Daniel Penny seeks dismissal of civil lawsuit filed by Jordan Neely’s father

By Ashe Schow | Daily Wire Daniel Penny, who was acquitted of causing the death of Jordan Neely on a New York City subway, is seeking the dismissal of a civil lawsuit filed by Neely’s father. Andre Zachery filed a lawsuit against Penny in December, shortly before a jury found Penny not guilty of criminally negligent homicide, demanding “judgment awarding damages in a sum which exceeds the jurisdictional limits of all lower Courts which would otherwise have jurisdiction.” Penny’s attorneys are seeking to get that lawsuit dismissed, Fox News reported. Zachery, who was not a part of Neely’s life, alleged that Penny caused the death of his son and should pay him for it. READ THE FULL STORY AT THE DAILY WIRE

Map reveals house-by-house devastation of deadly LA fires with entire neighborhoods nearly wiped out

By Patrick Reilly | New York Post Shocking new maps show the utter destruction wrought by the deadly Palisades and Eaton fires in Los Angeles, offering a house-by-house view of impacted neighborhoods – some of which were nearly leveled completely. The two largest wildfires in the L.A. area have destroyed more than 12,000 structures and killed at least 24 people — and are expected to grow again this week as strong winds fuel the flames. An aerial view of the areas devastated by the Palisades Fire, which has torched over 23,000 acres and killed at least eight people since Tuesday, shows entire neighborhoods in some of City of Angel’s most exclusive zip codes burned to the ground near the Pacific Ocean.

He’s not liberal or conservative. He’s just a commonsense person, which is beautiful,” Trump added. READ THE FULL STORY AT THE NATIONAL REVIEW

White: Here are Trump’s options for dealing with an imminent nuclear threat that’s festered under Biden

By Wallace White | Commentary, Daily Caller Iran has largely been left unchecked by the Biden administration in its goal to become a nuclear power, presenting President-elect Donald Trump with a significant foreign policy challenge that has few easy solutions. Iran, with its current stockpiles, can make a nuclear weapon with 60% enriched uranium in just one week, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said in a November bulletin. The president-elect will have to choose a path quickly upon assuming office, such as renegotiating a deal to halt or slow Iran’s progress, military intervention or re-tooling sanctions that have so far been ineffective. “The United States needs another Middle East war like it needs a hole in the head,” Justin Logan, director of defense and foreign ...

Garland seeks to trample Americans’ due process rights to get Trump

By Margot Cleveland | The Federalist The release of the special counsel report by the attorney general would severely prejudice the due process rights of the individuals identified in that report, a brief filed late Saturday in a Florida federal court argued. All eyes now rest on Judge Aileen Cannon’s docket to see how she responds to this weekend’s bombshell filing. The flurry of court filings began exactly one week ago when Waltine Nauta and Carlos De Oliveira filed two emergency motions to enjoin the release of the special counsel’s report. Special Counsel Jack Smith had indicted Nauta, De Oliveira, and Trump in the Southern District of Florida for alleged crimes related to Trump’s retention of classified documents.  Last year, presiding judge Aileen Cannon dismissed the charge...

Biden admin would ‘scream’ and ‘curse’ at his employees, demanding censorship, Zuck tells Rogan

By Alexander Hall  | Fox News Meta CEO founder Mark Zuckerberg told podcaster Joe Rogan that members of President Biden's administration yelled at his employees, demanding they take down content on their behalf.
