One dog mom has been having a little trouble teaching her four-legged friend a classic trick. Finley the Bernedoodle is great at pretending to be dead when her owner mimics pulling the trigger, but what she fails to understand is that gunshots happen fast. This results in the slowest version of “play dead” you’ve ever seen — and it’s way funnier than the original! Vicky Ho shared a hilarious video of Finley performing the trick on social media. @vickkyyh Eh at least it’s cute #minibernedoodle #minibernedoodlepuppy #minibernedoodles #bernedoodle #bernedoodlepuppy #bernedoodlesoftiktok #slowestofthemall ♬ original sound – vickkyyh “Would you like to see the slowest bullet in the world?” the woman asked at the beginning of her clip. Then, she turned to Finley, who was lying on her tummy nearby. When Mom made a fake pistol with her fingers, the pooch started wagging her tail. “Bang,” Vicky said, pretending to fire the “gun.” Instead of responding, Finley continued to wag her tail, making direct eye contact with her owner the entire time. She stared silently for over ten seconds before finally rolling over, which she also took her sweet time doing. Even then, she was still wagging. This is definitely the slowest we’ve ever seen a dog play dead! “I told you it was slow,” the pet parent joked. Screengrab from TikTok Over 14 million people watched this hysterical video online, and viewers loved this pup’s delayed response! Many added that, no matter how long they thought the clip would be, it was somehow even longer. “It was worth the wait,” one person commented. Another chimed in, “I knew it was going to be slow and yet it still surprised me how slow it was.” Other users suspected that Finley wasn’t confused about the trick at all — she just didn’t want to do it! “She’s like… *sighs* ‘Fine…….. the things I do for you…………'” someone joked. Whether she’s doing it on purpose or she’s actually confused, this dog’s version of “play dead” is too funny. Is it wrong to hope that Finley never learns to do this trick correctly?

A blitz of early executive orders relating to issues ranging from immigration to gender came out of the Oval Office on Monday night as newly seated President Donald Trump wasted no time after his inauguration enacting his agenda.  Now, early polling indicates the American public is reacting positively to Trump’s actions, according to a new survey by the Napolitan News Service released Friday.  Trump reinstated his “Remain in Mexico” policy from his first term in a Day One executive order. The policy—reversed by the Biden administration in 2021, but now back in effect—requires asylum-seekers coming through Mexico to remain there until entering the United States for asylum hearings.  Sixty-five percent of voters prefer Trump’s Remain in Mexico policy, rather than former President Joe Biden’s catch-and-release program, with 23% supporting Biden’s approach, according to the poll. Democrats and those who lean Democratic are divided on the issue with 43% and 44% pluralities, respectively, supporting the Biden approach, while Republicans and GOP leaners prefer Trump’s approach by 90% or more. Hispanic voters prefer Trump’s approach by a margin of 51% to 40%.  In another Day One executive order, Trump declared the federal government recognizes just two sexes, male and female. The executive order does away with the previous administration’s language of “gender identity.”   “It is the policy of the United States to recognize two sexes, male and female,” the executive order reads. “These sexes are not changeable and are grounded in fundamental and incontrovertible reality.”   Voters approved of the president’s declaration by a 2-to-1 margin of 62% to 31%, according to the poll. Eighty-nine percent of Republicans approved of it, while just 36% of Democrats did.  When asked whether Trump should be required to keep government agency officials appointed by Biden, 28% respond affirmatively, while 56% said the new president should be allowed to appoint new leaders who share his views.   The president also received high ratings from poll respondents for his inaugural address Monday.  Out of 72% of respondents who watched at least some of it or news highlights of the inaugural address, 38% rated the president’s speech as “excellent.” Twenty-seven percent rated the speech as “good,” and 17% rated it as “fair.”  The online poll—which surveyed a weighted sample of 1,000 registered voters on Jan. 21 and 22, and had a 3.1% margin of error—indicates Republicans were more likely to watch the address than Democrats.  The post Poll Finds Americans Approve of Trump’s Early Actions on Border, Gender  appeared first on The Daily Signal.

In less than 12 hours Tuesday, three news stories featuring anonymous Republican senators undermining President Donald Trump’s nominee for director of national intelligence appeared across D.C. newspapers. The pieces are part of a whisper campaign, not by Democrats but by Republican senators keen on blocking Tulsi Gabbard from the post. But what threat does the former Democratic congresswoman pose in a role that is largely charged with coordinating intelligence? When the goal is total consensus, independent thinking is enough to attack your own president’s nominee. An independent voice in the room is crucial, even if she’s not always correct. Jewish Insider was first in the press salvo, publishing Tuesday morning that “DNI nominee Tulsi Gabbard faces rocky road to confirmation.” The paper, a small, conservative, hawkish publication, has played a vocal role in opposing the president’s proposed foreign policy realignment and nominees. The day before its Gabbard piece, Jewish Insider published an article criticizing the administration’s pick for deputy assistant secretary of defense for the Middle East, Michael DiMino, and undersecretary of defense for policy, Elbridge Colby — both for apparently not stridently cheerleading for war with Iran. On Monday, Jewish Insider attacked Trump confidant Tucker Carlson for reportedly not standing from his seat at the mention of Hamas’ Israeli hostages. On Wednesday, it published an article criticizing Dan Caldwell, an Iraq War veteran who advocates a more prudent, less hawkish foreign policy, over his role advising personnel decisions at the Department of Defense, as well as an interview with avowed Trump opponent Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), touting his opposition to a more restrained foreign policy. Twelve hours after Jewish Insider’s piece hit the shelves, Axios and Semafor followed suit. “Snowden support threatens Tulsi Gabbard's Senate confirmation,” the Axios headline read. “Gabbard’s nomination on shaky ground,” Semafor echoed. All three stories relied on myriad nameless Republican senators who took turns expressing doubts about the president’s nominee. None put their names out. The goal? As longtime Senate staffer and observer Rachel Bovard explained: “To create the appearance of momentum against Gabbard without ever owning the position in the light of day.” So what is the position of director of national intelligence, and why are so many senators threatened by Gabbard’s nomination? The DNI has no real budget to speak of. It’s an office created after 9/11, charged with coordinating and providing direction to the U.S. intelligence agencies as well as with briefing the president. In short, its influence is greater than its actual power. Central Intelligence Agency nominee John Ratcliffe and national security adviser Mike Waltz aren’t getting the same pushback because, while not neocons, they’re also not about to start flipping tables in the national security world. They’re not major disruptors, so they’re allowed. The problem Gabbard poses to these hawks is not that she could derail the CIA or National Security Council so much as that she could be an influential independent voice in the room, one who has disagreed repeatedly with the intelligence community’s various consensuses, for better and for worse. An independent voice in the room is crucial, even if she’s not always correct. Over the last eight years, powerful forces within the American intelligence community have tried to destroy Donald J. Trump. Groupthink has dominated since the dawn of the Cold War. Presidents John F. Kennedy, Richard Nixon, and Ronald Reagan all tangled with that groupthink during their presidencies. Gabbard cuts a different way from most in “the Blob.” That’s an important asset to a president who, for example, might want a jaundiced eye on McConnell’s defense appropriations agenda. The political reality is that the neoconservatives have caught their breath after the gut punch delivered to Sen. Joni Ernst (D-Iowa) over her initial opposition to Pete Hegseth for secretary of defense. They behaved themselves for a week and now are ready for another fight — but not ready to come out into the open yet. Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) was quiet when the whisper campaign first debuted but issued a statement on X after the Beltway Brief reached out to his office. “The media wants to deny President Trump’s crucial national security nominees a fair hearing by running anonymous smears," Cotton posted Thursday afternoon. “This playbook may have worked in the past. It won’t anymore.” He didn’t mention Gabbard by name. Cotton, a member of the more interventionist wing of the party, very likely wants to extract further concessions before he’s a yes. Still, the message to his colleagues on Senate Intel was clear enough: Cut it out. Cotton also scheduled Gabbard’s hearing as soon as he received the Federal Bureau of Investigation report Thursday. Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) would do well to follow suit, publicly backing Gabbard if Republicans continue to pave a “rocky road” for the president's pick.
