President Joe Biden announced a $250 million weapons package to Ukraine on Wednesday in what officials said could be a final amount of aid from the U.S. unless Congress approves new funding.
Biden has asked Congress for another $61 billion in aid to Ukraine, but Republicans are refusing to approve the assistance without an agreement with Democrats to tighten security along the U.S.-Mexico border.
The White House has warned that without the additional appropriation U.S. aid for Kyiv will run out by the end of the year.
President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has confirmed that the agency is developing a program that will provide border crossers and illegal aliens released into the United States with photo ID cards.
For more than a year, Breitbart News has chronicled how DHS is planning to roll out a pilot program that will give border crossers and illegal aliens photo ID cards, similar to a driver’s license, upon their release into the United States interior from the southern border.
Now, DHS officials are seemingly confirming their plan to issue photo IDs to such border crossers and illegal aliens.
Security is being stepped up around Times Square ahead of Sunday night's New Year's Eve celebrations in New York City.
Although there are currently no identified security threats associated with the celebrations held in the heart of Manhattan, the New York Police Department (NYPD) are taking precautions.
Pro-Palestine groups have expressed intentions to protest in Times Square against Israel's military campaign in the Gaza Strip having already disrupted the Thanksgiving Day Parade and lighting of the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree.
Last week I wrote about how a good deal of former President Donald Trump's popularity is fueled by pure spite by the people whose lives have been damaged or made harder by the Biden administration's destructive policies.(READ: Trump's Popularity in the Polls Might Not Be About His Popularity)
His popularity has risen in part because the Democrats have made it very clear to the American people that they fear Trump, and if the people who've made your life miserable are telling you that they're afraid of someone, you're probably going to gravitate toward that figure and attempt to put him between yourself and them:

Across ‘Wide Open Border’ Is a ‘Weapon
of Mass Destruction’ 2 replies
Arizona Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate Kari Lake told Breitbart News editor-in-chief Alex Marlow that fentanyl coming across the United States’ “wide open border” is a “weapon of mass destruction.”
“One of the most horrifying things about that wide open border is the fentanyl pouring across,” Lake told Marlow at Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest conference in Phoenix, Arizona, last week.
“It doesn’t stay in Arizona,” the Senate candidate added of fentanyl. “It comes through Arizona, it takes mere hours for it to get to other states, and now in every state we’re seeing a record number of young people dying from fentanyl poisoning. Not overdoses, poisoning.”

Dozens of restaurants in Washington D.C. have closed their doors amid high rent costs and surging crime, with one business owner admitting he is tired of staff and customers being threatened, robbed and carjacked.
According to the Metropolitan Washington Restaurant Association, 52 restaurants in D.C. have shuttered in 2023.
The nation's capital is grappling with an escalating crime surge, having surpassed a 20-year record-high in homicides with 261 murders as of Dec. 14, according to Metropolitan Police Department data. Robberies are also skyrocketing, increasing 69% year-to-date, while theft is up 24%.
A federal judge declined to delay the corruption trial of Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ) by two months, keeping the previously scheduled timeline on track.
Menendez, who is accused of accepting hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes, had hoped to move jury selection for his trial from May to July. The trial for Menendez, his wife, and three New Jersey businessmen will begin on May 5, federal Judge Sidney Stein ordered. Menendez’s defense team said that it needed extra time because of the “unprecedented foreign-agent charge against a sitting Senator” and due to the 6.7 million documents that will be used in the case. The judge rejected this argument,

As most RedState readers would undoubtedly agree, Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) is an absolute national treasure thanks in part to his clever wit and ability to not mince words and get straight to the heart of the matter.He proved it again in a recent Fox News interview with Kayleigh McEnany, who was guest-hosting for "Primetime" host Jesse Watters.
The topic under discussion was President Joe Biden's border crisis, and the Biden administration's threat this week to sue Texas and its Republican governor, Greg Abbott, over measures they've been taking to secure their border since Joe Biden won't.

PragerU founder Dennis Prager told Breitbart News Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow that the corporate media fear that “one five-minute PragerU video will undo all the leftism” taught in years of public school.
“Since Tennessee, Oklahoma, New Hampshire, Florida, and Texas have considered allowing teachers to use PragerU videos, every major media outlet in the United States — NPR, the New York Times, the Washington Post — have just attacked us,” Prager told Marlow at Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest conference in Phoenix, Arizona.
“Our videos are five minutes. They fear that one five-minute PragerU video will undo all the leftism of eight years of elementary school and four years of high school,” Prager adde
The Biden regime has escalated its war on Texas. Not satisfied with flooding the state with millions of illegal aliens, they now want to stop the state from removing the invaders.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported Texas Governor Greg Abbott signed a bill earlier this month known as SB4 which grants state and local law enforcement officials the power to arrest, jail, and prosecute illegal migrants. Moreover, it allows judges to issue de facto deportation orders, thus allowing the state to send back the invaders the Regime has happily allowed in.
Maine's secretary of state has said she would welcome the Supreme Court reviewing her decision to disqualify Donald Trump from the primary ballot, admitting the move was unprecedented.
Sheena Bellows on Thursday ruled that Trump could not be on their ballot, in a move which mirrored the December 19 decision made by Colorado's Supreme Court.
Both Colorado and Maine found that Trump had participated in an insurrection, and so was ineligible to hold office, under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment of the Constitution.

Former U.S. Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) took to X the day after Christmas to bash former President Donald Trump, claiming that Christians who support him “don’t understand” their faith.
“I’m going to go out on a NOT limb here: this man is not a Christian,” Kinzinger posted Tuesday, in response to Trump’s Truth Social Christmas message in which he told corrupt members of the “swamp” to “rot in hell.” [Tweet]
Kinzinger went on to assert, “If you are a Christian who supports him you don’t understand your own religion.”
“Trump is weak, meager, smelly, victim-ey, belly-achey, but he ain’t a Christian and he’s not ‘Gods man,'” the Trump critic added.
At the same time the Colorado Republican Party files a petition to the United States Supreme Court to overturn a disqualification ruling issued by the Colorado Supreme Court {link}, a challenge that will result in President Trump appearing on the Colorado ballot {link}, the Democrat Maine Secretary of State has ruled by fiat that Trump should be disqualified.

An LA-based company, Channel 1, claims it will become the first news network to utilize AI-generated news anchors starting next year.
The Daily Mail reports that Channel 1, an LA-based news channel hoping to launch in the near future, is planning to introduce AI news anchors. These AI-generated anchors, set to debut as early as February on ad-supported streaming platforms like Crackle, Tubi, and Pluto, represent a significant shift in news broadcasting. The AI anchors are created using a blend of digital doubles and animated faces, designed to mimic real human behavior and expressions. However, despite their naturalistic hand gestures, a closer examination reveals a number of irregularities
The Methodist Church of Great Britain has called on its ministers, deacons, and elders to stop using offensive terminology such as “husband” and “wife” to avoid making assumptions that are not “the reality for many people.”
The church added the changes to its “Inclusive Language Guide,” an initiative aimed at preventing the use of “hurtful language” directed at groups the Methodist Church believes have been “marginalised and/or demonised by common culture.” The church plans to update the Inclusive Language Guide every six months to avoid using language that could offend groups it perceives as marginalized.
Hundreds of pro-Palestine demonstrators marched at Times Square and then in a walk from Zuccotti Park to the World Trade Center, continuing protests in a week where anti-Israel marchers have shut down traffic at JFK Airport.
Chants of 'Biden you will see, Palestine will be free' and 'Israel bombs, USA pays, how many kids did you kill today?' was part of the rhetoric used by the protesters.
Effigies representing children killed in Gaza were seen after people took part in silent procession which was organized partly by elderly Jewish groups through Midtown Manhattan earlier Thursday.

Spurring ‘Erosion of Quality of Life’
in New York City 28 replies
The arrival of more than 160,000 border crossers and illegal aliens is spurring “the erosion of the quality of life” for New Yorkers, Mayor Eric Adams (D) says.
During a press conference alongside Chicago, Illinois, Mayor Brandon Johnson (D) and Denver, Colorado, Mayor Mike Johnston (D), Adams warned again that New York City is falling into disarray as a result of illegal immigration.
Every day, President Joe Biden’s administration releases about 5,000 border crossers and illegal aliens into the United States interior — many ending up in New York City, where they can work off the books, receive protection from the city’s sanctuary policy, and enjoy free housing
Presidential hopeful Nikki Haley has been slammed for refusing to say that slavery was the main cause of the Civil War.
Haley, the 51-year-old former governor for South Carolina, blundered her way through the question at town hall debate in Berlin, New Hampshire, on Wednesday night.
The former UN representative jokingly told the audience member 'well, don't come with an easy question', before claiming that the Civil War was fought for freedom and ideological differences in how governments ought to work.
Special Counsel Jack Smith's office asked a federal judge Wednesday to prevent former President Donald Trump from introducing evidence at his Jan. 6 criminal trial concerning selective prosecution and security failures that occurred at the Capitol or making arguments his actions were protected by the First Amendment, suggesting such a defense amounted to politics.
In late December 2020, President Trump made a call to Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger asking him to look at some of the items that were uncovered by his auditor.
There was plenty of evidence for a competent auditor or any man of integrity to know that the election was uncertifiable.
Secretary of State Brad Raffensberger’s office secretly recorded the phone call with President Trump, then lied about its contents later when they leaked it to the far-left Washington Post.
Raffensperger’s office ran to the Washington Post and leaked a fraudulent transcript of the call.
