Biden Gets Confused While Singing “Happy Birthday” to Kid He Invited on Stage

Joe Biden became bewildered after inviting a young man to the stage before singing Happy Birthday to him, at which point he could not remember his name.

During the song’s third verse, “Happy Birthday to -”, Biden apparently had trouble, seeming to forget the person’s name he was singing to.

The President seemed to mumble through that part, hoping nobody would notice.

“Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday to…,” Biden sang into the microphone.

Watch – it’s pretty funny:

The kid appeared to take the gaffe well, laughing it off as Biden’s voice trailed off at the part of the song he didn’t know.

Border Patrol Union President Issues Warning to Democrats Planning to Defy Trump’s Deportation Plans

Border Patrol Union President Paul Perez issued a warning to Democrat-run sanctuary cities that are planning to defy President-Elect Donald Trump‘s deportation efforts.

Perez said those who stand in the way will be ‘dealt with.’

His remarks come just a week after Trump’s “border czar” nominee, Tom Homan, warned Democrats they could face jail time if they disrupted deportation plans.

The message couldn’t be more clear.

The Washington Examiner reported:

National Border Patrol Council President Paul Perez warned Democratic officials against opposing the incoming Trump administration’s planned deportations, as President-elect Donald Trump is hiring “the best legal minds” who would enforce consequences.

Several state officials, including Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA), have been working in the wake of the 2024 election to deter the incoming administration’s deportations of illegal immigrants, prompting Trump “border czar” Tom Homan to warn them to “get out of the way.”

In response to the officials and sanctuary cities intending to work against the Trump administration, Perez argued they need to recognize that “federal law supersedes state law.”

“Anybody that’s going to get in the way is going to be dealt with, and so they need to take this incoming administration at its word because they are going to have some of the best legal minds working in the Department of Justice and the Department of Homeland Security,” Perez said on Fox News’s America Reports, guest-hosted by Griff Jenkins and Julie Banderas.

“So it’s not something that they’re taking lightly. They’re going to do the job.”

Watch:

Last month, Homan highlighted Title 8 to Democrats who believe they would get away with disruption deposition plans.

“I would suggest she read Title 8, United States Code 1324 (iii) that says you can’t harbour or conceal an illegal alien from federal law enforcement.”

“There are certain laws in place that they can’t cross, and I hope she doesn’t cross it,” Homan reiterated.

According to Title 8, United States Code 1324 (iii):

“makes it an offense for any person who — knowing or in reckless disregard of the fact that an alien has come to, entered, or remains in the United States in violation of law — conceals harbors, or shields from detection, or attempts to conceal, harbor, or shield from detection, such alien in any place, including any building or any means of transportation.”

MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace Suggests “Studying MAGA” to Defeat Movement

MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace said that studying MAGA is important to expose “the movement’s vulnerability” and defeat it.

Wallace said:  “I think the study of MAGA is essential to defeat MAGA. Right? And if you want to go to the country in four years with the political movement that defeats MAGA, you have to understand MAGA. And so to me this is a story that is, the personalities in conflict, you just can’t look away, right?”

“But the idea that one figure, and I think it’s Bannon in this case, is trying to preserve something that to him as a MAGA enforcer is, I don’t even know the vocabulary to use, precious, you know, the anti-immigration view has to be pure.”

She continued: “To be against these visas being offered is in direct conflict with Trump’s core promise, which is of a robust economy because what Musk represents is that American businesses feel like they can’t prosper and thrive without access to these visas.”

“Again the study of MAGA to be able to defeat it is understanding where the weak links are this is clearly going to be one of them.”

Wallace added: “It’s like two tarantulas in a bowl.”

“There’s nobody to root for right because you’re watching this like ugly collision where Musk is arguing for his own bottom line, Bannon is arguing for sort of the ideologies at the root of MAGA’s sort of nativist underbelly.”

“But what you have to study I think from the outside is what it exposes about the movement’s vulnerability.”

Poll: Majority of Voters Want the FBI to Investigate Liz Cheney

Over half of American voters want the FBI to investigate former US Rep. Liz Cheney for her role in the committee that investigated the January 6, 2021, Capitol protest.

According to a new Rasmussen poll, 40% of Likely U.S. Voters have a favorable opinion of Cheney, while Forty-two per cent (42%) view the former Wyoming congresswoman unfavorably, and 17% are not sure.

Liz Cheney returned to the headlines this week for her alleged criminal conduct during her time on the January 6 Select Subcommittee.

As we reported, Cheney was caught contacting the star witness and ignoring witnesses who would debunk her false narrative.

The chairman of the House Administration Subcommittee on Oversight, Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA), issued a report alleging Cheney improperly coordinated the star witness in the committee’s investigation of the January 6 Capitol breach.

Loudermilk found that Cheney contacted Cassidy Hutchinson without her attorney’s consent. However, Cheney dismissed the allegations as a political attack designed to undermine the committee’s so-called findings; “January 6 showed Donald Trump for who [he] really is – a cruel and vindictive man who allowed violent attacks to continue against our Capitol and law enforcement officers while he watched television and refused for hours to instruct his supporters to stand down and leave,” she said.

“The January 6th Committee’s hearings and report featured scores of Republican witnesses, including many of the most senior officials from Trump’s own White House, campaign and Administration,” Cheney added.

“Their allegations do not reflect a review of the actual evidence and are a malicious and cowardly assault on the truth. No reputable lawyer, legislator or judge would take this seriously.”

President Trump told NBC’s Kirsten Welker that “everybody” on the Congressional January 6 Committee “should go to jail.”

The news came amid reports that Joe Biden is announcing preemptive pardons for congressional members who lied to the American public about the events surrounding January 6, 2021.

Trump Gave Permission to Elon Musk to Trash GOP Spending Bill on X

President-elect Donald Trump gave Elon Musk the green light to post multiple calls to kill the GOP-brokered spending deal.

“If the speaker acts decisively, and tough, and gets rid of all of the traps being set by the Democrats, which will economically and, in other ways, destroy our country, he will easily remain speaker,” Trump told Fox News Digital.

Trump suggested that Johnson’s proposed continuing resolution was was “unacceptable.”

“We’ll see. What they had yesterday was unacceptable,” Trump told NBC News.

“In many ways it was unacceptable. It’s a Democrat trap.”

ABC News reported that Trump also indicated that he had discussed his views on the bill with social media giant Musk and granted the billionaire permission to trash the government spending bill on his social media platform.

“I told him that if he agrees with me, that he could put out a statement,” Trump said.

Musk then conducted an all-out pressure campaign flooding his platform with dozens of posts threatening members of Congress to block Johnson’s government funding bill.

“Any member of the House or Senate who votes for this outrageous spending bill deserves to be voted out in 2 years!” Musk wrote.

Musk also called on his more than 200 million followers to call their representatives and urge them to block the bill.

“Please call your elected representatives right away to tell them how you feel! They are trying to get this passed today while no one is paying attention.”

Trump’s own statement opposing the measure came hours after Musk put his thoughts on his social media platform.

Trump, too, argued against the bill and threatened to primary Republicans who vote to pass it.

“If Republicans try to pass a clean Continuing Resolution without all of the Democrat “bells and whistles” that will be so destructive to our Country, all it will do, after January 20th, is bring the mess of the Debt Limit into the Trump Administration,” Trump said in a post on Wednesday.

“Any Republican that would be so stupid as to do this should, and will, be Primaried. Everything should be done, and fully negotiated, prior to my taking Office on January 20th, 2025.”

The next morning, Trump shared a similar sentiment with Fox News Digital, saying:

“Anybody that supports a bill that doesn’t take care of the Democrat quicksand known as the debt ceiling should be primaried and disposed of as quickly as possible.”

Gavin Newsom Planning to Help Illegal Migrants Escape Trump’s Deportation Efforts

California Gov. Gavin Newsom‘s administration is now scrambling to implement new plans to aid illegal migrants avoid deportation when President Donald Trump takes office next year.

According to an internal memo within the Newsom administration, the administration proposes the “creation of an Immigrant Support Network comprised of regional ‘hubs’ to connect at-risk individuals, their families, and communities with community systems—such as legal services, schools, labor unions, local governments, etc.”

That’s right, the Newsom is planning to defy the president of the United States and keep criminal illegal aliens in his state.

Watch

The New York Post reports:

A spokesperson for the governor’s office told The Post that the memo appears to be a “preliminary” document drafted at the “department-level” and that it has not been reviewed by Newsom.

“This document is an internal and deliberative draft document meant for internal discussions as part of a number of possible considerations given the incoming federal administration’s public remarks,” Scott Murray, a spokesperson for California’s Department of Social Services — the agency that drafted the memo — told The Post Tuesday.

“It is not a final proposal,” he added.

The Department of Social Services is still gauging interest in the proposed program, according to Politico, and determining when it could be implemented.

If the plan is finalized, it will be announced in mid-January, according to the outlet.

Meanwhile, Newsom convened a special session to secure $25 million to fund potential lawsuits against the incoming Trump administration.

The report follows Newsom convening a special session to secure $25 million to fund potential lawsuits against the incoming Trump administration.

Fox News reports:

The draft is part of an effort by California leaders to prepare for a second Trump administration. After Trump was elected, Newsom called a special legislative session and talked of a $25 million “Trump-proof” legal defence fund.

In addition, state lawmakers were lobbying for additional funds.

Senate Budget Chair Scott Wiener proposed legislation seeking $60 million, including funds to create an immigrant detention representation and coordination program, Politico reported.

Under the draft, the state Social Services Department would give state funds to eligible nonprofits and take on administrative duties for the hubs.

The draft does not indicate how much funding the plan requires. However, it said the funds would go toward “community outreach, partnership, legal services staffing positions, and approved administrative costs associated with hub operations,” the Politico report said.

Trump’s Incoming FCC Chair Issues Warning to Disney CEO

President-elect Donald Trump’s incoming Federal Communications Commission, Brendan Carr, fired off a warning letter to Disney CEO Bob Iger telling him he planned to hold news networks — like the Disney-owned ABC News — accountable.

Carr highlighted in the letter that the American people have largely lost trust in the national media. “Dear Mr. Iger, Americans no longer trust the national news media to report fully, accurately, and fairly,” Carr’s letter began.

He then noted ABC’s recent $15 million settlement with Trump. “ABC’s own conduct has certainly contributed to this erosion in public trust,” Carr wrote.

“For instance, ABC News recently agreed to pay $15 million to President Trump’s future presidential foundation and museum and an additional $1 million in attorney fees to settle a defamation case.”

Anchor George Stephanopoulos, a former Democratic strategist, said on a number of occasions that Trump had been “found liable for rape” in the E. Jean Carroll case.

Stephanopoulos had been warned against using the word “rape” prior to the broadcast, but failed to heed those warnings.

Carr suggested that the company was only deepening the public’s mistrust by prioritizing Disney’s paid streaming services over content that might be made available to more trusted affiliates.

“The fact that a massive trust divide has emerged between local news outlets and national programmers like ABC only increases the importance of retransmission consent revenues remaining available for local broadcast TV stations to invest in their local news operations and content that serves their communities,” he added.

Last week, Disney began rolling back LGBTQ-infused shows after reports the entertainment behemoth scrapped its transgender storyline in Pixar’s forthcoming animated series’ Win or Lose.’

The report was later confirmed by a Disney spokesperson, who helped remove the plotline, citing the preferences of worried parents as the reason for the decision.

“When it comes to animated content for a younger audience, we recognize that many parents would prefer to discuss certain subjects with their children on their own terms and timeline,” the spokesperson said.

Hillary Clinton: Republicans Taking Orders from the “World’s Richest Man” Elon Musk

Twice-failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton claimed that Republicans were “taking orders from the world’s richest man,” Elon Musk, regarding the failed continuing resolution (CR).

Clinton accused Republicans of being “on course to shut down the government over the holidays.”

“If you’re just catching up: the Republican Party, taking orders from the world’s richest man, is on course to shut down the government over the holidays, stopping paychecks for our troops and nutrition benefits for low-income families just in time for Christmas,” Clinton wrote in her post.

Clinton’s remarks came after Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) called for Musk to serve as House Speaker in the wake of growing criticisms regarding House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) reading the CR.

The Speaker of the House need not be a member of Congress . . .” Sen. Paul began.

“Nothing would disrupt the swamp more than electing Elon Musk.”

“Think about it . . . nothing’s impossible. (not to mention the joy at seeing the collective establishment, aka ‘uniparty,’ lose their ever-lovin’ minds),” the post concluded.

Musk placed tremendous pressure on Republican House leadership to scrap Wednesday’s spending measure in a series of X posts.

“The Speaker did a good job here, given the circumstances,” Musk wrote in one post on X, regarding the news that Johnson was “rolling” out a “third plan to keep the government” from heading toward a shutdown.

“It went from a bill that weighed pounds to a bill that weighed ounces. Ball should now be in the Dem court.”

Trump Promises “Largest Tax Cuts” in U.S. History by Next Year

President-elect Donald Trump vowed to “deliver the largest tax cuts in the history of our country” as he hailed Sunday as “the 7th Anniversary of the Trump Tax Cuts becoming Law.”

“Today is the 7th Anniversary of the Trump Tax Cuts becoming Law,” Trump wrote in a Sunday morning Truth Social post before he was slated to speak at a salute to Arizona gathering for Turning Point Action, “‘Happy Birthday!’

“Next year, we will deliver the largest Tax Cuts in the History of our Country,” he added.

“MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”

Many of the provisions of the Tax Cut and Jobs Act signed by Trump in 2017 are scheduled to expire at the end of next year.

This means that more than $4 trillion in tax increases will take effect Jan. 1, 2026, charging next year’s Congress and administration with the hefty task of grappling with the tax hikes.

Many of the provisions impacting businesses, including pass-through entities, are set to expire between 2025 and 2028.

According to Americans for Tax Reform’s Grover Norquist, the expiration of the cuts has the markets sinking as Congress is speaking out against extending the Trump tax cuts next year.

“I think one of the dangers that people are looking at is that the tax cut may be delayed; it may get stopped,” Norquist said.

“We’re one bad car accident away from having Democrat control of the House of Representatives, which means a $4 trillion tax increase.”

“That’s a lot of uncertainty.”

Earlier this year, Trump suggested abolishing the federal income tax for American families.

During a visit to a barbershop in the Bronx, Trump was asked if there was “a way to eliminate federal taxes.”

Citing the policies of the late 1800s, when income tax funds were replaced by new trade tariffs, the former president hinted the country could go back to a time “when we were a smart country” and “relatively the richest it ever was.”

“It had all tariffs — it didn’t have an income tax,” said Trump.

Now we have income taxes, and we have people that are dying.”

“They’re paying tax, and they don’t have the money to pay the tax,” he added.

Trump saidsaid America was becoming so rich during the 1890s that “we had to set up committees, blue ribbon committees (on) how to spend our wealth—we had no idea how to spend it; there was so much money.”

“Then we went to the income tax system and the rest is sort of history,” said Trump.
