Musk Backs German Populists: ‘Only the AfD Can Save Germany.’

Tech mogul Elon Musk believes “Only the AfD can save Germany,” referring to the populist, anti-mass migration Alternative for Germany party. The Donald Trump and Nigel Farage ally offered this endorsement in response to a video posted by Naomi Seibt, a Geman conservative commentator previously dubbed “the anti-Greta Thunberg.”

“Dear Elon, thank you so much for your note,” said AfD co-chairwoman Alice Weidel in a video response to the statement by Musk, who is of partly German descent.

“The Alternative for Germany, the AfD, is indeed the one and only alternative for our country; our last option, if you ask me,” she continued, wishing Musk, President-elect Donald J. Trump, and the American people “a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.”

Currently, the AfD is polling well ahead of Germany’s ruling Social Democrats, their junior coalition partners, the Greens, and their former coalition partners, the neoliberal Free Democrats (FDP). However, the AfD is behind the notionally center-right Christian Democratic Union (CDU), formerly led by Angela Merkel. Additionally, all of Germany’s establishment and far-left parties enforce a so-called cordon sanitaire against the AfD, barring any cooperation with the populist party.

Here’s How Republicans Can Quickly Respond to Virginia’s Gerrymandering.

Florida Republicans are convening a special session to consider redistricting following the Democrats’ gerrymandering of Virginia on Tuesday.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Following the Democrats’ successful gerrymandering referendum in Virginia on Wednesday, the Florida legislature will hold a special session. The session, which will run from April 28 to May, is being convened mainly “for the purpose of considering legislation related to the drawing of congressional districts,” alongside increased medical freedom and new consumer protections linked to artificial intelligence (AI).
📺 DETAIL: Florida Governor Ron DeSantis issued a proclamation convening the special session shortly before the Virginia referendum, in which the GOP establishment allowed the Democrats to eke out a narrow victory by spending only around $20 million on the referendum campaign, while the Democrats spent $62.3 million. Redistricting in Florida could net Republicans four to five new House seats, balancing out the Democrats’ expected gain in Virginia, but would require a snap referendum and a 60 percent threshold under the state constitution—a high bar with only a few months until the November midterms. DeSantis’s office is expected to transmit a proposal to the Florida Senate, which will be filed as a bill for consideration.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “Florida’s Constitution includes strict guidelines for what information the Legislature can and cannot consider when drawing new congressional districts. Regardless of the forum or format, we can only consider thoughts and feedback in keeping with constitutional standards. Senators should take care to insulate themselves from partisan-funded organizations and other interests that may intentionally or unintentionally attempt to inappropriately influence redistricting.” – Ben Albritton, President of the Florida Senate
🎯 IMPACT: Florida Senate President Ben Albritton (R) has warned state lawmakers that they cannot advance maps that “favor or disfavor a political party or incumbent,” and that anything they decide is likely to be subject to “significant litigation.” While hailing the Democrats’ gerrymandering in Virginia, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) has branded the Florida redistricting effort an “illegal scheme” and vowed to “aggressively target” Republican Florida Representatives Mario Díaz-Balart, Maria Elvira Salazar, Carlos Giménez, Kat Cammack, Anna Paulina Luna, Laurel Lee, Cory Mills, and Brian Mast.
📺 FLASHBACK: Redistricting has become a major issue in the run-up to the midterms in November. In mid-March, Senator Jim Banks (R-IN) invested millions to back GOP redistricting efforts. In December last year, the Supreme Court upheld a high-profile redistricting measure in Texas. In mid-January, the Democrats secured a legal victory at the Ninth Circuit to gerrymander the electoral map in California against Republicans.

Roblox Agrees to Pay $36 Million Over Child Grooming Concerns.

Roblox has reached settlements with the states of Alabama, West Virginia, and Nevada, committing to enacting new safety measures to protect children on the platform.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Roblox, the popular online game platform, has agreed to pay $35.78 million in settlements to Alabama, West Virginia, and Nevada following child safety concerns. They include commitments to provide safety features, such as mandatory age verification, content restrictions, and restricted chat access, as well as promote online safety and liaise with law enforcement. The settlements with Alabama and West Virginia were announced on Tuesday, while the settlement with Nevada was announced last Wednesday.
📺 DETAIL: California-based Roblox, with over 150 million daily active users, reached a $12.2 million settlement with Alabama, an $11.08 million settlement with West Virginia, and a $10 million settlement with Nevada. Roblox also agreed to spend $1.5 million on law enforcement liaison and $1 million on online safety awareness campaigns. Roblox is used by nearly half of the entire U.S. population of children under 16. Just over half of the platform’s user base is under 16, and a large share is under 13. Roblox has been accused on multiple occasions of exposing children to sexual predators and explicit content. Notably, the settlements impose content restrictions for under-16s and require age verification for chat access. Roblox will also use facial recognition and behavioral monitoring to verify users’ ages.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “This settlement sends a clear message to every platform operating in this space—you cannot turn a blind eye to the exploitation of children and expect to avoid consequences.” – Steve Marshall, Alabama Attorney General.
🎯 IMPACT: The settlements follow lawsuits against Roblox from other U.S. states, such as Florida and Iowa. On Monday last week, Roblox said it would introduce age-based accounts and stricter parental controls in response to mounting accusations that it is not taking the online safety of its young user base seriously enough.
📺 FLASHBACK: Roblox has faced criticism for years over its child safety practices. In March, a Roblox programmer was charged in Louisiana with 40 counts of child porn possession. In December, five men in New York were arrested for child exploitation after preying on minors via Roblox and Discord, a popular communication platform.

David Scott Becomes Fifth Sitting House Member to Die Since January 2025.

Representative David Scott (D-GA) has become the fifth House member to die in office since January 2025, raising concerns about the health and age of current lawmakers.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: U.S. Representative David Scott (D-GA) has died at the age of 80, becoming the fifth member of the House of Representatives to pass away while in office since January 2025.
📰 DETAIL: Scott had served in Congress for more than two decades, representing Georgia’s 13th District since 2003. He was known for his work on agricultural policy and food assistance programs, as well as for his role in the Blue Dog coalition. Before his time in Congress, he served in the Georgia state legislature, beginning his political career in the 1970s. At the time of his death, he was seeking a 13th term despite facing primary challengers and questions about his health. His death slightly widens the Republican majority in the House ahead of the midterms in November. The cause of death has not been publicly disclosed.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “We are all deeply saddened by the news of Rep. David Scott’s passing. For more than two decades, David faithfully served the people of Georgia’s 13th Congressional District and spent the majority of his life in service to others. We are lifting up David’s wife Alfredia, his two daughters, and his grandchildren in prayer as they mourn.” – House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA).
🎯 IMPACT: Scott’s death highlights ongoing concerns about the age and health of current lawmakers, as the number of deaths in office continues to rise. The worsening situation is likely to prompt discussions about the need for younger representation in Congress.

European Union’s Migrant Population Surges to 64.2 Million.

New data has exposed the unprecedented growth of the European Union’s migrant population, with especially significant increases in Germany and Spain.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: A new report by the Center for Research and Analysis on Migration has revealed that the migrant population of the European Union (EU) reached a record 64.2 million in 2025. This is an increase from 40 million in 2010, greater than the entire population of Italy, and approaching the entire population of France. The report notes particularly significant increases in Germany and Spain, with the latter having Europe’s fastest-growing migrant population last year.
📺 DETAIL: Published by the Center for Research and Analysis on Migration, citing Eurostat and United Nations (UN) Refugee Agency data, the report released on Wednesday reveals that the EU’s migrant population has been swollen by around 25 million new arrivals over the last 15 years. Germany‘s migrant population rose from 10 million in 2018 to nearly 18 million by 2025, with 72 percent being of working age. Spain added around 700,000 migrants in 2025 alone, bringing its migrant population to 9.5 million.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “Germany remains the main destination ‌for ⁠migrants in Europe, both in absolute terms and, to a significant extent, relative to its population.” – Dr. Tommaso Frattini, one of the report’s authors.
🎯 IMPACT: The rapid increase in migrant populations across the EU has significant implications for integration, public finances, and social services. Notably, Socialist Party-led Spain is currently regularizing hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants, who will, in time, have access to the entire EU thanks to the Free Movement migration regime within the bloc.
📺 FLASHBACK: Mass migration into Europe has been raised by President Donald J. Trump’s administration as a serious concern. In February, the U.S. leader said of the continent’s immigration and energy crises, “If they don’t solve both of them fast, Europe is not the same place.”

Brit Migrant Murderer Given Citizenship by Biden Found Dead in Jail.

An immigrant naturalized under the Biden government and accused of a triple homicide was discovered dead in his jail cell.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Olaolukitan Adon Abel, a 26-year-old naturalized immigrant and former United States Navy veteran, was found dead in his jail cell on Tuesday after being charged with murdering three people in Atlanta, Georgia, including a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) employee. Authorities are currently investigating the death, but do not suspect foul play.
📺 DETAIL: Abel, originally from the United Kingdom, was naturalized as a U.S. citizen uunder the Biden government in 2022. He was charged with the murder of Lauren Bullis, a 40-year-old auditor at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), 31-year-old Prianna Weathers, and 49-year-old homeless man Tony Matthews in the Atlanta metropolitan area in Georgia on April 13. Bullis was shot and stabbed to death while out walking her dog in Panthersville, Atlanta. Weathers was shot outside a fast-food restaurant in Decatur, Atlanta. Matthews died on Sunday after being shot near a shopping center in Brookhaven, Atlanta. Just over a week after the shootings on Tuesday evening, Abel was found unresponsive in his cell. Notably, he had prior convictions for battery against a police officer, obstruction, sexual battery, vandalism, and assault with a deadly weapon.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “A DHS employee, Lauren Bullis, was brutally shot and stabbed to death by Olaolukitan Adon Abel, a 26-year-old, born in the United Kingdom, who was naturalized by the Biden administration in 2022. These acts of pure evil have devastated our department and my prayers are with the families of the victims.” – Markwayne Mullin, Secretary for Homeland Security
🎯 IMPACT: Abel’s case raises questions about the vetting process for naturalization for immigrants. The Department of Justice (DOJ) under President Donald J. Trump issued a memo in July 2025 directing U.S. Attorneys to “prioritize and maximally pursue denaturalization proceedings” against naturalized immigrants involved in terrorism, espionage, and other serious criminal activities, and efforts to denaturalize immigrants who obtained citizenship via fraud have also intensified. Last month, Vice President J.D. Vance confirmed that Somalia-born Representative Ilhan Omar (D-MN) is under investigation for immigration fraud.

UK Air Force Suspends Trainee Who Labeled Islam ‘Greatest Threat.’

A Royal Air Force (RAF) cadet was suspended from his officer training course for saying that Islam is the greatest security threat to Britain, despite Islamists accounting for the vast majority of suspected terrorists in the country.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: A British Royal Air Force (RAF) cadet was suspended after stating during a training Q&A session shortly before Easter that Islam poses the greatest security threat to the country. The incident is under investigation, with the RAF citing “alleged inappropriate behavior.”
📺 DETAIL:  Supporters of the cadet point to statements from MI5, Britain’s domestic intelligence agency, that Islamists are the most significant terror threat to the country by a substantial margin. Retired Rear Admiral Chris Parry, now a candidate for Nigel Farage’s Reform Party, argued that the RAF was suppressing “critical thinking,” adding: “This is the fault of a system that is training its young people but not allowing them to express themselves and develop their thoughts.” The Free Speech Union branded the suspension “yet another example of a de facto Islamic blasphemy law embedding itself within British institutions.”
💬 KEY QUOTE: “If this cadet had answered ‘the far right,’ I doubt he would have been suspended.” – Chris Parry
🎯 IMPACT: The RAF has a history of controversial diversity policies, including unlawful discrimination against white male recruits, raising concerns that woke ideology is taking precedence over operational readiness. British state institutions are particularly sensitive to any perceived slight against Islam, with police and prosecutors recently charging a man who was stabbed by a Muslim while burning a Koran with harassment of the “religious institution of Islam.” This was amended following backlash, but the charges proceeded under a new form of words.

U.N. Org Says Strict MAGA Border Policy Saves Lives.

United Nations (UN) data reveals a massive decline in migrant deaths along high-risk routes to the U.S. during 2025, attributed to stricter border policies under President Donald J. Trump.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Migrant deaths along high-risk routes to the U.S. dropped from 1,272 in 2024 to 408 in 2025, according to the International Organization for Migration (IOM). The United Nations (UN) agency attributes the decrease to a decline in the number of people moving along dangerous illegal migration paths, coinciding with stricter border enforcement policies under President Donald J. Trump.
📺 DETAIL: The IOM, led by Joe Biden appointee Amy Pope, recorded significant drops in deaths across various regions, including a sharp decline in Caribbean migrants dying en route to the U.S. from 187 in 2024 to just five in 2025. Deaths in the Darien Gap, a notoriously perilous jungle route, also fell dramatically, from 174 in 2024 to just 10 in 2025. The fall suggests Trump’s policies have disincentivized travel along disrupted high-risk migration routes, saving over 1,000 lives compared to the prior year.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “Deaths recorded during migration decreased dramatically in 2025, from 1,272 in 2024 to 408 in 2025.” – International Organization for Migration report, April 21.
🎯 IMPACT: The data challenges the narrative promoted by pro-migration advocates who claim Biden’s border policies were more humane. Instead, it appears to prove that open-border policies of the sort practiced under Biden lead to increased migrant deaths by encouraging dangerous journeys, while “tough love” enforcement measures save lives by deterring them.
📺 FLASHBACK: During Biden’s term, relaxed border policies led to a surge in migrant deaths, with thousands perishing en route to the U.S. due to dangerous conditions, cartel exploitation, and treacherous terrain. The Darien Gap alone saw hundreds of fatalities annually under his administration. Similarly, migrant drownings fell in the Mediterranean and the Pacific when Italy and Australia enacted “stop the boats” policies intended to deny landing rights to migrants attempting to reach their countries by sea in the 2010s.

DATA: Congress Approval is Now in All-Time-Low Territory.

A Gallup poll reveals Congress’s approval rating has plummeted to near-record lows, driven by cratering support among self-identified Republicans.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: A Gallup poll released on Wednesday morning indicates that only 10 percent of Americans approve of Congress, approaching a historic low of nine percent last seen in 2013. Eighty-six percent disapprove, matching a historic high for disapproval last seen in 2015.
📰 DETAIL: The high disapproval is attributed to government shutdowns, including the partial shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and various scandals involving Congress members such as accused rapist Eric Swalwell. Approval ratings had briefly peaked at 31 percent in March last year but have since declined sharply. The decline has been driven largely by cratering support among self-identified Republicans, who gave Congress a 62 percent approval rating in March 2025 but now give it just 20 percent.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “Beyond the ongoing DHS funding impasse, congressional disapproval in Gallup’s April 1-15 poll may reflect Republicans’ frustration over Congress not passing legislation, including the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, which passed the House in 2025 and would require citizenship documentation to register to vote. Also, broader tensions over war powers related to the U.S. conflict with Iran, the effects of high gas prices, and ethics scandals involving two members of Congress that led to their resignations as the polling period was drawing to a close may be souring public opinion further.” – Gallup
🎯 IMPACT: The poll highlights a significant drop in approval from Republicans, who now rate the GOP-led Congress at just 20 percent, down from 63 percent shortly after President Trump’s inauguration.
📈 DATA: Conducted from April 1 to April 15, 2026, the Gallup poll surveyed 1,001 adults with a margin of error of plus or minus four percentage points.

Trump’s DOJ Says Far-Left SPLC Funded Extremists, Including Organizers of 2017’s ‘Unite the Right’ Rally in Charlottesville.

The Department of Justice has indicted the Southern Poverty Law Center, accusing the nonprofit of secretly funding extremist groups it publicly claims to oppose.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: The Department of Justice announced an 11-count indictment against the far-left Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) for alleged fraud and money laundering, including payments to neo-Nazi and Ku Klux Klan members. The indictment claims the SPLC funneled over $3 million to individuals associated with extremist groups over the past decade.
📺 DETAIL: Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche stated that the SPLC, which promotes itself as a civil rights organization tracking hate groups, instead paid leaders of groups like the Ku Klux Klan, Aryan Nations, and others. One recipient allegedly received $270,000 over eight years. FBI Director Kash Patel described the scheme as a “multi-million dollar fraud” designed to stoke racial hatred while misleading donors.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “The SPLC was not dismantling these groups. It was instead manufacturing the extremism it purports to oppose by paying sources to stoke racial hatred.” – Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche
👞 THE KICKER: One alleged informant, identified as “F-37,” is described as having been in the leadership chat for the 2017 Unite the Right event in Charlottesville, making racist posts under SPLC supervision and helping coordinate transportation for the event that ended with the “fine people hoax” and the death of leftist activist Heather Heyer.
🕰️ HISTORY: The SPLC has long been a polarizing entity, with critics accusing it of labeling conservative organizations as hate groups while allegedly failing to maintain transparency in its own operations. Founded in 1971 in Montgomery, Alabama by civil rights lawyers Morris Dees and Joseph Levin Jr, it emerged in the aftermath of the civil rights movement with an initial focus on using litigation to target the Ku Klux Klan. In 2018, the SPLC was forced to pay anti-extremist activist Maajid Nawaz $3.4m after wrongly labeling him a far-right extremist.

Pedophile Illegal Pleads Guilty to ‘Aggravated Crimes Against Nature.’

An illegal alien in Lake Charles, Louisiana, has admitted to repeated sexual abuse of a 12-year-old girl left in his care, resulting in her pregnancy.

PULSE POINTS
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Jose Lopez-Montoya, a 41-year-old illegal alien, pleaded guilty to aggravated crimes against nature by incest on Monday, after a 12-year-old girl in his care gave birth to his child in Lake Charles, Louisiana.
📺 DETAIL: In 2024, Lopez-Montoya was assigned as the guardian of a 12-year-old girl. In July 2024, the girl delivered a baby after being admitted to a hospital in Lake Charles. After the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office established that Lopez-Montoya was the girl’s guardian, he admitted to sexually abusing her over a two-year period and confirmed he is the father of the baby. His sentencing is scheduled for Tuesday, April 28.
💬 KEY QUOTE: “This was a very unfortunate situation. He was responsible for her well-being, and her mom and dad were not around, so this is a really disappointing situation. He’s a pretty sick individual.“ – Stitch Guillory, Calcasieu Parish Sheriff.
🎯 IMPACT: Lopez-Montoya faces a prison sentence ranging from 25 to 99 years. Notably, he had an active U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detainer at the time of his arrest, suggesting the abuse might have been avoided if he had been swiftly detained and deported. American society.
📺 FLASHBACK: Multiple instances of illegal aliens harming children have occurred over the first few months of this year alone. In early March, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) rearrested an illegal immigrant accused of kidnapping a four-year-old girl from a Long Island laundromat after being released back into the community by a local judge. In early April, a teen boy in Greene County, Missouri, begged for his life before being killed by an illegal, who was charged with first-degree murder.
