I really thought we were finally done changing the damn clocks.
The House already passed the Sunshine Protection Act. Now it’s sitting in the Senate Commerce Committee, and as of today it still hasn’t become law. (Senate Commerce Committee)
So unless that changes, we’re still falling back an hour this November.
Man… can we please just pick a time and leave the clocks alone already?
🚨 BREAKING: Victor Davis Hanson Drops a Fiery Truth Bomb! 🔥
“We didn’t storm the beaches of Normandy… didn’t bleed and die in the trenches of World War I… didn’t sacrifice everything in World War II… JUST TO BE LECTURED BY NEWCOMERS on why America is ‘racist’ and ‘flawed’!”
Do you think Hamilton and Jefferson fought and died for YOU?
250 years of American blood—from Gettysburg to Belleau Wood to Iwo Jima—only for first- and second-generation arrivals to march in and declare:
“Your Constitution is garbage. The Founders were racists. When we take power, we’re tearing it all down.”
ENOUGH.
This is OUR country. We built it. We defended it with our lives.
If you come here, assimilate—or go home.

No - he did not "sit on the sidelines" - he ran interference for the other side...as most of you know I was the lead investigator into the "pallets of ballots" investigation where more than 640,000 (minimum) curated ballots were transported from Bethpage, NY to Lancaster PA the first week of October 2020 to be pre-staged to be dumped into the Dem controlled Philly voting precincts on election day...and Bill Barr literally called me, tried to order me to turn over our witness to him (which I refused to do) and then Barr had me fired from the investigations minutes later...he was not a passive dupe, he was a front and center key conspirator...
I want to shake the hand of the guy who wrote this...
Have you ever seen a Muslim hospital?
Have you heard a Muslim orchestra?
Have you seen a Muslim band march in a parade?
Have you witnessed a Muslim charity?
Have you shaken hands with a Muslim Girl Scout?
Have you seen a Muslim Candy Striper?
The answer is no, you have not. Just ask yourself WHY ???
Barack Obama, during his Cairo speech, said: "I know, too, that Islam has always been a part of America 's history."
AN AMERICAN CITIZEN'S RESPONSE
Dear Mr. Obama:
Were those Muslims that were in America when the Pilgrims first landed? Funny, I thought they were Native American Indians.
Were those Muslims who celebrated the first Thanksgiving Day? Sorry again, those were Pilgrims and Native American Indians.
Can you show me one Muslim signature on the United States Constitution?
Declaration of Independence?
Bill of Rights?
Didn't think so.
Did Muslims fight for this country's freedom from England? No.
Did Muslims fight during the Civil War to free the slaves in America? No, they did not.
In fact, Muslims to this day are still the largest traffickers in human slavery. Your own half-brother, a devout Muslim, still advocates slavery himself, even though Muslims of Arabic descent refer to black Muslims as "pug-nosed slaves." Says a lot about what the Muslim world really thinks of your family's "rich Islamic heritage," doesn't it, Mr. Obama?
Where were Muslims during the Civil Rights era of this country?
Not present.
There are no pictures or media accounts of Muslims walking side by side with Martin Luther King, Jr. or helping to advance the cause of Civil Rights.
Where were Muslims during this country's Women's Suffrage era?
Again, not present. In fact, devout Muslims demand that women are subservient to men in the Islamic culture. So much so that they are often beaten for not wearing the 'hijab' or for talking to a man who is not a direct family member or their husband. Yep, the Muslims are all for women's rights, aren't they?
Where were Muslims during World War II?
They were aligned with Adolf Hitler. The Muslim grand mufti himself met with Adolf Hitler, reviewed the troops, and accepted support from the Nazi's in killing Jews.
Finally, Mr. Obama, where were Muslims on Sept. 11th, 2001?
If they weren't flying planes into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, or a field in Pennsylvania, killing nearly 3,000 people on our own soil, they were rejoicing in the Middle East. No one can dispute the pictures shown from all parts of the Muslim world celebrating on CNN, Fox News, MSNBC, and other cable news networks that day. Strangely, the very "moderate" Muslims whose asses you bent over backward to kiss in Cairo, Egypt on June 4th were stone cold silent post 9-11. To many Americans, their silence has meant approval for the acts of that day.
And THAT, Mr. Obama, is the "rich heritage" Muslims have here in America ...
Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot to mention the Barbary Pirates. They were Muslims.
And now we can add November 5, 2009 - the slaughter of American soldiers at Fort Hood by a Muslim major who is a doctor and a psychiatrist who was supposed to be counseling soldiers returning from battle in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Also, don't forget the Boston Marathon bombing on April 15.2013 was done by 2 Muslim Brothers. That, Mr. Obama, is the "Muslim heritage" in America
EVERY AMERICAN MUST READ THIS !!
Be sure to SEND IT TO ALL.
Muslim Heritage,
When I was a Delta pilot, I used to layover in Minneapolis a lot. I visited the Mall of America a few years ago. I’d heard about it and had lots of time to kill. The copilot told me not to waste my time but I was super bored. I went for it.
I immediately regretted it. I felt like I was back in Mogadishu in 1993. Black Hawk Down vibes. It’s a third world hell hole. Couldn’t wait to leave. It’s not the United States, it’s Somalia.
We don’t want it and we don’t want @Ilhan.
Tell us you have no clue what the First Amendment says without telling us, you journalistic subtard.
No one is preventing CNN, Politico or the desiccated husk of MSNBC from writing or broadcasting whatever the hell they want.
However, they have no First Amendment right to privileged White House access.
And if you think there is such a right, then think it through. That means every citizen journalist on X has a First Amendment right to privileged White House access.
That makes about as much sense as your moronic, ill-advised, dysfunctional, ill-informed and wholly irrational post below.
This is incredibly insulting to those of us who took this oath with actual meaning and consequences.
When Jamie Lee Curtis is willing to jump on a live grenade, call me.
BREAKING NEWS: I am pleased to announce that the United States of America has entered into an Agreement with The Kingdom of Denmark, and Greenland, that gives the United States permanent control over security, and all other needs, in Greenland, completely addressing ALL of our many U.S. concerns. There will be NO COST to the United States! At my direction, we worked with representatives of Denmark and Greenland to guarantee that the United States will FOREVER have the complete ability to do what is necessary in Greenland in order to secure and defend the security of Greenland, and the United States of America. Additionally, from now on, no U.S. adversary can EVER have a base in Greenland, have a military presence in Greenland, or make sensitive investments in Greenland, without our express written approval. For over 100 years, Presidents have known the strategic importance of Greenland, but NONE of them were able to do anything about it. I am proud to be the President that permanently and conclusively addressed this very important situation. This is an “Infinite Life” Agreement, there is no end! We are very honored and proud of what has just taken place, and everything agreed to today will be cherished by the American People. We will immediately begin the process of developing a large Military presence in the appropriate part of Greenland, of which there are many. We will work with the people of Greenland in its development and construction. This solution is a great one for the United States of America, Denmark, Greenland, and all of our Allies. We look forward to working with the wonderful people of Denmark and Greenland toward a magnificent future with respect to this large, and highly strategic, parcel of land. We will be very protective of it! This is a dream come true for the United States of America, one that is very important, historic, and special. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP
Hasan Piker is the poster child for why we need to end birth tourism. He was born in America to Turkish nationals, was raised back in Turkey to hate western civilization, and now spends his time working to make America weaker and our enemies stronger.
Funny how the entire internet can speak for Patrick and his new wife, stalk them, photograph them, accuse him of murdering his own children, and invent the most unhinged conspiracies imaginable. But the moment he actually speaks for himself, suddenly it’s “off” and “makes him look guilty.”
LOL. Hear yourselves.
You’ve spent months running your mouths about this man and his dead children. He gets to tell his story. You don’t get to decide when, where, or how he’s allowed to speak.
And maybe show a little compassion for a father whose children were murdered. He doesn’t owe the internet widowhood forever. He is allowed to remarry. He is allowed to try to rebuild his life. He is allowed to have a family again.
It has been over three years. Leave this man alone and go touch some grass.
In a stunning political move, the chief judge of the Minneapolis federal bench disclosed the behind the scenes collaboration between all judges to thwart legal proceedings related to immigration cases this year.
Patrick Schiltz, who admitted his longtime involvement in a pro-migrant nonprofit, reveals how judges remained on their cell phones nonstop to halt deportation proceedings. And rather than evaluate each case individually—as is required—the judges developed pro forma orders (as I predicted) to immediately stop cases in their tracks.
This is something:
Schiltz: “Some judges built templates of legal orders so they could respond quickly to some of the detention issues that were arising again and again.”
The Pennsylvania Constitution Cannot Be Circumvented
Sen. Doug Mastriano (R-33)
Gov. Josh Shapiro’s Department of Health (DOH) is creating regulations that would expand its authority to wield the same power Gov. Tom Wolf did in 2020-21. These regulations threaten to give the governor sweeping emergency power Pennsylvania voters acted to limit in 2021. If the governor can simply move that power into the DOH and exercise it through regulation, then the constitutional protection adopted by the people means little.
Pennsylvanians remember why they changed their constitution. In 2020, Gov. Wolf used extraordinary emergency powers to control the commonwealth. Department of Health Sec. Levine drove the administration’s public-health response, while Shapiro backed Wolf and Levine’s policies as Pennsylvania’s attorney general. Today, Shapiro is governor, and his DOH is seeking expanded regulatory authority. We cannot separate what is happening now from what Pennsylvanians experienced then.
Pennsylvanians remember this because we lived it. Government shut down schools and sent children home. Students lost proms, graduations, sports seasons and milestones they never got back. Parents struggled to work while their children sat at kitchen tables staring into computer screens instead of sitting in classrooms.
Government decided which businesses were essential and which were non-essential, then ordered those it deemed non-essential to close. Men and women who had spent decades building a family business, supporting their families and employing their neighbors suddenly had government tell them their livelihood was “non-essential.” Revenue stopped, but mortgages, rent, utilities, insurance and bills did not. Employees lost paychecks and jobs. Independent business owners watched everything they had spent their lives building hang in the balance.
Truckers tried to keep Pennsylvania moving, but closures and restrictions made it hard for them to find food, restrooms, places to rest and safe places to park. Churches faced pressure to cancel worship. Pennsylvanians endured battles over mask and vaccination mandates, and personal medical decisions that raised fundamental questions about bodily autonomy, religious liberty and how far government should be allowed to reach into our lives.
Perhaps nothing was more painful than what happened to our elderly and vulnerable. Families were separated from parents and grandparents in nursing homes and long-term-care facilities. Husbands and wives were separated. Children stood outside windows trying to see their parents. Some Pennsylvanians died without their families beside them, while sons and daughters were denied the chance to hold a parent's hand, pray at the bedside or say goodbye. COVID-19 also devastated Pennsylvania’s veterans’ homes. Veterans who had sacrificed for our nation became sick and died while serious questions mounted about management and oversight.
These were not statistics on a government spreadsheet. They were our mothers and fathers, grandparents, veterans, children, workers, neighbors and small-business owners. Government decisions reached directly into our classrooms, churches, nursing homes, businesses and homes.
Then the people got their say. In 2021, Pennsylvania voters changed our constitution to limit a governor’s disaster emergency declaration to 21 days unless the General Assembly acts to extend it. Three weeks. After that, the people’s elected representatives have a constitutional role.
That was not a recommendation. It was not an opinion poll. It was not a request that future governors could choose to honor or ignore. The people amended their constitution. That is the law. That brings us directly back to Gov. Shapiro and the DOH.
If DOH can invoke broad disease-control authority and issue sweeping orders beyond three weeks without the General Assembly, then we face an obvious question: Has the governor found a way to ignore the voice of the people?
Gov. Shapiro cannot play a shell game with the constitution. Moving authority from the governor’s desk to the DOH does not make the constitution disappear. Calling government action a “regulation,” or “control measure” rather than an “emergency declaration” does not change what that power actually does or how it affects the people subjected to it.
The DOH is not a fourth branch of government. It is an executive agency. Its authority comes from law, and it is bound by the Pennsylvania Constitution. An administrative agency cannot use regulations to rewrite the constitution, give itself authority the legislature never granted or provide the governor with a back door around constitutional restrictions on executive power.
Shapiro knows this history firsthand. He served as attorney general throughout the Wolf administration’s COVID-19 response and backed Wolf and Levine’s policies. Now he sits in the governor’s office, and his DOH seeks expanded regulatory authority. His administration should answer some very simple questions: Where does this power come from? What limits it? How long can it last? Where is the General Assembly? And how does it respect the constitutional change the people demanded in 2021?
I did not watch the fight over emergency powers from the sidelines. I was a leader in that fight, and I remember the Pennsylvanians who reached out to us. I remember business owners who were shut down, workers who lost their paychecks, parents whose children could not go to school and families who could not visit their parents and grandparents. I remember their anger, frustration, fear and heartbreak.
For those Pennsylvanians, changing the constitution was not an academic legal exercise or a political argument inside the State Capitol. It came directly from what they had lived through.
This is bigger than Wolf, Shapiro or any political party. The same constitutional limits must bind a Republican governor and a Democratic governor. We do not limit governmental power because we distrust one politician. We limit governmental power because no governor and no administration should stand above the constitution.
Pennsylvanians remember the closed businesses and lost jobs. They remember empty classrooms, canceled proms, graduations and lost sports seasons. They remember parents and grandparents behind nursing-home windows. They remember our veterans homes. They remember churches struggling to gather, truckers struggling to find places to stop and workers confronting government mandates involving their livelihoods and their own bodies.
The people remember because they lived it.
And then the people voted.
We the people by a majority vote changed our constitution because they had seen what prolonged unilateral emergency power could do. They demanded a check on that power and placed that check in the fundamental law of this commonwealth. Government does not get to erase their decision because it finds the people’s answer inconvenient.
The Pennsylvania Constitution is not a bureaucratic obstacle for Shapiro — or any governor — to maneuver around. It is the fundamental law of this commonwealth. The governor is bound by it. His DOH is bound by it. Every executive agency is bound by it.
The people lived through the emergency. They saw their schools closed, their businesses shuttered, their livelihoods threatened, their loved ones isolated and their freedoms restricted. They demanded a change. They voted. They changed their constitution.
Gov. Shapiro does not get to push the people’s voices aside by using an executive agency to recreate the prolonged emergency authority they acted to limit.
The people changed the law. Their government must obey it.
