Apparently, Josh Shapiro thinks forcing workers to give their money to a group in order to work so they can then donate money to the Democratic Party and other Leftist causes is something to brag about. --SNIP-- They all are 'moderate' until they get elected.

This week, a person who was "tired of being trans" opened fire on praying students at the Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Two children were killed and 17 others were wounded. The killer's manifesto complained "gender and weed f**ked up my head. I wish I never tried experimenting with either. Don't let your kids smoke weed or change gender until they are like seventeen." The heinous crime sparked outrage among many public officials. Mayor Jacob Frey (D) warned "the most important thing is that we not blame the 'trans community' for this tragedy." He insisted that "anti-trans hate is...

Full statement from Pam Bondi: President Trump found there was a national emergency and took action under the law by imposing tariffs. The judges of the Federal Circuit are interfering with the President’s vital and constitutionally central role in foreign policy. This decision is wrong and undermines the United States on the world stage. The Justice Department will appeal this decision and continue to fight to restore the president’s lawful authority.

Amid increasingly belligerent Russian rhetoric against NATO, tiny Estonia has assumed the role of David standing up to Goliath. In recent months, Tallinn has intensified its signaling that in the case of an imminent Russian invasion, it would not hesitate to strike first. The world is now seeing the country’s logic. In a September 2024 interview with the Estonian public broadcaster ERR, Estonian General Vahur Karus stated that if Moscow showed signs of preparing for an attack, Estonia would strike the Russians first: “Our capability to neutralize the enemy on its own territory is crucial.” In the subsequent months, Estonia...

There are going to be two major stories in 2026 that we will have full context to understand. Yes, the 2026 midterm politics are going to lead the headlines, but two other issues will have considerable impact.The first, is the FISA (702) reauthorization, and there is a lot that will surface in the next several months likely to upend the best laid plans of the administrative UniParty [Tulsi Factor]. The second, is the USMCA reauthorization – the end of the trilateral trade agreement, and the structural shift into two separate free trade agreements.As to the latter issue, while Mexico and...

Britain, France, and Germany have triggered the so-called snapback mechanism of the 2015 Iran nuclear deal to reinstate UN sanctions against Tehran. The European trio, known as the E3, wrote to the UN Security Council on August 28 to initiate the process, which takes 30 days. In a statement, the E3 foreign ministers said, "We will use the 30-day period to continue engaging with Iran regarding our extension offer or any meaningful diplomatic efforts to restore its compliance with commitments." They emphasized that they "share the fundamental objective that Iran must never seek, acquire, or develop a nuclear weapon." This...

The Epping hotel case was about more than planning law. It was a litmus test for where the loyalties of this Labour government lie. I went to support the peaceful, patriotic protestors in Epping, because I share their concerns about illegal migrants being housed in communities. Starmer’s government, on the other hand, has shown itself to be on the side of illegal migrants who have broken into our county. Yvette Cooper has used taxpayer money – your money – to keep open a hotel housing them. The Government’s lawyers proceeded to argue that accommodating illegal migrants was in the “national...

Age is truly just a number. A 72-year-old man demonstrated remarkable bravery, presence of mind, and physical fitness in rescuing a father and his son from a rip current at Florida’s New Smyrna Beach on Tuesday, according to a local outlet. While riding waves, David “Bean” Coffee, 72, became aware of calls for help and spotted the pair grappling with the powerful current. In an act of bravery, Coffee made two separate trips on his surfboard to save them. Initially, he assisted the son, who had lost his surfboard due to a snapped leash, before circling back to rescue the...

Since 2021, a concerning increase in pilot incapacitations and near-miss incidents has raised alarms among aviation and medical experts, leading to a heated debate over the safety of air travel and the potential link to COVID-19 vaccines. A retired airline captain and immunology specialist, Dr. Kevin Stillwagon, has presented compelling evidence suggesting a correlation between the rise in pilot health issues and the rollout of vaccine mandates. This trend has significant implications for aviation safety and regulatory oversight. Summary of Key Points: -Rise in incapacitations and deaths: Since 2021, there has been a 40 percent increase in early pilot deaths...

This is a video by Jimmy Dore interviewing a woman, Juliette Engel, who describes her involvement in a number of CIA mind control programs. The mind blowing video was prompted by a December 2024 dump of CIA material, a CIA forced release through FOIA. I have previously heard nothing about this CIA dump of a number of well recognized mind control projects like MK-Ultra.

Yesterday, President Trump announced that he and his various campaign groups, including his Super PACs, have raised an unprecedented $1.5 billion dollars for the coming 2026 mid-term elections. This is all part of his campaign strategy to hold both the U.S. House and Senate. Of course, the former chamber, where the GOP currently has a 220 to 215 edge, is the one that is really in danger of flipping. Remember, this strategy includes: 1) push GOP redistricting; 2) minimize retirements; 3) spend big; 4) take primary challengers off the table; 5) raise gobs more money; 6) ramp up recruiting; and...

Laura Loomer @LauraLoomer Ashli Babbitt has been offered a full military funeral with honors by the Trump administration. She was shot and killed by a black police officer inside the US Capitol on J6. 10:30 PM · Aug 28, 2025

JD Vance went the WRONG WAY down a one way street to avoid protesters in Wisconsin. Disgraceful.

Labor Day 2025 Workers Over Billionaires Labor and community are planning more than a barbecue on Labor Day this year because we have to stop the billionaire takeover. Billionaires are stealing from working families, destroying our democracy, and building private armies to attack our towns and cities. Just like any bad boss, the way we stop the takeover is with collective action. We are May Day Strong, working people rising up to stop the billionaire takeover–not just through the ballot box or the courts, but through building a bigger and stronger movement. On September 1st we will continue the movement...

With less than half of its vehicles operational, only one submarine seaworthy, and major equipment modernization programs years away, the CAF remains a “hollow force.” While its presence in places like Latvia is politically valuable, it serves as a “tripwire,” not a sustained, combat-capable contribution to a high-intensity coalition fight.

The state of Iowa will have a chance to upgrade its congressional delegation next year, though the White House understandably wanted to play it safe. CBS reported, Senator Joni Ernst (RINO-IA) will not be seeking reelection to the Senate next year. An official announcement is scheduled for Thursday. Ernst has served in the Senate since 2015. A source told CBS that Ernst had told people close to her that she intends to serve only two terms and will enter the private sector. This news will come as a disappointment to the White House, as President Trump had urged Ernst to...

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey paused before George Floyd's casket at the memorial. He dropped to one knee and began sobbing

VIDEOImagine a White House press conference in the near future. The reporters are fervently raising their hands desperately hoping to be called upon to ask a question. At the podium, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt or perhaps even President Trump points at Olivia Rinaldi of CBS News and says "TAYLOR SWIFT." What does poor Olivia do? Does she correct either Leavitt or President Trump or is she just grateful she got called upon and asks her question? Either way, it is an hilarious way of emphasizing how unserious our news media has become.There is a YUUUUUGE upside to this....

This week, another transgender shoot-up of a Christian school provides more chilling evidence that the culture war is a spiritual war. The Minneapolis shooter’s actions and Democrats’ interpretation of them both demonstrate this. The New York Post published excerpts of the shooter’s journal posted on YouTube that include a drawing of him communing with a Satanic figure in a mirror. As I’ve written before, Satan-worshippers can be startlingly more direct than many Christians about the connections between their spiritual and political beliefs.
