There's a new Gaza aid organization, the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), sponsored by Israel and the United States, that the UN and most international aid groups oppose. The UN says the group was engaged in “engineered scarcity” rather than feeding Gazans. In fact, the whole purpose of the GHF was to prevent the UN and other NGO aid groups from using Hamas-controlled conduits to deliver aid. Israel suspects that those conduits divert aid from civilians to feed Hamas terrorists.The UN rejects that claim and says the biggest problem with the Foundation is that they don't give aid to everyone who...

The Medical Council of Canada has claimed that American doctors are now fleeing in droves due to Trump administration policies.

Separately, medical licensing organizations in Canada’s most populous provinces reported a rise in Americans either applying for or receiving Canadian licenses, with at...

A Cholla High School student has reached out to the News 4 Tucson Investigators after alleging that a history teacher compared President Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler during a World War II lesson. The student recorded parts of the lecture, feeling the teacher's comments were inappropriate. "...your generation with the lowest information level is the biggest supporter of Donald Trump, he has that in common with Hitler too," said the teacher in the recording. The student who captured the recording expressed concern over the teacher's comments and says it's hardly the first time they have blended their personal opinions into...

Florida sheriffs don’t take kindly to being threatened, even if its from thousands of miles away. Matthew Moulton, 45, of Washington, learned that lesson last week when Volusia Sheriff Mike Chitwood met him at the airport and gave him a private ride right to the county jail. In March, a detective with the Volusia Sheriff’s Office discovered a rambling email sent by Moulton to Sheriff Chitwood, in which he details his grievances with the sheriff. According to the affidavit, he appears to take issue with a campaign Chitwood launched last year, where he posted the mugshots and ‘perp walks’ of...

Texas lawmakers voted to pass a bill that would remove short-barrel firearms from the state's list of banned weapons.If it becomes law, the legislation, SB 1596, would mark a shift in Texas firearms policy as debate about gun control and public safety continues. The bill has come under scrutiny, as a similar type of firearm was used in a 2018 school shooting in Santa Fe, Texas.The Texas House of Representatives voted to pass the bill Wednesday afternoon, bringing it one step closer to becoming law. It passed mostly by party lines, with only three Democrats joining Republicans in passing the...

Wilted Ivy elucidated the high-level connections between academia and the Deep State. The Harvard Control Grid showed their framework of control. Now … lets see the Ivy Web. The End of Illusion Begins in Cambridge For over a century, Harvard University sat at the center of the Western world’s intellectual web - an elite fortress cloaked in prestige, draped in crimson, and entrusted with shaping presidents, policy, and public trust. But that trust was built on illusion. The recent cascade of revelations, liquidations, and criminal convictions has exposed something far darker: Harvard was never just a school. It was a...

Just a question of curiosity. If people were allowed to forego paying their taxes on their personal incomes, but paid taxes on their investment incomes created by the personal income that they aren't paying taxes on, would it be a net positive for the government over the long-term or a net negative in taxes paid for the government over the long-term?

Committee investigation.. The House Oversight Committee is investigating the use of the autopen in Biden's administration. The committee is seeking interviews with four former Biden staffers and Biden's physician, Dr. Kevin O’Connor, to determine whether the autopen was used to sign executive orders and pardons without Biden’s knowledge. Staffer involvement.. The staffers queried were not widely known to the public but could have acted as "de facto presidents," according to House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, who claims these individuals were instrumental in White House operations. Cognitive ability concerns.. The investigation focuses partly on Biden’s cognitive health, with Comer suggesting...

Explanation: Grand spiral galaxies often seem to get all the attention, flaunting young, bright, blue star clusters and pinkish star forming regions along graceful, symmetric spiral arms. But small galaxies form stars too, like irregular dwarf galaxy Sextans A. Its young star clusters and star forming regions are gathered into a gumdrop-shaped region a mere 5,000 light-years across. Seen toward the navigational constellation Sextans, the small galaxy lies some 4.5 million light-years distant. That puts it near the outskirts of the local group of galaxies, that includes the large, massive spirals Andromeda and our own Milky Way. Brighter Milky Way...

We have been frequent critics of Donald Trump’s tariffs, but we understand that there is a case to be made for reconsidering some of our trade policies. The place to make that case is Congress — not by unilateral presidential declaration of open-ended worldwide “emergencies.” The Founders rebelled against taxation without representation; they did not mean for the executive to control the duties on all imports by daily whim. It is Congress that was granted power by the Constitution to “lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises” and to “regulate Commerce with foreign Nations,” and for good reason. It...

Partisan targeting or legitimate antitrust inquiry?The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is seeking documents from the left-leaning nonprofit Media Matters to determine whether the self-styled watchdog conspired with other organizations to orchestrate illegal advertiser boycotts of conservative news sites in violation of antitrust laws. In 2024, Elon Musk sued the company for allegedly costing his X platform billions of dollars in lost advertising revenue, leading some observers to criticize the current FTC inquiry as a Musk-inspired alliance.What FTC SeeksThe FTC seeks communications between Media Matters and the Global Alliance for Responsible Media (GARM) — a cross-industry initiative of the World Federation...

So they have a $20 million plan Not only is the Democrat party is still reeling from Trump’s landslide election victory, now it’s facing the disheartening news that for the first time in Rasmussen polling history, a full 50 percent of the country believes the United States is on the right track. The Dems are wrestling with an existential crisis, questioning where they went wrong and how to win voters back.Even The New York Times acknowledged last weekend thatWorking-class voters of every race have been steadily drifting toward the G.O.P. And Democrats are increasingly perceived as the party of college-educated...

Last week, unelected District Court Judge Brian Murphy told the Trump administration that it must bring back an illegal alien who was deported because, according to Murphy, the alien needs due process — and the Trump administration buckled. In court filings on Wednesday, the Department of Justice (DOJ) said it would bring back the illegal alien, designated by the initials O.C.G., after Murphy ruled that the administration “ignored” certain steps in the removal process. But Trump should buck rogue judges, not buckle to them. Just this past week, another district court judge ordered the Trump administration to continue to allow...
