The most consequential question in Washington over the past century is what led to Donald Trump's presidency. How
did this vulgar outsider without any political experience win a general election in 2016? Books have explored and will continue to explore that question. Whatever the answers are – there are many - the crux of Trump's ascension emanates from voters realizing they trust a political novice more than they do establishment Washington. Many Americans feel that way still, nearly eight years later. Trump is now the polling and betting favorite to win in November. But what about 2028? Where will the...

President Joe Biden lost his temper at a TikTok star during a special White House meeting with social media influencers, even threatening to throw his phone across the room. Independent
journalist and social media darling Jonathan M. Katz started recording Biden, pressing him about his support for Israel during the war in Gaza. He asked him what he would do to prevent the ‘genocide’ that was taking place with American-funded weapons. The president tried to sidestep the questions, claiming he was working to reduce casualties in Gaza. But when Katz pressed him on the issue, the president grew impatient. ‘I...

is the humanity,' she wrote... Ortega's former Scream VII co-star Melissa Barrera was in November dumped from the horror film after making her own posts in support of Palestinians. However, hers were more provocative than Ortega's and were deemed 'hate speech' by production company Spyglass. 'Gaza is currently being treated like a concentration camp,' she wrote in one Instagram story. 'Cornering everyone...

Top GOP lawmaker announces early exit, leaving Republicans with temporary one-seat majority

Rep. Mike Gallagher, R-Wis., chairman of the House select committee on China, announced he's leaving Congress on April 19, which will temporarily leave House Republicans with just a one-seat majority. Gallagher
revealed in February that he would not be running for a fifth term in the House, a shocking announcement for someone long considered a rising star within the Republican Party. His early departure will mean that Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., can only afford to lose one GOP lawmaker on any vote that falls along party lines. That will likely remain the case until June, when there's a special election...

Republican Alabama Sen. Katie Britt pulled no punches as she delivered her party's rebuttal to President Biden's State of the Union address Thursday night, ripping him for his "despicable" job handling the border crisis, as well as his promotion of "Bidenomics" amid the rising consumer costs plaguing American families. A
rising star within the GOP, the 42-year-old Britt's selection to deliver the rebuttal last week was met with widespread praise — even from some Democrats — as she continues to build a national profile despite never holding elected office prior to her election in the 2022 midterms.

FIRST EVER EARTH-SIZED PLANET ORBITING A SUN-LIKE STAR HAS BEEN DISCOVERED LURKING IN OUR SOLAR BACK YARD

The Debrief ^
| JANUARY 15, 2024 | CHRISTOPHER PLAIN
Astronomers have discovered an Earth-sized planet orbiting a star similar to the sun, only 73 light years away. Previous
studies using the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) had spotted two larger planets around the star in 2020; the new planet was discovered during follow-up observations designed to confirm the earlier findings. Astronomers have previously found Earth-sized planets around distant stars, but nearly all of those have been found orbiting smaller, cooler red dwarf stars instead of G-type main sequence stars like our sun. The relatively close nature of the new find also opens up opportunities to study the planet more...

Gateway Pundit ^
| Jan. 4, 2024 9:45 am | By Jack Gist, The Western Journal
A sure way to make a movie flop is to hire a director who alienates a big chunk of the audience before the film is even released. Will
Disney ever learn? Not until it goes broke, it would seem. The company has hired activist and documentary filmmaker Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy to direct the next “Star Wars” movie, slated to be released in 2026. Obaid-Chinoy is on record saying, “We’re in 2024 now, and I think it’s about time that we had a woman come forward to shape the story in a galaxy far, far away.” In case Obaid-Chinoy isn’t aware, Lucasfilm...

Michael B. Jordan Rumored To Star In Live-Action “Hercules”

I don’t think the House of Mouse can read the room. Months
after people showed their dissatisfaction with the new Snow White’s direction, they’re now reportedly working on a Hercules remake. According to Inside The Magic, Disney wants to cast Marvel star Michael B. Jordan as the Greek demigod. The outlet has stated that this news is unconfirmed, but given how Disney has turned into a rage-baiting machine by swapping out redheads with POC (rather than creating new stories for them), I wouldn’t be surprised if Jordan does get cast as Hercules. However, the rumor mill is already rampant on...

Four days after the Oct. 7 Hamas terror attacks in Israel, WME invited Steve Leder, the rabbi from Wilshire Boulevard Temple, to visit the agency’s Beverly Hills headquarters. He
came to provide comfort for employees reeling after the worst attack on the Jewish people since the Holocaust. Although the event was not mandatory and Leder’s speech was considered secular, several staffers voiced complaints, which made their way to WME co-chairmen Richard Weitz and Christian Muirhead. Instead of caving, WME invited Anti-Defamation League CEO Jonathan Greenblatt to speak to the agency on Nov. 1. Greenblatt didn’t mince words, according to those...
