Millions of people around the world were holding their breath last night. I’ve talked to Europeans to try to get a bead on what’s happening over there. There are Europeans like you and me who are frustrated with their own globalist, tyrannical bureaucracies telling them how to live and what to believe. If Donald Trump didn’t win, where in the world would they look to for hope that this madness would stop? Which leader could they count on to stand in the gap against their globalist elites? They, too, had a lot on the line in our election last night.

But today brings hope, not only in America but for freedom-loving people worldwide.

We need to restore the balance of power in the federal government — the way America’s founders intended.

We know Trump is going to stop the madness at the southern border. He is going to deport serial criminals and sex offenders who entered our country under Biden and Harris’ watch. The media will try to convince you that deportations are something akin to Hitler, but they turn a blind eye to their Democratic predecessors who have deported even more illegal immigrants than Trump. In fact, Bill Clinton deported more illegal immigrants than any president in U.S. history, shipping 11 million out of the country in the 1990s. In contrast, Trump deported less than a million during his first term, which is even less than the 1.8 million under the Obama administration.

Deportations of criminals who are in our country illegally is critical to protecting the safety of the American people, a practice that has been exercised by presidents for decades.

Our friends across the pond have been witnessing the destruction of their societies since EU globalists opened Europe’s floodgates to immigrants in 2015. Crime is rampant, communities governed by Sharia law are multiplying, and their social programs are being pushed to a breaking point. Tuesday night gave them reason to hope. America is going to say, “No more,” and perhaps this will be the rallying cry for our European brothers-in-arms to stand up as well.

The election was also a major blow to draconian globalist organizations. The United States will no longer be beholden to the Paris Climate Accords. Our nation will no longer give credence to the World Economic Forum. We won’t give the World Health Organization a single penny more. All these very well-planned globalist initiatives are going away.

But Trump can’t act alone. Thank God we won the Senate. This is an incredible step forward, but for these big plans to come to fruition, we need the House. If the Republicans — actual freedom-loving, Constitution-abiding Republicans — don’t have the House, you’re not going to be able to get things done except by executive order, which we don’t want to do. One reason things were so bad during the last four years is that Joe Biden simply signed executive orders to reverse everything that Trump accomplished, completely bypassing Congress. We have to do it the right way. We need to restore the balance of power in the federal government — the way America’s founders intended.

One of the most hopeful things Trump said Tuesday night is that we’re going to enter a new golden era in America. I believe him. He could have said that in 2020, and I wouldn’t have believed him as much as I believe him now. That’s because Trump now has a team of people that’s not exclusively comprised of politicians.

Bringing in somebody like Elon Musk is one of the most hopeful things for our country I’ve witnessed in my lifetime. I know that guy can cut spending. I know he will find the waste in our government because he’s not a government guy — he’s a businessman. He’s going to slash all the redundancies that have been justified by career bureaucrats for decades. We have a chance of cutting our budget and creating a reasonable one.

Trump’s promise to cut regulations also spells hope for our country. He cut more regulation in his first term than any other president, but Biden and Harris have since added a mountain of rules. He will have his work cut out for him, but he will get it done. He must if this economy will roar again.

We could have a true rebirth of freedom and the American dream, and I find that really hopeful. So many Americans are tired of worrying about their kids struggling and seeing Bidenomics and regulation yank from their children’s hands the possibility of the American dream that they attained. Donald Trump is the biggest chance of bringing it back.

Today, I’m filled with hope. Real, tangible hope. And you should be, too.

Democrats and other pro-Harris supporters began floating a scheme intended to temporarily insert Vice President Kamala Harris into the Oval Office just to make history and ruin Trump merchandise sales.

‘Generation participation-trophy has reached adulthood & still wants a prize.’

NewsNation contributor Kurt Bardella argued that President Joe Biden should resign and allow Harris to take over presidential duties until Trump’s second inauguration in January.

“I think if you’re President Joe Biden, there’s nothing left to run for. There’s nothing left to really do. Pardon your son, then resign and elevate Kamala Harris to the presidency and make one more mark in the history books while you can,” said Bardella to a NewsNation panel.

“If I were Joe Biden, that’s exactly what I would do,” he added. “Again, you have a very short runway left of being relevant and being able to make your mark in a historic way. Why not do it that way?”

“You know, it’s not the craziest thing I’ve ever heard,” responded Mick Mulvaney, the former acting White House chief of staff under Trump.

Others on social media were also pushing the idea that Harris should be allowed to be called the 47th president of the U.S. even if it were only to be on an temporary basis.

“Biden should resign so Harris becomes 47 and Donald has to throw out all his 47 swag,” read one viral tweet that garnered over 4.1 million views.

“President Biden should resign as an act of protest tomorrow so Kamala Harris could be sworn in as the first female president until January. That would make Trump 48 and ruin that stupid hat of his. Can we get this trending,” wrote an activist account.

“Since we’re never ever going to see a brown person or a woman nominated for President ever again, Biden should resign tomorrow and give Kamala Harris and us a bit of history for the next two months,” read another comment.

Still others mocked what would amount to be a presidential participation trophy.

“‘Let the child win.’ For her self-esteem. The ultimate in insulting DEI infantilization of a world leader,” responded Christopher Bedford, Blaze Media Washington correspondent.

“Generation participation-trophy has reached adulthood & still wants a prize,” he added.

That rumble, thud, and explosion heard in the wee hours of Nov. 6 was the sound of the largest investigation in FBI history crashing into the dustbin of history.

When Decision Desk projected that the commonwealth of Pennsylvania gave Donald J. Trump the 270 Electoral College votes he needed for victory, the Jan. 6 ship of state fell to earth like the Luftschiff Zeppelin Hindenburg in Lakehurst, New Jersey, on May 6, 1937.

Boom.

Perhaps at no time in the modern era has a presidential vote been watched so keenly as January 6ers watched the evening of Nov. 5. Their cries of redemption broke the early-morning calm on Nov. 6 across all 50 states.

The January 6 machine is dead. Long live the January 6 machine.

From the dingy cells of the District of Columbia jail, the unwavering tones of the national anthem rang out more assuredly than on hundreds of other nights over the past nearly four years.

Oh say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave o‘er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

Somewhere out in the ether, the echoes of President Gerald R. Ford hung in the air:

My fellow Americans, our long national nightmare is over. Our Constitution works; our great Republic is a government of laws and not of men. Here the people rule. But there is a higher Power, by whatever name we honor Him, who ordains not only righteousness but love, not only justice but mercy.

As the electoral map began to take shape the evening of Nov. 5, the accused and long aggrieved of Jan. 6 felt a growing sense of hope — something they never received from two years of GOP control in the U.S. House of Representatives.

That hope was brought home by the maligned, impeached, attacked, mocked, and despised man whom the American left shot in the ear because they simply could not beat him with ideas — or honest ballots.

Deux ex machina, thy name is Trump.

How bitter the sight must have been for the D.C. elites and oligarch class to behold: the despised orange man at the dais declaring Nov. 5 as “the day Americans regained control of their country.”

Donald J. Trump’s seemingly impossible ascent from the ashes of Jan. 6 will loom over American history in a way no other event or political movement ever has.

The January 6 machine is dead. Long live the January 6 machine.

While the FBI and the inaptly named U.S. Department of Justice might continue pushing the creaking wheels of “shock and awe” to ensnare a few dozen more January 6ers, the tires will be flat soon enough.

In a way, Trump owed this victory to his followers and supporters who were ground up in the shredder of selective prosecution for protesting election fraud — and getting caught up in rioting that was meant to mortally wound the career of the 45th president of the United States.

January 6 still cries out for investigation and action on a range of issues — an effort that should begin even before Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. and Kamala Devi Harris depart the White House on Jan. 20, 2025.

Pardon me, Mr. President

Many if not most of those whose lives were ruined by Jan. 6 have hoped a Trump victory would bring pardons or commutations to put an end to the political warfare waged from the left on Middle America.

Trump has frequently talked about issuing pardons for Jan. 6 defendants, but the devil in that project will be in the details. A blanket pardon or pardons restricted to nonviolent cases? What would accomplish justice and begin healing? Some of those discussions have already taken place.

A real January 6 investigation

The work product of the so-called Jan. 6 investigations has been heavy on narrative and light on truth. Congress should not shirk or duck this important duty. The full weight of Congress, amply funded, is needed to cut through the propaganda and unearth the truth. The Department of Defense played a bigger role than has been disclosed publicly. Investigators need to document which troops were at the Capitol that day and what their mission was.

How much did the myriad Jan. 6 investigations and 1,500-plus prosecutions cost the American taxpayer?

Should the Justice Department be downsized? Should investigators instead look at the roles played by Attorney General Merrick Garland, Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco, and other Justice Department brass in designing and arming the Jan. 6 prosecution machine?

Fedsurrection, fedsurrection

There is too much smoke surrounding this issue for there not to be fire. What was the federal law enforcement presence at the Capitol on Jan. 6, and what did agents and informants do? Was there incitement or entrapment? And if there were large numbers of feds present, why did they not help quell the rioting that broke out?

Reforms need to be examined to correct how confidential human sources are used and managed in FBI investigations. A pattern suggesting routine entrapment demands some kind of check on the power of the informant.

New criminal probes

Special prosecutors should be employed or grand juries impaneled to investigate the killing of Ashli Babbitt and the senseless, horrific beating and death of Rosanne Boyland. The D.C. bubble has hidden many facts and ignored many others that contributed to these two Jan. 6 tragedies.

Torture behind bars

Congress failed to investigate and expose the banana republic torture and abuse visited upon many dozens of men and women in D.C. pretrial detention and at Bureau of Prisons facilities. These victims’ stories should be documented and shown to the American people in televised prime-time hearings.

Capitol Police transparency

Congress needs to rein in the U.S. Capitol Police, making the department more directly accountable to the American people. The agency does not believe its records should be available to the public. The Capitol Police often ignore or deny requests from media. Judicial Watch Inc. has engaged in years of litigation to obtain records.

Congress should closely examine the Capitol Police Jan. 6 timeline and what took place since that day. How many officers faced retaliation for reporting issues and problems to the USCP inspector general? Was there a shadow administration undercutting former Police Chief Steven A. Sund in the weeks leading to Jan. 6?

During the brief tenure of acting Chief Yogananda Pittman, officers were forced to sign nondisclosure agreements after Jan. 6. Some were unjustly forced out. Pittman was given a sweetheart retirement deal after she took a new job at the University of California-Berkeley.

Federal criminal code

Congress should examine how the federal criminal code was used and weaponized to take down Jan. 6 defendants. From the dubious “obstruction of Congress” felony to the minefield that is the Federal Sentencing Guidelines, Congress should consider adjustments that make it harder to persecute instead of prosecute.

Rage-mob damage

How did the mere allegation or even a hint of an allegation create conditions that destroyed families without any due process? Why was Air Force veteran Babbitt denied military honors by the Pentagon when she was not accused, much less convicted, of Jan. 6 criminal violations? Why were other veterans denied disability or other benefit payments based on charges alone? Why did couples lose their mortgage loans because one was charged with a Jan. 6 offense?

FBI procedures and power

Aside from thinning the herd of G-men at J. Edgar Hoover’s stomping grounds, the bureau might benefit from a serious review of proper and improper use of tactical power to apprehend nonviolent misdemeanor defendants. Congress or a Jan. 6 task force should examine what some defense attorneys argue is an unconstitutional projection of FBI power via SWAT raids that might usurp the sovereignty of the states.

The Brady Bunch

In hundreds of Jan. 6 criminal cases, exculpatory evidence was withheld from defendants, numerous defense attorneys have asserted. In some other cases, federal judges looked the other way while defense attorneys held up long lists of evidence they were denied. The House Committee on the Judiciary might consider a review of this topic to see why the strictures of the Supreme Court case Brady v. Maryland did not prevent abuses.

A judicial review

Not a single Jan. 6 defendant was granted a change of venue, despite ample evidence that the District of Columbia voting pool is nearly 95% Democrat and deeply biased against those who were at the Capitol on Jan. 6. No Jan. 6 defendant was found not guilty by a D.C. jury.

Did District judges properly administer the law? Should defendants accused in D.C. have the option to be tried by a jury of their peers in their home federal court districts?

A study could be made of the deep judicial bias that poisoned many Jan. 6 cases, such as judges who found it impossible to check their tongues or even be mindful that their public statements could taint the jury pool.

While some social media influencers might call for retribution under the new Trump administration, it’s more likely that January 6ers are simply looking for something to which they are already entitled: justice.

​Politics, 2024 presidential election 

Democratic President Joe Biden is reportedly trying to rush another $6 billion of security assistance to Ukraine as a last-minute order before former President Donald Trump assumes the presidency again.

‘Strong and unwavering U.S. leadership is vital for the world and for a just peace.’

Politico reported the plan based on two administration sources who said the length of time it takes to roll out munitions and equipment would mean Trump could halt the shipment before it got to Ukraine.

The U.S. has been one of the major backers of Ukraine since Russian Federation President Vladimir Putin ordered a military invasion in Feb. 2022. The issue became divisive in the presidential campaign as many Republicans opposed military aid to a foreign country and demanded the money be spent on U.S. citizens instead.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on social media that he had spoken to Trump Wednesday, the day after Election Day.

“We agreed to maintain close dialogue and advance our cooperation,” said Zelenskyy. “Strong and unwavering U.S. leadership is vital for the world and for a just peace.”

He also issued a congratulatory message after Trump won the election.

“I appreciate President Trump’s commitment to the ‘peace through strength’ approach in global affairs,” Zelenskyy wrote. “This is exactly the principle that can practically bring just peace in Ukraine closer. I am hopeful that we will put it into action together.”

Trump has blamed the invasion on Biden and claimed that it would have never happened had he been president at the time. He also claimed that he would be able to end the war and stop the tragic casualties easily once he got back into the Oval Office.

“I believe if we win, we’re gonna have a very fair and actually rather rapid deal,” said Trump in September.

“We’ll get it solved,” he added. “It’s a very complicated puzzle, very complicated puzzle, but we’ll get it solved, and people [will] get on with their lives. Too many people dead.”

Entertainer Bette Midler deleted her social media account after joking that she would drink drain cleaner if former President Donald Trump won the election.

‘A clear view into a a clearly troubled mindset.’

The celebrated singer had been a vehement and vocal critic of Trump and his supporters. In one bizarre episode from September, Midler tweeted a conspiracy theory implying that the former president was not actually shot during the first assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. She also accused Trump of calling on his followers to kill Taylor Swift based on a criticism he made against the singer endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris for president.

After posting on social media that she was following the election, Midler made a reference to Trump winning and then deleted her account. The meme she posted showed a champagne bottle with a note that read, “Kamala wins,” and a bottle of Draino with note saying, “Trump wins.”

The celebrity was mocked and ridiculed for leaving X by Trump supporters.

“Bette Midler regularly spewed filth and lies with impunity. Yet she was a reliable barometer of leftist sentiment — a clear view into a a clearly troubled mindset. I will miss you Bette,” replied journalist David Ng.

“Just when I thought today couldn’t get any better, Bette Midler deleted her account. How positively delicious. Nom, nom, nom,” read another response.

Others visited her Instagram account, which was not deactivated, to leave messages jokingly in support of her drinking drain cleaner.

“Bottoms up, Bette. Don’t forget to shake the bottle first,” read one comment.

“You gonna live stream drinking the draino before you leave the country?” read another comment.

“Gosh hope you are ok after drinking that Draino! #TrumpVance2024,” said another commentor.

Trump has been projected to win the electoral college, and his vote count is approaching a victory in the popular vote. He made astounding gains in nearly every state, and Republicans are also projected to flip the U.S. Senate from Democratic control.

As much as it makes me feel old to say it, I have been watching Joe Biden’s career in politics for over 30 years.

Once, in an incident that is, unbelievably, almost 20 years old, I had a front-row seat to the Joe Biden show. The year was 2007, and I was working for former Kansas Senator (and later Governor) Sam Brownback during his abortive run for the 2008 Republican nomination. I was in the Des Moines airport waiting to catch a delayed flight back home to Tennessee in what I assume was the only bar in the place.

The media channeled their inner Chico Marx and asked, ‘Who are you going to believe, us or your lying eyes?’

The boss had performed poorly in the Ames straw poll the previous day, and I was in a mood. As I was trying to drown my sorrows, I looked up and suddenly found myself staring into a face I recognized: Joe Biden, who was also running for president, was making the rounds with the four other people who were stuck in the bar that day, and he made it over to my table.

I felt a little sorry for Biden, in spite of the fact that his politics have always been loathsome to me, watching him make the rounds with clearly disinterested voters, most of whom did not even know who he was. So I apologized and told him that I was not even an Iowa resident and was actually only there to work on a Republican presidential campaign. Surely, I figured, Biden must have better things to do than talk to a very unpersuadable person who was not even an Iowa voter.

As it turned out, he did not. “Oh, really?” Biden exclaimed. “Which one?” When I told him I worked for Sen. Brownback, to my horror, he pulled up a chair and wanted to chat. At length.

“You know, I’m working with Sam Brownback on our partition plan for Iraq,” he began. Thus began a conversation that lasted for easily over an hour, which I did not want at the time. I will say this for the Biden I unwillingly met in 2007: He was a world-champion talker. His political and foreign policy instincts have always been bad, and he’s never been honest in even the slightest sense, but he was unquestionably possessed of the species of intelligence that allows most politicians to immediately come up with a plausible-sounding justification for almost literally anything they are saying.

When Biden re-emerged from de facto retirement in 2020 to run for president again, I was shocked at the desiccated version of Biden I saw on my television screen. This was not at all the same person who bent my ear 13 years earlier. The COVID-19 pandemic gave the Democrats the perfect excuse they needed to do exactly what had to be done with Biden in order to preserve any chance that he would win: They locked him (figuratively, I assume) in a basement and hid him from the public. At the time, Biden still had enough “good” days that this was a feasible approach with careful planning. I don’t begrudge Democrats the tactic, which, after all, was ultimately successful.

I do begrudge the media, many of whom had much more extensive personal interactions with Biden than I ever did and many of whom also should have been very clear about what was going on with Biden’s mental condition. And any person who has seen a family member who is going through age-related cognitive decline, which should be all of them, should have known that while those suffering from it will have periodic good days, the condition will inexorably get worse with time. And they said nothing.

As literally anyone could have predicted, Biden became visibly worse with each passing month of his first term. The White House staff took to hiding Biden away even more thoroughly, and the press said nothing. In what would become a meme in right-leaning circles, the White House reporters would dutifully report, day after day, that Biden had “called a lid” before noon. Never did they report that there should be any level of concern that the president of the United States had apparently adopted a two-hour work day, and certainly they did not do any of the hard-nosed, investigative reporting that the moment demanded.

In fact, as his condition worsened, their coverage of it was, without exaggeration, the worst example of media malpractice in history. On the few occasions that Biden appeared in public in 2024, he displayed alarming and unavoidable signs of very advanced cognitive decline, including freezing up, losing his place and staring silently for awkward lengths of time, and having to be physically led with shuffling steps to where he was supposed to be.

It’s not that the media forgot what these signs meant. Republican Senator Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) was starting to display them, too, and the media dutifully reported them as fact. But when it came to Biden, the reaction was quite different: They lied. There is no other way to put it. They did not shade the truth; they did not spin it; they just flat-out put their heads in the sand and published things they had to know were not true.

By June, just a few short weeks before Biden would embarrass them all, it was happening virtually every time Biden ventured into public. At a star-studded fundraiser in Los Angeles with former President Barack Obama, Biden froze up on stage for 10 full seconds before being physically led off by Obama. A couple of days later, he repeated this at the G7 summit in Italy, this time being rescued by Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni. The media, led by so-called “fact-checkers,” who are the only people in America with less credibility than reporters these days, channeled their inner Chico Marx and asked, “Who are you going to believe, us or your lying eyes?”

Literally dozens of “fact-checks” followed, seeking to reassure people that the responsible guardians of truth in the media had investigated these videos and found that the problem here was deceptive editing. Not one of these organizations has recovered enough shame to remove them from where they still sit on the internet, including the Associated Press, Reuters, the hilariously named PolitiFact, Snopes, NBC, and dozens of others.

Rather than asking questions of the White House about Biden’s mental fitness, as any responsible journalist would have done, the White House press corps was, if anything, more embarrassing in its active lack of interest in the truth. Ten days before Biden’s fateful debate, a “reporter” actually asked Karine Jean-Pierre the following: “There seems to be a sort of a rash of videos that have been edited to make the president appear officially frail or mentally confused. I’m wondering if the White House is especially worried about the fact that this appears to be a pattern.” Here’s how she responded:

The formerly prestigious Poynter Institute, which fancies itself the arbiter of good reporting, deserves special mention here. In an article dated June 24, just three days before Biden mentally disrobed himself on national television, Poynter published an article subtitled, “‘Cheap fake’ videos of Biden that have been selectively edited or taken out of context have flooded social media and are the subject of political spin.” This article, which has not been corrected or removed, claimed with a straight face that “cheap fakes” have “become a common tactic to undermine Biden’s fitness for office as the 81-year-old seeks reelection.”

Three days later, Biden went on television and did this:

After the debate disaster, the media turned on Biden with a fury. They effectively drove him out of the race. But make no mistake: If Biden had simply refused to debate Trump and gone back to his basement for the remainder of 2024, the “fact-checkers” of the world would still this day be telling you that suggestions of Biden’s cognitive decline are right-wing disinformation. And that’s a problem for the media, but it’s also a problem for Democrats.

If you’re a Democrat and you’re reading this today, and you are searching for people to blame, put these so-called “fact checkers” high on your list. Not one of them can have been under the actual impression that Biden was really fine. Anyone with a working set of eyes who had ever seen Biden on television prior to 2020 — which should be all of them — could see what was happening to him. If they had told the truth back in 2021 or 2022, when it was already very evident, the Democrats could have had a chance at a 2024 campaign that might have gone very differently. Either Biden could have resigned (as he should have done) and Harris could have had a chance to actually act as president and develop her own record, or the Democrats could have had an actual nominating contest for a shot at a different candidate.

This second course of action might well have saved the day for the Democrats. Harris, it must be said, was a bad candidate. And I’m not telling Democrats something they don’t already know. That’s why, in 2019, despite having the backing of the entire Clinton machine and an enormous war chest, she dropped out ignominiously before a single vote was cast. In my view, Harris had little chance of winning no matter what, but even those who disagree with that would be forced to admit that her chances would have improved enormously if she had a chance to actually be the incumbent and implement her own policies to run on, rather than being tied to a wildly unpopular doddering president.

But in order for that to happen, the media had to tell the truth about what was happening. They had to have the bravery to put aside their own personal partisan convictions, which overwhelmingly skew left, and summon the bravery to tell their audiences things their audiences did not want to hear. And they were simply not capable of doing it.

I have no doubt that as Trump begins his second term, the media will miraculously rediscover their ability to perform aggressive, probing investigations into the mental health and fitness of an aging president. I also have no doubt that Democrats will cheer the media on in this endeavor. Fine. I don’t begrudge people rooting for their own team.

But they would do well to remember that when a Democrat returns to office, as one inevitably will, they need to demand better from their media in terms of telling the truth about Democrats, too. Otherwise, they may well find themselves blindsided again.

​Opinion & analysis 

The Kamala Harris campaign spent half a billion dollars just on its abortion messaging — but it wasn’t enough to sway the American people to vote for another four years of Bidenomics.

“Enough people woke up, enough people saw that and stood up and were willing to be called Nazis and everything else, and they just didn’t care. And I think that was a miracle, and God was gracious yesterday,” Glenn Beck of “The Glenn Beck Program” says.

Although the votes are still being counted, even CNN has Trump at 276 electoral votes.

“It’s over,” Pat Gray says, happily.

“It’s historic because you get your butt kicked this badly, you destroy your credibility this much, and I can guarantee you, there won’t be any self-reflection at all,” Glenn adds.

“I disagree with that, actually, I think there will be a reflection from the media, and they will decide if they had only called him ‘Hitler’ one more time, they would have won,” Stu Burguiere jokes, adding, “If they would have said ‘fascist’ a few more times.”

And so far, the Democrats have shown they’re really not considering they could have done anything wrong.

One MSNBC contributor told the audience that “future historians are going to look back on this day and say, ‘This is the day that America made a choice between freedom and democracy on one side, and authoritarianism and dictatorship on the other.”

“We voted for freedom and democracy and the Republic, so congratulations America,” Glenn responds.

Democrats have continued to lose the conversation, with women coming out in even the sports world to reject messages from athletes like Angel Reese.

Despite saying in August that she wasn’t following the presidential campaigns, Reese put out a simple statement the morning after Donald Trump became the 47th president.

“As a woman, I’m heartbroken for us all…” Reese decried on her X account.

At the same time, Reese shared a picture of Vice President Kamala Harris on her Instagram, which had a caption “thank you, Kamala Harris, we are proud of you.”

However, female readers were not supportive of Reese’s emotional plea and flooded her replies with disagreements.

“Smart women know to vote beyond identity politics,” a woman named Angie quickly replied.

— (@)

Another reader replied, “what’s a woman,” implying that the Democratic position on gender politics is that a woman cannot be simply defined.

“Imagine believing all the lies about trump! Wow!” a Trump supporter with “America First” in her profile also stated.

Another X user even went as far as to say “keep your legs closed. Simple,” inferring that Reese was taking issue with abortion rights, which are not under President Trump’s control, however.

Reese revealing her political leanings, albeit somewhat covertly, is a change from her typical responses to questions about Harris in the months leading up to the election.

During previous media availability periods, Reese parried questions about supporting the Democratic candidate.

For example, when reporter Brandon Robinson caught up with Reese on the court, he directly asked the athlete for her thoughts on the vice president:

“[Kamala Harris] is a woman, and she’s doing her thing, running for president,” the reporter began. “Have you had a chance to watch her? What are your thoughts on her running for political office?”

At the time, Reese’s response was refreshingly-normal, telling the reporter she didn’t feel educated enough to comment on the race.

“I haven’t been able to tap a lot into the political election … so I’m not that educated right now, but [I] just continue to learn,” Reese replied.

Instead, the Chicago Sky player suggested, “everybody go out there and vote.”

“I commend that, and I just tell a lot of people to go out there and vote because we need it for this election,” Reese added.

The overwhelming volume of negative quotes and replies to Reese seem to signal that female voters prefer to focus on issues that are affecting their lives.

Responses relating to men in women’s locker rooms appear alongside disgruntled basketball fans and Christians in what has become a cross-section of Americans focused on political, economical, and social issues rather than gender or racial politics.

In a post-election interview on Wednesday, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. revealed some of his plans for a major overhaul of the country’s key health agencies.

An MSNBC reporter asked RFK Jr. whether he will terminate “the top level federal service workers that are currently at” the Food and Drug Administration and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

“In some categories,” Kennedy responded. “There are entire departments, like the nutrition departments at FDA, that have to go.”

He said workers in certain departments, including nutrition, are “not doing their job” or “protecting our kids.”

“Why do we have Froot Loops in this country that have 18 or 19 ingredients, and you go to Canada, and it’s got two or three?” Kennedy questioned.

When asked whether he plans to eradicate any of the agencies, Kennedy replied, “To eliminate the agencies, as long as it requires congressional approval, I wouldn’t be doing that.”

Kennedy explained that he is confident he could “get the corruption out of the agencies.”

“It’s what I’ve been doing for 40 years. I’ve sued all those agencies. I have a PhD in corporate corruption, and that’s what I do. And once they’re not corrupt, once Americans are getting good science and are allowed to make their own choices, they’re going to get a lot healthier,” he added.

Less than a week before Election Day, Kennedy told NewsNation Trump’s plans for him in his future cabinet.

“President Trump has asked me to reorganize the federal health agencies. The agencies that have a portfolio that affects human health, which is CDC, [National Institutes of Health], FDA, as well as some of the agencies within the United States Department of Agriculture,” Kennedy said.

Kennedy said he was asked by Trump to end corruption and conflicts of interest as well as “measurably reduce chronic disease in our children within two years.”

On Sunday, he remarked, “I want to be in the White House. And [Trump has] assured me that I’m going to have that.”

Kennedy stated that he had not yet decided whether he wants to head the United States Department of Health and Human Services.

“I want to be in the position where I’m most effective to end the chronic disease epidemic,” Kennedy continued. “And I’m confident that if I wanted to do HHS secretary, the president would fight like hell to make that happen.”

Last week, Vice President Kamala Harris slammed Kennedy as “someone who has routinely promoted junk science and crazy conspiracy theories.”

She called him the “exact last person in America who should be setting health care policy for America’s families and children.”

“Nobody deserves this more than him, and nobody deserves this more than his family does,” White stated.

“This is what happens when the machine comes after you! … Couldn’t stop him; he keeps going forward; he doesn’t quit. He’s the most resilient, hardworking man I’ve ever met in my life. His family are incredible people.”

“This is karma, ladies and gentlemen! He deserves this!” White roared, as the crowd cheered.

“No matter what they threw at the guy, he just kept going,” says Dave, echoing White’s words.

“They’re trying to arrest him; they’re taking away his business licenses; they’re trying to get him off the ballot; they’re shooting him. … He just kept going,” he praises. “He damn well deserves this.”
