Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) now has access to the Treasury Department's payment system and some are concerned about the benefits many Americans receive. CBS MoneyWatch correspondent Kelly O'Grady reports.

Our Core ValuesHere at the SPSFC, we believe diversity, equity and inclusion are positive things, as are all other forms of racial, cultural, gender and sexual orientation acceptance. If you think these aspects of humanity are a net negative to our progress and prosperity, this may not be a community you want to be a part of. And the feeling is probably mutual. This does not mean we included minority-sourced books regardless of quality just to “fill a quota,” to the exclusion of other groups who may have historically enjoyed a more exclusive seat at the table. It means we...

Right-wing journalist Ian Miles Cheong recently sparked controversy on X (formerly Twitter) by revealing that the U.S. government has provided tens of millions of dollars to The New York Times (NYT) over the past five years. According to Cheong, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services was the largest contributor, providing $26.9 million, while the National Science Foundation followed with $19.15 million. Notably, the U.S. government allocated $4.1 million to the NYT in August 2024 alone. Cheong raised concerns about this funding, suggesting that it was used to "prop up" a struggling newspaper that publishes content aligned with certain...

President Donald Trump's decision to freeze foreign assistance has sent aid staff in Africa into "panic mode", with even HIV experimental treatment programmes stopped dead in their tracks. Trump last week ordered a suspension of foreign assistance, while his billionaire ally Elon Musk has boasted he is putting the vast US humanitarian agency USAID "through the woodchipper".

VIDEOUnlike his cousin, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr, Shmuck Son Jack aka Jack Kennedy Schlossberg has accomplished NOTHING in life. Therefore he now wants to feed off the fame of others such as comedian Andrew Schulz which is why this attention whore wants to debate him.

Hillary Clinton was criticized for a remarkable act of hypocrisy after accusing Elon Musk of a 'blitzkrieg-style' coup to access secure government data - all while ignoring her own massive government email-server scandal. Clinton, who famously mishandled classified information during her tenure as Secretary of State, called for Americans to protest the administrative actions taken by Musk and DOGE. In a post on X and Instagram Tuesday, she urged Americans to stand against Musk for allegedly accessing sensitive government systems. 'Elon Musk is mounting a blitzkrieg-style administrative coup of the US government, accessing and editing critical systems that manage everything...

Joe Rogan said former Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign “lied” about him not making time for her to appear on The Joe Rogan Experience, saying her staffers never committed to his show, and even lied about sending someone to his studio for a walk-through. Rogan added that he believes the false statements were made simply because someone on Harris’s staff is “trying to cover their ass for the fact that she never did it.” On a recent episode of The Joe Rogan Experience, the podcast host cited a book that recently came out “about the Kamala Harris campaign, where they...

Elon Musk warned more media outlets will see a drop in revenue after Trump closed down USAID, the Democrats’ money laundering slush fund scheme. On Tuesday it was reported that staff at far-left magazine Politico did not get paid for the latest pay period. Politico sent emails to employees claiming it believes there was a “technical error.” “Due to what we believe to be a technical error, employees did not receive their paychecks as scheduled,” the email read.

No employee at Politico got paid yesterday. First time ever the company missed a pay period. This is a crisis. Now we learn Politico — a “news company” — which spent the last 10 years trying to destroy the MAGA Movement was being massively funded by USAID. Trump & Elon deleted their funding. Now Politico will go out of business. The corruption is endless. Good riddance

The crown jewel of British fantasy cinema, Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger’s A Matter of Life and Death (released as "Stairway To Heaven" in America) impishly flips The Wizard of Oz’s spectacular move into colour for its fantasy sequences. Instead, it’s earth that’s in colour and the hereafter that’s shown in black and white. “One is starved for Technicolor up there,” says heavenly messenger Conductor 71 (Marius Goring), moving between worlds and breaking down the fourth wall with equal abandon. Powell and Pressburger’s film takes the heavenly mix-up idea of Here Comes Mr. Jordan and runs with it. David...

Federal Communications Commission Chairman Brendan Carr is investigating a radio station owned by the George Soros-controlled Audacy.

[Catholic Caucus] Father James Martin and the Tired Leftism of the JesuitsFather James Martin, Society of Jesus, is at it again.Martin, the Jesuit priest who has spent his entire life advocating for left-wing causes, is all over social media preaching that Jesus, Mary, and Joseph were refugees and therefore, good Christians should oppose President Trump’s efforts to stop illegal immigration into the United States.What Father Martin does not wrestle with is the concept of evil. Jose Ibarra, a 26-year-old illegal immigrant from Venezuela, murdered a young woman named Laken Riley during a 20-minute struggle. Ibarra was convicted on a total...
