An armed man was shot and killed by the Secret Service in the early hours of the morning after unlawfully entering the secure perimeter at Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago in Florida. The man, in his early 20s, was holding what appeared to be a shotgun and a fuel can as he tried to enter Trump's Palm Beach residence, the Secret Service said. He was neutralized by a deputy from the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office around 1.30am on Sunday. The deceased man's identity has not been released. President Trump had been attending the Governors Dinner in Washington DC on Saturday night.

The armed madman who was shot and killed by the Secret Service after he snuck onto President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate Sunday was reportedly obsessed with the Jeffrey Epstein files — and implored others to “raise awareness” just days before the deadly encounter. Austin Tucker Martin, 21, was gunned down by local Florida police and members of the Secret Service after he brandished his shotgun in a “shooting position” on Trump’s property, authorities said. He was reported missing by his family after he vanished Saturday. His mother, Melissa Martin, made a missing person poster for him, describing the silver Volkswagen he

MINNEAPOLIS — The middle of winter – especially January – is not always kind to restaurant owners. Just ask Gavin Kaysen. "It's usually the slower time of year," Kaysen, whose Soigné Hospitality restaurant group owns several Minneapolis restaurants. "You couple that with really cold weather, that doesn't help, and then you add everything else that has happened to us." (Snip) "Majority of all of my colleagues have seen 30 to 50% decline, you know, 30% probably on the weekends, 50% during the weekdays," he said. "It's a nonsustainable future." Kaysen says his restaurant, Spoon and Stable, lost more than $70,000
Kamala Harris is topping some new polls of Democratic White House contenders, a sign the former vice president and 2024 presidential nominee has staying power despite her defeat to President Trump. It’s a reality that flies in the face of some of the talk after that race, in which Democrats talked about turning the page, with some calling for the party to move on from a stale playbook and to look for new leaders. It all underscores the paradox Democrats are facing in their rebuilding efforts: Which parts of their messaging and leadership do they want to overhaul, and what
The Minneapolis City Council debated the renewal of two liquor licenses on Tuesday, focusing on two hotels allegedly housing federal agents during Operation Metro Surge. In January, protesters descended on both the Depot and the Canopy hotels, believing Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents were staying inside. Some protesters faced off with Minnesota state troopers after an unlawful assembly was declared. Hospitality union members spoke to the council about the license renewals, explaining that some employees from the hotels have expressed fear over ICE agents staying there. "We believe that a liquor license is a privilege and that privilege should be

to fill NYC budget gap if Albany won't

Mayor Zohran Mamdani laid out two potential paths Tuesday to close what he says is a $5.4 billion dollar budget gap in New York City. In one, Albany would raise taxes on the richest New Yorkers. In the other, the City would raise property taxes for the first time since the late 2000s. The City could generate $3.7 billion by raising the property tax by 9.5%, Mamdani said. (Snip) “If we do not go down the first path, the city will be forced down a second, more harmful path. Faced with no other choice…we would have to raise property taxes.
Palantir is relocating its headquarters to Miami from Denver, the company announced Tuesday in a post to social media platform X. The software analytics firm is the latest big business to migrate to South Florida as executives seek to transform the region into a hub for innovation. Florida, which offers a friendlier tax environment, has welcomed a wave of billionaires in recent years. The region is also gaining more executives as California deliberates over a 5% wealth tax on residents with a net worth exceeding $1 billion. Meta Platforms CEO Mark Zuckerberg has reportedly bought a mansion in Florida and
The utterly despicable and mentally ill shooter who murdered his wife and children during a mass shooting event in Rhode Island identified as transgender. The lesson that comes from encouraging mentally ill people to indulge their insanity and to express violent hatred against those who do not affirm their illness is written in the blood of children killed at the high school hockey game. How many transgender shooters does it take to stop leftists from lauding the delusion that one can change one’s biological sex and demand everyone agree? It seems that shooter Robert Dorgan’s wife and children did not
NEW YORK CITY – The state government will help pull New York City out of a financial crisis with a $1.5 billion in support over two years, Gov. Kathy Hochul announced Monday. The announcement comes just one day before Mayor Zohran Mamdani is expected to reveal his preliminary budget, which must address a massive shortfall. Mamdani initially estimated the budget gap was around $12 billion, but recently revised his projection to around $7 billion. The massive sum includes funding for youth programming, sales tax receipts, public health and other priorities yet to be determined, Hochul and Mamdani said. “A strong
PORTLAND, Ore. — A petition to ban hunting in Oregon is picking up steam. Animal rights advocates are fighting to change the law in Oregon, including banning most hunting, fishing and animal research. One of the people leading the charge of getting this petition out there says they have been trying to get this on the ballot for years, getting more and more signatures each time, though he knows it won’t likely pass. Supporters call the proposal the PEACE Act, short for People for the Elimination of Animal Cruelty Exemptions. “We really want to make Oregon the first state to
DENVER — A bill introduced into the Colorado State Senate last week would make Colorado the first state in the U.S. to fully decriminalize prostitution if it became law. Senate Bill 26-097 would require the entire state to decriminalize “commercial sexual activity among consenting adults,” both for people who buy sex and who would sell it. This would be unique in the U.S., as the only other states with any form of legal prostitution, Maine and Nevada, still have certain rules around it. In Nevada, for instance, prostitution is only legal within licensed houses of prostitution, or brothels, and some
It’s about time for another check-in on the Democrat 2028 presidential field. Kamala Harris, the former vice president who made news by “changing the names of her KamalaHQ social media accounts to “headquarters,” using “headquarters_67” on X, where she already had 1.1 million followers, an apparent nod to the viral “6-7” slang term used by Gen Alpha and Gen Z.” No doubt, my single digit aged nephews will be very impressed. Unfortunately for Harris, they won’t be able to vote in 2028. As a female, half-African American, she is the only presidential candidate who has any sizable black support, which

Who Cares If Democrats Boycott Trump’s SOTU?

A few days ago, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) gave America some very welcome news. During a press conference he said that his Democratic members had two choices with regard to President Trump‘s upcoming State of the Union address: “The two options that are in front of us, in our house, is either attend with silent defiance, or to not attend.” This will definitely be a win-win for everyone who tunes in Tuesday evening to hear what the President has to say about his first-year accomplishments and future plans for the country.
Brazilian social media influencer Bianca Dias died on Thursday following complications from plastic surgery.
The 27-year-old social media star reportedly suffered a pulmonary embolism — a risk tied to major cosmetic procedures — after experiencing shortness of breath while recovering from a recent surgery at her family’s house near Sao Paulo, TMZ reported.
Dias was rushed to hospital, but doctors were unable to save her.
The bank admitted on Friday that “more than 50 Trump accounts” were cut off in February 2021, weeks after the January 6, 2021, riot at the Capitol, according to the New York Times.
The revelation by JPMorgan came after Trump “and the Trump Organization” filed a lawsuit in January against JPMorgan Chase and its CEO, Jamie Dimon, for having debanked the president, according to the outlet.
Per the outlet, accounts that JPMorgan reportedly “debanked” were accounts “for Trump hotels, housing developments and retail shops” in several states, along with “Trump’s personal private banking relationship that handled his inheritance:”

Request for Him to Lie in State in the Capitol 28 replies
Speaker of the House Mike Johnson announced on Friday that he was denying a request from the family of former Democratic presidential candidate and civil rights activist Jesse Jackson to allow Jackson to lie in state in the Capitol rotunda.
There was an immediate reaction from many on the left. (X) However, Johnson was absolutely right to deny the Jackson family's request to allow his body to lie in state in the Capitol rotunda.
There are very strict protocols governing who can lie in state. Even former Vice President Dick Cheney was denied that honor. Generally, the honor is reserved for presidents, noted military leaders, and select government officials.

Shovel Snow — But They Must Show Two

New York City officials are looking to hire 1,000 emergency snow shovelers as a major winter storm moves toward the region.
Mayor Zohran Mamdani said during a press conference on Saturday that the city is preparing for what could be its most significant snowfall in nearly a decade.
“For those who want to do more to help their neighbors and earn some extra cash, you too can become an emergency snow shoveler,” Mamdani said.
”Just show up at your local sanitation garage between 8 am and 1 pm tomorrow with your paperwork,” he added. Workers will be transported by vans and buses beginning Sunday night to clear bus stops, crosswalks, fire hydrants,
"This is AI slop. It is impossible that Newsom actually said this," social scientist Charles Murray posted in response to California Gov. Gavin Newsom's latest ham-fisted attempt at connecting with voters outside his state. "Right?" Murray added, and you could practically hear him begging for it not to be true.
"Holy God in heaven please tell me that my black brothers in Christ can look at the world's stupidest white man and understand that he is a bad person," my old X acquaintance Political Math added.
My Townhall colleague Amy Curtis noted, "It's just like when Joe Biden said, 'Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids.'"
The California political machine is officially in panic mode.
With the June 2026 primary fast approaching, a shocking new reality is setting in for the Golden State’s Democrat establishment: the very voting system they championed could shut them out of the Governor’s mansion completely.
Unlike most states that hold partisan primaries, California dumps all candidates from all parties into one single primary election.
The only rule?
The top two vote-getters advance to the general election
Party affiliation doesn’t matter
That means:
If Democrats split their vote among multiple candidates, and Republicans consolidate behind just one or two, it is entirely possible for two Republicans to advance to the November runoff, shutting Democrats out completely.
Biden Briefed and Approved Mar-a-Lago Search
21 replies
A new FBI memo puts President Joe Biden in the thick of the Mar-a-Lago search of President Donald Trump's home.
The memo puts an end to any rumors or partisan talking points; internal emails and memos outline briefings, coordination, and presidential approval before federal agents entered Trump's home.
In January 2022, the National Archives and Records Administration received 15 boxes of presidential materials from Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate. Staff members found documents bearing classified markings, and requested additional materials from Trump's team.
Archivist officials believed more records remained at the property. The dispute moved from paperwork to potential criminal exposure within a matter of months.

Abigail Spanberger, the new governor of Virginia, who has been tapped to deliver the Democrats’ State of the Union reply Tuesday night, is the perfect avatar for her party’s deception.
With her long blond bob, minimalist makeup, pinched face and brisk air, she looks like the sort of competent working mom you’d encounter at school drop-off in any affluent suburb. In other words, she seems like somebody you instinctively trust.
But don’t be fooled by appearances. Spanberger is an expert at subterfuge, having spent eight years as an undercover CIA case officer, aka a spy, under Barack Obama and John Brennan, in the era when Democrats turned national security back on itself.
Former Vice President Mike Pence just reminded the MAGA movement what a duplicitous traitor he is — and always has been.
On Friday afternoon, Justices John Roberts, Amy Coney Barrett, and Neil Gorsuch joined the court’s three liberal members to strike down President Trump’s signature tariff policy, a central tenet of his 2024 campaign.
Pence, who is widely despised across the conservative grassroots, took to the X platform to celebrate the decision:
Today’s 6-3 ruling by the Supreme Court is a Victory for the American People and a Win for the Separation of Powers enshrined in the Constitution of the United States.
Trump Calls on Netflix to Fire Susan Rice
18 replies
This week, former Obama advisor and current Netflix board member Susan Rice pulled back the curtain on what Democrats plan to do once they’re back in power, and it was pretty fascist.
On Preet Bharara’s podcast, Obama’s scandal-scarred former U.N. ambassador promised that any corporation, law firm, university, or media outlet that “took a knee to Trump” will be targeted when the left is back in charge. “It’s not gonna end well for them,” she warned, casting basic engagement with the Trump administration as a kind of original sin that must be punished.
And now President Donald Trump wants accountability.
On Saturday, Trump called on Netflix to fire Rice.
Black homeowners are fuming over Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s threat that he’ll raise their property taxes by nearly 10% — with some telling The Post it could force them out of New York City.
“Mayor Zohran Mamdani you are out of your goddamn mind,” Cambria Heights resident James Johnson seethed.
Critics like Johnson, 35, a Democratic City Council candidate and an activist for the predominantly black and working class Queens neighborhood, argued the proposed tax hike was a whiplash-inducing departure from Hizzoner’s campaign promise that only the ultra wealthy would see their taxes go up under his administration.
