@POTUS just signed an order to crack down on illegal “straw donor” and foreign contributions in U.S. elections — following reports and congressional investigations regarding potentially unlawful activities through ActBlue and other online fundraising platforms.
Here is the text of the memorandum:

Well well well, look at the alleged Sen. Ruben Gallego’s scared text message begging for money to fight off the Act Blue investigation of his fundraising.

Researchers Discover Sen. Ruben Gallego Benefited from ‘Smurfing’ Contributions

He is so corrupt… the slimebag left his pregnant wife for a DC-political-woman-of-some-persuasion-or-another –
and his father is a convicted cartel operative… call for a dump truck there’s a whole lotta dirt under his rug

Consider the two recent examples in the news when thinking of the staff and land mines planted by the democrats.
The case of the MS-13 “Maryland Dad” … the DoJ attorney assigned to the case is the one who created the “he was shipped off by mistake” battle cry when she blurted out these very same words in court and again in public …. before she was FIRED.
The DoD senior staffer who insulted the President and Secretary Hegseth as well as promised to resist, IN PUBLIC. still waiting to hear he was fired.
Sock Puppet JoeBama’s AUTO PEN was used to hire over 40,000 new employees during his last months in office, just as Obama did in 2016. These are the new hires and probationary Federal Employees being defended via lawfare in the Federal Courts.
Nearly every one of the 3+ MILLION employees of the Executive branch is a potential land mine. The “Republicans” in Congress know this and helped plant them or allowed them to be planted.
We read within the last few hours that that insulting staffer resigned – don’t know under what conditions.
According to Glenn Beck this morning, he has inside people in Congress, saying The RINO’S are holding up more help for Patel and Bondi, and they probably won’t approve anyone else until August!! President Trump says he needs them to pass his Tax Cuts bills, and he needs to be happy they approved all his Cabinet Picks. Glenn beck visited and interviewed President Trump yesterday, and Glenn sang nothing but Praises for Donald Trump and how very Genuine he is, plus spending all his own money redecorating the White House.
It’s time for the House and Senate to recess for 10 days and for Trump to make a slew of recess appointments.
The need to be named, shamed, destroyed.
Sorry I don’t believe this and if President Trump allows this to happen, I will be shocked.
WLT Report has the article about Mike Davis hounding Kash Patel and Dan Bongino about arrests and hearings. It’s also on Trump News.
The News it’s called.
Judges are now injecting themselves into the chain of command. Maybe Mike Johnson could tear himself away from vacation and impeach judges for bad behavior, ya know, some time before the country is burnt to the ground.
.
Another attempt to create a condition to use against Hegseth…
Pity that Congress controls the purse strings and haven’t provided funding for the anti-Constitutional court order. They just have to pound sand.
As far as why they are going after Pete…
Another example of complete lawlessness .
Pentagon to Resume Providing Sex Change Treatments and Surgeries for Transgender Servicemembers and Their Dependents
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/04/pentagon-resume-providing-sex-change-treatments-surgeries-transgender/
This is beyond insanity. People that transition can’t deploy. They kick out people for far less serious/medical dependent illnesses, but will pay to make a servicemember physically unfit for service?
I don’t think these rulings have anything to do with whether they can deploy , I think it’s 100% about supporting left wing beliefs and supporting trans insanity . Remember liberal behavior is based on emotions not logic or basic common sense .
Sorry, it’s a NATIONAL SECURITY ISSUE – the court can pound sand.
On top of the baseline insanity of the whole thing, when and if we can get the Tranceformers out of the Military, these jokers can and will train other like minded civilian “grabasstic pieces of amphibian sh!t” military tactics and weapons handling.
Didn’t we already have a Border Patrol officer in Vermont ambushed by some fruitcake Death Cult foot soldier??
Terrible news. Obviously someone in charge doesn’t realize that no treatments exist to change sex since sex cannot be changed.
They can’t change their sex … but they can be neutered, which I think is a huge goal of the demonic left.
Border defense and deportations always should have been military, not civil law enforcement.
Suck it Death Cult!
HUUUUUUUUUGE
For those that continue to say , it’s a marathon not a sprint . It’s NOT a marathon , time to wake up and realize that this is a sprint and times a wasting that we don’t have .
Big accomplishments need to happen BEFORE the midterms or we’re screwed . Urgency is the key word .
that is EXACTLY what the GOP in congress want (what spitfire said in their sweet) they want to lose the midterms so the dems can impeach trump so they can get their gravy train back. that is why bondi, patel/bongino are doing jack squat.
Can’t disagree .
Getting Trump impeached is the GOPrick RINOrat plan.
I’ve had it with Speaker Johnson , the guy loves to be a part of the Trump posse at big sporting events but when it comes to getting Trumps agenda passed and dealing with corrupt judges he’s nowhere to be found.

BB just hilarious
I was just listening to Alex Jones interview Max Bernier and he used the word “Uniparty” to describe P. Polivere. It was refreshing to hear a French accent use a Sundance word to assault the Globalists.
The kilmar-abrego-garcia matter is dominating the courts, anti-Trump news, democrat crazies, and politics in general.
But if true, an interesting statement in the local ” Tennessee Star” newspaper raises very significant issues beyond and distinct from deportation or return.
I remember the how Alex Acosta explained his lack of prosecution of Jeffery Epstein, way back in Florida. Acosta reportedly explained he’d cut the non-prosecution deal because he had “been told” to back off, that Epstein was above his pay grade. “I was told Epstein ‘belonged to intelligence’ and to leave it alone,” https://talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/i-was-told-epstein-belonged-to-intelligence-and-to-leave-it-alone. There was no apparent followup at the time of the non-prosecution deal, until the Epstein issue broke open later.
The April 17 Tennesee Star Article asserted that the FBI “Told Officers to Release Kilmar Abrego Garcia During 2022 Traffic Stop Despite Speeding and License Violations”.
https://tennesseestar.com/justice/tennessee-highway-patrol-confirms-biden-era-fbi-told-officers-to-release-kilmar-abrego-garcia-during-2022-traffic-stop-despite-speeding-and-license-violations-to/tpappert/2025/04/17/
The Article continues:
“The FBI has yet to respond to a comment request from The Star, which sought to confirm the federal agency’s role in securing Abrego Garcia’s release in Tennessee.”
Why would the FBI order release of these 8 suspects? Might Biden’s FBI simply have been ordered to protect illegal aliens, gangs and and human trafficing? If so, there need to be investigations and potential prosecutions.
But the lack of followup is similar to the Epstein protection against prosecution. Is Abrego-Garcia a derp state asset? (FBI/CIA?). What was the danger to him that required an order not to return him to Ecuador? (that it might become known that he might be a derp state asset, causing danger?) Why are the democrats pressing such an unfavorable issue? (to help the derp state? – if the derp state can’t protect its ‘assets’, might other ‘assets’ lose faith in the ability of the derp state to protect them, and future ‘assets’ refusing to be recruited?)
It was clearly “above the pay grade” of the Tennessee Highway Patrol to even issue a simple ticket for driving erratically without a license (and an 8-man seat belt…).
Just like the initial Epstein intervention from above the pay grade of the local Florida Federal Prosecutor Alex Acosta, this FBI ‘release them’ order deserves detailed inestigation, imho.
Why do you think the FBI ordered their release without even a ticket?
more than “failed”.
This may be just the surface of a battle between the derp state and the effort to restore the FBI/CIA from the top down.
An ‘activist’ court , and activist journalists could have unwound some of the Epstein operation, as could further questioning of Acosta at his confirmation hearing.
What do others think might be the reason for the FBI ordering releasewithout even a ticket? Simple protection of illegal aliens? General protection of drug and trafficing operations? Protecion of an ‘asset’? If abrega-garcia is a readily-known ‘asset’, why would PDJT homeland security select him for deportation?
The American people are fed up. Our sovereignty is under siege by millions of illegal immigrants who exploit our borders, falsify asylum claims, and burden our communities with crime and economic strain. Rogue district judges, wielding baseless legal theories, grant these lawbreakers the same protections as U.S. citizens, defying the Constitution and the will of 80% of Americans who demand mass deportation, especially of violent criminals, per Rasmussen Reports.
Under Biden, 10+ million illegal crossings since 2021, with 70% fraudulent asylum claims, have overwhelmed our courts, mocked our laws, and endangered our nation. It’s time to act decisively, outsmart the Democrats’ law-fare playbook, and restore America’s borders.
THE LARGEST ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION INVASION IN HISTORY DEMANDS THE LARGEST ILLEGAL ALIEN DEPORTATION PROGRAM IN HISTORY
We, the citizens of America stand with you, President Trump, Tom Homan, Kristi Noem, and ICE to execute the largest deportation operation in history. We urge you to implement the following actions to secure our nation and honor the citizen voice—expressed through millions of emails, petitions, calls, and social media posts:
Mass Deportation Hearings: Implement group hearings in immigration courts for similar cases—criminal aliens, false asylum claims—to bypass Alien Enemies Act (AEA) legal hurdles and expedite deportations, clearing the 3 million-case back-log efficiently.
Expand Expedited Removal: Enforce the January 21, 2025, Federal Register notice under INA § 235(b), applying expedited removal to aliens within two years of entry nationwide, targeting millions of recent illegal entrants while avoiding constitutional challenges.
Enforce Executive Order 14159: Make non-compliance with EO 14159 (Jan. 20, 2025) a felony, mandating registration of unregistered aliens. Issue immediate notices and arrest warrants by a set deadline for non-reporters, addressing low compliance reported by USCIS to locate and detain millions.
Enhance the AEA: Amend the AEA to designate illegal entry—via borders, visa overstays at airports, or falsified asylum claims—as a “hostile act.” This empowers the President to detain and deport without standard due process, bypassing activist judges. Work with Congress to ensure due process compliance to withstand court challenges.
Narrow Asylum Criteria: Redefine “refugee” under INA § 101(a)(42) to limit asylum to a SHORT LIST of citizens of non-hostile nations with U.S.-recognized persecution (e.g., North Korea). Explicitly exclude migrants from Mexico, Central, and South America, forcing them to seek asylum in culturally and economically similar neighboring countries.
Focus on New Entrants: Apply the enhanced AEA prospectively, using military-controlled Roosevelt Reservation land for rapid CBP/ICE processing to deter future illegal entries, avoiding retroactive legal quagmires that courts would strike down.
The Supreme Court’s alarming trend of siding with due process for illegals, as seen in Biden v. Texas (2022), and lawsuits like Espinoza Escalona v. Noem (2025) blocking deportations, reveal a judiciary out of touch with the Constitution as originally written and intended for the American people. The Immigration and Nationality Act empowers rapid removal, yet judges obstruct ICE’s mission. We cannot tolerate this abuse of power.
Your administration must leverage military logistics, expand detention facilities (e.g., Texas’ 1,400-acre ranch), and fund this $45 billion operation to execute deportations at lightning speed. The American taxpayer—workers, families, and patriots—demands a secure nation free from unvetted, job-threatening illegal immigration.
Today, we call on every citizen to flood Congress with our demands, amplify support on social media, and rally behind President Trump, Homan, Noem, and DHS. Let’s back mass hearings, expedited removals, and a fortified AEA to deport illegals en masse, ignoring fake cries of “inhumanity.” The citizen poll is clear: millions stand united. Act now, and let nothing—judges, lawsuits, or critics—stand in the way of America’s future.

Roberts isn’t some “RINO”.
Chief Justice Johnny Cartel is a wicked Cabal Leader who has been overthrowing the President and the People since Day One. First through FISA Fraud, then through Election Fraud and now through Judicial Fraud.
Isaiah 63
The Lord Wins over the Nations
1 Who is this Who comes from Edom, with dark red clothing from Bozrah? Who is this One Who is beautiful in His clothing, walking in the greatness of His strength?
“It is I, Who speaks what is right and good, powerful to save.”
2 Why is Your clothing red? Why is Your clothing like his who crushes the grapes?
3 “I have crushed the grapes alone. From the people there was no man with Me. I crushed them in My anger. I was angry as I stepped on them. And their life blood is on My clothing, and all My clothing is red.
4 For the day of punishment was in My heart.
And My year to save My people and make them free has come.”
As I recall, Roberts was also instrumental in redefining ObamaCare as a tax, an argument not made to the high court but which he created on his own initiative as a pretext for justifying what we all knew to be unconstitutional.
Roberts ‘forgot’ that if itwas a tax, it did not originate in the House so was not constitutionally legal. That is why no party raised the issue.
But it was important to have OCare Control in place in time for the Vaxx/Virus Bio-Weapons Attack.
So Dr. Johnny Cartel passed his own tax bill.
CJ Roberts is at the very center of all the lawfare going on against us and President Trump!
Food for thought from a friend today.
“I woke this morning to hear that 12 states are suing the Trump administration over Tariffs. Many of the same states already have other lawsuits against the administration. After a moment of reflection, I remembered my history. In December 1860 after the election of another controversial President, Lincoln, the first of 11 states succeeded from the Union. Are we as a nation being led toward another civil war by the same political party that did so in 1861? Both groups of states were and are led by the Democrat party. Frightening.”
….and as it was in the last civil war. The Republicans will win!
With all due respect, it really doesn’t seem frightening to many of us. It’s our way or theirs, and there is no middle ground. Such is the situation they have created and insisted their rules be the ground rules for this fight. We’re in a full blown constitutional crisis/secession situation, whether all of us have recognized it or not. They claim they’re not governed by a legitimately elected government. What else can be done but force them to be? 🤷♂️
I’ve come to the point where the idea isn’t frightening. I’d be more than happy if President Trump negotiated their leaving.
As far as I can see, getting rid of CA would be a blessing (we could stop paying for their idiocy), except for military bases and harbors/ports, which we need to keep. Same goes for WA. Not sure what the other states would want to go, but wouldn’t mind seeing the last of ME, MN, and MI. We’d have to negotiate New York for economic reasons. VA harbors and Navy base need to stay and may need to negotiate MA harbors.
If anyone could make this work, it’s President Trump. But something tells me he doesn’t want to break up this “big beautiful union.” I’m just tired of all the relentless crap.
FBI put Peter Navarro in leg irons, but no leg irons for a judge housing an illegal alien & terrorist. FBI is disgusting.
.
Our current DOJ and FBI are not near aggressive and tough enough, they need to be ruthless when dealing with these people .
This is a key mistake in and of itself – but it’s compounded several times over when viewed in the context of Chyna’s withholding rare earth (other strategic) metals.
The US should prohibit the sale of precious metals to those attacking us, as they’re required for national security reasons and used in electronics, solar panels, batteries, and other areas.
From a mercantilism standpoint – allow their import, disallow their export to enemies and put in place high tariffs for others.
Note – it isn’t just the CCP government – it’s also done via their insurance companies which have been given free reign to buy gold and use it for backing their policies. It’s all part of a non-kinetic (for now) war being waged against us.
At least the USA is the bitcoin capitol of the world, still trying to figure out how to swap bc to food stamps

I thought Senator Thune was the worse rino in Congress, however, now I believe the honor must be bestowed on SOH Johnson.
May the fleas of a thousand camels attack their nu…….. ah – never mind.
Just think of the fun the Great Johnny Carson (Karnac the Magnificent) would have today.
Durbin spoke to Gov Pritzker and his Lt Governor before he announced his intention not to run for re-election.
Now IL Lt Governor Stratton has announced her decision to run for his seat. Of course this was coordinated, it reminds me of when long term MO representative Clay decided to retire he didn’t announce it until after his son signed up to run, then he withdrew his name – on the very last day on which it was available to throw one’s hat in the ring.
Of course the son won handily. Hilarious that son Clay was upset by the [now gone] extreme racist Cori Bush.
