Today’s system prioritizes diversity and inclusion over merit and skill.
President Donald Trump has moved decisively to eradicate “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion” initiatives in the federal government and private sector. His actions are a great step forward, but one area of federal policy has been spared his efforts so far—U.S. immigration policy remains infused with DEI principles. Trump has a historic opportunity to fix this problem and put America first.
JUST IN: Israeli PM Netanyahu Credits TRUMP for the peace deal in the Middle East
FOX'S DOOCY: "We have heard Biden and Trump take credit for the hostage and cease-fire deals. Who do you think deserves more credit?"

Off topic President Trump announces plan to obliterate Iran in the event of his assassination.
HOLY SH*T: President Trump says he has left instructions to OBLITERATE Iran if they assassinates him:
"That would be a terrible thing for them to do, not because of me. If they did that, they would be obliterated. That would be the end. I've left instructions."

Space constraints and legal limits are forcing the freeing of detainees despite administration’s tough stance.
With more than 8,000 immigrants arrested by federal agents since President Trump arrived back at the White House, some have already been released back into America despite the promise of mass deportation.
With the number of arrests increasing, space constraints at Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facilities, and federal court orders that forbid indefinite detention, ICE officials have been forced to release some of those arrested as an alternative to holding them until deportation can be completed, according to a report from NBC News.
I trust Homan to work this out.
Public Safety Minister David McGuinty says the new “fentanyl czar” position Canada is creating after a deal with U.S. President Donald Trump will be a commanding role to coordinate a national campaign against illegal production and distribution of the deadly opioid.
“This new fentanyl czar position is one that will transcend any one part of the government will pull together a full Canadian national response between our provinces, our police of local jurisdiction, and work with our American authorities,” Mr. McGuinty told CNN in an interview Tuesday.
While we talk about how a trade war is also harmful to Americans, how do Americans feel about it?
There are 335 million of them, so I didn’t get around to everyone over the weekend, but I did talk to three of my more politically engaged and conservative friends in the U.S., in three different states, and I thought you might find it interesting from their viewpoint.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., President Donald Trump’s nominee for Health and Human Services Secretary, passed through the Senate Finance Committee on Tuesday in a 14-13 vote.
Senators in the committee voted on Tuesday morning. All eyes were on Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA), who announced right before the vote that he would, in fact, vote yes on Kennedy.
Canadian sports fans might be persuaded to stop jeering the American national anthem. At least for the next 30 days.
The trade war is off. At least for now. But that is of limited solace. And even if the next deadline somehow comes and goes without the resumption of hostilities, it’s not clear when Canadians will again be able to view the United States as a reliable friend or predictable ally.
The resolution, such as it is, came on Monday after Canadian officials agreed to a handful of additional measures to respond to Donald Trump’s stated concerns about fentanyl moving across his country’s northern border — the appointment of a “fentanyl czar,” listing Mexican drug cartels as terrorist entities, and investing $200 million toward gathering intelligence on organized crime.
So long as Trudeau masquerades as PM we’ll be in trouble.
It took Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum a single phone call to get Donald Trump to back off — at least temporarily — from his threat of tariffs.
Canada’s Justin Trudeau needed two.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is expected on Tuesday to become the first foreign leader to visit the White House since Donald Trump’s return to office.
The two leaders are set to discuss the state of the current ceasefire between Israel and Hamas Islamists in Gaza and explore paths toward ending the conflict altogether.
Prior to his arrival, Netanyahu’s office announced that he would dispatch a delegation to participate in a new round of negotiations in Doha, Qatar, later this week.
El Salvador has offered to take in criminals deported from the US, including those with US citizenship, and house them in its mega-jail.
The deal was announced after US Secretary of State Marco Rubio met Salvadorean President Nayib Bukele during his visit to the central American nation.
Bukele – whose iron-fist approach to gangs has won him plaudits from voters but been heavily criticised by human rights groups – said he had offered the US “the opportunity to outsource part of its prison system”.
Why did it take so long?
Justin Trudeau got a last-minute reprieve from Donald Trump on the 25% tariffs that were set to take effect, but only after a lot of drama, a drop in the stock market and the Canadian dollar dropping briefly into 67-cent territory.
Why so long? Because Canada’s China class along with Justin’s Khalistan pals made out like bandits.
Unless nothing changes, President Donald Trump’s threat of imposing 25 per cent tariffs on Canada will come to fruition on Tuesday. Barring last-minute negotiations between Trump and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, the two countries are heading for a trade war.
Canada is now in the early phases of what might be called the Seven Stages of Tariff Grief.
Bloc Québécois leader Yves-François Blanchet believes that early elections remain the best way to negotiate with the Donald Trump administration, which has just carried out its threat to impose customs tariffs on Canada.
Blanchet said he had not changed his position regarding the possible overthrow of the Liberal government on March 24. According to him, elections “as quickly as possible” will allow for a new Parliament that will be able to negotiate “in a sustainable manner” with the United States.
Someone has to beat this idea into Trudeau’s head.
The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) has spent tens of millions of U.S. taxpayer dollars on some shocking expenditures.
USAID was established in 1961 to provide money made by Americans to help countries develop abroad.
However, the agency has been shuttered because Donald Trump and Elon Musk have found that the aid being doled out overseas often does not accomplish core U.S. missions, like expanding education and improving infrastructure.
After years of discrimination the Inuit, the indigenous people of the Arctic who make up most of the population, could break away from Denmark
On a snowy hilltop overlooking a windswept bay in Nuuk, the tiny capital of Greenland, is a statue of the Christian missionary who led an expedition to colonise this vast island for Denmark in 1721. Three centuries on, after years of discrimination by Copenhagen against the local population, many Greenlanders wish that Hans Egede had never set sail.
Among the most vocal critics of Danish policies is Pele Broberg, the leader of Naleraq, an opposition party that is pushing hard for independence. “We have nothing in common with Denmark.
Nothing. We don’t have the same culture. We don’t have the same language. Nothing. What we have is systemic racism,” Broberg, a former foreign minister, said at his office in Greenland’s parliament, a small, two-storey building near Nuuk’s icy harbour.
