VIDEO AT LINK............ WATCH: Rep. Crockett Accidentally EXPOSES the Democrats’ Entire Redistricting SCAM Rep. Jasmine Crockett appeared on MSNOW this week to discuss redistricting, but the interview quickly became a perfect example of how Democrats talk about elections when they are losing power. Crockett, who recently lost the Texas Democrat Senate primary to James Talarico, argued that the country is experiencing “democracies in free fall” because of Republican-led redistricting fights. The segment focused heavily on Texas, Louisiana, Alabama, South Carolina, and other states where Democrats claim Republican maps threaten Black and Latino representation. But the more Crockett talked, the more...

It’s been years since going to the movie theater seemed worth it. But the sequel to “The Devil Wears Prada” is truly different, worth every dime. Featuring many members of the original cast, this is a smart and hilarious sendup of modern corporate culture that was mercifully free of woke signalling. Twenty years after Andy Sachs first stepped into the cruel offices of Runway magazine, this movie (directed by David Frankel, written by Aline Brosh McKenna) delivers a witty and incisive sequel. It transforms the original’s fashion-world fairy tale into a pointed critique of today’s media landscape: the triumph of...

This is a good interview with DOJ whistleblower Johnathon Gross discussing the failure of the DOJ to seriously address corruption and lawfare within its ranks. The video is over two hours long and covers a lot of material, but in summary, Gross was hired in the early months of President Trump's second term as part of a team tasked with addressing civil right violations relating to J6 and lawfare in general. He ended up being pushed out of his position for being too persistent in his efforts for accountability.

President Donald Trump struck a conciliatory tone during his trip to China. He returned from his Beijing summit with Xi Jinping yesterday full of praise for the “great leader,” who is, in Trump’s estimations, “an incredible guy.” The summit was “very successful, world-renowned, and unforgettable,” according to the President, who insisted that “a lot of different problems were settled.” But there’s one problem that hasn’t been addressed: the growing number of Chinese operations on US soil. Last week Eileen Wang, the mayor of the southern Californian city of Arcadia agreed to plead guilty to acting as an illegal agent of...

The mysterious Mycenaean collapse and the possible role of climate change continue to fascinate historians and archaeologists alike. If you ever visit the ruins of Mycenae or Tiryns, it is hard not to be amazed by the massive Cyclopean walls that surround these ancient cities. For centuries, however, historians have looked at these fortresses and wondered what could have brought down such a powerful civilization, one so advanced for its time that it still captivates experts and visitors alike. During the Late Bronze Age, these palatial centers ranked among the most dominant powers of the Aegean and the wider Mediterranean,...

When the experienced rock carving hunter Tormod Fjeld was driving his daughter Ada to a nearby location, the two of them decided to take a closer look beneath Kolsåstoppen, a hill in Bærum, Eastern Norway.That was when they found something remarkable: magnificent ships carved into the rock.Perhaps these carvings show people in Norway 3,000 years ago -- sitting in their ship, maybe even wearing helmets.They also spotted a large footprint of the sole of a foot, as well as a hand with five thick fingers.And then more ships appeared -- some carved upright, others upside down.

"I could never imagine anyone else playing Helen. The moment we started on the Odyssey, my first call was to Steve. I said, 'Steve,...

CONFLICTING LOYALTIES An interviewer once asked the late Senator Sam Ervin, Jr. how he had developed such insight into human behavior. "I had a good teacher, Henry Horace Williams," replied Ervin. "He said the things that try people's souls do not consist of choosing between good and evil. The thing that tries a person's soul is having to choose between conflicting loyalties." Ervin went on to say that understanding that concept had not only helped him make better decisions, but to judge other people more fairly as well. Sometimes unwise choices were simply the result of misplaced loyalty. "A...

If left unchecked, Labour will destroy Britain. If you think the situation in Britain was bad under failed Prime Minister Keir Starmer, just wait until you learn the plans of his two challengers. It arises today that both former Health Secretary Wes Streeting and Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham defend the thesis that Britain must rejoin the European Union. They would both ‘seek a mandate’ for this move if elected Labour Party leader and Prime Minister. "Britain's future lies with Europe - and one day, back in the European Union." Former health secretary Wes Streeting says the UK needs a new...
