Trump is absolutely correct and what is happening in the court system is alarming.  Yes, I believe that this is nothing more than election interference and keeping him from campaigning.  The left IS afraid of him. 

However, I still fear that if they do incarcerate him, he'll never get out.   **nononono*

One thing so far is for sure, Trump is not backing down.

The violence only will increase over the next few months, and it's all on Biden's head.

'No leadership': Resurfaced post comes back to haunt Biden after anti-Israel protests sweep the nation
Anti-Israel protests have brought colleges across the country to a standstill in recent weeks

A 2020 social media post by then-presidential candidate Joe Biden blaming then-President Trump for violence in the United States is drawing renewed criticism after violence has erupted on college campuses nationwide stemming from anti-Israel protests.

"Remember: every example of violence Donald Trump decries has happened on his watch," Biden posted on Twitter, now known as X, in August 2020. "Under his leadership. During his presidency."

Social media users have looked back on that post in recent days, given the increased violence and arrests being made as anti-Israel activists have caused chaos on over a dozen college campuses in recent weeks.

"It's now the year 2024, three full years into Joe Biden's presidency and Jewish students are being blocked from their college campuses, and being told to stay home and remote learn," conservative political commentator Stephen Miller recently posted on X.

Trump lashes out at Judge in NY criminal trial over 'unconstitutional' gag order

Former President Trump lashed out at Judge Juan Merchan ahead of Thursday's proceedings in his Manhattan criminal trial.

Trump once again argued Merchan is a "conflicted" judge and a member of the "radical left." Trump has repeatedly raged against the gag order Merchan imposed on him in early April, which prohibits him from speaking publicly about witnesses in the case.

"WE CANNOT LET THIS RADICAL LEFT, CORRUPT AND HIGHLY CONFLICTED NEW YORK DEMOCRAT JUDGE INTERFERE WITH THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION OF 2024 — THE MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION IN THE HISTORY OF OUR COUNTRY. THE USA IS TRULY A NATION IN DECLINE! REMOVE THE UNCONSTITUTIONAL GAG ORDER," Trump wrote on social media.

Thursday's proceedings are expected to begin with yet another gag order hearing. Merchan fined Trump $9,000 for violating the order earlier this week. The court also warned Trump that further violations could result in jail time.

Legal Insurrection by Mike LaChance Thursday, May 2, 2024

“Ayers was hunted by the FBI for his alleged involvement in the 1970 bombing of the New York City Police Department headquarters, 1971 bombing of the United States Capitol building and the 1972 bombing of the Pentagon.”

Bill Ayers, famous for being a leading member of the ‘Weather Underground,’ a domestic terror group in the 1960s, showed up at the anti-Israel encampment at the University of Chicago, where he ended up teaching for years.

People who remember the 2008 election will recall that Ayers became a political lightning rod because he was an old friend of Barack Obama, who famously dismissed their relationship, calling Ayers just a ‘guy from the neighborhood.’

FOX News reports:

    Obama-connected professor who led radical group that bombed US speaks at anti-Israel encampment

    A retired professor with connections to former President Barack Obama and a history of involvement in far-left militant activism spoke at an anti-Israel encampment at the University of Chicago.

    An anti-Israel encampment formed on the Main Quadrangle or “Quad” of the University of Chicago Monday was visited by Bill Ayers roughly seven hours into the demonstration, according to reporting from the Chicago Maroon and the Hyde Park Herald.

I'll bet they're secretly figuring how to use air assets on the ground since they have such problems keeping them in the air. :whistle:

MDM News: Marine Corps Charting Aviation Path to 2040
5/1/2024
By Sean Carberry   
 

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Marine Corps is updating its current aviation platforms for the service’s crisis response mission, but it has also launched a new project to evaluate long-term aviation needs to address evolving and future threats and support the Marine Air-Ground Task Force.

The first phase of Project Eagle began in 2022, although the service just started rolling out public information in April. The project is designed as a long-range planning framework for continuous modernization of Marine Aviation, Col. Brian Grant, branch head of Air Warfare Systems in the Deputy Commandant for Aviation, said at the Modern Day Marine conference May 1.

“It identifies opportunities to procure [and] sustain relevant capabilities that are lethal, resilient, persistent and sustainable across a range of military operations,” he said during a panel discussion. The project’s “vision and strategy balances crisis response and modernization with maximizing potential of the stand in force as a contribution to the Joint Force.”

The project will look across three future years defense programs starting in fiscal year 2026 and will allow the Marine Corps “to make data-informed capability and fiscal decisions aligned with Force Design and its modernization efforts,” he continued.

Can The Current Universities Be Saved? › American Greatness
Victor Davis Hanson
5–7 minutes

Elite higher education in America—long unquestioned as globally preeminent—is facing a perfect storm. Fewer applicants, higher costs, impoverished students, collapsing standards, and increasingly politicized and mediocre faculty reflect a collapse of the university system.

The country is waking up to the reality that a bachelor’s degree no longer equates with graduates being broadly educated and analytical. Just as often, they are stereotyped as pampered, largely ignorant, and gratuitously opinionated.

No wonder polls show a drastic loss of public respect for higher education and, specifically, a growing lack of confidence in the professoriate.

Each year, there are far fewer students entering college. Despite a U.S. population 40 million larger than 20 years ago, fertility rates have fallen in two decades by some 500,000 births per year.

Meanwhile, from 1980 to 2020, room, board, and tuition increased by 170 percent.

Skyrocketing costs cannot be explained by inflation alone, given that campuses have lightened faculty teaching loads while expanding administrative staff. At Stanford, there is nearly one staffer or administrative position for every student on campus.

National Guard Boss Warns of Potential ‘Critical’ Fighter Shortage
May 1, 2024 | By David Roza


The head of the National Guard warned that a shortage of fighter jets, pilots, and maintainers in the reserve components could leave the military short-handed in a possible conflict.

“We’ve got a 60 fighter squadron requirement,” across the Air Force, Army Gen. Daniel R. Hokanson, the Chief of the National Guard Bureau, said April 30 at a House Appropriations defense subcommittee hearing. “We have 25 of those in the National Guard, and our ability to retain that capability when we’re already short fighter pilots and maintainers will be critically important in the next coming years as we start to modernize our fleet.”


The Air Force is retiring several of the Guard’s aging A-10 and F-15C/D squadrons in an effort to fund modernization, but lawmakers worry there are not enough new replacement aircraft to make up the difference.

“I’m very concerned about the lack of, frankly, assets within the reserve components, especially on the Air National Guard side, to be that complementary force to the Active duty right now,” Rep. Mike Garcia (R-Calif.) said. “I think we’ve gotten below or are approaching below critical mass on some of the platforms that are being allocated to y’all.”
