Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) joined Steve Bannon and the War Room audience in the halls of CPAC on Saturday morning.
MTG told the War Room crowd she still supports Speaker Kevin McCarthy and does not regret it at all.
Steve Bannon: let me ask. It’s a tough one. Were you right to back McCarthy during the fight or will you walk us through it? You got your biggest fans here. Talk to us about it.
Rep. MTG: Well, I was definitely right. And I think everyone’s starting to see the decision that I made was the right decision. We only have four seats in our majority that help us get things passed and help us have the gavel. And the gavel is everything. Because let me explain something to you all. The gavel means subpoena power. And if we have never had a time like before where we need subpoena power, and I look forward to taking part in a lot of that on our upcoming committee hearings.
The audience was silent.
MTG still has a tough sell with the MAGA crowd on McCarthy.

When it came to picking his Secretary of Transportation, President Joe Biden picked Pete Buttigieg, a man whose resume included 1) overperforming in a handful of presidential primaries and 2) being the mayor of the 335th-largest city in the United States of America.
This, apparently, qualifies one to lead the way when it comes to the nation’s transportation and infrastructure needs. And if that’s the guy heading the DOT, wait until you see who’s getting picked to be his underlings.
Phil Washington, once the CEO of Denver International Airport, is President Joe Biden’s choice to lead the Federal Aviation Administration — you know, the agency charged with making sure planes get off the ground, stay in the air, and land safely and on-time.
According to Fox News, Washington had initially failed to advance last year after concerns about his limited experience in the aviation industry were put forth. On Wednesday, during his Senate confirmation hearings, we found out why those concerns were well-founded.
GOP North Carolina Sen. Ted Budd, a licensed pilot, had seven questions for Washington that one would expect an FAA administrator to know most of. Instead, he managed to go a solid 0-for-7 in what’s become a viral clip.
The first of these queries regarded what airspace requires an ADS-B transponder. According to Trig Avionics, these devices, are “typically combined with a GPS, to transmit highly accurate positional information to ground controllers and also directly to other aircraft.
“This transmission is known as ADS-B Out and its accuracy is greater than using conventional radar surveillance. This gives air traffic controllers the potential to reduce the required separation distance between aircraft that are ADS-B equipped.”
Washington didn’t know what it was, however.
“That’s a pretty important part,” Budd said.
Next: “What are the six types of special use airspace that protect … national security that appear on FAA charts?”
Washington: “Sorry, senator, I cannot answer that question.”
Thankfully, the FAA nominee had an answer to the next question. It was wrong, I mean, but he had it.
The question: “What are the operational limitations of a pilot flying under BasicMed?” Budd asked.
“Senator, I’m not a pilot, so–” Washington said.
“But obviously you oversee the Federal Aviation Administration, so any idea what those restrictions are under BasicMed?” Budd asked.
“Well, some of the restrictions, I think, would be high blood pressure, some of them would be–” Washington said.
Budd stopped him before he got too far afield; BasicMed is a program that allows pilots to fly without a medical certificate provided they only fly certain kinds of planes with limited weight, size and passengers, inter alia.
“It’s more like how many passengers per airplane, how many pounds in different categories and what altitude you can fly under,” Budd noted. “It doesn’t have anything to do with blood pressure.”
Next: Did Washington have any idea what causes a plane to spin or stall? Answer: Nope!
Then: the three certifications the FAA requires as part of aircraft manufacturing.
“Again, what I would say to that is one of my first priorities would be to fully implement that certification act,” Washington said.
“Do you know the three types, Mr. Washington?” Budd interjected.
“No,” he responded. (Type certificate, production certificate and airworthiness certificate, for the uninitiated.)
“Let’s just keep going and see if we can get lucky here,” Budd said after that one.
Spoiler alert: Things did not get one iota better.
I asked Biden’s nominee for FAA Administrator 7 basic questions about aviation policy.
He went 0 for 7.

This comes after a similar embarrassment in January, when Charnelle Bjelkengren, a Biden nominee to sit on the bench for the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Washington, couldn’t answer basic questions about the Constitution.

However, we’re used to an incompetent judiciary whenever someone with a D after his name occupies 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.; Biden’s one Supreme Court pick couldn’t define a woman because she said she wasn’t an biologist. Planes — and keeping them up in the sky — are a rather different matter, particularly after a winter of airport snarls and a Transportation secretary who seemed impotent to do anything but yell at Southwest Airlines executives on Sunday morning political chat shows.
Wednesday’s hearing is a sign that the problem may not lie solely with the perfidious airlines, however. I’m not a nominee and I knew the answer to two of those seven questions (what causes a stall/spin and what the three types of certificates are, respectively).
Little wonder, then, that prominent Republicans have already tried to stall (pun intended) Washington’s nomination by pointing out his lack of experience in the job he wants and his job performance at his previous employer — L.A. Metro, where corruption allegations dogged Washington due to an exorbitant contract for a sexual harassment hotline that was given to a charity connected to a Metro board member.
“It’s bad enough that Mr. Washington has zero aviation safety experience and is entangled in an ongoing, unresolved criminal probe of public corruption at L.A. Metro,” said GOP Sen. Ted Cruz, urging that the hearing be pushed back.
He needn’t have bothered, however. After all, if there was ever a moment to expose just how unfit for the job Mr. Washington was, it was Wednesday — and Sen. Budd did stellar work exposing it.

A 31-year-old Colorado woman who became pregnant by a 13-year-old boy will face no jail time in a plea deal with prosecutors.
In June 2022, Andrea Serrano admitted to sexually assaulting the minor teen and becoming pregnant with his child.
Serrano gave birth and will avoid prison time.
The victim’s mother said there is a ‘double standard’ because the victim of sexual assault is a boy.
“I feel like if she was a man and he was a little girl, it would definitely be different. They would be seeking more. I feel like because he is not a woman, they are not. They are having compassion for her,” the victim’s mother, who has not been identified, said to 11 News.
“I feel like my son is robbed of his childhood. Now he’s having to be a father. He’s a victim, and he’s going to have to live with that for the rest of his life,” the victim’s mother, who we are not identifying, told the outlet.
Serrano will still have to register as a sex offender and could face a requirement of 10 years to life on supervised probation.
The victim’s family plans on asking the court for custody of the baby.

Donald Trump is not done supporting the Jan 6th prisoners.
He was featured in a new song titled, “Justice for All,” by the J6 Prison Choir.
The Daily Mail reported:
Is a Grammy award in former President Donald Trump’s future?
The former president collaborated on a song with the J6 Prison Choir – members of the MAGA mob who remain imprisoned for their role in the January 6 Capitol attack.
The song, entitled ‘Justice for All,’ uses Trump’s spoken word recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance over the Star-Spangled banner, with the prisoners chanting ‘USA’ at the end.
It was released on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music and other platforms on Friday.
The recording was done at Mar-A-Lago and Ed Henry and former Trump White House official Kash Patel are reportedly involved with the project.
According to the report, the money is going to a group run by Henry and then to the families of Jan 6th prisoners.
Newsmax reported:
One source told Forbes that money raised from the song, which is on sale for $1.29 on iTunes, will go to the families of imprisoned Jan. 6 defendants.
The tune was recorded several weeks ago at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence in South Florida, the source further claimed, with the Jan. 6 defendant portion reportedly recorded through a jailhouse phone.
Conservative commentator Ed Henry and Trump-era White House official Kash Patel are reportedly involved in the project. The funds are slated to go into a group run by Henry.
Here is the song:
Democrats and RINOs won’t like this!

George Alan Kelly
The Mexican government wants the murder charge against an Arizona rancher upgraded after he fatally shot an illegal alien on his property.
George Alan Kelly, 73, was arrested for killing Gabriel Cuen-Butimea, on his Arizona ranch in Kino Springs just outside of Nogales, Mexico on January 30.
Kelly was being held at the Santa Cruz County jail on $1 million bond, but he posted bail and was released from custody last Wednesday.
According to reports, Gabriel Cuen-Butimea has a history of illegally crossing into the United States and multiple deportations.
Authorities found a Mexican voter registration card on the decedent.
According to the defense lawyers, Mr. Kelly fired warning shots after he saw a group of men dressed in camouflaged clothing point an AK-47 right at him.
George Alan Kelly was careful to shoot above their heads, the lawyers said.
The rancher later discovered the deceased man after he went to check on his horse.
George Alan Kelly was initially charged with first-degree murder, but a judge recently downgraded his charge to second-degree murder during an evidentiary hearing in court.
“That’s a significant change in the charge,” Judge Emilio Velasquez said. “Second-degree murder is, frankly, a more complicated theory of the case for both the state and the defense.”
Kelly’s attorney entered a ‘not guilty’ plea during the hearing last Friday.
The Mexican government told prosecutors they want George Alan Kelly’s murder charge upgraded because he killed an unarmed Mexican national.
According to a former Border Patrol Chief, the illegal alien shot on George Alan Kelly’s property was likely a cartel drug smuggler.
Fox News reported:
A Mexican official on Friday said the government wanted an Arizona rancher to face a more severe charge for allegedly killing a migrant who crossed onto his property.
Vanessa Calva, Mexico’s head of consular protection, told U.S. prosecutors that the Mexican government believes Kelly should face a first-degree murder charge. She said Cuen-Buitimea, 48, was unarmed, fleeing and was shot in the back.
Prosecutors allege Kelly opened fire with an AK-47 rifle on about eight unarmed migrants he encountered on Jan. 30 on his ranch, striking Cuen-Buitimea as he tried to flee. Two migrants in the group later told authorities that Kelly shot at them as well, but they were not hit and escaped over a fence back into Mexico.
Kelly’s lawyer, Brenna Larkin, said her client shot warning shots above the migrants and that he feared for the safety of himself, his wife and his property. He said he had seen people with AK-47 rifles and backpacks passing through the property.

Americans are pushing back against the Biden administration’s woke agenda.
On March 1st, Social Security Administration Commissioner Kilolo Kijakazi announced a new “Pronoun Policy” for federal workers.
The policy allows transgender employees to use the bathroom of their choice and says that employees could face disciplinary action if they continually misuse the pronouns of a colleague.
The policy defines the terms agender, bigender, cisgender, gender diverse, genderfluid, genderqueer, gender nonconforming, nonbinary, and two-spirit.
The announcement also said that employees “will receive notice of a mandatory training to help you prepare for full implementation of the policy, which will happen on March 31, 2023.”
The Daily Wire reported:
On March 1, SSA Acting Commissioner Kilolo Kijakazi announced the policy to employees with the subject “Building an Equitable and Inclusive Culture: Gender Identity.”
“Soon, you will receive notice of a mandatory training to help you prepare for full implementation of the policy, which will happen on March 31, 2023. Available starting March 2, this training will increase your knowledge of using pronouns and gender-neutral language and supporting employees and colleagues in the workplace,” the email said.
…
It says transgender employees may use the bathroom of their choice, and that “continued intentional misuse of an employee’s name or pronoun could… lead to disciplinary action.”
“At meetings, employees, managers, and supervisors can introduce themselves with the pronouns they use, which may prompt others at the meeting to share the pronouns they use, e.g., ‘Hello, my name is Michael. My pronouns are he/him.’ Additionally, employees, managers, and supervisors should consider including their proper names, pronunciations of their names, and pronouns in their email signatures, e.g., Brianne (Bree-anne) Doe (they/theirs),” it adds.
One union is fighting back.
American Federation of Government Employees Local 2505 represents 600 employees.
They filed a grievance on Friday saying, “All of the changes are violations of … existing terms and conditions of employment.”
Just The News reported:
A union representing Social Security Administration employees wants Biden administration end a new “pronoun policy” related transgender workers, arguing it imposes political views on members.
American Federation of Government Employees Local 2505 filed a grievance Friday over a policy announced internally on Wednesday called the “Policy on Prohibiting Discrimination, Including Harassment, Based on Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity, or Gender Expression.
The union, which represents 600 low-level employees in Oklahoma and Arkansas, said the policy changed restroom access, the dress code, and “created a new form with the employee’s name, gender identity, pronouns,” according to the Daily Wire.
“All of the changes are violations of … existing terms and conditions of employment,” the grievance reads.
Time for more employees to stand up against this new policy!

Dr. Marty Makary shared the many reasons why it is obvious that COVID came from a lab in Wuhan during a House hearing on Tuesday.
The GOP-led House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic investigating the COVID-19 pandemic kicked off its first public event Tuesday. Three of the event’s witnesses — doctors Jay Bhattacharya, Martin Kulldorf, and Marty Makary were invited to testify at the hearing.
Dr. Marty Makary shared the obvious about the COVID vaccine being released from a lab in Wuhan.
It’s a no-brainer that it came from a lab. I mean at this point it’s impossible to acquire any more information and if you did it would only be affirmative.
Dr. Makary also shared important information on how public health officials lied to the American people. They lied to the American people.

Roger Stone joined the Joe Hoft Show on TNT Radio on Friday and covered a number of topics from JFK to the 2024 Election.
Roger Stone has a wealth of knowledge from his many years in politics going back to the Nixon Administration. The Deep State and criminal DOJ persecuted him during President Trump’s years in office. He’s still under duress as he’s now involved in 11 cases from the evil Deep State, down from 17.
Despite all this Stone is upbeat and offers his thoughts freely on various topics.
Stone weighed in on Twitter and its now-known connections with the Deep State FBI at the 18:20 minute mark:
Well, Twitter of course Joe, is ultimately the source of the 2-year ordeal that my wife and I were put through simply because I set a Google News Alert for WikiLeaks and for Julian Assange. And for my own personal Twitter account, I accurately predicted based on things Assange had actually said based on interviews that WikiLeaks had obtained a substantial amount of information regarding Hillary Clinton and the Democrat National Committee and that they would drop it during the fall of 2016.
Next Stone discussed the egregious actions taken in his case in Judge Amy Berman Jackson’s court. Sadly, there are some, thanks to the corrupt media in the US who still believe that Stone was involved in Russia collusion.
I would say that the invention of the Russian collusion hoax was both an offensive and defensive tactic by the Democrats. It was Hillary Clinton who sold the Russians control of most of this country’s uranium supply…
In order to bury that, they turned around and created the bogus Russia collusion lie.
Which means I was actually charged with lying about things that never actually ever happened.
When asked about who is really running the country:
I make now bones about it. I believe that former President Barack Obama is the single most important person in the country today….all of Biden’s top staffers and advisors came out of the Obama Administration…
It is very clear, poor Joe Biden he’s not in control of anything, maybe even control of his own bowels for that matter.
Stone went on to mention the story from Biden’s visit with the Pope where he reportedly changed clothes because he had an accident.
Next Roger discussed the 2024 election and how Governor DeSantis is the establishment candidate. He will be challenged because of this. He admits he’ll be a formidable candidate but also notes that his actions in Florida will receive more scrutiny as a result. Overall Stone thinks President Trump has the base but DeSantis will try to sound like Trump and he has a lot of establishment money.
Stone went on to discuss why they can’t run together because of electoral college rules. Then Stone went on the discuss the coups against JFK and Richard Nixon.
Stone wrote a book indicating LBJ was behind the Kennedy assassination, “The Man Who Killed Kennedy”.
The same people involved in the Kennedy assassination were involved in the Nixon coup. Four of the Watergate burglars were also onsite at the Kennedy assassination.
John Dean was involved in both the Nixon coup and the Trump coup.

Last night Arizona activist Melissa Lively and filmmaker Greg Strause were dining in Washington DC when Dr. Tony Fauci entered the restaurant with two bodyguards. It is not clear at this point if these were government-funded bodyguards but they reportedly did have badges.
Melissa posed for a photo with Dr. Fauci and gave him some much-needed feedback. She flipped him the bird.
Influencer Ada Liuch later tweeted this out.

On Saturday The Gateway Pundit contacted Eric and Melissa. Eric told us they were at the restaurant when Dr. Fauci walked in. No doubt, Fauci was expecting a standing ovation, instead he received the much-deserved feedback. According to Eric, Fauci’s bodyguards told him this was not the place for showing their objection to Fauci’s policies. Eric told the bodyguard, “I was not able to attend my father’s funeral because of this man!” Eric told security, “My father could not take Ivermectin because of this guy!”
Three years after the start of the pandemic we now see that the COVID-19 virus was made in a Wuhan lab funded by Dr. Fauci. Then he bribed scientists to not rat him out.
Today we also understand that Fauci’s policies ruined the economy, ruined business owners, ruined child development, destroyed our personal liberties, and ruined millions of lives.
It’s about time Fauci got a little feedback.
