    As Hollywood still grapples with the tragic murder of famed director Rob Reiner and his wife, more tragic news broke early Monday. According to Deadline, actress Rachael Carpani’s family revealed that she had passed away “unexpectedly” at just 45. Her family confirmed in an Instagram post that Carpani passed away following a battle with a “chronic illness.” “It is with great sadness that Tony and Gael Carpani announce that their beautiful daughter, beloved Australian actress Rachael Carpani, unexpectedly but peacefully passed away after a long battle with chronic illness, in the early hours of Sunday 7th December,” the late Sunday...

    The Trump administration’s aggressive deportation policies have heightened stress among the country’s approximately 14 million immigrants who are living in the U.S. without legal authorization. The sharp rise in dramatic arrests and deportations of immigrants over the past year has received widespread media attention. A less publicized issue is that many young, undocumented immigrants are also finding it harder to apply to and stay in college. As someone who researches teacher training and was a high school teacher in South Carolina, I have researched how restrictive education policies make it harder for immigrant students, particularly undocumented students, to receive a...
  • Hundreds of pubs ban Starmer, Reeves and all Labour MPs after 'cruel' tax grab

    More than 200 enraged pub owners are banning Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and his MPs from their businesses in protest at increased business rates which they say threaten their survival. Hundreds of businesses have signed up to the Taxed Out campaign where boozers will bar Labour MPs from entering their premises. This comes after Rachel Reeves announced that nearly 5,000 small pubs will soon pay huge business rates for the first time as the rateable values of premises are set to increase. Temporary rates relief will also be replaced with a less favourable system, meaning that a standard British...

    Amazing things are happening in Latin America. We have Javier Milei in Argentina, Nayib Bukele in El Salvador, and now José Antonio Kast in Chile, who just beat Communist Party candidate Jeannette Jara with 58% of the vote. The dude is a devout conservative Christian and father of nine: Kast ran mainly on a platform of cracking down on crime and mass immigration, and celebrations in the streets began as his victory was announced.

    NASA ^ | 15 Dec, 2025 | Image Credit & Copyright: Tomáš Slovinský
    Explanation: Where are all of these meteors coming from? In terms of direction on the sky, the pointed answer is the constellation of Gemini. That is why the major meteor shower in December is known as the Geminids -- because shower meteors all appear to come from a radiant toward Gemini. Three dimensionally, however, sand-sized debris expelled from the unusual asteroid 3200 Phaethon follows a well-defined orbit about our Sun, and the part of the orbit that approaches Earth is superposed in front of the constellation of Gemini. Therefore, when Earth crosses this orbit, the radiant point of falling debris...

    In one of the last remaining cities under Ukrainian control in the country's eastern Donetsk region, once a powerhouse of industry, life gets more difficult — and dangerous — as Russian forces inch closer. Over the last month, local officials in Kramatorsk have reported dozens of Russian attacks on the city using strike drones, ballistic missiles, rockets and aerial bombs. Homes, gas stations and markets have all been hit, as has a nearby power plant, causing blackouts. "There was a recent strike on the house next to mine," said Olena Frolova, 20, who works in a shop that sells Donetsk-branded...

  • Trump’s Felon Label Was Loud, But It May Not Last

    Over the past year, the phrase “convicted felon” became political manna for the left. Since President Donald Trump's "conviction" on 34 felony counts, lefties have transformed the phrase into a permanent stamp on his political soul. Trump’s opponents spoke as if the law had reached its final destination, a confidence that now looks premature. Courts, constitutional limits, and shifting legal ground suggest the stamped label may not last much longer. The 34-count felony conviction in New York was tied to falsifying business records related to a hush-money payment. The sentence brought no jail time, no fine, and no probation, only...

    Netflix’s pending takeover of Warner Bros. Discovery’s Streaming & Studios division is ominous, given that this could provide a near-monopoly in video entertainment to a company that stands out as aggressively left-wing even in a field overwhelmingly dominated by degenerate moonbats. For an idea of what Netflix has been ramming down viewers’ throats, consider its upcoming film Queen of Coal, featuring a transgender coal miner. From Fox News: The description for the film reads, “A trans woman dreams of working the coal mines — but in a town steeped in superstition and patriarchy, Carlita must fight to earn her [sic]...

    A federal appeals court on Monday took Judge Boasberg to task and delayed his contempt hearings until 2026. In March Boasberg granted a temporary restraining order (TRO) to stop the Trump administration from deporting thousands of Venezuelan nationals believed to be members of Tren de Aragua (TdA) gang under the Alien Enemies Act. Boasberg then threatened to hold Trump officials in contempt for not bringing some of the world’s most vicious killers, criminals, and rapists back to the United States. Judge Boasberg said he found probable cause to hold the Trump Administration in criminal contempt of court for defying his...
  • JUST IN: Trump Signs Executive Order to Designate Fentanyl as a Weapon of Mass Destruction as Offensive Against Venezuelan Narcotraffickers Escalates (VIDEO)

    Gateway Pundit ^ | December 15, 2025 | Jordan Conradson
    President Trump on Monday signed an executive order designating fentanyl as a Weapon of Mass Destruction (WMD). Last month, it was reported by the Wall Street Journal that the Trump Administration classified fentanyl as a “potential chemical weapons threat” being smuggled on Venezuelan drug boats to justify strikes in the Caribbean and Western Pacific. Now, with Trump’s new classification of the deadly poison as a WMD, this will likely be used to justify the defense of America against drug cartels further. “The manufacture and distribution of fentanyl, primarily performed by organized criminal networks, threatens our national security and fuels lawlessness...

    Just four years after it was launched, the Ford Motor Company has pulled the plug on its electric F-150 Lightning truck. The company instead will reportedly be focusing on hybrid vehicles and a future lineup of smaller and more affordable electric vehicles. In a call with reporters on Monday, Andrew Frick, the president of Ford Blue and Ford Model E, the company's commercial and electric divisions, said, "The American consumer is speaking clearly and they want the benefits of electrification like instant torque and mobile power. But they also demand affordability … rather than spending billions more on large EVs...

    The second hero seen throwing items at one of the Bondi gunmen as Ahmed Al Ahmed wrestled the gun from his hands has been identified as 62-year-old Reuven Morrison. Mr Morrison, a Jewish man and member of the Chabad Synagogue, ran toward the danger on Sunday evening as Sajid Akram fired across Archer Park, throwing bricks at him in an attempt to stop the killings. Dressed in a white t-shirt, he is the hero seen alongside Ahmed Al Ahmed in viral videos of the attack. Mr Morrison’s family said he ran in to help Mr Ahmed after the gun jammed...

    A few weeks ago, I gave the Republican Party some unsolicited advice about what they should do if they want to get back into the saddle and start winning elections again after this year’s string of off-season/special election losses. Essentially it boiled down to using power to fight the Democrats while giving your own client base the things that it wants. In other words, what people throughout history, in every era, in every type of political system from the most despotic to the most egalitarian, would recognise as basic political acumen. The Democrats, despite their complete disconnection from several basic...

    President Donald Trump doubled down on a statement he issued on social media in response to actor-director Rob Reiner’s death, pointing out that he “wasn’t a fan of his at all.”While taking questions from the press on Monday, Trump was asked about a Truth Social post he made in which he stated Reiner had a “crippling disease known as TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME.” Trump’s post came after the news broke that Reiner — who directed The Princess Bride, and When Harry Met Sally, and his wife, Michele, were found dead inside their Brentwood home.“Mr. President, a number of Republicans have denounced...
