Don’t let the democrats gaslight you. This TSA chaos is on them and worse and even more pathetically, they are doing it just to virtue signal their love for illegal aliens!!!

So to recap:

Democrats (both “legally” and illegally) imported millions of people into your country who hate you (yes, also you, the green-haired queers for Palestine).

They simultaneously work to defund the police and abolish ICE.

And now to ice the cake, they have crippled

Caleb Williams’ attempt to trademark the Iceman moniker ‘caught’ NBA legend ‘off guard’

Caleb Williams’ move to trademark the “Iceman” nickname has sparked an unexpected clash with NBA legend George Gervin, who built his legacy around the same identity.
The situation has quickly turned into a generational dispute, blending branding, legacy, and legal positioning.
And for Gervin, the reaction was immediate.
Gervin addressed the situation after learning about Caleb Williams’ trademark filings.

The legal tampering period for free agency has come and gone, and the Eagles will look drastically different on defense after losing Naobe Dean, Jaelan Phillips, and Reed Blankenship. Now all eyes will turn toward the 2026 NFL draft. The first day will feature only the first round, the second day will feature the second and third rounds, and the draft will conclude with the final four rounds on the third day. Philadelphia has needs, but a top-flight defensive tackle won't be needed after the Eagles agreed to a new three-y

POINT: Legal immigration boosts America’s innovation advantage

America’s economic strength rests on its ability to attract talent, reward hard work, and out-innovate global competitors. Today, as the country faces labor shortages and an increasingly competitive world economy, carefully controlled immigration is not just an economic policy choice — it is a strategic necessity.
If the United States wants to maintain its innovation edge, it must continue attracting the world’s hardest workers and best minds while building a lawful, modern immigration system.

The only way to "align incentives" for NBA, NFL teams is to remove the incentive...

On Saturday, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver acknowledged the NBA's longstanding tanking problem. He candidly admitted that, when it comes to winning games and securing dibs on the best incoming players, the incentives are misaligned.
The only way to ensure full integrity of the games in an age of legalized gambling, with every team trying its best to win every single game, is to fully align the incentives. And the only way to do that is to revolutionize the way the draft order is determined.
It's that simple

WASHINGTON, Jan 24 (Reuters) - A U.S. appeals court rejected the Justice Department's bid to charge five more people accused of disrupting a Minnesota church service this month, according to court documents made public on Saturday, revealing the lengths the Trump administration ‌has gone to prosecute those involved in the demonstration.

Democrats try new tactic to remove Trump's name from Kennedy Center

Democratic lawmakers are fighting to restore the original name of what is now dubbed the Donald J. Trump and John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, and pushing to make sure something like this doesn't happen again.
One House member has filed a lawsuit saying the Trump-appointed board acted illegally to rename the building. Two more filed resolutions condemning the name change, and three senators want to restore the name back to just Kennedy and prevent future presidents from naming things after themselves.

Citizens of the Central African Republic (CAR) will vote on Sunday in highly controversial presidential and legislative elections expected to extend President Faustin-Archange Touadera’s tenure beyond two terms for the first time in the country’s history.
Touadera, who helped put his country on the map when he adopted Bitcoin as one of its legal tenders in 2022, had earlier pushed through a referendum abolishing presidential term limits. That, as well as significant delays that almost upturned the confirmation of two major challengers, has led some opposition groups to boycott

The UK is deporting 60 delivery riders found to be working illegally after an immigration crackdown.

White House to review status of all refugees admitted under Biden with no appeals

The Trump administration is ordering the review of all refugees admitted to the U.S. during the Biden administration, according to a memo reviewed by NBC News. It is the latest in a series of actions taken by the administration to dismantle the U.S. immigration system.
The decision would potentially affect more than 200,000 refugees who began the process of legally immigrating to the U.S. over the last four years. In order to receive refugee status, applicants first must go through an extensive vetting proces

Megan Feller smoked pot several times a day and couldn’t eat, sleep or function without it. But at the time, she didn't see the need to reach out for help.
“I didn’t think cannabis was a big deal,” the 24-year-old said. “It was really socially accepted.”
This attitude is common. As more states legalize marijuana, use has become more normalized and products have become more potent. But fewer of those who are addicted seek help for it.
Pot use among young adults reached historic levels in recent years, according to a federally supported survey. Daily use even outpaced daily drinking, with nea

Confused Trump, 79, Mistakenly Amplifies Calls to Impeach Himself

Donald Trump is struggling to stay on message after accidentally boosting a call to impeach himself.
The president, 79, went on a social media posting spree attacking a group of Democrats who last week released a video urging U.S. service members and the intelligence community to refuse illegal orders.
But while doing so, he posted a screenshot of Sen. Mark Kelly, a retired naval officer and one of six Democratic lawmakers featured in the video, from an anti-Trump account named “Impeach Trump a 3rd Time.”

The American penny is history. The nickel might be next.
The last pennies were pressed at the US Mint in Philadelphia on Wednesday, a victim of production costs higher than their worth coupled with limited usefulness. While the penny remains legal tender, banks and merchants are already reporting shortages.
But the factors that prompted the government to stop making pennies are even truer for the nickel. Pennies cost nearly 5 cents to make – 4 cents more than they’re worth. The nickel’s net loss is nearly 9 cents per coin.
