California’s Gov. Gavin Newsom is the new front runner in the race for the Democratic nomination for president. Behind a social media campaign that mocks the style and demeanor of President Donald Trump, Newsom’s charges have worked wonders for his national profile and elevated what appears to be an all-but-certain presidential campaign in 2028. New polling from Emerson suggests the 57-year-old former mayor of San Francisco is heads and shoulders above his Democratic peers who each possess a fatal flaw that will likely prevent them from warding off the coming era of Newsom. Emerson queried 387 active registered Democrats and...

In this video, I react to trans activist Lily Tino’s Disneyland antics and meltdown over In-N-Out putting Bible verses on cups. From bathroom drama to crying about bread towers, this is what fake activism looks like when it’s more about clout and OnlyFans than truth. I break down why these stunts aren’t about “rights” but about attention and money, and why real people are tired of being forced to play along. Let me know your thoughts in the comments — do you think this is activism or just a hustle?

MSNBC host Jonathan Capehart almost lost his cool on Saturday when discussing the backlash against Cracker Barrel’s redesigned logo. During an episode of MSNBC’s “The Weekend,” Capehart and co-host Eugene Daniels criticized those outraged over the restaurant’s recent logo redesign, arguing that the backlash is a waste of time and another excuse for MAGA supporters to play the victim. “There are real things people are concerned about, and they’re losing their minds over a redesign. What the — See? I’m trying not to curse,” Capehart told his co-host. The Tennessee-based restaurant chain angered people on social media last week when...

On Monday morning, President Donald Trump posted on Truth Social about actor Sydney Sweeney’s controversial ad campaign for American Eagle. The ads, showing Sweeney in various scenes sporting blue jeans, flaunting her blond hair and blue eyes to demonstrate her "great jeans" (widely read as a pun on "genes"), has been widely criticized by viewers who say it references eugenics and spreads a white nationalist message of genetic superiority; American Eagle responded to backlash in a statement posted to Instagram saying that the ad “is and always was about the jeans.” Trump’s post, which was swiftly deleted, praised Sweeney and...

The trans algebra teacher, Katie Wood, sued her employer, the Hillsborough County School Board, in 2023 soon after Florida’s anti-LGBTQ law was enacted. A lower court found that the law likely infringes on her First Amendment free speech rights and granted a preliminary injunction. However, the conservative-leaning appeals court overruled the lower...

It’s no secret that Barack Obama was the most divisive president of our lifetime—especially when it came to race. Who can forget the chaos and racial resentment that boiled over during his time in office, as he led the country down a path of confusion, division, and unrest? Obama was the absolute opposite of unity—and sadly, to this day, we’re still paying the price for the division he sowed. This is Obama’s legacy on race relations in America: Even Fox Business ran a report on Obama’s catastrophic record on race relations—eight years ago. It all started with the Trayvon Martin...
