Former President Donald J. Trump will today announce, at a speech in Clive, Iowa, a zero tolerance approach to foreign nationals in the United States supporting terrorism or cheering on groups like Hamas, The National Pulse can reveal. Speaking on Monday afternoon, Trump will state: “we will implement strong ideological screening for ALL immigrants to the United States”.He will add: “No longer will we allow dangerous lunatics, haters, bigots, and maniacs to get residency in our country. If you empathize with Radical Islamic terrorists and extremists, you’re DISQUALIFIED—if you want to abolish the state of Israel, you’re DISQUALIFIED —if you...

@WalkerAmerica It’s funny because this is *exactly* how the Roman Empire thought…

Few outside some bitter Republican circles are still arguing that Donald Trump can’t win the 2024 election. What was conventional wisdom a few months ago has fallen to pieces. Trump has already won the primary, not that Republicans have any reason to regret it: he is outperforming Joe Biden in the polls, despite being indicted four times, a remarkable feat that only Trump could pull off. Notably, Trump ran far behind Biden in 2020, when Trump barely “lost,” something that enraged many liberals at the time. 2024 is not destined to be a repeat: it is a new year with...

Given the occasion, we wouldn't blame Morning Joe for laying it on a bit thick, but there are limits. they were stretched beyond the breaking point when Scarborough hailed Barnicle as "one of the greatest columnists of the 20th century."It's true that for many years, Barnicle's columns at the Boston Globe had an avid following. But Barnicle's days at the Globe came to an ignominious end in 1998, when the paper forced him to resign over plagiarism. One in which he had lifted, without attribution, 80 humorous lines from George Carlin. The second, based on reporting by the Boston Phoenix,...

The Israel Defense Forces says it has struck and killed the regional head of Hamas’s intelligence in the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis. The IDF does not immediately provide further details on the strike, including the name of the senior Hamas member or where the strike took place. The military also publishes a series of videos showing strikes in the Gaza Strip, including the one targeting the senior Hamas member, and on tunnels used by Hamas terrorists and a rocket-launching squad.

Rep. Cori Bush (D-Mo.) is leading a coalition of progressive representatives in calling for President Biden to work toward an immediate ceasefire between Israel and Hamas amid mounting concerns over an Israeli invasion into the Gaza Strip. Israel has promised to eliminate Hamas in response to a barbaric attack earlier this month that left more than 1,400 Israelis dead, and has already pounded the Gaza Strip with missiles while telling residents of northern Gaza to flee for safety. Bush introduced the Ceasefire Now Resolution on Monday urging Biden push for and facilitate a ceasefire and de-escalation of the conflict, and...

Five sports have been added to the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles have after being approved by the International Olympic Committee's executive board. Three of the sports — baseball/softball, cricket and lacrosse — have been played at past Olympic games, while flag football and squash will make their Olympics debut in LA. The five sports are "in line with the American sports culture and will showcase iconic American sports to the world, while bringing international sports to the United States," IOC President Thomas Bach said in a statement. The global sports tournament hasn't been held in the U.S. since the...

The faculty of Middle East Studies at Brown, like most universities in the country, is comprised of the usual suspects. Typically brandishing PhDs from Georgetown, Columbia, or Berkeley, they engage in nonstop caterwauling about Israel. Settler colonialism, apartheid, occupation, Jews have no connection to, or place in, the region and the always popular comparison of Israel to Nazis are a few of the mantras they chant by rote. All are are yawn-inducing for any educated adult, but all are poisoning the college students they purport to “educate”. Brown, however, is entirely unlike, and far worse, than any other university in...

To free much-needed room in shelters, the state of Illinois is helping cover costs for temporary housing for migrants, including $9,000 in rental assistance over a six-month period, Chicago's deputy chief of staff Cristina Pacione-Zayas told Fox32. The funds include assistance with moving costs and a starter kit to furnish apartments. The city has allocated $4 million to help migrants find temporary housing, and the state has contributed another $38 million. It's unclear how many migrants are currently benefiting from the program. 'That rent lasts for six months and ideally people would have started their legal process, secured legal work...

A sophomore at the University of Washington decided to poke fun at former NFL-punter-turned-sports-analyst Pat McAfee. For the past few weeks, McAfee has been hosting a segment during ESPN‘s “College GameDay.” The premise is simple: “One fan will be chosen from the ‘pit’ onsite with the opportunity to attempt a 33-yard field goal.” Students who are successful will be awarded a sum of money from the former punter. Student Greyson Wilhelm ended up being selected Saturday as the show was in Seattle for the game between Washington and Oregon. As McAfee was surprised to see that the potential prize money...

For some people, going to hospital may now be more dangerous than staying at home untreated. Many clinically vulnerable people fear, sometimes with good reason, that a visit to hospital or the doctors’ surgery could be the end of them. Of course, there have always been dangers where sick people gather. But, until now, health services have sought to minimise them. Astonishingly, this is often no longer the case. Across the UK, over the past two years, the NHS has been standing down even the most basic precautions against Covid-19. For example, staff in many surgeries and hospitals are no...

CNN — A federal judge on Monday issued a gag order on former President Donald Trump, limiting what he can say about special counsel Jack Smith’s federal prosecution into his alleged attempt to subvert in the 2020 presidential election.The order restricts Trump’s ability to publicly target court personnel, potential witnesses, or the special counsel and his staff. The order did not impose restrictions on disparaging comments about Washington, DC, – where the jury will take place – or certain comments about the Justice Department at large, both of which the government requested.

Two Swedish football fans have been shot dead in central Brussels by a gunman who allegedly claimed to be an ISIS member. Media reports aired amateur videos showing a man shooting several times near a station using a large weapon. The Swedish national football team was scheduled to play Belgium three miles away at the Heysel Stadium later in the evening. Belgian newspaper Het Laatste Nieuws reports the gunman used an automatic rifle and fled the scene on his scooter. He is reported to have said he was avenging the stabbing of six-year-old US-Palestinian boy.

A family whose members are still "shielding" due to COVID more than three years after the pandemic started said they feel "forgotten" as the rest of the world moves on. Rob Boxall and his family, who live in the U.K., said that visitors have to isolate for two weeks before the family can see them, as SWNS, the British news service, reported. Boxall's wife, Mandy, has had seven COVID jabs — but still reportedly has no protection from the coronavirus.

A New York City public school math teacher has come under fire for sharing his staunch, anti-Israel views and even sharing a photo of a Hamas paraglider on Facebook along with his support of Palestine. Mohammad Jehad Ahmad, a math teacher at Gotham Tech High School in Queens, shared the paraglider-image on his Facebook page over the weekend. He had already slammed NYC's public schools chancellor David Banks for condemning Hamas' attack against Israel on October 7th, and tweeted that Israel was a 'terror state' that upholds white supremacy. It remains unclear if the city's Department of Education has disciplined...

Antonio Brown was arrested in Florida over the weekend ... just days after his ex told TMZ Sports she wanted him put behind bars over unpaid child support. According to jail records, Brown was booked at 12 AM on Sunday in Broward County, Fla. ... and released a short time later.
