EXCLUSIVE: Tom Homan Holds Closed-Door Meetings With Chicago Democrats, Union Members, and Law Enforcement Including Alderman Raymond Lopez in Direct …
December 11, 2024
Incoming Border Czar Tom Homan’s recent trip to Chicago received widespread attention from the media on Monday. However, The Gateway Pundit has direct access to sources inside closed-door meetings with Chicago officials and Homan. On Monday December 9th, Terry Newsome of Behind Enemy Lines brokered closed-door meetings between Homan and high-level DEMOCRAT politicians, including Alderman Raymond Lopez. Additionally, on hand were union members, law enforcement officials, other Democrat politicians (who wish to remain anonymous), and prominent figures in the African American and Latino communities. As The Gateway Pundit reported, Homan has promised to prosecute Mayor Brandon Johnson if he stands in the way of Federal law enforcement activities to deport illegal aliens. According to Newsome, the closed-door meeting was “collaborative.” The goal is to work with the federal government, not against it, as it pertains to removing dangerous criminals from neighborhoods. Newsome describes Homan’s approach as, “focused with an emphasis on safety.” Homan’s concern is that the City is detaining criminals only to release them back into the general population where they… Read the full article here […]

(Photo by CHARLY TRIBALLEAU/AFP via Getty Images) OAN Staff Blake Wolf4:30 PM – Wednesday December 11, 2024 “Wanted” posters of top healthcare executives have been popping up around New York City in the wake of the point-blank assassination killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. Advertisement The posters feature pictures of top healthcare CEOs along with an explanation for justifying the murder. “UnitedHealthcare killed everyday people for the sake of profit. As a result Brian Thompson was denied his claim to life. Who will be denied next?” and “Wall Street CEOs Should Not Feel Safe, Deny, Defend, Depose,” were seen on the posters. The posters also featured the words “DENY…DEFEND…DEPOSE,” which were the three words engrained on the bullets shot by the suspected gunman, Luigi Mangione, who murdered Thompson outside of a Midtown hotel last week. Thompson’s photo was crossed out in a red “X” on scaffolding in Lower Manhattan. In response, health… Read the full article here […]

New UK Play Reveals the Gulf Between the Left’s Fantasies and Reality – PJ Media
December 11, 2024
The left is at war with reality and is always busy constructing a fantasy world in which its delusions are true. The construction of these fantasies has become a veritable cottage industry, and that industry is booming in Britain even more than it is in the U.S. A new play shows how it works, and how far from reality the left has really strayed. On Saturday, The Spectator reviewed a new play called “Expendable,” which you can catch, if you have the stomach, until Dec. 21 at London’s venerable West End theatre, The Royal Court. According to The Spectator, “Expendable” is “an urgent bulletin from the front line of the grooming gang scandal in the north of England.” The Royal Court website is no less effusive, saying: “Playwright Emteaz Hussain‘s Expendable spotlights the often-overlooked voices of Pakistani women, delving into the shortcomings of law enforcement, politicians, and the media.” Wow! A play about the grooming gang scandal? It might have seemed for a fleeting moment as if the Sceptered Isle, which of late has been behaving more like the Blinkered Isle, was actually coming to its senses. Shedding some light on the… Read the full article here […]
Democrats Are Running to ‘Social Media Ghettos’ Like Bluesky to Avoid Debating Their Ideas
December 11, 2024
On Wednesday’s “Alex Marlow Show,” X Strategies CEO Alex Bruesewitz said Democrats will marginalize themselves online by running to places like Bluesky. Bruesewitz said, “I think the debate is important on X, and that’s why, like, all of the Democrats are trying to run to this Bluesky app and they’re going to push themselves into the social media ghettos instead of staying and fighting, [etc.]” But there are tribes on X and people’s minds aren’t being changed very often. “The Alex Marlow Show,” hosted by Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow, is a weekday podcast produced by Breitbart News and Salem Podcast Network.

‘Proud Feminist’ Justin Trudeau Lectures Americans For Refusing To Elect Kamala Harris
December 11, 2024
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau suggested that women’s rights were “under attack” in the United States while commenting on President-elect Donald Trump’s decisive win over Vice President Kamala Harris. Trudeau made the comments while speaking at the Equal Voice Foundation, an organization that works to advance “gender equity” in Canadian politics. Describing himself as a “proud feminist,” Trudeau expressed disappointment in his neighbors for voting against Harris. YOURS FREE: Claim Your ‘Trump Victory’ Coin NOW! “It wasn’t supposed to be that way. We were supposed to be on a steady, if difficult sometimes, march towards progress. And yet, just a few weeks ago, the United States voted for a second time to not elect its first woman president,” the prime minister said. “Everywhere, women’s rights and women’s progress is under attack, overtly and subtly. But I want you to know that I am and always will be a proud feminist. You will always have an ally in me and in my government.” Trudeau’s comments were widely met with ridicule on X. “He’s such an insufferable tool,” platform owner Elon Musk said in response…. […]
Voters beware: Centrist promises often mask a radical agenda
December 11, 2024
The “moderate Democrat” is like the tooth fairy — a feel-good fantasy you want to believe in but that doesn’t really exist. Many reasonable people got excited when Rep. Seth Moulton’s post-election comments appeared in the New York Times, in which the Massachusetts Democrat and father of “two little girls” said he didn’t want them “getting run over on a playing field by a male or formerly male athlete.” Moderate Democrats are a relic of the past. A Tom Daschle or Joe Crowley could never get elected under today’s radicalized Democratic umbrella. Yet for merely suggesting that Democrats should shift their messaging on transgenderism, Moulton drew swift condemnation, with Steve Kerrigan, chairman of the Massachusetts Democratic Party, strongly rebuking the congressman’s remarks. But the truth is that Moulton is no level-headed classical liberal. He’s a pro-choice, pro-gun-control, pro-open-borders climate-change alarmist. He gets a lower score from the conservative Heritage Foundation than Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), Cori Bush (D-Mo.), Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.), Jamaal Bowman (D-N.Y.), and Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.). Even so, Moulton was… Read the full article here […]
Will the Woke Left Doom Democrats for Years to Come? – HotAir
December 11, 2024
That question really sums up this interesting column by Thomas Edsall. His thesis is that Democrats are in real trouble because the only path out of the current quagmire the party is in would be to moderate. But that’s not something the party’s increasingly woke base will allow them to do. The whole essence of woke culture is to make every issue one of moral certitude where no political compromise can intrude. Simply put, they don’t want to talk about it, they want you to comply or else. He opens by noting some survey results that show voters believed Trump was closer to them politically than Harris. Polling suggests that Trump is ideologically closer to the median voter than Kamala Harris. Third Way, a centrist Democratic think tank, conducted a post-election survey asking voters to place themselves, Harris and Trump on a scale ranging from zero (very liberal) to 10 (very conservative). The mean response was 2.45 for Harris, 7.78 for Trump and 5.63 for all voters. He ties this to the apparent realignment of the parties, with Democrats becoming the party of white, college-educated people and Republicans becoming the party of blue collar workers. The… Read the full article here […]
DHS Announces New Rule To Allow Noncitizen Workers To Keep Jobs Longer While Awaiting Renewals
December 11, 2024
Authored by Chase Smith via The Epoch Times, The Department of Homeland Security this week announced a new rule making it easier and more reliable for certain noncitizen workers to keep their jobs while waiting for their work permit renewals to be processed. Starting Jan. 13, eligible applicants who file for their employment authorization documents (EADs) on time will automatically have their work authorization extended for up to 540 days, nearly three times longer than the previous 180-day maximum. The change will retroactively apply to applications filed on or after May 4, 2022, the agency said. DHS said the need for the rule change is “clear” as the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), the agency in charge of processing these requests, “received and processed a record number of EAD applications this year.” This permanent change is expected to help workers avoid forced job breaks caused by processing delays and give employers more certainty when planning their staffing needs, DHS said in announcing the changes on Dec. 10. Federal officials say this decision is a direct response to business communities that have called for more efficient ways to keep valued… Read the full article here […]
Sen. Collins: No Decision Yet on Vote for Defense Secretary Nominee Hegseth
December 11, 2024
Pete Hegseth has been meeting with Republican senators on Capitol Hill to solidify support for his confirmation. Defense Secretary nominee Pete Hegseth continued to meet with Republican senators on Capitol Hill to solidify support for his confirmation. On Wednesday, Hegseth sat down with Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) behind closed doors, after meeting with another moderate Republican, Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) the day before. After the meeting, Collins revealed that she still has not made a final decision on whether she would support his confirmation. The senator said that she would wait until a committee hearing and the completion of an FBI background check before committing to a vote. Collins described their meeting as substantive. “We covered a wide range of topics, ranging from defense procurement reforms to the role of women in military, sexual assault in the military, Ukraine, NATO, a wide range of issues,” Collins told reporters.
