Democrats are licking their wounds after Vice President Harris’s defeat to President-elect Trump, but already are looking toward who might lead their party in a 2028 presidential contest. It’s a fight that looks wide open. The certainty is that Trump himself will not be on the ballot, since the Constitution limits him to two terms. Vice President-elect JD Vance is the likely GOP front-runner as the party’s next presidential nominee.

ASTANA, November 28. /TASS/. The simultaneous use of several Oreshnik missiles is comparable in strength to a nuclear strike, but it does not contaminate the environment, Russian President Vladimir Putin said, answering journalists' questions. "If you use several such systems in one strike at once - two, three, or four systems - it will be comparable in strength to a nuclear strike. But it is not nuclear because it is a) highly accurate and b) it is not equipped with a nuclear explosive device. It does not contaminate the environment. But it will be comparable in strength," Putin said.

Donald Trump may have overwhelmingly won reelection, but according to Google’s content police, saying anything nice about him is “demonstrably false” and a threat to the “democratic process.” Do you think we’re exaggerating? We received notice the other day that our article “Unburdened By What Has Been, Trump Is Poised To Deliver Bigly” contained, according to Google, “unreliable and harmful claims.” What falls into this category? Content that: - makes claims that are demonstrably false and could significantly undermine participation or trust in an electoral or democratic process. - promotes harmful health claims, or relates to a current, major health...

Five years after a devastating fire threatened to destroy the ancient place of worship, it is set to reopen to the public next week.

Chicago Bears head coach Matt Eberflus appeared to blame quarterback Caleb Williams for how the dying moments of the team's loss to Detroit Lions unfolded, despite refusing to call a timeout that could have saved the game. The Bears had the ball in Lions territory late in the game with a chance to drive for a game-tying field goal or go-ahead touchdown, but they blew the opportunity before losing 23-20 - their sixth straight loss.

Formula 1 racing has become the latest major American company to buckle to pressure from far-left activists and accept new diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) standards. According to the Washington Free Beacon, the new rules will impact Formula 1, the FIA, and all ten F1 teams. F1’s DEI charter was co-written by the Royal Academy of Engineering, which first provided a report on recommended DEI standards for the Hamilton Commission in 2021. “As a sport that prides itself on its unrelenting high performance, Formula 1 recognizes the importance that diversity plays in introducing new perspectives and ideas, and in driving...

The first arctic outbreak of the season is allowing temperatures to plunge across the eastern half of the country, creating “dangerously cold” wind chills of 15-30 degrees below zero in the northern Plains and Upper Midwest. As the Thanksgiving Day winter storm exits the Northeast, it is pulling in arctic air from Canada and allowing the cold air to travel as far away as the Southeast. On Black Friday, well over 200 million Americans are expected to experience below-average temperatures. According to NOAA’s Weather Prediction Center, wind chills should fall well below zero across the northern Plains and Upper Midwest....

This sex-based divide may endure for upcoming elections, but the arithmetic for a feminist-brand party will not ensure victory regardless of the Democrat’s aggressive pro-women agenda. The term “permanent campaign” emerged in 1976 and has come to mean candidates beginning their next campaign immediately after election day. Think Gavin Newsom, who is already campaigning for the 2028 presidency. Trump’s 2024 victory, however, suggests a new political concept: never-ending public grief over having lost, a behavior akin to mass hysteria. Universities abound with traumatized Harris supporters seeking mental health counseling to overcome their misery. One “bereaved” student even desperately announced on...

“Making the most of your time, because the days are evil” (Ephesians 5:16). Time will tell whether you’re unselfish or selfish. In 1842 Robert Murray M’Cheyne, pastor of St. Peter’s Church in Dundee, Scotland, wrote a pastoral letter to an individual who was an unbeliever. The following is an excerpt from his letter: I was reading this morning (Luke ii. 29), what old Simeon said when he got the child Jesus into his arms: “Now lettest Thou Thy servant depart in peace, according to Thy word: for mine eyes have seen Thy salvation.” If you get a firm hold of...

Former Human Rights Watch director Kenneth Roth called the plight of the 101 hostages held in Gaza one of a number of "utter irrelevancies" following the International Criminal Court's decision to issue arrest warrants against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. "The Israeli government responded to the ICC war-crime charges with the usual diversionary excuses – the need to liberate the hostages, Hamas’s use of human shields, Israel’s democracy and self-defense, supposed ICC antisemitism – all utter irrelevancies," Roth wrote in an op-ed for the British newspaper The Guardian and in a post on X...

Europe is 'totally unprepared' for Russia's tactics of hybrid warfare, defence officials have warned amid mounting fear that Moscow is already sabotaging critical infrastructure on the continent in anticipation of a wider conflict. Western leaders have accused Russia of sabotaging vital cables in the Baltic twice within 48 hours, after Biden relaxed rules on Ukraine firing long-range missiles into Russia and amid speculation Europe may follow suit. But with both sides so far stopping short of engaging in direct conflict, defence sources have warned that the West is improperly prepared to thwart Moscow's efforts to destabilise by meddling in European...
