Maryland Sued By DOJ Over Illegal Alien Protection Law

If only Democrats spent a quarter of the time helping and protecting Americans as they do illegal aliens

DOJ sues Maryland over immigration sanctuary law

The Department of Justice (DOJ) sued the state of Maryland on Thursday over a new law the department alleges interferes with the Trump administration’s efforts to enforce immigration law.

The lawsuit, filed in federal court against the state and Maryland Attorney General Anthony Brown (D), seeks to block the enforcement of the Community Trust Act, which went into effect in May after being passed by the Democratic supermajority in the state Legislature.

The lawsuit alleges the new law prevents local jails and state law enforcement from cooperating with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

“The Act’s purpose and effect is to obstruct federal law enforcement and thwart the constitutional obligation of the President of the United States to take care that the immigration laws enacted by Congress are enforced,” DOJ lawyers wrote in the complaint.

Associate Attorney General Stanley Woodward accused Maryland and Brown of shielding migrants without legal status from federal authorities and violating the Constitution’s supremacy clause.

“When sanctuary jurisdictions enact laws to shield illegal aliens from federal law enforcement, it is not merely federal law that is violated, but the voices of everyday American voters silenced,” Woodward said in a statement.

The Trump admin should start shipping loads and loads of illegals to Annapolis, the capital of Maryland. And rich areas like Gibson Island, Potomac, Bethesda Hills, and Chevy Chase, among others. The areas around the Eastern Shores, where the Rich and powerful vacation. Let’s see how much the Elite Maryland Democrats like illegals then.

In a statement to The Washington Post, a spokesperson for Maryland Gov. Wes Moore (D) said the state “will work with the federal government when that coordination makes our people safer.”

“While Trump’s ICE has ripped mothers out of cars and detained five-year-olds, Maryland’s law allows our law enforcement to continue working with federal officers to get violent offenders off our streets, remain focused on the work that has helped drive historic reductions in violent crime, and protect fundamental civil rights,” said Moore spokesperson Rhyan Lake.

That has nothing to do with the notion that Maryland law enforcement is not allowed now to notify ICE when they catch an illegal alien in the commission of a crime. Could be a murderer, rapist, child abuser, major crimes, and cannot contact Los Federales. That’s sick.

Bummer: New Trump Climate Office Has Climate Realist At The Head

By William Teach July 10, 2026 – 3:00 pm

The people who refuse to practice what they preach are Upset

The administration has a new climate change office. It’s headed by a climate critic.

The Trump administration has reconstituted a governmentwide program that tracks how climate change is transforming the country, after having gutted it last year as part of a purge of programs that didn’t line up with its worldview.

The U.S. Global Change Research Program is now headed by Matthew Wielicki, a former University of Alabama geochemist, according to his public postings on social media and confirmed by a second person familiar with the program, granted anonymity over fears of reprisal.

Wielicki, who calls himself a “professor in exile” and who frequently critiques climate science on social media, will be in charge of the program’s primary product, the congressionally mandated National Climate Assessment, a comprehensive report released every four years that shows how American infrastructure, lives and the economy are affected by climate change.

Reached by phone, Wielicki, who has been soliciting ideas on X for what he should include in the next version of the assessment, said he’d like to speak about his work but only if the White House allows. The White House did not make him available for an interview, but sent a statement.

“For too long, the USGCRP has been used as a vehicle for political agendas instead of sound science,” a White House spokesperson said in a statement. “We look forward to restoring the USGCRP and ensuring it fulfills its legal mandate.”

The cultists Demanded that the NCA be completed. They sued. And now they got their wish, but, not in the way they thought.

Judith Curry, one of the scientists selected by Wright to author the DOE report, said the last version of the assessment “was all but useless” because it relied too heavily on extreme emissions scenarios. She said the forthcoming report would avoid that and expected that it would be an expansion of the work started by the DOE report.

Curry said she would “provide high-level advice” to help craft the next version of the assessment.

This will not be the “we’re all doomed unless we give up our money and freedom to government” type reports.

Maine AWFLs Upset Nazi Platner Dropped Out

By William Teach July 10, 2026 – 10:30 am

The Nazi tattoo should have been disqualifying, and Platner knew it was a Nazi tattoo from the get-go. But, you know, Democrats

Why Some Women in Maine Are Mourning the End of Graham Platner’s Campaign

Cory Upton-Cosulich sat in a parked car by a hiking trail in Maine this week, fuming over the implosion of Graham Platner’s Senate campaign.

Her anger wasn’t directed at him.

It was aimed at the powerful people far away from her working-class harbor town who, one after the next, had rescinded their endorsements of a candidate she supported in the Democratic primary last month. The feeling was familiar — watching people in Washington decide who should represent her.

She said she believed the woman who had accused Mr. Platner of rape, a claim he has denied. She believed the other allegations too. She decided to support him anyway, because he had promised to work on her behalf, and she believed him.

“Establishment Dems are clutching their pearls because they don’t have him on a leash,” Ms. Upton-Cosulich, 40, typed into the box on Facebook asking her what was on her mind as she sat in her car. “The people of Maine want change.”

How many other liberal women feel the same way? And why do any of them feel this strongly about any politician? None of them are good people. But, hey, what kind of change do they want? Nazi stuff?

Democrats at every level of the party assumed that women who had supported Mr. Platner would be thrilled that he was being pushed out of the race. Instead, some women in this independent-minded slice of the country who powered the progressive upstart’s meteoric rise are angry and grieving.

Some of their pain stems from the loss of a candidate who put words to their frustrations with a political system that they feel makes their lives harder, not easier. Mr. Platner, they said, made them believe that a different reality was possible. His vision resonated so deeply that neighbors who had spent a decade disagreeing found common ground in someone who sounded like them.

So, he gave them pretty words, then ruined healthcare/insurance, created massive racial strife, and so much more? Oh, wait, that was Obama. What would Platner do? Most likely just be yet another BS politician.

That excitement was powerful enough for many women to push past their own feelings, after a monthslong trickle of unsavory revelations, that Mr. Platner was a morally compromised candidate. He had weathered scrutiny over a tattoo that is widely recognized as a Nazi symbol, a history of offensive online posts and a series of allegations by women he had dated that he had acted in disturbing ways.

“I supported him with trepidation,” said Kat Higgins, 64, a retired nurse, on a power walk through the coastal city of Belfast this week. “I was giving him the benefit of the doubt because of the bigger picture.”

So giving the benefit of the doubt on a Nazi tattoo? Lefrist women are broken.

This week, as news spread that Mr. Platner had withdrawn from the race, The New York Times spoke with more than 40 women along Maine’s coast about why they felt that he had deserved their support.

Many of them explained that, after falling in love with his movement and its possibilities, they placed just as much blame on the leaders who had elevated Mr. Platner, and their failure to find someone less fallible, as on the candidate himself.

We knew about the Nazi tattoo early. The time to drop your support was then, regardless of what the Elites said.

Several women said they recognized Mr. Platner’s swaggering style from men in their lives who had hurt them.

They supported him anyway, at least until this week, because he cared about their medical bills, had ideas to make housing more affordable and seemed to be a normal guy who meant what he said and took responsibility for past mistakes. They saw him as a potential answer to a leadership void they believed existed on the left since former President Barack Obama left office.

“Normal guys” with Nazi tattoos who assaulted women

Although she believes the woman, Jenny Racicot, who said Mr. Platner had raped her, she also believes, with just as much conviction, that politicians in Washington are corrupt. Not only had many of them, including President Trump, survived their own allegations of sexual assault, but they seemed to have lost sight of their main responsibility to the regular people who had elected them, Ms. Upton-Cosulich said.

These AWFLs have killed #MeToo. Congrats!

Bummer: Climate Doom Happened Six Years Ago Or Something

By William Teach July 10, 2026 – 7:15 am

I guess we’re all dead

Oops, Scientists May Have Miscalculated Our Global Warming Timeline

Whatever your stance is on climate change (it’s real!), it’s impossible to have missed the near-ubiquitous call to action to “keep temperatures from exceeding 1.5 degrees Celsius compared to pre-industrial levels.” Over the past few years, the somewhat bureaucratic phrase has become a rallying cry for the climate conscious.

This ambitious target first surfaced following the Paris Climate Agreement, and describes a sort of climate threshold—if we pass a long-term average increase in temperature of 1.5 degrees Celsius, and hold at those levels for several years, we’re going to do some serious damage to ourselves and our environment.

Well, a paper from the University Western Australia Oceans Institute has some bad news: the world might’ve blown past that threshold six years ago.

Published in the journal Nature Climate Change, the paper reaches this conclusion via an unlikely route—analyzing six sclerosponges, a kind of sea sponge that clings to underwater caves in the ocean. These sponges are commonly studied by climate scientists and are referred to as “natural archives” because they grow so slowly. Like, a-fraction-of-a-millimeter-a-year slow. This essentially allows them to lock away climate data in their limestone skeletons, not entirely unlike tree rings or ice cores.

Oh, good, 6 sea sponges studied means climate doom 6 years ago.

“The big picture is that the global warming clock for emissions reductions to minimize the risk of dangerous climate change has been brought forward by at least a decade,” Malcolm McCulloch, lead author of the study, told the Associated Press. “Basically, time’s running out.”

LOL. Cult.

The study concludes that the world started warming roughly 80 years before the IPCC’s estimates, and that we already surpassed 1.7 degrees Celsius in 2020. That’s a big “woah, if true” moment, but some scientists are skeptical. One such scientist, speaking with LiveScience, said that “it begs credulity to claim that the instrumental record is wrong based on paleosponges from one region of the world … It honestly doesn’t make any sense to me.” Other experts expressed wanting to see more data before completely upending the IPCC’s climate goalposts, which say the Earth is currently hovering at a long-term temperature change of around 1.2 degrees Celsius.

None of it makes sense, because this is all ravings of a doomsday cult.

Mexican President Says Will Pursue Legal Action After NICE Kills Illegal Who Tried To Run Them Over

By William Teach July 10, 2026 – 7:00 am

Say, can we now sue Mexico for every Mexican illegal who has hurt or killed a US citizen?

Mexico says it will pursue legal action against US after deadly ICE shooting in Houston

Mexico says it will pursue legal action against the U.S. following Tuesday’s deadly shooting involving an ICE agent in Houston.

“Our objective is to go beyond diplomatic notes and the measures we have already raised before the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, because we cannot allow the mistreatment of our fellow Mexicans in the United States,” President Claudia Sheinbaum told reporters Wednesday. “Unfortunately, there has been another death of a Mexican national in the United States for being detained, when that person’s only offense was lacking immigration documents, even though they had been hired by an American company.”

On Tuesday, ICE claims they were conducting a vehicle stop as part of a targeted enforcement operation to arrest a man they say was living in the country illegally. ICE alleges that the man, identified as Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, attempted to evade arrest, rammed his car into an ICE vehicle, and refused commands to stop.

The agency said the man tried to run over an agent, leading to the officer firing his weapon in what ICE claims is self-defense. ICE states that the man was hit and was taken to the hospital, where he died.

They bodycam footage will most likely show this, and, can NICE then sue Mexico because one of their citizens attempted to kill a US federal agent? BTW, if you are caught illegally in Mexico they will throw you in a nasty jail.

Weird: Teens Do Not Like The Idea Of Teens Having A Curfew

By William Teach July 9, 2026 – 3:00 pm

What are the teens doing out so late at night? Especially when it is after midnight? Where are their parents?

Teens question proposed Raleigh curfew after weekend chaos

Joshua Holden went to Brier Creek on July 4 to watch fireworks with friends, expecting a night of celebration.

“I was just trying to have fun,” Holden said.

The atmosphere changed abruptly, he said, when fighting and gunfire broke out.

“It just turned into chaos because of the fighting and the shooting that happened, and people just not getting along all together and all,” Holden said.

Let’s remember that most of this started around 1030pm. And then more continued down off Glenwood Ave after midnight, with a lot of the same people who cops saw at Brier Creek showing up at the second “Teen takeover”.

Holden said he understands those concerns but believes not everyone present should be blamed for the actions of others.

“It’s upsetting. I’m not going to lie because it affected us as a whole. We are gaining consequences over something that we don’t we didn’t do,” Holden said.

Holden, a recent high school graduate, spoke alongside his mentor, Scottie Barnes, founder of the youth mentoring group Katch the Kite.

If he’s a recent graduate is he above the age of 17? Then there is no curfew. And a whole lot more in terms of charges and accountability if you get caught involved with this.

Holden questioned whether a broad curfew is the right solution.

“I think it should just affect the specific people that got into the incident,” he said.

Who are these specific people? Point them out so the police can come arrest them

Coreion Levy, an upcoming high school senior who is working two jobs this summer, also opposed the proposal.

“We shouldn’t have a curfew because there’s like a bandage on the cut. What is it really doing?” Levy said.

It’s keep juveniles home. Why are they out late at night?

Levy said teens need more recreational opportunities.

Late at night? Back in my day we had plenty of stuff to do during the day. Fishing, riding bikes, playing down by the river, just hanging out, and so much more. We didn’t have smartphones, streaming, computers, and so forth. We made our fun. What are these kids doing? And why do they need this stuff for late at night?

Planned Parenthood Sure Seems To Have Money To Target Republicans

By William Teach July 9, 2026 – 10:30 am

Nothing says “how dare you cut off our federal (taxpayer) funding” like dropping $47 million on elections

Planned Parenthood to target GOP with $47 million midterm blitz

Planned Parenthood is pumping more than $47 million into the midterms as it looks to pick off Republicans who cut off funding to the abortion provider last year.

The near-record investment from Planned Parenthood Votes — an independent super PAC affiliated with Planned Parenthood — will fund ads and voter-outreach efforts targeting Republicans across 10 battleground House races in seven states, as well as in Maine and Michigan’s critical Senate contests, according to plans shared first with POLITICO. (snip)

Planned Parenthood Votes’ push comes after congressional Republicans stripped Planned Parenthood’s Medicaid funding for one year as part of their 2025 megalaw, exacerbating the group’s cash woes and leading to a spate of clinic closures.

$47 million. If you can drop $47 million like this you don’t have cash woes.

“We’re in the fight of our lives,” Sarah Standiford, executive director of Planned Parenthood Votes, said in an interview. And she said the group will do everything it can to “elect unapologetic champions of reproductive freedom” and “make sure members of Congress who voted against Planned Parenthood lose their jobs.”

Kinda goes to show that PP is all about abortion on demand, not any other type of care like they claim.

But the group believes abortion-rights messaging still has salience. They pointed to recent polling from the Democratic firm Navigator Research that shows pluralities of Americans view banning abortions and cutting federal funding for Planned Parenthood as disqualifying positions.

“For millions of Americans, abortion is not a hypothetical election issue, it is part of their everyday lives,” Standiford said. “Abortion and defunding Planned Parenthood are not just highly mobilizing, they are in fact dealbreakers for voters across the political spectrum, and that’s how we’re going to be talking to voters about this issue.”

Well, if people want an abortion they can pay for it. If PP has $47 million to run on political ads they can afford to operate their unborn murder operation.

Congressional Republicans blocked Planned Parenthood from accessing what amounted to $700 million annually for non-abortion services like contraception and cancer screenings under the megalaw. But Republicans failed to muster the votes to extend the provision, and when the law lapsed in early July, the network of clinics regained access to hundreds of millions in federal funding.

Yeah, we all know elected Republicans are idiots. Thanks for letting us know.

Even as abortion has slipped as a top issue for voters, advocacy groups on both sides of the ongoing fight over reproductive care are pouring tens of millions into gubernatorial, congressional and further down-ballot races. Planned Parenthood Votes’ $47 million investment is its second-highest ever, just shy of the $50 million the group spent in 2022.

PP doesn’t seem to have cash flow issues, eh? Hey, maybe there should be an audit, though, to see where that money came from. If it came from federal allocations there should be some people arrested and prosecuted.

Warmists Warn That AC Is Not The Answer Or Something

By William Teach July 9, 2026 – 7:15 am

The Experts Have Spoken

Air-Conditioning Isn’t The Solution To A Warmer World, A Global Review Warns

It’s undeniable that the world is getting hotter and hotter. As heatwaves grow more oppressive and summer days melt into a sweaty, sweltering mess, air conditioning is saving lives. But a new global review argues the energy-hungry AC units are not a long-term solution to the problem.

Without getting bogged down in the trenches of the “air conditioning culture wars” between the US and Europe, air conditioning does have its place. According to some estimates, it can prevent about 75 percent of heat-related deaths.

Gee, ya think?

The problem is that air conditioning churns through an incredible amount of electricity and puts real pressure on energy grids. Air conditioning currently accounts for 7 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions, and that burden is only set to grow. Much of the emissions come from the electricity required to power the units, but AC systems also rely on planet-warming refrigerants, hydrofluorocarbons, or alternative chemicals that carry their own ecological costs.

Given this strain, the review argues that the world will need to look to new innovative methods to cool down going forward.

How much do you want to bet the people who wrote this use AC themselves? Anyhow, their suggestions?

The review examines a range of passive cooling technologies that can lower temperatures with little to no energy use, including radiative coatings for buildings and reflective materials that passively dissipate sunlight.

“The best cooling strategy is to stop unwanted heat from entering buildings in the first place. Shading, reflective materials, opens in a new window, smarter ventilation, opens in a new window and new cooling materials can dramatically reduce indoor temperatures before an air conditioner even needs to switch on,” said Professor Santamouris.

Many of these technologies come with higher upfront costs, the paper notes, but ultimately pay off with lower long-term operating costs, without the added climate toll.

Oh, piss off, wankers.
