Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent told “Sunday Morning Futures” host Maria Bartiromo on Sunday that revenue from tariffs would not drop, despite the Supreme Court’s ruling against the authority President Donald Trump’ invoked to levy his “Liberation Day” tariffs.

The high court decided Trump exceeded his powers under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) in a 6-3 ruling issued Friday. Bartiromo questioned Bessent about claims made Friday by the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget that the deficit would increase due to the loss of revenue.

“Yes, so, Maria, let’s take a step back here. And Maya MacGuineas should be ashamed, and they should take the word ‘responsible’ out of her organization’s name,” Bessent responded. “Everything she told you was completely irresponsible and, look, where were they when the Biden administration blew out the deficit that we had a fiscal contraction last year? So she should be ashamed.”

“So let me tell you what’s going to happen first, this ruling was a very narrow ruling in terms of the president’s ability to use IEEPA to collect revenues. The Supreme Court said the president can put in a full embargo, but he cannot collect one dollar,” Bessent continued.

It’s the largest incident of liquid pollution in American history, with reports stating that roughly 250-million gallons of raw sewage has poured from the Washington, D.C., sewer system into the Potomac River over the last month. This biohazard tide infects much of the Chesapeake Bay, and will eventually make its way along the eastern seaboard via the Atlantic Ocean. Astute observers in times past noted how it seems as if the beltway deliberately craps on Americans. As it turns out…

The left promised that Canada’s Eunathasia program was not a slippery slope. It turns out, however, that it is the slipperiest of slopes in the history of slopes.

First, they said MAiD would be reserved for the terminally ill. Then, they expanded it for mental illness. Now, they are mulling whether or not children should be included in this evil state-sanctioned suicide. Worse of all, this may or may not be done with parental consent.

According to Life News:

A report by the Special Joint Committee on Medical Assistance in Dying (AMAD) was tabled in the House of Commons on February 15 calling for a drastic expansion of euthanasia (MAiD) in Canada. Among other recommendations, the report recommends that euthanasia be expanded to include children “mature minors.”

The New York City Police Department released photos of two people wanted in Monday’s mob attack on cops amid a snowball fight, which reportedly caused multiple injuries to officers.

The NYPD Facebook post indicates that “two uniformed police officers were inside Washington Square Park when two individuals intentionally struck the officers multiple times with snow and ice causing injury to their head, neck, and face. Anyone with information is asked to contact @NYPDTips or 800-577-TIPS.”

Democrats held their applause during several moments of President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address Tuesday night, including when Trump promised to ensure justice for Iryna Zarutska, the slain Ukrainian refugee. 

Anna Zarutska, Iryna Zarutska’s mother, was teary-eyed as Trump recalled her daughter’s final moments. 

“He was arrested over a dozen times and was released through no cash bail. Stood up and viciously slashed a knife through her neck and body. No one will ever forget — there were people on that train — no one will ever forget the expression of terror on Iryna’s face as she looked up at her attacker in the last seconds of her life. She died instantly,” said Trump, referring to Decarlos Dejuan Brown, Jr., the man accused of stabbing Iryna Zarutska to death in August 2025. Brown has been indicted by a federal grand jury and faces one count of violence against a railroad carrier and mass transportation system resulting in death, according to the Department of Justice (DOJ).

High Democratic turnout in Texas’s Senate primary is driving record early voting numbers, giving hope to Democrats in the reliably red state.

Though primary turnout is usually lower in nonpresidential election years, the 2026 primary has drawn unusually close attention, largely due to the race between state Rep. James Talarico and Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX). In the first seven days of primary voting, a record 1,259,356 votes were cast — 665,664 for Democrats and 593,692 for Republicans, according to unofficial data from the Texas secretary of state, obtained by the Texas Tribune.

The hideous thug Rep. Ilhan Omar heckled at President Trump during his SOTU speech. President Trump is 100 percent correct. Rep Ilhan Omar is garbage. As is the Keffiyeh clad Rep. Rashida Tlaib, who whore a ‘Fuck Ice’ pin at the speech.

What  lowlifes. How are these seditious criminals still in this country?

Without the illegal vote, the jihad caucus would never have been elected.

She married her brother. Deport her.

“For weeks, social media was flooded with these wonderful patriots. Videos of unicyclers, naked bike riders, the guy in the chicken suit, and a whole lot of frogs,” he said.

At an event held by Democrat lawmakers on Tuesday night in protest of the State of the Union, Senator Ron Wyden of Oregon was heard praising the anti-ICE “patriots” of Portland that swarmed the city’s ICE facility after Trump’s announcement that he was deploying troops to protect it.

“The day we heard Trump was deploying troops to Portland, we rushed over to the ICE facility because, based on Trump’s Truth Social, we expected to just see a violent mob. But apparently, one guy in a chicken costume is what Trump considers a war zone.”

“For weeks, social media was flooded with these wonderful patriots. Videos of unicyclers, naked bike riders, the guy in the chicken suit, and a whole lot of frogs,” he added, with people dressed in inflatable frog costumes flanking him on stage.

“No war zone to be found. Friends, when Donald Trump sent his agents to the streets of Portland, we took on authoritarianism ’cause we had the frogs and we won,” he said.

Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) reacted angrily during President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address after he spotlighted massive fraud schemes in Minnesota and announced a new federal “war on fraud.”

“When it comes to the corruption that has been plundering America, there is no more stunning example than what’s been happening in Minnesota,” President Trump said.

The president was referring to a series of high-profile public welfare fraud cases in the state, including Somali-led schemes tied to federal pandemic relief programs.

CBS News’ Major Garrett reported that the GOP gameplan going into the State of the Union was to, and I quote, “Make sure Americans after this speech had a sense that the opposition party was off the rails [and] crazy.” While Trump was doing that, the opposition party was counter-programming dressed as animals and chanting “F*ck ICE.” Why? Because the opposition party is super serious people who demand you take them super seriously.

SYDNEY: Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said on Wednesday (Feb 25) that he did not take his security for granted, after he was evacuated from his residence for several hours following an alleged bomb threat.

Albanese was evacuated from his residence in Canberra late on Tuesday following a security threat, and returned a few hours later after nothing suspicious was found.

Police said there was no ongoing threat.

“I think it’s just a reminder, take every opportunity to tell people, turn the heat down for goodness sake,” Albanese said at an event in Melbourne on Wednesday.

Israeli settlers vandalized a mosque in the Israeli-occupied West Bank early Monday, spray-painting offensive phrases and setting a fire, according to the Palestinian Authority’s Ministry of Religious Affairs.

Worshippers arriving for the day’s first prayers found the damage and a smoldering fire that spewed black smoke across the entrance of the Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq Mosque in the town of Tell, near Nablus, and stained the ornate doorway.

“I was shocked when I opened the door,” said Munir Ramdan, who lives nearby. “The fire had been burning here in the area, the glass was broken here and the door was broken.”

Agentic AI is quickly moving from demo to deployment inside the Department of Defense. But what does it actually mean to give AI “agency” — and what does it take to make those systems work on real military networks?

In this episode, Ryan sits down with Ben Van Roo, co-founder and CEO of Legion Intelligence, Jags Kandasamy, co-founder and CEO of Latent AI, and Aaron Brown, co-founder and CEO of Lumbra AI, to discuss why the real challenge is not just building smart models but getting AI agents to run on military networks and inside operational workflows. They cover deploying agents in denied environments, compressing models for the edge, orchestrating them across stovepiped systems, and the Pentagon’s struggle to scale and buy these tools fast enough to matter.

What may not be as well known is that in Canada’s smallest province, the picturesque Prince Edward Island (PEI), the CCP has been accused of using Buddhist monasteries as money laundering fronts to the tune of half a billion dollars.

Indeed, a report from late last year noted how Buddhist monks and nuns from a group called Bliss and Wisdom showed recent tax filings with about $500 million in assets.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has unveiled his new budget — and it’s every bit as ridiculous as BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales anticipated.

“On another episode of ‘I told you so,’ it took less than two months for New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani to turn, I think, into a Batman villain,” Gonzales jokes.

“You guys are going to be shocked to hear this. You’re going to be shocked to hear all of these promises of free everything, free child schools, free child care, free schools, free buses, all the free s**t, doesn’t have enough money to pay for all of the free,” she explains.

“So he’s announced that he’s basically taking the entire city hostage, and if the state government doesn’t give into his demands and implement his billionaire tax, he’s going to make you pay,” she continues.

“For those who have watched budget after budget, it is tempting to assume that we are engaging in the same dance as our predecessors. Let me assure you, nothing about this is typical. That’s why our solutions won’t be either. There are two paths to bridge this gap. The first is the most sustainable and the fairest path,” Mamdani explained at New York City Hall.

A student believed to be part of an anti-ICE walkout in West Palm Beach, Florida, was hit by a car Monday and suffered non-life-threatening injuries.

Police said officers responded to the incident around 12:30 p.m. near the South Wind Plaza on North Military Trail, CBS 12 reported Monday.

The driver remained at the scene, and the young person was taken to a local hospital for treatment.

Video footage showed firefighters and police officers surrounding the student, who was lying on the ground as traffic passed. The minor was reportedly a student from Palm Beach Lakes Community High School:

“The minor being struck by a vehicle comes as hundreds of students from at least four Palm Beach County high schools took to the streets in coordinated protest against ICE. The schools involved were reported to be Lake Worth Beach High School, John I. Leonard High School, Royal Palm Beach High School, and Palm Beach Lakes High School,” the CBS article said.

President Donald Trump said Thursday that the United States will contribute $10 billion toward the Board of Peace.

Trump made his announcement during the board’s second official meeting, the first convening of the group in Washington, D.C.

“The United States is going to make a contribution of $10 billion to the Board of Peace,” said Trump. “We’ve had great support for that number and that number is a very small number when you look at that, compared to the cost of war. That’s two weeks of fighting.”

Abortion bans will expose women giving birth to “44 to 70 times higher than the mortality risk from abortion,” according to a new study from the University of Maryland and Brown University.

The lead author, Maria Steenland, an assistant professor at the University of Maryland’s School of Public Health, claims, “Our new analysis shows that it is far more dangerous to be pregnant than to have an abortion, and this gap in mortality risk is even larger than previously recognized.”

But what is the new evidence their analysis is based on?
