Trump ally Laura Loomer sparked a wave of condemnation on Wednesday night after she posted on social media that she wants a king. Following the horrific shooting of two National Guard troops near the White House on Wednesday afternoon, Loomer wrote, That's it. I want a King. Loomer, a former two-time GOP congressional candidate, has long been closely aligned with President Donald Trump and, in his second term, has taken it upon herself to unmask Trump officials she views as insufficiently loyal to MAGA.

This afternoon, blocks from the White House, a man sneaked up on two West Virginia National Guardsmen and shot them in the head with a handgun. Both soldiers are reportedly in critical condition. A motive has not been determined, but a recent Afghan immigrant named Rahmanullah Lakanwal is in custody, according to CBS News. Early photos of the suspect show a burly, bearded man being wheeled almost naked into an ambulance.

How is that modern-day finance? Eric continued. You can send $500 million worth of bitcoin on a Sunday night at 11 p.m. while having a glass of wine with your wife, for virtually zero fees. How is a system this lethargic? Why does it take you 120 days to go through Know Your Customer' with your bank if you want to get a home mortgage? It doesn't make any sense. Cryptocurrency is going to fix every single one of these issues, and Bitcoin is digital gold. Bitcoin is going to be one of the greatest stores of value we've ever seen ever.

Most people who take out mortgages go with a 30-year term. But President Trump wants the federal government to back a 50-year mortgage option for homebuyers a plan that would be "a complete game changer," according to Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte. Backers of the idea say it could help more prospective buyers get into a home they might not otherwise afford.

The brief and deeply unsettling encounter lasted just a few seconds, sparking outrage across Mexico and beyond as it laid bare what many women in the country face daily. But for those who have spent years tracking women in politics, the incident in which a drunken man attempted to kiss Mexico's president, Claudia Sheinbaum, on the neck and grope her was shocking but not entirely surprising.

Pochin said the viewer was "absolutely right" and "it drives me mad when I see adverts full of black people, full of Asian people". She said "it doesn't reflect our society" and "your average white person, average white family" is not "represented anymore". Pochin blamed the situation on the "woke liberati" in the "arty-farty world". "It might be fine inside the M25, but it's definitely not representative of the rest of the country," she said.

It's about time!

"The reality is that kids do stupid things, especially young boys," Vance, 41, said earlier Wednesday on The Charlie Kirk Show. "They tell edgy, offensive jokes. That's what kids do."

Things had been looking up for Katie Porter's bid to become the next governor of California. In July, Kamala Harris decided not to run in next year's contest, opening the door for candidates with less name recognition. And Porter, a former member of Congress known for her sharp tongue on Capitol Hill, has been the top-polling Democrat in a large field hoping to succeed Gov. Gavin Newsom of California when he leaves office.

The first episode of season 27 revolved around the politically motivated cancellation of Stephen Colbert, another late-night talkshow host critical of Trump, while the second directly lampooned Kirk. Many on the right have declared South Park morally complicit in Kirk's murder, despite the fact that Kirk himself celebrated the parody (going so far as to use its caricature of him as his X profile picture).

The most infamous example of middle-income baby boomers seeking retribution for the loss of their accumulated wealth occurred in Germany in 2009, when a retired builder and his pensioner accomplice took their financial adviser hostage after more than 2m of stock market investments had crashed.

It was supposed to be a simple rebrand or so Cracker Barrel thought. Earlier this month, the 56-year-old southern restaurant chain known for its country-store charm and nostalgic Americana aesthetic unveiled a new look: a minimalist logo, more modern interiors and a handful of new menu items. Gone was the familiar image of Uncle Herschel, the old man in overalls leaning against a wooden barrel.

Nina Turner, former presidential campaign co-chair for Bernie Sanders, called for Ogles's outright ouster from Congress, asserting that Ogles advocates against the Constitution.

Leavitt stated that President Trump is always in contact with supporters and listens to various perspectives, which she believes defines his success as a leader.

Anti-intellectualism is on the rise, specifically against scholars in the humanities, seen as contributing to our ability to connect as humans.

Zohran Mamdani posts Indian men cosplaying Jews, spinning dreidels and lighting the menorah. Our holidays and traditions are sacred and not for your comedic pleasure @ZohranKMamdani - this is sick.

At Glastonbury, Bob Vylan's performance led to controversial chants that were widely reported, with accusations of antisemitism directed at them, despite contextual clarifications.

Senator Lindsey Graham's recent tweet, "Game on. Pray for Israel," has drawn sharp criticism for trivializing the serious nature of conflict, with many claiming lives are at stake.
