It is actually astonishing watching Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass twisting in the wind (the Santa Ana winds, I guess). Just when you think this clueless, calamitous excuse for a "leader" can’t make it any worse, she does. Just look at her execrable performance this week. First she told us her new, expedited timeline for people who lost their homes in the wildfires to be able to rebuild and return: "three years would probably be the fastest, but, probably, it would be more like five." Five years! We built the Golden Gate Bridge from scratch in four.LOS ANGELES MAYOR KAREN BASS SACKS FIRE CHIEF WHO

A federal judge on Friday granted a preliminary injunction over parts of the Trump administration’s executive orders on diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI).The injunction largely blocks the sections of President Donald Trump's orders that seek to end federal support for programs deemed to be DEI-related, and prevents the Trump administration from canceling contracts that they believe promote diversity, equity or inclusion. U.S. District Judge Adam Abelson in Baltimore, a Biden nominee, ruled that parts of the executive orders likely violate the Constitution and free speech."The harm arises from the issuance of it as a public, vague, threatening executive order," Abelson said in

The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday paused the Trump administration's efforts to dismiss the head of an independent agency charged with investigating whistleblower claims as the president seeks to remake the federal government. The decision allows Hampton Dellinger, a Biden appointee, to remain as head of the Office of Special Counsel at least through Feb. 26. The high court kept that deadline in place and won't take any further action until then.The Trump administration asked the court to overturn a lower court's temporary reinstatement of Dellinger. A district court hearing is scheduled to consider whether to extend the pause on Dellinger’s

President Donald Trump has helped a GOP lawmaker and national union leader finally squash their feud after making headlines in 2023 for their verbal spat on the Senate floor, telling each other to "stand" their "butt(s) up," during an argument.  Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., and Teamsters President Sean O’Brien made headlines in November 2023 for their heated argument after the representative confronted the union boss on his critical tweets. Now, the two men say President Trump has brought them together after a phone call. "Even after President Trump and Sean O'Brien sat down and talked, one of the first phone calls he

Democrats have remained notably silent since Kash Patel became the first "person of color" to head the FBI, after previously emphasizing diversity and representation on the campaign trail and during the Biden era. Patel, a fervent Trump ally, underwent a rocky path to confirmation, with Democrats on the panel attempting to delay the vote earlier this month and continuing to protest his nomination into Thursday. Despite the criticism, Democrats have yet to make note of Patel, who is Indian-American, making history as the first "person of color" FBI director.KASH PATEL LAYS OUT FBI'S TOP TWO PRIORITIES IN LETTER TO SUBORDINATESSenate Judiciary Committee
