Russia has deployed around 97% of its troops as it tries to step up its offensive in eastern Ukraine — but it still lacks the manpower to “punch through” Kyiv’s defenses. a top British military official said Wednesday. UK Defense Secretary Ben Wallace told the BBC that Russia had yet to make a breakthrough in the eastern region of Ukraine despite its advances. “We haven’t actually seen this massing of a single force to punch through in a big offensive. We’ve just seen an effort to advance, and that has come at a huge cost to the Russian army,” he...

There’s a false notion going around that if there’s a “red wave” and Republicans take back control of the House and/or Senate, things can be made right. Unfortunately, there is absolutely no indication that the Republican Party has any real fight left in it. In DC as well as in Republican-controlled state legislatures across the country, there’s a whole lot of bellyaching but very little action. Meanwhile, Democrats seem willing to sacrifice their careers for their cause As pundit John Cardillo noted on Twitter, the stakes are high and the GOP seems unwilling as a whole to fight the good...

Many in the US political sphere seem convinced that we are on the verge of an apocalyptic moment. On the left, outlets like Jacobin like to point out that income inequality is at the highest it’s been since 1917 — the implication, of course, being that 1917 was the year when the Bolsheviks overthrew Nicholas’s Russia and founded the Soviet Union1. On both the left and right, outlets like the Vice2 and The Federalist3 wonder if the highly polarized political environment will boil over into a second civil war. Both the left and right have their own narratives about what...

As a single mom with a full-time job, Wendy Ahrenkiel had little time for politics. But after the 2020 election, when Joe Biden was declared President, she felt cheated — and found the time. Ahrenkiel, 47, has heard the arguments in the mainstream media about how claims of a stolen election in 2020 are unsupported by credible evidence. But she still doesn’t buy it. “I thought that there's a lot of funny things that went on with the election,” she told CNN. “That made me just do my own research.” That research led her to talk politics with friends —...

A law enforcement source said that the former federal agent regularly stoked the accused gunman Payton Gendron with racism, anti-Semitism and other propaganda designed to inflame the deranged man. “These were like-minded people who used this chat group to talk about their shared interests in racial hatred, replacement theory and hatred of anyone who is Jewish, a person of color or not of European ancestry,” the law enforcement source stated. “What is especially upsetting is that these six people received advanced notice of the Buffalo “The FBI has verified that none of these people called law enforcement to warn them...

Supporters of Donald Trump won’t want to hear this. As a supporter of Donald Trump myself, I don’t want to write it. But there’s a reality that needs to be explained for the sake of understanding why Donald Trump is endorsing certain people. It may be uncomfortable for some to hear, but it needs to be said. Throughout this primary season, Donald Trump has made a few questionable endorsements. Dr. Mehmet Oz, who is AT BEST a milquetoast centrist and at worst a RINO globalist, is arguably his worst endorsement and the most noteworthy in the upcoming Pennsylvania primary. But...

Since the premiere of real-life criminal drama shows "The Dropout" and "Inventing Anna," America has become enraptured with the stories of Elizabeth Holmes and Anna Sorokin. Each series resulted in numerous hot takes on social media, with discourse around how two women managed to dupe the country's "elite" and heads of multi-million dollar companies, using what turned out to be elaborate schemes. We are not here to discuss whether the victims of these scams deserved their fates, or whether the consequences matched the crime, but rather illuminate one fact that has become clear with these stories: these women were only...

How does any rational or caring human being watch us lose a 20-year war against cave-dwelling barbarians, and not just lose that war, but lose it in the most humiliating fashion imaginable, and less than a year later already have a war-boner for Ukraine? I’m convinced the unholy alliance between Neocons, the corporate media, and the Democrat party is the Seventh Seal.

America’s Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) has published and promoted an interview with a renowed Neo-Nazi Ukrainian mayor, without disclosing the politician’s allegiances to World War II German leader Adolf Hitler and Ukraine’s own Nazi sympathizer Stepan Bandera. The interview comes just days after PBS published an article downplaying the links between Neo-Nazi politicians and Ukraine’s current political situation. On Thursday, March 4th, PBS hosted Mayor Artem Semenikhin of Konotop in the country’s North East. Semenikhin described the Russian military as “cockroaches” before going on to thank the United States for supplying his people with weapons. “My weapon is American, and...

Steve Bannon Tosses Hannity to the Wolves... “How is Chris Hayes having segments like that, probably the most powerful segment that’s been done yet on this war, the real war? And you’ve got Hannity, Hannity is trying to decapitate a regime, he’s trying to have regime change,” Bannon said, referencing Hannity’s suggestion on Wednesday to “cut the head of the snake off” and assassinate Putin. Cortes says that Hannity is “losing the plot completely because he’s had too much of Lindsey Graham. When you have Lindsey Graham on your show, the globalist loser, every other night and you do nothing...

MSNBC host Joy Reid said Monday on her show “The ReidOut” that Republicans were the “same” as the Dixiecrat segregationist political party. Reid also claimed Republicans celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. but oppose “everything Dr. King fought for.” Reid said, “Martin Luther King Jr. Day, a day when people who would have stood four-square against everything Dr. King fought for — equal rights, civil rights, the elimination of poverty, and especially voting rights — soberly repeat that one partial quote they memorized in high school.” Reid then shared video and tweets from Govs. Greg Abbott (R-TX) and Glenn Youngkin (R-VA),...

Amid rumors of a video that shows a student being targeted during a diversity lesson at Boise State University, administrators have abruptly suspended all of the school’s general education classes called “University Foundations 200: Foundations of Ethics and Diversity.” “We have been made aware of a series of concerns, culminating in allegations that a student or students have been humiliated and degraded in class on our campus for their beliefs and values,” states a March 16 memo from President Marlene Tromp to the campus community. “This is never acceptable; it is not what Boise State stands for; and we will...
