Demonic influence or political folly? Democrats war for Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s return



Let’s review everything we know thus far about the Democrats’ new pet, Kilmar Abrego Garcia:

  • He entered this country illegally in 2011.
  • In 2019, ICE detained him based on suspected MS-13 gang affiliations.
  • In 2021, his wife filed a temporary domestic violence protective order against him after he gave her a black eye in a dispute.
  • During a traffic stop in 2022, he was suspected of human smuggling.
  • Ample photo and video evidence shows him proudly displaying symbols affiliated with MS-13.
  • El Salvador’s own president, Nayib Bukele, called Garcia a terrorist and said he would not release him in El Salvador.

And yet – Democrats across the country are fighting tooth and nail for Garcia’s return to the U.S. Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen (D) even traveled to El Salvador earlier this week on the taxpayer’s dime to speak with Garcia, whom he calls his “constituent.”

Steve Deace, who’s “never seen anything like this in [his] career,” says that at its roots, this war for Garcia’s return is not political; it’s spiritual.

Democrats are once again proving that the American people are at the bottom of their priority list. Not only is their fight to prevent the deportations of illegal immigrants ensuring violent crime, drug peddling, and human trafficking will continue to afflict the American people, but it’s also bucking the will of Americans.

Steve points to a recent CNN polling analysis that found that an increasing number of American citizens support mass deportation of illegal immigrants.

“Four separate polls found deportation support ranging from 55% from the New York Times poll to 64% in a Marquette poll,” says a recent Blaze News article.

“There's not any doubt where the American people are at on this,” says Steve, and yet the Democrat Party is essentially “[running] head first and naked and without a weapon into that tailwind.”

To champion and fight for the return of an illegal immigrant gang member when the majority of the country wants mass deportations of illegal immigrants goes against human nature, says Steve.

“No one does that naturally,” he explains. “Maybe one or two people are this dumb, but collectively, an entire political party is not.”

“What they're doing doesn't benefit them on any level at all; it just simply doesn't, and there's only one reason human beings don't act in self-interest, good or bad,” says Steve.

That reason is “supernatural forces.”

“Human beings will not act out of self-interest at this extent minus supernatural forces. You won't be a lonely nun in Calcutta minus the Holy Spirit, and you won't take on ... without any cover whatsoever all this level of darkness without demonic influence and oppression.”

“You are literally watching Romans 1 play out here,” he says.

Letitia James FREAKS OUT as her fraud investigation closes in



New York Attorney General Letitia James (D) appeared to lose her temper during a recent speaking event, when she began speaking about President Donald Trump — but her anger might be coming from somewhere deeper.

“My mission is clear! I’m focused, I’m prepared, I’m ready. I’ve been trained by the best. I went to Howard University that overturned legal segregation in this country,” James said loudly at a recent speaking event.

“I’m not afraid of no president. Donald Trump, we’re ready for you, we’re coming for you, we’re standing up for you, we’re fighting on, we’re not going down silent. Victory, my friends, is clear, it’s now, and I’m not waiting for years, I’m waiting two,” she continued, angrily.

“Come on, ladies, it’s up to us, we saved this democracy before, we’ll save it now, let’s go,” she added.


While James appeared focused on Trump, she’s also currently under investigation for mortgage fraud — which Sara Gonzales of “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered” believes could be the real reasoning behind her outburst.

“Everyone can already hear you, you don’t have to yell like that,” Gonzales says, adding, “It seems like something a guilty person would do, the over-the-top screaming.”

“Guilty people usually get very angry when they are accused of the thing that they did, and she seemed to be very rattled and angry about being accused of this,” she continues.

“And of course, also bringing it back to these bigger concepts,” Stu Burguiere chimes in, “like racism.”

“What’s really great about this story,” he continues, “is it’s almost exactly what they accused Donald Trump of doing. Donald Trump, he inflated his value, his real estate values allegedly to get better loan terms.”

“And this is a situation where she said she was living in another state, because if you buy a second house, and you say it’s a vacation house, or an investment house, usually your rate is going to be higher. So she lied and said, allegedly, that she was living in that house, when of course there’s absolutely no way she could have been. She was working in New York,” he explains.

“No one is above the law,” he adds.

(RFK Jr.'s new autism investigation causes a media meltdown



RFK Jr. has announced his desire to get to the root cause of the autism epidemic — and strangely enough, Americans left of center are up in arms, as they appear not to want the truth.

The health and human services secretary created a firestorm when he claimed that people with autism won’t be able to pay taxes or hold down a job, as well as calling it a “preventable disease” caused by a mysterious environmental toxin.

Of course, while there are many children with autism who grow up to be productive members of society, RFK Jr. was speaking about those whose lives are completely upended by their diagnosis.


“I think half of everyone I know is on the spectrum,” Blaze Media senior politics editor Christopher Bedford tells Jill Savage and Matthew Peterson on “Blaze News Tonight.” “They’re intelligent and interesting and bring a lot of different skills to this, but that’s not the only kind of autism.”

“There are other people who I know who have to take their kids out of different schools they are in to try and find them the resources they need. Levels of autism so bad that children are non-verbal, that they don’t walk correctly, that they will never communicate correctly, that they will have extreme difficulty ever holding down any kind of a job,” he continues.

Meanwhile, the mainstream media are blaming RFK for trying to cure autism, as they believe it’s just something that makes those afflicted unique.

“That’s insane,” Bedford says. “Our environment over the last 50 years and 20 years in particular have made the rates of autism absolutely skyrocket in this country.”

“If you care about this, and you care about your kids, you’d want to investigate,” he adds.

The fatherless epidemic taking over America



Appreciation for the nuclear family structure has been on the decline for a long time, as parents trade what once was the innate need to sacrifice for their children for their own fleeting, superficial desires.

This has created a culture of fatherlessness, specifically in minority communities — and Adam Coleman, author of “The Children We Left Behind,” knows from experience.

“I do think black fatherlessness issue is the canary in the coal mine for Americans. You know, the issue is very prominent amongst black Americans, more so today, and it’s because it’s culturally normal,” Coleman tells Sara Gonzales on “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered.”

Coleman grew up without a father, as did his wife, who grew up in Brooklyn. There was only one family in his wife’s neighborhood who had both parents in the home.


“So I do think that we’re dealing with a cultural aspect of it being normal that the father is optional,” he continues. “It’s that kind of mentality, but they ignore the part that this isn’t optimal. Just because you survive, that doesn’t mean that you’re thriving.”

In the black community, the percentage is high because the population is small. However, it’s not only confined to the black community.

“A lot of white Americans are dealing with much of the same issue, and so the number percentage-wise doesn’t seem all that big in comparison,” Coleman explains. “Most of the people who reach out to me, who share my story, don’t look like me.”

“While it is true there is a disproportionate amount of black Americans growing up in single-parent homes,” he continues, “I do think that narrative overshadows all the other kids, including white children, who are dealing with the same issue.”

Grieving mom obliterates MS-13-supporting Democrats at White House press briefing



Rachel Morin was a mother of five, but left behind her children when she was raped and killed by an undocumented migrant from El Salvador.

She was found near the MA & PA Trail in Harford County on August 6, 2023. Victor Martinez-Hernandez was found guilty of her murder on April 14 and had fled to the United States illegally after an arrest warrant was issued in El Salvador.

Patty Morin, the victim’s mother, took the stage as a special guest at a White House press briefing where Karoline Leavitt began by highlighting crimes committed by another illegal immigrant, Kilmar Garcia.


Not just an illegal immigrant but an MS-13 gang associate accused of violent crimes against his own wife, Garcia was deported by the Trump administration — while the Democrats have been fighting for his return.

But Morin is well aware of the danger these illegal immigrants pose to American citizens, and she bravely recounted the story of her own daughter's death to drive her point home.

“He attacked her. He dragged her 150 feet, blood gushing from her head. It left a 150-foot trail of her blood,” Morin said at the press conference. “He picked her up, he threw her against the wall of the tunnel, and he raped her. But before he did that, he stopped on that trail, and rocks still stained with her blood, he used them to hammer her head against those rocks.”

“She was so stoic,” Blaze Media senior politics editor Christopher Bedford tells Jill Savage and Matthew Peterson of “Blaze News Tonight.” “It was incredibly brave, and she answered on the way out the door the question that I was intending to ask.”

“She felt betrayed by those people, those politicians, who just don’t seem to give a damn in Maryland and in Washington and all around the country,” Bedford says. “When she left, the press room was silent. There wasn’t the usual hubbub, there wasn’t the yelling of questions.”

“There was just silence, and that alone was witness to the testimony that she gave,” he adds.

Whitlock: Karmelo Anthony PSYOP goes FULL OJ Simpson



As Jason Whitlock watches the fallout of Karmelo Anthony’s fatal stabbing of Austin Metcalf, he’s reminded of O.J. Simpson’s 1995 trial. It was one of the most racially charged trials in U.S. history, exposing and deepening racial divides between black and white Americans.

“Karmelo Anthony is about to be the new O.J. Simpson,” says Whitlock.

“Black people celebrated when O.J. got off, and I'm not 100% that O.J. was the actual killer, but I certainly wasn't celebrating when O.J. got off, because O.J. had something to do with that crime, and everybody knows it,” he continues. “We celebrated it — ‘we paid the white man back; O.J. got off’ — [we celebrated] that two white people were murdered,” and now “we're doing it again with Karmelo Anthony.”

This entire ordeal is “a psyop,” says Jason, and the people who are behind it “want to frustrate white people” and “promote a racial conflict.”

The recent stories about Karmelo Anthony’s family purchasing a $900K home in a gated community and an Escalade using the funds from the "Help Karmelo Official Fund” are likely false or stretched truths designed to “raise the temperature” and “trigger people,” he says.

“They're putting out this false information because a psyop is going on, and I'm not seeing community notes to shut down the psyop, to shut down the bad information. They want everyone riled up; they want everybody saying, ‘Man, you see black folks gave a half million dollars to Karmelo Anthony?’”

The truth, he says, is that a facet of the black community is rallying behind Karmelo, but “most black people don't know or don't really care.”

“But online we've certainly created the perception that we are all on board with Karmelo Anthony,” Jason sighs, theorizing that the supportive comments on Karmelo’s GiveSendGo fund are most likely AI generated.

White Americans, he says, need to recognize that this psyop is designed to run on white fury.

“I understand why white people are frustrated, but why would you adopt the same tactics — racial idolatry — as the people you allegedly oppose?” he asks. “They want people to go, ‘Yeah, we're going to peacefully protest in Frisco, Texas,’ and then they're going to have their agitators there.”

Just because Donald Trump won the election does not mean the race war between black and white Americans is over.

“The war is not over by any stretch. They're doubling down, and they have Karmelo Anthony; he's the new O.J. Simpson; he's the new George Floyd, and we're falling for the trap; we're falling for all the triggers,” Jason warns.

“What is crystal clear to anybody with a brain is that Karmelo Anthony did something murderous, immoral, and stupid, and the people that want to promote a racial conflict have clearly reached out to the family and said, ‘We got 30 pieces of silver, and we'll help you out as long as you allow us to use you in the manner that we need you to be used to spark this racial conflict,”’ he explains.

He wants everyone to understand that Karmelo Anthony and his family are “pawns on a chessboard being moved around by the globalists and the people that want this country to devolve into racial conflict.”

Rabid defenders of pit bulls are spiritually blind — and ignoring the tragic stats



The never-ending pit bull debate has been reignited online after an Ohio infant was tragically killed by one of her family’s three pit bulls — who spent its life as a beloved family pet.

“I will never understand why!!!” mother Mackenzie Copley wrote in a Facebook post, where she posted photos of her 7-month-old daughter cuddling with the family dogs. “I am so lost and broken. This was the same dog who was side by side with my baby every single day,” she added.

While heartbroken for the family, Allie Beth Stuckey of “Relatable” believes this situation could have been avoided.

“I don’t think that they should be legal,” she says. “I am tired of talking about these stories, where another baby or another toddler dies because a family allowed what they mistakenly call their nanny dog to lay down next to their child, to play with their child, and that child is mauled to death.”


“I am tired of us being a Romans 1 people, that we serve the creature rather than the creator, and so we have disordered affections and disordered priorities where we feel more of an inclination to defend a certain breed of dog than we do to defend human life,” she continues.

Stuckey believes it’s a “spiritual issue,” and those who defend the pit bulls never express sympathy for the child hurt or killed, because they’re suffering from “spiritual blindness.”

“No sympathy for that, just immediate, almost like a pit bull, rapidly defending this very, on average, aggressive breed,” she says. “Every time that you push the propaganda that these dogs are safe, that they’re OK around children, that they’re nanny dogs, someone is listening to that, and they are internalizing that lie.”

Pit bulls were originally bred for bull baiting in England, primarily between the 16th and 19th centuries. A popular blood sport at the time, bull baiting consisted of these dogs being set loose on a tethered bull, where the goal was to immobilize it by biting and holding its nose or face and not letting go — until the bull was dead.

“And you think your toddler can stand a chance against that? It can’t,” Stuckey says.

And it’s not just the history of the animal that’s concerning. It's the undeniable stat of which breed is reported to be the most likely to attack.

According to Dogsbite.com, from 2010 to October 2023, of the 478 fatal dog bites in the United States, 196 came from pit bulls — which is 60%.

“Despite making up a very small part of the dog population, I think it’s like 6% of the dog population they account for,” Stuckey says. Dogsbite.com also reports that pit bulls are 2.5 times more likely to bite in multiple anatomical locations than other breeds.

Pit bull terriers are 48% more likely to attack without provocation than other breeds, and their attacks have higher morbidity rates, higher hospital charges, and a higher risk of death than attacks by other breeds.

“Honestly, I could have a section in my book ‘Toxic Empathy’ about pit bull apologists. It’s like the same thing. It is showing more empathy for a dog than it is for the victims of their attacks. And toxic empathy, it blinds you to reality and morality,” Stuckey says, adding, “That is certainly the case when it comes to pit bulls.”

RFK Jr.’s big announcement on autism rates — and why the scientific community doesn't want the truth



Autism rates have skyrocketed in the past couple of decades — and to the dismay of those who profit from it, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has made it clear that he’s intent on figuring out why.

In an announcement this week, RFK Jr. brought a study to light that found that the cost of treating autism in the United States by 2035 will be $1 trillion.

“This is added to already astronomical health care costs. And then there is individual injury,” RFK said. “This is a preventable disease. We know it’s an environmental exposure. It has to be. Genes do not cause epidemics. They can provide a vulnerability.”


RFK also noted that “the amount of money and resources put into studying genetic causes, which is a dead end, has been historically 10 to 20 times the amount spent by the NIH and other agencies to study environmental factors.”

“That’s where we’re going to find the answer,” he concluded.

Liz Wheeler of “The Liz Wheeler Show” is thrilled to hear it.

“Even the scientific community is so captured by autism being a profitable business that they are in a sense willing to waste money on studying your genetic predisposition to this and ignoring the environmental factors, because they don’t want to know the answer,” she says.

“They don’t want to know if it’s the food. They don’t want to know if it’s the shots. They don’t want to know if it’s the chemicals that we put on our food. They don’t want to know if it’s fertilizers and weed killers and GMO and whatever else, stuff in our water, fluoride in our water. They don’t want to know any of that,” she continues.

“The money to study the root cause was never an honest, authentic, investigation, because they don’t want to know the answer,” she adds.

Forced grins and old tensions: Hailey Van Lith reunites with Angel Reese in Chicago



On Monday, April 14, the WNBA held its 2025 draft in New York City. TCU guard Hailey Van Lith was selected by the Chicago Sky with the No. 11 overall pick in the first round, which means she’ll be reuniting with her old LSU teammate Angel Reese.

In a post-draft interview, Van Lith was told that she was walking into “some good energy” in Chicago. In response, she seemed to force a grin and replied, “Oh, I love that energy.”

Jason Whitlock says there’s no chance she actually loves the kind of energy Angel Reese brings to a team.

Shortly after the draft, Reese posted a message on X that seemed to confirm the suspected tension between her and Van Lith:

— (@)

“Fearless” guest Jay Skapinac says, “I think if I'm reading in between the lines, these two did not enjoy playing with each other the first time.”

Jason agrees: “I think she's already experienced what it's like to play with Angel Reese, who is a narcissist and selfish, and my understanding is a nightmare for all teammates to deal with.”

On top of making enemies on the court, Reese is also no stranger to making enemies off it with her “whining about equal pay” and complaining that “she’s underpaid.”

“She's only making $70,000 to jack up brick layups and airball layups somehow in games that no one wants to watch. ‘Oh poor me, I’m only making $70,000,’ not mentioning the additional couple million she's making in sponsorship and additional revenues allotted to her from playing in these games,” Skap mocks.

Clearly, Reese isn’t hurting that bad financially because she recently posted about buying a house. Her announcement was delivered in typical Angel Reese fashion.

— (@)

“She's been to two universities — Maryland and LSU. You would think she would have learned something and know how to communicate proper English, but she's leaning into her Jasmine Crockett,” sighs Jason.

Speaking tongues or nonsense? Rebutting bad TikTok theology



Speaking in tongues is a spiritual act and a gift that is imparted upon believers by the Holy Spirit — and videos of believers speaking in tongues are making the rounds on TikTok.

However, after seeing one video of a young woman recording herself praying in tongues, Allie Beth Stuckey of “Relatable” isn’t convinced that sharing this gift publicly, and online, is the biblical move.

“I think how this is being done on social media is not biblical at all and is actually very dangerous spiritually for those that are viewing it,” Stuckey explains. “This is just not powered by the Holy Spirit, because the Holy Spirit is always going to be in agreement with God’s word.”

“Father, Son, Holy Spirit. All equal persons in the Trinity. They never contradict each other, they never disagree, the entirety of the Bible is God’s infallible, inherent word,” she continues, noting that public prayer for the sake of attention on social media does contradict God’s word.


Not only does Stuckey believe it’s not biblical, but she isn’t sure she buys it as real.

“My own personal observation is that that doesn’t actually sound like a language. That sounds like gibberish said in a rhythmic manner,” Stuckey says. “While I don’t know the intentions of her heart, it does seem to me that this is a performance that is posted on Instagram in order to maybe get likes, or maybe it is for attention, maybe it’s not for those things.”

“Maybe she believes that she is actually showing other people how to pray, or encouraging other people, and yet what she is doing just doesn’t correspond with the biblical directives that we are given,” she continues.

“We should all be able to watch a video like this and agree that filming yourself and posting it for the world to see doesn’t match what Jesus says in Matthew 6:5-6,” she adds.

Matthew 6:5-6 reads: “When you pray you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.”

“It seems to me that the point, if we look at the context of what Jesus is saying, and to whom he’s speaking,” Stuckey says, “his point is that prayer should not be a performance for others. It isn’t something that we do to prove ourselves, to prove ourselves holy, or to get likes, or to get affirmation.”
