According to the video, British Prime Minister Anthony Eden ordered the original British copy of the Protocol of Sèvres—a secret agreement made with France and Israel to justify military intervention in the Suez Canal—shredded because he was "terrified of its existence" and aware on some level that his actions were "indefensible." (11:15 - 11:43) Summarise the video This video details the Suez Crisis of 1956, a pivotal event that marked the decline of the British Empire and the rise of the United States as a global financial power. It explores how Gamal Abdul Nasser’s nationalization of the Suez Canal (6:15-7:30)...

FIRST ON FOX: A federal grand jury is investigating alleged financial crimes by Neville Roy Singham, the China-based tech tycoon whose fortune has funded a sprawling network of socialist, communist and Marxist organizations across the U.S. over the last decade. According to sources familiar with the matter, the grand jury in Manhattan has issued subpoenas as part of a probe launched by U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton for the Southern District of New York, one of the country's most powerful districts for federal prosecutions. Acting U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche authorized the investigation as the Trump administration seeks to crack down...

Austrian Commissioner: protection will not be granted to those whom the Ukrainian authorities did not allow to leave. The European Commission has proposed to revoke the temporary protection status in the European Union for incoming Ukrainian refugees who are fit for military service. This initiative was previously supported by the Czech Republic, Germany, Poland, and Sweden. Experts note that under the current losses of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, it is impossible to replenish personnel through mobilization, which is why Kyiv has asked the European Union to take such measures. The EU also finds this beneficial now, as European society is...

Labour Party leader Keir Starmer got a bit tearful in his resignation remarks, quite a departure from the emotionless, bot-like face he normally presents to the world. But then, he was alluding to his family, people he apparently cares about. He's sad now, but in the days to come, he may realize that he has dodged a bullet – or perhaps a lynching – as the soul-sickening findings published by the Restore Britain Party's leader's Rupert Lowe 219-page Rape Gang Inquiry Report, released June 16, are bruited in international news. Starmer did not envision facing that particular music so soon....

GREEN BAY (WLUK) -- For the second time in 2026, the city of Green Bay has accidently sent duplicate ballots to some voters across the city. The city of Green Bay announced early Sunday evening that residents across the city have started to receive their mail-in ballots for the August primary election. However, some of the residents who received one of the 5,084 total ballots also received an additional ballot. The city says its staff became aware of the issue on Saturday that some voters in wards 11a, 12a, 37a, 44-47 and part of ward 43 received a duplicate ballot....

Among our “climate leader” jurisdictions, Britain is a serious contender for the top spot. Sure Germany got started earlier than Britain, with the so-called “Energiewende” going back to the 1990s; and upstart American states like California and New York each think that their own hair shirt energy restrictions should qualify them for the number one position. But Britain’s suite of policies in the aggregate is hard to top: mandatory Net Zero goals set by statute; madcap buildout of wind and solar electricity generation; shuttering of generation from coal and natural gas; refusal to permit drilling in the North Sea; complete...

Former President Joe Biden delivered a sharp critique of President Donald Trump during a speech to Maryland Democrats on Saturday night. Speaking at the Maryland Democratic Party’s “Fight Back & Win” gala, Biden said Trump isn't focused on addressing Americans’ problems. “It’s simply stunning to me. He has no shame,” Biden said. Biden criticized Trump’s changes around Washington, D.C., including the White House ballroom and the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. “These are vanity projects,” Biden said. “They’re not about making people’s lives better.” Biden referred to Trump as “a loser” for using his "pool guy" to do the Reflecting Pool...

I had never heard of Citizen Vigilante, Uwe Boll's new film starring Armie Hammer, until a few days ago. That's when I read that this movie has been effectively banned in Germany and the United Kingdom. Something about it encouraging violence against migrants. But then Elon Musk made Citizen Vigilante available to watch for free on his X (formerly Twitter) platform. Something that would avoid the censorious thought police and let the people see and decide on their own. Which only made the German and British governments even more furious. Rush Limbaugh called it the "Streisand Effect": trying to keep...

Rep. Nancy Pelosi, who has served nearly 40 years in Congress to become one of its most influential power brokers, on Monday announced who she will take on when she leaves office in January: UC Berkeley students. The Nancy Pelosi Institute for Representative Democracy, to be launched with tens of millions of dollars in gifts from Pelosi and other donors, will seek to bring leading scholars to campus, cultivate students’ ambitions for public service, and position itself as a Bay Area counterweight to major university political institutes that frequently attract former members of Congress and White House staff. Pelosi (D-San...

Pete Buttigieg's harrowing swatting story from last week is now coming under scrutiny, suggesting he may not be telling the entire truth. As TGP's Jordan Conradson reported, Buttigieg claims he was swatted this week by Child Protective Service agents and separated from his four-year-old twins. Buttigieg ran to Substack to write a column about the incident. Describing himself as "bewildered and troubled," Buttigieg said that "the CPS worker told me something that made my stomach turn: I was not to be alone around the children, at least until the interview took place the next day." After a "sleepless night," he...

... "One of the things that we should have pride about, and that all around the country, I think people look in envy about the fact that Illinois truly does step up and protect our LGBTQ+ community," Pritzker said, "and we're not going to stop." One of the bills Pritzker signed, HB4834, removes testosterone from the Illinois Prescription Monitoring Program — the electronic database that collects information about specific medications and treatments. The bill also prevents the addition of estrogen, mifepristone, and misoprostol — the latter two of which are used to end pregnancies early — to the monitoring program....

The full release of the film on X triggered a wave of reactions against Germany’s decision to block its commercial distribution.

The twin earthquakes that struck Venezuela this week were not merely acts of nature—they laid bare decades of deliberate neglect and ideological folly. A magnitude 7.2 quake followed seconds later by a 7.5 temblor devastated the northern coast near Caracas, particularly La Guaira state, collapsing buildings and claiming at least 1,430 lives as of the latest reports, with tens of thousands still missing. Rescue workers sifting through the rubble made a grim discovery: entire apartment complexes, many erected under Hugo Chávez’s “Grand Housing Mission,” were little more than facades held together by Styrofoam and thin concrete shells. Video from the...

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey (D) celebrated Somali Independence Day, stating that the people of Minneapolis “stand with” Somali immigrants. In a post on X, Frey shared a video in which he stated that the Somali community in Minneapolis was seen as “family” and not as immigrants. In his post, Frey wrote that Minneapolis celebrated “the resilience, culture, and leadership that continue to enrich” the city and community. “Through the most difficult of times and through Operation Metro Surge, we all saw that they tried to come for some of us,” Frey said. “And, when that happens, we say that you’re...

In the choice between thriving capitalism and over-taxed regulatory hell, money speaks louder than Eurocratic political hype. The American economy is leaving Europe behind. It is happening in real time, and nothing can stop it. America has chosen the future; Europe has chosen its own demise. This is not just a slogan. It is the cold, hard truth visible in stack upon stack of economic statistics. The fact that Europe’s political leadership remains blind, deaf, and willfully ignorant of the economic decline of their continent is one of history’s many self-imposed tragedies. Few numbers are as devastating to a nation’s...
