But there is one piece of news that will be new to the vast majority of Americans because it’s either been completely misrepresented or ignored altogether. There are emerging signs that the Democrats’ supposedly unbreakable hold on the minds of young people is weaker than it seems. Sure, American young people are liberal. You know it, I know it, everyone knows it. But did you know they’re getting less liberal?...

“Zombieland,” one Redditor said. “First a slightly gory but funny wrap-up of the Zombie Apocalypse followed by a spectacular slow-motion intro sequence while ‘For Whom the Bell Tolls’ from Metallica is played. Still gives me goosebumps 11 years later.” “Metallica and zombies in slow motion is an awesome combination,” another agreed. “Goodfellas,” one Redditor said (which is obviously the correct answer). “As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a gangster,” another wrote, quoting Ray Liotta’s iconic opening lines....

Trump frequently takes aim at adversaries online, while Biden himself has also used the digital realm to hit back at the Republican incumbent as of late. But while each campaign looks to utilize the platforms, the scale of followers for each is slanted—and much in Trump’s favor. However, the level of engagement Biden receives does not reflect the scale of this difference in following. On Twitter, for example, the president has 86....

Hundreds of Trump’s supporters attacked the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021 in an apparent effort to disrupt the formal certification of President Joe Biden’s Electoral College victory.

In his presidential Christmas message on Wednesday, Trump called for unity among Americans. While the challenges that face our country are great, the bonds that unite us as Americans are much stronger," the president said. “Together, we must strive to foster a culture of deeper understanding and respect—traits that exemplify the teachings of Christ.” Trump also paid tribute to the Armed Forces and wished Americans a merry Christmas and happy New Year....

In a recent social media jab at Biden, the president shared a photoshopped image of the former vice president in a retirement home with the words “Biden for Resident” underneath. Trump, 74, has previously thrown such insults at Biden, 77—suggesting the Democrat had dementia, a syndrome which largely impacts the elderly, while also criticizing his cognitive ability and nicknaming him “Sleepy Joe.” While Trump’s attacks coincide with polling indicating members of the public do have reservations over Biden’s age, there is a risk that they may not benefit him politically....

Gen. Kenneth McKenzie, commander of the United States General Command, admitted on Friday that the attack killed 10 civilians, including as many as seven children, although the military had previously said that the August 29 strike was necessary to prevent Islamic state militant group ISIS-K from launching new terrorist attacks. Trump responded to the news by releasing a statement through his Save America PAC that argued the attack went awry due to the Biden administration attempting to act like “tough guys” because the country had “surrendered” to the Taliban and caused the military’s chaotic withdrawal....

The select congressional committee spent months investigating the Capitol riot, which saw a mob of Trump supporters violently attempt to force Congress to block President Joe Biden’s 2020 Electoral College victory. Committee members have sought to prove Trump’s involvement in inciting the violence and failing to prevent its escalation. On Monday, the committee convened for its final meeting. In addition to voting unanimously to approve the final report, which is set to be released later this week, the committee also issued four criminal referrals against the former president....

According to The Washington Post which cited multiple sources inside the White House who spoke on condition of anonymity, Trump has grown increasingly worried over the slow progress his administration has made on bringing his border wall vision to fruition. As Newsweek reported on Tuesday, the U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency has so far completed just over 13 percent of the construction of the 450 miles of border wall that the Trump administration has vowed to see built by the end of 2020....

Glenn Kirschner, a former federal prosecutor, told MSNBC’s The ReidOut that the DoJ is “about to play catch up” to some federal judges with regards to ruling the former president committed a crime before and after the January 6 insurrection. Kirschner noted how District Court Judge David Carter recently ordered Trump’s attorney John Eastman—who is accused of conspiring with the former president to overturn the 2020 election results—to hand over more emails to the House Select Committee as part of the investigation into the January 6 attack....

“Donald said recently that there will be ‘big problems’ if he’s indicted and he’s right. There will be big problems for him. I know that he was in his not-too-subtle way, threatening the rest of us with the violence of his insane followers,” she said during an episode of The Mary Trump Show that was posted by Politicon to YouTube on Saturday. “But, you know that’s not going to happen....

While Democrats have long been a focal point of his ire, lawmakers in the GOP could also be a target should he want to deflect responsibility. Though Trump disagrees with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) on specific aspects of a deal, he is willing to spend higher amounts as she desires—insisting he would even top amounts she has requested. However, this has put him on a collision course with the Senate GOP, due to members being against what they deem to be excessive costs....

Trump’s post-presidential website has a section where supporters can request a message from the ex-president and former first lady Melania Trump for a “special occasion.” It’s not uncommon for a former president to give people a way to reach, and you can request a personalized memento from former Presidents Barack Obama, George W. Bush and Bill Clinton. Requesting a message from the Trumps is fairly easy and can be submitted electronically directly from his website....

Trump filed a lawsuit over the August 8 raid of his Florida home on Monday, demanding that the DOJ return items “not within the scope” of the executed search warrant, provide him with a more detailed inventory of the items that were seized and appoint a “special master” before conducting any further review of seized materials. Attorneys for the former president contended that the “illegal” raid was part of a politically motivated attempt to stop Trump from running for president in 2024....

Titled “Trump Third Year Sets New Standard for Party Polarization,” the report was written by senior editor Jeffrey Jones.

Trump referred to a story published by the New York Post on Wednesday claiming that Biden’s son, Hunter, was being paid by Ukrainian energy company Burisma Holdings in order to obtain access to Joe Biden for political reasons. Biden has repeatedly denied these claims. “Just weeks ago, Joe stood before the American people in a presidential debate and told you that these claims had been totally discredited and that his son did nothing wrong,” Trump said....
