The NGO Complex Is Irredeemably Corrupt - David Strom
My wife works for the Minnesota State Legislature, so she sees the steady stream of nonprofit CEOs and lobbyists bringing in their shiny literature, PowerPoints, and clients to lobby legislators to dump tons on taxpayer money into their coffers.
- If you bought the lies they were selling, you would think that every third child would starve to death without the government pouring every possible dime legislators could scrape up their way.
- Imagine those commercials with Sarah McLachlan music playing, with children and puppies, and the nonprofit execs pleading for just one more dollar to save one more life.
Why We Should Be Very Angry About the Tariffs — and Why Trump Is Right Again - Kevin McCullough
Because it’s about time someone stood up for us. Shame on the ones who didn’t. And thank God for the one who finally did.On April 2nd, President Donald J. Trump did something no other modern president has had the spine to do.
He declared “Liberation Day” and slapped sweeping tariffs on the very nations that have been gutting the American economy for decades.
A 10 percent universal tariff acrossall imports. Targeted, punitive tariffs up to 34 percent on bad actors like China.
And guess what?
- We should be furious—not at Trump—but at the spineless presidents before him who let things get this bad in the first place.
- Let’s be clear: these tariffs didn’t start a trade war.
- They responded to one...

Imagine if things were reversed!-----TX High School Track Meet Turns Tragic As Football Star Is Stabbed; the Reason Why Is Truly Disturbing
What started as an innocent and fun track meet between several Texas high schools on Wednesday took a senseless and violent turn as one student stabbed another after an altercation over a seat in the stands. -Becky Noble 
Austin Metcalf, a standout football star in his own right, was attending the meet and sitting in the stands. The fight broke out after a student from another school, 17-year-old Karmelo Anthony, was told he was sitting in the wrong place in the stands. Anthony brandished a knife and stabbed Metcalf in the chest. Metcalf's twin brother, Hunter, was also there and tried to save his brother...But there is one other thing that will be glaringly absent: coverage of this story by the mainstream legacy media, and it is very easy to see why.
- It just doesn't fit the narrative.
- There will be no public outrage, no protests, no marches, no calls for justice.
- The media won't touch it...

GOP Senator Had the Perfect Response to CNN Host's Questions About Trump's Tariffs
The Republican senator explained clearly how United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) compliant cars won’t be subjected to tariffs, so there’s a wide swath of products that are available to the American consumer that won’t be subjected to tariffs. - Matt Vespa
- Customers might see price spikes in cars if the vehicles, transmission, and other electronics are manufactured in Europe.
- CNN host Kaitlan Collins asked about the Mercedes dealership in Alabama, Moreno again reminded the fake news press that Alabama makes those cars here, and exports quite a few. The vehicles that will truly get slapped with these tariffs are super-luxury cars that only the uber-wealthy can afford. Senator Moreno explained how, in some ways, the tariff structure does tax the wealthy.

Wall Street reacts to President Trump's trade tariffs plan * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh:
Trump said, "For decades, our country has been looted, pillaged, raped, and plundered by nations near and far, both friend and foe alike. With today's action, we are finally going to be able to make America great again – greater than ever before. Jobs in factories will come roaring back into our country."

World Health Organization reports adverse effects following US withdrawal | Blaze Media:
Growing increasingly desperate, Ghebreyesus pleaded again for a reversal of fortunes on Feb. 11, stating, "We regret the announcement by the United States, of its intention to withdraw, and it was also sad to see them participating less this week. I think we all felt their absence."
"We very much hope they would reconsider, and we would welcome the opportunity to engage in constructive dialogue," added Ghebreyesus.
It appears the WHO — which Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. recently called a "very nefarious organization" — has since accepted the fact that the U.S. and its money are not making a return.

Katherine Maher will die on this hill, which is both amusingly admirable and totally insane.
- National Public Radio is biased.
- Self-identified Democrats occupy all its editorial positions, and she got obliterated on Capitol Hill, where she tried to cast herself as some impartial arbiter of today’s culture.
She’s a part of the loony Left, which got brutally exposed by Republicans.
Her attempts at deflection were sabotaged by herself; Republicans whipped out her insane tweets showing her adherence to wokeism...

Innocent California Walgreens Employee Is the Latest Victim of Left's Violent Rhetoric
This tragic story out of California is two things: a) completely predictable and b) completely avoidable. - Amy Curtis
- A Walgreens employee was killed by a man emulating UnitedHealthcare CEO murderer Luigi Mangione, because that suspect was mad at big pharmacies.
As this writer said on X, this is the inevitable outcome of the Left's rhetoric on healthcare and their view of political violence.
- If it's okay -- in the Left's logic -- to shoot a health insurance company CEO in the back as he walks down a NYC street, if it's okay to dox Tesla owners and vandalize their vehicles, if it's okay to torch Tesla chargers, then there was no way it wouldn't be okay to murder a random Walgreens employee over political grievances.
It's wrong and scary.
But this is what Lefty commies do...
