FBI’s Tesla task force is justified– www.washingtonexaminer.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

Last week, the FBI created a task force to investigate a wave of violent attacks targeting Tesla, Department of Government Efficiency chief Elon Musk’s electric vehicle company. This comes in response to at least 80 such cases reported in the United States and Canada in 2025, including torching and shooting Tesla vehicles, vandalism, and planting incendiary devices in Tesla dealerships. The attacks have increased in severity and frequency in recent weeks, which has prompted both Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel to label them as acts of domestic terrorism.

“The FBI has been investigating the increase in violent activity toward Tesla,” Patel wrote on X, “and over the last few days, we have taken the additional steps to crack down and coordinate our response. This is domestic terrorism. Those responsible will be pursued, caught, and brought to justice,”

The multi-agency effort, which will involve the FBI and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives working with state and local law enforcement, is a welcome development. The copycat nature of the attacks — most often, they occur at night by lone attackers — in addition to the high-profile targets and politically charged environment, has raised fears of a deadly escalation. It is crucial that authorities be proactive to prevent such an incident and that examples are made of attackers to deter future copycats.

Monday’s revelation that “incendiary devices” had been found inside the showroom at a Tesla dealership in Austin, Texas, no doubt raised the stakes. Thankfully, they were removed by a bomb squad safely. But the incident underscored the crisis. The Tesla attacks cannot be brushed aside as petty acts of vandalism by young and overeager political activists. They are intended to inspire terror and effect political change. As such, they meet the textbook definition of domestic terrorism.

Excerpt:

On Friday, radical far-left Judge Amy Berman Jackson blocked the dismantling of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, once again overstepping her authority.

She’s one of the many rogue judges working to strip power from the executive branch.

Berman Jackson, like many of her Obama-appointed peers, has used her position as a District Court Judge to relentlessly target and harass Republicans and Trump supporters.

In February, after the Trump administration gutted the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), Berman Jackson stepped in to halt the mass firings.

She also ordered the defendants to preserve all data and records.

Federal Judge Denise Casper Blocks Deportation of Tufts University Student Taken Into Custody by Federal Authorities– conservativeroof.com

Excerpt:

A federal judge in Massachusetts on Friday blocked the deportation of a Tufts University graduate student who was recently taken into custody by federal authorities.

U.S. District Judge Denise Casper ruled that Rumeysa Ozturk, a 30-year-old doctoral student from Turkey, cannot be deported while Casper determines whether the court has jurisdiction over the case.

The Trump administration has been given until April 1 to respond to an amended petition and complaint filed by Ozturk’s lawyers, according to the two-page ruling.

“To allow the Court’s resolution of its jurisdiction to decide the Petition, Ozturk shall not be removed from the United States until further Order of this Court,” the judge stated.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security has accused Ozturk of “engaging in activities in support of Hamas,” a U.S.-designated Palestinian terrorist group that launched the Oct. 7, 2023, attack on Israel.

In her ruling, Casper cited the case of Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian graduate at Columbia University who was arrested and had his green card revoked earlier this month for allegedly leading activities aligned with Hamas. Khalil served as a lead negotiator for students during talks with university administrators over last spring’s pro-Palestinian protests on campus against Israel’s military response to the terrorist attack.

NO REAL CONSEQUENCES: Pennsylvania Man Charged With Misdemeanors After Carving Swastika Into Tesla– conservativeroof.com

Excerpt:

Radical leftists across the nation have been vandalizing Teslas and torching dealerships, all fueled by their irrational hatred of Elon Musk. However, in a surprising turn, one of these unhinged individuals actually made it easier for law enforcement this week.

As NBC 10 Philadelphia reported, an unidentified male was caught on tape vandalizing a Tesla in the parking lot of a Planet Fitness in Doylestown Borough on Monday.

The Bucks County Courier Times reported the man responsible for the vandalism is 55-year-old Chadd Ritenbaug of Doylestown Township.

The Central Bucks Regional Police Department reported that the suspect was captured on the car’s cameras parking next to the Tesla and exiting his silver Lexus. The video then shows him squatting behind the vehicle and carving a swastika into the Tesla just before 9:30 a.m.

But instead of fleeing, Ritenbaugh made another incredibly foolish move—one that would come back to haunt him.

After vandalizing the Tesla, Ritenbaugh walked into Planet Fitness, scanned his membership card at the front desk, and proceeded to work out as if nothing had happened.

Ritenbaugh’s decision allowed police to identify him through his gym membership card and Pennsylvania driver’s license photo.

Judge Blocks Deportation of Foreign Student Arrested by ICE– slaynews.com

Excerpt:

President Donald Trump has made no secret of his intention to deport foreign nationals who support or promote terrorist organizations or otherwise engage in illegal activity.

Not surprisingly, however, the Trump administration has encountered obstacles erected by Democrat-aligned activist federal district court judges who are increasingly asserting a controversial degree of authority over the executive branch.

This was evidenced by a ruling preventing the deportation of a Tufts University graduate student, as Fox News reports.

At issue late last week was the case of Rumeysa Ozturk, 30, an international student from Turkey living in Somerville, Massachusetts, who was detained by federal authorities near her off-campus apartment.

A representative from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) asserted that Ozturk has been “engaged in activities in support of Hamas.”

According to Fox News, she co-authored an op-ed piece last year in the Tufts Daily blasting the school’s stance on Israel’s actions in Gaza.

Ozturk and her co-authors demanded that Tufts “acknowledge the Palestinian genocide” and adjust its financial affairs based on other entities’ ties to the Jewish state.

After her arrest, Ozturk was taken to an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention center, presumably in preparation for eventual deportation, a move her attorneys said was improper due to her status as an F-1 visa holder with no pending criminal charges.

U.S. District Judge Denise Casper halted any deportation plans, saying:

“To allow the Court’s resolution of its jurisdiction to decide the petition, Ozturk shall not be removed from the United States until further order of this court.”

Federal Judge Blocks Trump From Dismantling Voice of America– conservativeroof.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

A federal judge has temporarily blocked the Trump administration from dismantling Voice of America (VOA), the government-funded international news service whose 1,200 reporters and employees were placed on paid leave earlier this month.

The judge, J. Paul Oetken of the Southern District of New York, on Friday issued a temporary restraining order in favor of VOA employees and their unions. The order prevents the U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM), which oversees VOA, from shutting down the broadcasting network and its associated radio programs.

VOA employees filed the lawsuit against USAGM, its acting Director Victor Morales, and special adviser Kari Lake on March 21. The complaint accused the agency of failing to fulfill its legally mandated missions and violating both press freedom and the separation-of-powers doctrine when it took a “chainsaw” to the outlet, ordering the entire staff not to report to work, turning off the service, and locking the agency’s doors.

In his ruling, Oetken stated that VOA was likely to succeed on its claims, noting that USAGM’s actions appeared unconstitutional. He said that Lake lacked legal authority to withhold congressionally appropriated funds or terminate USAGM staff, programming, or contracts.

“By withholding the funds statutorily appropriated to fully administer USAGM, VOA, and its affiliates … the executive is usurping Congress’s power of the purse and its legislative supremacy,” he wrote.

The mega law firm Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP has made peace with President Trump before it was targeted by an executive order.

“Over the past few days, we learned that the Trump Administration intended to issue an executive order directed at Skadden,” London wrote. “We believed it would focus on DEI initiatives and our pro bono activities.”

“With that in mind, we chose to engage proactively and constructively with the Administration to align on a productive path forward without the issuance of an executive order,” he wrote. “We entered into the agreement the President announced today because, when faced with the alternatives, it became clear that it was the best path to protect our clients, our people and our Firm.”

“Not everyone will agree with the decision we made today, and I have great respect for the different views that make us stronger as a Firm,” he wrote. “But I firmly believe that an agreement centered around our pro bono work and complying with the law was an acceptable outcome to ensure Skadden will continue to thrive long into the future. This agreement does not change who we are.”

 

In a post on Truth Social, President Trump revealed the terms of the agreement.

Today, President Donald J. Trump and Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP announce the following agreement regarding a series of actions to be taken by Skadden:

1. Skadden will provide a total of at least $100 Million Dollars in pro bono Legal Services, during the Trump Administration and beyond, to causes that the President and Skadden both support, in relation to the following areas: Assisting Veterans and other Public Servants, including members of the Military, Law Enforcement, First Responders, and Federal, State, and Local Government Officials; ensuring fairness in our Justice System; and combatting Antisemitism. Skadden will change its pro bono policy so that all pro bono moving forward will be done in the Firm name. A pro bono Committee will be constituted to ensure that pro bono matters are consistent with the objectives of the program, and that pro bono activities represent the full political spectrum.

2. The Skadden Foundation will commit to the mission of providing pro bono Legal Services to a wide variety of deserving organizations and individuals. Skadden is committed to funding no fewer than five Skadden Fellows each year dedicated to the following projects: Assisting Veterans; ensuring fairness in our Justice System; combatting Antisemitism, and other similar types of projects. Law Graduates that receive Skadden Fellowships will represent a wide range of political views, including conservative ideals.

3. Skadden affirms its commitment to merit-based hiring, promotion, and retention. Accordingly, the Firm will not engage in illegal DEI discrimination and preferences. Skadden will engage independent outside counsel to advise the Firm to ensure employment practices are fully compliant with Law, including, but not limited to, anti-discrimination Laws.

4. Skadden will not deny representation to clients, such as members of politically disenfranchised groups, who have not historically received legal representation from major National Law Firms, including in pro bono matters, and in support of non-profits, because of the personal political views of individual lawyers.

Statement From the White House: “Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP approached President Trump and his Administration, and declared the Firm’s strong commitment to ending the Weaponization of the Justice System and the Legal Profession. The President will never stop fighting to deliver on his promises of eradicating partisan Lawfare in America, and restoring Liberty & Justice for ALL.”

Statement From Skadden Executive Partner, Jeremy London: “Skadden is pleased to have achieved a successful agreement with President Trump and his Administration. We engaged proactively with the President and his team in working together constructively to reach this agreement. The Firm looks forward to continuing our productive relationship with President Trump and his Admin. We firmly believe that this outcome is in the best interests of our clients, our people, and our Firm.”

‘National Disgrace’ Democratic-Tied Judges Blocking Trump’s Agenda– www.breitbart.com

Excerpt:

Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow said on this week’s broadcast of FNC’s “Sunday Morning Futures” that it was a “national disgrace” that Democratic-tied judges are attempting to block President Donald Trump’s agenda.

Discussing Federal Judge James Boasberg, host Maria Bartiromo said, “So this judge has gotten four cases against the White House., coincidence?

Marlow said, “Of course not. It’s not a coincidence, Maria, what’s going on is judge shopping. This is a practice that’s been in play since 1988 when Congress changed laws so that you don’t have to have any connection to the jurisdiction where you’re filing cases. The Democrats have figured this out, their lawfare machine which is very well funded, very well organized, and they’re targeting specific judges to try to have a judicial coup against the President of the United States.”

He added, “It is now the point now where Donald Trump, if he wants an executive action, he needs unanimous consent from 700 odd judges essentially. This is tyranny, but unfortunately there’s no quick way to stop it. We need to change these rules right away. They’re targeting these judges and it’s blocking just about every element of the agenda from what DOGE is doing to DEI to rolling back some of the trans stuff to deregulation to trying to deport illegally child molesters. They can’t do any of it unless all these judges sign on to it which they’re not. They’re Democratic-tied. You all know what’s going on. This is truly a national disgrace.”

Former Biden Officials Delay Release of Report on Gas Exports and ‘Climate Impact’– slaynews.com

Excerpt:

Former President Joe Biden’s administration recently faced scrutiny after it emerged that officials buried information on the “climate impact” of gas exports.

Biden officials have been delaying the disclosure of a report that concluded the establishment of additional U.S. LNG export terminals did not significantly affect “greenhouse gas emissions” or energy prices, Fox News reported.

The decision to withhold this information sparked criticism from members of Congress and former Trump administration officials, further intensifying the ongoing debate over U.S. energy policy.

This report, finalized by September 2023 and titled “Energy, Economic, and Environmental Assessment of U.S. LNG Exports,” was not made public until after the 2024 presidential election, casting doubt on the administration’s motivations for withholding the findings.

The report was a collaborative effort between U.S. Energy Department scientists and federal contractors, providing a comprehensive evaluation of the implications of U.S. LNG exports.

Poll: Majority Says Attaining Energy Independence More Important than Tackling Climate Change– lidblog.com

Excerpt:

 

A new poll finds that most Americans feel attaining energy independence is far more important than fighting climate change.

A recent Napolitan News Service poll found that 57 percent said that they would rather see government work on energy independence than have government worry about climate change. Only 39 percent felt that climate change was more important.

Per The Center Square:

Half of voters (50%) said keeping the price of cars low was more important to them than reducing emissions, while 43% said emissions reductions were more important than the price of buying a car.

When asked, “Which is more important, reducing greenhouse gas emissions or reducing the cost and improving the reliability of electricity and gas for American families?”, 59% said reducing the cost and increasing the reliability was more important compared to 35% who said reducing emissions was more important.

Trump Is Collapsing the Left’s Patronage Networks– www.dailysignal.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

President Donald Trump has launched a political counterrevolution in the early days of his second presidency. One of the most profound ways he’s doing this is by effectively cutting off the Left’s massive, government-funded patronage networks.

What’s making Trump’s moves so effective is that many of these networks are based on government functions that long ago either waned in usefulness or have completely abandoned their purpose.

Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin appeared on One America News Wednesday and explained how the Left has insidiously transformed the federal government into a Democratic Party funding apparatus.

Zeldin explained how the EPA under the Biden administration was used as a slush fund to give money to activists.

“The EPA was absolutely being used to push out this green slush fund to their friends,” Zeldin said. “By design, the director of the Greenhouse Gas Reduction fund leaves one of these NGOs, goes to work for the Biden administration to design this whole setup, and then sees his former employer get $5 billion.”

Anti-Musk/Tesla Protesters Caught Using Note Cards, ‘Cheat Sheets’– trendingpoliticsnews.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

As far-left activists mobilized across the nation for “Tesla Takedown” protests targeting company owner Elon Musk over his involvement with the Trump Administration, citizen journalists and internet sleuths raised questions about the highly coordinated nature of the “grassroots” protests.

Left-wing activists, pundits and elected Democrats urged supporters to participate in nationwide “Tesla Takedown” protests outside company dealerships over the weekend. While small groups of left-wing protesters have been protesting outside Tesla dealerships for weeks — in addition to increasing acts of violence against Tesla dealers and owners — this weekend’s protests were billed as the biggest yet.

Turnout was rather lackluster outside deep blue enclaves, however. In San Antonio, Texas — the second biggest city in the Lonestar State and one of the most populous in the nation with 1.5 million residents — less than a dozen protesters showed up to each of two planned demonstrations in the city.

Breitbart News reported that the small rabble held up anti-Musk and anti-Trump signs, most of which contained Swastikas and other Nazi imagery.  Despite the pitiful turnout, organizers and city subreddit users described it as “great” and “overwhelming.”

Tesla protestor banner: ‘Burn a Tesla, save democracy’– www.americanthinker.com

Excerpt:

A recent “take down Tesla” protest shut down a road adjoining a Tesla showroom in Manhattan.

Profuse swearing, including many variations of the eff word, could be heard during the demonstration, along with chants of “Elon Musk has got to go.” A banner being held up by multiple protesters read, “Burn a Tesla, Save Democracy.”

(Say what?! These agitators, paid or not, are not rocket scientists. By contrast, Musk — and quite a few of his associates — actually are.)

Talk about a non-sequitur! What does burning a Tesla have to do with saving a democracy?! If anything, it will create fear, chaos, anger, and police action, all anathema to democracy.

What’s the next slogan for these pathetic poetic picketers?

“Rape a girl, fight climate change?” “Slug a Jew, foster tolerance?” “Kill an insurance CEO, preserve morality?” “Torch your town, help local government?” “Ride a cowboy, save the whales?” “Rob a convenience store, save the rainforest?”

Memo to the Tesla torchers: If you don’t believe others have the right to drive the kind of car they want and to make their own decisions and exercise free will, and you feel morally superior in this belief, you are the problem. If you virtue signal by mocking, threatening, and hurting others with whom you disagree, you are the fascist.

States Are Chomping At The Bit To Overhaul America’s Broken Education System– americanactionnews.com
Source Link
Excerpt:

President Donald Trump’s bold plan to eliminate the Department of Education bureaucracy and return education policy to the states represents a long-overdue correction that will empower parents, educators, and local communities to shape the future of learning in America.

For decades, America’s education system has been shackled by federal bureaucracy and inefficiencies. The U.S. Department of Education, created in 1979, has expanded its authority far beyond its original intent, imposing top-down mandates that stifle innovation and burden schools with unnecessary red tape.

Education is not a one-size-fits-all endeavor. What works for one student may not work for another.

This is why, despite the Department of Education’s presence and spending for several decades, fourth- and eighth-grade reading scores have managed to fall since the Department started tracking them in the early 1990s. By dissolving the Department, we return control to those who know best and are directly invested in students’ success — the parents, teachers, and state and local policymakers.

The scores of injunctions against Donald Trump leveled by far-left activist low-level district court judges is pushing this country towards the final Rubicon, where citizens will have to decide whether to continue to accept the tyranny from DNC-colluding judges or finally stand up for America. The rulings just in the last two weeks are numerous, with only a few silver linings mixed within them.

With Each Injunction, Courts Become An Unelected Ruling Class– thefederalist.com

Excerpt:

From the moment President Trump took office, his administration has faced relentless judicial obstruction from liberal activist judges determined to destroy, or at the very least, stall his agenda.

Whether it’s U.S. District Judge James E. Boasberg attempting to block the Trump administration from deporting suspected illegal alien gang members to El Salvador under the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, or U.S. District Judge Ellen Lipton Hollander blocking the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) from accessing Social Security Administration data, federal judges have repeatedly stepped in to undermine executive authority.

Opponents of the Trump administration will cite the U.S. Constitution’s “separation of powers” as justification for the judicial system’s resistance to his agenda, claiming the system crafted by the Founding Fathers is working as designed. However, this is a smokescreen for a far more sinister reality.

America increasingly lives under a Judicial Oligarchy, where the district court system that functions below the Supreme Court has assumed power far beyond its intended limited role, subverting the executive and legislative branches to impose a policy agenda dictated not by elected representatives but by unelected judges.

According to a Fox News report, nationwide injunctions against President Trump’s first administration accounted for more than half of the total injunctions ordered against the federal government since 1963.

After a Signal chat was shared by Atlantic Monthly editor Jeffrey Goldberg allegedly showing the war plans for an attack on the Houthis, the administration has countered the charges, saying no war plans were leaked. Goldberg ended up being included in a group chat on Signal that included members of Trump’s administration, including JD Vance and Pete Hegseth.

Now, a lawsuit filed by American Oversight, a far-left insurrectionist organization, claiming the use of Signal Chat violates the Hatch act, has been given to insurrectionist far left activist judge James E. Boasberg, the January 6 Judge that likes to give long sentences to Americans and short ones to terrorists. MIA will be tracking this story and may report on it in detail in a future issue should events warrant.

Judge Boasberg Assigned to Oversee Lawsuit Involving Pete Hegseth, Rep. Mike Waltz Over Signal Chat– conservativeroof.com

Excerpt:

The far-left watchdog group American Oversight has filed a lawsuit targeting some of President Trump’s most loyal warriors, including Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, CIA Director John Ratcliffe, and DNI Tulsi Gabbard. Their supposed crime? Using the double-encrypted messaging app Signal to communicate about military operations.

This latest witch hunt stems from a wild claim by Jeffrey Goldberg, the notoriously anti-Trump editor-in-chief of The Atlantic.

Goldberg claimed he was “accidentally” added to a secure Signal group chat where top Trump officials were allegedly discussing sensitive military actions against Iran-backed Houthi terrorists in Yemen.

During a Senate Intel Committee hearing on Tuesday, CIA Director John Ratcliffe blew Goldberg’s story to smithereens. Ratcliffe testified that no undercover CIA agent was part of the Signal chat—debunking the leftist fantasy of some cloak-and-dagger conspiracy. He confirmed that Signal is fully approved for government use.

In fact, the app was installed on his own computer by the CIA after he took the job, the Obama administration used Signal too.

As reported Trump team angrily fired back and called Goldberg a liar, saying no war plans were discussed. Now, Goldberg and his co-worker Shane Harris have published details of the military plans against the Houthis to call Team Trump’s bluff and humiliate Trump.

Ratcliffe and Gabbard both doubled down, stating unequivocally that no classified information was shared in the chat. Yet, that didn’t stop American Oversight from filing a lawsuit demanding a temporary restraining order.

An election for a seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court could determine who controls the U.S. House in 2027. A Democrat win will assure a new redistricting by the court that will significantly favor Democrats while a GOP win will prevent the gerrymandering from happening.

President Trump and Elon Musk have both stepped into the fray, with Musk pumping in money to support the GOP candidate, Brad Schimel, while Trump has openly endorsed him and called on his supporters to make sure he wins. Trump said, “WISCONSIN: There is a very important Election for State Supreme Court on April 1st, and Early Voting is now underway.”

Excerpt:

With a week and a day to go before what has been billed as “the most important election of 2025,” President Trump is weighing in on the Wisconsin Supreme Court race.

In a post on Truth Social, the president has endorsed conservative candidate Brad Schimel and the voting strategy that helped Trump re-take critical swing state Wisconsin in November’s sea-change election.

“WISCONSIN: There is a very important Election for State Supreme Court on April 1st, and Early Voting is now underway,” Trump first wrote Friday on his social media platform.

Next Tuesday’s election will decide whether conservatives or leftists control Wisconsin’s Supreme Court. Policy in politically-divided Wisconsin isn’t merely on the line. A left-led court could prove pivotal in delivering the U.S. House of Representatives back to Democrats in 2026 via a court-approved redrawing of the Badger State’s congressional maps, as fat cat lib donors have pledged.
