Karoline Leavitt attacked Nicolle Wallace of MSNBC for remarks that connected a teenage cancer survivor to the Capitol riot on January 6. Donald Trump named 13-year-old Devarjaye “DJ” Daniel, who was diagnosed with brain cancer in 2018, an honorary Secret Service agent during his Tuesday night speech before Congress. But the president’s actions were swiftly criticized after Wallace, 53, made a string of deplorable comments that turned the nice gesture into a negative. The MSNBC host started off by saying, “I hope he lives the life he wants to live and that he lives for another 95 years.” Before turning…

I never thought I’d reveal a family secret. However, when someone crosses a line—especially with someone you love—you understand you must respond. Hard. Start date: Tuesday. My phone rang when I was working from home and half-listening to a spreadsheet. Grandmother Carol. Her voice trembled before she whispered my name. Hey Joyce, darling… Where is my jewelry? I first didn’t get it. Grandma, what do you mean? “Everything—my wedding ring, mother’s pearls, grandfather’s anniversary bracelet… They left. All gone.” I paused breathing. Not forgetful, Grandma. A magnificent vintage wooden jewelry box held all her treasures. You didn’t touch it until…
Always just me and Malik. No support, no village to call. We survived each day with wounded knees, empty cupboards, and murmured prayers into soiled pillowcases. I had 22-year-old Malik. His father fled before I could say “pregnant.” I held that small kid in my shaky arms, terrified. He seemed little, and I felt unprepared. Thirteen years passed. I still don’t understand. I sleep exhausted from serving tables and cleaning offices and smell like bleach and fried food. Malik grew up in the pandemonium. I watch him shrinking and fighting the earth beneath his weight. He smashes doors, speaks back,…
I watched them load Ricky into the squad vehicle from the porch. He wouldn’t look at me no matter how many times I yelled his name since his wrists were tied and his head was down. The child is good. Good yet stubborn like his father. He made mistakes—what fifteen-year-old doesn’t? I knew he wasn’t a criminal instinctively. The tall, late-30s cop with weary eyes hardly looked at me as he closed the door. “He’ll be booked downtown, ma’am,” he added. “You’ll see him soon.” Suddenly, they drove away. After then, the home was too quiet. I waited in the…
As a manager for over six years, I always believed I was fair. Maybe strict, but fair. If I make exceptions for one individual, where does it end? When I dismissed Celia last week, I told myself that. She was late again—third time this month. Our rule is three strikes, out. She scarcely spoke when I summoned her into my office. Just nodded, got her luggage, and departed without arguing. It should have been the first hint of trouble. I noticed two coworkers whispering later that day. One asked, “Did you hear about Celia’s son?” “Yes,” groaned the other. “Poor…
The lunch break was meant to be brief. A child approached the police as they ate half-burgers and fries at their table. He wasn’t afraid. He wasn’t bashful. He raised his foot and said, “Can you help me?” As he tied the boy’s untangled shoelaces, an officer laughed and nodded. As the other cops smiled, he gently tightened the knot. It was a simple, innocent moment that most wouldn’t consider. And then— Restaurant doors slammed. Man ran inside, pallid face, shaky voice yelling— Someone stole my kid! Please! She left!” In a second, the cop rose and grabbed his radio.…
The knock came while I was home alone. I don’t remember answering the door, but the cop had this expression that told me my life was going to change forever. Dear Son, I apologize…” I heard only that before his words faded. My parents Riley and Emily died in a motorbike accident. A intoxicated driver. Suddenly, they left. I don’t know how long I stared at the floor. My body felt numb, like I wasn’t there. My graduation was days away. They should have cheered, taken photographs, and embarrassed me like any parents. “What should I do?” Finally, I murmured.…
In a stunning appearance on the Jesse Kelly Show, Rep. Harriet Hageman (R-WY) blasted Judge Boasberg, who became infamous for blocking Trump from deporting Venezuelan gang members. In the bombshell interview, the MAGA hardliner slammed liberal judges who distort the Constitution to achieve their political ends. For context, Harriet Hageman is a Republican Representative from Wyoming who rose to prominence for defeating outspoken RINO Rep. Liz Cheney in the 2022 Republican primary, a race in which she was endorsed by former President Donald Trump. Since then, Hageman has been a staunch supporter of President Trump and critic of government overreach.…
In a major bombshell announcement on X, DOGE revealed that the United States Institute for Peace had been kicked out of their $500 million building after a protracted fight between the unelected bureaucrats and federal law enforcement. DOGE also announced the dramatic fraud they found at the controversial institute. As background, DOGE rocked USIP in epic style by firing over 300 workers and announcing a plan to reassign the institute’s $500 million headquarters to the Government Services Administration (GSA). While some angry bureaucrats have sued DOGE for their decision, a federal judge declined to block the restructuring. Such was shown…
