President Donald Trump announced on Friday he is terminating all documents allegedly signed by former President Joe Biden with the autopen.
In a Truth Social post, Trump claimed 92% of documents signed during Biden's presidency were done so with the device.
"The Autopen is not allowed to be used if approval is not specifically given by the President of the United States," Trump wrote. "The Radical Left Lunatics circling Biden around the beautiful Resolute Desk in the Oval Office took the Presidency away from him."

The left has totally succumbed to Trump Derangement Syndrome, so much so that it’s difficult to look at them as serious players in the political arena as they ramble on with one inane analogy after another. (Snip) One such example of this strategy is Trump’s efforts to build a sorely needed White House ballroom. But few have gone down the rabbit hole as deep as CNN contributor Tiffany Cross, who dared to say, “This sounds to me like someone is building a structure that he does not plan on leaving, and that’s something we need to start taking very seriously.”
A George Soros-linked organization is allegedly responsible for funding housing for the Afghan refugee responsible for this Wednesday’s terror attack in D.C. against National Guardsmen.
The shooter in Wednesday’s attack has been identified as Rahmanullah Lakanwal, an Afghan refuge who entered the U.S. after the Biden administration’s catastrophic withdrawal from Afghanistan.
According to The New York Times, Lakanwal lives in Bellingham, Washington, where at one point he and his family had been renting a property from a woman named Kristina Widman.
“Widman said in an interview that the rental had been set up through World Relief, an organization that helps resettle refugees, and that she had had limited contact with the family,”

On Friday’s broadcast of “CNN This Morning,” Rep. Jake Auchincloss (D-MA) stated that Congress should look at vetting for people coming to the country under the asylum or parole systems and there can also be an examination of vetting “during critical moments in someone’s journey.” And stated that “If this administration is going to be tightening the screws on vetting, they should tighten the screws on vetting for purchasing a weapon as well.”
Auchincloss said, “At the national level, if we’re worried about public safety and vetting in regards to this tragedy, yes, we should be looking at vetting for asylum or parole,
Bronze Star recipient Mark Lucas detailed how the U.S. military’s Afghan allies were “untrustworthy” and perpetuated a barbaric culture of pedophilia and abusing women in an interview after it was revealed that the suspect in the Washington, DC, shooting of two members of the National Guard is an Afghan national who previously worked with the CIA.
Rahmanullah Lakanwal, 29, arrived in the United States in 2021 under the Biden administration’s Operation Allies Welcome project in the aftermath of the botched withdrawal from Afghanistan.
The Washington state resident and father of five worked in “a special CIA-backed Afghan Army unit” before leaving his home country, the Associated Press reported.
On the sidelines of a trade and economic discussion with the govt of Kyrgyzstan and the CSTO summit, Russian Federation President Vladimir Putin took questions from media about the Ukraine -vs- Russia conflict.
Now, due to the significance of his remarks, and keeping in mind these responses are in the Russian language, it becomes important for WESTERN READERS to evaluate the translation. Vladimir Putin speaks in direct terms that are often not understood in western translation, the nuance within the translation is important.
That said, I am going through the remarks;
Against the backdrop of two national guards being attacked by an Afghan migrant, President Trump delivers some very strong remarks on the failed immigration policy of Barack Obama and Joe Biden. VIA TRUTH SOCIAL – “This is part of the horrendous airlift from Afghanistan. Hundreds of thousands of people poured into our Country totally unvetted and unchecked. We will fix it but will never forget what Crooked Joe Biden and his Thugs did to our Country! A very Happy Thanksgiving salutation to all of our Great American Citizens and Patriots who have been so nice in allowing our Country to be divided, disrupted, carved up, murdered, beaten, mugged,
Last week US Vice President J.D. Vance pointed out a home truth about the politicians who have run Canada and Britain this last decade or so. They’ve made some terrible calls, especially as regards mass inwards immigration. To start, Vance pointed to my native Canada and noted that it now has the highest foreign-born share of the population of the entire G7. And its living standards have flatlined. Take the start of 2016 as your baseline for GDP per person. Remember, then ignore, that at that time the US was already noticeably wealthier than any other Anglosphere country.
President Trump suggested Thursday the United States will “very soon” take action against alleged Venezuelan drug traffickers on land after weeks of repeated strikes in Caribbean waters.
“In recent weeks, you’ve been working to deter Venezuelan drug traffickers, of which there are many,” Trump told military personnel in remarks on Thanksgiving. “Of course, there aren’t too many coming in by sea anymore.” You probably noticed that people aren’t wanting to be delivering by sea, and we’ll be starting to stop them by land also,” he continued.

In our latest undercover investigation, we exposed an apparent covert effort inside the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) the non-partisan watchdog Congress created to keep the Federal Government honest and efficient -- to sabotage the administration's overhaul of the Department of Health and Human Services. Steven Putansu, a 16-year veteran and current Assistant Director at the GAO, was recorded on camera openly admitting that his colleagues "stole and backed up" vaccine data that the Department of Health and Human Services, now led by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., had allegedly deleted.

Sixteen-year-old Washington state basketball player Frances Staudt has emerged as one of the most forceful young voices challenging the state’s Democratic leadership over policies she argues endanger girls’ sports and punish dissent.
After refusing to compete against a transgender player she described as a “quite obvious” male, Frances found herself under investigation by the Tumwater School District (snip) Governor Ferguson (snip) And what we see is gutless men trying to stifle the voices of young women. I may be 16 years old, but I have way more guts than you’ll ever have.
We're still waiting to see what fruit recent discussions regarding a Russia-Ukraine peace deal might yield, but early on Friday came news of an additional wrinkle: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's top aide, Andriy Yermak, has resigned in the wake of an anti-corruption probe. [snip] Yermak, head of the President's Office, submitted his resignation following searches by the National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) at his premises earlier on Nov. 28, President Volodymyr Zelensky announced.
Yermak has played a key role in the peace negotiations, so his abrupt departure raises obvious questions as to how negotiations may be impacted.
On Thanksgiving, on Thursday, we gave thanks for everything that brings purpose and meaning to our lives. That’s a valuable day of reflection, a day that should matter to every American. But this Friday, commonly known as “Black Friday” for its sometimes wild opening of the Christmas shopping season, is also a day when we have to think about the upcoming cost of keeping all those things we’re thankful for, like our country.
If you’re reading my work here, you may know that I’m not overly optimistic about the immediate future. My readings of history and my sense of the mood of Americans tell me something is coming, some seminal event
President Donald Trump confirmed that he will continue his longstanding tradition of attending the Army-Navy football game during a call with service members on Thanksgiving evening.
A soldier who identified himself as Army Sgt. Major Anderson asked the president who he would bet on if he had to wager on the game.
“That’s a terrible question!” Trump joked. “He’ll get me in so much trouble.”
“But I’ll tell you what I will do, I’ll be going… One of those teams is having a spectacular year…They’re both doing well, but I’ll be at the game, and I’m going to let you know right after the game who’s going to win,” he added.
The economy is growing fast. The stock market is booming. Interest rates have plunged. The unemployment rate remains very low and few workers are being laid off. Consumers have not entered a holiday season with inflation running this low since before Joe Biden was president.
No wonder a record number of Americans say they plan to shop this weekend and sales are expected to grow at a healthy rate.
Economists are forecasting that registers will be ringing up sales at a fast pace this year. The National Retail Federation expects sales in November and December to grow between 3.7 percent and 4.2 percent compared with last year.

to ‘Reexamine’ Every Green Card from
Countries of Concern replies
There will be a “rigorous reexamination” of every Green Card for every alien hailing from countries of concern, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) Director Joseph Edlow announced.
Edlow made the announcement following the tragic shooting of two National Guardsmen in Washington, DC, on Wednesday. One of the victims tragically succumbed to her injuries. The suspect has been identified as Rahmanullah Lakanwal, a 29-year-old Afghan national who worked with the CIA as a member of a partner force in Kandahar, Afghanistan, entering the country under former President Joe Biden’s Operation Allies Welcome program. He resided in Washington State and reportedly drove across the country to carry out his attack.
Friday on CNN’s “News Central,” Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) said that President Donald Trump’s deployment of “military troops in the nation‘s capital or in any city” should be reconsidered because it caused two members of the National Guard to be shot in Washington, D.C. on Wednesday.
Wasserman Schultz said, “This is a deeply concerning situation, but, you know, it’s one that I think we have to — it begs the question, would an individual have flown across the country to target law enforcement officers in Washington, D.C.? And, I mean, the answer is likely no. So why wasn‘t the president‘s first thought,
KYIV — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy fired his top adviser Andriy Yermak on Friday amid a snowballing graft probe.
Yermak has been by the president’s side as the second-most powerful man in Kyiv for years and is a key interlocutor with Ukraine’s Western allies as it resists Russia’s full-scale invasion.
“I am grateful to Andriy for the fact that the Ukrainian position in the negotiation track has always been presented by him exactly as it should be. It has always been a patriotic position. But I want there to be no rumors and speculation,” Zelenskyy said.
Speaking on the Fox News morning show Fox and Friends on Friday morning, U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro stated that the charges against the Afghan national who's alleged to have shot two National Guardsmen in the nation's capital on Wednesday will be upgraded. This follows the death of Specialist Sarah Beckstrom from her wounds.
Rahmanullah Lakanwal will now be facing charges of first-degree murder. [Tweet, video]
The U.S. Attorney said, responding to a question about the escalation in charges:
"Oh, there's no question.
Thanksgiving is America’s forgotten religious holiday. Not simply a holiday, it was meant to be a true holy day. That it is forgotten as such runs counter to the original Thanksgiving. It also runs counter to logic. And it also runs right into those who seek to imbue it with their own cultural causes.
America has many holidays that have nothing to do with “holy days,” from whence the word came. Labor Day is a holiday but not a holy day. Arbor Day is on the calendar but hardly holy — perhaps, unless you are a druid. “Holiday” has become just a secularized term
In the contention over the United States’ peace plan for Ukraine, the Europeans are in their accustomed role — carping from the sidelines.
Not only can the once-great European powers no longer dictate the fate of far-flung parts of the world, they can’t even dictate the end of a war involving a European country whose fate they deem crucial to their own future.
We’re a long way from the British controlling about a quarter of the globe’s territory in the early 20th century; a long way from British and French diplomats, Mark Sykes and François Georges-Picot respectively, drawing the lines in 1916 to divide up the Ottoman Empire;
Our educational institutions have one purpose: To produce young adults with marketable skills. Even the elementary school systems should be focused on this goal. They equip young children with the basics: Reading, writing, and elementary math. In other words, the basics that will enable them to succeed as they move on in life.[snip]An Oregon father is outraged after discovering that his 11-year-old son was slated to receive a state-issued sexual orientation and gender identity survey that asked children to identify their sexual orientation, gender identity, and whether they are transgender.
There’s a particular kind of innocence in believing that generosity will be recognized for what it is. A nation opens its doors, offers a warm meal, provides a safe bed, and assumes the visitor understands the privilege. For decades, America set out the banquet, refilled the bowls, and quietly told itself that this time, surely, the guests would take only what they needed. But people who are constantly fed start to forget who stocked the pantry. They come back with friends. Then relatives. Then demands. And the hosts, too polite to object, keep ladling stew while pretending not to notice the rising strain in their own households.
A federal employee with the Department of Justice landed herself in hot water over her anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement antics in June. Karen Olvera De Leon of Cameron County, Texas, was booked on terrorism charges after she allegedly doxxed an ICE agent following a local raid. This was a livestreamed event, where a commenter hurled vitriol at the federal agents, leading to another, allegedly De Leon, exposing the agent’s identity (via KRGV): [Tweet, video]
"Karen Olvera De Leon was booked on Thursday on charges of terrorism and tampering with or fabricating evidence, Cameron County jail records show.
