  • Islamists and leftists celebrate Independence Day in NYC by burning the American flag

    However, there is one flag in America that is sacred, and destroying it is a blasphemous act that will result in harsh penalties. Even as young people across America are being prosecuted for daring to desecrate the “Pride” crosswalks proliferating in leftist cities, the Hamas/leftist crowd continues to revel in its constitutional right to free speech, which includes burning the American flag on Independence Day. During a New York protest, there were plenty of “Palestinian” flags, which stand for genocide and subjugation, but the only American flags were used as fire starters. The protest in New York’s Washington Square Park...

    DEI is dying because conservative activists and public interest groups are campaigning hard against it. One deadly myth harmful to the conservative cause is that once the full weight of the establishment pushes a liberal initiative forward, it is futile to resist it. Such fatalism is false. Plenty of well-advanced leftist initiatives have suffered crushing defeats. It is enough to recall the doomed Equal Rights Amendment, Roe v. Wade, or Common Core. All found their way to the liberal graveyard of lost causes awaiting reincarnation under other acronyms. The Fate of DEI The latest program to suffer the indignity of...

    The most important aspect, if a confrontation occurs, is to have a firearm available, easily and quickly accessible. The specific caliber is less important. These updates include all the incidents we have been able to document to the date of the update after several years of intense searches. We have always sought examples of failures. We appreciate readers who help us document more cases. Here are all the cases that have been documented where .357 Magnum caliber revolvers were fired in defense against bears. These cases do not include incidents where handguns were used with other lethal means or a...

    President Joe Biden’s family is attempting to become more involved over his campaign and White House affairs as their anger with his staff spills into public view. “The debate fiasco has opened up a lane for the family to surpass staff and start helping out their father and brother who they love dearly,” one of the people with knowledge of family dynamics said. The split between the president’s family and some of his closest aides has long been simmering, and his debate performance has exacerbated the dynamic, 13 sources familiar with the dynamics told NBC News. From the view of...
  • FLASHBACK: Transcript of Biden's interview with special counsel Robert Hur shows memory lapses — but also detailed exchanges

    WASHINGTON — Special counsel Robert Hur’s bombshell report on President Joe Biden’s handling of classified documents concluded that he presented himself as an “elderly man with a poor memory” who was unable to remember key dates, including when he served as vice president or the year his son died. Biden spoke with Hur for 3½ hours Oct. 8, and for 90 minutes the next day. The timing was fraught, with a major international crisis having broken out Oct. 7 when Hamas attacked Israel. Biden allies believe a full reading of the transcript will only bolster their contention that Hur’s characterization...
  • Furious Jill Biden is 'lashing out' at Democrats who want to boot Biden, 81, from 2024 nomination after debate fiasco

    First lady Jill Biden is said to be 'lashing out' at Democrats who want to remove President Joe Biden from the 2024 Democratic nomination following last week's debate. While the president has said he has no plans to step aside, he is known be talking to vast numbers of people, but only listening to views of a very tight circle, including those of his wife. And Jill is said to have taken a dim view of those wishing to kick her husband off the ticket, as it's claimed she's the driving force between his insistence on staying in the race....
  • Deluded Biden just gave the middle finger to America! And, as our ego-deranged president refuses to quit, MAUREEN CALLAHAN warns: this is proof of a terrifying White House secret

    Joe Biden just stuck up his middle finger and told Americans everywhere: Screw you. In a taped interview that lasted only 22 minutes, the President insisted his dire poll numbers weren't real — 'fake news', if you will — that the Democratic party has no concerns about his fitness to lead, and that the only way he would exit the race is 'if the Lord Almighty comes down and tells me'. What — Barack Obama isn't close enough? If Americans had a shred of sympathy for Biden after last week's CNN debate — if they felt that perhaps he didn't...

    A group of top business leaders sent a letter to President Biden Friday urging him to end his reelection campaign in the wake of his poor debate performance last week. As of Friday morning, the letter was signed by 186 people who said they were fearful about the future of the country. **SNIP** In the letter, the group said it admires the president’s decades of service and noted his legacy will be known as one that rescued democracy from a large threat. “To ensure that legacy is cemented, we ask that you pass the torch of leadership to the next...

    Outmigration to other states cost California $24 billion in outgoing personal incomes across 2021 and 2022, according to new IRS data. Departing Californians were significantly wealthier and more likely to have children or spouses than incoming Americans, suggesting wealthy families are leaving the state as poorer individuals come to seek their California dream.

    Peel Regional Police have quietly conceded that millions in gold stolen from Toronto Pearson Airport in April 2023 was likely quickly smuggled out of Canada to the Middle East or South Asia. "We believe a large portion has gone overseas to markets that are flush with gold," lead investigator Det. Sgt. Mike Mavity told members of the Peel Police Service Board during a June 21 meeting. "That would be Dubai, or India, where you can take gold with serial numbers on it and they will still honour it and melt it down…. And we believe that happened very shortly after...

    Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs has been publicly supportive of President Biden in the past, but she’s choosing to keep silent after taking part in his Wednesday night meeting with Democratic governors — as a source tells The Post that party officials are being asked to keep a united front. “Everyone’s in lockstep until they’re told not to be,” the source said, adding that “there’s a lot of conversations happening” concerning the future of the 81-year-old president’s re-election campaign. Unlike some of her fellow governors, Hobbs has not made any kind of public statement backing Biden since the meeting, when the...

    Viktor Orbán, Europe’s most pro-Russian leader, met Vladimir Putin at the Kremlin on Friday on a rare trip to Russia that drew strong condemnation from other European leaders. Orbán’s visit to Moscow came days after he made a similar unannounced trip to Kyiv, as the Hungarian prime minister attempts to position himself as a peace broker between Russia and Ukraine. Shortly after landing in Russia for his first trip to the country since Putin launched the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Orbán published a photo with the caption: “The peace mission continues. Second stop: Moscow.” At the Kremlin, the two leaders...

Here’s a suggestion for implementing his new powers,” Midler wrote in a Friday X post, sharing a screenshot from an opinion piece published by The New Republic.

    A jaw-dropping video shows the moment nearly 100 robbers ransacked a California gas station in the middle of the night. Surveillance footage displays dozens of masked and hoodie-wearing thieves taking their sweet time to grab as much as they can carry just after 4:30am on Friday at the station in crime-ridden Oakland. The raid came just days after Oakland's progressive mayor bragged about a drop in crime in the hellhole city.
