Last year, the media and the Democratic Party launched a coordinated assault on Elon Musk after he made a harmless gesture of support to the audience at Trump's second inauguration. Elon Musk was speaking at the event when he told the crowd, “And I just want to say thank you for making it happen. Thank you.” He then extended his right hand from his heart toward the audience, repeated the gesture for those behind him, and added — after placing his hand over his heart — “Thank you. My heart goes out to you. It is thanks to you that the future of civilization is assured, thanks to you.”

Even I, who thinks the worst of him and knows he will give NYC what they so richly deserve, do not feel that this was a German WWII salute. I understand the article is about the lame-stream press' double standard but accusing him is also a double standard.

Trump Ending Automatic Green Cards for
Migrants Marrying U.S. Citizens

Immigration lawyers are warning that federal agencies are increasingly skeptical when migrants claim to have legitimate marriages with Americans. The policy shift comes after President Donald Trump’s deputies began cracking down on rising rates of marriage-related visa fraud by migrants who pay Americans for temporary marriages. While marrying a U.S. citizen has never been a locked-in guarantee that a migrant would be issued a green card, marriages have previously offered a huge boost to a migrant’s request for legal status. But that may be changing as immigration attorneys are finding that U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) are giving such marriages much closer scrutiny than ever before.

WASHINGTON ‒ President Donald Trump addressed mysterious bruises on his hand as he dismissed concerns about his health in a new interview, attributing the noticeable discoloring to his heavy aspirin intake. The 79-year-old Trump, the oldest president to ever take office, also denied falling asleep at meetings, explained why he doesn't exercise and said he underwent a CT scan, not an MRI as he previously claimed, in a defiant interview with the Wall Street Journal on his health. "My health is perfect," he told the newspaper. Here are five takeaways from what the Journal described as an "impromptu phone interview" that came after the newspaper shared

"America is toast if the radical left wins. They will open the floodgates to illegal immigration and fraud. Won’t be America anymore." That's what Elon Musk posted on X on Thursday. (He's probably not wrong.) He added the caption to another social media post that suggested "Elon Musk is reportedly going all-in funding Republicans to help President Trump take back full control in the November midterms." Despite his previous rifts with Donald Trump and other Republicans and talk of starting his own third party earlier this year, it appears as if Musk really is all-in on ensuring the "radical left" is kept at bay

On Thursday, Zohran Mamdani was inaugurated as the Mayor of New York City. As we reported, his "block party" seemed to be a harbinger of things to come and a symbol of his failed radical leftist thought, with no bathrooms and no food. It was the first day, and already his administration was a big fail. The people are already finding out that he isn't going to be what they thought. Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY-14) spoke before Mamdani. But she set the stage for the radical remarks, outlining some of his promises. “New York City has chosen the ambitious pursuit of universal childcare, affordable rents and housing, and clean

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D) pledged to govern the Big Apple as a Democratic Socialist during his inauguration speech and declared he would revive “the era of big government.” After taking the official oath of office with his left hand on a Quran at City Hall early Thursday morning, the newly minted 34-year-old mayor took a ceremonial oath of office from Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) in the afternoon. Mamdani vowed to hold to the radical views he pushed during his campaign against former Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D-NY) and Republican Curtis Sliwa. “We will transform the culture of City Hall from one of no to one of how.

The top legal reporter for Politico.com apparently suggested Tuesday a person can be legally shot for asking questions at the doorsteps of businesses. “At some point, the amateur effort to knock on doors of home daycares intersects with robust stand-your-ground laws,” said a X message from Josh Gerstein, Politico’s “Senior Legal Affairs Reporter.” The threat was likely aimed at independent journalist Nick Shirley, who has precipitated a storm in the mainstream media about large-scale fraud and corruption by ethnic Somali business owners in Minnesota. Many establishment sites, including Politico, have ignored or downplayed the report,

Fewer Americans applied for unemployment benefits last week as layoffs remain low despite a weakening labor market. U.S. applications for jobless claims for the week ending Dec. 27 fell by 16,000 to 199,000 from the previous week’s 215,000, the Labor Department reported Wednesday. Analysts surveyed by the data firm FactSet forecast 208,000 new applications. The weekly report was released a day early due to the New Year’s Day holiday. Applications for unemployment aid are viewed as a proxy for layoffs and are close to a real-time indicator of the health of the job market.

It is absolutely true that Nick Shirley's one-day video blitz investigation of Somali daycares in Minnesota produced insufficient evidence to put anybody in jail. It's even possible that he made a mistake or two, although given what we already know, the preponderance of the evidence says that most of these daycares are shell companies that exist only to fleece the government. It's not like Shirley's video is the only evidence—the US Attorney is actively prosecuting cases, and now citizen journalists around the country are revealing fake Somali daycares. The State of Minnesota has taken the database of daycares offline, and already, legislators in other states are scrambling to hide

WASHINGTON — The US Department of Health and Human Services is freezing all future child care funding to states beyond Minnesota, with President Trump predicting his administration will find massive fraud in California. The review of government funding started in Minnesota but will be expanded nationwide until feds can determine that no taxpayer dollars are being spent fraudulently. “HHS has a clear duty to verify the proper use of taxpayer funds,” spokesman Andrew Nixon said in a statement. “The documentation process exists to rule out fraud and confirm that funds are supporting legitimate child care providers.

Trump shared the move in a post on Wednesday afternoon to followers of his Truth Social account. "We are removing the National Guard from Chicago, Los Angeles, and Portland, despite the fact that CRIME has been greatly reduced by having these great Patriots in those cities,"

Whaddaya know – Donald Trump has told the truth about Jeffrey Epstein. So says the Wall Street Journal, which hasn't exactly been a friendly source for Trump or the administration the past couple of years, especially on the Epstein Files. In fact, their "exclusive" report today springboards off of one of their inglorious moments on this subject – their breathless report on Jeffrey Epstein's birthday book in 2003. The WSJ claimed that Trump had created a message within a sketch of a naked woman, with his signature representing pubic hair. Trump threatened to sue the WSJ for that claim, and strenuously denied ever creating the message

He’s painting the town red. A triumphant Zohran Mamdani took the oath of office to become the Big Apple’s mayor just moments into the New Year — kicking off an uncharted era with a proud socialist at the helm of the nation’s largest city. The 34-year-old Queens state assemblyman was sworn in on a Quran as the city’s 112th mayor — and its second-youngest — by state Attorney General Letitia James on Thursday morning below City Hall Park in a grand, abandoned old subway stop with his wife, artist Rama Duwaji, by his side.

(Snip)Tarlov actually questioned whether Shirley, working mainly on his own, could have genuinely uncovered the full scale of the alleged fraud.

The U.S. Postal Service has updated its rules to clarify that postmarks may not match the date mail was deposited, a shift stemming from network overhauls that could complicate deadlines for tax filings, ballots, and legal documents. The change, which became effective on December 24, adds a new section to the Domestic Mail Manual stating that “… while the presence of a postmark on a mailpiece confirms that the Postal Service was in possession of the mailpiece on the date of the postmark’s inscription, the postmark date does not inherently or necessarily align with the date on which the Postal Service first accepted possession of the mailpiece.”

Host Phil Mattingly said, “Just last month, you said you were seriously concerned about the president’s health. What’s your level of concern after hearing from the president? He says he’s in perfect health.” Reiner said, “Well, I’m mostly concerned that the public really hasn’t been told essentially anything meaningful about the president’s health here. So let’s turn the clock back and look what’s gone on over the last nine months. The president had a physical exam, a comprehensive physical exam

For generations across the South, black-eyed peas have traditionally been served on New Year's Day. The dish is associated with a "mystical and mythical power to bring good luck" in the year ahead, according to writer John Egerton in his book "Southern Food: At Home, On the Road, In History." For years, Cracker Barrel served as a reliable last stop for displaced Southerners trying to uphold a New Year's Day tradition. If black-eyed peas weren't simmering at home, they could be ordered alongside cornbread and country sides.
