Until the Daily Wire uncovered concrete evidence that the Federal Emergency Management Administration was telling relief workers to avoid Trump-supporting homes, the press was happy to take FEMA’s word and debunk accusations of political favoritism.
Now that the FEMA employee at the center of the current scandal is saying that she’s a scapegoat and that the problem is far deeper and wider, will the mainstream press ignore this too?
In the wake of Hurricanes Helene and Milton, FEMA came under attack for its seemingly sluggish response to devastation in heavily Republican areas of the Southeast.

Last spring, a marketing grunt at Bud Light sent TikTok star Dylan Mulvaney, a trans woman, custom cans of beer featuring her picture. As intended, Mulvaney posted about the beer on social media, igniting a firestorm and a boycott of the brand. Men revolted. Bars stopped serving it. Bud Light lost its status as the top-selling beer in America; it’s only back up to number three today.
I became aware of the left’s man problem when I wrote for Playboy back in 2015. When I’d ask my audience to submit their thoughts about hair loss, erectile dysfunction or dating, I would often receive thousand-word screeds, with a “thank you

Progressives have responded in extraordinary ways since Donald Trump secured a whopping 312 Electoral College votes to win the presidency for a second time. Some have thrown temper tantrums. Others have expressed elitist disdain. And some have decried the 75.6 million Americans who voted for Trump as uneducated, sexist and racist. Leftists' inability for self-reflection, along with their self-righteousness and delusional sense of superiority, have been stunning to observe in the wake of the Republican Party's sweeping victory.

Russia made an audacious public attempt to blackmail the incoming U.S. president, according to a military expert.
Vladimir Putin and his ministers are already trying to mess with Donald Trump's head when Kremlin intelligence chief Nikolai Patrushev claimed in an interview that Trump had "relied on certain forces" to win a second term in the White House and warned that he had "corresponding obligations" that he was "obliged to fulfill," wrote Slate columnist Fred Kaplan.

U.S. Sen. Bob Casey's final days in office read like a cautionary tale about the dangers of political evolution. His inbox overflows with increasingly desperate fundraising pleas – "Some bad news," "More bad news," "To avoid catastrophe" – while his campaign has embraced an unlikely role: election truther. The three-term senator now spams supporters daily, begging for $5 contributions to fund recounts against Republican Dave McCormick, whose narrow victory most media outlets have already confirmed.
The collapse of Casey's careful political balancing act offers a masterclass in how not to navigate America's shifting electoral landscape.

On Tuesday evening, President-elect Donald Trump shook up Washington by announcing that he would nominate Fox News host Pete Hegseth as secretary of defense. “Pete is a graduate of Princeton University and has a graduate degree from Harvard University,” Trump said in the announcement. “He is an Army combat veteran who did tours in Guantanamo Bay, Iraq, and Afghanistan. For his actions on the battlefield, he was decorated with two Bronze Stars.” During his years as co-host of Fox & Friends Weekend, Hegseth has focused extensively on military and veterans affairs. This year, he wrote a bestselling book, War on Warriors, in which he decried the new woke military.*

It didn’t start with this year’s hurricanes: Team Biden’s weaponization of FEMA — discriminating against the “wrong” disaster victims — goes back years.
And it’s not all on lower-level bureaucrats: The orders came from the top.
Yes, FEMA axed Marn’i Washington in the face of damning evidence she told subordinates to skip outreach to homes with pro-Trump signs after Hurricane Milton, which led to at least 20 homes getting skipped in October and early November. But Washington says she was just adhering to agency policy, and her supervisor OK’d her order: It was no “isolated” incident, as Biden’s FEMA folks claim.

The future president of the United States has announced a “new era” for the nation. I propose 10 goals that will make the next Trump administration as solid as the beginning of Metallica’s Load.
Return to Freedom
During the Biden administration, many things were lost: unity, prosperity, and the ability to navigate the world stage, among others. However, the main victim was freedom. Freedom is at the core of the American identity. Trump has the opportunity to revive the core tenet of America’s character and, as Reagan said, be “the keepers of the flame of liberty.” It is an opportunity to encourage people to pursue their dreams

This election offers plenty of lessons for those listening to the voices of the voters – but will the politicians listen?
First, conservatives and moderates took their country back. Only about 25% of the voters classify themselves as liberal compared to 75% who are moderate and conservative. Out went progressive DAs, marijuana referendums, and ranked voting efforts (except in D.C.). Moderates and conservatives are done with being ruled by the 25 percent.
Middle class economics mattered
Trump won a majority of the working- and middle-class voters, while Harris won only those making under $30,000 and those earning over $100,000 a year.

9Last Tuesday, America sent a resounding message to Washington when they elected Donald Trump and gave Republicans majorities in the Senate and likely the House. D.C. Republicans now have one job: Don’t screw it up. For Senate Republicans, this means closing the book on the Mitch McConnell era of governance marked by heavily centralized management and open hostility to the Trump agenda and the Republican base. On Nov. 13, they will elect a new leader for the first time in nearly 18 years and have a chance to usher in a new leadership that is accountable to the conference and the priorities of the evolving base of the Republican Party.

President-elect Donald Trump isn’t messing around. His first major policy statement since his landslide victory outlines his plan to restore free speech. This fundamental right has been diluted by federal officials who have worked closely with tech executives to suppress views they do not like.
“If we don’t have free speech, then we just don’t have a free country. It’s a simple as that,” Mr. Trump explained in a video last week.
Documents uncovered through lawsuits and released by X owner Elon Musk reveal how agencies such as the FBI, Department of Justice and Department of Homeland Security worked closely with social media platforms such as Twitter, YouTube and Facebook to

President-elect Donald Trump has pledged to “launch the largest deportation of criminals in American history.” That is a quote from a Nov. 2 rally in Salem, Virginia, but Trump has said precisely the same thing dozens of times. Still, through the course of a long campaign, with his improvisational style, Trump has occasionally worded his pledge differently. For example, at his Madison Square Garden rally, Trump said, “On day one, I will launch the largest deportation program in American history to get the criminals out.” At an Oct. 25 event in Austin, Texas, Trump said he “will launch the largest deportation program in American history”
