Despite Being Super Popular, Only One Democrat Voted For SAVE Act In House

By William Teach February 13, 2026 – 10:30 am

They do not care what Americans want. They believe Americans should do what the Elites say

Only One House Democrat Voted In Favor of Voter ID to Prove Citizenship in US Elections

Only one House Democrat voted in favor of legislation that would require voter ID to prove citizenship in elections. The U.S. House of Representatives was able to pass the election integrity bill, despite opposition from all but one Democrat — a stark reminder why maintaining a majority in Congress is crucial for Republicans in today’s polarized political climate.

Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX)’s SAVE America Act, which seeks to keep non-citizens from voting in U.S. federal elections, passed 218 to 213 by the House of Representatives on Wednesday, and could go into effect as early as this November, according to a report by Fox News.

The only House Democrat who did not vote against the election integrity initiative was Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX).

The bill is an updated version of the initial Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, which was never taken up in the Senate after being passed by the House in April last year.

In addition to requiring photo ID to vote in federal elections, the new version of the legislation also aims to establish a federal proof of citizenship requirement in the voter registration process, as well as mandate that states maintain voter rolls purged of ineligible individuals.

Of course Democrats did this

(Dallas Express) A Pew Research Center survey found that 83% of Americans favor requiring government-issued photo ID to vote, with 95% of Republicans and 71% of Democrats in agreement; only 16% oppose it.

Gallup polling indicated 84% support for photo ID requirements, including 98% of Republicans, 84% of independents, and 67% of Democrats. Separately, 83% back proof of citizenship for first-time voter registration.

Additional surveys from Napolitan News Service and The Center Square also reflect strong backing, according to the White House.

CNN reporter Harry Enten was quoted as saying, “The bottom line is this: Voter ID is NOT controversial in this country. A photo ID to vote is NOT controversial in this country. It is not controversial by party and it is not controversial by race. The vast majority of Americans agree.”

Oh, but, it gets more funny

Why, exactly, do Democrats not want people to identify who they are when voting?

I’m also betting if Republicans can get it passed in the Senate the Usual Liberal Groups will sue, involving friendly judges.

Surprise: Newsom Pledges To Sue Trump Over Ending Endangerment Finding

By William Teach February 13, 2026 – 7:15 am

Ending the Obama era endangerment finding has made the authoritarian Elites very mad

Trump revokes landmark climate change rule; Newsom vows to sue

The Trump administration on Thursday revoked a scientific finding that long has been the central basis for U.S. action to regulate greenhouse gas emissions and fight climate change, the most aggressive move by the president to roll back climate regulations.

The rule finalized by the Environmental Protection Agency rescinds a 2009 government declaration, issued by the Obama administration, known as the endangerment finding that determined carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases endanger public health and welfare. (snip)

Legal challenges are certain for the action, which repeals all greenhouse gas emissions standards for cars and trucks, and could unleash a broader undoing of climate regulations on power plants, factories, and oil and gas facilities, experts say.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom blasted the move Thursday, and vowed to challenge it in court.

“Donald Trump may put corporate greed ahead of communities and families,” Newsom said. “But California will not stand by. We will sue to challenge this illegal action, and we will continue fighting climate pollution here in our state. We will continue to lead because the lives and livelihoods of our people depend on it.”

How, exactly, was repealing a rule illegal? Nowhere within federal law is CO2 or other greenhouse gases deemed pollutants. It was simply a political decision based on faulty and cult based “science”. Any rule that’s not required by duly passed law can be ended.

Environmental groups described Trump’s decision Thursday as the single biggest attack in U.S. history against federal authority to address climate change.

No matter what else they say, no matter what mushy muddle, that is the whole point: empowering the federal government to run everyone’s lives. All while the Elites excuse themselves. Remember this?

Tom Homan Says Minnesota Immigration Surge Ending

By William Teach February 13, 2026 – 7:00 am

It had to eventually happen, right?

Minnesota immigration enforcement surge is ending, Trump border tsar says

The US immigration enforcement surge in Minnesota will end, President Donald Trump’s border tsar told reporters on Thursday.

Tom Homan said Trump had approved his request to conclude the operation, adding he would stay in Minnesota “a little longer to oversee the drawdown, to ensure its success”.

Homan said Operation Metro Surge had resulted in many illegal immigrants who had committed violent crimes being detained for deportation. But the surge also sparked nationwide protests when two US citizens, Renee Good and Alex Pretti, were killed by immigration officers.

Officials in Minnesota have been able to “greatly reduce the number of targets” for immigration enforcement, Homan said, adding that Operation Metro Surge was a “great success”.

More than 4,000 undocumented immigrants had been arrested, according to Homan, including men he said were convicted of rape and other sexual misconduct.

Homan said Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has always had a presence in Minnesota and will continue to have one.

Of course, then we get nuts like the Daily Mail

The surge was always going to end at some point, that way they could move it elsewhere. That it lasted this long is wild. They arrested a lot of illegals, and I bet they obtained a lot of information on the Somalis who committed fraud. So, which Democrat run city is next?

Obama’s Crazy Endangerment Finding Ending Right Now

By William Teach February 12, 2026 – 1:29 pm

This is exciting and great news

Anyhow, this is what I had scheduled to post at 3

Trump’s plan to wipe out US climate rules relies on EPA rescinding its 2009 endangerment finding – but will courts allow it?

In 2009, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency formally declared that greenhouse gas emissions, including from vehicles and fossil fuel power plants, endanger public health and welfare. The decision, known as the endangerment finding, was based on years of evidence, and it has underpinned EPA actions on climate change ever since.

The Trump administration now wants to tear up that finding as it tries to roll back climate regulations on everything from vehicles to industries.

But the move might not be as simple as the administration hopes.

There’s no question that rescinding the endangerment finding would be challenged in court. The world just lived through the three hottest years on record, evidence of worsening climate change is stronger now than ever before, and people across the U.S. are increasingly experiencing the harm firsthand.

Several legal issues have the potential to stop the EPA’s effort. They include emails submitted in a court case that suggest political appointees sought to direct the scientific review that the EPA is using to defend its plan. A federal judge also ruled on Jan. 30 that the Department of Energy violated the law when it handpicked five researchers to write that climate science review. While that ruling doesn’t necessarily stop the EPA, it raises questions.

Well, you know the cultists (who do not practice what they preach) will challenge this in court, but, at the end of the day, the Supreme Court is going to rule, and I wouldn’t be surprised if they do it quickly. And kill the endangerment finding. Seriously, liberals think their insane stuff is never allowed to be ended.

The endangerment finding is really the backbone of the Fascist doomsday cult. It’s really the backbone of the Fascists finding a way to use ‘climate change’ as a way to institute authoritarianism nationwide.

Iran’s Working Hard To Protect Its Nuclear Facility From Potential Strikes

By William Teach February 12, 2026 – 10:30 am

They’re waiting for things to go boom

Iran rushes to protect Natanz, its most crucial nuclear site, from potential US strike

High-resolution satellite imagery of Iran’s largest and most crucial remaining nuclear facility shows a recent rush to protect it from potential American or Israeli aerial attack, according to the Institute for Science & International Security (ISIS).

Satellite imagery from February 10 appears to show that Tehran has taken advantage of delays in any such attack since the December 28 protests started to better defend the facility.

The facility in question is a large tunnel complex at Kolang-Gaz La Mountain, aka Pickaxe Mountain, a mountain near the series of Natanz nuclear facilities, which were the center of the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program until the Israel-Iran War of June 2025.

Most of the other Natanz facilities, including the existing centrifuges at the time, were destroyed in June 2025, but for reasons that have not been fully explained to date, this facility was not struck.

According to the think tank, the relatively new enormous underground facility is still not thought to be operational, one of the reasons it may not have been struck previously, but there are concerns that it could be used to enrich uranium or even for some kind of clandestine rush to a small nuclear weapon at some point if not dealt with.

If Trump and Israel want to destroy the facility they will. It’s all about denying Iran the ability to build a nuclear weapon, which, let’s be honest, they are not very good at, considering how long they’ve been trying. I mean, it took US scientists 3 years to develop the world’s 1st nuclear bomb, starting from scratch. Iran has been at it a lot longer even with all the knowledge from half a century of countries building nuclear weapons.

They are right to be worried

Pentagon orders second carrier strike group to prepare to deploy to Middle East: report

The Pentagon has reportedly ordered a second aircraft carrier strike group to prepare to deploy to the Middle East in support of potential military action against Iran.

President Trump has not yet given the carrier group the greenlight to deploy, but an order could be issued “in a matter of hours,” the Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday night, citing US officials.

The deployment would likely come from the US East Coast, and one carrier is being prepped to head out to sea in two weeks, an official told the publication.

The USS George H.W. Bush is currently conducting training exercises off the coast of Virginia and could be the carrier that ends up deploying.

The warship is capable of launching F-35 stealth fighter jets, which would likely be needed for a strike inside Iran, according to the outlet.

Or, could be misdirection, and ships launch a whole bunch of cruise missiles. Or some B2s drop seriously heavy ordinance. Maybe the F35s simply go and destroy the hell out of Iran’s radar and missile defense systems across the country, then some B52s drop a buttload of bombs. Maybe it is time to go old school and decapitate Iran’s leadership, because, otherwise, the nation will never change. Plenty of protesters in Iran would agree.

Bummer: Brits Care Less And Less About Hotcoldwetdry

By William Teach February 12, 2026 – 7:15 am

I wonder why?

The ‘culture war’ on net zero: Why have Brits stopped supporting climate policies?

The UK’s “sense of urgency” on achieving net zero and supporting climate policies has taken a drastic tumble, according to a new survey.

In 2019, the UK became the first major economy in the world to pass laws to end its contribution to global warming. The ambitious target legally binds the nation to bring all greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2050, compared with its previous target of at least an 80 per cent reduction from 1990 levels. (snip)

In 2021, surveys found that 54 per cent of the British public believed the UK government should achieve net zero before the 2050 target. Now, this has fallen to just 29 per cent.

The study*, carried out by the Policy Institute at King’s College London, Ipsos and the Centre for Climate Change and Social Transformations also found that the proportion who feel the UK either doesn’t need to reach net zero by 2050 – or shouldn’t have a net zero target at all – has risen from nine per cent to 26 per cent over the same period.

Researchers warn that between 2024 and 2025, support for climate-driven policies such as low-traffic neighbourhoods, taxes on those who fly more, subsidies for electric vehicle (EV) purchases and a tax on environmentally damaging foods have all declined.

At the same time, opposition to some of these measures is now greater than support for them, marking a “stark reversal” of earlier attitudes.

I wonder if the study will jump into why?

Despite the majority of all age groups still favouring net zero by 2050, the percentage of 16-34-year-olds backing the target has dropped from 59 per cent in 2021 to 37 per cent in 2050.

Now, that has to hurt. If the yutes are bowing out of the cult, that does not bode well for the cult going forward. Bummer!

Anyhow, they try and blame the wider culture wars for diverting the attention of Brits, as well as the media focusing less on it. I’d suggest that people have had quite enough of the high taxes, high fees, high cost of energy, high cost of living. That they’re tired of government taking away their free speech, both because of climate cult beliefs and because the UK government has gone quite Fascist. They care more about 3rd worlders and Islamists being imported and given priority over actual British citizens. They do not want to be told what they can and can’t do, what they can and can’t buy, can and can’t eat. Where they can live. And so many more real world issues.

Doing Something about ‘climate change’ plays well in the 1st World when things are going well. When real world issues intrude no one actually cares.

Don’t think the Elites will give up, though. They will keep trying to shove cult business down the throats of the British citizens regardless.

NJ Governor Bans ICE From State Property And More Stupidity

By William Teach February 12, 2026 – 7:00 am

Seriously, how deranged are Democrats when it comes to protecting illegal aliens?

N.J. bans ICE from state property, unveils site to upload videos of agents

Gov. Mikie Sherrill on Wednesday unveiled a statewide portal for residents to upload photos and videos of federal immigration activity as her administration moves to more aggressively scrutinize the work of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Standing alongside Acting Attorney General Jennifer Davenport, Sherrill also announced a new “know your rights” website and signed an executive order barring ICE agents from accessing non?public areas of state property without a judicial warrant.

The ban will also prevent agents from using property as staging areas for operations.

“We have seen dozens, even hundreds of videos of Donald Trump’s ICE agents abusing their power, smashing cars, tear gassing families, gunning down American citizens and violating our most basic rights,” Sherrill said.

When does Mickie take some illegal aliens in herself? She’s not using her regular house, instead staying in the governor’s mansion, right? Anyhow, why did Democrats have almost no problem when Obama was rounding up illegals? Why were there no protests, EOs to keep ICE off state property (yeah, that has zero authority), videos of federal agents doing their jobs when Obama was rounding up and deporting the hell out of illegals, often without court hearings?

State officials have said the database will allow residents to upload photos, videos and information about ICE activity, with the material reviewed by the Attorney General’s Office.

Davenport also signaled she was willing to prosecute federal agents for violations of state law.

Yeah, good luck with that. Good luck getting NJ law enforcement to arrest federal agents doing their legal jobs. Anyway, here’s Davenport, who forgot to mention a few things

““On February 10th, ICE was conducting a targeted enforcement to arrest Jesus Fabian Lopez-Banegas, a criminal illegal alien from Honduras. His criminal history includes drug trafficking charges, drug possession, and driving under the influence.

In 2021, a judge issued this criminal illegal alien an order of removal.

“In an attempt to evade arrest, Lopez-Banegas rammed into a law enforcement vehicle and weaponized his vehicle in an attempt to run an officer over. “Following his training, the officer defensively used his firearm and shot out the tires of the vehicle to stop the threat. Thankfully, no one was injured. Officers arrested Banegas and took him into ICE custody.”

Huh.

Your Fault: Hothouse Earth Is Totally Seen By Scientists

By William Teach February 11, 2026 – 4:27 pm

Had you simply stopped showering every day and voted Democrat we could have stopped this

Scientists See Growing Risk of ‘Hothouse Earth’ as Warming Gains Pace

Warming is accelerating, threatening a cascade of tipping points that destabilize the climate. In a new paper, scientists say the risk of “hothouse Earth” is greater than once believed.

“After a million years of oscillating between ice ages separated by warmer periods, the Earth’s climate stabilized more than 11,000 years ago, enabling agriculture and complex societies,” said William Ripple of Oregon State University, lead author of the paper. “We’re now moving away from that stability and could be entering a period of unprecedented climate change.”

First, there is no such thing as truly stable. Over the past 8K years we’ve had numerous warm and cool periods, and, since we do not have full world wide data we cannot make an accurate, scientific comparison to previous warm periods. Further, if they have to describe warming as ‘climate change’, all measure of science has been run over by a steamroller.

A decade ago, countries set forth in the Paris Agreement a target of capping warming at 1.5 degrees Celsius. Earth is now likely breaching that threshold. The world has not officially surpassed the Paris target, which will be judged according to the average temperature over 20 years, but the average temperature over the last three years exceeded 1.5 degrees.

“Likely breaching” but not officially surpassed. Uh huh.

Scientists say that the Earth is likely as hot or hotter than at any point in the last 125,000 years, while carbon dioxide levels are at their highest in at least 2 million years. And warming is gaining pace as the ability of the planet to soak up our emissions weakens. Forests that were once carbon sinks are becoming carbon sources as they succumb to fire and drought, while the oceans are losing the capacity to absorb carbon dioxide.

“Likely” is not a scientific measure. They also do realize that life on Earth survived much warmer periods, right? And that the oceans were much warmer and much higher (that’s how you get coral islands), right? Well, no. Not in Cult World.

Scientists warn that the crossing of one tipping point can push the Earth past another, in a domino effect. The melting of the Greenland ice sheet, for instance, could weaken Atlantic currents, disrupting rainfall over the Amazon. A cascade of tipping points could bring about “hothouse Earth,” said coauthor Johan Rockström, director of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research in Germany. “Our paper shows that we’re not there yet — but we’re very close.”

They’ve been saying the same thing for at least 20+ years and will be saying the same thing for at least 20 more. Could they tell us when hothouse Earth is supposed to appear?
