Residents of the Maryland town of Ridgely, located on the Eastern Shore, are apprehensive following the local government’s largely unexplained suspension of its entire police force. In its announcement of the move, the local government said other agencies would shoulder the public safety responsibilities. They offered no explanation for the suspension to town residents, who have now begun demanding transparency from the town officials.
Laura Cline, a Rutledge resident, expressed dissatisfaction with the lack of proper communication. “What’s very concerning is that they didn’t communicate with us in an honest and open way,” she said in a recent interview after the suspension announcement. She added: “Treat us with respect. We’re adults — thinking, rational adults who deserve the truth.” Other citizens have voiced similar concerns, feeling shocked and questioning their local lawmakers’ integrity.
Last week, according to the town’s website, Ridgely’s three-member commission had “suspended with pay the entirety of the Ridgely Police Department.” The notice stated the Office of the State Prosecutor has launched an investigation into potential misconduct. However, no other details were posted.
Currently, neighboring Caroline County’s sheriff is handling emergency calls for Ridgely. Maryland State Police have said they will also contribute to policing efforts in the town if needed. Before the police department’s suspension, its half-dozen employees provided emergency and law enforcement services for the town of 1,600 people.

Actor Nolan Freeman, known for roles in NCIS and The Rookie, has been arrested for purported involvement in the Capitol riot on January 6. Records obtained by POLITICO allege Freeman ‘occupied’ the Capitol for approximately 28 minutes, alongside fellow Trump supporters, after gaining entry through a damaged window.
Capitol Police video indicates Freeman joined others inside the building around 2:23 PM, dressed in a red hoodie beneath a black jacket and wearing a red cap with white lettering. He exited the building around 2:49 PM.
Freeman is charged with obstructing an official proceeding and unauthorized presence within a governmental building. He’s also accused of employing disruptive language, allegedly obstructing the orderly function of Congress.
On June 27, 2023, FBI agents visited Freeman at his Nevada residence. When questioned about his presence at the Capitol on January 6, he requested to consult with an attorney. Data subpoenaed from American Airlines revealed that Freeman traveled to D.C. on January 4 and returned on January 8.
Freeman, last seen on TV in a 2019 NCIS episode, was summoned to a Nevada Court on March 19. His next appearance is on April 2. According to the Justice Department, more than 1,358 persons have been charged regarding the Capitol riots, with a considerable number accused of attacking law enforcement.
Conservative influencer Isabella DeLuca was also charged this week for her involvement in the January 6 riots. Her alleged crime was touching a table.

A roughly 1,000-word article published in Vanity Fair on Friday does its best to inculcate its readers with the notion that former President Donald Trump and his millions of MAGA supporters are a violent threat to democracy. Its sources suggest otherwise.
The article, titled “Election Workers Are Bracing for Another Barrage of Trump Threats,” makes its thesis clear: “[M]onths of ‘rigged election’ conspiracy theories, harassment of election officials (and even individual poll workers), and underhanded schemes to overturn Trump’s election loss gave way to violent insurrection. Now, as he runs to return to power, Trump is once again raising the prospect of political violence…”
Presumably, if the MAGA movement’s ‘threat’ to democracy in general and poll workers in particular were so strong (and violent), poll workers would be resigning their positions in droves. Not so. Quoting Robert Stein, an elections expert at Rice University, the article states that the allegedly “hostile environment over the last four years hasn’t seemed to deter temporary poll workers; his research indicates they remain ‘very committed’ to the groundwork of democracy. ‘They take seriously what they’re doing.’”
Lisa Deely, an election worker and the main subject of Vanity Fair’s article, also seems unperturbed by the supposed specter of political violence emanating from Trump and his supporters and makes it clear that she does not truly believe she is in any real danger:
“Deeley… said she is bracing for the political temperature to start ‘climbing higher again’ as general election season begins in earnest. Has that ever made her consider leaving the profession herself? ‘Honestly, yes,’ she told me… But then, ‘there’s the other side: I feel a responsibility,’ she said. ‘So I’m not going anywhere.’”
With Bidenomics an abject failure and Biden’s foreign policy record just as bad, “threat to Democracy” is the only thing left with which the Biden campaign and its supporters have to message. If Vanity Fair‘s latest contribution to those efforts is anything to go by, it won’t work.

Brynn Tannehill — a transgender activist, opinion columnist, and technical analyst with the RAND Corporation — is continuing the proliferation of the Trump ‘bloodbath’ lie peddled by the corporatemediaallies of the Biden government. However, the RAND Corporation analyst adds additional hysterics in his essay for The New Republic — with predictions that a new Trump presidency will result in political persecution and a fascist dictatorship, a civil war, balkanization, or a split into two Americas.
The RAND Corporation analyst also claims he has “something of a track record of predicting the outcomes of elections involving Trump,” adding that he predicted post-2016 election “unrest.” Tannehill also makes the absurdclaim that there was a wave of state-level anti-trans legislation that made most of the country “a no-go zone for trans people.”
DEMOCRAT SWEEP IN 2024.
According to Tannehill, if Joe Biden is re-elected and Democrats control both houses of Congress after 2024, Trump supporters “will be incited to violence.” However, Tannehill contends it will play out much like the January 6, 2021, Capitol riots. From here, he dives into the fantastical, theorizing that Republican-controlled states will ignore federal authority with Supreme Court backing and effectively divide the nation in two.
REPUBLICAN COUP AGAINST BIDEN.
If Biden wins re-election but Republicans retain the House, Tannehill predicts Speaker Mike Johnson will refuse to certify the election — and despite not being a cabinet member, Johnson will invoke the 25th Amendment to remove Biden from office. In effect, this would allow House Republicans to elect Trump as President. Tannehill claims that the U.S. military would put down any resistance to the move after Trump invokes the Insurrection Act.
TRUMP ‘MASSACRES’ RESISTANCE LIBS.
In the instance that Trump wins the Electoral College but loses the popular vote, Tannehill predicts Republicans will institute ‘Christian Nationalism.’ This, he contends, will result in an America with “no immigrants, no trans people, no Muslims, no abortion, no birth control” and federally funded Christian schools. Tannehill then fantasizes about a revolt by Democrat states, which Trump puts down with massacres under the auspices — again — of the Insurrection Act.
FASCIST AMERICA.
Tannehill’s final fantasy is one in which Donald Trump wins both the Electoral College and the popular vote. In this instance, the RAND analysis says democracy will die, and fascism will be enshrined in America. “For most people, life will be boring and tolerable. For the people targeted by the regime, it will not be easy to survive in the U.S. It will also lead to a wave of people (particularly trans individuals) attempting to flee to other countries,” Tannehill says of his final scenario.

Editor’s Notes
Behind-the-scenes political intrigue exclusively for Pulse+ subscribers.
Far-left Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez told CNN’s Jake Tapper that authorities should seize President Trump’s New York assets if he continues to argue that the $454 million judgment against him in the Empire State is unfair and worthy of appeal. She suggests that Trump may try and get his hands on cash through “political corruption,” so seizing his property is safer.
“I think that what we are dealing with politically is the much larger and much more grave and serious pressure of having this judgment against Donald Trumpand him being in this degree of debt and the financial pressures that he is under and what he is subject to do in order to obtain those assets,” Ocasio-Cortez told CNN.
“I actually think that there is risk in not seizing these assets and the open window that exists in him trying to secure these funds through other means,” she added. “We’ve seen a lot of interesting transactions happening with Truth Social and other means. And there’s a very real risk of political corruption.”
Her appearance comes just days after she claimed in Congress that “RICO” (racketeering and corruption) is not a crime, while RICO is specifically being used to go after President Trump and his supporters in Georgia.

Washington’s Democratic Governor Jay Inslee signed a law forcing the state’s public schools to include ‘LGBTQ history’ in their curriculum. Proposed back in 2023, Senate Bill 5462 was intended to broaden “inclusive learning standards and instructional materials” through a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) framework.
The legislation mandates that the curriculum incorporate the history and contributions of individuals associated with the LGBTQ movement and those from diverse racial, ethnic, and religious backgrounds. The legislation requires that the updated curriculum be in place by October 1, 2025.
Democratic State Senator Marko Liias, known for his far-left political positions, was one of the bill’s primary sponsors. Last year, Liias supported the controversial Senate Bill 5599, which was criticized for motivating minors to leave their homes to gain access to sex changes and abortions sans parental permission and funded by taxpayers. The debatable bill has been referred to as “state-sanctioned kidnapping.”
Washington’s move to enshrine ‘LGBTQ history’ into its school curriculum comes amidst a nationwide backlash against LGBT indoctrination. It also comes as an increasing number of other states are divesting from DEI programs.

An 82-year-old woman from Port Townsend, Washington, is threatening her local YMCA with a lawsuit after it banned her from confronting a transgender ‘woman’ in the women’s locker room. Julie Jaman says she approached the individual, later identified as ‘Clementine’ Adams, after noticing his attention directed towards young girls. Her ensuing query about Adams’s biological sex resulted in accusations of discrimination.
“I was showering in the women’s dressing room when I saw a man wearing a woman’s swimsuit watching little girls undress. I was obligated to speak up and ask for help,” Jaman said. “Since that moment, I have suffered mob-like attacks, public humiliation, and widespread mendacious reporting,” she continued.
The Center for American Liberty, representing Jaman, has called for an exhaustive investigation. The group’s CEO, Harmeet Dhillon, insists the YMCA and the city are tarnishing Jaman’s reputation through a devious smear campaign, causing significant emotional distress.
Jaman visited the police station to report the incident. Instead, she allegedly became the subject of an investigation based on reports from the YMCA.
The Center for American Liberty emphasizes that the primary concern should be the potential risk to minors. The organization has urged the city and YMCA to rescind Jaman’s ban, apologize, and provide financial compensation or else risk legal action. Dhillon’s letter warns that unwavering stances on transgender ‘rights’ should not overlook probable dangers posed to children in private spaces.
Jaman’s ordeal highlights the increasing concerns about the risks posed to child safety by the transgender movement.

The European Union (EU) has officially initiated negotiations to absorb Bosnia and Herzegovina, one of Europe’s only Muslim-majority states.
“Congratulations! Your place is in our European family. Today’s decision is a key step forward on your EU path,” declared Charles Michel, European Council president, Charles Michel, the President of the European Council.
Bosnia is still suffering the effects of the wars that wracked the Balkans during the breakup of Yugoslavia, and the government is at odds with the Serb minority in the separatist-minded Republika Srpska region. It could, therefore, prove to be one of the EU’s most controversial acquisitions, with the bloc still requiring it to meet various demands on corruption and electoral and judicial reform before accession.
EU leaders have also called on Brussels to “swiftly” move ahead with preparing the ground for Moldova and Ukraine, one at war and both home to substantial ethnic Russian populations, to accede.
All such member states would eventually enter into the Free Movement migration regime if admitted to the EU, and gain access to a budget that has become increasingly strained since Brexit.
The European Council has just decided to open accession negotiations with Bosnia and Herzegovina. Congratulations!
Your place is in our European family.

The National Review claims that former President Donald Trump’s defamation lawsuit against the ABC News network and George Stephanopoulos is a “dud.” Andrew C. McCarthy, a contributing editor to the once venerable conservative publication and former Assistant U.S. Attorney, argues Stephanopoulos’s claims that the former President was ‘found liable for rape’ — while ‘inaccurate’ — are not ‘false.’ The ABC News host made the false assertions during a hostile interview with Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) in early March.
Earlier this week, attorneys for former President Trump filed a lawsuit against ABC News in response to Stephanopoulos’s claims made during the Mace interview. The National Pulse previously reported that the filing alleges Stephanopoulos and ABC knowingly disseminated false information during the show, “This Week with George Stephanopoulos,” mischaracterizing court verdicts and thereby damaging Trump’s public standing. Trump’s attorneys contend that while a civil court found the former President liable for “sexual abuse,” he was not found liable for rape.
McCarthy, however, contends that Stephanopoulos’s distinction between sexual abuse and rape doesn’t constitute defamation. “Nevertheless, inaccurate is not the same as false, which I don’t believe the partisan commentator’s statement was,” the former U.S. Attorney writes, adding: “Trump, moreover, did not suffer any material harm.”
The National Review writer continues, stating, “I don’t believe there would be a viable defamation case against Stephanopoulos even if Trump weren’t a public figure.” McCarthy concludes that, in his opinion, the “allegedly defamatory statement is not actionable” and was not made with “actual malice or reckless disregard for the truth.”
McCarthy does, at least, acknowledge that Stephanopoulos is “a partisan hack” who defended former President Bill Clinton against credible sexual assault allegations.

Prince Harry faces scrutiny following more accusations of severe human rights abuses by the African conservation charity where he serves as the director. The allegations involve rangers under the management of African Parks, a charity that oversees parks in 12 African nations and claims to run conservation efforts by collaborating with local communities.
The reported abuses emerge from Zambia’s Bangweulu Wetlands, where African Parks has overseen land management since 2008. The alleged abuses include violent beatings and extra-judicial killings and have cast a shadow on the charity’s operations. These unsettling claims of violence follow previous reports of African Parks armed guards beating, raping, and torturing the Baka tribespeople in the Republic of Congo.
According to the reports, “12 people have been shot dead or beaten to death,” and poaching suspects were “paraded naked in front of their families and neighbors.” African Parks rangers allegedly killed a man who was caught fishing. ‘They just beat him — but not a single ranger has been imprisoned,” a local said.
The people of Bangweulu claim they endure intimidation to deter them from hunting and fishing activities on their own land. The same land is also frequented by tourists on safari ventures that can come at a high price. The most chilling allegation cites a September 2021 incident where a local marketplace was attacked, causing injuries to several villagers, including children.
Despite these grave accusations, the charity maintains it has “zero tolerance” for human rights violations and has engaged a law firm to investigate the allegations. While Prince Harry has voiced concerns about the allegations, there is no suggestion that he had prior knowledge of the incidents in Zambia.
