Presidential candidate Nikki Haley attempted to clean up her flubbed Civil War comments by mentioning she had 'black friends growing up' following backlash.
The 2024 hopeful faced a barrage of criticism and hate comments last month for answering a question at a New Hampshire town hall on what the Civil War was about without once mentioning slavery.
She has since walked back her response, saying 'of course' the war was about slavery and suggested that the question was poised by a Democrat 'plant' trying to get the media to attack her.

Former President Donald Trump hit back at President Joe Biden after the president gave a speech looking back on the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot, and attacking Trump and his supporters.
Trump took the stage at a campaign event in Sioux City, Iowa, Friday night and responded to Biden’s event, which took place earlier in the day near Valley Forge, Pennsylvania. In the president’s speech, Biden focused on the January 6 Capitol riot, celebrating the prosecution of hundreds of his chief political rival’s supporters while calling Trump a “loser.”

Three years after a mob stormed the Capitol, a third of Republican voters now believe FBI operatives stoked the January 6 attack, according to remarkable new polling.
A quarter of U.S. adults believe that statement is 'definitely' or 'probably' true, according to a new Washington Post / University of Maryland poll.
The data come as President Joe Biden prepares to hold his first campaign event of the year stressing the democracy issue near Valley Forge, Pennsylvania, in a potential rematch where former President Donald Trump has repeatedly called attention to jailed rioters and said he will pardon a 'large portion' of them.

A lawyer just registered as a foreign agent for work he conducted eight years ago for Ukrainian energy firm Burisma, when Hunter Biden was on the board.
The disclosure raises questions about whether Hunter Biden could face FARA charges in the future that could complicate his father President Joe Biden's re-election run.
The Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) requires law firms and lobbyists to disclose work representing the interests of foreign clients. Attorney John Buretta said he worked on behalf of former Burisma head Mykola Zlochevsky in 2016, during the time the CEO was under investigation by Ukraine and also the U.S. for corruption.

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi just stunned viewers on national television by admitting that she thinks states should decide who’s allowed to run for president of the United States.
This would give states like California the ability to drop former President Trump from the ballot if she got her way. Many feel her actions aren’t about protecting “democracy” but about pure, unadulterated power.
Pelosi told CNN’s Dana Bash on Thursday that although “martyr” Donald Trump could be the beneficiary from the “raw politics” of being removed from state presidential ballots, it’s the “kitchen table issues” that are important to American voters.

Former President Donald Trump on Wednesday met with Sean O’Brien, president of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, as he looks to gain votes from union workers who have previously supported Democrats, including President Joe Biden.
O’Brien met with the former president in a private meeting to discuss “serious issues” to improve the lives of workers in the country as Trump continues his 2024 presidential election campaign. The move to meet with Trump stands in contrast to unions’ typical relationship to politics, heavily favoring Democrats, which Biden’s has sought to tap into, declaring the night before the 2020 election that he would be “the most pro-union president you’ve ever seen.”

A majority of that money, however, came from one business that began renting office space from Trump Tower in 2008 and concluded

Bush’s so-called “Any Willing Worker” policy that sought to import foreign workers for American jobs at the direction of special interest groups.[Snip] Already, the U.S. annually admits more than a million legal immigrants on green cards and another million on temporary work visas to take mostly blue-collar American jobs.

That's good, right? Wrong. The order comes a week after the governor vetoed sub-HB 68, a bill that not only would have banned transgender surgeries on children, but also would have outlawed chemical castration, puberty blockers, and men participating in women's sports. It also included a provision that would allow recourse for women harmed by men participating in their sports.

In 2024, it has never been more important for Republicans to vote early and bank their votes.
Democrats have been encouraging their supporters to vote early for years — especially following the COVID pandemic — helping their candidates come into Election Day with an advantage over Republicans. That’s why in June 2023, the RNC launched the Bank Your Vote campaign to maximize pre-Election Day voting. Co-Chaired by Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) and Sen.

Republican Ohio governor Mike DeWine issued an “emergency” executive order Friday banning child gender-transition surgeries after receiving intense backlash last week for vetoing a bill with a broader but similar mandate.
Dubbed the SAFE Act, the original bill that DeWine rejected would have also prohibited physicians from prescribing cross-sex hormones or puberty-blocking medicine to kids. The legislation also banned men in women’s sports, offering a legal recourse to students forced to play against the opposite sex.
The new order would bar physicians from performing gender-transition surgeries, such as mastectomies and hysterectomies, on kids in Ohio’s hospitals and health-care facilities.

Among the items said to be missing are tapes, CDs, passports and pictures all located inside a safe within the property during a siege on the home in July 2019, shortly after Epstein was arrested.
It comes as speculation continues to swirl that Epstein was working as an agent for Israeli intelligence agency Mossad prior to his suicide while awaiting trial for child sex offences.

It used to be pretty clear.
You had to be caught cheating.
Or doing something so outrageous that it’d get you thrown off campus.
Not anymore.
Today Harvard is an institution that thinks that antisemitism is OK and believes that plagiarism is fine.
Not long ago, a student would have been kicked out for either of these sins.
Today the president has been caught at both.
And the board of the university stuck by her.
Even when she decided to step down this week, both she and her supporters went into full-on “victimhood mode.”

This week, there was an “insurrection” in the California State Capitol in Sacramento.
A group of radical extremists invaded the State Assembly, interrupting the first day of the legislative session and forcing lawmakers to flee the chamber. They continued to occupy the legislature even after the lights were turned off. But eventually, they were allowed to leave peacefully, and there were no arrests at all.The reason: unlike the January 6 protesters in Washington, the California protesters are on the political left. Those who participated in the January 6 event three years ago are still being arrested and prosecuted for the nebulous crime of “obstructing an official proceeding.”

The gist of the bashing is that the visitors are “greedy.” Utterly lacking any self-awareness, those same locals simultaneously demand that the “greedy” visitors give them ever-more money, especially in the form of taxpayer-subsidized housing which the local insiders get for dimes on the dollar.

This is a time to figure out a solution that’s broad and comprehensive.” But when migrants show up on his doorstep, Murphy is shipping them right to New York City.

The Las Vegas felon who hurled himself over a courtroom dais and attacked a female judge earlier this week said he was trying to kill her and blamed his action on a “bad day” while refusing to appear in court to face the new felony charges he was handed. Debora Redden, a 30-year-old, three-time felon, was being sentenced Wednesday by Clark County District Judge Mary Kay Holthus for a conviction for attempted battery with substantial bodily harm. Redden’s attorney had asked Holthus to grant parole for the three-time felon, but she sentenced him to jail due to his violent past and repeated arrests.

New research says that Apple's suppliers including iPhone manufacturer Foxconn have invested $16 billion since 2018, in an increasing plan to move or reshore manufacturing away from over-reliance on China.
Apple and most or all technology firms that have previously been entirely dependent on China, have been working to move away from that reliance, in part because of continued US/China trade tensions. In at least Apple's case, there have also been major delays in production because of China's COVID measures and its problems with power supply.

Harvard may assume the forced resignation of its president, Claudine Gay, has finally ended its month-long scandal over her tenure.
Gay stepped down, remember, amid serious allegations of serial plagiarism --without refuting the charges. She proved either unable or unwilling to discipline those on her campus who were defiantly antisemitic in speech and action.
But Gay's removal is not the end of Harvard's dilemma. Rather, it is the beginning.
In the respective press releases from both Gay and the Harvard Corporation, racial animus was cited as a reason for her removal.
Gay did not even refer to her failure to stop antisemitism on her campus or her own record of blatant plagiarism.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott appears set for a huge victory on the border crisis, as President Joe Biden and Washington Democrats look likely to cave on Republican demands for a crackdown on migrants.
The Republican posted to X on Tuesday, announcing the success of his program to bus illegal migrants to Democrat-led cities.
He said his initiative has amounted to the transfer of nearly 100,000 migrants to cities such as New York, Boston, Denver, and Chicago - where leaders are being forced to find accommodation for them.Those Democrat-led areas bill themselves as 'sanctuary cities' that welcome migrants.
But the New York Times reported that their mayors are so perturbed

Texas has one of the best viewing spots for the upcoming April 4, 2024 total solar eclipse. Unfortunately, that means the Lone Star State will also likely be the busiest observing location in the country that day. Per a report from Space.com, just over a million visitors are predicted to roll into Texas to witness the rare celestial phenomenon, the last to be visible in the U.S. until 2044.The calculation by Michael Zeiler, an eclipse cartographer at GreatAmericanEclipse.com, is based on ArcGIS software, U.S. Bureau of the Census data, and a detailed digital road network for the U.S. The 115-mile-wide path of totality will cross North America

We've seen a lot of anti-Israel freakouts at this point. I think it's safe to say these activists live in their own world, one that doesn't have a lot to do with reality. They think that everyone should bend the knee to them and accede to all their demands however unworkable or bad those demands might be. If they scream loud enough, they think they can succeed by bullying people.
We've seen things from the crazy or concerning to the dangerous.
But I have to say, this new video I just saw is pretty funny. Think anti-Israel Karen, and then you get where this video is going.

For over three years, Monsignor Carlo Maria Viganò, through his videos and messages, has revealed the truth about the narrative of the great deception we are experiencing. Starting from the Great Reset, then passing through Davos, without neglecting any argument concerning the violation of the individual rights of all peoples,[snip]highlighted the worldwide intertwining of the diabolical plan hatched by the globalist elite. The heartfelt appeals of the high Prelate are aimed at strengthening the truth against the “satanic evil”that[snip]is invading the world, to lead it towards a precipice[snip]in the direction of an irreversible moral abyss, as if to say that there is no more religion.

Contrary to concerns from some local leaders, a new study shows a decrease in gun crimes across six of Ohio’s eight largest cities following the implementation of the state’s “constitutional carry” law.[Snip]It focused on crimes involving firearms, verified gunshot-detection alerts, and the number of officers struck by gunfire.[Snip]“This is not to downplay the very real problem of gun violence in our cities,” noted Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost, who commissioned the study. “But the key takeaway here is that we need to focus on criminals, not responsible gun owners.”[Snip]CJR Director Melissa Burek, a Doctor of Criminal Justice, led the research.

Mayor Eric Adams of New York City announced a laughable lawsuit on Thursday, suing 17 different charter bus companies for $700 million. His claim? That they didn't "pay to care for" the illegal immigrants they transported to blue bastions at the behest of Gov. Greg Abbott of Texas. New York City has and will continue to do our part in the asylum seeker crisis. But we can't bear the costs alone — and we won't let those complicit in @GovAbbott's scheme get away with violating our state laws. We’re seeking approximately $700 million from 17 charter bus companies that transported migrants to NYC without paying to care for them.
