The House Ethics Committee may meet on Wednesday to discuss its investigation into allegations against now-former Rep. Matt Gaetz one week after President-elect Donald Trump tapped him to be the next attorney general. The meeting comes after a woman reportedly told the Ethics Committee that she had sexual relations with Gaetz when she was 17 years old, according to ABC News. The Department of Justice (DOJ) had previously spoken to the woman, now in her...

David French, the conservative New York Times contributor and longtime anti-Trumper, has a provocative take on why the president-elect won. It’s the economy and the border, stupid. ‘I can’t help but think that if the withdrawal from Afghanistan hadn’t been a bloody mess (that’s when President Biden’s approval rating went underwater, and it never came back), if inflation hadn’t spiked and if migration hadn’t surged at the border, then we’d be having a different conversation....

An Italian village is offering a special deal to Americans looking for a reprieve following President-elect Donald Trump’s election victory by offering homes for as little as 1 Euro.

President-elect Trump isn’t reconsidering his nomination of Matt Gaetz to serve as his attorney general despite criticism over the pick and the uphill battle the former congressman may face during confirmation hearings next year.  Trump was in Boca Chica, Texas, to watch SpaceX launch its Starship rocket for its sixth test flight when he was asked about Gaetz.  ‘Mr. President, are you reconsidering the nomination of Matt Gaetz?’ Trump was asked.  ‘No,’ Trump replied before...

The nomination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has rankled some abortion opponents, who are concerned about his past statements expressing a liberal position on reproductive rights. Kennedy, a former Democrat who ran for president as an independent before backing Trump, has said in multiple interviews that while he’s ‘personally pro-life,’ he does not believe it’s the government’s role to interfere with a woman’s right to...

The White House has still not released its visitor logs for July, the month President Biden gave up his re-election bid, leaving questions about who was seeing and advising the president before he made the historic decision to drop out.  Despite consistently releasing visitor records at the beginning of each month throughout Biden’s term, the White House as of mid-November is far past its usual timeline for releasing guest records. It released its most recent...
