Donald J. Trump: The drone attack on a U.S. Military Installation in Jordan, killing 3 American Servicemembers, and wounding many more, marks a horrible day for America. My most profound sympathies go to the Families of the Brave Servicemembers we have lost. I ask all Americans to join me in praying for those who have been wounded. This brazen attack on the United States is yet another horrific and tragic consequence of Joe Biden’s weakness and surrender. Three years ago, Iran was weak, broke, and totally under control. Thanks to my Maximum Pressure policy, the Iranian Regime could barely scrape...

Ask any soldier, and they'll tell you that there are fewer scarier things on a battlefield than an enemy sniper. The combination of the unknown with the actual danger elevates snipers to some of the most hated figures in warfare. But snipers are force multipliers, more so when it comes to special operations. Army Rangers, Navy SEALs, Marine Raiders, and Green Berets fight in small numbers, and the snipers within their ranks play a key role. In a team of 12-16 commandos, many will be sniper-qualified, thus maximizing the firepower of the group. US special operations forces are now looking...

Troubled property developer China Evergrande could be liquidated as early as Monday, as a court in Hong Kong hears a winding-up petition against the firm by foreign creditors. The legal proceedings are being brought by Samoa-registered Top Shine, an investor in one of Evergrande's subsidiaries. Reuters news agency reported this week that a group of offshore bondholders also plans to join the petition to liquidate the company's assets. A crackdown three years ago by China on two decades of real estate speculation caused a deepening property crisis and left Evergrande owing $300 billion (€277 billion). Months later, the firm defaulted...

Movsum Samadov, convicted terrorist from Azerbaijan, could have gone quietly on his way.. He had just successfully crossed into the USA through or non-existent border and was part of a group of illegals that was interviewed as to locale of origin. Fortunately for us, Mr. Samadov has a bit of an ego and likes to shit talk the dumb Americans. https://www.independentsentinel.com/possible-convicted-terrorist-threatened-a-journalist-at-the-border/ It turns out that someone was watching. They put a face to a name and came up with Movsum Samadov, Leader of the Azerbaijani Islamic Party (outlawed in Azerbaijan) an Islamist organization allied with Hezbollah and funded by Iran...

Gina Swoboda, an election activist endorsed by former President Donald Trump, has been chosen as the next chair of the Arizona Republican Party, a leadership post that puts her center stage in the battleground state for November's presidential election. Fox10 television in Phoenix reported that Swoboda garnered 67% of the votes at Saturday's state party meeting. The GOP declined to confirm that margin of victory to The Associated Press. Swoboda replaces Jeff DeWit, who was halfway through his two-year term. He resigned Wednesday after a leaked audio recording revealed him offering a job to U.S. Senate candidate Kari Lake and...

Nikki Haley went on Meet the Press on Sunday morning to trash Trump and distance herself from his 74 million voters. Haley is hoping that by slamming Trump on liberal television she will gain more base Democrat voters in the upcoming contests. During questioning, Haley told Kristen Welker that she absolutely trusts the New York City jury who awarded serial liar E. Jean Carroll $83 million for defamation in a rape case she filed but is not even aware of the season, month, or year it took place. As reported earlier – Here’s what you need to know about E....

The incident occurred around 2.30pm at the Whole Foods on Grand Avenue and 8th Street. Zacharias said she was sitting with Onyx by her feet under a table when a stranger called out to him, and then grabbed his leash and walked off with him. She initially thought it was a mistake, adding: 'I didn’t think that somebody was stealing my dog. 'I thought it was a misunderstanding, so I said, "That’s my dog. Excuse me," and she wasn’t listening.'. The thief jumped into a waiting car and Zacharias tried to get in behind her but she said there were...

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and special prosecutor Nathan Wade are expected to be subpoenaed due to allegations of an affair and inappropriate financial ties. These allegations have arisen in the context of a case against Donald Trump and his co-defendants. The case will have a hearing to address these claims, including conflicts of interest and mishandling of public money. “I think the real issue here is not this relationship. I think it’s more about the impropriety of having him on the team and having him present this to the grand jury and the conflict of interest in the...

Nancy Pelosi has called for and FBI investigation into pro-Palestine protestors and has claimed that they are financially backed by Russia. The former House Speaker joined Dana Bush on Sunday during Sunday's State of the Union on CNN, as Bush asked Pelosi what she thought about the countless protests that have taken place with the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas. 'Some are connected to Russia, and I say that having looked at this for a long time,' she said. Pelosi said she has encountered protestors herself and that 'we have to think about what we're doing.' 'And what we...

A shocking new poll has revealed that nearly a fifth of voters are “likely” to support a candidate endorsed by pop star Taylor Swift. The poll conducted by Redfield & Wilton Strategies for Newsweek found that 18 percent of voters are “more likely” or “significantly more likely” to vote for a candidate with Swift’s approval. Her influence was even more prominent with respondents under the age of 35. Newsweek reports the “poll found that an endorsement from Swift would have the greatest impact on younger voters. Roughly 3 in 10 Americans under 35 said they’d be more likely to vote...

The US Navy is lowering requirements to ridiculous levels, now accepting literal retards who flunked out of high school. The rush to get white males (as well as anyone else they can find) into the military as quickly as possible has led many to suggest we are headed for some kind of major and serious war. However, if they want to fight a serious war with China and/or Russia, they would need a draft. And it would be a much more serious draft than Vietnam. It would be a World War II style draft.

Bumbling Joe Biden said Donald Trump is the 'sitting President' as the confused 81-year-old stumbled through an economic speech in South Carolina over the weekend. The President tried to shore up support for another term as he tore into the former president during a dinner on Saturday that celebrated the state and its large base of black voters. Along with bashing Trump about his view on the US economy, Biden also said his Republican rival failed to support the rights of black citizens was a threat to democracy. 'The American consumers are facing real confidence in the economy we're building....

One of President Biden’s New York delegates has been convicted of scamming the Syracuse school district and currently owes the state $101,000 in back income taxes and penalties, The Post has learned. James “Jimmy” Monto III — who pleaded guilty to falsifying business records while he was an employee with the Syracuse City School District — is on Biden’s list of pledged delegates in the 22nd Congressional District for his re-election campaign.

Former President Donald Trump, speaking in a Commit to Caucus rally in Las Vegas on Saturday, promised that he will support Texas in its battle to secure the border, not push back against the state like the Biden administration is doing. "When I'm president, instead of trying to send Texas a restraining order, I will send them reinforcements," Trump told the large crowd gathered at Big League Dreams sports park in Las Vegas. "Instead of fighting border states, I will use every resource tool and authority of the U.S. president to defend the United States of America from this horrible...

A suspected robber is dead after police said he was shot and killed by a bystander who caught him in the act. The suspected robber reportedly pistol-whipped a man who was pumping gas at a gas station on Ella Boulevard at Greens Parkway before demanding his wallet. That's when the bystander stepped in. "Is in another car parked in front of the store. He sees the robbery. He gets out of his car with a pistol. He shoots once maybe twice at the suspect that’s running away, and the suspect goes down," said Houston Police Department Lt. R. Willkens. Surveillance...

Hitler to Hamas, Eugenics to EquitismOn this, the 79th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, the Holocaust Remembrance industry stands as a colossal failure. Holocaust Remembrance Day, it turns out, successfully transfixed eyes on the rear-view mirror and diverted attention from the dangers 10 feet in front of us. And, truth be told, the rear-view mirror is growing a bit foggy, as well. Less than a century ago, the leading intellectuals of Germany—the most highly educated nation on earth—initiated, participated in, or acquiesced to mass murder on a previously unimaginable scale. And only weeks ago, intellectuals in America, Europe, and...
