Trump Defense Secretary Nominee Pete Hegseth’s mother apologized to her son immediately after sending him an emotional email in 2018 accusing him of mistreating his ex-wife in the midst of their difficult divorce, according to an email viewed Saturday by Breitbart News. In the follow-up email, sent on May 1, 2018, Penelope Hegseth apologized for sending an email the evening before out of emotion and frustration, saying she should know better. She added that the divorce had been difficult and frustrating for her and that she had felt desperate.

It's time to flush out all the Democrats who dumped their wife for new ones, especially BiteMe Diaper's case.

When Clinton was caught fooling around with the help, the Dems told us repeatedly that is was just about sex. Now they are singing a different tune.

This shouldn't be given any more publicity than it already has, but now it's necessary to confirm, once again, that the New York Times is worse than the fish wrapper discarded in the street along with all of New York City's usual trash. Disgusting is too mild a word for this Papa Oscar Sierra "journalist" responsible for this. Has she never heard of The Golden Rule?

Watergate Prosecutor Wine-Banks: ‘Thrilled’
Biden Pardoned Hunter, Should Pardon ‘Himself’ Next

Former prosecutor Jill Wine-Banks, one of the prosecutors during the Watergate scandal, said Sunday on MSNBC’s “Prime” that she was “thrilled” President Joe Biden pardoned his son Hunter Biden. Host Jonathan Capehart said, “Your reactions to President Biden pardoning his son?” Wine-Banks said, “I’m relieved and thrilled that he did it, this was one of the cases that called out clemency. Hunter Biden first of all would not ever be prosecuted for the gun crime, but for his last name. Second of all, he was addicted and that was a cause of his actions, he has now been sober

President Joe Biden pardoned his son Hunter despite the White House saying over and over he would not do it. The pardon includes charges Hunter faced or might have faced from January 1, 2014, through December 1, 2024. Yes, ten years. Absolute insanity. That means anything else that pops up in that time period doesn’t count. Hunter cannot face any charges. Hunter pleaded guilty to tax evasion. He was going to face sentencing on December 16 for lying on a federal form by saying he was not using drugs or addicted to drugs when trying to buy a gun. Biden wrote in a press release: From the day I took

Of all the nominations made by incoming President Donald Trump, few are more important than naming Kash Patel to lead the FBI. The bureau has become a den of corruption focused on protecting itself and the Democratic Party. From targeting parents at school board meetings to raiding Mar-a-Lago, an overhaul is needed, and accountability must be brought to those who weaponized the agency. Patel, who is more than qualified for the position, is just the man to accomplish that. He was instrumental in uncovering the Russian collusion hoax and will not pull any punches to "protect the shield." Naturally, that's making all the right people upset.

Why won’t this man just go away? Former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), chief medical advisor to the president, and face of the U.S. disastrous COVID response Dr. Anthony Fauci still refuses to leave the stage. His latest paper, "HIV/AIDS and COVID-19: Shared Lessons from Two Pandemics," published November 27 and written with researcher Gregory Folkers, is full of debunked claims and avoidance of his own accountability for the harmful mistakes made by the government when the pandemic hit.

Democrat fundraisers are ticked off after Vice President Kamala Harris (D) lost the election to Donald Trump, according to veteran Democrat strategist James Carville. During Thursday’s episode of “Politics War Room,” Carville criticized Harris’s campaign, saying, “The resistance is going to have trouble raising money. These fundraisers are burnt,” the Hill reported Saturday. “They’re really p* now, and the damage that the 2024 campaign has done, the damage that this decade has done to the Democratic brand is almost unfathomable, almost unfathomable,” he continued:

President Joe Biden allowed himself to cover up his own apparent role in his son Hunter’s influence peddling by issuing a pardon Sunday evening that extended back through 2014, including Hunter’s corrupt role in Ukraine. While President Biden focused on his son’s conviction for gun crimes, and his son responded with a statement about addiction, the reality is that the pardon covers more serious conduct: selling U.S. foreign policy for monetary gain. The pardon covers actions between January 1, 2014, and December 1, 2024. Hunter Biden’s appointment to the board of the corrupt Ukrainian gas company Burisma was announced in May 2014.

President Joe Biden lied for years about whether he would pardon his son, Hunter Biden, for his crimes — even telling David Muir of ABC News in an exclusive interview in Normandy, France, in June that he had “ruled out” a pardon. As ABC News reported at the time: President Joe Biden said he would not pardon his son Hunter amid an ongoing felony gun trial during a wide-ranging exclusive interview with ABC News anchor David Muir at the Normandy American Cemetery on the 80th anniversary of D-Day. Muir asked Biden on Thursday if he would accept the outcome of his son’s trial in Wilmington, Delaware, to which the president said, “Yes.

The 2024 election is over. But Kamala Harris’ fundraising emails keep coming — and sound as urgent as ever. “Even a quick donation of $50 is enough to help us in this fight,” said one email sent two weeks after Election Day. “And with only hours left to hit our goal today, NOW is the best time to rush your support.” Another recent message carried the simple subject line: “Please do not click away.” The fundraising appeals may be necessary: Harris’ operation ended with around $20 million in debt, according to two people familiar with her campaign finances and granted anonymity to speak freely.

Apple released a pro-family ad reflecting on the joys of fatherhood to kick off the Christmas season after Jaguar’s recent ad was accused of peddling wokeness: The ad is shot mainly through the eyes of a loving father who struggles with hearing loss. It traces back over memories of his young daughter throughout her childhood, but they are muffled in sound because of his handicap. In present day while the family is exchanging gifts around the Christmas tree, his daughter, whom he watched grow up, receives a guitar and begins to sing and play “Our House” by Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young.

“Our leader forever” was a slogan one often saw in Syria during the era of President Hafez al-Assad, father of today’s Syrian president. The prospect that the dour, stern Syrian leader would live forever was a source of dark humor for many of my Syrian friends when I lived and worked in Aleppo in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Hafez al-Assad died in June 2000. He wasn’t immortal after all. His regime, however, lives on under the leadership of his son Bashar al-Assad. There were moments when the Bashar regime’s survival looked in doubt. When the so-called Arab Spring rolled

It was the summer of 2019 and President Trump was about to embark on a state visit to the tiny Nordic country of Denmark. Both parties were readying themselves for bilateral talks, but that was before President Trump floated one of his famous spontaneous trial balloons. Trump said that he had had a conversation with the Danish prime minister, stating that the U.S. might be interested in purchasing the island of Greenland. He said that the concept came up and he said that he would be interested in the purchase from a strategic point of view. This did not sit well with the Danish prime minister, Mette Frederiksen, who has been described

Donald Trump is on course to assemble the richest cabinet in American history, with a number of billionaires sending its total net worth soaring over $9 billion - not even including Elon Musk. While Musk will serve in an unofficial capacity focused on slashing government waste and therefore will not need Senate approval, those that will are set to break records. The previous mark was unsurprisingly set by Trump in 2016 when his first cabinet boasted a combined net worth of $6 billion.

As we reported, President-elect Donald Trump has now nominated Kash Patel for the spot of FBI Director. Patel is a big favorite of Trump supporters and it's also going to be hard to argue that he isn't qualified. He's an attorney who has handled many trials, and served as Chief of Staff at the Department of Defense, Deputy Director of National Intelligence, and Senior Director for Counterterrorism at the National Security Council. How do you know it's a good pick? All the right people are upset. They know that Patel is not just going to be a status quo, ordinary Republican, and that he's going to clean things up.

Democrats are looking to the governors of blue states as both a line of defense against the incoming Trump administration and a promising bench for the party in 2028. Governors are seen as leading the charge of Democratic resistance as the GOP gets ready to take control of Congress and the White House next year: California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office promised to “Trump-proof” state laws, and Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker has pledged to be a “warrior” against controversial policies.

The mother and daughter duo have been spending a lot of quality time together during the Thanksgiving holiday, including a shopping spree in the historic downtown. The duo only spent about 12 minutes outside on Saturday but it was long enough for Ashley to bend down and pick up some items from the beach, most likely the sea shells that are scattered around the island.

The Kushner Companies founder “is a tremendous business leader, philanthropist, and dealmaker,” Trump wrote, adding he “will be a strong advocate representing our Country and its interests.” (Photos) “Congratulations to Charlie, his wonderful wife Seryl, their 4 children, and 14 grandchildren, Trump continued.“His son, Jared, worked closely with me in the White House, in particular on Operation Warp Speed, Criminal Justice Reform, and the Abraham Accords,” Trump wrote. “Together, we will strengthen America’s partnership with France,

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg is kissing up to President-elect Donald Trump, trying to worm his way into the MAGA sphere and pretend he is enthusiastic for reform. But as a victim of devastating Facebook censorship warned, Zuckerberg is not to be trusted, especially since he has yet to apologize to and restore the data for multiple users whose lives were transformed by online censorship. When Zuckerberg issued a semi-apologetic letter and made a phone call to Trump over the summer, many conservatives, and Donald Trump himself, were delighted. Since then, Facebook censorship — including election-interfering censorship — continued unabated. Like many a careful businessman before him

There is an old saying that when the United States sneezes, Canada catches a cold. Recent events in Canada, however, suggest that the US should immunize itself from a dangerously virulent virus that has swept across the nation — nowhere more so than in Montreal: Open Jew hatred. According to the Toronto Sun, last year, Montreal has endured the most antisemitic hate crimes of any city in North America. Indeed, since the October 7, 2023 Hamas massacre in Israel, antisemitic incidents in Canada have increased by an astounding 670%. Canadian Jews — a miniscule 1.4% of the nation’s population — were the victims of 70% of religious-based

Multiple sources report that a military coup may be underway in Damascus. The Republican Guard is reportedly engaged in combat with a division of the Syrian Army. Ordinarily, the Republican Guard is the regime protection force, but the situation is so confused in Syria that it is hard to tell. Speculation has identified the coup leader as a member of Assad's inner circle. Take that for what it's worth. Syrian state television has just gone off the air. This is just another in a series of signs that the Bashar al-Assad regime is in its last days.

Pro-immigration Democrats are finally waking up to realize their anti-border security policies cost them the election after a report found that President-elect Donald Trump’s tough-on-immigration campaign drove swing voters to cast their ballot for him. According to BluePrint2024, a pro-Democrat polling firm, the left is increasingly shifting their blame to the Biden-Harris Administration for dropping the ball on the ongoing immigration crisis it created. Lobbyists have accused lame-duck President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, and Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas of pushing a pro-migration agenda on the country despite millions of Americans rejecting it.

Romanians vote in a parliamentary election on Sunday in which the far right is expected to gain from uncertainty over whether the shock result in a presidential election will stand. Days after far-right politician Calin Georgescu won most votes in the presidential election first round, an opinion poll this week showed the hard-right Alliance for Uniting Romanians (AUR) had a narrow lead over the governing Social Democrats. Gains by far-right groupings in Sunday's parliamentary vote after a campaign dominated by voters' concerns over budget problems and the cost of living could upend Romania's pro-Western orientation and undermine support for Ukraine, political analysts said.
