‘Obvious f**king failure’: Even Hunter Biden admits dad’s Afghanistan exit was a total disaster
Hunter Biden criticized his father, former President Joe Biden, and his administration for the botched withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan, and he detailed his thoughts on the country’s immigration problem.
During an interview on the “Shawn Ryan Show” released Monday, Hunter Biden stated that he believes politicians on both sides of the aisle want to find a solution to immigration.
‘I think there was a better way to do it.’
Podcast host Shawn Ryan and Hunter Biden discussed how foreign nationals have been receiving abundant resources on the American taxpayer’s dime, including free hotel rooms.
“We need immigration. We need a vibrant immigration, but we don’t want immigrants that are coming here illegally, draining us of resources,” Biden told Ryan.
Ryan expressed concerns that more resources are being allocated to foreign nationals, while American veterans continue to struggle to obtain the necessary support.
Hunter Biden stated that he does not want immigrants prioritized over U.S. troops or other Americans.

During the five-hour conversation, Ryan asked Biden about some of his father’s failures as president. Biden responded by mentioning the botched exit from Afghanistan, during which a suicide bomber killed 13 U.S. service members.
Biden stated that he believes it was necessary to leave Afghanistan but criticized the execution of the withdrawal.
“I think one of the failures was the way in which they executed the withdrawal from Afghanistan. I think it was an obvious f**king failure. I think 13 Marines are dead. I think that there was a better way to do it,” Hunter Biden said.
“And I can blame it on his generals. I can blame it on the people, the way in which we did it. But my dad always knew this also, is that the buck stops with him,” he continued. “I think that that was a failure.”

Ryan asked Biden how his father feels about the withdrawal now.
“The same way that I do,” he replied.
“I don’t want to speak for my dad, but I know my dad, you know, is crushed by that,” Hunter Biden added, referring to the service members who lost their lives.

‘Incredible victory’: Federal judge prohibits trans-related grooming efforts in California schools
Democrat policies proudly championed in California by Gov. Gavin Newsom have for years kept parents in the dark about their children’s mental health and personal circumstances — particularly about whether their kids are masquerading as members of the opposite sex at school and undergoing a so-called “social transition” with the help of school staff.
Unwilling to lie to parents in violation of their faith and ethics, and facing the prospect of retaliation or dismissal over their dissent, Christian educators Elizabeth Mirabelli and Lori West filed a lawsuit in 2023 with the help of the religious liberty group the Thomas More Society.
By October, their legal challenge targeting secretive, grooming transgender policies across the state had evolved into a class-action lawsuit involving other adversely impacted teachers as well as parents.
U.S. District Court Judge Roger Benitez delivered Democrat officials and other gender ideologues a big upset on Monday, ruling in favor of the plaintiffs and against the grooming regime.
Benitez noted at the outset of his 52-page ruling that long before the advent of compulsory education in the U.S., “parents have carried out their rights and responsibility to direct the general and medical care and religious upbringing of their child.”
“It is a right and a responsibility that parents still hold,” said the judge.
Benitez affirmed that “parents have a right to receive gender information and teachers have a right to provide to parents accurate information about a child’s gender identity” — rights that Benitez confirmed have been violated by California officials.

According to Benitez, “the parental exclusion policies create a trifecta of harm.” For starters,
they harm the child who needs parental guidance and possibly mental health intervention to determine if the incongruence is organic or whether it is the result of bullying, peer pressure, or a fleeting impulse. They harm the parents by depriving them of the long-recognized Fourteenth Amendment right to care, guide, and make healthcare decisions for their children, and by substantially burdening many parents’ First Amendment right to train their children in their sincerely held religious beliefs. And finally, they harm teachers who are compelled to violate the [sic] sincerely held beliefs and the parent’s rights by forcing them to conceal information they feel is critical for the welfare of their students.
Benitez barred California Attorney General Rob Bonta, California Superintendent Tony Thurmond, and members of the California Board of Education from implementing or enforcing laws or policies in such a manner as to permit or require any employee in the state education system to:
mislead the parent or guardian of a minor student “about their child’s gender presentation at school” by way of direct lies, denial of access to educational records, or “using a different set of preferred pronouns/names when speaking with the parents than is being used at school”;”use a name or pronoun to refer to that child that do not match the child’s legal name and natal pronouns, where a child’s parent or legal guardian has communicated their objection to such use”; anduse incorrect pronouns or a false name in reference to a student “while concealing that social gender transition from the child’s parents.”
The judge also ordered state education officials to prominently feature the following statement in their LGBT “cultural competency” training materials:
Parents and guardians have a federal constitutional right to be informed if their public school student child expresses gender incongruence. Teachers and school staff have a federal constitutional right to accurately inform the parent or guardian of their student when the student expresses gender incongruence. These federal constitutional rights are superior to any state or local laws, state or local regulations, or state or local policies to the contrary.
“Today’s incredible victory finally, and permanently, ends California’s dangerous and unconstitutional regime of gender secrecy policies in schools,” Paul Jonna, special counsel at the Thomas More Society, said in a statement.
“The court’s comprehensive ruling — granting summary judgment on all claims — protects all California parents, students, and teachers, and it restores sanity and common sense,” continued Jonna. “With this decisive ruling from Judge Benitez, all state and local school officials that mandate gender secrecy policies should cease all enforcement or face severe legal consequences.”

3 males — ages 8, 11, 12 — steal car, crash into house; driver, 11, says he learned how to steal cars from YouTube: Cops
Three males — ages 8, 11, 12 — were arrested Saturday after stealing a car, leading cops on a chase, and crashing into a home, police in Newburgh Heights, Ohio, told Blaze News. Newburgh Heights is about 12 minutes southeast of Cleveland.
Police said officers received an alert just before 3 p.m. from its Flock Safety license plate readers about a stolen car driving westbound on Harvard Avenue around East 54th Street.
The 11-year-old stated that ‘something just came over his body, and he could not control it, he needed to take the car,’ police said.
A Newburgh Heights officer spotted the vehicle and attempted a traffic stop, but the driver fled from officers, police said.
The vehicle crashed into a home where three juveniles fled on foot, police said.

Officers quickly apprehended the occupants of the car and discovered that they were ages 8, 11, and 12, police said, adding that officers later determined the 11-year-old was the driver.
Police bodycam video shows the arresting officer drawing his gun on the 8-year-old and the 11-year-old males, who were cowering against a fence, and ordering them on their stomachs. One can be heard whimpering.

Soon the 12-year-old is seen approaching the officer, who orders him on the ground as well.

One of the males can be heard moaning that “I’m going to jail!” and “I’m sorry!”
As other officers arrive, one can be heard saying, “You should’ve thought about that before you got in the car.” He added, “And you suck at driving.” All three were placed in handcuffs.
The 12-year-old — who was wearing a gray hoodie adorned ironically with the words “Essentials: Fear of God” on the back — appeared to giggle and tell another male that “you gotta laugh.”

An officer yanked him away from the fence and said, “Real funny, ain’t it.” He replied, “No, ma’am.”
Police said they were seeking the following charges against the 11-year-old driver: failure to comply with order or signal of police officer and receiving stolen property. Police said they were seeking the following charges against the 8-year-old and 12-year-old: obstructing official business and receiving stolen property.
According to police, the juveniles stated they went to a store and saw “this car sitting there.” The 11-year-old stated that “something just came over his body, and he could not control it, he needed to take the car,” police said.
The 11-year-old said he and the 12-year-old “knew how to steal a car” from YouTube, police said.

“All three boys stated that they know right from wrong and admitted what they did was wrong,” police said. “While in our custody, they were concerned about how this would affect Santa coming to bring them presents.”
Police added that at one point, one of the juveniles said “he knew because of what they did he was going to get coal for Christmas.”
The juveniles were released to their parents pending the filing of criminal charges in juvenile court, police said.

Elderly bus driver says she was fired for posting ‘English-only’ sign — now the Trump administration is investigating
A Pennsylvania woman says she was forced to get food assistance benefits after being fired from her job as a school bus driver over a “racially insensitive” sign.
Diane Crawford, 66, told WHP-TV that she put up the sign because she thought it would help stop bullying on her bus.
‘I don’t know what else to do. I’m on Medicare and Medicaid now and SNAP. … I had to go on antidepressants because of this.’
“Out of respect to English-only students, there will be no speaking Spanish on this bus,” the note read.
Crawford worked for the Juniata County School District as a bus driver for three decades, including the last 12 years when she became a self-employed owner and operator.
She says her supervisor called her over the note and canceled the contract.
“I don’t know what else to do. I’m on Medicare and Medicaid now and SNAP,” Crawford said. “I had to go on antidepressants because of this.”
She also claims that she wasn’t allowed to explain why she wrote the note. It was meant as a warning to a bilingual child who had been riling up students in Spanish, according to Crawford. She suggested the student was bullying her as well as the other students.
“I didn’t know if he was bullying somebody, telling them to do something that they shouldn’t do,” Crawford said. “I thought I heard him saying, ‘Gordo,’ and — I understand some of (the words) — I don’t know who he was talking to, but I assume he is directing at me.”
“Gordo” in Spanish means “fat.”
She has filed a lawsuit asking for $30,000 for the bus and the route she purchased in 2024.
“I would like them to admit that they were wrong,” she added. “I don’t want to be in debt because what they did was wrong.”
On Sunday, U.S. Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon said her office was investigating the incident.
“This is deeply concerning. I have directed [the Civil Rights Division of the DOJ] to open an investigation into this situation implicating DEI wokeness,” she posted on social media.
The school district and Rohrer Bus Service released a statement to address the incident.
“Following the incident in question, the District and Rohrer jointly reviewed the situation in accordance with established procedures,” the joint statement reads. “The investigation concluded after the subcontractor provided a written admission confirming that the signage had been installed on her bus. At that point, the relevant facts of the situation were fully known and discussed among District and Rohrer leadership.”
They said they determined Crawford had violated the “standards and expectations” for drivers and expressed a commitment to providing a “safe and inclusive transportation environment” for all students.

Massachusetts mayor accused of not being able to speak English after requesting a translator during city hearing
During a local hearing, a Massachusetts mayor requested the use of a translator. Now critics are asking if he can even speak English.
Brian A. DePena (D) is the mayor of Lawrence, Massachusetts, a city of nearly 90,000. Approximately 82% of the residents of Lawrence are Latino, according to a 2023 report by WGBH.
‘I practice my English because it’s very important in America.’
Mayor DePena appeared in court earlier this month for a Peace Officer Standards and Training Commission proceeding, where former Lawrence Police Chief William Castro was facing city officials following the revocation of his credentials. Castro was accused of conducting an improper police chase and falsifying a police report.
According to reports, DePena testified on Castro’s behalf and requested a translator for the hearing.
In video of the hearing that has gone viral, a judge is heard considering the request for a translator for the mayor.
DePena has since been accused of not being able to speak English at all. The WGBH report from 2023 also noted that DePena does not speak English on a day-to-day basis.
RELATED: Noncitizen Kansas mayor accused of voter fraud has cast dozens of ballots since 2000, documents show
“I practice my English because it’s very important in America,” DePena said, according to WGBH. “For many years, another administration speaks perfect English and [didn’t provide] opportunity for better education, for businessmen, for kids, safety [in the] community.”
DePena later added, “It’s not easy, because every day [I] to need to make a decision about another person, the future of another person. … If you supported another candidate, no matter. Everyone is equal in my office.”
Since taking office in 2021, DePena has appeared in many videos speaking only in Spanish, including in official city materials.
RELATED: Postal worker allegedly tried to help detainee escape from ICE — and she was on duty at the time
In March 2023, an official city of Lawrence YouTube video showed DePena speaking only in Spanish for an “important message” about public schools. The video is labeled as bilingual, but this appeared to refer to the English subtitles.
That October, DePena appeared in a Spanish-only interview for local health care company Vitra Health.
Additionally a Facebook video post from August 2025 from the mayor’s official account is also entirely in Spanish.
The accusations come in spite of the Trump administration issuing an executive order designating English as the official language of the United States on March 1, 2025.
Blaze News contacted the mayor’s office and the mayor directly about whether he is fluent in English but received no response.

Jason Whitlock blames NFL quarterback decline on DEI and ‘victimhood culture’
The overall performance of quarterbacks in the NFL has plummeted, and BlazeTV host Jason Whitlock believes it has more to do with DEI and black culture than anyone in the NFL would ever be willing to admit.
“All of this emphasis on diversity and black quarterbacks and all of these changes that I feel like they’ve made to make quarterback play easier so that they can meet the quotas that they need to serve their diversity goals,” Whitlock tells BlazeTV contributor Coach JB on “Fearless.”
“This gets me called an Uncle Tom and a coon, but these guys started out the year talking about 16 quarterbacks, starting quarterbacks, are going to be black guys in the NFL in this year, and look at how much progress we’ve made, and black quarterbacks have taken over the league,” he explains.
This is where Whitlock turns to the stats.
“Here we are 14 games into the season. Look at this list. Look at the top teams, and look at the quarterbacks that are quarterbacking those teams. Bo Nix, Sam Darnold, Matt Stafford, Drake Maye, Josh Allen, Trevor Lawrence, Brock Purdy, Mac Jones … Justin Herbert, and Caleb Williams,” Whitlock says.
“Black starting quarterbacks have won 41% of their games this year in the NFL. And my argument — it’s not that they’re black; it’s not their skin color. It’s the culture and the mindset of victimhood and challenging of authority. And as a coach, you should be able to speak to this,” he tells Coach JB.
Coach JB believes it’s because coaches now accept “all this money and are worried about wins only and not the kid and the kid’s future.”
“I coached 19 of 21 years only having a black quarterback. Three to the NFL, 21 Division I quarterbacks — 19 of those were black. So, at the end of the day, none of them got arrested. All of them are successful. Got their degrees. Thirteen of them are coaching Division I football currently,” he tells Whitlock.
“I want to see the current Division I coaches right now who get $3 to $10 million a year who have literally failed the five-star black athlete quarterback,” he adds.

‘Nazi trash’: Unhinged outrage ensues after ICE posts video of Santa Claus deporting illegal aliens
Critics of the president’s immigration policy went into meltdown mode over a new video from the administration depicting Santa Claus as an ICE agent.
In the video that appears to be generated by artificial intelligence, Santa dons a reddish uniform of Immigration and Customs Enforcement while arresting illegal aliens and sending them on their way on a deportation flight.
‘This is freaking evil. Don’t make Santa the person who removes people from their place of safety.’
“AVOID ICE AIR AND SANTA’S NAUGHTY LIST!” read the message from ICE on the post. “Self-deport today with the CBP Home app, earn $3,000 and spend Christmas at home with loved ones. Holiday incentive is valid through the end of 2025.”
The holiday incentive triples the $1,000 offered previously to illegal aliens who choose to self-deport.
Many online raged against the video and Sec. Kristi Noem of the Department of Homeland Security.
“Nazi trash. Deport yourselves to hell,” replied voice actor Andy Cortez.
“Kristi Noem’s Department of Homeland Security posts deranged video turning Santa into an ICE agent. Making people suffer is just all fun and games for the Trump administration,” responded Mike Sington, a former NBCUniversal executive.
“This is freaking evil. Don’t make Santa the person who removes people from their place of safety. Ever. WTF?” said one critic.
“First off, Santa isn’t even a citizen so why the f**k would he be working with ICE and not give you f**ks coal for eternity? Secondly, you people are f**king ghouls,” replied another detractor.
“As I’ve said many times … Republicans would have nailed Jesus to the cross themselves and handed Trump the spear to stab him with,” responded podcaster Ryan Shead.
“I bet this goes so hard if you are a legitimate sociopath with literally no ability to feel empathy for another human being,” said another critic.
According to an analysis of ICE data by the Guardian, the administration has arrested more than 328,000 and deported nearly 327,000 since the beginning of the new administration. Nearly two million others have voluntarily self-deported, according to a DHS press release.

‘My new Fed Chairman’: Trump hints at major changes coming to Federal Reserve amid great economic report
On the strength of a very positive economic report from the Bureau of Economic Analysis, President Trump announced on Truth Social his future plans for the economy — and these plans may not include the current chairman of the Federal Reserve.
On Tuesday morning, Trump introduced and explained “the Trump Rule” when it comes to the economy.
‘Anybody that disagrees with me will never be the Fed Chairman!’
Trump started his post by explaining how markets have changed in response to good financial news, like the news received Tuesday. Rather than rallying as they have in the past, markets go down, he explained, in anticipation of interest rates increasing to offset “potential” inflation.
Trump continued, “That means that, essentially, we can never have a Great Market again, those Markets from the time when our Nation was building up, and becoming great. Strong Markets, even phenomenal Markets, don’t cause Inflation, stupidity does!”

Trump then hinted at a possible development coming to the Fed leadership: “I want my new Fed Chairman to lower Interest Rates if the Market is doing well, not destroy the Market for no reason whatsoever.”
Trump stated that he will no longer tolerate obstructionists making economic greatness impossible: “A Nation can never be Economically GREAT if ‘eggheads’ are allowed to do everything within their power to destroy the upward slope.”
He added that America will “see numbers that are far more natural, and far better, than they have ever been before.”
“Anybody that disagrees with me will never be the Fed Chairman!” Trump concluded.
The delayed economic report states that “Real gross domestic product (GDP) increased at an annual rate of 4.3 percent in the third quarter of 2025 (July, August, and September), according to the initial estimate released by the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis. In the second quarter, real GDP increased 3.8 percent.”

Putting America first this holiday: Trump DHS ends random work visa lottery
The Trump administration’s Department of Homeland Security is changing regulations governing work visas, arguing the changes will protect American workers.
On Tuesday, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services announced that the DHS had implemented a new rule to change the H-1B recipient selection process, ending the current random lottery system in favor of prioritizing those with higher skills.
‘As part of the Trump administration’s commitment to H-1B reform, we will continue to demand more from both employers and aliens so as not to undercut American workers and to put America first.’
The agency contended that the new policy would “better protect the wages, working conditions, and job opportunities for American workers.”
USCIS noted that the current random selection process has been criticized for “allowing unscrupulous employers to exploit it by flooding the selection pool with lower-skilled foreign workers paid at low wages, to the detriment of the American workforce.”
The not-yet-published final rule states that the new weighted selection process will favor higher-skilled, higher-paid foreign nationals while continuing to allow employers to obtain H-1Bs across all wage levels.
The rule will take effect on February 27 and apply to the H-1B registration season for fiscal year 2027.

“The existing random selection process of H-1B registrations was exploited and abused by U.S. employers who were primarily seeking to import foreign workers at lower wages than they would pay American workers,” USCIS spokesperson Matthew Tragesser stated.
“The new weighted selection will better serve Congress’ intent for the H-1B program and strengthen America’s competitiveness by incentivizing American employers to petition for higher-paid, higher-skilled foreign workers. With these regulatory changes and others in the future, we will continue to update the H-1B program to help American businesses without allowing the abuse that was harming American workers.”
In September, President Donald Trump issued a proclamation requiring employers to pay an additional $100,000 per H-1B visa.
“As part of the Trump administration’s commitment to H-1B reform, we will continue to demand more from both employers and aliens so as not to undercut American workers and to put America first,” Tragesser added.

Up to 65,000 new H-1B visas can be issued each year, with an additional 20,000 for individuals with a master’s degree or higher. Recipients are generally admitted for up to three years, with the option to extend for up to another three years. Some recipients may be eligible for more than six years. Certain organizations, such as some universities and nonprofits, are exempt from the annual cap.
FWD.us estimated that there are as many as 730,000 H-1B holders in the U.S., along with 550,000 of their dependents, including spouses and children. The estimated total number of H-1B holders and their dependents exceeds the population of eight states, including Montana and Rhode Island.
