President Trump responded to a reporter pressuring him on new gun laws in the wake of the deadly shooting at Florida State University by reaffirming his commitment to the Second Amendment. In the process, the President pointed out that guns are not scary inanimate objects that fire on their own accord.
“Mr. President, there are now two deceased following that shooting at Florida State University,” a reporter confronted. “Is there any changes you want to see to gun legislation? Anything you see broken with gun laws in our country?”
Trump did not waver on his staunch support of Second Amendment rights in America.
The Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) has agreed to hear oral arguments in May on a case that centers on President Donald Trump’s historic executive order to end birthright citizenship for the U.S.-born children of illegal aliens.
On Thursday, the court issued a notice that oral arguments on the executive order will be heard on May 15. Immediately after Trump signed the executive order in January, the pro-mass migration groups CASA Inc. and Asylum Seeker Advocacy Project sued to block the order. The order seeks to eliminate the nation’s so-called anchor baby policy where about 250,000 “anchor babies” are born in the U.S. annually to illegal alien parents.
I don't know who thinks it's a good idea that Joe Biden wants to come " back" and get more involved again. You would think his handlers would have sense and just say "Enough" and time for retirement. We're already seeing how badly the "coming back" is working out: making weird remarks about "colored kids," confusing Ukraine and Iraq, and even dropping his ice cream on the ground.But if you thought that was already nuts, you ain't heard nothing yet. Guess how much Joe Biden (or his handlers) wants you to pay him if you book him to make a speech and stumble through a few remarks?
Despite leftist U.S. District Judge James Boasberg finding probable cause to hold the Trump administration in contempt of court on Wednesday for violating his previous order, Harvard Law School professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz believes Boasberg should be the one held in contempt instead “for issuing such a vague order.”
Boasberg attempted to block the administration from using the Alien Enemies Act for deporting Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang members, but Boasberg never issued a binding order, Dershowitz explained.
“He issues an order first orally, in which he talks about bringing the planes back. You can't just bring planes back. That's not easy. That might not be safe.
President Trump on Wednesday found a way around an effort by Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), who tried to block one of his nominees for a federal prosecutor role in New York.
Trump announced his appointment of Jay Clayton as interim U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, which would circumvent the Senate confirmation process that Schumer intended to block.
“I am pleased to announce that Jay Clayton will serve as the Interim United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York. During my First Term, Jay served with great distinction as the Chair of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and earned the respect of everyone," Trump said.

You might have thought that Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) would be back by now after he got rejected from seeing or talking with El Salvadoran national Kilmar Abrego Garcia in El Salvador.
That would have been smart. But he appears to still be there and still grandstanding. After being told bluntly by the Central American nation's vice president that the senator wasn't going to be able to get in to see Garcia at CECOT, it looks like Van Hollen decided to go there anyway to try to get in.
It didn't go well. He says he was stopped by soldiers.
A Democrat House member called on Wednesday to impeach President Donald Trump over his administration’s handling of a Supreme Court decision from earlier this month ordering the release of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a man in the United States illegally but who was mistakenly deported to a prison in El Salvador.
“Despite this ruling, the Supreme Court has no enforcement power, meaning the Trump administration can choose to ignore that demand,”
It’s not just Biden family artwork that’s struggling to sell these days.
Former President Joe Biden’s attempt to bill $300,000 per speaking appearance is finding few takers, The Post has learned — as some of his own former aides say it’s time for the 82-year-old to leave the spotlight for good after reminiscing about “colored kids” Tuesday in his first public address since leaving office.
A source familiar with Biden’s faltering speaking career said that the 46th president’s standard pitch is $300,000 — 25% below Barack Obama’s $400,000 asking price upon leaving office in 2017.
It’s unclear how negotiable Biden’s rate is.

The Supreme Court has agreed to examine the Trump administration’s challenge to judges issuing nationwide injunctions, setting a date for a case that could have a major impact on the president’s ability to carry out his agenda as well as on the entire country.
This comes after three federal judges issued separate nationwide injunctions blocking an executive order by President Donald Trump ending birthright citizenship for the children of illegal immigrants.
On Thursday, the court consolidated the three cases into one and set oral arguments to examine
Rosie O’Donnell said she never thought President Donald Trump would win another election, and lamented over her Irish citizenship application having not yet been approved.
“I never thought he would win again,” O’Donnell told the New York Times of President Trump, adding that she told her therapist, “If he does [win], I’m going to move,” recalling that her therapist had replied, “Well, let’s make a real plan.”
Now, O’Donnell may feel herself losing to Trump in another roundabout way, as her Irish citizenship has not yet been officially approved, the comedian told the newspaper, adding that she was worried about admitting that to a reporter, fearing it could impact the process.
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard declassified a Biden-era plan to counter domestic terrorism that called for greater information-sharing with tech companies and a legislative push to ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. Developed in 2021 after the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, the plan outlined a government-wide effort to track how foreign actors use disinformation to radicalize Americans and urged coordination with private industry on domestic threats. It also called for measures to curb in-prison radicalization and study extremism within the military.
Embattled New York Attorney General Letitia James is hitting up supporters for big bucks just days after the Trump administration accused her of alleged fraud involving several homes she owns.
The money bid is in the form of an invitation to an event on Tuesday from 5:30 to 7 p.m. calling for contributions starting at $500 and climbing to an eye-popping $18,000, the maximum allowed by New York law, in support of her 2026 re-election bid.

Death row inmates granted clemency by former President Joe Biden sued the Trump administration on Wednesday for ordering their incarceration under the most “oppressive conditions” available.
President Donald Trump issued an executive order on his first day in office that directed Attorney General Pam Bondi to ensure 37 death row inmates were “imprisoned in conditions consistent with the monstrosity of their crimes and the threats they pose,” which the lawsuit alleges is unconstitutional.
“By categorically condemning Plaintiffs to indefinite incarceration in harsh conditions in response to their receipt of clemency from the previous President, it exceeds the statutory authority granted to the Attorney General and her deputy,
Democratic Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer notched low favorability among voters in April, according to a poll from The Economist/YouGov released on Wednesday.
The survey found that just 23% of voters held a favorable view of Schumer, while 51% of respondents said they viewed the New York Democrat unfavorably. The poll comes after Schumer faced enormous intraparty backlash over his vote to help advance a GOP spending bill backed by President Donald Trump in March.
Several Democratic lawmakers have notably called for Schumer to step down in recent weeks, including Democratic Maryland Rep. Glenn Ivey and Democratic Michigan State Sen. Mallory McMorrow. Some left-wing youth activist organizations

President Trump is delivering on promises not to forget about the people who were largely abandoned by the Biden administration after a catastrophic hurricane destroyed much of Western North Carolina.

Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow said Wednesday on FNC’s “The Ingraham Angle” that Democrats plan to tie up President Donald Trump’s agenda in court until they can win majorities in the midterms and impeach him.
Host Laura Ingraham said, “Now, Alex, I think the lawfare, all the collusion among the attorneys general and the Democrat Party officials that they’re now admitting on camera, look, they’ve had some success, you know, in simply delaying Trump’s agenda. So they had to stay on the firing of the probationary workers, the stay on cutting certain grants, transgender inmates. So for them, is a delay a win?
As Democrats criticize tariffs as bad for business, the Trump administration’s Small Business Administration announced an almost 75% surge in loans to small manufacturers, The Daily Signal has learned.
“Loan applications and approvals for small manufacturers are surging—a clear sign that American manufacturing is roaring back, fueled by pro-growth policies that put American workers and businesses first,” said SBA Administrator Kelly Loeffler.
The number of SBA 7(a) loan approvals for small manufacturers has increased by 74% compared with the same period during the Biden administration, according to the SBA.

Most Americans are fully on board with Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) slashing millions of their hard-earned taxpayer dollars from the federal government. Even when we think we have heard the most outrageous expenditure found by the DOGE team, another one comes along. Many have suggested that they look into how members of Congress have become millionaires during their time on Capitol Hill. It's a great idea, but maybe an even better idea would be to ask how those lawmakers spend your tax dollars in their official capacities. Prime example: Who paid for Democrat Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen's trip to El Salvador?
Maryland Gov. Wes Moore (D) has endorsed Sen. Chris Van Hollen’s (D-MD) trip to El Salvador to ensure that an accused MS-13 gang member illegal alien is “brought back home to Maryland” after he was deported in March.
Instead of doing the job his constituents elected him to do in Washington, DC, the left-wing senator has taken time off to go on a trip to El Salvador “to discuss the release” of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran national who illegally entered the United States and lived in Maryland until his arrest by Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE):

Smugglers living along key migration routes thrived off the U.S. border crisis, but are now left with next to no income after illegal migrants have largely given up trying to reach the southern border under the Trump administration’s watch.

New York Attorney General Letitia James’s mortgage fraud problems just got even bigger, and may now include the possible breaking of campaign disclosure laws.
Questions are now being raised about a foreclosure sale in December 2008 that involved James as a purchaser. Documents show her name appearing on the “Final Foreclosure Accounting” for the purchase of a single-family home at 21 Peters Street in Martinsville, Virginia.
Two other names appear on the same document as additional purchasers, Johnsie Finney and Philip Finney. Interestingly, James’s first named is misspelled as “Letitua.” One has to wonder whether this misspelling was intended to make the transaction harder to track.
Nearly $9 million worth of methamphetamine was found hidden in a shipment of squash from Mexico at a South Texas port of entry, U.S. Customs and Border Protection said.
The drugs weighed more than 1,000 pounds and were found Sunday in 3,770 packages that were concealed in a shipment of chayote, also known as vegetable pear, at the Pharr International Bridge, CBP said Wednesday.
The drugs were in a tractor-trailer coming from Reynosa, Mexico, that was referred for secondary inspection. A canine team and nonintrusive inspection equipment led to the discovery of the illegal drugs, CBP said.
Staff at the headquarters for the New York Republican Party showed up to work Wednesday morning to find that swastikas had been affixed to the building in an apparent act of vandalism.
“If this is not what you stand for, prove it,” read a separate sign also affixed to the building with duct tape.
The Albany Police Department is investigating the incident after responding to the call Wednesday morning, spokeswoman Megan Craft said. No suspects have been publicly identified.
“It is currently an active investigation,” Craft said. No other information, including who might have perpetrated the vandalism, was available.
The recent deportation of MS-13 gang member and Salvadorian citizen Kilmar Ábrego García, whose gang affiliation invalidated his U.S. residency, has drawn attention to the Salvadorian prison where he is now being held. El Salvador’s Terrorism Confinement Center (CECOT) is the brainchild of President Nayib Bukele, who operated on the premise that anyone bearing gang tattoos was likely a member, since non-gang-members with gang tattoos were often killed by gang members. Bukele tasked his police and military forces with rounding up known gang members and domestic terrorists, many of whom are now locked away in this ultra-secure facility.
Since the crackdown began in March 2022, El Salvador’s murder rate has dropped

A majority of voters favor deporting all illegal immigrants from the United States, despite the ongoing leftist narrative suggesting otherwise — particularly when it comes to the recently deported El Salvadorian national, an alleged member of MS-13 whom Democrats are desperately seeking to return.
The latest data comes straight from CNN, which found that 56 percent support deporting an estimated 11 million illegal aliens residing in the United States. This is significantly up from 38 percent who said the same in 2016.

I want you to think carefully and see if you can come up with a single issue on which the leftist establishment sides in favor of normal Americans. Just one. Just one time when they prioritize the interests of normal people over the demands of weirdos, losers, mutations, illegal aliens, pinkos, perverts, and vegans.

Many people have observed that Trump is always on the 80 side of the 80/20 issues; what’s surprising is how eager the left is to go all-in on the 20s.
Aggressive enforcement actions along the U.S.-Mexico border led to a nearly 94 percent drop in the apprehension of illegal aliens attempting to enter the United States. The apprehension of migrants by Border Patrol agents fell to approximately 263 per day during the first two months of the Trump administration from more than 4,600 per day during the same period last year.
According to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Southwest Land Border Encounters Report for March, Border Patrol agents arrested 15,527 migrants who illegally crossed the border from Mexico into the United States during the first two full months of the Trump administration. This compares to the apprehension of 278,114 during

At least four people have been hospitalized after an active shooter was reported at Florida State University’s Tallahassee campus Thursday, officials said.
The school’s emergency alert system blasted out a warning just after noon urging students to seek shelter after the apparent shooter was reported near the campus’ Student Union area.
“Police are on scene or on the way. Continue to seek shelter and await further instructions,” the alert said.
“Lock and stay away from all doors and windows and be prepared to take additional protective measures.”
Four people were being treated at Tallahassee Memorial Hospital, a spokesperson told WCTV. The extent of their injuries wasn’t immediately known.
The Trump administration on Wednesday reportedly filed an appeal to counter a federal judge’s ruling that there is probable cause to hold it in contempt over the deportation of Venezuelan illegal immigrants.
Judge James Boasberg, on the same day, issued a ruling establishing probable cause for contempt proceedings, arguing that the White House refused to comply with his earlier order to turn around two planes transporting alleged Venezuelan gang members to a maximum security prison in El Salvador.
Boasberg claimed the White House acted in “willful disregard” of the order. “The Constitution does not tolerate willful disobedience of judicial orders—

Her lawyers say the accusations against her are retaliation for an op-ed piece she co-wrote in the Tufts University student newspaper.
One issue that has plagued college football in recent years is fake injuries. Players have faked getting hurt to give their teams what amounts to a free timeout. Some of these “injuries” have been obvious and obnoxious. [Videos]

The White House is always busy with activity – activity that affects the events going on around the world. But this week has been special for different reasons.
Something that may have gone beyond the headlines but didn't escape the attention of Christians throughout America was the president's bold proclamation of his faith in Jesus Christ. He issued a proclamation declaring this week as Holy Week, and

One of the top defense contractors in the United States, which has a history of pushing diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI), is facing heat over a massive government contract that critics say should be a prime target for Elon Musk’s DOGE efforts.
The Air Force’s Sentinel program, a massive intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) project serving as the successor to the Minuteman III program ensuring the future viability of the land-based leg of America’s nuclear triad, has been mired in controversy and slowdowns as Northrop Grumman was awarded the development contract and the endeavor has gone from a $96 billion program to at least $141 billion in recent years.
A naturalized US citizen living in Great Falls, Virginia, pleaded guilty on Wednesday to working with Iranian government and intelligence officials on their behalf in the US as a contractor for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) between 2017 and 2024.
The Department of Justice (DOJ) said 42-year-old Abouzar Rahmati pleaded guilty in federal court to conspiring to act and acting as an agent of the Iranian government in the US without prior notification to the Attorney General.
Rahmati previously was an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) 1st Lt., a branch of the Iranian Armed Forces, from June 2009 to May 2010.
The IRGC is a designated terrorist group by the US government.
We reported previously on Maryland Sen. Chris Van Hollen's grandstanding trip to El Salvador to talk about the status of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. He said his request to see or talk with Abrego Garcia was roundly rejected, with the Vice President of El Salvador suggesting he go through the American Embassy. They had to tell a Congressman how you're supposed to do things. But of course, he's not even asking about an American citizen; he's asking about a citizen of El Salvador. So it's a truly bizarre position of a Democrat going there to try to bring a man "home" — when he's an illegal alien.
The U.S. Justice Department is examining multiple real estate transactions involving state Attorney General Letitia James that date back decades after receiving a criminal referral on Monday from the director of the U.S. Federal Housing Finance Agency.

The years-long political tug-of-war over the permanent home of U.S. Space Command headquarters has flared up again, with House Armed Services Committee Chairman Mike Rogers (R-Ala.) claiming the Trump administration is poised to reverse a Biden-era decision and relocate the command from Colorado Springs to Huntsville, Alabama.
Rogers seized on a newly released Department of Defense Inspector General report that examined the convoluted history of the basing decision. According to Rogers, the April 11 report revealed that despite years of deliberation, the Secretary of the Air Force never issued a formal directive to relocate Space Command to Alabama, even though Air Force analysis had identified Redstone Arsenal as the preferred location.

By 2022, the last year she had to publicly file a financial report, it had grown to more than $3.2 million.

The Congressman Targeted By AOC

The freshman Republican Rep. Gabe Evans of Colorado was sworn in on January 3, but Democrats are already targeting him ahead of 2026. Those Democrats include Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), who bashed Evans while holding a rally in his district in March. Ocasio-Cortez told rallygoers they “deserve better” than Evans, whom she accused of plotting to “cut Medicaid.”
It’s no secret why the knives are out for Evans. He is the only congressional Republican who flipped a seat in a blue state in 2024, defeating incumbent Yadira Caraveo by less than a point. His primary fight was tough, too. Evans had the endorsement of President Donald Trump but

President Donald Trump recently teased tariffs on pharmaceutical imports, and his administration began ramping up probes into the issue this week.
The administration said these tariffs are necessary to bring pharmaceutical manufacturing back to the U.S., which it classified as a matter of national security. This comes as supply chain AI company Exiger sounds the alarm over U.S. reliance on Chinese-made pharmaceuticals.
In Exiger’s report, "A Bitter Pill: America’s Dangerous Dependence on China-Made Pharmaceuticals," the company explains that American patients are at risk of getting low-quality medication — or none at all — under the current system.

An Immigration and Customs Enforcement sweep that took hundreds of illegal alien criminals off the streets of New York City last week sent a clear message that the Trump administration is serious about cracking down on crime.
But the reaction of neighbors sent an even clearer message about how strongly Americans support ridding the country of criminal elements that shouldn’t be here in the first place.

Harvard alum and PragerU contributor Shabbos Kestenbaum praised President Donald Trump for freezing $2.2 billion in federal funding for Harvard University after the Ivy League school rejected Trump’s demands to crackdown on campus anti-Semitism.
During a Wednesday interview with Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow and Breitbart Senior Editor-at-Large Joel Pollak on The Alex Marlow Show podcast, Kestenbaum called Harvard “an elitist corporation” and said that it is a “no-brainer” that U.S. taxpayer money should not be funding “an institution that capitulates to the dumbest and worst and most radical elements” of society.
CNN ‘media reporter’ and resident potato Brian Stelter is defending PBS and NPR, saying that they’re ‘simply covering the news.’
Conservatives have been calling for the defunding of both outlets for years, correctly suggesting that these outlets take tax dollars yet provide incredibly biased coverage which always takes the leftist position on issues, frequently criticizing anyone to the right of Bernie Sanders.
Now that it looks like Republicans might finally pull taxpayer funding for both outlets, Stelter is running to their rescue, laughably trying to paint them as honest news sources.
A pair of earthshattering, history-altering, Chris Christie-sized stories broke this week, but they’ve (mostly) skated beneath the political periphery. That’s because you can’t grasp the sheer enormity of the consequences until you connect them together.
On their own, they’re inconsequential, back-of-the-page news stories — scarcely soliciting a shoulder shrug from political wonks. But together, as a one-two punch, it will change American politics forever.
And it will murder the modern Democratic Party. There’s been a slow-moving coup… but nobody’s noticed!
It’s tied to the larger political realignment nationally:
So much for the "he criticized Democrats" narrative that formed around Cody Balmer. The arsonist targeted Josh Shapiro and his family over perceived slights to "the people of Palestine," according to police search warrants, as well as Shapiro's Jewish faith.
The timing of the attack -- on Passover -- strongly suggested domestic terrorism in the first place. Now police and prosecutors claim they have evidence to back up that assumption, as well as evidence of Balmer's left-wing extremism ... in the familiar form of Che Fever:
The suspected arsonist who allegedly tried to kill Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro decided to firebomb
The Internal Revenue Service is making plans to rescind the tax-exempt status of Harvard University, according to two sources familiar with the matter, which would be an extraordinary step of retaliation as the Trump administration seeks to turn up pressure on the university that has defied its demands to change its hiring and other practices.
A final decision on rescinding the university’s tax exemption is expected soon, the sources said.
The administration already has blocked more than $2 billion in funding from the nation’s oldest university, which is fighting the White House’s policy demands, citing the constitutional right of private universities to determine their own teaching practices.
A star academic behind an influential but unsound study arguing that black infants die more often with white doctors has for years been privately beleaguered by plagiarism charges from her own subordinates and will soon depart her university, leaving the multimillion-dollar antiracism center she founded in jeopardy. University of Minnesota Prof. Rachel Hardeman’s rise to academic superstardom in the wake of the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis included major media coverage of her research on racial bias and maternal and infant mortality, a tenured position, and recognition as one of Time Magazine’s 100 most influential people.
A distant ocean-covered world, teeming with life.
That's the most likely explanation for a new discovery made by scientists, who say they have detected the most promising signs yet of life outside our solar system.
Using data from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), the astronomers, led by the University of Cambridge, have identified the chemical fingerprints dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and dimethyl disulfide (DMDS) – molecules that indicate life.
Here on Earth, these molecules are only produced by living organisms – primarily microbial life such as marine phytoplankton.
The molecules have been detected in the atmosphere of exoplanet K2-18b, which is located around 124 light-years from Earth in the constellation of Leo.
