That is a lovely stack of pancakes. 

Alas, I have a Monday-morning fire at work. No news until things get resolved.

Far-right leader Marine Le Pen banned from 2027 presidential race, throwing French politics into disarray

French far-right figurehead Marine Le Pen has been banned from running for political office for five years after being found guilty of embezzling European Union funds, in a politically explosive ruling that has shattered her hopes of winning the presidency in 2027.

Smells of desperation to avoid losing to the right.

Norway's Jews hide their identity to receive medical care

A deeply concerning trend has emerged in Norway where Jewish community members fear seeking medical care due to growing anti-Israel sentiment among healthcare workers. In an unprecedented letter to health authorities, Jewish leaders warn that community members are hiding their identities in medical settings – a situation not experienced "since World War II."

El Gato Malo has an article on the power moves the EU elite are making against populist movements and people standing up for their rights. Said elites really don't want anyone else to have power.

Is the fire out, spreading and you've given up.... or under control?

The EU is scared to death of losing power. The left here is panic mode over Trump.

And what do frightened people do when they lose power?

Oh, I don't know camps and mass murder seem to be the typical reaction.

Driver facing 17th deportation moments after release from jail for deadly Colorado crash

47-year-old Ignacio Cruz-Mendoza served one year in jail for a June 2024 crash on Highway 285 outside of Conifer, Colorado that left one person dead. Cruz-Mendoza was hauling metal pipes at the time of the crash. He served one year in jail for four misdemeanor charges: one count of careless driving resulting in death, and three counts of careless driving resulting in injury. 

Cruz-Mendoza was released at about 8:30 a.m. on Sunday, March 30th, where he was immediately detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents. Denver 7 reports that he was in the country illegally at the time of the crash, and had been removed from the country 12 times prior to the wreck. He has also voluntarily left the United States and returned to Mexico four times, all since 2002. 

How the hell are illegals getting CDLs?

To be honest? I have to think that is happening under the table. I'm having a hard time imagining an illegal at the DMV getting a license when he can't show proof of birth in the US or a green card.

Quick check 17 states issue a drivers' license to illegals.

Most of those have motor voter.

CDL is Federally regulated for interstate drivers. Intrastate driving is less so, and there are farm exemptions.

There are requirements for classes, testing, road test etc... one requirement is proficiency in english.

Under the table or blue states being blue states and when someone shows up "just off the boat" they hand out a CDL no questions.

 I am trying to muster the courage to read this report. It is apparently very detailed, and absolutely horrifying.

I know if I read it I would want to kill any "Palestinian" or Hamas supporter I saw. Brutally. 

So I won't read it.
