His stock in MAGA World is taking off like a Starship.
Billionaire tech titan Elon Musk is now President-elect Donald Trump’s closest confidant, sources are telling The Post.
The relationship is so close, one source spilled, that Trump, 78, has been running nearly every cabinet pick by Musk — despite having a whole transition team at his beck and call. The former president ultimately has the final decision, but thoroughly enjoys Musk’s company and insight while compiling his second administration.

U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said Wednesday that the Biden administration will allow Ukraine to use American-supplied antipersonnel land mines to help fight off Russian forces.
Speaking to reporters during a trip to Laos, he said the shift in policy follows changing tactics by the Russians.
Austin said Russian ground troops are leading the movement on the battlefield, rather than forces more protected in armored carriers, so Ukraine has “a need for things that can help slow down that effort on the part of the Russians.”
“The land mines that we would look to provide them would be land mines that are not persistent,

When Donald Trump shocked the world by winning office in 2016, I was still laboring away among the lefties in corporate America and not yet rescued by PJ Media. Thus, I was subjected daily to the bitter inanities of that political persuasion. Naturally, everything the newly elected president did was the Worst Thing Ever. Then as now, lefties loved to disparage Trump's cabinet picks and other nominees as unqualified and inferior. When he named school choice advocate Betsy DeVos as U.S. Department of Education secretary, for example, my co-workers fumed that under the Trump administration, "experience was clearly not required to hold a high office."

"The censorship cartel must be dismantled," Brendan Carr declared two days before President-elect Donald Trump picked him to chair the Federal Communications Commission. Trump described Carr as "a warrior for Free Speech."
Carr's plans for "reining in Big Tech" understandably appeal to Trump, who has long complained that the leading social media platforms are biased against him. But Carr's agenda is blatantly inconsistent with conservative principles, including limited government, free markets, freedom of speech, and opposition to lawless regulation.

We knew that Democrats and swampy Republicans would never just sit back and allow Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) to be confirmed as Attorney General for Donald Trump's second administration without a knock-down, drag-out fight, and the shenanigans in the effort to derail the nomination are ramping up. The New York Times reported Tuesday morning that 24 files with "damaging testimony" about Gaetz were obtained by a "hacker," but that so far the hacker has not publicly released any of the information.

Losing an election is a bit like going through the five stages of grief, and Democrats have yet to reach the acceptance stage. That means they still think their opinions matter on what should and shouldn't happen in the incoming Trump administration. They also think their outrage means something.
So what are they mad about now? According to reports, Donald Trump is planning to recall retired military officials so they can be court-martialed for the failures of the deadly Afghanistan withdrawal. The news immediately sent the press and some former generals into an apoplectic rage.

On Friday, we wrote about how "The View" co-host Whoopi Goldberg used her television platform to accuse an at-the-time unnamed bakery of political discrimination after she attempted to order 48 desserts ahead of her birthday celebration, only to be told that they couldn't commit to making them due to equipment issues. “Now, I should tell you," she claimed during last Wednesday's episode, "Charlotte Russe [the dessert] has no political leanings, and the place that made these refused to make them for me."
“They said that their ovens had gone down, all kinds of stuff, but folks went and got them anyway, which is why I’m not telling you who made them,"

President-Elect Trump recently announced his intention to create a Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) that will be led by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy. This will be an external initiative to identify ways to improve the economy, efficiency, and hopefully the effectiveness of the federal government from an organizational and operational perspective. Stated differently, it seems to be an expedited and expanded Grace Commission type effort with a reporting date of July 4, 2026, which is America’s 250th birthday.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau admitted that his country made mistakes regarding immigration in recent years.
Trudeau posted videos in both English and French explaining the mistakes announcing the changes.
“Immigration. Let’s talk about it. In the last two years, our population’s grown fast…and increasingly, bad actors like fake colleges and big chain corporations have been exploiting our immigration system for their own interests."
“We’re doing something major,” he continued. “We’re reducing the numbers of immigrants that will come to Canada for the next three years.”
“Today, I’m going to let you in on what happened, where we made some mistakes, and why we’re taking this big turn,” he explained.

Nikki Haley has blasted lefty MSNBC “Morning Joe” hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski for sitting down with President-elect Donald Trump despite years of viciously criticizing him — suggesting they only did so to boost ratings.
Haley, a former Republican presidential candidate, laid into Scarborough and Brzezinski after they revealed on air Monday they had a face-to-face with Trump at Mar-a-Lago in a bid to “restart communications.”
“Let’s be clear, Joe and Mika didn’t suddenly see the light, they saw their ratings,” the former US ambassador to the United Nations wrote on X on Monday.
“They realized they needed Trump for their survival.”

Deep blue New York and New Jersey saw the largest shifts nationwide toward President-elect Donald Trump in the 2024 election, according to a top analyst.
Dave Wasserman, a senior editor and elections analyst with the nonpartisan Cook Political Report, found an 11.5% swing toward Trump in the Empire State and a similarly impressive 10.1% movement in the Republican’s favor in the Garden State compared to the 45th president’s 2020 results.
Florida (9.8%), Massachusetts (8.7%), California (8.4%), Texas (8.3%), Mississippi (7.7%), Rhode Island (7.0%), Tennessee (6.5%), and Illinois (6.4%) rounded out the top ten.

Megyn Kelly excoriated MSNBC “Morning Joe” hosts and Donald Trump detractors Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski as “dishonest jokes” after the pair revealed on their show Monday morning they met with the president-elect in Florida.
“Go f–k yourselves,” the conservative podcast host said in her message to the lefty broadcast couple. “Go f–k yourselves, you dishonest jokes of faux journalists.” “What an absurd farce that was,” she said in response to the two telling viewers they had a “personal” sit-down with Trump after reaching out to him.
The two have faced stinging criticism among commentators on the left and right considering Scarborough, 61, and Brzezinski, 57,
