Nevada Hit With GOP Lawsuit Over ‘Impossibly High’ Voter Registration

State Official Faces Lawsuit From GOP Over ‘Impossibly High’ Voter Registration

BY: Daily Caller, March 19, 2024;

Story continues below advertisement

The Republican National Committee (RNC) slapped Nevada Secretary of State Cisco Aguliar with a lawsuit on Friday, alleging that the state has “impossibly high” voter registration rolls.

The lawsuit alleges that the state of Nevada is failing to maintain the requirements of the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) which mandates that voter rolls must keep “clean and accurate voter registration records.” The RNC is alleging that according to their analysis, five of Nevada’s 17 counties have inflated voter rolls which they say indicates a violation of the NVRA, the lawsuit claims.

“Election integrity starts with clean voter rolls, and that’s why the National Voter Registration Act requires state officials to keep their rolls accurate and up-to-date,” RNC Co-Chair Michael Whatley wrote in a Monday press release. “Nevada has universal mail voting and no voter ID requirement, which makes Secretary of State Cisco Aguilar’s failure to comply with the NVRA and provide accurate voter rolls all the more concerning. Securing clean voter rolls in Nevada is a critical step towards ensuring that it will be easy to vote and hard to cheat.”

“At least three Nevada counties have more registered voters than they have adult citizens who are over the age of 18,” the lawsuit alleges. “That number of voters is impossibly high.”

The lawsuit alleges that two counties in Nevada have active voter registration rates that surpass 90% of adult citizens over the age of 18. That number, the RNC alleges in its lawsuit, “far eclipses” the voter registration rate nationwide and at the state-level in elections recently…

‘That’s A Blatant Lie’: Tony Bobulinski Snaps At Dem Rep Who Says ‘No Evidence’ Of Biden ‘Wrongdoing’

Hunter Biden’s ex-business partner Tony Bobulinski snapped back at Democratic Rep. Robert Garcia of California Wednesday after he asserted there is “no evidence” President Joe Biden did anything wrong.

Bobulinski claimed President Biden was the “brand” being sold in Hunter and his business dealings in his testimony to the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability. However, Garcia said Bobulinski did not offer a shred of evidence the president did anything improper at the hearing titled, “Influence Peddling: Examining Joe Biden’s Abuse of Public Office.”

WATCH:

“I just want to, for the record, be very clear that during Mr. Bobulinski’s testimony he has provided zero evidence, zero evidence of any sort of link between Hunter Biden and the president, as far as it relates to the business dealings,” Garcia said. “And so once again we’re back to a hearing where no evidence is being provided of any sort of wrongdoing by the present.”

“That’s a blatant lie,” Bobulinski retorted.

“Actually it’s my time, sir,” Garcia said, cutting Bobulinski off.

Garcia then accused Bobulinski of previously giving a “false answer” regarding who invited him to a presidential debate between Biden and former President Donald Trump.

“I actually don’t recall whose guest I was, but I attended the debate,” Bobulinski said during February testimony.

The two repeatedly clashed over the issue during Garcia’s five minutes of questioning. Garcia called into question Bobulinski’s assertion that he is not political while the businessman said his lawyers coordinated his events for him.

Bobulinski told Garcia it was “obvious” he was Trump’s guest.

“At that point I was trying to get the truth and the facts out to the American people at that moment in time,” Bobulinski told Garcia. “If I recall, I believe 80 million people watched that debate.”

Garcia called Bobulinski an “uncredible witness” to conclude his five minutes.

Bobulinski worked with Hunter prior to becoming a whistleblower. He told Congress in February that China successfully attempted to “infiltrate and compromise” Joe Biden and President Barack Obama’s White House.

Posters By Al-Qaeda Supporter Call On Muslims To Kill Jews, Americans, Britons Worldwide In Support Of Islam

In recent days, Sandar Al-Ghafiqi, a prolific Al-Qaeda supporter, published two posters inciting Muslims around the world to jihad. This report reviews the posters.

Call For Jihad To Resist Harm Of Muslims In Gaza, Europe, Sudan

On March 8, Al-Ghafiqi published[1] a poster in Arabic on the Al-Qaeda-operated Rocket.Chat server, titled “Who [Will Come] to [Support] the Wounds of Islam?“, calling on Muslims to support Islam with jihad in light of the difficult situation of Muslims in various places around the world.

Among the places mentioned are Gaza, where Al-Ghafiqi alleges residents are being “exterminated” by Jews, shelled by their aircraft, and starved; Europe—referred to as the “land of Ibn Tashfin,” alluding to the fourth leader of the Almoravid dynasty, who ruled Al-Andalus [Spain] in the 11th century—where Muslim children, women, and the elderly are being killed and robbed because of their faith by “hateful Crusaders”; and Sudan, where Al-Ghafiqi claims Muslim women are harmed and their honor violated with impunity. Referring to these events, he asserts that “conscience and hearts no longer exist.”

The poster concludes: “Hurry up, O sons of Islam, as the matter is serious and severe. How can you live in peace while Muslim blood is shed in every tract of land? Islam will not achieve a relief nor a victory without jihad; you will only be humiliated and degraded if you abandon the sword of truth.”

Killing Jews, Americans, Britons Brings Muslims Closer To Allah; War In Gaza Will Be Followed By ‘Decisive Battles’ Foreseen By Prophet Muhammad

On March 19, Al-Ghafiqi published[2] a poster in Arabic titled “Implement the Commandment and Fulfill the Commitment,” calling on Muslims around the world to kill Jews, Americans, and Britons.

Addressing Muslims “everywhere,” including “the West and the East, Muslim and non-Muslim countries,” the poster urges the killing of every Jew, American, and Briton they encounter, as only this “blessed act” will “deter” them. It asserts: “By their blood, you get closer to Allah Almighty.”

The poster further urges Muslims to prepare for future “decisive battles.” It warns that “Al-Aqsa Flood” [Hamas’ name of the war in Gaza] will be followed by additional battles, and calls on readers to prepare for the “greatest epic battle” mentioned by the Prophet Muhammad, and retain readiness to protect Islam and “its people.”

Claiming that the ummah [Islamic nation] is “occupied” and “controlled,” the writer stresses that Muslims must revolt, fight for the sake of Allah, and stop “wandering.” This applies not only to the mujahideen of Al-Qaeda and other groups, he emphasizes, but to every Muslim.

Al-Ghafiqi concludes: “We must feel what our Muslim brothers in Gaza, Palestine, and everywhere are experiencing, and we must rise up to stop this injustice and abuse of the servants of Allah and our Muslim brothers everywhere.”

Alongside the text, a photo of Khalid Batarfi, deceased leader of Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), is displayed. Batarfi’s death was announced in a March 10 official AQAP video,[3] without specifying its circumstances.

Since the beginning of the ongoing Israel-Hamas war, Al-Ghafiqi has published multiple posters, essays and even a video clip inciting Muslims to jihad against Jews and their allies worldwide.[4]

As the Border Crisis Intensifies, Almost 70% Link Migrants to Violent Crime

This week, Jason Riley, father of 22-year-old nursing student Laken Riley who was brutally killed, joined NBC News in a heartfelt interview claiming that his daughter was “like an angel” and “so full of life.”

When discussing his daughter’s murderer, a Venezuelan migrant who entered the U.S. illegally in 2022, Riley told the interviewer that he might not have been in the U.S. “had we had secure borders,” in the first place. The grieving father went on to share that he feels like his daughter is “being used somewhat politically,” especially after Joe Biden’s State of the Union, when he erroneously referred to her as “Lincoln Riley.”

Riley’s interview came shortly after Laken’s mother, Allyson Phillips, wrote a Facebook post addressing the “most devastating, unimaginable loss” of her daughter. Despite her sorrow, Phillips attributed her strength to the Lord. “I would like to thank my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, for being with me and my family during this heartbreaking time,” she said. “I encourage everyone to have a personal relationship with Jesus. I give Him all the glory for getting us through this.”

In the bleak weeks following Laken’s death, lawlessness from illegal immigrants has soared in the U.S., leading almost 70% of people to believe that the open borders “may contribute to the violence crime in America.” The Rasmussen poll, interestingly, found that 64% of white people are concerned about the crime committed by illegals, while among black people, 73% are worried. “And why wouldn’t they be?” Breitbart’s John Nolte asks. “[They] disproportionately live in Democrat-run cities that posture as sanctuary cities.”

Even a majority of Democrats — 51% — think there’s a connection between our border crisis and crime (compared to 84% of Republicans. “When asked if illegal immigration makes America better or worse, only 14% said better.”

And the evidence seems to be everywhere. While Riley’s murder continues to circle the news, the leader of a human trafficking ring has also been sentenced to prison for sneaking over 1,000 migrants across the southern border and then dropping them off in Phoenix, Arizona. The consequence of Martin Garcia-Velazquez’s furtive actions is 7.5-years in prison, followed by 35 months of supervised release. The Mexican native was also mandated to pay a special assessment of $5,000 by U.S. District Judge Scott Rash.

The investigation, conducted by Homeland Security, found that Garcia-Velazquez had three co-conspirators, all prosecuted in October. In a statement issued by the Department of Justice, it notes that the prosecution was an Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces (OCDETF) investigation, which “identifies, disrupts, and dismantles the highest-level drug traffickers, money launderers, gangs, and transnational criminal organizations that threaten the United States.”

Another tragedy making headlines involves a 26-year-old Haitian native, Cory Alvarez, who reportedly raped a disabled 15-year-old girl last week at a hotel housing migrants. Amidst the current chaos in Haiti, Alvarez was flown into New York City last summer by President Biden’s CHNV parole program. The program, established in October of 2022, authorizes 30,000 people each month from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela, “to fly into the U.S. and be granted two years of humanitarian parole, which allows them to apply to work in the U.S.”

While Alvarez might have entered the U.S. lawfully, conservative leaders have criticized the current administration for their loose hold on immigration. “Biden flew this illegal dirtbag into our Country. No border, no budget. Shut it down,” tweeted Tennessee Representative Tim Burchett.

As millions of illegal immigrants flood the U.S. southern border and thousands fly over it, reports suggest that the Biden administration has financed the whole operation.

“According to Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) findings by the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS), U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) put hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants on planes and flew them into 43 different U.S. airports last year alone,” wrote The Washington Stand’s S.A McCarthy.

This administration’s choices regarding the border, economy, and foreign affairs are unfavorable, as only 39.8% of Americans approve of Biden’s job as president. The president’s low rating for his third year in office claimed the title of second worst. “Among prior presidents in the Gallup polling era who were elected to their first term, only Jimmy Carter fared worse in his third year.” Carter’s 37.4% rating was primarily attributed to high gas prices, rising inflation, and because U.S. citizens were taken hostage by Iran. Experts argue that President Biden’s low rating can be attributed to the flood of illegal aliens allowed into the U.S. under the current administration.

The Vice President Visits an Abortion Clinic—And the People Yawn?

For more than 50 years, the left has promoted abortion in America. But last week we saw something new in this battle. For the first time ever, a vice-president actually visited a facility where unborn babies are systematically killed when Kamala Harris toured a Planned Parenthood abortion facility in St. Paul, Minnesota.

She called laws restricting abortion in other states “immoral.” She also said that abortion and religious commitment were compatible, not incompatible: “One does not have to abandon their faith or deeply held beliefs to agree that the government should not be telling women what to do with their body.”

The left, including Harris, call abortion “healthcare for women.” Healthcare? Healthcare is about healing, not taking life. These are not blobs of tissue. These are preborn babies.

A number of pro-life leaders spoke out following Harris’s visit to Planned Parenthood:

  • Gary Bauer, founding president of Our American Values, had a headline on this story in his “End of Day Report” (3/4/24): “Hide Your Babies—the Vice President Is In Town.” Bauer wrote: “Politicians of both parties have long tried to show how loving they are by kissing the babies handed to them by proud parents on the campaign trail. Biden and Harris prefer going to places where babies go to die.”
  • Susan B. Anthony (SBA) Pro-Life America’s president, Marjorie Dannenfelser, said: “Kamala Harris has spent her whole career in the pocket of Big Abortion. When brave citizen journalists exposed Planned Parenthood’s selling of baby body parts, then-Attorney General Harris prosecuted the whistleblowers. The corruption continues as the Biden-Harris DOJ throws nonviolent pro-life activists in prison.”

And Dannenfelser added, “Nearly 70% of women who’ve had an abortion say it was unwanted, coerced or inconsistent with their own values and preferences.”

  • Eric Scheidler, the executive director of the Pro-Life Action League, told me: “Sadly, I can’t think of a more appropriate place for Kamala Harris to appear than an abortion facility. The Biden-Harris administration is devoted to aborting every unborn child they can — especially the children of the poor. Harris seems to take offense at the idea that a poor woman might embrace her right to motherhood. She couldn’t care less that most of those mothers turn to abortion only in desperation, not as a free ‘choice.’ That’s why faithful Christians need to show up at abortion centers themselves, to offer compassionate help to the mothers Harris won’t listen to and to mourn for the precious children Harris has turned her back on.”
  • Father Frank Pavone, the founding president of Priests for Life, sent me this response to VP Harris’ visit: “First of all, the pro-life side is doing better at showing solidarity with their base. Years ago, under the Trump Administration, the VP [Mike Pence] visited a pregnancy center. Secondly, VP Harris didn’t get the full experience at Planned Parenthood. Did they show her the forceps that rip the baby’s arms and legs off? Better yet, did they show her the arms and legs that have to be reassembled in the tray? Did they even describe the abortion procedure to her? The Democrats are pretending. If they want to bring abortion forward as an election issue, then talk about abortion and show voters what it is. It’s actually the last thing they want to do.”
  • Jim Harden, the CEO of a Buffalo-area crisis pregnancy center that was firebombed in 2022, emailed me this response: “Receiving $1.8 Billion in federal funding over the last three years demonstrates Planned Parenthood is a de facto government agency. And given the Biden/Harris campaign plans to get re-elected on abortion it only makes sense she would visit the largest abortion business on the planet, perpetrating over 40% of all abortions in the U.S.”

I believe that anyone who supports abortion rights should at least be knowledgeable about how abortions are actually performed, including in the first trimester. It’s a bloody mess.

As to later abortions, actor Kevin Sorbo (“God’s Not Dead”) has voiced a 5-minute video explaining what actually happens in those type of procedures.

The video is called, “The Procedure.” It’s unconscionable that people celebrate these things. The video is only graphic in its descriptions, not images. Yet it is hard to realize this is what people on the left not only push, but celebrate.

Life is a gift. When the founders wrote our nation’s birth certificate, the Declaration of Independence, they said the Creator has endowed us with certain inalienable rights and among these are the right to life. For more than half a century, abortion has been at war the right to life in America.

The presidency and vice-presidency are bully pulpits. Too bad they use their powerful influence to promote death, not life.

Biden’s Marxist Economy Emulates Communist Cuba’s

The citizens of Cuba live under the total dependency of their installed Communist government.

The installed Marxist in the White House Joe Biden emulates the Cuban and Venezuelan economies with his copy cat plans.

Biden’s policies have placed the same pressures on the American economy in lockstep with Cuban citizens who are also feeling the consequences of a government controlled economy.

Inflation is crushing the backs of the Cuban people and they lack basic food like bread which is running out. Inflation is also crushing the American middle class.

The Communist Cuban government also control electricity which is the poster child of a future generation of Americans if we continue to allow this Communist madness to continue in our own country.

California and New York are well on their way to being ran by dictators with their economies mirroring that of Cuba and Venezuela. Electricity in California will eventually be under government control.

Natural gas is banned from new construction projects in New York exemplifying the Communist commitment to control your energy needs much like in Cuba and Venezuela.

Beatriz Johnson is the handpicked Communist who heads the Communist Party in Santiago de Cuba.

She had to climb onto a roof of a government owned house on Sunday March 17th 2024 to calm down hundreds of angry Cubans who were screaming for electricity and food.

The Cuban people are sick and tired of Communism as are the citizens of California and New York.

500,000 Cubans fled their homeland for the United States and many also fled to Colombia, Peru, Brazil etc.

Californians and New Yorkers are leaving their states too in droves abandoning these Communist ran enclaves which is collapsing the California middle class dream. California’s loss is a gain for Florida, Nevada, Texas etc.

The Communist government in Cuba interfered with wages by controlling how much Cubans could make much like government interference in the United States that is forcing $15-20 an hour minimum wage for unskilled labor. This drives inflation creating $20 Big Macs.

The solution to overcome poverty is capitalism, hard work, sweat equity and saving money for a better future for your children. The President of Argentina just made this same statement.

Don’t look for a government controlled economy advocated by Communists like Maduro in Venezuela, Biden and Bernie Sanders in the USA to help you.

Seek freedom under capitalism and free markets and move the useless government out of the way. Vote Trump in November 2024.

Hunter Biden Ex-Business Partners To Go Scorched Earth On Bidens, House Democrats In Testimony

Several of Hunter Biden’s ex-business partners are planning to go scorched earth on the first son and his father, President Joe Biden and House Democrats during a congressional hearing on Wednesday, according to opening statements obtained by the Daily Caller.

As a part of the the House Oversight and Accountability committee’s investigation into President Biden’s potential involvement into Hunter’s foreign business, Tony Bobulinski and Jason Galanis will appear for a testimony on Tuesday. Bobulinski blasted those who have criticized his character through his testimonials and Galanis detailed the value the Biden name brought to business deals, according to opening statements obtained by the Daily Caller.

“The Biden defenders’ outrageous dishonesty and vile attempts at assassinating my character are as predictable as they are disgusting,” Bobulinski wrote. “As a former Naval officer, I do not understand this world of partisan outrage and insanity; I struggle to process it, and I despise it.”

Bobulinski went on to detail his previous business career and military experience while stressing the importance of the hearing for the American people, the opening statement says. Hunter Biden’s former business partner claimed President Biden was the “brand” being sold, the testimony says.

“I want to be crystal clear: from my direct personal experience and what I have subsequently come to learn, it is clear to me that Joe Biden was ‘the Brand’ being sold by the Biden family,” Bobulinski added. “His family’s foreign influence peddling operation — from China to Ukraine and elsewhere — sold out to foreign actors who were seeking to gain influence and access to Joe Biden and the United States government.”

Galanis, who is currently in federal prison on unrelated fraud charges, echoed Bobulinski’s remarks, detailing the value he thought then Vice-President Joe Biden brought to the business world, the opening statement says.

“The entire value-add of Hunter Biden to our business was his family name and his access to his father, Vice President Joe Biden. Because of this access, I agreed to contribute equity ownership to them — Hunter and Devon — for no out-of-pocket cost from them in exchange for their ‘relationship capital,’” Galanis said in an opening statement.

Hunter Biden was also invited to the Wednesday hearing, though he turned down the opportunity despite previously asking for a public testimony. The first son originally testified in front of Congress in a closed-door deposition.

The first son was originally subpoenaed by the House Oversight Committee in November in an effort to get Hunter Biden to appear at a closed-door deposition so he could be interrogated on his foreign business dealings. Rather than attending the briefing, Hunter Biden marched to the Capitol and held a press conference outside of the building on Dec. 13, the day of the scheduled closed-door deposition. 

During his press conference, the first son noted that he would testify publicly, an offer his lawyer previously made the committee. Hunter Biden went on to blast Republicans for bringing an impeachment inquiry against his father while denying that President Biden was ever involved in his business dealings. 

When turning down the committee’s invitation for a public hearing, David Lowell, Hunter Biden’s lawyer, called it a “blatant planned-for-media event.”

“Your blatant planned-for-media event is not a proper proceeding but an obvious attempt to throw a Hail Mary pass after the game has ended. Let me remind you of a statement you made about how witnesses—and specifically Mr. Biden—could satisfy your prior requests,” Lowell wrote in the letter obtained by the Daily Caller.

“At your press conference after the January 10, 2024, Committee hearing to hold Mr. Biden in contempt, you stated: ‘All we need are people to come in for the depositions and then we’ll be finished. We just need people to show up to the depositions and we’ll wrap this up. Nobody wants to wrap this up more than I do.’ Mr. Biden did just as you asked and, as you did when you announced that witnesses could choose depositions, you want to ignore what you said,” Lowell continued.

During his closed-door deposition, Hunter Biden frequently stated, at least 29 times, that he “did not recall” certain details about his foreign business dealings. What the the first son could recall was one key detail: that his father was not involved.

“I am here today to provide the committees with the one uncontestable fact that should end the false premise of this inquiry: I did not involve my father in my business, not while I was a practicing lawyer, not in my investments or transactions, domestic or international, not as a board member, and not as an artist, never,” Hunter Biden said in his opening remarks during his testimony.

SCOTUS Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson Actually Argues That First Amendment is Getting in The Way of Government Censoring Speech

“My biggest concern is that your view has the First Amendment hamstringing the government in significant ways.” — Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.” — First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America.


That is, quite literally, the very point of the Constitutional amendment.

DEI on the Supreme Court. Not qualified, not smart.

The First amendment is not obtuse, nuanced or complicated.

She’s a moron.

Ketanji Brown Jackson ‘concerned’ First Amendment is ‘hamstringing’ government from censorship

By: Annabella Rosciglione, Washington Examiner, March 18, 2024:

Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson raised concerns that the First Amendment may stand in the way of government censorship in unique times.

In Monday’s oral arguments for Murthy v. Missouri, Jackson appeared to be skeptical that the government could not censor social media posts in “the most important time periods.”

“My biggest concern is that your view has the First Amendment hamstringing the government in significant ways in the most important time periods,” Jackson said to Louisiana Solicitor General Benjamin Aguiñaga.

“You seem to be suggesting that that duty cannot manifest itself in the government encouraging or even pressuring platforms to take down harmful information,” Jackson said. “So, can you help me? Because I’m really worried about that because you’ve got the First Amendment operating in an environment of threatening circumstances, from the government’s perspective, and you’re saying that the government can’t interact with the source of those problems.”

Aguiñaga said his view was that the government should intervene in certain situations, but it has to do so by following the First Amendment.

“Our position is not that the government can’t interact with the platforms there. They can and they should in certain circumstances like that, that present such dangerous issues for society and especially young people,” Aguiñaga said in response. “But the way they do that has to be in compliance with the First Amendment. And I think that means they can give them all the true information that the platform needs and ask to amplify that.”

Jackson said a “once-in-a-lifetime pandemic” or other emergencies would provide grounds for the government to censor social media posts that are misinformative.

“I’m interested in your view that the context doesn’t change the First Amendment principles,” she said. “I understood our First Amendment jurisprudence to require heightened scrutiny of government restrictions of speech, but not necessarily a total prohibition when you’re talking about a compelling interest of the government to ensure, for example, that the public has accurate information in the context of a once-in-a-lifetime pandemic.”

Washington Supreme Court Rules That Bar Exam No Longer A Requirement Because It’s Too Hard For People of Color

“I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.” — Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.


The Supreme Court of the State of Washington has ruled that prospective lawyers will no longer be required to pass a bar exam to practice in the state.

The decision was reportedly made because the bar exam was too difficult for “examinees of color.”

Hardcore racist policy. Washington Supreme Court is actually saying people of color are too dumb?

The high bigotry of low expectations.

Who would want a lawyer who couldn’t pass the bar whatever race, creed or colour?

Washington Supreme Court Rules That Bar Exam No Longer A Requirement To Practice Law, Cites Impact On “Marginalized Groups”

By: Natasha Biase, The Publica, March 18, 2024

The Washington State Supreme Court has ruled that the bar exam is no longer a requirement for prospective lawyers. On Friday, The Bar Licensure Task Force explained that the bar is “minimally effective for ensuring competency” and “disproportionally and unnecessarily blocks marginalized groups from becoming practicing attorneys.”

According to The Spokesman-Review, after appointing the task force in 2020 to assess “disproportionate impacts on examinees of color and first-generation examinees,” the courts agreed to substitute the exam with “experiential-learning alternatives.”

The task force was made up of over 50 groups of representatives and “examined the character and fitness process for lawyer licensure.”

Although students have historically interned under another lawyer before becoming attorneys, they still had to pass the bar to get their license to practice. Under the new guidelines, lawyers can forgo the bar, first administered in Delaware in 1783, by participating in a six-month apprenticeship and finishing three courses.

Additionally, students must complete a minimum of three hours of legal work per week and 12 skills credits as licensed legal interns, garnering up to 500 hours of law experience before graduation to complete their portfolios.

The eligibility to become a licensed law practitioner will also extend to law clerks even if they haven’t finished law school by completing 500 hours of work as a licensed legal intern and “completing standardized educational materials and benchmarks under the guidance of a mentoring attorney.”

BRAVO: Trump Sues ABC News, George Stephanopoulos for Defamation

“These statements were and remain false, and were made by Defendant Stephanopoulos with actual malice or with a reckless disregard for the truth…”

Enough with their evil bullshit.

Trump sues ABC News, George Stephanopoulos for defamation

Stephanopoulos said the former president was found liable for rape several times

Story continues below advertisement

By: Hanna Panreck, Brian Flood, Fox News, March 19, 2024:

Presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump is suing ABC News and George Stephanopoulos for defamation after the ABC News host said several times on air that the former president was “found liable for rape” during a heated March 10 interview with Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C.

Mace, a rape survivor, says she felt personally attacked when Stephanopoulos, a former top aide to President Bill Clinton, asked how she could support Trump’s White House bid. Stephanopoulos said Trump was found “liable for rape” 10 times during the exchange.

A federal jury in New York decided that Trump was not liable for rape but was liable for sexual abuse and defamation in the 2023 civil trial of advice columnist E. Jean Carroll vs. Trump. The former president has called the verdict a “disgrace,” and denied all wrongdoing.

The lawsuit, filed Monday in Florida, claims Stephanopoulos’ statements are “false” and were made with “actual malice or with a reckless disregard for the truth given that Defendant Stephanopoulos knows these statements are patently and demonstrably false.” The court document then noted that a jury “expressly found that Plantiff did not commit rape.”

The suit notes that Trump representatives contacted ABC seeking a retraction following the interview, but the Disney-owned news outlet failed to apologize or correct the record.

“Since making such false, malicious, and defamatory statements, many news and press outlets have continued to quote Stephanopoulos by wrongfully broadcasting that Plaintiff was found liable for rape,” Trump’s lawyers wrote.

Trump’s team has requested a jury trial.

Obama Appointed Judge Rules Illegals Can Carry Guns

The Democrat war on Americans escalates.

Apparently their gun control mania only applies to law abiding American citizens.

Illegal Immigrant Can Carry Guns: Federal Judge

By: Epoch Times, March 19, 2024:

An illegal immigrant was wrongly banned from possessing guns, according to a recent ruling.

A federal law, Section 922 of Title 18 of the U.S. Code, bars illegal immigrants from carrying guns or ammunition. Prosecutors charged Heriberto Carbajal-Flores, the illegal alien, in 2020 after he was found in Chicago carrying a semi-automatic pistol despite “knowing he was an alien illegally and unlawfully in the United States.”

U.S. District Judge Sharon Johnson Coleman rejected two motions to dismiss, but the third motion, based on a 2022 U.S. Supreme Court ruling, triggered the dismissal of the case on March 8.

“The noncitizen possession statute, 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(5), violates the Second Amendment as applied to Carbajal-Flores,” Judge Coleman, appointed under President Barack Obama, wrote in her 8-page ruling. “Thus, the court grants Carbajal-Flores’ motion to dismiss.”

Lawyers for Mr. Carbajal-Flores had argued in the most recent motion to dismiss that the government could not show that the law in question was “part of the historical tradition that delimits the outer bounds of the right to keep and bear arms.”

In 2022, the Supreme Court determined that the U.S. Constitution’s Second Amendment “presumptively protects” conduct that is covered by the amendment’s “plain text.”

How Very Fitting: Satan Endorses the Palestinian Cause

When Satan endorses your cause, you just might not have the moral high ground, but it is certain that no lessons have been learned from a recent imbroglio in Phoenix. A drag performer who calls herself (that’s the pronoun in the news stories, but you never know what it might mean these days; she does, however, appear to be female in her video about this event) “Daddy Satan” was set to be the featured performer at a “Drag Show for Palestine” in Phoenix on Saturday evening, but this gala display of unintentionally revealing virtue-signaling was canceled after a “backlash.” Why, that’s staggering. Who could possibly have objected to such a splendid display of leftist lunacy?

CBS 12 in Phoenix reported Monday that the sad news of the cancellation came from “Daddy Satan” herself. Ms. Satan, who says she is a “‘Proud Biracial, Pansexual, Chameleon’ Drag Demon,” had been scheduled to perform at an event that would also have featured the cutting-edge cultural trailblazers and stunning and brave drag queens “Pissunderstood” and “Jacon The Box.” This celebration of depravity, perversion and insanity was going to kick off at six PM on Saturday at Palabras Bilingual Bookstore in Phoenix, and was billed as a “night of Drag and Community as we gather at Palabras Book Store in solidarity with Palestine.”

Alas, the voices of what the left calls hatred, heteronormativity and racism, that is, the voices of common sense and sanity, spoiled the party. Satan first thanked everyone who had been involved in the event and then dived into full-throttle victimhood mode: “To everyone facing bullying as a result I am so so very sorry! My intentions were to raise awareness, bring joy to activists, and express our grief/anger/and hopes within community. And I never intended for anyone to get caught in the crossfires of hate, especially @palabras_bookstore – I can’t thank them enough for all they’ve done and I’m so sorry for the way people are throwing hate towards them.”

Ms. Satan went on to tell address those whom she called “my lovely Drag entertainers,” saying: “you were meant to help people process this terrible time in history and give us hope and joy so that we may all join in on and continue the fight for Justice. You all don’t deserve the hate that has come about and for that I am truly sorry.” What “hate” did Daddy Satan and her cohorts actually receive? She doesn’t mention anything actually illegal, such as threats. It seems that all they got was some pushback about how insane the event really was.

Satan addressed that “hate” forthrightly: “A majority of the comments were the same,” she said. “A lot of them were ‘why don’t you try this drag show in Palestine and see what they think of you?’ I don’t need to go to another country to see how they may treat queers. The way they treat queer people in America is terrifying enough.” Responding to people who were apparently telling her that the prevailing religion in “Palestine” wouldn’t exactly welcome her and her ilk, she insisted magnanimously that “anyone can have a different belief system than me. People can even hate queers all they want – but I will never condone genocide just because someone is different. And that is why I will continue on to the next big thing. A FREE PALESTINE MEANS A FREE WORLD.”

Well, that’s swell. But it’s not just that the Gazans “have a different belief system.” Islam mandates death for homosexuality, in accord with the command of Muhammad: “Whoever you find doing the action of the people of Lot, execute the one who does it and the one to whom it is done” (Sunan Abu Dawud 4462). Recently a Muslim cleric in Britain said that Allah had not granted victory to the Palestinians because there were too many homosexuals at pro-Palestinian rallies in the West.

In light of that, Ms. Satan’s Drag Show for Palestine was not only wrongheaded; it was downright stupid, as is the organization “Queers for Palestine.” It was, however, refreshingly forthright that a drag performer calling herself “Daddy Satan” would come out so strongly for the Palestinian cause. After all, those who are calling for a ceasefire today are calling for Hamas to survive, and if Hamas survives, there will be many more massacres of Israelis on the order of the savagery we saw on Oct. 7. Satan endorses Palestine? How very fitting.

REPORT: Biden Regime Providing Interest Free Loans to Illegals Aliens to Travel to America

A reader sent us an email with a link to a Law Enforcement Today article by: Noah Webster.

DL wrote in the email, “Not just interest-free; there is no penalty if they don’t pay them back. According to the article, free money for mortgages, too. We should all leave the country and come back illegally. But ‘We The People”‘ would probably be tossed in jail. In the comments section of the article, people are demanding we detach from the UN over this.”


Biden regime in cahoots with UN in providing interest free loans to illegals to travel to the US

WASHINGTON, DC- Despite the ridiculous border situation, The Liberty Daily reports that the Biden regime is apparently lending money overseas to illegal aliens so they can enter the country illegally. In the meantime, millions of Americans struggle to pay for their basic needs every week.

The administration is working in cahoots with the United Nations IOM Migration Program, along with the United States Refugee Admissions Program, to hand out taxpayer money to illegal aliens to assist them in getting to the United States. Oh, and the “loans” never have to be paid back.

The program’s website offers “penalty and interest-free loans” to anyone wishing to come to the United States. American citizens pay 7.5% on mortgage loans if they are actually able to find a home to purchase. The illegals are only required to sign a “promissory note” agreeing to pay back the loan prior to leaving their country of origin. If they don’t pay back the loan, it’s no problem since there are no penalties attached.

“IOM arranges travel for refugees using funds furnished by the Department of State and is mandated to subsequently receive refugees repayments on behalf of the Department of State,” the website states. Again, there are no penalties attached for nonpayment.

“Repayments made are remitted to a revolving fund created between the Department of State and IOM for use by the Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM) to defray the cost of future refugee travel.”

One might think that with Republicans in charge of the House and therefore having the “power of the purse,” they could defund this program. Thus far, Republicans have not chosen to do so. That fact got some “X” users fired up.

“Why does the House fund these programs?” one X user asked. “CALL your representatives and tell them to STOP funding the INVASION–make yourselves HEARD.”

Another asked, “How is this not treason?”

Among the stated goals of the UN’s IOM program (why the hell are we still in the UN?) is to protect illegals who invade our country from being exploited by “abusive and predatory lending markets.”

The days when building your credit was worthwhile and rewarded are long gone. The answer is no longer if you illegally enter the country.

The program initially started back in 1958, and at that time, arriving refugees had to repay the loans, with that being a condition of admittance to the United States. Now, illegals are receiving the equivalent of PPP loans given out during the pandemic that were not required to be paid back.

Another poster on X asked, “Is there no limit to how criminal the American government is?”

“This is treacherous actions against U.S. citizens,” said another. “Attempting to implement UN ‘migration rights’ with no respect for nation’s sovereignty. End UN membership. Toss them out of the U.S. Lockdown ALL borders.”

Still, others wondered how the Biden regime gets away with operating in such a lawless manner while “nobody does anything” about it.

‘This is pure treachery, and it has to be stopped,” said another. “They are using taxpayer money to pay the way for illegals to get here.”

“Another reason NOT to extend the continuing resolution,” said another, referring to how Congress has been funding the budget for what seems like forever.

This is just another kick to the collective groin of American taxpayers.

‘Almost Unhinged’: Victor Davis Hanson Lays Out Issues With Media’s Coverage On Out-Of-Context ‘Bloodbath’ Remarks

Hoover Institute senior fellow Victor Davis Hanson detailed issues Monday on Fox News with the media’s out-of-context coverage of former President Donald Trump’s “bloodbath” remarks.

Hanson appeared on “The Ingraham Angle” to discuss the coverage of Trump’s remarks made over the weekend that it would be a “bloodbath for the country” if Biden was reelected in reference to the threat he believes the Biden Administration poses to the auto industry. Fox host Laura Ingraham asked Hanson about the “seriousness” of the issues, adding that the media has continuously taken the former president’s words out of context and claimed that he was escalating violence. 

“It’s serious because it shows you that these people are in free fall,” Hanson said. “They are almost unhinged because they have tried to destroy Donald Trump through lawfare and indictments are not working. They tried to get him off the ballot. They tried to bankrupt him and ruin him psychologically, physically, and financially – that hasn’t worked. They look at the issues that are important to all of us, Laura, the border, crime, inflation, what happened in Afghanistan, two wars that broke out on the Biden watch, energy, and they can’t run on any of them because they have been an ungodly disaster.”

“Then they look at the candidate themselves, and he is not able to function as a normal 21st-century candidate,” he added. “They look at the vice president. So this frustration builds up. And they just lash out and they – they make it worse. They are like an addict – they don’t understand that the fixation is destroying them and destroying their popularity, their theme, and message. But they can’t stop, they’re so obsessed. I’ve never seen anything like this before.”

Following Trump’s remarks on Saturday at an Ohio campaign rally, coverage of the former president’s “bloodbath” line circulated online. Alongside the corporate media’s coverage, Biden’s campaign team posted a nine-second clip of the remark without providing context to viewers that the former president was referring to the auto industry.

Trump took to social media Monday to hit back against the backlash he received, clarifying the context of the comment.

“I was simply referring to imports allowed by Crooked Joe Biden, which are killing the automobile industry,” Trump wrote. “The United Auto Workers, but not their leadership, fully understand what I mean.”

Major Retailer Files For Bankruptcy As Americans Cut Back On Creature Comforts

Major fabric and craft retailer Joann announced Monday that it was filing for bankruptcy as consumers pull back on spending due to harsh economic conditions.

The retailer recently reached an agreement with a majority of its financial stakeholders as well as other financing parties, giving the company around $132 million in new financing while also reducing the debt on the company’s balance sheet by around $505 million, according to an announcement from Joann. Retail sales across the U.S. economy have continued to slump in recent months, growing just 0.6% month-to-month in February, not including inflation, and declining 1.1% in January as consumers pull back on non-essentials as prices rise.

“Over the past several months, Joann has made meaningful business improvements through the execution of our Focus, Simplify and Grow cost reduction initiative,” Chris DiTullio, Chief Customer Officer, said in the release. “We appreciate the support from our financial and industry stakeholders in this agreement, and their confidence in our ability to continue driving positive business change. There is no other retailer with the same ability to serve sewists, quilters, crocheters, crafters and other creative enthusiasts as we have for the past 80 years, and we take great pride in seeing the passion and engagement of our millions of customers and our team members.”

Joann currently operates over 800 stores in the U.S. and describes 95% of them as cash flow positive, according to the announcement. The company will continue to operate stores and its e-commerce website despite the filings, but is expected to become a private company at the completion of the deal, owned by certain lenders, and will no longer be listed on the stock exchange.

The company’s net sales fell 4.1% in the third quarter year-over-year to $539.8 million, equating to a net loss of $21.6 million in the quarter, according to Joann’s earnings report. Joann’s long-term debt was around $1.15 billion as of October 28, 2023.

Inflation has continued to remain elevated, with the consumer price index rising 3.2% year-over-year in February, far higher than the Federal Reserve’s 2% target, after increasing 3.1% in January. In an attempt to decelerate inflation, the Fed has placed its federal funds rate in a range of 5.25% and 5.50%, the highest in 23 years, placing upward pressure on interest rates across the economy.

Joann did not immediately respond to a request to comment from the Daily Caller News Foundation.
