Donald Trump has vowed to share UFO close encounter videos from America’s real life X-Files if he is elected president again. He said he will push the Pentagon to declassify footage of alleged close encounters so they can be shown to the public for the first time. Trump has had a decade-long fascination with aliens and unexplained sightings. He told US podcaster Lex Fridman he would "surely" make secret UFO footage public.

Vice President Kamala Harris will purportedly sit for an interview this week as part of her campaign’s ramped-up strategy heading into the post-Labor Day push, Axios reported Monday. Harris has not held an unscripted press conference or unscripted sit-down interview about policy solutions for 36 days since joining the presidential race. The media have not interviewed Harris on television since June 24, 2024, and the last time the press reportedly questioned her at a solo news conference was eight months ago, on December 2, 2023. Harris might be avoiding the media for two reasons. First, the Harris campaign might be...

O.J. Simpson — who became one of the most infamous figures in the US during his murder trial in the ’90s — has died after a cancer battle. The former NFL star died Wednesday in Las Vegas, his family confirmed. He was 76.

New York Governor Kathy Hochul gave her annual State of the State address this week and surprised some of us by addressing an issue that she previously had seemed determined to ignore. Any shopowner in New York City and many other parts of the state has long been aware that retail theft is out of control, just as it’s become in so many large cities. Shoppers are equally aware that they are finding shops with all of the products locked up or empty shelves, while others have simply shut down. Through it all, Hochul has insisted that things aren’t as...

Former President Donald Trump is planning to execute a massive deportation operation against illegal aliens if he is re-elected to a second, non-consecutive term in office next year. According to the New York Post, an in-depth report from the New York Times says that a second Trump term would see illegals rounded up into large detention camps ahead of being forcibly removed from the country, with the goal being to send millions of illegals back every year to where they came from. In addition to the estimated 4 million illegals who have come into the country illegally since Joe Biden...

Judicial Watch settled its election integrity lawsuit against Pennsylvania after the commonwealth acknowledged it removed more than 178,000 ineligible registrations on its voter rolls, the watchdog group announced Thursday. The settlement commits the commonwealth and five of its counties to publicly reporting the number of registered and eligible voters, both active and inactive, for the next five years. “[Pennsylvania] also agreed to publish the total number of address confirmation notices sent to registered voters and the number returned as undeliverable or not responded to,” according to Judicial Watch, and “the total number of voters removed from the registration rolls on...

India is set to become the world’s most populous country on April 14, a title China has held for decades. Faced with a large – and growing ­– population of more than 1.4 billion, India’s family planning service is under pressure to maintain a decreasing fertility rate. A UN forecast predicts that on April 14 the Indian population will reach 1,425,775,850 – a number that dethrones China from its long-held position as the world’s most populous country. The exact population of India today is unknown ­(a 2021 update on the decade-old census was indefinitely delayed by the pandemic) but all...

Tesla just filed its annual proxy statement with the SEC and revealed it plans a three-for-one stock split, and that board member Larry Ellison does not plan to stand for re-election. Shares of Tesla were up by more than 1% after-hours having closed at $696.69 on Friday. In the filing, the company wrote of the proposed stock split, “Our success depends on attracting and retaining excellent talent,” and that “highly competitive compensation packages,” offering every employee an option to receive equity, helped Tesla to do that. “We believe the Stock Split would help reset the market price of our common...

Partial transcript: “So this time we have a worse financial crisis than last time and nobody gets a bailout, nobody gets a government check there is no TARP there is nothing and what does that mean that means the US government instead of sending stimulus checks to Americans who were struggling, who are unemployed the US government is actually going to send Americans a bill because the government is going to be forced to raise taxes on the people who still have jobs because that's the only way it can pay its bills but you know what else they're going...

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson is reportedly planning to do away with all COVID-19 laws in the United Kingdom as case numbers drop and the country learns to treat the virus like a seasonal flu. The government is considering ending all legally enforced policies in England and is instead moving to a guidance-based system, a source told the Daily Mail. Laws that have existed since the beginning of the pandemic, including enforced self-isolation after an infection, could come to a halt, the source said. Emergency COVID-19 laws put into effect at the beginning of the pandemic are already scheduled to...

New York (CNN)CNN said Saturday that anchor Chris Cuomo has been "terminated" by the network, "effective immediately."

When progressive House Democrats fought a vote to pass aid for Israel’s Iron Dome defense shield, the outrage among both mainstream Democrats and Republicans boiled over. Florida Democratic Rep. Ted Deutch asserted that the opposition permitted “the dismantling of the one Jewish state in the world.” The National Republican Senatorial Committee labeled the progressives as “anti-Israel radicals.” In the end, just 4% of House Democrats -- eight in total, along with one Republican -- Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie -- voted against the $1 billion defense appropriation in September. But in the two months since then, the Senate’s taken no action...

The long-deleted fight scene at the end of Season 8. Finally available.

I’m sorry for the vanity, but this seems like a VITAL question that nobody’s talking about. Have the voting irregularities in Michigan not just victimized Trump, but also an AFRICAN-AMERICAN CANDIDATE FOR US SENATE? I’m talking about GOP candidate John James. If so, shouldn’t the GOP have had John James at the press conference with Rudy and the other lawyers last week? The Democrat Party systematically disenfranchised black voters in the South for decades after the Civil War. Have they tried to do so this year for supporters of a black US Senate hopeful?

The senior adviser to the president told Real Clear Politics her view on abortion has changed since her father’s first run for office in 2016. Four years ago, Ivanka Trump didn’t take a stand on the galvanizing issue. And after President Trump took office, in 2017, she even met secretly with then-Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards. At the time, she said she wanted to know more about the organization. Now, she said, her viewpoint is clear. “I respect all sides of a very personal and sensitive discussion,” Ivanka Trump said, “but I am also a mother of three children, and...

Youtube on Thursday expanded its policies against hate and harassment to include removing content targeting an individual or group with a conspiracy theory like QAnon that has been linked to real-world violence. The update comes less than a week after the platform’s CEO Susan Wojiciki came under criticism for declining to commit to an outright ban of the sprawling QAnon conspiracy theory, a step Facebook took last week. "I think if you look at QAnon, part of it is that it's a grassroots movement, and so you could see just lots and lots of different people who are uploading content...

White House counselor Kellyanne Conway will depart her position in the Trump administration at the end of the month to focus on family matters, she said in a statement late Sunday. "This is completely my choice and my voice," Conway said. "In time, I will announce future plans. For now, and for my beloved children, it will be less drama, more mama."

Citing a need to renew focus on her children, White House advisor Kellyanne Conway has announced her departure from the administration: STATEMENT: The past four years have allowed me blessings beyond compare as a part of history on Election Night 2016 and as Senior Counselor to the President. It’s been heady. It’s been humbling. I am deeply grateful to the President for this honor, and to the First Lady, the Vice President and Mrs. Pence, my colleagues in the White House and the Administration, and the countless people who supported me and my work. As many convention speakers will demonstrate...
