U.S. — The votes are in. The people have spoken. Donald J. Trump, the 45th President of the United States, has just won his third presidential election in a row. While Electoral College votes are still yet to be ratified, Trump's victory marks an achievement attained by only two predecessors in American history: Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Gladys O'Brian, the 235th head of the Nappanee, Indiana Women's Commissioner Club. "We did it, and no one has ever seen anything like it in the history of mankind, or maybe even the world," said an elated Trump to supporters. "Three elections in...

More than 3,000 Mexican migrants marched towards America on Election Day as after Donald Trump vowed to carry out the 'largest deportation operation in American history'. Men, women and children were seen marching towards the southern US border Tuesday carrying banners that read 'no more migrant blood' and images of the Virgin of Guadalupe, an important religious and cultural symbol in Mexico, as Americans headed to their local polling stations. US Border Patrol was aware the election could trigger mass migrations of asylum seekers, according to sources who told The New York Post that the migrants want to arrive in...

THIS is why we won. Posting for anyone who did not see this.

What if Robert Kennedy Jr was the Democrat candidate? He would definitely have been a bigger competition to Trump compared to Harris, but could he have won? I think there is a learning from this as well - the primaries is important, not to have "appointees" - this has failed with Harris, with Biden and with Hilary.

So far, this election has been unpredictable. After all, who could have foreseen two assassination attempts, a sitting president dropping out after he'd all but secured the nomination and, well, pretty much everything else? But Election Day is here, and it will be hours until we learn who won, and perhaps days before we find out why. Until then, we've asked 17 election experts and analysts to weigh in on the predictions that they are willing to put their names behind before the results are in. Here's what they said.

Former President Donald Trump made breakthrough gains with Hispanics nationwide and substantially improved his standing with black voters in swing states in the 2024 election, according to exit polls. Hispanic men supported Trump on Election Day over Vice President Kamala Harris by a stunning 10-point margin, according to an NBC News exit poll. The former president received 54% support from Hispanic men compared to Harris’ 44% backing. By comparison, Joe Biden won Latino males by a 23-point margin (59%-36%) in the 2020 contest. Harris, 60, also hemorrhaged support from Hispanic women. The vice president received 62% support from Latinas, down...

So, riddle me this? How is it possible we had 145MM voters in the 2020 election and only 137MM last night? The uncounted states have about 4MM. So we are short 4MM. That is 2 states' worth! More proof of the 2020 cheat!

NOAA’s GOES-19, equipped with the world’s first operational space-based coronagraph, is beginning to monitor solar activity and space weather. CCOR-1 observations will soon aid in warning systems for solar disruptions that affect Earth. Credit: NOAA/NASA NOAA’s new Compact Coronagraph, CCOR-1, onboard the GOES-19 satellite, has begun transmitting its first images, revealing solar activities like coronal mass ejections (CMEs). NOAA has released the first images from the Compact Coronagraph (CCOR-1), a powerful solar telescope aboard the new GOES-19 satellite. CCOR-1, the world’s first operational space-based coronagraph, began observing the sun’s corona—the faint, outermost layer of the solar atmosphere—on September 19, 2024....

Kamala Harris' campaign said there are still "votes to count" after she canceled her post-verdict speech at Howard University. "We still have votes to count. We still have states that have not been called yet. We will continue, overnight, to fight to make sure that every vote is counted, that every voice has spoken," Kamala Harris's campaign co-chair Cedric Richmond said. "So you won't hear from the vice president tonight, but you will hear from her tomorrow." Harris, who has not conceded the election, was expected to host her election night party at Howard University in Washington, D.C., a historically...

Donald Trump has been elected the 47th president of the United States, an extraordinary comeback for a former president who refused to accept defeat four years ago, sparked a violent insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, was convicted of felony charges and survived two assassination attempts

The “experts” said it couldn’t be done. They called him a “loser” and an “illegitimate” president whose time in office should be stricken from the pages of history. Political pundits said his refusal to accept the mail-in-ballot-fraud-tainted 2020 election results made him an “insurrectionist” and a “dangerous threat to democracy.” Democrat prosecutors and judges threw his supporters in jail. Democrat operatives in the FBI and DOJ insinuated that he is a “Russian spy” and “domestic enemy” who should be convicted of treason. The most hoity-toity “reporters” from the fanciest newspapers in the land said that Americans would never elect a...

Van Jones became emotional as he thought of the marginalized Americans who feared what Donald Trump would do as president. Sitting on the CNN election night panel just before 1am EST, knowing Trump was almost certain to win, Jones' voice cracked as he spoke. 'I'm thinking about the people who are not part of anybody's elite, who are hurting tonight,' he said. 'There are African-American women who know a little bit about being talked down to. They know about having their economic dreams crushed. 'They tried to dream a big dream over the last couple of months. Tonight, they are...

American actress Sydney Sweeney says she voted for Donald Trump.

Transcript from ChatGPT: Q: What do you expect the next couple of months to be like once he's in? A: Well, look, he has an opportunity here to try to unite the country after a huge victory. This is a mandate. He's won the national popular vote for the first time for a Republican since 2004. This is a big deal. He isn’t just backing into office; this is a mandate to do what he said he would do: get the economy working again for regular working-class Americans, fix immigration, try to get crime under control, and reduce chaos in...

As Democrats all over the world weep into their kombucha, I’m afraid I have only one thing to say: you brought this on yourselves. I’m sure Kamala Harris is a perfectly nice woman but at no point during this campaign did she demonstrate the strength of character, vision and sheer star power required to win the White House. Many Americans – certainly most Americans I know – have deep reservations about Donald Trump. They find him distasteful, divisive, deeply dodgy. And indeed, he can be all of those things. But even the staunchest of liberals felt deeply disappointed and let...

U.S. — On the eve of a hotly contested presidential election, top Democrats warned the American people that if Trump is elected, it would likely be the end of bureaucracy as we know it. The sobering news came as voters prepared to head to the polls tomorrow, with many prominent members of the Democratic Party issuing public pleas for people to turn out and defend the federal government's bureaucratic establishment from certain death. "This is a truly dire situation," said Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. "If Donald Trump gets back in office, there is a high risk that he will...

Kamala Harris was carried to Election Day with the biggest and most favorable media bias in history .... The big three networks that dominated TV coverage ended up giving her coverage that was 78% positive to just 15% positive for President Donald Trump. That 63-point advantage is the biggest in history and about three times what 2004 Democratic nominee John Kerry had over President George W. Bush. ... This year’s coverage imbalance was slightly worse than in 2020, when TV news broke all records in providing Joe Biden a 58-point advantage. The bias was hard to miss this year. Near...

Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón, who ascended to office vowing sweeping reforms to the criminal justice system and then faced intense criticism over public safety issues, lost his bid for re-election, The Associated Press projected. Gascón was defeated by Nathan Hochman, a former federal prosecutor who seized on voter concerns about crime and homelessness in the nation’s most populous county and largest law enforcement jurisdiction. In recent weeks, Gascón made national headlines when he announced he supported clemency for Erik and Lyle Menendez, the brothers who were found guilty in the 1989 killing of their parents. The legal...
