A senior ally of President Vladimir Putin warned on Friday that Moscow would regard any move by Britain to deploy a military contingent to Ukraine as a declaration of war against Russia. Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, now deputy chairman of Russia's Security Council, made the comments in response to a visit by British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak to Kyiv to announce an increase in military funding to help Ukraine purchase new military drones. "I hope that our eternal enemies - the arrogant British - understand that deploying an official military contingent to Ukraine would be a declaration of war...

The Mayor and city officials kicked out the low-income disabled adults who paid rent, and moved in some “homeless” while the renovations were taking place. The hotel used to house 180 paying residents. The newly named St. Clare has 134 remodeled studio apartments. How fortunate for the ‘vagrants, ‘criminals,’ ‘druggies,’ and ‘junkies’ who have chosen this lifestyle. Each apartment has a bathroom and kitchenette. The first group of 80 residents will start moving in this week. The final 54 residents are delayed due to supply chain problems, according to the city.

In March, in a joint resolution, Congress directed the president to terminate military hostilities against Iran unless authorized by Congress. ..President Donald Trump vetoed the measure, and Congress lacked the votes to override. During recent decades, such has often been the end result of legislative efforts to limit presidential war making... The 1973 War Powers Resolution took effect when Congress’s actual powers to declare war, appropriate funds, and organize the armed forces were at a low point.... Consecutive administrations have expanded the executive branch’s authority to use military force, and Congress has often become sidelined in the process. This reality...

A top university in the United States is now offering a class called “Afrochemistry,” with the intention of explaining alleged “inequities in chemistry and chemical education.” As the Daily Caller reports, the class will be taught at Rice University from January 8th to April 19th, 2024. The class has no final exam. “Students will apply chemical tools and analysis to understand Black life in the U.S. and students will implement African American sensibilities to analyze chemistry,” the course description states. “Diverse historical and contemporary scientists, intellectuals, and chemical discoveries will inform personal reflections and proposals for addressing inequities in chemistry...

Mount Vernon Police District – The dedicated efforts of our Auto Crimes Enforcement (ACE) detectives led to the arrest of two, the recovery of a stolen vehicle, and the discovery of a key programming tool. On January 8, ACE detectives and a K9 officer found an unoccupied stolen Dodge Charger in the Groveton area of Mt. Vernon. The detectives swiftly implemented an investigation and devised a plan of action after learning that the vehicle had been stolen two days prior from La Plata, Maryland. During surveillance, the detectives observed a second vehicle approaching the stolen Charger, eventually parking behind it....

Washington — Texas state officials this week abruptly blocked federal U.S. Border Patrol agents from entering and patrolling a public area in the border town of Eagle Pass where they typically first encounter migrants who cross the Rio Grande illegally, two U.S. officials told CBS News on Thursday. After seizing control of Shelby Park in Eagle Pass, Texas National Guard units deployed by Republican Gov. Greg Abbott have prevented Border Patrol agents from entering the area, the federal officials said. Border Patrol has used the park in recent weeks to hold migrants in an outdoor staging area before they are...

The Adams administration is weighing a plan to impose curfews on migrant shelters across the city, the Post has learned, after neighbors raised complaints of people going door to door begging for food and clothes. Molly Schaeffer, the mayor’s director of Asylum Seeker Operations, said curfews were “something they were looking into” during a meeting with local lawmakers on Thursday. The issue was raised at the meeting by Queens Councilwoman Joann Ariola, who pointed out that a 10 p.m. curfew was already being enforced at homeless shelters across the city. The councilwoman suggested similar measures for migrants might mitigate the...

If the Left’s 2024 strategy is to divide and conquer, you’re on the hit list. Elected Democrats and their activist handlers are surging forward with plans to implement multi-billion-dollar slavery reparations bills first in blue states, then nationwide. The latest push came on Jan. 8, when socialist Rep. Cori Bush (D–MO) introduced her $14 trillion “Reparations NOW” bill, which has made its way from the fringe of the far Left to the Democratic Party plank in just a few years. While cynically bribing black voters ahead of the November presidential election is the obvious goal, Democrats are also stoking racial...

This week we sat down with Joe + Serena Wailes, the parents of an 11-year-old girl shocked to discover on her school trip that she had been assigned to share a bed with a boy who identified as a trans girl.

What is there to say about the World Economic Forum? Climate czar John Kerry is a frequent flyer to the WEF, where they dine on beef while lecturing the world to stop eating meat to save the climate. They've unveiled the city of the future, a utopia called the "five-minute city" where millions of people live in a miles-long shopping mall enclosed in glass walls with everyone stacked on top of each other and that is 100 percent solar and wind-powered. (Projected completion date: 2045.) It's hard to say which is worse: the UN or the WEF. Both should be...

I have seen recommendations for including chia seeds in the diet for a lot of health reasons. One of the biggest reasons for me is that chia has a LOT of fiber, which most people don't get enough of. So I jumped into the trend. I mainly eat them in chia "pudding" I prepare the day before. really like this for breakfast with some sliced almonds and/or berries. Any other Freepers out there on board?

The Senate GOP leadership’s draft border deal with the White House would reward illegal migration and encourage more foreign graduates to take jobs from American graduates, says the Immigration Accountability Project. “There’s nothing in there that [restricts immigration], in fact, it’s just going to encourage more people to come,” said Chris Chmielenski, president of the Immigration Accountability Project, adding: It essentially authorizes the Biden administration to continue to catch and release people into the country. It authorizes them to give them work permits [to illegal migrants and] authorizes them to grant parole [legal status] to everybody that they’re able to...

WASHINGTON (AP) — First lady Jill Biden says her husband’s age is an “asset,” as President Joe Biden — at 81 already the oldest American leader in history — faces persistent questions from voters about his decision to seek another term. In an interview with MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” released Thursday, Jill Biden responded to those concerned the Democratic president is too old, saying, “I say his age is an asset.” “He has wisdom. He has experience,” she continued. “He knows every leader on the world stage. He’s lived history. He knows history. He’s thoughtful in his decisions. He is the...

Johnson hasn't ruled out a short-term spending bill in place of his agreement with Schumer but House conservatives don't support that either. While the U.S. Treasury Department reports a $1.8 trillion deficit for fiscal year 2023, House Speaker Mike Johnson's speakership might be in peril as conservative backlash to his spending deal with Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer grows louder. According to the Treasury Department, the federal government has already run a $510 billion deficit in the first three months of fiscal year 2024. Johnson hasn't ruled out moving forward with a short-term spending bill in place of his agreement...

A high-ranking Republican in the House of Representatives said he's no longer making appearances "Fox & Friends" because one of its hosts has been critical of the GOP's investigation into President Joe Biden. Republican Rep. James Comer, the chair of the House Oversight Committee, made the comments Tuesday evening in an interview with Newsmax's Eric Bolling after the host mentioned his "concern is when the media, especially the conservative media, starts siding with the Bidens." Bolling specifically highlighted a comment made by Doocy on the show Monday morning where he mentioned his skepticism regarding allegations from Comer and the Republican...

Do you remember the old Sam Hyde bit? “State Enforced homosexuality”? GB News: Parents are facing up to seven years in jail if they don’t let their children change gender, under new plans put forward by the SNP. Scotland is looking at implementing a ban on conversion therapy, which would criminalise any actions designed to “change or suppress” the gender identity of another individual, and any action that causes another individual physical harm or psychological distress.

In a barren field of sagebrush alongside a road through the Osoyoos Indian Band, Chief Clarence Louie stands atop a concrete pad and surveys the rubble in front of him. This used to be the front entrance to St. Gregory's, the simple wooden church that hosted countless community celebrations, dinners and religious services, on the reserve just north of the Canada-U.S. border in central B.C. The church had stood for more than one hundred years as a symbol of the Catholic faith, but on June 21, 2021, someone burned it to the ground. Louie recalled being forced to go to...

There's a lot of noise about who should be the GOP nominee, and that's being sorted out as the primaries begin, but Bill O'Reilly has very effectively put the election into perspective as far as what's at stake, not to mention the ridiculous fearmongering from the Left. Bottom line: The country can NOT take any more of the Biden train wreck and intentional destruction of the republic (while ironically saying Republicans threaten "norms and institutions." Watch: Bill O’Reilly has reached his absolute limit. pic.twitter.com/FkuGovnDHs — Big Fish (@BigFish3000) January 11, 2024 In a word: BINGO. I miss this guy. He...
