I don’t often like to use headlines that say “So and so DESTROYED so and so” or “So and so DUNKED ON so and so”. I think headlines like that are often vastly overused and they often under-deliver. But not this one. Press Sec. Karoline Leavitt was in the zone today dealing with the press and when some hack, balding “journalist” hit her with a hack question, she let him have it! Watch here: STRAIGHT FIRE FROM @PressSec: “You’re a left-wing hack. You’re not a reporter. You’re posing in this room as a journalist… You and the people in the media who have such biases but fake like you’re a journalist — you shouldn’t even be sitting in that seat.” pic.twitter.com/CtYTcCymtl — The White House (@WhiteHouse) January 15, 2026 Way to go Karoline! That’s a TKO! I love how he just sat there after the beatdown, completely and totally accepting his defeat!

President Trump and Elizabeth Warren — new political allies? These two don’t seem to agree on virtually anything, but perhaps if there is one topic they might agree on it is capping obscene usury interest rates on credit cards charged by the credit card companies. Proving once again that President Trump is willing to work with anyone, he called Elizabeth Warren out of the blue this week to discuss that issue and to ask if she would support his efforts. Watch Warren speak about the call here: Elizabeth Warren received a call from President Trump regarding capping credit card interest rates at 10%. She was so shocked. She didn’t recognize the number. She doesn’t get that he will work with ANYONE if it means helping Americans. pic.twitter.com/BuyvCkxcLR — Mila Joy (@Milajoy) January 15, 2026 While President Trump offered generosity and cooperation, even as she speaks about the call you can hear the disdain in her voice. What a miserable person! She actually gets a call from the most powerful man in the world offering to work together to champion one of her causes, and it seems that hatred is more important to her, proving once again Elizabeth Warren is all talk, no action. Actually, if the truth were told, I think it runs deeper than this…. While Elizabeth Warren ACTS like she wants to fight for the little guy and go after the big bad bankers, my observation is she protects the big bankers every chance she gets! She talks her book and rants and raves about them, but she always seems to end up advancing their causes. Like her war on crypto…. Why does Elizabeth Warren hate crypto so much?  Shouldn’t she love it?  Shouldn’t she love how it helps bank the unbankable?  Should she like how it removes the middleman and the expensive middleman fees? Except she doesn’t like it.  She hates it. Why? Because the Big Bankers that she serves are extremely threatened by it! Here is the Donald Trump called me today. It’s long past time to deliver lower costs for working people. pic.twitter.com/DTpLureu2g — Elizabeth Warren (@SenWarren) January 12, 2026 FULL STATEMENT HERE: Senator Warren Statement on Her Call with President Donald Trump Washington, DC – United States Senator Elizabeth Warren, Ranking Member of the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee released the following statement: “This morning, I gave a speech noting how Donald Trump is driving up costs for families, sowing terror and chaos in our communities, and abusing his power to prosecute anyone who criticizes him. I also laid out an argument for how Democrats should fight back and win. In my remarks, I made it clear that despite promising to lower costs On Day One, Trump has done nothing but raise costs for families. I said that if he really wants to get something done, including capping credit card interest rates or lowering housing costs, he would use his leverage and pick up the phone. “After my speech, the President called me, and I delivered this same message on affordability to him directly. I told him that Congress can pass legislation to cap credit card rates if he will actually fight for it. I also urged him to get House Republicans to pass the bipartisan ROAD to Housing Act, which passed the Senate with unanimous support and would build more housing and lower costs. “No more delays. It’s time to deliver relief for American families.” ### Now ask yourself, does that sound like someone who really wants to help Americans, or someone who is grandstanding and wants to do the exact opposite? She is fake as hell, Pocahontas till the bitter end! More fake outrage from Pocahontas here: President Trump said yesterday he’s considering steps to ban institutional investors from buying single-family homes. I asked Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) if that’s something she could work with him on. Her response: Trump is “not serious” about lowering housing costs. pic.twitter.com/u21bSc4Qex — Chase Williams (@ChaseWilliams_) January 8, 2026 Ugh, I can’t stand the sound of her shrill voice!

Brnovich was nominated by President Donald Trump in March to become the U.S. Ambassador to Serbia. His nomination was later withdrawn in October. Brnovich ran unsuccessfully for the U.S. Senate in 2022. “Joyce and I are truly saddened to hear of Mark Brnovich’s passing. Mark was a steadfast public servant who loved Arizona and spent his life fighting for the rule of law and justice. Beyond the titles, he was a devoted husband, father, son, and brother—and that’s the loss that matters most today. We’re praying for the Brnovich family and everyone who loved him.

David Schweikert (@RepDavid) January 13, 2026 The Associated Press shared further: Colleagues and friends of Brnovich praised him for his work in public service that included stints as a judge, a prosecutor, lawyer and the director of the Arizona Department of Gaming. Former Republican Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey said Brnovich’s passion for the law, justice and victims were hallmarks of his career. “For those of us blessed to call him a friend, his humor, positivity, and happy warrior spirit were infectious. May he rest in peace,” Ducey said on the social platform X. Brnovich, a Republican, was in his second term as attorney general in Arizona when his office investigated the 2020 election. Arizona was among the states Joe Biden won that year to deny Trump reelection to the presidency. Brnovich released an interim report in April 2022 that outlined his concerns with some election procedures but did not provide any proof of major issues despite six months of investigation. At the time, Brnovich was seeking the Republican nomination for a U.S. Senate seat and facing fierce criticism from Trump, who claimed he wasn’t doing enough to prosecute election fraud. Brnovich wanted an endorsement from Trump but didn’t get it.
