Meanwhile, in Wayne County, Michigan… A 25-year-old hijab-clad Muslima was crowned Miss Wayne County this week – and now she wants to be Miss America. Because nothing says “All-American” more than a Sharia compliant hijab-clad woman. Ameera Hashwi became the first woman to win Miss Wayne County while wearing a Sharia compliant head cover. “Hello, my name is Ameera and my service initiative is to step up and serve and I am your new Miss Wayne County!” the newly crowned beauty pageant winner said to cheers.

Now it's Christianity's turn to be mocked by the Palestinian Authority. While it's PA policy to insult, mock and misrepresent Jewish tradition and Jewish history in the land of Israel whenever possible, this week it was Christian traditions' turn to be insulted and denied by the PA. In the words of the official PA daily columnist, Christian traditions of the Holy Sepulcher and the Holy Grail are "nonsense," because Jesus doesn't belong to Christian tradition but belongs to the Palestinians.

Russia’s PAK DA sixth-generation strategic bomber is more of a “flying fantasy” than a credible future threat. Despite its legendary status and ambitious on-paper specifications, the program is crippled by Russia’s weak industrial base, which has consistently failed to deliver on far less complex projects like the Su-57 fighter.

Politico senior editor Michael Schaffer seems quite irked over Washington, D.C. mayor Muriel Bowser not publicly lambasting President Donald Trump after he ordered the federal takeover of the district's police department to combat the city's crime problem.Schaffer oddly suggests something is wrong with Bowser for not acting more confrontational. You can get a hint of that attitude from the title of his Wednesday article, "Donald Trump Took Over DC’s Police. Why Is the City’s Mayor So Zen?"Cooperation, in the mind of Schaffer, appears to be something that should be replaced by confrontation. Never mind that the goal should be to...

VIDEOYeah, when you try to prove that crime in Washington, D.C. is low by focusing solely on a gentrified neighborhood in Northwest D.C. as this snarky Lib did, it means she is such an expert on generating FAKE NEWS that she should get a job as a reporter at the NBC News4 station in Washington, D.C.. Watch what happened just days after NBC News4 reported the FAKE NEWS about supposedly plunging crime stats in DC. Karma is a bitch but it also can be HILARIOUS as when News4 reporter Ted Oberg got the smug smacked off his face by an...

Hunter Biden dismissed First Lady Melania Trump’s demand for an apology for his statements linking the former super model to Jeffrey Epstein. Hunter’s response, “F*** that! That’s not going to happen.” What a piece of trash.

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL), who led the Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets, told Joe Rogan that the Russian government has agreed to release long-secret KGB intelligence files on Lee Harvey Oswald, documents she claims the CIA destroyed after receiving them at President John F. Kennedy’s funeral.

According to Luna, the KGB conducted its own independent...

During a recent episode of The Benny Show, host Benny Johnson and guest Mike Benz discussed allegations that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and former CIA Director John Brennan engaged in a criminal conspiracy to defraud the American public and intelligence community. Johnson opened the discussion by referencing a recent post from Benz. “You have a post up saying Hillary Clinton is absolutely guilty of a criminal conspiracy to defraud the American taxpayers and intel community and so on. How would that prosecution go? Is that like too much of a pipe dream to even dream to like even...

On Wednesday’s broadcast of NPR’s “All Things Considered,” NPR National Correspondent Frank Langfitt stated that in the Congress Heights area of D.C. some of the people he spoke to told him “crime is worse than the statistics show,” because some “have given up reporting to police because they feel a lot of crimes go unpunished.” Langfitt stated that in the U Street area, people he spoke to “said crime didn’t seem that bad to them.” Langfitt further stated that after talking to people in the U Street area, “I went across the Anacostia River to Congress Heights. This is among...

Assaulting a federal agent is no joke, but nobody, and I mean nobody, should ever show this level of disrespect to a Subway sandwich. [Warning: Language] VIDEO AT LINK....................... That's 37-year-old Sean Charles Dunn, and before this went down on Sunday night he had been shouting down federal agents, calling them the worst name in the book: Fascists. The full video shows several black men laughing as Dunn gets increasingly agitated about the officers' presence. [Warning: More Language] "I did it. I threw a sandwich," Dunn later confessed to D.C. Police. Here's DC US Attorney Jeanine Pirro: Looks like Sean...

DNI Clapper to NSA Director Rogers: “That’s OUR story, and we’re stickin’ to it” Stunning admission that manufacturing intelligence is a “team sport” requiring “compromise on our ‘normal modalities’” WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard declassified a Top Secret email from then-DNI James Clapper exposing his efforts to suppress concerns raised by then-National Security Agency (NSA) Director Mike Rogers regarding the politicized January 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) that President Obama ordered. On December 22, 2016, Rogers wrote an email to Clapper, then-FBI Director James Comey, and then CIA Director John Brennan expressing serious concerns...

FBI Director Kash Patel has uncovered a bombshell memo written in 2017 chronicling the extensive political obstruction that career agents in three cities faced from their own bosses and the Obama Justice Department during the 2016 election as they probed whether Hillary Clinton engaged in a pay-to-play corruption scheme involving her family foundation. "Shut it down!" then-Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates is quoted as demanding in the detailed timeline of political impediments that agents in New York City, Little Rock, Ark., and Washington D.C. reported. The agents tried to get the help of federal prosecutors to determine whether or what...

The proposal would recognize that while Russia cannot continue to push westward, the project for Euro-Atlantic expansion has also run out of steam. It would see the establishment of deconfliction channels, neutral zones, and lines of control that, taken together, would formalize something that resembles spheres of influence, even without naming them as such.

This is one of Rogan's great video interviews of Anna Paulina Luna on far ranging topics, such as inter-dimensional beings, the Arch of the Covenant, JFK's assassination, UFO's, Remote Viewing, CIA, etc., etc. Definitely, worth a listen for a mind expanding experience.

After three years of war, with the commentariat on both sides eagerly predicting the looming collapse of the enemy, it behooves one to develop a prudent aversion to histrionic predictions. However, it seems fairly obvious that the war in Ukraine is at a critical juncture, and August 2025 will receive considerable play in retrospective accounts of the conflict, as perhaps the last opportunity for Ukraine to cut a deal and slither out of its strategic grave. On Friday, August 15, Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin are slated to meet in Alaska to discuss steps to end the war. Whether those...

President Trump’s upcoming summit in Alaska with President Putin will be a defining moment not just in U.S. relations with the Russian Federation, but also for the safety and survival of the world. I do not believe that most Americans fully understand the gravity of the situation. My personal assessment is that if these two leaders cannot reach an agreement this weekend, then the chances increase dramatically that events could spiral out of control, leading to an unthinkable catastrophe. Zelensky appears to be trying to box in President Trump by his trip to Germany to continue funds flow to him...

The common denominator is India’s rivalry with China...Trump recently made a show of doubling his 25% tariffs on India as punishment for its continued purchase of Russian energy and military-technical equipment.Influenced by Lindsey Graham, he expected that India would dump Russia after the costs of doing business with it spiked, the Kremlin would thus lose this important foreign revenue flow, and then Putin would make concessions to Ukraine in exchange for lifting these secondary sanctions in to avoid bankruptcy.Here’s why India defied the US:1. The “Voice Of The Global South” Can’t Bow To US DemandsIndia has presented itself as the...
