President Trump’s nominee for Defense Secretary, Pete Hegseth, answered questions before the US Senate Armed Services Committee on Tuesday morning. Democrat Senators used up their time during the confirmation hearing to smear Hegseth. However, newly-elected Senator and former Navy SEAL, Tim Sheehy (MT), won the day with a hilarious exchange with Pete Hegseth. “How many genders are there?” Sheehy asked Hegseth. “Senator, there are two genders,” Hegseth said. “I know that well, I’m a “she-he,” Senator Sheehy said to laughter. “What is the diameter of a rifle round fired out of an M4A1 rifle?” Senator Sheehy asked Hegseth.

With the wildfires in the Los Angeles area still raging, a new exclusive report from the UK's Daily Mail's Perkin Amalaraj reveals that the Los Angeles Fire Department has, for some time, been literally begging the city council for funding to replace aging equipment and hire new maintenance staff. Those pleas went unanswered, and now we see the results. The Los Angeles Fire Department begged the city's council for nearly $100 million to replace its entire fleet just two months before the deadly wildfires, DailyMail.com can reveal. The infernos that are consuming Los Angeles have so far killed at least 24 and have displaced more than 200,000 people, and critics

Dozens of out-of-town vultures have been busted for sneaking into ritzy neighborhoods in the Los Angeles wildfire evacuation zone to loot abandoned homes — and local police are naming and shaming them as a warning to the rest. More than 40 people have been bagged by the Santa Monica police for allegedly preying on the thousands of homes left abandoned there and in the neighboring Pacific Palisades. About 88,000 Los Angeles County residents are under mandatory evacuation orders as the 24,000-acre Palisades Fire and other blazes burn across the region — with tens of thousands more who were preveiously told to flee their homes.

Special Counsel David Weiss issued a brief report Monday on his investigation into the criminal conduct of Hunter Biden and claimed that “it would be inappropriate to discuss whether additional charges are warranted.” Marco Polo, a nonprofit that compiled a dossier on the Biden family, estimates Hunter violated more than 140 statutes. Most, if not all, of those alleged violations occurred between 2014-2024, the period of time for which President Joe Biden pardoned his son. (X) “Other presidents have pardoned family members, but in doing so, none have taken the occasion as an opportunity to malign the public servants at the Department of Justice based solely on false accusations,” Weiss wrote.

Let’s clarify: When I say Sen. Mazie Hirono (D-HI) did her job, I mean she read the attack script given to her for Pete Hegseth poorly and remains the dumbest person on the Hill. Hegseth has his confirmation hearing before the Senate Armed Services Hearing concerning his nomination as the next secretary of defense. Sure, Code Pink clowns interrupted the opening remarks. They got dealt with. Yes, Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) got a little uppity about what will happen to the women and the gays at the Pentagon. But it’s been mostly a smooth ride for Hegseth, even if he had to endure

Pete Hegseth is President Trump’s nominee for US Secretary of Defense and has battled garbage allegations from far-left Democrats along with the fake news media. He has been hit with libelous smears of sexual misconduct from anonymous ‘sources’ who only want to ruin his career and livelihood.

The Los Angeles fires have killed at least 24 people and destroyed more than 12,000 structures, and the reported estimated damage is around $150 billion. The damage is largely due to Democrats like Governor Newsom and LA Mayor Karen Bass after they slashed fire department funding and didn’t fill reservoirs. On Monday Biden announced his Regime is giving $770 to people impacted by the California wildfires.

WASHINGTON - U.S. Special Counsel Jack Smith concluded that Donald Trump engaged in an "unprecedented criminal effort" to hold on to power after losing the 2020 election, but was thwarted in bringing the case to trial by the president-elect's November election victory, according to a report published on Tuesday. The report details Smith's decision to bring a four-count indictment against Trump, accusing him of plotting to obstruct the collection and certification of votes following his 2020 defeat by Democratic President Joe Biden. It concludes that the evidence would have been enough to convict Trump at trial, but his imminent return to the presidency, set for Jan. 20, made that impossible.

The Washington Post is dying, like Democracy does in darkness. Cringe-worthy slogans aside, the Washington Post's downfall is well deserved as the rag has become an ultra-biased outlet that not only proved itself to be an unreliable social narrator but proved that the ideology that it supported is an absolute failure. So it's not a surprise that over the course of the years, its audience has more or less completely abandoned it, leaving it a shadow of its former self, a Goliath in the news industry. According to Semafor.com, WaPo has bled out its traffic, and that bleed was heavy. From 2021, it's lost 90 percent of its daily users:

Hamas is expected to release 33 hostages during the first phase of an emerging ceasefire agreement being finalized by negotiators in Doha, two Israeli officials said, the first positive sign in months that a truce in the Israel-Hamas war may be in sight. Officials have expressed cautious optimism that a deal could soon be announced to halt 15 months of fighting that has destabilized the Middle East and devastated Gaza, allow for more aid into the besieged Palestinian enclave, and ensure the return of dozens of hostages held by Hamas since its attack on Israel on October 7, 2023.

WASHINGTON — Retiring President Biden lifted Cuba’s designation as a state sponsor of terrorism Tuesday, less than a week before leaving office — outraging Republican members of Congress who believe more stringent sanctions should remain in effect. Biden, 82, made the decision in deference to the Catholic Church’s talks with the island’s Communist authorities on releasing political prisoners, the White House said. “We view this as an opportune moment to do so, given the important dialogue that is taking place between Cuba and the Catholic Church with respect to political prisoners,” a Biden administration official told reporters.

Sen.

I do not believe that you are qualified to meet the overwhelming demands of this job. We must acknowledge the concerning public reports against you,” Reed said in a stinging opening statement at Hegseth confirmation hearing, which began at 9:30 a.m. EST Tuesday morning. Reed said committee members must pay close attention to allegations of sexual misconduct and financial mismanagement against Hegseth in recent years.

The workers describe the film as “Zionist propaganda”, which misrepresents the militants who carried out the massacre as “antisemitic terrorists”.
