Senator Mark Warner (D-VA) said Monday on CNN’s “The Situation Room” that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth should be fired or resign after reports that military details were shared in a second Signal group chat. Warner said, “This is a guy that’s in so far over his head that you know, he didn’t say anything there about denying that he did this gross, sloppy misuse of classified information. Sharing now with his family members. We heard about the misuse earlier when this information was shared with other senior members of the of the administration.” He continued, “It is way past time...

One of Sean “Diddy” Combs’ defense lawyers quit the disgraced music producer’s criminal sex-trafficking case, new court papers show. Anthony Ricco filed a motion Thursday to withdraw as one of the Bad Boy Records’ six defense attorneys without explanation. Ricco’s bid to step down won’t be official until a judge signs off on it. A judge must find sufficient reason to approve such a request.

UFC President Dana White shared President Donald Trump’s defiant response after the UFC chief begged the then-candidate to quit politics following the attempt on his life in Butler, Pennsylvania, in July. “Why are you doing this stuff? Stop,” White told Piers Morgan on a recent episode of Uncensored. “I told him to stop so many times. It’s just like, ‘You have such a good life, and you could do all these other things’. But the thing is, with President Trump is, he believes in God, and he’s very religious…He believes that, to his core, that God has spared his life...

President-elect Donald Trump’s comprehensive 2024 election victory has forced President Barack Obama to retreat from his lifetime support for woke diversity politics, which he calls “pluralism.” “We are not born with the muscles to make pluralism [amid diversity] a habit, it takes practice, and we need to rebuild the institutions that can give us that practice,” he told his invited audience in his adopted hometown of Chicago on December 5. His speech was a humiliating admission of his fundamental ideological defeat by the former TV host from Mar-a-Lago. In August, Obama had used the Democrats’ national convention to declare that...

The mayor of a South Carolina town where the entire police force resigned in anger at local officials has died in a car crash — while being “pursued” and investigated by other law enforcement, according to reports. McColl Mayor George Garner II, 49, was killed when his 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe plowed head-on into an 18-wheeler Tuesday afternoon — just five days after police Chief Bob Hale and his five officers stunned the small town by resigning. When he crashed, the newly elected mayor “was being pursued” by a Marlboro County sheriff’s deputy, the investigating coroner said. “The pursuit not related...

Where is Joe Biden?It’s the question Americans are asking after it was announced Sunday via a letter posted by Biden’s X account that the president will not be seeking reelection this fall. While the communique noted that Biden will “speak to the Nation later this week in more detail” about the decision, Americans have not personally heard from their president about his abrupt exit from the 2024 race. A “week ahead guidance” released by the White House on Monday showed Biden had no public events scheduled for that day and noted that “[a]dditional details” about his schedule for the rest...

3:17 Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) reportedly gave President Joe Biden an ultimatum: bow out of the presidential race “the easy way or the hard way.” Politico reported Monday, a day after Biden’s announcement that he would step aside as the presumptive 2024 Democrat presidential nominee, that the former Speaker and still top Democrat powerbroker put her foot down after weeks of Biden publicly insisting he would plow forward with his campaign despite major fallout from his disastrous debate performance on June 27. “Nancy made clear that they could do this the easy way or the hard way,” one...

oe Biden’s presidency is over. The old man can’t hack it, announcing earlier this afternoon that he’s exiting the race, endorsing Kamala Harris, his vice president, and finishing the rest of his term in isolation. But where is the president? A tweet of his ‘I quit’ letter was released, which did not sit well with many folks, and then nothing. We’re left to speculate what is going on with Joe Biden, and none of it is good. What the hell https://t.co/aOz5gaMyX0— umichvoter 🏳️‍🌈 (@umichvoter) July 21, 2024Frank Biden came forward to say that his brother’s health definitely played a role...

The assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump paused the Democrat infighting about if President Joe Biden should remain the presumptive nominee of his party. Not one Democrat publicly came out against Biden since the violent attack on Saturday against Democracy, a positive sign for the president. The Democrat party, however, is far from united and may resume in the weeks leading up to the Democratic National Convention (DNC) in five weeks, Axios reported Monday: Privately, the conversations are raging. Biden has more work to do to convince donors and elected officials that he should be the party’s nominee. Donors...

The defeated leader of the Conservative Party, which suffered its worst election result in well over a century overnight, has said he is stepping down from power and will also give up control of what remains of his political faction. “I have heard your anger, disappointment and I take responsibility for this loss,” said Rishi Sunak on Friday morning at the podium in front of Downing Street. The Prime Minister acknowledged the country has given a clear signal that it wants change, and said he would go to King Charles III to tender his resignation. The Prime Minister immediately got...

The White House is frantically moving to get President Joe Biden in front of cameras and crowds on an expedited schedule this July 4th weekend after growing calls from within his party to step down after his debate disaster. Biden's handlers had already put in place a taped, sit-down interview with ABC's George Stephanopoulos to try to fend off calls from lawmakers and donors to demonstrate that he is still up to the task of campaigning. But after a Wednesday meeting with the nation's governors that failed to quell mounting calls for his ouster from the Democratic ticket, ABC announced...

The Dump Biden movement has regained momentum inside the Democratic Party. We cannot yet say for sure that it will succeed. Team Biden is still digging in to keep their man in contention. But the ground is slipping from under the President's feet. It could soon be an unstoppable landslide. By this time next week, the Democrats could be looking for a new presidential candidate. Or still ripping themselves apart over whether they should be. I spoke to two senior Democrats today, one an experienced election strategist, the other on Joe Biden's staff when he was vice president. Both were...

A self-proclaimed “vaping addict” is calling for the devices to be banned after her right lung collapsed twice and she suffered permanent scars. “You never think this type of thing will happen to you — but it happened to me. It felt like my lung was on fire,” Wisconsinite Karlee Ozkurt, 20, told SWNS. “I fell into the trap of thinking vaping was cool,” Ozkurt confessed. “But it’s stupid. I didn’t realize until it was too late.” Ozkurt’s plea follows a recent study that found that 11.3% of American high school students reported using e-cigarettes in the past 30 days...

The day after Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) won reelection by a shocking 19-point margin, the Rupert Murdoch-owned New York Post screamed a one-word front page headline: “DeFuture.”The celebratory photo showed a Kennedy-esque, central-casting-worthy family. Casey DeSantis, holding hands with her two small children, looked like a future first lady in her stunning gold designer gown on her way to the inaugural ball. The victorious governor held their third child with one arm, waving to the crowd with the other.Looking back at that eight-month-old New York Post front page, not only have the powerful Murdochs reportedly soured on DeSantis, but...

Attorney Trusty, appearing on NBC on Friday morning, said Trump is ready for a battle. “He’s a fighter, and he’s going to come out swinging, and he’ll be fine,” Trusty said. “He’s not afraid of this thing.” Hours later, in a shocking turn of events, Trusty and another attorney on the team, John Rowley, resigned from the case.

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre announced the resignations of two "valued members" of the communications office on Wednesday.

We’re all about to walk out after an emergency board meeting tomorrow unless they all...

The “Great Resignation” is causing waves across the workforce, but not in places you might expect. While plenty of attention has been devoted to Gen Z employees switching jobs in record numbers, new data shows the C-suite is struggling too. Deloitte reports around 70% of high-level executives are seriously considering quitting their jobs, largely to improve their emotional well-being. In fact, these departures are already underway. According to a recent report conducted by Challenger, Gray & Christmas, over 650 CEOs left their jobs in 2022. What’s behind this exodus of leaders? Workers across all industries have been deeply impacted by...
