3/21 - THE DAILY WIRE - The Federal Agency Where Employees Lived ‘Like Reigning Kings’
One of the seven small federal agencies that President Donald Trump ordered downsized or eliminated on Friday was rife with corruption, with its employees hiring friends and relatives, commissioning paintings of themselves, and using government credit cards to indulge in constant luxuries.
The Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service (FMCS) occupied a nine-story office tower on D.C.’s K Street for only 60 employees, many of whom actually worked from home, prior to the pandemic. Its managers had luxury suites with full bathrooms; one manager would often be “in the shower” when she was needed, while another used her bathroom as a cigarette lounge. FMCS recorded its director as being on a years-long business trip to D.C. so he could have all of his meals and living expenses covered by taxpayers, simply for showing up to the office.
...
FMCS seemed, quite clearly, to exist for the benefit of those on its payroll, and not much else. One employee told me: “Let me give you the honest truth: A lot of FMCS employees don’t do a hell of a lot, including myself. Personally, the reason that I’ve stayed is that I just don’t feel like working that hard, plus the location on K Street is great, plus we all have these oversized offices with windows, plus management doesn’t seem to care if we stay out at lunch a long time. Can you blame me?”
“Recreation and reception fund.”
Top FMCS official George Cohen used a “recreation and reception fund” to order champagne and $200 coasters for his office, and to purchase artwork painted by his wife. The tiny agency commissioned paintings of its top employees — as one employee told me, “like they were reigning kings or something…I’ve never seen anything like it before.” It spent $2,402 retouching the portrait of someone who briefly held the top job in an acting capacity.
FMCS employees “unblocked” their government credit cards to turn off typical abuse protections, then used them to apparently fund personal expenses and simply bill anything they’d like to the government. One employee leased a BMW; another (IT director James Donnen) billed the government for his wife’s cell phone, cable TV at both his home and his vacation home, and even his subscription to USA Today.
Employee Dan W. Funkhouser used his FMCS card to rent a storage unit near his home in rural Virginia, two hours from the office he supposedly worked at, which was used to store personal possessions such as a photo album of his dog, Buster. Funkhouser also spent $18,000 at a jewelry store near his house, and “destroyed all purchase card records upon leaving the agency,” an audit said.
When Charles Burton retired from FMCS, he incorporated an LLC to which another FMCS employee paid $85,000 using his purchase card, listing it as a “Call Center Service,” even though the company had neither a website nor a working phone.
...
One purchase was for $30,000 on trinkets marking employees’ anniversaries. The agency’s office was absurdly oversized, but it refused to move. It hired a consultant for a “Hallway Improvement Project” to decorate. It had an in-house gym for employees, and purchased a $1,000 TV for the gym, a $3,867 ice-maker, and a $560 stereo.
...
All expenses paid lifestyle ...
Scot Beckenbaugh, a top agency official, was paid $174,000 a year, but that wasn’t enough: He had his “duty station” listed as Iowa so that he could have all of his living expenses and food paid for in D.C., where he lived and worked, as if he was on a six-year-long business trip. When an employee raised the issue to an agency lawyer, the lawyer told him he “should not raise these issues … it would open a can of worms.”
...
The agency had, inexplicably, an office in Honolulu.
It funded constant travel of its employees to exotic locales, on the pretext that it was drumming up business for the federal agency — an admission that there was little demand for the agency’s existence.
In one month, Beck traveled to Italy and Switzerland, where she conducted a business meeting — over video chat. Then she went to Tunisia and an island off the coast of Georgia. She flew first class and forced the agency to reimburse her for mileage when she drove to her vacation home in Maine.

3/20 - NEWSWEEK - CBP is Seizing Eggs [or... Why Did the Chicken Cross the Border?]
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has seized more egg products from United States borders this year than it has seized pounds of fentanyl.
Statistics from the CBP website show that so far in 2025, the agency has seized 5,938 egg products and 1,631 pounds of fentanyl coming into the US.
Newsweek could not make an exact one-to-one comparison as CBP measures eggs by number of products and fentanyl by weight.
A CBP spokesperson told Newsweek on Monday: "Nationally we can report that there has been a 36% increase in eggs being detained at ports of entry this fiscal year (October 2024 to February 2025) when compared to the same time last fiscal year (October 2023 – February 2024)."
CBP seizes egg products from overseas due to concerns around avian influenza (bird flu) and Virulent Newcastle disease (ND).
In a February press release, CBP officers in Texas said that: "Travelers need to be aware that raw egg imports from Mexico are prohibited. Since January area CBP officers have encountered more than 90 people attempting to import raw eggs from Mexico."

3/18 - RED STATE - WH Press Secretary to French Politician Wanting Statue of Liberty Back
As we reported earlier, a French European Parliament member, Raphael Glucksmann, who is part of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats, took a nasty shot at the United States.
He quipped about wanting the Statue of Liberty back.
"Give us back the Statue of Liberty. We’re going to say to the Americans who have chosen to side with the tyrants, to the Americans who fired researchers for demanding scientific freedom: 'Give us back the Statue of Liberty. We gave it to you as a gift, but apparently you despise it. So it will be just fine here at home.'"
Um, where was this guy when there were people being penalized for demanding scientific freedom five years ago under COVID? Was this guy speaking up then? Under President Donald Trump, they're actually eliminating that kind of censorship.
I'm not sure what he's talking about with the "scientific freedom" nonsense. But does Glucksmann think people getting fired because they're cutting the government is bad? That might explain why Europe is such a mess. If you're going to cut the debt and the deficit, you have to take action to make the government leaner and cut fraud, waste, and abuse.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt was asked about this crack from Glucksmann by Fox News' Peter Doocy during the White House press briefing on Monday. He asked if President Donald Trump was going to "send the Statue of Liberty back." Leavitt had a truly epic response.
"Absolutely not," she firmly replied.
"And my advice to that unnamed low-level French politician would be to remind them that it's only because of the United States of America that the French are not speaking German right now -- they should be very grateful to our great country."

3/17 - ASK AI - I asked... What Are The Effects of Oxytocin and Cultural Behavior
Oxytocin (OXT) has significant effects on social behavior, particularly in the context of cultural norms and intergroup dynamics. Research indicates that OXT influences how individuals engage in social comparisons and interact with others based on group membership. This modulation is particularly evident in competitive intergroup situations, where OXT can enhance in-group favoritism while simultaneously affecting perceptions and behaviors toward out-group members.
Step 1: Understanding Oxytocin’s Role
Oxytocin is a neuropeptide produced in the hypothalamus that plays a crucial role
in various social processes, including bonding, trust, and emotional regulation.
It has been shown to enhance empathetic responses and promote prosocial behaviors
within groups. For instance, studies have demonstrated that OXT administration
increases positive attitudes toward in-group members while fostering defensive or
less cooperative attitudes toward out-group members.
Step 2: Cultural Contexts of Social Behavior
Cultural norms significantly shape how individuals express their emotions and seek
social support. In cultures like the United States, seeking emotional support during
distress is normative; however, this behavior may be less common or even discouraged
in other cultures, such as Korean culture. This cultural backdrop influences how
genetic factors, such as variations in the oxytocin receptor gene (OXTR), manifest
behaviorally.
Step 3: Interaction Between Oxytocin and Culture
Research has shown that the behavioral expression of OXTR genotypes can vary depending
on cultural contexts. For example, individuals with certain genotypes may exhibit
heightened sensitivity to cultural norms regarding emotional support seeking when
under psychological distress. In American participants experiencing high distress,
those with the G allele of OXTR were more likely to seek emotional support compared
to those with the A allele. Conversely, Korean participants did not show significant
differences based on genotype when it came to seeking emotional support due to cultural
norms discouraging this behavior.
Step 4: Implications for Intergroup Dynamics
In intergroup contexts, OXT appears to facilitate social comparisons differently
based on group membership. Studies indicate that individuals treated with OXT are
more likely to accept relatively favorable outcomes when interacting with out-group
members compared to in-group members during competitive tasks. This suggests that
OXT enhances sensitivity to social cues related to competition and comparison between
groups.
Conclusion
The interplay between oxytocin and cultural behavior highlights how biological factors
can influence social interactions across different cultural contexts. Oxytocin not
only affects individual behaviors but also modulates responses based on cultural
norms surrounding relationships and emotional expression. Understanding these dynamics
can provide insights into how genetic predispositions interact with environmental
factors to shape human behavior.

3/16 - NATIONAL LEGAL AND POLICY CENTER - IRS Complaint Filed Against Ashley Biden
Ms. Biden failed to report the receipt of a grant of $250,000 made in 2023 by the Archewell Foundation, founded by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. In addition, there are other reporting violations by Ms. Biden, including failing to identify all of the Board of Directors of her nonprofit.
This large contribution raised eyebrows because of the political implications of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s attempt to ingratiate themselves with President Biden and his family.6 [sic] But more importantly, the $250,000 cash grant made in 2023 was not reported on Ashley Biden’s group’s 2023 Form 990, which only reported receiving a total of $170,296 that year. A full audit of Ashley Biden’s group is warranted to determine where the $250,000 cash grant was deposited and its disposition.
...
The IRS must conduct a full investigation and audit of Women’s Wellness Spa(ce), including deposing Ashley Biden, to find out what happened to the $250,000 given to Ms. Biden’s group from the Archewell Foundation and to assess appropriate civil and criminal penalties because Ms. Biden submitted and signed the Form 990 under penalty of perjury.

3/15 - Who is Mahmoud Khalil?
CNN - Palestinian activist detained by ICE over Columbia University protests
President Donald Trump has likened Mahmoud Khalil to a terrorist sympathizer. Others portray him as a Palestinian activist, singled out for his outspoken support for his own people.
But long before he was arrested by federal agents Saturday night, Khalil told CNN he felt called to advocate for the liberation of both the Palestinian and Jewish people as a refugee.
“As a Palestinian student, I believe that the liberation of the Palestinian people and
the Jewish people are intertwined and go hand-by-hand and you cannot achieve one without
the other,” he told CNN last spring when he was one of the negotiators representing
student demonstrators during talks with Columbia University’s administration.

President Trump is working to deport Mahmoud Khalil, a Columbia graduate student who has been an organizer of pro-Hamas rallies and who has been committing crimes, recruiting others to commit crimes, and illegally supporting a terrorist organization as an alien.
Immigration law is explicit about the last: you may not have, may not now, nor may you at any point as a visa or green card holder support terrorists. It is black letter law.
The Left is going crazy, because, well, the Left. If it is bad, they support it.

3/14 - SSA Office of the Inspector General - $72B Improperly Paid by SSA; $23B Unrecovered
August 19, 2024
Through several audits, Social Security Administration’s Office of the Inspector General made dozens of recommendations for the Agency to prevent improper payments before they occur as well as to detect and correct existing improper payments. However, to date, many of those recommendations remain unimplemented, leading to continued improper payments.
...
From FYs 2015 through 2022, SSA estimates it made nearly $72 billion in improper payments, most of which were overpayments. While this is less than 1 percent of the total benefits paid during that period, at the end of FY 2023, SSA had an uncollected overpayment balance of $23 billion.

3/13 - U.S. Dept. of HHS - What Is In Our Food?
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration are committed to promoting radical transparency to make sure all Americans know what is in their food.
Today, as part of this commitment, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is directing the acting FDA commissioner to take steps to explore potential rulemaking to revise its Substances Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) Final Rule and related guidance to eliminate the self-affirmed GRAS pathway. This will enhance the FDA’s oversight of ingredients considered to be GRAS and bring transparency to American consumers.
[Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) is a United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) designation that a chemical or substance added to food is considered safe by experts under the conditions of its intended use. An ingredient with a GRAS designation is exempted from the usual Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA) food additive tolerance requirements. - WIKIPEDIA]
“For far too long, ingredient manufacturers and sponsors have exploited a loophole that has allowed new ingredients and chemicals, often with unknown safety data, to be introduced into the U.S. food supply without notification to the FDA or the public,” said Secretary Kennedy. “Eliminating this loophole will provide transparency to consumers, help get our nation’s food supply back on track by ensuring that ingredients being introduced into foods are safe, and ultimately Make America Healthy Again.”

3/13 - RASMUSSEN - 73% Favor Making English Official Language
Voters overwhelmingly favor legislation to make English the official language of the United States, following President Donald Trump’s recent executive order.
A new national telephone and online survey by Rasmussen Reports and ProEnglish finds that 73% of Likely U.S. Voters would support a law that made English the official language of the U.S. government, including 54% who would Strongly Support such a law. Only 21% disagree, with 10% Strongly Opposed to making English the official language.
Trump’s executive order last week declared English the official language and repealed Executive Order 13166, issued by President Bill Clinton nearly 25 years ago. “The Clinton order discouraged assimilation of legal immigrants by mandating that that the federal government and its agencies provide expensive translation services in any foreign language," said Stephanie White, acting executive director of Washington-based ProEnglish. "These additional translation costs have run into billions of dollars since 2001. But this ends now.”
Sixty-five percent (65%) of voters approve of Trump’s executive order, including 48% who Strongly Approve. Just 28% disapprove, including 18% who Strongly Disapprove.

Secret Service agents shot a man during an overnight "armed confrontation" near the White House on Saturday. The incident took place on the west side of the Eisenhower Executive Office Building after local police identified the individual as a "suicidal person" reportedly traveling from Indiana. When officers approached him, the man pulled out a firearm, prompting Secret Service agents to open fire in response. The man was rushed to the hospital, and his condition is unknown. It was also reported that no Secret Service agents were injured during the incident.
Secret Service personnel later located the individual’s vehicle and spotted a person on foot who matched the description. Authorities have not yet released the man's identity or further details, but the situation has raised concerns about security protocols in the area.

3/8 - NEW YORK TIMES - ActBlue Faces Internal Chaos
At least seven senior officials have left the group, setting off deep concerns about its future as it confronts scrutiny from congressional Republicans.
ActBlue, the online fund-raising organization that powers Democratic candidates, has plunged into turmoil, with at least seven senior officials resigning late last month and a remaining lawyer suggesting he faced internal retaliation.
The departures from ActBlue, which helps raise money for Democrats running for office at all levels of government, come as the group is under investigation by congressional Republicans. They have advanced legislation that some Democrats warn could be used to debilitate what is the party’s leading fund-raising operation.
The exodus has set off deep concerns about ActBlue’s future. Last week, two unions representing the group’s workers sent a blistering letter to ActBlue’s board of directors that listed the seven officials who had left. The letter described an “alarming pattern” of departures that was “eroding our confidence in the stability of the organization.”

3/8 - TOWNHALL - Kash Patel and the FBI Arrest Three For Treason
The FBI has arrested three individuals on charges of treason, marking a significant development in an ongoing investigation under the agency’s new director, Kash Patel. The arrests were announced on Friday, just two weeks after Patel took office. Authorities have yet to disclose the full details of the case, but sources confirm that the suspects allegedly betrayed the nation and attempted to sell government secrets to China.
The U.S. Department of Justice said that two active-duty U.S. Army soldiers, Jian Zhao and Li Tian, and a veteran, Ruoyu Duan, were in the process of attempting to sell national defense intelligence to Chinese agents. Zhao and Tian were stationed at Joint Base Lewis-McChord.
In addition to treason charges, Tian and Duan face counts of bribery and theft of government property. Meanwhile, Zhao faces a charge of conspiracy to transmit national defense information to someone not authorized to have it.

3/7 - THE HIGHWIRE - Investigation of $20B to Gubment Officials' "Private" Fund
EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin announced an investigation into the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF), a $20 billion contract signed as part of the Inflation Reduction Act in 2022. Zeldin wrote a letter to the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) providing several potential conflicts of interest within the GGRF.
“Recent findings reveal a pattern of reckless financial management, blatant conflicts of interest, astonishing sums of tax dollars awarded to unqualified recipients, and severe deficiencies in regulatory oversight under the prior administration,” Zeldin wrote.
An undercover video by Project Veritas in which an EPA official in the Biden administration said they were “tossing gold bars off the Titanic” was mentioned. President Trump has signed an executive order to create the Department of Government Efficiency and an order for agency heads to review existing contracts. As part of that effort, Zeldin has been posting about contracts that they have cut.
Zeldin wrote, “A large private-sector financial institution was used as an external financial agent, holding $20 billion in taxpayer dollars – an unprecedented arrangement for EPA. Only eight prime recipients controlled all $20 billion, acting as pass-through entities to sub-recipients – many of which were also structured as pass-throughs, raising serious concerns about transparency and accountability.”
The letter continues:
- “Jahi Wise, the former director of the GGRF personally oversaw a $5 billion grant to his previous employer, the Coalition for Green Capital, without recusing himself.
- “A $2 billion grant was awarded to Power Forward Communities, a new nonprofit with ties to Stacey Abrams, despite reporting only $100 in total revenue in 2023.”
- “Young, Gifted and Green was awarded $20 million even though its CEO applied for funding while serving on the White House Environmental Justice Advisory Council.”
