Could it be that the funding dried up? Is this a side benefit of shutting down USAID?

🚨#BREAKING: Thousands of protesters have gathered at the US Capitol in a massive rally against Elon musk DOGE and President Trump

Musk and Ramaswamy are swamp creatures who want to lay waste to the federal agencies like the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau that are working with great care to protect Americans from greed, graft, and unfairness. Donald Trump’s so-called “Department of Government Efficiency” (DOGE) is a classic Orwellian institution. It isn’t a governmental department, nor is it designed to promote efficiency. A genuine executive department would require an act of Congress, including the ability to overcome the Senate filibuster. Its leadership would also require senatorial approval, and — as in some cases — assurances that it can operate in a bipartisan...

Vice President Harris is still pumping Democratic donors for cash weeks after her blowout election loss — but its leaving supporters spent, critics said. “With Trump nominating MAGA loyalists left and right, there is nothing more important than making sure we can fight back and hold him accountable,” read an email from Kamala HQ which The Post received nearly three weeks after election day. “That’s why we need you to step up today. Yes, today.” “Our records show that you haven’t pitched in to support our Harris Fight Fund program yet,” the missive scolded. “We know the election didn’t turn...

White House reporters are already “exhausted” with President-elect Donald Trump’s second term before it even starts, members of the press corps told Vanity Fair on Wednesday. In the article, titled “Reporters Brace for the Frenzy of a Second Trump White House,” New York Times White House correspondent Peter Baker said, “Anybody who went through it the last time remembers how nonstop it was.” “It ends up kind of becoming all-consuming and taking over your life. It wears you down,” he lamented

Democratic political strategist James Carville called for an audit of Vice President Kamala Harris' 2024 campaign spending on his podcast Politics War Room on Thursday. The Harris campaign, with the help of the Democratic Party, raised over $1 billion, during this year's election cycle, according to the Associated Press. Despite her remarkable financial backing, which was accumulated in a few short months after President Joe Biden dropped out of the race, Harris lost the November 5 election to President-elect Donald Trump. Groups affiliated with Trump and the Republican National Committee (RNC), meanwhile, raised just over $1.8 billion, according to the...

President Biden jokingly urged a roomful of Democratic donors and insiders not to jump in the White House pool at a weekend dinner to thank them before he leaves office. But some attendees still felt all wet after the election. (snip) We hear that guests included big donors and Biden’s cabinet, as well as friends and others who have been super-supportive of the Bidens through the years. Former and current ambassadors came in for the elite event. Spotted among the crowd was former Democratic vice presidential nominee Gov. Tim Walz and his wife, Gwen, who were chatting with Secretary of...

The latest video of vice president Kamal Harris set the tongue wagging as she consoled her supporters in a recorded speech because social media users said she needed the consolation as she looked absolutely broken. "I know this is an uncertain time. I'm clear-eyed about that. I know you're clear-eyed about it, and it feels heavy," she said in her first public speech after her Howard University speech in which she conceded the election earlier this month. “I just have to remind you, don’t you ever let anybody take your power from you,” Harris added. “You have the same power...

This article is an embarrassment for the AP which insists on running angry blog posts as wire articles. It’s an embarrassment for those throwing a tantrum against every group because they lost an election.AP: Feeling betrayed by increased minority support for Trump, black women say they’re stepping backSo basically everyone now sucks except for black women. Even by the standards of identity politics, this is pathetically divisive. And also seemingly pointless.If all Americans suck except black women, and they’re not getting involved in lefty activism, what is even the point?Oh right, the point is a vocal tantrum accompanied by fake...

ecretary of State Antony Blinken has been receiving a major pummelling online after reports emerged that he held therapy cry sessions for White House employees following President-elect Donald Trump‘s election victory. The therapy sessions the State Department held for employees dealing with election fallout. An internal State Department email titled “Managing stress during change” encourages employees to attend a one-hour session to discuss their feelings about the election results. In other words, White House staff experiencing a major flare ups of TDS symptoms can come and have a group cry together at the expense of the American taxpayer. “Change is...

As more companies jump on the bandwagon mandating five days a week in the office, workplace experts and researchers are sounding a warning: Inflexible policies could derail efforts to recruit and retain underrepresented workers and make organizations less diverse over time.… The reversal in policy is leading to a backlash from workers who have protested or even quit. Some researchers who study remote work and workplace productivity say in-office mandates most negatively impact underrepresented workers such as women and minorities, as well as caregivers and those who are neurodiverse. “The workforce will become less diverse,” said Prithwiraj Choudhury, a Harvard...

Self-described tech executive and network engineer Stephen Spoonamore asserted in a letter to U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris his "near certainty" that she, not President-elect Donald Trump, won the 2024 presidential election. Spoonamore described a hacking and fraud scheme whereby fake "bullet vote" ballots marked only for Trump and no other races or issues were inserted into electronic voting systems. However, Snopes' research, in which we compared the vote tallies cited by Spoonamore with the latest official election results, found his figures to be incorrect and his assertions to make no mathematical sense....

Two weeks into Donald Trump retaking the White House, and the meltdowns from the left continues to come in fast and furious. Every day, it's something – and someone – new. One day, it's a homeless looking Kathy Griffin housing an entire Key Lime Pie and crying into the camera on TikTok. The next, a CNN panel is erupting into chaos. You have woke sports media members crying and leaving for Bluesky. Lefty, purple-haired chicks with nose rings are banning sex and calling it 4B, as if that's gonna help. Things are backwards right now, that even Morning Joe –...

The Democratic National Committee (DNC), the party that claims to champion workers’ rights, has left its own staff out in the cold. Permanent staffers were given a single day’s notice before being unceremoniously terminated—without severance. The DNC Staff Union took to X to air their grievances, stating, “One day’s notice, no severance—the DNC fights for workers, just not their own.” The irony is so thick you could cut it with a knife. This is the same party that campaigns on workers’ rights, union support, and economic justice. Yet when it comes to their own, the rules apparently do not apply....

Did you know that 85% of the federal workforce works from home and only have to come in one day a month? On any given day, only 17% of the federal workforce is in a federal office building working. Many hold other jobs. It's one giant looting operation and US taxpayers are their mark. DOGE is coming.

Election meltdown 2024 Video of Kamala supporters losing their mind at her loss set to music

Staffers working for Kamala Harris who were promised to be paid through the end of the year on the campaign are seeing their payments get cut off as the Harris camp has gone into debt despite being given more than $1 billion in funding. The Vice President is still making appeals to donors, asking for more money even though the election is over and she lost, per Politico. Adrian Hemond, a Michigan-based Democratic strategist told the outlet, “The Harris campaign certainly spent more than they raised and is now busy trying to fundraise." The Democratic Party has been using Harris'...

Details over last night’s Kamala Harris loss to controversial presidential candidate Donald Trump are slowly coming out. Media Take Out spoke with multiple people close with the Kamala Harris campaign who told us that the reason Kamala didn’t speak to people last night is because she had an “emotional breakdown.” Late last night it became clear that Kamala Harris would not win the presidency, as Kamala and her close team watched election results in her home at the Vice Presidents mansion in Washington DC. Kamala was scheduled to travel to Howard University after the election, to celebrate a win. But...
