Texas Democrat Snaps on Biden Over Border

    Even Democrats say it’s time for Biden to address the crisis at the border.

    Texas Democrat Henry Cuellar strongly criticized the Biden administration’s lack of action at the border, especially as Title 42 is set to expire soon.

    During an interview with CNN anchor Kaitlin Collins, Rep. Cuellar was asked what the effect of rescinding Title 42

    The congressman responded bluntly, stating, “Communities are going to be overwhelmed, not only El Paso. Weโ€™ve seen that in the past with the Rio Grande Valley, weโ€™ve seen it in Eagle Pass and Del Rio. Theyโ€™re going to be overwhelmed. There are just not enough shelters and border processing centers to handle the large numbers of people.”

    Cuellar insisted on treating migrants with compassion but was adamant that we “have to secure the border.” He said, “We can do two things at the same time. We can provide a compassionate way of treating the immigrants that are trying to come in. But at the same time we have to secure the border.”

    He added, “Because the only thing the border control is doing is processing a lot of them to come into the U.S. and then returning some of them under Title 42. If Title 42 goes away, this is going to open up a large number of people coming to border communities.”

    Cuellar urged the president to listen to people who understand the concerns of the local communities rather than just “immigration activists.” He said, “Look, itโ€™s okay to listen to immigration activists. Itโ€™s okay to do that. Thatโ€™s one perspective. But who is listening to the men and women in green and blue and more importantly, who is listening to our border communities?”

    He continued, “I donโ€™t know why they keep avoiding the border and saying thereโ€™s other things more important than visiting the border. If thereโ€™s a crisis, show up. Just show up!”

    The lawmaker added, “Just showing up at the border would send a strong signal to the communities that heโ€™s there, he cares about the border communities. Just show up. It doesnโ€™t take much to just show up at the border.”

    This TV Host Seeks to Represent Trump Supporters- There is One Glaring Issue

      Will Alyssah Farah Griffin become the new face of Trump supporters? That’s her new goal…

      The incoming conservative host for “The View” and former White House communications director who has taken a staunch stance against the former president says she wants to “represent” his millions of supporters.

      On Monday, Griffin joined “Good Morning America” to discuss her being named to the panel and the impact she hopes to have.

      According to The Daily Wire:

      โ€œIโ€™m a millennial and I worked in the Trump administration. Iโ€™ve also since criticized the former president,โ€ Griffin explained, adding, โ€œBut I still want to be a voice for the 74 million Americans who voted for him, and kind of tell them, from my experience, hereโ€™s why I wonโ€™t support him again, but hereโ€™s what a future Republican Party can and should look like. So thatโ€™s really what Iโ€™m hoping to meet the audience with.โ€

      Griffin went on to take several potshots at the former president, saying that she certainly understood discussions could get heated among women who did not always see eye to eye. โ€œListen, by the way, I survived the Trump West Wing. I think I can survive โ€˜The View.โ€™ Weโ€™ll see. Iโ€™ll be back to let you know,โ€ she added.

      Griffin, who resigned from the Trump administration on January 6, 2021, has since been quite vocal of her opposition to Trump. โ€œAs somebody who regrettably worked for Donald Trump, I do not want to see that man ever be president again,โ€ she said.

      Griffin and Ana Navarro were both named as conservative hosts for “The View” over the summer, however, Navarro is not expected to join the panel every day.

      Trump Names JD Vance, Marco Rubio As Favored Contenders For 2028 Presidential Ticket

      President Donald Trump has made his clearest endorsement yet for a future Republican presidential candidate, declaring that Vice President JD Vance is โ€œmost likelyโ€ to carry the MAGA torch after his second term ends.

      Speaking on Tuesday, Trump described Vance as โ€œprobably the favoriteโ€ to lead the Republican Party into the next election cycle.

      โ€œHeโ€™s most likely the heir,โ€ Trump said, referring to Vance. โ€œHe understands the movement, he understands the people, and heโ€™s doing a phenomenal job as Vice President.โ€

      This is the furthest Trump has gone in positioning a successor to his populist-nationalist agenda, formally known as the Make America Great Again movement.

      Rubio: VP Vance Would Be a โ€œGreat Nomineeโ€

      Trump also praised Secretary of State Marco Rubio, calling him โ€œsomebody that maybe would get together with JD in some form,โ€ suggesting Rubio could play a key role in a future Vance-led administration or campaign.

      Rubio, for his part, echoed Trump’s praise of Vance during a recent interview with Lara Trump on Fox News.

      โ€œI think heโ€™s doing a great job as Vice President. Heโ€™s a close friend, and I hope he intends to do it,โ€ Rubio said of Vance.

      Although recent polling has shown Rubio with some early support among Republican voters for a potential 2028 run, conventional political wisdom indicates he wouldn’t start publicly signaling interest in running for president until much closer to the election.

      โ€œYou never know what the future holds,โ€ Rubio said. โ€œBut if Iโ€™m able to finish this term strong and we accomplish what weโ€™ve set out to do, Iโ€™ll be satisfied with that as the apex of my public service career.โ€

      Still, Rubio did not rule out a future run, leaving the door open for a possible challenge or alignment with a Vance ticket.

      DeSantis on the Sidelines

      Noticeably absent from the conversation was Governor Ron DeSantis, once seen as a natural successor to Trumpโ€™s political movement. Despite building a national profile and gaining traction in earlier cycles, Trumpโ€™s latest comments suggest DeSantis’s national ambitions may be deferred.

      DeSantis has not commented on Trumpโ€™s endorsement of Vance, and there have been no signs of reconciliation between the two since the heated 2024 GOP primary battle that Trump won decisively.

      After Trump tapped Marco Rubio to serve as Secretary of State, many within the GOP expected Floridaโ€™s open Senate seat to go to Lara Trump, the presidentโ€™s daughter-in-law and a rising star within the Republican Party. However, DeSantis declined to appoint her, widely viewed as a political snub. Months later, President Trump publicly endorsed Rep. Byron Donalds for governor of Floridaโ€”despite growing rumors that First Lady Casey DeSantis was quietly laying the groundwork for her own gubernatorial bid.

      JD Vance: Rising Star with Trumpโ€™s Blessing

      Vance, the author of Hillbilly Elegy and a former venture capitalist turned U.S. Senator from Ohio, has quickly risen through the ranks. Since joining Trumpโ€™s 2024 ticket, he has been a key spokesperson for the administration, often on issues like immigration enforcement, trade reform, and a restrained foreign policy.

      With Trump now openly calling Vance the future of the movement, the groundwork appears to be laid for a smooth transition of MAGA leadership โ€” one that could shape the GOPโ€™s identity for years beyond Trumpโ€™s final term.

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

      2

      A stunning loss for Canadian conservatives…

      Canadian Conservative Leaderย 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.

      Theย Canadian Broadcasting Corporationย (CBC), a state-owned outlet, projected the loss on Tuesday morning following Mondayโ€™s federal election.

      However, Elections Canadaโ€™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 Poilievreโ€™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. Letโ€™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 Trumpโ€™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 Trudeauโ€™s resignation, Poilievre was up 25 points over the unpopular then-prime minister,ย according to Politico. However, Trumpโ€™s tariffs and comments about making Canada the 51st state took over the Great White Northโ€™s election cycle, likely fueling Carney and the Liberalsโ€™ victory.ย 

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

      โ€œWhat Iโ€™d like to see โ€” Canada become our 51st state,โ€ 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 Statesโ€™ top trade partners Trump asserted the U.S. did not need Canadaโ€™s lumber or automobile production.

      The president suggested itโ€™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.

      โ€œWe donโ€™t need them. As a state, itโ€™s different. As a state itโ€™s much different. And there are no tariffs,โ€ Trump said. โ€œSo Iโ€™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 theyโ€™d become a state. But a lot of people donโ€™t like to play the game. Because they donโ€™t have a threshold of pain.โ€

      Senate Democrats Introduce Bill to Block Trump From Putting Face on Dollar Coin

      Democratic Senators Jeff Merkley (Ore.) and Catherine Cortez Masto (Nev.) introduced legislation Tuesday aimed at preventing President Trumpโ€”or any sitting or living former presidentโ€”from appearing on U.S. currency. Their proposal, titled the Change Corruption Act, comes as the U.S. Treasury considers issuing a commemorative $1 coin featuring Trumpโ€™s image in recognition of Americaโ€™s 250th anniversary.

      The bill, cosponsored by Sens. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) and Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.), states plainly: โ€œNo United States currency may feature the likeness of a living or sitting President.โ€ The lawmakers argue that the measure reflects historical practice, noting that U.S. currency has traditionally featured only deceased presidents and statesmen.

      A Preemptive Strike on a Potential Semiquincentennial Honor

      The U.S. Mint is reportedly close to announcing whether it will release a limited-run Trump coin as part of the nationโ€™s celebration of the 250th birthday of the United States in 2026. Commemorative coinsโ€”distinct from circulating coinsโ€”are historically used to honor major anniversaries, public achievements, and historic figures. Past presidents, including Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush, have been featured posthumously on such special-issue coins.

      A draft image circulating within the Treasury Department shows Trumpโ€™s profile above the word โ€œLiberty,โ€ a standard placement for American coinage.

      Democrats Frame the Coin as a Threat to Democratic Norms

      In unusually heated language for a discussion about commemorative currency, Merkley compared Trumpโ€™s potential appearance on a coin to the behavior of authoritarian regimes:

      โ€œPresident Trumpโ€™s self-celebrating maneuvers are authoritarian actions worthy of dictators like North Koreaโ€™s Kim Jong Un, not the United States of America,โ€ Merkley said in a statement.

      He argued Congress must take action to limit the executive branchโ€™s influence over commemorative designs:

      โ€œWe must reject his efforts to dismantle our โ€˜We, The Peopleโ€™ republic and replace it with a strongman state by demanding strong accountability to prevent further abuse of taxpayer dollars.โ€

      Cortez Masto echoed Merkleyโ€™s claims, asserting that any depiction of a living president on U.S. coinage would resemble an outdated monarchical tradition:

      โ€œWhile monarchs put their faces on coins, America has never had and never will have a king.โ€

      She added:

      โ€œOur legislation would codify this countryโ€™s long-standing tradition of not putting living presidents on American coins. Congress must pass it without delay.โ€

      Former Bravo Star Says Trump Voters Need to be Banned from Mexican Restaurants in Profane Rant

      Former Bravo reality TV star Jennifer Welch went on an expletive-filled rant demanding people who voted for Presidentย Donald Trumpย three times be banned from Mexican and Chinese restaurants on Thursday.

      “Iโ€™ve had it with White people that triple Trumped that have the nerve and the audacity to walk into a Mexican restaurant, a Chinese restaurant, an Indian restaurant, go to perhaps their gay hairdresser,” Welch commented on her podcast “Iโ€™ve Had It.”

      She recalled an instance of seeing “MAGA-looking people” at a Mexican restaurant and said they had “a lot of f—ing nerve” given the Trump administrationโ€™s immigration policies.

      “Frankly, I donโ€™t think you should be able to enjoy anything but Cracker Barrel,” Welch said. “If you want to triple Trump, if you want to browbeat DEI, if you want to browbeat gay people, you want to browbeat Black people, as you have been doing for four hundred years. And you want to browbeat this generation of immigrants that come over here and open up business earnestly and pay their taxes.”

      Welch continued by attacking Trump as a “teeny-weeny mushroom c— piece of s— Cankles McTaco Tits.”

      She added, “White people that triple Trumped should be banned, boycotted from enjoying the best thing that America has to offer, which is multiculturalism. Get your fat a– out of the Mexican restaurant. Get your fat a– over toย Cracker Barrelย because nobody wants to see your f—ing smug a– teeny-weeny, pink arm, big gut around. Nobody wants to see that s—. No one.”

      Her co-host Angie “Pumps” Sullivan said she “completely” agreed and went one step further by attacking female Trump voters.

      “I want you to give up a credit card in your name,” Sullivan said. “I want you to give up the bank account in your name. And I want you to be completely beholden to a man. I don’t want you to work. I want you to stay home and make cornflakes from scratch for that f—er because that’s what you’re voting for.”

      She continued, “When they’re talking about the golden age and ‘let’s make America great again,’ they’re talking about you having less rights than men, not be able to have a credit card, not being able to own anything in your own name. So, triple Trump country club Christian White women, you should have to forfeit those luxuries.”

      In a comment to Fox News, White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson attacked Welch’s comments as “out of touch with reality” based on Trump’s “historically diverse coalition.”

      “Rich liberal white women love to pretend to be champions of diversity until they are confronted by diversity of thought. President Trump was elected by a historically diverse coalition of Americans from all races, religions, and orientations. As per usual this reality star is out of touch with reality,” Jackson said.

      Sylvester Stallone Introduces Trump As โ€˜Second George Washingtonโ€™ In Surprise Appearance

        0

        Academy Award nominated actor Sylvester Stallone introduced President-elect Donald Trump at a gala held at Mar-a-Lago on Thursday, likening Trump to a “second George Washington” in a series of dramatic remarks.

        Stallone, 78, addressed attendees at the America First Policy Institute gala, praising Trumpโ€™s impact and resilience. “We are in the presence of a really mythical character,” said the actor, famed for his roles in the Rocky and Rambo franchises. “I love mythology. This individual does not exist on this planet. Nobody in the world could have pulled off what he pulled off.”

        Drawing a historical comparison, Stallone continued: “When George Washington defended his country, he had no idea that he was going to change the world. ‘Cause without him, you could imagine what the world would look like. Guess what? We got the second George Washington.”

        Stone also compared Trump’s comeback to the transformation Rocky underwent to prepare for his climactic fight against Apollo Creed.

        As Fox News reports:

        After a brief pause, Trump walked onto the stage to Stallone’s introduction and shook his hand while saying a few words to the actor.

        While Stallone has stayed pretty quiet about his personal politics over the years and admitted to not voting in the 2016 and 2020 elections, he did tell Variety magazine in 2016 that he liked Trump.

        “I love Donald Trump,” he said at the time. “There are certain people like Arnold [Schwarzenegger], Babe Ruth, that are bigger than life. But I don’t know how that translates to running the world.”

        Stallone did not publicly endorse Trump during the 2024 election cycle, but he did answer a FaceTime call from Fox News’ Brett Baier in October and encouraged Pennsylvania voters to “keep punching.”

        Stone’s latest remarks are the first to make his political support for Trump explicit.

        The evening also featured remarks from billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk, who has been tapped as a nominee for the Department of Government Efficiency. Musk hinted at sweeping changes during Trumpโ€™s upcoming administration, stating: “Itโ€™s not going to be business as usual. Itโ€™s going to be a revolution!”

        Judge Rules Against Attempt to Try All Trump Georgia Defendants Together

          2

          On Thursday, a Georgia state judge rejected District Attorney Fani Willis’ request to try all 19 defendants in the Georgia election interference case next month, dealing a significant blow to the infamous anti-Trump prosecutor.

          The Georgia judge’s ruling means former President Donald Trump will not be tried in October alongside at least two of his co-defendants who invoked their right to a speedy trial, according to The Hill.

          โ€œThe Court joins the skepticism expressed by several federal courts that denying severance always ensures efficiency, especially in โ€˜mega trialsโ€™ such as this,โ€ Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee wrote in an order. 

          โ€œ[T]he Court finds sua sponte, without the need for any particularized showing from each defendant, that severance is an absolute necessity,โ€ McAfee wrote. โ€œAdditional divisions of the  defendants may well be required. That is a decision for another day once the many anticipated pretrial motions have been resolved and a realistic trial date approaches.โ€

          Trump and his 18 co-defendants have all pleaded not guilty to the combined 41 charges they face. The former president has also made numerous attempts to have the trial delayed, arguing his team would not be ready for trial by October.

          Though Judge McAfee did not set a trial date for Trump, his ruling sets a motions deadline of Dec. 1

          Judge McAfee also ruled that defendants Kenneth Chesebro and Sidney Powell โ€“ the two defendants who invoked their right to a speedy trial last month โ€“ will be tried together.

          Chesebro had argued in court filings that he never met Powell, rendering it โ€œimpossibleโ€ to try their cases together.

          Thanksgiving Turnaround: Americans Finally See Relief Under President Trump

            1

            As millions of families gather around the Thanksgiving table this year, many are finally beginning to feel a long-awaited sense of financial reliefโ€”relief that President Donald J. Trump has been fighting tirelessly to deliver.

            After inheriting the worst inflation crisis in 40 years from Joe Biden and Democrat leadership, the renewed Trump Administration has moved swiftly to correct course: unleashing American energy, slashing crushing regulations, and tackling inflation at its roots. While there is still much work ahead, these policies are already translating into meaningful, tangible improvements for American families.

            This Thanksgiving, those improvements are showing up where it matters most: at the gas pump and the grocery store.

            The Job Isnโ€™t Finishedโ€”But the Turnaround Has Begun

            No one on the right is declaring โ€œmission accomplished.โ€ American families are still paying far more than they should after four years of reckless federal spending, regulatory overreach, and economic mismanagement. But for the first time in years, the trendlines are finally headed in the right direction.

            Local news outlets across the country are reporting the same story: lower gas prices, cheaper Thanksgiving dinners, and early signs of an economy beginning to heal.

            Below are some of the highlights from communities nationwide.


            Falling Gas Prices Coast to Coast

            Denver, CO โ€” Gas Dips Below $2

            KDVR-TV reports Denver-area gas prices have fallen 14.5 cents in just one week, with at least one station dropping below $2 a gallonโ€”levels not seen in years. At $2.47 on average, Denver prices are well under the national average and significantly lower than last year.

            San Antonio, TX โ€” Pandemic-Era Lows

            KSAT-TV notes that Thanksgiving travelers in Texas are seeing some of the cheapest prices since the pandemicโ€”welcome relief for families crisscrossing the state this holiday season.

            Indiana & Louisiana โ€” Steady Declines

            From Indianaโ€™s 12.3-cent drop reported by WBIW Radio to broad decreases across Louisiana, drivers are finally getting a break after years of painful price hikes.

            Ohio, New Hampshire & Pennsylvania โ€” A Return to Normal

            Stations in Northeast Ohio, New Hampshire, and Pittsburgh are reporting sharp declines, with some areas seeing gas below $3 againโ€”something unthinkable throughout most of the Biden years.


            Thanksgiving Dinner: Meaningfully Cheaper for Millions

            It isnโ€™t just fuel costs that are improving. For the third year in a row, the cost of the traditional Thanksgiving meal is fallingโ€”and this yearโ€™s decreases are especially notable.

            Iowa & Midwest โ€” Turkey Prices Down

            KIMT-TV highlights a 5% overall drop in meal costs in Iowa, with falling turkey and wheat prices leading the way.

            Michigan โ€” Below the National Average

            The Detroit Free Press confirms that Michigan families will spend roughly $51.80 for a dinner serving 10โ€”well below the national average.

            Louisiana โ€” One of the Cheapest States in America

            According to The Shreveport Times, Louisianaโ€™s average Thanksgiving dinner cost is just $44.70โ€”the second lowest in the entire country.

            Arizona, Illinois & New York โ€” Broad-Based Relief

            From Arizonaโ€™s modest price drop to Illinoisโ€™ 16% decline in turkey prices and New Yorkโ€™s third consecutive year of lower dinner costs, the story is consistent: Thanksgiving is becoming more affordable again.


            A Promising Start to an American Comeback

            None of these improvements happened by accident.

            They are the result of a renewed commitment to American energy dominance, the deregulation of key industries, and an economic strategy focused squarely on the needs of working familiesโ€”not bureaucrats or special interests.

            ‘Squad’ Member Spent Nearly $500k on Security Despite Advocating to Defund the Police

              9

              Radical House Democrat Cori Bush has reportedly spent $490 thousand on private security over the past two years despite her repeated push to defund the police.

              Bush’s campaign paid out over $100,000 for security services during the third quarter of 2022 alone, according to Federal Election Commission records. Just over $71,000 went to private security, while the other $30,000 was categorized for other security services. She has spent $490,000 overall, according to The Washington Examiner.

              “The thing about ‘defund the police’ is we have to tell the entire narrative,” Bush said in anย interviewย onย Good Morning America. “People hear โ€˜defund the police.โ€™ But you know what theyโ€™ll say? Say โ€˜reallocate,โ€™ say โ€˜divest,โ€™ say โ€˜move.โ€™ But itโ€™s still the same thing. We canโ€™t get caught up on the word. People spend more time focusing on the word โ€˜defundโ€™ than they spend on caring and addressing the problem of police in this country.”

              Bush previously pushed back on comments against her high expenditure on security last year after Fox News noted that the congresswoman was paying for private security. The security was because people had made death threats against her in the past, Bush said.

              “They would rather I die?” Bushย asked CBS Newsย in 2021. “You would rather me die? Is that what you want to see? You want to see me die? You know, because that could be the alternative.”

              Bush, along with other progressive “Squad” members, have doled out some serious cash for private security services despite publicly crying out against the funding of police.

              Other Squad members have also paid thousands of dollars for private security despite pushes to defund the police. Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D-MN) campaign paid $27,081.14 to Relative Intel LLC, a Minnesota-based personal-protection firm. Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) spent $4,676 on private security, and Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) spent $2,230, according to Fox News.
