President Donald Trump announced that Toyota will invest billions to open auto plants across the country. “I was just told by the [Japanese] prime minister that Toyota is going to be putting auto plants all over the United States to the tune of $10 billion,” Trump said. “Go out and buy a Toyota.” Trump spoke to sailors aboard the USS George Washington Tuesday in Tokyo Bay after meeting with Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi. Trump said he thinks Takaichi, Japan‘s first female prime minister, will “go down as one of the great prime ministers.” “I want to just let you know, anytime you have any question, any doubt, anything you want, any favors you need, anything I can do to help Japan, we will be there,” Trump told Takaichi. Takaichi will nominate Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters.

As we observe National First Responders Day, let us honor those who protect us every day—and give extra support to those with the courage to reestablish law and order while confronting defiance, violent discord, and even domestic terrorism. A coordinated, dark money-funded far-left movement is targeting and attacking one law enforcement agency in particular: U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. In doing so, they’re jeopardizing the lives of ICE officers. Federal prosecutors have charged violent rioters for attacking law enforcement in urban areas across the nation. Since June, the U.S. Attorney’s Office has filed cases against 33 extremists who allegedly assaulted ICE agents and other officers at Portland’s federal immigration facility. In Chicago, five defendants were recently indicted for assaulting or resisting federal agents, including one suspect who violently dragged an ICE officer with a vehicle, sending the agent to the hospital. Authorities in Los Angeles arrested over 575 rioters after demonstrations sent the city into fiery chaos and injured at least 10 officers over the summer. A Texas court indicted the first two of 18 defendants in custody for suspected connection to a shooting at an ICE facility on terrorism charges. Amid the social and economic decay of cities like Portland, Chicago, and Los Angeles, leftist politicians created sanctuaries for aliens violating our laws. Instead of following their oath to protect their citizens, these politicians have instead protected criminals and terrorists. Now, liberal politicians not only openly defy the federal government, but they also encourage anarchy against constitutional ICE operations and even incite attacks against federal law enforcement agents. Financial records and public endorsements show that despite leftists’ claims, anti-ICE riots are heavily coordinated campaigns of anarchy and not organic acts of protest. For example, the International Anti-Fascist Defense provided bail to a group connected to the ICE facility attack in Texas on July 4th. The Trump administration stated that many of these violent attacks against ICE are connected to groups identifying themselves as Antifa, coordinated online and backed by a dark money network that funnels funds through nonprofit tax-exempt status under the guise of “community defense” or “mutual aid.” Antifa is well affiliated with national activist coalitions, Marxist organizations, and legal defense funds that also appear connected to the anti-Trump administration “No Kings” protest movement. That’s the same network that supports liberal politicians across the country. Two organizations listed as No Kings partners, Planned Parenthood Action Fund and League of Conservation Voters, endorsed Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass. In Chicago, Mayor Brandon Johnson won with the support of Our Revolution and Indivisible Chicago, two groups that also participated in the No Kings mobilizations. One of the most striking examples of politicians placating anarchy is in Portland. The city approved a near $500,000 settlement to Dustin Brandon Ferreira, a reported Antifa associate, and another several hundred thousand dollar settlement to Meghan Lea Opbroek, who was left injured in an Antifa arson attempt against a local police precinct. Through these settlements, Portland has effectively made taxpayers sponsor left-wing terrorism to avoid trials. These associations are just some of many that reveal how anti-federal law enforcement agendas are embedded within the political mainstream of America’s largest sanctuary cities. The rhetoric attacking law enforcement is alarming, but the risk increases as you follow the money that sponsors this behavior. A study of political extremism in America concluded that 2025 is on track to be the most violent year of leftwing extremism in over thirty years. The pandemic years coaxed leftist positions and flagged normal behavior as dangerous. Since March 2020, liberals’ go-to political weapon has been doxxing, causing personally identifiable information to be widespread against people whose only “offense” was exercising their rights or carrying out constitutional orders. Many of the Left’s doxxing victims are federal agents—and the sharing of their personal information obstructs their ability to do their jobs. Authorities arrested John Curcio who purportedly leaked a female ICE attorney’s home address to social media and encouraged people to harass her. A grand jury indicted three women in September for following an ICE agent to his door and live streaming his address to the public. When states and municipalities declare sanctuary policies or refuse to cooperate with ICE, they’re complicit in anarchy and endangerment of law enforcement officers. On this day, we honor all first responders who now face growing threats of political violence. While liberals berate brave officers for enforcing laws most Americans support, let us continue to give our visible and vocal support to those defending Americans every day.

What a Stupid Question

'What the F*** Did You Just Do?': Obama Ripped Pelosi Over Kamala Endorsement

"Now we are living through a moment of legislated genocide."

Scientists have developed the first-ever ultrasound probe that can capture whole organs in 4D.

Late night comedy’s all-out effort to drag Zohran Mamdani across the finish line in New York City’s upcoming mayoral election continued on Monday on Comedy Central with its most direct bit of campaigning. The Daily Show’s Jon Stewart welcomed Mamdani to tell him how much “I love hearing” about his campaign and to claim that he has been surprised establishment Democrats have not fallen in line behind him. Stewart insisted that he is not “blowing smoke,” but he clearly was, “And what I love hearing about this is, one of the things that has been so frustrating in our politics is so much of it has been defined over these last ten years as the negative case against someone, and finally—and I think this is not blowing smoke -- I think you've made an affirmative case for people. I think the enthusiasm that they have for you is because you have made an affirmative case that's not about protecting something that is going to be lost or a bad man that’s over there.”     As for Mamdani’s intra-party critics, Stewart added, “It is about an idea that you have, and it surprised me that the Democratic establishment did not embrace that energy. And is that something that has bothered you? Is getting better? I mean, Hakeem Jeffries, with a brave, brave endorsement, I thought, 24 hours ago—what has that been like for you?” Mamdani’s “affirmative case” is basically being the middle schooler who runs for student government promising no homework and free ice cream all day, every day. There’s also the Hamas propagandizing that, somehow, Stewart never managed to bring up in a 30-minute interview. As for Mamdani’s response, he took the free opportunity to pat himself on the back, “You know, I think it is interesting in many ways, because our politics and the media that covers it is often focused on the question of endorsements. And it is part of what gave Cuomo the sense of inevitability in the primary. He just seemed to pick up all of these different endorsements. And I think what we showed in many ways was that the days of endorsements deciding elections, those days have come to the end. It is the people who built up a campaign. And, you know, I appreciate having Congressman Jeffries, his endorsement, and I appreciate more than that when we have spoken, it's been about, how do we deliver for our shared constituents?” Turning to Trump, he continued, “Because it’s, you know—these are the same New Yorkers, whether we are representing them in city hall or Albany or D.C., and like you said, we have been telling them time and again that all we have to offer is not Trump. But this is also the city that created Trump. We have to reckon with that. And when you think about—” Stewart then interrupted, “Did you hear, there was an audible gasp? ‘This is the city that created Trump’ and everyone was like, ‘Oh, my god, that's right!’ Are we Dr. Frankenstein? Nooooo! Nooooo!’" Yes, but instead of Trump, New York and the late night comedy shows should be more worried about giving the rest of us Mamdani. Here is a transcript for the October 27 show: Comedy Central The Daily Show 10/27/2025 11:30 PM ET JON SETWART: And what I love hearing about this is, one of the things that has been so frustrating in our politics is so much of it has been defined over these last ten years as the negative case against someone, and finally — and I think this is not blowing smoke — I think you've made an affirmative case for people. I think the enthusiasm that they have for you is because you have made an affirmative case that's not about protecting something that is going to be lost or a bad man that’s over there. It is about an idea that you have, and it surprised me that the Democratic establishment did not embrace that energy. And is that something that has bothered you? Is getting better? I mean, Hakeem Jeffries, with a brave, brave endorsement, I thought, 24 hours ago — what has that been like for you? ZOHRAN MAMDANI: You know, I think it is interesting in many ways, because our politics and the media that covers it is often focused on the question of endorsements.  STEWART: Right. MAMDANI: And it is part of what gave Cuomo the sense of inevitability in the primary. He just seemed to pick up all of these different endorsements. And I think what we showed in many ways was that the days of endorsements deciding elections, those days have come to the end. It is the people who built up a campaign. And, you know, I appreciate having Congressman Jeffries, his endorsement, and I appreciate more than that when we have spoken, it's been about, how do we deliver for our shared constituents?  STEWART: Right.

No! No!"

In 1934, Congress gave famed Democrat President Franklin Roosevelt the authority to adjust tariff rates without its approval so that presidents could deal with times just like those President Donald Trump faces today, Constitutional Scholar Mark Levin explained Sunday. “Look, you don’t have to love tariffs. You might not even like tariffs,” but they’ve been used by Democrat and Republicans alike since the country’s founding, Host Levin noted Sunday in the latest episode of “Life, Liberty and Levin,” presenting a list of all the presidents who have wielded tariffs: “Tariffs were used by presidents of every party in every period of American history to try and give a breather to allow our industries to develop, because other countries, in many respects, were taking advantage of our country, as Donald Trump talks about all the time.” “The president, under Article 2 [of the U.S. Constitution], is in charge of foreign policy – that includes trade,” Levin said, going on to cite specific authority Congress granted Pres. Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR): “In 1934, Congress passed the Reciprocal Trade Agreements Act, which gave President Franklin Roosevelt the ability to change tariff rates by fifty percent and negotiate bilateral trade agreements without additional approval from Congress.” “Why? Well, you look at Congress right now,” Levin explained: “The Democrats closed the government. The Republicans have very small majorities. The Framers understood this. This is why, in national security and foreign policy issues, the president is commander-in-chief – with some input from Congress, no question. “But, quick decisions, emergency decisions, fundamental decisions, you have an executive branch. Congress still have the power to pass legislation, has the power of the budget to withhold monies for certain acts by the executive branch – but, sometimes, decisions have to be made.” “So, to me, there was no non-delegation issue, this 1934 act, or to the Supreme Court,” Levin concluded. The Reciprocal Trade Agreements Act (RTAA) gave FDR the unilateral authority to adjust tariff rates, as well as to negotiate bilateral trade agreements. Between 1934 and 1939, Roosevelt used his RTAA authority to obtain trade agreements with 19 countries, helping the U.S. recover economically from the Great Depression. “Through the RTAA, Congress set the framework for international trade negotiations and empowered the President to exert American leadership in the international trading system,” the United States Trade Representative explains: “The RTAA served as an integral step in America’s transition from economic crisis to global leadership.  FDR believed that a complete and permanent recovery depended on strengthened international trade to increase domestic growth and demand.”

With The Great East Wing Calamity Cycle apparently behind us (zero seconds on ABC, CBS, NBC’s 10/27 nightly newscasts), one would think that the legacy networks would move off of their Democrat-coded shutdown coverage and relay increasing pressure in favor of the clean Continuing Resolution languishing before the Senate. Alas, this was not the case. The new Democrat pressure comes via the American Federation of Government Employees, the nation largest government worker union, which endorsed Kamala Harris in 2024. Per NBC News: The country’s largest union representing federal workers is calling for lawmakers to pass a short-term spending measure to immediately end the government shutdown, urging Democrats to abandon their current position and join Republicans in supporting a stopgap solution. “Both political parties have made their point, and still there is no clear end in sight,” American Federation of Government Employees President Everett Kelley wrote in a statement first shared with NBC News. “It’s time to pass a clean continuing resolution and end this shutdown today. No half measures, and no gamesmanship.” This is a significant piece of pressure on the Democrats and yet, no mention on the nightlies. Watch ABC’s report in its entirety, note its continued Dem-coding, and note the major omission: ABC WORLD NEWS TONIGHT 10/27/25 6:38 PM DAVID MUIR: Tonight, Day 27 now of the government shutdown. Tens of thousands going without pay, including air traffic controllers. They’re now setting up food banks at the airport. Jay O'Brien on The Hill for us. O'BRIEN: Tonight, tens of millions of Americans feeling the pain of this 27-day-long government shutdown like never before. Air traffic controller shortages triggering delays in Los Angeles and a ground stop in Austin. More and more air traffic controllers calling out sick, forced to work without pay.  TSA WORKER: All right. Drive safe. Have a good day. O’BRIEN: Food pantries now popping up at airports for struggling federal employees. TSA WORKER: We have a food bank. O’BRIEN: For TSA workers. That's got to be alarming to see. TSA WORKER: It's- it’s sad. It's unfortunate because they have to go to work. And they're not being paid. And they're doing a critical safety function for all of us. O'BRIEN: And tonight, fears of a looming hunger crisis as S.N.A.P. food assistance, a life line for roughly 42 million low-income Americans, is set to run out by the end of this week. In Michigan, Simone Wilks, a single mom of two young boys, worries how her family will get by without federal food assistance. SIMONE WILKS: My stomach dropped because I'm like, I’m already struggling. I'm already stretching food. It has been days where the kids will eat and I'll just survive off water. You know, because that's what I’ll have to do in November. O'BRIEN: At this pop-up kitchen serving unpaid federal workers in Washington, D.C., we met dozens fearful the shutdown could drag on for weeks. You don't have a lot of faith in congress to end this? FEDERAL WORKER: I do not, as much as I would hope that they would end it, I don't see it ending anytime soon. O'BRIEN: David, the Senate returned to Washington tonight, but there's no deal in sight to end this shutdown. Meantime, the House of Representatives is out on recess for the fifth straight week by order of the Speaker. Remember, Members of Congress by law are still paid even when the government is shut down. David. MUIR: Jay O’Brien live up on The Hill for us. Jay, thank you. Those TSA employees that Jay O’Brien interviewed? They are represented by the AFGE. And yet, there was no mention of the union call for an end to the shutdown anywhere to be seen. Instead, ABC runs a Democrat-coded item centered on hardship and suffering, intended to shift blame away from Senate Democrats who voted to shut the government down in the first place. For added emotional manipulation, there is the bit with the SNAP recipient under duress. CBS’s item by Caitlin Huey-Burns runs along similar lines- centered on federal employees and SNAP recipients, with no mention of the AFGE. This is a prime case of anti-news- wherein the public is given bits and pieces of narrative as the networks omit key details that might shift their thinking on any given issue. In other words, propaganda. Same as always. For the record, NBC ran no item on the shutdown. However, they were the only legacy nightly to cover the deranged bounty, advertised on TikTok, on Attorney General Pam Bondi’s head. Which CBS and ABC also omitted. Click “expand” to view the aforementioned report in its entirety, as aired on the CBS Evening News on Monday, October 28th, 2025: JOHN DICKERSON: The dark clouds of the government shutdown are spreading. MAURICE DuBOIS: It is now day 27, no negotiations are scheduled and Caitlin Huey-Burns reports federal workers and people who depend on government help are about to feel more pain. CAITLIN HUEY-BURNS: The turbulence of the government shutdown is getting worse. Many air traffic controllers will miss their first full paycheck tomorrow and flight disruptions are rising. More than 8800 lights were delayed nationwide yesterday. Landing in Washington, D.C., World Central Kitchen, Jose Andres' food charity often deployed to war zones and natural disasters, today it provided free meals for furloughed federal employee. But one free meal won't help the more than 40 million Americans, 1 in 8, who rely on federal food assistance. The USDA declared that “the well has run dry. At this time, there will be no benefits issued November 1st.” Erin Anis never thought she’d need SNAP benefits. But three bouts of cancer and a double knee replacement left her unable to work.  Having those resources, what does it mean for your life? ERIN ANIS: Everything. It means everything to me. HUEY-BURNS: What exactly do you think you would need you're going to do? ANIS: I will have to ask my children to help me. That's an awful feeling. HUEY-BURNS: How so? ANIS: For them to have to help me. It's tough to think about sometimes. HUEY-BURNS: She will also turn to her local food pantry. Shila Ulrich is CEO of the Central Pennsylvania Food Bank, and says she expects demand to increase. SHILA ULRICH: People are scared. It’s a moment where people don't know and  understand what is about to happen, whether or not they will get those benefits should the government open back up or when. HUEY-BURNS: Anis says she just wants lawmakers to talk to each other and find a solution.  ANIS: This should not be a political issue. This should be a human privilege to be fed. HUEY-BURNS: And the USDA says it will not tap into a contingency fund to pay for SNAP benefits because they say that's reserved for things like natural disasters. Now- there is a Republican proposal in the Senate to help pay for this program but, John and Maurice, it's unclear whether and when that would get a vote. DICKERSON: Caitlin Huey-Burns, thank you so much.
