Senator Elizabeth Warren asked Robert F Kennedy Jr. to “stop enriching yourself” by litigating against big pharma. Not coincidentally, she enriches herself by being supported by big pharma, to the tune of $1.6 million at least.

RFK Jr. earned legal fees from successfully suing pharmaceutical companies for hurting people. That experience has given him a unique insight in the American health industry but, according to Warren and The Wall Street Journal, that should be disqualifying.

“You’re asking me not to sue pharmaceutical companies and I am not going to agree to that,” he said.

“No I am not,” she yelled but clearly she wants that.

Why, you might ask, should a member of Congress want to protect an industry from litigation? An industry that she profits from? That’s queer, right?

On Wednesday, the Trump administration released this executive order to “combat anti-semitism.”

“It shall be the policy of the United States to combat anti-Semitism vigorously, using all available and appropriate legal tools, to prosecute, remove, or otherwise hold to account the perpetrators of unlawful anti-Semitic harassment and violence,” the order says.

Isn’t harassment and violence illegal, no matter who it is against? Why is this needed for a specific group of people? It says that “Jewish students have faced an unrelenting barrage of discrimination; denial of access to campus common areas and facilities, including libraries and classrooms; and intimidation, harassment, and physical threats and assault.” Again, those things should be illegal, no matter what race the victim.

This comes in the same day that newly-sworn in Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth made it his priority in his second day on the job to hold a call with Israeli Minister of Defense Israel Katz. He said that the call was “to reaffirm the unbreakable bond between the United States and Israel. I emphasized that, under President Trump’s leadership, the United States supports Israel’s security 100%.” He continued, “I reiterated that the United States is committed to deepening the bilateral security relationship to enhance Israel’s ability to address regional threats and ensure Israel has the capabilities it needs. Minister Katz and I will remain in close contact moving forward.

President Trump said that the U.S. will get Guantanamo Bay ready to hold the “worst criminal illegal aliens threatening the American people. Some of them are so bad we don’t even trust the countries to hold them because we don’t want them coming back so we’re going to send them out to Guantanamo.”

He said that he would sign “an executive order to instruct the Departments of Defense and Homeland Security to begin preparing the 30,000 person migrant facility at Guantanamo Bay.” He did indeed sign this order for just that.

The order doesn’t mention the number of migrants but Guantanamo Bay does not hold 30,000 people. It was built to hold 800 and has never held more than 720 people. How in the world could it hold so many more people? Perhaps the President was embellishing in order to scare migrants into self deporting?

Guantanamo has a reputation for violating international human rights standards. Even if these are the worst of the worst, the debate over waterboarding was a fairly broad consensus that no one wants to see that happening again.

A military Black Hawk helicopter collided with an American Airlines passenger plane over the Potomac River near Reagan National Airport. The plane had 60 passengers and four crew members. The helicopter had three people aboard. Washington D.C. authorities say that they now expect no survivors and the scene is now a recovery scene.

The plane was American Eagle flight 5342 traveling to Washington, D.C. from Wichita, Kansas. American Airlines has this sitededicated to further information.

According to reports, the control tower saw this coming and asked the helicopter: “Do you have the CRJ in sight?” CRJ is the Bombardier CRJ700 Regional Jet.

The crash happened at night but that hardly explains how this happened. Some reports show that the helicopter was “flying dark,” meaning it had its transponder off. In a crowded civilian airspace?

The Associated Press reports this:

“A few minutes before landing, air traffic controllers asked the arriving commercial jet if it could land on the shorter Runway 33 at Reagan National and the pilots said they were able. Controllers then cleared the plane to land on Runway 33. Flight tracking sites showed the plane adjust its approach to the new runway.

Less than 30 seconds before the crash, an air traffic controller asks the helicopter if it has the arriving plane in sight. The controller makes another radio call to the helicopter moments later: “PAT 25 pass behind the CRJ.” Seconds after that the two aircraft collide.”

The U.S. Army confirmed that the helicopter was from the U.S. Army and said that the three soldiers were aboard a training flight.

Air traffic control diverted all takeoffs and landings on Wednesday night and the airport was closed. One air traffic control transmission heard the tower tell a plane in the air that the airport was shutting down and the pilot replied, “Yeah. We witnessed the whole thing.”

The White House released this statement from the President Wednesday night. President Trump released this post on his own Truth Social page indicating that he has lingering questions and wants answers too.

Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders has proposed a way to keep Medicaid from freeloaders. She has asked the Federal Government to approve a Medicaid work requirement.

She explains it thus: “The requirement is simple: If you want to receive free health care, paid for by your fellow taxpayer, able-bodied, working age adults have to work, go to school, volunteer, or be home to take care of their kids. 220,000 able-bodied, working age adults in Arkansas receive free health care courtesy of the Arkansas taxpayer. It costs us more than $2.2 billion each year and growing. Of those recipients, estimates show that nearly 90,000 have no job. Most Arkansas work hard to pay for their health insurance but many of these healthy adults don’t work at all and receive it for free. That’s not how the system should work.”

She says that Arkansas businesses have a worker shortage and that the state should no longer “pay people to sit on the sidelines.”

Arkansas tried this during the first Trump administration but it was held up in court so Huckabee Sanders is trying again.

Could this actually work to encourage a strong workforce in Arkansas? And would it lower tax rates for the working people of the state? It’s a great idea, we will watch it with keen interest!

The Trump administration has ordered a full review of sex change procedures for minors. The press calls this a “ban on gender affirming care.” It’s not that. It is a review of the procedures that are currently being done to minors and a removal of federal funding for it.

Oddly, it defines minors as anyone under the age of 19.

The order directs the Secretary of Health and Human Services to review the current literature “on best practices for promoting the health of children who assert gender dysphoria, rapid-onset gender dysphoria, or other identity-based confusion.” HHS is then directed to share that data far and wide – something trans advocates do not want because the data on gender transition for minors is damning.

Rapid-onset gender dysphoria is a term trans advocates REALLY object to. It refers to young girls who suddenly say that they are trans in their early teens after copious exposure to social media. Advocates say that is not a thing, these kids have always known since birth. That is nonsense. Rapid-onset gender dysphoria is a well-documented phenomenon.

The order says that the federal government should not “fund, sponsor, promote, assist, or support the so-called ‘transition’ of a child from one sex to another, and it will rigorously enforce all laws that prohibit or limit these destructive and life-altering procedures.”

To this end, he has ordered the Attorney General to enforce laws against female mutilation and pursue the legality of certain state’s sanctuary laws.

The order does not say a person cannot have a sex change operation on their own private dime after they turn 19. They could but the doctors who perform these procedures on minors could be under a lot of scrutiny and risk now. Banana Bubblegum

The Trump administration through the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) ordered a pause on federal funding to grants and loans. The pause was supposed to go into effect on Tuesday afternoon but a federal judge put a pause on that pause because several states sued to stop it.

Queue an online media freak out about how kids won’t get school lunches or homeless shelters won’t have food. That’s not true.

The president ordered a review of funding to non-government organizations (NGOs), foreign governments and large discretionary contracts. The order excludes direct aid and benefit programs like SNAP and it also makes it clear that this will not affect Medicaid or Social Security. The new White House launched an X account to handle all of this misreporting and clarification on what is and is not supposed to be paused can be found here.

Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy and Homeland Security Advisor Stephen Miller calls the media fear about the pause the “first dumb media hoax of 2025.” It doesn’t help that the Medicaid website portal had an outage in the same day that this pause was announced. People justifiably freaked out that they would lose this benefit as a part of the spending pause. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt acknowledged the outage and “confirmed no payments have been affected — they are still being processed and sent.”

The federal judge’s pause only applies to existing programs, meaning they will still be funded. No new programs can be put into place, as directed by that pause.

President Trump’s new Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt started her first press briefing by telling Americans what that whole drone swarm thing was about last year.

“I do have news directly from the president of the United States that was just shared with me in the Oval Office, from President Trump directly, an update on the New Jersey drones,” she said. “After research and study, the drones that were flying over New Jersey in large numbers were authorized to be flown by the FAA for research and various other reasons. Many of these drones were also hobbyists, recreational and private individuals that enjoy flying drones. In time, it got worse due to curiosity. This was not the enemy.”

Wait what? If the FAA knew what this was, why in the WORLD wouldn’t they have told us so under President Biden?? Why did they keep this from us? Why were we told it was from an Iranian mothership by Congressional members!?

On Inauguration Day, President Trump promised to look into the drones and eight days later he delivered an answer.
