    Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is not taking calls from Vice President Kamala Harris about storm recovery just over a week after Hurricane Helene hammered parts of his state. A source familiar with the situation said he was dodging the Democratic presidential nominee’s calls because they “seemed political,” according to a DeSantis aide. “Kamala was trying to reach out, and we didn’t answer,” the DeSantis aide told NBC News. The same person said “not to my knowledge” when asked if DeSantis had spoken to President Joe Biden. Last week, DeSantis said Biden had called him, but he was flying at the...

    FEMA has denied inappropriate allocation of funds. While victims say they have been left scrambling for survival, some critics resurfaced Atkins' March 2023 remarks as they slammed FEMA's priorities. In the clip, which has racked up over 15 million views since it was shared on X on Sunday, Atkins argued that LGBTQ victims should receive more support because they would have been 'already struggling' before a natural disaster. 'That is the 'why' for why we're having these discussions,' he continued. 'It isn't being talked about and it isn't being socialized - we're not paying attention to this community.'

    After trying to block the Georgia State Election Board (SEB) from ensuring precincts match physical ballot counts with machine counts, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger’s office declined to provide training on the SEB’s rule until a court rules on the matter. Blake Evans, the election director for the secretary of state, sent guidance to county election officials indicating the state will not bother providing “additional training … until after any court decisions are made,” according to a document obtained by The Federalist. “Our office is continuing to review recent rule amendments voted on by the State Election Board (SEB) at...

    Users on social media took aim at Vice President Kamala Harris after the Democratic nominee took to X to pledge millions of dollars in aid for Lebanon at the same time residents of North Carolina struggle to recover from Hurricane Helene. "This has to be fake. Even Kamala Harris, the gold standard of stupid, isn’t stupid enough to post this," actor James Woods said on X Saturday. "Certainly not while North Carolinians are pulling the bodies of their neighbors from the wreckage. It’s simply inconceivable." The post came in response to Harris pledging Saturday to send $157 million of "additional...

    YOU ARE SPECIAL "I don't know why I was even born," the young sailor confided! "I'm ugly. I'm not talented. I've never been what you would call smart. I don't really have any friends.

    Donald Trump says that North Carolina’s Fort Liberty would once again become Fort Bragg if he’s reelected — less than two years after the base was renamed to remove the name of a Confederate general as part of efforts to reckon with the legacy of racism. Trump, who opposed the change as president, pledged to restore Fort Bragg’s name during a town hall Friday in the nearby city of Fayetteville, home to many troops and veterans.

    Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz definitely doesn’t need another scandal a month before Election Day, but he’s getting one anyway. While Walz had enough to deal with after his mediocre vice-presidential debate performance opposite Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance on Tuesday, CNN is putting more on his plate by reaching back into his handling of his state’s response to the coronavirus pandemic. On Friday, CNN published a story about fraud under Walz’s governorship as the misappropriation of state funds led to what the Department of Justice called “the single largest COVID-19 fraud scheme in the nation.” Feeding Our Future — a program...
