British Prime Minister Kier Starmer's resort to harsh measures to suppress public unrest over the murders of young girls at a Taylor Swift dance party spurred accusations that laws are not being enforced equally. Starmer called these charges "baseless. We are long past the delusion that justice can be attained by treating everyone the same. Different situations need to be treated differently." "Saddened as we are by the murders of those young girls we must understand the context in which they occurred," the Prime Minister insisted. "The 17-year-old assailant comes from a culture where female promiscuity is rigorously condemned and...

It’s long been a known fact that the United Kingdom’s dysfunctional legal system likes to punish thought criminals. That’s already problematic for those who value individual freedoms, but why stop at those who speak inside the borders of the U.K.? In what might be the most deluded and grandiose threat yet made by a sitting British state official since riots have consumed the country over the past few weeks — which really is saying something, if you’ve been following — the chief of London’s Metropolitan Police warned those who Have Opinions™ on what’s happening in the U.K. and post them...

The polls are nothing more than a tool for making public opinion. The polls are not taken to reflect public opinion at all. The primary purpose of polls is to depress and dispirit Republican voters by making them feel constantly like they’re in the minority.

This quote is taken from an exhortation by the Roman general Belisarius in AD 533 to his troops as they set out on the great campaign to wrest north Africa from the Vandals. The setting is the beach at Abydos, a city set on a promontory projecting into the Hellespont between the Aegean Sea and the Sea of Marmara. Having left Constantinople by ship shortly before, Belisarius and his army had landed at Abydos to collect an additional load of cavalry mounts. Before they could set sail again, however, the wind died and left the fleet becalmed. Several days of...

Vice President Kamala Harris is vowing to sign legislation as president that would have millions of illegal aliens eventually securing naturalized American citizenship and imposing nationwide no-excuse mail-in voting. During a rally in Glendale, Arizona, Harris said she would back amnesty for the nation’s 11 to 22 million illegal aliens through so-called “comprehensive reform.” “We know our immigration system is broken and we know what it takes to fix it: comprehensive reform. That includes strong border security and an earned pathway to citizenship,” Harris said.

UKRAINE has dealt Vladimir Putin another huge blow after blasting a Russian gas rig in the Black Sea, killing 40 soldiers.

Elite billionaire organizations and foundations, government agencies, and activist pressure groups are funding and coordinating a global war on modern agriculture, nutrition, and Earth’s poorest, hungriest people. Instead of helping more families get nutritious food, better healthcare, and higher living standards, they’re doing the opposite and harming biodiversity in the process. The World Economic Forum wants to reimagine, reinvent and transform the global food system, to eliminate greenhouse gases from food production. Central to its plan is alternatives to animal protein: meal worm potato chips, bug burgers instead of beef patties, and meat loaves and sausages made from lake flies,...

Laura Loomer joined War Room to encourage Republicans in Ilhan Omar's district to cross over and vote for her opponent in the upcoming Minnesota primary. Minnesota is one of a handful of states that have open primaries. Omar won her last primary by a mere 2,000 votes so there is a real chance she can be defeated this time.

A Minnesota retirement system for public school teachers under Gov. Tim Walz is “cooking the books” by vastly underreporting annual fees paid to Wall Street investment managers — and posting near-impossible gains tantamount to a “Madoff miracle,” a top pension investigator said. The state-run Teachers Retirement Association, or TRA, has publicly disclosed less than 10% of an estimated $2.9 billion spent on fees in the past 10 years, said Edward Siedle, a former Security and Exchange Commission lawyer and independent pension investigator. The TRA also posted gains claiming it beat its own custom benchmark over periods of one, five, 10,...

While appearing on CNN’s The Source with Kaitlin Collins, Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg criticized former President Donald Trump’s recent public appearances, saying he’s “lost a step.”“Sometimes you get the feeling that Trump’s heart isn’t in this anymore, the laziness of his attacks, not to mention the, again, lack of any coherent account of what he’s actually going to do to make Americans lives better,” Buttigieg said. “You can just tell that he’s lost a step. You know, he’s getting mushy or fuzzy or more confused.” Discussing a Thursday press conference Trump held, after which he was accused of rambling...

It is often forgotten, but Hoover was a political philosopher. He first outlined his political philosophy in 1922 in "American Individualism." In 1934, in response to President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal, Hoover wrote "The Challenge to Liberty."Both "American Individualism" and "The Challenge to Liberty" were a defense of what Hoover called the “American System,” or constitutionalism. In "American Individualism," Hoover hailed the principle of equality of opportunity or the “fair chance of Abraham Lincoln,” which reflected his own life story. Hoover argued that it was the American system of liberty that allowed an individual to advance. Orphaned at an...

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Paying a visit to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, a puzzled Governor Tim Walz asked the guard why he bothered staying with his fallen comrade instead of just deserting him. "Who cares about some no-name soldier?" asked Walz, laughing jovially. "Isn't there something else you'd rather be doing?" Onlookers reported that Walz followed the guard at the Tomb back and forth for about half an hour, dumbstruck at why he wouldn't quit and go home. "Come on, what do we owe this dead guy? It's hot outside in this suit," said Walz as the guard remained...

On Friday’s broadcast of NewsNation’s “The Hill,” Rep. John Garamendi (D-CA) stated that 2024 Democratic presidential candidate Vice President Kamala Harris “did what she was supposed to do” with her assignment on the border. Garamendi said, “I think she has a very, very good argument to make on the border. This border czar issue is just incorrect. She was given a very specific task of dealing with the Central American countries. She got about $5 billion into those countries and a very, very significant reduction in the number of asylum seekers leaving those countries. So, in that sense, she did...

Members of the media were caught off guard today and expressed confusion after seeing a presidential candidate standing in front of cameras and answering questions. The incident occurred today at the Mar-a-Lago resort estate of former President Donald Trump, where the media gathered in dumbfounded silence and stared in bewilderment at an actual presidential candidate standing right in front of them and answering their questions. "What… what strange practice is this?" one journalist was heard asking as he observed the surreal event of Trump answering a reporter's question. "Let me get this straight… this guy is running for president, and...

The campaign for the presidency overflowed for months with dark ruminations about the furies to be unleashed should the other side win: World War III, another Great Depression and even the possible ascent of a dictator. Into this season of gloom, enters a onetime high school teacher, football coach and corn dog lover, who has introduced a revolutionary alternative — joy. “Thank you for bringing back the joy,” Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz said to Vice President Kamala Harris, as the two made their first appearance this week as the new Democratic ticket for the White House. If he won his...

Over 76,000 people have been evacuated from Russia's Kursk region, the local emergency ministry said. Russia evacuates 76,000 people from its border region of Kursk as Ukrainian troops advance into its territory in the largest incursion on Russian soil since the full-scale invasion in February 2022. Russia's Ministry of Defence released footage on Saturday showing what it claims to be tanks, troops and artillery systems deployed to the country's western region of Kursk in a bid to fight off Ukrainian armed forces that stormed the area early this week. The Kremlin released other footage claimed to show helicopters, fighter jets...

Recently, Kamala Harris is holding her own in Presidential polls. If those polls are true (more on that in a minute), it’s not because of who she is or what she’s done. It’s because the media—her PR team—is flooding the airwaves in her favor and against Trump. However, there’s another zone that Republicans can flood. Regarding the polls, you must take presidential polls not with a grain of salt but with many a grain, even the polls that show Trump ahead. Most of these polls are not valid for a variety of reasons. The key reason is that it is...

“Tim Walz is the man who’s very freakish, he’s very freakish,” Trump said during the event in Bozeman, Mont., just hours after his plane was diverted due to a mechanical issue. “If Comrade Walz and Comrade [Vice President] Harris win this November, the people cheering will be the pink-haired Marxists, the looters, the perverts, the flag-burners, Hamas supporters, drug dealers, gun grabbers and human traffickers,”

Tucker Carlson has been talking for a while now, about the parallels/similarities of how the CIA and Intelligence Community targeted Richard Nixon and how the same group targets Donald Trump almost 50 years later. In this interview with Geoff Shepard, Tucker Carlson discusses, “newly unearthed documents showing Watergate was a scam from start to finish.” Geoff Shepard saw it happen walks through the story with Carlson. Geoff Shepard’s documentary, “Watergate Secrets and Betrayals,” is available at the link here: https://watergatesecret.com WATCH:

Kamala Harris and Tim Walz rallied a packed arena outside Phoenix, Arizona, on Friday – drawing perhaps the largest Democratic crowd of the election cycle this year. The presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, her running mate and the local leaders who joined them on stage whipped up the crowd, discussing immigration, abortion rights and Indigenous sovereignty. Noting the Indigenous leaders in the room, Harris also said: “I will always honor tribal sovereignty and respect tribal self-determination.” Indigenous voters are credited with helping deliver Arizona to Joe Biden in 2020; the state is home to 22 federally recognized tribes. At one point...
