The 1975 frontman Matty Healy had some choice words for the Malaysian government pertaining to its extreme anti-LGBTQ laws while performing in the country’s capital city, Kuala Lumpur, on July 21. “I made a mistake. When we were booking shows, I wasn’t looking into it. I don’t see the xxxx point… of inviting the 1975 to a country and then telling us who we can have sex with,” Healy said before cutting the concert, a headlining slot at Good Vibes Festival, short. “I’m sorry if that offends you, and you’re religious… but your government are a bunch of xxxx r——....

I want to preface this with the understanding that this is not a discussion of party politics, it’s an assessment of our chances of survival against an evil foe. The conclusions I come to are political, but only in the sense of what is possible in a chaotic and dangerous time. You understand that under communism, any threat of exposing the corruption of the government or individual officials is considered a threat to the state, right? This is how the exposure of Biden’s criminal activity is being presented by the Democrats, who are simply communists and who only know how...

The tragedy of sexual-reassignment surgery has a terrifying history.The popularization of medically sanctioned sexual mutilation began with well-known sexual perversion advocate, Alfred Kinsey.Kinsey contended that people are “sexual from birth” and experimented on babies in the 1940s and 50s.

“Sound of Freedom,” the movie of the moment, has a message first, and a story second. Its message is to get us to care more about the horrors of child sex trafficking. It does that by showing queasy sequences of kids in danger, being carted around by slimy adults, and making us remember everyone’s faces. Then it gives us a weary hero, Tim Ballard, an American man whose superpower is that he cares. This father and husband cares so much that he leaves his job at Homeland Security ten months before earning a pension. Instead of only catching pedophiles, as...

FBI officials improperly searched a foreign intelligence database for information on a U.S. Senator, a state senator and a state judge, according to an unsealed court opinion released Friday. The improper queries of the surveillance collection tool, which allegedly occurred last year -- could further roil an ongoing push by the Biden Administration to have the Section 702 program reauthorized before it is set to expire by the end of this year. The disclosures come even as the FBI said it has reported significant improvements in oversight to help curb further abuse of what intelligence officials argue is an essential...

"And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he so cried out, and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the Son of God." "The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying, "Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created."

He discussed his story of resilience and learning to accept himself for who he is for the first time with Fox News Digital. Kobe, whose name is being withheld for privacy reasons, had "checked every box for what they call a trans adolescent." He was always "effeminate" and loved pink and playing with Barbies. If he was never exposed to gender ideology, he says he'd probably "would...

How one cop with a handgun stopped a heavily armed terrorist’s massacre. Mohamad Barakat packed three long guns, four handguns and a vest with magazines in every pocket, as he drove through Fargo, North Dakota. The Downtown Street fair, which claims over 150,000 visitors, was on its second day and 5 minutes away. The Red River Fair, which recorded nearly as many people, was two days away from ending and 15 minutes away. It’s unknown which of those locations Mohamad might have been headed to use up his 1,800 rounds of ammo and hand grenade, but he never got there....

NEW YORK, NY — After an order from New York Mayor Eric Adams, the Statue of Liberty has been altered to signify that the city is full of illegal immigrants and cannot take any more. Lady Liberty will now hold a sign redirecting migrants to New Jersey. "As the good book says, our cup runneth over here in New York," said Adams to reporters. "So basically, God wants us to stop taking in the poor, the tired, and the huddled masses. That's really what Psalm 23 is all about. That's why we want everyone to go to New Jersey. They...
