Let me explain what is actually happening with the left calling the current Supreme Court "rogue." I have four kids. When one of them does their chores, I give them a piece of candy. When my three-year-old sees that and loses his mind screaming "IT'S NOT FAIR," he is not making a legal argument. He is making a FEELINGS argument. He does not care about the chores. He just wants the candy. That is Quinn's Law #26 in a Halloween costume: liberals love the courts UNTIL the decision does not go their way. Here is something the dim bulbs on the left conveniently forget. Republican-appointed justices have disappointed conservatives REPEATEDLY. Gorsuch — TRUMP'S OWN PICK — sided with liberals on LGBTQ employment cases. Roberts saved the ACA. TWICE. Let that land. Sandra Day O'Connor preserved Roe in 1992. Reagan appointee. That happens because those justices are actually doing their job: applying the law to the text, NOT reverse-engineering the outcome they want. When have you EVER seen a Democrat-appointed justice deliver a ruling that disappointed Democrats? I'll wait. That silence you hear? That is not a coincidence. That is the tell. A court that never surprises you is not a court. It is a PR department with gavels. The left has that. They built it on purpose. And NOW — because they do not have it at the Supreme Court level — the whole institution is suddenly "illegitimate." FDR tried this in 1937. His OWN PARTY killed the court-packing scheme in committee. They called it what it was. Let that sink in: even Democrats in 1937 recognized naked power grabs when they saw them. The left does not want a Supreme Court. They want a super-legislature with lifetime tenure that ratifies whatever Congress failed to deliver. The Constitution is just an obstacle between them and what they want. And when that obstacle holds, they call it rogue. My three-year-old also calls things unfair when I enforce bedtime. He is three. What is their excuse? But what do I know — I am only a science teacher who actually read the Federalist Papers, including No. 78, where Hamilton called the judiciary "the least dangerous branch," not the most convenient one. @catturd2 @GuntherEagleman @JoJoFromJerz #MAGA #Trump #SCOTUS

This AI just exposed the BIGGEST legal insider trading operation in America. A platform called GovGreed built a seven-layer machine learning system that cross-references every stock trade disclosed by every sitting politician against the bills their committees control, the campaign donations they receive, and the companies their votes directly impact. It scored all 540 politicians currently in Congress. And the numbers are crazy: 56% of every stock purchase made by Congress in the last 16 months was on a stock directly affected by a bill the buyer later voted on. That is 6,170 out of 11,016 total purchases. More than HALF of all congressional stock buys are on companies whose fate that same politician is about to decide. 343 of 540 Congress members actively trade stocks while holding access to nonpublic legislative information. That is 63.8% of the entire legislature making market bets with an informational edge that would put any hedge fund manager in prison. The AI identified 752 active "Triple Signals" in the current Congress. A Triple Signal fires when three conditions line up at once: The politician sits on the committee controlling a bill, they traded stock in a company affected by that bill, AND they received campaign contributions from that same industry. Bills carrying these insider indicators pass at 5.4 TIMES the normal rate. Now look at the individual leaderboard: - Nancy Pelosi's estimated portfolio sits at $194 million with a Greediness score of 98.1 out of 100 - Ro Khanna made 13,231 trades across 800 different tickers - Michael McCaul made 32,302 trades and filed 6,670 of them late - Thomas Suozzi filed 86.4% of his trades late with an average delay of 396 days, meaning his disclosures landed over a YEAR after he made the trade And then there is Lisa McClain, the fourth-ranking Republican in the House. She has made 1,443 trades in three years, more than 98% of all politicians tracked. She violated the STOCK Act twice in a single year, disclosing up to $900,000 in trades months after the legal deadline. Her husband bought up to $250,000 in Elon Musk's xAI, which quietly converted into SpaceX equity before last Friday's $2 trillion IPO. The penalty for all of this? A $200 fine. The number of Congress members ever prosecuted under the STOCK Act since it passed in 2012? Zero. And the cruelest part is this: A bill to ban congressional stock trading was introduced in January 2026. It has bipartisan support. Over 80% of American voters want it passed. But Congress is sitting on it, because the people who would have to vote yes are the same people making millions from the system staying exactly the way it is. They write the insider trading laws, they exempt themselves from enforcement, they trade on the information those laws generate, and when they get caught, they pay a fine that is basically nothing. The AI didn't discover anything Congress was hiding. It just organized what was already public into a pattern so obvious that nobody can pretend it isn't there anymore.

🚨Here’s something VERY important to remember no matter what happens with the budget: Spanberger & Democrats were more than three months late because their #1 priority was a gerrymandering power grab and their #2 priority was a bunch of terrible bills that either make life more expensive or trample our freedoms. The most likely outcome is that some sort of budget deal will be reached, avoiding a shutdown. When that happens, Democrats will be patting themselves on the back. But never forget that it NEVER should’ve come to this in the first place. Even if they passed a budget today, it would be a massive indictment on their totally incompetent leadership. Democrats showed you what they really care about, and it sure as hell isn’t “affordability” or whatever other crap they spewed during their campaigns last year.

💥@TheJusticeDept sues VA, Attorney General Jay 2 Bullets Jones, & Soros-backed Steve Descano over mask ban for federal officers, calling it "an illegal attempt to regulate the federal government" that "threatens the safety of federal officers who have faced...harassment, doxing, and even violence" justice.gov/opa/pr/justice-d…

🚨FRESH LINK & COMMENT ON THE DOJ LAWSUIT: Justice Department Files Complaint Challenging Virginia Mask Ban and Identification Requirements for Federal Officers ✍️FIRST, SINCERE QUESTIONS from VNV: Has Democrat St. Sen. Saddam Salim, the sponsor of both THIS unconstitutional law & the new law violating our 2nd Amendment rights, even READ the entire U.S. Constitution that he swore an oath to uphold? Does he UNDERSTAND it? Does he UNDERSTAND the Supremacy Clause? 🔥OR do he & his fellow Democrats once again subscribe to the old, discredited Virginia "Byrd Democrat" doctrine of Nullification?🔥Their actions say they do. 🚨Here's an amusing quote from the U.S. DOJ: "Governor Spanberger cannot tell Federal officers how to do their job,” said Associate Attorney General Stanley Woodward. "And she certainly cannot prohibit them from ensuring their own safety in conducting Federal law enforcement operations. Our suit today stops those unconstitutional efforts." LINK to the DOJ LAWSUIT so that you can read it: justice.gov/ag/media/1445561… MORE IN THE PRESS RELEASE:🔽
