A federal judge just reaffirmed what federal law already says: voter rolls belong to the public. Massachusetts has been ordered to turn over its full voter registration list to Voter Reference Foundation—a major win for transparency and accountability. Voters have a right to know who’s registered and to spot discrepancies. Transparency isn’t optional. It’s the law. yournews.com/2026/04/01/675…

@JudiciaryGOP The FBI should get a search warrant, raid their offices, take laptops/cell phones and any materials they have failed to produce. If they are funneling foreign money into Dems campaigns it is a matter of national security.

New reporting has confirmed our findings: ActBlue accepts illegal foreign donations en masse. ActBlue tried to cover this up by misleading and withholding documents from Congress. But it didn’t work.

April 20, 1775: The Siege of Boston Begins Following the opening shots of the American Revolution at Lexington and Concord on April 19, 1775, colonial militiamen pursued the retreating British regulars all the way back to Boston. Rather than disperse, the Patriots took up positions in a wide arc around the city, effectively trapping the British Army inside. What began as a spontaneous pursuit quickly evolved into the Siege of Boston, the first major campaign of the Revolutionary War. For the next eleven months, from April 20, 1775, until March 17, 1776, thousands of New England militiamen (and later volunteers from as far away as Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Virginia) maintained a loose but determined encirclement of the city. The British, under General Thomas Gage, found themselves bottled up by land, with the Royal Navy providing their only lifeline for supplies and reinforcements. Meanwhile, the colonial forces, though poorly equipped and lacking formal training, were highly motivated and increasingly organized. As news of the fighting at Lexington and Concord spread like wildfire across the colonies, thousands of Patriot volunteers streamed toward Boston. Farmers, artisans, merchants, and tradesmen left their homes and fields to join the fight. By early June 1775, these volunteer forces numbered around 15,000 to 20,000 men at their peak. On June 14, 1775, the Second Continental Congress in Philadelphia took a historic step: they voted to adopt the New England army surrounding Boston as the nucleus of a new national force, the Continental Army. The following day, Congress appointed George Washington of Virginia as its commander-in-chief. Washington arrived in Cambridge, Massachusetts, on July 3, 1775, to take formal command. The siege dragged on through the summer and winter. Key moments included the bloody Battle of Bunker Hill (June 17, 1775), which demonstrated both the fierce fighting spirit of the colonists and the terrible cost of frontal assaults against entrenched positions. Later, in the dead of winter, Colonel Henry Knox led an extraordinary expedition to haul captured artillery from Fort Ticonderoga over 300 miles of frozen terrain to Boston. These heavy guns, emplaced on Dorchester Heights in March 1776, finally made the British position untenable. On March 17, 1776, known ever since in Boston as Evacuation Day, the British Army and over a thousand Loyalist civilians boarded ships and sailed away under the guns of the Continental Army. The city was liberated without a final pitched battle, marking the first major strategic victory for the American cause. The Siege of Boston proved once again that ordinary colonists could stand up to the might of the British Empire and win. It transformed scattered militia companies into the beginnings of a professional army and gave the fledgling nation its first commander and its first taste of unified resistance.

@STUinSD Dirty democrats will never stop lying and gaslighting. It's what they do.

He’s been a liar since his activist college days.

@MZHemingway @marceelias Elias is a traitor to this country.

@marceelias As always, you overstate both your involvement and your success rate, but it is true that the future of free and fair elections hinges on defeating you and your Russia collusion hoax and various election interference scams.

Elias Law Group is currently litigating 87 voting and election cases in 44 states and the District of Columbia. It is no exaggeration to say that the future of free and fair elections and democracy is on the docket.

@deanandersonnyc @DougTrueLove @DrJStrategy @dorothyjyotisi You're a clown 🤡

@DougTrueLove @AudreysAmerica @DrJStrategy @dorothyjyotisi Yeah, your claims were previously discredited. How come all you have are lies and fallacies?? And you still didn’t prove you were a real person by identifying the content of a picture. Huh.

Food for thought. Trump, Hormuz and the End of the Free Ride For half a century, Western strategists have known that the Strait of Hormuz is the acute point where energy, sea power and political will intersect. That knowledge is not in dispute. What is new in this war with Iran is that the United States, under Donald Trump, has chosen not to rush to “solve” the problem. In Hegelian terms, he is refusing an easy synthesis in order to force the underlying contradiction to the surface. The old thesis was simple: the US guarantees open sea lanes in the Gulf, and everyone else structures their economies and politics around that free insurance. Europe and the UK embraced ambitious green policies, ran down hard‑power capabilities and lectured Washington on multilateral virtue, secure in the assumption that American carriers would always appear off Hormuz. The political class behaved as if the American security guarantee were a law of nature, not a contingent choice. Their conduct today is closer to Chamberlain than Churchill: temporising, issuing statements, hoping the storm will pass without a fundamental reordering of their responsibilities. Trump’s antithesis is to withhold the automatic guarantee at the moment of maximum stress. Militarily, the US can break Iran’s residual ability to contest the Strait; that is not the binding constraint. The point is to delay that act. By allowing a closure or semi‑closure to bite, Trump ensures that the immediate pain is concentrated in exactly the jurisdictions that have most conspicuously free‑ridden on US power: the EU and the UK. Their industries, consumers and energy‑transition assumptions are exposed. In that context, his reported blunt message to European and British leaders, you need the oil out of the Strait more than we do; why don’t you go and take it? Is not a throwaway line. It is the verbalisation of the antithesis. It openly reverses the traditional presumption that America will carry the burden while its allies emote from the sidelines. In this dialectic, the prize is not simply the reopening of a chokepoint. The prize is a reordered system in which the United States effectively arbitrages and controls the global flow of oil. A world in which US‑aligned production in the Americas plus a discretionary capability to secure,or not secure, Hormuz places Washington at the centre of the hydrocarbon chessboard. For that strategic end, a rapid restoration of the old status quo would be counterproductive. A quick, surgical “fix” of Hormuz would short‑circuit the dialectic. If Trump rapidly crushed Iran’s remaining coastal capabilities, swept the mines and escorted tankers back through the Strait, Europe and the UK would heave a sigh of relief and return to business as usual: underfunded militaries, maximalist green posturing and performative disdain for US power, all underwritten by that same power. The contradiction between their dependence and their posture would remain latent. By declining to supply the synthesis on demand, and by explicitly telling London and Brussels to “go and take it” themselves, Trump forces a reckoning. European and British leaders must confront the fact that their energy systems, their industrial bases and their geopolitical sermons all rest on an American hard‑power foundation they neither finance nor politically respect. The longer the contradiction is allowed to unfold, the stronger the eventual synthesis can be: a new order in which access to secure flows, Hormuz, Venezuela and beyond, is explicitly conditional on real contributions, not assumed as a right. In that sense, the delay in “taking” the Strait, and the challenge issued to US allies to do it themselves, is not indecision. It is the negative moment Hegel insisted was necessary for history to move. Only by withholding the old guarantee, and by saying so out loud to those who depended on it, can Trump hope to end the free ride.

Patriots Day. Marking April 19, 1775. When Americans took up arms against their king, and bled, at the crack of terrible dawn. It's a holiday in Massachusetts and Maine, which was then part of Massachusetts. Should be a national holiday. July 4 marks the day they published a piece of paper, telling the king to shove it. Important. Up until then it was a civil war. Americans who considered themselves Englishmen fighting British troops. After that, it was Americans fighting the British for their independence. Patriots Day is first blood. I took my boy to Lexington for the re-enactment when he was just six. We arrived well before dawn, to get a place right on the Green. Right by the stone that marks the place where Capt. Parker's line was. With his reported order etched in it, "Stand your ground. Don't fire unless fired upon, but if they mean to have a war, let it begin here." Which is where it did. There was a light rain, and my boy pressed himself against my legs for shelter and warmth. A woolen horse blanket over our heads against the rain. Around 5 am he said, "Daddy, my feet are cold." I said, "Stamp your feet." So he did. Only complaint out of him. Brave boy. Just before dawn, we heard the fifes and drums coming up Massachusetts Avenue. The same road the British took on their 20-mile march from Boston to Concord to seize a cache of American guns and munitions. Why we have 2A. The British could see where things were going, and were actively trying to disarm the Americans. In New England, close to Canada, they were heavily armed. Nearly every able-bodied man had a musket and was in the militia. White and black. My boy and I heard the crash of boots. Loud. I felt him shudder against my legs. Then the British re-enactors rushed onto the Green, shouting. Both sides in their reports after the fact agreed, no one knows who fired the first shot. Was it an accidental discharge, a provocateur trying to get things going? No one knows. Both sides erupted in fire. A cacophony of flints sparking powder in the pan, then the discharge. A violent discordant atonal symphony, up and down the line. Clouds of white gunsmoke, with streaks of fire cutting through. The British troops in red uniforms and black leather helmets pushing forward, bayoneting the militia in their broadcloth farmers' work clothes. Officers trying to bring it to a stop. The British had fired without orders. Royal Marines Maj. John Pitcairn, who had been tapped to lead an Army vanguard, did not want this. He was a man respected and liked by the Americans who knew him. Killed later at Bunker Hill, buried in the Old North Church. The British troops by now hated the Jonathans, as they called the New Englanders, who never missed an opportunity to mock them. The troops finally brought to heel, they marched the five miles on to Concord. Leaving the American dead and wounded on Lexington Green behind them. The first Americans to take up arms for their freedom. My boy is grown. He's one of them now. An American soldier. Ranger tab, jumps out of airplanes. For you. He told me years later, he knew what he was going to do from age 5. 9/11. We always spoke to the kids in age appropriate ways about what was happening in the world. He knew. He was the one, flipping channels from Sesame Street to Nickelodeon before kindergarten, who saw the Twin Towers spewing smoke and went to tell his mother. When he was seven, when I was back from Iraq, tucking him in, he said, "Dad. When I grow up, if I'm not killed in battle, I want to be a major league baseball player." So we still make them like that, those farmers who lined up at Lexington Green.

Everything right now is about the midterms - it is the only way they think they can stop Trump dismantling the deep state & their global system of enslavement. The in-fighting is designed to make you stay home & lose faith so they can steal the midterms. Many who claimed to be allies of Pres Trump are being exposed - don’t fall for the deception operation. Be motivated like never before - get up, stand up, speak up - be as critical as you like but stand firm & donny be a fool - things are far from perfect but Pres Trump is the only thing standing in their way.

There’s a major math problem for R candidates in MA that must inform their strategy. If every single normal person in MA turned out to vote R in November, not sure math works. You’d assume 2.3M audit voters as “normal.” But lots of 2.3M normie voters won’t vote R because they’re in 1 of these groups. I know many in cluster 1. 1. Boomer TDS libs 2. People on public assistance 3. State employees 4. Teachers, higher ed, college student voters 5. Medical profession 6. Businesses thriving off @MassDems @MassGovernor self-destructive policy. Includes some unions I miss any other state-killing voting clusters? (No, I’m not going there.) See the dilemma? @ShortsleeveMA @MikeMinogueABMD @MikeKennealy @PeabodyAM @AnneBrensleyMA @OliverForLG @JohnEDeaton1 @micahqjones @UsaReclaim @massgop You must somehow get a good chunk of cluster 1 to up their meds, separate MA from Trump. And, you must get a huge chunk of younger disengaged people (didn’t vote in 2024) to turn out. Are there maybe 200k of these? #mapoli #bospoli #magov

This is probably the most important video you will ever see. It explains absolutely everything. While propagandists and podcasters line up to tell you how Israel are the bad guys, the “oppressors” of the poor innocent Palestinians, and of the poor innocent fighters of Hezbollah, and Tucker Carlson telling you how lovely the Islamic regime are and that it’s Israel who are trying to build “Greater Israel” rather than the jihadists wanting the greater caliphate, the jihadists themselves tell you a very different story. I’ll bet most people haven’t ever seen this video, and I hope you’ll all share it everywhere. This is a young Hassan Nazrallah talking about who and what Hezbollah really is, who rules them, and importantly, what their true intentions and goals are: “We are an Iranian project, our leadership is in Tehran and not in Beirut. Our goals are to subjugate ALL the countries of the region, not just Lebanon, to the authority of the Supreme Leader in Tehran.” Do you get it now?

Wow... so wrong. 😡

The threat to American democracy is the campaign being run in democracy's name. They accuse Trump of threatening the independence of the judiciary. Two of the Supreme Court's nine sitting justices have gone on a public tour attacking their own Court and one colleague by name. Sotomayor ridiculed Kavanaugh's upbringing on stage in Kansas. Jackson spent nearly an hour at Yale Law School calling her own Court's procedural rules "corrosive," "utterly irrational," "scratch-paper musings." Sitting justices touring law schools to delegitimize their own institution is not independence of the judiciary. It's judicial delegitimization being run by the liberal judiciary itself. They accuse Trump of politicizing the Court. A Harvard Law professor has built a five-year academic career around the explicit thesis that the Court must be stripped of its constitutional authority. His book is timed for September 15, 2026, seven weeks before the midterms that will determine whether a Democratic Congress can actually strip it. They accuse Trump of being secretive. A Pulitzer-winning New York Times reporter is running a multi-year franchise built on leaked internal Supreme Court documents sourced from former clerks. She has said on CNN that her sources are former clerks, that her reporting has extracted "internal documents," and that the Chief Justice's response, formalizing a century-old confidentiality norm into signed agreements, is itself a "secretive" escalation. The reporter extracting confidential documents is calling confidentiality secretive. They accuse Trump of threatening press freedom. Legacy newsrooms synchronize coverage decisions across ostensibly independent organizations. The same stories get the same treatment at the same time from NYT, WaPo, the Atlantic, the New Yorker, CNN, MSNBC, and ProPublica. The same progressive legal commentators appear across every platform labeled as neutral experts. Hunter Biden's laptop was suppressed for two years by coordinated decision and then reported as suppressed two years late. Press freedom, in this operation's usage, means the freedom of this specific press to operate without pushback. They accuse Trump of norm-breaking. A sitting US senator traveled to Barcelona during active US-European diplomatic confrontations, stood on a stage hosted by a foreign head of government, and called his own country's elected government the greatest threat to democracy since the Civil War, to an international audience. That is not a norm Trump invented and broke. That is a norm held bipartisan for most of American history, now dead because Murphy and his peers decided it should be. They accuse Trump of undermining American institutions abroad. The first American Pope, elected roughly four months after Trump took office, has publicly criticized the elected American government in every visible dispute since the US entered the Iran war after meeting with multiple democrat political operatives. On April 13, aboard the papal plane to Algiers, Pope Leo XIV told reporters he had "no fear of the Trump administration" and would keep "speaking out loudly" against it. The Pope of Rome is now running an open political line against the American president, and American senators and journalists treat the Pope's political line as a moral authority that settles the argument. They accuse Trump of authoritarianism. The operation coordinating against Trump includes sitting US senators, sitting Supreme Court justices, the Pope of Rome, the New York Times, Harvard Law School, the philanthropic arms of multiple billionaires, the entire prestige media apparatus, and most of the institutional scholarly infrastructure of American legal academia. Authoritarianism is the rule of an unaccountable elite against the expressed political will of the governed. Look at the apparatus. Look at the governed. Ask yourself which is which. Watch what they tell you to fear. Watch who is telling you. Watch what they are doing while they tell you.
