Swiss police have opened an investigation into a ski hire shop's announcement it would no longer rent skis and sledges to Jewish customers. The shop, in the famous resort of Davos, has now reversed its decision. It has taken down the signs, translated into Hebrew, which informed customers of the ban. But many have argued the case is a clear violation of Switzerland's laws against discrimination and incitement to racial or religious hatred. The Swiss Federation of Jewish Communities has launched its own legal action, condemning the signs as clearly discriminatory. Posters in the sports shop window informed customers that,...

Tucker Carlson’s fulsome praise of Russia’s capital city is so far off the mark, it’s embarrassing. Moscow,” Tucker Carlson announced this week, from his populist redoubt at the World Government Summit in Dubai, “is so much nicer than any city in my country. I had no idea. It is so much cleaner, and safer and prettier, aesthetically. Its architecture, food, and services than in any city in the United States. And this is not ideological. How did that happen?” The simplest answer to this inquiry is that it didn’t. I daresay that Carlson did, indeed, have a nice time when...

The UFO mania just won’t go away, with more and more reports surfacing ever day dealing with evidence – true or imagined – of these unidentified craft roaming the skies in speed and maneuvers that are not possible with our present ‘known’ technology. Now we learn of multiple allegations that that ‘the US military is in possession of a video of a UFO apparently disabling a nuclear warhead during a routine test, according to multiple former officials’.

“I’m a smoker and gun owner in DC, I can’t even get a date.” Damn if that ain’t the truth!

Senior Democrats are suggesting that a discharge petition could be introduced to bring a $95-billion overseas aid bill to a vote in the House of Representatives if Speaker Mike Johnson refuses to introduce it. On Tuesday the bill passed the Senate in a 70-29 vote, but it must also be approved by the House before President Joe Biden can sign it into law. Johnson has refused to say he would bring the bill to the floor of the House, potentially halting its passage. On Monday he criticized the legislation, which would provide an additional $60 billion of military aid for...

In recent years, a movement among sections of Chinese nationalists has emerged, asking that Russia return Vladivostok to China. These claims have been intensified by Putin's interview, in which he contrasted the alleged historical foundation of the Russian state, which he said dated back to the 9th century, with the "invention" of Ukraine in the 20th century. "According to history, Russia should return us Vladivostok and vast territory stolen 100-something years ago," Robert Wu, a social media user from China, said on X, formerly Twitter... Another Chinese nationalist on Weibo pointed out that Russia has territories that imperial Chinese dynasties...

“I have no other way out,” said Inês, a mother of four in the Mutauanha Piloto neighborhood of Nampula, Mozambique, who was interviewed by a member of my team. “I have children to support, I have to take risks.” Every year, Inês cultivates a small crop of tomatoes and onions to sell, and every year, it gets harder to produce enough. So she turned to sex work in exchange for food. In 2007, she learned she was HIV-positive. I have been working in the field of HIV care and research for over 20 years as an infectious disease physician and...

A former Biden family business partner scorched President Biden in an explosive opening statement at a House impeachment inquiry deposition Tuesday, saying the commander-in-chief is corrupt — and that his testimony will help prove it. “The Biden family business was Joe Biden, period,” said Tony Bobulinski, a former Navy officer who worked alongside first son Hunter Biden and first brother James Biden on a venture with CEFC China Energy.

Last week, The Gateway Pundit reported on Craig Callaway’s recent indictment in Atlantic City, NJ for “procuring, casting, and tabulating fraudulent ballots.” The former Atlantic City council president was caught allegedly paying New Jersey residents $30 to $50 to “act as authorized messengers and request mail-in ballots for voters whom they’d never met.” The alleged crime took place during the 2022 mid-term election when Callaway was paid $65,500 by Rep. Jeff Van Drew’s (R-02) campaign for “strategic consulting”. Rep. Van Drew had paid Callaway’s firm $110,000 for services in the 2020 campaign as well. Callaway faces up to five years...

Please call him and urge him to vote yes on impeaching Mayorkas. Tom, who normally votes very conservative, voted against impeachment last week because he did not feel there was sufficient evidence to warrant impeachment. "Secretary Mayorkas is guilty of maladministration of our immigration laws on a cosmic scale. But we KNOW that’s not grounds for impeachment, because the American Founders specifically rejected it. They didn’t want political disputes to become impeachments, because that would shatter the separation of powers that vests the enforcement of the laws with the President – no matter how bad a job he does. Cabinet...

The White House says President Biden will not take a cognitive test — even after a damning report from his own Department of Justice highlighting his “poor memory” and voters expressing major concerns about his mental acuity. “The president proves every day [in] how he operates and how he thinks — by dealing with world leaders, by making difficult decisions on behalf of the American people — whether it’s domestic or national security,” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters Monday, quoting from Biden’s physician, Dr. Kevin O’Connor. “That is how Dr. O’Connor sees it, and that is how...

Jesse Jackson and students protest Western Culture program on Palm Drive, photograph, 1987 By the mid-1980s, increasing dissatisfaction with the introductory humanities program known as “Western Culture” that had begun in 1980 came to the fore.

The curriculum debate drew national attention, and in...
