Human Events: MIKE DAVIS: Tell your senators to ‘support Pete Hegseth like we did with Kash Patel’
Mike Davis of the Article III Project urged viewers to pressure Republican Senators to confirm Trump's cabinet picks, particularly Pete Hegseth for Secretary of Defense. He emphasized Trump's electoral victory as a mandate for change and highlighted Hegseth's qualifications.
Davis called for action, stating that Senate Republicans must support qualified nominees and reminded the audience of the presumption of innocence regarding past allegations against Hegseth. He challenged opponents to provide clear evidence if they wish to block his nomination.
Breitbart: Ernst Backs Hegseth after Meeting: ‘As I Support Pete Through This Process,’ Anonymous Smears Will Not Fly
Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA) is moving toward supporting Pete Hegseth's nomination as Secretary of Defense after productive meetings. Hegseth has committed to a full Pentagon audit and prioritizing servicemen's standards over quotas, while Ernst emphasizes the need for a fair confirmation process.
Despite initial hesitance, Ernst's support reflects a shift amid conservative backlash and coordinated media scrutiny against Hegseth. Other senators, including Tom Cotton (R-AR), have also voiced their backing, indicating a strong Republican push for confirming Trump's nominees.
Le Monde: TikTok is close to being banned in the US. Its last hope: Donald Trump
President-elect Donald Trump will face a critical decision regarding TikTok when he takes office on January 20, 2025, as a law banning the Chinese app will come into effect unless it is sold to non-Chinese interests. The app, with 170 million U.S. users, has been deemed a national security risk due to concerns over data privacy and potential foreign influence.
A federal appeals court recently upheld the law, rejecting TikTok's appeal based on First Amendment grounds, emphasizing the need to protect American users from foreign adversaries. Despite various proposals for a sale or data management solutions, the challenges of ownership transfer and high valuations complicate the situation.

The sculpture, carved from dolomite, may have served as a spiritual totem, highlighting the cave's significance for prehistoric humans. Evidence of wood ash suggests that torches were used to illuminate the chamber during gatherings.
