This week, a National Public Radio (NPR) headline asserted "new poll finds a majority of Americans unsure if attempts on Trump's life were real." The article went on to disclose that "30% of Americans think at least one of those incidents was staged. Forty-five percent said each of the attempts was real." That leaves about 25% in the "unsure" category. The poll was conducted by NewsGuard/YouGov. NewsGuard has been a left-wing "fact checker" since it was founded in 2018. NPR's federal government funding was recently withdrawn for its consistent left-wing bias. In the July 2024 attempt at a Trump campaign...

So my burden is to join forces with the Bible (as I understand it), and millions of faithful Christians, to encourage and nurture a faithful Christian identity that will survive and thrive with faith and hope and joy and love and purity, whether America survives, or Brazil survives, or Britain survives, or China survives, or Russia survives, or India survives — or not. Jesus said to Pilate, “My kingdom is not of this world… From which I infer that we’d better be very, very careful before we undertake any processes that involve force or coercion to put the kingdom of...

Long Island Rail Road workers went on strike early Saturday after Metropolitan Transportation Authority leaders failed to reach a deal on wage hikes with five labor unions. More than 3,500 LIRR workers across five unions, including engineers, signalmen and trainman, walked off the job at 12:01 a.m. Saturday after a heated drawn-out battle over pay raises, with union leaders arguing higher wages are needed to keep up with inflation. “The LIRR owns this strike,” Teamsters general president Sean M. O’Brien said in a statement Saturday. **SNIP** The work stoppage is expected to strand nearly 300,000 commuters, with limited shuttle buses...

Atlanta — Going into retirement, 58-year-old David White of Atlanta, Georgia, had some preconceived notions. "I thought it would be blissful and easy and joyful," White told CBS News. "… It wasn't quite." In September 2025, White retired after 33 years in education, the last 15 spent as principal at the Burgess-Peterson Academy, an elementary school. It was a career so illustrious that White was once awarded Principal of the Year for the entire Atlanta Public Schools district. He said he left mostly to be free of the daily demands. But having so much free time got old. "I was...

Daily Readings from the USCCBJesus said to his disciples: “Amen, amen, I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in my name he will give you. Until now you have not asked anything in my name; ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be complete.” John 16:23–24During Jesus’ Last Supper Discourse, the theme of praying to the Father in Jesus’ name comes up repeatedly. Each time, Jesus reassures His disciples that whatever they ask for in His name, the Father will grant. That’s quite a promise! How do we make this promise a reality? Today’s Gospel...

Watch Trump's plane from Beijing land, Trump get off the plane to his copter and take off to the White House.

Jerome Powell is not quite done running the Federal Reserve yet. The Federal Reserve Board voted on Friday to designate Jerome Powell as chair pro tempore until Kevin Warsh is sworn in as the new chair. The move was announced in a terse press release: “This temporary action to name the incumbent as chair pro tempore is consistent with past practice during similar transitions between chairs.” The press release did not explain what statutory authority the Board was relying on. Nor did it address the fact that the claim of consistency with precedent is, in critical respects, unsupported by the...

Nikola Tesla’s research seems to be popping up quite frequently these days. From researchers in Finland and Japan testing wireless energy transmission systems to using copper to creating giant plants. It would seem more people are discovering the benefits of tapping into the electricity and electrons in the air via what Tesla called the æther. Even French scientist Mr. Christofleau tapped into it to cause plants to explode in growth! How is it done? Well, one of the main tools is…copper. Here’s a short clip that shows the results of using copper in gardening (given the nickname: electro culture)

Heather Cox Richardson is a historian and academic who teaches at Boston College. In a recent video made for her subscribers, she claimed that Republicans use a 'propaganda technique' of accusing other people of what they themselves are doing. There are MOUNTAINS of evidence that show this is actually, exactly what the left does, but it gets even worse. She goes on to suggest that this makes Republicans just like the Nazis because that's where she claims this tactic comes from. Now before you dismiss this woman as the idiot she clearly is, you should know that she holds a...

A Democrat dropped out of his primary race after he was caught on video taking campaign literature from a potential voter’s mailbox, WDRB reported Wednesday. Former Democratic Kentucky State Rep. candidate Max Morley is a former public school teacher who “worked on several high-profile political races” and was previously elected to the Kentucky Education Association teacher’s union board, according to a December campaign press release. Morley can be seen removing an opponent’s campaign material from homeowner Doronda Sutherland’s mailbox in security footage posted to Facebook. VIDEO AT LINK................... Morley and Sutherland did not respond to requests for comment. “Our [LMPD]...

Last December, in a piece called “The Data Center Backlash Is Global,” I reported that residents around the world were rising up against Big Tech just as they have risen up against Big Wind and Big Solar, rejecting applications to use land.Sure, AI may be a world-changing technology, but the rush to build massive new data centers has resulted in dozens of rejections or restrictions on projects from Indianapolis to Dublin, Ireland. People are worried about property values, water usage, electricity costs and what it means for the neighborhood: “quality-of-life impacts,” as a member of the Indianapolis council, who led...

A stomach-churning viral video appears to show a McDonald’s employee shoveling french fries in her mouth and then putting them back in a box, possibly to serve to customers — and police are investigating. “So you want french fries today, right?” the woman says to the camera, before placing the fries in her mouth while a co-worker laughs behind her in the kitchen of the East Main Street McDonald’s in Southbridge, Mass., according to the disgusting video obtained by Boston 25 News. The employee then puts the fries back in the box, the vile video shows. “That’s disgusting, are you...

Canadian rapper Drake surprised fans by releasing three new albums first thing Friday morning. The White House wasted no time appropriating art from one of those projects to promote the MAGA movement. The trio of recordings are titled “Maid of Honour,” Habibti” and “Iceman.” The album cover of the last features a sparkling glove against a black backdrop. It was introduced with a social media post titled “ICEMAN.” The White House’s X account responded by posting that same glove holding a diamond encrusted “MAGA” necklace. Its caption reads, “ICED OUT.”

About a dozen years ago, having wandered for decades, I returned to the Catholic Church into which I was, as an infant, baptized in 1959. Therein lies my proprietary interest. I’ve long found Fox News host Sean Hannity to be a voice of common sense, when most in the political media sphere reliably tote woke Democrats’ water. But I wholeheartedly disagree with lifelong Catholic Sean’s April decision to leave our Church (while remaining Christian). He cited current officials hiding wrongdoings and their pursuit of popularity over traditional doctrine as causal factors. “I left the Catholic Church in large part due...

More Iranian militia types are in the news, sad to say. Even worse, they're not doing their thing on their home turf - they're in the export business. Breaking News: An Iran-backed militia commander was arrested and charged with plotting to attack Jewish sites in the U.S., including one in New York. Prosecutors say he is a leader of Kataib Hezbollah, an Iraqi militia with ties to Iran. https://t.co/5FyiNgseXk— The New York Times (@nytimes) May 15, 2026Iran-backed Iraqi terrorists Kata’ib Hezbollah are reportedly seeking negotiations with the Iraqi government for the release of kidnapped American journalist Shelly Kittleson.The group is...

A brief moment at Donald Trump’s high-stakes meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping has sparked fresh attention after the U.S. leader was seen raising a glass and appearing to take a sip during a formal reception. Footage from the event shows Trump holding a stemmed glass alongside Xi and other officials before bringing it to his lips. The moment stands out because the president has presented himself as a lifelong teetotaler—making even routine diplomatic gestures open to closer scrutiny. The reception formed part of a tightly choreographed state visit, where symbolism and protocol carry as much weight as policy discussions....
