Newly Discovered Records Suggest Fake Special Counsel Jack Smith Broke the Law in Wiretapping Biden's Political Opponents, Including Bugging Trump Associates' Lawyers
Fishing expedition: Docs expose expansive FBI surveillance of Trump allies, possible illegality
Newly-disclosed records show that the FBI twice subpoenaed future Director Kash Patel's personal data while he was a private citizen in a probe that swept up hundreds of Trump allies, including then-future Chief of Staff Susie Wiles.
Newly released records in the Senate investigation into the weaponization of government raise questions about whether the FBI went on a fishing expedition targeting Trump advisors who were never charged with crimes and whether Special Counsel Jack Smith's prior testimony to Congress was truthful.
The documents were made public by Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, before a Senate Judiciary Committee subcommittee hearing into alleged abuses by the Biden-era FBI and Justice Department in their investigations into then ex-president Donald Trump before and during the 2024 presidential election during its probe code-named "Arctic Frost." Just the News previously reported that Biden's FBI paid anti-Trump 'Sedition Hunters' as informants in the Arctic Frost probes.
"If Watergate taught us anything, it is that even a single abuse of power carried out by a handful of individuals can shake the foundations of our Republic," said Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Tex., Chairman of the Judiciary Committee's Subcommittee on Federal Courts, Oversight, Agency Action, and Federal Rights.
"What we confront today, the Biden administration's Arctic Frost scheme, is not a single act," he continued in his opening remarks. "It is a modern Watergate trading a break-in at one office for a digital sweep into approximately 100,000 private communications, more than a dozen senators and 1000s of individuals lives."
Cruz said that ultimately, "just like Watergate," the judges, FBI and Justice Department officials involved should be "investigated, tried, impeached, and brought to justice."
The FBI's requests for information included demands for highly personal data of Patel's, including Patel's addresses ("mailing addresses, residential addresses, business addresses, and e-mail addresses"), a "call detail record" which lists inbound and outbound calls, text messages and voicemail messages, as well as sources of payment for the phone service, including credit card and bank account numbers. The FBI also demanded expansive internet session data including exact IP addresses, the document shows.
The FBI also sought--and was granted--non-disclosure orders (NDOs) from federal judges, shielding the existence of the subpoenas from Patel and his lawyers on the grounds that revealing them could result in his "flight from prosecution, destruction of or tampering with evidence, intimidation of potential witnesses and serious jeopardy to the investigation."
Susie Wiles, Donald Trump's then campaign manager and future chief of staff, was also targeted in the probe. The Biden-era FBI reportedly even went so far as to record a private phone call between Wiles and her lawyer in 2023 while she was actively managing the campaign of President Joe Biden's chief political rival, according to Reuters.
The FBI reportedly maintains that the recording was justified on the pretense that her defense lawyer had consented to the recording. However, Wiles' lawyer issued a statement adamantly denying he ever consented to such monitoring, raising the possibility false representations were made to a court for phone monitoring and the now infamous stage-managed raid on Mar-a-Lago.
"If I ever pulled a stunt like that, I wouldn't -- and shouldn't -- have a license to practice law," an unidentified lawyer told Axios. "I'm as shocked as Susie."
🚨 HOLY CRAP! Senator Cruz CONFIRMED that Biden’s FBI wiretapped Susie Wiles during a PRIVILEGED CALL with her lawyer without the consent of EITHER party.
To make it HORRENDOUSLY worse, they then tried to HIDE evidence of their actions by marking the file “prohibited.”
Sen. Grassley also raised questions about Special Counsel Smith's prior testimony and claims about his investigation, indicating the possibility that he misled Congress. It has not been determined if Patel, Grassley, or anyone else has made a referral to the Department of Justice for criminal action.

@HansMahncke
The subpoena released this morning by Chuck Grassley in connection with the fraudulent Arctic Frost investigation is absolutely staggering. It didn't just ask for Kash Patel's phone records, it asked for everything he did from 2020 to 2023.
Just to name a few, they requested all usernames and screen names, every address and email, complete billing and payment details including credit card and bank account numbers, every device ID, and a full log of every call, text, and voicemail showing who was contacted, when, and for how long. They also obtained all internet session data, including the exact IP addresses.
So this wasn't just about who Kash called. It was basically a complete view of his entire life, mapping his daily routines, travel, relationships, finances, and even tracking the specific hardware he used. In short, they got a full digital shadow of his life.
To have come through all of this without so much as a scratch tells you just how clean he is.

NEW: The FBI has found 1.9 million pages of missing records in a secret "hidden room" at headquarters that was maintained by former directors James Comey and Chris Wray, according to a Judicial Watch FOIA. The Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF) contains several safes holding the docs, including ones generated from Special Counsel Mueller's investigation.
That chart is from Yahoo! Finance, for a major company many have never heard of. That company is called Supermicro, and it builds, among other things, servers for datacenters. It is a big player in server hardware. Unlike some of its competitors, however, it is not a household name. Supermicro is an American company based in San Jose, founded by Taiwanese entrepreneurs. Like most outfits in the datacenter hardware business, it has been going gangbusters in the current AI mania. Given the market environment, why that staggering price decline with surging trading volume on the 20th?
The decline has to do with the indictment and arrest of some of its executives due to allegations of smuggling and violating US export control laws regarding Red China. As you may recall, the US has - since the Biden administration - proscribed the export of certain high-end computer chips useful for AI processing to that country. Trump made that a bit more aggressive once he took office. In the presence of any ban, a black market inevitably forms and it appears that, per the indictment, certain SMCI executives allegedly operated in that black market. Supermicro is not named directly, nor is the Asian company that allegedly helped run the operation. But the people involved are Supermicro people, a "U.S. Manufacturer" is referenced, and the stock tanked as a result.
The scheme does not appear to have been particularly sophisticated. From the indictment:
Beginning in or about 2024, certain executives, employees, and third-party affiliates of a U.S.-based manufacturer that designs and builds high-performance computer servers for artificial intelligence and cloud computing applications (the "U.S. Manufacturer"), including YIH-SHYAN "Wally" LIAW, RUEI-TSANG "Steven" CHANG, and TING-WEI "Willy" SUN, the defendants, conspired to divert billions of dollars' worth of the U.S. Manufacturer's servers to China, many of which were assembled in the United States. The U.S. Manufacturer's flagship products - servers integrating graphics processing units ("GPUs") manufactured by Nvidia Corporation ("Nvidia") - are subject to strict U.S. export controls barring their sale to China without a license.
The defendants and their co-conspirators used a particular company ("Company-1") based in Southeast Asia as a pass-through entity to give the U.S. Manufacturer's transactions that they arranged the appearance of legitimate commercial activity and to obscure their China-based end customers. YIH-SHYAN "Wally" LIAW, RUEI-TSANG "Steven" CHANG, and TING-WEI "Willy" SUN, the defendants, worked with and directed executives of Company-1 to submit purchase orders to the U.S. Manufacturer to reserve and purchase large allocations of the servers from the U.S. Manufacturer containing Nvidia GPUs and coordinate their onward transshipment to China. To ensure that the allocations were approved internally at the U.S. Manufacturer, the defendants and executives at Company-1 prepared false documents and records, and transmitted false communications, purporting to show that Company-1 was the end user of the servers. Once Company-1 received the servers, at the direction of and in coordination with the defendants and others, including third-party brokers who worked closely with the defendants to order the U.S. Manufacturer's servers for customers in China, it shipped them to those customers in China. In furtherance of the scheme, Company-1, in consultation with the defendants, used a shipping and logistics company to repackage the U.S. Manufacturer's servers and place them in unmarked boxes to conceal their content prior to shipping them to their final destinations in China
For example, to deceive the U.S. Manufacturer's compliance team, which was responsible for conducting audits of Company-1's purchases of servers to ensure adherence to U.S. export control laws, the defendants staged "dummy" servers - non-working, physical replicas of the U.S. Manufacturer's servers - for inspection at the locations where Company-1 was purportedly storing the servers it had purchased from the U.S. Manufacturer. However, the actual servers from the U.S. Manufacturer had already been unlawfully shipped to China.
So that's pretty straightforward. Use "Company-1" as a cut-out, ship them the kit, have them rebox it and sell it on to the actual end purchaser and put on a little show to pretend that they actually have the equipment on hand in case anyone comes to look. Simple, but apparently effective for a while. For long enough to do the old switcharoo with around $2.5 billion in server hardware.
In the wake of his arrest and the subsequent dramatic drop in SMCI's stock price, Liaw resigned from Supermicro's board. The company also appointed a new Chief Compliance Officer. And that brings up the other point that is driving some of this price move, namely that Supermicro has had trouble in the past when it comes to internal controls and processes. Back in 2024, Ernst & Young resigned as Supermicro's auditor, touching off - this is becoming a trend - a major stock price fall. When it resigned, Ernst & Young said that it was "unwilling to be associated with the financial statements prepared by the management," along with asserting that the board was the plaything of the company's founder and some other executives and that the company lacked effective internal controls. Before that, in 2020, the company paid a small fine to the SEC over accounting practices.
Supermicro has had some ... problems. Now, it is possible that its executives Liaw and Chang will do some time but that is not the only consideration. If the indictment is accurate, SMCI moved $2.5 billion in product to Red China. In all of 2025 (fiscal year ending in June of that year), the company had around $22 billion in net sales. The timing doesn't line up exactly, but it's close enough. Somewhere from 5%-10% of the company's sales came from this alleged scheme to violate US export controls and send high-tech equipment to a sanctioned country. That is a lot of revenue, and too much to be missed. A single outfit sending you a big chunk of your total revenue could not have been a secret. Customers that big are well known. Vendors buy customers like that dinner at least, and often have teams dedicated to them. This fake company wouldn't have had a normal relationship with Supermicro, and people inside Supermicro would have known that. If these allegations are true, it is so unlikely that it borders on impossible that the scheme was not widely known among senior executives and probably within at least the sales and logistics groups.
There is a reason that SMCI saw its price fall so dramatically: investors know it, too, and a lot of them got out. All of this, however, invites a question: assuming that the allegations are true, what is an appropriate punishment for a corporation in this case? How does one punish a corporation with controls so bad that it might be intentional, that has played fast and loose with its accounting, and that raked in billions selling proscribed products to a country that is, depending on one's perspective, a rival or an enemy? Jailing its executives would be a welcome change, but is it enough? An organization as corrupt as Supermicro is alleged to be will simply continue as it was. What punishment actually fits the crime, and what punishment can encourage better behavior in the future? Ruinous fines, like "50% of revenues for the past five years, payable over the next ten years?" Nationalization followed by divestiture to new owners after firing everyone with executive authority?
Assuming that the allegations are accurate, what is an appropriate punishment for a firm that has a long track record of misbehavior and helped violate - and profited handsomely for violating - major US sanctions?
Not a particularly good example of Collier's work (his execution of the female form is often superb), but there are a few interesting things going on, and the idea is amusing...
Anyway, today it's all about priorities. Over the years I've come to the sobering realization that the chant of "Death to America" was not invented in Tehran, but the Mullhas stole it from the Democrats!
There are only so many ways Democrats can spell out, in the most explicit possible terms, what they plan to do if and when they retake control of the federal government. They’ve spent the last year celebrating the murder of conservatives, raising hell over the most basic voter-ID laws imaginable, and most recently, sabotaging the nation’s airports in order to prevent ICE from doing its job — a plan that may very well work, given that Republicans seem interested in caving at the moment, once again. In short, Democrats are preparing a government that would treat Americans as foreigners in their own country. But just in case their plan somehow wasn’t obvious, here’s Senator Chris Murphy, the Democrat from Connecticut, to spell it out.
It’s the “undocumented Americans” that Democrats “care about most,” according to Chris Murphy. Yes, “undocumented Americans.” Simply by virtue of entering this country — illegally, in almost every case — these people become Americans, according to one of the leaders of the Democrat Party. And more than that — they become the most important Americans of all. Democrats will prioritize their interests over the interests of you and your family. And they won’t even pretend otherwise.
That interview aired in the final months of Joe Biden’s presidency. It’s only recently surfaced on social media, and for good reason. Democrats are now clearly preparing to wage an all-out war on Americans if they retake Congress and the White House. They’re planning a campaign of retribution against conservatives that will make the Biden years look tame by comparison.
This isn’t a guess. They’re saying it openly, in a variety of different contexts. In some cases, they’re rewriting history to justify the purge that they’re planning. Now, it probably won’t come as a surprise to anyone to hear that I believe it’s very important to study history — not the propaganda you’re taught in public schools, but actual history. We talk about various historical topics on the show all the time. . . So here’s a very transparent example of what this means, in practice. Late last week, The New Republic — which is one of those outlets on the Left that claims to be highly intellectual, like the Atlantic — outlined an elaborate plan to harass and imprison Donald Trump and his advisers, once Trump leaves office. This is the Left’s new-and-improved game plan for a new wave of lawfare against Donald Trump. Instead of talking about ways to improve the lives of American citizens, they’re still fixated on retribution. . .
. . . What we’re witnessing here is the launch of what Democrats are calling “Project 2029,” after the infamous Project 2025 that became an instant obsession on the Left. . . after losing the presidency in large part because of their lawfare — they’re not simply doubling down. They’re openly admitting that, in their next campaign of retribution, they aren’t even going to use a pretext. They’re just going to throw people in prison — or worse.
House Republican leaders pushed a vote on extending FISA warrantless surveillance to April after many Republicans spoke up against it.
Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) expires on April 20. It allows the government to spy on a foreign national suspected of having ties to terrorism.
The government can spy on a foreign national even if an American citizen is on the other end of the communications without a warrant (emphasis mine):
Although the law requires the government to direct this surveillance at people outside the United States, in practice, it routinely ensnares Americans.
If Obamacare Passed via Reconciliation, Why Can’t the SAVE America Act? . . .
There's always a double standard at the heart of Washington, and Republicans never seem to benefit from it, just Democrats. I can’t seem to understand why. DHS has now been shut down for over a month, and a deal is supposedly taking shape. Senate Democrats, after weeks of obstruction, reportedly appear willing to accept funding for most of the department, so long as ICE's migrant removal operations get carved out. Republicans are eyeing a two-step strategy: fund most of DHS through a bipartisan deal, then use a separate reconciliation bill to backfill ICE enforcement funding and advance key provisions of the SAVE America Act — voter ID and proof-of-citizenship requirements to register to vote.
Gov. JB Pritzker’s office offered “thoughts” — no prayers — for the Gorman family, friends, and the “Loyola University community grieving the senseless murder of Sheridan Gorman.”
. . . The “heinous tragedies” are piling up thanks to the rotund leftist governor’s political resistance to federal immigration law enforcement.
Have a great day!

FRSO proclaims that “we are organizing the united front against monopoly capitalism — with the strategic alliance of the multinational working class and oppressed nationality movements at its core.

Graduation podiums have become political soapboxes — and New York University has a terrible solution.

As March 20—National Alien Abduction Day—rolls around again, a fresh wave of data is stirring up conversation, curiosity… and maybe a little unease. Across the United States and Canada, thousands of reported UFO sightings are painting a strange, flickering map of where the unexplained seems to linger most.
And honestly, the numbers feel less like trivia and more like something you might glance at twice before heading outside at night.
According to Casino.ca’s reporting on newly analyzed reports sourced from the National UFO Reporting Center and social media discussions, UFO sightings continue to cluster in unexpected places. Delaware, surprisingly, has emerged as America’s top hotspot. With one reported sighting for every 928 residents, the small state has logged over 1,000 encounters since 1974—many involving glowing cylinders and hovering lights that don’t quite behave like anything… familiar.
Up north, Canada tells a slightly different story, and it’s arguably more intense. Alberta now claims the title of the country’s UFO capital, with one sighting for every 568 residents. Wide open skies, fewer city lights—perfect conditions, depending on how you look at it.
Interesting stuff! Any of you willing to admit you've seen a UFO?

Democrats Can't Decide Yet Whether Vicious Murderer of Sheridan Gorman Should be Deported or Welcomed to Stay in Our Country Forever

New info in the case against Jose Medina-Medina reveals that he was reportedly hiding in the park and shot Sheridan Gorman in the back of the neck as she began RUNNING AWAY.
Medina was then identified by CBP using facial recognition software, a technology that Democrat Illinois State Rep. Kelly Cassidy wants to ban.
Because of course.
The decision to grant permanent refuge to illegal alien foreign murderers and rapists is a political one. It is a political choice. It is so insane that it seems less like a political choice than a psychotic break, but it is a political choice.
And when parties and politicians make political choices, we are allowed to discuss them. We are allowed to point out when those political choices have bad or even deadly consequences.
Via Beege Wellborn, J.B. Pritzker is proud to host the Venezuelan murderer and keep him in Illinois and he wants you to stop "politicizing" his elevation of a murderer's comfort over US citizens' safety.
J.B. Pritzker's office just broke their silence on the murder of 18-year-old Sheridan Gorman in Chicago by a previously arrested illegal alien in which they condemn the Trump admin for "politicizing heinous tragedies."
See the article for a special bonus: His arraignment had to be delayed so that he could be treated for tuberculosis.
American citizens have to be vaccinated against everything, but illegal alien murderers? They can saunter through our cities spreading disease and shooting people without the government saying boo.
Run ads about this for the next six months. They are making the political choice to murder and rape us and I think the public should be made aware of that.
Here you are in the same place Sheridan was murdered by an illegal alien you're saying ICE "it wouldn't be good for anyone"

What a difference a real DOJ makes! On Monday, the Maine District U.S. Attorney's Office released the most delightful news brief:
A Thomaston resident pleaded guilty today in U.S. District Court in Portland to assaulting a U.S. Border Patrol agent engaged in his official duties.
According to court records, in August 2025, a United States Border Patrol agent responded to a one-vehicle crash in Washington, Maine. As law enforcement conducted a roadside investigation, Olivia Wilkins, 24, came upon the scene in an automobile and parked close to officers. Wilkins voiced concerns regarding Border Patrol's presence in the area, but was permitted to move the vehicle further back from the crash to continue observing law enforcement. As the Border Patrol agent took an individual on scene into custody and began moving the individual to a nearby Border Patrol vehicle, Wilkins quickly accelerated toward the agent, who pulled the individual off the roadside away from the oncoming vehicle. Wilkins stopped the vehicle without striking either the agent or the individual in custody before swerving back into the lane of travel and fleeing the scene. Maine State Police troopers were able to arrest Wilkins a short distance away.
The statement also notes that the FBI investigated the case. Hallelujah! What a giant upgrade from the days when they investigated Catholics and schoolkids' parents! It's also an ice touch -- er, I mean a nice touch that the two illegal aliens who crashed the truck were taken into custody and off the road.

The expenses were marked as "leadership training and consulting."
It's unclear what the sessions consisted of or who participated. Ocasio-Cortez's campaign did not respond to requests for comment.
Boyle, a Harvard-trained doctor, calls himself an "interventional psychiatrist" and specializes in unorthodox methods for treatment-resistant depression, PTSD and anxiety.
He's considered a "leading authority" on ketamine, the controversial horse tranquilizer given to "Friends" star Matthew Perry in the month leading up to his tragic death.
"I just saw the incredible power of what these treatments could do," Boyle said during a podcast appearance last year about getting into the mind-blowing biz. "It's a ton of fun helping patients get better."
Boyle's clinic also offers other treatments popular with the 1 Percent, like stellate ganglion block, an anesthetic injected into a nerve cluster in the neck to calm the body's fight-or-flight response. Billionaires like Bob Parsons, who's battled PTSD since returning from the Vietnam War, have raved about the treatment.
"Celebrities tend to be more inclined to be on the hunt for highly effective solutions across beauty, health, mental health, nutrition and so on," Boyle said in an interview last year about the treatment.
AOC herself is no stranger to touting the benefits of hallucinogenic drugs for therapy.
The "Squad" rep, who campaigned to end the federal prohibition of marijuana in 2018, has three times proposed legislation to make it easier to study magic mushrooms and other psychedelics.
As a freshman congresswoman in 2019, she introduced an amendment to allow the feds to spend taxpayer money on studying the medical potential of psilocybin, ecstasy and other drugs to treat mental illnesses, calling the early research "promising."
"It's well past time we take drug use out of criminal consideration and into medical consideration," she tweeted at the time.

Revealed: Joe Kent Kicked Off the Entire Candace Owens Project to Attack Erika Kirk and Claim the Jews Killed Charlie Kirk
—Disinformation Expert Ace
Lunatics. Vicious psychopathic lunatics.
So here's the story as alleged:
A TPUSA employee named Andrew Kolvet says he wanted to leave no stone unturned in the search for Charlie Kirk's killer. This was in the early hours after the murder, before police discovered the rifle with Tyler Robinson's fingerprints on it, and his texts telling his gay furry lover he was going to do something wonderful.
Kolvet knew Joe Kent. He passed to Kent some private DMs of Charlie Kirk -- if I have this right -- complaining that one Jewish donor had stopped funding TPUSA because he didn't like the organization platforming confirmed antisemitic monsters Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson. Kovet's idea -- stupid from the start -- was apparently that maybe this Jewish donor might have killed Charlie Kirk.
Kolvet claims he never believed this, but that he wanted to make sure every possible avenue of investigation was open. It's silly, but I'm sure he wasn't thinking quite straight in the hours after his friend was murdered.
He trusted that Joe Kent would act like a responsible government official in handling the texts in a responsible, official way.
Instead, antisemtic Nazi conspiracy theorist Joe Kent began demanding that Kolvet make the chats public. Kent wasn't investigating the texts; he was trying to create a podcaster "investigation" and public witch-hunt.
Even after the assassin's identity was known to everyone who isn't a Jew-hating psychotic.
Kolvett refused to make the chats public, because he says he didn't want innocent parties baselessly accused.
Especially given that the killer was now known and was not a disappointed Jewish donor but a radical left-wing gay furry sodomite.
And then just a week or two later, Candace Owens starts talking about the chats and Tucker Carlson can't stop talking about them, either. Later, Owens actually publishes them.
Kovett's conclusion is -- and it seems hard to doubt -- that Joe Kent was a determined conspiracy theorist who could not let go of the idea that Jews Killed Charlie Kirk, even after the proof emerged that the killer was a non-Jewish furry-fucker. And after Kolvett repeatedly refused to make the chats public, Kent gave them to Candace Owens (and probably Tucker Carlson too, although Owens could have given them to Carlson).
Note that Joe Kent was a government official and ostensibly a high-ranking counter-terrorism official, but decided to leak private DMs he had been given in his capacity as government official to an extremely unreliable and toxic internet personality.
That might be a crime. I don't know. The texts weren't classified but they were sensitive personal information given to a public official for purposes of an official government investigation -- not to leak to a hair-on-fire lunatic podcaster.
It is definitely a fireable offense, whether or not a criminal one.
And I wonder if it might be the subject of a lawsuit by TPUSA and Erika Kirk, who have been absolutely brutalized due to Joe Kent's leaking to the maniacal conspiracy theorist and defamer Candace Owens.
And now Joe Kent announces that he will testify on behalf of Charlie Kirk's actual murderer Tyler Robinson and tell the jury that no, the Jews did it, let this innocent patsy-of-the-Jews free.
Here are the facts: Yes, I shared the screen grab with Joe Kent because I was told I could trust him and I wanted EVERY possible lead pursued. We've done this quietly behind the scenes with countless items.
Shortly after Robinson’s arrest, the prosecutors released a probable cause affidavit detailing the evidence gathered immediately after Charlie’s assassination.
The evidence presented at that time was overwhelming.
The news about Joe Kent testifying for Tyler Robinson broke just minutes before today's show. I did not hold back in my feelings about it. pic.twitter.com/lCnzPcFKp3
And because of this psychotic Nazi, Erika Kirk and TPUSA officials have now had their lives threatened almost daily by internet lunatics convinced they murdered Charlie Kirk and then covered it up.
Gee I sure hope that no harm comes to Joe Kent, Candace Owens, or Tucker Carlson. I sure hope that no one ever suffers the consequences of their own actions.
Despite Hurting Miniature Senator Rand Paul's Fragile Feelings, Markwaye Mullin is Confirmed as Secretary of DHS Democrats Preparing Failure Theater on Their DHS Shutdown?
—Disinformation Expert Ace

But if Trump thinks he can be browbeaten into being useful, fine, I'll defer to Trump.

@BillMelugin_
BREAKING: The Senate just voted 54-45 to confirm Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) as DHS Secretary.
Applause & cheers break out.
The only Republican no vote was Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY).
The only two Democrats to vote yes were Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) & Sen. Martin Heinrich (D-NM).
The Senate on Monday night confirmed Sen. Markwayne Mullin as the next Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, handing President Trump another key cabinet win as his administration moves to tighten its grip on immigration enforcement and national security.
Mullin, an Oklahoma Republican and close Trump ally, was approved in a 54-45 vote, with a largely party-line split that still saw a few notable defections. Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky was the lone Republican to vote against the nomination, while Democrat Sens. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania and Martin Heinrich of New Mexico crossed the aisle to support it.
When Paul was questioning a vote of Mullins', which I think showed Mullins as weak on the border, Mullins said something like "I can see why Rand Paul's neighbor beat him up." Paul made this his primary case against Mullins -- not the vote, the comment about Paul being very punchable. He told Mullins to tell him that to his face, as if he were some kind of tough-guy. This is like a dweeby fourth grader saying "Say that to my face" when in the presence of three teachers and the Vice Principle.
Rand Paul is an unserious pansy bitch and I can't wait to primary xim.
The confirmation caps a swift rise for Mullin, who Trump tapped earlier this month to replace Kristi Noem. In announcing the move on Truth Social, Trump said Noem would transition to a new role as "Special Envoy for The Shield of the Americas," while praising Mullin's record in Congress, noting his decade in the House and three years in the Senate and calling his performance "tremendous."
Mullin, a former mixed martial arts fighter turned lawmaker, quickly embraced the nomination, signaling alignment with Trump's agenda at a department that has become central to the administration's immigration crackdown and broader homeland security posture.
"I am grateful to President Trump for nominating me to lead the U.S. Department of Homeland Security," Mullin wrote on X following the announcement. "I look forward to earning the support of my colleagues in the Senate and carrying out President Trump's mission alongside the department's many capable agencies and the thousands of patriots who keep us safe every day."
For over a month, Democrats have shut down the Department of Homeland Security -- inflicting pain on over 100,000 American families missing paychecks and causing widespread disruption to millions of travelers across the country.
Democrats have misrepresented negotiations in the press, been unresponsive, prolonged the suffering of hardworking Americans, boasted that they are "very serene" about this dangerous shutdown and are now openly admitting they are "making people hurt."
The Trump Administration has negotiated in good faith from day one to fully fund DHS and avoid this dangerous shutdown, but instead of working towards a solution, Democrats have responded with a list of unserious, extreme demands that would seek to reinstitute Biden's failed open-border agenda, protect criminal illegal aliens, and put American citizens -- and the law enforcement officers who defend them -- in danger.
Let's be clear: these attempts to defund our federal law enforcement agents and border security are unacceptable to the American people.
Trump's Nefarious Scheme to use ICE agents, whose salaries are fully funded, to serve as emergency TSA agents as Democrats ruthlessly attempt to shut down the country is actually working, says CNN.
I don't know if the following arrest was planned in advance or just occurred because Trump had assigned ICE agents to perform TSA duties:
BREAKING: DHS tells @FoxNews that this viral incident at SFO airport last night involved ICE arrests of a family Guatemalan illegal immigrants who have had a deportation order since 2019, and one of the females tried to flee while being escorted for processing. Happened before… https://t.co/dn0p5saJbN
I would like to offer to pay the salaries of TSA personnel during this funding impasse that is negatively affecting the lives of so many Americans at airports throughout the country
Allegedly, Democrats are ready to make a deal, though I suspect they're offering a "deal" in the same way Iran's mullahs routinely offer "deals."
Ed Morrissey, quoting Punchbowl DC:
Suddenly, Senate Democrats want to play Monty Hall on the stalled funding package for the Department of Homeland Security. Multiple outlets report that a new deal will fund DHS, except for a slice of ICE's migrant-removal operations. However, Republicans have a plan for that, and that may cost Democrats more than just a little face:
For the first time in more than a month, there's optimism that the Senate and the White House can finally find a path to reopening the Department of Homeland Security. Key Senate Republicans returned from the White House late Monday with a noticeably upbeat demeanor over the state of the talks with President Donald Trump, who had just rebuffed a GOP-backed off-ramp.
The framework under discussion would fund all of DHS except for ICE's migrant removal operations, and could eventually include some reforms that Democrats have been demanding.
Republicans would then try to fund the rest of ICE via a party-line reconciliation bill.
That strategy opens up another option, however:
GOP leaders would also try to use reconciliation to enact elements of the SAVE America Act, which mandates photo IDs and citizenship verification for federal elections. Trump has called this bill his top legislative priority.
Maybe this did it:

Diversity Is Our Strength: Woke Australian PM Goes to Mosque to Curry Favor With His Country's Rulers, Is Chased Out of the Conquerors' Temple and Sent Running for His Bodyguards
—Disinformation Expert Ace
This is from last week, but due to the unfortunate Hamster Walk-Out on Friday, I never got to it.
Australian PM, Anthony Albanese, is exactly what you would expect from a left-leaning Western leader in these fraught times.
A big fan of the mass migration, "diversity is our strength," soft totalitarianism that has been so popular within the Anglosphere and the EU, he has bent over backwards to welcome in hostile Muslim immigrants, reassure them that Australia was fertile ground for radicalization, and a critic of any and everybody who questions whether that is such a smart move.
He went to Sydney suburb to beg for the support of his colonial masters. The suburb used to be white working class, but is now majority Muslim.
He was called a "genocidal pig" and chased out of the mosque with some threat of violence.

Kermit Gosnell, the former Philadelphia abortionist convicted of first-degree murder in the brutal killings of three infants born alive during illegal late-term abortions at his notorious "house of horrors" clinic, has died in prison. He was 85.
Gosnell, who was serving three consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole plus an additional 30 years on federal drug charges, died at SCI Huntingdon, according to sources familiar with the matter.
His cause of death was not immediately released, though he had reportedly been in declining health in recent years.
The news emerged publicly via pro-life journalist Ann McElhinney, who extensively covered his 2013 trial, interviewed him in prison, and co-authored a book on the case.
In her announcement, McElhinney described Gosnell as "the abortion doctor who is thought to have murdered thousands of babies in a 30 year killing spree" and called him "a chilling monster who could sometimes come across as charming."
...
A Philadelphia grand jury, in its investigation of Gosnell's Women's Medical Society abortion center, labeled it a "house of horrors" and initially sought charges for hundreds of murders of babies born alive and then killed.
Charges were ultimately limited to seven murder counts "after pressure from senior political and law enforcement officials," according to accounts from those covering the case
If you remember, a twat pro-child-murder feminist progressive explained away the media's complete refusal to cover the grisly serial murders because, she sniffed, it was a "local crime story."

Anonymity is vital for the proper functioning of a free society, regardless of legal protections afforded by the United States Constitution and the Bill of Rights for free speech, unencumbered by government influence or interference.
But as the current social-media-obsessed culture demonstrates, anonymity from the majority is also vital. Doxxing and deplatforming and worse are now a staple of public discourse.
From: McIntyre v. Ohio Elections Commission (1995)
Under our Constitution, anonymous pamphleteering is not a pernicious, fraudulent practice, but an honorable tradition of advocacy and of dissent. Anonymity is a shield from the tyranny of the majority. See generally J. Mill, On Liberty and Considerations on Representative Government 1, 3-4 (R. McCallum ed. 1947). It thus exemplifies the purpose behind the Bill of Rights, and of the First Amendment in particular: to protect unpopular individuals from retaliation-and their ideas from suppression-at the hand of an intolerant society. The right to remain anonymous may be abused when it shields fraudulent conduct. But political speech by its nature will sometimes have unpalatable consequences, and, in general, our society accords greater weight to the value of free speech than to the dangers of its misuse.
It is relatively simple for political and social elites to speak freely; they have walls, both figurative and literal, built around them by dint of their wealth or their government connection. It is exactly those people against whom anonymity is a powerful weapon, because their reach is far more powerful than the mere citizen.
Entrance into the public sphere as a politician (or the quaint term: public servant), or commentator, or pundit, or as an entertainment figure immediately expands one's megaphone far beyond that of the citizen, and it also affords one the protection of the organized media, the state and, sadly, in many cases, the long arm of the state or media that reaches out to punish one's interlocutors.
Against this we have one tool: anonymity. And who are the enemies of anonymity? Those who have other protections!
Here is a comment from a purported 1st Amendment lawyer, who thinks that anonymous speech should be held to a different standard. He was responding to some "famous" person whose name I barely know, but whose attack on anonymity is self serving and intellectually weak. I cited one obvious need for anonymity...The United Kingdom, which is busily imprisoning people for their speech! But there are countless others here in America that are powerful defenses of anonymity as one of the pillars of our free discourse in ideas. For example; "Whistleblowers" are sometimes self-serving and craven, but there are numerous examples of their importance in exposing government malfeasance.
And our current legal and political structure was debated in The Federalist Papers by "Publius," (Hamilton, Madison, and Jay), and rebutted by "Federal Farmer," whose identity is still not certain after almost 240 years!
If anonymity was an appropriate right to be exercised by those men, then it is certainly something worth defending.
In spite of the technological advances since 1787, instant communication via the internet has changed nothing...we are all still pamphleteers!

Good morning kids. With the United States heavily engaged in military operations against the Iranian regime, and Cardboard Cutouts notwithstanding, that regime still capable of hurling missiles at Israel and other nations in the region, is this something?!
A massive explosion ripped through the Valero refinery in Port Arthur on Monday, sending a towering column of black smoke over the city and triggering an emergency response across Jefferson County.

Valero reported the refinery produces 435,000 barrels of gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel per day.
In the wake of Israel's recent strike on a key Iranian/Qatari oil facility and President Trump's threat to obliterate Iran's energy infrastructure if the regime does not capitulate or accede to his demands for a cessation of hostilities, is there a link to Iran or was this some freak accident. Given the our props borders and joke of an immigration enforcement system prior to the Trump era, sabotage not only can't be ruled out but IMHO it most likely was the cause. Perhaps this brainwave might be pushing things but our own homegrown traitors in the form of Antifa and the red-green-climate change maniacs could have used the war as cover to pull off an attack or are in league with Iranian/Islamic terror cells?

Figuring that if he were somehow able to appear wealthy, and stand by the road, the Pope would see him, be impressed, stop, and he would get to shake the Pope‘s hand.
So this poor old fella went out and bought a nice new expensive suit that he couldn’t really afford, a sharp fedora and wingtips, and on the appointed day, got up early, put on his new clothes, hit the barber shop and got a neat comb-over haircut, then made his way to the edge of the street where the Pope would soon be passing by in the vaunted Popemobile.
After what seemed like an eternity, our newly-outfitted guy finally spots the approaching motorcade, and he begins to get all tingly with anticipation. As the Popemobile gets closer and closer, it suddenly stops right in front of him. The Pope climbs down, out of his vehicle, walks toward him, but without even looking at him, walks past toward a scruffy little dude nearby, sitting obliviously and leaning against a wall. The little guy is wearing nasty, dirty clothes and is obviously stinking drunk. The Pope, arms folded, stands silently over the drunk, who finally looks up. The Pope unfolds his arms, slowly leans down and whispers something to the drunk that nobody can hear. Then smiling stupidly, this drunk gets up and hobbles down the street as the Pope makes his way back to his Popemobile, to the roar of the nearby crowd.
Our friend is momentarily confused, but then it dawns on him: Of course! The Pope doesn’t want to meet rich people; he wants to meet downtrodden, poor people! So he goes to “Plan-B” and runs after the drunk guy. When he catches up to him, he offers to swap clothes (and shoes!) with him. Of course, the man immediately agrees. So they go behind a couple of bushes and proceed with their transaction. While he’s momentarily overcome by the stench of his new clothes, he tells himself that sacrifices must be made to get a blessing of the Holy Father, and off he runs after the slowly moving Papal motorcade.
He runs and runs, and finally catches up to the motorcade. He goes a little ways ahead, then stops and sits down just like the drunk guy did, to wait for the Popemobile to pass by. Sure enough, as it gets to him, it stops! He’s beyond excited as the Pope climbs down and walks straight over towards him. Just as before, with arms crossed and with a stern, pious expression, the Pope stands over him. After a few seconds, the Pope leans down in his face and quietly says,

Seven dogs stolen from their owners have gone viral after escaping from an illegal transport truck and making their way home.
They traveled around 17 km together, led by a corgi across highways and fields, now safely back with their respective owners..🐶🐾🥺❤️ pic.twitter.com/H5VB9BQkGB
A group of seven dogs bravely returned home to their owners in a near-ten-mile trek after being stolen, Dextero reports.
A viral video shows the pack, which includes Golden Retrievers, German Shepherds and Corgis, walking along the Changchun Highway in the province of Changchun, Jilin in China. According to South China Morning Post, the video has been viewed more than 230 million times, and shows the dogs fleeing along the busy road. The pets were allegedly stolen by thieves working at a dog meat shop.
On March 16, a witness, named Lu, recorded the pack and tried to lead them to safety, but was ignored. The dogs, including one who had an injured leg, were shown following a Corgi, who occasionally looked back to ensure that no one went astray.
"They resemble a band of little brothers in distress, moving in unison -- nothing like stray dogs," Lu told Dahe Daily.
Sounds cute, but in addition to AI slop, one kind of fake story I see on Twitter is where they take real video but just completely invent a fake but poignant narrative to go along with it. Like a video will say "He saved this baby turtle, and later, it saved his life," and then they just assemble bits and pieces of different videos about different turtles culminating with the turtle calling 911. And they don't show the turtle dialing 911. They just tell you this happened.
Do I believe this viral story from a foreign outlet I've never heard of? Let's just say that around the holidays I allow myself to entertain the possibility of Santa.
Single Whoopi Goldberg reveals she goes bar-hopping to fulfill her sexual needs
Whoopi Goldberg cheerfully confessed she bar hops as a way to fulfill her sexual needs.
On Wednesday's episode of "The View," Goldberg noted, "A woman wrote an article in Cosmopolitan, admitting that she fantasizes about being single even though she's in a very happy longterm relationship."
"She writes that sometimes, she finds herself missing the days of casual flings and bar-hopping," Goldberg continued as the audience giggled.
The "Ghost" actress then turned to her co-hosts for a reaction, to which Joy Behar responded, "Do you miss those days?"
Goldberg quipped, "I am single," adding, "Yeah, I bar hop, I go hang! And I do hit and runs when I need it."
I envision her working off her crusty undies with e Dremel tool and a chain-cutter.
Why post something from last month? Gen Z has been annoying me too.
The generation born between 1997 and 2010 is the very first generation who did worse in school than the generation before them, according to a top neuroscientist.
And shockingly, they are proud of it.
"They're the first generation in modern history to score lower on standardized academic tests than the one before it," Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath, 43, told The Post. "And to make matters worse, most of these young people are overconfident about how smart they are. The smarter people think they are, the dumber they actually are.
No way!
"They underperformed on basically every cognitive measure, from basic attention, memory, literacy, numeracy, executive function and general IQ."
Horvath recently testified to the sad facts before Congress, telling a panel of lawmakers that Generation Zers, who followed the Millenial generation, blew up humanity's proud academic record -- the wrong way.
So what happened that caused an entire age group to bomb test scores?
What caused them to become a generation of retards?
Well, the left's covid school shutdowns was part of it.
The other part of it is what's making us all stupid: Constant low-cognitive-demand/high-domamine-spiking scrolling on phones.
Horvath, who studied reams of data from standardized academic tests, told Congress that Z's struggles stem from the fact that they're the first generation to grow up with constant screen time. And it's no substitute for real learning.
"More than half of the time a teenager is awake, half of it is spent staring at a screen," said Horvath, who's taught at universities around the world, including Harvard and the University of Melbourne in Australia. "Humans are biologically programmed to learn from other humans and from deep study, not flipping through screens for bullet point summaries."
...
And it's not just happening in the US.
"Across 80 countries, if you look at the data, once countries adopt digital technology widely in schools, performance goes down significantly," said Horvath, who is also founder of LME Global, a Arizona-based group that bridges research and classroom practices to improve academic outcomes.

State records show 89 hospice companies at one Los Angeles office plaza. We went to look for ourselves.
The Merabi Professional Medical Plaza, a three-story, 32,000 square foot stucco and glass office building in Los Angeles, is home to a salon, a law office, a modeling agency, a realty corporation and, also, 89 licensed hospice companies.
Patient advocate Sheila Clark, who has worked to expose allegations of widespread Medicare fraud in the hospice industry, calls this building "ground zero" for the issue.
"This particular building I noticed, I'm like, 'dang, how can there be that many licensed and certified hospices in this tiny little building?,'" Clark said.
The building is among the most extreme cases of what's known as "clustering" to turn up in a sweeping CBS News investigation -- a grouping of large numbers of hospice offices that state auditors consider a major red flag for potential fraud.
The Van Nuys address for Merabi Plaza appears dozens of times in state records for licensed hospice companies. Inside the building's entry hall, a directory lists numerous hospice agencies that line the long tiled hallways, although the building's owner claims many are no longer there.
Clark said it makes "no sense" to find so many licensed and certified hospice company offices operating inside a single building. Auditors said the clustering of so many firms raised concerns because it suggests that "the number of agencies in these areas likely exceeds the number of patients who need services."
Concerns about clustering appear in a 2022 California State Auditor's report, which found that Los Angeles County had experienced a 1,500% increase in hospice companies countywide since 2010. That's six times more hospice providers than the national average, relative to the county's elderly population.
Auditors said other warning signs for potential fraud included multiple hospices in one building, geographic clustering, low patient counts, high rates of terminally ill patients later discharged alive, excessive billing and staff shared across multiple companies.
CBS News found that 72 of the 89 registered hospices in Merabi Plaza have at least three of those six potential warning signs.
15 hospices incorporated in a single day, in a single suite in Van Nuys
'It's not normal. None of this is normal,' said the CEO of a hospice trade association who has warned of fraud risks in LA for years
A group operating out of a Friar Street office building in Van Nuys that advertises "virtual offices" incorporated 22 hospices and home care agencies in one year, including 15 hospices registered in one day to a single suite, according to an investigation by the Southern California News Group.
The 15 hospices, all formed in "Suite 205" at 14545 Friar St., later collected $12.3 million from Medicare and Medi-Cal billings in 2023 and 2024, records showed.
Each had the equivalent of one full-time employee at the time.
While operating out of the same building is permitted, hospices cannot use the same office, according to Sheila Clark, the president and CEO of California Hospice and Palliative Care Association.
"You cannot co-locate with another provider," she said.
However, these hospices seemingly bypassed that limitation by appending letters from "A" to "P" onto the suite number in official documentation. Suites in the building, however, have only one to three rooms and leases specifically prohibit subdivision of those spaces, according to the property owner, Kambiz Merabi.
Yet Merabi's website advertises "virtual offices" that give you a "physical business address and office number for your business cards, website, email and registering a new company." Mentions of that service were scrubbed from his Instagram page as of Friday, but remained on other accounts.
One post specifically advertised to industries needing an address to "obtain licenses."
"For just $99 per month, you receive 2 hours of private office or conference room usage each month; a professional office address with an actual suite number -- not a P.O. Box; mail and package reception; your business listed on our digital directory and within the building's directory," the post read. "For industries needing a California or Los Angeles presence to obtain licenses, a suite at the prestigious Merabi Professional Medical Plaza Building provides more than just an address -- it offers a full-service business center hub with many perks and services for businesses like yours."

Here's a little good news: A foreign pirate who was imprudently granted citizenship, and then defrauded the people of the US for millions, has been denaturalized.
Let him be the first of millions.
Oh, I had not heard about this at all. It happened a couple of days ago, and what a development.
This began as a COVID-era fraud case, but what it ended up as should strike fear in the heart of every Somali Learing Center hustler and every Armenian hospice provider.
That naturalized citizenship is not the shield of steel one might have thought it was, or that it used to be back when no one paid attention to such things.
For the year between April 2020 and the next May, 25-year-old Joff Stenn Wroy Philossaint of Fort Lauderdale, FL, had himself a schweet little scheme going with COVID loan applications and all the various businesses he had registered in his name.
He and his partners in crime came into some serious cha-ching, courtesy of those very forgiving loan programs.
This is where it gets really interesting. Thanks to a quirk in immigration law, if you are in the middle of criminal activity when you apply for your citizenship, you can also be charged with submitting a fraudulent application.
ANYONE COME IMMEDIATELY TO MIND?
Haitian-born Philossaint was definitely up to no good in 2020 when he dropped his citizenship application papers, and, when the feds collared him in 2022 for the loans conspiracy charges, guess what else they hung on him?
Philossaint pled out on the conspiracy charges, and a federal jury nailed him on the fraudulent citizenship application.
...
That would have been the end of the story in most administrations, but not in this one. In February of this year, the Justice Department petitioned the court for an order revoking Philossaint's citizenship, and it was formally stripped yesterday.
Tomorrow is March 25th, "Tolkien Reading Day," because March 25th is the day when the Ring is destroyed in the book. I think I'm going to start the Hobbit tomorrow and read all four books this time. The only bad part of the trilogy are the Frodo/Sam chapters in The Two Towers. They're repetitive, slow, and mostly about the weather and terrain. But most everything else is good. Weirdly, the Frodo-Sam chapters in Return of the King are exciting and action-packed and among the best in the trilogy. (Though the chapters with everyone else in Return of the King get pretty slow again. Mostly people talking about marching towards war, and then marching towards war.)

[A]n asshole is somebody who looks at a painting of two toddlers doing something totally normal for toddlers and decides that it represents homosexuality and then thinks that publicly saying that is somehow edgy and clever. Instead it is doing what we accuse the Left of, that is sexualizing young children. If that describes you, own it.
Reports: The A-10 Thunderbolt, better known as The Warthog, has been unleashed on Iran It's a heavily armored (the pilot sits in a titanim bathtub) slow-and-low loitering plane with a massive minigun firing depleted uranium rounds. The capability it brings is the ability to just fly big circles over the country waiting for a target to present itself. This is a weapons platform for eliminating vehicles and personnel. Its first task might be strafing the seas, clearing out any remaining attack boats and minelayers.

Some people liked Candace Owens because she was a black woman who told hard truths about BLM and black criminality. But this was always a grift. She started out as a race hustler for a grift, then hustled race the other way to grift conservatives, and now she's back to being a race-hustler for the left again. Specifically, she is now claiming that people pointing out that she is legitimately low-IQ and can't pronounce half the words her AI-generated teleprompter script points out to her is racist and just Ben Shapiro's way of saying the n-word without quite saying it. You see, you can only say that black people are smart, and if you see a dumb one that doesn't know how to pronounce simple words while she poses as an investigatory journalist, you have to pretend she's actually smart or you're a racist. Weird, that doesn't sound very conservative, let alone "#Based," to me. To prove how much she hates racism, she then says that Ben Shapiro's Jew ancestors were masters of the slave trade.
