Today in The Front Page: where Israel goes next. The war on Christmas. The churches with lines out the door, how the Tate brothers fled Romania, and more.
"The Supreme Court on Tuesday blocked the president’s deployment of National Guard troops in Chicago, to which Illinois officials had objected."
Where is it written in the constitution that the Supreme Court stands above the executive and legislative branches and is the final arbiter of the authority of the other branches?
Yes, of course, I know the Supreme Court, with some deft dance steps, arrogated this power to itself and by implication the lower federal courts in Marbury v Madison (1803).
So what. There are many situations where the courts, which any honest observer will note are just as political as the executive and legislative branches, get it 100% wrong. They inject their own politics and invalidate actions that are clearly constitutionally permissible.
It's time for the other branches to grow a spine. Just say no to the Supreme Court, and lower courts, and follow your own interpretation of constitutional authority.
BTW, this has been done before, as a tiny bit of research will show anyone who thinks this point of view is insane.
Judicial review was established in 1803’s Marburg v Madison. I’ve not read the new decision. But it may not be such a bad thing when tables turn. Imagine President AOC sending her National Guard into a red state to tune up its perceived errors.
Yes, this. Jackson’s “John Marshal has made his ruling, now let him enforce it!” No matter your position regarding Trump’s personality, foibles, character, his actions as the Executive are extremely interesting. He is forcing a reckoning of current government design/administration with Constitutional intent. This decision is not final. It is a ruling from the emergency docket only. It simply allows the current judicially decreed prohibition to remain in place until the case wends its way through the courts.
Please follow up with a neutral analysis of the news that the US economy grew 04.3% during the 3rd quarter. On another matter, The Dispatch’s Nick Catoggio had an interesting piece in yesterday’s Boiling Frogs about Bari Weiss and the CBS 60 Minutes affair.
'Speaking at the Qatari-government-funded Doha Forum earlier this month, he dismissed Israel as a “completely insignificant country” and asked of our relationship with the Jewish state: “What are we getting out of this?”'
Funded by Qatar, Carlson knows where the money is.
But he doesn't seem to understand that that "insignificant" country, Israel, is key to preserving the Western civilization he pretends to cherish.
I am saddened by the whole 60 Minuets kerfuffle. Bari Weiss will have turned out to trash her reputation with that one simple action. She has also hurt the image of independence of The Free Press.
We now have no other choice but to say that for fear of upsetting Trump, Larry Ellison told her to kill the story. As the author of the piece said, if the Administration refused to be on camera to make a statement about sending Venezuelans to a torture prison that should not give them a vote on airing the piece.
Bari has sadly sold her soul, and every decision she now makes will be judged against Ellison currying favor with the President in order to close his deal with Warner/Discovery. That The Free Press has not covered the story is another point to consider. Bari’s excuse is weak. Even if after viewing the piece she took a day or so to make the decision shows it was likely interference.
Trumps wins, intimidation or even just the fear of itimidation works. The Free Press doesn’t seem so free anymore.
The FP lost all credibility after Drop Site exposed that The FP was collaborating with the pro-Israeli group, The Center for Peace Communications, on content. The FP's failure to address it in any way was damning (no denial, nothing). Now comes the CBS story. BW is either naive, stupid, or thinks consumers are stupid. Maybe all three. This CBS experiment will backfire.
Every single piece produced by 60 Minutes is flat-out Soviet-style propaganda. There is no scenario where someone killing a piece by 60 Minutes reflects poorly on them.
Also, your conspiracy theory makes no sense. You are basically saying that since Larry Ellison wants a merger that means we can now trust the Democrat Scumbags masquerading as journalists at 60 Minutes.
Additionally, given the active Democrat conspiracy that has already been proven, with Democrat Senators committing treason and urging soldiers to orchestrate a mutiny, it is virtually guaranteed that the 60 Minutes piece that was killed was a part of that ongoing conspiracy to sabotage the elected government and civilian control of the military by people who are involved in whatever Democrat crime syndicate is being disrupted by the administration’s actions in Venezuela.
Thank you for responding to my detailed explanation of reality by baselessly asserting that I proved your point without elaborating in any way whatsoever. I’ve definitely never seen this bad faith NPC internet cliche before……
And what doesn’t stink is the “investigative piece” that used Berkeley Student Activists as its only source and was put together by the Democrat Lady who was responsible for the DeSantis Vaccine Hoax.
Incorrect, finally someone with integrity for balanced reporting is running the show. The left leaning journalists have never been told no before. As usual resulting in cries of TRUMP and emotions overwhelm them. We want true reporting unbiased and unafraid.
The “investigative piece” that got canned came from the same Democrat Lady who did the hoax about Ron DeSantis getting bribed to distribute the vaccine at the most popular store in Florida.
It’s nice the story was killed but if we are going to sing Bari’s praises, we should note that the fact that this demonic Goebbelsian harlot hasn’t been fired is pretty offensive.
Either Bari bent to pressure or she failed to take timely action to fix the story. Meanwhile the FP should acknowledge that the controversy exists rather than treating it as non-news.
Exactly. Bari should respect us Free Pressers enough (some of us have been with her since Common Sense) to come onto Honestly and be interviewed and set the record straight, from her point of view and in her own words. The Free Press ignoring the story is unfathomable.
Perhaps get your news from places other than main stream media- because Bari stopped the piece for a number of valid reasons. The reporter did not present a balanced view, deliberately withheld key points, and also has a history of bring a bit loose with the truth. CBS has a reputation lower than Diddy so she has to get them back to actual real journalism. But because it is a piece relating to this administration- everyone assumes ( never a good idea) and screams Trump favoritism.
The primary source for the story was a student group at Cal Berkeley that has been trained to identify and expose war crimes. Do I need to say more than that?
Their source might as well be a transsexual hyaena with AIDS who they refer to as an unnamed high ranking intelligence official.
Thank you! I only know a little about this story but I can’t imagine Bari would’ve put a halt on the piece for the above reasons. She was put in that position to do what she did! Just like her town hall with Erika Kirk. A bit more balanced to show how we can debate respectfully. It’s actually funny reading the reactions from the cbs diehards on her changes! And I must have missed what Ellison had to do with it. If people think he’s a better human than Trump…they better find other media outlets as you suggested.
I didn’t see her town hall but know there was swirl on that too.
Honestly- Twitter aka X has multiple viewpoints on this. Way more on depth than stupid mainstream sound bites. Again- I don’t always agree with Bari but I do on this. She’s trying to right the titanic at CBS.
The Administration was offered a chance to comment. There written comment was to interview the government of El Salvador.
I don’t know what else you expected from the CBS journalist, I have no idea what more Bari was looking for since the WH refused to comment. My comment had nothing to do with biased media. It had to do with Bari trashing her reputation at the last minute. It is an extremely bad look inlight of Larry Ellison’s attempt to purchase another news outlet. One in which Trump has already commented on having input on.
The WH provided 3 recorded statements. The reporter refused to use them. Bari also called her out on her statements on those potentially being deported for omitting key information about them. She had issues with the data and the numbers- such as criminal history as well as sentencing.
KC was probably the best place for pre-game tailgating.
That the Royals are moving means that there’ll be a *huge* parking lot that is totally unused a good part of the year.
I don’t know what events you might be able to draw to KC, KS. The new dome in DC could host all sorts of things.
On the alcohol, I don’t know. Bottled seem to last longer for me. Though I did start with eggnog yesterday, I’ve done “Dry January” the past two years. Cointoss on whether it happens next year.
But The Zeds’ temperature isn’t good for the birth rate.
“This week, Abigail is going to answer a question from a woman who’s considering severing ties with her brother because he won’t vaccinate his kids. How should she balance her love of family with the obligation to protect it?”
—————————————
Meanwhile this lady’s youngest daughter who goes to Florida State just had unprotected sex with her 15th guy of the year last weekend.
Do your brother a favor and suddenly disappear forever you deranged crackpot.
“The most prominent critic of U.S.-Israeli ties is the podcaster Tucker Carlson. Speaking at the Qatari-government-funded Doha Forum earlier this month, he dismissed Israel as a “completely insignificant country” and asked of our relationship with the Jewish state: “What are we getting out of this?””
——————————————
Ironically he said this in Qatar which, like Israel, is a client state that we control to manipulate events in the region. Qatar has more natural resources so he sorta has a point.
“Two men in the UK were found guilty of plotting an Islamic State-inspired mass shooting targeting Jews in Manchester. Had the men not been stopped, their attack would have been “one of, if not the, deadliest terrorist attack in UK history,””
——————————————
If you are more mad at these psycho Muslim guys than you are at the Global Democrat Scum who caused this in the first place, then you need to adjust your moral compass.
The woke jihad is conquering Christendom. Europe is in a death spiral where migrants commit crimes, the government arrests people for speaking out against them, then the borders are kept open. It’s time to decolonize Pakistan: https://yuribezmenov.substack.com/p/decolonize-pakistan
“The Kansas City Chiefs announced on Monday that they will be leaving Arrowhead Stadium in Missouri for a brand-new domed facility in Kansas. The Chiefs’ move marks the third National Football League franchise that has left Missouri.”
———————————
LMAO so Trump’s tweet about how the Chiefs are from Kansas, that Democrats made fun of, was just him being able to predict the future like Nostradamus.
Democrats are literally always wrong. It’s amazing if you think about it.
“Russia launched a round of missile and drone attacks into Ukraine on Tuesday morning. The latest round of strikes came just hours after President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine called the American-backed peace plan “quite solid.””

This either did not happen or it was one of John Brennan and Anne Applebaum’s friends launching the drones at themself because they are desperate to keep this going.

And would AOC win at a Supreme Court vastly expanded in number and packed with progressives?
Yes, this.

Thank you for saying this more eloquently than I could!
Thanks for your comment, proof that post liberalism is alive and well.
Thank you for responding to my detailed explanation of reality by baselessly asserting that I proved your point without elaborating in any way whatsoever. I’ve definitely never seen this bad faith NPC internet cliche before……
Both the left and the right are pissed at Bari—probably means she is doing the right thing.
Nope. Bari made the correct decision. Your conspiracy theory is humorous. So is your idea that Bari has “sadly sold her” fish.
Like fish her story stinks
And what doesn’t stink is the “investigative piece” that used Berkeley Student Activists as its only source and was put together by the Democrat Lady who was responsible for the DeSantis Vaccine Hoax.

In media- she would not have seen this piece until final edits so that’s why it was pulled at the last moment.
You and I agree on that. Their silence speaks volumes.

So you prefer biased media? I prefer journalists to research both sides and not editorialize a new article.
