Salem Radio Network host Scott Jennings shut down former Department of Homeland Security Chief of Staff and “No Kings” agitator Miles Taylor Monday night by asking him one question about an arrest at San Francisco International Airport.
President Donald Trump on Saturday ordered United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents to assist Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officers who have been working without pay for over five weeks. Taylor complained about a Sunday arrest, which took place before Trump’s order took effect.
“Is there a single report today of something going awry with ICE agents… Maybe there is” Jenning asked before “CNN Newsnight” guest host Kasie Hunt responded, “Well, thank God, for 24 hours something didn’t happen.”
“There was. There was an ICE agent refusing to identify himself arresting a woman in an airport, freaking people out. They weren’t even sure. It was in San Francisco airport,” Taylor claimed, with Jennings responding, “Well, what kind of an interaction was it actually? Do you know the situation?”
ICE agents apprehended an illegal alien from Guatemala who tried to flee as the agency was trying to enforce a deportation order dating from 2019, according to a Monday post on X.
“It was an arrest. I don’t know, Scott. What information do you have?” Taylor asked, with Jennings responding by asking, “Who did they arrest? Now you’re bringing it up. Who did they arrest?”
Video of the arrest went viral on social media, with elected officials from the area, all Democrats, criticizing the Trump administration for the arrest.
“This arrest occurred BEFORE ICE officers were even deployed to bolster TSA efforts to help American travelers who are facing hours long lines across the country. On March 22, 2026, ICE officers arrested Angelina Lopez-Jimenez and Wendy Godinez-Jimenez at the San Francisco International Airport. The family has an outstanding final order of removal from an immigration judge since 2019,” a Department of Homeland Security spokesperson told to the Daily Caller News Foundation when reached for comment.
“While being escorted to the international terminal for processing, Lopez-Jimenez attempted to flee and resisted law enforcement officers. ICE is working as quickly as possible to repatriate the family unit to their home country of Guatemala,” the spokesperson added.
Democrats demanded new restrictions on ICE after the fatal shootings of Alex Pretti and Renee Nicole Good in January during the agency’s clashes with “rapid response groups” opposed to federal immigration enforcement operations. The proposed restrictions Democrats insist on include having ICE agents stop wearing masks and for agents to obtain a so-called “judicial warrant” before entering private property to arrest illegal immigrants.
ICE agents deployed to 14 airports in major cities, including Houston, Philadelphia, Atlanta and Chicago to mitigate a shortfall in TSA agents, many of whom are calling out due to the shutdown.

The Congressional Medal of Honor (MoH) Society provides a timeline for the MoH starting on February 13, 1861 when the first military action to earn a MoH was accomplished by Bernard JD Irwin who rescued 60 soldiers in Apache Pass, Arizona. But, the MoH was not yet proposed, so he was be awarded the MoH posthumously on January 24, 1894.
Iowa Senator James W Grimes introduced the legislation to create "medals of honor" to be issued to service members in the Navy. On December 21, 1861, President Lincoln signed the law to create the MoH for Navy enlisted personnel.
Of course, the Army could not be left out, so Massachusetts Senator Henry Wilson introduced legislation to create a MoH for the Army on February 17, 1862. President Lincoln signed the law to create the MoH for the Army on July 12, 1862. But, the law was for non-commissioned officers and privates. On March 3, 1863, an amendment to the law was approved to add Army Officers (Navy & Marine Officers would be added on March 3, 1915).
On March 25, 1863, the first Army Medal of Honor was awarded to 6 union soldiers, survivors of the Andrews' Raiders, by the Secretary of War, Edward Stanton. Private Jacob Parrott was first of this group to receive the MoH. This was followed on May 15, 1863, with the first Navy MoH award to Robert Williams. ISS Benton Quartermaster. Then, on July 10, 1863, Marine Corporal John F Mackie received the MoH for his actions on May 15, 1862 aboard the USS Galena.
In 1896, the ribbon is altered to red, white, and blue stripes while keeping the star and suspension bars the same. On April 23, 1904, the Army MoH is redesigned by General George Gillespie. The new design is a five-pointed star surrounded by a green laurel wreath suspended from a light blue ribbon with 13 stars. In 1913, the Navy redesigns their MoH to include the Army's light blue ribbon with 13 stars. In 1919, the Navy MoH is redesigned using the "Tiffany Cross" retaining the previous design for non-combat heroism. This "Tiffany Cross" design was discontinued August 9, 1942.
On June 26, 1897, new standards are amended to the MoH criterion. There must now be eyewitnesses, someone other than the recipient must make the recommendation, and a time limit of within 1 year after the event was enacted. On December 26, 2013, Congress changed the time limits, setting 3 years for the recommendation and 5 years for presentation of the MoH.
On September 20, 1905, President Theodore Roosevelt signs an EO stating that the MoH must be awarded in a formal ceremony. Prior to this, the MoH was given to the recipient either through the mail or at a military muster.
On April 27, 1916, Congress created the Army & Navy MoH Honor Roll with a special monthly pension for those over 65 who were recognized for gallantry in conflict. On September 1, 2003, the MoH pension is increased to $1,000 per month with no restrictions based on age or occupation. On November 25, 2025, President Trump signed HR695 into law increasing the monthly pension for MoH recipients over 65 to $8,333.33 (discussed in my December 2, 2025 ANP Article). Between 1916 and 1917, the Army reviewed every MoH awarded and determined 911 recipients be removed from the Roll because the MoH was erroneously awarded.
On July 9, 1918, the Pyramid of Honor is established designating the differences between MoH, Silver Star, Purple Heart, and other military valor awards. USAMM provides a list of Military Ribbons & Medals Order of Precedence that includes a "build your rack" feature as well as other options to honor your military achievements (such as a shadow box or customized t-shirt).
On May 24, 1943, Signalman First class Douglas A Munro becomes the only Coast Guard member to be awarded the MoH for his heroism in Guadalcanal in September 1942. The MoH was posthumously given to his mother by President Franklin Roosevelt.
On August 10, 1956, the US Air Force designs its own MoH design with Congressional authorization. In 1965, the Air Force design featured an Air Force Coat of Arms and the head of the Statue of Liberty. Bernard Fisher is the first to receive this redesigned MoH from President Lyndon Johnson at the White House on January 1, 1967 for his actions in Vietnam in March 1966.
On July 25, 1963, Congress approved new guidelines for awarding the MoH including criterion that the individual was have been "engaged in an action against an enemy of the US . . . while engaged in military operations involving a conflict with an opposing foreign force . . . or while serving with friendly forces in an armed conflict against an opposing armed force in which the US is not a belligerent party."
As of January 1, 2021, the following laws apply to the MoH:
Section 2 establishes the Council (PCAST) with not more than 24 members to include the Assistant to the President for Science and Technology (APST) and the Special Advisor for AI & Crypto; both will serve as co-chairs. The other 22 members will be from outside the Federal Government and appointed by the President.
Section 3 details the function of the Council:
respond to requests from the President or Co-Chairs for information, analysis, evaluation, or advice
solicit info and ideas from a broad range of stakeholders
serve as advisory committee identified in PL 102-194 § 101(b) as amended by 15 USC 511(b)
serve as the advisory panel in PL 108-153 § 4 amended by 156 USC 7503
provide advice from non-Federal sectors to National Science and Technology Council (NSTC) when asked
Section 4 specifies the administration of the Council authorizing:
heads of executive departments and agencies to provide the Council with scientific and technological information
create standing subcommittees and ad hoc groups
provide advice and analysis in classified matters (which may necessitate members having appropriate clearances)
DOE shall provide funding and administration and technical support
members shall serve without compensation; but, may receive travel expenses (including per diem)
Secretary of Energy may perform functions of the President under the Federal Advisory Committee Act as amended in 5 USC
Section 5 terminates the Committee in 2 years (January 23, 2027) unless extended by the President.
Section 6 revokes EO 14007 of January 27, 2021 as amended by EO 14109 of September 29, 2023.
I don't know about you but seeing Mark Zuckerberg, Michael Dell, Larry Ellison, and Marc Andreessen on this list to be advisors to the President is concerning.
On March 25, 2026, the White House published the article Promise Made, Promise Kept: President Trump Brings Another American Home announcing Dennis Coyle's return to American Soil after more than a year in captivity in Afghanistan. Katie Pavlich, during a March 24, 2026 NewsNation interview with President Trump, asked about Mr. Coyle to which President Trump responded "I'll take care of that." Mr. Coyle was released with the assistance of the United Arab Emirates and Qatar. While the Trump Administration is thankful Mr. Coyle has been released, they point out that there is more to do as many other Americans are still being unjustly detained.

This bill provides FY2026 appropriations for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
Specifically, the bill provides appropriations to DHS for Departmental Management, Intelligence, Situational Awareness, and Oversight, including
the Office of the Secretary and Executive Management;
the Management Directorate;
Intelligence, Analysis, and Situational Awareness; and
the Office of Inspector General.
In addition, the bill provides appropriations for Security, Enforcement, and Investigations, including
U.S. Customs and Border Protection,
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement,
the Transportation Security Administration,
the U.S. Coast Guard, and
the U.S. Secret Service.
The bill provides appropriations for Protection, Preparedness, Response, and Recovery, including
the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, and
the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
The bill provides appropriations for Research, Development, Training, and Services, including
U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services,
the Federal Law Enforcement Training Centers, and
the Science and Technology Directorate.
The bill also sets forth requirements and restrictions for using funds provided by this and other appropriations acts.
This bill passed the House on January 22, 2026. On February 12, 2026, the Senate held their first vote (52-47) followed by 4 more votes: 50-45, 51-45, 51-46, and 47-37. On March 25, 2026, the Senate again voted on Cloture on the Motion to Proceed which failed with 54 yeas (53 Republicans and 1 Democrat) and 46 nays (44 Democrats and 2 Independents). Supposedly, this bill contained everything the Democrats stated they wanted; yet, they voted against this bill which would have ended the partial shutdown and paid DHS employees who have been without pay for 40 days now.
At this point, the Senate majority needs to do what it needs to do to fund DHS and re-open our government fully. What should voters do when their 'elected' representatives in Congress do the opposite of what the majority of their voters want them to do? For a group that expounds on "democracy" which is governance by the majority, they sure aren't listening to the majority!

A new lawsuit Newhouse v. U.S. Agency for Global Media docket # 1:26-cv-00980 filed in District Court, District of Columbia on March 23, 2026 about USAGM Dismantling where former Voice of America employees sued the U.S. Agency for Global Media and Voice of America over the Trump Administration’s efforts to close USAGM and VOA. The lawsuit seeks the following relief:
A permanent injunction that:
Enjoins Defendants from violating Plaintiffs’ First Amendment right to be free from viewpoint discrimination;
Enjoins Defendants from violating Plaintiffs’ First Amendment right to receive information; and
Enjoins Defendants from violating the Statutory Firewall;
A declaration that Defendants’ conduct alleged herein violates the First Amendment;
A declaration that Defendants’ conduct alleged herein violates the Statutory Firewall and the Administrative Procedure Act;
Order Defendants to comply with Congressional statutes that require VOA to “serve as a consistently reliable and authoritative source of news,” 22 U.S.C. § 6202(c), and require international USAGM outlets to provide “news which is
consistently reliable and authoritative, accurate, objective, and comprehensive,” Id. § 6202(a), (b) (and, similarly, 22 U.S.C. § 1465aa), including by enjoining Defendants, and those acting in concert with them, from taking any steps that would cause USAGM or its outlets to be unable to effectively disseminate news and opinion that is “accurate, objective, and comprehensive.”
Award Plaintiffs nominal damages;
Award Plaintiffs reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs; and
Grant such other relief as this Court deems just and proper.
This lawsuit is a continuation of the VOA's lawsuits against Kari Lake discussed in my March 25, 2026 ANP Article. VOA is a partisan propaganda machine with TDS. My taxpayer dollars should not be used to support this organization. Even their opening statements in the lawsuit show how biased they are:
This is a case about censorship and propaganda carried out by the United States government. It comes in the midst of an international crisis and conflict, when access to unbiased news and information, as mandated by the Constitution and by Congress, is crucial.
In the last year, President Donald J. Trump and his appointees have done everything in their power to silence and dismantle Voice of America (“VOA”), an independent, federally funded news outlet required by law to bring unbiased news to the world. Frustrated in that effort by the courts, the Administration has now taken a different tack: to use its governmental authority to control VOA’s substantive output—the content of its broadcasts and publications—by suppressing coverage of events that it wishes had not occurred, and, separately, by directing that its own partisan messages be passed off to viewers and listeners as “news.” Censorship and propaganda are two sides of the same coin. All of this violates the federal statutes that govern VOA, and the Constitution itself; and all of this undermines the credibility of the United States in the eyes of the world.
These violations are far from theoretical; they have real-world impacts in real time. Among other things, the President has launched an undeclared war on the Islamic Republic of Iran, ostensibly with the goal of encouraging opponents of the Iranian regime to rise up in counterrevolution. The Administration—acting through Defendants Michael Rigas, Kari Lake, and other political appointees at Defendant United States Agency for Global Media (“USAGM”), the federal agency that oversees VOA—has censored the news coming out of Iran: interviews, video footage, and stories about anti-government protests within Iran have been suppressed. Reporting on certain elements in opposition to the Iranian regime have been banned from VOA’s Persian Service, rendering untrustworthy a once-respected source of independent news about Iran.
This case is actually about MONEY. Taxpayer money. This organization is about as anti-US as an organization can be (well, I think PBS is equal if not worse). The simple fact that they are calling the military actions taken against Iran as an "undeclared war" show their bias. They could have truthfully stated "Congress has not officially declared the military actions taken in Iran as a War." The US has taken military action against other governments in the past without having those actions officially declared a war by Congress. And I am sure they will do so in the future. What this lawsuit is describing is the fact that the VOA cannot become a voice for Iran while still calling themselves the voice of America.
Of course, if Congress would act to declare the act that allows the government to lie, propagandize, and trick our population (which they have recently voted to not do), all this nonsense would cease.
VOA is specifically named in the Smith-Mundt Act: US Information and Educational Exchange Act of 1948 (PL 80-402):
information produced by VOA for audiences outside the United States shall not be disseminated within the United States … but, on request, shall be available in the English language at VOA, at all reasonable times following its release as information abroad, for examination only by representatives of United States press associations, newspapers, magazines, radio systems, and stations, and by research students and scholars, and, on request, shall be made available for examination only to Members of Congress.
It will be interesting to see how the activist judges at the DC courts will handle this since VOA is acting in direct violation of PL 80-402. Oh, let's not forget that in their lawsuit, the VOA does not bring up PL 80-402 which gives the US Government the authority to censor them.
Peyton attended the College of William & Mary Grammar School until 1739, when he traveled to London where he studied law at Middle Temple at the Inns of Court in London for the next 5 years. In 1743, he passed the Bar.
In 1744, Peyton was appointed AG of the Colony of Virginia. In 1748, he was elected to the Virginia House of Burgesses (in which he would serve until his death in 1775).
In 1751, these dual posts created a conflict of interest concerning the governor's imposition of fees for certifications of land patents. The House of Burgesses objected to the fees. However, as AG, his job was to defend the governor's imposition of fees. Ultimately, the fees were dropped but not because of anything Peyton did.
In 1765, Peyton was tasked to draft objections to the Stamp Act; however, Patrick Henry submitted 7 resolutions, 5 of which were passed, against the Stamp Act before Peyton finished his draft. In 1766, Peyton resigned as the AG (king's attorney) when he was elected speaker of the House of burgesses.
Peyton was the last speaker of the House of Burgesses because the burgesses were replaced first by the Virginia conventions then by the House of Delegates in 1776. Peyton was president of the 3rd Virginia Convention in July 1775 when the Committee of Safety was established.
Peyton died October 22, 1775, at age 54, after experiencing a 5-hour stroke while dining with Thomas Jefferson in Philadelphia. He died later that evening. Peyton left everything to his wife in his will (available online here) with instructions to pay his existing debs by selling whatever was necessary. He is interred at the chapel (renamed Wren Building) of the College of William & Mary.
Those are some of the exact words used by Google’s censors, aka 'Orwellian content police,' in describing many of our controversial stories.

The North Atlantic Treaty Organization does not include Ukraine; nevertheless and notwithstanding the objections of NATO members Hungary and Slovakia, the American-led military alliance insists on sending money and weapons to the Kyiv regime warring with the Russian Federation over territories whose people overwhelmingly identify as Russian. Former Dutch prime minister and current secretary general of NATO, Mark Rutte, has stated on multiple occasions that the military alliance would continue to help defend non-NATO-member Ukraine. According to Ukraine’s newly appointed, thirty-something-year-old defense minister, Mykhailo Fedorov, Ukraine has over two million draft dodgers and a quarter of a million active-duty troops who have gone AWOL. So NATO is protecting a non-NATO country whose men refuse to fight. NATO is assisting a Kyiv dictatorship that depends almost entirely upon conscription (including the violent “busification” of “recruits” after draft officers break into vehicles and homes with drawn weapons).
While the E.U. and NATO fight Russian authoritarianism by protecting Ukrainian authoritarianism, both institutions have remained relatively quiet as member states sustain actual attacks. Seven months after Russia moved to annex the Russophone regions of Ukraine, the Nord Stream pipelines transporting natural gas from Russia to Germany were sabotaged and made inoperable. German, Dutch, and French energy companies own interests in the pipelines. Subsequent German investigations have identified a dozen Ukrainian suspects, including members of a Kyiv diving school where military personnel train. Several independent journalists have concluded that Ukraine’s military carried out the underwater demolition of the Nord Stream pipelines.
If Ukraine’s government was, in fact, responsible for the destruction of the pipelines, then Ukraine (a non-NATO member) destroyed property belonging to NATO members. Ukraine’s alleged act of sabotage cut off Russia’s inexpensive natural gas from most of Europe. (Prior to the war, Russia supplied 45% of the E.U.’s natural gas imports.) So the destruction of the pipelines has raised the cost of energy (and the price of finished goods transported within the Union) for European citizens. NATO continues to protect a nation that may have directly attacked members of the military alliance.
Similarly, Ukraine has caused an international incident with regard to the European-Russian Druzhba (which means, “friendship”) Pipeline that was jointly constructed to transport Russian oil to Ukraine, Belarus, Poland, Hungary, Slovakia, Germany, and the Czech Republic. Last year, Ukraine’s military bombed several pumping stations servicing the pipeline. This year, Ukraine’s government claims that Russia attacked the Ukrainian section of the Druzhba Pipeline (a claim the Russian Federation denies), effectively halting all deliveries of Russian oil to Hungary and Slovakia. As both nations are almost entirely dependent upon this oil supply, the pipeline’s inoperability has created a major energy crisis for citizens of Hungary and Slovakia. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán and Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico blame Ukraine for the oil shutdown. Ukraine’s president/dictator Zelensky says he has no intention of repairing the pipeline. After Hungary and Slovakia blocked additional sanctions on the Russian Federation and a ninety-billion-euro gift (a loan that never needs to be repaid) for Ukraine’s regime, Ukraine’s military destroyed another critical transit node of the Druzhba Pipeline in Russia.
Orbán followed up by very publicly intercepting part of Zelensky’s alleged money-laundering operation running through Hungary. Foreign Minister Szijjártó revealed that Hungary had already confiscated Ukrainian “mafia” funds that included tens of millions of U.S. dollars, tens of millions of euros, and a few million dollars in gold bars. In addition, the foreign minister has alleged that several billion dollars worth of currency and gold have been transported through Hungary to Ukraine in the last two months. A former Ukrainian general who once oversaw Zelensky’s intelligence service and secret police was detained in Hungary in connection to the suspected money laundering. An angry Zelensky again threatened to send Ukraine’s “special military operators” to Prime Minister Orbán’s home.
In response to Zelensky’s increasingly belligerent behavior, Prime Minister Fico urged the European Commission to distance itself from Zelensky’s “outrageous blackmailing statements.” The best that the Commission could do was a short statement from its deputy chief spokesperson, Olof Gill, in which the Eurocrat clinically observed: “Specifically in relation to the comments made by President Zelensky, we are very clear as the European Commission that that type of language is not acceptable. There must not be threats against EU member states.” At the same time, E.U. leaders pledged to provide for Ukraine’s budgetary needs for at least the next two years.
Ukraine is effectively waging an economic/energy war against Hungary and Slovakia. Hungary and Slovakia are members of the E.U. and NATO. Ukraine is a member of neither. Nevertheless, the E.U. and NATO continue to take Ukraine’s side. It is as if “unions” and “alliances” mean nothing.
The U.S. House Judiciary Committee recently concluded that the E.U.’s Rapid Response System almost exclusively targets so-called “right-wing” and “populist” political candidates. The European Commission has extended its online censorship campaign to one week after Hungary’s elections, allowing Eurocrats to monitor and censor public conversations concerning the election’s legitimacy. While E.U.-funded NGOs work to oust Prime Minister Orbán, E.U.-funded censors will be in a position to label allegations of European election meddling as nothing more than “Russian talking points.”
Just as in Romania, Moldova, Germany, France, and the Netherlands, the E.U. will use its army of paid “influencers” and propagandists posing as “journalists” to manipulate the outcome of Hungary’s elections. To “save democracy,” Brussels’s Eurocrats believe that they are entitled to choose each nation’s leaders. They don’t want Orbán because Hungary’s current prime minister continues to block the E.U.’s funding for Ukraine. Brussels would do anything for martial-law-holdover-president/dictator Zelensky and non-E.U. Ukraine. But allowing the citizens of E.U.-member Hungary to vote for their own national interests? That simply won’t do.

On March 24, 2026, President Trump signed Proclamation National Agriculture Day, 2026 celebrating our Nation's ranchers and farmers for their hard work, determination, and land stewardship. The Trump Administration is promoting fair trade opening new international markets to our farmers and ranches. President Trump writes:
As the great President George Washington said in his eighth annual message to the Congress, “It will not be doubted, that with reference either to individual or national welfare, agriculture is of primary importance.” This National Agriculture Day, we carry forward this commitment to the farmers, ranchers, growers, producers, and foresters who feed our Nation, fuel our prosperity, and sustain our glorious way of life.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim March 24, 2026, as National Agriculture Day. I encourage all Americans to observe this day by recognizing the preeminent role that agriculture plays in our daily lives, acknowledging agriculture’s continuing importance to rural America and our country’s economy, and expressing our deep appreciation of farmers, growers, ranchers, producers, national forest system stewards, private agricultural stewards, and those who work in the agriculture sector across the Nation.
Like Greece, the United States was born in the tradition of republican self-rule and is sustained by citizens who believe that life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness are our sacred birthright. The histories of our two nations testify that an oppressed people will endure any trial to establish a truly just government, defend their inheritance at all costs, and secure the blessings of liberty for themselves and their children.
Today, the Greek American community enriches the story of our Nation through their enterprise, faith in God, and unyielding passion for the principles that have defined the American way of life since 1776. Greece stands shoulder to shoulder with the United States in our values, our commitment to the defense of our Western ideals, and our devotion to the cause of peace throughout the world.
As America marks 250 glorious years of independence, we draw inspiration from the example of the Greek people who refused to surrender their sovereignty and preserved the flame of self-government. Together, our two nations are allies in freedom, united by history, tested by struggle, and confident in the promise of a radiant future. On this 205th Greek Independence Day, we celebrate that enduring spirit, which first stirred in Athens and inspired our Founding Fathers in Philadelphia, whose genius and devotion to the cause of human freedom will never cease to inspire people on both sides of the Atlantic.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim March 25, 2026, as Greek Independence Day: A National Day of Celebration of Greek and American Democracy. I call upon the people of the United States to observe this day with appropriate ceremonies and activities.
So now we are recognizing historical events of other countries/governments? Where is America First?
On March 24, 2026, President Trump signed EO Further Continuance of the Federal Emergency Management Agency Review Council extends the establishment of the Federal Emergency Management Agency Review Council (the original EO 14180 signed January 24, 2025 and the first extension EO 14378 were discussed in my January 25, 2026 ANP Article) through May 29, 2026 or 10 days after the required report is submitted to the President. With the Democrat partial government shutdown, FEMA workers are currently working without pay, so I am sure it is difficult to produce a report on an agency that is currently not fully functional due to the Democrats withholding of funding for DHS.
On March 24, 2026, the Office of the First Lady published the statement First Lady Melania Trump Launches Fostering the Future Together, 45 Member Nations Attend the Inaugural Coalition Summit (discussed in my March 20, 2026 ANP Article). The First Lady emphasized global partnership importance to ensuring children have the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive in a rapidly evolving digital world. She advocated for research, regional engagement, and partnerships with a goal of prioritizing children providing them access to education and technology so they will be ready to succeed in an AI, high tech future, highlighting public-private collaboration to achieve these goals.
Day 1 of the summit is now complete with attendees participating in working sessions covering EdTech Tools, AI in Education, Safety and Protection Online, and Digital Literacy. The summit continues through March 25, 2026 at the White House.
On March 24, 2026, the Senate held 2 votes on the SAVE America Act (discussed in my March 19, 2026 ANP Article).
The first vote was a Motion to Table (Schumer's motion to suspend Rule XXV) passed 53 yeas (53 Republicans) to 47 nays (45 Democrats & 2 Independents).
The second vote was a Motion to Table (to refer the House message to accompany S1383 to the Committee on Rules and Administration with instructions) passed 53 yeas (53 Republicans) to 47 nays (45 Democrats & 2 Independents).
On March 24, 2026, the White House published the article Secretary Markwayne Mullin Is Ready to Deliver on President Trump’s Agenda. As a business owner, rancher, and former Congressman and Senator, Secretary Mullin, now the 9th Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), knows what the Trump Administration expects from DHS and is willing to exceed those expectations.
Based on the foregoing, the Court will GRANT IN PART and DENY IN PART each motion, and the Statutory Minimum Memorandum, the placement of USAGM employees on administrative leave, and the cessation of USAGM broadcasting shall be VACATED and SET ASIDE. A Separate order consistent with this opinion shall issue this date.
Upon consideration of the plaintiffs’ [Widakuswara 166, Abramowitz 103] Motion for Partial Summary Judgment, the defendants’ [Widakuswara 189, Abramowitz 118] Cross-Motion for Partial Summary Judgment, and the entire record, it is hereby ORDERED

On March 22, 2026, Defendant Council Derek Weiss, informed the US Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit via letter letting the court know that the government's request for a stay pending appeal is unchanged. The government plans to file a reply on Tuesday, March 24, 2026.
At least these cases are now out of Judge Lambert's jurisdiction and into the Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit (although, it, too, is full of activist judges). Once the Court of Appeals rules for the plaintiffs, it can finally go to SCOTUS. Taxpayers should not have to support partisan "media" and associated contractors.
On March 23, 1765, the Sons of Liberty clubs form in Boston then spread elsewhere in reaction to Britain's Stamp Act of 1765 (discussed in my March 21, 2026 ANP Article). The Sons of Liberty were a loosely organized, clandestine, and sometimes violent political organization that came about because of Britain's actions. They used "No Taxation without Representation" as a rallying cry.
The group was first known as The Loyal Nine whose original members were Benjamin Edes, George Trott, Henry Bass, John Avery, John Smith, Joseph Field, Stephen Cleverly, Thomas Chase, and Thomas Crafts. As time went on and frustration with Britain escalated, The Loyal Nine morphed into the Sons of Liberty whose members included Alexander McDougall, Benedict Arnold, Benjamin Edes, Benjamin Rush, Charles Thomson, Haym Solomon, Isaac Sears, James Otis, James Swan, John Hancock, John Lamb, Joseph Warren, Marinus Willett, Oliver Wolcott, Patrick Henry, Paul Revere, Samuel Adams, Thomas Young, and William Mackay.
The Sons of Liberty were responsible for popularizing the use of tar and feathers to punish and humiliate those who offended the colonists. Tar and feathering was originally used by sailors to punish fellow sailors.
When the Sons of Liberty began, they considered themselves loyal subjects of Britain. Over the course of the Revolution, members began to oppose support to Britain. The Boston chapter of the Sons of Liberty organized and executed the Boston Tea Party of 1773, led by Samuel Adams. They also joined the various states' Committee of Safety.
After the Battle of Lexington and Concord, the Sons of Liberty members took positions in the state and national government. The Sons of Liberty are remembered and honored through the Sons of the American Revolution.
Those are some of the exact words used by Google’s censors, aka 'Orwellian content police,' in describing many of our controversial stories. Stories later proven to be truthful and light years ahead of the mainstream media. But because we reported those 'inconvenient truths' they're trying to bankrupt ANP.
