Over the course of at least 20 years, we have slid into a world of euphemistic, feminized public conversation full of feelings and empty of facts. The cultural rise of what you could call “resentment feminism,” which is really just female narcissism, has made it impossible for many alleged adults to use their brains. Oh, they claim they have “thoughts” about policy and societal questions, but they don’t. They have feelings. 

Everyone knows this is true. Look at the way we talk now, compared to 20 years ago. Even middle-aged adults—even men—talk about “vibes,” “feelz,” “inclusivity,” “belonging.” There’s been at least a 10-year social ban on recognizing that men in dresses aren’t women because we’re not allowed to “invalidate” “transwomen.” This is the product of a culture that has put the prototypical elementary school teacher on a cultural pedestal while wussifying boys and men. 

The change in tone, the infantilization of adult political discourse, is most obvious in the legacy news media. There was never a golden age in which the New York Times, CNN, and CBS only told the truth straight down the middle, but there was a time in living memory when you could expect at least some facts, and almost no overt “feelings,” in the pages of the newspapers of record. 

Today? News anchors blatantly editorialize during their broadcasts. The entire legacy media is liberal and woke, and hates Donald Trump with an intensity usually reserved for intra-family generational grudges. Women like Rachel Maddow on MSNBC drone on in histrionic terms, telling Americans that the Republican Party is bringing authoritarianism and fascism to the country because the President wants to deport illegal aliens. 

While no one was looking it became mainstream cultural opinion, at least in the media, that’s it’s “mean” to kick people out of the U.S. who broke in illegally. In April of 2025 we were treated to the astonishing spectacle of elected U.S. officials flying to El Salvador to do “wellness checks” on a Salvadoran gang member who finally got booted out of the country, which makes liberals sad. 

That’s why it’s such a treat to watch top Trump advisor Stephen Miller bring back fully adult, masculine, fact-based authority to the political conversation. The man knows the constitution and U.S. law backward and forward, and he tolerates no mewling emotional nonsense from the mainstream press. 

Check out this scolding Miller gave the White House press corps, which seems to have no idea what legal due process actually is. Bafflingly, they’re more concerned about the alleged “legal rights” of foreign nationals who bust into the U.S. than they are about the fact that some of these aliens are raping and murdering American women. 

A good portion of the American public is glad to hear. Here’s how people reacted on X/Twitter. 

Of course, there are always a few who have a hard time understanding clear, declarative sentences. Or, perhaps they’re just “fact-sensitive.”

Hold onto your hat because I’m about to break some unbelievable news: two Democrat activist judge are actually going to face consequences for their illegal (in my view, treasonous) behavior. Both of them were caught hiding, or helping to escape, illegal aliens. That’s right. They were both on the side of illegal aliens and tried to help them evade arrest and deportation. 

First up is Milwaukee County Circuit judge Hannah Dugan, who found herself in handcuffs on April 25. Why? Because she tried to help an illegal alien–a defendant in her courtroom–escape detection by immigration officers. According to a complaint from the U.S. Dept. of Justice, judge Dugan was trying a case in which illegal Mexican alien Eduardo Flores-Ruiz was being tried for battery. Judge Dugan was apparently so upset at contemplating that the border jumper would be deported that, according to the DOJ, she led the defendant and his lawyer through a back door so he could evade federal agents in the lobby waiting to arrest him. 

FBI director Kash Patel said, “We believe Judge Dugan intentionally misdirected federal agents away from the subject to be arrested in her courthouse, Eduardo Flores Ruiz, allowing the subject — an illegal alien — to evade arrest.”

Next up is a former magistrate judge in New Mexico, Joel Cano, along with his wife, Nancy. The government claims judge Cano was hiding a member of the violent Venezualan gang Tren de Aragua gang, another illegal alien, in his own home. A photo from Fox News alleges to show Joel Cano and his family hanging out in the kitchen with the gang member. 

Attorney General Pam Bondi appeared on Fox News and described the brazen lawbreaking alleged against judge Dugan. She said, “She comes back into the courtroom. You’re not going to believe this. Takes the defendant and the defense attorney back in her chambers. Takes them out a private exit and tells them to leave. While the state prosecutor and victims of domestic violence are sitting in the courtroom.”

This shouldn’t be predictable because it’s insane, but it is predictable: the Democrats are losing their everloving minds. The very idea that a judge could be arrested for breaking the law seems to be entirely new to them. 

Here’s Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders:

Wisconsin’s Rep Gwen Moore is also having difficulty understanding the idea that judges cannot break the law, too. 

Here’s a sampling of reaction on X/Twitter. 

Who knew? The Central American nation of El Salvador is 2025’s hottest vacation destination for Democrat politicians from the U.S. Why, it has everything. Sunny beaches, a good-looking president, and Kilmar Abrego Garcia. 

Who? How can you not know? Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a household name! Sadly, it’s true. Somehow, in year 2025, an illegal alien who broke into the United States, got slapped with domestic violence charges (that his wife later dropped), has a membership in the international criminal gang MS-13, and who was once stopped by a cop under suspicion of human trafficking, has become a name everyone on the left knows. 

And everyone on the political left, it seems, wants to be Garcia’s new best friend. The El Salvadoran national, whom the U.S. media insists on deceptively labeling a “Maryland man” or “Maryland father,” jumped the border in 2011. He met a woman and had children. Then cops stopped him in 2019 hanging around with known members of the MS-13 gang. 

Keep up, but remember that he’s an El Salvadoran man. He’s an illegal alien in the U.S. Notice how many years he was allowed to live here with no papers, absolutely unmolested by U.S. authorities. In the meantime, he roughed his wife up so much that she filed for a protective order, then, as so many battered women do, decided to stop pressing charges.

Then this year, Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested Garcia and got him ready for deportation, finally. The left went ballistic, claiming that he “could not be deported,” relying on a prior court order that said he could not be deported to El Salvador, his own country, because he might be hurt by gangs there. But he still was under a deportation order, which Democrats and the media pretend they don’t know. 

That alleged Salvadoran gang (different from MS-13) seems to no longer exist, making him deportable again. But in their zeal to stop an illegal alien gang member from being sent back home, leftists raced to court to get an order stopping his deportation. The Trump administration deported him anyway. 

Now we have the amazing spectacle of multiple elected Democrats flying to El Salvador to do a wellness check on a criminal who isn’t a U.S. citizen. First it was Maryland’s Chris Van Hollen, snapped in photos having a lovely coffee and bottled water tete a tete in El Salvador. 

Now Oregon Democrat Rep. Maxine Dexter is on her way to Central America, proudly proclaiming that she will not leave El Salvador until Kilmar Garcia is returned to the United States. You know, the U.S. in which he is not a citizen, and from which he has been deported. 

Tere’s no way to make any sense of it. Let’s see what X/Twitter users had to say about Dexter’s selfless humanitarian act. 

As you know, in 2025 America it’s normal to care infinitely about the wellbeing of illegal aliens who jump our border, but to care nothing at all about the safety of Americans. Democrat politicians have been falling over themselves for years bellyaching about “due process” for third-worlders who respect our country so little that they sneak in and then complain about the quality of the free food America gives them. 

We’ve watched while leftist politicians go to bat for the scum of the third world while our wives, daughters, and sisters are raped and murdered by these “guests.” But the ante has been upped by Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen, who is allegedly so moved by the plight of Kilmar Abrego Garcia that Van Hollen flew to El Salvador to visit him. Abrego Garcia is the Salvadoran national–he was illegally in the U.S.–deported last week to El Salvador amid a flurry of conflicting court rulings and interpretations. 

Two immigration courts in the past found that the man was a member of the international criminal gang MS13 and was eligible to be deported. At some point, another court ruled at the time that he could not be deported to his home country of El Salvador for fear that the gang he belonged to there would hurt him. That gang, which is different from MS13, no longer exists in El Salvador. 

Abrego Garcia ended up back in El Salvador after the federal government deported him, which set off a round of absolute hysteria among Democrat politicians about “due process.” Maryland’s Van Hollen took it farther than anyone by getting on a plane to El Salvador and demanding that the Salvadoran government let him meet with the deportee. After being rebuffed twice, Van Hollen ended up sitting down with Abrego Garcia somewhere, though it is unclear how this happened, and where the deportee is being incarcerated. 

See how concerned and paternal Van Hollen looks? The Maryland Senator made sure to tell the U.S. press that Abrego Garcia was “traumatized.”

It gets even more unbelievable. Abrego Garcia’s wife, Jennifer, who is tearfully pleading for his return and calling him a loving husband and father, filed court papers against her husband several years ago alleging domestic violence against him. It’s not clear why she is now so supportive of his return. For a time in 2021, Jennifer Garcia had a protective order against her husband. 

All of that appears to be news to Senator Chris Van Hollen, who could not even identify Jennifer at a press conference. Watch him call out her name and look around in bewilderment as the woman realizes he doesn’t even know who she is. 

Oh yes, X/Twitter users had some commentary:

And take a look at this picture of  Van Hollen and Abrego Garcia in El Salvador, with humorous captions added. Does this look like a prison to you? 

President Donald Trump is not letting this go. He reminded the American public on social media that Abrego Garcia is not a “Maryland father” as the media insists, but a foreign national gangbanger:

Naturally, liberals feel very tenderly toward the violent and non-American:

There are none so blind as those who have decided that they will not see:
