Volodymyr Zelensky delivered a masterful charm offensive to win over President Donald Trump and set up a potential meeting with Vladimir Putin to end the years long war in Ukraine. Trump hyped a face-to-face meeting between Putin and Zelensky after he called the Russian leader following a dramatic summit in the White House with European leaders. The potential peace deal immediately drew skeptics, as French President Emmanuel Macron said he did not ‘see President Putin very willing to get peace now.’ Zelensky laid the groundwork by offering a $100 billion weapons deal as an olive branch to Trump. The Ukrainian...

A deranged woman was hit with federal charges Monday after threatening to kill President Trump in a disturbing social media post and subsequent interview with the Secret Service. Nathalie Rose Jones, 50, was arrested on Saturday after she made the threats on Facebook and Instagram and then traveled from New York to Washington, DC, with the goal of having Trump “eliminated” if the opportunity presented itself, DC US Attorney Jeanine Pirro said Monday. “I am willing to sacrificially kill this POTUS by disemboweling him and cutting out his trachea with Liz Cheney and all The Affirmation present,” Jones allegedly wrote...

Sword-wielding MS-13 thugs who have been terrorizing Long Islanders for years have been rounded up as part of a sweeping Nassau County crackdown of nearly 40 of the notorious gang’s street soldiers — on attempted murder, weapons and illicit drug charges. Included in the massive bust were five college-aged thugs — accused of being part of the deadly MS-13’s Hempstead Locos Salvatruchas branch — who were allegedly responsible for a machete and knife attack that wounded six during a soccer game in broad daylight at the town’s Kennedy Memorial Park last October. The attack was so gruesome that one victim...

This bill aims to mandate a comprehensive audit of the Federal Reserve's operations and enhance congressional oversight of its decision-making processes.

"Congress must hold the Fed accountable and pull back the curtain on the actions of this unelected Washington establishment." Paul emphasized the significant influence of the Federal Reserve, stating,...

Tucker Carlson recently interviewed Ted Cruz, and by all accounts, it was a train wreck. Tucker was quite aggressive and did not let Cruz answer. It did not appear that Cruz was adequately prepared, misquoting verses and not knowing the references. I thought it would be good to address the one issue that is something I can speak into, and that is Tucker’s confusion over whether rebirthed Israel is the Israel that the Bible speaks of. Dear Tucker, It was excruciating, watching the short clip of you asking Ted Cruz about Israel. You told him, “I’m a Christian. I want...

A Las Vegas teen who shot and killed his own father during a fight over electronics evaded prison time when a judge only sentenced him to probation Thursday, according to a report.

District Judge Tierra Jones ordered probation for Peterson — bucking prosecutors’ request that the convicted killer spend at least six years behind bars, according to the Las...

Popular Science reports that German scientists used advanced technology to virtually unroll a delicate ancient Buddhist scroll. For centuries, Mongolian nomads often carried portable Buddhist shrines, known as gungervaa, with them wherever they traveled. These sometimes contained statues, decorative objects, religious relics, and spiritual keepsakes. Most notably, they often held dharanis, tiny scrolls featuring prayers that were commonly stored in silk pouches. During the Mongolian Revolution of 1921, this tradition was almost completely eradicated and many of these shrines were destroyed. One gungervaa, however, made its way into the collection of the Ethnological Museum in Berlin, where it remained in...

Videos showed not only the moment of impact but the driver of the semi, Harjinder Singh, looking emotionless while standing outside his vehicle as first responders frantically tried to reach the...

A documentary about the suffering of evangelical Christians in Ukraine shows how one objective of the Russian invasion is to degrade Christianity, including allowing Chechen Muslims to partially Islamize occupied areas. Steven Moore, founder of Ukraine Freedom Project and co-producer of A Faith Under Siege, said from the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv that the country was surprisingly “highly functioning” despite the challenges of consistent attacks against the population – a drone-and-missile attack reported on Thursday night (July 30) resulted in 16 people dead, including a 6-year-old boy and another child. “It’s understandable if people outside Ukraine think that Kyiv could...
