Trump Wins
Late yesterday, the Supreme Court waded into the “controversy” of whether President Trump could deport vicious illegal alien gang members under the Alien Enemies Act (AEA).
Just to be clear, there is no controversy among the American people. The public overwhelmingly supports President Trump’s efforts to kick illegal alien gang members out of the country. But left-wing activists and radical judges keep preventing Trump from doing what he promised to do.
Judge James Boasberg, an Obama-appointed district court judge in Washington, D.C., issued a nationwide injunction blocking the president from using the AEA to deport illegal aliens. He also ordered the president to turn planes around midair and bring the gang members back to America.
The Supreme Court just put Boasberg in his place.
Constitutional law professor Jonathan Turley said that the court’s 5-to-4 opinion was a “considerable victory” for the Trump administration. The majority ruled that because the detainees are being held in Texas, this is a habeas corpus case that should be settled in Texas.
For those not familiar with legal jargon, habeas corpus is Latin for “produce the body” and refers to legal challenges against unjust arrest or detention. Such cases have to be filed in the jurisdiction where the individual is detained.
In short, the Supreme Court told Judge Boasberg he had no jurisdiction over this case and never should have taken it. As a result, Boasberg canceled a hearing that was scheduled for this afternoon.
Turley added, “Both sides can walk away with something in this opinion” because the justices did agree on one thing: detainees subject to deportation do have a “due process” right to challenge their deportation.
However, that process will be carried out in Texas, not Washington, D.C. And it will be conducted under habeas corpus procedures that don’t bode well for illegal aliens, especially if they were previously issued deportation orders from immigration courts, meaning they already had due process and defied orders to leave the country.
Once again, Justice Amy Coney Barrett sided with the court’s liberals, but not with their entire dissenting opinion.
She seemed to disagree with the majority’s view that this is really a habeas corpus case, leading Turley to ask, “If it is not a habeas [case], what is it?” Turley continued, “Barrett’s adoption of a fraction of the dissenting opinion left much unclear as to her view on what standard applies to these detainees.”
Trump Wins Again
The Supreme Court gave President Trump another legal victory today. It threw out a ruling from a judge in San Francisco blocking the administration from firing federal workers on probationary status.
I could not see the legal justification for a judge in San Francisco to dictate employment rules for the federal government in Washington, D.C. It seems a majority of the justices couldn’t find it either.
In what appears to be a 7-to-2 ruling, the high court declared that left-wing nonprofit groups have no standing or legal right to challenge the federal government’s employment decisions.
Importing Voters
President Trump recently teased the nation by saying Elon Musk and the DOGE team just found something “horrible.” They’ve already found a lot of “horrible” things! But I want to revisit what Antonio Gracias, a member of the DOGE team, found at the Social Security Administration.
We had four years of record illegal immigration under the Biden/Harris regime. That wasn’t an accident. It was a deliberate policy decision to open borders and let as many people in as possible.
Why? Because they were trying to overwhelm the system with a specific goal in mind. They were importing voters.
Gracias found that nearly four million illegal aliens were issued Social Security cards during the Biden years. At least 1.3 million of those illegal aliens signed up for Medicaid. But that wasn’t the only thing they were signed up for.
The Biden administration ordered all federal agencies to launch voter registration programs, including more than 1,000 Social Security Administration offices around the country. The Biden White House demanded progress reports from all departments -- Agriculture, Commerce, Defense, Energy, HHS, HUD, Interior, etc., etc.
The predictable result – the left’s desired result – was that thousands and thousands of these illegal aliens with Social Security cards and Medicaid benefits were registered to vote. And, according to Gracias, many of them did vote. In a recent interview, he said:
“We looked at voter rolls, and we found that thousands [of illegal aliens] are registered to vote in friendly states. And we looked even further in those friendly states and found that many of those people had actually voted. It was shocking to us. I think this was a move to import voters.”
This was all part of the government-wide travesty that the Biden/Harris gang ran to weaponize every federal agency against us. Every bureau and every department was a political tool to be used to ensure their grip on power.
There must be serious congressional investigations into this abuse, and people need to be held accountable!
The Shadow Presidency
With the 2024 election past us, the liberal media has finally let the cat out of the bag. I hope you’re sitting down because this is really shocking news. . . Joe Biden was mentally unfit to be president!
We know this because multiple left-wing journalists are writing books about his condition and how it was covered up for four years. What a stunning revelation! I bet you’re as shocked as I am. Who knew?!
Everyone knew, and they all lied about it!
Sarcasm aside, this is no laughing matter. It is a gigantic scandal!
We have no idea who was really running the White House. Some unknown group of individuals acted as president of the United States, and the American people were regularly lied to.
Republicans have got to dig deep on this and keep on it. Some will say, “You’re focusing on the past. We need to move on.”
NO!
The Democrats have never “moved on” from January 6th. They spent four years obsessing over it and they will continue obsessing over it.
Biden’s White House physician must testify publicly before Congress. There are renewed demands for him to do so. If he refuses, subpoena him. If he ignores the subpoena, charge him with contempt of Congress. And then Attorney General Pam Bondi can prosecute him just like Democrats prosecuted Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro.
Personnel Is Policy
Whenever a president is elected, they bring thousands of people into the administration to help run the government. We tend to focus on the big things in Washington, D.C., when the president makes headlines. But we often miss the “little things,” decisions made by others that fly under the radar, which are often very important.
During the Biden years, there were a hundred “little things” happening every day that undermined free speech, religious liberty, and parental rights that never made headlines. When we’re in office, the same thing happens, but in a positive way.
Three years ago, a church in Palm Coast, Florida, had the audacity to pray for a local school board candidate when she visited the church. And, of course, the left seized the opportunity. Biden’s IRS told the church that it violated the Johnson Amendment, which prohibits churches from engaging in political activity, and launched a full investigation.
In the last few weeks, the IRS announced that it was ending the investigation. What changed? The political oversight of the IRS changed.
The left’s efforts to silence churches under Biden is now a movement to free pastors to speak from the pulpit about whatever is on their mind without fear of government retribution.
The IRS caved because, under President Trump, there is a major effort to get rid of the Johnson Amendment once and for all. And I am proud to say that American Values and the James Dobson Family Institute are part of that effort!
