Press Release 9 Attorney General Bailey Obtains Court Win Throwing Out Biden-Harris Illegal Parole in Place Rule JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. – Today, Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey obtained a court order throwing out the Biden-Harris Administration’s “parole in place” (PIP) rule that would allow millions of illegal immigrants to circumvent the law and obtain permanent residency. He joined sixteen other states in the lawsuit. “Joe Biden and Kamala Harris created a crisis at the southern border, leaving the American people to pay the consequences. In the wake of the federal government’s refusal to act, states like Missouri had no choice...

U.S. — Controversy erupted today following Donald Trump's landslide election victory, as Democrats admitted that Trump actually won in 2020 and is therefore now ineligible to serve a third term as president. In a shrewd move, Democratic Party leaders finally disclosed that Trump had, in fact, won the 2020 election against Joe Biden and has been the rightful president this whole time, rendering him term-limited and unable to take office in January. "Yeah, he actually won a second term in 2020. Sorry about that," said Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi. "It's a real shame he already served two terms. Unfortunately, that means...

Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-N.Y.), one of the staunchest Israel supporters in Congress, criticized liberal writer Peter Beinart’s New York Times op-ed “Democrats ignored Gaza and brought down their party.” “Peter Beinart has an op-ed claiming that outrage among young black Americans against Israel is one of the causes of Democratic defeat in the 2024 election,” Torres wrote. “Beware of white progressives, who project their own ideological biases onto working-class communities of color.” “Here’s the ground-level truth. If you’re a young man of color struggling to pay your rent, put food on the table and keep your family afloat, the furthest...

An Oxford University student killed himself after becoming a victim of “pervasive cancel culture” over an unproven allegation made by his ex, a UK court has heard. The body of 20-year-old Alexander Rogers was pulled from the River Thames on Jan. 15 — just days after his friends and classmates stopped speaking to him when his former partner aired the unknown allegation, This Is Oxfordshire reported. The unspecified allegation was not reported to authorities or the school, but resulted in Rogers being “ostracized” as part of a “pile-on” effect, a court hearing into his death was told. Dr. Dominique Thompson,...

Professors at Harvard and Princeton have canceled classes following Trump’s victory, and other units within the universities are offering “spaces” to process the election results. At Harvard University, the courses “Sociology 1156: Statistics for Social Sciences,” “Applied Math 22a: Solving and Optimizing,” and the general education courses “The Ancient Greek Hero” and “Popular Culture and Modern China” canceled Wednesday class sessions, made attendance optional, or extended assignment deadlines, according to the student-run paper the Crimson. An undergraduate student at Harvard told National Review that the first 30 minutes of a section meeting for the class “Gov 1790: American Foreign Policy”...

BBC claim details of Trump appointments and those 2 were the most notable:- Elon Musk: Deregulation czar Kennedy: Health czar. A "czar" in US political terms is someone who has a wide remit over policy and not necessarily needed to be confirmed by the U.S. Senate? Shrug...

On Wednesday’s broadcast of NBC’s “Today,” co-host Savannah Guthrie stated that President Joe Biden “had always been something of a centrist.” But he didn’t actually govern like one and “There was a sense that he was trying to do more than, perhaps, people had voted him into office to do.” And that Democrats constantly talk about identity politics. She also stated that people might not have expected Biden to run for re-election at first since he ran to be a transition figure. Guthrie said, “Well, it’s also interesting, too, because Biden ran kind of — first of all, as a...

Where's ol' Serpant Head with his prediction og a Kamala landslide. Btw, I put this topic under, 'Agriculture' due to not being relavent to just about anything.

Despite receiving the backing of a whole host of A-listers, including Beyoncé and Taylor Swift, Democratic candidate Kamala Harris still managed to lose the 2024 election. Donald Trump will soon return to the White House — but he may not be the only one preparing a big move. Over the course of the campaign, a number of top celebs claimed they would up and leave the States if Trump emerged victorious, while film star George Clooney even affirmed he would “get out of politics and go back to television” if the Donald got in. So who might be considering a...

Travis Kelce ruffled some feathers with his post-presidential election message. Taking to Instagram on Wednesday, the Chiefs tight shared a collage of photos featuring his teammates commemorating Kansas City’s 30-24 win over the Buccaneers in overtime on “Monday Night Football.” “Arrowhead at night 🏟️🔥🔥,” Kelce wrote, including a pair of fire emojis. Some felt Kelce’s post was ill-timed after former president Donald Trump defeated Vice President Kamala Harris to become the 47th president of the United States in Tuesday’s election. “Trav I love you but pls read the room,” someone wrote in the comments.

In a stirring concession speech following last night's election loss, Kamala Harris announced she would work to ensure a peaceful transition of power to the man she called Adolf Hitler for the last year. After losing a lopsided contest to former President Donald Trump — who she spent years warning Americans was the gravest threat to democracy — Harris vowed to accept his victory and help the man she told voters was a ruthless, totalitarian dictator take control of the highest office in the land. "It's my responsibility to make sure this tyrannical despot assumes power," Harris told the crowd...

In the wake of Donald Trump’s victory Tuesday, a broad coalition of public and private sector leaders, including county officials, law enforcement, health care leaders and educators, is pledging to protect Santa Cruz County’s immigrants. In Watsonville, nonprofit organizations are beginning to navigate the potential impacts a second Trump presidency could have on the city’s large undocumented population and how they’ll reassure the community the next four years.

Kamala didn't need the insult added to the injury after Tuesday's election, but boy howdy, she's getting it: Ok so this just got very explosive. A Kamala campaign staffer who saw these posts called me just now and said there is a massive scandal here worthy of an audit. The $20 million debt thing is real. Rob Flaherty, this staffer said, is currently shopping around the Kamala fundraising email list to anyone who wants it to try to raise the money back. This includes other campaigns and outside groups. Flaherty is the deputy campaign manager and reports to Jen O’Malley...

A fired worker at a computer repair store shot his former boss in a broad daylight attack on the Upper West Side Thursday – then escaped through subway tunnels and briefly hid under a train, according to sources and local store owners. The irate shooter blasted the 47-year-old victim once in the shoulder and once in the leg at West 69th Street and Columbus Avenue around 9:20 a.m., police said. The two worked together at the nearby Lincoln Business Machines Incorporated, sources said — and the gunman was a remote worker who had been fired shortly before the shooting, several...

Democrats are looking on nervously as their last-ditch goal of recapturing the House in an otherwise brutal election shows signs of fizzling. Why it matters: The House emerged early Wednesday morning as Democrats' last hope of denying President-elect Trump full control of Congress. Republican and Democratic operatives alike concede that while Democrats still have a technical shot at picking up the House, the GOP has the inside track and could even ultimately grow their five-seat majority. Asked to describe the mood of the caucus, one House Democrat told Axios, "Shock, sadness, anger, frustration, disappointment."

A glum-looking Nancy Pelosi avoided The Post’s questions Wednesday about her role in swapping in Kamala Harris for President Biden as the 2024 Democratic nominee — after getting in a tense discussion with ex-Democratic National Committee chair Donna Brazile ahead of the vice president’s concession speech at Howard University. “Do you think it was a mistake to kick Joe Biden off the ballot?” The Post inquired as the former House speaker left the event. The 84-year-old Pelosi, who was elected Tuesday to a 20th term representing her San Francisco-based district in the House, ignored all inquiries — including one about...

Experts and lawmakers on both sides of the aisle are discussing Florida's shift to a Republican stronghold as Republicans dominate major elections and the majority of Floridians voted for President-elect Donald Trump in this election. Florida Atlantic University professor of political science Kevin Wagner says Florida’s shift started several years ago and it’s due to a variety of factors. "Certainly, there was some pretty good evidence that we had people moving from states like California and New York looking for a more conservative environment, and they brought their politics with them when they came to Florida," Wagner said. "That influx...

The raid was conducted by the Defense Criminal Investigative Service which investigates criminal behavior with the Department of Defense. --snip-- According to reports, the Feds used a battering ram to bust the door down at Alfie Oakes’ home while his wife and daughter were home. IRS agents were seen carrying boxes out of Alfie Oakes’ home.

Over the course of the last decade, President-elect Donald Trump broke both national political parties. He first stormed into the 2016 Republican primaries with both an agenda and a style that sharply cut against GOP conventions. Since then, the Democratic Party has defined itself by opposition to him, rather than its own values and platform. President Joe Biden’s victory in 2020 looks, now more than ever, like an electoral brake tap in a race away from the establishment. In this election, there was no greater symbol of the aimlessness of the two parties’ old guards than the Cheney family and...
