As President Donald Trump attempts to muscle his GOP agenda through a narrow House majority, Rep. Chip Roy is perhaps the most important holdout to win over. He may also be the toughest. Speaker Mike Johnson and his team have been confident they can pass Trump’s massive reconciliation bill, because they don’t believe any Republican will want to stand in the way and face Trump’s wrath. But Roy, the unapologetic fiscal hawk, is the rare GOP lawmaker willing to publicly challenge the president. He has already survived multiple calls by his own party to oust him — including from Trump...

The Trump’s administration’s Office of Management and Budget released a memo Wednesday rescinding a controversial order that froze a wide swath of federal financial assistance, which had paralyzed many federal programs and caused a huge uproar on Capitol Hill. The decision came amid strong behind-the-scenes pushback from Republican lawmakers on Capitol Hill, according to a GOP senator who was apprised of the decision to reverse the policy order. The reversal was signed by Matthew Vaeth, the acting director of the White House budget office. One GOP senator expressed relief over the decision. “Chaos is never good,” the lawmaker said.

Joe Rogan has claimed liberal media outlets are hemorrhaging readers due to Americans no longer trusting them. Rogan, 57, had been speaking about a recent op-ed from Amazon founder and Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos, adding: 'you're not accurate, you're delusional.' Bezos had published the opinion piece, titled 'The hard truth: Americans don't trust the news media', in late October.

President-Elect Donald Trump’s landslide victory will likely go down in the books as the greatest political comeback in American history. With every win, there is a loser. The biggest loser of the presidential race was Vice President Kamala Harris. But her failed campaign, once propped up by Democrats and media allies, also left many others with egg on their faces. Below are five big losers after Trump’s massive victory. Media Elites The credibility of the establishment media appears to have hit rock bottom after it tried to smear Trump as fascist and a threat to democracy. In the final weeks...

A Washington Post ‘reporter’ on Monday asked Karine Jean-Pierre what Biden is going to do to stop Trump’s live X interview with Elon Musk on Monday night. President Trump is back on X after taking some time away from the social media platform. Trump tweeted a campaign ad ahead of his highly anticipated live interview with Elon Musk on Monday evening at 8 pm ET. Washington Post reporter Cleve Wootson wants the government to intervene to shut Trump down with just a few months to go until Election Day. “One more, Elon Musk is slated to interview Trump tonight on...

The Boston Globe has apologized for its headline that called Algerian Imane Khelif a “transgender boxer.” The heavily criticized headline ran in both the print edition of the paper last week and on its mobile edition with a story written by the Associated Press’ Greg Beacham. “Transgender boxer advances,” it read. However, on Saturday the Globe issued a statement in which it apologized for the inaccurate nature of the headline. “A significant error was made in a headline on a story in Friday’s print sports section about Algerian boxer Imane Khelif incorrectly describing her as transgender. She is not. Additionally,...

The American media has weighed in on Joe Biden's disastrous presidential debate and joined the growing calls for him to step down. Biden is set to discuss the future of his re-election campaign this weekend amid the fallout of of Thursday's trainwreck debate performance. But if the liberal media has finally caved on the 81-year-old president, his options may be limited. Polls indicate that even fewer voters believe Biden is prepared for another four years in The White House after they witnessed his mental and physical fitness appeared to have deteriorated. Liberal Media giants have added fuel to fire by...

Now that the presidential primaries are over, one question is on everybody’s lips: Whom will Republicans nominate for vice president? Unfortunately, former President Donald Trump’s campaign hasn’t been cc-ing me on its internal strategy emails, so your guess is as good as mine on that one (although I recommend our recent politics chat for some informed speculation). But I might have an answer for you on when Trump will announce his running mate. Choosing a No. 2 is a big decision — so, unsurprisingly, campaigns tend to take their time making it. Since 1972, when the modern presidential primary era...

President Trump pulled off an epic troll on Saturday on Truth Social. Trump compared himself with his look-alike Elvis Presley. THE KING!

It didn’t even take a week. In the first few days after Hamas began their barbaric and genocidal attacks on Israel, the American and international media mostly did a good job reporting on the atrocities committed by Hamas. To their credit, they reported that more than 1,000 Israeli Jews had been slaughtered just on Saturday, Oct. 7 alone. They reported that dozens of Israeli babies had been murdered and that some of them had even been decapitated. And that hundreds of Israeli youths were gunned down at a music festival. And that other Israelis were set on fire and burned...

Joe Biden gloated over Tucker Carlson’s removal from the FOX News linup last night at the annual White House press dinner. The regime media did not quite know how to react. Of course, they all hate Tucker Carlson and the MAGA voters, but they held back their cheers. Joe Biden snarked, “The job isn’t finished, I mean it is finished for Tucker Carlson,” he said to audible boos from the crowd. What are you booing about, like you think that’s not reasonable? Give me a break.”

CNN is being pilloried online after its news site posted an analysis piece singling out white social media users as guilty of “digital blackface” if they use a GIF or meme featuring an African American celebrity. John Blake, a writer for CNN.com, is the author of a piece titled “What’s ‘digital blackface?’ And why is it wrong when White people use it?” According to Blake, white people who share internet memes featuring black people “may have inadvertently perpetuated one of the most insidious forms of contemporary racism.” He cited popular GIFs and memes featuring Tyra Banks from the reality TV...

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) added a new name to the House speaker fight on Thursday, voting for former President Trump on the 7th ballot.

The left-wing news media didn’t just poison the information environment with their incessantly negative coverage of President Trump going into the 2020 election. They also refused to give airtime to important arguments of the Republican campaign — both pro-Trump and anti-Biden — which meant millions of voters cast their ballots knowing only what the media permitted them to know about the candidates. To measure the true effect of the media’s censorship on the election, the Media Research Center asked The Polling Company to survey 1,750 Biden voters in seven swing states (Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin),...

Ron DeSantis is the clear winner over Donald Trump among Florida Republicans when asked who they would like as the GOP presidential nomination 2024, according to a poll.

In early 2011, the Wisconsin state legislature was considering legislation disfavored by government employee unions and many left-leaning media outlets. Union organizers distributed leaflets urging supporters to react to the proposed legislation. According to a local press account, on February 15, 2011, “Thousands of protesters rushed to the state Capitol Wednesday night, forcing their way through doors, crawling through windows and jamming corridors.” In the early afternoon of January 6, 2021, over 700 protesters, some who may have attended the Stop the Steal rally, entered the US Capitol. According to the Washington Post, most protesters were “taking selfiesand stealing souvenirs”...

A damning new poll shows Americans are rejecting the media’s spin campaign to protect President Joe Biden from political backlash on the inflation crisis. The ABC, CBS and NBC evening news networks completely ignored the story.
