Breitbart: EXCLUSIVE: National Reciprocity Has Bipartisan Support in the House
Rep. Richard Hudson (R-NC) announced bipartisan support for his H.R. 38, the Constitutional Carry Reciprocity Act, which would allow concealed carry permits to be recognized across all states, similar to driver’s licenses.

Fox News: Biden maintains he will not enforce TikTok ban, plans to punt to Trump administration
The Biden administration has decided not to enforce a federal law banning TikTok, leaving the decision to the incoming Trump administration. This follows a Supreme Court ruling that upheld the law, which requires the app's Chinese parent company to divest due to national security concerns.
The Supreme Court emphasized that while TikTok serves a significant user base, Congress's concerns regarding data collection and foreign ownership necessitate divestiture. The Biden administration's stance allows the new administration to determine TikTok's future.
Human Events: GEORGE HARIZANOV: The Democrats have perfected the art of losing
Donald Trump’s unexpected victory, winning all battleground states and the popular vote, underscores the Democratic Party's self-inflicted wounds. The party has lost credibility, alienated key demographics, and failed to connect with working-class voters, leading to a significant drop in support.
The Democrats' failure to address pressing issues and their reliance on outdated narratives have left them vulnerable. Trump's focus on border security and job creation resonated with many, including minority communities, while Democratic policies drove businesses and voters away. The GOP now stands poised to capitalize on these missteps.

Dame Andrea criticized the training, which included extensive questions on diversity topics, and stated it was inappropriate for her mother. After a year and a half, Valerie's membership was reinstated before her passing in December 2022. A Conservative spokesman noted the party is now under new management.

As President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration approaches, the California-based firm Crowds on Demand reports a decline in interest from Democratic groups for protest crowds compared to previous years. CEO Adam Swart attributes this to a lack of enthusiasm among Democratic donors and a recognition that past tactics have failed.
Swart suggests that Democrats should shift their approach from outrage to more positive, specific advocacy to engage moderate Republicans. He warns that continuing aggressive rhetoric could alienate voters and further hinder the party's chances in future elections.

The Telegraph: Trump can strengthen the Nato alliance, but not by threatening to leave it
Russia's aggression has prompted NATO members to meet their defense spending commitments, but Donald Trump's approach of pressuring allies may undermine the alliance's unity. His threats, rather than fostering cooperation, could invite adversaries to challenge NATO's strength.
To enhance NATO's effectiveness, the U.S. should use incentives rather than intimidation, promoting shared interests among members. Coordinated spending and joint capabilities can strengthen the alliance, especially in the face of renewed threats.
