Shareholders? The shareholders are Blackrock, Vanguard, and State Street that vote all the shares. American corporations are ruled by the fund oligarchy, not retail shareholders.

It’s not doubling down on stupid. It’s doubling down on ignorance to continue a pointless boycott as the only measure taken to voice your disapproval of their corporate actions. If you’re Vanguard (8.6%), BlackRock (7.2%), or State Street Capital (4.3%), and you want to increase your death grip as the largest shareholders of just about every corporation that matters, which way would you want the stock prices to go? Up or down?

Mental illness continues to escalate among left-wingers, and Tesla has become their latest target. As RedState reported, numerous domestic terror attacks have been carried out recently in protest of Elon Musk and DOGE, with Tesla dealerships suffering firebomb attacks. Some have already been arrested and charged. Those attacks have likely been incited by prominent Democratic Party figures and their press allies, with everyone from Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) to Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) making wink-and-nod suggestions that people go after Tesla as a way to harm Musk. All of this is supposedly being done because the Trump administration has dared to cut back on America's bloated, previously unaccountable bureaucratic state.

Three people accused of destroying Tesla cars and charging stations are facing up to 20 years in prison for “domestic terrorism,” US Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Thursday. “The days of committing crimes without consequence have ended,” Bondi said in a statement. “Let this be a warning: If you join this wave of domestic terrorism against Tesla properties, the Department of Justice will put you behind bars,” she added. The defendants — whose cases are being brought in Colorado, Oregon and South Carolina — are accused of using high-powered weapons and explosives to destroy property belonging to the Elon Musk-owned car company,

Kevin O’Leary was ripped by a fellow CNN guest for touching her during a heated argument over Elon Musk’s GOP donations — and in response the “Shark Tank” star said he “won’t ever do it again.” Tensions boiled over during “CNN NewsNight” on Wednesday as O’Leary and Angela Rye, former executive director and general counsel to the Congressional Black Caucus, traded jabs over the billionaire’s gifts to Republican lawmakers. At one point, O’Leary apparently touched Rye off-camera, as she said: “You don’t have to touch me.”

Before he was stripped of his role as the University of Wisconsin-Madison’s chief diversity officer, LaVar Charleston had been accused of assaulting a police officer and engaging in a decades-long pattern of research misconduct. Now he can add financial mismanagement to his rap sheet. In a letter to university officials last week, the school’s top finance administrator, Rob Cramer, said that Charleston had displayed "poor financial judgment" as head of the Division of Diversity, Equity and Educational Achievement, which became the subject of an internal probe in January after concerns surfaced about the division’s finances.[snip] he doled out over $200,000 in bonuses, "without consultation," to the university DEI staff.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) mocked so-called “greedy” Americans for wanting to keep more of their hard-earned money and wanting less government control over their lives. During an episode on ABC’s The View on Tuesday, Schumer spoke about the recent government spending bill, which President Donald Trump recently signed. As Breitbart News previously reported, Schumer explained that he voted in favor of keeping the government open because a “Republican Senator told Democrats the plan was to ‘decimate the entire federal government.”

President Donald Trump says files related to the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy will be released Tuesday without any redactions, making good on a promise he made during his campaign. Trump told reporters Monday that his administration will be releasing 80,000 files, though it’s not clear how many of those are among the millions of pages of records that have already been made public. “We have a tremendous amount of paper. You’ve got a lot of reading,” Trump said while at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington. He also said he doesn’t believe anything will be redacted from the files.

Staff members with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) entered the U.S. Institute of Peace (USIP) on Monday evening after a standoff. The staffers were accompanied by armed Metropolitan police officers and Kenneth Jackson, the organization’s newly-appointed president. This came after DOGE made several unsuccessful attempts to access the building. In one instance, they went to the building with FBI agents and were still rebuffed. DOGE’s interest in entering USIP’s building came as part of a broader mandate from President Donald Trump to significantly downsize federal agencies while doing away with government bureaucracy as much as possible.

Poor Hunter Biden. First, his meal ticket father leaves office and disappears from public view (for which blessing many of us are breathing a sigh of relief), then his California house burns up, along with a bunch of his "priceless" art. The guy just can't catch a break. On Saturday, we learned that Hunter's woes are worsening. He was facing an uncomfortable deposition in California, but a kindly judge allowed that case to be dismissed as Hunter's too broke to continue. So now the poverty-stricken former First Son has jetted off to Cape Town, South Africa, accompanied by his Secret Service retinue, to suffer from his poverty

A deranged, anti-Elon Musk dad scrawled a swastika on the side of a Cybertruck in Brooklyn in a brazen attack committed right in front of The Post. The lefty loon was so triggered by the $80,000 electric Tesla truck parked on Washington Avenue in Prospect Heights that he double-parked his Subaru – with two car seats in the back – burst out, and defaced the car. The Cybertruck’s owner Avi Ben Hamo, who is Jewish, was stunned. “I feel myself burning inside,” Ben Hamo said. Back in his Subaru, the hateful vandal tried to speed off — but Ben Hamo, who watched the attack from the sidewalk across the street,

Sunny Hostin told her co-hosts Friday on ABC’s “The View” that President Donald Trump’s second term was an “existential crisis.” According to Hostin, Democrats need to stop playing by the rules. When asked about politicians skipping town halls, Hostin said, “It’s very un-American, and it’s cowardly. If you are just, you know, stepping in line the way Republicans generally do behind a candidate that is harming the economy, I mean, you need to listen to the people that put you in office. Instead of being so concerned about maintaining power, why not be more concerned with helping people? That’s the thing that I’m so much more concerned about.”

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer admitted on PBS this week that Democrats intentionally stacked the courts with 235 “progressive judges” in order to stop President Donald Trump “time after time after time.” Since President Trump triumphantly returned to the White House on January 20, 2025, his administration has faced an all-out legal assault — not from Congress or the will of the American people — but from a weaponized judicial branch hijacked by radical leftists. In just under two months, President Trump has been hit with 132 legal challenges, with only two resolved. And now, Chuck Schumer has admitted it all on national television.

Joy Reid argued on Thursday that Canada will never become an American state as President Donald Trump wants because they could beat their southern neighbors in a war. Reid joined Don Lemon on The Don Lemon Show this week and balked at Trump’s continued push for America to absorb Canada. Canadian officials have pushed back on this being an option, but Trump has remained steadfast in his desire. According to Reid, Canada would only become a new American state if the two countries went to war. She made clear her money is on Canada in that showdown. “Grampy Trump, let’s talk. Let’s talk.

Trump once more listed Antony Blinken, Jacob Sullivan, Letitia James, Alvin Bragg, and even Joe Biden, along with his entire corrupt family. Trump’s order declares that these individuals no longer have any business sniffing around classified information.

Homeschool parents would face fines, misdemeanor charges and even jail time if they do not report themselves to local public school officials, under a new proposal from Illinois Democrats.  Parents also would be required to provide public school officials with a “portfolio” of their children’s work at any time, at any interval and frequency, until that portfolio meets the public school’s satisfaction. The bill, dubbed the“HomeschoolAct,” requires  parents to report themselves in writing to local school officials starting in 2026. Parents who do not will be considered truant.

MSNBC analyst Susan del Percio told MSNBC host Alex Witt that Trump was trying to “privatize” student loans.

WASHINGTON — President Trump reacted warmly Friday to a report that the US could be offered “associate membership” in the British Commonwealth. “I Love King Charles. Sounds good to me!” the president wrote on Truth Social, linking to a report by the Sun that a proposal could be made by the monarch when Trump makes a state visit to the UK later this year. The Commonwealth of Nations, established in 1926, has 56 member states, the vast majority of which are former colonies of the British Empire.
