    Conservative activist Scott Presler is sounding the alarm for Republicans, warning that unless the party immediately changes its strategy, November could bring devastating losses. In a late-night video, Presler said he wasn’t trying to spread doom and gloom, but reality. “I’m not here to bring you a happy video. I’m here to give you a dose of reality,” he began. "I'm here to tell you, Republicans are gonna lose everything this November unless we change things and quickly." Presler pointed to three key battlegrounds—Virginia, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania—where Republicans are in danger of losing everything. “You’re gonna lose the governorship...

    Defense Secretary Hegseth slammed Microsoft for using Chinese engineers on Pentagon data, ending the program and warning that Big Tech’s ties to Beijing put U.S. security at risk.Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced last week that the military would cease using a Microsoft program that relied on Chinese engineers. This obviously presented a major security issue, which Hegseth noted.“If you’re thinking ‘America first’ and common sense, this doesn’t pass either of those tests,” Hegseth said of the program. “The use of Chinese nationals to service Department of Defense cloud environments? It’s over.”He also declared that the DOD had delivered a formal...

    Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., called for the 25th Amendment to the Constitution to be used against President Donald Trump on Friday, suggesting he was unfit, during a discussion about his removal of Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve's Board of Governors. "It is time to call for Article [Amendment] 25 of the Constitution of the United States of America to determine his unfitness, to determine that something’s wrong with this president. And I would suggest that we move very aggressively to talk about the danger to this country and to our democracy and not play around with this, because this...

    In a stunning and rare show of bipartisan cooperation—or perhaps just an overdue reality check-- Democrat Gov. Wes Moore (D-MD) publicly stated his openness to federal support from President Donald Trump to help address the long-standing issues plaguing Baltimore and surrounding areas.You read that right: after years of partisan bickering, finger-pointing, and failed local leadership, even a blue-state Democrat is now asking Trump for help.Moore, a staunch anti-Trumper who has largely aligned himself with progressive urban policies, appears to have had enough. In a recent press briefing, he didn’t mince words: “I would absolutely welcome federal support,” he said, when...

    Cracker Barrel's co-founder has delivered a scathing critique of the restaurant chain's CEO after a botched rebranding. Tommy Lowe, 93, accused Julie Felss Masino of failing to grasp what Cracker Barrel stands for, pointing to her previous stint at Taco Bell. 'They're trying to modernize to be like the competition. Cracker Barrel doesn't have any competition,' Low, who co-founded Cracker Barrel with the late Dan Evins in Lebanon, Tennessee in 1969, told WTVF. 'I heard she was at Taco Bell. What's Taco Bell know about Cracker Barrel and country food? They need to work on the food and service and...

    AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Texas Gov. Greg Abbott on Friday signed into law a new congressional voting map designed to help Republicans gain more seats in the 2026 midterm elections, delivering a win for President Donald Trump and his desire to hold on to a slim GOP majority in the U.S. House.The Texas map drafted in rare mid-decade redistricting prompted fierce protests from Democrats and sparked a gerrymandering tug-of-war for voters in states across the country. “Texas is now more red in the United States Congress,” Abbott said in a video he posted on X of him signing the legislation.Before...

    WASHINGTON — President Trump is moving to cancel nearly $5 billion in congressionally approved foreign aid and peacekeeping spending in a rare “pocket rescission,” The Post has learned — making use of a legally debated maneuver that hasn’t been done in 48 years. Trump on Thursday night notified Congress of his request to cancel the funds, which had been tied up in a court case until earlier in the day. A pocket rescission is a request that’s presented to Congress so late in the fiscal year — which ends Sept. 30 — that it’s made regardless of whether Congress acts....

    Phillips 66 will begin shutting down its 139,000 bpd Los Angeles-area refinery as soon as next week , sources told Reuters, moving forward on a closure plan announced last year. Units at the plant will idle in phases through Q4 2025, with the facility permanently offline by year-end. The decision isn’t a surprise—Phillips 66 said in October it would exit the site, citing “market dynamics.” But it comes with fallout about 600 employees and 300 contractors will lose their jobs by December, with only a handful reassigned to the company’s marine terminal. The company insists it will support workers through...

In an interview with NPR host Ailsa Chang, conducted hours after the killings, Klobuchar used male pronouns to refer to the deceased shooter. After the interview ended, Chang noted the gender of the shooter was "unclear."

    Illegal alien MS-13 gang member and wife beater Kilmar Abrego Garcia is now trying to obtain a gag order against DHS Chief Kristi Noem and US Attorney General Pam Bondi. A federal grand jury in Tennessee recently indicted Kilmar Abrego Garcia for “transporting undocumented migrants within the United States.” He was charged with one count of conspiracy to transport aliens and one count of unlawful transportation of undocumented aliens. Abrego Garcia’s lawyers asked Nashville-based US District Judge Waverly Crenshaw, an Obama appointee, to impose a gag order on Bondi and Noem so he could have a ‘fair trial.’

    Dozens of CDC employees turned a "clap-out" for fired and resigning members of the CDC hierarchy into an impromptu walkout to protest the change of policies imposed by HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Particularly bold were those who shook hands with the former "monkeypox czar," without knowing where that appendage had recently been. The event was the culmination of the tumultuous 30-day reign of CDC Director Susan Monarez, during which she made it abundantly clear that she was not interested in collaborating with RFK, Jr., on his "MAHA" agenda. Once it became clear that Monarez was out and CDC...

    In the wake of the horrific mass shooting at Annunciation Catholic Church in Minneapolis, where two young children were gunned down and 17 others wounded during a school Mass, CNN anchor Jake Tapper has sparked outrage by focusing on the “correct” pronouns for the deranged transgender shooter. The depraved male shooter was born Robert Paul Westman but legally changed his name to Robin M. Westman in 2020 and began identifying as “female.” On Wednesday, he opened fire from outside the church windows, targeting helpless children and parishioners inside. Westman, 23, later died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Authorities recovered a...

    Former national security adviser John Bolton had his home raided by federal agents last week. It caused a stir among those in the liberal media, who immediately ran with the narrative that this FBI visit was politically motivated. Bolton is one of President Trump’s most vocal critics. The authoritarian hysterics from the liberal pundit class were deafening, along with some gaslighting about how Barack Obama and Joe Biden never gave an order to go after their enemies. Now, we’ve learned that the momentum to initiate the eventual raid at the Bolton home started under the Biden administration, which also hindered...
