BREAKING: Idaho House rejects homosexual ‘marriage,’ calls on Supreme Court to reverse Obergefell– www.lifesitenews.com

Blurb:

Idaho Republican lawmakers took a strong stand against homosexual “marriage,” voting to reject the Supreme Court’s Obergefell v. Hodges ruling as “an illegitimate overreach” and urge the court to overturn it.

The Idaho House of Representatives passed a resolution on Tuesday condemning the 2015 decision for “arbitrarily and unjustly” subverting the true definition of marriage, which “has been recognized as the union of one man and one woman for more than 2,000 years.”

The resolution – House Joint Memorial 17 – declares that “the Idaho Legislature rejects the Obergefell decision” and “calls upon the Supreme Court of the United States to reverse Obergefell and restore the natural definition of marriage.”

Mental illness often prevents the afflicted from recognizing reality and adjusting their behavior accordingly.

With that in mind, the wokeness that infects so many leftists’ brains surely qualifies as a disease. After all, not even when they morph into literal satire do they stop and reflect on their absurd views.

For instance, in a remarkable pair of posts on the social media platform X, leftist actor and comedian Walter Masterson doubled down on his pro-open borders rhetoric even after a literal Islamic terrorist tossed a bomb over Masterson’s shoulder and into a crowd at an anti-Islam protest Saturday.

A NASA research satellite weighing roughly 1,300 pounds is falling back to Earth after more than a decade in orbit. The spacecraft is known as Van Allen Probe A, one of two satellites launched by NASA in 2012 to study Earth’s radiation belts. Engineers expected the spacecraft to remain in orbit for years, gathering data about charged particles trapped in Earth’s magnetic field. Now the mission has ended, and gravity started doing its thing.

The national average price for regular gas continues to soar, reaching $3.578 per gallon on Wednesday morning. The price point marks a 64-cent-per-gallon increase compared to a month ago, according to AAA.

The rise in gas prices over the last month is the largest single monthly increase since 2022, when fuel costs increased by 71 cents per gallon between February and March, according to data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration. Between the week of February 9, 2026, and March 9, 2026, the average price for regular grade gasoline rose from $2.902 per gallon to $3.502 per gallon, according to the EIA. Moreover, gas prices today are nearly 50 cents per gallon more expensive than a year ago, according to AAA.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune’s true colors are showing again…

Despite President Trump making it very clear that the SAVE America Act needs to get passed as soon as possible and urging Senate leadership to nuke the filibuster, Sen. Thune is completely refusing to take action.

Sen. Thune told NBC News that a talking filibuster is “more complicated and risky” than people realize and that he doesn’t believe it would work.

One might have thought the campus chaos that followed Oct. 7, 2023, would force a moment of academic sobriety.

After the massacre in Israel, the country watched elite universities descend into moral confusion — students chanting slogans they barely understood, administrators hiding behind procedural evasions, and faculty members serving not as guides but as accelerants. The congressional hearings that followed did not merely embarrass higher education. They revealed something deeper: The line between scholarship and activism had been blurred beyond recognition.

And yet much of the academy appears to have learned nothing.

GOP Sen. Bernie Moreno Outlines Why John Thune Struggles To Move SAVE America Act Forward– dailycaller.com

Blurb:

Republican Ohio Sen. Bernie Moreno on Tuesday listed reasons why Senate Majority Leader John Thune faces difficulty moving the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act through the chamber.

The Republican-controlled House passed the SAVE America Act in February 2026 by a 218–213 vote, requiring documentary proof of U.S. citizenship to register for federal elections. Thune said the bill faces an uncertain path in the Senate because Republicans currently lack the 60 votes needed to overcome a filibuster. Moreno said on “The Ingraham Angle” that Thune has limited leverage over several Republican members who are pushing their own priorities instead of coordinating with party leadership.

Senate Examines China’s Exploits of US Birthright Citizenship– www.dailysignal.com

The Chinese Communist Party oddly found a reason to promote the U.S. Constitution, or at least an interpretation of it, journalist and author Peter Schweizer noted before a Senate panel Tuesday.

At a hearing on birthright citizenship, Sen. Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., asked Schweizer if the Chinese government promotes exploiting the concept.

“They have run articles in the People’s Daily, which is the main news organ of the Communist Party, explaining that you have a constitutional right in the United States,” said Schweizer, president of the watchdog Government Accountability Institute and author of the recent book, “The Invisible Coup: How American Elites and Foreign Powers Use Immigration as a Weapon.”

Paranoid Judges Weaponized ADA To Mask Kids During Covid– thefederalist.com

As we approach the sixth anniversary of the first mandatory stay-at-home orders in reaction to Covid, it seems most Americans just want to forget the whole era. After all, for many people, it is easier to forget rather than confront their participation in the mass hysteria that included seniors forced to die alone, crushed livelihoods, and stunting the education of an entire generation.

But this willful blindness leaves us vulnerable to a repeat performance. In particular, unelected federal judges have not performed any meaningful self-reflection regarding their behavior during Covid, and so we are a bad flu season away from them reprising their role as public health overlords.

Woke Professor Says It Is Time To Ban The Words “Gay” And “Lesbian” Because They Offend Trans People– www.louderwithcrowder.com

Blurb:

The left’s ideology is not rooted in universal truth. This is especially true when it comes to transgenderism. In fact, the entire foundation of that ideology is rooted in the lie that gender is somehow malleable.

This also contradicts the gay agenda. This is because, at one point in time, the left pretended people were “born this way.” The problem now, however, is that the premise for transgenderism is that some are born in the wrong body. Subsequently, if you can allegedly change your sex, then being gay and/or lesbian becomes meaningless. Thus, two things cannot be true at the same time. Either it is true that gay people are born gay or that trans people are born trans. These things cannot coexist — and yes, both can be false. Draw your own conclusions.

Trump Will Try to ‘Seize Ballot Boxes’ to ‘Subvert the Vote’ in Midterms– www.breitbart.com

Blurb:

Tuesday on MS NOW’s “The Briefing,” Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) said President Donald Trump would try to “seize ballot boxes’ to “subvert the vote” in the midterm elections.

Host Jen Psaki said, “The administration subpoenaed records from 2020 from Arizona. We know that’s not about changing the outcome of the 2020 election. We know that they’ve already gone through that. It’s obviously about 2026. What do you make of that and what’s your level of concern about it?”

Schiff said, “I think the subpoenas in Arizona, America, Maricopa County, the FBI raid in Georgia, this is all trying to establish some kind of phony predicate for them to say that the election system is so flawed, the machines don’t work. There’s too much fraud and absentee ballots that come November, they can nationalize the elections, they can somehow outlaw absentee ballots, or they can seize ballot boxes and they will have some pretext to do it. So this is, I think, part of laying the foundation to interfere with, suppress the vote or ultimately subvert the vote. They understand, as we do in the Democratic Party, that they are likely to get clobbered in the midterms and, you know, they’re willing to resort to anything.”

Oil prices retreated Tuesday, even after Secretary of Energy Chris Wright wrongly claimed in a social media post that the U.S. Navy had escorted a tanker through the Strait of Hormuz.

U.S. crude oil fell 11.94% to close at $83.45 per barrel. Brent crude, the global benchmark, lost 11.28% to settle at $87.80. Prices fell more than 17% immediately after Wright’s post.

DNC Sues Trump Over a Plan That May Not Even Exist – PJ Media– pjmedia.com

The Democratic National Committee filed a lawsuit on Mar. 10, 2026, in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, targeting several federal agencies within the Trump Administration, naming the U.S. Department of Justice, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, and the U.S. Department of Defense as defendants.

The lawsuit alleges that the DNC sent close to a dozen FOIA requests to the Justice Department (DOJ), Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Defense Department (DOD) in October “concerning potential deployment of federal agents and troops to polling places, drop boxes, and election offices.” 

“Nearly five months later, the DNC has received neither substantive responses nor responsive documents, not even a list of documents withheld under statutory exemptions,” the suit added.

The leaders of Slovakia, Hungary, and Serbia have long touted their loyalty to President Donald Trump, courting Washington’s conservative wing. But when Trump launched his war with Iran, the mask came off.

Trump has backed Prime Minister Viktor Orban to the hilt as the Hungarian strongman seeks to cling to power in an upcoming election. But that didn’t stop Orban from quickly raising concerns about Trump’s war. Within hours, he raised Hungary’s terrorist threat level, warning that a prolonged Middle East conflict could trigger new waves of migration from Iran through Turkey and the Balkans. “Hungary must prepare and make sure the dam holds,” Orban emphasized.

The U.S. military released striking new footage Tuesday showing American forces systematically destroying major elements of Iran’s naval fleet, offering the public a rare look at the scale of the campaign unfolding across the Persian Gulf and nearby waters. U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) published the video alongside a statement declaring that the strikes are aimed at dismantling Tehran’s ability to threaten international shipping lanes and destabilize the region.

“U.S. forces are degrading the Iranian regime’s ability to project power at sea and harass international shipping,” CENTCOM said. “For years, Iranian forces have threatened freedom of navigation in waters essential to American, regional and global security and prosperity.”

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt reacted to Senate Majority Leader John Thune saying the math doesn’t add up to pass President Donald Trump’s SAVE America Act.

“I think the urgency behind his need to pass the SAVE America Act and his desire to get this country- saving legislation passed have been made quite clear,” Leavitt said of the president on Tuesday.

Thune, R-S.D., had said, “The votes aren’t there to nuke the filibuster, and the votes aren’t there for a talking filibuster.” These are the only options for the Senate to pass the bill without the customary 60 votes to end debate.

Back in 2019, I was excited to report that President Donald Trump had officially launched the “U.S. Space Force,” which would bring the nation’s military space capabilities under one organization.

However, many Democrats, progressives, and Trump-haters derided this development.

The idea was widely mocked when it was first floated, providing fodder for late night hosts, newspaper cartoonists and comedy writers. Senior military officials have previously raised concerns about what it will cost, and former Defense Secretary Jim Mattis warned against rushing into creating the force without clearly defined goals.

Trump administration urged to take on China’s ‘Pharma Death Grip’– www.washingtonexaminer.com

Blurb:

The Trump administration is being urged to tackle imported generic pharmaceuticals, most of which are made in China, due to national security implications.

Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL), chairman of the Senate Special Committee on Aging, wants the Commerce Department to consider using Section 232 national security tariffs on imported generic medicines and their ingredients. Such a move would frame the U.S. pharmaceutical supply chain as a national security vulnerability rather than a purely economic issue.

The push comes as policymakers recognize the United States relies heavily on China for key pharmaceutical materials, particularly the raw components of many antibiotics, while producing a small share domestically, China specialist Gordon Chang said.

“Healthcare, as evident in country after country, is best left to the market, but as China weaponizes trade—and continually threatens war—it’s clear that Washington has to temporarily implement non-market solutions to ensure that Americans have access to the medicines they need,” he wrote in a paper published on Conservative Political Action Conference’s website titled “China’s ‘Pharma Death Grip’ on America.”

It’s  the Great Fear that is just eating away at the poor folks at Politico. It was first expressed by that periodical in December when they suddenly realized that with so many Democrats (and none clearly in the lead) that in the open primary for governor of California that it was possible that with only  two Republicans in that race, that both of them could end up in first and second place due to the Democrats splitting up the rest of the votes among themselves.

A couple of months later in February that fear not only did not go away but intensified with poor Politico going full delusional to the extent of pretending that if they only concentrated on the top two Democrat candidates while absurdly ignoring the two GOP candidates whom many polls are showing in the first and second spot, thus qualifying to run against each other in the general election, that maybe the problem would just go away. The result of completely ignoring the Republican candidates who could both qualify for the general election earned Politico some well deserved mockery.

DORAL, Florida — President Donald Trump told House Republicans Monday he had one overriding legislative priority for 2026. Then they spent Tuesday talking about just about anything else.

Trump’s demand for passage of an updated SAVE America Act — a GOP elections bill that the House has advanced two versions of already — was met with less than complete enthusiasm from leaders gathered for the annual Republican policy retreat.

Speaker Mike Johnson and other senior lawmakers gave the unmistakable impression they now consider that bill to be a Senate problem — even after Trump insisted the House take it up a third time and add on more controversial provisions, such as a near-total ban on mail voting.

New Fox News Poll Shows Socialism Is Surging – RedState– redstate.com

For more than 15 years, Fox News has periodically asked registered voters: “Do you think it would be a good thing or a bad thing for the United States to move away from capitalism and more toward socialism?”

In January 2009, when the U.S. economy was mired in the Great Recession, 23 percent of respondents said they believed that would be a “good thing” versus 65 percent who said that would be a “bad thing.”

By July 2010, the portion of registered voters who considered a transition from capitalism to socialism a “good thing” reached an all-time low of 18 percent, while those who considered more socialism a “bad thing” reached an all-time high of 69 percent.

Today, 38 percent of Americans, more than double the number in 2010, think it would be a “good thing” for the United States to move away from capitalism and more toward socialism.

“This is not 2003. This is not endless nation-building under those types of quagmires we saw under Bush or Obama. It’s not even close,” Hegseth said. “Our generation of soldier will not let that happen again, and nor will this president, who very clearly ran against those kinds of never-ending, nebulously scoped missions — those days are dead.”
