Gavin Newsom Is a Bust
Posted By: ladydawgfan, 3/13/2025 2:04:20 PM
Gavin Newsom is a bust, both metaphorically and literally. The California governor, who's trying to take his overspending and underperforming record national, is now in the middle of a bimbroglio over an expensive bronze bust of him displayed at San Francisco City Hall. Someday, I'll tell you the derivation of that contracted word that both describes Governor Hair Gel's political heft and his life as an unintentional chaos agent. The bust is one of the stories contained in Jedd McFatter and Susan Crabtree's book about the California rogue's gallery of leaders entitled, "Fool’s Gold: The Radicals, Con-Artists, and Traitors That Killed the California Dream and Now Threaten Us All."

Entrenched Democrat Rep. John Larson launched into a red-in-the-face tirade over Elon Musk’s mission to root out waste and fraud within government ranks.
Accusing Republicans on the House Ways and Means Committee of keeping the DOGE chief from testifying, Larson screamed and pointed at those on the floor while seemingly questioning Musk’s “genius.”
“Where’s the independence of the committee!” Larson screamed.
“Where’s Elon Musk? I’m sure he’s a genius and is a very credible person because of the wealth he’s accumulated, but that does not put him above the law or the responsibility to come before this committee in this Congress,” Larson yelled, completely glossing over the groundbreaking innovations
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) on Wednesday announced the arrest of a former intelligence member of Cuba’s communist Castro regime who fraudulently obtained a U.S. green card.
While ICE has not publicly disclosed the identity of the former Cuban intelligence officer at press time, HSI’s Miami division published a photo of the arrest Wednesday afternoon through social media, stating the arrest was carried out in collaboration with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
The arrested man, whose face is not seen in the picture but appears to sport gray hair, stands accused of having fraudulently obtained Lawful Permanent Residence Status in the United States.
The Trump administration requested the Supreme Court allow a ban on President Donald Trump’s executive order ending birthright citizenship for the children of illegal aliens to be partially lifted.
In a court filing, Sarah M. Harris, the acting solicitor general, wrote that the Trump administration’s request was a “modest” one to “limit the pause to ‘parties actually within the courts’ power,'” according to the New York Times.
The court request from the Trump administration comes after “three federal courts, in Massachusetts, Maryland and Washington State, had issued directives temporarily pausing” Trump’s executive order, according to the outlet.
On January 20, Trump signed an executive order
General Electric (GE) Aerospace will invest nearly $1 billion into American manufacturing, the Ohio-based company announced Wednesday, saying they are “aligned” with the Trump administration’s economic goals.
The aerospace giant also stated that they will hire 5,000 U.S. workers this year, Reuters reported.
CEO Larry Culp shared more about the good news with Fox News’s Maria Bartiromo, saying the business is “growing at a very rapid rate,” and that the major investment will “fuel” thousands of American jobs.
“We have a tremendous demand mountain to climb. We are excited about it, and those 5,000 people coming onboard in the wake of this investment will be a large part of our success,”
Since returning to the White House in January, President Donald J. Trump has been met with an unprecedented legal onslaught from far-left activist judges and groups determined to sabotage his administration at every turn.
Appearing on The War Room with Steve Bannon, Josh Hammer, Senior Counsel for the Article III Project, warned that what America is witnessing is not just judicial activism—it’s an outright judicial insurrection.
This is similar to how the communist left attacked him using a cadre of radical activist judges his first time in office.
After nearly two months in office, these radical extremist judges continue to wreak havoc on the Trump administration and the country.
Trump Makes His Enemies Insane

Say what you will about Donald Trump, nobody can argue that he doesn’t possess an amazing superpower. Actually, he has several superpowers, but his most powerful may be the ability to convince his opponents to defend the least popular possible positions just because he supports them. Not just contrary positions, not just positions that reasonable people can disagree with, but insanely unpopular positions that all normal people look at and are repelled by. There’s not a garbage hill they won’t choose to die on. It’s an incredibly useful superpower to have.
Of course, the most recent one is the 80/20 polling proposition against men pretending to be women
A group of pro-terrorism agitators invaded Trump Tower in New York City on Thursday in response to the arrest of Syrian national Mahmoud Khalil, who was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement earlier this week after organizing violent riots at Columbia University. [Tweet, video]
The agitators were quickly removed by New York City Police and arrested. They were detained and hauled away on buses.
"I'm happy to report there were no injuries," a city official on the scene said about officers who responded to the situation.
This week, the Soros-backed Center for American Progress (CAP) held a symposium on how House Democrats are reacting to President Donald Trump's national security strategy. There, star speaker Rep. Adam Smith (D-WA), ranking member of the U.S. House Armed Services Committee, led the collective coping-and-seething session.
"This is illegal, dumb foreign policy," Smith said in a statement ahead of the event. "It makes America less safe, less prosperous, and it will literally kill people."
At the left-wing think tank's roundtable Wednesday, the congressman claimed that Trump is "trying to revive a 19th-century world where might makes right and the powers-that-be grab what they can grab."
"That is not in our best interest,"
You won’t be surprised by the latest unhinged rant from longtime Democratic strategist James Carville—at this point, it’s just par for the course. Once a sharp political operator, Carville has devolved into a rabid left-wing activist, so consumed by partisanship that he’s lost any credibility as a serious political analyst. It’s seriously pathetic.
So, what has he done now to warrant my attention? Well, Carville had the audacity to claim that the Trump administration represents “the most serious crisis” America has ever faced. That’s right—worse than the Civil War, Pearl Harbor, or even 9/11. You can’t make this stuff up.
During an appearance on "The Chris Cuomo Project," Carville declared,
Remember the movie (or the novel) “Sophie’s Choice"? Meryl Streep won an Oscar for playing a woman whom the Nazis posed with a dilemma: choose one of her two children to send to the gas chamber, or else the Nazis would execute both of them. The choice haunted her after the war ended.
It’s a heartrending thought, and, sure, it’s a bit extreme for a metaphor, but in the fight over this continuing resolution, the Democrats are faced with what I’ll call Schumer’s Choice. The fate of the government is in the hands of Democrat senators now, and neither choice is good for them.
The continuing resolution gives the Democrats fits

Walt Disney studio chiefs might be feeling their own brand of flop sweat, as one indicator after another piles up that that company's $300 million bet on a live-action "Snow White" is going down faster than the Titanic if the iceberg had been armed with torpedoes and antiship missiles.
The Mouse House "won’t be rolling out a robust red carpet like it usually does" for a big-budget premiere next week, Variety reported Tuesday. Instead of a parade of movie stars and celebrities vying for attention on the red carpet and all the attendant big media names, the "Snow White" premiere

federal probationary workers after "unlawful" terminations 28 replies
Washington — A federal judge in California ordered six federal agencies to reinstate probationary employees who were fired last month, finding that their terminations by the Office of Personnel Management were unlawful.
U.S. District Judge William Alsup in San Francisco handed down his order in a challenge brought by a group of unions against the Trump administration from the bench. He said that neither OPM nor its Acting Director Charles Ezell had the authority to direct the terminations across agencies.
The order extends relief to fired workers at the Departments of Veterans Affairs, Agriculture, Defense, Energy, Interior and Treasury.

Democrat governors have a “resistance” playbook created for them that includes draft executive orders to defy the administration’s immigration policies as well as instructions on deploying the National Guard.
The Governors Action Alliance, a Democrat organization that founded the group Governors Safeguarding Democracy, provided such guidance to the staffs of Democrat governors across the country after the election of President Donald Trump.
The 126 pages of the playbook—including emails, talking points, and a “Firewalling for Freedom – Template Gubernatorial Executive Order”—were obtained in a public records request from the office of Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro by the private nonprofit watchdog group Government Accountability and Oversight
SAUGATUCK, Mich. — Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg is set to announce that he will not seek an open U.S. Senate seat in Michigan, a move that leaves the door wide open for him to seek a much bigger role as his party’s next presidential nominee. Since his role in the Biden administration ended in late January, Buttigieg has spent months considering his next move, including a serious look at the unexpectedly open U.S. Senate seat in Michigan, where he relocated in recent years. But many prominent allies he consulted believed he could not realistically pursue the Senate seat while
American Federation of Teachers honcho Randi Weingarten’s sudden outrage over Team Trump’s plan to abolish the federal Department of Education is simply about losing her own power and influence — not any risk to the kids.
America’s “competitors — and adversaries — are no doubt cheering President Donald Trump’s plan to dismantle the U.S. Department of Education,” Weingarten asserts in an MSNBC column, pretending the DOE “helps give all children in the United States access to the great public school education they deserve.” [snip]
“A gutted department would mean fewer teachers, more crowded classrooms and increased mental health and behavioral challenges for students,” she lies.

If failed vice-presidential candidate and current Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) made his intention to run in 2028 any clearer, it'd require him to rip his shirt off and paint it on his chest. He's clearly working toward a presidential run after faceplanting with Kamala Harris, and his strategy appears to be shouting and screaming his way to the nomination.
I'm less than convinced that will pay off for him, but here we go. America's finger-wagger-in-chief is on the case of Department of Education cuts, and he's furious at President Donald Trump about it.

Longtime Rep. Raúl M. Grijalva, D-Ariz., died Thursday from “complications of his cancer treatment,” his office announced in a statement. He was 77. Grijalva, who served in the House for more than 20 years, was elected to Congress in 2002. During that time he served as chair of the Natural Resources Committee, and most recently was the top Democrat on that House panel. He also was one of the leading progressive voices on Capitol Hill, and was the longest-serving co-chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, from 2009 to 2019. (Snip) Grijalva is the second House Democrat to die in office
A mere day after Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) proclaimed that Republicans don't have the votes to clear the way for a continuing resolution (CR) to fund the government through September, the New York Democrat has caved and will vote for cloture to allow the recently passed CR a vote in the Senate.
"Republicans do not have the votes in the Senate to invoke cloture on the House CR," Schumer proclaimed Wednesday. "Funding the government should be a bipartisan effort, but Republicans chose a partisan path drafting their continuing resolution without any input from congressional Democrats."
Schumer’s grandstanding on Wednesday sure looked like a bluff — a desperate attempt to strong-arm the GOP
This State Mental Health Advisory Board

This is going to be a shell of a story.
A member of Oregon’s Health Authority (OHA), an advisory board that deals with mental health policy, identified as a turtle during a recent state panel meeting.
J.D. Holt, who also goes by “J.D. Terrapin” on Facebook, opened her remarks by saying, “Hello everybody, it's JD. I use they, them and turtle for my pronouns. I'm in the Springfield-Eugene area and I get to be part of the council.”
No seriously, I’m not making that up. It really happened.
See? It’s on video. The council was appointed by OHA Director Sejal Hathi and was created to consult with Oregon’s government on mental health policies,
The hammer is about to drop on Act Blue, the Democrats’ golden goose of fundraising, as House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) teams up with the FBI to expose what could be the biggest money-laundering scandal in American political history.
In an explosive interview with Benny Johnson, Comer laid out a damning case against the far-left fundraising juggernaut, accusing it of funneling billions in suspicious cash—potentially from foreign adversaries—into Democrat coffers under the guise of “grassroots” donations.
Columbia University announced Thursday it has expelled or suspended students who expressed anti-Israel sentiments while occupying a campus building last spring. The Ivy League school has also revoked the diplomas of some graduates.
Columbia’s judicial board issued “multi-year suspensions, temporary degree revocations, and expulsions” related to the forcible takeover of Hamilton Hall, the New York university said in a campus-wide email. The number of punished students was not provided.
The announcement comes as Columbia faces a fierce crackdown from the Trump administration over the elite school’s failure to protect Jewish students and punish those engaging in antisemitism on campus.
