Katie Porter Cries ‘Racism’ When Asked If Truck Drivers Should Speak English:

Democrat Katie Porter, who is running for Governor of California, made it clear in the Democrat debate this week that she puts illegals above the safety of Americans.

The dangerous, and unfortunately often deadly, consequences of illegals with a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) many of who can not speak English or read road signs.

Safety experts estimate that as many as 130,000 illegal-alien truck drivers may be operating in the United States, with tens of thousands believed to have obtained licenses through illegitimate means.

According to the Department of Transportation, each of the 17,000 non-domiciled CDL holders has been issued notice that their license will expire within 60 days, as it no longer meets federal requirements.

During the debate, Porter was asked, “Do you believe that English proficiency, uh, language proficiency, should be strictly enforced for truck drivers?

Porter responded, “I would absolutely fight the Trump administration because the job of the California governor is to protect Californians, and right now that includes protecting them from Donald Trump... 

Questioning the safety of illegal drivers is ‘racism.’

[The article goes on to cite many Americans killed by illegal drivers. See link.]

Ready, aim, FIRE: Trump DOJ to restore old-fashioned death penalty means:

After a moratorium on the death penalty under the Biden administration, the Trump DOJ has reintroduced the traditional firing squad method as well as the lethal injection protocols adopted in Trump's first term.

In a memo released Friday, the DOJ claimed that the purpose of these measures is "to expedite death penalty cases" by "clearing the way for the Department to carry out executions once death-sentenced inmates have exhausted their appeals."

"The prior administration failed in its duty to protect the American people by refusing to pursue and carry out the ultimate punishment against the most dangerous criminals, including terrorists, child murderers, and cop killers," said a statement from acting Attorney General Todd Blanche. "Under President Trump’s leadership, the Department of Justice is once again enforcing the law and standing with victims."

Ship Of Shame: Australia Saved By Trump's Emergency Fuel Shipments:

It's no secret that Europe and western satellite nations like Canada and Australia have been rather hostile in rhetoric when it comes to the US.  This trend started well before the war in Iran and is owed largely to the ideological break between American conservative movements and European globalists and "multiculturalists".  

Despite these tensions and the fact that countries like Australia have made it clear that they will not aid the US in reopening the Strait of Hormuz (which Australia relies on for the majority of its energy supplies), Trump has offered considerable help to prevent Australia from facing total economic collapse.

Australians are calling it the "Ship of Shame" - A series of refined fuel imports from the US over the course of the past month which are preventing the country crossing the "dry up" threshold.  Australia imports around 90% of all it's refined fuels...

Without these US shipments, the country was four weeks away from critical shortages and potential industry shutdowns.  Australian political leaders have proven to be either incompetent or indolent in their responsibilities to prepare the country for energy emergency.  

The lesson is clear; economic interdependency is a mistake and "just in time" supply chains are foolish.  Furthermore, green energy is utterly useless and a form of economic suicide.  Australia is a perfect model for what not to do when developing a national energy policy.

Trump Cancels Witkoff, Kushner Islamabad Trip for Iran Talks: ‘Nobody Knows Who Is in Charge’

President Donald Trump announced Saturday that he has canceled a planned trip by U.S. representatives, including Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and adviser Jared Kushner, to Pakistan for talks with Iranian officials, citing time wasted on traveling and work and describing what he called “infighting” and “confusion” within Iran’s so-called “leadership.”

In a post on Truth Social, Donald Trump stated: “I just cancelled the trip of my representatives going is Islamabad, Pakistan, to meet with the Iranians. Too much time wasted on traveling, too much work! Besides which, there is tremendous infighting and confusion within their ‘leadership.’ Nobody knows who is in charge, including them. Also, we have all the cards, they have none! If they want to talk, all they have to do is call!!! President DONALD J. TRUMP”

Earlier in the week, Trump cited internal disagreements within Iran as a key obstacle to negotiations and extended a ceasefire, originally set for two weeks, without a fixed end date. He indicated that the extension was partly in response to requests from Pakistani leadership and the need for Iran to present a unified negotiating position.
