Following his departure, the WWE disclosed multiple expenses that McMahon hadn’t...

“IF NECESSARY” House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) is willing to open an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden if “necessary,” House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan (R-OH) exclusively told Breitbart News. The mechanism of an impeachment inquiry is a congressional probe that usually occurs before a potential articles of impeachment vote. If the House approves the impeachment articles, they are conveyed to the Senate for approval. (snip) “If at some point it’s necessary … that we have to go to an impeachment inquiry, … [I think] he [McCarthy] is willing to do that,” he told Breitbart News. “But right now,...

Former President Donald Trump attorney John Lauro sees at least one silver lining in the Department of Justice’s latest indictment of his client: Trump will get to litigate why he believes the 2020 presidential election was fraudulent. “In 2020 Mr. Trump’s campaign had a few weeks to gear up and present evidence, and it was very difficult,” Lauro told Fox News host Bret Baier Tuesday night after special counsel Jack Smith announced the 45th president was being indicted in relation to his questioning of the integrity of the 2020 election. “We now have the ability in this case to issue...

UN bodies receive millions from 'terror charities' Over the last year, four United Nations agencies have partnered with and accepted $7 million from the terrorism-affiliated NGO Qatar Charity. The United Nations has a terrorism problem. Last month, its Security Council refused to designate as a global terrorist the architect behind the 2008 Mumbai attacks, which killed 170 people. Just over two weeks ago, the UN’s Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese, who has previously appeared on the Hezbollah-affiliated Al Mayadeen channel, issued a report that was praised by the terrorist group Hamas. Until today, the UN has actively failed to define terrorism,...

[Catholic Caucus] Announcing the Next DC-Arlington Pilgrimage in Support of the Traditional Latin Mass on September 9!Before 2021, the Diocese of Arlington and Archdiocese of Washington, D.C. demonstrated precisely how Summorum Pontificum-- allowing the widespread celebration of the Traditional Latin Mass-- injected life and energy into the Catholic Church. The TLM was regularly celebrated at nearly 30 parishes across the two dioceses. It attracted growing numbers of faithful Catholics, supported the reverent celebration of the Novus Ordo, and nurtured vocations. When Traditionis Custodes was issued in July 2021, we were stunned by the vitriol demonstrated by Pope Francis in his...

(Last Updated On: August 3, 2023) NATIONAL WATERMELON DAY | AUGUST 3 National Watermelon Day on August 3 recognizes the refreshing summertime treat enjoyed at picnics and fairs! And since watermelon is 92% water, it is very satisfying in the summer heat. #NationalWatermelonDay This vine-like flowering plant originated in southern Africa. While the word watermelon refers to both the fruit and the plant to botanists, the plant is a pepo. The pepo is a berry with a thick rind and fleshy center. Interestingly, pepos develop from an inferior ovary. They are also characteristic of the Cucurbitaceae, a scientific term for...

"Our approach to managing the borders securely and humanely even within our fundamentally broken immigration system is working. Unlawful entries between ports of entry along the southwest border have consistently decreased by more than half compared to the peak before the end of Title 42.” Thus proclaimed Alejandro Mayorkas, Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), in his testimony to the House Judiciary Committee on July 26. How did Mayorkas get unlawful entries to decrease by “more than half”? Simply by rerouting the flow, by figuring out “legal” ways to funnel many migrants through ports of entry, so they...

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Two teens have been arrested in a July shooting where a 9-year-old girl was shot in the throat, Jacksonville Sheriff T.K. Waters announced Wednesday.

[Catholic Caucus] Sacrilegious Disaster: the Opening Mass for World Youth DayAbove: the “carefully crafted spirituality itinerary” graphically depicted from the WYD website. After a brief hiatus due to “COVID” (which I prefer to pronounce by its traditional spelling, communism) the World Youth Day (WYD) is back!This year it is taking place in Lisbon, Portugal and the opening Mass was celebrated on August 1 with a crowd of tens of thousands of pilgrims. Before I dive into all the fruits of the New Springtime that were on display, I would like to accentuate the positives.In the first place, it is edifying...

Zachary Rehl, a J6 political prisoner and former Proud Boys leader who was found guilty of seditious conspiracy, vows to fight for his innocence until he is “fully exonerated and so no one has to live in fear of persecution for exercising their 1st Amendment rights again.” The 37-year-old Marine Corps veteran was apprehended by the Federal Bureau of Investigations on April 17, 2021, for “his role in the Capitol riot.” His wife was six months pregnant when the bureau’s stormtroopers terrorized their home in a pre-dawn raid, shock and trauma reaped by the bureau that nearly resulted in the...

Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Thursday called for Russia to stop using food as a “weapon” in the war in Ukraine after Moscow suspended a deal to allow for the export of grain from the embattled country. Blinken told Good Morning America that the grain deal reached last year between Kyiv and Moscow allowed for the equivalent of 18 billion loaves of bread to get out to the world, but Russia “tore up that deal,” which many nations see as imperiling their food supply.

Republican presidential candidate Chris Christie suggested that some of his GOP rivals are “auditioning” for roles in former President Trump’s next administration, as they continue to defend the former president amid his expanding legal troubles. “In the end, I think that some of them are unwilling to do it because they don’t think it’s politically smart, some of them are auditioning for a potential Trump administration, and I think some of them just aren’t able to do it,” Christie said in an interview with Kara Swisher released on Thursday. “They just physically aren’t equipped to be able to be in...

As the theme of this year's Pride Month — "We're coming for your children" — echoes, more and more parents are speaking out against their kids' exposure to divisive Critical Race Theory, pornographic materials in school libraries, and exploring with six-year-olds how they can change their sex. By this spring, more than half of U.S. states had passed laws prohibiting curricula promoting radical ideologies, including Florida, New Hampshire, and Tennessee. Because the strategy of the progressive education establishment depends on forming today's captive schoolkids into tomorrow's leftist foot soldiers, they've moved to DEFCON 1. Moms for Liberty is one of...

As someone who has dealt with the back end of trafficking, namely the people who make it to the United States and are able to somehow find a lawyer to help them seek asylum and protection, I can confirm that many of the scenes depicted in “Sound of Freedom” echo what people have told me in the past about how they made their way to the U.S. So many of these people, both old clients and acquaintances, have talked about the subterfuge used to lure people into the sex trades, the random violence and brutality of the human traffickers, and...

I NEED ONE MORE INDICTMENT TO ENSURE MY ELECTION!

Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.), who has railed against the nation’s record-high debt, on Thursday called Fitch Ratings’ downgrade of the U.S. credit rating from AAA to AA+ a “historic failure of leadership by both political parties and the executive branch.” Manchin, who is flirting with a presidential run as a third-party candidate backed by the group No Labels, has regularly criticized what he views as the lack of bipartisan cooperation in Washington. He blamed the nation’s latest credit downgrade on the inability of Republicans and Democrats in Congress and President Biden to make significant progress in addressing the nation’s $32...
