A Texas Republican lawmaker, Candy Noble, has been roasted by one of her Democratic counterparts for passing what’s become known as the “Ten Commandments” bill on the Sabbath. Listen to this article 0:06 / 3:21 On Sunday (26 May), Senate Bill 10 – part of a push in Texas to increase the role of religion in schools – was moved forward, passing the house by 82-46, meaning that from September every public school classroom in Texas could be required to display the Ten Commandments. A viral video posted on TikTok, which has been viewed more than three million times and...

CNN anchor Jake Tapper argued the left’s reaction to him revealing his 15-year-old son wants to be a police officer is the exact reason they are losing elections. Tapper and his Original Sin co-author Alex Thompson joined Scott Galloway on The Prof G Pod on Thursday, and Tapper at one point recounted how a left-leaning podcaster made a racism jab about his son after Tapper revealed he wanted to go into law enforcement. “My son is now 15 years old, and he’s a gamer. He’s a football fan, starting linebacker on his varsity football team. The Democratic Party has no...

Pro-life organization Mayday USA held a rally at Cal Anderson Park — the site of CHOP and many BLM protests — for its “DontMessWithOurKids” national tour, which hundreds attended to support biological reality, family, and religious freedom.

Several police officers were assaulted while trying to make arrests and control the chaos, and one officer was injured and taken...

The Chrisleys, who starred in the television show Chrisley Knows Best and several spin-offs, were found guilty in 2022 of defrauding banks out of $30 million. Julie Chrisley is serving time in Kentucky, while Todd Chrisley is serving time in Florida.

A group of Christians are demanding an apology from Democratic Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell after he called their event — which far-left rioters had disrupted — an “extreme right-wing rally.” Evangelicals supporting Mayday USA plan to rally Tuesday outside Seattle’s City Hall following Mayor Bruce Harrell’s Saturday statement on that day’s altercation. Harrell called the group’s “Don’t Mess With Our Kids” event in Cal Anderson Park an “extreme right-wing rally,” and claimed in his statement that the event was held specifically to “provoke a reaction by promoting beliefs that are inherently opposed to our city’s values, in the heart of...

New statistics out of Germany reveal that foreign-born women, but specifically foreign-born Muslim women, are far more violent than native German men. The Remix News staff, which reported on the story, quipped that the revelation “blows up a common myth that has been perpetuated by the left for years”—that men are so violent, a bear is preferable company. (Again, never mind the fact that men, to their own detriment, have been protecting their women for essentially all of human history.) Here are the numbers for 2024: Out of 100,000 people, German men were suspects in violent offenses in 272 cases....

The Trump DOJ on Tuesday asked the US Supreme Court to intervene in and pause a lower court’s order to ground a plane that transported several dangerous aliens to South Sudan. “The invasion of illegal aliens must end, and the conduct of our nation’s foreign policy cannot be directed by a single federal court judge,” US Attorney General Pam Bondi said. “DOJ has asked the Supreme Court to intervene to stop this insanity so that President Trump can continue to deport the worst of the worst illegal aliens,” Bondi said. US District Judge Brian Murphy, a Biden appointee on Monday...

Universities and colleges across the country can thank Harvard for this latest development. If federal courts won't allow the Department of Homeland Security to deal directly with Harvard on compliance for the Student Education Visa Program (SEVP), the administration can simply make it more difficult for everyone instead. That seems to be the case today, although this may have accelerated a project that would have started soon anyway. After a federal court issued a stay that allows Harvard to continue enrolling foreign students, the Trump administration paused the entire program. Embassies and consulates have been ordered to stop conducting necessary...

[Catholic Caucus] Bishop Martin Crushes Charlotte Diocese Traditional Latin Mass CatholicsCharlotte, N.C. - Following upon the retired Bishop Peter Jugis’ initial implementation in 2023 of Pope Francis’s motu proprio that back-tracked on all of the previous Pope’s declarations of the pre-Conciliar Mass (and sacraments) having never been abrogated, Bishop Michael T. Martin slammed the door on traditional Catholics eliminating the Sunday Traditional Mass at the four parishes currently offering it. These included parishes in Greensboro, two in Charlotte, and Tryon.Coincidentally, The Remnant broke the initial story when the indult Latin Mass was first approved for Charlotte. (INSERT STORY LINK.

Timothy Schultz, a 42-year-old Florida man, survived an apparent gator bite only to die Monday after attacking deputies with garden shears, authorities said. Polk County Sheriff’s Office (PCSO) Grady Judd alleged in a press conference that Schultz was high on meth during his swim in an alligator-infested lake and subsequent rampage with shears. While Schultz was swimming in the lake, one person tried to warn him about the gators and another threw a life vest at him, according to the sheriff. A gator then appeared to bite his right arm, Judd said. When Schultz emerged from the lake, he allegedly...

He made a documentary film titled Silenced about the boy and the legal consequences Robinson faced for repeating his claims, which he shared on X, formerly Twitter, owned by the billionaire Musk.

Gender Affirming Surgeries and Complications While some trans and non-binary people transition their gender socially without changing their bodies, or with only hormone therapy, many choose to have surgery to help align their body with their sense of identity, and to decrease dysphoria. Some of these procedures are small, and fall into the category of minor plastic surgery, while others are more comparable to major invasive surgeries. It is important to remember that there is no one way to be trans or non-binary, and different patients will have had some, all, or none of these procedures. In addition, there is...

News From the Front: The ‘Migrant Hell’ in France May 27, 2025 2:00 pm By Hugh Fitzgerald6 Comments Muslims in France now constitute 10% of the population. They are in the country to live off the largesse the generous French welfare state provides: free or greatly subsidized housing, free medical care, free education including language lessons and vocational training, family allowances, and more. They are happy to pocket all this, and in no hurry to be employed. Instead, “pour finir le mois” — to “round out the month” — in case what they receive from the state is not enough,...

The WNBA says it cannot substantiate claims that racist fan behavior took place during a game in Indianapolis between the Chicago Sky and Indiana Fever earlier this month. The league said its investigation included gathering information from fans, team and arena staff, as well as an "audio and video review of the game." The league said, "we have not substantiated it." The WNBA, according to a person familiar with the investigation, was probing claims that racist comments were directed toward Chicago’s Angel Reese by fans during the loss to WNBA rookie of the year Caitlin Clark and the Fever. Reese,...

In a rare moment of honesty from the left, retiring Democrat Senator Michael Bennet of Colorado is sounding the alarm — not about Republicans, but about the crumbling state of his own party. During a CNN interview on Sunday, Bennet torched the Democratic brand, admitting what millions of Americans already know: today’s Democratic Party is out of touch, unpopular, and fundamentally failing. . . . Bennet, who is positioning himself for a gubernatorial run in Colorado in 2026, didn’t hold back. He expressed “fury” at his party’s inability to defeat Trump, even after years of media smears, endless investigations, and...
