Guess Who Is To Blame For The Mexican Pirate Ship Smashing Into Brooklyn Bridge…

As we highlighted yesterday, a bizarre accident caused a Mexican Naval vessel to hit the underside of the Brooklyn Bridge while crowds looked on from a pier and traffic drove overhead on the bridge.

Scores of Mexican naval cadets were standing on the masts and rigging of the Cuauhtémoc training ship, as part of a ceremonial tradition during the ship’s departure from New York Harbor.

On tall ships like the Cuauhtémoc, it is customary for sailors, especially cadets, to climb the masts and stand on the yardarms (horizontal beams) when entering or leaving a port. This practice, known as “manning the yards,” serves both ceremonial and training purposes.

It showcases naval discipline, honors the host port, and allows cadets to demonstrate their skills in managing sails and rigging, which are integral to their training on such vessels.

The ship was in New York as part of a global goodwill tour, and the cadets were positioned aloft to perform this traditional display for spectators.

The ship reportedly lost power, causing it to drift under the bridge which was too low for it, resulting in the masts holding the sails snapping and sending cadets, and debris flying.

Many were caught up in the ropes and their own harnesses, left dangling with serious injuries, with two of them tragically dying.

The NTSB announced an immediate investigation to find out what went wrong.

Chuck Schumer, however, wasted no time in attempting to politicize the tragic accident.

Taking to X, the Senate Minority Leader insinuated that the Trump Administration is to blame.

FBI Director Patel Says Transparency on Russia Collusion Claim in ‘a Week or Two’ — ‘The Biggest D.C. Deception Game We Have Ever Seen’

During this week’s broadcast of FNC’s “Sunday Morning Futures,” FBI Director Kash Patel discussed the 2017 claim that President Donald Trump’s first presidential election win resulted from Russian collusion.

Despite the statute of limitations having expired on prosecuting any criminality, Patel told host Maria Bartiromo to expect a “wave of transparency” in a week or two.

Partial transcript as follows:

BARTIROMO: I watched it with you and Devin Nunes, when you were truth-tellers on all of this, and you were as well, Dan, throughout the Russia collusion story and the rest.

PATEL: Look, I can speak to the folks that were in our seats, our predecessors, and they intentionally failed the American public by putting on the biggest D.C. deception game we have ever seen. They said the FBI was the most storied institution for law enforcement, and it was. And it will be again very soon.

But when the likes of Comey and McCabe and Strzok and company came in here with the James Bakers of the world and intentionally lied to a federal court, only to rig a presidential election by lying to the American public and using taxpayer dollars, likely illegally, to fund this entire operation, and then withholds sculptor information from a federal court that I used to appear before to manhunt terrorists, that’s what broke the FBI.

And then, when they were caught, they lied about it. And you and a few others like Dan and others were brave enough to cover it six, seven, eight years ago. And we’re still talking about it today, because, as Congress is working rigorously with us, the Crossfire Hurricane documents are coming fast and hard. And they’re being sent there unredacted, so we can have full accountability.

And that’s how you restore what the — the trust that was lost to the American public when it comes to the FBI.

BARTIROMO: Yes, but, come on, Director. With all due respect, we have been talking about this for a long time, and I have been demanding accountability for many, many years.

One of the — you mentioned Comey, Strzok and the rest. They have got TV shows. They have got media platforms. They’re fine. There’s been no accountability.

PATEL: Well, look, it’s a fair criticism. But what I will tell people is, we weren’t here in the FBI in the last five years, when we had statute of limitations that were still in play, where we could have investigated criminal conduct. Most of these statute of limitations are 5 years old.

SCOTUS Oral Argument In Nationwide Injunction Case Illustrates Courts’ Coup Against Trump

The Supreme Court heard oral arguments on Thursday in three cases concerning challenges to President Trump’s birthright citizenship executive order. The question before the high court was not, however, the constitutionality of the EO, but rather whether the lower courts had authority to issue injunctions on a nationwide basis to bar implementation of an EO. You would be hard pressed to know that, though, from the justices’ questions — the overwhelming number of which focused instead on how to stop Trump.

“So, as far as I see it, this order violates four Supreme Court precedents,” Justice Sotomayor declared early in the argument, referring to the Trump Administration’s EO on birthright citizenship. “And you are claiming that not just the Supreme Court — that both the Supreme Court and no lower court can stop an executive from — universally from violating that holding — those holdings by this Court,” Justice Sotomayor further charged. “[W]hy should we permit those countless others to be subject to what we think is an unlawful executive action,” the justice pushed, when a nationwide injunction could immediately remedy the executive branch’s unlawful action.

Justice Kagan likewise framed the question for the Court as how to promptly halt the implementation of a president’s EO which is “dead wrong” on the law. “[E]very court has ruled against you” on the birthright citizenship question, she intoned to Solicitor General D. John Sauer. 

“If one thinks — and, you know, look, there are all kinds of abuses of nationwide injunctions, but I think that the question that this case presents is that if one thinks that it’s quite clear that the EO is illegal, how does one get to that result in what time frame on your set of rules without the possibility of a nationwide injunction?” Justice Kagan further questioned the Trump Administration.

Those excerpts were but a few exchanges during the nearly three-hour hearing, with Justices Sotomayor and Kagan monopolizing much of last week’s oral argument with their questions focused solely on a solution: In effect, how do the courts expeditiously stop Trump, other than with a nationwide injunction? In positing this question, Justice Kagan even acknowledged “there are all kinds of abuses of nationwide injunctions . . . ”

From a legal perspective, the two liberal justices have it entirely backwards: The legal question for the justices was not how do courts accomplish their goal of stopping Trump without nationwide injunctions, but rather, do courts have the authority to issue nationwide injunctions?

NIH Could Be Directed To STUDY ‘Trump Derangement Syndrome’

Legislation has been introduced to direct the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to investigate the psychological and social roots of ‘Trump Derangement Syndrome’.

Ohio Republican Rep. Warren Davidson has presented the Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) Research Act of 2025, intended to shed light on what has been a serious cultural affliction. 

Described as an “intense, irrational hysteria” triggered by the mere mention of President Trump, TDS has become a catch-all for the unhinged reactions of his critics— whether it comes in the form of spittle-flecked blue hair rants, protest effigies, or social media meltdowns.

Co-sponsored by Alabama Rep. Barry Moore, the research will look to explain why leftists lose their collective minds at the sight of a red hat.

From Schumer’s ‘Whirlwind’ Threat To Comey’s ‘8647,’ Assassination Prep Is The Left’s MO

Former FBI Director James Comey appeared to call for the assassination of President Donald Trump in a social media post Thursday, but his outburst is just one in a long line of far-left lunatics whose extreme rhetoric has laid the groundwork for violence — and assassination attempts — against conservative political figures.

The social media featured a seashell arrangement of the numbers “8647” — a clear reference to the numbers “86” meaning “to get rid of,” and “47,” the presidency number of Trump’s second term in office.

The Trump administration said it was taking the threat seriously, and the dopey former FBI chief then 1) claimed that he stumbled across the message on the beach instead of make the formation himself, which is almost certainly untrue, and 2) that he genuinely had no idea that ’86’ is associated with violence — again, hard to believe.

As Ed Martin, former acting U.S. attorney for D.C., put it: “From Schumer Whirlwind to Comey 86 you get Butler or worse … their plan is killing: they are a clear and present danger.”

In 2020, then-Senate Majority Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., threatened Supreme Court Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh, should Roe v. Wade be overturned.

“I want to tell you, Gorsuch, I want to tell you, Kavanaugh, you have released the whirlwind,
and you will pay the price,” Schumer bleated to a crowd of angry people in 2020.

By May of 2022, more than a month before the official decision came down, someone leaked a draft of the would-be Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision that would overturn Roe.

And sure enough, by early June, there was someone apparently willing to heed Schumer’s call. A California man admitted he traveled all the way from Los Angeles to Kavanaugh’s Montgomery County, Maryland, home “with the intent to kill the Supreme Court Justice.” Thankfully, he never had the chance.

GOP seeks to bar James Comey from federal positions

Lawmakers on the House Republican Study Committee (RSC) have proposed a resolution that aims to block former FBI Director James Comey from ever taking a role in the federal government again because of a now-deleted social media post that read “8647.”

Republicans, including President Trump, have interpreted Comey’s post of seashells on a beach on Thursday as a call to assassinate the 47th president.

The proposed House GOP resolution “urges the relevant authorities to take every relevant action to ensure that [Comey] is never again permitted to serve as an employee of the federal government” and requests the Justice Department “conduct a full and comprehensive investigation … and release the findings of that investigation to the relevant House Committees and the public.”

Comey, 64, has denied that the Instagram post was a call for Trump’s death and clarified in a follow-up statement that he “didn’t realize some folks associate those numbers with violence.”

“It never occurred to me, but I oppose violence of any kind so I took down the post,” he wrote.

The numeral “86” is typically understood as slang for rejecting or throwing out something or someone.

But RSC Chair Rep. August Pfluger (Texas), one of the authors of the House resolution, called Comey’s social media post a “shocking betrayal of the trust once placed in him by the American people” and accused Comey of “the unthinkable: calling for violence against our Commander-in-Chief.”

“That someone who once held one of our nation’s most sacred positions of law enforcement would incite such dangerous rhetoric is not just alarming — it’s disqualifying and un-American,” Pfluger said in a statement. “This resolution demands the accountability and transparency the American people deserve, ensuring Comey never again holds a position of public trust.”

The resolution states that “Congress must take all available action to hold Director Comey accountable, preserve the rule of law, and protect our legal institutions from those that seek to sow discord and promote violence against their political opponents.”

A Secret Service spokesperson said in a statement that the agency will “vigorously investigate anything that can be taken as a potential threat against our protectees.”

The Media Kept Rooting For A Tariff-Driven Recession. The Data Keep Disappointing Them

The propaganda press has spent the last few weeks desperately trying to convince Americans that there was an impending recession due to President Donald Trump’s pro-America agenda that included levying tariffs on countries ripping off the United States.

“Companies buying foreign products pay the tariffs imposed on them — and, as a result, face higher costs that are typically passed on to customers,” one Associated Press article read.

NBC News warned that “Trump’s new tariffs will hit lower-income households the hardest.”

CNN said, “Trump’s tariffs will be bad for you. And you, and you, and you, and you.”

Another CNN headline read: “Trump chaos has already damaged the economy. It may be too late to fix it.”

MSNBC went with an op-ed titled “Trump’s tariffs are incoherent and destructive.”

The examples are endless. But on Thursday, that narrative crumbled.

Axios, citing newly released data, reported that there are not signs “of recessionary or inflationary conditions implied by business and consumer surveys.”

The data, according to Axios, show “steady retail sales and a surprising drop in wholesale prices in April.” Data also reportedly indicate that “spending at restaurants and bars, among the few service-sector categories in the retail sales report, rose by 1.2% in April.”

Dem Rep. Shri Thanedar Faces Backlash, Embarrassment Over Trump Impeachment Push

A Democratic lawmaker’s push to impeach President Donald Trump has drawn criticism from both sides of the aisle and sparked questions about his own grasp of basic facts within his district.

Rep. Shri Thanedar (D-MI), a first-term member of Congress from Michigan, announced in late April that he would introduce articles of impeachment against President Trump.

The move came without support from Democratic leadership and has quickly become a source of controversy and ridicule, even among his own party.

Thanedar’s announcement followed an earlier statement by Rep. Al Green (D-TX), who had also vowed to introduce impeachment articles against President Trump by the end of April. Green, however, failed to follow through on his promise.

With Thanedar now taking the lead, the effort has failed to gain traction and has drawn quiet opposition from fellow House Democrats.

According to multiple reports, some Democratic lawmakers have privately dismissed Thanedar’s actions as unserious and potentially damaging to the party’s broader agenda.

Several Democrats are reportedly prepared to vote against the articles if they are brought to the floor, with some referring to the move as a “stunt.”

SHOCKING CLAIM: Did James Comey Not Only Hint at Trump’s Assassination — But Also Send a Sinister Message Tied to 9/11, Exactly 8,647 Days Later?

Disgraced former FBI Director James Comey is under federal investigation for an Instagram post that some interpret as a call to assassinate President Donald Trump.

On Thursday, the deep state operative posted a cryptic Instagram photo of seashells arranged to spell out “86 47,” with a caption that read, “Cool shell formation on my beach walk.”

But patriots and truth-seekers on social media weren’t fooled, quickly decoding the sinister message: “86” — a known slang term for “to kill” or “get rid of” — paired with “47,” a clear reference to Trump, the 47th President of the United States.

Comey deleted the post after major backlash, and he updated it with an unbelievable comment.

So Comey expects the public to believe that he, a former FBI Director, did not know the meaning of “86.”

The Secret Service, along with the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security, is now investigating the matter.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem didn’t mince words, blasting Comey on X: “Disgraced former FBI Director James Comey just called for the assassination of @POTUS Trump. DHS and Secret Service is investigating this threat and will respond appropriately.”

Even Tennessee Congressman Tim Burchett demanded action, posting, “Arrest Comey.”

Secret Service Issues Statement on Comey’s Trump Assassination Post

Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi issued a weak statement on James Comey’s assassination threat against President Trump.

“We vigorously investigate anything that can be taken as a potential threat against our protectees. We are aware of the social media posts by the former FBI Director & we take rhetoric like this very seriously. Beyond that, we do not comment on protective intelligence matters,” Secret Service spox Anthony Guglielmi said on X.

Protectees? James Comey – THE FORMER FBI DIRECTOR – threatened the sitting President of the United States.

James Comey created a media firestorm after he posted a cryptic message to his Instagram account on Thursday spelled out in seashells: “86 47”

“Cool shell formation on my beach walk,” Comey said in his caption.
