One of the extraordinary features of the first year of President Trump’s second term has been the attempted judicial coup by Democratic Party district court judges who have, in effect, tried to take over the operation of the Executive Branch. Rogue district judges have issued one ill-founded order after another, most of which have been reversed on appeal. Perhaps the worst offender has been James Boasberg, Chief Judge of the D.C. District Court.
Judge Boasberg has been trying to hold members of the Trump administration in criminal contempt for, allegedly, disobeying one of his illegal orders. The government made a mandamus motion in the D.C. Circuit

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. -- Another woman has come forward to accuse Congressman Eric Swalwell of sexual assault, giving a powerful and emotional account Tuesday morning.
At a press conference in Beverly Hills, Lonna Drewes told a harrowing story of allegedly being drugged, raped and choked by the soon-to-be former congressman in 2018. Swalwell, who pulled out of the governor's race and will resign his seat, is facing a mounting list of accusers and mounting legal trouble as well.
These details may be disturbing to read.
Drewes says she was a model and owned a fashion software company when she met Congressman Eric Swalwell in 2018.
She says they went out as friends several times

What is worse: murder or alleged racism? The New York Times knows. A headline in the paper’s April 11 print edition read: “Trump Posts Attack Video and Denigrates Haitians.” The online version of the article was only slightly more detailed: “Trump Shares Video of Graphic Attack and Rails Against Haitians.”
What was this “attack video” or, even more puzzlingly, this “graphic attack?” On April 3, a surveillance camera at a gas station convenience store in Fort Myers, Florida, filmed a burly man methodically bashing in the windows and hood of a parked car with a hammer. The audio captures the blows’ explosive force.

The Dems depantsed the repulsive Eric Swalwell over the weekend in an attack with something like the Pearl Harbor effect. It swiftly sunk Swalwell’s gubernatorial campaign. We followed the depantsing, but without quite the humorous detachment of Wall Street Journal Free Expression editor Matthew Hennessey. There are several interesting angles to the story and he inflicts glancing blows on most of them. He doesn’t expressly mention the apparent knowledge of members of the press about Swalwell’s way with women.
We knew about Fang Fang, okay, but we seem to have gone beyond an old-fashioned scandal into #MeToo territory. Now it’s getting serious. At the end of his column Hennessey

CBS committed a crucial triple-bogey-like error. There is nothing like watching Rory McIlroy win a back-to-back Masters for golf fans — that is, if you can actually see the winning shots. The broadcast failed to show McIlroy’s final four shots of the tournament as he claimed the first repeat green jacket since Tiger Woods in 2002. And CBS went on to hear it from golf fans. “CBS not being able to show the location of the final two approach shots of the masters is the cherry on top of an all-time horrible broadcast,” an X user posted.
“Very on brand for golf broadcasting that the cameraman lined up

Good morning and welcome to Sunday, April 12, 2026. (Snip) I’ve been watching this business with Eric Swalwell, who used to be the odds-on favorite to win the California governor’s seat. As with Bill Cosby before him, I wondered why the sudden shift of loyalties, what caused the bright orange circle on his back. I know that other of our great team of writers here at PJ Media have spoken up on this, but I felt given my Cosby comments last year, I should add my voice. One such incident is a one-off. More than that is a pattern, and in this case, an important one.

I have said it many times over the years: DEI, like affirmative action before it, is not just immoral. It is illegal, at least in employment and education. But for many years, the law went unenforced. That changed with the Supreme Court’s decision in the Harvard and North Carolina cases, the most important decision of recent years. The Court held that the Constitution and the Civil Rights Act mean what they say: race and sex discrimination are illegal.
That decision empowered the Trump administration to take action against the discriminatory policies that have been rampant in both the corporate world and academia. Thus, the Department of Justice has just

Iran doesn't have a lot of cards to play in the fight with the United States.
One of the few is that they seem to have folks on the left attacking everything President Donald Trump says or does in regard to Operation Epic Fury. That may give them thoughts. If they just hang in there, the Democrats' attacks on Trump may force him to pull back.
However, in another way, the Democratic reactions may have helped Trump and convinced the Iranians that Trump was going to drop "hell" on them as he promised. He had already been pounding them as it was. But you had people like former

California Rep. Eric Swalwell (CA-14) has just seen one of the most stunning political implosions you will ever see. Just days ago, he was the frontrunner in the California gubernatorial race, but on Friday, the San Francisco Chronicle reported on extremely serious sexual allegations against the congressman, and since then, his world has imploded.
Almost every person or organization who endorsed him has rescinded their support, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has opened an investigation, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (FL-13) has indicated she’s going to file a motion to expel him from Congress, and the pugnacious Rep. finally gave into the overwhelming outcry Sunday and dropped his bid

Anti-liberty/gun cracktivists find themselves stuck on recycling old, failed narratives because there is really nothing new in the distortions and lies they tell in trying to obliterate the Second Amendment. Among those failed narratives is microstamping, a nonsensical measure about which I last wrote in Microstamping And Zombies, 2024 in June of 2024 at my home blog, Microstamping is laser engraving a unique, identifying code on the tips of firing pins which will “stamp” that code—letters, numbers, etc—on the primers of fired cases. Some microstamping schemes also demand a second stamp elsewhere on a fired case.

A s the administration's trap is closing on the Iranian government (at least the fourth level of it, which is all that has not been eliminated by the IAF and U.S. forces) Irishmen are blockading major roads and streets in Ireland. Only the Guinness tankers are being let through. Ostensibly the dispute is over the rising cost of fuel which will bankrupt farmers and truckers. If, however, you’ve been paying attention, the rebellion goes deeper -- the high taxes, third-world immigration, and the highhandedness of the government. Under the guise of the idiotic net zero policies, the Irish government has been using the tax revenues which will destroy agriculture

Among the many genius effects of Trump is that his crazy-man approach to dealing with our enemies only makes our enemies more insane and intransigent than before. I refer, of course, to the Democratic Party (and the mainstream media, but I repeat myself). It is a remarkable thing that Iran appears (at this writing—this could change before these pixels are dry) to be more reasonable than Democrats when it comes to Trump. I hope he keeps his laser-pointer fully-charged and holstered.
