Beck addresses the pertinent question: Why is Trump putting his legacy on the line?
In an election-year pledge, reminiscent of the old-style Democratic moves by Franklin Delano Roosevelt, President Donald Trump is pledging to give every eligible American adult a $5,000 rebate, providing the Republicans can retain both chambers of the Congress.
Some restrictions will apply. For instance, Vice President J.D. Vance has suggested that the wealthiest Americans might be excluded. Also likely to be excluded: Illegal aliens. Trump held out the pledge at the Republicans’ midterm convention in Dallas, Texas.
He also announced he is seeking major changes in the way the 2030 U.S. Census is conducted. Under his plan, illegal aliens and non-permanent legal residents would not be counted as part of the population used to decide House apportionment. This would significantly reduce the number of seats given states like California and New York, while raising totals for red states.
Opponents argue the 14th Amendment requires apportionment based on the “whole number of persons” in each state. The proposal is open for public comment and is expected to face significant legal challenges. Here’s more from Stephen Gardner. He also touches upon plans by Trump and Elon Musk to spend heavily on behalf of Republican candidates in the upcoming midterm elections.
In 1952, nine of America’s wealthiest families gathered in a Maine mansion for a séance. Nine ancient gods spoke through a medium and chose nine people to change the world.
Eleven years later, the CIA officer who ran that séance’s donor list sent a Russian aristocrat to befriend a troubled ex-Marine named Lee Harvey Oswald.
That aristocrat introduced Oswald’s wife to a woman named Ruth Paine. Every piece of evidence against Oswald, the rifle, the photos, the testimony, ran through Ruth Paine’s garage.
A spy camera vanished from police custody. A Warren Commissioner’s mistress was best friends with a woman at that séance. The connections are documented. The conclusions are yours to draw. Here’s more from The Why Files.
Here’s a reach into the past — Tex Avery’s 1955 cartoon The First Bad Man, about a dinosaur-riding hombre born a million years ago.

President Donald Trump is cracking down on the fraud, but could there be dangerous repercussions?
For instance, will housing markets fall in certain cities, like Dallas? Here’s more from Mark Dice.
John Cornyn has held his Senate seat from Texas for the past 24 years, but the RINO ran into an absolute buzzsaw in Tuesday’s primary runoff. Texans overwhelmingly voted to end Cornyn’s Senate tenure and shift instead to Ken Paxton, the MAGA-beloved Attorney General who had received the endorsement of President Donald Trump.
Paxton not only routed Cornyn in rural areas, but also amassed impressive victories in most of the urban centers of Texas, although Cornyn held his own in Dallas, while getting shellacked in Houston. Paxton received more than 60 percent of the vote, with Cornyn only managing less than 40 percent. The Associated Press called Paxton as the winner of the race at 9 p.m. Eastern time.
Elsewhere, longtime Democratic incumbent U.S. Rep. Al Green, an outspoken foe of Trump, got his shorts cleaned by Christian Menefee. Also apparently losing: Democratic House candidate Maureen Galindo, who had shocked voters with her extremist, anti-Israel rhetoric. It looks as if Johnny Garcia will clip her in House District 35, facing off against Republican Carlos de la Cruz in November.
Here is Paxton’s acceptance speech, presented by the Associated Press.
It’s spring break, and the Democratic Party’s consistency is going wild. Glenn Beck reviews just a few of the insane stories from the past week:
One of U.S. Rep. Jasmine Crockett’s trusted security guards has died following a gun battle with members of the Dallas Texas Police Department’s SWAT team. The hotheaded Congresswoman wasn’t present at the time.
Mike King, the security guard in question, had been under surveillance for impersonating an officer and stealing license plates from vehicles parked near a military installation.
He died after holing himself up in a hospital parking garage in the 1900 block of Medical District Drive. SWAT officers had tried to approach him, leading to him dashing into his car and driving into the garage, where the confrontation followed. Here’s more from M.J. Truth.
Even more of the United States is now coming under extreme winter weather warnings. The warnings stretch more than 2000 miles, from Santa Fe in the Rockies all the way east and north to Boston along the Atlantic coastal shores.
Heaviest snowfall totals are projected for the Mid Atlantic states as well as the Midwest states lining the Ohio River — Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois onto Missouri. Heavy snow will fall between I-40 and I-70, with the Midwest states likely receiving at least a foot of snow. Snowfall totals will increase as the storm — dubbed Winter Storm Fern — approaches the Atlantic Ocean, entering Pennsylvania, New York and New England. The snow could pile up as much as two feet in some locales.
The South won’t get whacked by snow, but faces potentially deadly ice storms that could bring down grown trees and powerlines, while sending citizens shivering in homes reeling without energy. The ice will stretch eastward from Texas and Oklahoma, encompassing much of Arkansas, Tennessee and Georgia, including the city of Atlanta. Snow already began falling Friday night in the Texas Panhandle, with expectations for ice to slam into Dallas and Tulsa.
Brutal cold weather will aggravate conditions as winds from Canada push chilling temperatures southward. The storm will linger through Sunday, although cold weather will remain entrenched over much of this vast region on Monday and Tuesday. So travel isn’t advised. Best to hunker down at home, and be sure to have supplies of food, water, batteries and life-saving gear.
Here’s a short, but comprehensive report from CBS News. Best to check your local stations for up-to-the-minute news and forecasts for your vicinity.
When It Snows in Texas. Here’s an iconic look at a Panhandle panic from the cartoon King of the Hill. The town of Arlen doesn’t exist, but it’s based on King of the Hill creator Mike Judge’s memories of growing up in Texas, and specifically, the suburbs around Dallas and Ft. Worth.
The unsealing of the first indictment will trigger a mass awakening from the general population. That’s been the word for months now from And We Know, and he’s sticking with it.
And journalist John Solomon from Just The News believes that moment of awareness and awakening is occurring. He notes the indictment issued Tuesday by a grand jury in Maryland, charging John Bolton, the former National Security Advisor, on 18 counts, all felonies, involving the mishandling of classified documents.
Also indicted Tuesday: Smartmatic, the voting election machine company, was charged in Miami with paying more than $1 million in bribes to an election official in the Philippines to win contracts for the nation’s 2016 election. In addition, a grand jury in Dallas filed terrorism charges against alleged Antifa members involved in an attack on an ICE (U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement) facility in Texas.
Does this signal accountability is finally coming? Will we see more moves soon to end the crippling corruption that has wracked so much of our nation? Here’s more from And We Know.
