  1. A federal judge, born in Mexico and appointed by Biden, has blocked President Trump from defunding free lawyers for Unaccompanied Alien Children (UACs). In February, the Trump administration paused funding for the Acacia Center for Justice — a non-governmental organization (NGO) that provides free lawyers to tens of thousands of UACs hoping to stay in the United States using millions in American taxpayer dollars. During the Biden administration, the Acacia Center for Justice secured $200 million in federal contracts to provide lawyers to UACs. Late on Tuesday, U.S. District Judge Araceli Martinez Olguin, who was born in Mexico City and appointed by Biden, became the latest federal judge to block President Trump from carrying out his “America First” agenda.

  3. It looks like the North American Volvo that it is.
  4. President Trump says Elon Musk is resigning from his government role. In my mind, this is a tragedy. The establishment won this battle.
  5. According to senior Israeli political, military and diplomatic sources, the U.S. and Israel are preparing to launch a strike on Iran to eradicate the its nuclear weapons program. A week ago, a trio of B2 stealth bombers, accompanied by long-range refueling assets, were dispatched to Diego Garcia, bringing the number of B2 bombers there to seven. The B2s would presumably deploy GBU-57s' which can penetrate Iran's hardened nuclear shelters. https://www.twz.com/air/signs-u-s-massing-b-2-spirit-bombers-in-diego-garcia
  6. https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2025/04/01/nolte-man-arrested-for-tossing-nails-and-screws-in-driveways-of-trump-supporters/ Here’s my theory… Older Americans who haven’t quite grasped streaming, social media, and podcasts are still being brainwashed by a legacy media that lies and lies and lies. The media tell them Musk is a threat to democracy, a threat to their Social Security payments, and then the media either downplay or attempt to justify the violence aimed at Musk and his customers. Eventually, CNN or MSNBC can warp a person into believing it is virtuous to scratch a swastika on the hood of a Tesla. My dad is 86. Talking to him these days is like talking to Rachel Maddow, only her voice is huskier.
  7. President Trump lauded the passage of an amendment in Wisconsin on Tuesday that will enshrine voter ID into the state constitution. “Voter I.D. just approved in Wisconsin election. Democrats fought hard against this, presumably so they can cheat. This is a big win for Republicans, maybe the biggest win of the night. It should allow us to win Wisconsin, like I just did in the presidential election, for many years to come.” President Trump
  8. Republican Jimmy Patronis, a mainstay in Tallahassee who rose to the statewide post of chief financial officer, is headed to Congress to replace Matt Gaetz. He defeated Democrat Gay Valimont in a special election held after Gaetz resigned late last year. Republican Florida state Sen. Randy Fine won the special election for Florida’s 6th Congressional District.

  10. Vietnam has announced import tariff cuts ahead of the entry into effect of President Trump’s tariffs. Imports that will see reduced import levies include liquefied natural gas, cars, ethanol, wood products, and various foodstuffs. For LNG, the import tariff rate would be reduced from 5% to 2%. The tariff on imported cars would be reduced from 64% to 32% (which is no good.....must be reduced to 2.5%). Ethanol tariffs would be reduced from 10% to 5%. Vietnam has the third-highest trade surplus with the United States, at $123.5 billion as of last year, right behind Canada and China in terms of trade imbalance from the U.S. perspective.
  11. I think it's important to project a clear plan, and I'm not seeing that. Americans are owed that. First, he said reciprocal tariffs. I'm 100% on board with that. We charge a 2.5% levy on light vehicles imported from the EU. They charge a 10% levy on U.S. imported light vehicles. With a reciprocal tariff scheme, we raise our levy from 2.5% to 10%. Excellent....done deal. Reciprocal is the epitome of a level playing field. But now he wants to enact a 25% import levy on all imported light vehicles. Now it all becomes murky, what with the lack of any detailed explanation. When did they shift gears? Why? Allegedly he is ignoring the level-headed thoughts of JD Vance. Suzie Wiles and Scott Bessent, and instead listening to alleged "yes man" Lutnick, and unproven Navarro. It was the US companies who sought to offshore, not the countries they went to. NAFTA.....what those American CEOs, Bill Clinton and supportive members of congress orchestrated was criminal.

  14. Speaking at a conference alongside his longtime friend Antonio Gracias, CEO of Valor Equity Partners, Musk said DOGE uncovered some eye-opening numbers regarding social security in 2024. “We started at the top of the system. Mapping the whole system of social security to understand where all the fraud was. There’s a lot of great people there that showed us a lot of waste, so that came with a big list of stuff. But this is what jumped out at us. In 2021, you see 270,000 people; goes all the way to 2.1 million in 2024. These are non-citizens that are getting social security numbers,” says Antonio Gracias As to how 2.1 million non-citizens received social security numbers in 2024, Gracias said the Biden administration had a policy that allowed migrants to enter the country and then register social security. “When you come in the country, if you’re illegal, there’s a couple of ways to come in. You can come in through a port of entry and you can tell them you’re afraid and they’ll give you an asylum case, you’ll get an interview, then you get in. That’s one way to do it. Another way to do it is to just go to the border … walk up to a border patrol officer and you tell them you want to come in.” “They have a couple of choices. They can charge you with a misdemeanor or a felony under 1325. Or they can make it an administrative offense. Like a parking ticket basically. They were told to do that. Make it an administrative offense under the last administration. You could walk across the border, they could release you on your own recognizance, and they give you a notice to appear at a judge. The wait time on judges are averaged six years … There’s only 700 [judges] and this is 5.5 million people.” “Once you’re in the country and you got an asylum through one of these pathways, you can apply for a work document. You file a 765, you get this form called a 766, and then the social security administration automatically sends you in the mail a social security number. No interview. No ID.”
  15. After weeks of discussion, Trump administration officials are finalizing a data-sharing agreement between the IRS and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), allowing immigration officials to use taxpayer databases to confirm the names and addresses of people who are in the country illegally.
  16. “A lot of strangely wealthy members of Congress, where I just can't connect the dots of how they became rich. How'd they get $20 million if they're earning $200,000 a year? Nobody can explain that. We're gonna try to figure it out, and certainly stop it from happening.” Elon Musk Musk has specifically taken aim at Nancy Pelosi, Mitch McConnell, Chuck Schumer and Elizabeth Warren, whose cumulative net worth totals an estimated $439 million. According to public disclosures in 2023, Schumer is worth closer to $2.3 million, while Pocahontas is worth $9 million.
  17. Jackson-Hewitt Tax Services has been caught handing out flyers in New York City advising illegal aliens on how to get up to $14,000 in tax refunds from the IRS. Jackson-Hewitt’s representatives are handing out information outside the Roosevelt Hotel migrant shelter with tax filing tips showing illegal aliens how they can get thousands of dollars from the IRS based on how many children they claim to have. A company flyer explains how illegal aliens can get a $7,650 refund if they claim one child, $12,635 if they have two, and $14,255 for three children. Elon Musk noted that this sort of fraud is costing America billions and serving to attract illegals to this country. “IRS refund fraud payments are one of several means used by the Democratic Party to attract and retain illegal immigrants in the USA. That’s why they are so opposed to DOGE stopping this. The Democratic Party is aiding and abetting fraudulent government payments to illegals in order to establish a permanent one-party majority nationally, just like they did in California. The more you look into it, the crazier it gets.” Elon Musk
