Atlanta— President Joe Biden said Saturday that he regrets using the term “illegal” during his State of the Union address to describe the suspected killer of Laken Riley, as his all-but-certain 2024 rival Donald Trump blamed Biden for her death at a rally attended by the Georgia nursing student’s family. Biden expressed remorse in an interview Saturday after facing frustration from some in his party for the use of the term to describe people who arrived or are living in the U.S. illegally. “I shouldn’t have used illegal, it’s undocumented,” he told MSNBC. The term was once common but is far less so today, particularly among Democrats who more fully embraced

It’s that time of year!
Wigs, weaves, and fists went flying during a brawl at a Spring Break beach party in Jacksonville, Florida on Friday.
A couple of wigs went flying but that didn’t stop the women from beating each other. WATCH: (X Video) It is unclear what caused the fight, but one of the women seen in the video said a group of girls tried to “jump” her “homegirl.” (X) Last week Florida Governor Ron DeSantis announced an increase in law enforcement and enforcement mechanisms in Miami Beach after a deadly shooting occurred during Spring Break last year:
The mother of slain Lance Cpl. Kareem Nikoui, a Marine killed during the catastrophic Afghanistan withdrawal, has said it's 'BS' her ex-husband was arrested for heckling Biden during his State of The Union address.
Steve Nikoui, the father of slain Lance Cpl. Kareem Nikoui, shouted 'Remember Abbey Gate!' 'United States Marines!' and 'Abbey Gate!' from the balcony of the House chamber in the middle of the president's remarks Thursday.
His son, Kareem, was killed by a suicide bomber during the botched withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021.
CLAIM: ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos claimed that former President Donald was “found liable for rape by a jury.”
VERDICT: FALSE. A jury in New York found that Trump was not liable for rape in a lawsuit brought by E. Jean Carroll.
Stephanopoulos repeatedly claimed, as he interviewed Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC), that Trump had been found “liable” for “rape.” In fact, he was found not to be liable; he was found liable for “sexual abuse” and, later for defamation. There are problems with both of those verdicts, but even if Trump were liable (in a civil sense, not a criminal one, as Mace noted), the fact is that he was never found
Former President Donald Trump lashed out at Oscars host Jimmy Kimmel during the ceremony, calling him a “washed up” talent. “Has there EVER been a WORSE HOST than Jimmy Kimmel at The Oscars. His opening was that of a less than average person trying too hard to be something which he is not, and never can be,” he wrote.
The former president issued his insult in a lengthy post on Truth Social. Trump then suggested that the network, ABC, “get rid of Kimmel” and replace him with George Stephanopoulos.

Back at Hunter Biden, Accuses Him of Lying
to the Court 1 reply
Special Counsel Dave Weiss accused Hunter Biden of lying to the Court in a reply to his motion to dismiss his charges in California.
The Justice Department in December filed new criminal charges against Hunter Biden.
Hunter Biden was hit with a 9-count indictment filed in the Central District of California: Tax evasion, failure to file/pay taxes, and false/fraudulent tax return.
The new indictment was handed down by Special Counsel David Weiss after a sweetheart plea deal on tax charges fell apart over the summer.
Jimmy Kimmel roasted Robert Downey Jr's manhood and past drug use in his bombshell opening monologue at the 2024 Oscars on Sunday - while also appearing to upset actress Emma Stone.
The host, 56, returning for the fourth time, left the A-listers grinning and cringing in equal measure as he took to the stage.
Downey Jr. 58, who is nominated for Best Supporting Actor for Oppenheimer was stony-faced as Kimmel made a crass joke at the start of the ceremony - referring to the reformed coke addict's past addictions.
It's clear that NBC Meet the Press host Kristen Welker has two modes of operation: Democrats get polite questioning, often about internal party matters, while Republicans get hammered with rough questions and predictably interrupted with bickering. There was a dramatic contrast on Sunday between Welker's polite approach to Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) and her incessant bickering with Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.).
I'll throw some math in. Schiff received six questions in his interview, and he spoke for 827 words. That's about 138 words per answer.
Academy Awards host Jimmy Kimmel waited to the very end of the Oscars broadcast on Sunday to take aim at former President Donald Trump and the MAGA base.
“Isn’t it past your jail time?” Kimmel said, sending the celebrity audience into paroxysms of maniacal laughter and enthusiastic applause.Just before the final award of the evening, Jimmy Kimmel read aloud a Truth Social post that Trump published during the broadcast in which the former president mocked Kimmel’s hosting abilities while also noteing the Oscars’ poor ratings in recent years.
Professional wrestler and actor John Cena caused a stir at the Academy Awards on Sunday night when he presented the award for Best Costume Design wearing nothing but a placed placard that read “Costume Design” over his privates.
The stunt was a nod to the infamous 1974 Oscar streaking incident, where photographer and activist Robert Opel dashed across the stage naked, sparking both shock and laughter as David Niven was introducing Elizabeth Taylor, Deadline reported.
The former WWE superstar, known for his iconic jean shorts or “jorts,”
American billionaires are selling stocks by the boatload - sparking fears of an impending financial disaster.
Jeff Bezos - the third-richest man behind Louis Vuitton's Bernard Arnaut and Elon Musk - unloaded $8.5billion in Amazon shares this month alone.
Mark Zuckerberg - the fourth-richest - sold about 1.4 million Meta shares worth roughly $638million. Jamie Dimon, chairman and CEO of JPMorgan, shilled $150 million this past week, in his first cash-out since taking the reins at the bank nearly two decades ago.
Within days, Apollo Global Management's Leon Black also enacted his first-ever sale, shedding $172.8million in his equity firm after 34 years. Walmart's Walton family sold $1.5billion in a week,
Academy Award host Jimmy Kimmel wasted little time getting political during Sunday’s telecast on ABC, mocking Sen. Katie Britt (R-AL) by comparing her to the Frankenstein-like heroine of Poor Things.
Jimmy Kimmel was acknowledging actress Emma Stone for her performance in Poor Things in which she plays a woman whose brain is replaced with that of a fetus.“Emma played a woman with the brain of a child, like the woman who gave the State of the Union rebuttal,” Kimmel said, eliciting guffaws of laughter from the celebrity audience.
On Thursday. Sen. Katie Britt (R-AL) delivered the GOP’s rebuttal to President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address.

Endorsement of Katie Britt as Vice Presidential Pick 15 replies
Retiring Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) endorsed Sen. Katie Britt (R-AL) for vice president Sunday, contending the “media overreaction” she received following her highly scrutinized and oddly delivered State of the Union rebuttal “tells us who liberals most fear as VP nominee.”
The failed 2012 Republican presidential nominee took to X to defend Britt following a wave of criticism over her rebuttal, which was described by some as “cringe.”
In a good way, the delivery was over-the-top, out of character—Biden’s, of course. Katie Britt’s too. The media overreaction to hers not his tells us who liberals most fear as VP nominee.

Democrat Rep. Adam Schiff (CA) on Sunday echoed John Brennan and said the Intel Community will sabotage Trump by withholding intelligence and ‘dumbing down’ his daily briefings this summer.
President Trump will get intel briefings after he secures the GOP nomination this summer.
Schiff said Trump can’t be trusted with classified information that reveals sources and methods.
“We can’t trust that he will do the right thing,” Schiff said to NBC’s “Meet the Press” host Kristen Welker.
Americans sprang forward Sunday in the controversial annual tradition of daylight saving time, prompting over a dozen senators to re-up their push to “lock the clock” and make the change permanent. “We’re ‘springing forward’ but should have never ‘fallen back.’ My Sunshine Protection Act would end this stupid practice of changing our clocks back and forth,” Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) said last week as he renewed his efforts to end the practice. Back in 2022, a bill sponsored by Rubio — the Sunshine Protection Act of 2021 — cleared the Senate via unanimous consent. Several senators later indicated they didn’t realize what they were supporting at the time
An Israel expert claims the Biden administration asked them how Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu could be toppled from power.
President Joe Biden has in recent weeks sharpened his rhetoric on the Israeli response to the October 7 terrorist attack by Hamas.
His administration has grown increasingly unhappy with the mounting civilian death toll, now at more than 30,000, in Gaza from bombings and ground operations. Biden has repeatedly criticized Israel's heavy-handed approach, calling it 'over the top'
Sen. Raphael Warnock fired back at former President Donald Trump for disparaging embattled Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis “I’m never surprised when I’ve seen Donald Trump attacking women, especially black women. This is who he is,” Warnock (D-Ga.) told CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday. “Donald Trump deserves a hearing before a jury of his peers,” he went on. “I’m going to allow the judicial process to proceed.” Warnock was evasive about whether he believes Willis should remain in charge of the 13-count indictment against Trump amid controversy over her relationship with one of her subordinates, insisting that a judge will determine that.
Senator Raphael Warnock (D-GA) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that it is “craven” some Republicans who stopped the bipartisan border bill are pointing to the murder of Laken Riley “to score cheap political points.”
Anchor Jake Tapper said, “A horrible tragedy in your state, I don’t have to tell you, Laken Riley, a 22-year-old Augusta University nursing student, was bludgeoned to death last month while on a run on the UGA campus. The suspect is an undocumented immigrant from Venezuela, who was released after crossing the border illegally, had a criminal record in New York, was still a free person.”
Women's professional golf tour, NXXT Golf, has changed its eligibility criteria to only allow biological female players to compete after transgender golfer Hailey Davidson sparked backlash for winning on the circuit.
Davidson, 30, who was born in Scotland but now lives in Florida, won the NXXT Women's Classic at Mission Inn Resort and Club near Orlando in January.
The victory allowed the Scot to take a step closer to the LPGA with the NXXT awarding its top five players with exemptions to the Epson Tour - a step below the top tier of the women's game.
News of the win sparked anger online,
Was Taylor Swift at the State of the Union speech and I just didn't notice? We've probably already spent too much time dissecting Joe Biden's rendition of "Angry Old Man Yells at Clouds," but the reality is that there were a lot of people watching that speech. Viewership was up a whopping 18% as compared to last year's SOTU, with more than 32 million people tuning in. That doesn't necessarily translate to good news for Biden as we'll discuss in a moment, but it was a welcome sign for the news networks. Viewership wasn't evenly divided among the networks, however. Fox News ran away with the ratings victory,
Texas governor Greg Abbott has turned the screw on the Biden administration by barring federal agents from one of the hottest flashpoints on the southern border.
The White House was already demanding the Supreme Court allow it to rip down miles of razor wire the state government has strung across a 29-mile section of the border around Eagle Pass.
Now the Texas National Guard has barred Border Patrol agents entirely from the 2.5-mile section of Shelby Park and defiantly stationed its military vehicles at the entrance to block access.
'That is not a decision that we agreed to,' Eagle Pass Mayor Rolando Salinas wrote as he reported the show of force on Facebook.

“This trial will not yield to the election cycle.” Those words of U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan last year made clear that she will not consider that Donald Trump will likely be the 2024 Republican presidential nominee in setting the schedule for his federal trial in Washington, D.C.
Most recently, in the federal prosecution in Florida, Special Counsel Jack Smith declared that he will not consider himself bound by the Justice Department’s longstanding policy of not bringing charges or holding trials of candidates close to an election.
A violent South American gang’s rise in the United States continued to frustrate border officials on the lookout for identifying tattoos and other signs as “gotaway” numbers increased.
From a mob assaulting New York’s Finest in Times Square to a Georgia nursing student getting killed while on a run, President Joe Biden’s illegal alien policies have continued to imperil American citizens. The alleged responsibility of foreign nationals wasn’t the only unifying factor as a source from U.S. Customs and Border Protection detailed how the Venezuelan prison gang Tren de Aragua (TdA) was increasingly on their radar.
Biden has never made a secret of his hatred for Bibi Netanyahu (and it’s easy to see why a stupid, draft-dodging man would hate an intelligent, accomplished warrior). Still, he’s now taking that hatred to new levels as he actively works to interfere in Israeli politics. For decades, leftists told us that it was morally wrong to try to affect a nation’s internal politics, but that doesn’t apply when the nation is a liberal democratic ally…and the world’s only Jewish state.
The New York Intelligencer reported on sources saying that Biden intends to overthrow Netanyahu, the democratically elected president of a U.S. ally (emphasis mine):
