‘War on coal is finally over’: Energy experts say Trump admin’s deregulation agenda could fuel coal’s revival

By Audrey Streb | Daily Caller Within the first months of his second administration, President Donald Trump has prioritized “unleashing” American energy and has already axed several of what he considers to be burdensome regulations on the coal industry, promising it’s “reinvigoration.” Trump signed an executive order on April 8 to revive the coal industry, and shortly after moved to exempt several coal plants from Biden-era regulations. Though it has become a primary target of many climate activists, coal has been historically regarded as readily available and affordable, and several energy policy experts who spoke with Daily Caller News Foundation believe Trump has the cards necessary to strengthen the industry. “When utility bills are skyrocketing or blackouts are happening in w...

Trump admin releases RFK assassination files

By Eireann Van Natta | Daily Caller Over 10,000 pages of previously classified documents were uploaded to the National Archives on Friday morning. “In the course of searching FBI and CIA warehouses for records not previously turned over to The National Archives, an additional 50,000 pages of RFK assassination files were discovered,” the press released added. RFK was assassinated by Sirhan Sirhan, a Palestinian refugee, Reuters reported. The former senator was shot soon after he won the 1968 California Democratic presidential primary, and he died the following day, the outlet said. “Lifting the veil on the RFK papers is a necessary step toward restoring trust in American government,” Health and Human Services (HHS) secretary and RFK’s son, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., stated ...

Senators demand Obama-Era inspector general’s cooperation in probe of J6 undercover agents

By Beth Brelje | The Federalist Two prominent senators sent a letter this week to Inspector General Michael Horowitz, pressing him to fully cooperate with their investigation of undercover “confidential human sources” in the crowd at the U.S. Capitol building on Jan. 6, 2021. Horowitz, who was appointed by former President Barack Obama in 2012, has failed to respond to requests for information about confidential human sources on Jan. 6, according to Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., chairman of the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, and Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. They sent Horowitz a letter on Dec. 16, seeking more information about his Dec. 12 report on how the FBI handled its confidential human sources in advance of J6. ...

Trump vows ‘there will be a trade deal, 100%’ with Europe as Italy PM Georgia Meloni visits White House

By Diana Glebova | New York Post President Trump expressed optimism Thursday that the US and European Union can reach a trade deal as he welcomed Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni to the White House. Meloni, 48, was the first European leader to meet with Trump, 78, since he announced last week that his “Liberation Day” suite of reciprocal tariffs would be paused for 90 days. “I’m sure we can make a deal, and I am here to help with that,” Meloni, dressed in all white, told Trump ahead of lunch in the Cabinet Room. “I cannot lock this deal in the name of the European Union,” she added. “My goal would be to invite President Trump to pay an official visit to Italy and understand if there’s a possibility when it comes to organize also such a meeting with...

Trump will walk away from Ukraine talks in days if Moscow and Kyiv aren’t serious about peace, warns Rubio

By Oliver JJ Lane | Breitbart The United States will do whatever it takes to get peace in Ukraine as long as “either side or both” actually engage in the process, but as things stand now America will “move on” within days if there are no signs of progress. Neither Ukraine or Russia are engaging in the peace process properly, Secretary of State Marco Rubio suggested on Friday morning as he boarded his flight back to the U.S., saying if there isn’t a breakthrough in the peace process within days the United States would disengage. The United States is not willing to attend endless unproductive meetings, and meetings for the sake of having meetings, Rubio told press on the tarmac in barely-veiled criticism of both Moscow and Kyiv. He said: “We came here yesterday to begin to talk abou...

Angel moms torch Maryland Sen. Chris Van Hollen for visiting El Salvador for illegal alien after ignoring their daughters’ murders in Maryland

By John Binder | Breitbart Angel Moms Patty Morin and Tammy Nobles are ripping Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) for traveling to El Salvador in an attempt to visit a deported illegal alien, accused of MS-13 gang membership and domestic violence, after ignoring the murders of their daughters in Maryland — 37-year-old Rachel Morin and 20-year-old Kayla Hamilton — both at the hands of illegal aliens. This week, Van Hollen traveled to El Salvador in the hopes of visiting 29-year-old Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an illegal alien who crossed the United States-Mexico border in 2011 and has since been accused of being an MS-13 gang member, domestic violence, and human trafficking. Van Hollen and other Democrats are demanding that El Salvador officials fly Abrego Garcia back to th...

Rubio announces closure of State Department effort that ‘was supposed to be dead already’

By Alex Nitzberg | Fox News Secretary of State Marco Rubio has announced the closure of a State Department effort that he accused of spending millions on censorship. "I am announcing the closure of the State Department’s Counter Foreign Information Manipulation and Interference (R/FIMI), formerly known as the Global Engagement Center (GEC)," Rubio said in a statement issued on Wednesday. "Under the previous administration, this office, which cost taxpayers more than $50 million per year, spent millions of dollars to actively silence and censor the voices of Americans they were supposed to be serving," Rubio asserted.

Yale Study shows Young people ages 18-21 are now overwhelmingly Republican

By Newsweek Young Americans are supporting the Republican Party in greater numbers, a new poll has found, highlighting a large divide among people aged under 30. According to a new Yale Youth Poll, a survey affiliated with the Yale Institution for Social and Political Studies, voters aged 18 to 21 lean Republican by 11.7 points when asked who they would support in the 2026 Congressional elections, while voters aged 22 to 29 favored Democrats by 6.4 points. Why it matters Young people traditionally vote for Democrats in elections, but a conservative shift among Gen Z voters helped President Donald Trump secure the keys to the White House in November 2024. If this trend is sustained, partisan realignment could hamper the Democrat's chance of success in future elections ...

CHSAA pressed by over 68 school leaders to follow federal guidance on girls’ sports

By Sherrie Peif | Complete Colorado DENVER — A letter signed by some 60 school district administrators and school board members from across the state is calling on the Colorado High School Activities Association to come into compliance with a recent Trump administration order around biological boys competing in girls’ sports. “The Colorado High School Activities Association (CHSAA) must immediately adopt rules and practices to ensure that boys are not permitted to compete as girls in girls’ sports,” the letter reads in part. “This action is not only a matter of safety and fairness for our female athletes, but also aligns with recent federal directives that reinforce the protection of women’s sports under Title IX.” Names on the letter include board members who  have prev...

Biden stumbles through first post-Trump speech

By Nathan Gay | Daily Wire Former President Joe Biden broke his three-month silence Tuesday evening, addressing Social Security in his first public speech since President Trump took office. Biden addressed a gathering of advocates for disabled people in Chicago, accusing Trump and Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency of trying to “dismantle” Social Security. Biden, already 30 minutes late, was off to a rough start as the former president appeared to begin reading off the teleprompter while the walkout music was still playing, seemingly oblivious to the fact that he was inaudible to the audience.
