DEMOCRATS: They remind me of captive chimpanzees who throw feces at visitors, staff, and each other because they are frustrated, annoyed, angry, or bored.

GAS PRICES: When gas prices spiked under Biden, the media said it wasn’t POTUS’ fault, because gas prices are “set globally.” They called it “Putin’s price hike.”

When prices went down under Trump, they said POTUS “doesn’t deserve credit” because presidents “can’t control gas prices.“

Now that prices are up because of Trump’s war on Iran, the media is happy to blame him.

IRAN: On Thursday, the government executed three young men for “waging war against God.” What they actually did was participate in the widespread pro-democracy protests. One of the three was Saleh Mohammadi, a member of Iran’s national wrestling team. He turned 19 last week.

TEXAS: [2:49] – On Tuesday, Kyle Najm Chris (39) entered Zwink Elementary School in Klein, TX, carrying a gun and taser and wearing military tactical gear. Chris is a naturalized citizen from Iraq who changed his name from Muhi Mohanad Nahm to “Kyle Nahm Chris” possibly as an homage to SEAL sniper, Chris Kyle. On LinkedIn, he listed himself as a private investigator/security officer named “Chris Muhi.”

On Tuesday, Chris slipped through the first set of doors by following someone who either held them open or failed to ensure they closed. Fortunately, the school’s second set of security doors blocked him from entering the hallways and approaching any school children.

After entering the school, he reportedly asked the school’s secretary if there was an armed officer on campus. When asked to identify himself, he refused to do so and, when he was told there was an armed officer on campus, he left the school and drove away in a dark blue Dodge Charger.

Chris has no personal connection to Zwink or any other school in Klein. He was arrested and is currently out on bond, facing a felony charge of possession of a prohibited weapon.

FACT: If passed, the law would apply only to people who are registering to vote, either for the first time or because they have moved, changed their name, or changed their party affiliation. [The bill refers only to “application[s] to register to vote.” There is no mention of forcing anyone to renew or re-register.]

Democrat Senator Duckworth also lied when she tweeted, “Under the SAVE Act, you cannot use your driver’s license to register to vote. Republicans want you to buy a passport instead. If you can afford one. This is a modern-day poll tax.”

FACT: If passed, the law would require each state to create a means by which those who cannot provide documentary proof of United States citizenship to sign an attestation under penalty of perjury that the applicant is a citizen. [Page 12, Line 20ff]

AMERICAN HISTORY: On March 20, 1854, the Republican Party of the United States was officially founded in Ripon, Wisconsin, as a direct response to the Kansas-Nebraska Act—a divisive law that threatened to extend slavery into new territories. As anti-slavery sentiment intensified, former Whigs, Free Soilers, and disaffected Democrats coalesced into a new political movement dedicated to preventing the spread of slavery.

ARKANSAS: Last week, Governor Sanders was having lunch with two other moms at The Croissanterie restaurant in Little Rock, Arkansas.

Persecutory delusion (aka, paranoid delusion): A fixed, false belief that others intend to harm you, even when there’s clear evidence to the contrary. In many cases, people with persecutory delusions believe harm could come through various means, including psychological or “invisible” ones like others’ malicious thoughts, intentions, curses, psychic attacks, or mental influence.

LENTEN MEDITATION: “Albert Göring was the younger brother of Hermann Göring, one of the most powerful figures in Nazi Germany, but Albert took a radically different path. Born into the same influential Bavarian family, he grew up watching his brother rise within the Nazi hierarchy while he himself rejected the regime’s ideology.

“During the 1930s and throughout World War II, Albert quietly used his family name and connections to help Jews, political dissidents, and other persecuted people escape arrest, secure forged documents, or flee the country.

“He even intervened directly at factories and offices, demanding the release of forced laborers by signing orders with the Göring name, knowing officials would obey out of fear of his brother.

“After the war, Albert’s moral courage was overshadowed by the infamy of his surname. Despite testimonies from survivors he had saved, he was detained and interrogated by Allied authorities who struggled to believe a Göring could have opposed Nazism.

“Though eventually cleared, he returned to a Germany that wanted nothing to do with the relatives of high-ranking Nazis. He lived the rest of his life in obscurity, working modest jobs and dying in 1966 without public recognition.

“Only decades later did historians begin to uncover the extent of his humanitarian efforts, revealing a man who risked everything to defy his own family and the regime they served.”

SEPARATION of CHURCH and STATE? After New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani decided to proudly celebrate iftar inside city hall, conservatives expressed outrage over a religious ritual being performed on government property.

Our junior senator, Kirsten Gillibrand, huffily described these concerns as “Islamaphobia”, to which Jason Howerton responded, “3 Islamic terror attacks in 2 weeks and Democrats’ biggest concern is ‘Islamophobia.’ The literal definition of toxic empathy.”

I think Greg Strange said it best – “There’s no such thing as ‘Islamophobia.’ A phobia, by definition, is an irrational fear, whereas the fear of Islam is as coldly rational as the Second Law of Thermodynamics or the quadratic equation.”

Mamdani’s snarky response to concerns was, “Let there be as much outrage from politicians in Washington when kids go hungry as there is when I break bread with New Yorkers.”

I guess that means he’ll be celebrating seder meals with Jewish New Yorkers this coming April 1 and 2?

WASHINGTON: Last November, a bunch of Seattle baristas organized themselves into a barristas’ union and went on strike, demanding better pay and working conditions. When they ran out of money and decided they wanted to come back to work, they found out Starbucks was closing their store and was not offering any of them the opportunity to transfer to another store.

Maybe they can organize themselves into a baristas’ collective and operate their own shop. I mean … the location is available and already set up for coffee, right? And they obviously think they know better than Starbucks how to run a business. It would be sweet revenge if they succeeded in making a go of it, while providing better pay and working conditions than Starbucks did. And if they can’t because, you know, running a business is hard, maybe they would grow up and learn some important life lessons.

WOLF in SHEEP’S CLOTHING: CLICK https://x.com/Protestia/status/2034213528551178740 [2:21] to hear an Episcopal pastor claim that Jesus was flirting with the Samaritan woman at the well, because “living water” was supposedly “a first century euphemism for semen.”

I asked Grok, “Is there any evidence that ‘living water’ was a ‘first century euphemism for semen’?”

Grok replied, “No, there is no credible historical, linguistic, or scholarly evidence. The claim is a modern fringe interpretation, often tied to sensational sermons, esoteric/New Age teachings, or highly speculative readings of John 4 (the Samaritan woman at the well).”

This jackass minister’s interpretation doesn’t even make sense in context, but I guess that doesn’t matter if your congregation doesn’t bother to read the Bible. I agree with the commenters on the video who said things like, “This guy’s computer needs to be checked for bad things.”

AMERICAN HISTORY: On March 18, 1942, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed an executive order creating the War Relocation Authority to manage the enforced internment of Japanese-Americans internment camps during World War II. About two-thirds of those interned were U.S. citizens.

Graphic: 1942 editorial propaganda cartoon in the New York newspaper PM by Dr. Seuss depicting Japanese Americans in California, Oregon, and Washington—states with the largest population of Japanese Americans—as prepared to conduct sabotage against the U.S.

Theodor “Dr. Seuss” Geisel, who published many patriotic cartoons during the War, supported internment, saying: “Right now, when the Japs are planting their hatchets in our skulls, it seems like a hell of a time for us to smile and warble: “Brothers!” It is a rather flabby battle cry. If we want to win, we’ve got to kill Japs, whether it depresses John Haynes Holmes or not. We can get palsy-walsy afterward with those that are left.“

LENTEN MEDITATION: “To help us distinguish between right and wrong, God has given us a conscience that serves as a kind of spiritual radar. The condition you keep it in will determine how much you can trust it.

“The sacred conscience is one that has been kept spotless through confession of sin (1 John 1:9) and reflects a desire to know and follow God’s will. Once we are cleansed, we can live without guilt, walking openly and transparently. When we do sin, we know immediately that we need to get right with God.

“The struggling conscience is clogged with rules and regulations, and its spirit of legalism makes us critical of our performance. Having created our own system of “should, ought, and must,” we use it to determine right or wrong. In doing so, we show a lack of understanding about God’s righteousness, which can never be replaced with self-righteousness (Philippians 3:8-10).

“The soiled conscience is stained from harboring sin. If we consistently choose our way over God’s, we lose sight of what’s beautiful and true.

“The seared conscience is insensitive to sin. When we resist and ignore its warnings, it will become numb and unresponsive.

“Ask God to show you how well your conscience is operating, and where there’s room for improvement, allow Him to restore it.”

GRAMMY NOTES: Once upon a time, my brother hosted groups of students from China who always asked to see a real American grocery store. When they saw how much good quality food there was, they would insist that he had taken them to one of the stores the government maintains to impress foreigners.

They’d buy so much stuff, they often had a hard time getting it all on to the plane home.

VENEZUELA: On March 14, 2026, the U.S. Embassy in Venezuela raised its flag, seven years to the day since officials lowered it for the final time after the U.S. broke off relations with Venezuela. The flag-raising was largely symbolic, as the embassy building needs renovations.

DAILY PRAYER: Dear Father in Heaven, Be our refuge this Saturday and grant us the rest we need. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

1A: Earlier this week, the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit handed down a historic ruling when it decided a Texas schoolteacher does have the constitutional right to pray on school grounds and that her principal clearly violated established law when he ordered her to stop.

The road to Barber v. Rounds began in September 2023, when teacher Staci Barber’s principal, Bryan Scott Rounds, announced that teachers were not allowed to pray at the flag pole outside Cardiff Junior High in the Katy Independent School District in Texas.

For years, school administrators around the nation have treated any visible expression of religion by a school employee as constitutionally suspect. This ruling makes clear they have been wrong.

JAMES THE LESS: Season 3, Episode 6: “James the Last” (series finale) [9:36].

LENTEN MEDITATION: [7:05] – In 1979, my fiancé and I attended an Engaged Encounter week-end. At the first gathering, there were 18 couples; we were a bit late, so were seated at the end of the back row. For an ice breaker, the presenters had each couple stand and introduce each other, then say how they had met.

Couple after couple said, “We met in a bar.” After 17 straight “We met in a bar” announcements, the anticipation was palpable. We, the last couple, stood up. I introduced my fiancé and could hear a pin drop as I paused before saying, “We met in church.” Everybody lost it. LOLOLOL

We are now celebrating our 47th year together as a Catholic couple, so thankful to God for our three beautiful daughters, the amazing men they married, and the gorgeous grandkids they have gifted us. To my mind, “met in church” is the best possible beginning for a lifetime of happiness.

MEDIA: “Staggering” … “More than 140 US troops have been wounded in the Iran war, the Pentagon has confirmed. “ Only eight of the injuries has been considered “severe”; 108 of the wounded have already returned to duty.

On January 8 and 9, 2026, the Iranian regime murdered more than 30,000 protesters. The Daily Mail reported on this, but I guess they forgot.

PENNSYLVANIA: Gov Josh “No Kings” Shapiro’s neighbor is accusing him of stealing land in an “outrageous abuse of power.” Democrat (“Trump’s border wall is evil”) Josh wants to build a security barrier (aka, border wall) around his property. The problem is … part of his big, beautiful wall is on his neighbor’s property.

Last year, Shapiro and the owners failed to negotiate a mutually agreeable plan for Shapiro to either buy or lease the land, so on or about August 29, 2025, counsel for the Shapiros stated that the Shapiros would be taking “alternative actions” to obtain the property. And by “alternative actions”, the governor meant “steal by claiming squatters rights.”

Shapiro has not only planted arborvitae (fast-growing evergreen trees commonly used for privacy hedges) on the Mock property without permission, over the Mocks’ express objections, but also has used taxpayer resources to station State Police officers on the land to prevent the Mocks from using it.

WASHINGTON: Pennsylvania’s Democrat governor isn’t the only one who thinks theft is cool. Seattle’s socialist Mayor Katie Wilson is claiming she will unilaterally BAN grocery stores from closing down in her city. If a privately owned grocery business tries to leave town due to theft, taxes, or safety concerns, Wilson and her commie allies allies in the state legislature want to use Eminent Domain to seize the company’s properties and turn them into government-run shops.
