Canada and Mexico’s top leaders blasted President Trump Saturday hours after he imposed a 25% tariff on the neighboring countries — and announced they would retaliate by enforcing their own on the US. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau revealed he and Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo agreed to work together to push back against Trump’s long-awaited taxing program, which he claimed was aimed at halting the influx of drugs into the US. Trump put a 25% tariff on Canadian and Mexican imports, while Chinese products will receive a more modest 10% tariff.

The crew aboard the UH-60 Black Hawk chopper, the 12th Aviation Battalion, is responsible for top-secret evacuation missions meant to whisk top US officials from DC to secure locations in the case of a national emergency such as a terrorist or nuclear attack.

When Trump first got out of the limousine, before his wife came around from the other side of the car, Biden greeted him with the words, “Welcome home.” In what seemed to be a rare lucid moment for Biden, one got the impression that Joe was expressing the idea that he had been house-sitting—or, some might say, squatting—in the White House for the past four years.

Donald J. Trump is back to killing terrorists and threatening anyone that harms Americans — and it is glorious. In 2017, Trump approved an anti-ISIS campaign plan that relaxed the military rules of engagement and sped up the violent destruction of the jihadi group. By 2019, the ISIS in Iraq and Syria had collapsed. During the Biden administration, ISIS came back. Since Biden’s disastrous and humiliating withdrawal from Afghanistan, ISIS-K has regenerated and is carrying out attacks inside the country that could extend and recruit internationally.

What a difference an election can make. I've spent the last four years waiting for the FBI to kick down my door and ship me off to be used as prison currency. These days, I wake up smiling, check my phone to see what Trump has done, laugh, and then go to Facebook to lap up the inevitable Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS). So-called adults screeching like harpies caught in a bobcat trap. You can almost hear them spit-screaming on their keyboards and phones as the silicon chip inside their heads gets switched to overload. It's like an old-school Jerry Springer donnybrook, but without the trailer park nudity.

PALM BEACH, Fla. — President Donald Trump has fired the director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Rohit Chopra, in the latest purge of a Biden administration holdover. Chopra was one of the more important regulators from the previous Democratic administration who was still on the job since Trump took office on Jan. 20. During Trump's first term, the Republican had picked Chopra as a Democrat member of the Federal Trade Commission. Chopra was notified of his firing in an email from the White House, according to a person familiar with the notice who was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly

I get that Pete Buttigieg had to respond: He’s a Democrat who got called out by President Donald Trump in a press conference. The president addressed the media after the tragic air disaster at Reagan National Airport on January 29, which led to the deaths of 67 people. It’s the worst aviation incident in years. Trump called out the former transportation secretary and then went on a prolonged critique of DEI initiatives under Biden, which included hiring brain-damaged people and those with mental and intellectual disabilities. The latter part is what triggered the Left, and Mayor Pete is very left-wing:

The White House just released a video worthy of ending Selena Gomez’s career. As readers will know, Gomez humiliated herself with a video uploaded to Instagram in which she cried at the deportation of illegal immigrants, the majority of whom have committed heinous crimes. “I’m so sorry, I wish I could do something but I can’t,” she weeps in the video. ”I don’t know what to do. I’ll try everything, I promise.” However, her following of 422 million meant that her tears will go down in internet history as one of the most humiliating liberal meltdowns of all time. (X Video)

An audit by Boston University found “no wrongdoing,” though it is hard to resist the ironic suspicion that this was a whitewash. And now the other shoe drops: Kendi, who was seldom seen on the Boston University campus and apparently taught no classes, is leaving BU for Howard University, and—surprise—starting a new “research institute”: Kendi, author of the bestseller “How to Be

American-Israeli Keith Siegel was released by Hamas Saturday morning in the latest hostage-for-prisoner swaps — making him the first US citizen freed by the terror group under the ongoing cease-fire deal. Siegel was released just before 10:30 a.m. local time when the Red Cross organized his release with Hamas after he spent the last 484 days in captivity. Siegel, 65, an occupational therapist from Chapel Hill, N.C., was kidnapped along with his wife, Aviva, when Hamas raided their home on Kibbutz Kfar Aza on Oct. 7, 2023.

The Trump administration has issued a directive to ban 50 former intelligence officials, including high-profile figures like John Brennan, John Bolton, and James Clapper, from accessing secure U.S. government facilities. This decision comes after these officials misleadingly characterized Hunter Biden’s laptop as Russian disinformation. In 2020, it was 51 lying intelligence officials who were quarterbacked by Anthony Blinken to pull off the greatest election fraud in American history. It was Tony Blinken who was in charge of collecting signatures from corrupt and partisan Trump-hating intelligence officials to sign off on the letter that the laptop was a Russian op.

The NTSB chief stepped forward and shut him down. This was an embarrassing moment for NBC News. These journalists just can’t help themselves. They are still on a constant quest to blame Trump or make him look bad at any moment, no matter how inappropriate. They really seem to believe that other people share this mental problem with them. It makes them look foolish, not to mention unprofessional.

One such brag, a 2019 interview in which Harris took credit for supplying felons with free transsexual therapies while in prison, turned into the most effective message in the election.

We have become so used to government actors being malefactors, being lied to, and being pushed around that it becomes natural to suspect that when anything bad happens, somebody is behind it. The truth is, stuff happens. Mistakes are made, and acceptable risks sometimes lead to bad results. Usually, you can smell the stench of bulls**t if you sniff deep enough, and sometimes the BS is hidden enough that it takes a long time to come out. As often as not--more often than not--the term "conspiracy theory" is thrown out to label a perfectly plausible explanation for something as beyond the pale.
