Easter – THE CELEBRATION OF CHRIST’S RESURRECTION
Birzer: The Brilliant Darkness of a Friday Afternoon
As Jesus looked down from the cross, so close to three o’clock on a Friday afternoon, he saw his “mother, with her sister, Mary wife of Clopas, and Mary of Magdala.” Next to the three Marys stood “the disciple whom he loved,” St. John. For nearly four decades, this scene has haunted me. As Catholics, we focus so much on Jesus’s physical suffering on the cross, the pain his mother must have felt, and the forthcoming death and resurrection that we often readily and understandably skip a person who is vital—actually, fundamentally and profoundly critical—to the entire story: St. John. Tradition tells us that John was the youngest, that he was the last to write his Gospel, and that he was the only apostle not to have been brutally martyred. At the moment that Jesus looked down from the Cross, He gave His mother to John, asking him and his house to shelter her. “’There is your mother’; and from that moment the disciple took her into his home.” While I have often wondered what St. John must have felt—the pain and the anguish—at seeing his savior crucified, I have wondered far more often what Jesus must have felt, especially given that He was fully man as well as fully God. No doubt, it meant a great deal to Him to have the four by his side in His greatest moment of agony. All to the good. But, as a man, what must He have thought knowing . . .
Powell: Reflections on Easter
While Christmas—the birth date of the Messiah, Jesus Christ—marks the watershed of splitting calendar history into two epochs, B.C. and A.D., Easter marks the day and commemorates actual events, however miraculous, that followed the crucifixion and death of Christ that transformed the world forever.
But how and why would that torturous event and extreme sorrow associated with the death of the messiah affect eternity in a positive way? Why should Easter be a joyful time? The answer is neither elusive nor complicated. There are many religions of the world going back thousands of years. But only one of them, Christianity, has a founder who professed to be the Messiah—the son of God—who provided irrefutable proof of who he was by conquering death through resurrection. Easter is the celebration of Christ’s resurrection. Christ is absolutely unique in being the only person in history who was pre-announced starting a thousand years before he was born, with over 100 prophetic accounts from 18 different prophets from the Old Testament between the tenth and the fourth centuries BC—predicting the specifics of his coming birth, life, and death.

NOTABLE QUOTES
Steven Watts contributor to The American Mind: The end game for therapeutic/postmodern leftists is to shut down all opposing ideas in order to protect their sacred feelings.
Jeff Goldstein I contributor to The Federalist: Where we once were conceived of statist authoritarianism as an iron boot forever pressing on our necks, today it’s a Christian Louboutin red-bottomed pump, worn by a dude in a lace dress and zebra thong, stomping on our faces forever. Only we’re compelled to dig the kink. The revolution will be accessorized, and you’ll learn to like it, or else.
Eric Utter contributor to American Thinker: People traditionally joined the Navy to explore the world and burnish their character, not to explore their gender identity and sexual preferences.
Brandon Meeks contributor to The American Mind: As it stands, I belong to neither the Democrats nor the Republicans. I belong to God, my family, and to the Arkansas dirt forever mingled with my own blood. But without any trace of irony, I think it is precisely that kind of sentiment that can make a person a decent American. By the grace of God, there might still be quite a lot of us out there.
Nancy Pelosi former House Speaker (D-CA): “People ask me what are the three most important issues facing the Congress, and I always say the same thing: Our children, our children, our children. And no one has done more in every aspect of her public and private life for our children, our children, our children, than Hillary Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Hillary Clinton.”

Vespa: Does Trump See the Trap That’s Waiting for Him?
There is no gag order on Trump, who is now comfortably the frontrunner for the 2024 Republican nomination, something that Democrats want more than anything other than Trump in jail. Still, they know that’s not going to happen. The goal is to keep the former president in an endless loop of scandal and controversy while degrading his stock with moderate and independent voters. Yet, the judge’s non-gag order all but issues one—it’s highly subjective. In the words of Admiral Ackbar, “it’s a trap” (via NY Post): . . . […] Prosecutor Christopher Conroy raised Trump’s recent use of incendiary language on his Truth Social media platform, highlighting a number of the posts during the proceeding and handing the judge several examples printed on paper. […] Well, that’s freedom of speech, and muzzling the frontrunner for the GOP nomination is also bad politics, whether you like Trump or not. Yet, how this recommendation was framed is so broad that anything the DA’s office might not like could be construed as “making statements likely to incite violence or create civil unrest.”
Sundance: Alan Dershowitz Delivers a Solid Review About the Ridiculous Nature of the Trump Indictment, and the Remaining Cases as Constructed
Often when legal professor Alan Dershowitz appears on media segments he is short on time to give context to his review. However, in this lengthy interview by Steve Bannon {Direct Rumble Link Here} Mr. Dershowitz has the time to walk through the cases against President Trump and deconstruct the foundation of them.

Stauffer: MAYBE TRUMP CAN WIN THE GENERAL ELECTION
A Fox News poll released last week showed him up 30 points over Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, his nearest competitor. If – and this is a big if considering the first votes in the Republican primary are still ten months away – Trump clinches the GOP nomination, nearly every conservative pundit is quick to tell us he would ultimately lose the general election to President Joe Biden. But what if the pundits are wrong? […] While the current threat to America posed by the Biden administration is far more subtle than the rolling of German tanks over Europe during World War II, it is every bit as dangerous.
It was foolish to underestimate Trump in 2016 and it would be foolish to underestimate him now.

THE CORRUPT & DANGEROUS U.S. INTELLIGENCE/ADMINISTRATIVE STATE APPARATUS
Tabbi: Tablet’s Grand Opus on the Anti-Disinformation Complex
Years ago, when I first began to have doubts about the Trump-Russia story, I struggled to come up with a word to articulate my suspicions. If the story was wrong, and Trump wasn’t a Russian spy, there wasn’t a word for what was being perpetrated. This was a system-wide effort to re-frame reality itself, which was both too intellectually ambitious to fit in a word like “hoax,” but also probably not against any one law, either. New language would have to be invented just to define the wrongdoing, which not only meant whatever this was would likely go unpunished, but that it could be years before the public was ready to talk about it. Around that same time, writer Jacob Siegel — a former army infantry and intelligence officer who edits Tablet’s afternoon digest, The Scroll — was beginning the job of putting key concepts on paper. As far back as 2019, he sketched out the core ideas for a sprawling, illuminating 13,000-word piece that just came out this week. Called “A Guide to Understanding the Hoax of the Century: Thirteen ways of looking at disinformation,” Siegel’s Tablet article is the enterprise effort at describing the whole anti-disinformation elephant I’ve been hoping for years someone in journalism would take on.
[…] Siegel threads together all the disparate strands of a very complex story, in which the sheer quantity of themes is daunting: the roots in counter-terrorism strategy, Russiagate as a first great test case, the rise of a public-private “counter-disinformation complex” nurturing an “NGO Borg,” the importance of Trump and “domestic extremism” as organizing targets, the development of a new uniparty politics anointing itself “protector” of things like elections, amid many other things.

BIDEN/HARRIS/OBAMA’S AMERICA LAST REGIME: RADICAL TRANSFORMATION OF FOREIGN POLICY
Lane: Russia: New Cold War is Over, We Are Now in ‘Hot Conflict With the United States’
The United States is “playing with fire” and engaged in a hot “hybrid war” with Russia, having already graduated from the Cold War stage, a Russian government minister has claimed, incredibly even going so far as to blame the U.S. for rising nuclear tensions. The new Cold War is already over, a Kremlin spokesman has said, apparently looking past Russia’s own role in invading Ukraine and accusing the United States of “playing with fire” by pushing the world towards nuclear war that he insists Russians wish to avoid. The comments come just hours after Russia announced it had deployed nuclear-capable missiles to the borders of NATO in Belarus, and refitted Belarussian jets with the equipment to carry and drop nuclear bombs.
Norman: North Korean state media says US-South Korea military drills push region to ‘brink of a nuclear war’
North Korea state media is warning Thursday that recent U.S.-South Korea military drills are pushing the security situation in the region to “the brink of a nuclear war.” The fiery remarks come a day after the U.S. military flew nuclear-capable B-52 bombers over the Korean Peninsula during joint exercises with South Korea. Aircraft carrier USS Nimitz also has participated in naval anti-submarine drills this week alongside U.S., South Korean and Japanese destroyers.

Walsh: How Long Must This Go On?
While everyone’s fixated on the entirely predictable indictment of Donald Trump for picking his feet in Poughkeepsie, look who’s back, demanding more money we don’t have for a cause we should not be supporting, at the risk of starting World War III for no good reason, and look who’s printing it for him:
The Department of Defense announced a massive new military aid package for Ukraine on Tuesday valued at $2.6 billion. President Joe Biden authorized $500 million worth of ammunition for U.S.-provided HIMARS, air defense interceptors, artillery rounds, anti-armor systems, small arms, heavy equipment transport vehicles, and maintenance support through his authority to take weapons from U.S. stockpiles. In addition to the artillery and ammunition, . . .

Greenfield: Biden’s Israel Coup Covered Another Iran Deal Scheme
When lefty administrations go after conservative Israeli governments, it’s often because they’re carrying out a preemptive strike on policy that the Israelis would otherwise oppose. The ‘New Middle East’ and the Iran Deal were class examples. Now the Iran Deal that refuses to die, no matter how discredited it may be, is making a comeback in an even worse form. The Iran Lobby did not spend all of that time trying to elect Biden, nor did Iranian hackers try to intimidate Florida voters just to get the same old deal as under Obama. That deal was bad, but about a no-deal deal? […] So in classic negotiating posture, Iran gets billions in benefits in exchange for nothing. […] So the Biden regime is bent on forcing out an Israeli government that might actually take action or at least expose what it’s doing.

Utter: Department Of Defense official testifies that the military must be a ‘safe space’ for the non-binary
When a rainbow-colored Navy training video on the proper use of preferred pronouns surfaced last year, many people thought it was a joke. Sadly, many people were wrong. Recently, a top Department of Defense official offered testimony to Congress that doubled down on the video’s underlying message: the armed services must be a “safe space” in which each and every member feels validated and affirmed on his and/or her journey of self-discovery. Remarkably, the video discussed how to make the Navy a “safe space” for people who wish to explore their gender identity. People traditionally joined the Navy to explore the world and burnish their character, not to explore their gender identity and sexual preferences. This puts a new twist on basic training. “Am I a boy or a girl?” is really basic. Or perhaps neither or both…or something else entirely would be a better fit. Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead with my own personal gender journey!

Hutchison: ‘Reckless And Destructive’: Tucker Carlson Says Biden Trashed Dollar’s Status As Reserve Currency
“For nearly 80 years, since the end of the Second World War, the U.S. dollar has been the currency of the world for our entire lifetime,” Carlson, a co-founder of the Daily Caller and Daily Caller News Foundation, said. “There is virtually no place on the entire globe you could go that would turn down a $20 bill. Andrew Jackson’s face beside the famous seal of U.S. treasury was probably America’s best-known export.” Russia invaded Ukraine Feb. 24, launching a massive attack across the latter country, prompting Biden to impose sweeping sanctions on Russia that included cutting Russia off from the United States financial system. “It was the West’s reaction to the Russian invasion that seemed ominous. Policymakers in the U.S. went insane. Joe Biden, helped by his Republican allies in the Senate, appeared to be determined not to simply topple the Russian government and regime change, but to blow up the post-war economic order that had served the U.S. so generously for so long,”

Jacobs: Even His Admin Admits ‘Bidenflation’ Is Bankrupting Social Security
In its budget last month, the White House claimed that “the Administration is committed to protecting and strengthening Social Security.” But the recently released annual report from that program’s trustees portrays a different story. The report demonstrates how the slower economic growth and higher inflation of the Biden years have undermined Social Security’s foundation and accelerated its insolvency. If ever a document illustrated the failures of the Biden administration’s economic policies, and how those failures will harm seniors, this report does it. The annual report, compiled by the Social Security actuary and approved by the program’s trustees — all of them appointed by Biden — projected that insolvency for the retirement trust fund would occur in 2033, one year earlier than estimated in last year’s report. The biggest cause for that change? A lowering of estimates for future GDP and productivity growth “by about three percent by 2026 and for all years thereafter.”
Judge Glock: The Loophole That Sank Dodd–Frank
When President Barack Obama signed the Dodd–Frank Act in 2010, he claimed that it would “put a stop to taxpayer bailouts once and for all” and would “make clear that no firm is somehow protected because it is ‘too big to fail.’” Vice President Joe Biden said that Dodd-Frank ended the ability of banks to “take massive risks with the knowledge that [a] taxpayer bailout is around the corner when they fail.” Yet the Dodd-Frank Act retained a loophole that allowed the government to support failing banks. With the bailout of depositors at the Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank, and with the use of taxpayer funds to facilitate their sale to other banks, we now know that selective bailouts will continue. Congress must go back to the drawing board and, once and for all, end the ability of regulators to rescue their most influential charges. Congress has tried many times to limit bailouts, but it always provided loopholes that made them inevitable.

Watts: Malice in Wonderland
In America’s woke Wonderland, astonishing things transpire and, like Alice, we are left rubbing our eyes. The Mad Hatters of the Left tell us men can become women simply by saying so, and vice versa, and that human beings come packaged in a variety of gender identities: transgender, genderqueer, gender-fluid, gender nonconforming, agender, gendervoid, omnigender, pangender, and countless permutations. On racial matters, they proclaim that William Shakespeare is a primary architect of “whiteness” in an oppressive Western tradition and that mathematics is a racist reflection of “white supremacy culture” because its demand for correct answers reinforces the idea of perfectionism (that students shouldn’t make mistakes) and paternalism (teachers or other experts can and should correct mistakes). To regular folks, these head-scratching positions turn everything in American society upside down. They seem to defy not only reason but reality itself. Where has this progressive Wonderland, with its fantastic formulations and bizarre claims, come from, and what fuels it? Certainly not from the hard-nosed trade union tradition of the Democratic Party nor the egalitarian, equal-rights tradition that brought the women’s vote and the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Nor from Marxism, though conservatives blame it, too. Instead, true to the dictum that “politics lie downstream from culture,” it stems from two bodies of thought dominating progressive political circles over the last few decades: . . .

Simonson: Biden Wants the Public To Think He’s Cracking Down on the Border. Critics Aren’t Buying It.
Biden pivots to the center on immigration ahead of 2024 election. […] But virtually all of Biden’s attempts to pivot to the center on the border, which is still seeing a historically high number crossings, are too little too late and meant to grab headlines rather than solve the problem, critics say. Working with allies to accept more migrants or creating a new asylum application process may prompt media commentary about Biden’s attempt at triangulation in the lead-up to 2024, those critics allege, but do nothing to change the fact that millions of Latin Americans believe they are welcome to start new lives in the United States.
[…] Many of these policy changes are happening as Biden charges ahead, despite bipartisan criticism, with his plan for a May repeal of Title 42, a pandemic-era rule that gives authorities the power to turn away anyone on the southern border who may constitute a public health risk. As a compromise, Biden implemented a new rule in February that following Title 42’s termination bars migrants who first passed through another country from entering the United States. Left-wing activists, such as those at Human Rights Watch, blasted the proposal as “deadly” and reminiscent of Trump-era policies.
Brown: Fatal Failure of Government Just Cost the Biden Admin $145 Million
On Wednesday, the Department of Justice announced that it had reached a $144.5 million civil settlement in principle for the deadly 2017 assault on First Baptist Church in Sutherland Springs, Texas, that saw the assailant murder 26 worshippers and injure 22 more. […] “Plaintiffs’ claims alleged that the Air Force was negligent when it failed to transmit to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) information about the shooter that would have prevented him from purchasing guns from a federally licensed firearms dealer,” the DOJ explained. “A federal district court in Texas concluded that the United States was liable for damages caused by the shooting,” leading to the tentative settlement that will resolve the pending appeals. So, it was a failure of government that — despite the Biden administration demanding more laws and restrictions on firearms . . .
Anderson: Hola, Homosaurus: Biden Admin Shells Out Six Figures To Translate Gay Dictionary Into Spanish
Project includes definitions for terms such as ‘anal fisting’ and ‘jizz’ […] President Joe Biden’s National Endowment for the Humanities in January announced the $350,000 grant, which will see the University of Washington create a “Spanish-language version of the Homosaurus.” The dictionary, which features a dinosaur standing under a rainbow as its logo, defines hundreds of terms and phrases “relating to bisexuality, trans, gender, and intersex concepts,” according to its website. Examples include “anal fisting,” which the Homosaurus defines as the “sexual practice of inserting a fist into an anus,” “jizz,” which it calls the “slang term for semen; primarily used in the United States,” and “Indigiqueer,” a “term used to describe the identity of people who are both Indigenous and queer and view those identities as inherently related and interconnected.”
THE DEMOCRAT PARTY MARXIST PLAYBOOK: DESTROY THE TRADITIONAL FAMILY
Qualls: Children, not parents, are the ‘only authority’ on gender identity, DFL rep’s book says
A sitting member of the Minnesota House of Representatives published a self-help book for Christian teens who are questioning their sexuality. Rep. Leigh Finke, DFL-St. Paul, a first-term legislator who is transgender and identifies as a woman, released a book in 2020 entitled, “Queerfully and Wonderfully Made: A Guide for LGBTQ+ Christian Teens.” “Queerfully and Wonderfully Made” contains almost no references to prayer and encourages teens to “limit contact” with adults who do not affirm their choices, including parents. “Please, if your parents are unsupportive, remember this: You are a separate human person from your parents (crazy, right?!). They don’t know you like you do; they don’t get to decide who you are,” the book says. “God decided that, you have accepted it, and if they are going to be part of your future, they’ll have to accept it too.” […] Throughout the book, Finke attempts to use Bible verses to validate the queer lifestyle. The title itself is a play on Psalm 139, which states: “I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.”

Transgender activist and social media star Dylan Mulvaney has garnered criticism for his several brand deals featuring elements of his purported transition into girlhood. Mulvaney, a man who identifies as a woman, has acquired millions of followers on TikTok over the past several months. […] Mulvaney, a former actor who held roles in various Broadway musicals, has been especially criticized for his marketing deals with companies such as makeup brand Ulta Beauty and fashion house Kate Spade, both of which prompted accusations that he was insulting women and provoked ire among the companies’ consumer bases.
[…] Beyond corporate entities, Mulvaney has even achieved support from senior government officials. President Joe Biden hosted a discussion with Mulvaney in the White House last year about “gender-affirming healthcare.”
DEMOCRAT PARTY MARXIST PLAYBOOK: ANTI POLICE ANTI VICTIM PRO CRIMINAL
Simonson: Biden Judge Released Man Accused of D.C. Hotel Murder From Jail in December
A couple months after George Sydnor Jr. was arrested in October for armed robbery, Biden appointee Sean Staples, a D.C. superior court judge, took over his case and released him. Sydnor subsequently skipped his arraignment hearing and was issued a warrant for his arrest. Staples’s ruling came just two weeks after a different judge had denied Sydnor bail, citing his criminal history. Since 2000, Sydnor has been convicted of several felonies and misdemeanors including domestic violence, armed robbery, and rape, according to a Washington Free Beacon review of court records. Just four months after his release, Sydnor was arrested covered in blood at the scene of the slaying of Christy Bautista, 31, on April 1 and charged with first degree murder. Authorities say Sydnor broke in and stabbed Bautista at least 33 times with a kitchen knife. Biden nominated Staples in January 2021, and the Senate confirmed his appointment the following month. Thirty-eight Republicans voted against his confirmation.

Democrat Robert F. Kennedy Jr., an anti-vaccine activist and scion of one of the country’s most famous political families, is running for president. Kennedy filed a statement of candidacy Wednesday with the Federal Election Commission. The 69-year-old’s campaign to challenge incumbent President Joe Biden for the Democratic nomination is a long shot. Self-help author Marianne Williamson is also running in the Democratic race […] Kennedy, a nephew of President John F. Kennedy and the son of his slain brother Robert F. Kennedy, was once a bestselling author and environmental lawyerwho worked on issues such as clean water. But more than 15 years ago, he became fixated on a belief that vaccines are not safe. He emerged as one of the leading voices in the anti-vaccine movement, and his work has been described by public health experts and even members of his own family as misleading and dangerous.

The volunteers set their locations to different places in Wisconsin, but mainly in Democrat-heavy cities such as Milwaukee, Green Bay, and Madison, according to local media reports. Kristi Johnston, national press secretary for NextGen America detailed how Hinge “has a setup where you’re given a certain amount of likes per day” and “also on the other end, other matches are also swiping right or left.” […] According to NPR, the online dating tactic is a better way of approaching young voters than sending campaign texts or cold calling, efforts which can be easily ignored.

Burghardt & Neas: Navy Secretary Violates Due Process in Valor Award for Deserving Vietnam Hero
ergeant Josef Burghardt lay motionless on the ground at a pagoda in Hue City, Vietnam. It was the 1968 Tet Offensive, and the Marine was on his second tour in Nam, assigned to Alpha Company. Fewer than 100 Marines were dispatched from Phu Bai on January 31, 1968, and awaiting them were 8,000 North Vietnam Army regulars. The Battle of Hue was the longest continuous battle, and one of the most pivotal conflicts, of the Vietnam War. Half of Burghardt’s Marine company was dead or wounded by the time they reached Hue. Sergeant Burghardt survived but sustained a neck wound and was medevaced from the Hue City Stadium to the U.S.S. Repose. He would remain a quadriplegic for the rest of his life and die from complications of bladder and colon cancer on December 18, 2018, also relating to his service in Vietnam. Sgt. Burghardt received a Bronze Star with Combat V for heroic actions he performed in the heat of that fateful battle on February 8, 1968. Fifty-three years later, Medal of Honor recipient Sergeant Major John Canley submitted a valor award packet which included a recommended upgrade from Burghardt’s Bronze Star to a Silver Star—the third-highest combat award the United States bestows for valorous conduct—based on additional eyewitness statements of valor which occurred on February 6, 9, and 21 of 1968 during the intense peril of the urban and hyperviolent Battle of Hue. But the Secretary of the Navy instead determined that Burghardt deserved no valor award at all.
