The Supreme Court just handed President Trump a rare defeat in his push to secure Chicago’s streets.In a stunning decision on December 23, the highest court in the land denied Trump’s request to send roughly 300 National Guard troops to protect Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in the Windy City, marking a significant check on presidential power, the New York Post reported. Let’s rewind to August 2025, when Trump first started eyeing National Guard deployments to cities like Portland and Memphis, only to hit legal roadblocks at every turn.

Merry Christmas, America.PublishedDecember 25, 2025 12:08 AM EST•UpdatedDecember 25, 2025 12:09 AM ESTFacebookTwitterEmailCopy LinkPresident Trump turned the annual NORAD Santa Tracker into pure comedy gold on Christmas Eve, delivering a legendary one-liner about keeping a “bad Santa” out of the country. While taking calls from excited children at Mar-a-Lago, the President was asked why the military bothers tracking St. Nick in the first place. Without skipping a beat, he delivered an absolute gem.”Well, we track Santa all over the world,” Trump explained.

Hold onto your hats, folks—another twist in the Jeffrey Epstein saga has surfaced with a forged letter that’s as believable as a unicorn sighting. The FBI and Department of Justice dropped a bombshell on Tuesday, revealing that an alleged letter from Epstein to disgraced gymnast abuser Larry Nassar, tucked into a massive dump of over 30,000 Epstein files, is nothing but a hoax, the Washington Examiner reported. This fabricated note, addressed to “L.N.,” took a wild swing at former President Donald Trump with claims so outlandish they’d make a tabloid blush.

Brace yourselves, folks—Hunter Biden’s latest interview is a political grenade lobbed straight at Washington’s elite with some eyebrow-raising claims.In a raw chat on “The Shawn Ryan Show,” the 55-year-old son of President Joe Biden ripped into Obama-era staffers, dissected his foreign business missteps, and even critiqued his father’s administration while targeting the Trump family’s dealings, the New York Post reported. Let’s turn back the clock to 2009, when Joe Biden became vice president and Hunter’s world shifted. He claims Obama’s team pushed him out of domestic lobbying roles with Jesuit universities and a spot on Amtrak’s board, citing conflict-of-interest concerns.…
When someone in the elitist media is accused of a pro-Trump bias, PBS News Hour won’t consider having on any conservative media critics (like NewsBusters) to discuss it. Instead, they routinely turn to CNN’s Brian Stelter to echo their thoughts on how the media should maintain a fierce anti-Trump bias. On Monday night, PBS host William Brangham asked this unintentionally funny question: “In your view, as a media analyst and critic, does it feel like a lopsided piece of journalism or does it feel like it lives up to 60 Minutes’ normal standards?” Lopsided liberalism is their normal standard! Stelter…
In those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that the whole world should be enrolled. This was the first enrollment, when Quirinius was governor of Syria. So all went to be enrolled, each to his own town. And Joseph too went up from Galilee from the town of Nazareth to Judea, to the city of David that is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David, to be enrolled with Mary, his betrothed, who was with child. While they were there, the time came for her to have her child, and she gave birth…

Colorado Free Press reviewed an unstamped copy of the filing as well as five attached exhibits, including the pardon and two exhibits about the Whiskey Rebellion. In the motion, Peters argues that the Colorado Court of Appeals lacks jurisdiction to adjudicate the appeal because a full and unconditional presidential pardon issued on December 5, 2025 extinguished all punishment and legal consequences arising from her election-related conduct. The state’s position is that the President lacks the authority to…

The U.S. economy just roared to life with a staggering 4.3% annual growth rate in the third quarter of 2025, as reported by the Commerce Department.This explosive growth, covering July through September, marks the fastest pace in two years and obliterates economists’ timid predictions of just 3.2%, Breitbart reported. For hardworking taxpayers, this is a welcome relief after years of economic uncertainty, as consumer spending jumped to a robust 3.5% annual rate, up from 2.5% in the prior quarter. This surge translates directly to more financial stability for families, with stronger demand driving business confidence. But let’s not pop the…
Another scandalous document tied to Jeffrey Epstein has been exposed as a complete sham by none other than the Department of Justice.On Tuesday, the DOJ dropped the bombshell that a supposed letter from Epstein to convicted predator Larry Nassar was nothing but a fabrication, riddled with inconsistencies and falsehoods, the New York Post reported. For hardworking taxpayers, this kind of deception isn’t just a headline—it’s a direct hit to trust in our institutions, costing millions in investigative resources to chase down fake leads. From a conservative standpoint, every dollar spent on debunking hoaxes is a dollar not spent on real…
(The Center Square) – Many illegal immigrants in California will become ineligible for Medi-Cal coverage in the new year, according to new guidance from state officials.The Department of Health Care Services, which administers the state’s Medicaid program, called Medi-Cal, announced the move in August. The department stated on its website that immigrants with “unsatisfactory immigration status” will not be able to sign up for Medi-Cal on Jan. 1.

An Arizona legislator wants voters to decide whether school sports are designated male, female or co-ed.The Protect Girls’ Sports in Arizona Act (HCR2003) is from state Rep. Selina Bliss, R-Prescott. Bliss said it reinstates and strengthens the Save Women’s Sports Act of 2022 (Senate Bill 1165), which bans transgender athletes from competing in girls’ sports. Implementation of SB1165 has been delayed by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. “What my ballot referral will do to complement that is to expand the provisions of SB1165 by including all schools and sports associations, so there’s the difference,” Bliss told The Center Square.…

A limited ban on stock trading by Congress might get a vote next year after a 2012 law did not do enough to stem the practice that critics say is legal insider trading.The Center Square has been investigating the trades of lawmakers on key committees, finding trades that raise questions about the actions and timing. Since 2022, members of Congress have introduced measures to ban lawmakers from trading stocks altogether. Both last year and this July, the Senate Homeland and Governmental Affairs Committee advanced a stock-ban bill. Neither chamber has scheduled a vote on legislation despite overwhelming public support for…
Debate over gun control often assumes that removing firearms removes violence. But Europe’s experience suggests something more complicated: policy may change the weapon, but it does not eliminate the impulse toward violence.Only about 20% of the homicides in the European Union are tied to gun violence most years, according to Eurostat data, compared to around 75% in the U.S. Though figures vary from year to year, in 2023 (the latest year that has comprehensive data), about half of the nearly 4,000 homicides in the 27 European Union member states took place from sharp objects like knives or broken bottles and…
The animated movie David – celebrating one of Judaism’s greatest heroes – had a blockbuster debut even as both sides of the political aisle deal with a growing scourge of antisemitism.“There’s such a horrible spirit against Israel,” Brian Stivale, the voice actor for the prophet Samuel in the Angel Studios movie, tells Just the News. “There’s such an antisemitic spirit rising up, especially right now. It’s almost as bad as, you know, pre-Nazi Germany.” To be sure, antisemitism appears to be on the rise across the political spectrum in the U.S. – acutely after the Hamas-led October 2023 terror attack…
President Donald Trump on Wednesday night wished Americans a “merry Christmas,” and included a special message for Democrats, who he claimed were “failing” in their effort “to destroy our Country.”The president is spending the Christmas and New Year’s holidays at his Mar-a-Lago resort in West Palm Beach, Florida.

We have shared this amazing video in the past and it was rather popular so we wanted to share it again this year. Christmas flash mobs have become popular, but this one was done back in 2010 when few people had ever even heard of the practice. It happened at a Macy’s department store in Philadelphia. A number of different singing groups from the area posed as shoppers and at an appointed time, they all simultaneously began singing the ‘Hallelujah Chorus’ from Handel’s Messiah. All of the other shoppers in the store stopped what they were doing to listen, and…

During the LA wildfires, I noted that the LAFD was being run by three lesbians named Kirsten. (Not a joke.) Crowley’s status as the first LGBTQ fire chief appears at the top of her bio on the LAFD site. It’s what got her on the Kelly Clarkson show under the headline, “Meet LAFD’s First Female & LGBTQ+ Fire Chief”. Kristina Kepner, the first lesbian Assistant Chief and a graduate of the Harvard Kennedy School for Managing Diverse Organizations, was accused of a domestic violence incident involving her girlfriend. Kristine Larson, who has a degree in Sociology, headed ‘Equity on Fire’, an…
Screencap of Twitter/X video. Kamala Harris recently appeared on the ‘Rich Little Broke Girls’ podcast and at one point was handing out dating advice for young women when she launched into her trademark crazy cackle. Her dating advice is about as coherent as any of her word salads on any other topic and her laugh is as goofy as ever. She apparently also thinks that making fun of her laugh is sexist because of course she does. Townhall has details: “I don’t aspire to be humble. Humility, yes, is very important,” Harris said when asked about the criticism that she…

The Kennedy Center canceled its annual Christmas Eve concert Wednesday after the program’s host backed out over opposition to the center’s board adding President Donald Trump’s name to the venue.

Gavin Newsom on Meet The Press Gavin Newsom has been vowing to end homelessness in California for years. It all began way back when he was the mayor of San Francisco. Now he is the governor of California and he is still doing it. The only thing that has changed in California over the years is the number of homeless people, which just keeps going up. And of course, the only reason he is doing this now is because he is planning to run for president in 2028, not because he actually cares about the people of California. NEW: We’re…
Asked to cite the most significant event in history for an oral exam, the late great Justice Scalia thought it was a softball question and picked an event he considered important. “Wrong!” His inquisitor corrected him: “No, Mr. Scalia; it was the Incarnation.” This seminal event on the Christian calendar is celebrated by the faithful and unfaithful alike. Some merely acknowledge it in their actions and time off, while others take the religious significance to heart and fully participate in the seasonal countdown of Advent.And while the secular celebration with all its associated trappings now largely undermines the religious significance,…
In Saudi Arabia, women have to get approval from a male guardian to get a job or leave the country. In Israel, women can run the country. In Saudi Arabia, women have to wear a burka (called an ‘abaya’) while in Israel, they can wear what they want. But CNN decided to run a story claiming that it’s better to be a woman in Saudi Arabia than in Israel. While that contention would explain CNN, the media and the entire liberal establishment’s backing for mass Muslim migration, the ‘news network’ decided to run a story claiming that under Netanyahu, women…

Honduran election officials on Wednesday afternoon called the country’s presidential election for conservative candidate Nasry Asfura, who was endorsed by President Donald Trump.Trump made his official endorsement just weeks before the general election, and declared that the United States would not throw “good money after [the] bad” if Asfura does not win.

The election officials made the official call nearly a month after the Nov. 30 election, and announced that Asfura received 40.27% of the vote. The result meant he narrowly defeated four-time presidential contender Salvador Nasralla of the…
A Dallas house that has drawn attention for its past decorations has done it again — defying critics with a Grinch-themed display.

Differences between federal law, immigration status, and state programs in health coverage The debate over health coverage for immigrants in the United States has become one of the most manipulated topics in political discourse. Limited humanitarian exceptions—established by law for decades—are often confused with ideological expansions promoted by some states that go far beyond the federal framework. To understand the issue rigorously, it is essential to distinguish between what federal law allows, what it expressly prohibits, which benefits depend on immigration status, and which programs have been created unilaterally by state governments using their own funds. The federal legal framework:…
