On Friday's Mark Levin Show, the Supreme Court majority issued a very messy and problematic decision on tariffs. The fact is the majority agreed on an outcome but not so much on the reasoning for the outcome. It struck tariffs under a single statute, yet created chaos or, actually, left it to the president to decide if and/or how to treat the revenue those tariffs already created for the federal Treasury. The question is not who has the power to tax per se, but a more complicated question about where the separation of powers is. The majority, apparently, chose to duck the question and stick with the indirect tax characterization and focus on a single statute, which is outrageous. Also, Tucker Carlson is an indecent grifter with inexplicable ties to Qatar and an attraction to the Third Reich. He is gravely damaging the Republican Party, the midterm elections, and the Trump administration. Later, Jon Levine of the Washington Free Beacon calls in to explain that NYC Mayor Mamdani is fulfilling his campaign promises by staffing his administration with individuals from radical Islamist and far-left progressive circles, united by a shared hatred of the West and Jews. Mamdani is also pressuring Governor Hochul to impose a wealth tax by threatening massive property tax increases on roughly 3 million homeowners—effectively holding the entire city hostage in a "look what you made me do" tactic.

Senator John Fetterman, a Democrat from Pennsylvania, recently expressed his strong dissent towards the contemporary idea of 'squatters' rights' in a late-week interview, with no clandestine implications, but a clear divergence from his party's standard perspective. Fetterman critically questioned the idea of assigning rights to squatters during his discussion with Jon Levine from the New York Post. In his words, 'Squatters have no rights,' going on to fundamentally ask, 'How can you possibly argue that this is anything but an outright legal violation?' He was keen on making it clear that he does not adhere to the growing 'woke' culture within his political space. Further expressing his standpoint, Fetterman emphasized, 'I am not woke,' delineating a commitment to a more practical course, even if that meant steering against the typical currents of his party. Consequently, he bore testament to a history of rebuffing such movements, tracing back to his mayoral tenure in the quaint Pennsylvanian town of Braddock. His statements unveiled a transparent yet distinct principle, indeed out of sync with prevailing liberal views, but a sincere token of his political perspective. The basis of Fetterman's argument was propelled by the hypothetical scenario he proposed, about a property owner going away for a month-long trip. He took an issue with the paradoxical scenario that if an unknown person broke into the house during this time, they could potentially assert some form of rights to the property. In his view, this level of absurdity was tantamount to a situation where a person's car gets stolen, only for the thief to accrue some entitlements after keeping the car for a month. He reflected on his own disbelief, empathizing with those who might find such incidences incredulous. To him, the instance was not just a mere lack of sense, but also a highly disconcerting factor. He exemplified this by reiterating, 'This is crazy,' equally perplexed and disappointed by the prevailing loopholes being misused. Fetterman went further to criticize the Democratic party's policies, which he perceives as lenient towards criminal activities. His objection was not aimed at causing unrest within party lines, but instead, he echoed a sentiment that may resonate with many. He targeted a significant aspect of crime management, where his party's leniency was linked to unnecessary and tragic incidents such as the death of NYPD Detective Jonathan Diller. The fallout of such a policy, Fetterman argued, resulted in a devastating tragedy that unfolded in late March in Queens. Detective Jonathan Diller, a devoted husband, father, and an asset to the law enforcement with three years of committed service on the force, met an untimely demise during a routine traffic stop. While undertaking normal policing duties, Detective Diller was fired upon by the passenger of a pulled-over car, leading to grievous injuries. Fetterman connected this heartbreaking incident directly to the consequences of soft-on-crime policies, stressing on the need for reforms in this arena. The alleged shooter was identified as 34-year-old Guy Rivera, who was seated in the passenger section of the car when the fatal incident unfolded. Rivera didn't have a crime-free past, boasting 21 previous encounters with the law. This tragic event reignited the discourse on crime policies, as Rivera was just released from prison the previous year. Rivera's crime history is well-recorded, with former sentence for criminal possession of a controlled substance that resulted in him serving a five-year term until his release in 2021. He also served prison time from 2011 to 2014 for a first-degree assault charge. Fetterman used Rivera's extensive crime history as a case to critique the current crime policy. Fetterman's stance resonated with those pushing for stricter punishments for heinous crimes. Referring to Detective Diller's alleged killer, Fetterman believed that if convicted, the convict 'should spend the rest of his life and in prison, and never have an opportunity to get out.' His idea goes beyond simple punitive measures, hinting towards rehabilitation through indefinite confinement. Overall, Senator John Fetterman's recent candid interview has triggered significant food for thought among a variety of demographics. His clear stance against squatter's rights and a refreshing deviance from party rhetoric on crime policies underlines the nuances within the broader Democratic party. Indeed, Fetterman's views may not echo across the entire party. However, it provides valuable insights into the spectrum of opinions within any political organization, revealing the existence of different shades of a perceived color. Brexit his conservative-leaning stance with a gentle edge, Fetterman's perspectives put forth an intriguing blend of voices within the Democratic party. From the deconstruction of ‘squatter's rights,' to the endorsement for harsher crime penalities, Fetterman juxtaposes an alternative vision within his Democrat identity. It's an account that neither completely disowns party perspectives, nor complies fully with them, but one that hints at the importance of constructive criticism and diverse discourses in furthering effective legal reforms.
