    Fly-tippers have dumped a "grotesque" mountain of waste in a field in Oxfordshire. The "environmental catastrophe unfolding in plain sight" is up to 150m (490ft) long and 6m (20ft) high and has appeared on a site between the River Cherwell and the A34 near Kidlington. Calum Miller, Liberal Democrat MP for Bicester and Woodstock, has raised the issue in Parliament, saying it was "threatening an environmental disaster". He also said Cherwell District Council had estimated the cost of removing the waste would be greater than its entire annual budget. "This is not a licensed waste site and we can just...

    British police officer Lorne Castle was fired for not treating a teenager who (allegedly) assaulted an elderly man with “courtesy and respect.” Not kidding. Castle is appealing the verdict. What transpired? A gang wielding knives got into a brawl with another gang near a McDonald's, and Constable Castle attempted to arrest the masked 15-year-old who was involved in the fight -- and who allegedly assaulted the elderly man and another person. The cop tackled the teen, who then began yelling as a knife fell out of his pocket. Castle subsequently instructed the perpetrator to “stop screaming like a b*tch” and...

    (Kitco News) – Italy is considering a one-off levy for households to declare gold that is being held off the books – a move that could raise over 2 billion euros, or $2.3 billion, according to an amendment to the 2026 budget seen by Reuters. The proposal would allow individuals to pay a one-time tax of 12.5% to certify the market value of their bullion, gold jewelry, and collectible coins for which purchase records are missing – the same rate levied on government bonds. Under the proposal, the certification must be done by June 2026. Under current rules, the lack...

    A senior conservative legal scholar who holds one of Princeton University’s top academic chairs has resigned from the Heritage Foundation’s board in protest of the think tank president’s defense of Tucker Carlson’s interview with white nationalist Nick Fuentes. Robert P. George, long regarded as one of the right’s leading constitutional thinkers, is the latest figure to step down amid an internal revolt that has already prompted at least seven other staffers, fellows and task-force members to sever ties.

    Will the death of Western Civilization occur while the United States is the global hegemon and unquestioned leader of the West? Due to Euro-socialism and decades of unfettered Islamic immigration, virtually all the nations of Western Europe are swept up in seemingly irreversible death spirals. When combined with the pathological anti-American and anti-West mindset The American Marxist fifth column has long been part of the global cabal of Marxists and their de facto Islamic allies, as both have a common objective: to destroy Western Civilization. As such, they have been determined to undermine the United States as the titular leader...

    The Palestinian flag was raised this morning at Toronto City Hall despite fierce grassroots and institutional political resistance. The flag-raising ceremony has been planned since Canada conditionally recognized Palestinian statehood in September. It was facing fierce pushback from Canadian Jewish advocacy group Tafsik, and more than 25,000 people have signed a petition to halt the plans. But despite the furor, the flag was raised over the Canadian building this morning. Groups of supporters looked on in glee as the black, white, green and red flag waved in the wind. Others took smiling selfies with it fluttering in the background. Attendees...

DeBoyer asked again. "Different...
  • The truth behind Trump's dramatic late-night Epstein file reversal: It wasn't a gamble, it was a tactic... and White House insiders say it's Democrats who will pay the price

    President Donald Trump's sudden pivot on releasing the Jeffrey Epstein files was not an impulsive gamble but a tactical move to end a months-long drama that has consumed the White House and Congress. In a sudden shift, Trump said Sunday night that 'House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files.' But White House insiders have told the Daily Mail that the move by Trump wasn't a U-turn, but a calculated move to expose senior Democrats and his critics who had links to Epstein. Trump told reporters in the Oval Office on Monday: 'We have nothing to do with Epstein....

    According to a statement released by the Technical University of Munich (TUM), the ScanPyramids research project, conducted by researchers from Cairo University and TUM, has identified two air-filled anomalies on the eastern side of the pyramid of the pharaoh Menkaure. Estimated to have been built some 4,500 years ago, the Menkaure Pyramid is the smallest of the three main pyramids on the Giza Plateau. The pyramid's known entrance, on its northern side, features stone blocks that had been polished smooth. Similar blocks on the pyramid's eastern side hinted that there may have once been an entrance there as well, so...

    Nov 18 (Reuters) - Hamas rejected the United Nations Security Council passing a U.S.-drafted resolution endorsing U.S. President Donald Trump's Gaza plan, saying it fails to meet Palestinians' rights and demands and seeks to impose an international trusteeship on the enclave that Palestinians and resistance factions oppose. "Assigning the international force with tasks and roles inside the Gaza Strip, including disarming the resistance, strips it of its neutrality, and turns it into a party to the conflict in favor of the occupation," the group added.

Emily Bickford is challenging a December 2024 custody order that prohibits her from bringing her daughter to Calvary Chapel in Westbrook. A district court judge sided with the child’s father, Matthew Bradeen, ruling that some of the church’s teachings could be psychologically harmful to the girl. The...
