Exclusive: Want to beat the stock market?
Just copy Congress! Politicians' trades
perform twice as well as market average
and Nancy Pelosi's portfolio has grown

Investors dedicate countless hours to solving the mystery of how to beat the stock market - and many lose millions of dollars in the process. But the answer might be simple: Just copy Congress. A tool which copies trades made by members of Congress and their families has gained nearly 20 percent this year – performing twice as well as the stock market average of eight to ten percent. And a separate tool which is dedicated to tracking Nancy Pelosi's investments reveals her portfolio has returned a remarkable 50 percent in the last 12 months, vastly outperforming the 17 percent gains of the benchmark S&P500 index of America's top companies.

The Biden/Harris team is so bad at so many things that sometimes it's hard to believe that these are the people we have in office now, supposedly in charge. But when they have difficulty with even basic things like holidays, you know we are in big trouble.
Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff posted a picture of himself and Vice President Kamala Harris lighting the first candle of a menorah. The tweet has since been deleted, but you can still see what he wrote:
Tucker Carlson dropped episode 48 of his show on X: The Tucker Carlson Encounter: Kid Rock
Singer Kid Rock is a staunch Trump supporter. He told Tucker that Trump is the greatest president we’ve ever had.
“He had this country firing on all cylinders while he was in office,” Kid Rock said of Trump.
Kid Rock called Trump “the toughest son of a b**** on earth.” Kid Rock weighed in on how Trump is handling the indictments.
MSNBC’s Mika Brzezinski grilled Hunter Biden’s attorney, Abbe Lowell, on the president’s son’s new charges.
Hunter was indicted in California by a grand jury of nine counts related to his alleged failure to pay over $1 million worth of taxes over a four-year period. Hunter is charged with three felonies and six misdemeanors including failure to pay taxes and failure to file taxes. The indictment lays out Hunter’s business dealings with Ukrainian energy firm Burisma Holdings, a Romanian oligarch previously thought to be Gabriel Popoviciu and Chinese infrastructure company CEFC.
On Monday, CBS Mornings joined ABC and NBC with a hair-on-fire warning for President Biden that if he continued to support Israel and oppose Hamas, he risked losing the Muslim vote and possibly losing the 2024 election. Of course, the source of CBS’s moral cowardice in standing up to the terrorist organization was the fear that Democrats could lose the key state of Michigan and former President Trump could become president again.
Co-anchor Tony Dokoupil kicked off the network’s kvetching by warning that “The latest CBS News poll, in fact, finds most Americans do not approve of President Biden's handling
Chris Wray’s FBI, along with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) and Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger’s office, released a report in June that concluded that they “did not uncover any violations” during their investigation of the late-night ballot counting at The State Farm Center in Atlanta, Georgia on Election Day November 3, 2020.
According to the report, “Teams of investigators from the FBI, GBI, and Georgia SOS conducted independent and simultaneous interviews of Fulton County elections workers who were involved in the processing and scanning of absentee ballots at State Farm Arena on Election Night on November 3, 2020.
Argentine President Javier Milei used his first executive action in the top office on Sunday to dramatically rearrange the federal executive branch, reducing the number of cabinet-level ministries from 18 to nine.
Many of the ministries eliminated were folded into new offices, suggesting that their functions will continue with a much smaller office and reduced staff. Three ministries – the General Ministry, the Office of Media and Communications, and the Legal and Technical Office – were elevated to cabinet level. Milei put the General Ministry in the hands of his sister and campaign fixture Karina, which required the signing of a separate executive order to undo limitations on appointing
President Biden referred to the presidential helicopter Marine One as “Air Force Helicopter One” Monday — while claiming that Ronald Reagan sent the chopper to take him from Delaware to the DC-area Walter Reed military hospital when Biden had a brain aneurysm in the 1980s.
The 81-year-old’s anecdote is, like other biographical details he’s shared in public remarks, not supported by his own autobiography — or by Reagan’s daily presidential diary.
“President Reagan was nice enough to send Air Force Helicopter One to take me down, but it couldn’t fly,” Biden told firefighters during a day-trip to Philadelphia, using an incorrect name for the aircraft.
Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian said on Monday that Iran and Israel have only one thing in common: neither believes in a “two-state solution” for the Palestinians.
Other Iranian officials jumped in to clarify that Tehran believes all of Israel should be given to the Palestinians, annihilating the Jewish state.
Amirabdollahian told a forum in Doha devoted to the Israel-Hamas war that a state of “Palestine” should be created via referendum, with “only descendants of those who lived there prior to 1948 being permitted to vote.”
Former President Donald Trump has a double-digit lead over President Joe Biden in the key swing state of Michigan, the latest CNN Poll found.
The survey showed Trump leading Biden nationally by eight points, 39 percent to Biden’s 31 percent, in a race that includes independent candidates. That gap, however, only grows in individual states such as Michigan, where Trump is now leading Biden by ten points — 50 percent to Biden’s 40 percent. Another ten percent said they would not support either candidate.

I'll start this with my typical poll story advisory: We're a ways out from the election yet, and it's a poll, so always take everything with a grain of salt. But I think this poll is instructive as to the general momentum moving toward former President Donald Trump and away from incumbent President Joe Biden at this point. Plus, the polls are starting to be redundant, with each finding similar things. So that gives them a bit more merit.
First, let's start with the Real Clear Politics numbers as of Dec. 11. The RCP average has him up by 2.2. Check out the red ahead in the past month.
Hunter Biden's lawyer filed a motion to dismiss felony gun charges against him Monday, invoking the 2nd Amendment just days after the president's son got slapped with a nine-count indictment for alleged tax crimes.
Attorney Abbe Lowell, who is forcefully confronting prosecutors' arguments in both cases, made the filing in federal court in Delaware, where Hunter is accused of lying on a form when purchasing a Colt Cobra revolver in 2018 – at a time when he has written he was abusing crack cocaine and other substances.
He cited recent court rulings on gun ownership including a recent Appeals Court decision striking down prohibitions on prohibitions on drug users possessing firearms.
Hunter Biden lawyer Abbe Lowell said he was stunned by his client's indictment last week on tax charges – saying prosecutors refused his pleas to get a meeting and accused them of bowing to outside political pressure.
Lowell was inside the Wilmington courtroom when an earlier plea deal collapsed that would have dispensed with two misdemeanor tax charges and avoided a separate gun charge through a 'diversion' agreement.
On Monday, he fumed about a new indictment brought by Special Counsel David Weiss that has him facing nine counts – while also reviving a skein of damaging information about blowing vast amounts of cash

More than 500 Harvard faculty members supported University President Claudine Gay in a letter to the school's board Sunday, following intense blowback from a congressional hearing about the rise in antisemitism on campus, where Gay failed to clearly state whether calls for the genocide of Jews violated the Ivy League school's rules. The Harvard Corporation and the Harvard Board of Overseers, the university's second-highest governing body, met Sunday amid mounting pressure from donors and lawmakers to remove Gay from her post.
After the past week's Congressional hearings, the presidents of Harvard University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and the University of Pennsylvania are being exposed to an amount of publicity and scrutiny they're not used to and likely wish would go away. As we reported, the trio claimed that calls for genocide against Jews needed to be placed into context before deciding whether they violated student codes of conduct.
The backlash was swift, and so was the backpedaling. UPenn's Liz Magill wasn't able to keep her job, though, and Harvard's Claudine Gay might not be far behind.
Gay has already had a rough tenure, as investigative journalist Chris Rufo writes:
The Biden administration made two virtue-signaling proclamations at last week’s COP28 conference in Dubai it says will help save the planet from climate change.
The policies aren’t likely to change the planet’s temperature by even one-tenth of a degree, but they might just destroy the 21st-century American industrial economy as we know it.
First, Team Biden announced it will stop production of all new coal plants in the United States.
This comes on the heels of President Biden’s Environmental Protection Agency saying this year it would impose new power-plant emission regulations that are virtually impossible for coal plants to comply with.
The bottom line: no more coal. Period.
Old hybrid vehicles can come with massive bills when their batteries die, as an Arizona man recently found out.
Lucas Turner was driving his 2014 Infiniti hybrid when its check engine light made its annoying appearance on the scene, according to KPHO-TV.
Not good, but with fewer than 70,000 miles on the vehicle, he was not expecting the bill would be a whopper.

Thousands of conservative-leaning Washington residents fled the deep blue state for neigboring Idaho, voter data published by the Gem State shows. Data published by the Idaho Secretary of State’s office shows that out of the nearly 119,000 people who recently moved to the state, 65% registered as Republicans, compared to just 12% registering as Democrats. The data, which was reviewed by Fox News Digital, show that out of the roughly 20,000 Americans who moved from Washington state to Idaho, 62% registered as Republicans, compared to 12% as Democrats, 24% as unaffiliated and 2% as "other."
Longtime Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) filed for reelection just two days after a stinging electoral loss in Houston's mayoral race and before the 6 p.m. deadline on Monday to file.
Jackson Lee lost the mayoral runoff election on Saturday to another longtime Texas politician, Democratic state Sen. John Whitmire, who will helm the nation's fourth-largest city. The race had gone to a runoff after the pair of candidates advanced from the November all-party primary.
A Texas high school basketball player attacked his coach in a parking lot after he was benched for unsportsmanlike conduct during a game earlier that night.
Jevin Allen, 17, and his brother Jarrick Allen, 22, who also allegedly participated in the beating, were arrested Dec. 5 for the assault that left the coach with injuries to his head, neck, face and arms, authorities said. The coach, who was not identified by name, told the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office that Jevin was benched during the away game “due to his behavior toward an opposing team player” — a disciplinary action that “infuriated” the teen and his family.

A biological male who identifies as a “trans woman” shared a changing room with girls ages eight to 16 at a swimming event earlier this month, according to a report from the Toronto Sun.
Reportedly, the Swimming Canada-sanctioned event occurred in Barrie, Canada on Dec. 1. The male, Nicholas Cepeda, goes by “Melody Wiseheart” and is reportedly 50 years old. He’s been competing against women since 2019.
“We have no idea why it is allowed,” a parent told the outlet. “We know it’s not fair to the girls who are training at their sport and some of whom are hoping for scholarships.”
Following precise IDF and ISA intelligence, the IAF killed the new commander of Hamas’ Shuja'iyya Battalion, Emad Krikae.
The previous commander of the Hamas battalion had already been killed by the IDF earlier in the war.
Since 2019, Krikae had been the Deputy Commander of Hamas’ Shuja'iyya Battalion. He was previously responsible for anti-tank missile training in the Gaza City Brigade.
Kirikae was also part of anti-tank missile fire and terrorist raids carried out inside Israeli territory. Following the elimination of the commander of Hamas’ Shuja'iyya Battalion during the war, Krikae temporarily assumed the position of battalion commander before also being killed by the IDF.
A group of "pro-Palestine" protestors — read: those who are "demanding" a ceasefire that would benefit Hamas and give the Iran-backed terrorists a chance at surviving to launch more October 7-level attacks on innocent Israelis — occupied the atrium of the Hart Senate Office Building just steps from the U.S. Capitol on Monday morning. Their tantrum caused authorities to close the building to the public, allowing only senators and staff to enter the building. [Video]
Demonstrators carried banners that claimed "AID TO ISRAEL = BOMBING PALESTINIANS," a creative interpretation of reality that ignores the fact that Hamas terrorists are using Gazans as human shields
A Texas woman who sued the state to get an abortion for her high-risk pregnancy has left the state to have the procedure, her lawyers have said.
Kate Cox, 31, sought an abortion after her foetus was diagnosed with trisomy 18, a potentially fatal condition that doctors said threatened her fertility.
A lower court granted permission for an abortion, but the Texas Supreme Court put that decision on hold on Friday.
Texas has one of the strictest abortion bans in the country. Abortions in the state are prohibited from the point of conception except in rare cases where the life of the expectant mother is under threat.
