DHS Secretary Kristi Noem issued a nationwide terrorism alert for America, specifically citing low-level cyber attacks as a potential response. “The ongoing Iran conflict is causing a heightened threat environment in the United States,” the press release reads. “Low-level cyber attacks against US networks by pro-Iranian hacktivists are likely, and cyber actors affiliated with the Iranian government may conduct attacks against US networks. Iran also has a long-standing commitment to target US Government officials it views as responsible for the death of an Iranian military commander killed in January 2020. The likelihood of violent extremists in the Homeland independently mobilizing...

VIDEOIsrael seems to have achieved a double header in Tehran in the wake of the big bombs dropped by the USA on the Iranian Nuke facilities. The headquarters of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards has been bombed AND the entrance to the Evin political prison has been destroyed as well. Will there be a massive prison escape as a result? This would be a very good time for the guards at that prison to call in sick.Have you noticed that "EVIN" is just one letter away from from being "EVIL?"

American Democrats and leftists in general were already divided and uncertain over who to support in the various Middle East conflicts. But when he ordered the bombing of nuclear facilities in Iran, President Trump kicked a proverbial hornets’ nest of progressive outrage – and confusion. Reactions from the left range from wholehearted support to calls for impeachment and accusations of war crimes – and not everyone seems to hold the same position they did just days ago. Israel vs Iran – Democrats ‘All Over the Map’ Well before the fighting broke out between Israel and Iran, everyone seemed to have...

Following the US bombing of its nuclear sites, Iran has threatened to close the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global oil chokepoint. Rather than direct retaliation on the Iranian mainland, the US should counter this threat by seizing Kharg Island, the terminal through which 90% of Iran’s oil is exported. Additionally, the US should issue an ultimatum to Iran’s two navies—the IRGC’s coastal patrol and the regular blue-water navy to either dock and surrender or be sunk, thus ensuring freedom of navigation without a broader, destructive war on Iranian soil.

The State of Massachusetts' "emergency shelter" program spends around $180,000 per family per year on shelter, food, education, legal aid, and case management. The median household income per family per year in the state is around $100,000. Asked why the cost of sustaining families on welfare is so much higher than what working families have to live on Gov. Maura Healey (D) explained "working families have to make their own decisions on where to live and what to eat. They don't need government workers to make these decisions for them. So they don't have case managers. The majority of the...

Following US strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities, Russian official Dmitry Medvedev hinted that countries like Russia or North Korea might supply Iran with nuclear warheads directly. This threat should be met with a firm US response based on strategic brinksmanship. If Russia or its allies provide nuclear weapons to Iran, a state that has serially violated the Non-Proliferation Treaty, President Trump should make it clear that the United States will, in turn, provide nuclear weapons or station intermediate-range nuclear missiles in Russia’s own neighboring countries, such as Ukraine, Poland, or Kazakhstan, to re-establish deterrence.

Vice President JD Vance on the remarkable tactical precision of the Iranian strike: VIDEO AT LINK............. "These guys flew from Missouri. They didn't land a single time. They dropped 30,000 pound bombs on a target the size of a of a washing machine, and then got back home safely without ever landing in the Middle East... Whatever our politics, we should be proud of what these guys accomplished."

That didn’t take long. As The New York Times reported, a federal judge ordered the Trump administration on Friday to release pro-Hamas student activist Mahmoud Khalil on bail. At this time, he is the only ‘major’ anti-Israel agitator demonstrator in America remaining in confinement. ..... Snip..... Mahmoud wants you to know that he is the real victim here. This toxic man is back out in the streets calling for a global intifada. This is pure insanity.

This is madness. Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy sends a twitter message as if he’s ordering coffee from the guy down the street, telling NATO members not to forget to send him his $40 billion in “budgetary support.”[SOURCE]Budgetary support means we pay for the operational cost of Ukraine government, including govt payrolls, pensions, healthcare services, welfare and social services for the people in Ukraine.The crazy thing is, unless Trump stops it, our congress will give it to him. And even if Trump tries to stop it, congress will demand the payment as part of their appropriations process.Maybe it’s just me, but...

There is an shocking amount of misinformation and misunderstanding going on right now regarding Iran and Israel, and what brought us to this situation. We need to unpack this and be brutally honest as this is much bigger than you think and affects literally the whole world.You need to sit down and read this the entire way through and share widely — because this affects your life whether you want to admit it or not.To understand what is going on, we need to go back 46 years, to 1979, when Ruholla Khomeini established the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) during...

After Russia and China: North Korea also announced that it strongly condemns the US attacks on Iran. Birds of a feather flock together 🇮🇱🇺🇸 vs🇷🇺🇨🇳🇰🇵 https://t.me/beholdisraelchannel/58506

The idea that Iran’s hostility toward Israel is driven by a “land dispute” is a gross oversimplification. Iran has no border with Israel, so the conflict has nothing to do with territorial claims. Instead, Iran’s animosity toward Israel is rooted in a deep ideological and religious hatred, one that spills over into its relationships with Palestinians. The issue isn’t about land—it’s about religious and ethnic bigotry. Iran’s obsession with destroying Israel and its treatment of Palestinians is more about an anti-Western, anti-Semitic agenda than any genuine desire to improve the lives of Arab Palestinians. Iran’s own behavior toward its Arab...

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi was fortunate enough to be out of country on Saturday night during the US strikes on the Iranian nuclear sites. On Saturday night the United States military under the direction of President Donald J. Trump bombed three nuclear facilities in Iran in Operation Midnight Hammer. The US dropped 14 bunker busting bombs on Iran’s largest nuclear site in Fordow. It was the largest ever attack by B-2 stealth bombers by the United States. It was also the longest flight the bombers have made since 2001. The US strike involved more than 125 US aircraft. Menu...

Preston Damsky is a law student at the University of Florida. He is also a white nationalist and antisemite. Last fall, he took a seminar taught by a federal judge on “originalism,” the legal theory favored by many conservatives that seeks to interpret the Constitution based on its meaning when it was adopted. In his capstone paper for the class, Mr. Damsky argued that the framers had intended for the phrase “We the People,” in the Constitution’s preamble, to refer exclusively to white people. From there, he argued for the removal of voting rights protections for nonwhites, and for the...

“America can’t do a damn thing against us,” Ayatollah Khomeini bragged while holding our hostages. The Carter administration had undermined the Shah’s government in favor of the Islamists who seized power and then prevented the embassy’s Marine guards from defending the facility and the people inside against the Muslim ‘student’ groups who claimed to be coming in peace. The “peaceful” student activists took over our embassy and held our people hostage. Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei taunted President Trump with the same slogan in June after being asked to give up Iran’s nuclear weapons program. “Our response to the US nonsense...
