The Heritage Foundation’s Halloween fiasco revealed less about antisemitism on the right than about the establishment’s renewed war on Trump’s populist movement.Is there anything left to say about the Heritage Foundation’s pre-Halloween melodrama? It was quite a scary show. I am confident that when Kevin Roberts, president of that venerable bastion of conservatism, got outside his morning egg on October 30, he had no inkling that his two-minute and thirty-nine-second video clip would precipitate a seismic detonation that would rock the foundation and monopolize the news cycle for days.The main purpose of the video, Roberts said, was to reaffirm that...

A total of 503 migrants crossed the English Channel in one day as the Government considers a major shake-up of the country’s immigration rules. The latest arrivals came in seven small boats on Saturday, with more vessels making the crossing from France on Sunday.

In a marathon Game 7 of the 2025 World Series at the Rogers Centre, the Toronto Blue Jays fell to the Los Angeles Dodgers in 11 innings. It was a devastating finish to a series defined by unforgettable plays. The series left fans with indelible memories of hits, runs and near-misses — unbelievable and inexplicable moments that few will forget in the years to come. But that wasn’t all the stood out. From chants for Vladdy — first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. — to calls for a “Springer Dinger” from designated hitter George Springer, fans also witnessed something deeper: the...

Zohran Mamdani, a self-described democratic socialist, has been elected mayor of New York City. More than one million New Yorkers — 50.4% of the electorate — cast their ballots for a guy who promises government-run grocery stores, free buses, a rent-freeze, diminishing the role of police in fighting crime, higher taxes on the wealthy and a vastly expanded government sector.Some of his best numbers came from the gentrified or gentrifying neighborhoods of Brooklyn. Prospect Heights, East Williamsburg and Bushwick gave him more than 80% of their votes.These areas are now associated more with oat-milk lattes than organized labor. That’s led...

Barstool Sports President Dave Portnoy said in an interview with "CBS Sunday Morning" that he's experiencing daily antisemitism — a shift, he said, from the occasional hateful comments that he used to get. "It's every day now. Like, there's a definitive shift in what's going on," Portnoy told Tony Dokoupil in an interview that will air next Sunday. On Friday, Portnoy was recording a "One Bite" pizza review in Mississippi when someone yelled an antisemitic comment at him. His interview with Dokoupil was taped before the incident, but their conversation touched on a recent rise in hateful comments. Portnoy said...

The world of wealth is constantly evolving, with fortunes rising and falling as markets shift and industries innovate. As of November 2025, the wealthiest individuals are predominantly technology pioneers and influential business magnates who have built vast fortunes through innovation, strategic investments, and entrepreneurial vision. Leading the pack is Elon Musk, whose ventures in electric vehicles, space exploration, artificial intelligence, and social media have propelled him to the top of the global wealth rankings. Musk is now on track to become the world’s first trillionaire, following a landmark Tesla pay package. These billionaires exemplify how ambition, technological innovation, and calculated...

Zohran Mamdani won his race to become the next mayor of New York City on Tuesday. On Thursday the NY Times published a story explaining just how expensive his plans for the city will be. Let's start with free child care:The biggest plan, by far, is free universal child care. The city already offers free preschool for all 4-year-olds and many 3-year-olds. Expanding child care to infants and to toddlers under 3 would be a major challenge. Mr. Mamdani’s administration would have to create new day care facilities and hire scores of child care workers.Mr. Mamdani’s campaign estimated that this...

There's probably no better indicator of Gavin Newsom running for president than his sudden interest in promoting what he calls 'God's will.'Here's his repulsive media interview with Jake Tapper:Gavin Newsom takes a moment away from doing nothing about the 187,084 human beings suffering on the sidewalks of California and sleeping with his campaign manager’s wife to lecture President Trump on “God’s will” pic.twitter.com/aODh3XDn1m — Kevin Dalton (@TheKevinDalton) November 9, 2025A multiple-married serial adulterer, a pro-abortion extremist, and an associate of every kind of anti-Catholic activist, he's been a fallen-away Catholic for years.Now he's got religion.

Line forms to the left, ladies. Former NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio is back on the market after an alleged affair with an out-of-state elected official put the brakes on his 10-month relationship with progressive activist Nomiki Konst, two sources tell The Post. The couple went public with their courtship in February with de Blasio, 64, saying at the time he and Konst, 41, were “kindred souls” who had known each other for a long time. But 10 months later and the erstwhile happy couple is no more, with sources saying the former “The Young Turks” investigative reporter and Bernie...

The government shutdown is reportedly on the verge of coming to an end, but California Governor Gavin Newsom isn’t happy with the terms, which he shared on X. In a post that went up on Sunday, Newsom reacted to the government shutdown possibly coming to an end, writing: “Pathetic. This isn’t a deal. It’s a surrender. Don’t bend the knee!” The post has received 423K views, 13K likes, 2.2K re-shares, and 519 comments. At first glance, the government shutdown coming to an end would seem like a good thing, but according to Newson, Democrats should hold out. And based on...

Thanks to the good work of Blaze Media’s Steve Baker, we now have a plausible suspect in the January 6 pipe bomb plot, a former Capitol Police officer and reportedly a current CIA associate by the name of Shaun Rae Kerkhoff.“While nothing is 100% certain and everyone is innocent until proven guilty,” Baker posted on X, “gait recognition software identified a 94% match. Video proximity tracking and human analysis by federal intel sources take it to what I’m told is a 96-98% certainty.”For all the reporting on Baker’s discovery—and it’s important to note that Kerkhoff has not been charged nor...

A Washington congresswoman is pointing the finger at daylight saving time for her son’s recent mishap in which he incurred a bad bloody nose, using the incident as a springboard to do away with the semiannual changing of the clocks altogether. “My kid just got his first gusher bloody nose. Thank you Daylight Savings Time for this annual rug pull,” Democratic Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, 37, perplexingly wrote on X and Facebook Sunday. “And it’s not just about tired kids bumping into s–t – research shows car and other accidents spike in the days and weeks following the time change,”...

Moved almost to tears, three of US President Donald Trump’s closest confidants stood together…on the stage at Hostages Square – a central Tel Aviv plaza that, since the October 7, 2023 Hamas massacre, has become the beating heart of weekly demonstrations calling for the release of Israelis still held captive in Gaza and, increasingly, for an end to the war. It was Witkoff’s third visit to Hostages Square in less than a year, and that compares with not a single visit by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu or most of his ministers. The hostages’ families have described many times their connection...

Diplo is poking fun at his viral joke that he dated both Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau. The DJ shared a selfie with the former Prime Minister of Canada on Monday, cheekily captioning the photo with Perry song title, “The one that got away.” In the selfie, Diplo and Trudeau both make comically shocked faces. Diplo’s famous friends were amused by the post. Paris Hilton commented with a crying laughing emoji while Ryan Tedder wrote, “Damn.”

Power will be cut for between eight and 16 hours across most regions of Ukraine on Sunday, state transmission system operator Ukrenergo has said, after Russian attacks targeting energy infrastructure reduced the country’s generating capacity to “zero”.Moscow, which has escalated attacks on Ukraine’s infrastructure in recent months, launched hundreds of drones at energy facilities across the country from Friday into Saturday, which killed at least seven people, according to Ukrainian officials.The Russian attacks have disrupted electricity, heat and water supplies in several Ukrainian cities, with state power firm Centerenergo warning generating capacity “is down to zero”.While the situation had somewhat...

https://babylonbee.com/news/man-converts-to-7th-day-adventism-so-he-can-watch-nfl-all-sunday-long FRESNO, CA — Local man Dennis Townsend has converted to Seventh Day Adventism in order to spend all Sunday sitting on the couch watching NFL games. Long frustrated by missing the early slate of games for church, Townsend could hardly believe his luck when he learned of a group that only has church on Saturday. "You mean, you never have church on Sunday? Like, you never once miss kick-off?" asked Townsend. "Well, I'm convinced. The evidence for Seventh Day Adventism is just overwhelming, and I literally have no choice but to convert." Townsend states that his religious conversion has...
