President-elect Donald Trump revealed Tuesday that he plans on attending the funeral of former President Jimmy Carter. Trump, 78, told reporters ahead of a New Year’s Eve party at his Mar-a-Lago estate that he was invited to the 39th president’s state funeral in Washington, DC, which is scheduled to take place on Jan. 9. “I do. I’ll be there. We were invited,” Trump said about his plans for the Carter funeral, with his wife Melania standing by his side.

Mr. President, I applaud your doing this even though there wasn't much of Jimmah's presidency that any of us old enough to remember had liked. .

Honorable of Trump but get ready for the ever evil Biden to throw a snide veiled remark his way IF he even gets through the eulogy. The Carters are graceful, I would have to Biden to go to hell.

Honduran President Xiomara Castro has threatened to terminate military cooperation with the United States if President-elect Donald Trump proceeds with his plan for mass deportations of illegal immigrants, including those from Honduras. This ultimatum underscores the glaring hypocrisy of a leader who has failed to address the root causes driving her own citizens to flee her country in the first place. A primary objective of Trump’s mass deportation plan is to remove individuals with criminal records who are residing in the country illegally.

On Monday, Jan. 6, Congress will convene to certify the 2024 reelection of former President Donald Trump. Jan. 6, 2025, marks the fourth anniversary of the Capitol riot that Democrats and their media still falsely portray as an “insurrection.” Hundreds of Trump supporters gathered at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, after Mr. Trump spoke to a crowd. Among other things, he said: “Our country has had enough. We will not take it anymore, and that’s what this is all about. To use a favorite term that all of you people really came up with, we will ‘stop the steal.’” He urged them to protest Congress’ counting of Electoral College ballots.

MSNBC has an ongoing ratings problem and host Lawrence O’Donnell is clearly doing everything he can to make sure it stays that way. During a recent rant on his little-watched program, O’Donnell singled out U.S. veterans, specifically from the Army, as a greater terror threat than the people illegally crossing the southern border. A former CIA officer recently said that more than a thousand al-Qaeda operatives have likely crossed the open border and are now in the United States just waiting to strike but apparently, O’Donnell hasn’t heard that report.

In the final days of his term, President Joe Biden is set to ban new offshore oil and gas developments in some areas of the U.S. coast, a move that would hinder President-elect Donald Trump’s push for more energy production. Bloomberg reported on Thursday that Biden is expected to issue an executive order “within days” that would prevent the sale of drilling rights in certain areas of the outer continental shelf. Biden’s move to further ban offshore drilling would be based on a 1953 law that gives the president the power to permanently stop offshore oil drilling in U.S. waters without explicitly giving presidents the power to revoke

President Biden and his staff are going out guns blazing — all barrels blasting away to do as much damage as possible to America before they go. Just look at the dirty-laundry list Joe (or whoever’s actually making the decisions) has rammed through as his last days tick down. More bans on drilling for oil and gas, even after his war on domestic energy helped cripple America strategically and inflict massive price pain at the pump and elsewhere. Heck, he even moved to squeeze natural-gas exports. That’s as the administration agreed to yet another inane Paris Accord climate goal to drive down US emissions by close to 70% by 2035.

After Shamsud-din Jabbar’s New Orleans attack turned a New Year’s celebration into violent tragedy, the Federal Bureau of Investigation continues to show why it has forfeited the trust of the American people. Jabbar affixed an ISIS flag to the pickup he drove at high speed into a crowd of revelers, killing at least 14 people. Yet the FBI at first refused to call the attack what it plainly was: terrorism. That’s even though it arrested a shocking 10 ISIS would-bes in 2024 alone, thankfully before they were able to carry out any attacks — including a 17-year-old in Arizona. “This is not a terrorist event,”
