Trump Admin to Deport Foreigners Who Come to American Universities and Shill for Terrorists

ASyrian-born Palestinian activist and former Columbia University graduate student was arrested on Saturday and will reportedly have his green card revoked because of his involvement in radical left-wing protests supporting Hamas.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security announced the arrest of Mahmoud Khalil, saying Khalil “led activities aligned to Hamas, a designated terrorist organization.” According to his attorney, Khalil is a permanent resident with a green card.

Federal law prohibits providing “material support or resources” to any designated terrorist organizations.

President Donald Trump said his administration would not tolerate any “pro-terrorist” behavior in a Truth Social post.

“This is the first arrest of many to come. We know there are more students at Columbia and other Universities across the Country who have engaged in pro-terrorist, anti-Semitic, anti-American activity, and the Trump administration will not tolerate it,” Trump said. “We will find, apprehend, and deport these terrorist sympathizers from our country — never to return again.” (Read more from “Trump Admin to Deport Foreigners Who Come to American Universities and Shill for Terrorists” HERE)

Elon Musk Says X Was Knocked Offline by ‘Massive Cyberattack’ That Originated in ‘Ukraine Area’

Billionaire entrepreneur and DOGE chief Elon Musk claimed Monday that X went dark as the result of a “massive cyberattack” that originated in the “Ukraine area.”

“We’re not sure exactly what happened,” Musk told Fox Business Network host Larry Kudlow about the apparent operation targeting his social media platform.

“But there was a massive cyberattack to try to bring down the X system, with IP addresses originating in the Ukraine area,” the world’s richest man added.

Musk, 53, did not immediately provide additional evidence of who may have been responsible.

Cybercriminals have been known to create false IP addresses to impersonate computer systems from different parts of the world, a practice known as “spoofing.” (Read more from “Elon Musk Says X Was Knocked Offline by ‘Massive Cyberattack’ That Originated in ‘Ukraine Area’” HERE)

Ontario Imposes 25% Tariffs on Electricity Exports to U.S. In Response to Trump Planned Tariffs

Ontario Premier Doug Ford announced that a 25 percent surcharge would be applied to electricity exports to the United States, in response to President Donald Trump’s planned tariffs on Canada and Mexico.

In a press release from the Office of the Premier, it was revealed that the 25 percent tariffs on electricity exports to the U.S. would begin on Monday, and that roughly “1.5 million homes and businesses” in states such as Minnesota, New York, and Michigan would be affected.

The surcharge is expected to “cost up to $400,000 every day” that it remains in effect, according to the press release.

“President Trump’s tariffs are a disaster for the U.S. economy,” Ford said in a statement. “They’re making life more expensive for American families and businesses. Until the threat of tariffs is gone for good, Ontario won’t back down. We’ll stand strong, use every tool in our toolkit and do whatever it takes to protect Ontario.”

In November 2024, Trump announced that he would impose 25 percent tariffs on all products into the U.S. from Canada and Mexico, adding that the tariffs would “remain in effect” until the countries addressed the flow of drugs, such as fentanyl and illegal aliens across the borders.

Former Canadian Deputy Prime Minister Spewed This Totally Bonkers Anti-Trump Line

As Sarah wrote yesterday, Mark Carney is the new leader of Canada’s Labour Party and is insane. But before the leadership election, Chrystia Freeland, the former deputy prime minister, ran for the position, where she said that British nukes could protect Canada from Donald Trump (via The Telegraph):

Canada should seek closer ties with Britain because its nuclear weapons can help protect the country against Donald Trump, a Liberal party leader running to replace Justin Trudeau has said.

Chrystia Freeland, the former deputy prime minister under Mr Trudeau, said that US president is “clearly threatening our sovereignty” with his campaign to absorb Canada as the 51st state of America.

In order to “guarantee our security”, Ms Freeland said she would build closer security partnerships with European Nato allies and “I would be sure that France and Britain were there, who possess nuclear weapons”.

“I would be working urgently with those partners to build a closer security relationship… in a time when the United States can be a threat,” said the ex-foreign minister and finance minister at the final Liberal leadership debate…

Dem Senator Ditches Wife for CEO of Democrat Media Operation

Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) has become more vocal, exposing voters to his insufferable tendencies. Elitism thy name is Murphy. The guy is a left-wing blowhard who doesn’t do much but whine. If it’s not that, it’s leading attacks against the Second Amendment. You don’t need to do much to be elected from Connecticut as a Democrat. Yet, Mr. Murphy might be another example of the Democrat-media complex at work literally.

He recently left his wife and shacked up with the CEO of a pro-Democrat news operation. Both parties declined to comment for Semafor:

One of the Democratic Party’s most notable digital media leaders is dating one of the party’s most media-friendly lawmakers, according to a Washington Democrat and a pointed Instagram post.

Tara McGowan, the CEO of the network of digital media sites known as Courier Newsroom, has been linked to Connecticut Sen. Chris Murphy, who recently separated from his wife. McGowan posted a selfie of the duo last week on her private Instagram, captioned “not postponing joy,” which was shared with Semafor.

In recent months, Murphy has become one of the most visible Democratic lawmakers, speaking out against President Donald Trump and Elon Musk in television and digital media interviews and posting his own vertical videos across social media — taking a page out of a media playbook that McGowan and other Democratic digital strategists have pushed since Trump’s victory in November.

Senators Urge Colleagues, Trump To Disregard Far-Left American Bar Association

The American Bar Association has long been a hive of leftist thought and activism. But while the nearly 150-year-old “national voice for the legal profession” claims it’s comitted to to “defending liberty and pursuing justice,” it fails on both counts. The ABA has stood silent as far-left allies weaponized the government against their political enemies, and it has rallied around discriminatory policies in the name of “social justice.”

Now a group of lawmakers led by Sen. Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., is urging Senate colleagues to “disregard ABA recommendations on pending legislation or nominees.”

“It is a failed institution that is incapable of impartially rating nominees and making legislative recommendations,” states a letter from six conservative senators to American Bar Association President William R. Bay. “As such, we will not consider any ABA recommendations on pending legislation or nominees, and we call upon our colleagues to do the same.”

The letter, first obtained by The Federalist, is signed by Schmitt and fellow senators Mike Lee, R-Utah, Ted Cruz, R-Texas, Josh Hawley, R-Mo., Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., and Bernie Moreno, R-Ohio. It hammers a hypocritical legal association that has been on a crusade against Trump 2.0 for what the ABA bills as “wide-scale affronts of the law,” even as it cheered on President Trump’s leftist predecessors for trampling the Constitution.

Because it is a “biased and ideologically captured institution,” the senators assert the ABA has — in legal parlance — no standing in advising Congress, particularly in its ratings on judicial nominees and pending legislation. The lawmakers also are calling on the president and the Department of Justice “to remove the ABA from the judicial nomination process entirely.” (Read more from “Senators Urge Colleagues, Trump To Disregard Far-Left American Bar Association” HERE)

‘God Makes No Mistakes’: Major Decision for Teacher Fired for Not Using Student’s Trans Pronouns

A Wisconsin school district agreed to pay out $20,000 to a teacher who was terminated for refusing to use preferred names and pronouns for transgender students.

Jordan Cernek, an English teacher, sued the Argyle School District in July 2024 after his contract was not renewed, alleging the district violated his right to free exercise of his religion and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

“Mr. Cernek has a sincerely held religious belief that God makes no mistakes when it comes to sex and gender and that calling a transgender student by a name or pronouns at odds with their biological sex would cause Mr. Cernek to affirm that God made a mistake in creating a transgender person as a male or a female,” the lawsuit filed by the Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty stated. “In Mr. Cernek’s religious view, affirming a transgender person’s identity through the use of preferred names and pronouns would be speaking a falsehood and violate his religious beliefs.”

The case was dismissed in February after parties reached the settlement, according to court records. (Read more from “‘God Makes No Mistakes’: Major Decision for Teacher Fired for Not Using Student’s Trans Pronouns” HERE)

Obamas ‘Soft Launching’ a Divorce?

Are the Obamas ‘soft launching’ a divorce?

Rumors the Obamas were headed for a divorce began in December after Michelle Obama skipped Jimmy Carter’s funeral and announced she wouldn’t be attending Trump’s inauguration.

It was also recently reported that Barack and Michelle Obama’s largest donors have dropped them amid rumors about their marriage.

Last month Meghan McCain added fuel to the long-swirling speculation surrounding the marriage of Barack and Michelle Obama, claiming that her sources have confirmed the former first couple is living “separate lives.”

“I have been hearing this rumor that the Obamas are getting a divorce from very reputable people,” McCain revealed on political reporter Tara Palmeri’s podcast, “Somebody’s Gotta Win with Tara Palmeri.”

“I’m not talking about TMZ. I’m not talking about Perez Hilton, although I love him, he’s my friend. I’m talking about serious journalists telling me the divorce rumors are true.” (Read more from “Obamas ‘Soft Launching’ a Divorce?” HERE)

Trump: Elon Musk Has ‘Done a Great Job’

During this week’s broadcast of Fox News Channel’s “Sunday Morning Futures,” President Donald Trump dismissed naysayers who claimed friction between him and Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) head Elon Musk.

Trump gave Musk his vote of confidence despite opponents claiming he was “overstepping.”

“Look, the Democrats say that Elon Musk and DOGE are overstepping their bounds. You’re right. What Elon Musk and DOGE have been able to uncover is unbelievable,” host Maria Bartiromo said. “Half of us did not even realize.
