(left to right) Rep. Benny Thoompson , NY County District Attorney Alvin Bragg, NY AG Letitia James, Fulton County DA Fani Willis, and radical Judge Tanya Chutkan “Cannon fodder” is a term used to describe combatants thought to be expendable. Those who send “cannon fodder” into battle have little regard for their well-being. A high casualty rate they see as the price to pay for accomplishing some strategic goal, in the case in question, the removal of Donald Trump from the battlefield. The question needs to be asked, why did Democrat strategists push Black officials into the forefront of their...

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump’s enforcement operations in Washington, D.C., have resulted in more than 1,000 arrests in less than a month, White House data shared with The Daily Wire show. The president’s enforcement operation began on Thursday, August 7, and since then, there have been a total of 1,094 arrests, a White House official shared with The Daily Wire.

Authorities have also seized 115 firearms, the White House official shared, and cleared 49 homeless encampments through the...

On this week’s episode of “Come and Take It,” Sara examines the record of Texas Senator John Cornyn, who claims to be a close ally of President Donald Trump. Does he actually align with the Make America Great Again agenda, or is he a fraud trying to win in the primary against Texas AG Ken Paxton? (video)

Julie Felss Masino and board ignored Sardar Biglari's criticism of $700M transformation plan calling it 'obvious folly'. Cracker Barrel’s slide into a rebranding debacle began with a phone call at 4:30 p.m. on May 16, 2024. That day, Cracker Barrel’s new CEO, Julie Felss Masino, got on the phone with investors and unveiled the details of a "strategic transformation plan" her board of directors had approved. The first of "five pillars" in the plan would be "refining" and "evolving the brand across all touchpoints." Over the next months, Masino and her board of directors dismissed at least four warnings by...

Dr. Sherri Tenpenny (Dr. T) was one of the first doctors to sound the alarm on the CV19 “vaccine” and the death and disability in the millions by injecting it into billions of people around the world. The CV19 vax nightmare is not going away–just the opposite. Dr. T says, “It is going to continue to grow. . .. We have just a handful of data bases in our country, the UK and Europe. We don’t have data bases for countries such as China, India, Maylasia, South America or any of the other countries. So, it’s only a guess of...

Mr. Trump has resisted his itch to fire Fed Chair Jerome Powell on the savvy advice that he could rattle markets and trigger an extended court battle. But Ms. Cook said Tuesday she’ll challenge her removal, so Mr. Trump will still get his legal fight in what could be a landmark case. The Cook firing is a calculated putsch. Federal Housing Finance Agency director Bill Pulte teed up the dismissal last week when he posted a criminal referral for Ms. Cook on social media. He said she may have committed mortgage fraud by claiming two different homes as primary residences...

There’s a certain way Democrat leaders are speaking in recent days, and they’re all expressing some variation of what the party’s national committee chair said this week: Democrats “cannot be the only party that plays by the rules anymore.” Everyone should interpret that to mean Democrats are out for blood, literally. That’s in no way an overstatement, not least because Democrats spent a significant portion of the last election season openly fantasizing about legally murdering Donald Trump (and then ultimately shrugging when he was actually shot). There’s simply no other way to explain it. To be sure, here’s what...

Internet sleuths have uncovered a likely illegal scheme where U.S. companies and job search sites are systematically hiding lucrative job openings from qualified, skilled American workers, all to funnel those jobs directly to foreign workers through H-1B and green card Permanent Labor Certification “PERM” loopholes. The scheme is as dirty as it gets: corporations bury ads in obscure corners of the internet or tiny Sunday print listings, while deliberately keeping those same jobs off their main career sites where real Americans are actually looking. Why? So they can claim to have “advertised” positions to U.S. citizens while quietly handing them...

One snake, two venoms — and the wrong antivenom could make the difference between life and death. Credit: Shutterstock Researchers have uncovered a hidden split in the venom of Australia’s deadly Eastern Brown Snake. Southern populations create rock-solid blood clots, while northern snakes produce fragile clots that collapse almost instantly — two very different paths to the same deadly outcome. This discovery raises urgent concerns about whether current antivenoms, made from pooled venoms of unclear origin, can fully protect patients across regions. Antivenom Effectiveness Questioned A new study from the University of Queensland suggests that the antivenom used to treat...

What we know: An Amtrak Police Sergeant observed a man on a scooter, identified as Scott Pichon, approach two members of the South Carolina Army National Guard. The incident happened on Friday, August 22, at 4:43 p.m., according to a statement of facts from the FBI. The two guardsmen were on active federal duty as part of the presidential initiative to "Make the District of Columbia Safe and Beautiful". The sergeant reportedly observed Pichon make a noise as if he were coughing up mucus and then spit a mixture of saliva and mucus on the two guardsmen. The mixture landed...

Autism claims rose from $3 million to $400 million. The $250 million ‘Feeding Our Future’ free food fraud in which Somali groups stole a quarter of a billion dollars while claiming to feed hundreds of thousands of children who never existed seemed like the biggest case of welfare fraud in Minnesota, but it may be just the beginning. Somali autism fraud, partly linked to the ‘Feeding Our Future’ scam, may be even bigger and after the FBI raids of autism clinics last December, the scale of it is still being put together. The pattern in both Somali meals for children...

“The Chancellor was warned by leading economists this weekend that her looming tax rises risk a return to the high inflation and borrowing that forced a previous Labour government to borrow billions from the International Monetary Fund (IMF)….”

U.S. — Taylor Swift's love story came to an abrupt end after a referee jumped out of the bushes following her engagement to football player Travis Kelce and overturned the proposal. The lovestruck couple reportedly jumped when the ref loudly blew his whistle and gestured wildly from the bushes. "The player's knee did not make full contact with the ground. This engagement is null and void," the referee said, signaling the call with a professional hand gesture. "The ring must be removed from Taylor Swift's finger and returned to its case. Repeat 4th-down." The ruling was challenged but upheld after...

A groundbreaking study reveals racial bias in jury convictions, “When we break down this study we find that - Black juries have a 12% conviction rate against black defendants, vs a 59% against whites. So that indicates that there is a 47% interracial bias when you have black jurors - White juries have a 33% conviction rate against white defendants, vs a 26% against blacks, which actually demonstrates a negative 7% interracial bias Meaning whites are more likely to convict their co-racial group than they are to convict somebody across racial lines Whereas black juries have a 12% conviction rate...

The Justice Department is asking a federal court to dismiss a lawsuit brought against it by members of the Proud Boys who claim their convictions related to the January 6, 2021, Capitol attack were the result of “political prosecution.” In court filing Monday, the Justice Department argued the lawsuit should be tossed out for reasons including that “the malicious prosecution claim lacks merit; and the United States is not liable for punitive damages.” DOJ’s defense of the prosecutions, however, appears to go against what Republicans and President Donald Trump’s allies have long argued: that the hundreds of cases brought against...
