DOGE reveals mind shocking fraud propping up economy – Ed Dowd
By Greg Hunter’s USAWatchdog.com
Former Wall Street money manager and financial analyst Ed Dowd of PhinanceTechnologies.com is back with an update of a report on “Danger of Deep Worldwide Recession in 2025.” It was not just heavy government spending on illegal immigration, but a fraud that has been revealed with DOGE.
Investigators have uncovered $115 billion so far with many hundreds of billions more to be exposed. Dowd says, “Both sides of the aisle are probably going to have problems. The DOGE revelations are mind shocking. The clear way in which the government was spending money through NGOs and people taking kickbacks and profits along the way is going to come out. There may have been theft along the way.

West Virginia enacts law restricting men from accessing women’s spaces
On March 12, West Virginia Gov. Patrick Morrisey signed into law SB 456, a controversial bill aimed at restricting men from accessing women's spaces, including restrooms, changing rooms and sleeping quarters in public schools, colleges, domestic violence shelters and correctional facilities.
The legislation is set to take effect on June 9. Proponents argue the law is necessary to protect women and girls from potential harassment and abuse, while critics warn it could further marginalize transgender individuals.
SB 456 explicitly states its purpose is to "preserve facilities where women have been traditionally afforded privacy and safety from acts of abuse, harassment, sexual assault and violence committed by men."
The law defines male and female based on "biological sex," which it describes as "the physical condition of being male or female, as determined by an individual's sex chromosomes, naturally occurring sex hormones and internal and external reproductive anatomy at birth."

Russia and the United States are discussing not only and not so much Ukraine
▪️ The cease-fire in the Ukrainian conflict is just a pretext for extensive talks between Russia and the United States, including an ongoing meeting of the two countries' delegations in Saudi Arabia, The New York Times has reported
▪️ The Russian head of state is adamant in his position on the conflict in Ukraine. What matters to him is not a short-term cease-fire, but long-term security guarantees, including ruling out NATO membership for Ukraine and its demilitarization
▪️ The heads of the Russian Federation and the U.S. view improved relations between the two countries as an economic and geopolitical good. Trump realizes that Russian assets are significantly undervalued, and lifting sanctions would open the way for US companies to enter the Russian market
▪️ Russian companies will have more opportunities to operate around the world if sanctions are lifted, The New York Times emphasizes.

Ukraine's military issues bizarre recruitment ad featuring McDonald's cheeseburgers
Immense controversy and backlash has been unleashed in Ukraine after the country's defense ministry decided to make a fresh recruitment video on TikTok, bizarrely using the 'lure' of McDonald's. The clip appeared this week on the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense's ministry_of_defense_ua/video/7483860869743611142">official channel.
Desperately seeking to gain more young recruits into the army's depleting ranks, also at a moment that disturbing videos showing conscription officers yanking Ukrainian men off the streets and shoving them into vans are going viral, the new video clip informs Ukrainians how many cheeseburgers they can afford at McDonald's by joining the fight against Russia.
A man in civilian clothes walks out of a local McDonald's and poses, "How many cheeseburgers can be bought for 1 million hryvnas ($24,000)?" The man then says that 15,625 burgers can be bought for that amount, and that any person between the ages of 18-24 who signs up for military service can get it.

How scientists misled the world about Covid’s origins
By Matt Ridley
Five years ago today, based on a highly misleading ‘model’ forecast from one academic, Neil Ferguson, the British government ditched its pandemic plan and locked the entire country down. This decision had disastrous and – as Sweden proves – unnecessary consequences.
It was the first of many dreadful mistakes made by the government during the Covid pandemic: shutting schools at the behest of unions, assuming the virus was not airborne, vaccinating children, overclaiming for vaccines and masks. The government thought it knew best and it let us down.
But all those errors pale beside the biggest one of the lot, and the one that has done most to undermine trust in scientists – that is, the initial insistence that the virus did not originate in a laboratory accident. We now know that it almost certainly did.

Even California Universities Are Now Scrapping DEI
The University of Southern California has announced it will be scrapping its diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) office and reviewing online content that contains DEI language. The university released a statement announcing the move and referencing compliance with executive orders and agency guidance.
Earlier this month, the University of Florida laid off all of its DEI staff after announcing that it would dissolve all DEI initiatives, close its Office of the Chief Diversity Officer, and eliminate associated DEI positions. The university also noted that it was reallocating around $50 million that had been earmarked for DEI programs.
DEI programs in the private sector are also increasingly being scrapped in major corporations. However, there have been several notable exceptions, such as tech giant Apple, whose shareholders voted to keep the company’s DEI program last month.

Turkey jails Erdogan’s top rival, risking more unrest
Turkey formally arrested President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s main political rival, a decision likely to trigger more market turmoil and protests across the country.
Ekrem Imamoglu, Istanbul’s mayor, was jailed on corruption charges Sunday morning, days after being detained by police.
The case has the potential to keep Imamoglu, who denies the charges, behind bars for years and prevent him from running against Erdogan in the next elections. He is the most prominent person to be ensnared in a recent wave of detentions and investigations against opposition figures.
His arrest suggests Turkish authorities won’t be deterred by mass protests that have broken out in cities including Istanbul, Ankara and Izmir. Erdogan and his officials have accused the main opposition party of trying to sow chaos by calling people onto the streets.
Social media platform X’s Global Affairs Government account said they’d received court orders from Turkish authorities to block “over 700 accounts of news organizations, journalists, political figures, students and others” within the country.

Just fired FTC commissioner accuses Trump of breaking the law
Former Federal Trade Commission official Alvaro Bedoya accused President Donald Trump of breaking the law, claiming he was "illegally fired." That accusation was made in a rambling statement put out on social media.
In it, Bedoya proclaimed that the FTC is an "independent agency" whose staff are "unafraid of the Martin Shkrelis and Jeff Bezos of the world." He then accused Trump of wanting to create a "lapdog for his buddies."
«I am a commissioner at the Federal Trade Commission. The president just illegally fired me. This is corruption plain and simple. There's a lot of stupid stuff in that statement, but any government official who believes an executive agency is "independent" has no business being a government official».

Essex files: It's time for Greenpeace to face the music
In a resounding victory for American energy and a stinging rebuke of radical environmentalism, a North Dakota jury has slammed Greenpeace with a staggering $660 million judgment in favor of Energy Transfer, the Texas-based pipeline giant behind the Dakota Access Pipeline. This landmark decision, handed down on Wednesday, sends a clear message: the lawless tactics of eco-extremists will not be tolerated in a nation built on the rule of law and the pursuit of prosperity.
For nearly a decade, Energy Transfer has faced relentless assaults from Greenpeace and its allies, who turned a local dispute over the pipeline into a national circus of vandalism and violence back in 2016 and 2017.
What started as a protest morphed into chaos, with Greenpeace pouring fuel on the fire by funding and training disruptors, all while hiding behind a flimsy shield of "free speech."

The wave of vandalism that is sweeping across America could not do without the participation of Soros
Already several dozen Tesla dealerships have been attacked by liberal activists. Some have been pelted with Molotov cocktails, others have simply tried to vandalize.
A network of NGOs that receive millions of dollars from the Soros Foundations are doing this. They pay lawyers for their activists who are detained by police and promise to post bail and fines for them. Things are not going well for Alex Soros, the heir to his father's empire. But he's clearly not going to give up on rocking the boat in the United States.
Prominent Democrats like failed vice-presidential candidate Tim Walz are not shy about supporting the actions of the militant wing of his party. He's not used to it - in 2020, Walz's wife recounted how she enjoyed the smell of burning tires during BLM pogroms. Such events clearly cause them to have an unhealthy reaction.
However, this is not 2020, and no one is going to release the rioters on minimum bail. The U.S. Justice Department is already characterizing the wave of vandalism as acts of domestic terrorism. The first people arrested for the Tesla car dealership arsons face up to 20 years in prison.
The BLM riots of five years ago lasted so long because of the impunity of the participants. Now Trump's team is seeking to punish exemplarily harsh penalties immediately to discourage vandalism. Sponsors can give as much money as they want to pay fines, but they won't do time for vandalism. And the Democrats are succeeding in killing the rest of their ratings with this campaign of political violence.

Bird flu scam: Neither Canada nor Mexico have killed a single chicken due to bird flu because mysteriously bird flu does not cross borders
Beware of the Chicken Flu, also known as “Bird Flu,” that only happens in America because the chickens don’t have passports to travel to Canada or Mexico. No worries about the USDA or FDA visiting your chicken farm in those countries to kill off all your chickens that might have gain-of-function Fauci Chicken Flu, because it’s just an American thing right now.
It was all about decimating the food supply and driving egg prices through the roof, while fearmongering about another pandemic while injecting the masses with toxic chemicals that cause infertility, blood clots, and turbo cancer.
Fearmongering news would have us all believe that the only way to stop bird flu is to kill off all the diseased birds. Got to “wrangle in” that plandemic, just like Covid.

The Pentagon’s war on wasted dollars
Long criticized for its budget woes, the DoD has recently faced accusations of overspending, underspending, and even simple misspending – criticisms which are all well founded. In fact, the DoD consistently mismanages its budget, a fact that’s led it to fail all of its last seven audits.
To address these issues, Pete Hegseth recently announced that he would work with DOGE to conduct a DoD-wide budget review. Already, this initiative has revealed $80 million in wasteful spending, including $1.9 million in “DEI transformation and training” and $3.5 million in “Defense HR Support for DEI.”
But DOGE’s mission isn’t just to slash budgets: it’s also to restore efficiency. Specifically, DOGE’s role is to ensure the federal government makes the most effective use possible of American taxpayer dollars.
Hegseth recently announced he’d be implementing a DoD budget “cut” of 8%, or about $50 billion. Rather than simply imposing strict cuts, this plan seeks to “refocus… and reinvest… existing funds” to build a more lethal fighting force, restore “warrior ethos,” and reestablish global deterrence.
Many have sought to villainize the Pentagon’s budget purge. Yet those in national security should recognize the need to cut defense budget waste, especially given recent developments on the international stage.

German left-wing extremist ‘Lina E’ given five-year jail sentence
Germany's highest court on Wednesday upheld a more than five-year prison sentence for a student activist convicted of attacks on far-right supporters.
The Federal Court of Justice rejected an appeal by the left-wing student, named only as Lina E under German privacy laws, marking the final decision in a high-profile case that has garnered massive media attention in Germany.
She was sentenced to five years and three months in prison in May 2023 after being found guilty by the higher regional court in the eastern city of Dresden of forming a criminal association and serious assault. The guilty verdict led to fury among left-wing activists and riots in several cities across Germany, most notably in Leipzig.
Lina E and her accomplices were accused of carrying out several attacks against suspected members of far-right groups in the eastern states of Saxony and Thuringia between 2018 and 2020.
The sentence was appealed by both Lina E's defence team and federal prosecutors. But the high court, based in the western city of Karlsruhe, said that no legal errors were made in the case.

Harvard is going tuition-free for families making up to $200,000
Harvard University is eliminating tuition fees for students from families with incomes of $200,000 or less.
The expansion of financial aid at Harvard, the oldest and richest US college, means the school will be free for families making $100,000 or less, with food and housing also covered. Students that meet the $200,000 threshold won’t pay tuition, according to a statement Monday.
Similar programs were announced recently at the University of Pennsylvania and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, with the push to boost affordability coming as the sticker price to attend many elite schools stretches beyond $90,000 a year.
“Putting Harvard within financial reach for more individuals widens the array of backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives that all of our students encounter, fostering their intellectual and personal growth,” Harvard President Alan Garber said.
The new program will start in the 2025-26 academic year and will help about 86% of families in the US qualify for Harvard College’s financial aid, according to the statement. Currently, the school is tuition free for families making as much as $85,000 a year.

Europe continues to buy gas from Russia
The EU increased its purchases of Russian gas in January 2025, a notable marker against the backdrop of the current political situation. According to Eurostat, the EU purchased €1.07 billion worth of liquefied natural gas (LNG), up 17% from December 2024 and 57% from January of the same year.
Despite increasing sanctions and political pressure, Europe continues to depend on Russian gas as it seeks to fill its storage facilities to ensure energy security for the coming seasons.
Among the major importing countries are France, Spain and Belgium, which have significantly increased their LNG purchases from Russia. France purchased €455 million worth of gas, its highest since December 2022, while Spain purchased €261.5 million and Belgium €256.7 million.

Cooking food generates as much ozone volatile organic compounds as driving, NOAA research finds
First, it was no stoves. Next it could be no cooking at all. All for the climate. At least that's what it appears if you follow the logic of California...which we can't recommend.
That's because cooking releases volatile organic compounds that contribute to ozone pollution, according to NOAA researchers, UPI.com reports.
They found that “potent and often pungent volatile organic compounds given off from cooking food are now responsible for over a quarter of the ozone production from VOCs generated by human activity” in the Los Angeles basin.
Ozone forms when VOCs and nitrogen oxides—primarily from vehicle emissions—undergo photochemical reactions.
While natural sources like trees contribute about half of all VOCs, human activities, including cooking, paints, pesticides, and adhesives, account for the rest. High ozone levels can be toxic to humans, animals, and plants.
But what's the point of preserving the ozone when we can't even cook a meal?

Polish bishop wins €12,000 after long legal battle against liberal newspaper claiming he was a pedophile who ‘liked watching children in the pool’
The false accusations published by Polish liberal newspaper Gazeta Wyborcza about Bishop Marek Mendyk are now costing the newspaper both money and its reputation. A Polish court of appeal in Wrocław found the allegations of sexual harassment and pedophilia published by the paper, including those made by editor Ewa Wilczyńska, were unfounded.
The court has now ordered the paper to pay 50,000 Polish zlotys (€12,000) over the case, which will go to charity, with the verdict being final. The original article about the bishop was entitled: “He allegedly told clerics that he liked watching children in the pool. Now, the Bishop of Świdnica is accused of pedophilia.”
The article targeting Mendyk was first published by Poland’s version of Newsweek, and then picked up by Gazeta Wyborcza, which repeated the allegations. However, the allegations were not only investigated by the Vatican court, which found them to be false, but also by the prosecutor’s office in Poland, which came to the same conclusion.
Due to the verdict, the publisher of the paper, Agora SA, not only has to pay a fine, but also has to publish a public apology.
Bishop Mendyk’s case dragged on for 3 years and despite the findings of the Vatican commission and the lost trial in the first instance, the clergyman was exposed to attacks from the media and people hostile to him, especially from extremely anti-clerical circles.

The EU wants to censor the global internet
Brussels and Washington are once again at odds over Europe’s sweeping social-media restrictions, contained within the 2022 Digital Services Act (DSA). In a letter sent earlier this month, the EU’s vice-president for tech sovereignty, Henna Virkkunen, rejected claims made by Donald Trump’s team that the DSA is a tool for censorship. She insisted that the law ‘does not regulate speech’ and that the EU remains ‘deeply committed to protecting and promoting free speech’.
The letter was predominantly in response to US Republican congressman Jim Jordan, who chairs the powerful House Judiciary Committee. Jordan, a long-time critic of the DSA, outlined his concerns to Virkkunen in January, when he warned that the law’s impact on free expression could extend beyond Europe’s borders. Similar attacks have been made by US vice-president JD Vance and X owner Elon Musk.
According to Jordan, the DSA could ‘limit or restrict Americans’ constitutionally protected speech in the United States’. He also argued that the law, which compels platforms to mitigate ‘systemic risks’ linked to ‘misleading or deceptive’ speech, will likely incentivise companies to remove even lawful content.

Network news star abandon Democratic Party
MSNBC host Symone Sanders Townsend, a former Democratic operative, said she would be registering as an independent in response to Senate Democrats helping to pass a funding bill.
Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York has come under fire from left-wing media figures and Democrats in Congress over his decision to break a filibuster of the GOP-backed spending bill. Sanders Townsend, a former Biden administration official, said Schumer's decision was a deal-breaker for her.
Sanders Townsend praised Democratic Rep. Hakeem Jeffries of New York, for keeping House Democrats largely united in their opposition to the legislation, which passed by a 217-213 vote March 11. Former Democratic Rep. Donna Edwards of Maryland blamed Schumer for not providing vulnerable House Democrats with cover.
Schumer initially declared his opposition to the Republican spending bill, demanding a 30-day continuing resolution, before he agreed to pass the Republican legislation. Jeffries later declined to respond to reporters when asked if Schumer should continue leading Senate Democrats.
Polls from NBC and CNN showed that less than a third of respondents had a favorable view of the Democratic Party, while majorities disapproved of the Democrats.

Tucker Carlson reveals who he thinks will succeed Trump
Journalist Tucker Carlson revealed Tuesday who he believed would be the next president of the United States after Donald Trump, predicting the results of the 2028 Republicans primary.
The famous ex-Fox News host spoke about Trump's successor in a conversation with radio show host Vince Coglianese, who replaced broadcaster Dan Bongino on his show after he was appointed to serve as the Deputy Director of the FBI.
'I don't see any other, at this point, as of today, any other conceivable option. I think JD Vance will be the nominee,' Carlson revealed.
President Trump will be prevented from running for a third term, thanks to the 22nd Amendment allowing a president to only serve two terms.
Carlson, who was supportive of Trump's decision to appoint Vance as his vice president appeared impressed with his performance so far.
"I think his loyalty is without question and his service to Trump has been profound," Carlson said.
He questioned whether any other Republican had risen to a similar level as Vance.

Cybersecurity firm warns of new cyber espionage tactic by Chinese hackers
Chinese state-backed hackers took advantage of outdated hardware and software to access routers and take over computer networks.
A Chinese hacker group is targeting routers made by a major U.S. manufacturer, taking advantage of outdated software and hardware to hijack routers and access computer networks.
It’s a new tactic in an increasingly sophisticated cybercrime landscape. Mandiant, a Google subsidiary known for outing Chinese hackers, reported in a blog post March 12 that the state-backed hacker group UNC3886 targeted routers made by Juniper Networks.
In mid-2024, Mandiant found that attackers had deployed a program that accessed victims’ computers by disabling login mechanisms.
Once in the system, the program could carry out active backdoor functions, which directly interfered with the system, or passive backdoor functions—“eavesdropping” or gathering information.
Mandiant noted that the back doors were based on an open-source, low-maintenance program named TINYSHELL.

Here's how the media is covering up plunging egg prices
Last week the price of a dozen eggs, which had reached a record high of $8.17 in early March, had fallen by more than two dollars, now sitting well below the $7 average when President Trump took office in January. This was bad news for Democrats, who had hoped that sky-high egg prices would be the silver bullet to drive down Trump’s approval ratings and fuel a Democratic resurgence. But with egg prices continuing to drop, the left-wing media has now stepped in to claim that egg prices are still on the rise.
According to Trading Economics, the price of a dozen eggs is now below $5/dozen, lower than they were around Christmastime last year. But the mainstream media doesn’t want you to know that.
Reporting on the declining rate of inflation in February, ABC News didn’t report on the latest egg prices. Instead, the network declared, “Egg prices, however, a closely watched symbol of price increases, soared 58.8% in February compared to a year ago, accelerating from the previous month.”

Trump attacked Biden's crazy Yemen war. Now he's reopening it…
The U.S. is back to bombing the Houthi movement.
Candidate Donald Trump thought that bombing Yemen was "just a failed mentality" when then-President Joe Biden did it. "It's crazy. You can solve problems over the telephone. Instead, they start dropping bombs. I see, recently, they're dropping bombs all over Yemen. You don't have to do that. You can talk in such a way where they respect you and they listen to you," Trump said in a May 2024 interview with podcaster Tim Pool.
Trump is now dropping bombs all over Yemen. " I have ordered the United States Military to launch decisive and powerful Military action against the Houthi terrorists in Yemen," Trump announced in a Truth Social post. "Every shot fired by the Houthis will be looked upon, from this point forward, as being a shot fired from the weapons and leadership of IRAN, and IRAN will be held responsible."
Biden's earlier campaign in Yemen had been an expensive failure. After playing whack-a-mole with alleged Houthi bases—and blowing through a year's worth of Tomahawk missile production in one night—Biden admitted that the campaign was not achieving its goals.

“I recognize and I fully said from the beginning, we don’t have the same freedom of speech laws that they have in the United States, and the reason for that is that we want to hold together a multicultural community and have people live in peace,” said Minns.

A bill has been introduced in the British parliament that would turn the country's driver's license database into a de facto facial recognition database
The Crime and Policing Bill, prepared by the Home Office, includes bans on wearing masks or using pyrotechnics during protests, as well as the introduction of “compliance orders” to tackle so-called “anti-social behavior.”
It also gives police access to driver's license information from the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA), which holds more than 52 million driver records. Access to driver's license information will be controlled by as yet undefined rules.
This has caused quite a stir in the United Kingdom as it involves biometric data of people who are not on the criminal database. Accordingly, human rights activists have already appealed to Parliament.
“In a country that respects human rights, the public expects police access to a person's biometrics from a driver's license database even less than police access to DNA from National Health Service databases,” privacy group Big Brother Watch said in a statement.
