17+ min ago (431+ words) Secretary Stephen Miller's wife, Katie Miller, appeared on a CNN debate and ended up plastered all over the internet. Partly, her painfully loud and drab arguments are to blame, which also included dragging in Marjorie Taylor Greene. On Nov. 28, Katie Miller humiliated herself on air yet again on Friday's episode of CNN NewsNight with Abby Phillip. The MAGA pundit turned the debate into a shouting competition and even defended Nazi supporter Nick Fuentes. While doing all that, she also failed to make any coherent points and attacked her opponents every time she spoke. Speaking about Marjorie Taylor Greene, Miller insisted that her leaving the party doesn't indicate any MAGA revolt or internal rift. She claimed that Greene blew up Trump's phone multiple times a day, "like she was the center of the universe." Miller also mocked the former MAGA ally…...

President Donald Trump has been walking a fine line when it comes to H-1B visas " the visa that high-skill foreign professionals apply for to work in the US. These visas often go to physicians, software developers, engineers, university professors, and other specialty professions. Earlier this year Trump proposed a $100,000 fee for H-1B visas, a move that aimed to restrict the flow of legal immigrant workers into the US. But in a recent interview with Fox News host Laura Ingraham, the president defended the program and said H-1B visas were necessary "to…...

"I didn't think cannabis was a big deal," the 24-year-old said. "It was really socially accepted." This attitude is common. As more states legalize marijuana, use has become more normalized, and products have become more potent. But fewer of those who are addicted seek help for it. Pot use among young adults reached historic levels in recent years, according to a federally supported survey. Daily use even outpaced daily drinking, with nearly 18 million Americans reporting in 2022 that they use marijuana every day or nearly every day, up from less than 1 million three decades earlier. Studies show a corresponding increase in cannabis use disorder " when people crave marijuana and spend lots…...

22+ min ago (237+ words) During the United States' 2024 presidential race, Donald Trump aggressively reached out to Silicon Valley and the tech sector. SpaceX/Tesla/X.com leader Elon Musk was a major donor to his campaign, and venture capitalist David Sacks is playing a prominent role in President Trump's artificial intelligence (AI) push. But according to New York Times reporters Cecilia Kang, Tripp Mickle, Ryan Mac, David Yaffe-Bellany and Theodore Schleifer, Trump's bond alliance with Sacks and others in Silicon Valley is fueling some heated debates within the MAGA movement. The Times journalists add, "Mr. Sacks has positioned himself to personally benefit. He has 708 tech investments, including at least 449 stakes in companies with ties to artificial intelligence that could be aided directly or indirectly by his policies, according to a New York Times analysis of his financial disclosures." But Sacks is not universally loved within…...

At least four people have been killed and 10 wounded after a shooting during a family gathering in northern California's Stockton, local authorities said. The shooting took place at a child's birthday party, Stockton's Vice Mayor Jason Lee said in a Facebook post late on Saturday. "I am in contact with staff and public safety officials to understand exactly what happened, and I will be pushing for answers," he said. Heather Brent, a spokesperson for the San Joaquin County sheriff's office, said the victims included both children and adults. The shooting occurred inside the banquet hall, which shares a car park with other businesses. "We can confirm at this time that approximately 14 individuals were struck by gunfire, and four victims have been…...

36+ min ago (1002+ words) When Tucker Carlson hosted Nick Fuentes on his show last month, the response followed a familiar script. Critics condemned the platforming of a white nationalist. Defenders invoked free speech. Social media erupted. "We've had some great interviews with Tucker Carlson, but you can't tell him who to interview," President Donald Trump said on Nov. 17, 2025. "Ultimately, people have to decide." Fuentes is a 27-year-old livestreamer with openly antisemitic views. He has called Adolf Hitler both "awesome" and "right." But he has become impossible for the Republican Party to banish, despite repeated attempts by some party leaders. This dynamic reveals how fringe ideologies operate differently today compared to the mid-20th century, when institutional gatekeepers " political parties, law enforcement, the media " could more effectively contain extremist movements. And through their 21st-century methods of communication and operation, Nick Fuentes and his followers " the "Groypers" " have…...

56+ min ago (522+ words) Back in August, a publication written by and for US military members groused about the danger of National Guard troops performing lawn care in the nation's capital. Credibly ranked as having no political bias, The Military Times observed that the real threat to 2,300 troops deployed to D.C. wasn't Trump's imaginary "magnitude of violent crime" in war-torn domestic environs, but domestic assignments that rendered them sitting ducks. Military is legally and functionally different from law enforcement Despite the clarity of federal law, Trump has sent military troops to US cities in the absence of rebellion, insurrection, or widespread rioting, using a revolving door of justifications from "quelling violence in Democratic-controlled cities" and "cracking down on crime" to "supporting deportation initiatives," meaning, to help ICE, which is another form of domestic law enforcement. Whatever excuse he trots out, Trump appears to be doing…...
