Polling released by Pew Research on Friday shows that 70 percent of Americans are very or somewhat confident that the transition to the Trump administration will go smoothly. Similarly, a majority of Americans say they have a positive evaluation of Trump’s post-election conduct.

You'd be hard pushed to describe Elon Musk or his straight-talking South African father Errol as particularly emotional men.
Yet earlier this year, father and son, who spectacularly fell out when Elon was 'a super-Leftie liberal' (his 78-year-old dad's words), shared a hug for the first time in many years.
The embrace, which happened in March at a party to mark the first successful test flight of Elon's rocket Starship, took place in front of several hundred of the tech billionaire's staff at his space exploration company SpaceX in Boca Chica, Texas.
Former NBC journo Brian Williams appeared on the Seth Meyers show this week and suggested that Democrats have completely lost the working class, which is true, and that it happened because Democrats kept gaslighting the public which was insulting.
He points to the way Democrats kept insisting that the economy was great while prices kept rising to ridiculous levels. He mentions the fact that the border was completely overrun while Democrats insisted that it was under control.
He cites other examples, but it’s all the same theme.
Yale University law professor Samuel Moyn admitted on Friday that the legal efforts to stop President-elect Donald Trump over the past several years have failed and only made him stronger.
Moyn made the declaration in a New York Times guest essay, adding that liberals need to shed the strategy of trying to use the law to stop Trump during his second term.
"The yearslong effort to vanquish Donald Trump in court was a dismal failure," the professor wrote.The Times published Moyn’s essay on the same day that Judge Juan Merchan granted Trump's request to file a motion to dismiss the charges in New York v. Trump and removed
Sebastian Gorka has been nominated to serve as Donald Trump's senior director for counterterrorism.
The announcement was made by the president-elect on Friday night, saying he had more than 30 years of national security experience.
Gorka, 54, is a conservative commentator who spent less than a year in Trump's first White House term.'Since 2015, Dr. Gorka has been a tireless advocate for the America First Agenda and the MAGA Movement,' the president-elect wrote.
'Dr. Gorka is a legal immigrant to the United States, with more than 30 years of National Security experience,' Trump added.
Martin Makary has been chosen by Trump to be commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
A plurality of Americans say their Thanksgiving plans are affected by price increases, the latest weekly survey from the Economist/YouGov found.
The survey, taken November 17-19, 2024, asked respondents, “Have your Thanksgiving plans for this year been affected by price increases?” A plurality across the board, 37 percent, said “yes,” their Thanksgiving plans have been affected by price increases. Another 36 percent said their plans have not been affected, and another eight percent said they are not sure.A plurality of Republicans, 47 percent, said their plans are affected by price increases, and a plurality of independents, 35 percent, said the same. Three in ten Democrats, 29 percent, also admitted
President-Elect Donald Trump nominated Russ Vought on Friday to return as director to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB).
Trump’s selection of Vought will likely ensure his campaign promise will be carried out of purging the federal bureaucracy — or “deep state,” as he calls it — of rogue and corrupt actors. The OMB is a significant department that oversees the implementation of a president’s vision across the Executive Branch, and through it, Trump has the power to axe agency funding that will likely try to operate outside the scope of his agenda. “Russ knows exactly how to dismantle the Deep State and end Weaponized Government, and he will
The most disgraced media news network could soon be under conservative management if the world’s richest man turns his sights on it.
As Jim Hoft previously reported, MSNBC’s ratings have completely collapsed since President Trump’s historic victory in the 2024 elections.
For example, Andrea Mitchell is down 39.7%, Joy Reid’s Reidout is down 54.6%, All-in w/ Chris Hayes is down 47.2%. Alex Wagner Tonight is down 53.6%, and Lawrence O’Donnell is down 60.6%. On top of this, several of the network’s biggest ‘stars‘ are facing massive pay cuts as a result of the falling ratings.
President-elect Donald Trump selected Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer (R-Ore.) on Friday to serve as his secretary of labor.
“Lori has worked tirelessly with both Business and Labor to build America’s workforce, and support the hardworking men and women of America,” Trump said in his announcement.
(Photo) “I look forward to working with her to create tremendous opportunity for America Worker, to expand Training and Apprenticeships, to grow wages and improve working conditions, to bring back our Manufacturing jobs,” he added.

Melania Trump announced her first major hire for her return as first lady, naming a longtime Trump loyalist as her chief of staff.
Hayley Harrison, who worked in the East Wing during the first Donald Trump administration and joined the Trumps in Florida after they left the White House, was named to the position.
Harrison, along with her husband William 'Beau' Harrison, are Trump White House staffers who joined the first couple in Mar-a-Lago for their post-presidency life. Hayley and Beau traveled on Marine One with the Trumps from the White House on January 20th, 2021.
Federal funding for the nation’s largest abortion provider could be on the chopping block under the direction of Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy and the newly created Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
In a joint op-ed in the Wall Street Journal published on Wednesday, Musk and Ramaswamy laid out their plans to cut federal overspending and to return power to the “people we elect [to] run the government” rather than unelected bureaucrats. Part of this plan involves slashing millions in funding awarded to “progressive groups like Planned Parenthood,” they wrote.
Oklahoma Republican Senator Markwayne Mullin has blocked the promotion of the "last US soldier out of Afghanistan" to get his fourth star and become commander of US Army Europe. Lieutenant General Christopher Donahue is currently the commanding general of the Army's XVIII Airborne Corps and once and future Fort Bragg, North Carolina. Tellingly, his was the only one of nearly 1,000 military promotions not approved as the Senate recessed for Thanksgiving. Someone familiar with the affair confirmed Mullins removing Donahue from the promotion list was directly related to Donahue's role in Afghanistan.

Former FBI Director Andrew McCabe said the bureau would be endangered if Kash Patel, a former aide to President-elect Trump, is nominated and confirmed to lead the agency.
“No part of the FBI’s mission is safe with Kash Patel in any position of leadership in the FBI, and certainly not in the Deputy Director’s job,” McCabe told CNN’s Kaitlan Collins on Thursday evening, adding that “The scope of authority is enormous.” “If you enter into that position with nothing more than a desire to disrupt and destroy the organization, there is a lot of damage someone like Kash Patel could do,” he said.
Former President Clinton suggested Democrats need to find a better way to relate to people, as the party searches for answers amid Republicans securing control of the House, Senate and White House.
“Politics is the only business in which you can prove your authenticity by not knowing anything. You know, and I think that’s a problem, and we’ll pay for it unless we get over it, but that’s a problem for the Democrats too. We have to learn to talk to people in ways that they can relate to that explains that,” Clinton said in an interview airing this weekend on MSNBC’s “The Saturday Show with Jonathan Capehart.”
Former President Bill Clinton bemoaned the presence of “zillions of new websites” in a Thursday interview with MSNBC host Jonathan Capehart, saying Democrats were “not even being heard” during the 2024 presidential campaign.
Former President Donald Trump secured the 270 electoral votes necessary to win the presidency early Nov. 6, while Republicans picked up four seats in the Senate and are projected to hold the House of Representatives. Clinton said Democrats were “not even being heard” in rural areas, saying he “tried to help.”“Politics is the only business in which you can prove your authenticity by not knowing anything. You know?
Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) suggested in a recent interview that the DOJ staff is worried it will become a “law firm” for President-elect Trump during his second stint in the White House. His claim came shortly after Trump tapped former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi to lead the DOJ following former Rep. Matt Gaetz’s (R-Fla.) withdrawal from consideration. “So, she’s really presiding over the bureaucracy,” Raskin, the ranking member of the House Oversight Committee, told MSNBC’s “Alex Wagner Tonight” in an interview Thursday. “That is where she will be the key transmission belt between Donald Trump’s orders and then making the bureaucracy move.”
Senate Republicans have once again enabled RINO Mitch McConnell, gifting him the chairmanships of the Senate Rules Committee and the powerful Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense for the 119th Congress.
Despite concerns over McConnell’s mental acuity, his new roles position him to obstruct President Trump’s conservative agenda from within.
McConnell will now chair both the Senate Rules Committee and the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense—roles that could give him significant influence over key legislative priorities.
RINO McConnell wasted no time declaring his intentions.
Brittany Patterson lives in a rural part of Georgia with her four kids. Her husband is a superintendent at a school in Montana and is away much of the time. Last month, Patterson had to take one of her children to the doctor's office. She left her 10-year-old son Soren (he's nearly 11) at home with her father, the boy's grandfather.
At some point, Soren decided to go for a walk to a local gas station where he knew his best friend's grandmother was working. He didn't ask permission, he just went. Someone saw him walking along the road and called police.
Elon Musk hinted he might explore buying MSNBC on Friday, days after it was reported the network would be spun off from NBC News and potentially sold by Comcast.
Donald Trump Jr. shared a meme on Friday afternoon on X/Twitter claiming MSNBC was up for sale.
He tagged Musk and commented, “Hey @elonmusk I have the funniest idea ever!!!”
The Tesla and SpaceX CEO replied, “How much does it cost?” After the exchange went viral, Musk commented, “The most entertaining outcome, especially if ironic, is most likely.”
The nomination of former Florida AG Pam Bondi for the position of U.S. Attorney General is a big mistake; not for the corrupt background of Bondi that we presume President Trump is not aware of, but rather for the background of Pam Bondi the Deep Swamp is almost certainly aware of.
Within the background story of state AG corruption and unlawful activity, Pam Bondi is very easily leveraged, blackmailed and controlled.
I presume at this writing that President Donald Trump is completely unaware of what Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi did during her time in office.
J6 Shocker: Phone companies dispute FBI
testimony on pipe bombs suspect, key lawmaker reveals 18 replies
testimony on pipe bombs suspect, key lawmaker reveals 18 replies
9Cellular carriers have told Congress they possess intact phone usage data from the vicinity where two pipe bombs were planted during the Jan. 6 incident, directly disputing FBI testimony that agents couldn't identify a suspect because the phone data was corrupted, a key House chairman tells Just the News. The revelations from Rep. Barry Loudermilk, R-Ga., the chairman of the House Administration oversight subcommittee, adds new intrigue to a debate that has gripped Washington for nearly four years: Why can't the FBI with so much evidence and manpower identify the suspect who planted the explosive devices at the Democrat and Republican Party headquarters hours before the Capitol was breached.
MSNBC slashed star anchor Rachel Maddow’s annual salary by $5 million as the left-leaning network continues to reel from parent company Comcast’s decision to spin off its struggling cable properties, according to a report.
Maddow — who rakes in $30 million a year for hosting “The Rachel Maddow Show” just one day a week on Mondays — renegotiated for a $25 million salary for the next five years, the Ankler reported on Thursday.
“This is a difficult time and they needed to keep her,” one executive told the news site. “No one else can do what she does. You can’t build a brand like it overnight.”
Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski sported glum looks as they returned to their Manhattan penthouse after MSNBC reportedly slashed fellow star Rachel Maddow's salary amid sagging ratings.
The pair's secret Mar-a-Lago meeting with Donald Trump has resulted in viewers abandoning the liberal network and critics accusing them of hypocrisy, even though they dismissed the controversy on their show Tuesday.
Their careers could be in flux as parent company Comcast looks set to 'spin-off' MSNBC amid radical changes which led the co-hosts to joke they could lose that very penthouse earlier this week.
A mentally challenged President Joe Biden turned 82 years old this week, a much-diminished man from his heyday as a Democratic Party Senate stalwart in the last century. But one part of his character is undimmed by the passage of the years: His legendary spite and gleeful willingness to betray his political foes.
Knowing this, is he now about to set off a third world war to settle an election score with newly re-elected President Donald Trump, who Biden still calls an “existential threat” to America?
We’re talking of course of Biden’s inexplicably dangerous decision to encourage Ukraine to use long-range U.S. missiles against Russian territory, which has already prompted a response
