AMBLESIDE, ENGLAND — British authorities have arrested a man calling himself Saint George after he brandished a dangerous bladed weapon at a local dragon, which was merely minding its own business of terrorizing the local populace.

President Donald Trump appears to have finally drawn a line in the sand against the radical leftist, anti-American political chaos machine that George Soros has fueled with his ungodly billions over the years. Trump took to Truth Social August 27 to publicly lambast the leftist billionaire and called for criminal charges to be filed against: “George Soros, and his wonderful Radical Left son [Alex], should be charged with RICO because of their support of Violent Protests, and much more, all throughout the United States of America.” The president continued: “We’re not going to allow these lunatics to rip apart America...

SCOTLAND — As part of a sweeping effort to put a stop to Muslim migrant rape gangs terrorizing the country, UK authorities have begun rounding up and arresting all potential rape victims. Experts say this will effectively put an end to migrant rape crimes in England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.

"We will begin by arresting all women under 52 years old, and then we will hide them in highly secure prison cells in...

CNN Senior Justice Correspondent Evan Perez inaccurately claimed Wednesday that semiautomatic firearms could fire “dozens of bullets” with a single pull of the trigger while covering a Minneapolis shooting. An active shooter opened fire during an all-school mass held by the Annunciation Catholic School on Wednesday morning, killing at least two children and injuring 17. Perez made the comments on “The Situation Room” before there was any official information about the type of firearm used. “It was really disturbing to hear what the man we heard from the affiliate said about how long it went on,” co-host Pamela Brown said....

The far-left radical movement known as Antifa has been getting its own taste of cancel culture. Just look at what happened on Aug. 19 in Brooklyn’s Crown Heights neighborhood. Masked, fist-clenched agitators belonging to the anarchist collective turned up to sow chaos — but locals banded together to confront the troublemakers, telling them to get lost... Experts who track domestic terrorism and extremist movements aren’t surprised: Once the face of a grassroots leftwing insurgency, Antifa has lost its spark... But experts warn that could be a dangerous thing, as the vacuum has given way to even more fringe and violent...

After backlash from both the right and left, and even advice from President Trump following the recent decision to change its logo, Cracker Barrel announced Tuesday evening that it would keep Uncle Herschel along with the barrel, rather than move forward with the minimalist design that was unveiled last week. While it’s a good sign that the restaurant chain listened to customers, those on the right aren’t entirely satisfied. Responding to Cracker Barrel's post on X announcing the latest decision, activist Robby Starbuck, who's made bringing normalcy back to corporate America his mission, wondered if they have any plans to...

While in college back in the mid-1970s, I wrote a short story on AI. I give a little background on the early mini-computers I operated with a photo of the Honeywell H200 I took. I don't have the original short story anymore but I wrote a pretty good summary highligting the major theme. Essentially, a computer operator was given the opportunity to train a computer as it discovers the world and asks questions.

Prophetess Katie Souza’s bio says she was a “career criminal most of her life,” being “convicted of a number of felonies and sent to federal prison to serve almost twelve years” before God saved her nearly twenty years ago. In reality, it should read that she’s still a career criminal, with her crimes no longer being drug possession and gun running, but rather a criminal mishandling of God’s word- certainly a theological felony- demonstrating that the grift never ended. After leaving prison, she wrote a bunch of books and founded Katie Souza Ministries. She now hosts the TV show ‘Healing...

On Monday August 25, 2025 The New York Times published a lengthy piece entitled,“How China Influences Elections in America’s Biggest City” with the subtitle: “The Chinese consulate in Manhattan has mobilized community groups to defeat candidates who don’t fall in line with the authoritarian state.”Though it’s ostensibly a story just on New York City, the reporting is not confined to matters there. Both a Democrat U.S. congresswoman on a sensitive committee and New York’s Democrat Governor get a looking-at. And while Governor Hochul may not be your governor or mine, she clearly has a seat of national influence, and at...
