At NYPo, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro’s home set on fire by arsonist while his family slept. Especially notably, Shapiro is Jewish, and it was done after the Passover Seder, making the presumption of a hate crime reasonable. Then, Suspect arrested, charged with terrorism in arson attack on Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro’s residence as family slept inside. Insty says THAT WAS FAST: "Suspect arrested in arson attack on Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro’s residence as family slept inside. “Investigators believe the attack was ‘targeted,’ but haven’t determined a specific motive.”" Althouse has pictures from The Governor's mansion, after the fire. "The man arrested for the crime, Cody Balmer, 38, has confessed, the NYT reports . . . I looked at Balmer's Facebook feed last night, and — aside from one obscure meme — I saw no politics or bigotry. I didn't scour the whole thing, but I went back years. My rough impression was of an aimless young man hanging around with other young men, in the manner of an unpromising teenager. But now I see that he's 38." I'm with Cynical Publius @CynicalPublius, "Let me state quite clearly that this is utterly unacceptable in every possible way. There is no room for political violence on the American scene, no matter what you think about someone's politics. Of course, this could be based in antisemitism as well, but it's too soon to tell. Maybe Hamas sympathizers as well? Again, too soon to tell. I do have one other question though--why does the governor of one of America's most populous states not have 24/7 security?"

Bob Hoge at RedState notes Not Known for Squishy Takes, Stephen Miller Says Tariffs Will Save US From 'Complete Economic Domination.' Tom Tradup at TownHall predicts President Donald J. Trump Is About to 'Roll' the Communist Chinese. Sundance at CTH had his usual Sunday line up, President Trump Exempts Most Chinese Consumer Electronics, Tech Products and Components from Reciprocal Tariffs, Sunday Talks: Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett Explains China and Global Tariff Distinctions, and Sunday Talks: Secretary of Commerce Outlines Purpose of Tariff “Exemptions” – Sector Specific Tariffs Coming Soon.

WokeSpy reports Trump Smacks Down Bloomberg Reporter’s “Stupid” Anti-Tariff Question in Midflight. annmarie hordern@annmarie, "Me: Is there a “Trump put?” Trump: “I think your question is so stupid. I don't want anything to go down, but sometimes you have to take medicine to fix something.”" John Ʌ Konrad V@johnkonrad "“Starting in 2028, ships face fees up to $380 per ton” Everyone losing their minds over Trump’s 10% tariffs is dead silent about the UN’s “green” tariff hitting every import & export on Earth. If you’re outraged by Trump but not this, you’re not anti-tariff, you’re a hypocrite." Quote, gCaptain @gCaptain, "IMO Makes History with First Global Carbon Pricing Scheme for Shipping, Despite Mixed Reactions https://gcaptain.com/imo-makes-hist." Steve Moore at Hat Hair says Big, Beautiful Tax Cuts Should Offset Any Tariff Increases. Nicole Gelinas at CJ explains How America’s Obsession With “Too Big to Fail” Led to Trump’s Tariffs.

Bob Hoge hears Hakeem Jeffries Tries to Embarrass Hegseth With Lame NSFW 'DEI' Joke—SecDef Flattens Him With Receipts "These DEI hires in the Trump administration, like Pete Hegseth, the so-called Secretary of Defense – Dumb Effing Individuals – continue to try to test our resolve and cancel our history." "That's how far they have fallen. It's astonishing, not surprising," Hegseth told Fox News' Maria Bartiromo. "Of course, they don't like the fact that we're ripping DEI out of the military and making it colorblind and merit-based." At Fox, Pete Hegseth says Hakeem Jeffries' 'dumb effing individuals' jab is evidence of how far Dems 'have fallen'. Com Def reports Seeking Stability, Hegseth Bolsters U.S. Troop Presence and Reaffirms Panama's Control Over Canal. Cathy Salgado at PJM explains Here’s Why Some Unvaxxed Military Aren’t Taking Deal to Return. "Former members of the Air National Guard, Air Force, and Space Force must first sign a form acknowledging that they “voluntarily separated” or allowed their service to lapse, and that their “decision to separate was made freely and without coercion.” That is simply untrue, and R. Davis Younts, a lawyer representing some vets who had to leave the military over the mandates, explained, “I talked to several clients who were forced out,” who “have no interest in signing the document,” but otherwise would “gladly come back in. They don’t care much about back pay, but they are not going to sign a false statement just to come back in.”"
She's back, DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican "Over the last few months, we've come to a realization that should have landed much harder: NGOs weren't just adjacent to government, they were the parallel government. We were shocked. I was too. But looking back, it's exactly what you'd expect. NGOs operate outside the chain of command. They answer to no electorate, no oversight, no public mandate. They can push any agenda they choose without accountability. . . " Hat Hair, Decoding the NGO Takeover, "The setup is this: 1. Marxist billionaires fund NGOs, 2. NGOs develop game plans on how to execute an agenda on day, 3. NGOs also build credibility through smaller government contracts, 4. As soon as the right administration funds them, they execute on their Big Bad plan." @amuse @amuse "DOGE: Federal agencies like the Social Security Administration are filled with Democrats who believe it is their duty to resist President Trump's agenda. Associate Commissioner Greg Pearre opposed Trump's effort to revoke SSNs for illegals and was actively subverting the DOGE team. Security was eventually required to forcibly remove him from the building after he placed on administrative leave." Don Surber explains further, Trump listed NO illegal aliens as dead, "Media makes up a lie about about a Social Security death list. It doesn't exist." From Da Caller, White House To Scrap Federal Climate Research Office As Part Of ‘Woke Ideology’ Cleanse. Space News whines White House proposal would slash NASA science budget and cancel major missions. Sundance is concerned that Elon Musk is Doing What Eric Holder Dreamed of Doing: “Elon’s DOGE just teamed up with Palantir — the AI data company co-founded by Peter Thiel — to help the IRS build a massive “mega API.” What’s a mega API? Think of it like a giant, turbo-charged plug that lets computers talk to each other. This one would let the IRS finally access all of its scattered, ancient tax data in one place. For 3 days straight, Palantir’s tech geniuses, DOGE officials, and IRS engineers have been locked in a digital war room, trying to modernize a system that still faxes things like it’s 1997."

The Peacock whines FBI analyst targeted in Kash Patel's book is placed on leave, "Patel, who is now the FBI director, included Brian Auten on a list of roughly 60 alleged “deep state" actors in his 2023 book, “Government Gangsters.”" Jerry Dunleavy at JTN sees that Newly declassified Crossfire Hurricane docs shine light on Steele, Clinton, and more "Trump's first attempt at declassifying Crossfire Hurricane documents in January 2021 was thwarted. But now, the FBI records have been released, revealing in part new details on the FBI's problematic Trump-Russia probe." Interesting, but I don't see much we didn't already know. "Key elements of this document remain hidden behind redactions, including significant redactions related to Steele’s explanations of his various dossier reports and multiple redactions labeled “FGI” — Foreign Government Information. Oddly, Steele’s claim of having information on Rex Tillerson is now redacted."
Athena Thorne at PJM says Yikes! It’s Starting to Look Really Bad for Letitia James. It's certainly looking like she did what she accused Trump of doing, filing false documents in real estate transactions, including listing her father as her husband.
Twitchy wonders 'How DID Joe Biden Get So Rich?!' Biden Family Bank Records Subpoenaed and WOW That's a LOTTA Dirty Money Wall Street Apes @WallStreetApes, "WOAH Biden Family bank records subpoenaed “THEY TOOK IN $27 MILLION (TAX FREE) FROM BAD PEOPLE IN BAD COUNTRIES” Charlie Kirk “How did Joe Biden get so rich?” James Comer “No one's ever been able to figure that out. What we were able to do is subpoena the bank records of his son and his brother. We found that they took in $27 million from bad people in bad countries, not for any business purpose, because the Bidens didn't own a real business. The only business that we could determine in our year and a half long investigation was they were selling access to Joe. There's a term for that that's called lobbying, I guess you could say. . . "

From the Nebraska Examiner, Trump authorizes U.S. military to begin occupation of federal land along southern border. "The memo directs the Interior Department to allow the Defense Department to have jurisdiction over portions of federal land known as the Roosevelt Reservation, excluding any Native American reservations. By creating a military buffer zone that stretches across the U.S.-Mexico border in Arizona, California and New Mexico, it means any migrant crossing into the United States would be trespassing on a military base, therefore allowing active-duty troops to hold them until U.S. Border Patrol agents arrive."
