'@KamalaHarris is moving into a new multi-million dollar mansion in Brentwood, CA near OJ Simpson's old property (where the glove was found) after her campaign was left with millions of dollars in debt. Where did she get millions of dollars from?' MAGA activist Laura Loomer posted on X (formerly Twitter).
Loomer's tweet, which quickly gained traction among MAGA supporters online, has reignited familiar speculation around Harris's post-political future and finances, particularly after her loss to Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election.

While there's no public record confirming that Harris has purchased a property in Brentwood or elsewhere in California, it hasn't stopped the internet from buzzing. Brentwood, a wealthy enclave on the west side of Los Angeles, is home to a host of celebrities and historic properties—most infamously, the scene of the O.J. Simpson saga Loomer referenced. Harris apparently eyed NYC after Hawaiian reset
Adding fuel to the rumor mill is the fact that Harris has recently been associated with a string of luxury getaways and possible moves, including a post-election escape to Hawaii. According to DailyMail.com, Harris and her husband Doug Emhoff spent six days at an exclusive $7 million estate in the upscale Mauna Kea resort on the Big Island.
The couple reportedly paid $1,300 a night to rent the stunning five-bedroom home, which features ocean views, a private pool, hot tub, and a secluded location in the Fairways South neighborhood.
A listing on the rental website describes it as part of a resort community designed for 'a luxurious and secluded vacation experience,' offering accommodations ranging from 'oceanfront studios to four-bedroom condominiums and private estates.'

Following their Hawaiian escape, speculation has also swirled around a potential move to New York City. Emhoff was recently spotted touring a $20,000-a-month apartment on Manhattan's Upper West Side. This has led many to believe the couple may be eyeing the Big Apple as their next home after Harris officially hands over the vice presidency to J.D. Vance on January 20.

Big Beautiful Bill: List of Republicans who will vote against Trump's spending measure

President Donald Trump's tax and spending measure, dubbed the 'Big Beautiful Bill', will go on the Senate floor on Saturday for debate and a vote. While a majority of Republicans, who hold majorities in Congress, are expected to back the president. However, some have come out publicly to declare that they will vote against the bill, which proposes to reduce spending on Medicaid, food stamps and other programs. President Donald Trump said he hopes his Big Beautiful Bill will clear the Senate(AFP) The 940-page bill was released shortly before midnight Friday. Senators were expected to take a procedural vote Saturday to begin considering the legislation. The timing is, however, uncertain. After the Senate, the bill would need to return to the House for a final round of votes before it reaches President Trump's desk.

His Truth Social post read: 'We can get it done. It will be a wonderful Celebration for our Country.' Under Senate debate rules, it takes a three-fifths majority of lawmakers to pass a bill. If 51 of 100 Senators vote for it, the bill passes by a simple majority. Now, not all Republicans are voting along party lines. Sen Thom Tillis said he is concerned about the fundamentals of the package and will not support the procedural motion to begin debate. 'I'm voting no on the motion to proceed,' he said.

Senator Thom Tillis (R-NC) Sen Tillis objects to the bill's Medicaid cuts, which could affect vulnerable constituents, and the abrupt phaseout of clean energy tax credits, which he argues risks economic disruption. Rep David Valadao (R-CA) The California Republican refuses to support any bill that cuts Medicaid or threatens healthcare access in his Central Valley district, where nearly two-thirds of constituents rely on Medicaid.

Iran reopens central and western airspace after ceasefire with Israel: What does this mean for international flights?

Iran has reopened its airspace over central and western parts of the country to international overflights, the Roads and Urban Development Ministry announced on Saturday. The decision follows a ceasefire with Israel that brought a 12-day conflict to a halt earlier this week. According to an AFP report, the move was approved by Iran's Civil Aviation Organization (CAO) after comprehensive safety and security assessments were completed by relevant authorities.

However, flights to and from Iranian airports in the northern, southern, and western regions, including major hubs like Tehran's Mehrabad and Imam Khomeini airports, remain suspended until further notice. The CAO, in a separate statement, added that the country's airspace in these areas will stay closed until 14:00 local time (10.30 GMT). The announcement came after Wednesday's reopening of Iran's eastern airspace for domestic and international flights, including overflights. Mashhad Airport, one of the sites allegedly targeted during the Israeli offensive, was now operational again, along with Chabahar Airport in the southeast. Spokesperson for the Roads and Urban Development ministry, Majid Akhavan, had noted that the eastern half of the country was fully open for flights, adding that it included transit flights and operations involving airports located in the region.

This was after a wave of Israeli airstrikes targeted Tehran and other locations, prompting retaliatory missile launches. With the closure, several air routes across the Middle East were severely affected. The ceasefire was announced on Tuesday, after which Iranian authorities began to start their air travel operations and chose to open overflight corridors first, which is essential for international transit routes connecting Asia, the Middle East, and Europe. The government has warned potential travelers and residents not to go to airports in the restricted zones and to seek as much further information from official announcements regarding the status of regional air travel, the reports added. The airspace reopening would ease the pressure on world air routes that, by nature, act as corridors for long-haul flights linking European and Asian airlines. FAQs What airspace is currently open in Iran? Iran has reopened its eastern, central, and western airspace for international overflights. However, flights to and from northern, southern, and western airports remain suspended. Why did Iran close its airspace? Iran shut its skies on June 13 following a series of Israeli airstrikes, which led to a 12-day conflict between the two countries. Are Iranian airports open now? Some eastern airports, like Mashhad and Chabahar, are operational again. Airports in Tehran and other western and southern regions remain closed for now. When will Iran fully reopen its skies? Flights in restricted regions are expected to resume gradually. As of now, closures remain in place until at least Sunday 14:00 local time (10:30 GMT), pending further updates.

Record-breaking Budapest Pride defies government ban amid LGBTQ crackdown

Parade organisers risk up to a year in prison, and attendees can face fines up to 500 euros ($590). The latest legal changes also empower the authorities to use facial-recognition technology to identify those taking part, and cameras have recently been installed on lamp posts along the parade route read more People raise their hands as they take part in the Budapest Pride parade in Budapest. AFP A record number of people marched in the Budapest Pride parade on Saturday, defying a government ban and signalling a significant backlash against LGBTQ rights in the European Union. Organisers estimated that up to 200,000 people participated in the 30th parade in Budapest, which was organised in a cheerful environment with rainbow flags flying high. These figures greatly exceed the previous record attendance of 35,000 people and came despite a police ban enforced by Prime Minister Viktor Orban's nationalist administration. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD This year, the government coalition modified its laws and the constitution to restrict the yearly celebration, justifying his years-long crackdown on LGBTQ rights as 'child protection' measures. But the opposition-run Budapest city hall decided to co-host the march so it could go ahead. 'I am proud to be gay… and I am very scared that the government wants to bring us down,' one participant, 66-year-old Zoltan, told AFP. I am very surprised that there are so many people, I want to cry," he added. He declined to give his full name. 'Big embarrassment' Orban said Friday that while police would not break up the Pride march, those who took part should be aware of 'legal consequences'. Parade organisers risk up to a year in prison, and attendees can face fines up to 500 euros ($590). The latest legal changes also empower the authorities to use facial-recognition technology to identify those taking part, and cameras have recently been installed on lamp posts along the parade route. Szabolcs Pek, lead analyst at research centre Iranytu Institute, said it would be difficult for Orban's Fidesz party to respond to the high turnout. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'This is a big embarrassment for Fidesz,' he told AFP. The march began chaotically under a scorching sun. Marchers repeatedly had to pause to wait for police to stop traffic, according to AFP journalists at the scene. 'I definitely wanted to come, if only to show my solidarity, and to show how important this issue is – not only to me, but to almost everyone living in Budapest,' economics student Marcell Szanto, 22, told AFP. Dozens of European lawmakers also attended in defiance of the ban. 'Love can't be banned' 'Freedom and love can't be banned,' read one huge poster put up near city hall, the gathering point for the march. Earlier this week, EU chief Ursula von der Leyen called on the Hungarian authorities to reverse the ban. Thirty-three nations, including most EU countries, have also released a statement in support of the march. And at a news conference Saturday, several French MEPs called on the EU to take tougher measures against Orban's government over the crackdown on civil rights and other rule-of-law issues. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Since Orban's return to power in 2010, the country of 9.6 million people has been steadily rolling back LGBTQ rights. It is the first EU nation to ban a Pride march, and Orban has said he has been emboldened by the anti-diversity push by US President Donald Trump. Some people also gathered along the route to protest LGBTQ rights, in demonstrations called by far-right groups, one of which featured a wooden cross adorned with protest messages. But opposition leader Peter Magyar said on Facebook that the government 'scored not a goal, but a huge own goal with their attempt to ban today's event'. Budapest mayor Gergely Karacsony in a post noting the big turnout thanked Orban 'for advertising for a more tolerant society'. One woman, who gave only her first name, Katalin, told AFP she agreed with the ban though she hoped there would be no clashes. 'Disgusting… it's become a fad to show off ourselves,' she said.
