Kevin Stitt says his state is creating a plan to deport criminal illegal immigrants who are in custody in state prisons, in a boost to President-elect Trump’s proposal to conduct a mass deportation operation next year. Stitt announced that he is directing the state’s commissioner of public safety to lead the effort to expel inmates in Oklahoma prisons who are in the country illegally, by creating a plan to deal with them. That plan will be delivered by January, and the state says it will consult with the Trump transition team and incoming administration to implement it.

President-elect Trump is reportedly considering rolling back the Biden administration's credit for electric vehicles – a move that experts say would have varying effects across the automotive industry. President Biden implemented a tax credit of up to $7,500 to incentivize the purchase of greener vehicles. However, sources with knowledge of the matter told Reuters that Trump plans to ax the tax credit as part of his sweep of Biden's climate agenda. While the decision remains in debate among oil and energy advocates, one group promoting public policy on behalf of the natural gas industry suggested that behind the scenes, automotive groups and consumers could feel relieved …

Incoming White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt expects to enter into "hostile territory" when she begins her service in the Trump administration as the president's lead representative to the media. Leavitt, 27, will be the youngest White House press secretary in U.S. history, unseating Nixon administration press secretary Ron Ziegler, who was 29 when he served in the role from 1969-1974. "We hope there will be decorum, certainly, and we will try to instill that," Leavitt said when asked about concerns over mistreatment from reporters. "We're not shy of the hostile media. We've dealt with that now on the campaign for the past year." TRUMP SAYS MEDIA IS 'VITAL' TO …

"The View" co-hosts Sunny Hostin and Alyssa Farah Griffin clashed on Wednesday over school choice while discussing President-elect Donald Trump's pick for education secretary, Linda McMahon. "When you hear about school choice, it’s really connected to the voucher system," Hostin said. "The Department of Education is responsible for $18.4 billion that fund high poverty K-12 schools. Schools where kids are poor. Kids that grew up in neighborhoods like I grew up in the South Bronx projects." Trump's education secretary pick comes amid discussions of abolishing the Department of Education, which experts say the president would need congressional approval to do. "And what hap…

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C, on Wednesday urged his Republican colleagues not to form a "lynch mob" to block President-elect Trump's controversial choice of Matt Gaetz to be U.S. attorney general. Neither should the GOP-controlled Senate give Gaetz a "rubber stamp," Graham said in a statement that called for a fair process after he met with the prospective nominee and Vice President-elect JD Vance. "My record is clear. I tend to defer to presidential cabinet choices unless the evidence suggests disqualification," said the South Carolina senator. "I fear the process surrounding the Gaetz nomination is turning into an angry mob, and unverified allegations are being treated…

Iran has increased its nearly weapons-grade uranium, a United Nations watchdog found, defying international demands to rein in its nuclear program. Iran now has enough uranium at 60% purity, just below the 90% purity needed for a weapon, to produce about four nuclear bombs, an International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) report said. The report found Iran had about 400 pounds of uranium enriched to 60% as of Oct. 26, up 40 pounds from August. Around 92 pounds of uranium, enriched at 90%, is needed to make an atomic weapon. Iran’s overall stockpile of uranium enriched at any level reached about 14,560 pounds, up 1,880 pounds from August. It comes as Iran has offered to cea…

Wood issued a scathing indictment of the draft resolution that favored the U.S.-designated terrorist movement, Hamas, over the release of more than 100 hostages, including seven Americans held by the jihadi organization in Gaza.
