Forecast Shows Home Prices Falling in Much of the South and West in 2026

By Mary Cunningham | CBS News It's still a tough time to get a foothold in the housing market, with homes sitting near record values and mortgage rates parked well above 6%. But the tide could turn in 2026, with property prices forecast to dip in 22 of the largest 100 U.S. cities and mortgage rates expected to ease slightly, according to a new analysis from Realtor.com. The real estate market is expected to move in a more "buyer-friendly" direction next year, leading to the "most balanced housing market" since the pandemic, meaning that neither sellers nor buyers are likely to have the upper hand in negotiations, said Jake Krimmel, a senior economist at Realtor.com. Mortgage rates are expected to dip to an average of 6.3% next year, a slight drop from 2025's ...

Justices Take Key Immigration Case on Trump Order Limiting Birthright Citizenship

By Jack Birle | The Washington Examiner The Supreme Court announced Friday that it will hear arguments in a case challenging President Donald Trump‘s executive order on birthright citizenship later this term. In an order released Friday afternoon, the justices said they would take up for review Trump v. Barbara, a case originally brought in a federal court in New Hampshire by a group of people whose children could be affected by the order. The Justice Department filed petitions to the high court to hear the Barbara case and Trump v. Washington, a challenge brought by Democrat-led states, in September, arguing the justices should rule on the legality of the order. “The government has a compelling interest in en...

Fake Identities Still Approved for Obamacare Subsidies, Watchdog Warns of Systemic Failures

By Nicholas Ballasy | Just the News "We were able to get subsidized insurance for fake enrollees. We also found some issues with enrollees' Social Security numbers that could indicate identity fraud. The program's fraud risks were last assessed in 2018, even though the program and its risks have since evolved,” the GAO reported A newly released report from the Government Accountability Office reveals that “fraud risks in the advance premium tax credit (APTC) persist,” despite earlier warnings and reforms.  The APTC is a “subsidy that the government pays to insurance companies to make premiums more affordable for eligible Americans under the Affordable Care Act.” CMS paid nearly $124 billion in APTC in 2024 alone, covering about 19.5 million enrolle...

Tina Peters Requests Presidential Pardon as New Evidence Bolsters Her Claims

By A.L. Goodwin | Guest Contributor, Rocky Mountain Voice On December 6, 2025, former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters formally submitted an application for a Presidential Pardon to President Donald J. Trump. Her legal team describes the request as both a matter of justice and national security, pointing to newly released evidence and expanding federal investigations that directly corroborate Peters’ original claims. Attorney John Case, who represents Peters, summarized the urgency: “The President has authority under the U.S. Constitution to pardon Tina Peters. Colorado officials continue to persecute Tina in state prison, where her health has deteriorated. The courts refuse to allow Tina release on bond while the Colorado Court of Appeals considers her appeal. So, Tina h...

Behind closed doors: Gender doctors admit they are ‘winging it’ with minors

By Leor Sapir | The Free Press In footage obtained exclusively by The Free Press, gender doctors acknowledge they perform life-altering procedures on vulnerable youth with no supportive evidence—and they are proud of it. At their conferences, closed to outsiders and the press, the gender clinicians allowed themselves to speak freely. They spoke about the boys who said they wanted to be girls and the girls who felt they were meant to be boys, and the medical and surgical interventions that would make them appear as the opposite sex. The clinicians also discussed new procedures for a new type of patient—some of them adolescents—who wanted to be made to look as if they had no sex at all. In one of the videos, obtained exclusively by The Free Press, from the 2021 conf...

Media Frenzy Over Hegseth Exposed as Another Political Operation

By: M.D. Kittle | Commentary, The Federalist ‘And for their next act? – They want him tried for war crimes …They intend to prosecute another political opponent,’ said Sen. Schmitt. Garbage in, garbage out.  GIGO, as computer geeks commonly call it, is the principle that if a system receives inadequate or bad data, the results will surely be flawed.  Same goes with news reporting.  The garbage leaks that went into the Washington Post’s latest “Get Trump” hoax was so bad that even the Trump Derangement Syndrome-suffering New York Times could smell the stink. As my colleague Brianna Lyman wrote this week, the Post’s Alex Horton and Ellen Nakashima claimed Secretary of War Pete Hegseth “gave a spoken directive” to...

Family of Alleged DNC RNC Bomber Pushed DOJ for Racism Probe While Fighting Trump in Court

By: Luke Rosiak | The Daily Wire The father of Brian Cole, a bail bondsman for illegal immigrants, hired Trayvon Martin’s attorney in 2021. Brian Cole, Jr. worked for a bail bonds company run by his father that worked to free illegal immigrants from ICE facilities and sued the Trump administration’s Department of Homeland Security. Weeks before 30-year-old Cole Jr. allegedly planted pipe bombs at the headquarters of the Democrat and Republican parties on January 5, 2021, a court ruled against the company in its lawsuit attacking the Trump administration on immigration issues, The Daily Wire has learned. An FBI affidavit in the case notes that the suspect works for a bail bond company and lives with his mother. Later in 2021, the company held a press conf...

Liberty Vote’s Big Buy: What It Means for Colorado Voters and Why Questions Remain

By Colorado Institute for Fair Elections | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice Imagine this: You're heading to your local polling place in Colorado, ready to cast your vote on a crisp November morning. You scan your ID at a digital check-in station, mark your paper ballot, and feed it into a machine that tallies it up. Sounds straightforward, right? But behind the scenes, the company running much of that tech—Dominion Voting Systems—just got bought out and rebranded as Liberty Vote. For everyday folks like you and me, this could affect how secure and trustworthy our elections feel.  Announced on October 9, 2025, the deal promises a fresh, all-American start. But as we unpack it, some red flags pop up that make you wonder: Is this real change, or just a shiny ne...

Good News or Fake News: Hope — Waiting for the Real News

By Drake Hunter | Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice When you look for hope, peace, joy, and love in your relationships and reality during this Advent Season, what source is shaping who you are—the Good News or the fake news? Across Colorado, the nation, and around the world, people start their day scrolling through headlines, alerts, predictions, and debates. The news cycle never stops. It rarely offers hope. But here’s a question at the start of this Advent season: How much of what influences you every day is genuine good news, and how much is cleverly disguised fake news? And here’s a more personal take: When you seek direction, identity, and meaning… are you following the real Jesus—or a version filtered and edited by the loudest voices of our time? Advent isn’t just...
