[GeorgiaRecord] Following the House vote to kill release of information regarding the multi-million dollar slush fund created to reportedly "pay-off" and silence potential victims, legislators are trying to beat a fast retreat claiming their vote, while it did prevent disclosure, was actually about protecting victims and their privacy.
As is often the case, researching the actual facts involved can lead to more transparent findings.
Below is the actual Resolution considered by the House H. Res. 1100.
Within the Resolution as considered and voted upon, it contains the following provision:
"not later than 60 days after the date of the adoption of this resolution, make publicly available all final reports, or in such cases where there is not a final report, the most recent draft report, conclusions, recommendations, exhibits, and attached or accompanying materials, with the personally identifiable information of victims, alleged victims, and witnesses redacted.."
AccessWDUN updated its reporting on the vote to incorporate a statement released by House Rep, Andrew Clyde:
Rep. Clyde's statements appear to ignore the provisions of the Resolution which specifically protect victim's personal info (as well as witnesses) by redacting such information.

A Correction Is Due. GenZ has little agency and little hope. At least the ones I speak to. And I try to stay away from Black Pilled People.
So when the damn breaks... I'll just say, most "fascists" were fighting communists, Francisco Franco et al, and all those bad things we were taught, was just the commies getting their butts kicked by the homogeneous indigenous cultures that they tried to divide.
I have a huge popcorn stash, as things can only go in one direction for so long.

..in the end Franco lead 'nationalists' against the communists, who'd kindly liquidated the other competition on the 'republican' side. Franco then went on to do to the communists what they had done to others when they got control.

Just to show some age, Franco's Spain was nothing like what is there now. Such excesses as effected the everyday life of the population were for the positive.

Being "black pilled" refers to adopting a deeply pessimistic or nihilistic worldview, often believing that personal effort cannot change one’s circumstances.

[Regnum] Former French President Nicolas Sarkozy will be jailed again after the court refused to consolidate two previous convictions against him in separate criminal cases. This was reported on March 9 by BFMTV.
The issue concerns the consolidation of Sarkozy's prison terms in the "wiretapping case" and the trial related to falsifying accounts during the 2012 presidential campaign. The former president's lawyers requested that the sentences be consolidated and that the time served for one conviction be counted toward the other. However, the court ruled that the conditions for consolidating the sentences were not met.
As a result, Sarkozy will have to spend another six months in prison.
In late September 2025, a Paris court sentenced Sarkozy to five years in prison for allegedly financing his 2007 election campaign by the Libyan government. The former French president was also fined €100,000 and banned from holding public office for five years. The trial established that Sarkozy's 2007 election campaign was financed by then-Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi, who donated €50 million to the French politician, which helped him win the election and remain president of France until 2012.
On October 21, 2025, Sarkozy and his wife, Carla Bruni, headed to La Santé Prison in Paris. His motorcade was escorted by approximately 15 police motorcyclists. In November, the Paris Court of Appeal approved Sarkozy's request for release. He was released from prison under judicial supervision and prohibited from leaving France.

Hopefully, there is Brie available in the commissary. I wonder if French prison has a good wine list.

[JTN] President Donald Trump and his supporters were targeted by four consecutive FBI code-named counterintelligence investigations over the last decade that secretly subjected hundreds of innocent Americans to privacy-invading tactics and essentially treated the man twice elected president as a national security threat for most of the first nine years of his political career, according to interviews and documents reviewed by Just the News.
FBI Director Kash Patel has personally led the effort to review the operations code-named Crossfire Hurricane, Round River, Plasmic Echo and Arctic Frost that stretched from summer 2016 to January 2025, uncovering evidence of a far-reaching dragnet that in some cases may have been predicated on false, misleading or uncorroborated justifications, officials said.

The arrests and pre-dawn raids. Where are they?

Both good points. But I'm not sure I care how much they spend at the prison commissary I just want to see them in stripes.
You do have to wonder. While we are showing a not insignificant fraction of our red-ass to the Iranians, why the tender, virgin white glove treatment for these jokers.
[PJ] Rep. Thomas Massie(R-Ky.) hasn't made any friends in the White House this year with his strong — and sometimes worrisome — opposition to Operation Epic Fury. Why worrisome? Well, that's where "follow the money" comes in.
Skipping down to the BLUF:
That's where the money part gets interesting, because the Kentucky Republican gets a lot of it from an unusual source — the Mahrouq family of Texas.
After fleeing Jordan, "Sam Hussein Mahrouq built a large business empire, starting with auto dealerships," Stock Mom reported on X. "His companies now include MEI Auto Finance, iKON Technologies insurance, and major real estate projects like the Caravan Court Hotel redevelopment. The family has also been active in local philanthropy in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, much of which is pro-Islam leaning."
Nothing sinister there, I suppose, but Stock Mom also noted — and the public record backs this up — who else the Mahrouqs give to:
For over ten years, the family has maxed out donations to the most anti-Israel progressives in Congress. They have given heavily to Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Cori Bush, Jamaal Bowman, and others. They also donated large sums to American Priorities PAC, where Sam Mahrouq gave 100k and smaller amounts to Citizens Against AIPAC Corruption. American Priorities PAC is a super PAC created specifically to fight AIPAC influence and support candidates who want to restrict aid to Israel. These groups push extreme anti-Israel agendas and team up with far-left organizations such as Justice Democrats.
[Federalist] Democrats in Virginia passed a bill Friday that directs state agencies to discriminate against businesses owned by white men when considering which companies receive discretionary government contracts under $200,000. Sounds a bit ...unconstitutionally?
The bill, introduced by Democrat Del. Jeion Ward, establishes the "Small SWaM Business Procurement Enhancement Program." (SWaM stands for "small women-owned, small minority-owned, or small service disabled veteran-owned"). The measure sets a race or sex quota for such businesses to receive 42 percent of the state’s discretionary spending on "procurement orders, prime contracts, and subcontracts."
"The bill provides that executive branch agencies and covered institutions are required to increase their small SWaM business utilization rates by three percent per year until reaching the 42-percent target or, if unable to do so, to implement achievable goals to increase their utilization rates," a summary states. The legislative text dictates that "purchases between $10,000 and $200,000 shall be set aside for award to small SWaM businesses."
