A rough week for the enemies of the West: Iran, Harris, LAT, and WaPo all feel the lash. Friday and Saturday, the Israeli air force gelded Iran, diminishing the Mullahcracy’s sway and putting paid to the Russian-supplied defense systems. At the same time, the refusal of the owners of the Los Angeles Times and Washington Post to do the expected and endorse Kamala Harris for President has roiled their partisan activist staffs. Harris angered her rally crowd by promising a Beyoncé concert and delivering just a Beyoncé abortion speech at the same time Trump had an engaging three-hour conversation with...

There exists in America an enemy regime that wants to destroy us.. ice presidential candidate Tim Walz “says” he wants to destroy America — not expressly; nonetheless with perfect clarity. Walz’s mouthpiece and education guru, Brian Lozenski, actually did say it expressly. In the embedded video, Lozenski, whom Walz appointed to craft an “ethnic studies” curriculum for Minnesota children, calls for the overthrow of the United States. (Ethnic studies, despite its harmless-sounding name, is founded on critical race theory and, like CRT, is aimed at overthrowing America.) ... there exists in America an enemy regime that wants to destroy us....

Transcript Summary (provided by ChatGPT) The speaker discusses the unique human ability to share and build on abstract ideas, which has transformed human evolution by allowing us to solve complex problems collectively. This capacity, termed the “campfire” model, illustrates how humans gather to pool different perspectives and strengths, solving problems beyond individual abilities. Unlike other social animals, this exchange of ideas grants humans an emergent, collective intelligence that vastly exceeds individual capabilities. This collective problem-solving ability led to the evolution of consciousness, argued as initially collective, allowing humans to work together on complex tasks. Individual consciousness later became prominent, but...

As the temperature dropped into the 50s in central Pennsylvania Saturday, things were heating up in the final push to the November 5 election. Thus was the case in State College as former President Donald Trump made the first of two possible stops at Penn State. His presence invited challenge from two grassroots organizations and a smattering of others on campus. Around 50 protesters with signs featuring progressive rhetoric marched up University Drive and wrapped around the Bryce Jordan Center onto Curtin Road, loudly decrying racism, fascism and the excesses of capitalism. “Dare to struggle, dare to win… Make racists...

On Friday, Donald Trump blasted Joe Biden for his “horribly” managed 2021 withdrawal from Afghanistan that got 13 American service members killed. The moment came during a three-hour conversation between the former president and comedian Joe Rogan on the latter’s “Joe Rogan Experience” podcast. The men were discussing the implications of U.S. foreign policy under Biden and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Trump said he believed Russian President Vladimir Putin “would have never” invaded Ukraine if he was still president, and contended the “number one” reason Putin launched his offensive is because “he doesn’t respect Biden at all.” “Not even a...

In a remarkable fusion of ancient tradition and modern craftsmanship, a meticulously constructed replica of the biblical Ark of the Covenant was showcased in Jerusalem during the Sukkot holiday. The display, which took place at the prestigious King David Hotel, featured the golden vessel housing a Holocaust-surviving Torah scroll from Thessaloniki, Greece. The ambitious project, spanning three and a half years, involved 17 volunteers across multiple countries who adhered strictly to Torah specifications. The replica’s construction required approximately three tons of Egyptian Acacia wood and was adorned with high-purity gold measuring 23.75 carats – the same grade used in ancient...

The Washington Post has announced it will not endorse a presidential candidate, sparking fury among its liberal readers who are pledging to cancel their subscriptions to the paper. The announcement marks the first time in 36 years that the left-leaning paper has decided to not make a presidential endorsement. The paper's page editor David Shipley had already approved an endorsement of Harris and had reportedly told colleagues that it was being reviewed by the paper's owner Jeff Bezos, according to NPR. But on Friday CEO Will Lewis published an op-ed that the paper is returning to its 'roots of not...

Of late, many people — especially politicians, pundits and celebrities on the left — have been engaged in agonizing introspection, trying to ascertain why the election has seemed to tip towards former President Donald Trump. In my estimation, much of the reasoning comes down to an example of “life imitating art.” In this case, such “art” being the 1986 movie “Back to School,” starring Rodney Dangerfield. Now, while some of the entitled, entrenched elites on the left might ignorantly and snobbishly scoff at such a theory — part of the reason they may soon be on the outside looking in...

Podcaster and journalist Megyn Kelly stunned the audience during her appearance on Bill Maher's Real Time show on Friday night as she laid out the facts about children changing their sex. Audible gasps could be heard coming from the usually liberal audience members, with many seemingly recoiling in disgust. 'What we're doing to our children with this trans insanity. We are chopping off the healthy body parts of young children,' Kelly began, while the audience took in its collective breath.

Democrats are spending another week wondering if Kamala Harris has let her momentum in the 2024 race completely slip away. A murderer's row of bad PR for the Harris campaign this week featured continued tanking in the polls, a widely panned CNN town hall, Donald Trump beating her to the Joe Rogan bump and even fellow Democrats slamming her rhetoric. Harris now trails Trump in the polling average in the crucial swing states of Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, according to Real Clear Politics. Fear is now gripping Harris' campaign and the 'vibes' are draining away as prominent Democratic lawmakers, as...

Reuters reports that a small house lacking an atrium but decorated with well-preserved frescoes has been discovered in the Roman city of Pompeii, which was destroyed by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in A.D. 79. The site has been named the House of Phaedra after the mythological queen of Athens, who is depicted in one of the paintings with her stepson Hippolytus, who refuses her advances. Other wall paintings depict patterns, scenes from nature, an encounter between a satyr and a nymph, and gods who may represent Venus and Adonis.

Former President Donald Trump on Saturday invited several Muslim leaders onstage with him at a campaign rally in Michigan as he courts Arab American and Muslim voters disillusioned or angry over US policy on Israel and Gaza in the critical battleground state. “They could turn the election one way or the other,” Trump said in the Detroit suburb of Novi, located about a half hour from Dearborn, which last year became the first Arab-majority city in the US. Trump said in his speech that he had held a meeting earlier in the day with Muslim leaders. He was joined onstage...

Prostate cancer is a quiet killer. In most men, it's treatable. However, in some cases, it resists all known therapies and turns extremely deadly. A new discovery at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) points to a potentially groundbreaking solution. CSHL Professor Lloyd Trotman's lab has found that the pro-oxidant supplement menadione slows prostate cancer progression in mice. The supplement is a precursor to vitamin K, commonly found in leafy greens. In 2001, the National Cancer Institute's SELECT trial sought to determine if an antioxidant vitamin E supplement could successfully treat or prevent prostate cancer. However, after just three years, participants...
