EXCLUSIVE: Web Of Illegal Marijuana Grows Tied To Chinese Communist Party Front Group

/in , , , , , , , , , , , /by

A group of men charged with running an illegal marijuana farm in rural Maine have extensive ties to a Chinese Communist Party (CCP) organ responsible for intelligence gathering and foreign influence operations, a Daily Caller News Foundation investigation found.

Two of the men, who pleaded not guilty, are leaders of the Sijiu Association of New York, a Brooklyn-based nonprofit, which works closely with the New York Chinese Consulate and United Front Work Department (UFWD) — one of Beijing’s main influence and intelligence arms. Chinese government records reveal several Sijiu Association officials belong to UFWD branches, and state-run media reports show the nonprofit has also agreed to fund UFWD projects.

Chinese illegal marijuana grows in the Pine Tree State have taken root within former residential dwellings, recycling facilities, cedar mills, elementary schools and other industrial locations, according to investigative reports by the Maine Wire. Police raids have recovered hundreds of pounds of cultivated marijuana and thousands of cannabis plants within a single location, and sometimes have also led to the discovery of methamphetamines or banned neurotoxins used for fumigation.

“We’ve identified and visited more than 150 illegal Chinese marijuana growing operations throughout the state of Maine,” Steve Robinson, editor-in-chief of the Maine Wire, told the DCNF. “The neighbors are terrified, and legitimate marijuana businesses are collapsing due to the illegal competition.”

A Department of Homeland Security (DHS) memorandum first reported by the DCNF in August 2023 identified 270 suspected Chinese illegal marijuana grows across Maine. The DCNF was provided access to documents by a federal law enforcement source, who requested anonymity because they weren’t authorized to speak publicly.

Ammon Blair, senior fellow at the Texas Public Policy Foundation, told the DCNF that such operations “serve as cash cows for CCP-linked entities operating abroad who are otherwise limited in financial operations due to U.S. banking restrictions, sanctions, or scrutiny.”

“What makes the Maine example uniquely disturbing is the direct linkage of grow operations to CCP-tied civic associations in New York — specifically those operating under the umbrella of the UFWD,” said Blair, a former Border Patrol Agent and Army veteran. “This fusion of transnational organized crime, political warfare infrastructure, and ideological alignment suggests these operations may be dual-use: criminal on the surface, but strategic in effect.”

Yet, to be sure, law enforcement have not implicated the Sijiu Association itself, which could not be reached for comment.

‘The Boss’

Police arrested two Sijiu Association members during a 2023 raid of a Maine property linked to a network of illegal marijuana grow operations, according to a DCNF review of police records, Chinese state media reports and investigations conducted by the Maine Wire.

In October 2022, the manager of Carmel, Maine, a town located roughly 20 miles west of Bangor, filed a complaint with the Penobscot County Sheriff’s Office “reporting he suspected illegal marijuana grows taking place at 3 separate residences,” the police report states.

When law enforcement raided the home on June 29, 2023, they discovered 3,455 cannabis plants and 111 pounds of processed marijuana, according to the Penobscot County Sheriff’s Office. Police also arrested four Chinese men, including Huang Weizhan, 64, who allegedly told authorities during questioning he was “the boss.”

Huang Weizhan is also the “executive chairman” of the Sijiu Association, the DCNF determined by matching his mugshot and name with footage from the organization’s events, Chinese state media photos and reports.

A list of the Siju Association’s founding members and donors also indicate Huang Weizhan contributed $3,000 to help establish the nonprofit.

Huang Yongchao, 53, who was also arrested during the raid, donated $200 to the Sijiu Association, according to the same list. Footage from the Sijiu Association’s March 2022 inaugural banquet shows Huang Weizhan and Huang Yongchao together during the event’s opening ceremony, dinner and later on stage singing karaoke.

During questioning, Huang Weizhan admitted that “close to the interstate” between exit 130 and exit 244 “all the Chinese people are growing marijuana,” according to the police report. Huang Weizhan admitted selling marijuana and said buyers had been “arranged through a friend” named “Rong,” before ominously adding he would “be dead” because he’d borrowed money from a “relative/friend,” the police report states.

Prosecutors charged all four men with illegal cultivation of marijuana, to which they pleaded not guilty, according to the report. Shortly after their arrests, all the men were bailed out of prison and their cases continue to move through the court.

Huang Weizhan declined to comment through his attorney, William H. Ashe, and Huang Yongchao’s attorney, Jeffrey M. Silverstein, did not respond to multiple requests for comment.

Sheriff Troy Morton of the Penobscot County Sheriff’s Office told the DCNF that although he could not comment on the Carmel raid’s “impact on current and future active investigations,” he said they had “conducted several other search warrants on similar residences.”

“This is a sufficient public health and safety issue beyond the cultivation of marijuana,” Morton said. “Our office along with other Sheriff’s Offices in the State of Maine will remain steadfast in investigating this criminal activity.”

‘Illicit Marijuana’

The Sijiu Association’s apparent ties to illegal marijuana grows were first reported by the Maine Wire in May 2024 while investigating a residence in the town of Dexter. At the “seemingly abandoned property on Highland Avenue that once operated as an illicit marijuana cultivation site,” the Maine Wire photographed a “BMW containing t-shirts affiliated with the Sijiu Association.”

“The BMW caught my eye because it was the nicest vehicle we’d ever seen at an abandoned grow, and the t-shirts were kind of unusual,” Robison, editor-in-chief of the Maine Wire told the DCNF.

Robinson said he grew up near the Highland Avenue home and was thus “very familiar” with it.

“Neighbors confirmed our suspicions that it was an illegal marijuana grow,” Robinson said.

“After the house was purchased, the new owners did a substantial amount of concrete work inside, likely building large cisterns where water and growing chemicals are mixed prior to being pumped to plants,” Robinson said. “It does not appear that anyone ever lived at the house. Instead, they lived in nearby flop houses or at other grows.”

However, no arrests appear to have been made in connection with the Highland Avenue property, according to the Maine Wire and a DCNF review of local police reports.

OCP did not respond to multiple requests for comment and the town of Carmel declined to comment.

‘Overseas Chinese Work’

The Sijiu Association and its leaders have extensive ties to the Chinese government and the United Front Work Department (UFWD), according to Chinese government and state media reports.

The UFWD’s operations are a “unique blend of engagement, influence activities, and intelligence operations that the [CCP] uses to shape its political environment, including to influence other countries’ policy toward the [People’s Republic of China],” according to a memo published by the House Select Committee on the CCP.

Among other ties, a UFWD organization called the China Overseas Friendship Association (COFA) has identified at least three Sijiu Association officials as “directors,” including one individual who shook hands with Xi Jinping during COFA’s September 2019 conference in Beijing, Chinese state media footage shows. COFA operates as “an important platform through which the UFWD co-opts and interacts with overseas United Front figures,” according to the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission (USCC).

On an organizational level, the Sijiu Association has also cooperated with the New York Chinese Consulate and the UFWD on multiple occasions.

In one instance, the Sijiu Association chairman met with New York Chinese Consulate and UFWD personnel in December 2022 to discuss cooperation on “overseas Chinese work,” according to New York-based Chinese-language news outlet CompactNews.

“The goal of ‘overseas Chinese work’ is to use ethnic, cultural, economic, or political ties to mobilize sympathetic overseas Chinese communities — ideally of their own accord — to advocate for the interests of the CCP and marginalize its opponents,” according to USCC.

“The CCP often operates through layered deniability and compartmentalized / decentralized missions where the intent is understood — even if the order is not spoken,” said Blair. “Thus, while the consulate or UFWD may not say ‘go grow weed,’ they do cultivate plausibly deniable networks with known ties to criminal enterprises, and reward those networks’ loyalty and utility to Party objectives.”

In another instance, the Sijiu Association chairman remotely participated in an October 2024 UFWD event in Jiangmen, Guangdong province, during which he signed an agreement with a UFWD “subordinate unit” called the All-China Federation Of Industry And Commerce (ACFIC) to fund a CCP investment initiative in southern China called the “Hundred, Thousand, and Ten Thousand Project.”

The “Hundred, Thousand, and Ten Thousand Project” was the driving force behind an April 2024 fair in Sijiu, Taishan several months before the October 2024 UFWD investment ceremony, Chinese state media reported.

Out on bail, Huang Weizhan reportedly returned to China for the first time in five years and attended that April 2024 Sijiu fair, during which he was interviewed by Chinese state media.

“Sijiu’s transportation is becoming increasingly convenient, and its rustic scenery is constantly improving, making it a veritable paradise for development,” Huang Weizhan reportedly said, according to a DCNF translation. After returning to the U.S., Huang Weizhan said he would “recommend [Sijiu] to his overseas friends and family, and encourage more overseas compatriots to return to invest and start businesses.”

“By controlling illicit revenue streams, Sijiu Association leaders could wield influence over Chinese-American communities in New York, aligning them with CCP narratives,” Blair told the DCNF. “The association’s consulate ties and UFWD agreement position it to channel grow profits into influence operations, such as funding pro-CCP media or political contributions, as seen in other UFWD cases.”

DISLODGING THE BUREAUCRACY

/in , , , , , , , , , , , /by

It’s been two weeks since President Donald Trump’s deadline for government agencies to submit plans on downsizing their workforces and moving most of their functions outside of D.C.

We haven’t heard much about whether any agencies will actually be moving from D.C., but the idea is incredibly popular with conservatives for several reasons: the government could save money if employees are living in lower cost areas, it’s an easy way to downsize because a number of employees will quit rather than move, and the bureaucracy could be more efficient and make better decisions if it is closer to the people it governs.

This was the premise of a Steamboat Institute debate I moderated at Colorado Mesa University on Tuesday night. The resolution was, “Should more federal agencies, such as the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), be relocated outside Washington, D.C?”

Former Acting BLM Director William Perry Pendley, who oversaw moving the BLM headquarters to Grand Junction, Colorado, in 2019, argued the affirmative. He said the on-the-ground experience he had working with local experts and seeing the issues facing local citizens empowered him to be more confident in his decision-making. Mary Jo Rugwell, the president of the Public Lands Foundation and the former state director of the Bureau of Land Management in Wyoming, argued the negative. Rugwell felt that moving BLM leadership out of DC would lead to poor cooperation with other agencies and inefficiency in communicating decision-making to the executive branch, but acknowledged that it’s a worthy goal to try to shrink government and make it more efficient.

It was a well-argued debate and you can watch the entire thing for yourself here. My main takeaway, though, was that more government agencies should be structured like the BLM.

Even before it moved to Grand Junction (which Biden reversed during his presidency), 97% of BLM employees work in the western U.S, with really only agency leadership stationed in D.C. Ninety-nine percent of the land that the BLM manages is in the West or Alaska, so the staff reflect the area it governs. When Pendley relocated the BLM, he kept some public relations, communications, and government affairs staff in D.C. to handle cooperation with Congress and other agencies. Individuals who were doing their jobs well but did not want to move to Grand Junction were offered positions in other parts of the federal government.

Even Pendley, who is supportive of DOGE’s efforts to cull the federal workforce, said that most of the staff that he worked with at BLM were good at their jobs and were not involved in attempts to sabotage or undermine the Trump administration. I suspect that’s probably the case for two reasons: 1. There were fewer dyed-in-the-wool northern Virginia glowies in the workforce and 2. Bureaucrats were working on issues closer to home, ones that often superseded partisan politics.

BLM will always be unique in that land management is, again, not an issue that neatly cuts across partisan lines. However, the idea of decentralizing agencies while keeping a handful of positions required to negotiate budgets, advocate for legislation, or otherwise work with the legislative and executive branches, in D.C., seems pretty smart to me. It could lead to actual experts instead of just people who read white papers all day helping to make decisions on behalf of the American people. Plus, it might be harder to abuse your power if you are forced to delegate decision-making and don’t have tens of thousands of gung ho g-men housed in one building in the most corrupt city in the country.

EXCLUSIVE: Harmeet Dhillon Reveals What’s Next For ‘Notorious’ DOJ Office That Was Weaponized Under Biden

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

After the Biden administration spent four years “weaponizing” her division, Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon says that she needs more “energized attorneys” to help her spearhead new initiatives to protect rights that have been trampled on in the past years.

The priorities pursued in the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) Civil Rights Division by her predecessor Kristen Clarke — prosecuting pro-life activists, suing states over election integrity efforts and targeting police departments — are going to change, Dhillon told the Daily Caller News Foundation during a Friday interview.

Under her leadership, Dhillon said the Civil Rights Division will continue its core mission, while expanding to new areas of focus including defending the Second Amendment, ending race discrimination in employment, securing parental rights and fighting antisemitism on college campuses.

Some current and former career attorneys in the division are claiming the shifts in policy will undermine civil rights enforcement. Last week, around a dozen senior lawyers in the division were reassigned, Reuters reported.

“We have changed the priorities, not the mission, the priorities, in each of the sections in the Civil Rights Division,” Dhillon told the DCNF. “Some personnel here have decided that they’d rather make their careers elsewhere.”

WATCH:

The following interview has been edited for the sake of length and clarity.

A lot of Americans were concerned over the past four years how this division has been one of the most weaponized in the DOJ. What did you walk into three weeks ago when you came in?

The Civil Rights Division is one of the largest litigating departments of the United States Department of Justice, and you’re correct, a lot of the most notorious, headline-grabbing policies out of the Biden DOJ came from the Civil Rights Division.

For example, the Civil Rights Division was responsible for challenging Georgia’s election laws. The DOJ took it upon itself to harass Georgia over doing the right thing. The DOJ Civil Rights Division spent a lot of resources persecuting Christians for praying outside abortion clinics, not violently, not in any way obstructing people, just praying. That’s outrageous, and we’ve dismissed those prosecutions. The Civil Rights Division has been bringing and maintaining, I think, pretty flimsy cases against police departments and other law enforcement agencies for alleged statistical anomalies in arrest rates, very small anomalies. Statistics are easily manipulated.

We are here to absolutely punish misconduct by the police, by employers, by housing agencies that discriminate against people, by educational institutions that discriminate against students and a whole host of other civil rights statutes. There’s human trafficking, certain human trafficking statues come under our purview.

We’re required to enforce the federal civil rights laws. So all of that is going to continue to be done under the Civil Rights Division, disability law and all of that, but the emphasis is going to be different. It isn’t going to be on opening up investigations and harassing people endlessly and maintaining 40-and 50-year-old consent decrees. It’s going to be examining wrongdoing or alleged wrongdoing and determining quickly whether it occurred or not. If it does, we’ll go after it. If it doesn’t, we’ll move on.

More importantly, I think the rights of ordinary Americans over the last years have been stripped and violated. The First Amendment: during COVID, we saw so many violations of civil rights in every single area, which is something that I took on as a private lawyer. The FACE [Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances] Act can be used to protect clinics where women get counseling about their options for abortion, and 200 of those have been violently attacked, firebombed, picketed and otherwise been obstructed over the last few years with zero action from the DOJ. That’s going to change.

We have changed the priorities, not the mission, the priorities, in each of the sections in the Civil Rights Division. Some personnel here have decided that they’d rather make their careers elsewhere. So there’ll be quite a bit of turnover here in the Civil Rights Division.

What does that look like as far as staffing? Do you have enough attorneys to execute those new priorities that you’re hoping to focus on?

Love more. We’re waiting for, you know, throughout the federal government, people are being offered an opportunity to take severance that pays them for five months, and they don’t have to work anymore. They still stay on our books, so, you know, from the bean counter’s perspective I have all those people.

But reality is, not only are we going to continue the mission of the Civil Rights Division, the traditional, core functions, there are a lot of new functions that our president wants us to be looking at, and new functions that I want to do. For example, the Second Amendment is a civil right. The Civil Rights Division has never gone after states that systematically violate our right under Bruen and other Supreme decisions to carry weapons, to bear arms, to keep them in our homes. We’re going to be doing that in the Civil Rights Division.

I mentioned the FACE act, different applications of the FACE act. Rampant antisemitism on college campuses is going to come to an end under our purview. Employers that discriminate against people on the basis of race and use quotas in hiring that are in no way justified, public sector employers, will be getting inquiries from us, and so that’s a new priority that wasn’t being done before. That’s almost every employer in America, unfortunately, certainly in the public sector. We’re taking on de-banking practices.

These are all new things. I’m going to need new, energized attorneys dedicated to this mission. Once we finish this reorganization, and finish the severance process, we’ll be hiring again.

What are some of the lessons you learned from your private practice in the past that you’re bringing into your role here?

I am the rare thing of a conservative civil rights lawyer almost my entire career. So for 18 years, I had my own law firm. For six years, I had a nonprofit that I founded. Both of those, well, one, represented the president in his campaign and his personal life, and many prominent people whose speech rights were violated.

That’s something I’m very passionate about, the First Amendment. But during COVID, we saw every American’s rights trampled on in so many different ways. I filed more lawsuits during COVID than any other lawyer in the United States to challenge governors and local officials stripping away people’s private rights. So these are some of the things that I intend to bring to bear here.

I’ve been a lawyer for the Second Amendment community. I’ve been a lawyer for the pro-life community. Very passionate about all of those areas. I’m not here to do my priorities. I’m here to do the president’s priorities, which happen to overlap a lot with my priorities.

Another priority that Trump signed an executive order on is child gender mutilation and the transgender issue. Could you address specifically what actions you might be taking in the future? How you might be dealing with doctors, medical malpractice cases?

I can’t be specific because that wouldn’t be appropriate, but I can tell anyone to look at my record. In my private practice, in my nonprofit, I represented four prominent young women who detransitioned — Chloe Cole, Luka Hein, Clementine Breen and one other. These girls and their families were sold a package of lies. They were subjected to medical malpractice, and frankly, doctors looked the other way on their actual medical issues and put them on this conveyor belt. Thankfully, each of them realized they made a terrible mistake, and they’ll never get their breasts back. Thankfully, worse wasn’t done to them.

The president and the attorney general have emphasized that we need to be using female genital mutilation statutes that bar female genital mutilation on girls under the age of 18, a barbaric practice that we condemn around the world, but do right here in the United States. That doesn’t protect boys, unfortunately, but we will aggressively be looking at the extent to which doctors, medical institutions, public institutions, UCSF, and you know, all these public institutions around the country, have been violating the civil rights of American families.

Some states are systematically destroying parental rights, which is a civil right, by enabling the smuggling of children across the state borders to obtain this destructive treatment and surgery. That’s illegal, in my opinion, and it may violate human trafficking statutes. So there are a number of things that we’re going to look at.

WATCH:

On the religious liberty front, I know you’ve spoken a lot about that. Earlier this week, there was a meeting of the anti-Christian Bias Task Force. What do you see as the biggest issue in the religious liberty space?

Well there’s so many. I’ve mentioned some of them, but I think there’s open hostility to religion in many sectors of our society.

We’ve had presidents mock people who cling to their faith. People who sought medical exemptions from the COVID vaccine during that terrible era, were fired from our military, were fired from jobs all over the United States. There’s active anti-Christian hostility in the military, in various government agencies. Chaplains are told not to preach their faith if they’re Christian. I mean, there’s so many things. Secretary Hegseth went over those at our meeting. And State Department Secretary Rubio talked about examples over there.

We have federal statutes that protect religion, not just the First Amendment, but there’s the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act. We’ve brought several cases in the DOJ Civil Rights Division to protect houses of worship, Christian and others. It’s an important right that we have, and we need to protect people of faith, even in prisons. People who have committed crimes don’t lose their religious rights. I’m very passionate about that issue, and have spent my entire 32 year career working to represent the rights of people of faith.

On election security, I also wanted to ask you, what can be done about states that are allowing non-citizens on voter rolls? What role will the Civil Rights Division have in those issues?

We have a role. We administer the Voting Rights Act, the Help America Vote Act, the National Voter Registration Act. Those are specific statutes. What we are not is the all purpose law enforcement agency of elections. Americans need to understand that most of our election laws are based in the states. However, there are these federal laws.

As a lawyer for many candidates over the years, and having been a candidate myself, I’m very passionate about that. And as an immigrant to this country, I think it’s outrageous that people conflate immigrant and illegal immigrant and [say] ‘nobody should be asking for anybody’s ID.’ It’s 2025. Everyone in America who’s here legally can easily get an ID. So that’s nonsense.

I do think that we need to be enforcing voter ID laws, allowing them, enabling them and making it easier for anyone who is legally entitled to vote in the United States to vote easily. That’s the bottom line. So the hostility that we see from one side politically and from judges to this basic concept, we have to work around it. There may be legislative solutions that are required, but whatever we can do at the DOJ to make sure that our elections are fair, safe and reliable, we will be doing.

You mentioned judges. There’s been a lot of talk about district court judges overriding the president, a lot of the executive orders. What do you think the answer is there?

Oh, that’s the heavy one. And I have to appear in front of these judges, so I will not say exactly what I think about some of these judges and their rulings. What I will say is that we have a runaway trend of judges, you know, substituting their judgment for the president’s. That is not what separation of powers means. I’ll leave it at that. I’m involved in several active cases. I can’t really take a position any more than this.

Finally, what would you say Americans should expect from the Civil Rights Division over the next four years? What’s your final message?

Well, they can expect that we’ll be enforcing the federal civil rights statutes. They can expect that the emphasis of that enforcement is going to be more towards the president’s agenda. He has many executive orders out there that I fully agree with and he has a right as an executive, the person that the American people chose to be our president, to direct that agenda.

Now, that doesn’t mean we’re going to stop doing traditional work, like the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) is an important statute. Discrimination is bad. Violence at any house of worship or any health care facility is unacceptable, and all those statutes are going to be enforced. But we will not be weaponizing the federal government against law abiding citizens, against law abiding employers, against police departments that are trying to do the right thing and are largely doing the right thing. But if you’re enabling violent and obstructive, antisemitic protests on your campus, and I have jurisdiction, you will not be doing that.

100 DAYS OF HOAXES: Cutting Through the Outright and Disinformation of Fake News

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

The White House called out the ‘nonstop deluge of hoaxes and lies from Democrats and their allies in the Fake News’

The White House released a list of the “most egregious hoaxes” perpetuated by the media in the first 100 days of President Donald Trump’s second term Tuesday.

The Trump administration published a press release declaring, “Since President Donald J. Trump took office 100 days ago, it has been a nonstop deluge of hoaxes and lies from Democrats and their allies in the Fake News suffering from terminal cases of Trump Derangement Syndrome.”

The administration went on to list 57 purported “hoaxes” spread by the president’s critics, the media and Democrats.

Since President Donald J. Trump took office 100 days ago, it has been a nonstop deluge of hoaxes and lies from Democrats and their allies in the Fake News suffering from terminal cases of Trump Derangement Syndrome.

In no particular order, here are some of the most egregious hoaxes peddled by the usual suspects so far in President Trump’s second term:

  • HOAX: Fake News CNN attempted to “fact check” President Trump’s claim that the Biden Administration spent millions on “making mice transgender.”
  • FACT: After their so-called “fact check” was thoroughly debunked, they were forced to update it in disgrace and admit the claim was, in fact, true.
  • HOAX: The Fake News claimed the Department of Defense removed Gen. Colin Powell’s name from a list of notable Americans buried at Arlington Cemetery.
  • FACT: No service members’ names were removed from that section — and Gen. Powell’s name remains among those listed.
  • HOAX: Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) claimed “no president” presided over more plane crashes during their first month in office as President Trump.
  • FACT: “There were 55 aviation accidents in the U.S. between Biden’s inauguration on Jan. 21, 2021, and Feb. 17, 2021, compared to 35 during the same period for Trump,” Fox News reported.
  • HOAX: Gov. JB Pritzker (D-IL) and Chicago Public Schools officials claimed, without bothering to verify, that ICE agents had conducted a “raid” at an elementary school — a false claim echoed by media outlets, including the Chicago Tribune.
  • FACT: It was actually the U.S. Secret Service investigating a threat unrelated to immigration.
  • HOAX: Far-left influencers and other leftist hacks falsely claimed the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and Elon Musk were out to “cut Social Security.”
  • FACT: They were referencing an interview in which Musk was clearly referring to the tremendous amount of waste, fraud, and abuse within entitlement programs.
  • HOAX: The media smeared DOGE as “young, inexperienced engineers” engineering a “government takeover.”
  • FACT: In reality, DOGE is led by seasoned industry professionals, including successful CEOs who paused their lives to aid in the effort of streamlining government and holding the bureaucracy accountable.
  • HOAX: NBC’s Peter Alexander peddled the lie that “constituents in some traditionally red districts” were unhappy with President Trump’s effort to cut waste, fraud, and abuse in government.
  • FACT: The same “protests” cited by the Fake News were funded and organized by far-left special interest groups.
  • HOAX: NPR claimed NASA astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore — who were stuck on the International Space Station for more than nine months following problems with their spacecraft — were “not stranded.”
  • FACT: NPR itself had described the astronauts as stranded in prior reporting, and only seemed to take issue with the description once President Trump and Elon Musk made it a priority to bring them home.
  • HOAX: A foreign Fake News outlet reported that President Trump “shut down” the British prime minister during a news conference.
  • FACT: In reality, President Trump was simply moving on from a reporter who was trying to goad the two leaders into division.
  • HOAX: NPR falsely claimed the White House was actively searching for a new secretary of defense.
  • FACT: This lie was immediately shut down by multiple Trump Administration officials, including President Trump himself.
  • HOAX: The Fake News attempted to paint illegal immigrant gang member Kilmar Abrego Garcia as an innocent “Maryland father” who was unjustly deported by the Trump Administration — and actively censored the truth about him.
  • FACT: Abrego Garcia is a citizen of El Salvador and was deported to his home country amid overwhelming evidence of his gang affiliation.
  • HOAX: Deranged “filmmaker” Michael Moore questioned whether deported illegal immigrants would go on to cure cancer or stop “that asteroid (sic) that’s gonna hit us.”
  • FACT: Moore’s statement was a strong early contender for the dumbest, most ridiculous statement of the year considering those deported illegal immigrants were violent criminals.
  • HOAX: The Fake News portrayed Mahmoud Khalil, a pro-Hamas radical who led violent protests at Columbia, as an innocent graduate student with an absolute right to remain in the U.S.
  • FACT: An immigration judge ruled Khalil — who is not a U.S. citizen — can be deported.
  • HOAX: The Financial Times reported that Senior White House Counselor Peter Navarro wanted to remove Canada from the “Five Eyes” intelligence sharing network.
  • FACT: Mr. Navarro immediately shut down this fake story.
  • HOAX: A foreign Fake News reporter claimed President Trump referred to European nations as “parasites.”
  • FACT: President Trump immediately pushed back on this ridiculous claim — as did the Italian prime minister.

Will the Conclave select a Catholic Pope or another Communist Cleric?

/in , , , , , , , , , , /by

Catholics suffered under Pope Francis, globally. His reign was marked more by Marxism than Catholicism.

In November, 2022 Pope Francis gave the Jesuits of left-leaning America magazine an extensive and exclusive interview. During that interview Pope Francis stated, “If I See the Gospel in a Sociological Way Only, Yes, I Am a Communist, and So Too Is Jesus”

reported,

It is shocking for a pope to insinuate that the “Gospel [viewed] in a sociological way only” reveals that Jesus was a communist, and, therefore, he is too.

Besides being blasphemous, such an insinuation stems from a methodological error.

Obviously, a sociological analysis of the Gospel, in strictly scientific terms, does not lead to that conclusion. That only occurs if one adopts the so-called “Marxist analysis” as scientific—as does liberation theology. Now, Marxist analysis is nothing but an adaptation of reality to the aprioristic Marxist premises. Marxists do not investigate reality according to objective facts but interpret and adapt it to previous conclusions of the communist and socialist parties’ ideology.

It is not surprising that Pope Francis states: “The communists stole some of our Christian values.” It also explains his lavish praise for the late Cardinal Agostino Casaroli, the leading promoter of the Vatican policy of détente with communist regimes, who affirmed, “Catholics who live in Cuba are happy under the socialist regime.”4 Ditto Pope Francis’s satisfaction concerning the dialogue with China because, he says, the Chinese are “a people of great wisdom.”5 Everyone knows he is not ‘dialoguing’ with the Chinese people but with the Chinese Communist Party.

QUESTION: How did this happen, how did Catholics get a Communist Cleric?

KGB in Catholic Church

During the Cold War, the KGB extensively infiltrated the Catholic Church in various Eastern European countries. The KGB aimed to undermine the Church’s influence and promote Communist interests. For instance, in Lithuania, the KGB infiltrated the Catholic seminary with agents and recruited seminarians to spread pro-Soviet ideologies.

The KGB also targeted high-ranking Catholic officials. In 1975, the KGB organized a conference in Warsaw to devise a strategy for more coordinated intelligence operations against the Catholic Church. They aimed to cultivate influential Catholic officials and gather intelligence on future papal elections.

In addition, the KGB attempted to create divisions within the Catholic Church by promoting leftist Catholic groups and publishing anti-Vatican materials. For example, the KGB supported the publication ‘Neo-Znak’ to publish anti-Vatican or pro-Soviet Catholic materials.

Former KGB agents and defectors have provided evidence of these infiltrations. Ion Mihai Pacepa, a former general in Romania’s secret police, claimed that the KGB created liberation theology, a quasi-Marxist movement that flourished in Latin America from the 1960s to the 1990s.

These infiltrations highlight the extent to which the KGB sought to influence and control the Catholic Church during the Cold War period.

Homsexuality during the reign of Frances

Pope Francis’s Initiatives:

Pope Francis has moved towards greater inclusivity, including allowing blessings for same-sex couples in specific contexts, a significant shift in the Church’s stance. He has also spoken out against laws that criminalize homosexuality and has emphasized the Church’s welcoming of all people, according to PBS.

Transgender Inclusion:

The Vatican has also released a document outlining the inclusion of transgender people in Catholic sacraments, allowing them to be baptized and serve as godparents and witnesses.

Legal Status in Vatican City:

Vatican City does not have laws criminalizing same-sex sexual activity between consenting adults.

 The Bottom Line

Pope Frances, formally Jorge Mario Bergoglio, was the head of the Catholic Church and sovereign of the Vatican City State from 13 March 2013 until his death. He was the first pope to be a Jesuit, the first Latin American, the first from the Southern Hemisphere, and the first born or raised outside Europe.

In his preaching at Santo Spirito Church in Sassia close to the Vatican, on Sunday 11 April, 2021, Pope Francis claimed that the ideal of sharing property — in contrast to private ownership — is “pure Christianity and not Communism“.

Pope John Paul II consistently criticized communism, viewing it as an atheistic system that suppressed individual dignity and freedom. He believed it was inherently flawed and ultimately self-destructive. While acknowledging his role in inspiring resistance, he emphasized that the fall of communism was also due to its own internal weaknesses and mistakes.

Here are some key points from his teachings on communism:

Atheistic System:

John Paul II saw communism as inherently atheistic, emphasizing its rejection of God and spiritual values.

Suppression of Individual Dignity:

He criticized communism for its focus on collective interests at the expense of individual rights and freedoms.

Flawed Social System:

He argued that communism failed to deliver true social justice and economic prosperity, instead leading to oppression and poverty.

Self-Destructive Nature:

John Paul II believed that communism’s internal contradictions and failures ultimately led to its collapse.

Inspired Resistance:

He played a significant role in inspiring resistance to communism, particularly in Eastern Europe, but acknowledged that the fall was also due to other factors.

For example, he stated, “It would be simplistic to say that Divine Providence caused the fall of Communism. In a certain sense Communism as a system fell by itself. It fell as a consequence of its own mistakes and abuses. It proved to be a medicine more dangerous than the disease itself” according to a post on Medium.

His words and actions, especially during his visit to Poland, were seen as a catalyst for the weakening of communist regimes in Eastern Europe.

Frances was a Communist Cleric.

What Catholics globally are praying for is a Catholic Pope like Saint John Paul II.

Trump in Rome: Maneuverings for a Good Pope?

WHITE HOUSE: 100 Days at the Border

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

President Donald J. Trump has delivered on his campaign promises to secure the U.S. border, achieving historic reductions in illegal crossings and apprehending dangerous criminals.

His administration has implemented tough policies, including designating violent gangs as Foreign Terrorist Organizations and resuming border wall construction, to enhance national security and public safety.

Through mass deportation operations and targeted enforcement, the administration has arrested over 150,000 illegal immigrants, including gang members and criminals, while drastically reducing the number of unaccompanied minors crossing the border.

The President has taken decisive action to eliminate sanctuary cities and cut federal benefits for illegal immigrants, redirecting resources to support American citizens.

His administration has also invoked the Alien Enemies Act to dismantle migrant criminal networks and shut down immigration apps used to exploit the system.

With measures like the Laken Riley Act and executive orders to streamline border security, his policies have transformed the border into the most secure in modern American history!

America is BACK & America is SAFE!

PROMISES MADE, PROMISES KEPT: Border Security Achieved in Fewer Than 100 Days

Since President Donald J. Trump took office, he and his administration have ushered in the most secure border in modern American history — and he didn’t need legislation to do it. President Trump has made good on the promises he made on the campaign trail to usher in an unprecedented era of homeland security.

Here are a few of those promises:

PROMISE MADE: “We will close the border. We will stop the invasion of illegals into our country.” (10/12/24, Aurora, CO)

PROMISE KEPT:

  • Illegal border encounters are down by 95%.
  • Illegal immigrant “gotaways” — the top threat to public safety — are down by 99%.
  • Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin: “If Fox were to send me down there right now, I would have trouble finding a single migrant on camera.”
  • CBS immigration reporter Camilo Montoya-Galvez: “Typically, when we go to the U.S./Mexico border, we at least see one group of people who are trying to cross into the U.S. illegally. We did not see a single migrant.”
  • The Wall Street Journal: Border Crossings Grind to Halt as Trump’s Tough Policies Take Hold
  • Bloomberg: US-Bound Migration Plunges 99% Along Panama Jungle Route
  • The Washington Times: Under Trump, border catch-and-release has dropped 99.99% from worst Biden month
  • Los Angeles Times: California-Mexico border, once overwhelmed, now nearly empty.

Adios Comrade Pope Francis the Marxist Pro-Communist Cuba Fraud

/in , , , , , , , , , /by

The world has said its final goodbyes to the Argentinian Communist Pope Francis.

I give President Trump credit for showing his respect to the office of the Pope not so much the fraud Catholic Pope Francis.

Francis, a former bouncer who had half a lung removed years ago, once referred to capitalism as a source of inequality at its best and a killer at its worst.

Perhaps this explains why so many Catholics are registered as socialist democrats with former installed President, the corrupt pro abortion Joe Biden as its biggest political figure in the United States.

This is the same Pope Francis who rebuked publicly to his U.S. bishops President Trumps plans to deport all the criminal illegal immigrants in our republic.

The Pope “warned” Trump that forcing people to leave the United States because of their illegal status deprives them of their inherent dignity and “Will end badly”

He gave no word offering sympathy to all the Americans who fell victims of this illegal immigration assault on our nation.

Pure Marxism ladies and gentlemen at its finest.

Tom Homan fired back reminding the Pope that the Vatican is a city-state surrounded by walls and that Francis should leave border enforcement to his office.

The Pope also stated in 2016, while within the safe confines of the walled in Vatican that anyone who builds walls to keep migrants out is not a Christian.

The Italian government immigration laws are very strict with detentions of up to 18 months of illegal immigrants before they are deported back to their home country.

Let’s not forget when Pope Francis came out and supported same-sex civil unions when he stated

“Homosexual people have a right to be in a family”

Without a doubt his past position on this Satanic gay lifestyle totally contradicts the Catholic Church’s fundamental teachings on this topic.

But then again the Catholic Church also gave blessed sacrament to Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi who both endorsed the execution of pre born babies in the womb.

The good news is that Catholics no longer have to listen to Pope Francis spout his Marxist-inspired “ liberation theology” a socio-religious-satanic movement in Latin America that combines Communism with the Catholic Church.

So as the world leaders say goodbye to the Communist fraud Pope in Rome the Catholic Church will start the process to elect a new guy.

Nothing changes in the world and we continue watch and wait patiently for the return of Jesus Christ to finally clean house and restore order on a planet currently ruled by Satan.

Biden Administration Tried to Replace the Elected Government of Israel

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

Raviv Drucker (left Israeli journalist) and Biden’s people are admitting for the first time what we all knew: the Biden administration tried to replace the elected government of the State of Israel — an act that constitutes an infringement of the state’s sovereignty at the most serious level.

If it is definitively established, in the congressional investigation currently underway, that certain left-wing organizations did indeed receive funds from the government for this purpose, there will be joy here, and above all, they will make them and their managers very happy in Washington.

It will be interesting.

Tamir Morag

WATCH:

The script summary of the video:

“Suspects of undermining the democracy of the State of Israel and U.S. Congress future hearing of two Israeli left leaders.”

“The U.S. Government is sending to two Israeli left leaders invitation of hearing letters for Suspects of undermining the democracy of the State of Israel ( an ally of USA), with funding support from the Biden administration for this Illegal purpose

target.

In the last two years, six Israeli-U.S. groups received these letters from the Chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the House of Representatives Brian Musk. They were told about a deadline to submit all documents.

Eliad Shraga, founder of an Israeli leftist group, and Eran Schwartz, Chairman of “blue amd white“ group, are asking for documents of all the funds that went into their organizations and from which organizations the funds came. They are also being warned not to destroy evidence and received messages. These is called testimony but actually they are complicated investigations.

One of the services of the Israeli FBI (Shabak-Shin Bet) is to avoid this type of funding support, but the Americans are doing this exact job, instead of the “Shin Bet” in the last few years.

What happened here at the demonstration against the Israeli government before the war was political consulting.”

A Christian Response to an Increasingly Violent ‘Assassination Culture’

/in , , , , , , , , , , , /by

In a world where death threats flood phones and vandalism becomes a political statement, the words of Jesus in John 10:10 ring truer than ever: “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.” If we view the “thief” as the destructive forces of the world, the flesh, and the devil, it helps bring the chaos of our society into sharp focus.

We live in a paradoxical age — hyper-connected through technology yet profoundly isolated. Social media’s rise has confined us to digital echo chambers, where global communities and endless streams of information are just a tap away. You could stay holed up in your room and feel plugged into the world. But here’s the catch: this torrent of information is often warped, and far too many of us struggle to separate truth from deception in this digital storm. This isolation breeds a dangerous tribalism, replacing dialogue with division and turning disagreement into enmity.

Rather than bridging differences through open exchange, opposing groups retreat into cliques, shunning engagement. Worse, this herd mentality has fueled a chilling trend: the growing justification of violence to silence dissent, seemingly excusing murder as some kind of a “solution.” While this cuts across divides, the Left has notably embraced this path, as seen in the shocking reality of two assassination attempts on President Donald Trump during his 2024 campaign.

Another chilling example is Luigi Mangione, who murdered UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in December. A few weeks ago, I spontaneously found myself at a random music event in which one of the opening acts (whom I had never heard of) sang a song called “The Rest of Them,” allegedly “inspired” by Mangione’s crime. In a grotesque display, the lyrics brazenly advocated assassination to eliminate ideological foes. It was as shocking as it sounds. And yes, my cue to leave.

The alarming desire to assassinate persists, with a Pennsylvania man recently charged for repeatedly threatening to kill not only Trump but also Elon Musk and Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents. This follows weeks of escalating attacks by enraged liberals targeting Musk’s company, Tesla, through firebombing, scratching, and vandalizing vehicles on both commercial and private property.

The Washington Times reports that death threats have now extended to Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and her family. Federal prosecutors revealed that 24-year-old Aliakbar Mohammed Amin sent her this text: “Prepare to die, you, Tulsi, and everyone you hold dear. America will burn.”

The outlet noted that the death threats started long before Trump’s administration even took office. “The death threats began as soon as Mr. Trump started making nominations,” they wrote. “They targeted Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin, Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins and Rep. Elise Stefanik of New York, who was nominated as ambassador to the United Nations before withdrawing to help bolster the Republican House majority.”

Benjamin Ginsberg, a Johns Hopkins University professor studying political violence, underscored an undeniable truth: violence, though not new, is now erupting into plain view. “Hatred of Trump and the members of the administration is so severe, so intense, that normally sensible people are willing to countenance [violence], even if they themselves wouldn’t do it … directed against their opponents,” he stated. It is worth noting that conservatives are just as capable of using violence as well, it’s just not what we’re seeing.

For instance, a recent survey “found that about half of liberal-leaning Americans could ‘at least somewhat’ justify the assassinations of Mr. Trump and Mr. Musk,” and “more than half of liberals also said destroying Tesla dealerships is acceptable.” The survey was titled, “Assassination Culture: How Burning Teslas and Killing Billionaires Became a Meme Aesthetic for Political Violence.”

The evidence is overwhelming, and it strikes at the core of the issue. These violent acts — assassination attempts, death threats, cultural endorsements of murder — vividly embody what Jesus described in John 10:10. The “thief” — the enemy and the sin we confront — exists solely to steal, kill, and destroy.

As Christians, we have a duty to understand that this chaos — whether online or in our neighborhoods — reflects the depravity of a world lost in sin. This is not merely some societal crisis that will fade away if we just leave it alone. No, this is a spiritual battle that, in one form or another, will persist until the day Jesus returns. In fact, Scripture reminds us that “our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against… the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms” (Ephesians 6:12). The lies spread through digital platforms, the hatred fueling vandalism and threats, the grotesque celebration of murder in songs like “The Rest of Them” have the thief’s fingerprints plastered all over them.

What is the enemy doing through these acts? He is stealing, killing, and destroying. That’s all he knows how to do. And as a result, the world that he rules follows the same tactics. However, my aim here is not merely to draw attention to the brokenness we’re painfully aware of. Rather, it’s to call us, as followers of Jesus Christ — the true and sovereign Lord — to the response He commands.

Jesus’s words in John 10:10 don’t merely expose the problem; they proclaim the divine and only solution. “I came that they may have life and have it abundantly,” He declared. This, dear reader, is our unshakable hope in a world fraying at the edges. The abundant life Christ offers is anchored in the truth of God’s word, the boundless love of Jesus, and the certain hope of His eternal kingdom. Through salvation in Christ, this life is ours — eternal in scope, overflowing with glory, and available to us even now as we await its fullness.

Living this out means rejecting the world’s ways. In an age of misinformation, we seek discernment through prayer and Scripture, testing every spirit against the truth (1 John 4:1). Where hatred justifies violence, we are called to “love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you” (Matthew 5:44). In a world that denies God, we proclaim His truth boldly. As “ambassadors for Christ” (2 Corinthians 5:20), we must immerse ourselves in God’s word to counter lies, engage our churches to break isolation, and stand firm in love, hating evil and clinging to good (Romans 12:9). Above all, beloved, pray fervently.

Pray against the wickedness around us and the people who seek to do harm. Prayer is our weapon, not just for personal strength but for the healing of a fractured nation. The thief may prowl, but our God has already overcome. The violence and division we see are real, but they do not have the final say. Jesus’s abundant life — overflowing with grace, truth, and eternal purpose — is ours to embrace, untouchable by any thief.

Let us cling to Jesus’s promise, shining as light in a darkened world, and boldly proclaim God’s truth to a society dead in sin, desperately needing the abundant life only Christ provides.

Ed Dept Opens Probe Into University Of California, Berkeley Over ‘Deep Involvements With Chinese Entities’

/in , , , , , , , , , /by

The Department of Education (ED) opened an investigation into the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) Friday over its reported ties to Chinese sources, the Daily Caller News Foundation has learned.

ED claims the university has failed to report “hundreds of millions of dollars” it received from foreign government over a span of several years, prompting the department to initiate a records request, the DCNF was told. The foreign funding sparks concerns the school has “deep involvements with Chinese entities” and may be sharing information about research and “important technologies.”

The Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in 2023 found “grave research security concerns” with UC Berkeley due to the school’s partnership with the CCP-controlled Tsinghua University and the Shenzhen government.

President Donald Trump on Wednesday signed an executive order requiring American universities to be more transparent about any foreign donations they accept. The order calls on Education Secretary Linda McMahon to seek information from universities about the source and purpose of foreign funding and make such details available to the public and also tasks the U.S. Attorney General with enforcing the disclosures and holding schools accountable.

UC Berkeley did not immediately respond to the DCNF’s request for comment.

All The Worst Kinds of People

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

ALL THE WORST KINDS OF PEOPLE

We all know that Trump has frozen the assets of the most prestigious (lol) Ivy League universities over their commitment to explicitly racist admissions and administrative policies.

To drill down into that a bit: There’s a tiered system in these universities that’s based solely on race and identity. They don’t even try to hide it. And it persists from admissions to graduation.

Recently, schools like Harvard bathed in the applause of the ruling class Acela Elites when they “stood up” to Trump’s demands.

Not to digress, but just in brief, those demands include:

  • Disempowering student body organizations, faculty and administrators “more dedicated to activism than scholarship”
  • Merit-based hiring reform that “ceases all preference” for race, color, creed, sex or national origin
  • Merit-based admissions reform that does likewise
  • Conduct an on “viewpoint diversity” in each department
  • Reform departments that are most disruptive to student life and scholarship
  • Discontinue DEI
  • Also, please stop giving foreigners access to national secrets, you dolts

There are a few others, but for the most part they just scream common sense. Don’t be institutionally racist! Advance your studies! Find the best people for the job! Discipline troublemakers! And finally, in case you didn’t hear it the first time, don’t be racist!

The sheer umbrage of these demands prompted Harvard to stand up and say no. We are committed to hyper-racial neo-marxist ideology, chronic underperformance, stultifying groupthink, and extrajudicial punishments for anyone who dares buck our system of oppression.

Good for Harvard! Except … the bill is steep — $2.2 billion for Harvard and $1 billion for Yale.

But they do have those giant endowments they’ve been sitting on, right?

And thus comes the most delicious part.

Yale’s attempting to liquidate $6 billion in private equity holdings and Harvard another $1 billion. To normal people, like you and me, Dear Reader, these numbers might as well be imaginary.

I assure you, however, it’ll have an effect on the market.

Universities don’t tend to disclose which firms they do their business with, but some of the most prominent private equity firms in the business are likely to be affected.

What happens when a PE firm loses a significant percentage of its portfolio? All its holdings go down. People start to get skeptical about their decisions. Maybe more people transfer their investments to more … stable … actors.

It can cause a cascading effect.

Or … they’re going to call Trump.

Can we pause right here just to revel in the deliciousness of these people taking a shot in the groin over refusing to meet the most basic demands?

Ivy League elites and their snotty students. High-powered, private equity douches who think they’re “smart money” when in reality they’re just a flock of terrified birds. Both groups have in some parts sold themselves and Americans out to foreign buyers.

In other words, all the worst kinds of people.

It reminds me in some ways of the Gamestop squeeze a few years ago that saw retail investors nuke the bets of several prominent, multibillion-dollar funds.

This is the follow up. The Trump squeeze. Donny is back on campus. He’s got a new shillelagh. It’s got 77 million names etched into it, and I guarantee you very few of those names got into either Harvard or Yale.

Back to the call.

If these sales start to look more serious, and it’s likely, Trump could be receiving calls from these PE firms. And that, ladies and gents, is Trump’s side door.

He kicked in academia’s front door, but now he’ll be coming in through the windows.

These calls give Trump the opportunity to double down. A la, ‘Hey, guys, listen, these aren’t insane demands. Go back to your clients (Harvard, Yale) and tell them it’s in everyone’s interest to lighten up a bit.’

Weaponizing the greed of terrible financiers against the lunacy of uppity academic elitists.

That’s one little battle I look forward to seeing!

Federal Officials Take TDA-Harboring Judge, Wife Into Custody

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

Former New Mexico Democrat Judge Jose “Joel” Cano and his wife were reportedly taken into custody Thursday by federal officials after being accused of harboring a Tren de Aragua (TdA) gang member in their home.

KFOX14 captured video Thursday afternoon showing federal officials placing Cano and his wife Nancy into custody as U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers executed a search and probable cause arrest warrant at their Las Cruces home. The video shows officials wearing Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) vests detaining the couple near a set of vehicles, with both placed in handcuffs.

In March, Cano resigned from his position after 23-year-old Venezuelan national Cristhian Ortega-Lopez was arrested by authorities, according to the Albuquerque Journal. Ortega-Lopez had reportedly met Nancy Cano after illegally entering the U.S. in 2023 near Eagle Pass, Texas and later accepted her offer to stay in a “casita” behind their home, the outlet reported.

Leading up to Cano’s resignation, the Department of Justice said federal authorities had executed search warrants related to unlawful firearm possession and other offenses involving four illegal migrants in the state — Ortega-Lopez among them.

A spokesperson for ICE said to KFOX14 that both Cano and his wife had been taken into custody during the raid of their home, with HSI agents telling the outlet that both face evidence-tampering charges.

Ortega-Lopez is accused of being an illegal migrant in possession of firearms as well as having affiliations with TdA. Official charges against Cano and his wife have not been officially released.

The FBI was unable to provide the Daily Caller News Foundation with any further information due to the ongoing nature of the investigation.

HSI and ICE did not immediately respond to the DCNF’s request for comment.

Most Dem-Voting Federal Bureaucrats Say They Would Disobey ‘Legal’ Orders From Trump, Poll Shows

/in , , , , , , , , , /by

A new poll found that a majority of federal employees who previously voted Democrat are geared up to act against the interest of their elected boss, President Donald Trump.

The data, released Thursday by the Napolitan Institute, shows that 76% of voters for former Vice President Kamala Harris working under Trump say they will “resist” his plans, while 75% say they would hypothetically disobey, or “do what [they] thought was best,” when given a legal order that they disagreed with. The Napolitan Institute said the numbers show a “deep partisan divide in the Administrative State” as Trump moves to bring the numerous halls of government in alignment with his agenda.

“Our research confirms that the Administrative State is not composed of thoughtful, nonpartisan experts who are making neutral decisions for voters,” Napolitan Institute founder Scott Rasmussen said in a press release. “The deep partisan divide within the federal bureaucracy and the shifting public opinion present significant challenges for the current administration.”

The survey asked respondents to “imagine that you were the head of a federal government agency” and “President Trump gave you an order that was legal but you believed was bad policy.”

“Would you follow the president’s order or do what you thought was best?” The questionnaire asked.

The results showed that 75% of bureaucrats who voted for Harris for president would “do what [they] thought was best,” in regards to Trump’s orders, while 9% were unsure and the rest would obey him. This contrasted with 80% of Trump-voting officials who said they would follow the president despite their disagreements, with 2% saying they were unsure and 18% saying they would not.

Harris supporters in the government also said their own “political efforts” will be to either “strongly resist” or “somewhat resist” Trump’s agenda by 56% and 16% said they would “neither support nor resist,” the Napolitan Institute found.

The group surveyed 500 officials “living in the National Capitol Region and earning at least $75,000 annually,” noting a margin of error of 4 percent.

Trump’s efforts to bring the bureaucracy to heel included a day-one hiring freeze “throughout the executive branch,” payouts for federal workers, funding cuts for left-wing priorities like transgender ideology as well as the creation of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which has cleaned house at several agencies.

“The silver lining is that with such high levels of chaos in this bureaucratic ‘civil war’, there may be an opening for the common sense voice of the American people to rise above the political noise and once again become the shaping force of the nation’s dialogue,” Rasmussen.

Earth Day Reminder: Green Groups Linked To World’s Top Polluter

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

Some prominent green groups — including ones that play up Earth Day — also happen to have financial connections to the government of China, the nation that pollutes the planet more than any other.

The Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), Energy Foundation China (EFC), Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI) and other entities that fund climate initiatives in the U.S. have direct or indirect relationships with the Chinese state, according to The Washington Examiner. Many environmental organizations celebrated Earth Day on Tuesday, even while some of the leading groups in the green movement have cozied up to China, the world’s leading emitter and a prolific polluter of the oceans.

For example, NRDC maintains an office in Beijing that is registered with the Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau and operates under the supervision of China’s National Forestry and Grassland Administration, the Examiner reported. Several senior staff members working for NRDC’s China office formerly worked for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), including one adviser who worked for a Chinese agency suspected of targeting American corporations for intellectual property theft.

NRDC advised its followers to “let Earth Day be a reminder that we have a future to win” in a Tuesday social media post, lamenting in a separate post that it’s “not quite the case anymore” that “people [stand] together across party lines for cleaner air, water and a healthier future.”

“The NRDC is an independent, non-profit, public-interest group working to protect public health and the environment. We work in China for one reason: there’s not a single global environmental problem that the world can confront, unless China is part of the fix,” NRDC spokesman Bob Deans said in a statement shared with the Daily Caller News Foundation. “We work alongside the people and institutions in China that are searching for solutions and progress. That’s what our work there is all about. When developing our institutional positions—in the United States or anywhere else in the world—we rely on our U.S.-based senior leadership and board of independent trustees, and no one else. We do the bidding of no government, in this country, or any other.”

Additionally, NRDC has been a major grantee of the Energy Foundation China (EFC), a now-independent group that was once a part of the Energy Foundation, according to the Examiner. Zou Ji, the president and CEO of EFC, used to be a top official for China’s National Center for Climate Change Strategy and International Cooperation, a state-run organization that helps the Chinese government participate in global climate change initiatives.

EFC is directly involved in efforts to help the Chinese government execute its climate agenda, according to the Examiner.

EFC has also routed hundreds of thousands of dollars to RMI, a U.S. outfit that works “with the U.S. Congress and federal agencies to develop and follow through on ambitious and beneficial electrification policies,” according to its website. RMI teamed up with the Chinese government to publish a 2013 report addressing a global energy transition to favor intermittent renewables like solar and wind, the supply chains for which China happens to dominate globally.

Wei Ding, a Chinese businessman, served on RMI’s board as of at least 2022, according to RMI’s tax filings for that year and the Examiner. Ding formerly chaired an investment bank owned in part by the Chinese government, and a number of other RMI staff members have worked for the Chinese state in various capacities in the past as well, according to the Examiner. Like NRDC, RMI has a presence in China to complement its U.S. operations.

“RMI works in China because reducing emissions there is critical,” a RMI spokesperson said in a statement to the DCNF. “RMI shares its independent research and analysis with governments, policymakers, corporations and fellow nonprofits to accelerate the adoption of market-based solutions for clean energy.”

Notably, RMI received a $750,000 grant from the Biden administration in 2023 to advance its electric vehicle (EV) agenda, and RMI also provided partial funding for a 2022 study purporting to demonstrate that gas stove use and childhood asthma are linked. Several media outlets promoted the study, and the Biden administration indicated it may move to crack down on gas stoves in January 2023 before nominally retreating from the idea.

Additionally, several major left-of-center U.S. grantmakers that support climate advocacy also have financial relationships with China, such as the Ford Foundation, which believes that natural resource extraction will “dispossess and marginalize land-connected communities, driving inequality and injustice,” according to the Examiner and the foundation’s website. The Ford Foundation has poured millions of dollars into China’s “Belt and Road Initiative,” a global infrastructure development effort that critics have characterized as a thinly-disguised instrument of debt trap diplomacy.

Similarly, the Gates Foundation — the charitable organization of billionaire Microsoft founder Bill Gates — pumped nearly $12 million into various parts of the Chinese government in 2023, according to the Examiner. The foundation works around the world to “help people in the world’s poorest countries thrive in a climate where droughts, floods, and heat waves are becoming more severe and more frequent” in light of climate change, according to Gates’ website.

EFC, the Ford Foundation and the Gates Foundation did not respond to requests for comment.

At its core, the Democrat’s rage and projection are a function of their own self loathing and failures

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

“At its core, leftist rage and projection is a function of their self loathing and failures. It only destroys and never creates value, only misery, until in the end it destroys itself.” — Sam J. Sugar

We are witnessing the decline and fall of the Democrat Party and it is because they know that they are in a deep hole politcially, but just can’t seem to stop digging.

The Democrats are the party of the rich, of the homosexuals and sodomites and now have embraced drug cartel members as more important to defend than we the people. They have abandoned God and God has abandoned them.

They have:

  1. Attacked their enemies, the MAGA Patriots on January 6th, 2021 with premeditation. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard declassified the Biden Administration’s “Strategic Implementation Plan For Countering Domestic Terrorism” on April 16th, 2025. The fifteen-page document details “four pillars” of domestic terrorism response, as assessed by intelligence and law enforcement in March 2021. How exactly did the administration plan to accomplish these lofty goals? By, it appears, increasing mass surveillance of the American people. Read more here.
  2. Biden announced the creation of the nation’s first “National Strategy for Countering Domestic Terrorism” in June 2021. The strategy, as explained to the public, justified itself by dual reasoning: a “resurgence” of racially motivated violence, attacks against government institutions, and associated individuals. Among the latter, according to the document, were the January 6, 2021, protests which culminated in protesters occupying the Capitol.
  3. Attacked their political opponents using the Justice System as a weapon. President Donald J. Trump and thousands of Americans have been tried, convicted and declared felons by corrupt judges.

Also unprecedented was the Biden administration’s campaign against political rivals under the guise of fighting domestic terrorism.

Since losing the 2024 election the Democrats have take a dramatic turn for the worse.

They have:

  1. Called for resistance in the halls of Congress, in the courts and in the streets. The statement “resistance in the halls of Congress, in the courts, and in the streets” refers to the various forms of opposition and challenges to policies or actions of the Trump administration, particularly in the context of political and social movements. This resistance can manifest in legislative action in Congress, legal challenges in the courts, and through protests and mobilization in the streets.
  2. Used district court judges appointed primarily by Obama and Biden to take away the Executive Powers of the President of the United States of America. These rogue judges have ruled on every action taken by the Trump administation to make America safe, prosperous and great again. These judges have ignored the U.S. Constitution and its speration of Powers. To date the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled in favor of the President but there are many more cases to be adjudicated.
  3. Created violence in the streets across America, on college campuses and even ploted multiple assassination attemps against the Presiden, his cabinet and other government officials.
  4. Attacked citizens who own Tesla vehicles and Tesla dealerships using a variety of means including bombs, molotov cocktails, and defacing or destroying Tesla vehicles.
  5. Come out against cutting government fraud, waste and abuses in the courts and in the halls of Congress. Including voting against bills that would protect the American people against such fraud, waste and abuse in every department of government.
  6. Voted against votor IDs, paper ballots, same day reporting of the results of elections and cleaning up voter roles of dead people and criminal illegal aliens.
  7. Actively supported MS-13 gang bangers and ignored American hostages held by Hamas in Gaza.
  8. Continue to support radical Islamic terrorists and drug cartels over the safety and security of the American people.

And the list of rage and projections is not only supported but amplified by the legacy media. A prime example is the defense of Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia as a Marylander. This even led to Maryland Democrat Sen. Chris Van Hollen who met with the now deported criminal illegal alien, and MS13 gang leader Abrego Garcia in El Salvador on Thursday, April 17th, 2025. They sat and had margaritas together like they were members of the same MS13 cartel family.

That meeting led to this video being posted on X: Must watch DeMS-13

The Democrat party is no longer the party of Thomas Jefferson or John Fitzgerald Kennedy. That party has died long ago and is in it’s final death spiral.

The American people, thank God, have woken up and are now fighting back. They are fighting back peacefully, using their God given right to free speech.

The American people re-elected as their President Donald J. Trump for a reason. That reason is to fundametally transform American back to greatness and glory under God.

The reckoning for the DeMS13 is here. It will be the end of them and their followers.

America to fix what DeMS13 has broken will take POTUS 47, 48, 49 and 50 to restore our rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness,
