The Federalist: Trump Should Immediately Push A Family-Friendly Agenda
The Republican Party has officially shifted away from economic libertarianism towards a multiracial populism, especially evident in the upcoming 2024 election. Trump’s influence has led to significant support from diverse ethnic groups, marking a notable change in GOP dynamics.
This new direction, championed by figures like J.D. Vance, suggests a focus on populist social programs, including proposals for family leave and child tax credits. Despite some remnants of the old libertarian ideology, the party's transformation appears substantial and is likely to foster bipartisan cooperation on key issues.
The Telegraph: Marine Le Pen facing ban from 2027 election run in embezzlement trial
French prosecutors have requested a jail sentence and a five-year ban from public office for Marine Le Pen, leader of the National Rally party, amid her embezzlement trial. If convicted, this could prevent her from running in the 2027 presidential election.
The prosecution seeks penalties for Le Pen and 23 co-defendants accused of creating fake jobs at the EU parliament. They also demand fines of two million euros for the party and 300,000 euros for Le Pen. The trial continues as the far-right party gains momentum in Europe.
Fox News: What happens to the Gaetz House ethics report?
Rep. Matt Gaetz resigned from Congress shortly after being nominated by President-elect Trump for U.S. Attorney General. His resignation comes just days before a House Ethics report on allegations of sexual misconduct and drug use was expected to be released.
House Ethics Committee Chair Michael Guest confirmed that the investigation would cease with Gaetz's resignation. While some Republicans expressed relief at his departure, others questioned his potential confirmation as attorney general, citing concerns over his past actions.
GB News: French prosecutors seek JAIL and election ban for Le Pen preventing her from standing against Macron
French prosecutors are seeking a five-year prison sentence and an immediate five-year ban from public office for Marine Le Pen, alleging she misused EU funds through a scheme involving fake jobs in the European Parliament. The case involves 24 defendants and claims of diverting €6.8 million over a decade.
Le Pen has denied any wrongdoing, calling the prosecution's demands "outrageous" and asserting that they aim to deny the French people their voting choice. The trial is set to conclude on November 27, with a verdict expected in early 2025.
The Federalist: Voters Rejected Not Just Harris But Democrats' Politics Of Division
In the lead-up to the 2024 presidential election, Donald Trump experienced unprecedented support across diverse demographics, securing 312 electoral votes and a notable win in the popular vote. His appeal extended to traditionally Democratic voters, including significant gains among Hispanic and Black communities, as well as younger voters.
This shift signals a potential realignment in American society, as disillusionment with Democrat-controlled institutions grows. Voters are increasingly rejecting divisive politics and seeking unity based on core American principles, which they believe Trump embodies. The election results may indicate a long-term cultural and political transformation.
The Federalist: Trump Should Stop Feds From Hiding Docs By Classifying Them
Donald Trump has proposed a "Truth and Reconciliation Commission" to declassify documents related to government actions he deems abusive, reflecting his view of recent history as marked by illegitimate governance. He emphasizes the need for greater transparency in the U.S. government, which spends $18 billion annually on classifying information.
Bipartisan efforts, like the "Classification Reform for Transparency Act," aim to address over-classification, which hinders national security and public access to information. Advocates argue for a streamlined classification process and the declassification of files older than 25 years to restore public trust and accountability.

GB News: Rachel Reeves car tax changes could see critical vehicle type ‘phased out’ of the UK
The Autumn Budget announced by Rachel Reeves includes significant tax hikes for plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEVs), with benefit-in-kind rates set to rise from 5% to 18% by 2028-29. This shift indicates a strong push by the Labour Government towards fully electric vehicles for company car users, potentially phasing out PHEVs from fleets.
Experts warn that these changes will lead to increased costs for drivers and employers, prompting discussions about early vehicle replacements. Fleet managers may see a surge in requests for fully electric alternatives as PHEVs become less appealing due to the new tax structure.
