One mother of an alleged victim described the delayed email as a "completely sanitized letter" that minimized the harm done.

Tennessee GOP Rep. Tim Burchett is proposing that Congress eliminate the capital gains tax on home sales, arguing the money the IRS takes from sellers is "redundant" and that allowing them to keep and reinvest it would help stimulate the U.S. economy. "I'm going to prepare some legislation to take away the capital gains tax on a piece of property, and you know, it's just redundant," he said on a recent John Solomon Reports podcast. "When you tax people less, they don't stick it in a doggone pillow case under their bed. They reinvest it. They put it in a bank, and that bank loans it out to other people, or they buy something, buy an automobile, and under Trump's plan, American automobiles, the reduction is there."
President Trump's director of the National Counterterrorism Center, Joe Kent, announced his immediate resignation Tuesday, citing the decision to begin a war against Iran when "Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation."
Kent, nominated by the president and confirmed by the Senate last year, posted his resignation letter on X Tuesday morning, saying he "cannot support sending the next generation off to fight and die in a war that serves no benefit to the American people nor justifies the cost of American lives."
President Donald Trump spent his first year back in power disparaging US allies. Now he wants them to help America in the Iran war - and they are none too enthusiastic.
In the NYC luxury real estate market, defined as homes asking at least $4 million, contracts rose over 24% in the 60 days after Zohran Mamdani's November 2025 election compared to the 60 days before. This indicates confidence in the NYC luxury real estate market and not an exodus of the wealthy from NYC as hatemongers tried to spread during the campaign if Zohran Mamdani (D) was elected NYC mayor.
Another Reason New Yorkers Voted for Zohran Mamdani
Infighting has erupted amongst conservatives online after a major voice in the MAGA media sphere expressed belief in the conspiracy theory claiming that President Donald Trump staged his 2024 assassination attempt. This theory about the assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, on the presidential campaign trail is not new, but has to date largely circulated among fringe left-wing sources. The accusation hinges on several aspects of the incident, including the lack of scar left on Trump's ear, the situational wherewithal needed to defiantly raise his fist afterward, and the fact that the alleged gunman had supported him in the past, leading some to suspect that it was staged for political gain in an election that had existential stakes for Trump.

America is going through something similar to 9/11 and will be far more influential. The damage to our national security, our economy, our relationship to the rest of the world cannot be understated. This is truly the death of the American empire. We are showing ourselves to be a paper tiger. We have denigrated our allies for the past 14 months and now they are saying F U. We are destroying the economies of ME countries who were desperately trying to move from a post-colonial world to economies based on something other than natural resource exploitation. Read more
As a lot of us already know, there are quite a few strange coincidences and odd facts related to Trump over the years, as his name has seemed to be a part of our culture going back a long time before his even becoming president.
That matters because another VERY odd coincidence has now come to light " involving Trump " and this one is so crazy it just might leave you shaking your head in disbelief.
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) -- Former U.S. Sen. Kyrsten Sinema acknowledges having a romantic relationship with a member of her security detail that began while she was a lawmaker, according to legal documents. But she also contends she shouldn't be subject to a lawsuit by the man's ex-wife who blames Sinema for the marriage breakup. The North Carolina federal court litigation seeks financial damages from Sinema, who represented Arizona in the U.S. House and later the Senate for one term that ended early last year. Heather Ammel contends in a lawsuit that she and husband Matthew had "a good and loving marriage" and "genuine love and affection" existed between them before Sinema interfered, pursuing him despite knowing he was married.

Democrats' refusal to fund the Department of Homeland Security has exceeded any hypothesis of good faith. It is an unpatriotic attack on America's frontline of defense during a time of war and potential Iranian sleeper cells, and an inexcusable burden on the department's employees. Last week, all Senate Democrats, except John Fetterman, again voted to block funding for DHS. Financed in part by malign foreign powers who seek to defeat the United States, radical left activists have co-opted the Democratic Party. Rep. Brad Schneider of Illinois, head of the supposedly centrist New Democrat Coalition, typifies the illogic. "My concern about DHS is their absolute disregard of the Constitution and American citizens' civil rights," he said, adding "So until we see officers who abuse citizens' civil rights held to full account, until we restore full congressional oversight, I'm not giving another penny to ICE and CBP."
A frustrated truck driver posted on Reddit to share dashcam footage of the road hazard created by a new form of advertising. "I hope this doesn't become normalized," said the original poster, sharing their video in r/Truckers.
U.S. President Donald Trump stated that kamikaze sea drones, also called naval kamikaze drones or uncrewed surface vessels, are fake and created by artificial intelligence. He argued that if they existed, the U.S. would have destroyed them like other boats, and questioned why no one has seen them. The remarks sparked widespread discussion referencing their use by Ukraine against Russia's Black Sea Fleet.
In the West Bank, the IDF killed Ali Khaled Bani Odeh (37); his wife Waad Othman Bani Odeh (35); their son Othman (7) who reportedly had special needs and was blind; and son Mohammed (5). Two other children, Mustafa (8) and Khaled (11), were wounded. The family was driving home after holiday shopping. The IDF alleged that this father, who had his wife and four children in the vehicle with him, accelerated towards soldiers at a checkpoint who then opened fire on the defenseless family. An IDF soldier quipped afterwards: "We killed some dogs."

"As Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's war against the people in Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon, and Iran, repels more liberal Americans, many Democrats who consider themselves strong supporters of Israel have felt out of sync and uncomfortable."
