In an interview on CNN’s State of the Union, Jake Tapper confronted Crockett about the widely-mocked “Choose Your Fighter” TikTok video — which was slammed by Fetterman as “bizarre.” (Snip) “He’s not the one to talk about anything,” Crockett said. “I mean, this is a guy that doesn’t seemingly want to own a suit. own a suit, I’m not really sure.

Breitbart, by Katherine Hamilton Original Article Posted by Hazymac — 3/16/2025 9:33:23 AM A court ordered Starbucks on Friday to pay $50 million in damages to a delivery driver who was severely burned by spilled beverages, CNN reported.

Red State, by Bob Hoge Original Article Posted by Dreadnought — 3/16/2025 7:32:29 PM As we’ve been reporting, President Trump invoked the 1798 Alien Enemies Act against members of the violent Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang and promptly put over 200 of them on a plane to be taken to El Salvador.

The Trump administration ignored the order, however, and the gangbangers were unloaded Sunday

Crockett made the remarks after Trump invoked the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to deport members of the hyper-violent organization on Saturday.

American Thinker, by Clarice Feldman Original Article Posted by Judy W. — 3/16/2025 6:44:13 AM There are almost 700 federal district court judges.

Since President Trump was sworn in for a second term, there have been an avalanche of cases seeking relief from executive actions. Last month alone district court judges issued 15 temporary restraining orders. “That’s more nationwide injunctions than there were issued for the first three YEARS of the Biden Administration. District court judges are out of control.“
