Democrat Sen. Fetterman Defends Trump’s
Planned White House Ballroom
Posted By: FlyRight, 8/31/2025 8:13:22 AM
Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) once again has broken with his fellow Democrats, this time defending President Donald Trump’s plan to add a large ballroom to the White House. The plans are going to be done in a tasteful and historical kind of way,” Fetterman said in an interview this week with Fox News Digital. “They’re not putting in a Dave & Buster’s kind of situation here, so I think upgrading some of these facilities seems pretty normal.” Fetterman, to the surprise of many pundits, has emerged during Trump’s second term as a maverick, a bipartisan-minded Democrat who has backed the president on a variety of issues including Israel, the border,

President Donald Trump shared security footage of contractors, who he claimed were responsible for a “huge gash in the limestone” in the White House’s Rose Garden. In a post on Truth Social, Trump highlighted how he was “very proud of the beautiful stonework” in the Rose Garden, adding that renovations of the Rose Garden were “completed.” Trump continued to add that days ago, while “admiring the stonework,” he noticed the gash in the limestone that “extended more than 25 yards long”
Upon reviewing security camera footage,
The left is lashing out as the9 Trump administration prepares to use Chicago’s Great Lakes Naval Station as a base for immigration enforcement sweeps in Chicago and Illinois. The Department of Homeland Security has reportedly asked the Navy facility to gear up for “limited support in the form of facilities, infrastructure, and other logistical needs to support DHS operations,” according to the Wall Street Journal. The plans are still in the early stages for the facility situated about 35 miles north of downtown Chicago.

Vice President JD Vance says President Donald Trump has successfully gotten Democrats to support violent crime in the nation’s capital after the administration deployed the National Guard to help the Metropolitan Police Department cut crime. During a speech in La Crosse, Wisconsin, Vance said Democrats are going as far as to mock violent crime problems in cities across the United States, only because Trump is looking to step in and help local law enforcement to make communities safer.
“Is Milwaukee a super safe city right now? It has some crime problems. It’s a beautiful city. There are a lot of incredible, hard-working people who live there,” Vance said.
The Department of Education (ED) announced on Thursday that a Colorado School District violated Title IX by converting a high school girls’ restroom into an “all-gender” restroom and by allowing students to access facilities that match their “gender identity.” The department’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR) found Denver Public Schools (DPS) in violation of Title IX’s prohibition against sex discrimination after launching an investigation into the district in January. The department initiated the probe after a local report alleged that the district had converted a girls’ restroom in East High School to a multi-stall “all-gender” restroom,
The Deadly Cost of Politicizing Crime

Another tragedy unfolded in Minneapolis this past week, and the details are telling. Instead of an honest discussion about crime, violence, and the safety of our communities, we once again watched the media twist itself into knots to avoid offending the “protected classes” of today’s progressive culture. Who could’ve predicted that placating delusion and coddling mental instability would lead to unfettered violence? The storyline is predictable: when a criminal fits a certain profile, the media blasts it across the headlines as proof of some larger cultural plague. But when the same violence comes from a person who identifies as transgender,
I've been working on something about this for a couple of weeks, but other stories and life events have pulled me away from it. I tell you that because my original intro that I wrote last week said something about how the mainstream media isn't covering Venezuela properly at the moment. It still isn't, but it's beginning to, which is just another sign that we're getting closer to the edge of something big, most likely the end of the Nicolás Maduro regime and years of Chavista dictatorship in a country that is down on its knees.
As we reported earlier, French Prime Minister François Bayrou has called a ‘confidence vote’ on the Parliament after becoming unable to approve his budget bill with his minortity government.

Last month, Social Security celebrated its 87th “birthday.” Since being signed into law in August 1935 and beginning payouts on Jan. 1, 1940, Social Security has served as a financial foundation for our nation’s retired workforce.
Today, more than 48 million retired workers are receiving a monthly check that averages $1,670.95, as of July. While this might not sound like a lot — especially with inflation at four-decade highs — Social Security plays a key role in helping recipients make ends meet. According to national pollster Gallup, 89% of surveyed retirees count on Social Security as a “major” or “minor” source of income.
Tuesday marked a watershed moment in the fight for constitutional rights and the protection of government whistleblowers. The ACLJ is proud to announce a complete and total victory for our client, FBI Special Agent Garret O’Boyle, who has been fully vindicated through a comprehensive settlement agreement with the DOJ made possible by President Trump’s administration and his new leadership at the DOJ and FBI. The DOJ has agreed to fully restore FBI Special Agent Garret O’Boyle with back pay, benefits, damages, and full reinstatement – including his security clearance – after years of persecution under the Biden administration.

President Trump on Thursday floated the idea of holding a 2026 national convention to galvanize Republicans ahead of the must-win mid-term elections.
“I am thinking of recommending a National Convention to the Republican Party, just prior to the Midterms,” Trump posted on Truth Social. The president didn’t mention a potential venue, but advised supporters to “stay tuned.”
Trump’s gambit would mark the first time the GOP has held a convention during a mid-term election.
To explain his thinking, the president asserted that “the Republican Party is doing really well” and has raised “far more money than Democrats” -

Former President Barack Obama and former Attorney General Eric Holder released a video Thursday calling on supporters to back the National Democratic Redistricting Committee (NDRC), warning that Republican-led redistricting efforts in states such as Texas, Florida, and Ohio threaten to undermine minority voting power and reshape congressional control ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. Obama appeared in a video message posted on X alongside Holder to rally support for the National Democratic Redistricting Committee (NDRC), the group the two founded in 2017 to challenge GOP-led redistricting plans.
Bill Clinton is facing renewed questions about his health after he and his wife, Hillary, were spotted leaving the Hamptons this week with a portable defibrillator bag in tow — just two months after the 79-year-old former president was seen stumbling on a Big Apple sidewalk. The longtime Democratic power couple was photographed Thursday carrying what appeared to be a Propaq MD Air Medical Bag — a transport monitor and defibrillator commonly used in emergencies — as they boarded a private plane.

Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., called for the 25th Amendment to the Constitution to be used against President Donald Trump on Friday, suggesting he was unfit, during a discussion about his removal of Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve's Board of Governors. "It is time to call for Article [Amendment] 25 of the Constitution of the United States of America to determine his unfitness, to determine that something’s wrong with this president. And I would suggest that we move very aggressively to talk about the danger to this country and to our democracy and not play around with this, because this is absolutely one of the most destructive things
The winds of change could soon blow on Iran, according to a new report.
The Islamic Republic is facing collapse, indicates the report, issued by UK-based Henry Jackson Society this week, as the UN accuses Tehran of executing nearly 900 people already this year “as a tool of intimidation.”
If the Islamic Republic falls, “there is a danger that regime collapse could lead to a vacuum of governance that is accompanied by civil war,” according to the findings.
“This is an outcome that must be avoided at all costs for the Iranian people, and every step must therefore be made to ensure that any transition is quick and painless,” it added.
Conservative activist Scott Presler is sounding the alarm for Republicans, warning that unless the party immediately changes its strategy, November could bring devastating losses.
In a late-night video, Presler said he wasn’t trying to spread doom and gloom, but reality. “I’m not here to bring you a happy video. I’m here to give you a dose of reality,” he began. "I'm here to tell you, Republicans are gonna lose everything this November unless we change things and quickly."
Presler pointed to three key battlegrounds—Virginia, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania—where Republicans are in danger of losing everything. “You’re gonna lose the governorship in Virginia and you’re gonna have a Democrat.
It has been fully recognized since the November election that the Democratic Party has been hobbled more than a three-legged gelding, but things refuse to improve for that lot. Throughout this year, the party has seen its prospects withering across the board, whether it is in internal operations, public approval, voting efforts, fundraising, or media outreach.
And much like the condition of the national media industry, there is no desire exhibited by them to change what is not working. And this week it became even worse.
It was announced that the Bill Gates Foundation was suspending its monetary involvement with one of the primary non-profits affiliated with the Democratic Party.
A federal judge has blocked the Trump administration’s efforts to expand a fast-track deportation process, ruling that the broadened application of the sped-up process creates “a significant risk” that immigrants who may be entitled to stay in the U.S. will be hustled out of the country.
In a decision issued Friday evening, U.S. District Judge Jia Cobb granted a request by an immigrant advocacy group to put a hold on a pair of policies the administration issued in January that made millions more immigrants eligible for expulsion from the U.S. under a process known as “expedited removal.”

Attorney General Pam Bondi fired another Department of Justice paralegal Friday — after the environmental division employee flipped off a National Guard member on her way to work.
Elizabeth Baxter works in the same building as fellow fired paralegal Sean Charles Dunn, who allegedly threw a salami Subway sandwich at a Border Protection officer.
Baxter arrived for work at the DOJ’s “4CON” building in the NoMa district of Washington, DC, at 8.21 a.m. on Aug. 18, and boasted to a DOJ security guard that she had just made the obscene gesture to a guardsman at Metro Center Metro Stop and said, “F–k the National Guard,” according to Bondi.
Pope Leo XIV on Sunday called for an end to the “pandemic of arms, large and small,” as he prayed publicly for the victims of a shooting during a Catholic school Mass in the United States.

“Our prayers for the victims of the tragic shooting during a school Mass in the American state of Minnesota,” said the Chicago-born Leo. “We hold in our prayers the countless children killed and injured every day around the world.

We’ve written about many of the problems Britain is experiencing—and the terrible choices their government has made over the years—because it’s a cautionary tale. Many of the policies that have led to its decline, like unfettered immigration from populations that despise the United Kingdom's values, insane censorship, a national health service with endless wait times for an appointment, and a refusal to listen to its residents' desires, are exactly the kind of “utopian” dictates that leftists have been trying to impose on this country for years.A new poll from YouGov reveals exactly how Britons feel about the state of their kingdom, and the numbers are truly ugly:
A Christian worship leader will hold a concert in Seattle this weekend, even as LGBTQ activists urge city leaders to revoke his permit. Sean Feucht, a Christian singer and conservative activist, is scheduled to bring his "Revive in ’25" tour to Gas Works Park on Saturday. Feucht rose to national prominence during the COVID lockdowns, when he launched his "Let Us Worship" movement protesting restrictions on religious gatherings. He has also faced criticism over the years for his support of President Donald Trump and his comments about the LGBTQ community. Earlier this month, eight Canadian cities revoked permits for Feucht’s
The Imperial Judiciary

By now we are getting used to lower courts misappropriating their roles, acting as if they occupied that of the chief executive. As these cases reach the Supreme Court, they are being overturned, but not without a cost to the president’s agenda or to the respect to which we’d normally accord the judiciary. The notion of a judicial coup is not far off, and people like Elon Musk suggest it’s time for Congress to initiate impeachment proceedings against the worst offenders.
