      It’s over…

      President Donald Trump said he is taking the government-generated documents found in Mar-a-Lago after his first term, where they were seized by the FBI, back to Florida.

      The president took to Truth Social on Friday to say he is taking the documents back:

      The Department of Justice has just returned the boxes that Deranged Jack Smith made such a big deal about. They are being brought down to Florida and will someday be part of the Trump Presidential Library. Justice finally won out. I did absolutely nothing wrong. This was merely an attack on a political opponent that, obviously, did not work well. Justice in our Country will now be restored.

      The FBI seized the documents at Trump’s Florida home and resort in August 2022. Agents found boxes of documents all over Mar-a-Lago, including in a ballroom, a storage room, and a bathroom. Two months before, an attorney for Trump attested to the Department of Justice that to the best of her knowledge, no government documents were at Mar-a-Lago. The raid showed otherwise.

      Trump has long claimed he declassified the documents in question and that he took them “very legally.”

      “There’s something going on because they’re going after me viciously,” he said in March 2024. “Then all of a sudden it comes out that Biden took 10 times the number of documents that I did. And I took them very legally and I wasn’t hiding them.

      On Friday, Kyle Griffin of NBC News reported that White House staffers were seen loading about 15 boxes on Air Force One en route to Mar-a-Lago.

      Trump was criminally prosecuted by former Special Counsel Jack Smith, who alleged that the president willfully took classified material to Mar-a-Lago after departing the White House in January 2021. 

      Judge Aileen Cannon, who was appointed by Trump in 2020, ultimately dismissed the case on the grounds that Smith’s appointment as special counsel was illegal.

      Former Trump family member Vanessa Trump revealed Wednesday that she has been diagnosed with breast cancer, prompting an outpouring of support from relatives, friends, and supporters connected to President Donald Trump’s extended family circle.

      The 48-year-old former model and television personality shared the news in an emotional Instagram statement, describing the diagnosis as an unexpected challenge while emphasizing that she remains optimistic.

      “I’ve recently been diagnosed with breast cancer,” Vanessa wrote. “While this isn’t news anyone expects, I’m working closely with my medical team on a treatment plan.”

      Vanessa also revealed that doctors performed a procedure earlier this week, though she did not provide additional details regarding the nature of the procedure or the stage of her diagnosis. She said she is relying heavily on her family and close loved ones as she begins treatment.

      “I am staying focused and hopeful while surrounded by the love and support of my family, my kids, and those closest to me,” she wrote.

      Vanessa concluded the statement by thanking supporters for their encouragement and asking for privacy while she focuses on recovery.

      The announcement quickly drew public reactions from members of the Trump family.

      President Trump’s daughter, Ivanka Trump, posted a heartfelt response beneath Vanessa’s announcement.

      “Praying for your continued strength and a swift recovery. Love you mama,” Ivanka wrote.

      Vanessa’s daughter, Kai Trump, also shared an emotional message, calling her mother “the strongest person I know” in a social media tribute that resonated with supporters.

      Additional support reportedly came through social media engagement from other members of the Trump family as Vanessa’s announcement spread online.

      Vanessa was married to Donald Trump Jr. for more than a decade before the pair divorced in 2018. The former couple share five children together and have largely maintained a cooperative relationship centered around family matters.

      In recent years, Vanessa has kept a lower public profile compared to many members of the Trump family. However, she returned to headlines after legendary golfer Tiger Woods publicly confirmed their relationship in 2025. The two have since been seen together at family events and golf-related appearances.

      Her diagnosis sparked an immediate wave of support online, with many supporters offering prayers and well wishes as she begins what could be a difficult health battle.

      Trump Declared Winner Of New Hampshire Primary

        In the end, it wasn’t even close…

        Former President Donald Trump has been declared the winner of the New Hampshire primary.

        Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley celebrated a symbolic victory in New Hampshire early Tuesday morning. Haley won all six votes in Dixville Notch, which kicked off the first-in-the-nation primary vote just past midnight.

        The remaining voters headed to the polls later on Tuesday.

        The final tracking poll before Tuesday’s primary showed Trump with a 22-point lead over Haley — his largest yet.

        While addressing a crowd of supporters Trump tore into Haley after his win in New Hampshire.

        “I have to tell you — it was very interesting, because I said, ‘Wow what a great victory,’ but then somebody ran up to the stage all dressed up nicely when it was at 7, but now I just walked up, and it was at 14,” Trump said, mocking Haley for delivering remarks to supporters after the race was called in his favor.

        “Let’s not have somebody take a victory when she had a very bad night. She had a very bad night,” Trump said.

        Later, he added that he couldn’t let his former United Nations ambassador “get away with bullshit.”

        “But I felt I should do this, because I find in life, you can’t let people get away with bullshit,” he said. “You can’t. And when I watched her in the fancy dress … I said, ‘What’s she doing?’ We won. And she did the same thing last week.”

        These 5 Republicans are Refusing to Back McCarthy for Speaker

          Current House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy is facing unexpected pushback as he seeks to become House Speaker when Republicans officially re-take control of Congress in January.

          So far, five Republican lawmakers have publicly announced they do not plan to support McCarthy’s campaign to become Speaker and he will need every vote he can get with Republicans holding a smaller-than-expected majority.

          The GOP is expected to wind up with a 222-seat majority in January, compared to an estimated 213 seats for Democrats. If all 435 members of the House are present and voting for speaker in January, McCarthy can lose no more than four Republican votes. 

          These are the 5 Republicans jeopardizing McCarthy’s rise to the Speaker’s podium:

          “House Republicans need a leader with credibility across every spectrum of the GOP conference in order to be a capable fighting force for the American people,” said Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL). “That person is not Kevin McCarthy.” 

          Rep. Andy Biggs

          Arizona Rep. Andy Biggs initially cast doubt on McCarthy’s bid for Speaker after Republicans saw lackluster midterm results. The House Freedom Caucus chairman is now directly challenging McCarthy to become Speaker himself.

          “I think we need to have a real discussion about whether he should be the speaker or not,” Biggs told reporters the Thursday after Election Day.

          “I think that his statement recently that we shouldn’t impeach Secretary Mayorkas indicates that maybe we’re not going to be as aggressive going forward as we should be. I think we need to have a very positive statement of what we’re going to accomplish and do, and I haven’t seen that yet,” he added. “That’s — those are things that I think we should have a very frank discussion internally about, where we’re going to be going forward.”

          Rep. Matt Rosendale

          Montana Rep. Matt Rosendale has also expressed his doubts over McCarthy’s potential Speakership but hasn’t ruled out voting for him or for Rep. Biggs.

          “Each member of Congress has earned and deserves equal participation in the legislative process,” said Rosendale.

          South Carolina Rep. Ralph Norman has also made it clear he won’t be casting his vote for McCarthy regardless of any concession the California lawmaker plans to make.

          “I’m not going to support Kevin McCarthy,” Norman told Just the News. “Washington is broken. There’s a cancer in this country, and it can’t be fixed with aspirin. It’s called overspending. When you’re bankrupt, you can’t function as a country.”

          Virginia Rep. Bob Good also signaled he will take a hard stance against McCarthy this January.

          “I believe we have at least a dozen or so that are strong, courageous, that will do what needs to be done on the House floor to ensure that we get an improvement in the speaker situation,” Rep. Good said to the “John Fredericks Show.”

          Appeals Court Rejects Trump’s Attempt To Block Pence’s Jan. 6 Testimony

            A federal appeals court has rejected former President Donald Trump’s bid to block his former vice president, Mike Pence, from testifying.

            A three-judge panel of the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals issued an order Wednesday denying the former president’s last-ditch effort to prevent or limit Pence’s testimony. The order remains sealed to protect grand jury secrecy.

            Pence’s team previously signaled it would follow the orders of the court. It’s unclear if Trump intends to appeal the decision to the Supreme Court or the full bench of the D.C. Circuit.

            While Trump argued that Pence’s testimony should be barred or limited by executive privilege, Pence took a different tack. He contended that his role presiding over Congress on Jan. 6, 2021 — fulfilling his constitutional role as president of the Senate — entitled him to immunity under the so-called “speech or debate” clause, which protects Congress from Executive Branch intrusion.

            Chief U.S. District Court Judge James Boasberg rejected Trump’s argument but agreed with Pence that the congressional immunity applied on certain topics — a historic decision that for the first time found vice presidents enjoy a form of privilege.

            Although Boasberg’s ruling was narrower than Pence’s attorney, Emmet Flood, had argued for, Pence opted not to appeal the decision.

            Earlier this month, Trump’s team challenged the ruling from Judge Boasberg. (RELATED: Trump Appeals Order For Pence To Testify In Jan. 6 Probe)

            According to The Hill, the ruling ordered him to answer questions about Trump’s efforts to stay in power ahead of Jan. 6 but agreed Pence’s role as president of the Senate allowed for him to be shielded from being questioned about the day itself.

            The ruling is a victory for Jack Smith, the special counsel investigating Trump’s alleged attempt to overturn the 2020 election. Smith subpoenaed Pence in February, triggering challenges from Trump and Pence.

            Canadian Conservative Poised To Lose Seat After 20 Years In Stunning Fall From Grace

            A stunning loss for Canadian conservatives…

            Canadian Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is projected to lose the parliamentary seat he has held for more than 20 years in a stunning defeat to Liberal candidate Bruce Fanjoy.

            The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC), a state-owned outlet, projected the loss on Tuesday morning following Monday’s federal election.

            However, Elections Canada’s decision to pause the counting of special ballots means it remains unclear whether the Liberals, led by Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, will walk away with a minority or majority mandate.

            Fanjoy, who is projected to take Poilievre’s seat in Parliament, worked in business and marketing and lives in a carbon-neutral house in Manotick, a suburb of Ottawa, according to CBC.

            “We have to look out for ourselves, and we have to take care of each other. Let’s get to work,” Fanjoy wrote in a post on X.

            In his victory speech, Carney appeared to criticize the U.S. for President Donald Trump’s tariff policies, which he called a “betrayal.”

            “We are over the shock of the American betrayal, but we should never forget the lessons,” Carney said in his victory speech. “America wants our land, our resources, our water, our country. These are not idle threats. President Trump is trying to break us so America can own us. That will never … ever happen.”

            In late 2024, just before Trudeau’s resignation, Poilievre was up 25 points over the unpopular then-prime minister, according to Politico. However, Trump’s tariffs and comments about making Canada the 51st state took over the Great White North’s election cycle, likely fueling Carney and the Liberals’ victory. 

            President Trump has repeated remarks referencing Canada potentially becoming the 51st state.

            “What I’d like to see — Canada become our 51st state,” Trump said in February in the Oval Office when asked what concessions Canada could offer to stave off tariffs.

            Despite Canada being one of the United States’ top trade partners Trump asserted the U.S. did not need Canada’s lumber or automobile production.

            The president suggested it’s unlikely the U.S. will annex Canada, partly because neither side would be willing to put up with the economic pain that would be required for that to happen.

            “We don’t need them. As a state, it’s different. As a state it’s much different. And there are no tariffs,” Trump said. “So I’d love to see that. Some people say that would be a longshot. If people wanted to play the game right, it would be 100 percent certain that they’d become a state. But a lot of people don’t like to play the game. Because they don’t have a threshold of pain.”

            Hillary Clinton Endorses Democrat Primary Opponent In Rare Rebuke

              A shocking betrayal…

              Former failed Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton made the rare move of endorsing the primary opponent of a sitting House Democrat.

              The former secretary of state who remains a vocal influence over the Party opted to endorse George Latimer instead of Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) on Wednesday.

              “With Trump on the ballot, we need strong, principled Democrats in Congress more than ever,” wrote Clinton on X, adding:

              In Congress, @LatimerforNY will protect abortion rights, stand up to the NRA, and fight for President Biden’s agenda—just like he’s always done.

              Make a plan to vote by June 25th!

              According to Mediaite, last month CNN’s Manu Raju wrote that it is “the most competitive primary an incumbent House Democrat is facing anywhere in the country.”

              Bowman, a progressive Democrat and member of the so-called “Squad,” has faced intense criticism from party colleagues over his strong criticism of Israel during its war against Hamas in Gaza following Oct. 7th.

              “He’s gone far enough out that even the left-leaning Israel advocacy group J Street withdrew its endorsement of Bowman in January, complaining that he had crossed a line in putting the blame for the conflict too much on Israel and not on Hamas,” reported Raju in May, adding:

              Now even many of Bowman’s fellow New York Democrats in Congress say privately they doubt he will win – but more than that, when asked by CNN, several pointedly refused to say that they want Bowman to win, or that they would support him as the race enters its final month ahead of the June 25 primary.

              Bowman was also censured by the House last December after he pulled a fire alarm in an apparent effort to disrupt a vote. Bowman initially claimed he “mistakenly” pulled the alarm while rushing to vote. However, security footage late made public debunked his story. (RELATED: House Votes To Censure Democrat Rep. For Pulling Fire Alarm To Delay Vote)

              CNN Commentator Insults Melania Trump After Speaking On Assassination Attempt

                The claws came out at CNN…

                CNN commentator Maria Cardona called former first lady Melania Trump “irrelevant” on Tuesday after she released a video discussing the recent attempt on her husband’s life.

                The former first lady released a 34-second clip on Tuesday calling on the “truth” about the assassination attempt on her husband, Republican nominee Donald Trump, to be uncovered.

                “Obviously as a wife of somebody who did go through an attempted assassination, she’s absolutely entitled to say whatever she wants about that. I think she’s irrelevant, frankly, and I don’t think this will matter,” Cardona said. “I do think that it does kinda feed into conspiracy theories that we’ve heard out there, but at the end of the day, what people are going to pay attention on tonight is what Kamala Harris says about what she wants to do with another four years, and if she does her job right, and I believe she will.”

                CNN political commentator David Urban pushed back earlier in the segment against accusations that Melania’s claims are a conspiracy

                “I think she’s asking ‘how the hell could this have happened?’ There were local law enforcement who did their job,” Urban said. “There are failures up and down the chain of command and the Secret Service, there are a lot of answers that people want.”

                “I think it’s reminding the American people that Donald Trump almost gave his life to be President of the United States, and somebody wanted to kill him because of what he believed in and what he stood for,” he continued. “I think it’s worth noting that the guy puts his life on the line everyday in doing this and I think that’s what she was reminding. She obviously loves her husband, Barron loves his father, and I think that she’s trying to humanize him.”

                The would-be assassin, 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, shot and killed an attendee, injured multiple others and also injured the upper portion of Trump’s right ear.

                English Residents Protest JD Vance’s Vacation

                  Vice President JD Vance’s vacation in the English Cotswolds was protested by residents on Tuesday, who carried altered images of the vice president’s face and signs that read, “GO AWAY.”

                  At a demonstration organized by the “Stop Trump Coalition,” protesters could be seen carrying signs that read, “GO AWAY,” “SOD OFF!” “WAR CRIMINAL,” “JD Vance Claps When the Plane Lands,” and “Cotswold Childless Cat Ladies Say Go Home.”

                  Protesters also carried edited images of Vance’s face and Palestinian flags, with one man wearing a t-shirt which read, “Tiny Dick Tator.”

                  “JD Vance, shame on you!” the protesters could be heard chanting.

                  A political campaign group called “Everyone Hates Elon” also drove a van around the area of the vice president’s vacation, displaying the same edited image of Vance’s face on a screen.

                  “He’s on his holiday. I normally wouldn’t protest against people on their holiday, but there’s clearly a political angle to this,” one protester told The Guardian. “You know, he spent the weekend with our foreign secretary and so I think that means, you know, anything goes, really. I think, you know, you have to be respectful of people, but at the same time, he’s here, he’s carrying out political business, and it’s appropriate to carry out a po

                  Bill O’Reilly Announces First Cable News Gig Since 2017 Fox News Exit

                  Bill O’Reilly is returning to the cable anchor chair next week, stepping in for NewsNation host Chris Cuomo — and he’s promising viewers a familiar format that made him a household name.

                  During a Wednesday night appearance on Cuomo, O’Reilly announced that he will host the full 8 p.m. ET hour on March 4 while Cuomo travels to Israel. But this won’t be a typical guest-host arrangement.

                  “I’m bringing back The O’Reilly Factor,” O’Reilly declared, pointing directly into the camera. “OK? I’m bringing it back, a week from tonight. You can’t miss this. Wait until you see the cast that we’ve assembled.”

                  Taking a playful jab at Cuomo, O’Reilly added, “You’re going to be jealous.”

                  Cuomo fired back with a joke of his own, calling it “the ‘Everybody Hates Chris’ show,” before thanking O’Reilly for “subbing in.”

                  A Familiar Voice for Conservative Viewers

                  For millions of Americans, The O’Reilly Factor defined prime-time cable news for more than a decade and a half. From 2001 until 2017, the show was the highest-rated program in cable news for 16 consecutive years, becoming a staple for viewers seeking a direct, unapologetic conservative perspective.

                  O’Reilly built his reputation on his “no spin” approach — challenging political correctness, confronting establishment narratives, and giving voice to working- and middle-class Americans who often felt ignored by mainstream media outlets.

                  Since departing Fox News in 2017, O’Reilly has continued to command a large following through his No Spin News podcast and digital platform, as well as frequent television appearances. His books regularly top bestseller lists, and he remains one of the most recognizable figures in conservative media.

                  Sparring Over Transparency and Government Power

                  During Wednesday’s appearance, O’Reilly and Cuomo debated President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address and the Justice Department’s handling of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein.

                  O’Reilly argued that the government has broad authority to classify sensitive material, warning against what he described as “trial by mob” in politically charged investigations. He maintained that releasing certain information without careful review could undermine due process and inflame public opinion before facts are fully established — a position that resonates with many conservatives who have grown skeptical of selective leaks and politically motivated prosecutions.

                  A Return to Form

                  While O’Reilly’s departure from Fox News in 2017 followed reports that the network had paid settlements to women who accused him of sexual harassment — allegations he has consistently denied — his influence in conservative media has endured.

                  For supporters, his brief return to the anchor desk represents something larger: a revival of a format that once dominated cable news and a reminder of an era when conservative voices reshaped the media landscape.

                  Whether for one night or more, O’Reilly’s promise to revive The O’Reilly Factor is likely to draw significant attention from longtime viewers eager to see the veteran broadcaster back in action.

                  March 4 at 8 p.m. ET may offer a glimpse of whether the “Factor” still has the firepower that made it a ratings powerhouse for 16 years.
