President Donald Trump told reporters on Friday that he plans to use his veto power on bills or resolutions Democrats want to pass if they win in either the House or the Senate, with days to go before the November midterm elections.“I think the Republicans are going to win—but if there was gridlock, what happens is I veto everything, and then the Democrats come and want to make a deal,” he said.When pressed further on congressional gridlock if Democrats win Congress, he responded by saying that historically, a president would then “veto, veto, veto, and they come and they say,…
The national average price for a gallon of regular gasoline declined six cents for the week ending Thursday, driven by the shift to winter-blend gasoline.Winter-blend gasoline is “cheaper to produce and costs less for consumers,” AAA said in an Oct. 22 statement. The blend is cheaper because it uses butane and other less costly additives than the summer blend.Another reason for the price decline is decreased travel. Colder temperatures keep drivers indoors, reducing demand for fuel and putting downward pressure on gas prices. AAA estimates that fuel prices can dip between 10 and 30 cents per gallon during winter months.However,…

Specifically, birth rates decreased for females between the ages of 10-14 from 0.2 births per 1,000 females in…
Most people think Democrats will impeach President Donald Trump again if they win on November 3, even though the past two impeachments were ineffectual – and more think it’ll increase Trump’s popularity than believe it’ll make him less popular, a new Politico poll reveals. What’s more, just as many of those planning to vote Democrat on Nov. 3 say their candidates should conceal their plans to impeach Trump – if it’ll help them win – as say they should admit they’ll impeach, even if it hurts their campaigns. In a national poll of U.S. adults conducted October 16-19, Politico asked…
MANCHESTER, England (CN) — Britain’s unelected House of Lords advanced legislation Friday that would require the government to consult on replacing the chamber, reigniting a debate over who should scrutinize the country’s elected lawmakers.Carmen Smith, a member of the Welsh nationalist Plaid Cymru party who introduced the bill, told peers that successive governments had failed to act on proposals to reform the upper chamber.“We’ve never been short of ideas, and we’ve never been short of debate, but we have been short of action,” she said.The House of Lords approved the bill at second reading, a parliamentary stage at which lawmakers…
Sorry Politico, but you can’t just make wild-eyed statements about Elon Musk’s political spending and think you’re so above reproach that no one would bother to fact-check you. Following news that Musk brought his total 2026 midterm spending to “more than $422 million” with a new $75 million cash dump, Politico senior data reporter Jessica Piper haphazardly proclaimed that “there is no precedent in modern American history for any donor spending as much as he has.” She included no parameters to hedge that statement. Had she been more careful, she would have avoided critics bringing up contrary evidence, like CNBC’s…

He’s been dogged by questions about his anti-Israel stances– which tend to irk committed Christians, including in the Black community.

The left is not too shy about letting you know who they fear most; just look to their rhetoric for a not-so-subtle tip of their hand. Case in point: Jennifer Welch, the insufferable co-host of the “I’ve Had It” podcast, who has an unhealthy fixation on Vice President JD Vance. In a rant about Vance potentially being president, Welch called on her minions to keep “pistols firing at all times” at the Republican, who she claimed was unfit as a father, husband, and vice president. And to drive home her hatred of Vance, she called him an “antichrist-style sociopath” and…

Additionally, Alyssa Farah Griffin, one of the show’s purported conservatives, promoted independents over Republicans. “I think the idea of independents as a party is a longer conversation that requires a lot of investment,” Navarro said, waving…
A parody ad using the likeness of Sydney Sweeney is earning accolades for highlighting the absurdity law-abiding voters have to deal with. Californians for Voter ID dropped the ad in support of Prop 39, a citizen-led constitutional amendment on California’s November 3rd ballot that would prohibit citizens from voting unless they present a government-issued I.D. And what better way to draw attention to the pro-ID proposition than to tease a glimpse of the super-sexy actress? But, not so fast. Just like the theme the ad promotes, these days voting without ID is ludicrous. Republican gubernatorial candidate Steve Hilton called the…
