Nancy Lacore, a three-star admiral and the Chief of Navy Reserve fired by Pete Hegseth last year for being “disloyal” to Donald Trump, is running for Nancy Mace’s Congressional seat in South Carolina.
After decades of service to our country, a career that started as a Navy pilot and finished as a three star admiral, I was removed from my position without cause. I still have more to give, more to fight for, more work to do — and I am not done serving. Join my team at

Today I ate my piece of broccoli and my piece of chicken and then I bought 12 more homes
Trump’s Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent: "Someone, maybe your parents, for their retirement have bought 5, 10, 12 homes." Ah yes, the average American retirement plan: owning a dozen homes. So out of touch with ordinary Americans. https://t.co/atAyczUX2X

Technically, it's a new old conservative tax. It's a modified version of the renewable fuels regulations which were introduced in 2010. Remind me, who was in government in 2010?
Meet the NEW Liberal carbon tax. A lot like the OLD Liberal carbon tax. Liberals hiked their hidden carbon tax again — up 7¢/L this year, and headed to 17¢/L by 2030. That means higher gas prices and higher grocery bills. I will scrap it. So you can afford food, fuel and

Letting the KGB back into the Middle East without breaking a sweat.

I have never been a supporter of Donald Trump, but if Democrats cannot prevent him from invading a NATO ally and ending the alliance, I'll have no choice but to join his calls to cancel the 2026 elections.

Watching Ryanair troll Elon fans is hilarious, especially when they all take it so seriously. Gents, this is Ryanair: They suggested making aeroplane toilets fee-paying just for the free outrage-advertising. They are peak capitalism.

Ridiculous, dangerous, and petty. Note that one of the most important centers described here deals with information warfare against the Russians.
NEW: The Pentagon is planning to cut U.S. participation in several NATO advisory groups, affecting about 200 personnel. Most reductions will hit NATO’s 30 Centers of Excellence, which train forces in areas like naval combat. Staff won’t be replaced as tours end. -WP

I need someone to explain to me why Israel is such an important ally and why our number 1 trading partners aren't? Someone explain to me why our partnership with Israel is more important than an 80 year old alliance that defeated communism. Someone needs to explain why we're

This is extraordinary. The first speech articulating the new global order. One defined by middle powers that balance resources with principles to balance the dangerous forces of Great Powers pursuing strength for its own sake. A big moment in history is upon us.
For anyone who would like to hear Mark Carney’s outstanding Davos speech in full here it is. This is what true global leadership looks like. Canada should be immensely proud today, because they are leading the fight back when others dare not. 🎥 TikTok - https://t.co/BExGV2YIDq

Trump has abandoned Ukraine, broken his promises to the people of Iran, to wage war on Minnesota and threaten invasions of Denmark and Canada

This speech *is* one for the history books. But that’s less a compliment, than a coda. Carney has given us the words to mark the end of the ‘rules-based order’…by acknowledging it never really existed. It was a collective illusion. That now is over.

Remarkable speech from @MarkJCarney, urging allies to stop playing along with great-power intimidation. Compliance won’t buy safety, he warns. Stop appeasing bullies. Carney draws applause. Citing Václav Havel, he says it’s "time for companies and countries to take their signs

PM Mark Carney: It seems that every day we're reminded that we live in an era of great power rivalry, that the rules-based order is fading, that the strong can do what they can and the weak must suffer what they must. And this aphorism of Thucydides is presented as inevitable,

Holy shit! The President is trying to sue to prevent all DoJs from *EVER* releasing the second volume of the Jack Smith report. Given that Smiths testimony on volume one is public later this week, it suggests his Greenland antics could be part of his cover-up effort. As a
It's strange for the President of the United States to be litigating in his personal capacity against the Justice Department he runs — but he's seeking an order barring "current, former and future" DOJ officials from releasing Jack Smith's second volume. https://t.co/bBssvbN797
