MSNBC’s Joy Reid and Stephanie Ruhle will reportedly need to take a pay cut if they want to remain in their anchor chairs as the struggling cable network continues to cut costs. The left-leaning news channel — which recently gave star anchor Rachel Maddow a $5 million-a-year haircut from her annual $30 million haul — has been negotiating with Reid and Ruhle on new deals at reduced salaries, according to the Ankler newsletter. The controversial Reid is believed to be earning $3 million a year to host her nightly 8 p.m. show, “The ReidOut,” according to the Washington Free Beacon. Reid, who has been with the network since 2011 and in primetime

Well over a year out from her next election, Gov. Kathy Hochul is looking desperate — and hapless.
The latest sign: She’s sent in another 250 National Guard to “help keep the subway safe” for Christmas shopping season and maybe beyond.
Yet the guardsmen legally can’t do most law enforcement, just check bags.
They’re not getting that raving madman off the platform, sorry.
But the 1,000 total Guard help provide a “sense of security,” the gov insists. Merry Christmas!
At least that’s not as insulting as her claim that she’s saving us money by imposing congestion-pricing tolls of “only” $9 instead of the $15 originally planned.

The man accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson is reportedly being showered with attention from admirers.
During his time at Huntingdon State Correctional Institute in Pennsylvania, 26-year-old Luigi Mangione apparently got over 140 messages from people that included his so-called “groupies,” the New York Post reported on Saturday.
The Post said that according to corrections officials, the messages included emails, physical letters, and 163 deposits into an account so he could buy commissary items: (X) Mangione is accused of fatally shooting Thompson on December 4 outside the Hilton Hotel in Midtown Manhattan, per Breitbart News.
The Post described some of the reported messages sent to the alleged killer:

using new detection tool, but FAA lacks resources 7 replies
As drone sightings over New Jersey continue to raise questions, a new tool could bring answers about the source of these flying vehicles — if the government could get it off the ground.
Earlier this year, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) began requiring all unmanned aircraft systems to be equipped with Remote ID technology, which makes every equipped drone uniquely identifiable to authorities, like a license plate on a car.
The FAA announced that it would provide a database that could be accessed by local law enforcement, but nearly one year later, local authorities still can't get into it themselves.
President-elect Donald Trump took an unprecedented step by filing an amicus brief in a legal battle involving outgoing President Joe Biden’s defiant decision to sell off border wall materials initially designated to secure the U.S.-Mexico border wall. Trump, who made the construction of the border wall a cornerstone of his first presidency, sharply criticized the Biden Administration's "fire sale" of such materials, suggesting the action is "possibly criminal." Late Thursday, Trump took legal matters to a Texas court to urge a federal judge to immediately halt the ongoing sale of border-barrier materials until a thorough investigation of the Biden Administration’s conduct regarding the border wall is complete.
Cenk Uygur, the main host of the far left political talk show the ‘Young Turks’ attended an event hosted by the conservative group Turning Point USA in Arizona this week and was welcomed warmly by the crowd.
In his opening remarks, Uygur praised the attendees, saying that people on the right are more welcoming than Democrats. He then suggested that this is one of the reasons why Trump and MAGA won the popular vote in November.
He also said that people need to try to work together more, especially when they find they’re in agreement on a particular issue.
Mediaite provides a partial transcript of Uygur’s remarks:

Red Sea in 'friendly fire' incident, US

Navy pilots flying over the red sea were shot down in an apparent 'friendly fire' incident, the US military said.
The US military was conducting airstrikes targeting Yemen's Houthi rebels and mistakenly hit two US Navy pilots.
Both were recovered alive, with one suffering minor injuries. 'The guided missile cruiser USS Gettysburg, which is part of the USS Harry S. Truman Carrier Strike Group mistakenly fired on and hit the F/A-18, which was flying off the USS Harry S. Truman,' Central Command said in a statement.
Central Command did not elaborate on their mission.
Less than a year ago, people were still speculating about who Donald Trump would pick to be his running mate. When he finally announced that it was JD Vance, people on the right were excited or at least enthusiastic to learn more about the Ohio senator.
Over the summer, the Kamala Harris campaign tried to brand Vance as ‘weird’ but it didn’t stick, especially as people got to know Kamala’s running mate Tim Walz, who genuinely seemed weird.
Once the VP debate happened, any questions people still had about JD Vance were answered. He came across as a smart, decent man who was worthy of the public’s trust.
Neil Cavuto was forced to leave Fox News because his show was a 'wormhole to another time' before Donald Trump took over the Republican Party.
The anchor, 66, ended his 28-year tenure at the network on Thursday afternoon.
It was rumored Cavuto declined to sign a new contract, which was described as 'a very generous opportunity' by the star on his last show. It is believed, however, that Cavuto may have been the latest cable news anchor to be asked to take less money, after similar reports of CNN and MSNBC talent getting their wages cut have emerged in recent weeks.

On Friday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Fox News @ Night,” former Kamala Harris Campaign Surrogate Lindy Li said she believes that President Joe Biden is burning things down at the urging of First Lady Jill Biden and cited him coming out against stock trading by members of Congress.
Host Kevin Corke asked, “This is from the Daily Mail, this is a piece from Emily [Goodin], very interesting, the headline reads, in part, ‘How Vengeful Jill Biden Is Urging ‘Depressed’ Joe to ‘Burn the Whole Thing Down’ in Their Final Days’, it reads in part, ‘Jill views Democrats on Capitol Hill, the [wider] party, the Obamas, staff inside and outside
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.

Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is not only married to one of the best stock-pickers in the world — turns out she and husband Paul are super savvy real-estate investors as well.
Though sometimes they need a soupçon of help.
The Pelosis own part of the Auberge de Soleil, a tony hotel in California’s swanky Napa Valley, whose rooms command prices as high as $2,000 a night and attract an A-list crowd.
President Joe Biden is considering plans to attempt to sabotage President-elect Donald Trump’s deportation effort, a new report suggests.
According to the New York Times, Biden is eyeing sweeping quasi-amnesty protections for migrants who would otherwise face deportation:
The Biden administration is considering extending protections for hundreds of thousands of immigrants whose status in the United States is set to expire in the first months of the Trump administration, according to U.S. officials and documents viewed by The New York Times. [Emphasis added]
The move would make it harder, though not impossible, for President-elect Donald J. Trump to deport those people.

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
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."
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.
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.

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.
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.
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.
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.

A former CNN host issued a public apology for failing to address outgoing President Joe Biden's very obvious cognitive decline more seriously during his time at the network. Acknowledging the growing concerns surrounding Biden's mental acuity, the ex-anchor admitted to downplaying the signs that have become increasingly evident. The apology comes amid reports that Biden has “quietly quitted” his duties as the POTUS during his final days in the Whtie House.This fuels the ongoing debates about media accountability and reporters' role in holding leaders and politicians accountable for consistent transparency and performance standards regardless of party affiliation.
