A giant diff!

 


This woman says she was a paid protester at a Hands Off Protest. She details what she had to do to get paid:

"I was one of the paid protesters at the April 5th liberal protest, and so I just wanted to come on and talk about my experience, what I had to do to get paid, and how much I got paid.: - Donald Trump For President
So, there were two kind of parts to it. 
The first was obviously just showing up...
  • And yeah, I got paid. 
  • I got paid $100 for going to the protest, and then I got paid an extra $10 for bringing the sign. 
And like overall, it was a pretty good experience, like the people were pretty nice, everyone smelled really good, which like surprised me...


A worthy conversation!

 


Incompetence as bad as theft!-----Michigan’s outdated food stamp cards cost poor families $846K in stolen benefits

State hasn’t adopted chipped cards six months after fed’s suggestion - Scott McClallen
  • Poor Michigan families had more than $846,856 stolen from them in fiscal year 2025 because the food stamp program in the state hasn’t updated its card technology from magnetic stripes to chips.
  • This lax security protocol allows criminals to drain food stamp accounts, sometimes from halfway around the world...
The state health department hasn’t responded to multiple inquiries in the last three weeks about why it hasn’t upgraded its security via chipped cards or how much it would cost...

Left-Wingers Are Now Coming for Your Dogs Because All Joy Must Be Crushed By Bonchie

You had to know it was coming at some point.
Left-wingers have targeted everything else at this point to soothe their deranged ideology, and it was just a matter of time before man's best friend ended up in the crosshairs. 
  • Yes, after destroying your childhood memories through various reimaginings of everything you held dear, they're now coming after your dog...

Armed men storm South African church during sermon to kidnap American pastor in front of his wife and children, officials say | Blaze Media

Armed men stormed into a church in South Africa last week and kidnapped an American pastor from Tennessee, according to authorities.

Late Thursday, 34-year-old pastor Josh Sullivan was giving a sermon for about 30 people — including his wife, Meagan, and their six children — at the Fellowship Baptist Church in Motherwell, a township near the seaport city of Gqeberha in the country's Eastern Cape province.

I have just read an incredibly shocking article on Substack at ‘2nd Smartest Guy in the Room’ by Frank Bergman.

It’s about a recent study analysing life expectancy changes after the COVID experimental gene therapy ‘vaccines’.  - Daniel Jupp
Here’s a quote:
  • “The explosive study was conducted by a team of leading Italian researchers led by Professor Marco Alessandria of the University of Turin.
  • The bombshell findings of Prof. Alessandria and his team were published in the renowned Swiss medical journal MDPI.
  • The study has further confirmed warnings from leading experts about the long-term impact of the Covid mRNA injections.
The researchers found that the Covid-vaxxed suffered a “statistically significant” loss of life expectancy after two or more doses.

State of Maine Referred to DOJ After Refusing to Sign Title IX Agreement

State of Maine Referred to DOJ After Refusing to Sign Title IX Agreement

Less than two months after Maine Democratic Gov. Janet Mills challenged President Donald Trump with a defiant “we’ll see you in court,” Mills might be getting her wish.

The federal Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights has referred the Pine Tree State to the Justice Department for enforcement action over Maine’s refusal to comply with policies on banning males from playing in female sports, WMTW-TV reported Friday.

And it could cost Maine dearly.

How military coups begin!-----The Pentagon Must Go on the Offensive to Defeat Politicized Officers

That Space Force colonel in command in Greenland – well, formerly in command in Greenland – who ran her fool mouth to undermine her commander-in-chief demonstrates an all-too-common problem with today’s senior military officers. - Kurt Schlichter 
We keep seeing these passive-aggressive, and not so passively aggressive, officers acting out and throwing childish tantrums of resistance to the President that the people of the United States elected. 
It’s inconceivable to those of us from the military who won the Cold War; we stayed the hell out of politics. 
Somehow, they must have missed that civilian control block of instruction; non-partisanship is a vital principle of our officer corps. 
  • To be political on duty is a violation of our oaths. 
  • It’s a violation of our ethos as officers
  • And it’s got to be brutally crushed – even Barack Obama understood that when he properly canned General Stanley McChrystal for having a staff that thought it was okay to diss the President to reporters...

More incidents of Planned Parenthood failing to report suspected sex abuse * WorldNetDaily * by Cassy Cooke, Live Action News

More incidents of Planned Parenthood failing to report suspected sex abuse * WorldNetDaily * by Cassy Cooke, Live Action News

Planned Parenthood, the largest abortion chain in the U.S., continues to receive hundreds of millions of dollars in taxpayer funding. Specifically, according to its latest annual report, the abortion giant received nearly $700 million in that year alone. Yet there are multitudes of reasons why Planned Parenthood should be defunded. Planned Parenthood has been caught covering up the sexual abuse of children, with multiple victims testifying over a number of years as to how Planned Parenthood aborted their children and returned them to their abusers. Over 15 years ago, Live Action founder and president Lila Rose went undercover at Planned Parenthood facilities across the country, posing as a teen involved with a much older sexual partner.

READ ALL!-----How Democrats used NGOs to end-run voters: A ‘parallel government’ By Glenn H. Reynolds

And one of our society’s biggest falsehoods-in-a-name: “Non-governmental organizations.” - Glenn H. Reynolds 
  • Until recently these groups have been widely seen as international, idealized versions of domestic non-profits.
We thought of them as do-good organizations set up by people who really care — about the environment, or poor people, or children, or freedom.
We imagined they raise money, help the downtrodden, send out press releases and engage in other private activities to promote the causes they favor.
They’re not government entities, we thought — the very name says that — but a species of private charity whose good intentions deserve the benefit of any doubt.
Perhaps some NGOs do operate in that way.
  • But as we’ve learned recently, partly as the result of Department of Government Efficiency digging, many “non-governmental” entities are really just fronts for government activities that Americans would never stand for if Washington attempted them directly...

Navigating a changing military recruitment environment * WorldNetDaily * by Beth Asch, Real Clear Wire

In a significant shift, last year saw gains in military recruiting across the services and most met their recruiting goals for the first time in years. While the improvement has not yet been the subject of rigorous statistical research, steps taken by Pentagon and the Congress to provide incentives for potential enlistees that are consistent with what past research shows are effective.

Justifying violence!

 


The Case For Not Correcting The "Mistake" Of Deporting An El Salvadoran To El Salvador

This is a battle between Article II and Article III authorities, but the better case rests with the President's view of foreign policy needs. - Shipwreckedcrew 
Let me start with some undisputed facts.
  • First, Kilmar Abrego Garcia was an illegal alien found by the Immigration Courts to be subject to removal from the United States. He has no right to return to or remain in the United States.
  • Second, all during the removal proceedings Abrego Garcia was detained. The initial detention was based upon a finding — supported by the evidence presented — that he was a member of MS-13. That finding was later upheld by the Bureau of Immigration Appeals...
  • Third, after being detained pending removal, Abrego Garcia sought three forms of relief in connection with the Order of Removal — he sought asylum, he sought protection under the Convention Against Torture, and he sought Withholding of Removal...
His asylum claim was rejected because it was filed more than one year after he entered the US — he was in the U.S. for seven years, from 2012 to 2019, before he applied. 
His claim under the Convention Against Torture was denied because he could not make a factual basis in 2019 that he had a fear of torture by the Salvadoran government, and that is the harm to be avoided under the CAT.
Finally, he was granted “Withholding of Removal” — WOR. Much like asylum claims, WOR is based on a fear of persecution if returned to one’s home country. But while asylum grants the right to remain in the U.S., the relief under WOR is to not be returned to your own country — you still get deported...

Instapundit - FUNDAMENTALLY TRANSFORMED: How Sweden’s multicultural dream went fatally wrong

Why, in a land that prides itself on welcoming migrants, are so many gang members from migrant communities? -  

Barely a week passes in Sweden today without a teenager being arrested for such a hit, keeping Salihu extremely busy, and the public in the grip of a national crisis like no other before it. A softly-spoken former tabloid journalist, the 41-year-old could be a character from a Scandi-noir novel, shining light in society’s darker corners. The body count on his beat, though, is far higher than any Stieg Larsson novel, and holds out little prospect of a satisfactory ending.

For the story he has pursued for the last decade is, in effect, one giant, unsolved murder mystery: 

  • why has Sweden, long the envy of the rest of Europe for its peace and prosperity, suddenly seeing so many gangland killings?...

Earlier: Nearly two thirds of convicted rapists in Sweden are migrants or second generation immigrants.

Assassination chic: Survey shows majority of progressives say political violence justified | The College Fix

The ‘peace, tolerance, and love’ folks are charlatans - Dave Huber 
A new survey shows that over half of self-identified progressives believe “at least somewhat” that killing President Trump is a justifiable action.
The report by the Network Contagion Research Institute and Rutgers University Social Perception Lab notes that after the first Trump assassination attempt last July, “tolerance – and even advocacy – for political violence appears to have surged, especially among politically left-leaning segments of the population.”...
Specific findings of the report include:
  • — Almost 50 percent of “left-of-center” respondents said murdering Elon Musk was at least “partially justifiable.”
  • — Over 57 percent agreed at least somewhat that destruction of Tesla dealerships is a legitimate action.
  • — The “strongest predictors” of violence towards Musk are “far-left political identity” and “left-wing authoritarianism.”
  • — Time spent on the social media platform BlueSky also is a “significant predictor” of justifying violence.

Why are so many fools elected to rule??!!

 


Plugged in, checked out: The Dept. of Energy needs a reality surge | Blaze Media

Plugged in, checked out: The Dept. of Energy needs a reality surge | Blaze Media

The Department of Energy needs a complete overhaul.

Congress established the DOE in 1977 in response to the 1973 oil crisis, consolidating a patchwork of energy-related programs under one roof. The department took over the management of nuclear programs, national research labs, and a variety of alternative energy efforts. Its 2025 budget tops $50 billion. It supports 14,000 employees and a staggering 95,000 contractors across 83 field locations.

The Department of Government Efficiency should scrutinize the DOE’s effectiveness like any other federal agency. But this department demands a different kind of review. The issue isn’t just waste or mismanagement. It’s mission.

Did You See Everyone Pile on CNN in the Oval Office Today?

This exchange is why we elected Donald Trump. - Matt Vespa 
  • Nayib Bukele, El Salvador’s president, visited the White House, where the media opted to go with the Abrego Garcia story. 
  • This illegal alien was deported to El Salvador, his home country. 
The media and the Democrats want him back—he’s not coming back. 
President Bukele shot down that notion, mocking the question, calling it “preposterous.”
“The question is preposterous," he said. "How can I smuggle a terrorist into the United States? I don't have the power to return him to the United States."
