Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) grilled Trump administration officials in charge of immigration enforcement during a Senate hearing on Thursday. Paul confronted them with a breakdown of the video of Minneapolis protester Alex Pretti’s fatal shooting, asking them if their officers acted professionally in killing a man he claimed did not show any aggression. “Today, we explore the rules of engagement, the rules for the proper use of force, and the rules for the use of force that are proportional to the threat,” Paul said. “My goal with this hearing is not to condemn or to argue to defund ICE; my...

California First Partner Jennifer Siebel Newsom has unloaded on reporters at a Sacramento press conference about Planned Parenthood — accusing the mostly female journalists of inflicting a “horrific war on women” by not asking on-topic questions. The rant was part of a Siebel Newsom press blitz Wednesday after the wife of California Gov. Gavin Newsom was featured in a glossy Marie Claire profile that discussed her marriage, activist documentaries, as well as her husband saying she’d be an ”extraordinary” First Lady, as he continues. “I think she’d be extraordinary in that role, even if she married someone else and they...

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries went off on DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, and it went as well as you can imagine: She should have never been confirmed. Shame on every Republican in the Senate who put this wildly unqualified person into a position of significance, the Department of Homeland Security, so she could unleash brutalization on everyday Americans, American citizens, and law abiding immigrant families. It’s disgraceful. She’s got to go. We are dead serious. She needs to be put on ice permanently. Democrats: Republican rhetoric is out of control. Jeffries: Noem has to be permanently put on ice. —...

There is no bottom to the depravity of the political left; there just isn’t. Whatever issue you think I’m referring to there, you’re right. There isn’t much of anything, with the possible exception of a sandwich order, that those people can do that wouldn’t disgust me at this point (honestly, whatever kind of sandwich they eat is probably disgusting, too). There is something fundamentally wrong with them – like they were dropped on their heads as babies or their parents traded them for meth or something. Whatever it is, the word “gross” comes to mind. Why this, and why now?...

Democrats often sound condescending and presumptuous while hurling indefensible insults. Fortunately, at least one talented young staffer in President Donald Trump's administration knows how to deal with her misguided detractors. On Saturday, according to the New York Post, 27-year-old White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt fired back at Democratic Rep. Dave Min of California, who called her a "fake Christian" last month on the social media platform X. "I think it’s pitiful for an elected member of Congress to say that about a woman who he’s never even met," Leavitt said. At her first press briefing on Jan. 28, Leavitt...

Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) went full Trump Derangement Syndrome this week, calling on Democrats to “shut down the city” in what she described as a “war” against the current administration. Speaking at a protest with several other members of Congress in Washington, DC, in opposition to Trump ally Elon Musk’s influence on the federal government, McIver screamed into the microphone with a full call to war. “We will not take this!” she exclaimed. “We will fight back! And goddammit, shut down the city!” “We are at war,” she continued. After lamenting Elon Musk’s access to the U.S. Treasury, McIver then...

Vogue launched a vicious review of Melania Trump's newly-revealed White House portrait, comparing the first lady's look to that of a magician. The magazine spent four years fawning over the previous White House administration, featuring both Jill Biden and Kamala Harris on the cover several times each, and its latest piece on Melania reaffirms their preference for Democrats. Vogue's editor-in-chief Anna Wintour is a known Democrat - and was once even rumored to be considered for an ambassadorship under president Barack Obama. 'Trump look more like a freelance magician than a public servant,' wrote Hannah Jackson about the white-and-black portrait...

Gavin Newsom said he has called Donald Trump to discuss the wildfires emergency, but still hasn’t heard back from the President-elect. Newsom sent a letter Friday urging Trump – who has been starkly critical of the governor’s policies and response since the outbreak last week – asking for him to lay down arms and come see the devastation for himself. A Fox LA reporter speaking with Newsom Saturday asked how that conversation was going. “I’d like the President of the United States, at least the President-elect, to come and visit the people out here whose lives have been completely torn...

A 74-year-old Pennsylvania resident was arrested for allegedly threatening to kill former President Donald Trump a day before his Penn State rally, declaring: “I’d like to shoot that guy.” Paul J. Gavenonis — who uses she/her pronouns, according to the Centre County Public Defender’s Office — was nabbed after she was overheard making the alleged threats while trying to buy a parking pass at the university’s transportation office last Friday, the Lexington Herald Leader reported. “I hate Donald Trump. I’d like to shoot that guy,” Gavenonis allegedly said after making a gun-racking motion with her hand.

Actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus said Friday on MSNBC’s “The Beat” that if Vice President Kamala Harris wins in November, the country’s discourse will become “kinder and more effective.” Louis-Dreyfus said, “I think making fun of it is a very good step. It points out the absurdity of the situation. And I think can drive home a point in a way that has teeth. And I was happy to lend my sort of skill set to that arena. I’m not a politician. I’m not an expert on various issues that we’re up against today. But I do know, I do feel strongly...

“Wonder Woman” has roped herself with the lasso of truth. Lynda Carter, star of the iconic 1970s CBS show, has backed two Democrats in an Arizona legislative race — snubbing her only sister, a Republican candidate and former Donald Trump campaign employee. “As a native Arizonan, I am proud to endorse @KelliButlerAZ and @KarenGreshamAZ for the two LD4 seats in Arizona’s State House,” Carter, 73, posted on X Sept. 14 “Kelli and Karen are both strong, experienced candidates, born and raised in Arizona. They are working mothers fighting for the rights that matter most to Arizonans, especially every child’s right...

MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace said Monday on “Deadline” that the connection between political violence and the “rhetoric” of former president Donald Trump is “undeniable.” Wallace said, “We were talking about a community in Ohio, where the children, two elementary schools and middle schools were closed because of bomb threats, where a bunch of older students, college-aged students were learning virtually because the folks that ran those institutions didn’t feel like they could secure them after this racist smear about Haitian Americans eating cats and dogs. Unrepentant and unapologetic is the best way to describe Donald Trump and his running mate...

Office values in San Francisco have plunged 75% on a per-square foot basis compared to sales from just before the pandemic, the Hoover Institution said.The Hoover report was authored by Lee Ohanian a senior fellow at the institution.The report's finding noted the former Union Bank building, located in the center of San Francisco financial district, was auctioned off last week for $65 million — 75% less on a per-square-foot basis than comparable building sales just prior to the pandemic.Ohanian called it "devastating news" for the city since the auction price provides a new market rate benchmark for setting the price...

Sen. Mazie Hirono (D-Hawaii) said the Democrats could keep Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh's Supreme Court seat vacant for two years if need be should the nomination fail and should Democrats take the Senate in November. Hirono said if a replacement for Kavanaugh needed to be found, President Trump should nominate a less conservative ideologue, or else be ready for Senate Democrats to keep the court seat vacant until after the 2020 presidential election if they win the chamber in November, according to an interview with Politico Magazine. “I think we’ve had those kinds of vacancies before, and we certainly...

The Democratic National Committee is in deep “doo doo” after an unfortunate pit stop Tuesday morning in Lawrenceville, Georgia. A DNC bus emblazoned with Hillary Clinton insignia spewed raw sewage and human feces all over the road after the bus inexplicably stopped in front of an auto parts store and literally let it rip. A hazmat team soon declared the scene a biohazard.

On CNN contributor Roland Martin’s podcast posted to his website Monday, Jason Whitlock, the columnist who inspired Bob Costas’ commentary on gun control during halftime of Sunday’s Dallas Cowboys-Philadelphia Eagles game on NBC, revealed his peculiar take on the National Rifle Association (NRA).Whitlock spoke out against the NFL’s handling of the aftermath of Jovan Belcher’s suicide and gun issues in his Sunday FoxSports.com column. During Martin’s podcast, he likened the NRA to the Ku Klux Klan and tied the group to the dangerous street culture that unfortunately dominates “so many black youths.”“Sports gets so much attention, and people tune out...
