Former first lady Michelle Obama voiced deep concerns about what’s happening to migrants under President Trump’s aggressive deportation policy, railing against its impact on her home city of Chicago. During a conversation about race and fear, the former first lady acknowledged that she has a pretty protected lifestyle, while fretting that everyday people living outside her bubble might be suffering. “In this current climate, for me it’s what’s happening to immigrants,” Obama, 61, told “On Purpose with Jay Shetty” during a podcast episode that dropped Monday when asked her most “recent test of fear.” “It’s not the fear for myself anymore,”

Donald Trump totally humiliated disgraced Democrat Gov. Gretchen Whitmer in a made-for-TV moment in Michigan.
While speaking to Michigan National Guardsmen on Tuesday, the president spotted Whitmer in the crowd.
'I want to thank Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer," Trump said.
'You know, I'm not supposed to do that. She's a Democrat. They say, don't do that, don't have her here. I said, 'no, she's going to be here... she's done a very good job.'
He then called her up in what appeared to be a spur-of-the-moment decision.
'Well, I hadn't planned to speak...' she replied in a cringeworthy moment. 'But on behalf of all the men and women who have served...
Treasury Dept. Rejects Over $300 Million

in Improper Payment Requests Using New
Verification System 2 replies
The U.S. Department of the Treasury has blocked its first improper payment requests using a new automated payment verification system spearheaded by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
DOGE announced Tuesday that Treasury identified and rejected $334 million in improper payment requests due to missing budget codes, invalid budget codes, and budget codes with no authorization.
Invalid budget codes include budgets that had already been fully spent. Unauthorized codes refer to payments not linked to the budget.
Prior to DOGE’s intervention, the Treasury’s accounting code was optional for the $4.7 Trillion in payments that go out each year, making traceability almost impossible
Something is “very, very wrong” in Beijing right now, according to foreign policy expert Gordon Chang, who is signaling more “end-of-regime conduct” coming out of Xi Jinping’s China.
“At a time when China needs friends because it’s not selling goods to the US, it is going out of its way to antagonize not just the Philippines, not just Taiwan, but also South Korea and Australia,” Chang, a senior fellow with the Gatestone Institute, said on “Mornings with Maria” Monday.
“This shows that… this is end-of-regime conduct, because Xi Jinping, he can’t appear to be giving in to the US,” he added.
President Trump’s promised renovation of the White House Rose Garden will begin in a “couple of weeks,” chief of staff Susie Wiles told The Post Tuesday.
The president has been keen on revamping the executive mansion to be more functional — and to adhere more closely to his personal style.
Trump has already redone the Oval Office, adding gold embellishments from Mar-a-Lago and lining the walls with portraits of presidents — but has also made plans to pave the grass portion of the Rose Garden and add a ballroom.
“He’s not going to pave over the Rose Garden. The Rose Garden will look exactly as it does,” Wiles clarified
WASHINGTON — Elon Musk is no longer physically working from the White House, The Post has learned.
Musk, the world’s richest man, is preparing to transition out of his official role with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which is based a short walk from the Oval Office, but his departure from in-person work has not previously been reported.
“Instead of meeting with him in person, I’m talking to him on the phone, but it’s the same net effect,” White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles told The Post in an extensive interview
The first 100 days of President Donald Trump’s second administration have revealed at least one unmistakable truth.
In short, the federal judiciary poses a serious threat to the freedom of the American people.
On Monday, according to The Washington Times, the U.S. Supreme Court announced that it would not take up a case involving a challenge to a sweeping and patently unconstitutional California gun-control law.
Incredibly, California law bans gun shows on state property, including fairgrounds.
The plaintiffs in B&L Productions v. Gavin Newsom had asked SCOTUS to provide relief by blocking the law — already upheld by the notoriously liberal 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals — and then hearing arguments. But
Senior Chinese General Goes Missing

Gen. He Weidong, one of China’s highest-ranking military officers, missed the latest in a string of important meetings on Friday. The general has not been seen in public since March 11.
He, 67, climbed steadily through the ranks of the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) during his 45-year military career, accumulating influence in the Chinese Communist Party as he went. He commanded both the Eastern and Western Theaters before becoming a member of the all-powerful Politburo in 2022.
He is currently second vice chairman of the Central Military Commission (CMC), the top leadership body of the PLA. This makes him the second highest-ranking military officer in China, behind only
In the first 100 days of President Donald Trump’s second term, the State Department revoked the visas of 4,000 foreign students, 90 percent of whom have criminal records, the State Department confirmed to Fox News Digital.
“Our visa system has lacked oversight and accountability,” a senior State Department official told the outlet. “Over the past 100 days, the Trump Administration has worked to fix a broken system.”
A source additionally told the outlet that Secretary Marco Rubio “has led the State Department to take a surgical vetting approach to ensure individuals in America as visitors are abiding by our laws.”

The Trump White House is amazing. They know how to outmaneuver, humiliate, and expose the legacy press at every turn. They lined the White House property with illegal aliens they’ve apprehended, which would be present for every media hit the major outlets have outside the briefing room. To combat this, some outlets, like CNN, have blurred the faces of the criminal scum. This reaction, however, is not shocking. It's very predictable, especially for a virulently anti-Trump network like CNN.
Federal prosecutors are accusing an Iraqi national of intentionally voting in the 2020 presidential election, the latest example of a non-citizen unlawfully participating in federal elections.
Akeel Abdul Jamiel — a 45-year-old Iraqi man who is not a citizen of the United States — knowingly voted on or around Nov. 3, 2020, in the presidential elections held that year in Saratoga County, New York, according to federal court documents. The accusation follows a renewed push by Republican lawmakers to pass legislation that would require individuals to provide proof of citizenship to vote in federal elections. (RELA
David Horowitz R.I.P.

On behalf of the David Horowitz Freedom Center, we are very saddened to announce the passing of the Center’s founder, David Horowitz. After a lengthy battle with cancer, David passed yesterday at the age of 86.
The Freedom Center’s founder and guiding force was a relentless conservative warrior who survived a previous brush with death (chronicled in his book Mortality and Faith), confrontations with the Black Panthers, campus radicals, government investigations, death threats, and hate campaigns, some led by his former friends and allies, without ever considering giving up or letting up.
Four House Democrats who raced to El Salvador to stand up for a deported illegal migrant with alleged criminal ties stayed in a luxury hotel with panoramic views of the country’s greenery, the Daily Caller News Foundation has learned.
Democratic Reps. Maxwell Frost of Florida, Robert Garcia of California, Maxine Dexter of Oregon and Yassamin Ansari of Arizona traveled to the capital city of San Salvador to advocate for the release of reputed MS-13 gangbanger Kilmar Abrego Garcia on April 21. They stayed at the Hilton San Salvador, a luxury property situated against a picturesque backdrop of the capital city’s volcano, a source familiar with the members’ accommodations told the DCNF.

Canada’s Liberal Party won a fourth consecutive election, giving a mandate to former central banker Mark Carney after a campaign in which he pledged to boost economic growth and stand up to US President Donald Trump in a trade war. Liberal candidates were leading or elected in 135 of the 343 seats, ahead of the Conservative Party with 88 as of 10:14 p.m. Ottawa time. The Liberals will secure enough seats to try to form a government, but it’s still unclear whether they’ll win a majority or be forced to work with other parties to pass legislation, according to projections from major TV networks.
Disturbing video has captured the moment a massive brawl broke out among Carnival Cruise ship passengers in Texas — resulting in more than a dozen people being banned from the cruise liner for life.
The violence erupted as scores of passengers were disembarking from the Carnival Jubilee when it docked in Galveston on Saturday following a week-long Caribbean jaunt, according to footage shared on social media.
“It went down this morning,” said Trelle Ray, who shared the clip on Facebook.
The footage showed multiple passengers barging past barriers to trade blows.
At one point, a man was shoved to the floor before a handful of others started violently pummeling him.

Biden’s Decline: ‘We Should Have Done Better’ 33 replies
While accepting an award at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner on Saturday, Axios reporter Alex Thompson acknowledged that he and other members of the mainstream media failed to properly report on President Biden’s declining mental acuity.
“Being truth tellers also means telling the truth about ourselves,” Thompson said as he accepted the Aldo Beckman Award for Overall Excellence in White House Coverage. “We, myself included, missed a lot of this story.”
“President Biden’s decline and its cover-up by the people around him is a reminder that every White House, regardless of party, is capable of deception,” he added.
“Some people trust us less because of it,”
Maria Teresa Kumar, the CEO of Voto Latino, told MSNBC on Monday morning that journalists reporting from the White House lawn should "blur" the mugshots of suspected deported illegal immigrant criminals on posters put up by the Trump administration.
MSNBC's Jonathan Lemire reported: "The White House has put up about 100 posters of what they say are unauthorized immigrants who have been arrested for violent crimes." "What’s particularly noteworthy about this location is it is right directly behind the positions where TV correspondents do their hits from the White House lawn.

From the stage at the New Hampshire Democratic Party’s McIntyre-Shaheen 100 Club Dinner on Sunday, Gov. JB Pritzker, D-Ill., urged “mass protests … mobilization” and “disruption” so that Republicans “cannot know a moment of peace.”
“Never before in my life have I called for mass protests, for mobilization, for disruption. But I am now,” Pritzker said.
“These Republicans cannot know a moment of peace,” Pritzker said. “They have to understand that we will fight their cruelty with every megaphone and microphone that we have. We must castigate them on a soapbox and then punish them at the ballot box.”
On Monday, a House Democrat introduced seven articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump, kicking off a bid that has virtually no chance of succeeding in the Republican-led Congress.
The impeachment resolution from Rep. Shri Thanedar (D-MI) accuses Trump of “high crimes and misdemeanors” over alleged constitutional violations related to taxpayer funds, deportations, tariffs, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) effort led by Elon Musk, retaliation against the press, and others.
“Donald Trump has repeatedly demonstrated that he is unfit to serve as President and represents a clear and present danger to our nation’s constitution and our democracy,” Thanedar said

Illinois Democrat Governor J.B. Pritzker, apparently beginning his quest for the 2028 Democratic presidential nomination, called for “mass protests” and “destruction” in an evident attempt to outflank any other prospective candidate in rhetoric targeting the Trump administration.
An average of recent polls of prospective 2028 Democratic presidential candidates found that former Vice President Kamala Harris led with 27.1%, followed by former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg at 16.1%, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) at 12.9%, New Jersey Senator Cory Booker at 8.6%, and California Governor Gavin Newsom at 7.9%. Pritzker ranked 10th with 3.2%.

In his final act as pontiff of the Roman Catholic Church, Francis, in keeping with his deep commitment to the climate and well-cultivated image of personal humility, could have foregone a papal funeral.
To the thousands of world leaders and dignitaries flying to Rome as required by international protocol, Pope Francis could have extended an invitation to stay home. He could have ordered he not lie in state, preventing the Vatican pilgrimage of hundreds of thousands of faithful to pay their respects. He could have even skipped the motorcade through the streets of Rome. All this, as a memorable gesture to maintain a smaller carbon footprint — one last gift
As countries around the world try to bargain with US President Donald Trump over tariffs, longterm adversary Iran is pitching its sanctioned economy to him as an investment opportunity.
With talks between Iran and the US over the Islamic Republic’s atomic activity showing signs of progress, top Iranian officials are for the first time in decades overtly promoting their economy to the White House to secure a lasting and more effective nuclear accord. If Trump wants a deal that’s better for the US than the one he jettisoned in 2018, the Iranians want the same for Iran.

Suggests Republicans Are the Party of ‘Traitors’ 19 replies
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), during a ridiculous "sit-in" on the steps of the Capitol, invoked Civil War-era rhetoric to portray Democrats as "patriots" and the Republican party as "traitors."
Jeffries' controversial comments came during a staged protest on the steps of Congress, where he was initially joined by Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ/Sparta) and then accompanied by several other Democrats and their colleagues. This was by design, an attempt to make their "sit-in" appear to be an organic swelling of support—impressive in their own minds, much like Booker's fake 25-hour filibuster. Rev. William Barber joined the exercise in futility. He discussed putting “principles over party," triggering Jeffries to
