By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, I hereby direct: Section 1. Background. Federal law provides for the death penalty for criminals found guilty of especially aggravated crimes (18 U.S.C. 3591(a)). Capital punishment is an essential part of how our justice system deters and punishes the most reprehensible crimes that often involve grotesque and lethal violence against innocent Americans. Restoring Federal capital punishment has been a priority for my Administration since its first day under Executive Order 14164 of January 20, 2025 (Restoring the Death Penalty and...

There is no Charlie Kirk equivalent on the left.There is no leftist individual willing to enter the intellectual or philosophical gauntlet of debate and challenge a conservative audience to “come to the front of the line” and convince the audience of their viewpoint.There is no person of leftist ideology capable of advocating their man-made construct against the natural laws that underpin the conservative worldview of a Charlie Kirk audience. Because the only place their ideology can survive is in an arena without challenge.Consider the example of the ‘Law of the Farm’ vs. the ‘Law of the School’. Natural principles vs....

I Meme Therefore I Am 🇺🇸 @ImMeme0 🚨BREAKING: Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg’s office has thrown out charges against Brianna J. Rivers, who was caught on video assaulting pro-life advocate Savannah Craven in April. What began as a felony was reduced to a misdemeanor—and now erased completely. "Brianna J. Rivers was arrested and reportedly charged with felony assault but after an interview with two prosecutors, I was informed that the felony had been downgraded to a misdemeanor." "On July 23, 2025, I find out the prosecution simply allowed this misdemeanor to be dismissed on speedy trial grounds, apparently due to the...

Imminent changes to the U.S. credit scoring system could see millions of Americans face lower credit scores as FICO prepares to incorporate “buy now, pay later” (BNPL) loan data into its calculations this fall. Knewz.com has learned that the move reflects the growing prevalence of BNPL services, which allow consumers to spread out payments with little or no interest, but experts warn that the change may negatively affect users who struggle to make timely payments. BNPL services have surged in popularity, with an estimated 81.5 million Americans using them in 2024 and projections reaching 91.5 million in 2025, according to...

Watch Comey tell lie after lie in this tough cross examination by Ted Cruz, including the lies that have just gotten him indicted. Good news is, Comey gave his evidence from Virginia, so he's being tried in Virginia instead of in swamp infested DC. Virginia is not great buts not as bad as DC.

Well, I feel obliged to post this here because I have now been the victim of fraud three (possibly four) times in the last month. The first and second incidents took place in Dallas at the end of August. I did not know until I looked at my bank statement that my debit card had been used at a Dallas area restaurant. My husband's debit card had been used at a different Dallas area restaurant. We live in San Antonio, so it's not like we were in the Dallas area and forgot that we stopped for bites to eat. My...

In 1964, U.S. minimum wage was $1.25 an hour. That’s 5 quarters, which at the time were made of 90% silver. There was 0.18 oz of silver in each coin. With silver priced at $44/oz today, the melt value of those 5 silver quarters is now $39. So minimum wage in 1964 was equivalent to $39 an hour today, as priced in silver. 1964 would be the last year that U.S. quarters and dimes contained silver. The half-dollar was reduced from 90% silver to 40% from 1964-1970, but even that became untenable eventually. One catalyst that led the government to...

Elon Musk's AI appears to be more ideological than competitorsDespite protest letters, concerns that it's biased and untrustworthy, model tweaks to appease its billionaire boss, and even a past incident where it called itself "MechaHitler," xAI's Grok is still being made available to government agencies for mere pennies. The GSA announced that it has awarded yet another OneGov discount contract on Thursday, this time to Elon Musk's xAI outfit. The agreement will see xAI offer Grok to federal agencies for just $0.42 per agency for a period of 18 months - six months longer than companies like OpenAI, Google,...

Israel should recognise the Falkland Islands as Argentinian after Sir Keir Starmer decided to recognise Palestine, Benjamin Netanyahu’s son has claimed. Yair Netanyahu made the claim on social media just days after the British Prime Minister's announcement sparked fury from Israeli officials. He wrote on social media: "I recognise the Malvinas Islands as part of Argentina!" The statement was met with much praise from supporters of Argentinian President Javier Milei. Agustín Romo, head of President Milei's party bloc in Buenos Aires, thanked Yair, saying : "The son of the Prime Minister of Israel announces he recognizes the Malvinas as Argentine....

UNITED NATIONS — Europe alone is not responsible for helping Ukraine bring an end to its war with Russia, EU top diplomat Kaja Kallas warned Thursday. That is particularly true when considering President Donald Trump’s pledge to halt the fighting, she said in an interview on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly. “He was the one who promised to stop the killing,” Kallas said. “So it can’t be on us.” Her comments come as Ukraine and its allies try to divine the meaning of Trump’s sudden about-face on the war between Kyiv and Moscow. In a Truth Social post...

President Trump will not allow Israel to impose sovereignty over the biblical heartland of Israel. It’s not the West Bank - it’s Judea and Samaria. It’s where Abraham Isaac and Jacob and the stories of most of the Old Testament took place. I am not surprised! The pressure from Saudi Arabia Turkey Qatar Egypt France UK and Canada was too much for him.

Now the system scrambles. We will not stop until every loophole is closed. and a broken system.

Months before a gunman opened fire on an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in Dallas, Texas, this week, Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) called the agency “a terrorist force” and accused agents of being involved in kidnapping. On Wednesday morning, a gunman killed one ICE detainee and injured several others after opening fire on ICE’s Dallas facility. The gunman, according to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, had an anti-ICE “ideological motive” and had even written “ANTI ICE” on one of his shell casings. In July, Jayapal, an influential member of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, called ICE “a terrorist force,” to...
