A Tomb Guard from the U.S. Army’s 3rd Infantry Regiment, “The Old Guard” was forced to verbally reprimand Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and a group of his senior advisers Wednesday after some in the group laughed and loudly talked in front of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington.
Video of the incident, posted by CNN, shows Hegseth standing and taking photos in front of the tomb with his wife, Jennifer, chief of staff Ricky Buria, deputy chief of staff Patrick Weaver as well as senior adviser and deputy assistant Tami Radabaugh, following a ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery for Veterans Day.

The midterms did not prove the system worked. They did not show that the institutions held.
"Let me ask you: You’re on a plane and one of the engines explodes. The plane makes an emergency landing. Is the lesson, “We landed, so the plane works”?"

Max is absolutely right. this is woke culture war nonsense. Appointing a gay person as your chief of staff is an unconscionable offense. Trump would never do that. He'd just make them secretary of the Treasury.
It did not take long for @RobSandIA to betray his campaign promise that he won’t do culture war stuff. This is his new chief of staff.
House Dems tell the Trump administration and businesses that bent the knee to not delete docs. The Trump administration deletes docs, per whistleblower.
If you have docs or if you are being told to change your doc retention practices LET US KNOW. It's important. And we have a secure tips line here

GOP Rep. Lauren Boebert will lose reelection to Democrat Eileen Laubacher in Colorado, CNN projects cnn.com/2026/11/09/politics/…
a telling sign of the two parties is that Dems are currently still in a tug of war between folks who want to moderate and those who don't and Republicans, as far as I can tell, are all in on purified MAGA right now. You'd think the election went in the other direction judging by the collective inflection
in a famous 2018 meeting with Dems, Trump specifically floated doing DACA. Said he would sign it right then and there. Feinstein was floored. McCarthy was appalled. Now Mullin is saying this could be on the table.
DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin says there will be no "amnesty."
BUT, he says Congress "can look at DACA and figure out a way that these individuals can become maybe legal permanent citizens or something like this."

The Dems election fraud was particularly devious this cycle. They didn't just get GOP run states like Texas, Ohio and Iowa to allow the fraud, they strategically left themselves painfully short in Louisiana and Florida to cover their tracks just enough to have deniability.
NEW: Dems aren't backing off their redistricting push. VA, Maryland, Wisconsin, potentially Illinois all possibilities. some of this will depend on what GOP states do, too. w/ @JoePerticone
