First, this report is an attack on Kash from the right, complaining among other things, that he hasn't eradicated "Trump Derangement Syndrome" from the FBI and that Fox doesn't play in FBI break rooms, while applauding him for eliminating DEI. It was shared first with Miranda Devine, whose skillset is hit jobs, not government analysis. It was shared as a Sribd.
A small street that runs parallel to the Vietnam War Memorial in Westminster will soon bear a new name - Charlie Kirk Way. During a heated meeting rife with accusations of partisan politics and debate over the role of local government, leaders in the Orange County city voted 4 to 1 Wednesday to partially rename All American Way for the slain conservative activist. Kirk's name will appear in 3-inch font below the official street name.
Progressives on social media have spent the hours since CBS News anchor Margaret Brennan interviewed House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) on Sunday morning's edition of Face the Nation in a state of mass agitation. During their conversation, Brennan grilled Jeffries over his claim that President Donald Trump is attempting to rig the 2026 midterms, making note of Democrats' own efforts to draw favorable congressional district maps when Jeffries stood by his past remarks on the topic.
I've never understood, by the way, the bizarre Republican obsession with taking healthcare away from people. I mean, first of all, I mean Mitt Romney did it in Massachusetts and it was a Republican idea. Like, people are getting free healthcare in the emergency room. Let's stop that. No freeloaders. We're Republicans. I just don't get it. How many times did they try to kill Obamacare? Then they did get rid of the mandate. It still survived. But this is the only leverage Democrats have.
Democrats want to extend Affordable Care Act (ACA) subsidies that millions rely on and undo health spending cuts from President Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill Act. Warnock told Morning Edition that Georgians in rural areas have expressed concerns about losing access to health care. He said a small business owner told him she decided to close her business because paying for health insurance would be too expensive without ACA subsidies. The senator told NPR's Leila Fadel that the White House should "stop acting like these are pieces on a chessboard. These are people's lives."
House Oversight Democrats/XHouse Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) in a statement accompanying the release of Epstein documents that the convicted sex offender's estate turned over to the panel criticized Democrats for "cherry-picking documents and politicizing" the information.
It's delusional in the extreme to think that investors, even in magical-thinking Silicon Valley, would be willing to put money into a project with absolutely no possibility of being profitable. Public projects are for public benefit, not profits. The central question respecting the high-speed rail now is whether, short of making all the money in the world available to build it, it can be built at all in the current century.
The Republican president is proudly promoting the work of roughly 2,000 National Guard troops in the city, loaned by allied governors from at least six Republican-led states. They're in place to confront what Trump describes as an out-of-control crime wave in the Democratic-run city, though violent crime in Washington, like dozens of cities led by Democrats, has been down significantly since a pandemic high.
Recent actions by the Trump Administration, including the deployment of troops and a military parade, threaten to politicize America's military and jeopardize civil-military relations. President Trump has publicly criticized Democratic politicians during a speech at Fort Bragg, urging an audience to boo his opponents, which creates an impression of the military serving partisan interests.
