/0 Comments/in , /by

Ivy League university Dartmouth College is providing a “Democratic listening circle” and hours of psychological counseling to students following Vice President Kamala Harris’ election defeat, according to university documents obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation.

Dartmouth’s schedule of “post-election events” includes a two hour “Democratic listening circle,” described as “a supportive environment where Democratic voters can share their hopes, concerns, and reflections about our country’s direction.” The school also offered a five-and-a-half hour “Decompress Dinner” on Wednesday, in addition to three hours of mental health counseling on both Wednesday and Thursday.

“Be off the grid the day after the election,” the “Decompress Dinner” description reads. “Bring a book, a craft, and a friend to the lodge…Van ride and dinner included!”

Dartmouth is offering a listening circle for faculty as well as a “Bipartisan Listening Circle,” where “participants take turns speaking while others practice deep, respectful listening.” It will also provide open space for students to “process and discuss with food,” and one-on-one confidential meetings with a chaplain.

The Ivy League school has even organized a “Republican Listening Circle,” despite former President Donald Trump winning the election handily. (Read more from “Ivy Leaguers Offered ‘Democratic Listening Circle,’ Psychological Counseling Following Harris Loss” HERE)

President-elect Donald Trump announced Thursday that his 2024 campaign manager, Susie Wiles will be his Chief of Staff in his administration.

Wiles, who led Trump’s return to the White House alongside Chis LaCivita, has largely been praised for her disciplined and professional operation in the 2024 run. Heading up Trump’s second administration, Wiles will be the first woman to be appointed White House Chief of Staff.

“Susie Wiles just helped me achieve one of the greatest political victories in American history, and was an integral part of both my 2016 and 2020 successful campaigns,” Trump said in a Thursday statement. “Susie is tough, smart, innovative, and is universally admired and respected. Susie will continue to work tirelessly to Make America Great Again. It is a well deserved honor to have Susie as the first-ever female Chief of Staff in United States history. I have no doubt that she will make our country proud.”

Court Shoots Down Biden Admin’s Mass Amnesty Order For Hundreds Of Thousands Of Illegal Migrants

/1 Comment/in , /by

The Biden-Harris administration suffered a major defeat in federal court on Thursday amid its fight to provide amnesty for up to half a million illegal migrants living in the United States.

President Joe Biden’s executive order that attempted to provide a pathway to citizenship for hundreds of thousands of illegal migrants married to American citizens is unlawful, a federal judge in the U.S. District Court of the Eastern District of Texas ruled on Thursday. Biden’s order, which was first announced over the summer, was challenged by the Texas attorney general and a slate of other GOP-led states.

“Since day one, the Biden-Harris Administration has dedicated itself to the decimation of our immigration system and the erasure of our borders,” stated Gene Hamilton, the executive director of America First Legal, a conservative organization that led the court challenge against the order. “Time and again, the states stood up.

“And today, the great State of Texas and the courageous Ken Paxton, alongside a coalition of other brave Attorneys General, succeeded in stopping an illegal program that would have provided amnesty to hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens and paved the path for the largest administrative amnesty in American history,” Hamilton continued. “We are proud to stand alongside these patriots in defense of our great nation.” (Read more from “Court Shoots Down Biden Admin’s Mass Amnesty Order For Hundreds Of Thousands Of Illegal Migrants” HERE)

Trump May Have Just Stopped Massive Caravan From Approaching U.S. Border

/1 Comment/in , /by

Many migrants have lost hope of illegally crossing into the United States and have decided to turn around after hearing that Republican nominee Donald Trump won the presidential election, according to multiple reports.

A migrant caravan heading for the U.S.-Mexico border has shrunk to roughly half its size as members accepted the fact that Trump would be re-taking the reins at the White House, according to a report from Reuters. An official from Mexico’s National Migration Institute told the outlet that the caravan dwindled to under 1,600 migrants, a sharp drop from its original size of 3,000 when it embarked on its northward journey on Tuesday in the southern Mexican city of Tapachula.

The official added that more than 100 individuals had asked for assistance from authorities on returning to Tapachula, but it’s not entirely clear where the rest of the caravan deserters are headed.

“I had hoped [Vice President Kamala Harris] would win, but that didn’t happen,” said Venezuelan migrant Valerie Andrade, according to Reuters.

Other migrants expressed hopelessness at Trump’s election victory, and even disdain at the historic levels of Latino support the Republican amassed in his landslide win. (Read more from “Trump May Have Just Stopped Massive Caravan From Approaching U.S. Border” HERE)

After Trump’s Victory, There Can Be No Unity Without a Reckoning

/1 Comment/in , /by

Back in July after the first Trump assassination attempt, I wrote that there can be no national unity, no burying the hatchet or cooling the rhetoric with people who have been encouraging political violence and pushing assassination prep for years. You can’t smack someone in the face with a hammer and then insist everyone calm down.

Trump’s election victory doesn’t change that. Those in the news media who spent years calling Trump a fascist and comparing him to Hitler, claiming he represents a threat to democracy and that he’ll use his presidential powers to go after his enemies, should not be forgiven. Their lies and nonstop propaganda should not be forgotten. No one should ever take them seriously again. When they try to engage the public square, they should either be ignored entirely or met with a wall of mockery and derision. They are enemies of the American people, whom they openly despise, and there can be no real unity with them no matter what they might say in the future.

Going forward, it should be a mark of shame to be associated with MSNBC, CBS News, and CNN. Same goes for The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Atlantic, and Politico. All the “prestige” media outlets that perpetrated lies, distortions, and unhinged rhetoric about Trump should lose so much credibility that their reader and viewer bases collapse, advertisers abandon them, and they get broken up and sold off for parts. If Laurene Powell Jobs wants to run a vanity magazine for her own entertainment, fine. But let’s not pretend it’s a serious place where serious journalists work. We all know what it is now.

Legacy media outlets, the polling industry, the Democrat-funded nonprofits and the academics and activists who run them have all now been exposed as cogs in a giant propaganda machine. Kamala Harris was never ahead. She never had a chance of winning. There was no “joy.” She wasn’t “brat.” She didn’t even win the Democrat Party nomination, it was handed to her in a backroom deal. She isn’t relatable or cool, she’s the most cringey and fake person ever to run for president. Corporate media and the Democrats ran a massive psy-op on the American people to make them believe something that wasn’t true. And it failed. We should never forget that these people will say anything for the sake of power, so we should never trust them again.

For the government officials and institutions who tried to bankrupt and jail Trump, there should be more severe and formal consequences. On Wednesday it was reported that the Justice Department will be dismissing Special Counsel Jack Smith and dropping his cases against Trump before Trump takes office. That’s great, but Smith should not be allowed to simply walk away. He and everyone else at Biden’s DOJ who was involved in these lawfare cases against Trump needs to be investigated and held accountable for their actions.

Democrats Couldn’t Get Away With 2020-Style Election Shenanigans In 2024 Thanks To The Election Integrity Movement

/0 Comments/in , /by

The 2020 presidential election was marred by irregularities, insecure election practices, and last-minute rule changes that, as election integrity activists have since pointed out, benefitted Democrat Joe Biden. As The Federalist Editor-in-Chief Mollie Hemingway put it in her bestseller, the election was “Rigged.”

But four years later, President-elect Donald Trump won in a landslide in part because Republicans and conservatives mobilized like never before to build a massive election integrity network focused on ensuring free and fair elections.

Take 2020 for example. Republican observers “were either kept out, or allowed inside but kept too far away from the counting to see what was happening” at the Philadelphia Convention Center, as explained by my colleague Beth Brelje.

But following reports on Tuesday that Republican poll watchers were being “turned away” in Philadelphia, York, Westmoreland, Allegheny, Lehigh, Cambria, Wyoming, and Lackawanna counties, the Republican National Committee’s (RNC) was on top of it.

RNC Chairman Michael Whatley said in a post on X that the committee “deployed our roving attorneys, engaged with local officials, and can now report that all Republican poll watchers have been let into the building.” (Read more from “Democrats Couldn’t Get Away With 2020-Style Election Shenanigans In 2024 Thanks To The Election Integrity Movement” HERE)

Trump: ‘No Price Tag’ Will Stop Plan for Mass Deportations

/0 Comments/in , /by

President-elect Donald Trump said that no price tag will keep him from implementing his plan for mass deportation of illegal migrants once in office.

Speaking with NBC News on Thursday, the president-elect said that he would be working to make the border “strong and powerful” and that he would have “no choice” but to carry out his plan of mass deportations.

“We obviously have to make the border strong and powerful and, and we have to — at the same time, we want people to come into our country,” he said. “And you know, I’m not somebody that says, ‘No, you can’t come in.’ We want people to come in.”

During his campaign, the president-elect said that he would be carrying out the “largest deportation effort in American history.”

“A majority of Americans want mass deportations for illegal immigrants,” he said. “On Day One back in the White House, President Trump will begin the largest criminal deportation operation of illegal immigrants and restore the rule of law.” (Read more from “Trump: ‘No Price Tag’ Will Stop Plan for Mass Deportations” HERE)

Donald Trump Declares Victory: ‘God Spared My Life For A Reason’

/5 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump declared victory early Wednesday morning, after Wisconsin and Pennsylvania put him over the top in the race for the White House.

“Many people have told me that God spared my life for a reason,” Trump said, referring to the summer attempt on his life that left him bloodied and left one supporter dead and two others injured. . .

“This will truly be the golden age of America. That’s what we have, this is a magnificent victory for the American people that will allow us to make America great again,” Trump said in his speech. “We’re gonna make you very proud of your vote.”

Trump was flanked by his family at his campaign victory party in West Palm Beach, Florida. He was joined by vice presidential candidate Sen. J.D. Vance, R-Ohio, who also made remarks.

“We just witnessed the greatest political comeback in the history of the United States of America,” Vance said. “And after the greatest political comeback in American history, we’re going to lead the greatest economic comeback in American history.” (Read more from “Donald Trump Declares Victory: ‘God Spared My Life For A Reason’” HERE)

Here Are the Corporate Media Meltdowns You’ve Been Waiting For

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Democrats and the media aren’t taking the election results well after former President Donald Trump made a triumphant White House comeback complemented by a new GOP majority in the Senate.

Leftist supporters of Vice President Kamala Harris posted videos of themselves crying about the results on the internet, while the talking heads on CNN and MSNBC reflexively blamed racism for the Democrats’ historic loss.

“I am profoundly disturbed,” said The View’s Sunny Hostin on Wednesday, “that the 14th Amendment of the Constitution did not prevent someone who participated in an insurrection from becoming president of the United States.”

“I’m surprised at the result, but I’m not surprised,” Hostin added. “As a woman of color, I was so hopeful that a mixed-race woman married to a Jewish guy could be elected president of this country, and I think that it had nothing to do with policy. I think this was a referendum of cultural resentment in this country.”

On election night, CNN’s Van Jones held back tears when he similarly characterized Harris’ loss as a rejection of the left’s victimized form of identity politics.
