Elon Musk has regained his position as the world's richest man with a net worth of $187.1 billion thanks to Tesla's booming stock price. He has regained the title from Bernard Arnault, boss of luxury goods company LVMH, who's now second richest with a net worth of $185.3 billion. Musk's wealth has been boosted as shares in Tesla, his electric car company, have nearly doubled since the start of 2023. The company was one of many tech stocks to suffer badly last year but it's currently trading at $207.63-a-share - compared with $108.10 on January 2.

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) said Wednesday on “The Hugh Hewitt Show” that former President Donald Trump will be indicted before the Republican presidential primary debates begin later this summer.
Partial transcript as follows:
HEWITT: All right, now given that all that you know about the President’s legal peril from the perspective of being a prosecutor for so many years, knowing the President, following not int eh inside of his legal team, but from the outside and knowing all the players, do you expect he will be indicted before the debates begin in July and August, for, by either the Georgia Fulton County prosecutor,
An easyJet flight from Iceland to England made a quick detour to let passengers on both sides of the plane see the northern lights.
The easyJet flight 1806 made the loop on Monday night as it was traveling from Reykjavik to Manchester, the airline told ABC News in a statement."We are pleased that the captain on our flight from Reykjavik to Manchester yesterday evening was able to perform a controlled [maneuver] in order to allow passengers to witness an amazing display from the air of one of nature's greatest sights, the Aurora Borealis," easyJet told ABC News in a statement.
Jurors in Alex Murdaugh's double murder trial today visited the family's hunting lodge which has remained frozen in time, with bullet hole-riddled windows and forgotten family possessions.
Eerie footage showed the kennels where Murdaugh's wife Maggie, 52, and son Paul, 22, were shot dead on the hunting estate in Moselle on the night of June 7, 2021.
The video revealed a plant pot painted with the name 'Buster' and a snowman standing on a table between two rocking chairs on the porch.

Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., grilled Attorney General Merrick Garland over the FBI raid on a pro-life Christian man and asked whether the Department of Justice (DOJ) had an "anti-Catholic bias."
"Our department protects all religions, all ideologies. It does not have any bias against any religion of any kind," Garland said, fielding the question from Hawley during Wednesday's Senate Judiciary Committee hearing.
Hawley then characterized the DOJ as an agency quick to expend resources and intelligence to be deployed against Catholics while "turning a blind eye" as people are executed in the streets of American cities.
"Your answer frankly surprises me," Hawley added.

Origins of COVID 6 replies
Senators Mike Braun and Josh Hawley have reintroduced a bill that would require President Joe Biden to declassify intelligence related to the origins of COVID-19, specifically the possibility that it leaked from a lab in Wuhan, China. The bill is called the COVID-19 Origin Transparency Act. The senators believe that the American people deserve to know the truth about the origins of the pandemic and that declassifying intelligence will help in preventing future pandemics. (Tweet) The COVID-19 Origin Transparency Act has been introduced by Senators Mike Braun and Josh Hawley, which would require President Joe Biden to declassify intelligence related to the origins of COVID-19.
Sometimes I write an article and the topic is so insane that I’m not even sure what to say. In this case, I’m going to do my best, but understand that it’s difficult to put words down when you watch something that is this awful. What I’m about to share is that rage-inducing.
Joe Biden appeared in Maryland on Wednesday evening to speak to the House Democratic Caucus Issues Conference (whatever that is). And while the typical political bluster about “assault weapons” and such was on full display, there was one moment that is destined to go viral, and not for a good reason.
While speaking, Biden decided to laugh
Is Pete going to fix this? Because ever since he took over the Department of Transportation, it seems as if every method of travel is crashing or derailing. It goes beyond the catastrophic crash in East Palestine, Ohio, that’s rapidly becoming an environmental crisis. Buttigieg finally arrived two weeks later, but it was clear, given the town's political leanings, that the Biden folks had no intention of assisting in any meaningful way. Before this Ohio catastrophe, air travel collapsed over the holidays over a software glitch that Mayor Pete was abreast of but did nothing.
It has become abundantly clear that the Biden administration and their accomplices are in favor of abortion. They’ll do whatever it takes to further the pro-abort narrative even if that means allowing pro-aborts to get away with violent acts of domestic terrorism while arresting innocent pro-lifers.
Flashback to September 2022, when father and husband Mark Houck was bombarded with at least two-dozen armed FBI agents and arrested over a minor altercation he’d had with an abortion supporter. The arrest was absolutely berserk and Houck, as of Jan. 2023, has been cleared of all counts
Dozens of Democrats joined Republicans in voting for a House bill that would require President Biden to offer an inflation impact assessment before issuing executive orders.
The final vote count was 272-148. Four rightwing Republicans - Reps. Bob Good, Va., Andy Biggs, Ariz., Matt Rosendale, Mont., and Chip Roy, Texas voted against the bill. Fifty-nine Democrats voted for the measure.
The bill, entitled the Reduce Exacerbated Inflation Negatively Impacting the Nation (REIN IN) Act, was brought to the floor after consumer prices rose 0.5 percent between January and February, for a 6.5 percent yearly rise.
A group of bipartisan senators is quietly meeting to retool Social Security before funds run out in 2032.
On the table, according to Semafor, is gradually raising the retirement age to 70 and creating a $1.5 trillion sovereign wealth fund, which would invest in stocks.
That fund would be separate from the already existing Social Security Trust Fund. If it underperformed, Social Security would be shored up by increasing the maximum taxable income and payroll taxes.
Leading the efforts are Sens. Bill Cassidy, a Louisiana Republican, and Angus King, a Maine independent who caucuses with the Democrats.
Former President Donald Trump said Tuesday that he would strike a peace deal to end the Ukraine war “within 24 hours” if he were commander-in-chief.
“Russia would not have invaded Ukraine if I were in the White House, and what’s going on there is a horror show,” Trump said during an interview on Salem News Channel’s America First with Sebastian Gorka.
The 45th president shared his belief with Gorka that the media are drastically underreporting the number of deaths in the war.
“Those cities are being leveled, I mean, they’re being leveled. I’ve looked photos and aerials of cities where there’s not a building standing, and then they’ll say
The Senate voted 50 to 46 to block a Biden administration rule allowing retirement fund managers to consider environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors in investment decisions for nearly half the country.
Moderate Democrat Sens. Joe Manchin, W. Va., and Jon Tester, Mont., sided with Republicans on the resolution of disapproval. Sens. John Fetterman, D-Pa., and Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., did not vote due to health issues.
The bill now goes to the president's desk, and White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said he would veto it.

As turmoil rages on between Russia and Ukraine, President Zelensky discussed what U.S. citizens should expect if Ukraine loses the war.
The thought of Americans fighting another war on European soil has many debating the state of the country right now.
Zelensky said, “The US will have to send their sons and daughters exactly the same way as we are sending our sons and daughters to war.”
“And they will have to to fight, because it’s NATO that we’re talking about, and they will be dying.”

On February 20, 100 Percent Fed Up reported about the newly elected House Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s decision to release all of the 44,000 hours of footage from January 6, 2021, to Fox News host Tucker Carlson, giving him exclusive access to Capitol surveillance footage.“I’ve watched what Nancy Pelosi did, where she politicized [Jan. 6],” said McCarthy. “Where for the first time in the history as a speaker, not allowing the minority to appoint to a committee.”
“We watched the politicization of this,” McCarthy said. “I think the American public should actually see all that happened instead of a report that’s written for a political basis.”
The Washington, D.C. city council made it official on Monday, illegal immigrants and other non-citizens can now vote in local elections. The Democrat-run district that serves as the nation’s capital went so far as to allow foreign diplomats to cast a vote.
That’s according to various reports that the city council passed the Local Resident Voting Rights Amendment Act after a 30-day congressional review period ended — the GOP-led House pushed to block the D.C. law from taking effect but the Democrat-run Senate let the clock expire without taking action.
The law requires a person to be 18 and to have lived in D.C. for 30 days to be eligible to vote,
Twitter users recoiled after President Biden gave intimate details of his treatment in a medical facility Tuesday.
Biden was speaking about healthcare policy in Virginia Beach, Virginia, when he told a story about a nurse he said was named Pearl Nelson.
"She'd come in and do things I don't think you learn in nursing school," he said.
She'd whisper in my ear, I couldn't understand, but she'd whisper, and she'd lean down and actually breathe on me to make sure there was a human connection," Biden continued.
Pennsylvania Republicans are calling on Democrat Senator John Fetterman to appear on camera to prove he is “alive and well” or resign.
“Because of the now confirmed lies that were told during the 2022 general election regarding the health of Senator John Fetterman, as well as the threats made against a journalist who interviewed him, the Washington County Republican Party refuses to take assurances from the Office of the Senator or Democrat operatives that Fetterman is able to carry out his duties as Senator,” the Washington County Republican Party said in a Facebook post.

Biden said white people are stupid.
“I may be a white boy, but I’m not stupid,” Biden said to cheers. “I know where the power is. You think I’m joking!”
Joe Biden also began shouting out of no where.
“We just have to remember who we are! We are the United States of America!” Biden shouted.
Why is he shouting like this?
On Sunday night, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis appeared on “Life, Liberty, and Levin” on Fox News, purportedly to promote his new book, The Courage to Be Free, which comes out this week. While DeSantis has not yet declared that he’s running for president, he certainly sounded like a man who’s making the case for his candidacy. Or, if not, he’s making a case for conservatism as the path to American success and prosperity— the subtitle of the book is “Florida’s Blueprint for America’s Revival.”
As my colleague Stephen Green pointed out earlier today:
DeSantis isn’t traveling to early presidential primary states like Iowa or New Hamphire, at least not yet. Instead,
As RedState reported on Tuesday, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot lost her reelection, and not by a little. According to the polls, she was something of an afterthought, falling well behind Paul Vallas and runner-up Brandon Johnson who got 33.77 and 20.29 percent of the vote respectively.
Lightfoot limped into third with 17 percent of the vote.
Naturally, like any good radical leftist, Lightfoot took no personal responsibility for her loss, choosing to blame it instead on others. In this case, the entire city of Chicago is guilty of being sexist and racist as reported by the New York Post:
“I’m a black woman in America. Of course,”
Governor Chris Sununu (R-NH) said Tuesday on SiriusXM POTUS channel’s “The Briefing” that he is considering running for president in the Republican primary.
Host Steve Scully asked, “When does Governor Chris Sununu announce that he is running for president?”
Sununu said, “Oh boy. Look, I’ll tell you – I don’t know when that is and the if and when, maybe this summer, we’ll get to that. But I’ve got to tell you, we have created this organization, and I think that’s why we’re getting a lot of national attention, and I’m honored in that the New Hampshire model is really successful. And so people have asked me
Democratic Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot has lost her bid for re-election as the race heads to runoff without her after no candidate reached the required 50% vote threshold to be elected. Lightfoot faced challenges from eight other candidates in the race, including Chicago Public Schools CEO and city budget director Paul Vallas, who held a significant double-digit lead in the polls ahead of Election Day.
Leading up to the election, Lightfoot also narrowly trailed Brandon Johnson, a member of the Cook County Board of Commissioners, by two points, and was in a dead heat with Democratic Rep. Jesus "Chuy" Garcia who represents Illinois's 4th Congressional District.

Sen. John Fetterman’s (D-Penn.) staff has released an update regarding his condition. Fetterman remains hospitalized at Walter Reed Medical Center as he undergoes treatment for clinical depression.
It’s not a very detailed update.
“We don’t have a lot to update folks with since there’s no real news to report except that John is doing well, working with the wonderful doctors, and remains on a path to recovery,” Fetterman’s communications director Joe Calvello said in a statement. “He is visiting with staff and family daily, and his staff are keeping him updated on Senate business and news.”
“We understand the intense interest in John’s status
A Miami judge declined to block Florida’s 15-week abortion ban, HB 5, on Friday in a lawsuit brought by clergy members of several different faiths.
The clergy members — three rabbis, a Unitarian Universalist minister, an Episcopal Church priest, a Buddhist lama, and a United Church of Christ reverend — filed separate lawsuits against the State of Florida in August claiming that the law violates their rights to freedom of speech and freedom of religion. Those lawsuits have since been consolidated into one case.
The clergy members argue in their complaint that the law puts them “at risk of prosecution for counseling women, girls, and families to obtain an abortion
