(None Dare Call It) Treason of the Judiciary

Thursday, April 24, was a day like any other day – the sun came up, the sun went down, and Donald Trump was hit with at least three nationwide injunctions by federal district court judges.

That’s just the way it goes if you are a president who wants to take back America from the entrenched left-wing bureaucracy and restore common sense to government before it is too late.

The danger of the bureaucracy was predicted by Julien Benda in his 1927 book “The Treason of the Clerks,” which warned of the danger of the intellectual class adopting political passions that had previously been the sole domain of the masses. We see this most distinctly today in the federal bureaucracy, which I dare say has the greatest concentration of degree-holders from Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Columbia (and the like) of any sector in the nation, other than the incestuous universities themselves.

The treason that Benda described was the loss of independence of thought and dispassionate reason by intellectuals, and the accompanying subservience of intellect to political passions. During Trump’s first term, I wrote a column describing the danger that Benda had foreseen:

Benda wrote at the beginning of the age of mass communication, and yet he already saw that “political passions have attained a universality never before known. … Thanks to the progress of communication and, still more, to the group spirit, it is clear that the holders of the same political hatred now form a compact impassioned mass, every individual of which feels himself in touch with the infinite number of others, whereas a century ago such people were comparatively out of touch with each other and hated in a ‘scattered’ way” …

It seems that we are now living out Benda’s worst nightmare — an age of manipulation of the masses by those who think they know better — whether you call them the “deep state,” the “opposition party,” “the national elite,” “the entrenched bureaucracy,” or just “the establishment.”

And for the past 10 years, they have turned their hatred on Donald Trump. Without rhyme or reason, they fight him on every reform and arm themselves with invented scandal and fake news.

Now, in Trump’s second term, we see that the bureaucracy has a close ally in the judiciary – not one judge, but multitudes that aim to preserve the status quo of liberal governance. If that wasn’t clear before April 24, there was no room for doubt after the day was filled with one court ruling after another telling Trump to “stand back and stand by” rather than to exercise his lawful power as president.

From One Fake Left-wing Hysteria to the Next

The decade-old age of fables like Russian collusion, laptop disinformation, or the pangolin/bat cause of COVID is not over; it is just hitting midstream.

For much of April, amid stock downturns, in the classical paranoid style, we were assured by the Wall Street Journal news reporters and the liberal press that Trump had either a) guaranteed an inevitable recession, b) engineered a losing trade war he likely regretted, c) crashed the stock market, d) lost his once majority favorability ratings, e) mostly had a failed first 100 days, or f) all of the above.

Some of us thought these diagnoses and prognoses were absurd. How in mediis rebus, during a radical counterrevolution never quite seen before, could anyone issue such bleak predictions? Would these same observers have said the U.S. was doomed to lose World War II after the bleak first five months of mostly failure in the Pacific, or North Africa, after the utter U.S. army disaster at the Kasserine Pass?

When the Biden administration compiled two consecutive quarters of negative GDP—the supposedly classic definition of a recession—most of these same pundits assured us that the data was meaningless and irrelevant. The same left-wing media throng insisted Biden was in his cognitive prime until hours before he abdicated from the ticket under pressure. They swore to us that Robert Mueller’s “walls were closing in” on Donald Trump, who would legitimately go to jail, buried by 93 lawfare indictments.

As for their polls showing that Trump was all but through after three months in office, almost all of them were not just off in the 2016 presidential race, but again in 2020. And given the chronic temptation to warp polls to create Democratic momentum and fundraising, they rigged their polls yet again in 2024—even when they knew in disgrace that they were ruining their brand. A former Harris campaign official just admitted that internal polls never showed Harris ahead—even as the majority of polls predicted her victory.

So why would anyone believe any of these people? Take the now-defunded Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Its recent NPR/PBS News/Marist poll assured us that 45 percent of the public gave Trump an F for his first 100 days, with only 42 percent expressing approval of his job so far.

But this is the same bunch that also assured us in its final authoritative 2024 election poll, on the very eve before the voting, that Kamala Harris would win the race by 4 points—a lead proverbially “outside the margin of error.” (The next day, she lost the popular vote by 1.5 percent or 2,284,952 votes and the Electoral College by 312-226). The public broadcasting polling partnership was off 5.5 points, perhaps suggesting that it wished to aid the Harris campaign more than either adhering to professional and ethical norms or fearing to lose what little was left of its reputation.

As soon as the Washington Post and the New York Times issued their dismal Trump bias polls, observers quickly pointed out they had, by intent, vastly underpolled those who voted for Trump in 2024. In contrast, the polls with the best 2024 records had Trump’s 100-day approval ratings near even or positive: Rasmussen was 50-49%, and the joint national surveys by Insider Advantage and Trafalgar Group had Trump up at 100 days, 46-44%.

DESPERATE: Crooked NY Attorney General Letitia James Announces ANOTHER Lawsuit Against President Trump As Her Own Legal Troubles Pile Up

America’s most corrupt attorney general is getting quite desperate as she fights off credible allegations of mortgage fraud.

As the New York Post reported, New York Attorney General Letitia James announced during a National Action Network rally in Harlem on Saturday that she and other Democratic attorneys general will sue the Trump administration’s Department of Health and Human Services over so-called healthcare funding cuts.

“The White House is threatening our way of life in so many ways, and I just want you to know that in the coming days we will be filing a lawsuit against them (HHS),” James told the attendees at a National Action Network rally in Harlem.

“All of these funds and more!” James yelled. “We got to stand up, and that’s why Democratic attorneys general will be joining me in filing this lawsuit in the coming days.”

She refused to provide any additional details regarding the lawsuit.

This is far from James’s first frivolous lawsuit against the Trump administration. Back in March, James and a coalition of twenty other Democrat state attorneys general (and the District of Columbia AG) filed suit against the Trump administration to stop the reduction-in-force (RIF) layoffs of just under half the department’s over 4,000 workers that Secretary Linda McMahon announced.

60 Minutes prepares to drop bombshell Trump report despite lawsuit threat

CBS is planning to drop a bombshell report on Donald Trump despite the ongoing $20 billion lawsuit leveled against the network by the president. 

The broadcaster has said it will be running a segment on Sunday titled ‘The Rule of the Law’, which scrutinizes Trump’s executive orders against law firms. 

‘On the campaign trail, President Trump vowed to wield the power of the presidency to go after his perceived enemies,’ the program description reads. 

‘Now in the White House, Trump is using executive orders to target some of the biggest law firms in the country that he accuses of “weaponizing” the justice system against him.’ 

Taking aim at CBS and its parent company, Paramount Global, Trump’s lawsuit accuses producers of editing an October interview with Harris to sway public opinion in her favor. 

The broadcast channel is also facing a probe by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) into whether the interview violated ‘news distortion’ rules.

Complainants said the station broke the law by cherry picking only a portion of Harris’ answer to a question about Middle East policy to present her in a favorable light. 

Sunday’s 60 Minutes segment will be hosted by veteran reporter Scott Pelley, who shocked viewers last month when he issued a blistering criticism of his own corporate bosses live on air.

Want To Know The Truth Behind Those Anti-Trump Polls?

You’ve no doubt heard the media narrative about President Trump’s poll numbers according to most pollsters—you know, the ones who got the 2024 election so wrong,

Make no mistake about it — the legacy media is at it again with their dishonest polling tactics against President Trump. But this time, their deceptive game has been called out by none other than former House Speaker Newt Gingrich.

Appearing on Hannity Thursday night, Gingrich exposed how the media’s recent polling showing Trump’s approval dropping is nothing but smoke and mirrors. The reality? These polls are deliberately skewed to paint a false narrative about Trump’s standing with the American people.

Let’s look at the facts. The same media outlets that got it wrong in 2024—ABC News, CBS News, and CNN—are now pushing polls that show Trump’s approval is declining from his February high of 53%. 

But are they really?

“I got a little preview about poll numbers that are coming out tomorrow, and from both Robert Cahaly and Matt Towery, who I respect a lot,” Hannity said. “And as I suspected, all of the polls that the media has been pushing on the American people about Donald Trump are false, and that’s what the early indications are.”

He pointed out the absurdity of the numbers being hyped by the media, especially when far-left figures such as Chuck Schumer were polling in the teens. “All the pollsters that got the election in ‘24 wrong and got every election about Donald Trump wrong—all of those people—the ones saying, ‘Oh, he’s plummeting.’ But meanwhile, they’re ignoring Chuck is at 17% and the Democrats are in the 20s. I’m trying to understand that logic. Can you help me out?”

Gingrich didn’t mince words.

“Well, I mean, first of all, they’re just plain lying,” Gingrich replied. “And I think we’ve got to be tougher and clearer about how dishonest these people are.”

He cited conversations with veteran GOP pollsters, pointing to the way poll samples are rigged to undercount Republicans. “The fact is, and I talked to John McLaughlin and I talked to Matt Towery about this, they have some polls there that are like 27% Republican when Trump got 50% of the vote. So if you add the 23 points they didn’t test, suddenly he’s in great shape. This is deliberate. It is willful.”

OUTRAGEOUS: Deranged Maine High School Teacher Calls for Killing President Trump and ALL of His Fans in Series of Incredibly Sick Posts – Remains Employed by Her School

A deranged high school teacher in Maine called for killing Trump and his God-fearing supporters in a bizarre rant. Yet, she remains employed by the school despite her remarks.

As the New York Post reported, Waterville Senior High School English teacher JoAnna St. Germain went on Facebook Tuesday and demanded the Secret Service “coordinate” and kill every single one of Trump’s fans along with the president.

“The Secret Service has the perfect opportunity, if they choose to step up and take it,” she wrote. “You are the ones with the power. Coordinate. Take out every single person who supports Trump’s illegal, immoral, unconstitutional acts.”

Disturbingly, St. Germain also claimed she was “not talking about assassinating a president,” arguing that a president is “a person duly elected by the American people” (Which Trump was). The disturbed individual instead believes that the election does not count because Trump is now “leading a fascist dictatorship.”

“If you step up, we can avoid a civil war,” she ranted. “I’m not talking about assassinating a president. A president is a person duly elected by the American people. “Tr*mp has shamelessly bragged openly about stealing the election.”

“He is making plans to give himself a third term. I’m talking about Americans recognizing a fascist dictatorship and standing against it.”

Of course, St. Germain is such a sick coward that she wants others to suffer for her desire.

“If I had the skill set required, I would take them out myself,” she claimed.

St. Germain made clear that she was well aware she could lose her position for her words against Trump, but continued to portray herself as a “fearless warrior.”

“I posted knowing I’d likely lose my job and benefits,” she wrote. “I’m not backtracking a single thing. I believe Trump and every sycophant he has surrounded himself with needs to die,” she wrote.

The Waterville Public Schools Superintendent, Peter Halle, issued a statement on Wednesday responding to St. Germain’s infuriating remarks. The statement was later shared by the outlet The Maine Wire.

“Please know that I have taken steps to ensure everyone’s safety and am, along with the appropriate authorities, actively investigating the incident,” Hallen wrote.

“While I cannot comment on personal matters, I assure you that due process and the safety of our students and staff are my highest priority,” he added.

Teacher calls for the assassination of Trump, supporters

The latest chapter of leftists and Democrats advocating for violence, even murder, has arrived.

There long have been statements by that community that call for the removal or elimination of President Donald Trump, verbiage that one report called “assassination prep.”

Now an instructor from a school in Maine has turned blunt, with JoAnna St. Germain of Waterville Senior High calling on the Secret Service to kill Trump and his supporters.

On Facebook, she insisted the federal agency “step up” and avoid a civil war by killing Trump and his supporters.

She claimed it would not constitute assassination, since she turned conspiracy theorist with the claim Trump is not a legitimate president “duly elected by the American people.”

She said, “If I had the skill set required, I would take them out myself.”

No, Trump Did Not Just Bring Back Segregation to Schools

Once again, the mainstream media is distorting the facts. Following the Justice Department’s recent dismissal of a decades-old desegregation case in Louisiana, critics rushed to frame the action as a rollback of civil rights or, worse, a return to racial segregation in schools. But the facts do not support this narrative.

In 1966, the U.S. Department of Justice filed a lawsuit to desegregate schools in Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana. The resulting federal consent decree mandated the dismantling of the district’s racially segregated school system.

By 1975, the court found the district had achieved integration. However, the case remained open for decades due to administrative oversight, including the death of the presiding judge, and no formal court action was ever taken to close it.

In April 2025, as part of a broader review of dormant cases, the DOJ under the Trump administration formally moved to dismiss the order.

According to a joint filing with Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill, there had been “zero action by the court, the parties or any third-party” in nearly 50 years.

The DOJ’s official press release, titled “Justice Department Dismisses Half Century Old Louisiana Consent Decree,” stated: “No longer will the Plaquemines Parish School Board have to devote precious local resources over an integration issue that ended two generations ago,” said Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon.

For the school district, remaining under the outdated court order meant compiling and submitting annual data to the DOJ on hiring practices, student discipline, and demographics. It imposed a bureaucratic burden on a small district with fewer than 4,000 students.

Local officials described the process as time-consuming and unnecessary, diverting limited staff and resources from more pressing educational needs.

For the DOJ, maintaining the inactive case consumed time and attention that could be better directed toward active civil rights enforcement.

Despite these facts, critics quickly claimed the dismissal would lead to “resegregation.”

Dem Rep. Eric Swalwell Vows Use of ‘Subpoena Power’ to Investigate Whether Elon Musk’s Starlink Rigged Election For Trump

Democratic Rep. Eric Swalwell has stoked a conspiracy theory Elon Musk used his Starlink satellite network to rig the 2024 presidential election for Trump.

During an appearance with a left-wing podcaster, Swalwell was asked about the integrity of the previous election and the role that Starlink may have played.

The host remarked:

The enemies allegedly stole U.S. data. The leak came through Elon Musk’s Starlink. I mean, I’m sure you’ve heard people, based on all of this information that’s happened since then, wonder if 2024 was secure. But more importantly, Representative, about 2026 and 2028, can you talk about that a little bit? Do you have concerns?

Swalwell, who is best known for being honey-trapped by a Chinese spy named Fang Fang, responded:

Elon Musk has done nothing in the last five months to make me think that we shouldn’t ask questions about what the hell he was doing in 2024.

Maybe we gave him too much of the benefit of the doubt, you know, after the election, but the way that he’s conducted himself with DOGE, and the way that, you know, he’s exposed us to so many hackers outside.

The way that he’s taken data, you know, from Americans, from our records — whether it’s Social Security or health care records, the only way that we can understand, you know, what the hell Elon Musk has been doing is to be in the majority.

Swalwell added that being in the majority would give Democrats “subpoena power,” which he would use to investigate the spurious allegations.

How Shri Thanedar’s Impeachment Charge Against Trump Sparked an ‘Internal Furor’ Among Dems

Who is running the ship? Who has the conn? Because this latest impeachment push against President Donald Trump is already coming off the hinges. It might have already crashed into a wall—it’s hard to gauge something that has no chance at political life on the Hill. Rep. Shri Thanedar (D-MI) filed several articles of impeachment against the president, which only made headlines because no one knew who this guy was. 

As some noted, he sounded like some Sith Lord from Star Wars. When a no-name congressman decided to take up the mantle of impeachment, you know something was off, and there was because Democrats were fleeing this stunt quickly. For starters, Shri reportedly told some co-sponsors that this was a sanctioned move by leadership. It very much was not. Axios added the push sparked an “internal furor” among Democrats (via The Hill): 

A trio of House Democrats asked to be removed as co-sponsors of a resolution to impeach President Trump, a sign that many in the party do not want to go down the path of trying to remove the president from office — at least at the current moment. 

Reps. Kweisi Mfume (Md.), Robin Kelly (Ill.) and Jerry Nadler (N.Y.) had signed on as co-sponsors of Rep. Shri Thanedar’s (D-Mich.) impeachment resolution — which includes seven articles of impeachment — but Tuesday afternoon, they went to the House floor and asked for their names to be taken off the legislation. The House clerk granted their request. 

Spokespeople for Kelly and Mfume said the lawmakers initially signed on to the effort because they assumed it had been reviewed by leadership. When they learned it was not, they asked for their names to be removed. 

“Congressman Mfume removed himself as a cosponsor from H. Res. 353 because he was made aware it was not cleared by Democratic leadership and not fully vetted legally — and he preferred to err on the side of caution,” the spokesperson for Mfume said.
