Versant is rebranding MSNBC as MS NOW, which stands for My Source for News, Opinion and the World, and dropping the iconic Peacock logo as part of the change. The rebrand, announced Monday, is part of Comcast’s efforts to separate the progressive cable news channel from NBC News and its other assets as it works to spin off its linear cable properties by the end of this year.

After more than 50 years, Southwest Airlines' "bags fly free" policy is finally coming to an end. Southwest on Tuesday announced the first checked bag will cost $35, while a second checked bag will cost $45. The policy will begin tomorrow, when some passengers may be subject to a checked bag fee when booking a flight on the discount carrier. Weight and size limits for bags will apply. The new policy only applies to flights booked on May 28 or later, which means today is the last day to book if passengers want to avoid the new fee.
The United States will work with partners and stakeholders in Syria to help seize the opportunity that has presented itself after rebel fighters' stunning overthrow of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, President Joe Biden said on Sunday.
"At long last, the Assad regime has fallen," said Biden, commenting on a fast-moving string of events in Syria that caught some in the White House off guard.
Biden and his top national security aides took stock of a new-look Middle East that may be emerging after rebel forces ousted Assad in little more than a week.
An Ontario town has been fined $10,000 and its officials ordered to complete mandatory “human rights” training after it refused to celebrate Pride Month. Emo is a township of about 1,300 people located in the far west of Ontario, along the border with Minnesota. In a decision handed down last week, the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario ruled that Emo, its mayor and two of its councillors had violated the Ontario Human Rights Code by refusing to proclaim June as “Pride Month.” The town was also cited for failing to fly “an LGBTQ2 rainbow flag,” despite the fact that they don’t have an official flag pole.
The teenage boy accused of shooting two people dead on Halloween has refused to show up to court - but his mom took his place instead. Jaylen Dwayne Edgar, 17, who allegedly killed two men and injured eight other people in downtown Orlando, failed to show up to court Saturday morning. Instead, his mother made an emotional appearance on his behalf according to Fox 35 Orlando. She spoke only to confirm his identity. The suspect is expected to be charged as an adult due to the severity of the crimes he is accused of. The judge said he will remain in juvenile custody.

Asked to Pay ‘Damages” To San Jose
State University 26 replies
Two of the five schools which chose to cancel and forfeit their women’s volleyball matches rather than compete against biological male player Blaire Fleming have been asked for money from San Jose State University (SJSU). Boise State University (BSU) and Utah State University, have been asked by SJSU to pay the school $1,250 each to compensate for revenue lost when the matches were forfeited.
The Biden-Harris administration is giving Israel 30 days to improve humanitarian aid efforts in Gaza or else the US could halt military assistance, according to a letter sent to the Israeli military. The Oct. 13 letter, penned by US Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, threatens to pause the delivery of US weapons and aid to Israel unless the Jewish state provides assurance that humanitarian aid is flowing into Gaza unhindered, according to reports in Israeli media.
The “White Dudes For Harris” cringefest was held on Zoom on Monday evening. Zoom? Really? We’re still doing this? Didn’t we all get our fill of this medium in 2020? I know I did. Besides the online Zoom format, it was just as awful as you can imagine a white-guy-only affinity group in support of the constantly failing upward Cacklin’ Kamala could be.
Somewhere in America's vast wetlands, there's a one-legged duck with a broken wing who just heard about Presidentish Joe Biden and said, "At least I'm not that guy." Biden entered lame-duck status long before his sudden announcement on X Sunday afternoon — it was his announcement, right? RIGHT? — and I can even pinpoint the exact date for you. It was Oct. 28, 2021. That seems like a long time ago, doesn't it?
Dementia Joe Circles Back to Racism
10 replies
Anyone who’s ever dealt with an Alzheimer’s (or dementia) parent or grandparent knows the routine -- they only talk about five or six topics before they return to the first. By the time they’ve reached topic #5, they’ve completely forgotten that, only 30 minutes prior, they spent 10 minutes telling you about story #1. (Snip) It’s obvious; Joe Biden has reached dementia stage where he only talks about five or six topics before reverting back to topic #1. (Snip) Drum roll, please… the topic that Biden always “circles back” to is racism.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection is warning agents to be on the lookout for explosive devices. A federal law-enforcement source shared with FOX Business Network an internal officer safety alert dated December 13th that warns CBP agents to be vigilant after the Mexican military seized 10 improvised explosive devices (IEDs) at the border. The IEDs were found by Mexican authorities after Tucson border patrol observed gunshots at the U.S.-Mexico border and a Tucson supervisory border patrol agent arrested an armed person on the U.S. side who had a loaded AK-47 rifle, two loaded AK magazines, loose rounds and a handgun.
The Biden Administration is forging ahead with its green agenda by committing the United States to not building any new coal plants and phasing out existing plants. U.S. Special Envoy for Climate John Kerry announced at the annual United Nations climate change summit, known as COP28 and which is being held in Dubai, although no date was given for when the existing plants would have to go. "We will be working to accelerate unabated coal phase-out across the world, building stronger economies and more resilient communities.”

Hurricane Erin strengthened back into a Category 4 behemoth over the weekend, the latest shift in what has been a remarkably fast-changing storm.
The hurricane’s behavior in recent days makes it one of the fastest-strengthening Atlantic hurricanes on record and yet another indication that climate change is increasing the risk of rapidly intensifying storms.
Erin became the first hurricane of this year’s Atlantic season Friday and exploded in strength from a Category 1 into a Category 5 storm in a little over 24 hours. Even after it weakened and re-strengthened into a Category 4 storm, Erin’s jaw-dropping transformation ranks it among the five storms

Center a 'monstrosity,' fear they'll be
displaced: report 43 replies
Chicago community leaders and longtime residents say the Obama Presidential Center risks washing away the neighborhood’s fabric, warning that proposed luxury developments tied to the project could price out families who have long called the South Side home, according to a report. They also say the sprawling 19.3-acre site in historic Jackson Park, with its 225-foot-tall concrete museum, has become an eyesore that disrupts the natural landscape and all locals are getting in return for the unsightly structure is soaring rents and higher tax bills.
Was the FBI Behind the Oklahoma Bombing?
22 replies
It has always been hard to believe that the truck-bombing of the A.P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City on April 19, 1995, which killed 168 people, including 19 children at a daycare center, was planned by just one or two perpetrators acting alone. However, the official story states that the mastermind was Gulf War veteran Timothy McVeigh, and that the two others sentenced with him only helped him in various ways.
Right from the start, warning signs indicated that the investigation was being misled. The FBI developed a story claiming that a group called the Patriots Movement, which included anti-government extremists and white supremacists, was responsible for the attack.

In Taylor Swift Lyrics In Unhinged Anti-Trump Screed 20 replies
In a creepy Substack video, Trump-hating James Comey, former FBI director-turned amateur life coach, uses Taylor Swift lyrics to bash the president.
He titles the five-minute rant, “On Taylor Swift,” but spends a lot of time griping about Trump, who last week had the nerve to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin and try to jumpstart negotiations to end the deadly Ukraine-Russian War.
The Farce Is Strong With Mark Hamill
17 replies
Mark Hamill, the man most famous for playing the character of Luke Skywalker, recently admitted that he nearly packed his bags after Donald Trump won re-election in 2024. Apparently, the thought of another Trump term sent the actor spiraling into the dark side, ready to abandon this country altogether. He even floated the idea past his wife, Marilou York, offering her a choice between moving to London or settling in Ireland. It's a bold proclamation on its surface, but like so many of Hollywood’s political temper tantrums, it ended in retreat.
Quite a Day on the World Stage

So Trump met with Vladimir Putin in Alaska last Friday, got home, and played a round of golf on both Saturday and Sunday. The remaining big dogs of Europe, who have spent the past eight years sneering at this guy, dropped everything, jetting in to meet him at the White House today to hear all about the thing with Putin.
They were all working together - together. Who else could have done this? Seriously.
Love him or hate him, the answer is 'nobody.'
There were some memorable scenes coming out of the life or death discussions.
First and foremost, my girl- Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, gracing
Texas State Representative Nicole Collier (D-Fort Worth) slept at her desk on the floor of the State House after she refused to sign a document that required a police escort to allow her to leave the building. The Texas speaker of the House made any Democrat legislator who wanted to leave the building sign a pass agreeing to be escorted by a Department of Public Safety trooper to ensure their return to the chamber when required.
House Speaker Dustin Burrows (R-Lubbock) issued a requirement that Democrat representatives must sign an agreement to be escorted by a DPS trooper on Monday after the legislators returned from a two-week quorum-breaking hiatus.
Hamas Accepts a New Ceasefire Deal
14 replies
Hamas has apparently accepted the terms of a ceasefire deal similar to one that was proposed last month but never put in place. The deal would free some remaining hostages in exchange for more than 200 Palestinian prisoners.
In a statement, Hamas said it had accepted the new proposal presented on Sunday by Qatar and Egypt.
Basem Naim, a senior member of Hamas’ political bureau, said on social media, “The movement has accepted the new proposal from the mediators. We pray that God extinguishes the fires of this war on our people.”
Snarky repeats of the same timeline by California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s (D) troll account weren’t enough to buck the blame over a fatal Florida crash.
Tragedy in the Sunshine State left three people dead and an illegal alien facing vehicular homicide charges following an attempted unlawful U-turn on the Florida Turnpike. As the once-Golden State was faulted for issuing the commercial driver’s license, attempts by the Governor Newsom Press Office account to steer clear of accountability were met with fact checks from the Department of Homeland Security.
A particularly scathing rebuke was delivered by DHS Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs Tricia McLaughlin

With Unvetted Sponsors Under Biden, Senator Finds 10 replies
The Biden administration placed thousands of illegal alien children in the care of unvetted sponsors, according to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley. The Iowa Republican has released Department of Health and Human Services data showing that during President Joe Biden’s administration, over 11,000 unaccompanied alien children were placed with unvetted sponsors who were not the children’s parents or legal guardians. Additionally, no home visits were conducted for over 79,000 illegal immigrant children.
Another preventable tragedy has shown the world just how dangerous America’s roads have become. Three innocent lives were snuffed out when an illegal Indian truck driver, Harjinder Singh, made an insane u-turn on a Florida turnpike.If Singh’s name sounds familiar, it’s because there are unconfirmed reports that he is the same inept (illegal) driver who, a few years back, took out a historic Arkansas bridge after ignoring the posted warning signs.
Either way, he should never have been on the road to begin with, yet here we are, with three more victims and a national scandal that’s now impossible to ignore.
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey, a Republican who has been an ardent backer of President Donald Trump, said Monday that he is resigning to take a leadership position at the Federal Bureau of Investigation.The move is the latest in a series of changes at the FBI under Director Kash Patel.

Mike Kehoe is to announce a new appointee as attorney general on Tuesday.
