Billionaire entrepreneur and Trump advisor Elon Musk dropped a bombshell this past weekend during a fiery 100-minute town hall in Green Bay, Wisconsin, where he campaigned for conservative judge Brad Schimel in the state’s upcoming Supreme Court election on Tuesday.

Joined by Antonio Gracias, a private equity titan and a key member of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) team tasked with rooting out waste in the federal government, Musk unveiled a shocking chart: a dramatic spike in Social Security Numbers issued to non-citizens, soaring from 270,000 in 2021 to a mind-blowing 2.1 million in 2024.

That’s almost 5 million non-citizens now embedded in the system—collecting benefits, draining taxpayer dollars, and, most alarmingly, infiltrating the voter rolls.

“This is a mind-blowing chart,” Musk declared, pointing to the data. “This wasn’t an accident. This was a massive, large-scale program under the Biden administration to import as many illegals as possible—ultimately to change the voting map of the United States, disenfranchise the American people, and lock in a permanent deep-blue, one-party state from which there’d be no escape.”

Gracias, founder of Valor Equity Partners and a self-described son of legal immigrants, echoed Musk’s outrage.

“We went to Social Security to find fraud, and we stumbled on this by accident,” he said.

“And this isn’t political, by the way. My parents are immigrants… My brother and sister all born in Spain. I’m pro-legal immigration. This is not political. This is about America and the future of America. And there are a lot of good people in the system that pointed this in this direction. I want to honor them right now. They’re working with the government today and took the risks to show us these numbers and tell us what’s going on.”

Gracias continued, “We found 1.3 million of them already on Medicaid as an example. On every benefit program we went through, we found groups from this particular group of people, 5.5 million people in those benefit programs. And then what was really, really disturbing us was why. We’re asking ourselves why. And so we actually just took a sample and looked at voter registration records, and we found people here registered to vote in this population.”

The evidence, according to Musk and Gracias, is undeniable. By sampling voter registration records, they uncovered non-citizens who not only registered but voted in American elections.

“We’ve referred them to prosecution at Homeland Security Investigations,” Gracias revealed. “That’s happening right now.”

Just three days following this stunning revelation, The Democrat Party, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, filed a lawsuit against President Trump to allow illegal aliens to (continue to) vote in US elections.

Of course, the lawsuit was filed in the US District Court in Washington DC – a sure win for Democrats no matter how crazy and lawless they are.

They want to open voting to the whole world!

These crooked politicians claim Trump is trampling the US Constitution by now allowing illegals to vote.

This really should surprise no one.

Next they will be suing Trump for preventing dead people to vote.

The lawsuit was filed by Marc Elias and the Elias Law Group.

Lawyers warned some of Trump’s demands in the order, including a proof-of-citizenship requirement for voter registration and new ballot deadline rules, may violate the U.S. Constitution, according to The Associated Press.

“We believe that this Executive Order is the farthest-reaching executive action taken in the history of the republic to Secure our Elections,” Trump said in a Truth Social post on March 25, the day he signed it, during an ambassador meeting in the Cabinet Room of the White House.

The order also asserts power that legal experts say the president doesn’t have over an independent agency. That agency, the U.S. Election Assistance Commission, sets voluntary voting system guidelines and maintains the federal voter registration form, the AP reports.

It’s hard to stomach the gleeful reports in the USAID-media openly celebrating the difficulties faced by the Trump team in getting Russians and Ukrainians to agree to a cease-fire and subsequent negotiations for a permanent peace settlement.

We’ve written here in TGP that the media mockingbirds were going to pivot from ‘peace talks are impossible and will never take place’ to ‘negotiations are taking too long’.

While the obstacles for a peace in Ukraine are very real, the wider détente between the two nuclear powers, US and Russia, is advancing – and that’s consequential progress.

Reports have arisen that Vladimir Putin’s special envoy Kirill Dmitriev is to visit Washington this week, to hold a meeting with Trump representative Steven Witkoff.

If confirmed, Dmitriev will be the first senior Russian official to visit Washington since the onset of the war in 2022.

Maybe.

The resistance to US–Russia dialogue is real—driven by entrenched interests and old narratives.

But what if improved relations are exactly what the world needs for lasting global security and peace ️?#Geopolitics #USRussia #Peace #GlobalSecurity https://t.co/U3ungjB21Z

— Kirill A. Dmitriev (@kadmitriev) April 1, 2025

Reuters reported:

“Kirill Dmitriev, the chief of Russia’s sovereign wealth fund, who was appointed by President Vladimir Putin as special investment and international economic envoy, will meet with U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff, one source said, speaking on condition of anonymity.

Another source said that Dmitriev will meet Witkoff on Wednesday.”

Witkoff and Dmitriev are to hold talks about ‘strengthening relations between the two countries’ as they seek to end the war in Ukraine.

The work to improve the currently limited diplomatic relations comes after recent telephone calls between the Trump and Putin – but of course the Reuters report has to focus on ‘the lack of progress’ on the ceasefire in Ukraine.

“But as Trump appears to be growing increasingly impatient with what he has suggested might be Moscow’s foot-dragging over a wider Ukraine peace deal and saying he was ‘pissed off’ with Putin, Dmitriev’s trip may also de-escalate some of the tensions.

As Dmitriev is still under U.S. sanctions, CNN reported that the Trump administration temporarily lifted the sanctions for his visit.”

Democrats have criticized President Trump’s tariffs, arguing that they lead to price increases that disadvantage American workers. While tariffs can contribute to higher prices, they also offer benefits to American workers.

Firstly, revenue generated from tariffs contributes to the government’s operating fund, potentially offsetting expenses that would otherwise be covered by income taxes. This additional revenue has opened discussions about tax relief measures, such as removing income tax from overtime pay or tips.

Moreover, tariffs serve to encourage domestic manufacturing and attract foreign direct investment (FDI).

Foreign companies aiming to maintain access to the U.S. market may choose to establish manufacturing facilities within the United States to circumvent import tariffs.

For instance, Hyundai Motor Group announced a $21 billion investment in U.S. operations, including a new $5.8 billion steel plant in Louisiana, to avoid potential tariffs and bolster its American manufacturing presence.

Similarly, Taiwanese chipmaker TSMC is set to invest $100 billion in a U.S.-based semiconductor plant.

Tariffs can reduce the need for subsidies by leveling the playing field for American producers competing against heavily subsidized foreign imports. A good example is agriculture.

The media criticized President Trump for placing a 25% tariff on Canadian food imports, claiming it would raise grocery prices and hurt American families. But the reality is more complex, and the tariffs make sense in context.

The United States is food-independent and typically a net exporter of agricultural products—it produces more food than it consumes and doesn’t rely on imports to feed its population.

Still, in 2023, the U.S. imported $40.5 billion worth of agricultural goods from Canada, about 20.6% of total agricultural imports. These imports aren’t driven by necessity but by factors like seasonality, economic efficiency, and consumer demand.

Some products—like fruits, vegetables, and certain animal goods—are simply cheaper to import due to Canada’s climate, harvest cycles, or subsidies. The two countries also have deeply integrated food supply chains, with items often crossing the border multiple times for processing.

While these imports provide variety and affordability, they also undermine American farmers—who already receive tens of billions in subsidies each year. In 2023 alone, agricultural subsidies totaled $10.97 billion.

Programs like the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) pay farmers to take land out of production for environmental reasons, but have been criticized for reducing the total food supply.

On top of that, the American Relief Act of 2025 added another $31 billion in aid to farmers and ranchers.

Democrats are fond of isolating facts when it suits them—especially when it paints President Trump’s policies in a negative light. When it comes to tariffs, they focus only on the short-term price increases and ignore the broader economic goals.

Yes, tariffs can raise prices on certain goods, but they also create jobs, generate government revenue, and reduce the need for taxes and subsidies.

Tariffs on agricultural imports—like those from Canada—help ensure American-grown food reaches consumers instead of being destroyed or left unharvested.

That means less waste, less need for subsidies, and more support for American workers and producers.

A perfect example of how the media twists Trump’s words is his comment on the 25% tariff imposed on imported automobiles and parts.

He was quoted as saying he didn’t care if prices went up, but the full transcript shows he meant that the benefits of higher prices—like supporting the U.S. automotive industry—outweigh the drawbacks.

Yes, imported cars may cost more, but that encourages consumers to buy American-made vehicles, which strengthens our industrial base, creates good-paying jobs for American workers, and reduces the need for government subsidies.

The U.S. government already provides substantial support to the automotive sector through subsidies, tax incentives, and low-interest loans.

Since 2000, Ford and General Motors have each received over $7 billion in federal subsidies.

Programs like the Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing (ATVM) Loan Program have issued billions—$5.9 billion to Ford and $1.6 billion to Nissan—to develop fuel-efficient vehicles.

Federal tax credits for electric vehicles (EVs), ranging from $2,500 to $7,500 per vehicle, totaled about $725 million in 2014 alone.

The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 expanded this support, and by 2024, more than $2 billion had been issued in point-of-sale EV tax rebates.

State and local governments add even more through tax breaks and incentives aimed at attracting and retaining automotive manufacturers.

While it’s hard to pin down an exact annual total, it’s clear the U.S. pours billions into sustaining and modernizing its automotive industry—an industry that tariffs could help support, reducing the need to transfer taxpayer money to automotive companies.

Furthermore, the revenue generated from these tariffs contributes to the government’s operating funds, potentially offsetting expenses that would otherwise be covered by income taxes.

This additional revenue opens discussions about tax relief measures, such as reducing income taxes or decreasing the need for subsidies in various industries.

In summary, while the immediate effect of tariffs includes price increases, the broader strategy aims to bolster domestic industries, create jobs, and strengthen the overall economy.

Evaluating these policies requires a comprehensive analysis that considers both short-term impacts and long-term benefits.

The EU Parliament has lifted the immunity of AfD foreign policy spokesman Petr Bystron because he shared a photo of Angela Merkel on Twitter in 2022.

The reason? Bizarre: since Merkel is seen raising her arm in the image, it’s being interpreted as a Nazi salute – but only because Bystron posted it.

Prosecutor: Waving is not a Nazi salute

This farce has a backstory: In 2022, during a protest against COVID-19 measures, Bystron waved to the crowd.

The public prosecutor immediately launched an investigation: “Nazi salute!”

In response, hundreds of AfD supporters filed complaints against Angela Merkel, who had been photographed waving in a similar manner. But in each case, the prosecutor ruled: “Not a Nazi salute, no investigation.”

Bystron used exactly that photo of Merkel in court to defend himself—successfully. The court ruled that not every raised right arm constitutes a Nazi salute. “Great!” Bystron thought. “Then using the Merkel photo should be no problem.”

Bystron meme: Merkel’s wave suddenly deemed unconstitutional

Far from it! Now, the prosecutor claims it is a Nazi salute after all – and has indicted Bystron for spreading unconstitutional symbols!

Strange? More than that. The charges came a full year after the image was posted on X.

The alleged violation of §86 of the German Criminal Code only came to the prosecutor’s attention once the EU election campaign began – with Bystron leading the AfD list alongside top candidate Krah. What a coincidence!

Trump: No more political justice

Absurd? Welcome to Germany’s version of “lawfare.” Bystron waves – Nazi salute. Merkel waves – not a Nazi salute. Bystron posts a photo of Merkel –

Nazi salute! You’d be hard-pressed to find a clearer case of political abuse of the justice system against the opposition in Germany.

Thankfully, Donald Trump is putting an end to these kinds of practices in the U.S. Let’s hope this wave reaches Germany soon. It’s badly needed.

A Boston judge has held a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent in contempt for executing his duty to detain an illegal immigrant during an ongoing trial.

On Thursday, March 27, 2025, ICE agents, ICE agent Brian Sullivan apprehended Wilson Martell-Lebron, a Dominican national illegally residing in the United States, as he exited the Boston Municipal Court.

Martell-Lebron, a Dominican national residing illegally in the country using fake identity, was on his second trial for charges related to falsifying information on a driver’s license application.

Despite the gravity of his alleged offenses, Boston’s lenient policies had allowed him to remain free until ICE agents, led by Agent Brian Sullivan, apprehended him outside the courthouse.

But instead of applause for upholding our borders, a Massachusetts state court judge—yet another cog in the radical left’s sanctuary machine—had the gall to hold an ICE agent in contempt.

Boston Municipal Court Judge Mark Summerville held Agent Sullivan in contempt, accusing him of violating Martell-Lebron’s so-called rights to due process and a fair trial.

“The finding of contempt is a consequence of Agent Sullivan’s intentional and egregious violations of the defendant’s rights,” Summerville said.

“This is a disturbing case,” Summerville added. “It’s a case of obstruction of justice. It’s a case of violating the defendant’s right to be present at trial and confront witnesses against him. Couldn’t be more serious.”

Summerville went so far as to dismiss the charges against Martell-Lebron, effectively rewarding illegal behavior and punishing those who seek to enforce the law.

WATCH:

Boston.com reported:

Judge Mark Summerville held ICE agent Brian Sullivan in contempt Monday for allegedly obstructing justice, the Globe reported. ICE Agent Sullivan, Steven Wells, and any other agent involved in the arrest were ordered Friday to appear for an evidentiary hearing, and a bench warrant was issued for Sullivan.

ICE alleges that Martell-Lebron is really named Juan Carlos Baez and is originally from the Dominican Republic. He allegedly entered the U.S. illegally in 2000, ICE said.

An ICE spokesperson confirmed that agents apprehended Martell-Lebron outside the court house on Thursday.

“Officers with ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Boston field office apprehended Juan Carlos Baez (aka Wilson Martell-Lebron), a 49-year-old, illegally present Dominican national with prior drug trafficking convictions, after he departed the Boston Municipal Court,” the spokesperson said.

Biden-appointed U.S. District Judge Araceli Martínez-Olguín has once again chosen open borders over American taxpayers, issuing a temporary restraining order late Tuesday to block the Trump administration’s commonsense move to defund legal representation for unaccompanied illegal alien minors.

At the heart of the controversy is a Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) decision—aligned with Trump-era priorities—to terminate contracts that funneled millions of dollars to left-wing immigration groups under the guise of helping “unaccompanied minors.”

In February 2025, President Trump signed an executive order directing federal agencies to identify and eliminate programs providing financial benefits to individuals without legal status. This order also sought to prevent federal funds from supporting “sanctuary” policies at state and local levels.

As a result, HHS and its Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR), issued a cancellation order to the Acacia Center for Justice, a non-profit organization based in Washington, D.C.

Last week, the Community Legal Services in East Palo Alto, Social Justice Collaborative, Amica Center for Immigrant Rights, Estrella del Paso, Florence Immigrant and Refugee Rights Project, Galveston-Houston Immigrant Representation Project, Immigrant Defenders Law Center, National Immigrant Justice Center, Northwest Immigrant Rights Project, Rocky Mountain Immigrant Advocacy Network, and Vermont Asylum Assistance Project sued the HHS.

These groups whined to the court that HHS’s decision to terminate their gravy train of federal funds would leave them unable to bankroll lawyers for unaccompanied migrant kids. Apparently, they think American taxpayers should foot the bill for every border-jumper’s day in court.

Judge Martinez-Olguin, a known far-left darling tapped by Biden in 2023, didn’t hesitate to flex her activist muscles.

In her 7-page order, she claimed the funding cut violates the William Wilberforce Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2008 (TVPRA)—a law twisted beyond recognition by the left to justify endless handouts.

She even had the gall to argue that stopping this boondoggle would cause “irreparable harm” to these nonprofits’ missions.

The judge even had the nerve to say this promotes “efficiency and fairness” in the immigration system. What it really promotes is chaos, rewarding those who flout our laws while mocking the Americans who play by the rules.

Worse yet, Judge Martínez-Olguín’s ruling grants relief not to individual migrants, but to a network of progressive organizations—some of which openly advocate for the abolition of ICE and the dismantling of U.S. borders.

The decision flies in the face of fiscal sanity and national sovereignty, as it undermines the Trump administration’s commitment to end government handouts for those who enter the country illegally.

The judge’s TRO, effective April 2, 2025, forces HHS to keep the spigot open until at least April 16, giving these radical nonprofits time to push for a permanent injunction.

Read the full ruling below:

It can be recalled that during Biden’s first year, the number of unaccompanied minors encountered at the border spiked, with over 120,000 reported in 2021 alone—an increase of roughly 800% compared to Trump’s final year (2020).

Reports indicate that HHS has struggled to keep track of many children after their release to sponsors.

Homeland Security Office of the Inspector General admits that over 320,000 unaccompanied migrant children were lost track of and “are considered at higher risk for trafficking, exploitation, or forced labor.”

291,000 of these missing children were never issued Notices to Appear or placed into removal proceedings. 32,000 children failed to appear on their court dates and are now missing.

Clarissa Rippee, a Contract Specialist working in the General Services Administration (GSA) blew the whistle and exposed a $347 million contract for transporting unaccompanied minors.

“My line in the sand moment was when I found out that GSA had awarded a contract to a company to transport unaccompanied minors,” shared current General Services Administration (GSA) Contract Specialist Clarissa Rippee, revealing shocking details about a $347 million contract awarded to the company responsible for transporting unaccompanied minors across the United States. “It felt like someone kicked me in the gut,” Rippee told James O’Keefe.
