    Fighting in Russia's Belgorod region entered a second day on Tuesday, and its governor told residents who fled after a cross-border incursion of armed fighters from Ukraine that it was still not safe to return to their homes. Monday's incursion, apparently involving armoured vehicles, was the biggest raid into Russia since the war began 15 months ago, though details including the number of fighters involved, their affiliation and the extent of any clashes, could not be independently confirmed. Russian authorities evacuated residents from the region's Graivoron district after the raiding forces claimed to have captured the border town of Kozinka...

With each passing year, the number of slain grows. In just the first 100 days of this year, “no fewer than 1,041 defenseless Christians were hacked to death by...

    New footage shows a Chicago police station filled with mattresses and dozens of illegal migrants, as the city struggles to house the hundreds of border crossers arriving there each day. Officials in Chicago have said they cannot afford to rent hotel rooms for the more than 8,000 migrants who have arrived in their city and have pushed for more federal funds to cover costs. Due to the lack of available shelters, some migrants have turned to police stations for a safe place to sleep. Videos and photos showed hallways at a Chicago precinct littered with mattresses and personal belongings with...

    Just a question of curiousity. I understand, from the intents of the Founding Fathers that this should be impossible due to dual loyalties, but is there anything stopping a natural born US citizen from becoming Prime Minister of Canada and then coming back and becoming President of the United States?

    Belgian Prime Minister Alexander De Croo on Monday (22 May) criticized the idea of not growing the economy for environmental reasons, joining calls to stop environmental and health-related regulation to prevent overburdening companies. As EU industry transforms towards net-zero emissions, it should not be burdened with additional regulation, De Croo (Open VLD/Renew) told a conference hosted by the Wirtschaftsrat der CDU, a business group with close ties to the German conservative CDU party (EPP affiliated). “Let’s not try to do everything at the same time. Let us focus on what is the most important,” De Croo said, calling for a...

    An IRS agent working on criminal tax probe involving Hunter Biden says the DOJ passed him over for a promotion and removed him from the investigation for flagging alleged favorable treatment given to the president's son. The male agent, who has not been identified, filed a formal complaint Monday into what he claims was backlash he suffered for acting as a whistleblower into alleged unfair treatment. His complaint comes days after the Department of Justice removed the entire team probing Hunter Biden's tax returns. That removal forms part of the latest complaint, and allegedly came 'in retaliation against a whistleblower...

    A judge on Monday dismissed the only remaining legal claim in Republican Kari Lake's challenge of her loss in last year's race for Arizona governor, affirming the election of Democrat Katie Hobbs. Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Peter A. Thompson said Lake failed to prove her claim that Maricopa County did not verify signatures on mail ballots as required by law. Lake was among the most vocal of last year's Republican candidates promoting former President Donald Trump's election lies, which she made the centerpiece of her campaign. She has built a loyal following among Trump supporters and is openly considering...

    Anson Frericks, the former president of sales and distribution for Anheuser-Busch, forecasted that Bud Light and other brands marketed by the firm would struggle until executives make clear that they prioritize serving customers rather than engaging in social issues. Bud Light garnered controversy among conservatives after the brand partnered with influencer Dylan Mulvaney, a man who claims to be a woman and documented his purported gender transition on social media. Frericks, who spent a decade as an executive at Anheuser-Busch before he departed to launch Strive Asset Management last year, said in a Monday interview with The Daily Wire that...

    Alliance Defending Freedom attorneys representing two college students filed a federal lawsuit Thursday against Michigan State University officials for forcing the students to pay fees to advance political messages that the officials favor and that conflict with the deeply held beliefs of the students, who are required to pay the fees.
