Cruz made the remarks on his podcast “Verdict,” with co-host Ben Ferguson, while discussing Feinstein’s recent absence from the U.S. Senate as she battles shingles.“Shingles, by all accounts is a horribly painful disease,” Cruz said. “I’m grateful I haven’t had it.(Snip) Cruz then explained why Democrats are anxiously trying to push Feinstein out of office while she recovers.

Former President Donald Trump on Tuesday released his plan to address homelessness in the U.S., which he says has contributed to the decline of America’s once-great cities.“The homeless have no right to turn every park and sidewalk into a place for them to squat and do drugs,” he said in a video statement. “Americans should not have to step over piles of needles and waste as they walk down a street in a beautiful city -- at least, a once-beautiful city. Because they've changed so much over the last ten years.”
The 45th president argued that the majority should not have to “suffer”

WASHINGTON— A federal watchdog is investigating whether the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration under chief Anne Milgram improperly awarded millions of dollars in no-bid contracts to hire her past associates, people familiar with the probe told The Associated Press.
Among the spending under scrutiny by the Justice Department’s Office of Inspector General is $4.7 million for “strategic planning and communication” and other contracts that were used to hire people Milgram knew from her days as New Jersey’s attorney general and as a New York University law professor – at costs far exceeding pay for government officials.

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) released his proposal to raise the US debt ceiling by $1.5 trillion.
“Now that we’ve introduced a clear plan for a responsible debt limit increase, [Biden and Democrats] have no more excuse, and refuse to negotiate,” McCarthy said on Wednesday.
“House Republicans have a plan. The Senate does not. And the President is ignoring the debt crisis,” he added. Video: (Tweet/Video) McCarthy’s plan will destroy most of Joe Biden’s agenda.
The Speaker’s plan will eliminate Biden’s unconstitutional student loan bailout plan and slash the funds set aside for the army of IRS agents.

Former President Donald Trump took to Truth Social Wednesday for a barrage of posts, but one in particular addressed the issue of Ron DeSantis and his presidential plans—if any—for 2024. Trump flat-out told him that he was stomping the Florida Governor in the polls and that he simply shouldn’t run in this cycle: (Snip) Ron DeSantis is a young man who is not doing well against me in the polls, to put it mildly. I believe that if he decides to run for President, which will only hurt and somewhat divide the Republican Party, which we don’t need,

In 2020, Democratic member of the House Intelligence Committee, Rep. Eric Swalwell, confirmed his past relationship with a woman named Fang Fang (or Christine Fang), who was suspected of being a Chinese intelligence operative.
On Wednesday, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene hilariously roasted Swalwell after he spoke during a congressional hearing, saying, “That was quite entertaining from someone that had a sexual relationship with a Chinese spy. And everyone knows it!”

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) will get to question a former prosecutor of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office after a judge ruled Wednesday that a subpoena Jordan issued to the prosecutor was enforceable.
U.S. District Judge Mary Kay Vyskocil wrote that the subpoena, which Jordan sent to Mark Pomerantz two weeks ago, had a “valid legislative purpose.”
“It is not the role of the federal judiciary to dictate what legislation Congress may consider or how it should conduct its deliberations in that connection,” Vyskocil wrote. “Mr. Pomerantz must appear for the congressional deposition. No one is above the law.”

Bed Bath & Beyond is reportedly preparing to file for bankruptcy within days, concluding a disastrous few years for the homeware giant.
The retailer's collapse could be finalized as soon as this weekend, according to the Wall Street Journal, as its plummeting stock price could cause the company to fall into default.
Following several catastrophic years plagued with supply chain disruptions and the tragic suicide of its CFO, the retail behemoth is set for bankruptcy despite already announcing a slate of store closures and staff layoffs.

WASHINGTON—The Supreme Court is leaving women’s access to a widely used abortion pill untouched until at least Friday, while the justices consider whether to allow restrictions on the drug mifepristone to take effect.
The court is dealing with a new abortion controversy less than a year after its conservative majority overturned Roe v. Wade and allowed more than a dozen states to effectively ban abortion outright.
At stake now is whether to allow restrictions on mifepristone ordered by a lower court to take effect while a legal challenge to the medication’s Food and Drug Administration approval continues.

On Monday, the DOJ announced the arrest of “Harry” Lu Jianwang, 61, of the Bronx, and Chen Jinping, 59, of Manhattan — in connection with the operation of an illegal “police station” in lower Manhattan. RedState first reported, in October, on the dozens of these secret outposts that have cropped up throughout the world. Their purpose, ostensibly, is to monitor Chinese citizens living abroad. At the time, only one such station was identified in the U.S., while three were noted in Toronto, and others in London, Amsterdam, Prague, Budapest, Paris, Madrid, and Frankfurt. 54 stations (at least) were identified in 30 different countries.
