White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt criticized Democrats for their opposition to the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) audit of Social Security, asserting that President Trump and Elon Musk aim to eliminate waste and fraud. She emphasized that the initiative aligns with past Democratic promises to protect taxpayer dollars.
Leavitt reassured Americans that those who have contributed to Social Security will continue to receive their benefits, dismissing fears propagated by the media. Recent polling suggests a majority of Americans support DOGE's efforts to root out inefficiencies in the system.
Fox News: Liberal British HBO host tells Colbert he's staying in America and 'going down with the Titanic'
HBO host John Oliver expressed his commitment to staying in the U.S. despite his negative views on the Trump administration, likening the situation to the Titanic. He humorously stated he would "go down with the ship" and referenced the band that played until the end.
During an appearance on "The Late Show," Oliver discussed the importance of activism and protests against Trump, recalling the demonstrations against the Muslim ban in 2017. He emphasized that public dissent can energize those working within the system.
The Federalist: Zuckerberg Foundation Hides Grants To Leftist Lawfare Sponsor
Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg's Chan-Zuckerberg Initiative has faced scrutiny for its funding of leftist groups, particularly after revelations about its ties to the anti-Trump legal group Protect Democracy. Following the exposure of nearly $2 billion in grants to the Silicon Valley Community Foundation, the Initiative quickly revised its website to show significantly fewer grants.
The Chan-Zuckerberg Initiative has also funded various organizations opposing immigration enforcement and supporting leftist causes, including significant donations to FWD.us, which has campaigned against Trump’s policies. Critics argue that while Zuckerberg may not have directly funded Protect Democracy, his contributions to the SVCF facilitated support for anti-Trump efforts.
Fox News: The destructive politics of hate vs. the power of faith
Rev. Steve Caudle's recent sermon in Chattanooga sparked controversy as he called for violence in response to perceived threats against American values, citing global conflicts like those in Gaza and Ukraine. He controversially claimed that Jesus endorsed violence, suggesting that the U.S. is on the verge of bloodshed due to political tensions.
Critics argue that such rhetoric is dangerous and counterproductive, with parallels drawn to other political figures advocating for similar actions. Pastor Corey Brooks emphasizes the importance of faith over hate, advocating for constructive community efforts rather than violent responses to political disagreements.

Liberty Nation News: Illegal Immigrants Must Be Sheltered – to Build Housing for Illegals? - Liberty Nation News
A J.P. Morgan report indicates that the influx of undocumented immigrants is contributing to increased housing demand in the U.S., particularly in states like Vermont, which is already facing a severe housing shortage. Critics argue that this situation is exacerbated by progressive policies that prioritize immigrant needs over those of local residents.
Vermont's housing crisis is compounded by high property taxes and living costs, pushing many natives out of the state. While the government aims to increase housing supply, regulations and restrictions hinder development, leaving both newcomers and long-term residents struggling for affordable housing.

Fox News: Far-left activist Leonard Peltier, serving life in murders of 2 FBI agents, leaves prison under Biden clemency
Leonard Peltier, an 80-year-old activist convicted of murdering two FBI agents in 1975, has been granted clemency by former President Joe Biden and will be released to home confinement.

Peltier has spent nearly 50 years in prison, with multiple appeals for clemency denied by previous presidents.

Fox News: Don't let AI phantom hackers drain your bank account
The Phantom Hacker scam has emerged as a significant threat, costing victims, mainly older Americans, over $500 million since 2023.
