MTG to Chair DOGE Subcommittee to Work with Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy

By Bradley Jaye | Breitbart Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) will chair the subcommittee tasked with working with Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to slash wasteful spending throughout the federal government. House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) will create the new Delivering on Government Efficiency (DOGE) subcommittee and tap Greene to lead it in January, Fox News Digital reported Thursday. Musk and Ramaswamy were tasked by Trump to lead DOGE to displace the power of the federal bureaucracy and return it to the “people we elect [to] run the government,” Musk and Ramaswamy outlined Wednesday in a Wall Street Journal op-ed. The DOGE subcommittee is likely to be the conduit for House investigations to aid the department’s work. READ ...

U.S. closes Kyiv embassy over ‘significant air attack’ intelligence

By Oliver JJ Lane | Breitbart The U.S. embassy in Ukraine cited “specific information of a potential significant air attack” on Wednesday morning, ordering its citizens in the country to shelter in place, as tensions between America and the Russian Federation rise ever higher. The American embassy compound in western Kyiv was closed on Wednesday morning, with a convoy of diplomatic vehicles apparently evacuating the buildings. A message posted by the embassy staff stated it had received “specific information of a potential significant air attack” that was thought to be planned for Wednesday. The closure was out of an “abundance of caution”, they said, but nevertheless embassy staff were told to shelter in place and American citizens in Ukraine told to be prepared to take shelter. ...

Peter Thiel: Migration spikes housing costs, impoverishes young people

By Neil Munro | Breitbart Migration is helping to wreck the nation’s housing market and impose huge costs on young Americans, investor Peter Thiel told the Free Press news site. “The way I model what’s happened in the U.S., in Britain, Canada, a lot of the Anglosphere countries is a … real estate catastrophe,” said Thiel, a billionaire who made his fortune in Silicon Valley by creating Paypal and other Internet-based companies. Even small migration inflows can cause large increases in housing costs, especially in districts where there is little construction, Thiel said, adding: READ THE FULL STORY AT BREITBART

Lame-duck Biden-Harris admin sanctions Israelis, sends $230M to Palestinians

By Joel B. Pollak | Breitbart The lame-duck Biden-Harris administration is slapping new sanctions on Israelis, while sending nearly a quarter of a billion dollars in additional funding to the Palestinians, adding insult to injury in the closing weeks of its failed policy. The Washington Free Beacon noted Monday: The Biden-Harris administration on Monday unveiled sweeping new sanctions on Israeli Jews, just days after it awarded another $230 million in taxpayer funds to the Palestinians. The back-to-back announcements signal that diplomatic relations between Israel and the outgoing White House will continue to sour until President-elect Donald Trump retakes office next year.

Kremlin warns ‘inevitable escalation’ over Biden allegedly authorizing Ukraine long-range missile strikes

By Oliver JJ Lane | Breitbart The United States allowing its long-range tactical missiles to strike targets deep inside Russia for the first time would “inevitably lead to a serious escalation”, Kremlin figures warn after Washington D.C. appears to brief one of President Biden’s final acts in office will be to permit such attacks. Russia warned of dire consequences if Ukraine used long-range U.S.-made ATACMS missiles to strike strategic targets deep inside the Federation, but also confidence it would be able to foil the attacks in the first place. The responses came after claims were published in the beltway-interest newspapers favoured for leaks by the U.S. intelligence community at the weekend that U.S. President Joe Biden would permit Ukraine to use the American Army Tactical Miss...

FCC’s Brendan Carr: big tech must dismantle ‘censorship cartel’ including ‘Orwellian’ newsGuard

By Sean Moran | Breitbart Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Brendan Carr on Friday called on big tech platforms to dismantle the “censorship cartel,” charging that American democracy depends on it. Carr states that the tech Masters of the Universe, in conjunction with “the orwellian-named NewsGuard,” fact checking groups, and ad agencies, have enforced “one-sided narratives.” “Facebook, Google, Apple, Microsoft & others have played central roles in the censorship cartel. The Orwellian named NewsGuard along with “fact checking” groups & ad agencies helped enforce one-sided narratives. The censorship cartel must be dismantled,” Carr wrote on X/Twitter. Carr wrote to Google CEO Sundar Pichai, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, and Apple CEO Tim Cook ...

Rand Paul introduces healthcare freedom legislation

By Sean Moran | Breitbart Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) introduced legislation Thursday aimed at increasing healthcare access and giving Americans more alternatives to Obamacare and employer-sponsored health insurance. “As Americans’ health care costs continue to rise, my plan puts more power in the people’s hands, getting rid of unnecessary restrictions, expanding access, and trusting Americans to make the decisions that are best for them,” Paul, an ophthalmologist, said in a written statement. Paul, who will become the chairman of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee at the beginning of the next congressional term, introduced the Health Marketplace for All Act of 2024 and the Health Savings Accounts for All Act.

Ballot chasing operations led by Turning Point Action made difference in 2024 election

By Matthew Boyle | Breitbart Turning Point Action’s plans to chase ballots in key swing states seem to have made the difference in helping put former President Donald Trump, now again the President-elect, over the top in his comeback bid for the White House. Charlie Kirk, Turning Point’s top activist, announced on social media in the aftermath of the election the numbers of ballots the organization chased in key battleground states of Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Nevada, helping contribute to flipping each state. While many in media scoffed at outside groups’ efforts to handle most of the ground game efforts for Republicans, Breitbart News regularly covered Turning Point Action’s efforts in in-depth pieces throughout the year.

Speaker Johnson orders entire Biden team to preserve and retain records, documents

By Matthew Boyle | Breitbart House Speaker Mike Johnson on Tuesday ordered the entire administration of President Joe Biden to preserve all records and communications in the waning days of the outgoing Democrat administration as former President Donald Trump’s team prepares to take over. Johnson, Breitbart News has learned exclusively, has sent letters to all 18 federal Departments ordering them to retain and preserve documents. This could become an explosive storyline if outgoing Biden administration officials attempt to delete or destroy documents that shed light on some of the radical policies they pursued or scandals with regard to censorship or other major storylines of the past four years, such as the deadly withdrawal from Afghanistan or the wide open border. If anyone is caug...

Donald Trump Picks Tom Homan to Oversee Border Security, Deportations

By Neil Munro | Breitbart Border hawk Thomas Homan is getting a prize border security job in the new administration, incoming President Donald Trump said in a message via his Truth Social media network. Homan is an experienced border officer who served as acting chief of the vital Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency in 2017 and 2018. The agency is responsible for finding, arresting, and deporting illegal migrants. Homan strongly supported Trump during the 2024 election. However, the statement did not say Homan would be nominated to run the Department of Homeland Security or the ICE agency. If nominated and confirmed by the Senate for either job, he would have the funding, personnel, and legal authority to deport many illegal migrants. READ THE FULL STORY AT BREITBART
