The Latest
The Most Serious Crisis in American History?!
America has endured some dark days.
The Civil War. Pearl Harbor. 9/11.
According to Democrat strategist and apparent racist James Carville
<[link removed]>, none of those
bloodbaths compare to the dark force engulfing our nation today: the Trump
presidency.
“I think this is the most serious crisis that this country has ever faced,”
the rainbow shirt-wearing, crooked hat-donning Carville said with a straight
face on Thursday. “I think the entire idea of the United States is in jeopardy.
I really do. I think it’s fundamentally that profound a problem.”
First of all, America is not an idea. It’s a place. Secondly, having an
orange president who is mean to the press isnot as much of a crisis as droves
of states seceding from the Union or Al-Qaeda flying Boeing 767s into America’s
tallest skyscrapers. It's just not. See a therapist, James.

This Again? Democrats Revive “Weird” Attack
Common sense suggests a political party that lost the House, the Senate, the
White House, andevery Electoral College swing state would abandon the messaging
that fueled those defeats.
Democrats are taking a different approach, mind-numbingly doubling down on
the exact rhetoric they embraced during last year’s ultimately humiliating
election season. Representative Sarah McBride provided the latest example on
Thursday, adoptingTim Walz’s failed “weird” attack
<[link removed]> by labeling Republicans
“weird and bizarre” in the wake ofhis committee-room spat with Congressman
Keith Self <[link removed]>.
It’s interesting that McBride is the one levying the “weird” attack. Like
there’s nothingweird about (they/them).

Illinois Embraces Discrimination. Will Trump Defund Them Next?
Democrat-run states know Donald Trump isn’t afraid to pull their federal
funding, but they continue defying him anyway.
Illinois is a great example. The state’s Board of Higher Education runs a
graduate student scholarship program <[link removed]>
that explicitly excludes white applicants, instead exclusively providing aid to
"members of traditionally underrepresented minority groups" like “African
American, Hispanic American, Native American, Asian American, Alaskan Native,
and Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander.”
Does that sound discriminatory to you? Wasn’t the whole point of the civil
rights movement to treat people based on the content of their character, not
the color of their skin?
"This isn’t a hard one," law professor Gail Heriot said. "The program was
illegal and unconstitutional since its inception."
Don’t be surprised if the Trump administration yanks Illinois’s funding if it
refuses to adjust. <[link removed]>

PIVOT: President Says "Nobody Is Expelling Any Palestinians" from Gaza
Donald Trump modified perhaps his most controversial Middle East proposal on
Thursday, insisting to reporters that “Nobody is expelling any Palestinians”
from Gaza regardless of how badly Benjamin Netanyahu longs to ethnically
cleanse the region.
The statement is a complete 180 from the president’s previous pledges. In
February, he announced the United States would “take over” the Gaza Strip and
"permanently" relocate the roughly two million Palestinians living there.
Hamas spokesperson Hazem Qassem reacted positively to the change, saying the
new idea is “welcomed” and calling “for this position to be reinforced by
obligating the Israeli occupation to implement all the terms of the ceasefire
agreements.”
Netanyahu described the previous forced relocation plan as a "revolutionary,
creative vision," and it is not clear what he thinks of Trump’s pivot. This
story and the White House negotiating directly with Hamas without seeking
permission from Israel suggest there may be cracks in the leaders’ relationship.

Even After Dropping Out, Biden Had to Make the Election About Himself
Joe Biden reportedly ordered Kamala Harris to create “no daylight” between his
agenda and her positions ahead of her debate against Donald Trump, insisting
his vice president link herself to his disastrous record and doom her chances
of winning the Oval Office.
“He would say publicly that Harris should do what she must to win,” an
excerpt from a new 2024 election exposé reads. But in private, the commander in
chief’s inner control freak narcissist came out. “Let there be no daylight
between us,” he scolded Harris. That strategy fueled her demise.
In a way, the Make America Great Again movement owes the 46th president a
thank you. Had it not been for his remarkable incompetence, Donald Trump may
never have regained the White House.
As Barack Obama once said, "Don't underestimate Joe Biden's ability to f**k
things up."Read more.

Liberals Have a New Enemy: Kamala Harris’s Chairs
The same book that unearths the Democrats’ “no daylight” strategy reports that
the Harris campaign spent weeks obsessing over the height of their candidate’s
chairs.
According to a pre-released excerpt, the then-vice president appearing
considerably smaller than Tim Walz
<[link removed]> during their first joint
interview led aides to worry that the imagery would reinforce criticism that
she was “incapable, or afraid of answering tough questions on her own.” The
campaign implemented strict rules on what chairs she would use from that point
forward.
“For the rest of the campaign, her team required that she be provided a chair
that met certain specifications: ‘Leg height no less than 15 inches; floor to
top of seat height no less than 18.9 inches; arms on chairs may not be very
high, arms must fall at a natural height; chairs must be firm,'” the book
states.
We hate to be the bearer of bad news, Democrats, but Harris’s chairs did not
make voters think she was “incapable, or afraid of answering tough questions on
her own.” She did that on her own.Read more.

DEMOCRAT DISARRAY: Liberal Senator “Heard Screaming” at Colleagues
Democrat leadership constantly claims their party is as united as ever, but
that seems to be nowhere near the truth. It is really a hot and unruly mess.
Kirsten Gillibrand just proved it. Capitol Hill press heard the New York
senator raging at her fellow liberal lawmakers during a private lunch on
Thursday, seething over their discombobulated approach to a potential
government shutdown.
"They’ve been debating what to do, and there’s been people who feel strongly
on both sides," a Democrat source reportedly said.
What better way for grown adults to settle a dispute than screaming at each
other? Read more.

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: TSA Finds Live Turtle in Man’s Pants
Transportation Security Administration agents found a live turtle concealed in
a traveler’s pants last week, discovering the shelled reptile after a body
scanner first detected its presence.
An official patted the anonymous man down after the siren sounded and quickly
determined he had something hidden around his groin area. When questioned
further, the searchee stunned his audience by reaching into his trousers and
yanking out the turtle, just about five inches long. TSA confiscated the
terrapin, and the man missed his flight. It is not clear why it was in his
pants.
Good thing that snapper didn’t spot a worm. Read more.

Commentary
Where’s the Evidence?
The Trump administration insists that Mahmoud Khalil’s arrest is not about his
speech.It’s about action.
“This is not about free speech,” Marco Rubio said on Wednesday. “This is about
people that don’t have a right to be in the United States to begin with. No one
has a right to a student visa. No one has a right to a green card, by the way.”
The second part of his statement is inarguably true. Of course the White House
has the right to deport Khalil. His green card status exists at the pleasure of
the government. It can remove him if it wants.
Next, the question becomes “why?” If speech isn’t the motivator, then why is
the administration hellbent on getting the Ivy League student out? What actions
has he taken to warrant his removal? We turn to Karoline Leavitt for the
official answer.
Khalil organized “group protests that not only disrupted college campus
classes and harassed Jewish-American students and made them feel unsafe on
their own college campus,” the president’s press secretary also told reporters
on Wednesday,“but also distributed pro-Hamas propaganda, flyers with the logo
of Hamas.”
The bolded line is most significant. Organizing protests is as American of a
practice as any, and whether those demonstrations actually “harassed
Jewish-American students and made them feel unsafe” is subjective and
impossible to prove. But distributing flyers with Hamas logos? That’s as cut
and dried as it gets. If Khalil did that, then his deportation is overdue.
Welcoming foreign terrorist sympathizers to America’s shores is obviously not
in our country’s interests.
But there’s a problem. Leavitt opted against proving that Khalil is actually
guilty of her accusation.
“I have those flyers on my desk,” she said during the aforementioned briefing.
“They were provided to me by the Department of Homeland Security. I thought
about bringing them into this briefing room to share with all of you, but I
didn’t think it was worth the dignity of this room to bring that pro-Hamas
propaganda.”
That’s bizarre. If officials have proof that Khalil really is the terrorist
sympathizer they say, why wouldn’t they show it to the world? That would end
the debate once and for all and hand the administration an undeniable win for
protecting America’s national security. Sure,tweets like this are out there
<[link removed]>, but they prove just
about as much as Leavitt did from her podium:nothing. Despite the caption, it
does not show Khalil “passing out pro-HAMAS literature.”
This entire story hinges on whether the detainee is actually guilty of the
accusation the White House is levying. If he is, then Rubio is earnest in
saying his removal is about action. Get ‘em out. If not, then Khalil’s
persecution is the Republican equivalent of the Biden-era crackdowns on free
thinkers questioning the efficacy of COVID vaccines.
No conservative should want that to be the case. The Right’s pro-free speech
crusade must beabsolutely unwavering, even if it doesn’t like the things people
in our country say. If it isn’t, then we’re no better than the Left. We have to
be better than the Left.

This Day in History
March 14, 2013: Xi Jinping becomes President of China. Xi, who had served as
Vice President since 2008, rose to the presidency after receiving 2,952 “yes”
votes from Congress, one “no”, and three abstentions. He replaced Hu Jintao,
who retired after two terms. Economic growth, military build-up, the
strengthening of Chinese-Russian relations, and the consolidation of power have
defined his reign. Xi will remain president until his death.
