DAN GAINOR: Trump defeated the press like David smacked Goliath. Can they recover?

Over 10 years ago, billionaire businessman Donald Trump announced he was running for the biggest office in the land. Three presidential races and two victories later, one thing is clear. Trump won his war with the media hands down. The press set out to destroy him. They failed. And he crushed them instead. At no time since the founding of our republic has the traditional media been less influential. President Trump has won lawsuits against two different news networks, watched as other news organizations refused to endorse his competitor in the presidential race and celebrated as public media had its taxpayer funding ripped away. This is another classic Trump upset victory that is reminiscent of David smiting Goliath. It didn’t go well for Goliath either time. Who could have predicted the turn of events? The establishment left-wing press have influenced everything in America for decades — politics, culture, sports and more. They helped decide both party's presidential candidates...

California allocating $35M to support illegal immigrants amid Trump's mass deportation agenda

California Gov. Gavin Newsom announced the allocation of $35 million in state funding to support illegal immigrants as the Trump administration carries out its massive deportation agenda. Newsom's office is releasing the money that the legislature set aside in the state budget to help philanthropic partners support immigrant families with food assistance and other resources, according to a press release. These funds are on top of funds the state already allocated to provide legal resources to those facing deportation. "While the federal government targets hardworking families, California stands with them – uniting partners and funding local communities to help support their neighbors," Newsom said in the release. "The urgent need grows as the Trump Administration accelerates mass detention, tramples due process, and funds authoritarian enforcement with over $170 billion. As the Trump Administration chooses cruelty and chaos, California chooses community." ...

Florida bill would let churches use armed volunteers instead of licensed security

A Florida bill could allow churches, synagogues, mosques and other places of worship to use armed volunteers for security without requiring them to hold a professional security license. Senate Bill 52, which unanimously passed the chamber earlier this month, would authorize houses of worship to use armed volunteers instead of hiring licensed security guards, which supporters say would help cut costs while still keeping people safe. "It’s now common for synagogues, churches, and mosques to have armed security," state Sen. Don Gaetz, who sponsored this measure, said to FOX 13. "Often using paid professional licensed security personnel." SHOOTING OUTSIDE SALT LAKE CITY LDS CHURCH LEAVES AT LEAST 2 DEAD, 6 INJURED: POLICE The legislation now heads to the state House. This measure comes amid concerns about violence targeting places of worship across the country. In August, a shooting at Annunciation Catholic Church in Minnesota left two children dead and around 20...

Why Trump is wrong to call dissenting Republican justices an 'embarrassment' for voting against his tariffs

They are "fools"! They are "lapdogs!" They are "disloyal"! They should be "ashamed," an "embarrassment to their families"! SUPREME COURT BLOCKS TRUMP TARIFFS IN MAJOR TEST OF EXECUTIVE BRANCH POWERS They are caving to pressure from "slimeballs"! And they are not just "radical" Democrats, but also "RINOs"! I've almost never seen Donald Trump as angry as he was after the Supreme Court struck down his tariffs as illegal.  When he was reading from his notes, it was barely controlled fury. When he kept going off script, he was dripping with disdain.  TRUMP REVEALS HIS 'NEW HERO' SUPREME COURT JUSTICE AFTER TARIFFS RULING On the Republicans In Name Only business, the stunner is that the 6-3 ruling was backed by two of his appointees, Neil Gorsuch and Amy Comey Barrett.  They joined the majority opinion by Chief Justice John Roberts, a consensus builder whom the president has tangled with ...

Soccer matches postponed after Mexico kills cartel leader ‘El Mencho’ near World Cup host

Four professional soccer matches in Mexico were postponed Sunday after violence flared near Guadalajara — one of the country’s host cities for the 2026 World Cup — in the wake of a military operation that left cartel leader Nemesio Oseguera, known as "El Mencho," dead. Liga MX officials removed two top-flight fixtures from the schedule — Querétaro’s matchup against Juárez FC in the men’s league and the women’s showdown between Chivas and América — and also called off two second-division contests amid security concerns. The disruption followed operations earlier in the day in Tapalpa, Jalisco, roughly two hours southwest of Guadalajara. Mexican authorities said Oseguera, a former police officer who rose to lead the Cartel de Jalisco Nueva Generación (CJNG), was killed during the operation. In the aftermath, vehicles were set ablaze and highways were blocked across nearly a dozen Mexican states, according to officials. MAJOR DRUG LORD 'EL MENCHO' KILLED IN MEXICAN ...

What’s driving the increase in violent incidents involving transgender individuals? Expert weighs in

As Americans grapple with yet another mass shooting perpetrated by a transgender individual, a broader national debate is unfolding over whether warning signs are being ignored and whether institutions charged with preventing violence are falling short.  A retired FBI agent says years of behavioral threat assessments reveal a troubling constant: in case after case, there was a point where someone could have stepped in — but the system failed to act. The Rhode Island shooting has also fueled fresh debate over violent crime and gender identity, with several high-profile commentators questioning whether a pattern is emerging. "Why are there so many violent trans shooters, and is #BigPharma fueling the violence?" Fox News host Rachel Campos-Duffy asked on X, framing her question around whether federal health officials are adequately studying mental health treatment, pharmaceutical use and hormone therapy in cases involving transgender suspects. SURVIVORS IN RHODE ISLAND HOCK...
