For families struggling to make ends meet, Kamala Harris claims she has a plan to lower energy costs. What she will deliver is more pain. Just ask anyone paying energy bills in a state her party controls. On Harris’ campaign website, she pays lip service to reducing energy costs, but then rattles off a long list of plans to tackle the “climate crisis.” We already know you can’t have one with the other. At a congressional hearing last week, members of the House Budget Committee heard from witnesses about how Biden-Harris policies have fueled today’s energy crisis. One of the...

TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — The U.S. Geological Survey experts projected that Tropical Storm Helene will bring significant coastal change to Florida’s west coast. According to a USGS coastal change forecast, 94% of the beaches on Florida’s west coast are expected to become continuously covered by water from Tropical Storm Helene. This can cause flooding behind sand dunes and impact coastal communities, making this the most severe level of coastal change. Helene’s waves and surge are estimated to have the potential to cause 100% of all ocean-facing beaches on the Florida west coast to experience erosion and overwash, according to USGS...

A former bodyguard of Sean “Diddy” Combs has once again claimed that the rapper, accused of sex trafficking and racketeering, has footage of elite politicians engaging in compromising activities. (snip) “People are not going to tie this together, but if you look at it, you have to say, because of Mayor Adams and his relationship with Diddy, it brought on the Southern District of New York to start investigating Diddy on civil lawsuits that were filed against him because the feds are going after all these politicians in New York City,” the former bodyguard further claimed.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced Wednesday that soldiers are prepared for a ground war in southern Lebanon as Israel continues to pound Hezbollah weapons sites from the air. The purpose of the ground operation would be to remove Hezbollah from its positions near the Israeli border, where it operates in violation of United Nations Security Council Resolution 1701, which was adopted as an agreement to end the Second Lebanon War in 2006.

A Houston bankruptcy judge ruled on Tuesday that assets from the conspiracy theorist Alex Jones’s Infowars empire can be auctioned off to help pay families of the Sandy Hook mass shooting victims the defamation awards he owes them. The auction, set for mid-November, will include Infowars’ website, social media accounts, broadcasting equipment, product trademarks and inventory owned by Free Speech Systems, Infowars’ parent company. Mr. Jones’s fate as a broadcaster most likely depends on who buys his business. Though the Infowars name and assets are potentially of interest to a range of entities on the far right, under the terms...

mysterious group appears to be sending absentee ballot applications across Michigan, some of which claim authorization from Democrat Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. “All Michigan voters can securely vote from home by using the enclosed application to request a vote-by-mail ballot,” reads a mailer that says it was “paid for” by a group called The Voter Project Michigan. “Return the enclosed vote-by-mail ballot application today.” The mailer, addressed to the mother of Michigan Republican State Rep. Brad Paquette, is marked with what appears to be Gov. Whitmer’s signature. Paquette told The Federalist the mailer arrived at his mother’s old address and was...

Caroline Ellison, the star witness in the prosecution of FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried...Judge Lewis Kaplan said a "literal get-out-of-jail-free card I can't agree to" as he sentenced Ellison while praising her extensive cooperation...The prison term was significantly stiffer than the recommendation by the federal Probation Department...FTX was once valued at $32 billion.

“‘These things I have spoken to you in figurative language; an hour is coming when I will speak no more to you in figurative language, but will tell you plainly of the Father’” (John 16:25). Jesus’ teaching in figurative language revealed the need for further enlightenment by the Holy Spirit. Jesus left His disciples a storehouse of valuable information that would require additional teaching from the Holy Spirit to make it understandable. The “figurative language” our Lord sovereignly used was made up of many veiled but pointed statements, filled with rich meaning. Even Christ’s closest followers, when they first heard...

Joe Manchin is ending his long and generally successful political career as a sort of a pitiable character, and cautionary tale. The one time flying high Governor of WV, he has a political career that has spanned more than 4 decades. A very popular governor of what was once one of the most reliably democrat state in the Union, he cruised into his Senate spot taking the seat of a WV institution named Robert Byrd in the 2010 election. He has held the seat since then, but facing the ever growing tide of his home states political momentum against him,...

A Texas man was found liable in the "Trump train" federal civil lawsuit. The man, from San Antonio, is liable for $40,000 for conspiring to disrupt the Biden-Harris campaign and intimidate its supporters. No liability was found on the five other defendants in this trial.

Phillip Schofield has confirmed he will be returning to the public eye with his first TV stint on Channel 5's Cast Away, which is set to air next week - over a year on from the This Morning scandal. Back in May 2023, Schofield stepped down from his role as presenter on ITV daytime show This Morning after embarking on an "unwise but not illegal" affair with a younger male colleague. The scandal left Schofield coming off social media and staying out of the public eye for a year, but the star recently began using his Instagram again to share...

Show young adult students the truth about Islam and antisemitism, and you’ll get a score of interesting responses. With Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity (DIE) and Critical Race Theory (CRT) overshadowing an instructor’s life, it is a challenge to educate. Nonetheless, sometimes there is a glimmer of hope. One of the assigned readings where I teach is the 2002 New York Times article titled “Where Nothing Says Everything” by Suzanne Berne. It is a description of Berne’s visit to Ground Zero, seven months after the terrorist attacks. Many students are unfamiliar with the jihadist philosophy behind those heinous deeds. So I...

“Sustainable.” “Sustainability.” A couple of the popular new buzz words Leftists love to use as they continue to shove their “Green New Deal” down the throats of hard-working Americans, struggling harder than ever to hold on to their sanity, pay their bills, keep a roof over their heads and food on the table and shoulder an ever-increasing crushing burden of taxes. I’m sick to death of hearing the word, because nothing the government does is “sustainable.” And our so-called “representatives” in Congress exempt themselves from every insane new rule they mandate for the rest of us. In a recent TV...

I have just been to Beirut Airport - the only civilian airport in Lebanon. Most flights are cancelled after international airlines have suspended their flights from and to Beirut. Both arrivals and departure lounges are almost empty. The MEA - Lebanon's national airline - as well as the Iraqi and Iranian airlines are the only companies still operating at the moment. Many countries have issued urgent reminders for their nationals to leave Lebanon immediately. But so far no government has mentioned any activation of their evacuation plans.

At the Columbus, Ohio, gun turn-in/”buyback” event on Saturday, September 14, 2024, at least two private buyers were seen looking for deals. In the event’s coverage, this correspondent did not find any mention of the private buyers. The cameraman could not resist their compelling image. The image of private buyers destroys the “guns are bad, turn them in” message. In an event where city officials are deliberately paying “more than market value” in gift cards, it is difficult to find bargains. Once the gift cards run out, the dynamic reverses. Cash in hand is better than no gift cards. From...

Over the past 15 years, members of Congress have survived two near-deadly shootings, a train crash with dozens of them on board, and a Capitol riot that had hundreds of lawmakers fearing for their lives.Despite those incidents, the institution is wholly unprepared for a catastrophic event that kills or incapacitates multiple members — even if that hypothetical tragedy results in a major power shift: changing which party holds the majority in the House or Senate. (snip) Right now, the main idea to address the issue is a constitutional amendment that would require members of the House to submit a list...
