A group is planning a nationwide economic blackout as a response to the rollback of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives sparked by the federal government. Why It Matters When President Donald Trump reentered office last month, one of his first calls to action was to end several of the DEI initiatives in the federal government. He mandated in an executive order that funds could be frozen for companies that do not comply. He also outlawed any messaging that promotes inclusion-based language. The orders have caused PBS to close its DEI office, while major companies like Amazon, Target and Google

For months, daring bands of thieves linked to South American gangs have been making off with piles of jewelry and cash from the homes of the biggest superstars in sports, targeting the likes of the NFL’s Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce. Sophisticated pillagers have deployed drones and signal jamming devices, sometimes posing as delivery drivers or maintenance workers, to gain access to gated neighborhoods and thwart home security systems, according to warnings issued by the NFL and NBA.

A Tesla dealership in Northern Colorado was roped off by Loveland police on Friday after reports of vandalism. Photos and video taken at the dealership showed several Cybertrucks and other Teslas with red spray paint across the windshields and broken glass in the lot.

ST. PAUL, Minn. — A protest against President Trump's actions is underway on Wednesday afternoon in St. Paul. Demonstrators are marching from St. Paul Technical College near Downtown to the State Capitol.

The demonstration is scheduled to go on until 3 p.m.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth confirmed Tuesday that preliminary recruitment figures for the military show how interest in serving is quickly rising under President Donald Trump. Hegseth revealed that the Army had its best recruitment totals in 12 years in December 2024, the first full month after Trump was re-elected. That was followed by the best recruiting numbers in 15 years as of January 2025, the month in which Trump officially took office. (Snip) The Army now expects to add 10 more basic training units in April across Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri, and Fort Sill, Oklahoma, according to a report from
Demand for new electric vehicles has flatlined in California, new sales figures show, raising questions as to whether automobile manufacturers can meet ambitious state mandates for zero-emission vehicle sales. Aside from Tesla, which sells only EVs, no other major manufacturer will meet the state’s 35% threshold for zero-emission vehicles in the upcoming 2026 model year, said Brian Maas, president of the California New Car Dealers Assn. (Snip) There are potentially severe implications for automakers. Failing to meet the 35% mandate, according to Maas, means either paying penalties of $20,000 for every noncompliant vehicle sold, or restricting gasoline and diesel inventory

Just days after being sworn in as Donald Trump’s secretary of homeland security, Kristi Noem, well coiffed and clad in tactical gear, popped up in New York City before dawn with a message for Americans – and her boss, the US president. “Live this AM from NYC. I’m on it,” Noem wrote on X, the first in a series of social media posts documenting her ride-along with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) agents and officers from other federal agencies as they conducted a raid at a residential building in the Bronx on Tuesday. Hours later, in a piece-to-camera video, she
WASHINGTON — As the Democratic National Committee prepares to elect a new chair, its departing leader says Democrats should have stuck with Joe Biden in the 2024 race. In an interview with The Associated Press, Jaime Harrison reflected on why his party lost to Donald Trump and what might have happened had then-Vice President Kamala Harris had more time to campaign after Biden ended his reelection bid following a disastrous debate performance. He also offered advice to his eventual successor, who will be chosen Saturday. The next DNC chair, Harrison said, needs to insist that the party not be a ''rubber
WASHINGTON - The number of Americans filing new applications for unemployment benefits fell more than expected last week, pointing to low layoffs though job opportunities are becoming scarce for those who are out of work. Initial claims for state unemployment benefits dropped 16,000 to a seasonally adjusted 207,000 for the week ended Jan. 25, the Labor Department said on Thursday. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast 220,000 claims for the latest week.

WASHINGTON — One of three liberals on a Supreme Court dominated by conservatives, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson said she has found an outlet for the frustration that can result from being in the minority on the nation’s highest court: boxing. “I take boxing lessons,” Jackson said Wednesday in an interview with The Associated Press at the Supreme Court. “And I think that helps you to really get out any frustrations.” There have been more than a few dissents for the first Black woman on the Supreme Court, including the end of affirmative action in college admissions and a grant of
WASHINGTON - The U.S. Senate on Wednesday voted 56-42 to confirm former Republican Congressman Lee Zeldin to lead the Environmental Protection Agency, tasked with rolling back climate rules from former President Joe Biden that were aimed at slashing emissions from vehicles, power plants and factories. President Donald Trump picked Zeldin, 44, to lead EPA's deregulation efforts, lifting hurdles on oil and gas drilling and reversing course on the Biden administration's emissions rules aimed at spurring more electric vehicle use. Three Democrats voted to back the former New York representative, Arizona Senators Mark Kelly and Ruben Gallego, as well as Pennsylvania Senator

On Sunday, a man of the cloth used the pulpit to issue a sick call of violence against his fellow man.
Dr. Steve Caudle, a pastor at Greater Second Missionary Baptist Church in Chattanooga, Tennessee, gave his weekly sermon to congregants who gathered to worship God. But Caudle had a few other things on his mind beyond spreading the Gospel.
After a brief talk regarding the Super Bowl matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles, Caudle then turned his attention to his scripture lesson called “The Violent Kingdom.” He decided to use the Scripture of Matthew to blast the Trump Administration and DOGE.
Democratic Connecticut state Sen. Martin Looney proposed a bill that would require Connecticut movie theaters to publish a film’s actual start time.
Moviegoers know that times listed on movie tickets indicate when the previews begin, not the actual movie.
If passed, S.B. 797 would require theaters to publish both times on tickets.
STUTTGART, Germany — Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Monday while on a C-17 aircraft en route to Germany signed a memorandum renaming “Fort Liberty” back to “Fort Bragg” — the original name of the storied military base in North Carolina.
In a short video posted on X of him signing the memo, he said, “There it is. Pursuant to the authority of the Secretary of Defense, Title 10, United States Code § 113, I direct the Army to change the name of Fort Liberty, North Carolina, to Fort Bragg, North Carolina. That’s right — Bragg is back!'” (X Video) However, the name change now honors Army Private First Class
During his campaign, Donald Trump promised to use Elon Musk to improve government efficiency, partly by ending the incredible graft and corruption permeating the bureaucracy. Since Trump’s inauguration, Musk and his youthful four-man crew, using the power of AI, have identified a host of fundamental problems in the Treasury Dept. As Musk explained: (X) To be clear, what the @DOGE team and @USTreasury have jointly agreed makes sense is the following:
- Require that all outgoing government payments have a payment categorization code, which is necessary in order to pass financial audits. This is frequently left blank, making audits almost impossible.
Eagles fans in Philadelphia were in true form following their team’s 40-22 win over the Chiefs to win Super Bowl 2025.
Hundreds of fans flocked to the city’s Broad Street to celebrate the franchise’s second Super Bowl title.
After the city decided to not grease the poles in the area, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer, some decided to climb them, including one who sat atop a traffic light on the corner of Broad Street and Pine Street. (Videos)
Fans shot fireworks into the air and popped champagne. Others joined together to jump on top of and destroy a police van.
Some found a garbage truck to get on top of.
A contract for a pricey museum exhibit for Dr. Anthony Fauci has been canceled as the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) exposes rampant waste.
DOGE, which is led by Elon Musk, made the announcement in a social media post on Friday, explaining that officials with the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) made swift work of canceling millions of dollars’ worth of contracts, Fox News reported Sunday. DOGE also included details about the Fauci exhibit. “In the past 48 hours, HHS canceled 62 contract worth $182 million. These contracts were entirely for administrative expenses – none touched any healthcare programs. This included terminating a $168,000 contract
Considering they just spectacularly lost a major defamation suit, CNN has seemed remarkably unconcerned about throwing around wild accusations. On Monday’s episode of Inside Politics With Dana Bash, Bash seemingly suggested that billionaire Elon Musk had made his money through illegal means, though she never provided evidence. She also lashed out at President Trump’s voters, calling them “the problem.”
Bash summed up what has always been CNN’s transparent view of Trump when she said that what we “cannot lose sight of,” is that the President had a “history” of “being litigious, slowing things down
Elon Musk reported early Monday morning that FEMA sent $59 million just last week to luxury hotels in New York City to house illegal migrants.
According to Musk, sending this money to these high-end hotels violated the law. This directly interferes with President Trump’s executive order.
And why is FEMA paying for illegal alien housing when they ignore Americans suffering and living in tents in places like North Carolina?
FEMA funds are meant for American disaster relief and not to fund Joe Biden’s invasion.
Interference in another country's internal affairs?
Sure, if you're the Vatican, or more specifically, the Vatican's big umbrella NGO of NGOs known as Caritas, whose U.S. arms include Catholic Charities and Catholic Relief Services.
According to the Associated Press:
VATICAN CITY -- The Vatican's charity said Monday that U.S. plans to gut USAID were “reckless” and could kill millions, while Pope Francis’ point man on development urged the Trump administration to remember Christian principles about caring for others.
Cardinal Michael Czerny, a Czech-born Canadian Jesuit, is one of the cardinals most closely associated with Francis’ pontificate and heads the Vatican office responsible for migrants, the environment, the church’s Caritas Internationalis charity and development.
The FBI has uncovered 2,400 new records about President John F. Kennedy’s assassination following President Trump’s order to release the secret files, according to reports.

The White House learned about the never-before-reviewed documents on Friday as the Office of the Director of National Intelligence presented its plan to disclose the remaining documents.

“Sometimes the Devil will act so ugly that you have no other choice but to get violent and fight."
Those are the chilling words of a senior pastor at Greater Second Missionary Baptist Church of Chattanooga, Tennessee, during a Sunday School morning service. The pastor, Reverend Dr. Steve A. Caudle, likened Elon Musk, President Donald Trump's head of the new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), to the Devil, as he spewed lie after lie about DOGE — and appeared to urge people to "get violent and fight." How pastoral. (X Video)
