“We have a moral imperative to place the needs of the world above... our own survival” In every election cycle there is a speech that throws the stakes into painful clarity. In the 2026 election cycle, at least for Jews, that speech came from Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel, the last Jewish Democrat holdout in the state, who had skipped the party’s convention because she didn’t feel safe, but unlike Mallory McMorrow, who had also faced threats because of her Jewish daughter, and Haley Stevens, hadn’t gotten on board with the Abdul El-Sayed campaign and the alliance of Marxists and...

The incident occurred on the evening of Aug. 29 when a golfer at San Joaquin Golf Course confronted a man who had reportedly run across the course, according to investigators with the Irvine Police Department. “The golfer tried to get away in his golf cart, but the suspect caught up, took a golf club from the cart, and struck the golfer in the head,” investigators said. “The suspect then fled the area.”

Tucker Carlson praised Dr. Abdul El-Sayed, the Democratic Senate nominee in Michigan, calling the candidate’s agenda “literally Trumpian.”El-Sayed prevailed in last month’s Democratic primary over Rep. Haley Stevens, despite being outspent nine-to-one, thanks in large part to more than $30 million in ad buys from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee. He has pledged to oppose continued U.S. aid to Israel.El-Sayed’s Republican opponent is former Rep. Mike Rogers, who chaired the House Intelligence Committee and has been a fervent supporter of Israel. Given Americans’ increasingly negative views of Israel, Rogers’ campaign is reportedly concerned about AIPAC spending money on its...

In the summer of 2021, as the fight over Harvard’s admission practices moved toward the Supreme Court, a peculiar new term began surfacing in op-eds, DEI training decks, and cable news panels: “white adjacent.” The phrase sounded almost clinical, like a term of art borrowed from sociology. In practice, it did something far more consequential: it gave the progressive racial justice apparatus a way to explain away an inconvenient fact. Asian Americans, by nearly every measure of educational and economic development, were outperforming the racial group that critical race theory holds up as the chief beneficiary of American structural power—in...

President Donald Trump is privately discussing with senior aides whether to declare the U.S. war with Iran over, even as the Pentagon extends troop deployments into 2027 and the conflict continues to disrupt shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, The Wall Street Journal reported.The apparent contradiction underscores the uncertainty surrounding the administration's strategy. Trump has told advisers he favors declaring an end to the war and believes the combination of economic pressure and U.S. military dominance has put Washington in a winning position.The Journal reported that Trump has argued Iran's economy is collapsing and that U.S. forces have achieved "almost...

Tucker Carlson basically endorses Abdul El-Sayed for the U.S. Senate He said he would not vote for Mike Rogers at gunpoint, called him a “tool of Israel,” and praised El-Sayed for “taking on” AIPAC. Tucker and Saagar Enjeti agreed that El-Sayed is running an “America First” campaign and said they would bet on him to win. Then Tucker said no one should be further from a position of power than Mike Rogers. https://x.com/JustinUSA/status/2095321352630636999

Hundreds of North Sea workers are still too heavy for offshore helicopter travel less than two months before new rules come into force, BBC Scotland has learned. From November they should weigh no more than 19st 7Ib (124.7kg) in their clothing and footwear, so they can be winched to safety in an emergency. When the plans were announced by industry body Offshore Energies UK (OEUK) last year, they said more than 2,200 workers were above that limit. New figures suggest up to 800 still exceed it. Jobs could be lost as a result, and an occupational health expert said some...

America is surging ahead while Canada stagnates, and that growing asymmetry—not trade alone—is driving the acrimony between two longtime allies. At first glance, the current American-Canadian trade “war” is absurd. We are neighbors with a long history of close friendship, speak the same language (for the most part), and spring from the same British civilization. Nearly one million Canadians reside in the United States. Given the two countries’ natural affinities, Canadians are nearly indistinguishable from Americans. Both sides have reasonable grievances over trade policy. Americans don’t like Canada’s perennial trade surpluses of more than $50 billion in a supposedly free-trade...

A federal lawsuit claims the Waukesha County Sheriff’s Office used the Flock cameras without a legitimate government purpose and in retaliation against the vet for exercising his First Amendment right. {...} Jones was subsequently arrested "for resisting and obstructing," according to a federal lawsuit he filed against the arresting officers and police department. But after being held in custody for five hours, he was released with no citations or criminal charges. An internal post-arrest memorandum reviewed by Reason revealed that Shayhorn's supervisor informed him shortly after the arrest that he'd, in fact, illegally stopped Jones, and he therefore could not...

The "DSA Explorer," created by Utah software engineer and rightwing personality Jennica Pounds, purports to connect various groups and activists on the political left. A Utah software engineer who was recently hired by the Pentagon is under fire after unveiling a database she built to track people with ties to the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA). Why it matters: Critics say the "DSA Explorer" is an inappropriate use of sensitive political information by a federal employee at best — and amounts to government spying on U.S. citizens at worst. The other side: Jennica Pounds, the rightwing Utah influencer and data...

Writer and career leftist feminist activist Gloria Steinem died Wednesday. She was 92.The death of the co-founder of Ms. Magazine and leader of the Women’s Action Alliance was confirmed through her foundation’s social media pages.

We've been seeing a lot of polling numbers lately as we get closer to the midterms. Normally, the advantage goes to the political party out of power. But there are a variety of reasons to think positively about the question if you are a Republican.

During his campaign for office last fall, our new Mayor Zohran Mamdani promised to make groceries “affordable” for New Yorkers; but he provided few specifics. Some specifics then emerged in late July, when Mamdani issued a big press release on his proposed public grocery store project. We learned that there are plans for five municipally-owned stores — one in each borough of the City — and that the groceries these stores will sell, or at least a “core basket” of them, will be “30% cheaper.” We know that the groceries will be “30% cheaper” because the Mayor’s press release says...

Former White House Chief of Staff and former Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel told the hosts of MS NOW's "Morning Joe" on Monday that the Democratic Party is "not open" to a takeover by self-identifying socialist candidates. "There is a pragmatic and a progressive wing of the party," Emanuel said. "We both believe that the system is rigged against families that live paycheck-to-paycheck and try to make ends meet and who work hard, trying to raise their kids to know right from wrong and do the hard work. That's where the party's soul is." "Some believe in Medicare For All," he...

Lucifer, the "Master Politician" and "Original Fascist", knows all too well how the "game" is to be played. He has been practicing his demonic tactics and observing humanity for 6000 years (John 8:44). He has been patiently waiting for the precise moment to bring forth his master plan and global godless unity. Lucifer's evil genius and perverted perception give him the tactical insight to pull the strings of humanity and to move them along to serve his godless purpose and eventually achieve his master design. That plan is the global worship of himself (2 Thess. 2:3-4; Rev. 13:4, 8, 12)...

Has there ever been a governor, or any public official, with a record as good as Ron DeSantis’s? Not that I know of. What he has accomplished in Florida seems almost incredible; in fact, if he hadn’t done it, a lot of people wouldn’t have thought it possible. Here, he reviews some of his administration’s signal accomplishments while taking a left-wing heckler in stride: 🚨 JUST IN: Gov. Ron DeSantis was heckled mid-speech as he touted Florida cutting its budget four years running, more residents than New York, the nation’s lowest per-capita taxes, 52% of state debt paid off and...

The First Amendment protects both freedom of speech and freedom of assembly, but those rights do not give activists carte blanche to invade a church and take over the service. Or so I thought. Now, however, a group of activists who did just that has filed a motion to dismiss federal civil rights charges, arguing that its conduct amounted to “pure speech and assembly” protected by the First Amendment. According to the motion, “The Constitution does not contain any exception to free speech in churches.” Such a statement might make sense if the agitators faced charges related to free speech,...
