Free Republic

The Left is beginning to panic about Tulsi Gabbard's investigation into the massive election fraud in 2020. They have good reason to. For the first time since then, I actually have hope that the fraud will be exposed for all to see. I would say that the evidence produced will be undeniable, but the left will always deny what they find inconvenient. Just 2 months ago, Fulton County acknowledged that 315,000 ballots from the 2020 election weren’t properly certified.A mere 11,779 votes determined the winner in Georgia.President Trump has every right to ask questions—and make sure it doesn’t happen again....

While Washington searches for ways to weaken Iran’s murderous rulers, our supposed NATO ally Turkey is working overtime to keep the mullahs alive — and in power. This week’s diplomatic tug-of-war over US-Iran negotiations is a win for Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Turkey’s Islamist strongman, who has led a cynical campaign to stall for time and block US and Israeli military action against the Islamic Republic after its brutal crackdown on civilian protesters. He’s feigning concern that military action would spark “regional instability,” but his real goal is simple: Keep Iran’s theocracy from falling — and stop the emergence of a...

The Washington Post editorial board has a good piece up today about some new data put out by the Cato Institute. What the data is looking at is purchasing power. Over time, workers are caught in a balance between rising inflation and rising wages. This data is used to calculate something called the "time price" which is the amount of working time needed to purchase a standard basked of goods. Here's how the Post explained it.The premise of the index is simple: how many hours do you need to work, compared to the month or year before, to be able...

One tip to California law enforcement resulted in a week-long sweep of the human garbage that engineers and facilitates human trafficking in the state. Thanks to a joint enterprise called "Operation Reclaim and Rebuild," 156 adults and 14 children were rescued from human sex trafficking. The evil actors who enslaved them were also snatched up: 71 suspected traffickers were arrested, along with 328 sex buyers.It was a bad week for the criminal element in the state, and that is how it should be. A single tip about a quiet suburban home in California exploded into a massive human trafficking takedown...

South Korea’s stubbornly low birth rate could force dozens of universities to shutter in the coming years, experts say, as the country faces record-low enrollment at elementary schools.

The truth about Algerian boxer Imane Khelif has finally come out, and it comes directly from Khelif himself. He is, admits the man who won the gold medal in women's welterweight boxing at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, a biological male.In an interview with a French sports outlet, Khelif confesses to having the SRY gene, which is located on the Y chromosome and is found in biological males. He also reveals that he underwent hormone therapy ahead of the Olympics in an effort to reduce his testosterone levels. "I have taken hormone treatments to lower my testosterone levels for...

At the most recent Grammy Awards, singer Billie Eilish asserted that "no one is illegal on stolen land." While her intent was to denounce the deportation criminal aliens being conducted by Immigration, Customs and Border (ICE) officers, the Tongva tribe has called for her "to be evicted from the land that was stolen from us." Chief Anthony Red Blood Morales explained "we appreciate her admission that she is occupying land that was stolen from our people. We look forward to her agreeing to exit this land or propose an equitable rent or leasing fee to continue her occupation of our...

@BillClinton I have called for the full release of the Epstein files. I have provided a sworn statement of what I know. And just this week, I’ve agreed to appear in person before the committee. But it’s still not enough for Republicans on the House Oversight Committee. Now, Chairman Comer says he wants cameras, but only behind closed doors. Who benefits from this arrangement? It’s not Epstein’s victims, who deserve justice. Not the public, who deserve the truth. It serves only partisan interests. This is not fact-finding, it’s pure politics. I will not sit idly as they use me as...

The earthquake in Shaanxi China on January 23, 1556 was not, by any means, the most powerful earthquake experienced in human history. Still, an inscription from the time ends, simply, "Since the beginning of time, there has been no earthquake comparable to this one." Note: Just because you can think up a reason to criticize doesn't mean that you are obligated to do so. Pedantic is not a compliment folks.

@realTJRoberts Thomas Massie has been a hero, a mentor, and a supporter to me since I was very young. He’s been a champion for the America First cause, and a thorn in the side of big government for as long as I can remember. For that reason, he has my complete support. Thomas Massie's commitment to the Constitution and the principles of liberty is unmatched. His proven track record in Congress speaks volumes, and has yielded him the top scores from organizations like Turning Point, Gun Owners of America, and the New American Freedom Index. He consistently fights against government...

Sir Keir Starmer's rattled allies today issued a desperate warning to rebel Labour MPs that a leadership coup by Angela Rayner will trigger a general election. The under-fire Prime Minister is battling to stay in Downing Street as he reels from the Lord Mandelson scandal, with a number of backbenchers openly questioning his future. In a bid to contain the crisis, Sir Keir has promised to release documents related to Lord Mandelson's appointment as US ambassador in February last year. But the Government was forced into ceding control of the release of material to Parliament's Intelligence and Security Committee (ISC),...

“I approached this bastard and in my hands I had my old Remington Model 11 autoloader crammed with 00 buckshot. Frank Pachmayr had put an extension on the magazine which ran right out to the muzzle and this gave me a reserve of fire which sometimes proved quite advantageous.

On the eve of their trial, three men charged in the murder of Kevin Nishita have accepted plea deals in the case and will spend decades in prison.

MILAN (AP) — American athletes received an enthusiastic welcome at the opening ceremony for the Milan Cortina Winter Olympics, but the mood shifted when cameras briefly turned to Vice President JD Vance. Led by speedskater and flag bearer Erin Jackson, Team USA was among the last delegations to enter Milan’s San Siro stadium in the parade of nations on Friday. The crowd cheered for the Americans but jeers and whistles could be heard as Vance and his wife, second lady Usha Vance, were shown on the stadium screens, waving American flags from the tribune. Support for the U.S. among its...

SBA suspends more than 111,000 borrowers in the state Earlier this week, the White House announced plans for a new anti-fraud task force targeting welfare abuse in California and other states, and assigned Vice President J.D. Vance, Andrew Ferguson of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), and Attorney General Pam Bondi. California Attorney General Rob Bonta fell all over himself Thursday claiming that the California Department of Justice was working to tackle fraud in the state. He even “pushed back” against the Trump Administration’s characterization that California programs are overrun by fraud and that state government is somehow facilitating this fraud....

There is a reason some modern political slogans feel impossible to challenge without sounding cruel, un-Christian, or “extreme.” It’s not because they are true. It’s because they are designed to stop you from thinking. That insight comes from James Lindsay, who recently explained a sloganeering concept most Evangelicals have never heard of but encounter every day: tifa. The word comes from Chinese Communist political strategy and refers to short, emotionally loaded slogans engineered to hijack moral instincts and shut down critical thought.

It's probably best to begin by letting everyone know that this column isn't about politics. Whenever I write anything about the National Football League, my comments section is stormed by an army of conservative keyboard warriors who, in their Colin Kaepernick-filled rage, are all too eager to unload on Roger Goodell and the organization over which he presides. Trust me, dear readers, I have plenty of bad things to say about Roger Goodell, but they're mostly about the game of football. My lament comes from a place of deep, lifelong fandom and is triggered by the fact that I don't...

World War I not only toppled empires and redrew borders—it remade the modern world, with few nations feeling the effects as profoundly as Great Britain. The country’s deadliest war—from which 6 percent of its men never returned—accelerated sweeping social, economic and political changes that fractured the rigid British class system and weakened the aristocracy. For centuries, hereditary landowners exercised a near feudal dominance of the British countryside. As late as 1873, fewer than 5 percent of Britons owned all of England’s property. But an agricultural depression in the late 1800s had already begun to erode their dominance as the First...

A man charged in an investigation into an alleged biolab operation in Las Vegas has also been accused of illegally keeping firearms in his home, according to multiple reports citing a federal complaint. Ori Solomon, 55, the property manager of the location where the alleged laboratory was discovered, faces state charges for allegedly disposing and discharging hazardous waste, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD) said in a press conference on Monday. According to a criminal complaint reviewed by Newsweek, he is also accused of illegally keeping firearms, including a Glock handgun, after a federal search warrant was issued for...
