    The Bidens once again traveled to Nantucket, a ritzy island off of Cape Cod for Thanksgiving. The Biden family has spent Thanksgiving in Nantucket nearly every year since 1975. For the last few years the Bidens have crashed at billionaire David Rubenstein’s Nantucket estate. According to The New York Post, the entire Biden clan was spotted shopping at ritzy stores. They also stopped for lunch and refreshments at the Lemon Press before leaving in their motorcade. Joe and Hunter Biden were spotted strolling through downtown Nantucket with the former president’s gaggle of grandchildren in tow during a ritzy shopping trip...

    Three people were wounded during a shooting inside a California mall on Black Friday as shoppers barricaded themselves inside stores and fled for safety during the “complete chaos.” The shooting began outside a Macy’s store at the Westfield Valley Fair Mall in Santa Clara at around 5:40 p.m, according to KRON4. The victims – a 16-year-old girl, a man, and a woman – were found at the scene and rushed to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, officials said. The shooting was described as an “isolated incident,” and there was no active threat to the public, the San Jose Police...

    Following the shooting of two National Guard members in Washington this week, Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) not only wants to deport potentially dangerous “Islamists” — he wants an immediate ban on all “Islam immigrants.” The call was posted on Tuberville’s X account Wednesday, hours before it was announced that one of the Guard victims, 20-year-old Sara Beckstrom, had died despite valiant efforts by doctors to save her life following the shooting. Still hospitalized and in critical condition is 24-year-old Andrew Wolfe, who with Beckstrom was was shot multiple times while on duty near the Farragut West Metro station. “The Afghan...

    Friday on CNN’s “News Central,” Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) said that President Donald Trump’s deployment of “military troops in the nation‘s capital or in any city” should be reconsidered because it caused two members of the National Guard to be shot in Washington, D.C. on Wednesday. Wasserman Schultz said, “This is a deeply concerning situation, but, you know, it’s one that I think we have to — it begs the question, would an individual have flown across the country to target law enforcement officers in Washington, D.C.? And, I mean, the answer is likely no. So why wasn‘t the...

    A dignified transfer procession was held on behalf of 20-year-old Sarah Beckstrom, who was fatally shot the day before Thanksgiving. Although she was treated at the hospital, she died on the holiday. The suspect in the shooting, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, is an Afghan national who has been charged with the shooting of Beckstrom as well as Andrew Wolfe, and was hit with a first-degree murder count after Beckstrom's death. The FBI is investigating the targeted shooting as an act of terrorism. On Thanksgiving evening, first responders in Washington, DC conducted a dignified transfer of Beckstrom's body from Medstar Hospital. EMS, firefighters,...

    Now for the feel-good story of the week: A California immigration judge wept after being abruptly fired mid-asylum hearing, making her the latest victim of the Trump administration’s deportation crackdown. Won’t someone please stop laughing and share in the tears of this victim? Shuting Chen, 41, of San Francisco, was halfway through a hearing on Friday for three Venezuelan siblings who had fled persecution and waited years for their day in court when an email labeled ‘notice of termination’ flashed onto her screen. Chen was appointed by Biden’s handlers in 2022. ‘I started to cry in my courtroom in front...
  • “ARE YOU STUPID?” — Pres. Trump OBLITERATES “Reporter” Who Asked Why He Blames BIDEN for Afghan Terrorist Entering the U.S. — Holds Up Photo of Packed Evacuation Plane to PROVE His Point

    President Donald Trump obliterated a so-called “reporter” who dared to question why he holds Joe Biden responsible for allowing the Afghan terrorist, who ambushed two National Guard members in Washington, D.C., into the United States, which left a member of the West Virginia National Guard dead and another in critical condition. The exchange happened during a press gaggle that quickly turned into a masterclass in how to handle the corrupt press. The reporter had the audacity to ask: “Why do you blame the Biden administration?” As if it’s not crystal clear that Crooked Joe’s bungled withdrawal flooded our country with...

    “Seditionist 6” member Elissa Slotkin predicted an incident with the National Guard in DC one month ago. This is sick and looking more and more like another Deep State color revolution against the American people. The Deep State went on full attack during President Trump’s first term and manufactured a color revolution in this country to remove President Trump from office. The media, Big Tech, COVID, BLM riots, and more culminated in the stolen 2020 Election. It was planned and produced by the Deep State. It was evil, corrupt, and an attack on the people of America again. There are...

    Donald Trump has revoked every executive order Joe Biden signed with an autopen - escalating the battle over the legitimacy of the ailing ex-president's administration. 'I am hereby canceling all executive orders, and anything else that was not directly signed by Crooked Joe Biden, because the people who operated the autopen did so illegally,' Trump wrote on Truth Social on Friday. 'Joe Biden was not involved in the autopen process and, if he says he was, he will be brought up on charges of perjury.' Presidents may legally undo executive orders signed by their predecessors, including pardons, however there is...

    Why wasn’t Kamala Harris cleaning her collard greens in the bathtub this year? Kamala Harris on Thursday posted a TikTok video of herself preparing Thanksgiving dinner with her nieces. Harris chose to post a small clip herself preparing collard greens. Of course she did. Is she preparing to run for office again? “We are preparing collard greens!” Harris said. Recall that last year on the campaign trail Kamala Harris told a Georgia voter she used to clean her collard greens in the bathtub. Maybe her Indian mother taught her that? Kamala then told the Georgia voter that she uses Tabasco...

    "This thinking is perhaps best represented by Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson, who mix in their shows topics about aliens, the occult, and schemes of ultra-secret agencies To Owens and Carlson’s conspiratorial minds, what officials tell us is never what actually happened. The absence of competing evidence is a point in favor of conspiracy, as are attempts to disprove it—both are seen as signs of a cover-up to suppress the truth. The sickness of the mind that has gone mainstream on the right has its roots at least partially in QAnon, which, nearly a decade ago, was a conspiracy relegated...

    MADISON, Wis. (WMTV) - Governor Tony Evers announced the theme for the 2025 State Capitol Holiday Tree Wednesday afternoon. The governor said the “Learning Tree” will feature handmade ornaments celebrating and thanking Wisconsinites who “support, educate, empower and inspire” students. The tree’s theme rounds off the governor’s “Year of the Kid” declaration, Evers’ year-long emphasis on Wisconsin students and K-12 schools. A former educator himself, Evers said he could not think of a better way to celebrate the “Year of the Kid” during the holiday season. “‘The Learning Tree’ [is meant] to honor our educators, administrators, custodians, librarians, child care...

    There’s a particular kind of innocence in believing that generosity will be recognized for what it is. A nation opens its doors, offers a warm meal, provides a safe bed, and assumes the visitor understands the privilege. For decades, America set out the banquet, refilled the bowls, and quietly told itself that this time, surely, the guests would take only what they needed. But people who are constantly fed start to forget who stocked the pantry. They come back with friends. Then relatives. Then demands. And the hosts, too polite to object, keep ladling stew while pretending not to notice...

    The era of open bowls and borders is over. Those who arrived under fraudulent pretenses who sneer at the country that feeds them are out. Those who came here to undermine America instead of join it, out. Those who treat our generosity like weakness, out. Those who believe they can live in the American household without contributing to it, are out. This isn’t cruelty. It’s stewardship.

    MOULTONBOROUGH, NH — To make the most of the Thanksgiving holiday, the Richardson family reportedly instituted helpful debate rules allowing for 2-minute speeches followed by a 1-minute rebuttal. "We have to have order, people," Henry Richardson said. "No shouting over people, or you're not getting any dessert." According to sources, pre-planned debate topics for the Richardson family Thanksgiving include, but are not limited to, the American school system, January 6, and cranberry sauce. Strangely missing from the family's planned discourse is a debate on transgenderism, owing in large part to the fact that cousin Freddie's new name is Francesca. Heather...

    President Donald Trump continued to poke fun at former President Joe Biden’s golf game during a Thanksgiving call with military members. One of the petty officers on the call with Trump at the White House asked the 47th president what his "true golf handicap" was, while also asking this: "Are you and President Biden going to play that golf match?" the petty officer said. Trump’s response to the petty officer was one of confidence, as he quickly said he would "love" to face off against Biden on the links. "I mean, I’ve invited him, but he doesn’t want to show...

    President Trump says he’ll ‘permanently pause migration’ from all ‘Third World Countries’ President Trump said late Thursday that he intends to “permanently pause” migration from all “Third World Countries,” to allow the US to “fully recover” in a Thanksgiving Truth Social post. “Even as we have progressed technologically, Immigration Policy has eroded those gains and living conditions for many,” Trump wrote late Thursday night. “I will permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries to allow the U.S. system to fully recover, terminate all of the millions of Biden illegal admissions, including those signed by Sleepy Joe Biden’s Autopen, and...
