America needs to hear ‘You’re fired!’
again, President Trump

If the second Trump term turns out to be like “The Apprentice” without “You’re fired!” its ratings are going to resemble Joe Biden’s. That means needlessly big losses in the coming midterms, and an end to — or even reversal of — President Donald Trump’s agenda. President Biden never accepted blame for the Afghanistan debacle, for economic malaise and record inflation or any of his other disasters, such as the endless waves of illegal migrants waved into the country. But he also never even implicitly admitted his team had failed by axing an obvious author of those debacles —

How to Stop the Female March Leftwards

What have Little Red Riding Hood, Jane Austen’s Emma and prison reformer Elizabeth Fry got in common? They are all female-coded ‘compassionate’ girls and women who can help us understand why young women are veering to the radical Left. The New Statesman has reported on this trend and the predilection of young women to support various perceived victim groups – trans rights and Palestinians, for example – even when these groups clash with their own interests.
Explained as “suicidal empathy” by Gad Saad and the “hijacking” of instinctive female care for victims by Eric Kaufmann, the lurch to extreme Left-wing ideology by young women today deserves our full attention.
Bari Weiss — the young, dynamic new head honcho at CBS News — is not at all interested in being accepted by the lefty communist collective clique that has had a stranglehold on American mainstream media seemingly forever. That's what makes her story so interesting, fun to watch, and important. It wouldn't be odd if she was, mind you. Ms. Weiss is decidedly left-leaning in her politics. She is something that we don't see much of anymore, an iconoclast who broke away from the leftist hive mind and survived all subsequent cancel attempts from the bedwetters.
New York’s new mayor, Zohran Mamdani, is already discovering that governing can be a whole lot harder than campaigning — you actually have to manage a budget, deliver on services, and do so without alienating your key supporters and allies. The grinning socialist is realizing that he and the Big Apple are facing some serious fiscal issues, but he has three answers: 1) It’s all former Mayor Eric Adams' fault (with some help from disgraced former Empire State Governor Andrew Cuomo, and 2) Scare the heck out of everyone by saying we’re risking the next “Great Recession,”
President Trump said Wednesday he has dispatched a “massive armada” toward Iran as the theocratic regime continues its bloody crackdown on its own people — with Trump warning that Middle Eastern leaders could face the same fate as Venezuela President Nicolas Maduro.
The president demanded that Tehran agree to negotiate a “fair and equitable deal” regarding its nuclear program and reminded the regime that he wasn’t afraid to use force against it last year.
“A massive Armada is heading to Iran,” Trump posted on Truth Social. “It is moving quickly, with great power, enthusiasm, and purpose.

He Was Shot 18 replies
Alex Pretti was “known” to federal law enforcement before he was fatally shot, and had broken a rib during a physical altercation with ICE agents a week before he was killed by a Border Patrol official on Saturday, sources say. Pretti “had a physical encounter with federal agents about a week before he was shot and killed by law enforcement,” CNN reported Tuesday. The incident unfolded after Pretti stopped his car upon observing ICE agents chasing a family on foot and got involved by “protesting their attempt to detain other individuals,” the outlet reported.

Pro-Democrat investor and pro-migration lobbyist Ron Conway is the biggest loser — so far — in the expanding fight to impose a wealth tax on California billionaires, according to a report.
“Probably the main guy getting his face eaten by leopards here, who around half of the [investors] I interviewed mentioned, is the major Democratic National Committee (DNC) funder Ron Conway, who is apparently close to Governor Gavin Newsom.,” Mike Solana wrote in the Free Press.
A striking digital billboard display in New York City’s Times Square is promoting Breitbart News senior contributor Peter Schweizer’s book The Invisible Coup: How American Elites and Foreign Powers Use Immigration as a Weapon, which reached #1 on Amazon the day before its January 20 release. Displayed prominently above the New York Police Department’s Times Square substation, the billboard juxtaposes Schweizer’s book cover alongside the words: “NYC, did you know? Terror groups linked to 9/11 are funding and helping elect members of Congress.” The layout spans two panels: one side features the book cover, while the other presents a visual of the Twin Towers —
The Saturday shooting death of anti-ICE protester Alex Pretti has roiled the city of Minneapolis and sent thousands of demonstrators to the streets night after night in the frigid cold. The inflammatory rhetoric from leftists continues even as not all the facts are known. President Trump, meanwhile, is sending Border Czar Tom Homan to the Twin Cities to manage the volatile situation, while U.S. Border Patrol Commander‑at-Large Gregory Bovino and a number of his agents will reportedly be leaving town.
However, according to DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin, Bovino remains a valued member of the Trump administration:
Virginia is the epitome of a swing state, at least over the last few years. From far left Democrats to conservative Republicans and back again, the state seems to swing like an unlatched screen door in a hurricane.
Now the state has gone from Glenn Youngkin to Abigail Spanberger, and with her comes a litany of anti-gun proposals that Democrats in the Old Dominion State have long wanted to implement.
And as NRA executive director John Commerford notes, this marks a change in the Second Amendment in Virginia.
In a commentary article in the Financial Post on Tuesday, Bjørn Lomborg argues that Net Zero is “on its way out”, as politicians across the world face up to the high cost and tiny climate returns of raising energy prices. With voters “weary of soaring energy bills and annoyed by increasingly hysteric and patronising climate rhetoric”, governments from the US to UK, Germany to Australia are waking up to the “simple truth”: “aggressive Net Zero mandates are delivering economic pain for unmeasurable and far-off climate gain”. Lomborg senses “a new pragmatism” entering the climate debate

Republican Rep. Mike Lawler is breaking from the Trump administration on its deportation push, calling for leniency for some illegal immigrants in an essay for The New York Times. “The deaths of Renee Good and Alex Pretti in Minneapolis this month were tragic and preventable,” Lawler, R-N.Y., writes in an essay published Tuesday. “No matter where you stand on immigration enforcement, the shootings show that what the country has been doing is not working.”
Lawler, who represents a district in New York’s Hudson Valley that favored Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris over now-President Donald Trump, argues in the essay that Congress must codify new immigration
The socialist government in Spain is set to give amnesty to half a million illegal migrants as part of a deal with the far-left.
According to Madrid’s ABC newspaper, over 500,000 illegals will be offered the chance to gain residency permits in Spain if they can prove they have been in the country before December 31, 2025, have no criminal record, and can demonstrate that they were in Spain for at least five months before their application.
The amnesty programme, which will run until June 30, is set to be implemented by Royal Decree, meaning the government will not need parliament’s approval to enact it.

Leftist religious leaders are planning to export Minnesota’s anti-ICE activism to congregations nationwide.
More than 600 clergy from various faiths gathered in Minneapolis on Thursday and Friday for what amounted to a resistance training conference, according to Religion News Service. Clad in “Abolish ICE” T-shirts, rainbow stoles and watermelon yarmulkes, attendees traded tactics for obstructing federal immigration enforcement between songs and prayers. “We have no doubt that there will be plenty of opportunity for ICE to show up in our community soon,” Unitarian Universalist Rev. Elizabeth Haralam Shuba of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, told RNS as she joined roughly 200 clergy marching through Minneapolis streets.
The European Union has agreed to open its borders to mass immigration from India as it signed the bloc’s largest free trade agreement.
EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said in a press conference in New Delhi alongside Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday that the bloc has agreed to a “mobility” scheme to allow for the influx of “students, researchers, seasonal and highly skilled workers” from India into Europe.
The EU chief also said that Brussels will open a “Legal Gateway Office” in India to help facilitate migrants’ move to Europe.

New York City (NYC) Mayor Zohran Mamdani cast blame on former NYC Mayor Eric Adams for the city’s $12 billion deficit budget, stating that the city is facing a “serious fiscal crisis.”
During a press conference on Wednesday, Mamdani accused Adams of underbudgeting important services that NYC residents “rely on every single day,” while “quietly leaving behind enormous gaps for the future.” Mamdani also accused former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) of extracting NYC’s “resources” and using the city’s revenues to “address state level holes, while withholding from the city what it was owed.”

Federal court documents allege that anti-ICE agitators who disrupted a worship service at Cities Church blocked stairways to the childcare area, preventing parents from reaching their children amid the chaos.
According to an affidavit, one victim told investigators that parishioners attempted to retrieve their children from childcare but “the agitators were blocking the stairs, and the parents were unable to get to their children.” (snip) Other accounts include an agitator telling a child that their parents were “Nazis” who would “burn in hell.”
An unhinged Virginia nurse who encouraged medical professionals to drug ICE agents with paralytic meds was swiftly canned.
Malinda Cook, a nurse anesthetist at Virginia Commonwealth University Health, was fired by the hospital on Tuesday after she spewed the disturbing remarks in a spate of TikTok videos.
Cook, who was identified by local media, blasted out her so-called “sabotage” tactics as anti-ICE riots exploded across the country. “Sabotage tactic, or at least scare tactic. All the medical providers, grab some syringes with needles on the end,” the nurse said on one clip spreading on social media.
“Have them full of saline or succinylcholine, you know, whatever. Whatever.
