Biden Judge Shocks, Dismisses Case Against NYC Mayor Eric Adams, Blasts DOJ
April 2, 2025
Eric Adams
A federal judge ended the case against New York City Mayor Eric Adams on Wednesday.
US District Judge Dale Ho, a Biden appointee, sent shockwaves after he dropped the DOJ’s case against Eric Adams.
The DOJ wanted to drop the federal charges against Adams without prejudice which means they could refile them in the future. Judge Ho dismissed the case without prejudice and ended the case permanently.
Judge Ho also blasted Trump’s DOJ officials and accused them of a quid pro quo.
“Everything here smacks of a bargain: dismissal of the Indictment in exchange for immigration policy concessions,” judge Ho wrote in his order.
“Taking a step back from the particulars of this case, DOJ’s immigration enforcement rationale is both unprecedented and breathtaking in its sweep,” the judge wrote, according to NBC News.
“DOJ cites no examples, and the Court is unable to find any, of the government dismissing charges against an elected official because doing so would enable the official to facilitate federal policy goals,” he said.
Adams was recently indicted on charges including wire fraud, bribery and conspiracy out of the Southern District of New York, becoming the first sitting New York City mayor to face criminal prosecution.
According to federal prosecutors, Adams accepted $10 million in illegal “straw” campaign contributions and bribes from foreign countries, including Turkey, Israel, China, Qatar, South Korea, and Uzbekistan, going back nearly a decade.
“For nearly a decade, Adams sought and accepted improper valuable benefits, such as luxury international travel, including from wealthy foreign businesspeople and at least one Turkish government official seeking to gain influence over him,” the indictment reads.
In February, the Trump Justice Department moved to drop federal charges against New York City Mayor Eric Adams.
President Trump’s then-Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove instructed federal prosecutors in New York to drop the case.
Acting US Attorney for the SDNY Danielle Sassoon abruptly resigned just a few days after she was ordered to drop charges against NYC Mayor Eric Adams.
President Trump GOES OFF as Four Senate Republicans Reportedly Plan to Defy Him and Vote for Democrat Measure to Sabotage His Canadian Tariff Policy

President Trump is livid after learning that four Senate Republicans are reportedly prepared to vote to sabotage his tariff policy on Canada.
As Fox News reported, leftist Senator Tim Kaine (D-VA) has sponsored a resolution joint resolution that would terminate the national emergency Trump declared regarding illicit drugs and Canada. Trump has argued tariffs are necessary not just to curb the drug flow but also to rebalance an unfair trading relationship between the two countries.
The Senate is scheduled to vote on Kaine’s resolution this afternoon. While passage would not mean the tariffs evaporate, considering the House is unlikely to ever vote on the measure, voting against Canadian tariffs would hand the Democrats a powerful talking point and humiliate Trump in the process.
To add insult to injury, the vote is taking place on what Trump has declared “Liberation Day,” where he is set to unleash new reciprocal tariffs to bring back American jobs.
Only four GOPers need to join all 47 Democrats in backing Kaine for the resolution to win approval in the Senate. Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, Rand Paul of Kentucky, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, and Susan Collins of Maine appear ready to defy Trump.
Paul is a co-sponsor of Kaine’s resolution, while Murkowski told Politico she will vote for it. The outlet reports Collins is “very likely” to join them while McConnell has repeatedly criticized Trump’s tariffs.
In a Truth Social post this morning, Trump demanded the four Republicans back off and hold Canada accountable for allowing fentanyl to flow freely into America.
“Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, Susan Collins of Maine, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, and Rand Paul, also of Kentucky, will hopefully get on the Republican bandwagon, for a change, and fight the Democrats wild and flagrant push to not penalize Canada for the sale, into our Country, of large amounts of Fentanyl, by Tariffing the value of this horrible and deadly drug in order to make it more costly to distribute and buy,” Trump wrote.
Trump added that by flirting with joining the left, the four GOPers are playing with the lives of ordinary Americans and right into the hands of the Democratic Party. He further vowed to veto the measure if it ever reached his desk.
“They are playing with the lives of the American people, and right into the hands of the Radical Left Democrats and Drug Cartels,” he stated. “The Senate Bill is just a ploy of the Dems to show and expose the weakness of certain Republicans, namely these four, in that it is not going anywhere because the House will never approve it and I, as your President, will never sign it.”
Trump closed his rant by accusing the Republicans of Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) and being disloyal to him, the Republican Party, and Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD).
“Why are they allowing Fentanyl to pour into our Country unchecked, and without penalty?” Trump wondered. “What is wrong with them, other than suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome, commonly known as TDS?”
Who can want this to happen to our beautiful families, and why? To the people of the Great States of Kentucky, Alaska, and Maine, please contact these Senators and get them to FINALLY adhere to Republican Values and Ideals. They have been extremely difficult to deal with and, unbelievably, disloyal to hardworking Majority Leader John Thune and the Republican Party itself. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
Attributing His Death to the Use of Remdesivir to Treat COVID-19, a Veteran’s Spouse Continues to Search for Answers

After discovering whistleblower data about the deaths of 19 service members who were treated with remdesivir for COVID-19 at Eglin Air Force Base, Sharon Burns reached out to this author to share her husband’s story.
In a previous report by The Gateway Pundit, it was revealed that across the Department of Defense (DoD) that 601 of 941 patients who died between March 2020 and March 2024 were treated with remdesivir. The data set below captures service members, retirees, and dependents, including those from Eglin AFB.

Mrs. Burns brought her husband, a retired Air Force veteran, to Eglin AFB hospital on August 3, 2020, with symptoms of COVID-19.
Sadly, on August 11, 2020, Mrs. Burns lost her beloved husband of 44 years. In the years following Michael’s death, Mrs. Burns admitted that she was “living in a fog,” but now has the strength to go public with her husband’s story.
She and her husband suspected COVID-19 near the end of July 2020, she told The Gateway Pundit. With Mr. Burns’ symptoms getting worse, she drove him to the emergency room about five days later.
“While I parked our car, he walked in under his own power—but when I got to the door, they wouldn’t let me in,” she said.
After waiting outside for nearly three hours, she finally received a phone call to inform her that Mr. Burns was being admitted to the hospital.
“This day was the last time I ever saw him,” she shared.
Mrs. Burns was only able to maintain contact with her husband for the four days following his admission into the hospital, and according to him, his health improved during this time.
“They were watching him for ‘the critical days’ of five through nine,” she was told. “But on the sixth day, things were starting to look worse, [particularly with his breathing].”
“At around 7 o’clock in the morning of the ninth day, I received a phone call, informing me that my husband was going to die that day,” Mrs. Burns said. She was told that her husband was going to suffer from “a major heart attack” and that he had also agreed to a “do not resuscitate” or DNR order, as well as comfort care.
Later that same afternoon, she was informed that her 67-year-old husband, who was previously “in decent health,” passed away from respiratory failure.
“I was angry that he was alone,” she shared. “No patient should ever be alone without support or an advocate.” She likens the circumstance to an “inhumane solitary confinement.”
With regard to her husband’s death, it has been clearly determined that the use of remdesivir can result in many potential organ-based adverse effects, including respiratory failure, pneumonia, and pneumothorax.
“I started to learn about a COVID standard of care in the hospitals that was not the regular standard of care [for other respiratory illnesses],” Mrs. Burns explained, as her husband battled each of these adverse effects.
“Records show [Mr. Burns] received the standard 200 mg remdesivir on admittance, followed by 100 mg every day for eight days,” she said. Interestingly, she learned through a doctor unaffiliated with Eglin AFB that “my husband appears to have died from an untreated viral pneumonia and that a lot of information is missing from his medical records.”
Could Remdesivir’s use in the hospital’s COVID-19 treatment protocol be the cause of death for Mrs. Burns’ husband? According to her, the answer is yes. She believes the drug, with its history of lethality, contributed to her husband’s death.
Mrs. Burns pointed out that, to this day, Eglin AFB has provided very little about her husband’s medical records. She said, “My husband’s Medicine Administration Record (MAR) and the nurse’s intervention notes are missing.”
Because her husband would have been receiving a drug approved for emergency use only at the time (prior to October 22, 2020), there should have also been a signed informed consent form. Such a form has not been made available.
Mrs. Burns also questions whether there should be a signed DNR, or a record of a verbal agreement. And finally, she added, “Tricare cannot even find my husband’s billing records, which they usually keep for ten years.”
Why is Eglin AFB failing to help Mrs. Burns find the truth about her husband’s death? Did they fail to keep accurate records? Or are they hiding something, perhaps?
To learn more about service members and veterans who were treated with remdesivir and passed away, the author submitted Freedom of Information Act requests to the Department of Defense (DoD) and Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) on January 14, 2025.
These were the requested records:
The total number of service members/veterans diagnosed and treated for COVID-19 in 2020 and 2021.
Of those, the number who were treated with remdesivir.
The total number of service members/veterans who died from COVID-19 in 2020 and in 2021.
Of those service members/veterans who died, the number who were treated with remdesivir.
On March 6, the VA responded by citing two exemptions to justify withholding the information. In summary, it was suggested that personally identifiable information was requested and that the information requested does not outweigh the privacy interest of the case.
The FOIA request sent to DoD had an expected completion date of March 25, 2025, but the current status suggests it has only been “assigned for processing.”
Before January 6th, I had multiple scholarships to top law schools, including Washington and Lee and the University of Alabama. Unfortunately, my decision to protest at the Capitol threw a tiny, 3-year wrench in those plans – with plenty of torture thrown in for good measure.
When I first attended the Stop the Steal Rally, I was a 28-year-old political science major. I took the LSAT (Law School Admission Test) 10 days after the events at the Capitol and scored in the 92nd percentile. This high score helped me receive merit scholarships to these prestigious universities. Due to being arrested for January 6th, I simply never showed up for class.
Now, I’m turning 33 in a few months. I’m not at all the same person I was before this ordeal. For a victimless fence push, I served over 32 months in federal custody. I witnessed fights, abuse, and endured nightmare conditions. But most importantly, I found the love of a merciful God – by finding Christ in jail.
Thank you for the pardon, Mr. President!
It has always been my dream to become an attorney. While in jail, I witnessed the terrible representation so many defendants are forced to endure. My first attorney would not even return my calls. He didn’t answer a single phone call from jail – and I must have called over 40 times.
Seeing these attorneys’ poor performances, my desire to practice law burns brighter than ever. I worked my entire life to become a lawyer, and I know I would make a great one – and to get back into law school would be the sweetest redemption.
Telling my story at the Western Wake Republican Club in NC
My goal is to apply to as many schools as possible. However, it can cost upwards of $100 to apply to each law school. I need your help to reclaim my life. Each donation could pay for the application that changed my life.
Thank you so much for all the help you’ve given me. You have completely changed my life for the better – for your prayers, your donations, and your support. I am forever grateful and humbled.
As Crew Dragon Spacecraft Orbits Earth’s Polar Regions, Fram2 Astronauts Capture Breathtaking Images of the Arctic and Antarctica (VIDEOS)
April 2, 2025
Down here on Earth, tech billionaire and DOGE head Elon Musk has to bear the brunt of Liberal-Globalist hatred for his support for Donald J. Trump and his willingness to wade in the DC ‘swamp’ to cut waste and corruption.
But up there in space, Musk keeps making history.
This time, SpaceX’s Dragon Spacecraft is crewed by a privately-funded mission that, for the first time, has astronauts orbiting planet earth over the poles, rather than around the equatorial regions.
“SpaceX is sharing the first look at the vast expanse of ice layering Earth’s poles after launching the private Fram2 mission, the first human spaceflight to polar orbit.
A stunning video taken from SpaceX’s Dragon capsule by the ‘Framonauts’ shows their view from the spacecraft orbiting Earth at a 90-degree inclination over the north and south poles. The private mission, led by Mission Commander Chun Wang, of Malta, is named after the original Fram ship that first reached the Earth’s polar regions in the 1800s. Fram also means ‘forward’ in Norwegian.
[…] While Fram2 is among the nearly 630 missions to orbit Earth, it’s the first to take the journey this way, orbiting from pole to pole versus missions that orbit near the equator. Even astronauts on the International Space Station have not seen the views the ‘Framonauts’ are experiencing. This orbit required a unique southern launch trajectory flying over Florida and Cuba.”
Watch: Dragon has separated from rocket Falcon 9’s second stage.
“A bitcoin investor who bought a SpaceX flight for himself and three polar explorers blasted off Monday night on the first rocket ride to carry people over the North and South poles.
Chun Wang, a Chinese-born entrepreneur, hurtled into orbit from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center. SpaceX’s Falcon rocket steered southward over the Atlantic, putting the space tourists on a path never flown before in 64 years of human spaceflight.”
“A polar orbit is ideal for climate and Earth-mapping satellites as well as spy satellites. That’s because a spacecraft can observe the entire world each day, circling Earth from pole to pole as it rotates below.
[…] Wang pitched the idea of a polar flight to SpaceX in 2023, two years after U.S. tech entrepreneur Jared Isaacman made the first of two chartered flights with Musk’s company. Isaacman is now in the running for NASA’s top job.”
