EXCLUSIVE: President Trump on ‘judicial insurrection,’ tariffs, and 100 days in office



On Wednesday, Glenn Beck sat down with President Donald Trump to go over the first 100 days of the second Trump administration. Glenn is the first member of the media to get a 100-day retrospective sit-down. And until Thursday night, you can only see it on BlazeTV. So join now and watch!

In his first nearly 100 days in office, President Trump has moved faster to fix America than anyone expected. He created the DOGE, shut the border down, dismantled USAID and its wasteful spending, and put the world on notice that it can’t take advantage of America any more. But there’s still much more to do, and Americans have questions about what’s next.

Glenn sat down with the president in the Roosevelt Room of the White House for this interview. He asked Trump what the real goal of his tariffs is, whether Elon Musk is really stepping back from the DOGE, whether Mexico is a failed narco-state, what his plans are for the cartels, and how he may react to the “judicial insurrection” of judges blocking his deportation orders.

Trump also revealed his game-changing plans for AI and American energy, why he’s not “negotiating” with Europe or the world, whether Putin or Zelenskyy has been easier to deal with, and why he believes Glenn will “be surprised” by congressional Republicans soon.

This interview is available exclusively on BlazeTV until Thursday. Join BlazeTV and then head over and watch it.

Nancy Mace constructed the slippery slope that led to transgender chaos



Nancy Mace is the worst kind of feminist: attractive, well endowed, God-fearing, and ruled by blind ambition and a lack of self-awareness.

Men find this type of feminist difficult to resist. I know I do.

Sexually liberated and twice divorced, Mace is the kind of woman who will joke about skipping morning sex with her boyfriend while acting as a keynote speaker at a prayer breakfast.

Feminists do not build healthy communities or nations.

Mace, the South Carolina Republican congresswoman, doesn’t know what she doesn’t know, and she has no interest in finding out.

She fancies herself as an opponent of transgender rights. She strategically branded herself as the primary critic of Delaware Democratic Rep. Sarah McBride, the first man to pretend to be a woman in Congress. In early January, Mace traveled to Delaware to speak to Republican politicians about a transgender bathroom ban.

It’s good marketing. Being against mentally ill men in women’s bathrooms and sporting events is a common-sense and popular position with most Americans.

Monday, Mace posted a bold statement on X, marking her territory as a protector of women’s accomplishments and spaces.

“I didn’t fight like hell to become the first woman to graduate from the Citadel just for some man in a miniskirt to take away that achievement. Protecting women’s accomplishments isn’t a political talking point for me — it’s personal.”

She posted the statement on top of a pic of her decked out in her Citadel uniform.

Mace has no idea that she’s the Slippery Dope. Her 1996 invasion of the Citadel, an all-male military school for 153 years, paved the road for transgender men to invade women’s bathrooms, sports, and spaces.

Her desire to be a cadet alongside young men is directly tied to transvestites wanting to shower, swim, and poop alongside young women. Mace helped build the slippery slope that normalized Sarah McBride.

Mace has no clue. She joined the Citadel to satisfy two people — herself and her dad, Emory Mace, a retired brigadier general. A 1963 Citadel grad, Emory Mace came out of retirement to serve as commandant of cadets in 1997. He personally oversaw his daughter’s cadetship, shaking her hand on stage in 1999 when she became the first woman to graduate from the Citadel.

So all it took for Nancy Mace to break a glass ceiling and make history was for the military school to lower its physical requirements and install a dad to chaperone his daughter.

Add "spoiled" and "entitled" to the adjectives describing Mace.

A supporter of same-sex marriage and the LGBTQ, Mace is a phony Christian conservative with the obvious goal of destroying the patriarchy.

She’s the second coming of Nikki Haley, only with a prettier face, a big chest, and the backing of woke military leaders.

Mace has seemingly set her sights on the Palmetto State’s governor’s mansion, Haley’s home from 2011 to 2017. Yesterday, during a press conference, Mace attacked state Attorney General Alan Wilson, the other front-runner in the 2026 race.

She said Wilson shouldn’t “even be thinking of running for governor” and that he’s done nothing for “women and girls.” She promised to take Wilson out. “I will personally make sure that he is never governor of South Carolina.”

Like Haley, Mace wants to use South Carolina’s governor’s chair as the launch pad for her presidential aspirations. Like any good feminist, Mace’s life purpose is to break “glass ceilings,” which is code for destroying the patriarchy and promoting gender chaos.

There’s no such thing as a good feminist. An ounce of feminism creates a pound of problems. Feminists do not build healthy communities or nations. They destroy whatever is in their path for self-aggrandizement. Nancy Mace made history. She doesn’t care that she weakened the Citadel and opened the door for the destruction of spaces and institutions designed to nurture and develop men and women separately.

My 2025 is dedicated to helping Christian men and women identify who are our legitimate allies. It’s not feminists or supporters of feminism. Nancy Mace passes herself off as a patriotic, God-fearing conservative. She’s none of those things.

Suspect in New Orleans massacre identified as former US Army soldier who deployed to Afghanistan



Authorities have identified the now-deceased suspect in the New Year's Day New Orleans massacre as 42-year-old Shamsud-Din Jabbar of Texas. The FBI has also indicated that they do not believe Jabbar was acting "solely alone" and are pursuing leads into Jabbar's friends and associates currently.

Jabbar reportedly served in the Army on active duty from 2007 through 2015 and then in the reserves from 2015 through 2020. He was reportedly a human resources and information technology specialist who deployed once to Afghanistan from February 2009 through January 2010.

Officials are still piecing together information about the attack, but they indicated that they found a series of recordings made by Jabbar that were apparently made while he was driving from his home in Texas to Louisiana, where he committed his heinous crimes. In the videos, Jabbar reportedly talked about his decision to join ISIS and apparently referenced several dreams he had that led him to align with the infamous terror group.

Earlier in the day Wednesday, FBI officials confirmed that Jabbar had an ISIS flag on him at the time of the attack. Although the FBI has now confirmed that this is being investigated as an act of terrorism, the first public statement made by the FBI mysteriously and flatly stated that this was "not a terrorist event."

According to divorce documents obtained by CNN, Jabbar had been working as a real estate agent and claimed in 2022 to be suffering from severe financial troubles, including a potential imminent house foreclosure.

Meanwhile, the death toll from the attack has now risen to 15, according to the New Orleans Coroner's office. It was not immediately clear if the change in the death toll was due to inaccurate initial information, or whether additional people had succumbed to injuries throughout the day.

In a statement, president-elect Donald Trump promised that the incoming Trump administration will support the city of New Orleans, saying that "our hearts are with all of the innocent victims and their loved ones, including the brave officers of the New Orleans Police Department."

Outgoing President Joe Biden is also expected to address the nation Wednesday night regarding the terror attack.

One of the nation's largest Christian radio stations will close its doors in a month



Long-running Atlanta radio station 104.7 The Fish, which is one of the largest Christian radio stations in the country, will go off the air on February 1st, 2025, according to WSB-TV.

The station, which has been running in its current format for almost a quarter century, is one of the largest contemporary Christian radio stations in the country. The station is shutting down because the station's current owners, Salem Communications, sold the station as part of a package deal with two other stations to the Educational Media Foundation, which also runs a series of Christian radio stations.

In a statement provided by Salem to the media, interim CEO David Santrella said, "Upon the closing of these three transactions, we will have transformed and significantly improved Salem’s balance sheet and capital structure. With the exception of its revolving line of credit, Salem will have no outstanding debt. Salem will also benefit from working with an important new strategic investor that is expected to bring significant new opportunities to the company as well as offer incredible expertise in the area of digital media."

Salem executives also expressed hope that EMF would continue some form of Christian programming, saying that EMF had been a "delightful" partner during the sale. However, a number of on-air personalities at The Fish have already taken to social media to announce that they will not be retained when the new station opens in February. The hosts of the popular Kevin and Taylor Show confirmed that their show was ending but praised EMF, saying, "We've heard nothing but good things about the company who is taking over," and likewise expressing hope that Christian programming would continue on 104.7 in the new year.

After FBI agent confidently stated New Orleans attack was 'not a terrorist event,' ISIS flag reportedly found in his truck



Multiple sources are reporting that the attacker in the deadly New Orleans attack that killed 10 people and injured dozens more was carrying an ISIS flag at the time of the attack, leading many to question how and why an FBI special agent confidently declared that the attack was "not a terrorist event" early on in the investigation.

Witnesses indicated that the attacker was flying a "large black flag" from his truck at the time of the attack, which would be consistent with a description of the ISIS flag. The FBI has since confirmed that the flag was, indeed, an ISIS flag, leading many to harshly criticize the FBI's initial response to the attack, which flatly denied any connection to terrorism.

In the earliest public comments after the attack was reported, New Orleans mayor Latoya Cantrell told the media that the attack was a "terrrorist attack." However, she was immediately contradicted by FBI Special Agent Althea Duncan, who confidently declared that this was "not a terrorist event," a public posture that the FBI maintained for a significant amount of time in spite of apparently being aware that the suspect had driven a truck packed with explosives into a crowd while flying an ISIS flag.

The FBI has since changed gears and acknowledged that it is investigating the incident as a terrorist attack. The FBI has not immediately responded to a request for comment as to why one of their agents publicly declared that the attack was not terrorism in spite of such a significant piece of evidence that would suggest a terrorist motivation.

The response drew harsh criticism on Twitter from numerous prominent conservatives, who viewed the apparent whitewashing of the suspect's support for ISIS as evidence of rot within the FBI.

Others criticized the FBI's ongoing failure to address how such a high-ranking FBI official on the scene could have made such a remark:

Officials have not yet identified the suspect, but they have indicated that he was a U.S. citizen who was born in Texas. Other than confirming that he died at the scene, no further information has yet been released.

FAA expands ban on drones in New Jersey for reasons that remain unclear



The mystery surrounding the apparent sudden proliferation of drone activity in New Jersey deepened Tuesday when the FAA announced that it was expanding its list of areas in New Jersey where drone flights are banned, adding another nine towns to the restricted area.

The mystery regarding the drones began in November, when widespread reports of heavy and unexplained drone activity began circulating online, with numerous viral videos showing drones hovering over people's homes with no apparent justification.

The reports led to an FBI investigation, which claimed that the drones presented "no threat to public safety" and furthermore claimed that the majority of reports it investigated were actually airplanes, stars, or "authorized drones."

Nonetheless, the FAA began issuing a series of restrictions on drone flights in various locations in New Jersey for reasons that can best be described as vague and evasive. A total of 57 such restrictions have been issued since the start of the controversy. In the largest such restriction, the FAA announced in mid-December that it was banning drone flights for one month over two dozen New Jersey towns. The stated reason for these restrictions was that they were requested by "federal security partners" in order to protect "critical New Jersey infrastructure," but no further elaboration was given.

The answers are even less clear regarding the new restrictions. When NJ.com attempted to find a reason for the restrictions, they described their efforts to get answers thusly:

It is unclear why the new restrictions were deemed necessary. The FAA referred questions to the federal Department of Homeland Security, which referred those questions back to the FAA. An FBI spokeswoman referred questions on the restrictions to the FAA.

The new restrictions cover the towns of Atlantic Highlands, Belford, Fort Hancock in Middletown, Highlands, Linden, Paulsboro, Port Reading in Woodbridge, South Kearny, and Westville.

The FAA did not immediately return a request for comment on the reason for the restrictions.

Illegal immigrant arrested after shooting off his own finger in botched attempted murder



An illegal immigrant from Honduras was arrested in Haines City, Florida on Sunday after he allegedly attempted to kill his ex-girlfriend's new boyfriend and instead accidentally shot off his own finger.

According to WFLA-TV, the attack occurred around 5:45pm on Sunday. Police say that the suspect, Jervin Omar Mendieta Romero, had been going through a "difficult separation" from his girlfriend of 20 years, who apparently broke up with him around four months ago. Police say that since the breakup, Romero had been sending his ex a series of increasingly violent and threatening text messages, including at least one in which he included a picture of himself holding a firearm.

Romero reportedly drove to his girlfriend's house on Sunday, demanding entry. When his ex and her new boyfriend refused to admit him, Romero removed a screen window from the rear of the house and entered the house forcibly, whereupon he confronted the new boyfriend angrily and opened fire, hitting him in the hand, chest, shoulder, and head. According to police, the new boyfriend miraculously survived, but Romero somehow "blasted off" his own ring finger during the fusillade, whereupon he dropped the gun and fled from the scene on foot.

According to WFLA, police found Romero after a "multi-agency search" that involved Haines City Police Department, Lake Alfred Police Department, and the Polk County Sheriff’s Office. He was reportedly found by a Polk County K9 while hiding in the trees some miles from the scene of the crime.

WFLA also reported that Romero was not legally permitted to be in the country, and it is presently unclear how long he has been living in the United States. Police were reportedly involved in another trespassing incident earlier in 2024 involving Romero and his ex-girlfriend, but for reasons that are not clear, Romero was not deported following that incident.

Romero has been charged with attempted first-degree murder, burglary with assault and battery, and numerous other crimes in connection with the incident.

At least 10 killed, dozens more injured in potential 'terrorist attack' in New Orleans



In the early hours of Wednesday morning, a man plowed a pickup truck into a large crowd of partygoers on Bourbon Street in New Orleans, causing terror and sending at least 30 others to the hospital with serious injuries. The attacker then reportedly exited the vehicle and began firing a weapon. New Orleans mayor LaToya Cantrell declared the incident a "terrorist attack" in a Wednesday morning briefing; however, the FBI disputed that characterization, saying that their agency has not yet confirmed this.

The attack reportedly occurred around 3:15 am local time at the intersection of Bourbon Street and Iberville.

In a Wednesday morning update to the media, New Orleans police superintendent Anne Kirkpatrick said, "It did involve a man driving a pickup truck down Bourbon Street at a very fast pace, and it was very intentional behavior. This man was trying to run over as many people as he possibly could... It was not a DUI situation. This was more complex and more serious based on the information we have right now."

Kirkpatrick also indicated that the FBI has taken over the investigation into this incident.

Police have not yet released any information regarding the attacker, including whether he is in custody, deceased, or still at large. Witnesses at the scene did tell local television station WWL-TV that they witnessed officers returning fire after the suspect exited the vehicle and began firing into the crowd. New Orleans police did confirm that two officers were injured in the attack, but it was not immediately clear if they were injured by the truck, gunfire, or both. The extent and seriousness of their injuries were also not clear.

This is a developing story and will be updated as events warrant.

Chinese state-sponsored hackers compromise Treasury Department computers in 'major' incident



On Monday, Treasury Department officials admitted to lawmakers that state-sponsored Chinese hackers had compromised their computers and stolen documents in what they called a "major incident," according to Reuters.

In a letter sent to members of Congress, Treasury Department officials said that the hackers "gained access to a key used by [a third-party] vendor to secure a cloud-based service used to remotely provide technical support for Treasury Departmental Offices (DO) end users. With access to the stolen key, the threat actor was able to override the service’s security, remotely access certain Treasury DO user workstations, and access certain unclassified documents maintained by those users."

The vendor in question was Georgia-based BeyondTrust, which notified Treasury Department officials of the leak on December 8th. The letter further went on to claim that "Based on available indicators, the incident has been attributed to a China state-sponsored Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) actor."

The Chinese government implausibly denied responsibility for the hack, saying, "China has always opposed all forms of hacker attacks."

This is not even the first time this year that a major Chinese state-sponsored espionage/hacking operation has been revealed. Earlier this year, the CCP-sponsored Salt Typhoon campaign successfully gained access to the wireless networks of Verizon, AT&T, and others. This hack allowed the Chinese government to read the text messages of an unknown number of Americans.

Disturbingly, although the breach was revealed in October, the FBI said earlier this month that they still have not been able to evict the Chinese hackers from these networks and further said that it is "impossible to predict a time frame on when we’ll have full eviction."

The Treasury Department letter claimed that the affected service has been taken offline and that the hackers no longer have access to the Treasury Department documents. It also promised that an investigation is underway.

NYPD condemns 'Cowardly' would-be NYC shooting victims who used mother as human shield



Lately, numerous potential victims of violent crimes have resorted to self-defense, often with remarkable bravery, to protect themselves from harm. On the other hand, the intended targets of a brazen public shooting in a Bronx convenience store are being condemned for seeking their safety behind a 40-year-old mother who was present with her 12-year-old daughter.

According to WCBS-TV, the shooting occurred just before 5 p.m. Monday afternoon. According to police, the shooters were two males who have not yet been identified or apprehended. They were apparently shooting at a group of people who were standing outside the G&W Grocery. When the shooting began, the intended victims ran inside the store for safety, whereupon one of them grabbed a 40-year-old mother who was present in the store and used her as a human shield.

The mother was shot once in the stomach, and her 12-year-old daughter was also shot in the leg.

Thankfully, there were no fatalities in the incident, but six people were injured, including the mother and her daughter.

NYPD Chief of Patrol John Chell condemned the shooting but also condemned the "cowardly" response from the would-be victims. According to the NY Post, Chell said, "[It’s] a brazen and heartless attack on innocent New Yorkers and cowardly intended victims who used a mother as a shield."

Chell also indicated that the motive for the shooting is yet unknown. The suspects are still at large, and no description has been released other than what clothes they were wearing at the time of the shooting. Presumably, those suspects have by now changed those clothes, making this information less than useful.

Several area residents indicated that the incident has shaken their faith in the safety of their neighborhood.

Area resident Darnell Smith told WCBS, "I can't walk in my own neighborhood with people shooting and carrying on like that. It's crazy."
