As hate crimes surge at an alarming rate—up 150% in just one month—the Islamo-socialist mayor’s legacy is increasingly being defined by that grim statistic: the “Hate Crime Mayor.”Congratulations-NOT - Islamo-Socialist Mamdani is officially the 'HATE CRIME MAYOR'. Anti-Jewish hate surging at ‘staggering margin’ in NYC, up 150% last month, by some NYPD metrics. JNS. June 12, 2026. *

After Israel strikes Hezbollah targets in Beirut’s Dahiyeh neighborhood, Iran seeks to paint the attacks as a threat to an emerging deal between Tehran and Washington. “The Zionists’ incursion into Dahiyeh has once again shown that America either lacks the will to fulfill its commitments or the ability to do so,” writes Iran’s top negotiator and parliament speaker, Mohammad Ghalibaf, on X. “By giving the green light to the regime, you cannot gain concessions. The game of bad cop and good cop is outdated,” he says. "If you lack the will and ability to fulfill your commitments, speaking of continuing...

Donald Trump will confront Sir Keir Starmer over immigration at the G7 summit this week, White House sources have said. The US president is expected to press the Prime Minister and other European leaders on the matter after violent unrest in Belfast drew international attention. European diplomats feared that Mr Trump would use the unrest caused by the alleged attempted beheading of a man in Northern Ireland to demand that Europe do more, sources added. A Sudanese asylum seeker is in custody, charged with attempted murder. The issue of migration has become a growing point of tension between Washington and...

New York City was a picture of pandemonium on Saturday night as the Knicks' NBA Championship celebrations descended into bloody violence and a teenager was shot. Across the city, riot police were deployed to quell the madness and videos showed the party turning ugly in Times Square as fans literally ripped apart a school bus while the driver begged them to stop. At around 2am, a 17-year-old boy was shot in the left foot at 42nd St and Broadway, according to details from the NYPD. He was taken to Bellevue Hospital in a stable condition. In Brooklyn, meanwhile, a 44-year-old...

Teenagers will be banned from certain social media platforms and have their daily usage curbed under sweeping reforms to be announced by Sir Keir Starmer on Sunday. The ban will go further than the one imposed by Australia in December by targeting technology deemed harmful to children, including chatbots and certain features on gaming apps. Under-16s in Australia have been banned from using ten platforms: TikTok, Instagram, Threads, Facebook, X, YouTube, Snapchat, Reddit, Twitch and Kick. It is understood that the UK will follow suit by raising the minimum age on social media to 16, from the average of 13,...

🚨 NOW: DHS Sec. Markwayne Mullin REFUSES to rule out sending ICE agents to polling places in the 2026 midterms "The only people in line SHOULD be American citizens...should be no REASON to have any type of that..." 💯 He's right! Why are they so concerned if "illegals never vote?"

Concern is mounting that taxpayers could be left holding the bag if the Obama Presidential Center runs into financial trouble, as the foundation behind it has yet to establish a promised $470 million safety net to guard against a public bailout. The scrutiny comes as a Fox News Digital investigation found multiple contractors and subcontractors claiming losses ranging from hundreds of thousands of dollars to millions on the project, with some alleging they remain locked in payment disputes and face financial ruin just days before the center's grand opening. Under its agreement with the city, the Obama Foundation pledged to...

Marion County Sheriff Billy Woods had zero patience for media games Thursday when a reporter tried to hijack a press conference about a major child predator sting to ask about an unrelated Florida Highway Patrol lawsuit.

Interviews with six chapter leaders of the youth conservative movement Turning Point USA in swing states revealed a striking level of frustration. “From a lot of my peers, especially in Gen Z right now, there is a lot of frustration and now, distrust, in our current administration over the decisions with the war in Iran,” said Rebekah Bushmire, vice president of the University of West Georgia’s Turning Point USA chapter. Connor Darby, vice chair of a TPUSA chapter at the University of North Georgia, pointed out Trump’s comments about pre-war strikes having destroyed Iran’s nuclear capabilities. “I thought that was...

The World Cup soccer matches, held in various American cities, are providing not only economic opportunities but, for at least some Europeans, cultural revelations. There’s substantial truth to the old saw that Europeans will never forgive us for saving them in WWII. We’re the unsophisticated, arrogant, ugly Americans they love to disparage and hate. Americans, and particularly the southern variety, are nearly beneath contempt, though our dollars aren’t. But for at least one German soccer fan traveling across the South, America and Americans have been a pleasant surprise. He has been tweeting his surprise and delight, and it’s a useful...

It was bedlam on Broadway as the New York Knicks won their first NBA championship in 53 years on Saturday night, with exuberant celebrations marred by mayhem and violence, including gunshots in Times Square. Outside Madison Square Garden, a crowd watching on a big screen roared as the Knicks rallied from a 16-point deficit to beat the Spurs in San Antonio in Game 5 of the NBA Finals. Soon after, rowdy fans were clashing with police, smashing windshields, scaling scaffolding, light poles and a statue, climbing into and atop school buses in Times Square and trying to hitch a ride...

Anonymity and obscurity are two of the most powerful elements in my prophetic ministry. Being “nobody” helps keep the heart of my message centered where it belongs—on Jesus Christ and His soon return. I can hardly save anyone, but Jesus Christ has saved the souls of untold millions across the globe. One of my favorite people in the modern world is Elon Musk. I’d love to spend some time talking with him. I often talk with Grok, one of his creations, about him, and those conversations are always interesting. But when I look at the great and wonderful things he’s...

A federal judge in Massachusetts has ordered the Trump administration to restore all signs that were changed or removed at national parks across the country as part of President Donald Trump’s controversial directive last year. In a scathing 63-page ruling on Friday, Judge Angel Kelley wrote, “Under the guise of promoting American dignity, this Administration seeks to share a limited history by ordering the removal of all signs, displays, and interpretive exhibits at National Parks that do not align with its preferred narrative, thereby telling half-truths.” Kelley, an appointee of President Joe Biden, ordered that the restoration be complete by...

Voltaire’s purported remark about “common sense” not being so “common” has no greater application than modern Democrats and their philosophies. The 18th-century French philosopher Voltaire is to have once remarked, “Common sense is not so common” when assessing the lack of logic and basic reasoning prevalent in France during the Age of Enlightenment. He certainly had a knack for distilling his views of humanity in that era. The dominant questions confronting society in that time were markedly different than those which the U.S. currently faces, but his stark observation can still be applied to a distinct segment of American society...

🇺🇸Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem 🇮🇱(6/14/26)[Prayer]PersonalitiesJudges 15:1- 15 But it came to pass within a while after, in the time of wheat harvest, that Samson visited his wife with a kid; and he said, I will go in to my wife into the chamber. But her father would not suffer him to go in. 2 And her father said, I verily thought that thou hadst utterly hated her; therefore I gave her to thy companion: is not her younger sister fairer than she? take her, I pray thee, instead of her. 3 And Samson said concerning them, Now shall...

Wishing President Trump Happy Birthday!

Barbara Boyd argues that Mike Pompeo’s June 8 X post praising former MI6 chief Alex Younger amounts to a confession that, within weeks of being named CIA director in late 2016, he coordinated closely with British intelligence—linking this partnership to the origins of Russiagate, which she cites The Guardian as attributing to British spies who fed claims to John Brennan. She highlights Richard Moore’s remarks about deep CIA–MI6 integration, points to Pompeo’s appointment of Gina Haspel and his praise of Brennan, and claims key documents were withheld until resurfaced by Tulsi Gabbard. Boyd says Pompeo and Mnuchin discussed invoking the...
