“You are not in a bubble here at the courts. There are real world events happening. … How does the court feel about potential changes, term limits, ethics codes that are enforced by someone in ways that it isn’t now?” Bream asked.
In response, Gorsuch said, “Shannon, you’re not going to be surprised that I’m not going to get into what is now a political issue during a presidential election year. I don’t think that would be helpful.”
He added, “I have one thought to add, it is that the independent judiciary … means that when you’re unpopular, you can get a fair hearing under the law and under the Constitution.”
Gorsuch emphasized that the judiciary’s role is to protect Americans’ rights against government persecution.

Wall Street is likely to be a bloodbath today. The first warning signs were on Friday, culminating on Sunday night when all hell broke loose in Asia. The Nikkei had its worst day since 1987, sinking nearly 4,000 points. It suspended trading after sinking nearly eight percent. South Korea’s stock exchange halted all sell orders as a looming wave of brutality is expected to hit Wall Street this morning. We’ll update this post accordingly, but a drubbing on the New York Stock Exchange shouldn’t surprise anyone. Also, don’t look at your 401ks...
Wall Street is in turmoil on Monday, with mounting fears of a slowing U.S. economy triggering a global sell-off. Early trading saw the S&P 500 plummet by 4%, following its worst week in over three months. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 1,197 points, or 3%, by 9:35 a.m. Eastern, while the Nasdaq composite plunged 5.5%, placing it 15% below its peak from last month. Japan’s Nikkei 225 kicked off Monday by nosediving 12.4%, marking its worst performance since the Black Monday crash of 1987.

Report Provides Evidence of Devastating Influence of DEI on U.S. Military Operations My sources are only inside the DoD, but I have to presume this is happening elsewhere in the federal government. When you consider the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is on record as selecting USAF pilots based solely on the color of their skin, and when you see Secretary of the Army Wormuth building a force of female Infantrymen (women), none of this is really surprising. When Trump v2.0 comes to office, selecting the best possible SecDef must be one of his absolute top priorities, and whomever that is must immediately take a firehose to clean out the Augean Stables that the Pentagon has sadly become.

The potential misuse of Jigsaw’s tools is exacerbated by Google’s well-documented political biases. Unless you happen to live under a rock on a distant planet, it will come as little surprise to learn that Google exhibits a pronounced left-leaning bias. In the 2020 election cycle alone, Google’s parent company, Alphabet, donated millions to Democratic candidates and committees. This financial support creates a conflict of interest, which would influence the impartiality of a tool like Altitude.

Biden Freezes Immigrant Flight Program After Massive Fraud Uncovered The problem is that the program is a massive abuse of Congressional authority. Immigration parole was designed to fill some cracks in the system that facilitated people with genuine humanitarian problems to enter the U.S. with a lot less red tape. Allowing 30,000 immigrants a month from four countries to enter the country is an appalling abuse of Congressional authority. At one time, it was discussed among Republicans whether Biden should be impeached for abuse of power because of that program.

They can fly to Canada without a visa, and the trek to New York is very doable. There is little protection on the northern border, not that there is any on the southern border. Image

He also fired the prosecutor who negotiated them. Image
At least $239 million in taxpayer money has landed in the hands of terrorists since the Biden Administration’s botched withdrawal from Afghanistan.

UW-Milwaukee suspends pro-Palestine student groups after they said Hillel, other Israel-supporting groups will be 'treated' as 'extremist criminals' The suspension could result in loss of funding for the student groups or the removal of the group’s ability to use campus buildings for meetings...

Abortion receives surprisingly brief attention in a reflection on population ageing and depopulation. In Ireland alone, there were an estimated 10,000 abortions in 2023, that is, between one-sixth and one-fifth of the number of registered births, while similar or higher figures are reported in many other countries. Clearly, abortion causes the loss of unique unborn lives, and is a fundamental moral issue as well as having demographic implications.

Tens of thousands of tax dollars, earmarked for ending gun violence in the nation's crime-infested capital, were instead squandered on socially programming children as young as six-years-old to identify as "transgender" — and even take steps towards "transitioning," according to a months-long Townhall investigation. These indoctrination efforts include a so-called "trans kids" summer camp.

NZ: The pandemic-vaccine industry is desperate; for the next “pandemic” they want to use police and even NATO to force vaccination on people The question everyone should be asking is why do they feel the need to force vaccinate populations using law enforcement and even the military. It is because their vaccines are unsafe and ineffective. So much so that few are willing to risk their lives by allowing themselves to be injected and will resist in every way they can. The pandemic-vaccine industry knows we will not be tricked by their psychological operations again and our pushback against government vaccination policies will be even stronger the next time around.
