The walls are finally closing in on one of the Left’s dirtiest operations, and it’s about time. ActBlue, the Dem Party’s prized fundraising platform, is now officially facing serious heat after years of allegations about shady donations, money laundering, and foreign interference. Top executives have now been subpoenaed by Congress. There’s nowhere left to run. It appears that massive amounts of taxpayer money have been funneled through USAID and Dem-aligned NGOs. The money is missing, and allegations are that Biden’s Treasury Department was trying to cover it all up. It’s a really scary notion: the artery of the Dem fundraising...

Nothing captures the hate experienced during another term of President Donald Trump more starkly than the victimization of transgender people.

Former Vice President Kamala Harris blasted Anderson Cooper as a [redacted] to colleagues following a tense interview over former President Joe Biden's catastrophic debate performance against Donald Trump last year, a bombshell new book revealed.The then-veep unleashed the disparaging remark after the CNN host grilled her on Biden's cognitive health immediately following his disastrous showing in June -- that ignited widespread panic and ultimately led to the octogenarian dropping out of the race."This [redacted] doesn't treat me like the [redacted] vice president of the United States, she said to colleagues," according to the new book "Original Sin," co-authored by Anderson's...

There are always four phases to the Left's argument against an issue: 1. That thing isn't happening; it's a Right-wing conspiracy. 2. Okay, that thing is happening, but it's not happening much. 3. Yeah, that thing's happening and it's a good thing. 4. It's happening, it's a good thing, and we're not gonna let you stop us. Bigots. This story is somewhere between Steps 2 and 3. ne of the women accused of stealing and fraudulently casting more than a dozen ballots ahead of last November’s election pleaded guilty Monday. Vicki Stuart, 64, was charged with 34 counts related to...

At least four times now Justice John Roberts has betrayed the conservatives. Further he has twisted the law and written decisions that were legal contortions inconsistent with his legal ability and history. What has been going on? What could have motivated him to betray his country and his legal integrity like that? It has been suggested that Roberts is secretly homosexual, and he did pro-bono work for gay activists back in 1996, but the stigma attached to that has effectively been removed by societal changes over the decades. He appears to be happily married in the normal sense. It has...

Nearly 2,000 scientists, engineers and researchers penned an open letter this week to President Donald Trump's administration, calling for a stop to its "assault" on science. The letter was signed by elected members of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine, a congressional chartered organization that provides independent analysis and helps inform public policy decisions. "We are speaking out as individuals. We see real danger in this moment," the letter said, in part. "We hold diverse political beliefs, but we are united as researchers in wanting to protect independent scientific inquiry. We are sending this SOS to sound a...

Aubrey Bertram was starting to imagine her life without student debt. Bertram, a staff attorney at Wild Montana, a nonprofit that works on land conservation in the state, had just around two and a half years left of payments before her $247,804 federal student loan balance would be excused under the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program. Bertram took out her loans in law school knowing that she’d work in public service and pursue PSLF. “That was the only way taking on this debt made any sense,” Bertram said. Millions of other student loan holders are in the same frustrating limbo...

President Barack Obama’s first act as a Nobel Peace Prize winner in 2009 — nine months after he took the oath of office — was to try to wriggle out of accepting it. “The morning the prize was announced, his staff investigated whether anyone had failed to travel to Oslo to receive their prize,” writes Nobel insider Geir Lundestad in “The World’s Most Prestigious Prize” (Oxford), out this month. Apparently, the president was among the 61 percent of Americans who believed he didn’t deserve it. “It is true, Obama did not do much before winning,” Lundestad, 74, a member of...

WASHINGTON (AP) — The executive order directed at one of the country’s most prestigious law firms followed a well-worn playbook as President Donald Trump roared down the road to retribution. Reaching beyond government, Trump has set out to impose his will across a broad swath of American life, from individuals who have drawn his ire to institutions known for their own flexes of power and intimidation. Which is how the Paul Weiss, a storied New York law firm that since its 1875 birth has advanced the cause of civil rights, shepherded the legal affairs of corporate power brokers and grown...

NEW YORK (AP) — During the first Trump administration, the biggest concern for many journalists was labels. Would they, or their news outlet, be called “fake news” or an “enemy of the people” by a president and his supporters? They now face a more assertive President Donald Trump. In two months, a blitz of action by the nation’s new administration — Trump, chapter two — has journalists on their heels. Lawsuits. A newly aggressive Federal Communications Commission. An effort to control the press corps that covers the president, prompting legal action by The Associated Press. A gutted Voice of America....

As Donald Trump seeks to reshape the federal government at breakneck speed, his administration has encountered a flood of litigation challenging the legality of its early actions in office. With more than 100 federal lawsuits filed since the inauguration, Trump and his administration have effectively been sued three times for every business day he has occupied the Oval Office. Approximately 30 of the 100 lawsuits relate to Trump's immigration policies, while more than 20 of the cases directly challenge the actions of Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency. Ten of the cases challenge Trump policies relating to transgender people, and...

Whenever I write about the decline of Hollywood, which regular readers know I do all the time, I often use the 1993 Hollywood release schedule as a benchmark for all that has been lost. If you pull up the list of Summer releases for 1993, almost every one of the top 50 movies released that summer is an absolute banger… movies you would stop and watch all the way to the end any time you stumbled on one while surfing through the channels on your cable TV guide… back when the cable TV ad model was still a thing. One...

The Trump administration’s cuts to the federal workforce affect the World Trade Center Health Program, putting the health of 9/11 first responders at risk, critics said. Sixteen probationary staff members at the World Trade Center Health Program have been fired as part of the layoffs at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Several other full-time staff members have agreed to take a buyout, according to Citizens for the Extension of the James Zadroga Act. The firings and buyouts amount to a 20% reduction in the staff that supervises and administers the World Trade Center Health Program. There are...

The California secessionist movement is fast becoming a political reality, even though it stands no realistic chance of ever succeeding. In a crucial first step towards their long term goal, secessionists have successfully filed a ballot initiative proposing that the state become its own country and secede from the United States. The initiative has now been cleared for signature gathering and will require 546,651 valid signatures by July 22nd in order to become a formal ballot initiative. If successful, voters would be asked in 2028 the following question: “Should California leave the United States and become a free and independent...

A California ballot initiative proposing that the state become its own country and secede from the United States has been filed and cleared for signature gathering. If the measure makes it onto the November 2028 ballot, it would ask voters: “Should California leave the United States and become a free and independent country?” local news outlet KCRA3 reported on Friday. The guidelines would require 50 percent of registered voters to participate and a “yes” vote from 55 percent of voters, which would indicate “a vote of no confidence in the United States of America,” according to the report. The measure...

The establishment's worst nightmare isn't Donald Trump. It's his teenage son. With ONE decision he sent the mainstream media scrambling. Here's how an 18-year-old just outsmarted every political expert: In 2024, something unprecedented happened in political media: A presidential candidate completely abandoned traditional news outlets. Instead, he went all-in on podcasts, YouTube, and creator collaborations. The mastermind behind this shift? His 18-year-old son. But here's where it gets fascinating... See, Barron Trump understood something crucial about Gen Z: 63% of them prefer to see "real people" rather than polished media personalities. They trust long-form conversations over soundbites. And they can...

As we gathered for our meeting at the White House yesterday, JD Vance mentioned to us that he had never before visited the Oval Office. I told him and President Trump that I HAD to capture the moment on video. Only in America can a hardworking young man from Appalachia rise from his humble circumstances to enter the Oval for first time as VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. What a country! 🇺🇸

JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon told CNBC on Wednesday that the looming tariffs that President Donald Trump is expected to slap on U.S. trading partners could be viewed positively. "If it's a little inflationary but it's good for national security, so be it. I mean, get over it," Dimon said during an interview at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.Dimon: Trump's tariff policy is positive for national security so people should 'get over it' | 1:01CNBC Television | 2.93M subscribers | 1,399 views | January 22, 2025
