Democrats were left with a heaping helping of egg on their face after another attempt to link President Trump to Jeffrey Epstein failed, forcing them to scramble to delete the flimsy “evidence” involving their latest baseless claim.

The Democratic National Committee’s official X account on Thursday posted and then quickly deleted a claim alleging the President spent Thanksgiving 2017 with Jeffrey Epstein.

Using incredibly out-of-context emails, the DNC made it clear that they were offering evidence that “documents show Donald Trump spent Thanksgiving with Jeffrey Epstein in 2017.”

Whoever pushed out that message clearly struggles with reading comprehension and didn’t for a moment wonder about the plausibility of the leader of the free world sneaking out of Turkey Day celebrations to pal around with a convicted sex offender for a few hours … without anybody noticing.

Canada’s spiraling euthanasia system is once again under fire as heartbreaking new accounts reveal that a surging number of patients are being forced into “choosing” the government’s “assisted suicide” death program after being denied actual medical care under the nation’s collapsing socialized healthcare model.

An alarming number of Canadians are reporting that they have no other choice but to agree to be euthanized by the government, despite the supposed availability of treatments for their conditions.

As Slay News has previously reported, the government’s Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) program is now saving tens of millions of dollars a year.

In 2024, the government saved over $136 million by euthanizing patients instead of treating them.

… Patel then pointed out the bombshell that dropped just weeks ago. According to him, former CIA Director Gina Haspel “authorized six case officers and intelligence analysts to be paid off so that they would change their assessment on COVID originations.”

“That’s a CIA institutional decision to spend taxpayer dollars to lie to the world where COVID came from because it fit the narrative that Fauci and the media wanted out there, along with Gina Haspel, because she didn’t want Donald Trump to get the credit for reading the intel right and making the hard right decision,” he said.

That accusation tracks with years of bureaucratic sabotage aimed at undermining Trump, especially on issues where he refused to bow to elite groupthink. According to Patel’s findings, the CIA took extraordinary measures to conceal the truth. The agency used public money to manipulate analysts, rewrite assessments, and bury an origin story that threatened the political storyline the left had banked everything on. Trump was right about China. Fauci was wrong. The media was wrong. And the bureaucracy moved heaven and earth to keep that reality under wraps.

Gunmen reportedly attacked a church in Nigeria, killing at least two people and kidnapping the pastor and some worshippers, according to Reuters, which cited police and witnesses.

The attack occurred on Tuesday evening in Eruku, a town in central Nigeria’s Kwara State. Reuters said it reviewed and verified a video from a local news outlet showing gunfire interrupting a service at Christ Apostolic Church and forcing parishioners to take cover. The outlet noted that in the video, armed men are seen entering and taking worshippers’ belongings as gunshots ring out.

AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, the governor of Kwara State, Nigeria, reportedly asked for the immediate deployment of security operatives after the attack, Reuters reported citing the governor’s spokesperson.

The Trump administration had partnered with Russia to develop a peace proposal to end the war in Ukraine, according to a new report.

The 28-point plan is modeled after the plan developed that brought a ceasefire to Gaza, according to Axios.

Axios reported that a top Russian official who was not named supports the plan, but the reaction of Ukraine and its European allies remains unknown.

The report said the general areas of the plan include security guarantees, the issue of security in Europe, future American-Russian relations, and an end to the fighting in Ukraine.

The Biden administration hid critical information about Thomas Matthew Crooks — the person who shot President Donald Trump and three others in Butler, Pennsylvania — throughout the 2024 election, according to a report from the New York Post.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) under Biden appears to have knowingly lied to Congress, misled the American people, and, at best, was negligent in its duty to track Crooks after he reportedly made numerous statements about committing political violence and assassinations.

The NYP received information from a source showing that Crooks did have a history of significant online activity, despite then-Biden FBI Director Christopher Wray testifying that Crooks had no “online history that pointed to motive or political ideology.” Wray also attempted to downplay Trump’s being shot by suggesting he may have been hit with a piece of shrapnel from his podium, despite no evidence of that whatsoever.

Paul Abbate, former FBI deputy director under Wray, seemed to muddy the water even more, telling Congress that some social media accounts connected to Crooks “appear to reflect antisemitic and anti-immigration themes to espouse political violence and are described as extreme in nature.”

That is true, but the posts Abbate was referring to — which appear to paint Crooks in some sort of right-wing extremism light — were quite a bit older than posts showing a left-wing, anti-Trump ideology Crooks seems to have adopted over time.

The United Nations adopted the United States’s proposal on Monday to begin implementing the next phase of President Donald Trump’s peace plan for Gaza.

Trump’s 20-point plan to achieve lasting stability in the region, which had been beset by hostilities between Hamas and Israel, gained international legitimacy after the 15-member council voted 13-0 in favor of a resolution endorsing the plan’s proposal for a temporary new government in Gaza.

Russia and China abstained from the vote, which supported the establishment of the “Board of Peace,” chaired by Trump as a transitional government, and the creation of a temporary “International Stabilization Force” in Gaza.

Volodymyr Zelensky is facing a political firestorm as calls grow for him to dump his powerful chief of staff, Andriy Yermak, in a corruption scandal that now includes a golden toilet.

Ukraine’s National Anti-Corruption Bureau says roughly £76 million was siphoned out of the country’s energy sector by business leaders and government officials. Yermak, Zelensky’s closest aide, is accused of choking off anti-corruption probes, though investigators have not accused him of taking a cut of the scheme himself.

Unnamed officials warned local media that Zelensky’s entire government could collapse if he refuses to remove Yermak, saying, “Our enemies smell blood.”

The allegations hit a nerve in a country where families endure constant rolling blackouts because of Russia’s attacks on energy infrastructure.

Democrat Virgin Islands Del. Stacey Plaskett is attempting to explain away newly uncovered messages showing she exchanged real-time texts with Jeffrey Epstein during an anti-Trump 2019 congressional hearing.

During the hearing, Plaskett was even taking Epstein’s direction on how to question a witness attacking President Donald Trump, as Slay News first reported.

Her defense came the same day the House rejected a conservative push to censure her and remove her from the powerful House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.

Plaskett argued Tuesday that Epstein was simply a local constituent at the time and that she did not know he was under renewed federal investigation.

“I got a text from Jeffrey Epstein, who at the time was my constituent,” Plaskett said.

Amid the several race-based redistricting fights across the country ahead of the midterms, including states like Texas and California, one Southern state joined the ranks Monday in a move that has left nobody satisfied.

A federal judge ordered a small redistricting effort after finding back in August that the current Alabama state Senate district map violated the Voting Rights Act.

The new plan does enough to remedy the disparities while not upsetting other districts.

On Monday, U.S. District Judge Anna Manasco, a first-term Trump appointee, ordered that a new map that rearranged District 25 and District 26, two Montgomery-area districts, be implemented in time for the 2026 midterms.

Democrat state Senator Kirk Hatcher currently represents Senate District 26, and Republican state Senator Will Barfoot represents Senate District 25.

Hungary will challenge the European Union’s plan to end Russian energy imports and take the case to an EU court, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said Friday.

Speaking on state radio, Orbán accused the bloc of trying to sidestep his veto power over sanctions on Russian energy by instead using trade rules in its plan to phase out all imports of Russian oil and gas by the end of 2027.

“We are turning to the European Court of Justice in this matter,” Orbán said.

“This is a flagrant violation of European law, the rule of law and European cooperation … They will pay a very high price for this.”

A violent “protester” named “Jihad” was arrested on charges of assault and robbery following a brutal confrontation at a Turning Point USA rally at the University of California, Berkeley.

Antifa thugs attacked conservative attendees at the event on November 10, marking the two-month anniversary of the organization’s founder, Charlie Kirk, Breitbart reported.

The man in custody allegedly stole a necklace from someone in the crowd, which led to a fight.

Both the victim, who was wearing a red shirt emblazoned with “Freedom” like the one Kirk wore on the day he died, and the alleged perpetrator, Jihad Dphrepaulezz, were left bloody from the confrontation.

A spokesman for the Berkeley Police Department said:

“Officers determined that one of the men — Jihad Dphrepaulezz — had stolen the other man’s chain from around his neck.

The United States may lose its measles elimination status as soon as January, marking the sustained resurgence of a disease that had been eliminated from the country 25 years ago.

On Nov. 10, Canada lost its measles elimination status, after the Pan American Health Organization concluded that the country’s recent measles outbreaks were connected and represented ongoing transmission lasting more than 12 months. Measles is considered eliminated in a country or region only when there are no outbreaks lasting longer than a year. Thus, to maintain “elimination status,” any introductions of the disease from travel must be quashed before 12 consecutive months of spread.

Dietrich Bonhoeffer, the German theologian and fierce anti-Nazi, a man so dangerous to the Nazi movement that he was one of the last people they killed lest he taste liberation, was a man of extraordinary moral courage. For Tucker Carlson, however, he was a failed Christian for having dared to stand up to Hitler (and, probably, for having rescued Jews).

One of the problems with being your own boss is that there’s no one around to stop you when you go too far. Another problem with being rich, famous, and your own boss is that the sycophants in your world will encourage you to go too far, since their entire being is dedicated to saying “yes,” in the hopes that they’ll benefit from your wealth and fame. Maybe that explains Tucker Carlson’s latest madness in attacking Dietrich Bonhoeffer as a bad Christian.

Diplomatic dispute deepens between Tokyo and Beijing over Taiwan remarks by Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi.

China will again ban all imports of Japanese seafood as a diplomatic dispute between the two countries escalates, Japanese media report.

Japanese public broadcaster NHK and Kyodo News agency said on Wednesday that the seafood ban follows after China earlier this month lifted import restrictions on Japanese marine products, which were imposed by Beijing in 2023 after the release of treated radioactive water from Japan’s crippled Fukushima nuclear plant into the sea.

Progressives in higher education are not listening to the country on this topic; they just keep doubling down.

UMich faculty senate urges school to continue performing sex changes for minors

The Faculty Senate at the University of Michigan passed a resolution at its Nov. 3 meeting that pushes the university to resume performing sex changes on minors.

The resolution argues that because “cisgender” patients receive hormone blockers, the university is discriminating against transgender-identifying individuals by refusing to give them care. The resolution does not elaborate further, but could be referring to treatments for precocious puberty, a condition in which young children go through puberty at a very early age.

The university paused “gender-affirming care” at Michigan Medicine for patients under 19 on Aug. 25, due to federal pressure. President Donald Trump signed an executive order in January that threatened loss of federal funding for institutions that failed to eliminate the practice.

Since the Democrats swept the 2025 mid-midterms, the MSM is already talking about an “upset” in the 35 midterm U.S. Senate races.

The RCP average is now flashing “red”, with President Trump at 42.3% approval, versus 54.7% disapproval.  Trump has been at the dangerous 43% approval number since November 3 (which is unfortunate, since that is also my birthday ☹).  This is Bush territory, and as such, it could lead to a “blue wave” if it is left unchecked.

The proposition granting the Democrat-controlled legislature authority to redraw California’s congressional districts won by a decisive margin, but the Trump administration is suing to stop the gerrymandering scheme.

On Thursday the Department of Justice filed to join a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the law that would allow Democrats to possibly flip five Republican seats in the U.S. House of Representatives.

‘Race cannot be used as a proxy to advance political interests, but that is precisely what the California General Assembly did with Prop. 50.’

Did Gavin Newsom forget that the Department of Justice arrested the suspect believed to have started the Palisades fire in January? Because he’s still out there blaming an invisible climate that no one can see, feel, or comprehend—despite all the evidence proving otherwise.

According to Newsom, the climate is “climate-ing.” You know, dryness is dry and hotter is hot—a concept that shouldn’t be blamed on invisible, evil forces. But, of course, Newsom doesn’t care about this little thing called “facts,” which is why he went on to blame climate change for his state’s failures.

And don’t take their failures lightly. Although the blaze was originally started by arson, according to officials, there are still reports that firefighters were ordered not to monitor the fire closely—despite knowing that winds were reaching 100 mph.

Axios claims Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) will run for president in 2028 by professing his conservative views while attacking Tucker Carlson.

I have to admit that it’s a great way to showcase your traditional conservative views.

But it will likely put him against Vice President JD Vance:

Why it matters: By poking at Carlson’s isolationist foreign policy views, accusing him of antisemitism and more, Cruz is putting himself on a collision course with Vice President Vance, a Carlson ally widely seen as the 2028 GOP frontrunner.

  • The senator also is diving into issues that are tearing at President Trump’s MAGA movement, namely ideological differences over Israel.
  • “We have a responsibility to speak out even when it’s uncomfortable,” Cruz said in a statement to Axios. “When voices in our own movement push dangerous and misguided ideas, we can’t look the other way. I won’t hesitate to call out those who peddle destructive, vile rhetoric and threaten our principles and our future. Silence in the face of recklessness is not an option.”

President Donald Trump weighed in on a pair of Indiana Republicans involved in thwarting redistricting efforts in the Hoosier State ahead of next year’s midterm elections. As you might have guessed, he wasn’t pleased with their actions.

As reported by RedState’s Teri Christoph, Indiana’s Republican Senate President Pro Tem Rodric Bray announced earlier this week that the chamber, controlled by the GOP, would not reconvene in December to vote on redistricting.

Bray, along with state Sen. Greg Goode (R), was the target of the President’s ire as he railed against their “politically correct” cowardice for developing an acute case of weak knees at the thought of redistricting.

“Very disappointed in Indiana State Senate Republicans, led by RINO Senators Rod Bray and Greg Goode, for not wanting to redistrict their State, allowing the United States Congress to perhaps gain two more Republican seats,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social media platform.

President Donald Trump says Americans won’t have to wait much longer to see direct benefits from his tariff policies. In new comments made on Monday, President Trump revealed that the administration expects to begin issuing “tariff dividend checks” as early as the middle of next year, delivering thousands of dollars to middle and moderate income households.

During remarks, Trump detailed how the United States has collected “hundreds of millions of dollars in tariff money,” which he argues has both strengthened American industry and created a surplus that can now be returned directly to taxpayers.

“We’re going to be issuing dividends later on, somewhere prior to, probably in the middle of next year, a little bit later than that, of thousands of dollars for individuals of moderate income, middle income. We’re going to pay down debt. We have a lot of money from tariffs,” Trump said.
