President-elect Donald Trump’s new Department of Government Efficiency, a nongovernmental entity helmed by billionaire Elon Musk and biotech entrepreneur and former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, is expected to make a push for an end to remote work across federal agencies as a way to help reduce the federal workforce through attrition. Both Musk and Ramaswamy have recently publicly lamented the number of employees working remotely across the government. A source familiar with early discussions about the focus of DOGE, as the initiative is known, told CNN that while nothing is final, early priorities include an effort to immediately end remote work across federal agencies,

Americans seem relieved that LITERALLY HITLER is coming to Washington with his "WEIRD" sidekick, while Sleepy Joe and Vapid Commiela are on their way out the door. The big surprise is the kids--the kids are thrilled that Trump is about to return to the White House. Trump's approval rating among 18-29-year-olds is off the charts at 57%, the highest of any group at +19. Wowza. Only the old farts are unhappy, with the 65+ crowd at -3%, which isn't bad at all. Needless to say, Trump is more popular than he has ever been, and the country is breathing a genuine sigh of relief

Britain appears ripe for a Trumpian-style political revolution, with half of young men in the country saying they would vote for the American leader if given the opportunity. A survey published by Jim Blagden, associate director of the More In Common polling consultancy firm, found that 50 per cent of men aged between 18 and 35-years-old in the United Kingdom would vote for Donald Trump if they could. The results of the poll showed a wide disparity between those who would vote for Trump and who they supported in the UK general election in July, with just a quarter of young men backing the Conservative Party or Reform UK.

Disney has reportedly decided to shelve an episode of the children’s cartoon series Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur, apparently over its plot concerning a transgender high school athlete. The Mouse House has decided not to air the episode entitled “Gatekeeper,” which features story praising a boy who identifies as a girl and who battles against opposition to his playing on a high school volleyball team. Several creators who said they worked on the episode which was originally set to air early next year took to the left-wing social media outlet Bluesky to decry the shelving of the episode. At least two who said they worked

A bipartisan group of Senators voted overwhelmingly Wednesday afternoon against limiting arms sales to Israel as it fights a multi-front war against Iran’s terror proxy groups. Senator Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.), an avowed socialist, brought a vote on three joint resolutions of disapproval to block the U.S. from sending some of the $20 billion of weapons to Israel the Biden administration approved in August. On a bipartisan basis, the Senate rejected Sanders’s push to halt offensive weapons sales to Israel as many Republicans and some Democrats reaffirmed their pro-Israel stances.

Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi flippin’ love Montecito. They do. They love it so much they have reportedly owned and/or flipped at least 21 properties there. Nevertheless, they are ditching Santa Barbara County. The ex-Montecitans are now expats after the reelection of a certain ex-president, the Wrap reports. DeGeneres and De Rossi are now at home in the U.K. The pair are voracious home buyers. They have bought and sold a number of properties around L.A., yet the Santa Barbara area was a particular favorite. Site Line, which keeps an eye on upscale real estate in those parts, said in February that DeGeneres and De Rossi had spent at least $350 million

House Speaker Mike Johnson announced Wednesday his intention to ban biological males who identify as transgender women from using women’s bathrooms and locker rooms on Capitol Hill. “All single-sex facilities in the Capitol and House Office Buildings — such as restrooms, changing rooms, and locker rooms — are reserved for individuals of that biological sex,” Johnson said in a statement. “It is important to note that each Member office has its own private restroom, and unisex restrooms are available throughout the Capitol. Women deserve women’s only spaces.” The move comes as Representative Nancy Mace (R., S.C.) pushes to include in the upcoming House rules package

Make no mistake, Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) isn't going to back down on her efforts to keep biological men out of women's bathrooms. As RedState's Bonchie reported Tuesday: Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) has started a firestorm by introducing a resolution to ban "trans women" from using women's restrooms on Capitol Hill. Democrats are accusing Mace of targeting Rep. Sarah McBride (D-DE), a biological male who identifies as a "woman." McBride will be seated with the new Congress in January after winning the election in Delaware's at-large district. Mace, who is a rape survivor, said her resolution is about "standing up against the left's systemic erasure of biological women."

President-elect Donald Trump urged Republican senators to remain in Washington to limit Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s (D-NY) ability to process President Joe Biden’s judicial confirmations. His comments, made on Truth Social, followed Senate Democrats confirming a controversial judge Monday night in a close vote, as well as a handful of other Biden picks. Several Republican senators were absent from the vote. “The Democrats are trying to stack the Courts with Radical Left Judges on their way out the door,” he said. “Republican Senators need to Show Up and Hold the Line — No more Judges confirmed before Inauguration Day!”

“Once they’re on the run, keep ’em running” is an old cavalry motto — and a strategy Donald Trump seems to have taken to heart. Democrats are scared and fighting among themselves. The publishers of newspapers like The Washington Post and Los Angeles Times that used to be hard-left propaganda outlets are now talking about the importance of hearing from both sides. MSNBC and CNN viewership is in freefall; one or the other may wind up being purchased for small change by Elon Musk. Universities are adopting political neutrality. This is nice, but will it last? The answer is: Only so long as the pressure is on.

A panel of appellate court judges in Washington, D.C., appeared skeptical on Monday of a longtime journalist’s argument that she should not be held in contempt of court for refusing to disclose her sources. The three-judge panel grilled former Fox News reporter Catherine Herridge’s attorney about the case during oral arguments and appeared poised to agree with a lower court that Herridge should be held in civil contempt. The appellate court’s final decision, which could come any day, could result in Herridge facing hefty daily fines or even jail time.

China rejected a meeting with Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin during a conference in southeast Asia this week, marking the latest turn in a tumultuous relationship between the two countries’ defense leaders. Austin sought to meet with his Chinese counterpart, Dong Jun, at the ASEAN Defense Ministers’ Meeting-Plus in Laos as part of a long-standing effort to maintain military lines of communication between the US and the People’s Republic of China. But China did not accept the offer, pointing to a recent Taiwan arms sale as their rationale, a senior defense official told reporters traveling with Austin in Laos. Three weeks ago, the US approved a $2 billion arms sale to Taiwan,
