U.S. Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., whom President Trump called a "disgusting degenerate" over alleged insider trading and who went ballistic on a reporter last month when confronted about her role in the Capitol mayhem of Jan. 6, 2021, will reportedly not seek re-election in 2026.

Scott Wong of NBC News reports: "Multiple Democratic elected officials and top aides in CA and Washington tell NBCNews they believe Nancy Pelosi will choose not to seek re-election in 2026, after nearly four decades representing her San Francisco-based district."

"I think she's preparing to exit the stage," said a House Democratic leadership aide.

"I wish she would stay for 10 more years," said one House Democrat from California. "I think she's out. She's going to go out with Prop 50 overwhelmingly passing, and what a crowning achievement for her to do that."

NBC News added: "Fueling speculation that she might retire, Pelosi has made no outward move to counter two Democrats who have entered the district's primary, despite having raised more than $2 million this election cycle so far and sitting on a $1.5 million war chest, according to campaign records."

As WorldNetDaily reported, the former speaker of the House, now 85, was asked last month by Alison Steinberg of Lindell TV: "Congresswoman Pelosi, are you at all concerned that the January 6th Committee will find you liable for that?

A sign at a Halloween event in New York City over the weekend is raising eyebrows as it stated "Charlie Kirk neck massages," mocking the civil-rights leader assassinated by a bullet to the neck in Utah in September.

"DISGUSTING!" exclaimed political commentator Gunther Eagleman on X. "If you haven't realized just what we're up against yet, you'll never see it. Truly dark and disturbing stuff."

Others reacted with positive and negative comments, including:

"This isn't 'Halloween fun,' it's a full-blown character assassination dressed up as a joke. They mock, they smear, they normalize attacks on anyone who disagrees with them. This is exactly what we're up against, and the left doesn't play fair."

"The demons are running rampant in our world because they know that the time is coming to end them. It's terrifying to think this is just the beginning. We Christians must stay strong and pray without ceasing. God will win, He always does."

"While it might be disgusting to you and I, it may be humorous for others. If we did not have this technology, most would not know this sh** is happening. We must take the good with the bad to enjoy freedom of expression and free speech. Get rid of smart phones, period!"

"Proof that the rot of normalized violence is seeping into plain sight. This is cultural poison, and if we keep letting it slide as 'just politics,' we're sleepwalking into darker days."

"Dark and disturbing? More like standard halloween protest theater in NYC. It's designed to trigger, not to be taken literally as a threat."

"LMAO not 'dark and disturbing,' it's literally New York being New York, chill out. Conservatives act like sarcasm is witchcraft, bro it's Halloween not a cult."

An appeals court in Wisconsin has canceled a defamation trial for a Moms for Liberty activist who reacted to a school district's paid position of "social justice coordinator" with criticism.

The case on behalf of Scarlett Johnson was handled by the Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty, which took the case to the appeals level even before a trial, and obtained an order that it be dismissed.

WILL lawyer Luke Berg said, "Scarlett, like all of us, has the right to question and criticize her government. The defamation lawsuit against her was meritless and should have been promptly dismissed. We are pleased that the court agreed and that Scarlett can put this distraction behind her."

Johnson, in a statement released through her counsel, said, "Free speech belongs to every mom, dad, and citizen who demands answers and accountability from their government."

The state Court of Appeals had ruled that her statements were not defamation.

"We conclude that Johnson's statements do not constitute defamation, thus, we reverse and remand for the circuit court to enter summary judgment in Johnson's favor," the appeals court said.

WILL reported, "The initial lawsuit involved a defamation claim for run-of-the-mill social media posts on X and Facebook. The posts in question criticized a school district for having a 'social justice coordinator,' and described people who hold such positions as 'woke,' 'white savior[s]' with a 'god complex,' 'woke lunatics,' and 'bullies.'"

WILL pointed out such comments are pervasive on social media and in fact were more restrained than a lot of online speech.

The plaintiff who sued previously had held that title.

With the government shutdown in its 29th day and federal food assistance about to vanish, disturbing videos are emerging with one black woman threatening to hunt down, roast and eat white Americans, and another threatening to kill anyone who tries to stop looting.

In one video, a woman addresses "the white man" in the U.S., saying: "I'm here to let you know that we are going to eat regardless even if we have to hunt you animals down and roast and eat you, the delectable crackers and cheese.

"We will make it happen if we have to, trust and believe me. And if it takes this government shutdown for black people to finally come from under the government and understand that we don't need to be paying our taxes into this government.

"What we really need to be doing is taking care of one another, buying land and growing our own food and building our own nation. If this government shutdown and starvation is what it's going to take, then let the party begin. It's black power, baby, and we rise."

She added: "Black Americans do not care about your government shutdown. And black Americans do not care about you taking away our EBT and our government assistance because black Americans never depended on the American government to take care of us and feed us because we never could.

Four weeks into the federal government shutdown, a woman claiming she's out of food stamps is bragging online about stealing from a grocery store while urging others to steal at will and "infiltrate" churches to get cash.

The woman who goes by "consiracycutiee" and has a username of @jaalagotanattitude posted her illegal shoplifting exploits on social media, using extremely graphic language.

"Everything out here is yours," she said. "Whether or not you take it, they call that sh** free will. I call that sh** eminent domain. You know what I'm saying? One thing I learned from the white men: Take it!"

"I don't give a f*** who's already sitting there. I don't give a f*** if your land was already established. B*tch, it's mine now, and I want it. That is what we should be preaching in the land to the f***ing masses.

"Act more like a white man. Take it for yourself, b*tch, and you won't be worried about who don't got it. You see what I'm saying? Get out there and ravish!"

President Donald Trump on Sunday jumped into allegations of NBA cheating, wondering aloud if the basketball gambling scandal was worse than Democrats cheating in American elections.

"What's worse, the NBA Players cheating at cards, and probably much else, or the Democrats cheating on Elections," Trump posted on Truth Social.

The president then made it very clear where he stands.

President Donald Trump announced months ago that he had organized a program to design and build a huge ballroom on the campus of the White House in Washington.

The federal facilities there never have had a place to deliver state banquets for more than a few dozen, and the new program, in replacement of the 1940s-era East Wing, will seat hundreds.

Further, Trump has organized private donors to pay the hundreds of millions of dollars, saving taxpayers a lot.

A video reveals a big rig barreling at full speed into a line of stopped vehicles on a California highway.

Apparently the driver, who reportedly was arrested and accused of driving under the influence, never even tried to slow down:

The evidence:

Reported the X member who posted the video: "I'm sure this wreck has nothing to do with the 25% of CDLs in Gavin Newsom's California being improperly issued…"

The issue of impaired drivers, under the influence or foreigners who are unable to read English signs and communicate, suddenly has grown in recent months. Multiple big rigs have been involved in accidents, which because of their size, weight and speed, often are the subject of nightmares.

A report from a Fox affiliate said in addition to the three people killed, others were injured in the "horrific chain-reaction crash."

It happened on the westbound lanes of 10 Freeway Tuesday.

Highway patrol officers confirmed the preliminary review confirms traffic had slowed or stopped when the driver of a big rig simply barreled into the victims.

Eight vehicles ultimately were involved.

The driver arrested was identified as a 21-year-old man from Yuba City.

Officials in the Loudoun County, Virginia, school district have had a long history of promoting the LGBT ideologies.

In fact, it has gone so far that students, unhappy with board members who decline to believe there's a difference between boys and girls and refuse to protect vulnerable students in private areas like restrooms and showers, are resorting to democracy to try to change that.

They're encouraging voters to choose candidates who, in fact, would not force girls to share their showers with boys, and vice versa.

A commentary at Twitchy was prompted to state, "BOOM! VA teens take matters into their own hands to stop school board trans-LUNACY…"

The commentary said, "What do Loudoun County, Virginia, teenagers do when their school board ignores their concerns about males in females' spaces and sports? Believe it or not, they don't just get on TikTok and complain about it. Nope. They take matters into their own hands and go to the polls, asking voters to support school board members who will restore girls-only and boys-only sports and spaces. Pretty cool, eh?"

Local broadcaster WJLA said, "For the past four years, LCPS has allowed students to use bathrooms and locker rooms at school based on their chosen gender identity and not biological sex. Several students have protested the policy in the past, but the school board hasn't budged. Since the teens said the school board hasn't listened to their concerns, these students want a new school board and they're asking voters to help."

One teen told the outlet, "I've been sick of it for quite a while. I just can't put up with it anymore. It's not normal. It's not something we should be supporting."

The Democrats' leader in the U.S. House, Hakeem Jeffries, has lashed out at White House spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt as "demented, ignorant, a stone-cold liar, or all of the above," and she has responded with a sledgehammer.

It started when Leavitt unleashed a critical statement about Democrats.

She suggested the party is loyal to its "main constituency" of "Hamas terrorists, illegal aliens, and violent criminals."
