James Clyburn Furious as South Carolina
State Legislature Opens Door to Redistricting

Posted by earlybird 5/8/2026 12:14:31 PM Post Reply
The South Carolina House voted last night to open the door for redistricting in a special session a week from now. The measure still has to pass the South Carolina Senate; however, with the Indiana outcome at the forefront of their political future, the redistricting is more than likely. As a consequence, South Carolina Democrat James Clyburn is potentially going to lose his gerrymandered seat in congress. Given Clyburn’s stature as one of the key architects of the DNC ballot harvesting and election counting fraud via the AME Church network, Democrats are apoplectic.

The press questions cover the meeting with the Pope, foreign policy discussions and ongoing international relations between the United States, Italy and NATO allies. Secretary Rubio notes President Trump is reevaluating current troop deployment throughout Europe and President Trump will make further decisions on troop levels based on a variety of factors. The previous “base denials” is one of the factors for decision-making. WATCH: (video)
Virginia Supreme Court Strikes Down New
Congressional Map That Favors Democrats

The Virginia Supreme Court has struck down a congressional redistricting map approved by voters in a referendum last month, ruling that the Democratic-controlled Legislature failed to follow constitutional procedures when advancing the measure. The proposed map would likely have favored Democrats, giving them four additional congressional seats and creating a projected 10-to-1 advantage over Republicans in the state’s U.S. House delegation. The decision could strengthen Republican efforts to maintain control of the U.S. House of Representatives ahead of the midterm elections.
US Trade Court Strikes Down Trump’s
10 Percent Global Tariffs

The U.S. Court of International Trade on May 7 struck down President Donald Trump’s 10-percent global tariffs under the Trade Act of 1974. The court ruled 2–1 in favor of small businesses and several states that contested the tariffs, which had taken effect on Feb. 24. The dissenting judge said it was premature to rule on the dispute. The challengers had argued that the tariffs were the Trump administration’s attempt to sidestep a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that struck down the president’s tariffs levied under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act.

The White House has published the official 2026 Counterterrorism Strategy with a foreword by President Trump. [SEE HERE] Within the outline the White House breaks down the threats and strategies for each region. It is well worth reviewing the entire document which is written in plain language that avoids any misinterpretations. (pdf image)Regionally, the White House outlines specific threats and policies. Given the current situation with drug and human trafficking cartels as well as regional conflict in the Middle East and vulnerabilities in Europe, each of these points of material interest should be highlighted (emphasis mine).

Trump’s ‘Project Freedom’ Paused
Following Saudi Arabia Support Withdrawal

In recent developments President Trump’s ‘project freedom’ operation to open the Strait of Hormuz for captured shipping interests has been paused following Saudi Arabia’s withdrawal of support and their revocation of Saudi air bases for U.S. operations. The issue behind the Saudi decision is not that complicated if you understand the longer-term background. However, the issue behind the Saudi decision also highlights a key ¹flaw in the Promethean analysis of the relationship (and the reason I caution everyone to sip slowly from this information source).The cliff notes version is that Saudi Arabia and many of the Gulf States look at the negotiations between President Trump and Iranian interests with skepticism.

Tennessee State Rep. Justin Pearson is known for his disingenuously performative political stunts. He took it too far again on Thursday, screaming in the face of state troopers — completely unprovoked — because his state’s redistricting special session didn’t turn out the way he had hoped. To quote Pearson: “Move the f*** back! Boy! The f*** is wrong with you? You stupid motherf*****!”   The theater kid played the tough guy in front of the cameras, but instead of signaling that he won’t go down without a fight, he looked like a sore loser who disrespects the people there to protect him from political violence.

Well, well, well… look at that. Trump said D.C. officials were cooking the books on crime, and now 13 of them are facing termination over alleged crime-data manipulation. Funny how that keeps happening.Dems have been pushing their soft-on-crime agenda while also trying to convince Americans that crime in D.C. is down. They want you to believe their cities are safe, and anyone who notices all the carjackings, shootings, robberies, beatings, and random chaos must be watching too much Fox News. But regular people know better because they’re the ones living with it every single day. These are the people getting attacked, robbed,

Something is going to happen, I’m not entirely sure what it is, but something is going to happen on May 8th and 9th as Russia pauses the conflict with Ukraine to celebrate one of their most treasured holidays, Victory Day.My spidey senses are telling me, Ukraine and the EU are planning something very controversial to coincide with this national holiday in the Russian Federation. Germany has done this before, but this time with President Trump pulling back from NATO, this year holds a different context.GERMANY – Berlin police published an administrative order on 6 May restricting freedom of assembly and access to public spaces
Iran’s Oil Storage Clock Is About to
Run Out

The storage clock is ticking as tankers that exported 3.2 million barrels of crude oil per day remain bottled up in Iranian ports due to the blockade by the U.S. Navy. The blockade is part of a global vise denying Tehran $13 billion in monthly revenues and seeking to paralyze Iran’s petroleum industry by forcing it to shut down when it runs out of space to store what it can’t ship. Since U.S. President Donald Trump imposed the blockade on April 13, at least 1.5 million barrels of Iranian oil have been stored every day because there’s no place to move it.
