Ninth Circuit Court Rules for Trump

Ninth Circuit Blocks Reinstatement of Court-Appointed Seattle US Attorney Fired by President Trump

Here’s a question no serious constitutional scholar should ever have to entertain: Does the President of the United States get to decide who serves in his own executive branch?

For more than two centuries, the answer was so obvious nobody bothered to debate it. The President nominates U.S. Attorneys, the Senate confirms them, and they serve at the pleasure of the chief executive. That bedrock arrangement survived every political storm this country has weathered – right up until a single federal judge in Washington state decided he knew better.

An Obama-appointed district judge recently ordered the Trump administration to reinstate a Democrat-connected attorney the President had already fired. Not just reinstate him – restore his back pay, hand him the keys to the office, and grant him full authority over federal prosecutions in Western Washington. 

The judge then refused to pause his own ruling while the government appealed, essentially daring the administration to do something about it. Somebody did.

From The Post Millennial:
The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals on Sunday temporarily blocked a federal judge’s order that would have reinstated a Seattle US attorney fired by President Donald Trump.

The appeals court granted the Trump administration an administrative stay in the case involving Roger Rogoff, who was appointed US Attorney for the Western District of Washington by federal judges in July.

The Ninth Circuit – not exactly a courthouse conservatives circle on their calendars with hope – stepped in and froze the lower court’s order. Credit where it’s due. But a temporary freeze is just that: temporary. The appeals court needs to go further and make this block permanent.

Seattle Police Chief Fired

Asked to resign--he said "NO." He was then fired.

Seattle mayor fires police chief after mass shooting failures, then faces backlash from racial justice groups

Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson fired Police Chief Shon Barnes after a botched response to a deadly food festival shooting, and now faces organized protests from civil rights organizations that call the move racially motivated.

Barnes, 55, was out of town at a law enforcement conference in Dallas when gunfire tore through the Bite of Seattle food festival on a Sunday evening, killing three people and wounding four others, including a two-year-old boy.

The Seattle Police Department then waited roughly five hours before holding its first public briefing, issued statements containing factual errors, and never activated AlertSeattle, the city's emergency notification system, to warn residents that at least one armed suspect remained at large.

By Wednesday evening, Wilson had seen enough. Fox News reported that the mayor called Barnes into a meeting and asked him to resign. He refused. She fired him on the spot, just hours after the two had stood side by side at a silent vigil for the shooting victims.

By Thursday, a coalition of racial justice organizations, the NAACP, the Urban League of Metropolitan Seattle, Byrd Barr Place, and Community Passageways, had organized a rally at city hall to protest the dismissal. Speakers cast Barnes's firing in explicitly racial terms.

Pam Bondi Fired

Pam Bondi Out as Attorney General

President Donald Trump confirmed Thursday that Pam Bondi is out as attorney general.

According to Newsmax's Ed Henry, the president’s growing frustration that Bondi had not moved quickly enough to pursue indictments against Democrats over alleged “lawfare” contributed to her ouster.

Trump said Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche will serve as her replacement for now.

"Pam Bondi is a Great American Patriot and a loyal friend, who faithfully served as my Attorney General over the past year. Pam did a tremendous job overseeing a massive crackdown in Crime across our Country, with Murders plummeting to their lowest level since 1900," Trump said in a statement on Truth Social.

"We love Pam, and she will be transitioning to a much needed and important new job in the private sector, to be announced at a date in the near future, and our Deputy Attorney General, and a very talented and respected Legal Mind, Todd Blanche, will step in to serve as Acting Attorney General," Trump concluded.

Standing by your principles

Pennsylvania School Bus Driver Quits After Being Told to Remove MAGA Hat

State Senator Defends Decision

There are moments when standing your ground doesn’t look like much from the outside. No cameras, no crowds—just a quiet decision made when no one’s watching.

For decades, conservatives across this country have faced a familiar pressure: tone it down, keep it to yourself, don’t make waves. The message is always the same; your values are welcome, just not here. Not now, and not out loud.

In Littlestown, Pennsylvania, a retired police officer and now working as a school bus driver decided he was done playing that game.

Dave Bonhoff spent his mornings behind the wheel of a school bus, ferrying kids through the rural roads of Adams County. The children knew him as Mr. Dave. By all accounts, they had a good thing going, but when a student reportedly complained about the red hat Bonhoff wore—a hat bearing four simple words—everything changed.

His employer, Krise Transportation, relayed the message: the school district didn’t want him wearing his Make America Great Again hat anymore. His supervisor even offered to buy him an American flag hat as a compromise. You know, something less offensive than wanting your country to succeed.

Instead he said, "nope," and walked away from the job.

Vile Delivery Nurse fired at Baptist Health Boca Hospital

Florida Attorney General Seeks Nurse’s License Revocation Over Vile TikTok Targeting Pregnant Karoline Leavitt

Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier called for revoking a Boca Raton labor and delivery nurse’s license after a viral TikTok targeted White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt.

The call followed a video in which the nurse wished severe childbirth injuries on Leavitt, prompting termination by her employer in Florida.

The nurse was identified as Alexis “Lexie” Lawler in prior reports. The video showed Lawler using explicit language while speaking about Leavitt.

Lawler was fired from Baptist Health Boca Raton Regional Hospital after the video circulated. Baptist Health confirmed the termination.

Immigration Judges Fired

Trump Fires 8 NYC Immigration Judges

The Trump administration appeared to be unmoved by a discrimination suit filed Monday by an Ohio judge when later that day it let go eight immigration judges in Manhattan.

The judges who worked out of 26 Federal Plaza in lower Manhattan were terminated, according to an official in the National Association of Immigration Judges.

Earlier Monday, Tania Nemer sued the Justice Department on the grounds she was terminated from her post as an Ohio immigration judge because of her gender, a citizen of Lebanon and was a Democratic candidate for local office.

About 200 immigration judges have resigned or been let go as part of the Department of Government Efficiency’s effort to trim inefficiencies and spending by encouraging federal employees to leave their jobs. Roughly 100 of those were fired, the NAIJ official said.

The judges were terminated despite a backlog of 3.4 million immigration cases in the federal system, according to Syracuse University’s TRAC Reports.

The War Department said in September it planned to send 600 military lawyers to serve temporarily as immigration judges — but so far only 25 have gone through the required training and have begun hearing cases, the NAIJ official said.

Just 11 new permanent judges have been installed, despite Congress creating 800 federal immigration judiciary jobs as part of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

Whistleblower Fired At Campbell's Co.

Campbell's VP Trashes Own Food As "Sht For F*king Poor People"

A senior executive at The Campbell’s Co. was allegedly recorded in an explosive tirade trashing the company’s own food as “sh*t for f**king poor people.” The shocking recording, obtained by HuffPost, exposes the disdain the corporate elite have for their working-class consumers.

The voice identified as Vice President Martin Bally said in the recording, “If you look at our f**king pantry, we have sh*t for f**king poor people, right? We have sh*t that’s for poor people. Who buys our shi*t?” This is how corporate America views the people who keep them in business.

Bally, whose LinkedIn lists him as a chief information security officer, didn’t stop there. He allegedly degraded a key ingredient in chicken noodle soup, saying, “I don’t want to eat a f**king piece of chicken that came from a 3D printer.” He insulted the meal’s main protein as “bioengineered meat.”

The executive, who works in IT and has nothing to do with food production, was also allegedly recorded making ugly racist comments about Indian workers. He ranted about cybersecurity in the workplace, saying, “F*** Indians don’t know a f**king thing. Like they couldn’t think for their f**king selves.”

The lawsuit, filed by former cybersecurity analyst Robert Garza, also alleges that Bally admitted to showing up to work under the influence of marijuana. Garza claims he was “shocked” and “appalled” by the VP’s behavior and reported the incident to his manager in January. He was abruptly fired.

2 educators fired for opposing transgender advocacy in schools

'Free to express opinions'

Oregon district pays $650,000 to settle with educators who objected to trans lessons. Schools 'can't retaliate against speech simply because they disagree with what's said.'

An Oregon school district has agreed to pay $650,000 to settle with two educators who were punished, then fired, for speaking out against the injurious transgender agenda the district was adopting.

The trans ideology as promoted by Joe Biden and his administration for years includes giving chemicals to children to delay puberty, then doing mutilating body surgeries on the child.

"Educators are free to express opinions on fundamental issues of public concern—like gender identity education policy—that implicate the freedoms of teachers, parents, and students," said Mathew Hoffman, of the ADF, which represented the teachers along with the Pacific Justice Institute.

Foreign Service Officer fired for romance with Joy Xho, a possible CCP spy

U.S. Foreign Service Officer fired

Secretary of State Marco Rubio, with President Trump’s full backing, just FIRED a U.S. Foreign Service Officer caught red-handed concealing a secret romance with the daughter of a top Chinese Communist Party official.

This isn’t just any dismissal—it’s the first in American history, enforced under Executive Order 14211 and the President’s ironclad Article II authority.

You see, it all started with James O'Keefe's OMG.

Their undercover team at OMG cornered Daniel Choi on hidden camera, where he spilled the beans: "I deprived my government for love." He admitted hiding his relationship with Joy Xho, daughter of a senior CCP leader, possibly a provincial or federal Minister of Education.

Choi even confessed he never filed the required security disclosure and shrugged off the risk: "She could have been a spy, even. I don't really know."

FEMA Official Terminated After Hidden Camera Captures Him Laughing About Charlie Kirk Assassination

When tragedy strikes, the masks come off — and what lies beneath can be more horrifying than the tragedy itself.

In the wake of unspeakable violence, most Americans instinctively reach for unity, prayer, and healing. But for some, the veneer of professionalism crumbles to reveal something far darker lurking beneath.

The assassination of Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University shocked the nation, leaving his young widow Erika and their children to face an unimaginable future. While millions mourned the loss of a passionate voice for conservative values, something sinister was brewing in the shadows of our federal bureaucracy and in our society…

The revelations began trickling out through social media posts and leaked conversations. Teachers, corporate employees, even military service members – all caught celebrating the murder of a father and husband.

But nothing prepared Americans for what investigative journalist James O’Keefe would uncover at the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

Sean C. Kelly, a FEMA Section Chief whose salary comes from taxpayer dollars, was caught on hidden camera sharing his revolting reaction to Kirk’s assassination. The federal official didn’t just express political disagreement or even satisfaction – he laughed about murder (via Breitbart)

Florida Whistleblower fired and then files a lawsuit

Worker who leaked plans to build golf courses in Florida parks files whistleblower suit

Gaddis, who was a consultant in DEP's Office of Park Planning, says he was directed to draw up “secret maps” to build golf courses, hotels and pickleball courts in nine parks. Park staffers were ordered not to talk to any colleagues about the proposals, which in Gaddis' view amounted to destroying “globally significant” environments.

The experience felt like “mapping out a future crime scene,” according to the lawsuit, which was filed in Leon County.

Gaddis copied documents onto a flash drive and shared it with an unnamed intermediary, the lawsuit says, and the next day the Tampa Bay Times wrote about the plans.

Gaddis says he was called into a meeting by a supervisor and asked if he shared the documents, which he admitted to. He was put on administrative leave and later fired, and the suit says that amounted to disparate treatment and retaliation.

Greenland Commander got political and did not respect her boss

U.S. Space Force Commander in Greenland Relieved of Duties Following Email Incident

She forgot protocol and went political

Col. Susannah Meyers, once the commanding officer of the 821st Space Base Group in Greenland, has been dismissed from her role.

According to Fox News, Her email contradicting Vice President JD Vance's statements led to a statement of mistrust from the Pentagon.

Meyers, who had been stationed at Pituffik, Greenland, sent an email to her personnel shortly after Vance’s pointed remarks on Denmark's handling of Greenlandic issues. In her March 31 email, she expressed a perspective that differed from the vice president’s, suggesting that the base staff did not share his views.

Meyers alluded to the challenges and reflections triggered by the vice president’s visit, stating, “I have spent the weekend thinking about Friday's visit — the actions taken, the words spoken, and how it must have affected each of you.”

This introspection, however, led to higher-ups questioning her capability to maintain an apolitical stance as required in her role.

Three Fired at NSC

President Trump Fires at Least Three “Neocon” National Security Staffers After Laura Loomer Oval Office Meeting

A “neocon” bloodbath occurred at the National Security Council on Thursday, and we may have conservative journalist Laura Loomer to thank for this.

As CNN reported, President Trump fired at least three National Security Council staffers at the agency. The terminations occurred one day after Loomer visited the Oval Office and met with the president.

During Loomer’s meeting with Trump, CNN reported she asked Trump to fire several National Security Council staff members, including his principal deputy national security adviser, Alex Wong. Axios notes she was livid that multiple “neocons” had made it through the vetting process and obtained jobs in the administration.

Principal Deputy National Security Adviser Alex Wong was not among those who had been dismissed on Wednesday. However, one White House official speculated to CNN Thursday that Wong could be out as soon as today, though a final decision remains to be seen.

Wong was one of the advisers specifically targeted by Loomer, who publicly questioned his loyalty to Trump and criticized him privately as a “Never Trumper.”

Trump says he will fire Jack Smith

Trump Challenges Jack Smith Appointment as Special Counsel

Trump is once again on the attack against Special Counsel Jack Smith.

Trump’s attorneys are already challenging Jack Smith’s appointment as unconstitutional.

The former president added more fuel to the fire saying that he would fire Smith “within two seconds” if he gets elected as president. Can He Do This.

First, let’s look at the filing by Trump’s attorneys, who are claiming that Merrick Garland did not have the power to appoint Jack Smith.

If that is true, the special counsel appointments of the last five decades, including William Barr's appointment of John Durham, will all be nullified.

This very issue was heavily litigated in the 1970s, and rules for the appointment of a special counsel by the attorney general were clearly outlined in 28 CFR § 600.1.

Trump will deliver swift action against Jack Smith upon taking office

Trump Promises Rapid Dismissal of Special Counsel If Re-Elected

Former President Donald Trump has stirred controversy ahead of the election by promising swift action against Special Counsel Jack Smith.

According to Alternet, Trump declared his intention to dismiss Jack Smith, the special counsel currently prosecuting him, should he return to power.

In a recent podcast conversation with Hugh Hewitt, Trump conveyed his resolve to remove Smith immediately upon reclaiming the presidency. The Washington Post highlighted this statement in its coverage of the interview.

Trump denigrated Smith during the interview, labeling him as "corrupted," which Trump sees as justification for the intended dismissal. Nonetheless, actual authority to discharge a special counsel lies with the Attorney General, not the president.

Despite legal norms, Trump appeared unfazed, expressing confidence in his ability to maneuver the situation. "Oh, it’s so easy. It’s so easy," he affirmed regarding the removal of Smith.
