The four witnesses at the congressional UAP hearing provided written testimonies. Here are some of the highlights. Tim Gallaudet [Rear Admiral (retired)] Gallaudet called out UAPs as a safety risk for Navy pilots. He was acting as the chief meteorologist for the Navy at the time of the 2015 “Go Fast” encounter between a Navy pilot and UAP. That footage was one of the videos officially released by the Navy in 2020. Gallaudet accused “elements of the government” of engaging in a disinformation campaign designed to discredit UAP whistleblowers. His testimony didn’t use the words “alien” or “extraterrestrial,” but he...

Peace and stability in Western societies are under increasing pressure from immigrants whose ethnic prejudices, brutality, and contempt for democratic values generate conflict. The Thirty Years’ War was hard on Europe. So profound were the ramifications of the Christian schism that doubts arose as to whether the wounds could ever be healed. Leaving trails of mutilation and destruction behind them, armies of unscrupulous mercenaries terrorized civilians in both the countryside and the cities, testing their faith to the limit. It felt as if God had abandoned his children forever. Landscapes marred by burnt crops, pillaged homes, and piles of human...

Republicans ended up flipping, maintaining control of, or expanding their majority in nearly all of the state legislative chambers across the country where partisan control was up for grabs on Election Day. With the final votes largely tallied in key state House and Senate races across the country, the results provide the GOP with yet another slate of success — on top of the party winning full control of Washington — that will likely help to determine the future of several hot-button policy issues According to projections from The Associated Press, Republicans flipped control of the Michigan state House, padded...

WEST VIRGINIA — Former West Virginia Delegate Derrick Evans has formally announced his intention to run for West Virginia Senator Shelley Moore Capito’s seat in the U.S. Senate in the 2026 election. In his candidacy announcement, he called Capito a RINO (Republican In Name Only), stating that she stayed silent during a “secret vote” for Senate Majority Leader John Thune. Evans said that Thune is a career politician and that he is poised to delay or obstruct President Trump’s future cabinet appointments.

From the Kingdom of Nye, as Art Bell would say, and following up on my yesterday's UFO report... Ex-officials allege US reverse-engineered alien tech for ‘secretive arms race’ Further expanding upon our coverage of the November 13 House subcommittee hearing, witnesses, including former Pentagon officials, claimed that the U.S. government had withheld extensive information on unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAPs)—more commonly known as unidentified flying objects (UFOs)—for decades.

Trump will move fast, change directions, and keep his opponents off guard. If you’ve ever played speed chess, then you can appreciate what President Trump is about to do to “official” Washington. This won’t be like 2017, when the president did everything he could to work amicably with House and Senate Republicans. This time, you either get on the “Trump Train” or kindly throw yourself from the back car. There’s no time to waste, and the president won’t be slowing down for stragglers. After his first election, President Trump arrived in D.C. with Republican majorities in Congress, too. He expected...

Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine., a moderate, is planning to run for a sixth term in the 2026 midterm election. Collins, a moderate lawmaker, last won re-election in 2020 despite President Biden, a Democrat, winning Maine. “I’m focused on the appropriations process, not elections right now, but my intention is to run,” Collins said, according to the Washington Examiner.

And whoever it is that Trump finally puts in charge of the Department of Justice as Attorney General is likely to have the same agenda as Gaetz in purging liberal hardliners from its staff of lawyers who have not only taken part in the lawfare against Trump but also enabled the woke virus to spread throughout the government. That's a battle that Americans who understand the grave damage that Leftist ideology is doing to the country know must be fought. And while some on the left are mocking Trump's idea of Department of Government Efficiency led by billionaire Elon Musk...

Congress met Wednesday to discuss "Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena" in order to "further pull back the curtain on secret UAP research programs conducted by the US government, and undisclosed findings they have yielded."

A federal appeals court has upheld an Indiana law banning the use of puberty blockers and hormones for transgender children under the age of 18, one of numerous such laws passed by Republican-controlled states. The 2-1 decision from the seventh US circuit court of appeals on Wednesday comes as the US supreme court prepares to hear a challenge to a similar law in Tennessee, which may ultimately determine whether all such state laws around the country can be enforced. The seventh circuit had already allowed the law to take effect in February while it considered the challenge by families of...

Capitol Hill Democrats are pressing the White House to pull out all the stops to gird the executive branch against President-elect’s Trump’s promised efforts to tear down federal agencies and restructure them to his liking. The lawmakers want President Biden to get aggressive — and creative — with unilateral actions in the final weeks of his administration. The idea is both to protect the Democrats’ policy victories and to fortify the Justice Department, the intelligence agencies and other offices in Trump’s crosshairs. “There’s a lot that the Biden administration can do, and I know that they’ve done some scenario planning,”...

Before the Nov. 5 election, Pennsylvania’s Supreme Court ruled that provisional ballots must be signed in two required places and that mail-in votes must be dated. Yet elected Democratic officials in Philadelphia and three other counties — Bucks, Centre and Montgomery — voted this week to defy these and other court decisions at the request of lawyers for Democratic Sen. Bob Casey, who trails GOP challenger Dave McCormick by about 24,000 votes, with almost all of the roughly 7 million ballots cast having been counted. These Democrats’ decisions will almost certainly be overturned on appeal, but the mere attempt to...

Wasserman Schultz, a Florida Democratic Congresswoman, appeared on MSNBC to condemn Trump's pick as a danger to national security.
