Treasury Department announced sanctions against the Sinaloa Cartel, hitting its financial network hard by targeting key individuals and entities involved in money laundering. • The U. S.

Democrats Activate NGO Machine For Weekend Color Revolution Operation Against Trump

The Democratic Party is facing low favorability among Americans and has initiated a domestic color revolution with the support of billionaire-funded NGOs. This operation, currently focused on President Trump, involves protests labeled "Hands Off! " taking place across the nation. A website for this movement indicates backing from 186 various leftist organizations and unions. Historically, color revolutions have been used for regime change overseas by US intelligence agencies and have appeared domestically before, like during the BLM protests. The current effort aims to influence public sentiment against Trump, akin to past tactics. However, challenges exist due to frozen grants and the recent integration of USAID into the State Department, which may hinder their plans for a taxpayer-funded revolution. The situation is evolving, and the Democrats are poised for a contentious summer.  https://www.zerohedge.com/political/democrats-activate-ngo-machine-weekend-color-revolution-op...

No, The Senate Shouldn’t Let Even More Unaccountable Bureaucrats Decide What The Law Says

A discussion is underway regarding whether Senate Republicans should allow a shift in legislative power to the Senate parliamentarian and government bureaucrats. This stems from recent actions taken by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under President Biden, which have sparked significant debate over regulatory authority. 1. Legislative Authority: • The central question is who should decide the meaning of statutes in Congress. It is argued that Congress itself should maintain this power and not delegate it to external entities like the Senate parliamentarian. 2. California’s Waivers: • The issue arises from waivers granted to California under the Clean Air Act, which are believed to negatively impact the automotive and fossil fuel industries, affecting consumer choices and state policies. 3. Historical Context: • Previous administrations, such as Trump's, have used the Congressional Review Act (CRA) to challenge executive rules. Recently, Congress has disapproved several Bi...

Mr. Schumer — You Make No Sense!

In an article by Richard Blakley, Senator Chuck Schumer is criticized for his comments on President Trump's tariff approach to addressing the national debt crisis. The author highlights Schumer's long tenure and the dramatic increase in the national debt during his time in office. • Schumer described Trump's tariff idea as harmful and nonsensical while Blakley argues the opposite. • Schumer has been in the Senate since 1999 and led the Democrat caucus and was majority leader, yet the U. S. national debt has drastically increased from a $126 billion surplus in 1999 to $36. 68 trillion in 2025. • Blakley questions whom Schumer represents, given the large national debt burden on citizens ($107,244 per person and $323,048 per taxpayer). • The author expresses frustration that senators cannot be removed from office and suggests starting with their salaries to address the debt crisis. • The vast debt is illustrated with comparisons, like how it could make 36 million people millio...
