MMA fighter Jon 'Bones' Jones sent fans into a frenzy as he presented his UFC championship belt to Donald Trump. The heavyweight fighter bowed down to the president-elect moments after his win over Stipe Miocic at Madison Square Garden. Trump had been expected at 'The World's Most Famous Arena,' where he recently held a blockbuster campaign rally ahead of his November 5 electoral victory. Jones admitted the president-elect's presence in the crowd helped turn up the heat ahead of the clash. 'The nerves you added to this event,' he laughed as the two chatted cageside. 'I was so nervous. I'm glad I impressed you.' Moments before, the champion had handed over

It’s a Brit newspaper, #1. They’re forced to bow down on occasion and don’t understand that Americans bow to no one. (Except 0bama bowing to the Muslims which pretty much convinced me that he’s not an American.)

Daily Mail of course. He didn't bow down, he squatted down to talk to Trump. I'm wondering at the level of intelligence at Daily Mail.

After a decade of assuring their viewers Donald Trump is “Hitler,” Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski announced Monday that they have already goose-stepped to Mar-a-Lago to kiss Orange Hitler’s ring. The satisfaction this must have given President-elect Trump must rival only the satisfaction of his triumphant reelection. Because a Vichy needle is not easy to thread, the married quislings read their bombshell news from a carefully worded statement and rationalized it this way…“We didn’t see eye-to-eye on a lot of issues, and we told him so. What we did agree on was to restart communications,” said the very same people

Business is booming at a historic New York City bakery after Whoopi Goldberg claimed it refused to fill her order due to her political views, which the owner has vehemently denied. On ABC’s the View last week, Goldberg accused an unnamed bakery of declining to deliver an order of “Charlotte Russe” desserts for her birthday, but received them anyway after sending someone else to pick them up: (X Video) “My birthday dessert today was one of my mom’s favorites from when she was a kid, she talked about these all the time, they’re called Charlotte Russe.

It’s high time to shatter the myth of Nancy Pelosi as a master strategist. Nobody deserves more blame than the ridiculously self-titled “speaker emerita” for the Democrats’ $1 billion electoral collapse. Under her ruthless leadership, her party lost the White House, the House, the Senate and the popular vote. You can’t say that enough. Voters rejected the Dems coast to coast, even in Pelosi’s deepest-blue home city of San Francisco, which saw a 7-point swing to Donald Trump. She’s the only speaker in history to have lost control of the House twice. She’s finished.

Donald Trump Jr. claimed Sunday that the United States’ recent aid to Ukraine is a bid by the Biden Administration to start “World War 3” before his father Donald Trump takes office in January. President Joe Biden, 81, authorized the Ukrainian military to use American-supplied long-range missiles to strike targets inside of Russia on Monday, a stark departure from his previous approaches that have aimed to de-escalate the war. (Photo) Trump Jr., 46, tweeted that the “military-industrial complex” is trying to undermine his dad before he takes office by pushing the war further into chaos. “The Military Industrial Complex seems to want to make sure they get World War 3 going

President-elect Donald Trump is calling to 'fully investigate' the Iowa pollster who predicted him losing in heavily red state just days before November's election. The Des Moines Register/Mediacom survey conducted by Ann Selzer of Selzer & Company showed Harris at 47 percent support to Trump's 44 percent. Iowa had gone red for Trump in the last two election cycles after twice voting for Democratic President Barack Obama - and had not been considered to be a battleground state in 2024.

Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign shelled out nearly $2.5 million to Oprah Winfrey’s production company for the celeb-packed town hall it hosted — more than double the initial estimate reported. It was originally surmised that Winfrey’s company Harpo Productions had been paid around $1 million for the talk show legend’s September town hall with Harris, but a new report shows that the dollar amount was greatly underestimated. Two people familiar with the matter told the New York Times that Winfrey’s company had actually been paid closer to $2.5 million — still a mere fraction of Harris’ estimated $1.5 billion campaign spending.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott continues to apply Operation Lone Star resources to the state’s border with Mexico in anticipation of a final Biden-era mass migration event. On the other hand, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker vowed this week to “do everything I can to protect our undocumented immigrants.” “Texas will continue to deploy every tool and strategy available under our historic border mission to protect and defend our state and our nation,” Governor Abbott posted on social media. The governor also pledged to continue the State’s migrant bussing program that delivered nearly 120,000 migrants to the sanctuary cities of New York, Chicago, Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, Denver, and Los Angeles since April 2022.

Grimmway Farms issued the recall as the vegetables “may have been contaminated with Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (E. coli) O121:H19,” which “can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, elderly people, and those with a weakened immune system,” the FDA reposted.

Leftwing “Morning Joe” hosts and vicious Donald Trump critics Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski revealed Monday they had a “personal” sit-down with the president-elect in Florida to “restart communications” — after conceding that voters overwhelmingly made their choice. The MSNBC co-hosts, who have repeatedly bashed the Republican on-air over the years, said they had a face-to-face with Trump at his Mar-a-Lago estate on Friday — their first meeting in seven years — after reaching out in the wake of his election win. “Five years of political warfare has deeply divided Washington and the country.

President Biden has reportedly given Ukraine permission to deploy US-supplied longe-range missiles to attack targets in Russian territory just weeks before President-elect Donald Trump takes office. Ukraine said it plans to take advantage of the policy change within days. The dramatic shift in policy comes as Ukraine has faced setbacks on the battlefield and after months of requests by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to allow Ukraine’s military to use US weapons to hit Russian military targets far from its border. Trump had pledged that he will end the war once he takes office in January. “As President Trump has said on the campaign trail, he is the only person who

The one person who knew that the Joe Biden presidency was something other than “Obama’s third term” was Barack Obama. If Obama had any illusions about his control over events, he was rudely disabused of them on July 21, 2024. This was the Sunday on which Biden dropped out of the presidential race and endorsed Kamala Harris. The announcements caught Obama flatfooted. Biden had not consulted with his former boss either on his decision to drop out nor on his decision to endorse Harris. At 12:46 p.m. EDT, Biden posted on X his intention to withdraw.

I’m wondering about how much anybody in Washington is is being introspective at all about why there is this kind of opening for disruptors, if not necessarily these individuals.

PITTSBURGH and BETHLEHEM, Pa. — Democratic county officials admit they are breaking the law to overturn Pennsylvania’s Senate election for losing Sen. Bob Casey. “I think we all know that precedent by a court doesn’t matter anymore in this country,” said Bucks County Commissioner Diane Ellis-Marseglia, who voted Thursday to count deficient provisional ballots a Pennsylvania Supreme Court order barred, in which voters did not sign in one of two necessary boxes. “People violate laws any time they want,” Ellis-Marseglia said. “So for me, if I violate this law, it’s because I want a court to pay attention. There’s nothing more important than counting votes.”

President Biden has given the OK to lift restrictions that will allow Ukraine to use U.S.-provided long-range weapons to strike deep into Russian territory, a U.S. official confirmed to CBS News on Sunday. The move is a significant change to U.S. policy in the ongoing Ukraine-Russia conflict. The easing of restrictions would allow Kyiv to use the Army Tactical Missile System, or ATACMS, to hit targets inside Russia. The move also comes as some 10,000 North Korean troops were sent to Kursk near Ukraine's northern border to help Russian forces retake territory. The White House National Security Council declined to
