🚨THE GHOST OF MAYORKAS HAUNTS TRUMP DHS

President Trump has fundamentally revamped immigration enforcement after four years of the open-borders Biden regime. But at least one Biden political appointee remains in a position of authority at DHS😲

🧵1/11 Image Meet Jeff Rezmovic, deputy ass't commissioner at CBP's Board of Trade.

Sources say he was close to Mayorkas, Biden's DHS secretary whom the House impeached.

Biden named Rezmovic to be Chief Financial Officer for all of DHS.

🚨BREAKING

Even though President Trump's budget would defund the National Endowment for Democracy, a House GOP FY 2026 funding bill allocated $315M to it.

@RepEliCrane is leading an effort to do what Trump wanted.

Here's why it's important.

Like USAID, NED once advanced US interests abroad, but has become a weapon to enforce woke ideology. In recent years, NED board members compared Trump to Hitler and NED funded the Global Disinformation Index, which targeted conservative news outlets.

🚨ERIC HOLDER'S GHOST HAUNTS TRUMP DOJ

Holder was notorious for weaponizing DOJ under Obama: pushing CRT, dropping the Black Panthers election intimidation case, withholding docs from Congress.

Why's his protege at the DOJ under Trump?🤔

🧵1/8

dailysignal.com/2025/07/27/law…Image Brief reminder:

Holder more or less mainstreamed the idea that voter ID laws are discriminatory, by suing Texas over a voter ID law. The DOJ ultimately settled the case, admitting no "discriminatory effect or intent."

Take a look at this chart.👀

@capitalresearch's Scott Walter presented to @JudiciaryGOP last week, and it inspired me to do some digging.

A @DailySignal analysis found that the feds awarded (under Biden) $1.7B to groups suing the Trump admin—in its first month!

🧵1/12 Image “Your tax dollars provide critical support for the web of woke groups trying to transform America,” Walter said. “It’s shameless to use your tax dollars to sue your government for even more of your tax dollars. But being woke means never having to say you’re sorry!”

The Senate refused to re-confirm Jeffrey Baran for the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in 2023, but taxpayers ended up on the hook, anyway.

How?🤔

Here's the story.

🧵1/6 Image President Biden re-nominated Baran, who had served on the Nuclear Regulatory Commission since 2014, but a pro-nuclear group raised serious concerns about Baran's opposition to policies that enabled nuclear energy.

His renomination bid failed in the Senate.

A woman who helped Kamala Harris demonize Brett Kavanaugh in 2018 now works at the Defense Department under President Trump😲

Apparently, smearing conservatives really does pay.

The SPLC puts mainstream conservatives on a "hate map" with the KKK, silencing its opponents & scaring donors.

I went through its latest tax filing, which lists accounts in the Cayman Islands👀

🧵1/8

dailysignal.com/2025/07/09/pov… The SPLC admitted having an account in a foreign country, the Cayman Islands.

The SPLC also listed $30M in offshore accounts in "Central America and the Caribbean."

This may actually be a decrease from $92.6M in "non-U.S. equities" SPLC reported in 2017.👀

Did the SPLC just admit that it's anti-Christian?🤔

This year's SPLC "hate map" includes @TPUSA & @PragerU alongside KKK chapters.

But SPLC also made a key blunder that undercuts its previous claims not to be "anti-Christian."

wsj.com/opinion/splc-s…Image SPLC puts mainstream conservative & Christian groups on the "hate map" alongside Klan chapters, claiming it's the "infrastructure upholding white supremacy."

What if I told you a top advisor for Adam Schiff during Russiagate and the first Trump impeachment "burrowed in" to the federal bureaucracy and apparently is still there?😲

🚨UTTERLY INEXCUSABLE

The anti-conservative bias at the FBI goes deeper than you think.

This week, @ChuckGrassley exposed how more than 1,000 FBI staff responded to the notorious anti-Catholic memo citing the SPLC, and it's not pretty.

🧵1/8

dailysignal.com/2025/06/05/fbi…Image According to Grassley's office, FBI Richmond disseminated the anti-Catholic memo to 1,000+ staff.

"No one contacted FBI RH with concerns, suggestions, or negative feedback," the report states. The office "only received positive input."😲

THAT in itself is a scandal.

The Southern Poverty Law Center, which trades on its history bankrupting the KKK to smear conservatives as secret supporters of "white supremacy," has put the largest conservative youth org—@TPUSA—on the "hate map" with Klan chapters.

🧵1/15

dailysignal.com/2025/05/24/sou…Image Every year, the SPLC puts out a new version of the "hate map," partly to scare donors into ponying up cash and partly to "cancel" its opponents—cutting them off from polite society.

No, this isn't a parody video.😲

A Democrat did literally invoke "trans Jesus" on the floor of the Colorado Senate.

Yet the legal maneuvering of Chris Kolker and his party in that chamber is even worse.

🧵1/10

dailysignal.com/2025/05/06/dem… Brief refresher:

Colorado LGBTQ groups pushed for HB25-1312, a bill that would define "misgendering" and "deadnaming" as "coercive control" and mandate custody courts consider them.

Democrats excluded parental rights groups from discussion, comparing them to the KKK.

Who are the Biden political appointees who "burrowed in" to the federal bureaucracy?🤔

The list includes a former White House Environmental Justice Advisory Council member, former USAID staff, and immigration lawyers.

I'll explain "burrowing in," then get to the names.

🧵1/15 Image First, what is "burrowing in?" @hughhewitt gave a good concise definition in an interview with me at @JobCreatorsUSA's Freedom Fighters Summit

Presidents appoint more than 3K people for "political" positions, but there are at least 2.3M federal workers. Most are in ostensibly non-political "career" positions.

Burrowing in involves switching from a "political" to a "career" position.

One of the worst government abuses I've seen happened in the state where I went to college—Michigan.

It truly is Orwellian.

Michigan AG Dana Nessel launched a "Hate Crimes Unit" citing the SPLC, which compares conservative and Christian groups to the KKK.

One of the targeted groups, @aflc_freedomlaw, sued to block Nessel from placing his group under surveillance.

All this took place in 2019. The last move on the case happened in 2021.😲

Now, AFLC will finally have its day in court—in June.

Here's a thread on the case.

🧵1/10

dailysignal.com/2025/04/25/orw…Image The case dates back to February 2019.

The SPLC released its hate map for 2018, and Nessel responded by pledging, "Hate cannot continue to flourish in our state."

"I have seen the appalling, often fatal, results of hate when it is acted upon," she added. "That is why I am establishing a hate-crimes unit in my office—to fight against hate crimes and the many hate groups which have been allowed to proliferate in our state."

That may sound noble, but if you know anything about the SPLC, it should be unnerving, if not downright terrifying.

🚨DEEP STATE TAKES SHAPE

A shocking new poll from @ScottWRasmussen shows just how many D.C.-based bureaucrats who voted for Kamala Harris say they plan to disobey a lawful Trump order if they consider it bad policy.

Yes, people who work for the taxpayer plan to disobey the people's elected president. This is the key definition of the deep state.

🧵1/10

dailysignal.com/2025/04/24/dee…Image RMG Research, Rasmussen's polling firm, identifies federal government managers as federal employees in the DC region who earn at least $75K.

The firm asked this essential question:

"Suppose that President Trump gave an order that was legal but you believed was bad policy. Would you follow the president's order or do what you thought was best?"

THREE QUARTERS—75%—of DC bureaucrats who voted for Kamala Harris said they would "do what I thought was best" rather than follow Trump's order.

Only 16% said they'd do as the people's elected president ordered.😲

🚨'CROSSED THE RUBICON'

The legacy media seems not to have noticed, but the Colorado🏔️ House passed HB 1312 largely along party lines: 36 for, 20 against, and 9 absent.

Colorado Democrats not only held the vote on Sunday night but they also moved to end debate in a way @RepCaldwell says was premature.

Caldwell says Democrats stifled debate, and that would echo what they did last week...

🧵1/6

dailysignal.com/2025/04/07/cro…Image What does the bill do?🤔

“It’s codifying into law that if their ideology confuses your child, and you don’t affirm that delusion, you’re committing child abuse and can lose custody of your child,” Caldwell told me.

“We have now crossed the Rubicon of parental rights with this bill,” he added.

🚨BREAKING

Colorado state Rep. Yara Zokaie doubles down on comparing parental rights groups to the KKK, citing the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Zokaie did so while defending a bill that would define "misgendering" and "deadnaming" as "coercive control" and would require courts to consider it in custody battles.😡

So, parents who don't want to trans their kids should have their kids removed from them, and if these parents team up to form a group, they'll be demonized as hateful like the KKK.

Got it.

🧵1/7

dailysignal.com/2025/04/04/col… Zokaie had first compared parents groups to the KKK in a hearing on Tuesday.

She attempted to explain why parental rights groups had been excluded from discussions on HB 1312, the bill in question.

“A well-stakeholded bill does not need to be discussed with hate groups, and we don’t ask someone passing civil rights legislation to go ask the KKK their opinion,” she quipped.

🚨FOLLOW THE MONEY💰

The Left is freaking out about President Trump ramping down the Department of Education. Dems say Trump has "declared war on America's students," but the move won't impact kids on the ground.

Who will it harm? Unions that bankroll Democrats and other left-leaning NGOs.

Here's a 🧵 explaining what may actually happen and why the Left can't handle it.

1/4

dailysignal.com/2025/03/23/wha…Image WHAT DOES THE DOE DO?🤔

Contrary to the Democrats' suggestions, the Department of Education doesn't actually run schools. Rather, it handles federal funding for schools and enforces certain rules like Title IX.

These functions can arguably be reassigned to other federal agencies, and other actions can be delegated to the states, which actually run public schools in this country.

🚨SURVEILLANCE, BLACKLISTING

Washington state has launched a “Domestic Extremism and Mass Violence Task Force,” which will recommend laws for the Legislature.

The problem? It's stacked with far-left groups, and not just any leftists, but key allies of the SPLC.

Critics warn that it is "self-evident" that this is "very dangerous to people of faith," and they fear that it may result in surveillance and blacklisting of conservatives in the Evergreen State.

Here's why their concerns are valid.

🧵1/8

dailysignal.com/2025/03/06/ver…Image 1⃣WHO'S ON THE TASK FORCE?

The task force includes quite a few notable leftist groups and no conservatives who might provide some important balance.

Notable names include:

1⃣Western States Center, an affiliate of the SPLC, and Kate Bitz, who has endorsed the SPLC "hate map" (more on this in the next post)

2⃣American University's Polarization and Extremism Research and Innovation Lab (PERIL), the director of which also serves on an SPLC "hate" panel

3⃣ADL Center on Extremism, which has demonized critics of gender ideology

4⃣Black Lives Matter Seattle-King County, which carried water for the Paris Commune-style CHAZ insurrection

5⃣Planned Parenthood of Greater Washington and North Idaho.
