"President-elect Trump on Sunday rallied with supporters in Washington, D.C., on the eve of his second inauguration, taking a victory lap and teasing an expected barrage of activity on his first day in office. ...

President-elect Trump promised a blitz of executive action on Day 1 in the Oval Office, including sweeping repeals of Biden administration policies, and pledged that his followers will 'have a lot of fun' watching the barrage.  

'Every radical and foolish executive order of the Biden administration will be repealed within hours of when I take the oath of office,' Trump said.  

'Oh, you're going to have a lot of fun watching television tomorrow,' he told the crowd. 'Somebody said yesterday, "Sir, don't sign so many in one day. Let's do it over a period of weeks.' I said, 'Like hell we're going to do it over weeks.' We're going to sign them at the beginning.""

"Days before departing his last political job, a beleaguered Joe Biden went to the podium to announce a long-awaited ceasefire between Hamas and Israel. But when pressed by the news media over who should get credit for the deal, the 46th American president demurred.

'Is that a joke?' Biden retorted Wednesday afternoon. And moments later he walked away without providing an answer.

Half way across the globe, another world figure whose country was lead negotiator in the deal offered a clear answer: The man succeeding Biden as U.S. president had changed the dynamic and enabled a deal that had been stalled for months."

"The recently released White House report blaming computer software for the massive increases in rental prices that Americans have suffered over the past four years is best described as a self-serving whitewash.

"This report claims that algorithmic pricing software, used by property owners to set a market price for their rental properties, has artificially inflated rents. But this analysis conveniently ignores the primary culprit -- the Federal Reserve's dovish monetary policy and the Biden administration's reckless economic agenda.

"Inflation didn't just happen; it was fueled by the Fed's printing press and the White House's excessive spending programs, which flooded the economy with trillions of dollars. This spending spree drove up demand across the board, which -- by increasing competition for available properties -- inflated prices."

"The Federal Emergency Management Agency program for Transitional Sheltering Assistance, primarily using hotels, has more than 5,600 households from within the state enrolled.

"Through last Wednesday, U.S. Sen. Thom Tillis, R-N.C., said only 93 families had been placed in FEMA direct housing -- 320 less than the same timeframe after a hurricane six years ago when Florence devastated the southeastern part of the state."

"The Biden administration will hold off enforcing a requirement laid out in an executive order this month that Nippon Steel abandon its $14.9 billion bid for U.S. Steel, the companies said on Saturday.

"U.S. President Joe Biden blocked Nippon Steel's planned acquisition of U.S. Steel on national security grounds on Jan. 3, and his Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said this week that the proposed deal had received a 'thorough analysis' by interagency review body, the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States.

"The delay will give the courts time to review a legal challenge brought by the parties earlier this month against Biden's order. The parties previously had 30 days to unwind their transaction."

"The incoming Trump administration scored an early but possibly illusory victory last month in its effort to reform government overreach when it successfully pressured Congress to eliminate what it termed 'sweetheart provisions for government censors' from a measure to stave off a government shutdown.

Funding for the State Department's Global Engagement Center -- which Republicans had attacked as a tool of domestic censorship -- was stripped from the final bill, and the center announced that it was closed for good on Dec. 23. Days later, however, reporting emerged that the State Department had devised plans to shift the center's 51 employees and millions of dollars of funding to a separate hub purportedly to counter foreign 'information manipulation and interference.'

President-elect Donald Trump has not said how he will respond to this maneuver. But in extensive public comments he has said that targeting what critics have called the Censorship Industrial Complex will be a high priority in his new administration."

"Years before wildfires reduced Los Angeles' most famous neighborhoods to charred rubble and forced thousands to flee, audits and reports repeatedly raised concerns that California's water management and fire prevention policies would one day lead to a catastrophic inferno.

"The concerns ranged from failed regulatory efforts to make utility transmission wires more fire safe to the management of vegetation and brush clearing and water supplies in an oft drought-stricken state, according to documents reviewed by Just the News."

"The Democrat-run Senate Judiciary Committee's two-year partisan assault on conservative Supreme Court justices, especially Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito, on baseless 'ethics' allegations ended with a pathetic 93-page Democrat staff report replete with dishonest and false information. It was so bad it was issued the day after Congress left town for the year and right before the Christmas recess.

"This entire investigation was never about 'ethics' but about trying to undermine the Supreme Court because it is no longer acting like a left-wing super legislature handing down opinions implementing the Democrats' political agenda.

"The Democrats falsely accused Justices Thomas and Alito of violating ethics laws by not disclosing vacations with friends and not recusing from cases because of their spouses' activities. They are wrong on both counts."

"Today's decision is a good win for the country. Over the past four years, the Biden Administration has worked to expand the governmen't control over every feature of the Internet ecosystem. You can see it in the Biden Administration's efforts to pressure social media companies into censoring the free speech rights of everyday Americans. You can see it in the Biden Administration's demand that the FCC adopt 'digital equity' rules for the Internet -- sweeping regulations that give the Commission nearly limitless powers over the Internet. And you can see it in the Biden Administration's decision to impose so-called 'net neutrality' rules by applying Title II or utility-style regulations to the Internet.

"President Biden's decision to impose these Title II regulations represented a break from the bipartisan consensus established by a Republican Congress and a Democrat President and enshrined in law nearly thirty years ago -- a consensus that provided a stable regulatory framework that allowed the Internet in America to flourish. And President Biden's entire plan rested on the Chicken Little tactic of persuading Americans that the Internet would break in the absence of these so-called 'net neutrality' regulations. he American people have now seen through that ruse. ...

"I am pleased that the appellate court invalidated President Biden's Internet power grab by striking down these unlawful Title II regulations. But the work to unwind the Biden Administration's regulatory overreach will continue. I welcome the chance to advance a policy agenda that will deliver great results for the American people."
