There was a moment not long ago when we all got to know Tim Walz—a big, bluff, good-humored guy, born in Nebraska, who became a teacher, a football coach, and the governor of Minnesota. For three months last year, he campaigned on the national ticket with Kamala Harris. As late as Election Day, Walz was convinced that he and Harris were headed to the White House. He was going to be the Vice-President of the United States, living at the Naval Observatory, one heartbeat away from the Presidency.

LONDON — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has arrived at a London summit of European leaders to discuss the war in his country, two days after talks broke down in dramatic fashion at the White House with U.S. President Donald Trump. Trump blasted Zelenskyy for not being grateful enough for U.S. support. Zelenskyy arrived after several of his peers, including French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk, Italian Premier Giorgia Meloni, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen.

Everyone knew yesterday’s meeting between President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was going to be high-stakes, with Kyiv’s survival hanging in the balance. What nobody expected was the diplomatic disaster for Ukraine that unfolded, with the two presidents descending into a yelling match on international television that may have done more damage than any battlefield defeat at Russia’s hands so far. (Snip) Wrong. Instead, Zelensky demonstrated the diplomatic skills of a first-year intern thrown into high-stakes negotiations. From the moment he walked into the White House, his casual attire caught Trump’s attention. During the now-infamous meeting, all seemed
One year after California introduced a first-of-its-kind $20 minimum wage for fast-food workers, an increase of up to 70 cents is slated for a vote. California's Fast Food Council, comprised of fast-food workers, restaurant owners and state officials, approved a motion Wednesday to consider a cost-of-living-adjustment at an upcoming meeting. (Snip) Workers and labor advocates said the increase was needed to address rising costs of living in one of the country's most expensive states to live. Veronica Gonzales, a fast-food worker, spoke remotely from a room full of workers organized under the California Fast Food Workers Union’s San Jose chapter.
SAN FRANCISCO — Democrats have reportedly begun sounding out potential successors to Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi amid rumors that the long-serving Bay Area congresswoman may step down at the end of her term. The San Francisco Standard, citing sources with knowledge of the matter, is reporting that the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has begun gathering information on potential candidates to replace Pelosi.

ST. PAUL, Minn. — Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz won’t seek Minnesota’s open U.S. Senate seat next year and is instead considering a run for a third term as governor, the Democrat’s spokesman announced Wednesday. “He loves his job as governor,” Walz’s spokesman Teddy Tschann said in a written statement. The former vice presidential candidate announced his decision nearly two weeks after U.S. Sen. Tina Smith, a Democrat, announced she would not seek reelection in 2026. Walz was among a flurry of those from both major political parties who then began testing the waters for the state’s first open Senate race

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. — Some believe the Democratic Party’s next savior is living here, huddled with family, in the relative obscurity of a small city on the shores of Lake Michigan. Pete Buttigieg has yet to decide if that’s a responsibility he wants. For now, Buttigieg, the 43-year-old former U.S. transportation secretary, is discussing his future with party officials, labor leaders and top strategists. He must decide soon whether he wants to return to the national spotlight as a candidate in Michigan’s U.S. Senate race or step aside to instead seek a much bigger role as his party’s next presidential
A stunning new Harvard-Harris poll conducted this month found that President Donald Trump’s approval rating is 9 points above water. According to the survey of 2,443 registered voters, 52% of the electorate approves of Trump’s performance in office thus far — with 33% indicating they “strongly approve” and another 19% saying they somewhat approve. Forty-three percent, meanwhile, say they disapprove of Trump, with 32% strongly disapproving and 11% somewhat disapproving. What’s more is that Trump is performing well with certain key constituencies he has struggled with at various other points in his political career. More independents (45%-44%), women (47%-45%), Hispanics
Democrats are anxious to rebuild their party on the heels of President Trump’s victory in November. But they have a major problem as they try to refashion their brand: The money isn’t there. Democratic donors — from bundlers to small dollar donors — say they are still angry about the election results and uninspired by anything their side has put forward since then. (Snip) Much of the consternation among the donor community stems from the unprecedented 2024 election cycle, where many felt misled by the party and former President Biden’s reelection campaign. Until the Democratic debate in June, donors and

Jane Fonda is getting on her soapbox at the SAG Awards. The SAG-nominated actress was recognized for her decadeslong career with the Lifetime Achievement Award at Sunday's ceremony. Fonda was presented with the honor by fellow actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus. (Snip) Fonda's fiery speech couldn't even be derailed by a malfunction in the SAG Awards teleprompter. "I can conjure up voices," she joked. The actress also took a shot at President Donald Trump's attack on diversity, equity and inclusion while discussing the importance of empathy in acting. Fonda briefly referenced Sebastian Stan's portrayal of Trump in the 2024 biopic "The Apprentice."

China is reportedly working on a massive nuclear powered aircraft carrier to rival or potentially surpass the United States’ largest carrier.
Satellite imagery studied by analysts speaking with NBC News revealed that the Chinese Navy is working on a new ship which will allow fighter jets to be launched from four different areas of the flight deck, which is unlike anything in the current Chinese fleet.

On his Fox News show “Life, Liberty, and Levin,” Mark Levin had a compelling discussion with Attorney General Pam Bondi about one of the most scandalous yet suspiciously opaque cases in modern history—the Jeffrey Epstein files.

Instead, what we got was a rehash of information already widely known.
Corrupt Obama Judge Amy Berman Jackson ruled in favor of Hampton Dellinger on Saturday and entered a judgment declaring his firing illegal.
President Trump fired Hampton Dellinger, Special Counsel of the Office of Special Counsel (not to be confused with a special counsel hired as a federal prosecutor) a few weeks ago.
However, shortly after the firing, Judge Jackson sided with Hampton Dellinger, issued an administrative stay, and allowed him to keep his job.
Not unexpectedly, U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson has ruled that unelected bureaucrat, Hampton Dellinger, the U.S. Office of Special Counsel head has more unilateral power within the executive branch of government than President Donald Trump. [RULING pdf HERE]This ruling stems from the same mindset as former AG Bill Barr, former FBI Director James Comey, former Deputy AG Sally Yates, former IC Inspector General Michael Atkinson, and the entire organization of professional Lawfare activists that includes Mary McCord, Andrew Weissmann and Norm Eisen. The collective belief is that in the modern “continuity of government” framework, the bureaucracy of government controls things, not the elected and plenary President.

DEI Universities Defy Trump
16 replies
Across America, universities are openly defying President Trump’s Executive Order 14151, issued in January 2025, which aimed to end the radical and wasteful DEI bureaucracy infecting institutions nationwide. The order mandates merit-based practices and the termination of DEI initiatives in federal agencies and contractors. Despite this, many universities continue to reinforce their ideological grip on academia, prioritizing DEI over federal law.
