(NewsNation) — Word in Los Angeles is that former VP Kamala Harris and her hubby, legal eagle Doug Emhoff, are done with Brentwood. A well-placed source in LA told me the two have dropped $10 million on a house in Malibu, near Zuma Beach. ”He bills $2,000 an hour (as a lawyer), and she has a best-selling book and is making a lot of money for speaking engagements,” my source said. “They can afford it.”

Journalist and podcast host Kara Swisher recounted Monday how Vice President Kamala Harris scolded her in front of an audience over a question about Health and Human Services Secretary (HHS) RFK Jr. that she previously laughed about backstage when the journalist brought it up. "I just had an experience with Kamala Harris where we were joking about something backstage about Robert Kennedy Jr., circumcision and autism — the link he was making, a link which is not there. And it was so weird. It was like, ‘That’s so f------ strange.’ And then when I got on stage and mentioned it...

The same party that brought you the “Maryland Dad” narrative for Kilmar Abrego Garcia now wants to sell you the narrative of the innocent “Minnesota Mom" for Renee Nicole Good. Good is not a MS-13 gang member or a human trafficker like Abrego Garcia, but she’s not the scared and confused mom who just happened to find herself caught up in an ICE operation that she didn't understand and panicked. According to a new report, she was “an anti-ICE ‘warrior’ and was part of a group of activists who worked to ‘document and resist’ the federal immigration crackdown in Minnesota.”(snip)...

President Donald Trump ordered the arrest of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, toppling a brutal totalitarian regime. But he's only getting started. The Babylon Bee consulted with experts at the FBI, CIA, NSA, and DMV to compile the following list of who Trump is planning to arrest next: Tim Walz: He just declared war on the federal government, which is more than Maduro ever did. Kathleen Kennedy: It's time for her oppressive rule over Lucasfilm to end. Travis Kelce: It may be the only way to save him from Taylor Swift. Ariana Grande: At least as a prisoner, she'll be forced...

A bloodied, blade-wielding patient at Brooklyn Methodist Hospital was shot and killed by cops Thursday night after he barricaded himself in a room with an elderly patient and a staffer — sending the Park Slope medical center into lockdown, according to cops. Police rushed to the hospital after receiving multiple 911 calls just before 5:30 p.m. about a man who barricaded himself inside an eighth-floor hospital room with an elderly patient and a member of the hospital security staff, Charles Minch, Assistant Chief and Commanding Officer of patrol borough Brooklyn South, said at a press conference late Thursday. The madman...

Each of the three winning bidders are required to pony up a $500 million upfront license fee for the privilege to operate a casino.Under state law, the money is redirected to the Metropolitan Transportation Authority to fund the operations of its subway and buses and commuter rail lines. Mets owner Steve Cohen, in tandem with gaming partner Hard Rock, have delivered the $500 million fee to operate a “Metropolitan Park” casino complex near...

The Somali-dominated Democratic political machine in Minnesota successfully silenced hundreds of government experts who tracked the huge flow of taxpayer funds through Somali-run businesses, a top Minnesota Republican told a House hearing on Wednesday. Up to 1,000 government auditors, accountants, and program managers were silenced by Democratic threats, Minnesota House Rep. Marion Rarick told a House hearing: The most severe ones was that they would be fired with cause so they couldn’t have unemployment insurance, that they would be blacklisted from all state agencies… [including] Hennepin County, Ramsey County. As you know, those are Democrat-run. Many government experts, non-government professionals,...

Could Minnesota break away from the United States due to a violent overthrow of the state government?

Yesterday, several videos went viral of Renee Nicole Macklin Good blocking ICE from driving down a neighborhood street in Minneapolis with a vehicle during an ICE raid. In one of the videos, several ICE agents are seen approaching the vehicle where Good was sitting in the driver’s seat. Her Honda SUV was parked perpendicular to traffic. Two ICE agents approach the window of the vehicle and demand that she move. She backs up, repositions her tires so she is aiming directly at the ICE agent standing to her right, and points her vehicle at the ICE agent in front of...

A GoFundMe campaign to raise money for the wife and son of Renee Nicole Good, the woman who was fatally shot while trying to mow down an ICE agent, has raised nearly $600,000 in less than a day. Good was shot on Wednesday during an anti-ICE protest in Minneapolis, in which she was using her vehicle to impede the operation throughout the day. The situation turned deadly when she began to accelerate her vehicle into an officer, who fired in what appears to be a clear-cut case of self-defense. The fundraiser, organized by Mattie Weiss, is titled “Support for Renee...

Florida’s Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd gave his opinion on the Minneapolis ICE shooting, saying, “If you do felonious assaults with two-ton weapons, expect to be shot.” Judd posted his take on the incident in which an ICE agent shot and killed a woman who allegedly drove her vehicle into him. He opened his comments by saying, “You have to be accountable for your conduct, and that starts with the mayor. Did you hear his filthy talk? Did you hear his filthy, uninformed talk yesterday?” Breitbart News reported that Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey (D) responded to the ICE-involved shooting by...

Five Senate Republicans joined with Democratic lawmakers in a surprise rebuke of President Donald Trump Thursday, voting to advance legislation that would force the commander in chief to seek Congress’ OK before taking any additional military action in Venezuela. Trump attacked the lawmakers in a Truth Social post after the procedural vote, saying they “should never be elected to office again” and that the measure they supported “greatly hampers American Self Defense and National Security.” Here’s a closer look at each of the GOP lawmakers and how they explained their votes: Rand Paul of Kentucky: Paul was a co-sponsor of...

The ICE agent involved in the deadly Minneapolis shooting of Renee Nicole Good has been identified as Jonathan Ross. Ross was an 'experienced' officer, sources told the Minneapolis Star Tribune on Thursday. Good, 37, was shot and killed on Wednesday afternoon while she was driving her SUV down a street where ICE agents were on duty. Multiple videos show the agent, identified as Ross, opening fire on Good and hitting her in the face while she was behind the wheel. The Trump administration says Good was a 'professional agitator' who had been stalking federal agents. But Democratic officials in Minneapolis...

WASHINGTON — The Senate advanced a resolution Thursday to block President Trump from taking additional military action in Venezuela, just five days after the capture of Caracas strongman Nicolas Maduro. In a 52-47 vote, the upper chamber agreed to consider a so-called “War Powers resolution” to force Trump to end hostilities toward the South American nation, in a blow to the administration. The measure must still clear the Senate and House to take effect

With the announcement that he is withdrawing from the Minnesota governor's race, Tim Walz is on the hunt for a new career. Fortunately, The Babylon Bee has come up with the following list of jobs he'd be absolutely fabulous for: Learning Center Director: These have flourished into multi-billion-dollar businesses under his watch. Chief counselor at the "Pray Away The Straight" camp: What a perfect fit. One of those wacky inflatable tube men at a car dealership: He's already doing the motions. Might as well get paid. Supervisor of the tampon dispenser at a men's correctional facility: He's the world's...

Imagine a chairman of the Joint Chiefs who hated the president so deeply, who was so sure he was right and the president was wrong, and was so addled by a deep derangement syndrome that he would tremulously call our adversaries to assure them that whatever that crazy president said, he'd have their back … to maintain "strategic stability," you understand. He'd be the check on the president. He could engage in "freelance diplomacy" and always maintain a virtual veto over the president's geopolitical moves and even call the opposition party's top official to give them talking points. Would his...
