Kristi Noem Secretly Took a Cut of Political Donations

A dark money group paid $80,000 to Noem’s personal company when she was governor of South Dakota. She did not include this income on her federal disclosure forms, a likely violation of ethics requirements, experts say.

As someone who has studied the costs of detention centers, I can tell you for a fact that this facility will run at a cost substantially higher than average.Detention tent camps are always more expensive to operate than brick and mortar facilities with permanent infrastructure.

Fox News Anchor Accuses Jewish Democrats of Working ‘Against the Interests’ of Their ‘Own People’

Fox News anchor Harris Faulkner accused Jewish members of Congress of working “against the interests” of their “own people” by supporting New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani.

On Monday’s episode of Outnumbered, the panel discussed Mamdani’s shocking win in New York City’s Democratic mayoral primary. More specifically, they touched on the accusations from some that Mamdani’s criticism of Israel is anti-Semitic.

Fox contributor Marie Harf pushed back on those accusations — citing the support Mamdani has received by prominent New Yorkers like Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) and city Comptroller Brad Lander. In what quickly spiraled into a contentious back-and-forth, Faulkner ultimately questioned Nadler and Lander’s commitment to the Jewish faith, while also accusing Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) of working “against the interests of his own people”:
