Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-SC) said in an interview over the weekend that he believes President-elect Donald Trump is another dictator like Adolf Hitler or Benito Mussolini. Clyburn made the remarks during a Saturday interview with Neil Cavuto on Fox News’ “Cavuto Live” while talking about the country’s shift to the political Right in this month’s elections. “We go from left to right in this country,” he said. “We go from right back left in this country. And I always say, well whether the pendulum is going from left to right or right to left, it always passes through the middle.” “Now, the country has gone lurching back to the right,” he continued. “I hope it’s not going as far right as that which happened in Germany in the 1930s. But you may remember I forewarned way back in 2018 that I saw this coming. I’ve studied history all of my life.” Cavuto pushed back, asking if he was saying that he is “envisioning another Hitler.” “That’s exactly what I’m saying,” Clyburn said. “I said the 1930s in Germany. And of course, we go to Mussolini in Italy.” Clyburn added that he was not being hyperbolic by making the comparison. ?Wow. Democrats are still calling President Trump Hitler: Neil Cavuto: “Are you envisioning [Trump] as another Hitler — is that what you’re saying?” Jim Clyburn: “That’s exactly what I’m saying!” Cavuto: “You don’t think that’s a little hyperbolic?” Clyburn: “You may think… pic.twitter.com/gm3ver1qC9 — Steve Cortes (@CortesSteve) November 16, 2024 Republican strategist Steve Guest responded to the clip by posting on X: “Democrats are rhetorical arsonists who don’t care about the consequences of their rhetoric.” “President-elect Trump had already faced multiple assassination attempts,” he said. “Clyburn’s comments this morning only add fuel to the fire.” Claremont Institute senior fellow Jeremy Carl made a similar assessment of Clyburn’s remarks. “Former long-time member of Democrat leadership throwing around this type of dangerous language at a President who has already been the victim of two assassination attempts,” he said. “It’s dangerous and outrageous.” Radio host Julie Gunlock posted on X: “Yup. They want him dead. They’ll keep saying it.”

NFL players from across the league have celebrated their individual victories by doing what’s been labeled the “Trump” dance, in honor of President-elect Donald Trump, which became a viral hit during the 2024 election. Video of Trump dancing to the Village People’s “Y.M.C.A.” at his numerous presidential rallies led to supporters making videos of themselves doing the same dance moves, making the “Trump” dance a viral sensation that is now showing up at sporting events everywhere.  Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers did the “Trump” dance moves when he scored a touchdown on Sunday, after he caught a 23-yard pass late in the third quarter to give the Raiders 12 points against the Miami Dolphin’s 17. And while those watching the game live saw Bowers’ dance in the end zone — and then a shot of Raiders’ owner Mark Davis reacting to the TD — the victory celebration seemed to be missing from the post “NFL on CBS” made on X, OutKick noted. The social media post cut showed the 23-yard catch and then cut straight to the shot of Davis in his suite. After the game at a press conference, a reporter asked Bowers about the dance and he said that, “I’ve seen everyone do it … I watched the UFC fight last night and Jon Jones did it. I like watching UFC so I saw it, and thought it was cool.” But Bowers wasn’t the only NFL player rocking the dance moves, which Trump made famous while dancing to the “Y.M.C.A” by making two fists and twisting his hips. During the Detroit Lions game Za’Darius Smith and Malcolm Rodriguez celebrated their team’s defensive stop on Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars, also by doing the funny Trump-esque dance moves.  Tennessee Titan’s players Calvin Ridley and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine busted out the Trump moves ahead of what appeared to be a touchdown during the team’s game against the Minnesota Vikings.  A week earlier — shortly after Trump’s victory against Vice President Kamala Harris — it was San Francisco 49ers star Nick Bosa who first did the Trump dance moves on the field following a sack of a Tampa Bay Buccaneers player, the Post noted. The viral dance even made an appearance on Saturday at Madison Square Garden during the UFC Championship, when Jon “Bones” Jones rocked the moves from the ring in his victory against Stipe Miocic, USA Today noted. After Jones won, he stood in the ring, did the Trump dance, and then pointed to President-elect Donald Trump — who was in the audience with several supporters, including Kid Rock, X founder Elon Musk, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and Tulsi Gabbard. Jones later told members of the press, “I’m proud to be a great American champion. I’m proud to be a Christian American champion.”

Sometimes, we’re late no matter how hard we try to be on time. And if we are the kind of person who is chronically late, it may be difficult to keep coming up with good excuses. We can be caught in traffic only so many times before people tell us to leave a bit earlier. But sometimes, the reason is so epic we must share it with the world. Samantha Johnson was late to class on November 14 but knew there was no way her teacher would be angry if she shared why. The college student grabbed Prince William to help. The pair recorded an incredible TikTok that undoubtedly served as the perfect excuse and is now a viral sensation. @samanthaj0hns0n #princewilliam #royalfamily #ulsteruniversity #university #lecture #late ♬ original sound – samantha Prince William Was On The College Student’s Side He may be 42, but that doesn’t mean William’s forgotten what it’s like to be young. So, when Samantha asked him to help, he jumped at the chance. With several students gathered around at Ulster University in Northern Ireland, Prince William made the request to Samanta’s teacher. Samantha told him, “Yeah, just tell her why we’re late.” Then William, ensuring he got the details correct, began to record. “Lesley, I’m very sorry we’re late, but they seem to be caught up, and they wouldn’t believe that you were here, so, just wanted to say hi.”  With 7.3 million views, people loved Prince William helping a late college student out. A fan wrote, “Interactions with royals are getting more and more unserious, and I love that for them.” This person has met William and agreed he’s the best. “I’ve met prince William, and he’s the kindest person ever!!” Ulta Beauty commented from their official TikTok, “The king has spoken.” Samantha commented back, “I’ve been royally pardoned from my lecture.” Prince William made the students’ day and gave Samantha a story that will go down in history.

'Its recent discovery raises more questions'

She was very close in proximity, but she skipped out

'Virtually every state in the United States'

Some of the 20 Senate Republicans who voted to confirm President Joe Biden’s pick of Merrick Garland for attorney general already are shaking their heads at President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee as the nation’s top law enforcer.   Several of those GOP senators have spoken out against Trump’s choice last week of Matt Gaetz for attorney general. Others of the 20 Senate Republicans who backed Garland may follow in criticizing Gaetz as his nomination proceeds. Gaetz, a Republican, represented a Florida district in the U.S. House for over seven years before resigning Wednesday shortly after being tapped publicly by Trump to lead the Justice Department.  The 20 Republican senators who voted in 2021 to confirm Garland as attorney general are, in alphabetical order, Roy Blunt of Missouri, Richard Burr of North Carolina, Shelley Moore Capito of West Virginia,  Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, Susan Collins of Maine, John Cornyn of Texas, Joni Ernst of Iowa, Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, Chuck Grassley of Iowa, Jim Inhofe of Oklahoma, Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, James Lankford of Oklahoma, Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, Jerry Moran of Kansas, Lisa Murkowski of Arkansas, Rob Portman of Ohio, Mitt Romney of Utah, Mike Rounds of South Dakota, John Thune of South Dakota, and Thom Tillis of North Carolina.  Some of these Republican senators have expressed discontent and uncertainty with Trump’s choice of Gaetz for attorney general, although they voted less than four years ago to confirm Garland to fill the same role for Biden, a staunch Democrat.  Thune and Cornyn were just in a three-way race with Sen. Rick Scott of Florida to lead the GOP conference as Senate majority leader next year. Thune won. Thune told The Hill that he is unsure whether Gaetz, who last year almost singlehandedly toppled House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., will make it through the Senate confirmation process.  “I don’t know [how Gaetz will do] until we start the process, and that’s what we intend to do with him and all the other potential nominees,” Thune told reporters Thursday, according to The Hill, adding that senators “expect our committees to do their jobs and provide the advice and consent that is required under the Constitution.”  On Jan. 3, as a result of the Nov. 5 election, Thune and the Republicans will gain control of the Senate over Democrats, 53-47. Even so, Gaetz, who many senators regarded as a conservative gadfly in the House, has a tough fight ahead of him to become attorney general in the second Trump administration.   Assuming all 45 Democrats and two independents who caucus with Democrats vote “nay” on Gaetz, the former congressman can lose the votes of only four Republican senators and still be confirmed. (Vice President JD Vance may cast any tie-breaking votes in the Senate after he is sworn in Jan. 20.)  Going to be very hard for Republican Senators to explain why they voted for Merrick Garland but won’t vote for Matt Gaetz.— Charlie Kirk (@charliekirk11) November 18, 2024 Collins told reporters that she was shocked by Trump’s pick of Gaetz, Politico reported.  “Obviously, the president has the right to nominate whomever he wishes,” Collins told the reporters. “But this is why the Senate’s advise and consent process is so important. I’m sure that there will be many, many questions raised at Mr. Gaetz’s hearing, if in fact the nomination goes forward.”    Tillis also voiced his opinion.  “I have very few skills, [but] vote counting is one and I think he’s got a lot of work to get 50,” he said of Gaetz.  Alaska’s Murkowski also expressed doubts, Politico reported.  “I don’t think it’s a serious nomination for the attorney general. … I’m looking forward to the opportunity to consider somebody that is serious,” Murkowski said. “This one was not on my bingo card.”  Capito told WTRF-TV in West Virginia that she believes Trump’s Nov. 5 win was a mandate from voters for change.  “I’m not surprised that he has appointed somebody to shake it up the way that he would like to,” Capito said of Trump, Gaetz, and the Justice Department, “but I would remind everybody that the process that we’re going forward on in terms of nominations is a grueling process and it’s very much a vetting process.”  “And so I expect that we will be doing that … probably beginning in January as this process moves forward,” Capito added.  Johnson said he would keep an “open mind” during the appointment process, The Wall Street Journal reported. Tillis told the Raleigh-based News & Observer that he cares about “a defensible resume and a really clear vetting.”  “We normally give the president the benefit of the doubt,” Rounds told The Hill, “but we still do our due diligence, and ‘advice and consent’ is still important.”  Graham told Fox News host Sean Hannity that Gaetz should be heard because he is Trump’s choice for attorney general.  “Every president deserves a chance to pick their Cabinet,” Graham said.  Garland, a former federal appeals court judge for the District of Columbia, took office as attorney general on March 11, 2021. President Barack Obama had named Garland to succeed the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, but Senate Republicans blocked that appointment until after the 2016 presidential election.   Republicans in both the House and Senate have criticized many of Garland’s actions (or lack of action) as attorney general.  After the Supreme Court’s 2022 ruling overturning Roe v. Wade and abortion on demand in the Dobbs v. Jackson decision was leaked, for example, the Justice Department declined to prosecute protesters outside the homes of conservative justices.  Garland’s Justice Department angered conservatives by prosecuting Trump, or allowing his prosecution, after he left the presidency in January 2021, while at the same time not investigating the explosive contents of a laptop abandoned by Hunter Biden, the new president’s son.  Garland also presided over his department’s pursuit and prosecution of pro-life activists. Ken McIntyre contributed to this developing story, which will be updated.

If you're tired of censorship and dystopian threats against civil liberties, subscribe to Reclaim The Net. Justice Department antitrust officials are gearing up to ask a judge to compel Google to divest its Chrome browser, signaling a significant intervention against one of the tech sector’s giants. This move follows a ruling in August by the judge that Google had unlawfully monopolized the search market. According to insiders, and as reported by Bloomberg, the department is also seeking further remedies concerning Google’s artificial intelligence and Android smartphone operating system. Additionally, together with several states, they are recommending that Judge Amit Mehta, who presided over the case, implement data licensing requirements. These proposals are said to be presented to Judge Mehta on Wednesday. The legal efforts, which began during the first Trump administration and have continued under President Joe Biden, represent the most forceful action to curb a tech giant since the failed attempt to dismantle Microsoft Corp. two decades ago. The officials argue that the widespread use of Chrome, the world’s leading web browser, is pivotal for Google’s advertising business. This is because it allows the company to gather data from users who are logged in, thereby enhancing the targeting of advertisements which are the main source of its revenue. Moreover, Google has utilized Chrome to steer users towards Gemini, its flagship AI product, enhancing its capabilities from merely providing answers to becoming a comprehensive web assistant. The Justice Department declined to offer any comments on the matter. The idea to divest Chrome is predicated on its function as a principal conduit for Google’s search engine, controlling about 61% of the market in the US. According to Bloomberg, the antitrust officials considered but ultimately rejected a more drastic measure that would have required Google to also sell off its Android system. Over the past quarter, government attorneys have been in discussions with numerous companies as they developed their recommendations. While some state proposals are still under deliberation and details may change, a forced divestiture could depend on finding a suitable buyer. In other aspects of the case, the enforcers plan to recommend that Google license out the data and results from its dominant search engine and allow more flexibility for websites to shield their content from being exploited by Google’s AI tools.
