‘Frolicking’ Gavin Newsom ripped by
White House as he whines about being blocked
from Davos clubhouse event
Posted By: Ida Lou Pino, 1/21/2026 4:28:34 PM
The White House called California Gov. Gavin Newsom a nobody who has been “frolicking around Switzerland,” in response to claims the Trump administration shut him out of an event at the World Economic Forum in Davos. Newsom’s press office had said the White House and State Department denied the governor entry to a “fireside chat” Wednesday hosted by Fortune that the democrat was invited to speak at. The White House fired back at Newsom’s claim, saying the governor is not a priority for them, a Trump spokeswoman exclusively told The Post.

For a year, I worked with the homeless in New York City. Over the course of that year, I encountered more than 200 unhoused people. Only three ended up in permanent housing. Our team consisted of a social worker (me), two case managers, and a nurse. Our nurse carried Narcan. We coordinated with shelters, hospitals and city agencies.
Anti-Israel activist and former Columbia grad student Mahmoud Khalil is set to be deported to Algeria — bringing an end to a drawn-out court battle over his immigration status, federal officials said. The Syrian-born activist, who was arrested by ICE early last year, is slated to be booted from the US after the Trump administration accused him of committing fraud on his green card application. “It looks like he’ll go to Algeria. That’s what the thought is right now,” Homeland Security assistant secretary, Tricia McLaughlin, told NewsNation’s “Katie Pavlich Tonight” Wednesday.
Several emergency declarations have already been issued as a massive winter storm barrels toward more than 35 states, putting more than 200 million people in its path and threatening “considerable disruption” to New York with up to a foot of snow. Texas, North Carolina, and South Carolina were the first to issue preemptive emergency declarations after the National Weather Service warned that “nearly everyone east of the Rockies” will be affected by snow, ice, or cold from Friday into early next week. The potentially historic winter storm, dubbed Winter Storm Fern, is expected to span more than 2,000 miles

Bundle up — or else! A life-threatening Arctic blast is set to strike the eastern US in the coming days, plunging temperatures below zero and into the single digits as experts warn people to stay inside or risk hypothermia. The bone-chilling cold front is expected to peak later this week, with Chicago, parts of Michigan and upstate New York among the hardest hit, forecasters said.

WASHINGTON — The repressive Iranian regime is likely in its “final days and weeks,” German Chancellor Friedrich Merz dramatically predicted Tuesday — as shocking images emerged of thousands killed in a bloody crackdown by Tehran. “If a regime can only keep itself in power by force, then it’s effectively at the end. I believe we are now seeing the final days and weeks of this regime,” Merz told reporters during a trip to India. “In any case, it has no legitimacy through elections in the population. The population is now rising up against this regime.”

could cost up to $15B a year 21 replies
Gov. Kathy Hochul rolled out broad strokes of a multi-billion-dollar plan Thursday to offer “free” child care for all two-year-olds in New York City, while expanding pre-K and early child care programs in the rest of the Empire State — with no tax increases, at least this year. The Big Apple already has universal Pre-K and 3K programs, and Hochul said she will partner with new Mayor Zohran Mamdani to age down and fully fund the program to cover 2-year-olds. “This is getting on a roadmap to continue what has already started in the city with four-year-olds and three-year-olds,” Hochul said on MS-NOW Thursday morning previewing the proposal.
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey doubled down on his expletive-laden response to the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good by an ICE agent, after his comments were slammed as inflammatory and divisive.,,The lefty leader, who demanded immigration officers “get the f–k out” of the city, sarcastically apologized if his language “offended their Disney princess ears.” Frey launched into a vulgar attack on the feds at a press conference Wednesday, just hours after a masked agent shot and killed the 37-year-old mother of three in her car.
Thousands of Iranians continued to flood the streets Tuesday in the country’s largest protest over the crumbling economy – after the announcement of a minuscule stimulus payment only fanned the flames. The raucous nationwide demonstrations carried on for the 10th day after government officials announced Monday that about 80 million eligible citizens will receive 10 million Iranian rials a month — worth about $7.70 at real exchange rates.
Michael Reagan, the eldest son of former President Ronald Reagan and actress Jane Wyman, died at his home in Los Angeles on Sunday, his late father’s foundation announced in a statement. Reagan, 80, dedicated himself to upholding his father’s legacy in his work as a conservative author and radio talk show host. He spent much of his public life defending and promoting the Reagan administration, which was largely devoted to scaling back the government’s involvement in daily life and bringing an end to the Cold War.
Former Vice President Kamala Harris on Saturday evening condemned the Trump administration’s capture of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro and his wife, calling the operation both “unlawful” and “unwise.”
In a lengthy post on X, Harris acknowledged that Maduro is a “brutal” and “illegitimate” dictator but said that President Donald Trump’s actions in Venezuela “do not make America safer, stronger, or more affordable.”
Silicon Valley, the innovation hub of the world and home to some of the most successful tech companies, could soon turn into a ghost town — at least that’s the dire warning from billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman. “It would be catastrophic to California,” Ackman told The Post. “Every successful founder, entrepreneur would leave. Literally no one would stay.” Already, the ultra-rich are making plans to flee the Golden State over a proposed one-time 5% wealth tax on residents worth more than $1 billion, multiple sources confirmed to The Post last week.

Don Lemon Over Anti-ICE Protest In Minnesota Church 16 replies
A federal magistrate judge refused to sign a complaint charging independent journalist Don Lemon in connection with a protest inside a church in St. Paul on Sunday, multiple sources familiar with the proceedings told CBS News. "The Attorney General is enraged at the magistrate's decision," said a source familiar with the matter. A different source stressed that the process is not over, and the Justice Department could find other avenues to charge Lemon.
I warned you! It’s kind of hilarious, but a lot of folks don’t realize that the current number one candidate to win the Democratic nomination in 2028 is… not Gavin Hairstyle… not Alfred E. Buttigieg… not Jupiter B. Pritzker… not even Josh “Yeah Right, Democrats Are Gonna Nominate A Jewish Guy Who Won’t Apologize For It” Shapiro. It’s Kamala Harris. No, really, I’m serious.
“That’s crazy talk, Kurt. Why are you so crazy with your talking?”
I’m not crazy. The Democrats aren’t crazy, either – they are stupid and evil.[snip] She comes off as stupid and annoying, which is a direct consequence of her being stupid and annoying.

As lawyered-up apologies go, this one's a real stinker.
When I got a look at what the new CNN talking head, 25-year-old Cameron Kasky, said out loud in front of God, Scott Jennings, the CNN audience, and President Donald Trump's lawyers, I said on my Adult in the Room Podcast livestream these words, "He's gonna get sued." But his "apology" is arguably worse.
On CNN, Kasky claimed twice that Donald Trump was part of a "sex trafficking network," alluding to the Jeffrey Epstein case.
When asked to clarify, Kasky claimed that it was a "provable" fact
The Duke and the Dork

— Once upon a time, there was a good-looking, articulate, young boy named David Duke who attended a conservative elementary school in New Orleans. In Junior High, as an eighth-grade project, he was irresistibly attracted to the subject of segregation. He then attended a military school in Georgia and “by the time he graduated was already a member in good standing of the Ku Klux Klan”––ultimately becoming a grand wizard of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan.
In his self-published 1988 autobiography, My Awakening: A Path to Racial Understanding, Duke stated: “We [Whites] desire to live in our own neighborhoods, go to our own schools,
On Friday, Vanessa Beardsley is inviting her community to come hang out with cats and drink coffee at her Minnesota business, Catzen Coffee — but they won't be able to spend any money. Catzen is participating in a January 23rd economic shutdown, in which activists are calling on Minnesotans to close their businesses, not report to work or school, and refrain from shopping in protest of ICE's presence in the state. Beardsley said she "immediately" knew she wanted to "stand in solidarity with our fellow businesses and our state," but didn't want to completely close her doors. "We are not doing

Two Twin Cities activists were arrested Thursday morning for their role in leading a mob that disrupted a worship service at a St. Paul church. Attorney General Pam Bondi announced the arrests of Nekima Levy Armstrong, a civil rights attorney, activist, and former Minneapolis NAACP president, as well as Chauntyll Allen, a St. Paul Public Schools board member and Black Lives Matter Twin Cities founder. Bondi said in a post on X that the women paid key roles in organizing the "coordinated attack" on Cities Church. "Listen loud and clear: We do not tolerate attacks on freedom of worship," Bondi wrote.
The U.S. was one of the first countries to join the World Health Organization (WHO) when it was created in 1948 as part of the United Nations. But on Jan. 22, 2026, it officially withdrew from the global health group.
The U.S. has historically been the largest funder to the WHO, through both its assessed and voluntary contributions, so the departure is poised to disrupt both global and domestic health. “This is one of the most penny-wise and billion-dollar-foolish moves,” says Michael Osterholm, director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota.
Call it Game of . . . Microphones? "60 Minutes" correspondents Sharyn Alfonsi and Scott Pelley's vocal pushback against CBS News editor in chief Bari Weiss's moves to shake up the outlet have put the duo at risk of being fired, The Post has learned. Both veteran correspondents could get the boot as Weiss, who has run the network since October, works to revamp "60 Minutes," said sources with knowledge of the matter -- who the ongoing intrigue to "Game of Thrones" - style drama. "It's going to be a war," a network insider told the post.
Two officers who were pushed out of the military during President Donald Trump's first year back in the White House have launched new missions this week: running for Congress as Democrats.
A retired U.S. Space Force colonel, who was forced out of the military under the Trump administration's ban on transgender service members, announced a run for Congress in Northern Virginia.
And a senior Navy official removed from her post last year by War Secretary Pete Hegseth launched a congressional bid in South Carolina. Their candidacies highlight a growing political backlash to Trump-era military policies, as former officers removed from service look to re-enter public life through Congress.
Back when Attorney General Keith Ellison was a mere Congressman instead of the Attorney General of my state, he passed only one bill during his 12 years in that august body. Of all the bills he sponsored, he was able to successfully pass only one. It must have been really important to him to put it all on the line to convince his colleagues to go along with him, right? After all, it wasn't to rename a post office or anything. It was to actually change a policy intended to prevent money laundering.
He had to be pretty passionate and persuasive.
So what was that bill?
Federal authorities have arrested two anti-ICE agitators after a mob stormed a church service in St. Paul, Minnesota, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Thursday. Bondi named Nekima Levy Armstrong and Chauntyll Louisa Allen as the suspects. FBI Director Kash Patel says the pair are charged with violating the FACE Act, which prohibits interfering with the exercise of religion at a place of worship. "Minutes ago at my direction, HSI and FBI agents executed an arrest in Minnesota. So far, we have arrested Nekima Levy Armstrong, who allegedly played a key role in organizing the coordinated attack on Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota," Bondi wrote on X.
