading
Heah cum de Judges…
The Supreme Court has deadlocked on the question of religious charter schools, thanks to four justices who didn’t bother reading what the First Amendment says about separation of church and state.
Four Supreme Court Justices wanted to make it legal for taxpayer dollars to fund religious charter schools.
The Supreme Court produced a 4–4 deadlock on Thursday on the question of whether an Oklahoma religious school could take part in the state’s publicly funded charter school programs. Continue reading
A federal judge blocked U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration from carrying out his executive order to dismantle the U.S. Department of Education and ordered it on Thursday to reinstate employees terminated in a mass layoff.
U.S. District Judge Myong Joun in Boston at the behest of a group of Democratic-led states, school districts and teachers’ unions issued an injunction, opens new tab blocking the department from moving forward with a mass termination announced in March of over 1,300 employees, which would cut its staff by half.

The debate surrounding Artificial Intelligence is extremely deep and broad from several different perspectives on a scientific, ethical and philosophical level that shows much hope for its future while glossing over the pitfalls it presents. As good as it has initially revealed itself to be for many areas of society, I tend to fall in the camp that notes, despite its initial benevolent success, it will ultimately become a tool to enslave all people wherever it is used and unleashed, no matter how much “oversight” its creators believe they have put in place to keep it under their control.

But Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them: “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand. If Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?” ~ Matthew 12:22
It essentially means that if a group or entity is internally divided and at odds with itself, it will eventually fail. This idea was famously used by Abraham Lincoln in his “House Divided” speech, arguing that the United States, with its division over slavery, could not endure as a nation. Continue reading
UnitedHealth Group, one of America’s biggest corporations and a member of the exclusive Dow Jones Industrial Average, is suddenly unraveling.
The crisis engulfing UnitedHealth hit a crescendo this week when CEO Andrew Witty stepped down abruptly for “personal reasons.”
UnitedHealth also swiftly abandoned its financial guidance, blaming skyrocketing medical costs.
And then The Wall Street Journal dropped the hammer, revealing that UnitedHealth is under federal criminal investigation for possible Medicare fraud.
The developments have stunned investors, triggering a dramatic loss of confidence. UnitedHealth’s (UNH) stock has lost half its value – a staggering $288 billion – in the span of a month. Its share price plunged on Thursday to its lowest level since April 2020, during the height of the pandemic. Continue reading
