Clarence Thomas scolds SCOTUS over ‘refusal to intervene’ on free speech case

By Katelynn Richardson | Daily Caller Justice Clarence Thomas wrote Monday that the Supreme Court should not let “confusion persist” regarding students’ free speech rights on university campuses. The Supreme Court declined Monday to hear a case questioning whether “bias response teams” on university campuses chill students’ free speech rights, though Thomas and Justice Samuel Alito would have taken the case. Over 450 colleges and universities nationwide have “bias response teams” that encourage students to report incidents of bias committed by their peers to school officials, Thomas noted in a dissent.

Zelensky says ‘End of War with Russia is very, very far away’

By AP via Breitbart A deal to end the war between Ukraine and Russia “is still very, very far away,” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said, adding that he expects to keep receiving American support despite his recent fraught relations with U.S. President Donald Trump. “I think our relationship (with the U.S.) will continue, because it’s more than an occasional relationship,” Zelenskyy said late Sunday, referring to Washington’s support for the past three years of war. “I believe that Ukraine has a strong enough partnership with the United States of America” to keep aid flowing, he said at a briefing in Ukrainian before leaving London.

Marco Rubio can’t say ‘peace is possible’ between Ukraine and Russia

By Jenny Goldsberry | Washington Examiner Secretary of State Marco Rubio mocked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky‘s demands for security guarantees when peace with Russia is still not guaranteed. Ukraine just passed its third-year anniversary since Russia invaded and war broke out. While Zelensky has maintained control of its capital, Kyiv, Russian President Vladimir Putin claims to have annexed Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhya, and Kherson regions in the south and east of Ukraine since September 2022. Rubio explained that speaking to Putin, after not a single European ally or former President Joe Biden was able to, is the way to end the war. “No one here is claiming Vladimir Putin is going to get the Nobel Peace Prize this year or that he should b...

Bondi says she was misled on Epstein documents

By Elizabeth Crisp | The Hill Attorney General Pam Bondi was duped into thinking she had all the files related to investigations into disgraced financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, she told Fox News host Mark Levin over the weekend while defending Thursday’s widely mocked document dump. “I kept saying, there has to be more. There has to be more,” Bondi said Saturday. “I was assured that’s it.” Epstein, who hobnobbed with celebrities, royalty and other powerful people, died by suicide in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.

Tim Walz says he may run for president in 2028 — despite failure of Harris campaign

By Isabel Keane | New York Post Failed 2024 Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz has said he would “certainly consider” running for president in 2028 — despite his crushing defeat alongside then-Vice President Kamala Harris this past November. “Look, I never had an ambition to be president or vice president. I was honored to be asked,” the Minnesota governor told “the New Yorker Radio Hour” on Sunday. “If I feel I can serve, I will. And if nationally, people are like, ‘Dude we tried you, and look how that worked out,’ I’m good with that.”  “If I think I could offer something … I would certainly consider that.” READ THE FULL STORY AT THE NEW YORK POST

Trump, Zelensky go at it in heated oval office debate

By David Zimmermann | National Review President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance traded heated barbs with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Friday, calling the wartime leader “disrespectful” and saying he should be more “thankful” for continued U.S. support. “You’re gambling with the lives of millions of people! You’re gambling with World War III!” Trump told Zelensky as the two sit next to each other in the Oval Office. “Have you said ‘thank you’ once?” Vance chimed in. “You went to Pennsylvania and campaigned for the opposition in October. Offer some words of appreciation for the Unites States of America and the president who’s trying to save your country.” READ THE FULL STORY AT THE NATIONAL REVIEW

IRS contractor Charles Littlejohn leaked Trump’s tax returns, but we’re now learning how much damage he really did

By Byron York | Washington Examiner For much of President Donald Trump‘s first term in office, the coalition of Democrats, activists, and media figures known collectively as the Resistance believed that obtaining Trump’s tax returns would be the key to bringing down the president. Finally, on Sept. 27, 2020, at the height of Trump’s reelection campaign, the New York Times reported that it had “obtained tax-return data extending over more than two decades for Mr. Trump and the hundreds of companies that make up his business organization, including detailed information from his first two years in office.” The paper published several long articles based on the information. Voila! The Holy Grail of the Resistance! The problem was the stories came and went and did not become the hug...
