The feds have busted a Brazilian illegal alien who led an organization that falsely claimed to be a government agency and fraudulently trained foreign nationals throughout the United States to become chaplains.

Mario Cesar Dos Santos Jr. is facing deportation proceedings for allegedly handing out fake federal identification cards to fellow illegal aliens under the pretense the cards would shield them from deportation. Dos Santos also sold the chaplain trainees gold badges, shirts and other merchandise fraudulently emblazoned with the seal of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

Dos Santos is the chief executive of the “Chaplain Emergency Management Agency” or “CEMA,” which claims to be “an agency of the United States of America” on it’s slick, still active website.

The U.S. Department of Defense announced the cancellation of its military education fellowships at 13 top universities on Friday, citing “toxic indoctrination.”

“We are eliminating certain Senior Service College (SSC) Fellowship programs for the 2026-2027 academic year and beyond. I am also directing the compilation of a revised list of elite institutions offering equivalent programs to replace those eliminated,” the agency wrote in a memo to Pentagon leadership.

It said this change will give leaders “a more rigorous and relevant education.”

Further, in a video posted on X,  Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said, “For decades, the Ivy League and similar institutions have gorged themselves on a trust fund of American taxpayer dollars only to become factories of anti-American resentment and military disdain.”

“They’ve replaced the study of victory and pragmatic realism with the promotion of wokeness and weakness,” he said.

So when Operation Epic Fury commenced over the weekend — which saw joint U.S. and Israeli forces successfully kill Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, as well as much of Tehran’s leadership infrastructure — it was only logical for people to assume that the markets would have a volatile and negative weekend.

According to The Wall Street Journal, those wringing their hands were only half right.

In the same clip, she is seen hugging strangers in New York. For Alinejad, those embraces were not theatrical. They were, as she later explained, acts of survival.Responding to comments about “hugging strangers”, she wrote that when you live in exile and cannot safely hug your own mother, strangers stop feeling like strangers. The people she embraced, she said, saw both joy and grief on her face. “That’s not performance. That’s survival.” She added that America had saved her life three times and that the people around her have become her new family. For Alinejad, developments in Iran are never abstract political events.

It is extremely unlikely that the Islamic Republic of Iran can survive both this decimation of its leadership and the hatred of its people. The world owes a tremendous debt of gratitude to President Trump, although the left continues to excoriate him for taking out one of its favorite tyrants. The left loves oppression and bloodshed and will bring both to the U.S. if it regains the presidency.

“Trump to Fox News: 49 leaders taken out in Iran,” Fox News, March 2, 2026:

President Donald Trump told Fox News that the U.S. and Israel killed 49 of Iran’s most senior leaders in the opening strike of Operation Epic Fury on Saturday morning….

Trump told Baier that Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was meeting with his inner circle for breakfast on the morning of the attack, thinking they were safe because it was in broad daylight.

“It was 49 leaders that were taken out. That was going to take four weeks, we thought, to get rid of the Iranian leadership. And it’s always, you know, if they hide, it’s a lot longer than four weeks. And they would have been hiding,” Trump told Baier. “We were shocked when we heard what was going on. We knew exactly what was happening and where.”

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Iran’s ex-president who said ‘Israel must be wiped off the map,’ killed in Israeli airstrikes

Former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad — a polarizing hardliner who became the face of Tehran’s nuclear defiance and incendiary anti-Israel rhetoric — was reportedly killed in Israeli airstrikes during Saturday’s strikes inside Iran.

During a 2005 conference titled “A World Without Zionism,” he quoted Iran’s founding leader, Ayatollah Khomeini, who had referred to Israel as “the occupying regime of Jerusalem” and a “disgraceful cancerous growth” that “must be wiped off the map.

Furthermore, Ahmadinejad was reportedly directly involved in the taking of the American Embassy hostages in 1979.

A report by the Israeli media outlet Ma’ariv stated that Ahmadinejad was under house arrest at the time and was killed in a targeted strike on his home. (NY Post)

Something appears to be laughably missing in Politico‘s Saturday story about the  June nonpartisan gubernatorial primary in California. Namely the front runner is a Republican, Steve Hilton, and another Republican is very possibly the second place candidate, both of whom would be facing each other in the November general election for governor.

Is it a mere coincidence that Politico writers Blake Jones and Lindsey Holden completely ignored them because they happen to have the taboo (R) by their names which are completely AWOL in “Why Swalwell and Steyer are surging in California governor’s race”?

The focus of the story (to the complete exclusion of Republicans) is made completely absurd by the inconvenient fact that Eric Swalwell is currently in either second or third place while Hilton is ahead of him according to the latest results from Emerson College Polling.

For years, corporate America has fallen all over itself to be applauded by activists like the Human Rights Campaign, falsely believing HRC’s approval meant they were doing something right and good for business. This year, hundreds of companies, realizing they’ve been led astray, marched the other way.

Participation in the Human Rights Campaign’s Corporate Equality Index (CEI) was once treated as all but mandatory for Fortune 500 companies. But 2026 marks a cataclysmic collapse for that assumption.

In 2026, HRC saw a dramatic 65 percent drop in Fortune 500 CEI participation from 2025. And the number of companies achieving the “perfect” 100 score dropped approximately 30 percent from roughly 750 to 534. That’s not a rounding error. It’s a rapid retreat. And it’s overdue. But why such a dramatic shift? Why now?

White House Prioritizes Domestic Phosphorus, Glyphosate Production for Food Security– legalinsurrection.com

The last time I covered the topic of the week-killing compound called glyphosate, it was in the context of concern over chemical supply shortages in 2022.

In that report, I shared concerns about the lack of phosphorus, used in compounds that support agriculture. I also noted that farmers were struggling because weeds had developed resistance to the exposure levels of this chemical, usually linked to the product Roundup.

This week, President Donald Trump signed an executive order using the Defense Production Act (DPA) to prioritize and expand U.S. production of elemental phosphorus and ensure adequate production of glyphosate‑based herbicides, designating them as “critical” to national defense and food security and extending liability protections to producers that comply with the order.

“I find that ensuring robust domestic elemental phosphorus mining and United States-based production of glyphosate-based herbicides is central to American economic and national security,” Trump said in the order. “Without immediate Federal action, the United States remains inadequately equipped and vulnerable.”

…Phosphorus, which is also covered in the order, is a precursor to the production of glyphosate and is also used in the manufacturing of certain military equipment.

The order will require Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins to issue orders and regulations to implement the increased supply of phosphorus and glyphosate.

A White House Fact sheet on the executive order said Trump signed it to “ensure domestic production of elemental phosphorus and glyphosate-based herbicides, the loss of which would cripple critical supply chains.”

Puerto Rico’s Unborn Child Law Takes Effect

Puerto Rican Governor Jenniffer Gonzalez signed an amendment to Senate Bill 823 that recognizes an unborn child as being a human being. The bill is seen as an assault on the abortion industry, which it thankfully is. The Governor declared an unborn child is legally a person, and now, that declaration is codified into Puerto Rican law.

She said at the signing that the law “aims to maintain consistency between civil and criminal provisions by recognizing the unborn child as a human being.” Puerto Rico joins 38 states that recognize the unborn as a person and 27 states that provide protection of the unborn throughout the prenatal period of human development.

Why Puerto Rico’s Double Homicide Law Involving Pregnant Mothers Terrifies the Abortion Industry – standingforfreedom.com

Puerto Rico just passed a law recognizing unborn babies as human beings under the penal code, impacting cases that involve the murder of pregnant women and revealing society’s contradictions regarding life and abortion.

On Thursday, Puerto Rico Gov. Jenniffer González signed into law a measure that recognizes unborn babies as human beings under the territory’s penal code. The amendment to Senate Bill 923 alters the legal definition of murder to include the killing of a fetus, establishing consistency between Puerto Rico’s civil and criminal provisions.

The legislation was named after Keishla Rodríguez, a pregnant woman murdered in April 2021, whose killer — former boxer Félix Verdejo — received two life sentences for the double homicide.

The hospital appeared to be clueless to the violent pedophilic crimes it has committed, confessing it ended the program due to the “current regulatory environment,” and not because mutilating children to satisfy your transgender ideology is pure evil, as normal human beings can clearly see and understand.

It stated, “Given the recent departure of our medical director, coupled with the current regulatory environment, we made the difficult decision to discontinue our Transgender Youth Health Program. We are committed to helping patients in our care manage this change. This does not impact our pediatric mental health care programs, which will continue.”
