Why SCOTUS Needs To Reevaluate The Problem
It Created In Obergefell
Posted By: JoElla Bee, 2/19/2025 10:29:44 AM
In late January, the Idaho House of Representatives passed a memorandum calling on the U.S. Supreme Court to “reverse” its 2015 gay marriage decision, Obergefell v. Hodges, “and restore the natural definition of marriage, a union of one man and one woman.” The memo passed 46 to 24 in the House and is heading to the Idaho Senate. If it passes the senate, it will be sent on to the Supreme Court as one more formal encouragement that it take up a case that might overturn Obergefell.[Snip] Back in 2020, sitting justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito argued that the Obergefell decision should be overturned — or at least fixed.

In one fell swoop, the liberal-led Wisconsin Supreme Court shredded long-established principles of legal standing while showing voters what leftist control of the Badger State’s highest court would look like for the foreseeable future.[Snip] “The court effectively closed the courthouse doors to many Wisconsinites who are seeking to hold government officials accountable,” Vebber said, adding that the ruling will have significant ramifications beyond the Brown case.
Judge Anthony J. Trenga, an appointee of George W. Bush, has temporarily blocked President Trump’s move to clean house in the intelligence community—specifically targeting agents involved in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives that have compromised national security in favor of leftist ideology. This ruling comes after a group of anonymous intelligence officers, who had been temporarily reassigned to roles implementing controversial Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility (DEIA) programs, have filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) and the CIA.
Left-wing billionaires are dumping large sums of cash into the highly consequential Wisconsin Supreme Court race ahead of election day on April 1, according to recent campaign finance reports.[Snip] “It could literally mean the success of President Trump’s term. It could literally mean them having the votes to bring impeachment articles against him,” Wisconsin GOP Chairman Brian Schimming told Breitbart News in an exclusive phone interview. “The implications of what happens in Wisconsin would be a political earthquake for the House of Representatives.”
Let me begin by saying I'm neither a healthcare expert nor a Facebook pharmaceutical "expert" — on either side of the issue — but it appears that Health and Human Services (DHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s mission to "Make America Healthy Again" is already making an impact.[Snip] State-level lawmakers are introducing a wave of bills aimed at advancing priorities championed by new Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his "Make America Healthy Again" platform
The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) may be only pretending to comply with an Executive Order keeping men out of women’s sports that was signed by President Trump on Feb 5.
Jennifer Sey, who is a former U.S. gymnastics champion, says the NCAA’s new policy claims to comply with Trump’s order, yet leaves itself two loopholes through which men who identify as women may continue to participate as student athletes in women’s sports.
Karoline Leavitt, 27, is trolling Democrats who are afraid of DOGE with a reminder that their party leaders Barack Obama and Joe Biden wanted to cut federal spending in the past.[Snip]'To all of the Democrats who are planning to protest this week, here’s an explanation on DOGE, from your party’s own beloved leaders!' Leavitt posted to X alongside a video of Obama and Biden lauding the same efforts DOGE is now undertaking. In the video the two former Democratic presidents are shown talking about the importance of reforming the government to reduce frivolous government spending and waste

As the Department of Government Efficiency continues its work, Democrats’ rhetoric is becoming more radical. On Wednesday, Democrat Rep. Robert Garcia spoke with CNN’s Brianna Keilar about DOGE Chairman Elon Musk, as Garcia had called Musk a “d***” in a hearing earlier that day. In his explanation to Keilar, Garcia called for using “actual weapons” against DOGE and Musk. Now, Republican Rep Nancy Mace is calling for his censure. “What I think is really important, and what the American public want, is for us to bring actual weapons to this bar fight,” he explained regarding Musk.
The results are in: The Democratic Party’s Bidenomics strategy produced a disastrous score of just 160,000 extra jobs for Americans during each year of President Joe Biden’s presidency. President Joe Biden’s dismal Bidenomics also created jobs for 4.7 million migrants — including almost three million illegals, according to federal data collected by the Center for Immigration Studies and reported on February 7. So Bidenomics created 7.3 migrant jobs for every job gained by an American, even as it also exploded the national debt by $8 trillion.

AI Action Summit to Focus on Opportunity,
Not Fear 4 replies
Vice President JD Vance is overseas this week, traveling first to Paris, France, to attend the Artificial Intelligence Action Summit, then on to Munich, Germany, for the Security Conference. On Tuesday, he addressed the Summit, delivering remarks on the United States' vision for AI and the opportunity it presents. Vance's speech was relatively brief — just over 15 minutes — but it set out that vision clearly and pointedly, calling on our European allies, in particular, to step back from over-regulation and censorship and be wary of adversarial regimes.
We've been seeing a pretty amazing move to make over the government over the last three weeks since President Donald Trump has taken office.[Snip] Now, there's a follow-up action in Congress with the House Oversight Committee naming Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) to head the new "Task Force on Declassification of Federal Secrets." Luna announced that they would be looking into UFOs, the Jeffrey Epstein client list, JFK, RFK, and MLK, as well as the origins of COVID-19 and the 9/11 files.
$50 to $100 billion a year, that is how much has already been identified by the White House’s Department of Government Efficiency through a review of Treasury payments as likely fraud. This amount is nothing more than identifying how much is paid monthly to recipients who don’t have a Social Security number or other government identification attached to their files.[Snip] It is surprising that the various systems that are in place to ostensibly prevent fraud failed so spectacularly, and it is fair to wonder if some of those in charge of them were part of the steal?

Democratic Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett could not comprehend the idea of the federal government handing out dividends to Americans over the money it has wasted for decades during a Thursday segment on ABC News. President Donald Trump expressed interest in handing out $5,000 dividend checks to every taxpayer with the money saved by the Department of Government Efficiency’s (DOGE) downsizing of the federal government. Crockett said she does not believe $5,000 will help out the average American and appeared to ignore the fact that the federal government has wasted billions of dollars in spending for several years.
Toxic RINO Senator Susan Collins (ME) on Thursday morning announced she is a “no” vote on Kash Patel.
The Senate will vote to confirm Kash Patel as FBI Director on Thursday. Senator Collins came out against Kash Patel just hours before the vote.
Senator Collins said her decision to vote against Kash Patel comes after a flood of firings and resignations at the Justice Department.
“The nomination of Kash Patel to serve as Director of the FBI comes to the Senate against the backdrop of recent personnel actions at the Department of Justice, including the resignations of several career federal prosecutors who felt they were being
Although Hamas claimed that the four bodies released to Israel on Thursday included Shiri Bibas and her two young children Ariel and Kfir, an Israeli forensics team announced late on Thursday evening that the body believed to be Shiri’s was not, in fact, Shiri Bibas.
Specialists at Abu Kabir Forensic Institute determined that Ariel and Kfir were “brutally murdered by terrorists” in November 2023, and that “the additional body received” was not Shiri’s. The specialist confirmed the identities of Ariel, Kfir, and Oded Lifshitz, a retired journalist.
“No match was found for any other hostage. This is an anonymous, unidentified body,”
Senator Mitch McConnell (R., Ky.), the longest-serving Senate party leader in U.S. history, announced on Thursday he will not be seeking reelection in 2026.
McConnell intends to serve the remainder of his term, which ends in January 2027. The former Senate minority leader announced the news on his 83rd birthday.
“Seven times, my fellow Kentuckians have sent me to the Senate,” McConnell said in prepared remarks on the Senate floor. “Every day in between I’ve been humbled by the trust they’ve placed in me to do their business here. Representing our commonwealth has been the honor of a lifetime. I will not seek
No new water storage infrastructure has been built in California, more than a decade after voters approved a $7.5 billion water bond in Proposition 1 of 2014.
The San Jose Mercury-News reported Wednesday that officials are deciding what to do with nearly half a billion dollars of available cash after the “collapse” of a project to expand the Los Vaqueros Reservoir, which is east of San Francisco.
Other projects have received funding for planning and permitting, but nothing has been built.
The newspaper noted:
A majority of the seven board members of the California Water Commission, a state agency that distributes funding to build reservoirs and other water projects
I've done a lot of sales and marketing writing throughout my freelance career, though I'd hardly call myself an expert. Even so, I don't think it takes an expert to realize that you can keep rebranding something over and over again, but if you get the same result, the problem is with the product, not the way you're selling it.
Over the last six or seven years, Meghan Markle's attempts at selling anything substantial have failed almost every time. Her fake podcasting career was short-lived. With the exception of a "documentary" designed to mock her husband's family, the one that most people seemingly only viewed to hate-watch,
Dr. Deborah Birx is trying to save herself, isn’t she? She told Piers Morgan everything our lovely Leslie Eastman said from the beginning of COVID and about the vaccine:
Meant for the immunocompromised and elderly
Nothing like childhood vaccines
Young and healthy people didn’t need it
Wasn’t designed to prevent infection.
I’m immunocompromised with rheumatoid arthritis and Sjögren’s syndrome. I refuse to get the COVID vaccine. I still get the flu and pneumonia vaccine, though. The one time I forgot to update my pneumonia shot I got it. I had pneumonia in December 2019, and I wanted to die. COVID? I just slept a lot.
I felt worse with the flu and, of course, pneumonia…
President Trump signed an executive order Wednesday night barring illegal immigrants from receiving federally-funded benefits.
“My Administration will uphold the rule of law, defend against the waste of hard-earned taxpayer resources, and protect benefits for American citizens in need, including individuals with disabilities and veterans,” read the text of Trump’s order.
The president noted that the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 (PRWORA) ostensibly prohibits illegal immigrants from obtaining most taxpayer-funded benefits, but he argued that in the decades since its passage “numerous administrations have acted to undermine the principles and limitations directed by the Congress.”
The people of Los Angeles really need to fire Mayor Karen Bass.
As it is now widely known, Mayor Bass was traveling in Africa when the incredibly destructive fires broke out in the city weeks ago. When she finally made it back to LA, she was questioned by a reporter and stood there silently, unable or unwilling to explain herself.
Now, weeks later, she has done a TV interview where she explained that she is launching an investigation into why she was allowed to go on her Africa trip when people knew there was a possibility of fires.
Is this the most absurd thing you have ever heard? Is it close?
It’s Time for Israel to Unleash Hell

After Hamas terrorists paraded the coffins of the Bibas children around Gaza before their Thursday release, it was hard to imagine that there was any room for the family’s tragic ordeal to get even worse. And yet, somehow it has.
A short while ago, the Israel Defense Forces announced a forensics examination identified Kfir and Ariel Bibas (who were nine months old and four years old at the time of their abduction) as two of the bodies returned by Hamas, determining that they were brutally murdered in November 2023.
While this tragic news was expected, another detail came as a shock: “During the identification process, it was determined
The vote is in, and Kash Patel is the new director of the FBI in another huge win for Donald Trump. [Tweet, video]
The final vote came in at 51-49.
Surprisingly, Kentucky Republican Senator Mitch McConnell, who announced Thursday that he will not be running for reelection in 2026, was a yes vote. He was a no on SecDef Pete Hegseth and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard (both were confirmed anyway.) [Tweet]
Alaska's GOP Sens. Lisa Murkowski and Maine's Susan Collins voted "nay."
The day started out on an ominous note
On Tuesday, Elon Musk responded to a proposal from James Fishback, CEO of Azoria, regarding a unique idea: the “DOGE Dividend.” This initiative aims to issue a $5,000 tax refund check to approximately 79 million American families, funded by a projected total savings of $2 trillion from DOGE. Fishback emphasizes that this dividend would not only compensate taxpayers for the misuse of their dollars but also help restore trust in government accountability.Fishback’s argument is compelling: the DOGE Dividend represents a social contract between taxpayers and their government, a much-needed refund given the egregious waste uncovered. As Fishback puts it,
