  • George Soros: Everyone Knows the Name - Nobody Knows What He's Done

    This is the best video addressing George Soros that I've personally seen. It's concise, and addresses the motivations for how Soros has approached the world and targeted countries and societies. I'm sure all of this has been published many times, and covered in other videos, but this hits all of the major points in a relatively short video I if you have the time I would highly recommend it. As a short summary of the content, Soros studied Karl Popper (an assimilated Jew who was a philosopher, psychologist, social critic, and is best known for his rejection of inductivism (a...

    The world’s top maritime piracy observer said incidents off the coast of Somalia are on the rise again after a pair of fresh attacks this week — as two major regional conflicts stretch naval forces in the area thin.

  • Mamdani, the DSA and the Teamsters are lining up against Amazon in NYC — here’s how it could backfire spectacularly

    NY Post ^ | 8/21/26 | Charles Gasparino
    A lot of New Yorkers seem to appreciate Amazon’s services – that is, unless you’re talking about Mayor Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic Socialists of America and a seemingly unlikely player in this clown show, the Teamsters, On The Money has learned. There’s a good chance, I am told, that the Seattle-based e-tailing giant pulls out of New York if this gang of three (or shall we call them the three stooges) has its way and the City Council passes a local ordinance that would ban the online retailer and similar businesses from using subcontractors for its deliveries. First, let’s be...
  • Canada rejects US terms for trade deal as 50 percent tariffs take effect

    Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney pulled his country’s negotiators from trade talks with the U.S. on Friday evening, just hours before the Trump administration’s new round of tariffs were set to go into effect. This decision followed weeks of intense negotiations between the two nations over President Trump’s proposed 50 percent tariffs on over $20 billion worth of Canadian goods. These new tariffs — which were originally scheduled to go into effect on Wednesday — would impact a range of goods, including wine, hockey sticks, cement, plywood and more. The prime minister has said these new policies are in “direct...

    Embattled New York City Democratic Socialists of America Co-Chair Gustavo Gordillo is a deadbeat tenant facing eviction after stiffing his landlord out of months of rent, The Post has learned. Gordillo, 38, the privileged son of a Florida construction magnate, is being sued in Brooklyn housing court after skipping out on three rent payments of $2,500 for a Crown Heights apartment he leased while the $1.5 million townhouse gifted to him by his rich daddy underwent renovations, according to court filings. The Yale University-educated sculptor moved into the “stunning” one-bedroom pad on Eastern Parkway in May 2025, according to court...

    U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee has warned militant Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank not to steal property owned by Palestinian ​Americans, describing such behavior as "a violation of God's law". Huckabee, a Baptist minister and longtime supporter of Israel's settlements, told Reuters in an interview ‌that settlers found to have taken part in a siege of homes in the West Bank village of Qusra, including one belonging to Palestinian American Loui Ridi, could be punished with U.S. sanctions. Israeli settlers began encircling homes in Qusra on August 9, in what rights groups said was an attempt to...

    On Friday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Source,” U.S. Senate candidate Rep. Seth Moulton (D-MA) said that, with his walkback of his previous criticism of biological men in women’s sports, “the point is that we ought to be fighting forward on this. Where’s our legislation to enshrine protections into law so that they actually can be confident that they will have the healthcare that they need when the Trump administration is trying to take it away? Where is our legislation to enshrine protections into law so that they can’t get fired for just who they are or what they wear to...

    California Assemblyman Dr. Corey Jackson (D-Moreno Valley), who received his Masters in Social Work, founded and directs the nonprofit Center Against Racism and Trauma (CART), which has been tax-exempt since February 2022. “California quietly boosted taxpayer funding for a nonprofit founded by a sitting Assemblyman from $250,000 to $6 MILLION—a 2,300% increase. Its latest IRS return reports zero employees, zero volunteers and only $57,667 in annual expenses,” White House Correspondent and War Room co-host Natalie Winters claimed Thursday on X

    Auto racing has been a part of American culture as long as I can remember, but I never recall racing having been a part of the White House before. At least not until this summer, when on July 13, an event that was billed as a “Grand Prix Showcase” played out on the narrow strip of pavement between the West Wing and the Eisenhower Executive Office Building. Reigning IndyCar champion Alex Palou, 2026 Indianapolis 500 winner Felix Rosenqvist, and David Malukas stood alongside Roger Penske, the team owner and businessman who bought IndyCar and the Indianapolis Motor Speedway outright in...

    Outgoing British Prime Minister Keir Starmer had formerly headed the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) which had offered a pass to the Muslim sex grooming gangs who had trafficked and raped as many as 250,000 women and girls in the UK. Starmer had initially refused to launch a national inquiry into the grooming gangs, claiming that they were merely a local matter, before finally giving in to political pressure. “In a number of cases presented to us, particularly in cases involving groups, there’s clearly an issue of ethnicity that has to be understood and addressed,” Starmer awkwardly admitted. “The CPS, under...

    SEATTLE - Starbucks has filed a notice with the state announcing details on a layoff of more than 200 corporate employees at its headquarters in SoDo. According to economics experts, the workforce reduction stems from two distinct groups within the company. Who's impacted by the layoffs What we know: Joseph Phillips, Professor of Economics at Seattle University, says the first group includes around 120 information technology workers who chose not to relocate to Starbucks' new corporate office in Nashville. He says the second group is made up of employees who worked on Starbucks' store design.

    A Texas appeals court on Friday delivered a significant victory to Infowars founder Alex Jones, drastically reducing the massive $50 million judgment against him in one of the Sandy Hook defamation cases. The Texas Third Court of Appeals unanimously ruled that the trial court abused its discretion by allowing parents Neil Heslin and Scarlett Lewis to exceed the state’s strict statutory cap on punitive (exemplary) damages. The court ordered the punitive damages reduced from roughly $45.2 million down to $1.5 million, $750,000 for each parent, in line with Texas law, according to Reuters. Jones still faces the roughly $4.1 million...

    ActBlue co-founder Matt DeBergalis invoked his Fifth Amendment rights Thursday during a congressional deposition examining whether the Democratic fundraising platform’s fraud safeguards allowed illegal foreign donations to enter U.S. elections. DeBergalis appeared behind closed doors before investigators from the House Administration, Oversight and Judiciary committees. The deposition lasted less than 30 minutes, according to Fox News Digital. The three Republican-led committees are jointly investigating ActBlue, a major fundraising platform that has processed billions of dollars for Democratic candidates and liberal organizations. Invoking the Fifth Amendment is a constitutional right and does not establish wrongdoing. ActBlue has repeatedly denied violating campaign...

    Earlier Friday, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said in public remarks that he believes it would be 'better to end the war today while we are in a position of strength and dignity.' Pezeshkian claimed that Tehran made zero 'concessions' to the US when it signed a memorandum of understanding with Trump in June. However, Iranians are dealing with a worsening cost of living crisis due to the country's inability to export oil, The Financial Times reported. Trump warned Thursday he will launch a campaign to crush Iran's economy and threatened 'tremendous' punishment on any country that does business with Tehran....

    Folks, Somehow, the green dildo has returned. If you think back to pretty much a year ago, you'll remember that there was an onslaught of green dildos being thrown onto WNBA courts mid-game. It was stopping the action every time. The craze then spread to the NFL where fans were throwing the sex toys onto the field, but it didn't really have the same effect. People ran the bit into the ground very quickly and it was no longer funny.

    Before 1976, it was assumed by wildlife managers that hunting bears made the bear population more cautious of humans and reduced human/bear conflicts. In 1975, the Director of the Federal Fish and Wildlife Service stated that the taking of grizzly bears should be of two types.The taking of nuisance bears; andLimited sport hunting to create an adequate fear of man. From the Federal Register, VOL. 40, NO. 145 — Monday, July 28, 1975 p. 31735: “In a seasonal sport hunt, bears are exposed to relatively large numbers of humans for a limited period of time, and so learn to avoid...

    A decade after Natalie Murphy was sentenced to prison for the death of her boyfriend in Juneau County, she is asking Gov. Tony Evers to shorten her sentence. Murphy, now 33, was one of 12 people who appeared before Wisconsin’s new Commutation Advisory Board Friday as the state held its first commutation hearings in decades. Murphy was 21 when she was arrested on Feb. 12, 2015, after Andrew Dammen was shot and killed inside an apartment in Necedah. Murphy was initially charged with first-degree intentional homicide. She was ultimately convicted of first-degree reckless homicide and second-degree recklessly endangering safety. In...
