Statistically, all of the jobs gained since Trump took office have gone to native-born Americans. In Biden's last year in office half of the jobs gained went to immigrants. Secretary of Labor Lori Chavez-DeRemer explained "President Trump promised to focus on improving the opportunities and wages of Americans when he campaigned for the presidency. We are now delivering on that promise. Two million more Americans have jobs that they didn't have while Biden was president." House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) was less enthusiastic about this outcome, pointing out that "President Biden's policies produced a more balanced result. I addition...

TERRORIST CONNECTIONS Not only was Mr. Norquist entangled with the criminal dealings of Jack Abramoff, but documentation shows that he has deep ties to supporters of Hamas and other terrorist organizations that are sworn enemies of the United States and our ally Israel. According to Senate lobbying disclosure records of his now defunct lobbying firm, Janus-Merritt Strategies, around the years 2000 and 2001 Mr. Norquist’s firm represented Abdurahman Alamoudi, who was convicted two years later for his role in a terrorist plot and who is presently serving a 23-year sentence in federal prison. Court documents and a October 15, 2004,...

In news that surprised even the most optimistic observers, Argentina surpassed China in terms of year-on-year economic growth during the first quarter of 2025. While the Asian giant reported an expansion of 5.4%, Argentina achieved a remarkable 5.8% year-on-year, marking a strong recovery after the deep crisis inherited from the Kirchnerist government of Alberto Fernández and Cristina Kirchner. According to official data from INDEC, Argentina's economy expanded in the first three months of the year at a pace that not only surpasses most countries in the region, but also puts the country in the global spotlight. This growth represents the...

When Argentina elected outspoken libertarian Javier Milei, I expected great things from the South American nation. He's a free market, free people kind of guy who took the highest office in a nation that has been plagued with problems. The dude has been compared to Donald Trump, but he's far more of a pro-liberty guy than even The Donald. I've been interested to see what he'd do, and what I've seen so far mostly looks good. This, though, blows everything else out of the water. President of Argentina Javier Milei signed a decree Wednesday broadening gun rights in the country...

<p>The quote, drawn from the biblical Book of Numbers, held deep symbolic weight. While seemingly cryptic at the time, it now appears to have foreshadowed the name and spirit of the military campaign that would unfold just hours later: Operation “Im K’Lavi” “With a Lion’s Heart.” The strikes began during the night, targeting Iranian strategic sites, most notably the Natanz nuclear facility, in a coordinated and extensive air assault.</p>

Source: Unleashed.news If China secures the CopiaPort-E project, it would turbocharge Beijing’s trade in South America—not only enabling CHINAMAX megaships, but allowing all shipping to completely bypass U.S.-controlled chokepoints and dominate hemispheric commerce virtually overnight. A geopolitical storm is brewing on the western edge of South America—and the United States cannot afford to look away. At the heart of it all lies a deep-water mega-port project in Chile’s Atacama Desert: CopiaPort-E, a port so naturally engineered by geography itself that it could become either America’s greatest commercial and strategic opportunity, or China’s most dangerous economic beachhead south of our border....

Sacyr Vallehermoso, a Madrid based Spanish construction firm, has expressed interest to lead the construction of the Agua Negra tunnel, a project that aims to build a highway that crosses over the Chile-Argentina border, connecting the San Juan province in Argentina to Coquimbo in Chile. The project’s high profile comes from its ambitiousness. The tunnel in question is planned to go for nearly 8.6 miles and will be built in complicated conditions under the Andean mountains. It comes as part of a Mercosur integration process, and will be part of the highway that traverses the continent, from Coquimbo in Chile...

Earlier this month, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had a high-profile meeting with his Hungarian counterpart, Viktor Orbán, in Budapest. Argentina’s libertarian president, Javier Milei, has called Orbán his “comrade in this fight for the ideas of freedom,” and Italy’s Giorgia Meloni is Orbán’s “Christian sister.” Last year, Donald Trump hosted the Hungarian leader three times at Mar-a-Lago. How did this one country in Europe become a beacon for right-wing ideas—and leaders—around the world? Once upon a time, Hungary was the poster child of “regime change”—the peaceful transition from communism to democracy. The process was indeed peaceful. But was it...

Radical Islam in Latin America By Chris Zambelis In the wake of the September 11 attacks, the possibility of al-Qaeda infiltrating Latin America became a priority for U.S. intelligence and law enforcement officials. However, the most publicized incidents of radical Islamist activity in Latin America have not been linked to al-Qaeda but instead to the Lebanese Shi’ite Hezbollah, which is ideologically and politically close to Iran. These include the March 1992 bombing of the Israeli Embassy in Buenos Aires, Argentina and the July 1994 attack against the Argentine-Israeli Mutual Association (AIMA), also in the Argentine capital, allegedly in retaliation for...

The National Jewish Monthly, Volume 77, B'nai B'rith., 1962, p. 1 Review Of The Month Anti Semitism at UN Arab delegates spouted the most vicious kind of anti-Semitism ever heard in the halls of the United Nations during a debate on the Arab refugee issue in the General Assembly's special political committee. The worst statement was made by Ahmad Shukairy, of Saudi Arabia. He said, Argentina "should be saluted" because of its violently anti-Jewish youth organization, Tacuara, and added: "Tacuara has proclaimed a crusade... we propose that Tacuara be adopted by the United Nations." This was too much even for...

Argentina's Supreme Court has found dozens of boxes filled with Nazi material among its archives in its basement. The 83 boxes hold documents including postcards, photographs and notebooks, as well as propaganda material, the court said on Sunday.

The court has invited Argentina's Holocaust Museum to help document and preserve the materials. Experts will also examine them for...
