Excerpt:

With all that is happening in Europe, you would think the need to buck against a legitimate push for peace might take a backseat to a few higher priorities.

But apparently President Trump’s big moves and bold tactics in addressing the war in Ukraine is ruffling a few feathers among the upper crust of Europe’s leaders.

Top administration officials from the United States are preparing to sit down with their Russian counterparts in a serious bid to stop the fighting.

But instead of getting behind President Trump’s push, European leaders seem more fixated on continuing the status-quo of the conflict.

Or, at best, they are intent on pushing their own plans for Ukraine simply because they don’t like President Trump’s big decisive methodology.

Excerpt:

Failed presidential candidate Kamala Harris is leading the pack of Democrat hopefuls for the 2026 California governorship, polling shows.

Speculation has begun about a suitable replacement for the state’s Democrat Gov. Gavin Newsom, who is term-limited, Breitbart reported.

Harris crashed and burned in the 2024 presidential election with her spectacular loss to President Donald Trump.

In a stunning development, Democrats are rallying behind Harris to be the executive of the Golden State.

A recent poll from Emerson College Polling/Inside California Politics/The Hill indicates that Harris is far and away the leading gubernatorial candidate for the Democrats.

Excerpt:

After an extended silence, CNN Chief White House Correspondent Kaitlan Collins has finally responded to accusations of providing material support to the shooter of UnitedHealthCEO Brian Thompson. In an X post, Collins denies the main charge of sharing a fundraising link for the shooter, defending her sharing of a support website due to its being “newsworthy.”

Collins drew broad backlash after her Friday post on X: “Luigi Mangione’s legal defense team has launched a new website today”, along with a link to the website.

Collins didn’t delete the post until after the backlash. Per The New York Post:

CNN chief White House correspondent Kaitlan Collins apparently deleted a social media post after receiving backlash for appearing to promote a defense fund for Luigi Mangione, the alleged UnitedHealthcare CEO killer.

In the post on X, Collins showed a link to a new website launched by defense lawyers for Mangione, who faces charges of first-degree murder in furtherance of an act of terrorism, stalking and other state and federal charges in New York and Pennsylvania for allegedly gunning down UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in Manhattan on Dec. 4, 2024.

After Dobbs, the maternal mortality rate is down– www.washingtonexaminer.com

Excerpt:

The public has been sold the lie that abortion keeps women safe and, by extension, reduces maternal mortality rates. We’ve been told lack of access to so-called reproductive care will kill women. During the 2024 election season, the Harris-Walz campaign pointed to President Donald Trump as a threat to women based on abortion. The data tell a different story.

Abortion lies, not abortion bans, have caused harm to women, and the maternal mortality rate is actually decreasing. Data published this month by the National Center for Health Statistics show the 2023 maternal mortality rate in the United States was “18.6 deaths per 100,000 live births.” This is a total of 669 deaths. In 2022, the rate was 22.3, which resulted in a total of 817 deaths.

Sadly, the U.S. has the highest rate of maternal deaths among developed nations. In the United Kingdom, for example, the maternal mortality rate for 2021-2023 was 12.67 per 100,000 live births. There is much work to be done to reduce our rate even further. However, a decrease is worth mentioning during a time when fearmongering is so prevalent.
