Father Of DC Shooting Suspect Was Democrats’ Honored Guest At Trump Congressional Address

The father of the suspected gunman in the murder of two Israeli Embassy staffers at the Capital Jewish Museum on Wednesday, was the honored guest of a far-left lawmaker at President Trump’s joint address to Congress back in March, the New York Post reported.

Eric Rodriguez is an anti-Trump SEIU member who also spoke at a Democrat press conference ahead of Trump’s address.

His son, accused killer Elias Rodriguez, 30, has been charged with two counts of first-degree murder after allegedly gunning down Yaron Lischinsky, 28, and Sarah Milgrim, 26, who were about to become engaged.

“Eric Rodriguez was our guest during the President’s Joint Speech to Congress, but we don’t know his family,” a spokesperson for Rep. Jesús “Chuy” García (D-Ill.) told the Post Thursday night.

García in March had described Rodriguez as “an outspoken advocate against attacks on veterans’ services and the rights of unionized federal employees.”

His mention of “attacks on veteran services” appeared to be a reference to the Department of Government Efficiency’s work eliminating of waste fraud and abuse from the system.

“Eric represents the very best of our community — someone who has served his country, continues to serve his fellow veterans and fights every day to protect the dignity of working people,” the congressman said in a statement on March 3. “His presence at the Joint Address is a powerful statement: we will not sit back while veterans and workers are treated as political pawns.”

According to the Post, Rodriguez also appeared in a Service Employees International Union (SEIU) video that same day, speaking as an Iraq War vet and an employee with the Veterans Affairs Department.

The SEIU, one of the largest labor unions in North America, donates millions of dollars to left-wing Democrat politicians who promote government expansion and higher taxes.

“I’ve been with the VA for three years, and the reason why I’m in Washington, DC, is because I’m concerned about what Donald Trump, Elon Musk and DOGE are doing to the VA system,” he said in the SEIU video. 

Rodriguez was also a featured speaker at an emotional Democrat press conference on March 4.

Flanked by Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.), House minority leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) and other Democrat lawmakers, Rodriguez appeared on the verge of tears as he decried the DOGE cuts.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson Brands Trump a Racist ‘Monster’ After DOJ Probes His Anti-White Discrimination

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson has described President Trump as a “monster” for launching a federal investigation against him.

Speaking at a church in Woodlawn, Illinois over the weekend, Johnson said he preferred to hire black people because they are more generous than whites.

This has since led to Department of Justice opening an investigation into Johnson for racial discrimination.

Addressing a press conference on Wednesday, Johnson said that Trump’s investigation was the result of his own racial animus:

As far as, you know, the president’s animus towards women, people of color, working people, we have always known who he has been. This is not a surprise. He’s a monster.

We have the most diverse administration in the history of Chicago, and he is threatened by that.

You can tell when someone is fearful is because they act out. We have a president that is screaming and having tantrums right now because we have an administration that reflects the city of Chicago, but he would much rather have administrations that reflect the country club. Period.

He is most comfortable around people who think and look like him.

Similarities in media coverage of viral moments in Washington draw scrutiny

Coverage of the White House and Congress has come under greater scrutiny in recent years as the media landscape has shifted and America’s politics have become more polarized in what analysts see as a more partisan environment and shifts in the news industry as it has evolved from radio broadcasts and newspapers to around-the-clock coverage on cable news channels and social media.

Blow-ups during meetings in the Oval Office, quips from lawmakers in the hallways of Congress and in hearing rooms and testy exchanges between politicians regularly attract widespread attention in headlines and on social media where users are fed content they will stay engaged with and seek more of.

The landscape of the news business has also shifted drastically since cable news burst onto the scene to today’s backdrop with a seemingly endless supply of digital outlets, newsletters, podcasts and social media accounts all competing for a limited supply of attention and advertising dollars that make up the bulk of revenue for a wide range of publications.

It is a challenging dynamic for newsrooms to operate in as media companies of all sizes face major questions about their ability to keep reporters on staff and trying to keep the public informed as revenue streams disappear or get shifted to social media.

Harmeet Dhillon Exposes DOJ’s ‘Color Revolution’ Wing: Secret ‘Resistance’ Memos, ‘Unhappy Hours,’ & ‘Crying Sessions’

In a revealing interview with Tucker Carlson, Harmeet Dhillon, Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights Division, pulled back the curtain on the entrenched resistance within the Department of Justice, which she described as a stronghold of the deep state. Dhillon revealed a culture of anti-MAGA defiance, marked by resistance memos circulating among career lawyers, instructing them to obstruct directives through bureaucratic tactics. Dhillon also recounted a hilarious scene of open crying sessions in the DOJ halls and mass resignations as hundreds of attorneys recoiled at her push to align the division with the Trump administration’s agenda.

TUCKER CARLSON: Your assistant attorney general, one of the greatest appointments, from my perspective, in this administration, running the civil rights division. What was it like when you showed up? What did you find when you got there?

HARMEET DHILLON: The civil rights division is the color revolution wing of the Department of Justice. Okay, whether it’s a Republican or a Democrat administration, there are career lawyers who are very focused on a particular agenda there. So, when I showed up, or when I was, when the president was elected, I should say, there were over 400 attorneys in the civil rights division and about 200 staff, so a total of about 600 people. Kristen Clark, my predecessor, anti-police, open racist, got in trouble during her term for not being candid with the Senate during her confirmation hearings on some issues. So, she had a particular agenda. She got in there and she pursued that agenda aggressively. And she had all the staff to do it.

Now, under the first Trump administration, my predecessor in that job pretty much left it untouched. He told me he kind of, like, there were the career people there, if he wanted to get something done, they went to the U.S. attorney’s offices. I came in with a different perspective. I think it’s part of the promise of this administration under President Trump to fundamentally reform the government in the way that the people voted for. That means, in the civil rights division, we should be standing up for the civil rights of all Americans, not just some Americans. We shouldn’t be weaponizing the law in a particular way. We should apply those federal civil rights statutes, many of which were passed by and signed by Republican presidents and Republican administrations, evenly, and the government shouldn’t be putting its heavy thumb on the scale in most cases. But in egregious instances, we should step forward and right these wrongs.

But what I found there was a number of lawyers, I mean hundreds of lawyers, who were actively in resistance mode. There were memos out there by former government lawyers telling current government lawyers in my department how to resist if you’re given a direct order. Ask for clarification, send 20 emails, question it, slow down your response time, say it can’t be done. So, I was actually looking out for that when I came. I did my week of training after getting confirmed by the Senate. And then the next week, I was like, “Okay, guys, it’s time to get to business. I want everyone to be very clear what the agenda is here.”

Media Picks a Fight With Trump Over South Africa – Big Mistake

The establishment media has gotten itself into another fine mess, as the late, great Oliver Hardy would have put it. And, once again, it is destined for humiliation at the hands of President Donald Trump. On May 21, he hosted Cyril Ramaphosa, the president of South Africa, at the White House. This meeting came on the heels of 59 Afrikaners arriving in the United States – white South Africans of primarily Dutch descent who chose to flee a regime that is openly hostile toward them.

At one point during the encounter between the two leaders, Trump made his South African counterpart watch a video of a black South African politician, at a packed outdoor rally, inciting the murder of white farmers.

The US leftist media was not happy, but they have already picked out the paint and chosen the corner into which they will paint themselves – again. As if any more proof were needed that there is no independent journalism on the left and that these media outfits all draw from the same progressive talking points, the rebukes were swift and all but identical.

Trump’s claim that the white farmers of South Africa are the victims of genocide was attacked by much of the left-wing legacy media as “unfounded,” “false,” “unsubstantiated,” etc.

The New York Times and ABC News, in particular, took a drubbing on the X social media platform. Their attempts to deny the existence of a deadly situation for which the evidence is copious and beyond rational dispute drew much scorn and ridicule.

Democrats Don’t Get The Benefit Of The Doubt On Biden’s Health, ‘86,’ Or Anything Else

Joe Biden’s inner circle can’t stress this enough: Before last Friday, the former president had never been diagnosed with prostate cancer. Pinky swear.

A Biden spokesman “clarified” the “timeline” in a statement to multiple news outlets after widespread speculation that Biden’s Sunday cancer announcement wasn’t so much a new diagnosis as a new disclosure.

Even Democrat doctors came out of the woodwork this week to note that prostate cancer and metastasis to the bone don’t just happen overnight, meaning this cancer isn’t “new.” Either Biden and his team of elite health care practitioners are incompetent, or they covered up his diagnosis. So now his PR people are doing a full-court press to convince the suspicious public that Biden’s handlers aren’t lying liars who lie — they’re just really bad at their jobs.

This isn’t the only Democrat pinky swear of the week. Americans also got assurances from former FBI Director James Comey, who recently posted a threatening message to Donald Trump on Instagram in the form of a photograph of seashells spelling out “86 47.” We all know what that means. And considering a would-be assassin already shot Trump in the head and another tried to snipe him on the golf course, Comey’s message could credibly incite violence.

But no, seriously, guys, he had no idea what “86” connoted (even though he investigated the mafia for years). He also definitely just found those shells on the beach and had nothing to do with arranging them. And it’s crazy to think that this is all a cynical ploy to sell more copies of his weird new novel that’s out this week.

Biden doesn’t get the benefit of the doubt for the same reason Comey doesn’t get the benefit of the doubt for the same reason the Democrat Party and their media enablers don’t get the benefit of the doubt. They lie about everything.

This wouldn’t even be their first lie about Biden’s health. CNN propagandist Jake Tapper’s new book this week is yet another reminder that the corporate media and Democrats couldn’t even be trusted to tell the truth about Biden’s decline that we could see with our own eyes — no PSA test or urologist needed. When Americans observed Biden wandering aimlessly away from photo ops, falling down stairs, appearing to doze off in interviews, trailing off mid-sentence, slurring his words, and looking for a deceased congresswoman, Democrats, including fake journalists like Tapper, engaged in a cover-up to prop up Biden and hurt Trump. They said Biden was “sharp” and “focused,” “the best Joe Biden ever,” and that he just had a “bad debate.” When Lara Trump noted the cognitive decline, Tapper accused her of “mocking his stutter.” It was all a lie.

Before denying his “86” stunt, James Comey was a key architect of the lie that Trump colluded with Vladimir Putin to steal the 2016 election, also known as the Russia collusion hoax. Days before Trump’s first inauguration, then-FBI Director Comey briefed Trump on the bogus Steele dossier, a leak of which gave the corrupt media just the hook they needed to peddle the nonsense oppo research. Comey later used this dossier as a pretext to spy on the Trump campaign through Carter Page. Comey also attempted to ensnare Mike Flynn, Trump’s national security adviser, in a perjury trap through an ambush interview to sabotage the Republican administration. As my colleague Matt Kittle so eloquently put it, “Comey tried to ‘86′ Trump’s first term.” It was all a hoax.

Trump Derangement Syndrome to be studied under new bill… how to tell if you’ve got symptoms

For years MAGA haters have been erupting in fits of rage when responding to statements made by the president.

Now, his allies in Congress want studies done to see if his left-wing opponents are actually suffering from a condition they have dubbed ‘Trump Derangement Syndrome.’

Symptoms of so-called TDS are said to include an intense, often irrational hostility or obsession with Donald Trump, his actions, or his supporters.

The term is often used pejoratively by Trump fans to dismiss those making criticisms of the president.  

It lacks a formal psychological or medical basis but is based on the extreme political animus toward the 45th and 47th president. 

Trump has been called an enemy of democracy, a fascist and a dictator akin to Hitler by his political opponents, including from some within his own party.

He has been so heavily demonized that his actions – maybe even his mere existence – has sparked nationwide protests, effigy burnings and two assassination attempts.

So to finally get to the bottom of what is fueling the outrage, Rep. Warren Davidson, R-Ohio, introduced the Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) Research Act of 2025 on Thursday to study the phenomenon.

‘TDS has divided families, the country, and led to nationwide violence—including two assassination attempts on President Trump,’ Davidson told the Daily Mail in a statement.

Obama Judge Says to Hell with the Supreme Court, Orders Trump DOJ to Turn Over Docs Related to Decision to Revoke ‘Protected Status’ for Hundreds of Thousands of Migrants

US District Court Judge Edward Chen, an Obama appointee, said to hell with the Supreme Court and still ordered the Trump DOJ to turn over documents related to its decision to revoke protected status for hundreds of thousands of Venezuelan migrants.

Judge Chen said the Supreme Court’s ruling today is not a factor and insisted on a deadline tonight for the Trump DOJ to turn over the documents.

The US Supreme Court on Monday lifted a lower court’s block on President Trump’s order to revoke ‘protected status’ for hundreds of thousands of migrants living in the US.

The high court allowed the Trump Administration to strip approximately 350,000 Venezuelans currently in the US of their ‘protected status.’

Ketanji Brown Jackson was the lone Supreme Court justice to dissent.

In March, San Francisco-based Judge Edward Chen issued a stay on Trump’s order to revoke Temporary Restricted Status (TPS) for Venezuelans who arrived to the US on Biden’s parole program.

Judge Chen, temporarily paused Trump’s plans to end Biden’s TPS program.

The DOJ argued that the parole programs were discretionary and it is up to the government to decide when it can cut the program.

It was previously reported that President Trump was set to strip the status of 532,000 migrants living in the United States who were flown in on Joe Biden’s parole program.

Recall that Joe Biden brought in more than half a million migrants from Haiti, Cuba, Nicaragua, and Venezuela on his CHNV program.

House investigators question FBI witness about James Comey using ‘honeypot’ spy on Trump campaign

House Judiciary Committee investigators have spoken to an FBI whistleblower about FBI Director James B. Comey’s alleged off-the-books spying on President Trump’s 2016 campaign.

The whistleblower, a former supervisory special agent, previously said in a protected disclosure to the committee that Mr. Comey sent a “honeypot” to spy on the Trump campaign before launching the now-infamous Crossfire Hurricane operation.

A “honeypot” is an undercover operative who feigns sexual or romantic interest to obtain information from a target.

Mr. Comey, a fierce Trump critic who was booted from the FBI by the president, was also recently questioned by the Secret Service for a social media post widely interpreted as a threat against Mr. Trump.

Mr. Comey posted a photo on his Instagram account of seashells on the beach arranged to spell “86 47” with the comment, “Cool shell formation on my beach walk.”

The numeral “86” can refer to removing or killing. Mr. Trump is the 47th president.

The whistleblower interviewed by the Judiciary Committee described the “honeypot” operation in a protected disclosure in October. The disclosure was delivered through whistleblower attorney Kurt Siuzdak, as The Washington Times first reported.

The FBI veteran said two female FBI undercover agents infiltrated Mr. Trump’s 2016 campaign at high levels and were directed to act as “honeypots” while traveling with Mr. Trump and his campaign staff.

U.S. Coast Guard REJECTS Chuck Schumer’s Idiotic Suggestion That Trump Admin. to Blame for Mexican Ship Accident in NYC

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer actually tried to blame the Trump administration for the Mexican Navy accident over the weekend, where a tall training ship crashed into the Brooklyn Bridge.

This is definitive proof that Schumer’s criticisms of Trump have just become a reflex that is cartoonishly stupid.

He tried to imply that DOGE related cuts at the U.S. Coast Guard were somehow to blame.

The Coast Guard has responded, and they have completely rejected this idiocy.

FOX News reports:

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer suggested that the Department of Government Efficiency may be at least partly responsible for a Mexican navy tall ship crashing into the Brooklyn Bridge on Saturday night.

Schumer made the claim in a press release on Sunday, saying he had been briefed on the details of the deadly crash, which left two people dead and over a dozen more injured. Schumer argued that a U.S. Coast Guard system may have been operating at partial capacity due to a DOGE hiring freeze at the Department of Homeland Security, but the Coast Guard itself says the system was “fully functional during the incident.”…

The Coast Guard rejected Schumer’s claim in a statement of its own. Furthermore, there were no other ships involved in Saturday’s crash that would have involved the VTS.

The Coast Guard told Fox News Digital that VTS was “fully functional during the incident and operating in accordance with established procedures to manage commercial traffic and facilitate safe navigation.”

Schumer even posted this stupidity on Twitter/X and still hasn’t taken it down.
