💰 Here’s How Much Trump’s Pardons and Commutations Have Cost the Federal Government A new report claims that Donald Trump’s pardons and commutations may have cost the federal government millions in lost fines, legal appeals, and supervision costs. Critics argue that many of the recipients were political allies or celebrity offenders, not wrongfully convicted citizens. But here’s the truth they leave out: 🔹 The cost of a pardon isn’t the problem. 🔹 The real waste is the DOJ's budget being weaponized against political enemies while cartel traffickers walk free. 🔹 Meanwhile, January 6 defendants rot in pretrial cells while fentanyl dealers cut plea deals. If we’re talking dollars, let’s audit DOJ grants, FBI slush funds, and fake domestic terror task forces before crying over paperwork costs for clemency. 🔗 Source: https://www.forbes.com/sites/zacheverson/2021/01/20/heres-how-much-trumps-pardons-and-commutations-have-cost-the-federal-government/ (Note: You may sub in newer coverage if available) #TrumpPardons #J6Truth #JusticeReform #DOJCorruption #BETTRNewswire #PoliticalPrisoners #FederalWaste

Millions Join "Hands Off" Protests Against Trump and Musk – Media Barely Covers It While most mainstream outlets remain silent, millions of Americans have taken to the streets in the largest coordinated protests since President Trump's return to office. The "Hands Off" protests, launched on April 5, 2025, spanned all 50 states and even reached international cities, rallying against attacks on Medicare, Social Security, immigration rights, and democracy itself. Organized by more than 150 groups—including the ACLU, AFL-CIO, Indivisible, and Planned Parenthood—these protests have drawn between 3 and 5 million participants. Yet major networks have barely acknowledged the movement, raising serious concerns about selective media coverage. Protesters are not only pushing back against federal policies but also spotlighting issues like the sudden dismissal of corruption charges against NYC Mayor Eric Adams, an event that triggered mass resignations inside the Department of Justice. Many fear that critical checks on power are crumbling—and the media silence is making it worse. The question remains: If millions protest and the media doesn’t cover it, did it happen at all? #HandsOffProtests #MediaBias #Trump #ElonMusk #Corruption #FreedomMarch #DemocracyMatters 🔗 Full source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hands_Off_protests 🔗 DOJ Resignation details: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2025_U.S._Department_of_Justice_resignations

🚨 Feds Charge 27 in Major NYC Crackdown on Violent Venezuelan Gang 'Tren de Aragua' In a historic first, federal prosecutors have charged 27 members and associates of the violent Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua and its splinter group Anti-Tren in New York City. Charges include racketeering, drug trafficking, sex trafficking, armed robbery, and firearms violations—marking the first use of federal RICO laws against this gang on U.S. soil. Authorities say the gang smuggled women into the U.S. for prostitution, pushed a ketamine-laced street drug known as “tusi”, and terrorized NYC neighborhoods through organized violence. 21 suspects are in custody. 6 are still at large. NYC isn’t just facing a crime wave—we’re under siege by transnational gangs emboldened by open-border policies.

🧬 Trump’s DOJ Reportedly Targeting Woke Medical Journals in New Free Speech Push The Department of Justice under Donald Trump is reportedly preparing legal action against major medical journals accused of prioritizing identity politics over science. Sources claim the administration is exploring whether race- and gender-based publication standards violate First Amendment protections and equal access to federal research funding. Legal analysts say the move could have far-reaching implications for academic freedom, scientific publishing, and taxpayer-funded institutions accused of ideological bias. #TrumpDOJ #WokeMedicine #MedicalJournals #FreeSpeech #AcademicFreedom #BETTRNews https://www.forbes.com/sites/amyfeldman/2025/04/18/trumps-doj-is-going-after-medical-journals-for-being-too-woke/?utm_campaign=socialflowForbesMainFB&utm_source=ForbesMainFacebook&utm_medium=social&fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR6G16ZQspnk0tdsidnSGtgZvLofHmS1GSmMIKN8kE_Vtt_RU11pz_tDQDQTIA_aem_itOm8w2tz22rgFVuYOnX9g

⚖️ BETTR Breakdown: Did a Federal Judge Just Hold the Trump Administration in Contempt? In a dramatic turn, U.S. District Judge James E. Boasberg has found probable cause to hold the Trump administration in criminal contempt, stemming from a deportation flight to El Salvador that allegedly violated a federal court order. Here’s what happened — and why it matters: 🛫 The Order That Was Ignored? Judge Boasberg had issued a last-minute court order to halt deportations under the Alien Enemies Act, insisting that detainees be given a chance to challenge their removal in court. Despite this, the plane took off — and landed in El Salvador, where detainees were transferred to a prison facility. The judge argued the flight should’ve been rerouted or returned. The administration argued it was too late. 💥 Contempt or Political Overreach? Boasberg’s stance: “If a federal court can’t halt deportations, what power does it have at all?” He warned that if DOJ fails to investigate, he may appoint a special prosecutor. The Trump team’s stance: The plane had already taken off. The judge’s ruling was vague and issued too late to enforce. The administration argues the court is overreaching. The Supreme Court later vacated the ruling on procedural grounds but still emphasized that deportees are owed due process before removal. 🧠 BETTR Perspective: Is Boasberg Right or Just in Too Deep? From a legal standpoint, Boasberg has standing. Court orders are binding—even on the executive branch. But politically? He’s wading into deep, dangerous waters. This isn’t just about law—it’s about optics, timing, and legacy. Holding a former president's administration in contempt while that president is actively campaigning in 2024-25 is bound to stir backlash. 🧩 What Comes Next? The Trump-aligned DOJ may refuse to pursue charges. Boasberg could move to appoint an independent attorney. Trump’s allies are already calling for Boasberg’s impeachment—something Chief Justice John Roberts has condemned as political retribution. 💬 JSA2026 Says: “This isn’t about one plane or one judge. It’s about whether the rule of law still applies when politics get messy. If courts can’t be respected, then we have no checks. But if judges become politicians in robes — we’ve already lost.” — 📅 April 21, 2025 📞 Campaign Contact: (516) 882-6275 📧 Email: contact@bettr.community 🌐 https://bettrsm.com #Trump2025 #ContemptCase #JudicialPower #DOJWatch #AlienEnemiesAct #JSA2026 #BETTRNews #TurnNYRed #BoasbergRuling #DeportationRights #FreeSpeechMatters

Trump Admin Refers NY AG Letitia James for Criminal Prosecution Over Alleged Mortgage Fraud In a dramatic twist, the Trump administration has referred New York Attorney General Letitia James to the Department of Justice for possible criminal prosecution. The allegations? Misrepresenting key details on mortgage documents to secure favorable loan terms for properties in Brooklyn and Virginia. The referral, issued by FHFA Director William Pulte, claims James may have falsely listed her primary residence and misrepresented property unit counts. One document from 1983 even listed James and her father as “husband and wife.” This comes just weeks after James won a $464 million civil fraud judgment against Donald Trump, leading critics to call the referral political payback. James’s office responded defiantly, saying she “will not be intimidated by bullies.” This fight is far from over—and could reshape political and legal battlegrounds heading into 2026. #LetitiaJames #TrumpNews #MortgageFraud #CriminalReferral #NYPolitics #BETTR #DOJ #PoliticalRetaliation #Accountability Full Story: https://www.fox4news.com/news/trump-administration-ny-ag-letitia-james-possible-prosecution-mortgage-fraud-allegations?utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=facebook&fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR5ZO9swpFi6SNt_PBmP4Om8aFyiZn4zzC3FPnHZeCJ7ta44uNeVZs2--wkTHw_aem_e9Cpz6qB92bu7s_mqSUWQQ
