Hegseth saying this is all a stunt, that the media is gobbling it up because they hate Trump more than they love the country, and that Massie is just one disgruntled congressman.

It’s beyond just a coincidence, it’s now a glaring trend: President Trump continues to fire every high profile woman in his orbit. The latest casualty is his chief of staff, Susie Wiles, replaced by MAGA warrior and bulldog, Stephen Miller.

Before that, it was DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, Greece Ambassador Kimberly Guilfoyle, Attorney General Pam Bondi, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer.

Actor, comedian and YouTuber Russel Brand has been sentenced to 10 and a half years behind bars in a London courtroom today. Four women submitted victim impact statements to the court after last week’s convictions. One victim chose to appear in person, behind a curtain, to personally read the impact Brand’s assault had on her over the years. Brand sat, emotionless, holding a white rosary listening to the words of the women describing the “never-ending” pain and fear they say they’ve experienced since the assaults.”

Is this for real?  That is what everyone is asking after President Trump “announced” on his Truth Social that he has offered the White House Press Secretary job to UFC CEO Dana White.  In response, White posted a photo of himself behind the podium in the briefing room with the caption, “On to the next chapter.”  Just a few hours before this recording, White was in London for a UFC fight news conference and was asked about the new job offer; that’s when the CEO said he was hopping on plane to D.C. to meet with the President, cl...

This week a jury found 77-year-old Robert Kessler guilty of murdering a Florida woman and dumping her severed body parts into McKay Bay back in 2021. Sentencing happened immediately after the verdict, and that’s when Kessler heard from his victim’s family and then the judge himself who said he had never, in his forty year career, seen a crime like this one. He said the murder was horrible enough, but admonished Kessler for going “full Hannibal Lecter” on 47-year-old Stephanie Crone-Overholts, cutting her body up in at least seven different pieces. Kessler was sentenced to life in prison with an...

Her then 14-year-old boyfriend was ultimately charged with her murder, and this week, a jury found now 18-year-old Raymond Wright Jr. guilty of second degree murder. Wright testified in his own defense at trial, admitting to pushing Humphrey in the river, but stopping short of admitting to her murder.

Americans are waking up to what’s being described as a “blue tsunami’ after last night’s election results.  Democrats handily won control of both the House and Senate, in a sweeping takeover of Congress.  There were multiple “firsts” throughout the nation: several first black governors, the first black female governor, first muslim elected to the Senate, first Latino governors, and the margins weren’t even close in most races.  President Trump took to truth social as the results continued to pour in last night, blaming an unlikely source for the sweep:  Fox News.
