Reckless and irresponsible reporting by major U.S. news outlets are contributing to the antisemitic climate that has resulted in the murder of two young people at an Israeli Embassy event in Washington last month and the attempted murder and terror attack on a group of pro-Israel demonstrators in Colorado on Sunday. Without verification of any source other than Hamas and its collaborators, the New York Times, CNN, and Associated Press reported that a number of people seeking to receive humanitarian food boxes from the Gaza Humanitarian Fund were shot or killed by the Israeli Defense Forces. These reports were FALSE....

Polish voters elected a conservative nationalist aligned with the Trump administration to the presidency Monday, dealing a blow to the European Union (EU), according to CNN. Karol Nawrocki, a member of the right-wing populist Law and Justice Party (PiS), won a narrow victory with 50.89% of the vote over Rafał Trzaskowsk, the liberal mayor of Warsaw, according to CNN. Nawrocki is expected to have good relations with the Trump administration once he takes office, and the election results are likely to stymie Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk’s vision to more closely align Poland with the EU. Nawrocki now holds the...

Lynn Segal, a 72-year-old woman who participated in Sunday's vigil, noted in an interview with the AP that the attack came despite the fact that participants such as herself support the Palestinian cause. In Israel, family members of hostages are largely critical of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his war effort, which has killed tens of thousands of Palestinians

Democratic Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett said on Sunday that she has no intention of running for president of the United States. Crockett has risen to prominence with her racially-charged rants and incendiary anti-Republican attacks, including calling wheelchair-bound Texas Gov. Greg Abbott “Governor Hot Wheels.” On “Inside Texas Politics,” host Jason Whitely asserted Crockett’s name has appeared in 2028 polls and asked whether she has presidential aspirations, prompting Crockett to definitively answer, “No.” (RELATED: Dem Rep Thinks Potential Gov’t Shutdown Could Save Bureaucrats From Getting Booted By Trump Admin) “What do you make of that then, your name showing up on...

Poland elected a conservative nationalist, Karol Nawrocki, to lead the country as its next president, in an election that could have broad implications for the future of Europe Nawrocki is set to take office Aug. 6. Here’s what to know about the election: Visit with Donald Trump last month President Trump hosted Nawrocki at the White House last month, in a sign of support shortly before the election. The two men posed for photos, shaking hands and giving a thumbs-up gesture in the Oval Office. Nawrocki told the Polish TV station TV Republika that Trump told him, “you will win,”...

A groundbreaking study reveals that mRNA vaccines trigger irreversible destruction of women’s primordial follicles — the finite ‘egg reserve’ that dictates fertility and menopause timing. Karaman et al. (2024) found that rats injected with human-equivalent mRNA COVID-19 doses suffered: more than 60% loss of primordial follicles (*p* < 0.001) — the non-renewable foundation of female fertility plummeting Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) — a key marker of ovarian reserve a surge in follicle apoptosis (cell death) via elevated TGF-β1, VEGF, and caspase-3. If this translates to humans, the implications are dire. Think early menopause, infertility, and a generational fertility crash. There are...

Have you considered that you simply don't hate the press enough? If you think you do, you might find yourself reconsidering after reading this latest story. As RedState reported, a pro-Palestinian terrorist in Colorado threw Molotov cocktails at peaceful marchers as they silently remembered the hostages being held by Hamas. The attack took place in Boulder, injuring at least five people. Police arrested Mohamad Soliman at the scene, with videos showing him shouting "Palestine is free" and "end Zionists" as he attempted to burn innocent people alive. In the aftermath of such an attack, you'd hope that press outlets would...

The world is awash in predictions of when the singularity will occur or when artificial general intelligence (AGI) will arrive. Some experts predict it will never happen, while others are marking their calendars for 2026. A new macro analysis of surveys over the past 15 years shows where scientists and industry experts stand on the question and how their predictions have changed over time, especially after the arrival of large language models like ChatGPT. Although predictions vary across a span of almost a half-century, most agree than AGI will arrive before the end of the 21st century. SNIP

A man from Ajax who was arrested earlier this month for the alleged sexual assault of a 14-year-old girl is facing new charges stemming from a sexual relationship with another young female teen. Durham Regional Police Service (DRPS) officers began an investigation on April 30 after receiving information in Hamilton that a young teen had been sexually assaulted and forcibly confined in the Ajax area. “The suspect picked up the 14-year-old victim in Hamilton and drove her to Ajax, where she was confined and sexually assaulted over a period of days,” police said in a statement. On May 2, Gowryshankar...

A bizarre planet may orbit two brown dwarfs in a steep, pole-skimming path—an unheard-of tilt that challenges our understanding of planetary motion. Detected via gravitational wobbles, it might be the first polar-orbiting circumbinary planet ever found. Credit: SciTechDaily.com =================================================================== Astronomers have discovered one of the weirdest planetary systems yet: a possible planet, 2M1510 b, appears to orbit over the poles of two brown dwarfs in a sharply tilted path—almost perpendicular to their own orbit. This freakish setup, unlike anything in our solar system, was detected not by a dip in starlight but through subtle gravitational wobbles captured using ESO’s Very...

There are about 533 million firearms in private hands in the United States of America in 2025. The current population is estimated at 343 million people. This gives a record number of 1.55 firearms for every person in the United States. The number of privately owned firearms in the United States is growing by 15-20 million firearms a year.The number of firearms which are privately owned in the United States is not clear and obvious or easily measured. There has never been a registry of firearms for the United States. A national firearms registry is forbidden by law. There are...

Humanity’s trajectory once bent toward progress in a region now dominated by stagnation. Ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, Persia, the Levant, these were the fonts of civilization. They birthed the first laws, invented writing, pioneered math, and constructed monumental architecture that still defies modern imitation. Yet these once-dazzling societies, upon embracing Islam, began a long, measured descent. A faith that proclaimed itself a new revelation to mankind did not elevate these societies beyond their pagan pasts, it arrested their evolution and, more gravely, outlawed much of the progress they had already achieved. Inquiry became heresy. Innovation became blasphemy. The gears of advancement,...

DAVID BROOKS, NEW YORK TIMES: Yes, I'm not sure it was wreckage. There was wreckage if you're at NIH. There are wreckage at certain agencies, but the guy only saved $65 billion out of a multitrillion-dollar budget. So, as a budget matter, you would not say he had a big effect, but he did manage to destroy NIH and USAID. And the USAID one is the one I haven't gotten over. And so there's folks at Boston University who count, how many people have died because of what DOGE did at USAID? And USAID was a very ill-managed organization. That's...

.. The petitioners have been a consortium of environmental groups and neighbors of the project in southern Boulder County who filed a lawsuit in 2018 against Denver Water and the Army Corps of Engineers which approved the project, as well as the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Their primary objections were to drawing water from the headwaters of the Colorado River on other side of the Continental Divide through the Moffat Water Tunnel, clearing the trees as part of the project to enlarge the reservoir, and effects on wildlife, including elk habitat.

Delegations from Russia and Ukraine ended their latest peace talks Monday in Turkey after just over an hour, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Russian state media said. Speaking in Vilnius, Lithuania, Zelenskyy said both sides “exchanged documents through the Turkish side, and we are preparing a new release of prisoners of the war.” Expectations were low for any breakthrough on ending the 3-year-old war after a string of stunning attacks over the weekend. Recent comments by senior officials in both countries indicate they remain far apart on the key conditions for stopping the war.

Since President Trump took office in January, the average price for a dozen eggs has plummeted from $6.49 on January 21 to just $2.52 today. That is a 61 percent drop, Fox News points out. It is an even bigger drop from the $8.00 per dozen average eggs hit in March. Some of that price drop can be attributed to the decrease in demand caused by those insane price increases, as well as fewer bird flu cases. Where the Trump administration deserves the most credit is its decision to proactively increase the importation of eggs from foreign countries until America’s...

The Heritage Foundation claims that, “Biden’s name was signed using an autopen on nearly every executive order and official document during his four-year tenure.” Did he delegate the decision to approve and sign, or did he direct someone to use the autopen on his behalf? If so, why couldn’t he sign these documents himself? President Trump signed 143 executive orders during the first 100 days of his second term, setting a record; most of these signings took place in front of the media and were video recorded. Why couldn’t President Biden do the same? If he was unable to sign...

During this week’s broadcast of “Fox News Sunday,” Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick downplayed efforts by federal courts, including the Court of International Trade, to stymy the Trump administration’s use of tariffs. “OK, so we want to start here with the Court of International Trade,” host Shannon Bream said. “This is a decision that went against the president days ago. They said because of the Constitution’s express allocation of the tariff power to Congress, an unlimited delegation of tariff authority to the president would constitute an improper abdication of legislative power to another branch of government. Just to boil that down,...

A dangerous flesh-eating parasite is rapidly marching toward the United States despite several desperate efforts to halt its advance. And one can thank the Mexican drug cartels for this. As The Atlantic notes, the United States has been fighting an aerial war against the New World screwworm for 70 years. This parasite eats animals alive, including cows, pigs, deer, dogs, and even humans. The larvae of the parasitic fly harboring the worm rip through flesh and transform small pricks into huge, revolting wounds. Worse, they produce foul-smelling odors resembling sewer gas. It’s no wonder the worm’s scientific name, C. hominivorax,...
