(BREITBART) – A sixteen-year-old girl is getting a lot of attention for bravely saving a horse from the fires ravaging the Los Angeles area. The equestrian, identified as Kalyna Fedorowycz, has been helping move horses away from the fires that have devastated communities, PetHelpful.com reported on Wednesday.

During one of her rescue missions, Fedorowycz encountered a large black horse that was too frightened to get into a trailer so it could be taken to a safe place. Fedorowycz was determined to get the horse out of harm’s way, therefore, she decided to saddle up and ride it to safety.

Her father recorded their 14-mile journey wherein they encountered numerous hazards. In the video clip, smoke is seen in the air as his daughter bravely rides the horse for some portions of the trip and walks alongside it at other times.

The end of the green new deal and the end of the electric vehicle mandate came Monday when President Donald Trump was inaugurated. “You will be able to buy the car you want,” said President Donald Trump.

Announcing “The Golden Age of America begins right now,” he said no longer will American taxes enrich other countries, but the new “External Revenue Service” will collect tariffs from foreign sources to enrich Americans.

He said the new Department of Government Efficiency, already proposed, soon will be official, to eliminate the overspending imposed on America by Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, who encouraged spending trillions of dollars, hitting consumers with massive inflation.

Engineering gender ideology in government is about to end, and he will restore “fair, equal and impartial justice,” by ending the past administration’s weaponization of the government against political enemies, “something I know something about,” he said.

Starting now, the government recognizes “only two genders, male and female,” he said.

The military now has only one mission: “defeating America’s enemies.”

The southern border now is an “emergency,” he said, and foreign drug cartels are terrorists.

Government censorship now is over, he said.

His comments came just moments after he took the oath of office and became the nation’s 47th president with Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts administering the oath.

“I return to the presidency, confident and optimistic that we are at the start of a thrilling new era of national success, a tide of change is sweeping the country. We must be honest about the challenges we face while they are plentiful, they will be annihilated by this great momentum that the world is now witnessing in the United States of America.:

He pointed out the problems he’s been handed by a Democrat administration: “We now have a government that cannot manage even a simple crisis at home, while at the same time stumbling into a continuing catalog of catastrophic events abroad. It fails to protect our magnificent law abiding American citizens, but provides sanctuary and protection for dangerous criminals, many from prisons and mental institutions that have illegally entered our country from all over the world.”

“All of this will change starting today,” he declared.

Alaska’s mountain now is Mt. McKinley and it’s the Gulf of America, not Gulf of Mexico, he announced.

He recognized that God saved his life from an assassin’s bullet in Pennsylvania in order to “Make America Great Again.”

He said he’s using the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to use police authorities to attack foreign gangs.

“We’re taking it back,” he said of the Panama Canal, which was built by America but given to Panama, and now is essentially being run by China.

He plans to plant the Stars and Stripes “on the planet Mars.”

“The impossible is what we do best,” he said.

China on Sunday revealed a national action plan to strengthen its education system by 2035 and bolster the country’s “international influence.”

The plan, issued by the Communist Party of China Central Committee and the State Council, is aimed at building an education system to “support its modernization drive and national rejuvenation,” according to Xinhua, China’s official state news agency. The announcement comes days after data released Friday revealed that China’s population declined for the third straight year in 2024.

“The strong education system of socialism with Chinese characteristics will feature powerful ideological and political leadership, talent competitiveness, scientific and technological underpinning, livelihood security, social synergy, and international influence,” according to the state news agency. The report also states that “building a leading country in education” has been one of China’s aspirations “since the advent of modern times.”

The educational blueprint will also require China’s primary and secondary school students to have a minimum of two hours of physical activity daily in an attempt to control rising myopia and obesity rates, Reuters reported. Notably, in the U.S., one in five children and adolescents are obese, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Several American lawmakers have raised concerns over China’s attempts to influence education in the U.S. in recent years. A U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission report published in July 2024 suggested that U.S. policymakers should include amendments to the Higher Education Act of 1965 to increase scrutiny of funding flowing to American universities from China or Chinese influence entities or operatives.

Beijing has faced a slew of economic woes in recent years, including an unstable housing market, rising national debt and weakening consumer demand. High education costs in China also contribute to some of its citizens’ financial struggles, with one study published in April by the Stanford Center on China’s Economy and Institutions finding that Chinese households spend an average of 17.1% of their annual income and 7.9% of their total annual expenditures on education, exceeding the U.S., Japan and Mexico.

The education system in the U.S. is also likely to see broad reform under President-elect Donald Trump, who returns to office Monday, as he has vowed to “save American education” from “the radical left maniacs.”

The president-elect recently announced that he spoke with Chinese President Xi Jinping on Friday about various topics, including TikTok and trade.

Former Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards passed away Monday at the age of 67, according to NBC News.

Richards had been battling glioblastoma, an aggressive and incurable form of brain cancer, since 2023. The abortion activist was responsible for overseeing at least 3.8 million abortions during her 12 years as Planned Parenthood’s president, according to Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America.

“This morning our beloved Cecile passed away at home, surrounded by her family and her ever-loyal dog, Ollie,” Richards’ family told NBC. “Our hearts are broken today but no words can do justice to the joy she brought to our lives”.

In November 2024, President Joe Biden awarded Richards with the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian award, for her “courage” and fearlessness in leading America towards being “a nation of freedom” through her work with the abortion provider.

Today, I had the honor of awarding Cecile Richards the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

With absolute courage, she fearlessly leads us forward to be the America we say we are – a nation of freedom.

Through her work to lift up the dignity of workers, defend and advance women’s… pic.twitter.com/IayCTAFK4N

Richards stepped down from her role as head of Planned Parenthood in 2018 after a federal investigation revealed the organization was allegedly illegally harvesting and selling parts from aborted babies. The former Planned Parenthood president previously advocated for women “to be bold” in announcing their abortions and to encourage other women to do the same.

WATCH:

Joe Biden, just hours before his presidency ends, announced presidential pardons for a long list of those whose antics contributed to the Democrats’ lawfare against President Trump.

Included in the bunch was Anthony Fauci, the former federal health official who declared, during the COVID-19 China virus pandemic, that he WAS the “science.”

And he promptly expressed his appreciation for the pardon but proclaimed his innocence.

Dr. Anthony Fauci tells me he appreciates the pardon, but he committed no crime:

“I really truly appreciate the action President Biden has taken today on my behalf. Let me be perfectly clear, Jon, I have committed no crime, you know that, and there are no possible grounds for…

“I really truly appreciate the action President Biden has taken today on my behalf. Let me be perfectly clear, Jon, I have committed no crime, you know that, and there are no possible grounds for any allegation or threat of criminal investigation or prosecution of me,” he claimed.

Fauci said he is grateful because the threats and possibility of a politically motivated prosecution “creates immeasurable and intolerable distress on me and my family.”

And while the technicalities all undoubtedly were followed in the pardons, the public perception is going to end up being that there probably was something there.

In fact, the fact-check system for online comments, which is the response from the community, noted that a historic federal court ruling, from the Supreme Court, found that accepting a pardon carries “the imputation of guilt and acceptances of a confession of it.”

That was why several of the prison inmates named among the earlier thousands of Biden pardons to criminals, murderers and drug dealers said they did not want the pardons: Because they would influence their pending appeals.

Then he should refuse it. In the 1915 Supreme Court case Burdick v. United States, the Court ruled that a pardon carries an “imputation of guilt”. The Court also stated that accepting a pardon was “an admission of guilt”.

The community response explained that the Supreme Court technically ruled that accepting a pardon does not have a legal impact on guilt or no guilt, and does not bind the recipient to admitting guilt in other circumstances.

“While legally it does not require an admission of guilt, public perception might differ,” those community responses explained. “Some might interpret the acceptance of a pardon as an acknowledgment of wrongdoing, but this is more a matter of public opinion than legal fact.”

Biden signed pardons for Fauci, Gen. Mark Milley and the entire J6 Select Committee.

The Gateway Pundit explained, “Fauci’s policies destroyed millions of lives, bankrupted thousands of businesses, and unnecessarily killed millions around the world. Liz Cheney, who is currently under investigation by the U.S. House of Representatives, knowingly lied about January 6 and President Trump’s actions that day.”

And, it explained, “General Milley was one of the architects of the worst American foreign policy blunder in history. His response to his own ineptness was to focus on the woke military agenda. Milley also was making promises with China to warn them about any possible U.S. attack.”

The report called Biden’s latest pardons, “a final act of defiance against the American people.”

Biden, whose party launched multiple lawfare attacks against Trump, including wild claims in Georgia that he participated in an organized crime campaign and defrauded companies whose officials said they liked doing business with Trump and wanted to do more, in his proclamation admitted that those he was pardoning could have been “investigated or prosecuted” and they could ultimately have been “exonerated.”

But he said simply being investigated could do damage to their reputations.

He insisted, “The issuance of these pardons should not be mistaken as an acknowledgment that any individual engaged in any wrongdoing, nor should acceptance be misconstrued as an admission of guilt for any offense.”

The judgment, however, came swiftly. At Twitchy was the comment: “As Twitchy readers know, Joe Biden signed some last-minute pardons of TOTALLY INNOCENT people like Liz Cheney and Anthony Fauci while he still had the ability to do so. Let us rephrase that. Whoever has been manipulating and using Biden for the past four years had him sign some last-minute pardons of TOTALLY INNOCENT people …”

It continued, “Innocent people don’t need or even ‘appreciate’ pardons, Tony.”

The report pointed out that even former Rep. Adam Kinzinger, one of the harshest critics of Trump, was aligned with those who suggest that something triggered the pardon.
