'Scientific Socialism' Has Come to Pacific Palisades

"You can’t rebuild the same. We have to rebuild with science. We have to build with climate reality in mind," California Gov. Gavin Newsom told CNN last week in an interview about rebuilding the burned-out Pacific Palisades. "We have to look at infrastructure or redundancy systems. Ingress, egress, as it relates to emergency management and planning materials." The interview seems to have flown under the radar, but when I caught it this morning, a bit belatedly, my alarm bells went off left and right. Well, to be honest, they were all on the left. Whatever happened to Newsom's promise that he'd eliminate red tape and accelerate the rebuilding of one of L.A.'s nicest

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump on Monday pardoned former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich, whose 14-year sentence for political corruption charges he commuted during his first term.
The Republican president called the Democratic former governor, who once appeared on Trump’s reality TV show “Celebrity Apprentice,” “a very fine person” and said the conviction and prison sentence “shouldn’t have happened.”
“I’ve watched him. He was set up by a lot of bad people, some of the same people I had to deal with,” Trump said at the White House as he signed the pardon.
Blagojevich was convicted in 2011 on charges that included seeking to sell an appointment to then-President Barack Obama’s old Senate seat
Trump Administration Fights Judicial Tyranny

I wrote here about the absurd order issued by a Democratic Party judge that purports to bar the Secretary of the Treasury, along with many others, from accessing the Treasury Department’s data. The judge who issued that ex parte order–that means he issued it without even waiting to hear from the government–was Paul Engelmayer. Engelmayer sits in the Southern District of New York, a venue that has no apparent connection to the Treasury Department’s operations.
The Trump administration has now moved urgently to correct Engelmayer’s error. The linked document is a Memorandum in support of a Motion to Dissolve, Clarify or Modify Engelmayer’s improvidently granted temporary restraining order.

Sure, if you're the Vatican, or more specifically, the Vatican's big umbrella NGO of NGOs known as Caritas, whose U.S. arms include Catholic Charities and Catholic Relief Services.
According to the Associated Press:
VATICAN CITY -- The Vatican's charity said Monday that U.S. plans to gut USAID were “reckless” and could kill millions, while Pope Francis’ point man on development urged the Trump administration to remember Christian principles about caring for others.
Cardinal Michael Czerny, a Czech-born Canadian Jesuit, is one of the cardinals most closely associated with Francis’ pontificate and heads the Vatican office responsible for migrants, the environment, the church’s Caritas Internationalis charity and development.
The federal judge who suggested Trump administration officials could face criminal contempt over the spending freeze on Monday is a Democrat donor.
John J. McConnell, Jr., chief judge of the U.S. district court in Rhode Island, ordered the Trump administration to “immediately restore frozen funding” after determining officials violated his prior restraining order and suggesting further opposition could result in criminal charges.
McConnell cited a 1975 case that states, “Persons who make private determinations of the law and refuse to obey an order generally risk criminal contempt even if the order is ultimately ruled incorrect.”
While he was in private practice as an attorney until 2009, McConnell donated hundreds of thousands
The media’s demonization of a 19-year-old member of Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) team has backfired with the attention to his skills instead landing the young man a new job at the State Department.
With the corrupt Democrats desperate to prevent their money laundering rackets through agencies like USAID from being uncovered, there is an all-out propaganda war on the Tesla/SpaceX CEO which includes the young geniuses tapped by Musk to audit the federal government who have been doxed and exposed to threats from the media hit squad.
One of them is Edward Coristine whose nickname “Big Balls” has been an obsession with CNN and other outlets,
A former executive inside the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) warns of corruption in the agency that is currently being reviewed and purged by the Trump administration, alleging that among politicians, it is mostly Democrats who benefited from its funding.
Mark Moyar, former director of the Office of Civilian-Military Cooperation at USAID in the first Trump administration, explains the corruption he saw within the agency and the lack of transparency, as he looks forward to its reduction. He also claims that Democrats have benefited more from the agency’s funding than Republicans, based on his own personal experience.
During the first few weeks of the second Trump administration,
President Trump rolled back into the DC Swamp like a BOSS on a mission. Sure, in 2016, he took DC by storm—but not like this. This time around, it’s different. Everyone sees it and feels it, too. Even some experts, like Mark Halperin, who are left speechless watching Trump steamroll not just the fake news media, but the entire Dem Party.
Mark says he’s never seen anything like this. Once again, President Trump is changing the game. He’s a man who has learned from the past—and now, he knows exactly how to play these bad guys like a fiddle. (Snip) But the shock and awe doesn’t stop there.
CNN's Sciutto Tees Up Palestinian To Accuse

Trump Of Ethnic Cleansing, Israel of Genocide 11 replies
CNN's Jim Sciutto, sitting in for Kasie Hunt on CNN This Morning, teed up a Palestinian to repeatedly accuse Trump of "ethnic cleansing" in Gaza, and Israel of "genocide."
Words that never passed the ex-Obama diplomat's lips: October 7th, Hamas, or hostages. Instead, Sciutto created a free-fire zone for the Palestinian to attack Trump and Israel.
Much of what you need to know about the Palestinian in question, Yawa Hawari, co-director of the Palestinian think tank Al-Shabaka, can be gleaned from these words in a recent article she wrote [emphasis added]:
USAID is a rabbit hole subsidizing everything from Islamic terrorists to leftist activist groups.
Freezing the outlay has sent them scurrying and demanding more money or everyone will die.
Nonprofits sue Trump administration for freezing foreign aid: The groups said the freeze violates Congress’ wishes and is endangering lives in developing countries. – Politico
A liberal-leaning advocacy group filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration Monday seeking to halt the freeze on foreign aid the administration has imposed.
The group, Public Citizen, argues the freeze on funds appropriated by Congress is unlawful and is endangering lives abroad.
“When programs like the ones run by our clients are abruptly shuttered, the impacts are felt throughout
Here in the year of our Lord 2025, it is virtually impossible to be too absurd when mocking the American Left. Yes, it has been that way for a while, but it really went off the deep end when the lefties had to pretend that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris had brains. That kind of forced delusion will break anybody.
This is particularly rough on me. Ever since I first stepped on a stage to tell a joke almost 43 years ago, absurdism has been the favored weapon in my comedic arsenal with which to lampoon anyone or anything. For most of my career it wasn't difficult for me
Former Democratic donor-tuned-MAGA supporter Lindy Li dropped more details about Joe Biden and her former party’s shenanigans during the 2024 election. Li has been eager to spill all the things about the delusions that engulfed the Democrats, to the point where some thought they could win Iowa. Over $2 billion was raised and blown on Kamala Harris’ shambolic campaign for the White House. After some expenditures were made public, some megadonors warned they’d never write a check again.
Ms. Li said that after Joe Biden’s disastrous CNN debate that June, Hunter Biden commandeered the White House and sat in on sensitive meetings without a security clearance.
Did you notice something in the last week? Our liberal friends perked up and found themselves a new enemy. Previously, every card-carrying liberal knew that Donald Trump was the enemy. But that was before the midnight raid on USAID under Commando Bro Musk. How dare, how dare Elon Musk send his racist sexist tech kids to bomb the sacred groves of USAID!
I have to admit: I had no idea about USAID. It took Musk and his tech kids to wake me up to the fact that USAID is a slush fund -- the slush fund -- for our educated ruling class. And all the best people have served their

On Sunday, a man of the cloth used the pulpit to issue a sick call of violence against his fellow man.
Dr. Steve Caudle, a pastor at Greater Second Missionary Baptist Church in Chattanooga, Tennessee, gave his weekly sermon to congregants who gathered to worship God. But Caudle had a few other things on his mind beyond spreading the Gospel.
After a brief talk regarding the Super Bowl matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles, Caudle then turned his attention to his scripture lesson called “The Violent Kingdom.” He decided to use the Scripture of Matthew to blast the Trump Administration and DOGE.
Democratic Connecticut state Sen. Martin Looney proposed a bill that would require Connecticut movie theaters to publish a film’s actual start time.
Moviegoers know that times listed on movie tickets indicate when the previews begin, not the actual movie.
If passed, S.B. 797 would require theaters to publish both times on tickets.
During his campaign, Donald Trump promised to use Elon Musk to improve government efficiency, partly by ending the incredible graft and corruption permeating the bureaucracy. Since Trump’s inauguration, Musk and his youthful four-man crew, using the power of AI, have identified a host of fundamental problems in the Treasury Dept. As Musk explained: (X) To be clear, what the @DOGE team and @USTreasury have jointly agreed makes sense is the following:
- Require that all outgoing government payments have a payment categorization code, which is necessary in order to pass financial audits. This is frequently left blank, making audits almost impossible.
STUTTGART, Germany — Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Monday while on a C-17 aircraft en route to Germany signed a memorandum renaming “Fort Liberty” back to “Fort Bragg” — the original name of the storied military base in North Carolina.
In a short video posted on X of him signing the memo, he said, “There it is. Pursuant to the authority of the Secretary of Defense, Title 10, United States Code § 113, I direct the Army to change the name of Fort Liberty, North Carolina, to Fort Bragg, North Carolina. That’s right — Bragg is back!'” (X Video) However, the name change now honors Army Private First Class
Eagles fans in Philadelphia were in true form following their team’s 40-22 win over the Chiefs to win Super Bowl 2025.
Hundreds of fans flocked to the city’s Broad Street to celebrate the franchise’s second Super Bowl title.
After the city decided to not grease the poles in the area, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer, some decided to climb them, including one who sat atop a traffic light on the corner of Broad Street and Pine Street. (Videos)
Fans shot fireworks into the air and popped champagne. Others joined together to jump on top of and destroy a police van.
Some found a garbage truck to get on top of.
A contract for a pricey museum exhibit for Dr. Anthony Fauci has been canceled as the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) exposes rampant waste.
DOGE, which is led by Elon Musk, made the announcement in a social media post on Friday, explaining that officials with the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) made swift work of canceling millions of dollars’ worth of contracts, Fox News reported Sunday. DOGE also included details about the Fauci exhibit. “In the past 48 hours, HHS canceled 62 contract worth $182 million. These contracts were entirely for administrative expenses – none touched any healthcare programs. This included terminating a $168,000 contract
Considering they just spectacularly lost a major defamation suit, CNN has seemed remarkably unconcerned about throwing around wild accusations. On Monday’s episode of Inside Politics With Dana Bash, Bash seemingly suggested that billionaire Elon Musk had made his money through illegal means, though she never provided evidence. She also lashed out at President Trump’s voters, calling them “the problem.”
Bash summed up what has always been CNN’s transparent view of Trump when she said that what we “cannot lose sight of,” is that the President had a “history” of “being litigious, slowing things down
Elon Musk reported early Monday morning that FEMA sent $59 million just last week to luxury hotels in New York City to house illegal migrants.
According to Musk, sending this money to these high-end hotels violated the law. This directly interferes with President Trump’s executive order.
And why is FEMA paying for illegal alien housing when they ignore Americans suffering and living in tents in places like North Carolina?
FEMA funds are meant for American disaster relief and not to fund Joe Biden’s invasion.

The FBI has uncovered 2,400 new records about President John F. Kennedy’s assassination following President Trump’s order to release the secret files, according to reports.
Those documents contain about 14,000 pages worth of material that a disclosure board was supposed to review but never saw, Axios reported Monday.
The White House learned about the never-before-reviewed documents on Friday as the Office of the Director of National Intelligence presented its plan to disclose the remaining documents.

“Sometimes the Devil will act so ugly that you have no other choice but to get violent and fight."
Those are the chilling words of a senior pastor at Greater Second Missionary Baptist Church of Chattanooga, Tennessee, during a Sunday School morning service. The pastor, Reverend Dr. Steve A. Caudle, likened Elon Musk, President Donald Trump's head of the new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), to the Devil, as he spewed lie after lie about DOGE — and appeared to urge people to "get violent and fight." How pastoral. (X Video)
Chelsea Clinton claims that 'misinformation' has been weaponized against her after claims she was gifted $84million from the under fire United States Agency for International Development (USAID).
Elon Musk and President Donald Trump have attempted to shut down the embattled government agency tasked with humanitarian relief overseas after they agreed the organization was 'beyond repair' and wasting billions.
The billionaire 'first buddy' led a civilian review of the federal government with Trump's go-ahead and decided this week to shut down the agency.
