The chairman of the new House subcommittee aimed at uncovering the truth behind the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C., says his panel is concerned about the dozens of paid, federal informants present during the demonstrations, and is concerned that the intelligence they gathered was not properly shared with law enforcement. “One thing that we have learned, and this came on the tail end of the Biden administration, when their Department of Justice admitted that they had many, I mean, more than two dozen, paid informants embedded in the crowd,” Rep. Barry Loudermilk, R-Ga., told the...

The partially taxpayer-funded Ivanpah Solar Power Facility in California’s Mojave Desert is set to shut down in 2026 due to inefficiency in generating solar energy, according to the New York Post. The $2.2 billion plant, which features three 459-foot towers, was greenlit in 2010 and completed in 2014. According to the New York Post the closure stems from the site being “outpaced by solar photovoltaic technology” and proving both inefficient and costly. The shutter of the site comes more than a decade ahead of its original 2039 end date, according to the Associated Press. Speculation about Ivanpah’s early closure began...

The home secretary has ordered an urgent review into the use and cost of taxis to transfer asylum seekers from their hotels to appointments. The move by Shabana Mahmood follows a BBC investigation that found some migrants having to travel long distances on journeys costing hundreds of pounds.

Would-be Trump assassin Ryan Routh was declared guilty on Tuesday on all charges, but The New York Times accidentally published the wrong article. In journalism, outlets often pre-write obituaries, election outcomes and potential court verdicts of major cases before they occur, using the basic facts of the story and adding whatever key details are essential on the day of. However, a screenshot indicated that the New York Times accidentally published a headline, “Man Found Not Guilty of Trying to Assassinate Trump in Florida.” The lede of the now-scrubbed article added, “In a surprise verdict, a federal jury acquitted Ryan Routh...

The transgender live-in boyfriend of Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin appears to have fled their cozy Utah townhouse, leaving mail piling up outside — as he faces mounting criticism for not turning the accused killer in after he confessed to the hateful slaying in a string of text messages. Lance Twiggs, 22, who has reportedly been cooperating with authorities since his partner, Tyler Robinson, 22, allegedly shot the Turning Point USA founder dead during a speaking event on Sept. 10, has disappeared, neighbors in St. George, Utah, told The Post Tuesday. Mail was spotted piling up outside the $1,800-per-month townhouse the...

This is too hilarious to be true. But apparently it is, and it couldn't be more entertaining, wondering how it's going to play out. You know, the part where indulged, hedonistic, virtue-signaling, bubble-wrapped Westerners run straight into that ugly brick wall known as 'third world cultures' on their territory, not in the safe laboratory of a London or San Francisco street protest. Their first big mistake of the Global Sumud Flotilla (GSF), a multinational convoy of several dozen vessels seeking to breach Israel’s naval blockade of Gaza, was picking St Scowly Pants to lead the repeated watery charge into Gaza....

I saw this a couple of days ago, and it was so intriguing, I had to hang on to it, figuring there would be a time it would come in handy.Little did I know our president would go into the United Nations General Assembly today with a flamethrower and give me the perfect opportunity to illustrate one of the scorched remnants of European superiority he left smoking on the expensive carpet in that room.When the man told them that their countries were going to fail.IF YOU DON'T GET AWAY FROM THE GREEN ENERGY SCAM, YOUR COUNTRY IS GOING TO FAILIF...

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is setting the record straight after NBC News attempted to once again smear ICE as the agency continues its work enforcing our immigration laws. Earlier today, NBC News reported that ICE used a five-year-old autistic girl as "bait" to capture her illegal immigrant father. ICE agents held a 5-year-old autistic girl outside her Massachusetts home to pressure her father to surrender to authorities last week, according to the girl's family. https://t.co/bJrhpL1xeI— NBC News (@NBCNews) September 23, 2025Here's more:Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents held a 5-year-old autistic girl outside her Massachusetts home to pressure her...

“The Trump Administration does not believe popping more pills is always the answer for better health. There is mounting evidence finding a connection between acetaminophen use during pregnancy and autism — and that’s why the Administration is courageously issuing this new health guidance. Additionally, the Trump Administration is approving a new treatment option that has been found to improve some autism symptoms. President Trump pledged to address America’s skyrocketing rates of autism, and his team is deploying Gold Standard Science to deliver on this pledge. We will not be deterred in these efforts as we know millions across America are...

Secretary of State Marco Rubio is in New York for the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) this week, but on Tuesday morning, he took some time out to make the morning show rounds on several networks. He didn't shy away from promoting the Donald Trump administration's "America First" policies.AdvertisementOn ABC, George Stephanopoulos seemed obsessed with cuts to foreign aid, claiming they've led to deaths around the world. Rubio wasn't willing to play along with that tired narrative that I thought the left finally gave up on months ago. As the secretary has pointed out numerous times, USAID was a "dysfunctional...

We utterly reject the notion that it’s “cancel culture” to seek the termination of public employees who post murderous political rants on social media. When you’re employed by a public institution like a university, a public school, a fire department, a police force or some other government agency, your job carries with it a responsibility to serve the public. And when you make a public display of abject hatred toward large swaths of the public you have a responsibility to serve, you certainly aren’t meeting that responsibility. Which seems to be the case with respect to Lauren Nash, who is...

National leaders proclaiming the gospel in a moment of intense tragedy and turmoil is exactly what the nation needs.At the memorial for Charlie Kirk on Sunday, some of the highest-ranking members of the federal government boldly proclaimed the gospel message of human sin and salvation through Christ. It was a powerful moment, and one of many in which Kirk’s death was used to share the same Christianity he constantly preached on college campuses.The moment was a rebuke to the persistent idea of some Christians that citizenship in a heavenly kingdom means we should avoid using earthly political avenues to advance...
