Far-left, Trump-hating CBS anchor Norah O’Donnell and her husband had a terrible day on Tuesday as President Trump continues to lay down the law on illegal immigration. As FOX 5 DC reported, ICE agents stormed into Chef Geoff’s Restaurant yesterday morning, a D.C. establishment owned by O’Donnell’s husband, Geoff Tracy, and demanded to see the staff’s I-9 forms. The incident occurred at roughly 10:30 A.M. This caused the entire staff to panic. The agents stayed at the restaurant for 90 minutes and left without arresting anyone. Chef Geoff’s was not the only eatery targeted. The New York Post revealed that...

Her status as a well-known media elite didn't seem to help as CBS anchor Norah O'Donnell's D.C. husband's restaurant was raided by ICE agents Tuesday. The Trump administration has been working to remove illegal aliens from the food industry, as the Washington Free Beacon reported. "Restaurants in the DC, including Chef Geoff's in Northwest and Millie's in Spring Valley[,] were subject to I-9 audits by Immigration and Customs Enforcement, today, per ICE official and DHS official," CBS News's Nicole Sganga reported on X. "Restaurants were delivered 'notices of inspection' and asked to question employees about their work authorization."

Rosie O’Donnell is looking back at life now, and then. The comedian, 63, recently detailed having a friendship with Lyle Menendez, 57, who along with his brother Erik Menendez, 54, was convicted of the 1989 murders of their parents Kitty and Jose Menendez. “He started calling me on a regular basis from the tablet phone thing they have,” O’Donnell told The New York Times on Saturday. “He would tell me about his life, what he’s been doing in prison and, for the first time in my life, I felt safe enough to trust and be vulnerable and love a straight...

MSNBC host Lawrence O’Donnell revealed on Wednesday night that he was exhausted by covering President Donald Trump and that he was taking a week off from hosting his show, “The Last Word,” lamenting that it was only day 52 of Trump’s second term. “I know you’ve pledged to cover and be here for the first hundred days of the Trump presidency. I hope you noticed that I did not make that same pledge,” O’Donnell told MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow. Maddow, who usually hosts her show once a week on the network, recently committed to hosting her program daily for the duration...

On Monday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “The Last Word,” host Lawrence O’Donnell stated that “Elon Musk himself, personally, could pay for the entire budget of USAID, the entire budget, by himself, without missing that money at all, and easily, easily pay for all of the life-saving work that USAID does.” And “He says USAID isn’t doing it right, but why doesn’t he just step forward and show us how to do it right with his own billions? That, of course, will never happen.” O’Donnell said, “So, one of the ugly truths of this is that, unlike anyone else in the history...

Even so, farewells are bittersweet and this one has been made more so because of her replacements. “I think it’s important to have women in these lead anchor chairs, and I think it is a setback that it’s going to be all men,” O’Donnell says. Later, she adds, “I think there are incredible opportunities for women in journalism. But I think it would be a disservice to suggest, especially to young women who are entering the workforce, that they’re not going to encounter sexism and potentially harassment. It exists. It does. And it exists even for the most powerful women...

A trio of MSNBC programs hit all-time viewership lows last week as the network continues to struggle on the heels of President-elect Donald Trump’s Election Day victory. "Alex Wagner Tonight," "Inside with Jen Psaki" and "The Last Word with Lawrence O'Donnell" all hit rock bottom last week despite a busy news cycle that included the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson and the ensuing manhunt for his killer, a slew of news related to Trump’s Cabinet picks, the fallout from President Biden announcing he would pardon his son, Hunter, and Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad being ousted from power. "Alex Wagner...

A clearly dejected Rosie O’Donnell is pushing for the abolishment of the Electoral College following President-elect Donald Trump’s resounding win over Kamala Harris — neglecting to mention the fact that Trump won both the electoral and popular votes on Tuesday. Rosie O’Donnell — whose long-standing Trump rivalry goes back years, if not decades — posted a TikTok video following Trump’s victory. Suffering from what appeared to be the flu, the former talkshow host was in a somber mood but managed to keep it together until part way through the video, when she called the Electoral College “racist. “And how ’bout...

"I knew the laptop records could be vetted and confirmed," Catherine Herridge says. "I was confused by what seemed a disconnect between the CBS News division and 60 Minutes." Fired CBS News investigative journalist Catherine Herridge broke her silence on "the question I get asked the most" in her newsletter Sunday: "What happened with the Hunter Biden story at CBS before the 2020 election?" The short answer is the Tiffany network did not direct the CBS News investigative unit "to develop more reporting on the laptop" in October 2020 after Herridge vetted materials including "a million dollar retainer from a...

CBS News went to great lengths to squash correspondent Catherine Herridge’s reporting about the Hunter Biden laptop just weeks before the 2020 election, the award-winning investigative journalist claimed. In her bombshell allegation, Herridge revealed she brought evidence to CBS News executive Ingrid Ciprian-Matthews and “CBS Evening News” anchor Norah O’Donnell in early October 2020 that the laptop contained material about “a million dollar retainer from a Chinese energy firm,” along with business texts and emails from the son of Democratic challenger Joe Biden. But later that month, Herridge wrote that she was shocked to see “60 Minutes” correspondent Lesley Stahl...

I think it was maybe a fragment of something. But I don’t know. Without a scar to be seen yet blood all over it.”

“CBS Evening News” host and managing editor Norah O’Donnell will leave the anchor desk following the 2024 election and transition to a senior correspondent role within the company, the network announced Tuesday.

Left-wing actor-comedienne and TV host Rosie O’Donnell has joined the chorus of Hollywood elites calling for Joe Biden to step aside and let some other candidate rise as the Democrat Party’s standard bearer for the 2024 election for president. O’Donnell jumped to her X account on Friday to note that she now agrees with an article written by left-wing commentator Ezra Klein, who back in February wrote a New York Times editorial in which he concluded that Joe Biden simply wasn’t the best candidate for 2024. Klein urged someone in the party to convince Biden to step aside and close...
