An illegal migrant who was pardoned by Minnesota's Democratic governor for the rape of a ten-year-old girl in an apparent bid to allow him to remain in the country has been deported. Laotian pedophile Tou Lue Vang was photographed by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) being escorted onto a plane by two agents Friday afternoon. DHS ripped Walz for trying to keep Vang in the country before explaining their efforts to deport him. 'ICE has DEPORTED Tou Vang, the illegal alien CHILD RAPIST @GovTimWalz pardoned in an attempt to allow him to remain in our country,' they said in...

Assistant Chief Constable Matt Longman, of Devon and Cornwall Police, said the force's "priority remains identifying those responsible and ensuring that all available evidence is thoroughly examined".

SAN JOSE, Calif. (KGO) -- A Bay Area goat landscaping company says it could be forced out of business if changes are not made to a new state law that would significantly increase compensation costs for goat herders. Green Goat Landscapers in Gilroy, which uses about 1,000 goats to clear vegetation that can fuel wildfires, said the law could threaten the future of grazing operations that play a role in wildfire prevention across the state. "We really provide a needed service, and it benefits all of California. Goats go where people and machines can't go, and that really reduces that...

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani used America's 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence to lay into the ideals for which this country fought for its independence, saying "what is the value of life and liberty to a person who is unable or unwilling to support himself through his own efforts? For 250 years this country has lived under a system that allows the energetic and the enterprising to take more than their fair share of the wealth that is produced. In the past month we have seen Elon Musk become the world's first trillionaire. It's...

Donald Trump revealed that he has 1,000 missiles 'locked and loaded' and aimed at Iran in the event he is assassinated by the Islamic republic. The president shared details of his plans for a massive military retaliation warning Iran would be 'completely decimated' if it ever carried out its long-running threats against him. He issued the extraordinary warning on Friday night in a fiery Truth Social post following renewed calls for his death during the funeral of Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. In one of his most explicit threats yet against Tehran, Trump revealed he has already instructed military...

In this video we discuss how the same modern rabbis who still attack Christianity as unbiblical, are actually the ones themselves who warp, not only biblical prophecy about the messiah, but even distort Jewish tradition in doing so.

QUESTION: WHEN MUSLIM HORDES TAKE OVER ENTIRE THOROUGHFARES, IN CITIES LIKE CHICAGO, NYC, AND ELSEWHERE, CLOSING VEHICLE LANES, ETC., DO THEY FIRST OBTAIN PERMITS FROM POLICE AGENCIES, DOT, OR OTHERWISE ACCORDING TO LAW? OR DO THEY JUST TAKE OVER AND THE POLICE FIND A WAY TO COPE?

In 1958, the world was introduced to an intergalactic horror movie about an alien gelatinous goo that consumes everything in its wake: The Blob. The '50s B-movie has gone down in history as a classic monster flick, that would later even spawn a gory remake in 1988. But, this terrifying UFO film isn't entirely fiction, and you may want to keep an eye on the sky after hearing the shocking true story that inspired The Blob.

At the outset of our investigation, we knew there was a shocking deficit of absentee ballots compared to the required absentee envelopes, but after checking, double- and then triple-checking the data on each envelope and comparing them to the registered voters on file, we were able to prove (using evidence provided by the City of Detroit) that an incredible 26,901 absentee ballots lacked the legally required accompanying absentee ballot envelope.

An Idaho man visiting his parents in Oroville thought he had stepped on a sharp sticker plant or thistle when he looked down to see a rattlesnake at his feet instead. “I got bit twice, and one of the bites, where it was was kind of a shallow, but the other one got my vein,” Chris Howarth told SFGATE. “... I went inside. My wife thought I was joking.” But when Chris showed his wife his leg, she and their young children started “freaking out.” Chris had just stepped into his parents’ backyard to check the waterline when he was...

Iran out of patience? A defensive Mayor Zohran Mamdani tried to downplay his international affairs commissioner’s boneheaded attempted meeting with the anti-US Iranian ambassador — as he faced heat from aghast GOP lawmakers Friday. Mamdani said he never knew about Commissioner Ana Maria Archila’s scheduled — and thwarted — confab this week with Amir-Saeid Iravani, Iran’s permanent representative to the United Nations, until he received a press inquiry about it. He repeatedly stressed the sitdown never took place and chalked it up to a scheduling snafu. “The commissioner recognizes that this was made in error and we’re working on a...

Daily Readings from the USCCBMemorial of Saint Benedict, AbbotJesus said to his Apostles: “No disciple is above his teacher, no slave above his master. It is enough for the disciple that he become like his teacher, for the slave that he become like his master. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much more those of his household!” Matthew 10:24–25In Old Testament times, disciples learned from rabbis, often becoming teachers themselves who would pass on and further develop the traditions they received. But in today’s Gospel, Jesus profoundly redefines this relationship. Unlike the other rabbis, Jesus...

The European auto industry is a case study on how short-sighted trade policy goals, results in consequences. Previously, German auto companies like Volkswagen entered into trade agreements with China and began manufacturing their vehicles with immediate financial success in the market. However, it did not take long for Chinese auto companies to reverse the engineering and begin to deliver the same quality vehicles at much lower prices. The Chinese then stop purchasing the Volkswagen vehicles and purchase the cheaper version, while simultaneously begin exporting those same vehicles into the home market from where the technology originated. Today, with a double-digit...

Martha Ann Lillard, the last U.S. polio patient who used an iron lung to survive, has died at age 78. The Shawnee, Okla., resident first experienced symptoms of the disease on her fifth birthday in 1953, she told KFOR 8 days before her death. “I woke up and it was sunny outside, and I started to sit up, and my neck was killing me,” she said. “I couldn’t lift my head off the pillow.” “After four days, I went unconscious. I couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t move my arms or legs,” she explains. Lillard had contracted polio — just two years...

Recently in the news, Dr. Jill Biden shared she was afraid that her husband Joe Biden had a stroke during the June 27, 2024 presidential debate between then President Biden and Republican nominee and now President Donald Trump. Immediately after the debate, Jill said, looking at her husband in the eye while on national TV, “Joe, you did such a great job, you answered every question; you knew all the facts.” Then she turned to the partisan crowd and said, “What did Trump do? He lied.” Here we are two years later and who is the liar? It’s Jill Biden,...

For four years, Russia has bet on outlasting Ukraine in a war of attrition. Now, as Kyiv’s drones inflict growing damage on both Russia’s army and oil industry, Moscow is finding out that time isn’t necessarily on its side. Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invasion force is making ever-smaller gains at the front line, its losses exceed recruitment, and it is struggling to adapt to a Ukrainian drone campaign pounding its supply routes to its forward positions. Meanwhile, Ukraine’s stretched army hasn’t buckled as Russia hoped and is even pushing back the invaders in places with small counterattacks. Its increasingly capable...
