What happened with Marine Le Pen, the most popular politician in France who was just banned from standing for election on the flimsiest of pretenses, is no exception. It’s becoming the rule around the West and in other places, too, where being outside the mainstream of authorized establishment left-leaning globalist politics has become criminalized. In some places, like the UK and Spain, it takes the form of persecuting people for saying things that those in power don’t want to hear.

The US has taken Europe on as Step-Countries for 80 years. It's long past time they were thrown out of the nest.
What's the term used derisively for Europeans: Euroweenies? Schlichter agrees.

What has happened to Le Pen is nothing less than the lawfare the Leftists waged against Trump. The Frenchies were successful. Le Pen is battling a deeper entrenched Left standing up for a population that has never known Freedom in the sense we Americans have enjoyed.

The U.S. government has issued a sweeping diktat prohibiting American diplomats, their families and security-cleared contractors in China from engaging in romance or sex with Chinese citizens. The Associated Press reported on the move, citing four people with direct knowledge of the decoupling policy which was put into effect by departing U.S. Ambassador Nicholas Burns in January shortly before he left China. The “no sex” policy applies to staff at the U.S. embassy in Beijing and consulates in Guangzhou, Shanghai, Shenyang and Wuhan, as well as the consulate in Hong Kong. U.S. personnel stationed outside China or those already in pre-existing relationships with Chinese citizens might be exempt,

I've never heard anything good about the United States Institute for Peace. It's been in bed with neocons, coupmeisters, and the Soros color revolution crowd for years. The quasi-government agency that runs like a private NGO is always sneaky and non-transparent. So it didn't surprise me a bit to learn that USIP showed unusual resistance to anyone poking into their spending from DOGE. {tweet] Did you hear how the staff as USIP acted when DOGE showed up? They literally BARRICADED themselves in their offices, cut the phone lines and power to elevators, sabotaged office equipment and the Head of USIP had to be arrested & removed.

Of Course They Are: Democrats Suing Trump

The Democratic Party has filed a lawsuit against President Donald Trump over an executive order designed to maintain integrity in federal elections. Because, of course they are. The suit, filed in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia on Monday, cites several plaintiffs, including most notably the Democratic National Committee (DNC), House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY). It's nice that Schumer and Jeffries got over their tiff long enough to join forces to stop the President from keeping non-citizens from voting. "In the United States of America, the President does not get to dictate the rules of our elections," the court filing reads.

Senator Mike Lee commented on a video that has been going viral around the net that is honestly stunning. Originally posted by Libs of TikTok, the video contains another person who was caught vandalizing a Tesla. These videos are a dime a dozen lately, but what made this one interesting was the kind of person who was caught, and their reaction to being confronted. The thing is, the person in the video wasn't a young radical with neon hair in a black hoodie. It wasn't a middle-class white woman screaming at the top of her lungs. It was a middle to upper-class white man who seemed honestly scared,

If Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) hopes his all-night theatrics on Monday will be remembered, thanks to one of his staff members, they will be. Booker’s staff member, Kevin A. Batts, was arrested Monday evening for carrying a pistol on Capitol grounds moments before Booker began an all-night speech on the Senate floor protesting President Donald Trump’s America First agenda, NOTUS reported. A NOTUS reporter witnessed the staffer, Kevin A. Batts, being arrested Monday at 6:29 p.m. Eastern as Booker prepared to begin his speech around 7:00. “He was handcuffed and placed in the backseat of a [U.S. Capitol Police (USCP)] vehicle outside the Senate-side of the Capitol,” according to that report.

A judge is barring President Donald Trump from ending the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) amnesty given to 530,000 Venezuelans — including Tren de Aragua gangsters — by President Joe Biden’s deputies. A California-based U.S. District Court Judge, Edward Chen, cited the migrants’ economic activity as if that entitled them to legal status regardless of U.S. laws and politics,[snip] The California-born judge was nominated by President Barack Obama. “This is what we mean by judicial tyranny,” responded Stephen Miller, Trump’s policy chief, adding:
Semiautomatic Firearm Ban, Ammunition

Gun controls, including a semiautomatic firearms ban and ammunition controls, secured final passage in the Colorado legislature Friday and have been sent to Gov. Jared Polis’s (D) desk. On February 20, 2025, Breitbart News noted that the semiautomatic firearms ban had passed the Colorado Senate. In order to secure Gov. Polis’s support, Senate Democrats added language to the ban which allows gun purchasers to secure an exemption to the prohibition by going through a process similar to concealed carry permit vetting, then taking a “four-hour training course.” Would-be purchasers who do not have hunter safety certification will have to go through a bit more training in order to secure the exemption.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., scolded NPR CEO Katherine Maher over her past statements during Wednesday’s fiery DOGE subcommittee hearing on alleged biased content on public media. After opening statements, Greene blasted Maher, who testified along with PBS CEO Paula Kerger and two other witnesses, for her previous job of overseeing Wikipedia, saying it’s a "platform that doesn’t tell the truth." Greene then read personal statements that Maher previously made on social media so the "public can understand" her views. Greene noted Maher has called President Donald Trump a "deranged, racist sociopath," has said America is "addicted to White supremacy" —

Four current and former sheriff’s deputies from Harris County Sheriff’s Department in Houston, Texas have died by suicide since February — including three in a span of one week, according to authorities. In the first saddening incident, retired Deputy Long Nguyen died by suicide on Feb. 6, according to local ABC 13. Weeks later, Deputy Christina Kohler, 37, who was found dead on March 13 after being declared missing for over a week, the station reported. Three days later, the body of former Deputy Maria Vasquez was discovered, with the Houston Medical Examiner ruling the death as self-inflicted. Vasquez had retired from the force in December 2024.

Rochester leaders scolded local cops for violating their sanctuary city policies after they responded to a request for backup from Border Patrol agents conducting a traffic stop. Border Patrol asked for emergency police assistance on Monday after pulling over a van with an estimated eight people inside. Rochester cops responded to the scene with lights and sirens, ordered the suspects out of the vehicle and helped put them in handcuffs, according to local WABC affiliate WHAM. It was not immediately known why the van was stopped. But the completely routine police response was enough to raise the ire of Democratic Rochester Mayor Malik Evans, who held a press conference on the incident Wednesday.

Something smells fishy about the latest developments in the ongoing 'Signalgate' situation, and it's not just The Atlantic's Jeffrey Goldberg's questionable ethics in lurking in private government communications. A deeper dive into Signal reveals connections that should have every American concerned about the intersection of Big Tech, liberal media, and government communications. [snip] It turns out that Maher, the current CEO of NPR, who testified before Congress on Wednesday, sits on the board of directors of Signal.“From 2022 to 2023, Maher was a member of the U.S. State Department's Foreign Affairs Policy Board, an expert panel established in 2011 by then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to advise U.S. officials.”

What is it you are hoping to learn from them?” Schiff said, “Well, today as you know, we saw the case, the corruption case against the mayor of New York dismissed with prejudice. That means that case can never be brought again. It wasn’t dismissed because of a lack of evidence.

The Uniparty is determined to severely undermine President Trump’s efforts to rebalance trade agreements worldwide and bring back millions of jobs from overseas. As The Gateway Pundit reported, President Donald Trump announced on Wednesday the implementation of a 10% baseline tariff on all imports, effective April 5, 2025. The worst offenders will be hit with even tougher measures on April 9. Speaking from the White House Rose Garden, President Trump proclaimed April 2 as “Liberation Day,” marking a new era of economic independence. He emphasized that this measure is essential to protect American jobs and revitalize domestic manufacturing.

One of former President Joe Biden’s senior aides admitted in a new book that the 82-year-old couldn’t grasp the back and forth of debate and would fall asleep by the pool while they prepped for his showdown with Trump, according to a book excerpt. Top Biden aide Ron Klain, who helped the former president with debate prep, was “half-seriously” wondering if Biden believed he was the president of NATO rather than the president of the United States, according to the excerpt of Chris Whipple’s new book published by The Guardian. While they prepped, Klain reportedly told Whipple that the then 81-year-old president “didn’t know what Trump had been saying

Germany’s Chancellor Olaf Scholz who is still technically in power nearly six weeks after he lost the Federal elections in February spoke in defence of the globalist status quo on Thursday.

Hamas is ready to release all remaining 59 hostages in Gaza in exchange for a permanent cease-fire with Israel, Palestinian officials said. As Israel ramps up its military campaign in Gaza, the terror group told negotiators it was prepared to free all its hostages so long as it gets assurance that Jerusalem will withdraw all its forces, a senior Palestinian official told the Times of Israel. It remains to be seen if the proposal will be accepted, as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has long rejected any deal that does not include Hamas’ complete defeat, including demilitarization and its permanent exit from Gaza.

NEW YORK — Financial markets around the world are reeling Thursday following President Donald Trump’s latest and most severe volley of tariffs, and the U.S. stock market may be taking the worst of it. The S&P 500 was down 4% in morning trading, worse than the drops for other major stock markets. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 1,520 points, or 3.6%, as of 10:10 a.m. Eastern time, and the Nasdaq composite was 4.0% lower. Little was spared as fear flared globally about the potentially toxic mix of higher inflation and weakening economic growth that tariffs can create. Everything from crude oil

The White House press corps declared war on the Trump administration on Inauguration Day, and the administration has responded, but only mildly. Most recently, by taking control over the seating of reporters in the White House briefing room. You might think that something so trivial would not engage the attention of the Left, but you would be wrong. Semafor reports: “Journalists consider briefing room sit-in as Trump clashes with White House press corps.” "The Trump administration’s proposal to take over the seating arrangement within the White House press briefing room has rattled the journalists who cover the president and left them mulling how exactly to push back.

Jihadists are murdering, raping, torturing, kidnapping, enslaving, and, in some instances, burning people alive — across Africa, and now in Syria. Local jihadist organizations go by different names, but the ideology that drives them is the same: Every one of them deeply believes that Allah wants him to wipe the world clean of the kuffar (infidels). More than 16.2 million Christians in Sub-Saharan Africa have been driven from their homes by jihadi violence and conflict, reports the human rights organization Open Doors. Women and girls are abducted, forced into "marriage," forced to convert to Islam, raped, and subjected to forced labor. Several girls have been forced to act as
