  1. I ran into my young florist friend yesterday and asked him how was business?
    “Lots of dead Italians,” he replied. The neighborhood around the shop was densely Italian. “Lots of funerals,” he continued. “They spend a ton of money. I think even more than on weddings.”
    “Are they all old people?”
    “How should I know? It’s not like I can ask.”

    Anecdotal information. Not worth much, right? So why is it worth getting attacked over?

    • This is interesting, I expect the eeLeftist to start working to stop this movement. It stays within the Constitutional restriction while proping up the States economies.

      The Fascist/Communists who are working to destroy Western Civ are discovering that a lot of people don’t like their goals and are working to stop their attacks.

      The price of gold is once again testing its all-time highs as both individuals and institutions flee the chaos of our times toward safety. What John Maynard Keynes decried as the “barbarous relic” just keeps coming back. The worse government policies become, and the more deranged and dysfunctional the Federal Reserve is revealed to be, the more people are turning to time-tested monetary truth

  2. The Only Crime I Have Committed Is to Fearlessly Defend Our Nation” – President Trump Releases New YouTube Video on the Democrats’ Destruction of Our Legal System
    By Jim Hoft Apr. 9, 2023 7:45 am2 Comments

    President Trump released a new video, “Indictment” on Holy Saturday. This is his second video posted on YouTube since he was allowed back on the platform by the far-left and thoroughly dishonest Google gods.

    The video starts with Sean Hannity’s coverage of the fake indictment and then includes several clips from prominent pundits: “Alvin Braggs, idiotic, small-minded prosecution. This will likely all backfire. In fact, it already is backfiring… Americans are very smart people and they see what’s going on. This is a persecution disguised as a prosecution… I would dismiss it on its face because it fails to state a crime.”

    Then Donald Trump comes in: “The only crime that I have committed is to fearlessly defend our nation from those who seek to destroy it. And now these radical left lunatics want to interfere with our elections by using law enforcement. We can’t let that happen. With all of this being said, and with a very dark cloud over our beloved country, I have no doubt nevertheless, that we will make America great again.”

  3. On this Easter, please remember the four Trump supporters who lost their lives on Jan 6. The Jan 6 committee forgot them but we haven’t.

    The January 6th Committee failed to mention 3 of the 4 Trump supporters who were killed by Capitol Police that day.

    And they only mention Ashli Babbitt in their report in passing. They do not include any details on how the unarmed Trump supporter was shot dead in cold blood by Officer Mike Byrd without warning.

    There are five mentions of Ashli Babbitt only to say she was killed that day.

    Here is one from page 665:

    “Members of Congress can be seen evacuating through the Speaker’s Lobby when a USCP officer fatally shot Ashli Babbitt at 2:44 p.m.”

    The January 6 Committee of serial liars did not mention the most important detail – that four Trump supporters were killed by Capitol Police that day.

    An Oxford college will not celebrate St. George’s Day this year on his April 23rd feast day. Magdalen College will celebrate the Muslim holiday Eid al-Fitr instead.

    Eid al-Fitr is not even celebrated on April 23rd. It’s two days earlier.

  5. It Happened Again: Former Top SF Firefighter Suffers Brain Injury in Brutal Attack Outside Front Door
    By Jack Davis, The Western Journal Apr. 8, 2023 9:45 pm335 Comments

    An attack on a former San Francisco fire commissioner proves that “no one is safe” in the city, according to a resident who lives near the site of the attack.

    Don Carmignani was bashed in the head outside of his mother’s home on Wednesday, one day after CashApp found Bob Lee was stabbed to death in the city, according to the New York Post.

    Carmignani, 53, was leaving his mother’s home when he was attacked by a man toting a crowbar.

    Joe Alioto-Veronese, an attorney and friend of the former fire commissioner, said Carmignani asked some transients blocking the driveway to move. In response, he was hit on the head with a crowbar.

    Garret Doty, 24, was later arrested on a charge of assault with a deadly weapon.

    Alioto-Veronese said the suspect “was actually seen swinging the pipe and walking around the neighborhood after the attack.”

    “It’s dangerous here and the fact that this could happen to a big guy like Don Carmignani, that tells us it could happen to anybody in any neighborhood in San Francisco,” he said, later adding that “ no one is safe in this city.”

    Merchandiser Claims No One is Buying Anheuser-Busch Products (VIDEO)
    By Mike LaChance Apr. 8, 2023 10:15 pm1298 Comments

    In a video that is going viral on Twitter, a merchandiser and Anheuser-Busch affiliate claims that no one is buying the products and his business is suffering as a result.

    In the video he says he has never seen so little sales as in the last few days. He laments the fact that when people don’t buy the beer, he doesn’t make money and can’t feed his family.

    It’s sad that this man is going through this, but it’s the fault of Anheuser-Busch for featuring trans performer Dylan Mulvaney.

    The people at Bud Light know they made a huge mistake. They have gone silent on social media.

    The New York Post reports:

      The second Bud Light Dylan ad of fem trans Dylan Mulvaney is making the rounds. In this ad Dylan is taking a bath with a swimsuit on while drinking soapy water and a case of Bud Lights.

      Doesn’t everyone like soapy water in their beer?

      It’s not clear what Budweiser is going for with this ad.

      Bud Light has a new ad with Dylan Mulvaney the fem trans guy to promote their BEER. It’s not clear if Dylan ever drank a beer. And it’s not clear why they would pick Dylan to be their spokesperson. But here we are.

    • Report Reveals the Alarming Reason Why Bud Light and Nike are Shoving “Transgender” Dylan Mulvaney in America’s Face
      By Cullen Linebarger Apr. 9, 2023

      Almost no one in America had ever heard of Dylan Mulvaney, a biological male pretending to be female before this year. Now he is suddenly all over the news.

      The reason behind his sudden emergence is chilling. The New York Post exclusively revealed that The Human Rights Campaign, the forefront of the leftist LGBTQ mafia, is utilizing a social credit score to force companies like Nike and Anheuser-Busch to either advance their poisonous agenda.

      These are precisely the tactics Chinese Communist Party (CCP) pulls with their citizens and companies when they say or do something contrary to the CCP’s mission.

      In addition, the HRC publicly threatens organizations every year by sending a list of demands in person over what they want displayed in public. Clearly, Mulvaney was part of those marching orders.

    A Polish deputy agriculture minister has proposed an “anti-bug law” which would require all food products containing insects to be labeled with a special warning.

    The move by the member of the ruling conservative party comes amid accusations that if progressive opposition parties win power during this year’s elections, they will push an Orwellian ‘eat the bugs’ campaign to restrict the consumption of traditional meat. The opposition has not formally announced any such plans, according to Notes from Poland.

  8. US Bank Lending Slumps by Most on Record in Final Weeks of March
    Alex Tanzi

    Bloomberg) — US bank lending contracted by the most on record in the last two weeks of March, indicating a tightening of credit conditions in the wake of several high-profile bank collapses that risks damaging the economy.

    Commercial bank lending dropped nearly $105 billion in the two weeks ended March 29, the most in Federal Reserve data back to 1973. The more than $45 billion decrease in the latest week was primarily due to a a drop in loans by small banks.

    The pullback in total lending in the last half of March was broad and included fewer real estate loans, as well as commercial and industrial loans.

    Friday’s report also showed commercial bank deposits dropped $64.7 billion in the latest week, marking the 10th-straight decrease that mainly reflected a decline at large firms.

    The slide in lending follows the collapse of several firms including Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank.

  10. Access to abortion pill in limbo after competing rulings
    By PAUL J. WEBER, MATTHEW PERRONE and LINDSAY WHITEHURST
    April 8, 2023 GMT
    AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Access to the most commonly used method of abortion in the U.S. plunged into uncertainty Friday following conflicting court rulings over the legality of the abortion medication mifepristone that has been widely available for more than 20 years.

    For now, the drug the Food and Drug Administration approved in 2000 appeared to remain at least immediately available in the wake of two separate rulings that were issued in quick succession by federal judges in Texas and Washington.

    U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk, a Trump appointee, ordered a hold on federal approval of

    • That’s a Stunning Position!’ CNN’s Dana Bash to AOC on Telling Biden Regime to Ignore Trump-Appointed Judge’s Abortion Pill Ruling (VIDEO)

      TruthGettrGab

      Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY) appeared on CNN’s “State of the Union” to discuss competing orders on access to the abortion pill mifepristone.

      Federal judges on Friday issued dueling orders on access to abortion pills, setting up a Supreme Court battle.

      “U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk, a Trump appointee, ordered a hold on federal approval of mifepristone in a decision that overruled decades of scientific approval. But that decision came at nearly the same time that U.S. District Judge Thomas O. Rice, an Obama appointee, essentially ordered the opposite and directed U.S. authorities not to make any changes that would restrict access to the drug in at least 17 states where Democrats sued in an effort to protect availability.” AP reported.

    • These rulings have touched off a constitutional crisis, this cases is headed for the Supreme Court. Their ruling will determine how much chaos is coming, ruling in favor on the ban will cause a lot of riots. Ruling against the ban will allow people to break the law in states that don’t allow many abortions.

      An indication of how the Dems think about the rule of law is AOC’s statement that the Obiden administration should ignore the Court ruling and do what it wants. The left wants an Imperial Presidency when the control the White House and a Ceremonial one when they don’t. This is why they work so hard to steal elections and are happy to have a brain dead President and one brain dead Senator.

  11. Putin prepares for an invasion of Crimea: Beaches are covered with trenches and tank traps to repel an amphibious landing as Zelensky ‘prepares spring offensive’
    By Will Stewart and Milo Pope
    06:10 EDT 08 Apr 2023 , updated 10:37 EDT 08 Apr 2023

    Barricades and trenches have been built on beaches and close to key access routes in Crimea on a massive scale as Vladimir Putin is scared of losing the peninsula he annexed in 2014.

    The level of fear is clear from the abundance of defences to stop a sea or land assault.

    Dragon’s teeth tank traps have been placed at strategic Ak-Monai beside the Taurida highway by occupying Russians to stop a Ukrainian bid to grab back the peninsula Putin took in 2014.

    Putin has accepted he must decimate the region’s huge tourism industry this summer to hold it against a possible Ukrainian advance as part of an expected Kyiv counteroffensive.

    The scale of the operation is seen on both satellite images and ground level pictures.

  14. Trump Should Fight
    Fire With Fire
    While the regime’s courts may not give Trump a fair trial, the real trial and the real jury is to be found in
    the court of public opinion.

    By Paul Ingrassia
    April 8, 2023
    John Adams may have summed up the American experiment best: “We are a government of laws, not men.” This was the origin of all talk of a “rule of law.”

    Alas, we are currently a nation in manifest decline. Accordingly, “rule of law,” the cornerstone of our judicial system, must be radically reassessed. The concept, much like the justice system as a whole, has been contaminated, perhaps irrevocably, by bad-faith actors, for which the Constitution, understood in its proper, historical context, is totally foreign. Our historic Constitution ought to be understood as hopelessly forgotten by those now tasked to defend its sacred tenets. And so accounts for the present chaos.

    Enter Alvin Bragg, chaos made flesh, whose occupation it is said to be to uphold the “rule of law.” Of course, in an age where sophisticated deep-state actors can manipulate critical swaths of public opinion on a whim by tinkering with the mechanics of the modern-day bureaucratic state, “rule of law” is transformed into “rule by propaganda,” a rogue powerplay in which the victor is determined by that side with the largest megaphone.

    In theory, this would seem to doom Donald Trump’s prospects of a comeback—and whatever traces of the old America that remain. The Left’s monopoly of power within every institution of import goes a long way towards explaining why someone as mediocre as Bragg can invent out of thin air the legal terminology the rest of us are all forced to accept. We find ourselves unwittingly down a hopeless rabbit hole, wherein the world is recast in the image of Bragg’s pitifully wanting intellect, by which any opposition engages in endless and ultimately futile debate over whether the “crime” charged has any legal basis.

    Meanwhile, we are left to rationalize why this witch hunt is not a question about whether Donald Trump, a former president, is “above” or “below” the law, as if we are talking about “the law” in any meaningful sense of the term.

    By arguing in these terms, we have already lost because we have prima facie adopted the Left’s legal frame of reference hook, line, and sinker. Now, it may not be possible to fully escape that matrix, given how deep the corruption runs in our judicial system. Ergo, rule of law should be understood to mean rule by force of will in dealings with the Left.

    Still, it is easier than it appears to transform and elevate public opinion—even in, or perhaps especially in, this atmosphere of moribund and contrived deep state agitprop. The question therefore becomes how best to exploit the same mechanisms now weaponized by Trump’s enemies to countersignal an alternative narrative: namely, one that both undermines Bragg’s authority and the regime and its narrative in general.

    How might this be done?

    One only need look to the grand spectacle of Trump’s New York City homecoming—an entire section of Fifth Avenue was cordoned off; the block around Trump tower was barricaded; several helicopters flew overhead, while masses of peripatetic onlookers flooded the streets. The entire scene was historic, not simply for the solemn gravity of the occasion, but also for how large and unprecedented in scale as a media event it was.

    That latter fact should not be lost on Trump and his team of lawyers, who are looking to make a case against a system that has already determined the president’s fate, evidenced by how factually deficient each and every one of the 34 “counts” found in Bragg’s indictment were. From day one, the Left had already decided that Trump would be guilty. He is guilty in their minds of whatever he is charged because his one true crime—standing for the American people and putting their interests first—exposed their own. Trump was convicted on the day he descended the escalator in June of 2015. He is an enemy of the regime.

    Trump’s true power, which is the unspoken source of authority in a mass democracy, is his unrivaled ability to choreograph narratives that make him and his policies an attention-grabbing spectacle. That source of authority, which might be classified as “extra-legal” or “extra-constitutional,” in the end commands greater power than conventional legal mechanisms, which merely verbalize and incubate values born of state propaganda.

    In the modern state, and particularly in a regime like the United States today, authority derives not from some valueless and amorphous “rule of law,” a legal fiction at this point. We know now the “rule of law,” like “Our Democracy™” is merely the written or logographic expression of regime-manufactured “culture;” its authority derives not from its substance, but from who controls the channels by which such propaganda is disseminated among the body politic.

    Thus, even though most of the press generated in response to the Bragg indictment and Trump’s homecoming was “negative” with respect to Trump, the old adage “any publicity is good publicity” is truly what matters for establishing legitimacy. Because nobody can hold a candle to what Trump can do in terms of generating a mass spectacle, Trump must continue to exploit that power—and to weaponize it in such a way as to force the hand of his enemies.

    While the regime’s courts may not give Trump a fair trial, the real trial and the real jury is to be found in the court of public opinion. Public opinion is manufactured consent, by and large. Trump offers the most potent antidote—and only meaningful alternative—to the prevailing narrative of the regime. Because Trump’s message is, in contrast with that of the regime, positive, life-affirming, and accommodating of (rather than in opposition to) nature, it makes his offering even more powerful.

    Trump has the singular ability to destroy the regime narrative, which looks increasingly like anti-theology, for good. This is the real reason he is considered so dangerous to his enemies. This formula pairs mastering the art of publicity with the art of truth telling, which appeals to the better angels of a citizenry, even one that has been subjected to rapacious indoctrination and all sorts of spiritual, intellectual, and physical castration. The sooner Trump and his lawyers recognize this authority, the better positioned they will be to fight back against a terminally rigged justice system.

    In America, law is process, process, and more process. Trump’s art of publicity offers a far superior process than anything that might be conceivable using conventional juridical channels. Trump may have no other option than to cooperate with the rules established by Bragg, but his scope should not be limited to those procedures offered by the justice system alone.

    Instead, Trump should broaden his horizons for what is possible in terms of establishing his innocence. He should thus use the authority from his bully pulpit not only to demonstrate his innocence but to drive a nail into the coffin of whatever morsel of legitimacy remains in those institutions seeking to toll his political death knell. That would establish a new, greater source of legitimacy, one finally grounded in truth, out of which a new regime might come to life from out of the ash heap of the old.

  15. Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.
    Makes a Run
    The environmental lawyer and vaccine safety activist is skeptical of today’s Democrats and promises to focus on the
    “values we have in common.”

    By Debra Heine
    April 8, 2023
    Environmental lawyer and vaccine safety activist Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., filed paperwork with the Federal Election Commission on Wednesday to run for president in 2024 as a Democrat. RFK Jr. is the son of former U.S. attorney general and assassinated 1968 presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, and the nephew of the late President John F. Kennedy.

    The 69-year-old reportedly plans to make a formal announcement of his candidacy on April 19 in Boston, with a campaign slogan of “freedom first.” He is the second candidate to declare a run for the Democratic nomination, joining the eclectic spiritualist Marianne Williamson, who announced her candidacy on March 4.

    As a member of the Kennedy political dynasty, RFK Jr. was once highly revered in Democratic political circles. But now, as his Wikipedia page tells us, he is known primarily for “promoting anti-vaccine propaganda and conspiracy theories.”

  16. New Zealand’s Jacinda Ardern Who Labeled COVID Lockdown Opponents “Extremists” Will Take on New Role Fighting “Online Extremism”
    By Joe Hoft Apr. 9, 2023 10:15 am106 Comments

    The former Prime Minister of New Zealand, Jacinda Ardern resigned earlier this year. She now is reportedly taking on a new roll of taking on extremism for the Royal Family after having destroyed the rights of New Zealanders during COVID.

    While New Zealand’s Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern raised hell on her citizens, destroying the rights of those in her country.

    New Zealand communist Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern labeled internet freedom a “weapon of war” in her most recent UN speech before the General Assembly last year.

    Leftist Ardern, who ruled her country like a 20th Century despot during the COVID pandemic, called out for a new type of internet with “rules and transparency.”

    the next breath, she said she “values free speech so highly.” She is the typical leftist elitist leader in the world today. And she insists on giving Communist Justin Trudeau a run for his money.

    It’s now being reported that Ardern has been embraced by the British royal family and given a new role fighting “online extremism.” This effort to shut down free speech sounds like a perfect fit for Ardern.

  17. REVEALED: “Transgender” Terrorist Who Wanted to Blow Up Colorado Middle School is an Avowed Communist and Deranged Trump Hater – Planned More School Attacks (VIDEO)
    By Cullen Linebarger Apr. 9, 2023 10:40 am113 Comments

    Colorado Springs, Colorado -The Gateway Pundit reported last week that Colorado Springs police stopped a male-to-female “transgender” person from blowing up a middle school on March 31.

    The suspect, 19-year-old William Whitworth, who identifies as “Lilly” and uses she/her pronouns, had laid out extensive plans to plant bombs at and shoot students at Timberview Middle School in Colorado Springs that same day. This came just a week after another trans brutally murdered six people, including three children at a Christian school in Nashville, Tennessee.

    Whitworth mapped out a floor plan of Timberview Middle School and had expressed violent intent towards his sister earlier in the day. This caused her to call the police, who arrived to the residence a short time later.

    Police found Whitworth lying in bed, drunk, in a room piled with trash that had several holes in the wall. Whitworth was arrested on suspicion of attempted first-degree murder and other charges after admitting to wanting to shoot up a school.

    During a search of Whitworth’s home, deputies found a manifesto that outlined support for political figures and idolized other mass shooters, though specific details were not released to the public at the time.

    KRDO reports that the manifesto written by Whitworth has now been released. It shows he planned to target two additional schools in addition to Timberview and contains significant details on how to carry out the Timberview shooting.

    Per KRDO, a brief of the manifestos contents detailed:

    Detailed lists of numerous named individuals to be killed and their indented casualty versus injury rate.

    Information detailing the creation of improvised explosive devices.

    The finalization of locations being Timberview Middle School, Prairie Hills Elementary, and Pine Creek High School

    Here is a video of the report:

    The manifesto’s contents further show Whitworth hating on President Donald Trump, police, and conservative filmmaker Lauren Southern. Whitworth also expresses his thoughts on other mass shooters (these names are bolded).

    Eric and Dylan: Losers

    Adam Lanza: Too smart

    Israel Keyes: Degenerate

    Lauren Southern: Pathetic

    Donald J. Trump: Con-man

    Bad cops: Useless garbage

    KRDO also reports that police found “The Communist Manifesto” during the search of Whitworth’s home. The book, which was written by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels in 1848, gave birth to an ideology responsible for the deaths of 100 million people.

    Thanks to the work of police and local media, we now know Whitworth was an avowed communist who hated Trump and wanted to go down as one of the worst terrorists in American history.

    We also know this is precisely why the corporate media never bothered to touch this story.

    Whitworth has a preliminary hearing scheduled for May 5, 2023. The bond is currently set at $75,000.

    By Cullen Linebarger Apr. 9, 2023 11:20 am13 Comments

    Binghamton, New York – A New York woman is claiming police brutality caused her to miscarry her unborn child during an arrest last month despite evidence to the contrary.

    As reported by News 12, New York Sate Police on March 20 attempted to pull over Quashaia Oranchak, who was six and a half months pregnant. Police say she refused to comply and fled.

    The officers then say another state trooper pulled in front of her and his car was hit by Oranchak’s vehicle, ending the escape attempt.

    Oranchak was arrested and taken to the State Police barracks and then the Broome County Correctional Facility according to News 12.

    Los Angeles LGBT Center to Host Drag Queen March with Honey Davenport on Easter Sunday to Mock Christians
    By Jim Hoft Apr. 9, 2023 11:40 am6 Comments

    On Easter Sunday the LGBT Center in Los Angeles is hosting a drag queen march in West Hollywood Park to mock Christians on their most blessed holiday.

    The drag queen march will start at 10 AM in West Hollywood Park and will end at 1 PM. The event will include performances by Honey Davenport and Kerri Colby.

    This is clearly an assault on the Christian faithful.

    Drag queens and Democrats are OUTRAGED that Americans are pushing back on their pornographic shows with children. In typical Democrat fashion they insist this is an assault on ALL drag queens. In reality it is a protest against exposing children to pornography and inappropriate sexual entertainment.

    Keep the drag shows for adults.

    We still have R and X rated movies. Adult entertainment is no different.

  20. WATCH: Becerra and AOC Throw the Rule of Law Under the Bus in New Remarks on Abortion Pill Decision
    By Nick Arama | 12:45 PM on April 09, 2023

    On Friday evening, a Texas federal court ruled to suspend the FDA’s approval of mifepristone, one of the two drugs used in combination to cause an abortion. The ruling is paused for seven days so the federal government may appeal.

    U.S. District Court Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk ruled in favor of pro-life medical groups challenging the FDA’s approval of the drug. He ruled that “both the initial approval of the pills in 2000 as well as more recent FDA decisions allowing them to be prescribed via telemedicine, sent by mail and dispensed at retail pharmacies, are unlawful,” according to the report.

    That caused a meltdown of monumental proportions on the left, with calls from people like Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) to ignore the ruling. AOC said it was up to the Biden administration to “choose” whether or not to enforce it. Wyden said that Biden “can and must ignore this ruling.”

    This devastating ruling has no basis in law and will ban the most common method of abortion in EVERY single state.

    This shows once again how lawless the Biden team is, how they think they are above the law. There are no “moderates.” They’ve all become the radical left like AOC. Ocasio-Cortez reiterated her position on Sunday as well saying she didn’t think federal courts had the authority to tell the FDA what to do:

    Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: “I do not believe that the courts have the authority to have the authority over the FDA that they just asserted.” ? pic.twitter.com/JgIrUz5FQE

    — RNC Research (@RNCResearch) April 9, 2023

    She doesn’t seem to have any idea how the law works. Not that it would matter to her. She thinks the magical “D” means they can do what they like, and hang the law. The state should get to dictate to the people, she seems to think, regardless of what the law says.

    Notice also how the media seems to blissfully go along with this, as though this is normal, and not an intent to undermine the very nature of our constitutional system. An “insurrection,” you might call it. The media doesn’t even seem to do much to question, much less condemn this radical position, because they likely agree with the position politically.

    But it’s Republicans who are attacking the foundations of our system? The Democrats need to look in the mirror on that one. The only ones threatening the rule of law are them.

    • HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra Says Biden Regime will Ignore Trump-Appointed Judge’s Abortion Pill Ruling (VIDEO)
      By Cristina Laila Apr. 9, 2023 12:40 pm88 Comments

      Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra on Sunday said the Biden Regime will ignore a federal judge’s ruling to suspend the FDA’s approval of the abortion pill mifepristone.

      Federal judges on Friday issued dueling orders on access to abortion pills, setting up a Supreme Court battle.

      “U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk, a Trump appointee, ordered a hold on federal approval of mifepristone in a decision that overruled decades of scientific approval. But that decision came at nearly the same time that U.S. District Judge Thomas O. Rice, an Obama appointee, essentially ordered the opposite and directed U.S. authorities not to make any changes that would restrict access to the drug in at least 17 states where Democrats sued in an effort to protect availability.” AP reported.

      The Biden Regime vowed to fight the Texas judge’s ruling to suspend the FDA’s approval of the abortion pill mifepristone.

      Xavier Becerra appeared on CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday to discuss the competing orders with host Dana Bash.

      Becerra said that “everything is on the table” including ignoring the federal judge’s ruling.

  21. 63 Chinese Christians Find Refuge In America On Good Friday After Fleeing Persecution
    By Leif Le Mahieu
    Apr 8, 2023 DailyWire.com

    Sixty-three Chinese Christians who were facing expulsion back to China have been given shelter in the United States after being detained in Thailand.

    The Christians are members of the Shenzhen Holy Reform Church, also known as the “Mayflower Church,” and left China due to religious persecution in November 2019. They had hoped to be granted refugee status in Thailand by the United Nations, but instead they faced immigration-related charges.

    The group, led by Pastor Pan Yongguang, a minister ordained by the Presbyterian Church of America (PCA), landed at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport on Friday. It had been a tumultuous three years for the group, who initially had attempted to stay in South Korea before moving to Thailand.

    This is a successful example of nonpartisan, international cooperation,” ChinaAid CEO Chad Bullard said. “We are thankful to all parties including various U.S. government agencies, particularly the State Department’s International Religious Freedom Office led by Ambassador Rashad Hussain, the U.S. Embassy in Bangkok, USCIRF, and a number of congressional offices including Chairman Mike McCaul and Chairman Chris Smith.”

  22. NYC Police Search for Anti-Semitic Teens Involved in Several Passover Attacks
    By Jim Hoft Apr. 9, 2023 12:20 pm4 Comments

    New York City Police are looking for three teens involved in several Passover attacks this past week.

    The teens were screaming anti-Semitic slurs as they assaulted their Jewish victims in New York City.

    CrimeStoppers released video of the three teen assailants.

    The New York Post reported:

    A group of anti-Semitic teens in Queens are wanted for a series of disturbing attacks on the third day of Passover.

    Two boys and girl allegedly approached a 49-year-old man at Caffrey Avenue and Mott Avenue around 2:45 p.m. Friday and began throwing rocks at him while shouting hateful comments, police said.

    The girl then brandished a razor towards the victim before a Good Samaritan intervened and the suspects fled, according to cops

    • Melbourne, Florida – There should be a special place in Hell for individuals like this.

      Brevard County Sheriff Wayne Ivey announced, during a press conference Saturday, that two health care workers were arrested after cruelly abusing a helpless woman with dementia and livestreaming the event so their friends could mock the poor lady as well. The incident occurred on April 3 according to Florida Today.

      As Fox News reported, the first suspect, 18-year-old Jada Harris, was arrested for video voyeurism, abuse, and neglect of elderly or disabled adult, and interception or disclosure of wired communications. Her bond has been set at $6,000.

      The second woman, 20-year-old Shy’Tiona Bishop, was arrested by police for video voyeurism and abuse and neglect of elderly or disabled adult. Her bond is $4,000.

      Ivey did not mince words while announcing the arrests of these two monsters.

      I’m disgusted. The perpetrators in this case are not only disgusting but they are vile individuals who livestreamed themselves abusing one of our elderly citizens who suffers from dementia.

      They actually put it up on a livestream platform so that their friends could watch it, laugh about it, as they mocked this elderly person.

      We have no choice but to resist the society that the Neobarbarians are trying to build. We became complacent and ignored the dangers of normalizing abhorrent sexual behaviors and casual drug use. Now we are paying the price, we are having to fight politically and in the near future physically to ensure freedom and the rule of law do not die. )

  23. New York Post – Inside the CEI system pushing brands to endorse celebs like Dylan Mulvaney

    Executives at companies like Nike, Anheuser-Busch and Kate Spade, whose brand endorsements have turned controversial trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney into today’s woke “It girl,” aren’t just virtue signaling.

    They’re handing out lucrative deals to what were once considered fringe celebrities because they have to — or risk failing an all-important social credit score that could make or break their businesses.

    At stake is their Corporate Equality Index — or CEI — score, which is overseen by the Human Rights Campaign, the largest LGBTQ+ political lobbying group in the world.

    HRC, which has received millions from George Soros’ Open Society Foundation among others, issues report cards for America’s biggest corporations via the CEI: awarding or subtracting points for how well companies adhere to what HRC calls its “rating criteria.”

    Businesses that attain the maximum 100 total points earn the coveted title “Best Place To Work For LGBTQ Equality.” Fifteen of the top 20 Fortune-ranked companies received 100% ratings last year, according to HRC data.

    More than 840 US companies racked up high CEI scores, according to the latest report.

    The HRC, which was formed in 1980 and started the CEI in 2002, is led by Kelley Robinson who was named as president in 2022 and worked as a political organizer for Barack Obama’s 2008 presidential campaign.

    The HRC lists five major rating criteria, each with its own lengthy subsets, for companies to gain — or lose — CEI points.

    The CEI is made up of several main scoring components.
    The main categories are: “Workforce Protections,” “Inclusive Benefits,” “Supporting an Inclusive Culture,” “Corporate Social Responsibility and Responsible Citizenship.”

    A company can lose CEI points if it doesn’t fulfill HRC’s demand for “integration of intersectionality in professional development, skills-based or other training” or if it doesn’t use a “supplier diversity program with demonstrated effort to include certified LGBTQ+ suppliers.”

    James Lindsay, a political podcaster who runs a site called New Discourses, told The Post that the Human Rights campaign administers the CEI ranking “like an extortion racket, like the Mafia.

    It doesn’t just sit back passively either. HRC sends representatives to corporations every year telling them what kind of stuff they have to make visible at the company. They give them a list of demands and if they don’t follow through there’s a threat that you won’t keep your CEI score.”

    The CEI is a lesser-known part of the burgeoning ESG (Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance) “ethical investing” movement increasingly pushed by the country’s top three investment firms. ESG funds invest in companies that oppose fossil fuels, push for unionization, and stress racial and gender equity over merit in hiring and board selection.

    As a result, some American CEOs are more concerned about pleasing BlackRock, Vanguard and State Street Bank — who are among the top shareholders of most American publicly-traded corporations (including Nike, Anheuser-Busch and Kate Spade) — than they are about irritating conservatives, numerous sources told The Post.

    This week, Mulvaney’s new ad campaigns with Bud Light and Nike ruffled the feathers of critics from country star Travis Tritt and Kid Rock — who tweeted a video of himself shooting cases of Bud Light — to female Olympians and even Caitlyn Jenner, who said of Nike: “It is a shame to see such an iconic American company go so woke! … This is an outrage.”

    Mulvaney, 26, who transitioned from male to female in the beginning of March 2021, has reportedly earned more than a million dollars from endorsements including fashion and beauty brands that also include Ulta Beauty, Haus Labs and CeraVe, as well as Crest and InstaCart.

    She’s also gained 10 million followers on TikTok.

    But neither Kid Rock nor even Mulvaney are who America’s top execs are trying to impress, experts say.

    “The big fund managers like BlackRock all embrace this ESG orthodoxy in how they apply pressure to top corporate management teams and boards and they determine, in many cases, executive compensation and bonuses and who gets re-elected or re-appointed to boards,” entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, who is running for president as a Republican and authored “Woke Inc.: Inside America’s Social Justice Scam,” told The Post. “They can make it very difficult for you if you don’t abide by their agendas.”

    In 2018, BlackRock CEO Larry Fink, who oversees assets worth $8.6 trillion and has been called the “face of ESG,” wrote a now-infamous letter to CEOs titled “A Sense of Purpose” that pushed a “new model of governance” in line with ESG values.

    “Society is demanding that companies, both public and private, serve a social purpose,” Fink wrote. “To prosper over time, every company must not only deliver financial performance, but also show how it makes a positive contribution to society.”

    Fink also let it be known “that if a company doesn’t engage with the community and have a sense of purpose “it will ultimately lose the license to operate from key stakeholders.”

    In December, Florida pulled $2 billion worth of state assets managed by BlackRock. “I think it’s undemocratic of major asset managers to use their power to influence societal outcomes,” Gov. Ron DeSantis said at the time.

    Fink has denied that ESG is political, but key staff managing his ESG operations worked in the Obama administration and donate to Sens. Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders.

    In his first veto, President Joe Biden last month rejected a GOP-backed bill that sought to block ESG investing — especially in pension funds where, critics say, American retirement funds will be sacrificed to a radical left-wing agenda.

    Protesters in Paris targeted BlackRock’s office there this week due to the company’s role in managing and privatizing pensions, which are at the heart of the French government’s recent retirement-age reforms.

    ESG and CEI proponents say that adhering to socially conscious values when investing and managing a company will make the world a better place. Not everyone agrees.

    Derek Kreifels is the co-founder and CEO of State Financial Officers Foundation, one of several financial officers fighting ESG on a national level.

    He calls ESG itself a “highly subjective political score infiltrating all walks of life, forcing progressive policies on everyday Americans [and] resulting in higher prices at the pump and at the store.”

    The Corporate Equality Index is an ominous cog in ESG’s wheel, Kreifels told The Post.

    “The problem with measures like CEI, and its big brother ESG, is that it introduces an incentive structure outside of the bounds of business, often in ways contradictory to fiduciary duty,” Kreifels said. “Whether Anheuser-Busch was trying to cash in on Dylan Mulvaney’s TikTok following or chasing higher CEI ratings for inclusivity, the backlash has been significant, and the stockholders to whom the company is obligated will feel the pinch.”

  26. Biden’s Digital Reelection Strategy: Deploy ‘Army of Influencers’ Who Will Have Their Own Briefing Room at White House
    By Cristina Laila Apr. 9, 2023 1:30 pm0 Comments

    Joe Biden has not announced his 2024 reelection bid yet, however his Soros-funded minions are already working to lock up his political opponent.

    Biden has no chance against Trump in a 2024 rematch since the cover of Covid is no longer an option.

    So he’s resorting to using radical left-wing prosecutors to blunt Trump’s campaign.

    Joe Biden is also apparently working on a digital strategy: An ‘army of influencers’ to tout Biden’s record (try not to laugh) in an effort to reach young voters.

    These ‘influencers’ will have their own briefing room at the White House.

    Joe Biden is so popular that he has to pay people to cheer him on online.

    Axios reported:

    President Biden’s not-yet-official bid for re-election will lean on hundreds of social media “influencers” who will tout Biden’s record — and soon may have their own briefing room at the White House, Axios has learned.

    Why it matters: The move aims to boost Biden’s standing among young voters who are crucial to Democrats’ success in elections — and to potentially counter former President Trump’s massive social media following, if he’s the GOP nominee in 2024.

    Biden’s digital strategy team will connect with influencers across the nation to target those who may not follow the White House or Democratic Party on social media — or who have tuned out mainstream media altogether.

    Four Biden digital staffers are focused on influencers and independent content creators. The staffers officially work for the White House, not Biden’s campaign — but reaching young and suburban voters is clearly a priority.

  27. Anthony Fauci Quietly Takes New Job as ‘Strategic Adviser’ at Italian Bio Lab

    The main proponent of U.S. COVID-19 lockdowns & vax mandates was “retired” last year, after much sycophantic and slobbering fanfare by corporate media fangirls.

    But, is the Chief Public Health(tm), like a CIA agent, ever really retired?

    What does the uneasy federal retiree do, aside from the $50k speaking fees and his pension as the highest-paid federal worker in history?

    Via ANSA (translated in original Italian), March 29, 2023

    Anthony Fauci, an immunologist, has agreed to serve informally as a strategic advisor to Rino Rappuoli, scientific Director of the Siena Biotechnopolo, which was established by the ministries for University, Health, Economy and Economic Development to dedicate applied research to biotechnology and other life sciences.

    Biotecnopolo, an Italian biolab, claims it is a cutting-edge facility for “anti-pandemic research” (translated from Italian).

    The Foundation’s mission is to encourage and promote applied research and innovation in biotechnology and life sciences. It also aims at fighting pandemics.

    It promotes and coordinates research, technical-scientific developments, technology transfer activities, and innovative processes in order to combat pandemics. Through the “National Anti-Pandemic Center-CNAP,” the Foundation serves as an anti-pandemic hub.

    It is not clear why Anthony Fauci would travel to Italy to continue his support for dangerous “antipandemic” research such as the one he funded at China’s Wuhan Institute of Virology through Ecohealth Alliance, his colleague.

    The United States has many bio labs around the world.

    We do know that Fauci and NIH have a history exporting dangerous research to countries that are otherwise illegal in the United States.

    The U.S. government prohibited gain-of function research in Chapel Hill (N.C.) in 2014 because it was too risky. Anthony Fauci, instead of abandoning the project, helped to export the operation by granting funds to the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

    As they say, the rest is history. The “novel coronavirus”, as it was then called, arrived in Wuhan in fall 2019 — coincidentally, according to Public Health(tm), adjacent to Fauci-funded gain of function research on coronavirus pathogenicity.

    What is the miscarriage in justice that Anthony Fauci was allowed to roam around the globe overseeing questionable “anti-pandemic” research (which likely means “gain-of function”) and possibly charging exorbitant fees?

    Why is Faucin’t he presently in the United States? To testify about the extent of his misconduct over his many decades as the highest-paid government employee and beyond, under penalty of perjury?

    Anthony Fauci accetta consulenza al Biotecnopolo Siena, Nobel Parisi plaude

    Il fisico italiano: “La sua disponibilità è un passo fondamentale per fare del centro un hub italiano per la ricerca, lo studio e la prevenzione delle pandemie”

    Anthony Stephen Fauci, tra i massimi esperti mondiali nel campo delle malattie infettive e consulente medico di 7 presidenti degli Stati Uniti – da Reagan a Biden – ha accettato di operare, in maniera informale, come consigliere strategico del professore Rino Rappuoli, direttore scientifico del Biotecnopolo di Siena. L’istituzione è stata fondata dai ministeri dell’Università e Ricerca, della Salute, dell’Economia e delle Imprese del Made in Italy con lo scopo di dedicarsi alla ricerca applicata nelle biotecnologie e nelle scienze della vita.

    “La disponibilità di Fauci a operare come consigliere informale – ha affermato on soddisfazione il premio Nobel Giorgio Parisi, componente del consiglio di amministrazione della Fondazione – è un passo fondamentale per fare del Biotecnopolo l’hub italiano per la ricerca, lo studio e la prevenzione delle pandemie”.

    Il Biotecnopolo è la concretizzazione del documento Preparazione alle pandemie e ruolo della scienza, elaborato dall’Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei e fatto proprio dalle Accademie del G20 nel 2021. “Fauci ha relazioni multidecennali con scienziati italiani. Queste relazioni – ha sottolineato Parisi – indicano quanto il valore e il rigore della scienza italiana siano riconosciute: costituiscono lo sprone più concreto per avviare, nel più breve tempo possibile, l’attività di un Centro che può rappresentare un riconoscimento globale dell’eccellenza della scienza italiana”.

    As is common in France and many other European countries, the French President’s office, known as the Elysée Palace, insisted on checking and “proofreading” all the president’s quotes to be published in this article as a condition of granting the interview.

    This violates POLITICO’s editorial standards and policy, but we agreed to the terms in order to speak directly with the French president.

    POLITICO insisted that it cannot deceive its readers and would not publish anything the president did not say.

    The quotes in this article were all actually said by the president, but some parts of the interview in which the president spoke even more frankly about Taiwan and Europe’s strategic autonomy were cut out by the Elysée.
