KYIV, Ukraine (AP) – Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy accused Russia on Sunday of creating a false appearance of honoring an Easter ceasefire, saying Moscow continued to launch attacks overnight after Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a unilateral temporary truce in Ukraine. “As of Easter morning, we can say that the Russian army is trying to create a general impression of a ceasefire, but in some places, it does not abandon individual attempts to advance and inflict losses on Ukraine,” Zelenskyy said in a post on X. Despite Putin´s declaration of an Easter ceasefire on Saturday, Zelenskyy said Ukrainian forces had...

Thirty years ago Sunday, the largest terrorist attack then in American history occurred when a 1,200-pound bomb exploded beneath the World Trade Center in New York City. It was sheer luck that the explosion did not topple the entire skyscraper and kill thousands of people. Politicians solemnly marked the anniversary, but dignitaries made no mention of the FBI’s role in that disaster. ... Osama bin Laden reportedly financed Nosair’s legal defense. ...

Tuesday, during an appearance on “Morning Joe,” long-time MSNBC personality Chris Matthews claimed President Donald Trump has a “weird love” for the enemies of the United States. Matthews said, “We are taking friends and turning them into enemies. We’re turning enemies and making them into friends. It is all 180 craziness in the world. We lash out at our best friends, our people who are becoming our best friends since the Vietnam war. And certainly, with Canada, nobody in America has any animus towards Canada. There is none in America, anywhere. No one has a problem with Canada. And so...

MrBeast is the latest high-profile figure to attack President Trump’s punitive tariffs, which he says will make it “way cheaper” to produce his ethically sourced chocolate brand Feastables overseas. “Ironically because of all the new tariffs it is now way cheaper to make our chocolate bars we sell globally NOT in America,” the YouTuber, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, wrote on X on Tuesday. Donaldson noted it would be cheaper to produce his popular candy abroad because “other countries don’t have a 20%+ tariff on our cogs.” Feastables products are “designed” in Donaldson’s hometown of Greenville, North Carolina, and...

A transgender-identified male was caught on video attacking female Turning Point USA (TPUSA) leaders while they were tabling at the University of Texas in Dallas on Tuesday. Conservative personality and TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk posted footage of the incident to X, showing the male, dressed in women’s clothes, swinging at the students with his bike lock before cycling away: Kirk identified the alleged victims as “Chapter President, Paige Neumann, and her secretary Grace,” writing that the attacker “slammed” the bike lock against Paige’s head “Our Chapter President, Paige Neumann, and her secretary Grace were just assaulted while tabling at the...

Climate crusaders, those sanctimonious shepherds of the earth, are trading their pious protests for outright carnage as attacks against Tesla vehicles ripple across the country — an orgy of liberal cannibalism that’s as predictable as a vegan toting along his own tofu to a barbecue. But setting EVs on fire isn’t the only banner of hypocrisy unfurled lately by eco-warriors — whose extremist ideologies increasingly collide with the real world to reveal their ironic outcomes. This month, officials in the Brazilian city of Belém paved over tens of thousands of acres of protected Amazon rainforest and wetland to build a...

"We're coming after you," Attorney General Pam Bondi warned domestic terrorists attacking Tesla dealers, infrastructure, and owners this week.

Five Tesla cars were set alight in Nevada Tuesday amid growing backlash against Tesla and the work company boss Elon Musk is doing to gut the federal government. The attacks sparked a pretty strong response from U.S. lawmakers Wednesday, with the United States Department of Justice branding the incidents "domestic terrorism" and calling for harsh penalties for anyone caught damaging Tesla property. Tesla cars in the wild have been hit with everything from eggs to dog poop. The attacks led president Donald Trump to claim that individuals caught targeting Tesla dealers and cars would be tried as domestic terrorists, and...

Despite having been handed a few big steaming kettles of FO by the Trump administration and the U.S. military in recent days, Yemen's Houthi rebels still seem to think they are in the FA stage. In the latest laughable claim, a Houthi spokesman, one Yahya Sarea, bragged about a Houthi attack on an American ship - not just any ship, mind you, but the aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman. Needless to say, the attack fizzled.US warships shot down around a dozen drones fired by Yemen's Houthi terrorists 'well before' they could pose a threat, a senior defence official revealed...

A well-funded, highly organized effort is underway to destabilize the United States and crush conservative voices. This is not the organic unrest of grassroots activism. This is a calculated, strategic assault executed by Soros-funded NGOs, their operatives working in concert to disrupt, intimidate, and silence. From violent attacks on Tesla dealerships to the swatting of conservative influencers, from the hijacking of GOP town halls to the doxxing of DOGE employees, this effort bears all the hallmarks of an orchestrated conspiracy. If these actions are coordinated and funded with the explicit goal of suppressing political opposition, they are not examples of...

On Wednesday’s broadcast of “CNN This Morning,” Rep. Seth Moulton (D-MA) responded to the Trump administration stating that attacks on Teslas or Tesla dealerships could be domestic terrorism by stating that President Donald Trump believes that “somehow, having a protest in front of a Tesla dealership is” domestic terrorism and Trump believes “freedom and liberties belong to people who agree with him, and that’s it. … That’s not a view that people who believe in our Constitution share.” Host Audie Cornish asked, “[P]ublic backlash against Elon Musk, the Trump administration is now saying that, like, if you are attacking Teslas...

Rammings, stabbings, shootings, from Belfast to Athens. It's everywhere, and the powers that be refuse to see it as a coordinated campaign. Head in the sand. Isn't life grand. Some footage with audio. Transcript linked below video.

The leader of Ansarallah, Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, threatened “military intervention” on Thursday against America if President Donald Trump goes ahead with his plan to rehabilitate the war-torn Gaza Strip. Houthi, the leader of the Yemeni jihadist terror organization commonly referred to as the Houthis, aggressively opposed Trump’s call to allow Palestinian civilians trapped in Gaza to seek refuge in neighboring countries, instead supporting fellow terrorist organization Hamas, which is the governing body of Gaza, in its quest to continue controlling the territory’s population. Translations of Houthi’s remarks this week indicate that he suggested to Washington to ethnically cleanse Israel, forcing its...

Liberals are taking “Trump Derangement Syndrome” to whole new level, according to one doctor. Some patients are reacting to President Trump’s first weeks in office with reports of depression, anxiety, insomnia, chest pains, panic and fear, said Jackson Hole internist Glenn Burnett — who compared the response to how Americans coped with the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. “It has been extremely intense. The last – the week or two after the election was pretty intense. It then calmed down, and now it’s really back up,” Burnett told political analyst Mark Halperin on his “2 Way Tonight” podcast. “We are...

Two men were stabbed within the city’s subway in separate Wednesday morning attacks as transit violence spilled over into the new year, cops said. A 30-year-old man got into an argument with another commuter on the No. 1 train platform at 110th Street-Cathedral Parkway around 9:30 a.m., when his rival knifed him once in the arm, authorities and sources said. He was taken to Mount Sinai Morningside, where he was listed in stable condition. It’s unclear whether the two men knew each other. The attacker took off and no arrests have been made.

Venezuelan prison gang Tren de Aragua has such a vested interest in entering the United States that they're actually now attacking border agents in the United States and Mexico in order to get into America before Trump takes office. They've got 20 days, and they're going to take advantage as much as they can of Biden's open border. And if border agents get in the way, they're being attacked by the gang. Knife-wielding Tren de Aragua gang members are mobbing border crossings at El Paso, Texas, in an attempt to break into the US — and have said they will...

Emmy-winning investigative journalist Catherine Herridge has released a new bombshell interview with a CIA whistleblower who has claimed the Biden administration has covered up officers’ injuries from direct energy weapons from foreign adversaries. In the interview, Herridge asks a former intelligence officer, “You were attacked?” to which the officer responds, “Yes.” Herridge continued, “You were attacked by an energy weapon?” to which the CIA whistleblower responded, “Yes, a direct energy weapon.” The Emmy-winning investigative journalist further shared, “The intelligence community has attempted to thwart Congressional investigative efforts to uncover the truth at every turn that sounds like a government cover-up.”...

Former Democratic National Committee chairman Howard Dean claimed Thursday on MSNBC’s “All In” that once in office, President Donald Trump will attack free speech, causing the country to be “done for as we know it.” Host Ari Melber said, “I am curious what you see here in the political side of this. These are political efforts to change how people act or change coverage or have some impact.

Former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) is attacking the merits of a House Administration Oversight Subcommittee report, which found she allegedly “tampered with at least one witness” of the January 6 Committee. Cheney provided a lengthy statement to Fox News on Tuesday in response to the report released by subcommittee Chairman Barry Loudermilk (R-GA). Loudermilk wrote, “Based on the evidence obtained by this Subcommittee, numerous federal laws were likely broken by Liz Cheney” and recommended the FBI investigate Cheney’s alleged “violations.”

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) launched hundreds of attacks on Syrian heavy weaponry and suspected chemical weapons facilities in the 24 hours since the fall of the Assad regime, as Israeli soldiers moved into Syrian territory. Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad fled the country for Russia early Sunday morning as rebel forces, including Islamists, began moving into the capital city of Damascus. Russia and Iran were unwilling, or unable, to come to Assad’s aid. Israel soon moved troops into the demilitarized zone between Israel and Syria, on Syrian territory, to deter Syrian rebels from attacking. It also occupied the peak of...
