Steven Seagal made a surprise appearance at Vladimir Putin's inauguration ceremony today. The Hollywood actor, who previously hailed himself "one million per cent" Russian arrived in Moscow for president-elect's Kremlin event taking place today (May 7). Putin begins his fifth term as Russian president today after nearly a quarter-century in office. -snip- Seagal pledged his allegiance to Russia at an event held by International Movement of Russians in Moscow in March last year. During the event, the 'Above The Law' star accused the US of spending "billions of dollars on disinformation, lies" which was an attempt to "try to discredit,...

Sources familiar with Hamas' counteroffer for a ceasefire-prisoner swap deal have reported that there are significant discrepancies between the agreed-upon deal and the new one, which was proposed without Israel's consent. "There are sections in which Hamas went way too far away from what was agreed upon with the US," the sources told Kan News. "The exchange of documents creates the dynamic of negotiations, which are expected to resume tomorrow in Cairo." A previous report by the New York Times quoted a US official as claiming that there were only "minor wording changes" between the two proposals. One of the...

This post has been a long time developing. Back during the #MeToo pogroms, and the pink pussy hats, and the screeching on Capitol Hill, and the Stalin-esque career-killing accusations and the disappeared men, I wanted badly to write something titled “Why Are Women so Angry?”—for watching #MeToo had been like watching the spread of a contagion, a mind virus, to use Elon Musk’s term, and a contagion that was splitting society further into two camps.

Vladimir Putin has been sworn in for his fifth term as Russia's president in front of dignitaries, celebrities and friends, including US actor Steven Seagal and a biker gang leader known as 'The Surgeon'. -snip- Also in attendance was Chechen warlord Ramzan Kadyrov, a crony of Putin's who has been the subject of claims that he is terminally ill in recent weeks. The Head of the Chechen Republic appeared to struggle up the stairs into the hall as he arrived flanked by his aides, who helped him to pull off his jacket when they reached the top.

The solar project is destroying the Joshua trees…to save the Joshua Trees from “climate change.” There are a lot of essential lessons real environmentalists can learn from this post. I have offered post after post proving that the Earth’s climate has continually changed. Any temperature rise observed from reliable temperature stations is likely cyclic and part of the world’s warming after an intense period of glaciation. I have noted repeatedly that carbon dioxide is a life-essential gas in trace amounts, and data shows it has no significant role in global warming. I have highlighted that fossil fuels and nuclear energy...

ballot to protest abortion, for that is the world he knows. For authentic conservatives, who still know an even older world, this presents a challenge. Politics can shape culture, to be sure, but in a democratic polity, you cannot simply reverse a cultural tide by political means. You can, perhaps, slow its progress, buying time for cultural renewal, but that renewal will have to come at the level of the imagination. The silent majority of Americans will have to recognize that there is a world more real than the increasingly unreal one shaped by Roe these past 50 years. I’m...

A popular hotel in New York City’s Broadway District has been converted into a migrant shelter as the city continues to face an unprecedented influx of migrants from the U.S. border. The hotel wrote on its Facebook page: “To our valued guests: it is with great sadness that we announce the Square Hotel will be closed for the foreseeable future. We appreciate your patronage and hope to welcome you back someday soon.”

Americans shocked at the aggressive protests on our most elite campuses often imagine these kids have become brainwashed while away at school. That indoctrination certainly does take place. Yet the process for most starts far earlier, often in the K-12 years — or even before. What we’re seeing on our campuses is the culmination of many years of leftist activists pushing kids to the forefront to spread their propaganda. And it’s not remotely just board books like “A is for Activist” that introduce toddlers to the idea of protest before they even set foot in school. Teachers push their agenda;...

Sir Keir Starmer has been told to apologise for 'greenlighting' Israel's 'genocide' in Gaza and allow Islamic prayer in all schools by a fringe group threatening to stand against Labour MPs at the general election. Muslim Vote has handed the opposition leader an extraordinary list of 18 'dangerous' demands that he must agree to carry out, or it plans to try to scupper his hopes of taking power. The little-known group has suggested it could target 55 MPs who have failed to call for a permanent ceasefire in Gaza.

Spokespeople for the two lawmakers declined to comment on their discussions, but we hear Greene and allied Rep. THOMAS MASSIE (R-Ky.) showed up to the meeting with a list of potential demands. Per folks we spoke to last night, they include the following: -No further aid for Ukraine;-A return to the “Hastert Rule,” meaning no legislation is brought to a vote without support from a majority of the House majority;-Defunding the special counsel probes into DONALD TRUMP in upcoming appropriations; and-Enforcement of the “Massie Rule,” whereby government funding is automatically cut across the board if no superseding agreement is reached...

When postal manager José Belloso put his Paris apartment up for sale this year he was required to have an inspector grade the home for energy efficiency under strict rules designed to fight climate change. Belloso’s building was built in the early 1900s from millstone, a porous sedimentary rock that was popular among architects of France’s Belle Époque. His apartment flunked the inspection—and under a regulation that came into force this year, the property was barred from the rental market until costly renovations are made. Belloso was ultimately forced to knock 50,000 euros, equivalent to $54,000, off his asking price...

Now this is a clip from one of the videos I have previously posted. However, this one is very short - Just under 7 minutes They say, IIRC, that they filmed this episode 7 weeks before Hamas' Terrorist Attack on Israel on October 7, 2023

Tara Setmayer, a former Republican congressional staffer turned member of the disgraced Lincoln Project, was a guest on Sunday's edition of MSNBC's The Weekend. Here's how she vilified the people whose names are apparently in the running as Trump's running mate: "They're despicable hypocrites. These are the worst people, because Donald Trump couldn't become who he has become, the malignancy of Trump could not have spread like this without the enablers. "Plain and simple: these are Vichy Republicans. And for the historians out there, they will appreciate what happened to the Vichys during World War II.""What happened to the Vichys?"...

Just when you thought President Biden couldn’t possibly care less about US national security, the White House is reportedly considering opening the United States to refugees from Gaza.
