Federal freeze targets childcare money in Colorado and four other states

By Emily Peck | Axios The Trump administration says it is freezing $10 billion in funds for child care and poor families in five blue states, the Office of Management and Budget confirmed to Axios Monday. Why it matters: The White House is pointing to reports of social services fraud in Minnesota to threaten funding for child care around the country. Child care providers are bracing for a slowdown in funds and the possibility of cuts that threaten their ability to operate. That could create wider issues, as millions of parents rely on child care to get to their jobs. Where it stands: Funds are being suspended for California, Colorado, Illinois, Minnesota and New York, according to the New York Post, which earlier reported the news. The h...

HHS Overhauls Vaccine Recommendations While CDC COVID Messaging Remains

By Greg Piper | Just the News Scientific assessment for reducing recommended vaccine doses by two-thirds blasted "false CDC claims that vaccine-acquired immunity was superior to infection-acquired immunity," but CDC is still discouraging natural immunity. Seven weeks before the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reduced the number of vaccines recommended for all children to 11 from 17, citing a new scientific assessment of immunization practices in "peer, developed countries" commissioned by President Trump, the agency updated its page on "Staying Up to Date with COVID-19 Vaccines." The Trump administration did not remove or revise its predecessor's stunningly broad claim: "Getting a COVID-19 vaccine is a safer, more reliabl...

New York’s Collectivist Experiment: A Cautionary Tale for Colorado Too

By Shaina Cole | Contributing Writer, Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice In his inaugural remarks, Mayor Zohran Mamdani said New York should “replace the frigidity of rugged individualism with the warmth of collectivism.”  https://twitter.com/FoxNews/status/2006823362182394125?s=20 It sounded philosophical. For many residents listening, though, it also sounded practical—a signal that the city was preparing to step in more forcefully as everyday costs continued to rise. This shift, driven by mounting financial pressures on families, risks long-term trade-offs in housing supply, job growth, public services, and safety—are issues explored below. The appeal of collectivism in a city like New York does not begin with theory. It begins with pressure. ...

Economists Miss Again as Trump Economy Defies Gloomy Forecasts

By Stephen Moore | Commentary, Fox News Professional forecasters underestimated GDP growth by nearly 50% as third quarter hits 4.3% despite predictions of economic slowdown. Well, Donald Trump has done it again! He stumped the chumps. The "chumps" in this case were the "blue-chip" academic and financial economists whose consensus forecast this time last year predicted high inflation and low economic growth. They were wrong on both counts. As you've probably heard, GDP growth for the third quarter came in at a red-hot 4.3%, following 3.5% for the second quarter. Some 90% of professional economists got it wrong — all underestimating the strength of the Trump economy. QED: These weren't random errors. These were "hate Trump" errors. They also...

By Natalia Mittelstadt | Just the News Five years after the 2020 presidential election, GOP-led Georgia is still facing repercussions from Fulton County’s issues, as the state is also under scrutiny by the Justice Department for voter roll maintenance. Georgia continues to face election integrity issues as more information regarding the 2020 election has come to light, while the state pushes back against federal oversight.

How socialist activist networks mobilized nationwide protests within hours of Maduro capture

By Asra Q. Nomani | Fox News As the U.S. military carried out a daring operation to capture Venezuela's Nicolás Maduro, a second front opened up within minutes in the United States  an information warfare, psychological and propaganda operation run by a hardened cell of self-described Marxist, socialist and communist leaders. For years, this cell has fomented anti-American hate in the U.S. under the cover of "anti-war" protests, rallying activists after the 9/11 attacks to condemn the U.S. response, appropriating "anti-racism" protests after the 2020 killing of George Floyd, marching with Antifa agitators, organizing antisemitic campus encampments after the Oct. 7, 2023, attack on Israel by Hamas and activating "working-class Americans" to support Maduro and his regime i...

Before his fall from power, two decades of U.S. documents detail Maduro’s criminal conduct

By John Solomon | Just the News Maduro's 2020 indictment laid out evidence of how Venezuela's dictator ran a brutal drug cartel that addicted and poisoned Americans. The daring U.S. military operation that captured Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro on Saturday immediately launched Democrats and some U.S. enemies such as Iran and Cuba into a tirade, suggesting that the arrest of an indicted world leader was somehow illegal and that one of the Western hemisphere's most brutal leaders deserved sympathy. But two decades of U.S. documents produced under Democrat and Republican presidents and reviewed by Just the News chronicle Maduro's thuggish, illegal and lethal behavior toward the United States as well as his alliances with enemies like drug-trafficking leftis...
