I have been watching and listening to the judiciary debacle from my equatorial living hangout in northeast Brasil, Don. Constancy of temperature and sunlight is good for my health. And I like to watch the daily activity at the beach. I don't care for Roberts . He is a RINO in the very least and a committed " I make the law " enthusiast. Remember Obamacare. And he could not find the leaker of the Alito opinion on Roe v Wade because it was probably him or his staff.
SCOTUS will create a constitutional crisis. That's what the Left wants. Bring it on, I say. If they rule against the authority of the Executive Branch and the POTUS authorized responsibility, all bets are off. 250 year redo. Issue your opinion. Now enforce it, John. Will Soros provide you the street foot soldiers for enforcement. Get right with your God, John. You will lose this one because the American people will not suffer fools like you.
Thank you for this column. This situation is outrageous. One point that particularly stood out to me was that "...the federal government faced 14 universal injunctions in the first 3 years of the Biden administration, compared to the 15 leveled against Trump in one month alone."
I do think it is important these days to always preface a Judge's name with the name of the President who appointed him/her. Judge Brian Murphy, who just issued the order against using the Alien Enema (deliberate spelling) Act to deport MS-13 gang members, was appointed by Biden just last year in 2024. So he is "Biden-Judge Brian Murphy".
NY Supreme Court Judge Mary Rosado, is a Democrat elected in 2019 by the voters of New York State. Her term doesn't end until 2032. So she is "Democratic NY Supreme Court Judge Rosado".
The Left is always trying to discourage us, so that we will surrender and not fight. But if we clearly label these lawfare Judges by who appointed them (or if elected, by their Party identification), it will be very clear to the public that this is NOT a case of Trump being some bad rogue-President who is being fought by the whole "legitimate" judiciary.
What it really is, is just a Democratic subset of the Judiciary--chiefly Obama and Biden-appointed Judges; plus a few Clinton ones. They were appointed by Communists for the specific purpose of engaging in lawfare against America. We can defeat this subset.
It would be really good if Trump would rapidly appoint about 4 or 5 new Deputy Attorney Generals to help Pam Bondi with the ENORMOUS workload we are facing in the legal area. Each new Deputy could focus on a particular topic.
No matter how many Deputy AGs Trump appoints, if the rule holds that every single illegal is is entitled to a formal legal process before deportation, then we may as well give up and announce our surrender to a foreign invasion. Running 20 million illegals through a bunch of legalities is totally impractical, which is why it was not done during previous mass-deportations, like those under Truman and Eisenhower -- and not under Obama either, who reportedly deported 3 million. So what we've got here is a blatant attempt to change this country into something we won't recognize in a few years.
While I'm in agreement, we need a better handle for Xiden appointments. I call Barry's Bozo's Obamunist, but we need a good prefix for Zhou's appointees.
Sniffy Judge Brian Murphy?
I touch kids Judge Murphy?
Ukrainian Bribes Judge Murphy?
Demented imbecile Judge Murphy? I like that one.
In the end, all of them appointed by Barry and Zhou are Soros judges.
So the kakistocracy that was the FJB administration has been replaced by a kritarchy which has been deranged by the TDS. What happened to Kavanaugh, Gorsuch, and Barrett?! Are they being held hostage or their children kidnapped and the ransom is their acquiescence in this atrocity?
Yes, the danger is a bureaucracy, courts, and many others in the media/gov't, "NGO" complex that have forgotten that this is a Republic, OF the people.
Forget whether we respect (fill in the blank). It is clear that these demons don't respect the People of this country.
Had to read this a couple times to understand- the “677 district judges” are the same “fatberg” as the “career district employees”.
Got a crisp ten dollar bill (my monthly gambling allowance) that Trump knows more about destroying fatbergs than anyone on the hill.
Here’s my prayer (and yes, we’re called to pray for those in authority): That Alito & Thomas see this as their hill to die on. Also, for all good judges, retired or active, to come to the aid of their country.
Got no problem w/ my Catholic friends and neighbors. In fact I think they make the best football & basketball coaches.
If President, I’d do my best to minimize their numbers on the Supreme Court (and its minor league feeder system). Why? Because for some reason that I’ve never figured out- Catholics have an unfathomable ability to accommodate a system that breeds pedophile priests and Marxist popes. Th4, I’m not surprised when they have no stomach for going after the Deep State.
We need some Southern Baptist justices who went to state schools. These uppity, country club, private school justices don’t represent real Americans and can’t think like us.
Even though I'm not a Catholic, I cannot agree to your generalizations. The number of pedophile Catholic priests is dwarfed by the pedophile public school teachers among whom women are increasingly prominent. And as to Marxist popes, the 266 who have served have been all kinds of characters, from lucid to criminally insane, from prim & proper to lecherous in the extreme.
Of course the sheer number of teachers would dwarf the priests, but I’d guess there are at least 1 thousand teachers per priest.
My criticism is that Catholics are far less likely to leave Catholicism when its found to experience a high rate of fallen leaders than most people. Hence my observation that Catholics are more comfortable with corruption in the gov’t than non-Catholics.
I offer as proof that 5 of the 7 on SCOTUS won’t let us deport illegal aliens w/o some insane and infeasible ‘due process’.
One possible explanation is the survival of the doctrine that was called Donatism. It basically said that no matter how personally corrupt a priest may be, his priestly actions, like the host and blessings and such remain valid.
This judicial revolt just can't go on. Something is going to give and it's likely to be ugly, but I think there needs to be a reckoning. It just can't go on.
It's time to question the value of law schools as well as of state bars. Justice Robert Jackson, whom Don mentioned, simply apprenticed and read law books; and yet he was appointed to preside over the unprecedented Nuremberg trials, and his opinions in many other cases make for fantastic reading.
That said, I wonder if the legal profession is engaged in some sort of conspiracy to make everyone forget and ignore sensible opinions like Jackson's. One case in point is his Supreme Court verdict from 1943, which made it clear that public school officials -- or any other pompous pretenders of the Judge-Barfberg-caliber -- cannot force people to adhere to any belief system that they want to impose. I quote Jackson:
"If there is any fixed star in our constitutional constellation, it is that no official, high or petty, can prescribe what shall be orthodox in politics, nationalism, religion, or other matters of opinion or force citizens to confess by word or act their faith therein. If there are any circumstances which permit an exception, they do not now occur to us."
The case was West Virginia State Board of Education et al. v. Barnette et al., 319 U.S. 624 (1943), at 642. To the best of my knowledge it has never been overruled. And yet, here we have school boards and teachers and Barfbergs insisting on indoctrinating little kids in their charge with the most repulsive garbage.
What .puzzles me most is this: a foreigner's presence in this country is a privilege, not a right. In any such situation, the entity having the authority to grant a privilege may also deny it, modify it, or revoke it at will, and, absent a contract defining conditions governing the privilege, there is no legal recourse. Even a visa does not confer a right to be here, but a privilege, and the State Department may revoke a visa at any time, and does so on occasion.
But those here illegally are not even exercising a privilege. I am puzzled why the administration's lawyers even show up in court for these things and try to argue on merits. By participating in a court proceeding, they are making tacit agreement that the court has jurisdiction and that they will abide by the court's decision, pending appeal. When DHS removes an illegal alien, no laws are broken, AFAIK, and no one's rights are violated (privilege, remember?), so the courts simply have no role to play.
I'm not a lawyer, and I understand this. Why don't the administration's lawyers proceed like this?
You clearly explain the absurdity of the recent court actions and decisions on this issue. By doing so, you are also illuminating illogic of lawfare in its raw and un-media-censored form.
The best analogy of the year is Don's FATBERG comparison.
Yes, it is a perfect analogy. I clicked on that link and read the article. Fat and human waste are perfect analogies for the Deep State and the judiciary but do people really flush jewelry, teeth, and dental floss down the toilet?
Can’t imagine how the ingredients to a fatberg are sourced, BUT if we ever see our DOJ enact some sorely needed justice on the deep staters I will propose building a special prison in the desert - without air conditioning - and name it FATBERG PENITENTIARY to house them all.
The dental floss most likely went down the bathroom sink; I break that stuff all the time, but being nylon it should not travel down that drain or the toilet; it belongs in bathroom garbage cans. As to the dentures, my father once lost those while shouting on a Spanish beach, and despite looking for them came had to travel home without. So it seems possible that somebody lost theirs while barfing in the toilet and couldn't stand the idea of trying to retrieve them. There may be other possible scenarios, but the mind boggles already.
This illegal tactic was expected. The judiciary is poisoning their position and power. This will start taking their power away. They are not winning anything just delaying laws on the books. You can't hang yourself if you don't have enough rope. That rope is growing in size daily. That is Trump's plan. The impatient are just stressing themselves for nothing. This going to blow up in due time. The fuse is lit. Let it burn and you will get your fireworks.
The Trumpster has more patience than me. He came out of the gate fast but things have slowed down considerably. I guess we knew they would but it's still frustrating. He seems cool as a cucumber so I guess I should relax. He's got this.
I’m of the opinion that the current state of impatience of many is a symptom of technology, or perhaps age, or both. It has catapulted us into a mindset of instant gratification.
You know what they say, “goodness comes to those who wait”. I can wait.
Michael Savage said it best. Judges are nothing but corrupt lawyers hiding under a soiled black robe. Every branch of our government has been corrupted. We are truly living in Biblical times as evil is good, up is down, wrong is right & so on. God help this nation!!
I think Jesus would say the same thing to these judges as He did to the Pharisees and scribes (the judges in His day):
Matthew 23:29-36
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you build the tombs of the prophets and decorate the monuments of the righteous, saying, ‘If we had lived in the days of our fathers, we would not have taken part with them in shedding the blood of the prophets.’ Thus you witness against yourselves that you are sons of those who murdered the prophets. Fill up, then, the measure of your fathers. You serpents, you brood of vipers, how are you to escape being sentenced to hell? Therefore I send you prophets and wise men and scribes, some of whom you will kill and crucify, and some you will flog in your synagogues and persecute from town to town, so that on you may come all the righteous blood shed on earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah the son of Barachiah, whom you murdered between the sanctuary and the altar. Truly, I say to you, all these things will come upon this generation.
The truth is hard to take sometimes. Jesus wasn't all sweetness and light in his time on earth. He was here to tell us what we need to know. One thing we need to know is that we do not get to decide what is right and what is wrong. The Lord decided that from the begining. Each time we do something stupid like this, it hastens our demise.
Another great article Don. I am constantly puzzled by those who wish to push the Nation into another “civil” war. Lord I pray that we will not need bullets to set this ship back on course, but I am prepared. Much more than the ones pushing for this “color revolution”, I can assure you. 🤬
I go back to my original thought: a hot civil war is inevitable in this country.
We’re already in civil disorder.
Riots. Murders. Invasion. Government fraud. Lawyers doing what they want. All this is occurring. Without temperance.
The entire reason we created a common law was to calm the emotions of the people. Allow an orderly process to solve problems rather than fists, stones, swords, and guns. The left wants only to create more violence. Thats more power for them.
If the lawyers don’t start lawyering, then we will have no choice but to start “adjudicating” situations for ourselves.
But you also thought we were headed to a hot Civil War before the November election. But Trump won--and look what wonderful, massive, progress Trump has peaceably achieved so far.
Honeymoon is over. Trump needs (through the process) to arrest the obvious lawbreakers in the last admin. Where’s Bongino?
I know. I know. That would start a bad precedent. That already started with the last admin. It’s time to put thousands in court to defend themselves. Public courts. Not the current system. Can’t trust them.
If he doesn’t start jailing these people, we will not survive.
There is a flood of frustration flowing against the DOJ and the FBI. Barring an unseen force nobody on the outside can see, I trust these newly appointed leaders know they were charged with confronting the corruption of recent years. Again, barring unseen forces stopping them, I think it is still too early to judge. It takes time (more than a few months?) to research and prepare the cases. Records have been deleted/destroyed. Tracks have been covered. The DOJ may be talking with whistleblowers and deciding on immunity to obtain the necessary footing for the case. And, they still must navigate the manic-depressive court system we are talking about in today's post.
I believe it's coming. Give it reasonable time. Christmas is coming.
I agree, there need to be trials and convictions. But we are only 90 days into Trump's Presidency. Yes, for most of us our patience has been exhausted by this long ordeal. But it would be counterproductive to let impatience get us to "throw in the towel" just as this huge ship is finally making it's slow but steady turnaround.
It may be in process as we speak. These are difficult and intricate cases. And the first people they go after may be the lower rung ones that are capable of testifying against the higher up ones, which is exactly what we need.
Actually, there are sound legal foundations for prosecuting all the Biden officials who facilitated the recent alien invasion. Title 8, U.S.C. § 1324(a) defines several distinct offenses related to aliens.
For example, subsection 1324(a)(1)(i)-(v) prohibits alien smuggling, domestic transportation of unauthorized aliens, concealing or harboring unauthorized aliens, encouraging or inducing unauthorized aliens to enter the United States, and engaging in a conspiracy or aiding and abetting any of the preceding acts. Subsection 1324(a)(2) prohibits "bringing or attempting to bring unauthorized aliens to the United States in any manner whatsoever, even at a designated port of entry."
ALL THESE THINGS WERE DONE, with great abandon, by FJB's functionaries.
I agree. FBI needs to gather its evidence and see a Kristalmorn. 430 AM raids. SWAT teams. Busting down doors. Trump on national TV at 8 AM explaining that he just arrested all the traitors on these immigration crimes. And he should warn the dissenters to be measured I. Their disagreement. Another “summer of love” will end in harsh crackdowns.
Sounds 3rd Worldish. But it must be done to reestablish trust in our justice system. On all accounts.
That is quite true, but it goes back a long way, which MAY have made it legal. Remember the federal judges who ordered wild spending on schools, including school busing? And they got away with it.
Marbury is on its last legs, and those powers enumerated specifically in the Constitution as executive powers are about to be used to ignore the Supreme Court. We are about to get an Andrew Jackson moment. The citizenry is in Trump's corner on this one, and the judiciary's unwillingness to defend J6 protestors or President Trump cannot survive trying to give more rights to illegal aliens. It is a fight SCOTUS will lose. And lose badly.
Yes, Jackson's case was as you describe. But the overall tenor is about the same. I think that Trump would prefer to not do that. I think he is looking for a deal. The question is, does Roberts feel the same way?
The Court has to realize that at some point the voters are going to demand Trump ignore any Court ruling on the executives enumerated powers, especially on immigration, unless they rein things in.
And if that happens, the Left will scream that Trump is following in Jackson's racist footsteps. With results that are hard to predict, since this is two centuries later.
I have been watching and listening to the judiciary debacle from my equatorial living hangout in northeast Brasil, Don. Constancy of temperature and sunlight is good for my health.

It’s coming. I can feel it. People are seething that justice is not being served. That will lead to violence. It always does.
That’s why I retired to a tiny little remote rural hollar in WV to escape the madness.
Stay in the fight. There is nowhere to hide my friend.
I did my fighting for this country. Next time, I’m fighting for my own family. And I will not be merciful.
I hear ya but there will be nowhere to hide when it happens.
You are a wise man.
As are you
Thank you , Sir. We are in the same bunker.
I reckon, in our next war (let's say against China), our soldier will have to present "due process" before firing a bullet.
You are correct.
And BTW, maybe a bit off track but can we all agree that Pam Bondi is an unmitigated disaster?
She needs to deliver quickly. If not, Ken Paxton. would be a bulldog replacement.
No. Why join the left? She’s not working hard!
Roberts is mad Trump FAA bans UAL, AA and DL to honor his ‘Judicial Platinum’ on Epstein Airlines…
👍
Sounds like tough duty.
“Do you have a passport and a visa? If the answer is no, buh-bye, fella.”
Due process applies to deprivation of life, liberty and property. Foreigners without a visa have no protected right to remain.
Thank you for this column. This situation is outrageous. One point that particularly stood out to me was that "...the federal government faced 14 universal injunctions in the first 3 years of the Biden administration, compared to the 15 leveled against Trump in one month alone."

It's only okay for a Democrat president to deport anyone.
That rule will not hold. A 4th grader can see it is absurd.
While I'm in agreement, we need a better handle for Xiden appointments. I call Barry's Bozo's Obamunist, but we need a good prefix for Zhou's appointees.
Sniffy Judge Brian Murphy?
I touch kids Judge Murphy?
Ukrainian Bribes Judge Murphy?
Demented imbecile Judge Murphy? I like that one.
In the end, all of them appointed by Barry and Zhou are Soros judges.
Please don't be making excuses for Pam Bondi. She is a disaster. But yes, she does look all prim and proper on FOX every night.
Too soon to judge.
It may be that she is working frantically beneath the surface to pull off a strike that ends lawfare, but I'm skeptical.
That's what we keep hearing... hope you are right and I am wrong.
Been thinking about it while I work. Brain Dead! For example. Braindead supreme court justice Ketanji Brown Jackson.
Bravo, TPG! Very well said.
So the kakistocracy that was the FJB administration has been replaced by a kritarchy which has been deranged by the TDS. What happened to Kavanaugh, Gorsuch, and Barrett?! Are they being held hostage or their children kidnapped and the ransom is their acquiescence in this atrocity?
We are in great danger.
Robert’s name is on the unseen Epstein list. I suspect that the others have been coercvanaughed to gorsuch a degree that they can’t barrett
👍😁
Why haven't we seen the Epstein list as promised??? Pam Bondi?
Yes, the danger is a bureaucracy, courts, and many others in the media/gov't, "NGO" complex that have forgotten that this is a Republic, OF the people.
Forget whether we respect (fill in the blank). It is clear that these demons don't respect the People of this country.
Don’s pissed. Thank God.

Alito and Thomas are both Catholics.
We can always count on the well reasoned approach of Alito & Thomas - the others, not so much, especially Barrett!
Barrett -- what a disappointment!
Trump was warned against Barrett but was pushed into a woman.
This judicial revolt just can't go on. Something is going to give and it's likely to be ugly, but I think there needs to be a reckoning. It just can't go on.
Aware of this, and God bless them. But this is but 2 of 7.
That’s only part of the problem.
Doesn’t Hillsdale have a law school?
It's time to question the value of law schools as well as of state bars. Justice Robert Jackson, whom Don mentioned, simply apprenticed and read law books; and yet he was appointed to preside over the unprecedented Nuremberg trials, and his opinions in many other cases make for fantastic reading.

And yet, here we have school boards and teachers and Barfbergs insisting on indoctrinating little kids in their charge with the most repulsive garbage.
Forwarded this to my favorite legal podcaster Robert Barnes of "Viva/Barnes" on Rumble / Locals
Interesting--thanks for sharing that.
What .puzzles me most is this: a foreigner's presence in this country is a privilege, not a right.

Great point. I like it. Snatch up the illegals and spirit them away in the night. Let them fight from outside the borders.
Yes, spirit them away in the night the way many of them were spirited in during the night into conservative communities by the Biden administration!
You clearly explain the absurdity of the recent court actions and decisions on this issue. By doing so, you are also illuminating illogic of lawfare in its raw and un-media-censored form.

Interesting take on this mess. I like it, thank you.
Why is it we seem to forget how Trump operates? Prepare for the unexpected.
The Trumpster has more patience than me. He came out of the gate fast but things have slowed down considerably. I guess we knew they would but it's still frustrating. He seems cool as a cucumber so I guess I should relax. He's got this.
I’m of the opinion that the current state of impatience of many is a symptom of technology, or perhaps age, or both. It has catapulted us into a mindset of instant gratification.
You know what they say, “goodness comes to those who wait”. I can wait.
I sure hope you are right, and it's true: Trump and his staff may have prepared for this.
Whoever was operating Biden’s auto pen got a lot of district court appointments through.
If more Senators questioned court nominees like Senator Kennedy does we would be in a much better place.
Most are either too dumb, too lazy or both.
Michael Savage said it best. Judges are nothing but corrupt lawyers hiding under a soiled black robe. Every branch of our government has been corrupted. We are truly living in Biblical times as evil is good, up is down, wrong is right & so on. God help this nation!!

I pray the same, but fear the idiocy is going to intensify until there is no ither option.
I believe you are correct.
I go back to my original thought: a hot civil war is inevitable in this country.
We’re already in civil disorder.
Riots. Murders. Invasion. Government fraud. Lawyers doing what they want. All this is occurring. Without temperance.
The entire reason we created a common law was to calm the emotions of the people. Allow an orderly process to solve problems rather than fists, stones, swords, and guns. The left wants only to create more violence. Thats more power for them.
If the lawyers don’t start lawyering, then we will have no choice but to start “adjudicating” situations for ourselves.
Anarchy
But you also thought we were headed to a hot Civil War before the November election. But Trump won--and look what wonderful, massive, progress Trump has peaceably achieved so far.
Honeymoon is over. Trump needs (through the process) to arrest the obvious lawbreakers in the last admin. Where’s Bongino?
I know. I know. That would start a bad precedent. That already started with the last admin. It’s time to put thousands in court to defend themselves. Public courts. Not the current system. Can’t trust them.
If he doesn’t start jailing these people, we will not survive.
There is a flood of frustration flowing against the DOJ and the FBI. Barring an unseen force nobody on the outside can see, I trust these newly appointed leaders know they were charged with confronting the corruption of recent years. Again, barring unseen forces stopping them, I think it is still too early to judge. It takes time (more than a few months?) to research and prepare the cases. Records have been deleted/destroyed. Tracks have been covered. The DOJ may be talking with whistleblowers and deciding on immunity to obtain the necessary footing for the case. And, they still must navigate the manic-depressive court system we are talking about in today's post.
I believe it's coming. Give it reasonable time. Christmas is coming.
I know
GMTA. I just posted similar thoughts in reply to Greg above a moment ago.
I agree, there need to be trials and convictions. But we are only 90 days into Trump's Presidency. Yes, for most of us our patience has been exhausted by this long ordeal. But it would be counterproductive to let impatience get us to "throw in the towel" just as this huge ship is finally making it's slow but steady turnaround.
Agreed. I’m patient. To a point. Most of my contacts are depressed that little has been done on the political crimes issue.
It may be in process as we speak. These are difficult and intricate cases. And the first people they go after may be the lower rung ones that are capable of testifying against the higher up ones, which is exactly what we need.
Actually, there are sound legal foundations for prosecuting all the Biden officials who facilitated the recent alien invasion. Title 8, U.S.C. § 1324(a) defines several distinct offenses related to aliens.
For example, subsection 1324(a)(1)(i)-(v) prohibits alien smuggling, domestic transportation of unauthorized aliens, concealing or harboring unauthorized aliens, encouraging or inducing unauthorized aliens to enter the United States, and engaging in a conspiracy or aiding and abetting any of the preceding acts. Subsection 1324(a)(2) prohibits "bringing or attempting to bring unauthorized aliens to the United States in any manner whatsoever, even at a designated port of entry."
ALL THESE THINGS WERE DONE, with great abandon, by FJB's functionaries.
I agree. FBI needs to gather its evidence and see a Kristalmorn. 430 AM raids. SWAT teams. Busting down doors. Trump on national TV at 8 AM explaining that he just arrested all the traitors on these immigration crimes. And he should warn the dissenters to be measured I. Their disagreement. Another “summer of love” will end in harsh crackdowns.
Sounds 3rd Worldish. But it must be done to reestablish trust in our justice system. On all accounts.
Am with you on this!
This whole scenario is so infuriating - obviously those judges have a God complex and somebody needs to strike them down, preferably by lightening!
They don'y have a "God Complex", they are simply following orders.
That is quite true, but it goes back a long way, which MAY have made it legal. Remember the federal judges who ordered wild spending on schools, including school busing? And they got away with it.
I’d prolly send Brittney Griner back. Just saying.
Hah!
On the poll, I thought about press passes for Hamas but then remembered the courts already granted AP that access.
Marbury is on its last legs, and those powers enumerated specifically in the Constitution as executive powers are about to be used to ignore the Supreme Court. We are about to get an Andrew Jackson moment. The citizenry is in Trump's corner on this one, and the judiciary's unwillingness to defend J6 protestors or President Trump cannot survive trying to give more rights to illegal aliens. It is a fight SCOTUS will lose. And lose badly.
Yes, to that Jim.
I seriously hope you are right, but it would take someone like Trump to say: "Judge Barfberg has spoken. Now let him enforce it."
Unfortunately, Andrew Jackson said that in a very bad, notorious case that thanks to him produced a disaster for the Indians of Georgia.
Yes, Jackson's case was as you describe. But the overall tenor is about the same. I think that Trump would prefer to not do that. I think he is looking for a deal. The question is, does Roberts feel the same way?
The Court has to realize that at some point the voters are going to demand Trump ignore any Court ruling on the executives enumerated powers, especially on immigration, unless they rein things in.
And if that happens, the Left will scream that Trump is following in Jackson's racist footsteps. With results that are hard to predict, since this is two centuries later.
Time for martial law-the country is being attacked constantly by dark sources.
Yes, it has been, but a heck of a lot of light has been shown in recent months on previously hidden and dark places.
