Covington Catholic high school students were subjected to doxxing and threats of violence after they peacefully fended off their confronters — including the Black Hebrew Israelites and a Native activist named Nathan Phillips — near the Lincoln Memorial at the March for Life.
For a while, it seemed like the media was running the table on this story, sending a message to the world that any peaceful people wearing MAGA hats — even Catholic teenagers — will be on the front lines of the cyber war against President Donald Trump and his supporters.
Then something beautiful happened.
A round-the-clock MAGA movement operation exposed the truth of what really happened during the incident, and pulled back the layers of deception that the media uses to concoct false narratives for Democrat and establishment political gain.
Now, the Covington Catholic high school students have the chance to clear their names, and to tell President Trump firsthand about the conditions of intimidation that exist for Trump supporters across the country.
What an accomplishment for these fine young men under trying circumstances!

Appeals Court Refuses to Expunge Joe Arpaio’s Contempt Conviction After Presidential Pardon
A judge isn’t happy about the pardon.
A federal appeals court is refusing to expunge former Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpario’s contempt of court conviction, after the sheriff was granted a presidential pardon by President Trump.
Such a legal move is rare if not unprecedented for the recipient of a presidential pardon. Usually federal and state court systems dismiss the convictions of people granted presidential pardon.
Arpaio was convicted of contempt of court in 2017 for refusing to change the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Department’s practices after a judge mandated that the agency cease immigration raids.
Three judges of the liberal San Francisco-based 9th Circuit Court upheld a ruling from a lower circuit court refusing to expunge the legal record of Arpaio’s conviction. The move sets new legal precedent for a recipient of a presidential pardon.
Arpaio was a frequent target of Eric Holder and the Obama administration, often coming under intense DOJ scrutiny for the practices of the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Department.
Arpaio ran for the United States Senate in 2018, coming in third in the Republican Primart behind Martha McSally and Kelli Ward. He’s now running for his old position as Maricopa County Sheriff once more at the ripe age of 87.
In any case, presidential pardons have traditionally resulted in dismissal of criminal convictions in federal and state courts. It’s hard to think of the 9th Circuit’s decision to maintain the conviction as anything more than a political slight to President Trump.
