Ghoulish: CNN Pundit Says ‘I F*cked Up’ After Blaming Trump for DC Air Disaster.

CNN political commentator Bakari Sellers is apologizing after he attempted to quickly connect President Donald J. Trump to the tragic mid-air collision near Ronald Reagan National Airport in Arlington, Virginia, Wednesday night. Following the deadly crash—in which it is feared 64 civilian passengers and crew, along with three military personnel, perished—Sellers posted a screenshot on social media of a Democratic Party press release alleging President Trump froze air traffic controller hirings last week.

“8 days ago,” Sellers wrote on X (formerly Twitter) with the Democratic Party press release screenshotted below. Despite the Democrats’ and Sellers’s claims, the hiring freeze instituted by Trump excludes U.S. military personnel and positions related to immigration enforcement, national security, and public safety. The latter includes air traffic controllers.

Additionally, there is currently no indication that an air traffic controller error caused the collision or that rushed hirings would have changed the events resulting in the deadly crash.


After receiving an avalanche of pushback, Sellers deleted his post and later followed up with a mea culpa. “I deleted the post because timing matters. Politics at this point does not. I f**ked up, I own that,” Sellers wrote on X, continuing: “I am very prayerful but I’m also very frustrated upset and disturbed with where we are as a country. I recognize, and I will do better.”

“The only thing that matters is rescuing the survivors, and ensuring this never happens again,” the CNN commentator concluded.

It was confirmed this morning that there are no survivors.

CNN has not commented on the matter beyond stating that the corporate news network stands by Sellers’s public apology. The National Pulse has previously reported that CNN has suffered a significant loss of viewership over the last year. This has led to layoffs and the departure of several long-time correspondents and other on-air talent.

Over 7,400 Request ‘New Media’ Press Credentials for Trump White House in Just 24 Hours.

The White House press office claims to have received over 7,400 requests for press credentials after announcing its “new media” seat in the briefing room, which is open to alternative media, podcasters, and online influencers. The swarm of applications came within the first 24 hours of the announcement, which was made during the first press briefing given by President Donald J. Trump’s press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, on January 27.

Leavitt described the new seat, saying it would be open to those who do not have permanent press credentials for the White House and would be rotated among applicants who qualify to attend White House briefings.

Under previous administrations, the White House Correspondents’ Association traditionally acted as gatekeepers for briefings, holding 49 permanent seats in the briefing room. Trump’s move is a reversal of the Biden-Harris regime-era policy that revoked press passes to journalists who did not meet various credential requirements.

“This White House believes strongly in the First Amendment, so it’s why our team will work diligently to restore the press passes of the 440 journalists whose passes were wrongly revoked by the previous administration,” Leavitt said during her briefing.

Leavitt served as national press secretary for Trump’s 2024 presidential campaign and is the youngest White House press secretary in history at just 27 years old.

Driver Prosecuted for ‘Don’t Be a C*nt’ Bumper Sticker.

Georgia Venables, 29, appeared at Chester Magistrates Court in England to face charges related to an allegedly offensive bumper sticker displayed on her vehicle. Prosecutors allege that Venables, residing in Prenton Place, displayed language deemed threatening or abusive on her car. The incident reportedly occurred on January 8 when Venables was observed driving with a sticker on her car reading “Don’t be a c**t.”

Venables has pled not guilty to charges of causing harassment, alarm, or distress. As the case progresses, she has been granted unconditional bail and is expected to make another court appearance later this year.

In a separate incident, law enforcement in Hampshire pulled over a driver for speeding on the M27 motorway at 118 mph, more than double the national speed limit. According to police reports, this occurred on Christmas Day, when traffic was notably light. The driver, whose identity has not been disclosed, was operating a black BMW adorned with various stickers. Among these was one that read: “My driving scares me too.”

Last year, anti-mass migration activist Sam Melia was imprisoned for running a Telegram channel where people could download stickers bearing slogans such as ‘Reject white guilt’ and ‘It’s OK to be white.’ Sentencing judge Tom Bayliss  said that “this kind of material is corrosive to our society,” while the local police force warned, “Those that seek to bring hatred to our communities through actions such as stickering will be identified and brought to justice.”

Far-Left Journo Admits ‘No Country’ Can Deal With ‘An Influx of Millions’ of Migrants.

Far-left Al Jazeera journalist Julia Galiano unwittingly admits that no country can adequately deal with the negative consequences of mass immigration while defending Mexico’s resistance to accepting illegal immigrants being mass deported by U.S. President Donald J. Trump. Galiano—who reports from Cuba under its authoritarian and anti-American communist regime—contends Mexico is unable to cope with the economic and societal impact the sudden influx of deportees will have.

“Mexico cannot cope—I’m not sure any country can—but Mexico can’t cope with, like, a sudden influx of millions of people. I mean, as much as [Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum] wants to ’embrace’ them—to use her word—when they come back and make them feel welcome,” Galiano said on The Take, a daily news podcast hosted by Al Jazeera. “It all sounds very nice when you’re listening to it. But the reality of that is just completely unsustainable.”

BUSTING BUDGETS & SUPPRESSING WAGES.

While Galiano intended her remarks as a criticism of President Trump’s mass deportation policies and their impact on Mexico, she unintentionally echoed the very argument behind his White House’s massive immigration crackdown. Under former President Joe Biden, millions of illegal immigrants were allowed to enter the United States through the abuse of Temporary Protected Status (TPS), federal immigration parole programs, and lack of border enforcement. The influx of illegal immigrants placed unprecedented strain on federal, state, and local resources, while also fueling a spike in violent gang-related crime.

“A lot of these people have lived in the U.S. for decades. They have lives there, they have families; they’re good standing citizens,” Galiano bizarrely claims regarding those being removed through Trump’s immigration enforcement actions. In fact, no U.S. citizens are being deported to Mexico—only those who unlawfully reside in the country.

Galiano goes on to acknowledge that much of the mass immigration into the U.S. is economically driven, with individuals risking the journey to find higher-paying jobs. The National Pulse has previously reported that mass immigration depresses American wages, with most immigrants being paid less than native-born workers despite making more than they would in their home countries.

Anti-Trump General Gets His Comeuppance.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has revoked the security clearance and detail of rabid anti-Trump, woke former Gen. Mark Milley—and is investigating whether he can have him demoted.

Back up: Milley served as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs under Trump. After he turned on the 45th president towards the end of his first term [we’ll get to this later], Joe Biden decided to keep him at his post.

Milley pays the price: Newly-minted Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth will reportedly announce he is “immediately pulling” Milley’s security detail and security clearance.

  • Additionally, he will direct the new acting Inspector General to review if enough evidence exists to demote Milley, stripping him of a star based on his actions to “undermine the chain of command” during Trump’s first term.
  • A portrait of Milley was removed from the Pentagon last week, less than two hours after Trump was sworn in.

How did Milley undermine the chain of command? I’m glad you asked. According to a book by acclaimed author Bob Woodward, Gen. Milley, on at least two occasions, broke the chain of command and called the Chinese Communist Party in the final months of Trump’s first term — without Trump’s knowledge — to assure them the administration had no plans to strike them.

  • Back in 2023, Trump called it “an act so egregious that, in times gone by, the punishment would have been DEATH!”

Zoom out: In his final days in office, Joe Biden handed Milley a blanket pardon, shielding him from any potential charges of treason.

Ex-Dem Senator Bob Menendez Sentenced to 11 Years for Working as a Foreign Agent.

Former Democratic Senator Bob Menendez has received an 11-year prison sentence from Judge Sidney Stein, marking the conclusion of his trial related to a significant bribery and foreign influence operation. The ruling follows Menendez’s conviction on July 24 for 16 charges, including bribery, extortion, conspiracy, and obstruction of justice. Menendez, aged 71, became the first U.S. senator found guilty of working as a foreign agent.

Prosecutors had initially sought a 15-year sentence for Menendez, highlighting the severity and duration of the corruption involved. His 11-year term is believed to be the harshest criminal penalty a Senator has ever received.

Menendez faced accusations during the trial of accepting over $100,000 in bribes in the form of gold bars and cash. The trial, which lasted for nine weeks, revealed details of the senator’s activities involving the governments of Egypt and Qatar. His wife, Nadine Menendez, is also implicated in the scheme. She will face trial beginning March 18, accused of receiving payments for a non-existent job.

Before sentencing, prosecutors stated that the senator betrayed the trust of the United States and New Jersey by permitting his office to be used for bribery. Menendez’s co-defendants—Wael Hana and Fred Daibes—have been sentenced to eight and seven years in prison, respectively.

Trump Ends Protected Status for Venezuelan Migrants.

President Donald J. Trump is endng  the “temporary protected status” (TPS) granted to numerous Venezuelan migrants residing in the United States. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced the revocation of these deportation protections on Tuesday, impacting more than 600,000 Venezuelan nationals.

Former President Joe Biden initially extended TPS for Venezuelans for an additional 18 months shortly before Trump assumed office on January 20. TPS is a designation that allows foreign citizens to remain in the U.S. when conditions in their home country, such as ongoing armed conflict or environmental disasters, prevent a safe return. Still, its extension to Venezuelans has been controversial in light of the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang’s rapid growth in the U.S.

Meanwhile, Trump issued an executive order titled “Protecting the American People Against Invasion” that ordered a review of current TPS designations shortly after being inaugurated as the 47th President of the United States—putting into motion the reversal of the TPS designations. Under the Biden government, TPS designations were granted to citizens of several countries, including El Salvador, Sudan, Ukraine, and Venezuela.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) justified these protections for Venezuelans by citing an ongoing severe humanitarian crisis. They referred to the political and economic situations under Nicolás Maduro’s government as inhumane.

Former POLICE Have Been Implicated in Britain’s Rape and Grooming Gang Scandal.

Two former police officers have been arrested after being accused of misconduct in public office and sexually abusing children in an English town where a Muslim child grooming gang operated for over a decade. The ex-officers, who had not been named as of the time of publication, have been taken into custody amid an investigation into child sexual exploitation in the rape gang hotspot of Rotherham, England.

The arrests follow complaints from four individuals who allege they were victims of abuse connected to two ex-South Yorkshire Police constables. The offenses reportedly occurred during both on-duty and off-duty periods.

The case is part of Operation Linden, an extensive inquiry launched after a 2014 report uncovered systemic child abuse in Rotherham. The report, by Professor Alexis Jay, identified that at least 1,400 children fell victim to abuse, mainly by Pakistani heritage men, from 1997 to 2013.

The arrest of the two former officers comes as Asghar Bostan, a convicted grooming gang rapist who operated in Rotherham, may receive parole despite violating his license conditions. Bostan, sentenced to nine years in prison in 2018, was released just four years later on parole but was returned to prison last year when he was spotted near the home of one of his victims.

Many are putting pressure on Britain’s ruling Labour Party to launch a national inquiry into grooming gang activity and the officials’ role in covering it up across the country.

Earlier this month, the government agreed to local inquiries in five locations, with a budget of just over $12 million. However, rape gangs are known to have operated in around 50 towns and cities at least. Moreover, there are concerns that local inquiries commissioned by the same local authorities that turned a blind eye to the gangs’ activities will not be sufficiently aggressive in identifying wrongdoers.

‘African Type’ Suspect in Killing of Teen Boy Admits Guilt.

One of the suspects in the killing of a 14-year-old boy named Elias has confessed to police in Paris, France, just days after he stabbed the teen, who later died of his wounds. Authorities describe the suspects in the killing of the young teen as “African” and “West Indian” types, possibly motivated by antisemitism.

The suspects were arrested just hours after the stabbing, which took place on Friday, January 24. The pair are said to have been born in the 14th arrondissement of Paris, where the stabbing took place, and both have French citizenship.

The suspects, aged 16 and 17, allegedly attempted to steal a cell phone from the victim and stabbed him when he resisted. Elias died the following day in a local hospital.

However, some French media report there may be a deeper motive for the attack. The magazine Entrevue has stated that Elias was known to be Jewish and that the attack may have been a result of antisemitism. According to the magazine, Elias is the son of a surgeon, and they claim to have received information that both his Jewish faith and his family’s wealth may have played a factor in why the two suspects targeted him.

Antisemitism is a major problem in France, with many Jews fleeing the country due to high levels of hatred and violence in multicultural cities like Paris.

Since the October 7, 2023 attacks, antisemitism has dramatically increased to the point where French Israelis have called on Jews in France to pack up and move to Israel for their own safety.

UK Population SKYROCKETING Due to Mass Migration, Report.

Mass migration is set to account for all growth of the United Kingdom‘s population. According to new figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS), Britain’s population is projected to grow by nearly five million within the next decade, mostly due to immigration.

Estimates indicate the population could rise to 72.5 million by 2032, marking a 7.3 percent increase from 2022. This compares with 6.1 percent growth over the previous decade.

Net immigration is expected to account for most of this increase, with an estimated 4.9 million people contributing to the population rise. The ONS data forecasts that both births and deaths will be approximately equal by 2032, and there will be an increase of 1.7 million retirees.

Between mid-2022 and mid-2032, the United Kingdom is projected to see 6.8 million births and an equal number of deaths, with 9.9 million people immigrating and 4.9 million emigrating out of the country.

The ruling leftist Labour government claims it wants to reduce migration levels but refuses to implement an “arbitrary” cap.

Nigel Farage, leader of the Reform Party, commented on the new forecast, saying that the statistics show that the figures will remain the same regardless of whether there is a Labour or Conservative government. “Our quality of life, for all of us, is diminishing directly as a result of the population explosion,” Farage said, adding that the faster immigration rises, the poorer individual Britons get.

Reform has surged in recent polling, with one poll putting them in the lead nationally, ahead of the ruling Labour Party and the Conservatives.
