“If Democrats in the Congress will not act to honor the service of our TSA officers, who are now performing their critical public safety responsibilities without knowing whether they will be able to buy food for their families or pay their rent, then my Administration will take action,” he declared. “As President of the United States, I have determined that these circumstances constitute an emergency situation compromising the Nation’s security.”

Trump's TSA Executive Order Appears to Have Had Immediate Impact at Busiest Airports
Trump's TSA Executive Order Appears to Have Had Immediate Impact at Busiest Airports:
The Strait of Hormuz’s Bitter Lesson for the European Union
The crisis in the Strait of Hormuz reveals a truth that many European policymakers have ignored: Humanity remains structurally dependent on oil. - Watts Up With That? - Dr. Samuel Furfari
- This reality, first highlighted during the 1973 oil shortage and reinforced by the 1979 version – triggered by Iran – continues to be neglected, even openly dismissed, by certain political elites.
- As a former official in the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Energy for 36 years, I have witnessed relentless efforts to promote so-called alternatives to hydrocarbons and their disastrous results.
- Yet, in the face of the current crisis, the EU refuses to recognize its desperate need for fossil fuels.
- In May 2023, Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission, declared that the fossil-fuel-based growth model is “simply obsolete.”
The partial blockade of the Strait of Hormuz starkly exposes the irony of that statement...

The NYT just pulled off one of the fastest narrative flips in journalistic history...Olympic-level hypocrisy.
They didn’t suddenly grow principles. They just realized the target wasn’t on their enemies list anymore. - Flopping Aces@FloppingAces
- Epstein files: “Transparency at all costs! Burn it all down, baby! Release everything!”
- Swalwell file: “Whoa, hold up… there’s private info in here… classified material… this could really hurt him…”
Oh, NOW we suddenly care about privacy?
NOW we clutch our pearls over old investigations?
NOW unverified gossip is a national crisis?
- Pathetic.
The satellites don't lie. The planet is greener today than it was 20 years ago.
This was confirmed by the latest satellite studies of shifts in vegetation by NASA and ESA (European Space Agency). - Peter Clack@PeterDClack
The greening trend is continuing and widening, and 70% is attributed to higher CO2.

IT'S BAAAACK!--Muskegon is moving forward with a major rebuild of M-46 (Apple Avenue) and they’re calling a public meeting next week to “discuss” it.
But buried in the details is the part MDOT is dressing up as “traffic calming measures to improve safety for motorists and pedestrians”: a straight-up reduction from **four lanes to three**, complete with a dedicated left-turn lane. - Muskegon UndergroundBut let’s be real: this isn’t just routine road work...
- They claim this lane-narrowing trick will magically slow traffic and make the road safer.
- We're calling BS.
We’ve seen this playbook before, around Muskegon and in cities across the country.
- Shrink the travel lanes,
- force everyone into fewer options,
- creating backups,
- aggressive merging, and
- longer wait times at lights...

'Trans' illegal alien rapist who attacked 14-year-old boy reaches appalling plea deal with Bragg's office | Blaze Media:
"This plea deal is a disgrace. Six months in jail for raping a child is a gross miscarriage of justice. This pervert was let into our country by the Biden administration and then again released from jail following his arrests for armed robbery, assault with a dangerous weapon, and prostitution," said acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis.
Cuz they want their lies to stand?-----Why don’t journalists circle back to cover retractions? - Retraction Watch
In a paper published last month in the Journal of Documentation, a team of researchers in journalism, social science and data explore how and why journalists report – or don’t report – on scientific retractions.Retraction Watch: In your report, you write, “Journalists frequently cover initial research findings but rarely follow up when these claims are later disconfirmed.” Why do you think that is the case?
Malgorzata Iwaniec-Thompson: Journalists rarely follow up on scientific retractions due to a combination of structural, economic, and professional barriers.
Malgorzata Iwaniec-Thompson: Journalists rarely follow up on scientific retractions due to a combination of structural, economic, and professional barriers.
- First, there is an absence of a systematic process to track retractions; journalists often rely on luck, social media, or informal networks to discover them...
- The second issue is that the reporters operate under intense time pressures and resource constraints, often juggling multiple stories with as little as 15 minutes for verification...
- Lastly, journalists often view their archived work as “best efforts at the time” rather than part of a permanent academic library that requires continuous curation...
MQ-28 Ghost Bat Drone Gains Major European Foothold As Rheinmetall Joins Forces With Boeing
Interestingly, the Rheinmetall press release describes the MQ-28 being “ready to deliver air-to-ground capability to Germany by 2029. - Thomas NewdickA drone of this kind could also be harnessed by other German Eurofighters, which undertake a range of air defense and air-to-ground missions, as well as the F-35A stealth fighters it also has on order.
The F-35 is designed very much with CCAs in mind, with the combination of the stealth jet and complementary drones being a key part of the planned future U.S. Air Force force posture...
Immigrant Rep. Pramila Jayapal Urges 'Reparations' for Illegal Migrants
Immigrant Rep. Pramila Jayapal Urges 'Reparations' for Illegal Migrants:
The redirection of concern from citizens towards illegal migrants is seen across the United States. In Fairfax County, Virginia, for example, the local Democratic prosecutor urged the release of an adult migrant who was accused of sexually groping teenage girls at a high school. The migrant had been allowed to enroll in the school because the local progressives were trying to welcome him into American society.
Many Americans are victimized by migrants, including violent migrants, who are sheltered by Democrat politicians in so-called “sanctuary cities.” The most recent victim of these amnesty zones is Sheridan Gorman, an 18-year-old student who was killed by a Democrat-protected migrant in Chicago.
“The system did not fail Sheridan — that worked exactly as the Democrats intended,” House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) said on March 25, adding:
