  • Obama Presidential Center slammed for promoting ‘far-left' agenda on public land

    The Illinois Republican Party has blasted as "divisive" the hiring language the Obama Foundation is using for the Obama Presidential Center, arguing it shows the privately run project is using public land to advance a political agenda. The Obama Foundation, which is developing the hotly debated center on Chicago’s South Side, recently advertised roughly 150 jobs at the facility, stating that successful applicants are expected to align with the foundation’s "anti-racism" goals. "It’s an Illinois Democrat tradition to insert divisive, far-left policies into the lives of everyday Americans and to balk at the rule of law," Illinois Republican Party Chair...

    Anti-ICE activists have begun distributing tire-deflating devices and instructions to their fellow agitators in Minneapolis in hopes of hindering immigration enforcement operations in the city, a local politician revealed. The devices are 3D printed “tire-drainers” and were distributed in a neighborhood near the University of Minnesota with attached instructions and a link to the design file. The package recovered by Jerry Munson, a former state representative, held five such devices. The flyer attached to the package read: “See an ICE vehicle left unattended? Protect your community by draining their tires!” “1. Get a spotter to watch your back,” the flyer...
  • State-funded game warns kids they’ll be flagged as terrorists for researching immigration stats or protesting erosion of British values

    In a chilling move, the UK government has rolled out a taxpayer-funded video game that paints every curious teenager as a potential far-right extremist. The “Pathways” game, backed by the Home Office’s Prevent counter-terrorism program, threatens young players with referrals to anti-terror experts simply for questioning unchecked mass migration or engaging with online debates about British identity. This indoctrination tool assumes teens are one wrong click away from radicalisation, equating basic concerns over job competition or veteran housing with illegal hate groups. It’s a blatant assault on free thought, designed to stifle dissent and enforce globalist narratives in schools—exposing the...

    Five hundred people in a small Canadian province were diagnosed with a mystery brain disease. What would it mean for the patients if the disease was never real? In early 2019, officials at a hospital in the small Canadian province of New Brunswick noticed that two patients had contracted an extremely rare brain condition known as Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease, or CJD. CJD is both fatal and potentially contagious, so a group of experts was quickly assembled to investigate. Fortunately for New Brunswick, the disease didn't spread. But the story didn't end there. In fact, it was just beginning. Among the experts...

    A Tennessee mom was forced to have her leg amputated after her pitbull savagely locked its jaws around the limb, leaving it “hanging on by a thread” as she tried to break up a dogfight inside her home. Amanda Mears, 42, was preparing to take her mixed American Pit Bull-American Staffordshire, named Dennis, out for a walk when the dog lunged at Ralphie, an American Bully, after he escaped from a bedroom where he had been kept inside her Murfreesboro home... “When he charged at my other dog, Ralphie, I got in between them, and that’s when Dennis latched on...

  • We’re in a Slow-Rolling Civil War, President Trump Needs to Recognize It

    As a general rule, I don’t want to see people hit by cars. At least, I used to not want to. And, I suppose, I still don’t, but I wouldn’t mind Democrats, in and out of the media, ALMOST hit by a car so they can experience that immediate fear that comes when it happens. Then they can lecture me about what the ICE officer who was actually hit by Renee Good should have done instead of defending himself from the idiot leftist who was either trying to kill him or so stupid that she’d put herself into a position...

    POLK COUNTY, Fla. - A Florida man landed behind bars after Polk County deputies say he had a gun hidden under prosthetic silicone breasts while he was trespassing at a construction site. According to Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd, Matthew Zaccarino, 39, of Altamonte Springs, was sitting in a vehicle by himself at a construction site last month. When deputies approached him, they said he was wearing a red, lace bra with prosthetic silicone breasts. "Then, we notice he is wearing a G-string, showing off the boys.

    Sarah felt she had little left to lose. A 50-year-old entrepreneur in Tehran, she watched as prices soared higher while her freedoms shrank each year. So, when protesters started gathering in the high-end Andarzgoo neighbourhood of Tehran on Saturday night, she was quick to join them. In a video sent to the Guardian via her cousin who lives abroad, people walk through the street, joyous, despite a halo of teargas hanging over their heads. The crowd was mixed, with families, elderly people and men walking side by side. The mood was calm, until security forces approached, raised their assault rifles...
