Texas AG: Biden Violated Federal Law with This Executive Order

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R) on Friday filed a lawsuit against the Biden administration for one of the president's first executive orders, which halts all deportations of illegal aliens during his first 100 days in office. According to Paxton, the freeze violates the Constitution and is a violation of federal immigration and administrative law as well as an agreement between the State of Texas and the Department of Homeland Security.

“In one of its first of dozens of steps that harm Texas and the nation as a whole, the Biden administration directed DHS to violate federal immigration law and breach an agreement to consult and cooperate with Texas on that law. Our state defends the largest section of the southern border in the nation. Failure to properly enforce the law will directly and immediately endanger our citizens and law enforcement personnel,” the attorney general said in a statement. “DHS itself has previously acknowledged that such a freeze on deportations will cause concrete injuries to Texas. I am confident that these unlawful and perilous actions cannot stand. The rule of law and security of our citizens must prevail.”

According to the lawsuit, the halt on deportations could create a bigger issue, with DHS deciding to extend the halt, which Paxton says would "effectively grant a blanket amnesty to illegal aliens that Congress has refused to pass time and time again."

The deportation halt ignores the recent agreement Texas and DHS finalized earlier this month that would require the federal agency to provide the state with 180-days notice before making any changes to immigration and enforcement policies and practices.

Biden's immigration halt has already drawn an increase in illegal border crossings. Caravans are starting up again in Central America. One illegal alien even admitted that Biden gave them 100 days to get into the United States.

Time Publishes an Astonishing Story About a 'Cabal' and 'Shadow Campaign' That Helped Biden Win

BY STACEY LENNOX  | P J Media

Time published a story that provides absolutely astonishing details and framing of activities that took place around the 2020 election. As readers, you deserve a detailed analysis of this story and the people and organizations involved. The recounting of the story in Time is longer than a chapter in many novels. Time says additional details will be provided in a series of articles over the next several days. This article is an introduction.

The title is provocative enough. “The Secret History of the Shadow Campaign That Saved the 2020 Election.” The story goes on to describe in precise detail a coalition of various powerful special interest groups that united, beginning a year before the election, to ensure Joe Biden would win.

Time begins by describing the trepidation that surrounded the 2020 election after a summer filled with left-wing violence and the concern that more violence would follow the election outcome. The article then quotes President Trump on December 2nd when the chorus calling on him to concede reached a fever pitch, even among his supporters:

To the President, something felt amiss. “It was all very, very strange,” Trump said on Dec. 2. “Within days after the election, we witnessed an orchestrated effort to anoint the winner, even while many key states were still being counted.”

In a way, Trump was right.

Excuse me? Just wait, Time explains:

There was a conspiracy unfolding behind the scenes, one that both curtailed the protests and coordinated the resistance from CEOs. Both surprises were the result of an informal alliance between left-wing activists and business titans. The pact was formalized in a terse, little-noticed joint statement of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and AFL-CIO published on Election Day. Both sides would come to see it as a sort of implicit bargain–inspired by the summer’s massive, sometimes destructive racial-justice protests–in which the forces of labor came together with the forces of capital to keep the peace and oppose Trump’s assault on democracy.

This “implicit bargain” is just one part of what the author refers to as “an extraordinary shadow effort.” An effort aimed at what, you ask? Time says it was to preserve a free, fair, credible, and uncorrupted election. Understanding the tactics these groups employed, it would make sense if you felt like you were being told not to believe what you saw with your own eyes for much of November and December:

Their work touched every aspect of the election. They got states to change voting systems and laws and helped secure hundreds of millions in public and private funding. They fended off voter-suppression lawsuits, recruited armies of poll workers and got millions of people to vote by mail for the first time. They successfully pressured social media companies to take a harder line against disinformation and used data-driven strategies to fight viral smears. They executed national public-awareness campaigns that helped Americans understand how the vote count would unfold over days or weeks, preventing Trump’s conspiracy theories and false claims of victory from getting more traction. After Election Day, they monitored every pressure point to ensure that Trump could not overturn the result. “The untold story of the election is the thousands of people of both parties who accomplished the triumph of American democracy at its very foundation,” says Norm Eisen, a prominent lawyer and former Obama Administration official who recruited Republicans and Democrats to the board of the Voter Protection Program.

Then Time tells you how you are supposed to feel after reading the entire story. The bluntness of it, telling readers that they know how it sounds but they must interpret it differently, is gobsmacking arrogance:

That’s why the participants want the secret history of the 2020 election told, even though it sounds like a paranoid fever dream–a well-funded cabal of powerful people, ranging across industries and ideologies, working together behind the scenes to influence perceptions, change rules and laws, steer media coverage and control the flow of information. They were not rigging the election; they were fortifying it. And they believe the public needs to understand the system’s fragility in order to ensure that democracy in America endures.

What is described in the entire story has nothing to do with democracy or the consent of the governed. Instead, it represents a bargain between unions, corporations, activist groups, and the political elite. It is a precursor to the triumvirate of unions, big business, and the government becoming more evident every day. Put another way, the political elite, the very wealthy, the bureaucracy, and those willing to subsidize struck a bargain.

President Franklin D. Roosevelt was the first to attempt a formal version of this type of cooperation. Roosevelt established the National Recovery Administration (NRA) in 1933. Encoded into law, it implemented a series of regulations and codes that benefitted large corporations and labor unions. Companies that complied with codes were allowed to display a blue eagle emblem to confirm their compliance. In 1935 the Supreme Court ruled the NRA unconstitutional.

This time, there will be no such official agency or law establishing a public-private partnership. Instead, it is being coordinated through the “all of government approach” to climate change outlined in one of President Biden’s executive orders, our reentry into the Paris Climate Accords, and Special Envoy for Climate John Kerry’s participation in the Great Reset at the World Economic Forum.

Kerry explains how world governments will provide a framework to address climate change. Kerry says private industry has a historic opportunity to access a global market of four to five billion people in 190 countries, all moving in the same direction on climate through the Paris Accords. He continued:

And the private sector now is really beginning to see this. Bjorn, yours was the stage where the letter from Larry Fink at BlackRock came out and it put squarely in front of a lot of these CEO’s the issue of stakeholder versus shareholder.

BlackRock is a global financial investment company with assets under management of nearly $8 trillion in 2019. If BlackRock were a country, it would have the third-largest economy globally, behind the U.S. and China. The letter from Chairman and CEO Larry Fink explained how BlackRock would begin to consider climate risk in its investment portfolio. It outlined complex reporting requirements around climate change, equity, and social issues that only the largest organizations will be able to produce.

Together, large organizations and the government will push these requirements for government contractors and vendors in private industry. Coca Cola is one example of this phenomenon. They recently issued diversity hiring quotas that their outside counsel must meet or receive 30% less in reimbursement. From the letter sent to their legal firms:

“We will no longer celebrate good intentions or highly unproductive efforts that haven’t and aren’t likely to produce better diverse staffing,” General Counsel Bradley Gayton wrote. “It’s the results that we are demanding and will measure going forward.”

This summary is a 10,000-foot view of the big picture that would incentivize the Time story’s varied interests to cooperate. Labor unions, business titans, and left-wing activists all collaborated to influence 2020 in the direction of the administration that embraces global governance organizations, international treaties, and social justice issues. The reward is power and money, two of the greatest motivators of all, brought in under the guise of saving the planet.

Republicans Should be Cheerfully Optimistic

By Newt Gingrich


The propaganda media and the Democrats are trying to keep Republicans on defense with a campaign of smears, exaggerations, and outright lies.

From trying to impeach President Donald Trump (who is now a private citizen), to focusing on Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, to maximizing the divide between Rep. Liz Cheney and Trump supporters, the propaganda media and the Democrats are maneuvering to try to create a defensive Republican Party. They want to keep the GOP crouched in a circular firing squad shooting at itself.

This is because the Democrats have real imperatives driving them to harass and attack Republicans.

First, anti-Trump and anti-Republican rhetoric is the only thing unifying an otherwise shaky coalition on the Left. The longer they can keep making noise about Trump and Republicans, the more time they have to sign executive orders and change America through regulations without anyone noticing.

Second, the more they can focus the media on the Republicans, the less the media will cover the radical, corrupt, and job-killing actions and foreign policy blunders of the Biden Democratic Party.

Forget about the $600 million in cyber theft that Washington state Employment Security Department Commissioner Suzi LeVine presided over before being picked by President Biden for a leadership post in the Labor Department.

Forget the $11.4 billion to $31 billion in California unemployment insurance fraud in 2020.

Forget Gov. Andrew Cuomo mismanaging COVID-19 so badly that nine top public health officials have resigned. Cuomo’s failures are so big, and the unnecessary deaths are so great, even The New York Times is beginning to cover the Democratic governor’s disaster.

Forget Gov. Gavin Newsom mismanaging California so badly there is a petition drive underway to force a recall election. This is the disaster being ignored when Democrats say they want to “make America California again.”

Forget the radical House rules, which 207 Democrats voted for, to take mother, father, brother, sister, and other gender-specific words out of the House’s official rules document (imagine trying to explain that vote in most of America).

Forget President Biden’s executive order waiving Title IX for transgender males who want to compete as women – even if they have not undergone any biological changes. To the propaganda media, the collapse of competitive women’s sports is not a big enough issue to cover.

Finally, forget Frank Biden’s ad touting his close ties to his brother that was published by a Miami law firm on Inauguration Day. And forget the number of lawyers Hunter Biden has now hired to defend himself against a range of charges involving business dealings with China, Russia, and Ukraine – which the Left and the propaganda media insisted didn’t exist prior to the election.

The list could go on, but you get the picture.

The Democrats must stay on offense because they will be crushed once the American people see what they have actually been doing. The 2022 election could potentially become a nightmare for House and Senate Democrats. Remember: In 1994, House Democrats lost 54 seats and control for the first time in 40 years. In 2010, Democrats lost 63 seats and control. By every historic standard, the Democrats’ narrow five-vote majority should disappear in 2022 and Kevin McCarthy should become Speaker of the House.

Republicans have every reason to be optimistic.

Today, there are 27 Republican governors. In 23 states, Republicans control the legislature as well as the governorship.

There are 4,007 Republican state legislators to 3,312 Democratic state legislators (with Republicans on the rise). The state legislator advantage means Republicans will draw the lines for reapportionment for about four times as many House seats as the Democrats. This further increases Republican opportunities in 2022.

Despite every effort of the Left to arouse (or manufacture) a civil war in the GOP, the party will remain largely unified and focused on creating more jobs, lowering taxes, increasing take home pay, defending America’s interests around the world – and developing solutions in health, learning, space, and other areas that matter to our future.

Ultimately, the Republican Party of entrepreneurship and hard work will defeat the Democratic Party of unemployment and redistribution.

Jobs and education will lead to continued Republican support in minority communities. The diverse House freshmen class (the most diverse GOP freshman class in history) and President Trump’s achievement in getting the most minority votes of any Republican presidential candidate in 60 years bode well for a continued growth for a party of prosperity and opportunity.

The Left is desperate to create a pro-Trump vs. anti-Trump civil war in the GOP. It will not happen. President Trump is by far the best known and most liked Republican. But the Republican Party is much bigger than any one person.

When you look at the achievements of Gov. Ron DeSantis in Florida and Gov. Greg Abbott in Texas, you can see a clear, successful future for the GOP.

We are never going to be an anti-Trump party. We are also never going to be a Trump-only party. Unlike modern Democrats, we welcome a diversity of opinions.

Think of our future as a Trump-plus Republican party.

The former president will play a major role, but there will be a lot of smart, creative people adding their ideas and proving their capabilities. Our bench is immensely deeper than the Democrats’.

When you look at these long-term realities, it is clear Republicans should be optimists and let the Democrats have the monopoly on bitterness, hostility, and negativity.

When you see a Democrat, smile at them. It will drive them nuts. You are going to win, and they are once again going to sink into despair and defeatism.

EXPLOSIVE Study: Media Suppression of 8 Key Stories 'Stole This Election' for Joe Biden

BY TYLER O'NEIL | P J Media

According to an explosive new study the Media Research Center (MRC) released on Tuesday, the legacy media’s suppression of eight key election-related news stories effectively handed the presidential election to Democrat Joe Biden. According to a poll conducted by The Polling Company on behalf of MRC, a whopping 17 percent of Americans who voted for Joe Biden would not have done so had they been aware of just one of these stories.

Had the legacy media not buried these stories, Trump would have won 311 electoral votes, the study claims.

“The national news media stole this election, as far as I’m concerned, they deliberately stole it from President Trump,” MRC President Brent Bozell said in a call with reporters. “It is absolutely unequivocal” that the biased media coverage “cost Donald Trump the election.”

FreedomWorks President Adam Brandon called the 2020 campaign an “issueless conversation,” noting that “without talking about issues, it basically ended up being a referendum on the president’s personality.”

Brandon said America is a center-right country, but the legacy media suppressed the key issues, subverting the substantive issues that should have decided the 2020 election.

The Polling Company surveyed 1,750 Biden voters in seven swing states: Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. Six of these states (all except North Carolina) have been called for Biden. The poll found that a whopping 82 percent of Biden voters were unaware of at least one of the news stories, while only five percent said they did not know about all eight.

One out of every six Biden voters (17 percent) said they would not have voted for the Democrat had they known the facts about one or more of these news stories.

The poll raised these eight news stories: Tara Reade’s sexual assault allegations against Joe Biden; Joe Biden’s involvement in the Hunter Biden corruption scandal; Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) getting rated the most leftist senator; 33 percent GDP growth in the third quarter of 2020; 11.1 million jobs created from June 5 to October 2; the Middle East peace deals with Israel that led to three Nobel Peace Prize nominations for Trump; U.S. energy independence; and Trump’s successes with Operation Warp Speed in fighting the Wuhan coronavirus pandemic.

The legacy media’s decision to bury Biden’s scandals had the strongest impact on the election, according to the poll. More than one-third of Biden voters (35.4 percent) said they were unaware of Tara Reade’s serious allegations that Biden sexually assaulted her in the 1990s, a story the legacy media effectively buried. A full 8.9 percent of Biden voters said they would have changed their vote — either to Trump, to a third-party candidate, not voting for a presidential candidate, or not voting at all, if they had known about the Reade allegations.

According to MRC, this would have flipped six states — Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin — giving Trump 311 electoral votes.

Nearly half of Biden voters (45.1 percent) said they did not know about the financial scandal involving Biden and his son Hunter, which Twitter, Facebook, and the legacy media suppressed or ignored. According to MRC, full awareness of the scandal would have led 9.4 percent of Biden voters to abandon the Democrat, flipping all six of the states to Trump.

The legacy media also largely ignored the GovTrack analysis finding that Kamala Harris had the most left-wing record of any senator in 2019 — even further left than self-described Democratic Socialist Bernie Sanders. A quarter of Biden voters (25.3 percent) said they did not know about Harris’ record. A critical 4.1 percent said they would have changed their vote had they known. This proportion would have flipped Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin to Trump, giving Trump 295 electoral votes.

MRC also found that legacy media suppression of positive Trump stories impacted the results.

The five pre-election jobs reports from June 5 to October 2 showed that the economy created a record 11,161,000 jobs in a snapback from the pandemic recession. Yet 39.4 percent of Biden voters said they did not know about this achievement. Knowledge of this issue would have led 5.4 percent of them to change their votes, swinging Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin to Trump, according to MRC.

On October 29, the government reported that the GDP had grown by an impressive 33.1 percent, double the previous record. Yet almost half of Biden voters (49.0 percent) said they did not know about this achievement. Had they known, 5.6 percent said they would have changed their vote, giving Trump 295 electoral votes.

Similarly, the legacy media effectively buried the impressive and historic peace agreements between Israel and Arab Muslim countries. These achievements gained Trump three Nobel Prize nominations. Yet 43.5 percent of Biden voters had no idea about these agreements. Five percent of Biden voters said they would have changed their votes had they known, giving Trump 295 electoral votes.

Under President Trump, America achieved energy independence, thanks in part to Trump’s action on long-stalled pipeline projects and expansion of drilling. America became a net exporter of oil for the first time in September 2019. Yet more than half (50.5 percent) of Biden voters said they did not know about this and 5.8 percent of Biden voters said they would have changed their votes had they known. This would have resulted in the 295-electoral vote win for Trump.

Finally, while the legacy media obsessively covered COVID-19, it effectively buried the positive news about Trump’s achievements with Operation Warp Speed, which was well on track to deliver 300 million doses of a safe vaccine as soon as next year.

A full 36.1 percent of Biden voters said they did not know about the success of Operation Warp Speed, and 5.3 percent said that if they had, they would have abandoned Biden. This alone would have given Trump 295 electoral votes.

Overall, a total of 17 percent of Biden voters said they would have changed their votes had they known about one or more of the important stories. This would have given Trump 311 electoral votes.

The results in specific states also proved remarkable. In Pennsylvania, 15 percent of Biden voters said they would have defected. In Michigan, 14 percent said so. In Georgia, 15 percent of Biden’s voters would have changed their votes. Another 21 percent of Biden voters in Arizona said so. Another 13 percent of Wisconsin voters would have abandoned Biden while 18 percent of Nevada Biden voters said they would have switched their votes.

“The most basic principle of our electoral system is that our leaders are chosen by the people themselves. But if the people are given systematically one-sided information, with crucial facts omitted, then the real power to choose has been stolen from them,” the MRC report argued.

A Tsunami of Hate

By John Hinderaker | POWERLINE 


Our friend David Horowitz makes the case that our present political crisis is not the result of polarized views on policy, but rather is caused by the Left’s outpouring of vicious hate and determination to crush all opposition.

Everybody agrees that our country is in crisis – and agrees that it is the worst crisis since the Civil War. But at the same time, we tell ourselves a comforting tale about the source of the crisis that perpetuates the problem instead of providing a path to ending it. We say our politics are “divisive” and talk about “unity and healing” as though that would miraculously be achieved if everybody stopped … what? Disagreeing? All politics is divisive. That’s the healthy basis of our constitutional order: the freedom to disagree. To suppress disagreement, to outlaw it – as many Democrats and their Big Tech and media allies – are demanding these days, is to end democracy as we know it.

The problem is not that we disagree. We are not suffering as a nation from healthy disagreement. We are suffering from a Tsunami of Hate emanating from the Democrat Party that seeks to demonize, criminalize and extinguish dissent from the 75 million supporters of Donald Trump. It is now official Washington dogma that to question an election result – something the congressional Democrats have done in the face of every Republican presidential victory since 2000 – is now “insurrection” and “domestic terrorism,” or the incitement thereto, and needs to be prosecuted and suppressed.

You can’t have a democracy if this is the attitude of a party that controls all three branches of government, is enabled by a corrupt and compliant media, and is determined not just to defeat, but to humiliate, destroy and expunge from the record an ex-president who is supported by a greater segment of the American electorate than any American leader before him.

There is Democrat-sponsored legislation pending that would prevent any public building or artifact, even a “bench” from being named after the 45th president of the United States. There is a farcical witch-trial to impeach the same villain even though he has left office and is now a private citizen. There is even Democrat talk of stripping Trump of his pension, despite the fact that he gave his entire $1.6 million salary as president to the American people – something no president before him has done. If ever there was a public lynching, short of stringing the victim from the nearest tree – and there are no lack of leftwing calls for that – the Democrats’ unrelentingly vindictive assault on the defeated Donald Trump down to the last petty detail is it.

But what is in effect a total war is not merely a war to cancel Donald Trump. If it were, it would be reprehensible enough, but not a threat to the nation itself.


This demonic hate directed by the Democrat Party towards Trump is also hate for the 75 million Americans who voted for him. And there is no shortage of reminders of that. Ordinary Americans in all walks of life who happen to think that Trump’s presidency – which included record employment and record economic growth, delivered benefits for all Americans, particularly American minorities, secured America’s borders, defeated America’s terrorist enemies and led to an unprecedented reconciliation between Arab nations and the State of Israel – Americans who think this is a worthy achievement are treated as social pariahs, have their careers destroyed and (shades of the Kremlin) are regarded as mentally unfit and in need of deprogramming.

In a March 2020 interview with Axios James Clyburn – the third ranking Democrat in the House and the political figure most responsible for Biden’s primary victory – raised the specter of Hitler when speaking about Trump, calling the president a racist and likening modern-day America to Germany during the Nazi Party’s rise to power. “I used to wonder how could the people of Germany allow Hitler to exist,” said Clyburn. “But with each passing day, I’m beginning to understand how. And that’s why I’m trying to sound the alarm.”

A Tsunami of Hate – not “divisiveness” – is the root cause of our political crisis and the most existential threat we have faced since the war to end slavery.

The fact that the threat posed by the Democrats’ Tsunami of Hate is not just to Trump and his supporters, but to America itself, was evident in one of Biden’s first directives as president, declaring that a war on America’s “systemic racism” would be a priority of his administration: “The fact is systemic racism touches every facet of American life.”

This is one of the Big Lies that have become articles of faith for Democrats, and is easily refuted. The 1964 Civil Rights Act outlawed “systemic racism.” Here is the Wikipedia description of the law:

The Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Pub. L. 88–352, 78 Stat. 241, enacted July 2, 1964) is a landmark civil rights and labor law in the United States that outlaws discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, and later sexual orientation and gender identity. It prohibits unequal application of voter registration requirements, racial segregation in schools and public accommodations…

If systemic racism or institutional racism were a serious problem in America – let alone touched “every facet of American life,” – as Biden says, what do you think would happen? Assume, as Biden and woke Democrats generally seem to think, that all white people are racists, there are thousands of black attorneys, attorneys general, prosecutors, judges, legislators and occupiers of the highest seats of government. If there was a scintilla of truth in this statement there would be thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands of lawsuits filed under the Civil Rights Act. But there are no such lawsuits. The claim that “systemic racism touches every facet of American life” is itself a racist lie, whose evident target is white people, since according to the woke, “people of color” can’t be racist.

Not surprisingly, one of Biden’s first week initiatives was a systemically racist plan to provide financial assistance to small businesses whose owners were black, Asian, Hispanic, and Native American. Only whites were excluded. But Asian Americans as an ethnic group have higher incomes than white Americans. So what rationale for this policy is there but anti-white racism?

How virulent is the anti-white and anti-American racism of the Democrat Party? Consider this unhinged but also unchallenged statement by Vice President Kamala Harris defending the Black Lives Matters rioters whose “protests” caused billions in property damage, led to 25 deaths and injured 2000 police officers in the summer of 2020: “The reality is that the life of a black person in America has never been treated as fully human… It’s no wonder people are taking to the streets [to protest]. And I support them.”

In other words, the 44th president of the United States, the “most admired man in America” for over a decade wasn’t treated as “fully human,” or Martin Luther King – the only American with a national holiday in his honor (courtesy of President Ronald Reagan). This lunatic hatred of white America is now not only acceptable in the Democrat Party but the hateful creed of its leaders.

To be fair, there are two main areas of systemic racism in America today, but both are supported and enforced by the Democrat Party, which is why they exist. The first is the systemic racism that traps inner city children – mainly ethnic minorities – in inferior schools that for fifty years and more have failed to provide 80 percent of them with the skills that are necessary to succeed. Every year 40% of inner city children drop out of school without graduating, and 40% of those who do, are functionally illiterate. The Democrat teacher unions – the same which went on strike during the pandemic with full pay at the expense of children who could not afford to miss school – exert absolute control over these school systems and have stifled all attempts at reforms. They are unalterably opposed to every alternative to their racist policies, from charter schools to vouchers that give inner city kids the same privilege as their middle-class counterparts, to allow their parents to enroll them in schools that will teach them.

The other nationwide systemic racism is affirmative action programs which discriminate against all ethnic groups but those designated “oppressed” – a convenient leftist fiction used to justify all manner of injustice. If you’re black or Pacific Islander or Hispanic, go to the head of the line for a job, a promotion, a place at Harvard, a coveted training position to become a surgeon or other medical specialist. If you’re white or an ethnic minority whose community supports educational values and scores well on exams, like Asians, forget that place at Harvard, you’re screwed.

How racist is that? And how readily is this racism supported by a president and an administration, which like our most dedicated foreign enemies thinks America is a nation of slavers and racist oppressors, while at the same time our borders are under siege by black, brown and Asian minorities desperate to become citizens of the most tolerant, inclusive and egalitarian society on earth.

America will not be healed until the Democrat Party returns to its senses, repudiates its current racist attitudes, and stops demonizing its opponents as what Speaker Nancy Pelosi has called “enemies of the state.”
