The F-117 Nighthawk, the world’s first operational stealth aircraft, was officially retired in 2008 but continues to fly regularly. The U.S. Air Force still uses the iconic jet as a cost-effective platform for several key missions. Primarily, it serves as a unique “aggressor” trainer, simulating foreign stealth aircraft like China’s J-20 to prepare U.S. pilots for modern threats.

POTUS pushes for prosecutions of minors as adults in D.C. following attacks by gangs of 'youths' against innocent Americans. President Donald Trump condemned attacks against innocent Americans carried out by lawless teen thugs with virtual impunity in the District of Columbia, as Elon Musk revealed a man recently assaulted was a DOGE team member many speculated to be Edward “Big Balls” Coristine.Trump on Tuesday issued a Truth Social statement calling on children as young as 14-years-old to be prosecuted as adults in D.C., arguing lawless bands of “youths” attacking innocent Americans are emboldened by Democrats’ soft-on-crime policies.Crime in Washington, D.C.,...

NEW: House Oversight Committee has subpoenaed Robert Mueller to appear for a Sept. 2 deposition to provide details from an FBI investigation of Jeffrey Epstein from decades ago -- even though sources tell me Mueller has been living in a memory-care facility for the past few years

Crime in Washington, D.C., is totally out of control. Local “youths” and gang members, some only 14, 15, and 16-years-old, are randomly attacking, mugging, maiming, and shooting innocent Citizens, at the same time knowing that they will be almost immediately released. They are not afraid of Law Enforcement because they know nothing ever happens to them, but it’s going to happen now! The Law in D.C. must be changed to prosecute these “minors” as adults, and lock them up for a long time, starting at age 14. The most recent victim was beaten mercilessly by local thugs. Washington, D.C., must...

A Democrat congresswoman faced immense criticism for saying she’s a “proud Guatemalan” before she’s an American. “Democrat Rep. Delia Ramirez at a summit in Mexico City this weekend tells the audience while speaking in Spanish: ‘I’m a proud Guatemalan before I’m an American,'” The Blaze wrote. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) shared the footage, adding a quote from Theodore Roosevelt. “There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism...Americanism is a matter of the spirit and of the soul. Our allegiance must be purely to the United States. We must unsparingly condemn any man who holds any other...

Economic dunce-in-chief Paul Krugman knows as much about intellectual consistency as he does about the meaning of “transitory” inflation. His proverbial brain aneurysm to that effect was put on full display during the August 5 edition of PBS’s Amanpour & Company, which also airs on CNN International. Krugman went on a sanctimonious rant against President Donald Trump over his suggestion that the Bureau of Labor Statistics was rigging jobs numbers under former Biden-appointed commissioner Erika McEntarfer, of which FEC records indicate was a Democrat donor. “This is Banana Republic stuff. This is -- I wrote about it, I called it...

VIDEOThe announcement by Attorney General Pam Bondi that she is launching a Russiagate Grand Jury probe has lit a fire of reaction from regular people and independent journalists as you can see. Meanwhile the MSM has mostly avoided any mention of Russiagate the past few weeks. However, such avoidance of a MAJOR news topic will become much harder with the news of the grand jury investigation. It will be very difficult for the MSM to report on this because to do so by sticking to the FACTS would indict their news coverage when RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA! completely dominated their reports....

Apparently, President Trump wants to make sure the details on both wings of the White House are in compliment to each other with the new addition coming.As a result, President Trump climbed onto the roof of the White House to review the overall design elements himself. The journalists noticed him up there and started asking questions. lol.

The beating of two whites by a mob of Blacks after the Cincinnati Jazz Festival was called "justified" by the City's Police Chief Terri Theetge. "Look, the two white individuals provoked the assault," she said. "First, the concert they all attended was a jazz concert. Jazz is Black music--invented by and for Black folks. The white folks were engaging in cultural appropriation by intruding on turf that didn't belong to them." "Second, the beatings were video taped by numerous individuals at the scene," Theetge pointed out. "This intrusion into police business precludes our opportunity to say there that isn't enough...

The Trump administration is reportedly weighing two proposals to remove China from critical U.S. supply chains. One option involves negotiating a rare earth mineral trade deal directly with the Myanmar junta. The other, and potentially more strategic, approach is to bypass the junta entirely and engage with the Kachin Independence Organization (KIO), a powerful ethnic armed group that controls resource-rich territory and has been fighting the junta since it nullified Myanmar’s democratic election and seized power in 2021. Engaging with the junta risks legitimizing a brutal regime responsible for widespread atrocities, including airstrikes and ground assaults on civilians, hospitals, schools,...

Florida police arrested a 13-year-old on Friday who is charged with possessing child pornography and beastiality material after he joined an “online cult” that allegedly targets minors for abuse, according to a local sheriff. The unnamed suspect was charged with four felonies weeks after police received a tip about a group on Discord, a popular gaming platform, encouraging a young girl to harm herself during a “live cut show,” Pasco County Sheriff Chris Nocco said in a Monday press conference. The suspect’s group adheres to “Satanic and neo-Nazi ideology” that has been linked to similar cases in the U.S., and...

The man who recently caught police attention for allegedly abusing his 21 children in the U.S. previously served as a high-level Chinese government official for at least two decades in the region at the heart of the communist nation’s ongoing genocide, according to a Daily Caller News Foundation investigation. In May 2025, police in Arcadia, California, arrested Xuan Guojun, 65, and his wife, Silvia Zhang, 38, for child endangerment after their two-month infant was brought to a hospital suffering from a traumatic head injury, The Associated Press reported. Police reviewed security footage from the couple’s $4 million, 10,000 square-foot mansion...

Republicans in the House Oversight Committee are pushing forward with their investigation into the Jeffrey Epstein case, issuing subpoenas this week to compel testimony from former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

LMAO! President Trump "claimed" he got the most amount of votes in Texas history... ...the CNBC host said "we need to fact check you on that." Then he came back: "So, you DID get the highest number of votes in Texas. So, that's true. Moving on."

The U.S. Navy and the Pentagon are locked in a public struggle over the F/A-XX sixth-generation fighter, a program the DoD moved to defund in favor of the Air Force's F-47. The Navy argues the F/A-XX is essential to overcome the critical range limitations of its current F/A-18 and F-35 air wing, keeping its aircraft carriers viable against long-range Chinese "carrier killer" missiles.

This editor picked up the language-learning app Babbel during a recent sale, and though he'd prefer to learn French, he picked Central American Spanish, figuring if the country is going to be taken over by illegal aliens from Central America, he'd better be prepared. His Spanish isn't good enough to translate this, although it's reported that Democrat Rep. Delia Ramirez told an audience at the second annual Panamerican Congress this weekend that she's a proud Guatemalan before she's an American. VIDEO AT LINK: Democrat Rep. Delia Ramirez at a summit in Mexico City this weekend tells the audience while speaking...

This month, Rep. Joe Wilson (R-S.C.) achieved unique ignobility as the first Member of Congress to be formally admonished for an outburst during a presidential address. Indeed, Wilson’s most memorable words in his entire career will likely be his rebuttal to President Barack Obama: “You lie!— Wilson’s lack of personal control and proper decorum, however, may have a more lasting impact on the speech of his colleagues. House Rules Chairwoman Louise Slaughter (D-N.Y.) is warning Members that they will face punishment if they engage in improper forms of speech. Specifically outlawed are references to any president as a “liar,— “hypocrite,—...
