Mohamed Soltan, the son of antisemitic senior Muslim Brotherhood official Salah Soltan, served as a 'media activist' for a Brotherhood-affiliated protest movement ... In a 2021 article on a since-deleted Substack account, the left-wing Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed defended a man he described as his "friend" after he was jailed for funding the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood. The man, Mohamed Soltan, is the son of a senior Muslim Brotherhood official who called to kill "those Zionists" and argued for "obliterating America." The October 2021 article, headlined "The hypocrisy of police rejecting vaccine requirements," warned of the "bluntest form of government...

Holly Burns and about a dozen other girls walked away from a cross-country race in Washington on Tuesday. They refused to compete against a male athlete who had started the season racing on the boys’ team. When the race began, half of the girls competing, and the male athlete, took off running. Burns and the other half of the girls slowly walked forward past the starting line, and then into the nearby tree line, sacrificing one of their high school competitions. Footage of the protest has since gone viral across social media, igniting widespread awareness for one of the trans...

Virginians are being asked to write abortion into the Bill of Rights of their state constitution. The amendment's mild-sounding language hides a sweeping legal standard that would put existing protections for preborn children and their mothers at risk. The so-called Right to Reproductive Freedom Amendment will appear as Ballot Question 1 on the November 3 ballot. The General Assembly approved it twice, in 2025 and again in January 2026, and Gov. Abigail Spanberger signed the legislation sending it to voters in February. If it passes, it takes effect January 1, 2027. Key Takeaways: * The Virginia ballot amendment would group...

Major banks closed accounts and refused credit to MAGA merchants, pro-life causes, religious groups, conservative organizations and sectors disfavored by the Biden administration, such as firearms, oil and gas, and private prisons, a bombshell report from the federal banking regulator has found. The Debanking Review by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) investigated 100,000 complaints and scrutinized 50,000 internal bank records to reveal how customers were “debanked” based purely on their political, social, or religious beliefs. JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Citibank, Wells Fargo, U.S. Bank, Capital One, PNC, TD Bank, and BMO Bank were found to...

Huawei, the Chinese telecom giant banned in the U.S. and Europe, seeks to strengthen ties with Mexico. In recent months, Mexico’s secretary of Science and Technology, secretary of Energy, Anti-Corruption secretary and members of the Mexican Senate have held key meetings with senior executives from the Chinese firm. The new head of Huawei Mexico, David Tao, has made it clear that the company wants to deepen and expand their operations in telecommunications, power grids and artificial intelligence. During the last two decades, Huawei has generated bipartisan concern in America. The company has been charged with allegations including espionage, racketeering and...

President Donald Trump said Tuesday that black voters would not vote for Michigan Democrat Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed because the candidate mocks and disrespects them. “Why would black people vote for Mohammed El-Sayed when he openly scorns them, mocks them, and disrespects them? THEY WON’T! President DJT,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. Trump’s statement comes as El-Sayed faces complaints from some black voters and community leaders about his outreach ahead of the election against Republican Mike Rogers.

September brought little relief to the accelerating cost of living, as consumer prices increased again and kept the inflation rate well above the Federal Reserve’s goal. The consumer price index, a broad measure of goods and services costs across the U.S. economy, rose a seasonally adjusted 0.6% for the month, putting the 12-month rate at 3.7%, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported Wednesday. Economists surveyed by Dow Jones expected respective gains of 0.6% and 3.6%. Stripping out volatile food and energy costs, so-called core CPI rose 0.3% for the month and was up 2.6% on an annual basis, compared to...

We finally had our first hurricane this season in the North Atlantic region: Isaias. Isaias formed on October 7 as a tropical storm in the Gulf of America, and made landfall as a Category 1 hurricane on October 10 near Destin, Florida. Paul Homewood of Not a Lot of People Know That collects the relevant data in a post from October 11. Homewood notes that Isaias represents the latest ever first hurricane for the North Atlantic, at least since the satellite era (1966) has provided full data: Isaiah was the first Atlantic hurricane of the season, the latest on record....

The Treasury Department announced more than $1.21 billion in penalties against Bank of America, the second-largest bank in the U.S., on Tuesday for anti-money laundering and sanctions violations. The enforcement actions include the largest fine in the history of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) and the third-largest penalty in Treasury history. According to Treasury, Bank of America prioritized revenue while minimizing compliance resources, despite mounting warning signs. Treasury said Bank of America failed to report more than $5 billion in suspicious transactions on time, including activity indicative of Chinese money laundering networks. The bank also processed...

🇺🇸Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem🇮🇱 (10/14/26)[Prayer]Personalities Psalm 52[a] For the director of music. A maskil[b] of David. When Doeg the Edomite had gone to Saul and told him: “David has gone to the house of Ahimelek.”1 Why do you boast of evil, you mighty hero? Why do you boast all day long, you who are a disgrace in the eyes of God? 2 You who practice deceit, your tongue plots destruction; it is like a sharpened razor. 3 You love evil rather than good, falsehood rather than speaking the truth.[c] 4 You love every harmful word, you deceitful tongue!...

The Ten Ugly Faces of Anthony Fauci One of the Most Heinous Men in Medical History ...This is my piece detailing the Ten Ugly Faces of Tony Fauci that serve as the foundation of the prosecution of one of the most heinous men in medical history... Dr. Anthony Stephen Fauci has had everything the American establishment could bestow upon a bureaucrat: magazine covers, prayer candles, presidential medals, the highest salary in the federal government, a record pension, and finally a sweeping presidential pardon. What Tony Fauci has never had is you, the jury. In my new book, Why Fauci MUST...

"Every word of God is tested [pure, flawless]" (Prov. 30:5). God’s Word is without error. Inerrancy is a term that conveys the belief that the original writings of Scripture are wholly true in everything they teach— whether doctrine, history, science, geography, geology, or any other discipline or knowledge. It also applies to accurate copies of those original writings. Inerrancy is an unpopular concept with some people because they believe it isn't really important. But consider the implications. No Christian would deny that our relationship to Jesus Christ is of utmost importance. How can we know Him except as He is...

These are not the hard-working economic immigrants of old; this is a whole new type of immigrant, and America must address the change soon. In Wednesday’s Pluralism Is Broken, I argued that pluralism only works when cultural differences operate within a shared civic framework. Multiculturalism reverses that premise by asking America to accommodate differences without requiring assimilation. When immigration policy no longer reinforces a common framework—and when we become unwilling to examine its consequences—we are not preserving pluralism; we have sown the seeds of our own destruction. The central question is whether a society committed to individual liberty can remain...

It may seem logical that if the United States stops exporting diesel, more fuel will stay here and prices will fall. But more diesel in the United States does not necessarily mean lower prices at the pump, especially when the United States is not facing a shortage of diesel. If refiners cannot export or economically store surplus diesel, some could reduce production, which tightens supplies, puts upward pressure on fuel prices and weakens U.S. energy security. 1. Export bans reduce fuel production Today, U.S. refineries are producing about 5.3 million barrels of distillate fuel per day, while domestic demand averages...

The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), the federal reform initiative launched by President Donald Trump and initially associated with billionaire Elon Musk, is back in the national spotlight after the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to review a legal dispute over access to its government records. The Supreme Court granted the Trump administration's petition on Tuesday, October 13, 2026, opening another chapter in a legal battle that could determine how much information the public can obtain about DOGE's operations. The decision comes months after DOGE's temporary organization formally ended and amid growing questions about its reported federal spending cuts, workforce reductions,...

The Fayette County Council candidate told viewers she would 'fire all Republicans' and declared 'we have guns too' A Democrat running for county council in eastern Indiana was ridiculed Tuesday after critics claimed she appeared "s--- faced" and slurred her way through attacks on Republicans during a televised candidate forum. During the forum, Fayette County Council candidate Jaime West said she would "fire all Republicans" if elected, railed against "MAGAs" she called "racist" and unintelligent and alleged that a sheriff’s nephew had threatened to kill her. Asked for a final message to voters, West responded: "We have guns too." "This...

While SpaceX's most recent earnings report barely mentions X -- the social media platform previously known as Twitter -- it is clear that the company's advertising revenue has fallen hundreds of millions of dollars since Elon Musk took over in 2022. Tucked into SpaceX’s “AI Segment” category, X’s second-quarter ad earnings were $367 million between April and June of this year. While this number is an improvement over the previous quarter ($343 million), prior to SpaceX becoming a publicly traded company, it marks an $83 million year-over-year decline. X's current quarterly ad revenue has dropped even more drastically compared...
