Trump Becomes First Sitting President to Attend Supreme Court Oral Arguments, Showing Up to Hear Discussion About His Birthright Citizenship Executive Order
Oh no Trump is threatening the Supreme Court with his presence or something
President Donald Trump plans to sit in on Wednesday's Supreme Court hearing on birthright citizenship, making him the first sitting president to attend oral arguments at the nation's highest court. The Republican president's official schedule, sent out by the White House, included a stop at the Supreme Court, where justices will hear Trump's appeal of a lower court ruling that struck down his executive order limiting birthright citizenship. The order, which Trump signed on the first day of his second term, declared that children born to parents who are in the United States illegally or temporarily are not American citizens. It's an about-face from the long-standing view that the Constitution's 14th Amendment and federal law since 1940 confer citizenship to everyone born on American soil, with narrow exceptions. It's not the first time Trump has considered showing up for a high court hearing. Last year, Trump said that he badly wanted to attend a hearing on whether he overstepped federal law with his sweeping tariffs, but he decided against it, saying it would have been a distraction. On Tuesday, however, Trump seemed more sure he'd be in court for Wednesday's hearing while he spoke with reporters in the Oval Office. "I'm going," Trump said, when the upcoming arguments in the birthright citizenship case were mentioned. To a follow-up question clarifying that he planned to go in person, Trump said, "I think so, I do believe."The argument is about the 14th Amendment's declaration that any person "born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof" is a citizen. This was intended to make it clear that slaves released from bondage after the Civil War were now citizens. The whole point of the "and subject to the jurisdiction thereof" line was to make it clear that this did not apply to foreigners, who are subject to the jurisdiction of a foreign sovereign. We should win this case on the merits, but we're fighting against more than logic here. Meanwhile, a drunk Congresskaren overreacted as we've come to expect AWFULs to overreact 24/7/365:

Wednesday Morning Rant
Declining Standards
There are many reasons that naysayers looked at the prospect of state-sponsored "assisted suicide" with everything from trepidation to open horror. These reasons range from the religious to the moral to the pragmatic, but there have been many objectors wherever such notions have been floated. In this country, it's a state-level consideration. In other countries, like Canada, it's national. More states and countries every year enable it, and the naysayers now have the records of places where it has already been done to point to.
One thing that state-sponsored "assisted suicide" has demonstrated is that on this particular topic, the goalposts aren't merely mobile, they have wheels and powerful engines to propel them down the field. Yesterday, Ace posted an ad from Canada, encouraging that country's flavor of euthanasia (called MAID) by extolling the virtues of offing yourself. In his Morning Rant yesterday, CBD mentioned the legal battle over what became Spain's youngest person killed through its euthanasia program.

The Morning Report — 4/1/26
And speaking of regime change beginning at home as well as President Donald Trump, he has done more to change the regime of business as usual here at home than any President since Reagan and Coolidge. Certainly more than the GOP that has been stabbing him in the back at almost every turn. For example:
And if none of this is interesting enough, we have Muslim boys molesting girl mannequins for your April Fool's entertainment.
And to my fellow Jews and really to all of you, I send Passover greetings and wishes for a Ziessen Pesach and may the angel of death pass over you and pay a nice long visit to all our enemies, wherever they lurk. May they be thwarted, defeated and their legacy of dissolution and destruction be eradicated and expunged for all time. Have a great day!
And lastly, a quick shout-out and a huge thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.
Writing in Ynet on Tuesday, Israeli military analyst Ron Ben-Yishai — a veteran Yediot Ahronot correspondent and Israel Prize recipient — assessed that the strike reflects a deliberate U.S. effort to neutralize Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile by entombing it beneath rock, soil, and collapsed tunnel infrastructure rather than attempting to remove it by force.Perhaps this was the plan all along and the deployment of several thousand US troops to or near the theatre was a big head-fake. Iran's nuclear program was always the prime if not sole reason why the President decided to attack, with regime change or as it stands the chance for regime change an enticing side benefit. With the Strait of Hormuz effectively closed, the pressure on the global economy as the free flow of Middle Eastern oil is severely hampered is tremendous, to say nothing of the political pressure as gas prices rise as a crucial midterm election season kicks into high gear.
President Donald Trump said Tuesday that Operation Epic Fury in Iran will come to an end in the next two or three weeks, or perhaps even sooner.If the reports of Iran's enriched Uranium stockpile being buried forever are accurate, that is certainly a very good thing. And assuming their centrifuges are now also a pile of rubble and their nuclear and rocket scientists now so much moldering worm food, the odds of them being able to reconstitue what they once had, certainly in the near term are low. But, can we really breathe a sigh of relief if even a shadow of the Mullahocracy is allowed to take the reins of power. We are after all dealing not only with a 47-year old regime but with a 1500-year old ideology spanning the globe that seeks to conquer it and make it Planet Islam. Yes, regime change is a good thing, But regime change begins at home!
The apparent eagerness of Trump to make a deal with Iran, leaving in place the current regime, has left many Iranians feeling deceived and disappointed. They are particularly alarmed that his mediators have been talking to the speaker of Iran’s parliament, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf. More on Ghalibaf can be found here: “Iranians feel ‘deceived, abandoned’ as Trump weighs striking deal with Iran’s old guard,” by Omid Habibinia, The Media Line, March 25, 2026 . . .Well, dear Persians, my message to you is put your own asses on the line. We've done more than enough heavy lifting already. The rest is up to you. What's better, living on your knees of dying on your feet?! I hope it doesn't come to that for you and every innocent decent person, but the ball is in your court.
And speaking of regime change beginning at home as well as President Donald Trump, he has done more to change the regime of business as usual here at home than any President since Reagan and Coolidge. Certainly more than the GOP that has been stabbing him in the back at almost every turn. For example:
President Donald Trump on Tuesday evening signed an executive order focused on election integrity, including a measure to ensure that mail-in ballots are sent to eligible voters and returned by them. Trump signed the order in the Oval Office while flanked by White House staff secretary Will Scharf and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick . . . “We’re going to take federal data, we’re going to ensure that each state’s election officials are provided with a comprehensive view of who the eligible voters in their jurisdiction actually are, allowing them to properly verify that everybody voting in their elections is legally able to vote,’ Scharf said of the first measure.No doubt the lawsuits and phony injunctions from Justices Buch M. Danno and Mac A. Damia will be forthcoming. But still. At least we at long last have a real leader putting his ass on the line, unlike the GOP that is doing jack shit and worse, doing what they can to sabotage the efforts. And speaking of literally leading from the front:
President Trump to Attend SCOTUS Oral Arguments on Birthright Citizenship. . . Soon after taking office last year, Trump signed an executive order to end birthright citizenship for the U.S.-born children of illegal aliens and foreign tourists, often referred to as “anchor babies” as they anchor their parents permanently in the U.S. and can sponsor their immediate relatives for green cards once they become of legal age.Wow. I'm no presidential historian but I think this is unprecedented. That said, I know of no rule that forbids Trump from sitting in on the SCOTUS session, especially since he himself, or his policy, is one of the parties in the case. My first reaction is perhaps politically it's not such a great move as it gives the Leftists a potential talking point to attack him as a tyrant/Hitler intimidating the judiciary or some such rot. Then again, it brings the issue of the madness of the birthright citizenship abomination into the public discourse, alongside the madness of illegal aliens and election non-integrity that illegal aliens voting is a huge part of. God bless and keep President Trump. Say what you will, but this is what I voted for. LEGALLY three times. One vote in each of three elections, for the record.
And if none of this is interesting enough, we have Muslim boys molesting girl mannequins for your April Fool's entertainment.
And to my fellow Jews and really to all of you, I send Passover greetings and wishes for a Ziessen Pesach and may the angel of death pass over you and pay a nice long visit to all our enemies, wherever they lurk. May they be thwarted, defeated and their legacy of dissolution and destruction be eradicated and expunged for all time. Have a great day!
And lastly, a quick shout-out and a huge thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.

Daily Tech News 1 April 2026
Top Story
- Anthropic's Claude Code developer tool leaked. (Dev.To)
Which... Well, so what? You can download it. Countless thousands of people have. I have. Anyone who wanted to put in the effort to pick it apart could have done so.
Anthropic left a debug option set it one release and that made all the source files visible, but that just made it easier.
The real brains - Anthropic's AI models like Sonnet and Opus - run safely on their servers and haven't leaked anywhere.
If you're interested though it's available on GitHub.
- If you want to run your own LLM and not just local tools that talk to a remote server somewhere Bonsai from PrismML might be of interest. (PrismML)
Because the 1.7 billion parameter model runs in 240MB of memory - yes, M, not G - and churns through 130 tokens per second on an iPhone 17.
Which uses noticeably less power than a rack full of high-end graphics cards.
Bonsai 8B uses 1.15GB of RAM.
While it doesn't lead in test scores, it's being tested against 16GB models, which require an entirely different class of hardware. It would be interesting to see how a 70 billion parameter model would perform on the same tests if it's possible to perform the same trick - quantising the model down from half-precision (16 bits) per parameter to 1 bit with error correction.

Quick Hits
More details on the super-profesh Secret Service agent who shot himself in the ass:
More:
Attorney General Pamela Bondi
@AGPamBondi Today @TheJusticeDept sued the state of Minnesota for allowing boys to play in girls' sports and use girls' locker rooms. This DOJ acknowledges biological reality and we refuse to let high school girls be subjected to this treatment. It's not only unfair -- it's deeply inappropriate and dangerous. Proud to partner with @SecKennedy and @EdSecMcMahon on this important litigation.
The vile Daily Mail published a straight-up hoax, claiming the bullets recovered from Charlie Kirk's body did not match those from Tyler Robinson's gun. This is a lie. The bullet broke into pieces. It could not be matched to any gun because it is shattered and deformed. (It also couldn't be excluded as a match to Tyler Robinson's gun -- due to the poor shape of the bullet, tests are "inconclusive," as they often are.) But the Daily Mail is thirsty for clicks, so they lied:
The Department of Justice announced a lawsuit Monday against Minnesota and the state's high school sports league for allowing boys to compete in girls' sports. According to the DOJ, the Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) and the Minnesota State High School League (MSHSL) have engaged "in sex-based discrimination by requiring girls to compete against boys in athletic competitions that are designated exclusively for girls and allowing boys to invade intimate spaces designated exclusively for girls." In doing so, MDE and MSHSL have openly defied Title IX, which prohibits sex-based discrimination in any education program or activity that receives federal funding, the DOJ said in a press release. "The Justice Department cannot ignore a state's brazen defiance of federal antidiscrimination law," said Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon of the DOJ's Civil Rights Division. "In service of radical gender ideology, Minnesota's actions violate Title IX and deny female athletes their hard-earned trophies, records, dignity, and safety." The lawsuit highlights the story of Marissa Rothenberger, a biological male who pitched for the girls' varsity softball team as a junior at Champlin Park High School. Rothenberger threw multiple shutouts, including a complete-game shutout in the Class 4A state championship game, leading the Rebels to the 2025 title. The performance prompted federal investigations into Minnesota's compliance with Title IX and drew criticism from female athletes who said they were displaced or put at a disadvantage.
Megan BashamI will no longer link to this outlet. If I have to quote one of their articles, I'll just say it's from the Daily Mail with no link. Ever wonder why Israel always has thousands of terrorists in jail that they have to release every other year because Hamas and Hezballah take a bunch of civilians hostage? Ever wonder why Israel just doesn't kill them? Well Israel is wondering about that too, and the left is -- get this -- outraged!
@megbasham 20h This is clickbait trash and completely discrediting to the @DailyMail. Spoke to a LEO who told me fragmentation that makes it impossible to get a match to ANY weapon happens all the time. Yet the Daily Mail is echoing Tyler Robinson's defense team nearly verbatim. They did NOT quote a single law-enforcement officer not connected to Robinson's defense who would've given their readers a better understanding of what's happening here. They're purely leaning into this because they know there are a bunch of rabid conspiracy theorists who will not take the time to understand this. Which makes the Daily Mail and its reporter scum in my book.

Supreme Court Rules That Free Speech Still Exists; Ketanji Brown Jackson Doesn't Understand
This should have been a 9-0 unanimous decision.
It has been the rule of the land since the founding of the Republic that the Constitution's stricture against passing "any law" limiting speech meant that no government, federal or state, could impose "viewpoint" restrictions on speech -- disfavoring or even criminalizing a specific view, argument, or belief. Now, the Court long recognized that governments may impose "time, place, and manner" restrictions, especially on public gatherings and marches. For example, you can permit a march from 1pm to 3pm, so that the march does not interfere with rush hour traffic. You can tell the marchers they cannot walk in front of active garage entrances. You can tell the marchers they must be orderly and cannot use bullhorns that boost noise above, say, 100 decibels. That kind of thing. But you cannot -- absolutely cannot -- pass a law or deny a permit to march based on your agreement with or disagreement with the speaker's speech. You can regulate speech as far as the time, place, and manner in which it is spoken, but you absolutely cannot regulate what that speech can say. This was the rule controlling government regulation of free speech for 250 years, completely agreed to by all Supreme Court judges. Yes, lefty judges would of course put their thumbs on the scale and claim that some limits on speech they don't like -- like protesting outside abortion clinics -- were fair restrictions regarding "place" rather than viewpoint-based restrictions on pro-lifers, but everyone agreed on the framework for analyzing these cases. Until today. Gentlemen, you asked for a radical incompetent. I give you K. B. J. The Court was nearly unanimous that Colorado cannot ban a therapist from counseling a patient to try to change his sexual orientation. Even "Wise Latina" Sotormayor joined the majority. Obama's Obamacare advisor, who cast a decisive vote on Obamacare, Elena Kagan joined the opinion. But DEI Justice KBJ cast another lonely dissent, essentially repudiating 250 years of jurisprudence on free speech and declaring that sometimes, if the government really really really doesn't like speech and that speech is DoublePlus UnGood and Conservative, it can in fact ban speech based on what viewpoint it advances.Ketanji Brown Jackson has now flipped completely on this question: In an earlier case, she argued that the state had zero power to ban transgender procedures for minors. The state just didn't have the power to intrude into medical advice and treatment, she proclaimed. Now she takes the exact opposite position -- the state has All the Power to outlaw whatever medical advice it dislikes -- based not on law, precedent, or logic, but based simply on her leftwing extremist political bias that whatever gays and transgenders want, they should get, period, the law be damned.
The Supreme Court ruled Tuesday that Colorado cannot enforce its so-called "conversion therapy" ban regarding conversations between therapists and minors, saying the law likely violates the First Amendment by allowing some viewpoints but not others. In an 8--1 decision, the high court said the law favors one viewpoint by allowing therapists to affirm a minor's gender identity or sexual orientation, but not help them to change it if they want to. The decision stemmed from a lawsuit brought by Kaley Chiles, a licensed Christian therapist, who argued her conversations with youth clients were a form of protected speech. The Colorado government had said the conversations amounted to professional conduct that the state was allowed to regulate. ... Justice Neil Gorsuch wrote the majority opinion, saying the question before the high court was a "narrow one" and that Chiles did not seek to toss out the Colorado law but rather consider whether it could apply to therapy that was strictly conversational. "The First Amendment stands as a shield against any effort to enforce orthodoxy in thought or speech in this country," Gorsuch wrote. "It reflects instead a judgment that every American possesses an inalienable right to think and speak freely, and a faith in the free marketplace of ideas as the best means for discovering truth. However well-intentioned, any law that suppresses speech based on viewpoint represents an 'egregious' assault on both of those commitments."
In the lone dissent, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson said the majority "plays with fire in this case" and that she feared "the people of this country will get burned."

Kristi Noem's Husband Is a Not-So-Secret Crossdresser Who Adorns Himself With Ridiculous Fake Breasts
So I was wondering: Why does Kristi Noem feel that she can have a very non-covert, practically overt affair with Corey Lewandowski? She refused to even deny it when asked about it at a congressional hearing.
I'm not being judgey, I'm asking: Why does she think that? Doesn't she worry about the husband finding out? The answer to the latter is "Nah, bruv." She does not worry about a jealous heterosexual husband, not at all. She might worry about her husband stealing her Wonderbras, though. And maybe this also explains why Trump moved so quickly to pack her off to Shield of the Americas Military School.These are the photos that allegedly show Kristi Noem's husband Bryon wearing comically oversized, lopsided breasts -- complete with fake protruding nipples -- to female members of an online fetish community. The Daily Mail obtained "hundreds" of messages purportedly sent between the former Secretary of Homeland Security's husband and three women who are involved in the so-called "bimbofication" fetish scene. The kinky community involves people injecting their busts with freakishly large amounts of saline in pursuit of a "Barbie-doll"-like appearance. The pictures show the South Dakota insurance mogul, who has three children with Noem, clad in pink hotpants and a skin-tight, flesh-colored crop-top stuffed with enormous balloons made to resemble massive cockeyed breasts. His face is clearly visible in several of the photos, including one in which his expression is so mundane it could be from a driver's license photo. In others he flashes a more flirty "kissy-face" pose in which he's pursing his lips. The outlet spoke with national security experts who said the existence of the scandalous photographs could have made his wife subject to potential blackmail threats. ... "They approach the person and say, if you work with us we won't expose this, and if you don't, we will. That's espionage 101." Kristi Noem was ousted from her role at DHS on March 5 after a pair of disastrous congressional hearings, including fumbling a question about whether she was having an affair with married top aide Corey Lewandowski.Noem claims the family has been "blindsided" by this. Press X to doubt. Her weird behavior suggests she's been dealing with this for years. See the article for the pictures. This pervert is wearing a shirt, but you can see the fake hooters and their misaligned nipples under the fabric of the shirt. I was going to post one but... eh. I'm not mad at you guys today so I won't do you like that. Piper's tweet has a snap if you must see it. If you don't want to see it: Imagine a seedier version of Hugh Laurie with giant foam-latex breasts with nipples that point the way to Bangor, Maine and Albuquerque, NM simultaneously.

Trump To Cowardly Countries Complaining They Can't Get Their Oil Through the Strait of Hormuz: If You Want Your Oil, Send In Your Navy and Take It Yourselves, Tough-Guys
And Trump is also shifting the Overton Window on the NATO alliance -- and I have shifted with him. An alliance is like a contract between nations; it either provides reciprocal advantage to both parties, or it's repudiated. I used to worry that Europe would be taken over by Russia with NATO. Now I don't care if it is or isn't, and anyway, Europe is choosing Soviet Communism on its own without Russia tanks compelling it to. And obviously, it is Islam conquering Europe, not Russia.
American Debunk
@AmericanDebunk
This post by Trump is pre-framing what's to come. Read along and you'll start to see it too. When Trump tells the UK to "go to the Strait and just TAKE IT," the surface read is that he's venting at allies who didn't show up. But the deeper move is priming the the public (and world) with a new mental frame: the Strait of Hormuz is not Iranian sovereign territory anymore. It's available real estate. It's takeable. Anyone with courage can have it. That's a massive Overton Window shift delivered, in a tweet, as an insult to the UK. A year ago "America controls the Strait of Hormuz" sounded like some twisted fantasy. Today Trump is telling Britain to go grab it themselves like it's a parking spot. In a few weeks, Trump has normalized the concept of Western control over the Strait so thoroughly that full US seizure now looks like the modest option compared to what he's suggesting allies do on their own. This is intentional. The persuasion mechanics here are priming plus pre-selling. Whatever the eventual deal includes (US Navy permanent presence, joint patrols, Iranian withdrawal from mining infrastructure) the public will accept it because Trump already told them the Strait is there for the taking. Your subconscious mind has already been primed to accept it. This "psychological baseline" is going to influence Trump-Iran negotiations. Best believe it. "The hard part is done" works the same way. He's managing public fatigue. It translates to "we won, relax, this is cleanup". This keeps approval from eroding while the Pakistan talks drag through April. Trump isn't describing reality. He's installing it. Say the Strait is takeable enough times and it becomes takeable in the public mind. It's been 10 years of Trump and he still leaves me in awe with his persuasion.

Providence Mayor Calls Mural Showing Face of Slaughtered Iryna Zarutska "Divisive," Wants It Taken Down
He wants the mural destroyed. He does not want to say her name.
The mayor of Rhode Island's capital city is calling for a mural reportedly backed by Elon Musk to honor Iryna Zarutska --the Ukrainian woman whose brutal murder while riding a North Carolina train prompted calls for harsher punishment for career criminals -- to be taken down. The mural, located on the exterior of The Dark Lady, an LGBTQ+ club in downtown Providence, remains incomplete, WJAR-TV reported. The office of Mayor Brett Smiley told the news outlet that he wants the artwork taken down. "The murder of the individual depicted in this mural was a devastating tragedy, but the misguided, isolating intent of those funding murals like the one across the county is divisive and does not represent Providence," Smiley said in a statement. He said he continues to "encourage our community to support local artists whose work brings us closer together rather than divide us."Did he call for the George Floyd murals to be obliterated as well? Of course not.
... Zarutska, a 23-year-old refugee who fled her country after the Russian invasion, was brutally stabbed to death in an unprovoked attack while riding the Lynx Blue Line light rail in Charlotte, NC, last year. The suspect, Decarlos Brown Jr., 34, is charged with violence against a railroad carrier and mass transportation system resulting in death, which is a capital offense under federal law. ... Zarutska's death prompted questions about soft on crime policies adopted by many Democratic-run cities. President Donald Trump spotlighted the killing during his State of the Union address last month. ... "Iryna was riding home on the train when a deranged monster, who had been arrested over a dozen times and was released through no-cash bail, stood up and viciously slashed a knife through her neck and body," Trump said. "She had escaped a brutal war only to be slain by a hardened criminal set free to kill in America," he added. "Ms. Zarutska, tonight I promise you we will secure justice for your magnificent daughter."It's pretty explicit that white lives don't matter to the left. "Reparations" include the right of "oppressed minorities" to beat and kill white people with little consequence. It's also clear that the Regime that murdered Iryna by letting this psychopath out of jail dozens of times will brook absolutely no criticism of their murderous policies. Iryna is not just a reminder that white lives matter too, askshually. It's a reminder that the psycho-left's policies cause butchery and rape. But the psycho-left will use any tool of oppression to halt any argument or simple fact that might undermine their headlong drive to inflict authoritarian Marxism with a nasty racist twist on the country.

Michigan Synagogue Attack Was "Hezballah-Inspired," Says FBI
They can finally determine a motive. When the Bureau is headed by a Trump appointee, at least.
The attack earlier this month on a synagogue in West Bloomfield, Michigan, was "a Hezbollah-inspired act of terrorism purposely targeting the Jewish community and the largest Jewish temple in Michigan," the FBI said in a news conference Monday. The assailant, Ayman Ghazali, a naturalized US citizen from Lebanon, rammed a pickup truck into the synagogue on March 12, as more than 100 children were attending school inside. ...Two of his brothers were Hezballah terror commanders. They were killed by Israel.
Had he lived, he would have been charged with providing material support to Hezbollah, the Iranian-backed terrorist group in Lebanon, said Jerome Gorgon, US attorney for the Eastern District of Michigan. Gorgon added Ghazali was inspired by Hezbollah propaganda to carry out the attack. "This man acted under Hezbollah's direction and control," Gorgon said. "He intended to kill others, not just himself."
... Ghazali began planning for the attack days earlier, the FBI said, with his plans intensifying on March 9. A review of Ghazali's online activity dating to January showed repeated searches for pro‑Hezbollah and Iranian news outlets, as well as videos related to gunfire and ammunition. Beginning March 9, the FBI said, he closely followed speeches and live coverage involving Hezbollah's secretary general, Naim Qassem, along with reporting about an Iranian fatwa -- a religious ruling concerning Islamic law -- calling for total jihad against the US military. He also researched Jewish cultural educational and religious centers throughout the Detroit metro area, viewed multiple pages of upcoming events at Temple Israel and searched specific terms and phrases such as "the largest gathering of Israelis in Michigan," "Orthodox synagogues" and "Israelis near me," Runyan said. ... An order of dozens of water containers arrived on the 11th -- the day before the attack -- and he immediately started filling them with gasoline, making four trips to gas stations so he would not arouse suspicion, Runyan said. He also bought two torch lighters, which authorities believe he used to set his truck on fire. On the day of the attack, Ghazali sent his sister, who authorities believe lives in Lebanon, numerous videos and messages "affirming his Hezbollah-inspired ideology," Runyan said. Ten minutes before he drove his truck into the synagogue, Ghazali sent his sister two videos in Arabic indicating he was at the largest gathering of Israelis in the state of Michigan, had booby-trapped his car and would forcibly enter and start shooting people, the FBI said. "God willing, I will kill as many of them as I possibly can," Ghazali recorded himself saying, according to Runyan.Happy Tuesday! I didn't read much over the weekend but I'm now "On the Doorstep" in The Hobbit. I'm sure many of you finished. Does anyone do this? When I read Hobbit/LOTR, I put on music and ambience from the movies. But I'm not sure it adds anything. I think it just distracts me. Update:
It was Netanyahu inspired terrorism. He consistently links Judaism and Zionism and it puts a target on the backs of Jews all over the world. The people in Michigan had nothing to do with the war crimes Israel is committing. Exactly. Who wants to take the FBI at their word on this one? I'm guessing the usual suspects. It absolutely doesn't excuse the violence, but I've also heard his family in Lebanon was killed in Israeli attacks. If we're going to be involved in this war, we're going to experience the effects of it. It turns out when you launch a poorly conceived attack on a foreign nation with zero regard for collateral damage, it leads to stuff like this. There is zero excuse for the violence he planned to commit, but killing innocents breeds terrorism and unfortunately the current administration is damn good at that. This isn't a terrorist linked attack. The FBI is bullshitiny to justify the invasion of Lebanon. Gotta justify the genocide and land grabPosted by: Intercepted Reddit Transmissions brought by the Intrepid AoS Liaison at March 31, 2026 12:42 PM (xQtaY)

The Morning Rant: Spain Is Lost
The answer for America is simple...close those bases, and spend the billions of dollars in some other countries that will be more appreciative of America and its effort to free the world from Iran's evil. And for the taxpaying citizens of America? Don't go to Spain. Don't buy Spanish products. It's simple. They don't support us, so why should we support them? Besides, it is a country that is rapidly descending into the evil of progressive atheism, in which the value of life and culture is measured by an amoral calculation more akin to Mao than to Ignatius of Loyola (whatever you might think of him). Here is a powerful bit of data that Spanish culture is gone... replaced by the same post-modern melange currently engulfing Canada, the UK, and a few other Western countries. Father loses legal fight to halt euthanasia of 25-year-old daughter in Spain
It's called psychiatric illness, and giving its sufferers agency over their own treatment and lives is, frankly, insane. But it illuminates the interest of the collective over the individual, and the total rejection of an objective morality that has been the backbone of the West, courtesy of religion, for 2,500 years. Spain has chosen its path, and we should respect that choice. But no amount of Serrano ham, Paella, and magnificent art should lure us to continue our support of this failed state. [France too is barring American use of its airspace, but that is a discussion for another time!] [Crossposted at CutJibNewsletter and X/Twitter].

Spanish Defense Minister Margarita Robles confirmed the move, saying Spain has denied both airspace access and the use of joint U.S.-Spanish bases for any operations tied to the Iran conflict. "This was made perfectly clear to the American military and forces from the very beginning," Robles said. "Neither the bases are authorized, nor, of course, is the use of Spanish airspace authorized for any actions related to the war in Iran." Spain already had refused to allow U.S. forces to use the strategically critical Rota and Morón bases in southern Spain, installations long viewed as key hubs for American military operations into Europe, Africa and the Middle East. The expansion of that restriction to Spanish airspace effectively cuts off another logistical pathway for U.S. operations and signals that Madrid is willing to directly limit U.S. military movement despite its NATO membership.
The answer for America is simple...close those bases, and spend the billions of dollars in some other countries that will be more appreciative of America and its effort to free the world from Iran's evil. And for the taxpaying citizens of America? Don't go to Spain. Don't buy Spanish products. It's simple. They don't support us, so why should we support them? Besides, it is a country that is rapidly descending into the evil of progressive atheism, in which the value of life and culture is measured by an amoral calculation more akin to Mao than to Ignatius of Loyola (whatever you might think of him). Here is a powerful bit of data that Spanish culture is gone... replaced by the same post-modern melange currently engulfing Canada, the UK, and a few other Western countries. Father loses legal fight to halt euthanasia of 25-year-old daughter in Spain
Noelia Castillo Ramos' case galvanized international attention after her father, Gerónimo Castillo, mounted a legal battle against the authorization of various Spanish courts for his daughter to receive euthanasia in 2023. Aided by Abogados Cristianos (Christian Lawyers), a conservative Catholic organization, Mr. Castillo exhausted all appeals to the Spanish courts. The father argued that his daughter wasn’t fully psychologically able to make a decision regarding euthanasia and that she needed better medical and psychiatric care. His legal battle was ultimately shut down by the European Court for Human Rights in Strasbourg, France, on March 10.

The Morning Report — 3/31/26
Of course The Land of Dis-Enchantment will not be teaching so much as brainwashing their children about the events of that day. No mentioning of Ashlii Babbitt or Roseanne Boyland and how they were murdered in cold blood by Nancy Pelosi's, Christopher Wray's and John Brennan's goons with badges and disguises. No Kings, but Red Guards disguised as Democrats abound. Unless and until Academia from pre-school through post-graduate is utterly seized and restored to some semblance of sanity. Meh, that requires the restoration of morality, ethics, sanity and american/western cultural values across our entire society. Did the Long March through the institutions bring us to our knees, and if so, is there a road back?
Have a great day!
And lastly, a quick shout-out and a huge thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.
Brian Stewart, the Chair of the Hernando County Democrat Party, was charged with simple battery following the incident in Spring Hill. He was booked Saturday afternoon and released two hours later after posting a $1,000 bond, according to the Hernando County Sheriff’s Office. . . A statement from the Hernando County Conservatives organization claims Stewart shoved a “permanently disabled” military veteran who “served our country with honor and distinction” and then struck him in the head with a megaphone.OF course that is but one example but that it was not just some random braindead AWFL or Soros rent-a-thug but a local Dem bigwig. Of course, what we witnessed over the weekend and indeed starting with the anti-war protests and civil rights riots of 60years ago right up until the present day has is roots in the classrooms and lecture halls of academia.
Members of America’s largest teachers’ union, the National Education Association (NEA), were back in training in February, this time for a confidential webinar entitled “Advocacy and Free Speech Rights for K-12 Educators.” The leaked slide deck, posted by the watchdog group Defending Education, reveals that the NEA is less focused on American students’ stagnant test scores than on training its members to become activists, while using misinterpretations of the First Amendment as a shield. The February session complements the union’s December 2025 in-person training on “Advancing LGBTQ+ Justice.” That event counseled attendees to “develop a toolset of tactics for dismantling systems of privilege and oppression.”
Students in New Mexico will learn more about the January 6 Capitol riot and climate change than the moon landing. New Mexico high school history guidelines contain over a dozen references to the January 6 riot while only mentioning the moon landing once. The guidelines, part of the New Mexico Instructional Scope for History, are largely focused on racial and gender grievances and encourage teachers to promote Democratic politicians and lament how the richest men in the United States today are “mostly white.”. . . “These state level documents expose a troubling pattern by education activists of pushing leftwing political and social biases into K-12 classrooms as established ‘facts,'” Staley told The Daily Wire. “Students and families deserve an education that values a politically neutral approach to weighing different sides of issues, not political indoctrination.”

- Bluesky announced a new AI tool named Attie to help inmates create their own social feeds. It did not go well. (Tech Crunch)
In three days Attie has accumulated 1500 followers - and been blocked by 125,000 users, which is to say all of them.
That's more blocks than even the ICE account, suggesting that while the inmates are clinically insane they are not entirely stupid.

Quote I "We believe our policies are consistent with the law and reflect our commitment to fairness, opportunity, and building the strongest possible teams," NFL executive vice president Jeff MillerI normally don't comment on the Quotes of The Day. Between this Miller guy and his gutless, spineless, testicle free boss Roger Goodell I can't stand the NFL and it can't go broke fast enough. I grew up close to Green Bay and have always been a Packers fan. But since 2020 I've given up on the league. The kneelers, the "Hands up" bullshit, politics entered the game. So I now spend my Sunday afternoons doing anything but watching football.
