/0 Comments/in , /by

A leftist TikTok user is threatening to key cars bearing Trump bumper stickers that she spots parked outside Mexican restaurants.

The woman appeared to be upset over President Donald Trump’s mass deportation efforts targeting criminal illegal aliens all over the country, MRC-TV reported on Monday.

“If I pull up to a Mexican restaurant and I see a truck, because let’s face it, it’s gonna be a truck, with a Trump bumper sticker, you’re getting keyed,” the woman wearing glasses said in the clip:

She then threatened further, “I don’t even want to see you at Taco Bell. The only thing you can eat for the rest of your life is plain white bread and mayonnaise. And I know that you were going to eat a lot of that anyway, but that’s all you deserve. You deserve nothing that tastes good for the rest of your life.”

Social media users were quick to share their thoughts on the woman’s message, one person calling her a “Deranged lunatic.”

Trump Announces Immediate Retaliation Against Colombia After Socialist President Turns Back U.S. Deportation Flights; Colombia’s President Buckles

/2 Comments/in , /by

By New York Post. President Trump vowed to launch a trade war with Colombia and impose an “emergency 25% tariff” on Sunday after the South American country turned back two US military deportation flights.

“I was just informed that two repatriation flights from the United States, with a large number of Illegal Criminals, were not allowed to land in Colombia,” Trump wrote Sunday.

“This order was given by Colombia’s Socialist President Gustavo Petro, who is already very unpopular amongst his people,” he said, adding that Petro’s decision has “jeopardized the National Security and Public Safety of the United States.”

In response, Trump said he would enact the “emergency 25% tariffs on all goods coming into the United States” — and claimed he’d raise it to 50% in a week.

He also called for a travel ban, visa revocations on Colombian government officials, visa sanctions on party members and government supporters, enhanced customs and border protection inspections of any Colombian national and banking and financial sanctions.

Colombia’s President Buckles Under Trump’s Trade War Threat — Offers Presidential Plane for Deportation Flights

By New York Post. Colombian President Gustavo Petro quickly reversed course about accepting flights of deported migrants from the US after President Donald Trump threatened emergency tariffs of up to 50% on the South American country for refusing to cooperate.

Petro not only acquiesced to Trump’s demands, he even offered up the official Colombian presidential plane to help shuttle migrants back to the country, calling it a response to “the Government’s commitment to guarantee decent conditions.”

“The Government of Colombia, under the direction of President Gustavo Petro, has arranged the presidential plane to facilitate the dignified return of the compatriots who were going to arrive in the country today in the morning, coming from deportation flights,” a translated official statement read in part.

The short-lived battle of wills between the world leaders kicked off this weekend when the US sent a pair of military flights loaded with deported Colombian migrants as part of the Trump administration’s pledge to crack down on illegal aliens.

A defiant Petro initially refused entry of the Colombian migrants from the US, and insisted the US cannot treat those being deported as “criminals.” (Read more from “Colombia’s President Buckles Under Trump’s Trade War Threat — Offers Presidential Plane for Deportation Flights” HERE)

Vance Clashes With CBS Host During Fiery Debate Over Refugee Program Paused by President Trump

/0 Comments/in , /by

Vice President JD Vance clashed with CBS host Margaret Brennan Sunday morning when the Republican defended President Trump’s decision to halt a refugee program that quickly barred hundreds of Afghans from reaching the US last week.

Vance tore into Brennan during a sit-down interview on “Face the Nation,” arguing the vetting process refugees currently undergo is not thorough enough and that his “primary concern as the vice president is to look after the American people.”

Brennan asked whether Afghan refugees, including some who worked with the US government, should be allowed in the country, and pointed out Vance said last year he doesn’t think the country “should abandon anybody who’s been properly vetted and helped us.”

But Vance was quick to insist he doesn’t think all the refugees have been vetted the right way.

“And now that we know that we have vetting problems with a lot of these refugee programs, we absolutely cannot unleash thousands of unvetted people into our country,” the veep added.

Divorce Rumors: Barack Obama Spotted at Ritzy Restaurant Without Michelle

/0 Comments/in , /by

Barack Obama was spotted at a ritzy restaurant in D.C. without Michelle Obama this weekend amid divorce rumors.

Obama had dinner at D.C. hotspot Osteria Mozza with Beltway insiders on Saturday and Michelle Obama was notably absent.

The Daily Mail reported:

President Obama was spotted arriving alone to a ritzy new Washington restaurant before he attended Trump’s second inauguration without wife Michelle.

Obama, 63, was met with cheers and applause from onlookers as he arrived at the DC hotspot Osteria Mozza on Saturday.

However, the grinning ex-president appeared unfazed by the absence of his wife of 32 years who also unceremoniously skipped President Carter’s funeral – amid rumors of divorce.

Indeed, Michelle’s no-show from both events comes as a wild flurry of speculation in Hollywood and DC of a blockbuster affair between the charismatic former commander-in-chief and Friends star Jennifer Aniston.

Trump’s ‘Bold’ Plan to Relocate Gazans to Jordan, Egypt Gains Support: ‘Only Real Way to Achieve Peace’

/1 Comment/in , /by

Many are applauding President Donald Trump’s “bold” proposal that Egypt and Jordan play a central role in resolving the decades-long Israeli-Palestinian conflict by absorbing refugees from war-torn Gaza, with some calling it the “only real way to achieve peace.”

On Saturday, President Donald Trump, who has previously brokered historic agreements in the region, suggested that Gaza could be cleared out after the devastation of the war started by Hamas on October 7, 2023, with Palestinians resettled in neighboring Arab nations for humanitarian reasons.

In a gaggle with reporters on Air Force One, Trump said:

I’d like Egypt to take people and I’d like Jordan to take people. You’re talking about probably a million and a half people and we just clean out that whole thing and say, “You know it’s — over the centuries, it’s had many, many conflicts. And … something has to happen.” It’s literally a demolition site … So I’d rather get involved with some of the Arab nations and build housing in a different location, where they can maybe live in peace. … Could be temporary, could be long-term.

Egypt and Jordan’s participation in the initiative could bolster their regional influence and attract significant international support, with large-scale resettlement projects leading to the creation of jobs, upgrading of infrastructure, and stimulating economic growth. The plan also offers a path toward lasting stability for Palestinians and the region.

Kansas is currently host to the largest tuberculosis outbreak recorded in U.S. history, health officials warn.

The state had 66 active cases and 79 latent infections in the Kansas City metro area, health officials reported on Jan. 17. Most of the cases have come out of Wyandotte County, though some have also been reported in Johnson County.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have also recently warned of a deadly “rabbit fever” on the rise as the bird flu continues to raise concerns.

“Currently, Kansas has the largest outbreak that they’ve ever had in history,” warned Ashley Goss, a deputy secretary at the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, to the Senate Public Health and Welfare Committee on Tuesday. . .

Tuberculosis is a contagious disease that is caused by a bacterial infection in the lungs that the CDC has been monitoring cases since the 1950s. (Read more from “Kansas Is Currently at Center of ‘Largest Tuberculosis Outbreak in Recorded US History’” HERE)

Hegseth Confirmed As Secretary of Defense After Chaotic Process

/3 Comments/in , /by

By Daily Caller. Pete Hegseth was confirmed Friday as the 29th secretary of Defense after a contentious Senate confirmation process.

The vote was split down party lines, with 50 votes for and 50 votes against and Vice President JD Vance set to break the tie, according to the unofficial tally. Hegseth will oversee the U.S. armed forces’ domestic and foreign activities as its civilian head.

“Pete has a unique perspective as a veteran of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and is unquestionably passionate about modernizing our military and supporting the brave patriots like himself who serve our nation,” Republican North Carolina Sen. Thom Tillis, who was rumored to have defected with his vote, said on X Friday. “I will support his confirmation and look forward to working with him to rebuild our military and advance President Trump’s peace through strength agenda.”

Republican defections included Republican Kentucky Sen. Mitch McConnell, Republican Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski and Republican Maine Sen. Susan Collins.

Hegseth’s confirmation hearing was tense, as his allegations of sexual assault and past comments on women’s role in the military drew harsh attacks from Democrats on the Senate Armed Services Committee. Despite the attacks, he drew praise from his Republican colleagues for his performance. (Read more from “Hegseth Confirmed As Secretary of Defense After Chaotic Process” HERE)

Hegseth confirmed: Vance comes to rescue after McConnell rebellion forces tiebreaker

By Washington Examiner. Pete Hegseth will be the next secretary of defense after Vice President JD Vance cast a historic vote to save his confirmation when Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) rejected the nominee at the last hour.

The turbulent nomination threatened to split Republicans on one of President Donald Trump’s most consequential Cabinet picks and sets up a tense future as McConnell surprised his conference in voting “no” a day after supporting moving the process forward.

In a vote that fell mostly along party lines, the upper chamber voted 51-50 to confirm Hegseth to run the Pentagon and its sprawling, $840 billion budget.

McConnell, the former GOP leader, emerged as a surprise “no” vote on Friday, joining Sens. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) and Susan Collins (R-ME) in opposition. Their defections forced Vance to travel to the Capitol to cast his first tiebreaker as vice president.

McConnell issued a lengthy statement defending his rejection of Hegseth, highlighting the charged geopolitical moment and the “gravest threats to U.S. national security interests since World War II.” (Read more from “Hegseth confirmed: Vance comes to rescue after McConnell rebellion forces tiebreaker” HERE)

Adam Schiff Extends Olive Branch, Trump Asks if He Was ‘Hit With a Baseball Bat’

Sen. Adam Schiff of California wanted to play nice with President Donald Trump on his trip to survey the wildfire devastation in California.

Mr. Trump, however, wasn’t ready to bury the hatchet with the man he dubbed “Shifty Schiff” and “pencil neck.”

“I was told that Schiff was going to travel with us to California. I wasn’t thrilled, to be honest with you,” Mr. Trump told reporters Friday. “And I saw him last night on television. It looks like he got hit with a baseball bat or something. What happened to him?”

Mr. Trump also said the fire in California “could have been put out” if elected officials “let the water flow.”

“So I think we are going to have a very interesting time,” he said of the trip. (Read more from “Adam Schiff Extends Olive Branch, Trump Asks if He Was ‘Hit With a Baseball Bat’” HERE)

Mexico Refuses to Accept U.S. Deportation Flight as Trump’s Immigration Overhaul Gets Into Full Swing

/1 Comment/in , , /by

Mexico refused to allow a plane carrying illegal migrants to land in the country on Thursday after President Trump dramatically beefed up security at the border and ordered mass raids and deportations since reclaiming the White House, according to military officials.

The deportation flight was blocked from leaving the US after two Air Force C-17 flights, each carrying about 80 deportees to Guatemala, successfully took off Thursday night, NBC reported, citing two defense officials and a third person familiar with the situation.

It was not immediately clear why Mexico blocked the plane, but tensions have flared between Trump and Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum since he threatened to slap 25% tariffs on Mexican goods in response to migrants illegally crossing the border.

A White House official told the outlet via text message that “the flights thing was an administrative issue and was quickly rectified.”

The flight rejection appeared to be confusion over the Department of Defense flight manifest, according to Fox News’ Bill Melugin, who cited a senior State Department official.
