First lady Melania Trump is going after Hunter Biden for what she says are “false, defamatory, disparaging, and inflammatory statements,” the former first son made linking her to disgraced financier and sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. On Aug. 6, Trump’s lawyer, Alejandro Brito, wrote to Biden demanding he retract the comments made in an interview with Andrew Callaghan. She will “pursue any and all legal rights and remedies available to her to recover the overwhelming financial and reputational harm that you have caused her to suffer," Brito wrote. Biden’s comments, falsely claiming Epstein introduced Melania to Trump, were widely circulated on...

Last week saw a massive document dump that reconfirmed what we knew about the Russian collusion hoax. It was a deep state, legacy media, and Democrat plot to undermine the first Trump presidency. Former CIA Director John Brennan and ex-FBI Chief James Comey are now subjects of investigation over their conduct regarding their operation. The next question is when James Clapper and Barack Obama will be roped into that probe. Obama especially since his fingerprints are all over this mess.

Nothing will ever be easy with congressional Republicans. The reconciliation package aged all of us 35 years, as Sen. John Thune (R-SD) and Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) had to whip votes, hold the line, and make some phone calls. President Trump was also working the phones heavily when final passage was at stake in the House. Republican leadership held the line, but with Rep. Mark Green (R-TN) retiring after the reconciliation vote, delivering what’s left of the Trump agenda before the 2026 midterms is about to get even tougher. The House did its job and passed the rescission package, but...

Democratic Sen. John Fetterman (PA) broke ranks with his party once again after sharply condemning fellow Democrats who have called to abolish Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Fetterman warned that dismantling ICE would undermine national security and border enforcement, arguing that such calls play into harmful political rhetoric rather than addressing the real challenges of immigration reform. The rare voice of common sense within the party, Fetterman emphasized that ICE plays a vital role in protecting the United States. "ICE performs an important job for our country. Any calls to abolish ICE are [100 percent] inappropriate and outrageous," the senator...

An active shooter reportedly tried to kill Border Patrol agents near an annex facility in McAllen, TX. Three law enforcement sources told Fox News’ Bill Melugin that the gunman attempted to ambush Border Patrol agents as they arrived at the facility. “Local police and federal agents returned fire, killing him,” Melugin wrote in a post on X. “I’m told this was a purposeful ambush/attack against federal agents and a press conference is planned for later this morning. No federal agents injured. Im told a McAllen police officer may have been shot, but is in stable condition.” This incident comes days...

Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA) is the party goober right now. He was part of a five-vote bloc that was against advancing the reconciliation package that cuts taxes, kicks illegals off Medicaid, and secures our border. He was willing to set fire to all of that, all of President Trump and the GOP’s top domestic action items over Ukraine war funding. I’m not kidding: He voted and then disappeared for the remainder of Wednesday night. In the end, the four other ‘no’ votes—Reps. Thomas Massie (R-KY), Victoria Spartz (R-IN), Keith Self (R-TX), and Andrew Clyde (R-GA)–all fell in line with the...

He went on about how America is racist at its core, sexist towards women, and homophobic. The whole woke alphabet was being recited, but where things go off the rails, and where you don’t need to pay him any more mind, is when he said that the rates of cancer, obesity, and heart disease are higher among black Americans because of the n-word. I’m not kidding. "'m a black man in America. The reason why heart disease and cancer and obesity and diabetes are bigger in the black community is because of the stress we carry from having to deal...

White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller addressed false claims that are circulating about the One Big Beautiful Bill. The first claim he tackled is that the legislation doesn’t “codify the [Department of Government Efficiency] cuts.” “A reconciliation bill, which is a budget bill that passes with 50 votes, is limited by senate rules to ‘mandatory’ spending only — eg Medicaid and Food Stamps,” he wrote on X. “The senate rules prevent it from cutting ‘discretionary’ spending — eg the Department of Education or federal grants. The DOGE cuts are overwhelmingly discretionary, not mandatory. The bill saves more than...

Nearly 2,000 residents packed a weekend town hall on Long Island with Dem Maryland Rep. Jamie Raskin — a rare in-person political forum in a deep-red county where GOPers have been avoiding such events. The massive turnout was so high that an overflow center was needed for the main site, the Patchogue Theater — and highlighted the growing frustration of Suffolk County residents who say they’ve been left in the dark by their Republican reps. “My friends, we are being governed by morons,” Raskin, a constitutional lawyer, told the crowd. “But the more difficult the struggle, the more glorious the...

European energy expert Samuel Furfari sums up green hydrogen (GH) perfectly; “It’s like burning Louis Vuitton handbags for heat.” He says this because it is so very expensive. Federal law allocated $9.5 billion for GH hubs, and the Orwellian-named Inflation Reduction Act (Inflation Causing Act) expanded tax subsidies. Even with massive taxpayer subsidies, GH is a money loser. Leftists claim GH is a way to replace batteries for transportation. It is at least five times more expensive, which doesn’t include all the extra costs associated with the production of natural gas, such as purifying massive amounts of water, which takes...

#watch | Pastor receiting a prayer to protect Elon Musk and Donald Trump for America #shorts #usa

Billionaire entrepreneur and Trump advisor Elon Musk dropped a bombshell this weekend during a fiery 100-minute town hall in Green Bay, Wisconsin, where he campaigned for conservative judge Brad Schimel in the state’s upcoming Supreme Court election on Tuesday.Joined by Antonio Gracias, a private equity titan and a key member of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) team tasked with rooting out waste in the federal government, Musk unveiled a shocking chart: a dramatic spike in Social Security Numbers issued to non-citizens, soaring from 270,000 in 2021 to a mind-blowing 2.1 million in 2024.That’s almost 5 million non-citizens now embedded...

CNN — Campaign spending has smashed records in Wisconsin’s high-stakes Supreme Court race, as megadonors from both parties are directing millions to the closely watched election that’s set to decide ideological control of the battleground state’s high court. And tech billionaire Elon Musk is flexing his growing political influence after his key supporting role in President Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign. Musk announced Friday that he would travel to Wisconsin for an event on Sunday naming the winners of million-dollar giveaways orchestrated by his super PAC, reprising a controversial tactic he used in last year’s election. His personal contributions and spending...

Elon Musk held a town hall Sunday in Wisconsin to raise awareness about this Tuesday's upcoming state supreme court election. He spoke for close to 2 hours, speaking extemporaneously and taking questions from the audience.

The Wisconsin Supreme Court race is no local, inconsequential election in a battleground state. “This Supreme Court election is ground zero. Every conservative voice should be sounding the alarm. If Brad Schimel doesn’t win on April 1st, the GOP will lose two House seats in 2026—and with them, the majority.” (X) “The Democrats are trying to redraw the districts in Wisconsin… to remove two house seats. That’s what this whole Supreme Court Justice race is about. So I really want to emphasize to people out there, if you’re in Wisconsin.. get out and vote for Brad Schimel.” (Elon Musk) The...

Must see 5:18 video segment of Elon's Town Hall in Green Bay last night. The Democrats' PLAN! He has the receipts!

It should be clear by now that Democrats want Elon Musk dead. Elon Musk is arguably the greatest mind of our generation, and yet Democrats are running a campaign against him to get him killed. Where are the sane Democrats? Are there any left? When will they condemn these death threats? On Sunday night, Elon Musk told an audience in Wisconsin that he is receiving 17,000 death threats a day! Democrats want him dead because he supported President Trump and is cutting government spending. The left’s lies are going to get someone hurt. Elon Musk: It’s a super big deal....

GREEN BAY (WLUK) -- Elon Musk held a Town Hall event at the KI Convention Center in downtown Green Bay Sunday night. Supporters began lining up hours before the 6:30 p.m. event. Musk threw his support behind Brad Schimel for Wisconsin's high stakes state Supreme Court race. "We want to restore individual freedoms. Freedom of speech, just in general. Get the government off your back," said Musk. "Vote for Judge, super Judge Schimel, I call him super Judge Schimel." Musk showed up in a cheese head before discussing restoring freedom to Americans, and the importance of Wisconsin's Spring Election. The...

PHOENIX (AP) — The Democratic base is angry. Not just at President Donald Trump, Elon Musk and the “Make America Great Again” movement. Rank-and-file Democrats are mad at their own leaders and increasingly agitating to replace them. Arizona Democrats pushed out their party chair, and Georgia Democrats are on their way to doing the same. And Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York postponed a book tour in the face of protests amid calls from progressives that he face a primary challenge. The losing party after a presidential election often spends time in the wilderness, but the visceral anger...

WASHINGTON, March 28 (Reuters) - The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission is beginning to bring on officials with billionaire Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency, according to an email sent on Friday to department staff. SEC staff were informed that the DOGE task force had contacted the regulator, and that they would be treated as staff for the purposes of network, system and data access. The SEC is establishing a liaison team with the "intent to partner" with DOGE, the email said. The memo was first reported by Reuters. "Our intent will be to partner with the DOGE representatives and...
