'It was about making a point — that there are consequences to discriminating against Indians for their "Indianness."' A 35-year-old Indian student says he was told that curry stinks, but sandwiches do not. Aditya Prakash and his fiancée, Urmi Bhattacheryya, won a settlement of $200,000 from the University of Colorado Boulder in a story dripping with progressivism. The BBC described the ordeal as a case of "food racism" while outlet Indian Express said Prakash was the "target of racism" over his microwaved food.

REPORTER: “Any comment on Don Lemon charging into the church in Minnesota?” GAVIN NEWSOM: “What? Don Lemon? Into a church? I literally know nothing about it.” Holy smokes… This is not a serious person.

@RepThomasMassie After rampant fraud was uncovered at daycare centers in Minnesota and elsewhere, a judge blocked President Trump’s effort to put guardrails on those programs. I’ve offered this amendment to circumvent the judge’s ruling and empower the President to withhold fraudulent funds.

The player meets Amelia early in the story. She is introduced as a classmate and, according to the plot, is involved in political activism linked to right-wing movements. Suddenly, timelines were filled with Amelia fan art, edits, and screenshots. Rather than being seen as a ‘dangerous nationalist extremist’, as the creators intended, she became an ironic hero—a kind of mascot for resisting the very ideas the game was designed to promote.

With all that’s happening in the world, why am I writing about the video of a Karen repeatedly cackling “F off” to a cluster of duck hunters? Because it proves the broader point that leftists cannot present fact-based arguments about the issues successfully. Even the few who can choose not to because the goal isn’t to win the debate but to prosecute the violent overthrow of America. Screaming, swearing, violence, and mayhem facilitate that more than a genteel conversation in the public square. But first, a confession: I’m no prude when it comes to swearing and have been known to...

A financial group chief executive is accused of running the largest Ponzi scheme in Georgia’s history to fund a lavish lifestyle, which included purchasing a yacht, a multi-million-dollar condo in Mexico, luxury vehicles, jewelry, and chartering private jets. Todd Burkhalter, the CEO of Drive Planning LLC., pleaded guilty to defrauding over 2,000 victims for more than $380 million between September 2020 and June 2024, according to US Attorney Theodore S. Hertzberg on Wednesday. “Unbelievably, Burkhalter shamelessly continued to scam his victims even while under federal investigation,” Hertzberg said. “Today’s guilty plea is just the first step in holding Burkhalter accountable...

Under Trump, the media elites treat the executive branch as an evil empire, but under Biden, journalists were so eager to help promote the Democrats that they sometimes offered their sources the ability to edit their articles to their liking. New documents shared exclusively with MRC Business just exposed the latest example of elitist media hacks violating every modicum of journalistic integrity to genuflect to the Biden administration’s whims and wishes. Forbes contributor Rhett Buttle and his associate Abdullah Kahn offered to delay a story schmoozing President Joe Biden’s Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Michael Regan on his “environmental justice” focus...

Syria’s Al Qaeda regime is massacring Kurds to free imprisoned ISIS terrorists, state sponsors of Hamas in Turkey and Qatar are being named to boards running Gaza and thousands of democracy protesters are being massacred in Iran while Al Jazeera defends the regime. This isn’t American foreign policy, but it is Qatar’s foreign policy. The White House’s foreign policy in the Muslim world is now virtually identical to Qatar’s foreign policy apart from Israel. And as thousands die in Iran after empty promises of support, there is a bigger picture here of institutional capture by a tiny and powerful Islamic...

Chris Cuomo warns CNN’s Scott Jennings over his refusal to stop using the term ‘illegals’: ‘Don’t be a tough guy’ NewsNation host Chris Cuomo warned CNN analyst Scott Jennings Wednesday that if he keeps using the term “illegal aliens,” somebody might beat him up. Cuomo accused Jennings of acting like a “bully” and a “tough guy” when he dismissed activist Cameron Kasky’s assertion that “you don’t get to say the word illegals anymore,” during a recent CNN panel. Jennings refused to stop using the term and repeatedly asked Kasky, “How are you going to enforce your edict on me?” “What...

A tree-mendous freeze. Forecasters are warning that expected subzero temperatures could cause trees to explode as a brutal cold snap is expected to wallop most of the country in the coming days. Trees may split and burst across the Midwest and Northern Plains Friday and Saturday as a bitter Arctic blast from Canada sends temperatures plunging to roughly 20 degrees below zero, according to social media meteorologist Max Velocity. “EXPLODING TREES are possible in the Midwest and Northern Plains on Friday and Saturday, as temperatures are forecasted to fall 20 degrees BELOW zero!” the YouTuber, who has about 1.55 million...

Former Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, a potential White House hopeful for 2028, said on Wednesday that he wants a mandatory retirement age of 75 for the president and people holding office in other branches of government. “You’re 75 years old: done,” Emanuel, a Democrat, said at a Center for American Progress event. “And that would be in the legislative branch, it’d be in the executive branch — including the Cabinet — and it’d also be in the Supreme Court, and all the federal courts.” Emanuel, 66, acknowledged that he would be affected by this proposal if he happens to be...

Newly-minted Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger was compared to a 'Bond villain' after enacting far-left policies on her first day in office despite campaigning as a moderate Democrat. Spanberger, a former Congresswoman and CIA officer, stormed to a blowout victory over sitting Lieutenant Governor Winsome Earle-Sears in a momentum boost for Democrats. However, many conservatives have been horrified by some of Spanberger's first week executive orders, which includes reducing cooperation with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Spanberger campaigned on the order.

A state of emergency was declared in several states ahead of a massive winter storm that could bring more than a foot of snow to much of the country. More than 200 million people across parts of 30 states now face winter storm warnings from Friday through Sunday. Meteorologists were expected to issue more within the next couple of days and upgrade some to winter storm warnings as the storm approaches. When the blizzard hits, temperatures are expected to plunge as much as 30 degrees below normal in the Dakotas and Michigan, with the wind chill falling between 35 and...

Miami club owners who vowed to probe Nick Fuentes’ Nazi night out revealed to have partied with far-right revelers instead. A Miami nightclub solemnly vowed to investigate after a group of white supremacists and accused sex-traffickers were given VIP treatment and danced to Kanye West’s song “Heil Hitler” while enjoying bottle service. But Page Six has learned that the club’s owners were partying with the vile posse. A group of extremists partied at a Miami nightclub called Vendome this weekend. @Antunes1/X At least it should make the investigation easy! Over the weekend, video circulated of reviled internet personality Nick Fuentes,...
