Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem reported Monday that her agency has identified people who have been leaking the times and locations of Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids.
The Michigan State Police tested 12 vehicles before picking a 2024 Ford Mustang Mach-E AWD for the State Security Operations Section’s first electric vehicle...
The vehicle will be used by state properties security officers, who provide armed security coverage for state properties, including the Capitol and the governor's mansion. “This is an exciting opportunity for us to research, in real time, how a battery electric vehicle performs on patrol,” MSP Director Col. James F. Grady II said in a January statement...
Even though the DOGE just revealed that the U.S. Treasury spent $4.7 trillion in untraceable payments, including Social Security payments to ineligible, dead, and nonexistent people, still this subterranean government is “bringing suit after suit after suit … in cherry-picked communities — that is, heavily Democrat communities with Democrat federal district judges, who are, in most cases, giving them what they want to slow down the progress, to kill the momentum, to stop [the DOGE] from looking at the data,” he explains.
“This cabal of radical left-wing judges, which is really a super-legislature,” Levin says, may claim that it’s the Trump administration and the DOGE that are violating the Constitution, but the truth is plain: There’s no federal law stopping the executive branch from auditing itself or looking at its own data.
There is, however, ample evidence that the actions taken by these lower courts are indeed unconstitutional.
Let’s look at a few of the reasons why this might be a good thing to consider.
The Science
The science of human-caused climate change is much more uncertain that you have been led to believe. The globally-averaged surface temperature of Earth seems to have warmed by 1 deg. C or so in the last century...But whatever the level of warming, it might well be mostly human-caused.
But we don’t really know.
As I keep pointing out, the global energy imbalance caused by increasing human-caused CO2 emissions (yes, I believe we are the cause) is smaller than the accuracy with which we know natural energy flows in the climate system. This means recent warming could be mostly natural and we would never know it. I’m not claiming that is the case, only that there are uncertainties in climate science that are seldom if ever discussed...
Level 1 SES executives received $180,000 annually in salary, with the top level, Level 5, receiving $246,400 annually...
The average federal employee salary is $106,382, according to OPM data. The median average household income for all Americans is $75,149, according to the Census Bureau.
Virtually all SES employees are rated either “Outstanding” or “Exceeds Fully Successful,” with few being rated as “Minimally Successful” or “Unsuccessful.”
Ezell said that fact means “senior executive ratings are systematically inflated, and poor performers are not being held accountable through a rigorous appraisal process.”...
Housing and Urban Development Secretary Scott Turner opened President Donald Trump’s first Cabinet meeting of his second term on Wednesday at the White House with an inspiring Christian prayer.
In the room were his appointed Cabinet secretaries, 18 of whom have been confirmed by the Senate so far.
Trump asked Turner to open the meeting in prayer as the official stood next to him in the West Wing’s Cabinet room.
1. Russia is absolutely in the wrong for invading Ukraine... 2. Ukraine is not going to be able to win the war if the definition of winning the war is recovering all the conquered Ukrainian territory... 4. Ukraine is an unbelievably corrupt country, and the idea that no substantial portion of our aid money has been stolen is ridiculous... 6. China is a substantially greater threat to the United States than Russia in the macro...
The Education Department also sent a "Dear Colleague" letter clarifying that it will enforce Title IX protections on the basis of biological sex in K-12 schools and on college campuses. This followed a judge's ruling striking down the Biden administration's attempted rewrite of Title IX, which would have established access to women's spaces based on gender identity, rather than sex.
The U.S. Department of Education's Office of General Counsel has also urged the organizations that oversee college and high school sports to give female athletes honors unfairly lost to biological males.
In a Tuesday night vote, House lawmakers voted 75-70 to censure [Rep. Laurel] Libby.
"Sharing images of kids online without their consent is a clear violation of the bond of trust and respect between citizens and their Legislators...House Speaker Ryan Fecteau (D-Biddeford) said.
Already, video of Libby's censure being formally announced to her by the male speaker of the Maine House, as well as video of her trying to defend herself on the House floor and again repeatedly being silenced by Democrats, are both going viral..
Carr also spoke about some of the reforms he has already enacted. Prior to his becoming chair, Carr noted, DEI was the second-most highly prioritized core value of the FCC. Since then, Trump has issued an executive order uprooting DEI from all federal entities, and the FCC has followed suit.
"We've ended the FCC promotion of DEI," Carr said. "You would be outraged if you realized how much promoting DEI had been embedded in FCC work. ... We were spending millions and millions of dollars promoting DEI. Meanwhile, what fell by the wayside was the FCC's actual core work — and doing it competently — of connecting Americans."
