Baghdad (AFP) – Like much of the world, Arabs were stunned by Russia's invasion of Ukraine, but shock quickly gave way to indignation over media commentary seen by many as racist against people from the Middle East. "This isn't a place -- with all due respect, you know -- like Iraq or Afghanistan that has seen conflict raging for decades," said Charlie D'Agata of US network CBS News. "This is a relatively civilised, relatively European -- I have to choose those words carefully too -- city where you wouldn't expect that or hope it is going to happen." A day...

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Monday on MSNBC’s “The Rachel Maddow Show” that President Joe Biden was doing a “remarkable” job rallying the world against Russian President Vladimir Putin for his invasion of Ukraine. Clinton said, “It is remarkable. I give President Biden and the Biden administration a lot of credit for leading the world to this point. The strategy of disclosing intelligence, to demonstrate very clearly that Putin was trying to do once again what is done before, use disinformation, false flag operations, in order to try to justify an unjustifiable invasion was incredibly smart. It was...

A second round of talks between Russia and Ukraine has been scheduled for Wednesday, according to local media in both nations. The delegations will meet again after failing to reach peace Monday during negotiations at the Belarusian-Ukrainian border Monday that lasted five hours, Zerkalo Nedeli in Ukraine said.

There are so many complex reasons for Russian President Vladimir Putin to invade Ukraine. And so many outcomes yet to be determined – sadly, all of them bad for the USA. First, let me tell you a personal story that explains the psychology of Putin. I grew up the only white Jewish kid attending an almost all-black middle school and then a 90% black high school. Needless to say, I was the favorite target of bullies. I know liberals haven't a clue about this, but whoever is in the minority in life gets tortured, intimidated and unfortunately, gets their a–...

Screenshot4 Comments The Bidens once again proved that they think of Kamala Harris as the real President when Jill Biden introduced her as “the President of the United States” at a black history month function Monday. “Ladies and gentlemen, the president of the United — the Vice President of the United States!” Biden’s wife said, catching herself mid sentence. “I just said that to make you laugh,” Biden then claimed. Whoops. Ha ha ha. Laugh it off. Watch: VIDEO AT LINK...................... Jill Biden introduces Kamala Harris as "the President," and then claims that she "just said that to make you...

Feeling hot, hot, hot! Corelogic released their January housing report and its a doozy. Home prices nationwide, including distressed sales, increased year over year by 19.1% in January 2022 compared with January 2021. On a month-over-month basis, home prices increased by 1.4% in January 2022 compared with December 2021 (revisions with public records data are standard, and to ensure accuracy, CoreLogic incorporates the newly released public data to provide updated results). But Corelogic is still forecasting only 3.8% YoY growth in 2022. Home prices are hot, hot, hot in all states except North Dakota and New York. The fastest growing...

Republican Adam Steen is running for a seat in the Wisconsin House. But this isn’t just any seat. Steen is running against Wisconsin Speaker Robin Vos. Adam Steen is running against Robin Vos in Wisconsin. He shares the following in his press release.

Today is Fat Tuesday: the day before Lent begins. Depending on where you hail from the day of debauchery is known as Mardi Gras, Carnevale, Carnival, Fasching. As we’ve discussed before, in Detroit it’s known as Paczki Day. There was a time not so long ago that if you didn’t live in Detroit or Chicago or another city with a sizable Poletown you would have never heard of the paczki. It was made just once a year and could only be snagged from authentic Polish bakeries such as Hamtramck’s New Palace, where people still wait in long lines for the...

While all eyes are fixed on Ukraine and wondering if Dementia Joe is going to back our woke, distracted military into World War III, a telling incident at the University of Connecticut demonstrated a feature of our glorious multicultural mosaic that has not often been seen in America before: the jihad between Sunni and Shi’ite Muslims. UConn’s Daily Campus reported that on Monday, February 7, the university “distributed turbahs for Shia Muslim students to use at the Islamic Center of the University of Connecticut and the wellness and meditation space in Homer Babbidge Library, the two main prayer areas...

Everyone - including our enemies - can see he's not in charge. It’s one of the most awkward twenty seconds ever captured on video in a disastrous administration that lurches from one awkward moment to another: when asked “Do you think you may have underestimated Putin?,” Old Joe Biden first continued to stare in the general direction of the question, a slight smirk on his face, expression absolutely unchanged from what it had been before the question was asked. A few seconds later he turned his head to face the camera and, after a few more seconds, grinned sardonically. A...

David Horowitz is the founder of the David Horowitz Freedom Center and the bestselling author of I Can't Breathe: How a Racial Hoax is Killing America. It's been almost two years since the summer of violent Black Lives Matter insurrections and cop-hating crusades. The actions of that summer inflicted $2 billion in property damage in 220 American cities, killed scores of people, and spiked record homicide rates in a dozen municipalities run by Democrat politicians and supporters. This unprecedented eruption of hatred and violence was fueled by a racial hoax claiming that there was an "open season" on black lives,...

NEW YORK, Feb 28 (Reuters) - Former U.S. vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin asked a U.S. court on Monday for a new trial after losing her defamation case against the New York Times (NYT.N) earlier this month, and requested that the judge overseeing the case be disqualified. Palin's attorneys said last week they would take those steps because several jurors received push notifications on their cellphones before deliberations were over about U.S. District Judge Jed Rakoff's decision to dismiss the case regardless of their verdict.

Bruce Thornton is a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the David Horowitz Freedom Center. In 1919 the Versailles Treaty established in international law and global institutions two ideals that have framed Western foreign policy ever since. The first is the elevation of national self-determination and democratic government as the default goods for all the world’s peoples. The other is the notion that supranational institutions, international laws, and multinational treaties and covenants are the best means for adjudicating peacefully international disputes and conflicts. Russia’s current violent, unprovoked invasion of Ukraine is merely the latest example of a century’s worth of repudiation of...

NEW YORK, Feb 23 (Reuters) - Sarah Palin, the former Alaska governor and 2008 Republican U.S. vice presidential candidate, plans to seek a new trial and have the judge disqualified after losing her defamation case against the New York Times. U.S. District Judge Jed Rakoff in Manhattan discussed Palin's plan at a hearing on Wednesday, and said he will issue a written opinion by March 1 explaining why he dismissed her case while jurors were deliberating. He said he would speed up the opinion because of the "fracas" surrounding the dismissal. The unusual hearing came eight days after jurors rejected...

LONDON — Queen Elizabeth II held two virtual audiences after more than a week of suffering cold-like symptoms from Covid-19. Buckingham Palace said the 95-year-old British monarch held virtual sessions with the ambassadors of Chad and Andorra. The queen canceled several sessions last week, so the ones held Tuesday suggest she is recovering. The monarch’s age, Covid-19 diagnosis and a health scare last year caused worry among officials and the public. The palace’s Feb. 20 announcement that Elizabeth had tested positive test for the coronavirus virus prompted concern and get-well wishes from across Britain’s political spectrum. The palace has declined...
