Michael Grimm, a former House Republican from New York, has been paralyzed from injuries he sustained in a September horse riding accident. “Our friend, former Marine, FBI Agent, and US Congressman Michael Grimm was paralyzed following a devastating accident when thrown from a horse in September 2024,” a GoFundMe page set up for the former representative read. “He has been in the most devastating of situations and through the grace of God, Mr. Grimm has miraculously thread the needle to survive. Yet, his ongoing care and the treatment to walk again will cost millions of dollars,” it added. Newsmax host Carl Higbie said Grimm “broke his neck.” My good friend @MichaelGrimmNY and fellow @NEWSMAX host, as you may know… broke his neck and will be undergoing a LONG battle to walk again. I ask that you help where you can, as we help him get his life back together. THANK YOU!!https://t.co/2SAVGj4D0g — Carl Higbie (@CarlHigbie) November 10, 2024 SILive reports: Former South Shore City Councilman Vincent Ignizio, who now serves as deputy executive director of the New York City Board of Elections, took to Facebook to encourage “prayers and a donation” for Grimm. He revealed that Grimm is paralyzed and cannot walk due to the accident. Ignizio posted a link to the “Help Michael Grimm Walk Again” GoFundMe page that has already raised $15,146 as of 10:23 a.m. on Sunday. The goal is $2.5 million. Ignizio’s post explained that Grimm “needs help to cover the substantial costs that insurance doesn’t cover.” In a comment to the Advance/SILive.com, Ignizio called Grimm “a great friend [and] a great patriot,” saying: “Staten Island always steps up when someone is in need, and I’m hopeful that they do the same for a former congressman and friend, Michael Grimm.” Grimm served in Congress from 2011 to 2015, resigning from his post after being convicted of tax fraud.

Former GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley, who served in the first Trump administration as UN ambassador, responded to Trump’s public statement that she’s not invited in his second administration. “I will not be inviting former Ambassador Nikki Haley, or former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, to join the Trump Administration, which is currently in formation. I very much enjoyed and appreciated working with them previously, and would like to thank them for their service to our Country. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” Trump said on Truth Social. “I was proud to work with President Trump defending America at the United Nations. I wish him, and all who serve, great success in moving us forward to a stronger, safer America over the next four years,” Haley said.

The former South Carolina governor wrote the recently-published opinion piece, which is titled “Trump Isn’t Perfect, but He’s the Better Choice.” “I don’t agree with Mr. Trump 100% of the time,” Haley conceded. “But I do agree with him most of the time, and I disagree with Ms. Harris nearly all the time. That makes this an easy call.” Trump’s announcement to exclude Haley and Pompeo from his second administration received widespread cheers. BREAKING: This is the single greatest action of the new Trump Administration. This is a very, very good sign… pic.twitter.com/xI6A3Ta6lq — Benny Johnson (@bennyjohnson) November 9, 2024 It’s amazing that Trump announced Haley and Pompeo are out! It’s a fantastic signal! But here’s the thing: not good enough. We don’t just not want Haley or Pompeo, we don’t want them for reasons. Because they are insane war hawks. So, no insane war hawks That should be the bar. — Dave Smith (@ComicDaveSmith) November 10, 2024 This is huge, fantastic news. Pompeo and Haley are unrepentant neocons, and Pompeo was up to all kinds of nonsense to thwart Russiagate collusion investigations during the first Trump term. pic.twitter.com/7mJ04KkAxG — Sean Davis (@seanmdav) November 10, 2024 Axios reports: There is plenty of water under the bridge between Haley, Trump’s former UN ambassador, and the president-elect after they clashed during the GOP primary. Though she ultimately endorsed Trump, she rebuked him on the campaign trail as “unhinged” and “toxic.” Trump had previously said Haley would be on his team in “some form” after she vowed to vote for him. There was even speculation she could serve as the president-elect’s running mate — an idea Trump quickly quashed in May.

Venezuelans, who make up the vast majority of illegal immigrants seeking approval to stay in the United States through a program expanded by the Biden administration, are excited about Donald Trump’s re-election, the New York Times reports. Many in Venezuela believe that Trump will do what Vice President Kamala Harris failed to do as Border Czar: address the “root causes” of immigration, making it unnecessary to seek a better life in the United States. That includes the hope that Trump, exerting a stronger influence on the world stage, might lead to the ousting of Venezuela’s authoritarian leader Nicolas Maduro. “Pedro Ron, 28, a delivery worker from Venezuela who lives in Bogotá, the Colombian capital, said his neighborhood was full of celebrating Venezuelans on Nov. 6, the day after Mr. Trump’s victory,” the Times said.  “Everybody was like, ‘I hope Trump lends a hand to help,’” Ron said. Others who would have made the trek to the United States have already decided not to, since they think Trump, unlike Biden, will not turn a blind eye to illegal immigration or false claims of persecution. Daniel Garcia, a Venezuelan delivery worker who planned to enter the United States illegally this week, canceled his plans after Trump’s election because “it is a very high investment” and “I prefer not to risk it,” The Times said. “Many Venezuelans have told New York Times reporters that part of their decision to make the journey had to do with a belief that Mr. Biden had created a special border entry policy for people from their country,” the Times said. On the campaign trail, Trump said the Biden-Harris administration gave up leverage with Latin American leaders by being weak. He said Venezuela was trying to reduce crime in its country by sending its criminals to the United States, and refusing to accept illegal immigrants deported from the United States. “They wouldn’t take MS-13 back, they dumped them in our country and wouldn’t take them back,” Trump said. “I said you’re never getting money from the U.S. They said ‘sir, we’d love to take them back, we’d love to have MS-13 back. We took them back by the thousands, and then these clowns took over… now they’re paying them $4 billion I understand, and now they still don’t take them back. We have the dumbest people in history running our government right now.” Maduro was on the receiving end of tough sanctions during the Trump administration, and remained in power after being accused of stealing an election during the Biden-Harris administration. He has tried to get on Trump’s good side, saying “In his first government … Trump wasn’t good to us [but] this is a new start.” The next few months could see a last gasp of illegal immigrants looking to rush into the United States before Trump takes office. The Times said there are three migrant caravans currently heading north from southern Mexico, the largest with 1,600 people. The Biden-Harris administration has authorized mass overtime for Department of Homeland Security officials to grant or deny Temporary Protected Status (TPS) to a backlog of migrants in the coming months. TPS takes illegal immigrants who are already in the country and allows them to work and shields them from deportation for two years. The agents primarily “vet” applicants based on yes-or-no answers provided by the migrants themselves on a form.

No matter how hard we try, stopping the clock is impossible. If we’re lucky enough to grow older, there will be signs of our age. Wrinkles, grey hair, and saggy skin are normal parts of aging. Some people will do whatever they can to find the fountain of youth, while others embrace their older selves. There is nothing wrong with growing older and changing. In recent years, we’ve lauded several celebrities for showing their natural faces. Cindy Crawford is the most recent person to share a make-up-free photo—and fans loved it. At 58, Cindy is as beautiful as ever. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Cindy Crawford (@cindycrawford) Cindy Crawford’s Make-Up Free Go A Lot Of Attention More than two decades ago, Cindy teamed up with Dr. Jean-Louis Sebagh to create a skincare line called Meaningful Beauty. Cindy wanted women to have access to great skincare products that would give them a boost. “Feeling beautiful can give women self-confidence at every age. That’s the foundation of Meaningful Beauty. Achieving healthy, glowing skin is a reflection of taking good care of yourself and accepting who you are. After that, you can go enjoy your life,” she shares on the company website. She tagged Meaningful Beauty in her Instagram shot when she was “Cozying up” with her skincare. Immediately, fans noticed how Cindy Crawford’s make-up-free skin positively glowed. One wrote, “You still look beautiful Cindy.” “OMG. Perfection,” another agreed. This person applauded Cindy for being natural, “Finally someone not stretched to their ears. Natural beauty.” “Nice natural shot with glowing pure skin with nice features aglow,” another person noticed. Cindy also shared a throwback picture in a separate post with her daughter, Kaia Gerber. Although the two shots were taken many years apart, one thing remains the same. Cindy Crawford looks just as incredible in her make-up-free shot today as she did back then. She is a true example of growing older gracefully and enjoying life. This story’s featured image is by DFree via Shutterstock.
