with Saudi Crown Prince

First Lady Melania Trump was elegantly mysterious in an emerald gown for a dinner in the East Room of the White House, where she and the president hosted the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia. On Tuesday evening, Melania Trump, styled by Hervé Pierre, wore a strapless ruched coated jersey dress in a rich Absinthe green from Lebanese fashion powerhouse Elie Saab — an appropriate choice for dinner with the Saudi Crown Prince. The gown, still available at Neiman Marcus, retails for $3,350. Mrs. Trump kept the ensemble modest with only a pair of earrings from her personal jewelry collection and a pair of BB 105mm suede pumps from Manolo Blahnik,

Like most conservatives or libs, I had no idea who Brandon Gill was until March, when I caught this exchange as he grilled NPR chief Katherine Maher. Maher was appearing before Congress as part of her failed effort to save federal funding for public broadcasting. [Tweet, video]
For me, that put him on the map, and I’ve followed him more closely since. If you’re not familiar with Gill, he’s a 31-year-old freshman Republican member of Congress who represents the solidly red 26th Congressional District in Texas, not far from Dallas-Fort Worth. He’s one of the youngest members in the House.
Gill was born on a military base.
Charlotte, N.C., is making headlines this week because dozens of construction sites have gone silent. ICE swept through the region, and the labor force evaporated almost instantly. A major American city discovered, in real time, that its building boom was being held together by workers who couldn’t legally be there. Watching that footage hit me hard, because I’ve seen it before — not on the evening news, but in the slow collapse of my own childhood community. [Video]
I grew up forty miles north of Louisville, Ky., in a one-stoplight town held together by tobacco, construction, and the kinds of gritty jobs that built the region’s character.
It appears U.S. District Judge James Boasberg isn’t done with the issue of the Trump administration’s deportation flights earlier this year.
He is now trying to revive contempt proceedings against the White House.
From Politico:
U.S. District Judge James Boasberg, whose initial contempt proceedings were stymied for seven months by the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals, said he had the green light to resume after the appellate court lifted the hold on his case last week.
“Justice requires me to move promptly on this,” Boasberg said during a hearing on a lawsuit brought on behalf of men deported under President Donald Trump’s unprecedented peacetime invocation of the Alien Enemies Act.
The Chicago Subway Arson Attack Was Horrific

— the Suspect’s Real Rap Sheet Makes
It Even Worse 6 replies
Yesterday, Townhall told you about two horrible crimes in Chicago that happened just this week. In one, a pregnant woman and her child were beaten by a mob of students outside a Chicago school. If that wasn't bad enough, a 26-year-old woman was set on fire on Chicago's Blue Line after reportedly getting into an argument with a career criminal named Lawrence Reed.
In the initial reporting, we believed Reed had 22 prior arrests. That's inexcusable enough, but it turns out Reed had 49 prior arrests, including for arson, as well as ten felony convictions. And it seems Reed's victim didn't get into an argument with him at all.
It looks like SNAP, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program designed to help struggling Americans put food on their tables, is having a long-overdue and much-deserved "come to Jesus" moment. The program has come under intense scrutiny this year, particularly during the recent government shutdown when a spotlight shone brightly on the massive amount of taxpayer money being wasted on people abusing the system.
The SNAP scrutiny kicked off earlier this year when Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., emboldened by the growing Make American Health Again (MAHA) movement, gave permission to West Virginia to ban the use of federal food assistance dollars to purchase soft drinks.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested an illegal alien fugitive accused of beating and raping a woman in Houston, Texas.
On Wednesday, ICE officials announced the arrest of illegal alien Cesar Orlando Castro Serrano of El Salvador, who has been wanted by Houston police since 2023 on aggravated sexual assault, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, and aggravated kidnapping charges.
According to police, Castro Serrano allegedly beat a 22-year-old woman in the head with a tire iron and then raped her before leaving her in critical condition in a wooded area behind an apartment complex.
Since the alleged assault, Castro Serrano had been on the run.

Former President George W. Bush and his family are reportedly planning to retake the Republican Party from President Donald Trump once he is out of office, according to a recent report.
There are allegedly “rumors” stirring that there is a “plot to end the so-called ‘Bush Exile'” as part of an effort to take control of the GOP from Trump and his Make America Great Again (MAGA) policies, according to the Daily Mail:
Now, rumors are stirring of a plot to end the so-called ‘Bush Exile’ and take back the GOP from the so-called scourge of Trumpism.

An illegal alien from Georgia is accused of killing 23-year-old Indiana National Guardsman Terry Frye in a Boone County, Indiana, crash.
This week, local media confirmed that Goderdzi Guzabidze, the man accused of causing a fatal crash on Interstate 65 in Boone County that took the life of Terry Frye while injuring three other Indiana National Guardsmen, is an illegal alien from Georgia.
According to the Boone County Sheriff’s Office, Guzabidze was driving a truck that was also hauling a trailer when he swerved, spurring Frye’s Humvee to swerve to avoid Guzabidze’s truck.
The Humvee, as a result of swerving, veered off the interstate and flipped — killing Frye

James Comer Just Said About Their Epstein Depositions 9 replies
Back in August, the House Oversight Committee Chair, Republican Rep. James Comer (KY-1), announced that they were subpoenaing a variety of people for depositions in the Jeffrey Epstein matter. Among those people were Bill and Hillary Clinton. Hillary Clinton was scheduled to testify on Oct. 9, and Bill on Oct. 14.
In a move that probably would surprise no one, their appearances were postponed. It's now more than a month since they were supposed to appear. The last word was that the Committee was trying to arrange things with their schedules. However, there's been no announcement about a new date.

Charges of Stealing $5 Million in Alleged
FEMA Funds Scheme 14 replies
Democrat Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (FL-20) has been indicted for allegedly stealing $5 million in a FEMA funds scheme, according to the Department of Justice.
Fox News national correspondent Bill Melugin detailed the charges against the Florida Congresswoman, who is accused of stealing millions of FEMA funds, “laundering the proceeds, and then using the money to support her 2021 Congressional campaign.” [Tweet]
“Cherfilus-McCormick, 46, and her brother Edwin Cherfilus, 51, both of Miramar, worked through their family health-care company on a FEMA-funded COVID-19 vaccination staffing contract in 2021,” the DOJ press release shared. “In July 2021, the company received an overpayment of $5 million in FEMA funds.”
I was first made aware of this story by our sister site Twitchy, and the more I looked into it, the more I felt like it was a Monty Python skit about byzantine government operations.
Trump wants to clean up the 137-year-old Eisenhower Executive Office Building – not one of the prettier or more impressive buildings in The Swamp, I can tell you – but of course, some crazed historical group immediately filed suit to stop him.
At this rate, administration officials will need to get judicial approval just to use the bathroom.
The Trump team was forced to agree not to take any steps to beautify the building

'We Messed Up': Cracker Barrel CEO Answers

Questions for the First Time Since Rebrand Disaster 27 replies
Few stories grabbed national attention quite like the Cracker Barrel rebrand did this year. Even amid endless high-profile developments in Washington, the Cracker Barrel rebrand stood out as offensive to Americans everywhere. Like Bud Light's partnership with transgender activist Dylan Mulvaney, Cracker Barrel's new look felt like an attack on an American institution from an out-of-touch C-suite that bought into the leftist idea of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. The backlash was so severe that the company publicly slammed the brakes on their modern makeover and promised Americans they weren't changing a thing.
Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., announced on Thursday he is launching a campaign for California governor in 2026. The congressman and longtime foe of President Donald Trump made the announcement during an appearance on the late-night show, "Jimmy Kimmel Live!"
"He’s going to hate tonight’s episode," Swalwell wrote on X in response to a social media post from the president criticizing Kimmel for being "biased" and having "no talent." The Democrat lawmaker vowed to be a "protector and fighter" if elected governor.
Worst Living President Turns 83
22 replies
When Joe Biden, the worst living president of the United States, entered the world in 1942, there were still people alive who fought in the Civil War. Now he's celebrating his 83rd birthday. He is joined in celebration by his conniving wife, Dr. Jill Biden, his crackhead lothario son, Hunter Biden, his utterly disgraced former White House press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, and other deranged weirdos who view Biden's withdrawal from the 2024 campaign as a national tragedy.
If the Biden clan had gotten their way, we'd be less than halfway through the first half of President Biden's second term in office. He would be confined to his basement and getting treated
Dick Cheney's funeral was held on Thursday at the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C.
Cheney served as Vice President under President George W. Bush from 2001 to 2009. He died on Nov. 3, at 84 years old, "due to complications from pneumonia and cardiac and vascular disease." Bush and Cheney's daughter, Liz, gave the eulogies.
What got a lot of talk on social media about was who was there - and who wasn't.
Starting with the "who wasn't," President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance were not invited. Cheney and his daughter were big critics of Trump, and they supported Kamala Harris in her 2024 presidential run.
Liberal loudmouth Rep. Jasmine Crockett gave a mind-boggling explanation for why she accused Lee Zeldin and other Republicans on the House floor of taking donations from Jeffrey Epstein — desperately insisting she never said she was referring to the late convicted pedophile.
Crockett (D-Texas) tried to defend herself Wednesday night in a CNN appearance after she was ripped for boldly implying that she’d found evidence linking the Long Island Republican and other prominent GOPers to the disgraced financier, who died in 2019.
“Listen, I never said that it was that Jeffrey Epstein,” Crockett told “The Source” host Kaitlin Collins after being given the chance to correct the record.
The wealthy oceanfront town of Carmel, California, has banned pickleball in its public park after residents complained that the constant sound of paddles striking balls was too noisy.
The Carmel City Council voted earlier this month to permanently prohibit the sport at Forest Hill Park, the only public pickleball location within city limits, marking the first such ban in the state, according to sfgate.com.
Residents reported that the "popping" sound had been echoing through the neighborhood as players participated in the game that has grown in popularity, particularly among seniors and retirees, the outlet reported.
A prominent Muslim advocacy organization is taking Texas to court, arguing that Gov. Greg Abbott's decision to brand it a "foreign terrorist organization" tramples both the U.S. Constitution and state law. The Council on American-Islamic Relations’ (CAIR) Dallas-Fort Worth and Austin chapters filed a federal lawsuit Thursday seeking to overturn Abbott’s proclamation issued earlier in the week.
"This attempt to punish the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization simply because Governor Abbott disagrees with its views is not only contrary to the United States Constitution, but finds no support in any Texas law," the group said in its lawsuit.
Founded in 1994, CAIR operates 25 chapters nationwide,
When Obama administration officials manufactured U.S. intelligence tying Donald Trump to Moscow following his stunning 2016 victory, they had no idea Trump’s own political appointees would help them undermine Trump’s presidency – and his chances of reelection in 2020.
RCI’s review of recently declassified documents and exclusive interviews with former Trump officials reveals for the first time how key members of Trump’s cabinet and other appointees during his first term shrouded the previous administration’s machinations and either deliberately or inadvertently misled the public into thinking the fake Russiagate intelligence was real.

With a little less than a year to go before the 2026 midterm elections, a Marist Poll shows Democrats leading Republicans by a massive +14 points in the generic ballot.
“Democrats currently have a 14-point lead against the Republicans among registered voters nationally on the 2026 generic congressional ballot question,” writes Marist. “This has changed considerably. Since 2022, voters have been divided about which party’s candidate they would support.”
This, even though those polled “place most of the blame for the shutdown on congressional Democrats.” Still, “six in ten [blame] either the President or the GOP in Congress.”
ABC News might soon find itself staring down another expensive defamation lawsuit from President Trump, and honestly, it wouldn't come as a shock. On a recent episode of The View, Joy Behar confidently claimed that it was "obvious" Trump was a pedophile connected with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, implicating him in Epstein’s crimes. This wild accusation came without a shred of evidence tying Trump to Epstein’s criminal activities. In fact, Trump is arguably one of the few prominent figures who did the right thing and severed ties with Epstein years ago, unlike many Democrats who have since been ensnared in the fallout.
Despite the Democrats’ best efforts, the recent dump
A new report from the Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy (ISGAP) makes some uncomfortable claims about a plan by Islamic radicals, especially the so-called Muslim Brotherhood, to systematically enter, infiltrate, and destroy the United States. If this doesn't make Americans sit up and take notice, I don't know what might. Here's a key point: In other words: Inject a poison into America's bloodstream, to devour it from within. Many of the actors, we should note, may well already be here - see Dearborn, Michigan.
