Over the last decade and a half, Dems provided the country with a master class on how to target and make life unlivable for people, political organizations and ways of life that they didn’t like. Just ask a gun owner. The NRA was targeted by the corrupt New York Attorney General Letitia James, who then proceeded to go after other political opponents, a campaign was launched to debank the entire firearms industry and ingenious ideas were generated for going after individual gun owners. Could we do the same thing to illegal aliens? Here’s a good start. Here’s a proposal from

While I am totally in favor of finding and deporting illegal aliens, I am totally against debanking them. Think for a moment. Once the government gets the banking system to accept this as a policy and practice, who will be next? Don't you think that when the Democrats get back in power, they'll move quickly to debank conservative organizations and eventually anyone that doesn't agree with their crazy policies? This is a horrible idea, and if it's not stopped forcefully now, it will end up creating chaos for us later.

Re #2 - The banks already debank individuals or organizations they don't like - just ask the Trump family and others aligned with him, his administration or campaigns.

It's already OK with the dems to debank their 'enemies' so what's good for the goose should be good for the gander! Republicans, if they had a spine, could use every rotten method employed by the dems, and when confronted, point and declare, "you started it!"

It's been 21 years since we opened a checking account here in FL. Even then, they wanted proof of residency, driver's license, socials, last bank accounts, etc. We were told it was to prevent fraud. Now, here we are.

De-banking is wrong if done for any political reason.

Yes. And the Bank of American specializes in banking for NON-Americans. It should be illegal to open a bank account for an illegal alien. BIG fines for the bank.

Chicago Runs the Vatican Now? Pope Leo’s
Secret Meeting with Obama’s Former Advisor

The Vatican is not usually where political plot twists drop, but here we are. Pope Leo XIV, the first American-born pope and a certified Chicago guy, hosted David Axelrod on Thursday, April 9, for a private meeting that has the internet fully in detective mode. But here is where it gets interesting. This low-key, closed-door sit-down happened less than 24 hours after a report claimed Trump-aligned U.S. officials pressured the Vatican’s ambassador in Washington and basically told him the American pope needs to pick a side. And suddenly, what could have been routine now feels loaded. And when you zoom out, the backstory only adds fuel to the fire.

It’s pretty incredible when you can get the Democrats and the media to care, suddenly, about the issue of blasphemy. I thought maybe Easter Sunday had led to some kind of unexpected revival when I saw that kind of talk making the rounds. And then I realized that, no, it was just because they were claiming President Donald Trump thought he was Jesus Christ and that gave them a good angle to appear like they cared about religion — along with the ability to ignore a bunch of other stuff they didn’t want to report on. The question therefore asks itself: Where was the media when artists

Iran’s radical Muslim President Masoud Pezeshkian has rushed to praise and defend Pope Leo XIV after the Chicago-born pontiff launched yet another attack on President Donald Trump for standing up to the bloodthirsty Iranian regime. As The Gateway Pundit reported, Trump delivered a blistering takedown of Pope Leo XIV, the first American-born pontiff, slamming the Vatican leader as weak on crime, disastrous on foreign policy, and far too cozy with the radical left. Trump also noted that he recently hosted the Pope’s brother, Louis, at the White House, a man who actually understands the MAGA movement. When asked by the Associated Press about Trump’s post, Pope Leo XIV refused to back down.

California governor Gavin Newsom made a bold pledge as he campaigned for his first term in 2017: He would release his tax returns to the public every year he serves in office, a move the Democrat described as the "moral duty" of "leaders seeking the highest offices." Now, with less than a year remaining in his second term and a looming 2028 presidential campaign on the horizon, Newsom's last five tax returns are nowhere to be seen. Newsom said in 2019 that disclosing his returns would deter allegations of "conflicts of interest, self-dealing, or influence from domestic or foreign business interests." News outlets like the Sacramento Bee praised the governor for

International Business Machines (IBM) agreed to pay more than $17 million to resolve federal allegations related to its diversity, equity, and inclusion policies, including claims that executive compensation was tied to demographic targets. The company’s chief executive, Arvind Krishna, who was born in India, has been a central figure in shaping the company’s diversity strategy.

The White House on Tuesday posted on X that 51 million seniors are now paying “NO TAX ON SOCIAL SECURITY” thanks to the Working Families Tax Cuts signed by President Donald Trump. The post stated: “GOLDEN AGE FOR YOUR GOLDEN YEARS. The Working Families Tax Cuts have allowed 51 million seniors to keep more of their money by paying NO TAX ON SOCIAL SECURITY.” This message continues the administration’s emphasis on tax relief measures, including no tax on tips and no tax on overtime. The White House has repeatedly promoted these provisions as delivering significant savings to working families and retirees during the current tax filing season. The tax changes stem from

Ford CEO Jim Farley said Chinese automakers should not be allowed to sell their vehicles in the US – warning the competition would decimate domestic car brands. In his gravest warning yet, the exec argued that the US should maintain its current tariffs of 100% on Chinese carmakers, effectively blocking their vehicles from American roads. “We should not let them into our country,” Farley said during a Monday appearance on Fox News’ “Fox & Friends.” “Manufacturing is the heart and soul of our country and for us to lose that to those exports would be devastating to our country.” Affordable, high-tech cars from Chinese brands like BYD and Xiaomi have been racing
House Democrats Seek to Launch ‘25th

House Democrats have introduced new legislation to create a commission to evaluate whether President Trump should be removed from office under the 25th Amendment. The proposal, led by New York Congressman Jamie Raskin, would establish a 17-member panel to assess whether the president is fit to carry out his duties. The effort comes despite Republicans controlling Congress and the president retaining veto power, making the measure almost certain to fail. More than 85 Democrats in Congress recently called for Trump to be impeached or removed through the 25th Amendment following comments he made about bombing Iran.

The Justice Department moved Tuesday to vacate the seditious conspiracy convictions of former Proud Boys leaders who led hundreds of supporters to the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6. In a consolidated appeal before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, the DOJ asked judges to wipe out the convictions of former Proud Boys leaders Ethan Nordean, Joseph Biggs, Zachary Rehl and Dominic Pezzola and send the case back to the trial court so prosecutors can formally move to dismiss the indictment with prejudice. Federal prosecutors argued that vacating the convictions would allow the DOJ to exercise its discretion and end the case entirely under

A police dog named “Pub” helped two federal agents sniff out two massive cash seizures amounting to nearly $75,000 in undeclared cash in the first quarter of 2026. Pub, a Belgian Malinois trained to find currency and firearms, alerted Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) agents to a hidden stash of $44,432 in February and another pile worth $30,417 in March. The Belgian Malinois found 20 percent of the total undeclared cash discovered at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport in the first quarter of the year. The larger sum was bound for Qatar, while the second was due for El Salvador. Agents reportedly said they gave the suspects with undeclared cash “multiple opportunities” to confess before

After independent journalist Nick Shirley sparked a national news cycle in January over alleged state-administered fraud, California lawmakers have moved to restrict the activities of independent journalists who question government spending, according to state officials. In an exclusive interview with The Daily Signal, California state Assemblyman David Tangipa said the California Legislature is advancing what he described as “unconstitutional legislation” that would limit the release of video recordings by independent journalists who investigate taxpayer-funded programs. Assembly Bill 2624 was introduced in February by California state Assemblywoman Mia Bonta following the viral success of a Shirley video questioning potential health care and day care fraud.

Former President Joe Biden reportedly wanted Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer to be his vice president but "had to choose" former Vice President Kamala Harris. An Atlantic article profiled the Democratic governor and potential 2028 presidential candidate on Sunday and reported how Biden considered Whitmer to be his running mate in 2020, particularly after her pushback against President Donald Trump. (Snip) The report said a former senior staffer for Whitmer said, "The moment called for a Black running mate," and how Biden really wanted the Michigan governor instead.

Democrats did not turn a blind eye to Rep. Eric Swalwell’s (D-CA) alleged behavior, Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said during an appearance at the American Public Transportation Association’s legislative conference this week, stating that she had “no idea whatsoever” about these accusations. Pelosi, 86, was confronted on whether or not Democrats have turned a “blind eye” to the sexual misconduct accusations against Swalwell, who has since suspended his gubernatorial campaign and announced a coming resignation from Congress. No. That’s not true,” Pelosi denied. “That is absolutely positive — and it is true that they may say that, but it is absolutely not true.” When asked if Pelosi had any idea —

Just a few weeks ago, Rep. Eric Swalwell was said to be leading a crowded pack of Democrats trying to win the nomination for California’s governor. Then, in the blink of an eye, his party abandoned him. The alleged reason is evidence of sexual misconduct. In reality, Swalwell fell victim to the Democratic Party’s unquenchable lust for power and California’s bizarre jungle primary. On Friday, the San Francisco Chronicle and CNN both ran stories about women accusing him of sexual misconduct. Within hours, Democrats were taking their endorsements back and calling on him to drop out of the race. By Sunday, he’d suspended his campaign.

Iran is demanding compensation from Gulf states it has attacked repeatedly after accusing them of complicity in the US and Israel strikes that began on February 28. In the letter to the UN Security Council, seen by The National on Monday, Tehran claimed Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Bahrain, Qatar and Jordan allowed their territories to be used for attacks on Iran after the US and Israel launched strikes. Iran called that a “flagrant act of aggression” in breach of international law and the UN Charter. “By their internationally wrongful acts, they have breached their international obligations owed to the Islamic Republic of Iran under international law,

Díaz-Canel issued the claim speaking with NBC News’s “Meet the Press” moderator Kristen Welker in Havana. NBC published the full, roughly 53-minute interview on Sunday days after releasing a five minute-long snippet in which the figurehead claimed he will not step down from his position at a time when U.S. officials and members of the Cuban communist regime have engaged in talks.

Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger has signed a bill to circumvent the electoral college and have Virginia become a member of a compact between states that are looking to give their Electoral College votes to the presidential candidate that wins the popular vote instead of the candidate that voters from the state choose. Spanberger signed HB965 into law, which would effectively null and void votes cast in Virginia itself and only give its Electoral College votes to the nationwide popular vote winner. The compact between the states, however, will not go into effect until there are enough states in the compact to reach 270 electoral votes.

But maybe Leo isn’t a fan of Exodus or Deuteronomy. Or the Bible. Maybe he is a cafeteria Catholic. Or maybe he is a closet Muslim. Or maybe he really doesn’t believe there’s a difference.There is a great wall protecting Vatican City. The wall is two miles long and 39 feet tall. It is made of thick, solid brick. Pope Leo IV ordered the construction of the massive barrier around the year 850 A.D. to shield the city-state from invaders. It was deemed crucial to keeping invaders out. But the fortification, stout as it is, isn’t stout enough to keep the staggering and repulsive hypocrisy emanating from Pope Leo XIV in.
