New York Magazine writer Brock Colyar warned that a new generation of “casually cruel Trumpers” are “conquering Washington.” Colyar wrote an extensive report, “The Cruel Kids’ Table” about what it was like socializing with a new generation of young Republicans on the first night of President Donald Trump’s new presidency. “They are drinking, smoking, flirting, networking, but mostly congratulating one another on their big win,” Colyar wrote. However, conservative influencers argued that the liberal magazine made some glaring omissions. American Conservation Coalition president Christopher Barnard condemned the cover of the latest issue, claiming, “New York Magazine literally cropped all the…

Our rule around illegal immigration accounting is simply that,” Walters said. “It…

Acosta announced his departure Tuesday at the end of his one-hour morning show on the network, telling viewers: “Don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to the fear.” He didn’t specifically tie those sentiments to Trump, but the implication was clear. CNN says its decision to move Acosta out of the daylight and into a time slot to begin at midnight Eastern time had nothing to…

Then the home construction contractor watched how the billionaire president opened his second administration. “So, the rich control the poor, I guess. They do whatever they want. They get away with it,” Lopez said after seeing Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, and other tech moguls, notably Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg and Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, at Trump’s limited-seating, indoor inauguration. The 56-year-old Lopez, a resident of the Phoenix exurb of Apache Junction, said he was also struck by…
