On Tuesday, Greene responded to House Freedom Caucus Chair Bob Good (R-VA), who suggested a motion could be introduced to force out Johnson, describing it as “the dumbest thing that could happen”. Greene pointed to the turmoil following a similar attempt by Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla) to unseat Speaker Kevin McCarthy last fall, which culminated in McCarthy’s removal as Speaker.
In criticizing a potential move against Johnson, Greene highlighted the stagnation in House activity following McCarthy’s ouster. “We haven’t passed any more appropriation bills since they threw out Kevin McCarthy. We have expelled a Republican member of Congress, we’re reducing our numbers,” she observed.
“I’m kind of sick of the chaos. I came here to be serious about solving problems, not to produce clickbait,” Greene concluded.
Former President Donald Trump was expected to deliver his own closing arguments in the politicized New York trial against him and his company this Thursday. In an update that came after the publication of this original story, the far-left linked Judge Arthur Engoron rescinded the right of Trump to do so, according to the Associated Press.
Trump, along with several associates, stands accused by Democrat New York Attorney General Letitia James of falsifying the value of The Trump Organization’s assets on key financial statements to fraudulently receive tax and insurance benefits.
The former president’s plans to deliver the closing arguments were initially approved by Judge Arthur Engoron, who now appears to have bowed to political pressure, again, to stop the move.
Letitia James’s office is asking Engoron to force Trump to pay nearly $370 million and to issue a lifetime ban on his doing real estate business in New York. She is also asking for a five-year ban on Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump from operating in the New York real estate industry.

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has sunk in the polls, falling from 84 percent approval at the end of 2022 to 62 percent approval at the end of 2023.
While still high overall, the Ukrainian leader’s approval rating in the Kyiv International Institute for Sociology (KMIS) surveys may be artificially inflated, with respondents paranoid about possible reprisals. Zelensky has banned most of his political opposition, and purged critics in the media, accusing them of sympathizing with Russia.
That his rating has still dropped by 22 points suggests he is finding it increasingly difficult to contain discontent over the war, after last year’s Western-backed counter-offensive failed with heavy losses. Eighteen percent of respondents openly reported that they do not trust Zelensky — up from just five percent in 2022.
Meanwhile, General Valery Zaluzhny, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU), had the trust of 88 percent of respondents, with the AFU at large on 96 percent.
This could spell trouble for Zelensky, as he has long been rumored to be at odds with the general. Zelensky fumed over the military leader’s admission that the war was a “stalemate” last year and has reportedly been attempting to undermine his authority on the battlefield.

Nearly 1,900 migrants currently being housed in a New York City tent shelter will be relocated to James Madison High School, due to concerns regarding incoming inclement weather, according to the office of New York City Mayor Eric Adams.
This decision, which Mayor Adams said is rooted in an “overabundance of caution,” has drawn criticism from residents and politicians who say the school facility is not an appropriate makeshift housing solution for the migrants. Inna Vernikov, a Republican councilwoman, called the decision to house the migrants in James Madison High School “unacceptable.”
“Our public schools are meant to be places of learning and growth for our children, and were never intended to be shelters or facilities for emergency housing,” Vernikov said in a statement.
New York City has been struggling with a surge of roughly 160,000 migrants since mid-2022, stretching the city’s resources and seriously hampering the city’s ability to provide vital services to its actual citizens. Mayor Adams has called upon federal agencies for increased support in areas such as funding and processing work permits. He’s also issued restrictions on when and where busses can drop off migrants, and has launched a $700 million lawsuit against the transportation companies operating migrant busses.

Police in Poland have stormed the nation’s presidential palace, still occupied by conservative Andrzej Duda. Cops took two ministers from the former Law and Justice (PiS) government to prison this week, despite the fact they had been awarded presidential pardons.
New globalist Prime Minister Donald Tusk, alongside the new Marshal (Speaker) of the Sejm (Legislature) Szymon Hołownia, have moved swiftly to persecute members of the former, right-wing government in moves similar to the Biden pursuit of Donald Trump.
Hołownia referred former interior minister and deputy interior minister Mariusz Kamiński and Maciej Wąsik to a chamber of the Supreme Court friendly to the new government, which ruled the pardons they previously received for “abuse of power” were invalid.
The pair are accused of exceeding their powers in the 2000s, when Kamiński headed the Central Anticorruption Bureau. Their party, Law and Justice, are calling them “political prisoners” who are being punished for fighting corruption.
Another chamber of the Supreme Court, importantly, has ruled their pardons were valid, while the Constitutional Tribunal has ruled the Supreme Court had no authority to review presidential pardoning powers in the first place.
Nevertheless, law enforcement felt forced to cooperate with Tusk, and though Kamiński and Wąsik holed up in the presidential palace under President Duda’s protection, officers entered when the President left to attend a meeting and dragged the duo to jail. Kamiński is now believed to be on hunger strike.
Poland is now in a full-blown constitutional crisis. Chief Justice of the Supreme Court Małgorzata Manowska, appointed by Law and Justice, is accusing Hołownia and the Supreme Court judge who ruled against the ministers of “illegal actions” that “constitute a significant violation of the legal order”.
So long as the European Union backs Tusk and the state authorities choose to enforce his agenda, Law and Justice and its supporters have little recourse beyond direct action, with protests already underway.

Investigators working across multiple agencies have arrested 11 people and seized enough fentanyl in Florida to kill over 1.7 million. They also seized 12 kilograms of cocaine (~26.5 pounds) and two firearms.
The Polk County Sheriff’s Office says they worked with partner agencies at the local, state, and federal levels to achieve the bust, which centered on Maximo Espinosa.
Espinosa, previously arrested for armed heroin trafficking, is alleged to be the head of a drug trafficking organization running cocaine and fentanyl in kilo amounts across Florida, the northeastern United States, Puerto Rico, and Mexico.
Other players caught in the sting included Pedro Mejia and Omar Veloz, both already on probation for federal drug trafficking offenses.
In a separate investigation into the alleged Colon-Colon Drug Trafficking Organization, the Polk County Sheriff’s Office arrested another six people allegedly involved in cocaine trafficking.
Suspected ringleader Roosevelt Colon-Colon was caught trying to throw away a handgun after law enforcement descended on a drug deal arranged by an undercover officer. Associate Julio Arroyo Rodriguez was also found to be carrying a loaded 9mm when he was arrested.
The Sheriff’s Office says they seized over two kilos of cocaine (~4.5 pounds) during the Colon-Colon sting.
Leading presidential candidate Donald Trump believes Joe Biden’s lax border policies are fueling the explosion in drug trafficking in recent years, warning that the drugs crisis and migrants carrying infectious diseases are “poisoning the blood” of the country.

Former First Lady Melania Trump announced on Tuesday the passing of her mother, Amalija Knavs, aged 78. The news comes after weeks of leftists and Republican opponents goading Trump online with the phrase, “Where’s Melania?” when she was spending time at the hospital bedside of her dying mother.
“Amalija Knavs was a strong woman who always carried herself with grace, warmth, and dignity,” Melania Trump wrote on Tuesday. “She was entirely devoted to her husband, daughters, grandson, and son-in-law. We will miss her beyond measure and continue to honor and love her legacy.”
It is with deep sadness that I announce the passing of my beloved mother, Amalija.
Amalija Knavs was a strong woman who always carried herself with grace, warmth, and dignity. She was entirely devoted to her husband, daughters, grandson, and son-in-law. We will miss her beyond…
Speaking at his New Year’s Eve celebration at Mar-A-Lago, the former President had expressed hope that Knavs would recover from her illness. He shared that Melania had been at a Miami hospital, tending to her sick mother.

French President Emmanuel Macron has appointed Gabriel Attal, a 34-year-old who has indicated he was bullied at school by Julian Assange lawyer Juan Branco, as France’s youngest and first openly gay Prime Minister.
Attal succeeds Elisabeth Borne, whose tenure has been marred by mass protests, ethnic riots, and the passage of a bill restricting immigration which enraged leftists and was later deemed unconstitutional.
Like Macron, Attal got his start in politics with the Socialist Party, formerly France’s major establishment left party but now supplanted by Macron’s Renaissance (formerly En Marche) party, which united a broad coalition of left-wing and neoliberal globalists. Attal left the Socialists to back Macron’s presidential bid.
Attal has previously suggested he was bullied for being homosexual at France’s elite, private l’Ecole Alsacienne school by Juan Branco, who became a lawyer for WikiLeaks’ Julian Assange.
Branco insists this is untrue.
France, like Russia, is a country where the Prime Minister very much plays second fiddle to the President. Some European countries where both roles exist, such as Germany and Ireland, reduce to President to more of a figurehead role, while the likes of Poland put the Prime Minister in the driving seat but afford the President certain powers to check and veto the government.

Department of Justice (DOJ) attorney James Pearce, who represented Jack Smith’s prosecution team against Donald Trump in Washington D.C. on Tuesday, worked as a law officer at the United Nations (UN) despite the fact his law degree did not actually allow him to practice law.
Pearce, who struggled to defend the DOJ position against Trump attorney Dean John Sauer before the D.C. Court of Appeals on Tuesday, is a history major who initially taught migrant children in Turkey after graduating. After a few years, he made efforts to “upskill” himself, enrolling at the American University in Cairo, Egypt, and graduating with a degree in human rights law.
He was able to parlay this into a job as a rule of law officer with the corruption-riddled United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in Darfur, Sudan — despite not actually being qualified to practice law.
“I was the only one among the rule of law officers in the office who didn’t have a degree that allowed me to practice law,” Pearce admitted in 2008. He also disclosed he “wasn’t really sure that” he and his UN colleagues “were accomplishing that much” in Darfur.
The low value of Pearce’s Egyptian degree forced him to return to college in the United States before he could reinvent himself at the DOJ, where he began work in 2015. He has subsequently been involved in several cases related to Jan 6, which he has described as “an act of domestic terrorism.”
His opposite number in Trump’s D.C. appeal, Dean John Sauer, has a much more robust background. Sauer is a former law clerk to Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, and a former Solicitor General of Missouri.

The European Union Home Affairs Commissioner, Ylva Johansson, has claimed that Europe needs to take in an additional one million migrants each year to make up for corporate workforce losses.
Asserting that workforce numbers are shrinking by similar figures, “legal migration should grow more or less with one million per year and that is really a challenge to do that in an orderly way,” Johansson said during a conference in Greece.
“Legal migration works very well, but it’s not enough,” she added, alluding to illegal migration as a means to plug the so-called labor shortages. Before her key EU role, Johansson worked previously as Sweden’s Employment Minister.
Migration to the European Union reached 3.5 million in 2023, with over 300,000 illegal entries, with countries like the United Kingdom, where the government is facing criticism for its handling of the migrant crisis, seeing record-high numbers.
