Democratic U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown made clear during a farewell speech Tuesday that he does not plan to abandon his career-long fight for American workers despite suffering a bitter defeat last month in Ohio, where it’s become nearly impossible for his party to win statewide elections. “This is my last speech on the floor this year, but it is not, I promise you, the last time you will hear from me,” [Snip] The state’s political observers are already floating his name as a possible contender for the Senate seat being vacated by Republican JD Vance, the vice president-elect, or for the governorship.

The Democrat Trump-Musk Feud Strategy
8 replies
It has been a triumphant phase for the MAGA movement. [Snip] The swamp dwellers are now in a quandary. [Snip] So what do they do? They resort to petty ploys. [Snip] This divide-and-rule tactic has been used throughout history to overcome seemingly invincible enemies. [Snip] The main goal is to cause a massive feud which will lead to Musk's sacking and the dismantling of DOGE. Trump, Musk, and the rest must remember that they thoroughly vanquished the Democrats last month. The Democrats have nothing to offer but lies, petty ploys, and hoaxes.

Elite universities have been so thoroughly captured by the left that they are no longer capable of reforming themselves to offer an ideologically balanced and intellectually diverse education. [Snip] If universities are determined to have faculty that are ideological monoliths, they can find students and private donors who are willing to indulge this indoctrination and pay for it themselves. These institutions are not entitled to a dime of taxpayer money,...if these universities are unable to survive on their own. New universities will arise, and others that can meet the Sodom and Gomorrah test will reform themselves to offer an intellectually diverse and ideologically balanced education.
Hamilton County, situated just north of Indianapolis, has been home to a sports megaplex for the past decade that fundamentally changed not only a tiny rural town but also a cultural mindset in the region. [Snip] As youth sports continue to increase, churches are seeing a decrease in members and Sunday worshippers. [Snip] Practices, games, and tournaments are eating up a large portion of a family’s time together. And when stressed and overbooked families are looking at their weekly schedules, it is often Sunday worship and midweek church activities that don’t make the cut.

trip to remain in D.C. after Biden decline bombshell 19 replies
The Vice President’s office said Harris would not travel to California on Thursday as planned and would instead remain in the capital. [Snip] The sudden jettisoning of Harris’ holiday prompted widespread speculation on social media that Biden could be in poor health. Her announcement came hours after a bombshell Wall Street Journal investigation exposed how frail the president has been throughout the last four years. [Snip] Harris staying in Washington is likely due to the uncertainty of whether the House of Representatives can pass a stopgap continuing resolution bill to fund the government.
President-elect Donald Trump filed an amicus brief late Thursday in support of a legal effort by Texas and Missouri to "immediately" stop the Biden administration’s sale of border wall materials, saying the action is "possibly criminal." [Snip] "The Court should issue an order directing the Defendants to immediately stop any ongoing sale of border-barrier materials to private parties pending the Court’s review of Defendant’s conduct, and the Court should swiftly conduct a searching examination of the Government’s conduct, by formal discovery if necessary, to examine the Government’s compliance with the law, the Constitution, and the Court’s injunction," Trump’s amicus brief states.

Derek Chauvin chance to examine George
Floyd's heart 11 replies
Federal prosecutors in Minnesota are asking a judge to reconsider his decision to allow former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin to re-examine George Floyd's heart as part of an appeal after he was convicted of violating Floyd's civil rights. [Snip] Magnuson, however, said the evidence would help Chauvin's defense investigate information from Dr. William Schaetzel, who contacted Chauvin's original trial lawyer, Eric Nelson, and argued that Floyd died of a specific type of heart attack. Chauvin's new legal team said Nelson never told his client about the doctor's theory, and therefore, no testing was done to try and confirm it.
Officials in Texas say they are preparing to buy and store border wall materials being auctioned off by the federal government and keep them in place until the Trump administration takes office in January. Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick reacted to reports of continued auctions of border wall materials that have been left near the border after the sudden stop of border wall construction in 2021. "I will bid on all of that wall, and we will buy it in Texas, and we will give it to Donald Trump," Patrick said on "The Ingraham Angle." "I’ve got a billion dollars in my pocket to do it," he said.

Many divulged to DailyMail.com that there are worries she is a liability for Don Jr. and the president-elect who will just cause a 'headache' for the administration.

It has been reported that Nancy Pelosi was refused Holy Communion at the U.S. Capitol yesterday. Archbishop Timothy Broglio reportedly refused Pelosi, a self-described Catholic who advocates for abortion, the Sacrament after a Mass he celebrated in the Capitol on December 12 in honor of Our Lady of Guadalupe, the patron saint of the Americas. [Snip] However, as CNA reported, “Broglio agreed to meet with Pelosi but did not give her Communion.” [Snip] “Michelle Gress, executive director at the office of government relations at the USCCB, told CNA that Broglio declined Pelosi’s request as the Mass had already ended and they ‘didn’t consecrate extra Hosts,” the outlet reported.
The Great Drone Scam

Let me begin with a phrase I never used to start a story in 45 years as a TV reporter: “I may be wrong.” This entire piece may be wrong, but those 45 years on the air and 2000+ hours as a pilot tell me I’m right. The MSM floods their newscasts with reports of drone-terrified citizens... [Snip] Not everyone closes their curtains...word got out that Mrs. Sushbaum in 7B puts on a great show every night. [Snip] Maybe it is Martians, Russians, Iranians, or Lord knows who. If it is, they sure traveled a long way to see Mrs. Sushbaum in her birthday suit.

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton claimed that Republicans were “taking orders from the world’s richest man,” Elon Musk, regarding a failed continuing resolution (CR).
In a post on X, Clinton accused Republicans of being “on course to shut down the government over the holidays.” “If you’re just catching up: the Republican Party, taking orders from the world’s richest man, is on course to shut down the government over the holidays, stopping paychecks for our troops and nutrition benefits for low-income families just in time for Christmas,” Clinton wrote in her post.
CBS News’ Lesley Stahl is having a bit of heartburn after the 2024 election. Donald Trump is coming back. The GOP retained control of Congress. The media establishment was once again skinned alive by the tens of millions of Americans who rightly rejected, ignored, or outright dismissed their shoddy narratives against Trump and the ones manufactured to prop up Vice President Kamala Harris. So, it’s somewhat laughable that she fears legacy media is dead.
Stahl and The Wall Street Journal’s Peggy Noonan spoke about the latter’s latest book at the 92NY Center’s Recanati-Kaplan Talks in late November. Stahl relayed a
Republicans scored a significant victory after successfully passing a spending bill on Friday to avert a looming government shutdown with just 12 hours to spare. The new 118-page bill, which overcame partisan tensions, reflects a strategic win for GOP lawmakers after 38 Republicans voted against the Trump-backed bill on Thursday. After negotiating, lawmakers agreed to trim the funding bill to just under 600 pages after the initial draft was more than 1,300 pages and included unnecessary spending, such as a pay increase for Congress members.
Newscaster Lesley Stahl claims she “doesn’t know what to do” about the embarrassing demise of the legacy media.
She was lamenting to her colleague, Peggy Noonan, that “we are at the point where even the president,” then corrected herself saying, “Elon Musk,” asserted that legacy media is dead. She appeared extremely worried, spilling her deepest concerns, in front of an empathetic audience gathered at the 92nd St. YMCA studio in New York.
It was as if Stahl was having an out-of-body experience, where she failed to factor in herself, in accounting for the reason why audiences were abandoning network news in droves.
The current state of the United States Congress is nowhere near what the Founding Fathers had in mind. [snip] The newspaper discovered that Rep. Granger was now the resident of a local memory care and assisted living home and had been for some time after she was found confused and wandering around her neighborhood. Assistant Executive Director for the memory care/assisted living home, Taylor Manzeil, confirmed that Granger was a resident, saying, "This is her home."
A Maryland woman dubbed the "Black Widow" for murdering two husbands and a boyfriend for insurance money is now free after President Joe Biden commuted her 40-year prison sentence, undercutting the White House's claim that Biden released only "non-violent" offenders in a clemency bonanza last week.
Among the 1,500 federal convicts granted clemency was Josephine Virginia Gray, who was sentenced to 40 years in prison in 2002 for insurance fraud schemes connected to the murders of three men between 1974 and 1996. Gray was resentenced to the same amount of time again in 2006 following a series of appeals.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre faced tough questions from reporters on Friday regarding outgoing President Joe Biden’s noticeable absence during his final days in office, despite numerous pressing issues unfolding in Washington. This comes amid speculation that Biden is “quiet quitting” and failing to lead his party to the finish line.
The press briefing opened with a question on the minds of many Americans wondering where Biden has been amid the ongoing spending bill battle that needs to be passed in order to avoid a government shutdown.
In a Senate chamber that has seen more backroom deals and spineless compromises than bold conservative action, Mitch McConnell, the epitome of a RINO, took to the podium to deliver his final speech as Senate Republican Leader.
The Kentucky senator’s comments, filled with self-praise and subtle digs at his conservative critics, summed up a career marked by giving in to opposition.
McConnell, who has held the reins of Senate GOP leadership since 2007, boasted about his so-called “accomplishments,” which often came at the expense of the conservative values he was elected to uphold.
What McConnell sees as “making a difference,” many conservatives recognize as selling out.
A so-called TikTok ‘prankster’ known for wreaking havoc on the public for social media views, was arrested for spraying poison all over food in a Mesa, Arizona, Walmart.
The suspect, 27-year-old Charles Smith, was stupid enough to video his face while committing the crime. He then uploaded the video of himself committing the felony to social media.
According to court documents, Smith went back inside Walmart 10 minutes after he committed the crime and “attempted to collect the items he sprayed.”
Smith wheeled some of the poisoned items to the back of Walmart.
A California teen and her mom claim they were attacked in a crowded mall parking lot and robbed of $3,000 as they clashed with another group over a parking spot amid the holiday shopping rush.
The dispute happened when Natalie Martinez, 19, and her mother, Patricia Cupa went to the Citadel Outlets in Commerce, Ca. to return a sweater at one of the stores on Wednesday, according to KTLA.
The duo had made it to the packed shopping center just after 5 p.m. and had trouble finding a parking spot, forcing them to drive around the lot before the teen eventually found an open space.
Delaware County prosecutors announced charges Thursday against Jennifer Hill, a Collingdale woman accused of attempting to register dead and fake voters.
Hill, a paid canvasser for the New Pennsylvania Project—a self-proclaimed ‘nonpartisan’ group launched in 2021—now faces 40 criminal counts, including four felony charges of forgery.
Prosecutors allege Hill submitted more than 300 voter registration forms through a state-provided app, with 129 of them deemed invalid. Among her fraudulent attempts, Hill reportedly tried to register three deceased individuals, including her own father, and even fabricated a voter using her grandmother’s name but with an altered birthdate, The Philadelphia Inquirer reported.
A foreign student at George Mason University in Virginia has been arrested for plotting a terror attack on the Israeli consulate in New York.
Abdullah Ezzeldin Taha Mohamed Hassan, a freshman at George Mason University, faces one count of demonstrating how to manufacture an explosive with intent to murder internationally protected persons, which carries a maximum possible sentence of 20 years. Prosecutors may add other charges as the investigation proceeds. The university has banned him from campus.

Sherrod Brown is a pro-union senator, ranked among the chamber’s most liberal members. He criticized the perception of President Trump’s movement being called “populist” by saying, “True populism lifts all people. True populism doesn’t tear others down.

True populism is essentially about the dignity of work, putting workers at the center of all we should be doing.” Reality Check: President Trump looks to Make America Great Again FOR ALL Americans. “The Democrat Party is undermining this country.
