ANOTHER ONE: Oregon Democrat Rep. Heads to El Salvador to Demand Release of MS-13 Terrorist Kilmar Garcia

Rep. Maxine Dexter (D-Ore.) has announced she will travel to El Salvador to personally demand the release of Kilmar Abrego Garcia — a deported illegal alien with alleged ties to the recently designated terrorist organization MS-13.

This is yet another example of Democrats prioritizing criminals over law-abiding Americans.

Dexter’s press release on Friday, dripping with sanctimonious outrage, claims Garcia’s deportation is a “constitutional crisis” and a “government-funded kidnapping.” She wails that Garcia, a so-called “legal U.S. resident,” had his “due process rights ripped away” and is now languishing in a Salvadoran prison.

But let’s cut through the leftist spin: Garcia was deported in March after the Trump administration identified him as a suspected MS-13 member, a designation backed by a 2019 Maryland police report and a Department of Homeland Security investigation that flagged him for potential human trafficking in 2022.

Court documents reveal Garcia was stopped in Tennessee with eight people crammed in his car, all suspiciously claiming the same address and carrying no luggage.

He played dumb with officers, pretending he couldn’t speak English. And then there’s the 2021 protective order filed by his own wife, Jennifer Vasquez Sura, who accused him of physical abuse and documented bruises he allegedly inflicted. This is the “family man” Dexter is championing?

President Trump himself has highlighted photos of Garcia’s knuckles, reportedly sporting MS-13 tattoos, though Democrats cry “Photoshop” to dodge the truth.

“Congresswoman Maxine Dexter, M.D. (OR-03) announced that she will travel to El Salvador to demand the release of Kilmar Abrego Garcia,” according to the press release.

Van Hollen Backtracks As El Salvador Stunt Backfires Spectacularly

Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) is frantically backpedaling after his ill-conceived El Salvador publicity stunt blew up in his face. The Maryland Democrat, who initially trumpeted his mission to “rescue” a deported MS-13 gang member, is now desperately trying to rewrite the script of his adventure gone wrong.

When Van Hollen first landed in the country, he couldn’t wait to broadcast his virtuous mission to the world. “I just landed in San Salvador,” he proclaimed proudly, promising to secure the release of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, whom he claimed was “illegally abducted.” 

Fast forward a few days, and suddenly the senator’s bold crusade has morphed into a classic attempt to backpedal. While Van Hollen was making a fool of himself, the Trump administration revealed the evidence that Abrego Garcia is, in fact an MS-13 gang member, but also that he reportedly engaged in human trafficking and domestic abuse.

Suddenly, this photo-op to own Trump and his immigration policies became an epic self-own, and Van Hollen’s tone has shifted dramatically, evening accusing El Salvador president Bukele of setting him up.

“I just want to take a moment—I hadn’t planned to do this,” Van Hollen said during a hastily arranged press availability. “But as I was landing on the airplane, I got a transcript of some questions President Trump was asked at the White House today about what I would call ‘Margaritagate.’ I don’t know if you guys have been following this…”

Van Hollen tried to explain away the photo as a staged deception. “When I first sat down with Kilmar, we just had glasses of water on the table, I think maybe some coffee,” he insisted. “And as we were talking, one of the government people came over and deposited two other glasses on the table with ice and I don’t know if it was salt or sugar around the top. But they looked like margaritas.”

He also accused the Salvadoran government of manipulating the scene to make it appear as though he and the deported gang member were drinking together. “If you look at the one they put in front of Kilmar, it actually had a little less liquid than the one in front of me, to try to make it look, I assume, like he drank out of it,” Van Hollen said. “Let me just be very clear. Neither of us touched the drinks that were in front of us.”

And then he kept digging himself into a hole.

Liberal Anti-Trump Group Planning to Protest Nationwide Over Easter Weekend — Claims to Be Mobilizing Three Million People

The 50501 Movement, an anti-Trump protest organization, plans to hold a series of protests across the United States over Easter weekend.

The group claims to have 400 events scheduled nationwide on Saturday, in all 50 states. It also claims to be mobilizing over three million people.

“We are trying to protect our democracy against the rise of authoritarianism under the Trump administration,” Hunter Dunn, a spokesperson for the group, told the Washington Post.

The 50501 Movement’s name stands for “50 protests. 50 states. 1 movement.” It is self-described as being led by people who “have been on the front lines of justice, marching in support of Black Lives Matter, women’s rights, LGBTQ+ advocacy, and disability rights.”

The group first gained prominence with its initial protests on February 5, 2025, which saw over 80 protests nationwide.

In a post about the protests on their website, 50501 says, “April 19 will be a Day of Action: a nationwide grassroots response to authoritarian threats, political overreach, and the erosion of democracy.”

Member of Tim Walz Administration Arrested in Minnesota After Keying a Tesla While Walking His Dog

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has been having a grand old time bashing Elon Musk and Tesla while speaking to crowds of angry leftists in recent weeks.

One person who works under his administration apparently took the governor’s message to heart.

A government analyst in the state was just caught keying a Tesla while he was out walking his dog. He has reportedly been arrested.

The Daily Mail reports:

A member of Minnesota Governor Tim Walz’s administration has been repeatedly caught on camera allegedly vandalizing parked Tesla vehicles with his keys while out walking his dog.

Dylan Bryan Adams, 33, a fiscal policy analyst for the State of Minnesota, was captured on vehicle surveillance footage allegedly dragging a key across the exteriors of several Teslas, stripping paint and causing thousands of dollars in damage.

Authorities reportedly arrested Adams on suspicion of causing an estimated $20,000 in damage, with formal charges still pending, according to the Minnesota-based crime watch account @CrimeWatchMpls on X.

Disturbing surveillance videos showed Adams allegedly approaching the vehicles from across the street, leash in one hand, while pulling his keys from his pocket with the other.

In one clip, he allegedly carved into the rear of a Tesla.

In another, he seemingly targeted the side of the vehicle nearest the sidewalk, again using his key to scratch a deep line across the car’s body.

House Oversight Chair James Comer Denies Democrats Taxpayer Funds to Visit MS-13 Gang Member in El Salvador: ‘Spend Your Own Money’

House Oversight Committee Chairman Rep. James Comer slammed Democrats for requesting taxpayer-funded travel to El Salvador to visit a deported illegal alien with alleged ties to the MS-13 gang.

In a letter shared on X, Comer informed Democratic Reps. Robert Garcia of California and Maxwell Alejandro Frost of Florida that if they wish to meet with Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia in El Salvador, they’ll have to pay for the trip themselves.

He wrote:

It is absurd that you both displayed active hostility for over two years toward the Committee’s oversight of the Biden Border Crisis and the consequences of millions of illegal aliens entering the country, yet now, you are seeking travel at Committee expense to meet with foreign gang members.

You may be pleased to know that a Democrat Senator, Chris Van Hollen, was photographed just yesterday in El Salvador enjoying margaritas garnished with cherry slices with the foreign gang member your letter references.

If you also wish to meet with him, you can spend your own money. But I will not approve a single dime of taxpayer funds for use on the excursion you have requested.

The request came less than 24 hours after Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen traveled to El Salvador to meet with Abrego Garcia and lobby for his return to the United States.

DECLASSIFIED: Democrats’ Very Real Secret Plot to ‘ELIMINATE’ 2nd Amendment Exposed by Tulsi Gabbard

What if I told you there was a classified plan sitting on the shelf, ready to execute, designed to dismantle the 2nd Amendment?

And what if I told you the Democrats designed that plan with the intention of putting it into effect after the election, using ‘domestic counterterrorism’ as the justification?

In fact, that is exactly the case, as documents just declassified by President Trump’s Director of National Intelligence shows.

There really was a secret plot to disarm the patriots of this country who understand the 2nd Amendment doesn’t have a thing to do with deer hunting.

And the only reason we’re not facing that reality right at this very moment… is because God saw fit to wake up enough Americans to SOUNDLY DEFEAT President Trump’s challengers last November — who truly thought they would win!

Had they done so… had they AGAIN put in the steal, we might be having a very different conversation right now.

Here’s what happened instead.

Tulsi Gabbard recently announced the creation of a new task force under her direct command specifically focused on rooting out — AND EXPOSING — just these sorts of illegal, secretive, anti-American weaponizations of the U.S. federal government aimed at its own people.

Twelve days ago, the conservative advocacy group American First Legal sent a letter to Director Gabbard requesting that she look into and declassify the document known to be connected to the Biden Administration’s surveillance and censorship strategy.

At the time, Gabbard responded that she was already at work on that very thing.

Chinese intel agency official helped raise over $300,000 for Dem Boston Mayor Michelle Wu’s campaign: report

A man who helped raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for Boston Democrat Mayor Michelle Wu has been revealed to be listed by a Chinese intelligence agency as an official.

The Daily Caller News Foundation reported that Boston International Media Consulting founder Gary Yu assisted in raising over $300,000 for Wu with the help of the New England Chinese American Alliance, a civic association of which Yu serves as co-chairman.

Yu, whose Chinese name is Yu Guoliang, is listed as an official with an agency of the United Front Work Department (UFWD), a Chinese Community Party influence and intelligence service, per the outlet.

The House Select Committee on the Chinese Community Party described united front work as “a unique blend of engagement, influence activities, and intelligence operations that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) uses to shape its political environment, including to influence other countries’ policy toward the PRC and to gain access to advanced foreign technology.”

The central UFWD reports directly to the CCP’s Central Committee, is the “lead organization for coordinating and carrying out united front work both inside and outside of China,” and “oversees the united front work departments of provincial and local party committees as well as those subordinate to party committees in companies, research institutes, and other entities.”

Yu is listed as an “overseas committee member” of the Hangzhou municipal All-China Federation Of Returned Overseas Chinese (ACFROC) and has met with their officials in China multiple times, and is the chairman of the North American Hangzhou Association (NAHAUS).

Per the Daily Caller, ACFROC is an agency of the UFWD that conducts overseas influence operations such as allegedly directing Chinese community leaders to create a Chinese police station in New York City.

Democrats Normalized The Same Political Violence That Torched PA Governor’s Mansion

Political violence flared again in Pennsylvania on Sunday in another troubling example of an apparent nutjob who seemingly imbibed the leftist paradigm that legitimizes the use of force.

Cody Balmer — the Harrisburg man accused of torching the Pennsylvania governor’s mansion while Gov. Josh Shapiro, his family, and some guests slept inside — was charged Sunday with terrorism, attempted homicide, aggravated arson, and other related charges, according to a Pennsylvania State Police criminal complaint.

State police say Balmer was captured on several security cameras, and a woman contacted police and said that “her ex-paramour, Cody Balmer [38] was the individual responsible for setting the fire.” She told police he confessed to her and “wanted her to call police to turn him in.” Soon, he was outside police headquarters where he approached a state trooper and turned himself in, the complaint said.

Balmer told police he put gasoline from his lawnmower into two beer bottles and carried these homemade Molotov cocktails and a sledgehammer from his house, on a nearly four-mile walk through Harrisburg, to the mansion. Security cameras show he scaled the fence, broke a window, threw one bottle into the piano room, then broke another window, went inside, and deployed the second one to burn the dining room.

Balmer told police he knew it was possible Shapiro could be inside the mansion and might get injured, and when asked what he would have done if Shapiro had caught Balmer inside the home, Balmer “advised he would have beaten him with his hammer,” the complaint said. “During the interview, Balmer admitted to harboring hatred towards Governor Shapiro.”

“This type of violence is not OK,” Shapiro said in a press conference on Sunday, and he is right. But this type of violence is celebrated by Democrats and their left-wing media.

Taylor Lorenz’s Fawning Over Alleged United Assassin Is Normalizing Political Violence 

On Sunday’s episode of CNN’s MisinfoNation, self-proclaimed “journalist” Taylor Lorenz played apologist for alleged murderer Luigi Mangione — who is accused of gunning down a health care CEO in cold blood. Lorenz shamelessly described Mangione as a “morally good man” and a “revolutionary,” even cracking jokes when addressing criticisms leveled at him.

But there is nothing humorous about murder. Lorenz’s dismissive attitude is not just tasteless; it’s part of a broader, calculated effort by the left to normalize political violence and numb the American public to its rising frequency.

“It’s hilarious to see these millionaire media pundits on TV clutching their pearls about someone stanning a murderer when this is the United States of America, as if we don’t lionize criminals, as if we don’t have, you know, we don’t stan murderers of all sorts, and we can give them Netflix shows,” Lorenz joked. “There’s a huge disconnect between the narratives and the angles that mainstream media pushes and what the American public feels.”

Lorenz continued: “You’re going to see women especially that feel like, Oh my God, right? Like, here’s this man, who, who’s revolutionary, who’s famous, who’s handsome, who’s young, who’s smart. He’s a person that seems … like this morally good man, which is hard to find.”

Lorenz even likened the fandom around Mangione to that surrounding President Donald Trump: “They want somebody to take on this system. … They want someone to tear down these barbaric establishment institutions.”

But UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was not a “barbaric establishment institution.” He was the father of two, he was someone’s son, and he was the victim of a murder. But that matters naught to Lorenz, who previously went viral after she said she felt “joy” when learning of Thompson’s murder.

But the left seeks to make political violence acceptable. It’s classic Marxist theory, as explained in these pages by J.T. Young.

NY AG Letitia James Caught in a Potential Fraud Case of Her Own

New York Attorney General Letitia James is now facing questions surrounding a real estate transaction she executed in August 2023—just weeks before she filed a high-profile civil fraud lawsuit against President Donald Trump.

The document in question, a Specific Power of Attorney signed by James, is raising legal concerns about whether she may have misrepresented her intent to establish a principal residence in Virginia, potentially impacting her eligibility to hold office in New York or exposing her to legal liability.

The issue was flagged by Sam E. Antar, a former certified public accountant and convicted fraudster who now works in forensic accounting.

Antar gained notoriety in the 1980s for his role as the CFO of Crazy Eddie, a now-defunct electronics retailer involved in one of the largest financial fraud cases of the decade.

After a plea deal, Antar turned his efforts toward uncovering white-collar crime.

In a recent post on his website White Collar Fraud, Antar published documents tied to James’s real estate transaction in Norfolk, Virginia.
