Trump Isn’t Defying The Courts, He’s
Defending The Constitution
Posted By: Harlowe, 3/25/2025 1:44:16 PM
On March 7, I argued in The Federalist that President Donald Trump should ignore a Supreme Court that would allow lower courts to refuse to uphold the Constitution and instead encroach on executive authority. [Snip] They do not check executive power--they seize it, substituting judicial preference for the president’s constitutional role. Article II gives Trump, not judges, authority over federal agencies and the military. [Snip] If Congress will not curb this overreach through impeachment--and with a divided Senate it likely cannot--the president must step in. [Snip] The American people expect Trump to do the job he promised. In an unprecedented fashion, he is doing just that.

Denmark on Friday found itself in President Donald Trump’s crosshairs. Trump appears to be honing in on what his administration is now arguing is a failure by Copenhagen to protect Greenland from Russian and Chinese aggression. [Snip] Vance said that Russia and China have been largely running unchecked in the area and "encroaching" on Greenland without proper protection from Denmark. [Snip] "When the President says we've got to have Greenland, he's saying this island is not safe,... A lot of people are making a play. ...Yes, the people of Greenland are going to have self-determination,..."We hope that they choose to partner with the United States.”
Tune in for Part 2 of the Elon Musk interview on "Special Report," Friday at 6 p.m. ET on Fox News Channel. [Snip] According to Musk, the rise in vandalism and attacks on Teslas stems from criticism of his leadership at the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), a federal agency that has cut millions in funding for government programs and reduced the number of federal jobs. He claims that rhetoric from Democratic leaders, especially those opposed to DOGE and his involvement, has fueled anger against Tesla and its supporters. "They are being fed propaganda by the far left, and they believe it," Musk said.
Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) head Elon Musk and seven members of the team shed light on the department's cost-cutting mission in an exclusive sit-down interview with "Special Report" Thursday.

A Greenlandic tourism business which was due to host Usha Vance has canceled the trip amid the Trump administration's 'underlying agenda' for the visit. [Snip] It was initially billed as a family-friendly holiday with Usha and one of her children... Then it emerged that she would be joined by embattled National Security advisor Mike Waltz, sparking fury among the nation's leaders--including the prime minister. But the final straw came when Usha's husband, Vice President JD Vance revealed he, too, would join her on the trip... [Snip] 'After closer consideration, however, we have now informed the consulate that we do not want her visit,' the store said.

The Atlantic's editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg refused to reveal the status of the phone he was using when the Trump Administration added him to a top secret war plans group text. [Snip] He also told Darcy he was not concerned about retaliation from federal authorities for publishing some of the messages. [Snip] ...he is considering releasing more of the group chat messages.

Democratic California Rep. Maxine Waters suggested President Donald Trump should investigate and potentially deport first lady Melania Trump during an anti-DOGE protest in Los Angeles over the weekend. "When he [Trump] talks about birthright, and he's going to undo the fact that the Constitution allows those who are born here, even if the parents are undocumented, they have a right to stay in America. If he wants to start looking so closely to find those who were born here and their parents were undocumented, maybe he ought to first look at Melania,"

Ohio could become the next state to protect children from obscene content online if legislation introduced last month becomes law. “We’re just trying to protect kids who are in the state of Ohio from adult content and the prevalence of obscene material in our society,”... House Bill 84, or the Innocence Act, would compel platforms to verify users are age 18 or older... [Snip] But the bill has found a powerful enemy. The so-called Free Speech Coalition, the “trade association for the adult industry” whose board is composed of porn executives, has targeted this measure. The FSC Action Center features a page tracking the bill among others it opposes.

[Snip] House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, also confirmed on Fox News' "America's Newsroom" that he intended to hold hearings on "activist judges" opposing the administration. He said he expects a House-wide vote next week on a bill...to block district judges from issuing nationwide injunctions. [Snip] ...House leaders were wary of the impeachment route given the intense political maneuvering such a measure would take--only for it to likely die in the Senate.

As Robert F. Kennedy Jr. settles into his role as President Donald Trump’s health secretary, one major promise he’s made is still on table - banning pharmaceutical ads.
Kennedy has been a longtime critic of the promotion of drugs on TV, and others high up in Trump’s cabinet and advisorship have agreed in recent months.
Drug advertising on TV
The backstory:
Up until the mid-1980s, pharmaceutical companies gave information about their products only to doctors and pharmacists. Later that decade, some drug companies began giving the general public more direct access to the information, according to the FDA, leading to the advertising that we see on TV today.
Canada Prime Minister Mark Carney delivers a speech to the nation notifying the Canadian people that the era of an economic and military collaborative relationship between the United States and Canada is over.
As the majority of Canadians cheer, the Prime Minister said that Canada as a free independent and sovereign nation will now embrace its connections to the United Kingdon and European Union and seek to replace their national dependency on the United States by severing ties in North America and entering a new era of close relations with Great Britain and Europe.
Judge James Boasberg held a hearing on Thursday afternoon in the lawsuit filed against Trump Administration officials for their use of the double-encrypted app Signal.
As previously reported, the left-wing watchdog group American Oversight filed a lawsuit against John Ratcliffe, Pete Hegseth, Tulsi Gabbard, and others, claiming their use of the Signal app violates the Presidential Records Act.
American Oversight boasts about its ‘activist litigation’ targeting Republican interests, especially the Trump Administration.
Now they’re suing Trump officials for using Signal to communicate about ‘military actions.’
According to Jeffrey Goldberg, National Security Adviser Mike Waltz, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Secretary of State Marco Rubio,
A popular manufacturer of coolers and insulated drinkware is facing criticism and calls for a boycott after it canceled a conservative women’s group’s order for mugs featuring their logo, which it had no problem fulfilling last year.

President Donald Trump talks about placing tariffs on Canadian goods. Ontario Premier Doug Ford talks about “inflicting as much pain as possible on the American people.” See the difference? Tell me again how the term “snowmexicans” is insulting. (snip\ Doug Ford doesn’t quite understand that tariffs on steel, aluminum and auto imports are not part of the “reciprocity” tariff regime. They are an entirely different category classified under national security directives to ensure American industrial capacity.
(snip) Doug Ford might want to consider the end of this continuum that finds the word “embargo”(snip)Perhaps President Trump would consider elevating the conversation to “reciprocity” in the banking
New York City's waste reduction efforts will commence a new phase next week, as the city's sanitation agency will begin enforcing a law-mandated composting program with fines.
Starting April 1, residents will have to separate food waste from trash or risk receiving a $25 fine from the Department of Sanitation. While mandatory composting became effecting in October 2024, the law passed by City Council established a warning period until April 2025.
What are the food separation rules?
Sanitation officials say they have deliberately kept the rules simple for residents. All food, yard and food-soiled paper waste must be set out in a bin on recycling day.

Tesla has become a lightning rod for violent attacks and vandalism in the months since CEO Elon Musk joined the Trump administration. Now, people who disagree with Musk’s role in politics are hoping to channel their emotions into something peaceful: a day of mass nonviolent protests at Tesla locations nationwide. More than 200 protests are scheduled to take place Saturday during what organizers are calling a global day of action, part of a campaign called “Tesla Takedown.” The organizers are hoping to damage Musk’s political standing by hurting the sales and stock price of the electric-car maker, the foundation of
Lawmakers and union members gathered on the Minnesota State Capitol steps on Thursday to speak out against Gov. Tim Walz’s plan for thousands of state employees to return to the office. Walz sent out a memo on Tuesday notifying government employees that starting on June 1, at least half of their shifts will have to be in person. The policy would affect about 15,000 of 40,000 state workers. “Workers are angry. Workers are threatening to quit over this,” said Rep. Luke Frederick, DFL-Mankato. “In conversations with the agencies, there’s questions about how even to implement this, about whether there’s even
The CIA claimed to have confirmed the existence of the Ark of the Covenant by way of remote viewing — aka extra sensory perception or ESP — alleging the mysterious and sacred object is guarded by “entities” with an “unknown” power, a recently resurfaced declassified document claims.
In a remote viewing session on Dec. 5, 1988, remote viewer #32 was tasked with identifying a target that, unbeknownst to them, ended up being the storied Ark of the Covenant, according to document, which was declassified on Aug. 8, 2000, and has been circulating on social media.
Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD), ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, says hundreds of illegal aliens “should have been afforded the right” to deny that they are associated with the Tren de Aragua or MS-13 gangs before they were deported from the United States by President Donald Trump’s administration.
As Breitbart News reported, Trump invoked the Alien Enemies Act to begin deporting hundreds of illegal alien gang members with Tren de Aragua and the MS-13 gangs, both of which are now designated as terrorist organizations.

Comments:
Highly recommend reading the article written by former attorney general of Indiana, Curtis Hill. ~ “It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, ... so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.” (Theodore Roosevelt)
