MSNBC is reportedly canceling the weekend show of radical opinion host Mehdi Hasan as it looks to shake things up with a new lineup. The far-left network announced the move to staff on Thursday morning‚ Semafor reported‚ adding that Hasan will now become “an on-camera analyst and fill-in host.” Hasan’s Peacock streaming series is also coming to an end. The network will launch a new show called “The Weekend” on Saturdays and Sundays and make other changes to take over Hasan’s time slot. The changes are effective January 13‚ 2024. Deadline reported that the show will be hosted by liberal Republican Michael Steele‚ former Biden administration official Symone Sanders-Townsend‚ and Alicia Menendez‚ whose father‚ Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ)‚ is under federal criminal investigation over an alleged foreign bribery scheme. “The Weekend will provide thoughtful analysis and coverage from three trusted voices familiar to the MSNBC audience‚” the network said in a press release. “The program will deliver in-depth commentary and thought-provoking conversations on the state of democracy‚ particularly as the 2024 presidential election kicks off. It will also feature interviews with newsmakers‚ including reporters‚ thought leaders and politicians.” Hasan frequently attacks Israel and has gone as far as to defend anti-Semitic Boycott‚ Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) campaigns. Hasan‚ who previously worked for Qatari propaganda network Al Jazeera‚ has compared non-Muslims to “animals” and homosexuals to “pedophiles.” MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan has compared non-Muslims to "animals" and homosexuals to "pedophiles" and "sexual deviants" Hard to imagine MSNBC allowing someone on television who said similar things about a different religion — let alone giving them a show! pic.twitter.com/CGBo4suQdh — Jon Levine (@LevineJonathan) November 27‚ 2023 Hasan has also repeatedly defended notorious anti-Semites like Reps. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) and Ilhan Omar (D-MN). Israeli advisor Mark Regev slammed Hasan during an interview earlier this month for promoting “disinformation” on his show‚ claiming that Israel had turned down a deal to have hostages freed. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP “Sorry‚ Mehdi‚ that’s just disinformation‚” Regev said. “There was not a real option for a deal before the grand operation. It was looked at seriously but Hamas put nothing on the table that could be worked with and so that’s just not correct to say there was an option.” Regev also blasted Hasan for not informing his audience that the Gaza Health Ministry is controlled by the Hamas terrorist group and that the information it releases is largely considered to be propaganda. “You have to say the ‘Hamas-controlled Gaza Health Ministry‚” Regev said‚ prompting Hasan to lash out: “I don’t have to say what you ask me to say.” “Please‚ tell the viewers the truth‚ that information is provided by Hamas‚” Regev said.

On Wednesday night‚ pro-Palestinian demonstrators fought with officers from the New York Police Department while trying to disrupt the annual lighting of the giant Christmas tree at Rockefeller Center in Manhattan. Ahead of the event‚ pro-Palestinian groups had issued a “call for action‚” in which they insisted “Jesus was a Palestinian‚” rather than Jewish. The call for action stated‚ “Flood The Tree Lighting‚” using “flood” in an apparent reference to the name Hamas terrorists used for the October massacre of Israelis‚ “Operation Al-Aqsa Flood.” Prior to the event‚ a spokesman for the NYPD’s Intelligence and Counterterrorism Bureau stated‚ “We do anticipate that there will be protests in the city on Wednesday — to include around the area of the tree lighting — and at future gatherings around the city in the days and weeks to come‚ as we have seen over the past seven weeks. The NYPD will be on hand to protect the tree lighting and all those attending‚ and we will not tolerate disruption or any threats to public safety.” Some of the demonstrators actively fought with police‚ with some of the rioters yelling‚ “Shut it down‚” while others broke through police barricades. One man masked in a keffiyeh burned an NYPD hat‚ and one taunted NYPD officers‚ yelling‚ “Do you want to get shot now? Which one of y’all want to get Derek Chauvin’d? I’d give you that Chris Dorner treatment real quick!” Chris Dorner was a former officer of the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) who committed revenge killings targeting the LAPD that left four people dead. Dorner wrote in his manifesto‚ “I will bring unconventional and asymmetrical warfare to those in LAPD uniform whether on or off duty. ISR [intelligence‚ surveillance and reconnaissance] is my strength and your weakness. You will now live the life of the prey.” Footage of the riotous demonstration at Rockefeller Center has circulated online.

An FBI agent was carjacked in Washington‚ D.C.‚ on Wednesday‚ according to authorities‚ adding another high-profile incident in the nation’s capital this year in which rampant crime has impacted federal officials and their families. Law enforcement sources told ABC News the victim‚ identified as a special agent‚ was driving a blue Chevy Malibu that contained the agent’s body armor and radio when the vehicle was stolen at gunpoint in the afternoon near the 1200 block of Constitution Avenue NE. The FBI released a statement to media in the evening that said‚ “At this time‚ we can confirm that an FBI employee was carjacked on the afternoon of November 29. The vehicle was recovered‚ and the FBI Washington Field Office and the Metropolitan Police Department’s Carjacking Task Force are investigating.” D.C. police said the federal agent reported two suspects taking the vehicle and the car was found in the 1000 block of 15th Street SE about 25 minutes after officers were called to respond‚ according to NBC Washington. As of late Thursday morning‚ there were no updates on any arrests. The Daily Wire reached out to the FBI and D.C. police seeking the latest information. Crime is surging across the nation’s capital in 2023‚ affecting people from all walks of life and prompting a push to implement harsher penalties. Preliminary police data show more than 6‚300 reports of auto thefts — which amounts to roughly a 93% spike compared to this time last year — and 911 “carjacking offenses” while violent crime has also risen. Car theft is so rampant in D.C. that local officials recently began handing out free tracking tags for residents to put in their cars in case the vehicles get stolen.

Hugh Grant is once again sharing his unfiltered thoughts with the public‚ this time telling the world how much he “hated” his role of an Oompa Loompa in the new “Wonka” movie. The 63-year-old British actor made his feelings known while speaking at a press conference for the movie‚ per Metro UK. “Drivel‚” Grant said of the project. “It was like a crown of thorns‚ very uncomfortable.” He specifically mentioned how he didn’t care to have multiple cameras focused on him all at once to help animators capture his movements‚ the outlet noted.  “I made a big fuss about it‚” he added. “I couldn’t have hated the whole thing more.” Grant also said he didn’t know if he was supposed to act with just his face or his whole body‚ a problem he claims was never resolved. “I never received a satisfactory answer‚” the “Notting Hill” star said. “And frankly‚ what I did with my body was terrible‚ and it’s all been replaced with an animator.” He continued‚ “It’s very confusing‚ with CGI now — you can’t tell what’s going on.” CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP This isn’t the first time Grant has disparaged his own work. In 2014‚ he told late night host James Corden he would “happily shred my IMDb page‚ my CV‚ because I specialized in being bad for decades.” “Wonka” is a prequel to Roald Dahl’s children’s book‚ “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory‚” and follows chocolatier Willy Wonka as a young man before he becomes the eccentric character in the story. The original book was previously adapted into the popular movie “Willy Wonka &; the Chocolate Factory” (1971) and a Johnny Depp-led remake‚ “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory‚” in 2005.  “Wonka” stars Timothée Chalamet as the titular character‚ and critics are already praising him for his performance. Film director Paul King told the Metro in July that he envisioned Grant was an Oompa Loompa because of his cantankerous demeanor.  “So I was really just thinking about that character; somebody who could be a real s***‚ and then — ah! Hugh‚” King said. “Because he’s the funniest‚ most sarcastic s*** I’ve ever met.”

The USS Carney shot down an Iranian-built drone over the Red Sea this week as U.S. forces throughout the region continue to come under attack from Iran’s terrorist proxies. “At approximately 1100 (Sanaa time)‚ while in the South Red Sea‚ the Arleigh-Burke Class Guided Missile Destroyer USS Carney (DDG 64) shot down an Iranian-produced KAS-04 unmanned aerial vehicle launched from Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen‚” U.S. Central Command said in a statement. “Although its intentions are not known‚ the UAV was heading toward the warship.” “At the time of the shoot down‚ the USS Carney was escorting the USNS SUPPLY (Oiler) and another U.S. flagged and crewed ship carrying military equipment to the region‚” the statement continued. “There were no injuries to U.S. personnel and no damage to U.S. vessels.” The incident comes as there have been various hijackings‚ attempted hijackings‚ and attacks on large cargo and tanker ships in the region. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP Iran’s terrorist proxies throughout the region have attacked U.S. forces more than 74 times over the last six weeks‚ but President Joe Biden has “rejected more aggressive bombing options proposed by the Pentagon” to keep U.S. forces safe to avoid “provoking” Iran‚ according to the New York Times. Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) said that the only way to stop the attacks would be to launch a “massive retaliation to make it clear we will not tolerate these attacks on Americans.” Related: Iranian Drone Harasses U.S. Aircraft Carrier In Persian Gulf

Being a crane operator is no easy task‚ especially when you’re working with massive buildings. Thankfully‚ there are folks like Glen Edwards — he’s been a successful crane operator for the past 30 years. Still‚ even this seasoned professional felt out of his element when a fire recently broke out at a construction site. When fire alarms went off‚ Glen prepared to flee for safety‚ only to notice someone stuck on a roof of the burning high-rise‚ waving their coat around to signal for help. He then received a radio call‚ prompting him to take swift action to rescue the man. YouTube Burning High-Rise Out of View All of the smoke from the flames threatened to make Glen’s job impossible. But with the help of those who did have a better view‚ he was able to navigate the crane to where the trapped man could escape. As you can imagine‚ Glen says his adrenaline was “through the roof.” “When I landed the rescue cradle — as he just touched down — I could feel the weight‚” Glen recalled. “I could hear the crowd‚ but I couldn’t see him‚ I was 100% blind.” YouTube Once Glen got the man to safety‚ the celebrations began. But after the stress from such a high-anxiety situation‚ he needed a moment to himself. “[Then] I landed him on the ground safely‚” he shared. “I had a job to stand up after‚ put it that way. I was really shaken‚ I needed a quiet minute to get myself together.” Crane Operator Hailed a Hero Since then‚ Glen has become known as a hero. He’s surprised by how big the story about him has gotten‚ insisting that he isn’t the only one who deserves recognition for the rescue. “I got a bit emotional watching it [a video of the rescue]‚ it was something else‚” Glen said. “I know I got the guy out‚ but it just wasn’t all about me.” YouTube Still‚ others are insistent on the fact that Glen has earned every bit of praise he’s getting for his brave actions. “If he had been any longer‚ it would have been a very different ending‚” a fellow construction worker said.

A group of farmers have proven that‚ where there’s wool‚ there’s a way! Fiona the sheep spent two years living all by herself in a cave at the foot of a cliff in Scotland before being safely rescued and relocated. It’s unclear how she ended up there in the first place‚ but WBAL-TV says she likely fell down the slope as a lamb and was unable to escape. Her five rescuers used a large feed bag to transport her back up the cliff. Kristine Sosa/Facebook After living alone for so long‚ Fiona desperately needed a haircut. Not only did she look dirty and unkempt‚ but she was also carrying a lot of extra bulk. The farmers ended up shearing off 20 pounds of wool! Kristine Sosa/Facebook Fiona is now being cared for at Dalscone Farms‚ which is open to the public. Some protestors have voiced their disapproval of her new home‚ claiming that she should be in a sanctuary instead of on display. However‚ at least she won’t have to deal with onlookers right away. Staff promises that she’ll have plenty of time to get situated before the farm opens again in the spring. Kristine Sosa/Facebook A group of animal rights activists were in the process of attempting a rescue before the farmers stepped in. They had been slowly gaining Fiona’s trust over the course of several visits. Perhaps this is why she was reportedly so calm while being carried up the cliff!

No matter your taste in music‚ odds are‚ you enjoy the song “Jolene” — and that includes the many covers countless singers have made over the years. This classic song is one of Dolly Parton’s most popular ones‚ and it’s one she still sings to this day. It’s no wonder why: It has a catchy tune‚ and the story it tells is still considered to be unique. It was released in 1974‚ but folks still ask Parton about it to this day. Parton recently opened up about “Jolene” and its continued success in an interview with Vulture. After 40 years‚ turns out‚ there’s still much to say about the beloved song. This is what she had to say when asked what makes it so special. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Dolly Parton (@dollyparton) “Jolene’s” Relatability “With ‘Jolene‚’ I remember hearing so many people say‚ ‘That’s such a humble song. It’s a true song‚'” Parton said. “For a woman to say‚ ‘I can’t compete with you. I’m not as beautiful as you‚ I’m never going to be that beautiful. Your beauty is beyond compare‚ but I don’t have all that going for me.’ It was unusual at the time in songwriting.” This sentiment is one that Parton says many women relate with‚ and they frequently tell her just that. Parton herself says that it’s about “loving him enough to understand how he would fall in love with someone else because they’re that beautiful.” Parton believes that it’s this brutal honestly that causes so many to connection with the song. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Dolly Parton (@dollyparton) “People thought it was a very honest‚ open‚ and humble kind of song about the subject‚” Parton said. “Nobody had been writing about affairs from that side of it — to go to the person who was trying to steal your man.” Dolly Parton’s Take On Feeling Threatened If you’re like me‚ you’ve likely wondered‚ at least once‚ how it is that Parton could feel threatened by another woman. After all‚ she is known to be beautiful herself. This is also something she addressed in this interview‚ and her response is amazing. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Dolly Parton (@dollyparton) “Look‚ there’s always somebody more beautiful than you‚” Parton explained. “There’s always somebody more special than you‚ and you’re going to always feel a bit threatened and insecure when it comes to someone you love. There’s a certain amount of fear that you hope to be able to hang on to them and you don’t want to take anything for granted.” Truly‚ it’s no wonder that Parton is still such a beloved icon after all these years!
