An 'experimental explosion' has been detected off the coast of Florida, nearly two weeks after a similar event occurred. The US Geological Survey (USGS) detected a 3.9 magnitude earthquake east of Flagler Beach on Tuesday. It was listed with a depth of zero feet, indicating the seismic source was at or very near the surface, a characteristic more consistent with an explosion than a typical tectonic shake. The location is about 20 miles from where another event was recorded on July 16, east of Ponce Inlet, an area where the US Navy is known to conduct Full Ship Shock Trials...

AUSTIN, TX — Over the course of a ninety-minute transaction, Elon Musk became the sole and absolute owner of The Economist. Though Musk had no reported prior interest in the aging magazine, Musk acquired total ownership of the company during a sit-down with The Economist's Zanny Beddoes. "Well, that didn't quite go as planned," sighed Beddoes, handing over her employee badge to Musk. "Here you go, Elon. I'll, uh, just see myself out." Musk, for his part, offered Beddoes the option to stay on with the company, on the condition that she do actual journalism. Beddoes made several loud screeching...

VIDEOThe mysterious CIA Project MKUltra may have been involved in trying to create brainwashed assassins for the US Government who may in turn have been involved in a series of high profile assassinations between 1963 and 1980. That's the conspiracy theory. However, many people don't realise that MKUltra's origins were at Dachau Concentration Camp and SS interrogation experiments using hypnosis and psychedelic drugs, and that many of the Nazi doctors were later recruited by the CIA and worked on MKUltra.

Washington — The Senate on Tuesday confirmed Jay Clayton to lead the nation's intelligence agencies in a party-line vote that could be the key to unlock a path forward on a key surveillance authority that lapsed more than six weeks ago. The Senate voted 51 to 47 to install Clayton as director of national intelligence. He replaces Bill Pulte, a controversial housing official with no intelligence experience whom President Trump appointed to the role temporarily. The appointment led Democrats to walk away from a bipartisan deal to reauthorize a warrantless spy tool known as Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence...

With Dr. Anthony Fauci back in the news and testifying before @RandPaul's committee, recall this investigation we did. Project Veritas obtained never-before-seen Dept of Defense documents regarding gain-of-function research, the concealment of documents, and the suppression of potential COVID-19 treatments. According to Project Veritas' 2022 reporting, the documents contradicted Dr. Fauci's testimony before Congress. According to the documents, the Dept of Defense rejected EcoHealth Alliance's proposed coronavirus research because it was deemed "too dangerous" and "too close" to violating the gain-of-function research moratorium. According to the documents, the research later proceeded through NIAID under Dr. Fauci's leadership. Video Transcript SummaryDetailed...

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says he was reassured in a phone call with his Ukrainian counterpart Andrii Sybiha that Ukraine’s attack on an Iranian ship “was unintentional and Ukraine seeks no escalation”. In a post on X, Araghchi wrote that “Iran does not seek escalation either, but made clear any attack on our citizens or interests is unacceptable”. “There must be restitution for losses,” he said. Sybiha earlier described the call as “frank” and “direct”.

Female Priesthood by Stealth? How the Revolution Plans to Bypass Catholic DoctrineThe modernist revolution has learned a painful lesson: it cannot defeat Catholic doctrine head-on. So now it has a smarter plan—leave the dogma in the books while changing everything that gives it life. If this analysis is correct, the battle over women's ordination isn't coming tomorrow. It's already being fought through liturgy, bureaucracy, and the courts. And that's precisely what makes it so dangerous.The impossibility of formally modifying the doctrine on female ordination is leading some ecclesial circles to pursue the same result through liturgy, canon law and even...

Vatican calls for representatives of ‘other religions’ in next phase of synodal implementationNew Synod guidelines call for representatives of 'other religions' in local ‘assemblies’ and leadership roles for lay Catholics as part of an ongoing ‘transformation’ of Church governance.The Vatican has issued new guidelines for the next stage of the Synod of Synodality calling on dioceses to involve representatives of other religions, deepen permanent synodal structures, and evaluate broader leadership roles for lay Catholics.On July 27, the General Secretariat of the Synod published a new 19-page document entitled “Recollecting,” providing bishops and diocesan synodal teams with detailed instructions for preparing...

The US military says it intercepted multiple missiles launched by Iran, marking the first reported Iranian attack on an American target since President Donald Trump declared over the weekend that he would halt strikes following two weeks of fighting. “Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps forces launched multiple ballistic missiles from Iran in an attempted surprise attack on US forces based in the Middle East,” Central Command (CENTCOM) writes on X, adding that “all Iranian missiles were successfully intercepted.”

[Catholic Caucus] Liturgical Reform Case Study: the Catholic City of BaltimoreCarefully written histories can serve as antidotes to grand narratives pushing particular agendas. As the old saying goes, “the devil is in the details,” suggesting that pesky facts can undermine self-congratulatory stories of progress. Hanael Bianchi’s A Liberal Revolution: The Implementation of Vatican II in the Archdiocese of Baltimore (Os Justi Press, 2026) raises numerous points to challenge the heroic narrative of Vatican II and in the process, poses timely questions for American Catholics still living in a Church that often seems teetering on the brink of collapse. Advocates of...

Video aired on social platform X and verified by Reuters showed a man...

“Street of Dreams,” the new single from U2, is a perfect piece of Christian joy. This year marks the 50th anniversary of the band’s formation in 1976, and in the popular culture it’s hard to name many superstars who have so powerfully preached the gospel. “Street of Dreams” is recognizably Catholic. The video was shot in Mexico City, with the band performing their new song atop a school bus graffitied by Mexican artist Chavis Mármol. Images included a statue of the Virgin Mary, a street procession including a large cross, and a huge picture of Our Lady of Guadalupe. Comments...

As COVID cases and deaths began to soar in the spring of 2020, America desperately needed a trustworthy public-health leader. Instead, we got Dr. Anthony Fauci — and now his diary entries from that time are showing just how incredibly unworthy of the nation’s trust he truly was.Time and again, his private notes contradict what he was telling the world at the very same time, and the stories he’s spun up since to protect his unearned reputation.For starters, he insisted time and again that the “lab leak hypothesis” was a wacky conspiracy theory, that the virus had jumped naturally from...

Israel, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Iraq reported drone attacks in their territory Monday amid a lull in US air strikes against Iran, after nearly two weeks of fighting between both sides. The Israel Defense Forces said Monday morning that it shot down two drones over the Jordan border, near the Dead Sea, adding that the drones did not cross into Israeli territory. Their origin was under investigation, the army said. Saudi Arabia’s defense ministry, meanwhile, said it shot down drones aimed at petroleum targets, some in its eastern province and others in the capital Riyadh. It said the drones had...

The Washington Free Beacon has done some exceptional reporting on Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed’s past connections with the Muslim Brotherhood. Between March 23 and April 6, 2019, he headlined four private luxury yacht fundraisers for an Islamic nonprofit organization linked to the Muslim Brotherhood. One of those events hosted a speaker who has urged Muslims to “stand with” terrorist outfits Hamas and Hezbollah and stop “condemning antisemitism and condemning terrorism.” Left-wing Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed headlined a series of luxury yacht fundraisers for an Islamic nonprofit linked to the Muslim Brotherhood, including one that took place on “one...

The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals handed the Trump administration a bit of another win on Tuesday, unanimously affirming D.C. District Judge Carl Nichols' denial of a preliminary injunction in a case regarding President Trump's March executive order on election integrity I don't mean to undersell it, but I'm calling it "a bit of" a win because it's procedural — one that does not hold that the EO is lawful (or unlawful). Instead, the appellate court agreed with the district court's determination that the plaintiffs in these consolidated cases (Democrat Party organizations and leaders) were premature with their suit —...
