CNN once again exposed that it is in fact an activist organization masquerading as a news outlet with a sappy piece on the “climate crisis.” On April 22‚ CNN celebrated “Earth Day” with an editorial piece from chief climate correspondent Bill Weir. The piece is formatted as a letter to Weir’s four-year-old son. Within the first sentence‚ Weir’s language quickly devolves into hysterics about mass extinctions and the usual doomsday predictions. For some context‚ Weir has a history as a natural observer‚ particularly of waterfowl. He used this critical expertise at then-President Barack Obama’s Second Inauguration‚ an event so momentous and ponderous that even the seagulls were “awed” according to Weir as if in the presence of a Saint Francis or the Infant Christ.   “This is your fourth Earth Day‚ and so much has happened in your little lifespan that what started as an annual record of anger and regret has grown into a book full of hopeful solutions‚” Weir began in his letter‚ in what sounds like an excerpt from a Greta Thunberg speech.  The exaggeration continued.  “There are still dark days to be sure‚ and since you love animals so much‚ I can’t bring myself to explain just how many of your favorites are on extinction’s brink‚” Weir said‚ persisting in his overblown tirade.  But not to worry‚ Weir found a way to deal with the lingering dread of a world still chock full of plastic straws and gas-powered stoves: Mister Rogers.     “When disasters strike‚ I remember the advice of Mister Rogers‚ who taught me that every time there is a scary event on TV‚ ‘Look for the helpers. There are always helpers‚’” Weir said‚ dispelling the inevitable sense of helplessness and abject fear that has no doubt gripped the reader when they ponder the sheer cruelty of the rapacious Colombian cattle rancher. The rancher is a beast who hacks away at the sacred heart of Mother Earth in order to make a pittance to feed his starving family.  Weir went on to describe these heartless capitalists‚ exploiting the land to eat and take up Earth’s precious resources. He described the difficulty of local conservationists like Rosamira Guillen in getting the cooperation for conservation efforts from these villains.  “But to connect enough fragmented habitat for the gene pool to thrive‚ she would need land‚” Weir detailed. “And the cooperation of cattle ranchers who do not share her love for toy-sized primates.”  Guillen further expounded on the difficulty of dealing with such a rabble.  “‘In a country like Colombia‚ where there’s so many challenges‚ people don’t realize that if you screw up the forest we’re all going to be screwed‚’&;quot; she allegedly said‚ lamenting the ignorance of such people.  Despite such grimness and despicable evil‚ Weir ended with a message of hope for his son‚ cursed to be born in such a time of unremitting woe.  “Still‚ River‚ when days get dark‚ and I feel the need to look for helpers‚ I sometimes flash to the series of fortunate events that gave almost 1‚000 acres of forest to the titis – and I imagine all the spots that need similar love‚” Weir advised.  And in case this wasn’t enough incentive to put down that burger and go vegan‚ CNN also helpfully included an editorial note.  “Rolex’s Perpetual Planet Initiative has partnered with CNN to drive awareness and education around key sustainability issues and inspire positive action‚” the note informed.

Yet another Soros-funded group just got caught trying to drive a wedge into the American-Israeli alliance‚ but The New York Times didn’t find any space to mention it in a news report.  In an April 20 article‚ The New York Times covered potential U.S. State Department sanctions on the Israel Defense Forces’s Netzah Yehuda Battalion. In a post on X the next day‚ research institute NGO Monitor addressed crucial information ignored by The Times‚ blaming these possible sanctions on a “coordinated campaign” by the Soros-funded program Democracy for the Arab World Now founded by murdered Washington Post journalist and former Muslim Brotherhood member Jamal Khashoggi. DAWN Executive Director Sarah Leah Whitson boasted that the program had worked hard to bring these sanctions about in a post on X. She also went after Secretary of State Antony Blinken for not acting sooner‚ saying that her organization “Submitted Leahy sanctions requests for 2 of the Israeli units that ⁦@SecBlinken has putzed and punted on.” Key employees of this organization have celebrated the decision on Al Jazeera and during an X space.  In a post on the program’s Instagram account‚ Democracy for the Arab World Now pushed for Secretary Blinken to “Sanction Israeli security forces implicated in gross violations of human rights‚ including extrajudicial killings‚ enforced disappearance‚ torture‚ and rape‚ under the Leahy Law amendments to the Foreign Assistance Act.” According to online records reviewed by MRC Business‚ Soros gave $525‚000 to Democracy for the Arab World Now between 2020 and 2022‚ the year it was founded. Democracy for the Arab World Now is a program of the Dawn Foundation‚ which Soros gave $275‚000 to in 2021. Furthermore‚ in their frequently asked questions section‚ Democracy for the Arab World Now tells users who wish to donate anonymously‚ “You can donate to the MENA Now Fund of the Tides Foundation‚ which will then transfer the donation to DAWN without revealing your identity.” According to the Open Society Foundations’ website‚ Soros has given at least $15‚013‚960 to the Tides Foundation and $14 million to the Tides Center from 2016 to 2022. Additionally‚ Soros gave over  $34 million to Tides Advocacy from 2017 to 2022. The Times didn’t mention Democracy in the Arab World Now‚ the Dawn Foundation or Soros’ contributions to either organization. This is particularly astonishing as The Times specifically mentioned the law that the Soros-funded project was lobbying for the IDF to be sanctioned under. “The possible imposition of sanctions against the Netzah Yehuda and other battalions would come under the so-called 1997 Leahy Law‚ which bans foreign military units accused of human rights violations from receiving U.S. aid or training‚” The Times reported. This major omission occurred in the same paper that infamously‚ and without ironclad evidence‚ accused the IDF of bombing Al-Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza‚ killing hundreds. This ultimately led to The Times posting an apology note admitting that the paper relied too heavily on the terrorist group Hamas. After repeated MRC reports calling out The Times and NewsGuard’s ratings of the leftist rag‚ the biased website ratings firm NewsGuard dropped The Times’s perfect rating to 87.5 on account of this flub.  Conservatives are under attack. Contact The New York Times at 800-698-4637 and demand they report on Soros’s funding of anti-Israel causes.

A Republican senator spoke out against Chinese influence on a major social media platform. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) hailed House Republicans for passing a provision seeking to force TikTok’s infamous parent company‚ ByteDance‚ to divest its social media platform ownership. Speaking on Fox News’s Sunday Morning Futures‚ hosted by Maria Bartiromo‚ Cruz called the bill “very important” and “a major step forward” to protect Americans from Chinese propaganda and potential espionage.  “I have deep‚ deep concerns about TikTok‚ controlled by the Chinese communist government‚” Cruz told Bartiromo‚ voicing his support for the TikTok ultimatum bill.  The Texas senator accused the Chinese communist government of exploiting TikTok for the “surveillance and espionage of American citizens.”  Expanding on his concerns‚ Cruz added: “They use it right now‚ aggressively‚ to push propaganda‚ anti-America propaganda‚ to our young people.” Flashback&;#33; WATCH: Sen. Ted Cruz Blasts TikTok as Communist Chinese Gov’t ‘Espionage’ Tool Cruz’s comments came a day after the Republican-led House of Representatives passed a massive $95 billion foreign aid package. The package includes a provision that gives the president the authority to compel ByteDance to divest its ownership of TikTok or else face a ban in the United States. The bill is set to be passed by the Senate on Tuesday. President Joe Biden is also expected to sign the bill into law. The bill gives ByteDance 270 days to sell its ownership. “This bill is a major step forward in that it forces China to divest of TikTok‚” Cruz added‚ echoing the sentiments of the Media Research Center‚ which came in support of the initial TikTok bill in March.

I support reining in TikTok. I support stopping the communist Chinese from influencing the United States subversively‚” Bozell added.  In response to the ultimatum‚ TikTok has deployed a multi-million dollar marketing campaign in a failed attempt to persuade lawmakers against backing the legislation.  Related: TikTok’s Last-Ditch Effort Amid US Ban: Recruiting Nuns‚ Veterans and Ranchers Conservatives are under attack.

PBS likes to pretend they have a conservative host on staff‚ but Firing Line’s Margaret Hoover is anything but. Between being married to Democratic congressional candidate John Avlon (also a former Republican for CNN) and her Monday comments on CNN News Central‚ Hoover proved it. And in those comments‚ she lashed out at one sitting Republican member of Congress and a famous YouTuber looking to unseat a Republican incumbent from the right. Joining CNN host Kate Bolduan to speak about the House passing massive foreign aid packages and the fallout‚ Hoover lashed out at Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene (R) over her threat to remove Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) from that position: HOOVER: Look‚ he didn't get it done to his point. And then to this question of whether Marjorie Taylor Greene is actually going to pull the trigger on this motion to vacate the threat. BOLDUAN: What’s the threat&;#63; What's the lingering threat do‚ do you think&;#63; HOOVER: Well look‚ she wants to have power and she's a chaos organizer. I mean‚ that's that's her end game. I mean‚ she just wanted to have power and be relevant. But Hoover’s criticisms went too far when she claimed that Greene was “not here for public the policy” but rather “she's being influenced by Russia.” Without evidence‚ she asserted‚ “perhaps there's an argument there.”     With the topic shifted to Republicans who opposed Greene‚ Bolduan wanted to talk about embattled Republican incumbent Tony Gonzalez of Texas who was forced into a runoff against popular gun YouTuber Brandan Herrera. Hoover parroted a lie that Herrera was a “neo-Nazi”: BOLDUAN: I'm wondering what the fight looks like. What's the “stand up and fight” look like from this‚ he [Rep. Tony Gonzalez (R-TX)] was suggesting kind of the more moderate Republicans who are serving in the House in an election year. What does that look like now in the six months to&;#63; HOOVER: Well look‚ for Tony Gonzales‚ he's got he has a primary – a runoff election coming in several weeks against a Trump-endorsed neo-Nazi. He might – Meanwhile‚ he’s in the largest segment of the border. I mean‚ the only fight he cares about is the border question. Not only was Herrera not endorsed by former President Trump‚ but one of the Gonzalez campaign talking points was that Herrera had mocked Trump’s youngest son Barron (which was false) in an apparent effort to get support from Trump voters. And while Hoover was trying to suggest a Trump endorsement of Herrera meant Gonzalez was ‘the good one’ in the race‚ Gonzalez was endorsed by Trump in the 2020 election. On Hoover’s accusations of Herrera being a “neo-Nazi‚” fact-checks of that claim came back as disinformation. That accusation stems from dishonest claims about his YouTube content. In addition to Gun Meme Reviews and gun safety videos‚ Herrera also makes videos that examine guns through a historical lens to talk about their manual of arms and what role their country of origin designed them for. As part of that series‚ he’s reviewed a lot of firearms from WWII (you can probably see where this is going) and showed images of soldiers using their weapons as B-roll footage. In addition to highlighting guns used by American‚ British‚ and Soviet forces‚ he’s covered guns used by the Germans. Essentially‚ Herrera has been accused of using “Nazi images” in his videos in the same context that would allow the accusation to be leveled against the History Channel. Hoover’s antics on CNN were another reason to defund PBS. The transcript is below.

A Florida couple recently met up with agents from the state lotto‚ apparently expecting to receive a massive payout‚ only to be arrested for alleged fraud instead.On March 1‚ 36-year-old Kira Enders walked into a Florida Lottery office in Pensacola and handed an employee there an allegedly winning 500X The Cash scratch-off ticket with a grand prize of $1 million. She even filled out the back portion of the ticket‚ which reportedly notes that any falsifications on the ticket can result in criminal prosecution.It appears that agents immediately suspected a problem because the ticket was later declared a &;quot;non-winner.&;quot; Whether the agency initially intended to investigate the problems with the ticket is unclear. However‚ when Enders called less than a week later for an update on her alleged winnings‚ she likely forced the agency's hand.Enders was invited to meet with a lotto special agent on March 11. She and her 32-year-old boyfriend‚ Dakota Jones‚ then drove to the designated meeting location. Rather than walk out with a hefty check‚ the two were quickly separated and interrogated about the ticket.Apparently‚ the winning ticket was actually two separate tickets that had been taped together and then laminated. Escambia Sheriff Chip Simmons indicated the &;quot;two tickets&;quot; had been put together &;quot;crudely&;quot; to try and create &;quot;a million-dollar winner.&;quot;It seems that Enders and Jones also gave drastically different explanations for the ticket pastiche. According to reports‚ Enders initially told police she couldn't remember where she purchased the ticket. She then must have had a moment of clarity because she later stated she bought it at a Winn-Dixie but that it had fallen out of her car in the rain and tore in two when it became wet.She explained that she taped the two pieces together to rectify the problem‚ not to deceive anyone‚ the affidavit indicated.She then allegedly expressed bewilderment when the serial numbers on different sides of the ticket didn't match. &;quot;What‚ they don't go together&;#63;&;quot; she allegedly stated. She also called the revelation about the mismatched serial numbers &;quot;insane&;quot; and that her &;quot;mind&;quot; was &;quot;blow[n]‚&;quot; the affidavit said. By contrast‚ Jones reportedly told investigators that the couple had randomly stumbled upon the winning ticket while walking down the street. He claimed that the ticket was already torn when they found it‚ but he advised his girlfriend not to tape it together or to submit the taped ticket to the lotto agency because it looked &;quot;jank‚&;quot; the affidavit said.Jones also allegedly insisted to investigators that he and Enders are &;quot;honest people&;quot; who had no intention of trying to pull a fast one on the lottery. &;quot;When they looked at the ticket‚ they thought it was legit‚&;quot; he indicated‚ according to the affidavitEnders and Jones have both been charged with three crimes: forgery/alteration of a lottery ticket with intent to defraud‚ passing a forged/altered state lottery ticket‚ and larceny-grand theft of $100‚000 or more. Enders was released on $20‚000 bail‚ and Jones was released on a bail of $17‚500. Both have a hearing scheduled for May 10.Like Blaze News&;#63; Bypass the censors‚ sign up for our newsletters‚ and get stories like this direct to your inbox. Sign up here&;#33;

A nonprofit organization allegedly misused federal taxpayer funds by purchasing airline tickets for illegal migrants‚ according to Border Report.United States Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-Texas) accused Catholic Charities of San Antonio of misusing funds granted to the organization through the FEMA Shelter and Services Program‚ which aims to reimburse nonprofits for the costs associated with housing migrants. Cuellar contends that the program‚ which he helped start‚ was never intended for air travel. Instead‚ the funds are meant to cover food‚ shelter‚ and other humanitarian costs.While the program does allocate “a set percentage” of funds to transportation‚ he noted that it was intended to provide migrants with free rides around the immediate area. He claimed that the transportation funds should be used only in emergency situations or within the city.The free plane tickets are attracting more migrants to the San Antonio area‚ Cuellar argued. He explained that when he spoke to Holding Institute‚ a Laredo-based nonprofit‚ representatives there stated migrants want to come to San Antonio in part “because they pay for transportation‚” he told Border Report.“And they say‚ ‘Queremos ir al San Pedro‚’ which is the street where they have this migrant center. And they call it the milk and honey place‚” he added. “When I first started this program‚ I said it would only be used for food and shelter‚ maybe transportation inside a city‚ but not to be sending them up there. The family or somebody should pay for that‚ not the taxpayer dollars.”United States Rep. Monica De La Cruz (R-Texas) called it a misappropriation of taxpayer dollars.“These tax dollars were not intended to be used to fly illegal immigrants all over their country to the destination of their choice‚” De La Cruz told Border Report. “They misused funds and sent these illegal immigrants where their preferred destination was with taxpayers' hard-earned money. This is just simply unacceptable.”Catholic Charities of San Antonio did not respond to Border Report’s request for comment.The organization is slated to receive another $10.8 million in funding through the program for its MRS Centro de Bienvenida temporary shelter‚ which provides humanitarian aid to migrants. According to the organization‚ the facility offers “safety‚ meals‚ hygiene kits‚ and blankets to those in need.”The nonprofit said the additional funding will be used to provide “newcomers” with “shelter‚ food‚ and clothing.”“In addition to meeting basic needs‚ Catholic Charities provides wrap-around services such as trauma-informed care‚ mental health counseling‚ legal assistance‚ and pastoral care to those who may have experienced trauma. Catholic Charities is committed to serving the most vulnerable among us with love‚ dignity‚ and respect‚” it stated.Like Blaze News&;#63; Bypass the censors‚ sign up for our newsletters‚ and get stories like this direct to your inbox.

Isra Hirsi‚ the 21-year-old daughter of Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.)‚ is not happy that her actions have consequences.Last week‚ Hirsi was one of more than 100 students arrested for setting up and participating in the &;quot;Gaza Solidarity Encampment&;quot; on Columbia University's campus. The anti-Israel protest remains ongoing‚ forcing Columbia to cancel in-person classes on Monday. The protest‚ moreover‚ is reportedly threatening the safety of Jewish students. On Sunday‚ Rabbi Elie Buechler‚ a prominent Jewish leader who works at the university‚ said police &;quot;cannot guarantee Jewish students’ safety in the face of extreme antisemitism and anarchy.&;quot;After her arrest‚ Hirsi revealed she had been suspended from Columbia University's Barnard College‚ a consequence that school leaders warned of the day before the arrest. — (@) In a new interview with Teen Vogue‚ Hirsi explained the panic that set in after she learned the consequences of her actions are real.&;quot;When I got to 1 Police Plaza‚ my roommates had brought me a bag of clothes because they knew that I was likely evicted. We were reading our email and it said we had 15 minutes to go get our s*** if we wanted it‚ and we'd have to go with a public safety escort‚&;quot; Hirsi said. &;quot;I was like‚ 'I'm not going to do that.' But I was a little bit frantic‚ like‚ 'Where am I going to sleep&;#63; Where am I gonna go&;#63;' And also all of my s*** is thrown in a random lot. It’s pretty horrible‚&;quot; she added.According to Hirsi‚ she hasn't been officially banned from campus or expelled‚ but she is suspended.&;quot;I don't know when I can go home‚ and I don't know if I ever will be able to‚&;quot; she said. &;quot;I haven't formally been evicted. I haven't been sent a 'move out' email‚ but they've just said that I can't get in‚ whatever that means. I have like four shirts‚ two pairs of pants.&;quot;&;quot;I cannot go to the dining hall. I sent them an email like‚ 'Hey‚ I rely on campus for my meals‚ I rely on my dining plan‚' and they were like‚ Oh‚ you can come pick up a prepackaged bag of food‚ a full 48 hours after I was suspended. There was no food support‚ no nothing‚&;quot; Hirsi explained of her consequences.Despite her comments‚ Hirsi is not homeless‚ and she is not going hungry. She is‚ after all‚ the daughter of a sitting congresswoman.That congresswoman‚ on the other hand‚ is &;quot;enormously proud&;quot; of her daughter for &;quot;pushing her school to stand against genocide.&;quot;Like Blaze News&;#63; Bypass the censors‚ sign up for our newsletters‚ and get stories like this direct to your inbox.

Last week‚ independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. sat down for an extensive interview with Glenn Beck. The two discussed a range of subjects‚ including the World Economic Forum (which Kennedy fittingly called the “billionaires boys' club”)‚ the complexities of NATO‚ the depravity of Big Pharma‚ and the ongoing conflicts between Russia/Ukraine and Israel/Gaza‚ among other issues. Glenn also pressed Kennedy on his thoughts regarding ESG‚ the Second Amendment‚ as well as the candidate's previous statements on climate change — one of which was aimed directly at Glenn. At a Live Earth concert back in 2007‚ RFK Jr. made the following statement: “So‚ I'm gonna tell you this‚ that the next time you see John Stossel or Glenn Beck or Rush Limbaugh or Sean Hannity — these flat-earthers‚ these corporate toadies lying to you‚ lying to the American public‚ and telling you that global warming doesn't exist — you send an email to their advertisers and tell them you're not going to buy their products anymore. This is treason and we need to start treating them now as traitors.” “You’re smart enough to know what that means constitutionally‚” Glenn said after reading the quote. “I wouldn’t say that today‚” was Kennedy’s humble response. “Part of the reason I wouldn’t say that is because I watched our country run over not only the First Amendment but all three arms of the First Amendment.” He then cited the way the government “closed a million churches for a year‚” “[rolled] over the rights of freedom of assembly‚” “shut down 3.3 million businesses with no due process‚ no just compensation‚” and “got rid of the Seventh Amendment” as the reasons he feels differently today. “The First Amendment was not written to protect speech that we all want to hear. It was for the speech nobody wants to hear‚” even if it’s “embarrassing‚” “appalling‚” or shares “ideas that are horrible ideas‚” he told Glenn. “I would never say anything like that today‚” he continued‚ referring to his 2007 statement. “My thinking on it has evolved‚ and I can see how dangerous statements like that are.” To hear Glenn’s response‚ watch the video below.
