It’s no coincidence after his meeting with reps from the Middle East.He didn’t say why, but I think I know. Christine Douglass-Williams wrote about the latest from the mercurial president here, and here is more: “Trump: I will not allow Israel to annex Judea and Samaria,” by Elad Benari, Israel National News, September 25, 2025:US President Donald Trump stressed in a conversation with reporters on Thursday that he will “not allow” Israel to apply sovereignty over Judea and Samaria.“I will not allow Israel to annex the West Bank. No, I will not allow it. It’s not going to happen,” Trump...

Some two weeks before the 2nd anniversary of October 7, the UN, the UK, France, Australia, Canada and other failed radical governments rallied to commemorate the massacres, kidnappings and rapes by giving the Islamic terrorists responsible for it their own ‘state’. Along with a High Holidays gift to the Jews celebrating their new year. The invention of a ‘Palestinian’ state is the capstone to the Big Lie that this is a war between Israel and some smaller population in Gaza or the West Bank rather than a regional conflict between Muslims and Jews, as part of a global conflict between...

Trump and Netanyahu bring truth to the globalist hall of lies.President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu delivered stern but much-needed addresses to the United Nations General Assembly during this year’s annual General Assembly High-Level Week. Both leaders presented stark truths rather than the platitudes and strident rhetoric that normally permeates the General Assembly Hall. President Trump asked the fundamental question about the UN today. What is its purpose? “The UN has such tremendous potential,” he said. “All they seem to do is write a really strongly worded letter, and then never follow that letter up. It’s empty words...

The Biden administration refused to do it.I was on the scene at the assault on the Adas Torah synagogue in Los Angeles by Islamists and leftists during which local authorities chose to do nothing. Just as they’d done nothing during the UCLA riots and the previous assault on a Holocaust museum screening an Oct 7 documentary. Afterwards there were high-profile condemnations, but no actions, and the perpetrators got a pass even though the FACE Act specifically criminalizes blocking access to houses of worship. The Biden admin, like most administrations, ignored the ‘houses of worship’ provision and focused only on using...

By praising cousin marriage, the National Health Service is repudiating Britain’s Christian past in favor of its unassimilated Muslims.A recent news article about Britain’s National Health Service managed, in a few lines, to capture just how dire the situation is in that country and how divorced from reality its political leadership has become. The article was about guidance the NHS published recently, “extolling the benefits of first-cousin marriage despite the increased risk of birth defects.” Defying both modern science and the traditions of western civilization, the NHS England’s Genomics Education Programme seemed to endorse incest, saying first-cousin marriage is linked...

Associate Justice Clarence Thomas has often served as critical voice of reason on the U.S. Supreme Court. So, it wasn’t a surprise when he delivered a much-needed dose of reality about the high court’s constitutional role during a rare public appearance late last week. Speaking at the Catholic University Law School, the current court’s longest-serving member reportedly discussed the Supreme Court’s overturning of longstanding precedents in several of its recent decisions. He specifically tackled the subject of stare decisis, arguing that the high court should not blindly follow past precedents without considering whether those decisions adhere to the Constitution.“At some...

Democrats have once again decided it’s a good time to pick a losing fight because the party’s ridiculous, anti-American base can’t see anything through to its logical end. In this case it’s pushing for a federal government shutdown, a scenario in which Democrats have no good options, but they’re ready to pick the worst one if it means “fighting” for the sake of it. Just as Democrats have done on virtually every other major issue — crime, immigration, bureaucratic waste — they’re positioning themselves to do the most counterproductive thing possible. Rather than vote with Republicans to keep government funding...

Democrats are protesting Des Moines Superintendent Ian Roberts’ arrest by ICE because he indicts the entire public school system they control.State officials revoked the license of the superintendent of Iowa’s largest school district Monday after U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested Ian Roberts Friday on a deportation order and weapons charges. On Saturday, the Des Moines school board placed Roberts on paid administrative leave while protesters demand his release.ICE says Roberts is not only an illegal alien from Guyana who was working illegally, but also that he fled arrest in a school district-owned car and was in illegal possession of...

The president of Florida A&M University on Saturday said the historically Black college ("HBCU") was taking “immediate steps to ensure accountability” after its band announcer commented on the weight of Alabama State University’s Honey Beez dancers. During half-time of the game between the two schools, Florida A&M band announcer Joe Bullard called the dance team that performs with Alabama State’s Mighty Marching Hornets as “the new face of Ozempic,” HBCU Gameday reported. Dr. Quinton Ross, the president of Alabama State University, called the remark “distasteful” and “short-sighted.” “To have their artistry disrespected after such a performance is absolutely unacceptable,” Ross...

Five years after the doors of Circle of Hope Girls Ranch in Humansville, Missouri, were closed, its owner Stephanie Householder pleaded guilty to abuse charges against the girls in her care, according to KRCG. Earlier this month, Householder received a sentence of 120 days in prison, to be served concurrently, for the child abuse charges, but was given credit for time served. She was sentenced to five years of probation for charges of endangering the welfare of a child. If she violates the terms of her probation, Householder will have to serve eight years in prison. Her trial was set...

At today's Senate Homeland Security Committee hearing, Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) detailed the "weaponization" of the TSA's Quiet Skies Program against now-DNI Tulsi Gabbard.

A frequent reaction when understanding the revelations of the Obama Surveillance System is: “WOW! If only 1/2 of this is true, why haven’t heads rolled?“This is a very common response.The problem that few understand and even fewer accept, is that this is not a partisan issue. Every element within the DC system is a stakeholder in maintaining the status of corruption; that includes every republican and every democrat, every leftist, moderate, liberal, libertarian and every conservative.The entire DC system including the RNC and DNC are aligned to retain and expand the surveillance state, including popular and well-known names like Devin...

Loreto Ricardo Hernandez is one of six farmworkers who was killed in the DUI crash on Pope Valley Road in Napa County earlier this month, as the group he was with traveled from Stockton. ABC7 News previously spoke with his family, who is still waiting for the first step towards justice. The driver of the crash survived, and at last check was still in the hospital. ABC7 News is not naming the driver as he has not yet appeared in court. Now, an ICE spokesperson has issued a statement referring to the driver suspected of DUI and, in turn, facing...

Don Lemon decided to share some truly gross comments about white men and violence. There's no question people need to dial things back. A great place to start would be with rhetoric. Instead of painting entire groups of people as evil, fascist and a threat to society, we should speak with some common sense. Instead of broad generalizations, we should be specific. Well, that is unless you're Don Lemon. Then you're just going to let it fly. For some unknown reason, Lemon thought it was a good idea to get on camera and straight up lie about race and violent...

Justice Department officials filed a civil complaint Monday against protesters and advocacy organizations who they allege threatened and intimidated Jewish worshipers outside a synagogue in West Orange, New Jersey, in November. The lawsuit was brought under the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act, or Face Act, which has historically been used to charge people who block access to abortion clinics. Harmeet K. Dhillon, the head of the Justice Department’s civil rights division, criticized the Biden administration’s use of the federal law and said she was invoking a provision that prevents people from using force or intimidation to interfere with...

The White House has released a 20-point document titled “President Donald J. Trump’s Comprehensive Plan to End the Gaza Conflict.” It would install a transitional governance structure under a “Board of Peace,” chaired by Trump, with figures such as former U.K. Prime Minister Tony Blair expected to participate.The plan posted on social media opens with promises:Gaza will be a deradicalized terror-free zone that does not pose a threat to its neighbors.Gaza will be redeveloped for the benefit of the people of Gaza, who have suffered more than enough.It then outlines ceasefire terms, staged withdrawals, prisoner exchanges, and international administration.Yet the...

Luxury beliefs benefit the rich but they are lethal for everyone elseJ.K. Rowling has broken her silence on Emma Watson, the star of the movie versions of her Harry Potter fantasy novels. And if I was Ms. Watson I would lie low for a few months. In fact I would go full hibernation and spend the rest of winter in some far-flung cottage sans internet. For Rowling’s critique of Watson and her lazy, luxury beliefs is devastating. It is one of the truest and most cutting takedowns of the blissful ignorance of moneyed moral poseurs I have ever read. Watson...

The false prophet who predicted that the Rapture would take place earlier this week is now claiming that his original dates were correct, and has doubled down with a convoluted new timeline. Three months ago, Joshua Mhlakela—a “believer” from South Africa who claimed to have once been a pastor—came out of nowhere and began claiming that Jesus came to him in a dream in 2018 and told him: “On the 23rd and the 24th of September, 2025, I will come to take my church.” His predictions picked up steam, with #RaptureTok trending on TikTok, and videos about it doing brisk...

Over 100,000 federal employees are expected to resign imminently under the Trump administration’s sweeping “deferred resignation” program. This mass exodus is essential to finally draining the swamp and reasserting presidential control over a bloated, unaccountable federal machine. Late last week, the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) reportedly circulated internal guidance to agencies, warning them to prepare for waves of deferred resignations and reductions in force should Congress fail to approve full appropriations, according to the New York Post. Agencies were told to begin drafting Separation and Reduction in Force (RIF) plans targeting nonessential positions. On January 28, 2025, the Office...
