The Bodycam Presidency
Posted By: Imright, 4/12/2025 9:06:28 AM
Michigan governor and would-be 2028 presidential hopeful Gretchen Whitmer angered fellow Democrats on April 9th when she travelled to the White House as scheduled to meet privately with President Trump. The presumptive purpose for the meeting was to discuss tariffs and other Michigan-related matters. That’s not how it turned out, however. It wasn’t a private meeting at all. Instead, Whitmer was forced to the periphery of the Oval Office as the president signed executive orders and presided over one of his now routine media scrums. (Snip) In his first term, President Trump might have invited someone like Whitmer to his office and actually had that private meeting,

The owner of a New Jersey sushi restaurant, who was previously convicted of spying for China, has once again found himself in trouble, this time in the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Despite his conviction, the individual was released back onto the streets, raising serious questions about the effectiveness of the immigration enforcement system and the dangers posed by individuals with ties to foreign adversaries.Ming Xi Zhang, known as “Sushi John,” was taken into custody by ICE on March 24— nearly one year after he was convicted of acting as an unregistered agent of the Chinese government and sentenced to three years probation.
Letitia James has “Daddy issues”. The New York State Attorney General who hounded President Trump appears to have been acting out a vendetta against her own father. No rational explanation accounts for her reckless attacks on Trump, especially given her own checkered history of possibly illegal real estate transactions.
James’s father, Robert James, was born in South Carolina in 1916. He married Letitia’s mother, Nellie, and set out to build a future in New York City. They had eight children together, including Letitia. For many years, the sprawling family shared just 1,100 square feet of living space in a 2-bedroom 2-bath rental apartment at 44 Butler Place in Brooklyn.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth fired back at House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries Sunday after the New York Democrat called him and other Trump appointees "Dumb Effing Individuals," a play on the DEI acronym, in an X video on Saturday.
"That's how far they have fallen. It's astonishing, not surprising," Hegseth told Fox News' Maria Bartiromo.
"Of course, they don't like the fact that we're ripping DEI out of the military and making it colorblind and merit-based." (Photo) "If their whole strategy is… minute-long videos on TikTok to call us names while we secure the southern border, kick out Chinese influence, revive the warrior culture inside our military, that's why
White House physician Sean Barbabella pointed to President Trump’s “frequent victories in golf events” as evidence of the commander-in-chief’s “excellent health” and “robust” neurological condition in a memo on his physical examination results.
In a glowing health memo released Sunday that detailed very few health ailments against the 78-year-old commander in chief, Barbabella extolled Trump’s physician condition.
“President Trump exhibits excellent cognitive and physical health and is fully fit to execute the duties of the Commander-in-Chief and Head of State,” Barbabella wrote in the memo released by the White House. (Photo)
Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro and his family were forced to evacuate the governor’s mansion after an arsonist set it on fire overnight while they were sleeping, he announced.

Kyiv Ukraine– At least 32 people have been killed in a Russian missile strike on the Ukrainian city of Sumy on Sunday, officials said.
Two ballistic missiles struck the heart of the city at around 10:15 a.m. as people gathered to celebrate Palm Sunday, according to officials. Images posted from the scene on official channels showed lines of black body bags lying on the side of the road, while more bodies were seen wrapped in foil blankets among the debris. Video footage also showed fire crews as they fought to extinguish the shells of burnt-out cars among the rubble from damaged buildings. “On this bright Palm Sunday, our community has suffered
When does rank illiberalism become "freedom?" When mainstream press outlets need another way to proclaim the orange man bad. The Economist did just that on Sunday morning, releasing a think piece entitled "Europe Is the Actual Land of the Free Now."
The picture used to head the article? A cartoon of an EU-flagged boat hauling the Statue of Liberty away with a sign reading "gone to Europe" on its empty pedestal. Get it? The United States is no longer a democracy, so our European betters have come and repossessed it, signifying their place as the true providers of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
ICE Boston, alongside DEA and ATF agents, arrested Gilberto Avila-Jara, a 64-year-old illegal Ecuadorian national, on April 1 in Lawrence, Massachusetts.
Avila-Jara faces over twenty heinous charges of sex crimes against a minor, including indecent assault and battery on a child under 14, forcible rape of a child, and aggravated statutory rape.
This monster has been preying on America’s children, and yet, thanks to Democrat sanctuary city policies, he was allowed to slip through the cracks for far too long.
According to ICE, Avila-Jara first sneaked into the U.S. near San Ysidro, California, in 1996,
At her press briefing on Friday, April 11, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt issued a forceful statement regarding the coverup of former president Joe Biden’s health by the Biden administration and most journalists, including White House correspondents.
While President Trump underwent his yearly physical at Walter Reed Medical Center Friday, a White House correspondent asked Leavitt,
“Is [President Trump] considering using his executive powers to bring any greater transparency [to Joe Biden’s health]?”
Leavitt responded,
“There was certainly a lack of transparency from the former president,
In an ongoing effort to curb illegal immigration, the Trump administration has quietly begun invalidating Social Security numbers of illegal immigrants who are in the U.S. unlawfully, effectively pushing them to "self-deport." This action is part of a broader effort to crack down on illegal immigration and ensure that only those who follow legal procedures can access the benefits and rights associated with a Social Security number.This week, the Trump administration instructed the Social Security Administration (SSA) to add over 6,300 illegal immigrants to its list of deceased individuals, effectively blocking their ability to work.
I remember very well that day in 2015, Donald Trump came down that golden escalator in Trump Tower to announce that he was running for President of the United States. He had run before; some of us remember his 2000 run on the Reform Party ticket, which he abandoned in February of that year. In 2015, he was serious, and he won, in no small part because of his slogan, which became his campaign theme. Like all good political slogans, it was pithy, packed a punch, was easy to shout at rallies, and it sparked a connection with millions of Americans: Make America Great Again.
Augusta, Ga. — History awaits Rory McIlroy.
A career Grand Slam sits a tantalizing 18 holes away.
Sometime before 3 p.m. Sunday, McIlroy will stand on the first tee in the final pairing of the day at Augusta National on the precipice of history, with a chance to become only the sixth player ever to win all four major championships. (Photo) He’s won two PGA Championships, one U.S. Open and one British Open. The Masters has been the elusive one, like the girl you’ve been asking out for years who keeps rejecting you. This week is McIlroy’s 11th attempt at completing the career Slam by winning his first Masters.

One thing Americans can be sure of: At any given time, somewhere out there, a government decision-maker is finding new and inventive ways of flushing your hard-earned cash.
The latest: Government watchdog OpenTheBooks found that the feds spent an eye-popping $4.6 billion on new furniture and decorations for government buildings since October 2020, even though only half the federal workforce was consistently showing up for work in person as of last year.
In 2023, the Government Accountability Office found that 17 of 24 federal agencies used 25% or less of their headquarters’ buildings.
Former Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen claimed Friday on CNN’s “Anderson Cooper 360” that President Donald Trump’s tariffs are doing “immense damage to our economy.”
Yellen said, “This is the worst self-inflicted policy wound I’ve ever seen in my career inflicted on our economy. The Trump tariff plans are doing immense damage to our economy. You can see that in the stock market, in the impact of these tariffs are expected to have on American households. And we’re even beginning to see what looks like a flight away from dollar-based assets in the financial markets, which is a really scary development.”
Cooper said, “How long?

Prince Harry’s security woes appear to be taking an emotional toll on the royal. As the legal battle over his right to police protection in the U.K. intensifies, Harry’s concerns about his safety have been brought to the forefront. [Snip] While Harry fought for security to protect his family in the U.K., his wife enjoyed a night out in New York City. The Duchess of Sussex arrived in the Big Apple in a four-vehicle motorcade.

What would the left do if they weren't screaming about something?
They could be celebrating the rescue of an American Ksenia Karelina, who had been wrongfully detained by the Russians -- until the Trump team got her out. Or inflation dropping to its lowest point in four years.
But instead, Friday's meltdown involved portraits at the White House.
The White House announced the addition of this powerful moment when President Donald Trump -- after being shot in the ear -- stood up amid the Secret Service agents and shouted, "Fight, fight, fight!"
ESPN hot-take artist Stephen A. Smith says he must consider a presidential run because he is ” disgusted” with both parties.
“I have no choice, because I’ve had elected officials — and I’m not going to give their names — coming up to me,” Smith told ABC’s Jonathan Karl on Sunday. “I’ve had folks who are pundits come up to me. I’ve had folks that got a lot of money, billionaires and others, that have talked to me about exploratory committees and things of that nature. I’m not a politician. I’ve never had a desire to be a politician.”
Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has announced that effective May 7, 2025, all adult U.S. citizens must present a REAL ID-compliant form of identification or a valid passport to board domestic flights and access federal facilities.
This enforcement marks the culmination of the REAL ID Act, originally passed in 2005 following the 9/11 Commission’s recommendations to enhance the integrity and security of state-issued identification documents.
On December 17, 2018, President Trump signed the REAL ID Act Modification for Freely Associated States Act, Public Law 115-323.

In 2023, woke Bud Light Vice-President of Marketing Alissa Heinerscheid made a disastrous decision that canned her career and coined a new phrase for destroying a brand. No one wants to be the next “Bud Light.”
Heinerscheid greenlighted a partnership with a transgender influencer, Dylan Mulvaney, that led to massive pushback from the public and a widespread boycott that cost the company, by some estimates, a staggering $1.4 billion.
After a leave of absence, Heinerscheid was out at the company.
Heinerscheid appears to have recently updated her LinkedIn profile, announcing a new role, Team Business Operations, at the Saudi-funded LIV Golf.
Tehran has played this game before: Agree to talks. Make vague promises. Extract sanctions relief. Then quietly continue nuclear development under the radar. This formula has worked for more than two decades. Right now, the only reason Iran is talking is to stall, to promise just enough to prevent America from striking it -- "We are almost there!" -- to keep its regime and avoid seeing its uranium centrifuges and enrichment sites blasted to rubble. The regime does not want war -- but it also cannot accept total nuclear disarmament.

The Left doesn’t know what a woman is. Actually, that’s not quite true. For them, a woman is whatever mentally ill men say it is, (Snip)
Now we’ve discovered, according to the Network Contagion Research Institute (NCRI), many Americans are stark raving mad. Their study reveals what they call “assassination culture,” an acceptance of premeditated murder for political purposes.
The NCRI study links this cultural shift to the December 2024 assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson by Luigi Mangione. In the aftermath, researchers observed a disturbing surge of viral memes glorifying Mangione, which effectively turned him into a folk hero among certain corners of the internet.
