DCPundit.comTruth Over Comfort, Facts Over Fiction

(DC Pundit) – Has anyone else noticed that the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) seems to think taxpayers are just dying to fund drag queen sing-alongs for preschoolers? Apparently, in the land of government-subsidized television, “educational programming” now includes a cross-dressing crooner serenading kids as young as three with a hip-shaking rendition of “Wheels on the Bus.” And here we thought PBS was all about Big Bird and counting cookies.

This gem of a revelation came courtesy of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene during a House Oversight Committee hearing on Wednesday. Greene, never one to mince words, hauled PBS CEO Paula Kerger and National Public Radio (NPR) CEO Katherine Maher into the hot seat to explain why conservatives should keep footing the bill for what looks more like left-wing propaganda than public service. Spoiler alert: their answers were about as convincing as a toddler denying they ate the last cookie while crumbs fall from their mouth.

Greene played a clip for the committee—a drag queen, featured on PBS programming, belting out, “The hips on the drag queen go, swish, swish, swish,” followed by “the shoulders on the drag queen go, shimmy, shimmy, shimmy.” The grand finale? “The mouth on the drag queen goes blah blah blah all through the town.” Move over, Sesame Street; there’s a new sheriff in town, and he’s got glitter and a falsetto. Greene didn’t hold back, calling it “repulsive” and unfit for kids aged three to eight. “That’s not what children should ever be watching,” she said, “a grown, biological man, posing as a woman.” Preach, Marjorie.

Kerger, with a straight face, claimed the clip “never aired” and was “mistakenly” posted on their website before being “immediately pulled down.” Sounds legit—until Greene dropped the receipts. Turns out, this wasn’t some oopsie-daisy upload. The segment aired on April 1, 2021, and didn’t “expire” until May 24—nearly two months later. That’s a long time for an “accident,” Paula. Did the New York City station just forget to hit delete, or were they hoping nobody would notice? Greene wasn’t buying it, pointing out, “Ms. Kerger lied under oath and said it wasn’t featured on PBS.” Caught red-handed, and not even Elmo could spin that one.

In my @DOGECommittee hearing, PBS CEO Paula Kerger LIED about posting this ‘Let’s Learn’ Drag Queen kids indoctrination video.

Here is the PROOF that the video was intentionally posted by this radical left-wing media outlet.

Swish swish swish.

Shimmy shimmy shimmy.

This is the sick propaganda PBS uses to brainwash our kids with your money.

CEO Paula Kerger lied when she claimed it aired by accident by only a local affiliate.

It was published on https://t.co/e9tdbIa3oZ for all the world to see. pic.twitter.com/maLDltTor7

— Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene🇺🇸 (@RepMTG) March 26, 2025

Meanwhile, the radical left doubled down. Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) threw a tantrum, erupting into a vulgar, race-baiting rant and calling the GOP’s push to defund this nonsense “bullsh*t.” Classy, Jasmine. The Democrats’ defense? Save the puppets and the pronouns, apparently. They’re still fighting for “they/them” over “you,” even after President Trump’s landslide reelection proved Americans want no part of the pronoun game.

PBS didn’t stop at drag queens, either. They’ve aired gems like “Racist Trees”—yes, you read that right—and transgender teen specials, all while Kerger played dumb when grilled by Rep. Will Timmons (R-SC). “I don’t know anything about that,” she said about the tree fiasco. Sure, Paula, and I don’t know where my tax dollars went last year. This is why conservatives are fed up. We’re not here to bankroll woke experiments masquerading as education. It’s high time we cut the cord on PBS’s taxpayer-funded fever dream. Let’s fund roads, not rhinestones.

(DC Pundit) – America lost a political pioneer this week, and conservatives everywhere are feeling the sting. Mia Love, the first Black Republican woman to grace the halls of Congress, passed away at 49 after a grueling battle with brain cancer. Her death marks the end of a remarkable journey—from a Haitian immigrant’s daughter in Brooklyn to a Utah congresswoman who broke barriers and stood firm for conservative values.

Born Ludmya Bourdeau in New York to parents who fled Haiti’s turmoil, Love’s story was pure American grit. She landed in Utah in the late 1990s and didn’t waste time climbing the ladder of public service. Starting on the Saratoga Springs City Council, she later became mayor, proving she could run a city before she ever dreamed of Capitol Hill. Then, in 2014, she made history, winning Utah’s 4th congressional district seat and etching her name as the first Black Republican woman in the U.S. House.

During her two terms, Love was a steady conservative voice—reliable as a Utah sunrise—though she wasn’t afraid to call out President Donald Trump when she disagreed. That independence didn’t always win her friends in the party, but it showed she had spine. Alas, the 2018 midterms saw her unseated by Democrat Ben McAdams, Salt Lake County’s mayor at the time. A tough loss, sure, but Love didn’t fade into obscurity. She stayed in the game, offering political commentary and throwing her weight behind Trump’s 2024 reelection bid. “He and J.D. Vance had a passionate vision of an American revival that enables all Americans to pursue their dreams,” she said, proving her loyalty to the cause even after leaving office.

After this past week, I’m all in on team Trump/Vance! They have a passionate vision of an American revival that enables all Americans to pursue their dreams.

— Mia Love (@MiaBLove) July 22, 2024

Her family’s statement on X was equal parts heartbreaking and poetic: “With grateful hearts filled to overflowing for the profound influence of Mia on our lives, we want you to know that she passed away peacefully today. She was in her home surrounded by family. … Mia quietly slipped the bands of mortality and, as her words and vision always did, soared heavenward.”

We are heartbroken at this news. From the time we were mayors together I could always count on Mia as a true friend. Her legacy of service inspired all who knew her. We pray for her family and mourn with them. https://t.co/59ZhLi3sAn

Utah Gov. Spencer Cox, a fellow Republican, gave his tribute: “We are heartbroken at this news. From the time we were mayors together I could always count on Mia as a true friend. Her legacy of service inspired all who knew her.”

For those who don’t know, Love’s rise wasn’t just a fluke. She brought a unique perspective—born to immigrants, raised in faith, and shaped by a no-nonsense work ethic. Her congressional tenure focused on fiscal responsibility and limited government, classic GOP staples that resonate with conservatives who’ve had it with Washington’s spending sprees. And while she occasionally sparred with Trump, her support for his latest campaign showed she saw the bigger picture: a Republican White House keeping America first. With Trump now back in office after his 2024 win, her endorsement feels like a bittersweet footnote to a career cut short.

Let’s be real—49 is no age to go. Brain cancer doesn’t care about your legacy or your plans, and it’s a brutal reminder of life’s fragility. Love’s passing leaves a void in the GOP, where strong, principled voices like hers are gold. She wasn’t just a “first” for the history books; she was a fighter who proved conservatives could win over skeptics without pandering. Rest easy, Mia. You did us proud.

(DC Pundit) – Hold onto your hats, patriots—because what’s been uncovered about Barack Obama’s tenure might just make your blood boil. Mike Benz, the sharp-minded founder of the Foundation for Freedom Online, recently dropped a bombshell on Joe Rogan’s podcast. Recorded weeks ago, a clip from this jaw-dropping interview is now blazing across social media. And for good reason: it exposes how Obama allegedly turned USAID—a supposed beacon of humanitarian aid—into a taxpayer-funded scheme to train “rent-a-mobs” overseas.

Benz laid out a trail of corruption that conservatives have long suspected but could never quite pin down—until now. “This was a scandal during the Obama USAID era,” he told Rogan, his voice steady but brimming with the kind of outrage that resonates with every hardworking American who’s ever filed a tax return. “We were running a number of rogue USAID operations in Cuba at the time. … I’m simply showing the American people where your tax dollars are going and how these things are structured in order to systematically fool you and to fool Congress and to fool the White House.” Fool us? Oh, they did more than that—they took us for a ride.

According to Benz, USAID pumped a staggering $1.2 billion into these shadowy operations, funneled through activist groups and so-called “civil society organizations.” The goal? Teach them how to weaponize social media—Facebook, Twitter, hashtags, the works—to orchestrate street protests with military precision. “Everyone knows where to go, what street to show up on, what kind of slogans to use,” Benz explained, painting a picture of chaos-by-design. And here’s the kicker: they even cooked up a Cuban knockoff of Twitter called Zunzuneo—slang for “hummingbird”—complete with the same interface, just to make it look homegrown. “It was the Twitter bird, the whole thing,” he said. Subtle, right?

But the real gut punch comes with the money trail. Benz revealed that funds earmarked for Pakistani aid never made it there. Instead, they were rerouted through Cayman Islands bank accounts to bankroll this Cuban operation. “You’re saying it’s earmarked for Pakistani aid,” Benz noted, “but the money was never sent to Pakistan.” Imagine that: your hard-earned dollars, supposedly helping the needy, winding up in an offshore tax haven to fund astroturfed dissent. The plan was slick—start with harmless bait like sports updates and hurricane alerts, then, once they had enough subscribers, flip the switch to political messaging via social bots. The endgame? “Rent-a-Riots,” as Benz put it—a critical mass of orchestrated chaos to push a “pro-democracy” narrative. And it all kicked off in 2010, right as the Arab Spring was heating up. Coincidence? You be the judge.

Barack Obama was using USAID to pretend to send money to a country for “aid” and instead laundering it to the Cayman Islands

He would then use that money to fund and train “Rent-a-Riots” for protests to overthrow governments

Sound familiar?

This all ties back to Obama’s administration. Democrats have long treated taxpayer money like their personal piggy bank, and this is Exhibit A. No wonder they’re losing their minds now that President Donald Trump has slammed the brakes on USAID. Shutting it down wasn’t just a campaign promise—it was a stake through the heart of what Benz calls the “Democrat Party’s slush fund.” Trump said, “Not on my watch.” Good thing, too, because conservatives know the last thing we need is more of Obama’s smoke-and-mirrors governance.

USAID—formally the United States Agency for International Development—has been around since 1961, tasked with doling out foreign aid to promote American interests abroad. Under Obama, though, it seems to have morphed into something else entirely. The Cuba operation isn’t even the half of it—Benz hinted at “deeper layers” involving contractors and micro-targeting data to manipulate both pro- and anti-government factions. It’s the kind of scheme that’d make even the most jaded Washington insider raise an eyebrow. And yet, the mainstream media, predictably, has barely batted an eyelash. Shocking, I know—about as surprising as finding out the sun rises in the east.

This revelation only bolsters the case for why we need a leader who puts America first, not one who plays global puppet master with our tax dollars. As Benz put it, the whole operation was designed “to fool the White House.” Well, guess what? The American people aren’t fooled anymore—not with Trump back in charge and patriots like Benz shining a light on the rot. Democrats can clutch their pearls all they want, but the jig is up. And honestly, couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch.

(DC Pundit) – President Donald Trump has decided to kick off the weekend with a bang. With the stroke of a pen on Friday evening, he signed an executive order that yanked security clearances from a rogues’ gallery of left-wing luminaries and Deep State darlings.

The list of those now barred from the classified cookie jar reads like a casting call for a Trump-hating Hollywood blockbuster. Heavy hitters like Hillary Clinton, Kamala Harris, and Joe Biden—along with his entire entourage of family grifters—top the marquee. Then there’s Antony Blinken, Jake Sullivan, Letitia James, and Alvin Bragg, each a familiar face in the conservative hall of shame. Trump even threw in Elizabeth Cheney and Adam Kinzinger for good measure, proving that disloyalty doesn’t get a free pass just because you once wore the GOP badge.

“I have determined that it is no longer in the national interest for the following individuals to access classified information,” Trump declared. And who can blame him?

The order continues, “Therefore, I hereby direct every executive department and agency head to take all additional action as necessary and consistent with existing law to revoke any active security clearances held by the aforementioned individuals and to immediately rescind their access to classified information,” Trump wrote. Translation: If you’re on this list, your days of attempting to leverage sensitive info in order to hurt the Trump administration are over.

The lineup of the newly clearance-less includes: Lisa Monaco, Mark Zaid, Norman Eisen, Andrew Weissmann, Fiona Hill, and Alexander Vindman join the Bidens, Clintons, and Harris. And in a delicious bit of housekeeping, Trump made sure to extend the ban to “any other member of Joseph R. Biden Jr.’s family.” Sorry, Hunter—looks like those classified briefings won’t be padding your next art sale.

For conservatives, this is more than just a policy win—it’s a victory lap. After enduring years of what they see as weaponized investigations and sanctimonious lectures from the likes of Letitia James and Alvin Bragg, Trump’s supporters are relishing the sight of these figures being booted from the intelligence inner circle. And who could forget Kamala Harris, whose “Down with deportation!” chant from a 2018 Los Angeles rally—flanked by none other than Jussie Smollett—still echoes as a reminder of why she flamed out against Trump in November 2024?

Trump’s order also takes a practical swipe at potential loopholes. “In the event that any of the named individuals received a security clearance by virtue of their employment with a private entity,” he wrote, “the United States Government entity that granted the security clearance should inform the private entity that these individuals’ ability to access classified information has been revoked.” In other words, no sneaking back in through the corporate side door.

With a second term underway and a mandate from the American people, Trump’s clearly decided to go big or go home.

For now, Republicans can savor this moment: a decisive strike against the swamp, delivered with the kind of flair only Trump can muster. As for the left? They’re probably still trying to decode Harris’s latest word salad.

(DC Pundit) – President Donald Trump is facing a judicial barrage that would make even the most seasoned prizefighter wince. In less than two months, the man who promised to drain the swamp has been slapped with 132 legal challenges—only two of which have been resolved. Apparently, the swamp creatures don’t go down without a fight, and they’ve got a secret weapon: a judiciary packed with leftist crusaders courtesy of Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and his merry band of Democrats.

Schumer let the cat out of the bag during a PBS NewsHour interview this week. When host Geoff Bennett prodded him about whether the nation is teetering on the edge of a “constitutional crisis,” Schumer didn’t just dodge the question—he strutted right into a confession. With all the subtlety of a bullhorn, he bragged that Democrats had strategically installed 235 “progressive judges” to thwart President Trump “time after time after time.” For conservatives who’ve long suspected the courts were being turned into a political battering ram, this was the smoking gun—gift-wrapped and delivered on national TV.

Chuck Schumer admits the quiet part out loud— Democrat-appointed judges are really activists who are there to stop Trump:

The reaction from the right was swift and fierce. Senator Mike Lee of Utah, never one to mince words, fired off a salvo on X: “‘Progressive judges’ That doesn’t mean ‘judges who follow the law.’ It means progressive activists wearing black robes.” He’s got a point—when did “justice is blind” turn into “justice picks a team”? Meanwhile, Representative Eli Crane of Arizona took it a step further, calling it like he sees it: “Here you have Schumer admitting that they put progressive judges in place for the explicit purpose of ruling against Trump. It’s all coordinated and intentional. Congress must act.” Crane isn’t wrong—coordination this blatant deserves a standing ovation from conspiracy theorists everywhere.

Here you have Schumer admitting that they put progressive judges in place for the explicit purpose of ruling against Trump.

It’s all coordinated and intentional.

Congress must act. https://t.co/0hMNQ6QcE5

— Rep. Eli Crane (@RepEliCrane) March 21, 2025

During Trump’s first term, conservatives cheered as he reshaped the federal judiciary, appointing over 200 judges to uphold the Constitution—not to play partisan piñata. Now, with Trump back in charge and pushing his America First agenda, the left’s counterpunch is clear: weaponize the courts to tie his administration in knots. Schumer’s admission isn’t just a flex—it’s a blueprint. Those 235 judges aren’t there to interpret the law; they’re there to stop Trump “time after time after time,” as the man himself put it. If that’s not a judicial coup, what is?

If Schumer’s army of robe-wearing activists gets its way, Trump’s second term could be bogged down in legal quicksand before it even hits stride. Conservatives are already sounding the alarm—Congress needs to step up, whether through investigations, judicial reform, or just good old-fashioned public shaming.

After all, if the left can stack the deck this shamelessly, what’s stopping them from turning every courtroom into a progressive playground?
