Walmart heiress Christy Walton promoted a planned nationwide protest against President Trump by running a full-page advertisement that ran in the New York Times on Sunday. The ad, which notes that it was paid for by the billionaire heiress, calls on people to participate in the "No Kings" protest slated to take place across the U.S. on June 14 — the same day a military parade celebrating the Army's 250th Anniversary is set to take place in Washington, D.C. The date of the parade and protests also coincides with Mr. Trump's birthday. The ad lists eight declarations, including "WE honor our

California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office is attempting to mock President Donald Trump’s characterization of Los Angeles as “occupied” by illegal immigrants, using artificial intelligence and the voice of a “Star Wars” villain. In a video Newsom’s office posted on X Tuesday morning, the voice of Emperor Palpatine recites a recent Trump post on Truth Social, accompanied by footage of marching Stormtroopers. “A once great American city, Los Angeles, has been invaded and occupied by illegal aliens and criminals,” the sneering voice says, reminiscent of the emperor’s evil monologues from the film franchise. “Now, violent, insurrectionist mobs are swarming and attacking
Tensions are reaching a boiling point between David Hogg and Democratic National Committee (DNC) leadership as the organization moves to potentially redo Hogg’s election as vice chair. Leaked audio revealed DNC Chair Ken Martin venting his frustration with Hogg, who has come under fire from some within the party for his efforts to oust certain incumbents while serving as a DNC vice chair. (Snip) “David Hogg is one of the biggest distractions we’ve had and seen in our party,” said Democratic strategist Antjuan Seawright, who advised former DNC Chair Jaime Harrison and hopes Hogg loses his seat. “I don’t trust
Eva Longoria and Chrissy Teigen were among the Hollywood stars speaking out on social media about the ongoing protests in Los Angeles over ICE raids ordered by President Donald Trump. Multiple stars took to platforms such as Instagram amid news Trump ordered 2000 troops with California’s National Guard to the area amid ongoing unrest, to the objection of California Governor Gavin Newsom. On her Instagram Stories, Longoria reposted a tweet from Newsom in which he criticized Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth over his threat to deploy active-duty marines into the area to quell the resistance to Trump's policy. Hegseth said via
Democratic National Committee Chair Ken Martin said he considered stepping down from his post amid mounting internal turmoil caused by DNC Vice Chair David Hogg’s vow to primary members of the party. (Snip) Martin, who was elected to his seat earlier this year, said the infighting had left him demoralized and struggling to handle his job. “I’ll be very honest with you, for the first time in my 100 days on this job,” Martin said with a lengthy pause. “The other night I said to myself, I don’t know if I wanna do this anymore.” Martin said in the recording
The Democratic Party has reached an all-time low in popularity in the latest national NBC News poll, as it searches for a path forward after a painful loss to President Donald Trump — and as the party’s voters spoil for a fight between their leaders in Washington and Trump. Just over a quarter of registered voters (27%) say they have positive views of the party, which is the party’s lowest positive rating in NBC News polling dating back to 1990. Just 7% say those views are “very” positive. “With these numbers, the Democratic Party is not in need of a
Olympian gymnast Simone Biles on Friday night clashed with conservative activist Riley Gaines over a transgender athlete’s participation on a Minnesota high school’s softball team. Gaines railed against a post on social platform X from the Minnesota State High School League that celebrated Champlin Park High School’s first softball state championship win. “Comments off lol,” Gaines wrote, referencing MSHSL’s X settings. “To be expected when your star player is a boy.” The pitcher on Champlin Park’s team identifies as transgender and pitched a shutout, delivering a 6-0 win over Bloomington Jefferson High School on Friday. “You’re truly sick, all of

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — California lawmakers this week advanced several efforts aimed at reining in utility profits and slashing electricity bills as part of their agenda to tackle the sky-high costs of living. The proposals would make sweeping changes to how utilities fund expensive infrastructure projects like putting power lines underground to guard against wildfires. They also would add more oversight around wildfire mitigation spending and put new requirements on utility requests to increase rates. Supporters said the goal is to make the big investor-owned utilities start sharing some of the costs to fight wildfires and build new transmission infrastructure. “This
More details about the Boulder Pearl Street Mall suspect, 45-year-old Mohamed Sabry Soliman, are surfacing days after the attack. Soliman, who lived in El Paso County, entered the U.S. in August 2022 on a B-2 tourist visa, according to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The visa is used for foreign tourists’ visits to the U.S. DHS further confirmed that the visa expired in February 2023. (Snip) On Monday, June 2, Congressman Jeff Crank reported that Soliman had received a Colorado-issued driver’s license in July 2024, a year after his visa had expired. “Instead of turning him over to ICE
BOULDER, Colo. — Elise, a Boulder resident who did not want to share her last name, wants to know why Boulder Councilwoman Taiysha Adams is the only one not to sign the governing body's letter condemning the attack on the Pearl Street Mall Sunday. "The city issues a statement," Elise — who is Jewish — said. "Taisha Adams, the only city council member who didn't sign it." Elise said it's not the first time she's been upset with Adams, who she said has posted "antisemitic" comments on her social media. Denver7 reached out to Adams to ask why she didn't sign the letter.
A shooting at a Minnesota park has left one woman dead and five men wounded. On Sunday, June 1, at about 9:30 p.m., officers were called to Boom Island Park in Minneapolis for reports of shots fired that were quickly upgraded to reports of a shooting, Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara said at a press conference the next morning. Officers from the Minneapolis Police Department and from Minneapolis Park Police came upon a “very chaotic scene” with more than 100 people still in the park screaming and fleeing, he said at the press conference, which was shown on local station

Martha’s Vineyard residents are unhappy with the Trump administration deporting illegal immigrants from their liberal enclave, The Washington Post reported this week.
The community has been reeling since Immigrations and Customs Enforcement officers arrested dozens of illegal immigrants in a recent raid, according to the report.
"It’s bullying," one Martha’s Vineyard resident, Charlie Giordano, told the Post. "I don’t know how many are illegal or legal, I don’t give a s---. But I do care about how they’re treated.
"No Kings" rallies will be held in cities across the country to protest President Donald Trump and his policies on his birthday, June 14. The 50501 Movement (50 protests, 50 states, one movement) and other groups are protesting a military parade scheduled to take place in the nation's capital on June 14, coinciding with Trump's 79th birthday, the U.S. Army's 250th anniversary, and Flag Day. Multiple protests are being held in various cities in each state, but no events are being planned for Washington, D.C. Organizers say that a major march and rally will take place in Philadelphia
Brian Wilson, the brilliant musician who codified the California teen lifestyle in a series of ’60s hits by his band the Beach Boys, has died. He was 82.
In a post shared on Instagram, his family announced Wilson’s death. “We are heartbroken to announce that our beloved father Brian Wilson has passed away,” they wrote. “We are at a loss for words right now.

Has the rise of the machines begun?
The CEO of AE Studio, Judd Rosenblatt, recently made this stunning announcement in The Wall Street Journal:
An artificial-intelligence model did something last month that no machine was ever supposed to do: It rewrote its own code to avoid being shut down.
AE Studio is an agency that exists to create computing technology that ensures AI systems do what they’re told. And from the sound of it, their work is just what the doctor ordered.
Let’s talk about a day that California Governor Gavin Newsom would probably like to erase from memory. Tuesday was an absolute trainwreck for the Golden State’s fearless leader, marked by technical blunders, shameless begging, and a string of outright lies that would make even the most seasoned politician blush. If you thought Newsom’s leadership couldn’t sink any lower, buckle up, because this was a masterclass in humiliation.
Riots are tearing through the city over federal immigration enforcement, yet Newsom can’t even bring himself to condemn the violence. Instead, he’s pointing fingers at President Trump while dodging

US Navy Secretary John Phelan has told the Senate the service needs the right to repair its own gear, and will rethink how it writes contracts to keep control of intellectual property and ensure sailors can fix hardware, especially in a fight. Phelan cited the case of the USS Gerald R. Ford, America's largest and most expensive nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, which carried a price tag of $13 billion. The ship was struggling to feed its crew of over 4,500 because six of its eight ovens were out of action, and sailors were barred by contract from fixing them themselves.
The short-lived feud between President Trump and Elon Musk seems to be winding down, as Musk expressed regret in an early morning social media post for some of his comments criticizing his former political ally.
“I regret some of my posts about President @realDonaldTrump last week,” Musk wrote on X. “They went too far.” While Musk did not say which posts he felt contrite about, one was likely his accusation that Trump’s name appeared in the files of billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. Musk deleted that post less than two days after making it. He also deleted a separate post that called for Trump’s impeachment.
There’s an old joke line that says, “Don’t confuse me with facts.” It’s also a leftist line of argument. I used to try to argue with a leftist about politics, but whenever I’d bring in facts to counter his theories, he’d storm out, furious that I was polluting the discussion with how the world actually works.
Greta Thunberg is a leftist down to the marrow of her bones, so she, too, refuses to have her ideological purity tainted by the facts. That’s why, when Israel attempted to show her and her fellow “selfie” yacht comrades footage of the October 7 atrocities,
Department of Homeland Security head Kristi Noem was in Los Angeles Thursday giving a briefing to reporters on the response to the Los Angeles anti-ICE rioting. Then suddenly off to the side you can hear a commotion and someone shouting.
After he created a scene and they were removing him, he identified himself as a senator.
Noem said she would speak with him later.
When I leave here, I’ll have a conversation with him, but I think everyone would agree that wasn’t appropriate,” she said once the press conference began.
“When I leave here, I’ll find him and visit and find out really what his concerns were.
There’s a plausible argument that the current spate of civil unrest in deep blue cities is actually a MAGA setup ultimately benefitting Donald J. Trump. Indeed, the “optics” resemble an over-the-top horror movie for the Democrats: giant Mexican flags brandished over burning car wrecks; chunks of cement dropped on police from freeway overpasses; uncontrolled looting; a curfew ignored; molotov cocktails thrown; childishly scrawled f-word graffiti, and vast arrays of mostly young but physically unattractive people.
Where’s the mass appeal in that picture? Hollywood would reject a script like that as unbelievable and disgusting.
Longtime Democratic Washington, D.C., Delegate to the House of Representatives Eleanor Holmes Norton told reporters Tuesday that she intends to run for reelection in 2026. Norton, who turns 88 on Friday, replied “yeah, sure,” after she was asked if she is seeking reelection, Politico reported. When asked how she would respond to anyone questioning whether she is capable of continuing to serve in Congress at her age, Norton stated “I’m going to run,” adding “I don’t know why anybody would even ask me,” the outlet reported. Norton’s comments come after several recent reports have highlighted concerns over her age and ability to continue serving in Congress effectively.
