President Donald Trump’s border czar, Tom Homan, reacted to the viral video of actress Selena Gomez shedding tears over the mass deportations that began last week. In the now-deleted Instagram video, Gomez filmed herself crying while saying, “All my people are getting attacked, the children. I don’t understand. I’m so sorry, I wish I could do something, but I can’t. I don’t know what to do. I’ll try everything, I promise.”  Homan appeared on Fox News yesterday and said he would make no apologies for the actions being taken by the Trump administration. He also denied Gomez’s assertion that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents were targeting children. Homan reiterated that the main targets were illegal aliens with criminal records. “I met with hundreds of Angel Moms and Dads who are separated from their children because they buried them because they were killed by illegal aliens,” Homan said Monday during an appearance on “Hannity.” “We got a half a million children who were sex trafficked into this country, separated from their families, put in the hands of criminal cartels to be smuggled into the country. This administration can’t find over 300,000. Where’s the tears for them?” Homan explained the benefits of these arrests in a separate Fox News interview, saying national security is the main goal. “If they don’t like it, then go to Congress and change the law,” Homan said. “We’re going to do this operation without apology. We’re gonna make our community safer. It is all for the good of this nation. And we’re gonna keep going. No apologies. We’re moving forward.”  NEW—Border Czar Tom Homan will not be cowed by sobbing celebrities like Selena Gomez: “If they don’t like it, then go to Congress and change the law…We’re going to do this operation without apology. We’re gonna make our community safer.” ??pic.twitter.com/Z8Q1pl9TUz — Charlie Kirk (@charliekirk11) January 27, 2025 President Trump signed multiple executive orders after his inauguration, which included designating drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations and declaring a national emergency at the southern border. TV host Dr. Phil went on a ride-along with Homan on Sunday and said he and his team witnessed the arrest of a criminal illegal alien from Thailand who was previously convicted of sex crimes against children.  As of Monday, ICE reported having made 1,179 arrests. 

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s nomination as Secretary of Health and Human Services by President Trump has sparked a significant political storm. With the Senate Finance Committee preparing to review his candidacy, Kennedy faces scrutiny over his controversial statements on vaccines and abortion rights. Among his detractors is former Vice President Mike Pence, who has vocally opposed Kennedy’s nomination. Contentious Views Spark Concerns Kennedy’s outspoken views on vaccines have unsettled both Democrats and Republicans, with some labeling him a source of misinformation. This skepticism extends to his position on abortion, stirring apprehension within conservative circles. Senate Republicans, including Sen. Bill Cassidy, have expressed unease about Kennedy’s vaccine skepticism. He argues for “medical freedom” and endorses theories that have been widely debunked. These controversial stances form the crux of the heated debate surrounding his potential confirmation. Hawaii Gov. Josh Green previously criticized Kennedy for his role during a 2019 measles outbreak in Samoa, where misinformation allegedly contributed to fatalities. Concerns are heightened because Kennedy supports abortion rights, conflicting with the conservative pro-life agenda. His attempts to align with Trump’s policies have not swayed prominent figures like Mike Pence, who remains steadfast in his opposition. My response is…. who is Mike Pence? https://t.co/XJVACJhz6O — Robert F. Kennedy Jr – Parody (@RobertKennedyJc) January 15, 2025 Pence Amplifies Opposition Pence calls for rejection of Kennedy’s nomination, emphasizing the potential departure from a pro-life administration under Trump-Pence. His advocacy group, Advancing American Freedom, has launched a substantial ad campaign against Kennedy, further backed by conservative influencers like Leonard Leo. These efforts reflect broader concerns within the Republican Party regarding Trump’s cabinet selections, particularly amid pressing public health challenges. The urgency of the situation is underscored by criticisms from medical professionals, illustrating the high stakes of Kennedy’s appointment. “extraordinarily bad choice” – Dr. Ashish Jha Kennedy attempts to mitigate the backlash by reinforcing his alignment with Trump’s health goals, yet skepticism remains. Anti-abortion activists question his commitment to conservative values, fearing potential policy shifts. As he prepares to defend his record and clarify his intentions before the Senate, Kennedy’s response will be pivotal in shaping his confirmation’s outcome. Within this politically charged environment, the pathway to leading a major health department is fraught with challenges. Because he is in bed with big pharmahttps://t.co/zQnA4eE9ts — Alan Billman (@alanbillman) January 15, 2025 Broader Implications If confirmed, Kennedy would oversee a federal department critical to public health advancements and emergency responsiveness. His history of contentious remarks raises concerns about his potential impact on vaccine policies and medical research strategies. This situation highlights the intricate balance between respecting individual liberties and safeguarding public health, a crucial debate in the current political landscape. Trump’s other controversial nominations, like Matt Gaetz, emphasize the administration’s current direction and the challenges it faces. The outcome of Kennedy’s nomination holds significant weight for the future administration’s policy direction, representing a litmus test for the Republican Party’s alignment with traditional values in an evolving political climate. As the process unfolds, key stakeholders and the public continue to vigilantly observe the proceedings, anticipating the broader effects on both national governance and global public health strategies.

If one of my favorite brands or restaurants makes an announcement about a new food, you can bet I’ll be checking it out. Just this month, there have been two big updates. One came from Taco Bell, which recently added a number of new items to its menu. Then there are the rumors of a new Wendy’s Frosty. Now, we’re getting an unexpected collab with Cinnamon Toast Crunch: Totino’s. Yes, the very Totino’s that offers a number of delicious pizza-based foods, including pizza rolls. Confused as to how these two brands could possibly collaborate? Well, it turns out, the flavor of Cinnamon Toast Crunch pairs quite nicely with pizza flavors. Or, at the very least, it makes for an interesting combo worthy of sharing with the public! View this post on Instagram A post shared by Pete ZaRoll (@totinos) Cinnamon Toast Crunch and Totino’s Pizza… the Collab Absolutely Nobody Asked For! While Cinnamon Toast Crunch has been involved in a few collabs in the past, none are quite as bizarre as this one. Here’s what you can expect: Cereal that has cinnamon, cheese, and tomato sauce flavors. This odd mixture will be “delivered” to customers in a box that is similar to classic pizza boxes. Here’s the catch: This unique flavor won’t be around for long. In fact, you won’t even be able to find it in stores. This product is being released just ahead of the 2025 Super Bowl, and it can only be found on the Cinnamon Toast Crunch website. But that’s not where the weirdness of this collab ends! View this post on Instagram A post shared by Pete ZaRoll (@totinos) When this pizza-cinnamon combo becomes available TONIGHT at 7 p.m. EST, there will only be 1,000 boxes up for grabs. What’s more, they will be totally free! Needless to say, if you would like to snag one of these rare boxes, you’ll want to be quick. Is this because fans of Cinnamon Toast Crunch or Totino’s expect this bizarre cereal to taste good? Not at all! On the contrary, many have insisted this is the perfect example of, “Just because you can do something doesn’t mean you should.” Even still, I have to admit, giving this collab a shot does sound pretty tempting… how many other people will be able to say that tried it, after all? I’m sure it would make for quite a story! This story’s featured image is by Olivier Douliery via Getty Images.

They say being lazy is not good, but hear me out. A lazy person will still get things done, but they will find the most straightforward way to do it. We owe countless inventions to the art of being lazy: the wheelbarrow, the hand truck, the lever and fulcrum (and seesaws, of course). If a tool makes a job more manageable, it was probably invented by a lazy person. That’s why this lazy dad’s snow hack is genius. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Jack (@_jackmcpherson) With the snow forecast, this dad went to work. He got busy hours before the snow was due to prepare his lazy man’s cheat. Jack McPherson’s dad is the man behind this snow hack. He started with a plastic tarp. It looks like the heavy, clear plastic used by painters. It’s an easy hack. He rolled the plastic from the porch steps and down the walkway to his house. Once the plastic was in place, he probably weighted the corners to keep it in place. Regular bricks would work nicely. After the snow stopped, Jack’s dad started on the porch. As he pulled the plastic down, the tarp was rolling the accumulated snow down the walk. If you hate shoveling snow, this is an innovative alternative. This trick works on walkways, porches, and even vehicles. Image from Instagram. Once you get the walks clear, you can have some fun in the snow. Another dad invented a sledding hack that is truly a lazy man’s trick. He attaches a cable to the sled and lets the child sled down the hill. To bring the sled and kid back up, he uses a drill to rewind the cable. Zero wasted energy. Tons of fun. Please share if you enjoyed these dad snow hacks. You can find the source of this story’s featured image here. The post Hate Shoveling Snow?
