Nurses, heal thyself: A growing strain of TDS in hospitals

By Brian C. Joondeph, M.D. | Commentary, American Thinker A failure of medical ethics that seems to be spreading. Physician, heal thyself!” Jesus said to those gathered in the synagogue at Nazareth. The admonition was aimed at hypocrisy and moral blindness — a warning that those who presume authority must first examine their own conduct. Today, someone needs to repeat those words to health care professionals who have allowed Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) to corrode their ethics and professionalism. That warning applies just as much to nursing as it does to medicine. Nursing emerged as a modern profession in the mid-19th century under the leadership of Florence Nightingale. In 1893, the Nightingale Pledge codified the profession’s moral...

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna Signals GOP Will Go It Alone To Pass Funding Bills

By Zach LaChance | Washington Examiner House Republicans will attempt to pass the remaining spending bills and the two-week extension funding the Department of Homeland Security along party lines to end the partial government shutdown, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) revealed on Sunday night. Luna posted on X that GOP leaders would no longer be moving the legislation to the floor under suspension, which would fast-track passage of it but requires a two-thirds majority and, therefore, Democratic support. Instead, they will hope for a united caucus to pass the bills and fully reopen the government, a tricky prospect given Speaker Mike Johnson’s (R-LA) razor-thin majority. Johnson had already hinted at the change in strategy in multiple Su...

ODNI Says Federal Law Supports Gabbard Role in Georgia Election Raid

By Ben Whedon | Just the News The FBI raided the Georgia facility this week as part of a criminal probe linked to the 2020 election. The Office of the Director of National Intelligence has defended DNI Tulsi Gabbard's presence at a Fulton County election hub for an FBI raid, asserting that such operations fall entirely within her purview. "Director Gabbard recognizes that election security is essential for the integrity of our republic and our nation’s security," ODNI spokeswoman Oliva Coleman said in a statement. "As DNI, she has a vital role in identifying vulnerabilities in our critical infrastructure and protecting against exploitation." "We know through intelligence and public reporting that electronic voting systems have been and are vulnerable...

Congress Moves Closer to Cutting Off Taxpayer Funds to Taliban

By Jerry Dunleavy | Just the News Congress is now one step closer to ensuring U.S. taxpayer dollars don't end up in Taliban coffers. Momentum is building in Congress to formally ban U.S. taxpayer dollars from funding the Taliban, after the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on Thursday followed the House’s lead in passing the “No Taxpayer Dollars for Terrorists” bill. The bill – which “requires the Department of State to develop and implement a strategy to discourage foreign countries and nongovernmental organizations from providing financial or material support to the Taliban” – passed in the Senate committee on a 12-10 party-line vote, with all Republicans voting for the bill and all Democrats voting against it. The Taliban conducted a lightni...

Obama Implicated in Newly Released Russiagate Documents as Tulsi Gabbard Refers Evidence to DOJ

By Jim Hoft | Commentary, The Gateway Pundit Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, released a bombshell report with new and damning information on Wednesday. On Wednesday afternoon she shared with White House reporters at the daily briefing. The documents reveal it was Barack Obama and the FBI and CIA leadership at the time to sabotage President Trump before he even stepped into office. Obama did this knowing the entire story was manufactured and not a word of it was true. Gabbard released one House Intelligence Report that had been locked up in a CIA vault for almost a decade! It now is clear that Obama doctored the information to make it look like Putin and his buddy Donald Trump stole the election. There were four key elements in the reports about the fa...

CCP-Linked Activist Network Backs National Anti-ICE Strike

By Jerry Dunleavy | Just the News "No work, no school, no shopping." Anti-ICE efforts continue to ramp up in Minnesota, and a Chinese Communist Party-linked activist network is seeking to take the shutdown efforts nationwide. Acollection of far-left groups — led by a Communist activist network tied to CCP-linked millionaire Marxist Neville Roy Singham — is attempting to organize a nationwide anti-ICE school and business shutdown, with anti-Israel activist Linda Sarsour declaring that “we will bring this country to a halt.” The general strike effort, scheduled for this Friday, is an attempt to replicate a Minnesota-wide anti-ICE shutdown which occurred last Friday and which was organized by many of the same far-left groups — but now with designs to do so on a national...

Lawmakers Investigate Claims Wealthy Foreigners Bypassed Americans for Organ Transplants

By Greg Wehner | Fox News More than 100,000 Americans remain on transplant waiting lists while wealthy foreigners are allegedly allowed to skip the line. House lawmakers are launching a congressional investigation into two major hospital systems amid allegations they allowed wealthy foreign patients to bypass U.S. organ transplant waiting lists, as more than 100,000 Americans remain on those lists and thousands die each year waiting for life-saving organs. Reps. Jason Smith, R-Mo., and David Schweikert, R-Ariz., who lead the House Ways and Means Committee’s oversight effort, sent letters Tuesday to the University of Chicago Medical Center and Montefiore Medical Center in New York demanding records by Feb. 10 and warning they will issue subpoenas i...

Police Arrest 13 After Anti-ICE Protest Turns Destructive in Maple Grove, MN

By Adam Sabes | Fox News Several of the agitators arrested outside a Minnesota hotel where they believed Border Patrol Commander Gregory Bovino was staying have criminal records, with one arrestee openly embracing a "disrupt disturb resist" slogan on Instagram. The agitators were outside the SpringHill Suites by Marriott in Maple Grove, Minnesota, on Monday night where they had thought Bovino was staying. Arrests were made after authorities said the demonstration was "no longer considered peaceful," and declared it an unlawful assembly. Maple Grove police said its officers were responding to reports of a protest at the hotel, adding that it escalated when agitators allegedly began damaging property and throwing objects at officers. Several people ...

What the polls say about immigration that corporate media won’t acknowledge

By Brian C. Joondeph | Commentary, American Thinker If one relied solely on corporate media coverage, one might conclude that President Trump’s immigration enforcement efforts are wildly unpopular, resisted by an outraged public, and politically suicidal for Republicans.  Night after night, TV viewers see images of angry protesters, breathless commentary about “authoritarian crackdowns,” the familiar ‘Trump is Hitler/Nazi/fascist’ trope, and sympathetic portrayals of activists blocking Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The media narrative is clear: Americans are revolting against deportations. But polling tells a very different story. A recent Rasmussen Reports survey shows that nearly two-thirds of Americans support President Trump’s eff...

Green Energy Fell Short When Winter Storm Fern Tested the Grid

By Amanda Prestigiacomo | The Daily Wire The analysis backs up Trump's recent moves regarding wind energy. With America’s power grid stressed by a historic winter storm, expensive “green” energy sources like wind and solar proved unreliable. A new report on power use over the days of Winter Storm Fern, which brought both massive snow accumulation and damaging waves of ice, found that traditional power sources like natural gas, coal, and nuclear provided 80% of U.S. electricity during the storm’s most destructive days. Wind, by contrast, contributed single-digit percentages, and solar was largely unattainable during the coldest and darkest hours. Data from some 500,000 federal electricity records, analyzed by nonprofit Power the Future, show the ...
