Fourteen House Democrats voted to denounce the Biden administration‘s “open-borders policies” on Wednesday amid a surge in crossings and blue cities around the country getting overwhelmed with migrants. The group of party defectors joined with all voting Republicans in passing a resolution introduced by Rep. Nathaniel Moran (R-TX). Twelve Democrats and nine Republicans did not vote. In addition to denouncing the policies, the resolution condemned the “national security and public safety crisis along the southwest border” and urged President Joe Biden to “end his administration’s open-borders policies.” Among the 14 who broke ranks was Rep. Colin Allred (D-TX), a former...

MSNBC analyst and weekend host Katie Phang was a guest on Wednesday's edition of the network's Deadline White House. Phang revealed that "I am friends with E. Jean Carroll, but it doesn't color my legal analysis." Of course not! But Phang had the chutzpah to claim that Carroll—the woman who won a $5 million judgment from Donald Trump in her first defamation suit against him, and is sure to win much more in a second suit—"would have been happy to just get her day in court."Okay then! We'll look forward to E. Jean Carroll announcing the charity of her choice...

Secretary of State Antony Blinken sat for an interview with New York Times columnist Thomas L. Friedman at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, on Wednesday. It was not reassuring. region has been aflame since Hamas attacked Israel on October 7, 2023, murdering 1,200 Israelis, kidnapping hundreds more, and spiriting away the innocents into an underground hell. ... War rages. What most interests Tom Friedman, however, are the chances for a Palestinian state. He says it's the key to peace in the Middle East—a position from which he has not wavered, despite all evidence to the contrary, for more...

A New York lawmaker wants the federal government to push a $14 trillion reparations measure. The measure is touted by “Squad” member Rep. Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y., who wants the federal government to be held accountable for slavery and the aftermath of it, according to the Journal News. Bowman cited the federal government’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the “space race” endeavor as examples that would make the measure feasible. “When COVID was destroying us, we invested in the American people in a way that kept the economy afloat,” said Bowman. “The government can invest the same way in reparations...

"It’s the right thing to do for the migrants and the city of New York”... Remember all the outrage over the school that kicked out students into ‘remote’ classes to make way for housing migrants? That’s the literal state of the New York State budget. Gov. Hochul has unveiled a budget with $2.4 billion allocated for caring for the mass of illegal alien migrant invaders. While the state budget raises that amount by $500 million, it’s proposing to cut funding for schools in Long Island. A total of 44 Long Island school districts would see decreased state funding next year,...

Political Prisoners at the DC Gulag in Washington DC. Earlier Wednesday The Gateway Pundit was notified that the heating system at the DC Gulag was no longer working. From our friend and contact L.: “I just got two messages from the DC Gulag. One was from Chris: “We have had no heat or hot water for 48 hours. Inside temperature is probably about 55 degrees (no exaggeration). The guards have on hoodies, jackets, and wool winter hats in the c3a pod. No extra blankets have been passed out. Please blast out a message to local news and online. Tell Congress...

WASHINGTON, Saturday, Jan. 16, 1864. There is every likelihood that when the Spring campaign opens in Virginia, it will be under military conditions essentially different from those that have attended either of the former Spring campaigns in that theatre of war. The military map of Virginia is now thoroughly understood. The experience of six campaigns has shown that any single line of manoeuvre that can be taken up with Richmond as the objective point must be indecisive. It is utterly impossible, from the nature of the enemy's lines of retreat, to move by a single line on his communications, without...

ROME — Pope Francis has urged members of the World Economic Forum (WEF) meeting at Davos this week to promote “far-sighted and ethically sound” models of globalization. The World Economic Forum “aims to guide and strengthen political will and mutual cooperation,” the pontiff told them, and “provides an important opportunity for multi-stakeholder engagement to explore innovative and effective ways to build a better world.” The process of globalization has by now “clearly demonstrated the interdependence of the world’s nations and peoples,” the pope said, and thus has “a fundamentally moral dimension.”

Donald Trump won Iowa decisively Monday night. Despite spending little money and time in the state (especially compared to his rivals), Trump won the caucus by 30 points. This was a humiliating defeat for his closest competitor, Ron DeSantis. Despite spending over $30 million on ads and visiting every county, DeSantis only eked out 21 percent of the vote. The Florida governor bet his whole campaign on Iowa, and he came up well short. However, he’s not dropping out. His campaign still insists he’s going to be the next president, but there’s no strategy or plan besides massive amounts of...

House Speaker Mike Johnson said on Wednesday that Joe Biden's presidency is "God's will." The Louisiana Republican and evangelical Christian took over House leadership in October following Kevin McCarthy's tumultuous tenure. Johnson, who has served in Congress since 2016 but whose platform and personal ideologies were not relatively known prior to taking the gavel, has faced scrutiny by some for views characterized by some as "dangerous." He evoked scripture during his October 25 speech, saying: "The Bible is very clear that God is the one that raises up those in authority." He said that Marxism and communism fail because their...

Tallahassee, Fla., January 17, 2024 – Today, the State Board of Education implemented strict regulations to limit the use of public funds for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) programs, activities, and policies in the Florida College System (FCS). The rule adopted by the Board defined, for the first time, DEI and affirmatively prohibits FCS institutions from using state or federal funds to administer programs that categorize individuals based on race or sex for the purpose of differential or preferential treatment. The Board's decision will ensure that taxpayer funds can no longer be used to promote DEI on Florida’s 28 state...

In early December, The Lancet published a peer-reviewed study that sought to prove that the Gaza Ministry of Health casualty counts were largely accurate. Their methodology was to compare the number of deaths per thousand reported by the Gaza Ministry of Health with the number of deaths per thousand of UNRWA employees, which were counted independently by UNRWA and not the Hamas ministry. They found that the two death rates were roughly the same (actually, UNRWA's was higher), indicating that the health ministry was not exaggerating the total number of deaths. The methodology is flawed. It makes an assumption that...

Identity politics has corrupted academic disciplines and produced bad, politically warped forms of knowledge, says Alka Sehgal Cuthbert in Spiked, and even the hard sciences are no longer immune. Here’s an excerpt. Witness the introduction of ‘Afrochemistry’, a new module in Rice University’s undergraduate chemistry degree. Students who choose this module will “apply chemical tools and analysis to understand black life in the U.S.” and “implement African-American sensibilities [eh? How do you “implement” a “sensibility”?] to analyse chemistry”, according to Rice’s website. “No prior knowledge of chemistry or African-American studies is required for engagement in this course,” it assures prospective...

I believed that Republican voters were ready for a new post-Trump chapter of the America First movement. I now believe I was wrong.Those of us who backed Ron DeSantis – or the other Republican candidates – should read the room. Former President Trump winnowed the field effortlessly and then crushed the remaining three candidates in Iowa. He leads in the polls everywhere else. It is time to coalesce and unite behind the clear preference of the GOP grassroots, Donald John Trump.We do not have the luxury of further internal strife and instead must gird for an epic battle this autumn...

A new documentary is exposing the horrors that the transgender movement wreaks upon men, as well as the social and medical-industrial conditions that have led to those horrors.

In a riveting moment at the World Economic Forum, President of Argentina Javier Milei sent shockwaves through the room of globalists, stunning them into silence. His powerful message exposed them for allegedly contributing to the decline of the Western world. “I’m here to tell you that the western world is in danger, and it is endangered because those who are supposed to defend the values of the West are co-opted by a vision of the world that inextricably leads to socialism and thereby to poverty.” – MILEI HEADS TO WEF

‘Our leadership class is poisonous, power mad and dangerous,’ Carlson said. And this is not the case for ‘the people who showed up at the Capitol to protest the theft of their democratic election.’ (LifeSiteNews) – Tucker Carlson promoted a new independent documentary on the January 6, 2021 disturbance that he said “should be the most famous film in the United States” as it “shows you what actually happened at the [U.S.] Capitol” that day. For the last three years, the media and the political “uniparty” made up of Democrats and Republican leadership has worked diligently to project and maintain...
