After a self-imposed political exile to Ireland after President Donald Trump’s re-election, Rosie O’Donnell quietly returned to the United States. During an interview with Chris Cuomo on his new show, “SiriusXM’s Cuomo Mornings,” the 63-year-old actress revealed she recently returned to the country to visit her family. The actress moved to Ireland with her teenage daughter in January 2025, just prior to President Trump’s second inauguration. “I was recently home for two weeks, and I did not really tell anyone,” she told Cuomo. “I just went to see my family. I wanted to see how hard it would be for...

Former ESPN personality Sarah Spain grumbled on her podcast recently that sitting near “demon” Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio at the Winter Olympics in Italy made her feel “ill.” The “Good Game with Sarah Spain” host described her proximity to the top Trump administration officials – about 20 feet away, according to Spain – as one of the “low lights” of covering the US women’s hockey team as they demolished Czechia at the Milano Cortina games last week. “Twelve minutes into the first period, that area suddenly is awash with large men in suits with...

Eight-foot piles of rat-infested trash are choking the streets around Gracie Mansion — which has gotten white-glove shoveling treatment as Mayor Zohran Mamdani crows he can’t “imagine how it could get better’’ in the city. While Hizzoner’s Upper East Side neighbors are forced to trudge through garbage-plagued roads, roaming rodents and mounds of snow tainted with dog pee a full week after Winter Storm Fern, the sidewalks outside the lefty mayor’s digs on East 88th Street are squeaky clean. “Clean as a whistle for the mayor,” Rivers said. “Look at this side.” “This side” is marred by massive piles of...

COLTS NECK, NJ — After putting out a new song titled "Streets of Minneapolis" as a show of support for anti-ICE protesters, musician Bruce Springsteen issued a statement threatening to keep releasing songs until deportations were stopped. The news quickly spread across the country, with frightened Americans buying up canned goods and preparing to take shelter due to Springsteen's threat to continue putting out new music unless the trump administration ended all ICE operations. "I can do this every day, and nobody wants that," Springsteen said in a video posted online. "If you want to prevent me from releasing...

Bruce Springsteen has responded to the recent killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti in Minneapolis at the hands of United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection agents with a new song titled "Streets of Minneapolis." You can listen to the song and read the lyrics below. "I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis," Springsteen wrote on Facebook.

Actress Molly Ringwald declares the Trump administration “a fascist government,” warns that supporting President Donald Trump’s immigration policies will eventually result in Americans being found guilty of treason or having “collaborated” with fascists when leftists take back control of the government.

Back in October, Neil Young pledged to remove all of his music from Amazon. And in a recent post on the Neil Young Archives, he said he's sticking with the plan. "Amazon is owned by Jeff Bezos, a billionaire backer of the president," he wrote. "The president's international policies and his support of ICE make it impossible for me to ignore his actions. If you feel as I do, I strongly recommend that you do not use Amazon..." Young's complete catalog and a vast archive of live concerts, studio outtakes, and concert films is available on the Neil Young Archives...

I might not have seen a movie flop as hard as the Bruce Springsteen biopic, so forgettable that I can’t even remember the title. Born in the USA, no. That’s not it. The Promised Land? Nope. Ah, now I remember. How could I forget? They changed the title from Deliver Me From Nowhere to Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere. And we had to always write it that way, every single time. They hoped name recognition would boost ticket sales. They were wrong. With a budget of $55 million, it was one of last year’s unequivocal flops. It couldn’t even break...

Bruce Springsteen criticized the ICE surge in Minnesota and the shooting of Renee Good during a surprise show in New Jersey over the weekend, parroting the words of Mayor Jacob Frey in demanding that ICE "get the f--- out of Minneapolis." Springsteen performed a surprise set Saturday night in New Jersey at the Light of Day benefit show. During a set with Joe Grushecky and The Houserockers, he performed his song "The Promised Land" off "Darkness on the Edge of Town" — which he dedicated to Renee Good. SNIP What they're saying: Before the rendition, Springsteen made a statement against...

An ultra-slender Ellen DeGeneres offered her two cents about the recent turmoil occurring in Minneapolis on Sunday. The roughly minute-long missive appeared to be filmed from the former talk show host's $19million UK manse. In it, DeGeneres, 67, took the time criticize United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, while praising protesters she said had 'been hurt just for protesting.' The remarks appeared to be a reference to 37-year-old Renee Good, a Minneapolis woman fatally shot by an ICE agent at a protest on January 7. The incident is currently under investigation and DeGeneres earlier in the day penned...

New York City’s first lady Rama Duwaji appeared to wear $630 “artisan” leather boots from a high-end designer to her Democratic socialist husband Zohran Mamdani’s mayoral swearing-in ceremony — a luxury look that flew in the face of the politician’s “everyman” image, eagle-eyed critics said Thursday. Duwaji, a 28-year-old artist, gave more socialite than socialist on New Year’s Day as she apparently rocked one of the fashion house Miista’s pricey boot designs — one which is said to be crafted from “vegetable tan cow leather” and feature an “ultra-cushioned memory foam insole.” The fashion firm charges $630 a pair for...

VIDEORichard Gere opened up his piehole recently at the Guadalajara International Book Fair in Mexico and blasted President Trump by claiming he was "deeply ashamed" of him. He then went on to praise Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum for somehow being able to tame Trump as if he were some kind of wild animal. Mr. Gerbil is obviously completely ignorant of Mexican politics because Sheinbaum is now widely despised in Mexico because she has declared herself unable to do a thing to fight the cartels that plague that country. This attitude about Sheinbaum was on full display for Gere because a...

Socialist New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani recently celebrated his wedding to his artist wife at a lavish compound owned by his family in Uganda. Mamdani, 33, shocked the political world when he defeated Andrew Cuomo to win the Democrat nomination to run the Big Apple, campaigning on far left policy and drawing controversy for his anti-Israel views. The state assemblyman recently took a break from the campaign to visit Uganda, where he was born and spent the first few years of his life being raised by his filmmaker mother Mira Nair and academic father Mahmood Mamdani. The far-left...

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX), a member of the party of Slavery, Jim Crow, the KKK, and Black Lives Matter rioters, this week accused Republicans of “domestic terrorism” and being aligned with the KKK. In a Tuesday appearance on the “American Fever Dream” podcast, Crockett went on an unhinged race tirade, which aptly showed her lack of knowledge of American history. The far-left lawmaker, seen as a rising star in the Democratic Party, is known for her unhinged race-baiting outbursts and calls for violence against conservatives. As The Gateway Pundit reported, during a commencement address at Tougaloo College, a historically black...

That’s rich! Socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders refused to apologize for chartering private jets to ferry him across the country as part of his campaign to rip the wealthy — snapping, “You think I’m gonna be sitting on a waiting line at United … while 30,000 people are waiting?” Sanders (D-Vt.) defiantly defended his mode of transport after he was widely ridiculed for opting to fly private during his recent “Fighting Oligarchy” tour alongside far-left New York Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. “No apologies for that,” Sanders, 83, told Fox News’ “Special Report” late Wednesday when asked about the backlash. “That’s what campaign...

On June 6, Ukraine suffered an environmental catastrophe. The collapse of the Kakhovka dam in the south of the country sent water thundering downstream, killing more than 100 people according to Ukrainian officials. It wiped out villages, flooded farmland and nature reserves, and swept up pollutants like oil and agricultural chemicals as it made its destructive path towards the Black Sea. The causes of the collapse have yet to be established – whether it was targeted as part of Russia’s war in Ukraine, or whether it was a structural failure – but what is certain is that it is one...

Former New York state Democrat Sen. Alessandra Biaggi took to social media Friday to discuss the pricey student loans she had amassed during law school, despite purchasing a $1.14 million home last summer. "In 2012, I graduated from Fordham Law School with $180,000 is student loan debt," Biaggi wrote in a tweet. "I’ve been paying loans for 11 years. Even paid two of them off completely." "In 2023, my balance is $206,000," added Biaggi, who represented New York's 34th district during her three-year tenure in the state Senate.

Greta Thunberg, June 21, 2018: "A top climate scientist is warning that climate change will wipe out all of humanity unless we stop using fossil fuels over the next five years."

Whoopi Goldberg asked her co-hosts Monday on ABC’s “The View” if “white people” needed to be beaten by police before there was police reform. Discussing the death of Tyre Nichols, Goldberg said, “Peaceful protests continued nationwide after Friday’s release of police footage showing officers savagely beating Tyre Nichols in Memphis. So far, five cops have been charged with second-degree murder and kidnapping. I asked this question way too many times at this table, but you know, when will the brutality finally lead to some police reform from the ground up? Because clearly, it doesn’t matter if it’s a white policeman...
