Fading tyranny's losing game plan is no match for the anger of the recently released oppressed. The Iranian people have embraced the concept we only stick on our car bumpers. They are facing death daily to live free. The Iranian People have already won.

TALLAHASSEE, FLA. (WSVN) - A Florida woman who lives with a disability said a new law that allows pregnant women to apply for temporary disabled parking permits threatens her ability to live independently, according to a lawsuit. “I just feel very strongly that pregnancy is not a disability, I just want to be able to park up front,” said State Rep. Fiona McFarland in 2025. That moment from a State House committee meeting in March helped lay the foundation for a new law that allows expecting mothers to apply for temporary disabled parking permits for a $15 fee. The permits...

President Donald Trump has announced the United States would impose 10% tariffs on multiple European countries unless Denmark agrees to the "complete and total purchase of Greenland," warning that global security and U.S. national defense were at stake.

President Donald Trump’s second term has been a debacle, according to a damning new CNN poll released Friday. A majority of Americans polled in the survey -- 58% -- characterized Trump’s first year of his second term as a “failure,” according to the poll. Just 42% of respondents said Trump’s second term has been a success. There were virtually no silver linings for the president in the survey. A plurality of respondents said Trump “made things worse” on several issues he outlined in his inauguration speech, while a lion’s share of those polled said the president has “gone too far”...

WASHINGTON, D.C — According to sources, President Donald Trump met with a prominent Muslim leader in the Oval Office on Friday to discuss the ongoing protests and unrest in Iran. Tucker Carlson, one of the world's most well-known and outspoken proponents of Islam, arrived at the White House for an important meeting with President Trump, as rumors persisted that the U.S. was on the verge of launching strikes against the Ayatollah's Iranian regime. "It's important for the president to consider several different perspectives, including from Muslims, before condoning a course of action that could lead our country to war," said...

Tucker Carlson met with Donald Trump at the White House - and his appearance in the Oval Office has sparked another chapter in the growing MAGA civil war. The former Fox News anchor was seen beaming in images shared by his Tucker Carlson Network to social media on Friday, including engaging in a friendly conversation with Secretary of State Marco Rubio. White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles was also seen at the meeting. The Anti-Defamation League, a nonprofit organization with a mission to combat antisemitism, issued a scathing response to the meeting on X, writing: 'Tucker Carlson should have...

Here are some practical steps immigrants can take to stay safe and understand their rights.As ICE raids continue escalating throughout the country, Texas has long been a hotspot for large-scale immigration operations and arrests. Although overall immigration growth has slowed in Austin, its welcoming culture and longtime status as a so-called sanctuary city have historically attracted immigrants. In 2025 alone, the Lone Star State saw tens of thousands of immigrants without legal status arrested, according to federal data and media reports. While the Trump administration has shown no indication of slowing down these anti-immigrant procedures, here's what experts recommend for...

A BBC News anchor set off an online firestorm after she apparently “hissed” at a young musician who named Jesus Christ as one of his heroes. Geeta Guru-Murthy let loose with the unfiltered reaction Saturday while interviewing up and coming musician DC3, whose given name is Daniel Chenjerai. “Santan Dave, Kendrick Lamar, most of all, Jesus Christ,” the 18-year-old replied on air when Guru-Murthy asked him to list those he admired. Guru-Murthy, 58, sharply and audibly winced right after hearing “Jesus Christ,” sparking memes and backlash on social media with X users slamming the host and the network, claiming they...

About 27 councils representing more than five million people are controversially expected to postpone local elections due to be held in May. Most of the authorities are Labour controlled, prompting accusations that Sir Keir Starmer is “running scared of voters” as his party faces dismal poll ratings. Ministers asked 63 councils if they would like to delay polls to free up time and save cash for an overhaul of local government structures. Some of the town halls due to hold elections in 2026 will be merged into new unitary councils next year or in 2028, so councillors elected in May...

Lefty “Squad” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is using her powerful fundraising muscle to back a moderate, pro-gun, drill-baby-drill Democrat. “I’m reaching out to ask if you can split a $5 donation between Mary Peltola’s campaign for US Senate and our movement for progress?” the Democratic Socialist from Queens blasted out Tuesday in an email appeal. “Mary is running on a platform of systemic change — she’ll fight in the Senate to lower grocery costs and build new housing Alaskans can afford.” What the socialist rep didn’t mention to her progressive supporters is that Peltola lists her campaign priorities as “fish, family,...

Thomas Homan deports people. And he’s really good at it. Homan is the Washington bureaucrat in charge of rounding up, detaining and kicking illegal immigrants out of the country. As Americans fight over whether the next president should build a wall on the Mexico border to keep migrants out or protect millions of them from deportation, Homan is actually hunting undocumented immigrants down right now, setting strategy for 8,000 officers on the front lines. He was honored last week with the government’s highest civil service award, bestowed on federal leaders whose work gets “extraordinary” results. According to his bosses at...

Foundation. “It’s time to take the battle to the actual people responsible for kidnapping, disappearing, and shooting our neighbors,” reads the post. “Behind the masks, ICE agents have names and addresses, and some of them feel comfortable enough to live in the same city they terrorize on a daily basis.”

Just five days before the election of 2008, which would catapult him into the presidency, candidate Barack Obama gave a speech in which he made what is now one of his infamous statements: “We are just five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America.” In typical fashion, the press was too busy making goo-goo eyes at Obama to parse out what he meant by that statement, much less ask why a “fundamental transformation” of America would be necessary or desirable. Bestselling author and commentator Mark Levin asked what is perhaps the most salient question when he said,...

This socialist pol is keeping his past in the rear view. David Orkin, a Democratic Socialists of America-backed candidate vying to unseat one of ex-NYC Mayor Eric Adams’ biggest allies in the state Assembly, promotes himself as a “working class” candidate — despite being the silver-spooned spawn of a celebrity butt doctor. Orkin, an anti-Israel activist and lawyer with the George Soros-backed immigrant-rights “social justice” nonprofit Make the Road New York, gushed last week he’s the “proud son of a Mexican immigrant mother whose Jewish grandparents migrated to Mexico to escape the persecution of the pogroms,” while announcing his plans...

The Department of Homeland Security, the Justice Department and legal scholars laid out what could happen if Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner follows through on his promise to prosecute ICE in the line of their duty, should operations in Pennsylvania reach a flashpoint. Last week, Krasner warned he would prosecute agents who "come to Philly to commit crimes" in an apparent reference to allegations an agent acted unlawfully in shooting a Minnesota woman who appeared to intentionally hit him with her car while disrupting an operation. Philadelphia County Sheriff Rochelle Bilal doubled down, calling ICE officers "fake, wannabe law enforcement"...

Abhishek Parmar has spent more than six years making Windsor-Essex his new home. But now he is one of the 2.1 million temporary residents who may have to leave Canada this year. “I have never even thought of leaving this place," he said. "And now, things are coming to an end.
