Tech guru Elon Musk just hit a major milestone by solidifying his status as the world’s first trillionaire. And naturally, leftists are in total meltdown mode. The freak out started on Friday morning, shortly after Musk’s SpaceX began trading at $150 a share, a figure above its listing price of $135. According to Fox Business, “Combined with his holdings in electric vehicle maker Tesla, as well as other investments and assets, Musk’s net worth is now estimated at about $1.1 trillion.” Musk’s major achievement was apparently too much for leftists. Across the interwebs, these emotionally fragile figures proceeded to throw...

This is a video believed to be taken in or near Baton Rougue, LA. It's absolutely disgusting that a human can do this to others. It's people like this that foment, and encourage hate against whites that led to the death of Metcalf and ruining two families. White hate is a nation wide epidemic and it must stop or we will soon have vigilantes looking for people like this. Our "hate crime" laws must be enforced against this scholar and all other scholars. https://www.facebook.com/reel/1358317226168755

Elon just created 4,400 millionaires in a single day. 400 of them are now worth over $100 million. These aren't VCs. They're SpaceX employees, and the list includes welders, technicians, and cafeteria staff, because for two decades the company paid every level of the workforce in stock instead of higher salaries. Juan Hernandez immigrated from Mexico and took a $28 an hour contractor welding job in 2015. He says he didn't even know what SpaceX was. The company gave him a $10,000 equity grant and let him buy more shares through payroll deductions. That stake is now worth $880,000. Trevor...

🇮🇪⚔️ An armed Irish group has issued a direct warning to politicians: “You have flooded our communities with military-age migrant men. We will not sit back and watch our culture and religion destroyed.” The pushback has begun. Ireland is waking up.

Jennifer Byrne, the mother of the two kids, said the incident left her children traumatized. "My daughter called me, I'm at work. She was in hysterics, crying, saying, 'Somebody put a gun to us and took all of our money,'" she said.

A volunteer’s ‘SOCIALISM’ bracelet was a hint that New York City’s public turnout campaign for rent-control hearings might not live up to its own rules of neutrality. Against my better judgment and the advice of Oscar Wilde, I let socialism in New York City take up another one of my evenings. This time, I was curious to see a new, taxpayer-funded canvassing machine in action before this month’s crucial decision on Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s campaign promise to freeze the rent on the apartments where about 2.4 million New Yorkers live. Six weeks ago, Mamdani announced the launch of Organize NYC,...

District Attorney Nathan Hochman said a vast majority of claims in the child sexual abuse settlements​ against Los Angeles County were potentially fraudulent, according to court documents filed on Wednesday.

Talk show host Larry Reid has called for Black Americans to consider a “mass exodus” to Africa after Karmelo Anthony was sentenced to prison for the murder of Austin Metcalf, a case that has become another national flashpoint over violence, crime, justice, and public accountability. Anthony was convicted of murder after fatally stabbing Metcalf during a high school track meet in Frisco, Texas, in 2025. A jury sentenced him to 35 years in prison, rejecting the idea that the killing should be excused or minimized as a tragic misunderstanding. The case drew national attention because of the circumstances surrounding Metcalf’s...

ELECTION INTEGRITY: The FBI just raided the Cleveland offices of the Ohio Organizing Collaborative, a Democrat-aligned ballot harvesting NGO. Agents hit staffers' homes statewide with subpoenas & seized devices. The group has a record of fraudulent registrations.

The Supreme Court just issued a unanimous ruling, and the case behind it has everything: Twitter, Saudi dissidents, federal prosecutors, and a fake invoice. The decision came down June 11, 2026, in Abouammo v. United States, No. 25-5146. Justice Elena Kagan wrote for a 9-0 Court, reversing the Ninth Circuit and sending the case back. Legal reporter Katie Buehler summed up the ruling this way: The defendant is Ahmad Abouammo, a former Twitter employee accused of giving confidential information about Saudi dissidents to a high-level Saudi official. According to the Court, the Saudi official wired Abouammo $300,000. Later, after Abouammo...

There is no prison sentence that would satisfy the father of Austin Metcalf. For the first time since the verdict in the death of his son, Jeff Metcalf spoke with CBS News Texas about the sentence, the trial and forgiveness. "A lie is temporary, but the truth lasts forever," Jeff Metcalf said. Austin Metcalf Jeff Metcalf finally had a chance to read the words he's been writing in a notebook to address his son's convicted killer, 19-year-old Karmelo Anthony. On Tuesday, Anthony was found guilty by a Texas jury in the 2025 stabbing death of Austin Metcalf at a track...

Hunter Biden has burst back onto the political scene with a social media spree marked by crude responses to Republican critics and self-deprecating humor about his troubled personal life. As the son of former President Biden, his return to the public eye has quickly drawn the attention of hundreds of thousands of followers on the social platform X in a matter of weeks. After spending most of his father’s presidential term under a cloud of controversy, social media users are flocking to Hunter Biden’s posts about a myriad of subjects — from resources for addicts to cryptocurrency to attacks on...

Chuck Todd reacted to a betting site naming Vice President JD Vance as the most likely successor to President Donald Trump by sharing his own prediction — that the president would pass the torch to someone who shares his last name. We haven’t even survived the 2026 midterms but chatter about the 2028 elections — which will include an all-too-crucial presidential contest — is heating up. A broad range of elected officials, political figures, and celebrities have had their names circulate through the rumor mills, and pollsters have been testing and comparing favorability ratings among different key demographics. Vance, as...

According to Karmelo Anthony’s parents, no one wins when it comes to the verdict on their son. And this is true. A man’s life was taken far too early, and that is something the victim’s family will have to live with forever. No amount of punishment, or in this case, a softball sentence, will bring justice for their son’s actions. And Anthony losing his trial is nothing more than a personal problem. If they are upset their son’s actions cost him 35 years of his life, just imagine how they would feel if someone stabbed their son in the heart....

A group that works to locate missing people in Mexico said they searched for Nancy Guthrie after they received an anonymous tip that she was buried around the border in an unmarked grave. Ramona Guadalupe Ayala Ortiz, head of Buscando Corazones Nogales, said the group received a tip on Wednesday about Guthrie, 84, who was abducted from her Tucson, Arizona, home more than 70 miles north of the border city of Nogales. The group carried out an initial investigation of the area provided by the tipster, where they previously found 25 unmarked graves, but the search for Guthrie came up...

Three more accused associates of a North Texas Antifa terror cell have been indicted on state felony charges for allegedly helping the convicted ringleader evade capture after the July 2025 shooting attack outside an immigration detention center in Alvarado, Texas. A Johnson County grand jury indicted Melanie Lynn Estes, Andrew Tyler Smith and Steven Thomas Reyna in March but the indictment was only recently unsealed. They’re charged with one count each of engaging in organized criminal activity and hindering the prosecution of terrorism. The indictments accuse the three of participating in a criminal conspiracy that helped Antifa member Benjamin Song...
