She told her 2.9 million TikTok followers Trump now has a fresh, dehumanising moniker in the wake of the Kennedy Center board voting to rename the venue “The Donald J. Trump and The John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts.” The faded A League of Their Own cast…
During an appearance on Saturday’s broadcast of Newsmax TV’s “America Right Now,” political commentator and former moderator of NBC’s “Meet the Press” Chuck Todd addressed the public’s apparent decline in trust in the media.

Left-wing late-night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel might live in Hollywood, California – roughly 5,000 miles from the UK – but that hasn’t stopped him being tapped to deliver this year’s Alternative Christmas Message across the pond on local outlet Channel 4. The presenter’s ABC talk show was yanked off air in September after he made despicable comments about slain conservative icon and free speech martyr Charlie Kirk. The BBC notes Kimmel was reinstated a week after his removal and will take that experience to frame an argument about the spread of “fascism.” The full quote from his address will…

As a result, Washington would impose a “total and complete blockade” on tankers carrying sanctioned oil into and out of the country. Shortly thereafter, the U.S. government announced its first seizure of an oil tanker believed to be heading to…
Comedian Dave Chappelle has addressed the September murder of the Turning Point USA founder and conservative media personality Charlie Kirk in his new stand-up comedy special, The Unstoppable, saying “that’s a reach” to any comparison between the fate of Kirk and the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. in 1968. The performer specifically took umbrage at the move by some to call Kirk, “this generation’s Martin Luther King.” “If you talk for a living and see Charlie Kirk get murdered that way, Imma be honest, n—-: I was shook,” Chappelle said in the Netflix stand-up show. “I mean, Charlie Kirk was the…
