One MP for the conservative Law and Justice (PiS) party was pictured wearing a baseball cap with Trump's 'Make America Great Again' slogan on it. Donald Trump built strong ties with the PiS government during his last term, and was congratulated by PiS-allied Polish President Andrzej Duda, writing on Twitter/X: 'Congratulations, Mr President! You made it happen!'

President-Elect Donald Trump’s campaign released a statement confirming that Vice President Kamala Harris has conceded the presidential election and called Trump. In a statement released by the Trump campaign, its communications director Steven Cheung confirmed that Trump and Harris “spoke by phone” on Wednesday and that Harris “congratulated him on his historic victory.” “President Donald J. Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris spoke by phone earlier today where she congratulated him on his historic victory,” Cheung wrote. “President Trump acknowledged Vice President Harris on her strength, professionalism, and tenacity throughout the campaign, and both leaders agreed on the importance of...

We’ve known for months that there is no love lost between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his now former Defence Minister, Yoav Gallant. But this year, there have been reports of stand-up rows and shouting matches between the two men over Israel’s war strategy. Gallant has vastly more military experience than Netanyahu. He began his career as a navy commando in 1977 and rose to be a major general in Israel’s Southern Command, overseeing two wars in Gaza between 2005 and 2010. The suspicion is that Gallant’s military superiority and respect from within the armed forces grated with his...

A new report highlighted a growing number of Americans, and particularly Californians, who are planning to move overseas because they are “fed up” with the divisiveness of US politics. The Los Angeles Times spoke to global migration experts who’ve documented a spike in the number of Americans seeking to move out of the country since 2020, with many of them being California residents. The number of requests this election year has already exceeded last year, global firm Henley & Partners said. The consultant company helps clients obtain residency and citizenship in other countries and said that about 80% of their...

Marshall Owens posted this earluer and it brought a great memory I want to share: In the early 1980s I was a young journalism student and reporter attending college in Lake Charles, LA. While there, I happened to score one of the best interviews of my life, after I heard Charlie Daniels on a radio interview before his concert. I called around and found out he and his band were staying at a local hotel. I called his room and left a message saying I was from Tennessee, but working for the college newspaper here, and how I would be...

I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to MSNBC’s chief race hustler, Joy Reid, for her comments after it became clear on Election Day that America would be spared a Kamala Harris presidency. See, as a Black man, I did not vote for Harris, as did many others with my shade of melanin. For this unforgivable affront, Democrats have been demonizing people like me since even before the election, when polling showed that a sizeable portion of Black men would rather eat Harris’ bathtub-washed collard greens than pull the lever for this tyrant. But during the broadcast, Reid gave...

Paul and Musk hint at joining Trump’s administration, merging libertarian principles with tech-driven efficiency. Former Texas Representative Ron Paul, a long-time advocate for limited government and free-market principles, could potentially play a role in a future Trump administration. Paul, known for his criticism of federal policies such as the Federal Reserve, mass surveillance, and the military-industrial complex, has expressed openness to the idea. Responding to Tesla CEO Elon Musk on social media platform X, Paul said he would be “happy to talk” with Musk about joining a potential Department of Government Efficiency. Musk recently posted that he would welcome Paul’s...

Republicans have won control of the U.S. Senate (44-52), retaking the chamber for the first time in four years. It gives the GOP a major power center in Washington and a lead role in confirming the next president’s Cabinet, as well as any Supreme Court justice if there is a vacancy. Control over the House of Representatives is still up for grabs. 186 Democrats - 201 Republicans

Thanks Jim. It was gratifying to hear Charlie Kirk play Rush Limbaugh's bumper music today. Jim Robinson deserves the laurels of a victor as well, as a pioneer of the alternative information infrastructure that's doing this.

Time to right some wrongs. 1. All those new IRS agents are now going to be walking a border patrol. Any of them that tries to let illegals in will be prosecuted just as they planned to do to ordinary citizens that didn’t fork over their life savings to the Biden Regime. 2. All unlawfully detained citizens from the January 6th protest will be instantly released, given a full pardon, and have all of their legal bills, lost wages, and compensation for pain and suffering taken from the funds of the DNC accounts. 3. Both kangaroo court impeachments will be...

After Donald J. Trump rose like a Phoenix from its ashes and conquered a legendary victory in the US Presidential election, all the world’s attention has focused on him. That includes the two belligerent Slavic nations of Russia and Ukraine. Since the campaign Trump’s positions on this war have been scrutinized, with the MAGA leader saying that the war wouldn’t have started under his presidency, but only through the weakness and stupidity of Joe Biden’s administration from hell. Trump also said he would put an end to the war very quickly, using the hyperbolic ‘in 24 hours’ – a comment...

U.S. — The entire world was still abuzz this morning following the results of the U.S. presidential election, as President-Elect Donald Trump defeated Kamala Harris, Hollywood, the news media, the Deep State, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, universities across the country, the Department of Justice, political experts, science, the medical community, and all of Diddy's homies. The upset sent shockwaves throughout the political sphere, with analysts struggling to explain how Trump managed to win against every facet of government, academia, corporate America, entertainment, and Sean Combs's nefarious cadre of associates. "He overcame what seemed to be impossible odds," one analyst...

Researchers have developed a nanoscale sensor to detect lung cancer by analyzing isoprene levels in breath, achieving high sensitivity and accuracy. The sensor, based on platinum-enhanced indium oxide nanoflakes, was integrated into a portable device that effectively distinguished lung cancer patients from healthy individuals in small tests. Detecting early-stage lung cancer may become easier thanks to an innovative approach that analyzes exhaled breath. Researchers developed an ultrasensitive nanoscale sensor capable of detecting isoprene levels in breath, a biomarker for lung cancer. By incorporating platinum-based nanoclusters, the Pt@InNiOx sensor achieved high sensitivity, with a detection threshold of just 2 parts per...

Explanation: Comet Tsuchinshan-Atlas is now headed back to the outer Solar System. The massive dusty snowball put on quite a show during its trip near the Sun, resulting in many impressive pictures from planet Earth during October. The featured image was taken in mid-October and shows a defining visual feature of the comet -- its impressive anti-tail. The image captures Comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan–ATLAS) with impressively long dust and ion tails pointing up and away from the Sun, while the strong anti-tail -- composed of more massive dust particles -- trails the comet and points down and (nearly) toward the...

Joy Behar told her co-hosts Wednesday on ABC’s “The View” that Fox News and Newsmax should not be let off the hook for spreading “fake news” that helped Donald Trump get re-elected as president of the United States. Co-host Sunny Hostin said, “He is a politician that is twice impeached. How is it that we have normalized someone who tried to start an insurrection, who is an election denier, who is a convicted felon, who is twice impeached, who has filed for bankruptcy six times?” Behar said, “And can we not let Fox News off the hook, please and Newsmax,...

The next president will appoint more than 100 federal judges to the bench, providing an opportunity to mold the federal judiciary towards his or her liking. As of Election Day, there were six vacancies on the high-profile federal circuit courts, and 61 district court vacancies waiting to be filled. According to recent history, a new president on average has between 200 and 250 Article III judicial appointments during the course of four years in office. During his first administration, former President Donald Trump appointed three Supreme Court justices, 54 circuit court judges and 174 district court jurists. The impact of...

Skewed polls and anonymous betting markets are building up Republicans’ expectations. Donald Trump could use that to challenge the result.The torrent of polls began arriving just a few weeks ago, one after the other, most showing a victory for Donald J. Trump. They stood out amid the hundreds of others indicating a dead heat in the presidential election. But they had something in common: They were commissioned by right-leaning groups with a vested interest in promoting Republican strength. These surveys have had marginal, if any, impact on polling averages, which either do not include the partisan polls or give them...

Kamala Harris did not speak to the nation after losing the 2024 election.She has still not spoken publicly.Where’s Kamala?

Ever since the rise of Barack Obama, Democrats have seen themselves as destined to rule. With his presidential victory in 2008, they created a seemingly unbridgeable political empire. With the support of big cities, young progressives, universities, the media and an ever-expanding government workforce, the party – led by what Roger Kimball calls ‘the Syndicate’ – imagined it could stay in power indefinitely. Given their advantages and the clear vulnerabilities of their only serious opponent, Donald Trump, Democrats should have expected an easy time in this presidential election. Instead, Trump won a convincing victory last night, with Republicans also winning...
