Former CNN news anchor Chris Cuomo was unable to control himself during an interview with TikToker Baylen Dupree, known for her work raising awareness for Tourette’s Syndrome, breaking into giggles on multiple occasions.
Dupree was interviewed on NewsNation’s “Cuomo” to discuss her experience living with Tourette’s syndrome, detailing how people have told her, among other things, that her parents “deserve to die in a car accident” because they believe she was faking her condition. She also mentioned how her condition has led to police calls due to threats on her home. Dupree was diagnosed in 2018 but exhibited signs from early childhood.
However, while explaining her experiences, Dupree repeatedly used profanity and made offensive gestures towards host Cuomo, such as stating, “Go f*ck yourself, Chris” and “butter your own biscuit fat ass,” causing the news anchor to start laughing.
Tourettes Syndrome affects up to 1.4 million children and adults in the U.S. alone, per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Tourette’s is known to worsen under high-stress or anxiety-inducing situations, such as public appearances.

Editor’s Notes
Behind-the-scenes political intrigue exclusively for Pulse+ subscribers.
Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) was conspicuously present standing behind Hunter Biden while the president’s son announced to the press he would not attend his scheduled deposition before House Republicans, defying a Congressional subpoena. While the presence of the California Democrat causedconfusionfor some observers, Congressional rules actually mandated his attendance.
Biden held his press conference in an outdoor space referred to as the “Senate Swamp.” The space is among several outdoor areas – such as the House Triangle – used by Members of Congress for press events. Non-Members can also reserve the spaces for use but only with the sponsorship and physical attendance of a member. Rep. Swalwell has confirmed he was the member who reserved the space for Hunter Biden.
“There is absolutely zero evidence Hunter or his father acted corruptly,” Rep. Swalwell said regarding his attendance and support for Biden. He added: “So I’m not going to sit quietly and let MAGA Republicans do Trump’s bidding in Congress.”
Swalwell’s decision to reserve the space for Hunter Biden may have unintended legal consequences for the Congressmen, however. Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) – a member of House Judiciary along with Swalwell – suggested the California Democrat may have aided and abetted a crime by assisting Hunter Biden defy a Congressional subpoena. “He’s a member of this committee, he’s aware of it,” Issa said. Adding Swalwell’s action was “at minimum an ethics violation.”
In 2020 it was revealed Swalwell had carried on a sexual relationship with a California-based Democrat fundraiser named Christine Fang. The woman, whose actual name was Fang Fang, was exposed as a Chinese intelligence operative who was targeting U.S. elected officials as part of the Chinese Communist Party influence operation.

Encounters at the U.S. southern border once again surpassed 10,000 in a single day on Tuesday, according to Customs and Border Protection (CBP) sources. Despite being lower than the record-breaking 12,000 in one day last week, the numbers continue to strain Border Patrol agents. The Tucson and Del Rio sectors reported encountering 3,000 and 2,700 migrants, respectively, each surpassing their capacities by over 200%. Agents have also been met with groups of more than 100 migrants at various locations, indicating an ongoing trend orchestrated by Transnational Criminal Organizations, a CBP agent suggested.
Lawmakers have been briefed on the daily release of 5,000 illegal immigrants into the U.S., to be added to the 1,600 migrants who are processed and released through humanitarian parole each day. Migrants arriving at ports of entry have reportedly come from over 150 countries. A notable increase was observed on Tuesday, with more than 190 Chinese nationals encountered in the San Diego sector, and over 120 nationals from Guinea encountered in the Tucson sector.
The surge in people crossing the border comes after a record year with more than 2.4 million encounters and high figures in September and October. The unseasonal upsurge continues against the trend of a drop during the winter months. As this is happening, lawmakers are debating the White House’s funding request for border measures, alongside aid for Ukraine and Israel. This new request includes $14 billion for border funding, covering migrant care, expedited removal costs, and support for overwhelmed cities.

House Oversight Chairman James Comer (R-KY) and House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) announced they will initiate contempt of Congress proceedings against Hunter Biden after he failed to comply with a subpoena to appear for a deposition on Wednesday. “Hunter Biden… defied lawful subpoenas and we will now initiate contempt of Congress proceedings,” Reps. Comer and Jordan said in a statement, adding: “We will not provide special treatment because his last name is Biden.”
Hunter Biden had been slatted to appear for a deposition as part of the ongoing House impeachment inquiry into allegations of public corruption by his father, President Joe Biden. While Hunter Biden did appear on Capitol Hill, it wasn’t for the deposition. Speaking on the Senate side of the U.S. Capitol – conveniently outside the jurisdiction of the House Sergeant-at-Arms – a defiant Hunter Biden announced he would not appear for deposition and instead demanded a public hearing.
“Let me state as clearly as I can; my father was not financially involved in my business…I am here to testify at a public hearing today to answer any of the Committee’s legitimate questions,” Hunter Biden said.
“Today the House will vote on an impeachment inquiry resolution to strengthen our legal case in the courts as we face obstruction from the White House and witnesses,” Comer and James said after Hunter Biden failed to appear for his deposition. The House impeachment leaders continued: “Today’s obstruction by Hunter Biden reinforces the need for a formal vote. President Biden and his family must be held accountable for their corruption and obstruction.”
Should a majority of the House find Hunter Biden to be in criminal contempt, Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) will then send a report of the contempt charges to the Department of Justice (DOJ). The law states the DOJ must bring the charges before a grand jury for consideration. Even if the grand jury hands down an indictment, it is ultimately up to the DOJ whether to or not to move forward with a prosecution.

Vice News’s former MENA (Middle East and North Africa) Managing Editor endorsed October’s Hamas attacks in an Arabic-language article. Badar Salem claimed the October 7th terror raid against Israel was lawful resistance on Vice’s Arabic website.
“UN General Assembly Resolution 2649, adopted in 1970, recognizes the legitimacy of the struggle against domination and occupation in the context of self-determination,” Salem insisted. “Within this framework, what Hamas and Palestinian resistance movements did/are doing against Israeli targets is within international law, which clearly recognizes the legitimacy of resistance movements defending themselves against the occupation.”
Hamas’s “Israeli targets” included children, women, and the elderly. Some of these were killed while others were dragged back to Gaza as hostages.
Salem argued Israel, not Hamas, was responsible for these killings, however. “When an occupying force faces resistance from the occupied inhabitants, this is not considered the occupied inhabitants’ attack, but a reaction against the occupation itself,” she argued.

Tesla has disclosed the latest update to their Optimus humanoid robot, demonstrating its enhanced dexterity that enables it to perform detail-oriented tasks such as cooking eggs. The improvements found in Optimus Gen 2, including the better actuators and sensors, have contributed to a 30 percent increase in speed compared to the first model, the company said. Moreover, the second iteration weighs 10kg less and boasts significantly improved balance, a leap forward in Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s plan to automate all physical labor and advance manufacturing processes.
Musk’s vision for the Optimus robot is a “general-purpose, bi-pedal, autonomous humanoid robot capable of performing unsafe, repetitive, or boring tasks,” with implications that could potentially surpass the significance of Tesla’s electric vehicle business. The CEO stated in 2021, “Essentially in the future, physical work will be a choice,” highlighting potential implications for the economy grounded on labor.
Moreover, Musk revealed his belief that the Optimus robot is integral to Tesla’s transformation to a $10 trillion company, up from its current $750 billion market value. The latest Optimus model signifies substantial progress, following a prototype revealed last year that could not walk unassisted. A commercial version of Optimus is expected to be ready for customers within three to five years, according to Musk. However, Tesla has not yet disclosed an official release date or set a price for the robot.

Just under one in five black Americans – 17 percent – have indicated that they will vote for Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election, representing a nine-point increase in support among black voters compared to 2020, according to a recent survey from GenForward.
The survey questioned nearly 3,500 people, including large numbers of black Americans. Pollsters found that another 20 percent of black voters said they would choose “someone else” other than Trump or President Joe Biden.
The incumbent President has hemorrhaged a staggering 28 points among black voters since 2020, in which he received 91 percent of the vote. As of this month, just 63 percent said they would support Biden.
The results of the survey have already terrified Democrats, with one long-term Democratic pollster, Cornell Belcher, forced to dismiss the results by declaring, “Polling numbers at this point are not predictive of the future.”
“It is possible, and we’ve seen it before, that a higher number, in particular Black men because of a kind of hypermasculinity of Donald Trump, could vote for Trump [again],” said Cathy Cohen, the far-left director of the GenForward project at the University of Chicago.

An emergency evacuation occurred at New York’s State Supreme Court Building on Wednesday afternoon after a brief fire caused by an unnamed individual set off fire alarms. The man was arrested for igniting documents within the courthouse, according to court spokesperson Al Baker. Firefighters arrived at the Lower Manhattan landmark shortly after 4 p.m. to extinguish a small blaze, resulting in a brief but visible haze spreading through the third and fourth-floor stairwell.
The historic courthouse, often recognizable from television shows and films like “Law & Order” and “Night Court,” has been the setting for former President Donald Trump’s civil business fraud trial for almost three months. The evacuation took place several hours after the day’s testimony had wrapped up.
No injuries were reported and those evacuated, including presiding Judge Arthur Engoron, could re-enter the building shortly after. Trump was not present in the courthouse during the evacuation. The legal teams in the trial are set to present their closing arguments in the coming month. The police are reportedly investigating.

Nearly half of young Americans between 18 and 29 either deny or have serious doubts about the full extent of the Holocaust, according to a recent Economist/YouGov survey, which noted that Holocaust denial has begun spreading throughout “all levels of education.”
One in five young people eligible to vote in the 2024 presidential election told pollsters they agreed with the statement “the Holocaust is a myth.” Nearly one-quarter agreed with the statement “the Holocaust has been exaggerated.”
Notably, another 30 percent said to pollsters they “did not know” whether the Holocaust was a myth. Only eight percent of people 30 to 44 years old similarly called the Holocaust a myth.
Almost one-third of young Americans at 28 percent believe that Jews “wield too much power” in the United States – five times more than those aged 65 and older. This includes 27 percent of black respondents, 19 percent of Hispanics, and 13 percent of white respondents.
Rabbi Abraham Cooper attributed the resurfacing of Antisemitism to “[a] generation brought up on social media—including and especially Tik Tok which leads to Shoah (Holocaust) denial and misappropriation of the Shoah, including by politicians—seems everyone is compared to Hitler. A generation with information glut but little perspective; no online librarian, no filters, little collective memory back to the 20th Century.”
“It is a perfect storm out there,” he added.

Republican 2024 presidential nominee outsider Vivek Ramaswamy railed against CNN host Abby Phillip on Wednesday night, detailing the reality of federal government agent involvement in Jan 6 and the Governor Whitmer kidnap hoax.
Phillip confronted Ramsmwamy on his claims, telling him a protestor who participated in the event – Alan Hostetter – used the GOP nominee hopeful’s comments during his sentence hearing last week.
“If you told me… back when I was a biotech CEO not steeped in this world… that January 6 was in any way an inside job, the subject of government entrapment. I would have told you that was crazy talk, fringe conspiracy theory nonsense. I can tell you know having gone somewhat deep in this: it’s not,” Ramaswamy replied.
“The reality is, we know that there were federal law enforcement agents in the field. We don’t know how many,” he continued before being quickly interrupted by the panicked CNN host. “We’ve seen multiple informants suggesting that there were, we know people who were FBI informants who were asked to do this,” Ramaswamy then countered.
“Why did they suppress footage of now what’s been released 200 hours of footage of shooting rubber bullets into that crowd, shooting tear gas into that crowd, you didn’t see that response before you saw what the response was to that, now you footage coming out of actually out the red carpet for Capitol police allowing people in,” he continued, with the audience beginning to applaud his remarks.
Whitmer Plot.
Ramaswamy then decided to enter uncharted territory for the mainstream media. He mentioned the potential Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) involvement in the Whitmer Plot, which supposedly saw an attempt to kidnap Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer.
“Three people who were in an alleged plot to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer were acquitted at the end of trial because it was entrapment – that is, government agents put them up to do something they otherwise wouldn’t have done,” he explained.
“They gave them credit cards with spending limits of up to $5,000, encouraged them to buy munitions, plan something they were otherwise unwilling to plan. So much so that… one of the jurors went to those defendants and apologized afterwards, gave them a hug… seeing what the government had put a poor guy up to.”
“These people were exploited… FBI agents putting them up to a kidnapping plot that we were told was true but was entrapment, same thing with the Capitol Police…” He added, “I think this is the civil libertarian issue of our time.”
WATCH:
Too bad for CNN, we’ll take the TRUTH on Jan. 6 mainstream. There is clear evidence that there was at the very least entrapment of peaceful protestors, similar to the fake Gretchen Whitmer kidnapping plot & countless other cases. The FBI won’t admit how many undercover officers… pic.twitter.com/SBuc6nnymg
