The Treasury Department is reviewing a proposal to mint new $1 coins featuring President Donald Trump’s image as part of the upcoming commemoration of America’s 250th anniversary, FOX Business reported Friday. In a statement provided to FOX Business, a Treasury spokesperson tied the proposed coin to the broader effort to honor the nation’s founding. “Despite the radical left’s forced shutdown of our government, the facts are clear: Under the historic leadership of President Donald J. Trump, our nation is entering its 250th anniversary stronger, more prosperous, and better than ever,” the spokesperson said.

The US Mint is a private group, sort of like the FED. They work with and are subject to a lot of things from the US Treasury and congress, but they are also more and more desperate for increasing coin collecting, which is on a downward trend. Which is why they are going nuts touting their new line of Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman and Green Lantern coins. That is not a joke. They are being rolled out now. Usually, congress and the Sec of Treasury propose and approve every coin or medal the Mint makes, but as the DC comics effort shows, the Mint can do it's own thing sometimes. I am surprised that this is being presented as a circulating coin. Not the usual process, but things are different now. After the DC series, which was from the same line of thinking as the basketball and baseball collectable coins, anything is possible. BTW there IS a Presidential Medal for President Trump that will be minted. EVERY President gets one produced, and many First Ladies as well Here are the designs that were done and presented for review in 2020 - https://www.ccac.gov/system/files/media/calendar/images/Trump-Final-Portfolio---Email_ADA.pdf

Private company, NOT government. They can do whatever they think sells. This isn't any different than someone selling Trump flags or hats.

Virginia’s Democratic attorney general candidate Jay Jones chillingly suggested that if more cops got killed after being stripped of legal protection, they would shoot fewer people, according new claims from an ex-colleague in the state legislature. Jones, a former Democrat representative in Virginia’s House of Delegates, is already facing calls to drop out after Republican Del. Carrie Coyner revealed 2022 text exchanges between them in which he suggested he would shoot then-House Speaker Todd Gilbert over Adolf Hitler, and said Gilbert and his wife should have to watch his “fascist” children die.

Hold on to your britches because you’re not going to believe this one. The Washington Post Editorial Board just admitted that the so-called "Affordable Care Act," one the most notorious pieces of Obama-era legislation foisted upon consumers by legislators and the liberal media as the saving grace of American health care, turned out to be an expensive mess. The Post tried to play both sides of the fence in the ongoing government shutdown stand off with Republicans and Democrats, the latter of which demanded “Republicans agree to extend the Covid-era insurance subsidies without proposing any way to pay for it.” Then The Post ran one of the biggest plot twists ever

But now, as Jones is embroiled in scandal over text messages in which he fantasized about shooting a Republican state leader, Everytown is sitting on the sidelines. Everytown, which donated to Jones’s campaign on Aug. 26 and named him one of its "Gun Sense Candidates," has not weighed in on revelations that Jones, a former Virginia house delegate, said in a series of text messages in 2022 that then-Virginia house speaker Todd Gilbert, a Republican, deserved "two bullets

Chinese illegal immigrants are obtaining commercial driver’s licenses (CDL) and landing jobs in the U.S. trucking industry with support from a Chinese government-linked network, a Daily Caller News Foundation investigation discovered. The Chinese American Trucker Organization USA Inc. (CATOU) is a New York-based nonprofit trade organization registered as a 501(c)6 that has allegedly helped over 1,000 Chinese students obtain CDLs and has a 100% pass rate, according to its business filings, social media posts and website. Videos posted on social media by an individual who crossed the U.S. southern border illegally shows they were able to rapidly obtain California CDLs after taking courses taught by CATOU instructors.

United States immigration authorities are moving to dramatically expand their social media surveillance, with plans to hire nearly 30 contractors to sift through posts, photos, and messages—raw material to be transformed into intelligence for deportation raids and arrests. Federal contracting records reviewed by WIRED show that the agency is seeking private vendors to run a multiyear surveillance program out of two of its little-known targeting centers. The program envisions stationing nearly 30 private analysts at Immigration and Customs Enforcement facilities in Vermont and Southern California. Their job: Scour Facebook, TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and other platforms, converting posts and profiles into fresh leads for enforcement

he Democratic gubernatorial nominee in Virginia worked for a Saudi government-controlled school just after 9/11, at a time when the Islamic academy was already controversial for being controlled by the Saudi royal family and for its extremist textbooks which taught hatred of non-Muslims. Abigail Spanberger, a former Democratic congresswoman from Virginia, is currently the favorite to be the state’s next governor, according to polling averages. When it was revealed during her first congressional run in 2018 that she had worked for the Islamic Saudi Academy in northern Virginia during the 2002-2003 school year, Spanberger said that she was “proud” and “not ashamed” of her work history, despite the fact that,

The first lady channeled Charlotte “Charlie” Blackwood while visiting Naval Station Norfolk in Norfolk, Va., on Sunday as part of a Salute to the Fleet celebration in honor of its 250th anniversary. The 55-year-old donned a brown leather bomber jacket for this weekend’s event, which she paired with a collared white shirt and dark wash denim jeans. She completed her look with aviator shades and added a white baseball cap with “USA” embroidered across the front. The look was reminiscent of Tom Cruise’s beloved “Top Gun” character US Navy aviator Lt. Pete “Maverick” Mitchell’s love interest, played by Kelly McGillis in the franchise.

The off-year governor’s election in purple Virginia is almost always a win for the party that doesn’t hold the White House, but this year the race is showing how much Democrats have refused to learn their lessons from their massive culture-war losses of 2024. The battle in the Old Dominion has all the hallmarks of Democrats’ White House defeat in November. An uninspiring political-insider candidate, hand-picked by the party establishment, is running a campaign that relies on hype from friendly media. She’s dodging questions about hot-button cultural issues — including trans athletes in school sports and men in girls’ dressing rooms — and betting she can coast to victory on resistance-fueled backlash

Congress is not going to allow Big Auto to sideline consumer privacy and safety while getting subsidized massively by the federal government. That is because, in late September, by an overwhelming vote of 50 to 1, Chairman Brett Guthrie’s (R-KY) House Energy & Commerce Committee joined the Senate Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee in passing the AM Radio for Every Vehicle Act. This legislation is in response to some automakers removing AM radios from new model vehicles despite pleas from America’s public safety community not to do so. Advisors to President Trump have argued they continue doing so for financial reasons — because they want to force increased traffic onto their infotainment systems,

Thunberg, 22, was one of 437 activists, parliamentarians and lawyers who set out from Europe to deliver aid to Gaza by breaching Israel's 16-year maritime blockade of the enclave as part of the Freedom Flotilla, comprised of more than 40 vessels. Between Wednesday and Friday, Israel's navy intercepted all the boats and arrested every person onboard while in international waters.

California and Oregon sought the temporary restraining order after the president sent guard members from California to Oregon earlier in the day. On Saturday, the same judge temporarily blocked the administration from deploying Oregon National Guard troops to Portland. A Pentagon spokesperson said in a statement that about 200 federalized members of the California National Guard who had been on duty around Los Angeles were being reassigned to Portland. Oregon Gov.

The Democrats have backed themselves into a corner again, and this time, it’s not just political theater—it’s a standoff with serious consequences. The Schumer Shutdown is dragging into its second week, and President Donald Trump is done waiting for Democrats to come around. The message from the White House is crystal clear: if the talks with Democrats “are absolutely going nowhere,” as National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett put it, mass layoffs of federal workers are coming. The shutdown began when Senate Democrats refused to support a short-term funding bill that would have kept government agencies running through November 21. Their justification?

(X, X, X, X) There were also the minimalist posters that only featured the film's leading actor, in a dinner jacket, posing with his Walther PPK. Occasionally, even the villains participated in posing for similar stills. All these posters conveyed a message that Bond is a steadfast proponent and protector of the West. He was also an aspirational figure -- a fearless patriot who enjoyed the luxuries that men dream of. The posters were in synch with the minimalist, mysterious,
