Supreme Court hands DOGE and Trump two big victories | Blaze Media

Supreme Court hands DOGE and Trump two big victories | Blaze Media: 

The court found 6-3 that DOGE can have access to records at the Social Security Administration, with Justices Elena Kagan, Sonia Sotomayor, and Ketanji Brown Jackson saying they would have denied the request. The court also ruled 6-3 to pause a lower court order making DOGE responsible for answering FOIA requests. However, the case was sent back to the lower court with a narrower discovery order.

Is this more than a "coincidence"??!!

 

Worth understanding!-----Don't Let CBO Scoring Fool You Charlie Martin

There's been a whole lot of agita from the right-hand side about the "reconciliation bill" — the Big Beautiful Bill — that passed the House a few days ago. - Charlie Martin
A lot of it is based on the CBO scoring the bill as costing $4 trillion dollars in revenue. 

And why does the CBO think that? 

Because the CBO thinks the government is entitled to all the lovely tax money that would come in when the tax cuts from Trump's first term expire. 

• But the BBB went and extended the tax cuts. 

Those rats.
Stephen Miller explains the error:

Of course, along with that, a lot of people are complaining that the BBB didn't codify the DOGE spending cuts.
Which is all well and good, except that there are pretty strict limits on what a reconciliation bill can do...

US government-funded NGOs??!!

So, it appears Zelenskyy gave the go ahead to attack parked Russian nuclear capable bombers without informing @realDonaldTrump 

(if true that our President was not consulted nor informed, this isn’t simply a breach of protocol. It’s a geopolitical insult and a warning sign. If Ukraine is willing to conduct strikes with strategic consequences without notifying the White House, we are no longer allies with coordination issues—we are co-belligerents flying blind)...

FYI, Those bombers that were hit HAVE to be out in full view due to nuclear treaty obligations. 

Zelenskyy took advantage of that...
However, imagine any one of our big bomber bases having the exact same thing done to them...

Chinese national accused of smuggling BIOWEAPON into America | Blaze Media

Chinese national accused of smuggling BIOWEAPON into America | Blaze Media: 

FBI Director Kash Patel made a scary announcement this week — that a Chinese national has been accused of trying to smuggle a dangerous biological pathogen into the United States.

“I can confirm that the FBI arrested a Chinese national within the United States who allegedly smuggled a dangerous biological pathogen into the country,” Patel wrote in a post on X.

According to Patel, Yunqing Jian “is alleged to have smuggled a dangerous fungus called ‘Fusarium graminearum,’ which is an agroterrorism agent, into the U.S. to research at the University of Michigan, where she works.”

Everything You Need to Know about Government, in a Single Story-International Liberty - Dan Mitchell

I just read a story in the Washington Post that perfectly captures the inherent waste and inefficiency of the public sector.
Here are some excerpts.

• The 52-unit building under construction will house people making far below the area’s median income. 
• Half will be newly released from incarceration. 
• But the building’s development cost is enough to make the neighborhood’s wealthier residents blink: $1.2 million per apartment. 

That tab will be picked up in large part by taxpayers... 

The D.C. building, called Ontario Place, will include a rooftop aquaponics farm to produce fresh fruits and vegetables for its tenants, whose rents will be capped at well below market rates...

By the way, it isn't just just D.C. that is a cesspool of waste.
This is quite common in big cities controlled by the left. The article cites absurd projects in Chicago and San Francisco....

Unequal justice!-----Maxine Waters...but the fact she was just assessed a $68K fine for multiple federal election law violations.

Michael Smith - As a preface (or postscript as I have already... | Facebook - Michael Smith

...It was Maxine Waters.

• Not necessarily Mad Max, but the fact she was just assessed a $68K fine for multiple federal election law violations.
• Then I thought about Dinesh D'Souza who, a few years ago was convicted of exceeding campaign finance limits by $20K. His penalty? Eight months of overnight incarceration in a confinement center, $25K fine, mandatory psychiatric counseling, followed by 5 years of probation.

You know the difference.

• Max Max is a prominent, sitting Democrat who will not doubt have her fine paid out of campaign cash. 
• Dinesh is an outspoken conservative who suffered personally.

Two Israeli Diplomats were executed coming out of a Jewish museum in Washington the other day. 

Tragic on its own terms, it was also tragic because it is wholly unremarkable when you realize this is just one more small step up the permission scale and was entirely foreseeable. 

• If you want to assign blame, you have to focus your gaze on today’s Democrat party, which has conflated speech with violence, allowing violence as a response to speech, said that illegal aliens have the full due process rights of people in the criminal justice system, and egged on violent, totalitarian protest from those on the left...

A friend wrote to me, “There’s no difference between today’s Democrats and 1960s radicals.”
Ah! but there is. 

Women have been more radicalized than they were in the 1960s. 

During the 1960s, while women participated, including in the most extreme groups, most were milder than their male peers. 

That’s no longer true. 

There’s been a fundamental change in women’s societal roles from traditional to anti-traditional...

The Supreme Court on Thursday ruled unanimously in favor of an Ohio woman who claimed she was discriminated against for job promotions in favor of gay candidates. The ruling, Ames v.

Michael Shellenberger: How China Gained Control of Solar—And Why It Matters

“It’s now been revealed that the Chinese—who manufacture virtually all of our solar panels, both in the United States and Europe—have been installing cellular radios inside the inverters, which can act as kill switches,”
 says Michael Shellenberger, an investigative journalist, author, founder of Public, and CBR Chair of Politics, Censorship, and Free Speech at the University of Austin...

• In this wide-ranging interview, we dive into key vulnerabilities in America’s energy grid, how Trump is transforming America’s energy future, the current status of the “censorship industrial complex,” as Shellenberger describes it, and his continued fight for government transparency, including around unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs).

Expert warns of CCP threat as Chinese nationals caught with biological pathogen | Fox News

Expert warns of CCP threat as Chinese nationals caught with biological pathogen | Fox News: 

Following news that two Chinese nationals were charged with allegedly smuggling a "dangerous biological pathogen" into the U.S. to study at an American university, Fox News Digital spoke to an expert on China who said the arrests should be a wake-up call to the country.  "I was entirely unsurprised, which is a sad commentary, but it speaks to the Chinese Communist Party, the CCP wants to kill Americans," Michael Sobolik, a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute focusing on U.S. and China relations, told Fox News Digital after FBI Director Kash Patel announced the arrests of the two Chinese nationals.

There is clear evidence!
