A law enforcement operation conducted in the Austin metro area resulted in the arrest of more than 40 members and associates of the violent Venezuelan Tren de Aragua (TdA) gang. A police task force comprised of federal, state, and local law enforcement authorities closed in on the suspected gang members Tuesday morning, according to the Texas Department of Public Safety. According to authorities, for more than a year, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), the San Antonio Police Department (SAPD), the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS), and several other federal, state and local partners, have been investigating members and associates

As the three-month anniversary of the creation of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) approaches, the attacks on Tesla dealerships, charging stations, and car owners disturbingly continue to escalate - so much so that President Donald Trump, the FBI, and the DOJ have all stated that the attacks equate to domestic terrorism. They've gotten so bad, in fact, that FBI Director Kash Patel last week confirmed the existence of an FBI Tesla task force, posting on Twitter/X that "we have taken additional steps to crack down and coordinate our response. This is domestic terrorism. Those responsible will be pursued, caught, and brought to justice."

Republican lawmakers praised President Donald Trump for announcing that foreign countries would be hit with reciprocal tariffs and that there would be a 25 percent tariff imposed on foreign-made vehicles. Rep. Tim Moore (R-NC), Rep. Addison McDowell (R-NC), Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL), Rep. Troy Nehls (R-TX), and Rep. Andy Harris (R-MD) were among the Republicans who praised Trump on what was labeled “Liberation Day.” Trump was praised for “leveling the playing field for American workers,” and for putting American workers first.

Washington— Vice President JD Vance told Breitbart News exclusively on Wednesday evening that for the “first time in probably 40 years,” the United States has a president in President Donald Trump who is reversing the trend of the U.S. serving as a “piggy bank” for the rest of the world. “So for 40 years, America has been the piggy bank of the world,” Vance said when asked about the importance of the president’s announcement on Wednesday. “We absorb all of the ridiculous trade practices and economic practices of friend and foe alike.

Attorney General Pam Bondi has recommended that prosecutors should seek the death penalty in the case of accused murderer Luigi Mangione. Over on ‘The View,’ Joy Behar recently wondered if this decision would cause a ‘backlash’ against Republicans. This betrays Behar’s entire worldview. It doesn’t matter to her what happened, or the fact that a completely innocent man was murdered in cold blood. All that matters to Behar is that there is a possibility that something might go badly for Republicans. That is all Behar thinks about, that is all she cares about. Ever. FOX News reports:
Shock for L.A. Consumers as ‘Homeless
Tax’ — Which They Voted for — Takes Effect

LOS ANGELES, California — Consumers in Los Angeles County were shocked Tuesday as a new quarter-percent sales tax, ostensibly to raise funds for services for the homeless, went into effect following a referendum in November. L.A. voters passed Measure A, which replaced and increased an earlier county-wide sales tax for the homeless. That tax, passed a decade ago, failed to stem the growth of the homeless population and may even have encouraged it. As Breitbart News reported in November: The UK Sun noted the effect of the tax on consumers’ pocketbooks: The sales tax went up from 9.5% to 9.75% to increase funding to prevent homelessness.

Donald Trump's decision to impose new tariffs on all goods entering the US is a "major blow to the world economy", European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen has said. Her comments echo those of a number of other countries, including China, which has expressed its opposition to the move and has warned it will take "resolute countermeasures" against the US. Their words of warning come after the US president announced a universal 10% tariff on all imports into the US from 5 April. Around 60 countries will also be hit with steeper tariffs from 9 April.

There are two stories here. Once is the ongoing wave of vandalism and domestic terrorism by left-wing nutjobs and the other is the silence of Democrats. Neither of these stories is really breaking news at this point, but I haven't stopped caring and I don't think our readers have either. So on that note, let's just go over a few acts of vandalism and the people who've been either identified as suspects or already arrested. Apparently these people don't understand that Tesla's have lots of cameras. In Boston, a woman was captured on video throwing a brick through the window of a Tesla.

Lefty media worked themselves into a lather over Elon Musk’s imminent departure from the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) — but his tenure was always meant to be temporary. Musk — DOGE’s lodestar and President Trump’s right-hand man — is in fact expected to step back from the administration at the end of next month, two sources close to the White House tell The Post. But his last day was a fait accompli from the start of the administration, per federal regulations which mandate special government employees (SGEs) can only remain at their post for 130 consecutive days.

President Donald Trump announces tariffs in the Rose Garden of the White House at a Make America Wealthy Again event on Wednesday, April 2. Dubbed “Liberation Day” by Trump, the president is expected to announce reciprocal tariffs against countries that have imposed their own tariffs on imports from America for years. Breitbart’s John Carney notes: As a Bloomberg columnist put it in a moment of unguarded awe, “I can’t recall the last time when so many people around the world were waiting for a White House announcement where no one seems to know what exactly is going to be announced.”

Several countries have announced plans to reduce or eliminate tariffs on U.S. imports in response to President Donald Trump’s “reciprocal tariffs” policy, set to take effect on April 2, 2025. This policy aims to match the tariffs that other nations impose on U.S. products. The White House released a detailed chart showing how badly many countries have been ripping off American workers, charging high tariffs on U.S. goods while benefiting from America’s generosity in return. The White House fact sheet released today clarified that Canada is exempt from the reciprocal tariff announcement.

A group of Republican senators voted along with Democrats on Wednesday for a resolution to undo President Trump’s 25 percent tariffs on Canadian imports, dealing an embarrassing blow to Trump. The resolution expresses the sense of the Senate and doesn’t have the force of law, but its 51-48 passage is unwelcome news for the president on the very day he announced a host of new tariffs. Four Republicans — Sens. Rand Paul (Ky.), Susan Collins (Maine), Lisa Murkowski (Alaska) and Mitch McConnell (Ky.) — voted for the measure. They voted to express their disapproval of Trump’s tariffs on Canada

In this age of rage, it is common for people to become the very thing that they despise in others, jettisoning their most cherished values to strike out at those they hate. Since the election, Democrats have shown that very self-destructive quality of rage in adopting anti-immigrant, anti-free speech, anti-labor, and even anti-environmental positions to get at Donald Trump or his supporters. It consumes every part of a person. It is addictive, and it is contagious. What these rage addicts will not admit, however, is that they like it; they need it. That was evident this week in New York,

Senate floor stunts proved a less than useless salve for sinking approval as they epitomized the Democratic Party’s “pathetic incoherence.” “Oh my goodness gracious, you just can’t get it worse than these numbers.” With all the drama of Shakespeare, New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker (D) embarked on a marathon speech to kick off the week, surpassing 25 hours of “sound and fury signifying nothing.” The political theater was followed by a self-congratulatory media tour that proved Spartacus the ultimate April Fool as new polling data found his party sunk to a new low with a mere 21% approval among voters.
