"Trump and MAGA spent years screaming that the Justice Department was being weaponized against them. Turns out that was their plan all along.

Today alone the DOJ filed a new multibillion-dollar lawsuit against Harvard (the second in a month) demanding the school pay back federal grants over antisemitism allegations. A federal judge already ruled last year that the White House illegally pulled Harvard’s funding and called the antisemitism argument a “smokescreen.” What Trump actually wants is control over Harvard’s admissions, hiring, and curriculum. Harvard said no. So now they’re getting sued again."


"The DOJ’s so-called “grand conspiracy” probe subpoenaed former FBI Director James Comey. This investigation has now issued more than 130 subpoenas targeting Obama and Biden-era officials. It’s being run by a Trump-appointed U.S. attorney in Florida, with Judge Aileen Cannon overseeing the grand jury the same judge who went to extraordinary lengths to protect Trump in the classified documents case. A previous attempt to prosecute Comey already failed. John Durham spent years chasing the same conspiracy theory and found nothing. They don’t care. The point isn’t to win in court. The point is to punish.

And Colombian President Gustavo Petro (one of Trump’s loudest critics) is reportedly under criminal investigation by at least two U.S. federal prosecutors’ offices.

This is the DOJ as a weapon. Against universities that won’t submit, officials who investigated Trump, and foreign leaders who won’t fall in line. Every accusation is a confession!"

I'll admit I don't understand how the government could pull a university's grant illegally, unless there was some form of contract between the two parties. If the government issues a grant, it's based on something, or at least should be. I imagine there are some forms of checks and balances insuring that the money is being spent as it was intended, and if not, there should be a way to recover those funds.

Wasn't Harvard the university that was taking such a large % off the top of the grant for overhead cost?

But the government should not be in a position of controlling any University's admissions, unless the University is violating discrimination or other federal laws. But, I get it, trump doesn't like harvard

It's not that they want reimbursement for the grants because they have an issue with the research projects themselves, it's because they want to take a pound of flesh with their trumped up anti-semitism charges because they can. It's sick that this temporary, vengeful administration would seek to do harm to one of our most venerable institutions because of the perception that they are "woke" and won't bend the knee.

I want to thank @POTUS for his leadership in finding a way to pay our TSA officers to end this chaos at our airports. These hours long lines and thousands of Americans missing their flights was caused solely by the Democrats reckless @DHSgov shutdown.

Many of DHS’ frontline workers are still not being paid including @FEMA, @USCG, and @CISAgov.

The Democrats must stop playing political games with our national security, quit punishing our employees, and re-open DHS.

🚨BREAKING: President Trump to SIGN Executive Order directing DHS Sec. Markwayne Mullin to pay TSA Workers IN Full to stop the airport chaos caused by the Democrats!

"The Radical Left Democrats, and their “Leader,” Cryin’ Chuck Schumer, have made it very clear where they stand, and that is, ON THE SIDE OF CRIMINAL ILLEGAL ALIENS, AND NOT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. They are refusing to fund Immigration Enforcement unless the Republicans agree to their Open Border Policies, which will never, ever happen again.

"They almost destroyed our Country, allowing 25 Million People to enter from Prisons, Mental Institutions, and Insane Asylums, those that are Drug Dealers, and thousands of Murderers, many of whom killed more than one person. Because the Democrats have recklessly created a true National Crisis, I am using my authorities under the Law to protect our Great Country, as I always will do!

"Therefore, I am going to sign an Order instructing the Secretary of Homeland Security, Markwayne Mullin, to immediately pay our TSA Agents in order to address this Emergency Situation, and to quickly stop the Democrat Chaos at the Airports.

"It is not an easy thing to do, but I am going to do it! I want to thank our hardworking TSA Agents and also, ICE, for the incredible help they have given us at the Airports. I will not allow the Radical Left Democrats to hold our Country hostage any longer. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP"

This is the way! How long before Boasberg overstep & tried to sue Trump for this?

Anybody who tries to claim that the Trump admin hasn't delivered on immigration is purposefully lying to you.

Zero illegal aliens are being released into the country, net immigration is down for the first time in decades, we we've had negative net migration for the first time in 50 years.

Don't let professional demoralizers tell you otherwise.

The only reason he did it was because Musk offered to pay their wages. There was no way donnie was going to be upstaged by Musk.

Fake Trump: "I'm going to be the peace time President ... only losers get into wars."

Trump, after truth serum: "We're only here to kill people."

Early online scuttlebutt (take it for what it's worth), the firings are because Driscoll and George wouldn't remove a couple of officers from the promotion list because they felt they deserved it due to years of exemplary service (from NYT.) I would assume there's more to it, but this is what's leaking now.

not to denigrate these two generals, but there are thousands of army officers with years of exemplary service. In fact, for career officers exemplary service is a norm.

🚨 GREAT NEWS: Trump’s budget bill submitted to Congress today begins the process of PRIVATIZING TSA

Airports taking part in a test program which TSA pays private screeners have ALREADY proven significant cost savings, per the White House

PRIVATIZE IT! 🔥

WHITE HOUSE: “The Budget begins the privatization of TSA's airport screeners by requiring small airports to enroll in the Screening Partnership Program, under which TSA pays for private screeners at designated airports.

The airports that already use this program have demonstrated savings compared to Federal screening operations.

The move would yield cost savings compared to Federal screening and begin reform of a troubled Federal agency.”
