Posted By: Beardo, 5/7/2026 3:43:21 PM
The embarrassingly awful Democrat mayor of Charlotte, N.C., has abruptly announced she is resigning halfway through her term. The move raises speculation as to why. (snip) Perhaps Lyles’s most shameful moment was her reaction to the murder of young Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska on the Charlotte Area Transit System subway. (snip) Lyles did not even mention Iryna‘s name in her statement after the murder, nor did she condemn the brutal crime. Instead, she fixated on building up a sob story over the murderer.

Brian Krassenstein has spent years as one of the left's most reliable attack dogs on social media. He's built his brand on opposing Donald Trump and everything adjacent to Trump's orbit. So when Krassenstein announced he bought a Tesla Cybertruck, his followers didn't congratulate him on the smart purchase. They threatened to kill him. (snip) The backlash was swift and vicious. Krassenstein watched his follower count crater from 1.5 million to under a million.

Text messages released by the Senate Judiciary Committee show two former federal prosecutors discussing desires to prosecute nuns during investigations of the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.
Joseph Cooney and Molly Gaston, career prosecutors at the Justice Department rather than political appointees, played a role in prosecuting President Donald Trump during former President Joe Biden’s administration. Both were fired shortly after Trump became president a second time and are legal partners at Gaston & Cooney PLLC. Cooney is running for Congress in Virginia.
A bill that would allow recipients of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, to buy hot rotisserie chicken is one step closer to becoming law.
On Thursday, the U.S. House voted 384-35 in support of an amendment to the Farm Bill, which would modify the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 to law to allow the purchase of hot rotisserie chicken for SNAP beneficiaries.
U.S. Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., introduced bipartisan legislation labeled the “Hot Rotisserie Chicken Act,” in the Senate a week ago

A new report released Thursday by the Task Force to Eradicate Anti-Christian Bias reveals what investigators describe as a "stark contrast" and a systemic double standard in how the Biden Internal Revenue Service policed American churches.
“The Biden IRS … [opened] multiple investigations into Christian churches focused on the content of their sermons. The IRS asked these churches for detailed information about their operations, not just about the alleged violations,” the task force wrote.
California regulators apologized to SpaceX CEO Elon Musk this week as they settled a lawsuit that claimed a state agency showed political bias against the rocket company and its chief executive.
As part of the settlement, the California Coastal Commission acknowledged its members made “improper” statements about Musk’s political beliefs at a 2024 hearing on SpaceX’s Falcon 9 launch program.
“The commission agrees that it may not consider irrelevant factors in performing its function and specifically agrees that it will not take into account the perceived political beliefs, political speech or labor practices

Nearly four years after the home of Catholic father of seven and pro-life activist Mark Houck was arrested at gunpoint, he and his wife won a settlement of more than $1 million from the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ).
The Houck home, located in rural eastern Pennsylvania, was raided by 20 armed federal agents in the early hours of the morning on Sept. 23, 2022. Houck was arrested in front of his family and interrogated for six hours.
On Tuesday, another news item dropped that will have conservatives (and probably a fair number of moderates) chuckling for the rest of the day. (snip) Now, we learn that the SPLC has not only been encouraging real white supremacist and racist groups, but they have been funding them. And now, they have been indicted on 11 counts of wire fraud, false statements to a federally insured bank, and conspiracy to commit money laundering. Acting AG Blanche and FBI Director Patel made the announcement:
The California Supreme Court officially disbarred President Donald Trump’s former attorney, John Eastman, last week over his work assisting Trump to dispute the 2020 election results. Eastman merely provided options for Trump to consider in a legal memo — some of which would have resulted in Joe Biden winning the election — and drafted and filed a brief for him in the election challenge Texas v. Pennsylvania. In contrast, none of the attorneys involved in the 2000 election challenge representing Al Gore over “hanging chads” in Florida were disciplined.

Tim Cook Steps Down as Apple CEO

Tim Cook will continue to be the executive chairman at tech giant Apple, but is stepping down from his longtime position as CEO of the company.
Cook has made a great financial success of Apple, indeed, but many conservatives also remember how he oversaw implementation of a woke agenda. Recently, this has been particularly obvious on Apple News, as Media Research Center found. Apple News went on a 100-day streak of no right-leaning media through the start of February, and proved the most radical major online news aggregator again in March.
When politicians write a book (and the word "write" is doing heavy lifting because they use ghostwriters), they're generally not really trying to sell books; (snip) According to Federal Elections Commission (FEC) reports analyzed by the New York Times, the PAC "spent $1,561,875 to buy and distribute copies of his book through the donation program."
They sold 67,000 books through the program, "roughly two-thirds of the 97,400 the print copies of the memoir that have been sold," according to the New York Post.

The Barack Obama Presidential Center won't be open to the public for another few weeks, but the gift shop is already up and running. All proceeds will support the Obama Foundation and its mission to "inspire, empower, and connect people to change their world." The foundation is also responsible for funding and operating the new presidential center, which has been described as a "hideous eyesore" befitting the colossal vanity of a tinpot dictator.

A Democratic lawmaker is drawing backlash after saying she spoke with foreign ambassadors about getting oil to Cuba despite U.S. sanctions, defending the outreach as "literally our right and responsibility."
Rep. Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., made the remarks during a recent Seattle briefing following a congressional delegation trip to Cuba, where she discussed the island’s worsening fuel shortages and U.S. policy toward the communist regime.
"I was in conversations with the ambassadors from Mexico and some other places … trying to figure out how to get oil there," Jayapal said during the briefing, calling the situation on the island "a crisis beyond imagination." Jayapal said the event was

Well, Seattle, like New York, has elected a real extremist as mayor. Katie Wilson, a despicable woman who looks as though she could be Abigail Spanberger’s sister, and as though she uses a broom for transportation, has decided to singlehandedly drive Seattle deeper into liberal hell than it already is. Like Spanberger, Wilson is tough to look at. True, neither is physically attractive, but the major reason for that is the smug, nauseating arrogance that they reek of. Both have stomach-turning smirks that cement their place in the despicable hall of fame.
Like Spanberger, Wilson wasted little time instituting the Democrat destruction of the city, and even the liberal rag,
Barack Obama appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert Monday night and had the audacity — the actual audacity — to lecture America about presidents misusing the Justice Department.
And he did it with a straight face.
Obama told Colbert that presidents shouldn't be able to weaponize the DOJ against their enemies. "The White House shouldn't be able to direct the attorney general to go around prosecuting whoever," Obama said. "The idea is that the attorney general is the people's lawyer. It's not the president's consigliere." Just let that sit for a second. The man who appointed Eric Holder as attorney general — the same Eric Holder who publicly called himself
The Deep State leaked a CIA Iran war dossier to the Washington Post that refutes Trump’s claims that the Iranian Regime’s missiles are mostly decimated.
On Wednesday, President Trump sparred with a reporter in the Oval Office during a meeting with UFC fighters.
The reporter asked Trump about his decision to pause Project Freedom amid a blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.
Trump told the reporter that the US military has decimated Iran’s missile capabilities and they probably only have about 18 percent left.
Tuesday, May 5, 2026 - Mexican drug lord Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman has sent a handwritten letter to the federal court for the Eastern District of New York requesting to be extradited to Mexico to face charges in his home country, in a move that legal experts consider almost unlikely to succeed.
The document, dated April 23 and formally received by the court on May 1, was processed through the Pro Se office of the Brooklyn court, confirming that the drug trafficker acted on his own, without the support or signature of his defense attorneys.
The letter, written in grammatically incorrect English, appeals to concepts of "equity" and argues

Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) has revealed she has long lived with a benign essential tremor after she launched her re-election campaign for a sixth term in the US Senate.
Collins, 73, disclosed the condition — which causes visible shaking in her hands, head and voice — publicly for the first time on Wednesday while she insisted that it has not impacted her ability to serve in office.
“I have had it for the entire time that I have served in the United States Senate,” Collins told NEWS CENTER Maine. “It has absolutely no impact on my ability to do my job or on how I feel each
Could this be the endgame? On Wednesday, while talking to reporters in the Oval Office, President Trump implied that a deal with Iran was imminent - and stated that they have agreed to give up their nuclear weapons program. The Center Square's Washington, D.C., Bureau Chief, Sarah Roderick-Fitch, has more.
During a Wednesday afternoon news conference in the Oval Office, Trump indicated that Iran has agreed not to have a nuclear weapon – a stipulation in a deal between Iran and the U.S.
“Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon, and they won’t, and they’ve agreed to that, among other things,” Trump told reporters.
The president said a deal
Earlier this week, we editorialized about the Great Green Grift of the climate hustlers who line their own pockets as well as those of their co-conspirators. Today we dig into the science, which has been repeatedly abused, often abandoned and artfully prostituted to support the global warming racket.
The United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has long been treated as always having the first and last word on global warming. Google’s artificial intelligence says it’s “widely regarded as the world’s leading authority on climate science, providing essential, peer-reviewed assessments that inform international policy.”
Crowley, who is heading up the historic Freedom 250 semiquincentennial celebration, talked about the significance of the fact that America has Trump as the sitting president during this momentous occasion. President Trump often jokes,” she began. “He said, well, my first term, I brought the FIFA World Cup to America, and I brought the 2028 Olympic Games to America. And I thought, you know, I’m not going to be around to actually see it, because I’ll serve two consecutive terms, and we all know what happened in 2020…”
But the events ended up working out in an incredible way, she continued, with Trump serving a very rare second non-consecutive term,
Wednesday on MS NOW’s “Deadline,” Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) said if the Democrats win the majority in the midterm elections, he will be “leading investigations” on alleged corruption related to President Donald Trump.

Goldman said, “Am I optimistic about what?”
Just weeks before Memorial Day and amid the United States’ 250th anniversary year, a city council member in Lynnwood, Washington, launched into a tirade against the American flag, declaring that the Pride flag is far more relatable to her and suggesting the 27 US flags at Wilcox Park should be replaced. According to the Lynnwood Times, Councilwoman Isabel Mata made the remarks during the May 4 City Council meeting while discussing the city’s flag display policies. “To me, a pride flag is way more relatable than an American flag. I would not raise an American flag at my house because I just, I wouldn't. I wasn't even born here.
