  • UN security council just now: Ukraine responds to Trumps Peace deal (sounds like a rejection)

    11/20/2025 2:42:04 PM PST · by janetjanet998 · 6 replies
    Ukraine has officially received from the American side a draft plan. We outline the fundamental principles that matter to our people. We agree to work on the plan's provisions in a way that would bring about a just end to the war. In this context, allow me to make several critical points. 1-First, while Ukraine stands ready to engage in meaningful negotiations to end this war — including at the leaders’ level — our red lines are clear and unwavering. There will never be any recognition, formal or otherwise, of Ukrainian territory temporarily occupied by the Russian Federation as Russian....

    The Pennsylvania Working Families Party says it will support a primary challenger against Democrat Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman in 2028. "We're primarying John Fetterman. Last week, Fetterman once again sold out working Pennsylvanians. He was the deciding vote for a Republican budget bill that will strip healthcare from over 400,000 Pennsylvanians. We deserve real working-class leadership in the U.S. Senate, not a Trump-enabling Democrat," the group said in a social media post. "We're training potential candidates, recruiting volunteers, and soliciting donations to help us defeat him," it added. The party has not yet fielded a candidate. Fetterman has, on occasion,...

    Democratic senators clashed with Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) on the Senate floor Thursday when the GOP leader proposed a resolution to clarify that any damages won by Republican senators from lawsuits against the Department of Justice (DOJ) would go to the U.S. Treasury and not to the senators’ bank accounts. Responding to complaints that empowering Republican senators to sue the Justice Department for millions of dollars is inappropriate or unseemly, Thune on Thursday proposed a compromise.He suggested that colleagues approve a resolution by unanimous consent to clarify that any financial compensation awarded to senators would go to the...

    While the U.S. Department of Agriculture considers reform to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program that helps feed 42 million people, one lawmaker is pushing legislation aimed at curbing the program’s use at fast-food restaurants nationwide. Sen. Joni Ernst, R-IA, cited new data from the USDA that exposes how blue states have abused the SNAP program to spend $250 million per year on fast food through the 1977 exception to the “hot food” restriction through the Restaurant Meals Program. While SNAP's original intent was to provide food-insecure families basic staples, like meat, fruits, and vegetables, loopholes created by Congress in 1977...
  • Imagining a Post-Trump America Where Populism Magically Disappears

    The make-believe future that exists only among those who mistook Trump for a typo. There’s a certain kind of conservative, often credentialed and overconfident, who clings to the belief that Trump’s departure from the ballot magically resets the board. They imagine the movement snapping back to a tidy, small-government ethos — as if the last decade were a loud, unruly detour rather than the story itself. Sarah Isgur’s recent conversation with David Leonhardt of the New York Times is a clear example of this instinct: a hope that the base doesn’t really want what it overwhelmingly chose, twice, and...

    The nation’s foreign-born population is continuing to decline, newly released Bureau of Labor Statistics data reveals, as President Donald Trump’s administration carries out an aggressive immigration enforcement agenda.The preliminary data, analyzed by Center for Immigration Studies Director of Research Steven Camarota, suggests that in September, the 16-year-old and older foreign-born population declined by an additional 101,000.From January through September, the number of foreign-born residents in the United States aged 16 and older has decreased by 2 million. Camarota suggests that the total foreign-born population, including those younger than 16 years old, has declined by 2.3 million.Compare this to the rapid...

    bbc ^ | 11-20-25 | Georgina Rannard and BBC climate team,
    The UN climate talks COP30 have been evacuated due to a fire breaking out inside the venue in Belém, Brazil. BBC journalists saw flames and smoke in the pavilion area before they were rushed outside where fire engines raced past. The UN said the fire was extinguished after six minutes and 13 people were treated for smoke inhalation. It is not yet known what caused the blaze. The talks were in the final hours of trying to agree on next steps to tackle climate change but the fire has disrupted negotiations and the talks remain closed.

    Trump grew the conservative coalition in 2024. Carlson and Fuentes would shrink it.Tucker Carlson’s effort to bring neo-Nazi Nick Fuentes into the mainstream of the conservative movement is not only morally reprehensible, it is a path to political suicide for the right. Those defending or excusing Carlson’s sane-washing of Fuentes need to ask themselves a simple question: Do they want to be a majoritarian movement or not?Conservatives cannot build a lasting majority without appealing to minority voters — and that won’t happen if they embrace White nationalists.It is true that Democrats have a problem with White men. In 2024, Democrats...

    A federal judge on Nov. 20 ordered the Trump administration to end its deployment of National Guard troops in the nation’s capital. Trump had said the troops were needed to deal with rampant crime and violence in Washington and support federal immigration law enforcement efforts there. On Aug. 11, the president signed a presidential memorandum, in which he said the local D.C. government “has lost control of public order and safety in the city.” “It is a point of national disgrace that Washington, D.C., has a violent crime rate that is higher than some of the most dangerous places in...
  • Punishable by death!' Trump notes 'execution' is traditional penalty for sedition

    World Net Daily ^ | November 20, 2025 | Bob Unruh
    President Donald Trump on social media has pointed out that the penalty for the refusal of military troops to obey orders is serious. Punishment up to and including execution. The response from the president came after a list of Democrats made a video urging federal employees, including members of the military, to refuse to obey what they called, without a definition, "illegal" orders. Presumably that would be orders from the president, as commander-in-chief of the military, with which the Democrats disagreed, most likely for political purposes. Leftist California Gov. Gavin Newsom claimed it was a call by Trump to "hang...

    The Council on American-Islamic Relations’s (CAIR) legal arm has filed a lawsuit challenging Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s (R) designation of their group as a “foreign terrorist organization” — a stance at odds with the U.S. government. CAIR is the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights advocacy organization, according to a description on its website. The organization’s legal defense fund and the Muslim Legal Fund of America, a legal advocacy group for Muslims, sued both Abbott and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R) on Thursday to prevent the enforcement of Abbott’s designation. “CAIR Legal Defense Fund has successfully sued and defeated Texas...

    2025 is shaping up to be the year when more Americans than ever recognize that riots (remember anti-ICE L.A. riots in the summer) and or protests, echoing the BLM chaos, aren’t organic at all, but bankrolled by far-left billionaires using a sprawling constellation of nonprofit entities running a sinister color-revolution-style operations targeting President Trump, with the mission to derail the America First movement. Whatever the cause – pro-Marxist, pro-gender confusion, anti-Trump, anti-police, anti-capitalist, anti-American, or any combination of these nation-killing agendas – it all comes packaged as “strengthening democracy.” In reality, the objective is to destabilize and hollow out America...

    WASHINGTON, D.C. — On Monday afternoon, an article titled, “White House to meet clergy with ties to pro-war Russian Orthodox Church” was published by Laura Kelly of The Hill. This article was written about meetings between Orthodox laypeople, priests, and bishops with members of the Trump administration that are set to take place Tuesday on Capitol Hill. The topic of discussion is the persecution of the canonical Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC). In that article, it was reported that Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC) had written a draft letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi asking her to investigate “whether the Russian Federation...

    With less than two weeks to go before a special election in a Tennessee Congressional District, newly resurfaced audio shows how the Democratic candidate really feels about the seat she is running to represent. Aftyn Behn, a Nashville Democratic state representative who is her party's nominee, said she 'hates' the city that would anchor her potential congressional seat. 'I hate the city, I hate the bachelorettes, I hate the pedal taverns, I hate country music, I hate all of the things that make Nashville. I hate it,' Behn can be heard saying in the resurfaced clip from the GRITS podcast...

    One can debate how effective Trump has been in following up on his various campaign promises, but one place where he has been steadfast is reversing the Biden admin’s disastrous labor policies which favored foreign-born workers (mostly illegal aliens) over native-born workers. Today’s jobs report, which had something for everyone, including forecast-busting payrolls offset by the highest unemployment rate in 4 years at 4.4% (driven by another jump in black unemployment), was indisputably strong when it comes to one thing: the rotation from foreign born workers to domestic ones. To wit: in September, the number of native-born workers surged by...

    The state will not seek the death penalty against the man charged with beheading his co-worker at a Dallas motel. No Death Penalty What's new: Yordanis Cabos-Martinez made his first court appearance at the Frank Crowley Courthouse on Thursday morning. The Cuban native allegedly got into an argument with his co-worker, Chandra "Bob" Nagamalliah, on Sept. 10. Police said Cabos-Martinez then beheaded Nagamallaiah as Nagamallaiah’s family looked on in horror. His hands were shackled at his waist, and he wore a tan jail jumpsuit as deputies brought him into Judge Lela May’s courtroom. Defense attorney Lalon "Clipper" Peale told the...
