Rep. Mikie Sherrill, NJ Gubernatorial Candidate, Excluded from Her Naval Academy Graduation Due to Past Cheating Incident

A new report reveals that far-left New Jersey gubernatorial candidate Rep. Mikie Sherrill (D-NJ) was blocked from walking with her graduating class at the US Naval Academy (USNA) after being caught up in a cheating scandal.

According to records obtained by The New Jersey Globe, Sherrill’s name “was not included on the commencement program during the May 25, 1994, ceremony.

Despite the USNA’s honor code, the congresswoman said she was barred because she would not “rat out” classmates involved in the scandal.

Per The New Jersey Globe:

“I didn’t turn in some of my classmates, so I didn’t walk, but graduated and was commissioned as an officer in the U.S. Navy, serving for nearly ten years with the highest level of distinction and honor,” Sherrill said.

And, despite Sherrill making both her military service and her attendance at the Academy a cornerstone of her campaign, she has declined to allow the public to inspect any disciplinary records.

However, the Sherrill campaign rejected a request that she permit public inspection of any disciplinary records from her time at the academy.  Only Sherrill could authorize the release of those sealed records.

The report comes as the gubernatorial race tightens against her opponent, Republican Jack Ciattarelli.

Trump Signs Memorandum to Combat Domestic Terror, Organized Political Violence

President Donald Trump on Thursday signed a memorandum to combat domestic terrorism and organized political violence in the United States.

White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy Stephen Miller presented the document to Trump during a signing event in the Oval Office, saying that the executive action marks “the first time in American history that there is an all-of-government effort to dismantle left-wing terrorism, to dismantle Antifa.”

The move aims to build on an executive order signed by Trump on Sept. 22 that designates Antifa a domestic terrorism organization.

Trump attributed the executive action to a rise in left-wing violence across the United States, coming after the Sept. 10 assassination of conservative political commentator Charlie Kirk.

These allegations escalated in the wake of a Sept. 24 shooting at a Dallas Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility that left one dead and two injured. Bullets found at the scene contain anti-ICE messaging. All three victims of the attack were detainees at the facility, and no law enforcement officers were wounded in the shooting.

In a post on Truth Social after that attack, Trump wrote, “The continuing violence from Radical Left Terrorists, in the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, must be stopped.”

REPORT: Disgraced Former FBI Director James Comey Expected to SURRENDER Today, Friday Morning

On Thursday evening, the Department of Justice finally dropped the hammer on one of the most crooked swamp creatures in American history.

Disgraced former FBI Director James Comey was indicted on two felony charges: making false statements and obstruction of justice.

A grand jury in the Eastern District of Virginia returned two counts against Comey, just days after President Trump demanded that his DOJ act “now” to hold Comey and other corrupt operatives accountable.

James Comey built his career on dishonesty and abuse of power. He repeatedly lied to Congress and the FISA court to secure illegal warrants against President Trump and his allies during the hoax “Russiagate” witch hunt.

Comey knew as early as 2016 that the Steele Dossier was fabricated opposition research, yet he used it anyway to weaponize the FBI against a sitting President.

For years, he operated as a partisan hitman inside the Bureau, greenlighting lawless spying operations and leaking strategically to the press to damage Trump.

Lisa Cook Tells Supreme Court There Will Be Market “Chaos And Disruption” If She Is Fired

What do you do when you are highly underqualified for your job, which you plagiarized to get in the first place, and on top of it all you broke the law and now your current boss doesn’t want you any more? Well, you sue of course… and if that doesn’t work, you claim that the world will end if you are let go. 

Yes, that’s the traditional flowchart for government DEI hires, it’s also what Fed governor Lisa Cook is doing as she fights tooth and nail to say on at the Fed.

Fed Governor Lisa Cook’s attorneys urged the US Supreme Court to let her stay on the job while she fights President Donald Trump’s attempt to fire her, warning that even her temporary removal risks “chaos and disruption” in financial markets.

Granting the Justice Department’s request to allow Trump to immediately oust her “would sound the death knell for the central-bank independence that has helped make the United States’ economy the strongest in the world,” her lawyers wrote in a brief filed Thursday.

Or maybe just keep your client from breaking the law? Of course, since that’s impossible, you go straight to the apocalypse that will follow should Trump get to say his favorite phrase.

In her brief, Cook’s lawyers claim that Trump should have no authority to fire her, and that as of 2023, “only 12 nations with central banks allow the removal of central-bank board members at the executive’s discretion for policy reasons or for no reason at all.” Those 12 nations are Bangladesh, Chile, China, Comoros, Iran, Kazakhstan, Laos, Morocco, Thailand, Tunisia, Turkmenistan, and Vietnam.

Well, the US will make it 13. 

The DOJ has asked the Supreme Court to let Trump remove Cook, an appointee of former President Joe Biden, who has continued serving in her post since late August when Trump announced he would remove her due to mortgage fraud allegations that she’s denied.

The Supreme Court set a fast schedule for written briefs in the case but hasn’t signaled precisely when it intends to rule.

The Vaccine Schedule Finally Under Fire

Well, Donald Trump did it. He scheduled a news conference on the science of autism, what we know and what we do not, and handled it masterfully. He is profoundly aware that as a parent and the president of the United States that he can make points that his own science advisors cannot make for reasons political, sociological, and scientific.

Trump, however, knows that expecting mothers and families still have to make decisions and those decisions could affect the health and well-being of their children for the rest of their lives. Nothing is more important. Meanwhile, autism is an epidemic. Something is causing this.

There is no such thing as a genetic epidemic. Nor is this traceable to changed definitions of the term else we would see a growing distribution among adults too, which we do not. FDA head Marty Makary, normally very cautious and careful in his statements, said the straightforward thing that no one has stated as clearly: autism is preventable.

Though Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Jay Bhattacharya, and Mehmet Oz were there and speaking, it was Trump who bravely took the burden upon himself to say what vast numbers of parents and doctors suspect and know but have heretofore occupied the realm of forbidden thought. He laid out two main culprits: Tylenol for birthing mothers and infants and the packed vaccine schedule that hits tiny babies with a cocktail of shots that have never been studied in their combined effects.

Trump was extremely clear.

Don’t take Tylenol. Also the schedule should be changed so that each shot is a separate vaccine spaced out over years. Further, some shots like HepB should wait until the age of 12 if they are taken at all. This would mean no more MMR, much less an MMRV shot that adds chickenpox to the soup. It would mean one shot for measles, one for mumps, one for rubella, and so on.

The products do not currently exist in that form. The whole trajectory has been to batch them up and this happened at the same time we’ve seen an explosion in autism cases. It is not a stretch at all to assume a connection. And Trump explained the stories of so many mothers, more than half, who report dramatic and immediate behavioral and cognitive changes following a vaccine.

These people have been gaslighted for 40 years. They have been called all sorts of terrible names. The scientists who have taken up their case have been shut out of academia, professional societies, journals, and been declared nonpersons. But they never relented. Trump has personally agreed with them for 20 years, a dating of his own. He and Kennedy have long had private discussions about it.

The entire field is a landmine filled with dangers both cultural and industrial. At some point, Trump realized that if anyone was going to break the logjam on this topic, it would need to be him. So he did it, and went much further than anyone—I mean anyone!—expected.

Free Speech Reparations? Lawmaker introduces bill making feds personally liable for quashing speech

Rep. Harriet Hageman, R-Wyo., said Wednesday that she is introducing legislation that would allow Americans to file a lawsuit against employees of the federal government for violating their First Amendment rights. 

“I have introduced the First Amendment Accountability Act,” Hageman said on the “Just the News, No Noise” TV show.

The legislation would allow federal employees who violate citizens’ freedom of religion, press, assembly or speech to be held personally liable for damages, an injunction or attorneys’ fees. 

“A Federal employee who, under color of any statute, ordinance, regulation, custom, or usage, of the United States, subjects, or causes to be subjected, any citizen of the United States or any person within the jurisdiction thereof to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the First Amendment, shall be liable to the party injured in an action at law, suit in equity, or other proper proceeding for redress,” H.R. 162 reads. 

The catch: Immunity for responsible government actors

Currently, Section 1983 of the Civil Rights Act says that every person who, under color of government, subjects any citizen of the United States to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws, shall be liable to the party injured in an action at law.

Thus, a deprivation of First Amendment rights — an enumerated right in the Constitution — is often redressed through civil suits. One notable example is Tinker v. DesMoines, where school officials punished students for wearing black armbands in protest of the Vietnam War. Supreme Court Justice Fortas famously said in the 1969 case that “students do not shed their constitutional rights to freedom of speech at the schoolhouse gate. Students had the right to freedom of expression of their views, even controversial views, as long as it remained peaceful.”

But there’s a catch: the doctrine of “qualified immunity” generally protects state and local officials, including law enforcement officers, from individual liability. According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, in 1967, the Supreme Court recognized qualified immunity as a defense to §1983 claims. 

So, while the DesMoines School District could be held liable, the individual school administrators who issued the unconstitutional orders got off without facing personal liability.

China Brings Back Anal Covid Swab Testing… Just in Time for Winter Olympics

Welcome to China!

Communist China was previously giving COVID anal swabs to adults and children.

The Chinese government also gave Biden Administration officials anal COVID swab tests upon arriving in China… ‘in error.’

China supposedly stopped the invasive swab testing after Japan, the US and other countries said the virus test was “undignified” and caused “psychological distress.”

And now it’s back… just in time for the Beijing Winter Olympics.

The Sun reported:

CHINA has brought back its “undignified” anal Covid swabs just two weeks before the Beijing Winter Olympics begin.

The Communist regime claims the virus test — which involves inserting a 5cm long saline-soaked swab up a patient’s bum and rotating it — is more accurate than other on-the-spot virus tests.

FCC Threats Against Jimmy Kimmel Echo a Century of Speech Control

Days after the murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, Jimmy Kimmel joked on his show that the “MAGA gang [was] desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them, and doing everything they can to score political points from it.” This prompted Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairman Brendan Carr to threaten network broadcasting licenses, alleging that Kimmel’s show violates “public interest, convenience or necessity,” and to tell ABC that this could be resolved “the easy way or the hard way.” The following day, ABC announced the indefinite suspension of Jimmy Kimmel LIVE!—a decision it reversed on Monday after public outcry. 

Many conservatives, trying to remember where they put their keys and their beefs about cancel culture, see this as the way the cookie crumbles. Sen. Ted Cruz (R–Texas), however, believes that Carr was wrong and called this “mafioso” behavior “dangerous.” The dispute highlights a century-old tension: political control over broadcast licenses and the power to shave free speech.

Broadcast TV and radio authorizations—held by stations in the ABC network—state that private companies cannot claim ownership of the radio spectrum. Access to airwaves is a privilege, not a right. This dates to the 1927 Radio Act, proposed by then–Commerce Secretary Herbert Hoover and signed by President Calvin Coolidge. Its rules were repeated virtually verbatim in the 1934 Communications Act, amended in the 1996 Telecommunications Act, and constitute today’s law of the land.

The greatest problem with censorship is the ease with which subtle demands by politicians slant the news, particularly in the choice (or rejection) of controversial topics. But it is the law backing up the government’s powerful authority that makes that influence work. Fred Friendly’s fascinating book The Good Guys, the Bad Guys, and the First Amendment, describes one of the sensational cases where a permit to speak was actually cancelled. In the WXUR case, a Philadelphia station was operated by the highly opinionated Rev. Carl McIntire, a “suspended” Presbyterian minister. Although his organization raised $5,000 to support Israel in the Six-Day War of 1967, McIntire was considered an antisemite by the National Council of Churches, the Urban League, and the B’nai B’rith. They objected to his “intemperate attacks on other religious denominations…and political officials.” The organizations called for McIntire’s broadcast license to be revoked (denied for renewal) by the FCC because its programs “help[ed] create a climate of fear, prejudice and distrust of democratic institutions.” 

McIntire lost WXUR in 1973—the only time such a right was extinguished under the so-called Fairness Doctrine. But legions of speakers have been cowed and hushed. As early as 1929, the left-wing stations WEVD (named for Eugene V. Debs) and WCFL (owned by the Chicago Federation of Labor) were warned about espousing their radical views. WEVD was accused in a 1929 renewal at the Federal Radio Commission of being “the mouthpiece of the Socialist Party.” WCFL was branded a “propaganda” outlet. Both enterprises read the room and backed away from their edgy politics and full-time line-ups. WCFL merged into the NBC conglomerate, while WEVD—cadging donations to stay alive—limped along by sharing most of the week’s broadcast time with commercial outlets. 

One of the great 20th century judicial liberals, D.C. Senior Court of Appeals judge David Bazelon, originally supported the FCC’s attack on McIntire’s ownership of WXUR. His First Amendment rights were compromised, under the 1943 NBC Supreme Court verdict, based on the “physical scarcity” doctrine. This posits that there are only a limited number of frequencies—a limit imposed by nature, not the government—and so the regulator has to select the best content to fill those slots. It was an uncompelling argument at the time: Resources in limited supply are sold to bidders every day without FCC (or other) administrative assignment. There are actually unlimited spectral slots, not just counting what technology might deliver (tell me the top limit on satellite radio channels or Internet radio stations), but in divvying the old AM dial into finer slices.

Fired women’s coach saw male player ‘wink’ at opponent after endangering female teammate: lawsuit

San Jose State University committed employment and sex discrimination and retaliation by firing women’s volleyball associate head coach Melissa Batie-Smoose for exposing a secretly recruited male on the team, according to a new lawsuit by the Child and Parental Rights Campaign on her behalf against the California State University system.

“Punishing coaches for raising concerns about the fairness and integrity of women’s sports not only harms the individual advocate but also undermines the enforcement of Title IX’s mandate and has a chilling effect on those who seek to protect sex equality in collegiate athletics,” the suit says.

Batie-Smoose was suspended, then fired “not based on her job performance” – the suit includes her Feb. 28, 2024, reappointment letter – but “in direct retaliation for her opposition to sex discrimination and her advocacy for the fairness and equal access to programs, services, and activities for female athletes.”

She has “suffered and continues to suffer lost wages, loss of professional reputation and opportunities, emotional distress, and other damages,” and seeks reinstatement, back pay, compensatory and punitive damages.

Batie-Smoose also wants an injunction against CSU to stop future, possible Title VII and Title IX violations and implement policies, training and monitoring to “protect advocacy for the statutory rights of female athletes” and prevent retaliation against employees for raising concerns about sex-based discrimination.

The university declined to comment other than acknowledging the lawsuit.

It’s been a long and winding journey for the ex-coach, whose home was shot at days before she spoke at a state Capitol rally in February for legislation pitched as protecting girls, women and parental rights, shortly after her firing. CPRC’s Vernadette Broyles told Just the News at the time “the wheels are spinning rapidly in this process” of litigation preparation.

Department of Justice Sues 6 States Over Voter Registration Lists

The Department of Justice is suing six states for allegedly failing to provide the federal government with their voter registration lists, the Justice Department announced on Sept. 25.

The states are California, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, New Hampshire, and Pennsylvania.

States are required by federal law to provide the attorney general with voter registration records upon request, the Justice Department said.

President Donald Trump’s March 25 executive order, “Preserving and Protecting the Integrity of American Elections,” directed officials to “identify unqualified voters registered in the States.”

In the complaint, the federal government said the six states had expressed concerns about privacy protections for voters and refused to cooperate with requests for the information, including each voter’s full name, date of birth, address, state driver’s license number, and the last four digits of their Social Security number.

The cases have been filed separately in federal district courts in each of the six states.
