President AOC? Yes, it’s a real possibility.

Sunday is a “clearing the spindle” day, and one of the things on my spindle has been Nate Silver’s prediction last week that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, aka AOC, is currently the most likely person to be the Democrat party’s 2028 presidential candidate. Frankly, I think he’s right. She’s telegenic, has name recognition, and manages to make the same politics that killed tens of millions of people in the 20th century seem user-friendly. She’s also Bernie Sanders’ anointed heir, and he missed the nomination in 2016 and 2020 only because the Democrat party panicked. Last week, Nate Silver, while acknowledging that it’s early days yet, said he still thinks that it’s possible

Oregon pushes trans track
6 replies
The Trans Superiority Narrative (TSN) tells us men pretending to be women are special. They’re mystically in touch with a higher reality, a higher morality, a more authentic version of their humanity, their true selves. This exalted, superhuman status means they have “trans rights,” which cancel the actual constitutional rights of everyone else. The old axiom: “my right to swing my fist ends where another’s nose begins” doesn’t apply to trans, particularly not trans boys/men who want to beat girls/women in sports.
Normal Americans expected to accept this bizarre interpretation of rights and to fully accept the TSN and laud the “stunning bravery” of trans have long questioned their
Earlier this month, 17-year-old high school student Austin Metcalf was stabbed to death at a track meet in Frisco, Texas. Metcalf died in his twin brother’s arms.
As an educator who lives just down the road, I know too well how our system failed to keep Metcalf out of harm’s way.
Karmelo Anthony, also 17, has been charged with first-degree murder in the fatal stabbing. They had never met before the track meet, according a witness. Anthony brought a knife to the track meet and sat under another team’s tent. When asked to move, he reportedly refused and became aggressive. Metcalf stepped in to ask him to move again, to which

Joe Biden has been back in the news, but if he was hoping to rebuild his tarnished legacy, he is achieving the opposite result as his gaffe-filled appearances have merely reminded us of why he was not fit to be president and was forced to step down from his reelection campaign.
At his first major speech since Donald Trump took office, Biden on Tuesday began before the music stopped (which meant no one could hear him), rambled on about “colored” kids, tried to fear-monger that Trump wants to take away your Social Security—which he weirdly called a “psychic calm,”
Can you imagine what would have happened if President Donald Trump 45 had the kind of people in his cabinet in the 2020 Summer of Love that he has now? I often think about this. When I hear of another of another Tesla bomber being busted by the feds, however, it gives us a pretty good idea of what those days might have been like.
Trump didn’t make it to the White House in 2020. The overwhelming majority of those violent rioters who torched multiple U.S. cities, destroyed other peoples’ property, did billions of dollars in damage, and were responsible for the injuries and deaths of innocent people never did
Is it Time to Ignore the Judiciary?

It seems clear to me that the broad scope and speed of the administration’s actions have knocked the sense out of the media, the Democrats and, alas, the judiciary. They cannot seem to process the swift and expansive range of change without making themselves look ridiculous.

I could describe many examples but the easiest most complete one is that of the gang banger, wife beating, human trafficking suspect Salvadorean citizen who illegally crossed out borders and resided here. You know who I mean -- the thug the press describes as a “Maryland Man.”
So the nation is transfixed -- or at least Democrats and the news media --
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
Climate Myths

I guess United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres didn't think his hyping global warming risks brought him enough attention, so now he says, "The era of global boiling has arrived!"
Global boiling?
Give me a break.
Yes, the climate is warming.
We can deal with that.
What annoys me is politicians, activists and media pushing hysterical myths.
Myth 1: The Arctic will soon be ice-free.
It "could already be ice-free by the summer of 2030!" shrieks a DW report. "'Doomsday Glacier' is melting faster than scientists thought," adds the BBC. "Earth's biggest cities are at risk!"
Nonsense.
"It's not happening at nearly the catastrophic pace that they claim," says Heartland Institute fellow Linnea Lueken in my
I'm not a doctor and I don't play one on TV, so please take it as a non-medical, totally unprofessional diagnosis when I tell you that Taylor Lorenz is a high-functioning sociopath with murder in her heart and CNN's Donie O'Sullivan is one of the many moral cowards in the legacy dinosaur media who enable her.
Lorenz, you might recall, is a semi-anonymous child of wealth and privilege who went on to become a tech and privacy reporter for many of the big media names after having her personal life scrubbed from the internet. Her specialty, even before being virtually fired last year from the Washington Post, is playing
Stephen A. Smith, the fast-talking ESPN “quick take” guru (and occasional beef jerky salesman) is, in a roundabout way, a colleague of Joe Rogan: They’ve appeared together on ESPN’s UFC telecasts.
Rogan, of course, is one of the leading experts in cagefighting. He personally competed in martial arts tournaments throughout his early 20s and was an eyewitness to some of the biggest, most dramatic moments in MMA history. He knows the trainers and the fighters like the back of his (fist); they’re his closest friends.
So when Rogan heard Smith saying something stupid and disrespectful about a UFC fighter, he called him out. Here’s a short,
Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) has quickly positioned herself as the face of the Democratic Party. If she's not code-switching into being "street" in front of a left-wing audience, she's on cable news or in front of a podium at the Capitol Building trying to make news.
But now, she's got a new audience to contend with: The Federal Election Commission.
According to a new report, the FEC has opened a probe into a donation made to Crockett through the Democratic Party fundraising apparatus ActBlue.
The Federal Election Commission opened an investigation into firebrand Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, regarding donations to her 2024 campaign made through ActBlue,
In a age of lightning-fast information and leaks over secrets, it's remarkable how quiet things are on who may have been behind the two known assassination attempts on President Trump last summer, one of which almost succeeded.
We still don't know.
But Byron York at the Washington Examiner thinks the Ukraine angle of Ryan Routh's second attempt in Florida is worth a closer look.
He writes:
It is remarkable how little we know about the two 2024 attempts on President Donald Trump’s life. We don’t know much about Thomas Crooks, the 20-year-old who shot Trump in the ear during a July 13 campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. Nor do we know much

Tim Walz’s Daughter Says Trump Would
Have Deported Jesus And Claimed He Was

Have Deported Jesus And Claimed He Was
Part Of MS-13 30 replies
The 24-year-old daughter of Minnesota Democrat governor and failed vice-presidential candidate Tim Walz released a TikTok video in which she claimed that if Jesus Christ lived in the United States, the Trump administration would deport him and claim he was part of a deadly gang.
Walz appeared to be making a reference to 29-year-old Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an illegal alien who was deported to El Salvador and is suspected of being a member of the violent MS-13 gang. Democrats have sought for Garcia to be sent back to the United States, claiming that he has been denied due process.
A far-left pastor of a Florida United Methodist Church lit a candle wrapped in barbed wire in honor of accused MS-13 gang member and alleged wife beater Kilmar Abrego Garcia during his Easter Sunday service, saying the United States government “kidnapped” him.
The sermon was given by Rev. Andy Oliver of Allendale United Methodist Church in St. Petersburg, where he compared the El Salvadoran illegal alien to one of the criminals who were crucified alongside Jesus Christ before his Resurrection:
Monday, on the heels of the news of Pope Francis’ passing, MSNBC “Morning Joe” host Joe Scarborough launched a scathing attack on the so-called “hard-right” inside the Catholic Church.
Scarbourgh claimed the hard-right inside the church “hated” the recently deceased Pope for being “Christ-like.”
“I was just going say many on the hard right inside the church were shocked that this Pope would actually borrow from Jesus Christ and living that simple life, borrow from Jesus Christ, and they were radical words when he said it and it was like it was sounded the shot of a cannon. It just stunned everybody when the Pope said who am I to judge now?
After the death of Pope Francis at the age of 88, the world is waiting to see who will succeed him, as the Cardinals gather in Rome for the Papal Conclave. He was the first Latin American Pope, so did that signal a wider change within the Catholic Church and will we now see the first black or Asian Pope? Here are the top contenders to become the next Supreme Pontiff...
Pope Francis has died aged 88, the Vatican announced today.
The Pontiff spent his final weeks in hospital with an infection that developed into pneumonia in both lungs.
The Conclave - where cardinals gather in the Sistine Chapel at the Vatican to choose a successor - will not happen for at least 15 days.
Francis just yesterday greeted Catholic faithful who had gathered to see him at St Peter's Square on Easter Sunday. He delivered his 'Urbi et Orbi' benediction from a balcony overlooking the square following mass to mark the high holiday.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem's personal bag was stolen with $3,000 cash inside during a dinner outing at a Washington, DC, restaurant Sunday.
Noem’s bag also contained her driver’s license, passport, DHS badge, makeup, checks, medication, and apartment keys, a spokesperson confirmed to The Post.
Security footage reviewed by the Secret Service showed a white man in a surgical mask snatching Noem’s bag before leaving the restaurant.
The theft was first reported by CNN.
The Secret Service has launched an investigation to trace any use of Noem’s financial instruments. It is not clear whether a suspect has been identified or the extent of Noem’s protective detail during Sunday’s outing.
A recent report from an education watchdog has found that colleges and universities across the nation are still operating diversity, equity, and inclusion offices and programs, despite President Donald Trump’s executive order demanding an end to DEI initiatives among any organizations that receive federal funding.
Defending Education, the higher education arm of Parents Defending Education, published a report this week detailing how nearly 400 colleges and universities in the U.S. still operate DEI offices and programs. Only 16 colleges and universities have shuttered their DEI initiatives.
According to the report, 242 universities still operate DEI offices or programs, as do 162 schools or colleges. Defending Education also found
Pope Francis died on Easter Monday at the age of 88, after a long battle with respiratory illness — during which he was hospitalized for 38 days and nearly died twice — and a number of absolute ghouls on X have spent the morning attempting to blame Vice President JD Vance for the pontiff’s passing.
Vance, who was an atheist prior to his conversion to Catholicism, spent the holiday weekend with his family at the Vatican — and shared photos on Easter Sunday of his brief meeting with Pope Francis. Just hours later, however, the vice president shared his condolences after learning that the pope had passed.
Fort McCoy Garrison Commander Col. Sheyla Baez Ramirez has been suspended from her position after reportedly refusing to display official photographs of Commander-in-Chief Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
The announcement was made in a brief and carefully worded statement by Fort McCoy’s Senior Commander on Saturday, claiming the suspension was “not related to any misconduct” and that “no further details will be provided at this time.”
The statement reads, “Col. Sheyla Baez Ramirez has been suspended as Garrison Commander at Fort McCoy. This suspension is not related to any misconduct. We have no further details to provide at this time while this matter is under review.”
The twelve-year reign of Jorge Mario Bergoglio, Pope Francis, as the head of the Roman Catholic Church began shortly after the strange and still-unexplained resignation of Pope Benedict XVI, and seven weeks into the second term of Barack Obama as president of the United States. It was fitting that Obama was president during the first four years of Francis’ papacy, as Francis was the Barack Obama of popes: just as Obama did as president of the United States, Pope Francis worked to weaken, instead of strengthen, the institution he was leading, and to provide aid and comfort to its enemies, while confusing and maddening its ardent supporters.
BOSTON — Harvard University announced Monday that it was suing the Trump administration to halt a freeze on more than $2.2 billion in grants after the institution said it would defy the Trump administration’s demands to limit activism on campus. (Photo)

In a letter to Harvard earlier this month, Trump’s administration had called for broad government and leadership reforms at the university, as well as changes to its admissions policies. It also demanded the university audit views of diversity on campus, and stop recognizing some student clubs.
The shrine to Barack Obama, aka the Obama library at the Obama Presidential Center (OPC), is still under construction in Chicago.
Photos of the building made the rounds on social media recently, and the building is receiving harsh criticism, with some suggesting the barren, characterless building looks more like a prison than a library.
Biz Pac Review notes that the building, designed by Tod Williams Billie Tsien Architects, features an exterior wrapped in granite panels and is one of “numerous buildings on the massive 19-acre Obama Presidential Center campus, which has been priced at about $830 million by the Associated Press.”

Are a high enough percentage of American voters stupid enough to elect this vapid woman? Yes. We'd better work hard. Pondscum also rises to the surface.
