Synopsis:



My dear friends, it is nothing short of mind-boggling how the obsessed MSM -- liberal Mainstream Media -- continually gaslights the American public by intentionally distorting the facts so that a story conforms to the false narrative which they wish to convey. It is as if they are on non-stop steroids. As I have explained on previous occasions, as a matter of practice, I regularly read stories from both the conservative press, as well as from the liberal press. My purpose in doing this is to then compare the two stories in order to hopefully determine exactly where the truth lies between them. Well, at least some semblance of the truth. We are dealing with the secular world, after all, where it is common practice to rely upon sensationalism in order to boost both viewership and profits.

As I have mentioned to my readers before, when one follows this practice of comparing different news sources, his mind is totally blown away when he realizes how differently these two arms of the press will treat the very same event. It is almost as if they are writing about two entirely different events because there is little comparison between the way in which they both report it. That is just how much their two perspectives varies from each other.

A clear case in point concerns a news story I read some time ago concerning how the Trump administration used the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 as a way to expedite the removal of over two hundred alleged members of the well-known and dangerous Tren de Aragua Venezuelan gang from the United States. This gang was in fact designated as an FTO -- Foreign Terrorist Organization -- by the Trump administration in November of 2025. Following is an announcement which appeared on the US Department of State website, which I likewise include in my nine-part series called "Donald Trump and the Truth About Venezuela", which I published in January of this current year, and which you'll find listed at the end of this same article:

----- Begin Quote -----

"The Department of State intends to designate Cartel de los Soles as a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO), effective November 24, 2025. Based in Venezuela, the Cartel de los Soles is headed by Nicolás Maduro and other high-ranking individuals of the illegitimate Maduro regime who have corrupted Venezuela's military, intelligence, legislature, and judiciary. Neither Maduro nor his cronies represent Venezuela's legitimate government. Cartel de los Soles by and with other designated FTOs including Tren de Aragua and the Sinaloa Cartel are responsible for terrorist violence throughout our hemisphere as well as for trafficking drugs into the United States and Europe."

----- End Quote -----

In my opinion, the fact that the gang members were sent to a maximum-security prison in El Salvador tells us all we really need to know regarding how dangerous those gang members were. Last year Tren de Aragua made U.S. news, because they had in fact infiltrated a number of apartment complexes in Aurora, which is the largest suburb of Denver, Colorado. According to available online sources, the Aurora Police confirmed that Tren de Aragua members were in fact operating in the area, and that they had identified approximately ten documented members by September 2024. Gang members were linked to various crimes, including extortion, assault, and drug trafficking. They often targeted other Venezuelan migrants.

Tren de Aragua members were also involved in a fatal shooting, as well as a separate, violent kidnapping at the Edge at Lowry apartments. The apartments were eventually closed in February of 2025. Several people connected to the gang were arrested, including suspects caught in New York City in late 2024 and in early 2025. As of today, law enforcement continues to monitor the situation, as the Tren de Aragua gang remains a concern in the Denver metro area.

Folks, in my view, we simply do NOT need these kinds of people in our country. They have no business being here, regardless of whether they are here legally or illegally. America already has enough problems without individuals such as these adding to our societal burden. To drive the point home. Below are two images. The first is a group of MS-13 members who I believe are now incarcerated in El Salvador. Going by the tattoo that says "Aragua" in fancy letters on the head of the man on the far right of the second image, I am assuming that these are in fact members of the Venezuelan Foreign Terrorist Organization and gang, Tren de Aragua, who are likewise incarcerated in El Salvador. Now tell me something, my friends. Would you really want to meet any of these guys as you are walking home alone at night along some dark inner city street?





So why does news of this ouster by the Trump administration irk me a bit? At issue is the fact that the previous day on March 15, 2025, a renegade, liberal U.S. District Judge by the name of James Boasberg -- who presides in Washington, DC -- issued a Temporary Restraining Order -- or TRO -- to block the deportation of the Tren de Aragua gang members. In fact, the judge demanded that the gang members be returned to the United States. However, the Trump administration ignored the order, and continued to deport the alleged gang members, by claiming the planes were already in the air by the time that the judge's written order was received. Whether or not this is true, I really don't know. By the way, in may interest you to know that Boasberg is a Democrat who was nominated by President Barack Hussein Obama in 2011.

At any rate, the very next month -- April of 2025 -- the U.S. Supreme Court intervened and ruled in a 5-4 decision that the Trump administration needed to provide sufficient notice to the Tren de Aragua detainees, allowing them to contest their removals. While the ruling prevented the Trump administration from continuing deportation of Tren de Aragua gang members if the gang members had not been given sufficient notice, it did NOT order the Trump administration to return any gang members who had already been deported earlier in the year. The ACLU -- American Civil Liberties Union -- of course touted the Supreme Court's ruling as a legal victory. However, Trump maintained that his administration had the right to deport the Tren de Aragua gang members.

Well, in September of that same year -- 2025 -- the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit ruled that the Alien Enemies Act couldn't be used to deport the alleged Tren de Aragua gang members, finding "no invasion or predatory incursion" that the Trump administration could use to justify the use of a wartime law during peacetime. Then in February of this current year -- 2026 -- Judge James Boasberg further ordered the government to facilitate the return of some Venezuelan migrants who had been deported to El Salvador, so that they could challenge their removals in U.S. court. So while the Trump administration did succeed in executing early rounds of deportations despite the temporary blocks, the courts -- including the Fifth Circuit -- have subsequently ruled that using the 1798 Alien Enemies Act for these specific expulsions is legally invalid.

My friends, it seems to me that any sane person would actually be thankful that President Trump had these vile and dangerous gang members removed from our midst as quickly as possible. Do you agree? And yet, insanity of insanities, just as Joe Biden purposely allowed so many questionable characters to enter our country by way of very lax border policies, the U.S. judicial system -- including the U.S. Supreme Court, sad to say -- has stopped the deportations, so that these hooligans can attempt to defend themselves first. This is madness! This is insanity! Are those judges going to take responsibility when said gang members kill more people, sell more drugs to our kids, rape more of our women, and commit other violent acts? I think not.

Well, as many of my readers will no doubt already know, the liberal Mainstream Media has their own insane and distorted way of perceiving things. So if they can twist the facts of a story -- or report it from a completely different angle -- in order to make President Trump look as bad as possible, we can be sure that this is exactly what they will do. Sadly -- but not surprisingly -- the MSM treated the expulsion of the Tren de Aragua gang members in precisely this same fashion. In other words, rather than highlight the good that President Trump had done by removing the gang members from our nation -- which will make all Americans a little safer -- they chose to concentrate on the fact that President Trump had dared to defy a liberal judge.

My friends, again, as many of you will already know, that is the sick, biased, liberal press that we are dealing with. In their eyes, President Trump and the Conservatives can never do anything right or good. The liberal MSM will always find something wrong with it. They will always find something to criticize. They will always find a negative angle to report, because they simply do NOT know how to think any other way. They have one-track minds. They are caught in this loop from which they aren't only unable to escape, but from which they do not even want to escape. They relish in being deceivers and liars. They're seriously infected with TDS, a.k.a. Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Now, is that true or not? I mean, seriously, if you have been reading the news for many years as I have been doing, their bias and discrimination against Conservatives is very hard to miss, right? In thinking about these distorters of the truth, I am reminded of the following Bible verse which is found in the Book of the Prophet Isaiah. I suspect that it is a very popular verse with a lot of Christians:

"Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!"


Regarding the liberal judges who are constantly trying to slow down and obstruct the Trump administration’s objectives and agenda, let me say that this is something which has been bothering me for quite some time now. Quite frankly, I think that there is something seriously wrong with our American system of government when an American president -- whether it is Donald Trump, or any other US president -- is voted into office by a majority of American citizens -- no matter how small that majority may be -- and then a single federal judge has the legal authority and judicial might to simply slap down some of the president’s policies and objectives. Not just once, mind you, but over and over again.

Now, don't get me wrong. I fully understand that we have a built-in system of checks and balances in order to prevent a US president from overextending his authority. Nevertheless, something still just does not seem right about this to me. When this happens over and over again with the same sitting president, you just know that something is wrong somewhere, right?

Quite frankly, I am of the opinion that some of these judges -- and, yes, I primarily mean liberal judges, being as they are the ones who are mostly doing it -- wield too much power considering the office that they hold in comparison to the office of the president of the United States. It reminds me of how some liberal, renegade judges rammed through civil unions and same-sex "marriage" before it actually became the law of the land through a horrendous and ungodly ruling by the Supreme Court of the United States on June 26, 2015; a date which I personally will never forget. I've long thought that that was the day when America truly sealed her fate as far as the Lord is concerned. That is when America crossed a divine red line. You may or may not agree with, but that is how I personally see it.

At any rate, concerning the balance of power which the wise founders of our nation built into our political system, and how these liberal, renegade judges seem to repeatedly abuse the intended balance so that they even tie the president's hands over and over again, I am reminded of the following Bible verse:

"A false balance is abomination to the LORD: but a just weight is his delight."


Of course, I already know in advance that if any liberals end up reading this article, there immediate reaction will more than likely be "Oh, no, Bill. You've got it completely wrong. It is not the judges who are abusing their authority. It is President Trump. The man is a dictator. He is out of control. Trump really needs to be reined in! Get your story straight, Bill." Look. I am no fool. Neither am I a MAGA fanatic, or even a Republican. In fact, I do not belong to any political party. So you might say that I am on neutral ground. I know that President Trump is no angel. He is far from perfect, and there are certain things about him which I really do not like.

Furthermore, anyone who has read enough of my politically oriented articles will quickly come to realize that I call it as I see it, no matter who it is, both Republicans and Democrats. I have laid quite a few criticisms against Mr. Trump. Aside from his difficult personality, I see through his facade. I see through his very thin Christian veneer, and his image of himself as being a top notch peacemaker. So accusing me of being biased in my views and opinions as a result of my political affiliation -- again, I don't have any -- simply holds no water.

All I know is that right now, the American political system is seriously broken, particularly at the federal level. As I mention in a few other BBB articles, the U.S. Congress has reached a point where it has now become pretty dysfunctional for the most part. It is frozen and totally polarized. Both parties are so deeply entrenched that there is now so very little room left for flexibility and maneuverability. I am sure that many of you see it. US Congressmen are for the most part voting along party lines with few defectors from either side. They can't even agree upon federal budgets. It is a rather sad situation indeed.

At any rate, these are my personal thoughts regarding these matters. All I know is that something needs to change if we expect to retain a cohesive government. As Jesus Himself said in the Gospels:

"And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand: And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand?"


"And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand. And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end."


"But he, knowing their thoughts, said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and a house divided against a house falleth. If Satan also be divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand? because ye say that I cast out devils through Beelzebub."


Again, you may agree or disagree with me. Honestly speaking, it really doesn't matter to me either way. I don't write to seek anyone's approval. I write simply to try to convey what I personally perceive as the truth.

With these thoughts, I will bring this article to a close. It is my hope that you've found it informative and enlightening, and I pray that it has been a blessing in your life as well.
