If you say the word “chemtrails” to any government-trusting American citizen, you’ll be painted as a nutty right-wing conspiracy theorist.

However, there’s good news for those who’ve been sounding the alarm. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has recently confirmed the use of chemtrails over America — and so has an Air Force whistleblower and exposure scientist, Kristen Meghan, who’s been making claims about a secret government chemtrail program for over a decade.

Meghan has worked in occupational environmental safety and health as a senior industrial hygienist and an exposure scientist for 23 years. For nine of those years, she worked on active duty in the Air Force in a field called bioenvironmental engineering.

“So, for people to understand, it’s like the DOD’s equivalent of OSHA, EPA, DOT,” Meghan tells Sara Gonzales on “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered.”

When her brother showed her a documentary on chemtrails, Meghan recalls believing it was “the most ridiculous thing” she’d ever heard.

“In my journey of trying to debunk it and basically tell everyone they’re ridiculous, I realized not only is it real, but it’s coming right through my office,” she explains. “A lot of people that have industrial jobs are familiar with something called a safety data sheet.”

“Basically, there’s certain things that are on those sheets, and it has to have packing group information. Like, if you’re shipping it, is it double-contained, all these things. It was missing so much information, and I always say I’m never going to jail for anybody,” she continues.

“Then later, it hits me,” she says. “These same things that are coming in, like powdered oxide form — these heavy metals are the same metals that people are claiming.”

Before telling anyone, she did tests on her own.

“I started doing soil sampling, air sampling, different types of techniques, and … I finally went to my supervisors and was like, ‘Is this this?’” she tells Gonzales.

“There’s things that I can’t tell you, but I’m telling you the aircraft was being retrofitted, and that is the earth-shattering moment,” Meghan adds.

In 2008, just a few days prior to telling her supervisors, Meghan had won noncommissioned officer of the quarter for her exemplary performance. Right after, she began being treated differently.

“They threw the, ‘Are you okay?’ You know, ‘You’re looking a little depressed. I can put you on a 120-day mental hold. Who would watch your daughter?’” she recalls. “I was actually supposed to re-enlist, and without any warning, with about 10 days left, I was out the door. No job.”

“It scared my higher-ups, and I immediately got an attorney, got whistleblower protection, and I was very vocal for a long time,” she continues, noting that they’ve “admitted” why they do this.

“It’s to dim the sun because of global warming,” she says, adding, “but I wonder, though, if a lot of people that are behind this actually believe in global warming.”

New York Times columnist David Brooks’ recent essay in the Atlantic mourned the corrosion of America’s moral fabric. Naturally, Donald Trump is to blame.

Trump’s “narcissistic nihilism,” Brooks argues, is driven by a single philosophy: “Morality is for suckers.” Christian virtues are for the weak. Nietzschean pagan values of power, courage, and glory are for winners. And although many in Trump’s administration “have crosses on their chest,” they harbor “Nietzsche in their heart.” This “deadly cocktail” has transformed America into an entity unrecognizable from the “force for tremendous good” that, according to Brooks, was laid in its coffin on January 20, 2025.

Trump’s appeal to many wasn’t that he embodied virtue. Rather, it was that he promised to protect what remained of the institutions that made virtue possible.

Brooks isn’t the first to hurl such accusations against the president, though, admittedly, he does so in a manner that tickles my philosophical fancy. America’s moral decline has been an issue of concern long before Trump took office.

But is Trump — or any single political leader — really to blame?

Politics follows culture

Like many veterans of the political class, Brooks puts too much faith in institutions. Both parties cling to the comforting illusion that culture flows downstream from politics. Spend enough time inside the D.C. bubble, and even sincere conservatives start to believe that electing the “right” people or passing the “right” laws can do more than govern — that politics can redeem souls from moral collapse.

But pretending policy carries no moral weight is equally foolish. Ask anyone who’s lived under a truly corrupt regime. Still, culture shapes politics more than Washington bureaucrats care to admit.

Diagnosing America’s cultural decline requires more than scolding a single president or passing a bill. It means examining the social landscape that produced such politics in the first place. To understand Washington, we must first look to the soul of the voters who send their leaders there.

Yes, speaking of a national “soul” risks painting in broad strokes at the expense of nuance. Even Brooks would likely concede this much. Americans are desperately reaching for moral touchstones that the culture once upheld. Those touchstones — faith, family, tradition — have been torn down by the very ideologues Trump was elected to oppose.

Up from disillusionment

Brooks concedes a sliver of the truth, admitting that the left has built “a stifling orthodoxy that stamped out dissent.” But his diagnosis barely touches the depth of America’s moral confusion.

More than 40 years ago, Alasdair MacIntyre warned in “After Virtue” that modern society had gutted the moral framework needed to make moral language coherent. Today, we still invoke that language — justice, dignity, meaning — but with no shared foundation beneath it. Efforts to rebuild those foundations now face open hostility.

When public figures like Jordan Peterson face censure for reviving moral guidance once common in homes, churches, and civic life, it reveals something darker. Americans have lost access to the moral raw materials required to build a meaningful life.

Trump’s appeal never rested on personal virtue. It rested on his willingness to defend the institutions that make virtue possible. For millions of voters, he stood as a bulwark against moral collapse — not a saint but a protector of sacred ground. That’s what won him the loyalty of Americans disillusioned by the left’s assault on the moral structures they once relied upon.

The government’s job isn’t to redeem souls. It’s to safeguard the conditions under which people can pursue goodness, truth, and a flourishing life. That means defending the cultural space where moral frameworks can take root — and keeping vandals from tearing it apart.

Brooks calls this “narcissistic nihilism.” In reality, it’s something far rarer: hope — the hope that virtue can still grow in the soil that remains.

A 32-year-old Florida male who had been out on bond after a 2023 incident during which he allegedly exposed his privates to a 13-year-old girl, masturbated, and said, ‘It’s big, isn’t it?” has been arrested after what authorities said was a similar incident this week.

What’s the background?

About a year and a half ago, Lauderhill police said a 13-year-old girl was walking to school when she said a male in a vehicle told her, “It’s big, isn’t it,” while he pleasured his exposed privates, WTVJ-TV reported.

Records show Davis remained in the Broward County jail Thursday afternoon.

The girl gave officers a description of the male, as well as his vehicle, and detectives identified the suspect as Travis Davis, officials told the station.

Detectives arrested Davis on charges of lewd and lascivious exhibition and indecent exposure of sexual organs, WTVJ said in a separate story, which added that police said they received additional calls from others describing similar accounts.

Prosecutors at the time said Davis admitted to driving around schools and approaching underage girls, WSVN-TV reported.

A judge ordered Davis to have no contact with minors and to stay at least 100 feet away from all public and private schools in the area, WSVN said. Records show Davis was released on bond while awaiting trial, WTVJ said.

Another accusation

A 16-year-old girl told Fort Lauderdale police that she was walking to school Monday morning near the 2100 block of Northwest 20th Street when a male in a gray Dodge Charger approached her at the intersection, WTVJ said.

The girl said the male rolled down his window, exposed his genitals, and made inappropriate gestures and movements before fleeing the scene, the station said.

Detectives later identified the male in question as Davis, and he was arrested Tuesday on charges of exposure of sexual organs (second offense) and violation of pretrial release, police added to WTVJ.

Records show Davis remained in the Broward County jail Thursday afternoon.

Comedian and actress Wanda Sykes said that white people should be embarrassed over the first 100 days of the second term of President Donald Trump.

Sykes made the comments while a guest on “The Late Show” after host Stephen Colbert asked her what she thought of the Signal debacle under Defense Dept. Secretary Pete Hegseth. She had previously worked as a procurement specialist at the National Security Agency.

‘You ain’t got no business being on Signal! Signal is for booty calls! That’s it! That’s it!’

“I have to say, white people, y’all should be embarrassed by this. You really should be. Y’all really need to do something, seriously. ‘Cuz this is embarrassing,” said Sykes.

“I know you’ll say, ‘Well, Wanda, why white people?’ Because we tried to tell y’all! We tried to tell ya’ll, and y’all didn’t want to listen, so now this is your problem,” she added.

“Black people are busy,” Sykes said to laughter from the audience. “We’re doing other stuff right now. Y’all gotta do it.”

Sykes also praised some of the protests against Trump but added that they needed to do more.

“And I’m so proud of you. I see you out there protesting. So keep up the good work, but now you got to amp it up. I need y’all to go back and look at some of our old protests and get some tips,” she continued.

“Black folks, we’re going to be right there behind you — not really,” she joked. “We’re not even going to be behind you. You know what? We’ll like your post, that’s what we’ll do.”

Sykes called the administration “embarrassing, incompetent, and corrupt.” She referred to her past employment in the government to criticize Hegseth for the controversy over Defense officials using Signal to discuss war plans against the Houthi terrorists.

“You ain’t got no business being on Signal!” she added. “Signal is for booty calls! That’s it! That’s it!”

The segment can be viewed on the video from “The Late Show” on YouTube.

President Donald Trump’s budget lays out plans to cut funding for several federal programs and services that incentivize illegal immigration, Blaze News has exclusively learned.

Illegal immigration was a focal point of Trump’s campaign and is now a focal point of his presidency. With border crossings now reaching record lows, Trump is aiming to defund the “invasion” altogether by cutting taxpayer programs his administration says incentivizes illegal immigration, according to a memo obtained exclusively by Blaze News. These include programs that de-emphasize the importance of the English language and provide special taxpayer-funded, liberally tinged education to illegal migrants.

The president’s budget is independent from the House and the Senate’s efforts and negotiations, but it serves as a signal and a blueprint for the White House’s priorities.

By eliminating these programs, Trump’s budget will actively disincentivize illegal immigration and simultaneously save Americans over $5.6 billion.

“President Trump is committed to eliminating the funding of our own invasion,” the memo, obtained by Blaze News, reads. “The President’s FY 2026 Budget fully funds a strong border, mass deportation, and stops the endless stream of benefits to illegal aliens given preference over American citizens.”

Trump’s budget would eliminate the English Language Acquisition program, which promotes “educational equity” and touts multilingualism as opposed to encouraging English as the United States’ primary language, according to the memo. Under former President Joe Biden’s administration, this program was used to fund education for illegal aliens while “simultaneously promoting divisive ideological indoctrination in the classroom.” Cutting this program alone would save the taxpayer $890 million.

Other “educational” programs on the chopping block include the Adult Education and Family Literacy Act grant program and the Migrant Education and Special Programs for Migrant Students, saving Americans $729 million and $428 million, respectively. These programs provide various educational services to illegal aliens, oftentimes encouraging “radical diversity, equity, and inclusion,” or DEI.

Trump’s budget would also eliminate the Department of Homeland Security Shelter and Services Program, which the White House charges “massively facilitated illegal migration” by providing transportation and shelter to illegal aliens in Democrat-run sanctuary cities and states, saving taxpayers $650 million. The budget would also eliminate another $3.5 billion in Migration and Refugee Assistance, which the Biden Department of State used to facilitate illegal migration on the premise of a “mostly bogus refugee status.”

By eliminating these programs, Trump’s budget would both actively disincentivize illegal immigration and simultaneously save Americans over $5.6 billion.

Police are looking for a suspect who allegedly rammed his car into an adult and two children outside of a church at a beach town in South Carolina.

Isle of Palms police Sgt. Matt Storen said the car was crashed into the Sunrise Presbyterian Church on Sullivan’s Island near Charleston. One of the children and the adult were transported to the Medical University of South Carolina, while the second child was released after being treated at the scene, according to a spokesperson.

Storen said that the suspect is believed to be armed with a knife.

Police identified a suspect as Justin Collin Adams and said he was considered armed and dangerous. Adams abandoned the sedan he was driving and fled on foot. Storen said that the suspect is believed to be armed with a knife.

The trio were standing outside of the preschool at the church when they were allegedly struck.

A manhunt is under way by police with the assistance of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, as well as the U.S. Marshals. They are conducting a grid search of houses and deploying drones to scan entryways.

Police said they were investigating the incident based on reports that it was possibly an intentional hit-and-run, while other reports say it might have been an accidental crash.

Adams was wearing a red shirt and dark shorts at the time of the incident, according to police. They describe him as a heavyset white male with facial hair who is balding.

The hospitalized adult is expected to be OK.

Video from the scene can be viewed on the ABC News report on YouTube.

Last week, Glenn Beck sat down for an exclusive interview with President Trump to review his first 100 days in office. It should come as no surprise that they discussed a wide range of topics, as the Trump administration has operated at a pace that is both shocking and awe-inspiring.

Among the list of subjects Glenn brought up — which included executive orders, congressional action, border security, judicial insurrection, and AI development, among others — was the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine.

President Trump provided valuable insight into the challenges of securing a ceasefire deal in Ukraine, what he believes sparked this war, and why he’s so set on ending it.

Trump told Glenn that had he won in 2020, the war between Russia and Ukraine “would have never happened.”

It was Biden’s energy policies that doubled prices and enabled Putin’s invasion, he explained.

However, falling energy prices, thanks to Trump’s green light on energy production, is now hindering Russia’s efforts. Even still, negotiations to end the war are far from complete.

“Is [Zelenskyy] the problem? Is Putin the problem? Or is Europe the problem?” Glenn asked.

Trump’s answer? It’s complicated, but the majority of the blame falls on Biden.

“This is Biden’s war,” he said, noting the “$350 billion” the former president funneled into Ukraine.

Even though Trump inherited this problem from Biden’s deeply incompetent and corrupt administration, he’s still going to “end it” — not just for the sake of stopping the bleeding of cash, but also because the war is killing “5,000 people a week.”

Unfortunately, Zelenskyy’s demands for security and aid aren’t making negotiations easy.

“He’s asking for more, just more and more and more, and he doesn’t have the cards,” Trump told Glenn, adding that Putin has actually been the easier of the two to work with.

“I don’t believe that Vladimir Putin would be doing this for anybody else but me. … I think he’s willing to make a deal,” he added.

Cuban-American Republicans who support deportations under the Trump administration are being called traitors and sellouts in a billboard campaign in Florida.

The billboards are targeting Secretary of State Marco Rubio, as well as three members of Congress, over the deportation of illegal aliens to the infamous terrorist prison in El Salvador.

‘The billboards are a direct response to the current political climate. One that’s very angry.’

One billboard had red text reading, “Traitors. To Immigrants. To Miami-Dade. To the American Dream,” against a red background.

The other Florida Republicans targeted were Reps. Maria Elvira Salazar, Carlos Gimenez, and Mario Diaz-Balart.

South Florida constituents spoke to WPLG-TV about how they were receiving the advertisements.

“I find that billboard inflammatory, but the world we live in now ― it’s there to get attention,” said Noel Cleland.

“I think the billboards are a direct response to the current political climate,” said Jessica Perez. “One that’s very angry.”

A digital campaign funded by Democrats has similar aims and is called “Keep Them Honest.”

One constituent said they supported the message in the ads.

“I think the [members of Congress] need to speak up,” Valerie Howell said. “I think they need to get the courage not to be cowed by Trump.”

WPLG reported that more billboards were expected to be installed, and none of the targeted lawmakers had responded yet.

President Donald Trump has tried to navigate numerous court challenges to implement mass deportations of illegal aliens, which he promised during his presidential campaign. Critics have accused the administration of acting unconstitutionally and unlawfully in some cases. The U.S. Supreme Court backed such a criticism in one case.

Rubio has suggested that the administration will ignore court rulings getting in the way of the directive from the president.

Images of the billboards can be viewed on the news report from WPLG on YouTube.

Shedeur Sanders fell off the draft board of nearly every team because of his arrogance and attitude, NFL insiders have reported.

Former NFL quarterback turned analyst Boomer Esiason said NFL owners told their teams to take Sanders off their draft boards after he “torpedoed himself.”

‘I think he was very off putting to many, many coaches and general managers in the league.’

Esiason echoed what many reporters and analysts have been saying about Sanders, the son of NFL legend Deion, in that the young quarterback’s attitude off the field and at the NFL Combine was what dropped him from a first-round draft pick to a fifth. By most accounts, Sanders was lucky to be drafted even then.

“When you listen to this kid talk, prior or at the Combine, about ‘if you want a new culture in your locker room, I’m the guy to do that, I can turn it around.’ I mean, he’s very high on himself, and I think he was very off-putting, off-putting to many, many coaches and general managers in the league,” Esiason said on WFAN660 radio. “I’m telling you right now — and I know this after talking to three different personnel people in the NFL this weekend — they didn’t even have him on their board. They took him off, and they took him off because the owner said, ‘Take him off.'”

Relaying what he was told owners had said, Esiason recalled, “‘I don’t want that guy. I don’t want this entitled person on our team,’ and I don’t blame them.”

Hall of Fame wide receiver Cris Carter had a similar report from his conversations with NFL staff members. On the “Fully Loaded” podcast, Carter said there were many factors that hurt Sanders’ draft ranking.

Not only did Carter feel it was a disservice for Sanders to not participate in the NFL Draft Combine, but also his attitude in his interviews, his media statements, and his father’s advocation hurt his image with teams. According to Carter, Sanders may have hurt his chances with many teams in the future, as well, because of his attitude, as general managers and coaches will remember their first interaction with him.

“Let me tell you what he understands today, OK?” Carter explained. “He ain’t running s**t, OK? Let me tell you what, they taught him a great lesson. Like, you don’t have this figured out, your dad don’t have this figured out.”

Despite President Trump advocating for Sanders’ talent and bloodline, critics seem to agree that Sanders was the author of his own demise.

CBS Sports NFL reporter Jonathan Jones said Sanders “sandbagged” several of his interviews and “did not give it his all” in meetings with teams he did not think would draft him, which “rubbed some teams the wrong way.”

NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero said an assistant coach told him that Sanders conducted “the worst formal interview” he had ever witnessed in his life.

The assistant coach used a now all-too-familiar term, “entitled,” to describe Sanders, and he added that he has “horrible body language,” “blames teammates,” and actually is “not that good,” Pelissero relayed, per Yahoo Sports.

Meta, the parent company of Facebook, apologized for errors on its artificial intelligence chatbot about an anti-DEI reporter who filed a multimillion-dollar lawsuit against the company.

Robby Starbuck says that the chatbot falsely claimed that he was present at the rioting on Jan. 6 at the U.S. Capitol and was charged with a crime, even though he says he was not even in Washington, D.C., at the time.

‘I couldn’t believe it was real so I checked myself. It was even worse when I checked.’

“The case is WILD and has implications for ALL OF US. On top of falsely calling me a criminal, Meta suggested my kids be taken from me,” he said on social media.

He posted a litany of other false accusations made against him on the AI resource and explains how he found out about the claims during an investigation into diversity, equity, and inclusion policies at Harley Davidson.

“We found this out in August of 2024 when I was exposing woke policies at Harley Davidson,” Starbuck wrote. “One dealership was unhappy with me and they posted a screenshot from Meta’s AI in an effort to attack me. This screenshot was filled with lies. I couldn’t believe it was real so I checked myself. It was even worse when I checked.”

He said that the company was informed about the false claims by his lawyers last year, but the misinformation continued.

“From that day I’ve faced a steady stream of false accusations that are deeply damaging to my character and the safety of my family,” Starbuck added.

He posted some screenshots of the chatbot on his social media account.

On Tuesday, Meta’s chief global affairs officer, Joel Kaplan, apologized to Starbuck in a public statement.

“Robby — I watched your video — this is unacceptable. This is clearly not how our AI should operate. We’re sorry for the results it shared about you and that the fix we put in place didn’t address the underlying problem,” he wrote. “I’m working now with our product team to understand how this happened and explore potential solutions.”

Meta also said in a statement to The Hill that the company is constantly updating the chatbot to address these issues.

“As part of our continuous effort to improve our models, we have already released updates and will continue to do so,” said a spokesperson.

In a response to the apology, Starbuck said that the company responded only after he filed his lawsuit.

“While I’m the target today, a candidate you like could be the next target, and lies from Meta’s AI could flip votes that decide the election,” said Starbuck. “YOU could be the next target too. That’s why I’m taking on this David vs. Goliath fight. For me, my honor, my family, for our elections, and FOR YOU!”

Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota fired off an expletive at a reporter after being asked a very benign question about immigration enforcement.

Omar appeared to be upset at a Daily Caller reporter for asking her opinion on Democrats appearing to back off on trips to El Salvador as a form of protest against the immigration enforcement policies of President Donald Trump.

‘Defenders of the president’s policies say critics are animated by the desire to end all deportations of any illegal aliens.’

Democrats have charged that the Trump administration has violated the due process rights of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran man who was deported from Maryland after the administration determined that he was a member of the violent MS-13 gang.

Some Democrats have flown to El Salvador to seek Garcia’s release from the terrorist prison, but so far their demands have been rebuffed by the president of El Salvador. When asked if the trips should continue, Omar fired off a profanity.

“Do you think more of your Democratic colleagues should be traveling to El Salvador to advocate on behalf of Abrego Garcia?” asked Myles Morell.

“I think you should f**k off,” the congresswoman replied.

“I’m sorry, what, congresswoman?” Morell said.

“You should f**k off,” she repeated. “You.”

The controversy has led to a feud between Democrats, the courts, and the Trump administration. Democrats accuse the president of acting unconstitutionally, while the administration has suggested it will ignore rulings from the judicial branch that it deems as violating the separation of powers.

Defenders of the president’s policies say critics are animated by the desire to end all deportations of any illegal aliens in the U.S. Garcia’s supporters point to an admission in court from the government’s lawyers that he was deported over a clerical error to argue that he should be returned to the U.S.

To complicate the debate, more and more revelations have surfaced to bolster the accusation from the government that Garcia was indeed a gang member.

Here’s the video of Omar’s insults:

President Donald Trump issued a proclamation on March 15 invoking the Alien Enemies Act and declaring that Tren de Aragua is “a designated Foreign Terrorist Organization” aligned with the Venezuelan Maduro regime that “is perpetrating, attempting, and threatening an invasion or predatory incursion against the territory of the United States.”

“I proclaim that all Venezuelan citizens 14 years of age or older who are members of TdA, are within the United States, and are not actually naturalized or lawful permanent residents of the United States are liable to be apprehended, restrained, secured, and removed as Alien Enemies,” added Trump.

A federal judge ruled Thursday that President Donald Trump’s invocation of the AEA through the proclamation was “unlawful” and barred the Trump administration from using it against Venezuelan aliens in the court’s judicial district.

The administration deported at least 137 Venezuelan aliens under the law on March 15.

‘The Proclamation does not suggest that they have done so through an organized armed attack.’

While claiming at the outset that neither “the Court nor the parties question the Executive Branch’s authority and responsibility to enforce federal laws,” U.S. District Judge Fernando Rodriguez Jr. appears to have done just that.

The judge indicated that Trump’s March 15 proclamation satisfactorily placed responsibility for Tren de Aragua’s actions in the U.S. on the Venezuelan government — precluding the need to determine whether the terrorist gang represents a foreign nation or government. Rodriguez noted, however, that the activities of the terrorist gang inside the U.S. “do not fall within the plain, ordinary meaning of ‘invasion’ or ‘predatory incursion’ for the purposes of the AEA.”

While Tren de Aragua terrorists might have illegally entered the nation, “harmed lives in the United States and engage in crime, the Proclamation does not suggest that they have done so through an organized armed attack, or that Venezuela has threatened or attempted such an attack through TdA members,” wrote the judge.

Rodriguez concluded that “the historical record renders clear that the President’s invocation of the AEA through the Proclamation exceeds the scope of the statute and is contrary to the plain, ordinary meaning of the statute’s claims.”

While numerous courts, including the U.S. Supreme Court, have blocked the Trump administration’s deportations under the AEA, Rodriguez is reportedly the first judge to have reached a final decision on the merits.

The American Civil Liberties Union, which brought the lawsuit with the ACLU of Texas to keep suspected foreign terrorists from being deported, celebrated the decision.

ACLU attorney Lee Gelernt said in a statement, “Congress never meant for this 18th-century wartime law to be used this way. This is a critically important decision that prevents more people from being sent to the notorious CECOT prison.”

Reuters indicated that neither the White House nor the Department of Justice responded to its requests for comment.

On Thursday, Rodriguez also allowed Venezuelans targeted for deportation under the AEA to proceed with a class-action lawsuit against the Trump administration, reported WFIN.com.

“The unusual circumstances of this case present a compelling justification to utilize a procedure equivalent to a class action authorized by Rule 23,” wrote Rodriguez.

My first acquaintance with David Horowitz, who died Tuesday at the age of 86 following a battle with cancer, was as Peter Collier’s co-author on “The Kennedys: An American Drama,” published in 1984. That year in Washington, I heard Peter and David explain their departure from the left, which had people talking.

In 1987, when I met David at his Los Angeles home, he asked me what I did in the 1960s. I told him my primary interest was getting stoned, but like many others, I raised my voice against the war in Vietnam. David promptly invited me to the Second Thoughts Conference in 1987. As Peter Collier explained in the foreword to my “Bill of Writes,” the participants shared one central conviction:

The god of the New Left had failed them personally during its nihilistic strut on the stage of the ’60s and they were ready to testify against the smelly little orthodoxies they had once affirmed. In the future, some of these Second Thoughters went on to be conservatives, but they would always have a more profound identity as “ex-leftists,” who knew that the utopia they (we) had been building had never really been anything more than a Potemkin waste site, and that while leftism might try to disguise itself as “liberal” or “progressive,” totalitarianism by any other name would smell just as rancid.

The ex-leftists, myself now among them, were ready to take on Hollywood. They prompted David to found the Center for the Study of Popular Culture and bring me aboard as a journalism fellow. David once toned down my description of Lillian Hellman as a “Stalinist swamp sow,” but for the most part, we were on the same page. I worked with Peter on Heterodoxy, and both colleagues helped me out on the work that would become “Hollywood Party.” Heterodoxy transformed into Frontpage, where I write to this day.

David considered Peter the better writer, but David never wrote a dull page. Consider, for example, “Radical Son,” which belongs on a shelf with Whittaker Chambers’ “Witness,” “Out of Step” by Sidney Hook, and “The God that Failed” by a group of ex-communists, including Arthur Koestler, Andre Gide, and Richard Wright.

I recently reviewed the account of the Black Panthers in “Radical Son,” the founding of their school in Oakland, the murder of Betty Van Patter, and a lot more. But as it turned out, I had forgotten what David had written up front: “To Lloyd, comrade-in-arms, who joined us at Second Thoughts.”

David Horowitz now joins Peter Collier, who died in 2019. Farewell, brave warriors for truth and freedom.

Dr. Jay Bhattacharya has landed the coveted role as director of the National Institutes of Health, and those in the Make America Healthy Again movement couldn’t be happier, as getting to the root cause of our nation’s health problems is what Bhattacharya has been working toward his entire career.

“I want to fulfill the mandate that President Trump and Secretary Kennedy gave to me, which is to use the NIH to do the research so we can understand how to make America healthy,” he tells Jill Savage of “Blaze News Tonight.”

And one of the first steps Bhattacharya is taking is launching a major initiative where scientists across the country will be compelled to actually answer the question of why autism has risen so significantly in recent years.

“The problem with autism is that — first, the rise, when you look back, is just meteoric,” Bhattacharya tells Savage.

However, to question the cause of autism or to focus on its rise coincides with a disbelief in vaccines or being “anti-science.”

“Somehow, you’re automatically anti-vaccine if you just notice the fact that there are so many more autistic kids than there were when I was a kid. And you put that together, and what you have is millions of families that don’t have an answer to this question,” he explains.

In the coming months, Bhattacharya tells Savage that Americans can expect to see tons of resources thrown at this problem.

“In just a few months, we’ll have a dozen or more research teams, where we chose them competitively from lots of research teams across the country,” he says. “It’ll be a range of methods, so, you know, basic science lab work to epidemiology to you name it, and with no holds barred as to hypothesis.”

As Dr. Bhattacharya was one of the lone voices that was willing to speak out against the federal government’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic, it seems that we’re in good hands.

“The rest of the industry was saying, ‘No, you’re wrong,’ and, ‘Don’t say the things that you’re saying,’” Savage comments.

“It was a shocking experience for me. I thought scientists had academic freedom, and I’ve learned differently. In fact, probably the biggest problem during COVID was that. Like normally, if you can’t have free speech, then you can’t have science, is what I learned. And I think that’s why we had such bad outcomes with COVID,” he tells Savage.

“We suppressed speech of scientists. The Biden administration suppressed speech of normal Americans who questioned the school closures, the lockdowns, and all the policies that didn’t actually protect anybody, that yet ended up harming so many people at scale,” he continues.

“That’s actually another one of my priorities. I want to restore free speech in science,” he adds.

For once, Scott Jennings wasn’t the focal point of a heated debate on “CNN NewsNight” — and it’s a fair bet he had no problem with that, given what went down on Wednesday’s edition.

This time the combatants were far-left CNN political commentator Ana Navarro — whom we also know as a far-left co-host of “The View” — and conservative pundit Shermichael Singleton.

‘Because you’ve advocated for black people, great. Congratulations. Last time I checked, I’m black; you’re not.’

The topic was President Donald Trump’s deportation policies — but the debate soon morphed into a bitter, fiery racial argument between Navarro and Singleton, with both of them frequently hollering over each other.

Anchor Abby Phillip attempted in vain to rein things in, while Jennings and others around the table stayed out of it. But after continued fireworks, Phillip was forced to cut to a commercial as the battle of words between the two raged on.

You can view the dust-up here — and make sure to check out the words below that Navarro and Singleton fired at each other:

NAVARRO: You know who was here illegally before the deportation order? Marco Rubio’s grandfather.

SINGLETON: We’re not talking about Marco Rubio.

NAVARRO: Oh, now we’re not? Now, that’s not relevant?

SINGLETON: It’s not relevant. It’s not relevant to this conversation at all.

NAVARRO: No, I’m talking about Marco Rubio because Marco Rubio used to be an advocate for [Temporary Protected Status] for Venezuelans, and Marco Rubio used to be an advocate for Nicaraguans and Cubans.

SINGLETON: Well, I’m not Marco Rubio —

NAVARRO: No, I know you’re not.

SINGLETON: — and let me tell you my beliefs. If you come to this country illegally, you are going home. Simple as that. We do not have unlimited resources in this country to take care of other people.

NAVARRO: There’s a hell of a lot people other than the black people who were brought here as slaves who came to this country illegally.

SINGLETON: They are not the same as black people who were brought here against our will. [Illegal immigrants] decided to walk their butts across the border. There’s a big difference. There is a big difference! There’s a big difference, Ana!

NAVARRO: That’s exactly what I just said. I said there is a lot of people other than the black people! That’s exactly what I just said! That’s exactly what I just said, Shermichael! [You] look and act indignant!

SINGLETON: It’s not about acting indignant.

NAVARRO: Yes, it is!

SINGLETON: You’re acting as if you have the moral high ground here.

NAVARRO: You just heard me say that other than the black people who came as slaves there are a lot of people from many countries that came here illegally!

PHILLIP: I think you misheard what she said.

SINGLETON: Okay. Okay.

NAVARRO: No, he purposely misheard it!

SINGLETON: I purposely misheard it?

NAVARRO: Yes, you did!

SINGLETON: Now you’re in my brain? Is that where we’re going?

NAVARRO: You think [that] I who have advocated for black people my entire life would say something like that? Give me a damn break!

SINGLETON: Because you’ve advocated for black people, great. Congratulations. Last time I checked, I’m black; you’re not.

NAVARRO: That’s right! I’m Latino, and my people are being racially profiled!

SINGLETON: Do I have to remind you the history of my people? Do you want to go there? Do you really want to go on the moral high ground? Are you kidding me? Are you kidding me?

Former Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Henry Ruggs III is reportedly training for an NFL comeback while behind bars in prison.

A former first-round draft pick in 2020, Ruggs pled guilty to one count of driving under the influence resulting in death and one count of vehicular manslaughter in 2021. Ruggs’ accident led to the death of a 23-year-old-woman when he hit Tina Tintor with his Corvette, allegedly with alcohol in his system.

The plea deal, according to CBS Sports, resulted in 36 to 120 months for the first charge, a felony, and an additional six months for the second charge, a misdemeanor.

Ruggs will be eligible for parole in August 2026 and has reportedly been allotted time while in prison to work out for a potential return to the NFL.

Interestingly, the revelations have not come from Ruggs himself, but rather from Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs. The Pro Bowl rusher said he has stayed in touch with Ruggs since they were teammates in Alabama.

“I still talk to Henry. Henry still calls me. I still help him out. … We’re still connected. I know his whole family. He’s from Alabama. He played with me at ‘Bama. His momma and them taught me how to bowl. … Keeping up with him and hearing him talk, it brings me spirits, because he’s always positive,” Jacobs explained.

Jacobs, 27, said that Ruggs has been training in prison and that he has been making calls in hopes of getting help to get in front of some teams upon his release.

“He’s positive about everything. He’s training. They let him train and things like that, so I’m like, ‘When you come out, man, I don’t know if you will get a chance.’ I’ve been talking to some people for him. They’ve been saying a couple of teams are willing to give him a chance. I’m like, ‘When you get that chance, man, you better not, ever, don’t look back, and prove to yourself and prove to everybody that one decision don’t define you and who you are as a man.'”

‘He’s a good kid. He’s never been in trouble. I’ve never seen him do nothing crazy.’

Jacobs attempted to paint Ruggs in a favorable light, as one would expect, describing the incarcerated player as the “breadwinner of the family” who has been changing his family’s life.

“I had some words with some [of his family], and I’m just like, ‘Man, y’all got to understand, like, he the breadwinner of the family. He the one changing all of y’all’s lives. Everybody.'”

“And then not only that, he’s a good kid. He’s never been in trouble. I’ve never seen him do nothing crazy,” Jacobs continued. “He was just one of them guys that have a very, very unfortunate situation and something happened, a decision that he made. That’s what hurt me the most. Man, he isn’t somebody you would look at and be like, ‘Bro, you deserved this to happen to you.'”

Ruggs played for the Raiders in 2020 and 2021, recording 921 receiving yards with four touchdowns in 20 games. The 26-year-old also had 11 kick return attempts while with the team.

When Ruggs signed his rookie contract in 2020, he was making an average salary of $4.17 million, with a $9.68 million signing bonus.
His entire $16 million contract was guaranteed upon signing.

When COVID-19 washed up on American shores, everyone, including children, were believed by the top scientists in the country to be at grave risk. However, once the threat to children was found to be minimal, children instead became suspected of being “super spreaders.”

“Empirical evidence was being ignored, and instead, the officials were following theory. They made up all sorts of contrived reasons,” David Zweig, investigative journalist and author of “An Abundance of Caution: American Schools, the Virus, and a Story of Bad Decisions,” tells Allie Beth Stuckey of “Relatable.”

Despite the fearmongering surrounding schools reopening and children’s status as “super spreaders,” the fact that cases went down in places like Europe after children went back to school didn’t phase the scientists.

“What that does suggest, of course, is that children were not super spreaders, schools were not driving the pandemic,” Zweig tells Stuckey. “The point is, the evidence was there that this wasn’t dangerous, this wasn’t increasing cases, and it was ignored, and it was dismissed with these contrived reasons.”

While the mainstream media and “the science” was focused on the potential harm faced by the immunocompromised, what they didn’t seem to care about was how social isolation, masks, and digital learning would affect children in the most formative years of their lives.

“There is something disordered in asking kids to sacrifice on behalf of adults,” Stuckey tells Zweig, adding, “There is something inherently unjust about that.”

“What they aren’t understanding, perhaps, is the incredible harm on so many children, millions of kids, and you have to think about what kind of society, as you said, what kind of society does this to children?” Zweig agrees.

“No one was saved by long-term school closures. No one was saved from masking 2-year-olds. No one was saved by barriers on desks and all this other nonsense. This was only harm. No trade-off. No benefit,” he continues.

“Even beyond the horrors of child abuse,” he says, which he notes became more prevalent during COVID, “there were plenty of kids who became anorexic and bulimic, screen time skyrocketed during the pandemic and never kind of went back down, anxiety, depression.”

“I talked with a lot of mental health professionals for children. Their practices were exploding during the pandemic, and it wasn’t because of people dying, let me be very clear about that. It was directly correlated with kids being kept out of school,” he explains.

Politicians like Governor Andrew Cuomo (D-N.Y.) claimed that their hard stance on COVID was only so strict because it was worth it to save even one life — but Zweig knows that couldn’t be further from the truth.

“You’re taking one or more lives to ostensibly try to save that one life. It was extraordinarily foolish,” Zweig says.

“Toxic empathy,” Stuckey chimes in. “It blinds you to reality and morality, and you ignore the victim on the other side of the moral equation.”

A 17-year-old male from Minnesota is dominating girls’ softball after allegedly hiding his true gender from his team.

According to a recent report, the male athlete plays for Champlin Park High School in Champlin, Minnesota, and is a starting pitcher for the school’s girls’ fast-pitch team.

The 6-foot athlete recently started in the season opener against the state champion Rogers High School, where he pitched a shutout with 14 strikeouts. He also hit a double.

Charlie Rothenberger, who now goes by “Marissa,” reportedly started playing girls’ sports at an early age. According to research by Reduxx, court documents show that Rothenberger’s mother applied to the Hennepin County District Court to alter his birth certificate just after he turned 9 years old.

The mother’s petition was approved, and her son was issued a new birth certificate that changed his sex to “female” and changed his name from “Charlie Dean” to “Marissa.”

While most changes to birth certificates in Minnesota require labels indicating that information has been changed, if a person acquires a court order to replace the birth record, “the original record will be sealed,” the state notes on their website.

“The new birth certificate doesn’t indicate that the record has been changed,” the state website adds. It then becomes “confidential and only released according to Minnesota law.”

Rothenberger was shown in a highlight package in 2024 that displayed an obvious advantage and masculinity compared to his competitors.

An anonymous female softball player from Minnesota spoke to Reduxx and claimed that she played on the same team as Rothenberger in 2023.

‘Looking back now, it disgusts me and is just scary.’

The girl said she did not realize Rothenberger was male for a number of years and first thought of him as an “awkward” girl.

“I never thought he was a boy, but after finding out he was a boy and then looking back on a lot of things I wouldn’t have looked at before, [it] definitely shows he is a boy, and I felt dumb for missing the clues,” the girl recalled.

The athlete said it was not until July 2024 when she discovered Rothenberger was male, and by November, “lots of people from the softball community found out the truth and were openly talking about it.”

“Looking back now, it disgusts me and is just scary,” she added.

The former teammate described Rothenberger’s athletic abilities as “completely unreal” and “much more” than what any of the other girls are capable of. She said she was bothered by being told that she just has to “learn to accept that men can take advantage of you even if they just want to identify as a female.”

She continued, “Many players and I work so hard to achieve something through this sport, and we find it unfair that our spot can be stolen from us.”

“This shouldn’t be allowed, and boys can stay in boys’ sports and leave us girls alone. I shouldn’t have to learn this lesson that girls don’t matter or that we need to just be silent while we lose out so a boy feels okay.”

Rothenberger has previously been named Player of the Month and has played for a traveling rep team. In his bio for that team, Rothenberger brags that he is “known to have an infectious personality full of passion, drive and humor.”

On a recent episode of “Back to the People,” Nicole Shanahan interviewed Dr. Joseph Ladapo — a Nigerian-American physician and health policy researcher currently serving as the surgeon general of Florida.

One of the subjects they discussed was Dr. Ladapo’s role during the pandemic. Unlike the great majority of doctors who championed masks, social distancing, and lockdowns, Dr. Ladapo was courageous enough to report the truth: “The government was doing it wrong.”

“You rose to national fame because of your early findings on the lockdowns. You studied the science around mask efficacy and mask mandates and school closures, and like Jay Bhattacharya, you came to the conclusion that the federal government had it wrong,” says Shanahan. “I still remember hearing about how Florida was going to reopen before any other state did, and that was really under your guidance and leadership.”

“Honestly, Governor DeSantis deserves all the credit,” says Dr. Ladapo.

However, his courage to speak the truth traces all the way back to a childhood tragedy.

“I was a victim of sexual abuse,” he tells Nicole.

He adds that it “stunted my emotional development — my ability to emotionally connect with other people.”

It wasn’t until adulthood when he met and fell in love with his wife that he was able to finally deal with the abuse in his past.

“Because my wife is so intuitive, she found a guy, a Navy SEAL named Christopher Maher. … And he’s very talented healer, and I ended up going to work with him … and it was the most transformative experience I could ever imagine,” says Dr. Ladapo.

“When you get rid of 95% of the garbage we carry around to protect ourselves, guess what? You have more access to your love, you have more access to courage, you have more access to virtue.”

Nicole is shocked and encouraged by Dr. Ladapo’s vulnerability.

“You generally don’t hear that level of honesty from people, especially people in official government roles,” she says. “You’re the surgeon general. You are literally the mouthpiece for health in your state, and to hear you use that position of power to talk about healing trauma and what comes from it and through it is so powerful.”

Dr. Ladapo’s story about his journey to well-being isn’t an isolated event, though. It’s a signal that the tides in this country are turning, especially as they relate to health.

“Think about if every person in a position of power … did that kind of work on themselves,” says Nicole.

“The world would look totally different — definitely for people in positions of power, but even for everyone because we are all powerful. We are all reflections of God’s love and God’s light and God’s consciousness,” says Dr. Ladapo.

To hear more of the conversation, watch the episode above.

President Donald Trump announced that he will be nominating Mike Waltz, who currently serves as his national security adviser, to instead be the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio will serve as the interim national security adviser until the president appoints a new candidate to permanently fill the role. The announcement to reassign Waltz came just hours after multiple reports began to surface about his rumored firing from the administration for his role in the now infamous Signal chat leaks.

Given his responsibility in ‘SignalGate,’ we can expect to see senators apply significant pressure on the nominee during his confirmation hearing.

“I am pleased to announce that I will be nominating Mike Waltz to be the next United States Ambassador to the United Nations,” Trump said in a Truth Social post Thursday. “From his time in uniform on the battlefield, in Congress and, as my National Security Advisor, Mike Waltz has worked hard to put our Nation’s interests first. I know he will do the same in his new role.”

“In the interim, Secretary of State Marco Rubio will serve as National Security Advisor, while continuing his strong leadership at the State Department,” Trump added. “Together, we will continue to fight tirelessly to Make America, and the World, SAFE AGAIN.”

Republican Rep. Elise Stefanik of New York was originally set to serve as U.N. ambassador and even began to go through the Senate confirmation process. Her nomination was eventually rescinded after Speaker Mike Johnson brought up the House Republican’s historically narrow majority.

Another vacancy in the House GOP would shrink their majority even further, making it nearly impossible to pass meaningful legislation, especially during the ongoing reconciliation fight.

Notably, Waltz was nominated to a role requiring Senate confirmation. Given his responsibility in “SignalGate,” we can expect to see senators apply significant pressure on the nominee during his confirmation hearing.
