is counting on Trump ‘more than ever’

Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado — who was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize Friday — said she is counting on President Trump now “more than ever” as her movement is on the “threshold of victory.” “This immense recognition of the struggle of all Venezuelans is an impetus to conclude our task: to conquer Freedom,” she told The Post in a statement from her South American hideout after the Norwegian Nobel Committee announced her win. “We are on the threshold of victory and today more than ever we count on President Trump, the people of the United States,

ABC's This Week host, aging Clintonite muppet George Stephanopoulos, found himself playing the role of a rotisserie chicken as he attempted to talk about anything but the Schumer Shutdown with Vice President JD Vance.
You'd think the government shutdown would be a major item for Stephanopoulos, but as the administration is refusing to break ranks and seems to be turning the crisis of no appropriations into an opportunity to slash the government workforce.
Stephanopoulos led off with a nonsense assertion that U.S. troops would be peacekeepers in Gaza. From there, he went to National Guard deployment and the flaccid resistance of a federal judge and Illinois's morbidly obese governor, J.B. Pritzker.
They can't ignore her. And she won't stop praising President Trump.
Nobel peace prize winner Maria Corina Machado has got the press over a barrel with her continuous praise of President Trump, going on every mainstream media outlet to say just that.
Just look at the tight, pained, face of CBS's Lilia Luciano when Machado explains why Trump is so good for world peace and peace in Venezuela -- she pours it on: CBS had to run with it, there was no editing allowed now, not after the flak they took, the big payouts they paid, for all their selective editing in the past. It probably helps
Israel Defense Forces (IDF) Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir delivered a victory address Sunday, after his troops pulled back to ceasefire lines within Gaza and prepared to escort the released hostages back to Israel.
His remarks are as follows (translated from Hebrew by the IDF):
Bereaved families,
IDF personnel harmed physically or emotionally,
IDF soldiers and commanders, in mandatory, carrer, and reserve service and their families,
Citizens of Israel,
The IDF is now launching Operation “Returning Home” to return our hostages from Hamas captivity. In a few hours we will all be reunited – one people, embraced and united.
Even Barack Obama’s former Homeland Security secretary is blaming Democrats for the government shutdown—a stunning admission that underscores just how disastrous the party’s obstruction has become. Jeh Johnson, who led the Department of Homeland Security during the Obama administration, appeared on CNN’s The Source with Kaitlan Collins and openly broke with his party, warning that Democrats are making a “mistake” by filibustering the CR and shutting down the government.
Collin began by playing a clip of a past exchange between her and White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, who placed the blame squarely at the feet of Democrats for the Reductions in Force
Democrats spent years insisting that providing free healthcare to illegal immigrants was a moral imperative. They haven’t exactly kept that a secret. During the 2020 Democratic presidential primaries, every single candidate promised their healthcare plans would cover healthcare for illegals. Now, though, they've shut down the federal government to protect funding streams for these programs—but are pretending that’s not what they are after.
Nevertheless, we know what their objectives are. But their crusade to give free healthcare to illegals has hit a bit of a snag. Faced with exploding costs and healthcare systems on the brink of collapse, blue state governors are quietly pulling the plug on their own sacred cow.

Donald Trump began his promised mass purge of federal workers Friday, as more than 4,100 people were laid off as the government shutdown rolls on. The president previewed the pink slips in a press conference in the Oval Office earlier Friday, blaming them and the shutdown on the Democrats. 'It'll be a lot and it'll be Democrat-oriented because we figure they started this thing. It'll be a lot of people, all because of the Democrats,' Trump said.
It's the biggest set of firings in government since Elon Musk's DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) purge early in Trump's second term. The White House budget office said Friday that mass firings

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump said Friday that “there seems to be no reason” to meet with Chinese leader Xi Jinping as part of an upcoming trip to South Korea after China restricted exports of rare earths needed for American industry.
The Republican president suggested that he was looking at a “massive increase” of import taxes on Chinese products in response to Xi’s moves.
“One of the Policies that we are calculating at this moment is a massive increase of Tariffs on Chinese products coming into the United States of America,” Trump posted on his Truth Social platform. “There are many other countermeasures that are, likewise, under serious consideration.”
Sex offender Richard Kenneth Cox claimed to be transgender in order to access women’s bathrooms and locker rooms in Virginia where he exposed himself to women and young girls. When he reached out to a local school board member using an alias to complain about a pool’s locker-room policy and the alleged transphobic treatment he faced, he received a sympathetic reply.
Arlington School Board member Kathleen Clark told Cox that she hoped he “did not experience transphobic statements from the staff. You should be able to use the showers
The Washington Post, even after owner Jeff Bezos's shakeups, is anything but a publication friendly to Republicans or the Trump administration. But even members of the legacy media sometimes have to admit the obvious.
One of those is Washington Post Marc A. Thiessen, who on Thursday penned a piece making the case for President Trump being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. This isn't a new notion; the idea's been kicked around before. But the calls seem to be getting louder.
Not only does Donald Trump deserve the Nobel Peace Prize, but there has arguably never been an American president who deserved it more.
MELBOURNE, Florida — The Florida man accused of sparking the flames that burned swaths of Los Angeles to the ground in the Palisades Fire posted on social media about how global warming causes wildfires.
Jonathan Rinderknecht, 29, regularly took to Facebook to share posts about eco-apocalypses, mocking President Trump and his supporters, and pushing people to become vegans.
One article he shared – “Climate Change Will Force a New American Migration,” from ProPublica – even included a thumbnail showing wildfires raging across a California hillside neighborhood. That 2020 story opened by discussing blazing West Coast temperatures.
It’s eerily – and ironically – similar to the situation Rinderknecht is accused

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth made a shocking announcement about enlistment after ridding the U.S. military of its woke invasion, and he credited President Donald Trump's leadership as the main reason.
During Trump's cabinet meeting at the White House on Thursday, Hegseth revealed that recruitment and reenlistment were at record levels, exceeding goals they had set for the year. "We saw record recruitment in 2025, Mr. President," Hegseth said in front of the press. "The first two weeks of [Fiscal Year] 2026 [which starts in October] already blows that out …[FY 2026] already blows it out the water."
"In fact, reenlistment has already reached

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton commended the Trump administration on Friday for brokering the Gaza peace deal.
"It’s a really significant first step and I really commend Trump and his administration as well as Arab leaders in the region for making the commitment to the 20-point plan and seeing a path forward for what's often called the day after," Clinton, Trump's 2016 rival in the presidential election, said on CBS News 24/7.

Tiny Republican Texas County With ‘Melanated’ Voters 20 replies
An activist and self-described 2028 presidential candidate is offering free homes for his allies to move to a GOP-leaning Texas county and change its electoral makeup to support — as he puts it — “melanated people” like himself.
Malcolm Tanner has declared his plans to radically change the government of Loving County by the 2026 midterm elections in social media posts first reported by The Houston Chronicle. Tanner promises to root out “corruption” in the oil-rich, majority-white county on behalf of his group, Melanated People of Power.
The Republican Party of Shelby County called for the resignation of General Sessions Court Clerk Tami Sawyer after police body-worn camera video was released, appearing to show Sawyer engaged in a profane and racially motivated rant against law enforcement.
In a press release posted to X on Thursday, the party wrote that it “unequivocally condemns the racist attacks” by the clerk, which the party noted were directed at members of the Shelby County Sheriff’s Office.
Video posted to social media by State Senator Brent Taylor (R-Memphis) appears to show Sawyer engaged in a profane argument with police
Yesterday, we came across a Wall Street Journal article titled: “Tariffs Are Way Up. Interest on Debt Tops $1 Trillion. And DOGE Didn’t Do Much.”
The Journal based its report on a Congressional Budget Office report released earlier in the week.
But I&I readers knew all this months ago.
Because while Democrats and the mainstream press were freaking out about how the Department of Government Efficiency was slashing government, we were reporting the facts.
Back in February, we debunked the claim that Elon Musk was taking a chainsaw to the federal government
Tylenol and Autism: More to the Story

In 2020, the Atlanta-based U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said that one in 36 children (approximately four percent of boys and one percent of girls) was estimated to have autism-spectrum disorder, estimates that were significantly higher than those in all previous years.
But just five years later, according to the press conference held just weeks ago on September 22, President Trump — in the presence of U.S. Health and Human Services (HHS) secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz —

If we want to humiliate a party stupidly expressing its disapproval of us, we can take a lesson from J.K. Rowling. The Vancouver Parks and Recreation board voted unanimously to apologize for the Harry Potter: A Forbidden Forest Experience event set to open on November 7 in Vancouver’s Stanley Park after hearing from members of Vancouver’s 2SLGBTQ+ Advisory Committee.
In the X post below, Ms. Rowling advises the board how to ratchet up the pain. The upshot of her advice is that she could not care less, and yet she has delivered her message with a wit that probably exceeds the board’s capacity for comprehension. The Vancouver Sun helpfully
The National Education Association (NEA), which represents millions of U.S. educators, sent an email to its approximately 3 million members with a map omitting Israel and labeling the territory as “Palestine.” The email was described as a resource packet for teaching about indigenous peoples, but critics argue it was promoting not recognizing Israel. The North American Values Institute (NAVI) called the inclusion of the map in the NEA email “an inexcusable lapse,” arguing the union must be held accountable for disseminating content that rationalizes anti-Israel sentiment. The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) also condemned the action, saying it crosses from careless oversight

Four people were killed and at least 12 others were injured when gunfire erupted in the wake of a Mississippi homecoming football game Friday night, officials said.
The shooting occurred around midnight Saturday on a main street in the small town of Leland, Mayor John Lee told CBS News.
Four of the wounded were airlifted to nearby hospitals, including Baptist Medical Center in Jackson, though officials could not disclose the status of their injuries.
No suspects have been identified or taken into custody.
According to Lee, the tragedy took place in the midst of the town’s homecoming celebrations.
The Israeli government published a list of the convicted Palestinian terrorists it agreed to release as part of the ceasefire-and-hostage deal that took effect Friday — and it includes murderers with shocking records. The list, published the morning after the cabinet approved the US-backed ceasefire deal, includes members of the Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, Fatah and the Popular Front terror groups, responsible for dozens of deadly terror attacks, but does not include some key terror chiefs Hamas has demanded, including popular Fatah figure Marwan Barghouti.
The transgender issues that helped propel Donald Trump to his 2024 election victory continue to trap and flummox Democrats.
The latest Democrat caught by the transgender tar baby is Rep. Abigail Spanberger, the Virginia Democrat running for governor. Spanberger was debating her Republican opponent, Lt. Governor Winsome Earle-Sears, earlier this week when the subject of men in girls' locker rooms came up. "We know that girls want to have privacy," Earle-Sears said. "[Spanberger] voted for men nude in girls locker rooms, in bathrooms, and in girls' sports." Earle-Sears was referring to Spanberger's vote for the Equality Act, which allows transgender people to use the bathroom and locker room
Democrats shut down the government partly to force Republicans to extend COVID-era boosts in Obamacare subsidies that Dems once called “temporary” but now say are needed to keep the program viable.
This reveals what a true disaster Obamacare has been, as its critics warned even as Dems were ramming it into law with not a single Republican vote in 2010.
Blindly tossing fresh trillions down that hole is nuts: Time to fix it — or scrap it altogether.
The 10-year cost of Dems’ current demand totals almost a half-trillion dollars, to benefit primarily insurers and wealthier Americans.
Under the expiration that Democrats wrote into law, 1.6 million Americans (just 0.5% of the population)
I wish this were satire, but it’s not. We’re in the middle of a government shutdown battle, and The Washington Post decided to blast this email, apparently, to every member of Congress. You’d think it would be about the shutdown, right? Something about the issue of health care subsidies expiring, or health care for illegal aliens—but, alas, no. It was about which member of Congress was vaccinated against COVID. I’m not kidding: [Tweet]
Seriously, is this really what’s at the top of the story well over there? COVID is over.
