Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) is not playing the same political games North Carolina faced during Hurricane Helene when it comes to keeping his state safe ahead of the life-threatening storm ravaging Florida. DeSantis is bracing for a “major hit” from Hurricane Milton by deploying 6,000 Florida National Guardsman and 3,000 National Guardsman from other…
Category 4 Hurricane Milton is closing in on Florida this week. This comes just after Hurricane Helene wreaked devastation in North Carolina and other areas of the southeast. Last week, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas admitted that the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) did not have long-term funding to help the victims of…
The battle for Philadelphia may not be a slam-dunk for Democrats, and local and national officials are worried. They see the numbers—they’re not stupid. The Philadelphia Inquirer decided to get into the trenches in the brawl for the City of Brotherly Love, where they found Democrats have significant problems when it comes to keeping their…
It’s another Biden-Harris fiasco, where their incompetence and inability to do the job is leaving scores of flood-ravaged victims across the southern United States lingering in fear. These people have lost everything. Hundreds are missing, and the death toll has crept up to nearly 200 people. It’s one of the deadliest hurricanes to strike the…
It happened again last night: the debate moderators were atrocious. It was a case where Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) faced off against Norah O’Donnell, Margaret Brennen, and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz. Luckily, Walz was unprepared, awkward, and the inferior candidate on the stage, easily outmaneuvered by the more eloquent, articulate, and unfazed Vance. The Ohio…
In Washington County, Tennessee, a gang of illegal aliens decided to do the unthinkable amid the chaotic conditions that have befallen the area due to Hurricane Helene. They got busted, robbing stranded residents trapped due to heavy rains and catastrophic flooding. Over 100 people have died, with many expected to be without access to water…
Hurricane Helene dissipated over the weekend, but not before smashing into Florida’s Big Bend as a category four storm, inflicting “biblical” damage across the southern United States. After landfall, the heavy rains led to catastrophic flooding that’s killed almost 100 people so far. In the Newport area of Tennessee, about 60 miles outside Knoxville, residents…
The Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committees released an initial, bipartisan report Wednesday morning detailing how the Secret Service failed to protect former President Donald Trump from an assassin’s bullets during a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13. “From planning missteps, to the siloed and flawed communication to the lack of effective coordination between…
The Trump campaign stopped by a local grocery store, Sprankle’s Neighborhood Market in Kittanning, Pennsylvania, this week, where the former president perused the aisles, helped a local woman out with her groceries, and found something damning regarding the business’ stability from one of the owners. Trump was seen picking up some popcorn, which led to an…
There was another one of these ‘big ideas’ conferences last week. The folks behind the All-In podcast, Jason Calacanis, Chamath Palihapitiya, David Sacks, and David Friedberg, all entrepreneurs and venture capitalists, had their three-day summit last week. Former Fox News host Megyn Kelly, who launched her own media project, was invited to speak. During her segment, Calacanis discussed…
Thousands of Hezbollah terrorists, ranging from low level soldiers to leadership, have been severely injured after their pagers blew up Tuesday. Messages were received on the devices and seven seconds later, they exploded. Iran’s ambassador to Lebanon was reportedly injured, raising questions about why the ambassador would be carrying a Hezbollah pager. Hospitals are flooded…
Holy hell: this is what some at The Washington Post thought was a good take in the wake of the second assassination attempt on Donald Trump. The former president dodged a bullet—literally—while golfing at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, over the weekend. Ryan Wesley Routh was hiding in a shrubbery along…
We knew this was coming, folks: everyone and their mother, through numerous agencies, knew about Ryan Wesley Routh, the wannabe Trump assassin who tried to pull a ‘Grassy Knoll’-like attack on Trump over the weekend. Routh hid in a shrubbery along Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, for 12 hours; he had…
There was a second assassination attempt on Donald Trump over the weekend. The would-be assassin Ryan Wesley Routh was purportedly ready to open fire on the former president as he was golfing at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida. Luckily, Secret Service agents doing a security sweep a couple of holes ahead…
I asked yesterday morning whether Kamala Harris’ camp got the ABC News debate questions in advance. The vice president was visibly nervous for the first portion of the debate but got into a groove, especially when she figured out that Donald Trump would take the bait she was chumming. When Trump took it hook, line, and sinker…
It’s been nearly two months since the assassination attempt on Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania. Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, tried to kill the former president with a rifle on July 13, perched atop an unprotected rooftop less than 200 yards from the rally stage. We don’t know why this roof, a glaring security issue, was…
Twenty-three years ago today, millions of Americans woke up to just another day. By the time the sun set across the country on September 11, 2001, skylines would be irreversibly marred, thousands would grapple with searing loss while even more wouldn’t yet know the fate of their loved ones, and stories of everyday heroes forged…
The opportunity was there, and Donald Trump blew it. Last night, he faced off against Kamala Harris, David Muir, and Linsey Davis. The moderators were a mess, which I’ll dive into separately later this morning. It was an expected occurrence, but that’s also unnerving about the former president’s performance. The man had issues containing his cool. Trump…
The Biden-Harris administration has been offering some particularly bad takes on the chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan. During Monday’s press briefing, White House National Security Communications Advisor John Kirby offered a particularly rotten one. “Was anyone ever held accountable by the president directly for what happened with the withdrawal in Afghanistan,” one reported asked. “And if not,…
It’s official: Vice President Kamala Harris’ “honeymoon” is over. According to a new New York Times survey released on Sunday, former President Donald Trump is in the lead ahead of the 2024 election. The NYT/Siena College poll has Trump at 48 percent and Harris at 47 percent among likely voters. These results are similar to those in July,…
