For all the screaming from the left about how Trump’s support is disappearing, the facts are a little bit different. Kevin Downey:

A Pew poll found a whopping 83% of Americans support deporting “all” or ” some” of the 10 million bundles of diversity Joe Biden allowed into our nation.Of those who want “some” of our replacements sent to the cornfield, 97% approved of deporting illegal immigrants who commit violent crimes, like the newest hero of the Democrats, Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a known member of MS-13, who his wife claims has beaten her, and even bragged he could kill her and get away with it.

Clearly, there’s a reason they don’t want you to know this or they’d have mentioned it themselves.

I saw one of my TDS friends crying about Harvard federal federal funding being shut off as well as visa being removed from people. Let’s explain it to them.

1) it has always been; if you want federal money, you play by federal rules. It doesn’t matter if you’re talking about roads, schools, welfare, housing assistance, etc…. if you want federal dollars you play by federal rules and if the federal government says stop teaching DEI, or that boys can be girls or give birth or any other nonsense, then you stop teaching that and you’ll get the monies. Harvard can continue teaching leftist nonsense all they want, they just won’t get federal monies. If you want monies for the roads, and the federal government says that you need a speed limit of 70 and turns at x° and that exits must match milage, etc then you do that or you don’t get federal monies. It’s not that hard of a concept.

2) Visa holders are guests of the country they are in. If the federal government says that the guest is not behaving in manners conducive to the interests of the country, then the government can remove your visa and once your visa is removed then you no longer have the right to continue to live in said country. Not a difficult concept either. It’s the exact same thing that if you invite someone into YOUR house, you have the right to kick someone out of your house if they are not acting in accordance with YOUR wishes.

3) these are not constitutional attacks, despite what the MSM tells you. These are enforcement of the constitution

This post is for you to place in the comments of any post alleging the arrest of Judge Hannah Dugan was illegal and without due process.

Attached is the criminal complaint signed by a federal judge that authorizes her arrest.

1 Admin warrants are for ICE and CBP. They authorize the legal arrest of the alleged criminal (in public locations such as stated in the criminal affidavit against Dugan) to be brought before an immigration judge. They are legal arrest warrants, she interfered with the arrest.

2 The judges signature on the complaint converts the agent’s affidavit into an official charging document and authorizes law -enforcement officers nationwide to seize the defendant

3

A federal judge found probable cause to arrest Dugan for breaking federal law, otherwise the judge would not have signed the complaint.

* The Constitution is Fine, It’s the Democrat Party That’s in Crisis.

* The Same Crowd That Doesn’t Call A Fetus A Baby Somehow Believes A Man In Heels Is A Woman!

* The same people who claim that JFK Jr is anti-science, are the ones who trusted Anthony Fauci.

* Amazing… After so many years of investigations, not a one of the accusers of Donald Trump have committed suicide. Kind of makes you wonder, doesn’t it?

By way of Ann Coulter, this showed up in my feed. It’s very well said, well enough that I had no choice but to share it.

I’m not Catholic but frankly I had my own problems with Francis, which I had mentioned more than once in these spaces.

Thing is as Gibson suggests, I’m not the final arbiter of those matters, nor is anyone in the church, Catholic or otherwise, or out of the church for that matter.

However, Gibson is also correct in what should be sought after in the next leader of the Catholic Church. Here is hoping, and praying.

Addendum:
These seems confusion on my comments, here. so let me expand a little. I will address herein, the secular portion of my concerns.

Look….
I don’t care if you’re catholic, or even Christian, for the purposes of this discussion. But in spite of all the self- inflicted wounds, I do suggest that the world…. yes, even the secular world…. needs a vibrant and traditional catholic church. That is exactly what we did NOT get with Francis, nor did he restrict himself to Christ’s teachings.  And that affects even the secular world.

Do we see anything good on the horizon from any other source? Is the world to turn to Islam for that good? Atheism? Any of the Pantheistic philosophies? I submit to you that none of these could have or would have allowed for an America to be created, nor can they support it.

I strongly suggest spending some time with Russell Kirk’s “Roots of American Order“(1974).
In that work, Kirk, who is as much as a philosopher of history as anything else, suggests that our Roots can be drawn directly to five different cities… Jerusalem, Athens, Rome, and London and Philly.
As Russell Kirk himself summarizes it, it is a story of five cities. Jerusalem for the revealed source of order … The concepts of the sacredness of Life, the sacredness of property, and so on– Athens for arts and science — Rome for government — London where these influences grew and coalesced — and of course Philadelphia.
Kirk looks at all of this and makes a the observation that…
“… the imprints of Athens, Rome, and London are still upon us. But the all-important endowment of Jerusalem has been tossed to the winds.”
Now, keep in mind this is 1974. We have progressed somewhat down the road since then.
Western philosophy has always had the Judeo-Christian mindset at the root of it. That mindset informed us of the value of the individual. That the rights of the individual are paramount because of that worth. It is the foundation of our very way of thinking in the West.
So what happens then, when Jerusalem and lessons that it teaches are rejected? Remember that the concepts of the rights of the individual came from the lessons that Humanity learned in Jerusalem. When you remove the foundation from a building, what happens to the building? I suggest to you that we are already seeing the results of that rejection.
Now before you start warming up about freedom from religion, keep in mind I’m not talking about establishing a theocracy here. That was never the design or the outcome in early America. Re-embracing the judeo- christian mindset, rather, to acknowledge that Jerusalem has in fact taught us some truths about the human condition and the purpose of our existence.
The end result of freedom from religion as it is currently promoted by some atheists is a Surefire way to eliminate the rights created by the moral order that Jerusalem gave us, because it eliminates the moral framework that informed us of those rights.
I’ve been saying this for years now…
Rights are a cultural construct, and meaningless outside that construct. As I said in the article linked above: Rights are not universal.
When Jefferson wrote that “WE HOLD THESE TRUTHS TO BE SELF-EVIDENT” he was not speaking a universal truth at all. The operative word in that phrase is “WE”.
Rather than talking about a universal point of view, a universal truth, if you will, he was instead talking about the point of view of WE the new American culture. With this angle, many of the long-held myths about rights tend to disappear.
Consider; if it was in fact a universal truth that all men were created equal, it wouldn’t have been such a radical idea, for the time, much less then to now. Last I checked, it is quite true that a vast majority still do not consider these as any kind of truth, universal or otherwise; they consider them to be anything BUT self-evident. Royalty still exists, as do class structures, and slavery, as well.
Again, I say…Jefferson was speaking of the point of view of OUR culture, not that of others.
The fact of the matter is that RIGHTS ARE A CULTURAL CONCEPT, and are nigh on meaningless outside that construct.
And so we come back to Jerusalem and the lessons that it taught.
As Insidious as the movement away from Jerusalem in the lessons it teaches is, it is in a larger sense an attack on our individual rights. If the judeo-christian ethic is the foundation of our ideas about individual rights what happens to those rights foundations of that philosophy is ripped away, and finally outlawed?
Like it or not, every great culture that’s come down history’s pike has had one religion or another at it’s philosophical center. As I’ve already stated, ours was rooted in the Judeo- Christian ethic. Our ideas, our concepts regarding the value and the supremacy of the individual, come from that ethic. (That is why, as an aside, I consider the constant attacks on the Jews to be so egregious. … it is directly in line with an effort to break the west away from is founding moral philosophy.)
Now perhaps you have a better idea of what is behind my comments on what we need to see in the next leader of the Catholic Church.

From David Harris:

“Bloodbath” at DOJ Civil Rights Division as Harmeet Dhillon cleans house — NBC News

-Career officials are melting down.

The Trump administration has forced out a majority of career managers and implemented new priorities.

-More than a dozen senior lawyers have been reassigned.

-Some have resigned in frustration after being moved to “less desirable roles unrelated to their expertise.”

-The division is now charged with pursuing priorities laid out in a series of Trump’s executive orders, including “Keeping Men out of Women’s Sports” and “Ending Radical Indoctrination in K-12 Schooling.”

-Dhillon’s memo outlines new priorities, including “Defending Women From Gender Ideology Extremism,” “Restoring Merit Based Opportunity” and “Designating English as the Official Language of the United States.”

-The “Eradicating Anti-Christian Bias” taskl force will be a focus. “The Biden administration engaged in an egregious pattern of targeting peaceful Christians while ignoring violent, anti-Christian offenses,” Pam Bondi said at a meeting of the new task force.

Wonderful news, all of it.

It appears that the Liberal party of Canada has succeeded in winning the national elections yesterday but not by much. I have the parliamentary seat totals but not the breakdowns, as yet. As such, my commentary will be ready limited for the moment.

Statistically speaking, the only two measurements that matter are the Liberal party and the Conservative party. The remainder are so small in number as to be inconsequential to policy issues in Parliament. None of the others come close to those two. So, here you are:

2024 2021

L. 167 160

C. 145 119

I caution you to treat these as preliminary numbers.

I include the 2021 results for perspective. Most of the conservative gains this time around, come from the smaller parties such as the PQ, the NDP, and the Greens who all lost substantial numbers.

(Hmmm…perhaps I should say Green, as opposed to the plural because there is only one seat held by the Green party as of this morning.)

Actually, it amazes me that the election was this close given the scandals governmental abuses, and just downright stupidity that have been in the news over the last few years, it seems the only way that the Liberals would have been tossed out of power would be if Justin Trudeau was discovered with a proverbial dead girl, or live boy in his bed. And possibly not even then.

Make no mistake… the majority of that factor comes from the provinces of Ontario and Quebec. It’s my thought that the rest of Canada will pay the price.

What I do not have, in terms of data is the provincial breakdowns and I am quite interested in seeing what the numbers look like west of the province of Ontario. Those numbers, I think,will bear very heavily on Canada’s future.

(Note the Monty Python reference in the headline)

* So, the people who bypassed the legal process when migrating to the USA are now demanding a legal process before being kicked out.

* 3,920,028 illegals were given Social Security and Medicaid Hunter Joe Biden.. Assuming each one of them was receiving $2k/mo that’s $1,931,281,856 EVERY MONTH. Tell me again, who it is that’s collapsing social security.

*We shouldn’t bother outlawing abortions because they’re going to happen anyway, but outlawing guns is going to make us safe?

* It’s interesting that for all the screaming about “due process” for illegal aliens, we didn’t see any of that concern expressed about j6 protesters.

* The Party that arrested a President for fake crimes is now crying about a Judge that was Arrested for Real Crimes.

* Funny how the cries of “nobody is above the law” have faded away.

* So Hannah Dugan figured that Trump must be stopped and she abused her bench to do that. After all, orange man bad. The irony here is that she’ll be wearing orange for the foreseeable future.

Official mugshot of Judge Hannah Dugan, the judge that tried to help an illegal, alien criminal evade ICE.

This judge was also in charge of Catholic Charities, their revenue increased 400% while 100’s of 1000’s of children went missing…

Arrested, USDA Inspector Phyllis Fong, a 22-year Deep State operative, is one of the key players behind the artificial inflation of poultry and egg prices in the U.S.

She ordered the culling of MILLIONS of healthy birds, using the FAKE excuse of “mutating bird flu.” But here’s the TRUTH: There was NO pandemic.

Fong personally ordered mass bird exterminations in 2024, targeting farms in Colorado, Ohio, Arizona, Louisiana, and Nebraska. One case in Louisiana set the stage: a man (who DID NOT WORK on a poultry farm) was allegedly diagnosed with H5N1 after “finding dead birds” in his yard. The CDC then INVENTED a panic story, claiming 66 people were infected. Sources say that number is ENTIRELY FABRICATED.

Before the media even blasted this FAKE OUTBREAK, Fong and Biden’s corrupt FDA sent teams of inspectors in full hazmat suits to Nebraska, ordering the instant killing of 600,000 birds. The farm owner—who recently tested his flock and found ZERO SIGNS of bird flu—REFUSED. But it didn’t matter. Fong had already signed off on the order, threatening him with $4 BILLION in fines and PRISON TIME if he didn’t comply.

She thought she was untouchable. When Trump began cleansing the Deep State in January, she REFUSED TO LEAVE, publicly claiming Trump had “no authority” over “federal watchdogs.”

The next day, KARMA STRUCK. Security FORCED HER OUT, delivering her straight to JAG investigators.
