The Western Journal: Florida Takes 'Swift Action' Against FEMA After Discrimination Against Trump Supporters Comes to Light

Breitbart: Nolte: MSNBC’s Joy Reid Deletes Xwitter Account
MSNBC anchor Joy Reid deleted her Xwitter account, citing negativity and abuse as reasons for her departure. She had 1.9 million followers but stopped posting after Elon Musk's acquisition of the platform, opting to use it solely for news aggregation.
Reid's exit follows a trend among left-leaning figures who are uncomfortable with the current state of free speech on social media. Critics argue that this reflects a broader inability to engage with opposing viewpoints.
Breitbart: House GOP Moves to Make It Nine Times Harder to Vote to Vacate the Speaker
House Republicans have reached a deal to raise the threshold for triggering a motion to vacate the chair from one member to nine. This change, agreed upon by the House Freedom Caucus and Main Street Caucus, aims to protect Speaker Mike Johnson from potential ousting.
The new rule, part of a broader rules package for the 119th Congress, would prevent a single member from forcing a vote to remove the Speaker, a tactic used against former Speaker Kevin McCarthy. Johnson is set to be the GOP nominee for the speakership election against House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries.

Donald Trump’s recent cabinet picks, including Rep. Matt Gaetz for Attorney General and Tulsi Gabbard for Director of National Intelligence, have surprised political commentators. CNN's Scott Jennings noted that Trump is asserting his influence and aiming to shake up Washington with unconventional choices.
Jennings emphasized that Trump seems determined to appoint individuals who align with his vision rather than traditional candidates. He believes these selections reflect Trump's confidence and desire for a decisive administration. The confirmation process for these picks remains ahead.
Breitbart: Nolte: NYT Admits Celebrity Endorsements ‘May Have Backfired in This Election’
The New York Times reports that celebrity endorsements, once pivotal in political campaigns, have lost their effectiveness, particularly for Kamala Harris. Despite backing from major stars, these endorsements may have backfired, as voters are increasingly disconnected from Hollywood elites.
The changing landscape of influence now favors digitally native figures over traditional celebrities, who are often viewed as out of touch. The article suggests that the goodwill once enjoyed by stars like Oprah Winfrey has diminished, impacting their ability to sway voters positively.
Fox News: Federal court upends decades of environmental regulations
A federal appeals court ruled that the White House lacks the authority to issue binding environmental regulations under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). This decision challenges over 40 years of practice, asserting that the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) cannot regulate other federal agencies.
The ruling arose from a case involving the Federal Aviation Administration and highlights a separation of powers issue, stating that the Constitution does not allow the President to assume legislative powers. The CEQ's past regulations may now be deemed unauthorized, potentially leading to further appeals.
Breitbart: Nolte: ABC News in ‘Panic Mode’ to Bring Pro-Trump Voices to ‘The View’
ABC News is reportedly in "panic mode" as it seeks to hire conservative voices for shows like The View, which has been criticized for its anti-Trump rhetoric. Insiders suggest that finding a pro-Trump panelist is a priority after recent electoral losses.
However, the challenge lies in the show's current leftist makeup, making it unlikely that hosts like Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar would accept a Trump supporter. Critics argue that ABC has alienated a significant portion of the audience and cannot effectively represent diverse viewpoints anymore.

Forbes: Tesla Stock Dips Into Correction—Though Post-Election Rally Still At Nearly 25%
Tesla stock fell 5.2% on Thursday, entering correction territory, after reports that President-elect Donald Trump's administration may eliminate the $7,500 federal tax credit for electric vehicles. This follows a significant rally post-election, with shares down 10.3% from Monday's close.
Analysts suggest that the tax credit's potential removal could benefit Tesla in the long run, as it would impact smaller competitors more severely. Despite the recent downturn, Tesla's market cap has dropped by about $120 billion since Monday, while Elon Musk's net worth has decreased by $20 billion over the same period.
Forbes: Trump Promised To Make Your Medicines Cheaper. His Tariffs Will Make Them More Expensive

The impact of these tariffs may result in increased costs for both consumers and companies, as many pharmaceuticals rely on global supply chains. Experts warn that this could lead to a slowdown in research and development, ultimately affecting the availability and affordability of essential medications.
