[OFFICIAL.] SECRETARY STANTON TO GEN. DIX. WAR DEPARTMENT, WASHINGTON, Aug. 29, 1864. Major-Gen. Dix: The capture of Fort Morgan is fully confirmed by dispatches from Gens. GRANT and SHERMAN, who derive their information from Richmond and Mobile papers. It appears from Gen. GRANT's dispatch to the President, just received, that Fort Morgan was surrendered: CITY POINT, Aug. 29. A. Lincoln, President: Since my dispatch of this morning I have received the Richmond Sentinel of the 27th. It contain the following dispatch: FROM MOBILE. "The report of the surrender of Fort Morgan was most unexpected, and we await an explanation of...

Having been told that MAGA people were hate-filled, brainwashed, stupid cultists, Nicole Shanahan was shocked to meet friendly, interesting, and well-informed people. Nicole Shanahan is an interesting woman (more on that in a minute). She also was, up until this year, a stalwart Democrat. However, the Democrat party’s decidedly anti-Democrat behavior, both in blocking RFK Jr’s campaign and in placing Kamala at the head of the ticket without her having one a single primary ever, soured her on her one-time party. Now that she’s had a taste of MAGA, she’s also realized that the media and the Democrat establishment have...

Vice President Kamala Harris showed her true colors Thursday in her first TV interview since becoming the Democratic nominee – admitting her lefty “values have not changed” even though her positions on major policies have. In a sit-down with CNN, Harris, 59, defended various backtracks when asked if voters can know what they’re getting — as Republicans question the sincerity of her pivots to the political center on immigration, healthcare and energy policy ahead of the Nov. 5 election. “I think the most important and most significant aspect of my policy perspective and decisions is my values have not changed,”...

IF YOU were a malign power wishing to destroy a country, but you didn’t want to go to the expense in lives and money of a military invasion, how would you go about it? Certain steps can be taken to undermine and ultimately to destroy the culture and the cohesive identity of a people. The United Kingdom today functions as a laboratory where we can witness them being played out in real time. Here are some of them. First, recognise that Britain is a Christian nation, and proceed to undermine that concept. Britain is Christian not in the sense that...

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson sits down with British journalist and activist Tommy Robinson. They discuss how peaceful demonstrations have been relentlessly tarred as extremist events, how the captured media and U.K. government have colluded to oppress and silence the majority population, how multiculturalism has not failed but activist communities have, the slew of controversies levied against Tommy — and why he keeps fighting for the truth. Tommy Robinson is a British journalist and activist who first became an establishment target after reporting on the grooming gangs in London. From then on, he and his family have been smeared and punished...

~Tradition holds that most Americans don't start paying attention to the presidential election until after Labor Day. So on Tuesday morning millions of people are going to be discovering that the one candidate got shot in the head and the other was more effectively dispatched and whoever's actually running the United States no longer feels the need to pretend that the dead husk of a moth-eaten sock puppet is the chief executive of the global superpower. Meanwhile, the Ukrainians say Moscow is "threatening the world with nuclear catastrophe". Given that an American client state has spent the last month bombing...

First, the President of the United States left California on Sunday after a week of vacation time near Santa Barbara, and returned to… yes, his beach house in Delaware, where the NOTAMs suggest that he plans to spend nine days. His last trip to the beach house in Delaware? Two weeks ago. Taking bets on how many days Joe Biden sleeps in the White House between now and January 20. “The President of the United States.” Second, here’s a headline in a British newspaper that makes a disturbingly plausible argument: Read this well-written opinion piece, which carefully lays out the...

Australians will soon be able to verify their identity with a business or service by tapping their smart phone, with the rollout of new technology funded by the federal government. Labor says the system will be more secure and save time, but concerns remain about how much data the government could collect.

Former President Trump’s campaign is attacking Fox News after the network released polling this week showing him trailing Vice President Harris in several key battleground states ahead of November. “It’s that time of year again. Fox is releasing atrocious polling,” the campaign said in a statement Thursday. “President Trump continues to outperform polling from past cycles.” “President Trump is 10 points ahead of where he was in Arizona at this point in 2020, according to Fox. Likewise, he is running 8 points ahead of his 2020 polling in Nevada and 5 points ahead of his 2020 polling in North Carolina,”...

An expert has suggested the UK could see rioting in the streets if the pension age is raised to 71 as some think-tanks are suggest the move is necessary. Warnings that the retirement age for state pension eligibility must rise to 71 have sparked a furious response. Experts have told the Labour Government they must act now over the unaffordability of the UK's state pension payment commitments. And one has even suggested the UK could see rioting in the streets if the pension age is raised again.

A recent Gallup survey found that confidence in America’s colleges and universities has plummeted in the past decade, with only 36 percent of today’s adults expressing “a great deal” or “quite a lot” of confidence in our higher-education system—down from 57 percent in 2015. Respondents offered several reasons for their low opinions, including the cost of obtaining a degree, the difficulty in finding a high-paying job even with a degree, and the perception of college campuses as indoctrination centers. I’d like to focus, in this essay, on the first of those reasons. The others are important, too, and may well...

A government scheme to use vacant military land for new homes was quietly shelved two years ago without a single house being built. The plan was meant to deliver up to 10,000 new homes, but came to an end after the Ministry of Defence (MoD) withdrew most of the chosen sites from the programme. Earlier this year the MoD identified further surplus "brownfield" land that could be used for almost 35,000 new homes. But the BBC can reveal that none of that land has yet been released or sold by the government either.

Kamala Harris was last night ripped to shreds for her 'word salad' answers in a softball liberal media interview - her first since Joe Biden stepped down 40 days ago. The Democratic nominee appeared beside her running mate Tim Walz for an hourlong broadcast - which in reality amounted to less than half an hour of actual questioning by Dana Bash. Scott Jennings, an ex-Bush advisor, issued the ominous warning that Donald Trump will be 'salivating' ahead of the presidential debate on September 10 - their first ever face-to-face meeting. That sentiment was echoed by GOP polling guru Frank Luntz...
