Syria’s Al Qaeda regime is massacring Kurds to free imprisoned ISIS terrorists, state sponsors of Hamas in Turkey and Qatar are being named to boards running Gaza and thousands of democracy protesters are being massacred in Iran while Al Jazeera defends the regime. This isn’t American foreign policy, but it is Qatar’s foreign policy. The White House’s foreign policy in the Muslim world is now virtually identical to Qatar’s foreign policy apart from Israel. And as thousands die in Iran after empty promises of support, there is a bigger picture here of institutional capture by a tiny and powerful Islamic...

Chris Cuomo warns CNN’s Scott Jennings over his refusal to stop using the term ‘illegals’: ‘Don’t be a tough guy’ NewsNation host Chris Cuomo warned CNN analyst Scott Jennings Wednesday that if he keeps using the term “illegal aliens,” somebody might beat him up. Cuomo accused Jennings of acting like a “bully” and a “tough guy” when he dismissed activist Cameron Kasky’s assertion that “you don’t get to say the word illegals anymore,” during a recent CNN panel. Jennings refused to stop using the term and repeatedly asked Kasky, “How are you going to enforce your edict on me?” “What...

Former Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, a potential White House hopeful for 2028, said on Wednesday that he wants a mandatory retirement age of 75 for the president and people holding office in other branches of government. “You’re 75 years old: done,” Emanuel, a Democrat, said at a Center for American Progress event. “And that would be in the legislative branch, it’d be in the executive branch — including the Cabinet — and it’d also be in the Supreme Court, and all the federal courts.” Emanuel, 66, acknowledged that he would be affected by this proposal if he happens to be...

Newly-minted Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger was compared to a 'Bond villain' after enacting far-left policies on her first day in office despite campaigning as a moderate Democrat. Spanberger, a former Congresswoman and CIA officer, stormed to a blowout victory over sitting Lieutenant Governor Winsome Earle-Sears in a momentum boost for Democrats. However, many conservatives have been horrified by some of Spanberger's first week executive orders, which includes reducing cooperation with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Spanberger campaigned on the order.

Miami club owners who vowed to probe Nick Fuentes’ Nazi night out revealed to have partied with far-right revelers instead. A Miami nightclub solemnly vowed to investigate after a group of white supremacists and accused sex-traffickers were given VIP treatment and danced to Kanye West’s song “Heil Hitler” while enjoying bottle service. But Page Six has learned that the club’s owners were partying with the vile posse. A group of extremists partied at a Miami nightclub called Vendome this weekend. @Antunes1/X At least it should make the investigation easy! Over the weekend, video circulated of reviled internet personality Nick Fuentes,...

(RNS) — At least 100 rabbis and other Jewish leaders are expected to join the growing coalition of clergy, union leaders and community activists gathering in Minneapolis on Thursday (Jan. 22) and Friday to protest the massive show of force by federal immigration agencies in Minnesota in recent weeks. The local Jewish community has already taken a key role in the resistance to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Minneapolis, but last week’s killing of Renee Good, an American citizen fatally shot by an ICE agent, has mobilized rabbis across the country. Two progressive Jewish activist organizations, T’ruah: The Rabbinic...

A GiveSendGo fundraiser is swiftly raising money to help Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota, after the Southern Baptist congregation made headlines Sunday for having their worship service disrupted by a mob of left-wing protesters and former CNN host Don Lemon. As of Wednesday afternoon, the fundraiser was already approaching $20,000 of its $100,000 goal, just hours after being started by conservative influencer and podcast host Benny Johnson. Johnson claimed the Rev. Jonathan Parnell, lead pastor of Cities Church, had "authorized this GiveSendGo personally so that Cities Church in Minnesota can defend Christians." "100% of all proceeds go to the...

Rather than teach the three R’s, public schools are more likely to instruct students to believe the liberal narrative rather than their lying eyes regarding the timely demise of Renee Good. Forty-seven miles from Minneapolis, via the New York Post… Becker High School social studies teacher Dr. Heather Abrahamson grew increasingly agitated as she insisted that ICE agent Jonathan Ross used unnecessary deadly force against Good, 37, according to Libs of TikTok, which posted the clip and identified Abrahamson in a Tuesday X post. In addition to informing students that Ross had a duty to let a leftist maniac run...

Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison has insisted that the FACE Act only applies to abortion clinics, coming as the Department of Justice is probing possible violations of the law in relation to the storming of a St Paul church by anti-ICE agitators. Speaking on former CNN host Don Lemon’s podcast, Ellison said, "Yeah, I'm familiar with the FACE Act. You know, in Minnesota, we have—we uphold the right of a woman to choose, and some of the activists, you know, will, you know, sort of—you know, they, so it’s…" He continued, "The law has to do with the, you know,...

A bill introduced in the Washington State Senate would establish a funding stream for abortions by imposing a new assessment on certain health insurance carriers. The proposed measure drew swift criticism from a conservative group that is urging Washingtonians to oppose it. SB Bill 6182, introduced Jan. 16 during the 69th Legislature’s 2026 regular session, would create an “abortion savings program” run by the Washington Department of Health. The program would distribute grants to “eligible organizations” that employ “health care providers authorized to terminate a pregnancy.” Under the bill, health insurance carriers that offer plans through Washington’s health exchange would...

New York state has abandoned its nearly decade-long push to require Christian organizations, including nuns and churches, to fund abortions. The radically pro-abortion state has tried to make Christians pay for killing babies through employee health insurance plans. But it’s decision to finally give up marks a significant victory for religious freedom advocates after repeated interventions by the U.S. Supreme Court. The state ended its effort to apply the abortion mandate to Catholic and Anglican nuns, Catholic dioceses, Christian churches, and faith-based social ministries, according to a settlement announced by Becket, the religious liberty law firm representing the groups. The...
