Federal judge tries to protect USAID from being dismantled by DOGE



Activist judges are ramping up their attacks on the Trump administration, as Maryland District Judge Theodore Chuang is attempting to keep Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency from cutting wasteful spending in USAID.

Chuang has ordered the Trump administration to stop dismantling USAID, claiming the effort to shut it down likely violates the Constitution. He went on to say that the actions harm not only the plaintiffs but also the public interest because they “deprive the public’s elected representatives in Congress of their congressional authority to decide whether, when, and how to close down the agency created by Congress.”

Chuang also claimed that “the court finds the defendants' actions taken to shut down USAID on an accelerated basis, including its apparent decision to permanently close USAID headquarters without the approval of a duly appointed USAID officer, likely violated the U.S. Constitution in multiple ways.”


“This is just so crazy to me,” Sara Gonzales of “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered” comments. “The lengths that these Obama-appointed judges, in most cases they are Obama-appointed, will go to try to prevent President Trump and Elon, who they call the ‘first buddy,’ which I think is so cute, from literally helping the American taxpayers.”

“I would say that's 100% in the public interest, and they don’t want it to happen,” she adds.

BlazeTV contributor Jaco Booyens couldn’t agree more — but thinks it's a good thing people like Chuang are making their case.

“They are showing you who to get rid of. It’s as simple as that. I want more of them to come out with it, I want more of them to be activists and be vocal about it, and they need to be fired or replaced or whatever it takes to get them out. It’s as simple as that,” Booyens says.

Don Lemon SLAMS black MAGA supporters: 'Can't be rational'



As Don Lemon fades into obscurity, he can’t help but make a few ridiculous comments on his way out. Most recently, it was in the form of shocking claims on Bill Maher’s podcast about black Trump supporters.

“Not all black Republicans, but when I see a black MAGA person who is carrying Donald Trump’s water and they know that he’s lying, it is the shortest line to the front,” Lemon told Maher on his podcast.

“If you become a black MAGA person, it’s like, ‘Whoa, let’s book this person, let’s put him on television,’” Lemon continued.


“So you don’t think you can be a sincere black MAGA person?” Maher asked.

“I don’t think that you can be a rational MAGA, be black and be a rational MAGA person. I think you can be black and be a Republican,” Lemon responded.

“I think they would find that very insulting,” Maher replied.

“Well, I mean, the truth is often insulting,” Lemon said.

Jason Whitlock and Shemeka Michelle of “Fearless” wouldn’t expect any less from Lemon, noting that it's because he believes there was no time that America was "great" in the past.

"He's arguing like, 'Hey, how can you black people be MAGA, make America great again, because you're now saying that there was some time in the past when America was great.' And Don Lemon completely rejects that and thinks that we should all think that."

"Because if we go back, there was a time when same-sex marriage was illegal, and he's a gay person," he adds.

JFK files: What do these NEW documents reveal?



On Tuesday, March 18, the National Archives released over 80,000 pages of previously classified documents related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

What does this avalanche of new information reveal?

Glenn Beck and his chief researcher and security expert, Jason Buttrill, dig into what’s been revealed so far.

1. CIA memo / Gary Underhill

A CIA memo marked secret that’s dated July 19, 1967 included an excerpt from a June 1967 Ramparts magazine article, in which the story of Gary Underhill, a military intelligence veteran and CIA contractor, was told through the lens of his friend and confidant, who said that Underhill arrived at her place of residence in New Jersey shortly after Kennedy’s assassination. He was clearly “agitated” and blamed the president’s death on a CIA cabal.

He also allegedly indicated that he feared for his life. Six months later, Underhill was found dead in his apartment from a gunshot wound to the head. His death was ruled a suicide.

Glenn notes that while the story about Underhill has long been known, the CIA’s explicit documentation of the Ramparts article is news.

2. Oswald was a “poor shot.”

“The KGB watched Oswald closely while he was in the USSR, but files indicated that Oswald was a poor shot when he tried target practice in the Soviet Union,” says Glenn.

3. Letter about Oswald’s alleged plotting

“Another detail released was a letter sent by a man in 1978. He was a Soviet, and he made this comment to the British embassy. He claimed that he was detained in London on July 18, 1963, and questioned by authorities. He said that he told them about Lee Harvey Oswald, saying he planned to kill the president. He added that he warned American Vice Consul Tom Blackshire of the plans of Oswald, who was trying to defect to Russia,” Glenn reads, adding that this points to government incompetence.

“Right now, there is no ‘who’; there is no ‘okay, this is the person who pulled the trigger,”’ says Buttrill. “There's no deflection from the official Warren Commission report so far.”

The information that has been sifted through thus far certainly “[provides] more context,” though.

Is Trump's 'strategic Bitcoin reserve' a good idea? Crypto expert explains



President Donald Trump is making good on his campaign promise to turn the United States into the crypto capital of the planet by going all in on cryptocurrency in his second term.

Crypto expert and Ten31 managing partner Marty Bent is thrilled with Trump’s move — particularly with the strategic Bitcoin reserve.

“I think one thing that I’m looking forward to is that getting enshrined into law. Right now, we have the executive order, and as we’ve seen with executive orders from administration to administration, they can be rendered moot if the other side of the aisle gets into office in 2028,” Bent tells Jill Savage and Matthew Peterson of “Blaze News Tonight.”


“So enshrining the strategic Bitcoin reserve into law is my number one priority,” he continues. “And I think the way it’s laid out in the Lummis bill is great for two reasons.”

One of those reasons, Bent says, is that Bitcoin is described in the bill as “an asset worth holding and we’re going to try to accumulate as much as possible in an attempt to defease the national debt.”

“And just as importantly, but not really talked about as much, is the right to self-custody,” he says.

“So I think those two things, accumulating Bitcoin with the intent of defeasing the national debt, which has gotten out of control, and enshrining the rights of individuals to hold and send Bitcoin without having to use a centralized third party, would be massive for the country,” he adds.

However, under the Biden administration, Bent explains that “there were worries that laws were going to be passed that would make it so you would have to use a centralized third party to access Bitcoin.”

Which makes it more important that the Trump administration focuses on enshrining the right to self custody into law.

“That would be incredible,” he says.

CENSORSHIP ALERT: Is Texas about to BAN political memes?



In an Orwellian move by former Speaker of the Texas House Rep. Dade Phelan (R), a bill has been filed that would criminalize political expression in Texas.

House Bill 366 would make it a crime to distribute altered media, including political memes, without a government-approved disclaimer. Violators of the proposed bill could face up to a year in jail for a political meme.

“Wait, I thought we wanted less government here in the state of Texas?” Sara Gonzales asks on “Come and Take It.” “I feel personally attacked. I’m not going to lie, I feel like this was written because Dade Phelan wants me in jail.”


The bill specifically targets political advertising that features an image, audio recording, or video recording of an office holder's or candidate's appearance, speech, or conduct that did not occur in reality.

This includes media altered using generative artificial intelligence technology.

“So like you can use AI to make any sort of memes, any sort of pictures, as ridiculous as they may be,” Gonzales says. “It doesn’t say, ‘Hey, if this is satire, you get a pass.’ This doesn’t say, ‘Hey, if this is so ridiculously absurd that any reasonable person would know that it’s clearly satire, that it is clearly made up, that it is clearly photoshopped’ — it doesn’t give a pass for any of that.”

Representative Phelan said in response to criticism, “I’m not coming for your memes. If you like your memes, you can keep your memes. This has nothing to do with X or Facebook or anything on social media.”

But Gonzales isn’t buying it.

“It’s just that the TEC general counsel James Tinley blatantly said that social media posts would be covered under this communist China-style law,” she says, noting that Phelan’s response was a play on something Barack Obama once said.

“‘If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor, if you like your health care, you can keep your health care,’” Gonzales says. “So obviously, a throwback to that line. It’s just cute because in the same way that Obama was lying when he said that, Dade Phelan is also lying when he says, ‘If you like your memes, you can keep your memes.’”

“So the irony is not lost on me,” she adds.

Sweet Karoline: Press secretary SLAMS French radical for suggesting Lady Liberty be returned



On March 16 at a rally in Paris, radical leftist French politician Raphaël Glucksmann took aim at President Trump when he suggested that our Statue of Liberty be returned to France since America no longer stands for freedom.

“We’re going to say to the Americans who have chosen to side with the tyrants, to the Americans who fired researchers for demanding scientific freedom: ‘Give us back the Statue of Liberty.’ We gave it to you as a gift, but apparently you despise it. So it will be just fine here at home,” he said to a crowd of 1,500.

Back at home, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt was asked during a press conference by Fox News’ Peter Doocy about Glucksmann’s comments, and her response was pure gold.

Pat Gray of “Pat Gray Unleashed” plays the clip of her epic comeback.

When Doocy asked if President Trump was planning to send Lady Liberty back to France, Leavitt retorted, “Absolutely not, and my advice to that unnamed, low-level French politician would be to remind them that it’s only because of the United States of America that the French are not speaking German right now.”

In response to Leavitt’s spitfire comeback, Pat plays the sound of angels singing.

“Karoline Leavitt, you rock!” he exclaims, adding that it’s “so nice to have curly out of our hair” — a jab at Biden’s White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, whose bald-faced lies drove Pat insane every single day of her tenure.

Leavitt, he says, has been on a roll since day one.

He points to her other recent comeback, during which she put CNN’s Kaitlin Collins in her place on the subject of Biden’s autopen scandal.

When Collins asked a question that seemed to suggest that President Trump didn’t have the authority to void Biden’s pardons and that there was a lack of proof that an autopen was used to sign the pardons, Leavitt said the following.

“The president was begging the question that I think a lot of journalists in this room should be asking about whether or not the former president of the United States, who I think we can all finally agree was cognitively impaired … even [knew] about these pardons. Was his legal signature used without his consent or knowledge?” she said.

“And that's not just the president or me raising those questions, Kaitlin. According to the New York Post, there are Biden officials from the previous White House who raised those questions and wondered if the president was even consulted about his legally binding signature being signed onto documents, and so I think it's a question that everybody in this room should be looking into, because certainly that would propose perhaps criminal or illegal behavior if staff members were signing the president of the United States’ autograph without his consent,” she added.

Draymond Green weighs in on LeBron James vs. Stephen A. Smith feud: 'That's a**-backwards'



The beef between LeBron James and Stephen A. Smith just got more complicated. Draymond Green, Golden State Warriors power forward and James’ ride-or-die, has entered the chat.

Here’s a recap for those who missed it: On March 6, James confronted Smith courtside during the Lakers’ matchup against the Knicks. Enraged by Smith’s previous comments that Bronny was pushed prematurely into the NBA by his father, James, according to Smith’s recounting the following day on “The Stephen A. Smith Show," yelled “stop f**king with my son!” Smith called the public confrontation “weak” and “bulls**t.”

Last Saturday on “The Draymond Green Show,” Green involved himself in the feud, obviously taking LeBron’s side.

“You go on national TV calling out this African-American, this black father, who's raised another successful black young man, and you go on TV calling him out as a father because his son plays in the NBA? That's a**-backwards,” he told Baron Davis.

Jason Whitlock weighs in on this latest flare-up in the scandal.

“I've never seen a love affair quite like Draymond Green's affinity for LeBron James,” he tells "Fearless" contributor Steve Kim. “We all know that Draymond Green would love to have LeBron James' baby.”

“[Smith] gave an opinion that, by the way, most people agree with,” adds Steve, noting that “Stephen A. Smith’s job, whether we like his opinions or not, is to give his opinion.”

The fact that Smith is doing his job and catching so much flak for it has become “really unfair” to him, Steve argues.

Jason agrees that it’s unfair to Smith, but he also speculates that some of this feuding is “manufactured.”

Even so, he condemns Green’s comments as toxic — specifically the emphasis on LeBron being a black father, “as if there's some special level of treatment that Stephen A. owes LeBron James because of the color of his skin.”

Whitlock can’t understand why having “more melanin in your skin” means “you're not supposed to say certain things about people that share some level of your melanin.”

“For this to be normalized and sent out to young people that hey, there's a special set of rules for black people that they have to adhere to or they're outside the norm … I just can't believe that's where we are as a society,” he says. “LeBron James is a billionaire — a billionaire. He needs a special level of treatment” because of slavery and Jim Crow laws that ended decades ago?

Steve agrees and brings up a Thomas Sowell quote that captures the double standard Green is promoting: “When people get used to preferential treatment, equal treatment seems like discrimination."

“A marvelous statement,” says Jason.

8 MILES of Amazon rainforest DESTROYED so elites can attend 2025 climate summit



Every year a group of global elites gather at the COP30 United Nations Climate Change Conference to discuss the impending doom our world faces if drastic measures aren’t taken to address the climate crisis. And every year, the normies scream hypocrisy because these elites fly to their exclusive summit in their private jets, while condemning commercial airlines as a climate sin. “Carbon footprints” don’t apply if you’re rich and powerful, apparently.

This year, however, their hypocrisy doubled when it was discovered that eight miles of rainforest in Brazil is being cleared to build a four-lane highway called Avenida Liberdade (Liberty Avenue) in time for the summit, which will take place in November 2025 in Belém, Brazil, a city smack in the middle of the country’s Amazon region.

Tens of thousands of acres of trees have already been cut down following the greenlighting of the project, which has been stalled for over a decade by environmentalists. That is, until more important “environmentalists” needed a road.

It’s almost humorous when you think about it.

Stu Burguiere, BlazeTV host of “Stu Does America,” certainly thinks so, which is why he brought comedian and BlazeTV host of “Normal World” Dave Landau onto the show to discuss the incredibly ironic situation.

“As you know, our greatest existential threat [is global warming]. The only way to solve it is with, you know, electric cars and solar panels, unless Elon Musk makes them because then they're evil,” says Stu.

“We also know the only way to stop it is these big climate summits they have around the world where all the people who say climate change is bad fly into a city … and then they all talk to each other because it's not obviously possible to talk to each other across long, large expanses,” he continues, displaying an image of the recent forest clearing.

“They're like, ‘I've never seen that [animal] before,’ and they're like, ‘yeah, it's the last one of them; anyway, shoot it, we have to lay some road,’” Dave jokes.

“I mean, in some ways, it helps their cause, right? Because then they could say … ‘just since we arrived, there's been three species that have gone extinct,'” laughs Stu.

“It's so hypocritical, and it's always on such a funny level,” says Dave.

The future of the Republican Party: MAHA, tech bros, and young trads



Trump may have won the presidency, but he’s only the president until 2028. After that, the Republican Party must figure out how to keep the MAGA momentum going.

Matthew Peterson of “Blaze News Tonight” believes that the ideologically different types of Americans who have banded together behind Trump are the key.

“What’s going to happen over the next few years is you’re going to see tensions arise, health tensions, between different parts of this new coalition on the right,” he says.

“I mean, just think about the voters. Some people are sort of Joe Rogan listeners, not very political per se, but they are against the wokeness. They don’t like what’s going on there. You have the tech bros, who are about excellence and merit and are very angry about Elon not being able to go to Mars if we keep DEI.”


“You see the classic on the right, the religious conservatives and the rise of young trads who are very pro-Trump. You see also the MAHA moms,” he continues, “people talking about all these chemicals.”

“This is a broad and varied coalition, and this is also what winning looks like,” he adds.

However, as Peterson said, this will create debates within the party.

“For instance, even now in the HHS, when it comes to health and administration, you have some people who are filling appointments who are more on the tech bro side,” Peterson explains.

“And you also have people who are full MAHA, very much about moving against big corporate and a lot of the poisons and questioning a lot of the scientific research in the past, which was funded by big corporations,” he continues.

“Now, those two sides won’t always agree. I like them both; they both have great qualities; and if they’re debating things internally, that’s good, that’s healthy, that’s what we want. And so it’s not going to be just one big, happy party moving forward.”

“In order to build a new coalition of the future, we’re going to have a lot of exciting debates amongst ourselves about where this should go, and again, that is a sign of winning,” he adds.

‘Trans troll’ Josh Seiter CONFRONTED about Scott Presler and death hoax



Former "Bachelorette" star Josh Seiter made waves when he came out to the world as transgender — only to reveal it was an elaborate troll all along.

But Seiter is no stranger to trolling the masses, as the social media star also posted on his own social media account that he had passed away when he was very much alive.

“I know it’s very confusing, because people thought I was a woman, then I was a man, and then they thought I was dead, but I’m alive, and I’m actually very sorry for all the hurt that I may have caused people that truly thought that I was gone,” Seiter tells Alex Stein on “Prime Time with Alex Stein.”


“I had been doxxed in November by the trans cult, and because of that I was being harassed. I was getting thousands of messages and calls on my phone, and people were showing up at my house,” he explains, “It got really bad, and so me and my team felt the only way to just get it to stop was to make this announcement, let things cool off, and then a few weeks later I could kind of come back to social media.”

However, a trans hoax and a death hoax weren't enough for Seiter, as the professional prankster also pulled a stunt pretending to come out as gay with Scott Presler.

“We got to talking, and after a while we decided, hey, it would be really funny if we did another troll, did it together, and we pretended like we were dating and we posted a bunch of pics together holding hands, shirtless in bed, working out,” Seiter tells Stein, noting that Presler was flirtatious with him despite being straight himself.

“Looking back now, hindsight’s 2020. I’m starting to think he had ulterior motives, because it didn’t turn out that way. So I confirmed with him like three or four times, I’m like, ‘So you’re down to make content for this troll,’ and he’s like ‘Absolutely, we’ll get six months' worth in three days,’” Seiter explains.

“He knew I was straight, so I wasn’t worried about anything. So I got there, and we really weren’t taking that many pictures. I was more or less just at the booth, and then we would talk in the hotel room or whatever,” he continues.

“So we ended up posting one of the pictures that went viral and everyone was reposting it. Nick Fuentes, Stu Peters, and we were getting a lot of hate, which was the whole point of the troll,” he adds.

But Presler wasn’t as thrilled with the publicity as Seiter was.

“I thought, ‘Hey, that’s the whole purpose. We’re here to rile people up, we’re here to troll people, this is what it’s all about,’ and Scott freaked out,” he says.
