"Donald Trump is an arrogant man who will be overthrown, and is attacking the Islamic Nation, Persian piped in "sieg heil" in Farsi. It's a short. There are subtitles.

Iran's Candidate: This is how Tehran seeks to shape the new Hamas leadership. Iran supports Khalil al-Hayya as a candidate for head of Hamas' political bureau due to his close ties with the military wing and the resistance axis, and its assessment is that he ensures continuity of the military line without internal division. Summary. The upcoming internal elections in Hamas for the position of chairman of the political bureau are taking place at a particularly sensitive time, against the backdrop of the war in the Gaza Strip, the fragile ceasefire, and the increasing involvement of regional players in the...

‘I accept Jesus Christ as my lord and savior, and I look forward to spending an eternity with him,’ Adams declared in the message, adding that he hoped he was ‘still qualified for entry’ into heaven upon his death. Scott Adams, the creator of the long-running Dilbert comic strip whose art satirized the typical American workplace, died on Jan. 13 at 68 years old after a battle with cancer. “I accept Jesus Christ as my lord and savior, and I look forward to spending an eternity with him,” Adams declared in the message, adding that he hoped he was “still...

Social media users have found yet another goth girl to obsess over, but this one is just a little more problematic than the usual fare. Her name is Amelia, and she's an antagonist in the educational, U.K. government-funded anti-extremist video game Pathways. So, why have far-right communities on social media decided to embrace Amelia as a symbol of anti-immigration? Here's what you need to know.

Boy, nothing will give you an absolute case of the morbs regarding average American educational standards quite like posting a couple of mildly controversial essays, and then catching emails, comments, and drive-by social media’ing. Good lord. “Ian! Why should American give a toss about what happens in a foreign country!” Seriously?1 The mullahs in Tehran have directly — albeit through proxies — been killing Americans since 1980. Lest anyone think that their slogan, “Death to America!” is hyperbole, they have influenced — if not outright funded — terror attacks on U.S. soil. They intentionally and knowingly attempt to goad the...

A leftist activist who regularly refers to Republicans and supporters of President Donald Trump as pedophiles is facing felony and misdemeanor charges after authorities say he spent months communicating with someone he believed was an 11-year-old girl and then traveled to Bremerton, Washington, to meet her for sex. Kitsap County prosecutors charged Houston Curry Wade, 44, a former part-time faculty member teaching Physics and Astronomy at Edmonds College, with Attempted Child Molestation in the First Degree and Communication With a Minor for Immoral Purposes. According to the Lynnwood Times, Wade is a well-known leftist activist with the online handle of...

A solid majority of Americans support military intervention in Venezuela — including an eye-popping 66% of Hispanics — when informed that it’s a hub of narcoterrorism with ties to Iran and Hezbollah, a new poll claimed. The Morning Consult survey conducted for the pro-US energy Council for Secure America asked 2,202 Americans on Jan. 10-11: “As you may know, Venezuela is a known hub for Iranian and Hezbollah terror, including military drone production and narcoterrorism. Does this make you more or less likely to support American intervention in Venezuela?” Sixty percent of respondents said they were more likely to support...

Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry signed extradition paperwork Tuesday to seek the prosecution of a California abortionist accused of illegally shipping abortion pills into the state. Landry is vowing to hold accountable those who undermine Louisiana’s pro-life laws and endanger women and unborn children. “I am signing the extradition paperwork to bring this California doctor to justice,” Landry posted on X, formerly known as Twitter. “Louisiana has a zero tolerance policy for those who subvert our laws, seek to hurt women, and promote abortion.” The Republican governor added: “I know Gavin Newsom supports abortion in all its forms, but that doesn’t...

Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., is facing backlash from critics for encouraging violence after two separate shootings involving federal immigration agents in Portland and Minneapolis last week. Critics have pointed to comments Omar made in a cable television interview accusing ICE of murder and other things she said this weekend while protesting in Minneapolis. Along with two other House members, she was seen on video visiting a Minneapolis detention facility over the weekend, flanked by a hoard of protesters and ICE hecklers. Another video from the weekend showed Omar riding in the back of a pickup truck leading protesters through Minneapolis...

US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents arrested a 39-year-old Afghan national who was previously convicted of attempting to murder his teenage sister in what was described as an "honor" attack. Waheed Allah Mohammad was taken into custody on January 1 in Rochester, New York. According to ICE, the incident occurred in 2008 when Mohammed stabbed his then-19-year-old sister multiple times during a heated argument. Mohammad reportedly called his sister a "bad Muslim girl" and accused her of disgracing the family by dressing immodestly and frequenting nightclubs and dance clubs. "This criminal illegal alien tried to kill his own sister,"...

The Iranian rial has effectively collapsed, plummeting to an unprecedented low of more than 1.47 million per US dollar on unofficial markets this week. The currency crash has triggered a wave of nationwide 'revolutionary' protests, as the cost of basic survival spirals out of reach for millions of Iranians. On Monday, 12 January 2026, the dollar was quoted as high as 1.47 million rials in the 'free market' of Tehran, marking a catastrophic decline from 2025 levels. For comparison, the rial traded at roughly 70 to the dollar during the 1979 revolution; it has now lost approximately 20,000 times its...

Recently unredacted construction plans for China’s new super embassy in London have ignited a storm of national security concerns across the United Kingdom, as blueprints reveal a hidden underground room positioned alarmingly close to some of Britain’s most sensitive communication cables. Major critics of the proposed site, which will run as close as three feet to the internet infrastructure, warned that the secret room could serve as a hub for Chinese espionage. While the British government reportedly assured its allies that the lines do not carry sensitive government data, the cables transmit financial transactions as well as communication traffic for...

Since October 7, 2023, a new political reality has taken hold in Europe and the United States – the emergence of a large, sustained anti-Israel protest movement joined by organized factions of the radical left and, in some cases, elected officials. The movement calls itself “pro-Palestinian,” and the mass media accept the label, though it dramatically understates the ideology and objectives of the headline-making protesters. Some pundits – and politicians – prefer a different description: “critics of Israel.” All of which is as grotesquely misleading as referring to Nazis as pro-German critics of Jews or Klansmen as pro-white critics of...

Freedom of religion is on the ropes in increasingly authoritarian Canada — despite a specific charter guarantee of “freedom of religion and conscience.” Indeed, an Ontario court ruled previously that doctors can be coerced under threat of professional discipline to perform lethal jabs or abortions against their religious beliefs and conscience objections. Why? The court ruled that the unenumerated right of patients to receive any legal procedure paid for by the government superseded the specific charter protection. If doctors don’t want to kill, the court also ruled, they can either provide an “effective referral” — meaning soliciting a doctor known...

Charlie Kirk stood up for many causes but as Dick Morris pointed out recently in his book about Charlie, the primary cornerstone of his public advocacy was the right to life of the unborn. He insisted that every human life deserves protection, and he loved to support the pregnancy center movement. “It’s not enough to be against abortion,” he said at an event in 2023. “We have to actually help women choose life.” The life and legacy of the founder of Turning Point USA, killed by an assassin’s bullet as he spoke to students at Utah Valley University last September,...

A new report from Students for Life of America’s Demetree Institute for Pro-Life Advancement has found that 114 Christian colleges and universities in the United States — more than one in seven — are supporting abortion in some way. The report found these Christian universities either backing abortion or maintaining some type of relationship with Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortion company. The investigation, conducted for the fourth consecutive year during the 2024-2025 academic year, examined 725 institutions affiliated with Christ-centered denominations that publicly claim a historical Christian faith in their founding. Schools from denominations embracing a pro-abortion stance, such...

At least six prosecutors in the Minneapolis US Attorney’s Office have resigned in protest over the Justice Department’s push to probe Renee Good’s widow. New cellphone footage from the ICE agent involved in the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good was released last Friday. The POV footage shows Good’s wife, Becca Good, talking trash to the ICE agent as he approaches her wife’s SUV. “You wanna come at us?” Good’s wife said, taunting the ICE agent. “I say go get yourself some lunch, big boy.” “Get out of the f*cking car!” an ICE agent said as he tried to open...

Billionaire Bill Ackman doubled down on his decision to leave a $10,000 donation on a GoFundMe campaign supporting the federal immigration agent who shot and killed anti-ICE activist Renee Nicole Good — but admitted he didn’t “do any due diligence on the case” before seeking out the fundraiser. Ackman, 59, openly admitted to leaving the top donation on a GoFundMe for Jonathan Ross, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent who fired three fatal “defensive shots” at Good last Wednesday. In a post on X, Ackman lamented that he had been “widely reviled (and worse) by many on social and mainstream...
