Far-left Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) will face a primary challenge from former Minneapolis City Councilmember Don Samuels — the same individual she narrowly defeated in the last election cycle. Samuels made a name for himself in 2022 after coming within striking distance of unseating Omar as the party’s nominee. He lost by just over two percent of the vote, garnering 48.2 percent to Omar’s 50.3 percent — a difference of 2,466 votes. Samuels believes the “trajectory” of his campaign is “still intact.”

FTX’s former general counsel, Can Sun, and former Alameda Research software developer Armani Ferrante have teamed up to start Trek Labs, a Dubai-based company that recently obtained a license from the Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority, or VARA, which regulates digital...

Calling Donald Trump a "fascist" is Joe Scarborough's stock in trade. He works it into his spiel almost as often as he brings up the fact that he once was a Congressman. But "fascist" apparently no longer suffices to express the depths of Joe's disdain for the Donald. On today's Morning Joe, Scarborough declared that Trump has gone "full-on Hitler." Trump's sin was vowing to root out "vermin," his term for "radical-left thugs." That wasn't Scarborough's only verbal gaffe of the morning. Scarborough twice described--without having the guts to name--Trump's spokesman as a "fat, white, pink boy." Get the rest...

Nigel Farage is to launch a legal battle with NatWest over the closure of his accounts at its private bank subsidiary Coutts. The debanking scandal ultimately led to the resignation of Alison Rose, the chief executive of NatWest, in July and the departure of Peter Flavel, the chief executive of Coutts, soon after. The former leader of Ukip and the Brexit party said he is instructing lawyers to take action against NatWest, with the aim of turning it into a class action. An independent review into the decision to close Farage’s accounts found that although there were “serious failings” in...

So it’s been unsettling to find out the Avengers are Earth-bound, after all. “The Marvels,” the 33rd installment in the MCU and the sequel to 2019’s billion-dollar behemoth “Captain Marvel,” cratered with $47 million in North America and $63 million internationally — the lowest opening weekend in the franchise’s history. Before this weekend, the worst debut belonged to 2008’s “The Incredible Hulk” ($55.4 million, not adjusted for inflation), which premiered at the dawn of the MCU.

On November 13, Felix Unger was asked to remove himself from his place of residence; that request came from his wife. Deep down, he knew she was right, but he also knew that some day he would return to her. With nowhere else to go, he appeared at the home of his childhood friend, Oscar Madison. Several years earlier, Madison's wife had thrown him out, requesting that he never return. Can two divorced men share an apartment without driving each other crazy?

‘I’ve been a left-winger all my life. I don’t believe in violence. I always wanted co-existence,’ says the British-Israeli artist. ‘Even in our darkest hours, I told my children that in Gaza there were mothers like me, and children like them, and they are not the devil. Now I realise how naive I was. ‘There is still a part of me that wants peace, of course I do. But these monsters – Hamas – have to be defeated. And the world has to help us. ‘What they did happened once. It happened to us. But it could happen to you,...

Democrats would reportedly advise President Joe Biden to “heave” so-called “Bidenomics” into the “dumpster” after polling shows just 14 percent of voters say Biden has made them better off. The reported unsolicited advice signals infighting among Democrats and the president’s uphill battle to convince voters he deserves reelection. “Perhaps the most overwhelming economic messaging advice I picked up from Democrats was for him to heave ‘Bidenomics’ into the dumpster, “Politico’s Jonathan Martin wrote Monday after interviewing dozens of Democrats and never-Trump Republicans. The White House defines Bidenomcs with three pillars intended to cure “longstanding challenges that held America back—including rising...

The non-binary and transgender extravaganza on display this Thanksgiving will be brought to you by Macy’s during their annually sponsored Thanksgiving Day Parade.

Justin David Sullivan, who personally identifies as non-binary, will be featured in the & Juliet parade performance. On stage in the musical, Sullivan plays the...

MSNBC host Joe Scarborough said Monday on his show “Morning Joe” that former President Donald Trump was using rhetoric that was the same as “Mussolini and other fascists from the past.” During a weekend rally, Trump said, “In honor of our great Veterans on Veterans Day, we pledge to you that we will root out the communists, marxists, fascists, and radical left thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country. That lie, steal, and cheat on elections.” Scarborough said, “I think he should probably give some pay some royalties to Mussolini’s family trust because when he starts...

MIT has just said that it will not give academic suspensions to students who physically prevented Jewish students from entering the campus. As far as I'm concerned, MIT is now run by Nazis.

Nearly 17,000 people have signed an online petition decrying a 'non-binary and transgender extravaganza' at the upcoming Thanksgiving Day Parade, over two gender non-conforming performers in the line-up. A petition organized by One Million Moms, part of the conservative American Family Association, says the event will expose 'tens of millions of viewers at home to the liberal LGBTQ agenda.' The sponsor of the event, the department store Macy's, did not answer DailyMail.com requests for comment. Tie-ups between trans performers and corporations have proven divisive in recent months. Bud Light's partnership with trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney led to a backlash and...

On Thursday, two major GOP donors saw the writing on the wall and decided to back the leading Republican presidential candidate and 45th President Donald Trump for the nomination as his lead in the polls continues to cement both nationally and in the early primary states. One of the donors, Robert Bigelow, who decided to back Trump, actually abandoned DeSantis to do so given that DeSantis has failed to create enough momentum nationally and, despite his best efforts, has been unable to significantly dent Trump's lead in Iowa.Bigelow, who is the founder of Budget Suites of America and Bigelow Aerospace,...
