Trump’s SCOTUS Is On the Verge of DeFanging The Deep State.

The Supreme Court (SCOTUS) heard oral arguments yesterday for two cases that may result in a significant clawback of abuse by the executive – particularly Joe Biden’s energy and climate regulations.

At the core of both legal challenges is what’s known as the “Chevron Doctrine” – essentially the idea that if a law is ambiguous, the executive branch gets to interpret it however they’d like (within reason).

  • The two cases being heard [Relentless v. Department of Commerce and Loper Bright v. Raimondo] raised identical legal questions.
  • In the case of Loper Bright, They’re a family-owned herring fishing company that the U.S. Commerce Department is forcing to pay the salary of a federal monitor to sail with them and police their practices.

The central argument against Chevron is that it violates the separation of powers because Congress, not the executive branch, must write laws.

History of the Chevron Doctrine: SCOTUS created it back in 1984 in a case called Chevron U.S.A., Inc. v. Natural Resources Defense Council, Inc. Essentially, the Court said that if a law is unclear or ambiguous, then courts should defer to that interpretation of the federal agency as long as it’s within the agency’s authority.

Put in context today; the Chevron Doctrine has been used and abused by the Biden regime to force through their job-killing radical climate agenda without Congressional approval.

What went down during oral arguments? According to SCOTUS Blog, they showed the Court is “likely to disregard Chevron.” While the three liberal justices expressed support for the existing interpretation, the conservatives made statements critical of the status quo:

  • Justice Brett Kavanaugh argued: “It’s the role of the judiciary historically under the Constitution to police the line between the legislature and the executive to make sure that the executive is not operating as a king.”
  • Justice Neil Gorsuch argued that Chevron virtually always works for federal agencies and against the “little guy.”

Big picture: If Chevron is overturned, it will be a big win for conservatives and former President Trump, who appointed three of the justices.

UK Cops Allow ‘Trans Women’ to Strip Search Females, With Those Who Object Cited for ‘Hate’.

At least 35 out of 47 police forces in the United Kingdom allow biologically male but “trans-identifying” police officers to strip search female detainees. Some said they would sanction detainees who objected to being stripped by trans officers, and possibly treat their objections as a crime.

The Women’s Rights Network (WRN) submitted Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests to British police forces asking if they would require female detainees to let biologically male trans officers strip search them. Thirty-five said they would, five offered unclear responses, and three did not respond. Only one said they had not implemented such a policy, with the remaining forces saying the policy was under consideration.

Most of the forces based their strip search policy on “self-identification” — rather than legal gender change — despite this having no standing in law. The same policy allows biologically male detainees claiming to be women to insist a female police officer searches them.

“Policewomen will be forced to comply and strip search men, for fear of disciplinary action and loss of their jobs,” the WRN warned.

In addition, a number of forces said they would punish women who resisted being strip-searched by men.

Avon and Somerset Police said, “a woman objecting to a search would find herself having a crime recorded if her refusal was deemed to be based on ‘discriminatory views.'”

Leicestershire Police said that “[i]f the detainee objects to being searched by an officer/staff member, based on the detainee’s perception that the officer is trans, then this should be challenged, and if the circumstances amount to it, then the incident is to be recorded as a hate incident.”

Non-White Americans To Become Majority By 2050.

An analysis has revealed that so-called “multicultural” Americans will make up the majority of the country’s population by 2050, confirming the so-called “conspiracy theory” of the “great replacement” often derided by corporate media outlets and far-left politicians.

Using data from the American Community Survey, the consumer research firm discovered that America’s multicultural population increased by nearly four million since 2021. Approximately 192.2 million white Americans comprise about 58 percent of the population currently. Black, Hispanic, Asian, and other races account for roughly 141.1 million Americans, the group’s analysis found. By 2050, the population of Hispanic Americans is expected to increase by six percent, while the white population is expected to decrease by about 11 percent.

“The growth in multicultural populations in the U.S. means these segments wield immense influence,” Sudipti Kumar, director of multicultural Insights at Collage Group, said in a statement to The Hill. “Their desire for diverse perspectives and a deep understanding of their cultural identity by brands and organizations will be ever more critical in the future,” she said.

The analysis also suggests the increase in population could have significant implications for political outcomes.

Hispanics are driving the drastic demographic changes occurring in the nation, accounting for over 75 percent of the U.S. population group over the past two years. This is likely largely due to the Biden regime’s wilful mishandling of the border crisis.

CDC Axed Alert Warning of Connection Between Heart Inflammation and COVID-19 Vaccines.

A draft alert to state and local health officials warning of a possible connection between rising myocarditis cases and COVID-19 vaccines was pulled by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) before it could be sent. The alert addressed evidence tying heart inflammation to two of the mRNA vaccines manufactured by Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna, according to documents obtained by the Epoch Times.

The CDC utilizes the Health Alert Network (HAN) to push important alerts and notices to state and local health agencies, hospitals, and doctors across the country. An email from bondage-obsessed Dr. Demetre Daskalakis in May 2021 revealed the existence of the draft HAN alert. “This is the most recent draft of an alert as discussed. Happy to discuss,” the doctor wrote to two other senior CDC colleagues, Drs. Henry Walke and John Brooks, with the email’s subject line reading: “draft alert on myocarditis and mRNA vaccines.”

However, a spokesman for the three doctors said instead of sending the HAN notice, however, CDC officials decided to include the information in the draft alert as part of a May 2021 CDC ‘clinical consideration’ guidance document. “The clinical consideration reached the provider audience as the HAN would have,” the spokesperson said.

Just one month before the CDC shelved the draft alert addressing concerns over rising myocarditis cases, the government agency used the HAN system to distribute a notice regarding connections between the Johnson & Johnson vaccine and blood clotting and low platelet levels in some patients. Some health professionals say this points to a double standard.

In a recent interview, California epidemiologist Dr. Tracy Hoeg questioned the disparate treatment of the two alerts: “Why would they issue one for the J&J vaccine for the blood clots but not for myocarditis post-mRNA vaccination?”

CNN May Start Charging to Watch News Clips on Cell Phones.

CNN’s new chief executive, Sir Mark Thompson, is considering ways to make people pay to watch news clips on their cell phones as people increasingly turn away from cable news.

Sir Mark said he did not think anyone had yet “cracked the code” on how moving to a subscription model “truly translates to a great news experience,” but noted younger consumers generally get their news from their smartphones relatively early in the day.

They should be willing to pay for that, he said, provided his network “can figure out a way of [making] sure it’s a high quality, differentiated product” on offer.

Sir Mark cautioned he was “not even sure that subscription is the right pathway for CNN.” Still, he said he “do[es] think we need to start experimenting and exploring in the broader sense direct-to-consumer relationships and potentially direct-to-consumer paying relationships.”

The British CNN chief is a former President and CEO of The New York Times and, before that, Director-General and CEO of the state-owned BBC and Channel 4 in his home country.

He will be hoping any new subscription model he adopts does not go the way of the CNN+ streaming service, which tanked within a month of being launched in 2022.

FOGH-REIGN INTERFERENCE: Ex NATO Chief Tells Biden to Cut Deal to Aid Ukraine, Beat Trump.

Former NATO chief Anders Fogh Rasmussen is urging the Democrats to make concessions to the GOP on border control — if only to secure further funding for the Ukraine war and ensure Joe Biden is re-elected.

“If I were asked by Democrats what to do, my advice would be to accommodate Republican views on the border issue and create a package with four elements: support for Ukraine, support for Israel, support for Taiwan, and solve the border issue,” said Rasmussen, who is also a former Prime Minister of Denmark.

“President Biden has an interest in solving [the immigration] issue before the election campaign starts in earnest,” he added.

Rasmussen’s stress was not on securing the U.S. southern border for the sake of the country or its people, but for the sake of keeping Donald Trump out of office: “If I were in the leadership of the Democratic campaign, I would not hesitate to close this issue — to accommodate Republicans to make it a non-issue in the coming election campaign,” he explained.

The Dane also saw fit to comment on the GOP primary, expressing his support for war hawk neoconservative Nimarata ‘Nikki’ Haley as someone “very much in line with my thinking about world affairs.”

Whores for Whores: Prostitutes ‘Completely Booked’ Near Davos as Elites Attend World Economic Forum.

High-end prostitution services are “completely booked” in eastern Switzerland as global elites descend on the Alpine resort town of Davos for the World Economic Forum (WEF) summit.

An invitation-only event run by Klaus Schwab, this year’s summit is hosting the likes of President Emmanuel Macron of France, President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen, and U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan.

While summit attendees are ostensibly focused on achieving lofty goals related to climate change, net-zero, and censoring speech for the greater good, the brisk trade done by escort service ‘Titt4Tat’ suggests many have ulterior motives.

“All local service providers are completely booked during the WEF week,” said service owner B. Konrad.

The escort “services” do not come cheap: one reported a typical booking “takes between four and twelve hours,” with the longer sessions costing around 2,000 Swiss francs (~$2,300).

Konrad said some women sign up as escorts in hopes their elite customers might open the door to a new career for them.

“An escort from Germany recently reported that she got a new job as a consultant for a large company through her contacts at the WEF,” he said.

‘Rust’ Movie Set Armorer Offered Leniency for Explanation of Live Rounds in Alec Baldwin Gun.

The armorer at the center of the “Rust” film shooting case, Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, was reportedly sent an ultimatum via email by special prosecutor Kari Morrissey in September, offering her leniency if she disclosed how live rounds made it on to the set — and promising additional felony charges if she didn’t.

“I feel very strongly [Gutierrez-Reed] has some notion of how the live rounds came on set,” Morrissey wrote in an email published by Variety. “I certainly respect her right not to come forward with that information and to stay silent, however if she were to come forward and answer some of these questions that plague the victims in this case that would go a long way toward getting her a favorable resolution,” Morrissey’s email continued. “If she chooses not to, while I respect her decision, I will proceed with the additional felony charges we spoke of.”

Gutierrez-Reed did not take that prosecutor’s “deal.” Her lawyer, Jason Bowles, took the letter as a threat to “either falsely confess to bringing the live rounds on set, or face additional charges,” reports Variety. In response, Morrissey kept her word and leveled more charges against Gutierrez-Reed, including a 4th-degree felony charge for allegedly carrying a gun into a liquor store.

Gutierrez-Reed pleaded not guilty to the new charges. Her trial is expected to begin in February. Gutierrez-Reed was in charge of the weapons on set during the filming of “Rust.” On October 21, 2021, Alec Baldwin, star of the film, discharged his “prop” firearm, killing cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and injuring director Joel Souza.

CCP Scientists Submitted COVID Sequence to Database Weeks Before Admitting They Had One, Then Deleted It.

Chinese Communist Party (CCP) regime scientists had access to a SARS-CoV-2 sequence weeks before they handed one over to the United Nations (UN), according to documents uncovered by House Energy and Commerce Committee Republicans. The sequence was even submitted to a U.S. database, but it was deleted when U.S. officials began asking questions about it.

Dr. Lili Ren, working for a pathogen research institute attached to the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, submitted a sequence for SARS-CoV-2, which causes COVID, to the U.S. National National Institutes of Health (NIH) database GenBank on December 28th, 2019.

Not until January 11th, 2020, was a sequence for the villy published; however, when China submitted the information to the UN’s World Health Organization (WHO). The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says the WHO sequence was in the hands of the Chinese version of the CDC by January 5th but was not shared with scientists overseas.

Ren’s earlier, unpublished sequence “was nearly identical” to the one given to the WHO weeks later, Health and Human Services (HHS) Assistant Secretary for Legislation Melanie Egorin told the House Energy and Commerce Committee.

The Chinese researcher ignored the NIH when asked for further details on the December sequence; however, it was quietly deleted from the GenBank database on January 16th.

Committee Chairwoman Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers said the findings prove the U.S. “cannot trust any of the so-called ‘facts’ or data provided by the CCP and calls into serious question the legitimacy of any scientific theories based on such information.”

Ren is attached to U.S.-funded coronavirus projects led by EcoHealth Alliance. EcoHealth Alliance leader Peter Daszak has links to Anthony Fauci and is still using U.S. funding to experiment with exotic viruses from bats and other animals.

NYT: New Hampshire is ‘High Water Mark’ for Haley, Who ‘Can’t Win’ Due to Positions on Immigration, Social Security, and Foreign Wars.

On Wednesday, the New York Times opinion page admitted the political reality for ex-South Carolina Governor Nimrata ‘Nikki’ Haley: she lacks a realistic path to victory for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination.

“But even if Ms. Haley does well in New Hampshire, it won’t matter,” Damon Linker writes, adding: “That’s because Ms. Haley is starkly out of step with the evolution of her party over the past decade.”

Former President Donald Trump’s appeal among non-college-educated voters poses an insurmountable hurdle for Haley, according to the Linker, a senior lecturer in the department of political science at the University of Pennsylvania. These voters have “grown weary of candidates emphasizing cuts to entitlements and taxes on the wealthy while also favoring liberal rates of immigration, free-trade agreements that resulted in manufacturing jobs being shipped abroad.”

Haley’s vocal support for raising the retirement age, slashing social security, and cutting other entitlements has been a persistent point of criticism against the former South Carolina Governor on the campaign trail. Her embrace of U.S. interventionism abroad, especially in Ukraine, has also proven to be out of step with much of the Republican electorate — though not with Democrat mega-donors.

Haley finished third place in Monday’s Iowa Republican Caucus, gaining only eight Republican convention delegates to former President Donald Trump’s twenty delegates. The former President won the Caucus by a historic margin with 51 percent of the vote to Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’s 21.2 percent and Haley’s 19.1 percent.

“New Hampshire is overwhelmingly likely to end up as the high-water mark for her campaign,” the Times says of the Haley campaign, noting that Republicans will still prefer Trump as “they’d rather go into the general election with someone they feel they can trust.”
