But together, we’re not going to let them do it. Not an inch back.”

A Denver city councilwoman facing a runoff election in June said white-owned businesses should pay reparations for the sins of slavery.
During a business forum, Candi CdeBaca — a Democrat socialist — said the race-based tax could be levied by the business improvement districts, as first reported by 9News. A business improvement district is managed by local business owners, residents, and local government officials and can levy incremental tax increases which are then redistributed in a specific geographic region, according to the U.S. Department of Transportation.
King Charles took to his feet to dance alongside the Queen at the Coronation concert as they got carried away with their family to the music of Lionel Richie, Katy Perry and a spectacular Take That finale.
Prince George and Princess Charlotte led the royals in a singalong during the final performance from the British boy band at Windsor Castle.
Charles III and his wife Camilla also laughed uproariously at Miss Piggy and Kermit the Frog, who even appeared in the royal box with them before the stage and Windsor Castle were turned a patriotic red, white and blue.
Donald Trump has an edge over Joe Biden in the 2024 election with a new poll showing the former president with a 6 percent higher chance of getting another four years in the White House.
Additionally, a large number of Americans think that Trump, 76, is more physically fit and mentally sharp to serve another term over those who feel the same way about Biden.
At 80-years-old, Biden is already the oldest-ever elected president in U.S. history – and would be 82 on his second inauguration if reelected in 2024.
Title 42 is finally coming to an end on Thursday, May 11 and there are at least 10,000 migrants waiting in Mexico to immediately cross the U.S. southern border once the policy is no longer in use.
The public health measure was employed in March 2020 by then-President Donald Trump as a way to quell migration over the southern border at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.
While many saw it as a way to keep COVID-19 from spreading by way of illegal immigration and a way to address the spikes of migrant crossings, immigrant advocates felt it was inhumane for those seeking asylum in the U.S.

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that President Joe Biden invoking the 14th Amendment to address the debt ceiling was a “not good” emergency option that could cause a “constitutional crisis.”
Anchor George Stephanopoulos said, “Of course, there’s always the chance for this negotiation that you don’t reach a deal, and then it comes back to the president. He said on Friday night that he is not ready. The 14th Amendment that it should not be questioned. And the implications would be the United States would continue to issue debt, saying it is unconstitutional not to. The president says he is not ready to do that, but
Department of Interior Secretary Deb Haaland said the quiet part out loud last week. As the executive of our public lands agency, she does not believe that Americans need jobs because there are already so many jobs available. It’s better to lock up land, and lock down mining because who wants those jobs, when there are so many others?
Before the U.S. Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, Haaland told Sen. Josh Hawley, “Senator, I know that there’s like 1.9 jobs for every American in the country right now. So, I know there’s a lot of jobs,” which was her explanation for canceling cobalt mining permits for Twin Metals Minnesota,
Elon Musk, founder of Tesla Inc. and current owner of Twitter, gave his followers a glimpse into his past on Saturday by telling a story from his youth in an effort to refute claims made by the liberal media that he comes from a privileged background and to discredit his success.
Musk tweeted his response to a post that falsely claimed he was from “a wealthy family but had financial difficulties”.
Musk claimed he did not have a good childhood due to a lack of financial support.
The Street has more details about Musk’s background:
House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY) has some big things ready to drop on Joe Biden.
He’s already sending a message to the Department of Justice telling them not to indict the president’s son until the DOJ sees what the Committee is about to announce. We won’t have to wait long because Comer says they intend to drop some big evidence on Wednesday. He said members have been poring over bank documents, and meeting with former associates and whistleblowers. (Tweet/Video)
Arizona Independent Sen. Kyrsten Sinema attacked the White House on Sunday for doing nothing regarding the border crisis despite having two years to plan for the Title 42 mandate to expire.
The pandemic-era policy, which originally allowed the U.S. to expel certain migrants as a health mandate, is set to expire on Thursday. Even with the policy in place, the Biden administration has faced record levels of illegal border crossing since taking office in Jan. 2021.
"Face the Nation" host Margaret Brennan spoke with Sinema on the border crisis as well as her proposed bill to continue a similar policy
COLUMBIA, S.C.—LaJoia Broughton, a 41-year-old small-business owner, considers herself a fan of President Joe Biden.
He’s provided opportunities for Black-owned business while bringing integrity to the White House, she said. Her decision for 2024 is not in doubt.
“Biden has proven himself in the last few years, and I’ll be voting for him in the next election,” said Broughton, (Snip)
Destiny Humphreys is less enthusiastic. The 22-year-old senior at South Carolina State University, the state’s only public historically Black college or university, or HBCU, said she’s disappointed in the president, feeling his accomplishments have so far not lived up to his promises.
NEW YORK— Former President Donald Trump rejected his last chance Sunday to testify at a civil trial where a longtime advice columnist has accused him of raping her in a luxury department store dressing room in 1996.
Trump, a Republican candidate for president in 2024, was given until 5 p.m. Sunday by U.S. District Judge Lewis A. Kaplan to file a request to testify. Nothing was filed.
It was not a surprise. Trump has not shown up once during the two-week Manhattan trial where writer E. Jean Carroll testified for several days, repeating claims she first made publicly in a 2019 memoir. She is seeking compensatory and punitive damages totaling
ox News demanded that Dominion Voting Systems conduct an internal investigation to determine whether it was responsible for the leak of damning text messages sent by former anchor Tucker Carlson.
Recently, Fox wrote Dominion saying evidence documents it provided to the company during recent litigation had been 'disclosed to media organizations and published for mass consumption.'
Fox asked Dominion to launch an internal probe to 'investigate and confirm that you are not the source of these improper disclosures.' The outlet wrote that if Dominion were behind the leak, it would violate 'the text and spirit of the parties agreement,'

Activists on Saturday demanded that the state of California pay millions of dollars to each Black resident in reparations as a way to make amends for slavery and subsequent discrimination, dismissing the mammoth proposals from California's reparations task force as too little. The demands were made at a highly explosive official meeting of the task force, which was created by state legislation signed by Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom in 2020. The committee was hearing comments from the public as it considers final recommendations to submit to the California Legislature, which will then decide whether to implement the measures and send
DENVER — Denver City Councilwoman Candi CdeBaca is suggesting a new tax on white-owned businesses to fund racial reparations to minority-owned businesses. CdeBaca advocated for race-based taxation, which would almost certainly prompt constitutional challenges, at a Thursday forum before the Greater Metro Denver Ministerial Alliance. (Snip) “Capitalism was built on stolen land, stolen labors, and stolen resources,” said CdeBaca, who identifies as a Democratic Socialist. CdeBaca said a business improvement districts, or BID, could be used to enact a race-based tax on white-owned businesses. “You could be collecting those extra taxes from white-led business all over the city and redistributing

President Joe Biden defended his decision to seek reelection despite his advanced age during an interview with MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle on Friday and claimed he “know[s] more than the vast majority of people.” After Biden praised Vice President Kamala Harris and claimed she hadn’t “gotten the credit she deserves,” Ruhle said, “Critics would say you’re elevating her because they think you wouldn’t serve a full term, and it is fair to say that there’s not a Fortune 500 company in the world looking to hire a CEO in his 80s.” “So why would an 82-year-old Joe Biden be the right
During an interview with MSNBC on Friday aired on Friday’s broadcast of “The 11th Hour,” President Joe Biden claimed that “no one’s ever tied” their budget to raising the debt ceiling and responded to charges that former President Donald Trump was willing to play ball on issues while he won’t by stating that Trump hurt the economy and increased debt, while the economy under the Biden presidency is doing well.
Biden said, “[T]he idea someone, for the first time, is saying, unless you pass this ridiculous budget I have — which is the way I would characterize what the Republican MAGA budget is — unless you pass this budget,

We’ve seen some major media upheaval of late, particularly with the “parting of the ways” between Fox and their biggest star, Tucker Carlson. It’s not clear yet where Carlson is going to land, although as we noted he’s got a good offer out there, and is likely to have a lot more once he’s free of his Fox contract. But one of the people that I can’t imagine a lot of Fox fans would have Fox “parting ways” with is Geraldo Rivera.
He’s more than a little embarrassing with some of the things that he has said. His comment about AR-15s — saying that the AR stood for “automatic rifle” —
The brand partnership between Bud Light and social media influencer Dylan Mulvaney appears to have alienated both conservatives and leftists as members of the latter group criticize the brand for halfheartedly recanting support for the self-described transgender social media star.
Several reports indicate that Anheuser-Busch, the parent company of Bud Light, has hemorrhaged sales after executives partnered with Mulvaney, a man who claims to be a woman and chronicled his purported gender transition on social media. Executives for the beverage firm have offered vague apologies, downplayed the extent of the campaign,

Instead of a tiara, the royal mother-of-three wore a matching Jess Collett x Alexander McQueen Headpiece with silver bullion, crystal and silver thread work three-dimensional leaf embroidery.

President Joe Biden brushed his decision not to attend King Charles III's coronation on Saturday during a softball interview with MSNBC's Stephanie Ruhle by saying: 'I told him I couldn't be there because I have this going on.'
Biden, 80, said that he told the king that he would be in the United Kingdom during the summer during the NATO conference. 'He's a good acquaintance and we've worked together on environmental issues,' the president said of King Charles III.
The president dispatched his wife to represent the US at the celebrations in London.
Jill Biden, the First Lady of the United States, attended King Charles’ Coronation ceremony on behalf of her husband Joe Biden, who had declined the invitation.
During the event, the First Lady was seated at the back of Westminster Abbey with her granddaughter Finnegan Biden, wearing yellow and blue outfits. (Photo) While some noted that their placement was far from the center of proceedings, Jean-Pierre highlighted that Biden and Charles had spoken for around 30 minutes the day before the ceremony.

MSNBC host Stephanie Ruhle previewed her interview with President Joe Biden Friday on MSNBC’s “The Beat,” in which the president accused Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) of having “sold away everything” to the “far, far right.”

Biden responded, “I think he’s an honest man. I think he’s in a position, though. He had to make a deal that was pretty, you know, 15 votes. Fifteen votes where he just about sold away everything that he, that the far, far right.

The California Reparations Task Force formally recommended that the state offer payments of up to $1.2 million to every qualifying Black resident. The task force held a public meeting in Oakland, California, on Saturday and voted on the final set of recommendations to be sent to the state's legislators. The nine-member panel called on the state to offer its Black residents a formal apology in addition to the payments.
"Reparations are not only morally justifiable, but they have the potential to address long-standing racial disparities and inequalities," Rep. Barbara Lee, D-Calif., said after attending the meeting.
