SCOTUS Punts on Alien Enemies Act, Says Gangsters Deserve Time to Hire Lawyers

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Supreme Court ruled that the Trump administration must provide alleged Venezuelan Tren de Aragua (TdA) gang members with more notice, prior to deporting them under the 1798 Alien Enemies Act (AEA).

In a 7-2 decision on Friday, the Supreme Court found that Venezuelan migrants facing deportation under the AEA had not received enough notice regarding their deportation, while also not weighing in on whether or not the Trump administration was able to deport suspect illegal alien gang members, according to CNBC.

Supreme Court Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas dissented.

“Under these circumstances, notice roughly 24 hours before removal, devoid of information about how to exercise due process rights to contest that removal, surely does not pass muster,” the majority justices wrote in the ruling.

Justice Alito, whom Justice Thomas joined, said the court has no role in setting rules for the AEA implementation. (Read more from “SCOTUS Punts on Alien Enemies Act, Says Gangsters Deserve Time to Hire Lawyers” HERE)

FBI Director Confirms Foiled ISIS Attack on US Soil

/2 Comments/in , , /by

By Townhall. FBI Director Kash Patel confirmed Thursday that an ISIS plot to murder Americans in Michigan was foiled.

“I can now confirm reports that our FBI teams and partners foiled an attempted ISIS attack on one of our U.S. military bases in Warren, Michigan,” Patel announced on X. “The individual, Ammar Abdulmajid-Mohamed Said, plotted a mass shooting at the U.S. Army’s Tank-Automotive & Armaments Command (TACOM) facility before multiple undercover law enforcement officers obtained information of his plans.”

“Said was arrested this week and will now face charges of supporting a foreign terrorist organization, among others,” he continued. “Our agents, intelligence teams, and partners acted quickly — and they saved lives. Well done to all on executing the mission.”

According to the Department of Justice, Said was a former member of the Michigan National Guard.

“This defendant is charged with planning a deadly attack on a U.S. military base here at home for ISIS,” DOJ National Security Division Director Sue Bai added in a statement. “Thanks to the tireless efforts of law enforcement, we foiled the attack before lives were lost. We will not hesitate to bring the full force of the Department to find and prosecute those who seek to harm our men and women in the military and to protect all Americans.”

FBI Thwarts ISIS-Inspired Attack on US Army Base; Former National Guard Member Charged

By ABC News. A former member of the Michigan Army National Guard has been arrested after he allegedly tried to carry out a plan to conduct a mass shooting at a U.S. military base in Michigan on behalf of the ISIS terrorist organization, the Justice Department said Wednesday.

Ammar Abdulmajid-Mohamed Said, 19, was arrested on Tuesday, which authorities say was the scheduled day of the attack, after he visited an area near the military base and launched a drone in support of the attack plan, according to the Justice Department.

Said allegedly planned to attack the Army’s Tank-Automotive and Armaments Command, which is located in a Detroit suburb and manages the Army’s supply chain for tanks. According to federal prosecutors, Said offered to help undercover law enforcement officers carry out the attack by training them to use firearms and make Molotov cocktails and by providing armor-piercing ammunition and magazines for the attack.

Said has been charged with attempting to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization and with distributing information related to a destructive device. Court documents did not list an attorney for Said.

Said spent two years in the Michigan Army National Guard until he was discharged in December, according to court documents. (Read more from “FBI Thwarts ISIS-Inspired Attack on US Army Base; Former National Guard Member Charged” HERE)

Tired All the Time? A Silent but Serious Health Issue Could Be to Blame

/0 Comments/in , , /by

In a study published this month in Neurology, researchers found a link between lingering fatigue and a transient ischemic attack (TIA), commonly known as a “ministroke.” . . .

TIA is a temporary disruption of blood flow to the brain, spurring stroke-like symptoms that typically last two to 15 minutes.

People who have them are typically at higher risk of having a full-blown stroke in the near future.

And, as the new study suggests, TIA patients may actually suffer some more long-term effects, including exhaustion.

“People with a transient ischemic attack can have symptoms such as face drooping, arm weakness, or slurred speech, and these resolve within a day,” said study author Boris Modrau, MD, Ph.D., of Aalborg University Hospital in Denmark.

“However, some have reported continued challenges, including reduced quality of life, thinking problems, depression, anxiety and fatigue. Our study found that for some people, fatigue was a common symptom that lasted up to one year after the transient ischemic attack.” (Read more from “Tired All the Time?

Inflation Numbers Showed Trump Was Right About Egg Prices And CNN Isn’t Taking It Well

/0 Comments/in , /by

Data released Tuesday shows that egg prices dropped 12.7 percent last month — the “biggest monthly decline since 1984.” The report follows weeks of President Donald Trump telling Americans that egg prices were falling — welcome news after the cost of eggs rose for 17 out of the past 19 months, according to CNN. But the left-wing legacy outlet is scrambling to process the eggcellent news.

CNN’s David Goldman wrote Tuesday that “For months, President Donald Trump has falsely claimed that egg prices are tumbling. It wasn’t true then, but it’s true now.”

Goldman continues:

“Despite Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins’ far more conservative estimate that egg prices would normalize in the summer, Trump last month said, ‘as you know, the cost of eggs has come down like 93, 94% since we took office.’ Those percentage declines Trump stated are not close to accurate – but we now know that consumer egg prices were, indeed, falling sharply when Trump made those remarks (the Consumer Price Index data wasn’t out yet to confirm or deny Trump’s claims).”

CNN admits egg prices “were, indeed, falling sharply when Trump made those remarks,” but a few sentences later bizarrely still claims the “timing of his claim” was wrong.

Translation: Trump said something that turned out to be true (egg prices fell), but because we didn’t have the same data at the exact moment Trump said it, he was wrong. (Read more from “Inflation Numbers Showed Trump Was Right About Egg Prices And CNN Isn’t Taking It Well” HERE)

Democrat ‘Election Deniers’ Try To Overturn Election Of Their Own Party Vice Chair

/0 Comments/in , /by

For years, Democrats have decried Republicans as “election deniers,” even using the phrase to justify lawfare against then-former President Donald Trump. But as it turns out, when elections don’t go their way suddenly the process is flawed and democracy is negotiable.

On Monday, the credentials committee of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) voted to overturn the results of an election that led to 25-year-old David Hogg being selected as a party vice chair. (Hogg survived the 2018 Parkland School shooting.)

But the DNC committee argued the election did not follow proper parliamentary procedures. The decision “will put the issue before the full body of the Democratic National Committee,” according to The New York Times. The DNC will then decide “whether to force Mr. Hogg and a second vice chair, Malcolm Kenyatta, to run again in another election later this year,” according to the report.

The committee moved to deny the election results after one of the losing vice chair candidates, Kalyn Free, claimed the party “had wrongly combined two separate questions into a single vote, putting at a disadvantage the female candidates because of the party’s gender-parity rules,” according to The Times.

Dem Megadonor Who Is Fighting Trump’s Agenda Is Quite the Alleged Sexual Harasser

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Do you know who Hansjörg Wyss is? Frankly, I did not. At first, it sounded like he was some Nazi war criminal, but he’s not. He’s actually a Temu version of George Soros. He’s a Swiss billionaire who’s been funneling hordes of cash to progressive groups in the United States, whose goal is to derail the Trump agenda, specifically the tax cuts that would benefit working families (via NY Post):

A Swiss billionaire is funneling his money into a pop-up progressive advocacy group claiming to support “working families” and denouncing President Trump’s plans to extend tax cuts as a giveaway to the ultra-rich.

Families Over Billionaires, which launched when Trump returned to the White House in January, was set up as a temporary entity to oppose the extension of Trump’s signature 2017 tax legislation — but its “eight-figure” fundraising campaign, through an array of pass-through organizations, is backed by the very wealthy.

That’s because the fledgling Families for Billionaires, which doesn’t even have a donation option on its website for the public, is actually a trade name of the massive liberal dark money Sixteen Thirty Fund, according to business records filed in Washington, DC.

Sixteen Thirty has received $280 million from the Berger Action Fund, an advocacy group that works with Swiss billionaire Hansjorg Wyss’ eponymous Wyss Foundation, past reports and disclosures from its affiliated groups show.

And what do you think happened to him recently? Remember the ‘Me Too’ moment, or movement, that collapsed once all the creepy men exposed turned out to be liberal, wealthy, and powerful? Les Moonves, the CEO of CBS Corporation, lost his job over this feminist reckoning that mostly shot inside the ship. Too many hand grenades were tossed inside the tent, so this witch hunt went away. Sort of like how Stop Asian Hate died during the COVID pandemic since it was virtually all blacks who were assaulting Asians nationwide.

John Kennedy Compares Qatar to Hannibal Lecter as Trump Continues Middle East Tour

/0 Comments/in , /by

Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) said he doesn’t completely trust Qatar as an ally following President Donald Trump‘s visit to the Middle Eastern country.

Qatar gifted the United States a $400 million jet that Trump accepted, immediately raising ethical and constitutional concerns.

“American foreign policy is an enduring struggle between values and interests. We know American values, freedom, the rule of law, personal responsibility, merit, and equal opportunity, but not all countries, most countries, don’t share those values. Take Qatar, for example, they don’t share any of those values,” Kennedy said Thursday on Fox Business’s Varney & Co. “Do I trust Qatar? Of course not. They will eat your liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti.”

Kennedy was referencing the movie Silence of the Lambs, in which the main character, Hannibal Lecter, describes eating a human liver with fava beans and a glass of Chianti. (Read more from “John Kennedy Compares Qatar to Hannibal Lecter as Trump Continues Middle East Tour” HERE)

US and China Agree to Slash Tariffs Temporarily After Trade Talks

/0 Comments/in , /by

The United States and China agreed Monday to a 90-day truce in their raging trade war — with each agreeing for now to slash reciprocal tariffs by more than 100 percentage points, bringing China’s duty rate down to just 10%.

Under the agreement, the US will drop its 145% tariff rate on most Chinese goods to 30%, while China will lower its rate to 10% from 125%, officials said.

The agreement also includes a mechanism for talks toward a permanent deal to continue — and the two sides spoke about how they will both address the flow of fentanyl from China to the US, a White House readout of the agreement read.

“The relationship is very, very good. I’ll speak with President Xi [Jinping] maybe at the end of the week,” Trump told reporters, adding that “to me, the biggest thing that came out of that meeting is they’ve agreed — now we have to get it papered — but they’ve agreed to open up China.”

The president also warned that if China doesn’t agree to a final deal in 90 days, the US tariff rate would raise to “substantially higher” than the current 30%.

“I think they’re going to follow,” Trump predicted. “I think they want [a deal] very badly.” (Read more from “US and China Agree to Slash Tariffs Temporarily After Trade Talks” HERE)

Supreme Court Hears Arguments in Case Over Trump’s Birthright Citizenship Order

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Supreme Court is hearing its first set of Trump-related arguments in the second Trump presidency. The case stems from the executive order President Donald Trump issued on his first day in office that would deny citizenship to children born on U.S. soil to parents who are in the country illegally or temporarily. The executive order marks a major change to the provision of the 14th Amendment that grants citizenship to people born in the United States, with just a couple of exceptions.

Immigrants, rights groups and states sued almost immediately to challenge the executive order. Federal judges have uniformly cast doubt on Trump’s reading of the Citizenship Clause. Three judges have blocked the order from taking effect anywhere in the U.S., including U.S. District Judge John Coughenour. “I’ve been on the bench for over four decades. I can’t remember another case where the question presented was as clear as this one is. This is a blatantly unconstitutional order,” Coughenour said at a hearing in his Seattle courtroom.

The Supreme Court is taking up emergency appeals filed by the Trump administration asking to be able to enforce the executive order in most of the country, at least while lawsuits over the order proceed. The constitutionality of the order is not before the court just yet. Instead, the justices are looking at potentially limiting the authority of individual judges to issue rulings that apply throughout the United States. These are known as nationwide, or universal, injunctions. (Read more from “Supreme Court Hears Arguments in Case Over Trump’s Birthright Citizenship Order” HERE)

Joe Rogan Passionately Explains Christ’s Resurrection: ‘I’m Sticking With Jesus’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Podcast king Joe Rogan defended the Christian worldview and the life and death of Jesus Christ and casts doubts on the Big Bang theory in his recent podcast.

While speaking to TikToker Cody Tucker, Rogan raised questions about the Big Bang theory, criticizing some of the assumptions behind the assumptions about how the universe began, especially the idea that everything came from nothing.

“There’s always been something. Wouldn’t it be crazier if there wasn’t something at one point in time? That seems even crazier than there always has been something,” Rogan said.

“There couldn’t be nothing, and then all the sudden everything,” the podcaster added.

Tucker wondered if perhaps someone “snapped his fingers” to start it all, to which Rogan replied, “exactly.”
