President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team is considering ending two Biden administration programs that have allowed more than 1.3 million immigrants to enter the U.S. legally, making those who entered but have not yet received asylum eligible for deportation, two sources familiar with the plans told NBC News. While those who entered under the programs may be eligible for deportation, the first people likely to be targeted are those considered to be threats, possibly including Chinese men who are deemed to be of military age living illegally in the United States, the two sources and a third source familiar with the...

MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” host Joe Scarborough was visibly shocked when his wife and co-host Mika Brzezinski revealed how high the cost of butter has gotten in the last four years. “A few weeks ago… somebody who was going to be voting for Kamala Harris came up to me and said ‘oh my God, Trump’s going to win… I go to the grocery store butter is over $3” the former Florida congressman said. “I kinda laughed and I said well that’s kinda reductive isn’t it, I said it to myself,” Scarborough continued.

Tuesday’s election was notable for its national turn to the political right, and believe it or not that was true even in states governed by the left. Voters in California, Oregon and elsewhere used direct democracy to reject several bad ideas while adopting sensible reforms. Boeing Co. said late last month it will close its DEI department as it reduces its overall employee head count by 10%. The airplane maker joins such companies as Ford Motor Co., Tractor Supply Co., Caterpillar Inc., John Deere and Toyota Motor Corp. that have reconsidered corporate DEI teams as well as equity programs and...

Iran has great economic potential, it just shouldn't have a nuclear bomb, that's all.

Pentagon officials are holding informal discussions about how the Department of Defense would respond if Donald Trump issues orders to deploy active-duty troops domestically and fire large swaths of apolitical staffers, defense officials told CNN. Trump has suggested he would be open to using active-duty forces for domestic law enforcement and mass deportations and has indicated he wants to stack the federal government with loyalists and “clean out corrupt actors” in the US national security establishment. Trump in his last term had a fraught relationship with much of his senior military leadership, including now-retired Gen. Mark Milley who took steps...

We must not do to them what they gleefully and maliciously did to us. In his second inaugural address, Abraham Lincoln told Americans they must have malice toward none and charity toward all. At least 620,000 died in the Civil War. It was unimaginably personal. Without that generosity of spirit the republic would not have long endured. With the re-election of Donald Trump, many Normal Americans of good will are not quite that generous, but are coming close. We have to be kind toward and accepting of the people who not only called us Nazis, fascists, haters, garbage, insurrectionists, domestic...

WASHINGTON (TNND) — An employee with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) told relief workers responding to Category 3 Hurricane Milton in Florida to "avoid homes" with signs in support of now-President-elect Donald Trump, the agency now confirms. The Daily Wire reports FEMA Supervisor Marn'i Washington informed workers verbally and via a Microsoft Teams chat while they responded to a Lake Placid community. In a best practices memo, Washington wrote "Avoid homes advertising Trump," the outlet reported. Also in the memo were a few other bullet points telling workers to stay together, practice "de-escalation" and follow the rules. At least...

Donald Trump’s divisive win in the US presidential elections this week has left many American women fearful for their future. The Republican victory took place amid an unparalleled conservative rollback against women’s rights, leaving many anxious about their already vulnerable personal autonomy and freedoms. In response, many women have rallied behind the 4B movement – a radical feminist initiative that rejects marriage, dating, childbirth and having sex with men. This movement, inspired by a similar push in South Korea, has gained momentum on social media as an assertion of resistance. A viral post on X proclaimed, "Ladies, we need to...

“Let folks cast their votes for Trump if that’s their choice. But mark my words, we won’t be certifying the election. He might win, but we’ll ensure he doesn’t step foot in the Oval Office.” — Jamie Raskin (D-MD). At last, it appears that the Party of Chaos got its fondest wish: it aborted itself in the 2024 election. “Joe Biden” was the coat-hanger it used: this miserable, grifting, now-senile hack politician who will be remembered only for driving his country to the verge of ruin. And for what? All in an effort to cover-up a long train of crimes...

President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team has prepared executive orders and proclamations that would withdraw the US from the Paris climate agreement and open up western lands for drilling and mining, according to a report. Trump’s energy and environment transition team – tasked with drafting these actions – includes his former Department of the Interior Secretary David Bernhardt and former Environmental Protection Agency administrator Andrew Wheeler, the New York Times reported on Friday. Trump, 78, pulled the US out of the Paris accord early in his first term, arguing that it was ineffective because it allows countries to voluntarily restrain their...

@rustyrockets 7 months as a Christian and I can’t believe THIS…

Prominent cardiologist Dr. Peter McCullough on Thursday called on president-elect Donald Trump to pull the COVID-19 vaccine from the marketplace.

Why does the FBI and others focus on Russia’s alleged interference efforts, paying less attention to other dangerous actors like China and Iran? The 2024 landmark election has concluded with a resounding victory for the Grand Old Party. With the newly acquired Republican majority in Congress and Donald Trump as President-elect, the United States is facing a pivotal moment that promises to bring long-awaited changes. Interference AnxietyIn the months and days leading up to the election, the outcome was far from certain. Polls showed a dead heat between Trump and Harris, with only a marginal difference, and even prominent pundits...

An Illinois circuit court judge was gunned down outside his home earlier this week as his wife was arrested and charged with his murder. The body of Illinois Second Judicial Circuit Court Judge Michael J. Valentine was discovered fatally shot outside of his Albion, Illinois during a wellness check on Nov. 5. The Edwards County Sheriff’s Office were called to the Valentines’ home on the 1100 block of County Road 600 in Albion, Ill. at around 12:14 p.m. when they made the disturbing find, the Illinois State Police said.

...He starred as the title character in the horror series, depicting the ghostly Candyman character with a hook for a hand, summoned by saying his name five times in front of a mirror. Todd continued as Candyman from the first film in 1992 through follow-ups in 1995 and 1999, and reprised the role in 2021 for a fourth film serving as a direct sequel to the original.

In Candyman, Todd's titular character is the ghost...

Did you feel the joy on Tuesday night? Ruy Teixeira sure didn’t. He held his nose and voted for Kamala Harris, but he found her “distinctive policy ideas, to the extent she had them, questionable. I was definitely not a big enthusiast, but I voted for her anyway.” His “historical loyalty” to the Democratic Party meant that he couldn’t bring himself to vote for Donald Trump. “A lot of the obvious things that bother people about Trump bothered me too,” he says. Mr. Trump is “a bit too chaotic and unpredictable, and it seemed risky to me.” Mr. Teixeira didn’t...

Regrets, she has a few … Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) continued to work her way through the stages of grief following Vice President Kamala Harris’ election loss — this time blaming President Biden for not ending his bid for a second term earlier. “Had the president gotten out sooner, there may have been other candidates in the race,” Pelosi (D-Calif.) told the New York Times in comments published Friday. “The anticipation was that, if the president were to step aside, that there would be an open primary.” The 84-year-old went on: “And as I say, Kamala may have,...

Democrats are finally doing something about migration. Donald Trump’s historic re-election to the White House led to a staggering number of Americans taking the left’s meltdown one step further by looking to relocate abroad this week. Since the president-elect’s comeback victory became official on Wednesday, the number of related Google searches jumped 1,514% percent, according to VisaGuide.World. Between Election Day on Tuesday and Wednesday, search traffic for “immigration”-related pages on the site grew by 338% — with would-be expats zeroing in on the easiest countries to relocate to, the site said. Other pages that saw major traffic growth were more...
