And this is the honest truth. They showed me nothing but love and respect up until like a month in.

Washington — The Supreme Court on Monday cleared the way for the Trump administration to resume building a border wall and other infrastructure through a remote area of West Texas while litigation over the project moves forward. In an unsigned decision, the high court agreed to lift a district court's injunction that temporarily stopped construction of the wall and related infrastructure in the Big Bend sector, which covers more than 500 miles of the southern border and includes Big Bend National Park. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson said she would have denied the Justice Department's request for emergency relief. In its...

Mamdani administration calls the agency’s request a fishing expedition A federal judge has ordered New York City to give Immigration and Customs Enforcement the names of some male residents in a homeless shelter in the Bronx. ICE first issued a subpoena in August 2025 seeking the names and birth dates of all men living in the shelter as part of an investigation examining whether any residents there are subject to deportation. New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s administration has been fighting ICE’s efforts and called the request a fishing expedition that would undermine the city’s sanctuary city laws. U.S. District...

Calley Means, a key architect of the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement who resigned from the administration last month, alleged that Wiles and prominent lobbyist Brian Ballard were attempting to shield themselves from criticism by portraying Trump as the driving force behind decisions that Means claims were influenced by corporate lobbyists. Trump signed an executive order in February seeking to boost the production of the controversial herbicide glyphosate, a key ingredient used in Roundup. The order… angered supporters of the MAHA movement.. “Brian Ballard said in writing he didn’t lobby Susie or White House staff on glyphosate. Since Ballard’s...

ransomnote: For Free Repubilc's language rules, I've replaced a word with '[redacted]'.InfantryDort@infantrydort·52mNah man. I’m not gonna let this go unchecked. As a GWOT veteran I can’t.I listened to Massie drone through his articles of impeachment against Pete Hegseth and I recognized the sickness immediately.We fought under this ridiculous worldview during GWOT, and it cost us dearly.Massie is merely an acolyte of the bloodless bureaucratic religion that puts the lawyer in the center of the kill chain, treats every American use of force like a moral emergency, and somehow always finds more sympathy for the enemy being hunted than for the...

Charlie Kirk's alleged murderer Tyler Robinson will go on trial in July 2028, a judge has decided. Robinson, 23, has pleaded not guilty to all counts, including aggravated murder, after he allegedly shot Kirk in the neck during a Turning Point USA event on September 10, 2025. Utah District Judge Tony Graf decided on Monday afternoon that Robinson's trial will start on July 31, 2028. He could face the death penalty if convicted. Erika Kirk, the wife of the late conservative, previously condemned Robinson's lawyer for trying to delay proceedings until 2029. Prosecutors previously said they anticipate the trial to...

JoeLange@JoeLange·4hDo not FEAR certification.Certification is not the end of the story.Certification does not prevent overturning and does not guarantee the “new” Congress will ever be seated.The states begin the process of certification on Nov 10, with the last state certifying on Dec 18.Just a coincidence that Trump’s EO requires the DNI to report on foreign election interference by Dec 18?No coincidences.Trump purposely required the DNI report 45 days after the election to coincide with the final certification.That’s SIGNAL that the election certification isn’t the end of the story.Trump has planned for this moment and set the table in his first...

Explanation: Does the blue nebula look like the head of a witch? The nebula is known popularly as the Witch Head Nebula because, it is said, the nebula's shape resembles a Halloween-style caricature of a witch's head. Exactly how, though, can be a topic of imaginative speculation. What is clear is that IC 2118 is about 50 light-years across and made of gas and dust that points to -- because it has been partly eroded by -- the nearby star Rigel. One of the brighter stars in the constellation Orion, Rigel lies just below the center of the featured image....

Senator-elect James Talarico sat down with U.S. Sen John Cornyn Monday to discuss areas in which the two Texas politicians could work together. The pair met in Washington following Talarico's victory last week over Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, making him the first Democratic senator from Texas since 1993. "(Cornyn) has served our state honorably, and I’m grateful for his advice and guidance," Talarico said in a statement. "Now is the time for us to come together — Democrats and Republicans — to deliver for Texas." Cornyn's office said in a statement the pair had discussed "transition planning and related...

“. . . history and even corruption itself have a way of normalizing the unbearable.” —Naomi Wolf on Substack That 60-Minutes interview with the President Sunday night was a doozy: he allowed Ross Douthat (moonlighting from his New York Times column) to over-speak him so audaciously you had to wonder why Mr. Trump even bothered to show up. He barely levered a word in edgewise and looked rather glum in the process. Actually, you were watching an act of political ju-jitsu: the president pretending to take it like a whipped dog, so that his antagonists would think he was offering...

NOBUNAGA🇯🇵🏯@japan_nobunaga·3hIt looks like a scene that no Hollywood director would dare put in a movie because audiences would never believe it was real.Yet the official U.S. Navy photograph taken on the flight deck of the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln on July 6, 1991 proves every word of it.At fifteen thousand feet over the Indian Ocean, Navy Lieutenant Mark Baden was flying a Grumman KA-6D Intruder, with bombardier-navigator Lieutenant Keith Gallagher sitting beside him in the right seat.Without warning, a mechanical failure triggered the ejection seat under Gallagher while the glass cockpit canopy was still locked shut.The seat rocket blasted...

A Republican lawmaker has moved to force a vote to impeach Pete Hegseth, the US defense secretary, setting the stage for a showdown over one of the most divisive figures inside Donald Trump’s administration.

There are 10 Somali elected officials in Minnesota: including Rep. Ilhan Omar. The latest Somali elected official is Abdi Daisane, whose day center received $7.2 million in taxpayer money despite repeated violations, and whose wife reportedly said, “I smuggled myself and jumped over the wall”, and who has just flipped a Republican Minnesota State House seat in St. Cloud. The Somali day care center owner joins fellow Somali Minnesota House members Mohamud Noor, Samakab Hussein, and Anquam Mahamoud in the Minnesota State House. And Somali activists Zaynab Mohamed and Omar Fateh in the Minnesota State Senate. There are now 4...

Illegal aliens and mass migration were always at the heart of the plan to flip Texas. Having flipped Texas, the new ruling class will ensure as much mass migration and as little deportations as possible because that is the source of their power. And they’ve got plans to dismantle border security, free illegals and end statewide enforcement. Ms. Hinojosa said she would review the effectiveness of Mr. Abbott’s multibillion-dollar border enforcement program, known as Operation Lone Star, and the financial incentives for private prison companies holding immigrant mothers and children. Translation, she’ll appoint a committee of advocates for open borders...

Michigan Governor-elect Jocelyn Benson has appointed a Nation of Islam leader who has repeatedly promoted antisemitic rhetoric and defended the group’s controversial leader, Louis Farrakhan, to serve on her gubernatorial transition team — months after an antisemitism coalition removed him from an advisory panel over those same affiliations.

The team also includes Democratic Sen. Elissa Slotkin, Detroit Mayor Mary Sheffield, and several other prominent Michigan Democrats. Muhammad announced his appointment in a Facebook post,...

Are you a Canadian suffering the ill effects of the trade war between your country and the USA on the heels of Prime Minister Mark Carney walking away from the USMCA at the last minute back in August? Could it be that the reason that Carney surprised almost everybody by backing away from an agreement was due to politics? That's not Canadian politics, but American politics. Specifically, did Mark Carney back away from the USMCA agreement in August in order to help the Democrats in the midterm elections?Who could be making such a serious charge? Some kooky right wing conspiracists?...
