    Kid Rock has blamed America's declining birth rate on 'ugly' and 'deranged' Trump-hating liberal women. The musician, 54, made the outlandish claim Thursday night during an interview with Fox News host Jesse Watters. Watters shared footage of a group of liberal protesters and opened a discussion to criticize their appearances. 'When you play your concerts, do you ever see anybody with blue hair, armpit hair– female armpit hair? Some of these people we're looking at, Kid, I don't know,' he said. The Bawitdaba hitmaker, whose real name is Robert James Ritchie, issued his shocking response, suggesting the alleged lack of...

  • “Black Fatigue” Goes Viral: Everyone — Including Blacks — Is Tired of Ghetto Behavior

    The progressive ideal is largely to blame for the monstrous creation that is ghetto culture. The idea that racial narcissism among blacks should not only be tolerated but celebrated has led to a surge in open animosity for societal rules and standards within the US. Far more than any other group, the black community makes up the largest share of physical crime according to their percentage of the population. This includes robbery, aggravated assault, and homicides. For example, black Americans make up only 13% of the population but commit around 52% of all homicides according to FBI statistics. The recent...
  • Has the Trump Administration Found a Country to Take Gazans?

    A new and unconfirmed report says that the Trump administration is trying to make a deal with Libya to take in a large number of Gazans as the administration continues to search for a way to clear the Gaza Strip of terrorists and jihad-loving “civilians” alike. But there is another reason for the Trump administration focusing on Libya. In 2011, the US froze $34 billion in Libyan assets, afraid that Qaddafi, then facing a popular uprising, might use that money to help himself stay in power.

    Haaretz reports that archaeologists uncovered rare and somewhat perplexing figurines from two 1,500-year-old Christian burials at the site of Tel Malhata in the Negev Desert. The discovery was made during salvage excavations on the grounds of the Nevatim airbase, where previous archaeological work has revealed a rich history of human occupation from the Bronze Age through the Byzantine period. During the latest excavations, teams located some 155 tombs, but two burials contained objects different from anything else found at the site -- bone and wooden figurines with facial features resembling Africans. Two of them were carved from ebony, a rare...

    WASHINGTON (AP) — Republicans will look to get their massive tax cut and border security package back on track during a rare Sunday night committee meeting after that same panel voted against advancing the measure two days earlier, a setback that Speaker Mike Johnson is looking to reverse quickly.Deficit hawks joined with Democratic lawmakers on the House Budget Committee in voting against reporting the measure to the full House. Five Republicans voted no, one on procedural grounds, the other four voicing concerns about the bill’s impact on federal budget deficits. Johnson expressed confidence the bill will advance out of the...

    This band approached Rupert Holmes and asked him to write them a song that would be banned. Rupert said okay, but why must it be banned? Their response was that we have no label sponsoring us, so if we have a hit that the radio stations will ban that we will receive name recognition. The song Rupert came up with was Timothy, which was banned. The Buoys never quite hit the bigtime. They changed their name to Dakota and became the opening band for Queen. This was one of the songs they did after their 25 year reunion in 2005....

    He missed the boat on this one. Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) on Sunday bizarrely suggested that DOGE cuts to the US Coast Guard could have been partly to blame for a Mexican tall ship’s deadly collision with the Brooklyn Bridge. “We know there has been meddling by the Trump administration into USCG staffing, and we need to know how this might have impacted the events of last night — from a command, communication and local coordination level,” the embattled Dem said in a press release. “There are indications that this service [Vehicle Traffic System] may not be fully or adequately...

    Some 2,500 documents, photos, and belongings of executed spy Eli Cohen were retrieved from Syria in a special Mossad operation, the Prime Minister's Office said on Sunday. The trove was recovered due to a secret, complex operation in cooperation with the official Syrian archive, which held thousands of classified items ever since his capture and subsequent execution in Damascus's al-Marjeh Square in 1965. The items included the keys to his Damascus apartment, forged passports, and photos he took during his espionage, particularly of senior Syrian officials. He also left behind notebooks and diaries that were seized by Syria's intelligence...

    Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) tore into House Republicans over sinking a key committee vote that would help advance President Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” calling it a “real misstep.” “The stock market seems like it is moving up. Now, if Congress can start doing the things that President Trump’s doing, it would even help us more. Today was a real misstep on the Republicans’ part, in the budget side, that four of them looked out for themselves instead of moving the bill along, reconciliation,” McCarthy said during an appearance on John Catsimatidis’s radio show, “Cats Roundtable” on...

    Explanation: What if you could fly over Pluto -- what might you see? The New Horizons spacecraft did just this in 2015 July as it shot past the distant world at a speed of about 80,000 kilometers per hour. Images from this spectacular passage have been color enhanced, vertically scaled, and digitally combined into the featured two-minute time-lapse video. As your journey begins, light dawns on mountains thought to be composed of water ice but colored by frozen nitrogen. Soon, to your right, you see a flat sea of mostly solid nitrogen that has segmented into strange polygons that are...

    Rep. Jim Clyburn claimed “still” believes former President Joe Biden could’ve served out another four years as president, despite mounting evidence of cognitive decline. “Yes, I thought that back then. I still think that, but I don’t know that,” Clyburn told CNN’s “State of the Union” Sunday when asked if Biden could’ve served out another term that he would’ve completed at age 86. Still, Clyburn, 84, who is widely credited with rescuing Biden’s then-flailing presidential bid in 2020, admitted that Biden’s disastrous debate performance against President Trump in June of last year had him second-guessing that belief. “I watched that...
