  • Stephen King torn apart over 'sickening' Jeffrey Epstein take

    There's nothing to see here, folks. At least that's what Stephen King is saying when it comes to the existence of Jeffrey Epstein's rumored client list. The prolific author sparked backlash from his followers on X (formerly Twitter) this week after sharing a condescending post about convicted sex offender Epstein. 'The Epstein client list is real. So is the Tooth Fairy and Santa Claus,' he posted on Tuesday. Later that day, the 77-year-old followed it up with, 'Boy, I hit a nerve with that Epstein post. The 'list' is like UFOs: Everyone knows someone who's seen one.' The second post...
  • CBS Canceling Stephen Colbert’s ‘Late Show’ Is an End of an Era for Television — and a Chilling Sign of What’s to Come (delusion alert)

    Variety ^ | July 18, 2025 | Daniel D'Addario
    The news of “The Late Show’s” cancellation by CBS doesn’t just end a franchise that had, to this point, lasted more than 30 years. It looks like the beginning of the end of an entire category of television. With one network now opting out of late-night talk entirely, how long will it be before the genre just goes away? CBS announced the cancellation nearly a full year before it is to take effect, making current host Stephen Colbert a lame duck of sorts; he will continue hosting the show through May 2026, at which point it will simply disappear. Observers...

    EXCLUSIVE: The Obama administration "manufactured and politicized intelligence" to create the narrative that Russia was attempting to influence the 2016 presidential election, despite information from the intelligence community stating otherwise, Fox News Digital has learned. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard Friday declassified documents revealing "overwhelming evidence" that demonstrates how, after President Donald Trump won the 2016 election against Hillary Clinton, then-President Barack Obama and his national security team laid the groundwork for what would be the yearslong Trump–Russia collusion probe. Documents revealed that in the months leading up to the November 2016 election, the intelligence community consistently assessed that...

    Barack Obama spent this week doing what Barack Obama loves to do most — making headlines about Barack Obama talking about what a wonderful guy Barack Obama is. My Townhall colleague Leah Barkoukis had some of the details earlier this week, after Obama lectured Dems to get out of their “fetal positions” and “toughen up,” as the party's approval rating sank to a new all-time low of just 19%. "Remember when we did all that winning when I, Barack Obama, was in charge? Yeah, that was awesome." Then there's this gem from Obama's appearance Wednesday on Michelle Obama and her...

    A Biden-appointed judge dismissed a lawsuit against the Trump administration on Thursday brought by FBI agents who worked on Jan. 6 investigations. Agents’ concerns that the Department of Justice (DOJ) would retaliate and publicly disclose a list of those who worked on Jan. 6 cases are “too speculative,” Judge Jia Cobb, a Biden appointee, wrote in her 32-page opinion finding the agents lack standing to sue. “They do not plausibly allege that Defendants are about to engage in any of the conduct agents are worried about,” she wrote. Agents sued early in February after leadership instructed them to complete a...

    Democrat Rep. Maxwell Frost has accused President Trump of working to “ethnically cleanse” America of non-Europeans. The Florida Congressman made the remarks during an interview with MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow when he was asked about his recent visit to the Everglades detention center, which has been dubbed as “Alligator Alcatraz.” He explained: When I went in and we were standing at that door looking at the cages, looking at the hundreds of men in there, I saw myself in those cages. I saw people who were my age, people who looked exactly like me. I thought when we were walking out...

    Remember Kilmar Abrego Garcia? Back in the spring, Democrats tried to turn Garcia (an illegal alien) into a political martyr, a victim of President Donald Trump and his administration’s cruel whims and treatment of immigrants. It backfired, however, and as more information was revealed about Garcia’s background and alleged crimes, including charges of human trafficking, Democrats simply … stopped talking about him. They knew better than to die on a political hill for a man who may have smuggled migrants, narcotics, and firearms throughout the country. Democrats, such as California Gov. Gavin Newsom, are once again repeating their fatal mistake:...

    Maine Governor Janet Mills is building a $4.5 million reinforced steel wall around her official residence, days after she was grilled about alleged cocaine use. The ongoing works around Blaine House follow a 2018 security study and is expected to cost $4.5 million, it involves a new perimeter made from stone masonry and metal. Crews are working on building a new perimeter fence around the property, and images have surfaced showing a temporary steel fence thrown round the residence. On top of the bolstered border, a new security system will be installed alongside new lighting and cameras. A spokesperson said...

    House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries has arguably topped last week’s embarrassing performance on the House floor with one of the worst Photoshop jobs of all time. On Monday, Jeffries attempted to make himself relatable to everyday Americans by posting a photo of himself on Instagram leaning against a park bench in Brooklyn. He is seen wearing a tracksuit and sunglasses to try to give off a cool vibe. “Home Sweet Home,” he wrote. However, as one can see, there are a few problems with the photo. Not only is Jeffries’s waist far thinner than in real life, but the bench...

    Just one day after House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries wrapped up his self-indulgent “magic minute” marathon, the truth is starting to surface: Even many Democrats weren’t impressed. His hours-long fauxibuster—meant to stall the inevitable passage of the GOP’s One Big, Beautiful Bill—ended up accomplishing absolutely nothing for the Democrats’ cause. The only minds that were changed were Republicans who flipped from “no” to “yes.” Let’s not kid ourselves. This wasn’t some bold act of resistance or savvy legislative tactic. It was performative grandstanding, plain and simple—a desperate attempt to look like he’s fighting while doing absolutely nothing to stop the...

    Senator Kirsten Gillibrand from New York has strongly challenged Mayor Zoran Mamdani’s controversial remarks regarding the Intifada, asserting that if democratic socialists are serious about leading New York City, they must openly denounce it. Gillibrand, known for her pro-Israel stance, criticized Mamdani for not rejecting the “globalization of Intifadas,” particularly as he requested a sit-down to further explain his position. “As the leader of a city as diverse as New York, home to the largest Jewish population in the country, he should take a clear stand,” Gillibrand remarked during a conversation on WNYC. The senator pointed out that it’s insufficient...

    He went on about how America is racist at its core, sexist towards women, and homophobic. The whole woke alphabet was being recited, but where things go off the rails, and where you don’t need to pay him any more mind, is when he said that the rates of cancer, obesity, and heart disease are higher among black Americans because of the n-word. I’m not kidding. "'m a black man in America. The reason why heart disease and cancer and obesity and diabetes are bigger in the black community is because of the stress we carry from having to deal...

The comedian shared a post to her Instagram Story from social media influencer Joe Braxton, who claimed that Tesla CEO Elon Musk “hacked and stole” the 2024 presidential election in his demand for a “recount.” “We Demand A Recount!” the online influencer exclaimed in the caption of his Instagram post, which was shared by O’Donnell. Braxton went on to bizarrely alleged that “Elon hacked and stole the election, then created a department...
