One Donald Trump accomplishment that often goes overlooked is getting Rosie O’Donnell and other unhinged Hollywood has-beens to leave the country. So let’s give credit where credit is due. Of course, even though O’Donnell is no longer stateside, she still desperately clings to relevancy by complaining about President Trump to anyone who will listen. This is what makes her latest performance on Nicolle Wallace’s podcast so revealing. O’Donnell, once a fixture on daytime TV and whose last hit movie was A League of Their Own back in 1992, clearly cannot let go of Trump. She can’t move on, she can’t...

An OnlyFans model has been arrested in Mexico after two popular Colombian musicians were tortured, murdered and chopped into pieces by drug traffickers, according to authorities.

One angel then steps forth before the celestial altar in Heaven, bearing a golden thurible...

Collin Rugg @CollinRugg NEW: Father of 22-year-old woman who was brutally killed by a career criminal, absolutely unleashes during a House hearing against soft-on-crime policies.

ESPN SEC Network host and analyst Paul Finebaum said he is “considering” leaving the Worldwide Leader to run for the US Senate on the republican ticket following the shooting death of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. In a recent interview with OutKick’s Clay Travis, the 70-year-old Finebaum explained that “one or two people in Washington had reached out” to gauge his interest in politics — and that Kirk’s murder fueled a desire for him to be involved. “It’s hard to describe, not being involved in politics, how that affected me and affected tens of millions of people all over this country....

SNIP But according to my research, many of our most prestigious private colleges are still providing financial benefits and other perks to undocumented students — shortchanging Americans in the process. On Sept. 22, Kentucky agreed to a tentative settlement with the Justice Department that will end in-state tuition benefits for illegal-immigrant students. The Bluegrass State’s policy — like those of many other states — allowed undocumented immigrants who graduate from a Kentucky high school to pay much lower in-state tuition rates at Kentucky’s state colleges. In June, Trump’s Justice Department took the state to court, arguing the policy violates federal...

The left is great at throwing words around like “FASCIST”. What is wrong with the Trump administration referring to them as SEDITIONISTS? That is precisely what they are engaging in and what they are. “A seditionist is a person guilty of sedition, which is conduct or speech that incites people to violently rebel against the authority of the government or its established institutions. Essentially, a seditionist is someone who instigates or participates in rebellion against the government, its processes, or the rule of law, often through force or the threat of force.”

Joanne Chesimard brutally murdered New Jersey State Trooper Foerster on May 3, 1973 after a routine traffic stop on the New Jersey Turnpike and was given immunity from serving her life sentence by Cuba’s dictator Fidel Castro. The failure to extradite this fugitive domestic terrorist denied justice to Trooper Foerster’s wife and family and to his New Jersey State Police family. Justice was delayed for half a century— now forever denied—by the failure to secure Chesimard’s extradition to serve her life sentence in New Jersey for the murder of Trooper Werner Foerster. Chesimard is an inexcusable example of allowing a...

Google executives were eager to keep their settlement smaller than the one paid by rival Meta, according to people familiar with the matter. Trump’s share of the settlement—$22 million—will go to the nonprofit Trust for the National Mall, earmarked for the construction of a Mar-a-Lago-style ballroom Trump is building at the White House, according to the court documents. The White House has said the ballroom, expected to cost $200 million, would be funded by donations from Trump and “other patriot donors.” YouTube agreed to pay President Trump a $24.5 million settlement in his lawsuit against the tech giant for banning...

The world’s highest bridge opened in China on Sunday, taking the crown from another bridge in the same province. The Huajiang Grand Canyon Bridge soars about 2,050 feet above a river and gorge in the southern Chinese province of Guizhou.

According to Chinese state media, the new Guizhou bridge also sets a record as the world’s longest bridge in a mountainous region, spanning 4,600 feet across. Hailed as China’s...

OLD BRIDGE, May 2—The straight‐marked furrows in the vegetable garden behind a cluster of houses on Marlboro Road here today awaited the young plants that were to have been placed there. But the man who was to plant them could not do so because he was dead. State Trooper Werner Foerster, whose garden it was, died in a gunfight on the New Jersey Turnpike at East Brunswick this morning. The 34‐year‐old trooper lived here with his wife, Rosa Charlotte Heider Foerster, and their 3‐year‐old son, Eric. Their home is a trim two‐story white and brown mansard‐roofed structure with a sparkling...
