Pop star Katy Perry claimed that illegal migrants are being “hunted like criminals in their ancestral home,” implying that the land of California and Los Angeles belongs to them. In a series of Instagram Stories on Tuesday, Perry promoted a message that said illegal migrants are the descendants of those who built California. “Los Angeles has lived under three flags: Spain, Mexico, and the United States. That land has seen borders shift, power, change, hands, and yet the people, especially the brown and indigenous people, have always been there. Planting roots, building lives, raising families,” the message said. “And now,...

FIRST ON FOX: Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly of Arizona, who ditched his Tesla last month, refused to label recent violence at Tesla dealerships in protest of Elon Musk’s DOGE efforts as "domestic terrorism," a term that has been used by Republicans and the Justice Department. "Certainly vandalism and it's a crime," Kelly told Fox News Digital when asked if the violence at Tesla dealerships in response to DOGE amounted to terrorism. "It's a significant crime, especially if you're going to firebomb a car or vandalize somebody's vehicle or even key somebody's vehicle. They shouldn't be doing it. And these should...

On Thursday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “All In,” Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) defended his vote against the Laken Riley Act by stating that “people are going to be targeted because they’re brown.” Host Chris Hayes asked, “[T]here’s a sort of a test of this happening now with this piece of legislation that would essentially make larger the category of immigrants who are here undocumented without status who can be put into the deportation queue if arrested, not convicted, for a set of category of crimes. So, it enlargens that. It also, in a more — well, a part that a lot...

Jacky Rosen and sat with first-time voters and business owners in the city as part of a Democratic push to get out the vote.With days to go before the election, the push is on from both parties to get out the vote in battleground states like Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, North Carolina, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

President Joe Biden is being criticized for his 'tone deaf' response after an overnight tragedy left at least 10 dead and 30 others injured at a New Orleans New Year's Eve celebration. Biden's first post on X in 2025 was a simple 'Happy New Year, folks' at 10am ET. That comes just hours after an alleged attacker plowed into a joyous crowd on Bourbon Street around 3 a.m. local time on Wednesday. Furious social media users immediately pointed out his 'heartless' blunder, calling it out of touch and insensitive to the victims and their families. 'Joe Biden is a heartless...

ROME — Pope Francis called for a global ceasefire this weekend while again decrying Israel’s “cruelty” in dealing with Palestinians in Gaza. “Let us pray for a ceasefire on all war fronts, in Ukraine, the Holy Land, in all the Middle East and the entire world, at Christmas,” the pontiff said in his weekly Angelus address Sunday. “And with sorrow I think of Gaza, of so much cruelty; of the children machine-gunned, the bombing of schools and hospitals… So much cruelty!”

Make no mistake: I condemn these murderers, grieve for the victims of their despicable acts, and ache for all the families who have suffered unimaginable and irreparable loss.

LeBron James appears to be searching for answers as he steps away from the Lakers amid a worrying decline and swirling trade rumors. “LeBron is not with the team right now,” Redick told reporters while at practice on Wednesday. “He’s out for personal reasons, excused absence.” James missed his first game of the season on Sunday against the Blazers — a 107-98 victory — after previously setting a goal to play all 82 in his age-40 season. Redick added that James would “take some time” after struggling mightily in his last few games, including an 0-for-20 stretch from beyond the...

John Bolton’s jeremiad against Kash Patel in The Wall Street Journal this week is a case study in how the Washington swamp is panicking over the incoming Trump administration, especially President-elect Trump’s plans to drastically reform the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Justice Department.Like the recent barrage of attacks against Pete Hegseth, Trump’s nominee to run the Department of Defense, the panicked opposition to the nomination of Patel for FBI director has nothing to do with Patel himself and everything to do with undermining Trump’s second-term agenda.A quick glance at Bolton’s argument bears this out. Bolton — the perfect...

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) said on Monday that President elect-Trump “and his transition team are already breaking” a law on presidential transition. “Donald Trump and his transition team are already breaking the law,” Warren said in a post on the social platform X. “I would know because I wrote the law. Incoming presidents are required to prevent conflicts of interest and sign an ethics agreement.” “This is what illegal corruption looks like,” she added. Warren was responding to a report from CNN on Saturday that said a conflict of interest pledge included in the Presidential Transition Act was, in part,...

GREENSBURG, Pa. – Former President Bill Clinton claimed Tuesday that Israeli leaders “don’t care anymore” about peace between the Jewish State and Palestinians and said Vice President Kamala Harris “can’t have” a plan to end the war in the Middle East. Clinton, 78, was stumping for Harris in western Pennsylvania at the University of Pittsburg-Greensburg when a pro-Palestinian protester interrupted his remarks, demanding an answer from him on what the vice president would do to stop “the genocide” in Gaza and end US military support for Israel. “That’s a fair question,” the 42nd president responded, before telling a 15-minute-long story...

VIDEOThe voice of Bruce Springsteen has gotten so bad that it might even be WORSE than his parody. Compare the parody Bruce Springsteen with the real Bruce Springsteen. No matter which one you think is worse, they are both ready for the Gong Show.

Two days in a row this week, Harris was off the campaign trail, which was probably good for her since she keeps driving her approval ratings lower every time she opens her mouth. Apparently it's time for another "reboot," and this time, Harris has decided that her presidency will consist of betraying our allies and hosting concerts with Bruce Springsteen. It's a bold move, especially since one of her big pitches other than "DONALD TRUMP IS LITERALLY HITLER!," is that it is time to turn the page and bring out a new generation to run the world. Bruce Springsteen is...

Kamala Harris‘ rally in Atlanta, Georgia, which featured a free performance from Bruce Springsteen, captured attendees getting up and leaving after the musician had finished his set. It seems the only way Kamala could get people to attend the rally was by offering a free concert. And let’s be honest, Springsteen wasn’t that good either. Predictably, Harris used her platform to trash Donald Trump, claiming, “He does not understand this country, its history, or what it means to be deeply American.” Watch VIDEO AT LINK.................. Unlike Springsteen, Trump doesn’t have to pretend he is for the hard-working average American; he...

The editorials editor for the Los Angeles Times stepped down Wednesday after the newspaper’s billionaire owner stopped the publication’s expected endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris. Mariel Garza is leaving her post at the Times because she wants “to make it clear that I am not OK with us being silent” after biotech entrepreneur Patrick Soon-Shiong scrapped the paper’s endorsement for president. “In dangerous times, honest people need to stand up,” Garza told the Columbia Journalism Review she said. “This is how I’m standing up.” Last week, Soon-Shiong told the newspaper’s editorial board through the outlet’s editor that the LA...

Mark Cuban has been one of the Harris campaign’s most visible outside surrogates in recent months. Now he’s making it official. The billionaire businessman will embark on a series of formal campaign appearances for Kamala Harris beginning with stops alongside the vice president later today, a campaign aide told Yahoo Finance exclusively. It’s a move that comes as the Harris campaign amps up its efforts to reach young men and further capitalize on the "Shark Tank" star's popularity in the worlds of both finance and sports. The first stop will be alongside the vice president today in Milwaukee and La...

Shock jock Howard Stern told Kamala Harris that he “hates” seeing her being mocked on “Saturday Night Live” during the vice president’s appearance on his radio show Tuesday. “I hate it. I don’t want you being made fun of,” Stern told the Democratic presidential candidate. “There’s too much at stake. I believe the entire future of this country right now … it’s literally on the line.” But Harris, 59, said she gets a laugh out of actor Maya Rudolph’s impersonation of herself, including on last week’s episode.

CNN anchor Christiane Amanpour has sparked outrage as she insisted that Iran does not want conflict at the exact moment the nation was raining missiles on Israel. The British-Iranian journalist claimed live on air that the Islamic Republic does not want its conflict with Israel to 'escalate,' and suggested the Jewish state is to blame for Tuesday's attack. 'Nobody, nobody, not the Lebanese nor the Iranians want this to escalate even further. Iran does not want an Israeli or a U.S. war against it. It is unlikely to be able to resist that, it does not want it,' Amanpour told...
