White House Press Secretary ended this politician’s career with these two words

0

Trump isn’t taking any nonsense. All of his appointments have been instructed to do the same.

Now the White House Press Secretary ended this politician’s career with these two words.

A Fiery Retort from the White House

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt didn’t mince words Monday when she clapped back at a French lawmaker’s suggestion that France should reclaim the Statue of Liberty from the U.S. over the Trump administration’s immigration policies.

During the daily press briefing, Leavitt took a bold swing, delivering a history lesson with bite.

“My advice to that unnamed low-level French politician would be to remind them that it’s only because of the United States of America that the French are not speaking German right now,” she declared.

“So they should be very grateful to our great country.”

The room filled with audible gasps from reporters, stunned by her pointed World War II reference.

The French Provocation

The drama kicked off with Raphaël Glucksmann, a left-wing French politician, who aired his grievances in an interview with Le Monde.

He argued that France should take back the Statue of Liberty—the iconic gift his country gave to the U.S.—now standing tall on New York City’s Liberty Island.

“We’re going to say to the Americans who have chosen to side with the tyrants, to the Americans who fired researchers for demanding scientific freedom: ‘Give us back the Statue of Liberty,’” Glucksmann told the outlet.

He doubled down at a convention of his left-leaning party, Place Publique, adding, “We gave it to you as a gift, but apparently you despise it. So it will be just fine here at home.” His words sparked a transatlantic spat, but not everyone’s buying his grand gesture.

A Monument Rooted in History

Glucksmann’s call might stir headlines, but UNESCO—the United Nations’ cultural arm, which lists the statue as a World Heritage treasure—makes it clear: the Statue of Liberty is U.S. government property.

It’s not going anywhere. Originally, the monument was a powerful symbol of friendship between France and America, dreamed up to mark the 100th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence.

That vision hit roadblocks, though. The Franco-Prussian War erupted in 1870, sidelining its designer, French sculptor Frédéric-Auguste Bartholdi, as conflict consumed his homeland. Funding was another hurdle: France agreed to bankroll the statue itself, while Americans footed the bill for its pedestal.

Shipped in 350 pieces across the Atlantic, the Statue of Liberty was finally unveiled on October 28, 1886—a testament to resilience and alliance that’s now at the center of this latest diplomatic dust-up.

Trump’s Bold Move to Nullify Biden’s Pardons

0

President Donald Trump kicked off the week with a fiery declaration, labeling former President Joe Biden’s pardons—especially those for the House Select Committee probing the Jan. 6 Capitol riot—as “VOID.” He’s pointing the finger at an autopen, claiming Biden was out of the loop entirely when those documents got stamped. It’s a gutsy opening salvo as Trump reclaims the White House spotlight.

“The ‘Pardons’ that Sleepy Joe Biden gave to the Unselect Committee of Political Thugs, and many others, are hereby declared VOID, VACANT, AND OF NO FURTHER FORCE OR EFFECT, because of the fact that they were done by Autopen,” Trump roared in a Truth Social post.

“In other words, Joe Biden did not sign them but, more importantly, he did not know anything about them! The necessary Pardoning Documents were not explained to, or approved by, Biden. He knew nothing about them, and the people that did may have committed a crime.” He’s not just voiding paper—he’s tossing a legal grenade.

Trump didn’t let up, adding, “Therefore, those on the Unselect Committee, who destroyed and deleted ALL evidence obtained during their two year Witch Hunt of me, and many other innocent people, should fully understand that they are subject to investigation at the highest level.

The fact is, they were probably responsible for the Documents that were signed on their behalf without the knowledge or consent of the Worst President in the History of our Country, Crooked Joe Biden!” It’s a promise of payback that’s got everyone buzzing.

Autopen Controversy Stokes Public Skepticism

The autopen accusation isn’t new—it’s been simmering since the Heritage Foundation’s Oversight Project dropped a bombshell earlier this month.

“We gathered every document we could find with Biden’s signature over the course of his presidency. All used the same autopen signature except for the announcement that the former President was dropping out of the race last year. Here is the autopen signature,” they posted on X, laying out the evidence like a courtroom exhibit. That one exception aside, it’s a robo-signature spree.

On Jan. 20, Biden’s last day in office, he rolled out pardons for “General Mark A. Milley, Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, the Members of Congress and staff who served on the Select Committee, and the U.S. Capitol and D.C. Metropolitan police officers who testified before the Select Committee.”

He called them honorable public servants, saying, “These public servants have served our nation with honor and distinction and do not deserve to be the targets of unjustified and politically motivated prosecutions.”

Noble words—but if an autopen did the signing, did he even know what he was pardoning? That’s the rub for Americans: a machine signing off on major moves like this screams “someone else is running the show,” shredding trust in a government that’s supposed to answer to the people.

When the president’s signature—his literal mark of authority—is just a mechanical scribble, it’s no surprise folks doubt who’s really in charge. Fox News Digital reached out to a Biden spokesperson for a response, but the silence so far only fuels the fire of suspicion.

Legal Limbo and a Crisis of Confidence

Trump doubled down on his stance Sunday night aboard Air Force One, fielding a question about whether Biden’s autopen-signed executive orders and pardons hold water.

“I think so. It’s not my decision. That would be up to a court,” he replied, tossing the hot potato to the judiciary while keeping the pressure on. It’s a calculated move—let the courts sort it out, but make sure everyone’s talking about it.

The Oversight Project’s findings bolster Trump’s case, suggesting Biden leaned hard on the autopen throughout his tenure. If true, it’s not just about Jan. 6 pardons—it’s a pattern that calls into question every big decision bearing his name.

This is why trust in government’s tanking: if Biden wasn’t personally signing off, who was? The public’s left wondering if unelected aides were steering the ship, turning democracy into a rubber-stamp sideshow.

For now, Trump’s “void” declaration hangs in the air, a challenge to Biden’s legacy and a test of what “presidential power” really means when a pen—or a machine—speaks for the man. With courts likely to weigh in, the autopen saga’s just getting started.

Democrats are in a tailspin after Marco Rubio dropped a massive truth bomb on them

0

The Left plays fast and loose with the facts. But they can’t escape this time.

Now Democrats are in a tailspin after Marco Rubio dropped a massive truth bomb on them.

Hypocrisy in Free Speech Debates

Secretary of State Marco Rubio didn’t hold back when he took a swipe at those rallying behind pro-Hamas activist Mahmoud Khalil, accusing them of hiding behind the First Amendment while conveniently forgetting their past crusades for online censorship.

Rubio unloaded his thoughts during a Sunday sit-down on CBS News’ “Face The Nation,” hosted by Margaret Brennan.

The topic came up after Khalil’s arrest by federal immigration authorities two weeks prior, sparking a heated debate.

“I find it ironic that a lot of these people out there defending the First Amendment speech, alleged free speech rights of these Hamas sympathizers they had no problem, okay, pressuring social media to censor American political speech,” Rubio said, his tone dripping with skepticism.

“So I think it’s ironic and hypocritical.” His jab zeroed in on the double standards he sees playing out, calling out the flip-flop with no hesitation.

A Hard Line on Terrorist Sympathizers

Rubio didn’t stop there, doubling down with a blunt take on what it means to let certain individuals into the country.

“But the bottom line is this, if you are in this country to promote Hamas, to promote terrorist organizations, to participate in vandalism, to participate in acts of rebellion and riots on campus, we never would have let you in if we had known that,” he continued.

“And now that we know it, you’re going to leave.”

He made it crystal clear: if you’re here stirring up trouble or backing groups like Hamas, your welcome’s officially worn out. It’s a stance that leaves little room for debate, aimed squarely at those who’ve crossed the line from guest to threat.

Protecting America’s Safety First

Rubio pushed back hard against critics trying to thwart the administration’s efforts to bolster national safety by deporting risky individuals.

“We don’t want terrorists in America,” he stated flatly.

“I don’t know how hard that is to understand. We want people – we don’t want people in our country that are going to be committing crimes and undermining our national security or the public safety. It’s that simple especially people that are here as guests. That is what a visa is.”

His remarks underscored a no-nonsense approach, drawing a firm line between welcoming visitors and tolerating threats—a distinction he believes should be obvious to anyone paying attention. For Rubio, it’s about keeping the nation secure, no apologies needed.

Trump sent a sobering threat to Vladimir Putin that left everyone in stunned silence

0

The war in Ukraine has gone on for too long. It has to be ended by any means.

Now Trump sent a sobering threat to Vladimir Putin that left everyone in stunned silence.

Trump’s Urgent Plea for Peace in Ukraine

President Donald Trump issued a stark warning to Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday, emphasizing the catastrophic toll of the ongoing Ukraine conflict and pressing for a ceasefire to save “millions” of lives. His words signal a renewed push to end a war he’s branded a devastating quagmire.

In a candid Truth Social post, Trump didn’t mince words: “Millions of people are needlessly dead, never to be seen again and there will be many more to follow if we don’t get the ceasefire and final agreement with Russia completed and signed.”

Calling the war “a real mess,” he framed the ceasefire—already greenlit by Ukraine—as a critical lifeline, even as Putin has yet to fully commit.

A Glimmer of Hope Amid Dire Stakes

Trump remains cautiously upbeat, telling reporters there’s “a very good chance” Russia will come on board with the U.S.-proposed 30-day ceasefire.

That optimism persists despite Putin’s public reservations, casting a shadow over the deal’s fate. Still, Trump’s team isn’t sitting idle—hours earlier, Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff wrapped up talks in Moscow, a mission Trump hailed as “very good and productive” in a follow-up post.

He painted a grim picture of the battlefield, noting, “At this very moment thousands of Ukrainian troops are completely surrounded by the Russian military and in a very bad and vulnerable position.”

Urging restraint, he added, “I have strongly requested to President Putin that their lives be spared. This would be a horrible massacre, one not seen since World War II. God bless them all!!” It’s a humanitarian plea wrapped in a strategic nudge—a hallmark of Trump’s hands-on approach.

Moscow’s Cautious Signals

The Kremlin’s response offers a flicker of alignment. Spokesman Dmitry Peskov told Russian media that Putin stands “in solidarity” with Trump’s aims, hinting at a future call between the leaders.

“The Russian side was provided with additional information. And also through Witkoff, Putin gave information and additional signals to President Trump,” Peskov said. “Certainly there are reasons to feel this cautious optimism.” Yet he tempered that with a reality check: “A great deal remains to be done.”

Moscow’s wishlist, though, complicates the picture. The Kremlin’s pushing for Ukraine to dismantle its sizable army as part of any peace deal—a nonstarter for Kyiv and its European allies. That sticking point looms large as negotiators wrestle with the ceasefire’s terms.

A High-Stakes Balancing Act

Trump’s latest moves blend urgency with diplomacy, spotlighting both the human cost of delay and the faint promise of resolution. His dire warnings to Putin underscore the stakes, while his praise for Witkoff’s Moscow talks keeps the momentum alive.

As the U.S.-backed ceasefire teeters on Russia’s response, Trump’s framing it as a now-or-never moment—one that could either halt the bloodshed or spiral into a tragedy of historic scale. The clock’s ticking, and the world’s watching.

Ex-Obama official hands Donald Trump a victory that left Barack fuming mad

Trump is shaking up Washington, D.C. Old loyalties are being broken.

Now ex-Obama official handed Donald Trump a victory that left Barack fuming mad.

A Glimmer of Peace in Russia-Ukraine Conflict

A surprising nod of approval came from an unexpected corner Thursday when former Obama Defense Secretary and CIA Director Leon Panetta praised President Donald Trump for laying the groundwork for a potential Russia-Ukraine ceasefire.

The prospect of a “clean” deal has injected fresh hope into a weary conflict.

The breakthrough stems from Tuesday, when Secretary of State Marco Rubio revealed Ukraine’s acceptance of a 30-day ceasefire proposed by the Trump administration. The ball’s now in Russia’s court, with all eyes on President Vladimir Putin.

In a Thursday address, Putin responded cautiously: “The idea itself is correct, and we certainly support it. But there are issues that we need to discuss.” His hesitance keeps the deal in limbo, but the door’s not shut.

Panetta’s Praise and a Call to Hold Firm

Appearing on “CNN News Central,” Panetta didn’t hesitate to give Trump his due.

“He’s been able to negotiate the possibility of a clean ceasefire. That’s to his credit,” he said, spotlighting Trump’s diplomatic finesse. But he paired the compliment with a challenge:

“Look, this is a test for the president. Whether he is going to stand strong for doing the right thing or whether he caves in to Putin, that’s going to be the issue. And I hope he stands strong.”

Panetta’s words carry weight, urging Trump to keep the pressure on. He cautioned against muddying the talks with side issues, warning it could “undermine [the] ability to get a ceasefire now.”

Instead, he urged a laser focus on the immediate goal. “What the president has to make clear to Putin is that he has a chance to accept a ceasefire now that will stop the killing,” he said. “Let’s do that and then let’s negotiate on the longer-term issues.”

Trump’s Optimism Meets Putin’s Pause

Panetta’s remarks landed just after Trump voiced cautious optimism to reporters, reacting to Putin’s statement.

“A lot of the details of a final agreement have actually been discussed,” Trump said. “Now we’re going to see whether or not Russia is there.”

He called Putin’s response “very promising” but noted it’s still a work in progress, adding, “If they’re not, it’ll be a very disappointing moment for the world.”

Trump’s holding out “hope” that Russia will “do the right thing,” a sentiment that echoes Panetta’s push for resolve. The ceasefire’s fate hangs on Putin’s next move, but the fact that it’s even on the table marks a shift—proof that Trump’s approach might just be cracking open a path to peace.

The Clintons were thrust back into the spotlight for one despicable reason

Bill and Hillary aren’t going anywhere. They may even be making a come back.

Now the Clintons were thrust back into the spotlight for one despicable reason.

Pence’s Coalition Takes Aim at FACE Act

A bold push from former Vice President Mike Pence’s nonprofit, Americans Advancing Freedom (AAF), is calling on House Republicans to dismantle a decades-old law they argue has been twisted into a weapon against pro-life activists. The group’s latest memo zeroes in on the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act, a Clinton-era statute now under fresh scrutiny.

Signed into law by President Bill Clinton in May 1994, the FACE Act made it a federal offense to use force, threats, or obstruction to disrupt abortion services—covering everything from blocking clinic doors to attacking staff or damaging property. While its intent was clear, AAF contends it’s been hijacked to unfairly target those standing for life.

Trump’s Pardons Spark Momentum

The debate gained steam early in President Donald Trump’s current term when he pardoned nearly two dozen pro-life activists jailed for their roles in 2020 clinic demonstrations. Among them were three elderly advocates, all charged by the Biden administration’s Department of Justice (DOJ) with violating the FACE Act.

Trump didn’t mince words during the pardons: “They should not have been prosecuted.” His move signaled a sharp break from the previous administration’s approach and set the stage for a broader fight.

AAF’s memo, fired off to the House Judiciary Committee on Thursday afternoon, doubles down. “Congress must do its part to support President Trump’s effort to end the weaponization of government by repealing the FACE Act in its entirety,” it declares.

“There’s no question that the Biden Administration weaponized the FACE Act against pro-life Americans.” The group paints a grim picture of “early morning SWAT team raids, unjust prison sentences, and alleged mistreatment while in custody” under Biden’s watch.

Voices from the Frontlines

Last month, the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Oversight dug into the issue during a hearing titled “Entering the Golden Age: Ending the Weaponization of the Justice Department.”

Peter Breen of the Thomas More Society didn’t hold back, testifying that one of his clients endured a SWAT raid and a harsh prison term.

“The Biden DOJ engaged in a systematic campaign to abuse the power of the federal government against pro-life advocates,” he said, “while that same DOJ ignored hundreds of acts of vandalism and violence against pro-life churches, pregnancy help centers, and other advocates.”

The contrast couldn’t be starker. While Biden’s team leaned hard into abortion rights, Trump’s administration is flipping the script.

In January, he axed two Biden-era executive orders expanding abortion services, reinforcing the Hyde Amendment’s ban on federal funding for elective abortions. Now, conservatives see the FACE Act as the next domino to topple in the pro-life push.

A Legislative Fight Brews

Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas) is leading the charge, reintroducing a bill in January to repeal the law outright. Armed with data showing 97% of FACE Act prosecutions from 1994 to 2024 targeted pro-life individuals, Roy’s got 32 House co-sponsors in his corner and Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) mirroring the effort in the Senate.

The numbers tell a story of lopsided enforcement—under Biden alone, the DOJ launched at least 15 cases involving 46 pro-life defendants since 2021, per 2023 media reports, with abortion-rights supporters as the victims in nearly every instance.

For Pence’s AAF and its allies, this isn’t just about policy—it’s about justice. The FACE Act, they argue, has morphed from a shield into a sword, and dismantling it could level the playing field for those fighting for the unborn.

As the legislative wheels turn, the clash over this 30-year-old law is shaping up as a defining moment in the pro-life movement’s next chapter.

Russian national arrested after brazenly attacking the United States

0

America’s enemies are working behind the scenes. They’ll do anything to take us down.

Now a Russian national was arrested after brazenly attacking the United States.

Dramatic Collision Rocks the North Sea

A tense maritime drama unfolded this week when a Portuguese-registered cargo ship smashed into a U.S.-flagged tanker in the North Sea, sparking an immediate arrest and raising fresh questions about safety and intent. The American vessel, tasked with ferrying jet fuel for the U.S. military, found itself at the center of an unexpected crisis.

The captain of the offending ship, a 59-year-old Russian national whose identity remains under wraps, was swiftly detained by British authorities.

He faces charges of gross negligence manslaughter following the Monday incident, which saw his MV Solong container ship plow into the anchored MV Stena Immaculate off the U.K. coast.

A Military Mission Interrupted

The Stena Immaculate wasn’t just any ship—it was on a critical 70-day assignment for the Military Sealift Command, supporting the Defense Logistics Agency’s efforts to keep U.S. military fuel flowing, according to USNI News.

Despite the violent collision and subsequent explosions, a U.S. official reassured Reuters, “The collision and ensuing explosions will not impact operations or combat readiness. We do not have a single point of failure.” It’s a bold statement that underscores the resilience baked into America’s logistical backbone.

Still, the incident’s timing and nature have officials on edge. With Russia’s war in Ukraine grinding on, suspicions linger about possible foul play.

While no hard evidence ties Moscow to this crash, the Kremlin’s track record—sabotaging European undersea cables, hitting manufacturing sites vital to Ukraine, and even plotting to bomb U.S.-bound cargo planes—casts a long shadow over the investigation.

Unanswered Questions in a Tech-Savvy Era

Martyn Boyers, the head of the Port of Grimsby East near the collision site, couldn’t hide his astonishment when speaking to CNN.

“It seems a mystery, really, because all the vessels now have very highly sophisticated technical equipment to plot courses and to look at any obstacles or anything they’ve got to avoid,” he said. Modern navigation tools should’ve made this a non-issue, yet here we are.

Boyers didn’t stop there. “They must have been able to detect it on the radar,” he insisted, pointing to “warning signs” that should’ve flashed aboard the Solong.

His words paint a picture of a baffling lapse—whether human error or something more sinister, it’s a puzzle that demands answers.

Caught on Camera Amid the Fog

The exact moment of impact didn’t go unnoticed. Orca AI’s SeaPod unit captured the collision in striking detail, blending standard video with thermal imaging.

The footage reveals a foggy backdrop, adding a layer of complexity to the scene, but not enough to excuse the crash given today’s tech. It’s a chilling visual that’s sure to fuel debates about what went wrong.

As investigators dig deeper, the North Sea incident stands as a stark reminder of the stakes at play—where military contracts, international tensions, and maritime safety collide.

With the Russian captain in custody and the U.S. military unshaken, the next chapter of this saga promises to unravel more than just the fog.

Senior DHS official got taken away in handcuffs for this disgusting crime

0

Trump is cleaning house. And now he’s uncovering the unthinkable.

Because a senior DHS official got taken away in handcuffs for this disgusting crime.

Shocking Allegations Surface at DHSv

A startling discovery has emerged from newly unsealed court documents this Tuesday, revealing that Serina Baker Hill, a senior official at the Department of Homeland Security, is under scrutiny for possible ties to drug trafficking. This bombshell adds a layer of intrigue to an already troubling case of alleged fraud against the government.

Hill, who served as the director of Customs and Border Protection’s Center for Excellence and Expertise over Automotive and Aerospace Engineering, faces charges tied to a scheme that exploited disaster relief funds. Authorities allege she misrepresented the condition of her flood-damaged home to siphon thousands of dollars from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) following a deluge in Detroit on August 24, 2023.

A Web of Deception Unraveled

The investigation took a dramatic turn when wiretaps, originally set up to monitor Hill’s husband, Maurice Hill, for suspected drug trafficking, caught the couple discussing their fraudulent plot.

“During the course of the investigations, it was discovered that both HILL and Maurice had engaged in a scheme to defraud FEMA after flooding occurred in Detroit, Michigan on August 24, 2023,” wrote FBI Special Agent Andrew J. Matas. What began as a probe into Maurice’s activities widened to include Serina, given her high-ranking government role.

The couple’s alleged scam came to light through these intercepted conversations. When confronted by agents in a 2024 interview, Hill doubled down, lying about her actions, according to Matas. Now, she faces a slew of charges: wire fraud, disaster fraud, making false statements, and lying to federal investigators—stemming from her denial of ever defrauding the government.

From Relief Funds to Designer Dreams

Court filings paint a vivid picture of the Hills’ alleged misconduct. They filed disaster claims for two Detroit properties last year. Maurice’s claim was swiftly flagged as fraudulent since it wasn’t their primary residence.

Serina’s application, however, targeted their actual home. After a FEMA inspector visited, she claimed the basement repairs made it unsafe to stay, securing $3,125 for fixes and $3,190 for two months of rent. The funds hit their account that same day.

Hours later, the FBI captured a telling exchange. Maurice quipped about splurging on “some Guccis” with the cash, saying, “They probably want you to fix something.” Serina responded with a nonchalant, “Is that how it works?”

In another call that day, they schemed to fake an inspector’s letter to milk FEMA for more, with Serina plotting, “We don’t want it to be okay. We want them to have issues.” Their casual greed stands in stark contrast to the relief program’s intent.

FBI’s Renewed Push and Agency Fallout

FBI Director Kash Patel took to social media to tout the case as a win for justice. “This is part of the new FBI’s renewed efforts to crack down on public corruption and deliver accountability for the American people,” he declared.

“Justice will be done.” The broader investigation into Maurice Hill’s drug trafficking and “other offenses” continues, with Serina’s role as an “interceptee” on the wiretap underscoring the overlap between their alleged crimes.

Customs and Border Protection has distanced itself from Hill, noting she wasn’t a sworn officer and has been sidelined on unpaid leave pending her case’s resolution. As of Wednesday, no attorney was listed for her in court records. This unfolding saga at the intersection of public service and personal gain promises to keep investigators—and the public—on edge as more details emerge.

Tim Walz confessed to something truly shocking on MSNBC

0

The failed vice presidential candidate is telling all. And it’s not looking good.

Because he confessed to something truly shocking on MSNBC.

A Defeated Walz Points Fingers After 2024 Loss

Tim Walz, the Minnesota governor who fell short as Kamala Harris’s running mate in the 2024 election, has been vocal about his self-assigned blame for the Democratic Party’s current struggles. With President Trump back in the White House and rolling out his agenda, Walz is scrambling to make sense of the political landscape—and his own role in its unraveling.

At 60, Walz didn’t hold back during a recent MSNBC appearance on “All In with Chris Hayes.” “I think Americans have had it, I hope they’ve had it and now we just need to do what we can do to make the case. Look, I own this, we wouldn’t be in this mess if we would’ve won the election and we didn’t,” he vented.

His claim that America “wouldn’t be in this mess” if he and Harris had triumphed in November paints a picture of a man haunted by what-ifs, though it conveniently sidesteps the electorate’s clear rejection of their ticket.

Vague Critiques and Empty Alternatives

Walz insisted the Democrats need to pivot, saying, “We have to make sure that Americans know it’s just not that Donald Trump is bad, but that we’re offering something better.” Yet, when pressed for specifics on what that “better” might entail, he came up empty-handed.

Instead, he took aim at Trump’s moves—like slapping tariffs on Canadian goods, tightening the U.S. border, and dismantling the Department of Education—dismissing them as “incredibly disruptive” to Minnesotans. He argued that cross-border communities are reeling from the tariffs, but his indignation feels more like sour grapes than a coherent counterplan.

His disdain for Trump took a theatrical turn as he sneered, “Donald Trump is this caricature that had a reality TV show that pretended like he knew how to run businesses. The reality is he doesn’t.”

Doubling down, he added, “The claim that he is the business president. He is the worst possible business executive that I have ever witnessed.” Walz’s personal jabs might rally the MSNBC crowd, but they do little to mask his failure to articulate a compelling Democratic vision.

A Reluctant Nod to Trump’s Appeal

Despite his bluster, Walz couldn’t fully dismiss the appeal of Trump’s approach. “Look, I’m conservative and I believe that systems work for a long time, that you don’t have to break them. Are there improvements that need to be done? Yes, and I think we’re guilty of sometimes of not acting. Could the Department of Education be more efficient? Absolutely,” he conceded.

He even admitted that Trump’s idea of funneling education funds directly to local schools “sounds pretty good.” It’s a rare moment of candor from Walz, though it undercuts his broader narrative of Trump as a reckless destroyer.

Still, he struggled to reconcile this with his broader critique. Welcoming “disruptors” who shake up government stagnation, he grumbled, “What is the goal and where is it backed up? There’s not a single economist that backs tariffs. There’s no one there.”

His frustration hints at a deeper problem: Walz sees the allure of shaking things up but can’t—or won’t—offer a clear alternative. “We have not provided what that alternative looks like and I think it’s fair,” he admitted, a confession that rings more like an indictment of his own leadership.

Walz’s Next Move: Iowa and Medicaid Missteps

Looking ahead, Walz plans to head to Iowa on Friday for a town hall, where he’ll field questions about why Republicans allegedly want to “cut Medicaid”—a claim the Trump White House has repeatedly shot down.

“The Trump Administration will not cut Social Security, Medicare, or Medicaid benefits. President Trump himself has said it (over and over and over again),” the White House clarified Tuesday, pointing instead to a focus on rooting out “waste and fraud.” Walz’s decision to lean into this narrative suggests he’s more comfortable peddling debunked talking points than grappling with the reality of Trump’s agenda—or his own shortcomings.

Walz’s post-election reckoning reveals a politician eager to cast blame, quick with a quip, but slow to deliver substance. As he rails against Trump’s policies, his slight concessions to their logic only highlight the Democrats’ failure to adapt—leaving voters to wonder if Walz’s rhetoric is more about soothing his own bruised ego than charting a path forward.

Trump’s Border Czar threatened one Democrat Governor over this shocking crime

0

The Left will do anything to stop Trump’s agenda. They’ll even break the law.

And now Trump’s Border Czar threatened one Democrat Governor over this shocking crime.

Border Czar Warns New York: Cooperate or Face an ICE Surge

Border czar Tom Homan delivered a clear message to New York Governor Kathy Hochul on Wednesday—either cooperate with federal immigration crackdowns or prepare for a flood of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents across the state.

Speaking alongside Albany Republicans at the state Capitol, Homan didn’t mince words when addressing Hochul and other Democrats defending sanctuary city policies.

“Sanctuary cities are going to get exactly what they don’t want: more ICE agents in your community,” Homan warned.

“We’ll double the man-force if we have to. Rather than one officer arresting a bad guy, now I have to send a whole team.”

Homan’s tough stance signals the Trump administration’s ongoing commitment to enforcing immigration laws—whether blue-state leaders like it or not.

Praise for Mayor Adams Amid Crackdown Cooperation

While Homan issued sharp warnings to Governor Hochul, he struck a much different tone toward New York City Mayor Eric Adams. Despite Adams’ usual alignment with Democrat policies, Homan applauded the mayor’s willingness to work with the Trump administration on immigration enforcement.

“He’s made great commitments, we’re working on some things, I can’t share it all with you right now,” Homan said, revealing he will meet with Adams again this week—their third meeting in recent months.

The border czar also dismissed media speculation that Adams’ cooperation was tied to the Trump administration easing off a corruption investigation into the mayor’s office.

“I’ve been talking with him since November, I had nothing to do with that,” Homan stated plainly.

This unexpected alliance between Homan and Adams suggests that at least one New York Democrat understands the need for serious border enforcement.

Republicans Push Back Against Sanctuary Policies

Homan’s comments came during a rally led by Republican lawmakers pushing to repeal New York’s controversial Green Light Law—a measure that allows illegal immigrants to obtain driver’s licenses.

GOP leaders are also pushing for passage of the state’s Laken Riley Act, which aims to dismantle sanctuary city policies.

When asked whether he would meet with Governor Hochul during his time in Albany, Homan’s response was simple: “She knows my number.”

With the Trump administration turning up the heat on lawless sanctuary cities, it’s clear that cooperation is no longer optional. And if Hochul continues to resist, New York may soon find itself under the watchful eye of even more federal immigration agents.

CNN is in hot water after exposing the Democrat Party’s Achilles’ heel

0

The mainstream media usually pushes the Left’s agenda. But sometimes the truth breaks through.

And now CNN is in hot water after exposing the Democrat Party’s Achilles’ heel.

Here’s the revised version with three sections and appropriate headers:

Van Jones Admits: “We’re Screwed”

CNN commentator Van Jones didn’t hold back on Sunday, delivering a blunt assessment of the Democratic Party’s ongoing dysfunction. According to Jones, unless Democrats can find a way to regroup and rethink their messaging, they’ll remain stuck in neutral—struggling to connect with voters and failing to achieve any meaningful policy goals.

Appearing on CNN Newsroom Sunday with anchor Jessica Dean, Jones was asked to weigh in on the state of the Democratic Party—especially after the embarrassing outbursts during and after President Donald Trump’s powerful address to a joint session of Congress.

At first, Jones tried to avoid the topic altogether. “Can we ask another question?” he deflected. “Can we talk about Ukraine or something?”

But when pressed, Jones didn’t sugarcoat the reality Democrats are facing.

“Look, man, we’re screwed,” Jones admitted. “I mean, we don’t know—Democrats don’t know what to do. This is—this is a nightmare. You know, somebody like Donald Trump, we thought we’d at least have Hakeem Jeffries in the Speaker’s chair to hold him back if we didn’t have Kamala in there to do the right thing.”

It’s a stunning admission from a party insider. After years of attacking Trump and doubling down on identity politics, Democrats are left floundering without a clear strategy—or a leader strong enough to challenge the President’s America-first agenda.

A Failing Message and Alienated Voters

Jones pointed to the party’s failed messaging as a key reason for their continued downward spiral, suggesting they are still paying the price for their disastrous 2024 campaign.

“Listen, the Democratic Party is going through a massive set of internal crises. You have a party that got trapped two ways. One, defending a broken status quo that nobody likes because they thought that Donald Trump was going to make it worse. But when you’re defending the status quo, you’re going to lose,” he explained.

And Democrats aren’t just clinging to failed policies—they’re actively alienating everyday Americans with their condescending rhetoric.

“And then offending most people in the country, calling everybody sexist and racist and transphobic and every other name, and then saying, ‘Please follow us.’ That’s not a good strategy, folks,” Jones added.

In other words, the Democrats’ playbook of smearing half the country while pushing an out-of-touch agenda isn’t working—and even their own operatives are starting to admit it.

“Defending a broken status quo and offending most of the country turns out to not be as popular as my party thought it was going to be,” Jones concluded. “And so it’s going to take a while for people to get it figured out.”

Democrats “On Their Heels” as Trump Advances

Jones isn’t the only Democrat waving the white flag. Senator Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) echoed his grim outlook during an appearance on NBC’s Meet the Press, telling host Kristen Welker that Democrats have been “on their heels” since the election.

It’s a revealing confession from within the party’s own ranks. Despite their nonstop attacks on President Trump, the Democratic Party remains directionless, unable to mount a coherent opposition.

Meanwhile, President Trump continues to press forward with a bold, results-driven agenda—leaving Democrats scrambling to recover from their self-inflicted wounds. As long as their party remains in chaos, it’s clear Trump’s momentum isn’t slowing down anytime soon.

Democrats are literally going crazy over Donald Trump: psychologist

The term Trump Derangement Syndrome started as a joke. But the reality is even scarier than anyone thought.

Now Democrats are literally going crazy over Donald Trump: psychologist.

The Trump administration’s bold reforms are shaking up Washington, and not everyone is happy about it. Some groups—especially those tied to bloated federal programs—are worried that their jobs could be next on the chopping block as the administration takes aim at wasteful spending. According to one Georgetown University psychology professor, these changes are even driving some people to therapy.

“I’m getting an increased amount of inquiries from people who are just feeling very anxious in general, and it’s exacerbated by the state of the country,” Dr. Andrea Bonior told Fox News Digital.

Bonior says her clients—many of whom are federal workers, humanitarians, and academics—are feeling the heat as billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk leads the charge to clean up Washington’s excess. Musk’s aggressive cost-cutting efforts, part of the newly formed Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), are focusing on trimming federal jobs, grants, and wasteful programs. Unsurprisingly, many of her worried patients hail from the D.C. area, where she balances her Georgetown teaching duties with a part-time private practice.

According to Bonior, the fear is most pronounced among those with ties to the federal government or federally funded projects.

“I’ve had some clients who were technically probationary workers because they had gotten promotions, so they had been longtime civil servants, public servants, but they were treated like someone who was just coming out of college and getting their first job because they were probationary,” she shared.

“They were probationary because they were in a new position, having been promoted for having done such a great job.”

DOGE, established during the beginning of President Trump’s second term, was created to root out waste, fraud, and abuse while streamlining government operations. With a planned dissolution date of July 4, 2026, its mission is clear: cut the fat and return power to the people.

Trump has praised Musk’s leadership and unwavering commitment to the cause. In a “Sunday Morning Futures” exclusive interview over the weekend, Trump called Musk a “real patriot” for “opening a lot of eyes” to the outrageous spending habits that DOGE is exposing. The President has made it clear to his cabinet that cooperation with DOGE is non-negotiable, urging agency heads to use a “scalpel” when deciding which jobs to keep.

Yet, as Washington insiders scramble to protect their interests, Bonior claims the effects of DOGE’s reforms are rippling through sectors with humanitarian and nonprofit ties.

Researchers and scientists in higher education are also feeling the pinch, Bonior says, especially those reliant on federal grants. Veterans working for the government—a significant group—are likewise facing uncertainty due to the budget cuts.

But it’s not just Washington elites who are worried. Bonior says her telehealth practice, which spans multiple states, is flooded with messages from people expressing concerns about financial security and broader economic uncertainty.

“I think there’s a larger concern that goes beyond policy, and I’m actually, in the past couple of days, hearing from a lot of people who are just concerned about financial insecurity and concerned about the just destabilization of even the stock markets and even people who consider themselves to be not having anything to do with this,” she said, adding, “I think there’s just a larger concern that the whole tone of this administration feels different.”

However, as Trump’s agenda disrupts the status quo, it’s clear many of those complaining are the very same people who benefited from years of unchecked government largesse. Bonior even admitted to Axios that more and more disillusioned Democrats are seeking help as they wrestle with “burnout, guilt, and despair” over the loss of their old way of life.

Interestingly, Bonior acknowledged that dissatisfaction isn’t limited to one political party. Some Republicans working in federal positions worry about cuts to research funding, while others—such as conservative Christians—are uneasy about reductions in humanitarian aid.

“Contrary to maybe popular belief, there are plenty of Republicans that work in the federal government that are being directly affected. There are plenty of Republicans who care immensely about scientific research and solving medical problems that face this country, and cancer research and Alzheimer’s research and research on childhood disorders… there are lots of conservative Christians who really are concerned with the humanitarian aid cuts and… I think that’s where it really goes to an issue that’s no longer a political issue. I think there are a lot of people who feel that this is a moral issue,” she said.

Still, some of those now feeling the squeeze were once Trump supporters themselves.

“I’ve heard from several folks that have said… ‘I admit this [DOGE] sounded good in theory. Maybe I even voted for Trump, but now I’m feeling completely abandoned because my job is on the chopping block,’” Bonior added.

When Fox News Digital reached out to the White House, Principal Deputy Press Secretary Harrison Fields didn’t mince words, defending the President’s commitment to fixing a broken system.

“President Trump returned to Washington with a mandate from the American people to bring about unprecedented change in our federal government to uproot waste, fraud, and abuse. This isn’t easy to do in a broken system entrenched in bureaucracy and bloat, but it’s a task long overdue. The personal financial situation of every American is top of mind for the President, which is why he’s working to cut regulations, reshore jobs, lower taxes, and make government more efficient,” Fields said.

Despite the noise from Washington’s entrenched bureaucracy, one thing is clear: Trump isn’t backing down. With Musk leading the charge at DOGE, the administration is delivering on its promise to dismantle the swamp—one wasteful program at a time.
