Appeals Court Likely Backs Trump on Alien
Enemies Act
Posted By: Dreadnought, 7/2/2025 2:23:09 AM
President Donald Trump’s determined use of the Alien Enemies Act to enable fast-track deportations is likely to get approved by a three-judge appeals court panel, say media reports. Under the headline, “Appeals court seems likely to back Trump’s deportations under wartime law,’ the Washington Post wrote: “Can you give me a Supreme Court case that says a federal court can countermand the chief executive on a decision in an armed conflict?” Judge Andrew S. Oldham challenged Lee Gelernt

The new CIA assessment released this week is nothing short of a bombshell—a long-overdue confirmation of what conservative media has been saying for years: The Obama administration, with the eager help of its top intelligence brass, orchestrated an unprecedented operation to cripple Donald Trump’s presidency before it even began. This isn’t some fevered speculation or partisan rumor.
The CIA’s own review lays out, in damning detail, how former CIA Director John Brennan, former DNI James Clapper, and former FBI Director James Comey took “unusual” and direct control over the infamous Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) that became the cornerstone of the Russia collusion hoax.
Hackers working on behalf of the Iranian government are likely to target industrial control systems used at water treatment plants and other critical infrastructure to retaliate against recent military strikes by Israel and the US, federal government agencies are warning. One cybersecurity company says many US-based targets aren't adequately protected against the threat.
“Based on the current geopolitical environment, Iranian-affiliated cyber actors may target US devices and networks for near-term cyber operations,” an advisory jointly published by the The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, FBI, Department of Defense Cyber Crime Center, and the National Security Agency stated.
Representative Maxwell Frost (D-FL) said Tuesday on MSNBC’s “The Briefing” that President Donald Trump’s “big, beautiful” domestic policy package passed by the Senate has at least 20 Republican Representatives who are currently no votes.
Frost said, “We’re hearing that there’s about 20 Republicans could be a little bit more –”
Host Jen Psaki said, “Twenty.”
Frost continued, “Twenty Republicans that as of now are no.”
Psaki said, “They can only lose three.”
Frost said, “They can only, they can lose 3 or 4 and it’s done, and Massie — he’s already one of them. So there’s three more to go. We hear this about roughly
Have you noticed that liberals are still clinging to the delusion that Republican voters are turning on Donald J. Trump? These claims have been floating around for weeks, and yet, the simple truth of the matter is that this is just a fantasy. The latest data blows that narrative to pieces—and even CNN was forced to admit it.
CNN anchor Sara Sidner brought in chief data analyst Harry Enten to break down the numbers, and what he revealed left no room for doubt.
“We’re going to look at the 'strongly approved' numbers. So, this isn’t just Republicans who like Donald Trump. This is Republicans who love Donald Trump

Huge Settlement After Calling Out Transgender Insanity 12 replies
Chalk up another win for team commonsense after 82-year-old Julie Jaman won a $65,000 settlement because she refused to be quiet about a man being in her women’s locker room and was subsequently banned from using her local YMCA pool in Washington.
In a statement from the Center for American Liberty, the non-profit group that defends the civil liberties of Americans, said Jaman’s settlement was a “major victory for free speech and civil liberties.”
“Julie Jaman has reached a $65,000 settlement in her lawsuit against the City of Port Townsend and the Olympic Peninsula YMCA after being permanently banned

More Coming Out on the Idaho Shooter

The ambush and deaths of those Idaho firefighters, responding to the brush fire, were pretty heartbreaking to cover this past Sunday night. For those who live in the area, it had to be a frightening experience, for not only was there an apparent homicidal lunatic roaming their remote area, but it also looked as if there might be an uncontrolled fire rampaging through their neighborhoods thanks to him.
...Canfield Mountain, a popular hiking and biking area just outside Coeur d’Alene, became a war zone on Sunday. Its thick vegetation and complex trail system presented both tactical challenges and vulnerabilities for those responding to the emergency.
Paramount Global has reached a settlement with Donald Trump in his lawsuit against CBS News, clearing a path for the media company’s long-delayed merger with Skydance Media.
The settlement, announced at close to midnight Tuesday on the East Coast, calls for Paramount to pay $16 million. Notably, it does not involve a formal apology by the company over its handling of a 60 Minutes interview. Trump sued CBS News and its parent company, Paramount, for $20 billion over the promotion of the interview last fall with former Vice President Kamala Harris, Trump’s opponent in the presidential election.
President Donald Trump revoked sanctions on Syria Monday in an executive order, a month after he met with Syria’s interim President, Ahmed al-Sharaa, in Saudi Arabia.
Trump’s order lifts sanctions on Syria, although sanctions on former dictator “Bashar al-Assad, his associates, human rights abusers, drug traffickers, persons linked to chemical weapons activities, ISIS or its affiliates, and Iranian proxies” are still in effect, according to a fact sheet from the White House.
The White House notes in its fact sheet that the move is to support Syria’s “path to stability and peace.” Secretary of State Marco Rubio is tasked with evaluating “suspending sanctions, either in whole or in part
An 82-year-old Colorado woman who was injured in the June 1 firebombing of a peaceful pro-Israel march has died.
The Boulder County District Attorney’s Office said Karen Diamond, one of 13 people who were wounded, succumbed to “the severe injuries that she suffered in the attack.” She died on June 25, and her family held a private burial. She is survived by her husband, two sons and daughters-in-law, and five grandchildren.
“This horrific attack has now claimed the life of an innocent person who was beloved by her family and friends,” Boulder County District Attorney Michael Dougherty said in a statement.
Harvard University violated federal civil rights law by failing to protect Jewish and Israeli students, the Trump administration found after an investigation by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The administration is now threatening to cut off all funding to the university if action is not taken to address the violation.
HHS’ Office for Civil Rights (OCR) found Harvard to be in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, which prohibits discrimination based on race and ethnicity. The university has been a “willful participant in anti-Semitic harassment of Jewish students, faculty, and staff,” the agency wrote in a letter to Harvard president Alan Garber. “Failure to institute

President Donald Trump must allow illegal migrants to file for asylum, regardless of the impact on his mandate to raise deportation rates, says a district court judge in Washington, D.C.
The administration must also “provide relief” to recently deported migrants who may want to file for asylum in the United States, the Wednesday judgment says.
The ruling by Judge Randolph Moss may crash Trump’s deportation policy because it would force officials to release migrants, or detain them at great expense while judges consider asylum pleas.
The judgment will be appealed, but it argues that the pro-asylum laws passed by Congress decades ago override Trump’s January 20 proclamation, “Guaranteeing the States Protection Against Invasion.”

CIA Assessment Reveals How Far Obama

Administration Went to Frame Trump, Implicates Officials 20 replies
A new CIA assessment was released on Wednesday that shows how far the Obama administration went to stand up the Russian collusion hoax. John Ratcliffe announced that "all the world will finally see the truth" before name-dropping James Clapper, John Brennan, and James Comey as those primarily implicated in the scheme.
All three men took "unusual" direct roles in shaping the now-infamous ICA that was released during the presidential transition following the 2016 election. It was that report that would form the building block of the Russian collusion narrative and eventually lead to a special counsel investigation.
If you want to understand the full scope of the Biden administration’s border catastrophe, look no further than the horrifying reality that unfolded for thousands of migrant children. Under Joe Biden, the federal government didn’t just lose track of unaccompanied minors; it actively handed them over to criminals, abusers, and traffickers, putting these kids directly in harm’s way.
Under Biden, the Department of Homeland Security placed unaccompanied migrant children with so-called “sponsors” who were barely vetted, if at all. These weren’t just distant relatives or family friends. In many cases, these sponsors had rap sheets a mile long — charges ranging from aggravated assault
Zohran Mamdani was officially certified as the winner of the June 24 New York City Democratic mayoral primary on Tuesday. He defeated former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo on his way to a victory that is still sending shockwaves through the Democratic Party establishment and beyond. Now, the debate rages over who Mamdani really is. Is he antisemitic or just pro-Palestinian? Is he anti-ICE or just pro-immigrant? However, one thing seems to be increasingly clear. Mamdani is a serious Marxist and that should concern anyone in New York City.
When he's not assisting with taking out Iran's nuclear capabilities, revoking visas from those who support terrorism, or helping the president broker peace in Africa, he's looking after your tax dollars.

A federal judge on Wednesday blocked President Trump’s policy banning illegals who cross the border from seeking asylum.
US District Judge Randolph Moss, an Obama appointee, said President Trump does not have the authority to bypass immigration law that Congress has enacted.
Earlier this year, the anti-American ACLU and Las Americas Immigrant Advocacy Center sued the Trump Administration over its asylum policy.
Judge Moss stayed his order for 14 days so the Trump Administration can file an appeal.

The Pentagon has halted shipments of some previously promised munitions to Ukraine at a key juncture of the country’s war with neighboring Russia due to the depletion of U.S. stockpiles during the Biden administration.
In news that was first reported by Politico, the decision was made after a review of munitions stockpiles “leading to concerns that the total number of artillery rounds, air defense missiles and precision munitions was sinking,” according to the usual anonymous sources of “three people familiar with the issue.”
The decision was driven by Under Secretary of Defense for Policy Elbridge Colby, an appointee of President Donald J. Trump,
Celebrating the Fourth of July is proving too dangerous for Los Angeles, prompting municipalities in the area to cancel planned celebrations due to concerns about enforcement actions by U.S. Customs and Immigration Enforcement (ICE) agents. The fear did not impede hundreds from attending a “Sick-of-ICE, Sick-of-Trump” protest in the city Tuesday.
The cancellations can only be seen as acts of protest against the Trump administration by the municipalities — several of which chose to cancel previously advertised celebrations.

The great thing about what's being referred to as "Alligator Alcatraz" is that it's not just a fantastic detention facility for illegal immigrants ready for deportation, situated out in the Florida Everglades where you're more likely to run into a predatory creature all the way from the Triassic period than a human, but it's also a meme.
How could something that awesome not be?
The facility is one accidental open door away from being a Michael Crichton book, encouraging everyone there to stay put to stay safe, and while everyone else thinks this is one of the coolest things in America now, the left is doing what it does

Just after midnight, Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski was pacing in a Senate hallway, alone and looking concerned.
It had suddenly become clear to all her Republican colleagues that her vote would be their best chance of passing President Donald Trump’s sweeping bill of tax and spending cuts. Had she decided whether she would support the bill? “No,” Murkowski said, shaking her head and putting her hand up to signal that she didn’t want to answer any questions.
Around 12 hours later, after she had convinced Senate leaders to change the bill to benefit her state and voted for the legislation, ensuring its passage,

As the downward spiral of Gotham continues, many are still hard at work upholding the law, and on Tuesday, that included announcing an indictment of 14 individuals alleged to have participated in a pay-to-drive scheme. Staten Island District Attorney Michael McMahon detailed during a press conference Tuesday that “hundreds if not thousands of people” may have illegally obtained licenses through T&E Driving School in Queens.
